Today (27/10):

marketing today was kinda fun, about target segment. during 2nd meeting, we did an activity in class. everyone has to write down their handphone model and reason for choosing each category under the category (good value, brand or function) they look for when they purchase handphone. i chose good value, i was actually stuck between good value and function. i want a good function phone yet it must be affordable.

oh ya, angela saw me at food haven and she was like saying hi to me. haha. finally saw her. (:

anyway, kbox has like become part of our entertainment, at least must go there 1 to 2 times a month? then we spot super junior's sorry sorry at the advertisement there. we want to find and play that MV but we cant find! it's under the new MV section but dont have. we like gone crazy finding it but still to no avail. kinda disappointed lor, like 一场欢喜 一场空 but nevermind. after kbox, went sim lim square. went there to get michelle's lappy sleeve and limin's earphones. oh ya, yesterday i did not went to school cos i was having stomach cramp and sore throat. poor me. so i did not join W46D for the movie outing. sorry guys, hope to join you guys next time and hope you guys had enjoy!!

yea, happy, SHINee's album hit 60 000 orders!! :) music core performance; minho become the centre at the rocka part and why did they not perform the 2nd rocka part? i like the rocka part sia. and onew condition at 1:56! dubu always make cute mistake and this is what i like about our leader^^

LOL. something happen when we are waiting for 89. i drop my precious precious lappy on the floor. i was like WTH! i was so anxious, faster open lappy and check if anything happen to it. DAMN CLUMSY OF ME SEH. lucky nothing happen. finally reach the NTUC office there but dont know why the voucher end up only 2 days 1 night lor. went KFC aftermath, saw shazana with her friend. i had cheese fries, super full. after that, when we going to take bus back saw atirah. she's going for work. too many coincidence today.

Monday (19/10):

i have listen to all the songs in 2009, Year Of Us. super nice as usual, Jo Jo and Y.O.U. lyrics are especially beautiful and romantic. SHINee sure didnt disappoint me. (:

Y.O.U.:

[Onew] I meet you in a chaotic time
Even though I couldn't understand anything
[Jonghyun] I become angry at everyone
Telling me to quit because it's hard
No girl, I only show you my foolish side all the time

[Minho] Even if my body breaks
Even if my heart is torn
[Key] The promise to protect you
That promise will eternally be the same thing

[Taemin] Nothing can stop me from loving you, you, you
[Onew] The reason why I breathe is you, you
[Jonghyun] The reason why I sing is you, you
[Key] The reason why I live on is you, you
[Jonghyun] Nothing can stop me from loving

[Key] Why is it that the people beside you when it's good
Leave one by one without looking back when it's bad? Yeah
[Taemin] Like glass, a human's heart is so weak
A heart hurts so much from the little things

[Jonghyun] Let's not be like that
Even if we hate it, even if it hurts
[Onew] The promise to be by your side
That promise will eternally be the same thing

[Jonghyun] Nothing can stop me from loving you, you, you
[Minho] The reason why I run is you, you
[Key] The reason why I dance is you, you
[Jonghyun] The reason why I live on is you, you

[Onew] Years will come and years will go
The good days and even the bad days
I'm yours([Minho] When I'm happy)
I'm yours ([Minho] When I'm sad)
I'm yours ([Key] I'm not just saying that)
I'm yours ([Key] I'm trying to show you)

[Onew] Years will come and years will go
Even when we grow older some day
I'm yours ([Taemin] When I'm happy)
I'm yours ([Taemin] When I'm sad)
I'm yours ([Jonghyun]I'm not just saying at)
I'm yours ([Jonghyun] I'm trying to show you, baby)

[Onew] Something like that might not happen
But even if your heart changes and you leave me
Do you know that I won't be able to forget you?

[Jonghyun] Cause I love you you you
[Onew] The reason why I sing is you, you
[Jonghyun] It's you, you, you
[Key] My every reason is you, you, you, you, you

JoJo:

[Minho] I know that
([Jonghyun] My baby, I love you)
I gotta get over you
That's right, that's right
([Jonghyun] My heart)

[Jonghyun] Look, just look at that look
She's almost like me, saying how it's easy to forget
[Taemin] I don't want to believe it
(Oh ah) A restless night
[Key] I'm so sick of my head hurting
[Onew] I get on my knees,
Hit my chest, and even if I cry,
Can something that can't be done be done?

JoJo! When the sad music flows
I think of you (Eh eh eh)
JoJo! Why can't I erase
A heartless you (Oh oh oh)

(Hey) My JoJo! (Love) Yes JoJo!
Stay! What did I do wrong? I, I was blind
(Hey) My JoJo! (Love) Yes JoJo!
Stay! I get trampled by both of your eyes
I, I was blind

[Minho] So many nights, I wonder why
What can I do to make it right?
Everything will be all right
So JoJo, just tell me why

[Onew] I don't want to cry (Oh, ah)
My abandoned heart gets scratched deeply
[Taemin] I'm so sick of my head hurting
[Key] 취해봐도 그 취한 속을
비워봐도, 도 안 되는 건 안되니

JoJo! When this bitter music stops
I want to send you away (Eh eh eh)
JoJo! Why can't I, why can't I
Erase a heartless you (Oh oh oh)

(Hey) My JoJo! (Love) Yes JoJo!
Stay! What did I do wrong? I, I was blind
(Hey) My JoJo! (Love) Yes JoJo!
Stay! I don't know y-yet

[Jonghyun] Baby JoJo, do you know?
The heart here is also cold!
[Onew] Baby, baby, why did you leave?
I cry and become exhausted
Waking up from a dream

JoJo! When the sad music flows
I think of you (Eh eh eh)
JoJo! Why can't I erase
A heartless you (Oh oh oh)

JoJo! When this bitter music stops
I want to send you away (Eh eh eh)
JoJo! Why can't I, why can't I
Erase a heartless you (Oh oh oh)

(Hey) My JoJo! (Love) Yes JoJo!
Stay! What did I do wrong? I, I was blind
(Hey) My JoJo! (Love) Yes JoJo!
Stay! I get trampled by both of your eyes
I, I was blind

Inkigayo comeback. different outfit ^^



Friday (16/10):

communication today was kinda easy. did on the topic food and nutrition. dont know if i have screwed up the presentation or not. anyway, lunch was eaten with limin, sheryln. vino did come and meet us but like only 15 minutes cos she was rushing. faci was another relief faci, he will be taking over this week and next week. thought he will be nice at first cos of all the jokes but he is kinda strict during 3rd meeting. so my impression of him is still bad.

afterschool, went for ASUS talk with limin and sheryln at 4.30pm. bus journey back home was so long cos of traffic conjunction. reached home like 7 plus. did my quiz during the talk but then encounter some problem with submitting the answer. but lucky still manage to resubmit for marking when i try it again at home.

comeback performance at musicbank! like finally~ super HAWT! i repeated this video for umpteen times! same goes for the MV. actually key's hairstyle is okay here, it was the make-up he had in the new album pictures that make him look weird, not the hairstyle. minho need amigo/love like oxygen hair!!!! dont like his hair now, too long!



and here is what you are waiting for!! ring ding dong MV!



so the next thing to wait for is the album release on 19 oct, 3 more days and i have already order it at cool k time. (:

Today (15/10):

web and new media communication today, i guess my brain was not working. in sleeping mode. plus the weather today is like raining. problem today on LIVESTRONG campaign to help the cancer patients.

lunch at food haven, like finally. japanese cuisine food is really not bad, why do i say so? cos i dont know is it that i'm hungry or the food is too delicious that i finish everything today. as compared to last few days, it's a great achievement. LOL.

4th to present, i dont really like the faci. her face like so-strict. somemore keep asking questions. a BIG DAMN for her.

bus-ed home after school, centipedes are so disgusting. i spot so many of it at the short cut to bus stop yesterday. lucky today it has become lesser, maybe due to rainy days? i scream like some mad person, so embarrassing. then mixuan saw me at bus 86. sorry mx, didnt see you. guess what? cos i was standing mah, then suddenly someone like kinda fall on me. then i thought who fall down, then is mx. haha.

Ring Ding Dong why are you so addictive!? i cant stop listening to this song and the MV will be out tomorrow. i cant help getting excited though i already got a glimpse of how the MV will be like from the pictures that is released today.

SO FANTASTIC FANTASTIC ELASTIC ELASTIC~~~

4 more days to 19 oct and 1 more day to comeback performance!!!

Ring Ding Dong MV TEASER! *jump around* gahhh, reminds me of DBSK.



Wednesday (14/10):

cognitive today on atomism and holism, i know you will not understand what is this 2 words? it's like aliens to me at first, one word to describe this problem, hard.

afterschool, accompany limin to rivervale plaza to see doctor. 4 more people to go before her turn so went up to kopitiam to eat first. shared indian rojak. nice. after seeing doctor, home-ed aftermath.

Today (13/10):


marketing today on opening 7 in 1 entertainment hub in sg. seems to be more difficult than last week lor, that's what i think. during 1st break, me and beryl went down to food haven to buy waffle. not bad la. had the red bean one. then 2nd break finally meet up with charmaine and company. misses. takeaway fried rice from koufu (ate the same thing yesterday) and eat at some tables outside koufu.

4th to present. it's so stress to compile ppt lor. like time is limited, must quickly compile. limin never come to school today so went home alone.

6 more days to 19 0ct and 3 more days to comeback performance at musicbank.

Monday (12/10):

maths today on solar power and yes, it killed all my braincells once again. lunch with limin, sheryln and esther at koufu. had fried rice then help abram takeaway western food. 3rd team to present.

onew's solo (the name i loved).



Today (10/10):

went kbox with limin and michelle. seriously i need to destress in order to eat well. i have not been really eating well the last few days but then i think my appetite has been better today as compared to the last few days. anyway, as promised i chose alot of william so and ronald cheng songs. super nice. HA! then afterthat, go hougang interchange to eat the cheese fries. it's a stall that is being 抢摊 by 抢摊大行动. not bad lor. then went hougang mall, shop. go to a wallet shop first. they having discount. michelle bought a wallet at $12.90. cd rama and comics connection afterthat. everytime i step into comics connection, i like go crazy over the stuff there. this time round i spot a SHINee file that costs $7.90. so i think twice whether to buy anot, in the end i didnt buy cos i thought that it was of no use since i dont have any papers to put inside. so dont waste money, why not use my remaining money for better things like their 3rd album and picture book. LOL. thanks limin for the 2 yalun baobei and 1 xiaojie honey card. (:

michelle went home aftermath while me and limin go NTUC. omg, she bought 28 cans of her favourite drink!!! seriously crazy, she bought every single can of the drink from the shelves!! damn super 夸张! even ask the staff to help her take down cos we ae so short. HA! it will solve the problem if we are as tall as yaoming. cabbed home aftermath.

just heard the SHINee new song teaser (Y.O.U - Year Of Us).

NOTHING CAN STOP ME FROM LOVING YOU~~~~~

9 more days!

Friday (9/10):

finally come to the last weekdays. communications today, grouped with shermeen, richy and han sheng but yvonne was absent. why so little people came today? only 16 came! so, i personally think i screwed the presentation. cos i forgot what i want to say when i'm going to present! damn. that's why i talk crap.

after school while me, limin and esther are waiting for sheryln at W4 first floor. i saw isabel and atiqah. haha. one after another. it's been more than a month since i last saw them. missed W16J. anyway, stayed back in school to study maths with limin, esther and sheryln. did practice questions. jade came after about 15 to 20 minutes. then sheryln went off first. suddenly, jade's lappy got problem logging into user account. same problem as mine. haha. then i help her solve using the steps that i have taken down that time. managed to solve (: then esther was hungry after studying for an hour or so, so accompany her go south food court buy food while limin teach jade maths. went home ard 6.

love this tae min's new hairstyle as compared to the romeo hairstyle.

Today (8/10):

web and new media communication today. my faci is a indian lady. grouped with sandy, hadziq, nicholas and richy. should say today's problem statement is kinda easy, is to choose the best online web tools to promote a carnival that will be in RP. and we chose facebook.

lunch at koufu with limin, had chicken chop with rice, fries, beans. so much right? guess how much was it? $3.40!! super cheap but didnt manage to finish. and oh ya, didnt get to meet charmaine, isabel and company help her takeaway. next time ba!

1st team to present, cos we chose to go first. was feeling sleepy hearing rest of the 4 presentations. Zzzz. i got to say this marketing faci is not that kind, sadly! she keep rushing us to upload, ARGH!

Monday (5/10):

first day of school reopen. meet limin at 7.15am, 15 minutes early! guess what? still almost late. before going to school, limin went to takeaway mac breakfast. W4 lift there is super packed. i hate taking lift. so me and limin had make an agreement, if tomorrow reach school before 8.20am then we take lift, if not take staircase.

so new classmates of W46D was not bad, but W16J is still the best. first one is always the best, agree? maths II today, grouped with abram, hadziq and yvonne. today's problem is sooo much like science, about wind speed and stuff. my brain almost went died. lucky no science module this semester!!! then 2nd break, meet-up with limin again for lunch at south food court. had curry yong tau foo but i was not in a good appetite today. just dont feel hungry despite a bowl of my favourite food infront of me. maybe the taste of the curry today is weird? plus i spot a strand of short hair inside!! disgusting, just feel like puking so didnt eat much at all. just ate the ingredients. coincidentally both of us have no appetite.

3th team to present. okay okay ba, this maths faci (take over this week only) is not so naggy, not those keep asking questions one or just shoot one question to a person that kinda of faci. ended ard 3.45pm. causeway point afterthat with limin, went yoshinoya. kinda like a make-up lunch, had the congee. home-ed aftertmath.

oh yea, i suddenly miss the time i have with charmaine and company (W16J) during lunch break, all the crapping and stuff. and i missed charmaine's laughter.
