WHEN THE WORLD IS NOISY AND ALL YOU CAN DO IS
SQUEAK!
or perhaps a better and more truthful title would beWhen Andrea loses her voice!Hah. First of all I got to say this " Andrea I'm not here to make fun of you or anything!!" Someone told me that Andrea had lost her voice and it* cruelly told me to call andrea darling up and record the conversation so that it* can hear what my dearest mom sounds like. Isn't that so horrid? But seriously, it's really sad when you lose your voice. I understand what you're going through gal! Okay, aside the fact that my mommsie is getting rather 'hot' at a swelling 39.5 degrees and nearly frighten the daylight out of me, she has so sadly and pathetically lost her voice too. Amazing. She who speaks at 100km/h can't speak at all now. Geez. BUT all that aside, this post is actually a plea. I'm thinking of setting up a health hamper for Andrea. Why? Cause she has fallen ill at least twice this month with fever, cough, headaches and that sort. It's unbearable for me to see her suffer, so I'm thinking of giving a health hamper to her. The HEALTH HAMPER would have to include:
- A life-long supply of Bird Nest only of the finest quality.

- A ten-year supply of BRANDS CHICKEN ESSNENCE to ensure that her brain replenishes all the nutrients and brain cells that were burnt off during her 'hottest' period.

- Hundred boxes of PANODOL or as Iggy puts it paracetamol pill. They are the same thing, but Iggy insists that we use the right term of PARACETAMOL PILL.

- Thousand of bottles of water to soothe her poor voiceless throat!

Currently, that is all on my list. Any other suggestions?? Feel free to share them with me on the tagboard. =))
Oh well.. I did better end this off now or else I think I'll be in for spanking when mommsie recovers.

Disclaimer: ANDREA, I'm not shooting, suaning you or any of that sorts. It's my unique way to tell you to take care! And to the it* creature, your identity is clearly protected at the time being.

Adult fare comes with a Price.
Ok, lately after my my student fare was changed to Adult fare i'm on a so called saving frenzy...It's no longer those good old days of "oh meet at Hougang Stadium, ok, i'll take a bus down" and "yah, ok i'll take one stop to my home with you ...
Now, i'm gonna learn to treasure my farecard :'(. Yesterday at tampinese. I took the bus 81 and wanted to go home but what i didn't expected was that it went back to tampinese interchange which was 1 stop frome the bus stop i took from. Yup, BINGO, i took the wrong direction, how muddle-headed of me.And there goes that 65 cents, ahhh soo heart pain.
Now Mrt rides are all dollar plus there n here my $$$ in my farecard go down and down until i'm going bankrupt soon, ahhh... I just top up $10 yesterday, tap and tap and tap until i'm left with $4+...Oh my .. Not gonna travel alot already going be that homely person.Hai someone save me.
Ok, second thing, i cannot believe myself. Because of the saving frenzy.I've been
walking from my house to like hougang stadium there.And yesterday walk all the way to Xinmin seconday ahhh.My limit now is i'm going walk to Hougang mall or church . So wish me luck. ='(
Ahhh, i want to get myself a driver or else soon, I'll lose my legs from walking and walking and walking.Kk I'll stop here. 
Hmm but what is good is that in a way i get to know my limit and at the same time keep fit and healthy by all that walking. And i get to so called enjoy the view around and for one of the few moments of rushing here and there i get to just enjoy it in a way as time slowed down for those few minutes. I guess.
Haha ok Andrea logging of =).

Buses have something against me. I'm really convinced that buses have something against me. Why I say so? Check out my horrendous experience with buses these past 3 days.
On tues, while on my way to TJC as i mentioned before in teh previous post, I went and banged my head on the pole. Rejoice.
On wednesday, while going to Tampines on bus 27, I feel asleep on the ride and by some miracle, i fell forward and banged my head once again. this time, on the sit handle!!! Try that out, it's probably not an easy feat!
Today, I saw the bus coming and ran for the bus, though I reached the bus stop before the bus door closed, the bus left WITHOUT me!!! And the next thing, when I was on my home again, I sat beside tis girl who took out a packet of cheese biscuits and started eating.The smell alone was horrid, not to mention that the entire bus begun to reek of the smell of cheese! And somemore, the girl drop crumps on me!!
ARGH...!!!
till the bus engine breaks down,
nicole out!

Good O'mannered and Klutzy Me[nicole]
For those of you who are often out and about with me, (namely our dearest Andrea Phua) would have noticed that I'm pretty much of a klutz despite the fact that I used to take ballet and am supposed to be graceful. Please do take note of the fact that I used the word supposed! What about else one? Are you all as much of a klutzy, blurry person as I am??? I really sympathized those who are, as I deeply sympathized for myself but it gets worst when you are all good-mannered and everything and apologize to everything and I truly mean ANYTHING that you bumped into. Case 1:When out with a bunch of friends [i've forgotten who due to my stm!], I was leaning against what I thought to be a wall, and to my horror, the 'wall' collasped under my very weight. In shock I turned around to realize that it was a cardboard. Not embarrassed enough, I tripped over my own foot and nearly up in a entangled pile with the cradboards. Best thing, it took place in one of those big posh malls. Geez.Case 2: When out with my mommy at popular buying stationary for the new year [last yr], I was talking excitedly to mommy about some stuff and was waving my hands in all directions gesturing about whatever I was talking then and not only did I hit this really fit guy's stomach, I banged into the censor and set the alarm off. My favourite part, I apologized profusely to the censor.. Well, go figure!Case 3:It happened today while I was on my way to crash TJC and catch up with the likes of Lisa, Yvonne,
Kaili, Lisa and Michelle [just to name a few]. It was a looooong journey to Bedok Interchange and for those who don't know me well enough, I get bus sick. Seriously, put me on a bus for more than half an hour and I get dizzy and whining. A nicer way would be a pile of moaning and groaning green creature. That aside, the journey on bus 87 was nearly an hour, and by the time I reached, I was so pale I though I would puke. Fortunately, I was awoken from my pathetic state when I alighted the bus shakily and banged into the little pole with the doorbell on it. I could swore [iff i was permitted to..] that I saw birds flying in front of me. Once again, I had to go and say a bunch of "sorrys' to the silver pole standing firm in front of me. Ah!!! Thats just some of the very very mild stuff and I'm sure my embarrassing moments wouldn't stop just there. Oh well.. I shall NOT be so good mannered and apologize to non-living creatures from now on! Well, in the meanwhile, I shall avoid any further embarrassing stuff I could do. ..SO toodles and tata!nicole over.

Ok seriously i haven blog in ages...
Lets talk about reality awhile...
These past few days how i say was tough or either i realised lots and lots of stuff. I learnt that each step of a way you always got someone special beside you, actually for me is more than one, to help you, guide you, love you and just be there for you.People like Nicole, Marcus, Edwin and etc. are forever treasures as they were always there each step of the way for me.So as said treasure them before they disappear, you never know when they will be gone.
Second thing, in life there's always problems so instead of avoiding face it without fear. Life comes with a special set of things emotions and feelings and one more thing we all don't look like each other that's what makes us unique.That's why we should just be ourselves as we will live this life once, so live it your way not others.
Third, you got your own opinion to live it to the fullest so always be happy.It makes peoples days as well as yours, to see others happy you will be happy too =)
So i end my short little blog entry.... Love each other as you love yourselves
-Andrea-

Crash and Burn by Savage GardenWhen you feel all alone And the world has turned it's back on you Give me a moment please to tame your wild wild heart I know you feel like the walls are closing in on you It's hard to find relieve and people can be so cold When darkness is upon your door and you feel like you can't take anymore Let me be the one you call If you jump I'll break your fall Lift you up and fly away with you into the night If you need to fall apart I can mend a broken heart If you need to crash then crash and burn You're not alone When you feel all alone And a loyal friend is hard to find You're caught in a one way street With the monsters in your head When hopes and dreams are far away and You feel like you can't face they day Let me be the one you call If you jump I'll break your fall Lift you up and fly away with you into the night If you need to fall apart I can mend a broken heart If you need to crash then crash and burn You're not alone Because there has always been heartache and pain And when it's over you'll breathe again You'll breath again When you feel all alone And the world has turned its back on you Give me a moment please To tame your wild wild heart Let me be the one you call If you jump I'll break your fall Lift you up and fly away with you into the night If you need to fall apart I can mend a broken heart If you need to crash then crash and burn You're not alone This song is one of my utmost favourite piece by Savage Garden besides the likes of
Truly Madly Deeply and
I Knew I loved you. Why do I like this song? The lyrics are totally meaningful. And why on earth am I blogging about this song? I'm not sure why either, but I felt like the song has loads of meaning to it and that's probably the reason I'm talking about it.
In our hectic world, we are often faced with the stress of living and as the song clearly brings it across, we feel like the world has turned it's back on us. In life, stress, anger, hatred, jealousy, grief, sadness and even pain are often feelings that could overwhelmed us and make us feel depressed and lonely. However, I believe that no matter what problems we might face,
God will always be there for us till the end. Although this song Crash and Burn is NOT any sort of praise and worship song, its message touches me as though God is telling me that no matter what happen, i will not crash and burn alone. He's with me and he will guide me. So here's a shout-out to ALL my pals who are stressing cause of
examinations, parents, families, friends, studies, financial [like me], relationships etc etc etc.. I wanna tell you guys that other than me [and Andrea!], you will always have
GOD who loves us very dearly and he will come through to us in the end as long as we keep believing and praying! Have
FAITH!!!
Woo-hoo! That said, the praise and worship on monday during MM was awesome. I felt really touched by Jesus and I'm still a little high on his love! heh. Okie that aside, I think I should really get going and catch up with a few winks since I'm going jogging with Andrea tomorrow! Yupp. Est, Bun and Kel.. Get this..
We are going JOGGING! The start of my healthy lifestyle once again! Woots!
Toodles and stay healthy everyone!
Nicole, out.

Ok, Since i have no topics Left I shall write about, what sick can do to you and During that period what's happens...I'm not sure about guys but as for girls like me...When they get sick at first they don't really realise it.And as they get further from home it takes effect.That undesirable feeling making them feel so umcomfortable starting with the stomach that keeps squeezing and killing your appetite bit by bit.Then i will feel high on air, as giddiness takes affect.Then as you get on a bus which is so bumpy, you got that little feeling inside that make you go queasy and weird.At that time, you just, feel like going home and sleeping. But as for me,yesterday was a long day for me. I was totured by that feeling from the early morning till the afternoon came.I lost my appetite and it is like everything felt tasteless,even the most yummy
food became so blanded.Ok and my usual saying "when you get sick, drink more water!"And i drink gulps of water ok actually a bottle, but i still felt like flying and all i wanted to do is lean on somemore.So yup Nic and Marcus became my pillar of support.I'm sorry people. So anyway Nic actualli wanted to go for that job hunting thingy and yup, i'm still flying on air , she decided to send me home. Ok the journey was like long long long , like a turtle walking and never reaching, but thank god, i got a sit .Ok lets just summerize.I want had one of the longest naps, after it i got fever 0.0 , 38.6 degrees,oh my gosh , shocking .
The doctor never really said why i'm sick sadsad, ok, so just take the medicine-> according to my guess either is i ate too heaty food or i got food poiso
ning, and not to forget lack of rest and water. But for now i guess there will be no chocolatey or oily food, only soupy.Let's hope, when i'm well i got those yummy delicious tempting treats and dishes to eat again and hopefully someone will treat me haha...
So to teach your must eat less heaty food k and water is important ...WOOhoo...kk Going slp rdy =)And to marcus and nic , tks for being great pals, n to my youngest little bro/little dear n my second youngest bro tks for your concern =)-- ANDREA --
RECOLLECTING OUR FAVOURITE NURSERY RHYMES! [by Nicole.]We were standing on the escalator at Plaza Singapura yesterday and my legs suddenly felt weak, causing me to nearly fall off the high, moving stairs. Marcus who instead of being the "concern friend" he should have been, laughed merrily and started reciting to me "HUmpty DUMPTY!" Putting aside the part whereby I called him a "BUM" and sigh angrily, I turn to Andrea and hummed the above nursery rhyme instead.
That was when I noticed, this kiddy little songs we learnt as a child are not only good past times, but rather, they are sadistic too! Not convince, check this out!
Example 1:
Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall;
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.
All the King's horses
And all the King's men
Couldn't put Humpty together again!The poor egg is forever shattered. Oops.Example 2:
Itsy Bitsy Spider
Climbed up the waterspout.
Down came the rain
and washed the spider out! 
Out came the sun
nd dried up all the rain.
Itsy Bitsy Spider
Climbed up the spout again.
Do you think poor Itsy Bitsy Spider will survive in the water in the first place???Example 3:
It's raining,
it's pouring;
The old man is snoring.
He went to bed
And bumped his head,
And couldn't get up in the morning.He died. What more need I say??Example 4:
Jack and Jill went up the hill,
To fetch a pail of water;
Jack fell down and broke his crown,
And Jill came tumbling after.Geez, poor little Jack and his broken crown!Example 5:
Sing a song of sixpence,
a pocket full of rye;
Four and twenty blackbirds baked in a pie.
When the pie was opened, the birds began to sing;
Was not that a dainty dish to set before the king?
The King was in his countinghouse, counting out his money;
The Queen was in the parlor eating bread and honey.
The maid was in the garden, hanging out the clothes;
When along came a blackbird and snipped off her nose!
No more nose! it's eaten up. No elaboration needed!Example 6:
There was an old woman who lived in a shoe.
She had so many children,
she didn’t know what to do.
She gave them some broth without any bread,
And whipped them all soundly and sent them to bed.
Well, the best solution is to beat kids up soundly when you have too many children and live in a shoe I suppose. NOT!!
Example 7:
Three Blind Mice, three Blind Mice.
See how they run, see how they run.
They all ran after the farmer’s wife.S
he cut off their tails with a carving knife.
Did you ever see such a sight in your life,
As Three Blind Mice?No eyes not enough, no tails too!
Still not enough of these sadistic rhymes? here's more.
Example 8:
Rock -a-bye baby, on the tree top.
When the wind blows, the cradle will rock;
When the bough breaks, the cradle will fall
And down will come baby, cradle and all.Down came brittle baby, broken neck and all.
Example 9:
London Bridge is falling down,
Falling down, falling down,
London Bridge is falling down,
My fair Lady.There goes thou fairest lady.Example 10:
There was an old woman who swallowed a fly,
I don't know why she swallowed a fly,
Perhaps she'll die.
There was an old woman who swallowed a spider,
That wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her,
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly,
I don't know why she swallowed the fly,
Perhaps she'll die.
There was an old woman who swallowed a bird,
How absurd! to swallow a bird,
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider,
That wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her,
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly,
I don't know why she swallowed the fly,
Perhaps she'll die.

There was an old woman who swallowed a cat,
Imagine that! to swallow a cat,
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird,
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider,
That wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her,
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly,
I don't know why she swallowed the fly,
Perhaps she'll die.
There was an old woman who swallowed a dog,
What a hog! to swallow a dog,
She swallowed the dog to catch the cat,
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird,
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider,
That wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her,
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly,
I don't know why she swallowed the fly,
Perhaps she'll die.
There was an old woman who swallowed a goat,
Just opened her throat! to swallow a goat,
She swallowed the goat to catch the dog,
She swallowed the dog to catch the cat,
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird,
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider,
That wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her,
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly,
I don't know why she swallowed the fly,
Perhaps she'll die.
There was an old woman who swallowed a cow,
I don't know how she swallowed a cow!
She swallowed the cow to catch the goat,
She swallowed the goat to catch the dog,
She swallowed the dog to catch the cat,
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird,
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider,
That wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her,
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly,
I don't know why she swallowed the fly,
Perhaps she'll die.
There was an old woman who swallowed a horse,
She's dead-of course!
Well, the last one is one of the most sadistic I cam across so its here to conclude my point! Yupp. That's all I have to say and here I end my cathetism!
Before you start throwing tomatoes, potatoes and that sort at us, I'm here to blog. yes. I'm blogging. Again. Period.
I was surfing about online and came across this quotation. "Love is the master key which opens the gates of happiness." --Oliver Wendell Holmes
Well, for starters I don't really know who this Oliver Wendell Holmes guy is. But what he says puzzles me. Greatly.
It can't possibly be true can it? this guy must probably be very in love at the time when he made such a statement. Why do I say that?
- I'm completely single and I'm perfectly happy.
- Friends bring happiness too. Take Andrea for example.
- Family brings great joy too!
Well, maybe more love in the world would bring about more peace, less bombs and even lesser destruction, but is love the only Master Key? I think not. To have love, you must have God afterall.
So, I think The Father's Love is the master key!
Well, move aside Oliver, cause there's a new quote to boot. Written by the self-proclaim genius, namely me.
"God's LOVE is the master key which opens the gates of happiness."--Nicole Alexis Eslyn Kuah.
