Off to POLAND!!!!!

WHEEEEEE!! Hahaha! Honestly I'm not as excited as I thought I would be, although the excitement is building up..... :D It's about 6 more hours to departure, yayyyy! I will be going to Poland with NUSCO for a competition from 28th to 3rd July, and from 4th June onwards we'll be touring in Salzburg in Czech Republic and Vienna in Austria. Will be coming back on the 10th July!

Haha I wanted to do a proper post, but I keep remembering of things to do and pack, keep rushing off. Hoho shall keep this short! Really hope that we can win something back; representing Singapore, representing NUS. :) I'm sure all of us will do our best there, so..just hoping for the best!!! This is my first time going Europe, my first time going overseas for a competition, my first time travelling so loooong on a plane (with no inflight entertainment OMG) ....countless first times! Hehe :)

Will be back real soon! Take care everyone reading this!!! :)

Wheee! Finally an update! Haha.. Actually it's not that I don't have time, but there just doesn't seem anything worth talking about. Life has been super UNhappening!!!! Except for occasionally going out, going for CO pracs, watching SS501 vids on youtube(!!!!!!!!!), there's really nothing much going on. I've been trying to get tuition assignments since the beginning of this month, but till now there's NOTHING!!!! A R G H. The countless times I emailed and sms-ed. :( I was thisssssss close to getting an assignment yesterday; the kid stays in my neighbourhood, a different block from mine, just a few mins walk away. Everything was going fine, and the agent was about to give me the address of the kid, until I told her I'll be away from Singapore and I'll miss 2 weeks of lessons. Her tone immediately changed, and she just said "I'll call you back again". I KNEW, she wouldn't call back. Sigh. A wonderful opportunity wasted!!! I really wanted a tuition assignment near my house, so it'll be very convenient when I travel to teach. Oh well, I can evilly pray that no one will take the assignment, so that when I'm back from Poland I can start tuitioning the kid. HA riiiight.

I have been trying to find volunteer work to do too. Have given up the thought of searching for a job. It's soooo hard to find, and my schedule doesn't seem too good too. I never expected, it's not easy to find voluntary work too!!!! Gosh. I called 3 organizations; 1 follows normal school cirriculum, which means that the students are not in school during holidays too so they do not need volunteers. The 2nd organization I called, the children are usually brought out by corporates, and I guess these corporates have events lined up for them, so similarly, they do need need volunteers. The 3rd organization that I called sounded quite friendly, and the person-in-charge asked me to email her so she can liase with me. After days of waiting for her reply, I finally got it today! Haha! And yayness, I can go down during the month of July! Will be helping the P6 children everyday from 2-6, which means tutoring them I suppose. This is my first time finding voluntary work on my own, and going down on my own! *clap clap* HAHAHA it's nothing much but I still feel quite happy with myself hehehe :P I've always been interested to work with young kids, so when I was looking for volunteer work I checked out those that are helping this group. I guess this is a good form of exposure and experience, and I can do something to help children in need! Probably not very much, but I do hope I can achieve something by putting in my bit of effort! :)

The one sad thing is that I wouldn't have any holiday income, sigh. :( Instead I'm spending so much more..AHHHHH well.. But thinking on the bright side, at least i'm not going to continue to waste my holidays! haha. Always look on the bright side of life(hums the adidas or nike?? tune)..

ok I am off to watch SS501 vids on youtube! muahaha! They are really really cute and they sing very well!!!! Hahaha! Nites!

new blogskin!

I finally changed my blogskin!! I like it alot, cos it has a cheerful look to it. :) Was looking for something cheerful, so it can brighten up one's mood after looking even if it's just by a teeny weeny bit. hehe. BUT! It only plays my blog song if you click on the "others" page, which I don't like. I prefer the song to play once I get onto the page. I know some will just shut off the music, which I do sometimes too if the song is one that I don't fancy. But I love the effect of having the song that I like being played in the background while reading my blogposts, it feels so...personalised. Haha.. And I've ever fallen in love with a song which I heard on a random person's blog. Hmm so..I'll probably change this layout again, but not for the moment i guess. I realise it takes quite a bit of time to choose a design that I like, upload it into blogger, then change the details to my own. Have never been good at such IT stuffs, so it's really quite agonising doing all these nitty gritty details!

It's been sweltering hot these days!!! arghhh, make me feel so warm and sticky and uncomfortable. Drink more water, people! Haha :)

Have been listening to this Korean song called "Nobody" by a group called Wonder girls. Got hooked on it after watching Kim Hyun Joong(Ji Hoo sun-bae in BOF) dance it. Haha! I think the previous sentence probably wouldn't make a lot of sense to alot of you, but I know some would get what I'm saying right! haha :) do listen to this catchy and cute song! It's a big hit in Korea I think. Fast forward to 2 mins for the actual song, the front part of the mv is a little draggy...




I want to learn the dance!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
