WIRELESS @ SG

1st time tapping into the free internet island-wide (selected hotspots) access to Internet..
I think i sound kinda Old.. Cos this WL@ SG thing has been implemented since how many XXX years ago~

Just that i didnt have a laptop then, so done all my surfing at home or in school~
Last week, I suddenly decide to sign up for Wireless account..Teehee..
I signed up not only for 1, i signed up with all available network operators~
Singtel, M1 & iCell..
In theory, u only need 1 account. Cos the 3 operators' users can tap into the same network..
But being the kiasu Sporean, u know la... Hehe.. Since it's FOC anw.. It's one of the national privileges..

Now i'm sitting in Burger King outlet near my house, it's often empty (i wonder how BK do business.. cos some of their outlets are like practically empty, lest for some pple who use their place for studying and free internet access)

Was cursing Wireless when it d/c while i was surfing FB..
Tried to login again using my Singtel acct.. It refused to work. WTF. So i continued using my M1 account.. M1's more reliable i guess..
I shall try iCell next time~~

To test the connection speed, i DL a 100MB music album.. Turned out to be pretty fast! Much faster than TeePi wireless..
Youtube videos load quite fast too~

Shall post a MV i was watching just now...
Magic Girl --by Orange Caramel.. It's a kpop song by a girlgrp, but it sounds like cutesy jpop~
I think it's gg to be another fav song for korean male idols to spoof..
Girls Generation's Gee was the MASSIVE hit.. Like all the idol guys are dancing to it..
Can't wait to see guys dance to this song, actually i've alrdy seen 1...
Hee Chul fr Super Junior.. On his DJ talkshow 'Young Street' the video footage of him dancing in his DJ seat to Magic Girl when he played that song on air, was circulated on korean news & fansites.. Hehe..

He's god-damn pro, he made used of the short time off to check his phone, while dialling on his phone, he swayed to the catchy beat..
Wonder how he can do that.. Shaking ard still can see the numbers onscreen xD
Towards the end, aft he made the phonecall, he was dancing so vigorously in his seat that viewers thought the chair's gg to fall apart soon. LOLs..

Paparazzeee in TeePi Part II

I remember blogging about many celebrity-lookalikes, i havent been following up on updates sadly..

So here's one..

Today when i took bus 15 fr interchange, i saw a Ryo Nishikido lookalike!!!
OMG like those eyes, few pple have those kind of eyes. Sleepy, yet awake & curious, half-opened eyes covered partially by a thick side swept fringe, fans call those deep-set dreamy eyes.. Oki, whichever set of description u prefer... Those are special eyes that attract attention LOLs.

His side profile & 3quarter side face really look like Ryo Nishikido.. Btw Ryo's the pro guy who happened to be in 2 JE idol groups: NEWS, Kanjani8
Don't ask me why is he so lucky.. Cos i dun give a damn about them anymore~~
I was once a fan of NEWS (cos of Yamapi) but NEVER liked Kanjani8.. I think K8 is like sticking out like a sore thumb in the midst of other prettyboys idol grp in JE.

I hardly see Johnny Entertainment (JE) boys lookalike in S'pore, the previous time i saw one (half year ago) it was my TOP FAVE Kamenashi Kazuya, the previous previous time was in 2008, i saw 3 Hey! Say! JUMP members' lookalikes. U can call that a major coup.. hehe.. At the Clementi bus stop where i used to take buses regularly was the 'SPOT a cute/handsome Japanese boy' hotspot.. As there's a Japanese high school nearby..
A forever regretted thing was, I somehow chose to stand in a position whereby I couldnt see the cutest HSJ-lookalike boy --Yuri Chinen.. OFMG i must have gone bonkers then made a bad choice.. The other 2 lookalikes resemble Ryutaro Morimoto & Keito Okamoto.
Nvm if those jap names sound alien, cos there's 10 boys in HSJ, ability to recognise them is considered quite a feat, much less rmb their names.


Talking abt taking buses..
Awhile back, i was queuing to board a bus at TP bus stop, happened to turn and see a guy who looks like Julian Hee (Local actor better known for his hunky image than his acting chops ---he was a Mr Singapore Universe).. I did a double take... Teehee, cos i've nv seen someone resemble Julian.
On further LOOK, i realised he has got Elvin Ng type of eyes..
OMG.. Julian Hee face + Elvin Ng eyes..
It'll be gd if he has Dai Yang Tian's tanned skin..
Hehe.. The combination of top hunks in Mediacorp = Major Hunk??
I dunno~ I will tell u when i see one~

End of Paparazzeee Report II

===============================================
Note to self:

Singapore is fast becoming the place for Korean artistes to come and earn $ aka lao1 jin1..
Just earlier this month, A-listers Super Junior & Wonder Girls dropped by to endorse mobile phones, Samsung Galaxy S & Sony Ericsson~
Only lucky fans who bought the phones get tickets to a showcase to watch their idols..
WHAT A GOOD MARKETING GIMMICK.

Then less than a mth later we've 2AM to promote Starhub mobile & Lee Minho (BOF lead) will be here to promote LG phones..

Very Soon, Kpop fans will all have an excess of new phones..
By-product of going to one-too-many Korean stars' showcases..

IF ONLY, LG will bring in Big Bang to promote their LG Lollipop phones, they're the phone's ambassadors in Korea and even sang a song 'Lollipop Part 2' just for that.. The MV looks like an extended commercial as i watch Big Bang sing & dance while holding LG Lollipop phones.
Yes it's funny, but thats the whole concept behind the Lollipop commercial, being fun-loving, have lotsa fun and be really happy cos u've gotten a great phone..


I like my latest msn aka windows live nick and personal msg~
Nick: F.Cuz. Focus. Fo-kez.
It's a wordplay on the name of a boyband that got my attn recently... F.Cuz.. It's read as Focus, i think the fullstop takes the place of the O..
It's gd in a way that it tells me to FOCUS when i'm doing research work online..

(P.S Focusing on F.Cuz isn't gg to help things hehehe)

I'd a wordplay on Music in my PM previously: Muzik. Musiq. Miusic.

Personal Msg: A lil bit of Seoul is all i need~
I read it in some article while researching for my Korean pop music album covers collage, changing Soul to Seoul to cater to the Korean Wave sweeping through Asia..

I suddenly have to urge to end my blogpost the LiveJournal way~~
where there's additional sections to fill at the end of the post~

Mood: Cool
Location: School Library Level 7
Listening to: BMG (Boy Meet Girl) by F.Cuz ---major coincidence while i was typing this..

Here's Block 3 ---arguably the slackest block

More theory based modules.. Last block was hell cos 2 very hands-on modules were placed side by side.. This block, much of my time was spent online..
My bro came home fr work and commented, u seem to be online every night
My reply? Yep, need to do research then homework's a journal entry a day

Bad thing is many pple procrastinate (a hell lot more) while online, too many distractions.. we know of too many good websites, videos, entertainment thats available FOC & 24/7.

Typical night goes like this:
8pm after dinner.... Switch on laptop... Surf surf surf, check FB kaypoh kaypoh...
Realised it's 10++pm then start researching after reading Lesson Notes... End work at typically 12++ or 1+ am..

Burning midnight oil for nothing eh?

=====================================================
Been gg out a lot these days.. Shld update a lil~~

--Ladies Night at Mind cafe (tamp) with XZ & YW.. it's been awhile since i went there.. Played Clue for an entire hour (boardgame/guess who's the murderer, whats the weapon & in which room) Outcome: I won!!
Yayness!
Had supper at 24h coffeeshop b4 heading home.. Chicken satay & Rojak!!

--Fri night @ Orchard Cine with Hoono peepz (1st time gg Hoono gathering cos they always schedule on days i cant go)
Movie in a cosy suite at E! Max level 9~ a good hangout for 4 frens & above, just book a room and rent a DVD.. It costs lesser than gg2 the cinemas.. And u can talk all u like while watching the movie.. U can even *shush* smuggle food inside there.
They dun catch pple.. We experienced 1st hand.. Heehee..
Zaza thot remote control's nt working, so went outside to gt assistance.. next thing we knew, the person came in & all of us were eating dinner.......
FOOD ~ all types fast food to rice to soupy stuff all sprawled on the floor like picnic in the park (cos no tables there)
We all stunned & stopped eating for that eternal moment~~
SILENCE~~~~~~~~~~~

ROFL recalling that moment..

--Went Bugis shopping w my Mum, brought her to Art Friend (she's nv been there, tho she'd been to Bras Basah Cmplx umpteen times) as i wanted to get art supplies..
Saw WONDER GIRLS at Illuma!! Walked into Illuma and saw pple queuing and crowded near the stage.
Quite special entrance was created.. Wonder Girls to stroll into mall after alighting fr car and go straight to level 2 via escalator outside.. I thot it was quite creative... As the Sony Ericsson store's at level 2.. Of course want brand ambassadors to visit the store first b4 gg to meet fans..

It's a Meet & greet session~ I've learnt that u must take word-for-word in the event title for Korean stars events... Autograph session is strictly autograph only (note: no 'S', so 1 autograph fr 1 member of entire grp only)
So no performances.. Just smile + short short interview then started autographing for those lucky fans who're rich enough to buy Sony Eric phones..

--Bakerzin outing w Clover.. Well, in the end went Manpuku.. Hehe..
Omu rice is nice! Looks healthy too: got coleslaw (veggie), egg, rice, prawn.. all for $6.50 ^^
Another thing i like is the ambience.. The jap food court is huge with many cosy, carefully decorated corners for more privacy in dining..
We turned it into a good photoshoot opportunity =D

--Fathers' Day went Downtown East w family to Just Acia.. Last time we went was in Xmas.. The restaurant has new menu and new coffee making machine! Now it dispenses Hot Chocolate =D i drank 2 cups teehee...
I love the chicken teriyaki & soft shell crab set meal i ordered, the noodles my mum ordered was nice too, QQ de..

--John Clang's exhibition at Mt Sophia.. 5 pple grp outing (part of ComDI module) became a mini class outing of sorts when 16 pple turned up..
Imagine AYK, MIY & I's surprise when we (who said 'meet at 1030am') arrived at 1055am & saw many classmates seated on 3/4 tables outside Starbucks..
*Sweats* We really ta4 pai2 hor? =x
Paiseh neh..
Class photoshoot outside the gallery as we couldnt find other exhibitions to visit~
Wanted to go Haji Lane for photoshoot Part II, but it was raining cats & dogs.. Lost the mood lor..

--SCG 22 outing ytd.. I super ON.. Full day with SM.. 3 sessions in 1 day.. We've lunch, games at Mind Cafe then Dinner.. Whoever can join in just come for whichever session. Only SM & I stay throughout..
Lunch @ MOF Japanese food..
Mind Cafe @ Funan.. 1st time gg there.. It's quite popular, almost all seats were taken..
Dinner @ Aston's in Suntec.. Cheap & Gd western food.. There's always a queue outside the restaurant~
Like eating the whole day~ Outings/Gatherings is a gd way to fatten up~

Long List of updates for the outings i'd over the past 2 weeks~
Upcoming saturday i've a full day of activities too~ 3 sessions/places in a day..
Bad thing is, i've lessons that morn & aftn.. wtf StuPid teepi spoil our beautiful Sat..
so by right i can't attend session 1 & 2.. BUT by left, i'm def Going for session 2..

Cloud wants longer Sundaysssssssssssssss..

Blogging abt 2nd block of sch, only aft 2nd block ended..

Cos was just too busy with sch work~ Not enough time to sleep, No time to blog or FB too~



First time experiencing 2 modules in 1 block & morning class at 9am!!!!
Human traffic jam, need to wait for 2nd bus from interchange.. 1st day of class, at least 10 pple were late.. Young & kinda cranky VPres teacher became damn pis*ed off with our class~~ Scolded each & every one's who was late..
第一堂课就来个吓马威~ 挺厉害滴~

In the initial weeks, another stressful thing is the VPres teacher expects work to be submitted the very next morn 905am (exact time of dateline)..

6pm end of the day's lessons.. 7+pm reach home... Countdown: How many hours left to do assignment?

This Mad chase of daily datelines was draining my energies at an accelerating speed..

Another Mad thing is, everyone seems to be working late into the night..
-girls afraid to go out of house at 2am to use the spray mount (fyi, spray mount's highly toxic & can't be used indoors/enclosed areas) end up having sticky floors cos they sprayed in their own rooms
-guy afraid of being mistaken as loanshark runner while 'loitering' ard the corridor late at night ---with a spray can in hand (under dim light spray mount can = spray paint can?)
LoLness

Ultimate Madness is, i'm moving into the last weeks of study at NAFA = final submissions to rush!

The Maddest thing is, i didnt really feel the tiredness... The design spirit kept me (us) going~~



UNTIL..



Fell sick 2 weeks ago aft chiong-ing too much.. My supposedly strong immune system's weakened by sleep deprivation..

I was in class, felt my head was heating up but at the same time i felt cold... Hot & Cold at the same time.. I was like 'Sheeeet... sick liao la' =x



On MC for 2 days..

Cos i'd fever everyday for 3 days.. Like WTH what new virus is that? I usually dun have recurring fevers..


While i was sick, i continued working on my bookmark designs.. Talking abt Live & Breathe Design.. As long as i Live/Breathe, i Design..

SOOO glad that this hiong block has ended 2 days ago... 2 modules with a lot of assignments & brainstorming shldn't be placed togt lor...

Next block starting on coming mon~ 2 modules too, but more theoretical modules this time..

I am a NAFA grad!!!!
Can't wait to get my certification soon~~~~~
Something that i worked for.. Paid the fees on my own.. Attended almost all the night classes despite being tired after work (4+ mths) and school (1+ mth)
Completed almost all the assignments..
What a feat~

CLOUD rocks!


and she knows it~ (^o^v)
