I hate typing, backspacing, typing, backspacing. Monday blues, I hate what I am doing now, to the max, I have totally no control of what I can get in my life, it is not entirely dependent on what I am capable of, it is dependent on what are the other people in my life as well. I know i sound kiddish, it is a simple fact in life that all 20 year olds should be aware of by now. I am simply a spoilt brat who do not realize this and still insist on my life to go MY WAY.

This 8 weeks is 8 years to me. As i was walking to school this morning, I was counting the days left to the end of my internship in YCSS. (5x5)-2 national day holidays = 23 days. Pls, let it be over soon. Still, i have to be grateful that this would not be my full time job, although easy money, I feel that it is torturing me, alot. I just want to giv in my best for the things I do and make everyone happy. No, to others, my work is just rubbish. Hello, Im only a 3 week old intern (not even a teacher!). Perhaps teaching is just not for me.

I cant seem to hide my emotions. When Im upset, everything will be written on my face, same to when Im happy. My sup walked to my table to talk about work stuff, and he could tell that I am unhappy. Anyway, I have to do another chapter's slides. My third set since I started work. Haiz. :( I hope I can finish it by weekend so it doesnt eat into my time with Dear.

I miss NTU actually, suprisingly. At least it is better than life now. Like the people in Singapore rather the British than the Japs so they were happy when the British came back. Im sry, they fill up my entire mind. And Im teaching this friday, next monday and next wednesday! and his gonna observe. omg.

Pls, give me some reason why I should come to school everyday (other than darling intern/trainee friends)!

my HOLLYHOQUE stuff are not here yet!! im starting to get worried, they should be here by yesterday.. ): all these anxiety suffered cos of the $2.24 saved.

Exams are round the corner, 1 more month, stuck between being happy about it anot, 'cos Dear and I are going on our short BKK trip just 1 mth n a week from now. Totally looking forward for it, for the fact that we booked our tix last year from the Jetstar sale. Hotel not booked yet cos of the bloody protests.. but most likely pple would get tired by then. I should be scrimpin and saving for the trip, judging im spending near to 1k (stuff there are damn cheap -> buy more!) but im still crazy blogshopping still. Im not myself.

Mahjong last sunday at my house with molly, yh and et. Dear joined in halfway. Lady luck wasnt with me, lost 10 plus to Molly and et. It was still enjoyable. Sat, went to celebrate darling lily's bday at the Central, Partyworld, we had a hell lot of fun there and finally, fish head steamboat at Tiong Bahru. Dinner amounted to 100 for the 7 of us and we stayed there in the Hongkongy atmosphere to catch up n gossip.

HW111 assignment due soon.. our research topic: how has the media influenced ppl on the concept of beauty (to be slim)? Indeed thats a huge part of it attributed to the media. I hate the media, cos it defined me ugly. Sis has been on a diet and lost 3 kg while im still bingeing. OMG save me.

TLCN: when will b our mahjong session?!!? GRRRR.

2010-02-05T10:46:00.000-08:00

Time is crawling by. Life is quite miserable for me these days.. I spent most of my time worrying bout my readings and yet have no intention on working on them. Presentations soon, Im such a smart ass to opt all my presentation topics on the same period. TSK!

CNY is coming, oh great, angbao doesnt matter as muc to me now althou I have been rather broke 'cos of online shopping. Its killing me yet a salvation to me, what a paradox. N i still feel I will carry on getting hooked to it. CNY is gonna b the true killer. I hate to pretend that we are oh-so-close with relatives, I had to play along 'cos its quite a mutual thing, n if I don't, it would perhaps lead to a worse situation I would like to be in. Good thing my grandparents did nt produce more offspring, we could complete visiting in a day.

Its 3 in the midnight n im typing all these nonsense, could gauge how lunatic I am from there. I kind of lost my actual personality, the just-let-the-days-pass kind of attitude, which i consider a virtue. Who I am now is a totally artificial me manipulated by the expectations pressured on me. The stresss to do well, look good and be nice. In fact, this is too far off from what I am able to achieve, if only the attempts to do so are much less difficult.

Looking forward to tmr's date with Dear - you are quite abit of my salvation.

**Last year's Valentines - wishing this year's better! 12Feb2010

4 weeks since school started.. Things are much better than the first few days, when me n my friends were quite lost, so we took the map wherever we go, making it so obvious that we are freshies. Haha.

So far so good is NTU to me. The people. lecturers, culture and the food. They are making me so fat today. Was supposed to meet Vic today, but the date was postponed to next week due to her commitments, Thank god, I think she can't even recognise me when I'm standing right in front of her. Lol.

Anyway, I'm not gonna join a CCA, I wanna get a First Class, so I'm working on it. (People who know me very well will know I'm enthusiastic only at the start of everything) Haha. I Will try to keep this passion going, after hearing all those stories of good honours leading to goooooooood salaries. I wanna b a rich taitai in my retirement days. Lol.

I woke up so early to participate in Radio 91.3 Shanghai trip giveaway. Some ppl may think I'm crazy, but If I were to be so lucky like this guy, I will be on my way to Shanghai ): Nvm, I will try again next week.

Can't wait for COMEX as I'm getting my netbook!

2009-08-05T03:45:00.000-07:00

Last friday, went to Causeway Pt to meet Dear for dinner. We were attracted to Crystal Jade's steamboat poster at the restaurant. Although Seoul Garden provides a larger variety with hotplate, we decided on Crystal Jade cos it sounds so yummy, exclusive to the outlet at Causeway pt! Its priced ard 20 per person, comes with a limited amt of prawns per pax, the only -ve pt is that no fish, no crab, nt much seafood. Although bugis provides all the above, of course the ambience and hygiene nt as good. Personally, I'm satisfied with Crystal Jade's steamboat.

Through the whole dinner, only took this pic. We were busy eating. We both love the dumplings to the max. In fact, i'm not a dumpling lover, but here, the dumplings and wontons really rock my tastebuds. Very very nice! Like those Har Gao in high class dimsum restaurant. We ordered like 3 times, 2 servings each = 3x2x4= 24!! We ate approximately 12 dumplings each. This is crazy. In the pic above, the prawns are actually stil alive. Imagine their pain when they have a bamboo stick in them, although feeling sinful, they are really yummy. Svs is great too, although their face black like charcoal, they kept refilling out soup and drink at a fast pace, the lady even tell us to eat slowly after our 3rd order. Good! Will be back again!

Our tummies so bloated after that, so went arcade for some hoops! We dropped by TS and Dear's eyes glued to the tv set showing Micheal Jackson's 1992 concert. So we bought a copy home to enjoy!

The next day, prepared early to go to NDP preview, Clement's sis won those tickets. So excited. The mailer told us that the seating starts at 4, we were right there at that time. I think its a lil early, cos the programme start at 6. OMG. We were happy suntanning there. But 2 hours dint felt so long, perhaps with the company. In a while, the motivators came out and the programme start in no time. We even got a free picture taken by those ppl promoting for Canon, it was printed into a card for us, Nice! I find this year's NDP quite entertaining, not too bad, but I'm not in the right position to comment on it, cos I'm not a NDP fan, din't even view it on TV last year. Still, it was great being in the crowd, yelling 'Happy Birthday Spore' and doing the Marina Wave!

Took like 160 pictures! I really like the one with 2 hearts. They are lights from the funpack. I dont understand why Dear's light can turn blue, its actually either white or red. Lol, but it died after awhile, guess its spoilt. After NDP, we walked to Funan and Dear's Dad picked us up for supper @ Balestier Bak Kut Teh.

Sunday, brunch was with Dear's family @ Red Star Restaurant. The dimsum there is superb! Very very nice! The previous sunday was at Chinatown Pt's Mouth Restaurant, for dimsum as well. Both are very nice, comparable to Yum Cha, this made me miss the days my Dad bring me to Yum Cha for dimsum, and I ordered like crazy, those were the days I'm at my peak of my weight of cos, haha.

After brunch, his Dad sent us to Vivo, we were heading to St James for Shop n Swap Flea Mkt! I loove it, only if its more organized, less messy, and brighter. Nevertheless, I still spent a total of 20 dollars to get a brown cowboy vest and an oversized top, from popular blogshop stalls, its only at flea markets could I get those bargains!

Upcoming happenings for me!

1) Tmr would be HSS Welcome Day. I'm going alone, so miserable. Only there for the matriculation card and refreshments. Hehe!

2) Friday night's dinner would be steamboat with family organized by me! Yummy!

3) Visiting Flea-tique this sunday at Singapore Arts Museum for more bargains!

4) Watching UP this weekend

5) Spending the whole long weekend with Dear and family (his and mine) is loooves.

6) School starting next Tues ):

P.S. 1: I miss my friends, all of them. And its really hard to get all of us tgt, hopefully in a week's time can go KTV with them!

P.S. 2: My timetable is a total disaster, 5 day week and schooling for 1 or 2 hours each day. Still quite free though, ask me out! :D

P.S 3: To all: Enjoy our long nation birthday holiday! Esp those starting school anytime soon, all the best!

2009-07-28T21:07:00.000-07:00

literally SHOPPED TILL I DROP these days while i'm not blogging. it feels like nothing when i use ib, i keep spending n spending, n when i did my math, i spent a lump sum of near to 200 dollars! like OMG. ytd, caught up with BonitoChico's sale. Bought a dress and a top, when they emailed me the invoice bout 2 hours later, they added on that the rest of the items are OOS!! this is crazy, no wonder many say they buy on impulse there, there isnt much time to think whether it is worth the money, people just grab!

Ytd, i walked all the way to the jurong west stadium, i wanted a swim, and upon reaching i only realized that the pool is having mainteinance every tues. WTF. i had to walk back again, i dont consider this exercise for heaven's sake. and being at home means computer, means online shopping, means spending money again for me.. ):

Im pretty inspired to have an online business, nt really for the money, but cos it serves as an excuse for me to go overseas often. I really miss travelling, excluding the msia trips, i really need a getaway. Hoping for one at the end of the year!

Would upload pics of my loots when they're here!

2009-07-23T01:23:00.000-07:00

It wasn't my first time watching this trailer, it was months before when I first watched it, during the commercial break before any other flims start. It really makes me anticipate the movie, despite my preference for thrillers instead of cartoons. The grumpy old inventor, Carl, and the cute young scout, Russell, left a deep impression in my heart ever since. In the show, little Russell is offerring to help Carl to cross the road or his yard as he is supposed to do a good deed a day as a Scout, making him so helpful and lovable. The two main characters interest me much, as I realize that Carl, although seemed to be an angry old man, has actually a heart of gold, as he still allowed Russell to enter his house after he set off. The duo of young and old, one so happy and the other so glum, had made me feel more curious on how their journey would turn out to be...

(From the top: Carl, Russell, Dug and Kevin)

Remember to catch UP!

UP in Singapore Cinemas opening 7th August 2009

2009-07-22T19:14:00.000-07:00

Yay! I won tickets to a sneak preview movie! Or should I say.. Dear won those tickets to the sneak preview movie. It was quite embarrassing when we turned up at the ticket collection booth yesterday at GV Grand (it doesn't mean really grand, it simply means the GV at Great World), present my IC, and the helpers there couldnt find my name on the list and all. After clarification and showing the SMS, we realized that the contest was won under Dear's name. I used his email and name to take part in the contest too. After that, he kept on blabbering that his got the luck and not me. -.-

Anyway, The movie was 'The Hangover', it sounded foreign to me, and I went there with the its-free-what-do-you-expect mindset. Neither did I know its such a hilarious flim! Its actually about 4 guys, having one of them's bachelor's night party in Las Vegas where his wedding is in LA. They had this huge hangover which caused them to forget what they did the previous night, they did ridiculous stuff, from stealing a magician's tiger to having one of them married to a stripper. Its totally funny.. its my first movie that people in the cinema clapped after it ended.

Anyone going to watch the movie, I would remind you that even though its only NC16, it seems R21, I was informed of nudity in the show, but I didn't expect genitals totally exposed. Saw one of the guys in his underwear in the trailer, I thought that was the limit. Actually the course language and sexual content really added humour to the show. I would advice open minded ppl to go and watch the show and get a good laugh!

2009-07-19T04:53:00.000-07:00

Thanks all for your love, I'm fine really. Sometimes we do stupid things at times of despair, and my last blog entry is one of them, it came to be a misunderstanding, or probably time had washed away any grievances I had. I have deleted the previous blog entry that made you so puzzled, so as to not remind me of unhappy stuff, since they r bygones.

I should have revised on my grammar, if I made any mistakes in my posts, pls correct me kays :D

I went for dental checkup on Mon. The dentist is crazy, really, I've got this tooth right at the back, and its very close to my gums, she just use the surgical instruments to force through my gums in order to get some rubber band onto that tooth, I teared and bleed. Its so painful, still swollen now! Pls get a male dentist for long term commitment (like braces) cos female ones are really violent. (This is a generalistion.) Can't wait for my straight braceless teeth in a year's time or so..

Went for medical checkup on Wed, had a hard time looking for the medical center, good thing the whole process isn't as lengthy as expected, I even met darling Yiqing there, what a coincidence, of all days.. :D Then went JP to swop my house set top box for a Hubstation, my brother finally agreed after much persuasion, I can now record the channel 55 shows I often would miss! I almost got electricuted while fixing the machine to my TV. The guide book said that the blah voltage could be fatal. Phew!

It's the long awaited Thurs! Cos our pre-ordered Man Utd jersey arrived at the shop @ Queensway. Met Dear to get them, Lovely!

I know you would ask me, since when I became a Man Utd fan? Actually, I'm not really a diehard fan, though, if you asked me what's my favourite club, most likely the answer would be Man Utd. No particular reason, probably because people around me are the hardcore Man Utd fans, a fact hard to ignore, my brother and my bf. And got the jersey since Dear agreed to get it for me, out of courtesy, returned the favour.

Im not so heavy laa ):

I was fascinated at how crazy some football fans are. I came across this Man Utd forum. There was one person who commented, "Man U blah blah", nothing offensive.. Another fan replied his comment saying that he was disrespecting the club or sth like that, simply beacuse 'Man U' sounded offensive. I mean, many ppl will go about saying 'Man U' instead of 'Manchestester United', clearly simpler, so typing 'Man U' out like in a conversation is understandable. Today's sunday times featured this Liverpool fan who love the club more than his wife. Their apartment, wedding and even their wedding band, has something to do with Liverpool. I don't know, in my opinion, people have to get their priorities right.

Dear got me Beancurd tarts on the same day. I pestered him for them, for quite some time already, after reading some comments online.

I would say, it's delicious! As a beancurd lover, I really love this little delight. The beancurd is delicate and soft, eat especially when they are chilled, I fell in love with them on the first bite. Pls give it a try, I'm sure you will like it too. Lecafe dot com dot sg would be where u will go for the necessary information.

Friday, I couldnt join Yh, Yk n Molly to HollandV cos I had to go to Bugis to help Dear's Mom get her NDS Lite. She's totally into Bejewelled-sort-of game, and could spend hours on it. Dear hated BugisV, but I insisted on going, I need to buy something. Been some time since I spent on stuff. It was worth the effort, got the canvas flats below.

Nice? I need more clothes, I am one of those people who will be worrying theres nothing to wear every morning. None of that problems in JC, but uni's starting soon, I really need to get my wardrobe revamped. Thats why I have to trip to Bangkok! Expecting it in May, if only I'm immortal, time pass faster!

Steamboat was for dinner on Fri, at this shop right at the back of they alley of steamboat stalls. Their soup is really nice, other than that, everything else sucks. We had the teppanyaki, and I was so irritated with the oil splattering. It was so stuffy too, argh, service sucks as well. Probably will be back if they allow us to sit inside, to be able to enjoy the aircon and all..

Was already heading to ECP for my cycling session on Sat, but it rained just as we left the house. Dummer. So we went bowling instead, @ Jurong Chevrons. The only highlight of the day would be the highly anticipated Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, we watched it at JP GV together with my brother, my sis and her bf. We watched at 11.45pm, the 2.5 hours flied past, although I think the show is quite draggy. I still love it. Every episode of Harry Potter is worth watching. What Dear love of the show is Emma Watson, she's pretty still. For me, I'm horrified by Dumbledore's death, this episode made people love him so much, but destroyed him just as our love deepens. Other than Dumbledore's death and Snape's betrayal, there aren't much main points left. Still, pls watch, its worth the penny.

Im watching the Goblet of Fire on Chnl 5 now, my best rated HP movie of all, for its great graphics and sound effects. I will be waiting patiently for the next input: HP and the deathly hallows. I swear to be the first few to book so that I will not have to take midnight shows in order to get good seats. (I booked on Tue for Sat show, but there were only front show seats left for night showtimes in town :O)

Gonna concentrate on the TV set! Will update when there are stuff to!

P.S. A new blog song, a great record from the King of Pop, lots of love.. Enjoy!

2009-07-04T21:17:00.000-07:00

Us in coach!

its been almost a week since i've been back from genting. its a fantastic trip! i cant wait for the next time i travel! We took 11.30pm transtar coach las friday from golden mile, the travelling time was so short, probably cos its a night coach, we still expected to reach bout 6 in the morning, we were 2 hrs early -.- Dear n me reached KL 4am in the morning, although there are already many people n cars on the streets, the shops r nt open yet, we have no choice but to rest in mac,n play ds, it was a boring start.

thanks to my homework done, i found many good reviews on hon kee famous porridge at the pudu area where our bus stops. the shop open as early as 5am in the morning so we went hunting for this raved hawker food. The stall is in a easily spotted location in petaling street, although facing some communication difficulties (ppl there speak cantonese), we managed to eat the famous raw fish porridge. Ooishi! the congee is so sweet..i swear to go bac again if i could go bac to KL.

Dear having delicious Honkee congee!

Went to 1 Utama shopping center with a cab and shopped a whole day, but despite its a large mall, we dint manage to get much stuff. ): anyway, we got our 3.30 genting bus n skyway tickets n head to our holiday destination!

It was so fun on the cable car!

After checking in, its almost dinner time, called up the mushroom farm to fetch us from the first world lobby, it was a fantastic dinner, we spent 73rm there! I love the butter fish to bits, anyone goin genting can get from me the number of the restaurant, its a must try!!

Deep fried "standing" tilapia

After dinner, went jalan ard first world plaza, we were checkin out prices for the Dreamz magic show, n this auntie came to us, selling the front row seats at a bargain. after much consideration, we bought them from her, seriously din regret it. The magic show involved white lion n white tiger, as we were sitting in the front row, when the magicians brought the animals down, they were jus right in front of us! Dear was even asked up to perform with them, LOL!

The 2nd day was jus theme park, play play n play! It was so much fun!

Huge candy floss!

3rd day, went all the way to Good Friends Restaurant at highlands hotel to haf great dimsum, n then after manicure n some buying, we took transtar premium coach bac hm. i would recommend transtar coaches, they r very comfortable!i wan to go overseas again!!

2009-06-01T19:52:00.000-07:00

Im soo sooooo bored at home. Good thing Yh n Et are gonna have their block leaves soon, next tuesday, and we are gonna have 10 whole days of fun! Including celebrating Yk's bday..

Besides slacking at home for all the weekdays, the last weekend was pretty good. Dear's family got their new car, Toyota Picnic. Its so comfortable! They even got a DVD player at the 2nd row. Damn cool. Went for the famous Bak Kut Teh @ Balestier and it was very good. Dear promised me my favourite Maxwell Curry Rice this weekend, dont bluff me again pls, Im dying of staying at home all the time.

Sat evening, Dear sent me off to meet Yh, Yl, Donald, Molly n Dylan. Went for Sakura buffet at Clementi Woodpark. The outlet there is the best I've gone so far. There are 2 levels, wide variety of food. I love their cheese prawns n mayo baked scallops . Yum. It was a very enjoyable day and we had a great chat, a good laugh. I dint eat as much as I could, was taught a lesson previously, for some buffet years ago, it sucks to have your tummy bloated for the rest of the dae x_x Anyway, nice catching up with you guys, can't wait til Donald's bday chalet, our Escape and mahjong meetups :D

Sunday, met up with Yj, Val, Cl for dinner, went for Jurong Safra since I noticed their open house. However, the only place for us would be Jack's Place. Good enough though, good ambience just that it's a little packed. Chatted til 9 plus before parting. Val brought us the super nice chocolate from Australia. Very very delicious. Nice time with you girls :D

Anyway, I've accepted NTU's Sociology already, because I'm rejected by NUS FASS. Will choose NTU still cos of proximity and the smaller cohort, although I know many pple who entered Sociology as well. Looking forward to Uni life.

2nd attempt of driving test on 23rd June. I find that I have ample practise already, my instructor is not scolding me as much as last time. I really hope to pass this time, dont wanna waste another 200 plus bucks on another test and another lump sum of money on lessons ): They could cost me a short getaway to Msia.

.
.

Nothing much to update, life is rather routine now. Will update when there is more to come.
:D

Cheers all

2009-04-08T08:57:00.000-07:00

A-ha! Finally I blogged. Althou I'm super free now, I just cant find time for my blog. Lots to update.

Today was just lazing around at Dear's house. Yesterday was better.

He wanted to watch Shinjuku Incident. But I insisted on Confessions of a Shopaholic. Damn hilarious. Although I was in a not-so-comfy seat in the new cinema-Filmgarde @ Iluma, I still enjoyed the time dere, especially the part on the Gucci shoes. A must-watch!

And Im not sure if we're lucky or not, we went to Iluma, just on the day for David Archuleta's autograph session, and the movie ended just in time for it too. Heard loud killing screams from up above, was at Level 5, and those fans were at Level 1. Heads down to them, for ruining my eardrums. Kinda remind me of the days I'm so crazy about idols too.

I do enjoy his songs, he sang a few of them. Stayed to listen, I cant see him from so far back, but he really dint sound like his only 18. Left just before he started signing.

Then, Steamboat for dinner!

I gave him a treat for passing his driving test! So pro lor, first time pass already, remember to return the treat when I passed on 8th May!:D Anyways, dinner was almost perfect, if only the soup would taste better! Love the golden mushroom much much!

Nothing much happened in my life recently, just driving lessons and scolding from the instructor, he commented on how dangerous I'm driving and said that easily I could lead to car crash. --.-- He's exaggerating. Remind me of the "Hear only the good things" commercial.

And this was ages ago, celebrated Yanli's birthday at Ms Clarity Cafe @ Bugis.

They serve good food! Unlike other typical western restaurants, they made the effort to improvise and make their food items more unique, and taste great at the same time! Improvements could be made on their service. Nonetheless, the cheery place is worth the visit, felt so young there.

Walked to Central after lunch, discovered the candy making place at a secluded corner. Sticky! Althou hard to spot, still a crowd gathered in front of the shop to see the candy making process, its very interesting, and then I understand why Sticky's recruitment requires physical strength as well. The staff there are also kind enough to offer the "audience" the candies.

They are delicious. Their candies are in different shapes and colours, there are also premium packs with wordings or special dedications and flavours. So I bought a pack of ILU rock candy for Dear, glad that they satisfy his sweet tooth. :D

And I discovered potential in Dear's bowling when we visited Chevron's bowling alley one day. He's coaching me! Despite me being the more frequent one to bowl. (Im always heading drain) Next Remy Ong in the making. Haha.

Another day, Dear and me went to Central too, for Mr Curry, recommended by Vic. The place is very cute!

Hard to get what I mean with this very unclear picture. Go there and see for yourself, the behind is all kitchen stuff, for display, and they play Japanese music. Love the ambience.

Their food is so-so. Not very inexpensive. But ok, you can get to choose different types of curry and different food items to go with it. Not to bad a choice for a casual lunch when you feel rich that day.

Will be meeting up with friends tmr and Friday. Cant wait to the Good Friday, hopefully it will be as nice as it sounds, because I'm going to be the BBDC's circuit to drive, and spending the rest of the day at Night Safari. Wheee!

2009-03-07T09:40:00.000-08:00

I stopped the last post due to Blogger taking such a freaking long time to upload my pictures, I got so frustrated that I just wanted to shut my computer down right at that moment.

I've got so much to update on. It was my first cry yesterday 19 years ago, so blessings and presents came, thanks alot for all of them. Many came with good lucks for the release of A level results as well. Oh wow, its on the same day, how interesting. Many say I would be having birthday luck, but, in fact, not really, I did probably just satisfactory, some say I would be able to make it to uni.

History: B
Economics: C
Geography: D
GP: A
Math: D

I'm rather disappointed with History and Econs, i thought, a definate A for my favourite subject. ): I dint put in effort for Math and Geog so I would just admit it. A great birthday suprise for me would be from my GP grade. A?! Im not really so proficient in Angmoh. My brother laughed at that.

Anyways, had my discussion with him earlier, I always do that, I need his advice for almost everything. And the conclusion would be to submit applications for all the 3 universities, definately I would be able to get into one. Hmm, Hope so.

Yesterday was such a whirlpool of emotions for me, happy for some, sad for some, worried for some and elated for some. And for myself, I don't know if I should be glad anot, but I dint have time to think (like I would always), because Dear came to fetch me shortly after I get to talk to my friends.

The time I had, was only sufficient for me to catch up with my friends, visit the booths to collect brochures and freebies. After going home to wash up, Dear brought me to Boat Quay, where he planned my birthday celebration dinner.

He brought me to Dallas, a restaurant cum bar, at the end of the alley of bars. The ground level was rather noisy, with many angmohs drinking, almost devouring their beermugs. It was not entiring a good impression, and I doubted Dear's foresight. But as the server brought us up to the second level, the impression changed. The ambience was great, strong air conditioning and comfy cushioned seats. I love it!

The chefs were pretty generous in the portions, I felt like vomiting after the meal, full till the throat. But the food is really nice, I like the calamari, Dear favourite the mushroom soup. It was a hearty meal. :D

Dear prepared a mini birthday cake for me. Thanks for the love.

A walk to Singapore Flyer after that, just nice to help in our digestion.

On our way there... Lovely view at Boat Quay

We were just in time for our flight. As it was the last one of the day, we got a cabin for ourselves. It was really cool. The half an hour was just soooooooooooooo short. Snapped and snapped and snapped.

Thanks Dear for the wonderful day!

And to Yanli, Yanhong, Yukai and Engtong, thanks for the morning suprise. Thanks for your blessings and gifts: Yanli, Yanhong, Yukai, Engtong, Molly, Valerie, Chailing, Yijie, Siti, Izzat, Phyllis, Zhanhong, Tienfung, Chinghern, Yi Qing, Tzelin, Theresa, Desmond, Michelle, Eliz, Vic, Terrence, Yongcheng.

The unforgettable KL trip wif Yanli, Yanhong and Yukai was so so fun. It was my first trip overseas with my friends and I find it a very good experience. Malaysia is not that unsafe afterall. But it was indeed an expensive trip for me, spent near to 500SGD! Think I will go berserk if I upload all the pics, here are some of them...

I think he's very cute...

Miss the Root Beer Float?

Me and my shopping returns!

And this was way back, my job at Suntec. Beauty Asia 2009, I spent 3 days at the exhibition, saw many many many rich people, many salon bosses and traders. The stuff we are selling are so expensive, thats the reason why is a slacking job. And that's Carol, my partner. We had fun hanging out together. (:

This entry has taken me so long, till the middle of the night. Time to sleep..
Note to all my friends: No matter what results we got, we just have to hang in there! All the best in your future endeavours!:D

Im just back from my dinner at Seoul Garden Causeway Pt! It was supposedly my bday celebration with my family, but it does not seem like it. I tink it would still prefer the traditional cake cutting and candle blowing. I've gotta miss it this year.

To be continued..

2009-02-22T04:23:00.000-08:00

I had a great day today! :D Eh, only the later part of the day actually. I would explain why...

Me and Yanli met up at 6.15am at Boon Lay Interchange as we are supposed to reach Jurong Bird Park by 6.45am. Freaking early, I was so reluctant to wake up. As 194 is out of service, we took 251. As usual, we started chatting and like always, we never stop, haha. So we chatted and chatted, and missed our stop. Fortunately, we are only 2 stops away, and the bus driver told us that we could walk there. So we hurried down the bus and walked quickly towards that direction led by the driver.

Then super loud and horrifying barks were heard. And there came around 6 to 7 huge and scary-looking dogs sprinting towards at our direction. The good thing was that they were blocked by the fence of the factory. The bad thing was that we were stranded there, with noone to help us. Whats beside the pavement we were walking on was grass and then it was the expressway. And it was still very dark then, imagine how afraid the two of us are. We dint dare to walk on as we were afraid that there may be holes by any part of the fence and they may find their way out. Cabs wont stop for us because its an expressway. Shit. We got ourselves in such deep shit. (and according to what my brother say, German shepards are capable of fatal attacks) We were like the little cat in the picture below.

The thought of this gave me goosebumps. Luckily, there is a taxi coming our way, and I told Yanli that maybe we should try flaging for it. The kind uncle stopped for us, because he thought that we took wrong rides or whatever, cos nobody would flag for taxis on the expressways mah. And he was suprised when we told him that our destination is JBP, cos he pointed behind and said "Its only there!" We told him the reason why, and thanked him for being our saviour before alighting. We spent additional 2 dollar per person but we consider ourselves lucky because we managed to survive, Lol.

Okay, thats the end of our terrifying morning, the rest of the day went well for us.

We were still early when we reached the place. And we took quite some time to calm ourselves down. Our hearts were still thumping so fast! There was much delay and then we got to the event ground, got into our respective station groups, collected out shirts and then proceed to our station. Mine is at Pelican Cove, Yanli's at Flamingo Pool. I love the flamingos, they are super beautiful.

Actually the event is held by Ministry Community, Youth and Sports, it is something like a family day. I got to know friends there, the other people at my station are very friendly. Like working with them! I got to chat with Evon from bout 8 to 9 plus, when we are supposed to do nothing. Probably other stations have to do set up, but for my station, there is reaaly nothing much to do. Our game is "Mix and Match". You know, open up 2 cards of the same picture. There are only 5 pairs in one set, ridiculously simple. But the whole point of the game is the family bonding part (: These are the picture cards..

There are supposed to be 3 groups turning up at our station throughout the day, one group would only need to take 10 minutes, so we are actually paid for 7 hours for 30mins work. We got nothing much to do, besides taking photos at the free time, me and Evon even walked around the Bird Park and look at the birds. Evon say she thought they are part of a portriat.

From the top left: Yongda, Me, Evon, Helen. Middle is the couple, never asked for their names, just called them the couple as they are always together. But in fact the girl's bf is the guy's friend. Oops. Lol. We all did heart shape for the second picture is for them, Haha. The lady below is Emily, and indian guy we never ask. They are MCYS volunteers, super nice people!

And Evon took a picture with the kids!:D

We were so bored after that and ended up playing Heart Attack and Old Maid with the huge cards. It was so fun, especially that kind of enjoyment with people you knew less than a day. In no time, we were called to pack up and go back to the event ground.

There are many carnival games, food booths but we cant touch them, some of us were reprimanded for being caught enjoying ourselves, with the food and stuff. Who can resist popcorn and candyfloss? Anyway, reunion with Yanli and we watched the performances. I was glad to see all the families laughing and enjoying themselves, as part of the crew, and was happy at the success of the event.

After everything, we bid everyone goodbye and the both of us went walking about the park. We are already in there, why not make full use of it! Lol. We are typical aunties.

Tmr will be a job at Suntec! Hm, excited but a little lazy too. and 4 days later, off I go the KL!

2009-02-19T03:29:00.000-08:00

I passed my FTT(Final Theory Test)!! Im so happy! *Jumps around in joy*

I'm now already dreaming of sharing a 2nd hand weekend car with Dear once he got his liscense, then we can drive it around and he can send me home, with a much shorter journey! We are not greedy, just a Kia will do, Lol. The dream will remain as a dream for the time being.

Was at Dear's house yesterday night, celebrating his sister's birthday. His Mum ordered so many stuff, we were shocked when we went to collect them. There's Sakae, Delifrance and the birthday cake from Polar. And we took photos, using the self timer, so funny.

Happy Birthday Mei Mei!

After the celebration, Dear went to study for his upcoming exams while I went to study for the FTT today. I studied till 2am, there are so many questions in the book! But it all was worthwhile, thank goodness, I dint want to retake, that would be later practical test date and more lessons and more money too! Driving lessons are so expensive these days. ):

Woke up at 8.45 today, Gawd. Dear wasn't even half awake when I woke him up to help me with the door. I took bus down to Woodlands then took train to Gombak. After the test, went to JP to meet Eliz! That girl is having her birthday tmr! So I went to meet her, have lunch together and passed her her gift. I got her a Nike polo tee which I yearn one so much myself, but I could not fit in. Lol. This made me think of someone's gift still rotting at my house. Haha.

Happy Birthday Eliz!

I'm celebrating so many birthdays recently, Chailing's one coming, Yanhong's coming, and mine too, on the best day ever, A level results day. -.-"

n I really really need to lose weight. :/

2009-02-15T00:56:00.000-08:00

I wanted to get my V Day post done before leaving to met Yl, Yh and Yk, but Blogger is loading pictures so slowly, maybe because the files are much larger cos they are taken from my camera.

Anyways, I enjoyed the day alot, thanks to Dearest. :D

The start of the day wasn't as nice as planned though. Dear reached my house at about 11, and refused to let us leave the house as he wanted flowers for me to be delivered to my doorstep. We waited 1 and a half hours for my 9 roses bouquet. I was quite mad as we were supposed to be leaving my house by 11.15 as I planned the day and I wanted it to be smooth. Its ok if the flowers are nice, but they were like shit! The pink roses are so small and they are just wrapped commonly, without any leaves and those other little flowers that would usually go along. Dear paid $49 dollars for it. He said that it turned out totally different from what is depicted in the webpage. Its the first time I see him so crossed, cos his quite a well tempered person, he shouted at the person on the phone, demanding a full refund. He felt quite guilty for disappointing me. Pls do not patronize this online shop, unless you want them to ruin your day.

~~http://www.thesecretrose.com/~~

Dear went to JP to get me another bouquet, its for the same price and is much much nicer. Thx love. (:

We then hurried down to Dhoby Ghaut, lunch was supposed to be at Nihon Mura, that smart alec told me that the lunch wouldn't be so difficult so I dint make reservation, we were responded with a long long q. We got no choice but to settle lunch at Billy Bombers, we were so in rush for time that we dint take any pictures there, just this, while waiting for our food.

We rushed to the National Musuem after paying for the lunch swiftly. I planned a walk in the musuem actually, before our play, but the flower incident ruined everything. Its okay, we were just in time for show, which starts at 3pm. Singapore Love Letters is a play produced by Action Theatres, it comprises of 2 love stories, Akan Datang and Wife #11. Actually its quite boring, only a few humourous parts, but most of it is quite sian, maybe we are not classy enough to enjoy it, we find some of their english quite chim too, haha, I rather spend the money on 5 movies. Thx Dear for being so thankful and not showing that you dont like it, it was my idea. Haha.

We walked to Suntec, passed the Convention Centre and decided to take a look at the NTU exhibition, saw quite a few familiar faces. :D

Then was the most memorable dinner. It was at Dome, at Marina Square. Great food, great service and thes best V Day ambience is what they gave. There were 2 choices for the main courses, Dear and I got one each to try out, they were fantastic, super nice, although Dome is known more for their coffees. They were in the Valentines Day Set Menu, with drink, appetiser and dessert all together, and it all adds up to $39.90++ per couple, quite value for money, for V Day dinner. We rewarded them with 1 dollar tip for the excellent service and delicious food! Will be back at Dome again!

The cosy armchair made us reluctant to leave!

Assorted Tapas for our Appetiser!

My Roast Chicken Leg with Garlic and Spinach

Dear's Salmon Fillet with Half-Shell Scallop Pasta in Miso Angel Sauce

Our Dessert: Ice cream cake!

Dear was so excited to know what's for him, I told him to wait till the servers cleared the table but he was so anxious, Lol. I got him the famous Love 101 Compilation Album, and a David Beckham Eau de Toilette set, and the ticket for the play was part of the gift! He love the scent GUCCI cologne is about to be used up so I guess this was the perfect gift for him :D N thx Dear, for your flowers and Macaroons! Yummy!

After dinner, walked around Esplanade, caught the performance at the Waterfront and sat down to appreciate it. Matilda from Spore Idol sang a few songs, pleasing to the ear, and gives much of the V Day mood. I lied on Dear's shoulders and listened to the relaxing tunes, the dedications were also very nice and sweet.

Home Sweet Home after that, his home actually, went to lalaland quite fast this time. It was a great day, thank you Dear for everything.

Just came back from booking our KL trip, with Yl, Yh, Yk and Dalian. It was with Grassland, I would be leaving for my holidat the following Friday and be coming back on Tuesday. Have done some research on the place and I foresee myself buying lots and lots of stuff! Wheee!

Dental Appt n Job briefing tmr!

2009-02-12T17:03:00.001-08:00

Had a huge quarrel with my brother yesterday. We were yelling, not at the top of our voices, but still, such situation is the second from what I could recall, it was still sometime back. I was very hurt, so hurt that I could not stop crying. I was tearing even when I was complaining to Yanhong on MSN, still doing so when Dear reached home and we talked on the phone. Even just now.

Call me crybaby and whatsoever, I dont care, thats how I express myself. I hate people doubting my personality, to the core, especially people who are very close to me, Dear, my family, and my close friends. Anyway, He left a message for me before he went for work, which made me feel comforted.

Just a note for him, although I know he wont be reading this: I am very appreciative of what all have done for me, I guess it was just a misunderstanding, and we came to our senses only after we cool down. Thanks for the acknowledgement.

Hais.

It was nearly a perfect day.

Im gona blog about happier things now.

Went to work ytd! Sounds like its not entirely a happy thing, but I quite like it. It was a job offer by Eliz sister's fren. Met up with Eliz, her sister, Adelaide ytd and travel to Imedia's office at Buona Vista for our simple briefing. We were to put on our uniforms, and we were off to NUS distributing candies and cards. The event is all about promotion of a website. The job is quite rewarding, and fun too :D It is a two day job and from 11 to 3, and Im meeting the two teeny weeny sisters later. I told my company of friends the day before that I bet I would look like a giant beside them. Lol.

After work, met Dear, he came down to get me and then we travelled down to City Hall. Dear's dad gave him money to buy NUM's flip flops. okay, there's twenty percent off, so I was less discouraging. So he bought a blue pair of Prala slipper.

It was meant to be a trip to get me a camera. So we went to Funan IT Mall. I fell in love with Olympus mju 1040 once I saw it. The red one especially. Chio! I remember seeing it selling at a supposed-too-be lowest price on ebay, at 335. I saw it at 298 with free gifts, at South Asia Computer! (imagine of the Thifty King Ben Yeo and Quan Yifeng's little snips: WOWWW!) Haha. It was just the first shop we visited so I told Dear that I wanted to walk around.

After Challenger, and other stores, we decided that still to buy from South Asia, we were appreciative of the lady's service and we think the commission should be hers, Challenger's offering the same price to me with additional stuff cos of Chailing's membership, but nah, people with good service should be supported! Hehe. We were both in service line before mah.

So I bought this lovely thing.

Then we walked on, Dear bought a Nike polo shirt. And then we walked on, and then we both got matching Tees from Nike again. Haha. We were on the spending mood.

Dinner at Hotpot Culture! Love the golden mushroom, the Shabu shabu. We were too engrossed in eating to bother taking any pictures. The chocolate fondue was finished in no time. The price is 19.80 before GST, it was a restaurant recommended by The Thifty King, and Dear was pleading and pleading for us to visit that place since a decade ago. So, I decided to be nice. And got my tummy bigger. :/

So, the day was so so good, till the quarrel begun. Oh well, its over.

I was at town with goody friends Yh, Yl and Yk on Wednesday. We went shopping for awhile, and then dinner at Pepper Lunch. We started chatting and the next thing we found out, its already 10! Goodness. We hurried back home cos everyone's working the next day. Enjoyed the session :D

Tuesday, met up with darling Vic, at Orchard too. We had dinner at Pasta Cafe. Catching and catching but I dont think the time is enough to get each other updated. I miss that girl so much, the walking home together with Soya bean Icecream in hand. (: We took 174 back home tgt, and Hui Yee was on the bus all along, We dint realize it till Vic alighted and then I spotted her. We chatted for awhile and shared that we both missed playing Hockey. Ok,I will try my best in getting a day for all of us to meet up!

Pretty Vic!

Ok, its bout time for work.
Haha, so just nice, Summer just called to inform us to report later.
Whee. Lol.

Anyways, nothing else to blog about.
Cant wait for my suprise tmr!

Classic love song and one of Dear's fav, Trademark-Only Love, dedicated to my Dear and my friends,
Advanced Happy Valentines Day! I love you all!

2009-02-09T08:50:00.000-08:00

People would never be contented. They would never cherish what they are having in hand today, yearning for more. Would they only realize the need when lost. I mean, what would happen when the person you love, stopped loving you? What about the person who misses you, stopped missing you? Would you be any happier? :/ Detest people taking things for granted. Hate to say this, but the traitor is not always the one at fault.

It sucks even more when you are being upset and the culprit isnt aware of it. Grrrr. Or maybe that person just chose to ignore it. Cos you are so damn irritating.

Its hard, to have the need to say all your grievances without any listening ear. And you can only be so abstract on blogger!
Please come back, positive minded me. The Pisces personality is not doing me any good.

I came back to add on that I will be meeting Darling Vic tmr for dinner! Miss that girl!

2009-02-09T07:17:00.000-08:00

I've been lying around every corner of my house these days. I don utterly like this feeling of being so unproductive but somehow I'm still feeling the joy in it. Anyways, I still need to slack a little while longer.

Had driving lessons today. The car died lesser times today but still I feel that I've disrupted Bukit Batok's traffic in many many occasions. My instructor is soooooooo naggy. And I paid 39 dollars instead. Shitty. Thank God he forgot to collect enrolment fee from me. I wana get my license soon! Get a weekend car and go everywhere with Dear, the thought excites me. If only I had the money. Anyway, FTT is on 19 Feb, I wana get through it with just one attempt!

Dear's been very sweet. Suprising me with breakfast at my doorstep, just when I needed such love. Thanks.

V Day is round the corner, Im the planner this time. Although I really like what I've prepared, but still am unsure of whether company will like it. We shall see!

I wan a camera! To snap all our happy moments during his upcoming holiday!:D

2009-01-21T20:09:00.000-08:00

Finally found a driving instructor, his charges are not very cheap, at 26 dollar per hour, but I just dont want to browse further, anyway, flowerpodders commented that he is a good instructor, friendly and caring. Hopefully my first lesson with Mr Khoo will be a good experience, I dont want to be like others who face lousy instructors who screamed at them and dont gurantee them their license.

I need a job too. People around me are occupied with their jobs and so I've been lazing around these days. I love this feeling actually, but Dad keep nagging and nagging that I feel guilty to carry on with this lifestyle. But its so difficult to get a job these days, especially with the schedule I would like to offer. No weekends, no public holidays, only 4 days a week or less. Who would want to employ me sia. My brother say I should not have quit my job at the shoeshop. But in fact I dint regret at all.

CNY is round the corner. Spent alot in getting my new clothes. After reunion dinner with Mom last Sunday, me and Sis went to JP. I was supposed to accompany her to get her stuff, and yet I ended up with a few shopping bags. I'm still short of a necklace now, perhaps I have to visit JP later to get it done.

Threading too, and my manicured nails are ruined. So much to do.

Next entry would be on Reunion dinner.

2009-01-06T01:02:00.000-08:00

I PASSED MY BTT!

I reached bbdc quite late therefore i started leter than the rest. Many of them ended before me so I peeked at to their station. There is this girl who was dressed quite well and she gave me a feeling that she dint study, but she passed. I was quite envious then, but soon after, I knew that I managed to get through. :D Haha, at least I only take 2 tries! :P

So I waited for my PDL so that I could start my driving lessons, currently sourcing for a private driving instructor, so pls recommend me if you know any!

I then went to get my pay back at Famous Footwear. It was a little more than I expected, so I was rather glad. I dont miss that place, even though I hate being labelled jobless, I would rather stay this way than be there, I would only be back there if I'm really so desperate. The pay is good, just the thought of climbing up and down and shaky ladder. Dear called me a weakling. :/

A brand new year, known to be a good year for the horses, hopefully its true. Anyway, I was quite mad at the Singapore Flyer incident. Me and Dear's flight was supposed to be on 31/12, our anniversary, we booked it months ago, and so this bloddy thing happened, so unprofessional.

The day wasn't totally ruined actually, we watched Yes Man! Its a super hilarious show, I'm not really a movie reviewer but, I find it quite entertaining and interesting too, probably it should have improved on its plot. I dono, thats what others say, I find it good enough for my complimentary movie voucher from dad.

We had dinner at Breek's! The restaurant is so much improved from that time we went a year ago. The menu is having so much more variety compared to the past, and the food is very nice too! Thanks Dear for the meal.

We had buffalo wings for a starter, I had BBQ chicken with smoky BBQ sauce, Dear's Seafood Curry Rice and our shared dessert Brownie with Vanilla Ice Cream. Breeks serve very very good drinks too! City Hall soon got so crowded so we decided to skip the fireworks.

The countdown part was during our monopoly game. Both of us were at his place, playing monopoly, super boring with 2 players, but we were watching the countdown party too, ok, 1 year anniversary wasnt fantastic but I certainly love my company.

Oh, This was some of my gift to him. With them printed out and framed.

Lastly, Penang was absolutely great! Perhaps its been too long since I went abroad, Dad doesnt like that place, maybe because sis and me kept wanting to shop. I spent my 500 ringgit in no time, despite how cheap the stuff are. We went to visit several places of interest too, like the Sleeping Buddha and the Peranakan Mansion in which The Little Nyonya is flimed. Yes, many pple thought it was at Malacca but in fact 70% of the fliming took place in Palau Pinang. The 3 days were definately not enough for me, we have yet to visit the Toy Musuem and the Aquarium too. Haiz. Its ok, I will be back to Penang! Oi! I want my photos!

CNY soon! Time to buy more clothes! Haha!

2008-12-15T05:56:00.000-08:00

Its so long since I last blogged.

Have been a busy period for me, working at JP extension was tedious. It is at Famous Footwear, the climbing up the ladder and down made the job so undesirable, thought of quitting, but Alex managed to convince me in thinking twice. I shall see.

I have catched up with Valerie, Yijie and Chailing recently. It was supposed to be a karaoke session, I felt like I have thrown the money down the drain as we cant stop chatting, it have been quite some time since we updated each other.

This weekend was great, spent with Dear, going to Bugis for a shopping spree, and I spent a month's allowance in these 3 days. I love being with him. But we just parted an hour ago as he have to rush home to get ready for his flight at 12. ): He's only coming back on Monday. I may seem very kiddish but I really dont bear to part him for even these 7 days, the longest time we dint get to see each other for this year is only about 6 days. My sis laughed at me for crying over this. Ok, I will grow up soon.

Anyways, I will work hard this week to earn more commission, and hopefully time pass faster. I can't wait for 24th December to arrive, and we will all be leaving for Penang for holiday! Yahoo!

2008-11-29T19:37:00.000-08:00

I feel like I'm drowning in my fats. Haha. Adapted from Vic.

Wednesday went waxing with Dear! Haha. Its hand wax this time. At a little stall in Compass point. The damage was pretty bad, at $22, but I really like it alot! Thanks Dear.

Met up with Yanli, Yanhong, Yukai and Dalian on thurs. Went to Bugis for karaoke. It was quite a good deal at $16 nett for singing from 11-6. We also got the bento set at $3 only for lunch in the premises. We had so much fun playing with all the lighting effects. After that, went to check out packages for our overseas trip, to HK, it is still unconfirmed though. Lastly dinner was at a Teochew porridge shophouse at Tiong Bahru. They love it!

Friday was Wild Wild Wet with Dear. We spent the whole weekend at Downtowneast so as to finish using our tickets we won from the Foodchase. I was so busy trying to hide my tyres ): I guess I really need to lose weight. Applied lots of tanning oil and just as we exposed ourselves to the sun, it went away. :/ It is always the case, the other time we went Sentosa to tan, it rained. Tsk! Anyways, we enjoyed ourselves. I like the slides alot.

We Escaped on Saturday, after ignoring him the night before as Im so exhausted. He won me a mouse and a snake soft toys at the carnival tent. They are useless but it was for the fun of the games. We would have gone on the ride on the Go Kart if only the queue wasnt so long. We got bored after awhile and left the East soon after that. Oh yah, we saw Alex the Lion and the penguins from Madagasca, super cute! And it was so burning hot yst, the sun was so glaring, should have been at WWW then, damn it!

Dinner at Kushinbo again! It was the Last minute feast, although it was just an hour of dining, we made full use of the time, felt like vomiting after that, I shouldnt have gobbled down everything I see.

Anyways, work will start soon, probably tmr. At JP extension, a footwear shop, hopefully the job could help me trim down.

The chinese zodiac guide told me the horses would have a good year ahead of us, just that we should take care of our health. Cheers!

2008-11-24T03:01:00.000-08:00

Today is such a bad day, woke up early in the morning and this already spoils my mood for the entire day. Rushed to BBDC to be in time for my Basic Theory Test, failed it and realised that the next possible date is 6/1 next year. Shitty. The worse thing is, I find 49 out of 50 of my questions answered correctly. It really sucks when you think you have done well and yet failed.

The suayness have yet to end. The strap of my bucket bag snapped. What's worse. Dr told me that I have to extract teeth today when I went for dental appointment. I was all by myself, Dear couldnt accompany me to dental today cos he had to attend school. I was all by myself waiting for my turn to extract 2 of my teeth and I know it was going to be so painful. Although Dear's messages kept me distracted from the torture I have to go through a while later, I still felt terrible.

The extractions went smoothly as I got a male doctor and he probably had more strength to pull out my tooth at one attempt. The wounds bleed for quite some time. The next appointment is on 31/12/08. Great. That's my only option. And its our anniversary, and New Year's Eve as well, and I'm going to dental appointment.

Okay, so much for a bad day. Hopefully everything will be alright for the rest of the day.

The weekends was less exciting. Stayed throughout at Dear's place. Friday, went shopping! Bugis and Orchard. Pretty tiring but I brought many shopping bags home, Satisfying! It made me feel like I should get a job fast!

Saturday did nothing much but slack around and I went to collect my masks. Bought $30 worth of masks from Sg Fashionista. They provide the cheapest masks online. You may get the link from my navigation on the left. It is handled by a couple. I must say, the girl is very pretty! She made me feel like I could be as pretty as her after I used the masks. Haha.

Beverly Hills Chihuahua @ Cathay! Excellent! 5 out of 5 I would say. Duper cute! The film took us about 2.5 hours but yet it feels like jus half an hour. Dear needed the toilet from the start of the show, but he endured till it was over! Haha, that is how exciting a movie could be. It reminds me of 101 Dalmations, some baddie is there to steal the Chihuahua which is worthy of it. Okay, enough of spoilers, watch it for yourself!

Sunday, slacked and masked at Dear's place. I fell asleep while putting on the mask, woke up 35 minutes later and found the mask dried up. It was initially rather wet, guess I absorbed all the nutrients already, making the 85cents so worthwhile. Dinner with his family at Muthu's Curry. It was the outlet at Farrer Park. To be specific, it was near Little India. So you can picture how we are surrounded by lots and lots of blacks. Im not racist but I really cant stand how they cross the roads, without looking out for vehicles. Anyways, dinner at Muthu's Curry was not as bad as I expected. The Fish Head Curry was yummy, as well as some other stuff which I dont know the names. Dear asked me if I would like to go back again, I said I would return to the Suntec Outlet to avoid the gatherings I always witness back in Boon Lay.

On a lighter note, Dear and I won yet another contest. It was from Downtown East. Threw in our participation coupons there, with not much expectation of winning, and yet we each won a $10 Pastamania Voucher! Call us aunties if you like, but I consider this as resourceful and thifty! Haha. Try contesting and you will find winning so satisfying!

Tmr will be a better day!

2008-11-19T01:51:00.000-08:00

Woke up early at 7.30 this morning, took my time to prepare for the meetup with Theresa for our Brazillian Wax, Mani n Pedi session. We are quite bold, its our first time though, and quite scared of the pain we had to bare to go through the waxing. But we still decided to do it as we promised each other before the As, as we both prefer a clean South region. Good thing the home-based salon is only at Taman Jurong, next to JSS, so we got our way there easily.

The lady who did the service for us looks great. She's already a mum but yet she's slim and healthy-looking. Both Theresa and I were envious of her nice tan and slim figure. Anyways, Shirley, the manicurist cum waxer (sry, I'm not sure what exactly is the profession), did the waxing for me. I'm not going to go into detail as it is quite embarassing, but what I can say, it is that, it is PAINFUL! Not as exaggerating as how others illustrate it, but it is still hurts a little. Initially, the thought of stripping in front of someone I don't know, and allowing her to touch my nether regions, is kind of paiseh, but it is really no biggie, thinking how many of these private parts she have seen before. The only thing which will prevent me from going again would be the pain I guess. Still, I'm not regreting on this decision and I would encourage all ladies I know to try it, I feel more womanly now, after I tried Brazillian Wax, more comfortable as well.

Next would be our Classic Manicure and Pedicure session. Theresa chose Maroon while I decided to take up French. The process was quite fun when you see all your dead skin flying out as she used the file on your feet. She would also remove all cuticles and clean your feet and hands inside out for you. But the salt she used to clean our feet was so ticklish that I kept giggling non stop, couldn't believe Theresa found it shiok -.- I find Shirley very professional as she is carefully concentrating in getting our nails done despite all the distraction from our chit-chatting. Both Theresa and I love her service and would recommend her to our friends for the excellent nails done and cheap rates of cos.

We took up the November offer which consists of 2 Classic Manicure & Pedicure, with free 8 Nail Art, and 2 Brazillian Wax, all just for $120! We paid only $60 per person! Theresa also trimmed her brows for only $5! Anyone keen would have to go earlier! Bcos she is increasing the rates from 1st Dec! Click the link below to go to her site!

Rushed off to meet Dear after that. So sorry that I was so late. We had to cancel off our Buffet Lunch at Window in the Park @ Holiday Inn due to that. Went an eatery at Centrepoint to settle lunch instead.

After that was my interview at Concorde Hotel & Shopping Mall. It was for a shoe shop opening soon at JP's extension. The shop is retailing on casual footwear such as Van's and Clarke's. Most likely I'm taking up the job offer as it is near to where I'm residing, so that I could wake up later. It is quite tormenting to wake up early to work, which I experienced when I worked for Subway then. But Dear's doubting the employer, he found him quite fussy, by questioning so much. Anyways, I just want to get a job to pass time and support my heavy expenses.

We went The Cathay to buy our tickets for our movie on Saturday, using our free vouchers received from the Food Chase. You may find us kiasu but really, you can't get a good seat if you buy tickets on the day itself. The movie is so highly anticipated by us, after watching the trailer. Pls, take a look at the trailer of Beverly Hills Chihuahua! You will fall in love with those dogs!

It's 7 O'clock! Time for Ten Brothers!

It was kind of boring staying at home, no activities scheduled for today, so I came up with my own. Decided to do some baking. Took up some receipes online and did my own cupcakes! I had no high expectations this time as I had failed several times before that. But this time it turned out ok..

They were huge upon removing from the oven, but shrunk again after that -.- should have used self-raising flour. They taste alright, just that the bottom is a little charred. It would be even better if someone would be baking with me. Missing those times with Vic when we baked stuff for our loved ones for Valentines's. ):

Anyways, can't wait for the favourite show later. They are gonna find out that the two baddies are part of the Ten Brothers! :D

The weekends went by pretty fast for me, because I really enjoyed the it. (:

Went for a few interviews on Friday, they were pretty dissapointing though, a one at Upper Thomson got me in Dear drowning in our perspiration 'cos the weather was quite bad, and we took quite some time to locate the place as it was very wulu. It was an interview for SENTIMENTS, a boutique outlet i never heard of, but the payback wasn't enticing, I sort of rejected the job offer by my usual 'I will get back to you', and I really wanted to get out of the conference room as fast as possible cos the interviewer had really bad breath. We head off to Orchard after Upper Thomson to get some things done.

This monkey caught our eyes as we were waiting for the bus. Its quite fascinating to see swinging monkeys in the urbanized Singapore, I got pretty excited then.

The excitement got even tenser when we reached Orchard. I kept spending and spending, without a thought, likely because its been some time since I last splurged. Bought 2 dresses and 2 pairs of shoes. Glad Dear stopped me from buying some stuff due to impulse. Anyways, the next stop would be Raffles Place for yet another interview. It was as disappointing bcos the payback was exactly as bad, and the boutique I would be serving for if I were to take up the job was in a rather isolated corner in an isolated shopping mall, restricting the amount of commission I am able to achieve, so I rejected in the same way. Dear said I'm fussy, which I feel the same way, somehow the good deals I got from my previous jobs made me this way.

Dinner was at Mushroom Pot @ Millenia Walk. Dear didn't like the set meal deal as it was not very filling. Nonetheless, we still ordered it so that we could use our 1-for-1 voucher I received from buying Women's Weekly. The soup base was pretty yummy, I think it would be perfect if we had more food. Probably we would turn up again.

The sleepover was for Friday and Saturday. Accompanied Dear to watch Man Utd match with Stoke. It was the first match I stayed awake throughout! What an achievement! Simply 'cos the match was pretty exciting, got my adrenaline rushing, especially the goal by the 17-year-old black who I forgotten the name. The score of 5-0 was the result of Man Utd's outstanding performance.

Saturday was a visit to the Asia Pacific Food Expo!

The place was so crowded, but it was worth the go as we got lots of sampling! Hehe! Dear longed for Dodo but this time, they wasn't one of the exhibitors, so we had a miss with their duper nice fried fishcakes. We enjoyed the honey chicken chop and the Apple Strudel though. Next door was Croc's sale and MPH sale, but the long long long queue stopped us from dropping by.

We head to Compass point to get our ingredients for our Marinara. Ok, we admit we are gluttons, it was just after a Food Expo that we did that.

Chef Clement Part 2

Me, my messy hair and our masterpiece!

We made it like candlelit dinner, trying to be romantic. Changed after that 'cos it wasn't very practical, can't watch tv that way. The marinara was pretty rich in flavour, perhaps we could add water to the Prego sauce next time.

Went rebonding at a Tampines Homebased Salon on Sunday. Winnie was the friendly hairdresser who did my hair and did it very well. I requested for Shiseido Soft Rebonding with Free O3 Treatment. The effect was similar to normal rebonding at Auntie Xiuzhen's. But the damage was bad, at $120. The pros are that I got a comfy seat and I don't need to blowdry my hair myself. Winnie is a duper nice working mother and I enjoyed chatting with her, we talked about almost everything under the sun, including her childbirth process. I was so influenced not to have children after that. Anyways, the result was...

Pretty good, you agree? No more fizzy hair and Dear, that is no hay! -.-

That was during Dear's soccer training so went to meet him after that. Seoul Garden was our dinner, using the complimentary vouchers I got from winning a magazine contest. 6 more vouchers left to be enjoyed with my family!

We were like hungry ghosts, as dinner was only our 2nd meal that day, prior to our Macdonalds' breakfast. The food was great! He sent me home, I ended the great weekend with a peck on his cheek, grateful for the perfect time spent.

Went JE today to get my eyebrows trimmed, looking more presentable now, I feel like I could get a good enough job. Going for an interview on wednesday for a JP Footwear shop, hopefully it will be smooth. Buffet Lunch at Holiday Inn booked on wednesday! Waxing, Mani n Pedi session with Theresa too on wednesday. So looking forward to it!

lastly, its Phyllis birthday today!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO PHYLLIS~! :D

HELLO HOLIDAYS

2008-11-13T06:31:00.000-08:00

I can't believe its over! JC life came and go in a blink of the eye, it feels like a dream, not really a bad one but it was quite tedious. My fingers are sore after the History paper today, it was not exactly done very well but I guess from how much effort I've put in, I shouldnt expect much. Anyways, I shall forget about how badly my Math and Geography papers are done or worry about whether I am able to get into university and focus on my post A lvl celebration instead!

My aspiration for my new blog would be to post my entries in proper english, proper sentences, I could predict how bad my languaage would be after this long holiday break.

Paint the town = Enjoyment

and this is what I'm going to do for the next few months!

The to-do list

Getting my hideous eyebrows trimmed
Manicure + Pedicure + Waxing with Theresa
Rebonding
Indulging in all the TVB shows
Revamping my wardrobe
Get a job
Take part in even more contests to win more freebies!
Use all the vouchers with Dear
Meeting up with my friends more often
Lose weight
Shopping!
Spend more time with Dear

The list goes on and on. Im getting all so excited! The break came just in time for me to revitalise and charge after the tiring battle.

Went out with my dearest Theresa just now, after our final paper. Went to Auntie Xiuzhen to get her hair dyed at only $30. The home based salon may not be the most comfy place to get your hair done but it is definately the most economical. Dinner at JP Billy Bombers after that.

Meeting up with dear and spending the day out tmr, for some job interviews and just spending time together, I miss him, even though it was only sunday when I last saw him, this week seemed so long yet so short.

Holidays! Here I come!
