candid class pictures

21st october 08, tuesday

eh, gosh! woke up at 1045am today. so rushed to school for fashion forecast and showed the lecturer my key items. she commented good, so, so far so good. so went school canteen for lunch, then off the library to wait for elective lesson to start.

nurul was doing her computerized assignments while mai, ashley and myself were chatting about secondary school lifes. really miss those days of being young and mischievous, fooling around. the thrill of avoiding teachers of getting caught when did something wrong. haha.

went for oral comm lesson. after class, went to bind my research report and handed up. bus-ed home.

there are some of the past pictures we took after lesson. (:

recent updates~

16th october 08, thursday

late for sewing class. so didn't go. messaged ashley and she went for class, but didn't bring her skirt to school to sew. joke of the day la. lmao. so practically, she's got nothing to do in class but to rot. so we planned to go to town to walk.

little mouse ashley sneaked out of class and meet me in taka. went to art friend to buy paper for our research diary project. after buying our stuffs, went around town like paragon and heeren to walk around.

afterwards, cabbed over to school to meet nurul for lunch. went PD lesson after that and after class i was having minor gastric pain. it was painful, couldn't walk fast. so darwin, ashley and i went to eat mango sago over at the usual dessert shop. and went to the new hongkong cafe-liked to try their food.

went home afterwards.

17th october 08, friday

woke up and ashley messaged me if i'm going for comm skills lesson. wanted to, but may be late. so we decided to share cab, its much cheaper that way. so went prepare after i'm done, its already 11am. so no matter which way the cab uncle drove us to, it will never make it in time. so ashley decided to go see a doc and get a mc instead.

i continue to cab to school straight. so reached school at 1130am. what's hilarious is, as i was late, the lecturer in the room was like talking very loudly and from the look from outside, there's seems to be quite many people in the class seated inside. so imagine i open the door and.. very weird. so decided not to enter and went lan session in park lane.

after class, meet darwin, harish and shaun to discuss our comm skills project. went to play basketball in school for a while. harish went home after finished playing while darwin and i went to park lane to play dota. bus-ed home after playing lan.

19th october 08, sunday

oh man~ i just woke up. slept at around 6am last night. didn't went out for the whole weekends. staying at home playing dota, sleeping and rushing school assignments. was doing my research last night, finally managed to finish everything on research. left with PD, forecast, new textile: eco-friendly project, sewing and comm skills project. darn, still so many left.

its been quite long since i last went sentosa and swimming. shall make time for it. (:

off to plaza singapura with classmates

14th october 08, monday

monday blues! can't wake up in time today for computerized techniques class. so skipped it. were at home doing my computerized assignment. well, ashley just thinks that i'm bullshitting when i say, 'my heart is always with the class, though i'm absence from class'. lol.

so bus-ed to school for the next reseach lesson. nothing much to do, so after class, nurul, ashley, darwin and myself cabbed over to plaza singapura. had kfc for lunch. went spotlight to do fashion forecast as darwin heads back to school.

went tcc to slack afterwards. nurul headed back home while ashley and i walked around the mall, waiting for the time to pass. ashley's waiting for her friend, so accompanied her till her friend arrived.

had devil's chocolate cake for snack. not very nice. i still prefer starbuck's.

frankestein drink for nurul and ashley. not very nice either~

train-ed home afterwards.

mr.banana

11th october 08, saturday

spending half of my weekend on the bed. waking up at 5plus in the evening. was alone at home, called dad and mum to buy dinner back for me. mcdonald's double cheese burger ~ ^^

nafa sports day; party's over for kandi bar

10th october 08, friday

final one more project down, which is sewing. managed to complete the whole damn thing yesterday. sports day today, dun feel like going, but went. met darwin and cabbed there. ashley is like so lucky to overslept to miss it. damn it. lol.

whole event was like crap. but a little fun. after sports day, went to the mac near khatib to have lunch with darwin and shaun. bus-ed home afterwards.

following video was taken when chew hanlim was playing with the rodeo bull thingy. 

Party's over for Kandi Bar

alright previously was MOS, now KANDI BAR by hed kandi is closed down too. due to the linkage of court issues with the contract based MOS with the UK's. here's the source:

FIRST, Ministry of Sound (MOS) dance club closed on Monday after its last party last Saturday. Now, mainboard-listed LifeBrandz has also shut down its chic Kandi Bar by Hed Kandi.

The two-year-old Kandi Bar in Clarke Quay opened here in late 2006. It got its name from the cult music brand Hed Kandi.

Occupying over 111 sq m, Kandi Bar, which featured downtempo dance music, was a popular hangout for young professionals.

When contacted, LifeBrandz executive vice-president Bernard Lim did not say what will become of Kandi Bar's premises. He would only say MOS' premises will be undergoing renovation soon and will reopen in December.

MOS and Hed Kandi are franchised brands belonging to London-based MSHK Group (formerly MOS Holdings). It owns brands such as MOS, Hed Kandi, Euphoria and Global Underground.

The closure of the two clubs comes at a time when the two parties are entangled in a lawsuit.

MOS International has alleged that LB Investments - a wholly owned subsidiary of Lifebrandz that ran MOS - had violated its licensing guidelines, including not playing the right genre of music and not maintaining a stable website.

MOS International also said LifeBrandz's focus had been on promoting its stable of other nightclubs in Clarke Quay such as Fashion Bar and Lunar.

British-based Nimbus Holdings, which owns the MSHK Group and MOS International, has also sued LifeBrandz, alleging infringement of Nimbus' registered trademark comprising the logo.

Mr Lim said on Tuesday that LifeBrandz has instructed its law firm Tan Kok Quan Partnership to file a claim against MOS International in Singapore this week.

club scenes in singapore is dying down. stop closing anymore clubs! lol~ 

Bye Bye MOS!

6th october 08, monday

4.10am now and i am still working on my projects. 3 presentations tmr. wth~! i need my beauty sleep! shucks~ hate it when gotta stayed up late to rush projects. anyway, shall blog a little first. PEOPLE, GUESS WHAT?! MOS closed down! :( last saturday, 4th october was their very last party. no wonder they sent me and sms to invite me over with 2 complimentary entry.

drinks were fucking cheap that night. heard guests were allowed to bring unconsumed alcohols back home too. shit man, didn't went down that night. guess MOS is history now. well, here's the source:

SINGAPORE: The curtains have come down on Singapore’s Ministry of Sound (MOS). Lifebrandz Limited, which brought the popular club to Singapore in 2005, announced in a statement that it was ceasing MOS’ operations from October 6.

ADVERTISEMENT

The two—storey nightclub just hosted Ferrari F1 driver Felipe Massa two weekends ago.

Lifebrandz said it had terminated its licence agreement with MOS’ UK—based brand owner, Ministry of Sound International Limited, in accordance with the terms of their contract.

Lifebrandz added it had also instructed its lawyers to file a lawsuit against the Ministry of Sound International Limited in the Singapore High Court.

But Lifebrandz is retaining tenure of the 38,000 square foot space in Clarke Quay.

It plans to turn it into another night entertainment venue different from the Ministry of Sound. Details are expected in the next few weeks. — CNA/vm

no more MOS. no more gatherings for the "kiao toes". lol~ okay, back to my project now~ -.-

project runway us~

9th september 08, tuesday

woke up quite early today. suppose to go to school to do my sewing. but was too lazy to go to school. so dragged my time with playing games and slacking around first. only around 2pm, bus-ed to school.

went to do my sewing and after 5pm, accompanied nurul to do her pattern making. ashley left half way as she's meeting her friend. as we are ending, nurul and i became bored and started designing bikini. lol. damn hilarious la. here's the pic of our limited ed bikini. anyone wants it? LOL!

bus-ed home after leaving school. in front of me, there's this couple and the guy's from acjc as he's wearing uniform while the gf is wearing home clothing. they are like showing their affection in the public area and like kissing passionately with each other in front of all the passengers in the bus. and they are like directly in front of me. wth? very distracting la, and it lasted for quite long. free show anyway. lol.

got home, was so damn sleepy. slept for awhile after having dinner. woke up and here i am, blogging. lol. i wanna go swimming tmr, but who's free to accompany me? :(

finally, my blog's able to view in IE mode. found out the root of the problem. but there's still a little error in the template opacity, which it turns out fine viewing with mozilla firefox and safari. IE always giving problems. sighed..

dinner with wendy oh~!

8th september 08, monday

holiday starts! gonna earn some money during these 2 weeks. work was last minute cancelled today coz there's sufficient manpower already. so was like slacking at home nothing better to do. called up gerald to go for swimming. but was already quite late at 4pm, so decided to postpone it.

played dota all day and other online games. i'm so freaking bored. called up wendy and meet her up for dinner. bus-ed to serangoon gardens chomp chomp for dinner. had seafood and carrot cake and a super big sized sugarcane! yum yum la~!

half way eating, rain starts pouring heavily. after dinner, bus-ed back to serangoon north and sent wendy home first. talked alot today. knew lots of things. oh ya, saw weileong after drawing money from the atm.

the lift in wendy's block is so creepy especially at night. i sweared i heard something and the lift is acting strange tonight. _|_ whatever the ghost haunting the lift there. tmr's school~ sewing. -.-

sick~ down with fever.

4th september 08, thursday

its been raining non stop for like !$%@(*&^ days. weather is so cold! when weather is bad + not enough of beauty sleep due to excessive of assignments + waking up very early in the morning because of school + improper meals = sick. woke up not feeling very well just yet. body aching here and there. didnt paid any attention to it and just went to school.

sewing is so confusing. extreme hard work for me. after sewing, myself, ashley and nurul cabbed to plaza singapura to have lunch. cabbed back after lunch as well. waited for my fav PD to start. PD is always fun. lessons never boring for me. 

after PD, walked to arab street to buy fabrics for tmr's pattern making class. we're suppose to sew a skirt out of the fabrics we bought. so scout around and finally found fabrics with nice designs. ashley and i bought ours and nurul didnt buy, as she finds it was quite expensive.

went to kampong galm cafe to have dinner. joked around. was funny when ashley was laughing at her own topic she was talking. (whistled, run to mosque, bring pig inside) LOL! cb sia. LMAO!

finished dinner around 8plus. was feeling damn unwell. fever developing. took cab home. reached home, fever rose to 38.3 degrees. headache and bodyache. so didnt do any work and just went to sleep. get well soon, rodney.

5th september 08, friday

woke up at 10am and i'm having lesson at 11am! so damn unwell and didn't want to miss school today because of pattern making. cabbed to school and reached around 1125am. comm skills lesson was so damn boring. the lecturer practically like talking to himself LOUDLY and laughed about it. only few and the same old people entertained him by answering his questions. 

was so sleepy and tired and wanted to get out of the class as soon as possible.  shortly lesson ended. assignment given and presentation next week! sian half! tutorial week which means holiday, still needs to come back! wtf.

pair work, darwin with harish, ashley with nurul, cheryl with annie, so i paired with calorine. went to have lunch with cheryl and ashley at the wanton mee stall in sunshine plaza. nurul's not in school today for some reasons. lazy to write here. lol.

after lunch, went to do pattern making with ashley and cheryl. 2pm, cheryl went to her sewing class while we started our pattern making class. we cut our fabrics today. keep poking myself with the needles to my fingers. so fuck la. stupid needles. _|_

finally done. after class, went to dessert house in peace center for mango sago with ashley and darwin!!! haven't been there for quite sometime. bus-ed home with darwin and ashley bus-ed to toa payoh to meet her friends.

2nd september 08, tuesday

its september! can you believe it? time really flies faster than i could imagine?! it seems to me that i just started school just not long ago which is like in july, and now september. projects' been coming in one after another. STRESS!

after one's down, another one coming out and due-ing soon. like wtf? anyway, today's like a total rush day for me. woke up in the morning pretty early and realised, "WTF!? i slept for the whole entire night from yesterday till now and i forgotten to do my fashion forecast project which we have to hand in today!" panicked for a moment and just went bath and prepare.

brought lappy with me and chiong out to school. took bus today and did my inspiration board in bus using the lappy to do in photoshop. bet many bus-goers were looking at me while i'm doing, but i couldn't care less anyway, project more important. haha.

so went sch, attend textile lesson, briefed on the next project. faashion forecast, didn't attend, went to complete the fashion forecast assignment in the free-access com lab. manage to hand in on time. the lecturer once again briefed us on the next project. -.-" projects seems never ending. sighed...

went for lunch at some food court. forgot the name. then accompanied nadia to watson in parklane which we all don't feel like going at all. double sighed. walked back to school and went library. went to watch some of the past nafa graduation show. you guys should go watch it, it seems like a comedy show to me. fucking hilarious!

went oral comm at 3pm. after lesson, bus-ed home. saw christopher in bus. 

and today's mingshuang's birthday! HAPPY BIRTHDAY! :DDD may all your dreams come true and gd luck in your Os too! (: best wishes.
