Hi, my name is Pei Ling, you can also call me Perlyn. I am 20 years old and horoscope aries.

By the way I am not tall, so don't mention it too much in front of me. If you are good in mathematics, don't ever try and count the number of pimples in my face.

I am super blur and am stubborn at times, and sometimes I may also seem to be rather quick-witted. I am mostly nice so don't get on my nerves too much. One bad thing about me is my sharp tongue, so try not to take to heart with everything I say.

I am a person who value friendship, I treasure all the times with my friends. If you can accept the way I am, I'm sure we can be really good friends!

AUTUMN WEAR AND BOOTS!


It's autumn here at my current location and one fine day (fri, 26th september) the girls decided to wear their boots and... pictures below!! (editing done by yanmin)






I like the group photos because everyone have different styles and all of us look really cool!
now for some personal shots!




I need to get some flat boots cause the heels are killing me! they are of the right size but due to the uneven road pavement in the school, it's extremely difficult to walk...
This week is China's golden week! and we have a week worth of holiday! WOOHOO!

UPDATES!


Yoz people! Can't think up any title for this post so this shall be some updates of my current life...

On Wednesday (24th september) We went to "Haji Lane" and "bugis parco" all "thanks" to junjie's '好介绍'. For your information, we like to name give some nicknames to some places which make us feel at home. And so far we have Sim Lim Square, Giant, Taka, Bugis street etc...

We went shopping straight after our classes...

My outfit of the day! i love my scarf! I'm going to buy more if I have the chance...

This is the "Haji Lane" and I think that maybe because it is a weekend and there are not many shops open yet...

and curses of all curses!!! My new bag handle broke! Well not exactly broke, cause the handle was made of two unconnected string, using a black cloth to cover over it and the sewn over... like what the hell! that area was covered nicely so I didn't see the workmanship... can only blame it to my own carelessness, did not check that area...

My broken handle bag... =( There are some people's stuff also got some damages... haiz...

That night, after a meal i ate this fruit....

Can you guess what is it??? Is it an apple or a pear??? Shall reveal the answer next time!

I hate it when the China people they like to ask us a question which make me feel like some animals in the zoo or an artifact in the museum for show. Conversation as follows:

Ah Tiongs: 你会说普通话吗?
me: 会啊...
Ah Tiongs: 哇,好厉害喔!

duh... make me feel as if they are looking down on us sia, but I know they don't have that intention but still, it makes me feel uncomfortable. Maybe thats the different way of how different people talk...

Btw, I am watching Singapore's F1 show on CCTV5 now!



Well, tomorrow's the actual race...

ITS TIME TO EMBRACE COLD WEATHER


Since I've arrived to Wuhan, everyday was like walking around in an freaking hot dessert. Not once has it rain since I've arrived. Well, maybe a little rain which came and disappeared as quick as lighting.

And Yesterday complained about the weather, the teacher say that it is already autumn now but the weather still strangely remain hot. The weather was unbearably hot, it hit about 32°C!

Just when I decided to wear a sleeveless top to class today, the temperature had became 26°C! Its like sudden change of the weather lor! But is super cooling outside now.


Super huge wind!!!




And the trees started to shed their leaves... You can see leaves all over in the campus...

Today's first lesson of the day was stupid.

1) we had to wear 鞋套 to cover our shoes before we can step into the computer lab. Its not like our shoes will infect their computer with virus lor! And they aren't free, they cost 20 cents yuen. Guess I had to buy them everytime i go to the computer lab for classes...


2) The computer screen is like being lain so backwards and I had to bent forward more to see.


3) My laptop is more advance than their computer. At least it is not Windows 2000 and no internet explorer 7.0 and the internet screen keeps disappearing...

The computer lab...

I mentioned 博雅园which we visited at least 4 times a week for our meals in the last post. This time, I had some pictures taken of our favourite restaurant!



I was starving today that i am unable to remind myself to take a picture before the food gets eaten... For your information, the restaurant don't serve half eaten food but this is how it looks like after we finished our meal.

Our every meal in the restaurant, be it in school or outside, we always eat as if we are having wedding dinner sia! I guess its better to eat food which we can swallow than eat some food that we are not used to and which taste we dislike.

Got to read 鲁迅's 祝福 for tomorrow's class!~

Loves,

Ling =)

SUNDAY IS A SHOPPING DAY!


睡到自然醒最棒! I love saturdays and sundays because I can wake up later than usual! But then... I still managed to wake up early at 9.30am and the noise i made in the morning sort of wake vivian up... We ate our breakfast and started to surf net.


After that, we meet for lunch at 1pm at our favourite 博雅园. I think we go to this resturant at least 4 times a week! It think is the only place in school which has edible food fit for Singaporean human to comsume and taste delicious at the same time...

After that we went to 老鼠街which is at near 汉口 for shopping! this are the following i bought!\

p/s: I know i ain't pretty so please don't pay too much attention on my face but on the things i bought. =)

Purple top with a Japanses doll! (25 yuen)

Bought a bag cause a bag was on the verge of spoiling... (55 yuen)

I like this top the moment i saw it and it suits me when i wore it... The sales girl was really nice, she automatically gave me a discount from 45 yuen to 35 yuen without me bargining.

My boots! (55 yuen)


Last but not least, a pair of blood red shoes for my sister. I know she has been wanting a pair of shoes of this colour for a long time already... (29 yuen) Nice right??

As Nan lao shi and Ray are going back to Singapore the next day, Nan lao shi invited everyone to his room and he even treat everyone with watermelon and a fruit call 香瓜 which I've not eaten before. It taste like the white section of the watermelon when you've eaten the flesh...

Photo with Nan lao shi!

That's all folks!

Loves,

I'VE SURVIVED A WEEK IN CHINA!!!


Yippees!!! I have survived and will continue to survive in Wuhan! I think Wuhan is an okay place, but I still prefer lovely Singapore... As I have not been blogging for nearly a week, i have a week worth of things to blog about!

MONDAY:

As it is a public holiday (mid-autumn festival), we had no school! as such, we decided to go shopping at 汉正街's 老鼠街... as there are about 10 people, we had to split into two groups to take cab. In the end, we got split up at two different areas... me, Vivian, Yanmin, Dylan, Debbie at 平安大厦and huiwen, junjie, wanyuan at 老鼠街, the correct place. And huiwen's group had to search for us the road idiot group....










We had our lunch at Ajisen and for every hundred dollars spent, you will get to receive this coupon and we got a total of 3 coupons. We scratched the silvery part with a coin and... we won 2o yuen... LOL!

TUESDAY:

It is our first day of school!


It has been a long while since i last saw a blackboard... The last time i saw it was when I was in Secondary 2, but after that the school changed all the boards to whiteboard...

This is how our class room seats look like...

My timetable!!And of cause, as you all know, its me and Vivian!


And after our classes, me and Vivian decided to wash our clothes using the washing machine in the hostel. Washing each pail of clothes cost 3 yuen.

The washing room...


Our clothes! But the Tees belong to Debbie and huiwen... But then we felt that using the washing machine, the clothes don't feel nice leh... so we decided that next time we washed our clothes, we shall hand wash them.

WEDNESDAY:

As class ended early on that day, we went shopping at 多福路at 汉正街... and we went to this 批发广场... but the clothes is still quite expensive and the culture here is that you had to haggle the price... that is one thing I am lousy in doing cause in Singapore you can't haggle until half the price...


And i bought the same top as Vivian! cause we both like the same top and it cost 70 yuen, original price is about 120yuen... In addition, I also bought a pair of black jeans for 70yuen. But when i hand washed it, blue dye came out...

THURSDAY:

As we need to take 1 inch size photo for our student pass, we went to this hut-like place to take the pictures... The place look rather rundown on both the outside and inside which will make you expecting to see an old person in there but the person who took was a young lady and she looks quite pretty too! The service was not bad, she will remind you to sit up straight and help you to adjust your hair. Will you even get this service in Singapore?




The photo turn out like this, but somehow it became blur through my handphone camera... well nevermind... but I think I look fat in this picture. But when i handed in my picture to the reception lady near the hostel's main door, she say it was pretty... At least she make my day!


FRIDAY:

On Friday We went shopping at 流行视窗 which is quite near our school, we name it "fareast"... and I bought a jacket at 100 yuen and a nice scarf at 25 yuen... After that, we went to have western food but the taste is not very fantastic but its much much better than the canteen food in school... The canteen food taste horrible! To me its far too inedible but I don't know how the people there can enjoy eating it...

Back to the meal, the only thing that is nice is the bread...
Me munching on the bread... by the way, the milk tea in the picture taste horrible, it is too milky!!

After the meal, all of us went back to the hostel and bathe and gathered at Junjie and Dylan's room. Had lots of fun playing the games, remind me of times in SAG... and furthermore, we get to see something we won't get to see often!

SATURDAY:


Saturday is super cool! cause we get to wake up at our own time... and we went k-ing on that day! The environment looks like Topone in Bugis lor!





I looked kinda of sleepy in the picture but I'm not lor! Cause I was waiting for the camera's timer and it happen that the camera start to snap picture while I was blinking my eyes... darn... and everyone else look nice in it...

After the K-session, we went to this cafe to have our dinner and the food was not bad at all!




After the meal, me and Vivian decided to hand wash our clothes and this time, they feel nicer and of cause smell nicer too!


This is how it looks like in the morning!~

More exciting Wuhan life to come! Stay tune~~~

Loves,

Ling =)

3RD DAY IN CHINA


Since I probably might not be able to blog, i must well make another post today! haha! And is post is extremely overdue...

On the 3rd, we visited 湖北省博物馆, but I couldn't understand much but just looking at the artifacts. But today when i attended my first lesson of the day on 楚文化, i felt that i should visit the museum after i learn about it. That way, i will be able to appreciate the exhibition more.

Below are the pictures!





















Next, we went to 东湖, but I think it's not very nice leh... maybe its because we went at the wrong timing? This is the best i can take...






As it is the race against time now (going to 12 midnight) i just upload the pictures and did not comment much. There is still more i want to blog about!

Please don't block blogger!!!~~~

FLIGHT PICTURES



As it has been such a long while since i last took a plane, I have forgotten how the outside the plane looks like. I choose to sit near the window and I took huiwen's camera to take a couple of pictures of the nice blue sky!


On the runway...

Let's go a bit further up!

And even higher! If it is high enough and you can see the ground, it will look like a map.

And.... the SKY!

Damn nice right?!

1st flight's meal.

2nd flight's meal...

Now that i think about it, they taste normal and edible lor... i guess i was too hungry at that time and everything taste good...

p/s: damn sad sia! Just heard that the Internet here is going to ban blogger from tomorrow onwards!!! heard that it's because of the paralympics that they allow blogger... sigh...

THE FLIGHT TO WUHAN

On this fateful day, 12 september 2008, I had my second experience of boarding the plane. And this time, the destination is Wuhan...

Thank you those who send me wishes and also those who came and send me off, thank you, I feel very much loved! Thanks for the cards, they are being displayed on my table now! hees... and special thanks to miao, for being so sweet =)

Me and my parents! Luckily they left early to go to work, if not I would probably shed a bucket of tears....

ME and miao! haha! The moment i saw her cry, i also feel like crying, but I've told myself to be brave and not to cry.

Us with wendy!

I sat with Hui wen and Debbie for the two of the flight trips and its so fun! And they are such a noodle lover. And i also took some pictures on the plane using huiwen's camera, will post when I recieved them!

We reached Guang Zhou airport, this is the total amount of stuff me and vivian bought. We all had our first meal at the airport's macdonads. And their nugget is spicy, different from singapore. But me, being a person who cannot take spicy food, i cannot feel the spicyness...

Us waiting for the next plane to Wuhan...

I think the food on the lane was okay, just abit salty, i guess im rather hungry so I'm able to eat up everything that taste like food to me. Finally, we reached Wuhan airport at night....
Us on the bus! We both looked rather tired... We are on the way for our late dinner/supper, and guess it is?
.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

Dumplings! and... its not just one plate but....

10 plates! yes 10 plates, you did not read wrongly! I guess the people there are really generous to order 10 plates of dumplings for us... either that, or they overestimated the size or our stomach.... but I have to admit, the dumplings taste not bad at all and its very juicy... you can taste the soup coming out the moment you bite into it...

And finally, after meal we went to our hostel. And... we live next door to Huiwen and debbie just as we hoped! I think they also secretly hope they can live next to us lor! LOL! and i think everyone is anxious on how our room looks like right?? i can only say its about the size of a one-room flat in singapore without the kitchen. and here it is!

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

The room is not far enough for as to take the whole picture of it....

On the left is my table.... I like it cos i can ut lots of things on top!


The beds. We pushed our beds together and we got most space. Looks comfy right? but the mattress is hard...

The toilet with toilet bowl! Hmm....did i just heard somebody grumble?

Unlike Zhejiang, the whole bunch of us are scattered around the building and we have foreign students living next to us and they are males... I don't really like the food here, i think i will need alot of time to get use to the food... and I'm missing Singapore food already!

When we go out, most of the time was me, vivian, huiwen and debbie together and we have been ask thrice whether we are koreans... SO HAPPY!!!

Stay tune to the next post!

我与我的第一次


每个人的生命中都会有许多第一次。不管是自然或是无意间发生的,这些事都不可能重来,因此往往让人印象深刻。对我而言,每一个第一次都有它自己的过程而其意义。


1989年4月10日,我来到了这个世界上。妈说,因为我不听话,在她的肚子里“上大号”,因此对母亲和胎儿造成危险,不得不在当天剖腹生产。

第一次上幼稚园极为好笑,妈妈带我上学后就要上班去了。刚好看到有位同学看见妈妈要离开的时候就马上嚎啕大哭。于是,我就上前问她为什么在哭。她回答:“因为妈妈要走了”。结果,不知怎么的,我也陪她一起哭,搞到老师不知所措。

上小学的第一天,我本来是安排到1A3班。负责老师是一位马来人,她在点名的时候不知道是不是发音不准还是我听不懂,把‘Tan Pei Li’念得好像是我的名字,结果我和Tan Pei Li一起举手。经过一番查证,原来是我把手错举了。最后,为了以后不会同个情况发生,我被安排到1A2班。不过,我和Tan Pei Li 的缘分没有就此结束,三年级的时候我们竟然又同一班,最后还成了要好得朋友。但美好的时光短暂,两年后她搬了家,我们也从此失去联络了。现在我还记得她小时候的长相,让我印象深刻的还是她那自然褐色的头发。

小时候的我很固执,简直有如一头小蛮牛。第一次搭错校车也是这个性格惹的祸。搭错校车的事情很少人知道,就连妈妈也不知道。因为,那时还不好意思跟妈妈说那么丢脸的事。不过现在想起来还真好笑,所以想在这里分享。小一上学放学,我都是搭校车的。一天放学了,5号校车却不像往常一样停在校门口,而是在学校里。有个负责指挥的员工也有在一旁说搭几号的校车的学生应该去那里。可是小时候是好奇心旺盛的时期,再加上又固执,就走出自己的队去到校门口看个究竟。结果,那里有另外一辆小车,而负责巴士的阿姨以为我是要搭那辆校车,把我牵上了车。不过,最后还是安然无恙的到家。回到家妈妈问我为什么那么迟,我只说自己搭错校车,也不敢说出原因。

第一次剪男孩子的发型是在小二的时候。其实,我从小就很想留一头乌黑长发,但是小时候妈妈管教非常严格,每次都是被她逼去理发院的,通常剪的都是那时起所谓“流行”的蘑菇头。当然,剪个超短的男孩发型也是她做的决定。因为她认为长发难打理又麻烦。结果,第二天上学是,老师就问我为什么把头发剪得那么短,我也不懂如何回答,于是老师就猜理由,问是不是因为天气热,为了满足老师,只好点了点头。回到家,我跟妈妈说老师问起我的头发。妈妈说:“你没有告诉老师是因为头皮屑。”小时候我确实有头皮屑,也许就是这个原因所以妈妈都不让我把头发流长。

第一次能够把头发流长却是亲戚的一句话。那是小六的时候,由于刚好放假妈妈也没有及着要到理发院,那时的头发长度如果没有记错的话是大概到了肩膀。不记得那时与亲戚见面时要做什么,不过舅妈一看见我,就和妈妈说,如果头发长会比较好看。妈妈又知道我想把头发流长,之后没有那么常带我去理发院了。

上了中学,最喜欢的就是课外活动了。在那里,我第一次接触戏曲和相声,对我来说无疑是个难得的经验的体会。我也喜欢大家一起并肩作战,一起努力争取好成绩的感觉。所以到了理工学院,虽然不一定要参加课外活动,我还是坚决参加舞台组,因为我喜欢和大家在一起做事的感觉。也因为这样,我交了许多志同道合的朋友,也有第一次到国外演出的经验,虽然是在邻国的槟城,不会很远,但我已经很满足了。可惜昨天因为觉得身体不适,所以临时没有与他们见面。

今天,我一早醒来,突然惊觉自己明天就要飞了,不禁开始慌了起来,怕带东西不够,还是会漏掉什么的。也许是因为之前日期还没到,所以没什么感觉。现在第一次离家,自己独立,自己生活,自己做决定,凡是都只能靠自己。这四个月到国外念一个学期的书,心里有万分的不舍,但却又很期待着个短暂的新生活,希望一切都能顺利。


所谓“出外靠朋友”,小女子就靠大家帮忙了!

再见不代表永远的离别,总有一天还会再见面的。等我,四个月后一定会回来!可别把我给忘了哦!

LATE POST


This is an extremely late post cause i decided to be lazy and stop blogging for a few days but still, I'm glad that there are people who tirelessly view my blog... literally, its not tiring as all you have to do is punch a few keys on keyboard or just do some clicking to arrive here... anyways, thanks for the support. =)

Met up with Von on Thursday for dinner... we went to eat botak jones as it was near the school, that way she won't be too late when meeting her... hahaha! actually not! I just happen to feel like eating at botak jones that's all.

Had lots of chat with her and heard of somethings which I did not know that happen in China, and also some of the problems that occured.

You know who you are, I hope that one day you both will 和好如初... It feels horrible to be stuck in between...

After the meal, we went to have ice-cream at MacDonald's... Here's Von!


And apparently, the both of us forgot to take a picture together... darn! why do I always keep forgetting?? Luckily, she will be there at the airport due to her OVB... I shall think of a string of words to say when you interview me! wahahaha!

Yesterday, I was chatting with Vivian while she is doing her blogskin and we talked about the process of how i got my blogskin, and she suggested I blog about it... here goes!

This blogskin is simple and clean and the font has become bigger (due to some feedbacks). This blogskin may look simple but the process of doing it is hurting my poor eyesight...

To achieve a white background, this picture...



has to be lasso out and be like this...



the lasso-ing part is tough due to the long curls of the lady in the picture.

And the rose...




became this....



The hard part is to differentiate whether the black portion is part of the rose or the background...

Next, the lady's hair is too thin like mine so I make it more thick and ta-dah! (refer to your right). The rest should be easy, I shall not talk much about it.... In the olden days, masters only share about 50% of their skills, and I've shown 70%, which is very good already!
