SpiderEms Spider Ems
so ok at bible study i was still drowning myself in the Buble' phase of mine so i just had to bring it into the conversation.
Me: Hey have u guys heard Michael Buble's version of Spiderman?
Em: Errr... that was the original version... they played it in the movie. *thinks* you inferior being.
Me: Really? I thought there was an old one to like a cartoon show.
Em: No I do not think so.. *thinks* how dare you question my infinite knowledge.
Everyone else: Yeah emily's right, there was no cartoon.
KC: *gathers courage* Actually i think there was.
Em: Maybe u just read the comics and imagined the whole thing.
KC: .... you are right Emily. How foolish of me (k not those words exactly)
oh yeahhhhhhhhhhhhh

longest birthday ever...
so it was the epic birthday party yesterday (party for mickee, vonnie, sandy and myself) (myself? trying to be all correcty englishy) (didnt last long) anywayssss
so yeah i was gunna cook fried rice for the party but then dad was like "... yeah... let's not ruin the party *pats head*" soo i spent that time watching him cook.
Jonathan: Hey Frances this fried rice is really good!
Me: Yeah my dad made it.
Jonathan: IT'S REALLY GOOD!
Me: Yeah he knows.
i went to the party early to help set up, ended up standing there for an hour waiting for the party to start. Sandra and mickee were cleaning and setting up the place for like 2 hours before i got there. perfect timing.
so we had music (memory lane music) and the hulahoops (no party can do without) and cake (a billion of them). and of course present time. i would post about every present but so little time.. and u guys will see why.
i got heaps of clinque stuff and i actually know that brand so its not so scary.
i got a pink... ermmm... well... yeah i have no idea. just look.
lol but it has magical powers that override sharks, giraffes and random yellow crabs.
i got flowers for the first time. and from guess who. its zeffy poo! (meaning steffy poo! hmm i tried to mold their names into one...)
zef is like the brother that doesnt want to show affection until he absolutely has to lol i love that. the next most affectionate thing he's done to me would be calling me fannydong.
Zef: Yeah i figured no one has given you flowers before.
Me: Thanx man.
and here comes the epic present... "The Epic Journey of Fannydong". Nessy poo's story that u've heard so much about.
family camp
ahhhhhh dont u just love church camps? i mean where else can do crazy things like play with hulahoops, poop out ping pong balls, eat string and wrap another human being in mountains of toilet paper... and its OK?
so since no one has written any posts bout family camp... i guess i'll take this one (seeing as i am the worst uni student out of all of u).
5 star cabins. ooooooooooh thank the Lord for blessing us with toilets and showers to each room.
Crashing Pen's cabin. it was reeking of deodorant... i think ness kept naggin simon to spray himself.
the party gettin crowded and crazy = playing sudoku and having spelling competitions. we were just a room of nerds.
Dr Ivan's awesome talks bout praying the prayer "make us a blessing", what sacrifices we have to make, how we should prepare ourselves for that. he was a really awesome speaker.
hulahoops. even the respected adults of the church were showing their off their thrusting skills. and who said curves help? me and ness were the worst at it. but after an hour of endless practicing... we became professional hulahoop hoopers... until all the little kids took over and totally shut us down with their 'hulahooping at the knees' and 'walking around while hulahooping'. smart-ass kids lol.
the last nite = sitting around a table singing any song that came to mind.
watching bui him twitch with the urge to join in while knowing we would pay him out if he so much as opens his mouth... lol we're horrible.
reminiscing camp photos... two hours after the photos were taken??
random quotes from camp...
"and i said what about breakfast at tiffany's"
"i hope u know.. i hope u knoooooow"
"make me a blessing, make me a blessing to someone today"
"make me a bungalow, make me a bungalow to some bung today"
Me: why don't we have an endless supply of cups!?!? i want an endless supply of cups!!!
Em: u know.. if you wish for an endless supply of cups... u mite regret it.. (serious face)
Me: (unimpressed stare) ... i wish for an endless supply of cups.
"jonamaphooooon"
ness: Welcome to our lair!!
me: *sigh* ur not saying it right...
ness: oh.. welcome to our lair!!
me: *thinks* that's exactly the same as what u just said..
Me: what kind of a name is Bungalow!?!?
Em: you've just insulted someone's language.. (serious face)
Me: (unimpressed stare) ...I WISH FOR AN ENDLESS SUPPLY OF CUPS!!!!
Me and ness: Hey eddy! can we have those two hulahoops??
Eddy: SURE!
Smart-ass kids: Hey eddy! can we have those two hulahoops??
Eddy: SURE!
"may bungalow shine..."
Me and Sidekick Ness
so you guys may have seen ness' awesomest bday present. if not. well. it was awesome. it was a story book bout our journey together through friendship. and i know i'll never do it justice but i'm bored right now so i'm gunna look back on our story.. but instead of using photos of ourselves... i'll use clips of turk and jd.. the two friends we identify with the most.
the first day me and ness met was a special day. ness was a quite shy girl. she had thick glasses, huge braces and was reeking of nerdiness. me? well i dun wanna brag but i was quite the kool pre-teen.... ok i was loud and obnoxious like any other. but i thought ness needed a friend so i approached her.
and then began our friendship. only now we've morphed into eachother to both become loud obnoxious nerdy teens.
we became inseparable. there were times when skool started again and oh how i missed her. but thank goodness those holidays came around when we would once again be reunited.
we grew up together. and shared experiences of growing up. like... being VIP guests at a wedding (Pen's wedding to be exact).
and shared other experiences like clubbing. k... we havent gotten there yet but it's been planned for at least two years now. but i know i'll have to use my streetsmarts and springwoodness to get her in.
and got into the health profession together. only we'll bring a little something extra the to hospital.
and although OTs hate doctors and doctors... well dont care bout OTs... our friendship prevails.
the end.
18...
so i finally turned 18.
How does it feel? feels like a few days after being 17.
Has anything changed? No, i still have to think for a while before i answer the question "how old are you?" except maybe now asians won't be surprised to hear my age.
Did i do anything wildly crazily insane on my 18th? Well, I wanted to have my first legal drink but everyone thought i would pass out after my first sip. they're prolly right.
Did i get any presents? Yep!
so what happened on my birfday? well it was prolly the best birfday ive ever had, simply becuz i spent the day surrounded by the friends i love and cherish. it didnt really matter what i did, just who i was with.
plus, i dont think ive ever been reminded it was my birthday so many times in one day. i mean, i forgot my own birthday once.... once. but yeah with all the humiliating happy birthday singing in public, i remembered just fine :P don't think ive ever had a whole food court of ppl stare at me before... good times... lol
so in the morning we had the interfellowship sports day with Sherwood (our sister church). that was awesome fun... felt like a mini camp. and who's group won? oh yeah thats right, 'GROUP NUMBER ONE! ...WE'RE NUMBER ONE!'
and i got a HUGE surpirse. SIMON BELL (hot n spicy) showed up at the sports day. he hid behind B and i was about 40 meters away, but all i had to see was the rim of his hair and i knew it was him. it was just *thinks* there's a white dude over there...cant see his face... wait... i know those curls ANYWHERE!!! lol thanx for the surpise sime. cant spell surprise
after that we went to buffet garden... same spot as last time. and ppls mixed heaps of things to make a horrible creation for bui to drink for 7 bucks, just like last time. oh! and the dodgy birthday tape played for me. "HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO mmmMMMM... HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOUUUU" i DO feel special. especially since that song played every two minutes for someone else. everyones born in august... and no.. i dont wanna know what they meant for the parents.
then we went to have dinner at Little tai pei. what can i remember from it... oh
"HE WORE AN ITSY BITSY... TEENY WEENY... YELLOW... POKA DOT... BIKINI"
max trying to wear her napkin as fashionably as she could.
watching mickey chew his food, the man can bite like the wind but when it comes to chewing... lol
went to tea etc., like old times, and went to Fun House, like... those few times we did before.
but the day was exactly how i planned. everyone together having a good time just doing what we used to do, talking, laughing and enjoying eachother's company.
thanx everyone for the awesomest birfday ever :D
Ching chong cha Timeless
So here's the song you've all been hearing so much about. I think the song was english and then they made this asian version. i just love how asian songs have random lines of english. i just sit there anticipating for that word... the only part i can sing along too... but then again... my asian is quite competent.
i just love the dude singer's hair
Everything comes down to Sven
You guys remember the poo song right (just scroll down) Well Ness and I couldn't stop thinkin bout sven the other day (as we all know) so we thought we'd make a song about him based on the Poo song (the awesomest song ever)
btw this took me forever, so you better sing to these lyrics.
Ness: You see...
Everything comes down to Sven!
He'll be stuck in your head, till who knows when
Who's the most memorable of all the men? We all know it is Sven!
Frank: Do you want to come to camp? You better state your case
If he doesn't like the look of you, he'll stump you in the face!
Ness: It doesn't really matter if your rich or if you're kool
He'll pack your bags and send you out and tell you you're a fool
Yes!
Everything comes down to Sven!
All: Everything comes down to Sven!
Ness: His ideas for youth camp send us into a frenz!
All across the nation, we trust in his dictation
Everything comes down to Sven!
Frank: If you're feeling down and blue, don't sit and wait for fate
Just think of him and you'll be fine, he'll send you to a trance-like state
Heidi: My cat died
Ness: Think of Sven
Random 2: I failed my exam
Frank: Think of Sven
Random 3: I won the lottery!
Ness: Think of Sven
Random 4: I can't stop thinking about Sven!
Frank: Think of Sven!
Random 4: But I already am...
Ness: Well... you're obviously not doing it enough.
Ness: It may sound nuts, you may say “No!”
Ness and Frank: But if you vote him chairperson, you will have to go!
Because...
All: Everything comes down to Sven!
Frank: He'll make next year's curfew not a minute past ten
Ness and Frank: You better move on over Zef, Em and Pen!
Frank: If you guys object, you'll be sent to the den
All: If he's on your mind, that means you'll soon find
Everything comes down to
Ness: Ren Yen!
Frank: Ben Jen!
Ness: Hen Ken!
Frank: Sen Len?
All: Everything comes down to... SVEN!
ahh scrubs
so ok i need to explain this to the non-scrubs kind of ppl out there. these guys are doctors. there's a lady that has something wrong with her and she hears ppl singing all the time. theyre tryin to find out what's wrong with her. i'll let the video speak for itself.
i dunno who wrote this song... but they're brilliant.
what is it bout this guy?
was surfing youtube (since i have an amazinf rush of freedom.. whats the first thing to do) and i found this clip. watch this dude... now there's sumfin bout him that reminds me of bui... what is it??
ooooooooooooooooh mannnnnn
bah!!! it went from summer to winter in a span of two days!! and since i think the British or American post is gettin out of hand... im gunna talk bout sumthing more relevant... like how freakin cold it is. There is a reason why autumn was invented... it's so winter doesnt seem to bad. but thanx to global warming and our screwed weather pattern.. we dont have that luxury this year.
k now im gunna elaborate on this point in a list of points.
What winter means to me:
Number one - Showers turn from a leisure activity to a dreaded task. And those "sudding" periods due to water restriction become a little more invigorating.
Number two - Avoiding physical contact with the toilet seat.. either that or brace yourself.
Number three - Ugly jumpers. I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU FASHION QUEENS SAY (or bui) (...not paying him out, just saying he knows what looks good lol) if a girl is cold, she has the God given right to wear what only makes her look fat and hoboish.
Number four - Jeans. ahhhh yes... glorious jeans... and u know what that means? not shaving my legs... i know i know... i'm so glamorous. and it also means dry cracked skin. "tis the season to be fugly, falalala lalalala.."
Number five - Tucking my pants into my socks and my shirt into my pants... i look like a hilarious multicoloured snow beast in my home clothes. i would show u guys a photo but my camera died. or i just dont want u show u guys.
British or American?
Sorry Em, but u know this is "blog material".
so like 3 weeks ago, at bible study, i heard em say the word "learned" and i was like "WHAT DID U JUST SAY????" and i made a big deal bout em saying the word "learned" cuz i thought it sounded.. well... not right. but anyways tonite deary em left a message on msn while i was offline :P lol
ems *komen sent 30/05/2007 10:01 PM:
franky poo
if you remember
one day i used the word "learned" and you asked me "isnt' it 'learnt'"
well both forms exist
and it's not that one's american and one's british
though some people say that
it's cos they dont know grammar
the two differnt forms actually have slightly differnt meanings
and are constructed differently in speech
same goes for burned/burnt
dreamed / dreamt
ahhh thank you SeiSei Emily hehe u have enlightened me ^^
lol.... British or American... will never forget it.
Camp Karios Vid
In recent days, a seemingly random group of individuals have developed random abilities in random ways. After randomly finding each other they discovered that their “special” abilities were all linked for one purpose... to get “mindreader” Tim to the EMP Youth Camp and fulfil his destiny.
Every journey has a beginning. Tim's journey begins now...
Frances Dong
Frances Dong. This name has an extensive history of nicknames.... let's go through it shall we? *does excited dance*
k lets start with the basics.
France - As in the country yes.
Francey - Well i guess now its the country in a slightly more affectionate manner
Frank - suddenly everyone identified my name with a male's name, i know i know, these guns do fool u all. I'm pretty sure bui started up that one.
Frankus - Shannon from highskool/primary started this one. Shes a creative one :)
Frankie - I think thats pretty straight forward.
Frankenstein - Definately done by Zef. He flatters me. This was the stage where he'd think of 5 nicknames in a day. I think he resorted to Frankfurt Sausage. Yeah. He flatters me.
Fooces - Yeah it sounds a bit random hey. Well thats cuz it is. Actually it was started by Em. My dad wanted to make me a signature so he wrote frances so fast that it looks like fooces. Emily found that hil-aaarious. She also came up with Secnarf (name backwards). Yeah... we were a bunch of odd children.
Fran - Like the Nanny. I still can't imitate her.
Franny - Mainly used by my crazy highskool/primary friend Pharan.
And now we come to Fanny Dong. Mainly used by... u guessed it. Zef.
Well this all started when we were in choir and the song of the day was written by Frances Something. Now Frances Something decided to include her nickname, Fanny, in brackets, cuz u know... that might help ppl know who she is and all. And sime actually started the nickname Fanny Dong. He can make any nickname stick (Vances Tong and Franessa Day?). Zef made a few alteration to come up with Digger Dong.
Digger Dong came from his other creation... Gold Digger. Mmmm he knows me well. lol jokes... i think it was from the Logan Diggers scholarship i got last year. I remember the last time zef used my real name, during a prayer for praise and worship.
Zef: Dear God, i just wanna pray for everyone here, sven, em, umm (pause, thinks - whats her real name again?) frances.
Me: bahaha u called me frances!! u never call me that!
Zef: Yeah, well, at least God knows who i'm talking bout.
In primary ppl used to call be Daria (the depressed teenage girl cartoon) and Eeyore (the depressed donkey cartoon). I wasnt depressed at a young age, I just didnt express happiness lol. Plus my voice was a lot more mainly.
In my early years my mum used to call me "Eight Times the Ugly" in chinese. Cuz, calling me ugly wasnt enough to describe me, so it had to be multiplied by eight to give the full capacity. lol ahhhh asian parents.
anyways, just curious, if u have stories behind ur nicknames, please do share *thumbs up*
winter time
ahhhh winter is around the corner and it is gooooood. nothin better than snuggling in my pink fluffy robe. and that's not the only benefit when it comes to colder whether. It means that the guys will have to cover up. YEAH thats right... i'm afraid some guys have been revealing a little too much for my likin during the summer.
there should be an unwritten law of what guys should not wear.
Law 1. Guys should not wear short shorts. I mean ok ok if ur playing footy and u have a note.. I'll let u off... but if ur at uni and those pants just happen to ride higher than ur knees... uve crossed the line. Let's keep those muscular thighs on a no show
Law 2. Guys should avoid the tight tank tops. Yes i know i know... they accent the arms and all but it's just weird when i see guys wearing tops that i like... as in... something i would wear.
Law 3. actually thats pretty much it but u cant have a list of only two laws can u.
on an irrelevant topic... i'm gettin a little sick of crazy clarks. Everything is pretty repetative now... even the customer jokes. its gotten so bad that i can predict what the customers will say. 
city noobs
Thank you to my anatomy lecturer who was too busy to lecture us today *two thumbs up* And since my lecture was cancelled I figured itd be a good day to go dress shopping with ness for Pen's wedding. NAAAWWWTTT!! Do we girls ever buy what we're meant to buy when we go shoppin?
But i'll tell u what i did buy.... a swimming cap. Yeah. It goes with my wedding outfit. anyways you know how labels normally say "ONE SIZE FITS ALL". Well this swimming cap company must have been Christian cuz they were pretty honest. 
lol. It's like "errrr guys... maybe this cap really doesnt fit everyone... Like think about it... what if a few ppl on this earth have extraordinarily large heads." (not naming any names... sime.)
Happy birthday to sime btw *thumbs up*
What is with me and thumbs up now?
Me and ness shouldnt go to the city alone when we both have no clue where we're goin.
Me: I need to go to that place... and its like at the end... and its like... got buildings and shops and stuff.
Ness: *mental sigh* Broadway? Queens square? Winter Garden?
Me: Yeah.
after half an hour of walk back and forth aimlessly tryin to look for sumfin familiar we finally found our destination.... Macathur Central
Ness: macathur central sounds nothing like Winter Garden.
Me: Meh. Sounds the same to me.
*exchange unimpressed looks*
one day my friends... one day i will know my way around the city... and my own neighbourhood...
