Convivial Illusions // Happy Illusions

Hello reality, we meet again

2011-08-07T21:22:00.007+08:00

I can't believe my holidays are gone, just like that. More than three months worth of holidays flew by in a wink and I haven't done anything productive as usual. It felt as if year 1 ended just yesterday. I know, I'm living in denial again but I can't help it. I really am dreading school real bad. Travelling's a bitch, timetable's a bitch, well basically, life's a bitch. I think I've got one of the worst timetables but forget it, I've gotten over that already.

Just got back from KL. Definitely not a fruitful trip in terms of shopping but we'd an awesome time nevertheless. It's the company that matters though good shopping and food would've made it even better. Honestly, the food weren't all that fantastic and the prices weren't much cheaper compared to Singapore. Unless you're talking about fast food which is dirt cheap there. Shopping was just pathetic in my opinion. We went to 10 shopping malls and Chinatown and we hardly bought anything since nothing really caught our eyes. The most hilarious buy of the trip would be Bala's hundred bucks dragon! Mind you, it's in Sing dollars.

The hotel was the best part of the entire trip. It was awesome swimming in their smaller version of infinity pool and the breakfast buffet was unexpectedly nice! :) I kind of miss the trip, or rather miss spending time with my friends and having the luxury of time to do whatever I want. But anyway, doubt we'll be going back to KL anytime soon, at least not in the next 10 years unless it's free.

I kind of lost the mood to blog. I'll blog again soon perhaps. I know I'm getting incoherent and it's all school's fault. Whatever, I shall cross my fingers and pray for a good semester ahead.

My damn awesome pig!

BBQ lovin'

2011-07-25T20:24:00.006+08:00

I had a great week. Last Thursday marked my virgin visit to USS and my prayers were answered. I guess I prayed a tad bit too hard though, the sun was scorching hot and I nearly withered there and then in the blistering heat. But I've got to count my blessings. Thank god for the good weather otherwise my fifty-two bucks would've gone down the drain. If you're wondering why it is fifty two bucks, there's a mastercard promotion going on right now till sometime in November (18th Nov if I'm not wrong), so grab your tickets now! :D

Initially, we thought that USS would be pretty deserted given that it's a weekday and people have to work or go to school but no, the place was packed with tourists to our utter dismay :( There were snakelike queues for the more popular rides like Canopy Flyer and Jurassic Park Rapids Adventure so we headed for other rides first. I literally screamed my lungs out for Revenge of the Mummy but come to think of it, it wasn't that bad after all. heh. gave Battlestar Galatica a miss of course, I don't want to die young. caught nearly all the rides and a couple of shows of which shrek 4D Adventure is not to be missed.

Class BBQ on Saturday at Waldron's place was awesome, that is, if I overlook the fact that I was harassed by two stray cats. haven't seen most of them since...forever. I can't seem to recall the last time we met, as a class. It took ten years before the guys got the fire started and yes, I know, I shouldn't be complaining since all I did was to sit around and wait for the guys to do the work. HAHA. The food was yummy, love the black pepper salmon, garlic prawns, satay, sambal sotongs, marshmallows and my favourite sambal stingray of course! Now, I regret not eating more stingrays. It was also my first time eating sbarbecued marshmallow because somehow, all the BBQs that I have been to, the marshmallows were long gone before the BBQ even started.

School's going to start again in the blink of an eye. I don't ever want the holidays to end, if only I could hit the rewind button. Still, I'm looking forward to the weekends and my last leg of holidays. toodles, earthlings :)

Practicum Part II

2011-07-18T11:33:00.006+08:00

Seriously, I should keep a distance from the refrigerator, it's doing me no good. I just shoved a mouthful of red rock deli potato chips into my mouth. Talk about discipline. Anyway, the boyfriend's finally back after three weeks in Thailand. It didn't feel that long actually, three weeks went by much faster than I expected and credits go to the two weeks of school experience. Being occupied really does help to take things off your mind.

The second week of the school experience spent at a secondary school was a stark contrast from the first week over at a primary school. Each day, I would return home flat and my energy sapped out. My body would feel so numb and tired and I will always lie on the bed, staring blankly at the television screen. Perhaps, it’s due to the inadequate sleep since I sleep pretty late given that I’ve to drag myself out of bed early daily. Gone were the days when I could reach school when the bell rings. But, I’m not complaining.

I thoroughly enjoyed myself at Bendemeer Secondary School. I learn so much and made new friends with the seniors and not to forget, the teachers were all really helpful and friendly people! I feel so blessed to meet such nice people! Also, it’s how coincidental that one of the trainees was from IJ and two of them were from AJ! But then again, practicum isn’t graded for the first two years and this group of seniors will no longer be there when I return for my Teaching Assistantship next year. So, for now, I can only pray that lady luck would stay with me throughout practicum!

My timetable was way more hectic over at the secondary school than primary school which is good in way. Sometimes, it gets really boring and frustrating when you’ve absolutely nothing to do at all. I was allocated more science lessons than maths because it was mistaken that my major is Chemistry. Nonetheless, I was exposed to many different students from the various streams. Since I was mentally prepared, I did not experience too much of a culture shock. I was simply taken aback by the content that they learn and the nonchalant attitude some students have towards learning. To think that I thought that my attitude towards learning was rotten enough but boy, I was wrong. I’m nowhere near being on par with them, fortunately.

Each of them has their own story to tell and different teachers have different methods to manage them, to bring out the better side of the students. This makes me wonder whether I’ll have the ability to handle the “difficult” students in the near future but anyway, I’m no longer wavered and I’ve decided to stick to the secondary track. I know myself and teaching secondary school students probably suit me better. I shall cross my fingers and hope that I won’t regret my choice.

Besides lesson observations, I did relief teaching for the very first time. Apart from the first class that I went to which was very noisy, the others were fine. What's more the schedule screwed up so Vincent and I were allocated the same lesson for relief teaching so we ended up talking while the students were talking. lol! I also had to attend staff contact time for the first time on the first day of school. You can probably imagine how reluctant I was and the string of complaints which followed when I knew about it during morning assembly. oh well, it was a good experience I'd say, it certainly wasn't something that I expected.

All in all, the two weeks of school experience was a fruitful one. It gave me a taste of what I got myself into, hahh but no regrets so far. As much as I hate to admit it, but I do miss going to school, as a trainee teacher. Or perhaps, it's the company that I miss.

Enough about practicum. I shall side track a lil bit. heh. I just finished watching the latest episode of The Other Truth and needless to say, I'm totally won over by Ruco Chan. He's such a talented actor heeee :D

met Jolene and Jiamin last week and we'd an awesome meal at Ma Maison!

Three more weeks till it's back to the jungles. Gosh, I can't say enough how much I dread school and my laptop kind of died on me but thank god there's still the moe laptop to fall back on :) Meanwhile, I shall enjoy these three weeks to the fullest before reality hits.

Practicum Part I

2011-07-10T17:38:00.017+08:00

Well, here's a quick update on my uninteresting life before I scuttle off to watch my drama serial again :)

Without a doubt, my first week of practicum at Bendemeer Primary School was enriching. Although it was merely four days and Gary & I spent more than half of our time there smsing in the staffroom, skiving in the canteen and reading magazines & newspapers in the library, but still, I learnt alot and expanded my horizon. I was pleasantly surprised by how well-behaved majority of the kids were and at the same time, I'm guilty of generalizing neighourhood school children as the rowdy, problematic bunch.The kids were also very responsive, much to my delight. They would raise their hands eagerly whenever questions were raised by their teacher which is something that I don't quite recall in my primary school days. We behaved more like sponges instead, that is, if my memory didn't fail me. It's amazing how lively these kids were and how much enthusiasm they have for school. The kids have taught me so much.

Honestly, I'm having second thoughts about being a secondary school teacher and am very tempted to switch to primary track. Clearly, there are both pros and cons to teaching primary/secondary since students at different age, give different problems but one thing for sure, the workload (in terms of marking and admin) of a primary school teacher is definitely lesser than a secondary school teacher. Then again, I haven't been to a secondary school yet. My second week of practicum will start tomorrow at Bendemeer Secondary School. It's how coincidental that MOE allocated me to both Bendemeer Primary and Secondary but the only difference this time is that I'm on my own. Bring it on, Bendemeer Secondary!

The master timetable for next semester is out and after Gary told me over practicum how horribly late school will end next semester, I quickly went to analyze the master timetable in detail. It's a disaster seriously, it's gonna be a five day work week and what's worse is that I end so disgustingly late almost everyday with the latest being seven plus thanks to awesome chemistry. Sense my sarcasm?

On a much happier note,

met up with the clique for Terence's birthday sometime back and with the girls before Joyce left for Perth :) And the boyfriend will be back this weekend. xoxo

Terence with his pink Mickey (or is it Minnie) mouse cup! hehe.

lifting the corners of the lips

2011-06-19T15:03:00.011+08:00

Somehow, I'm really prone to having flu. So glad that I'm feeling much better now and I learnt how to swallow a flu tablet that's slightly bigger than other flu tablets. Though it's still considered as a small tablet but hey, it's a an achievement okay! considering that I can't even swallow a tiny weeny tablet last time! guess I got to thank Waldron for that. hehe.

Friday was well spent with baby! Once again, we were torn between Hard Rock and Modesto for lunch and we eventually settled for the former. It was okay, nothing to shout about. I reckon Modesto's set lunch is better in terms of quality of the main course so go for Modesto UNLESS Hard Rock has ribs on the set lunch menu that day then it's a different story.

popped by Mango to check out the sales but the crowd and long snakelike queues for the fitting room made it too painful to shop. So, we went to get the necessities for baby's trip instead. We then headed down to The Cathay hoping to catch Hangover II and it turned out to be a wasted trip. Hangover II's amazingly popular, the tickets were sold out and even the show at 9plus was selling fast at that point in time. It was not even five yet for goodness sake. Moreover, it was a weekday afternoon hello!?!?

We walked to GV plaza to try our luck despite knowing how bleak our chances were since GV's usually more packed than The Cathay. And well, no prizes for guessing it right. We didn't manage to get any tickets for decent hangover II timings. Deciding that our poor feet needed to rest (after all the walking), we went back to Waldron's house to rest and booked tickets for hangover II at Nex instead. Yeah I know, we should've done that right from the beginning and saved all the hassle.

We reluctantly left the comfort of the couch and made our way down to Suntec area for dinner. We wanted to try out this dining place after reading all the raving reviews. However, the queue was extremely long when we reached and since the restaurant closes early, we were told that they're not accepting anymore customers. FAINTS* We went to Marina Square's Imperial Treasure and again, we were greeted by a long queue. Waldron just couldn't stop lamenting about Singaporeans' ability to spend on all these yet complaining about the price increment of a plate of chicken rice. Anyway, we ended up at the newly revamped food court. I gave their custard buns a shot and they were so juicy with salted egg yolk and custard! Now, I know where to get my dose of good custard buns without visiting restaurants :)

rushed down to Nex for the much anticipated hangover II. I was so exhausted by then due to all the walking and the flu was making it worse. Nevertheless, Hangover II was damn awesome and hilarious.

This Friday was brilliant despite all the wasted trips but I can't say the same for next Friday. Can we please fast forward the time to mid July, pretty please?

Rise and Shine with coffeebean!

2011-06-09T16:28:00.003+08:00

I'm feeling so much better now after a short nap. I've been feeling pretty worn out these days due to telemarketing and tuition, I certainly hope that I didn't catch the flu bug. Tomorrow is one of those days with both telemarketing and tuition which is a dread of course since it's always a mad rush between the two....sigh!

On a brighter note, I'd a really hearty breakfast with the boyfriend today at The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf as the title suggests :) skipped telemarketing today just to have breakfast. I know, I sound so friggin' lame. But then again, it's just a reason for me to not go to work because I simply dislike the nature of my part-time job but the pay is too attractive to turn it down. I feel so much like a pest, seriously! But thank god, it's just a part time job and not for life. I wouldn't want to imagine that.

Anyway, that's off track, what I wanted to say was that Mcdonald's scrambled eggs pales in comparison to coffee bean's. I particularly like the combination of salmon with scrambled eggs on toast. (The photo does not do any justice to the salmon, the salmon looked like tomatoes) The salad was refreshing and crunchy with the use of almonds and sausages were delicious. All in all, it was an awesome start to the morning. Not to mention that the breakfast was extremely value for money because of the 1 for 1 breakfast promotion and there's 10% rebate with UOB card. I guess we won't be going to mcdonald's anytime soon.

met up with Bala, Minghui and Eileen on Tuesday for a Gelare fix:D I haven't seen them in ages! I hope our class bbq can materialize! We had a scrumptious dinner at Dian Xiao er before we headed over to Gelare for our waffles with ice cream. Though I've been religiously eating Gelare, I never knew that Gelare has chocolate chip waffles till Minghui told us. HAHHH SEEE, I am not such a glutton after all :)

I can't believe that I'm actually watching My Sister of Eternal Flower. Along with Yes Sir, Sorry Sir, it is one of the worst TVB shows this year but thankfully, the show has only twenty episodes and Raymond Lam's good looks made it more bearable to watch. I'm loving every bit of Ghetto Justice though. Kevin's character really shines in the show and he improved heaps from his UTCOL days! I'm eggcited for next week, till then! ~

Me and food. Best friends forever.

2011-06-01T09:24:00.012+08:00

Honestly, I'm such a bum. I am neglecting this space, again. Holidays are doing me no good, I'm glued to my tv shows half the time otherwise, I'll be splurging on food or shopping. Redondo cream wafers's my favourite snack lately, perfect for a lazy afternoon in front of my laptop :)

Results were released on Monday and it caught me off guard. All along, we thought that the date of release of results was this coming Friday. What took me by surprise was that I actually fared better than I did in semester 1 and apart from one of the non-core modules which pulled down my GPA (AGAIN :@), I'm happy with the rest of my grades :) Guess it helps that I don't have high expectations for myself haha. Next semester is definitely gonna be worse than this given there's the much dreaded programming and calculus II. But, it's certainly not the time to be worried now. For now, I'll enjoy my summer holidays, far away from the jungles :)

Anyway, yours truly finally found a job, or rather, it found me. I'm back to work at my previous workplace albeit reluctantly. Though I am even more well-paid than before, the thought of going to work puts me off but for the money, I shall persevere. Then again, the mind is willing but the flesh is weak. Speaking of which, I've got work and tuition tomorrow :( I can't wait for Thursday to be over.

watched POTC on stranger tides with Stephanie and Joyce last Friday before we met Marcia and liting to shop and eventually, the rest of the clique for dinner at chilis. The serving was huge, nobody finished their food except for Jiamin, that is if you exclude the bread of the sandwich. I'd big mouth bites, the onion strips and homestyle fries were deep fried to golden yellow and very cripsy, much to my liking. The beef patty was thick and nicely done while the bread was okay in my opinion. Though everyone with the exception of Jiamin, did not like the bread. I kind of regretted my choice of big mouth bites because it was so heaty and gave me pimples on my chin :( I guess I need to steer clear of fast food for sometime.

had dinner at tcc on last sunday followed by a dessert fix. gave their mascarpone a shot :) It's definitely worth the calories.

Yum2
caught Kungfu Panda 2 yesterday and it was hilarious much. Initially, our plan was to have lunch at Hard Rock but we didn't fancy the set lunch menu for the day. It was crispy sea bass, chicken Teriyaki and lasagna. crispy sea bass was anything but crispy, lasagna was too dry for my liking. We crossed our fingers and were hoping for the set lunch menu offering the ribs heh! Never mind, we hopped over to Modesto instead which had proven to be a wise decision. The pastas were good, both the tomato and cream sauce were super tasty. Yesterday was also a great chance to use the clear umbrella I got from Daiso for 2 bucks but unfortunately, I did not bring it out of the house.

headed down to candy empire at vivocity to hunt for red rock deli potato chips (Dijon Mustard & Honey) for my brother but unfortunately, none was on the rack :( The flavour is so darn unique that you can't find in other brands and one chip is sufficient to get you hooked. I wasn't going to leave vivo empty handed. heh, so we stopped by F21 and I finally bought my very first pair of pants for teaching practicum. figured that the pair of pants was worth investing in since the price's relatively cheap for a pair of pants and I really do need a pair of pants for practicum unless I am allowed to wear shorts to schools.

I'm just a couple of episodes away from the season 2 finale of vampire diaries. Vampire diaries is at least a gazillion times better than the twilight series (I am referring to the movie, not the book.) The movies were so bad that I didn't even bother watching new moon and eclipse. Anyway, I've got no preference between the Salvatore brothers since both are equally hot. I'm done with gossip girl season 4, can't wait for season 5 though. chuck and blair ftw! I could care less about the drama between the rest of the cast. Tried watching big bang but sadly, shows like such aren't meant for airheads like me I guess. Mentalist is next on my to-watch-list! :D

I'm running out of good TVB shows to watch. I'm thinking of watching Ghetto Justice but only two episodes had been broadcast in Hong Kong. Most likely, I am going to give my sister of eternal flower a miss despite the stellar cast of Raymond lam and Charmaine Sheh. It looks like another trash show produced by TVB. Yes sir, sorry sir was a total let down. In short, it was a waste of time.

head over heels

2011-05-20T20:56:00.002+08:00

Life's been good though repetitive but I ain't complaining :) been too caught up with watching series lately. Completed My Princess last night and it was awesome much. It's very difficult not to fall head over heels in love with the drama and of course, the lead actors! Song Seung Heon is smokin' hot. I am thinking of watching east of eden just for him, HAH. But it's 56 episodes I am talking about plus korean series are known for being long winded. I shall see.

<3

a taste of freedom

2011-05-01T17:15:00.012+08:00

Oh my, I am such a bum. I haven't been here for almost three months. It's labour day today! celebrated my brother's birthday just now over a buffet lunch :) Pretty good food for the price I'd say. My bro's jetting off to Los Angeles for a week next saturday for ISEF and it's freeee (sponsored by MOE/A*Star/Science centre) I wanna go tooooooooo!

The GE are next saturday and for the very first time, I'm actually interested and looking forward to the results. If you know me well enough, you'll probably know who I am rooting for. Not that it really matters since I am not even allowed to vote. Aljunied voters perhaps you should read this if you haven't.

Anyway, year one's officially over! Semester 2 had been terribly packed and fast paced and I was already burning out towards the end of the semester. I'm just relieved that it's over though I'm pretty much screwed. but who cares, at least it's over. Party now and the results can wait. Life's good when you don't have to wake up every morning, worrying about the lesson plan, tutorials, research paper and what not. It's like you have all the time in the world to waste your life away HAHAHA. And I am so unmotivated to look for a job y'knowwww, I just feel like bumming around for two whole months (which I probably would) before I go for practicum. Fortunately or unfortunately, I am posted to both bendemeer (Is this how you spell?!?!) pri and sec. Seriously, I don't really care which primary school I am posted to because I am just going to spend a week there. It's the secondary school that counts. Sigh, I can only hope for the best and my only consolation is that bendemeer sec is so much nearer to my house compared to the primary school that's like 9 bus stops away!?!

Dad bought me a new camera because I carelessly spoiled my old one which should've been replaced a looooong time ago! I am still pondering whether I should get a BB/Iphone or maybe just any cheap phone since I only use the phone to sms actually. I'll see.

Baby's in camp for the weekends and it's gonna be this way for the next two weeks I supposed? It may be better this way since town is less crowded on weekdays (Y). Went shopping last week and I went home empty handed which was so disappointing! There was simply nothing that's worth buying. It's terribly annoying that there's nothing to buy when you really want to spend! I finished watching "Grace Under Fire" yesterday which was unexpectedly good and I am ten episodes through Yes Sir, Sorry Sir. Relic of an Emissary will be next :) I can't get enough of TVB shows, seriously! My addiction to TVB Dramas began at the age of eight and it has been this way for nearly twelve years :) How amazing is that.

stresssssed

2011-02-10T07:34:00.003+08:00

I'm so stressed out seriously having to meet so many deadlines. I honestly can't wait for next wednesday to be over and I'll be liberated though only for a short while before the nightmare strikes again. I reckon I failed both my maths tests unless someone miraculously fill up my test paper for me so I guess I'm pretty much doomed this semester. I've so much difficulty even with the first two tests, what's more the later chapters right? I am still seeing stars for my number theory lecture and to think that I thought finite mathematics was easier and supposedly the maths module this sem to "pull up" our gpa but sadly I was proven wrong by the maths test which was such a disaster and I shan't go into details. .

Individual assignments are due next week and I haven't even written a word for my lesson plan. I will be eternally grateful if I wake up one morning to see all my essays, labreports nicely written on my desk. Even if its sloppy work, I don't really give a damn. Just produce 1k words each per essay and a 2 page minimum lesson plan and I will be over the moon.

I wonder what I'm doing with my life. I am neither a science nor maths person. university maths is so effing tough and I can't stand the THOUGHT of doing practicals y'knowww. It stressed me out so badly. Practicals and me just don't click. heck, I am not cut out for studying. I suck at my arts subjects too, my secondary school humanities, geography in particular, was epic fail.

alright. got to pack my stuffs and leave for my three hour academic writing class. Look at how interesting and enriching my life is.

you, me & the stars

2011-01-22T08:39:00.003+08:00

It's only eight fourty am in the morning and sadly, I'm procrastinating again which I know shouldn't be the case, I'll prolly regret later on sighhhh :/

Results were out on Tuesday, unexpectedly. It was rumoured to be released on Thursday so when I saw lilian's post on fb, I literally got a shock and my hands turned cold. guess I wasn't mentally prepared. It took me awhile before I dared to view my results, albeit reluctantly. Not fantastic results for sure given the amount I've studied (HAHA), but I'm thankful enough =) It's been long since I've seen "better" results. Anyone who knows me well enough probably knows that I've been a consistently bad performer in AJ, scoring Us for nearly every subject so yeahhhh, let's hope and pray that I'll be able to keep this up this semester! (very unlikely though. lol)

There's no doubt that school's getting worse with sem 2's content being much harder sem 1's. Seriously, maths and chem classes (number theory in particular) appear to be more like astronomy classes to yours truly, since I see nothing but "stars". Now, it seems all silly with me complaining so much about semester 1 work back then. I kinda miss the sem 1 lecturers too, they were so much better. Oh man, the only thing I'm looking forward to right now would be the awesome break for Chinese new year though I'll probably be piled with more work, or rather I AM already piled with work for CNY.

went shopping with mummy for CNY dresses yesterday since I ain't got any classes on Friday (Y). I wanted to get a mint green and/or baby pink dress or a maxi but I bought neither of the above :( I can never pull off mint green/baby pink dresses and as for maxi dress, I figured that I'll probably not wear it more than once.

I've got a love-hate relationship with Sundays seriously. I want Sundays to come because I get to go out with baby but then again, I dread Sundays simply because it spells school on the next day. Alright, it's nine. I need to get back to my books. it's a tough battle with number theory this semester. I honestly can't foresee myself doing chemistry/mathematics for four years. whatever, life goes on.

when the school blues kick in

2011-01-09T21:33:00.006+08:00

The school blues are kickin' in and it's making me feel down and restless. The thought of school kills. All the tutorials, essays, projects and frequent tests are coming back to me. Year 1 is already unbearable enough, I wonder how I'm going to make it through the last four years of my academic life. Seriously, I need something to cheer me up, something that will distract me. damn it, I've never dreaded school this much, not that I can remember.

The only thing worth looking forward would be CNY followed by recess week and most importantly, the highly anticipated long sem break! And hopefully a getaway with my friends would materialize during july! Alrighttttt, need to stop looking forward to the fun and face the harsh reality that SCHOOL IS STARTING TOMORROW. I think I'm getting more and more incoherent which shows I'm truly very depressed about school! ): SIGH.

met up with the ijclique on friday with the exception of jolene! had dinner at osaka town and we hung around chijmes and did what girls were best at - camwhore! :)

when we are together ♥
okay dokey, I'm gonna continue dwelling in self pity that school's starting tomorrow. goodbye earthlings.

6th day into the new year

2011-01-06T09:27:00.006+08:00

It's already the 6th day into the new year and honestly, I've been enjoying every bit of it (: My pathetically short holidays are coming to an end and school's in for me next Monday unlike all the other NTU students. I'm perfectly fine with it though since school ends earlier for me than me. I totally abhor the idea of still struggling with exams when the rest of the world are done with it.

I finally received my long overdue timetable yesterday and to my DELIGHT (no sarcasm intended), finally some justice is served and I'm blessed with a four-day work week! you probably can imagine how ecstatic I was when I first saw my timetable. I finish school at 1230 on Thursday and I ain't got any lessons on Friday (YYY). My lessons are in the earlier part of the day and it's four hours straight on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday with no breaks in between and I'M DONE FOR THE DAY :) ahhh, I feel so loved by the timetabling committee! HAHA. Wednesday's no doubt the worst day with lessons from morning all the way till evening but I've to be contented. This timetable is way better than last sem already so for now, I'm just hoping to have a half day on cny eve which unfortunately falls on a Wednesday so that I could get back in time for reunion dinnerrrrrrr! y'know I'll be so happy if they would just kindly postpone the last lesson.

this holidays have been awesome much and it really helps that baby's on leave since last week otherwise I'll be so bored at home.But now, I feel shagged from going out everyday and there's no doubt that I've put on weight and am growing horizontally as much as I would rather live in self denial and believe that I'm not.

Seriously, I go to town nearly every single day but ain't complaining. It beats going to jurong anytime :( Speaking of which, I need to make a trip down to the mountains to get my number theory textbook before the first lesson. DAMN IT.

Anyway, was out with baby on sunday. walked around town and vivo for the umpteenth time. decided on dinner at ABC brickworks since we just had to try the much raved about yuan yuan claypot rice! we took a bus from vivo and took a long walk before we finally reached the place. So obviously, me being me, It would be a waste if we just travelled all the way here via public transport just for the claypot rice right? We got the xlbs too, they were so juicy and cheap! ABC brickworks reminds me so much of the hawker centre at chinatown!

had lunch at jacks on Tuesday at the heeren outlet which proved to be a wise choice. It was so quiet and I could get my favourite sofa seat for four though there was only two of us. I'd say Jacks place did improve, I totally love the dessert of that day. No idea what was the tart I ate but I just shoved it into my mouth since it was so yummy. lol! caught tourist at the grand Cathay afterwards and the ending was just ridiculously stupid -.- headed to orchard central for gelare (YYYYYYYYYYYY) after which ^-^

went down to waldron's place yesterday and played at the hot spa before we rushed to plaza sing for the set lunch at cafe cartel before it ends and it is only when my bro told me that there's a cafe cartel at Nex then I realized how stupid we were. Anyway, to our dismay, cafe cartel made a switch between wednesday and friday :( I was still thinking of trying the seafood platter!

I'm four episodes away from the finale of LTT. The only reason why I'm watching this is simply because I've too much time on my hands and it's just four more episodes so might as well finish it off rather than leave it hanging. I just finished watching Gun Metal Grey which truly was an extremely pleasant surprise. GMG was SO GOOD I swear. I just feel so sad for the crew and cast of GMG since TVB doesn't seem to promote it. My only complaint would be the less than perfect ending. Nancy improved heaps in GMG, she definitely is more deserving of the best supporting female award for her role as Ah Sze compared to Fala's Ching Ching in No Regrets. I'm looking forward to seeing more of Vincent Wong onscreen too ^^

kay, I'm going out later again and gonna rush home for some home cooked dinner! Mom's making popiahs tonight! HAHA, DAMN EXCITED. I know, I'm supposed to skip dinner after a heavy lunch but I'll leave that to next week when I get back to the mountains (pulau NTU FYI). I shall enjoy the last leg of my holidays!

hello twenty eleven!

2010 passed by so fleetingly and come to think of it, I haven't exactly accomplished anything last year. Not that I ever accomplish anything in the past ten odd years of my life. spent more than half of last year idling and taking up part time jobs such as telemarketing and tuition. After which, it was adjusting to uni & hall life and getting over how much of a bitch travelling to ntu was. Well, I reckon the most productive thing I've done last year was obtaining my driving license though I still can't park properly for nuts :( I figured that I'd rather be chauffeured around than drive on my own.

Oh well, anyway, I'm not too optimisitc about 2011. sem 2's definitely gonna be worse and there's already a maths test on the first week of school ): Wouldn't it be good if we can turn the clock to 2014? I.WANT.TO.GRADUATE. (although I know I'd probably regret saying this when I'm really out of school)

had dinner with ijclique last wednesday at fish and co. Coincidentally, it was ladies night so we had 1 for 1 :) be jealous, boys! heh! haven't seen the bunch for so long but I was already so shagged from all the walking in the day thanks to joke chung lol

thursday was spent with baby at pasir ris park! Lucky us, there was a pasar malam at white sands so we managed to munch on ramly burger! delicious much :) but seriously, Singapore is getting so boring. There's nowhere to go! whatever that can be found at other shopping malls can be found at town, defeating the purpose of travelling a thousand miles to venture other shopping malls when town is a gazillion times more convenient.

And this was taken on monday when the ajclique came over to my house (:

I just wrapped up the last episode of EMYM. It's definitely nothing near being fantastic (I think I'm a very hard to please audience) but it was satisfactory still and I'm a sucker for happy endings ^^ I'm finally able to download the episodes of secret garden but before that, I'm gonna go finish up the most recent episode of links to temptation.

Wishing everyone a fruitful year ahead!
Happy New Year!

The Final Stop, Happiness

I'm bushed, a quick update before I hit the sack. I think I'm obsessed with Autumn Concerto. I re-watched the last episode this morning though I just watched it yesterday and I'm now, watching the drama serial again on channel u. Autumn Concerto reminds me so much of My Lucky Star (which I loved very much).It is undeniable that Autumn Concerto is pretty draggy at some parts but it's definitely worth watching. It's been a long time since I last watched a good taiwanese idol drama. I'm running out of shows to keep me occupied already, I'm currently following Links to Temptation but seriously, the storyline is just WEIRD and it's kinda creepy, not exactly the type of show that I'll like. I gave playful kiss a shot thinking that I would like it since I enjoyed the taiwan version of playful kiss very much and I'm the type of audience who can watch the same old storyline over and over again and not get sick of it. I watched all three versions of Meteor garden and it just got better. However, playful kiss proved me wrong. It couldn't even sustain my interest for 15 minutes. I was so bored that I felt like crying, even kim hyun joong couldn't work his charm and save the show. pathetic.

met waldron just now and we'd dinner at paradise dynasty. just had dinner there a couple of days ago, it's gonna be our favourite haunt for chinese food (at least for now). Gone are the imperial treasure and crystal jade days. Ain't the xiaolongbaos colourful? The crab roe, black truffle, foie gras and original had to be the better ones. Anyway, I feeeeeeel so sinful! Holidays ain't doing me any good, I'm definitely growing horizontally. but then again, life is short and school's starting in less than two weeks time. gosh, time flies when you're having fun.

AJ clique came over to my house yesterday and basically, we just bummed around. heh, no pictures yet so till then!:) tomorrow's gonna be another exciting day with IJ clique and minghui! and thurs/fri will be spent with baby! Oh boyyy, I'm loving this life :)

redefining awesome

2010-12-22T16:21:00.007+08:00

life's been treating me well and we're gonna keep it that way for the next twenty days before the entire vicious cycle repeats. I just registered for my courses for sem 2 and checked out the exam dates. I'm gonna be living for 25th april for a proper long break! Yeah, I know, it's not even christmas yet and I'm thinking of the long holiday after next sem already. but seriously, I can't wait! I need a break from school, helpppp!

I'm done with No regrets and Can't buy me love and I watched the tvb anniversary awards as well. Well, I'd say that most of the awards are deserving probably except for the most favourite male character award which went to Raymond Lam. Yes, I'm a huge fan of Raymond Lam but honestly, he's the least deserving out of the top 5. I guess I can understand why Best series went to Can't buy me love instead of No regrets. Viewers/judges prolly prefers something light hearted, less depressing and emotionally distressing. But, No regrets remains my favourite series of 2010. Wayne & Sheren FTW! What was baffling and at the same time, disappointing was that A Fistful of Stances and sisters of pearl failed to make it into top 5 for best series. So tvb, tell me about it.

I reckon I put on a fair amount of weight ever since school started and holidays ain't making things any bettterrrrr :/ had lunch at hot stones at clarke quay last week which was awesome much especially the creme brulee despite the fact that there was an overload of caramel. caught hello stranger afterwards which turned out to be better than rapunzel. Rapunzel was good but hello stranger's better. It's certainly worth eight bucks.

met jiamin on thursday for shopping and more piggin' pity that marcia and joyce were still having their exams :( Mango was our first stop but the sale was disappointing though. There wasn't anything really worth buying. checked out the other usual shops and we burned a hole in our pockets lol :) settled for a yummy but sinful lunch at bakerzin :/

met up with the AJ clique last sunday too, pics are on fb! heh okay, gossip girl's done loading. goodbye earthlings :)

hello holidays! ♥

2010-12-14T18:59:00.008+08:00

hello holidays, I missed you so bad! :) when the calculus paper concluded today, it spells freeeeeeedom! Though I reckon's today's the worst paper out of all four and I've myself to blame for not studying much and having a goldfish memory. When I took out my tutorials to redo them, I wondered to myself how I did them. What a clown I can be. Oh well it's over, I really don't want to have more time to study for my papers, mugging's such a painful process that I don't want to be reminded of but as much as I dread studying, my holidays are so pathetically short. face it, school's gonna start AGAIN in less than a month's time. we'll talk about that another time anyway.

I'm catching up on my tv shows right now. No regrets's first up on my list and probably followed by can't buy me love and perhaps, every move you make? heh,TVB FTW! I need an avenue to watch gossipgirl season 4 too and I guess I should give the mentalist a shot someday since my brother already downloaded all the episodes thus far.

I'm so egggggcited for tmrw with baby and shopping on thursday with jiamin! :D Need to get christmas cards (very last minute I know, blame exams! :@) and do some christmas shopping :) teehee. Gosh, I really have the urge to spend y'knowww. I need to reward myself, though I didn't study very hard haha. I can't imagine my GPA for this sem seriously especially since I handed up two pieces of trash (essays) for educational psychology and critical perspectives :(

had lunch buffet at rise at sands a few weeks back (: The variety was sufficient, love the desserts especially and the aglio olio was good. haha, waldron can vouch for that, the piggy had three plates.

Okay, I've no idea when was this. we were at the ship. It's located at a pretty ulu part of orchard and I honestly, have no clue how to get there. I simply followed blindly. heh, what's new? Anyway, they have a new outlet at Nex. we had the grilled salmon and the steak which were good but the funny thing was nearly everyone in the restaurant (it was packed despite the location) ordered their fried sliced fish beehoon. I mean, it's a western restaurant so why is everyone having chinese food. So this simply implies that I need to return to the restaurant again. HAHA.

I need to get back to watching No Regrets. Freedom is awesome :)

two down, two more to go

2010-12-09T20:51:00.004+08:00

It's been awhile since I visited this space and I'm here to rant again, yes again. I always turn to here when I'm bored, frustrated and basically, just unhappy with life. I've got a gazillion photos in my camera but I ain't got time to upload them. Okay fine, I'm exaggerating, definitely not a gazillion pics, but you get the drift.

two papers down, two more to go. Algebra and General Chemistry were alright I supposed. I hope I wasn't too careless. Calculus's supposedly my favourite out of all four modules but seriously, it's killing me. I haven't been practicing for such a long time and given my gold fish memory, I won't be able to remember/recall a damn thing. screw it and I can't prove for nuts. screw the mean value theorem :( Plus plus plus, I haven't touched physical chem at all, and I do mean PHYSICALLY. My papers are next monday and tuesday, a sense of impending doom, like seriously. Gosh, I should really start folding colourful paper cranes for my imminent death.

On a happier note, baby's coming back from taiwan on sat ^^ hehe, something to look forward to which also means that my saturday's burn. sigh, I should just bring a spade next mon and tues to dig a grave for myself or bring a rope to hang myself if there's even somewhere in the sports hall to tie it or perhaps, tag along with steph to indo to be a maid. kay, I shall cross my fingers and pray real hard. god, help me. I seriously can't wait for exams to be over. The long wait is excruciating. It makes me wonder how I'm gonna survive four years of uni life. FAINTS.

9 minutes's up, back to calculus.

deadlines

2010-11-02T15:08:00.004+08:00

Oh man, I've got so much to blog and so many pictures to upload but I don't know where to start! I've neglected this space for more than a month. Time wait for no man and it's November already. Usually, this had to be my favourite month cause it's my bday month (Y) and it's the commencement of the awesome longggg year end holidays. But it's not so now :( The deadlines are pressing close which spells doom for me and tests are becoming so frequent. It's gonna become an every week thing in no time I supposed and speaking of which, I'm supposed to be mugging for my test tomorrow instead of ranting here.

I'm counting down to 14dec, can't wait for my exams to end. Or rather, I'm counting down to the end of 4 years. I can't imagine how happy I would be on my graduation day. God knows how much I dread to study. And I'm still so damn pissed off with psychology. Can we not study that trash elective for pete's sake? And to make my life more miserable, it's an elective that's gonna haunt us all the way up to year 3? I don't know and I don't want to know. to hell you go, ed psych.

On a lighter note, I feel so happy for my tutee :) At least she made an improvement and I guess this is the kind of satisfaction that teachers are looking for in their job? heh, I don't knoww but I'm just glad :) Oh yeah, one last thing before I forget, go try the boston lobster set at sakae teppanyaki. It's awesome heh, love the juicy juicy lobsters big time. I'll post a picture here if I feel hardworking enough to anytime soon.

Alright, enough, time to get back to my books. till then :)

screw independence

2010-09-24T12:30:00.005+08:00

I know I should be studying but I just need an avenue to rant seriously. Uni suck ttm and to think that I thought A levels was the end of the world. I attend my lessons with dread each day and all I look forward to would be my meals and of course, to go home :) Uni's all about independent learning but unfortunately I'm anything but independent. I was right about myself from the start, I'm not cut out for hall life, I miss everything about my home, my room, my mom's cooking, my champagne mooncakes and everyone and everything else that's at home. Staying in the hall is no doubt convenient but if it's at the expense of the comfort of my home, sorry no, I'd rather be caught up in the traffic jams. I know I'd probably regret saying this later on.

I'm so not looking forward to next week with maths quiz on tues and the much dreaded practical on friday. I'm beginning to regret my choice of maths and chemistry already, chemistry especially. Practicals and I just don't click and never will. I think I developed some sort of phobia for practical since the tan aye leng days. I can't imagine myself teaching my students how to do practicals next time when I myself can't do prac for nuts. Anyway, it doesn't even make sense for us to learn something that's so difficult when we're just gonna be teaching secondary school maths and science isn't it! sigh, life would have been ten times better if I've chosen chinese, primary track instead. If only I could close my eyes and sleep through next week, if only.

Still, I'm thankful for the friends that make school much better :) Alright, four years will zoom by, I just need to keep on psycho-ing myself. yes, four years will zoom by, it will.

second home

2010-09-10T15:40:00.009+08:00

I have been procrastinately alot lately, be it schoolwork or exercising. I only ran once this week at pulau NTU and I just can't really be bothered anymore. School made me so shagged and the funny thing is I'm physically drained rather than mentally drained. Surely, attending lectures after the extremely long 9 months break was no doubt tiring since I've long grew accustomed to being a couch potato infront of my laptop but it was the climbing of stairs and all the walking around NTU that killed me. I've got so much to rant.

First of all, NTU is so effing big, walking itself is enough to tire me out. Furthermore, my hall just had to be located on the hill and to make life more difficult for me, my room's on the sixth floor. Unlike the priviledged ones in hall 3 and 16, we don't have lifts ): So yeah, every single day, poor Joyce and I have to climb 89 steps before we get to our room which provides us with a scenic view of NTU :) Next, I usually take shuttlebus B to NIE and alight at the NIE library where there's this MIGHTY LONGGGGGGG flight of stairs which yours truly had to climb before I get into NIE. I'm srsly not exaggerating, go see it for yourself. I shall snap a photo of the daunting flight of stairs the next time round.

Lectures have been alright, well, I could understand the notes but the thing is that the examples they usually put in the notes are always much more manageable than the questions in the homework. Each time, I never fail to not know how to do the homework. Oh wells, what are tutorials for? LOL. And sad to say that I abhor my electives more than my core subjects. Just can't wait to get over with it and be done with especially for educational psychology. good gracious, 3hrs every monday really kills. Uni textbooks are also ridiculously expensive and thick. Thank god, I don't have to fork out a single cent for my textbooks heheheee :D The free laptop is also better than expected and saves me the trouble of lugging my own laptop home every weekend. phew!

Anyway, apart from all the walking and climbing of stairs as well as boring lessons and internet which gets cut off every now and then, it's been pretty good so far. Hall's nice and all with clean toilets and a comfortable room. The airconditioner works perfectly well, or maybe a little too well, that Joyce and I were freezing for the first few nights. Dinner's interesting with us thinking of which canteen to head to for dinner. haha! tried canteen 1 and 2 with marcia and Joyce so far and the nie canteen with my schoolmates. heh, cheap and nice food I would say and I'm so egggggg-cited to try the western food at the nie canteen! hah! I know, imma glutton.

my second home!
But, I still miss home. I'm so glad to be back to civilisation and am anticipating dinner already, mommy's gonna cook despite it being a public holiday (she never cooks on public hols). looking forward to cereal prawns, nom nom nommm! headed to taka mooncake fest for the third time yesterday with baby after dinner at mos. heheeheeee, I simply love trying mooncakes though I still have mooncakes in my fridge :)

baby has leave next monday but there's school sigh. I'm having monday blues and wednesday greens already, my worst two days of the week! Okay, actually fridays are pretty bad too. I'm only off at 7.30PM, I can't believe my screwed up timetable. alright, I've got lots of catching up to do for my tv shows HAHAHA. Let's hope I survive my second week of school. till then! ~

kite flying with my awesome og last week! :)

sugar, spice & everyth nice!

2010-08-28T09:06:00.012+08:00

Uni's starting in a week's time and sad to say that I'm not a least bit excited. Apart from the travelling that's gonna be such a bitch, the timetable's a nightmare too. My days end late most of the time and plus, I've six hours of lectures continously on monday. mind you, it's CONTINOUSLY. Now all of a sudden, three hours of lessons straight don't seem so bad afterall. But just when I thought my timetable was the most disastrous, there are even more terrible ones out there. Ought to count my blessings, no?

gosh, I'm already feeling homesick ): I'm so gonna miss the comfort of my home and my mommy's cooking big time. sigh. I plan to hibernate at home till school starts but that's obviously impossible with teambonding next wednesday, freshmen welcome on friday and there's still the hostel which Joyce and I have yet to clean up. I don't know anyone in my group for service learning. good gracious, can't they just let us do it with our og members? I would be more than grateful, really :)

Anyway, the commencement of uni would mean that I can quit my job :) Next tuesday's officially my last day. It's been nearly six months since I joined telemarketing and I'm surprised at myself. I still remember telling steph I would resign after a month but the pay and the flexible working hours held me back. Plus, the people had been very kind to me and the office is just three bus stops away (yknow how much I hate to travel)! It's already like the perfect job for me but it's definitely not easy. Sometimes, I can't help but find myself annoying when I keep bugging the clients. hahaha. I can't imagine how tough it is being a FC/agent seriously but I know I'm definiely not cut out to be one. All jobs are tough in fact, there's no easy way out in life unless you happen to marry a billionaire. That would be a dream come true.

Baby accompanied me to queensway yesterday to get a bag for school but the search for the bagpack which I fancied was futile ): Oh wells, but the meatballs, hotdog buns and baked salmon at Ikea made up for it. heh. Checked out Anchorpoint for the very first time and to our surprise, there were many good bargains. That is, if you don't compare to the prices in bangkok of course.

i♥y
met joyce on thursday night for rostis at marche plus shopping to stock up our wardrobes for uni but I went home empty handed :( Nothing caught my eye. I'm so damn envious of joyce's timetable, life is just so unfair. timetabling committee, please be nicer to me next sem! :)

spent nearly the entire wednesday with my crazy and happening og members! awesome bunch of people, really. but somehow, I feel worried for the future generations. HAHAHA. okay, tsk tsk, better speak for myself. anyway attended the compass ceremony, spent half the time gossiping while waiting for the ceremony to start and guess what! They actually gave us a compass each!

All good things come to an end

2010-08-16T15:50:00.009+08:00

I'm getting heavier by the minute, just finished up the entire bowl of beancurd with gingko nuts. The thought of the amount of sugar in the syrup scares me. It had been a good good week with baby's block leave but sadly, all good things come to an end, he's back in camp now. screw ns ):

Last friday was one of the best black fridays I've ever had. The day started off on an awesome note with me passing my second driving test with 4 demerit points. I'mma so proud of myself even though I don't know how I did that. ahaha, my tester's so friggin nice and lenient and I just happened to be extremely lucky that I didn't mount/strike the kerbs. For all I know, he may be half asleep but who cares? I'm just so thankful that I can bade goodbye to the driving centre for good :) You probably can imagine how thrilled I was on the 13th of August.

Last friday also marks my virgin visit to the night safari. We walked the fishing cat & leopard trail before we headed to the amphitheatre for the creatures of the night show. After which, we proceeded to the forest giant trail where the bridge of suspense was disappointing. It wasn't even shaky or anything. oh wells. The trails were a tad bit scary cause it was obviously, very dark and pretty deserted. Or I just ain't got any guts to begin with haha. The night ended off with the tram ride which was amazing, we were in such close proximity to the animals that you can touch them by stretching your hand slightly or simply sticking your leg out. The elephants and Rhinos were just...HUMONGOUS.

creatures of the night show!

Saturday was spent at Modesto, celebrating steph's birthday! The pizzas were alright, but not fantastic, ate better ones before. but it's the company that matters anyway! chilled at steph's house after that and we played HTHT:)

The results for the subjects allocation are out and I managed to get Maths and Chemistry. However, I don't feel too happy about it though it's my first choice since I don't even know what I want in the first place. but oh wells, I'll just stick with it. I'm more worried about my timetable instead, crossing my fingers for a decent timetable :)

One last thing, anyone care to do something for charity? haha, my bro's selling notebooks, going at just $5 each. All proceeds goes to the singapore children society! Contact me if your interested thanks :)

$5/notebook

It's been a happy happy weekend!

2010-08-09T10:42:00.012+08:00

I'm surprised that I'm up so early today though I barely slept on saturday night and my muscles are still feeling sore from the activities due to the obvious fact that I haven't been exercising much since PE stopped last year? HAHA. Anyway NIE FOC turned out much better than what I expected, prolly because I went there with zero expectations since I read from the forums that it's the legendary boring camp. Anyway, it was great to get to mingle with my soon to be classmates/schoolmates and my OG was awesome company. We spent most of the time talking and it's how funny that there are so many jokers around when we are all supposedly future teachers to be.

The most amazing part was that we actually came in first for amazing race when we didn't even complete all the stations on time and were slacking away at palawan beach. There was some family day event organised by NTUC but the turn out was bad thus it was open to the public. Sooooo, we had free kiwis (REALLY SWEEEEEET ONES!), candy floss and popcorn! Anyway, to put it simply, I'd fun and I feel more optimistic about school now :)

badboyz ftw!
headed home for a short nap after break camp before going down to timbre for jiamin's very belated bday cum gathering! haha, its been soooooo long since I last saw anne, lynda and val. couldn't emphasize more on the 'so'. miss the good ole days in ij & the people that I still can be very comfortable with even after not seeing each other for long. I totally heart the pizzas at timbre, they're so cripsy thin. I can never have enough of them!

met baby last friday and we had free popcorn and candyfloss at 313! My affinity with popcorn and candy floss these days. haha. I would've prefer free nachos though heh :)

baby wrapping the peking duck hehe!
I feel so happy about not having to work for the entire of this week. It's gonna be a good good week :) but I am still worried about my driving test on friday. Please god help meeeee, I don't wanna fail again :/ hall allocation was released last friday and Joyce & I were allocated hall 9, which unfortunately, is located on the hill :( I don't know how long I'm gonna take to crawl back to the hostel after lectures, damn :( But at the very least, there's joyce and the airconditioner, I need to learn to count my blessings! by the way,
happy national day!:)

Here I go again

2010-07-27T16:08:00.010+08:00

just came back from my neighbour's house. learnt how to bake raisin and apple muffins :) seems easy, gonna try it all by myself one day heh. work was fine today but still very boring and I'm getting lazier seriously. I used to work four times a week (mornings only) and I've reduced it gradually to two mornings a week. Alright, I admit, I'm hopelessly lazy.

And really, time flies! It's been almost a month since my driving test and before I even realize, it struck me that my next test is in two weeks' time. holy shit. It's my last chance before school starts, I can't afford to fail again. I wouldn't have time for driving when school starts since as all of you know, I'll be cooped up in a jungle and plus, driving lessons are ridiculously expensive. I'm just glad that I'm not paying for them myself. Thank god for my awesome parents, really:)

had lunch at fremantle seafood market at clarke quay with baby yesterday! I love his weekday offs totally, I prefer going out on a weekday to weekend anytime. It would be good if he gets his weekday off weeeeeeeeeekly. right, dream on. I had roasted barramundi with garlic pesto and pumpkin rissotto while baby had the seabream papilotte with steamed green and pilaf rice. The pumpkin rissotto was thumbs up and you just had to love their chocolate cake. absolutely delicious. walked around central and we went to check out Barcook Bakery's raisin cream cheese bread since Isabel highly reccommended them. It was nice but I still don't fancy raisins, would've been better if it was just creamcheese bread. haaaah.

I had pepperlunch (again!) for dinner last friday. My second time in the week but still loving the food :) stacked up waldron's bowl with food since I was still pretty full from soup restaurant in the afternoon.

I'm done with sisters of pearl, a remarkably intriguing and witty drama which swept me off my feet. It's one of those very rare dramas whereby everyone's a villian, in one way or another. Usually, one of the main characters just had to be the epitome of perfect. For example, in beyond the realm of conscience, Charmaine's character Lau Sam Ho was unbelievably kind and flawless which makes it rather unrealistic. Anyway, I particularly enjoy watching the characters plot, scheme and backstab each other. My favourite character had to be Michael Tao, there was so much depth to his character and as much as I hate the fact that he died in the finale (you know I love happily ever after endings), perhaps his death was necessary to leave a deeper impression on the audience. I'm never a fan of pre modern dramas but sisters of pearls is definitely not to be missed. It's undeniably one of the best drama of year 2010 alongside A Fistful of Stances. Although the cast may not seem appealing but never judge a book by its cover. give it a shot, you've got to love it.

Uni's starting in a month's time, so near yet so far. And I'm still not a least bit excited about the new chapter of my life. The thought of tutorials, lectures, exams, projects, service learning and many other extra curriculum activities simply puts me off. I know this is probably the nth time I've said this but still NTU IS IN A FREAKING JUNGLE and staying in the hostel gonna deprived me of homecooked food :( Apart from staying in the hostel with joyce and hopefully, marcia's room gonna be somewhere near us, I really can't think of anything that makes school exciting and worth looking forward to. Perhaps I should learn to seek the positives in all negative situation.

unhealthy food ftw!

2010-07-21T21:55:00.008+08:00

feeling kind of listless tonight, guess I shall hit the sack soon. went all the way down to ntu in the morning for the programme briefing and ntu is seriously, goddamn confusing and big. Oh c'mon, it's the 21st century already, make it e-briefing for goodness sake! got to know my examination and vacation dates and what not and unfortunately, this year end dec hols of mine gonna be the shortest year end holidays I've ever had thanks to the AWESOME YOG. sense my sarcasm? signed up for the compulsory nie foc and I'm so glad that it's a mere 26 hours. phewww! Although I'm paying 30 bucks for a mere 26 hours camp while other people are paying 50 bucks for a 6 days 5 nights camp BUT yours truly isn't complaining. I'm more than relieved than its just 26hours. get over and be done with and its home sweeeeeeeet home!

y'know I think I'm going to turn into a grumpy old woman when school starts, going around complaining about every single thing and how much personal time it is taking away from me. NS obviously isn't going to make things better for me and to make my life even more miserable, NTU just have to be so crazily farrrrrrrrrrrrrr! My aunt even thought that NTU was at Tuas! Travelling is such a bitch. SIGH.

looking forward to the end of work tmrw! That would mean that baby's back from fieldcamp! (YYY) I'm so dreading the driving lesson on friday, god knows how much I abhor driving. It has, unfortunately, became a chore now :( oh wells, at least there's the weekends to look forward to and hopefully baby gonna get monday off again! hehe. Life's all about doing things you hate before you get to enjoy, right?

had chompchomp with wal last friday! ordered all the unhealthy oily food though I barely recovered from my sickness. heh, but who cares. I need a break after a whole week of disgusting food and antibiotics! didn't take many photos cause my hands were oily from the chicken wings. been fantasizing about the yummy chicken wings in my mouth since foreverrrrrrrrr. caught despicable me on monday with baby and we had unhealthy food at ion basement. Oh yeah before I forget, cinnamon melts are back! so elated when we discovered the awesome sugary balls at macs! Btw anyone knows where to get a minion plush toy? they're so cuteeeeee!

went shopping with joyce & marcia yesterday while jiamin's busy doing cip. HAHAHAHA. Bought a new black cardi from zara since I lost mine. wanted a grey one but decided that black's safer anyways. dinner was at pepperlunch and it was yummy to the max. i heart pepperlunch big time!:D

celebrated isabel and terence's birthday last saturday at tripleone somerset.

I need my bed, goodnight world :)

sick cat

2010-07-12T19:29:00.003+08:00

The weather's terribly hot these days, I reckon I'm gonna wither in the scorching heat soon enough. Although aircon is a must-on for me at night but I can very well live without it as well as the fan in the day but not anymore. The weather is THAT bad. been sick for the past few days and I think I am still somewhat sick. My fever subsided (and hopefully not coming back to visit me anymore) and diarrhoea's getting better. I'm not complaining about the diarrhoea though cause I really need to shed some calories, haven't been running since I fell sick ): went to the doc yesterday and he even says my sickness is weird. He even asked whether I went overseas recently. Thankfully, I didn't. Otherwise, god knows what blood tests I've to go for and what not and maybe even get quarantined lol touch wood.

caught toy story last sunday at cine which was awesome ttm but I was so pissed with the architecture of cine and seriously, I think I'm never gonna catch another movie at cine on a weekend and when I'm in a rush. The escalators are so far away from one another and to make things worse on a weekend, the lift is always packed, it's almost impossible to get into one. wth.

SO FRIGGIN CUTE RIGHT?
went back to aj last wednesday with bala and zl for their certs. hang around the school for quite sometime and we saw a couple of familiar faces. headed to town and chilled at billybombers :)

met waldron at cck to collect his lost phone. he's forever losing his phone -.- took an extremely long bus ride back to town, hoping to have imperial treasure for dinner but the queue was effing long so we checked out crystal jade instead which obviously was no better. decided to settle for yoshi before we cont eating at the foodfair at taka! :D

Panfried xiaolongbaos ftw!
went to moe on saturday for TTA. It took less than an hour prolly cause my number was 16. heh, thank god being kiasu like always, we arrived 20minutes earlier. It's always better to be kiasu. I still don't know what subject I want to teach, everything seems difficult! It's so hard to decide. I kind of regretted not choosing BA then I can do chinese. That's seriously the easiest for me and doesn't require much effort to do well. Well, that's the case in primary and secondary but of course, I can't say for sure for uni plus if I do chinese, I've to take up chinese lit as well. fml.

just took my antibiotics and fever medicine. gross ttm especially the antibiotics. The most bitter I've ever eaten in my entire life ): I'm so bloated from drinking so much water today. work resumes tmrw and baby's going outfield again! can't wait for friday to come! ^-^

screw you, driving

2010-06-30T21:48:00.004+08:00

haven't been blogging so that pretty much explains why I'm here. screwed my driving test today. It didn't come as a surprise but still the feeling sucks knowing how much more money I'm gonna waste. damn, I feel the pinch though I'm not the one paying heehee. sigh, I'm just worried that I won't pass even after the ten thousandth time. yeh, I know, sounds way too exaggerating but that's how hopeless I'm ):

met baby yesterday for lunch at cafe cartel. I was so full from munching the bread, its no special bread but I just enjoy it. I don't know what's wrong with breads and me these days. heh. acc waldron to mt faber to get his ns stuffs before we headed back to somerset for gelare waffle. It's half priced tuesdayyyyy (YYY!)

WAFFFFFFFFFFLE!:D

last saturday was spent on kite flying and picnic with the class at marina barrage followed by dinner at 313's F.I.S.H! I shall let the photos do the talking :)

0108!:D

some of the overdue photos with baby last week! :D

at MFM! :)

we want hersheys~

Haagen dazs! (Caramel biscuit and cream is the best heh!)
kay anyway I just completed A Fistful of Stances! AFOS was friggin' awesome with an engaging plot and an amazing cast, it's the best tvb series this year so far! Kenneth Ma truly impressed me in AFOS, he outshone Kevin Cheng and has brilliant chemistry with co star selena li. Anyways, I enjoyed every bit of the show, I laughed and cried along with the cast. AFOS is definitely a must watch show of the year though the first few episodes may be kinda confusing but yeah, do perservere and you'll reap the rewards haha:) I finished Mysteries of Love sometime ago, I enjoyed it given that I'm a huge fan of all the four leads but sad to say that it pales in comparison to AFOS. The storyline is too flat and forgettable compared to AFOS heh but I love MOL's cast and am a sucker for happily ever after endings so whatever :)

I'm done with safeguards too, like FINALLY. I took forever cause the videos on tudou just wouldn't cooperate. Anyway, I'm just glad that I persisted, safeguards's another awesome series. heh. Apart from the 'good', there are the 'bad' too. Fly With Me bore me to the core and I gave up on episode 12. The storyline was trash, even Ada Choi and Moses Chan couldn't save this ratings. enough said.

just caught steps finale on tv. I'm beginning to think that I'm wasting my life away on tv but oh wells. gotta sleep soon since there's work tomorrow. sigh, sian, can't wait for friday! ~ bye kids!

cramps & ache!

2010-06-19T14:28:00.005+08:00

My stomach cramps are tormenting me and my knees are gonna give way anytime. damn, I hate it when I feel so weak ): met wal yesterday at town after work and walked around but unfortunately (or rather fortunately) there wasn't anything that I caught my eye.

made our way down to queensway after that and baby finally got his blue federer tennis shoes. I saw a pretty white bag which I really really like (FOR NOW!) but I shouldn't buy on impulse, shall give it some thought. grabbed a yummmyy hotdog from ikea before we had dinner at vivo. It's the second time that we're at ikea this week. waldron had like 10 meatballs the other day HAHAHAHA WTH.

Feddy shoes!

caught sex and the city with clique on tuesday which was hilarious to the max, it cracked me up big time. enjoyed it thoroughly though I didn't watch sex and the city 1 but everything about the movie was so glam and stunning! had dinner at hkcafe with clique before meeting waldron :) Anyway, met clique again on wednesday for the much anticipated mango sale. I was told that scotts road was hit by floods so we wanted to change plans and head to cityhall's mango outlets instead but chose to stick to centrepoint eventually and it was a good choice :) I know you guys can't believe it but I only bought a top from the sale which is such a huge improvement from last year, I'm so proud that I finally got a hold of myself during sales. I always have the cheapskate mentality that I'll be losing out if I don't buy during the sale so even if I've got no use for it, I still have to get it.

I'm done with the medical checkup and photo taking. However, I received my NTU and NIE package earlier in the week and there's more things to be done. I've to stop procrastinating. and somehow, the stack of documents I received made everything seem so real and I'm kind of apprehensive of my future. I shall cross my fingers and hope that I didn't make a wrong choice, it's too late to turn back now, isn't it?

I'm so bored nowwwww! baby's doing ndp duty and I'm done with episode 18 and 19 of MOL! Episode 18 was terribly sad, I cried so badly! I'm craving for provence's wassants again though the last time I had them were less than 24 hours ago. someone cure my addiction, please.

udderly delightful

2010-06-09T19:54:00.005+08:00

I feel so bloated now after devouring a plate of grapes and grilled fish sambal. hey, but at least the fish was grilledddddd right? :) yours truly went for driving early in the morning today and it was no surprise that I forgot all my turning points for parking and directional change after a two week break from driving. mommy picked me up and we headed down to citysquare mall and I blew 40bucks again. damn it, I need to abstain from shopping, like seriously. I'm gonna be broke in no time at the rate I'm spending ): bought my favourite eggtarts from fancydelight, thats what I like about citysquare mall!

met clique yesterday at cityhall! We just had to shop cause it's the GSS even if ti means going in and out fo the same shops every other day. settled for dinner at Bali Thai that serves cheap and delectable set meals.

caught toy story 1 & 2 double feature 3D last thursday with jiamin, it was all thanks to the free tics won from swensens, credits goes to my brother for being a die hard fan of swensens. lol. Anyway, I'm so excited for toy story 3! met joyce after the awesome movie and had dinner at tarafuku restaurant! :)

met waldron during his nights out last week and we had waffles and cones at udders! After trying nearly all the flavours, we settled on mao shan wang, awesomely chocolate, snickers ice cream and chocmarsh! zhanglu's gonna love the snickers ice cream cause there's like a mini snickers bar inside the icecream! Anyway, I felt terribly fat afterwards but unfortunately, I can't resist sweet temptations. Really heart udders & tom's palette's icecream!

Mao Shan Wang & awesomely chocolate on waffffffffles! (YYY)

Choc marsh & Snickers icecream!
baby has guard duty this week and probably no nights out sigh. hate his unit to the core, I don't even understand why he's posted there in the first place. damn shit. whatever. still gotta wake up early for appt briefing at moe tmrw and there goes my morning run!

I'm done with season three of gossipgirl and I really really love it alot, my favourite season so far! There's no doubt that Chuck's my favourite character, I certainly hope he didn't die otherwise I would boycott the show. haha, no just j/king but I really adoreeeee the chuck&blair pairing. I feel nothing for the other pairings simply because relationships seem like a joke for the rest of the characters. Dan, vanessa, serena, nate, jenny are all playing merry go rounds, switching partners each season which gets irritating after awhile. At least for chuck, you know that he still loves blair ultimately which makes him so charminggggg :) I'm currently on episode 11 for mysteries of love and am suppressing my overwhelming anticipation for the next! It's the first time (after so many years of watching tvb shows) that I'm actually following a tvb show episode by episode and this says alot! :D

when the music stops

2010-05-31T11:50:00.008+08:00

The sky's so gloomy and raindrops are threatening to pour any minute, it's making me feel more lethargic than ever. Sometimes, I think work is good (though I always complain about having to work), it kills time effectively and plus you can earn some bucks out of it. Not that I don't enjoy bumming around but it gets boring after awhile and I would be broke in no time ): On a side note, shopping with credit cards is BAD, real bad. I don't feel the pain when I spend hahahaha, better quit doing that before it becomes a habit hehhh.

hit the town for the long awaited gss for the past few days and I'd say that the sales were rather disappointing. only managed to get some cheap loots from cotton on when I went shopping last thursday after work with jiamin, they were so cheap so I just had to get them and chuck it into my wardrobe for future use (if any). heh.

Healthy (for once) lunch @ Provence

met baby on vesak day for more shoppppingggg. town was uber crowded due to the fact that its officially the first day of the gss and I spotted felicia in the sea of people! walked around orchard and cityhall, only to leave empty handed. Stuffs that I fancied were all regular priced! Anyway, there were many free sampling going on! Tried the bread biscuits and omgg I love the garlic bread ones so obviously I needed to get some of those and heh, the bread biscuits are sitting on my desk now :) had dinner at roma's deli which serves vegetarian western food. It's not bad I'd sayy, the mushroom soup was yummmmy aand we had tom's palette for dessert!!! haha love tom's palette omgggg! oreo cheesecake and white forest icecream were so awesome which left me craving for more despite knowing how sinful ice cream is. HAHAHAA.

Poor quality pics, blame the lighting of the place. haah.
met baby on sunday again for a short whileeeeeee :) went to tangs to hunt for the wallet which I laid my eyes on but instead I got a nike sling for my brother as his belated bday present. I can't help but think that I'm such an awesome sister though I swiped my dad's card to pay for it. HAHAHAHA. And I finally tried the melon pan at provence but I still loveeeee the wassants to bits! Provence has such awesome breads that I'll never get sick of (at least that's for now :P). joined my family at some hokkien restaurant at amoy street for dinner. Thumbs up for the oyster omelette :D

I'm muching on my peanut butter bread now to satisfy my hunger pangs. so in love with peanut butter these days and it's not like as if I've better options cause apparently I'm home alone (again. my family disappears early in the morning and I wake up to an empty house fyi) and there's nothing decent for my lunchhhhh ): I've nothing to do today except for tuition in the noon. thought of making a trip down to AJ to collect my hideous looking A level cert but decided against it when I chanced upon the rest of gossip girl season 3 episodes. I can't get enough of chuck bass, he's smokin' hot :)

Anyway, I've accepted NIE. Don't know whether its a good thing or not, I just hope that I don't regret my decision. Still, I can't believe I'm going to become a teacher, prolly the worst one can ever find. hahahahahaa.

decision of a lifetime.

2010-05-26T14:06:00.004+08:00

just knocked off from work and I'm feeling so tired as usual. I never seem to get enough of sleep even though I sleep at least 9 hours a day. work's fine I guess and I got a pay rise! heh, so happy, my supervisors are nice people. HAHA. but I can't imagine if I've to do telemarketing for the rest of my life. It's so boring, mundane and you've to put up with unreasonable clients! I'll freak out for sure. Oh well but I guess there's pros and cons to every job, just gotta live with it. And my supervisors have been telling me to think thrice before I accept the NIE offer because once I sign the TTA, that's it for the next 8 years of my life. haha scary huh? but its not like as if I've better options! It's either this or SMU and I'd rather choose NIE over SMU SIS anytime and the reason is simply because, IT and I don't click...think I'll get myself drowned eventually lol. I don't want history to repeat itself, I've had enough of remedial lessons in AJ. Two years of being the cushion is more than sufficient, thanks. lol. but I can't believe that I'm going to become a teacher and belinda thinks its unbelievable too since I've always been the kind of student who always sit at the back of the class and simply cannot be bothered. lol. Anyhow, I still miss the fun and bochap days in IJ! ):

the past few days have been awesome :) took on the job as a facilitator (credits to marcia) and I brought secondary school kids on a trail around little india last friday and this monday! I'm so knowledgeable about little india now and what's more, the job pays really well and its fun though all of them were boys but thankfully, they're obedient enough to not find trouble for me heh :D

The SA boy who kept munching -.-!
met baby after the facil job on monday for lunch at cafe cartel. The last time I ate there was 3 years ago and I kind of miss the bread heh! caught shrek forever after at two and puss in boots became so frigginnnnn' fat and puss's sad kitty eyes are super cute! That's one cat I'm not afraid of! headed down to ion after the movie and had tako balls and gusttimo icecream to satisfy wal's cravings since tom's palette wasn't open when we went on sunday! ): Anyway, the vanilla cake icecream at gusttimo is a must try!:D

last friday was IJ fiestaaaaaa! :) The food were not bad on the whole, especially the waffle hotdog, mee goreng and the cheerios! saw a couple of familiar faces and belinda's belovedddddddd geog teacher! HAHAHA. TPY still recognises jiamin and I but she thought that we graduated from university already! We took a photo with the giant IJ bear before leaving but sadly, it's not for saleeeeeeee ):

met clique for dinner at thaiexpress last tuesday and i'd my favourite phat thai! but it's defintiely a rip off compared to the prices in thailand but whatever, I still enjoyed it.

booked my driving test already but I'm anything but confident. sigh, I'd better go for more revision lessons so that I'll stop striking & mounting the kerb during parking. Parking's such a nuisance, road driving is way more fun! HEHHEHE. I'm done with revising my all time favourite - Dragon Love! It's such a memorable series that I'll never forget. Though its been more than 10 years since I last watch dragonlove but I still love it as much or if not more! I still remember those days where my mom, bro and I would plop ourselves infront of the television and watch disc after disc!

alright, that's all for now. got to run for tuition soon, see ya'lllll!

you make me smile :)

2010-05-16T17:16:00.011+08:00

Just got back from hightea at mouth restaurant with my fam. satisfied my craving for the salty egg custard bun and the sesame banana prawn roll but sadly, they ran out of my favourite eggtarts time and again :( And this reminds me of the Macs cinnamon melts which were sold out islandwide AGAIN! wth. To think I happily went to macs with dear yesterday for my awesome melts, only to burst my own bubble. played the imbecile test on dear's itouch and we cleared it! hah, okay or rather, he cleared it. hehehe. he stocked up on his food supply for NS again ytd. The pig bought a box of 24 pandan london rolls plus cup noodles and silly spongecakes with strawberry filling so obviously, I'd to do him a favour with the london rolls right? I mean, 24 is too many for him, ought to care and share hehehe!

HEART pandan rolls!
checked out Parco Marina Bay on friday with wal since there weren't any nice movies to catch. It was another typical shopping mall but with nice jap restaurants, decor wise. walked around cityhall hunting for watchboxes. He finally got a pretty red watchbox for his mom and with the amex card, we are entitled to a complimentary pair of movie tics :)

planned to have astons for dinner but as usual, the queue was friggin' long. Singaporeans never seem to get sick of astons, no? We were obviously reluctant to queue so we settled for imperial treasure instead. had xiaolongbaos again (that's one thing I'll never get sick of) and tried the E-Fu noodles and Yangzhou fried rice. The portion for both were too big for 1 person lah seriously -_-!

didn't go for SMU tea session yesterday since I'd no company and I was simply too lazy to. figured out that I'll probably not be listening so yeah, its pointless. Anyway, I really applaud SMU for its efficiency when it comes to sending out acceptance letters! It took only 2 to 3 working days after my interview to have the acceptance letter delivered to my doorstep. was kinda surprised actually considering I screwed the estimation question during interview. Anyway I've been researching on SIS and NIE and read several horror stories. hahh, I doubt I suit SIS though the job prospects and pay are indeed very enticing. (According to belinda, I thrive on money. LOL) BUT I seriously can't imagine myself doing IT, I can already forsee myself wailing for help so I'm patiently waiting for my loveletter from NIE. I'm a tad bit worried although I felt that I fared better for the NIE interview than SMU's but you'll never know. That's probably what I think and not the interviewers. And I'm expecting a rejection letter from NUS soon lol.

I'm bored and baby's gonna book in later =( Probably gonna catch shrek the third on channel 5 later or smth to occupy myself before bedtime. gotta wake up early for driving tomorrow. Three more lessons to go before I can book for the test. hah, but I'm pretty confident that I'm going to fail the test LOL. can't wait for shopping on tuesday with clique, feel like getting myself more rompers. I'm kinda obsessed over rompers these days, heh. gonna see Marcia at the driving centre tmrw & Jiamin's joining me at telemarketing and and and there's IJ Fiesta on friday according to my tutee. awesome week ahead eh? :D

Affinity with the xiaolongbaos! :D

2010-05-09T16:28:00.009+08:00

I figured that I should blog to keep my mind off eating :) The bak kwa, durians, oreo biscuits and my favourite chocolate flavoured rolls are screaming my name already! I'm so tempted to shove more of those into my mouth ): trimmed my fringe and did treatment for my hair today after tuition, my thick fringe has been too annoying.

dear went off to the range which means no smses till at night! hmph. but oh wells, at least he managed to book out on friday night though it was real late. so, I met him for a short while yesterday after my ttn. decided to try imperial treasure for lunch for a change and there's the pan fried xiaolongbaos aka shengjian baos on the menu which I've been wanting to try since foreverrrr! the pan fried xiaolongbaos were YUMYUM but could've been juicier! And I realized that imperial treasure's xlb are cheaper than crystal jade's & dth's and they taste as delicious. love the egggtarts plenty and the roasted duck too. I wanna try the pan fried xlb at crystal jade since minghui says that shengjianbaos at crystal jade are nicer than their xlbs so its probably REAL YUMMY. shit, I sound like a total glutton now. lol.

walked around cityhall hunting for presents and I managed to get a pretty white shawl for my mommy :D hehe, happy mummy's day! I chanced upon the sea green version of the romper that I bought the other day and I totally regretted buying the blue one SIGHHHH ): joined my grandpa at boon tong kee (again) for dinner and my uncle ordered alot (as usual) so to conclude, yesterday was yet another day of sinful indulgence. FAT.

watched another promotional trailer for mysteries of love on k-tvb and I'm overwhelmed with excitement for the show!! Can't wait to see fungyi and besides, Kenneth and Bernice's storyline looks friggin interesting. so excited omggg! haha, can't imagine if I were living in hongkong, I would've gone blind by now since I'm most probably gonna watch every SINGLE show on the television!

screwed my smu interview on friday. I'm gonna cross my fingers and pray that next tuesday's gonna be a smooth one otherwise I wouldn't have a university to attend! ): kay, gonna make an effort to read the papers later, hopefully.

dark nights & bright lights

2010-05-04T13:56:00.012+08:00

I realized I have a habit of blogging after the weekend or either way, don't blog at all. That's how lazy I'm. had driving in the morning and practised vertical parking again which thankfully was, less disastrous than yesterday. I always have difficulty returning wheel in time, damn ): I can't imagine how terrible I'm gonna fare for parallel parking which would be the next lesson, lets hope I don't mount the kerb too many times haaaah :/ And I've the tendency to get the same few instructors which is actually a good thing since they're all very nice people with extremely high tolerance level for my clumsiness and dreaminess. And not to mention, two of them make good entertainers HAHHH! There was once where I was laughing so much till the car nearly crashed into the wall.

caught bounty hunter with dear on sunday and had quiznos :) Quiznos was awesome cause its so beefy and there's the big cookie & the yummy chicken noodle soup yay :) Anyway, bounty was good and Jennifer Aniston's so prettyyy hah! I wanna watch iron man next, anyoneeeee?

celebrated my bro's birthday on saturday at mouth restaurant, ah yes, hes a labour day baby! Mouth's dimsum are good as usual, it's better than crystal jade's and fortunate on the whole if you ask me. The delicate eggtarts and the salty egg custard bun were my favourites! :) sent him off to the airport after that for his ridiculous school trip to cambodia. aww, I kinda miss my brother already, the house's like so quiet without him! And he took my beloved hellopandas and wangzai mantous to cambodia ): so fat still eat. lol.

HAPPY SEVENTEENTH KID!

had tuition before meeting dear on friday. The piggy was hungry so we walked to tpy pasar malam for his favourite ramly burger though it was already dinner time.

THE YUM YUM BEEF BURGER!
train-ed down to cityhall and took forever (as usual) to decide on dinner. We finally settled for manhattan fish market. hehe, tried the grilled version for the platter for two which was just as good as the fried version. The garlic rice is ever so delicious! I mean, how bad can MFM possibly be?

checked out the helix bridge and marina bay sands after dinner! The pretty glittering lights on the helix bridge, made the night scenery more stunning than ever! marina bay sands was impressive, it's so classy and I wanna dine in the hotel soonnnnnn! :) Anyway, I'd a shock when I saw the number of people queuing for cabs! Never had I seen such long queues for taxis, not even at airports! Furthermore, there were many people withdrawing money at the atms and obviously, the casino's flooded with people. I seriously think that the casino is doing singapore no good in the long run. ahh whatever, none of my business anyway lol.

(I love this photo but stupid waldron says I look fat in it still. pffft.)

gave up watching safeguards cause the videos were so messed up. dear's confined for the weekend and my students' midyears are coming so I'm prolly gonna spend my weekend afternoons giving tuition, earning extra bucks yay! :D SMU's interview on friday and I haven't prepared anything yet or rather I don't even know what's there to prepare. lol. I'll see how it goes. I'm more keen on NIE still :) told ya, I've a hidden passion for teaching! HAAAH!

Alright, gotta have some chocolate cream and strawberry flavoured cream rolls later. I'm sucker for those, I can just have them for my three meals a day which is why I'm getting fatter though I make it an effort to skip lunch! I just caught the trailer for Mysteries of Love on k-tvb and I'm so looking forward to the latest fungyi serial, it's been so long since TOB! :D And I'mmmaaa so excited for shopping tomorrrow! till then!

Reckless Driving

2010-04-27T21:03:00.010+08:00

heh, finally a blogskin with banner rather than just words! Feel so accomplished now though its just a really simple banner hahaaa but you can't blame me, I'm too rusty with photoshop. I can't even remember the last time I did a layout from scratch.

went for driving today and I bumped into more familiar faces. felt rather sleepy so I drove dreamily. Wasn't really paying attention to the instructor, I think he got kinda exasperated with me. But thankfully he's nice otherwise he would've lectured me! & my favourite instructor was laughing at me when our car passed his -.-! I really wonder how on earth am I gonna pass driving at the rate I'm learning, I'm such a dangerous driver seriously. I'm not paying attention to the traffic on the road half the time and the other half of the time I'm driving recklessly as if I'm playing chocobo racing on playstation. lol! It reminds me so much of the good ole times that I would play chocobo, digimon, saiyuki etc on the ps with my beloved brotherrr! hahh, miss those times plenty, if only we could hit the rewind button. He's like so busy with JC now, poor thanggg! and I'm just glad that I can tell myself thank god its over!

haven't work for more than a week which explains why I'm feeling so lethargic about work tmrw. sigh, if only money will just drop from the sky to fund my shopping trips. Shopping's a bottomless pit! ): Speaking of which, I went shopping with jiamin & joyce last thursday. had dinner with jiamin at hk cafe before joyce joined us and we walked around 313. We introduced joyce to the awesome cinnamon buns and natural yeast bread! :)

slacked at wal's house the other day and we watched the korean version of Mr and Mrs Smith. It was not bad I guess though we only watched part of it. Wanted to watch sherlock holmes but the kid's so anal about the subtitles being wrong. lol. his maid bought lunch for us so saved us the trouble of moving our bums out of the house :D

started watching safeguards yesterday. Finally decided to give safeguards and elaine yiu a chance after so many years but the videos aren't exactly cooperating, they're taking gazillion years to load. Anyway, I'm on episode 5 currently and whenever I see the I-am-so-pitiful look so elaine yiu's face, I really feel like giving her a tight slap. Seriously, her acting suck so much back then, she's trying too hard to be pitiful and squeeze out some tears but obviously, she failed miserably at both.

received my letter for nie interview the other day. I'd better start preparing soon though its still quite far away but knowing myself, I'd probably never get down to it till like the day before! lol. Lets hope that I get nice interviewers and easy peasy questions! :)

I'm feeling tired though its not even 10 yet. think I'm gonna turn in soon. I never seem to get enough of sleep. It's gonna be a long day tmrw.

BLOCK LEAVE! :D

2010-04-19T17:27:00.016+08:00

Alas, I found time to blog! had so much fun last week and time really passes very quickly when your having fun. baby's block leave over so its back to telemarketing, driving and tuition again for me and its gonna be like that all the way till school starts which I'm not at all looking forward to. I can't imagine going back to school again, I do enjoy school life like everyone else but seriously, not the mugging part. I reckon A's scared the shit outta me and I'm still not hearing from any unis yettttt, I shall cross my fingers and hope that I get a call next week! :)

work was alright today, I still had company though most of them went back to school. wasn't as lucky as last thursday though. managed to get 14 appts last thursday, I'm so proud of myself! :D haha, lets hope I'm always so lucky yay. hehe. And have I mentioned that I've taken a liking for the natural yeast buns sold at 7-11! They're surprisingly addictive and hopefully having those healthy Jap buns for lunch gonna help me shed the unwanted calories that I gained last week ):

had a scrumptious seafood dinner with wal sometime last week. Haven't had black pepper crabs in a long time and you've no idea how much I love crabs!! The lobsters were yummmyyy and the ordinary looking tofus were EXTRAORDINARY!! Sigh, now I regretted not ordering more though we already ordered too much for 2 people=p

SATURDAY

met wal at dhoby before we went to giraffe at Istana Park to put zhanglu's birthday cake and waited for the rest to come. the food and ambience at giraffe were good :)

FRIDAY

cancelled work and went for driving in the morning instead. headed down to wal's house after driving and I visited faddy! Faddy looks as punch-able as ever hehhh and the stickers on wal's mirror are so cute lah!

Faddy says "Hi!"

SO CUTE RIGHT?!

Met minghui & clique at tunglok seafood afterwards, the food were okay , not fantastic but for the price, I couldn't expect more. We spent a grand total of 100 bucks on fruit juices, thinking that they were free flow :/

A hundred dollar rockmelon affair!

went to play pool after a filling lunch but knowing how bad I suck at pool, I spent the whole time talking to eileen and camwhoring. hahaaa :D

A result of having short limbs. HAHAA I'M SO MEAN.

I'm counting down to friday again. sigh, can't wait to see baby! hes so poor thing to get posted to such unit. damn, even I feel scared! watching My Queen now and Mr. Polar Bear is so hot! hehe, to think that I was still gushing over ethan in the earlier episodes. lol. If I were the female lead, I think I'll pick Mr. Polar Bear instead of ethan though they both make awesome eyecandy!

happy 19! :D

2010-04-08T21:29:00.017+08:00

I feel as fat as always and to worsen my depression, I'mmmaa so broke! ): sigh, I need to take up another tuition assignment soon! haven't heard from any uni yet but that's expected given my pathetic results. I'm not a least bit worried for some reason but probably gonna start to panic if I still don't hear from them soon. driving lessons are getting boring and tiring these days considering how early I have to wake up and the distance that I have to travel! I'm already starting to find toa payoh far, what's more the driving centre is all the way at admiraltyyyy! ): I really don't know how am I gonna get to school next year, I will probably never reach school HAAHHH. Anyway, I hope I get the hilarious instructor for tmrw's practical, he makes the lesson more interestingggg! :))

met minghui for brunch yesterday at causeway point after my driving practical lesson! haha, the glutton wanted to eat crystal jade dimsum for breakfast and soup restaurant for lunch! seeeee, trying to make me fatter and more broke! ): haha anyway crystal jade was filling enoughh, think we ordered too much for two people but who cares lolll. chee cheong fun was bad, the xiaolongbaos were the most awesome as usual! :DDD you knowww, I think I'm having an overdose of crystal jade food, I dine there at least once a week, it's becoming like swensens to me!

met up with the ij clique on tuesday night to celebrate marcia's birthday in advance and jolene's belated bday! :D had dinner at Aoba at ion, the ramen was pretty good :D the birthday cake that jiamin reccommended was yummyyyy especially the crust of the cake made of ferrero rocher which was so addictive! requested for plates but decided to just attack the cake together hahahaaa :)

Before...

After...

watched how to train your dragon with dear on good friday last week! It was an awesome movie and to think that I actually thought that it was another ridiculous kiddy show. This is why one should never belittle kiddy shows lol! had lamian at crystal jade for dinner since baby had sorethroat and guess whattt! We saw cinnamon melts at macs and were so excited hehe! It's like omggg, cinnamon melts finally made a comeback so obviously we had to eat it before its sold out islandwide again rightttttt! I learnt my lesson the last time round lol sooo we decided to have spicy shaker fries and cinnamon melts for dessert! YUM! baby wanted an apple pie too lol! The cinnamon melts are to die for, they're sooo (x 100000) heavenly (maybe a tad bit too sweet, prolly gonna get diabetes if you eat it everyday) and everyone whom I reccommended it to says its delicious except for my mom.

the to-die-for cinnamon melts!!

finished watching The Four yesterday. I know, I'm slow. The Four was pretty alright, wouldn't say its awesome but enjoyable enough to sustain the audience's interest especially since the cast consist of four handsome actors lol. Raymond Lam's acting is impeccable, it's been pretty long since I last watched his series and Kate Tsui & Selena Li look very pretty!

Baby's POP tmrww which means hes gonna get a week off from NS! heh :D 2 months of bmtc ended quickly enough but there's nothing much to rejoice over actually, it's just the beginning in fact. oh wells, I can't do anything about so just gonna enjoy next week firsttt! :D I am craving for Just Buns (AWESOME CINNAMON BUNS from 313!) and cinnamon melts righttt nowwww. Though macs is a mere 5 minute walk away but I'm simply too lazy to change out of my pyjamas at such a late hour and besides, its bad to eat before bedtime. I should go sleep and stop thinking of food.

goodnight worlddddd!

sinful indulgence

2010-03-29T18:45:00.010+08:00

just had a satisfying dinner :) Love my mom's cooking, I never seem to get tired of what she cooks, heh. but sadly, I don't inherit those genes of hers, I don't even know how to on the gas. HEH. Anyway, I feel so friggin' fat these days cause I've been a glutton for the past week ): sigh, feel so sinful for the higher calorie intake and the 45mins to an hour jogs daily don't seeeeem to help ): I'm so depressed at the thought of becoming heavier than a hippopotamus in no time! I need to practice self control, arghhh. If only I have high metabolism, I'll have eight meals a day, life's awesome woohoo :)

alrightttt, been wanting to blog but haven't been able to cause I've been busy and lazy to for some reason. heh. Anyway, met jiamin and audrey last thursdayyy! Hahhh, it's been so long since I last saw audrey! had buffet at hotpot culture, yummy but fattening. We ordered practically everything that's on the menu and everything that's fried with sambal. I love the fish, beeeeeeef and the crispy silken tofu! I ate till I felt like vomitting so I quickly stopped myself from continue eating though I wanted to. oh wells, once bitten, twice shy, wouldn't want history to repeat. Towards the end, we stood up to eat to digest the food and obviously, we were the only clowns standing hehehe!

baby came over to my house over the weekend and mommy gave the piggy a bigggggggg slice of ice creamcake. love the oreo cookies hehhh. had dinner at crystal jade (XIAOLONGBAOS!!!) at suntec and the piggy had banana crunch ice cream after that. PIGPIGPIG.

And I'm so happy that I don't have work tomorrow, yay! hehe. but still gotta wake up early for driving tomorrow. SIGH pfft. driving is fun but waking up as early as seven is no fun at all ): alright, that's all for now. till then! ~

shagged! ):

2010-03-23T15:47:00.013+08:00

I feel so shagged though its only tuesday! damn it ): life's been so hectic recently and the thought of tomorrow makes me feel even weaker! gotta wake up early tomorrow for driving again followed by three tuition lessons so it's gonna be yet another day of rushing from house to house. rahhh.

my very first practical driving lesson today was fun and my driving instructor's so hilarious! HAH, he was so damn entertaining that I kept laughing and couldn't concentrate on steering the wheel -.-! hahaaaa, anyway I hope to get him again for the following lessons! :D Hehe and guesss whatttt. I saw Kanmani! hehe so I'd company lol:))

the part-time telemarketing job's been pretty alright with nice colleagues and supervisors except for the fact that the four-hour of non-stop talking makes my voice turn hoarse! ): but I should be contented since it's quite a slack job afterall lolll.

went to 313 last sunday to redeem free durian waffles with my brochures! :) And guess what! There were people giving out coupons to redeem more freeeeee YUMMY foooddddd! HAHA. Seriously, I think wal and I ate like at least twenty bucks worth of free food. was hoping for free coupons to redeem justbuns but there weren't anyy ): love those cinnamon buns to bits.

maggie moo ice-cream + durian waffles + chicken wing + sweet plum friess from shilin + fresh fruit juice + soyabean ice blended + famous amos cookies + beef flyer
(okay thats all for now, can't seem to recall what else we ate. HAHAAAH.)

took the bubble photo at 313, love how the photo turns out yay! :D

gave B&J a miss today since I kind of forgotten about it after driving and am too lazy too crawl out of my house again and besides, I was extra hardworking today and ran for 1hr 15 mins, I don't wanna gain back the calories so quickly :( I'mmmaa watching the greatness of a hero now, loveeeeeeee the show & audrey's cracking me up, hahaha. shes so hilarious omggg, I think I'm dying from laughter. And I'm hungryy again, I really get hungry way too easily. can't wait till dinnerrrr, mommy's cooking tonight yayyy! :) & I'm looking forward to friday hehe, lets hope waldron gets to book out on friday this week and its mommy's birthday! :DDD

Officially ONE! :)

2010-03-14T22:15:00.008+08:00

It's been a busy busy week! took up a telemarketing job sometime this week, like finally! lol, it took me forever to get a 'real' job apart from tutoring. hahaaa but the reason why I took up this job offer is cause its just around the corner and I only have to work in the morning! Afternoons are reserved for tuition and evenings onwards are for myselfffff :)

went for NTU openhouse yesterday with jiamin and marcia! The NTU campus is nice but could've been better if the stairs are replaced by escalators and the corridors airconditioned. heh. went to the booths while marcia and jm went for the biz talk. joined them afterwards cause marcia texted me about the free buffet over there! HAHAHA. the food were not bad especially the siewmais! saw bala, steph and isabel too but bala didn't dare to eat lolll. headed to the booths after pigging out and we spotted people carrying bears on our way so we went to hunt for the bears instead. but the stupid guy didn't want to give us cause we didn't attend the talk :( pffffft. we attended the accountancy talk after going round the booths and obviously, we were busy talking throughout the whole talk! haha, I think talks rlly don't work for me especially not when marcia and jiamin are around. And plus, the NTU lecture theatre is so conducive for sleeping my goodness! had a second round of buffet after the acct talk! I think NTU biz is loaded lolll, love the charsiew pastry hahhh! :P

gave NUS open house a miss since its pretty useless to me lah cause I really don't have any courses in mind for NUS. In fact, I don't even feel like wasting my money applying though its just a mere 10 bucks that I'm talking about. managed to collect my free voucher at 313 though I initially thought its kinda impossible to be the first 2000 knowingggg how kiasu singaporeans are! met baby at ion and the bad kid forced me to carry the big fat bearbear around! so embarrassinggg but its so cuddley and niceee to huggg to sleeeeep heehhhee! :D:D:D

settled for lunch at greenhouse at 313! I love the seats, they're like swingsss in a garden, so pretty and fun to sit on! The main course and the desert were yummy too. I like the strong taste of the peach cake and their chocolate ice cream is surprisingly nice! dear says they made it themselves! hehe, happy first anniversaryy babyyy! (:

joined by fam for dinner at chinatown. the xiaolongbaos are so cheap and tasty there! okay, maybe its not exactly that cheap, its probably just cause I'm comparing it to crystal jade's xiaolongbaos haha! but then again, I reckon its very value for money since the xiaolongbaos taste almost as good as crystal jade's! :DDDD yummm.

been watching D.I.E B and the sequel's pretty good so far and at times, hilarious! alrightttts, I shall turn in soon, it's getting lateee and I still have to get up early tomorrrowww. sighhh, kind of dreading work though its kind of slack lah and I miss my baby already. stupid stupid NS pfffft. And I better start filling up the application form for uni admission, they look real long and I'm probably going to take thousand of years just to fill up one, let alone three. whatever, everything shall wait till tomorrow, goodnight world!:)

Choices

2010-03-07T22:27:00.009+08:00

My eyelids are heavy as lead, gonna turn in after I blog. had a busier weekend than usual thanks to the open house and its gonna be busier next week I guess with NTU and NUS openhouse coming up. but I guess I'm not particularly interested in NUS's since my grades kind of suck but I couldn't ask for more since I've been a v.v.v.v.v.v.v.v weak student all along. I meannn, I have never passed any exams (Midyrs, promos, prelims) in JC before. I reckon I made a bad choice in choosing JC over poly two years ago buttttt I ought to be contented with what I have! At least my greatest nightmare didn't happen, phew. I'm just so glad that I don't have to go through A's again and put the A's behind me. hahaaaa, A levels's nothing but PAIN, PAIN AND MORE PAIN. I'm more or less set on what I wanna do and hopefully I will make it there, shall make the best out of it (:

joined jiamin & marcia at SMU openhouse today after tuition! hehe, got my pay today so happy yay! :) went for the social sciences talk and we prolly talked more than the person who's conducting the talk. HAHA. We weren't even paying attentionnn lolll. And damn it lah, I think I talked too much just now! My throat kind of hurts ): we grabbed three balloons each before we left hehe, i love balloons :D had a late lunch at souperlicious, the corn and chicken chowder was yumyumm :D

tried fisherios yesterday and had pizzahut two days in a row. maybe that explains for my sore throat. The stupid pizzahut at suntec was sloww so we played crazy neighbour on itouch. I would've won if not for the stupid call from the agent ): Anyway my grilled fish at fisherios was fine but dear's beer battered fish had a strong beer taste that I didn't really fancy. And I love the just buns at 313, the cinnamon buns are like so heavenly! bought a new top yesterday HEHHH. Gonna go shopping with my mom tomorrrowwww, love retail therapy especially when its sponsored by my mommyyyy heheeeee :))))

Alright, that's all for now, folks. Looking forward to the next weekend hehe! Goodnight world :)

Panic Attack

2010-03-04T21:46:00.008+08:00

Results are driving me to the brink of insanity, it's killing my insides and i'm sinking into depression. I suspect I'm suffering from panic disorder, I'm becoming so paranoid as 5th March draws closer! When minghui mass sms the class yesterday, I thought that he wanted to collect class funds! And when he told me to call him, I thought that he wanted to tell me something about the A levels results and when he said no, I immediately jumped to conclusion that it's gonna be about SFSC! lol. I can't stand myself sometimes hahaa.

I'm so apprehensive of my future, it has never seem so bleak before! Life's been a bed of roses for me I guess, have never exactly gone through ups and downs and would not like to experience any anytime soon. It's prolly gonna be a tear jerking affair for me tomorrow (as much as I hope it isn't), better get the tissues ready, sigh. And I really hate collecting results for major examinations (PSLE, O Levels and tomorrow, the A Levels), it's friggin' scary each time and the long principal talks just had to make it worse. I really really really hope that I'll make it through this ordeal and qualify for a decent course in local university. Maybe I shall find something to do to take my mind off results and stop my imagination from running wild.

Oh man, I have a sudden urge to try the kfc portugese egg tarts and gobble up all the fat food in the world before I receive my verdict tomorrow noon.

calories!

2010-02-28T20:54:00.012+08:00

ahhh I'm feeeeeeeling so fat! I ate so much over the weekend, today in particular! I think all the running can't even offset the calories I've gained todayyy ): It's been a busy busy day! dragged myself reluctantly out of bed for a morning jog around my estate. The sun was blaring hot, wished I'd an umbrellaaaa with me. rushed home to bathe before I left for tuition and after which I met dear. checked out the mphosis sale but it was disappointing! chanced upon the URS Inc sales after lunch at jacks place which was yet another disappointmenttt since they ran out of sizes for those that I'd my eyes on :(walked around and dear got snacks for NS. pig lah what can I say haha :P joined my fam for dinner and mommy ordered yusheng on top of our usual zichar dishes. I'm so horrified at my weight! Anyway, I broke my personal record, I had a grand total of NINEEEEE laoyushengs this chinese new year! HAHA LOVE LAOYUSHENGS TO BITTTTS! :DDD

Oh and dear came over yesterday and when the lazy pig was trying to on the tv with the remote control, he couldn't cause chipchip was blocking the television signal. funny shit.

Chip's watching tv!
met jiamin, marcia and joyce on fridayyyyyy for our 'before execution' feast! heh :D decided on dinner at sakae and we had laoyusheng! Sakae has got nice laoyusheng except that the salmon slices were slightly too big for my liking. we talked so loud as usual lol, the whole sakae could probably hear us. walked around urban write after dinner and saw a fat cute chubby white toy with wings, its so nice to squeeze! HAH! Anyway, we encountered a freak on our way to taka! Hes really frigggggin scaryyy, shan't go into details, I don't wanna be reminded of him!

I'm watching the preview channel now and its airing beyond! caught an episode of stew of life on the preview channel just now, it seems not bad, maybe I shall give it a go since I am done with detective investigation files IV. loveeee the show for its intriguing cases and star studded cast but hate the ending! I would very much prefer to see a happily ever after!

Anyway it's rumoured that results will be released this friday. Well, it's more or less confirmed as much as I hate it to be true. The only good thing about that is I can see baby on friday! but sighhh that's all, I guess I shall cross my fingers and hope for the best. Wish me luck :D

CNY & VALENTINES WITH LOVE! ♥

2010-02-17T22:13:00.010+08:00

taught both of my students today and got red packets from both their parents lol :) gonna teach tuition tmrw again sighhh ): I feel lazy especially since she's not even keen to learn in the first place. All she does is blabbering nonsense to me, I figured that I'm getting paid for keeping her occupied. ah whatever, tutoring's good money :) shared a plate of laoyusheng with my mommy for lunch today! HAHAHAHA, I think we're impossible lol! bought a new top after lunch but damn, I need to stop spending and start earning bucks!

met baby yesterday afternoon and had gelare but sadly, the waffles weren't half price cause it was a public holiday! BOOO ): but anyway I love gelare's jamaican chocolate though andersen's banana crunch beats it hands down lol. went home after that and joined my fam for dinner over at my neighbour's house! love the cheesy gravy of the oven baked chicken that my neighbour cooked, yummy! It kind of reminded me of KFC original chicken lol. watched temptation of the wife for a bit before I left for waldron's house. followed his parents car and dropped him off at pasir ris ): arghh, I hate him to book in! )))))): NS's a boyfriend snatcher!

Seriously, CNY's doing me no good with all the fattening goodies. I ate so much over at my uncles' house. My aunt bakes really good pineapple tarts, the tarts literally melt in your mouth. It's like your doing yourself injustice if you don't eat them you knowwww, I mean, its once a year and its just a few pineapple tarts RIGHT?! yeah, I've been psychoing myself that till my cousin told me that two pineapple tarts is equivalent to one bowl of rice and my bro says it takes 10 minutes to burn off the calories of ONE pathetic pineapple tart. So, that pretty much explains why poor ole me has been torturing myself on the treadmill these days, trying my utmost to shed the calories. Sigh, I've always envied people with high metabolism.

Chinese New Year's pretty much the same each year. Reunion lunch was at my maternal side as usual followed by blackjack.

Day 1 started off with visiting my paternal grandmother followed by my maternal grandfather. I've always preferred my maternal side, I feel more at home over at my granddad's place and I'm closer to my cousins there too. met waldron at Novena afterwards and we checked out the timings for percy jackson at the cathay, gv at ps and marina but none were suitable. The cinemas and dining places were packed with couples! decided to walk around instead and we shared the delicious chocolate cake (more calories!) before we went down to clarke quay for dinner at Tomo Izakaya. Love the atmostphere but hate the service. The staffs were extremely inefficient, they took a good half an hour to get us the bill. like wth, just forget about the bill if your so unwilling to give us you know and the place's not even THAT crowded. Anyway, Tomo Izakaya supposedly serves authentic Japanese food but its not that fantastic in my opinion and a little pricey. Maybe, we didn't order the right dishes but whatever, don't think we're ever gonna patronise again given the terrible service. And seriously, I think it sucks that valentine's day coincides with CNY. Majority of the shops were closed and its so tough to find a place to eat without reservations and what's more, it took us AGES to finally hail a cab! That was annoying to the maxxxxxx. I hate to wait ): But anyway, thanks for everything dearr! :)) And don't scold me for the botak pic HAHA.

Spent the second day of CNY visiting my two uncles :) mommy drove me down to kovan after that and picked up wal along the way to my gramps house. hehe stayed for awhile before we left for dhoby, hoping to catch percy jackson again butttt the earlier tics were all sold out ): so annoying lahhh! headed down to cityhall for dinner. We were deciding between pepperlunch and pastamania but guesss what! Both were closed so we ended up at Astons instead and surprisingly, Astons seems to have improved, I would say its pretty okay now haha :) Dear was craving for ice cream so we had banana crunch at andersen's which wass so yummyyyyyyyy. haha, for your information, I've never tried andersen's, that was my first and I'm craving for more BANANA CRUNCH! HAHA :):):)

I'm watching Dicey Business now, love the showhand matches between the characters, they're so thrilling to watch! haha, that's one show I will never get tired of. Gonna finish off burning flames III tmrw provided that tudou's not gonna die on me like how it did today. Three more episodes to go for BF III and Keivn Cheng's as handsome as always! I'm craving for some keropoks now but I shan't give in to temptation. haha, mommy wanted to give wal the keropoks but he didn't want so too bad, they're mine heheee. Love keropoks especially the prawn ones yay! :) shall turn in soon since I need to wake up early for the theory trial tests tomorrow morning & I'm looking forward to saturday afternoon!!! Can't wait for baby to book out yay! :D

:) or :( ?

2010-02-07T15:08:00.005+08:00

I feel tired but accomplished! (: heh, made an effort to run 45 minutes today on my treadmill instead of the usual 20 minutes. Hope my perseverance gonna see me through this especially since CNY is approaching! I'm so looking forward to CNY cause its means dear gonna book out! yay! :DDDDDD hehe, I don't like NS, can't wait till he ORD man. yeah I know, he just got enlisted yesterday and here I'm talking about ORD. taught my tutee just now and we spent half the time talking about the teachers in ij! lol, I love my ij tutee lah :)

After a week of consideration, I decided to turn down the job offer. planned to take it up initially so that I would be able to kill time more easily when wal's in NS but I figured that I'll probably be killed by the job instead so I should just forget it. I'd rather bum around the house anytime. LOL. omggg, sometimes I really cannot stand myself, how can I be so lazyyy mann.

had breakfast with wal yesterday before he went off to the awful jetty :( had tarts from fancydelights and koped his pancakes, hehe. I haven't eaten macs in such a long time and lets just keep it that way though I love macs and speaking of which, I haven't eaten the twister fries yet! arghh.

spent the whole of this week with wal, it was a FUN but FAT week. lol. kaykay, I better exercise more to offset the calories!

had dinner at Manhattan Fish Market at The Central on monday! love the MFM at central cause it gives you a bird's eye view of clarke quay :D

We gave Gelare a miss on tuesday because we were full from the dim sum buffet at xing fu yum cha. The dim sum weren't fantastic but you couldn't expect more from the price.

Thursday was spent on cycling at Pasir Ris park! We contemplated to go to the bird park initally but concluded that it was kind of dumbbb. I mean, we might as well visit the zoo instead right. picked the double bike, haha i love it cause that would mean I don't have to cycle lolllll :D went to the airport after cycling (yes I know, again) and had dinner at crystal jade! :)))) we thought of joining mh and clique for zichar at tpy but figured that we're gonna be real late so yeah. Anyway crystal jade at T3 was awesome. hehe, love the noodles and the xiaolongbaos! The dessert that we ordered was delectable too but would have been better if there's more red bean filling inside!

went to wal's house on friday but the AV room was booked so we went to the spa instead. dipped our legs into the water for abit before we crossed over for lunch and he bought his stuffs for NS as well. And I realized that KFC sells portugese eggtarts too, I'm so gonna try them one day hehe! dear walked me to my gramps house after that and I had keropok (spelling?)! I love keropoks lah but my dad finished the two tins of keropoks at my house. PIG.

ughh, I feel like eating the espresso chocolate muffins/cupcakes that my bro baked yesterday! They're like so yummy but unfortunately, FATTENING. damn, siying you better control. lol. dad went johor for cny shopping lol, lets see what goodies he brings back! heh :) alrighttt, I'd better go bathe before I continue watching The Gentle Crackdown II. I reckon I'm having an overdose of Steven but ain't complaining about it. Afterall, I'm a fan of steven since primary school lol! Anyway, I just finished watching sweetness in the salt and I've got to say that Raymond Wong truly impressed me this time round. Steven Ma and Tavia Yeung are awesome as always :)

You're hired!

2010-01-30T17:01:00.009+08:00

I'm starvinggggggg though I just feasted on those lovely eggtarts at citysquare mall. skipped lunch and dinner yesterday and lunch again today since there's no food at home besides all the junk cny goodies. I think I've had too much of those till my throat kind of hurts this morning and let's hope my bro ain't gonna make us have swensens/pizza hut for dinner later. I wanna eat something plain and healthier, a bowl of fish soup will do the trick! (:

Anyway, it was my first visit to citysquare mall just now! Citysquare mall is pretty okay I supposed, would love it more if there's more food at the basement? haha! it's just like any other mall in singapore I guess. singapore is getting wayy too Boring with a capital B, there's nowhere to go! and back to talking about my adorable egg tarts from fancy delights, dear loves them too! I want a dozen of those though that would mean calories.

banana & double chocolate egg tart! :)
caught toothfairy and new york i love you with dear sometime this week! Dwayne Johnson is such a clown, tooth fairy was good while new york i love you was unbearably boring that it put me to sleep. And guess what? I fell asleep during orlando bloom's scenes and I was still asking waldron why hasn't orladno bloom make his appearance yet. dumb. had pepper lunch at suntec AGAIN! (But Im not complaining) neither of us ate beef this time. terriyaki salmon and sesame ice cream was yum yummmmmmmmm! I think all the ice cream's making me fatttt. we eat gelare and soyabean icecream on a regular basis! but sadly, NS gonna wreck my foodie activities. dear's enlistment date like real close, it's next saturday for heaven's sake. freak, i hate 6th feb mannnnnn. I'm gonna circle it on my calendar and it's going under the wall of shame. lol.

found myself a full day job but I'm still contemplating whether to take up the offer or not. There's no doubt that the job's stressful but the pay is so enticing that I can't bring myself to reject it even before giving it a try and plus I've a straight bus down to my workplace, it's so convenient. sighhh, I resent jobs with challenges, I like jobs that simply have to wait for time to pass and have no quotas to be met. wouldn't that be awesome? HAHAHA.

stayed home for almost the whole of yesterday except that I went out for awhile in between to teach tuition! I'm such a good girl, praise me people! HAH. I like the IJ girl whom I'm teaching, think she's so nice and hardworking, imma so proud of IJ yay :D I'm currently watching you're hired, a light hearted comedy! Dayo Wong is HILARIOUS, this show reminds me of to catch the uncatchable, I really like watching Dayo's shows! Charmaine's freaking funnyy too and there's michael tse and benz hui! they're all my favourites lolll :) I think I've watched the best of 2009 - rosy business, beyond the realm of conscience, born rich and you're hired! Born rich pales in comparison to rosy business and beyond the realm of conscience but they're all really good series that no tvb fans should give any a miss! kay, any series to reccommend? Gonna make full use of my last week of freedom before I start work next week. argh, I'm dreading work even before I start work and my episode 16 of you're hired just finished loading. wheeeee see ya'll!

tampopo!(:

2010-01-17T23:16:00.007+08:00

taught both my tutees today and I wrote two chinese essays for them! I'm so proud of myselfffff! It's been more than two years since I last wrote a chinese essay! yay! I'mma on episode 14 of Born Rich and am loving Joe & Anita! I think they look so good together and I just love the way Joe Ma walks! HAHHHHH. I finished Rosy Business not too long ago and all I can say is that, I'm really impressed with the scriptwriter, the director, the cast, the crew and whoever who contributed to the show! The script was well crafted and Sheren and Wayne were simply amazing! Plus, Ron improved heaps and I like san lailai!

had an awesome dinner just nowwww at mouth restaurant! I realized I eat there quite often but nevermind, I'm still not tired of the food plus the food we ordered just now were simply delectable! The butter soft shell crabs, scallion chicken, seafood crispy noodles, apple pork ribs, cripsy salted beancurd and my absolute favourite would be the lobster salad! The salad has my beloved honeydew and rockmelon, love it to bits HAHAAAAA.

celebrated shuhui's and joyce's bday yesterday, a belated celebration. haha, long overdue. my tutee cancelled on me and my basic theory trial test ended surprisingly earlyyy so I got wal to accompany me while waiting for jiamin. hehe, walked around orchard for quite a bit before meeting up with jm to get presents. settled on dinner at tampopo at last and the ramen was pretty good, love the egg especially. see, its all jiamin's fault, I'm negatively influenced. walked around orchard after that to digest our food before we sat down at macs for a bit and trained home together! hehe, I think we talk quite loudly in the train, the train seems so quiet when we stepped out. hahahahahaaa its always like that when we meet up but who cares :)

went jurong east swimming complex with dear on thursday but sadly no photos :( unless dear santa wanna get me a waterproof camera as my belated christmas present, not that I mind. hehee! It's my first time there, I mean, Jurong is so far! Anyway, it was funnnn, love the wave pool most! The lazy river and the blue slide was funfunfun toooooo! :DDDD celebrated aida's bday at figs and olive after that!

pasir ris park + a journey called life! :D

2010-01-08T23:01:00.012+08:00

I'm halfway through A journey called life but tudou and my dvds just had to let me down, it just won't load! I finally dug the AJCL discs out from my drawer after almost two years. haha, I can't believe I kept it for so long already. From the amount of dust accumulated on my AJCL discs, it simply shows how reluctant I was to give this series a shot despite the good reviews. I never liked linda chung's acting and I even find her irksome in some of her most likeable roles (e.g sheung joi sum in heart of greed). Honestly speaking, I wished her role was axed in HOG and moonlight reasonance as well. lol. Anyway, I'm glad that I decided to watch AJCL before starting on born rich or beyond the realm of conscience. Linda's a pleasant surprise in AJCL, she improved heaps. Okay, actually I don't know whether she improved or deproved (if that's even possible) since AJCL was filmed two years back. but whatever, linda chung and steven ma has got great onscreen chemistry and I enjoyed watching kent cheng as well! I still remember that I adored steven ma alot back then in primary school, he make such a great couple with ada choi! haha I shall go revise the older TVB shows sometime, the current ones can never be as good.

ANDDDD I just finished watching Gossip Girl season two & i'm 8 episodes through season three of gossip girl but sadly, my dvds stop there. Anyone knows where can I download the latest GG episode? lol. GG kind of annoyed me in season two, seriously, the producer's doing his utmost to promote recycling by recycling and rotating the character's other half. If you get what I mean. whatever, I'm rooting for chuck bass and blair waldorf! :DDD

haha kaykay, I shan't keep ranting about my tv shows, they're just fiction. went pasir ris park the other day and the weather was great! A little bit too hot maybe but there were plenty of shade so it was alright. had our mini picnic before we cycled or rather, he cycled. lol! sat on the breakwaters and went to the playground before we decided to have our dinner at the airport! We settled for Sakae Teppanyaki, we've been wanting to try that since sometime ago and we finally got to! It was interesting enough to watch the chef cook!

HAPPY NEW YEARRRR! :DDD

2010-01-01T19:57:00.010+08:00

It's the new year baby! :DDD 2009's over in the blink of an eye, not that there's much to rejoice over actually. It prolly means the release of A level results is pressing close as well as dear's enlistment dateeee. grahhhh I hate all these bullshittt :( but there's chinese new year to look forward to! I can't wait to laoyusheng! HAHA.

town was flooded with people yesterday. It's obviously expected since it's new year's eve! caught avatar at cathay with dear and surprisingly, it was full house considering it's not exactly a really new movie. Anyway, avatar was awesome though my first impression of it wasn't good, thought it's gonna be stupid with all the blue people ya know. lol. I wanna watch alvin & the chipmunks and sherlock holmes next!(: we planned to have dinner at ichiban after the movie but there was a snakelike queue so somehowww, we ended up at suntec's pepper lunch (as usual, hehee!) For a change, I didn't order beef at pepperlunch but the beefbowl aka waldron aw did. lol :D

walked around cityhall for a bit and played with dear's itouch before we headed down to the esplanade! :D We took the wrong route so initially we thought our view's gonnnaaa be bad bad bad but it turns out to be otherwise! The fireworks display was spectacular! Lucky us but the only downside was that we couldn't hear the countdown! oh wells nevermindddd, im there for the fireworks display anyway! :) cabbed home after that with dear cause my last bus was at 12 midnight.

just finished watching Emergency unit! Oh man, I really love the show and Michael Tse's role as Laughing Kor! He's truly an outstanding versatile actor, totally deserving of the best supporting male award at the recent TVB award ceremony!:)))))) I'm gonna start watching Gossip girl which I got from penang soon! been stuck on season two since forever!

came back from penang a few days ago and I'mmmaaa so glad to be back to civilization! haha, my brother walked so fast when we reached Changi airport lol! There was nothing much to buy nor see at penang. We spent most of our time at prangin mall and komtar and of course, at the hotel. My bro & I were blabbering nonsense at the hotel, waiting for time to pass before we finally forced ourselves to bed as early as eleven when the ds and itouch died on us. lol. visited temples, coffee and chocolate boutiques and the more famous foodplaces. Food was alright lah I guess but I can't imagine eating hawker food everyday, they're like so oily, I'm gonna grow fatttter! :(((

ate at Bayview's hotel revolving restaurant on the second night! they offer a really nice ambience at night and a sumptuous buffet spread, with the pasta, creamy soup, baguette and the dessert being the best! Plus it's kinda cool that the restaurant's indeed revolving (like what the name of the restaurant suggests) when we're dining but my mom claims that it gives her a headache lol.

ate till i vomitted. blame it on the meat loaf and my dad. I took so much cause my dad wanna try. It's pretty nice but my dad thinks otherwise so I finished the meat loaf by myself and that explains why i vomitted. gahhhh :/ I can't empahsize how much I like their pasta haha but it's really nicee and their dessert includes many many cakes, puddings, apple crumbles, tarts and ice cream. lost my appetite the next day after vomitting and I felt so bloated throughout the day. It pays to be greedy.

alrightttts, happy new year everyone & may all have a greattttt year ahead! :D

merry merry christmas!

2009-12-24T23:11:00.015+08:00

It's gonna be christmas in less than an hour's time! Wouldn't it be perfect if it's snowing outside right now and we could go out for a snowball fight heh :D I've got an extremely longgggg wishlist for christmas, let's hope dear santa could fufill my wishes and presents will drop down from my non-existent chimney! HAHA, I shall keep on dreaming! had dinner at Zhou's kitchen just now, I love the dessert bestttt, the mango soft rolls were aweeeesome! :D

I'm done with my absolute boyfriend plus the special episode this morning. I reckon my absolute boyfriend aka zettai kareshi has the most meaningful and interesting special compared to other jap shows such as hana yori dango and hana kimi anddddddd I'm glad that the ending turned out like what I wanted. I prefer Soshi with Riiko over Night anytime since a robot and human relationship is obviously impossible thoughhhhh I've gotta admit that Night's probably any girl's ideal lover, he's unbelievably nice and selfless! Anyway, did I mention that Mizushima Hiro bears a resemblance to Matsumoto Jun! They really look damn alike or are my eyes playing tricks on me. lol. started watching EU just nowwww and it's getting interesting already! I can't wait HAHAAAA. I'm truly a tv bugggggggg!

It's almost a week since dear gone to vietnam :((( sighhh, who the heck go to vietnam for holiday for so long anywayyy. went job hunting on monday with marcia & jiamin, had lunch at soupspoon and we spent most of the time talking nonsense instead of really looking for a job heh but it was fun! I think we're a tad bit too talkative for our own good but who cares. hehe. I misss IJ plenty! tuesday night was spent at isabel's house! we had a class christmas party and the turn out was slightly better than last year!

Jiamin & marcia came over to my house on wed to bake! HAHA. okay, met up at tp to get the baking ingredients before coming over to my house. slacked in my room and they played with my babies namely chip and dale and my lil bears while we waited for my mommy to cook lunch. My bro's friends came over so my house was a little crowded. I love mommy's cooking, hehe, its been awhile since I ate her cooking seriouslyyy. been eating out so often.

we baked cookies after lunch and Jiamin & marcia were so bent on making cookies of various shapes for e.g x'mas tree, snowman, cow, cat, flower, butterfly which we had difficulty distinguishing after taking them out from the oven HAHAHA!

played ps for abit before we headed to town! :D town was overcrowded since it was christmas eve's eve hah! tried on pullovers at FOX before we saw awesome pullovers at the shop beside havaianas at ion and soooooooo my wishlist this christmas became longer! *HINT HINT* hehe, we saw cute winnie the poohs at taka too, the winnie the poohs were like asking me to bring them homeee!

kaykayyy, the pictures shall do the rest of the talking on my behalf! merry christmas everyoneeeeeeeeee! :D Have a blessed christmas! :D

Alrightttt, that's all for now! I shall start packing my luggage tmrw! off for a short trip to penang on sunday! I'm kind of dreading it since my flight's so freaking early. gottta reach the airport at like 6 something which means I've got to drag myself out of bed at prolly 6 latest, by hook or crook. damnnn it, I don't even wake up that early for school!

goodnight world!

PROM! :D

2009-12-12T22:21:00.019+08:00

I just finished watching 54 episodes of family's honor, like finally. I took like forever but it's really nice though, all the couples were so cute haha! :D yours truly caught a flu and is having a sorethroat probably due to late nights or rather, waldron must've spread it to me! hehe.

Prom on wednesday at Meritus Mandarin was boring with a capital B. The food were terrible with the exception for the cold dish that was well, edible. The door gift and lucky draws were downright pathetic compared to IJ's. The activities were non existent since we could hear no shit as our table was the furthest from the stage and plus the speakers suck so yeah. Anyway, camwhoring made everything better! HAHA :D I mean, that's what prom's all about :D Oh and mh managed to grow 9/10 cm taller thanks to his stunts hahahaa but I'm still taller than him!!! haha, I'm so happyyyy lol!

All hail the quadruplets!

went to clarke quay after prom with like half the class. walked so much on my heels which were spoilt (fyi, I only realized that like less than an hour before prom) that it nearly killed my legs. went to some club and left awhile later witht he two gluttons to have pizza before we joined the class again. xiuhan got abit drunk I guess. sat at some place by the river at 3am in early morning and blabbering nonsense. hahaa my amazing class :D Seriouslyyyy, jc life would've been bad bad bad if not for 0108 (:

my work-less-play-more pw group!

my fantabulous cliqueeeeee! (:

last but not least, my awesome classs!!! :D

& this concludes the end of my jc life ♥

Ritz Carlton! :DDDD

2009-11-27T21:16:00.026+08:00

oh boy, I feeel tired and fat. Just ate the cookies and cream logcake my mommy bought, so delectable heh :D And damn, I shouldn't have ran yesterday, I'm aching all over :( I can't even remember the last time I ran, I've been a couch potato for too long but that's not my fault, blame it on the A levels lol.

celebrated my bday with dear yesterday! was choosing between Shangri la and Ritz Carlton and we finally decided on Ritz Carlton buffet. I hate to make decisions and he just have to force me to decide. Anyway, Ritz carlton buffet was yummmmmmyyy! Speaking of which, I'm craving for the beef in redwine sauce & baked fish now! Should've ate more ytd heh :D

♥
explored ritz carlton after the buffet and dear went to play the piano lol. walked around the flyer to offset some calories before we headed down to Marina square. checked out the prom stuffs since we were there and nothing caught my eye, how disappointing :( Oh, and did i mention how disappointing the movies in the theatres are right now, there's seriously nothing worth watching, the movies seem (and probably) are boring.

went down to sentosa afterwards and oh my, it changed so much since the last time I went there and it was packed with people probably cause of songs of the sea. walked along the beach and the sea breeze felt so good :)

I've been slacking too much these days till I forgot that I still have a paper on monday! my goodness, I can't believe myself! finally sat down and practiced mcqs today but unfortunately, I did them at turtle speed, I took approximately 6 hours for 60 mcqs. I'm impossible. lol.

Alright, my fingers are tired, bye! :DDD

almost there!

2009-11-25T22:46:00.003+08:00

liberation day's around the corner, we're almost there baby! :DDD I can't believe that we're almost done with A's which would mean 8 months of slacking, it seems so unreal seriously. hehe, I'd better treasure this newfound freedom of mine before its time to hit the books again. Anyway, I think I'm kinda screwed for A's sighhhhhhhh and all I can do now is to pray. Oh wells let's hope I survive this ordeal.

went to town yesterday after physics paper three which I probably did badly thanks to question seven which many thought was easy. I guess I'm really not cut out for physics, or lets just put it this way I'm just not cut out for studying. Hopefully this will be the last time I'm ever touching physics and econs.

Anyway, we had lunch at...shucks, I forgot the name, oh wells, signs of becoming senile. lol Anyway the food there was not bad. caught 2012 after that which was pretty good in my opinion but I can't imagine what if the world's really coming to an end in 2012.

Oh and I can finally clear and pack the mountainous piles of worksheets, lecture notes and practice papers that have been on my desk ever since god knows when! I find satisfaction in throwing all those academic related stuffs into the bin HAHAAHAHA. omggg, I think A's almost drove me to the brink of insanity, I never had such a strong dislike for studying.

dear's birthday! :DDD

2009-10-05T23:33:00.017+08:00

I feeeeeeeeeel tired though I just woke up not too long ago and I'm sneezing insanely now with my used tissues piling up beside me. Arghh, I hate to fall sick :( School's getting irritating these days with mock papers and mock papers and more mock papers. Seriously, making us stay back for mock papers beat the purpose of giving us a trancated time table. I really don't understand AJ and I doubt I ever will.

celebrated dear's bday on sat. caught surrogates at grand cathay, it was quite nice heh and I'm glad that the surrogates were destroyed in the end. I mean, I can't imagine living in a city where everyone you see on the streets are robots. It's insane, really. we saw the SA couple again afterwards when we went to look for a knife to cut the apple strudel lol. hehe, my eyes are sharp :PP

walked around bugis afterwards before we had dinner at Ristorante:D hehe omgg I love the place and the food especially the desserts and the pizza and the main course :D HAHA okay, that's practically everything. I think we ordered too much for two people, felt so full after dinner. Actually I wanted to order moooreeee but nevermind, there's always a next time. hehe, can't wait to try the pizza de menzo and choclate fondant gelato the next time! HAHA.

Foccacia bread

Linguine Marinara & the steak

smoked salmon pizza - this is so unique & the sauce b/w the salmon & the crust is delicious manm yumm :D

The heavenly tiramisu :DDDDD

Seriously, you've got to try this caramel, it's so goood :)

Happy 18th :D
went to play lanterns and candles after dinner to offset some calories hahahaaaaa :D

PRELIMS ARE OVER YAYYY! :D

2009-09-23T09:57:00.007+08:00

Alas, prelims are over yay! :D hehe but the downside is, A's are almost at my doorstep:( lol nevermind who cares, we shall talk about that later. screwed all my papers as usual, perhaps even more badly this time round. I seriously think that I'm gonna get straight Us for EVERYTHING. like seriously. lol. Even though somewhere deep down I'm still harbouring a tiny weeny hope that it wouldn't be so bad, like maybe at least pass something? haha fat hope. Let's hope A's will be better and I better get down to serious studying soon instead of praying and hoping for a miracle each day :/

Yesterday (which was also the last day of prelims) had the worst papers I reckon, I really felt like giving up since I really don't know what the hell I was writing. Maths paper 2 was bad and each subsequent paper just got worse...ah whatever. damn, screw you prelims! lol.

Anyway, went out after prelims yesterday! haha yay, like finally able to get some fresh air after smelling the stale air in AJ for days! :P hehe. caught time travellers wife, below my expectations but the movie was alright on the whole and Rachel Mcadams is pretty :DDD

took a bus down to thomson after movie to try the peranakan cuisine Isabel reccommended then we went to Ice cube for dessert! hehe and I love the crepe my goddd, haven't eaten ice cream with crepes since the last time I went to shokudo lol :D I love crepeeees, haha this reminds me of the pork floss crepe at shilin which I love very much too :D

alright, that's all for now :D

studying :(

2009-09-06T23:32:00.013+08:00

Life pretty much revolves around studying these days which pretty much explains for the fluctuations in my mood. I hope to pass prelims even though I don't have the slightest idea how am I gonna be able to do that considering the pathetic amount I've studied and the amount of time I'm left with which is no longer than a week. The week ahead gonna be packed with tuitions, damn ):

Screwed GP paper pretty badly last thursday, well, let's just hope that I can manage a pass, somehow. went to town for lunch after GP and finally settled for lunch at Central Thai at orchard central :) went home after mugging for awhile.

caught the proposal and went to chomp chomp for dinner last friday (I think?) hehe before we went down to clarke quay. hehe I love haagen dazs ice cream, the midnight cookies & cream was blew me off my feet. It was soooo heavenly my goodnesss.

and lastly, the very much overdue pictures from steph's birthday! :)

Alright, goodnight world. till then~

Hibiki! :D

2009-08-10T22:48:00.022+08:00

four days of holiday flew by and yours truly barely did anything. An unproductive weekend I would say but that's no surprise since it's me I'm talking about. went to town with dear yesterday and had ala carte buffet lunch at hibiki near the sg flyer! hehe. We had the whole place to us since it was empty because they sealed the roads near flyer area thanks to national day lol. The food was not bad, I reckon the unagi sushi, prawn teppanyaki & tempura are the best. Oh the salmon teppanyaki is nice too hehe and I like the japanese tea! watched GI Joe at Cathay after lunch :DDD The movie was great, I love Channing Tatum HAHAHA :D

Anyway, National day celebrations last friday was pathetic. There were barely any performances, not that I actually mind if school ended early but it was the longest national day celebrations I've ever had in my 18 years on planet earth thanks to our unbelieveably hardworking teachers. School ended at like what... two? my god, that was nuts. went to united square for lunch after school and bala & terence went to get a kite before we headed down to Marina Barrage (: I shall let the pictures do the talking :D

tired!

2009-08-02T22:23:00.007+08:00

My eyelids are as heavy as lead :/ I don't feel like doing maths, ughh. I don't seem to finish my work and I don't know why. It seems like there's no end to studying :( I'm so not looking forward to next week except for the the national day celebrations on friday maybe?

watched harry potter last week and public enemies this week. heh, I love Johnny Depp :D Both movies were okay I guess, at least to me. went to town with waldron on friday and finally tried the tako yaki balls at ion hehe! :D:D:D

Actually ion isn't that great, the shops are kinda disorganized and reptitive. My favourite part had to be the basement. I love the modern peking duck! so yummy lol :)) aww shucks, I'm making myself feel hungry and I've a sudden craving for shaker fries & cheese fries. It sucks that macs and kfc are just less than a 5 minute walk away but I can't go get them now, it's too sinful to be eating them in the middle of the night:( Anyway, settled for dinner at Quiznos Sub at orchard central. Its nicer than subway and the cookies are BIGGGGGERRRR HEHEHEHEHE! :DDD

I Abhor schooooooool!

2009-07-18T23:41:00.029+08:00

Ughh. I really can’t stand complex numbers, I never seem to get the hang of it. Maths is seriously a pain, I wanna drop maths :( Life has never been so miserable and each day is simply going to get worse thanks to the intensive JC2 Revision Schedule which leaves us with no time to study. I really don’t get why the school is doing this. I mean, timed practices aren’t going to help you improve if you don’t study. Obviously I’m able to complete the paper on time when I can barely do half the paper right? Brainless piece of shit. SCHOOOOOOL SUCK I WANNAAA QUIT SCHOOL :((((((( I think I’m such a screw up. Why did I even get myself into this shit in the first place, I shouldn’t have gone JC, I’m totally out of place. God save meeeeeeee.

Academic stuffs aside, I’m absolutely grossed out by those. Went to visit zhanglu today and she seems to have recovered already and hopefully she did (: And did I mention how disappointed I was with Bala’s fruit basket? TSK TSK. We headed to the macs nearby to get cinnamon melts but it was all sold out :( I managed to get it from TP macs anyway hehe and it’s so yummmmyyy but sinful BUT WHO CARES :P I mean, school sucks so much, I need to pamper myself lol :)

Yesterday was such a long day. Received my result slip and it’s disastrous. Failed like almost everything and I’m down for PTM. How great life could get. Anyway, went to town after school and finally settled for dinner at mr sushi with wal:) heh, the food was not bad, I love fish lol. went down to Shaw towers after that for ice cream at Tom Palette’s. The service’s and icecream’s really good, especially oreo cheesecake & granny’s favourite :)

♥

& lastly, the long overdue pics of Isabel’s hardrockin’ 18 at hardrock cafe :D

Goodnight world :)

Jiamin's birthday! :DDD

2009-07-10T21:58:00.017+08:00

boooo! (: just came home from Jiamin's birthday celebration and I'm bushed. felt so tired this morning thanks to the flu which I caught from god knows where/who. Anyway, feel so much better now after shopping. hehe :DD

went shopping at cityhall with liting after school. Come to think of it, it's been so long since we both last went out together. We planned to go to the washroom first but we ended up at the accessorize sale and we never got to the washroom. lol. decided to get something from breadtalk first before we resume shopping. Seriously, shopping makes people forget about eating which is good in a way since height and weight's on monday. damn, i don't wanna join bala & mh in the big walk :((( Anyways, Jiamin, Marcia, Shuhui & Joyce joined us in a while and we hunted around for Jiamin's present before that glutton decided that she wants food from marks and spencer for her birthday -.-! lol. And omggggg, we were talking so loudly like as if we were at home lol.

walked around the place and we finally settled at Aerins for dinner since Shokudo and this other place was full. Bel, Rachel & Jolene came shortly after and our clique was full strength today lol so happy hehe :D The food was alright, not fantastic though, think we're paying for the ambience more than the food but whatever, ultimately it's the company that matters :)

look at the glutton! HEHEHE

Think I should get down to serious studying soon after slacking for a good one week. got back physics and chem papers today and surprisingly I managed to scrape a pass for physics after rounding up my marks. well, miracles do happen don't they? But I feel as though history is repeating itself, I managed a pass for physics for midyears last year too cause they rounded up my marks. Ahh whatever, I'm glad that I passed something. At least I don't feel that bad spending money. I think I'm full of shit lol. Anyway, caught two movies this week - Ghosts of girlfriends past and transformers! :D Both movies were great but the second instalment of transformers pales in comparison with the first. oh wells. I can't wait to catch the proposal & harry potter!

gee and guess what? I bumped into Kenneth again on monday. I always see him when I'm with waldron. walked around the airport before we went back to town again for dinner at pepper lunch. I love the sukiyaki beef thing hehe. haha, I think we're always doing dumb things but who cares lol.

thank god its over.

2009-07-04T01:26:00.004+08:00

Midyears are over alas. Not that there's anything worth rejoicing over considering how badly I've done especially for physics. Physics is totally beyond redemption, even worse than maths which I did not study for and obviously am going to fail. This just shows how horrendous my physics is. screw midyears, to hell they go. whatever, I'm just glad that midyears had concluded, seriously, I could've died of exhaustion if midyears were to last for another week. The consecutive mugging (sadly, to make up for my inconsistency) left me so drained and my head never fails to be a pendulum bob every night. I really don't know how am I gonna surive A's...

had dinner at magic wok with isa, steph, wal, bala & terence after that and walked around cityhall before isa and steph left and we hung around coffee bean at J8 before wal followed me home. alright. I'm tired, goodnight world.

MIDYEAR PANDEMIC!

2009-06-21T00:54:00.004+08:00

Haven’t been online for a week, I totally miss going online. The midyear pandemic is here and it’s taking a toll on my health – both mental and physical. Considering the amount of revision I’ve done which is probably less than one quarter of what is required of me, I’m totally doomed for midyears with a capital D. There’s only one pathetic week left before midyears. Damnnnn :( I can only pin my hopes on H1N1 right now, I really need an extension of holidays please, even a week is fine. God, please save me!! I know, I should be mugging now rather than ranting, it will probably earn me a few more marks but arghh, I can’t help it, I need an avenue to vent my frustrations. I’m terribly annoyed by midyears, they’re so frustratingggggg. Seriously, I reckon I shouldn’t have even gone to JC in the first place given my level of intelligence and diligence. I’m always asking for it. lol.

Anywayyyy, 8 days of crashcourse ended and it was quite painless this time round compared to last year. The classroom was bigger on level 4 (last year I endured 8 days in the level 5 classroom) thus more conducive for claustrophobic people like me and the aircon wasn’t that cold this time round for some reason. Perhaps it needs some servicing. Haha whatever, I like it better this way.

Had lunch at Astons for the very first time on Thursday. It’s not that fascinating, just nomal maybe that’s cause I didn’t order the beef? Hmm. I prefer Botak Jones :)

ASTONS VS. BOTAK JONES. lol.

some over due photos? haha.

:DDDD

2009-06-12T00:10:00.019+08:00

today was pretty unproductive? :/ haha who cares, I shall mug doubly hard tmrw luh huh. I'm living in self denial. again lol. Anyways, physics crashcourse was alright today, serves as a good refresher course for the J1 topics (: had lunch with wal at manhattan fish market after tuition like finally! I've been wanting to try it. The fries were mediocre but the seafood platter was yummy on the whole. The garlic butter rice tastes familiar but I couldn't quite pinpoint it.

♥
We wanted to catch night at the museum at vivo but we only had the first two rows to choose from which was as good as not choosing :( So, had to decide like between terminator or drag me to hell and stupid me picked drag me to hell. I don't care! It's all awjunjie's fault for forcing me to make a decision :(((( That was the worst decision I've made, I swear, totally asking for it man. 5 minutes into the movie and I was almost dead. I was busy covering my eyes and my ears and grabbing onto waldron aw for my dear life for the next 40 minutes before he decided that we should leave. It was so horrifying seriously and this is the first time I ever left a movie halfway and I'm glad we did otherwise who knows, I probably would've cried.

walked around vivo for awhile before we we to hortpark (:

pretty pretty flowers, heh :)

finally got the ball in after much hardwork :/

IJ FIESTA & BOYS OVER FLOWERS! :D

2009-05-23T23:49:00.017+08:00

OMGGGG. I LOVE BOYS OVER FLOWERS! :D I totally can't wait for the next episode seriously and I'm so gonna get the dvd sometime this week - hopefully. And I've decided that Goo Joon Pyo is cuter than Yoon Ji Hoo - that is for the time being. haha, god knows when I'll change my mind.

Anyway, met up with clique yesterday for IJ fiesta! (: The first thing we did when we reached IJ was to go to our favourite washroom! HAHA. I miss the mirror and benches in the toilet we used to sit on during our gossip sessions before morning assembly lol. Explored abit around the school and headed to the general office, hoping to purchase the IJ teddy but the IJ badge on the teddies were missing so the staff told us to come back another time. sighh :(

There weren't many stalls left at the fiesta when we went back since it was pretty late already but there were still plenty of food and I finally got to eat otah! haha, been craving for it since god knows when. There were still many people in school and saw many familiar faces. The whole place was so noisy can and we had to strain our voices so that we could be heard. HAHA. The whole palce was so vibrant and lively, something that AJ lacks. went to the second level and we took a photo with father barre and played around with the funny windows outside the hall before we went to sit on the swinggggggg!:) I miss IJ luh, those good old days!

had dinner with clique at pastamania before we parted. walked around cityhall afterwards. I think walked too much or something, my legs felt so tired. Anyway I'd soya bean lol :DDDDD hehehe.

alrightttttt. I shall do a quick and brief recap over the past two weeks? hah, that is if I still remember. The chances are obviously low given my goldfish memory.

had gelare after school with steph & wal! I love those yummy waffles man and I'm craving for some nowwwww. Tuesday, please come soon lol! Ate at graffiti cafe after we had our waffles with ice cream and we sat there for like 4 hours or so talking rubbish, acting like as if we've all the time in the world as usual. lol.

Sakae! ♥

Labour day! :D

2009-05-03T00:10:00.014+08:00

I’ve been eating excessively these days and my dieting plans never seem to work. Lol. My input is way greater than my output. I just gobbled down a subway cookie and a slice of the sinful ice cream cake. Haagen Dazs cakes aren’t that great after all, at least not the cappuccino truffle. I would prefer swensens cookies and cream ice cream cake over this anytime. But I remembered eating some alcohol cake back then from Haagen Dazs which is simply heavenly ehhh. I want to eat that again, pretty please with a cherry on top? :D

Labour day was slack to the max, I didn’t touch my homework at all. Okay maybe I did – physically. lol. But it’s not my fault, I mean c’mon, it’s labour day, it’s meant for hardworking people like me to rest. HEHE. Anyways, I initially planned to practice maths yesterday morning but my brother just had to foil my plans. He finally dug out the PS 2 from the storeroom and we ended up playing when we both were supposed to be studying. Aye whatever lol :) It’s been so long since I last played PS2 with him, those were the days mannn. Dad made a last minute decision to celebrate my brother’s bday at some dim sum restaurant but it was fully booked or smth whatever so we settled for another restaurant instead. I love the pork ribs in Vienna apple sauce and the beancurd were so damn nice ehhh :) Went to get my brother’s bday cake from Haagen-Dazs after lunch and shopped around and I bought a new top :) haha damn, I’m always acting like as if A’s are ten thousand years away and I’ve got like all the time in the world. lol.

I rushed down to town after that thinking that I was late but I wasn’t, I’m so proud of myself :P walked around for abit and got to drink vanilla iced tea :DD It looks normal but the taste is kinda special and addictive. I feel like drinking mooooore! Anyway we finally settled for dinner at hotpot culture after combing all the possible dining places (:

Vanilla Iced Tea <3
Sports carnival on Thursday was a pain and I simply slacked throughout. Should’ve just ponn-ed, seriously. It’s a total waste of time, they’re trying too hard to make it fun and it kind of suck that they locked the school gate and we’re not allowed to leave the school even when we told them that we would leave our ez link cards with the security guards or smth. Damn, they’re treating us like POWs. Had dinner at amk central after sports day and caught Taken afterwards thanks to wal’s free movie tics. Taken was good :) I’ve been wanting to watch taken and 17 again and now there are two more adding on to my list – ghost of girlfriends past (smth like that) & the proposal.

Alright, I can’t wait for next week to pass, especially Monday and Tuesday where there’s chem spa and maths lecture test respectively. I’m so dead man and my tutorials are piling up. God, save me. Oh and have I mentioned my new hobby? which is none other than punching the AJ bear while I'm doing my work heh. It helps me to stay awake :)

update alas!

2009-04-26T00:15:00.016+08:00

Seriously, the weather’s been really unbearable these days and at times like this, I’m extremely grateful towards whoever who invented the air-conditioner. Barely studied today, I only did poisson and the rubbish remedial worksheet on organic chem which is nothing but a pain in the ass. The organic chem wskt is so effing difficult for goodness’s sake and it left me so frustrated plus the weather just had to make my life even more miserable. So, I conveniently switched on the aircon and took a nap. hehe.

I’m damn in love with soya bean products these days for no rhyme nor reason. I drink soya bean like everyday and I kept patronising Mr Bean lol. I really love the ice cream man, it’s so addictive haha. And the other day was nuts lah, haha, had like whattttt....soya bean, soya bean ice cream & beancurd for dinner? Hahaha I love it lol. But the Mr bean at toa payoh hub and jolly bean are such letdown, they don’t even have cold beancurd! :((((

Alright, lemme do a recap for the past two weeks though I don’t really know where I should start ranting from. Hmmm...

210409
Ben & Jerry’s free cone day ! :DDDD went down to united square after school for our free cone :D took like an hour or so, much longer compared to last year but it’s alright lah since time passes pretty quickly when i’m in a circus lol :P Anyway, after much consideration, I chose chocolate fudge brownie over chocolate macadamia and I’m gladdd :) haha wise people make wise choices :P chocolate fudge brownie was so yummmmmmmmyyy pleaseee and I want mooooore la! Anyway, took pics at the same mirror (okay, not exactly a mirror but whatever) which we took pics at last year on B&J’s free cone day.

170409
Steph & I finally satisfied our craving for Sakae after many hurdles haha. Have been craving for it since the day of release of pw results. It was kind of a last minute decision to eat at sakae and it turned out that quite a few followed us lol :) the service at sakae at ps was kinda bad though, the staffs were like pretty nasty for whatever reason and there was the who-shall-not-be-named look alike. Hahaha. Anyway we had fun and I love the mochi ice cream & strawberry smile best lol as usual :)

160409
lulu’s bday! (: surprised her with a cake in the morning before GP. Well, not exactly a surprise though hahaa. She knew it and we knew she knew haha. Went Yishun Safra for lunch after lessons since we had a 3 hour break in between before the nonsensical physics value added lesson. Whatever. I had carbonara, wasn’t very nice but its the company that matters isn’t it? Haha :D

090409
PW results was a disaster. Nevermind, what’s over meant to be forgotten. lol. Had tea time buffet at lao Beijing after much consideration. Kind of regretted not insisting on sakae lol. I once ate at lao Beijing and I dislike the food but decided to give it a second chance nonetheless since I thought that they might’ve improved over time? But whatever. The choices were limited and what’s available isn’t very delectable. I reckon the siew mai & springrolls were the most delicious out of the lot.

FAMILY DAY & SLEEPOVER! :D

2009-04-07T23:19:00.012+08:00

alright, its been a few light years since I last blogged. haha okay, I'm exaggerating things once again. That's so me whatever. lol.

Anyway, sleepover at my house last saturday night/sunday morning was fun lol. haha, alright, technically speaking, it wasn't a sleepover. We barely slept, I only slept for like whatttt...an hour? And it's already considered alot already compared to the rest. lol. had dinner at sakae with steph on saturday after tuition before we went to my house. Bala and Waldron came shortly after and we left for supper after Steph finished exploring facebook. lol. We walked alot and took a long time as usual before we finally decided to have tau huey and you tiao for supper. lol. I never knew the you tiao at the shop was so yummy can, it's so near my house but yet that's the first time I ate there lol.

headed home and played bridge. haha it's been long since we played bridge together lol and it was darn hilarious seriously cause we kind of forgot how to play. HAHA. and what's more, our cards kept going missing. gave up on bridge and watched quaratine instead.I wasn't a least bit interested in the movie, it seems like some boring documentary to me. We stopped the movie and had a gossip session lol while steph fell asleep. The way Steph slept was hilarious lol. HAHA. Anyway, Zhanglu finally came at like 2am I guess and we continued talking. lol.

I fell asleep while Steph and Zhanglu did the poster. We started preparing the spaghetti at around 4am? haha not we lah, I mean they. hahaha I couldn't do a shit lol. heck, I didn't even know how to on the stove. HEHEHE.

We thought we were late for family day but turns out we were still early since the rest were even later. lol. Jiamin & Jolene came and we checked out the stalls. went over to the dunking machine at around 10 and watched the first teacher got dunked followed by ms rahman! took the viking ship with steph, isabel, aida & zhihao. The viking ship was a joke lah lol. slacked quite a abit at the redcross room, totally love the aircon man :D went for dinner aafter family day, I love pepper lunch :)))

PW results out on thursday. I hope we can get at least a B? Seriously, I'll be ahppy with a B lol =) alright wish me luck :D PE tmrw and I'm totally dreading it and am praying really hard that we won't get you-know-who tmrw for PE. lol. goodnight world.

CHOMP CHOMP & GOING BANANASS! :D

2009-03-14T22:12:00.004+08:00

The long awaited march holidays are here at last but I wasn't as excited as I thought I would be, probably cause I know I've got plenty of catching up to do during this miserable one week of holidays. haha but I guess I should be thankful yeah at least I don't have to wake up at some god damn time in the morning, like as if I'm gonna catch the sunrise or something. It's so damn annoying, why can't school start later in the morning? or at least do away with the flagraising, seriously, I can live without it.

went to chomp chomp for dinner yesterday :D yay. I've been craving to eat at chomp chomp since god knows when though I ate there not too long ago. hehe. Anyway, I think I ate alot at chomp chomp yesterday. I love the big big glasses of sugarcane, if only I can bring the glasses home. we had ice cream for desert after dinner. Going bananas was yummy but apparently, Isa said that she couldn't taste anything probaby cause her banana split was too sweeeeet? I don't know. whatever, I love mudpies lol :D:D:D Oh and yesterday was black friday. It's like so coincidental that we went for dinner on black friday too last month. Black fridays are anything but black. lol :)

I barely did anything today. I mean, c'mon, it's the start of march holidays, I totally don't feel like studying man. okay whatever, since when I feel like studying yeah. Studying and I don't mix. lol. kind of slept my day away and I feasted for dinner today :) hehe. am gonna feast again during buffet tmrw, can't wait omgggg :) BUT feasting is so sinful. I'd better watch my weight. If only I've got a really high metabolism :( Anyways, did I mention that my dad got me a new laptop? :D LIKE FINALLY. HAHA. I love my dad lol :) I can finally get rid of my stupid retarded tablet that hangs every now and then. heh :)

the indulge & buttons!

2009-03-09T23:54:00.012+08:00

The weekends passed by in a blur and I'm glad that monday concluded already which means 4 days to go before the long awaited march holidays. Not that the march holidays are very worth looking forward to but at least that would mean sleeping in late :)

Today was alright I guess except that I felt kinda tired. I'm growing accustomed to starting off each week with a long day. Anyways, guess I should start turning in early and stop taking naps at ridiculous timings. whatever, that shall be my after march holidays resolution.

Anyway, I caught the curious case of benjamin buttons in the theatres at long last! haha, been wanting to watch it since forever and I'm glad I did. The storyline's captivating and plus, brad pitt makes such a good eyecandy :) HAHAHA. Anyway, dinner at The Indulge was greattt :DDD

FUN FUN FUN! :D

2009-03-01T23:34:00.023+08:00

This weekend had been rather unproductive in terms of schoolwork. I barely did anything, been out for like the entire friday and saturday but whatever, I'd fun :) hahaha. caught he's just not that into you on friday in the theatres. was tad bit disappointed though, probably cause I'd high expectations for the movie. ah well whatever, nevertheless it was still enjoyable on the whole. had dinner at pepper lunch, I realized I haven't eaten there for quite sometime. I love beef lol =)

met up with clique in the noon on saturday and went to Jolene's house to surprise her. But obviously, it wasn't a surprise since Jolene saw through Jiamin's lie easily. Anyway, it doesn't matter lah :D Jolene's hamsters were so cute or rather, hamsteees - that's how Jiamin call them. hahaha :D And I found out that Jolene's brother is in 01/09. haha, what a coincidence but then again, I didn't see him during civics or college cip. think I'm blind or something. lol. watched legally blonde while we waited for Joyce to come before we left for lunch at pasta mania. I love the banana desert pie lol :) My all time favourite haha!

went to gramps house after that before meeting waldron to get to the flyer. haha, we were late but not latest so that's good enough =) HAHA. bala, taihuat, waldron, mh & eileen queued overnight at the flyer so we got free tics lol :) had dinner at popeyes, not as appetizing as before since I was pretty full still.

took the flyer after dinner. The flyer isn't that fascinating after all and it would've been better if it went a tad bit faster but still, it was fun :)

Physics SPA and Napfa's tmrw. sigh, life's tragic :( haha alright, enough of my nonsense, I'm tired of babbling & the rest of the flyer pictures can be found here:D till then~

HAPPY V.DAY!

2009-02-14T00:11:00.018+08:00

I’m bushed thanks to all the walking today. Did college CIP today which was tiring lah but I don’t really mind since it equals to no lessons! HAHAHA. I think I’d rather do college cip every Friday than have lessons, actually I would love it more if it’s on Monday :P So anyway, we got the blocks with the most number of units but turns out we were the first to finish lol =) I’m so prouddddd of us. Hahaa! Isabel was hilarious lah, we went knocking on the doors then she was like telling me not to stand so near to the door just incase they pour kerosene on us. Funny shit. And did I mention that my first casualty (the one whom I attended to during first aid duty on wed) was in my group for college cip today. Haha okay lah, I didn’t attend to him cause I know no shit about first aid. HAAH. I don’t even have a clue as to how to treat wounds eh. omggg, I feel so hopeless. Lol.

Anyways, we went to help the other two groups before we all sat under the void deck and waited patiently for the retarded truck to come. The stupid truck took eons to come can and we were like so hungry, stinky and warm. Arghh, stupid shit. Anyway we were entertaining ourselves. Hahaha, but I seriously don’t see how this college CIP helps to improve bonding between the junior and senior class. Haha, I mean, did we even bond with our juniors? Oh wells whatever.

Went to the nearby hawker centre for lunch after college cip. It’s like there’s food at long last! Heh. Headed back to school after that before Aida, Isa, Waldron & I went down to town. I don’t know what’s wrong with me today, I’m so into trying heeeeels. Haha but it was fun shit=) I tried so many pairs at Mango espeically when Isa and Aida were trying on clothes and I look almost as tall as Waldron ok!! Hahahaha. Anyways, I think the pair of grey heels from Zara and the black heels from Mango are niceee eh but both are expensive shit. Ahhaa, I shall be a good girl yeah? :D:D:D AS USUAL.

I look TALL RIGHT. HAHAHAA ((:
Aida left afterwards. Steph & Bala joined us for dinner at the exclusive place highly recommended by Isabel. She calls it exclusive, a better word for ULU I guess. We had to walk hell a lot before reaching the eating place. There are blisters on my toes already can!! Haha anyway, the food were yummmmy lahh omgg. I love the beef in basil leaf and the beefball most eh! Hahaa wait, I like the pandan chicken and mango with glutinous rice too. AIYA, actually I like everything we ordered okay :P Everything’s so delicious lah. OMGGGGG, I feel HUNGRYYYY NOWWWW :(

Went to the playgrounds nearby after that. Haha don’t know what’s wrong with us today, it’s like as if nobody wanna go home yet. Lol. Haha anyway playground was fun but the see saw was scaryyy thanks to bala. T.T headed home after that and guesss what? Steph & I heard someone screaming when we were walking towards the overhead bridge and turns out its bala lol and the next minute bala and Waldron were running like crazy. HAHAAHA. DAMN FUNNY OMG. KODAK MOMENT. SIGHHH. If only we took a video of that. heh. And I'm like watching the videos taken at the playground just now. Ohmygod, they're cracking me up big time lol.

And I’m so saddd lahh, I didn’t take any photos of the nonsense we collected todayyy :( okay whatever, I’m being retarded again and I really need to fix my bio clock. I am too hyperactive at nighttt. Damn. Haha okay whatever, black Friday isn’t that black after all! It’s pretty AWESOME actually (: HAHA.

That’s all for now &

♥ HAPPY VAL’S DAY EVERYONE! (:

HAPPY HUMAN DAY! :D

2009-02-01T22:04:00.007+08:00

been rather lazy to blog these days since life's been pretty mundane. The CNY holidays passed by in a blur. Oh wells, good times are always shortlived. had plenty of fun and gorged on new year goodies. I don't even wanna think about the calories I took in during CNY especially on the second day of CNY when I visited my uncles' houses. Seriously, my two aunts are so into cooking, baking & buying. There were so much food and as yummy as they taste, nobody was keen on eating already after awhile.

Just had reunion lunch with my paternal side this afternoon before I left for tuition. lol. For the very first time, I actually looked forward to tuition cause I barely know anyone from my paternal side. I don't recognize some of them and I don't even know what to acknowledge most of them. lol. The food dad catered were alright I supposed with sweet and sour pork, duck, lemon fish & the yam paste being the best and thank goodness, most of the leftovers were taken care of otherwise I will have to have them for the entire week man. That's what I hate most about catering, there are always plenty leftovers. so annoying.

Oh and I had laoyusheng yesterday and just now :) HAHAAA. Tonight's the fourth time I'd laoyusheng but I still want MOOOOOOREEEE :DDDDD Think I'll never get sick of yusheng. hehe. I totally love it man, it's soooo yummmyyy :)

I'm suffering from serious monday blues. I totally hate my timetable man, mondays and fridays totally suck to the max, why must the week start and end off on a sucky note and plus there's PE tmrw and I'm pretty certain that history's gonna repeat itself and PE's gonna leave me with really bad muscleaches once again. Last week's PE was so bad thanks to the nonsensical standing broad jump that I had difficulty walking especially down the stairs lol. Its karma I guess, haha, serves me right for laughing at ZL the other time lol. BUT ZL is still the funniest this time round, the way she wobbles down the stairs is damn funny. hehe. Okay, I shan't be so bad just incase I get my deserts tmrw. sighhh, life is just tragic uh. To make things worse, there's a 2hr chem makeup on tuesday Good gracious! Hopefully, the chem make up next tuesday will pass as quickly as the chem makeup we had last friday in winter wonderland lol. The classroom was freezing cold can and Isa, steph, terence, waldron & I were like squeezing together at one side of the table lol. how dumb. cosy but it didn't help to ease the harsh winter by a least bit. hahaa.

Uh oh, I just remembered that there's chem pre spa tmrw and I haven't memorised a shit. lol. Okays, think I should memorise at least umm 2 points? haha, I mean c'mon, just a pre spa, relax yeah? :P It's quite good if I can even remember two lol. Anyway, before I forget, happy human day everyone!!! (even though I don't really know what's human day all about. All I know is that it's a day where people laoyusheng lol).

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR'S EVE!

2009-01-25T00:00:00.002+08:00

Jiamin, Jolene, Belinda, Shuhui & Rachel came over to my house today. did nothing much, we merely slacked our time away and JM was just pigging as usual. lol. went down to Novena for a late lunch and Bel left. After much consideration, we settled for lunch at pasta de waraku. The food were pretty alright, not fascinating though. The Prawn pilfa looks yummy but oh wells, looks are deceiving. Only the prawns were nice.

Jolene & Rachel left after lunch while JM, shuhui & I went down to town lol. haha seriously, I think town is becoming my second home. walked around and I bought a new dress for CNY. RIGHT. I bet I won't even get to wear it since CNY is only like umm two days. Why the hell I need so many new clothes rightt. sighh. I've to stop spending unnecessarily but whateverr. Anyway guess what, I saw lynda tay again today! (: Oh my god lah, it's like I kept seeing her, I just saw her yesterday at town and saw her once last week at town too. haha, it's like so damn coincidental can. saw joyce at somerset station before we parted so we dragged her to take a photo lol. joined my fam for dinner afterwards.

balloons grabbed from swensens. lol.
went to school yesterday for cny celebrations. The day started off with chemistry and physics lectures being back to back. Seriously, this is the first time that I'm actually having lessons before the cny celebrations. sigh, why does life seems to get more tragic. Anyway, lectures were errrr...alright? hahah since I barely paid any attention, I was just busy talking. lol.The CNY celebration was medicore lah, I prefer the performances in IJ though. Oh wells whatever, I should stop making comparisons between IJ and AJ. They're like two opposite ends of the spectrum.

went down to town after the cny celebration with aida, waldron & terence. bought tics for Bride Wars and we slacked at the cine while waiting for bala to come lol. hahaha, it's just like PW man with us yakking our time away but whatever I don't care. lol. Isabel joined us afterwards & aida & terence left. Anyway, bride wars was aweeeeeesomee foursomee :DDDDD hahaa, it's hilarious lol and I love anne hathaway, she's so pretty man :) Alrighttt so next up on my must watch list: He's just not that into you

walked around orchard afterwards cause Isa wanted to shop. Left orchard for dinner at the zichar place near my house. ordered baby kailan, Fu Yung Omelette (?), prawn paste chicken & Ma Po Tofu :) haha, so yummy lol. & they came up to my house after that.

anyway, it's 12 midnight so HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR'S EVE to all!!!!

TGIF! :DDDDDDDDDDDDD

2009-01-16T22:07:00.009+08:00

TGIF! HAHAAAA. I’ve been waiting for friday to come since forever can. Seriously, 5 days of school felt like 5 years. The first three days in particular, I felt so drained probably cause of PE. I reckon Thursday’s my favourite day because we end at like 12.45 and GP’s the only proper lesson we have for the entire day :DDDDDDDD

Anyways, was kinda tired this morning since I only slept like whattt...5 hours the previous night? Haha okay but I’m damn energetic now though I gave my usual afternoon nap a miss. Hehe. Went shopping for CNY clothes with mommy after school today and it was extremely fruitful. Hahahaa, both my dad and bro were out of the way and the two of us shopped like nobody’s business. We acted like as if everyth’s free lah my god, haha but I mean, it’s Chinese new year righttt? :D ate at hk café and I’m freaking bloateddddd now.

Went to town after school yesterday with to celebrate aida’s bdayyy :D ate at swensens while Isa and steph went shopping. Waited for awhile before all our food came. MH& ZH discovered that the potatoes weren’t cooked yet so hmm, they ate some of the curry chicken baked rice and we took some also lah huh before demanding for a new one. Lol. So, ZH and MH had to watch us eat while waiting lol. Spent quite sometime talking at swensens and Aida asked for her free icecream and we helped her with it :D We grabbed some balloons on our way out. Hahahaa, we never seem to grow up lol :P We made a din outside swensens I guess. ZH’s balloon flew away and he was running after his balloon. Hahaha, damn funny can. I think I laughed too much at ZH alrdy and received my retribution. My stupid balloon sort of flew away too but aida got it for me lol =)

The balloons & us (: lol.
lol. look at all the baked rice.
Headed to taka to look for steph and Isa after lunch and I saw Lynda at taka. Haha I’ve the tendency to bump into people outside lol. Haven’t seen Lynda for quite sometime and she looked tired. JC life sucks lol. Doing physics mini project tmrw at Steph’s house. Haha, its like reliving those pw days? Anyway, gonna try to figure out thermal physics and application of differentiation this weekend. I shan't have my hopes high though since I'm pretty much hopeless. hehee.

My bro's off to KL this morning and I SO CANNOT WAIT for him to be back cause it would spell the start of the CNY holidays lol =) I can’t wait to eat laoyusheng. Hehehe :DDDDDDDD

0108 CLASS CHALET!

2009-01-08T20:23:00.045+08:00

OMFG I PASSED!:DDDDDDDDDD

God knows how bloody scared I was when Joyce called to tell me that the results were out and I was like stuck at the schoolbuzz page for eons, contemplating whether or not to press on the 'my re test result' button. Okay whatever, thank god I got promoted otherwise I will have to leave for Australia which is reallllyyyy scary :(( BUT the downside is, school's starting in like umm 4 days time which is extremely saddening and heart wrenching since I'm nowhere near finishing my mountainous pile of homework :((

Anyway, I’m finally in the mood to blog about the class chalet. hehe. I felt so lethargic for the whole day and my fingers been feeling really lazy. Okay, I know I’m full of crap. Anyway, class chalet was FUN TO THE MAXXXX! (: Let's seee how much I can remember yeah.

Zhanglu came over to my house in the morning and she’s the bomb can. Her toiletries filled up nearly her entire shoebag lah. Tsk Tsk. Thought I was bad enough. Anyway, two of us waited patiently for dear Isabel to come and she took what seemed like donkey years to reach balestier. haha but anyway, we were still one of the first few to reach and others started streaming in steadily. Minghui called me not long after to get potatoes, corn and button mushroom from NTUC so obviously, I dragged Waldron to get the stuffs with me since he’s like the one who knows the place best so better make full use of him. Haha :PP We took years at NTUC I think, lol. Walked a few rounds around the place to get chips and sparkling juice and we wanted to get ice cream too but dropped the idea eventually. Played poker after that before the BBQ started. The whole chalet was akin to a gambling den. lol.

BBQ was pretty alright lah, I love the stingrays and potatoes best :DDD hehe and MH is hmm, a nutritionist wanna be? Hahaha, he’s like telling us that if we eat don't-know-what, it will spur the growth of a cancer cell or don’t know what lah and its best to eat food such as corn RAW. Okay, anyway I tried eating the corn raw and surprisingly, it tasted not bad ehhh.

Aida, me, ZL & Isa!

shiling, kanmani & pavi!

Taihuat & Boonhean
Went for nightwalk after that with aida, zhanglu, Isabel, bala and walls after BBQ. The place we walked at looked oddly familiar, it then struck me that the place was coasta sands where I had my sec 3 adventure camp at-.-! Anyway, there was a jumping frog in the grass I think which caused aida & zl to scream then I started screaming also. As usual, lol. We lied down at the breakwaters and it was pretty comfy except that the breeze was freezing cold but fortunately I brought my jacket along.

At the breakwaters:

Went back to chalet after that and played mahjong while waiting for my turn to bathe. Zhanglu was kinda on a winning streak. Anyway, Eileen and I would rather let ZL win rather than MH then we simply put all our debts on MH so he owes ZL a total of $4.40 yeah? :D We started another mahjong game after bathing then we made so much noise while mixing the tiles. Hehehe. But it was funn man and it keeps me more awake. Got bored after awhile and childish zhihao started building a pyramid using the mahjong tiles and the childish us joined in. lol. Haha we then threw the dice and mahjong tiles against the pyramid and sent the mahjong tiles flying in all directions. lol. Played bridge for awhile after that before Aida, Walls, Eileen Zhihao & Minghui and I left to catch the ‘SUNRISE’ at around 5am or so.

The Mahjong Pyramid. lol.

Walked quite a bit before we settled down at the breakwaters but the breakwaters were like so uneven this time round. The rocks were like so pointy and sharp, couldn’t even find a decent spot to lie down. The wind was freezing cold. Alright, anyway we saw nothing lah cause we were obviously facing the opposite direction but we had no choice yeah cause if we went the other direction, we will end up at the carpark. So, there’s no way that we can see the sunrise at pasir ris park I guess? I don’t know, screw geography.

The 'SUNRISE'? LOL.
MH, ZH, Eileen & Aida went to have breakfast after watching the 'sunrise' while walls and I went back to the chalet to sleep at 7am. Lol. I seriously need to sleep man otherwise I probably can’t survive the second day.

Anyway, the whole chalet was so silent when we returned, several conked out already lah. Climbed onto the bed and told Isa to move in to lemme sleep. Hehe. Slept for like 3hours before I got woken up somehow. And I realized that Isa was still sleeping beside me lol. She slept for so long alreadyyy! Went to macs after that for brunch but breakfast was over so we headed to subway instead. We had second thoughts about having breakfast at subway so headed over to err…the don’t-know-what place for breakfast lah.

Watched ‘Wanted’ after that and I was literally dozing off already. Haha, not that I really care since I watched the show before already. Lazed on the bed after the movie ended and Steph came with donuts! Haha like finally she’s back from indo omggg. We waited for shiling to come before we headed to the play in the playground in pasir ris park followed by dinner at pasta mania.

ZL, Steph & I went to get the birthday cakes for aida, bala & yongtat after that but yongtat didn’t come on the second day. We hid the cakes in the chalet’s fridge with zhihao’s help. We then ran out of the chalet to light the birthday cakes when walls texted me that they were coming back soon. Haha, anyway I was being damn stupid. Haha, ZL and Steph ran out barefooted with the cakes. I wanted to wear slippers then I saw their slippers on the floor so I was like thinking why they ran out barefooted so I ran out barefooted too. lol. It was damn stupidddd can. Anyway, we had so much difficulty lighting the cakes but the process was damn hilarious. We laughed like crazy can. lol. Anyway we finally managed to light all the candles and brought the cake in yeah =) I hope it was a surprise. Haha okay anyway happy birthday to the Jan babies! :)

Played speed with steph after that and I think my reaction just gets slower as I age lol. Played heart attack after that with steph, zl and walls and screamed a lot as usual. Okay, bala built a uno stacko with the mahjong tiles and we hopped over to the mahjong table to play uno stacko, or rather, mahjong stacko? Haha, and I am so proud of myself, I wasn’t the one to ruin the stacko. lol =) hehe. Went down for BBQ afterwards, I reckon that’s supper? Haha, ohmygod, I feeeeeeeel fat.

Mahjong Stacko!

Potatoes!

Anyways, everyone left for night cycling afterwards and zhanglu, steph & I had the whole chalet to ourselves. Haha ohmygod, that was shiok man. Lol. Steph turned down all the aircon and it was freezinggggg cold pleaseeeee but I like it. HEHEHE. Played PS while we took turns to bathe. Hehe, I think burnout is fun, the one that we get to crash into the cars. Lol. ZL says that I look a tad bit too happy whenever I crash into the cars. Heheee. Think I’m a sadist. Heh. Ate Sushi and the mandarin oranges (?) while playing. The sushi was so delectable can, it’s so cold and when you chuck it into your mouth, it just feels soooo yummyyyyy! Should’ve bought more though I was bloated by then already. We figured out that we should sleep since we were kinda tired from the first day. Haha, ZL and I conked out in no time while Steph was still in a half conscious mode. had such a deep sleep that we didn’t even hear the doorbell ringing. Lol. Anyway the guys climbed in after night cycling and the three of us got woken up after that. And seriously, the aircon was so damnn cold after I washed up. I was jumping around, trying to stop myself from getting frozen. Lol. It’s all steph’s faultttttt. Stupid ZL still laugh at me and claims that she’s not cold when she’s wrapped up like a cocoon in the blanket. lol.

Alright, enough said. I’m tired after all the typing. Anyway, I’ve uploaded all the pictures in my camera, go to my photo album to get them. And I can’t believe that I only got like whatttt…94 pictures?! I expected way more from the three days two nights chalet can. I mean, I still remembered the other time where we took like 100 over photos with belinda’s macbook in less than an hour. Grahhhh, shall camwhore like crazy during the next class chalet, if there’s still one.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOYCE!!

2009-01-05T00:42:00.001+08:00

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOYCEWOONWEILING! ((:

I'm bushed, my eyelids feel heavy. Hmmm, met up with jiamin & marcia at orchard today to hunt for Joyce's present at fareast. Walked all around the place and we eventually settled on getting a pair of black pumps for her before we headed to taka to get her a birthday cake :D Spent a bomb today lah, damn it. Didn't want to spend so much but sometimes, it's just not within my control yeah? :P Ayyeee but actually, I didn't spend alot compared to the amount I spent on mango so it's okay I guess. HEHEHEE. Anyway, I got myself a new schoolbag for the new year! hahahaa, I'm a happy girl yayyy :D And guess what? My slippers broke while we walked back to the orchard mrt! HAHAA. OHMYGODDDD, I was so damn happy can, my slippers finally broke at the right time and place!! whooppeee! So, we headed to mephosis and I got myself a new pair of slippers. yay! I became a happier girl after that :)) But the tragic thing is, I'm BROKEEEEEE SHITTT now :((( Any donations, pretty please with a cherry on top?

Anyway, went to meet jolene and joyce at tp after that. They were clearly bored after waiting for the three of us for god knows how long. haha omgg seriously, we should kick the bad habit of being late. The three of them waited while Joyce and I spent eons at the photocopy shop. lol. Anyways, we then went to my house to cut the cake and those four were seriously behaving like kids. lol. went for dinner at some nearby zichar stall after that.

So, actually, we intended to go home already after talking for god knows how long. but guesss whattttt, we spotted mrs eugenia lee tan's car. We weren't that sure that it's her car actually so anyway being ever so kaypo, we ran back to my house and we took the same lift as her. We were like trying to contain our laughter with JM being the least successful? haha, she made it so obvious, marcia also lah! Eugenia lee tan was like staring at Joyce, I reckon she recognises her or something then she knew we were from IJ already lah. She went "That's the typical laughter from IJ girls." LOL.

ahhhh shittt. guesss I should stop blogging already. Class chalet's tmrw and I barely packed. arghhh, and I don't feel like bringing so many things lah, I feel lazy.

HAPPY 2009! :D

2009-01-01T21:44:00.028+08:00

I've been wanting to blog but couldn't find time to. I mean, it's the first day of 2009 so obviously I've got to blog yeah. haha. First of all, a very HAPPY NEW YEAR to everyone out there! :D haha okay, I know, the first day of new year would over in less than 3 hours time but who cares? haha, it's the thought that counts yeah? :)

Anyway, hmmm, honestly speaking, I don't really look forward to the new year and there's nothing much to rejoice over actually with school reopening soon and A's pressing close. I've barely started on my homework. Seriously, I will be so proud of myself if I can even complete one eigth of my homework by myself before school reopens? HAHA. Okay, I shall pray that I can, that's the least that I can do. lol :P As for A's, I don't feel too optimistic about it considering that I know nuts about the topics taught after promos. heck, I don't even know the topics tested for promos well. On a lighter note, I can't wait for A's to end. Yeah, I know, it's only new year's day and I'm talking about the end of A's which is like a good 11 months away or so but whatever. haha, I'm really excited and am SO LOOKING FORWARD to life after A's. Bet I will be so happy after A's that I will probably even be smiling when I'm sleeping? HAHA.

Thinking back, 2008 had been both a good and a bad year? haha. Academic wise, 2008 had been really bad for me. I mean, I've never failed so many tests/exams in my entire lifetime before. I don't know lah, JC is like a far cry from secondary school. The amount of mugging time required of me in JC in order to merely scrape a pass for my exams is like a zillion times more than what I spent on studying in secondary school. JC makes me feel like I've NEVER mugged at all back then in IJ and I really wanna go back to IJ, it's like stress free man! HAHAHA. The slackers are missed, lol =) Anyways, I'm glad to say that apart from academics, 2008 had been a great and funfilled year :))

went for the countdown at marina bay yesterday night. had dinner at newton before we went down to PS for tau huay (spelling?). Okay whatever. haha anyway, bala's really into walking and he walks so fast man. Seriously, everyone should learn the art of walking SLOWLY from me. I mean, what's the rush when you've got all the time in the world yeah? haha okay lah, I shan't fight for the title of the queen of crawling with syafeeqah. lol. I can never beat her ohmygodd. haha. So, we walked to ermm, clarke quay after that and went to see the 45 bucks bungee jumping (or whatever you call that). haha, think I would rather spend the 45 bucks on shopping than to scare the shit out of myself even though I've got 2 sponsors? lol.

the self proclaimed si da tian wangs. lol.
we headed down to esplanade after that. slacked there and enjoyed the aircon and camwhored but poor ole me got victimised again :( we then squeezed into the crowd at almost 12 to watch the fireworks display :) The fireworks were simply stunning, it's way better than the NDP's fireworks display :)) And the river looks really pretty also but would've been better if there were occasional cool breezes. went to Lau Pa Sat for sugarcane afterwards. haha, that's like our first drink of 2009. hehe. Okay anyway, this really reminds me of PW. It's kinda like the exact same route we've taken to watch the NDP fireworks display after the PW meeting. Guess I'll miss PW excluding the times that we really had to do work.

Credits to waldron for all the fireworks pics.

Alright, it's time for some new year resolutions although I never seem to achieve any of them each year. lol.

1. Ace my exams without studying (My every-year new year resolution that probably will never be fulfilled unless I go back to primary 1 yeah but whatever, it's still part of my new year resolutions. lol.)

2. Complete all the necessary homework & focus during lectures and tutorials when necessary :P lol.

3. Excel in A's. (Hmmm, is this considered?)

4. Shed some calories. Hmm, I'm not greedy, 5kg will do yeah. HEHEHE.

5. Cut down on my leisure time and activities and be less laidback.

Alright, that's all. I will be hoping against hope that I'll be able to fulfill them? Fat hope I guess but no harm hoping yeah. I mean, what's life without hope? :P I just finished watching all the available episodes of Season One of 90210 and I think Ethan Ward is really cute. hehe and I like Silver and Annie too =) Anyways, I've been dying to start watching 'On Air' but couldn't find the time to.

Time passes EXTREMELY fast when you're slacking which totally sucks. I really don't wanna go back to school, go back to the life that I've got to endure the many boring and lengthy lectures and wake up so damn early in the morning just to get myself tortured mentally and physically in school. Sigh. Usually during the december holidays, somehow, I will wish for school to reopen soon but this year is clearly an exception. NEVER did once I feel like returning to school. In fact, I RESENT going back to school. It's prolly cause of the mountainous pile of homework that I've got and plus, provisionals made me feel as if my 2 month holiday just started. lol. ahh whatever, whether I like it or not, the fact that school is reopening in 12 days time remains and I've just got to live with it.

I feel bloated. My dieting plans are always a flop, they always backfire. whatever, my fingers are tired. buhbye.

clique clique clique! :D

2008-12-27T00:21:00.009+08:00

met up with clique today (: haha. Initially, Jolene told me that she would be late but turns out that she's the first to reach. lol. shopped around orchard after that, the sales were disappointing man. Just when I felt like spending, there's nothing that caught my eye. sigh. Maybe god wants me to save up for a rainy day. haha. went to the skate park after that to play cards while waiting for joyce to come. played bridge at first then switched to heart attack when joyce came. screamed alot as usual lah, drawing unwanted attention. And jiamin's reaction is still kinda lag. hahahaa :P

went hk cafe for dinner after that and we sat there for what....2 hours? haha, we were like yakking nonstop and the waitress was like hinting to us to leave cause apparently, there's like a long snakelike queue outside? haha, if we knew, we would've left quickly yeah? haha, I mean we are such considerate people :) I feel damn thirsty now lah, I probably talked too much just now. We literally spent the whole day talking man. lol. And Joyce,marcia & jiamin were like urging me to open their christmas cards so obviously I knew there was something fishy about the cards but I just went ahead and opened them. my first reaction was to scream when I opened the card, attracting unwanted attention once again -.-! Seriously, they ganged up and pasted a photo of a cat in all their christmas cards lah. Luckily Jolene & liting was kind enough to spare me that. Hmm actually, its just that liting wasn't aware of their stunt lah, I bet she would've pasted a more horrible fierce looking cat if she knew. HEHEHE. So anyway, I've gotso much difficulty reading their cards now can, I'm like trying to cover the picture of the cat while reading their cards -.-! I have the urge to rip off the cat pictures man but being ever so nice,I decided against it :) Liting left after that and the rest of us continued walking around orchard and we stood at kino and continued yakking away. lol. guess we were just being retarded again but I just love talking so much yeahh :)

I'm almost done with season 2 of gossip girl and I'm soooo glad that serena stopped being a bitch to blair. lol. and surprisingly umm, I like the pairing of chuck and blair man. And I think jenny humprey's kinda pretty and she's way more likeable in season two than one. Nate Archibald's cute but his screentime is just downright pathetic.

I love life after provisionals :) Its like so carefree, I can do whatever I want and go out without having to feel guilty. haha alright, I'm acting like as if I don't have any homework to do. Think I will be hitting the panic button when school reopens.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

2008-12-25T02:15:00.019+08:00

Just came back not too long ago from the Christmas party at walls house and I'm like so tired now but yours truly can’t go to bed yet cause the genius me can’t find the damned hair dryer which I suspect my parents either threw it down the rubbish chute or brought it over to the new house already. So, I guess, I’ve got to rot online for like whattt….another 1 hour over but nevermind, shall sleep in late tmrw since I plan to skip lunch yeah. I’d better do something to salvage my weight after feasting so regularly. I highly doubt I will be successful man and I have an urge to eat buffet nowwww. Oh my god, any takers? :D HAHAHA. I misss eating buffetttt omggg!

Anyway, Christmas party was fun. Only 12 turned up though it’s supposed to be sort of a class thing? Haha oh wells, it’s still fun nevertheless. I reached kinda early since I was supposed to lah huh. Played bridge while we waited for the rest to stream in. I haven’t played bridge for quite sometime man! So anyway, dinner started when everyone finally came :) watched Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging during dinner and while playing mahjong. The movie was fine though it lacked depth and there’s obviously no storyline? But who cares, I love chick flicks so yeah let it be :D we played poker after that and Isa and I became bankrupt in no time. lol. zhanglu and boonhean were like really good? they were on a winning streak man. Guess I’ve got no talent for poker afterall. So, Isa and I hung around waldron’s room after we grew bankrupt and his room is ummm...seriously too neat. haha. Were digging for his sji year books to laugh at man but apparently, our attempts were futile -.-!!!!!

went downstairs after that. Oh my god lah, I got sprayed at like crazy can and it’s all chungminghui’s fault! He started spraying at me out of the blue and the other clowns joined in T.T that’s mass bullying I swear. Haha, I think I asked for it. I mean, lol, I was the one who suggested to bala to get the sprays -_-””” Hmm, anyway I don't rlly know what followed after that. okay, I think zhanglu started spraying at weihao then we were all like running quickly towards the toilet so that we wouldn't be victimised. ZL ran into the men's toilet at first, haha. Anyway ran into the female toilet after that and hid ourselves in the cubicles. It was so scary can, I already have more than enough party strings and foam on me! Seriouslyyyy, I don't need more. And weihao started splashing water into zhanglu's cubicle while zhanglu sprayed foam out from her cubicle but the stupid foam went into my cubicle instead-.-! I always get victimised for nothing -.-! Oh and there's this water tap that's kinda freaky, the water was like flowing automatically when no one's even anywhere near the tap to activate the sensor. freaky but yeah, I took a video of it. lol!

cabbed home with isa after that though my bus was just right infront of the cab but who cares lah. I mean, cabbing is way faster and more comfortable right? And plus its christmas so who cares? haha, no link I know. Hahahaa :D

I still have got like three to four more episodes to go for campus shrewd. I can’t believe that I actually like the show when initially, I was like telling my brother how retarded and ridiculous the show seems to be and it doesn’t appeal to me a least bit but yeah, I am like totally enjoying campus shrewd now? Lol. But I can’t wait to start on season two of gossip girl man! Like finally!!!! waldron aw's truly useful this time. HAHAHAAA. I gave up digging for it on the net already and I kept misplacing the link that aida gave me and plus, the videos take so damn long to load. Tsk tsk. alright, that’s all for now. Pictures shall do the talking and I shall wait for the rest of the pics from zhanglu. And I hate my new camera man, it's so freaking lousy. The pictures are like so unclear. I've condemned it already. sigh, shouldn't have acted smart and brought the new one along. ughhh.

Anyway, MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!! :DDDDDDDDDDD

credits to terence!

Isa & me! (:

Walls's CHRISTMAS tree turned potted plant.

Poker!

I think swimming pools look the most beautiful at night :D

the mess we made in the toilet but its nothing compared to the mess we made near the swimming pool. lol.

Mh's travel mahjong. they're damn small can but we just have got to live with it. lol.

guess what's this? :P lol.
