mahjonggggg... heh
sorry for the serious lack of updates.. everyday's been like this mad rush.. haha actually not really.. but yah im having a great time.. den thoughts of emigration floods my senseless mind.. but that's not my worry for now..
on friday.. baby, ning ci, mark and me drove up to quad city.. savana IL.. for DRAG RACING! heh.. it's damn fun actualli.. go there see cars.. see them race.. ning ci even raced with his audi tt.. heh i was in baby's baby.. but he din race his car coz baby claimed his car is not good enuff.. heh.. oh well.. din get the chance to sit in a race and get first hand experience.. but watching from the stand is good enuff.. the weather was freezing.. we reached quad city about 1 am.. about 2 1/2 hours drive from chambana.. the whole nite was a blast.. altho i wished that it wouldnt end so soon so baby could have raced ning's car twice.. once with ning and the other time with me inside the car.. but there were too many cars that nite.. so tough luck.. keep your eyes posted on my photoblog for pics.. will be up soon.. i just dun have the time to sit down n downsize my photos.. heh the racing ended bout 4am.. after which the 4 of us tog with 2 of ning's frens went to Denny's for supper/bfast.. one of ning's fren is damn funny lar.. heh was laughing all the time.. n one thing that impressed me.. he make his own parts for his car.. i take my hat off to him..
on a personal note.. to my BABY.. thanks dear for looking after me the whole nite.. the hot chocolate.. the teeshirt altho in the end we din buy it cos there was no xs (yes im an xs in the states.. if pple like candy goes there.. she wun have anithing to buy! haha maybe kids clothes.. *no offence maki!*).. but all those little little things u did for me.. i deeply appreciate.. :) thanks for being just you..
sat: reached back to baby's place at bout 830am.. that poor thing must be damn tired after another 2 hours drive back home.. i tried my best to keep talking to him so that he wun fall asleep.. but talking for 2 hours.. haha not that easy.. n lousy me dozed off 2 times in the car.. argh.. *slaps myself*.. anyhow we had a good good sleep and in the evening we went out for dinner.. caught madagascar after dinner too and i had chocolate milkshake!! heh oh n we went shopping at old navy!!! heh i bot 2 skirts and a top.. v nice.. :) but damage for all 3 total was bout 36.50 USD so convert convert.. i also dunno how much.. maybe 50 plus? actualli ok lar.. but yah den i got daddy 2 polos and a tee for his bdae n father's day.. baby got 2 tees for himself too.. heh shopaholics!!! :) but im so happy.. shop shop shop.. i can just go shopping everyday!!
sun: baby so nicely drove mi to church and attended mass with me.. it's sooo different.. attending service in another place.. it's like everything's so familiar yet unfamiliar..
we drove down to curtis orchard for apple plucking after mass.. but den bad news came.. the apples were not in season yet!! argh!! they'll onli be open in july.. noooooo i wanna pluck apples!!! i wan apples!!!!! but anihow i got to see some small baby apples.. hope i can get to pluck them b4 i return back to singapore.. heh.. so we went to kfc-a&w for lunch.. the stupid counter person screwed up our orders TWICE.. sigh.. but yah.. at least i got to eat a&w after a long long while!! heh.. root beer float!!! so yummyyyy.... but i din get the float though.. just root beer.. and it was divided into draft n the normal root beer.. so you get to decide how much of wad to put.. and it's refillable! heh.. went home after that for a well deserved nap.. heh den we went to cook dinner.. CURRY! helped baby cut the veggies.. while he cut the chicken.. den i cooked rice too but it was a bit too hard.. sigh.. but yah it's damn yummy.. i love it! heh..
baby brought me to jarling's for the best custard cream! it's like ice cream but not quite.. so yummy lar.. haha.. i'll bug him again to bring me there to eat.. :P but i cant eat too much already.. getting fat.. hee
went over to kai bei's place after that..den we played cards (a new game called russian holden i tink.. and also bridge..) and watched nba.. felt a bit weird being in a household where 4 guys stay.. haha it's like i've entered the life of 4 bachelors.. but yah the house was neat and all.. and boy there was damn a lot of alcohol.. heh..
monday: memorial day!!! heh went to Aunt Sonja's for breakfast tog with baby n his frens.. angela, yinyi, serena, jiahao, andrew, melvin, and see wee.. pancakes! heh.. they were so yummy.. :) but so sad aunt sonjas closing down already.. like in 2 hours time.. sob.. oh n the toiles were real cute.. for the ladies the door was labelled aunts and for the guys, uncles.. heh.. went to beckman with baby and read my anelgs and demons as he ran 2 subjects for his experiment.. den we went home to eat the remaining curry.. heh.. slurp.. :) about 9 plus.. kaibei and jermyn came over to sq's place.. den we all crossed the road and walked over to weilik's place for MAHJONG!!! haha.. set up 2 tables.. the other table consisting of rachel, weilik, daniel and dunno-what-his-name-is.. heh.. but yah i had fun.. played one round and went back around 1 plus coz baby had work the next day.. if we played 10-20 cents.. i would have won 2.60.. haha but we converted down to 1-2 penny.. so yah effectively i onli won 26 cents.. not enuff for anithing even.. haha den again it's all in the name of fun :)
tues: baby went to work while i slept in.. and now im at his research place while he's running a subject.. 3 subjects today.. and we're going out after that.. i need to buy earrings.. the stud for my 2nd ear hole fell out.. crap.. i scared it closes!
yeah i promise i'll post up pics when i've downsized them.. they're so much more interesting den my boring account.. hee~

my holiday thus far..
so i finally got myself down to updating this blog.. i bet a lot of you all must be dying to know how loser jennifer is on flying to the usa alone.. haha cried at the departure gates whilst hugging my family.. went thru immigration n bth.. so ran to the toilet to cry... haha after which i composed myself and yeah boarded the plane etc.. everything was good.. loved the jap air stewardess.. so so nice.. managed to watch phantom of the opera and spanglish on board the flight to tokyo..
upon touch down.. i followed the group of americans towards terminal 1 ( i was at terminal 2).. by the time i changed terminal and got my boarding pass.. i had an hour to kill.. so i called baby and mummy.. cry again.. sigh.. dunno why keep breaking down when i hear familar voices.. but just couldnt help it.. had to pretend i was ok when i was actualli quite scared.. thank God nothing happened..
so the flight from tokyo narita to chicago was like 12 hours.. oh man.. and there were no good movies at all!! the best was the notebook which i watched lik 3 times b4.. so i watched it again.. watched in good company too but it was so boring i fell asleep.. the ang mo next to me was very nice.. he talked to me and all.. and 'looked after' me on the way there.. like we went thru customs tog and waited for our luggage tog.. yah v v nice guy.. he's called tim.. an attorney from boston.. den he joked about each time he takes a transit from chicago to boston.. he practically has to run to board the plane.. haha so he came up with "chicago, the city that makes you run".. yeah but im glad i had him for company.. n he tot i was 13.. haha ok maybe coz of my piggy which i brought with me to hug on the plane..
took damn long to get my luggage.. aparently there was some loading prob.. so while the plane landed 30 min earlier.. the wait for the luggage cancelled that out.. came out looking all over for baby when he was just standing right in front of me.. haha blind or wad.. sigh..
he brought me to krispy kremes and cold stones for donuts and ice cream respectively.. den we headed home.. 2 hour car ride back.. n i couldnt wait to shower.. felt so dirty.. heh.. slept earli too coz i was damn tired.. couldnt sleep properly on the plane..
sunday.. went to tuscola.. for weekend sale! heh bought some stuff there.. one of the first few times baby actualli went shopping with me.. coz for me.. i prefer shopping with girls.. most guys have no opinion.. everything looks not bad to them.. haha yah.. but i dun realli have a choice this time round.. :) luckily he was patient enough to shop tog with me.. and even entered somegirly shop with me.. haha quite an eye opener.. :P for me at least..
den he drove me around his campus coz the prev nite when he drove me around campus it was too dark to really see anything.. and we went to steak n shake for dinner.. omg frisco melt and sippable shakes.. heavenly!!! i wanna go there again sometime next week.. heh.. came home n did the housework tog.. i cleaned all his dusty and dirty shelves, cupboard, kitchen and vacuumed his place.. while he washed the dishes.. (yes they've been there for i dunno how long.. eeeuuuww!!)..
went shopping on monday at marketplace.. so many things to see! hollister.. vic secrets.. abercrombie.. just to name a few.. and he got me a cingular cell phone coz my stupid dumb m1 phone cant autoroam.. lousy service somemore got to pay for subscription.. cheat my money! grrrr... so shop shop shop shop again but this time round i din buy anithing.. coz the stuffs there relatively more ex.. baby told me to wait for sale.. if not we could always pop by there b4 we fly back to sg.. oh and i toured the maths dept.. aka my hogwarts castle.. heh nothing spectacular.. but i still love it.. :)
tuesday: did some eyeball tracking expt for baby and got paid $8!! haha easy money but yeah think he had a lot of problem with me.. firstly my eyes too small.. secondly my eyes kept tearing for i dunno wad reason.. den the espt itself.. supposed to ans 2 qns.. the 1st qn i din realli get so yah i just basically stared blankly at the screen.. haha the 2nd was something i did b4 n just couldnt rem the ans.. yes jennifer lam cant think outside the box.. sigh hence i truly believe that in my case.. stupidity comes with age.. sad.. to think i was smarter when i was younger..
had pokey stix for dinner.. yum yum yum yum.. :) tog with hardee's frisco thick burger.. heh den we went to meijer's at nite coz i was craving for orange juice and fruits.. heh ended up with a whole load of junk food too.. garfield's cheese puffs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hee
wed: did another expt for baby... another $8!! haha *money face* baby cooked 2 meals for me.. brunch and dinner.. brunch consisted of my fav braswurst sausage, bacon, more pokey stix... dinner was fried noodles made using spaghetti.. groundbeef mushrooms and broccoli.. :)
thurs: ie today.. baby had to work almost all day long.. but he came back for lunch with me and spent an hour plus with me.. den in the evening we went down to marketplace to get my cell phone up and running and we headed to tang dynasty for dinner with his frens.. according to his fren grace.. it was supposed to be melvin angela and a few others.. well that few others became like 9 pple! haha but not too bad lar.. the food was quite nice.. chinese food.. restaurant style.. din take pictures coz im shy.. haha yeah but his frens all very nice lar.. den they kept discussing about food.. like where is good to eat etc.. whilst we were waiting for food.. wah lau i was so hungry lor.. haha i could almost hear my stomach growl..
so now im back and it's time to do the laundry and accounts with baby.. heh.. n watch heffalump!!! heh.. i finally dled the whole movie! happiness or wad! *grin grin smile smile*
yes somehow i still feel like a small kid who doesnt wanna grow up.. maybe it's just me seeking attention love and care.. or maybe im just not ready to face the real world...

ok it's 2am and im not planning to sleep.. im getting butterflies in my tummy! yes jennifer's one big chicken.. *cluck cluck*.. but having to be alone for 22 hours on the plane.. n transiting in japan for 3 hours is no joke.. at least not to be.. *sings lonely.. im so lonely.. i have nobody on my own...* thus im planning to max myself out so i can concuss on the plane tmr.. and yes as reminded countless times by my family.. no alcohol on the plane.. haha *thinks back on the time i got high on the plane from bangkok back to sg.. hahaha* ok *unglam..*
so all my bags are packed and im ready to go.. eager to touch down safely at chicago but not that eager on being alone.. damn.. im such a people person.. i have 3 hours to look for the next terminal n i dun tink im that bimbo that i cant find it.. haha
im fully equipped with my discman, my book, my sunglasses, my piggy (yes lar im a big baby can..) to keep me occupied the whole flight thru.. haha kiasu kiasu kiasu.. hoping to catch coach carter on board.. or ani other nice shows.. thank god i onli watch 2 movies ever since goodness knows when..
speaking of which.. go catch ... STARWARS ep III.. damn good lar! i'll give it 4.5/5!!!! haha great effects.. ewan mcgregor is still as cute.. not a fan of hayden christensen.. natalie portman looks the best when she's dead.. but best of all.. mi n shuya were laughing at r2-d2 and yoda.. haha so damn cute n funny!!!! i wan a light sabre myself!!!! *vee-um vee-um* heh
after the movie we were all speaking like yoda.. "pass the ketchup you shall" or "keep quiet you should".. you get the gist.. chilling out at east coast with my cedar gurlies after dinner at nydc and star wars was just the perfect way to end my nite.. thursday's such a happy happy day.. met up with dawn for coffee.. watched star wars (keeping to my cedar gurlies tradition of catching all the star wars episodes tog..).. had mushroom madness at nydc.. nice relaxing chat at east coast.. den the nite spin with jo.. haha i just love cruising down the streets at nite.. lesser cars.. cool breeze..
brought her to ecp that oh-so-famous carpark but there was negligible action last nite.. haha tried driving into the lanes of geylang to show her *ahem* but im lousy lar.. i dunno which lane to go.. haha in the end just anyhow drive a bit den went home.. jo stayed over.. *hugs* heh..
today.. went to get my international driving permit.. saw the doctor for medicine.. lunch with mummy at marche.. dinner with family at some jap restaurant.. mahjong with family.. n packed my bags.. so i guess i can say im all set n ready to go.. met up with all the frens i wanna meet.. spent family time tog.. more tmr morn.. i hope neither mi nor my mummy cries tmr.. as it is i noe they're damn worried for me.. mummy keeps nagging about whether i've finished packing.. even told my family doctor she's not at ease still.. heh *touched*
oh one more thing.. pls dun call my hp unless it's realli damn urgent.. n it's a matter of life n death.. super ex ok the auto roaming.. u all can still sms me.. :) n of coz msn + webcam! heh..
alright this is enuff to stop u all from missing me for the 24 hours that im gone from the cyber world.. haha bhb or wad?!!! but i'll realli miss u guys.. esp blast pple.. dunno how im gonna catch up with the steps.. but i should be able to esp now with rozzno's vidz.. haha so funky! i wanna be the featured dancer when i come back!! *chop* already.. ok? heh..

many little things on my mind...
sunday: family day.. had lunch tog with mummy n grandma.. mahjong-ed the afternoon away.. n i won 43 bucks! heh.. happiness or wad.. more spending money.. :) sent grandma home den watched tv n lepaked the rest of the ntie away...
mon: PICNIC with laopo n laogong! haha.. so fun.. a nice relaxing therapeutic day at east coast.. i like~ one new thing i wanna do with someone when i come back from the states next month.. heh.. i prepared egg mayo sandwiches.. laopo cooked fried rice.. (not bad for a 1st timer.. hee~ two thumbs up!).. also fried nuggets , laogong brought fried sweet potato, nuts n jelly.. lots n lots of jelly.. did i miss out anithing? heh in the end we couldnt finish the food so brought back.. haha.. :P took a total of 92 photos! but a lot were candid fugly shots.. heh.. but i had a lot of fun.. it's been a while since i went to the beach n just stared into the vast sea.. (den i rem trying to drag
you into the sea the first time we went to the beach..)
tues: job interview at esplanade as an usher.. waited 2 bloody hours for a short less den 5 min interview.. speaking of which.. the qns asked took me by surprise.. yah they weren't say that difficult... but just different.. aniwae.. thanks mich.. haha luckily we have each other for company.. if not it'll be a lonely 2 hour wait.. saw mani prens there.. ex vj classmate sean.. whom told me zy also went for the interview.. haha wait if all of us get thru.. we'll be working tog! weird or wad!? haha.. nus pple like clara, sylvia, nic, lee ying n a few hi-by-go-n-die prens whom i sadly forgot their names.. *oopz*.. ok im a bad pren..
went shopping with mich after that.. n i splurged on 2 books.. Dan Brown's Angels and Demons AND the Da Vinci code.. haha figured now's the best time to jump on the bandwagon n start reading these 2 books to find out wad exactly is so great bout them..
den we walked over to this little shop n i finally tried on that dress which i've been eyeing for goodness-knows-when.. everytime on 36 will pass by the shop n beo the dress n todae.. i went to try it.. it's PERFECT! n yes it had to cost 268 bucks?! like wth.. for a dress like that.. no way!! but i love it a lot a lot lar.. heh.. love it in baby blue or white.. so pretty!!! :)
so that's a dress i'll never own.. even though it's a perfect fit.. damn..
somehow a lot of things on my mind right now.. but i cant exactly pinpoint which is the main problem.. it's just bothering n irritating me.. i guess im just tired.. looking forward to sat morn.. yet on the other hand not realli willing to spend 20 over hours alone on the plane.. it's just a sacrifice for the greater good.. haha nonsense lar.. im so damn excited in a sense im feeling a lil lost.. irony or wad...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABES!!!!! *hugs n love*gang dinner tonite.. :) finally~ haha look at all the catching up i have to do after the exams.. haha but it's not like im complaining~ :P shopping shopping shopping! hee~
on a more serious note..due to the recent spate of events.. it got me into thinking.. TRUST.. 5 letters yet it means so much.. i definitely believe that trust is the key factor in any relationship.. after being with a certain person for some time.. be it frens or steads.. you yourself should know that person's character n integrity.. so whatever it is.. LISTEN.. hear out the other party's point of view and do some thinking.. assess the situation for yourself.. argh.. damn it.. im honestly quite irritated with the opp sex.. (ok im offending 1/2 the pple who are reading this right now..) but i really cant stand the way guys treat my frens~!!! totally.. NO respect! sigh really quite pissed off after listening to some stuff lar.. so yah to prevent me from getting even more pissed n disappointed.. and to prevent the opp sex from being offended... i shall leave it as it is.. im sure many of you all know what this issue is about.. and if u dun.. dun bother figuring out..
time to go to the maid agency with mummy to scout for a new hopefully honest, non psychotic maid..

The Keys to Your Heart
|
You are attracted to obedience and warmth. |
In love, you feel the most alive when things are straight-forward, and you're told that you're loved. |
You'd like to your lover to think you are loyal and faithful... that you'll never change. |
You would be forced to break up with someone who was emotional, moody, and difficult to please. |
Your ideal relationship is comforting. You crave a relationship where you always feel warmth and love. |
Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment. |
You think of marriage as something precious. You'll treasure marriage and treat it as sacred. |
In this moment, you think of love as commitment. Love only works when both people are totally devoted. |

heh was rummaging thru my imagestation website when i found
these.. brings back the good old veejay days.. n those super fun times with jo.. zaoing class n all.. haha oopz.. ok that's not supposed to be good.. anyway.. in a span of 2 or 3 yrs.. we've aged! *gasp* scary rite..
went to my godma's place for BBQ just now! yummy! :) was talking to my cuzzie who just entered ns.. last last fri to be exact.. n he was like asking me if i just entered uni.. when the words.. "nope.. im actually ending my 2nd year.." i suddenly felt damn old.. the youngest of his friends was onli sec 3! wth.. sob.. im so old... boohoo..
rite.. haha im not even 21! :P
the bbq gathering was great.. chit chat n all.. kana teased a bit here n there.. caught up with my cuzzies who are both entering uni this yr.. the guy's my age.. n his sis who's 2 yrs younger.. how fast time flies.. heh still rem when i was young i used to fight with him.. n we would be compared against everything n anything.. results, height.. whatever.. yah of coz i always win.. haha :P
MY MAID IS PSYCHOTIC! seriously.. she has this crazy attitude that we're trying to harm her!! she thinks my webcam and the vcr is there to record n make sure she does her work.. she thinks that the camera in the lift is connected to my parent's room teevee.. she thinks we put poison in her food when we all eat the same food.. moreover is she cook one! omg.. 2nd time already.. the first time she wanted to go back.. den the next day she apologised to us.. ask us to give her a chance.. so we did.. and now this?! omg.. unbelievable.. she even thinks we hired some indian guy to call our house to supervise her.. and that he is lurking around in the vicinity so when she washes the car or wad.. he will come n see.. wth! out-of-the-world or wad! i mean seriously.. we're such nice pple! and we dun have so much time, money and effort to do all this! sigh im downright disappointed.. i mean seriously.. that basic human trust is gone.. sad to say we have to let her go.. she wants a transfer so we'll try to get her one.. what's wrong with maids nowadays?! -double sigh-
oh well.. becoz of that the family decided aginst playing mahjong tonite.. otherwise it'll be 4 nites in a row! haha sunday took over from korkor who was on a losing streak and managed to recoup his losses and be the big winner.. haha that was my lucky weekend!!! made 100 bucks by playing 20-40 cents onli.. damn should have raised the stakes.. haha oh well.. it's all in the name of fun.. :)
anyhow im going to bed.. it's already tuesday and im not a bit worried for my final paper on friday.. realli feel like hecking it.. but i cant.. it's a core mod!! sob..

DREAMS..lately i've been having so many dreams.. everynite.. every nap i take.. it's scary.. and these dreams are out of the world.. about things that happened in the past.. mixed up with the present.. things that are going to happen in the near future.. dreams with all my frens knowing each other.. adventure dreams.. weird dreams whereby different parts of NUS are connected to some event area.. some shopping center and even a club.. i even dreamt about funerals.. and the people involved.. i shall not mention..
guess the best dream out of all these nonsensical dreams was the one i had this morning.. soaking in the bathtub.. with bath salts.. rose petals and candles.. heh.. such a relaxing peaceful dream until mummy woke me up to go to church.. even dreamt i was being chased by police n was saved by my vj classmate (fyi: i haven spoken to him for like ages!) it's just weird how i start remembering all my dreams only recently.. in the past i'll just dream nitely and forget bout it by the time i wake up n brush my teeth.. but lately.. my dreams have become more real.. more intriguing..
so what do dreams actually mean? some people believe it's actually your subconscious mind at work.. some people just pass it off as nothing.. some even say those people who dream are psychic.. I feel that every dream is connected with your own "reality".. each dream is unique and from Webster's dictionary, Dreams are defined as a sequence of sensations, images, thoughts, etc., passing through a sleeping person's mind.
From some dream website.. "Sometimes, dreams can be understood in the the context of repressed thoughts. Dreaming serves as an outlet for those thoughts and impulses we repress during the day. When we go to sleep at night and slip into our dream state, we feel liberated and behave and act in a manner that we do not allow ourselves in our waking life."
so basically im thinking now.. if what i dreamt really represented how i really feel.. den im one big messed up person.. coz everything in the dream is illogical and out-of-the-world.. have a feeling i might be experiencing deja vu soon.. like within the next 2 months.. but we shall see.. speaking about dreaming.. i tink about descartes and his meditations.. maybe he 'influenced' me? den again maybe not.. "i think therefore i am".. brings back sweet old feelow memories..
any dream analysts around?? i think i need help.. out of all the dreams.. im most affected by the funeral one.. sigh.. thankfully so far whatever happened in my dreams are all the reverse in reality.. so yah.. that's the only hope i can cling on to..
im a lil afraid of sleeping now coz of the dreams i'll prob have later.. does dreaming make you tired? i really wonder.. heh imagines.. teacher asks student: "student, why you look so tired and listless?" Student replies, " oh sorry teacher.. i was busy dreaming last nite.." ok not funny.
on another note.. i long for the day someone will sing this song to me and mean it with all his heart and soul.. it's such a simple yet sweet n genuine song..
It's all about you (it's all about you)It's all about you babyIt's all about you (it's all about you)It's all about youYesterday you asked me something I thought you knewSo I told you with a smile, it's all about youThen you whispered in my ear and you told me tooSaid you make my life worthwhile, it's all about youAnd I would answer all your wishes If you ask me toBut if you deny me one of your kisses Don't know what I'd doSo hold me close and say three words like you used to doDancing on the kitchen tiles, it's all about youYes you make my life worthwhileSo I told you with a smile It's all about youIt's all about you It's all about you baby
