生日!!!!!!

I'm officially 24 m(-.-)m. Good thing i didnt feel any older... just another day :) I'll feel old when i hit 30. I did when i hit 20.... cus i realise i'm a 20s... not a 10s anymore... was pretty sad then... lol... so i guess i'll feel old again when i hit 30. (笑）

i got a present from YS again!! i'm too spoilt XD. two presents in two weeks! too much huh hehe... thanks dear.. ^^

had a wonderful korean feast with family for dinner at Desa pArk city. Too bad the service is... hmm well... yeah.. waited for 1 hour and we were still not served... even those ppl who came later then us was served first X[ but the food was nice... especially their bulgolgi and dubu steamboat. b(^.^)d two thumbs up! Seafood steamboat was too spicy for my liking... tho their prawns were really good... so were the crabs..

my wish:

i hope everything that i wanted will go smoothly.
i hope next year will be a great year.
i hope next year will pass by fast too (for some reasons hee...)
i hope next year today i've achieved what i wanted and able to celebrate it with ys (just in case we really ended up not in the same place.. long story):(
i hope i'll remain disciplined for the entire academic year. wish me luck m(>.<)m

I heart Victor Borge

I didnt know his existance until last night. What a sheer genius!!!!! "Victor Borge (pronounced [ˈborgə] "BOR-guh"; January 3, 1909 – December 23, 2000), born Børge Rosenbaum, was a Danish comedian, conductor and pianist, affectionately known as The Clown Prince of Denmark, The Unmelancholy Dane, and The Great Dane." (wikipedia)

he's just so talented. And FUNNY.... he has became one of my fav comedian now...




his infamous phonetic punctuations! (phhssst pputttt)


his infamous inflationary language. "i nine an elevenderloin with my fivek"


upside down playing... lol lol....


i like this one! He said Debussey's Clair de Lune as "clear the saloon" haha. And he said Beethoven's a spanish?! lol... and what a genius rendition of Happy Birthday! This is for all us novemberians! Happy birthday lil bro, quinn, melissa, suzy, suchi, and moi! ^^ right if u didnt get his moonlight joke... beethoven's famous piece was moonlight sonata.


more happy birthday renditions from all famous composers of all time. he's very very good man -.- if only i could play like him.

what to do what to do????

I'll be working almost every weekend in november. 2 sunday X's, one public holiday X, a sunday full, one saturday full.... when will this turmoil end? I tried my best to work with more enthusiasm each day but i think i have lost my interest in a diagnostic lab (wait, i never had interest in diagnostic labs). T.T I've realised too that after the horrible 090909 baby massacre, i have somehow developed an A-shift phobia. I have the urge to quit. The stress i have to go through when things do not go smoothly in an A shift is nerve wrecking. Luckily it's a good day today... i was almost in a depressed mode right before work. I would seriously go nuts if i were to stay on. Seriously.

Anyways....... let's talk about something happy.

29th was our anniversary. It has been 1 year. Time flies. :) Kinda surreal still. Never thought something like this would happen between us. After all these years! 9 years.. mind u. The day was a bliss. We both took a day off. :p Celebrated with food and more food in Shogun! Then watched This is it! YS have been accompanying me a lot on MJ stuffs... even tho he doesnt fancy MJ as much. Thanks for tolerating my MJ-ness! o.o I even got a gift!!!!! Wasn't expecting any. But that's how he is ^^. Thank you so much! It'll definitely last me a very long long long time. I will take good care of it.




*pls excuse our lovey-dovey photofunia moments* :p

We had more food the next day at Sunway's Tasty Pot steamboat buffet. Seriously... i need to loose all the extra calories i've gained >.<... I NEED DANCE~! MJ's This is it. For those who wanted a glimpse of what he had to offer for the concert, then u would want to watch this is it. Watch how he wanted to portray his music, his new background clips and props for the concerts, his rehearsal..... at age 51... it's amazing he's still able to dance and sing like that. The way he sings.. it's like he's shouting but he's doing it so effortlessly. He's such a humble person too. He's an amazing person. A genius in the entertainment and fashion industry... what he wore 30 or 20 years ago still looked so cool on him. Ending the post with Mj's last song.... this is it.

ブザー・ビート(Buzzer beat) ~ B'z craze

B'z was one of the only Japanese rock bands i use to like.. still is but havent been listening to their songs lately ( i loved their brotherhood album.. they are like the japanese version of Beyond to me)... until Buzzer beat came. Watched Buzzer beat not too long ago and i really liked their soundtrack. Today i had some time and went online in hope to search for some piano sheets.... leading me to this girl nicknamed kamedayori's youtube page. She's a HUGE B'z fan and a piano lover. I really love her piano version of B'z Ichibutozenbu, the opening of Buzzer Beat. Sugoi!!

Kamedayori's piano version


sighs.. if only i'm as talented as her T.T i sucked at piano.

wahlau eh....

today is not an ordinary day. why? because

1. how often do u happen to draw a celebrity's blood? without expecting them to be there? yes i just did that this morning at 7.30 am. Whose blood? this fella down here



yes apparently he's been admitted to the hospital i'm working at for the past few days without my realisation. I was on ward round shift today. Tho i remembered hearing it on the radios that he's sick at the moment and DJ's have been wishing him to get well soon. Thought he might be in Taiwan or wherever that he is nowadays. So there i was taking out the blood request forms and one of the forms were his full name. his full name is pretty funny lol (right i'm not going to type his name here just so that ppl who are not readers of my blog would not simply stumbled upon it for typing his name on google.).... so anyway i suddenly realised who he was and my heart skipped a beat! i don't really fancy him per se.... but i guess it's just one of those feelings when u suddenly realise u'll be able to see a celebrity face to face. plus he is a good singer and i do listen to some of his songs so... i was pretty shocked when i realised i'll be taking his blood. I knocked on his door, not knowing yet still if it's really him i'll be taking and there he was sitting on the bed talking to his parents who were also in his room. i said morning, and he said morning... are u here to draw blood? in mandarin. luckily i was able to draw his blood at one go. he seemed nice and pretty co-operative. after taking the blood his mom asked how long the results will be out and he said thank you before i left. so.. that was that.. my first face to face with verbal and physical (have to grab his arm to draw blood and touch for his veins u see) communication encounter with a celebrity. lol..... when i reach back the lab my colleague asked me "peimun, u draw XXX's blood ah??? how was it?? was he handsome?" -.- another colleague of mine who was on ward round shift yesterday morning took his blood too.. but too bad as XXX is still sleeping when he got there and didnt much pay attn to my colleague.. so i've heard.

2. i had a free lunch with a seminar on BNP as potential biomarker for kidney failure by an american physician/researcher in a room full of doctors and surgeons. i was there with another 3 colleagues (those permanent in biochem). So since it was a room full of doctors.. it was quite an intellectual one.The talk was quite entertaining and i was quite surprise some doctors didn't know what BNO was. =.= B type natriuretic peptide... i knew from uni.. doh... but perhaps i was jsut lucky to be working on that venom project for my final year. :)

3. mousie called me alllll the way from aus with this "PM GET ON MSN NOW!!!!!!!!" was wondering what's going on... i mean... she have not called me like that for the past three years i'm here... -.- and that's all because of......

4. our 짱가....... engaged????? 0.0 congrats u............................ it was unexpected but..... weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee we shall be in sydney for ur wedding!!!!!!

Eminence Orchestra

This piece of Solid Metal Gears soundtrack gives me goosebumps! Guitar and drums in an orchestra... interesting. I thought the drums part could be use in some really cool bboy performance too.. lol...



I dont usually listen to orchestra... even tho i was brought up with so much classical influence... piano and ballet. It's about time i start to admire the beauty of orchestra. the only orchestra i had really really liked before this was the S&M version of Metallica's The call of ktulu. Metallica collaborated with the San Francisco Orchestra for their special S&M concert back in 99.

おべんと！

I was you-tubing and found this really cool series of video by cookingwithdog. It's the channel that teaches how to cook jap food. really good one! one of the best jap cooking lessons i've seen online. Anyways... i like the way she make the bento. Bento i think is an art. really japanese ppl are just too creative! here's the video.



and then i went on some more to find if there's other ppl who posted up how to make bento. I just like the art. It amazed me. I found this video of Naruto bento! whoa.... some of them are quite nice. As if the manga-ka himself have made them cus it look exactly like the cartoon characters themselves. I used to watch Naruto while i was in uni. It's been a long time. hehe... i like kakashi. Kakkoi desu. I dont think i would eat a bento like this tho. haha... but i would eat the one made by cookingwithdog! so healthy and cute.

Self-reflecting

Seems like i have a bunch of things i need to do.. but i dont have the time to sit and analyse every situation completely to give an action. I was hoping to do some self reflection soon. I tend to need to do that once in a while to keep in pace of my life and keep in track. Sometimes i tend to live life without thinking much. Yet sometimes it irked me when i feel like i'm not living my life to the fullest. i have yet to set my life goals. I think ppl need life goals somehow. They need to know what they wanted in order to live life to the fullest. Time passed by in a blink of an eye. Without knowing, it's already mid of october. Cancer prof replied again :). so for oct... i need to

1. get meeting materials done tomorrow
