Quick update

I will not be getting my laptop for another 1 week minimum...*SOBS* so until then, my updating will be not so frequent...

Orientation week is going to end tommorow...after that classes start...I take Chemistry, Composition, Psychology, Public Speaking and Aerobics this semester. Right now I'm looking at majoring in Biology but these are the general classes I'll have to take in order to graduate with a Bachelors in Science.

Yesterday I went to a chinese church whether like 1/3 or them are Malaysians and I started speaking to this guy in Manglish...and everyone around the table just started laughing at us...apparently all the lahhhs and lohhs came out...sheesh...shynya...

Yes, I promise I will update more.

I'm alive

*sings*
Because she lives!!
She can face tomorrow!!
Because she lives...
She is not dead!!!
*stops singing*

Just to let you all know, I'm alive and well...I reached Friday midnight my time...after my plane itenarary changed TWICE...i'll blog about that later...

Yeah...so I'm alive...and kicking...

Last post from singapore...

My flight was overbooked...hahahaha...so i've got a new itenarary...

okay...gotta run to catch my flight

Still at singapore airport

I'm still in singapore.

Caffine is working...i'm getting hyper. *Jumps around*

I had a 10 second panic attack just now b4 I expertly squished away the feeeeling...so now I am OK again. =D I dunno la...this is so weird...I've managed to convince myself that I'm just going away on a long camp. A 9 month camp. Maybe that's why I'm so stone. hahahaha...

Well...so far so good...i'm about 1/8ths into my Amazing Race...annother 35 hours to go...

Um...Esiotrot, the novel you wrote to me was very amusing and touching at the same time...dun worry...my eyeballs didn't fall out while reading it...they are very safe in their sockets...

...david KOR KOR...I read your blog about mua...and...you made me cry *SLAP U*...anyways...since I'm in the "I love everybody" mood...I shall be extra nice and say...i luv u...=D hmmm...i wonder if that just made mum cry...haha....

ummm...maybe i'll blog AGAIN later...since I really got nothing to do...

Reporting from Singapore Airport...

I'm in Singapore...

Right now I'm feeling super smart because I managed to find all the places I'm supposed to find...=D But then again...i'm less than 5% into my Amazing Race...

My flight is at 6 am tomorrow morning...I can check in 3 hours before time...so now I have my beloved coffee as my one and only companion. Hopefully my zombieness won't overpower the caffine rush that I need to keep vigil through tonight...yeah...or I may wake up with my bags gone...

Yeah...dear all who smsed me, called me, gave me cards, prayed for me or gave me the much needed encouragement, thank you...I love you all...I'll miss you all...you all take care...

I don't know what to say...my brain is in a million pieces...I'm not excited or sad or emo or happy...i'm feelingless...haha...is that normal? I don't think so.

I need to sit down...the donkey computer doesn't have a chair...haha...maybe I'll blog again later since there's nothing else to do...=)

i'm leaving on a jet plane...

I leave my house in 6 hours time...

I love you all...I'll miss you all...

OOOH...I want to make my mum cry...so...MUM AND DAD, I LOVE YOU!!!! Dad...please go get mum some tissue now...

Yeah...It's a 13 hour time difference...so I'll reach there Saturday 1 pm...hopefully...HAHA...

Tomorrow...

I leave tomorrow.
It's 1.30 am in the morning and this is just about the time of the day where I freak out about leaving. =D

It seems like my 38 hour journey is getting longer...OCU can't send their ppl to pick me up from the airport the moment I arrive bcoz it's too late...and the dorms aren't open...so I will be shelter-less for just a tad bit longer...=)
According to my predictions, I will be without a proper bath for just about 48 hours. Oh the horrors.

I've packed...finally. So let me introduce you to Mr.& Mrs. Bag. Ironically, Mrs. Bag is 3 Kg heavier than Mr. Bag.

I remember the morning of the day I got accepted into OCU. The passage was on Hebrews 11. To me, its one of the most challenging passages in the bible. And when I read the part about Abraham leaving his home even though he didn't know where he was going, I told God I'd go to America if He provided a place for me.

And that night, I got an email from OCU telling me that I'd been accepted with enough scholarship. (Talk about instant messaging) My heart dropped to my stomach and boy, my stomach was having a hard time digesting it. So that's why I'm going. And yes, I'm undecided on my major, but I feel that God's saying that I may not know where I'm going, but He does.


So I'm going. Whether or not I like it. =) I admit it, I'm scared. But I'm going. I'm kicking my self out of the nest. WHOOT!

*sings* I'm flying without wingsss...*CRASH* heeee...

let me explain...

I'm not a cow fanatic...neither do i like to eat Siew Paus..but some how the nicknames stuck...so let me explain...

I became obsessed with the cow song...seriously...it's such a cute song that I couldn't resist singing it...and the fact that my bro couldn't stand it made me like it much much more...=)

The Cow Song
I am cow, hear me moo!!
I weigh twice as much as you!
And i look good on a bbq!!!
Yogurt, curd cream cheese and butter...
Comes from liquid from my udder!!
I am cow, I am cow, hear me MOOOOOO!

this is cow...or rather this is my cow face...notice the blurness...


And this is siewpau...


No, my name is not Caryn Tan Siew Pau...i mean like, who names their kids siew pau?? *faints*

Siew Pau is an exaggerated character who visits Sunday School once in a while...she humiliates herself in front of 100 kids...or sometimes the whole church...wears dungarees for 14 years old kids and huge lala ribbons...jumps around like a monkey...falls over stuff (usually not on purpose)...she says stupid stuff and does stupid things...All this to make Sunday School lessons more interesting...

Oh well...not that i mind...acting as siewpau is totally natural...haha...i talk nonsense and fall over stuff everyday anyways...

so...to those of you who have been wondering why i am siewcowpau...your answer is here...

First post...

Seriously...i dunno how long this blog will survive before 'mummy' abandons it...(as i did with facebook and friendster) But 'mummy' is a dutiful daughter and friend...and 'mummy' will try to keep updating...

Anyways...i'm off to america in exactly 7 days and 6 hours 35 minutes...flight is on 14 Aug at 9:35 pm...then it will be a crazy 38 hours...i fly to singapore...transit for 7 hours...hong kong...transit for 2 hours...LA...transit 8 hours...and then oklahoma...so ppl...pray i don't get onto the wrong plane...or fall asleep in the terminal and miss my flight...or whatever klutzy thing i'm apt to do...

So until then...i will be freaking out big time...
