Rosuto Kitsune

And so this fox turns 20...

2011-11-14T22:14:00.006+08:00

Wow, it sure has been a long time since I've posted on this blog. Been busy with studies and FYP (UGH), and I'm kinda lazy to update my blog too 8D

So anyway! Today I turn 20! Yeah. It's gonna be weird to start writing my age with a 2 in front instead of a 1. I'M OLD =A=

It is a weird feeling lol~ I think 50 people wished me happy birthday on my fb wall so far, haha! XD Does give you a warm feeling inside when your friends remember your birthday :3 Got a shark plushie from Alfred, Ryan and JJ as a birthday present though! IT'S SO CUTEEEEE :3
(photos on fb haha~)

Haven't named it yet but I dunno what name to give it though. It has a nickname: Spazzing shark [or just Spazz shark (cause a certain someone can't stop spazzing about it 8D)]. Any suggestions for its name? :3

I went to AFA last Saturday and Sunday; event was held at Suntec's Halls 402-404. Only one word to describe the event: CROWDED D8 So difficult to walk from one end to another end cause we had to squeeze through so many people just to walk to one spot. Did manage to find some of my friends among the crowd though, and I bought a ticket on Saturday (the $8 one) to go into the halls. Not much to see in there cause it was crowded (as always) and kinda boring :/

Hm...looks like I should work on my formal report now. Shall post more on AFA (if I can remember >.< ) next time! This fox bids you good night~

Cheers,
Luca

Late entry is late :/

2011-04-20T22:52:00.007+08:00

...Oh dear. It has been quite a long time since I updated this blog, eh? Sorry about that, I was lazy, and busy with school stuff and other things. >_>

So anyway, I got through the exams last semester all right (thank goodness, the modules were really tough D: ) and had my six weeks of itp during my six weeks of holidays. Didn't get to enjoy my holidays cause of that and school started right after my itp. ITP was all right though, since my itp was in SP at the Advanced Materials Technology Centre (AMTC) which was at T12. Pretty lucky cause it's connected to the MRT station so I can just rush over real quick if I woke up late.

The new academic year started this Monday, and now I'm a third year poly student. Feels like time passed by too fast cause I still can't believe that I'm a senior now. Where did all the time go? :/ At least my timetable is kinda better now compared to the timetables for the past two academic years.

I went to SOYC 2011 at Ngee Ann Poly Convention Centre on 9th April (that would be week 5 of my itp), and it was pretty cool, though the weather was rather warm. Pretty much wandered around the place and tried looking for some of my friends, including Invinc. Turns out he was backstage when my friends and I reached the place so I waited for him to appear on stage. :3

He managed to win the solo cosplay competition for SOYC too. ^^ Did a real good job of cosplaying as Solid Snake. We pretty much hanged out after that and said hi to all the cosplayers we knew. After that, I left the place to meet Alfred and Oliver for dinner at Marina Square. Couldn't really recognise Oliver at first cause he was wearing a cap and his skin was all dark due to the 2 weeks at Tekong. Dinner was pretty good, though Oliver had a sore throat and he couldn't really taste anything.

All right, I shall stop here for now because I've to sleep early tonight, 9am elective lesson tomorrow. Funny how my elective class has only 14 people cause everyone else in our stage took Advanced Organic Chemistry instead. 8D This fox bids you all goodnight and sweet dreams.

Cheers,
Luca

Merry Christmas~ 2010 is going to end soon! :3

2010-12-24T23:55:00.022+08:00

Merry Christmas~! I haven't updated my blog for so long lol because I was busy studying for my MST papers (one was really cmi D: ).

Anyway, I watched Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 with Oliver on 20 Nov. It was quite good though Oliver was a little disturbed by a certain scene in the movie. 8D I did get annoyed at some parts because I did read the book (I have all 7 books at home). The dance scene between Harry and Hermione was really sweet and sad, quite touching too.

After the movie, we went to the Gotochi Kitty Fiesta at Parco. I don't really like Hello Kitty but the ones on display were really cute. Too bad Oliver couldn't find the Date Masamune Hello Kitty cause it might have been a limited edition item, according to the Japanese lady at the exhibition. I did buy a keychain with Ishida Mitsunari's crest on it which was around $6, will be attaching it onto my phone soon. ^^

After that, I went to STGCC which was at Suntec once my MST papers were over. Since my last paper was on the 1st day of STGCC, I went on Day 2 and 3 instead (11 & 12 Dec). It was pretty good, though there were a lot of Vocaloid cosplayers (as usual). Didn't really buy much but I got a free sketch from Keatopia's artist (booth was located to the left of the entrance). :3

The sign said "Free sketch of your favourite character" so I decided to ask him for a sketch of Final Fantasy VIII Sephiroth. Li Ling asked for a free sketch too but we had to wait really long because he had to draw and sign whenever someone bought their art book. I hanged out with Invinc and his friends while waiting for the sketches till 8 pm but it turns out that the artist still had a lot of drawings to do before he could start on our drawings so I had to go back the next day to get it.

It was a little awkward and weird for me cause Honey was all, "You're so cute~ can I hug you? :3 ". Why does everyone say that anyway? I've lost count of the number of times I have been hugged/patted on the head/carried by people lol. ._.

Elaine (not the FCC Elaine lol) was really pretty in her Miku costume, though I don't know which version that was at first (Infinite Holic version). We held hands and walked around level 3...must have looked like a scene where the big sister holds the little sister's hand and walks around together LOL. It was really surprising when she was able to carry Invinc off the ground a little ( O_O I can't even carry Rayna!) and later on Invinc carried Honey (who was cosplaying as Allen Walker) who did a silly pose involving her pointing towards the ceiling lol. 8D

On Day 3, I went back to get the two free sketches from the artist of Keatopia. Managed to get in because Elaine had given me her 3-day ticket as she was too tired to go on Day 3. After that, I went to EOY at RP with Invinc via cab...it was quite late by the time we got there, though there were still a lot of cosplayers around. Met up with JQ, Eric and Li Ling cause Invinc went to find his friends, and then Rayna appeared in her Ciel costume (from Kuroshitsuji. I don't watch it though). She suddenly bent down and carried me (I swear, I'm going to become so used to this sooner or later >_> ) for a short while before walking around with her friends. Saw Sherry and Jason running around the place too. In conclusion, EOY was so-so for me..though that's because I went there really late. :x

Eric's 21st birthday chalet was held on 14 Dec at Costa Sands Resort~as I had helped out the day before, I knew that it was kinda small so I was worried about how many people would be around cause of the limited space. It was quite fun though I did get annoyed by the lack of internet connection and the fact that Eric's ITE friend Stanley kept flirting. I don't like pick-up lines, though I wasn't the only one who was annoyed. >_>

After that, I went to Alfred's 21st birthday chalet on Saturday together with JQ and Invinc. It was my first time in Aranda Country Club so I was impressed by how big the chalet was. O: We went there in the afternoon and as the food wasn't ready yet, we decided to sit down and watch some old Channel 8 dramas lol. It was the first time I met Donna (though she's on my FB) so it was interesting. XD

I got carried a lot by the others while waiting for the food to be ready lol...especially by Invinc. 8D I wonder if it's that nice to carry me lol....maybe it's due to my height and weight. I am pretty light and my NSF friends keep talking about how I can fit into their army bag. Sigh. :x The cake and food were really good~ chocolate cake ftw. Got him Inception for his birthday since it's such an awesome movie. :3

Well, I'll stop here for now because I'm tired..Merry Christmas everyone! :3

Cheers,
Luca

Fox turns 19

2010-11-10T23:28:00.011+08:00

...Yeah. I haven't been updating my blog, yeah? I've been lazy and kinda busy due to school to update lol.

Anyway, I'm now 19! Feels kind of weird cause you start to realise that you're getting older and everything isn't as simple as it was before. Graduation's around a year away and it gets me thinking about the future: what university and course do I want to get into, should I work before going into university, future career, family life....it kinda hits you all at once. Just got to take one step at a time in life, yeah? Thinking too much about the future is no good. :3

My secondary school friends paid $50 for my Metal Gear Solid Walkman Player (NWZ-W252CAMO) from Sony, thank you so much guys! (And sorry for dragging you guys all over the place just to find it ._. ) I didn't really get any other presents but I'm happy cause everyone remembered my birthday and left a note on my FB wall or said "Happy Birthday" to me at AFA. I love you guys. :3

Speaking of AFA, I went there on both days but only went into the convention hall on Day 1 (thanks to the freshie who had a free ticket). It was interesting but I didn't find anything I wanted...Kenneth wanted to buy a present for me but the only Kingdom Hearts figurine they had was of Sephiroth, and I don't really need figurines. :/ Obsessed Kingdom Hearts fangirl here, lololol. 8D

In terms of cosplay, there were awesome cosplayers around...though I got annoyed due to the wall of photographers everywhere and the huge crowd. Stayed in Hall 404 most of the time with my friends and saw lots of Vocaloid cosplayers (too many, in my opinion). There were two Sephiroth cosplayers around, though one of them was half-naked (omg >///< ). I don't remember seeing such awesome Sephiroth cosplayers around (then again, I did go to cosplay events pretty late...started going to events at the end of 08), it was awesome. I really liked the big black wing both of them had on the back of their costumes. :3

Ah~ AFA X was seriously awesome. All the awesome cosplayers around...it makes me really want to join in the fun (haven't really done much for my costume; it's been a year or so =A= ). I'm thinking of doing my Rena cosplay first, but I need to find the boots and hat first...hopefully it won't be too expensive cause I'm still saving up money~ :3

Can't think of what else to say now except for the fact that I'm still stoning away due to AFA~ 8D It's been a long time since I wrote a wall of text for my blog posts, but I think this post isn't long enough to be one though. I'm thinking of changing the template for this blog too...I love foxes but this template is a little too dull-looking and small. I'll try to find a better one soon once I finish revising for the upcoming MSTs (oh god no D:! ) and finish up my school assignments too.

Right, that should be all for this post... This fox bids you goodnight. :3

Cheers,

Kitsune

Non, je ne regrette rien

2010-08-13T02:36:00.005+08:00

Non, je ne regrette rien.
No, I regret nothing.

At this point in time...no words can fully express how I feel. No matter what happens from now on, I will never forget everything, all the good memories would always be in my heart.

Things could never go back to how they were before, but at the very least...you would always have a place in my heart. We could never go back to the way we were before, but at the very least, I hope that your hand will still be there for me as a friend, no matter what happens.

If I could turn back time, I wouldn't do it anyway because I would never erase all the good memories we had. Even when it tears me up now and my tears fall, I believe that one day I will be able to look back without regrets. And that you would still be there as my friend.

Non, je ne regrette rien.
No, I regret nothing.

I will never regret it.

12 August 10 - 1 year, 2 months, 6 days.
Non, je ne regrette rien.

Finally an update to this Fox's blog...

2010-05-13T22:54:00.004+08:00

...Yeah. Been busy with school work so I haven't been updating, and I dunno what to write anyway.

Anyway, I went for Victoria Junior College's Japanese Traditional Tea Appreciation Workshop on Tuesday, and it was really fun~ :3 Learnt a lot more about the tea ceremony, and the wagashi was nice. The lady who was explaining about the tea ceremony through presentation slides is from NUS Japanese Studies, so I asked her about the course...I wanna get into that course when I graduate from poly :3

Work keeps piling up what with all the datasheets which we have to do for our practicals, but I'm still suffering from L4D-withdrawal and my brain keeps telling me to play, sigh. At least I've been doing my work and not touching L4D, hehe. :3

That's all for now, hehe. Goodnight~ :3

Cheers,
Kitsune

Hau~! Fox with new hairstyle! :3

2010-03-07T17:17:00.005+08:00

Yesh, you read that correctly. I got a new hairstyle! :3

Google "Ryuuguu Rena" to see how it looks like. 8D I love Higurashi no Naku Koro ni~ I'll post a photo up on FB, but those with no FB can ask me for the photo if you want to. :3

Holidays are here~ I shall work during the holidays in order to earn some money. :3

Argh stupid fringe, why can't you just stay in one place?! D:! (fringe keeps moving back to the other side ._. )

I have no idea what to write now...brain-dead. I need to write more wall-of-text posts. :X

I shall write till here for now then. See you~

Cheers,
Kitsune

Confused thoughts

2010-02-23T00:45:00.003+08:00

Oh hey. It has been some time since my last post, huh. :3 Exams are coming...starting this Wednesday, to be exact. I shall do my best for them~ :3

And like the title says, yes, I am confused. Too many things going on, too little time for me to process all of them. Kinda wish that I could just go somewhere and scream my lungs out with no one caring, but meh, Singapore is small. :/

And I be the SPJCC Quartermaster once the new AY starts~ All those who sign out of the box on my lists shall sign extra >:3 (Army style LOL 8D ) I feel nervous and worried about the fact that we're taking over once the current committee steps down, but they'll still be there as advisory committee and everyone will help each other, so it'll be fine. :3

Emo emo emo emo emo- just kidding. :3 I shall find a temporary job for the holidays after exams end...hopefully Daiso will hire me :3

All right, I got to go sleep so that I can wake up to do more studying. This fox bids you good night and sweet dreams. :3

Cheers,
Kitsune

Start of a New Year

2010-01-03T19:41:00.003+08:00

Wow...it's 2010 now. Time seems to fly by, doesn't it? Term 4 of AY09/10 is starting tomorrow...sigh. :X

Some SPJCC members stayed over in school on 31st December to celebrate, including me. :3 It was pretty okay for a last-minute event, though I couldn't sleep due to the middle lights of the classroom being on. DDD: Kept fidgeting too due to my stomach being full of gas for no good reason...must be due to the Sprite I drank before sleeping. D:

Gu Gu the Cat is a nice movie~ Cute kitty :3 There were some parts of the movie that made us laugh so hard 8D

Feel like playing more L4D and L4D2, but I've to finish up most of my school assignments first...did some revision during the holidays too. :3

L4D and L4D2 are awesome~ :3

Hm.....can't think of anything else to say. This fox bids you goodnight for now. :3

Cheers,
Kitsune

Start of Holidays for this Fox

2009-12-15T15:54:00.003+08:00

Well, MST week was last week (I had only three papers to sit for, so my holidays started last Thursday). It was all right, though I wish I could re-do my CPPB paper. X_X

It's the three-weeks holidays now, but we're still swamped with loads of school assignments and revision. :X I'm planning to finish most of them by this week so that I'll be able to relax a little (Engineering Maths I tutorials suck >_> ). Last term was crazy due to the amount of work we had, and I nearly went insane due to the lack of time we had to finish the assignments. :X

I'll be going for EOY 09 on the 26th anyway, and I've already paid for the ticket. :3 Looking forward to seeing everyone there~ Cosplay events are fun. :3

Christmas is coming soon...I've never celebrated Christmas before, but it'll be nice if I could give a gift to one or two friends (if I knew what to get for them >.< ). There's also my budget to think about...saving up for a HDD and clothes now. :X

All right, I got to get back to my assigments. Damn you, RWP. I hate doing citation for reports. :X

Cheers,
Kitsune

Wishing upon A Star...

2009-12-05T22:50:00.005+08:00

It's been some time since I last blogged...not going to write much because I need to study for CPPB. MST week is next week, and I've four papers to study for. :X I hope that I can do it...

Mind's all messed up now, thinking about too many things right now. :X It's kind of weird yet interesting when you realise that you're growing up and all sorts of thoughts form in your mind...

And I'm not going to slow down. It's about time I grew up. :3

Goodnight. 8D

Cheers,
Kitsune

(Need to study...will update next time. Yay for confusing posts 8DDD )

Fox is finally 18 :3

2009-11-14T00:24:00.002+08:00

HELL YEAH I'M FREAKING 18! WOOT! :3

I be legal to drink alcohol and watch M18 movies (like Inglourious Basterds)! Yay~ :3

Mm...I feel like buying a bottle of sake to celebrate, haha. :3

This school term is pretty stressful so far...it's week 4 now, but work piles up on us every week so I've been in a bad mood recently. :X At least I've studied a little for each module and I usually manage to finish most of the work every week, so I can take some time to relax.

Hm...not much to say at the moment, so this fox shall bid you all goodnight and sweet dreams~ :3

Cheers,
Kitsune

Yet another update for this fox's blog...

2009-10-31T22:40:00.008+08:00

Hey... haven't updated this blog for some time (then again, everyone knows that I don't update my blog often >_> ). My school schedule sucks this semester...though it seems to be just like last semester's, only more packed. :X

I went for Festival Games Preview and Inaba Tea Party (both are club events) last week, which was pretty good. Got two water balloons from the Festival Games Preview :3 (Yoyo-tsuri~), and Inaba Tea Party was fun. We got to eat the bunny okashi~ :3

I CAN HAS BUNNIES? :3

(Yes the fox has finally gotten the bunnies! :3 )

The bunny was so cute and yummy~ kind of regret eating it though, it was too adorable to be eaten! D: Tea was good too...just realised that I really miss Japanese tea. :3 Chado FTW.

Project Toshokan was fun too, I pretty much raided the history section of Kinokuniya. XDDDDD Took Taiko (yay! :3 ), a few books on Japanese history, one on Joan of Arc, two on Henry VIII, and two books on Che Guevara (Che FTW! Just started reading up on him). :3 I would have taken more books, but the lecturers told us to avoid taking the bigger-sized books (like the book Samurai). D: Must. Raid. Kinokuniya's. History. Section. AGAIN.

This fox shall stop here for now and bid you all good night and sweet dreams. :3 (Since I have stuff to do... >_> )

Cheers,
Kitsune

Start of a new semester...but this fox doesn't really want to go back to school D:

2009-10-18T22:51:00.003+08:00

D:

Dammit. Semester 2 starts tomorrow... which means new lecturers, new modules and studying time. D:

It's going to be a tough semester, since I'll have to study hard. Not to mention that I've been selected for JCC's subcommittee (I think they should be holding a subcomm meeting soon), so that's responsibility added to the pile. :/

Oh well, got to work hard~

Will be going for Festival Games Preview on Wednesday and Inaba Tea Party on Friday (both events are held in school), so at least the first week won't be that bad. :3

This fox bids you all good night and sweet dreams (because I have to wake up early, school starts at 9. >_> ). :3

Cheers,
Kitsune

A bored fox...

2009-10-17T00:34:00.006+08:00

-pokes dead blog-

....I am bored. >_>

Not much to talk about right now, just going to talk about recent events (because I am a lazy ass, and don't feel like spamming words that are not related to the events at the moment).

1) Movie outing with secondary school friends, 28 September
Went out with Esther and the others to watch a movie at Tampines, since I haven't seen or talked to them for some time. I wanted to watch Inglourious Basterds, but as I'm not 18 yet ( dammit! D< ), we ended up watching The Ugly Truth, which was pretty hilarious. 8D

2) NUS Comics and Animation Society Bazaar, 1 October
...Didn't really enjoy this one. It had the same feeling as the Japan Fair. D<
And why was the ramune so expensive?! $3.50 (if I remember correctly) for one?! WTH?! D<
I know that it's the glass bottle kind, but the one I got from the Japan Fair wasn't that expensive (around $2, I believe). I rather stick to the ramune bottles from Daiso... :/

3) SPJCC Chalet, 5-7 October
Chalet was okay, except for the fact that it was kinda small. D: The satay from Day 1 was awesome though, couldn't stop eating it. XD
Hashbrowns were okay too, though they broke apart too easily. :/

4) FCC Saizeriya Food Trip, 12 October
It was a joint event by FCC and JCC. :3 I didn't really like the food there (I be a picky eater. ._. ), so I ended up having a plate of potato wedges. The others had a lot of fun playing with their food later on though. >_>
Kept putting all sorts of things into the soup... It looked disgusting. D<

5) JCC 2nd Movie Screening, 15 October
We watched Helen the Baby Fox (Kogitsune Helen) instead of The Girl Who Leapt Through Time, because I've watched the latter (though I didn't really pay attention to the movie when I watched it that time >_> ). The baby fox was so adorable~ :3
It was really sad when the fox died in the end, though. ._. Jamie and I ended up crying at that part.

Feeling tired...this fox shall stop here for now, and bids you all good night. :3

Cheers,
Kitsune

Much needed update for this Fox's blog....

2009-09-29T23:18:00.004+08:00

Yay, Blogger is back to normal. :3

Anyway, I shall list out the events which I've attended after Cosfest till now with a short (hopefully) description of each, if I can still remember it.

1) Chado @National Museum of Singapore, 18 July
This was a very interesting event, a chado demostration by this Japanese lady who has been practising for many years. She is also skilled at flower arrangement. Best parts about the event? Being able to drink the tea and eat the okashi (sweet), learning a little about the history of tea and watching the lady prepare the tea. :3

2) Chado @ JAS, 19 July
This event was held at the Japanese Association of Singapore (JAS), and Big Bro (Qubic) was able to get only 3 tickets so he, Mos and I went for it. Was very nervous during the whole time as the atmosphere was pretty quiet and we were part of the few Singaporeans at this event. ._.
It was quite interesting though, and I've learnt more about chado. (Bet you can tell that I'm serious about chado, haha.)

3) SPJCC Yukata Witchhunt, 1 August
Not much to say about this one. We went around the central area of Singapore to look at yukatas. :3 Some shops had really nice designs, but most of them were quite expensive, naturally. Main highlight of this event? Moving around in a group of 23 people...and half of the group was separated when we took the train to Bugis. 8D

4) CosCon @ SG Toy & Comic Con 09, 15-16 August
CosCon was okay. Alfred came with his pink MANLY rifle, LOL. -facepalm- The whole event was okay, thought the atmosphere wasn't really right for cosplay (it was too serious inside the hall on the 15th, if I remember correctly). Had fun with Alfred, Invinc and the others. :3

5) Natsumatsuri 09, 22 August
NICE EVENT. :3
Cyrus did my make-up and hair before helping me put on the yukata. :3 (Kinda still miss my eyebrows >_> )
The chocolate Japanese pancakes they had there were awesome. :3 Too bad I bought only two... D: And my almond cookies (Pokka brand, lol) went missing when I was packing up my stuff, rawr. D<
The whole event was really awesome, though I didn't dance. A shame, really. ._.
Oh, and one more thing. The food queues were INSANE. Really. D<

6) GMSS Thanksgiving, 5 September
Not much to say about this one. As I missed Teacher's Day due to one of my exam papers falling on that day ( D: ), I decided to take this opportunity to go back to my secondary and primary schools to look for my teachers. The carnival was pretty fun actually, and they even had fake horses for kids to ride on for my secondary school's carnival. 8DDD
Managed to find Papa (Mr Teo), Daddy (Mr Kee), Mummy (Miss Nainee), Mr Gage, Mr Chua and Miss Johnson (she cut her hair, WTH? @_@ ). Didn't manage to find Mrs Selvam and Mrs Theseira though, they were too busy. D:

7) Trip to An Otaku's House (Eric's house), 13 September
LOL. Unofficial club event. 8D We've been planning this for some time, ever since Eric showed us photos of his room. Hence the name Otaku House; the walls had tons of anime posters and lots of manga could be seen on his shelves. 8DDD
Played Monopoly for most of the afternoon, Katherine was the one with the most money (she's a business woman, all right. 8D ) while I was second. 8D Ended up going bankrupt in the end, haha. XD It was pretty fun. :3

8) JAS Recycle Bazaar, 12 September
Ugh. I had to wake up so early for this one, but didn't manage to get anything good from it. D<
Was hoping to find some nice clothes from the bazaar, but most of the clothes there didn't suit me. Only good thing about this was being able to get ramune candy from the store there, LOL. 8D

9) Seiransai 19 preview, 19 September
Fun. :3 This event was held at Waseda Shibuya Senior High School, though it was only the exclusive preview for the event when we went there on Saturday. I got to try on their school uniform :3 , and we took some pictures when the others tried on the uniforms too. Played some games as well, though I didn't manage to get any yoyo-tsuri (water balloons. Forgive me if I've spelled it wrongly. ._. ). D:
The NoLights booth was interesting...though it was weird when I heard the Japanese girl who was guiding me through the whole thing go, "Kawaii~" after I answered her questions (she asked me about my name and age). O_O
Hope that my wish comes true~ :3 (They had a place in the classroom with the uniform rentals for us to write down our wishes and hang it up).

10) Games Convention Asia (GCA), 20 September
I skipped Seiransai for this event. >_<
It was all right, but the others and I were pretty bored after some time. Invinc was pretty much ADDICTED to the games they had there, he was playing for god knows how long. 8DDDD
Waited for the others to finish taking photos before going to dinner, Invinc joined us after the event ended at 8pm. :3

11) JCC Karaoke Session, 22 September
Unofficial club event again, haha. The others wanted to de-stress and sing, so we went to Liang Court's Party World KTV. Never went for karaoke before, actually. That was my first time, and frankly, I rather not go again. >_>
Had a sore throat so I only sang a few songs, and listened to the others singing. :/ I rather sing at home with my laptop, haha. At least I'll be able to sing Japanese songs with the help of romanji. >_>

12) JCC Movie Screening, 24 September
This is an official club event. Most of us took the first movie, "10 Promises to My Dog". It was better than I thought, though I had to escape from the room before the movie came to the part where the dog died because I didn't want to cry in front of everyone. ._.

I can't remember everything, so I listed down only those which I could remember clearly in the list above, haha. 8D

On 14 September, we went to Changi Airport as Cyrus was flying back to London for her studies~ I handed her the envelopes in which each of us had written our personal thoughts on each letter (Alfred tied the envelopes together with the ribbon) and the drawing of Lacus Clyne and Meer Campbell by Eric as a gift. :3 I came up with the idea for the letters, but wasn't really sure of how to present it nicely as a gift. ._.
All the best for your studies, Cyrus~ :3 Hope to see you again soon (we miss you already). :3

This fox shall stop here for now and bid everyone good night. :3

Cheers,

Cosfest 09 was EPIC. :3 And this fox did crazy shit during Cosfest! XD

2009-07-16T22:20:00.017+08:00

Y A O I~
BOX!
CRY SOME MOAR!

Haha! 8D I'm still high from Cosfest 09 (went for both days) which was so damn epic. :3 Armstrong for the win!

In case you weren't aware of the event, Cosfest 09 was held on 11 and 12 July, 1-7 pm at Downtown East. It's one of the major cosplay events which everyone looks forward too. :) Anyway, I shall start blogging about what I did on both days. XD

For Day 1, I met Jia Qing (JQ for short) , Eric and Joab at 10 plus at Pasir Ris MRT, and we went around the mall trying to get enough cardboard boxes. Why, you ask? Because we decided to join Cyrus' Ultimate CosEffing Box Gundam Team for the first day! 8D (In case you didn't know, it's actually Cos -f word-, but it's not very polite to use it in the first place.) People were already setting up their booths so we decided to browse through the items that they were selling before preparing our Box Gundams. JQ had brought his nerf guns and the replica rifle (AK 47, if I'm not wrong. Total noob when it comes to such weapons ._. ), and he passed the rifle to me to hold for the whole day and made me wear his Soviet Union beret, LOL. XD

After walking around (and meeting Nutella again there after 6 months of not seeing her due to her university overseas attachment :3 ; she was the EPIC Pacman on Day 1 XD ), we decided to eat lunch at McDonalds because I had missed breakfast due to oversleeping. People kept staring at us, mainly due to the fact that we were carrying nerf guns, and I was wearing that beret and carrying the rifle everywhere. 8D The rifle was really freaking heavy, as JQ had put in lead (fishing weights, I think?) to make it more realistic, and it weighs about 5 kg at least. And I carried that around for the whole of both days. >_<

At around 2-3 pm, we had finished the majority of our Box Gundams and were waiting for Cyrus to come before going around in them, but ended up running around the place in our Box Gundams anyway while waiting. XD When Cyrus, Oliver and Zero came, everyone helped to make a box gundam head for Cyrus while Zero and Oliver worked on a Box Gundam for Oliver to wear. :D When we went into the tent, many people asked us for photos, and the Epic FMA Alex Louis Armstrong cosplayer came up and took a picture with us (Armstrong is awesome!). XD I was the Impulse from the Box Gundam team, by the way.

After some time, we went back outside and took off our Box Gundams because we were getting tired and perspiring from the hot weather. Later on, I decided to talk to the KH2 Luxord cosplayer (that was one of the few times when I've seen such a good Luxord cosplayer, haha XD ) and found out that he's Invinc from Sgcafe (I had already gotten my friend to take his picture first before chatting with him :D ). He was pretty shocked when I revealed my age; he actually thought that I was 13 or 14. >_> I AM turning 18 this year, Invinc, same age as you (He's serving NS at the moment). >:3 We stayed at the venue till 6 plus as Invinc and his friends started dancing, LOL. 8D One of his friends had attached the iPod to this set of portable speakers and they were dancing to random songs. XD It started raining suddenly, so we started running for shelter.

Fast forward to Day 2 now 8D (hey, I can't possibly write about every single thing that happened on Day 1, correct?). I dressed up in a black t-shirt, cargo 3/4 pants and wore black shoes because according to JQ and Eric, I looked like Natasha from Red Alert 3 when I wore the beret and carried that rifle (WTH guys, am I the mascot for the club? >_> Always giving me random stuff to wear during events...). I arrived a little later than the others (had arranged to meet at 9am because JQ and Eric needed us to help them get into their costumes, especially Eric), and helped to spray Eric's hair together with Eileen and Billy (Billu! XD). The three of us sprayed his hair with the temporary hair sprays, and it was rather tedious as we had to spray with the 5 small cans of light green hair spray as the base before using the two normal-sized cans of green hair spray as the outer layer.

JQ's TF2 cosplay team consisted of him as Heavy, his friend as the Blue Soldier and the Blue team's Pyro. There was a Red Soldier going around with us too (not sure if he's your friend, haha), and we had lots of fun. Later on in the day, I decided to go into the tent despite it being so damn crowded at that time and took some omake pictures together with Snake (aka Alfred :3 He was cosplaying as Big Boss from Metal Gear Solid, Naked Snake version). Had fun playing with the box, lol. XD It was covered with pictures from the FHM magazine (LOL XD), and everyone did lots of funny stuff for the omake shots at the grass field on the left of the tent. XD Surprisingly, Invinc turned up for Day 2 too (didn't someone say that he needed to go back to camp, hm? XD) and things just got more epic because both Invinc and Alfred are just so awesome to the point where no words are able to describe it. :3

I'm so glad that I managed to catch Armstrong's Y A O I performance and get the sticker from him too, didn't manage to get it on Day 1 (he recognized me as the Box Gundam Impulse from Day 1, LOL ). 8D The sticker is now safely kept on a piece of paper, though I could always laminate it, XD He won the solo performance (no surprise there!), and the prize was a free trip to Japan, if I remember correctly. After the prizes were presented, everyone started doing the mass Caramelldansen on stage. 8D The DMC Krauser cosplayer was epic too; he suddenly did the hip thrust on stage while dancing along to Caramelldansen halfway, LOL! XD EPIC WIN!

Our omake pictures can be found on Sgcafe, just look for the Cosfest 09 omake threads to look at them. :3 Priceless, I tell you. Cosfest 09 was really a damn fun event!

All right, I better stop here for now. If you're wondering why I sound so tired in this post, it's due to school. D: Why do we still had to go to school on Monday right after Cosfest... D<

This fox bids you good night and sweet dreams. :3 Y A O I~

Cheers,
Kitsune

P.S. Invinc and Alfred are epic-ly awesome. Nuff said. :3 So are JQ, Eric, Cyrus and all the other great cosplayers at Cosfest 09. :D

Blogging about Mascot Parade and Games Xpo,and this fox got a piggy-back ride! XD

2009-07-04T23:51:00.016+08:00

Hey guys, I'm back lol. XD MSTs are finally over, so I can rest for a short while before studying again next week, Anyway, I'm gonna write about Mascot Parade (27 June) and Games Xpo (yesterday, 4 July). (Can't remember much for the former because I was too busy studying for MSTs, sorry. ._. )

On the day of Mascot Parade, I was actually studying with my friend Ethan at Aljunied MacDonalds for MSTs but decided to go last minute as Eileen told me to go ( :D Glad I did lol, it was fun. 8D ). Left Mac at 3pm, rushed home to grab a few things and left the house for Orchard, though Eileen and I reached there at 4 plus (because she overslept, LOL. XD ). The event was held outside Takashimaya, but there was a sea of people so we decided to walk around a bit to find the others. Silly me didn't notice Zero standing right in front of me; I was too busy looking around for the others though I did think that the guy with the ski hat looked familiar and was wondering why he was looking at me with that mischievous smile, haha. -facepalm- I suddenly realised that it was Zero after a short moment, LOL. XD Decided to hit him as a greeting (since we didn't see each other for so long XDDD ) but he managed to tolerate it, and it was no fun hitting a guy with some serious muscules. D: (He's really quite fit due to exercising a lot.)

Went around taking pictures of some cosplayers (with the help of Eric, who was using Eileen's camera as his camera ran out of battery 8D ), got a free Youth Festival bandana and tied it on my head with help from Spidey (Zero said he didn't know how to tie it D: ). They were giving out loads of free gifts so I went and got some for myself and a laptop bag for Zero, who said he likes free gifts. XD I followed the others around after that (Spidey, Zero and Hong Wei left after a short while), and we decided to get some food first. Ended up eating Hokkaido ice-cream (chocolate ice-cream...I am getting TOO spoiled. First Haagen Diaz, now Hokkaido ice-cream. D< ) as late lunch, LOL. XD

Zakie, Eileen and I tried out the Jumping Jacks free trial at 7pm after watching the L4D skit by these two Bill and Francis cosplayers (who were awesome, haha. XD Video can be seen on Youtube. Epic Bill is EPIC. XD), and it wasn't easy trying to walk without the pole as a means of support (it was there for us to hold onto while practising). D: Eileen and I nearly fell down so many times, though Zakie did great. :D After watching some of the bands' performances, we went for dinner at Bugis Junction's foodcourt. The kitsune soba there was good (no, Eric, I'm not eating myself. D< ).

Anyway, onto Games Xpo, which was on 4 July. I had actually overslept due to the fact that I slept at 3am due to mass convo/spam again, lol. XD But everyone overslept too so I wasn't really late. 8D Was coughing as I nearly choked on my sweet while rushing out of the house, so I ticked yes for the flu syptoms on the declaration form. -_- (On an unrelated note, Qubic gave me this ramune-flavoured sweet, yay! :3 )

As there weren't many cosplayers around yet, we decided to go for lunch at Marina's foodcourt. I wasn't feeling hungry so I just bought a drink, and we waited for Ryan to show up. Darren went and bought two freaking egg tarts after he finished his food, and went, "Egg tart is delicious" in Chinese, which is something that he spams A LOT in our mass convos. D< When we went back to Suntec, we found a spot to sit down (after some difficulty) and prepared to facetart him (we bought the two egg tarts before leaving the foodcourt XD ). While Eileen distracted Darren, Eric and I sneaked up to him and facetart-ed him (Eric from the right, I from the left). >D I couldn't really hit accurately because he was too tall for me D< , but it was a good job anyway. XD His reaction was priceless.

After that, we cleaned up the mess we made (Eileen went to the toilet to get toilet paper to use as we didn't have enough tissue paper, haha) while Darren went to clean his shirt. Jasper was talking about going into the exhibition in the hall to get the free t-shirt for him, so I decided to run in to get one. I had to wear it on the spot and go up on the stage before I could get one though, but it was partially my fault that his shirt was dirty so I just wore it, went on the stage, took it off and ran back to the others (relax, I wore the shirt for only a few minutes >_> ).

It was a little boring, so we decided to join Mos to watch Ice Age 3 at Dhoby Ghaut (we had to wait some time for Mos to come back to Suntec though, were camping at a corner while waiting). Only Jasper, Darren, Mos, Eileen and I went for the movie as the others didn't bring enough money. We had to watch at 9pm as the previous time slots were fully booked (full house for so many time slots, wow. O_O ), so we decided to eat dinner while waiting as it was only around 5 or 6 plus. We ate fried wanton mee at this coffee shop, though it was rather difficult to eat when the others were talking about weird crap, lol. XD There was this group eating at the table in front of us (not sure if they're really ah bengs though) who were talking about L4D. XD Darren suddenly elbowed me when that group was talking about the witch though. >_> (Stop it guys, I'm not the real L4D witch! D: )

After dinner, we went to Plaza Singapura as it was still early, and bought ramune from Daiso :3 , which I kept in my bag in order to smuggle it into the movie theater. >D We went to Carrefour as well and bought two 1.5 litres of A&W Root Beer and a can of Pringles Sour Cream and Onion chips. On our way back to the movie theater, I went, "Carry me." at the guys because I was feeling a little tired (I say this to everyone when I'm bored/tired/being sarcastic, lol), but I didn't expect them to really do it, haha. XD

Darren actually bent down halfway for me to jump onto his back, but he was still too tall for me so I ended up bumping into him while trying to jump onto his back >_> (I wasn't raping your butt, idiot, you're just too freaking tall for me even when you were bending down! D< ). Mos decided to squat down so that I could easily get onto his back, and carried me for a short while before I complained of my back aching due to trying to jump onto their backs. XD When we were a short distance away from the building, Darren tried to carry me again so he squatted down, though I told him to go down lower because he was still a little too tall 8D , and then I got onto his back. It was fun being piggy-backed, LOL. 8D (It's actually the first time someone carried me on their backs, haha. XD )

The movie was pretty good, with some parts that were too damn freaking hilarious. XD We had wanted to sit at the back row (our seats were at the first 2 rows) but it was really a full house so we couldn't suddenly rush to the back before the movie started. I think I'll still rent Ice Age 3 when it comes out on DVD to watch it again for the lols, haha. XD (Won't talk about the movie because I can't remember everything and I'm tired D: ).

The poor guys got poked a lot (not to mention punched and hit by Eileen and I) yesterday, haha. XD I remember punching Jasper in the stomach repeatedly for fun while we were at Suntec, lol, and I kept poking Darren while I was walking behind him. 8D SO FUN~ Though Darren would suddenly poke Eileen and I while walking D< ; thanks to him, we got a little paranoid while walking in front of them.

All right, I shall now spam NICE BOAT in the mass convo XD (if they're online) and head to bed. This fox bids you all good night and sweet dreams. NICE BOAT! 8D

Cheers,

Kitsune

P.S. I'm now addicted to spamming NICE BOAT due to JQ and Eric, LOL. XD If you have watched School Days, you'll get it; if not, Wikipedia is your friend. XDDDD
P.P.S. What. The. Hell. Just noticed that a portion of my blog entry is missing. D<

StreetFest,Badminton game,Japan Fair,and this Fox's gonna emo due to upcoming MSTs D<

2009-06-26T00:03:00.007+08:00

Been busy lately so I haven't been updating my blog for some time (plus I love that post I wrote about JCC FO Camp, LOL XD ). Am enjoying my bottle of ramune right now so I might take some time in typing this post, lol. XD (Going to write about 3 events...will write about Mascot Parade when I have time.)

Anyway, I went to StreetFest at SCAPE! theme park with the group on 13 June, and I was looking forward to it as it was my first time going to StreetFest (EOY 08 was the first cosplay event I went to). However, it was kind of disappointing personally, because the bad weather had already dampened my spirits a little for the event. I had thought that the weather was going to be just right for the event when it suddenly rained the moment we came out of the MRT station. D: As the others had not arrived yet, we decided to go to cineleisure to eat our lunch first at KFC. (Note: My phone really sucks when it comes to calling/receiving calls. For some damn reason, I can't hear the caller clearly and vice versa. Maybe it is time to get a new phone...but I've been using this since last year, kinda expensive to change.)

When we got to the event, the atmosphere just wasn't right for the event, partially due to the rain (which stopped when we finished lunch). There weren't a lot of people yet so it didn't really feel like an event, so we ended up going back to cineleisure to enjoy the air-con. It was much better when we returned as cosplayers were starting to arrive, and some of their costumes were really well-done. I ended up running back and forth from cineleisure and SCAPE! theme park (which were pretty close to each other, but tiring to run from one place to another) as Cyrus and Boss were also coming, and she was going to lend Oliver her Vampire Knight costume so that he could have his first cosplay experience. :D

Seriously, he looked damn cool in that VK Zero costume (not familiar with VK though), so I made sure we took at least one picture of him. XD Though he had some difficulty seeing due to the fact that he wasn't wearing contacts, it was generally okay for him to navigate his way around the crowd. Some VK cosplayers asked him if they could have a picture together too, lol. My dear cousin, see how attractive you are in costume? XD

Onto the next "event" now: We had a badminton game on 19 June, lol. XD Not much to say about it, though it was pretty fun playing badminton with the others. Unfortunately, I'm a sports-noob so I spent most of my time picking up the shuttlecock and practising how to serve. D< (Forgive me guys for being so noob. D: )

Ok, now I shall talk about Japan Fair, which was held at Suntec. XD We went on 25 June, and were seriously disappointed when we got there. SO RIPPED OFF. D< Wow, the fair is so "big" that I had trouble looking for my friends there. D<

After looking around the fair, we had some trouble thinking of what to do next and spent some time discussing about it. The funny thing was that during our discussion, Darren went off to the toilet, and by the time we finished our discussion, he wasn't back yet and no one really noticed that he had disappeared. When the guys went into the toilet to check if he was inside, they suddenly hurried out one after another with this WTH expressions on their faces and exclaiming that it was incredibly SMELLY in there. XDDDDDDD Bombing the toilet due to indigestion again, LOL~

So basically, we went to the arcade upstairs, though Zakie disappeared when we stopped at Otaku House on the way there. (Don't emo, Zakie! XD ) Not much to say about the arcade as there weren't any DDR D: , but we did take a neoprint with much difficulty, as we were a rather big group for the machine and the machine took our pictures so damn fast, we didn't have much time to think of what poses to make. D<

Anyway, MSTs week is coming up tomorrow so I'll be very busy, will write about Mascot Parade (which ROCKED. :D ) when I have time. This fox hopes that everyone will be all right during this period of time (due to H1N1, not CH1B1 XD ) and wishes everyone good luck for MSTs.

Cheers,
Kitsune

SPJCC FO Camp 09 Rocks This Fox's Socks!!! XD

2009-06-09T21:12:00.018+08:00

Aw man...camp was over too soon, now going into withdrawal state. D: Noooo I don't wanna emo and end up as a mark on the wall after "chao da"-ing! D: (Insider joke, sorry. >D Unless you've went for SPJCC FO Camp 09, you will never understand this joke, and I don't plan on explaining. )

This blog post is purely about SPJCC FO Camp 09, so there will be many parts which you won't understand. Feel free to skip this post if you want, but be prepared to read a WALL OF TEXT. >D

To be honest, I was kind of nervous before camp started because I was worried that I might not be able to fit in (never been able to), but I need not have worried because my group is the most awesome group ever (Yeah, you guys rock! :D )! Group 1 Lolicon might have made history as the most enthusiastic and awesome group ever for SPJCC FO Camp, haha! (I'm still high from camp, so excuse me for my out-of-character hyperness.)

When I came to FC6 with my brother's awesomely-big NS backpack and carrier bag for camp, I was rather surprised to see that many of the other campers had not arrived yet, as I thought I would be late (but I usually arrive rather early, lol). After everyone had arrived, all the campers were separated into different groups, and I found myself in Group 1 (no surprise there, as I was the first one to sign up for camp, LOL XD ). Our facilitators introduced themselves to us as Mimi and Yu Yu, and our two helpers as I-I and Haizul (LOL XD Mimi's Fahmi and I-I's Edmund, in case anyone has forgotten. I don't remember Yu Yu's real name though).

As it was our first time meeting each other, we didn't speak much to each other at first and it was rather awkward, though Jia Qing suddenly surprised me by saying that he recognized me from CosplayChallenge. O_O I had thought that he looked familiar, but silly me didn't even remember that he's Scorpion from CosplayChallenge (I'm getting old D: ).We started introducing ourselves to each other during the ice-breaker session (while waiting for the senpais to finish up their preparations and bring us to our dorms), and I realised that we clicked together pretty well as a group even though it was the first time meeting each other. :)

We had to give ourselves a group name too, so I suggested Ryuu (which means Dragon in Japanese) but we ended up calling ourselves "Lolicon" (which is pretty awesome, haha XD). After putting down our bags in the dorms on Level 6 of T22 (can't remember exact room number), we went down to the foyer outside FC5 and played some ice-breaker games, though it got boring and confusing the moment they merged our group with Group 6. D: Eileen and I forgot to bring down our wallets so we were pretty thirsty during the games, though the green tea which the whole group shared really helped (much thanks to the one who bought it! :D ).

After the ice-breaker games, we went into FC5 to start designing our group logo on the Japanese table-tennis paddles which they gave us. We drew Lucky Star's Konata on the first paddle and wrote "OBJECTION" on the second, though we added "desu desu" after the Objection, HAHA. XDDDDD Played table-tennis with the paddles after that, and we had to take care not to use the side which we drew on during the game. Kept hitting the ball to the right for some reason and the ball would fly down the stairs, which meant lots of going up and down the stairs to retrieve the ball, damn. D:

We ate dinner after playing for some time, though I was dismayed to see a sea of chilli in my packet of food as I had indicated before that I could not take chili (not allergic, just that I can't stand chilli at all, not even the mildly-spicy ones). Delvin couldn't take chilli as well, so the both of us told Mimi, who went to inform the committee members. Turns out many other campers couldn't take chilli as well (but only two, including me, had told them this before camp) so they told us to wait while they went to exchange the food packets with the other camps. I tried to force down the food, but it was really too spicy so Ryan exchanged packets with me as there were portions of rice which were untouched by the chilli in his packet (thanks Ryan, I owe you one! :3 ), and Eileen and I went to the KFC to ask the manager for 3 cups of plain water, as Eileen found the food too spicy too. Jia Qing was also a lifesaver as he went to 7-Eleven to buy a big bottle of 100-plus and shared it with the whole group. :)

Note: Something scary happened to us when we were walking back to our dorms after dinner. D: We had decided to walk down the staircase at W14 (it's to the left on the path from FC5 to T16. Don't ever take that path if you can help it) as it was a shortcut route back to T22, though I was starting to feel a little uneasy about that place. It was still rather early and bright (dinner was served early) but that place was a little dark, though we decided to leave the door open. When we had walked halfway down the stairs, the door suddenly closed (we had left it open, and there was no way it could suddenly close like that), turning the whole place pitch-black (though we could still see due to the light rays shining in) and the next thing we heard was a high-pitch female human scream. At first I thought it was either Eileen (who was next to me), Huixian (behind me) or Haizul (in front of me) so I wasn't too worried, but when we reached the landing I saw Mimi switching on the lights with this bewildered/shocked expression on his face, so I knew something was wrong. We quickly walked out of the place and walked as fast as we could towards T22, and I took the chance to ask Haizul about who was the one who had screamed. To my astonishment, she told the whole group not to talk about it at the moment, so we just tried to pretend that nothing was wrong and talked about other things. When we had reached the stairs leading to T22, Haizul told me that she didn't scream (neither did I, I was looking at my cup of water when it happened because I was making sure it didn't spill. And my voice can't go that high), and Huixian had screamed sarcastically during that time, so it wasn't her either. Eileen didn't scream either, and none of the rest had screamed either. By then we were all freaked out, so we decided to get the hell away from there as fast as we could. Later on, Mimi told us that W14 had many scary rumours about it so no one really dared to go there, even in broad daylight. D:

After dinner, we were told that there would be a Nightwalk that night and that the senpais would show us a horror movie before that. O_O I was like, "OH SHIT" when I heard about the horror movie, because I get scared easily when it comes to horror movies, dammit. DDDD: They showed us this anime, Byosoku 5 cm, before showing the horror movie. The anime was really interesting and rather touching, though I regret missing some parts as Eileen and I went to the Ladies during the anime. When they were going to show the horror movie, they did ask those who couldn't watch horror movies (get scared easily) to go outside, but our senpais told me to at least stay in the room during the movie because it was a SPJCC tradition that those who didn't sit in the movie would see "something", so I took their advice to stay in the room, shut my eyes tight and covered my ears. I need not have worried though; the other campers were making fun of the movie all the way so it turned from a horror movie to a comedy,LOL. XD "Chao Da" joke for the WIN!

I had actually paired up with Jia Qing for the Nightwalk, but I ended up going out of the dorm and asking Shao Jie to be my partner instead as Jia Qing's friend wanted to go with him (no worries, I don't hold it against you, really. :D ). Much thanks to Shao Jie for being my partner and being willing to hold hands with me throughout the Nightwalk because I was really scared, though it was only scary at the Red Bridge. D: Damnit lol, I found out about the Red Bridge from the others and told Shao Jie about it, but never did we expect that it was part of the route for the Nightwalk. DDD: We didn't get scared at all during the whole route (though one of the senpais scared us when we walked past him again as we forgot he was there. We actually went the wrong way and saw him earlier XD ). Other than that, I was going, "Hi!" at all the senpais who tried to scare us, LOL. XD Eileen, Huixian and I went to the stadium's showers at around 1 plus to take a shower because we were feeling so sticky due to perspiring so much, lol. The showers there are damn good. :)

We went to sleep at around 3 plus (can't remember exact time, last time I heard was 3.30), though it was hard to get to sleep as the other girls were chatting and the guys kept pushing some of the others randomly into our bunk (heard that Darren got pushed in too, though I was too tired to look). :/ When I next opened my eyes, light was gently shining into our dorm so I thought, "Ok, the sun is up. Time to get up." and was surprised to see that the girls were all still sleeping, though Huixian's sleeping bag was empty so I assumed that she had already woken up (she came in earlier when I was still half-asleep and greeted me). Got a shock when I checked my cell phone for the time and saw 7.45am, as I thought I would end up oversleeping. I was even more surprised when Huixian kept saying, "Ohayo gozaimasu" to me 5 times, and found out that she had stayed up the whole night to chat with the others. No wonder she kept going, "Who's Delvin? Who's Darren? Who's Ryan???" when Eileen and I told her to get ready for breakfast as the others were waiting for us at the lift landing. XDDDD Funny how high she is when she's sleep-deprived, lol.

We had bread with Nutella (not my cosplay team's Nutella, LOL XD ,I mean the chocolate spread), and then we had a lesson on origami. We had to learn and remember how to fold a Japanese crane, though I was so noob at it. D: The team which could finish folding a big Japanese crane in record time during that lesson would win the Fate/Stay Night manga (dammit, I wanted that! D< ), though Shao Jie's group got it, haha. We had the Treasure Hunt (I call it the Amazing Race 8D ) after that; running from one end of campus to another is seriously no joke. DDD: We ended up being the first team to complete (so our forfeit for the first station was canceled out XD ) and got two 2-litre bottles of Hokkaido Natural Mineral Water, which cost $15 each (it tastes good too, pretty sweet). Ryan kept refering to it as Japanese NEwater, and even poured a little into his rice, LOL. XD We actually had an hour before Talent-time, but decided to plan our performance for Talent-time instead of going to shower (We watched the Hard Gay Ramen Shop video before watching the L4D intro video, LOL. XDDD ). Darren really helped Eileen and I to be familiar with our parts for our Left 4 Dead parody, as both of us weren't familiar with it (much thanks to Delvin as well because he came up with the idea and helped everyone, especially the both of us, with their parts). We headed down to the Auditorium near the Convention Centre to rehearse, and then I got a message from Mimi saying that he would join us at 9pm, so we ended up rehearsing many times till he showed up, only to hear that the Talent-time was at 10.30pm. D: Mimi brought Huixian, Ryan, Eileen, Jia Qing and I back to the clubroom to watch this L4D parody in order to make our skit more exciting (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pnRVIC7kS4s - the parody which we watched, our skit can be viewed on Facebook :D ).

When the Talent-time started, one of the committee members (can't remember the name, sorry :/) cross-dressed in a meido costume, and danced to the song "Nobody" by the Korean group Wondergirls (now it's stuck in my head! D< ). XD Damn sexy, lol. Anyway, our group started first, though it was kind of difficult for us to adapt to such a big "stage" as we would have to run from one end to another. I was the witch (LOL) for our skit, and thankfully I did a good job (was afraid that I couldn't "cry"/"moan" loud enough, but the others told me I did well). XD Poor Ryan got pounced on by Eileen and I during the skit, haha, because he was acting as Louise and Eileen was the Hunter. Here's the whole cast (group members' names first and then their roles):

Ryan - Louise
Huixian - Zoey
Edmund - Francis
Yu Yu - Bill
Eileen - Hunter
Luca (myself) - Witch
Tanker - Darrren (Tank top) & Jia Qing (Tank bottom)
Narrator - Delvin

The scenes for our skit are
1) Car
2) Bomber
3) Witch
4) Hunter
5) Safehouse

Personally I think the Bomber and Safehouse scenes were the best, lol. XD Didn't know that Eileen came from the wrong side (she couldn't see without her spectacles, since both eyes were 800 degrees O_O ) and that Jia Qing nearly tripped on himself, resulting in Darren nearly falling off during the skit.

After the performance, we decided to take a shower and then we went as a group to the 7-Eleven at the MRT station for supper. XD Mimi and Yu Yu said that it was okay, as long as we didn't get into any trouble. After buying our food, we sat on the steps outside the Convention Centre to eat. It was an awesome and unique experience, eating supper with my friends under a moonlight sky. :D It was rather cool at night, so I need not have worried about perspiring on the way there. We sat there eating and just hanging out, though it was funny to spot some light-sticks on the ground (some of the senpais must have forgotten about those, lol). We stayed there till around 2 plus in the morning, before deciding that we should head back. When we got back, the others decided to go to sleep, though Eileen, Ryan and I decided to sit outside our dorms to chat as we weren't that sleepy yet. Zakie joined us as he couldn't sleep as well, though we had to persuade Huixian to sleep as she was already gong-gong due to lack of sleep, haha. XD (Zakie actually asked us if she was drunk because she was so gong-gong to the fact that she was facing the door while talking to us when she came out later to tell us to keep our voices down, LOL. XDDD )

By then Eileen and Ryan knew that they shouldn't let me talk about history at all (otherwise they would be drowned by Japanese and Chinese history, LOL XD) so when Zakie brought up the topic of Sengoku Basara, they immediately stopped me from talking about the history parts, haha. XD It was the same when some of the helpers came over to chat with us. It was a pleasant surprise to discover that Eileen was also a pro-homosexual supporter, haha. XD Ryan and Zakie were pretty okay with it, though. Oh yeah, forgot to mention: the majority of the group are free-thinkers (never thought I would meet so many fellow free-thinkers, haha. And we're in the same group! 8D ). Darren's Catholic, Delvin's Buddhist (if I remember correctly), Haizul's Muslim and the rest of us are free-thinkers. We're all open-minded folks, though we did take care not to sound as though we were bashing any religions (Christianity in particular).

On the third (and last) day, the president gave out the prizes for the competitions. Group 1 Lolicon won Best Group, 1st in the Treasure Hunt competition and Best Skit, woot! XD Huixian won the Best Camper award as well, lol. We Lolicons are amazing, haha. :3 Feels like camp went by so fast, it's true the time flies when you're having fun, sigh. D: I miss camp and you guys, lol; this is the first time I've enjoyed camp so much. Really looking forward to more group outings, haha. XD Remember to say hi when we meet in campus, and if possible, let's try to meet up in campus too during breaks and study together if possible.

This fox bids you all good night and sweet dreams! :3 Lolicon, Lolicon, good good, Lolicon, Lolicon, nice nice, Ohhhhh LOLICON! XD (Group cheer, lol. I still remember all our other "Give me one clap! LOSER!" stuff.)

Cheers,
Kitsune (aka Luca)

P.S. Sorry for the wall of text, haha. I've changed the font size so that it's easier to read. :3
P.P.S Crap, I'm re-reading this and finding loads of spelling mistakes. Note to self: Make sure you're not half-asleep when typing a wall of text. D:

Swamped with homework....and this fox's going for SPJCC FO camp this Saturday

2009-06-03T19:42:00.004+08:00

I have not been updating my blog because we have been swamped with loads of homework these past few weeks, which is insane because it's Week 7 right now. Only. (Though it does make sense since Term 1 has only 7 weeks...)

Loads of homework + Stressed-out fox + No time to eat/sleep =Psychotic rampage
Don't say I didn't warn you. I WILL mostly likely be close to a nervous breakdown during this period, so don't sms/call unnecessarily. Otherwise, don't blame me for biting your head off.

Anyway, just for the lolz/precious memories:
1) Our PT, Dr Chia (awesome PT, really. XD), freaked out last Thursday, 28May in APChem class (it was the first lesson of the day, and our class is combined with DCHE/FT/1A/03 on Thursdays) because there was a student from DCHE/03 who had not arrived for class as he was seeing a doctor and having a slight fever. When his friend told Dr Chia that he was coming to school (his friend called him while Dr Chia was taking attendance), Dr Chia ran immediately to the door, pulled shut the handle and kept a firm hold on it, and went, "TELL HIM TO GO HOME!!!!" XDDDDDD

We laughed like nuts when he did that, and he kept holding on to the door handle as the door could not be locked from the inside. This continued for several minutes, haha. XD Dr Chia didn't want us (including him) to end up being quarantined at Aloha for the next few weeks as we had a quiz next week (which is this week) and he had lots of work to do.

When that guy came to class, opened the door and placed one foot in, Dr Chia went, "STOP!" and then asked him about what the doctor said, and what his temperature was at the moment. XD That student went on to find a seat after that, and then Dr Chia suddenly turned around a few minutes later (he was going to continue where he left off for the lecture) and went, "Hm, I better take note of who's seating near him." XDDDD PRICELESS.

2) Apparently it is quite difficult to differentiate my sincerity from my sarcasm, according to Jill. D<>D Yes, I'm proud of this aspect of my personality too, haha. It means I'm an honest person. XD

3) I had wanted to blog about this earlier, but was so busy with homework that I couldn't post at all. Anyway, the proposition side (lead by me) won in the debate, "Homosexuality should be decrimminalised in Singapore", for our Our Nation, Our World module, WOOHOO!!! :D Though Raudhah deserves much credit, as we owe it to her in the final round where she scored a touchdown for our side. Kang deserves credit as well as he came up with interesting points, and my team members have also contributed in their own way. It's a shame that I couldn't use all of my research in the debate due to time constraint though. D:

Yes, I'm a proud LGBT supporter, haha. :) So don't even think of saying any discriminatory stuff near me, kthxbai. I WILL HUNT YOU DOWN AND SHOOT YOU DOWN IF YOU GIVE ME ARGUEMENTS/REASONS BASED ON DISCRIMMINATION OR RELIGION (provided that you give me evidence/supporting details). I'm infamous for shooting people down in debates, haha. >D (Though I do not see myself as a powerhouse in debates, due to my stage fright).

What I wish to see in this world is more tolerance. I understand that some people are unable to accept homosexuality, but please show a little tolerance, at the very least. Ignorance is not bliss; people will be hurt when you discriminate against them due to ignorance. Tolerance is what we really need in this world.

By the way, I will not be available from 6 to 8 June as I'll be away for SPJCC FO camp, woot! :D I'm really looking forward to it, haha. Oh yeah, does anyone have a blindfold? Because apparently I need it for camp, and I obviously do not possess one.

Ok, I shall write till here for now, need to get back to my pile of homework. D:

This fox bids you all good night and sweet dreams.

Cheers,
Kitsune

P.S. I will be bringing my cell phone to camp with me, if anyone has any questions or stuff to confirm with me, just sms, don't call. I should be able to reply to your smses.

Fox at CosCon@Licence2Play,23May

2009-05-24T00:42:00.003+08:00

Meh...I was so hyped up about going to CosCon yesterday because it's a cosplay event, and Shizuka and Cyrus were going, haha. XD Really missed them a lot so I was looking forward to CosCon. It was really quite boring, because Licence2Play is mainly a 3-day Gaming and Electronics Fair/event. For someone like me who prefers playing console games than online games (they were mostly showing online games like Cabal, from what I could see there), it was lame of me to go to such an event.

I had arranged to meet Oliver at Suntec at around 6.15pm because he had CIP from 12-5pm, but while I was on the way there I felt that it was better to meet at the MRT station instead, and so I smsed him to let him know about it. He called me some time later to tell me to meet at Level 6 of Suntec City Convention Centre (since Licence2Play is at Exhibition Hall 603), but as the MRT station was full of people and it was quite noisy, I wasn't able to hear him clearly through my phone (sometimes it acts up when I call or receive calls D: ).

After he called me to tell me that he was at Level 6 already, I rushed over as fast as I could, and smsed him immediately when I reached Level 6 (the escalators were going rather slowly, so I smsed a few minutes before I reached level 6). It was rather quiet and relatively empty on that floor, though cosplayers were mostly relaxing at the walkway. I decided to search the right side first and found Shizuka almost immediately, as she was taking a break along the walkway. I knew that she was cosplaying as DGM Kanda, 2nd uniform (as I smsed her earlier to find out) so I was able to recognize her easily, haha. XD I spent a few minutes sitting down and chatting with her before going to search for Oliver again, as Shizuka didn't see him at SOYA (they haven't got a chance to meet face-to-face so far). I found Oliver after a short while when I decided to walk left instead, and Boss and Cyrus were there too.

Damn, Cyrus' Tsubasa Chronicles Sakura costume was really beautiful and well made, especially the crinoline (I think that's how it's spelled). It was really quite difficult to make (because I remember watching her do it when we were making our costumes for CosplayChallenge), but it's worth it because the whole effect was good. I admit I was pretty worried during the time when she was in costume because people didn't really pay attention to their surroundings and came pretty close to stepping on the crinoline. I kept seeing threads coming out from the ends too so Lulu and I kept a close lookout and stayed damn close to her (I remember practically pushing a kid to the side with my right hand because he was about to step on the crinoline. >D ). Fuzzy's Lacus costume was pretty good too, and her wig was damn nice, though their friend who was cosplaying as xxxHolic's Yuuko did a terrific job too. :)

We were disappointed when Cyrus was given the consolation prize of $50 (only 10 out of 24 cosplayers who were in the competition got the next round; 7 of them were given a consolation prize); dammit, she did such a good job of making the costume by herself and protraying the character! She should at least get 3rd prize! D<>

I wanted all of us to go for dinner together, but Shizuka had already left earlier (I had smsed her earlier to ask) so it was only Boss, Cyrus, Lulu, Oliver, me, Chee How, his friend, Alvin (from CosplayChallenge), Fuzzy and her friend (well, that's actually kinda a big group, haha). Ended up eating McDonalds because most of the restaurants were closing at that time.

Boss, Cyrus and Fuzzy were taking a cab back home so we walked together to the path where it split into two directions (one towards the MRT and the other towards the taxi stand). Cyrus and I hugged before they left for the taxi stand, and she told me to take care of myself, ask them if I needed help for anything (they would help if possible), and to tell her if anyone had bullied me at school, haha. XD She did pat my head, and I told Boss that I would allow only Cyrus to do that, haha. XDDD Though he said that he didn't need my permission in order to pat my head. D: (I'm really seeing Cyrus more and more as my elder sister, haha. One of these days I might really end up calling her nee-san. XD She really cares about us like a real elder sister. :3 )

I'll end here for now, really need to rest. I still have loads of homework to look forward to, no time to work on my costume for now, sigh. D:

This fox bids you good night and sweet dreams.

The closed-mindedness of This Fox's Father.... -_-

2009-05-20T20:30:00.003+08:00

So, according to you, Father, if someone dislikes/hates a certain someone, and that certain someone ends up with some kind of misfortune/etc, the person who hates that certain someone is guilty? WTH, Father, this is too ridiculous. I'm not going to take any sides for this; just going to sit on the fence/be neutral till we can actually find evidence, kthxbai. >_>

Haha, you guys don't get what I'm saying, right? Anyway, apparently my grandmother (from my father's side) complained of the Vitagen being salty again today when my father gave her the bottle of Vitagen today (By the way, she comes over every afternoon, and we have to turn on the tv and fan for her, and personally give her a bottle of Vitagen. WTH. D: And she obviously knows how to turn on the tv by herself, I saw her do that once). It's actually our responsibility to give her a bottle of Vitagen (see above) everyday, but as I was busy with school homework (yet she likes to disturb me even when it's obvious that I'm doing work D: ), my father went and gave it to her instead.

After she complained of it being salty (my father took a sip too; it was indeed salty) and my mother came home after work (grandmother had went back home by then), she asked my father if my grandmother had drank the Vitagen. This made my father suspicious immediately, and then he accused my mother of deliberately putting salt into that bottle, WTH, Now, for my father he'll be suspicious because my mother has never asked him this, but he doesn't know that my mother asks my brother or I that standard question everyday after she comes home from work. Since my brother was not home yet and I was in my room doing my work, she had no one else to ask besides my father.

It's obvious that my mother and my grandmother dislike each other A LOT, but it's kind of unfair to accuse her when you've no evidence and when the accusation's based on your own assumption. It's the reason why I put that sentence up in the first paragraph.

So if I hated this person, and this person dies suddenly due to an accident/etc, I'm the one who caused his/her death because I hate him/her? WTH, Father, what you're saying is the same as the previous sentence. We've no proof besides the fact that only Mother was home because she starts work at 11am, and Brother and I are in school/NS. Yout only reasoning is that Mother hates our grandmother, the sides of the bottle covering is slightly rolled up instead of being flat on the bottle, the bottle is in the same position as the previous time when the Vitagen was salty as well, and she asked you that question. Father, I always thought that you were pretty open-minded for someone your age. Now I see that I was wrong. -_-

In conclusion, Mother hates our grandmother + Vitagen is salty again + No one at home at that time but Mother starts work at 11am + She asks that simple and standard question = Mother Did It. Could your way of thinking be any sillier, Father? I did ask if you had evidence/proof because I feel that it's too damn weird and biased to base this on your own assumption. However, you said in Chinese, "Who else but she could have done it? She hates your grandmother, and no one else was at home in the morning except for her. Plus the bottle's in the same spot as the previous bottle that was salty too." -FAIL-

And you felt that it was unusual for her to arrange the bottles so nicely at the side. FATHER, have you been blind all these years? Mother has always been arranging everything in the house, INCLUDING the fridge, for goodness' sake. Heck, even I arrange the contents in the fridge too. So am I a suspect, HAHA?

I'm not going to take sides in this, THIS IS TOO DAMN LAME. I bet I won't be able to sleep tonight because Mother sleeps in the same room as me (cause she came over due to a major arguement last time) and she'll be giving me her side of the story, DAMMNIT. DDD: I need sleep.

Sorry, I needed to rant, lol. I've loads of homework waiting for me, so I'll stop here for now.

This fox wishes you good night and sweet dreams.

Cheers,
Kitsune

P.S. By the way, Father. The sides of the bottle covering are only slightly rolled-up but it's still sealed, correct? THEN HOW THE HELL DO YOU THINK SHE CAN PUT IN SALT AND RESEAL THE BOTTLE? WITH MAGIC POWERS, HAHA? I'm tired of you guys both bitching at us siblings after your arguements! DDDD<>

Fox Faced with Loads of Homework D:

2009-05-09T03:03:00.004+08:00

I didn't have time to update this blog earlier as we were (and are still) swamped with homework, even though this is only the 4th week of school. D: Anyway, our class actually had 24 students, but one of our classmates transferred to a science course in NYP after attending school for a few days (even missed the Freshmen Orientation week). We didn't know that she was transferring until Dr Chia called her before taking attendance this Monday. According to Dr Chia (who got his info from the universities, statistics etc), SP is Number 1 for Science courses, and yet she's transferring to a similar science course in NYP (Apparently the science course in NYP which she's transferring to is similar to DCP). The weirdest part is that she lives near SP, but she decided to go to NYP, WTH. >_> Most of us were going WTH at that moment, and then Dr Chia said that she's a traitor in a joking manner when he reached her name in the attendance list, haha. XD

The homework load is really increasing this week, and we're starting to show signs of fatigue and lack of sleep everyday. D: Analytical and Physical Chemistry (AP Chem) is still one of my favourite modules, but this week's homework is quite difficult when it comes to certain questions, and Critical Reasoning Skills (CRS) is still interesting, though I didn't like what my CRS lecturere was saying about homosexuality during this week's lesson (According to her, she's ok with it, but certain terms which she used really pissed me off). >_>

Applied Electricity and Electronics (AE&E) is still one of the killer modules, as it is Pure Physics and our lecturer, Mr Kong, just goes too fast when he's teaching. My classmates have started to imitate his way of speaking, especially that "famous" phrase, "Concussion already?". XDDDDDD In our opinion, Jun Hao (my classmate) is able to imitate Mr Kong's voice perfectly. His imitation is 95% accurate, I got a shock during this week's CRS lesson because I thought Mr Kong was in the classroom at that moment. XD I have to say that I do dislike the lectures because we share the lecture sessions with this DCHE (Chemical Engineering) class, and it's really stressful to have them around. Heck, they were supposed to be with us for BM lessons too but they ended up being exempted from BM because they took O Level A Maths. DDDD: Too stressful to have them around, honestly.

(Note: Was too busy with homework so I didn't update this post. Refer to latest post for more news when I've time to update, haha. XD )

Cheers,

Fox in fangirl-mode :3

2009-05-01T15:44:00.004+08:00

YES.

Look at my latest Valenth pet.

ISN'T HE SO DAMN COOL?! :3 x1000

Sorry, fangirl mode, LOL. XDDDD I adopted him from Renn who helped me change the name before passing him over to me.

That's right,his name is... Shima Sakon. -squeal- x infinity :3

I LOVE YOU SO MUCH. XDDDDDDDD

Okay,enough fangirling, lol. XD I like him too much. -hugs and never lets go- :3

(Oh, Sakon. I love you so much. Let's make babies together. :3 )

Did I break your brains with that? >DDDDDD

I've also adopted a Gierkett, name's Mori Ranmaru (hey, I had to name one of them Ranmaru sooner or later anyway). XD I want him to be a Vital Gierkett, so please feed him the first food on the list, thanks.

Anyway, school's been okay, though I'm pretty stressed out about this week's homework. Oliver, if you're reading this, I need your help, please. -bows- Though if you're busy with JC homework, it's okay. Some modules are making me go WTH during their lessons. D:

Materials In Practice (MIP) is boring, as always. The lecturer makes us go WTH all the time (not saying her name cause I don't want to get into trouble), what with her tendency to pick up random objects, go "This is made of a polymer," drop it, and repeat the whole process for all the lessons so far. I AM NOT KIDDING. DDD: Her lessons are so damn boring due to the fact that she keeps talking about and showing examples of polymers (as in, doing what I've just described) and also because I've never liked Macromolecules, polymers etc.

Yesterday was our MIP Tutorial lesson, so she was supposed to go through Tutorial 1 with us. So she went through Qn 1a(i), and then did the same thing. AGAIN. D: But that's not the worst of it, believe me. She started BURNING THINGS. I'm completely serious.

She lit a flame,took a few plastic items, and set them on fire. DDDD: Our faces were like, O_O x100 + DDDD: . WHAT. THE. HELL. We're in a freaking air-conditioned room that is enclosed, and you start BURNING THINGS. Do you want us to freaking die?! Either from boredom or the smell of those burning plastics?!

She's like some kind of person who likes burning things, WTH. She even told us that it was okay, nothing will happen even though she's burning something. In the room which is enclosed. And the room's packed with two classes. -cue What The Shit expression- Most of the class quickly packed up and left the room as soon as they could once the lesson was over, and I was one of those who were the first few to escape. D:

I'll stop here for now, might update later.

Cheers,
Kitsune

Second Week of School - Fox's thoughts thus far about poly life

2009-04-28T20:18:00.006+08:00

Well, the first week of school is over and it's now the second day of the second week, haha. I'm afraid that I was too busy with homework last week so I didn't update my blog, sorry about that. I'm slowly getting used to poly life now, though it is still rather new to me since it has been only a week after all.

We had our first MIP (Materials In Practice) Practical yesterday, and it was a good thing that we received our lab coats on that very same day, as it would be a pity if we were restricted from the lab due to the lack of lab coats. Though my lab coat was in S size (they took our measurements on the first day of Freshmen Orientation week), it was still a little too large for me as my hands could be nearly completely hidden by the sleeves and it covered 3/4 of my entire body. No worries though, I can still do my practicals, and I really like my lab coat so it's not a problem. Goal of wearing a lab coat = DONE! XD Have I mentioned that one of my goals in life is to wear a lab coat? :3

Good news: The stock of the laptop model which I ordered has finally arrived today, though I have not received it yet as I've not withdrawn the money from my bank account and they're still checking if they can come into campus so that we can collect the laptop from the Auditorium. If not, I'll have to wait till next Monday afternoon as home delivery starts from next week onwards. The worst case scenario is that I'll have to personally go down to their company (god knows where it is) to collect it from them. I'm hoping that they call me by 9pm today to tell me that I can collect it tomorrow from the Auditorium. :)

On my way to class today, I met Tresa again (it must be a miracle :3 ) while walking up the stairs at the Concourse. I didn't recognize her straight away at first, though I did find her familiar. She had to call me before I could really recognize her, haha (I apologize for that, Tresa!). We exchanged cell phone numbers before going on our individual paths as she was going to the Foodcourt while I was on my way to class (surprisingly, we both had lessons starting at 10am today). It was really warm today, so the air-conditioned classroom was a blessing.

Half an hour before our AE&E (Applied Electricity and Electronics) lecture came to an end, a girl knocked on the door and came into the classroom, though we were 100% sure that that girl was definitely not from our class (Obviously. How could you doubt our ability to remember all 24 classmates, including ourselves? Tsk, tsk). Our lecturer, Mr Kong, told her that she was in the wrong place and to check around for the correct venue of her lessons. After class was dismissed, I called AsiaPac again (to ask if I could collect my laptop from school) and left for the 1-hour break we had today before our Basic Mathematics (BM) lecture and tutorial at 1pm. I had intended to go the vending machines near W3 for food [as I found that it was a cheap and good way for me to get food, haha. Small appetite + High metabolism (if I remember correctly) = Food at Vending machines to fill tummy XD ], but as I was still a noob/newbie at getting around SP, I ended up going in the opposite direction. ._.

As I was walking towards T7 (since I was going the wrong way, why not go to the next lesson's teaching block first?) which was near the library, I saw the same girl who came to our classroom earlier, and she seemed a little lost. When I went past her, she asked me for directions to the library, and I pointed it out to her, stating that it was just near her, haha. XD We then introduced ourselves to each other; her name was Hazel, and she was also in DCP, though she was in 1B/23. She had just came over to SP as she had to wait for her A Level results before she could officially enroll into SP (a JC student who decided to come over to SP after A Levels), so she was having difficulties getting around and fitting into poly because she was worried that no one would talk to someone as old as her (come on, 19 years old is not that old, haha. No worries). We went to the Library Cafe to get some food, and she saw some of her friends there while I bought an Iced Chocolate ($2.50, not bad).

While walking to the new Admin block (which was still having some construction work done), she met another one of her friends from secondary school who was with his girlfriend. After chatting for a while, I noticed that it was 12.35pm, and not wanting to be a "lightbulb", I decided to leave for T7, haha. XD Now I can introduce Hazel to my friends by saying, "This is the girl who went to the wrong classroom on 28 April 2009, where my class was having lessons at that moment." >DDDDDD (Sorry, Hazel, but I can't help teasing you about this, HAHA. I'm evil. >3 ).

BM lecture and tutorial was all right today, I can say that I'm starting to even like Maths a little as I could understand most of it and Mr Law's explainations were easy to understand. The class was still kind of noisy, so I was pretty annoyed while doing Tutorial 2. :/ Unfortunately, it was really cold in the classroom (plus the fact that it was also raining at that time) so most of us felt like we were freezing in there, even with jackets. I didn't bring my jacket as my shoulder bag was quite heavy (Note to self: switch to messenger bag next week, no matter how big it is), so I was shivering while doing my work. It was a 2 and a half hours long lecture and tutorial, so we were really looking forward to getting out of the classroom, and fast.

I'll stop here for now because I'll need to sleep soon, lessons start at 8am on Wednesdays and Fridays so I'll have to sleep early, wake up early and leave the house to be punctual for lessons. At least I'm taking the train with Esther tomorrow. :3

This fox bids you good night and sweet dreams.

Fox's Reflections about SP Flag Day,and the first day of Poly Life

2009-04-20T19:10:00.011+08:00

I've been rather busy lately, and my brother's been using the computer so I haven't updated since last week. Anyway, I'll talk about SP Flag Day (which was last Thursday, 16 April) first. Warning: long post ahead. Skip the whole part if you have absolutely no interest in reading why we shouldn't take Flag Day/any other community activities to raise funds for the less fortunate for granted.

Truth be told, I've always seen Flag Day as a senseless and boring activity; in primary and secondary school, I saw it as a way to get CIP points, nothing more than that. Though I really want to do something for the less fortunate, the orphans, the people who need our help to survive... I never did my part for Flag Day. I never saw it as an opportunity to help them.

Cyrus helped me to realise what a hypocrite I've been all these years, when I called her last Thursday for tips on good locations for donations. She suggested going to the Paragon, and I went there with Vivian, a girl I've just met on that day itself (turns out she's from the same course, only that she's in class 01). Unfortunately, the security guard noticed us after half an hour and chased us away, insisting that we stayed out on the pavement, and not near the building. Being the hypocrite I was, I got worried about not getting $30 in donations as everyone was required to raise that minimal sum. -slaps self- So, I smsed Cyrus and told her what happened, and that I was worried about not getting that much money in donations, JUST to complete SP Flag Day for the freaking CCA points.

Her reply came back in a few minutes (I wasn't really counting, cause I was still being the idiot who was trying to get donations for CCA points), and what I read really, really changed my life (not exaggerating here, it was really inspirational.

She told me that I should have talked back to the guard and just continue to stand at the Paragon for donations, and not to care about the other SP students who did this only for the CCA points (no offense to my SP friends, she meant the majority, and I believe that she's right). Furthermore, I should not have cared about getting at least $30; Flag Day was about raising funds for the less fortunate, NOT about getting enough donations just to complete the activity and call it quits. She had stood firm at the same spot at the Paragon for 8 hours during her secondary school days, and filled up two huge collection tins with coins. She did that not for the CCA points or to complete the CIP activity; she did that for the orphans who needed her effort to survive. She did it for the less fortunate. And when she returned her tins and got $4 ($2 was given for every tin returned), she gave it back, so that the money could be used to help the orphans. She did it all for the less fortunate; she thought and cared about the needs of others.

The security guard couldn't chase her away from the building; her desire to help the less fortunate could not make him drive her away. The donations she collected that day really helped the orphans, and I was really touched by it. That is why I will always respect her, and see her as my older sister (I'd like to call her nee-san, but I'm too shy to call her that in person... >//< ). She is truly someone worth looking up to, and her words are always worthwhile to listen to.

(For those who skipped the whole part, here is where I'll start writing about the first day of school.)

It was really weird, walking past my secondary school to take the train to Dover. I still can't get rid of that feeling of sadness whenever I see it; it's as though one part of my teenage life was gone, and that I was truly growing up [I've always been looking (or at least, trying) to look at things from a mature standpoint, something which I failed to accomplish at certain points of my life].

It saddened me to realise that I could no longer walk into school everyday after a few minutes' walk, and see my friends in class, and talk to my teachers. No longer could I sit in class and pay attention to Daddy (Mr Kee)'s Chemistry lesson or arrange Saturday remedial lessons with him. I could not meet Papa (Mr Teo), Mr Gage, Mrs Theseira, Mrs Selvam, Miss Nainee, Mr Sophiandy and all the other teachers whom I'm close to (well yeah, I'm a teacher's pet. I like talking to teachers, it's easier to make friends with them). No matter what, I will go back to GMSS and GMPS (will never like the fact that our schools merged names together) every year, and especially during Teachers' Day.

Anyway, I arrived at Dover MRT at 9.23am, though my watch told me that it was 9.30am as it's 7 minutes faster [did that with my watch and my handphone (which is 3 minutes faster than my room clock) to motivate/scare myself into walking faster], as I was meeting Christina to go to class together. She came a few minutes later, and then we waited for Eelin and the others before going to class. The sky looked really dark by then, and we were worried that it might rain heavily, so we quickly left for class.

We endured a slight drizzle for a while before reaching the Concourse (since SP has shelters everywhere,I believe XD ) and we made our way to T244 for our first lesson, Analytical & Physical Chemistry (A&PC). The whole class came pretty early, and we waited for some time for Dr Chia (our lecturer for this module and also our Personal Tutor) to arrive, though he did take some time to reach. >_> Basically he gave us our module lecture notes (after we paid $3.70 each) and briefly went through the first chapter, as it was only an one-hour lecture, and he was talking to us about other poly matters before that.

As we had an hour break after that to eat, we went to Foodcourt 1 (if I recall correctly) to get some food, since our next lesson, A&PC practical, was 3 hours long (only for odd weeks; timing for practicals on even weeks are different ). After considering for a while, I decided to get a plate of fish and chips which cost $3.50 (I'm supposed to refrain from oily food, but the temptation was too strong. >D ), though I didn't see any price lists at any food stall so I didn't know it was $3.50; otherwise I would have brought more pocket money. I grabbed a packet of Milo after that and went back to our table to eat. Since there were 2 main pieces and a small piece of fish which was still warm due to the food being just cooked, I decided to start on the fries first, which was kind of hard to pierce with the fork as it was kind of hard in the middle, and had a tendency to break into smaller pieces when they were poked. As I'm a slow eater, I decided to start quickly on the fish.

It. Was. A. Waste. Of. My. Money. DDDD:

At first, the fish tasted all right when I took a few bites, though it was still pretty hot. However, as it started to cool down, I realised that every bite of the fish I took left a bitter after-taste on my tongue, and it didn't really taste that good. I admit that I'm an extremely-picky eater, but I am slowly trying out more varieties of food. That plate of fish and chips made me reach for the Milo with every bite, and after a while I couldn't take it, and I'm ashamed to say that I returned the plate to the dishwashers after eating only nearly half of it (not even half of the whole portion). Next time, I'm not going to buy that dish again, and I'll finish the whole portion of my meals so that I don't waste food anymore.

The A&PC practical was okay; our lecturer was Miss Zheng Rongyuan, and today's lesson was merely a briefing and a little hands-on session for us to try using the pipette and reading the burette. It was a little frustrating to try to get the correct amount with the pipette, but after a while it was pretty fun. Amazingly, she dismissed us from class after that, leaving us with 2 hours and 20 minutes to do anything we wanted till our Basic Mathematics (BM) lesson at 3pm.

With Dao Seong (my classmate) leading us, we went to Foodcourt 3 as one of our classmates needed to get her measurements taken for the lab coat at the photocopy shop there (apparently she missed the first day of orientation, which was the day we all got our measurements taken). When we got there however, the person said that she had to pay for it first before taking her measurements and ordering the lab coat, but she didn't have the money for that today so she had to go back tomorrow for that.

We went to Moberly after that as we were curious about that place (including me), and also because some of them wanted to get those white SP t-shirts. Most of the group bought the white t-shirt, though I admit I was more interested in the SP black Polo shirts. XD When they were looking for their sizes, they found a XXXS one for Christina, who's a little taller than me (WTH? XXXS?!). Obviously it fits me too, but I didn't buy it as I'm trying to save money (plus the fact that I've to get used to paying adult fares for MRT/bus. WTH. D: ).

After that, we went to Foodcourt 5 to relax as there was still some time till BM lesson, and we basically chatted with each other while some of us used their laptops. We went to T4A52 when it was close to 2.45pm (I think) for our BM lesson, and managed to get in the classroom to enjoy the air-conditioner while waiting for our lecturer, Mr Law. XD He's pretty nice, but as it was a Maths lesson I'm afraid I was spacing out a little while doing the tutorial questions.

I'll stop here for now as this post is already quite long, but I might be able to post once a week, can't promise too much, haha.

This fox bids you good night and sweet dreams (and I want my laptop soon, sob. DDDD: ).

P.S. I forgot to say one thing. SP female toilets (the ones I've been in) are truly APPALLING. DDDD: They're really in bad shape and dirty; never thought that the female toilets would be that bad. This just makes me appreciate my primary and secondary schools' female toilets a whole lot more.

Also.... my class unity/enthusiasm is SCARY. D: I can safely say that it's 95% enthusiastic/united, with a few people (including me) who aren't that enthusiastic. It's actually an excellent thing, but for someone like me who has never been in/seen so much unity and enthusiasm in any of my classes before poly, it's actually quite scary yet funny at the same time. XD Looks like this year's gonna be one hell of a party, haha. I'm going to enjoy it while I can (or at least try to), since next year's class might not be this united.

Freshmen Orientation ( Fox-Approved! XD )

2009-04-13T20:03:00.013+08:00

Hm... freshmen orientation was surprisingly fun today, haha. It actually starts at 1pm, but I reached there at 12.35pm because I left the house at 11.55am as I was worried about how long the journey would take from Aljunied to Dover, haha. Didn't see anyone I know there, so I went into the Convention Centre and emo-ed (aka behaved aloof and cold,cause that's how I naturally am most of the time and I like to be alone) at a corner away from sight, haha. XD I'm naturally an introvert so I don't like talking to strangers/making friends, though I am slowly opening up nowadays (it was worse in primary school, haha).

Waited for them to set up the class lists and registration tables for every CLS course and class, was kind of bored while waiting, haha. I had already known my class yesterday night as Pin Hao told me to check online, but I wanted to make sure I saw the right class so I checked the list there when it was ready. I'm in DCP/FT/1A/05, so I went to the DCP/FT/1A registration table, showed them my student card and got my class list. It had the name of my class/personal tutor, class list and details for Meet-Your-Tutor session, SPICE training and Flag Day ( D: ). I heard that my course had 25 classes with 20 students per class, but my class had 23 students (my class is number 5, and I'm number 10 on the class list).

It was getting crowded, so I pushed through the crowd forming around the registration tables and went to the space near the escalators because only a few people were hanging around there, so I had my personal space. While I was spacing out, a girl (young lady would be more appropriate) came over to me, clutching a class list in her hands, and asked me about where we were supposed to go after registration. I was kind of stunned that someone actually talked to me, so I told her to wait here and went to the registration table to ask them.

They told us to take the escalator down, so we did, and on the way we found out that we were both in DCP (short for Diploma in Chemical Process Technology), though she was in 1B/21. Our course was split into 1A and 1B (don't know why though). Her name was Tresa (such an unique and interesting name, really), and I introduced myself to her, adding that she could call me Luca instead. She surprised me when she said that she thought I shared the same name with a famous celebrity, haha. My name's pretty unique, though I don't really like it when it's literally translated. >_>

One of the seniors came down and told us that we were supposed to be in the auditorium, which was on the previous floor, haha. We went into the auditorium and got separated for seating arrangements as I was in 1A while she was in 1B. Realised that I forgot to get her number after seating down, felt like facepalming 100 times. D<

The MCs were two CLS seniors (going to be 2nd year once school term starts), and they were pretty funny. XD The Principal of SP and Director of CLS made some really long speeches (though it should be just me), so our programme was delayed a little. The Japanese Daiko Drummers, traditional dance and hip hop dance performances were brillant, I clapped really loudly after they had finished. It was truly fantastic. :D The video on the Department of Student and Alumni Affairs was interesting, though the video on SP Library nearly put me to sleep. D: I like libraries, but the video was truly boring, with a capital B.

After we were dismissed, we went to our respective exits and found our seniors who were holding up a card with our class printed on it. We assembled before him first, though it seemed that one of our classmates didn't turn up. :/ While waiting for everyone to assemble, this girl who was wearing a yellow shirt and blue jeans turned to me and introduced herself, and I did the same in turn. Her name was Christina, and DCP was actually her 6th choice for JAE. As for me, I put DCP as my 3rd choice, haha. XD We both moaned about having to take Prep Maths as we were both no good at Maths, haha. On the way to T1A43 (at the Concourse), we got to know another one of our classmates, Eelin. She was wearing a white SP t-shirt, which can be bought from Moberly, haha (was wondering if she bought that during enrollment).

When we got to the Concourse, we stopped near the McDonalds so that we could have a toilet break. XD I wanted to eat at McDonalds too, but couldn't as the doctor said to not eat sour or oily food for a while as I'm still sick (due to indigestion and being too heaty). D: After everyone was back from toilet break, we went to take the lift to Level 4, though the girls took the lift first, and the guys followed by taking the next lift. The seniors brought us to classroom 3 where our personal tutor was waiting. I was surprised to see that we were sharing the classroom with DCP/FT/1B/21, though it was certainly big enough for two classes (since there were only 42 students in total, counting our missing classmate).

Our personal tutor was Dr Chia Fu Siong, who was quite nice. He did crack jokes now and then, which helped to ease the nervousness that we were experiencing. I have no idea how to address him though; I heard that students address their lecturers by name, but it feels kind of rude to me, and he didn't say how he wanted us to address him. He does teach us as well, Analytical & Physical Chemistry (if I remember correctly). We took down his name, contact number and office on our individual copies of our class list. Unfortunately, Christina, Eelin and I couldn't find seats together so she took a seat in the row in front of me, while Eelin took a seat in the last row. As for me, I took a seat in the second last row (am in the middle of them both, haha).

Dr Chia gave us some details on our SPICE training (which is tomorrow) and Flag Day, and gave out the collection tins and the paper with the Flag Day details to us. We got a black SP t-shirt each (for FREE, haha. XD ) which we had to wear for Flag Day. Too bad everyone received M-sized ones because the three of us are short D: , so it was a problem (they said that there were a few S-sized ones, but those were already taken). We also received a water bottle each (most likely for Flag Day) and a bar of Kit-Kat Crunchy each. :) We had to get our measurements taken so that they could order our lab coats ($18 each), but as the three of us are short, the senior was like, " >_> I'll just put down your sizes as small.", so we didn't need to be measured. 8D

Flag Day's on Thursday, and we have to assemble at Paya Lebar MRT by 7.30am (good thing it's only one stop away) with our tins. Apparently they arranged it that early because we would be able to catch the morning crowd, haha. Dr Chia did tell us to try moving to other stations after the morning crowd is gone because 3 classes (including ours, I believe) are stationed there. We'll have to make sure we get back to SP, and to T1A43 before 3pm to hand in our tins, hopefully with at least $30 each.

I don't know if I'm going for the Welcome Party after that; I actually thought that it was compulsory as it was also printed on the CLS orientation brochure. If it's compulsory, I'll try to have fun there, but if it's boring, I'll just stick with Christina and Eelin, if they don't mind.

Anyway, I've SPICE training tomorrow from 1pm-3pm at the computer lab, and the three of us arranged to meet at Dover MRT at 12.45pm to go together. I have not received my laptop yet (unfortunately), but Ms Ong (who we're supposed to call/e-mail if we have enquiries about the orientation programme) told me that it's okay as I could use the computer in the computer lab, and that it wasn't necessary to bring our laptops for SPICE training when I e-mailed her. I could call Dr Chia as well to double-check, haha.

I'll stop here for now as I want to wake up at 8 am so that I can have a nice long shower, haha (because I'm washing my hair, and that takes time due to the shampoo and conditioner). XD This fox bids you good night and sweet dreams, and hopes that you're all doing well. :)

Fox playing with Valenth pets now...yup. ._.

2009-04-08T23:13:00.007+08:00

Yup, I'm now playing Valenth, no thanks to Renn who might make me addicted to it (just kidding. XD ). My first pet's in the border below my music, lol. It's a Bloodhawk. :3 Name's Date Masamune; if you're wondering why I named it after him, it's because the moment I set my eyes on it in the pets page, I thought of him immediately, LOL. XD Besides, Masamune's one of my favourite Samurai Warriors characters (don't. even. say. anything. about. him. Kthxbai. >_> ).

Do feed him, okay? I want him to be a Tainted Bloodhawk, so always feed him the last food on the list when you do. :3

Okay, I'm back, lol. Am editing this post cause I was too lazy to write the whole thing out yesterday.

I've been quite pissed off since yesterday when I found out that my laptop isn't ready for collection, ARGH. D: Apparently the stock's delayed so there's a long queue of SP students (including me) affected by the delay. Now I'll have to call my school and tell them about it. >_> (Does this mean that I can skip Orientation Day 2 cause it's SPICE training and I don't have my laptop yet? -_- )

My brother came back from Taiwan yesterday morning (since it's Friday now, lol); his flight reached Singapore at 2am and he got home at around 3-4am. Since I've been having problems sleeping lately, I decided to stay up and wait for him to get home. He brought back a whole bunch of stuff, lol; some are gifts for family + friends while the rest were his. He bought me a purple handphone pouch, which is funny cause I was thinking of getting a new one, haha. XD (Since the one which my sister bought is kinda fraying after only a few months... D: ). Am glad that he's back, I did miss him during the one-month period when he was in Taiwan for NS, haha. :3

Remember, feed Masamune the last food on the list when you do feed him, I want him to be a Tainted Bloodhawk. Now that I've gotten my second Valenth pet, do feed them both, haha. :D My second pet's a Talstag, name's Sanada Yukimura (LOL. Can you just see my Samurai Warriors fangirl-spirit coming out? XD). I want Yukimura to be a Natural Talstag, so feed him the second food on the list, thanks!

This fox bids you good night and sweet dreams. :3

Final edit: Hey look, those two fakes are gone! :3 So just feed the real Yuki in my blog, LOL. Feed him the second food on the list so that he can become a Natural Talstag, thanks! :D

Anyone who mentions Maths in front of this fox shall be whacked with a Harisen!

2009-03-31T23:16:00.004+08:00

...

Yup.

Go check out the meaning of Harisen on Wikipedia if you don't know what it is.

I've been doing Prep Maths these past few days, though I did slack off the last two days. Too...much...maths.... DDDDD<>

My notebook PC isn't here yet, I've to wait till next week for them to call me when it's ready for collection. I don't like the "delivery within 15 working days", it's the reason why it's not here yet. D: It's only the 9th working day today.

I'm actually listening to Siam Shade - Life, it's really good. The music and lyrics really make you think about one's life. This song is quite meaningful, though some people might label it as emo because of the music. -_- It can get depressing sometimes, but it's definitely not emo. Not to me, at least.

I've noticed that I've never listened to the song Ryuu which is on my blog. At first I choosed the non-autoplay version, as I didn't want people to be annoyed by sudden music when they come to my blog (because sometimes it's tiring to hear the same song after listening to it over the past few days). Perhaps I'll choose the autoplay version from imeem, though I have no idea if I want to change songs. After all, Ryuu is a good song, and I like Amano Tsukiko, her songs are really great. Koe happens to be my favourite. :D

Ah, life's been kind of boring and tiring what with all the Prep Maths I've been doing. However, I do not know if I even want to step out of the house. I wouldn't mind going to a friend's house, but I just feel a little emotionally-drained all of a sudden. -curls into a ball-

Maybe I need a break. Music helps, but boredom strikes me far more easily than before. Ah well, I should continue my progress on my cosplay costume. I did work on it in March, after taking a break in February (I guess I was that tired, though the others have done more work and thus they deserved a break far more than I do). The armour bits on the coat flaps are starting to bother me, I've redone them 5-6 times but they still seem off and unsatisfactory. -perfectionist mode on-

Signing off here because this fox child really needs to break his sleeping-damn-late habit, good night and sweet dreams.

Cheers,
Kitsune

Prep Maths Programme [Fox Disapproved!]

2009-03-25T22:10:00.003+08:00

Lol. That's the only thing I can say about the title of this post. What can I say? I like being lame, it's like my second nature, though my sarcasm is definitely first.

Anyway, I went to today's Prep Maths Programme mass briefing together with Pin Hao because both of our courses were not exempted from it as we did not take up A Maths in secondary school (not that I could take it anyway, since I couldn't even pass my E Maths). We arrived half an hour early as I was worried about how long it would take us to get there by train, since I am living on the East side after all.

We headed towards the auditorium where the briefing was held, and they gave us two documents which had some information on the programme. My face was frozen in an expression of D: when I looked at it, because I would have to complete all six tests before school term starts, which means that I'll have to cut down on outings with friends (not that I go out so much anyway, but it's nice to be able to hang out once in a while).

It was pretty okay, though the lecturer, Henry, kept making loads of jokes. I guess he wanted to get our attention since most of us, including myself, was spacing out. >D What do you expect? It's a MATHS briefing, and I hate Maths. There was a Q and A session too, though Henry said that as experience has shown that Engineering and Technological students are known to be shy, he would not be expecting anyone to raise their hands and ask a question. XD

...Seriously, I hate the term, "Technological students". Excuse me, I prefer to be called a Science student, since I am in the course of Chemical Process Technology. There. It's Chemistry-related, thank you very much. We do have modules dealing with technology, but the whole course deals mainly more towards the science area. Maybe I should have taken up Accounting instead, since I'm more towards the Humanities section...

Actually, I'm doing the first lesson of the Prep Maths while typing this post, haha. >D Too much Maths at once will make my poor Maths-fail brain explode. It's pretty interesting so far, since it's just the Real Numbers System which is basically like a revision of what I've learnt in secondary school. I just hope I get it right this time... >_>

Life's rather boring over here right now, as there's nothing much to do these days. Truth be told, I'm actually kind of glad that I have this Prep Maths to do. It's like studying, which I dearly miss (except for the Chinese, Social Studies and Maths). Even Physics is a little interesting now, though I will never love it. Sorry, Madam Sharifah, but I have never and still don't love Physics.

I have not touched my books in like 4 months, and it's a little weird, to be honest. I actually picked up my Chemistry textbook the other day and started reading it, though I went to sleep a short while after that because I was reading Chapter 1, which was short and not that interesting.

Well, I better get back to my lesson now, they're taking 30% of the six tests and 70% of the Post Test (which is held when school term starts) for my maths modules, yikes. D:

This fox wishes you good night and sweet dreams.

Happy Fox

2009-03-16T22:53:00.002+08:00

Woot.

Hannah said that she'll help me get the doujinshi.

That's right, the Samurai Warriors 2 doujinshi. http://cgi.ebay.com/Samurai-Warriors-2-comic-book-Mitsunari-Ishida-Sanada_W0QQitemZ370146492903QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item370146492903&_trksid=p3911.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1205%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318 The one that I want so much. :3

I love you so much for this. XD (LOL!!!) Seriously, I thought I wouldn't be able to get it at all. Seems like there's only 2 days left to purchase it, though no one seems to want it yet as it was previously put up for sale but no one bought it.

Hannah, I'm going to pay you back the cost of the doujinshi and shipping costs. Just tell me how much it is, and I'll pay you back once I get a part-time job in my second year (because I'm using this year to get used to poly life, lol). If you really get me this, I'll have no words to express my gratitude, man.

Anyway, I got my O Level certificate today. Still not very happy with the grades, but I'm slowly starting to accept it (Why my Science B3 only? DDDD: ). Apparently the whole "package" wasn't ready yet, the O Level certificate would come with a SGD certificate or something like that (Lol, whut?) so I'll have to go down again next week to get it.

Today was my enrolment day at Singapore Polytechnic, so I'm now officially a SP student, woot! XD Was actually pretty nervous, it was still raining and I was by myself without my parents (because I forgot to ask them DDD: ). Everywhere I looked, I saw people coming with their parents, even with their younger brothers/sisters too. When I went to enrol, I found out that I forgot to ask my father to sign my PSEA form and the Direct Credit form wasn't filled out as I thought it wasn't compulsory. -facepalm- ._.

When I went to Station 4 to make my student card, I was pretty irritated because the umbrella was quite a bother to hold as I had to keep reaching into my bag with one hand to get my stuff out. I just took a queue number, dropped my stuff onto the empty seat next to me, re-arranged my ponytail and combed my hair as it got messed up by the wind. When it was my turn, I went up to the counter, put my stuff on the floor, sat down in front of the camera and gave this annoyed expression ( "bu shuang" look on my student card, lol). It turned out pretty good, lol. XDDD Anyone who looks at my card can tell how annoyed I was by the whole procedure.

After getting my Freshmen Orientation Package, I left the Convention Centre through the first floor, which was leading to the CCA Fair. It was...interesting. First booth I came across was the Department of Student and Alumini Affairs, I believe. Apparently the Freshmen Orientation Camp was fully booked for both camps, so I left my name and contact for fun (because I didn't feel like rejecting their offer of helping me adjust to poly).

Most of the booths weren't open yet, so I kept wandering around. When I went by the Service Clubs section, one of the young ladies there came up to me and went, "Hey! I remember you from before!"

I went, "...Whut?" I admit, I was kind of stunned because I didn't think I was someone worthy of being remembered in poly (Haha), but she did look familiar. She was from the SP BP Mentoring Club, and she gave me this small flyer about the camp they were having. I took one look and went, "...what." It was called Twilight II, and the theme was vampires, zombies etc. You got to be kidding me.

Do I look like a Twilight fan to you?! What, do I seem like those OMG I LOVE TWILIGHT AND THAT HOT VAMPIRE GUY brain-dead fangirls?! (Sorry Twilight lovers, but I don't like it, period. And I know that not all girls who read Twilight are like that, but most of those girls I've seen are in fact brain-dead fangirls. No offense to my friends who are Twilight lovers. )That series nearly killed my brain. No thanks, I rather keep my sanity and my intelligence intact.

Anyway, I signed up for Archery and Japanese Cultural Club (WIN! >D ) at the CCA Fair, they had all these different flyers for new students to fill out the bottom half and drop it into the box if they were interested in a certain CCA. I heard from one of the Archery members that some poly students actually took 3-5 CCAs. WTH.

This fox shall stop this post here and bid you all good night. :3

Bored Fox

2009-03-07T23:45:00.003+08:00

....................................

Okay, firefly, are you happy now? I'm updating my blog again (and you're the one with a rarely updated blog too >_> ). I saw your blog post about not buying those doujins for me D: , don't be evil. I'm going to cut down from three doujins (freaking expensive, I know) to only one. That's right, ONE.

http://cgi.ebay.com/Samurai-Warriors-2-comic-book-Mitsunari-Ishida-Sanada_W0QQitemZ370146492903QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item370146492903&_trksid=p3911.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1205%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318

At the very least, get me this doujinshi. D: -sad face- That way it's cheaper and I'll be able to pay you back faster when I get a job in my second year of poly. (and you still owe me $9 >DDD ).

Not much to say now, life's been pretty boring these days. It's mostly eat, sleep, play for me nowadays. At least I have the IT Fair to look forward to, and my enrollment date on 16 March. I'm so gonna stick out like a sore thumb in poly.... not that I mind though. Once a loner, always a loner.

I'll stop here for now, otherwise I'll just be boring you guys. This fox wishes you all good night and sweet dreams.

Been Sleeping Extremely Late...And This Fox's Loving It XD

2009-03-04T21:26:00.004+08:00

Hey guys. Haven't updated this blog for some time due to laziness and a lack of things to say. :/ My enrollment day's on 16 March, and it's been rather boring waiting for that day to come. At least I'm going to the IT Fair with Razinah on 12 March to look at laptops, though I did want to buy it from the SP RoadShow.

I've been nua-ing around all day, and apparently my sleeping pattern's changed. I'm still active at night since I'm naturally nocturnal, but nowadays it's even weirder: I can stay up till the next morning without feeling sleepy. I usually wait till 1 or 2am to sleep, but now I can be wide awake till 6am from the previous day, maximum being 9am. I'll feel sleep-deprived after that time and go to sleep till 4pm. Well, this gives me an excellent chance to catch up on my sleep before school starts. XD

Oh yeah, last Sunday Oliver, Kyoko, Jason and I went out to Suntec to catch a movie together. We wanted Sherry and Yingqi to come along as well, but they were going to have their JC SPA tests soon so they couldn't make it. :/ Good luck for your A Levels, Sherry and Yingqi! :D Anyway, we couldn't decide on which movie to watch (I wanted to watch Valkyrie, it looked bad-ass to me. XD ) so we went window-shopping first.

The others were looking at figurines and whatnot in a nearby shop, though I'm not really interested in those. It was kind of cramped in there, but man, did they have loads of figurines in there. It was pretty cool, but I was more interested in playing archery so we went to Dm Archery to play a game of 12 arrows each for $5 (Jason paid for all of us. Thanks Jason! :D ). Kyoko and I used a lighter bow but it was still rather tiring to hold the bow after shooting 5-6 arrows. My left hand kept shaking when I held up the bow and shot my arrows; sadly, none of them hit the centre, most of them were either all over the place or in the blue area. I had to keep adjusting my fingers so that they won't touch the arrow. Our arrows were mostly off-target except for Jason's; his arrows were all neatly fired and arranged in or near the centre. Awesome. :3

Speaking of polytechnics, I had wanted to take up the Japanese Language course in SP, but my friends advised me not to because it'll be a waste of time as poly's JL courses wouldn't teach me much. Looks like I'll learn it after poly at JCS instead. The Diploma-Plus certificate in Applied Psychology is out of the question too, I wouldn't be able to cope with two diplomas, two CCAs and a part-time job at the same time. I'll be looking for a part-time job in my second year instead, Cyrus advised me to use the first year to get adjusted to poly life (I owe her a huge thanks for being willing to listen and give so much advice to me, she's like a big sister to me. :3 ). The two CCAs I'll be joining are Japanese Cultural Club and Archery (the recreational section, I'm too noob to join the competitive section), which are pretty relaxing as Archery practice sessions are once a week and JCC is anytime, anywhere.

I don't know who else is going to SP, so it's just Pin Hao (my primary school classmate) and me. -sob- I am so going to have a hard time fitting into SP.At least I can just pop over now and then over to Esther's school, it's ITE Clementi which is only a train station away. >D

Well, I guess I'll stop here for now. I've been spending some time on my brother's PSP, playing Blade Dancer: Lineage of Light. My characters are all Level 50 now with Lvl 50 weapons and equipment, time for me to unleash some badass-ery on those pesky monsters! XDDD

This fox bids you all good night and sweet dreams!

P.S. Woot! I managed to put music on my blog, though it's not auto-play and the box's kinda over the table but... who cares! Yay music!

A Quick Update From This Fox...

2009-02-18T21:20:00.005+08:00

Well, the blog's still a little screwy right now, sorry about that. I plan to change it soon, so do wait till then.

Anyway,this post is to inform certain people of what I really want from ebay right now. >DDDD

Anyone who has Paypal, MasterCard, etc, can you please buy these three doujinshi for me? XD I can't do it myself as my family doesn't have MasterCard or any other cards (SERIOUSLY). Of course, I don't expect you to buy it for me as a present. I will pay back anyone who helps me purchase those three doujinshi online, just wait for me to get a job first (which will be soon).

Anyway, those three doujinshi add up to $47.97 all together, though it will cost more due to it being shipped from the US. Someone please help me purchase those three doujinshi; as I've said earlier, I will pay you back. Thank you very much / Arigato gozaimasu (thought it only right that I thank you in both languages XD ).

This fox is signing off for now.

P.S. I'm serious about wanting those doujinshi, and I WILL really pay back anyone if they purchase it for me, including the shipping costs.

Additional note: Yeah, I know that the links cut into my biography. Please ignore that fact; buy the doujins for me instead. >DDDDDD

Disappointments,Delight and an Exhausted Fox Child

2009-02-03T00:15:00.004+08:00

Hm, it has been some time since I've last updated my blog, has it not? I believe you would have noticed a change in my blog template, much thanks to Renn for helping me with it. Arigato gozaimasu, Renn-san. :D There are still a few errors, but they should be dealt with soon.

Anyway, the disappointments mentioned in the title of this post refers to my O Level results. D: I got 17 points for my L1R4, including my CCA grade which allowed me to cut off one point. I had expected to do better than this, at least 15 points. My English grade was A2 (damn, I wanted A1), my POA was B3, and my Combined Science was B3 as well (a huge disappointment, as I wanted A1 and had found both Chemistry and Physics papers to be rather easy). I was unable to get into Applied Drama and Psychology at Singapore Polytechnic despite applying for both JAE and JPSAE (this year's COP for the course is 13).

I am rather fortunate to be able to get into Chemical Process Technology at Singapore Polytechnic though, that was my 3rd choice. You can learn more about it here: http://www.sp.edu.sg/SPweb/appmanager/home/default_nfpb=true&_pageLabel=SP_FS_Courses_CLS_FT_CPT
It's not bad, but the Basic Mathematics and Engineering Mathematics modules are quite troubling. Never thought I had to care about Maths again...sigh.

I'm glad I was posted into Singapore Polytechnic, I find the atmosphere there to be quite friendly and relaxing, and I like the look of the place. Anyone else besides my secondary school classmate and primary school classmate going into Singapore Polytechnic? I'm feeling a little lonely at the thought... D:

Ah, yes, Cosplay Challenge 09. Honestly, I was quite disappointed by the whole event. My cousin and I were unable to complete our costumes in time, so we decided not to participate on the day of the event. I shall not elaborate on the full details, but the workshop was honestly a waste of time and money for us as we didn't really learn much and it wasn't organized well. I am glad that I've met Kyoko, Jason, Sherry, Ying Qi, Adeline and Fuzzy from the workshop, they're really a great bunch of people who we've met from Cosplay Challenge. Let's go out one day and have fun, yeah? :D We can meet up for coffee if you're free, Kyoko.

SOYA (Start Of Year Again) was really fun, I went with Hong Wei and Chee How at around 1-2pm as I had to go home from Cosplay Challenge first to store a few of my cosplay items. I bought a D. Gray Man wallet from the Pan-In-The-Box stall, it was really cute and only cost me $10 (hey, I needed a new wallet anyway. :P ). The performance wasn't that interesting, Chee How and I went in for a brief look before escaping to protect our ears. XD

Oh yeah, I met Shizuka at SOYA too. :D She was really more beautiful in person, and she was really nice and friendly. I was so nervous, I accidently shook her whole hand when she offered me her hand to shake. >///<>

Today, Jill and I went to Singapore Polytechnic for the JAE Appeal Exercise. I had wanted to appeal for Applied Drama and Psychology, but I didn't meet the COP so I couldn't apply. If I really wanted to get in the course, I would have to make a new portfolio and write an appeal letter, and submit it by tomorrow because my previous portfolio was non-returnable. D: I hardly think I stand a chance now, so I'm sticking to Chemical Process Technology. I hope Jill is successful in her appeal, Industrial Design in Nanyang Polytechnic hardly suits her, in my opinion. She can do better courses than that, she has real talents.

Yup, I'm rather exhausted right now, and this post is rather long, to compensate for not updating for such a long period. This fox child needs his rest (yes, I want to be a male, it feels more natural).

Cheers,
Kitsune

D:

I hate my job right now.

Why on earth did I even agree to it?

That's right, I'm working as a bookshop helper at Maris Stella High School. D: The bookshop serves both primary and secondary school students,so the normal long queue at the start of the school year is twice as long. D: Not to mention that there's only the bookshop auntie and I working there. I work from 7am-3pm, 8 hours for $30 per day. D: D: D:

I must be crazy.

Well, it's most likely that I'll only be working there for this week,the crowd's starting to die down now. The bookshop auntie said that if the crowd dies down by this week, I'll be working for only a week. If not,it'll be for 2 weeks. D: D: Please let it be one week...

I'll update this post later on with more (mini-rants) information about my job so far, I'm very tired and my feet are killing me. >_<

Free Tofu for this exhausted fox, please.

Lazy Fox

2008-12-03T09:26:00.003+08:00

Hey,everyone who's reading this.

I know I haven't updated my blog for a few days (I think),but that's because I've been busy lately.Besides,I never know what to write most of the time.

Remember my previous blog entry about me getting a job as an English tutor for a Primary 1 kid?I FAIL AT TEACHING.The job is now passed to Jill,a good friend of mine who is way better at teaching kids.I've neither the patience nor the ability to communicate with children well,so the tutoring was going horribly wrong when I was doing it.I have faith that Jill will be able to do a better job than me and that she'll be able to help the kid raise his English grade.

Anyway,I'm looking for employment now together with my cousin.It's funny,though.We had made a promise before the O Levels to find employment together,but I broke the promise when I was offered the tutoring job.At least I'm still able to keep to that promise despite breaking it.We're still waiting for the people to call,though,it's been 5 days already,not counting today.I really hope they call us soon,we need to get employment this holidays.

I guess I'll stop here for now,I have to get ready some stuff (not telling what it is).

This fox is going to be so busy with stuff.

Exhausted Fox

2008-11-18T13:32:00.003+08:00

I feel like I've been hit by a car,run over a couple of times by a truck,and stabbed countless times.It was our Prom Night yesterday at York Hotel which was so magnificent that I felt extremely out-of-place there. Middle-class person(me) + York Hotel = Commoner in a high-class hotel -sob-

It was rather fun though,seeing our friends all dressed up and wearing make-up.I was obviously not one of those wearing make-up,all I put on was lip conditioner.My mother had lent me her jacket,but it clashed with my turquoise dress.Luckily,Jill's shawl was turquoise in colour and it matched my dress so I lent her my jacket while she lent me her shawl.It's weird how my jacket matches her dress while her shawl matches my dress.She looked pretty good too,all dressed up with make-up on.

It was way too cold in the Rose Room and Marie Room (which was reserved for our school) so I kept the shawl on the whole time,but Hannah kept trying to get me to take it off whenever we went to find the teachers. :D She looked really good in her dress,but that's no surprise since she's always looking that nice (no,I'm not trying to butter you up,Hannah.It's the truth.And I know that you are reading my blog since I told you the address. XD).

Esther,Jill and Hwee Fong were seated at Table 12 instead of Table 13 as there were simply no space at Table 13,though Shawn managed to get a space for Damian at our table by making us squeeze together a little.Only 15 out of the 47 of us came for the prom.I guess the others just couldn't be bothered to come (or pay the $57).The others wrote my name down on the nomination form for Prom Queen despite my protests though,I guess they wanted one last chance to irritate me.Good thing I wasn't one of the finalists,I never stood a chance anyway.The food was rather good,and I had rice,fish and tofu. XD Hey,foxes need their tofu,you know?

I'll stop here for now,since I've a whole bunch of things to do online.I'm going to start working at 3pm so I'll be back later.See you later.

This fox is going to work.

When The Fox First Appears

2008-11-14T21:51:00.007+08:00

After so many delays,I've finally got around to making a blog.It's rather unusual though,since I don't normally do things like this.I have no computer knowledge either...stuff like html or making a website really confuses me.

..............................

What else can I write for my first post?Hm......

Our O Levels are finally over,and everyone's searching for a job now during the holidays (but you all know that,of course).The economy's in a rather bad state now,but everyone should be able to find employment easily (I hope... -sweatdrop-).

My typing style's still the same,be it sms or typing on the computer.It's so formal and stiff that anyone knows it's me,right? XD I am so lame.

Since the O Levels are over,I have the freedom to play video games,listen to music, etc every single day of the holidays.I still feel rather tired though...call it the after-effects of the examinations.

This is so pathetic.I think I'll edit it later on,but for now I'll stop here.

This fox is going to slumber.
