damn those tie-breaks, really! oh man. nothing could be worse than this. oh yes, there is! experiencing total black-out for almost twelve hours! that's london and her inefficiency for you. electrical supply to my hall was non-existent yesterday, which drove my depressed and desperate friends and i to brunswick. thank goodness we had may ling to house us in her room at international hall which

RIP my bagel

2007-01-16T20:17:00.000+08:00

talk about being kitchen hazards, no one can beat me at this. today, i put my bagel into the microwave oven, not realising that i had placed it inside a paper bag. or at least, it didn't occur to me that there was anything wrong with that. after 2 minutes, i smelt something burnt. so i ran to the pantry only to see smoke coming out of the oven. yes, the paper bag caught fire and my bagel

les miserables

2006-12-10T12:32:00.000+08:00

christmas lights are up at oxford street. and the first digit in my countdown to italy is finally a single digit. eight is really my favourite number now. all is good.to make it better, i realised my dream ever since i was in secondary school by getting myself a scottish kilt. pure wool, damn cool. i wore this skirt to church today. i feel like a christmas tree. (:i caught les miserables when

to you:i don't wanna fall to pieces, i just wanna sit and stare at you.i need to curb the whole online shopping addiction. i've been ploughing through ebay more than usual these few days. not a very favourable prelude of my christmas shopping euphoria when it is unleashed.one tree hill. nathan scott. my current adorations.oh, and shopping too. obviously.californiaaaaa, here we comeeeeeee.

OMGGG

2006-11-20T23:17:00.000+08:00

definitely one of the most tormenting nights of my life. i've never used more 'omg' than i did tonight.which reminds me, yesterday was worse. my heart almost popped out of my mouth.mention prince-william-look-alike's name and i'll flip. trust me.and frank-lampard-ish cutie's one too, for that matter.i'm oh so absurdly jumpy.bollocks, this is seriously dodgy business!

credit goes to professor richard hooley. my contract law professor.JOKE (I)bill clinton and the pope, fictitiously, died on the same day. due to some administrative fault, the pope was sent to hell and bill clinton to heaven. after the correction was made, while bill clinton was making his way to hell, he met the pope on the way. the pope excitedly told him, "i'm so glad the mistake was remedied.

2006-11-14T16:37:00.000+08:00

yesterday, i set foot on waterloo bridge, lifted my head higher and got my eye line adjacent to the london eye. i was reminded once again that i am in london. i just stood there, rooted to the ground and admired the beautiful sight right before my eyes. the huge london eye along the thames river, and westminster parliament houses slightly to the right of this picture. then, i told myself how

extemporaneous is my forte. and true to that statement, randomness is going to prevail in my entry.quotable quote 1public law lecturer: the queen cannot be a roman catholic or married to a roman catholic. she has to be a protestant.llewellyn: diana, actually, the queen is buddhist.diana: huh? really?HAHAHAHAHA(:quotable quote 2jie ying, aka poksai, saw that mich goh has a similar jacket to hers,

copenhagen is a beautiful, truly european city, with medieval buildings aplenty. the danes are very much of the aryan race, and that means, shimmering blonde hair and clear blue eyes. behind these good looking faces, wrongly stereotyped by americans to be of low intelligence level, are good natured people who are willing to step forward to offer help, even without seeking, when they saw my

writer's block

2006-11-03T15:42:00.000+08:00

something just happened that calls for immediate blogging, regardless of how i'm trudging with much difficulty pass this hurdle of writing my first ever public law essay, my numero uno love.[dumbarian] and you're too late. you never call me when you're sober. says:ooohhh huh whats writers block?michelle. my ballads indulgence signals queerness. says:hahahahhamichelle. my ballads indulgence

2006-11-02T20:29:00.000+08:00

how does re-writing a european law essay slightly more than a thousand words from scratch sounds to you? it totally sucked out every single drop of brain juice i have.the doctrine of direct effect: accidentally erasing the entire essay has direct effect on my sanity.the london temperature being perpetually below ten degree celsius does no good to your brain.so there, i can't blog properly. till

2006-10-28T10:16:00.000+08:00

hellooooooooo. i'm just really psyched right now, because i am going to be in denmark in slightly less than twenty four hours! copenhagen! gasp! my friends have all expressed their enthusiasm on their respective blogs, but i have not. so i took this opportunity before my brunch to say how excited i am to go on my first trip outside london. and thank God, it's READING WEEK for all first-year kings

HILLSONG LONDON

2006-10-22T17:31:00.000+08:00

i went to HILLSONG LONDON for my first time today. many singaporeans travelled from all over the UK to the dominion theatre at tottenham court to hear the sermon given by NEW CREATION CHURCH's pastor joseph prince. he was REALLY entertaining as per usual. there was something he said about sin being both a noun and a verb. he said to the largely british crowd, "the word 'sin' can be a noun and a

sunday at kensington with my hall friends proved to be absolutely a great joy. i had bayswater duck, which voon chee morbidly pointed out the swimming ducks at kensington gardens and hyde park which are not too far away from four seasons restaurant. hmm, nevermind. i got my freshly baked krispy kreme at harrods and i dig the new cappuccino flavour! much to mandy's envy. (:law party at mayfair

i love canterbury hall!

2006-10-12T20:27:00.000+08:00

hall life is really very perky! it is so nice to have friends living a few door steps away, and contemporaneously being able to safeguard my own privacy. i really have grown so attached to this hall of mine. this 'home away from home'. i just feel so at ease here. it is a place i can truly relax and joke around. meals are always good for filling up my tummy, chit-chatting, laughing and

chicago

2006-10-06T09:09:00.000+08:00

the first celebrity i saw in london is miss ashlee simpson. the american sweetheart is in town to star in the famous musical 'chicago'. OMG, i LOVE the musical. it was a lot better than 'cabaret'. the 20 quid paid was truly worth every pence. but i thought the hype over miss simpson was over-rated. it was a good show, but she made roxie hart too bimbotic for my liking. mama morton's voice was

i promised diana that i'll publicise her defeat in the sudoku challenge! to rub salt on her wounds, i went to her apartment, flipped her desk emoticon and aptly chose 'embarrassment' to reflect her feelings about being the last to complete the number puzzle she's not heard of till last week.go diana! win llewellyn next time! the french infatuation has ceased. it's about time i revert back to my

cabaret

2006-10-01T22:27:00.000+08:00

my maiden weekend in london without parental supervision. and what did i do? i did the most ludicrous thing. i went to watch a musical called 'cabaret'. fair enough, a musical is suppose to be a very lofty thing to watch. but, the shock came in the form of nudity. and yes, to me, it is a form of art. not that i excessively indulge in it, of course. to put it simply, i actually felt that 'cabaret'

canterbury hall

2006-09-25T23:57:00.000+08:00

i have FINALLY moved into my hall, canterbury hall. it has a pretty close-knitted singaporean congregation. and i am happy about it. i know i should be venturing out and enjoying the cosmopolitan londoner life. but i still feel more at ease and comfortable with my fellow singaporeans. during lectures, which some started full-swing, my whole singaporean gang just sat together. it was SO FUN. if

I WANT A CHALET WITH BRYSON! and that is NOT a hint. it is an order! nique-key should start doing something about this.

first week in london

2006-09-21T22:12:00.000+08:00

i have been in london for three days already! and i am slowly getting accustomed to everything here.for starters, the complicated tube map no longer torments and intimidates me! i am able to swiftly, efficiently and accurately change lines! to exhibit my intelligence, i am able to remember that there are a few lines which are prominent in my travelogue. the lines are called central, bakerloo,

the last week in singapore

2006-09-16T22:44:00.000+08:00

even though, as diana pointed out, meeting up with different groups of people for seemingly the last time before i coop myself up in london for the next six months does reinstate the whole melancholy of being far away from everything comfortable in this birth place. however, having said that, maybe i was more excited to meet up with friends that i've not seen since a long time ago, that i forgot

NEVERRRRRRR!I MISS BRYSON! we suspect he woke up early saturday morning because he knew we were going to be at kallang tennis centre to watch his brother's match. awww. BRYSONNNNNNNN! <33

2006-09-09T00:44:00.000+08:00

mention 'BRYSON' and you'll find me screaming in response, "OMG I SO MISS HIM! HE'S UBER CUTE!". indeed, the chalet at downtown east at the beginning of the week proved to be an absolutely timely bonding session between bryson and us all who adore him. of course, not to neglect htay who came for both of our bbq dinners and even joined us for wild wild wet. unfortunately busy brandon lai couldn't

most people around the world stress over the difficulty of making ends meet. needless to say, to afford luxurious items aren't even in their minds. BUT, my dad was exasperatingly pleading us a few hours ago, "please help me! which should i get? the mercedes benz s series or the bmw five series?"the paradigm of bimbo is back with stunningly hilarious lines to tickle your funny bone! mandy begged
