This few days I really got nothing better to do, so bored and lost. Starting from the day before I start to draw all this picture(one day each). Haiz.. my scanner spoilt that's why I take a photo of it. Can't really see because of the lighting, I'm not a good photographer actually -.-'' ... hehexx

Actually I wanted to draw a Chinese Dragon today but it's a bit difficult and complicated for me, I'm still learning how to draw a dragon(a nice one).

Went to Joycelyn house for dinner just now to countdown for her birthday ........ we went out to LAN center after dinner and played counterstrike for some rounds and we played DOTA after that. Angelia didn't join the dota match because she doesn't know how to play that game.
While we were playing halfway through the dota match, Wei Jun(bday girl's bf) pause the game beacuse it's going to 12midnight so we went to take the cake which they put it at the counter and sing a birthday song for her in the LAN shop. After eating the cake we continue the match. The result??? My group won!!! Which include Ben(my boyfriend), Xian Long and his girlfriend.
After the match we play "spot the different" for 10mins till the shop close.
After that??? Go home loh!!
Joycelyn says she wanted to celebrate 2 days so we going out tomorrow(ops actually is later) again to celebrate her birthday.
THE MAYAN CALENDAR DOES NOT END IN 2012 KEEP READING!!!
The date December 21st, 2012 A.D. (13.0.0.0.0 in the Long Count), represents an extremely close conjunction of the Winter Solstice Sun with the crossing point of the Galactic Equator (Equator of the Milky Way) and the Ecliptic (path of the Sun), what that ancient Maya recognized as the Sacred Tree. This is an event that has been coming to resonance very slowly over thousands and thousands of years. It will come to resolution at exactly 11:11 am GMT.
The Tzolkin is a 260-day calendar based around the period of human gestation. It is composed of 20 day-signs, each of which has 13 variations, and was (and still is) used to determine character traits and time harmonics, in a similar way to Western astrology. The Maya also used a 365-day calendar called the Haab, and a Venus calendar, plus others. They measured long time periods by means of a Long Count, in which one 360-day year (a "Tun"), consists of 18 x 20-day "months" ("Uinals"). Twenty of these Tuns is a Katun; 20 Katuns is a Baktun (nearly 400 years); and 13 Baktuns adds up to a "Great Cycle" of 1,872,000 days, ( 5200 Tuns, or about 5125 years).
Mayan scholars have been attempting to correlate the Long Count with our Western Gregorian calendar, since the beginning of this century. There has been massive variation in the suggested correlations, but as early as 1905, Goodman suggested a correlation only 3 days from the most popular one today. Known as the GMT correlation, or "correlation # 584283", this was finalized in 1950, and puts the start of the Great Cycle ( day 0.0.0.0.0) on 11th August 3114 BC, and the end-date (known as 13.0.0.0.0.) as 21st December 2012.
Jose Arguelles has pointed out that the Tzolkin is a harmonic of the Great Cycle, and can be used to map history, as if it is measuring not individual gestation but species gestation, since 5 Great Cycles add to exactly 26,000 Tuns; the "Grand Year" or precession of the equinoxes - a higher harmonic of 260.
NOTE: The astronomer Philip Plait has stated very clearly that the Mayan calendar does not end in 2012 at all, that it is like the odometer on your car, as each section of the odometer reaches 9 and then clicks over to 0, the next number to it starts a new cycle, so that when all the numbers again reach 0 all the way across the odometer - the last number will change from 1 to 2 and the new cycle starts all over again.
Sunspot Cycles; Adrian Gilbert and Maurice Cotterell, in their book the Mayan Prophecies, say that the end of the Great Cycle is the culmination of a series of long-term sunspot cycles which will flip the sun’s magnetic field, causing earthquakes and flooding on earth. Moreover, the changing magnetic field will alter the endocrine production of the pineal gland. John Major Jenkins has pointed out that the detailed graphs of the cycles do not actually show significant termination points at the end of the Great Cycle; click here for Jenkins' full unabridged review of The Mayan Prophecies.
According to John Major Jenkins, it will take 36 years to
Note: Real science is predicting the next/current sun cycle to be the worst in 50 years. The first two sunspot's of 2006 are moving in reverse direction.
August 15, 2006: On July 31st, a tiny sunspot was born. It popped up from the sun's interior, floated around a bit, and vanished again in a few hours. On the sun this sort of thing happens all the time and, ordinarily, it wouldn't be worth mentioning. But this sunspot was special: It was backward.
"We've been waiting for this," says David Hathaway, a solar physicist at the Marshall Space Flight in Huntsville, Alabama. "A backward sunspot is a sign that the next solar cycle is beginning."

"Backward" means magnetically backward. Hathaway explains:
Sunspots are planet-sized magnets created by the sun's inner magnetic dynamo. Like all magnets in the Universe, sunspots have north (N) and south (S) magnetic poles. The sunspot of July 31st popped up at solar longitude 65o W, latitude 13o S. Sunspots in that area are normally oriented N-S. The newcomer, however, was S-N, opposite the norm.
This tiny spot of backwardness matters because of what it might foretell: A really big solar cycle.
Solar activity rises and falls in 11-year cycles, swinging back and forth between times of quiet and storminess. Right now the sun is quiet. "We're near the end of Solar Cycle 23, which peaked way back in 2001," explains Hathaway. The next cycle, Solar Cycle 24, should begin "any time now," returning the sun to a stormy state.
Satellite operators and NASA mission planners are bracing for this next solar cycle because it is expected to be exceptionally stormy, perhaps the stormiest in decades. Sunspots and solar flares will return in abundance, producing bright auroras on Earth and dangerous proton storms in space: full story.
But when will Solar Cycle 24 begin?
"Maybe it already did--on July 31st," says Hathaway. The first spot of a new solar cycle is always backwards. Solar physicists have long known that sunspot magnetic fields reverse polarity from cycle to cycle. N-S becomes S-N and vice versa. "The backward sunspot may be the first sunspot of Cycle 24."
It sounds exciting, but Hathaway is cautious on several fronts:
First, the sunspot lasted only three hours. Typically, sunspots last days, weeks or even months. Three hours is fleeting in the extreme. "It came and went so fast, it was not given an official sunspot number," says Hathaway. The astronomers who number sunspots didn't think it worthy!
Second, the latitude of the spot is suspicious. New-cycle sunspots almost always pop up at mid-latitudes, around 30o N or 30o S. The backward sunspot popped up at 13o S. "That's strange."
These odd-isms stop Hathaway short of declaring the onset of a new solar cycle. "But it looks promising," he says.
Even if Cycle 24 has truly begun, "don't expect any great storms right away." Solar cycles last 11 years and take time to build up to fever pitch. For a while, perhaps one or two years, Cycle 23 and Cycle 24 will actually share the sun, making it a hodgepodge of backward and forward spots. Eventually, Cycle 24 will take over completely; then the fireworks will really begin.
Meanwhile, Hathaway plans to keep an eye out for more backward sunspots.
I was packing my house yesterday and wanted to sell and throw all my old things away.
So today, there is one garang guni man came so we sell those unwanted things to him include one old Computer.
The garang guni man says he just want the CPU he doesn't want the keyboard, mouse, speaker and monitor. So my maid put it out side.
I told her to bring it in cos it can be sold and if it rains the monitor will spoilt but she says she's tired and said she will do it later. So by the time she go out, IT DISAPPEAR!!!!!
I'm so ANGRY now, told her to bring it in she don't want and now someone took it away!!! WTF man....
When out with mom in the afternoon today. Actually my sis and mom went out first and I told them I'll meet them a bit later but when they are out for just 1 hour, my sis called and told me that my mom wants to buy a phone and she forgot to bring her IC along, making me rush to Toa Payoh central and meet them.
Mom told me that Singtel has a promotion for KU990 at only $88 so we went to Singtel shop after she bought her phone at M1 shop. I trade in my old phone for $100 and re-sign my contract to get that phone. I suppose to get back $12 but the sales guy told me to exchange my 1GB memory card for a 2GB one at $12 so that he don't need to pay me back the balance and I agreed.
After buying phone we went to buy some clothes for CNY. Actually it's for a wedding dinner of my mom's friend tomorrow but we bought for CNY too, we shop in a shop for 1hr plus and bought 2 dress, 2 shorts, 1 pants, 1 shirt and 1 vest.
Around 7.30pm we went to the BAH KUT TEH shop for our dinner. The food there are not very nice and it's so damn expensive. Can you imagine 3 person for $50 plus? I mean $50 for eating not VERY tasty food. I rather eat at hawker center which taste better than this and it cost only $20 plus for 3 person bah.

Went Orchard with Ben yesterday evening, actually I just wanna shop for awhile and go home but Ben wanted to watch movie so we walk from Somerset to Plaza Sing for movie but there are not much choice for us so we went to the arcade for some game. After playing, we felt very bored so we still decided to watch movie.
We watch Quantum Of Solace, this show is all about action. To be honest, not really my type of movie but not bad lah still can understand.
Beside our own space and time, there are eleven other dimensions exist side by side with Mojie, a dimension where evil resides. And this story began in the Gold dimension where Da Dong and his gang lived and fought the dark forces from Mojie. After the gang lost all their powers in the last battle, Xiu travelled to other dimensions to find Da Dong's alternate self. His search led him to a boy named Xia Tian in the Iron dimension. The boy's incredible power is sealed away by a Fenglongtie on his neck. If he could harness the boy's power, the boy can save all the worlds from falling into the hands of Mojie.
I just started watching this show and it seems to be quite interesting and funny. Really not much to say about it. Go watch it yourself bah. I just wanna share a nice show with you guys.
If you wanna watch it but can't find it click here. (chinese sub)
I've decided to post this is because I really can't stand seeing him getting hurt like this all the time.
K, a friend of mine, has broke up with his girlfriend(A) for quite some time. This is the story of A and him.
.
.
.
.
.
.
After breaking up with A, K wants continue their friendship although they can't be couple and A agree that too. Time past and things has change, A started to show attitude towards K whenever she saw him.
What did K did??
No.. he didn't do anything that makes her angry.
(A was afraid that she might gave K an intention of giving him a chance to patch up.)
There was a day that K's friends(G and his GF) call them out for some shopping and K told them he doesn't feel like going because he was afraid the A doesn't like.
(and A told them if he was there then she won't be going)
But somehow they manage to ask her out and told K that she won't mind if he goes.
So ... K went with them...
When there reach and started to shop, K alone behind them all the time while they shop because A doesn't wants to talk to him and keep showing that "du lan" face of hers that's why he rather stay alone than making her feels so uneasy.
Ai ya to make it short ... the whole day she gave him a very "du lan" face lo and make him feel so hurt.
"Why call him out and makes him feel so hurt and left out after going?
Maybe they don't know things will work out this way (I assumed) but why would A said she won't mind if he was there in the first place?"
After that day, G and his gf call them out again and again trying to solve that problem but things still turn out to be the same way. They told K to give in to A because she's a girl so just let her be(who's the one being hurt? Not you leh of cos you let her be lah!) and K wouls always apologize to her for making her feels so uneasy and K will always be the one sending her home whenever they went out even though they are not staying in the same area. One is staying in Toa Payoh and the other one is in Yishun.
"Why would you apologize when it's not your fault? If I were you, I'll throw her there and go home alone loh. Why bother to send her if she hates you so much?"
Another incident is that, a few weeks back there is a BBQ party and A would be buying all those foods and stuff. So K just wanna help out(as a friend) by asking her that whether anything that he can buy or sponsor but she just scold him like hell (as if he has any bad intention or wants any benefits from her). He was just trying to help out and she take it as granted ( 好心当狗吠).
You can say that K still have feelings towards and yes but he doesn't expect her to accept him or whatsoever. He really treat her truly as a friend now and yet she treat him like an enemy. I told him to ignore her and gave her back the same face or say something like "you think I want to see you?" or whatever mean stuff whenever they meet up but he says she will cry and his friend(G and all) would says it's his fault making her cry. They will say the same thing like "she's a girl don't treat her in this way".
"Why can she treat you in this way and you can't treat her the same way?"
Wah liao eh.. Not only girls are weak, guys are also weak sometimes .... Guys are humans and have feelings too don't just because she is a girl and let her "F" her attitude like this... Can you please be more understanding.
If any of you has a similar situation, don't let the she/he fool you around.
She/he won't appreciate your kindness anyway. Why not be mean?
We are having salmon for dinner today!! I told my maid that I wanna eat it raw but other than my sister and I nobody else dare to eat it raw. So she decided to cook some of it and slice some out to eat it raw.
She was not very sure how to cook it so I check on the Internet and decided to pan fried it.
How to pan fried salmon??
1. Slice of the skin if there is any. (my maid didn't slice it off)
2. Marinate the salmon with some salt and pepper.
3. Spread some butter on pan.
4. Put in your salmon.
5. Pan fried it till it became brownish. (remember to flip it or else it will burn)
You can take a look at the video below but it's only half of it because my camera's battery is FLAT!!! so sad...
This is the completed salmon
(so ugly loh my maid put the fishcakes around it and it's taken on handphone)
(low quality shot)
This is the raw ones
(look nicer then the cooked one right?)
I read some article online saying that eating uncooked salmon is a risk but who cares? I just love eating it raw and not being sure that does this salmon can be eaten raw or not. Anyway I ate it and nothing happens. If there is something, I'll inform you.
GUCCI Rush 2 & GIVENCHY Hot CoutureEDT (EAU DE TOILETTE/VAPORISATEUR NATURE SPRAY)
Rush 2 For Women by GUCCI(75ml)
I think Rush 2 is very unique because I never seen any fragrance look like this. Does the photo above gave you the impression that the fragrant is in a box?
No it isn't, the fragrant itself look like this and it's made of plastic. Very light in weight, has a very pleasant, sweet, sexy and seductive fragrance.
I've read some reviews about this fragrant, lots of bad comments and some good ones too. Lots of people says it's too seductive and it's smells like "whore". It's suitable for night out.
It takes a bit of confidence to wear it. Guys said it's nice but to girls, they said it's too "cheap".
After all...... I like this fragrant =P. You dare to give it a try??
HOT Couture for Women by GIVENCHY(50ml)
Hot couture EDT it's fragrance is quite strong. Hot Couture is a creation that aims to complement the woman's body, combining sensuality and glamour with refinement and elegance. Not much to say about this actually.
To tell you honestly, I don't really like the fragrance of Hot Couture. It smells too mature for me.
Maybe it suits my mum.

Coach Boxes
My mum brought back 2 coach's boxes when she came home today. We thought she bought something and when we open up the box, it's empty. It's my favorites colour, pink and purple!!!! Nice right the box??? Now I can put my stuffs in it. The purple one is quite big leh. Too big and yet too small actually. Don't know what things can I put in. It's too big for small stuffs and too small for big stuff. Haiz .. The pink one better lah... hahaxx
Creating my phone's theme this whole evening and it takes quite a long time for me to complete it. It's a picture of my cousin, Xiao Tong. I did this theme again and again, keep on editing those mistakes. Lot's of defects and mistakes after downloading it but it's worthy because...
I HAVE A PINK THEME NOW, I'm so happy. Can't find a nice pink theme before this so I just decided to make myself one. hehexx
My phone's theme
This is the original photo
______________________________________________
After making that theme I accompany Ben to have his dinner at the coffee shop near our house.
We ordered 4 cans of ice lemon tea in total.
After that we realise that on the can has a luck draw print which had a chance to win up to $50,000. The 2nd prize is $50 and 3rd prize is $0.50.
So Ben suggest that we should bought more like the whole table of Ice Lemon Tea and we'll have higher chance to win the prize.
"What if we bought $50 of Lemon tea and won a $0.50?" What a lame suggestion... and who will finish all those cans? Some more we bought 4 cans and only 2 cans have the lucky draw, what if we bought 50 cans and only 20 have the lucky draw?
Hai ya!!! It's only a joke lah.... Who will be that stupid to buy so many cans just to try their luck?
