^turtle me^

Today's the 26th of Nov '07. It is now 3.11am. In 14 hours time, I will be sitting for my first paper - ME3261 Computer-Aided Design & Manufacturing.

Now, I am prepared for it but I am afraid I can't write fast enough. Wish me luck in that ya?

Alas, the exam period has officially arrived. Hence, the title. As it is, my posts have gotten rather sparse. Now, I think till I sound the alarm, any readers left should stop reading. Nah... I'm kidding.

After Wednesday, I've got four days to mug for me last paper so it's cool. :)

K's finally back from India. The sun was so hot, he's looking like one of the locals there. Then again, he's always been abit...burnt. :D I got a really pretty scarf from him (no time to take pics & upload) and stolen Crabtree & Evelyn toiletries from his hotel...cool. Penny's a happy girl.

Also, I had my first experience with THE Kamasutra from the land it originated from. It's kinda kinky actually... :P Unfortunately, K didn't get one for me. A good thing too...can't imagine my mom finding it in my room. And what more from K... *heh*

Come 3rd Dec, A VERY SPECIAL DAY!!!, I will be uber busy...what with packing for the trip, rehearsals for a major Networking event on the 6th and immediately rushing home to change and depart to the airport, I only hope I have enough time to spend with my dear parents and K.

Sigh...time time time...where did you go???

Anyway, to all helping me pack for the trip, a major MUACKS goes out to you all...my sis for shopping and help packing, Jess dear for her lovely clothes and shoes and darling Hui for her great collection of bags. :) Love you dearies...

^warning: it's long^

Okay right. I apparently do not blog often enough to warrant visits. *bleh*

I'm a busy woman ya? So busy, I spent the entire weekend sleeping in and only managing 2 pages of my final term paper. *heh*

So what's Penny so busy with? Hmm..updates updates.

First up, school of course. Exams are looming ever nearer. 26th is my first paper and I've obviously not started mugging. Still left with 1 term paper and 1 project (and I'm sitting here blogging) ... but it ain't too bad cause I've got at least 1 week per module so it's cool.

What's taking alot of me time tho is the Middle East trip. Now, to the uninvolved-in-Penny's-life people, I'm going on a major school trip this Dec. TO THE MIDDLE EAST!!!!! *woohoo* To be exact - 23 days in UAE, Saudi, Qatar and Egypt! Hmm...Chirstmas in Egypt should be fun except they don't celebrate Christmas in Dec. bummer...I'm leaving on the 7th till the 30th so any orders, please place now. :D

~w the only Nov baby present @ Arab street dinner~

Then there was the BEP concert which happened thanks to birdie. Thanks bird!! Hope you liked your dim sum dinner treat. :) Click Five started it off with a few numbers that ended up an hour long. They really made me feel old next to all the screaming (young) girls. :( As for the BEP, Fergie's good actually...and hot. Pity the other three couldn't really hold a tune.

Bird forgot about a camera and I obviously do not have one, so we survived on my 2mp camera phone. *haha* At least you can see the stage... :P The 2 smart NUS undergraduates only thought of finding better seats in the last hour so here's the better view we got after a long long time:

~BEP with Where is the Love~


~the really cool inflatable monkey~

In hall, I've been really non-existent. Feeling a little out of place in my block with all the yr 1 girls and yr 4 boys. Where have all the female FYs gone??!! Oh wait, there aren't any. We are a sad batch.... BUT! We successfully pulled off "Talanto" - another FYSP. Congrats congrats...especially to Jack, this year's winner. To the clueless, "Talanto" is a talent competition organised by the final years. 1st prize's a $200 cash prize sponsored by us of course. :)

I did at least manage to shake my booty .. off which I had to blow some dust. Tommy & I choreo-ed the FY dance for "Talanto". Will upload the vid if I can get my hand on it. *wheuweet* Bird got loads of cheers that night. *heh* He was definitely an inspiration for future performances :P Our retro theme with You're the one I want off Grease OST was quite a hit I must say. :D

~our retro theme~

More pictures of "Talanto" on the way...

Other than school, Middle east and hall, teaching's another big part of my life. Thank goodness primary school exams are out of the way. Wednesday phonics classes do not end till later though. I teach Primary 3 and below and every Wednesday, poor Kenny has to face a grumpy me. Dealing with 4x 5-yr-olds is rather draining...but satisfying nontheless. :)

More importantly, last Friday I pre-celebrated Hui's 22nd @ MOS. Hmm...that was quite eventful I must say. The Ennies were Hui's supporting party and poor Harold didn't get to see much of the club. *heh* Shall not embarrase the poor babe any further ... she'll probably hear no end of it for a year. Friday's party was way better. Thanks Harold for all you did for my lady.. :)

Dear Hui, hope you enjoyed yourself. Happy 22nd and may you never end up the way you did that eventful night. :D Love ya darling!

~kisses for the princess~

And last but not least, I finally went for a much-needed hair cut.

~Ta da!!~

Talk about a long update...I'm tired.

^Holiday II^

I seem to have had taken a hiatus from blogging. With 1 quiz, 1 term paper and 4 projects down, I finally have a little more space to breathe and blog. Unfortunately, I am still left with 2 term papers and 1 project. But that ain't stopping me from having fun. :P

In just 5 weeks, I found myself on another beach holiday. Ah...the simple joys in life.

Mind you, I worked mighty hard in the weeks before in order to prepare for five days of absolute R&R. Squeezing meetings, term papers and quiz preparations into a few days took its toll on me. Prior to setting off, I only slept an average of 4hours a night..

BUT! It was all worth it.

Somehow, family holidays never fail to comfort. This was the first holiday in a long time where it was just the 5 of us. No bfs, no gf, just us. It was time to catch up and just hang out. It might have been a good thing it rained so much cos we stayed in and played Scrabble or pickup sticks. :)

Unfortunately, people do not really fly all the way to Krabi to do that. Oh well, I ain't a mermaid so can't do anything about the weather there.

~enjoying my coconut~


The place's quite nice. A lot more developed and decent compared to Pattaya. The hotel we stayed in exceeded all my expectations too. Save for the poor view (of a construction site), it was worth way more than the $57 per night per room.

The most exciting part? Getting mommy into the water. All 3 siblings have never seen our mother so much as touch seawater so it was really sporting of her to go snorkelling!!! I am proud of her. :)

~mommy & papa~


So we had fun, sand and sea though more sun would be good ...

24th - 28th Oct 07
Krabi, Thailand

Another great family adventure...

Now, I just hope Dec can come faster ...
