oh sheeva,

i'll try to slot in little mini updates here and there whenever i can find the time. as of now i jus finished my lunch which was disgusting. do not. i repeat, do not. try by any chance, the beef kebab from the mediterranean stall in foodcourt 6 at SP. unless of course, if u have a certain liking for wet tyres.

*sick*

well this happened on 7th of august, a sunday. me and puisan decided to go watch dim sum dollies which will be held at the esplanade theatre. jasmine couldnt make it as she had smthing on. first i foremost, i told puisan to buy the ticket the day before the concert but once again i get to repeat my favourite words ,'Nobody Listens to Ali!!!'

oh wells, so we met up the day of the musical at 1pm. it was to be held at 3pm at esplanade. met up at bishan junction 8 to book the tickets first. but to our dismay. tickets were sold out. blardy hell, i was so looking forward to this. that was jus dampening my mood for the day. so in the end we decided to head for where else, but town. *rolls eyes*

we jus got bored of the normal shop shop shop. i'm getting really bored with that. especially at town cause theres nothing else that u haven seen. so we decided to go to the route rarely travelled. its this route that passes palais renaissance, forum, hilton hotel and tanglin mall. its jus on whole straight line with not much shops for teenagers to go to. but as for me, i jus love the exploring.


first, we pass the royal thai embassy. so i decided to take a little snap there.

it was really a blardy hot day. and guess what, i was wearing black. oh sheeva. furthermore it's long sleeve. i was practically wet under my shirt. haha. den we jus walk and walk somemore till we i came across this pyramid-like object near this place called the orientalist. it was suppose to be a fountain. but since it was such a hot day, all the water dried up. thats why it doesnt look one tinsey winsey bit wet.

we passed by this row of shops that looked really vintage. and guess wad they sold, antiques. haha. they had like statues of buddha and wooden carven objects. really nice and cool. but i like the exterior. it's really rare in singapore for u to see shops that look like these. most of our shops are in high rise malls, very 'metallic and glass' exterior. in singapore, it is inside the shop that attracts the people, not the outside of the shop. that means it is what is sold, not where it's sold. but so we cant blame it at anyone cause our land area is jus a small 648km2. u cant expect to see low rise building. it is jus not practical.

hi ants,

firstly, i must explain why i call u guys ants. haha. ladies and gentlemen, i dont call u guys ants cause i think i'm sweet. i dont think i'm sweet. i know it. haha. anyway, i chose ants cause it signifies a colony of close knitted insects. ants are always together. it is their togetherness that appeals to me.

well, was suppose to blog today but didnt really have enough time, so i jus decided to post 2 pics up first.

its of my ants. this is how i envision my ants to be. well, i shall call u guys urban ants.

this entry will be bout my week.

monday


exhibition boards are here! we have a retail environment technology(RET) project and a part of the project make it necessary for us to doll up a board, the size of a door, with stuff related to our project. so we (me, sheryl, jf and jy) sat and discussed what to have on our board till. denise had to leave earlier cause she had training. the whole discussion took a while and we left school around 8.30pm.

so while waiting they(sheryl and jf) got bored

and then i acted retarded with sheryl.

two of my classmates, maddie and yasi(at the back) popped in while me and denise were taking foto.

in year one when i did project with sheryl, jf, cecilia and charlene and it ended late. we like to run down the slope on the way down to the mrt station. for all of you who donno, the business block is located at the top of a hill. so we have to climb a slope to reach our classes. damn tiring. anyway, so me and jf took this oppurtunity to reminisce and ran down the slope together. it felt great. kinda like a stress reliever.

tuesday

skipped lesson to continue with our board. everyone is kinda tired with the burden from the other projects. apart from this, we have 4 other projects pending.morale was low, so we decided to leave early, get some rest and come back early in the morning tmr, fresh and ready to complete our board.

wednesday

deadline for board completion is 3pm. so we all met in school at 10am to get it done.

met my fan club(thats what all my fans call them) along in the lift.

also met ps at the library and decided to snap a shot.

and so we put up all the stuff we made. took us like 4hours for all the cutting, the pasteing and the other stuff and finally the its up.

the final product. our project was on converse.

Image hosted by Photobucket.com
our main piece on the board was a tv. it had a handle where u rotate it and u can see the different different products converse had. we mad it from cardboard. it was our pride and joy and it took us forever to make it.

we also had to up a 5Ps (product, price, place, promotion, people). we decided to make them into cute icons to stick it on our board.

Image hosted by Photobucket.com
and finally the group members that made this exhibition board a reality. hip hip hooray!

so after the project was done. teacher graded us while we explained the concept of it. she said our board was nice visually but didnt really have much info on it. darn. but hey at least it was nice. later i walked around the flea market they had at the convention centre. saw some familiar faces setting up stall there. said hi and decided to support my fellow friends by buying their products. met up with xc and mx later. we've decided to go raffles place. i was too free in the afternoon and decided that i could help them with their project while i while my time away.
