Digital Harinezumi - The Review

2009-09-20T22:19:00.002+08:00

Macro shot. this function was quite well done.. there's no way i can like focus but it turned out better than expected.

colourful colours. was quite surprised that the camera is able to capture such vibrant images and at such low lighting as well. i had to adjust to ISO800 for this shot. the changeable ISO is a plus to the camera!

the vignette effect, and the exposure is really good on this camera. smooth. no other digital camera is able to capture this effect. Superheadz done it again! it's the highly sought after camera after the black bird fly! i highly recommend this camera though its on the high end side. it's digital, so it'll save u some "insignificant" cash in the future.

prepare

2009-09-17T20:11:00.001+08:00

for a review on the ultimate of the ultimates..

dream or day dream?

2009-09-14T16:26:00.003+08:00

I have a dream.

To be one of the few people in SG to do Kayak Slalom and to be the few to represent SG in competitions for this event. (hahahahaha..)

This event tests your mental and physical endurance.

This sport tests your ability to think fast.

And of course, be the very few girls in SG to go pro in kayak slalom. =)

but of course, that dream can only happen after the water stadium is built. If not there's not way i can do slalom. Meanwhile, I guess I could slowly pick up playboating. =)

IITSC TBC 09/10

2009-09-10T15:30:00.003+08:00

The camp was great but really tiring.. 3 days 2 nights, and a total of 4 hours of sleep, is really not fun at all. But other than the lack of sleep, it was really really fun!!!!! The part I liked most about the camp, was that the sub comms actually put up a cheer together as a whole for us main comms. Me likes many!

It's my first time being an FA, and frankly speaking, I have no idea how to be one =x so I feel really bad for my "Vignett" to get an inexperienced FA. After reading the appreciation thing, I actually feel better. =)

Being a medic is not fun man.. I have to like run around, abandoning my empire every now and then to attend to people who seek medical attention, of which, some don't even qualify to seek medical needs. tsk.. I feel so under appreciated.. LOL!

I'm like in charge of so many departments, assistant food committee, Medic, and main FA. lol.. busy bee running around..

I'm glad I somehow revived the "underwear" cheer. My empire liked it, hahaha. The last time I heard it was during Open House 2008, almost 2 years ago. I miss all the old and fun cheers. I miss all the alumnis. But I hope I can like maybe slowly bring back some of the good old stuff, and make IITSC the way it was so RAH RAH again.

day 0

2009-09-06T14:59:00.000+08:00

I'm in school, getting on with day 0 of the team bonding camp. Not really busy with anything, but strangely tiring.. ._. and it's nothing compared with me being the main FA, whereby I'll be running around with my empire. Good luck have fun everyone.

I'm quite pleased with myself being in camp. Taking my mind off everything.. It's good. =)

See you guys at camp!

Redundancy

2009-09-03T10:50:00.000+08:00

I wrote one whole chunk of words here, only to decide to delete the entire thing due to its irrelevancy. I did what I did, and there's no way I can change that. All I can do is just cross my fingers, and hope for the better without putting that much effort into thinking about it.

It made my realize, how much of a load it was to just keep it inside. I literally felt much lighter after opening up that bottle cap. My heart was racing, as if I was high. Ah well..

I'm making myself busy by Facebooking/Mouse Hunting. The office is strangely quiet today, and I could get used to it as I've been somewhat busy this week. The feeling of being hunted by various people to do work is horrible. I just need some peace and quiet. 1 supervisor is enough, the occasional helping of here and there is fine, but it's becoming a habit. I'm not the only intern here, so I don't really see why I should be the one tanking all the jobs.

I need to get out. I need the feel the sun and wind in my face. I need some sweat out sessions. My body is hay-wire now since the attachment began. I really wonder how I'm going to handle my up-coming camp. I'm already sleep deprived enough.

2009-08-31T13:57:00.003+08:00

to the new skin. I got sick of staring at black screens reading white words as I couldn't really read properly for other screens. Thus, the change.

Am quite emo about work today. I'm not supposed to be doing admin on mondays, thursdays and friday. But since S.F isn't here today, I have to help take over her duties. I think Sheena transferred the calls to her, which I am thankful of. =) But I'm gonna be sitting here for 3 days a week. zzz..

Monday blues are seriously a chore. Someone should find a cure for it. Perhaps invent a "Anti-Monday Blue Pill" or something. It's a serious thing and should be dealt with full force.

It's Teacher's Day celebration today, but neither of us can go back to say hi to the lovely teachers. Damn the SIP.. zzzzz..

I need to do hardcore kayaking soon. I'm losing my tan and my strength. GAH!

Rain

2009-08-30T13:35:00.002+08:00

It's been raining since early morning. We can't go to Pulau Ubin thanks to the rain..

Now I need a cup of hot coffee.

Camp's around the corner. Can't wait really..

Nothing to blog.. life will be more interesting when internship ends..

oh results are gonna be out soon. ya.

Weekends

2009-08-23T01:51:00.002+08:00

weekends are my favorite ever since the start of internship.

Celebrated Sarah's birthday on Friday. Hope you enjoyed yourself.

Went back to school today, just to reformat my laptop. Thanks Alex for the help, and thanks Kok Peng for the Windows 7 CD. I'm still amazed at how my super old laptop can handle the new Windows 7 OS. Haha. Only 32GB max of Hard Drive. =D I'm loving my "new" laptop btw.

Kayaking tomorrow with the usuals. Still kinda bummed out that I'm not attending the roll clinic due to some last minute adjustments. Nevertheless, I'm gonna like open my ears wide enough to grab some tips on rolling. So gonna do it..

2009-08-16T23:53:00.000+08:00

the last informal meeting was a super knock in the head for most of us. wake up call on how serious things are. haiz..

i got nothing interesting to write about.. hopefully the photo trip at the comic convention this sunday will still be on.. zzz..

happy birthday brother! 22 yo..

i sense it already.. hmm..

Dear Grandma,

2009-08-10T16:13:00.000+08:00

How are you? It's Singapore's 44th birthday today. It was really fun. Mum nagged at me for going out until so late, but I guess it's ok now. Hope your day was good.

PS: I miss you a lot.

xoxo,

pot luck steamboat later at sarah's place.. hope its a good one..

no time no time

2009-08-07T00:52:00.000+08:00

I haven't found the time to write nowadays due to SIP. plus, there's nothing interesting to talk about either.

Radio Invasion 2009 was a success thanks to the 98.7fm crew! Thanks to all those who came as well! I was so afraid that there won't be anybody there but it was almost a full house at the end! phew.. I agree with desmond, it was indeed a gamble to put it at the auditorium. but it worked out anyway!! :D :D :D

my first time being an organizer and it was a success. 1 down, 2 to go. haha..

it turns out that the demand for my mutton shirt was quite good. But i'm lazy to make. how?

i really really really want a photo trip soon..

Hello Rainbow!

2009-07-30T12:25:00.001+08:00

2009-07-28T10:03:00.003+08:00

I'll skip the part about taking the bum boats cos it's not very interesting. -_-

Welcome to Pulau Ubin. Been a while since I last came here.

So we rented our bikes, and then we set of. First stop, bike point since we can't cycle into certain areas. and wtf, the moment we started, we chanced upon a slope which was deadly i tellew.. i can still cycle up, but my body (leg especially) totally nua-ed after reaching the peak.

hello piggy~

we walked towards the bungalow, look see, and then, Qing screamed which freaked me out a bit. Some snake was in their way, Sheng Long stepped on it thinking it was some rope. Oh my..

we took quite a long break on the bridge thingy, we were under the sun, feeling the sea breeze, talking. it was quite shiok though we were under the sun. haha..

next, we walked to this,

which was so damn tall, slightly tiring to climb, and slightly shaky, but has a really nice view..

we could see quite far out from the top of the bridge, but cos it was so damn high up, and the whole thing was swaying left to right, we quickly made our way back down. lol.

we then walked about the mangrove area. we started observing the mangrove creatures. lol, like so interesting can..

After passing the mangrove walk, we arrived at another bridge which supposedly was where the chek jawa wetlands were. unfortunately it was high tide, so we weren't able to see all the water life. we took a break at the sheltered area, and had quite a few laughs.

we were then back at where we were from, after conquering the east side of ubin.

we had ice cream. yay! =D

since we had quite some time left,

we cycled further east for a while.

we then went back, ate seafood dinner. =D no pictures on that. lol. too tired to care and too hungry to bother.

then we returned the bike, took the bum boat back, and they came to my place for card game. hahaha.. ice cream chef after that, and it was home for me.

fruitful day! :D

OT-OT

2009-07-20T00:06:00.002+08:00

but be back in 3 minutes. lol..

Own Time Own Target my Wild Rice, is.. so... vulgar. ._.

nice and vulgar.. lol... CB CHAO RECRUIT!

cb here cb there, fck u here, fck off there. LOL!

some spoof of army daze, only more.. modern. go catch it! its nice.. and watching shows with free ticket is shiok! just like how we will rock you is shiokkkk...

am currently having stomach spasms. not funny man.. i dont even know what i ate wrong. can't be the coffee what.. the whole day i've endured spasm. during the show, i was like almost dying. zzz.. am trying to eat some bread now so i can down some gastric pills. zz. i dunno how i'm gonna sleep later man.. MC tomorrow? LOL!

2009-07-18T02:32:00.001+08:00

updates

2009-07-14T15:42:00.002+08:00

yes, i've made a disappearing act over the weekend. but i'm back!

*i intended to blog about an hour ago. but things just kept coming in. =.= i'm free now though..

celebrated Tekai's birthday on friday. expensive meal on a very fun day.. lol.

went to school for informal meeting on saturday. stayed till about 9.30pm. so irritating. i intended to leave earlier but it started raining heavily the moment i opened the clubroom door.

kayaking on sunday! fun fun! though i wasn't told that we were going out for an expedition, we went ahead anyway, thankfully it wasn't 1 round ubin. =.= i guess some one wasn't so ambitious after facing the choppy seas just outside the marker. hahahaha! funny funny.. got a little sunburnt.. Now am thinking if i should go for the roll clinic. $30 and limited spaces. zzz.

i was told that my external guest speakers form was misplaced by ______. thanks ah, thanks a lot.. other than that, everything else for radio invasion is almos good to go! i just need to prepare the token of appreciations.

my skin is peeling. =.=

she sucks.

2009-07-10T12:45:00.003+08:00

after which,

epic..

day 1

2009-07-06T23:42:00.002+08:00

HORRIBLY PHAILED!

it's even worse than my day 1 back in MS where at least, i had stacks of papers to unstaple. here, i have nothing, and was literally left there to fend for myself.

ultimate boring.

what's worst, the computers there are all running on windows 2000! like whurtufff.. i've never even used windows 2000 before.. and its super lag. even worse than my lappy. now i appreciate my lappy a whole lot more.. lappy's coming with me to work everyday from now on!

on the other hand, Roger Federer won yo!

discipline

2009-07-02T12:56:00.001+08:00

I've been lacking discipline lately. like really lacking it. have not done things properly, and have not done the things i wanted to be done..

one thing is, i haven't been kayaking for almost 2 months. 2 months is 8 weeks. considering the fact that i kayak almost every week before i stopped, 8 weeks is a lot. i'm turning flabby. and turning lazy, and i'm losing my tan. sheesh. i wanna go on saturday, but nobody can. gosh.. i'm missing the sun, the sea and the dancers. i've yet to take my 3 star assignment, i've yet to be able to do rolls with 50% success rate. i'm still at 1% mind you..

urgh.. procrastination.. i just wanna go back to sea..

second thing. i have my napfa test tomorrow. and i've not trained for it at all. i kept telling myself to go run and run and run and train, nothing happens in the end. my self motivation is like super lousy. pray i don't die during the test.

third thing. i have not met my pals for a very long time. and i dont even remember the last time we met. grr.. i'm not busy at all, its just that everyone thinks i am, and i have no idea why. FLENS!! JIO ME OUT! I'M TURNING EMO SOON JUST FROM STAYING AT HOME OR AT SCHOOL THE WHOLE DAY! sip starting soon. i just need to get out and laugh..

random video conferencing with mich and james now. while i wait for the videos to upload on photobucket. seems like i'll have to leave the laptop on through the night.

2009-07-01T23:49:00.002+08:00

i've been going to school everyday, till late night almost everyday now. kinda sick of school already.. zzz..

SIP begins on monday! the thought of yishun, urgh..

Radio Invasion is going pretty smoothly~ just hope that the proposal is ok..

food for thought

2009-06-30T01:03:00.002+08:00

how do you tell if someone is thinking straight (or seriously)?

yay it's 1am!

oh mario came back today. that botak looked better with botak head la! looked so much fresher. and the long lost guitar and sing along tunes was back in the clubroom. ah the memories.

Transformers: Revenge of the fallen

2009-06-29T01:21:00.002+08:00

I don't care what everyone's negative comments they have on transformers 2. I've seen it, and it's more incredible than the incredibles!

cool shit i tell you.. cool shit.. the long wait for this show paid off..

random conversation i had with michelle after the show, we were in the toilet.

Michelle, "Woah, it's freaking cool man!"

Me, "what? the toilet?"

lol.

14 people, from iitsc, in 1 theatre, is cool.

ANYHOO~

worked 2 days for singtel, giving out flyers. Thanks Val, kangyan and siewlin for the job. damn frigging tiring sialxz. and val is good at this job. she gives out flyers like 10 times faster than me. but ya, point is. clementi is not a fun place to be. =.=

firstly, val got scolded by some aunty just because she was working. lol, funny i must say. "xiao mei ah~ you're so young! why are you working and not studying in school? if it weren't for you being so young, i wouldn't even take it!" . it was a saturday. and she took from me as well today. HAHA!

secondly, the people at clementi (more towards the uncles and aunties) are super realistic. see the flyer (without taking it mind you), $0, "免费啊？" or "free phone ah?" or even if they did take the flyer, they would then ask the same questions and then say, "oh, must sign contract, then dont want la". AND THEN they'll return u the flyer. wtfish..

thirdly, people at clementi not very friendly ah. they don't seem to know how to smile. of cos there were the minorities who are really nice. but some are just so dao. For eg, you hand out the flyer to them, they'll just stare into it, and walk pass you without even saying no thanks, or at least give a sign that you don't need it. some, pretend to look at something else when they approach you, while some will just naturally detour to further off their route just to avoid you. ya thanks ah. made my job much easier.

lastly, placing us at some random NTUC, not very good la.. they all come out with so many bags in their hands, how to take flyer? -.- plus they all like to walk around that area and i don't know why. i see so many repeated faces. urgh..

oh and for some reasons, the company super cheapo. they actually want the shirt back. wth.

It's the end.

2009-06-25T23:21:00.002+08:00

THE END OF ALL MY MODULES! YAY! :D now i have to wait till july 6 for SIP. zzz.

Banking presentation today was... alright.. no comments. turned out to be quite funny though. lol..

brother came out from tekong this afternoon. he's damn lucky his unit wasn't quarantined. hah.. missed CSC's AGM because i totally forgot he's coming out today. zz.. bah..

at everything..

Microsoft project, fuck you.. u nearly cost me 50 odd pages of nothing.

some people are just hopeless. Hadn't it been me to ask whether that particular something has been done, nothing would have happened at all. should have just went with plan B. and thanks for making me clear up all the crap.

i'm not even in the mood to post happy stuff anymore.

you're welcome. biatches..

2009-06-20T00:09:00.002+08:00

To the clown who attempted at defaming us, thank you for your time and effort at making yourself known! You're more than welcomed to join us as a Sub-committee. Now we could make IT happen if you could just leave your name. Thanks! =)

To the annoying fly who can't stop bothering me. No, no and NO! Now if you could just DISAPPEAR! That'll really make me happy. =)

I'm eating Nissin Laksa cup noodles at 12.15am, because there's no dinner at home, and I didn't have my subway earlier. Boo...

Desmond nearly killed all of us in clubroom earlier on. We laughed like we never laughed before. IITSC is loved.. =)

Random Musings

2009-06-18T21:31:00.003+08:00

I'm gonna make a quick blog, and then proceed to bathe. I smell like my dogs now.

Just caught Oprah, and it was about sperm donors and their unknown kids who wants to know who their father is, but ends up finding their own siblings and freaking themselves out. yup. No doubt, it's their right to know where they come from. But, is it that easy to find your dad?

Or alternatively, if you're the dad looking for your kids, how the heck are you gonna find them?! There was like this guy on set, he was saying that back when he was in his late teens (or early twenties, can't remember), he actually donated his sperm 3 times a week, just for the money. LOL! And guess how long he did that? 4 YEARS!! If I remembered correctly, he earned about $16,000. Seriously, like how?

They then blah blah blah-ed about some of the children there on the set, not being able to find their dad, and boo hoo hoo-ing about wanting to know their rights, or where they're from. Not interested.

By the way, whatever happened to Aces day? The one where everybody exercises together.. hmm..

Anyway, the more interesting part is, 2 half siblings found each other. They have the same father/donor aka donor #46. They found each other off some search site, and started emailing each other for 3 months before they met. They live less than 30 miles away, coincidentally like the same stuff ie. French, and strangely, look REALLY alike. They can even pass off as twins.

So cool right?

The problem with sperm banks is, you can have many people donating sperms most probably for a good cause. But it never crosses their mind that they can have like hundreds of kids without their knowing. The number of unknown real fathers in kids, can really grow up to millions if this thing isn't handled properly.

Food for thought..

interview

2009-06-16T23:04:00.002+08:00

the trip to yishun, wasn't worth it at all. i gotta thank my parents for sending me there. cos i don't know how isolated it is.. blah. the food at the coffeeshop opposite is horrible. and overpriced. i can see myself frequenting northpoint in the not so distant future.

why did the company ask me to go for an interview when they've already decided to take me in. like, such a waste of time. and the test they gave me, is so horribly difficult. everything in the paper is about java, and the last time i touched java is like more than a year ago. nice one..

brother fell down a flight of stairs in tekong and hurt his back. apparently the ground was wet, and the army boots weren't of much help thanks to the hard soles. from what i know, his back is swollen, he can barely walk, has 1 week off from duty, and is provided with medical needs. at least the army is humane enough to arrange him to see a specialist for free.

but i still don't get how he fell. hmm.. hope he's alright la..

madness

2009-06-15T22:03:00.001+08:00

i'm gonna go all the way to yishun tomorrow morning, for an interview for my internship program. zzzzzzz

4B gathering

2009-06-14T23:23:00.003+08:00

wonderful evening with the 4B friends. Been a year since i last met of them altogether, and i kinda enjoyed it. a lot of changes i see, for good and for bad. oh well.. that's life.. but they never fail to make me smile or laugh or whatever. haha...

now i can really see how army can change someone. jia jun just passed out from BMT, and seem to have changed, and not like the old jj anymore. i dunno.. attitude wise.. though he still smokes blah blah blah what have you. he's just a different person now. heh. hopefully my brother will just mature in army. jj said BMT can really torture if someone isn't fit at all.. and my bro is unfit. -.-

oh listening to avenue Q soundtrack while cycling in ECP during the day, is quite interesting. haha. happy tunes and sunny windy day, really made me smile and i dont really know why..

today is happy day.

oh yesterday was like shopping spree. mainly cos it was my sister's birthday, so i kinda chen ji. 8) but quite a good steal for us. got myself a puma jacket at $24, 70% off yo.. old model, but who cares, its nice. a shirt from pull and bear at $18, quite nice. and finally a shoe from everlast at i think $35 after 20% discount. like i finally got myself a new pair of shoes. -.- my parents and sister got a few stuffs also.. GSS rocks can..

kopi o gao

2009-06-11T15:36:00.002+08:00

just came back after sending my brother off to tekong. yep, he finally enlisted. and i really mean finally. =.= his ns green card photo is like 3 years ago. that shows how long he delayed his enlistment.

tekong doesn't look like a bad place actually. well, i don't know what the training is like, so i can't really say its paradise, but it looks like any other school with hostel. lol.

anyway its time for my brother to get rid of his bad nonsense, and grow up. his serving the army at 22 freaking year old. sheesh..

Terminator Salvation

2009-06-08T19:04:00.002+08:00

WAS COOL!!! though i still think the storyline never changes, with it being so predictable and all, it still is cool..

awesome computer graphic, awesome sounds, awesome everything about it.

now if transformers can be twice as cool as the first one.

it's been a while since i last blogged decently. and its all thanks to mr school work. blah..

so many things have happened the past month or so. and strangely, i cant seem to recall what any of the events were about. hmm.. i guess this is what you get if you have a screwed up sleeping time and a screwed up body alarm clock.

i'm kinda excited for tomorrow. informal meeting, formal photoshoot, spring clean the clubroom, possible movie with hokkien ppl, and then sentosa on sunday. =D

AGM is coming soon. wuu..

Ay09/10 oei!

Thanks!

2009-05-21T22:22:00.004+08:00

to those who voted for me. I really appreciate it. Now it all boils down to tomorrow's results, though 3/4 the time I'm feeling damn worried for myself should I even get in. How do I survive the commitment, and how do I make time for my friends. Blah. I guess, if I survived CO, I can survive this, only slightly tougher. Good luck to all running!

Speaking of results, I'm quite surprised at the results for American idol 8. I can think of a lot of reasons why the results are like that, but still, aiyaaaaaa..

I'm still struggling with school work. I know nuts about Insurances and its process, and I still have investment on stocks to do. Weee.. I'm lacking behind. T-T

BDSians came to visit IIT school yesterday, and I was one of the alumnus sharing, together with Gerald and Tekai. There wasn't much for us to say, cos we weren't really prepared. So, nothing special. Anyway, I drove to school yesterday, COMPLETLY FORGOTTEN that the graduation ceremony was going on. The moment I reached school, I realized, there wasn't any available lots!!! ohwhatthehell.. I ended up parking at Business, along the side of the road, like what others did. Went back to park it in a proper lot just before lunch.

the door knob fell on my mum's feet. ow..

We are the world~

2009-05-17T23:58:00.000+08:00

Undeniably the BEST worst cover ever..

like whuttt?

Microsofties.

2009-05-17T00:59:00.002+08:00

Met up with the MS gang, at the usual bedok 85. I'm glad i made it, haven't really met them for some time. Bonnie looked really different. I almost couldn't recognize her. Had the usual laugh here and there, it's just too bad Amanda wasn't here. It could have been better.. Thank Wen Guang for the lift as usual.

School work is a chore. I have yet to start on my banking assignment. I have no idea how the process for insurances and investments work, so, I have no clue on how to begin my assignment. yay!

vote vote vote!

JING YI FOR IITSC MAIN COMM! =)

Elections

2009-05-13T00:09:00.003+08:00

Yup, I've signed the deal.

Vote for me!

more campaigning here soon.

decision!

2009-05-09T21:12:00.002+08:00

Ok, I've made up my mind. I shall run for IITSC main committee. Despite my phobia from last AY's election, I shall still go for it. Same thing applies, I won't go emo if I don't get in. I'm sure it'll still be fun either way. I will run for main comm, and with me around, I can make IITSC the best consituent club AGAIN! (hahaha! as if) but ya la, last year liao, leave TP with a bang! (i hope). I'll go for it! Vote for me ok?

Yay! I leveled up!

I kinda like my notice board now. I cleared all the rubbish that didn't belong to me. So I developed my photos from my Rainbow V ultra wide and slim, and I pinned them on my board! The camera rocks manxz.. It's imba..

Shiatxz, I haven't practice my erhu..

great.

2009-05-09T01:01:00.002+08:00

So, Mas Selamat that clown, has finally been caught, after more than ONE YEAR! Like what?

He even managed to make himself float all the way to JB? With his improvised float? Last I recalled, the security at at the waters from the coast guards were quite tight. We were even closely watched at Changi. How the heck was he able to float across the causeway? Coast guards sleeping is it? Macam so easy to float across. I want to try also, kayak there difficult enough, but to float? Not scared big fish bite your backside ah?

Oh crap, my booties are at changi, and I'm going to kallang to paddle. woops, I told Dharma I'm going there tomorrow to get it back. Looks like he's gonna have to hold it for me longer.

I aspire to be Olympic Gold medalist for Kayak k1 women Slalom sial.. Be the only Singaporean representative to join that event, just like Togo. Go there as underdog, and come back as god. Hoho.. Now my dream would be one step nearer, only if stupid sports council would build one man made river for me, like the ones in china and aussie.

HAHA! as if that's gonna happen..

photo trip

2009-05-06T23:01:00.004+08:00

I had a mini photo trip with Yining today. Great chance for me to finish up my film. So I braved the hot sun (actually no, my mum gave me a lift on her way out), went straight to her place to borrow her bike. The next thing we knew, we were fighting our lives to cycle uphill against the wind. It was windy, very windy, so windy that I felt a resistance in every paddle I made on the bike. With our energy sucked out from all the paddling against the wind, we found ourselves at Starbucks.

And we saw Vincent Ng. The Wushu master. He drives a C-class wor! *envies..

Gone with the wind, we took photos at various spots. As mad as it sounds, we even tried taking photos while cycling. Like what the heck? We couldn't care less for the unfortunate souls infront of us, who could have just crashed into us anytime. Was quite an experience, all the emptiness at the park, the wind, the sun, pure awesomness.

I think a mosquito bit my eyelid while I was having a nap on the floor, yes the floor.

Random switch of topic, how's the Swine been treating you guys? The school's claimed to be stricter on temperature taking, but it doesn't feel any stricter to me. We're not fined for not bringing our thermometer, we can still roam about the school without our sticker. Don't get me wrong, I'm not not against the fine, just that I feel the school should be more stringent in what they hope to achieve. By providing temperature check booths, do you think students like me would bother purchasing a thermometer? I'm 100% Singaporean, mind you. I go for free stuff as well.

For starters, the stupid school can like install the temperature scanning thing like what the airports or where ever are doing. Engineering school has one, why can't ITAS? So much for being IIT school, we're still using some forehead thermometer thing. Some of my friends can still think it's hightech enough to use infrared scanners to record our temperature. pfft~

Makes me wonder AGAIN, why we're paying so much school fees for.

But it's a good thing that Singapore's making the swine's flu such a big deal. It's because of our/their "kiasi-ness", that makes Singapore still relatively safe. Hooray for Mr. Kiasu and Kiasi!

Oh, I'm quite bummed out that Heroes Volume 4 has ended already. God knows when volume 5 will be released. =(

boring...

2009-05-06T00:09:00.002+08:00

"saturday night, we look alright, we're going out... boring."

HAHA! classic.. latest craze, especially to my sister..

I don't really get the idea of singing like ever so slutty. like, ok, i was expecting something more from the scene and tune. and yet, they end the sentence with "boring". wtf? it's like saying marijuana, cocaine and heroine is as boring as this MV.

go and die..

verbal diarrhea

2009-05-05T22:06:00.002+08:00

Strangely, I aspire to blog like so many bloggers out there.

No, not daily and chronological rants about how my already boring life is. But on relevant and useful topics which I've experienced in a day. Like, political yet non-political issues. HAHA! I've no idea what I'm trying to state here.

I want to use proper English to express my words, I want to write proper sentences. My English is already as bad as it is. Which reminds me, I've not been writing in Chinese, I should include more of that as well. Point is, it's time for me to write something refreshing. Something constructive. Blah..

Though, writing with Singlish once in a while is like detoxing.

lazy lazy lazy

2009-05-04T22:16:00.002+08:00

the long holiday over the weekend doesn't feel any different for me. it's nothing special at all, judging from my very nice time-table. 8)

oh, i've one more day to cover for the cambodia trip, day 7.. but i'm not going to talk about it anyway, cos i'm LAZY!! it's all temples, angkor wat and etc.. very hot day indeed.. day 8, coming home day, nothing special also, cos the day ended really early.. one thing interesting, we were nearly stuck at the airport cos majority of our names weren't inside the booking list. gosh darn it.. we could have one more day of shopping.. lol. some of us from my group were silently happy.. hahaha. especially someone who wished he could stay forever.. hoho.. ok that's about it for cambodia.

kayaking on saturday, turned out to be fulfilling. mainly because i managed to do another roll ONCE. ah well.. am looking for facilities which provide free boats and coaching. so i can practice. nevermind the distance.. as long as its free. =) i'm a singaporean lah.. got lobang tell me..

school again tomorrow.. zzzz..

Showers with Thunder with Gusty Wind.

2009-05-03T02:25:00.001+08:00

random stuff.. you dont get the see this information on the weather forecast everyday..

cambodia day 6

2009-04-29T23:49:00.001+08:00

sorry for being missing.. am "busy" occupying myself with school work. nothing heavy yet, but yeah.. continue with my cambodia trip!

five hour ride on the bus to siam reap. zzz.. this was one of the stop overs. kids selling fruits came running towards us with the spider.. walaooxzxzxzz.. i have this thing about spiders which i dont like. and they just like put in on me.. luckily the spider was like, in a coma of some sort. didnt really move much, they also cut the fangs away, so it wouldnt bite. gross man..

we ate crickets! cool man.. hahaha.. it doesn't taste that bad actually. it has the seaweed aftertaste, but i think its just the oil that gives it the taste. crispy stuff.

some of the guys ate spiders. i only ate the leg, cos i didnt dare to eat the body. like i said, i hate spiders.. lunch that day was bad.. dinner was ok..

i think we went to the night market that night, no pictures on that one.. bought some stuff there.. blah... once again, no time to shop..

cambodia day 5

2009-04-25T16:51:00.002+08:00

we had to wake up super early to attend this closing ceremony which was highly boring stuff. i didnt understand a single thing.. and i think i fell asleep 100 times, and mind you, i'm not the only one.

visit to some temple. quite interesting place..

genecidal museum and killing fields.. i won't go into much detail about this place. its just a very sad place to be in. dont feel like talking about it..

this is the royal palace of cambodia. the king was there on that day, but we weren't privileged enough to meet him.

random stopover at somewhere i'm not sure of. we took like millions of jumpshots and i'm not really sure why. dinner that day was bad. like eew..

COMMITMENT.

2009-04-23T01:23:00.004+08:00

"Those that dare to venture experience the greatest rewards."

8) i saw this motivational poster at some poster shop in roxy square. gonna go check out the price next time, and hopefully get this up on my wall.. =)

PS: happy 20th birthday CK!

cambodia day 4

2009-04-22T16:13:00.002+08:00

we went back to the school on the fourth day, and they brought us to this place nearby to have some coconut and sugarcane juice.

we then learnt some of their language. well, i listened mainly because i wanted to know how to bargain. hahahaha..

he drew that.. look at my photobucket to see the picture clearly.

they cooked their own home food for us! it was nice.. really nice..

and so, this ended our stay at the school.. it was really sad to leave.. but we had to anyway.. we dragged and dragged and dragged, until i think the bus uncle god impatient. lol..

it was singapore night. so dinner was at the intercontinental hotel phnom penh. wasnt too impressed with the food. -..- we were there relatively early, so we had a couple of rouds of cam whoring session even after the dinner. i shall be nice and spare you the photos. hahaha..

lomo rainbow v and the clones.

2009-04-21T13:02:00.002+08:00

ah dang. i'm stuck in school, with nothing to do. lectures from 9-11am, and now i have a 3 hour break before my lab at 2pm. zzz. rotting really.. some interesting stuff here. a few days ago, i bought a Lomo Rainbow V together with yining. it's a good buy, from all the market research i've gathered. anyway, just to share with you. below is the camera we bought. which should be arriving today..

as you know, there are always imitations in the market. Fake LV, fake iPhone what have you. so it's no reason why there shouldn't be the case for cameras. but i dont think we should call them fake cameras, cos they do work in a way. better or not. it's probably from a different country/supplier of some sort. Rainbow V is a clone of the Vivitar ultra wide & slim. it's an exact clone. just that the colours and feel is different.

Popeye's mint cyan is yet another clone of the vivitar. there's just too many out there. one clone after another. it's too difficult to keep track. i can't wait for the camera to arrive. i've seen some of the pictures of users who sampled it. looks great.

cambodia day 3

2009-04-21T00:05:00.003+08:00

day 3 was rainy at cambodia. it's quite strange actually. during the day, it's scorching hot, but it always rains at night. hmm.. we were stuck on the bus doing nothing but play cards for 2 hours, just because of the rain. we had to wait for someone to pass us the bucket of paint.

some mosquito outside the bus. which reminds me, the mosquitoes there are HUGE! but they rarely bite, at least for me. maybe it's because i keep slapping them. i'm like the mosquito hunter on the bus. chloe the vegetarian too kills mosquitoes. coolness..

we were back at sa ang high school again. this time they thought us their traditional cambodian dance, which were all veryyy lonnnggggg...

we then did our work! we were supposed to paint the doors and windows at the school. so we started cleaning everything first.

then carried on to paint after cleaning. i think we did a pretty good job in painting. ah well, we had fun..

dinner was hot pot yo! but it wasn't buffet, it was set meal. so anything u want after that is charged to your own pocket. we were all still hungry. -.-

it was playing more cards on the bus after dinner. we went back to the hotel, and then decided to do more shopping after that. even though it rained buckets. we braved the rain, and took tuk tuks there. haha. anything for shopping..

cambodia day 2

2009-04-19T14:59:00.002+08:00

day 2 at cambodia, was visiting Sa Ang High School.

I cant believe they actually stood in line to welcome us there. like so pai seh can.. we were hoping they dont do this, but it happened..=..=

we thought them some of our games, and they thought us one of theirs, which by the way, is a killer.. =..=

look at the monkey bar. its imba can.. super scary.. but the teacher mentioned that the students can actually climb it. oh my goodness..

and this boy is super cute. u can see him around the school, and everyone just started to play with him. he just stuck his face into the camera, and wasn't too bothered by the flash.

one of the nicer shots i took from the bus.

that's about it for day 2. the students at the school were great. you can't ask for a better hospitality which was given to us.

Cambodia Day 1

2009-04-18T02:28:00.002+08:00

LONG OVERDUE! very very back log. haven't really found the time to talk about the trip, all i could do was just post the slide show. now that i'm back from camp, i can talk about it. like yay! i'll probably split it into 8 or more posts though.

we took a plane to phnom penh via siem reap.

we were then brought to our hotel to check in shortly after arriving in phnom penh. the hotel is called Asia Hotel, and was quite near this shopping center which quite a number of us went crazy over. the moment we saw the hotel, we all felt as if we got conned by the school. lol, cos someone mentioned to us that it was a good hotel, so we could rest more after a day's work. end up it looks more like some sleazy hotel only better. it's acceptable for me la. but the drawback was there wasn't any flask for us to boil water. there's a KFC just at the lobby man.. we went there almost every night. i miss the cheese wedges like siao..

we were then brought to this singaporean apparel factory. it was a sunday, so it wasn't operating. and when it's not operating, there's no ventilation let alone air conditioning. so it was super stuffy inside. Ee kiat was like wet totally. as if someone poured water over him.

we were then brought to this market, which we all felt it was a waste of time cos nothing there suited us. it was mostly appliances and other misc stuff. to make it worst, it was super stuffy.

we then went to the really cool shopping mall near our hotel after that. but we didn't really have the time to shop on our own. we were there merely to buy mineral water cos it's not safe for us to drink from the taps there. so it's sort of a grocery shopping night.

that's it for day 1. i'll continue day 2 and camp stuff when i'm free. time to go sleep now.

sleepy sleepy head.

2009-04-15T16:51:00.003+08:00

am slacking in the log room now. jaga-ing the stuff while the rest are at sports hall doing the mass dance thing. will probably have to go over when berlinda locks up the room. zz.

am craving for tom yum bowl noodles. maybe i'll have some while at sports hall. 8)

its damn freaking cold now. stupid school air con. cold in the afternoon, FREAKING HOT AT NIGHT! the aircon was practically NOT ON when i was trying my best to sleep.. i think i was the first to lie down out of all the other loggers. too tired cos i kayaked in the morning.. zzz..

ah well.. i've been sleeping the whole day today. like the more i sleep the more i feel sleepy. the problem with log. we do things at night, and we're relatively free in the day. other than some ad hoc stuff.

meow.

Sunday

2009-04-12T01:22:00.000+08:00

What a Sunday!

It's quite rare for me to wake up as early as 9am in the morning on a Sunday. On a usual mode, I'll probably be up by 11am, to prepare myself for Erhu lessons. Today was a bit different. My mum woke me up, asking if I wanted to tag along while my dad wanted to look for something, somewhere near the esplanade. Obviously, not to jeopardize my sleep, I said no. Which then followed on by an immediate response, "then you'll have to go for lessons yourself!". hahaha, I woke up at that instance man. LOL. I'm lazy, what can you do about it?

So we ended up at padang area. My dad ended up watching some 3 people doing their taichi thing. =.= boring stuff yeah. So we went to amoy street for lor mee, which was disappointing, according to my dad of course. I'm not a fan of lor mee, so I don't really know what's good and what's not good.

Headed for lessons next. But before that, my teacher told me that he'll be late, so I ended up roaming around Popular, looking for the book that Oprah picked for the book club! I almost gave up looking for it when tadah! it was just there, at the bottom of the shelf. I picked up the sample copy, and read a page of it. Seems nice. I read the reviews at the back, and it was all good. No wonder Oprah picked it. I'm just hoping I would commit myself to finish the book, which hopefully would be the first book I finish reading. HAHA!

The Story of Edgar Sawtelle. Go pick a copy up for yourself if you're interested to know why Oprah picked it as book of the summer. I was curious so I myself got it without any hesitation. I felt quite "wow" to myself the moment I got the book, when was the last time I actually bought a book?

blah. Went walking around the new mall at bugis, the iluma. It's disappointing man. The interior design is just wrong. The usage of space is so weird. They could have used most of the empty space to make up for more shops. Instead, making such a big area, with small shops, ends up with an empty feel. It's too airy, and probably echoes when nobody's around. Oh and the elevator, whuttt? First level all the way up to the fourth level? There's no other way up except the lift! You'll have to make rounds to come down just because of that particular long stretch. Ultimate failure I must say.

meh..

2009-04-12T00:37:00.002+08:00

f you for not looking at the road, f you for not giving way, f you for not stopping, f you for nearly causing an accident, f you for honking at me as though it was my fault. go and die..

we are the world

2009-04-11T01:27:00.002+08:00

We are the world, we are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So lets start giving

There's a choice were making
Were saving our own lives
Its true well make a better day
Just you and me

KELONGGG!!!

2009-04-10T00:03:00.004+08:00

ANOOP SHOULD BE OUT CAN! he's so forgettable and boringggg! NAAAAAHHHH BEEIIIIIIIII...

but my prediction was spot on.. 8) simon was being an ass as usual.. the others don't usually have a say in whether the contestant should be in or out. why is he always the one making the decision?!! i could tell the girls loved scott's performance. it was great in fact. but aiya.. simon has the foresights. so, whatever.. goodbyeee scott. you will be missed.. bring out your punk side once and for all!

anyway i promised a fun post! and here it is. i've gathered some thoughts about this season's AI. maybe u feel the same way as i do. but i'm gonna share it anyways. first things first, michael buble vs. matt giraud.

omgggggg.. both of them can sing bluesy songs, what more can i say?! even matt's expressions is so similar to michael's. youtube them. and see it yourself.. next up, kelly clarkson vs. allison iraheta

ok maybe not THAT alike, but allison is really like a mini kelly. her powerful voice and all, and at certain angles, she really looked like young kelly.. weird season 8 huh..

i did this similar-comparison-between-famous-and-budding-famous kinda thing for AI7 too. the one with jason castro and john travolta.. whom btw is super alike! my findings this season 8 somehow matches randy jackson's thoughts as well. what can i say? great minds think alike. maybe i can like wear tights and play the electric bass with my hidden talent soon. hoho.

OL refresh today was blah.. blah blah blah.. zzz.. dinner was shiok.. :P

AND I DROVE THE CAR OUT THE WHOLE DAY!! WAHAHAHA!! i find it quite strange, that my mum and dad allowed me to drive the car to school today.. hmmm.. but WHO CARES?! woo~ when there's once, there will be many more to come.. wahahahaha..

ps: this is just for fun, adam lambert vs. squall from FF8. LOL

voila!

2009-04-09T01:46:00.002+08:00

as promised! enjoy~

apologies

2009-04-08T23:16:00.002+08:00

i remember mentioning something about posting about my Cambodia trip at a certain date. i apologize that it has not yet been fulfilled due to the fact that it is still undergoing the uploading process at photobucket. over 600 possible 700 pictures in total. no wonder it's taking such a long time. but i promise to link up the entire album here once it's done! who knows? i might just pick out a few memorable moments to blog about. heh..

american idol tonight was great.. it got kinda boring in the middle.. but the last few was great!! Matt Giraud was awesome. He has finally found himself, the old and amazing him! everyone else was great.. Please don't flood my board if you feel I'm wrong, but i feel Anoop will be the next one out, if not the bottom 3 would be lil' rounds, scott and anoop. oh well.. this is based on how i found their performances and what i gathered from the judges' comments.

i'm gonna like write a post on idol real soon. like some weird findings by yours truly about the contestants. heheh.. it'll be a fun post. i do this almost every year.

welcome a new change!

2009-04-07T00:58:00.002+08:00

yep, let us all welcome a new change to my skin. i've FINALLY found a simple design i like. wordpress skins are nice, but i'm too lazy to figure out how to make them blogger compatible. thanks to whoever made this skin..

this skin is useful man.. with the big space and all.. heh heh.. i dont need to resize my pictures from now on.. >:) PICTURE HEAVY POSTS WILL KILL U! MUAHAHAHA!!

other than that, i'm currently uploading the cambodia pictures on my photbucket now. tonnes of them to be loaded. so i'll prolly start posting about them tomorrow.. yeah..

side note, twitter is rather amazing. i still dont get why anybody would want to update someone every few minutes or at any random point of time.. i must study it more, then maybe i can understand why.

guess who's back?

2009-04-05T21:17:00.003+08:00

back again..

yup, i'm back! cambodia's was great. though i must say, there wasn't enough shopping time for us. ROAR!

no pictures at the moment. they're still with soon chye.. so, yeah.

its nice to be back.

P/S: i almost couldn't make it back here due to some cock up with the booking of tickets. tsk..

wish you were here!

2009-04-02T00:43:00.003+08:00

greetings from cambodia!

everything's great here! the people.. the weather.. the food is alright.. but i hate the traffic.

the high school students were great. today was the last day we spent in the school out of 3 days. it was sad to leave, but we had no choice. we bonded so much just these 3 days. everyone here is so generous. so hospitable..

and i realised, singaporeans are nothing compared to these people. we can only paper chase, but the locals here knows everything and anything! i'm so envious. humble and all..

they gave us gifts as token of appreciation/ souvenir. they all gave it individually. makes me feel so guilty not preparing more than enough, and instead buying bulks to give the school.. zzz. but the trip so far is damn worth it. i'm not regretting as yet..

i'm turning vegetarian soon, cos every meal here has more vege than meat. lol. but kang kong ftw!

i'm enjoying myself here. the food is getting better and better each day. had hotpot last night, and formal dinner earlier on at the intercontinental hotel cambodia. shiok to the max. but the food wasnt so impressive as it sounded for intercontinental. ah well..

overdue

2009-03-25T20:17:00.002+08:00

this is a long overdue post. lol. random one, but definitely will fill in one what happened since the last post.

Linda's 22nd birthday! Almost a full group again.. this time u gotta thank tekai and kj for not turning up.. we then took a stroll at the esplanade. it was drizzling but we couldn't care less, as the freebie from nokia was much more interesting. LOL!! we all got a landyard from the nokia roadshow.

i then tested out my phone's camera capabilities. quite impressive i must say for a 3.2 megapixel camera. *random sidetrack: SPEAKING OF CAMERAS! I GOT MY NEW CAMERA NAO. IT'S FTW! goodbyeee 790SW, u'll be missed.. hello 1050SW! u're my new bff from now on. imma take good care of euu nao on!

business SL camp nightwalk was great. really great. or at least i enjoyed it a lot.. it was different from what i've experienced, mainly because nobody there knows me. so i didn't get the "this must be jingyi" reaction. it's quite refreshing though it was darn tiring.. following pictures are not for the weak hearted, though i have to admit, some look a bit scary yet funny. ah heck.

left is kok peng, right is des. kokpeng so cuuuteee righttttt? LOL especially the way he smiles and the 2 red dots on his face is darrrrrnnnn funnyyyy.. des wanted his face to look like 白斩鸡, so that's what he got. LOL..

hello!

left is michelle, right is irving..

this is jolene the anyhow dancing partner. i kinda like my hair on this picture. LOL.. out of bed look..

hmm what else is there to write? ah well, cambodia is coming soon! till the day before that, i'm gonna go off..

loves \m/ xoxo

ok, so i've ended my 2 days job at the Artzone. an art school for kids to express their creativity. it was fun but no doubt tiring. handling kids with dangerous paint, even to disciplining them. blah.. and they can paint for nuts. i had paint all over my hands just helping the younger ones support their artwork. zzz.

"wynthia, can u tell me what's after 100?"
"hundred-ty 1!"

hahaha they're damn cute i tellew.. but there were some who were primary 4 and up, so they're quite capable of talking back, which i hate a lot. -.-

teacher can u help me with this and that? teacher i need more paint! teacher i need to go toilet! teacher i need to wash hands! teacher can i have that snack? teacher i need a drink!

i swear man. i think i went to the toilet a few hundred times in the past 2 days. zzz plus i had to help them press the taps, cos some cannot reach and i had to carry them also. some were heavy.. zz..

the consolation of working there is that, you're too busy to feel bored. we're more of baby sitters or some sort of child care centre.. but doing this once in a while is really fun! i gotta thank aunty margaret for this job. they're quite creative in what they're teaching though, they taught the kids on how to make trophies with recycled bottles. but i had to do major repair works on all of them just incase they go home crying on how ugly they are. -.-

oh and i came across some nice names the kids have. lol. aidan, which i think would look better if it's spelled aaden. ah well..

no photos today. i'm lazy to upload them from my phone.

randome sidetrack. i came across this video from a friend's blog. i think its brilliant. no doubt one of the better short films i've seen. take a look and tell me what u think!

2009-03-16T01:04:00.000+08:00

am feeling a wee bit emo about not being able to attend Coldplay's concert. yeah, one of the greatest bands of all time man.. i'm sure it'll be hell of a fun.. the thought of paying to go watch was strike off immediately cos i was so broke at the time. blah. i still owe my mum money. +(

anyhow. i can't wait for cambodia. i still can't access the GC page in ole, which is a problem cos i missed more than half of the meeting, and i dont really know what they talked about. blah..

today is a boring rainy day. i believe i woke up somewhere around 1-2pm. heheh.. c'mon, u can't resist sleeping when the weather is rainy right, that was what happened.. my body alarm clock responded to the weather, and told me to continue sleeping. hahaha.

oh i just remembered. results were out last week. i did ok i guess, quite surprised that i passed a particular subject. lol. but i'm quite pissed with one of the grades i got for another particular subject. wtfffffff.. GPA dropped once again. quite expected cos PBL FREAKING SUCKS! block teaching can kill you man. anyway, i'm still quite thankful i'm still at the 2 range.

kayaking tomorrow. i can't wait!

try saying "Bob Loblaw's Law Blog." real fast! it's fun!

dedicated to OLTC

2009-03-15T20:47:00.002+08:00

yes, this post shall be dedicated to OLTC. there's tonnes of pictures to choose from, about 1.5k worth of pictures courtesy of Mr. James, our cameraman.

first things first, LOG COM KAN PUA ZAI OK! let me show u why..

this is us, log com warriors minus christine, who later came back to join us after her lessons.

ok i can't really remember what we were doing, but this was during final clash moments before we, subcoms, were made to move out THANKS to the hockey players.

us subcoms locking on zhikiat. LOL. we all chionged to attack zk. damn funny. we all got 默契 (mo qi) lor..

taken before nightwalk began. Engineering block corridor yo. we is zai. 8) i hope we get the same location again. so i can use my super duper zai move yet again to scare those innocent freshies. PAY BACK TIME YO! no pictures taken during the nightwalk. it is taboo. it was said that someone back then, took a picture during nightwalk, and some "thing" was candided in the photo. which then came nearer and nearer in the picture each time they looked at it. freaked everyone out, nobody dared to do such stupid things again.

ahh. there's too much pictures to put here! u can just go to the following links to look at what things were like during camp!
my side: LINK!
james' side: LINK!
nic soon's side: LINK!

one of the best moments were nightwalk, night performance, and the ever so nice bbq dinner. shiiook~ i guess the only way i can convey the full message on how much fun OLTC was, is just to let u look at the pictures. have fun man. there's a lot there for you.

anyway random picture of the day!

taken at the bbq dinner. cool right?! this is damn good charcoal. 1 small box can last u the whole night. i like the flaming effect on this picture. turned out nicer than i thought it would. commercial camera also good ok (looks at tekai).. LOL.

Note, this information is very very useful for those who does water sports. Be it kayaking or swimming or whatever, it's as useful if you are one who swims occasionally or even rarely.

read the news, its too long to copy and paste here, so here's the link.
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/24982210/from/ET/

how to determine a dry drowning situation?
Medical examiners determine that about 15 percent of drowning victims have experienced dry drowning. Whether it is a wet or dry drowning, death occurs due to lack of oxygen or cardiac arrest from a low body temperature. There are certain things that happen during dry drowning, which may be evident upon examination.

Step 1
Determine whether the victim entered a body of water forcefully from a high diving board or slid down a long steep slide. These two activities have been associated with dry drowning. The victim involuntarily suffocates by holding his breath or experiencing a muscle spasm of the larynx.

Step2

Decide if it's possible the victim's epiglottis was hit forcefully with droplets of water. This causes the flap to spasm and close over the windpipe. Once it is closed, water and air are unable to enter the lungs.

Step3

Notice whether someone is choking or gagging while they are in or around water. It may be an indication that water has hit the epiglottis and caused spasms. This can happen in the water or after leaving the water and usually occurs 6 to 10 minutes after the water hits the epiglottis.

Step4

Examine a dry drowning victim, and it may reveal water in the stomach but not in the lungs. Water in the lungs indicates the victim was alive before submersion, but the absence of water indicates dry drowning or death before drowning.

tips and warnings!
The larynx is located at the top of the trachea and consists of muscle, cartilage and the vocal cords. The epiglottis is the flap of cartilage at the base of the tongue, which covers the trachea (windpipe). This flap prevents food and liquids from entering the lungs through the trachea.

The treatment remains the same for all types of drowning, which is to oxygenate the lungs and get breathing started as soon as possible.

so kids, do be careful when you play with water ya? anyway, there is a difference between swallowing water and breathing in water. swallowing water will bring the water into your stomach and not your lungs, whereas breathing under water unknowingly is what causes dry drowning as the water will enter your lungs. point to note.

weird
