NUS Commencement.

Last Friday, I attended my sister's commencement ceremony at NUS UCC. Well I didn't exactly attend the ceremony, was just in time for the refreshment (or is it dinner?). heh heh. My boss was kind enough to allow me to leave work an hr earlier. And with a bit of drama on the cab (don't want to elaborate on this since cab drivers already have such bad reputations), I was in time for the most important parts of the event, the food and phototaking.

I was really excited when I got there, really eager to find my family. I saw happy faces everywhere, graduates running here and there to take photos with their friends. But the UCC foyer was abit too crowded to be comfortable. Anyway the refreshment was okay, some bee hoon, bao, cakes and stuffs. Fast forward to the photo taking... erm, the back of UCC was under construction so there wasn't many nice scenary for phototaking, just a couple of blue backdrops. After a few quick shots with my family, I quickly took up the role of my sister's personal photographer. She had all these funny poses with her friends. At first I was like "OK, sure! Where? Go where take the photos?", after a while it was more like "Huh? Still wanna take more?". It was tiring. It was worth it. Cuz its "usually" once in a lifetime thingy (unless you getta wear the farmer's bonnet for your masters or phd) =P. And she's my sis!

Okay here's a picture of both of us inside UCC.

The Bridal Dowry.

The delivery of dowry ( 送嫁妆 ) is another important custom. It represents parent's effort for her daughter to have a good life after marriage and prepare her with the necessities for being a good wife. I am amazed by some of the things included in the dowry. Of course, in our modern living, we will not be using some of those things... Nevertheless, I think it is all good to have them, as each item carries a good meaning for our blissful marriage. :-)

If you have it, just flaunt it.

Its such a lousy day, I have decided to blog another entry. Yesh, I am thinking about things other than my last two papers on Thurs and Friday. Something probably talked alot before by many people... What is it with men and women with 可爱-oooii *杨丞琳's voice* face, long tresses, slim legs, curvey body, in revealing tight clothes (only for those with the former characteristics), in pink. Why are men so attracted to those features? The guy is lying if he says he will not turn his head when he sees women with those features. I think it has nothing to do with men being lustful or anything disgusting. It probably has something to do with the genes, the hormones. I don't believe it has to do with things like its men's nature instinct to look for partners who can reproduce blahblahblah. That's so boring! Its something mysterious, something that let men derives pleasure by just looking openly, without doing anything bad or harmful or immoral. Do women ogle at men all the time too

Dreaming About You.

I usually leave my handphone on during the night (just in case if anyone want to contact me urgently, eg. a friend in need of help etc). But I think I will be leaving my phone off from now on. Why? In the wee hours this morning, I received three continuous sms . I forced myself outta bed to read the message, thinking it must be something very important. I surprised to read that they were messages from " Dreamchat ", telling me that " someone is dreaming of me ". Oh great! What a good reason to wake me up! It also asked me to call this 1900 number to listen to the message. There was even a member id at the end... So someone still wide awake in the middle of the night decided to use this wonderful service to let me know he/she is dreaming of me leh. wah seh. I immediately deleted the messages and went back to sleep. Knowing I will just have a few more hours of my six hours daily sleep time left. How did this " Dreamchat " thingy got my handphone number? Is
