:: Oct mayhem ::

2010-10-20T16:16:00.005+08:00

October was surposely to feel long n draggy... cox no PH.. but apparently there's more happenings tat kept me busy...

1st half of the mth:

Some1's bday this mth, again. The lucky person got the chance of havin me celebrating bday 2nd time while i'm still quite bu shuang abt the person forgetting mine tis yr. If the person forgets my next bday, this person will 'die'.... painfully of cox.

Spent some time thinking wat i should do... than the idea of delivering a box of roses jus pop out of nowhere... So in goes the roses (fake ones of cox! dun wan anythin to die of suffocation in the parcel), a dolly & a card into a little box.. wrapped & sent via speedpost within 5 hrs.. quite cool actually.

I tink its nice to courier some1 a box of gift. Adds some surprise to it. ^^

So there goes my 1st half of Oct, busy with preparation of surprises & gifts...

2nd half of Oct:

Stuck @ home with chicken pox... $#$!^&$* Unhapi feeling sick for 1 week + my face is a big disaster now. Slightly hapi cox i get to have 2 weeks of mc from work!

Well caught it from little kids who had it.. its either the little baby from aussie OR some1's little devil nephew (who claims its jus 'skin disease' when i ask wats those little dots all over his little body).

But i tink the little devil has a higher possibility of passing his 'skin disease' to me...

I'm starting to feel moldy stayin home for almost 1 week... wana go out but my ugly face jus stops me... face ar... when will recover?

:: My short short trip.. ::

2010-08-15T22:27:00.011+08:00

Recap of my short short trip to Malaysia over the last long weekend... Still quite hapi cox at least i stepped out of SG.. Haha..

1st day stopped by Johor for a day... eat, shop, movie, ktv...

1st food of the day! Lunch @ Mary Brown!!!! 2nd time eating it... still like its taste cox its less oily than KFC? ^^

Dinner @ Aijisen... it tasted better here.. cox its less salty?

The hotel @ some part of Johor.. dun ask me where.. i reali duno where tis place is. Haha.. nice entrance to the hotel but the room needs better sound proofing manz...

Morning of the 2nd day... On the way to Malacca!!

After nearly 3.5 hrs on the highway + 0.5 hr circling Malacca town.. finally found our hotel! Yeah pitstop!

Comfy room!!! Definitely a better night of rest in this room!

Scenery outside the room...

Ooooo... roadside stall right @ the entrance of our hotel... Poh Pia!... Super nice lor!

Only 4 ingrediants n it tasted heavenly.. The skin, the raddish, pork lard and chinese sausage..

Off to Jonker Walk!!!!

Before the walk... eat their famous Chicken Rice Balls! While eating, we realised during the evening there was no long queue as wat we saw during the afternoon.. hmm Malacca ppl dun like 2 eat chicken rice for dinner? Answer soon to be out...

Food... yummy....

Super delicious dessert... Chendo, the old style...

Answer: Becox u get more eating @ the road side stalls along Jonker Walk during evening & night!!! We made the wrong move 2 eat chicken rice for dinner! Should have ate in afternoon... yikes!

Walking ard & we come across Carrot cake... (it was our supper after the whole day of walking) not much seasoning tat KC commented its too bland... But i like!

Wat's tis? Dim Sum on the street?

How to buy & eat? Take a satay stick n plastic bag, poke anythin u like, eat or da-bao & than pay... so interesting!

Lok Lok cart! (wanted to eat but was still too full frm the chicken rice :p)

Night view of Malacca...

Shopping time! Their new shopping mall, Pahlawan.. its big! So big we almost go lost inside.. and i tink we din fully walked the whole mall... its too much like a maze...

1st supper we had - The innocent looking wanton mee @ Jonker Walk. Its amazingly tasty... Must try!

Day 3 - Final rounds ard Malacca... A peak @ the remaining sea view of Malacca... it used to be much more bigger & wider...

KFC @ Mahkota Parade Shopping Mall.. It tasted 90% same as SG KFC!

Verdict after the whole trip: Its nice to walk ard old streets @ ur own pace, eating food cooked in the way that u cant find in SG anymore.. Old school style. Its good memories...

:: Weekends ::

2010-07-26T22:52:00.005+08:00

Finally had a good good weekend...

On a single Saturday...

Played my new wii games... Rabbids and Cooking Mama. Super cute games... but aching hands till now.. oopsie...

Than off to PS to have a little relaxing tea session with the poly babes @ my new found tea place... Tea Cosy! Great place to relax, hang out, have desserts... & most imptly... tea! Love the little restuarant cum figurine shop's layout & food.

After the relaxing session.. its off to Jay Chou's concert in the evening! Woohoo!!!! (first time i took the Circle Line too! Interesting experience)

This round the concert has...

1. Better digital effects (lots of 3D images, videos, special effects...)
2. Great vocal from Jay (his voice was as clear as that from his CD)
3. Minimum hiccups thru-out (only 1 hiccup where his mic has no sound)
4. More songs!!! (lots of old classics & new hits)

Looking forward to more relaxing weekends & tea sessions...

Got another round of 'brain wash' from the tops, again.

Apparently i dun feel that 'washed' after hearing the comments, advises, suggestions...

How do a person change her facial expression while she's concentrating @ her work?

How do a person knows wat facial expression she has while she's walking around?

Talk too direct cannot... Dont communicate also cannot... Tell the truth cannot... Dress too ugly cannot... and thx for commenting i look dull...

Maybe i should go attend some acting course... so tat i can act a facial expression & body language, 8hrs while i'm working, tat will pleases everyone tat walks past me... not forgeting using the most tactful way to hide the truth of watever i'm planning to do from the other party.

Wat?! I'm no actress, please....

Starting to feel more n more like a PR... i call it "Publicity Relation"... Coz there's always constant pressure to portrait a good example of how a "good" staff should.

Maybe i should reali consider been an 'actress'... or put a switch on me so tat with a click of a switch, i can 'transform' into a bright, cheerful, friendly, wonderful HR, every single second, mins, hours while i'm in the office.

Good idea right?

:: Feeling stone ::

2010-07-15T22:48:00.002+08:00

Early morning began with a lousy email from some1 i dun reali like...

Geez after mths of doing 'it' a few times, than some1 tell me i did it the wrong way & the way of 'informing' me was kinda snobbish.

Funnily, the group of people tat r tagged to the same email, didnt come find me, didnt ask me in for 'kopi' session, didnt even mention a single thing to any1 else out of the loop.

Wat?!

The matter must have 'exploded' yday, after i off work. I'm glad i chose to pack & go the moment the late meeting ended yday. So glad i wasn't at the pt of 案发现场 and listening to tat person blabbering things r done wrongly.... y tis y tat...

I was jus the tool of passing information.... i feel so innocently wronged. Those that have worked for so so so many yrs didnt even know its the wrong way of doing 'it'.

Wat do they expect from some1 who joined less than a yr? (to be precise, its abt 11mths 25days)

Getting a bit easily pissed nowadays... 忍忍忍!

:: Count Down! ::

2010-07-13T22:39:00.003+08:00

Went to collect my precious ticket today....

Its just next week! Totally cant believe i waited more than a month for this ticket (and almost forgetting its happening just next week.. ooopsie).

This shall be my 3rd Jay Chou concert! Woohoo....

2nd time gona watch his concert alone... not tat i wanted watch alone but it was reali hard 2 get even 1 ticket. Half hour of frantic clicking over @ sistic's website only let me get 1 precious ticket. Moreover only 1 kind of credit card was accepted for booking.

But comparing the price i paid this round, i tink i got a better deal over the last concert's ticket (which was a re-sale ticket) where i got the premium seats. Oh well at least i got a ticket to this year's concert!

Finally an event tat reali perks me up...

:: Sniff ::

2010-07-07T23:05:00.002+08:00

Baby flu is very potent... I shall never underestimate tat again.

After spending jus a few hrs with flu baby Tim on Sun, i caught the flu the following day. 2 days of fever and still stuck with a running nose and awful cough now.

I tink tis is my 1st running nose for tis yr... *sniff sniff*

Dragged myself 2 work today & jus a few mins on the bus 2 office, i'm starting 2 regret tat i rejected my doc's offer for tat additional 1 day of MC. Why didnt i jus take tat additional 1 day for a thorough rest?!

But been the average workaholic, i still survived the whole day, almost forgetting i'm sick when busy trying to clear the outstanding work piled up while i was away...

2 more days to weekends... i wan my weekends!

:: Baking time! ::

2010-07-04T22:16:00.007+08:00

Nearly 6 months since i last bake so much.... Spend the whole weekends baking, baking & more baking...

Yesterday baked a coffee sponge cake... to curb dad's craving!

Today baked a apple cinnamon butter cake... for baby Tim's bday!

Today also baked a walnut butter cake... for the sake of clearing tat last piece of baking butter in my fridge (seriously cant rmb why i had tat piece of butter... hmmm).

1st time i bake so many cakes within the shortest timeframe!

The cake with most ingrediants goes to... the cake with the longest name, Apple Cinnamon Butter Cake!

The Ingredients.....

Everything in a bowl....

Mix mix mix....

Baking time!

Tata! Done! Completed!

Decorating the cake... i reali tried my best to write that 'M'... ooopsie...

Tim's bday home bash... cakes, cookies, candle...

Matching color cake icing & candle! Nice...

Tim feeling not tat enthu with the cake.... i tink this is his 3rd bday cake... haha

Am glad Tim's cake turns out not too bad (even though Tim dun reali like the taste). Spend the afternoon playing with Tim. At least he has no opposition with me accompanying him while his parents r busy elsewhere. Babies r hard to entertain... cox they run all over the place n u gota keep 100% attention on them.

Duno its the baking tats making me tired or its was becox playing with Tim?

Old liaoz... bones cracking -_-'''

:: It jus happened ::

2010-07-01T22:08:00.007+08:00

Jus when i was commenting tat FB spoils relationships yday, it happened today, TO ME. Oh gosh...

Was browsing thru an ex-friend A's FB when i accidentally saw B is in A's FB. Nothing special in seeing a link to common frien right? But apparently its the same B, with two diff accounts. I too have B in my FB, but it was a 'lifeless' account while in A's FB, B's account is full of 'life'.

I guess i'm rated as '路过的人' to B. Maybe B didnt wana make it too obvious tat people B knows but aint consider as frien, so B created a mock FB account to group 不相干的人们. -_-'''

I'm speechless....

After so many yrs, THAN i know....

But of cox i might be wrong... Its jus my guessing. But i'll never know i guess...

'Housekeep' my FB today... removed all non-active OR non-related people. I'm gona keep my FB as private as possible...

:: Chain of bad events ::

2010-06-30T21:55:00.009+08:00

When 1 team was trying very hard to build good rapport (not forgetting always getting lots n lots of pressure from the high up), another team makes the wrong move and everythin is RUINED.

And the 'best' part is... all is now being labelled as the worse group, irregardless who made all tis happened...

The unlucky grp being the most noisy & out-going grp, no way will keep quiet & let tis matter off easily. Its plain unjust that they have to be hold responsible!

So wat will the high up do? Got a feeling its goin be some unfair outcome, again...

***********************************************************

The start of the whole chain of bad events started with one thing --> FB. Seriously i tink FB can ruin one's reputation, can ruin one's work, it even can ruin one's friendship / relationship. Never ever comment anythin work related when u've added ur colleagues to ur FB or unhappy incident due to someone who is also in ur FB. Bosses if kapo enuf, they can check ur daily comments, even if u didnt add them to ur FB (so long they know ur nick OR they have a common frien tat u've added).

People SEE, rumors SPREAD, relationships SPOILED. (lucky i kept my FB only for friens & ex-colleagues!)

Another 'in' thing i dun reali fancy is tat 'fruit' hp. Ya its so fancy with all the wonderful functions, it too spoils relationships. Becox its so fancy, owners (most of them) are so engross in it, no matter where they are, wat they do, that little hp occupies their attention, time & space. I've more than once been bored during outings becox the owners r busy self-entertaining with their little hp. Modern ppl r losing the touch of real communication, physically face-to-face.

Well today broke my record of not working OT later than 8pm. Only managed to sustain minimum OT for 1 week. Yikes... Must lengthen my record. Less OT pls!

When Monday i was still pondering should i take a day off to rest, i managed to dragged myself to work for the past 3 days. I call tis sub-concious strength! With a series of events happening lately, i'm glad i'm still surviving, as a whole.

Trying to stay perky... I'll overcome all odds somehow or another. Am glad i didnt take MC nor leave tis month (despite kinda feeling a bit down). I will survive!

:: Duhz ::

2010-06-29T21:25:00.003+08:00

Not goin HK... a bit disappointed, a bit annoyed, a bit glad.

Disappointed cox some1 previously said i might be able to go. But than i sorta know 60% i wont be selected cox i heard a 'wind' last mth...

Annoyed cox the matter was kept hush hush from those not 'selected' to go. Come on... how in the world can any1 keep a secret when a big grp of about 50 people are preparing to go tour?! Moreover these ppl wont be in office for 1 week??! They should have annouced OPENLY who is going and 'advise' that those not going they have to stay in office 2 work while THEY go enjoy. DUHZ....

Glad cox my money is saved... was calculating my finances recently... aiming to save bigger portion of my pay. Not going = $$$ saved. Aiming to go tour with my friends (if i can find kakis!) to somewhere out there... maybe taiwan? maybe Maccau? maybe aussie? Aim aim aim!

Now tat my leave wont be deducted 'unnecessarily', means i can take leave! Should i take a day off to rest?

Yes? No? Think think....

:: Sceneries ::

2010-06-26T22:09:00.005+08:00

Peaceful day today...

Was recalling some past memories, places i've been, people i went with...

It doesnt matter if its jus a simple stroll along the park or walkin along orchard road,

It doesnt matter if its dining out @ an old hawker stall or a posh restuarant,

It doesnt matter if its taking a bus, taking a train or someone's own vehicle,

All it matters is who you are with or did those things with. Its the good companionship tat is more impt than what you are doing or where you are going.

Wasted the past few mths with a person who is a lousy companion. But lucky i still had enjoyment with my good friends and family. They are now my focus of attention. Time will make bad memories fade but wont make it permanently erased.

For example, apparently i can recall by heart the phone number of someone whom i used to be very close more than 10yrs ago. Only 9mths of encounter and the memories still sticks. Kinda weird i only remember tis person's number among so many friends...

Maybe tis is wat ppl call 刻骨铭心?

缘分啊....

:: Thoughts... ::

2010-06-22T22:34:00.005+08:00

While on the bus on the way home, i did some 'analysis' of my love life...

There was the guy who was right but the timing was wrong...

Than a wrong guy @ the wrong timing...

When finally met the right guy @ the right timing, everything else went wrong...

If i could turn back time, i tink many things would be different... Than again i only knew of tis thru experiencing all the ups & downs of life...

Conclusion? None i guess... jus wait and see... continue wait and see...

If nothing 'major' happens within the next few yrs, i shall start planning buying a hse on my own. That's like the 'back-up' plan. One big major 'project' that allows me to have at least 5 yrs of pre-planning too. I dun mind becoming a 包租婆.... Ha......

***** Back to today's happenings....

Its a super duper zombie day today...

Not becox i was constantly yawning despite jus drinking a cup of coffee (which is considered by 2nd cup of caffeine dose of the day).

Not becox i was asked to relief the receptionist every few hrs in between.

It all begins from 9am, where my 1st interview started. Than 10am another. Than 11am another. Than 2pm another. Than 3pm another. Than 4pm another. Than 6pm another.

And the 'fun' part was, all positions are almost different! I was at the brink of confusing one job description for another at each interview, especially from the 4th interview. Usually i dun like to conduct too many position interviews within the same day but today i was bombarded with a few interviews tat wasnt supposely should be mine.

Duno i should thx the recommenders or hate the interviewees for all turning up on the same day, unexpectedly.

Only one word to describe today: WHACKED

:: Headaches... ::

2010-06-21T22:32:00.010+08:00

I suddenly misses my blog... so here i am blogging again. Nearly 3 mths frm the last blog.

I went Korea (which is fun!),

I had another D&D (which is tiring again!),

I found the old-skool KFC taste again! (finally they switched back the real original taste!),

I 'erase' some1 out of my life! (the 2nd time, PERMANENTLY tis time!),

I set new resolutions for the remaining yr (rest n more rest, as usual!),

and lastly, I'm still @ the same job
(ya i cant say i 'love' my job but here i am still stuck @ the same place)

In a blink of eye, its nearly 1 yr since i'm with tis co... time passing SUUUPEEEER fast to realised i'm still HERE.

Some1 asked wat is my plans next but i cant tink of any @ the moment. So i guess i'll continue be stuck @ wat i'm doin until one fine day i wan a change. Not now cox i'm not in a mood for a change, yet.

Being down with a serious headache for a week. Some1 is giving me a bad headache & i seriously hoped with the matter slowly diminishing out of my life, tis bad headache will go away, permanently.

Age is getting on me.. i need a stable life.

:: Another mth ::

2010-03-31T23:20:00.008+08:00

Time passing again... 1 mth since my last entry...

Was feeling draggy than coz still got > a mth away frm my annual trip... But yeah its drawing near now! Jus 15 days more...

March is a super tiring dreading mth... But some nice things still happened in between. Reduction of any bits of my stress-es is like a blessing to me... Some things jus happened w/o much reasoning but i dun wana put my brain to ponder abt the same ordeal again. Jus go with the flow... Things will feel its nice if i feel its nice... So now i feel its nice... shall keep feeling the nice-ness unless someone change the mind, again...

Anyway went hill trekking @ MacRitchie last Saturday. Yes its trekking... not walking ard the flat flat reservior... Someone suggested we take Route 6 of the nature trails so i jus nodded with agreement coz on the map, it looks 'short'. I was soooooo wrong... Never trust the someone who looks smart.... Its a devil in disguise...

Brief description: Route 6 is approximately 7km. Rated moderate to difficult trekking & needing abt 3 - 4hrs to trek.

Before reaching the REAL treetop walk, its a more than 1hr walk to THE POINT....

Finally reached THE POINT! Bridge bridge bridge!!!!

The route back.... its full of UPs and DOWNs....

The creepy looking route of return....

Pretty sky.... the weather was bery nice tat day...

Hope of return!!!!!!

We're out!!!!! Finally!!!!!

Surprisely.... we only rested once and took less than 3 hrs to complete the whole trail... shorter than the estimated!

But....

Its darn tiring for the next few days.... literally cant feel my leg is my leg... Gimme back my leg!

:: Korea here i come! ::

2010-02-28T16:48:00.003+08:00

Booked my tour of the year!

Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Was still thinking tis year might not travel but than again, manage to still stick to my once a year trip plan.

Happy happy.... wanted to go Hongkong but than no good tour packages for it. So changed plan to Korea.

I totally cant believe i'm reali going Korea.... coz i planned to go Korea only next yr or when i can find ppl to go with.. but now plan brought forward!

Consider tis is not my 1st trip of the year (Genting been the 1st), it is the 1st trip via flight this yr. Exciting coz gona try an airline i've never taken before... Hope its as comfy as those I've travelled on so far...

Might have another unexpected trip this yr... Company planning go Hongkong? So maybe afterall i still get to go HK this yr.. *cross finger*

Talking abt the Genting trip.. it was the most tiring trip i've ever been. Wake up early morning everyday, end midnight everyday... spent 80% of the 4 days trip working lor... shag lor. But its an eye-opening cox the events r very grand.

First world hotel tat we stayed in....

The comfy room... the chambermaid r truly efficient.. coz every afternoon i came back from morning event work, my room is back to its original clean n neat shape... Only thing i hate is they just open the door after 3 knocks (when on the 4th day i woke up in the afternoon). Ya its my own fault for not putting the DND sign outside the door too.. oops..

Practicing @ the stage for the award presentation... dance ppl... dance! They're not pro dancers but office staff who loves to dance!

The 1st meal i had @ Genting... Mary Brown chicken... It tasted jus like the old times KFC... almost duplicate of that original taste.. They even serve the now-KFC-gone vege salad that i used to like! Now its no longer "used-to-like" coz it now available @ Mary Brown! I love!

BUT i do not hope to be nominated to be event committee again. Once is fair enuf... Its too tiring to cope with the original work load & the work of all the event planning... sleepless nights manz.. Though its over for almost 1 mth, the stress is still ard... Even the CNY long holidays wasnt enuf to totally recover.

I hope my korea trip will perk me up than!

:: Its the day again ::

2010-01-30T19:27:00.003+08:00

Age again...

Today is one peaceful quiet bday...

Went for a short relaxing window shopping alone @ JP, dye my hair in the afternoon (finally got the time to do it!) and gona spend the night packing my luggage for tmr.

Tmr going Genting! Not for fun but at least get to leave SG for a while. Place myself in another country maybe will make myself feel better. And seriously I wish for the whole company event to go smoothly for the next 4 days in Genting. Being the event committee is so stressful!!!!!!!!!

Time sure passing fast... next yr no more "2" in front of my age... argh...

Tis yr's biggest bday gift is my Wii! Gift from all my buddies & brothers...

Fun fun game.... i wana play it more often! Haiz not enuf time to totally enjoy it.... Argh the Co. event is eating up my precious time & energy.

Gona spend my CNY immersed in Wii. 6 days of holidays!!!! CNY come quick!

:: Finding new happines ::

2010-01-07T23:50:00.002+08:00

1st post of the new year!

Frankly speaking its been a hectic 1st week @ work in the new year...

But i'm trying to keep my mood up... dun wana be grumpy for the new year. I "love" my job, i "love" my job.... i "love" my job.....

Family aint doing well though... everyone has fallen sick.. yukes! I'm surrounded by viruses and seriously tink i'm gona be hit with the sickness bug sooner or later... Go away illness!!!!

Been feeling fuzzy for the whole week...

Sick family + hectic work = sickening feeling

BUT! i'm looking forward to sat... gona get my new style! still tinking how or wat i can do for a new style.. hmmmm... must do somethin diff...

On the way home today, i was tinking i should get a new yr resolution and i've decided i should find a new form of happiness. Still havent get back my glowy self. I hate the dull feeling... So i dont want just find happiness... it must be something new. Something tat can motivate myself to feel glowy again.

All the years i've been happy with the same form of happiness i'm getting but someone came along & sorta changed tat form of happiness. Now with that someone gone, i tink i should get another new form of happiness instead of going back to the original form of happiness. Complicated it seems but it jus seems like a logically thing that i should do.

Life is all about moving on.... and on... and on....

One whole year to find my new happiness.... ganbatte!!!!!

:: New familar routine ::

2009-12-19T21:58:00.005+08:00

Tossing the new lifestyle & heading towards a new familar routine...

It feels kinda strange when a familar person suddenly steps out yet not totally out of your life. Still there but in a different status...

It also feels kinda strange to be back to the routine lifestyle... familar yet awkward...

Sun to Fri still not tat bad but Sat feels so, weird.

诫掉习惯需要耐力, 诫掉人则需要勇气与时间

But its still feels gd to pick up e routine again... relaxing & comfortable...

Last Sun we had our last 'official' outing together. Up to the highest bridge in SG.. Henderson Wave...

平常心拍了平凡却有意义的照片....

One of e highest point we went together... Leaving our footsteps as memories...

Our 1st & last "official" photo together...

We spent our last peaceful comfortable "official" day together on a windy sunny+rainy day...

Next time if we are to come again, together.... it'll be a different feeling.

A friend with familar feelings yet forgotten...

:: Back to Original ::

2009-12-07T23:06:00.003+08:00

I tink i need my norm life back...

Not tat i'm resistant to changes..

I tink I'm a better person diverting my attention to all those that are impt to me instead of focusing majority of my attention to just ONE.

Lately am not feeling glowy at all.. i'm losing my happy glow... I dun like the dull feeling...

There are those who lives better with a small group... there are those who lives happier with a big group.. I seriously believe i'm one who will be more lively revolving ard the lifes of many people. Call me kapo or watver but I jus like to be part of everyone's life, be happy when they're in joy, be ard to comfort them when they're sad.

Switching back to my norm life aint easy too.. Life is never wat u picture & plan for. Its prompt to changes, prompt to incidents & twisted events.

Maybe all i need to a person who can is more fitting to my lifestyle. Either tat or I rather be back to my original state of life. Less worries, more time, more enjoyment...

I hope the new year will be a better year...

:: Scent of the kitchen ::

2009-11-23T22:16:00.001+08:00

Very long didnt cook... many many months...

Suddenly had an urge to cook something...

So despite been tired after work & its near to 9pm, i still happily chop the ingredients & fry a plate of green bean noodles...

Yummy... i miss my own cooking...

2009-11-19T23:30:00.004+08:00

1st time attending the company Sales Party... reali eye-opening...

Why?

Imagine swamped by hundreds of chio bu... reali reali chio...

All very high even be4 the event started... All dressed super hot/elegant..

Its even more amazing watching them perform.. its either very HOTZzzz... or very PROFESSIONAL...

There's bikini babes dancing... flame throwers... acrobats... anythin i've seen pro actors perform, i seen my outlet staff doing it.. amazing..

Despite my team only putting up a simple 10mins dancing & acting performance, we won a $100 consolation prize! Better than nothing... competition is super strong even for the consolation prize ^^

Next party will be the D&D @ Genting... lucky i dun have 2 perform!

:: Peaceful life ::

2009-11-06T00:18:00.003+08:00

Suddenly the urge to live a more peaceful life.

Not mandune, nor monotone...

Just less stress, more relaxation...

Having more time for myself...

When people whom i dedicated my precious + limited + scarce time to doesnt appreciate it, its a sucky feeling.

Not connecting with people nowadays... duno wats wrong..

Too busy? Too tired?

Lacking some motivation & support...

Feeling a bit crappy...

Those closest whom supposely can give me support is giving me stress instead...

At the end of the day, its still the best buddies who lend the supportive shoulders. I'm so lucky to have them as friends... Friends are so very impt!

:: Gift ::

2009-10-25T17:04:00.003+08:00

Found the pretty shawl i saw last week on a lady (whom i duno la). I was totally mesmerized by its checkered design & color..

Din expect it's frm Uni Qlo... pretty pretty!

And he paid for me ^^.. so i guess i'll consider it as a gift ^^

And i tink its his 1st gift to me.. cant recall receiving anythin frm him so far.

LOVE MY NEW SHAWL!!!

Coz its chio ^^

Coz he bought it for me ^^

1 mth din update my little blog. Basically not much has been happening lately. Not because i dun wan to.. its coz...

I DUN HAVE THE TIME FOR HAPPENINGS!!!!

Feeling kinda depress my life now is more mundane than my past. Work is draining the life out of me.. Gona draw out the following LIFE PLAN:

AIM: Better time management!!!!
GOAL: Spend more time with those i love... family, friends, him, all who i havent been going out with!!!!
TARGET: Work more efficiently so i can OT less!!!!!!

Seriously needing some encouragement n less naggings & complains from the love ones... Not tat i dun wana spend time with all.. i dun even have time for myself for a decent, slow, enjoyable dinner every weekday night!

I need work-life-balance... WORK & LIFE & BALANCE, all separately in need...

Well finally uploaded all the pics i took for the past mths... see below bah...

:: Past food updates... ::

2009-10-13T23:27:00.001+08:00

18 Sep - Banquet foodcourt @ Parkway Parade

The whole idea of goin Parkway Parade is coz I never reali been there. Not as in never ever but the last n only time i went there i jus pass by some carpark lot. Din even walked ard the area. I tink i nag enuf to convince him to bring me there to c c eat eat... haha..

Introducing the super big plate Mee Robus!!!! Gosh its reali a big plate lor. Enuf for 2 person or maybe 3 if all r not big eaters. The pic cant reali describe the actual size & portion. If considering the normal plate portion, this one is ard 2.5 to 3 times more. Quite delicious...

Interesting to say the same mee robus stall also sells grass jelly n bean curd... wat a weird selling combination. But i have 2 admit even their grass jelly n bean curd taste as nice as their mee robus..

25 Aug - Kenny Rogers @ Suntec

1st time to Kenny Rogers! Pass by the place uptimes but it never occurs to me to eat in there. Well the food isnt tat bad. Apparently the side dishes tasted more like the main course (which was supposely to be the chicken).

8 Aug - Canele @ Robertson Quay

Back to the Robertson outlet! Love its atmosphere... Its so nice to gather with good friends, eat desserts n have a hearty chat over what's happening... relaxing... I'll never get sick of their savory & sweet crepes.. yummy!

31 Jul - Shokudo Restaurant @ Raffles City

Not the 1st time here... love its rosti + sausages. A must try!!!!!

:: Pieces of Korea ::

2009-10-12T23:56:00.003+08:00

90% of the colleagues went korea... Company trip for this year...

Didnt get to go coz i'm still a newbie.. But they're nice enuf to bring me lots of gifts frm korea!

:: The Sun, the Beach, the Nua-ing

2009-10-12T23:01:00.006+08:00

2nd visit to Harris Batam! This time slept @ their new wing... 1st overseas outing with him...

From the exterior, the new wing look like some contempory condo while the old wing is 80s style apartments. Fact is, the room's interior is almost exactly the same for both old n new wing. The only major difference is the room's view. We're lucky to get a beach view. Though the beach is not tat pretty, at least its not the swimming pool or some jus trees n earth view.

Stroll along the beach... nua here n there... eat n drink... time really past fast despite its jus relaxing...

Seriously we dun need to bring any money there coz there's nothing to spend on since our package includes unlimited free flow of drinks & food. Wanted 2 go town but the bus was full. Than again nothing much 2 do in the town except more eating n some shopping...

I need a longer holiday... 2 days 1 night is jus not enuf...

Save save save for a loooooooong holiday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:: Sick & Tired ::

2009-09-03T13:24:00.004+08:00

Getting more & more tired… mentally...

Though getting more used to the new job, I can feel I’m actually pushing myself to accept the challenges, make the changes, do things I don’t think I like to do. But this is the facts of life. Do it or go hungry. So I shall accept it, do the change, action the plans.

Than there’s the issue with people I cared for.

Feeling kinda crappy that I gota be sandwiched between everyone. Feeling suffocated…

Why cant everyone just give me some space to breathe?

I have my temper too… so I hate it when people try to test my patience... test my tolerance level…

I’m just repeating the same ordeal I went thru tat x years ago…

Its stupid… its ridiculous… feeling silly I choose the same crappy ordeal all over again despite ditching it x years ago… and letting everyone, again, manipulating me the way they like & want it.

One fine day I might just do the same I did x years ago…

Now its just tat tiny bit close to tat point…

I need a break.. all alone...

:: Cool! ::

2009-08-23T18:05:00.003+08:00

After such a long long long wait....

The multi storey carpark tat was proposed to be builed 20yrs ago (even before we moved into this hse) is finally being builded...

The aircon i was nagging for every year is finally gona be installed this week...

The aircon bus interchange is gona be opened soon...

Cant wait for everything to be finished n working....

:: Tired Mind, Tired Body ::

2009-08-20T23:02:00.003+08:00

Getting more n more tired...

Literally exhausted...

The new job is really pushing me to age faster... Today mark the 1st mth I've worked here. Feeling so "old" already. Everyone just expects you to know everything, w/o even much explanation.

Than there's the thing abt most of the ppl thinks you've been here for mths... GOSH i'm only here for 1 mth... Do i look like i'm here long? Jia lats....

And not to mention i wasn't officially intro to the whole company yet I gota handle so many daily duties tat should have been handled by a confirmed staff. A bit cranky abt this... haiz..

But last tue my director suddenly asked how i was coping. When i said ok, she asked if i wana be converted. Hmm so i said ya. Than she said OK and she wana convert me than she walked away. Tat was the end of the conversation. So i'm now hanging in mid air. Not sure if i really will be converted... hmmmm..

Gona give up my online business... a bit sad but with so many things to cope with, i seriously need all the time & rest i can get.

Than the new best friend is "consuming" most of my time & energy... duno if its a good or bad things... *confused*

:: Adapting to changes :

2009-07-25T16:15:00.003+08:00

Gosh... i'm so tired...

Just one week @ the new workplace and I feel so much burden is thrown to me..

Struggling to cope with the new work...

Than there's the new best friend.. having fun with the new friend but its kinda tiring coz it breaks my routine lifestyle..

Struggling to cope with new person in my life...

And i seriously missed the peps @ the old workplace... miss the jokers.. Haiz..

So many adjustment i need to make.. feeling a bit overwhelmed by the changes..

Shag, tired, exhausted....

I need a BIG, LONG, GOOD, rest.... >.<

:: Free ride! ::

2009-07-12T23:45:00.005+08:00

长这么大... 还是第一次免费的哦....

Ride free on a taxi! Haha...

Though its like onli for 5-10mins.. but its still fun! I cant help laughing when i sat on KC's taxi...

Friend turned cabby is jus plain hilarious... i really dun mean to make fun of KC... ^^

Got a chance to touch 1 of the button of the taxi screen... soooooo interesting!

Yeah my 1st cabby friend! Next time can ask KC be my private cabby.. maybe i'll get some disc... haha...

:: Tiring ::

2009-07-11T14:04:00.004+08:00

A very interesting week has passed....

Visited my god-son! (he's so cute!!!!).

Surprised a colleague in office with a bday cake (she even cried coz she's too touched ^^).

Having lots of fun in office (while super shag by the heavy workload. OT-ing everyday!!!!!).

Caught a movie (Ice Age 3! Not extremely funny but its still nice & heartwarming to watch).

Late nights chatting with a new known friend (who i tink i can claim is gona be my new good frien. Ha...).

Finally cut & rebond my hair (yeah no more messy hair!).

Most interesting happening is visited lower peirce reservoir late at night... Fact is its creepy there at night coz there's not much lightings + the unlighted tower standing @ the entrance is way too eerie. But coz i'm so curious wats up there @ the top of the tower, i manage to force myself to climb all the way up the eerie tower. Man i didnt regret! The view is very nice in fact, though its so dark everywhere. The minimal lightings of park's lamp posts, road lamps & buildings far away actually makes the whole night scenery very tranquilizing. Good place for a chit chat with friends....

Shall visit the reservoir again.. but during the day time next round coz i wana have a closer look at wats ard ^^

:: BB Tim ::

2009-07-04T22:45:00.001+08:00

Labor is a painful thing for almost all woman...

1st time i c in person someone in pain... manz its really painful! Both me & the gona give birth MD...

MD was in pain while i lent her my hand to squeeze... or shall i say literally almost crushed my hands. Hahaha..

Thomson medical hospital again... all those i know who gave birth all came here.. famous place ar..

1st time c a gona give birth mum still in the mood to play facebook... Pei-fu manz... Cant wait to c bb Tim in person!!!!!!

:: Toa Payoh ::

2009-06-21T20:35:00.002+08:00

Went hse visiting today!!!!

Than again its more like 骗吃骗喝 day... muhahaha...

Ivy's block is so high! Abt 40 storey? Its so high they have to split into 4 lifts. 2 to service half of the block.. They even have a sky & roof garden sorta thing at level certain levels..

Free food.. There's more but i'm busy eating so i dun have time to take all the photos.. muhahaha....

This is life manz.. snack, food, aircon, large TV.... I love going Ivy's house!

:: Canele AGAIN! ::

2009-06-19T23:50:00.002+08:00

Have fell in love with Canele.. this round went to its branch at Robertson Quay. Its more spacious & deco is really cosy...

WN literally described Robertson Quay as a "Colony"... At 1st i thought wat a strange term to describe but upon reaching.. Oh gosh! Its really like a Colony. The houses ard r soooo european and all the ground floors r filled with pubs & restauarants. Its a great place to hang out! But better pick the night time coz its less hot + the lightings ard are really pretty.

This round tried another Savory Crepe (with ham, egg & cheese)...

Doria again (aka baked rice) but ordered the egg with tomato fillings....

Our feast of the night!!!!! Yes its jus two of us.. we're hungry mah.. haha....

End the dinner with dessert! Yummy choc sweet crepe...

We slacked at the place for abt 4hrs.. really comfortable...

Its really nice tat the place opens till so late on fridays. Imagine we left at abt 11pm yet the place was still packed with ppl.. super manz...

Looking forward to goin Canele Robertson Quay again!!!

:: Exception Day ::

2009-06-16T20:20:00.003+08:00

Took a day off to do two super no related matters....

Early morning was the task of helping grandparents "move house"... Am happy that we finally reunite grandpa & grandma...

Their new "neighbourhood"... a very calm & greeny place... Near our hse so its more convenient for us to give them our offerings in future.

I've never seen my grandpa's looks before until now. He looked charming in the photo.. Must have taken tat when he was still young. After some calculation, he passed away when he was ard mid 30s or early 40s.

I hope both of them are happy to be 'staying together' again ^^

After the ceremonies, its off to celebrate Father's Day @ Lao Beijing...

Buffet high tea on a weekday is ard $12 per pax. Not much variety but its enuf to make u bloat if u repeatly eat everything. Haha...

Their menu is kinda interesting (like some Wushu manual) & the atmosphere is really comfortable...

Too bad their normal menu is a bit steep else i dun mind dining in there with the family on other timings...

:: Very happening ::

2009-06-13T00:20:00.006+08:00

Another week over... yipee.. counting down the days i'm left in this funny (50% in a gd way & 50% in a bad way) office...

This week is pretty happening.. almost all the bosses (including mine!) arent ard! Everyone became very, ecstatic. In simple terms... they all very 'high'. Haha...

In the mist of been very high, the lunch kakis all got into a wu-ha thingy by the newly joined attention-seeking C. 1st was the very 'unqiue' dotty stocking + bright red dress... than was the 爆乳装... Its pretty 'distracting' to work. -_-'''

But her appearance sorta cleared the air between everyone due to the A & B incident.. Which is good! Coz its kinda awkward if they're too 客气with one another. ^^ Everyone is too busy gossiping the new news in town...

Just the 1 week here n attention-seeking C already created a waves of gossips everywhere...

Very interesting... cant wait for the bosses to return & look @ their reaction when they deal with attention-seeking C.

I only hope she will be less attention-seeking.. coz thats wat this dept needs, in order to better 'live' on everyday...

:: I'm not a fun spoiler ::

2009-06-07T23:42:00.004+08:00

Domo is our office's 1st & new mascot recently.... Here u see it 'working' very hard...

Disclaimer: That is not my desk... Its my colleague's...

Sometimes too much of fun can disrupt the efficiency...

Maybe i'm jus not as joyous as before... the age is really catching up. Maybe i'm jus being too serious with work.. hmm.. i duno..

But than again, wat position am i to comment? I'm leaving in another 5 weeks!!!!!!!!!!! I shall leave them to continue enjoy themselves in such a hideous working environment... Maybe tats wats keeping them 'happy' & the 'force' to let them stay longer in this place.

:: Canele ::

2009-05-31T22:56:00.001+08:00

Went to try out Canele @ Orchard... initially thought the price will be very high BUT its sooooo much lower than expected. So going there again! It's now my fav restaurant..

Total of 5 main/side dishes + 2 yummy deserts for only $100 (1 dish was free due to a monthly promo). The servings r quite big so while eating the main dishes we already regret we ordered too much food. Haha...

There's chicken crepes... which i ordered... very nice! Very big too...

Seafood baked rice... tasted yummy.. the seasoning was moderate so u can still taste the freshness of the seafood + the cheese wasn't too heavy...

Seafood pasta... very fresh seafood... like the baked rice, seasoning wasn't too overwhelming...

Club sandwhich... i love this! Tasty ham + egg + toast + fresh lettuce... yummy!

Macaroons & Blueberry cake... 1st try of macaroons! Not as sweet as i imagined. Depending on the flavor selected, some r really sweet but some r moderately sweet. So i guess they altered the sweetness to match local's taste bud. As for the cake, supposely its nice but i only took a tiny bite of it coz i know it has whiskey in it... NO ALCOHOL please.... The rest of the babes also dun dare to eat much of it. Only 2 'brave souls' took the challenge n finished the whole thing.

Crepes with choc & ice cream. Absolutely mouth-watering.. freshly made crepes with not too sweet ice cream & choc... Its totally my kind of desert...

I would love to end the whole afternoon's dining experience with a nice cup of hot tea but after spending nearly 2 hrs @ Canele with my stomach totally bloated.. i gave up the idea.

Saving the tea session for the next visit! So many other food i wana try... wait till i get my next pay. Must 1st save for shopping... ^^

Overall, Canele is a great place to hang out with friends.. the ambience is comfortable, the food is really delicious and the service is good too.

:: Grumpy ::

2009-05-28T22:50:00.002+08:00

I hate morning traffics... today's awful experience makes me hate it more. Left the hse @ 7am but i only reached the office @ 9am... If i take a cab or drive, the total time to reach there is barely less than half hr... How to not feel grumpy @ such early morning?! (and after been so terribly late, i still have to limp my way up tat irritating slope -_-''')

Even on days with no traffic jam, it still takes me 1.5hrs to travel to or fro... crap manz..

No matter how many times i change frm bus to train n train to bus... i jus cant shorten the traveling time... so sianz...

Another reason i dun really like the workplace is tat crappy slope & the canteen food dun have much variety. 1st time try the food @ their one & only eating place & i dun tink i'll fall in love with it, yet. And their price totally shock me.. How can a sch sell so ex?! (even food stalls @ Jurong Pt sell cheaper than them!) Haiz such a big place & there's only one extremely SMALL & STUFFY canteen. My previous sch (SIM) though campus isnt big, at least the canteen was big, bright, cooling, got lots of nice food & price much lower. Both r sch but the diff is so big. No wonder i dun c students hanging ard their campus...

Location, environment, food... non r attractive. Not to mention pay also crappy. Even friends r amazed by my lowly pay.. some even suggest i might as well work for Mac. -_-'''

I'm starting to feel comforting tat tis isn't a perm job... Jus need to tolerate another 1.5mths & i'm outa here!

Back to talking abt the slope, i really hate it. I was fine walking on leveled ground but after 'climbing' tat slope, my foot totally hurts. Than i was fine again during office hrs but when going home, i 'climb' tat slope down & again it hurt & swell up. Feeling so grumpy abt it.. Hope i can recover over the weekends & can stop the torture next weekdays...

:: Limping monkey ::

2009-05-27T23:05:00.005+08:00

Supposely to be enjoying my free day today, which i did.. until i sprain my left foot..

*&^$%(!&$....

What a "GREAT" day....

Gona be limping to work tmr.. and its my 1st official normal working hour somemore... Gota reach office before 8:30am!

Just great...

If i'm late due to the morning traffic, i cant even walk a tiny little bit faster to THE OFFICE up on tat slopey "HILL"...

I hate slopes... and the long distance aint making it any easier... who's the person who build the office? Make it so mafan to reach there... Tat person confirm never walk by foot.. coz its so hard to walk to the office... I hate the location...

I thought the Ngee Ann Poly Blk 72 slope is the last most slopey place i'll ever walk for 3 years and now here i am with a bigger 'challenge'.... Why must the office location make my life diffcult... At tis time, i really wish i can drive & own a car of my own. Than i can stop all the whining & complaining... -_-'''

:: 不公平的世界... ::

2009-05-23T23:43:00.003+08:00

1 week of work completed... 1 month & 1 week more... kinda feeling confused whether should i extend or not (if they do ask)...

That's becoz i neither really enjoyed the work NOR thoroughly hates it to the core...

The thing abt being a HR & given ALL the access to EVERYONE's records can be a gd & a bad thing. I can c everyone's personal records so i get to learn how to write better resumes & its really an eye opening what kind of jobs r out there (based on everyone's past job experiences)...

Than there's also access to everyone's salary.. i din mean to purposely c it but its there so i jus took a peak whenever i'm flipping & browsing for data here & there..

And its kinda irrating to c those who works the same post of u earning lots more than u though both of u r doing the same %$^#* work... it jus feel so unjust...

The words of the mgr said on the 1st day keeps ringing ard... "those outside r not performing gd enuf becoz blah blah blah... and i hope u can perform many times better than them..."

Than how come i dun get THEIR pay 呢? 都是temp... 待遇却不一样... Expect more frm me but pay them more? Hmmm tell me wats wrong with this situation?

3 simple words... 不公平!!!!

So i've decided.. forget it.. not abt forgetting abt tis matter, but to forget abt working hard for them. Why waste my energy on something meaningless...

But than there's still the gd pts abt tis job.. i get $$$ & experience... Very attractive plus pts in a way...

One more week of possible night shifts again.. Wed's not so hapi night shift experience is very much annoying. When everyone's happily calling cab to go home, there i am stuck with taking bus home. And if i knew i cant claim cab, i wouldnt have agreed to night shift. It only adds the unfairness. And its very miserable eating DINNER @ nearly 10pm, ALONE, in a place where ppl r happily dining in grps for SUPPER. Me dinner, them supper... sucky feeling. I tink everyone's thinking y tis woman is eating noodles alone at such late night in a grumpy face. Haiz.. Next time with night shift i'll jus go home straight..

Just 1 week of work & i have tons of things to complain abt.. yet i cant say i totally hate tis job either.. maybe i'm a 贱骨头的人吧... meant to suffer hardship..

:: Slacking no more ::

2009-05-14T01:25:00.006+08:00

Got the news I was hired...

Mixture of feelings... Not extremely happy or unhappy. Just feel normal.

Maybe coz tis is jus a temp job... after 2mths its back to free time again, if i still havent get a perm job, which i somehow hope i WILL get 1 by then.

So contradicting with myself now. I should feel glad I'm earning again (& lucky for finally getting a job) but its kinda sad tat i'll be spending most of the time slogging in an office again.

Maybe tis job will get me back to the working lifestyle momentum.

I hope i will survive peacefully these 2 mths...

Will miss my high tea weekdays with YC & HJ... awwww....

[Cute cloud i saw on the highway... look like a cat?]

:: Another month passing ::

2009-04-23T00:28:00.002+08:00

Back from Taiwan! Had great fun there... After coming back for a week, i finally put my hands into sorting the photos. Fact is ppl r already nagging to c the photos.

Wait a while more ppl! Soon soon.. after i finish tagging all the 700++ photos... Its a lot le! Moreover i 自告奋勇 telling my family i'll do a slideshow VCD. Hmmmm.... its one tiring task...

Updates of the trip will be done with the pics! Have more patient ppl!

Well this one week back in SG sorta busy... meeting friends, managing my biz, holding bazzar, and i finally got arranged for interviews! So happy.. finally getting some response. 2mths of 'hard work' finally is reaping some rewards.

So the 1st interview went horribly terribly wrong. When shortlisted, i was happy. Din expect they will shortlist me. I jus sent my resume out to try luck. Anyway I expected more from tat BIG MNC lor (though be4 goin i knew my chances of landing tat job is way way zero). The fact tat it supposely portrait such a high end status to the public.. All i can say is the HR needs more interviewing training tactics... Its one of the worse interview i've ever attend. Can even say its the 1st time i c such rude attitude during an interview.

I have to agree with HJ (after grumbling to her abt tis for nearly 2hrs) tat the person is totally inspired by the movie "The Devil wears Prada"... With tat attitude, tat dress code.. the interviewer was like the cheapo copycat version of Miranda Priestly. No offence, seriously....

Throwing aside the lousy 1st interview... another 1 is coming up tis friday. Not expecting a lot coz its a temp assignment. But got something to do better than nothing. I gota do somethin to stop ppl frm nagging at me to get a job. I'm already trying very hard!

:: Songs of the moment ::

2009-03-30T23:27:00.005+08:00

Really into 2 songs lately.. love the rhythm & melody... and especially the lyrics! Very catchy tune that play in my mind easily..

这是一个没有答案的问题我感觉我变了谁让我变了
原本这是一个没有答案的问题却被你解开了简单的解开了

你走过来带着和别人不同的对白
你甚至不让我知道你对我有多好

慢慢的这份爱悄悄的住下来
深深的在心里没人看的出来
安静的但却一直都在是你默默的爱

慢慢的这份爱已经变成依赖
浅浅的笑容里却让我充满期待
不用说我就能够明白你默默的爱

这是一个没有答案的问题
我感觉我变了谁让我变了
原本这是一个没有答案的问题

如果我说爱我没有如果
错过就过你是不是会难过
若如果拿来当借口那是不是有一点弱

如果我说爱我没有如果
真的爱我就放手一搏
还想什么还怕什么快牵起我的手

有人说世界上最遥远的距离不是生与死
而是我就站在你面前你却不知道我爱你
我常说如果人类连爱一个人都被自己绑住
那世界末日已来到不需要等到地球毁灭掉的那天

如果我说爱我没有如果
错过就过你是不是会难过
若如果拿来当借口那是不是有一点弱

如果我说爱我没有如果

错过错过错过错过错过
我比你更难过不会一错再错
嗯这次不要再轻易错过

我常说如果人类连爱一个人都被自己绑住
那世界末日已来到不需要等到地球毁灭掉的那天

别怕太快乐(别怕太快乐)
别怕失去我~~

如果我说爱我没有如果
错过就过你是不是会难过
若如果拿来当借口那是不是有一点弱

如果我说爱我没有如果

2009-03-28T22:22:00.002+08:00

After one whole week of 僻关修炼 last week, appts started to pile up and this WHOLE week was spent 'fulfilling' all the appts i've delayed...

Though the piano exam din went tat well (sorta expected), i still hope i can make a pass... I NEED TO PASS! The idea of retaking is making my giddy. Haiz.

Though not tat happy abt the exam, life still gota go on right? No pt being moody over wats over & done with...

Back to wats happening tis week....

Mon was spent doing a supposely to be cooking lesson. MD the newly hsewife had a 'fishy' prob & i went over her hse to 'teach' (more like literally help) her. In the end, i whipped up 2 dishes for the couple. Became the "call home chef"? Haha... Phew luckily everythin is edible & am glad no one complained the food & happlily finished everything.

Seriously its hard to use someone else's kitchen equipment. The torture of getting accustoming to the diff shape & sizes of the knife, pots & pans... This reali made me admire those tv chefs who goes to diff houses to cook for ppl. They r so talented!

Tue had a simple lunch with HQ... Havent had mac lunch for ages... cant reali rmb when's the last i had it... was it during CNY? hmmmmm....

Wed's cake baking turned into movie & food outing with HJ. Detroit Metal City rocks! I laughed until stomach manz.. so funny... and crude too. Not a movie for the TOO young i'll say. Haha...

In any case, I still cant seem to accept the leading actor (Kenichi Matsuyama) is the same actor for Deathnote. The black eye skinny pale face "L" = Nerd nerd mushroom head sissy = Bizarre looking DMC lead singer? I cant match all three as 1 guy... Unbelievable... His acting skill is unmatchable... truly...

And tat foul-mouthed lady record manager of DMC (Yasuko Matsuyuki).. took me a while to realised who she really is! Amazing acting skill... 1st time c her in such.. ermmm.. "outstanding" acting...

Thur be an "escort" to MD.. went ard places to eat & read some books... simple relaxing day...

Fri finally spent the whole day playing PSP.. so eagar to finish Brave Story.. soon soon!

And in the mist of being so busy everyday... i managed to watched a few movies & dramas online.. Suddenly so into all the shows i've missed last yr. Keeping myself FULLY OCCUPIED.

Of all, i reali like Marley & Me. Its book long catch my eye when it was published last yr. Wanted to buy it but i thought i'll wait for a discount. Now tat the movie's out, i doubt the discount will come any sooner.. Darn should have bought the book before the movie launch...

Another week before i fly off the the country i've been wanted to go every yr.. Cant wait to start packing my luggage!

:: Evil doesnt pay ::

2009-03-18T22:03:00.003+08:00

Interesting to hear a supposely to be DEVASTATING news but in a way make me wana cry out loud.... THERE'S STILL JUSTICE IN THIS WORLD!

In a way i really wana pity tat 'poor' soul... but my conscience doesnt wan to. So in a mist of struggle, i conclude i should pity tat 'poor' soul because its doesn't pay to be evil (like tat 'poor' soul').

But i'll still take a min to laugh at tat person's retribution before wishing tat person 'good luck' and 'all the well'.

My 1st bazzar experience yday!!!!

10:30am - Arrived @ Kembangan CC. Yes its at the EAST... Yes i live in the WEST... But stall rental was ony $4.. so who's to care the distance?

Supposely to only have 1 table but the nice person in charge gave us another free. Happy! Took less than 15mins to set up the stall. Literally jus dump everythin onto the table & hang the prettier stocks on the rack....

10:45am - Opened for business! HJ was very lucky to 'open' sale while we were setting up the stuffs..

12 plus - No sales for me yet! Argh.. but got hungry instead so had lunch..

But lady luck struck me while i'm eating! My 1st sale! Very nice lady bought a dress and 2 belts w/o needing much persuasion. She even came back an hr later with a frien & asked her to buy another belt.. 2nd deal made.. happy happy...

1 plus - A maid pass by while making a call.. In the midst of talking on the phone n randomly browsing, my 'best offer' for the belts totally caught her attention. 3rd deal made! Sold 3 belts.. woohoo...

2 plus - Two young gals walked pass & 1 got interested in my bag. Didnt buy on the spot but she walked back again mins later to c c again.. Seeing her so keen, i offered her free belts if she buy the bag. Frankly speaking, i wasnt the 1 who persuaded her to buy.. her frien was more than helpful in persuading her for me. Haha... 4th deal closed!

3 plus - An aunty caught eye on my bag while buying VCDs from HJ. Didnt make deal coz she wanted too much of a discount... But the cunning aunty walked by again while we're clearing the stall & insist i sell it to her. Haiz oh well... got sell better than didnt sell.. Count her lucky i was in a good mood ^^ 5th & last deal closed!

4pm - Closed for business.

The experience was interesting.. Had fun tending to the stall though the sales wasn't good. But at least made a bit of profit. Good for a nice meal? Hahaha..

Based on the regular bazzar stall holders, usually there's a big crowd but apparently yday duno where all the maids, rich tai tai & studying students went. Maybe coz its the school holidays so everyone went on a tour.. maybe coz there's the big IT fair somewhere.. maybe maybe...

Hoping for better luck next month!

:: Dreams ::

2009-03-04T01:00:00.004+08:00

An evening spent gossiping & chatting with the babes @ 1 of our fav hangouts...

Simply luv Sun with Moon's high tea menu... I'll totally miss it when i start work (when i do get a job!).. no more nua-ing there on a lazy weekday afternooon than.

Today than realised YC actually shares the same thoughts as me for a dream (or rather unusual) wedding. Totally cool coz our dreams r almost exactly the same.

Its a waste of money & time to host a traditional banquet... (not to say its also BORING!)

Its a waste of money & time taking wedding album... (tiring activity...)

Its nice to have a private & unique party held somewhere pretty... (the beach, the botanics..)

Its lovely to have a live band during the party... (live piano & violin concerto!!)

But frankly speaking... i've been to soooo many weddings but non is anywhere near my dream wedding. Oh ya maybe the only time i've seen such weddings are on the TV....

Sometimes i wonder y ppl r willing to spent over tens of thousands on their wedding yet it turned out jus another plain boring (typical) wedding event... They should use the money do something more interesting!

Those who havent marry... start thinking more creatively!!!!

:: Adding the pounds ::

2009-02-28T23:55:00.002+08:00

Supposely to go Sentosa and "burn some calories"....

Becoz we cant get our free tix to Sentosa...

Becoz it rained....

Becoz we had cravings...

The whole day end up into a food frenzy trip...

(photos uploading in progress.....)

:: Race to the destination ::

2009-02-25T22:19:00.004+08:00

Experienced an interesting ride on my way to the piano exam school....

Yes its racing car seats....

No its not a racing car tat i'm riding on (i mean its totally impossible right?)....

Its non other than the most average public transport... Yes its a BUS!

The marketing team is so smart to convert the whole interior bus seats into racing car seats... even the floor was made like race track...

Very interesting indeed...

Too bad my ride on the interesting bus was merely 15mins... the seats r reali comfortable ^^

At the music school, its the place i dreaded most. Not because its the place where i failed my piano the 1st time... nor how small the place is... nor how ex it is to book the room for half an hr practice ($18!!!! blood suckers!)...

I totally dun like their piano. Cannot loud, cannot soft.. feeling kinda sucky i'll be experiencing the same ordeal 2 yrs ago... hope i'll get a nice friendly examiner tat day... *pray hard*...

Hmm am thinking if i should wear a pretty dress on the day of exam. I mean most of the kids tat went for exam do dress up a bit... 1st impression does matters?

My dresses are all accumulating dust in my wardrobe. Its time for some "rampaging"...

:: Muffins or Cupcakes? ::

2009-02-23T12:27:00.004+08:00

Spent the whole day at YC's hse. The baking activity didnt turn out as well as planned but we had lots of tea & a good time chit-chatting & gossiping ard.. haha

YC's homemade stir-fry pasta... very nice! Very fresh sashimi from the supermarket... delicious... Food deco on the plate by me! (YC's food turned out looking more yummy on pic... hehe)

Apple cinnamon muffins baking in progress.....

Red berries tea with our homemade muffins...

Choc muffins.... lots of choc chips...

Fact was the apple muffins turned out weird. Edible but not like a muffin nor anything like a pastry. Quite sad it didnt turn out like the usual way when i did it back at my own home. Not used to another oven?

Luckily the choc muffins came out like a muffin but its so small tink i'll call it a cup-cake.

HJ's uncle wont eat the muffins after having tried our soft cookies (tat we made last week). Maybe he's developing a fear from our homemade pastry. Haha...

:: Every stress needs a cup of tea ::

2009-02-20T23:52:00.005+08:00

A recruit agent called yday! Soooooooooooooooooo hapi..

Finally SOMEONE called after sending out so many resumes... Hope i'll get more calls. No guarantee its a job offer but at least i get some response out there..

My recruit agent was quite nice so i recommended HJ to her too. The agent was quite efficient! Called HJ within a few hrs later after seeing her... Reali pray hard both of us can get a gd job soon.

After the recruit-thingy, both of us walked over to Pasta Cafe for high-tea (which was supposely to be lunch but its too late to order from their lunch hour menu...) :

Delicious chicken sandwhich & fries....

Yummy seafood platter (half eaten.. it was more than this. hahaha).....

Relaxing the remaining of the high tea with Jasmine-Rose tea....

and ice-cream brownies!

The whole meal cost ard $15-$18 per pax. Not extreme ex but after tis meal i'm starting to REALLY plan stop over-spending UNTIL i get a job.

Maybe i should jus stay home everyday... hmmmmmm

:: Looking forward... ::

2009-02-16T16:44:00.008+08:00

Its confirmed.. I'm going taiwan! Yipeee...........

真要感谢我的衣食住行的"老板门"...

that's 还在养我的父母!! So happy they're sponsoring me ^^

Sorta unexpected i'll be going so soon... much sooner than i've planned. But who cares when i go. So long i can go!

Supposely wasn't involved in this taiwan trip but coz i accompany parents to the travel fair yday, they asked if i wana come along while they were signing up for the tour package.

Free one of coz must go la! Ermmm not totally free though.. will need to pay back the parents after i get a job. Hmmm.. soon soon....

So excited abt the trip... finally get to visit Taiwan.. the country i've been wanting to go since my poly graduation... 8 days tour gona visit....

Sun Moon Lake.....

Kenting....

night markets.... hot spring... farms & theme parks... etc etc etc....

April... cant wait for april to come sooner....

:: Songs & Cookies ::

2009-02-13T21:27:00.004+08:00

Been so long since i last ktv... went with bro yday...

Sing sing sing @ K-box...

Was hoping for the usual japanese bento set for their k-lunch but they sort of changed their menu... new sets wasnt tat bad but the portion was kinda small...

Bro's rice burger with unagi & egg + nuggets (extra becoz the burger was TOO small?)... tasty!

My chicken rice... not bad though tasted quite "commercial"...

Today spent the whole day baking v-day cookies with HJ.

Seriously speaking, i never reali succeed in baking this form of choc chips cookies, let alone looking almost identical to pic on the packaging of the cookies mixture. The form and taste could match famous amos!

The truth is, the success is becoz we used ready-to-bake mixture. Hahaha...

Usually i'll find recipes & buy all the necessary ingrediants to mix myself but since ready-made mixture is the most convenient & easiest way of baking, decided to give it a try ^^

The only thing i wana complain is the sugar is way too much! Too bad we cant reduce the sugar amt since it pre-mixed in the mixture.

After some self packaging (bought pretty boxes & wrappers), the cookies looked 'expensive' enuf to be pretty good v-day gifts... Low cost high quality gifts! Hehe...

:: Tea anyone? ::

2009-02-11T00:04:00.005+08:00

A simple skin, again...

Cant find any skin tat suits my 'unique' taste.. oh well maybe i'll keep on sourcing...

Finally took some time to archive most of the old posts... its nice reading thru old memories... mostly i've totally forgotten..

We cant turn back the clock.. but only can continue forword...

希望今年会更好.....

Few days ago while helping bro check out our shared mobile plans, i realised i can upgrade again! Woohoo!!! But no money to change hp... awwwwwwwwwww.....

忍! 忍! 忍!!!!!!

Between touring & getting a new hp... i hope touring will happen 1st... I wana go taiwan!

:: Mood of the Hols ::

2009-01-29T15:46:00.007+08:00

The week before CNY was hectic... Lots of groceries shoppings to do, lots of last min cleanings & bakings.. so glad its finally all over. I thought i'll get the 'strength' to spend some time change my blogskins for the new year.. but... nvm shall re-used 1 of my old fav blogskin again.... ermm till my mood reali comes to source for a new blogskin. Haha..

Had my 2nd bday celebration at Thai Express last Wed. Quite sad one of the babes cant make it. But celebrating with the two Mrs is also fun. Lots of gossiping abt their newly married life. Gota eat this year's 1st bday cake!

Yes its small.. but i like small cakes ^^

For the whole past 1 week (which includes pre-CNY, CNY & post CNY), the most happening thing has no watsoever relation to CNY. It was tat 惊魂 Saturday morning, 24 January... Its a BIG matter to every1 at my block, it even made it on the local newspaper the next day (not the headlines though), BUT I till now still duno who's the idiot culprit.

It took me at least 2 days to get over the uncomfortable feelings. How annoying...

Imagine sleeping in a deep slumber than suddenly u hear someone shouting "着火了! 快逃!"....

It was immediate awakening for me. I was too shock to even ask wat the hell is happening. Seriously i now know my HP is SO IMPORTANT to me. More impt than anything else i posses. Coz after dashing out the hse, I instinctively went back into the hse again 2 grab my HP.

Yes it was the HP. Only the HP. I also duno y i didnt even thought of grabbing my wallet or hse keys. Hmmmm...

The real freaky thing happened when suddenly the power suddenly shutdown & all the staircase & corridors turn into plain darkness. Everyone's reactions in such dark & smoky environment? Very very very frighten screams & shouts for that 1 min when the lights suddenly went out....

Ermm i din had time to scream coz i was engross in closing & locking my hse (at tat pt & moment, i still can tink properly must lock hse in case of thief. Haha). Come to tink of it, why was i the 1 staying behind to lock the hse? I only recall my mum waiting for me at the staircase. Where are the men??!!

Much luck was upon my family.

1st, the fire happened on the 3rd floor so my hse is way far far away frm it.

2nd, one of the 2 staircase exits tat wasnt blocked by the fire, 1 was beside my hse.

3rd, the burning area happened on the 3rd floor below my next door neighbour so only the staircase & walls directly above it were toasted black (yea the flames & smoke went all the way up to the 10th floor).

4th, my parents were actually preparing to go out when the fire started so they were 1 of the few 1st batch of ppl to notice the fire. Very lucky i must say.

5th, our family car happened to be parked at another carpark the night before coz the lots at my block were full. So while most ppl are stuck at the scene, with no shoes / still wearing pajamas / no money or valuables / no teeth (the elder peps) / messy hair.. we could drive off to elsewhere to have breakfast.

So the whole matter taught me many things:

1. Its a better choice to wear t-shirt & shorts to sleep (my usual habit!). At least u dun have to worry looking awkward wearing ur pajamas while running for ur life.

2. Always have ur valuables kept near to ur bed (so can find & grab easily while running away)

3. Dont put big objects near any exit path! Irregardless its inside or outside ur hse, especially the corridors & staircases. Having a cleared pathway to run for ur life is VERY IMPORTANT. Never block urs & ppl's escape path.

The whole stupid fire started coz 2 selfish neighbours put lots of furnitures at the corridors. 1 of the family's furniture started the fire & it spread to the other family's "trash" and the whole fire expand within secs. Lucky my block is spread into 3 sections with 4 staircase spread out far frm each other so everyone could escape safely. Else if the burning staircase is the only exit.... its unimaginable.

This experience is gona be life-time UNFORGETABLE.

A very blazing "旺旺" Chinese New Year.... Huat Ar!

:: Memories ::

2009-01-16T00:09:00.002+08:00

Have been getting lots of flash-backs lately...

Some which happened recently, some which happened so long ago tat i thought i've forgotten them...

Getting edgy over all these memories. Its a reminder tat when things have passed, there's no way of turning back the clock.

Sometimes i reali wonder if i have chosen a diff path or action, maybe i wont become wat i am now.

Argh.. one of the season i rather not look forward to is jus round the corner... and its also not tat fun when the day in honors of mum's greatest effort is also drawing near...

So feel like staying home the whole week... away frm all the gossips of the 三姑六婆.... every yr, tat particular days, i have to withstand the repeatly annoying 'Q&A sessions'. One by one they will 'remind' me...

1. my age
2. my qualification
3. my lifestyle
4. my job
5. my future

And to end all these, they jus have to compare among every1 of the same generation...

At tis very 敏感 age now.. i can already predict wats the most 'famous' qns & so predictable 'advice' i will get tis round...

With almost all the cousins setting very good 'examples' of leading a typical lifestyle (study than work than attached than married than have kids), i seriously dun feel blessed with so many relatives

So not in a festive mood....

Only thing i'll looking forward is counting & opening my presents tis mth ^^

:: New taste of the yr ::

2009-01-10T14:53:00.005+08:00

Mood came to bake more cookies... Made almond biscuits tis round:

Bro very 赏脸 and finished the whole bottle within 2 days.. i barely ate more than 10pcs lor! Suddenly feeling super lazy to try more new flavors.. the lazy bug has set in once again... The week be4 CNY is sooooo gona be a busy week...

The convenient of the nearby mega mall is also making me more lazy to travel to town. Har....

Went to tried two new cafes @ the new JP extension recently.

Lai Lai Beef Noodle:

I love it... totally love it... must be the best beef noodle i've eaten so far... I tink i can have it everyday, if it aint tat pricy... It was ard $14 for a cup of bubble tea +1 bowl beef noodle + 1 big plate side dish (choice of fried chicken chuncks, fried tofu, etc). Very fulfilling actually.. or rather overly too much food for a normal eater like me :p

Of coz the price matched the quantity... Have it as a once a day treat is gd ^^

BakerzIn:

THAT red saucy thingy is NOT a sauce... its actually tomato SOUP. Yea its an overly SMALL bowl of soup tat has an identity crisis... Hahaha... And in fact, it reali tasted more like tomato puree than soup... -_-'''

The cream sauce pasta wasnt tat bad.. at least the ham wasnt too salty. Its plain enuf to make me like it ^^

The mushroom chicken sandwhich is nice! As expected, cafes usually serve tastier sandwhiches & desserts than compared to other dishes...

I must say the atmosphere is reali nice & comfy... Though the music was extreme loud but i dun find it noisy coz at least i cant hear any noise frm the patrons inside Bakerzin. PLUS the conversation between me & HJ is absolutely clear despite the loud music. I jus found another great place to chit chat with frienz w/o worryin the next table peps eavesdropping!

Must try their desserts next time... some look very alluring...

:: 1st pain of the yr ::

2009-01-06T02:33:00.000+08:00

New year barely started & i'm in pain...

Feeling so silly how i sprain my back... sleeping also can sprain it. 2 days of darn pain...

I jus hope it'll go away soonest.. dun wana celebrate my CNY in pain..

....

While still feeling odd, someone else is in a mood of happiness... 1st lovey annoucement of the new yr! Congrats to my littlebigbro.... The power of love can happen any min wor... ^^

2009-01-03T23:59:00.006+08:00

Another new year...

Dont really feel anything... its just plain normal day everydayssss....

Still pondering my new yr resolution... there's so many to achieve but i'm jus to lazy to move into action now...

Last mth of 2008 is a mth filled with food, food & more food. Met up with all the peps I've been wanting to mit in 2008 but most which I've delayed the gathering. Am hapi tat even my far away frien in aussie came back for a short outing too. Dec 2008 has been heart warming, mostly ^^

Last buffet of 2008 @ Marriot Hotel...

My xmas high tea with the poly babes... Yea its kinda early for the celebration but since we're meeting... might as well jus celebrate it. Its my 2nd visit to Marriot's high tea buffet. Apparently the 2nd impression is much better than the 1st (which was nearly 2yrs ago). There's more variety of food this round. Food tasted much more better. Much more pastries & desserts. And no crowds! Ok the crowd thingy might be becoz we went there on a weekday :p

Like the presents very much. Thx babes! (i was still tinkin tis yr i might not get any presents coz no one called for a xmas celebration but who knows? I got 4 pretty presents tis yr ^^)

CNY cookies 'test drive' ......

I needed the change... every yr baking the same cornflakes cookies has bored me. Bought tis wonderful cookies baking book... Loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee the receipes! Tried 3 of the cookies receipes, oats, cashew, almond. Totally delicious, if i do say so myself + parents. Especially like the cashew ones... I'm not a 'nut' person, seriously. But tis 1 i made is nice, coz its not too sweet ^^

Am trying another one (almond biscuits). Gotten all the ingrediants but i jus lose the 'drive' again. Maybe i'll do it tmr.. if the mood comes again. Hmmm....

Still pondering should i bake my cornflakes cookies, as usual. Lazy to bake so many kinds but i sorta miss my cornflakes cookies. Its a once a yr thingy lor. 2 weeks to decide.... *dilemma*

1st bday dinner @ Pasta Cafe...

Ok its overly early... coz 2008 havent end & some1 is eagar to treat me 2009 bday dinner. Still... thx MW! Her treat is coz she's afraid we wont mit any time soon. She's a busy new wife...

2nd time dining @ Pasta Cafe. I cant reali rmb who i ate with the 1st time or wat i had. Its doggie yrs ago... Anywayz the pasta was nice. So is the calamari (though i still likes the ones frm Fish & Co.). Comparing the pasta to tat of Sketches (@ Bugis), tis ones r more richer & bigger portion. But i prefer Sketches since i get to make my own pasta ^^

Reviewing 2008........

1st half din go tat well... stuck with lots of assignments & extreme sadden over the failed mod thingy.. 2nd half was hell of the busy but ended well. 2008 is also filled with lots of lovey dovey celebrations of the bringings of many couples & welcomings of new borns...

Its THE YEAR i gave out the most no. of red pkts & gifts.
Its THE YEAR i attended the most no. of banquets
Its THE YEAR i visited the hospital many times (to visit babies la)
How ironic life is... the time i'm MOST POOREST i had to folk out THE LARGEST amt of money...

I ended the last day of 2008 plainly... stayed home & focus on my psp. I'm just lazy to do anything else...

:: Time still passes so fast.. ::

2008-12-24T18:22:00.006+08:00

Supposely to be very free...

Supposely to slack everyday...

But i'm so tired... and y izzit yr end already?!

Past few weeks finally force myself to spring clean every corner, every drawer, every box in my room and parts of the hse. I'm so guilty by the mass of waste created... Cant believe there's so many useless & old stuffs. But its nice to clear up the spaces and make everythin clean & neat.

Hmmm more cleaning next few days... mum's annual CNY post-cleaning. I drag this the most. -_-'''. No jolly xmas for me tis yr. Haiz...

Anyway tis yr no xmas celebration. No one organized 1 + i'm not in the mood for 1 too. Cleaning is making me tired & lazy. So dun wana go out if possible.

But today was 'force' up early by MD to have breakfast together. Seriously i was still wondering y tis woman din ask me out for Fri dinner lately. Finally know y today. Some1 was 'busy' vomitting & feeling uncomfortable everyday for the past 5 weeks. The magical stock has once again bring gd news...

Its a little Cancer or Leo baby! Very excited for MD. Both of us r amazed by the accuracy of our discussion & estimate timing she should have a baby jus mths ago. So 准. Near to exact of our 'planning'. Haha... Its so interesting to c the pic. Cant believe a 3cm++ 'it' already got the shape of a human. Hyper active baby causing the mum to feel extremely sick... Poor MD.

I'm betting she's gona have a boy. Jus a few weeks ago i realised all my frienz who've gave birth, all have daughters & was still tinkin y no one bear a boy. My 'guessing' is maybe the next new born I'll be visiting will be a boy. Its time for a 'change'. Haha... Maybe its little MD sending brain wave to me to tell me its a boy few weeks ago. >.<

Merry Xmas everyone!

2008-12-04T12:37:00.002+08:00

Graduation is a confirmed!!!!! Woohooo.... So scary when i was checking the results. Finally can throw tat big rock out of my heart. Finally can throw ALL the lecture notes, textbooks... anything that's related to schooling & practically gona turn 100% useless in my next phrase of life.

I'm eager to attend my commencement. But apparently i've to wait another 7 mths or so. Which is why my eagerness already diminished by half. Am joyful tat i dun need to study anymore but the feeling of gona be graduated 'now' is not there. *bleh*

Celebrated my joy today with Ong. Rewarded myself with an overly priced G2000 top. *heart bleeding*... But i like it very much + i was in a happy mood. So i shall splurge once tis day. Than its off to nua-ing @ Coffee Club. For a non-strawberry cake lover, their strawberry shortcake is nice. Like the big chuncks of strawberry & the totally not overly sweet cake.

Hmmm havent been nua-ing a lot lately. Busy revamping my wardrobes, busy catching up with all the peps i missed during the whole sem, busy playing PSP, busy spree-ing, busy watching online animes.... jus plain busy with tons of things. So packed with activities le i still manage to start my supposely due-ing soon cross stitching. I pray i can finish the thing by 11 Dec.. the date i'm 'supposely' to give it to my jus-married frien... After nights of crossing & stitching.. i'll say its only 1/4 done. *sweat*

Yday tried recalling what i've been doing past few days & weeks but too many things le tat i forgot who i've met or even when. Wahaha.... Guess i'll recall some via pics:

[[**TCC-ing with WN**]]

I dont rmb the purpose of the outing but i guess its jus catching up with WN after my exams. Haha.. Had my fav Pizza Bageutte with english breakfast tea. Cant rmb the name of the other dish ordered but its something like prawn fritters on toast. Deliciously little thing, tats kinda ex.

[[**Baby Pet**]]

Pet is not a phrase for tis cute baby... its the nick of her mum. Baby Pet hasnt got a new name yet (when i visited her) so I've given her a nick, Baby Pet! ^^

2nd newborn I'm visiting tis yr... another little princess. Babies are cute when they're just born. The 'nasty' part comes when u have to take care of them 24 x 7 for the rest of ur life.. Part of life tat's interesting + hardship. Baby Pet frowns a lot... shivers a lot.. doesnt twitch & move a lot though. She jus wraps herself tightly w/o much body movement. Very sweet & cute. Dint get to pitch her chubby cheeks tat day as she needs to slp in the comfy baby room... i shall get her cheeks on her 1st mth celebration. WAHAHAHA..

[[**A Day @ the Museum**]]

Been a super long time since i last visited the SG museum! It changed so much i can only recognise its building exterior. Haha... 1st time i visited the museum personally. Past visits have always being a sch outing. For a $5 tix (student/NS Men), its quite a worthwhile visit.

The original purpose of visit was to c the Dim Sum Dollies stage play with WN inside the museum. But after the play, i tink the purpose jus changed to museum visiting coz the play wasnt much anyway. Just a short play to intro the museum. Nevertheless the play was still interesting enuf. We walked ard 4 to 6 diff galleries but i was busy viewing all the artifects so didnt take pics of every gallery..

1st gallary... "2 spot & shoot"

By local students. I dun reali get the pics taken (jus plain SG surroundings) but WN & I agreed tat the photos r based on some theme & the winners won because their photos most matched the theme, OR the rest of the contestants jus had more lousy photos than the winners..... *ponder*.......

2nd gallery... "Singapore Living Gallery - Fashion"

Abt SG ladies' fashion & beauty trend. Saw many pretty old fashion apparels, sewing machines & related stuffs... But i find the lighting in the gallery overly dark... So dark i tink i almost crash into the glass walls everywhere. Maybe it was so to preserved the apparels and beauty pdts from color fading or material rotting?

3rd gallery... "Singapore Living Gallery - Food"

Local food! Really bring back lots of young memories... Oops remind me tat i was part of the old past too! I'm really getting old... aiya....

4th gallery was on photography. Many old photos & cameras.. i like the way they archive the photos in many wooden drawers so visitors have to pull the drawers out 1 by 1 to view. Very 'interactive'. But ar, they should have label the word "pls pull to c more photos" on the drawers or something.. coz in the dim gallery, the wooden drawers jus look like some 'display'. If not for my curiousity, i wont have pulled the drawers to 'check' if can open or not. Hahaha...5th gallery... "National History Gallery"

Its super manz.... all visitors MUST see this. I totally recommend it. We walked nearly 1 n half hrs in there but we still cant finish the whole viewing! Tats how BIG tis gallery is. Luv tat quirky mechanic 'dictionary+voice guide' the museum provides for EACH visitor. So u dun even need a tour guide to explain all the way. Exploring the history gallery at ur own pace & own likings! Jus key in the number tag at each artifect or the number on the floor tiles & the machine explains all... soooooo coool...

Visited other galleries after the history one but i cant recall their names. Jus some local history thingy too. The most interesting part has 2 be the discovery of an outdoor escalator beside the museum, leading to Fort Canning. What? Outdoor escalator with NO shelter? How wacky is tat?! Wat will happen when it rains?! Its waterproof?!

I'm totally amazed by technology @ tis museum trip... shall visit again to finish the history gallery. ^^

I tink i'll continue slack till my 'hardworking' bug 'appear' one day...

Despite being extremely lazy now, i bought a pretty cross-stitch. Not for me, but for a friend who jus got married & i totally missed her wedding... So i planned to cross-stitch her a wedding theme thingy. Ermm duno how long it'll take me to complete it.. i'm jus too lazy to start. haha...

I should be studying.. but my mind is filled with the spa trip i'm going...

Not sure my room will be exactly the same as the one in the pics, but i guess wont be too much of a difference... SO LOOKING FORWARD TO THE TRIP!!! Best part is... mum didnt object my trip! Usually she'll make a big wu-ha when i say i wana travel with my frienz. 1st time she didnt object... yipee.... Wonder if she'll sponsor part of my trip?.. hmmm.. hope she will...

After delaying for >1 yr, i finally renewed my passport. This shows i havent been traveling for more than a yr! In fact, part of the reason i didnt renew is coz i dun wana waste money getting a new passport since i'm not travelling. Why waste 1 yr of the passport right? And another reason is coz i cant convince myself i look good enough to take a new pic for the passport. Haha...

But unexpectedly i mananged to doll myself up gd enough 2 look gd during the passport phototaking. I like my new photo! This must be the best photo i've taken so far, comparing to my IC, old passport, student pass... all other cards & documents tat has my pic.

Still there's 1 thing tat kinda displeased me... its the only passport size photo of me in short hair... nevertheless doesnt really THAT matter since i look gd in the pic. Hahaha...

Whatever... I WANT MY SPA.... Looking at the next pic totally increased my enthu.... such pretty, relaxing, sunny sunshine view!

:: 1 rock off my back ::

2008-10-24T11:32:00.005+08:00

Rejoice*

Woohoo-ing not becoz the paper went well... in fact its sucks totally. Jus wana be hapi coz i have 1 less burden. Cant wait for the other papers to end soon too even though i'm sooooo unprepared for the next 2 papers.. haiz..

Yday's paper i suck totally... the moment they annouced time is up, i feel so empty & lost. I'm suppose to know the answers but i jus couldnt get the answers out of my brain.. sianz..

Shall not cry over spill beans...

But still i woke up with a spinning headache tis morning... even the weather matches my mood.. gloomy & cloudy... *feeling crappy*...

Only thing i'm looking forward is tat spa rest & relax trip HJ finally wana go with me after my dreadful exams. Even though havent book, but i'm already picturing myself relaxing, doing nothing except letting the wind blow my face...

Away from everything thats so bugging for the past few weeks... i need a quiet relaxing place, away from all the bugging people, place, things...

I seriously need this break..... I need to recharge before i can go on any further...

:: Dont push me off the cliff... ::

2008-10-16T12:17:00.003+08:00

Monday... it WAS SUPPOSE to be a GOOD day..

Met up with HJ to take my shop's goods and also to do some catch up.. The whole afternoon and night was relaxing.. slowly taking our time walk ard MS and had snacks & tea at Coffee Club:

But a BITCH has to spoil my mood that night. NOT ONLY THAT NIGHT LOR!!!! Its crappy unhappy angry annoying pissing feeling tat shall not be removed FOREVER AND EVER AND EVER AND EVER...

EVIL, 忘恩负义, 没良心 BITCH... *&$^@*!*#...

I will never ever forgive her... Even if tis whole crappy 'incident' is over, irregardless its turning for the good or bad...

I SHALL NEVER FORGIVE

I SHALL NEVER FORGET

That BITCH will get her retribution... 一定会有... 老天是有眼的...

Crapping with my life WHILE i'm having the MOST IMPORTANT exam of my life.... after my exams she is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO gona get it from me....

So feel like slapping her now... so feel like kicking her out of my life now...

我忍..... i shall not 'damage' my own life becoz of her... Must concentrate on my exams....

我忍忍忍忍忍忍忍忍忍忍.....

:: The calm be4 the storm ::

2008-10-12T22:17:00.003+08:00

Despite supposely to be very free, i have not been sleeping well and appetite aint tat gd either. Haiz guess its the stress & haunting of THE FINAL LAST EXAMS... in just less than 2 weeks!!!

The momentum isnt goin very well.. shacks...

[Pic taken during last lect...]

Today went to pray 孔子... last sem didnt pray and i felt so uneasy. Feel slightly better after praying today...

But looking at the exam schedule reali dampens my mood.. Full 4 weeks, everyday packed with studying. Hate to even tink abt my 1 mth no life schedule...

Well with the storm already 20% started, i still need some enjoyment. New car coming on wed! So gona 游车河!!! Ok provided we can go take the new car key in the morning or afternoon than can reali enjoy tryin out the new car. Excited! Too bad i cant drive now.. -_-'''

Shouldnt be complaining too much now... at least i catch 1 movie (Mama Mia) weeks ago, went ktv twice, read some comics, watch some nice animes... AT LEAST i did some fun things, before the 'storm'....

[Litchi Tea @ TCC.. after the movie tat day]

I shouldnt complain so much...

STUDY STUDY!

:: Relaxing ::

2008-09-24T23:54:00.002+08:00

The break i awaited very very long...

After submitting the last of the last essay on Mon, i can pratically feel the burdens on my shoulder lighten by a lot a lot.. REJOICE! Tentatively rejoicing la.. still got final exams.. sharks... watever... shall not tink abt tat yet.

1st thing i wanted to do was ktving! For the sake of KTV, i had to drag myself up early mornin 2 attend mornin class coz i arranged KTVing with HJ in the afternoon! JM offered to give me a ride to the nearest MRT stn after class... wah its a totally interesting experience lor coz he drives a sports car! 长这么大还是第一次坐跑车.... But i'll say i kinda expected JM will be driving a 'unique' car due to his 'unique' family background. But 亲眼目睹 the car he's driving i jus cant help to feel shock on the spot.

Seriously, i dun know if i ever will have a chance to sit on a sports car a 2nd time.. such kind of luck is totally hard to come by... somemore the 'driver' even offered to explain his whole car systems to me. Even let me watch south park & Hellboy in his car! Even if its jus a few mins but its so cool! I quick snapped a pic of his video system with my camera...

Well thx to JM i had a unique experience... The groom-to-be got such hectic schedule still offer to give me a ride. Lucky to his wife-to-be! Hope they'll enjoy their wedding!

[Jay's MV!! Must sing his song in ktv!]

Sing our hearts out for a straight 4hrs.. two gals singing non-stop! Fun! If got too many ppl cannot sing so many songs liaoz. haha...

Dinner was settled at Yaki Yaki Bo @ JP.. 1st time dining there!

[The Teppanyaki! So fun watchin Okonomiyaki & other food cooked in front of u]

[Gyoza.. nice but not very special]

[*drooling* Suji Okonomiyaki!]

[Interesting looking Chawanmushi]

[Yummy Seafood Yakisoba]

1st time eating teppanyaki.. and its not ex too! With all the food we ordered, its ard $20 per person. Basically we ordered too much food. *oops*... I only wanted the okonomiyaki but HJ wanted to try out diff food so end up we ordered a feast fit for 3 person instead of 2. Haha...

Totally enjoyed the dining experience coz the teppanyaki chef was very friendly. Be4 cooking, he'll explain n let us c all the raw ingrediants needed for our dishes & when he serves the food, he'll explain how delicious the food is, wat sauce to match, how u should eat it to better enjoy its taste.. He even goes to the extend to help explain wat food can match with food.. So nice!

I love the beef okonomiyaki very much. Its moist, cooked at the right timing and the chef topped it with extremely lots of mayo, teriyaki sauce and 柴鱼... OISHI! Next time i wana try the seafood okonomiyaki!

Yakisoba was not tat bad either though i'll still prefer the one frm Sun with Moon. Yaki Yaki Bo's yakisoba is more moist & the noodles more soft :p

The most interesting food must be the chawanmushi.. its teppanyaki style! The chef put pour the egg mixture into a halved onion & "bake" the chawanmushi directly over the hotplate. For the non-onion lovers... dun order this. Coz the chawanmushi is totally filled with the taste of onion.. kinda like eating onion-ring but its egg instead of chips. Hehe...

So many other things i wana try next time.. like the teppanyaki seafood or meat which is served on a piece of buttered toast or the "bake" salmon in soya sauce. Saw a number of peps beside us ordering so i guess it must be nice.

Feel so good to enjoy & relax....

Crappy tat i have to reach the word count be4 i can hug my pillow....

Argh..... 灵感!!!!!!! i need 灵感!!!!!!!!

:: Revenge of the Toyota ::

2008-09-14T17:55:00.008+08:00

Supposely happy event turned kinda sour...

Today Dad finally decided, after mths and days, to change our old goldie Toyota for a new galaxy grey Honda... Ya after so many viewings and test drives, turns out we're still back to the 1st choice. Hahz.... Only diff is dad n bro finally accepted the fact black is not a gd color so they heed mum n my opinion to get the metallic grey. ^^

Of coz i wasnt the one who convinced them not to get the black la. The nice car sales-lady totally disencourage them to get a black car coz its hard to maintain.... Black = Constant good polishing.... The word "polishing" is a freaky word.. coz we all hate polishing. Hahaha...

Happiness only lasted a few hours....

Poor old goldie Toyota got hit, again! A super reckless unreasonable XX cut lane, overtake, at a left turn, scratched the right side of goldie all the way till the right front light pop out of place. A minor matter tat could be settled with jus a little payment of repair damages turns into a BIG WU-HA matter at the police station.

All because the unreasonable XX refuse to pay, refuse to take out licence, refuse to admit wrong, refuse to make police report together and even refuse to stay at the car accident scene till the TP comes. Oh ya, the only thing XX's willing to do is get the bro to call us and threaten with a law suit. Hello??!! Tis must be crazy... Law suit few thousand $$ willing to pay laywer but maybe less than $200 repair fee dun wana pay us? What a crazy pair of sibilings....

Though we know its a stupid matter but it jus made the whole family cranky... super cranky...

Poor goldie will have to bear with the scratches & bumps coz new car comin in next mth so we decided not to repair it. Crappy manz...

The way i look at the whole matter is... old goldie is jus unhappy we're scrapping it so it's taken 'revenge' on us. After its been thru quite a few crashes, bumps, scratches, internal & external damages... its the only car we've tat's been thru sooooooooooo much... We'll always rmb it... ALWAYS... -_-'''

But i feel blessed everyone is ok so far... 神+祖先=显灵+保佑.. old goldie's sturdy body, despite all the damagees, protected everyone too... blessed blessed... thank u thank u...

Well whole family now looking more forward to NEW car, NEW car plate, whole NEW feeling.. we need the change manz.. i know the guys in the family cant wait to get a new car plate number in hope of changing luck. The guys all had their share of crashes & bumps in this car.

I jus hope with Galaxy coming, everyone will be more alert and careful when driving. New car CANNOT, DEFINITELY CANNOT DAMAGE ar! ^^

Galaxy come to us ASAP!

Not to mention, I NEED TO GET MY CAR LICENCE! So motivated to get it now. Haha...

:: Cranky ::

2008-09-12T03:07:00.002+08:00

what more can i say? getting more cranky.. 3am still editing project... i'm starting to feel 'floating'....

:: Confusing week ::

2008-09-11T01:28:00.003+08:00

So many things happening at the same time... getting confused...

Test, revision, projects, wedding... tryin hard to stay focus but i'm starting to lose it...

The only thing i enjoyed was the wedding.. lazy to update coz so many fun things happened that day... will update when the mood is here. haha...

The rest i cant wait to finish 'em ASAP... especially the projects.. so sway got an irritating grp member.

Haiz making me the bad person coz no one else wana voice out.. fraustration fraustration fraustration... if the irritating person decide to argue with me, i tink i'll 'explode' n break my calm. Tryin hard not to argue with anyone but there's always this kind of irritating person, with an itchy butt, waiting for me to 'voice out' my unhappiness. 真是欠骂.... -_-'''

Ok la i have to admit the "going-to-turn-bad" temper is because not enuf slp... ever since tat wedding... NOT ENOUGH SLEEP! So cranky when i'm deprived frm my beauty slp....

In the mist of drowning in tons of essays, i 'sinfully' completed one korean drama.... Its so nice so i cant help it!!!!

So i missed nearly 50% of the intially part of the drama... but when i accidentally start watchin it frm midpoint, i'm totally hooked to it.

Tis must be one of the best Korean Drama i've watched so far.. Its mostly comedy but has a heart warming storyline...

Unfortunately its last episode on tv is on mon night.. the only night i have NIGHT CLASS!!! argh...

BUT!

I have my way... Tudou!!!! Woohoo... i can find all 16 episodes in there! So yea i already know the ending before its shown on tv.. hehehe...

:: All abt TCC ::

2008-08-22T23:39:00.000+08:00

Went TCC again.. 3rd time within 2 weeks? So TCC this mth...

1st time was tea with the poly buddies to celebrate HJ's bday...

[we're the tea-ing babes! WE LUV TEA!]

[my tea... "Calming tea"]

2nd time was project discussion.. tried out their pizza bagette.. Grp mates nibble away all my plate's crackers. Aww i love those chips! Anyway the pizza is totally nice! A big fat portion of bagette topped with seafood baked in cheese. But i'll still rank their Club Sandwhich as my fav ^^

3rd time today is with my big little brother, jus chilling out on a rainy friday... Tried their Devil's Emotion choc cake. Warmed choc cake, oozing with melted choc in the middle, topped with vanilla ice-cream. Almost makes me feel like i'm eating warmed brownie with ice-cream. ^^

["Devil's Emotion" - pro pic frm the photographer bro]

Tink i'll stop suggesting TCC to everyone next mth.. i need some place new to try... Heard there's a nice cafe at Pacific Plaza so i'm gona try tat out!

:: Colors ::

2008-08-20T20:01:00.004+08:00

End up I wasnt brave enuf to bleach it... so i jus colored it with some pinch of highlights on one side... hmmm i tink its still not bad.. after all i did it myself, with mum's help... Wahahaha...

I cant rmb when's the last time i colored my hair.. definitely more than 2-3yrs...

Duno y i feel better with my hair colored.. it makes me look, well, more me. I tink my buddies will also find me looking more 'original me' with colored hair. Haha....

So yes i'm happier with colored hair, no matter how damaging it is. Hahaha...

And i would have go for bleaching, if mum doesnt oppose it tat much... i dun mind looking with sunny sunshine hair.. ^^

:: ITS CUT ::

2008-08-17T00:51:00.006+08:00

'Someone' finally willing to help me cut it short...

Yea i got short hair! Thx to the golden scissor hair stylist of mine...

Its short.. not as short as i expected but at least its obvious its short...

1st day i feel kinda weird with it...

2nd day its a shock.. it was terrible coz i looked like kinda boy-ish coz hair looked darn flat due to rebond after-effects... hmm mmm...

3rd day after a good wash n blow dry its not too bad after all...

4th day hair finally lost the 'after-effects'.. at least got rid of the boy-ish thingy...

Today's the 5th day... getting a lot more used to the hair.. but i realised the hair looks better after a night's sleep.. so it means i must wash hair be4 sleep than next day it'll look nicer..

Kinda crappy but yea its the way it is...

Seriously i hope the hair will look much better after a week or so... darn i hate the 1st 2 weeks of a new haircut... -_-'''

Next 'transformation' shall be coloring.. havent reali decide a color yet.. so many yrs since i last colored it.. maybe i'll go crazy n bleach the whole hair golden or blond. WAHAHAHA...

Reali considering wor.. ^^

1 cute incident happened @ the toilet while i was there:

*a little girl came out of the cubical, run to the door than back up suddenly....

Little girl, giggling: "Oops i forgot to wash hands"

Me: *laugh inside & smiled back to her

Little girl: *struggle to reach the soap, tap & hand towel

Me: *helped her, silently...

Little girl: "Thank you.... izzit 1pm now?"

Me: "ermm no.... Its 5:30pm now"

Little girl, looking innocently: "why is my watch always 1pm?"

Me: *looked over her watch... "er coz ur watch is spoiled.."

Little girl, face light up: "oh i didnt know tat! i shall get daddy buy me a new watch"

*little girl than ran out of the toilet...

Me: *feeling kinda awkward...

After i tell the incident to my frienz, everyone laughed.. coz the "y izzit always 1pm" thingy is so funny...

After second thoughts... ya its so funny... the innocent of a kid.. haha...

Last week's more exciting than weeks be4, ever since sch started..

Wed nua-ing at Sun with Moon again! Tis round with WN.. the whole trip is basically jus to satisfy my cravings for Okonomiyaki (aka Jap pancake)... and also some window shopping. Smarter tis round.. aiming jus for their High tea menu.. which is cheaper!

[Bright little signage @ entrance]

[Distorted us.. lookin tall n slim. haha..]

[The menu... not a lot of items but enuf to satisfy ur hunger..]

[THE USUAL SEAT.. duno y i always get the same table... hmm mmm..]

[The window view...]

[Window view part 2]

[Yakisoba! aka fried noodles]

[Okonomiyaki! aka jap pancake]

I luv its yakisoba! The pork slices tasted delicious. The okonomiyaki le.. tink the chef kinda over-cooked it coz it was a bit hard. Still its nice! Slowly eat, slowly drink LOTS of free flow green tea... nua-ing feels good...

Of coz cannot all play n no work.. the next day i'm rushing like mad dog to finish the 1st essay dued on friday... no slp no rest whole thur... one word to describe "SHAG"...

Had a chat with long-known unknown frien yday.

It seems we known each other so long, but yet it also seems we're total stranger to each other.

More than 12yrs of acquaintance.. i wont totally say its 'friendship' coz we never met in person. But its also not totally unknown coz we know how each other look like, in pic.

If one day either of us stop contact each other, i tink we wont feel too much upset.

Cant get me wonder, if we do ever decide to meet, will our 'friendship' come to an end?

Might, coz the sense of mystery is no longer there....

Yday we almost met up coz he offered to drive me home after sch. I didnt know he got a car lor & doubt his offer. Shucks.... end up no free ride... -_-'''

But i also wont say its totally my "ignorance" tat made me lost my 'free ride'... my dear frien halfway thru our chat went MIA, again...

Seriously i cannot tolerate ppl who go MIA during a chat.... but apparently he always does that.. so many yrs liaoz never change... "AMAZING"... my tolerance tat is.. haha... -_-'''

...................................................................................

Anyway lately i'm very much into the voice & music of 郭静. Found something nice frm her again.. not a hot hit(or rather its not even played on radio) but i like its melody.. sort of got a pinch of jay music in it.. the very oriental music... [郭静-你的香气]

:: twisted luck ::

2008-07-05T22:21:00.003+08:00

Was having butterflies in my stomach the moment i woke up. Going for a mock interview nevertheless feels the same as goin for the real thing, especially this is graded! But in a twist of event, the interview is just self conducted. Interviewer = classmate. Though its random grouping but i was actually grp with my friend! That's like 1 chance out of 100 over students. Really lucky. Than again i dun tink i did well for my interview coz, as usual, i was blabbering too fast. Anyhowz, we all gave each other gd points since nobody wana become the 'evil' interviewer. Haha..

After the interview, its celebration! 4 poly mates finally can sit down at the same table for dinner... been so long since all of us met up together, other than each of us randomly meeting each others... 'Nua' with HJ at Sun & Moon for 2 hrs till the other 2 babes joined us..

Those are NOT lunch... its our high-tea. Yes a lot of food for high-tea, for jus two babes... we sorta 'mis-calculated' the serving size... Haha... I like their high-tea desserts & jap pancake, though quite disappointed they no longer have the high-tea special (tea + dessets at below $10). Or maybe they only serve the high-tea special on weekday? No sure...

After nua-ing for 2hrs, continued on with dinner.. the dinner was not tat pleasing though. Tis the 2nd time i order their sukiyaki but it tasted totally diff.. The beef was rolled up too thicked tat i cant unroll it. So it became big fat chucks of beef, instead of thin slices of beef. And the soup was too salty.. Guess i'll still stick to their lunch & high-tea menu in future...

YC than started distributing all our late bday gifts... but guess lady luck was at my side, coz AG's gift end up became mine... YC bought the wrong size shoe for AG and i was the only one who could fit in out of the 4 of us. It was like cinderella tryin out the shoe. Hehe..

Sry to the rest of the babes... Thx to YC! Haha...

Today must be my lucky day lor.. havent feel so lucky for quite a while ^^

1st day back to the place i hate... boring to hell lect.. and its over 6 hrs long.. wat a 'good' way to start sch...

So many ppl doze off durin the mid of the lect.. i almost did too.. lucky didnt.. the lecturers r 'creepy'... they LOVE to catch anyone not payin attention... imagine facing two boring lecturers for 6hrs.. arghhh....

After 'surviving' the long torturing lect, decided to go shop for a pair of shoes. It must be 1 of my fastest purchase ever.. within 20mins i went 2 shops, picked 1 pair of blue canvas shoe, tried it and paid for it. I did everythin so fast tat the sales assistant was more than willing 2 entertain my pickiness in keep wanting to change for 1 pair tat has the least defects.. Hahaha...

Lately i'm like been 'possessed' back by my past habit. Which is buy on the spot w/o 2nd thoughts. A super duper bad habit i must say. Its been so long i havent buy somethin on the day or on the spot i saw it. Stress must be hitting on me... haiz..

Overspending like hell... am still feelin guilty abt last fri's splurge.. hmmm.. shouldnt have buy a pair of shoes today... eeeeek...

No one's free to go out with me today... but i seriously wanted to get out of the hse coz the dreadful sch day is coming soon!

Went shopping @ orchard alone. Totally enjoyed myself! Shoppin on a weekday must be the best life one can have.. no crowds ANYWHERE...

Spent hrs looking & tryin out tons of clothes... its so hard to restrain myself frm buying everythin i like.. manage to convince myself jus buy 3 pcs.. anymore than tat.. i'm dead meat...

Wanted to sit down at a cafe & relax with a cup of tea but didnt have enuf time.. arrgh..

But right now i'm partial hapi & stress.. new clothes makes me hapi.. spending makes me stress..

Shouldnt have go shoppin alone.. no one to be ard to stop me frm spending!

Free food again, complimentary of MW. I'm lucky to have friends who luv to treat... Muhahaha....

Actually it was jus a gathering dinner but since she offered the treat 2 make up for not treating on my bday..... Thx babe! Though its over 6 mths away frm my bday, but... aww so touched. 感恩... 感恩... Had our dinner at Ministry of Food.

[Menu.. lots of food & desserts to pick]

[I luv chawanmushi! Chawa's my nick! Where's my Mushi? O.o]

[My set meal! Tempura Soba.. yummy!]

The price is reasonable (my set was ard $16) & food aint mini tiny. But comparing to Ichiban, i tink ichiban's portion is much larger. MOF's food tasted good nevertheless. I reali like their set meal special where u top-up ard $3 u can select any yummy dessert frm the dessert menu (lots to choose from!). Best part is their free coffee/tea comes in a voucher form. So u dun have to force urself to drink tat cup of coffee/tea on the same day. $10 for 2 yrs membership is also worth coz it gives u 10% discount. Just eat ard 3 times for 2 pax i'm sure will earn back the $10 paid ^^

MOF can be found @ Marina Sq, Bugis & Raffles City...

Back home, got bored so made somethin out of the little note cards i kept many many yrs.. TATA:

[Home-made name card ^^]

I find it cute la. Havent given out any yet though... hehe...

After the devastating day, i'm feeling kinda lost. Duno how i should continue spend my remaining 3 weeks of sch hol... But i tink if i jus waste myself away for 3 weeks, its not gd either.

Lucky got the blogshop & PSP to keep me occupied at home. As much as i dun have the mood to go out, i decided i should go out. I needed the air outside... Fri walked ard JP alone than had a quiet evening with a cup of hot chocolate & my PSP @ Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf..

Than had dinner with MD which made me feel better. Guess all i needed is someone to talk to. And i bought 2 sets of Korean drama to keep myself further occupied too, "Yu-Hee The Witch 魔女允熙" and "Huang Zhen Yi 黃眞伊". Must self-entertain myself else i will go worse feeling upset. -_-''' Managed to laugn wholeheartedly while watching "Yu-Hee The Witch 魔女允熙"... its reali funny...

Guess i'll recover frm the devastating upset mood soon.. i hate to c myself or feel all moody everyday... can be quite depressing... Oh well.. life still have to go on. Been cooking quite a lot lately. The cooking mood has set in quite strongly lately. Made sushi last week:

Rice dumpling yday:

There was the potato salad which i made 3 times to finally get the correct ingrediants for THE potato salad i wanted. I tink i got mum to be hooked to my potato salad ^^

Also made the Jamie style pizza weeks ago... Which didnt turn out as nice as the 1st time i made it. Guess i got the yeast portion wrongly...

Wanted to bake a muffins or cake but i'm lazy.. maybe will try it next week, if i got the mood..

:: demoralised ::

2008-06-04T21:38:00.003+08:00

Back to feeling upset again.. its not jus merely upset. Its tremendous saddness...

Failed 1 mod... *sob*

So demoralised... i also duno y i score so low... so low till i dun even wana appeal. Wat's the pt of appealing when the chance of approval is zero?

I tink i'm born to fail in studies... haiz... *sob*

The feeling of guilt is even higher when parents didnt scold me for failing.. I tink mum feel kinda disappointed i failed though she didnt say a thing. I guess she's hoping i'll do better in uni compared to my lousy poly days. I also thought i'll do better. Guess we're all wrong... haiz...

Didnt cry when i 1st saw the results. Wasnt tat upset, yet, coz i got a gut feeling i'll fail at least 1 mod. But its reali upsetting to disappoint the parents especially they pin so much hopes on me. I tink i will feel better if they scold me.. haiz...

I tink i'll sob myself to sleep tonight. Haiz... *sob*

Feeling kinda of lost now.. Duno wat to do.. Haiz.. *sob*

Last week darn not so hapi...

This week a lot more better as i get in touch with some hapi stuffs...

Yday visited AF at Thomson medical. Ok its my 2nd time visiting a hospital this mth but tis round its for a super hapi cause. Visit her & her newborn! Looking forward to meeting her baby.. waited 9mths for her to come into tis world. Hahaz...

So cuteeeee...... little baby is so cute.... always feel like pinching her cheeks coz its so chubby. She looks like a chinese (her parents r malay ^^). Fair fair cute cute chubby chubby.

Than aunt has recovered frm her bad fever but she's sorta no longer the same person. I jus hope the next time i visit her she'll rmb my name. Its kinda amazing tat a person who didnt lose her memories actually forget things. The brain is such a complicated thing.. hmm mmm mm...

Bro decided to lend me his PSP 'permanently'.. Cool huh... saved over 300 bucks! The only T&C is whenever he wants it i must hand it to him. Well i willing to do anythin to save tat money. Haha. havent played games so long tat i feel so rusty with the navigations. -_-'''

Ya i sorta hooked to the IT (Disgaea). Cant go to slp w/o completing at least 1 level. Haha.. I'm a panda, again.. ooops..

Well i was looking forward to a peaceful sch hols but it merely lasted less than a few days than the world ard me starts to get "messy"...

The sichuan earthquarke.. so sad to c the death roll keep rising.. its been 14days and it still makes me wana cry jus seeing the news or reading the newspaper. Hope the living will be able to recover soon & rebuild their homeland.

Than within the same week was informed tat my aunt fell sick. She's the closest relative among all my hundred over relatives i ever have. Though i dun c her always but she's been reali nice to me when i was young. Well now she's all haywired in the brain becoz of some delayed treatment. It can be very extremely pissing to c some1 supposely can be cured but was not becoz they dun wana be treated.

I hate old traditional thinking ppl... a life's on hand yet they still 'think' a person will recover 'automatically' or some 'miracle' will happen. *tsk tsk*

Deep inside i truly believe she wont become wat she is now had 'some ppl' sent her to the doc. If i could, i would scream at them and give them a thoroughly scolding now. But than again wat's the point? She IS and HAS become wat she is now. These ppl only suffer with her coz now they have to spent the rest of their life looking after her 24hrs, 365 days non stop.

I know if i visit her, surely i cant take it, but i have to, so i did. It's EXTREMELY depressing to c someone u know ur whole life turning into a 'haywired' person. No one could hold their tears when the doc annouced she's "uncurable" & "permanent". I tink mum's the most depressing coz she's closest to her. Everyday she spent worrying for aunt. Mum worry aunt, i worry for mum AND aunt.

So 2 weeks of my holidays spent mourning the death, crying for the sicked...

Seriously i'm not feeling any joy of the holiday...

Life's so unpredictable...
