SP BP Mentoring Christmas party + potluck + gift exchange

Ho ho ho!

Firstly, I want to wish everyone a 

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVE!!!!

I'm afraid I can't wish you the actual holiday.. Or maybe I can? 

I hope you enjoy your festive holiday! (Did I mention Christmas is my 2nd favourite holiday?)

Are you working? Partying? Staying at home? Whatever is it, just go all out!! It's the season of giving ^-^

'Cept if you're working.. Well, double pay, isn't it? xP

Yup, as you can guess from the title, I had my 2nd prezzie exchange (holy shit 'prezzie' is a word) this month. 

--------------------------------------CUT------------------------------------------

I realise I didn't blog about my 1st gift exchange. Okay I'll make a really brief description of it.

It was with my fellow nail fanatics. (I did I have mentioned before but can't remember where..)  

We meet up for a present exchange & went to visit nail shops.

Of course, there are pictures!

The rest decided to have same nails but I did my own design!

Thank you Secret Santa!

I got 2 nail polishes, a set of nail polishes (3) & a set of nail brushes! Thank you again! xP

--------------------------------------CUT------------------------------------------

The event is held in Siloso Beach, Sentosa. I met with Aishah before heading there ^-^ 

For potluck I brought Redondo Wafer Sticks Strawberry. But sadly, no one touched it..

The entrance fee to the beach increased from $3 to $4!! But lucky for me I have my Islander Card (teehee)

Also, we're lucky to bumped into Kenneth & Jian Peng (or Ping) & Kenneth led us to the spot. 

It's the exact same spot where I had my Halloween rehearsal! 

Okay I'm gon' rave about this cookie! It is very tasty & CHEWY!!!
It was baked by Huili & Erra. Yumyumz!! 

Prezzies on the left, food on the right!

I only ate junk food and small bites even though there was curry and bee hoon. (See my lonely Redondo over there? T-T)

Cut to the chase, the girls & I strolled on the sandy beach because we dunno how to integrate ourselves into the games... But after awhile only I joined the Frisbee game because I wanna play!

A random quail

Ey ey~~

Jill's home-made sandwich!

Hehehehe

Javier (the brightest guy) looked at all cameras xD

What is 1 thing that you must do in a beach? 

Other than ogling at bikini babes and suntan, there's something else.. 

The suay ones got buried!!

If you look closely, you say see boobs and a boner.

Elton got kicked by sand, fed by sand, and he becomes the sand. 

And the end product?

Ladies & gentlemen:

While playing Frisbee, I spotted this guy:

Wonder what is he doing...

Oh? It seemed to form words??

SP BP MENTORING FTW!!≧◉◡◉≦

It was a whole load of fun!! 

I kept laughing and running and more laughing!

Then we had a game of Captain's Ball. 

There was 1 time when another girl & I caught the the ball at the same time, but being girls, we didn't give way. (Like, hell no bitch, I'm getting the ball. (Okay this is even wrong))

I crawled over her but she won't give up! Damn she strong. 

But in the end it was the other team's ball. 

TO YOU: NO HARD FEELINGS YA!

The Captain's Ball was really awesome; my energy was depleted not because I was running, but because I was chasing & LAUGHING AT THE SAME TIME.

I was K.O.ed by the start of 2nd round.

I didn't joined the 2nd game, which was Human Foosball. Because I followed Jill to the washroom & got my body washed up. So I don't wanna enter the sand again :T

That was the last game, then it was time for prezzies!!

Was excited for mine though!

I got to know who was my Secret Santa because someone told me xP

Thank you, Secret Santa! The gifts were useful to me ^-^

After that.. it's camwhore session.

The thing with this club right, we have sharp eyes. 

No no no, in fact, we can SMELL a camera 5 feet away. 

Say the camera was meant to take a picture of 2 persons, but the outcome will be 7 or more. 

Really, it's a gift.

It has started.

Soon.

Seen the transition?
1. Me taking a photo of people taking a photo
2. *Snap* Saw my camera, came running.
3. Done.

Now, what did I say? ;)

There were a LOT MORE.
Because I was running to cameras too. It was so hilarious seeing human running one 1 place to another.
We don't even care whose camera was it. Stop talking, start snapping.

I left early because I had dinner at home.. Sorry for not staying to pack the place.. :(
I want to thank the committee for planning this fantastic and marvelous X'mas party in Sentosa!
Everything was fun, the people were funny, the food is good.
I ♥ MENTORING FAMILY 

This might be the last event of the month (so far), till then!

What games taught me in life.

Hey guys!
Pardon for the lack of updates because I'm cooped with group projects & my tests are drawing nearer.
What to do? I have so many people whom I know telling me that poly is 'slack', 'bomb anyhow still can pass', 'poly slack one' and out of all, most of them said this: 'POLY PLAY ONE LAH.'
Maybe my course is not really what they describe because as I advance I will be bombarded with mountains of projects and events to be planned.
But I like it actually.
I like planning big events (the reason why I chose this course because I imagined organising high-end events such as F1 Race & concerts, which we MIGHT plan F1 race), I learn Law & I enjoy General Education class.
But I don't like the fact that we have so many group tutorials & projects that almost everyday we have to stay back to complete it.
Most of the times for tutorials, we'll just split the questions so it's easier. I dislike this method because each of us only learn the questions we are asked & neglect the other questions in the tutorials.
On the other hand, the whole of us discuss each questions it is WAY TOO time consuming.

Okay, I get off-track very easily because when I talk about 1 thing, I link to many other topics.
That is why I am good at chatting with my gang ^-^ 

Well, I thought of this entry while I was sleeping.
Funny how my right brain always swell & ignite during the dark.
I thought for every long, hopefully I remember what I was thinking back then.

I wouldn't call myself a gamer. I just like to game, but I am not hardcore enough to be labelled as a 'gamer'.
I play many games console like PS2, PSP, DS, Gameboy Advance.
But the consoles are my brother's, except for PS2 - my brothers & I pooled in money to purchase the baby and the Gameboy Advance I always use my childhood's friend to play.
Now, it's just lay there collecting dust :(
Okay enough. What I am going to describe is ENTIRELY what I feel. I did not Google or whatsoever. :)

Here goes.

Diablo III

Credits

To be honest, my brother & younger brother are the ones who introduce gaming to me.
Especially my bro, he influenced my little brother & me hahaha.
My brother bought the game, so I tried out the demo. I like it!
It's a RPG, Action, Adventure and Hack & Slash game. I love it instantly.
I think it's mainly because it is RPG & it goes in Acts (Adventure).
I like killing monsters as compared to players because I like to see how scary & disgusting & creative the monster is. Especially when it comes to elites & bosses. Weew!
I also like it when there's a story line, it attracts me very much.

The moral of this game is that,

• You need money to upgrade yourself
• You gotta train yourself and put in effort for that money
• When you're 'dead', you gotta 'revive' yourself & kill that mother f*cker who brought you down

It's not always becoming the best, because there is always someone out there better than you.
And this applies to yourself too. You are better in something than the rest, even if the skill/knowledge/whatever you're good at, not many people has it.
If you don't like something about yourself, be it your attitude or appearance of habits, spent money to improve yourself.
Attitude might not need money to adjust but the main point here is: improve what you detest.

Pokemon and 

Credit

Credit

I bet many of you have played this at least once or watched the show or buy the book.
My brother is crazy about Pokemon & Digimon back in the years.
It's so much of our childhood. It's so nostalgic.
I know my brother bought the Pokemon books, where you have to find the Pokemons in the picture.
I wonder where is it now...
There is also this Digimon movie. It's so awesome that my brother probably watched it a hundredth time.

You must have guess what both of them taught us:

• True friends click almost immediately when you first met
• Good 'pokemon' & 'digimon' are hard to find
• Friends come and go, few stay with you
• Best friends are always there for you
• It's inevitable friends will part ways, memories will not

Have you found your true friends?
Best friends may not be a true friend, a true friend may not be a best friend.
'What logic is this?', you may ask. Just ponder for a while.
Scan your social circle to see if you have made some discoveries ^-^.

Mario

Credit

Credit

One of my favourite game of all time. I like it because it is a platform game.
I like using the arrows keys and space bar.
Mario also adds shooting the fireballs hahaha.

It's more than saving Princess Peach, because:

• When you get hurt, you either get nothing or something that benefits you, so you gotta try every opportunities you chance upon and give it a try
• You can be at your highest point in life, but because life's a bitch, you'll be kicked down from the top (refer to my bio) (Mushroom to flower, touch a mob & you shrink)
• You gain money as you progress as well as useful items/tricks/knowledge
• You might reached you goal after a long fight, but the target is still a long way to go. The only way is to PERSEVERE & have the DETERMINATION to achieve your ULTIMATE GOAL. This way, your efforts won't be washed down the drain if you quit halfway
• There will always SOMETHING or SOMEONE stopping you from reaching your final goal but you either AVOID them or KNOCK THEM DOWN


I find that Mario has many hidden messages about reality.
Don't give up on what you are doing. Unless you think it is pointless & does not benefit you.
Are you ready to succeed?

Maplestory

Credit

I think Maplestory is my first online game that needs to be downloaded (my 1st online game was Habbo Hotel LOL).
I got addicted. Yes. I use real money to buy fake money in order to make my character become attractive and stronger.
I spent hours in front of the screen to fight mobs and do Party Quests. It was enjoyable, I would want to go back to Maple but so many have changed and added.
Back when I started Maple there was only 2 worlds - Aquila & Bootes.
You can say I'm the second generation of the game? I dunno hahaha.

This big-headed, small-bodied game made me realise:

• Everyone in this world has their good points and therefore
• When the members of the 'party' work together, it can achieve great results (E.g. Cleric responsible to heal party members, Swordman to provide Iron Shield, etc)
• Quality items does not come cheap
• There are opportunities for all if you look closely. Some give you handsome rewards, some give you things you already have.

Group work/projects can really benefit everyone if you got the right person doing the right job.
Just like forming a band: you can't have all play guitars and none of them can sing or play the drums right?
2 brains are better than 1. :)

So, these are what I think about games. What do you think?
Gaming has always been a part of my life. It helps me to distress.
It gives me entertainment too. It makes me think. It makes me smarter. It makes me agile. It makes me practical.
Personally, I think games has more advantages than disadvantages to a person.
Of course, that's if you did not cross the obsession-line or an addict that does not go out of your room for days.

My favourite game genre, like, really LOVE it, is rhythmic.
Like DJ Max, DDR, Pump Pro, Audition, Rhythm Paradise, O2 Jam and more.
I am gonna boast but, I think I am really good at these kind of games.
I strive for perfection when playing these games, because I think these are my type xD
Maybe it's the easiest out of all that's why it's my favourite, or because I'm good at it.
Or probably because it's both :)
I want to be expose to more of rhythmic games. any intro?
Talking about this, I should go check out my Sims 3. Time to be god.


What do all games have in common? Every after fight, you gain experience & wisdom.

Welcoming 2013

Hey guys.
A very belated Happy New Year shout out to you:
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Well, starting of the new year isn't very much of a happiness to me.
My countdown for this year was not the same as the previous years - due to missing people.
My gang & I didn't went to the park and play because it was raining, darn the rain.
But as usual, we had our which is McDonald's Double Chocolate, but only the girls & I drank it, so it's again, not the same.
My first meal was also from Mac's, because I was starving when I reached home and I can't sleep with a growling stomach.
So overall, this year's countdown is not very memorable; we don't even have a group picture. Heck, how to have a group because if not everyone was there?

Yesterday night I came home from my class chalet.
It was in Changi, but the chalet was very far from Changi Village.
After we settle down inside, we played Xbox Kinect & watch some movies.
Damn, the movies we watched are from Rahim's hard disk, and ALL the movies we watched have crude humour or nudity scenes.
It was kinda awkward and a little offensive to me..
I like & !
The activities we did were either playing xbox, watching movies, or playing decks: Blackjack, Daiti, Stress, Uno, Bluff..
It was very fun! Especially playing with Alfian & Syafiq! xD
We played Uno's Stacko too! It's like Jenga but Uno style.
The highest tower we built was 26 layers!! Beat that! xD

Of all the happenings during chalet, the highlight of the chalet was:

ALFIAN STUCK IN THE TOILET.

Well, it first started with banging on the toilet door.
At first most of us thought that the guys were playing so we didn't bother much.
I think many people were walking past the toilet as Fian was banging on the door.
Then it started to get annoying.
So I went to the toilet and said, 'Who's there?'
'Ah.. Alfiian. I am stuck in the toilet!'
Then I was chuckling in front of them, then I was shocked and asked the rest for help.
Everybody crowd outside the toilet.
Ryan & Rahim tried to break open the door by kicking or by using the fire fighters method, meanwhile Wafir got his camcorder rolling.

It was a f*cking hilarious situation, with all the funny comments coming out from the jokers.
In the end Darlene called for help & the repairman came, but it was no help.
He did manged to remove the door knob, but left afterwards to get his colleague to help.
While he was gone, Ryan managed to open the door & we can finally see Alfian!!!
Ryan was like cheering loudly for himself because 'he's the man' or so he claimed.
It was a shock-worried-laughing situation; we could see Alfian from the kitchen window as he popped his head out of the toilet window.
Ahh... at least something major AND funny happened. :'D

I went home after BBQ night, together with Eve.
But I cabbed home with Zul because he's my neighbour! Same block!
So it was extremely convenient & we're lucky to hail a cab seconds after we left the chalet.
The ride took us 30 minutes! It was fast!
I wouldn't wanna take the long bus ride home - I f*cking dread the drive-stop-drive-stop or even worse: packed bus.
Thank God I shared a taxi with Zul :)

I'll be getting my results something next week, I am very anxious!
Will update soon!
