Big Day (in Brief)

My neighbour's dog Bluey waits in anticipation...


Even he knows that today is someone's big day.

The quintessential champagne popping.

Messily busy for 18 hours, it finally all over.
The result of entertaining everyone: Captured in action ravaging through unconsumed dinner.

A Boh Liao Entry

The lack of updates usually means that I'm either plain lazy or too busy. Unfortunately, it has to be the latter. So in the midst of irritating projects, web comics are usually my favourite way to wind down.

My perennial favourite: Perry Bible Fellowship Comics
This really cracked me up. I would never see bee in the same light ever again. Literally.

This was the exact same reply when my dad asked me what I wanna do when I graduate.
And of course, my regular dose of puns
Talk about fishy monarchy...
Only recently, have I resumed back my more-frequent-than-occasional cup of Mochacinno. And surprising, McCafe makes rather good coffee complete with latte art
Nonetheless, beneath the intricate artwork is malicious caffeine, all waiting to take over my soul.
On a totally different note, there was this morning I decided to have a crappy junk food breakfast. Dumping two Ferrero Rochers and some Taiwanese snack on my plate, something suddenly occurred to me before I ate them.

What is wrong with me? Tsk tsk...

Busy Rant

I never knew I could be this busy... But I keep getting proved wrong.

To-Do List
1. Do something for my HR2002 project, to convince my group members that I have been useful. Even though my next group meeting is less than 12 hours time.
2. Decide whether I want to do an overseas Vacation Internship Programme (VIP) even if it has to be in China
3. Apply what I learnt for the resume writing seminar and have one ready so I can self-initiate local VIP if neccessary.
4. Interview Mark so I can gather more information for my Biomaterials Engineering project, by Friday.
5. Coerce the Corporate Relations Officer of NUS to grant me an interview for the condemned-and-long-overdue article on NUS admission advertisement, ASAP!
6. Get practicing for my Financial Accounting Test this Friday.
7. Repair my "modified" laptop.
8. Redeem my $100.00 Fat Face Voucher which will expire this month end.
9. Meet up with a Yahoo Auction seller to sell a bottle of Chivas Regal this Sunday.
10. Get started on my Political Science essay.
11. Begin on my Financial Accounting project, and start consulting professional advice from accountants.
12. Catch up on my HR2002 readings.
