Went studying with Melvin and Meiqing at NIE yesterday. Overall, we chatted quite a bit but I managed to complete some of the work. Anyway, it's definitely better than when I am studying at home. The computer and the television is just too much of a temptation.
Empty canteen.
Messy table. Hahhaa.
Meiqing and Melvin hard at work.
Took a photo of ourselves before we left. Hahhaa. Anyway, have you guys bought the I-weekly this week?
It is the one with Donnie Yen on the cover. My article is published! =)))I had actually sent out my article the week before so I thought it would be published last week. However, i saw my article this week instead. Hahhaa. Sometimes, life is just about uncertainties.
很喜欢上星期杨丽玲的《自由论》。
喜欢江蕙，也喜欢台语歌。庆幸自己小时候是公公带大的，所以还能够听得懂福建话，并且感动于歌词的含意。曾经听人说过，台语歌曲所能带来的感动大大多于其他语言的歌曲。我原本不这么认为，但在接触了台语歌曲后，我才明白其中的道理。江蕙的《家后》，《落雨声》和《甲你揽牢牢》---- 这三首歌有着含蓄简单的歌词却能制造出澎湃动人的情感，“感动度”之然不在话下。
新加坡在过几十年将很有可能完全失去我们的方言。试问：失去了方言，我们仅仅失去了一个毫不重要的地方语言吗？
真的很希望方言能够在本地电视重见天日。
Yeah. This is my article. Actually, I find it badly written after I read it again today. It is about dialects AGAIN. Hahaha. I am always writing about dialects. Somehow, my articles on dialects seem to be striking a chord with the editors more. Hahaa.
Nevertheless, I still won myself a watch from Cosmopolitian. It's a ladies watch but I can probably give it to my mom. I am hoping that they will change the prize when I claim for it next month. Hahhaa. Anyway, they always do so.
As usual, the editors made changes to my article. This was what I had orginally written.
阮的批

PS: 阮是台语的我的意思。批念pway，是信的意思。
I wanted to make the letter sound more interesting by giving it a hokkien title but it didn work out. Hahaha. I really thought it was creative!!!
I have a craving for snow skin mooncakes!!! Hahha.
Okay, bye!
Seriously, food wasn that nice and service was really bad. First, we requested for iced water and the waitress told us that there wasn enough cups in the restaurant at the very moment!! Wth! Aren restaurants supposed to have cups more than the maximum capacity that they can manage? Next, they didn pass us the forks when they served their food. Are they expecting us to eat with our hands?!?! Lastly, they forgot an order of us and made John waited for his order for more than 30 minutes!!!! This is totally unacceptable!!
Sometimes, it is really nice to just listen to my friends talk about lives. Hahhaa. Anyway, we were all so agitated when we talked about our skin. Hahha. I really hope that we will all have good skin.
Friends forever.
Our outfits yesterday. As usual, Meiqing dressed fasionably while I looked just like an average joe. Hahaha.
