phew.... i was so knacked yesterday.. had 3 ballet classes back to back... advanced level if u are askin... hahahaha seriously.. it was no kidding... by the time i got halfway of the 3rd one.. i almost collapsed... and.. i was dancing through pain in my lower back and left knee... they got worse by the time it was 3rd class... the pain in the back spread over a bigger surface area... had to do a cool down to stretch after class... my left knee, not the operated one (had an ACL reconstruction on my right) was clicking like mad... like one of those clicker where ppl use for counting flow of crowd... basically my left half of the body was quite retarded in the 2nd and final ballet class.... however... despite the imbalance in my body... surprisingly, i did triple pirouttes from 5th, finising in an open position ( I was surprised and impressed, heehee) then on another occassion, i did 4 pirouettes... hahahahaha... of cos i was thrilled... they dun happen every lessons, mind u... hmmf.. then i start to wonder... should i just work through pain the next time, for, it seems to make training more efficient.. OF COS NOT!!!! HEALTH AND SAFETY.... is what i SHOULD/WOULD say when i become a teacher.. but.. hahahah i will never do it to myself though... hahahaha like most would say: CONTRADICTION IS THE MOTHER OF ALL F@#KERS! hahaha...
anyway.. then later in the evening, went to watch london studio centre at the cochrane theatre. hmmmf... NO COMMENTS.... they could have been better if they stick to wat they are best at...
then went to asda... came to an aisle of HEINZ... i couldnt resist t
akin these pics...
havent seen so many HEINZ before in one go... dun u think they look like an ARMY of HEINZ.... hahahhahahahahaha my housemates thought i was weird... she said,"... gosh.. these are just some simple trival matters... and u get so excited over.. hahahah"
well... i am just a typical tourist... every moment is a KODAK moment *wink wink*
GOSH!!!... PHEW!!!! ARHHHH!!!!
finally.. finished most of my dissertation (just the first draft), i am just left with introduction and conclusion for the weekend to work on...
dedicated the whole day to my dissertation... heehee.. oh well.. i did rest a little, an hour of foster's in the afternoon seems harmless... heehee..
i realise that my energy seemed to be absorbed by the atmosphere around me... i feel so drained...
the other day, my housemates, lucie and claire were saying, that all of us are having so much school work to do... however, both of them would have their boyfriend over either every night or at least 5 times a week. (which sometimes do annoy me.. cos.. they are not paying for the rent and bills, but they are just living off us students!!!!) lucie said.. "as much as i know, i have so much work to do, but the thought of refusing charlie (her bf) from coming over is just too hard... also, even when he is here, its difficult to do work, all i wanted is to snuggle up and cuddle and stuff..." claire agreed. the latter find it difficult to do her work when her man is around. then i thought about what they said, and reflected onto myself.... i shared, " well, when my bf was around, he strongly insisted that i get my work done. and since my work area was downstairs in the living room, i wasn't allow to be in the bedroom till i managed to get some work done." lucie's and claire's reaction were envying that my bf wasnt a distraction and saying, " that's really good." i thought for a bit and agreed in a way... for, i am one of those people that occassionally need a little "AHEM AHEM" push... but sometimes... once in a while i do wish for a cuddle....badly... :(
nonetheless, its still good that he is strict and supportive with me... and i miss him ever so dearly...
sometimes seeing my friends with their other halves, i feel a bitter pain in myself... not so much of jealousy.. but more of envy... and sadness... gosh... its so difficult... but i have to be strong... hmmmf.... not easy man...
anyway.. i got to catch some sleep.... teaching tomorrow. very long day tomorrow... hmmmf...
nighty nite...
i was jus lookin at my friendster site... checkin out some of the pictures of my frens...
saw boey's and shan's pic... realised that i actually do miss them more than i thought i am... then... suddenly a phrase pop up in my mind: MIFFY MIFFY LAU SHU... heehee (shan will know tis.. heehee) then i look at those fun filled moment pics tat we took when they were here in london and when i was in eindhoven...
gosh.. if i hadnt had scruffle through the sale bins in H&M in early jan, i wouldn't had bump into shan and boey... and our frenship would not have up a level... well it did for me... it was always a treat when either one of them come to london... they are like my stress-relief, people that are very dear and made me laugh... damn... i miss them loads now... 
anyway.. tis little post today is dedicated to those little 2 lurvebirds...
thanks to boey... my vocabulary of E ZOM ZOM, MY SALSA, and TER TER TERMMMM...and with shan there's MIFFY MIFFY LAU SHU MIFFY MIFFY LAU SHU MIFFY MIFFY LAU SHU... 
its so typical of me...
my fren left a whole chunk of dried foodstuff for me before she went back to spore for good. one of the goodies tat she left me was a bar of kinder bueno. yums... my fren left in october 2005...
today.. i was looking for something to snack... and then i remembered that bar of kinder bueno beneath all the food stuff i have...
i opened it, there is 2 bars of chocolates in there. i bit 1/2 of one of the bar, the texture was not crunchy or crispy, it was in fact a little inflated. i thought perhaps it just needed to be in the fridge to be nice and cold.
hence i left it in the fridge... few hours later, i returned to have a nice big bite of the 2nd half of the first bar, and to finish off the 2nd bar. at that moment in time, i was chatting to the fren who gave me those foodstuff, with my ex flatmate on MSN. i notice a little whitish bit on the chocolate.. i thought perhaps its just the frosting from having it in the fridge, or just some vapour that settled on the chocolate when it encounters room temperature.
i munch off that half bit, as i was starting on the 2nd bar, i noticed that the crunchiness was still not there.. i didnt care... then i happen to see the expiry date on the packaging...
hahahahhahaha its so typical.. hahahah it expired last month...
but i thought since its a cold country here in uk, during winter time, it will be fine. told it to my ex flatmate... and i told her tat its probably vapour.. she said that it might be mould... i stopped eating it...... but by then, its only 1/2 of the last piece left....
i left it on the table so that i could bin it when i get to the kitchen. however... i forgotten about it... hours later i investigated further the 'mould'. hahahha however, the 'mould' was nowhere to be seen. guess i was right, it was just VAPOUR...
but i think.. i should try to check the expiry day more often....
*pixie*
my room is so messy... my dissertation is just sucking my energy and blood level dry... i feel like a zombie..
HELP!!! i need somebody.... HELP!!!
there is saffy... checkin if the lip balm tat i gave her is still on... bless her... hahahhaha... i told her its one of those invisible lip balm tat the color will begin to appear after a while... she was using her hands to feel the color.. awww...
*saffy starin at my cammie*
had a fun and enjoyable yesterday... i was in need of some therapeutic de-stressing... and saffy was the remedy... no doubts bout it... went over to nat's place (nat is saffy's mummie), played masak masak wif her.. then... once saffy is warmed up.. off we go to covent garden and chinatown... the little one needs her fishballs :) (so do i..)
once we got to the rowdy covent garden, with the many buskers and masked talents trying to earn that extra cash for rent, food, booze, or dope, whichever... saffy was terrified... she saw a fuschia furball giant (as compared to her little frame) standing about 5 meters away from her... she was crying to go home, and didnt want to stay anywhere near tat horrible looking 'monster' well.. he/it did look scary... even for an adult... can u imagine.. a giant fuschia fur man... anyway, we managed to get saffy to hide her eyes beneath her beannie, and we skidded off to Disney store...
once we were at disney store... she was all chirpy and happy again... she got excited by the fairy dresses/costumes... especially the purple outfit (i think it was tinkerbell's costume). nat managed to convince saffy that she will get it for her birthday... phew... then she was amongst the plush toys... hohoho... she is such a dearie... she was trying to carry plush toy, dopey (one of the dwarfs) but.. the toy was taller and bigger than her... and she managed to take at least 3 of the managable sized ones in her arms and said,"Look, i can carry them.. I am a strong girl!!!" hohoho.... then she lay these plush toys out in the walkway with cushions around them, and say," they need to sleep" awwwww....
then after that, we went to patisserie valerie (a lil' tribute to auntie val/valerie)... then after tea/lunch, we were off to chinatown to get fishballs... but the little one nap away through the crowds in those cramped smelly supermarkets.
once we got home... she still sleepin.. then when dinner time comes.. she was up and energetic... then as i was about to go home... she was combing my hair, and trying some new hairdos for me... i decided to take a pic of this little sweetie...
can't wait to see her again on tuesday...
*yawn yawn* it has been a long long time since i last penned my whinges and complains...
anyway.. let's forget bout all the unhappie things for once.. and let me share something happie wif u guys... (if anyone is readin.. tat is...)
firstly... i am so relieved... tat i finished my choreography... well.. finished composing it.. and managed to deliver to my dancers... and the next 4 weeks prior to the big nite, is just dedicated to cleaning and fine-tuning... i am so very excited as well.. just in case, anyone is a bit lost...
briefly... i am doing 'choreography' as my elective for my final year in uni, and the dancers that i am workin with are my fellow classmates, who took 'performance' as their electives. i had to choreograph a 8-12 min piece, and collaborate with students on the BA Theatre Design at Central St Martin's. and the performance will be at cochrane theatre at holborn, london. i am so excited.. heehee... it's actually my 3rd piece of creation, but 2nd piece of work for public viewing... a little nervous and worried as well about the critics review as well.. they can be very very very critical... but it's alrite.. bring it on.. the more critical, the better..
so.. anyway.. today, i met up with Anna, the designer that i am workin with. she is brilliant.. i enjoyed workin with her.. i feel a harmonious connection with her.. no conflicts.. (yet???) well, we sort of sorted our costumes, lightings, backdrop, etc the next step is gonna be the MAKING of the props, etc...
well.. since i am in such a 'cashmere' mood... i gonna talk a bit more about my work.. hahahahaha... its really a silly idea when i first mention to anyone.. so.. i am not surprise if you think its an awful idea...
my piece is: CHOCOLATISM, briefly, its bout the psychological effects chocolate has on dancers, and how such effects are expressed through dance movement... ya.. dun sound too exciting huh... well.. basically, its just about the struggle and constraint (ballet) dancers usually experienced with this sinful indulgent... and upon consuming it... the effects such as joy, and pain, etc... well.. i'm not gonna say much..
then.. today i came across a pic from the zouk flea market website... it was a fren tat i knew since i was 13... and when i saw her pic, i felt like.. gosh... i havent stay in touch with her for ages.. not sure if she is keen on stayin in contact with me... but personally, i do wish we could still stay in contact... well, if she is readin tis now.. i would really appreciate if she could drop me an email, or a message.. it would just make my day :)
alrighty... gonna hit the sheets now.. its almost 2am now... 9am psychology lecture tomoro... :( i probably struggle stayin awake.. (just like the last few lessons... in fact, every lessons )
nite nite to all happie bunnies out there who are in happie mode today :)
*pixie*
