Hihi!! Late by two days, gomen ne! LOL~
Well, I changed the layout! A bit. HAHA~ Hope this is MUCH Simpler~ I like things simple and nice~ And I will think of a better layout hopefully by the end of this month!! >.< LOL~ And PLEASE, use FireFox! IE sucks to the core, as everybody knows it~ ^_~
Well well~~ I went to the PC Show on Friday!! Luckily we went there way earlier than its opening time~ Phew, we were able to WALK! o.O Yeah, walk, instead of shift inch by inch in the crowd of sardines, LOL~
Sony M2 1GB card was $70 in March, but $40 now! Of course I grabbed it! YAY! I'm enjoying it! Therefore, I forgot to update this precious HaruPort of mine, lol~
What have I been doing in May? Hmmm.. Mainly working~ Working on a corporate website.. and on translating 3 articles from Chinese to English. These articles were originally translated from Korean though.. So.. Korean » Chinese » English.. So.. I dunno the English version of the Korean names, lol.. I always have to go through a lot of trouble just to find out those damn names, lol!
If only they were of Japanese origin.. *daydreams about sushi*
But I'm not complaining~ I like translating and I like being paid for getting it done, haha!

1st day of May!! SPIDERMAN 3!!
Anyone wanna watch it with me? ^_^ Unfortunately, all tickets are booked and I suspect that will be the case for the days to come.. T_T
The weather is HOT HOT HOT!! Omg, so hot so hot, and yet the swimming+sports complex near my house hasn't been completed yet.. T_T
Anyway, I was and still am self-studying Japanese language with the help of a website~~ It's got 40 lessons and I'm only at the 14th lesson, haha! Also studying it with a friend who is the same as me: half-bucket of water, haha!
Nihongo ga daisuki desu! Nihon e ikimasu naritai!
日本語が大好きです!日本へいきますなりたい!
[I love Japanese! I wish to go to Japan!]
Watashi wa Haru desu. Watashi wa Shingapouru kara kimashita!
私は晴です。私はシンガポールからきました!
[I am Haru. I came from Singapore!]
I found a nice webby! It provides info about my beloved country to the Japanese!
Shingapouru jin wa itsumo taberu koto ni ----. [I dunno how to pronounce Kanji la! =X]
シンガポール人はいつも食べることに一生懸命。
[I'm guessing it means that "Singporeans love to eat as much they love life itself." Or maybe it's: "吃是新加坡人一生的使命." Or even: "Singaporeans no eat will die!" LOL!!!!!!]
And I totally agree! I live to EAT!! *ROFL*
Anyway, enough of my half-bucket-of-water-Japanese!! New month means new updates!!
Hoho!! I skipped a month!! Gomen ne!! It was because it's my birthday on 3rd March and well, couldn't think straight for a few days before and after that, haha!
I've been thinking of changing this index page yet again!! Oh, me and my fickle self! Haha~ I dunno, I'm a perfectionist, I guess.. I just find this index page not very good.. That's just me, I hope you don't feel the same way I do, haha!! BUT!! But if you DO, please please please do send me a mail about how you feel I should improve my index page!! I'll feel sad but I'll get over it and improve my index page!! So yeah, would really love your help and comments on this!!^_^
Here's my mail: ruoyi85[at]hotmail.com
I'm probably not online if you are looking for me in the various online hangouts coz my internet is no longer valid. Gonna be signing up with another one, but my dad doesn't want the more value-for-money plan from StarHub and instead wants the cheap-but-lousy plan from SingNet.. I dunno how to make him understand.. I can only hope that some kind and nice people [yes, you!!] would give me a few projects to do and let me earn some money. Then perhaps I can sign up with StarHub.. HELP, PLEASE! Tasuketekure!! Onegaishimasu!!
Anyway, it's April Fool's Day! And there're lotsa updates! I kid you not! ROFL~
Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a fantastic 2007!
I miss caroling and so let me share with you some of my favourites! ^_^
"Silent Night"
Silent night, holy night All is calm, all is bright Round yon Virgin Mother and Child Holy Infant so tender and mild Sleep in heavenly peace Sleep in heavenly peace
Silent night, holy night! Shepherds quake at the sight Glories stream from heaven afar Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia! Christ, the Saviour is born Christ, the Saviour is born
Silent night, holy night Son of God, love's pure light Radiant beams from Thy holy face With the dawn of redeeming grace Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth
"Carol of the Bells"
Hark how the bells, sweet silver bells, all seem to say, throw cares away Christmas is here, bringing good cheer, to young and old, meek and the bold. Ding dong ding dong that is their song with joyful ring all caroling. One seems to hear words of good cheer from everywhere filling the air. Oh how they pound, raising the sound, o'er hill and dale, telling their tale. Gaily they ring while people sing songs of good cheer, Christmas is here. Merry, Merry, Merry, Merry Christmas, Merry, Merry, Merry, Merry Christmas. On on they send, on without end, their joyful tone to every home. Ding dong ding... dong!
Oh Come All Ye Faithful
O come all ye faithful Joyful and triumphant O come ye, o come ye to bethlehem Come and behold him Born the king of angels O come let us adore him O come let us adore him O come let us adore him Christ the lord
Sing, choirs of angels, Sing in exultations, Sing, all ye citizens of heavn above; Glory to god Glory in the highest: O come let us adore him O come let us adore him O come let us adore him Christ the lord
See how the shepherds, Summoned to his cradle, Leaving their flocks, draw nigh to gaze; We too will thither Bend our joyful footsteps; (chorus)
Yea, lord, we greet thee, Born this happy morning, Jesus, to thee be glory given; Word of the father, Now in flesh appearing: O come let us adore him O come let us adore him O come let us adore him Christ the lord
O come all ye faithful Joyful and triumphant O come ye, o come ye to bethlehem Come and behold him Born the king of angels O come let us adore him O come let us adore him O come let us adore him Christ the lord
Tuesday, November 07, 2006 @ 5:05 PM | comments Small Round of Updates First ^_-
Yup, I'll release a small round of Updates first.
The Big Round of Updates aren't ready yet because.. Well, because it's not the end of the year yet. I don't like people seeing their birthday presents before I give it to them. ^_^
This small round of updates includes the following:
Updated my "Others" page with even older works, haha~
Scroll to the bottom of this page and you will see the "Link to me" section~ Actually you'll see some codes staring back at you, hehe.. You can link to me [pretty please~ please do so?] using the images! Just copy and paste the codes into your own page's html. ^_^ Thankz in advanced!!
Overall navigation has been improved and I hope you like my portfolio more now! ^_^
And hopefully I can find more codes to protect my works!
My friend has just set up her design company! It's called Breathe. As it is still very new, I'm sure she can't hire me, haha! But pay her website a visit!
It's located in the GFX section, be sure to check it out!! ^_-
Thursday, September 21, 2006 @ 12:08 PM | comments Desperate
It calls for DESPERATE MEASURES to be taken when nobody seem to notice the little chatterbox on the right side of this blog. How did I know that? It's obvious enough when nobody at all was posting anything on it. -_-"
So~
I REPEATED IT AFTER EVERY POST. Now, you won't be that blind not to notice it now, would you?
Now, let me just sit back and see if anyone post some messages in my Chatterbox.
Oh yeah, thankz for coming to my portfolio! Remember to check back from time to time! See ya!
Why is there a "Request for Resume" button on top of the chatterbox? Well, it's because a resume contains many personal information not to be given out so easily like a brochure or anything like that.
And also, I wish that employers would request my resume, read it and EMPLOY ME!! I want a full-time job in this field, thank you very much!!
3D E-Cards Flash Interface Others Poster Sketches Websites
Are all updated!! yahooooooooo~!
But like I said, there are more updates and changes comin' up!
Left: Audio Literary Logo Wallpaper A link to request my RESUMé~
Hee, check back from time to time o! ^_~
Friday, September 08, 2006 @ 10:41 PM | comments Welcome to my Portfolio!!
Welcome welcome~ Please take a seat if you like ^_^
Finally, I started doing a new portfolio! Lol.. A concept popped into my head on the 29th of August 2006 and so I decided that it's finally time I do something. I know, I know.. It's late, deshou? But, well, here it is! Lol..
Everything in Home, GFX and Blog is done. Only Button in the Works section is done.. For the other categories, please be patient with me because I myself need to sort out all the works I've done all these years.. Hee, sometimes I can be considered as a very organised person, but other times.. Let's just say I'm confused, HAHA!
Alright, I hope you like my site~ Thankz for dropping by! Oh, don't forget to leave me a message in the chatterbox on the right side »
Check back for my other categories, ok? Hee, thankz a lot!!

Monday, January 1, 2007 @ 9:18 AM | comments HAPPY NEW YEAR!! Welcome to the First Day of 2007!
Happy New Year!
Have a Fantastic 2007!
Every start to a new year, people will make resolution lists. I've never made one because I know that I won't keep to it and won't be able to achieve what I have written in the list, haha!
But I guess it's high time I make one because I need to keep track of myself and my memory is failing more and more T_T so I need to remind myself of what I need to do..
In 2007, Haru must do the following in no particular order:
» Earn and Save money: must have at least $500 in my bank account T_T
» Learn the Japanese language [the 2 books cost $100]
» Tidy up my room and maintain it
» Get a bike and/or car license
» Watch every great movie that comes out =p
» Make this "freelance business" properous!
» If possible, make myself pretty coz I don't want to remain an ugly duckling!
» Slim down! Wait, don't hit me! Must lose at least 5kg.. =p
» Have a better temper =p
» Complete the manga titles that I started
» Buy Death Note and NANA movies DVD
» Buy a new handphone [now I'm using N6100, can you believe it?! o.O]
» And I don't have a boyfriend, believe it! So.. yeah.. T_T
» Get braces [that's one way to make myself pretty]
» Paint or draw on my wall.. To show my personality.
» Cure my asthma
» Sing even better
» Puzzle frames
» Try to be more open up and extroverted.. [SO HARD!]
OVERVIEW: Pisces is having a once in a lifetime opportunity for great changes this year. You will be having the time of your life, expressing your loving and compassion to the world and fulfilling your boldest dreams. There won't be a dull moment and you will intuitively know exactly what path to follow and what feels right in your heart.
You will feel compelled to grasp new opportunities that manifest self-transformation in your career. You're stepping into your power easily, especially around April when you are urged to express your visionary mentality. You might rediscover your musical abilities and express yourself in creative ways. You have the power and inspiration to bring mystical sensitivity to what's around you. It's time to bring out the dreamy, loving and compassionate side of yourself and let it shine.
You may want to get involved in writing, be it lyrics, poetry or just self reflection. Your idealistic nature is inspired from a strong connection to your surroundings, and you easily express yourself from a place of inner awareness. Your natural ability to communicate ideas to others is keenly perceptive now. Focus on trusting your intuition and you will get through nearly any circumstance. You need to lighten up about difficulties in life. Don't be so critical and overly concerned about details. Because you're so sensitive to others' moods, you may feel like you're not coming across in a very positive way. Take time out and have fun this year. Embrace that intimate love relationship you have!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
LOVE: Home and domestic issues are extremely important to you this year. You will feel close to those you love in your home environment. You are selective about emotional attachments. You have many positive friendships and feel socially comfortable. Being the sentimental and emotionally sensitive Pisces that you are gives you a gentle compassionate and loving personality, and the opposite sex appreciates that about you.
You are idealistic and self-sacrificing. People adore you and can't get enough of your good nature, especially since you are a reliable friend and companion. Cuddling up next to a fireplace and having popcorn while watching a romantic movie or reading a book ignites the fantasy of having an intimate relationship. You'll find happiness when you connect with your higher self, and you function at your best when staying true to your fundamental vision of spiritual union in the world. Find someone who shares that vision.
Your comfort level will definitely be going through some changes this year and you may even feel an urgency to move into a permanent home base. Emotional risks aren't something you want to take, and you may feel insecure about sharing your love with anyone else. As a result, you may feel vulnerable and raw. This year, learn how to overcome fears and trust your higher self to find the perfect relationship for you. In the springtime, you may be ready for a new relationship, or want to find new avenues of expression in your current relationship. You will be going through a lot of positive changes regarding your feelings this year, and it will make an enormous difference in your life.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
CAREER: With your outgoing nature and good work ethics, this is a great year to work with the public and let some of your hidden qualities shine outwardly. You are a good manager and make a wonderful role model to motivate others. Your high-minded principles spell success. Working in a higher educational field -- perhaps teaching philosophy or metaphysics -- would be very good for you. You feel comfortable teaching others about intangible principles because you've worked so hard to acquire your own self-awareness. Because of your compassion and being such a good listener, people feel drawn to you and look to you for advice.
Very ambitious and seriously striving to reach your goals, you will achieve success this year. You will be asked to step up to the plate in new ways to help others. You will go through a lot of powerful transformations throughout the year in your career. You may have sudden and surprising opportunities -- traveling to distant lands, perhaps -- and will benefit from taking advantage of them. Try exploring new horizons, since it is a good time to expand your repertoire of skills and knowledge.
You will benefit from grounding yourself from time to time in the practical considerations of life, especially since you will be asked to give out so much energy this year. Your work may be quite demanding, and sensitive Pisces needs to take time out just to relax, regroup and dream, especially when summer rolls around -- your favorite time of year. You need to recharge. Spend time alone in nature, especially by the sea.
It corresponds with another article I read and I really hope everything they said will be true for me! Now, I feel a bit more hope for my future.. ^_^
I wish you a happy new year! Have a fantastic 2007!
