OMG!
Tomorrow's my first paper!!!!
And I just took a half an hour nap~~~and to think I woke up at 1pm todae~~~
SHIT!
Jurisdiction!
Applicable Law!
Limitations of Liabilities!
Cargo Owner!
Shipper~~~~
ARGHH!
And yesterday night was meant to be productive~~~
I was supposed to go down to Missy's room to edit my IT term paper, but well, at least, I did for the first 2 questions~~~
And, we started chatting, dunno about what too....
And ME, AKU, SAYA,我! suggested playing daidee~~
And we ended up playing till 4am!!! All the way from 2am...wow wow!!!
And the best thing, we didnt even feel guilty~~~at least not me! hehehe....
Alright, shall quote Missy~~~
Hope I can think like a lawyer tomorrow~~~
*Below is what the lecturer posted on Blackboard*Thank you for your contributions to this course. If there are any problems with the case - the National Gallery - please contact me.
As mentioned in class due to irregularities with the multiple choice exam, everybody will pass this exam this fall.
Also there was an error on the Internet regarding the correct answers. The question 12 has "a" as the correct answer and not "c". That has now been corrected at the net.
Thank you for your feedback regarding the question regarding Mintzberg 5 and how to consider the typology of a hospital. Generally a hospital will be considered a professional bureaucracy. However as mentioned in the book if it is a big multispecialty hospital it could be considered to be divisionalized. Generally a divisionalized form consists of different divisions. Usually in the western world each of these divisions are independent companies in a legal sense and each is serving a distinct market and supports its own functional units.
Since the question is using the generic word - hospital - the right answer would be a professional bureaucracy, but since the book has as mentioned by you a reference to the divisionalized form, I would also consider that to be an acceptable answer although it is not entirely correct.
Carl So many problems, how to be considered an exam????????
Shit, someone's catching up with me...
At her 101th post already~~~
I must run faster!!!!
Anyway, it felt so good to be back in our own pantry...
It feels like home~~~
Knowing where everything's placed and kept(except for the old man).
Not having to walk over to take stuffs that we forgot to take...
It just feels good!
Yay!!!
Our stove is working again!!!!
But the sad thing is....
We dont get a new stove....
Arghh...
Well, but it beats having no stove at all....
Hahaha....
And, I dont like the taste of the mineral water that I bought yesterday!!!!
To avoid food poisoning, Missy, me and Kevin each bought a bottle of Bare Vann.
Dunno what does Bare means,hmmm, maybe Pure?
Vann means water in Norwegian...
See, we are getting good at Norwegian....
Missy and I were saying that we can proudly exclaim to people that we've had overseas education.
And as Singaporeans, we should try to mix some Norwegian and English together...
So when we go to NTUC, we will say, "Can we have a pose?"
Nono, not taking photo..."Pose" means plastic bag....
Haha....
Damn funny....
And we were listing out the words that we know in Norwegian...
And most of the words we know turned out to be names of vegetables and fruits...
Haha, coz we've been doing too much grocery shopping!!!
But I will miss going to REMA 1000 and discovering the cheap stuffs...
Going to the Asian market and discovering all the chinese food...
Going to the LIDL and finding all the cheap frozen food...
I will miss the 4months I've spent in Oslo....
Haiz...
But I wanna go home too!!!!!!!
Counting down to the day I go to flyplass....
Haha...
FYI, flyplass is the airport~~
See!
I am using Norwegian, even in my blog!
I am half a Norwegian! Norge!
Nono, dont worry about it, it's not me!
It's the water supply in my toilet....
I had to spend a whole 20minutes to bathe...that's like double my usual time~~~
The water pressure is sssssssooooooooooo lowwwww...OMG!
I appreciate Singapore's water supply sooooo much!!!
First, we never have any instances of NO water running out of the tap at all....
And in the 4months I am here, it happened 3 times already!!!!!!!!!!
And today, the water contracted chicken pox....
It has black spots, on top of that, it got mixed with some milo powder~~~
So it came out brownish~~~
EEEKS!
Lucky I dont have to pay for my water bills, though it's already been included in the rent...but well, human beings are delusive...
I am not paying for my water bills...hehe
Oh, and Desiree is giving me more wrinkles!
I am reading her blog now, and it makes me wanna laugh....and I did...
But i just put my masque!!!
Wrinkle wrinkles, go away!!!!
Bleahz~
A-hem....
This is my hundredth post!!!
Hurray!!!!
OKie, back to what I wanna blog....
Non-verbal language tells alot of stuffs, dont they?
They make people happy, they make people sad....
But, we feel differently because we have different interpretations of the actions.
What if you interpretated it wrongly?
What if the other person is irritated coz you interpretated it wrongly?
What if that irritation caused people to not be friends anymore?
Actions can be touching, but yet somehow, they need words to make it more beautiful~~~
Arghh...what's my point anyway?
Haha..
Just be aware of all the non-verbal language around you, anyway~~~
Sometimes, it doesnt kill to not know everything~~~
When people do not want to tell you, please get that hint and dont ask anymore le....
When you are meant to know, you will know it no matter what~~~
Bugging doesnt help.
At least, it doesnt work on me~~~
So stop asking me soooooo many qns!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well, it seems that we've spoilt a few stuffs since we came here.....
And the saddest thing happened today!!!!
Our stove had passed on~~~~
Sobsobs~~~
At least, we were by its side when it passed on....
That's one consolation, I think....
Anw, here are some pictures of the stove that has served us from the day we came back from our trip~~~~
All the fish and chips, chicken cutlet, soups, vegetables to instant noodles and frozen pizzas....
All done by this loyal friend of ours~~~
May it RIP.
And another thing~~~
Our tumble dryer, which should be called a Wascator...
I checked online for this term, but is seems that they dont have this product at all....
Anw, I think we have overworked this fella too....
Now it's spoilt...
And I gotta dry my clothes the conventional way....arghhh...no wonder my wrist still hurts occasionally....
Anyway, thanks to these 2 handsome fellas that we lived in such luxury the past few months....
Hungry Hungry Hippo, I go to Ipoh!
I miss my Lamerz days!!!
The days when you guys camp at my house to entertain Mdm Koh~~~
The days we spent at MAC and getting free food from the manager who cleans the floor~~~

Haha...and stop laughing at me when we webcam again!!!

I love 2 of you more than ever~~~
Without you, I will never be what I am now.
And I am really really happy that I got Elmo this year.
At least he can keep you all company without me.
I miss all the times that we spent together.
I know the percentage of you guys reading this is less than 10%, but I still wanna post it!
I miss you!!!!!!!!
And I cant wait to see you in December!!!
And I cant wait to see how well Elmo is taken care of~~~~
I love my boy too!!!!
Above are the missing pieces in my life right at this moment!
The people whom I have known better after coming here.
The people whom I have understand better after coming here.
You all make my life complete in Bjerke!
The authentic warmth from the Lion City! The Fine City!
Okay, it was meant to be a post for me to say that I am hungry, but I ended up with such a long entry~~~haha...
Woooosh, I am supposed to be typing my IT term paper now, but I ended up at this page....
Coz..someone's been secretly stealing my quotes~~~hahaha....
Anw, I wanted to write this entry since Monday...haha...after my long talk with X in her room.
Shall not disclose her, coz this is meant to be for her. It may be too late, but I still hope it gets across....hehe
I believe humans are born a certain way.
No matter how society has shaped you, deep down, you are just human.
It's only fair that you spare some thoughts for yourself.
I know it is difficult, coz you are worried that you might hurt others.
I totally understand.
But sometimes, you just have to do it, coz you will really be happier doing it.
BECAUSE THAT'S THE THING YOU WANNA DO.
Trust me, spare a thought for yourself sometimes. You will realize that you will feel more relaxed. Dont weigh yourself down by so many thoughts. Relax and live life the way it should be lived!
Right, this was meant to be posted even earlier....but my net was down the other time, so gotta kp pushing it off till I do not wanna post it.
But since,I am getting all emotional now, I think I should just post it.
There was this incident a few weeks ago that got me started thinking about reflection of our own actions.
I realized when I started thinking so much about these stuffs.
Being all philosophical.
It was Mdm Chan, my secondary school's History teacher.
She said this sentence that was so enlightening.
It was like a struck of light, and POOF!
I am enlightened!
"When you comment on your friend's actions, you have actually done it too, coz only by doing it yourself will you realize that your friend is doing it."
I dunno if I got the message through.
Simply, it means that when you say your friend did something, you must have done it before too. Otherwise, how would you know that she is doing it too?
Doesnt this just apply to life?
Now, I dunno how to end this post....
Should I just end it?
Hahaha....
I shall end it with~~~
ELMO'S TURNING 1 ON THE 10TH DECEMBER!!!!
I am having mixed feelings....
HOW HOW HOW???
I miss this place, yet I am excited about going home~~~
I am sure alot of people feels this way too....
How can we not have feeling for the place that we've called HOME for 5months.
All the trouble we went thru to get our rooms.
All the trouble we went thru to 'decorate' our rooms.
All the shock we got from our virgin visit to the supermarket.
Arghh, and the list just goes on~~
In the beginning, we were still saying we have a whole 4 months to take pictures of this place, but now, it feels like it's never enough~
You just have to take pictures of everything...the bus, the classroom, the scenery, the supermarkets and most importantly, the hostel, Bjerke, where most of my happy memories are...
No wonder Norway is voted the best country to live in for the 6th consecutive year....
The lifestyle just sets into you and you just fit into it, without you realizing it~~
Okie,enough about this~~~
I shall get ready to go to school first and see what that lecturer says about the screwed up exam last week~~~~
It is getting so dark and gloomy here that you have to turn on the lights even in the day.
Otherwise it will be too dark to study.
And I've changed the position of my study table so that I will not keep looking out of the window when I study.
Yawns~~~
Everyday is study, study and more study!!!
But what do we get in the end?
AN OPEN BOOK EXAM!
So screwed up!
I had this MCQ test yesterday.
And during the lecture before the exam, the lecturer was still saying that it wil be a closed book exam. So he gave lotsa tips to help us pass the exam.
To think me and Desiree were so busy looking for answers to the tips he gave.
And when we were just about the start the exam, the invigilator announced that 'All aids allowed', which simply means, you can refer to anything!
OMG!
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO screwed up!
Fortunately, I photostated the textbook. Phew!
And and and...
I had my first fastfood MEAL in Norway yesterday!!!
Yummy!!! It tastes so great!
But I still miss my Hainanese Chicken Rice more!!!!
*drools*
You are constantly hoping that your good fellowship and attitude and your 'love for your fellow man (or women)' will give you peace of mind.
You need people - people around you to care for you and to show you that they care.
It is this hope that keeps you going, the hope that makes you the type of person that indeed you are.
Your own need for approval seemingly makes you always ready to help others and in exchange you seek love, warmth and understanding.
You will always listen to others and you are open to new ideas which hopefully will prove fruitful and interesting.
You are working extremely hard - perhaps even above and beyond the call of duty.
You are preparing for the future and therefore trying to build a firm trouble-free foundation upon which you may base all of your dreams and aspirations.It is hard for you to accept that your needs and desires are misunderstood by almost everyone within your sphere of influence and there is no one to rely on.
Your pent-up emotions and inherent egocentricity make you quick to take offence, but as matters stand you realise that you'll have to make the best of things as they are.You are being unduly influenced by the situation that is all around you.
You do not like the feeling of loneliness and whatever it is that seems to separate you from others.
You know that life can be wonderful and you are anxious to experience life in all its aspects, to live it to the full. You therefore resent any restriction or limitations that are being imposed on you and you insist on going it alone.You are anxious about all the limitations to which you are subjected to at this time.
You feel that you are not valued for what or who you are. You need OUT. So why procrastinate any longer - MOVE!
Hmm....i think this is pretty accurate!!!
Just received a call from my mum in the morning. And she told me a piece of shocking news.
One of Daddy's partner's wife just passed away last night, due to cancer....
OMG. That woke me up, despite the fact that it was 648am.
Although she may not be very close to me, but somehow, I just feel sad. Perhaps coz they were so far yet so near.
Not cusrsing my parents or what, but sooner or later, this is going to happen to me.
How am I going to deal with it?
Or, what are my parents going to do if something like that happens to me?
I really dunno. But this just came as a shock.
So,just treasure life before it slips away quietly.
Woo...switched to the Blogger Beta, but still dunno got any difference not...
Anw, it seems easier to start a new post...
I realized that I havent been posting pictures up...so here are some pictures of my trip to the Akershus(The Oslo Fortress) last Saturday, when I am supposed to be revising for the exams. Likewise, I should be revising for my test on FRIDAY! And here I am happily posting pictures....haha...heck~~~
On the way to the Akershus, we saw this rock with a big hole and some kid was taking a photo with it.. And Jax suggested that we should take a photo...and there! Both of us tried to squeeze inside that small hole...Arghh...uncomfortable~~~
Khairul trying to act busy~~~
This picture was meant to capture the bridge that we're on, but somehow....it doesnt look like one. And notice the guard in the centre of the picture! We took this 'formation' so we could see him in the picture~~~heee
Outside the armed forces museum...Missy and I couldnt find a way that we can climb onto the tank, so we decided to 规规矩矩 stand by the side of the tank to take a photo...But I still wanted to be special....Notice that I am hanging? Haha~
OOOOOPSSSS...I was trying to see if that guy wore an underwear....haha...But all I saw was his bloody legs...
They used really convincing models in the museum...I lifted one of the blankets and there was 2 'dead bodies'. Missy noticed that they were closing their eyes....so much effort!
ATTENTION!!! We stood there for 5 whole minutes trying to see the lowering of the flag..Who knows, they were just standing there, dunno what they wanted too do also...so we just walked off in the end. Oh, FYI, that's the Norwegian flag.
See, it's not even 6pm yet and it's already so dark....Lazy sun, rises at about 740 and sets at about 345pm....haiz...
Days are getting short~~~ I miss the sun....
5pm feels like 8pm...damn sian~~~
But I have about a month to going back!!!!
Hurray!
It's snowing damn heavy!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And for very long le, since morning!!!!!
The scenery is so distracting~~~
I cant concentrate!!!
When I drew the curtains this morning...
Snow greeted me!
Everywhere is turning white again.
Haiz, I am so lazy to post photos these days~~~~
Anw, went to the fortress last Saturday and took little photos, coz it was too cold to take any...haha
And we spent most of our time in the 2 museums...haha...amazing!
Whoo....I see big snowflakes!
This looks like snow!!!!!!!!!!
I think it will be snowing for the next few days...that's what I found on the website though....but dunno true or not...hmm
Finally, may minmin and ah gai have a fun and safe trip in Paris!
I will miss going down to your room to crap!
Oh Oh...I sing for you when you come back, k!!!!
HAHAHAHAHA
I decided to create another post, coz I think that whatever I write here should not be mixed up with the emotions I feel in the previous post.
Many things happened this week.
And, I can only say....
It's really difficult for people from different backgrounds to live together.
I do not mean to offend anyone with the following paragraphs.
When we know that we are somewhat in the wrong, I believe we all try to be defensive. This is not wrong, this is human nature. But, I hope that when we've cooled down, we can sit back and reflect on what the other person says and try not to do it again.
Nothing in this world is perfect, but we can always make things a little better.
Birds may lose their way when it is cloudy coz they cannot see clearly, but when the skies are clear again, they will find their way back to their flock.
Hopefully this helps you, if you are in need of it.
If you sentence the person to death even before the person gets a chance to explain himself, you are also depriving yourself of the chance to see things clearly. Why take away that chance? Perhaps it will be better for you too.
Clear skies are usually more desirable than cloudy skies.
I always believe in clapping. Coz sound can only be produced when you clap and problems will only arise when 2 parties are at fault.
Both parties are entitled to present their stories to the judge.
In the court, other than the prosecutor and defence lawyer are allowed to take sides, the rest of the people should not judge or take sides, because this is unfair to the defendant.
If this helps...
Sometimes, you disappoint people without you knowing.
You think that they disappoint you, but in fact, you are disappointing them too.
Who goes through life without disappointments?
Like what I saw in my friend's blog....
If you enjoy the rainbow, you have to get past the rain first.
I hope the people who reads this will understand my stand.
I am not trying to change anything, I am just writing this cause I care.
Finally, my ISP is back...
Actually, he's back for 3 days le...just that I am lazy to blog and I have soooo many things to do.
Have to study, coz I have an exam this friday, I have to tag the songs that I got from Ting Ting...She has 14.7gb of songs!!!! That's like 7 times more than me!!!
Anyway, I was damn high that night....hahaha
I think I was singing so loudly in minmin's room that she buay tahan...haha...But I love my new playlist now....all the old songs...
Even Ting Ting is surprised why I know alot of the songs in her playlist...
OHHHHHH
And I am going to Taiwan this year!!!!! 4 days after I go back to Singapore, I will be waving goodbye to it again!!!And rmb to send me off, Missy!!!! And I will be there to fetch you, if I can!!! Haha!! *smiles cheekily to some pple*
One sad thing is that we are using my money for this trip...Saddens....
Sometimes, ignorance is really bliss.
I wish I can help to clear up this mess, yet I cant...Haiz...
Sometimes, things are best left unsaid.
Not trying to keep you out of things, but we are doing you a favour, coz it might just get more complicated if it is let out of the bag.
You may think this is what you think it is, but it is not.
I dont feel good.
It doesnt feel good to be helpless.
arghh, change so many times le, but still cant get that picture size right, so i guess, you guys have to strain your eyes and try to see the pictures then~~~hehe
Let the pictures speak for themselves....
Yummy!!!!
And to muimui, I cant wait to bring BATMAN and ELMO to ECP too.....
And the latest Mr Elmo looks....
And the halloween party looks fun!!!! I wan a welcome party when I go back, can????
Hehe, I bu yao lian....ask for party....woops~~~~
Haiz...damn sian~~~~EXAMS~~~~~
Woohoo....
Here are some pictures of the snowy scenery from my room and the pantry.....
Dunno what else to blog about le....coz nothing much happened...
Just that I think I will fall to my death some day, if I am not carefeul, coz I almost fell....
Cant believe it...walking also needs your full concentration these days....coz you nvr know when you will fall.....hahaha
When will the ice melt away, so that I can walk at ease again?
When will the ice melt away, so that I can run to the bus stop again?
When will the ice melt away, so I do not have to wet my soles again?
Haiz....snow is nice, but so many 'side effects'.....
SNOW OR NOT SNOW?
Well, it looks pretty much like ice~~~
So now, I would take it as snow mixed with rain, coz it was raining last night too~~~
For the time being, I will stick to snow, coz it's much simpler...hehe
And, we went to Hard Rock Cafe for dinner last night!!!!
Yippee!
It was our first dinner out and it was fantastic!!!!
See, I helped Liping to celebrate her bdae, here!
All the way in Oslo!
I'm such a gd friend!
Anw, it was dark by the time we finished our dinner, but it was ONLY 5PM!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG!
When we alighted from the bus, we saw the carpark covered with snow. Very pretty!!!! Hehe, and it was still snowing~~~
So we played in the snow for about 10mins and started snapping and snapping, until we decided that the cold was too much for us to take.
Then Missy popped up a qns.
"Should we go dress up and come down again?"
Hahaha....in a way, we can test all our winter gear too...haha.
And Daddy's jacket proved to be good!!!
It was very fun!
Missy and Jaya attacked me while I was busy wearing my beanie and zipping up my jacket....
Naughty kids!!!!!
Anw, I walked up to Minmin's window and she IGNORED me!!!!!!!!!
I was out there, standing in cold and there she was, in the room...haiz...
Mei liang xin!
Haha, and then I went to her room, wanted to 'confront' her, but she ended up feeding me dinner and then maigai came down with a big pot of pepper porridge!!! TOO MUCH PEPPER!
After all the food, I went back to my room to play bridge with my usual kakis...hehe
And after Kevin went to the gym, 3 of us stayed and whew~~~
We came up with a new game called JAY! But, you pronounce it as YAY. Coz it's in Norwegian. Is their language Norge or what? Hmm...
Anw, they pronounce J as Y, so it's YAY.
And we had wine!!!
Haha....
Okie, dont have pictures in my comp yet, coz I am back to primitive times...
NO INTERNET!!!!!
Arghh....the network is down and my ISP went back to Egypt...Alamak....
So not much updates for now, coz I wanna listen in class!!!
Woops...but I am not!!!
Hahaha...
Finally, HAPPY BELATED BDAE, JEANIE TEO ________
hahaha....called you, but you always never pick up de leh....haiz....saddens...
And, to Miss Lim, HAPPY HALLOWEEN! AND OF COZ, HAPPY BELATED 21ST BIRTHDAY!!!!! And I am honoured to spend the first half of your birthday with you...claiming it back from you,okay...hahaha
Wishing the birthday girls the best of health and may they stay pretty always!
