Hello people...

I've no idea why my blog background is in such a condition but i've no time to go change it.. mayb during my hols...

ANYWAY BIG SHOUTOUT TO ONE AND ALL...
I haven't really really chated with anyone in particular, not even my family since i came, so pls don't feel left out.
Even KYENNE LEE and JAMIE NG came down and i feel like i didn't really talk to them much or my heart wasn't really here... There's like so much work to do, i feel deeply drowned in the pool but i can't die... How sad right?

Ok anyways i am sick of writing and essay, i'm gonna write about a dream...

I've got a repeated dream of people going on a scaffolding trolley-lift thing and then them falling off. Its really scary but yes i had the same dream. It started off as a picnic scene, at the playground downstairs of where i live in Singapore and we were enjoying ourselves when suddenly, someone close to me a guy (not sure who, cause i don't recognise the person) when on the scaffold, all of us were saying its dangerous, but he wanted to change or do something. The next thing i looked up and saw the scaffold swinging really violently with him smiling down at me. As if knowing what was going to happen next, even before anything happen i had this sinking deep down into the pit of my stomach feeling, i turned my back towards him and walked home and he came crashing down. I heard screams behind me and i heard the thud of his body but i walked back home to his room. Next scene was everybody crowding around the room in our own worlds and i was sooo devastated i couldn't cry nor speak, the feeling in that room was so heavy and i felt a hand on my shoulder, thinking it was my dad or something i turn around to face nothing! And somehow i knew that i was to follow something/someone/somebody and i walked all the way to where i bought the 2 ducks for him (i don't know why 2 ducks...) and they moved on the table. I knew i had to keep and take them with me and oh my god, i was about to cry but i woke up...

I've never had an entire dream that came to a complete end, but i felt really sad after that...

:(

Its been long since i updated.
US hasn't been treating me well...
i was sick after my LA trip and then for the first time in my life i got an eye infection.

Everything's all going away now, but i'm still cautious of my health.
Friends are fine...
Host-family even finer than before, I think they love us even more.
Got a new roomate...
(sigh....)
*I'm quite searchable on the internet comments shall be kept on msn, skype fb chat...

and then there's the 20 credits i so happily took after my first quarter of 12 credits and 2nd quarter of 5 credits! ULTRA BIG LEAP...
And i'm like drowning now thank you very much!

I actually secretly like math, but was never GOOD in it.
I tried real hard just to get a B3 for Os...
SO 5 years down the road, i'm learning trigo again
and guess what?
ZHENG DAIYAN IS SITTING THERE LIKE AN IDIOT NOT KNOWING THE ANSWER TO ANY OF THE BLOODY QUESTIONS!

God pls help me...I'm so dead seriously...
Teacher talks as if everybody just graduated from high school,
talked about CSC, SEC and COT like i know what the hell it meant,
i had to read up after school to understand.

Got a job with my hostfamily to tutor their kid,
and be a nanny, take him from school and send him to Kumon,
WAH!! America also got Kumon!!!

Not like as if i don't have the 10,000 readings frm psych and sociology classes.
and writtings from English class....
Hallellujah Daiyan is a NERD!!!!

Heylo from Frisco

ok being totally bored with a stalled car, this is what happens..

(:

Just felt the urge to update. Since silly me thought i was meeting at 5pm, got ready by 445pm sitting under the aircon and waiting till 510pm and realised i SAID TO MEET AT 6pm...

Ok anyways, my Summer stint in Singapore is coming to an end. Well i was super excited to get back. Realised that i've burst the budget cap set by my dad by alot, I'm wondering whether i'll even make it out of foothill. Grades are fairly ok, only my Statistics looks bad on my transcript now, so hopefully the other "As" would pull me up. (HAVE FAITH)

Met up with most of the people here, even managed to celebrate my birthday WOO~ I had fun but a bummer life is not suited for me, i so want to go back to school now. Alot of people are all over the world and mayb thats a good thing.

Well Singapore, it won't be 1 year later that i would get back again.

.

Can we wait upon the Lord patiently?

Join In with Praises...

If you are free on Friday and want to meet me, come join me and my friends for
Festival of Praise 2009.
Lemme know if you're coming :)

:)

All good things must come to an end...

Well i feel like its a next chapter of my life,
i'm done with blogging about daily rants or updates about my boring life...

Till i can find another reason to blog i will.
Mayb a photo-a-day of my life in Cali.
But otherwise i'm doing fine, thanks for your concerns.

Poll: So should i continue blogging or should i change it to something else?

BACK...

Whoo hoo ppl i've touched down and in am currently in Singapore.
I think travellers this are the things to look out for:

1) Time zone changes causes me to sleep ALOT
2) Time zone changes causes me to shit and fart alot (No I AM SERIOUS)
3) Mayb for once you bring back fungus and mayb can grow some mushrooms on your face.
4) Pls do not be alarmed but there's a big red patch on my face (be warned)

yup otherwise i'm all good, mom must have missed me,
she puts me on self quarrentine although i've been to CCK polyclinc,
Junction 8 and Skin Centre and in the bus....
Don't worry i feel perfectly fine, and won't go out till end of this week.
Except meeting Jams on 4th July, thats unavoidable sorry. Only a confirmed H1N1 testing would stop me, otherwise i'm meeting her!!!

Anyways the first ppl i met in the airport was my FAMILY and my cuzwuz, she was there to greet me too. Oh and my sis's bf. And boy did grandma not recognise me the nxt morning in the market, asked me who i am -_- (Am i that fat??!)

So i have decided to go on an exercise regime, immediately after my quarrentining days and when my fungus gets better, not that it will spread but i want it to heal faster...
Can't wait to meet all of you guys!
I've already met my 2 loves, Kinee and Juney...
My dad's two god-daughters...

I have to meet Lion in Singapore soon...Coming for him once i can drive the car out!

YAY!

I'm finally done with my Finals :)
The Lord is good and has provided for me throughout my stay here.
Daiyan hasn't really told u everything.
Daiyan is coming back for summer,
wanted to give surprise, but my mom,
my friends are just too happy that my surprise isn't that surprising...

God has also blessed me with a car,
yes my dear Kenneth i've driven myself around in the States.
Nothing to brag about, its a means of transportation here.
I don't feel ownership over my car,
instead i feel like its still my dad's which it is.

i was just watching some video clips and Singapore slang is so weird too me now,
i'm too used to hearing American accent...
I am still fully singlishfied so no, i won't try to impress any with any slang...
I AM A BLESSED CHILD :)

i am happy i am in America,
and i am happy i'm going back :)

Randomly, i feel like blogging about being conscious...
What am i consciously thinking all the time?
My words are too jumbled and thoughts too mixed, probably blog another time.
Its 3am and i need to drive my roomie to school later!
I'm heading off to slp, but soon i will be back in Sing, await for me dear friends.
I suddenly wanna meet my Tobys, my true pink, my late night partner, soap and ahnene and matthew, i'm so surprised u actually read my blog, the constant drop of messages by Mann, Sha, Hans, Nunus. And here and there my church mates, cell grp and really i just miss u guys
SOO SOO MUCH...
you can't imagine

In the Bay Area

Its almost end of spring and coming summer,
Days are getting longer.
Living in Singapore,
you only knew the sun starting to rise at 630am,
and the sun sets about 730pm.

Sometimes it gets pretty confusing,
i wake up every morning at 630am
and the sun is shining brightly into my room.
I don't even know what time is the sunrise without googling it.
5.50am it rises and around 8.30pm it sets.

Thats not all,
everything here is expensive,
food is the same price or slightly pricer than in singapore but,
i guess u forgot the 1.5 currency exchange rate behind that.
Food court??! never heard of, its all restaurants.

but some how or rather, i'm sinking into it.
I've learnt to save, i've learnt to enjoy the natural suburbaness of these place,
rather than the fast paced city life in Singapore.

Ironically i still yearn to go home when i saw those smses before i left the airport on 8th March 2009

WISE TOOTH

SO its a few more weeks to my finals... i'm scoring an average B no idea if its a plus or minus or coming C!!! AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH....
Its damn stressful,
not only that if you haven't updated yourself with FB,
I lost CHELLEY'S IPHONE,
i'm sorry!!!!

I went shopping at Santana Row,
and i BADLY WANTED TO PEE,
(if i didn't pee nothing would have happened)
so i went into bubba tea store, left things on table with friend,
took phone into toilet with me
cleaned the seat washed hands,
totally forgot the phone and went to buy bubble tea.
AND THEN I thought, OH YA CALL MY FRIEND,
thats when i realised my phone wasn't with me...

I've moved on from being UBER sad,
now i'm paranoid at losing my stuff,
i should make a checklist before and after i leave home SERIOUSLY

And also i'm running a fever,
i think my damned wisom tooth is the cause of it.
Please pray that it doesn't affect me to go tan tock seng for checkups when i'm back!!

:)

hello i'm not dead yet...

Just been very busy with school lately...
I've an essay due tomoro but ironically, i don't feel like writing there,
instead i feel like writing in my blog.

I've shifted in to my new place with a new housemate...
Our toaster went on fire,
i've cooked on our new stove,
been slping late and waking up at 630am EVERY MORNING,
including sats and suns,
HATES my bath FIXED TIMING,
am unable to wash my clothes tomoro because of a fixed day and timing to wash them...

Ah there's no place better than home :)
I'll be back soon just you wait..

Y swine flu is bad here...

Nurse: Yes how may i help you?

Dyan: I would like to see a doctor?

Nurse: You don't look sick...

Dyan: *stares blankly at here????*

Nurse: Ok what have you got?

Dyan: er flu?? common cold? fever?

Nurse: How do you know you got a flu?

Dyan: *even more speechless than before, the whole small office was just looking at her*
hello??!!! how do i know when i'm sick?? i have green snoot, i feel dizzy and i cough like crazy??!
(of coz i just stood there speechless)

Nurse: Well if you want i can take your temperature, but if you don't have a temperature you can leave.

Dyan: *utterly speechless at this point*
(waited for 10 mins and still no attention, left and went to take something frm somebody and came back)

Nurse: *waves for dyan to come over*

Dyan: sits and lets her take temperature
(*99.8 degrees fahrenheit)

Nurse: Oh you really do have fever!
*embarrassed at this point took a whole bunch of sinus pills and shove it in my face*
go home take a bunch of this will do bye!

Dyan:........

The good, the bad and the Ugly

OH MAN,
Like for the 3rd and hopefully the final time I AM MOVING!!!!
Packed my bags yet again, theres like tons of things that i own...
Moving to a place, where there's lots of rules,
not like my current host but its much bigger
and i'm going in with a roomie i'm more comfortable with
AND DEFINITELY CHEAPER!

Y my recent lack of updates,
1 reason, i think too many ppl are reading,
actually i don't even know who exactly reads any of my nonsense anymore
and 2 not enough time to blog.

3rdly I FELL SICK AGAIN,
i blame it on the Combos,
i had too much of it and too little water...
ONE FINE DAY, my damn bloody nose will get back on me!
i know i know, drink more water! i will i will...
i think becoz i took only 2 modules this quart, i'm not as stressed as my friends are.
but yea i'm still adjusting.
Friends here are pretty ok,
is it becoz of age or experience or...
I don't know, but sometimes they seem kinda weird,
NOT THAT I'M NOT WEIRD MYSELF,
but...

SO anyways, i'm getting myself a car,
I KNOW I DID SAY I WON'T GET,
but u don't know how inconvenient it gets,
waiting for buses almost 30 mins,
then there's also where i live, tts a problem, no street lamps,
you can't expect me to bring a torchlight out with me...
And anyways the bus don't operate till late like Spore.

I have to depend on nice friends to drive me around,
AND YOU KNOW HOW DYAN HATES DEPENDING ON PPL!
and then u have to see or feel their face and presence,
though i don't say it but that FEELS PRETTY DARN AWAKWARD AND DISTRESSING!
AHHHH yet at the same time, I know that i'm spending alot DADDY!
but i can't help it, really...

Many has asked y i don't have any more pictures?
I think my passion for photography has totally died,
I CAN'T TAKE ANY PHOTOS (coz i can't go anywhere) and i'm really sad tt my powershot died on me...
Mayb after i get my car i can leave my camera in there,
and there will be more snappy snappy...

LOVE ALL OF YOU BACK HOME!!!
YOU DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH I MISS YOU GUYS,
I WANNA GO BACK AND NOT COME BACK!
BUT I HAVE TO FINISH MY STUDIES...
AND ACTUALLY I LIKE MY FREEDOM.
AH ITS A LOVE-HATE RELATIONSHIP

LOVES

Food for thought!

My overseas experience,
I probably haven't talked much on it.
Other than the negative things i've said in the past,
actually its an experience i am blessed with.

SO whats it like here?
Basically living out on my own,
I definitely wouldn't want to send my kid overseas too early,
(actually depending on maturity level)
Its really an experience (THANKS PA!).
I think i can live independently now,
you wash up and look after yourself.

You take care of your own finances,
you are at your own defense and you kinda make the last decision.
(other than the money i now spent which is my dad's)
Which at the end of the day comes back to me who has to repay them...
SO SPEND WISELY!

Yes you are right,
most of the international students are wealthy,
and really, i probably am from a different world,
I come from NAFA, still an arts instituition.
VERY DIFFERENT!

Sum it all up, i like what i'm doing,
and i Hope it will get even better as the days pass...
If you can i urge you to take that step and experience something new,
and really its makes you grow up, whether you like it or not!

OKOK BACK TO STATS HOMEWORK!!!
