the 10 "MUST-BRINGs" to school
Monday, January 16, 2006

I spend most of my time in school because most of my frens are stayin on-campus. So my bag needs to carry certain important things. I can't miss any of the stuff which will be mentioned below. So here they go . . .
***********************************************************************************************
1) A pair of gloves and a beanie
My hands and ears will turn cold within 5mins whenever i step out of the house. This is no joke man... You can't hold anythin when your hands are numb and i can feel the pain when the ears are expose to the cold wind after a while. it's as though they are going to fall off. Investing in a good pair of gloves and beanie is a must. i actually got my glove at $4CAD. And... i've learnt my lesson

2) GUESS down-feather jacket
Oh.. this is my best investment back in Singapore. Bought this from GUESS at $189.90. Thanks Mum! Reali love the design and my housemate's fren actually said that she loves my jacket...heehee.. The jacket is of top quality that i can go without my gloves and beanie with the hood to cover my ears and the side pocket to stuff my hands in. Marvellous...

3) ipod nano
Once again, i'd like to emphasize that i hafta walk 25-30mins to reach campus. So, this is my best entertainment. At times when im listening to Chinese songs, it'll make me feel like im back HOME(excluding the weather). Talking abt imagination... no matter how much i imagine myself to be in a sauna, the cold still exist. Anw, thanks sis Jul and Aunt winnie for the bday gift. I love it.thanks rongy and ShaIKH for the leather casing. The device is still free from scratches...

4) Energy bar: chocolate chip and marshmallow
It's so true that in the cold weather, you'll tend to feel hungry easily. Or rather, you just feel like munching smtg. So i stock up lotsa energy bar in my room and hafta bring at least 1 to school everyday so that i won't spend unnecessary money on snacks. The energy bar is reallly cheap, approx $3cad per box bcos it is "PRODUCT OF CANADA"



5) mini tumbler
HEY huiying, do you find this familiar? This can really keep my drinks warmer for a longer time. It's damn 'shiok' to put ur cold hands ard this to get warmth. A hot milo a day, keeps the cold away... thanks ex-roomie. The design on this tumbler is interesting... it shows how to make a cafe latte... reminds me of my ex-workplace - venezia.. hope their business is getting better at Singapore Arts Museum





6) Camera
I think i'm really addicted to taking pictures. i snap at almost anything and asking ppl to take pictures for me and of me. haha... I didnt realize i actually do this so often until G.D showed a videoclip of the different scenes in Thailand when i asked him for help to take picturess of me. Oooopss!




7) Candies
I don't understand why most of my lessons are 3hours at one go. out of 5modules which i took, 3of them are like that! The good thing is, these modules do not have any tutorials. So... i need to remind myself to replenish whenever i finish. Candies can really help to keep me awake during class.



8) WAT card
This is just like the matric card back in NUS. But this works like a cashcard within the campus. Students can use this card for printing, buying of food and use the different services and facilities offered by the university. If you were to look closer, that pic of me is really bad. one side of the head is actually bigger than the other. So the 'blurred' effect is intended... heehee


9) Cellphone
Friends are limited here. So need to call somebody who's in campus to accompany for the long break.. else i'll be spending hours doing nothin in the school. I really can't make myself to sit in the libary to study... guess i'll never try and never want to do that. Too lonely.. im on exchange... must haf fun almost every minute. haha



10) Lip balm
This was bought in Singapore and a tube of 2inches costs SIN$6.90. But it realli works... no cracks on lips till now.. worth buying...This must be applied every2hrs (if i remember to)... so it's definitely a must-bring to school.

P.S. It's 17th Jan 2006 back in Singapore... So, this is Ying'en's BIG DAY... hitting the double 2 is sooooo scary but i know she'll handle it well. haha.. i bet HAMAYS is having fun.. boohoo.. i wanna join them...boooo

Happy Bday to you, Happy bday to you, happy bday to YING'EN,

Happy bday to you!!!
