mypicgallery is a F*CKING piece of SHAT!

Sorry for being vulgar. s'cuse me but i'm highly distraught here. *takes a deep breathe. @#$%^&*(*&^%$# whatttt the hell do they they think they're doing!?!?! there they WERE telling people that they provide FREE hosting of pictures and they next moment when you log in, your account with all your lifetime of precious photos become 'EXPIRED'.

And when i frantically click 'restore my pictures', this disgusting message stares right back at me:
If you've received an "Account Expired" notification, please note that your images have not been lost. To maintain our operations it has been necessary to convert to a subscription-based service. You may restore service and recover your images by taking advantage of a free three-day trial subscription below. We greatly apologize if this causes you any inconvenience.

Important note: this is done without a warning. the least they could do was to send me an email to tell about the pending expiration so as to let me DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT, which is obviously what they DO NOT WANT US TO DO.

<insert all synonyms for 'f*cking piece of shat>

You need hellava apology to appease my buaysong-ness. you are forcing me to squeeze out my hard-saved $$$ to restore my own pictures back?!? zhe shi she me shi jie???

Ladies and gentlemen boys and girls. i shall not say that they are deploying tricks to con us little people into subscribing to their services. neither am i saying that they are devious, calculating, crafty, crooked, deceitful, dishonorable, double-dealing, or scheming. i'm am not conveying a message that YOU SHOULDN'T ENCOURAGE SUCH DECEITFUL OPERATION TO CONTINUE.

I mean, unlimited bandwith and storage is good afterall. but for such a cheapo like me i think i shall stick to free hosting that provides you fantastic nitty gritty stuff like galleries all the same. and if i ever run out of storage space i could just create multiple accounts.... i mean give up one mudpie to pay for storage. =)


Side note: by the way i actually still store my pictures somewhere else lah. still not so bad. but what if i hadn't? *shudders

Randomly

1) Maybe Dumbledore is possessed. just like what they thought happened to Emily Rose. it must be that piece of thread they tie around his beard. hmmm.....

2) I've always noticed that asians living in the west have hair that is extra black and glossy. just like cho chang. she's so pretty. maybe cos all the angmos already have coloured hair and they wanna be different and retain their black. like how asians in asia have black hair and some colour their hair sorely to be different.

3) I totally have no recollection of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire the book that i've read years ago. nope not even the part where the reporter was supposed to be a bug. it again reminds me that i have amnesia. sorry.

4) My sister stepped on a snail. she says it feels crunchy.

5) I moved (myself and my laptop) home.

6) I'm blogging this at home with my lappie.

7) No i don't have wireless. apparently a few lucky dudes living near me has. so i erm... shared... erm... it doesn't make that dude pay more or run slower right?

8) But my room has no signal so i had to use this in the dining room/kitchen.

9) I'm kinda bored right now.

10) I miss you! youyouyouyouyouyouyouyou
youyouyouyouyouyouyouyouyouyouyouyou

No more exams! i think i shall start eating junk food again.
Note to my er zi: wahaha i don't need to blog what i study cos no need to study anymore! throw away econs!



Question: Why do sociologists want to differentiate between gender and sexuality? [?m]
I talked about: from the sociological point of view, sexuality is a biological concept determined on the basis of primary sex characteristics. gender has social consequences.

But in fact, it is SEX that is a biological concept determined on the basis of primary sex characteristics, according to the textbook. not sexuality. question: so is sexuality=sex??? weiguang says i'm wrong. he says sexuality is your sexual orientation, whether you wanna be straight or gay or whatever.


From www.dictionary.com, sexuality is

1. The condition of being characterized and distinguished by sex.
2. Concern with or interest in sexual activity.
3. Sexual character or potency.


If it is 1. The condition of being characterized and distinguished by sex. , then sexuality is The condition of being characterized and distinguished by a biological concept determined on the basis of primary sex characteristics. then i'm correct what! if you are male, society would expect you to be masculine but no you could be a sissy.

But if it is 2. Concern with or interest in sexual activity. do i write about how your level of interest in sexual activities differs from that of society's expectations? ewww....

So if it is 3. Sexual character or potency. , it matches with what weiguang said. but what you mean potency?? what is the socially normal level of potency? hur? no link!

Therefore i insist that i'm right ok. hmmph. but if i fail my sociaology paper you'll know why.



I recently cut my hair! with bangs. with a lot of bangs. ee ling says i look like chinadoll. hmmph she must be exaggerating. i thought i merely look a bit more geekish. chenchen says i look younger. i think she means more kiddish. gina.

Anyway people have been asking me this question a lot:" eh you cut your hair ah?" duh. but it's ok. i understand that people just wanna make conversation, so i often refrain from making wisecracks like:" no it dropped."

There was once i tried to make conversation with this guy from hall who shaved his head.

Me: eh you shaved ah?
Him: huh? no i didn't.
After 2 seconds.....
He touched his head...
Him: GASP! oh no i did!!!

Wahaha.... way to go i thought that was damn cute! =D

I am so DEPRIVED!!!

Of FOOD!!

Here i am studying for exams and i'm not allowed to eat chips/fries/chocolates/sweets/ICECREAM/cold drinks WHAT IS THIS???? how can??? no wonder i couldn't do well for my sociology paper today. i just couldn't remember all the important definitions and points. why differentiate between sexuality and gender? huh?!? i can't remember!! i've been deprived of FOOD that's why!!

I'm very sad you know. never in my life have i been so deprived of food.

That's all. i have got nothing else to say. no food i'm very stressed.


Oh no i've got something else to say. i'm hooked onto the ma-i-a-hi ma-i-a-haha song. there's this funny player in my head that keeps playing this song. *shakes brain violently.

Thus i can't get enough of this. it's what you see on the not-so-big plasma screen in mac's nowadays.

I haven't been updating my blog regularly lately. life for me these days has been

1) being sick
2) at home
3) playing with my nephews
4) being a ditzy little girl
5) studying for my finals


I wouldn't say 'mugging' for my finals. i haven't really been mugging. maybe's cos i'm sick and i'm not in the mood to mug. or maybe's cos i'm home and home has too many distractions like nephews and such. in any case... this is the first time that i'm not seriously mugging for finals. i'm seriously in trouble and since i'm aware of that i should seriously start mugging now. arghharghharghh.



Today's tuesdays and i'm back in hall. hopefully will be able to study more efficiently. =) oh but i always have this fear when i'm in my hostel room. i'm constantly worried that the ceiling fan will drop on my head. it's really a very relevant fear you know. the fan doesn't look 100% attached to the ceiling at all and as it spins it sways very slightly.

Remember we had ceiling fans too back in the days when we were in school? people always get quite worried that the fans will drop on their heads too, although it never happened. i remember an intelligent friend of mine used to say that if you are sitting directly below the fan you're safe cos if the fan really drops, it'll spin to somewhere else and drop there, and not directly below. and being as intelligent as she is, i used to feel very insured sitting directly below a swaying fan.

But in this case my room is so damn small, wherever it spins to i'll sure kena.



I recently encountered a person's blog which got my big brain ticking. she was wondering if her boyfriend still keeps in contact with his ex, whom she addresses as 'that bitch'. i thought woah what did she do to you. but she didn't really elaborate on that.

Assuming that his ex is just a regular ex, why wouldn't she want her boyfriend to contact her anymore?

How much does it reflect on a guy who decides to cut off all contacts with a girl whom he used to care and love deeply and vice versa?

A lot.... badly.

When i encounter such sad people around it makes me reflect upon myself.


Hmmm my entry today has quite a substantial length. makes up for the lag these days. and someone/s kept coming to my blog by searching this particular name: mingui. haha... and i always wonder if it's the man himself, looking to see what others are blogging about him.

Other prominent keywords that people have searched for in blogs, which led them to my blog: rag chair, christina kang, cheeguan, jianning, huatz, a poem for pearline, pride soundtrack, kent ridge, eguanas, kr e blk... and loads more.

On a last note, if you're interested in reading what others have to say about you in their blogs as well, you could go to a search engine, limit the search to 'blogspot.com' only (the most popular host for blogs) and search your name. alternatively, you could go technorati.com because apparently it'll only bring you results of blogs particularly. the most popular search engine that people use to find names on my blog would be technorati and msn search. yeah. go on.

Here's an addition to my ailment: EAR INFECTION. you know, that kind when the inside of your ear becomes red and it becomes blocked and you can't hear in a ear and you feel damn giddy like the world is spinning and you can't study even though your exams is DAYS AWAY.

That's how i'm feeling now. baH!



Anyway, i attended my cousin's wedding last sunday and made a few interesting observations:

1) I like white dresses, i really do.

2) Relatives gulping down the shark's fin in approximately 10 seconds before frantically helping themselves (and their children) to a second serving.

3) My uncle got tipsy and started to giggle like a shy boy.

4) A couple of men got far more than tipsy and started shouting some vulgarities about genitals. they were stumbling around the ballroom and trying to get into fights with anybody who tried to help them up. gosh this is how throw face can. this is probably your friend's/family's happiest day in his/her life and here you are making a fool of yourself and ruining their beautiful day! go settle your messed up life somewhere else and eat some worms dude. UNGLAM.

5) Weddings are always so sweet, no matter how simple they get... to declare that you wanna spend the rest of your life with the person you love more than yourself.............
i wanna get married too!!
ps. ahem i'm not implying anything ya... just in case.


I feel like eating sheare's nuggets now. opps. side track. sighs... i feel so deprived of good food!!! helP!! i'm sick of lousy kr food and swallowing pills and cough mixture.

Sorry for being kinda anti-social these days. sick means crankiness and lousy blogging as well as you can see from here.

Muacks x100 to pearline here! she's so sweet to accompany me all the way to ginza to visit the doctor! haha... i love pearline!

Muacks x100 to a certain pilot too. i love my pilot. :P

I'm sick AGAIN! i hate being sick. why am i always sick. whywhywhywhywhywhy... *thunder roars.

I've been fevering and coughing for the past few days and from experience, my cough would be following me for quite some time. damnit!

Bah. thanks to the public holidays and pending end of the semester, i've only got 1 lesson the entire week! ain't that cool? whee! slack shit!


Here's an update to the activities i've joined in school (hall, rather):
1) choir sectional leader
2) girls' soccer recreational team
3) hall production business executive (department not yet known)
4) KR volunteers committee

Not a lot, really. you should see what the others are up to. (think dance + choir + acapella + swimming + 2 other sports etc or touch rug + handball + soccer + tennis + block committee... whew.. pure admiration for them... oh and don't forget + studies)


I feel like talking about 'The Myth' all of a sudden. watched it quite sometime ago. i personally think that it's a damn lousy show. i hate the distortion of facts of history & glamorizing them into movies. at least you should do it tastefully. the Qing emperor's tomb suspended in some lousy cave by some funny stones with people living inside who drank the elixir or life? i mean, c'mon man.....

But nevertheless, i enjoyed the show thoroughly... cos i had good company! ;)
