hahas, talking abt colours..
http://library.thinkquest.org/C004179/significance.htm

If you wear red…
You are impulsive, excitable and energetic. You are ambitious and like things to happen quickly when you want them to do so. You like to be the best in everything you do. You may be a bit insensitive to the feelings of the other people, since you like to be the center of attraction.
Learn to be a good listener. Red means vital force, with your nervous activity urging you to achieve results and be successful. If you make a habit of wearing red it may indicate you place importance on sexual desire and eroticism. This energy can be best used in the form of creative endeavor, leadership development and expansion.
You are courageous and extroverted, but tend to become irritable and bad tempered if you do not get your own way. Learn to be patient. Maroon and brick reds show you are fun loving, but be careful not to become resentful and feel victimized by the others.

If you wear pink…
You have an affectionate, loving nature, which makes you sympathetic and understanding. You may lack willpower and show weakness when you cannot control affairs of the heart.
You need a great deal of support from others and can be childlike in behavior. You must learn to accept and love yourself. If you become more self-reliant you will attract and give out the feelings of warmth and love you desire.

If you wear orange, peach or apricot…
You are competent, self-oriented and impatient. You are also independent, an organizer and self-motivated. Orange is the colour of practicality and creativity. Your energy levels are high, and you are sometimes restless. You have a forceful will and tend to be active and competitive. You are also excitable and can seek domination over the others.
Bright orange and burnt orange can make you feel frustrated and blocked. Try wearing peach, which will direct your energy to the others in a more caring way.

If you wear yellow…
You have an interesting and stimulating personality. You like to be active and involved in whatever is going on. Lively and vital, you can cope well with life’s challenges.
Bright yellow represents spontaneity and communication. You are active, inspiring and like to investigate. There is a desire and hope of greater happiness, which implies some minor conflict in which release is needed. Yellow presses forward to the new, modern, the developing and uniformed, and drawn in ideas from the "higher mind".

If you wear green…
You are a cautious person and not inclined to trust others easily. You are an observer in life, but do not wished to get involved more than you have to. A quiet life suits you best. You are benevolent, humanistic and service-orientated.
If you wear blue-green you need a peaceful environment, wishing release from stress, and freedom from conflicts or disagreement. You take pains to control the situation and its problems by proceeding cautiously. You have sensitivity of feeling and a fine eye for detail. Try wearing pale yellow with your green to help you share yourself and develop an optimistic attitude.

If you wear light blue…
You are creative, perceptive and sensitive. You have a good imagination and practical approach to life. Your approach can be analytical and you are best advised to use your knowledge for problem solving. You like to do things in your own time and not be rushed. You need a secure and peaceful environment.

If you wear dark blue…
You are intelligent, self-reliant and have a great depth of feeling. You feel responsibility for others and enjoy decision-making. You need tranquility all around you and must be surrounded by tenderness, love and affection. Noisy people disturb you. You may suffer from mental stress owing to the lack of play and relaxation. Try wearing some blue-greens or greens to help your self-expression and improve your health.

If you wear violet…
Yours is a sensitive, compassionate nature so you can be easily imposed upon and should be careful to pick friends who are as sensitive as you are. To be happy, work where you feel needed. Try wearing lilac or magenta, a colour with more red in it. This will boost your self-confidence and provide your vulnerability with protection.

If you wear purple…
You are very intuitive and have deep feelings and high aspirations. You are interested in the best of everything, including your friends. Lesser mortals do not interest you or enter into your scheme of things except where necessary.
Watch that you do not become arrogant – try to make more time for listening. Orchid, grape or violet can make you feel imposed upon by others’ belief systems, rules and regulations. Be sensitive to your personal and spiritual needs. Try yoga or meditation to release mind blocks.

If you wear white…
White contains all the other colours in the spectrum, showing that you have a positive, well-balanced and optimistic personality. You are highly individualistic and a loner. You seek a simplified lifestyle free from outside pressures.
You have chosen a simple and pure colour, but one that reaches out for recognition. You are probably going through a transitional period with new ideas not yet taken form. Be open-minded and communicate, for with white all things are possible.

If you wear gray…
You are very much an individual. Many people may get the impression you are self-sufficient as you have excellent self-control and prefer to remain uninvolved. Those who wear gray have a tendency to isolate themselves, which can lead to loneliness. You may be passive because you feel stressed and overburdened.
You may need rest, relaxation and freedom from daily stress. Maybe you need a good break – take in the blue of the ocean or green of the countryside. People who wear gray are often those who make judgements and may be good critics. Those who lack judgement and struggle to form opinions should wear gray.

If you wear brown…
Brown clothing suggests an honest, down-to-earth person who likes a structured supported lifestyle. A lover of the best things life has to offer, you are a sensuous type, appreciating good food, drink and company. Brown is the colour of Mother Earth.
It is a protective colour, but you may be bottling up emotion or a secret that makes you retreat into your shell and fear the outside world; thus you feel protected by wearing brown or muddy colour. There is a desire to be emotionally secure and accepted by the outside world. You need to understand your self-worth and ward off narrow-mindedness.

If you wear black…You are strong-willed, opinionated and disciplined. You may be too inflexible and too independent. Watch out that these are not defense tactics. You may really lack confidence in yourself and your own ability to handle life efficiently. It may be you have a little way to go to maturity and are using black to cloak yourself while you discover your true identity.
Black represents renunciation – the ultimate surrender or relinquishment – and those who choose to wear black constantly want to renounce everything out of a stubborn protest. Wearing black on certain occasions shows you have control in yourself in order to communicate an authoritative image.


rach,pix pleeeaase :P


-love, jas.

As I think back to our time in NJ canoeing, the flashbacks are so real to me that it seems almost like a movie. A random yet focused movie about canoeing, the team, and everything intangible. There is this advertisement recently about joining the Navy or Army and they kept asking 'If your life is a movie, would it be a good movie?'. I guess mine would, because of all my teammates that are in it, the colours they splashed on my life, spiced things up. It would be a pretty good movie, really.

Peishan would be black because black is the balance, black is control and black is essential. Michelle would be white, because white is purity and white is serenity. Chiteng would be the red, because red is love and red is passion. Vanessa will be the silver, because silver is unique and silver is irreplaceable. Cindy would be the green, because green is mellow and green is good for me. Rachel would be maroon, because maroon is sensibility and maroon is different. Mindy will be yellow, because yellow is bright and yellow brings joy. Xintian would be purple, because purple is cool and purple is special. Shumin would be blue, because blue is sincere and blue is truthful. Jasmin would be orange, because orange is zest and orange is explosive(haha). Leepeng would be pink I guess, because pink is innocence and pink is bimbotic.

I love my team! :)


I think OUR movie is pretty colourful. hope everyone are having brilliant days... :D

When you start to think about the future, imagination is the key.

What will become of all of us?

peishan, keen on ntu accountancy, could be an accountant next time, earning big bucks and doing a 9-5 job(can YOU imagine that?!). Or who knows, she might just become the hottest bartender in Singapore where she will be, earning big bucks as well. haha. :)

michelle,interested in nus architecture, may be an award winning architect in the future to come. michie, if you really become one, design a cultural centre that looks like an apple instead of a durian can? I don' really like durians.. but heck, she will be designing !

tsinli,applying nus medicine, could just be a cardiologist. next time when anyone of us(CHOY!) needs to see a doctor, we know who to turn to. Tsinli, you will charge us cheaper HOR. haha.

Jasmin siao, nus bioengineering, will be a.. erm... (what does a bioengineer do?) a cool bioegineer! okay i really dunno, but i guess she will be researching and inventing things that we can never understand. Or she may start her own business. A special service that offers to eat the pi of your bread, or finish up the soup of your noodle.. okay that sounds weird but jas is quite good at that.. haha.

Lp, ntu business school, will be a nu qiang ren next time! She will not be bully by stupid supervisor anymore.! She will set up her own company and after a few years, get her company listed, AND THEN SHE WILL BUY THE WHOLE CRYSTAL JADE COMPANY! lp, when that happens, u can make huiling n sharon do shift C until they puke :) or lp can get married after uni and become a lawyer's wife(bryce wants to be a lawyer). she can sit whole day at home or go out n buy stupid things while shopping. good life then =)

Shumin, Arts and social Science, will be a great CHINESE TEACHER! she will make all her students love chinese and ba hua(2) wen wen hua(4) fa yang guang da! Shumin will be telling all her students to study hard and be a useful person to the society next time. and if they try to bully her, she can show them her biceps(due to nj canoeing trng) and they will shut up. =D

Chiteng, Psychology, could be a (DUH) psychologist next time. When she start studying all about human behaviour... If LP is too stressed due to her expanding company, or tsinli is frustrated with funny patients, and shumin is tired of whacking students, they can all go and find chiteng for a talk! erm well is that what a psychologist do? ha im not sure!

VANESSA!, haha SAF scholar, will be an oustanding army girl. She will be an international relation superior supervisor. okay i made that up ba heck you get my drift. Then all the stupid army boys will have to salute her because she will be promoted until dunno wad dunno wad. then she will have a lot of stripes and stars on her uniform.. Or van can be the Da Wei Wang. you know, take part in that kind of competition where they eat A LOT, A LOT. she will thrash all the angmoh even though she is 1/12 their size.. hehheh!

okay for the rest i dunno what they are going to do. HAVEN HAVE ANY CHANCE TO TALK TO THEM. THEY ARE SO BUSY. I AM SO SAD! hahah

canoeing! 3:05 PM

Hey everyone, this is a short update regarding the dinner at Ding Tai Fung :)

That day, the 5 of us(me, ps, van, shumin, jasmin) went with some of the guys to meet Mr Yong for the treat at Paragon. Sigh! What happened to the rest of you! I was actually looking forward to seeing some familiar faces but much to my dismay, there were only 4. But nonetheless, i was really glad to see Shumin, Ps, Jasmin AND VANESSA LIM PEI XIAN!

We had to order separately because there were too many people and it actually got quite confusing. My side ordered the most number of dishes, partially due to Jasmin's weird craving for sesame and the other part due to Jason sitting with us.
-_-"
I had my Xiao Long Bao! Ps had her Dou Miao. Den I shared a bowl of Chicken Ramen with Shumin. The soup is fantastic. We had pork rib rice, prawn dumpling, and more pork ribs. Haha.

It was nice listening to Mr yong talk about the team. He told us about Sean, showed us Sean's proposal for the team(CAPITAL PUNISHMENT! HAHA!). Then he was raving about how natalie's K1 is faster den Lina. And how constance is the fastest k1 rower now. And Joel being slower in k1 then Vivien.. I actually did feel like going back to row with them!

All in all it was a fun time. Just talking a lot, listening a lot. I just wished all of us were there.

I like seeing familiar faces, it makes me feel safe. :)
