Had creative writing class today from 3-6pm.
Quite interesting lah... can get to write stories but with my eng, haiz... the stories won't be nice anymore. Toooooooooo many grammar and sentence structuring mistakes.

Anyway, on the way back, rode mother's car home from her office there.
She checked our mailbox and found a package!!!
It's the doll hair i ordered!!! YAY!!!
I can get on with my 2nd custom!!!

I took out the scalp just now.
Here'a a pic.


Looks scary w/o the hair hor? hahaha
The hair in the packet is the new hair i'm going to sew on. There's 4 packets.
It's pure white, but under certain lighting in my house it looks abit yellowish.

Yes that's all today. Have to wake up early for class tmr.
And there's a 3 hr break for me. Sooo damn stupid lor. I'll have it for the whole mth, i dunno wat i'm going to do.

Ok, i've been working hard on my manga today.

I'm at page 6! Yay! haha
4 more pages to go.

Here's a sneak peek:







The 3rd page 1st 2 columns are not done yet, cos i can't decide what and how to do with the shock lines.
Tell me what you think!
But you can't really tell the story out of this pages lah.
Must read the sypnosis i've typed. If you are interested to know, feel free to ask me for the sypnosis. I actually in need of some comments, see if original & interesting or not lor.

Today, xiuling was panicking like hell on msn, asking me for help.
Then later found out her rela with bf is shaky and wants to break off. But got a 3rd party who confessed to her recently. It's not really 2 timing lah...
Haiya she ar... ask me how i can keep my hands off these things easily.
Just dun be bothered lor. haha.
Hiaz anyway it's so mah fan lah.
Told her to break off with the current one.
Aiya ask me these kind of things... i dun really know how to answer lah.

Ok anyway, i think my aunty from HK is going back tmr. Finally those brats are gone. My father is visiting them now. Mama is staying so that she can get used to living in S'pore and then hire a maid to take care of her. She is suspicious of ALL maids lah, so it's difficult. My aunty doubts that she can cope staying alone lah. I think so too cos she's one paranoid old lady.

Wonder who's in my class tmr lor. Scared i'm the only one there... haiz

Screentoning the 3rd page of my manga. I'm damn slow cos i always dily daly... i'm really lazy lah.
The 1st 2 finished liao but still need to make adjustments cos of the photocopies.

Nothing happened lately.
Yesterday went to school to submit everything of the project to nancy's office. Met amanda, jing ting & roseanne on the way there. We complaint that it was a waste of time and $$ to just hand in the pieces of work. It's very stupid lor.

Next week starting new classes: Figure drawing and creative writing. I fear creative writing. My english is damn lousy, i dunno how am i going to cope in that class. Aiya see how it goes lah.
Need to buy stationery for figure drawing.



I dunno if you can see the 2 cats on the cars. Taken this morning.
The ginger cat, a regular wanderer around my block, LOVES to climb onto cars and then dunno how to climb down. hahahaha.
It's been doing that for years. But this pic is so funny. It wants to jump to the other car but scared. The grey one just sits there, watching. xD

CNY!
First, my father's sister and cousins and their kids came to our house. They came from HK and Penang to visit us.
I cannot stand the kids, So noisy!! Especially that fat girl, Ema. My father favours them more than his real children. >.>
Mama's hongbao always consist half the amount of our total hongbao $$ at the end of the day one. haha
Aunty Evon gave me an Unazukin!!!! So cute!!

Went to Kao fu's house (mother's side) on the 1st day.
My godma didn't turn up cos she went to Australia with family. Haiz... 1 family 'missing' very lonely leh. haha.
The children played outside in the garden, dunno play what, play until their clothes all wet from perspiration!!! Like just took a bath lah! Aiyo! xD

Then, went to father's side. The small flat always crowded and stuffed with people i have no idea who they are. Except for a few.
As usual, we stood by the same wall looking very bored lah, cos we are not close to anyone there.
My primary sch. classmate is my cousin but i never talk to her at all one. Same as my bro. haha so funny.
Then must do the ancestrial ceremony, bow 9 times to the alter.

Then back home. Steamboat and hotplate with my father's side.

Then yesterday, went to Vivocity with bro and mother to watch "Protege" and have lunch.
My mother didn't watch though, cos she dun like movies with dark scenes, cannot see clearly.
Protege was very nice, you should go watch. Ate Carl's Jr. for lunch. It's a double upsized version of burger king. The portions of EVERYTHING is HUGE!!!! Fries, burger, drink!!! OMG!! Eat the burger alone already can consider 1 meal already.
Later on, went to lao yu sheng with father's side at some place called "Lai wah restaurant" for dinner. Forgot where was it.

Overall, it's just a normal and boring CNY.
Doing work during CNY, how does this sound? hahaha

Is it just me or is my father getting more out of hand??

Right from the moment i woke up, i had a FOUL MOOD. How should i put it? More like when Honey or Kyouya just wake up that kind.
I'm somewhat like them in that situation. Dun come disturb me in the morning or else...

It's becos i always hear my father's voice and his tv BLASTING into my room, in the morning on holidays. My mother's screaming and quarreling with my father. The washing of the toilet (this one i dun really mind). The numerous SLAMING of my parents door becos of my father's inability to close the door properly.

Then after i woke up, wash up and took breakfast. My father asks his usual ANNOYING question: "Can i use your computer to record?"
ARGh!!! What's with you and recording DVDs??? It's like his 2nd hobby!!!
He asks me EVERY SINGLE DAMN S***ING DAY!!! He never watches them anyway!!!!
PLEASE STOP THE PIRACY!!!! He secretly WITHOUT my permission use my comp, IN THE MIDDLE OF MY SLEEP. AND EVEN RIGHT AFTER I WAKE UP.

Also, my mother complaint this morning that he didn't close the freezer all night and everything just defrosted and melted. This is not the 1st time.
He doesn't do anything right!!
He doesn't close bottle caps.
Keeps wetting the floor cos he NEVER dries his hands cos he dun want his clothes to get dirty and dirties our people stuff.

When he dirties something, he (A) doesn't clean it or (B) cleans it but doesn't do it properly. He's selfish cos it isn't his things and will not admit that it was he who did it.
For eg., my bro's cushion chair had a big spill and i thot it was vomit. Then my maid say it's not, it's campbell soup. We dunno who did it. When my bro came back from camp, he said he didn't dirty his chair.
The immediate suspect is my father. BUT he said he didn't go into his room and all that stuff. No one drinks campbell soup at night/morning except him. Who else? It's him and up to now, he doesn't admit.

Haiya, there's too many in the list already lah. I dunno why my mother married him in the 1st place. If i was here before my birthdate, i would be angrier cos of what happened then.

Never been so pissed off with a person for so long.
But this year, i dunno why but i'm especially getting really annoyed by him.
It's new year's eve lah please! DUn make me even angrier can!

haha sorry for making this post so... erm...
but i need to calm myself down lah...

Changed music again. Now it's Shounen Heart by HOME MADE Kazoku, one of my fav songs.

Actually wanted to blog yesterday but now i forgot wat i want to say. haha
Anyway, must redo my final work in Paint. I did it in colour pencils. haiz.... but anyway i need to change some things. Paint will make the work more uglier lor. Colour pencils are the best. haiz... but what to do?

Found 2 more illustration competition i can join in. One is by Adobe and one is some random one in singapore. Haiz... i more worried abt competitions than my school work. So strange. I very worried abt the deadline cos i procrastinate ALOT.

Haiz see how lah. If cannot make it, then wait for a next one bah. My work is not good anyway.
Now i feel damn stressed lah becos of this. Becos of school work, i can't do competition stuff. Grrrr.

Freaking s***

Never knew that doing screentoning on computer is more tedious & difficult than doing it by hand, though it's free and don't involve ANY $$$$ at all.
Maybe i don't have any experience and that i'm not familiar with photoshop yet.
My bro helped me but still not correct leh...

Both ways have their benefits. By hand is completely eating $$ & time but.... i think it's easier doing so. Computer ar... makes my blood boil lah. Need to install the patterns and must do layers and all that stuff. But it's faster lah.
Haiya, i dun understand what those websites say abt how to use the computer way lah. ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
*breaks a bunch of pencils*

I really want to do on computer, but it seems that they dun have much patterns available and those i need. Haiz...

Oh well, my mother right just now said "Aiya you tmr go buy lor. I give you $$$." Wow, that was generous of her. Can't believe it. I didn't even hint to her, i just said the tones i bought were too light and that i need darker ones. And i realised i bought 1 extra unnecessary one. (=____=)

My bro's enjoying Ouran high sch Host club. VERY GOOD...
I'm re-watching it. I can't get enough of it lah. I can hear my bro laughing damn loudly behind closed doors. xD

You know, my manga deadline is worrying me MORE THAN my school assignment leh. Should i be worried abt this? xD

Oh and i dreamt last night, about a mysterious couple. Forgot abt what lah, but i know their love grew every minute in my dream. So weird... but i know it was quite touching. I can't recall what happened lah. One of the person involve seems to be someone i know, or... maybe not. xD

Gah can't believe i cried when i watched this performance of all performances Ayumi did. I dunno why. It's my fav song though, so much meaning....

omg i'm really going to faint and die of heart attack now.
Why? Read on.

I just attended a seminar on overseas studying in Japan in suntec this morning... Alone. xD
So anyway, found a seat and a woman sat beside me and immediately intro herself lah. I was like "...", but got intro back lah. She say she just want to make new friends and she gave me a paper and ask me to join her own japan interest grp. Like i would lah. I just said i'll consider.

Then the talk is mostly on scholarships to japan lah. Very boring but alot of info and very helpful.
THEN...

I had the shock of my life.
Got one scholarship that i'm interested in and suits me, need to take exams. Jap lang, english and MATHS. It's not ONLY MATHS. It's A'lvl AMATHS standard exam.
I was like HUHHHHHH??!! I almost wanted to faint when i consulted one of the speakers.
So she said the portfolio is not as important as the stupid exams that ISN'T related to my course. HOW CAN LIKE THAT???!!! How can portfolio be NOT IMPORTANT???!!!!
GWARRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!
I won't make it for that scholarship and all of the other scholarships lah!
That is the most DEVASTATING line i've ever heard.
Never been through JC lah pls. And dropped Amaths in sec sch somemore. I'll take years to even borderline pass it.
My future is gone already lah. (T-T)
Now my jap not impt, it's AMATHS!!! Cos she said my jap need not be good to enter.

Now you know why...

Putting that horrible news aside, yesterday did quite alot on my manga. typed the script into the speech bubbles le. Now dunno whether to photocopy or screentone 1st. Haiz...
Anyway, i shall end here sobbing over the news....
I think i need amaths tutoring already...

Yeah man, went to Chinatown AGAIN for my project pics today after church. This time i walked even further and deeper and longer in there. I got what i wanted, i think. After the walkathon, i had some fries and green tea at mac's. I realised not having a snack or lunch with someone is terrible. ><
Oh ya! And i met John at my house bus stop! We were like "EH? How come you're here?!" hahaha so funny. He forgot that i'm in the same class as him lah, haiyo... he got down at the bus stop cos his church is near there. Didn't know that...

Anyway, yesterday was nw's bday dinner at cartel. Oh i finally saw steph lah!! hahaha
nw, fish, ca, xin, uma, carmen, steph and me. 8 of us.
Dinner was quite nice actually. I had carbonara, my new found fav. western meal, other than fish & chips lah.
Only nw, fish and me had main courses while the rest had salad... haha. I didn't salad dish proportions were big. It's like a meal with lots more veges.

Oh ya, in case you are wondering, the drawing for nw is not the original. The orginals are with me. The process of making this actually took lots of photocopying, so there are many copies but only 1 primary one (hope it makes sense). But a lesser version still looks the same lah.

Yes ok, then went to sweet secret to have cake! Ohhh cheescake!!! yumyum.... and as nw said, it's was worth it and cheap! Fish schemed to put a candle on nw's slice of cake. Uma and steph helped. Sang bday song and took pics.
Took neoprints at the arcade later and went home. It was abt 10pm. Wow so late! hahaha...
It was really very fun! C:

Forgot to add that i changed the jukebox corner to another new song. Please listen! hahaha
Sang by Aqua Timez. A new jap band...

Anyway, i'm sick. Headache yesterday and today TERRIBLE running nose. I think sore throat and fever will be next. But i dun want that to happen. Especially when i have a friend's dinner to go.
I dunno why, but i ALWAYS w/o fail, fall sick whenever i made appointments with friends to go out and have fun. So strange lor. Maybe i'm not fated to go out and have fun.

I'm currently running out of ideas for the concepts. I JUST need 5 more ideas!!! ahhhhh!!
