the fab 5's blog is almost dead. so i thought i'd revive it for a bit. if only to see the "last entry" date finally jump.

nothing spesh, just getting on with our own busy lives, i suppose. mine's not that busy. it's just that i'm lazy.

it's that time of the term again, when people feel down again.

but me, i'm happy.. COS I'VE JUST WATCHED FULHAM BEAT CHELSEA 1-0! go boa morte!


I am thinking it's a sign
That the freckles in our eyes
Are mirror images
And when we kiss they're perfectly aligned
And I have to speculate
That God Himself did make
Us into corresponding shapes
Like puzzle pieces from the clay
And true it may seem like a stretch
But it's thoughts like this that catch
My troubled head when you're away
When I am missing you to death
When you are out there on the road
For several weeks of shows
And when you scan the radio
I hope this song will guide you home

They will see us waving from such great heights
"Come down now" they'll say
But everything looks perfect from far away
"Come down now" but we'll stay

I've tried my best to leave
This all on your machine
But the persistent beat
It sounded thin upon listening
And that frankly will not fly
You'll hear the shrillest highs
And lowest lows with the windows down
When this is guiding you home

They will see us waving from such great heights
"Come down now" they'll say
But everything looks perfect from far away
"Come down now" but we'll stay


"Such Great Heights" ~ The Postal Service

HI EVERYONE!! new york was freaking cool. will post up some picts in a jiffy. initially it was freezing cold, then the weather turned better later and i enjoyed visiting all the iconic places in nyc. been to almost every place in manhattan. company visits were fantastic too. Bloomberg was the best companies i visited in terms of environment, the pantry is like a cafe!!

I miss all of you too, and jh, good thing u cancelled the krispe kreme, cos i really brought back some and it didn't taste really good... and plus the fact that i'll probably meet you guys at a later date, i won't want to poison you.

Yes, time to revert back to local culture. Kopi see kosong!

ok i'm here to revive this blog of ours...

firstly, hi everyone, hope everyone's enjoying their hols without scary things like projects and quizzes and horror of horrors, profs.

secondly, we shd go catch a movie. just like the good old times of that salahuddin show which i cant rem the title but i do rem the uninspiring line of "let them come!" and edmund (or is it ray)'s idea of throwing bak kwa and kway chap at them. anyone wanna watch pride and prejudice, perhaps love (it has takeshi kaneshiro!!) or chronicles of narnia?

and thirdly, i must say EDMUND I MISS YOU. more so if you bring back krispy kreme doughnuts for me. ok make that since i said i miss you, u better bring back my krispy kreme doughtnuts. i really miss you! see ya back real soon!

ok that's it..

hugs,
jh~

yeah, i am actually quite sian of going china. not really looking forward to it. i dont know why. just have lots of commitments and stuffs to settle.

but anyhooo, i am sure that all the initial dread and apprehension will disappear once we're there:)

just because the five of you (HY included) makes great company and i already have a chance to feel of what it's like to lie with 2 of you.

anyway, can we plan the itinerary. i seriously hope we can tour other places and not only stay in Chengdu for the whole 8 days. it's good if we can go nearby cities/countires/civilisation. hehe.

yeahhh.. been trying to save money but to no avail. HAHAHA. how are you guys?

85 soon to discuss itnerary okay?

oh yeah, in case u all havent noticed, if u put a title, it wont come out in the post. haha.so any of u noe how to rectify this? or else, dont bother writing the header.

WAHLAU EH LN.. you nothing better to do isit?
hahaha. damn funny la. but i dint manage to see the earlier one cuz it expired.
siao eh.. too much time ah?

can you all let me whine?
I am FUCKING tired. arghh. i need a holiday. my job is killing me and i have no social life at all. argghhhhh. i cant wait to quit. there's just so many things to do, to complete and to finish.
:( :(

goddamnit.

HAHA. anyway it's not true that i think everything's gonna be alright. not all girls think that way. I think.. everyting's never gonna be alright, nothing's gonna be perfect and so we need to solve the problem one by one. no point crying, not point thinking .
but of course, we can help but feel sad, feel useless, disappointed and what nots BUT we can always be assured that there will always people who love and care about us!

and i love all of you :)

i'm like feeling tons better now.

Hey girl,

Ok lah, from your post it's quite impossible to tell what's really troubling you, but oh well, maybe tell us more over bak chor mee and stingray over the weekend? Edmund organizing this time, hope he has better luck than me.

And you know how we guys are with advise over problems. Girls will tell you all the time that everything will be ok, which is quite nice sometimes (Anna, this is where you come in hor). We guys? We're different. We'll give you actual solutions. But hey, the 3 of us are killer salesmen (Anna said this before... ), we have a penchant of making problems seem like there's no problem at all eh? So there, one supper, I guarantee your problem *jang jang jang* disappear faster than I can change parade! (I was my company's change parade champion hor...)

In the meantime, play this game to destress... my longest is 20sec... who can beat me?

Eh Ed, dun read read then dun post leh. Since you so zuo boh lan, post leh...

Now Tao Hua Yun very pop hor? *hint hint* ;)

well, i spent some me-time this weekend and i realised that after sweating it out and doing some therepeautic impulse buying, i'm feeling kind of rejuvenated. hahahaa..

anyway.

i've been feeling like i'm in some kind of a dilemma now.. looking at the tangle of things i've left behind, i'm beginning to feel more and more unsure of myself. to think i used to be so confident of myself last time. hah.
and having really weird dreams dont really help either.

Hey guys,

You know seeing how we all so looking forward to go China and all, and I was SUPER bored at work, so I did the unimaginable. To improve my Chinese, I translated 50 cent's IN DA CLUB for your reading pleasure. And as much as I am aghast to admit, I actually enjoyed doing it! Hahaha... I think I did a pretty good job, but please don't flame me, coz sometimes it's difficult as hell to understand ghetto/rap language. I hope this tickles you, maybe you'll have your own fun translating your own song too!

OUT OF THIS WORLD. i cant wait till the album's release!!!

ok yeah. that show chase... that gal is linda liao and dont u think she looks like fiona xie? which means tt she is not that pretty. her face is so small! i think she looks more and more like a mouse heeheee.
oh have i ever mentioned i met keegan kang in real person before? he took off his shades for us! hahahaa and i tell u, his eyes.... *swoons* enough said. he's cuter than utt!

Hey peepz,

I know I promised to blog more during this hols but tmd, the last 3 days have been hell for me man. Monday I ran up 39 degrees fever plus diarrhoea, killer combo lah. Simi lan also cannot eat. Today recover come back to work, *JANG JANG JANG!!!* I tio duty for Police Day Parade. With this, I dedicate to you my favourite poem:

Song song gao Jurong
Swee swee boh zhao zhwee
Shun shun char bee hoon
Lan lan jiak tau suan
Siao siao ku ku jiao

Ok enough of that, I must make a quick intro to 2 new albums I just listened to the last week. This first is local singer Corrine May's new album Safe in This Crazy World. Wah I tell you hor, this woman can REALLY sing man. Her voice like can give you an orgasm anytime man. Ok I exaggerate, but seriously man, her voice is really gan pua power lor. If y'all have time watch Chase on channel 5 I think on Thursdays (I think, I dunno, I also never watch). Her song is the main theme for the show. Hurry though, 2 part finale liao. For the girls, there is Utt, and to a lesser extent, Keegan Kang. For the guys, the female lead (dunno the name) is gan pua, and I mean GAN PUA chio. And then there is Corrine May's song. How to go wrong? Those cunning producers...

The seond album I must intro is admittedly downloaded. Boh pian. Worldwide release only on 6.6.2005. But it's COLDPLAY! Coldplay leh! How to wait! So my backside itchy, and after hours of searching, I finally managed to download their new album X and Y. *Sobz* They didn't disappoint after all. This is their 3rd attempt and every song is so so good, oozing with class and panache throughout. And with Chris Martin's voice backed up by amazing guitar riffs and groundbreaking rhythms, how to go wrong? (Aside: prob only JH will understand my anxiety about this) I will still buy the album, just to show I'm a true blue Coldplay supporter, and long may they rock on.

Bowels tingling again. China beckons...

Dear all,

i wanted to type in full chinese with the sounds and all but i gave up after the first sentence la, too waste time haha. Anw first of all, i need to thank all of you (5 of you) for accomodating this additional guest here. Dun worry ok, if u need to have some time alone, pls do let me know, i am perfectly fine with shopping on my own even in overseas if u allow me to recall my experience in Vietnam.but hmm eh dun all the time la, like tat i quite sad!
=( haha

Anw, just to add, gals, if we are doubtful of LN's taste in fashion wear (which personally i am quite), DUN worry! cuz i manage to find a second opinion, turned out that my japanese classmate is from Chengdu and she just went back, she says she will come back and give up some good recommendations to go - one eg she gave was- Chun1 Xi1 Lv (Road) - like far east pattern place. She also mentioned we can go check out some gay bars - COOL! i want go! and well she says china live bands not bad too.. which hmm although LN said otherwise...

Btw, are we doing sightsee-ing and can we go for massage cuz i think, bl**dy hell, spore spas are too expensive la.

Regards,
Huiying

Da jia hao, you shi wo.

Before I irritate the hell out of Anna, please allow me to change the language to one which does not require your imagination to guess which "sound" it is.

Anyway, in July, standby for hot weather. Sunglasses, sunhats, sun blocks, bring em all out. Berms, t-shirts and slippers should be the preferred attire. For those with a penchant for thick clothing, it is suggested that you leave them behind. According to the latest weather report aka my mother, July will prove to be one of China's hottest months. Fear not though, as much as it is hot, it will not be as humid as right here in Singapore.

The place of abode will be my parent's apartment known as "Jing3 Xiu4 Hua1 Yuan2". The apartment is a cozy one with 2 bedrooms ready for us. It will be a bit cramp, but at least it will be free. I hope y'all will not be too concerned with sleeping on mattresses.

It is recommended we try to go cheap on breakfasts. There is a Carrefour nearby the apartment where we can get dirt cheap roti, milk etc. This is so that we can splurge more on better meals for lunch and dinner. We should however try the tao huey nearby the apartment for breakfast one day. All I can say is pi pi chee chee dua liap nee!

Off my head, a few eating places we should go would be "Qing1 Shan4 Zai1", a place where we will enjoy marvellicious steamboat! We should also try the peking duck there. Y'all will also be amazed by the KFC there which sells this funky chicken wrap which is quite tok gong. We will also be going to my dad's favourite joint called Grandma's Deli where the Peanut Butter Pie is an absolute must try! There will also be dirt cheap jap ala carte buffet, Teppanyaki, and even thai food. For special dietary or taste requirements, exotic or otherwise, please do not hesitate to inform me, and I will try my best to fulfill.

For shopping, trust me when I say you will not regret. Guys, we'll just have to bite our tongues and help the girls carry, but I assure you we can refresh our wardrobes there also. Shoes bags, clothes, sports apparell, it's all there. Of course it's up to you to spot a bargain lah. If y'all are looking for tech stuff (thumbdrives, mp3 players etc), there's this place called "Bai3 Nao3 Hui4", Chengdu's very own Sim Lim Square, on the cheap of course. I got my Teku 2.2GB thumb drive for $150 there. You will may also be sweeping CDs, VCDs, DVDs, off the shelves. If you think Parallel import is cheap, you have seen nothing yet. I am particularly impressed by the TV series' you can get there by the season. CSI, friends, Sex in the City, you name it, they should have - by the entire season some more. I'm not so sure OC is very hot there though. I won't be surprised if we come back all overloaded.

For those who are concerned about Internet access, fear not! My mom's apartment got computer and China's very own interpretation of broadband. Of course, how broad is their band is questionable, but I assure you, you will not feel disconnected.

We should also go bowling and sing KTV. We can bowl until our hands break and sing until our voices are sore coz it's so dirt cheap.

Should there be any queries, please feel free to let me know.

Good morning to all,

Here's a sitrep from your friendly travel agent. I did a background check. Now, the dates we wanted, there are flights, but there are no longer any available seats. The closest we can secure considering everyone's constraints would be to leave on the 18th. Actually there are seats available on the 14th also, but Ray and Anna got camp right?

The date for our return would lan lan have to be on the 24th (Sorry ed. Unless we wanna leave on 21st, which makes it boh hua.) So we will have 7 days.

Finally, the tickets do cost $256, but I must apologize as I totally underestimated the airport tax, which amounts to an additional $158 per pax, which will make the total $414. I can't seem to get a better deal still. I spoke to my mom, and she is willing to let us use her credit cards, but I need y'all to pass me the money asap.

With the tix in mind, the BASIC budget should still be close to $600, about $624 to be exact (based on $30 bucks a day makan and travel, excluding shopping money).

I hope this doesn't change anything, and we're all still as enthusiastic to go! I need an URGENT reply by today please. Any queries please feel free to call me.
