watched Fantastic 4 on Fri nite after work.
pretty funny show with puny lines.
Jessica Alba is HOT!!!
yes, especially in her F4 uniform.
go watch it! totally comical!
unfortunately there was fiery tension before, during and after the movie.
*yawn*

Sat nite met up with my most beloved Mensa Clique.
once again, let me clarify that thisw Mensa is not the high IQ agency.
it's an AJC Orientation 1 group. our group =)
had Shanghainese dinner at Marine Sq. hope Mich enjoyed her brithday surprise!
hey babe, u never take photo of your birthday present in its little maroon box!
it was lovely to meet up with the gang after so long. so much to catch up abt n crap abt =p
all of you make miserably mundane life better =) thank you for everything! i love you!
hmmm... i don't have pictures of Mich and the birthday cake though.. =(

after which went down to Velvet with Ryan, Liz, Josh, Niel and Ben.
the music was superb, the crowd was beautiful and star-studded, the drinks were potent.
unfortunately we had to leave early at 2.30am. such a spoiler.... bah
i have this mantra: study hard, play harder.
thus when i club at Velvet assuming that the 3 above fun-forming factors are present,
i will club till 4am aka closure time. whoopee work out session!
Phuture's Nu-Beats were energizers =) woohoo!

i came home at 4am but only managed to sleep at 6am. wtf.
yes, i do hv a serious sleeping problem... damn. time to go on zzz pills...

Sunday wasn't anything too exciting, neither did i receive much rest.
went to Church in the evening, it's Bible Sunday.
then had dinner at Da Paolo's Pizza Bar at Holland Village.
their pizza is superbly satisfying, throw in a portobello mushroom flan and fried calamari rings.
finish off with a tiramisu and coffee. to die for dinner sofas they have.
too bad i didn't bring camera or there'll be so many lovely pictures to show!

then met Ryan and Liz after their Jap dinner+movie date for coffee at StarBucks.
they watched War of The Worlds which received a cock-story feedback,
though the animation was superb.
Liz was dressed in simple white top with a pretty navy blue skirt.
while out dear mad army man (Ryan) was *as usual* in shirt and berms. hahah!
thank God he didn't turn up in basketball jersey and shorts =p
then again, clothes's don't make a man. what matters is the quality of the substance in him.

today's a brand new day of a brand new week.
time to work harder, work faster, write more critically and sleep well at nite.
i am currently suffering from sore worn-out eyes which ache... ouch.

talked to Vincent today. yep, ran into some minor difficulties in my research.
he's busy reading stuff and preparing for his PhD thesis.
i am happy for him. hope he takes good care of his health.
last time i saw him at meeting, he was totally exhausted.
better catch him soon before he leaves in mid-Aug.

Dear Vincent, thank you so much for all your warm encouragement.
i am indeed blessed to have you as my supervising tutor,
although your teaching days with me was only for a semester.
i stil remember you wearing the same old clothes week after week,
that the class thought you had only 5 pieces of clothes in your wardrobe.
we were so mischievious despite our age, alwiz teasing you in class.
and often than not, we complained that your tutorials were boring and dull.
but you never gave up on us, advising us on module content, study methods and exam revisions.
you never failed to bring a glimpse of hope and support when i am at my downest point.
thank you for guiding me as a wonderful role model. i enjoyed working alongside with you.
may God bless you richly.
