THE LANGUAGE OF JER UNDEFINED; APPREHAND THE UNSPOKEN

Inner thoughts

2011-05-01T14:45:00.004+08:00

This is gonna be somewhat sappy but hey, a blog is to pen down my inner most feelings, ain't it?
I seem rather unhappy on the inside lately.
Everything else on the superficial seems just fairly superficial.
Maybe Im losing the meaning to life.
Or maybe I really need a much deserved holiday to pamper myself.

Maybe Im just disatisfied that Im spending my much deserved long weekend typically rotting at home - ALONE, when I could have spent it elsewhere enjoying life.

He was very free during the past 2 weeks, typically just bumming around, getting ready to start a new work environment come May.
So I asked him to organise sth, like plan for a short get-away trip or cruise or anything along that line, for the long weekends.
Cos I knew I was so looking forward to that well-deserved get-away.
I spoon-fed him with ideas to get some light.
But...
When the long weekend arrived, nth was planned.
Okay, fine.
I'vegotnothingtosay.

I feel that I must always be the initiator in the planning.
Perhaps im just sick of planning already.
When I suggest doing sth impromptu, I get a drenched blanket thrown over me.

I guess the root cause of this problem with myself is Dependency.
I once heard "Dependency is slavery by mutual agreement"
I always reserve all my weekends for him so much so that once he's unable to spend his weekends with me, I'd be left cast away.
So now, Imma just plan things for myself first, and whatever that comes after that, will be played by ear.
If no one knows how to please me, Im just gonna have to do it myself.
Well, at least ive learnt that that's how life works.

Pry open the unhealed wound

2011-03-29T23:34:00.002+08:00

Each time that song plays in the background, I sink through. Each time I watch a similar scene, it pierces through. The appearance is all a facade. The trust is gone forever. I'm like a novel without words. I dont want others to read me. Because no one completes me.

What and how exactly is going overboard?

2010-12-12T14:53:00.002+08:00

Our company had organized this annual Xmas Party bash at The Arena, Clark Quay on thurs.
There was lots of booze, which comes along with many ~~semi-~~ drunk colleagues and of course, the dance floor.

All these factors result in lack of self control, losing oneselves.

Honestly, these kind of corporate functions are the most inappropriate to engage in 'silly things' that might just cause negative and unnecessary embarrassment in the office.

Knowing your borders to your own limits, exercising self-control are what makes us humans different from animals.

I always believe that no matter how drunk you appear, a person is still 30% sober, unless you completely let yourself lose.

So dont lose it, be it guys or girls, know your limits, because you will only end up at the losing end.

On a different note, I'm always so amazed of how fate brings ppl tgt.
Coincidence or fate? Sometimes I cant tell the diff. Their similarities are too uncanny and difficult to diffrentiate.

Work has drained me away

2010-11-20T15:28:00.003+08:00

I always had this thinking that after I start working, I'd be a lifeless soul.
Cos work will and has taken away a large part of me.
I became quite immensed in work almost OT-ing everyday.
The workload has always been stressful, face-paced and almost suffocating me.
Everyday is a new steep learning curve.

I like my job and get along very well with my fellow colleagues, not only from my dept but other depts as well.
I always try to make it a point to stike a proper work-life balance and stop complaining that Im tired.
But sadly, the truth is written all over my face.
More often than not, I'd be thinking of work even after work, and even during weekends.

Still, I dont regret working in this fast-paced foreign bank.
The knowledge I have learnt from this MNC can/will never be taken away from me for life.
I believe this set of knowledge will bring me far in my career path.

Jia You, Jernice!

I know that we can all be friends....Can we?

2010-09-25T15:05:00.006+08:00

Im one of those who are grateful and appreciative to a few closer friends, than one who is all out to please everyone else.

A friend mentioned this before ,"Those who are your real true friends will not misunderstand your words or intention. Becos they know what kind of a person you are and will understand you in whatever circumstance."

I now truelyunderstand this knowledge.

It's really easy to make friends.
But it's more difficult to keep friends close to you.
Apart from similar characters or interest, close friends must have that mutual understanding to remain as friends.

Friends do squibble and in turn fall out with each other at times.
But true friends will let bygones be bygones and move on to the nxt phase thru understanding and accomodation.
Constant and occasional meet-ups and catching up sessions also strengthen bonds between the human kind.

There are certain things I will share with closer friends which I will not share with a not-so-close friends.
With my close friends, I feel comfortable to talk about anything and everything, and even pouring out my grievences.

I remember some time last yr when my family dealt with a mishap, the ppl I told my prob to, are those whom I know will stand by me and will not look down on me.
(You know who you are, and Im really thankful for standing by me, comforting me, during those trying periods)

Those are the close friends whom I will understand their plight if they mention that they are busy with work thus unable to meet for dinner.
And I always make it a point to meet for friends birthdays as it is a joyous gathering, catching up session and a simple reason to meet after soooo long.

I realise that as we grow up into the working society, we grow to understand more things and ppl, thus bringing us to a level where we grow out of the immaturity stage during our teenage light years.
How we perceive ppl or ppl's actions are also clearer as our mindset changes.

And now, I've become clearer and more bent on filtering out closer friends and those not-so-close friends.
Beocs I know that my close friends will not say/do things that hurt me.
They will understand me and will love me for who I am, vice versa.

Not-so-close friends are those whom I still will have catching up sessions with them, but will take a step back in revealing confidential stuff and stuff that im not comfortable in revealing.

Question is: Is it an OBLIGATION to reveal sth to a not-so-close friend, when you are not even comfortable in revealing?
Does that "friend" have the RIGHT to feel offended in any way?
Is it silly for that no-so-close friend to kick up a big fuss about this, even when a disagreement happened YEARS ago?

Last question is: Is this "friend" even worth keeping in the first place?

Honestly, what goes thru my mind about this "friendship" is utter disappointment, imaturity, over-sensitivity, an absolute lack of EQ and no respect to me.

Notice how I use the inverted commas (".......") above when I mentioned "friend"/"friendship".
Is/Are "friend/friendship" supposed to be like this?

My final note is: You need a life and start growing up. Start reflecting on your actions and quit acting like the world owes you something. Start thinking for ppl and stop living in your own world full of yourself. Begin to forgive and forget, let bygones be bygones.
Stop saying spiteful and hurtful words to friends whom you really treasure, before they all run away from you. Start giving and stop being always at the receiving end.

"He who forgives and forgets gain more in return than those who live a life full of grudges and regrets"

Frankly to me, more or less of one of such friends are no loss to me.
Cos with those few close friends, I feel as if I've got the whole world.
Im contented with just a number of close friends and dont expect any reciprocation from them.

Im glad Im gonna meet my close friends for a round of crab later for a belated bday celeb!
It doesnt have to be a posh, atas place to have a gathering.
What you need are close friends company and good food, comes along lots of laughter and gossips!

If you are not guilty, you will not be afraid of what ppl will say behind your back.
Your true friends will stand by you, understand you and accept you as a whole.
If your conscience is bugging you, beware.
Slowly one by one, all your supposedly "close friends" will be tired of giving and will soon disappear from you. As a result, you will be all lonely on joyous occasions.

That's one of a lengthy word essay.
But I was just letting out some of my thoughts.

And to my true close friends, I really appreciate the mutual understanding we share, the affinity and the accomodation between us.
The mutual respect we have for each other has brought us to a higher level of maturity.
And we will all continue to grow tgt.
Im very happy to know that as I let go of sth, I gain more things in return.
And it's becos of lost friendship that made me reflect and appreciate/rejoyce even more of what I have, than what I have lost.

Life is short, so I'll treasure what I have before me with true sincerity.
Hope you have learnt sth useful!

Time to hit the bathroom!!

Definitely not a gamer

2010-09-21T15:49:00.004+08:00

Within these 2 weeks of recuperating at home, bro bought me a Mario game.

"If you cant use your legs, you still can use your hands....WIIIIII"

Right, so Mario Galaxy 2 was my companion.

What makes this game so different is that its graphics are all in 3D and most likely you will get giddy after half an hour of playing cos most of the time you will be suffering from parellex error.

Furthermore, Mario is able to go literally upside down in this game.

I dont know why but I just got a thing for Mario and Sonic games (though I really suck at games).

These childhood games are one of the best games till date.

Back to work tmr!
Feeling all refreshed though foot still hurts a bit.
No more heels for the time being. Booo!

Swollen beyond recognition

2010-09-17T16:33:00.004+08:00

Was supposedly back to work yst (thurs) for me after the long MC taken since last thurs, 9th.

From hospitals to GP reviews to more GP follow ups..

Finally first day back at work yst.

Dad drove me to work.

Came home looking like this:

My manager said,"Aiyoo..u still limping?! Faster go home!"

My right foot has my shoe mark cos the whole day I felt the right side of the shoe was much tighter than before.

After showering, applied some cream to make the swelling subside.
Removed my plaster as well.
Wound is more or less dried alr.

But more medicine for me. Booooo!

He asked," Why your leg so swollen you still go to work?"
Doc gave me MC till nxt tue. Sigh.
He told me to stay home and not walk around.
There goes another depressing weekend ahead.
It's gonna be 2 weeks since this accident happened.
I want my healthy foot back!!

Workplace hazzard

2010-09-11T17:27:00.002+08:00

It was a 4day work week since Hari Raya falls on a Fri.

All my colleagues were in a festive holiday mood.

I myself had plans after work for many places.

Then just a few hours before knock-off, a "tragedy" happened.

And I landed in hospital.

My colleague and I was sending a candidate out to our main door.

So we were walking along a narrow corridor.

Then my colleague who was walking in front of me, smashed her head into a jut-out false wall, took a step back, and this was where her 4inch high heels pierced through my foot.

Her head was seemingly fine despite that hard knock.

But that contusion made me rooted to the ground as the pain was so intensive and servere.

I wanted to collapse on the floor but knowing that the candidate was still around, I told my colleague to send him out first.

Only after they walked away, I collapsed on the floor in the middle of the corridor with my 4 inch heels.

As embarassing as it is, I started crying cos I really couldnt walk nor stand at all.

The moment my right foot had contact with the floor, I would have to lift it up.

They were worried that i might have a hairline crack on my bone or sth, so I was being sent to a hospital after work to have xray done and got my wound dressed.

It was an eventful day and was so upset that this might actually leave an ugly scar on my foot.

It was also the first time visiting a hospital's A&E, and definitely my first sitting on a wheelchair.

The wound was quite superficial but the heel cut was quite deep in

But the painful part was the walking.

Doc said that I coulnt walk due to the damage in the tissues in the muscles.

This means that I wouldnt be able to walk for a week.

There goes my weekend plans.

And I had to visit a GP on mon for a review and to change my dressing.

I realise that we take most things for granted.

Especially things that came naturally to us, such as walking.

But now I really appreciate my arms and legs and everything about myself.

Happy hols everyone.

Hope u all had a good weekend.

My 23rd (Part 2)

2010-08-28T00:52:00.004+08:00

I received a huge bouquet of my favourite lillies when Teddy arrived at my house.

Initial plan was to have a cable car ride and dine at Jewel Box @ Mt Faber.

But we cancelled the reservation at Jewel Box cos of the rain which dampened my mood, and settled for some Jap restaurant instead.
It was freezing cos it has been raining the entire day.

When I got home, mom got me this rich chocolate cake.

Though the day felt like any other day, the most impt part to me are the people spending it with you.

I truely feel blessed.

Next post coming up will be my conferment ar SIM-RMIT.

Stay tuned!

2010-08-23T14:32:00.002+08:00

Tried out some new photography apps on my iphone.

And this are the results:

Portrait

Pencil airbrushSepia (Night mode)

Soft Mode

And lastly, vibrant.

I also tried out some new falsies for fun on Sat.

I dont wear falsies, but since its so cheap, I decided to get one for fun.

I mean, that's what girls do right?

Anyway, my weekend has been a blast!

From Fri, it was a pre-bday celeb with Val and KN. (Pics updated in FB)

Sat was at e movies for Step Up 3.

Sun was just random shopping.

And come today, MY DAY!

When I woke up this morning, I had 20 over msges in my inbox.

All the bday wishes and blessings were really sweet and personal.

So, thanks to each and every one of you!

Last yr was a turmulous yr for my family and I.

This yr, all I wish for is peace and happiness.

Tonight will be at a special dinner with the Teddy.

No idea where I'll be gg since it's a surprise.

But no matter where we are, as long as it's with u, I'll be the happiest person.

Yippie!

Pre-Bday celebration dinner

2010-08-22T15:21:00.003+08:00

WARNING: Mushy post coming right up!

Food For Thought

Making a wish on the cutest mango cake!

The Chalkboard in FFT.

I cannot emphasis how much I truely enjoyed myself the entire night.

From the dinner, to the gossips/catching up and to the Starbucks chillin' session.

I felt really blessed from the bottom of my heart to have such great friends around me.

As I looked through the pics Val upoaded into FB, I just couldnt wipe that huge grin off my face.

It just a very warm feeling.

To my friends,

I love anything that u all give me!

Be it bday well wishes or lil presents, they all brighten up my day!

Thank You all so much! =)

Tmr's gonna be MY day, ALL DAY LONG!
Yippie!

The much raved about..iphone 4

2010-08-17T22:30:00.002+08:00

Finally collected my iphone 4 today after work.
Suddenly no more adrenaline.
Was quite lucky cos I got this iphone for free; my aunt recontracted her plan and has an additional 100bucks off.
Gonna get my sim card changed tmr and gonna be glued to e phone all day!

I'm super excited to meet Val and KN this fri for my pre-bday dinner.
And meeting up with mich, sandra, carol and nana nxt sat as well.
It's been so long since we last met and I'm glad that they took time off for a simple fare.

Friends come and go countless times in our lives, I've therefore concluded that those who really care for you will stand by you at all times.
I'm glad I'm remembered by friends like them.
So I'd always rmb those who spent my bday with me and I'll definitely reciprocate with appreciation.

Thank you all! Loves.

2010-08-15T22:44:00.004+08:00

I asked my maid to whip up maggie mee for my dinner tonight.
And she gave me this: (pic taken from the net)

Can someone pls tell me not to get furious?

At least the maggie mee should have a few stalks of veg and egg right???

Not totally plain like that?!

Laugh or cry, I dunno.

Another 1 more yr of misery to go.

The Pre-Birthday gift

2010-08-08T23:12:00.003+08:00

My dad, mom and Teddy pooled tgt to get me this sweeeeet LV baby.
The damage was over $2k, but looking at it's excellent workmanship and "solid" material, it's definitely worth every cent.
This colour for this range is seasonal, and I got the last piece said in Ion. (Lucky me!)
I'm glad this comes in limited ed so that i wont see thousands of ppl carrying the same bag as i strut down town.

I really appreciate all the presents I receive regardless of its price tag.
I really liked this bag but didnt really expect to get it as a gift, since I told myself that the nxt luxury item I'd get, will be outta my own pocket.
Of course, receiving it as a gift is an absolute bonus.

What's more impt to me is spending my birthday with close friends and family, who bothers to rmb my bday and actually spending it with me, be it belated or pre.
No need for atas restaurants, no need for expensive presents.
Though I dont show it out, just the presence alone makes me feel warm in my heart.

Dedicated to Teddy, dad and mom,
Thank you for the special pressie once again.

The Rabbit from Cambodia

2010-08-03T21:21:00.002+08:00

I've yet to give my new rabbit a name.
It's a handmade patch-work plushie from a colleague.
She got it from Cambodia.

I love it's pink fluffy nose and whiskers!

Dont you find it cute too?

2010-07-18T15:05:00.002+08:00

Friday @ Vivo

Sat @ Esplanade for Sachoom; a Korean Dancical

I love this surprise tt Teddy gave me.

More than $100 for the tix, but it was money well spent.

Totally enjoyed the dancical!

It was fun and entertaining!

Was really impressed with the whole theme and their choreography.

More to come!

SPRUCE-D & Flying chillis

2010-07-04T12:03:00.004+08:00

Flying Chillis Thai Restaurant @ 313

Standing at the oh-so long queue

But the queue was worth it.

Good food at a price.

Shit I feel my face getting fatter!

Last week, was at SPRUCE with Teddy's JC friends.

A very friendly and fun-loving lot!

Was supposed to lunch there, but since we met up late, only pastry and desserts are available.

The pastries were delightful.

We ordered almost all that was on the menu.

And finished up all of them, except for a mega huge choco cake.

Guess we were too intoxicated with sugar by that time.

Today's dinner is at Seafood Paradise @ The Singapore Flyer.

I cant wait for more good food!

Happy Teddy Day

2010-06-20T15:27:00.005+08:00

18 June 2010

Hand made card by me.

OK stop laughing at my juvenile art work.

It's the thought that counts aight!

Sweet nothings for the Rat
End notations

The sweetest, juciest nails ever.

Ok I admit I was tempted by the yummy jelly bean nail vacances by Ettusais.

I intended to get only one to try.

But ended up getting 3.

No doubt, not regretting it!

Looks like I paid to do nail art!

Love the pink and glitters.

The pics sure dont do justice.

Feel like eating my fingers now.

Mmmmmm..candy!

Jelly Bean toes with pink glitter.

Close up

Got Teddy 2 watches for his birthday which set my finances back by quite a bit.

One is a Seiko Limited Ed, Glossy black/ Rose gold watch.

The other is an Andrea Christie, Glossy brown/rose gold.

Was still contemplating which one to get him when these 2 watches were shortlisted.

So heck la, just get both since both also so nice.

We tried Shin Kushiya at Suntec for dinner.

Nice ambience/setting.

Most importantly is the company.

Why do weekends always pass so quickly?

Happenings Overdue...

2010-06-20T15:11:00.003+08:00

10 June, Val invited KN and I to Ernst and Young's Movie Night event.

Where we were treated to the premier of The Karate Kid.

Totally beyond my expectations, the movie was a success!

Loved the movie so much, I wouldnt mind watching it again!

Last Sat, got my haircut @York Hotel.

Yst, had a mini family house gathering at my place.
Mostly my dad's side of the family came over.
Was mad bored.

Bought 20 cheesecake cups fully hand made by my guy colleage, for my mom's family.

Looks so sweet and irresistable...drools.

The week at its best

2010-06-06T00:57:00.003+08:00

Sandra brought all of us to this really good western restaurant, i never knew exist.
I swear that was the BEST of the BEST western food I ever had.

And there's the sweet birthday girl, Mich.

And then, before we know it, the week has come to an end.

But there's another exciting week ahead!

Cheerios!

Once Upon a Fortnight...

2010-06-06T00:45:00.003+08:00

I'm always at my happiest when I have programs after work, though I get dead tired.
But this makes me look forward to the end of the day.
This time was at Park Mall's Sakae.

I've no idea what KN is doing in the background, cos she's supposed to be IN the photos.

Haha!

But nice one KN!

Your face very flexible, I LIKE!

Japan Goodies

2010-06-06T00:25:00.002+08:00

Daddy got me some goodies from Japan, Osaka.
Some cosmetics/skincare from my all time fav brand, Ettusais, and IPSA.
Jap products always have nice packaging huh.

Daddy also got many Jap cookies, Royce chocs and tidbits!

That's IPSA's clay mask and Ettusais's makeup base.

Both highly raved products and are both very very gooooood!

Love is in the Air..

2010-05-30T12:44:00.003+08:00

Woke up early in the morning on a Sat to attend and witness a wedding solemnization ceremony held at the prestigious Fullerton Hotel.

The lunch meal was as good as a full dinner set.
And every single dish served was sumptuous.
Filled tummy max.

I truely bless this loving couple in their lives ahead.

I can tell that the groom really loves the bride unconditionally because of his courage to accept everything about his wife.

I call that TRUE LOVE.

SHREK in 3D

2010-05-23T15:07:00.002+08:00

We have been lamenting to catch a movie clip in 3D and finally we caught one yst at Vivo.
We were contemplating to either watch the 3D or the Gold Class.
Caught the 9+pm show, queued for a ridiculous 50mins before we got a seat to dine at Sushi Tei.
Business seems brisk, but food is prompt and good.

Funny how time flies over the yrs, and we start to live like one another.
I used to fancy cartoon clips, you used to hate it.
Now we're both loving cartoon movies.
Such an irony for adults.
But sometimes I think the world is ugly enough, so reliving the childhood side is a form of destress.
And it really works by watching cartoons. At least for me.
When I feel down, watching lots of cartoon (esp. those hilarious ones) will somehow take my troubles away.

Booked a table at a restaurant, and bringing Teddy's mummy and brother out for dinner tonight.

Hope the food's goooood!

Hope u all enjoyed yourselves over the weekend!

Cheeeeers!

TGIF

2010-05-16T02:09:00.002+08:00

Now that I've started working, I've learnt to appreciate Fridays and weekends even more.

Somehow these days I'm into pastel pink.

Went for company dinner on Wed and got a chance to wear my $140 royal purple bandage dress.

Got many compliments for that dress.

And thank god it only produced one piece, so i wont see no second person wearing that same dress as me. heh.

Maybe that explains value in the price.

I would say, fab satin material, great design/cutting, impressive details.

But I doubt I'd ever spend that kind of money getting such an extravagent piece of cloth.

I'd rather invest in bags.

Forgot to snap a pic in it so I'll prolly do it in the nxt post, or when I've the time.

I dont want weekdays to come so fast.

And I SO wanna try the Barcook Bakery's buns.

Saw really long queues for it at the Raffles branch every lunch hr and thot I shld give it a try one day.

Royce "Heavenly" Chips

2010-05-02T22:55:00.002+08:00

Went to CK Tangs to get a new foundation pack from IPSA.

Watched Nu Ren Wo Zui Da, and they highly recommended this foundation which is just plain amazing.

I hope it will be as good as raved cos I spent $63 just for the refill. (case sold seperately)

I didn't get the case cos I have a very pretty gold one.

I cant wait to finish using my current foundation and switch.

I just cant wait for the end results.

And I've finally recovered from my cough/cold.

YAY!

It was a good weekend well spent!

Looking forward to the nxt weekend already!

Drugged and feverish

2010-04-24T23:08:00.002+08:00

My immune system has taken a downhill ever since I started work.
Im not sure if its the "getting used to work life" or I got infected by my maid who was sick just 2 weeks ago.
I realise that I always get sick in the wrong time.
I get reasonable amount of rest during weekdays, apart from some OTs, so I guess I just got infected.

I hate to fall sick on a weekend.
I cant spend my weekend fruitfully.
Sigh, I need some serious sleep now.

Every man to himself

2010-04-21T22:24:00.002+08:00

It's human nature to be selfish.
But to what extent would you go while riding on ppl's misfortune?

Sad to say, Ive been out in the working world for merely over a month and I've seen some very ugly sights of human behaviour already.

My encounter was with a colleague's negligence, which resulted in my dismay of getting ticked off.
My first thought was to speak up, stand up for myself since I wasnt in the wrong.
But I didnt do just that and I held my horses.
I felt very uncomfortable knowingly I got told off by sth which wasnt even my fault in the first place.
Unfortunately, I was left to take all the blame unto my shoulders.

If I were to clarify things with my manager, it would seem like im trying to sow discord, defend myself or even push the blame to someone else.
But if I dont make it known to my manager, then she'll think that I was really in the wrong and that im imcompetent. Which will affect my status of being converted to a perm.

I've truely understood and felt the real meaning of plain selfishness.
I guess I've to accept that it's part of human nature.
Sometimes human nature scares me.
I hope there's justice in the world to save poor unjust ppl like me.

I guess that's part of the working work and its part of the growing up process to know and learn how to deal with these ppl.

A New Haircut

2010-04-18T22:28:00.002+08:00

Had a new haircut at D' Hair Salon at York Hotel.
It's gradient is more sloped, thus adding more volume to my hair.
It's pretty short but I like.

Another work week to conquer.
Jia You!

Bakerzin

2010-04-18T11:46:00.003+08:00

Recently I haven had time to myself, let alone have time to blog.
Work's been pretty hectic daily.
And when come weekends, I spend them outside to find back "my life".

I found the PURRRFECT lava cake from Bakerzin and we ate it twice in a row.
Warm Choco cakes really make me grin with joy with every single bite.
A pity I haven had the chance to snap a lovely pic of it, cos it was too fast to be savoured by us.
A pretty small portion, but its just nice cos it keeps you wanting to come back for more.

A dessert-deprived Teddy

I got so amuzed by Bakerzin stacked-up Macarons on their cake counters!

So colourful and so sweet looking.

I swear will die of diabetes just by looking at it in real life.

2 pyramids of stacked up Macarons some more!

Sure looks super enticing!

After work on Fri, I grabbed a lil bottle of mist from The Body Shop.

It's a New Arrival.

It's apple scented and absolutely sweet.

I like the Cherry Blossom one as well, but decided to get one first.

I was actually looking for a perfume in this size (30ml; to put in the office) but I cant really find one that I like.

Until KN told me bout Body Shop's sprays and mists, I thought why not give it a try.

Plus the price is really affordable and reasonable too.

Now I'll smell like sweet apple after lunch and gone those horrid smelling food smell.

2 rest days in a week is definitely not enough.

I want more rest days!

Boo, it's coming Mon already.

Happy Bunny Day

2010-04-03T01:33:00.003+08:00

This pic was taken on Thurs, at Ichiban Sushi, PS.

Im currently getting used to working life, which spells slping early and waking up early.

Somehow I felt like I lost my social life since I started working, cos my work place totally blocked MSN and external emails.

In any case, I don't even think I can utilize them even if I can due to the humongous workload that seems never ending.

I get sick listening to ang-mo(s) now. Cos I hear them everyday.

Oh well, celebrated mummy's belated birthday on Good Fri.

Our family is a crab party fan (I've no idea why, cos their service sucks)

We had to wait for more than an hour for our first dish to arrive.

Tell me bout it, we were all famished.

And the other table, a family of 5 actually complained twice and left cos they waited for almost 2hours and they have not served finish all the dishes.

I've been there plenty of times and besides the first time I was there, all the other times the dishes all took damn long to arrive.

I wonder how they were able to sustain their business.

To me, no matter how good your food is, ur customers must be able to taste it first.

So waiting too long is a big no no.

Ok I've caught the slpy bug.

Off to slp now.

Nighty world!

And Happy Bunny Day!

Contented with my current purchases

2010-03-29T22:27:00.004+08:00

Sat was my grandpa's 80th Birthday.
Was out for a family dinner but I was feeling awful throughout the entire day.
Throat was burning and I was feeling feverish and chilly.
Didn't have appetite to eat anything.

On Sun I was so excited to get my Burberry wallet.
Actually I wanted to get it only after getting my first pay cheque.
But I was afraid they'll have no more stock, cos I know this wallet has been out in stores for quite some time.
What attracted me to this wallet is the shiney gunmetal grey lining.

On Fri also spent $135 on the Aldo heels.

Now this wallet cost $550.

Broke shit already.

But that gives me motivation to work.

Work = Higher spending power

At least Im contented with my little buys despite the money spent.

Eh, but dont see tt I keep spending like nobody's business, cos I do save every month also ok.

Another week ahead!

Jia You everyone!

Aldo Shoes

2010-03-27T18:42:00.002+08:00

Yst after work, we shopped around town and decided to pamper myself.
Got this white Aldo wedge for $135 but it was worth the money cos its made of good quality leather.

Then, Im down with a burning throat.

Following after was slight fever.

I dont wanna take MC, cos i've only started work for barely a month.

But this feeling sucks.

Now everything doesnt taste good, and I feel chilly all the time.
I wanna be well again.

The start of working life

2010-03-22T20:59:00.002+08:00

So I've been to a week of work.
I admit actually it isn't as bad as I thought it was.
A standard 9-6 job, Mon-Fri.
Colleagues are alright (at this point of time).
Just that slping early and waking up early has never really been my thing.
So now I've to literally drag my feet to work.
I feel like I've lesser time left for myself at the end of the day.
After getting home after work, I get so tired that I just wanna eat, shower and slp.
My workplace doesnt allow access to FB or MSN.
So I feel like I've suddenly become a social moron.
There's endless paperwork to complete and non-stop meetings to attend to.
Maybe that's life.

That's when I start questioning myself:
I dont understand why must we all work 8-9hrs a day.
Y cant we just work 6hrs a day?
Y must we work 5-6days a week?
Y cant we have 2hrs lunch break?
Most importantly, is THIS gonna be MY LIFE for the REST OF MY LIFE?

BREAK OUT/ VIVAZ

2010-03-14T16:51:00.004+08:00

This was taken on Thurs, on my way to Raffles place to sign my contract.

Starting work on Mon. YAY!

On Sat, on our way to Esplanade and Suntec to grab my new hp.

Tried wearable blue eyeshadow.

Not overly ghastly, just perfect to suit my toga dress.

Esplanade Theatres- Break Out 2010

We drove the Camry again today.

Presenting my new chio hp!

Sony Ericsson Vivaz in Venus Red!

How it looks from the front
And how it looks behind.

I know I just got this hp, but now im in a dilemna whether to sell this pretty gadget.

It's not that it's not a good hp but ever since my LG Renoir, every other hp is not comparable to my LG anymore.

My expectation for phones have been vastly raised since I think that my LG phone is THE best hp to me.

So I told myself that the nxt hp I get MUST be better than the LG one.

Unfortunately, this Vivaz is pretty on the outside but functions wise was below my expection.

Maybe Im not used to it, or maybe my expectations were set too high for a hp, or maybe even due to resistance to change.

But now when I've a new hp, I feel like I cant bear to change to the new one.

I still feel my LG hp serves me best and is still THE best hp till date for me.

Still considering to sell the new chio one. Grr.

Hate this feeling.

Shopping Spreeeeeeeeee

2010-03-12T00:03:00.002+08:00

I went on a shopping spree today after I signed my contract.
Gonna start work on coming Mon, at a good company, good environment.
I cant wait!

Back to the shopping spree, my loot were mainly work clothes and cosmetic.
Spent a total of about $150 today!

And tmr I'll be heading down to the IT fair to grab a new hp!
YIPPIE! I know I just changed my hp not long ago, but it's really hard to resist the fabulous price offers they have! Super cheap!

It seems like an impulse buy cos I never mentioned to change hp.
Its not that I dont like my current hp.
Actually I cant bear to sell my current LG cos it serves me SO DAMN WELL.
But ppl always long for newer, better looking things right?
Haha!

New chio hp coming right up!
Will blog bout which hp I changed to nxt, stay tuned!

Insomnia got the better of me

2010-03-09T03:48:00.004+08:00

I couldn't get to slp throughout the entire night.
Tried all sort of ways to put myself to slp but my mind just cant stop thinking...of absolutely random stuff!
Must be the stupid potent tea I drank, kept me WIDE awake.
Only managed to catch a 4 hour wink around late morning-noon.
Woke up, ate lunch and drove over (alone) to pick Teddy up from his house.
(Yes, I can drive alone now! To such far distance some more, no more supervision!)
After picking him, drove over to Tampines IKEA.
Ate dinner there. I swear by their Swedish meatballs and Chicken wings! (damn im drooling now! Aren't you?!)
Got some bathroom organizers and a soft pillow home.
Then drove home from there.

Actually I forgot to lock the car.
Only realised it after we got back to the car when we wanted to leave the things in.
Pressed the unlock button of the car key: no sound
Die, I forgot to lock the car.
Fortunately nothing was lost or I'll be in deep shit.
But a lesson learnt the hard way, is a good way of learning.
Just like how I always forget to switch on the headlights after 7pm.
Noob I know, but which one of u dare to say u NEVER forget to switch on before?
Especially when in the car park at night, comfirm sure forget cos the car park so bright.
Only when exiting the car park then I'll realise, eh why suddenly the road so dark ah.
Then I'll look at the other cars and get reminded that I haven't turned my headlights on yet.
I wanna be on the road to familiarize myself well in Singapore.

I officially became Teddy's driver ler.

Grandma's Bday

2010-03-07T02:00:00.004+08:00

We drove in a Camry today.
It's daddy's company car. His boss told him to take it home.
So now we have 3 cars. Hoho!
So daddy let Teddy and I use the Camry, since he has his own BMW.
This Camry's super cool (and super fast also), 2.4 litres.
Never sat in any 2.4litre car before.

Note Teddy's SMALL eyes here.

Now look at how BIGGG he can "widen" his eyes.

If only your eyes were naturally THAT big, sure look very cute lor. Hehe.

My new bf, shuai not?!

NO LAH! He's my brother!

He's single and available, any takers?!

The purpose of this naccicistic pic is to show off my lashes.

They're not falsies and I'm proud of them.

Pls ignore my double chin.

At Forum's Imperial Jade Restaurant.

It's grandma's bday celebration today.

Had a 10 course meal.

Total damage for this meal was over $1k.

All my aunts and uncles expect the young working adults (ie. me, my bro and Teddy) to pay for the nxt meal. OMG so stressed.

I'm excited to start work, but apprehensive at the same time.

2010-03-06T00:37:00.002+08:00

Just received a call this noon telling me that I got a job offer from this company I really wanted to work for.
I've no idea why I like this company, I just do.
Gonna be a 3mths renewable contract to let me "try out" the job first, which also acts as a trial/probation period.
It's gonna be a HR position in a banking MNC.
Will not reveal too much on the company yet.
Will be gg down to sign the contract some time nxt week when they have finalized the draft of my contract.
They said that I can start work probably towards the end of nxt week after the contract has been signed.

I hope this is a good start to my career.
I pray for no hiccups what-so-ever to jeapordize anything.
I've always wanted a HR job and now I have it.
I cant seem to wipe off that glee on my face!

Nutella Swirls Cupcake

2010-03-05T00:09:00.002+08:00

Today Teddy went for his review at Tan Tock Seng Hospital.
His injuries have more or less recovered.
Doc said he's fine and his hairline fracture in the ribs would take about 2 months to recover.
So no vigorous exercise for him. That spells FAT!

I had time to bake today and decided to treat this boy to sth sweet, now that he can finally enjoy tasting sweetness.

Don't judge it just cos it look like shit.
It's actually heaven for the sweet tooth!
I deliberately put lotsa Nutella on top cos I love choco!
And inside the cupcake has buttery raisin filling.

Wanted to drive Teddy home later at night but he declined.
So I dropped him off the at the bus stop at Seletar Camp instead.
At least he has a straight bus home from there.

We'll finally be gg out tmr on a date!
Wah! Long awaited!
Haven stepped out to town for ages.
I dont know why but I'm feeling that same adrenaline rush like as if a kid was granted permission to freedom.
I'm excited! Go on, laugh at me. Mock at me.
It's not gonna stop me from feeling cheery!

2010-03-01T02:59:00.002+08:00

Today was the first time I drove to Teddy's house.
My dad was my passenger throughout the whole journey.
I'm quite proud of myself being a newbie driver yet having to travel quite a distance.
I just need more practice especially for parking (I still think I suck at it), and I'm good to drive alone!

Wheeeeee!

End of CNY 2010

2010-02-28T15:48:00.002+08:00

CNY has always been a bore to me.
But the boredom gets worse as I get older.
Maybe cos I dont have cousins who are around the same age grp as me, thus unable to communicate.
They're either too old, or too young.
This festive period to everyone seems like just another day to me.

These past few weeks have been spent at Teddy's house conscienciously.
Shuttling to and fro from my house to his. (I dont like to stay over, I prefer my bed)
I admit at times I really feel drained.
But I know that my appearance will make a speedy recovery, so I'd rather put in the effort to make his day.
Boy am I glad he's recovering fast.
(Thanks to all who gave their sincere wishes!)

Haven't been out (besides to his house) for the longest time ever.
I dont even have time to bake Nutella cupcakes which I have been procrastinating to do for the longest time also.
Speaking of which, I haven't got the time to even get Nutella from the stores.

Now that CNY is over, I better get down and serious to looking for a job.
I've played enough and Im glad I had time to play before I start my intense job hunting.

Have a good day folks!
Off to Teddy's now!

TTSH

2010-02-19T22:26:00.003+08:00

Thurs night 12am, Teddy was being admitted to Tan Tock Seng Hospital.
Only managed to get home at 4-ish am.
His legs were swollen until he felt numbness.
He was unable to walk and developed a fever.

The infected wound before admission.

Unglam pic of Teddy lying on the hospi bed.

Doc said his wound got infected.

He has to go to the polyclinic every single day to change his dressing after he's been discharged.

Teddy was so amuzed with the plastic tube being poked into his vein.

They just inject medicine straight into him thru this plastic tube.

No need to take oral medicine.

Looks quite painful to me.

I wouldn't have survived that, let alone the whole ordeal.

Seems like pressing charges against those arrogant ppl is a must now.

If they refuse to compensate, then the lawyers will have to come in.

I hope this will end amicably.

Hopefully they will give in and just compensate.

Seeing Teddy like this makes me so worried.

Poor Teddy.

Seems like a bad start to the new yr.

Hope he'll have a good yr ahead.

Veee-day and the unfortunate mishap

2010-02-15T23:50:00.005+08:00

How can anyone resist this cute lil green dino?!

I was lemming for this Yoshi plush in the longest time ever since we got addicted to New Super Mario Wii.

And I got so delighted with this lil surprise!

So cute hor?

See it's wearing boots!

It's the cutest character in Mario!

Pre-vday dinner at District 10.

Food was awesome!
Will be gg back some time.

Then it was off to One Fullerton.

We never fail to go back there to chill every yr on Vday.

Cos that's where we spent our first vday chilling.

BEWARE!!

DO NOT SCROLL DOWN IF U HAVE A FAINT HEART.

Ok so some of my close friends have heard about the mishap that happened to Teddy on the evening of Reunion dinner.

He got into a bike accident.

Just near my house, Begonia Rd.

Was sent to hospital in an ambulance.

Police, civil defence and tow trucks were at abundance at Begonia Rd.

I literally jumped up when I received a call saying he got involved in an accident near my house!

Rushed down to the accident scene and saw his new Class 2 bike lying on the floor of the nxt lane, engine oil and petrol spilt onto the ground.

The police told me that the casualty has been sent to the hospital but dont know what hospital he was sent to.

Now's time to hear the story:

Teddy was heading on a straight road out of Begonia Rd.

There was this bloody-act-big black Tuscani that was infront of him.

He was sort of road hogging as he was prolly unsure of the directions and decided to stop/slow down in the middle of the road.

So Teddy tried to overtake on the right. (So if want to overtake, of cos must speed up right?)

Then that bloody retard SUDDENLY decided to turn right, without signalling, without checking his blindspot, JUST FEAKIN' TURNED AND WENT DAMN FAST!

At this point of turning, Teddy was already beside him, so tt mutha-f*er knocked him down.

Teddy came crashing onto the tar ground and was being dragged on the ground over quite a distance (the nxt lane).

That retard who was apparently with his dad came out of their car and argued with him.

C'mon la, those heartless freaks have no conscience or what?

Ppl got knocked down, bleeding in excrutiating pain, and all those inhuman ppl do first is to bloody hell argue on who's wrong and who's right?

And the best part is that they FRIGGIN" claim that THEY ARE RIGHT.

And that Teddy shld not overtake in a single lane.

I think both of them father and son shld take TP test again.

Since when did it ever say that single lane cannot overtake?

ANY LANE ALSO CAN OVERTAKE EXCEPT THOSE MARKED WITH DOUBLE WHITE LINE LOR, RETARDS!

Still dare to argue when he's in the wrong.

Bloody pissed me off.

Teddy's day couldnt get any worse, his hp died when he was being taken away by paramedics.

Luckily I informed the police that his hp died, and they asked me for my details so that they could inform me of anything.

I also called his mom to inform her that his hp died.

I think she knew I sounded damn worried and even consoled me, though I know she's even more worried than I am.

Went home with a heavy heart.

It was supposed to be a happy reunion dinner for both me and him.

But ended up me and Teddy's mom had no appetite for dinner.

Cos there was no news of Teddy yet, at that point of time.

I couldnt enjoy the luxurious meat and delicacies in front of me.

I was mum throughout the whole dinner process.

No one dared to talk to me (even those relatives whom I get to see only once a yr).

I was in a trance.

And took only 2 mouthful of rice and ended my dinner.

Everything seemed tasteless, not even my most favourite dishes kept me digging.

I kept my hp with me at all times and jumped to the call if anyone called or sms.

Around 8 plus 9pm, I received a call from Teddy reporting that he's safely home.

He could be discharged from the hospital as there were no fractures, sprains or internal injury.

Thank God!

So currently he's suffering from multiple abrasions and a major backache which was prolly the result of the impact.

Teddy's injured foot.

I brightened the pic so that it doesnt look that "gory".

I got to see it first hand and it sure does look deep and unappetizing.

(same goes for the rest of the injuries)

There was so much pus oozing out from the wounds.

I've been conscientiously visiting him everyday.

Hoping to lighten his spirits and make him forget about his pain.

But seeing him like this makes me even more sad.

Cos I feel useless. Like I cant do anything to stop his pain or make him heal faster.

The least I can do is to be by his side when he needs me the most.

It wasn't the best CNY this yr.

But at least we have each other.

Tampopo & Thomas Sabo

2010-02-08T14:45:00.003+08:00

Taka's newly opened Tampopo for dinner

Hungry Teddy = Upset Teddy

An early V-day pressie from Teddy.

I'm so in love with charm bracelets!

(All so bling- Snowflake, "J", Star! Pics dont do justice to the blings)

Charm bracelets cost about $400.

Teddy's the BESTEST BF!

Never fail to give me the best!

Love Love!!

Whatcha Say

2010-02-04T01:58:00.006+08:00

I LOVE this lyrical dance routine!!

The choreography is DOPE MAX!!!

The interpretation of the song/lyrics into the choreo is just so apt!

I'm currently in love with this song too.

Super inspirational dance item!

I was awed from the start to the end.

The ending was damn power! I LIKEEEEE!!!

Hope u all like this piece of lyrical dance I shared.

It's my current fav on my top charts!

Enjoy!!

02.02.10

2010-02-02T23:45:00.003+08:00

WHEEEEEEEEEEE!!

I PASSED!! I PASSED ON MY FIRST ATTEMPT!!

MEGA HUGE GRIN!

A good date on my driving license: 02.02.10

And I just realised that it's a Tue too! So many 2's!

Chinatown

2010-01-30T17:02:00.002+08:00

Yum Cha for dinner on a Fri night.

It's barely 2 weeks away from CNY but Chinatown's already streaming with ppl!

Had to squeeze our way thru the lanes to get to our destination, roads were closed.

But it was quite a lighting feast, I must say.

CNY deco was lit up nicely.

I've never seen Chinatown more lively than this.

But crowd is not my thing.

Think my hair needs a haircut.

Booked appointment with my stylist ler!

Love this kinda camera effect, sepia, smokey and vintage.

I feel so addicted to Wii, so much so that I can understand why parents need to stop their children from playing it during weekdays.

Else they wont do their homework and refuse to slp!

"Mummy wait! Just one more level so that I can get to the boss!"

I'm in a love-hate relationship with New Super Mario Brothers Wii.

Gipsy Scarlet

2010-01-27T02:06:00.002+08:00

I'm sure online shopping is nth new to girls, and even to boys these days.
But how many selllers have made you feel super pleased and contented, in terms of service?
Today, I would like to express my gratitude to Gipsy Scarlet's commendable service!

When I posted an enquiry to them, I was given answers within 24hrs (super fast service!)
I've set my eyes on these 2 lovely dresses (below) and placed my order.

After a few days, my loot arrived.
However, the first dress came in the wrong colour.
I contacted the seller and told her about the mishap.
She got her mom to send it over to me again and refunded me the postage fees for mailing the wrong piece back to her. (She was overseas at that point of time; but it's a very responsible way of handling things and even replied to all my emails promptly!)
Then a few days later, the long awaited loot arrived.
I scurridly opened the mail only to learn that the colour was wrong again!
Thus, I contacted the seller and very quickly she responded.
She made an offer to deliver the ABSOLUTE CORRECT piece to my house doorstep.

Not many sellers I know are as responsible and able to make customers pleased with their service.
But Gipsy Scarlet's one online shop that I'll be visiting very often!
Thanks to their excellent service and wide range of pretty self-manufactured apparel!
Applause and cheers to Gipsy Scarlet!
Keep up the marvellous service!

Side note: In fact, this was actually the first time I received a wrong item, throughout my countless online shopping. But I'm sure glad that it was solved in the most pleasant way. =)

Karma happens

2010-01-24T16:23:00.003+08:00

Got a new addition to my charm bracelet: A bling ballerina (so pretty!)

Ok, this is how it started out.

At the Cairnhill carpark, it's a two-way traffic, and we wanted to park at the right hand side of the lane.

So switched on hazzard light and waited for the car on the right to move off.

Then the on-coming traffic seemed like they wanted that very same lot as us.

So we immediately engaged reverse gear to show that we were waiting for tt lot.

In such a haste, he didnt realise tt he was too close to the left.

So when reversing right, our left front of the car will knock into the front bumper of the car parked stationary on the left.

And so we did, but fortunately we only made his number plate a little bit crooked.

No dents/damage of any sort done.

Karma began.

1. I found a creepy crawly in my Yogurt (only after I've finished the whole damn thing!)

2. I got extremely "lucky" cos the birds decided that Im a good spot to land their droppings on.

3. Lastly, when we were making our way out of the carpark, he slammed the car into the pillar while making a sharp turn down the slope.

He must have turned too late, so the left side of the car was way too close.

I was on the passanger seat and actually anticipated the slam.

It was quite traumatic, though no external injury cos the wall was like damn close to my face and wham!

4. The stress about informing my mom bout the damage and her priceless reaction.

5. The cost of the repair. Said to cost about $1k?

So at the end of the day, we may have gotten away from the first incident where we caused the car's number plate to be crooked.

Now, mishaps befall on us like we owe the world.

Shopping Loot!

2010-01-20T17:27:00.003+08:00

New additions to my Wii collection!

Mario Kart, Raving Rabbids (TV party) and Zelda (bro's boing RPG).

Cant wait to play them!!

And my shopping loot for the day.
Finally got my Microsoft 4000 wireless mouse. Waited for it to launch since last yr!
Got lots of cosmetics/skin care from Ettusais and ZA.

I think Im the only person who suffers from muscle aches for playing too much Wii.

But it's good training! I likieee!

Clock shopping

2010-01-18T23:44:00.003+08:00

Went clock shopping on Sun.

Cos my wall clock decided to die on me.

Was awed by Molecule and their amazing array of designer clocks!

But all very pricey as well, easily above $100.

The designs range from timeless classics to modern fine cut designs.

Guess which one I chose for my boring white wall?

I chose this chilli red clock to be framed to add colour to my room.

Its fully made from glass, hence super fragile.

Cost slightly above $100 bucks.

Imported from Holland, so i'd say it's worth it!

HAPPY 3YR ANNIVERSARY, Teddy!

2010-01-17T16:29:00.003+08:00

15 Jan '10 marks our 3yr Anniversary.

Graze @ Rochester Park

The HUGE montage card I made for him.

Wii's finally in my possession!

Played till both my arms became numb, crampped and spasmic.

Cant lift my hands up anymore.

More pics of Graze are uploaded onto Facebook.

Super surreal place to dine in.

From the moment I stepped in, I thought I was overseas, cos 90% of the diners there were ang mo's.

Think Im gonna Wii everyday to train my arms.

Haha.

Frequent Nightmares

2010-01-14T23:26:00.003+08:00

I've been having frequent nightmares these few days.
I wonder if it's becos I've been bothered/disturbed, that's causing my unpleasant recurring dreams.
I feel like talking to someone, but it feels like I got no one to turn to.

My heart feels so heavy.
Can someone share my burden with me?
I wanna speak, but no words came out.
Y are things so difficult for u and me?
Y cant we just work things out the way it shld be?

Sigh, 'nuff of rants, at least today I finally satisfied my craving for frog leg porridge at Geylang Lorong 3.

I'm so afraid to sleep, cos I dont wanna have a bad dream.
I've gone into a state of repression that tears refuse to fall no more.

Countdown 3 more days!

2010-01-13T15:18:00.003+08:00

This coming Sat is very special to me.
Not only will I be welcoming the Wii into my possession (HEH HEH! Like finally!), I'll also be taken to somewhere very surreal for dinner.

Teddy bought tix for BreakOut 2010, a bboy dance crew injecting comedy into their performance.

$66 per tix.

Hope it'll be money well spent.

Random: I REALLY WANNA WATCH "JUMP" SO VERY MUCH. If no one's watching with me, I'll watch it alone. Peace.

Some friends are worth keeping, some are not.

How do u determine which one's worth it?

Those that will NEVER leave u in the lurch in a million yrs, and will stand by u thru' trying periods.

We, as friends, don't owe anybody anything.

It's a take it or leave it situation. And it takes 2 hands to clap.

So if u dont appreciate what u have before u, then be prepared to die a lonely death when u are old.

I had a dream.

A dream of u.

I wanted to ask u many questions.

But I chose not to.

I'm beginning to numb myself from reality.

Or is it that I choose to deny the fact.

Whatever the outcome may be,

I guess we can never be friends.

Craving unleashed

2010-01-11T18:43:00.004+08:00

I've been craving for Frog leg porridge from Geylang ever since last week.

I miss their frog leg porridge.

Not that I'm a fan of porridge or any sort, but how can anyone resist juicy, tender, succulent meat?!

Look at that huge chunk of meat!

I want a Mouth-watering meal! Like now!

Flavourful meat eaten with the porridge and thick gravy.
SHIOKNESS!

Abosolutely heavenly!

Can someone please accompany me to eat Frog leg porridge?!

I want to eat it nowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! ROAR!

No longer caught in between

2010-01-10T01:36:00.003+08:00

No point frowning, pouting or feeling melancholic.

Life still goes on.

He said, "as long as he's happy then u gotta respect that"

Yupyup I respect that and don't expect anything in return.

If this is how its gonna turn out then so be it, cos I know I tried my best.

As usual CTE forever jam big time.

Was moving inch by inch.

Came to a stop at a traffic light so took the opportunity to snap it.

Pls ignore that stupid face of his, cos he hates waiting at traffic lights.
Only managed to get to bed at 6plus am.
But got woken up shortly after ard 9am cos some workers came over to renovate/install sth in our storeroom.
BANG BANG BANG, BOM BOM BOM..DRIIIIILLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!
Sigh, had a hard time slping after that cos the noise was darn unbearable.
Finally woke up to have brunch, but didnt have any appetite.
Alcohol the previous night always make me lose my appetite the nxt day.
Felt so lathargic the whole day, but had to settle some things in town.

HK drama timeeeeeeee!!

OLDIES pub

2010-01-09T16:34:00.002+08:00

Meet the hyperactive Winnie and Edward.

She's looks so young, never expected her to be married alr!
Drowned my sorrows in red wine yst.
Cried like a fool hence my bloodshot eyes. (pls ignore my eyes)
In fact, I cried many times that night for a couple of reasons that was subconsciously haunting me.
Now thinking back, I feel so embarassed.

Thanks to Edward, I feel enlightened.
Had a heart to heart talk and I began to understand things from a different perspective.
More willing to accept the harsh reality being slapped hard onto my face.
I feel so much better after expressing my bottled feelings.

I've learnt to take things easy with an open heart and mind.
Ed sang a song yst which lyrics seemed so meaningful at that point.
Needless to say, tears just filled my eyes in an instant.
While we were talking, he said sth that reminded me of a painful memory.
This time I broke down.
All that bottled feelings I was subconsciously hiding from everyone else has been resurfaced.

I had a good cry, had a good laugh (think I hardly smiled that day).
Had a good puke that emptied my whole stomach. (I never knew I had that much to puke)
It was like the ultimatum of embarassment man.

Edward made sure I was home safely and went into slumber almost immediately.
I really appreciate the time and effort taken to listen each other out.
Thank You. =)

Delayed entry: Sunday 3rd Jan '10

2010-01-07T17:54:00.002+08:00

On the way to town.

Beginning to love this hairstyle.

It feels so light, neat and kempt.

Bored max today.

Indulged in some HK drama series.

Painted my nails again. Gold + Gold glitter.

Too bad it doesnt look prominent in pics. Real life looks so much prettier!

Off to more HK dramaaaaaaaa!
Ladeeedum deeedum......

An awful start to a new yr

2010-01-06T21:53:00.003+08:00

Things have not been going smoothly for me.
One after another issues were pesistantly daunting.
I need to rant before I lose control of my own self-consciousness.

Sorry peeps, I need a break. A break from life.
Can I just press the pause/stop button to my life?
Can someone teach me how to relax and calm down?
Cos everyday I feel like I'm fighting a losing war alone.

Who can truely understand me?
Set me free from troubles and let me soar thru the sky.
Help me please?

P.S Oh, and did I mention I HATE irresponsible people. Screw up big time man, bloody hell!
Im getting thrown into a bitch fit, seriously.
Been so long since I had this kind of lamentable gush rushing thru me.

Kim's Place

2010-01-03T15:42:00.002+08:00

Teddy popped by my house yst and I was teasing him of his "battery" eyes, "Joker" smile, small ears and long "horse" face.

So that's my interpretation of him (below bottom).

He has no hair in the drawing cos I always tease him that he's balding. HAHA.

But I really think that drawing really depicts how he really looks like. (at least to me)

In turn, he attempted to draw his impression of me.

Small face, sharp chin, big eyes.

But I really dont understand why he drew me with only 3 strands of hair!

Decided to dine at Kim's Place along YCK road.

They're famous for their Hokkian Mee.

I swear it was the BEST hokkian mee I ever had.

Even better than the Food Rebublic one. (in my opinion)

Or maybe I was just toooo hungry.

We also had Sambal Kangkong and the main dish was Cheese Crab!

Personally, I still prefer Crab Party's butter cream crab.

But this crab was OK.
Teddy was so sweet to let me have all the pincers and he ate the legs. =)

Teddy's the best cos he always leaves the best for me!
It was an affordable yet sumptuous meal!

Goodbye 2009, Welcome 2010!

2010-01-02T01:25:00.004+08:00

Firstly, a VERY happy and prosperous new yr to everyone!

31 Dec 09, on our way to Marina Sq to meet Mich and Xav (her bf) for dinner at Sakae.

Whoohoo! I loveeee my lashes! All natural okayyyy, not falsies.

Since we were bored waiting for the rest (Sandra, Carol, Regina) to arrive, we decided to snap snap.

I love Mich's new permed hair!

Pretty pink light stick on top of my lap.

Our light sticks combined forces.
Check out my newly painted GOLD nails.
Absolute love!
2009 has taught me to treasure the things around me.
Cos humans tend to take things for granted.
In life there're definitely many ups and downs to go thru.
But early 2009's downcast for me has really been a life experience that took me on by surprise.
Though I'm indeed glad that things were sorted out and had Teddy and true friends who stood by me during my darkest times.
I have therefore emerged a stronger person from within as these experiences forced me to grow outta my comfort zone.

The incident in early 2009 has left a scar in my mind and heart so much so that it affected my studies and everything else around me.
I was truely affected.
I knew I had to pluck myself up and quit asking myself, "WHY did this happen to me? WHY ME?...etc"

Till now, everytime I hear the song "Take a Bow" by Rihanna, I'd feel warm tears start to fill up my eyes.
Just like how the other day on Xmas eve, we were at Timbre dining happily and this song suddenly played, my eyes started filling up with tears cos it brings back painful memories.

Okay, enough of reflecting the melancholy.
2010 will be a better yr for everyone!
Imma get a Wii soon (YAYYYYYYYY!!!! icantwaiticantwait!!)
I wish for everyone to have good health, wealth and lotsa love in the air!
Cheers!

Lotsa pics to be uploaded in Facebook, waiting for the others to upload them.
Had an awesomely fun night with them at Marina Bay Floating Platform to bid goodbye to 2009 and welcoming 2010 with a spectacular fireworks performance!

Haunting the past

2009-12-29T16:46:00.004+08:00

It's just a blink of the eye and I've been blogging for about 6yrs and counting.
Decided to eradicate everything about my past from 2003- 2007.
Seems like it'll take me at least a few days as I've accumulated over 700 entries since 2003.
So I read them for the last time and deleted them one by one.
It was pretty heart wrenching as I digest the sincere wordings I once felt as I typed.

I realised how much I grew, from an immature, depressed, low self-esteemed girl, to what I am now.
I also dug out much grievences I had in the past.
But what's the past is the past.
And it will never come back. Thank God.

I'm very happy with what I have now, that includes my lovely friends, Teddy and maybe family.
And Im grateful with what I have.
It sure does feel good to be me!

ORCHARD 313- Rooftop garden

2009-12-26T22:48:00.002+08:00

Bro's turn to use the car today.

So we cabbed down to Orchard Central to have our dinner at our fav jap restaurant- Sakae Sushi.

After dinner, we decided to take a stroll at the roofgarden @ lvl 12.

I went there before during the daytime, but the setting at the roofgarden after dusk was pretty tranquil, apart from some teenagers hanky-panky-ing in the background of some corner.

That's me flashing my MEGAWATT smile.

And teddy looks like a drug addict.

Am i really THAT fair? I look damn white in this photo.

The nxt 2 pix was taken with Teddy's new hp. The Samsung Omnia HD.
So lousy lor the resolution. So pixelated and patchy.
Mine's still the BEST! LOVE MY HP TO THE MAXX!!

This "wired man" reminds me of a wind-sock.
It literally MOVES with the wind.
Abosolute coolness!

And that's another "wired man" climbing a set of stairs hanging in the air.

T'was a short outing for us today.

Wanted to catch a movie but the timing didnt fit into our schedule.

I wanna watch so many shows.

Can someone ask me out for a movie date ? Haha..

HOHOHO MERRY X'MAS!

2009-12-26T01:44:00.004+08:00

X'mas eve: Dinner at Timbre @ Old School (Mount Sophia)
T'was a serene ambience; definitely will go back there to dine again.
Then to KBox @ Marina Square with Teddy's friends.
Look at that HUGEEEE bottle of Chivas. Heard it cost more than $1k. (OMG!!)
I swear the bottle is the size of my body lor!
Damn huge la!
Okay, maybe i'm noob, but i've NEVER seen sucha HUGE bottle of chivas in my life!
And the 4 of us drank till less than one-third left of that HUGE bottle.

Teddy still managed to drive me home tho he's a bit tipsy.
Still, the moment he reached my house, dashed straight to the toilet and puked like hell.
Haha..Poor thing..then, he crashed immediately. Haha!

Merry Merry Christmas to all!
Did u all have a jolly good time??!
Cant wait to party on NYE!

KN's bday!

2009-12-22T23:02:00.004+08:00

Went to Sushi Tei @ Raffles City for dinner.

Just realised tt both of us were wearing almost the same coloured top.

Hugs!!! XOXO

Love my lovely friendsssss!!

Oh pls forgive Val's FAT arms. HAHAHA!

That's the bday girl!! Pls ignore my horrendous looking face.

With the pressies tt KN gave us..

Exhilerated receiving pressies!

Check out my new contacts.

The rest of the many pics are in Val's cam..

Val, faster upload them k!

Had such a fun time with my girlfriends.

Laughing and gossipping's our best forte.

I love u girls! =)

How to have natural pinky lips

2009-12-21T18:12:00.003+08:00

Lips are often viewed as a symbol of sensuality and sexuality.

They are one of the most visible of all and perhaps the most emotionally expressive and sensuous part of the human body.

We will look vibrant and healthy with a set of natuarally soft pink lips.

So here are the TIPS FOR NATURAL PINK LIPS:

1. Apply Beetroot juice before bedtime

2. Apply menthol based lip balms, leave it on for 2-3 mins, then use a toothbrush to exfoliate lips. (Do not brush too hard, skin at the lips are very sensitive)

3. Apply essential oil rich in Vit E. Vaseline helps too as a cheaper alternative.

4. There's this product called Bioglo Cherry Pink Lip and Nipple Cream.

It's available in ebay. I know this product is dual purpose, but no way am I gonna apply it interchangably.

Heard good raves bout this product though. (Eg, Restores alluring sheer pink to lips....etc)

So girls who wanna have naturally soft pinky lips or pink nipples (?) , go ahead and try this product out!

Giraffe Bar

2009-12-20T01:45:00.003+08:00

I think I really like my new haircut.

Went to chill at Giraffe Bar after dinner.

I got myself a grasshopper (Imma sucker for cocktails, pun intended) and a Kilkenny for him.

My pay from SPH is finally here!

Time to celebrate!

Anyone wanna date me out? HAHA!

Forgiven

2009-12-19T15:36:00.003+08:00

Ok, so after some sitting down explanation was done, it's time to forgive and forget.
Had quite a fun night with the boys.
No doubt it's been a while since I last hit the pub and had a couple of drinks.

Thanks to Marc who made sure I was alright and safe throughout the whole night, and not forgetting Edward who sent us home safely.

Go easy on the pranks nxt time ok!
I hope there wont be a nxt time.. =X

Too much

2009-12-18T14:32:00.005+08:00

How do u know if u've crossed the line while playing a prank on others?
I wld say its rather subjective.

I was affected the whole night cos someone "played a prank" on me.
Naive?
No, the situation was as if it was real, I swear.
Though along the way I knew that somewhere something was amiss.

Im not a toy.
I've feelings too.

The crux:
He's a friend of a friend.
He called me and impersonated my friend (using my friend's mobile).
I'll spare the details of the content.
But I remembered that I argued with a person whom I actually dont know totally at all.
While argueing, I realised tt something was amiss, cos somehow I found that my "friend's" voice was slightly different.
But I dismissed that fact cos after some drinks, he might have been a bit drunk and sounded fairly different.
Also, the "friend" knew too much bout my affairs, which totally freaked me out when I found out later that he actually wasn't my friend.
How the hell did he know so much bout me?

Ok fine, that apart.
I still think that its rather unfair to play this kinda prank on ppl.
Some more its literally in the middle of the bloody night. (2am)
C'mon, you're no teenager anymore.
Didnt u know u'd freak ppl out?
Have u any idea how freaked out I was?
The best thing is that when I asked the "friend" why he did such a thing/ what's the purpose of this prank, he responded," I dont know, just KPO and curious to find out what's gg on."
What the F* does that mean? What the hell do u take me for?
It's definitely not funny at all and I was so totally put off by it.
I dont know what's the truth anymore.

The very least that "friend" called me to apologize after feeling terribly guilty for playing such a nasty prank.
And im grateful for that..
At least I know what went on last night.
In my opinion, I still think its too much.
Cos of that prank, I lost my slp, I lost my appetite (till now) cos Im still in a state of confusion over what happpened.
Im still wondering which is real and which is not.

I still some time to snap out of it.
I think i need an explanation.
I need some answers.

Pls dont do this anymore?
You totally freaked me out to the max, you know?

A new BOB haircut

2009-12-18T00:10:00.004+08:00

Went for a hair cut today at FEP.
I love my hair now!
It feels neat, light and bouncy!

Side view:

The teddy dropped by while I was cutting hair.

Then we walked over to Wisma to collect my coloured contacts.

Dined at Xin Wang HK cafe.

Yami Yogurt (is always our dessert) then home.

BUSY WEEKEND

2009-12-14T01:16:00.005+08:00

Fri night @ Zirca
Event: Queen of Queens Paegent by Seventeen Magazine (SPH event)

Dined at Liang Court.
Had some Jap food (again). I nv get sick of them.

Pic was taken after a night after Zirca.
We were invited as guest of the event, so managed to sit in the VIP lounge area.
A full view of the program.
One of the perks working with SPH.

Coincidentally it was also a friend's bday.
But we still left pretty early as compared to the rest who stayed on.

Sat

Was at Orchard 313 for the virgin time.

Was wow-ed by the connecting underground subway.

Then to Orchard Central's Roof Garden @ Level 12.

Nice scenery, nice wind.

Dinner @ Sakae, Chillled over beer and Margarita @ Cold Hard Beer.

Sun

12pm: To Sembawang to celebrate an ex colleage's baby girl's bday.

Left at bout 2.30pm and headed to town.

Long journey to town, thus snap snap.

Spent quite a bit on shopping loots today. (YAY!)

At 6pm, we left for Sims Drive to collect Teddy's new teeveee...

His mommy gave away his old tv, earlier than expected.

So there was a rush to grab one.

Luckily Audio House was having great offers!

Travelled a total of about 60km today.

I wld say that's quite a distance travelled in our tiny land, considering we only travelled to these few places.

Gonna make an appointment to trim my hair before xmas and am considering getting eyelash extensions.

Hope there're no side effects or pain involved while getting the extensions.

Cos I'm a no-painer. Cant take the slightest dosage of pain.

Still doing my research to see if there're any negative comments for eyelash extensions.

Cos afterall, it's still $59 for a few pieces of hair.

Vanity; ladies best at.

The HAPPIEST day of my life!

2009-12-10T01:23:00.002+08:00

The above picture shows what I'm feeling now.
One simple word: HAPPY! Abosolutely overjoyed!! Ecstatic!!
(I know, that's more than one word, but I dont really care, HAHA!)
Happy until I keep grinning and smiling to myself while on the lappie..
Happy until I feel like flying!
Happy until I cant sleep tonight!

Quickly ask me why am I so happy!!!!
Hahahahahahahaha!!
Happy, sha la la...It's so good to be HAPPY, sha la la!
-dances around-
Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!

Imma celebrate BIIIIIIIIG TIME!!!!!!!!
DOUBLE YAYNESS!!!!!!!

TINKERBELL PUZZLE COMPLETED

2009-12-07T18:58:00.002+08:00

Spent bout 3 nights (and average bout 4hrs each night) getting this baby done.
The rose and leaves were the most difficult to piece tgt.
Cos all of them look the same!

But im glad that we've completed it in such a short time regardless of the obstacles.
It looks so pretty and sweet.

Gonna frame it up in a matte gold frame!
And hang in my room.

Nxt will be getting down to Teddy's puzzle..

4 Hrs of hard work

2009-12-05T23:12:00.004+08:00

Before:

After 4 Hrs of bloody hard work:At least can see Tinkerbell forming. It was a tedious task.

Looking at bits and pieces of jigsaw is really no joke man.

My eyes were beginning to get cross-eyed.

Gonna try to finish up this weekend.

I cant wait for the completed puzzle!

Will update again with the completed puzzle!

RUINED; DEVASTATED

2009-12-04T00:19:00.005+08:00

I just kept crying and crying and crying the whole day until i've bloodshot eyes.

Didnt eat the whole day. No appetite at all. In no mood to care bout my gastric at this point.

Couldnt get to slp at all.

Thanks Val, who encouraged me thru this tough time.

But i still cant come to terms with it.

Not yet, maybe not ever.

Sorry to those whom I didnt reply via sms.

I just needed some time alone, to cool down.

But it seems like it's not helping.

Cos tears keep flowing uncontrollably.

Eyes pain, head pain.

Heart even more painful.

What's wrong with me?

I really wished i was dead.

I need a hug.

SUPER RED MOZZIE BITE

2009-12-02T22:51:00.003+08:00

Was recenly bitten by a mozzie.

On my thigh!

Such a ti-koh mozzie.

The Rat has a new haircut.

I think it makes him look 18.

HAHA.

I've finally booked my TP.

Dooms day on 2nd Feb 2010, 4.30pm.

Scared shit.

It was a raining today when I went for my driving lesson.

He msged me saying, " I'll try to blow away the rain, u give me a moment"

Haha! So cute!

VAL's b'day dinner (Part 1)

2009-12-02T00:31:00.002+08:00

The main STAR for the day was Val, my breastie.
Mich, Sandra, Carol and Marc were present today.
That's her and her present.
Went to dine at Manhatten Fish Market @ PS.

That's with the JOKER of the day!

Really cracked up all of us!

Cos he himself is a JOKE!

Really funny!

Part 2 and 3 coming up soon!

Another KOI-zy craze

2009-11-30T02:32:00.004+08:00

Our first time trying this bubble tea outlet.

Went to the AMK central outlet and there were lots of ppl queueing up for it.

Actually it taste the same, just that they use mini pearls instead of the normal ones.

And that u can choose ur own sweetness level.

Other than that, I've no idea what's the craze of KOI bubble tea's about.

Ri Ben Chun vs. Sakae Sushi

2009-11-28T16:23:00.004+08:00

It was a rainy Fri noon.
Snapping away before gg to The Cathay for dinner @ Ri Ben Chun.
It was our first time dining there.
Personally I still prefer Sakae.
Although their (RBC offers 9 slices) Salmon Sashimi is more than that of Sakae's (offers 5 slices only), the ambience and all still loses hands down to Sakae (esp love the outlet at Orchard Central!)
Other than their generous fare of Sashimi, the other food was so-so.

Heard that their sushi was machine-made instead of hand-made.
So their sushi was very loosely packed.

We tried dishes similar to what we have at Sakae.
Soft shell crab, chawanmushi, fried tofu, and other sushi.

For the price that we paid at RBC ($40 plus for 2 ppl), we felt that we could have a better meal at a cheaper price at Sakae ($34 for 2), for the same items eaten at both restaurants.
Maybe cos at Sakae, I'm a member thus discount and add-on promotions that accounts for that cheapcheap $34..

Moreover, at RBC it's semi self-service.
No menu.
Means u have to walk round e restaurant collecting ice cream sticks of the items u want to order.

I'll still choose Sakae over RBC if u ask me..I'd rather be served all the way.
Haha!

Im feeling so crappy

2009-11-27T00:52:00.002+08:00

Yes, Im feeling very crappy and i need to rant.
But no, I dont wanna talk bout all the unhappy events.
Im not really sure what I want.
I think I need a shoulder, a listening ear.

I dont wanna jolt back to reality.
How I wish life can remain a fairy tale where life is full of happiness.

Daddy's bday dinner @ Raffles Town Club

2009-11-23T03:24:00.002+08:00

Before gg out.

Hate it when my hair "opens window".
Look at the rat's "moon cresent" face!

Had a super full dinner.
Total damage for 5ppl was about $250.
Quite worth it cos the meal included sharks fin, and lots of prawns, scallop and crab meat.
Yum!

TINKERBELL JIGSAW PUZZLE + SALLY BOB

2009-11-21T23:28:00.003+08:00

Teddy got me a Tinkerbell jigsaw puzzle, only 500 pieces.

Plus a white frame to be painted matt GOLD later on.

Spent bout close to $80 for both.

And I got myself a mini handheld fan.

It's called SALLY BOB.

Bored in the car.

SNAP. SNAP. SNAP.

Waraku for dinner. Ate lots of good stuff.

It was a good meal.

Total damage was bout $50plus.

But it was all worth it.

A New purple tinkerbell mug

2009-11-21T02:33:00.004+08:00

That's Teddy's new Doraemon mug and my new Tinkerbell mug!

It was his fav cartoon character when he was a young boy.

LOVE MY NEW PURPLE MUG!

BOO!

It's a rainy day AGAIN.

Went for driving lesson and couldn't even see the car in front cos it was raining so damn heavily.

Thank God I didnt land up in an accident.

Almost finishing up all my lessons.

Have been going for lessons dilligently 3 times a week.

Last 3 more lessons before I book my TP.

Cant wait to pass! YAY!

Body Worlds Exhibition 2009

2009-11-16T01:36:00.002+08:00

Was at the Science Centre on Sat to witness this amazing exhibition, Body Worlds.

Very educational.

What amazed me the most is that all those artefacts present at the exhibition belongs to REAL LIFE PPL. (who are obviously dead already)

Got quite freaked out seeing them exposing the muscles and insides of the body.

Most of them are shelled up but there was no odour even to those that were exposed.

That's due to the process called Plastination. (to preserve bodies, makes them look plastic-y)

Saw a real life Girrafe, 2 Reindeers, an octopus and many human beings.

We were both coincidentally in lime green top and black bottoms.

Guess where is next on the itenery??

The bottle tree village.

Went there just for a spin.

Nth much there really.

Just some seafood/ halal restaurants, a tiny prawning pond, and a kids playground.

But since we've nv been there, it was a cool experience cos the roads leading to this Bottle Tree village was not very well lit and the road were damn narrow.

Sorry to say, but the bottle trees like not very nice leh.

Maybe I just dont know how to appreciate trees.

Ebisboshi @ Iluma

2009-11-11T00:41:00.002+08:00

Look, Glossy glossy hair!

Met up with my 2 goodfriends, Val and KN on Mon.
Ate at this "cute" jap restaurant @Iluma Bugis.
I really like their ordering system where it has gone wireless.
The food was quite ok.
The sashimi was FANTASTIC!

Oh yes, I just coloured my hair again since the blacks are coming out.
This time I tried out the new Liese Bubble foam hair dye.
It's really mess-free and surprisingly doesn't smell as pungent.
Best of all is the colour!
I chose their Marshmellow Brown, for a toned down natural brown (cos gonna start looking for job, so no more funky colours), yet it gives off a glossy feeling.
After washing off the hair dye, it really didnt leave my hair dry and tangled, as compared to the other brands tested before.
Say goodbye to mess, uneven colours and dry hair!

*More pics of that day with KN.
KN u better faster upload ah!
If not i kick ur backside!
Haha!

SAKAE SUSHI @ ORCHARD CENTRAL

2009-11-08T15:34:00.003+08:00

Look, I cant wink properly.

Sakae Sushi became our NUMBER 1 choice of jap restaurants.

Everytime we're out, 80% of the time we'll choose Sakae.

And we never get bored of eating it!

Especially now we're members, we dine there even more often.

I especially love the Orchard Central branch, cos it's secluded and serene, as compared to the rest of the other outlets in Sg.

I hardly wear sleeved tops, but this sleeved top from one of BonitoChico's collection (sometime wayyy back), got me gg "I WANT THAT TOP!"

It's so light, thin and comfy.

And it can be paired with shorts or jeans!

I wore white shorts!

Only thing is that I've to put on a tube cos it's DEEP V-neck is too LOW.

Only happens to flat chested ladies. DAMN.

Cheesecake & Butter Rasin Muffins!

2009-11-05T18:37:00.003+08:00

The picture definitely doesn't do justice to the food at all. Seriously.

On Tue I baked lemon cheesecake.

There's a layer of crust at the bottom.

So yummy!

Today I baked butter rasin muffins!

While waiting for it to bake in the oven, I went upstairs to check email and all, after a while, the aroma of the muffins got me downstairs to check on it.

I swear it smelt SO DAMN good.

Savoury!

ALL MINEEEE!!

Women's Fair '09

2009-11-02T23:55:00.003+08:00

Now that I've officially completed my first (which is also my last paper).
That marks the end of my student life.
Right after my exam, I went for the Women's Fair event briefing.
Worked for 12hrs, 3days consecutively.
I was assigned to the "Lucky Draw" booth. (which is also the slack-est job)
I get to sit down while the rest have to stand thru-out the entire day.
Although sitting arrangements were planned for me, it's still so darn tiring at the end of the day.

That's the Rat with my REDEEMED sticker.

Women's Fair is organized by SPH Magazines.

They have produced Her World, Simply Her and NuYou (chinese mag).

Have made many new friends and contacts while working.

Guess I've to get back to reality and start my job search real soon.

Voices in Harmony

2009-10-12T01:53:00.002+08:00

I was super amazed about how harmonized and clean their voices were.

Enjoy. My 2 favourite songs now.

Haha!

I seriously hate my room light.

Damn irritating. Keeps blacking out for no reason.

Just changed the light bulb and even got the starter changed as well.

Seems like it's time to change my light.

Mummy says we're gonna renovate me and bro's room nxt yr aft chinese new yr.

LANTERN/ Mid Autum Festival

2009-10-05T19:18:00.003+08:00

[CLICKCLICK ON IMAGE FOR CLEARER VIEW]

Dropped by Marina Barrage again to "shang yue" (full moon appreciation, i call it).

Many children, families and couples were playing with lanterns, kites, candles and sparkles.

A child walked pass and said, "Daddy, the moon is BLUR!"

I looked up into the sky and it was LITERALLY blur.

The clouds were blocking the moon.

Soon after it started drizzling.

Was taken at a friend's wedding dinner sometime last month.

CHOCOCHIP BUTTER CUPCAKES!

2009-10-01T21:28:00.002+08:00

The first batch I previously baked some time ago, all turned out BURNT.

This time round, PURRRFECT!

SMELL, TASTE, LOOKS, TEXTURE = 100% THUMPS UP!

Wanna try some??
YUMSSS!!

COOKIES! YUMS!

2009-09-26T03:04:00.004+08:00

The kitchen renovation has been fully completed!

I baked chocolate chip cookies during the Hari Raya public hol..

I sorta did the mixture wrongly.

Surprisingly, it didnt taste bad at all. Haha.

But I still feel it's not good enough.

Received many good comments from friends, family and my mom's colleagues though.

Will try to continue to improve my baking.

Second time trying to bake, need more time to get used the the si-bei high tech oven.

The first time I tried to bake, the cupcakes were BURNT.

I've seemed to have developed a new hobby of baking.

But I guess I need to learn a lot more.

Back from BKK

2009-09-17T15:15:00.004+08:00

At Changi Airport's Budget Terminal.
First time there, a really tiny terminal I would say.
Look at my HUGE eyebags, didnt slp a wink the whole night.
Major adrenaline rush!

Waiting to board.

When we're on the planeeeee..

At BKK's Siam Paragon's Mos Burger for a tea break.

Teddy: U wanna come to my house?

Me: Huh?
After dinner, we spotted the "TEDDY HOUSE" while walking back to the hotel at Siam Square.

I had to take a pic of this cos its REALLY cute!

Not many pictures taken during this trip cos we were tooooooo busy SHOPPING like mad.

Our legs were almost numb with all the walking at the end of each day.

It was physically challenging for the 4 days.

Back was aching, legs were aching.

However, this time I didnt manage to buy lots of things.

Only bought ard 10 pieces of clothing.

Visited all the places of interest for shopping like MBK, Siam Sq, Chatuchak, Platinum Mall.

All my clothes were bought in Platinum Mall.

The Rat has the BIGGEST accomplishment for shopping for clothes this time round, cos he bought clothes that cld last him for 3yrs!

Haha. Ok, slightly exaggerated.

The whole time, I felt that I was just FOLLOWING him on a shopping spree.

The whole shopping experience was just average to me this time.

Didnt find clothes of my kind.

I'm hoping to go Taiwan nxt yr when I save enough cash $$.

Wheeee!

Off to BKK!!

2009-09-10T18:36:00.002+08:00

One more pic from the photoshoot.

I'm off to BKK in 15more hrs!
Super excited to the MAX!

Gonna shop like crazy!
Wheeeeee!

See u all when I get back on Monday!
Take care!

3rd Sept 2009

Photographer: Herbert

Models: Jernice, Pearly

These are the few that we took on that day.

Was damn scorching hot and we were literally perspiring big time.

Had mosquito bites all over my legs now.

But im very happy with the pics taken by Herbert!

Such a good ~~perfectionist~~ photog!

So nice! Love every pic!!

Rebellious Teen Photoshoot

2009-09-03T00:46:00.003+08:00

Doing a photoshoot with Pearly tmr at ECP.

Will probably be doing 2 photoshoots.

One is Rebellious teen, the other will be sweet girl-nxt-door shoot.

Back to back, have to bring a HUGE bag with clothes, makeup and shoes to change.

The theme is so contrasting, but that's what is most interesting.

I always trust Herbert's work, the photog for the day!

Cos i've seen his art masterpieces, and I have to admit that they are wonderful.

I hope that we could deliver beautiful art masterpieces tmr!

Will be dead tired tmr after doing 2 photoshoots on one day.

Will post up the PRETTY pics after Herbert has transferred them to CD!

SAKAE SUSHI MEMBERSHIP

2009-08-31T02:48:00.003+08:00

Teddy and I always dine at Sakae Sushi, so we decided to get this Sakae Sushi Membership card.

I guess its quite worth it if u eat there often.

The perks and privilleges of this card is also quite attractive to us.

Go geddit if u haven!

Welcoming my 22nd

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!

22nd Aug 09- Tam Po Po Dinner @ Liang Court

Then it was to THE SINGAPORE FLYER!

Taken inside the flyer.

23 Aug 09- Actual Bday

Hay Dairies Goat Farm

We woke up early to see them milk the goats.

But we were being held up at home, so we missed the timing.

Only could see the goats at a distance of 2.5m.

All they do is eat and shit whole day.

Never bathe some more, so smelly.
Goat farm adventure was quite boring.

After goat farm, it was to Jurong Point to get my charm bracelet.

Got a Miss Sixty charm bracelet at Citigems.

Courtesy of my bro who sponsored my purchase!

Flowers, card and a Singapore Flyer tix from Teddy.

The birthday card is the retro kind where there's sound coming out.

HAHA!

3rd yr celebrating my birthday with Teddy.

More to come!

Cant wait for the BKK trip!

My REAL birthday pressie!

*A warm thank u to Val, KN, Sarah, Sha, for the vouchers and all my friends who wished me!

P.S More pics could be found in my FB. =)
