No fate between Me and Badminton

Arghh, that penang trip entry is going to take me a least a week to finish!
It's still not done yet hor...

Okie Hols' here for everyone except for the poor final year students like myself...okie, will complain about my fyp later...

So wat's been happening after my exams?

Hmph, thurs after law paper was the little retail therapy for moi and on friday it was my sweetie's turn for some retail therapy at expo... he's buying a laser printer... SEE! Guys can buy printer and be very happy about it... I dun get it...


Sweetie looks like a professional auntie with tat trolley

I have to chase after him for these shots k....sigh...

Saturday sweetie came over my house, sunday also and today too!!

Today, he came over and we went to play badminton!! I havent play in like dunno how many centuries liao.... It was soo fun! I used to LOVE badminton when I was a kid... it's like the first sport I ever did.... played like very day in primary, I use my recess time to play with my classmate... it was very popular in my pri sch during that time.

Actually I thought of taking up badminton as my eca back then but somehow I didnt got in....eh, i'm not saying I'm very good but I pretty sure the girls who got in (pri sch) are not better than me....

Well, firstly I think the selection of the players sux.... since there's alot of us who want to join so the teacher wanted to pick out those with the best stamina first...

faintz.... I really think the teacher need some help in this area... I'm not a PE teacher but I think I have common sense enough to know that stamina can be trained and wat's more impt is the skill or potential tat kid have...yes, true that skills can be picked up but it'll take alot more time and effort not to mention very good coaching to improve skills than improving on stamina...agree? I mean how ridiculous is it to send off the kid even without seeing him or her play? Okie, I'm one of those sent off....wait.... still got more..

Secondly, I think that teacher have some sort of brain damage.... She gave the instruction and she forgot all about it.... okie, you know wat she made the kids do to test their stamina? She ask them to run up and down this stairs in the hall and she said, we can only stop when she blow the whistle....so okie, easy peasy.... I ran up and down, up and down and up and down again then I heard her whistle... so I stopped and looked at her... and tat's when she came and sent me off... tat's it! I wasnt given a chance to play at all! I was very upset...but I stayed on and see the rest play... I almost wanted to cry when I saw the rest of the girls play... 9.5 out of the 10 girls cant even serve properly....sorry I know it's like I'm bitching abt my own friends but tat's the truth! That's the reason I dun play badminton with my female classmates... (ps/ I was a super tomboy btw) when I play with them 95% of the time the shuttlecock doesnt come back...(and I havent mention tat if I recall correctly I beat almost all the guys in my class in 1.6km run? think I was only behind 2 or 3 of the guys...stamina? I think so wor...haha argh, sorry I know I sound like I'm bragging but I juz felt I was judged unjustly!...if tat didnt happen you might see Jenny the Badminton player liao...but then I think Jenny the Biathlete or Lifeguard sounds more cool...haha)

Why super tomboy? CUZ I had the SHORTEST hair in class (including all the males!) when I Was in P5, my fringe was like 5mm long when I pull it real hard, it's almost NON EXISTANT! thanx for my dad's hairdresser friend... I never like any of my haircut by her... I tell you she has the SHARPEST red finger nails and when she shampoo and wash my hair... I had to bite my lips to stop myself from screaming in pain! And as always, the return trip from her salon was always a teary one....now I feel so sorry for myself... *sob sob*

okie, back to my badminton story...after that I felt tat it's okie not being in the team... SO I kinda stop badminton in pri sch but I got into mini tennis instead... it was fun... I had a group of very happening seniors too... they were all P5 I think while I'm P4.... they are also the smart kids...all from EM1 and I was the only EM2 student there...

When I went to P5 I thought i could finally play but somehow my form teacher felt tat I shouldnt cuz tat eca distract me from my sch work... oie! Juz because I am so excited about my eca and less so about my sch work, I'm distracted? Why dun you go figure out why I behave like this during your lesson? It may very well because your lesson pretty much....SUCKS! hahaha..... I cant imagine myself talking like tat to my teacher this way when I'm in pri sch...haha

aiya... kids will be kids ma...actually I think all my teachers in my pri sch didnt like me much?? except maybe my P6 chinese language teacher... she's my FAV teacher!! I love all her lessons... she make the lesson so much more interesting... everyday after sch, when my mum ask me wat sch work I have, I'll always pull out my chinese hw and start doing... in fact I even do ahead of the class cuz I enjoy my chinese lesson so much...I think she was the teacher who make me like Chinese Language, even till now I wouldnt mind learning it. I did pretty well in tat subject all the way till JC although I slacked alittle and got a A2 in my mother tongue. (ACJC ma, it's a sin to do too well in Chinese there bleah...okie, I'm joking hor...) I remember I always make sure I have the highest score in every single test when I was under that teacher.


My fav teacher and me!

Picture was taken juz before I left my pri sch... ahh, talk abt mini tennis, like I say after my form teacher talk to the teacher-in-charge abt me being distracted he ask me to try to put more effort in my sch work loh...why do they want to kill the only little fun I have in sch?? Anyway, I became librarian cuz my fav teacher is the teacher-in-charge so heehee... I went loh... I'm pretty good at wrapping books leh!!... and after a while I join the christian fellowship too...

The last time I met my fav teacher...okok, she's Shen Lao Shi (Miss Sim).... I was in JC liao, I met her on a bus when I was going home.... She's pregnant and still look as gorgeous! Her husband is a blessed man! heehee... so is her child...

okie, my arm are getting sore from all the typing, actually it's already sore when I type, today's badminton session was too much for my little arm... lots of muscle microtears!! Hope I'll survive tmr's biathlon training!

Ay! I haven talk abt my schedule this hols....never mind... tmr then plan la!

haha... orh, juz something to share before I officially sign off....

Something from the net....

DHL Lifesaving Challenge at Penang!!

Okie, today I shall be a guai kia and stay home...

So I shall write about the lifeguards' trip to penang for the lifesaving challenge...

At Lavendar MRT Station...


After a long journey....


Here we are!!

After reaching the hotel, we got our keys and check into our rooms...Violet and Nicole are my roomies!!! heehee

After that we had a briefing at Shereen and Peishan's room...


The Briefing

Followed by our beach training beside our resort


Beach Training

Since we wont be competing at the beach beside our resort and we cant go for training at the competition beach yet since they are setting up the jellyfish net there. So we just took a stroll at the beach and did some sprints and beach flag practise.

We also saw a dead animal at the beach while strolling... they say it's a dog... I dunno, cuz it smelled really bad... I only saw it from a distance... it looks bluish....eeeee....

Guess wat? Then it's pool training at PISA...


Pool Training at PISA

Since I'm not involved in the pool events, I swam a few laps and got out of the water quick...why??? Cuz it's FREAKIN COLD!
Not only is it freezing in the pool, the pool is really deep too, not to mention that the side walls is so high that most of us have difficulty climbing out of the pool...

After warm up, the teams did practise for the relay events and then their own individual events... Getting use to the coldness is easier since your body warms up after a while but, I guess it was a huge surprise that the pool structure is so different from our pool.

The pool is very deep so it can be a problem for a few events tat require the lifeguards to pick up the manikins from the pool floor...and also for obstacle swim... most of us are used to diving to the pool bed and use it to kick off but in this case it'll be abit of a problem.

So the team had a little brainstorming and strategy planning session. Problems faced were being voiced out and everyone help by suggesting possible ways to overcome those problems. And after a little discussion, the team set out again to practise the solutions suggested.

Though I wasnt involved in the pool events, I could sense the seriousness of my team mates about the next day's event...

After the training session, we went to a nearby shopping mall and had dinner. Didnt have time to shop at all... The team split into two groups for dinner... A few of us had dinner at fish and co... hmmm, Steven, Justin, Uwei, Zhenquan,Peishan, Sheeren and me...

I thought singaporeans will rush to buy chewing or bubble gum when they are in Malaysia but there's something else tat my team mates rush to buy.....
MacDonald's MILKSHAKE!!!
I didnt know tat everyone was crazy about Mac's milkshake...I didnt know tat singapore's mac is not selling anymore (I've never try before).... Since everyone is buying I bought one also loh.... okie la, not bad...haha


The following day is the Still waters Competition for the DHL Lifesaving Challenge. We had to wake up at like 5 plus in the morning.... The bus leaving for PISA will leave at 630am so we had to eat our breakfast and get ready by then...

So it's competition day 1 at PISA!!


Presenting The NTU Team!!


So so... we are at PISA for the still waters event. Everyone starts to warming up and mentally preparing themselves for their events.



I wasnt in such a serious mood though since I'm the reserve for still water events... and on the RESERVE Team we have Uwei, Sze Zeng and Jenny (THE CAPTAIN OF THE RESERVES!!) <--- Self-proclaim one

This Reserve team is actually made up of the RUNNERS... we are better on land than in water....haha..Jacques' our PROFESSIONAL cameraman! Most of the pictures here are from his $3k plus camera....but I have no shame taking my toy camera and start snapping all over the place!! wahaha

okie, pic time!


After competition, we're off to dinner + some ktv

Let the SPANKED speak

Found something that you all might find useful in the future...

Parenting tips on naughty naughty kids....I was quite a naughty kid...actually I'm a very naughty kid...and I'm glad my parents didnt do this on me...

Here it goes....

Most of the population think it is very improper to spank children, so my hubby and I have tried other methods to control our kids when they have one of "those moments".

One that we found very effective is for me to just take the child for a car ride and talk. They usually calm down and stop mishaving after our little car ride together.

I've included a photo of one of our sessions, with our son, in case you would like to use the method.

....

*dumbfounded*

Talk about spanking... I think I got lots of them when I was a kid... naughty ma...

eh... i cannot remember all the stuff I got spank for la... but sometimes I think my parents hit me out of anger which shouldnt be the case cuz spanking is suppose to be teaching kids a lesson...

There are times when I feel tat my parents are unreasonable to spank me, I got angry with them...and when I became alittle older (but still the "spank-able" age) I will snatch the cane from my parents sometimes when I feel tat they were being unreasonable to want to spank me... I mean parents are still human ma and arent perfect in their ways.

I think I'm really a rebellious kid... maybe not exactly rebellious but probably cuz I'm strong about my views... will stand up for them? Alot of times I got spank because I told my parents they are wrong (if you say your parents are wrong, you sure get spank one, even if they are really wrong)... but even if I know I will get spanking I will still say out... very stubborn Jenny...

But I'm glad tat my parents spanked me... cuz I still believe that spanking is essential to make a child learn... however, spanking only work for younger kids... Never ever spank a teenager... well, to be frank, the pain from those normal cane is quite bearable but it is the humiliation that come with it that bother the teenager... I wasnt scare of caning anymore when I was little bigger...

hmph, why am I talking like I'm some parenting expert hur...?

Oh, actually I'm juz writing this down from the point of view of the SPANKED....

so next time when I'm going to be the SPANKER, I will know what I should do and wat I shouldnt do... haha


Sigh, I wish I have a cat at home now... so sad that my "meow meow" went missing abt 2 years ago...

I'm also taking a break from keeping betta (fighting fish), was having too much training and too little rest and no time to take care of them.... I had like 20 pieces of them but some died cuz I didnt manage to change water tat frequently and also cuz of the blackish water and some anti chlorine crystal incompatibility which results in formation of thin films on the water surface the day after I change water... had to give this a break...

Some pics of my bettas...





I lent all my nisso tanks and my betta rack to willy... think I'll get one really nice betta to keep first.... yeah, this holiday I'll go look for my dream betta!
and 小镇全 shall his name be!

In the mean time, two little cute turtles are under my care...heehee...


This is the 小 turtle

this is the FAT turtle


CUTE or not? heehee...


This is wat they eat


Proof that they like it!!!


Okie, I better get going! Going to be late liao....

GOING OUT AGAIN!!! YEAH!

Before you think my Quizz Fever is over... here we go AGAIN!

QUIZZES!!!!

not again??.....

YAY!

try this and tell me wat's your result? Guess what's mine?






Athletic Kid



Even if you weren't a football star, you spent a good amount of time playing sports and keeping fit.

People may have stereotyped you as a "dumb jock" - but they underestimated your will, wit, and determination.






You Are 50% Boyish and 50% Girlish


You are pretty evenly split down the middle - a total eunuch.

Okay, kidding about the eunuch part. But you do get along with both sexes.

You reject traditional gender roles. However, you don't actively fight them.

You're just you. You don't try to be what people expect you to be.






You Are Not Scary



Everyone loves you. Isn't that sweet?






You Are 17 Years Old



Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe.

13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world.

20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences.

30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more!

40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.

How much does my blog worth??

Found something interesting....

Let me see how much my friends' blogs are worth....heehee

First up!! Junqin's


Junqin's blog is worth $2,258.16.

Pearl's blog is worth $1,129.08.
How much is your blog worth?



Ahh ahhh, my turn my turn......!!!

Jenny's blog is PRICELESS!!.
How much is your blog worth?

Do you have a million-dollar smile?

Know wat's the longest english word ???

It's SMILES!!

Dun look at me like I'm an idiot k... I passed my maths papers, thank you very much, and I have no problem counting 1 to 10,000,000...

Look at the word again carefully...

sMILEs

You ought to be shot if you still cant see it...
It's the longest word cuz there's a mile between the first and the last letter...

That's not the main part of today's entry though...

Exams are FINALLY coming to an end...(so near yet so far)

for many who had finished, they are already rotting in their new found freedom but for the rest of us...we are still slogging away for our last battle this thursday or friday

Ayy... It's been so long...We can no longer remember how it feels to be happy and smiling seems to be the last thing we feel like doing...

But I feel tat we should smile more...simply cuz it makes us look better and quoting from an pastor... "The cheapest (and most effective) cosmestic is a smile"

It's true you know.... juz ask yourself if you will be turn off by someone who has this face that look like it's baptised in Tom Yam juice perpetually...

Okie, so now I've convinced you that smiling is impt... the sixty-four-thousand-dollar question is how to smile when you dun feel like it?

READ and Thou shall be enlighten....


note: This is for all the cheapos and fakers only....



It's wat I call a CFS (Cheap & Fake Smile)


Disclaimer: I'm not responsible for any injury caused by this okie? I have no duty of care towards ppl who read this okie? I DID NOT advise you to try okie? Therefore you cannot sue me for tort of neglience!! *evil laughter*


I still prefer the genuine smile, it's priceless and looks stunning on everyone...

okie...another lame entry but dun worry, I'm finish with it....

"Dun smile only because you are happy, smile to make yourself happy"

It's another day in Pearnet... *salute*

Untitled

Okie, before I start lamenting about my revision, here's a lame question...

Question: "What makes the monkey falls off the tree?"
*hint* lame question means an even lamer answer...get it?

I thought it's a bliss to have 9 days to study for my last paper...

And how far is it from the truth???
As far as the pimple is to my nose....

The truth is.... i think it is a pure torture to have so many days to study for this paper (pls dun hit me for saying tat...not tat I'm a genius or wat, I juz dunno how to study for this paper and given 9 days to study it is freaking me out BIG TIME)

It's official!! My life until the end of my law paper is MEANINGLESS ....arrrgghhh


*breathes in deeply*

Ahhh... okie.... I'm bored highlighting the whole of my Law text so I've decided to do something that requires some brain cell activities...Sprouting nonsense here of course!!

okie... I still have no idea what I'll be writing about....ay...wherever my thoughts leads loh...ahaha...so sorry to disappoint you...

Anyway, I was juz talking to my ultra skinny friend Dinesh the other day...
He juz came back from Australia for vacation and he sent an sms to my old phone number...of course I didnt reply..duh... and later at night he "accused" me of ignoring his sms...Can I sue him?? err... for false accusation? (got such thing or not?)

I wished I had that old number now though... why??? cuz the first 5 digits is exactly the same as my sweetie's... how cool is it huh.... I really want that number back *sigh*

Maybe I should dial the number and check if it is in use? if not, maybe I can request it back next time?

What if someone is using it already???
hmph... I'll call everyday (using pay phone of course! or use my house number, it's private number) and harrass that person until he/she decided to change number??? haha, clever right?
I can also start giving out that number to my friends and ask them to call whenever they need a place to vent? *Oooh, you're so BAD!!*

Any better suggestions than that?? Anyone??

*yawnzz* Today's weather great for napping... I think I'll probably continue again next time.....

Oh, juz before I go... have you manage to come up with a list of lame answers to my lame question?

The answer: GRAVITY of course!

Lame enough for you?

Not lame enough??... you give me your ans and we'll see
