*funeral mode*

A few weeks ago, there was an accident in NUS..the crane on construction site fell down and hence, caused 3 construction workers to die and a few injured..i was sorry for them, but what i didn't know was that there was heroic action happening during the accident..

For some of you who followed the
coverage on local media,
you would have
realized that one of the victims
was just starting work that
very day when he
passed on. Further reports
from the ground indicated that
when the victim
realized the crane was
about to topple over, he made a
last-ditch attempt to
swing the
horizontal boom away from the nearby
“university”, thinking for the
many
students and personnel who might be in
the midst of lessons while the
victim himself was witnessing the very last
few moments of his own life.
The end
result, with the good graces of God,
the boom landed meters away
from the bus
stop, the very same bus stop we use
every day, meters away
from the very
“university” that houses the many
faculty offices, the MBA
students’ lounge, the
Bizad club room, our
indispensible LT16 amongst
the many halls of learning we
gather every day.

I know that for his heroic action may not be mentioned all the time..For all i know, they don't even acknowledge his name..But with my blog, i'm hoping we all can remember that he was, once, a hero..

May God bless him..

*random stuff

i just tried to find the meaning of my name, since even my parents can't tell me exactly what it means..n i found it!!apparently my name is taken from a croatian language and it means PEACE!haha..so much for an oxymoron..

well aniway, here are some pics i took in Vivocity when everything was close..

a bit retarded yeah?haha..

well these were taken when i stayed at je's place on first sem..

and here are je's pics..

*sst..she's studying!!or is she sleeping?

Je's practicing IT..

OOPS..it turns out she's checking her facebook!!

mugging day in Holland V..

taken in Starbucks, these are my legs and je's..n she told me that my feet are ugly -_-"










mirna and jessica, taking picture in front of the wall of little pins!!it was so cute that both of us couldn't resist to pose in front of so many people passing by in Holland V..-though je still looked so pai seh.. :D

my valentine..

it was our first valetine together and it was beautiful..we went to Sentosa and we played luge and skyrider..we walked down the beach and i felt the sand on my feet..it was wonderful..at night we went to eat at Manhattan fish market which was very expensive and romantic..i now know what expensive date means *-* by the end of the day, we went to see Sweeney Todd in Plasing..and he fell asleep (literally) during the show..-_-"

well, anyhow it was still beautiful!

and i thank you sweetheart :

val's dae*

for many, val's day is a very significant day..the day when you show those you love undivided attention and care..for me, however, val's day is simply a too-commercialised day whereby people are forced to buy chocolate, expensive roses, and extravagant dinner..it doesn't make any sense to me that v day is made to be such a big deal when the main difference is just that there are more couple holding hands with flowers on the female's other hand..i mean, when you are with the one you love, doesn't evry single dayfell like a valentine day?

however, in the spirit of Saint Valentino, i shall take valentine day as somewhat significant :D

*this song is dedicated for those happy couple out there, esp Allen and girlfriend in Philipine (ps.this song always remind me of u somehow :D)

Thank you for this moment
I've gotta say how beautiful you are
Of all the hopes and dreams I could've prayed for
There you are
If I could have one dance forever
I would take you by the hand
Tonight it's you and I together
I'm so glad, I'm your man
And if I lived a thousand years
You know, I never could explain
The way I lost my heart to you
That day.
But if destiny decided
I should look the other way
Then the world would never know
The greatest story ever told
And did I tell you that I love you tonight?
I don't hear the music
When I'm looking in your eyes
But I feel the rhythm of your body
Close to mine.
Its the way we touch that sends me
Its a way we'll always be
Your kiss, your pretty smile you know I'd die for
Oh baby, you're all I need.
And if I lived a thousand years
You know, I never could explain
The way I lost my heart to you
That day.
But if destiny decided
I should look the other way
Then the world would never know
The greatest story ever told
And did I tell you that I love you,
Just how much I really need you
Did I tell you that I love you tonight?
(Repeat)

APPY VAL'S DAE people!!

HAHAHAHA

after the whole day of lesson, i went to toilet, only to find that NUS students have weird sense of humour (even in toilet cubicle!)

ooh well..sometimes i just love NUS..

chinese new year

sin cia

my favourite time of the year

the food being prepared on our large table..chilren running around like there is no tomorow..uncles, aunties, and cousins coming from all over the place..the queue we have to do to get angpao-the ability to spot the people who has finished their food was really very important in order for you not to get to queue very long..putting on a cute face so as to bluff the oldies that we haven't got the angpao..the opening and counting angpao inside the room..

i know it may sound like nothing, but i do miss this time..almost every year i wait for this time, becuse not only do i get new clothes, i get a lot of money..but even during those time, the most important thing for me was not the money..neither was it the clothes, though i always told my parents n friends that they were in fact the most looking-forward thing in sin cia (this was said for the sake of saying it)

the most important thing for me was the reunian dinner..the shared laughter, the togetherness, the stories we exchange to each other..the reunian!!

i remember mama lan was the one who always cook for us..she was the one who always told people what to do and how to do it..ooh i do miss her so much!!without her, it all somehow doesn't feel as good anymore..now to even think about her seems to be a torture..the memory of her is overwhelming that i can't even keep my eyes dry when i think of her..

now that she is gone, the party doesn't seem to have any spirit of new year..no body is even willing to actually celebrate sin cia anymore..now what's left is only the memory..the memory of us running around with glee..the laughter we shared when we compared our angpao..the stories been told on the table as we ate our wonderful dinner..nothing is left but the memory..

but it's our anniversary dear!!

2 feb 2008

it has been exactly one year from the day i agreed to be your girlfriend

to make it the most special day ever, i have it planned for so long
i wanted to bring you for a morning walk at botanical garden and to have our morning breakfast together

but you told me that u were afraid that you would feel tired and became moody the whole day long

but sayank, it's our anniversary!!

and then i kept my mouth shout

i made another plan

i wanted to bring you to chinese garden and show you the torty's museum where we could feed them and saw the siamese torty

but you told me you wanted to go to levi's and meet aunty so as to
get a discounted jeans

but sayank, it's our anniversary!!

yet you told me to understand that it was your only day off and hence you could only get the discount now that it was not yet chinese new year

i wanted to bring you to esplanade and enjoy the evening and have the melted chocolate

but you asked me for what?

but sayank, it's our anniversary!!

i wanted to look my best on the day

but you told me to just come out faster so that we could meet sooner

but sayank, it's our anniversay!!

i wanted to watch movie with you

but you had to choose your jeans until we had no time anymore
i wanted to say, "but sayank.."

but nothing came out

it was the worst anniversary could ever be..
