Am very touched with the super kind and caring souls around me...

Got a call from Claudia this afternoon. This sweet girl has called to console and give me encouragement right after she saw my previous entry. Isn't that really sweet? Haha

In addition...

Xin, Christal and Linda made time to meet up with me for Minds on Tuesday! We played many different games and the girls definitely cheered me up! Too bad Linda had to go off in the evening, nevertheless the 3 of us still had great fun because it was ladies night!

I definitely recommend you peeps to go Minds on Tuesday because it is TOTALLY free! provided you dont order any drinks or food la.

We then went to Mac for our late dinner and to chat about school stuff... My dear girls, thank you for listening to me. I know its tiring to listen to a person whining about the same thing over and over again so I really appreciate you guys for being wonderful listening ears...

After that we continued our chat with some oversized Ice cream! Haha! It was then the 2 of them asked me how I wanna celebrate my birthday! At first I said I want to dress up and make up la, so that can take nice pics ma... then Xin suggested we should do something more sporty!

*grin* We have then decided we should go for a picnic cum cycling or blading session at ECP followed by feasting at Marina South! Hee! For my birthday celebration, we will have a chalet! Bwahahaha so last minute but I like the spontaneous side of us! Immediately booked a chalet at Downtown East! Next Monday! Super impromptu rite? *Mega smile*

So, I'm looking forward to all the meetings with my friends!

Monday - Chalet with Xin & Christal
Tuesday - Meetup with May & Pat
Wednesday - Picnic @ ECP
Thursday - Jurong Birdpark with the Love
Friday - Meetup with En
Saturday - Meetup with Eve, Jas & Yu
Sunday - BBQ @ home with family
Monday - Meeting in school (boohooo)

Yeah man, meeting in school on my actual day! Sian... Too bad my tuition friends will not be free to meet up. Oh, Shan too!!!

Fuck the world

2007-06-04T21:11:00.001+08:00

Cried my heart out totally last night.

Honestly, I cannot accept the fact that I cant get in especially when there are other friends who did not perform as well as I do in school got the offer.

Am I so fucking sway or what? I worked damn hard in this fucking school, I chiong my fucking way in my practicum school and got a fucking distinction.

But what happens? Some of my friends who leave on the dot at 1.30pm got the offer.

Was browsing some of the pics that I took with the NIE girlies while listening to some music. Was feeling damn emotional la. Lots of mixed feelings.

Firstly, I feel sad because I will not be able to experience the same thing with them because ALL of them got it except me.

Secondly, I think it will be more difficult for me to meet up with them to have crazy outings but they can still hang out together anytime in school or near school area, which I can't join them. Which further leads to the thought of drifting apart from my girlies. This is a freaking important factor for me because I cherish them as all my besties. What will I be without them?

Eve, Yu, Jas:
I really love you girls and I take the 3 of you as "my gang". When I tell my friends outside school I'm going out with my gang, they all know who you are. I don't know how to put things in words (because I'm not in the right mind now), but YOU ARE IMPORTANT TO ME.

Xin:
Thank you for being the sometimes-bimbotic-and-naive-but-sometimes-mature friend. I truly love your company and I cherish you as one of my besties in school too (out of that gang though). But I really cherish the friendship between us. The advices, the encouragements, the everything. Oh ya, You are the first bestie who have shared a fitting room with me and seen me in bra (ok, digress, but that represents how comfortable I am with you), not forgetting you are the only friend who has bunked over in my hall.

I know I am freaking stupid to make this sound like I'm migrating and leaving this whole damn world. In fact, fuck the world. *sigh* However, I do feel I am migrating to another world apart from you girls.

For all of you whom I have met in NIE, thank you for sharing a part of your life with mine.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

To Steph:

I'm not sure if you ever still read my blog. But I will do this anyway.
Yes, I did not forget you. I'm not trying to act like a fucking saint here, but yes, I still think of you sometimes. I was browsing through some pics we took last time and stumbled upon your birthday pics and video clips. I cried out loud too can? The fun times that the 5 of us shared before everything happened was unforgettable. I'm not trying to gain back friendships or whatsoever, I just do not like regret.

I hate the fact of not telling the person I love 'I love you'. That applies to friends too. The imagination (perhaps you already did it real-life) of you throwing away the photo frame that I did for you breaks my heart.

------------------------------------------------------------------

Anyway, just to repeat myself, I love all of you people who have been part of my life. Thank you.

Opportunity?

2007-06-02T23:30:00.000+08:00

I studied hard, I worked extremely hard, I got a good grade for Practicum, but I didn't get a letter.

Pathetic shit.

Especially when ALL my gfs around me got the offer. Sigh.

Never enough shoes!

2007-05-20T21:25:00.000+08:00

Popped over to the Charles & Keith warehouse sale yesterday! Luckily we drove there quite early, didn't really have to queue! My singaporean-auntie-mode was turned on once we stepped into the warehouse (literally!).

The constant pushing and digging for heels and bags... yadda yadda... NEVERENDING! It's really the SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST! You strong, you push, you dig, you win! The ladies shoes are really cheap la... the most expensive range of shoes cost only $19! The rest cost about $15, $12, $5, and even $3 a pair (and buy 1 get 1 free!!!! which means $1.50 each pair) Can you imagine the craze of everyone with such rock bottom prices??? OMG!

I bought 4 pairs of goodies at only $19 each! hahahaha! The most expensive kinds la... leather pointed heels etc etc. I realise I'm REALLY getting old when I was taking pictures of the shoes I bought. They are so OL can... arghhhh

My favourite pair! (I'm a sucker for rounded pumps la)
Usual price: $39.90

Also my favourite pair! (Very soft leather, comfy!)
Usual price: $42.90

Black pointed heels
Usual price: $37.90

Denim girly heels
Usual price: $34.90

Yeah!!! Battle won!!! Bwahahahaha

Anyway, I've been contemplating for quite long whether to change my blog to wordpress or livejournal. I'm quite sick of not able to have private posts using blogspot... After eve's relocation and impressive advertisement of livejournal, I've been thinking hard if I wanna change... wordpress is quite similar also la, but i hate their frequent syntax errors!

Decision, decision, decision..........

Contradiction

2007-05-09T08:27:00.000+08:00

I have such mixed feelings now... I ought to be happy now as everything is coming to an end and I finally have time to meet up with friends and relax yadda yadda....

I'm glad I got posted back to the same school (this means the relationships that I have built will definitely make me feel more at home since I will be back to a familiar ground). My CTs and former CTs are also very happy la that we can work together again... I love them a lot! Haha (cough, perhaps 1 or 2 exception la)

Hai...

I accompanied Dad and Mum to TTSH for Dad's checkup. This time is not for his accident injury thingy, but for the tumour. I have not told any of you except cabrina, simply because I really had no time to contact anyone during that period of time. Cab was around online, and my nick on MSN roused her to pop me a msg. Cab, thanks for caring. =) *hugz*

During March (my busiest weeks), the doctors found a lump in my Dad's liver. They deduced it is a benign one. It was reported that the tumour is approximately 2cm plus plus in size. My dad is extremely reluctant to undergo surgery as one of my uncles died at a very young age because he took the surgery and apparently the cancer cells spread to his whole body after the cut (all my uncles including Dad have Hep B, which increases the chance of getting liver cancer). So he told the Doc to give him 2 months time to see how things goes while he take TCM.

Yesterday, just 2 months later, we were shocked to hear from the doc that the tumour has almost doubled its size to 6cm plus plus. He says he will need to have a meeting with other doctors to finalise the procedures that Dad can take now. Surgery might not be suitable.

It hurts me so much to see Dad trying to be humourous and cheerful. I know he is afraid of losing us all, afraid of leaving us so early, afraid of leaving us all behind wondering if we can survive without him, afraid that we will live miserably simply because theres no more money coming in. In fact, I am fucking scared too. Nothing can describe the fear in me now. I have no idea how to help him except to find information online.

I am unable to feel happy for this whole practicum thing too. I am so troubled now that I cant even sleep. I don't know what to do now. I hope to urge Dad to undergo surgery, but even the doc now cannot confirm with us the success rate of the operation. How can we let Dad go under the knife just like that???

Now we will arrange another checkup with Raffles because we feel that there are limitations in a government hospital and perhaps a private one can offer more solutions. I really pray for the best.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear heavenly Father,

Thank you for the tiring but smooth sailing and fulfilling practicum. Thank you for giving me strength to stay strong during that period of time and blessing me with the luck to receive a good grade.

Father, please bless my family with good health and strength to overcome this crisis. Especially my dad, lord please bless him with the optimism and guide him to make a correct decision. At this time when we are all weak, lord we commit ourselves to you and please guide us to the correct path to take.

Lord please grant all good things to be upon my dad. Please heal my dad. We hope the cancer cells will not spread and hopefully we can get rid of the tumour at that targetted area successfully and please let dad recover from this disease.

Not forgetting our friends and relatives, dear lord please bless them with good health and may all good things to be upon them. Please bless the other trainees to have a good start or to continue successfully in their careers.

All these we pray in Jesus's mighty name, Amen.

That's my love.

2007-05-04T08:28:00.000+08:00

The love sent me a sms yesterday.

"Bee tmr we go watch si bai de man san ok?"

I spent almost a freaking minute to figure out what he is saying.
What he actually meant was this:

"Bee tmr we go watch spiderman 3 ok?"

Duh. That's my love. -_-"

Thank God for everything

2007-04-18T16:42:00.000+08:00

Alas it's good news!!!

Now I am left with one last freaking observation and I'm done.

Hope all of you are doing fine... and I really really wanna meet up with all of u soon! =)

Till then!

So tired so tired...

2007-04-15T10:45:00.000+08:00

Basically, I treat the coming week as the last week of my practicum. After next week, I am not going to give a damn about everything. I'm simply too tired to carry on. If the professors in the DED module ask me again what kills the passion of teachers. I will not say parents and pupils.

But its practicum and the freaking workload. Practicum kills the passion of most teachers I believe.

Even though I "traded" some lesson plans with a few of you, I simply cannot use them at all because my school have their own I.T programs that I need to incorporate into my lessons.

I have to freaking start all my lesson plans from scratch. This is exceptionally tiring. Feel like giving up sometimes. *Sigh*

Next week is gonna be an extrememly tough week for me, and I hope everything will go smoothly and hopefully can hear some good news.

Till then.

My shoulders are not so strong.

2007-03-25T09:08:00.000+08:00

Last Friday was supposed to be an important day for me as my Supervisor and CT will be observing my lesson formally. I already felt very stressed and tired becos of the super-heavy workload and the 24/7 working routine. I work 7am to 7pm almost everyday and after reaching home, theres more marking and lesson planning.

But the day became SHOCKINGLY IMPORTANT to me. I received a phonecall from Mum at 4am in the morning, saying that my Dad was admitted to TTSH and waiting for operation. I literally jumped out of bed, prepared myself and rushed to the hospital la.

I was worried sick for my Dad, but also very worried about my observation. Hai.To cut things short, observation was carried out smoothly and currently my Dad is still in pain - the after effects of the operation. For the past 2 days, I slept less than 5 hours each day. Morning, visiting. Afternoon, home to pick up siblings and visiting again. Night, send mum to work and visiting again. Middle of the night, pick mum from work and send her to the hospital.

I feel so tired and drained out, both physically and mentally. Today is Sunday and I have not done a single lesson plan for Monday. The stress bug is here again, and Dad will be discharged today too. So there are too many things for me to do. I am so fucking screwed and I really detest my life now.

I have to worry about work, and have to worry about Dad. I even have to worry about my siblings, because they simply cannot think properly. How I wish they can grow out of this irritating phase soon.

For the following weeks, I am not sure how I am gonna handle the work and stress from both sides. I will need to bring dad back for occupational therapy, as well as changing his dressings in the polyclinic. I have to clean his wound everyday too.

Fortunately, somehow I am farmiliar with these. I can totally understand the feeling of going to the polyclinic to change dressing and to clean wound everyday. So at least I know how Dad feels, and make sure his wound remains clean and not infected. Hopefully his wound can recover completely soon.

My shoulders are seriously not so strong afterall.

Dear heavenly Father, thank you for giving me the power to carry out the lesson smoothly last Friday. I pray for the power to stay strong at this phase of my life, and I pray that your healing hands will be upon my Dad and Mum who is not feeling well too. I pray that you can grant power in my siblings for them to understand the situation and do the best they can for our family and their studies. I pray that you can grant me concentration so that I can do well in work and lastly, good health for everyone in this world. Amen.

Hippo-ceros!

2007-03-13T23:32:00.000+08:00

Please pardon my astonished face. BWAHAHAHAHA

My virgin drive!

2007-01-28T23:07:00.000+08:00

I had my first attempt in driving on the road without an instructor today! But of cos Dad is around just in case I kalang kabor in the mid way.

Mum, Dad, The love and myself were in the car so I feel a little scared at first since I am responsible for 4 lives! So for the first try I drove to our neighbourhood market so that we can have lunch, and most importantly the journey is super short la... everything was smooth and I managed to try out real parking without poles! Hehe!

After everything we went home of cos... after I successfully parked the car and have turned off the engine, Dad said "On the engine, now you driving to Telok Blangah to fetch sis from her tuition."

I was like... "WHAT THE!?!?!?!?!?!" Here I am finally sighing with relief that I have completed his test but to realise there was a bigger test coming up!!! Immediately I recalled the way he taught me swimming when I was young.

When I was about 6 years old, he brought me to the ~~worst~~ oldest swimming pool in Singapore (at river valley area). The walls of the pool is not tiled at all, you can see raw cement with algae growing out, and the "drains" were full of mosquitoes. I was crying when i saw the pool la, but dad pushed me into the pool and commanded me to swim to the finishing point. Of cos I cried harder and ask him to come save me! But he say I can only come up when I reach the finishing point, so I struggled and "thread water"... finally reached the point, and realised that's what swimming is all about.

Ok, out of point.

So my moral of the story is the way he teach me a skill is always very straight to the point and harsh. The love and I were in shock when we realise I have to drive along the expressways (which is like darn dangerous and scary for me can???). But dad insisted I start the engine and leave. Argh!

But of cos its good! Unknowingly, I've conquered places like Suntec and Vivo! I can drive there le! HAHAHA!

So, eventually I decided to make the best out of it... Jiayou! Some pictures of my virgin drive today! Haahaa!

The Love and I before the start off...

Anxious but still have to pose for cam...

Adjusting my mirrors...

Almost ready...

Leaving my home!

Waiting for the pedestrians...

Turning into Benjamin Sheares bridge!

The love actually took a video of me without me knowing!!! Arghhh! But its good la, can save it as a momento! Haha... my first Benjamin Sheares attempt! Please pardon the radio and the stupid sound that I produced near the end of the video when a car suddenly appears beside me. BWHAHAHAAHA.

From Geylang to Telok Blangah, we took the Nicoll Highway, Benjamin Sheares and ECP (is it correct? I haf no freaking idea hahaha).

From Telok Blangah, Dad told me to go by CTE so that I can get more exposure to the roads! We took the longer route so as to let me feel more and to learn la... After CTE we went out through Moulmein then McNair area, then Kallang, and finally back home!!! I must say I learnt a lot through driving long journeys like that!

.

A great start for 2007

2007-01-24T22:07:00.000+08:00

24th January 2007 - A wonderful day that I will always remember!!!

Why? Because I fared well for my DCM Microteaching! Received many positive feedbacks from classmates and tutor. Definitely lighten my burden for the day!

The 2nd and MOST IMPORTANT thing is.....

I PASSED MY TP!!!!!!!!!

Haha! The boyfriend and I passed our driving tests on our first attempts!!! There were actually 14 (including us) ~~testis~~ testees for our time slot. But I was shocked to see only 5 of us when we proceeded to watch the video (only those who pass will watch).

So its like, 9 failures and 5 passed. The bf and I were in the lucky 5!!! Haha... I am very happy now! CNY can drive lo~~~~~~~~

I would like to thank:
- Those of you who sent me good luck sms-es and telling me not to be a kancheong spider.

- Xin, who took the effort to make me a card wishing me good luck for my Microteaching and TP. So sweet rite? Hehe!

- Eve and Marie, for advising me not to get any points in the circuit.

- My DCE tutor, Ms Jessie Png, for announcing to the WHOLE CLASS that I am taking my test and giving me so so so much pressure (can you imagine if I failed and I have to face all of them?????????). On the other hand, its the pressure that made me very determined to pass too! So its a blessing in disguise!

- My future mummy-in-law, who helped me lots lots with my Microteaching materials the day before till 12 midnight, and prayed hard for the 2 of us to pass our TP.

- My Love, who helped me with the Microteaching materials as well, and continuously tell me we will pass and holding my hands firmly all the while before the test.

- God (is a general label for me, you dont expect me to type Guanyin Niang Niang or Da Bo Gong or Jesus rite???), for answering my prayers and blessing me with the luck of smooth traffic and the power of overcoming every stages in the circuit with zero points.

I'm now a qualified driver!!! Time to go buy p-plate lo!! *megawatt grin* Viv is a happy girl!!!!!!!!

However, I am sad because the pretty IC photo that I have prepared cannot be used!!!! That person said it is too red!!!!!! Walau sian... end up went to take instant photo. Looks like shit lor. Duh.

Just another entry

2007-01-06T11:58:00.000+08:00

Sorry for not blogging for almost 2 weeks... Its too cosy at home with the DVD marathons, nice food, and my bed. I've practically been slacking at home, meeting up with my peeps during the holiday i.e.

Settlers day with Xin, Silvia, and Christal.
Alleybar chill out with Michelle, Claudia, Xin, and Christal.
Going to Wanyu's place for some girly afternoon.
Dinner with Karen just before she moves to KL for work.
Xmas celebration with Xin, Silvia, and Christal.
Xmas celebration with Eve, Wanyu, and Jasmine (hereafter named The Girlies).
BBQ at home with my loves.
Mahjong session with the girlies.
KTV session with the girlies.

Not forgetting my hectic driving lessons as well as my Kickboxing sessions that I am estatic to say that it is finally over.

Rounding up for 2006 seems a difficult task for me as I have forgotten what really happened. I'll just write down what I remember la...

At the beginning year, there a terrible thrash out with one of the friends whom usually hung out with the girlies. I was disappointed things did not work out, but I am glad after such a long time I managed to at least go back to talking terms with her again. Even though its always hi bye. There were times when I was looking at our old photographs, listening to some emo songs and I immediately have the urge to tell her I just pray all the best to her in whatever things she do. But somehow after I express myself I am held back by her sorta cold replies. But at least there was some talking. It's good.

During Feburary, an event marked a significant milestone of my 23 years on earth. I managed to perform @ The Esplanade for the Accapella, Choir, and Sing & Strum which simply means my Solo piece. It was also a night of pure happiness and touching moments because most of my friends came to support me (they have to pay for the tickets somemore), and most importantly, My Family & My Future Family (the Love and his family la) all came! Can you imagine my love and gratitude towards them? All of them, sacrificing their time and coming down to support me. It certainly made me feel loved. =)

Oh ya, The Love and I actually booked a chalet to celebrate Valentines Day. It's super funny because there's only the 2 of us, which we have made a pact never to do such a silly thing again. It's seriously boring and pathetic to see other big groups bbqing together and us 2 small fry cooking some food. Bwahahaha.

Us girlies had a chalet on the next day, so that I dun haf to go home and come back for chalet again. Just move next door. Haha am I smart or wat. =D It was definitely a fun-filled chalet and it definitely brought us closer to one another. We had fun relaxing at the Jacuzzi pool, bbqing food, watching vcds (but end up falling asleep), attempting to eat marshmallows in chocolate fondue (but got bad sore throat cos of the burning chocolate), and eating prawns for breakfast (are we in the right mind or wat?).

The next big thing I can remember will be the Love's and my holiday @ Taiwan. This is the first time we did not go Bangkok (haha) and I'm glad we chose this place (even though Bangkok is still our favorite). Firstly there was no communication barrier, it is so much simple for F&E peeps. Secondly, the food there is damn nice la. Thirdly, we have experienced the world's fastest elevator that can shoot up to 89 storeys within 30 seconds (do your calculations) with amazing light show in the lift. Which means we have been to Taiwan's tallest building - the Taipei 101. Fourthly, we took a ride on the World's Second Tallest Ferris Wheel. It is super scary la, when we are stuck right at the peak and the cold wind gushing against our carriage producing the creaking sounds. Argh. But overall, it is a super memorable vacation.

Followed by Mel's ROM. The first ROM I attended and I am so touched by the pure and amazing love that Melissa and Lance share. So I was very gan dong that I almost teared when they said their vows and seal it with a kiss. Awwww.

It was my birthday next, with a nice celebration with the girlies having lunch and games @ Settlers before heading to Mac'Nonner to have a birthday party. Hahaha. Had a great gathering with my sec 4 peeps too, many attended so I had a good chance catching up with them. Not forgetting the Flaming Lamborghini they ordered for me as a treat for the Bday Girl la. My virgin attempt k? *Sounds so wrong* =P

Then my Teaching Assistantship. Though it lasted about 1 month, I learnt so many things from the teachers there, and I must say I am freaking lucky to have met my Cooperating Teacher, Mrs Ho. She is an angel to me. We joke, we laugh, we talk about new recipes for baking, we talk about what food to get for the party for my P5 class, we talk almost about everything. We go shopping for party stuff together and have Hi-tea. Bwahahah. Cute ya? She taught me many many things, gave me chances to practise before the actual observation, help to support a bond between the kids and I, most importantly, to include me in their activities (making me feel a part of them) such as the NE show. It's another first time in my whole life to actually bring a class to watch the NDP - especially the last in Kallang Stadium. So its super unforgettable. I shall stop talking about my TA for now, I can ya dah non stop about it k.

25th September marks our 6 years together. I thought it will be a simple lunch and movie affair but the Love has surprised me with another bouquet of Gerberas (one of my favorite flowers). We had lunch at Pariss and I really (I mean really) feast on their grilled salmon! I couldnt count how many plates I ate! Bwahahahaha. I bought him a Braun Buffel wallet since his old one is cracking. He got me the wedding dolls and said that we shall open it on our wedding day. Remember my pullips? Heehee

Another good thing I did in 2006 is that I FINALLY started reading. I mean fiction books. I hate fiction actually. For all my silent-reading periods in school I have been staring onto the same page of the thin thin storybook and day dreaming. This year I dunno why but I am kinda influenced by Eve and Jas. So I started on a novel and told myself I must complete it. I was surprised that I fell in love with the story. So that boosted my interest and I tried to borrow similar books for a start - Romance. Read books that are of my interest before moving to other genres la. Haa

That's about it la, the rest I have already mentioned it at the beginning of this post.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

My resolutions for 2007:

1. Pass my TP test.
2. Get good grades.
3. The Love and I can earn more money, save up.
4. Hope for better friendships to fluorish.
5. All my friends and love ones in perfect health and happiness.

My wish

2006-12-20T22:28:00.000+08:00

Dear Santa,

I feel so lonely and unimportant. I feel sad. I wallow in self-pity.

I wish I can have a bestie who reciprocates.

I wish I can have a bestie whom I can share all my happiness and sorrows with.

I wish I can pop over to my bestie's place just for a simple girly chat or rollin' in her bed with some magazines.

I wish I can have a bestie who can share the fitting room with me when we go shopping.

I wish I can have a bestie who will genuinely be encouraging in my times of fall.

I wish I can have a bestie who thinks I am important.

Not 5,6, or 10.

All I ask for, is 1. Just 1. Just 1 sincere bestie.

Lots of love and still waiting,
Viv

My dearest fren, Wanyu, has officially started her accessories customisation blog!

I just saw the new range of accessories and their prices! Definitely reasonable! I personally think the best thing is that you can tell her the design you want so its really one and only one! Very unique! I bought a customised brooch and hp chain! HUR HUR I'm a happy girl!!!

The session of hp chain customisation!

Oooo I forgot to mention the very very preety necklace-cum-lanyard! I used it during my practicum for my access card and so many colleagues complimented! *throws smug look* hahahahah Some pics for u to see! Nice black n red crystals with stars! heehee

Yesterday was a disappointment-struck Sunday, I can find no kakis to go to the Singapore Expo with me! Bleah~~~ As a result, I missed the Adidas Post-season sale as well as the Loreal warehouse sale. *Sigh* It's not as if I cannot go alone... I do enjoy shopping alone! Just that for a warehouse sale, you definitely need someone with you, so that you can dig for the treasures and someone look after the stuff that u want... I'm sure you guys get wat I mean! heh~~ But I comforted myself by being a nice future daughter-in-law =D hurhur... I brought some stuff that I bought for my future mummy-in-law to my Love's place.

On my way I realised I can go chinatown for some shopping since there's a direct bus from their place. Woohoo! Thank God for that great idea! Suddenly dark clouds seem to disappear from my gloomy Sunday. Hiak hiak. After passing her the stuffs (and some chatting), off I go to my next destination!

Hopped onto a cooling double decked 143 and enjoyed my journey thouroughly. The 143 route naturally let me indulge in reminiscence of our old dating days (i.e. when I was still staying at Telok Blangah.), we used to take 143 very frequently, as we were town-crazers then. He will take 143 and meet me at my bustop, then we will go orchard to hang out. I certainly enjoy the simple things we did on bus - like holding hands, lying on his shoulder, arm against arm, chit chatting, and simply just enjoying the view. Awww lovey dovey.

It is not as if we no longer do all these, it is just that nowadays we always take the MRT. Just imagine the baby prams, the elderly squeezing around hoping someone will give up their seats, the FCs, the FIs, and the FMs all squeezing and squeezing! You tell me, how to romantic like that??? Duh.

Oops, digress.

I am so happy that I have a new-found-fav-haunt!!! Heehee, the shops above the Peoples Park Complex are nice! But I have my fav! It looks old and dirty, but it actually has tonnes of treasures waiting for charms-lovers to go unravel!!!

I love the currently-in-fashion gold necklaces paired with gold charms. Hurhur. But I was contemplating, because they are simply too expensive. The online ones are ex, the ones selling in the malls are ex. Any accessory that costs 20 and above is expensive to me la, which I definitely won't buy la.

So I was saying about this shop, its good because you can choose to DIY or the uncle will help you fix everything up. You can instruct him how you want it to be, or he may recommend how to arrange the chunks. heehee there are lots of retro charms, diamontes, and other miscellaneous decorative stuff that you can attach to your necklace. Above all these, they have quite a few types of chains you can choose from, gold, silver or even bronze and black.

Of course I will not give up this opportunity! I chose the accessories that I wanted, comprising of gold and mysterious black. Perfect for my girl's night out to hit town this coming Thursday! I've got myself a 3D mosaic heart, a super nicey cat with diamonds, and a jingling bell (perfect for christmas too!!!) Haha. I actually decided on 2 other charms to attach below, but eventually gave 'em up because I want a simple necklace so that I can match more clothes! =D

Below is the close-up picture of my charmy!!! Of cos it looks better in reality! Haha

This whole charmy baby for just $14!!! Absolute worth!

My Sunday is not that bad after all, isn't it? =)

Happy 74 Months!

2006-11-25T23:16:00.000+08:00

Attended our 2nd kickboxing class yesterday. I was late again due to my usual wait-for-20-minutes-for-a-freaking-bus disaster! Poor Shuxin have to wait for me from 630plus till 715!!! The worst part is she was attacked by the commando-trained mosquitoes living in the shrubs at the CC entrance. I counted, and there were 9 stings! Sorry for being late, my dear. =(

After the HUR-HUR-HAA-HEE (kuai4 shi3 yong4 shuang1 jie2 gun4) front/side/jump kicks, punches, jex-es, and scissors (there were more but i forgot the names), I was literally relaxing myself by lying flat on the parquet floor while others are doing the crunches and stuff. Talk about lazing around... duh. Xin was such a sweetie to give me a box of Pocky after the class. Definitely brighten my ~~day~~ night! *Hiak Hiak*

Went to Bugis alone to collect some stuff from a friend, with the main objective of buying some dessert to prepare a surprise 74 monthniversary mini celebration for the Love. Cheesecakes never fail to put a smile on his face, and thick chewy fudgy chocolate brownies are my favourite! =D So I got 2 of them from TCC! Hurhur

I hurriedly took the train back to hall, hiding the ttc bag and the cakes in some other plastic bags of mine. After reaching hall, the Love was busy mugging, while I place the cakes in the fridge without his knowledge. The Love then decides to relax himself for a while by watching Survivor. We root the AITUS!!! HURHUR! He was very engrossed in the show, while I was waiting impatiently for the clock to strike 12. *Evil grin*

Stephanie was voted out becos of her undying love for homely smashed photos. What crap. She should have known big mouth doesnt help her in staying in Cooks for 39 days! Duh. The show ended and it simply means it's 12! Haha! With a strategic plan in my mind, I nagged at the Love for being stinky and pushed him to bathe. With my best-female-artiste acting skills, he did not get suspicious at all. So off he went for his shower.

I locked the door (just to prevent him from opening the door if I have not got things ready) immediately and started preparing the surprise. Clearing the messy table was a tough job, because I had to make sure I did not mess up his lecture notes, past year exam papers, and watever else.

Carefully, I arranged the romantic cherry-red tealight candles into a heart-shape formation. Then I placed the beautiful cheesecake in the middle (this is the proverbial smart-alec stunt, which you will learn about it later) so as to confirm the formation before lighting the candles.

Then, I started lighting the candles carefully and hurriedly. I was afraid the Love might come back anytime! Grrrr! I was pretty amazed by how the end product look like. The setting is so romantic. Heeheehee. Thinking that there's still time, I wrote a ~~card~~ ~~notice~~ ~~poster~~ what-ever you call it so that the Love will know at the first look what occasion we are celebrating. I blu-tacked the thingy to a pencil holder so that it will stand, and I switched off the lights.

OH-SO-ROMANTIC. A perfect ambience for lovers to fall in love all over again. I imagined how the Love will react after seeing all these, how I will him a big beary hug, or scream SURPRISE!!!!!, or plant a light peck on his cheeks. I gave a squeal in delight. hurhur silly girl.

After the hippoty-hop around the room, I realised the chocolate curls were broken becos of the intense heat from the candles!!! (remember the smart-alec stunt?) I actually forgot the effect on the cake! DUH. super angry with myself. I placed the choclate curls back onto the cake, then onto a plate and I lifted the plate high up so that the air-con is cooling it (just imagine statue of liberty).

It was then I hear footsteps approaching my room. I recognise the foosteps, and I'm sure the Love's back. I immediately sprung into action by placing the cake right in the middle of the formation, unlock the door, and hid behind the door (hoping he doesn't squash me to death with the huge strength when he opens the door). He opened the door, came in, and gave a loud and long WAAAAAAAAA. Teehee. A sense of satisfactory.

"Surprise! Happy 25th!" I said excitedly, and I felt very loved when I see his happy face and him giving me a big beary hug instead. Pure bliss. =) He whipped out his loyal Sony cam-phone to take pics of the setting. I am glad he loves it. Awwwww~~~

We took turns taking pics and the Love suggested we blow out the candles. The 2 of us happily blew the candles and I proceeded to switch on the lights. The Love and I were a little shocked by the aftermath. Hahaha (refer to picture below).

Despite the little hiccups, our 74 monthniversary mini celebration rounded off happily with the air of love in our room. I Love You, Eggs. Happy 74 Months. =D

The romantic set-up.

The Love and the set-up.

Me and the set-up.

Blowing out.

The Love was so happy the he blew with mega power strength. The Aftermath.

I love changing their hair style/color, changing their makeup, sewing clothes for them, as well as doing up their cosy home (beds, curtains, furniture). Yeap, I have a doll house to let them 'stay' in. Heehee =D One more thing, they all have names, specific personalities and occupations. Hurhur.

Cabrina's 21st

2006-11-13T12:03:00.000+08:00

Attended Cab's birthday bash last Saturday! I was very guilty as I arrived super duper late... Bleahhhhhh I spent almost 3 hours just to travel to and fro! OMG... i took the train until my butt wanna chaotah lor... and I have to squeeze with the FIs!!!! Tamade!

Okok I'm very out of point. Let me continue with cabsie's bday...

I reached the place, and I was pleasantly surprised that Cab looks amazing that day!!!!!!! Of course I dont mean negatively! You should see the pic of her driving license lor... DAMN PREETY!!!!!

Argh... I'm outta point again. Ok... so the beautiful and radiant babe wore a very preety victorian(at least to me la) dress with chunky necklace and nice victorian earrings! I love the turquoise!!! Hurhurhur

Her hair was funkily styled and make-up nicely done. Clad in preety dress and heels with such a preety face, I was squealing when she saw me! telling her excitedly about how beautiful she is. Bwahahahah I dunno why she squeal when she see me too. haha

After I got my seat with the NIE peeps, I'm glad I manage to do some catching up with the frens I have not much chances to talk to them in school... Raymond, Banhoe, Lina, Susan, Waitheng etc etc

Teased Banhoe and Raymond as usual... bwaahaa lots of laughter la! Then Cab and Norman went to each table to take pictures... its so "wedding-dinner" can??!?!?! Haha they practically look as if they are practicising for the toasting! ROFL

Our group photo!

It was then time for cake cutting! When I saw the cake i just gasp and shouted to the peeps at my table "Lana Cake"!!!! Woohooooo I like!

The delicious cake.

Cab and her love ones.

Singing the birthday song!

After cutting the cake, cab gets ready for her family-birthday-tradition thingy i.e. to get saboed la. BWAHAHAHAHAAHA

To drink 3 bowls of Kahlua (i dunno wats that... but I tink damn strong)

plus dunkin' in the pool...

plus the ultimate ROJAK SAUCE!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah... the poor girl has to undergo all these, while the rest of us just stood at the opposit end of the pool to watch! Bwahahahaa we are sooooo kind. We even bade farewell to Cab while she dunks into the pool. *Evil grin*

Hurhur... it was a night of fun and laughter! We then bade each other goodbyes and headed our way home...

While waiting for the train, I took this pic... cos I tink my legs look slim and long in it. HAHAHHAHAHHA I love NEL. Do you know the trains in NEL ALWAYS make you look slim????? Hurhur

Then i bought supper back for the love!

Good night all. Love ya. =)

2006-11-09T00:21:00.000+08:00

IT'S BEEN CONFIRMED!!!

Finally I stopped procrastinating! Xin and I have registered for Kickboxing classes! Bwahaha... will officially start on 17 Nov... I'm so excited!!!

Well, because I can never successfully finish a course without a kaki. All my baking courses I attended with my cousin and aunt!!! HEHE

YAY!!! KICKBOXING WO LAI LE~~~~~~~~~

Drowning in assignments!

2006-11-02T20:57:00.000+08:00

Although we are considered really lucky to have just a test and one assignment left (compared to those having exams), I STILL FEEL SO MISERABLE!!!!!!!!

The freaking assignment itself is enough to kill me. so many damn things to do, and instructions are so confusing (whats new?), to make things worse, the test is just 2 days before the freaking submission of the assignment! Shorten my time to do that stupid assg la... hai

My room is also in a mess now... by the on and off binging of snacks, watching tv, napping, watever! BLEAHHHHHHHHHHH

I took a super ugly but studious photo just now, for self entertainment. BWAHAHAHAHA

Don't ask me when I started wearing specs... I STILL have my perfect eyesight! The specs that I'm wearing actually is to prevent too much UV or watever rays that the laptop reflects. So its just purely for protection... Mum insisted getting it for me 6 years ago when I started poly cos I'm in IT mah...have to face computer everyday...

Its freaking disgusting actually cos the lens already kinda turned yellow... haha! Okok enough of the rubbish that only I find it funny...

For all my precious babes out there, hang on! It'll be over soon! Can't wait for all the post-semester celebrations! bwahahahaha!!!

Eventful Saturday

2006-10-23T23:32:00.000+08:00

Last saturday was so eventful! one of my cousins finally hold her customary wedding! Bwahahahha... not finally la... what I mean is, her bf husband and her have ROM for quite some time already, and the house is nicely renovated already... but took so long to hold her customary... hmmm...

Had buffet lunch at her place, and as usual, my aunties are more nervous than the bride! cos they get to drink that magical tea ma... 38 38 38... hahah

Anyway, I think I have told some of you about my other cousin... she is an actress of Hongkong TVBI... The only ting i can remember about her is that she is the Miss Singapore in 1990, or is it 1991... forgot liao... haha... I'm surprised she's back and of cos we took some photos for remembrance before she flies back again!

I've always thought she is some extra in the hongkong shows but I'm amazed by the reactions of my DCM girlfriends! Surprisingly all of them knew my cousin and gasp in shock over the fact that SHE IS MY COUSIN. Argh... please dont ask me what shows she starred in because I dont watch her shows nowadays... at the beginning our family is still very excited over that issue and die die will watch her shows everytime! But after so long, the excitement just die down liao... bwahahah

Myself, Eileen, and my love.

Eileen and my bro.

The bride and my niece, Jovina...

Preety Jovina!

The youngsters(including my love and I ok!!!) group photo

Hehe... remember my cute cute niece I've mentioned before? The one who came to Earth during our exam period last sem... hee she has grown so much! So preety and cute! Bwahahah

My preety angel, Jomaine (Jovina's younger sis)...

My cutest & chubby niece!!! She stoning liao...

Growing up!

Jomaine attempts to kiss Biao(3) Yi(2).

Our studio-makeover pic! She is so photogenic! Did you realise she knows how to look at the cam? Every picture she looks at the camera! Bwahahaha

After lotsa playing, its time to tuck her to bed...

The love showing his fatherly side. As I look at him ~~playing with Jomaine~~ tucking Jomaine to bed, I can't help but to imagine him taking care of our baby next time. Bwahahha.

The afternoon ended when all my aunties go down to the neighbourhood salon to "set" their hair for the dinner.

The love and I proceeded to meet Jas, and off we go to Eve's birthday bash! We had a wonderful time @ Settlers Cafe playing games, eating and drinking (what else do I enjoy? haha).

While playing games...

Eve's preety cake!

Make a wish... Make a wish...

Our group photo!

Hee... it was certainly an eventful saturday!!!

The haze

2006-10-07T20:43:00.000+08:00

Yeah... the haze is killing me! The whole day I've been sneezing non stop and actually gotten running nose now!

To think that my parents actually added joss sticks smoke and cigarette smoke at the living room! You see, I have actually closed all the windows and the kitchen door, surviving on the scarce air available in the living room. While complaining how bad the haze was, my dad happily lighted his cigarette and started smoking. As if that's not enough, he started burning joss sticks and do his routine prayers.

So its like, I am so suffocated by all 3 "smoke" in the living room! ARGHHHH

The PSI report on the news today shocked me even further! It hit 143!!!

*Sigh* I finally got my purchases from Taiwan into use!

Haha... I'm now deciding if I should wear this to school if the PSI doesnt decrease. Cos I certainly have a pretty sensitive nose!!! *BOOOO HOOOO*

Girlfriends Day!

2006-09-27T17:28:00.000+08:00

One month plus ago, the NIE girlies (Jas, Eve, and myself... Yu caouldn't make it due to family gathering)had our girlfriends day at my place! Our main objective was to play mahjong, but eventually, our girly traits still emerged! BWAHAHA
Eve use her curling iron and started working on Jasmine's hair. While I was busy digging all my make up and DIY mani & pedi treasures!!!

While Eve was still doing her hair, I couldn't stand the boredom and started working on Jas's nails! So Jas is like the superstar, with 2 hair and make up stylists working on her!

Jasmine's curls and nails.

It's a pity we did not do any make up that day, cos I left my make up bag in hall!
arghhhhhhh

After some time, we are finaly done with Jasmine's new hairstyle and nails. So Eve started curling my hair! *hiak hiak* While Eve and I were busy talking, Jas helped herself with my collection of CLEOs, HER WORLDs, I-mags, 8 days etc etc... After my hair's done, I did french manicure for Eve and I must say the colors certainly look good on her!!! *flaunts jealous face*

Eve's nails.

When two of us see her lying on my bed comfortably reading the magazines, we cant help but concluded that it was such a GIRLY day!!! Magazines, manicures, hair curls, bla bla bla! So fun!!! haha and we made a pact that we MUST do this again!

That is why we are gonna have a girlfriends day TOMORROW!!!!! *throws confetti* Heck the assignments for one day la!!! (even though I have not been doing anything since the first day of the recess week) This time, Yu will be joining us too! So it will be a full force thingy! Hehehe

We will meet for makan, then go her house chit chat, read mags, mani & pedi, hair styling, MAKE UP and finally dress up for our evening dinner and drinks at night!!! WOOHOOOO I can't wait!!!! It's gonna be very fun! Hehehehe

Awwww... I love my girlies!!! Thanks for being such lovely friends of mine! *Mega hugZ*

2006-09-22T11:12:00.000+08:00

Then one night 4 of us were chatting on MSN and within one night I became "BoBo", Jas became "BeBe", and Yu became "Baba"... lame right? haha Yu was saying "I dont want BaBa! Sounds like Baboon!!!!!!" so corny, but no choice ya? *winks*

Yesternight we were supposed to go for KTV after so many donkey months (eve and I actually lost count when was the last time we went!!!) but Eve was quite sway la... infected eye...at first I made a stupid suggestion and I thought she might kill me...

You see, I was already rofl, wat she said made me rf (roll further)!!!

My lovely angels!

2006-08-17T18:26:00.000+08:00

It was the first time of my life to actually attend the NE show as a teacher, and not a student. I really have to thank lady luck because I was the only trainee teacher who was given a chance to go! =) Furthermore, to go with the lovely angels of my favourite class!

It certainly was an enlightening and enjoyable experience, definitely UNFORGETTABLE! The weather was good, the class was well behaved, the parent helpers are so kind, the colleagues on duty were really caring, and of course, THE FIREWORKS WERE AWESOME! (of course cannot compare to those during the actual event la...)

The only thing I thought the management screwed up was the arrangement of schools to leave the stadium... My school is so near to kallang stadium and we actually reached school at 11.20pm!!!! -_-" I heard from someone (i forgot who) that her pupils actually reach school at 1.30am!!!!! OMG........ the management should really improve on this... rather than giving us apology letter after the event.

Anyway, some pics of us! =)
Note: The photos are all resized so please pardon all the cock eyes. teeheehee

My girlies and myself

While waiting for the mrt!

The lovely children in my group!

Not to forget take a pic of myself! (so eve... BIMBO)

The sky darkens gradually and the performance begins! But I cant really appreciate those performances... at least I took a finale pic la!

And fireworks time!!!

Now, tell me, who can forget such an experience? =) It definitely made my heart feel tingling sweet. *megawatt smile* They are all my precious! hehe (click on the pic below to see the bigger version)

Treated Meng & Pat to dinner @ NYDC Orchard. We had a good meal and did some catching up before heading to Alleybar. But sad to say we were late for Happy hour so there goes our Hoegaarden!! Bwahahahah... oh man... its been about 5 years that Pat and I really meet up. So its really nice to catch up with an old fren after such a long time! I'm glad our chemistry is still there, the 3 of us still cracked stupid jokes like what we did in the past and we still laugh like idiots over the most trivial things! Haha! Well well... They treated me drinks for that nite! Our booze and fingerfood:

Illusion
Cosmopolitan
Frozen Peach Margarita

I"m so glad I met this girl in poly days... really make my poly days not so miserable haahhahah I remember I had a hard time with my year 1 class cos I was not close with them at all!!! Hmmm... those were the days... After dinner we shopped at Fancl and really eager to get my facial care products there. Hoping to finish my current products so that can hurry up use theirs! haha but too bad shan's friend was not there so I decided to go some other time.

June

2006-06-08T13:20:00.000+08:00

Went to the IT show again on the last day. The bf got his PDA phone redemption thingy done and we proceeded to purchase my new router and range expander antenna for the wireless network in my house. Now I have faster wireless network, and I can surf using my lappie on the breakfast-on-bed mode!! *mega grinz* Dont get wat I mean? It simply means I can lie down on my bed and log on to the internet using the breakfast-on-bed table, enjoy my air con, and enjoy the TV all at the same time! Yay! no need to go to computer room... Haahaa

Then we went to have marvellous lunch. I miss my 2nd home so much. Sawadee Kha~~~

Omg. suddenly I realise my blog is always full of pictures of food! Arghhhh

Its seriously time for me to hit the Gym with dad, or go jogging with the bf, or simply just go solo swimming! *slaps forehead and scream inside me* Stop procrastinating, Viv!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

There are many activities planned in June! As of now:

07 June - Mahjong with the Girls!
08 June - Dinner with Karen
12 June - Dinner & Ktv with Sec sch tuition pals (SSTP)
13 June - Dinner with Meng & Pat
14 June - Lunch with the bf & his mum
16 June - Bdae celebration with the Girlies!
17 June - Sec 4/6 Gathering
18 June - My bdae & Daddy's day celebration with my family

Was talking to Winston on MSN and this was what he meant by Advance Birthday Greetings:

wtf.

*sigh* He simply reminded me that I'm no longer young, and I should SERIOUSLY DO SOMETHING TO MY LIFE! There are so many things I have yet to achieve la. sian.

My birthday has arrived within a glimpse of time. It seems like yesterday that I had a birthday surprise from my SSTPduring our bbq gathering. Becos I prepared some of the marinated food and most of the bbq stuff are left at my place. Everyone are supposed to meet up at my place then we leave for ECP together. But Enen was very very late. We waited for so long and she still hasnt arrive, I was then whining to Yan that she must be taking her own sweet time with her bf. I was fed up then. So all of us decided to go ahead to ECP first since En's bf drives. We went there and prepared everything. Start the fire, bla bla bla. It was then En finally arrived. I was pretty fed up cos she seems as if she isnt at fault, and she didnt explain y she was late. So i told myself "aiya forget it la just enjoy today with the group"

We then talk cock and ate lotsa food, totally enjoying ourselves. Then En n her bf went to buy drinks. They came back soon after that... and En was carefully carrying a cake with lighted candles on it. Tears just dropped immediately, cos I never had frens giving me surprise bdae celebrations before in my whole lifetime.En is never into baking and cooking. In a nutshell, she's not a girly girl who do all the girly stuffs la. What made me burst out crying was... She baked the cake herself. So when I realised she was so late becos she spent so much time baking a cake for me, I cried even harder!!!

Another surprise birthday celebration was from my sec sch pals. Meng, Eugence and bear bear bought a cake for me and secretly hid it with the Kbox peeps. While we were singing, bear went to turn off the lights cos he said the spotlights are making him feel very hot. Then suddenly the Kbox peeps came in with the cake! (but its still wrapped up in the box. still in the plastic bag somemore! duh -_-") It was then I realised my frenz made this surprise thingy for me. Despite the stupid mistakes from the Kbox peeps, I was very very touched, cos I din expect the 2 big guys are able to go cake hunting with Meng. bwahahahahaha

When I was in sec sch, I thought I was pathetic cos I was the one who always make surprises for other gfs. But no one does anything for me. But these frens proved me wrong. Now that I think back to last year, I feel blessed =)

2005 was a good birthday year for me. I had my first few birthday surprises of my whole life. Well, who doesn't love Surprises? =D

His favorite food

2006-06-06T00:27:00.000+08:00

The bf simply loves me preparing this for him. =D

Black Pepper Sirloin Steak with Brocolli and Viv's special mashed potato (with secret recipe)

Preparation for the big day

2006-06-02T22:51:00.000+08:00

Went for mani and pedi with her and her today. It was a great session overall! Our dear Mel is feeling excited and nervous enough, but I just love to make her more nervous! bwahahah Feel so happy for her... At first I was horrified when I saw my nail color for my toes cos it simply looks so AUNTIE!!! but well, its ok now... asked that girl to change color for me and all 3 of us did nail art!

Mel and I did the floral ones and Bim Eve did some double french thingy. Argh count her lucky to choose a $2 design! i can sense her evilish grin now~~ Overall I love my nail color for my hands! Hawaiian Love! Argh what a lovey dovey season!

Pardon the focus. I love my sheets too much *heh heh*

Oops. Did I mention pardon the ugly fingers too? =D

Holiday trip 18th May - 22nd May 2006, Taipei

2006-05-28T22:12:00.000+08:00

We were glad our hotel room was clean and nice for the amount we paid. The toilet was totally clean, and there's a mini water cooler..with both hot and cold functions for ur water. You dun even haf to go to the corridor to take water!

The Miramar Fairy Wheel is the World's 2nd largest Ferris Wheel! We took it at night...so it was very cooling, and the point is when we were at the very very top, there was this strong gush of wind and our carriage are literally kinda swinging!!! *heart drops out* argh!!!

Aiya the food... self explanatory...dun haf to say so much hehe. Another highlight is the National Palace Museum. They have a total of 750,000 national treasures! They have so many items that they have to change all items every 3 months. I was stunned to know that, if you want to finish seeing ALL of them, you have to spend a whopping 10 YEARS!

As for the hot spring... I would really love to go to the public pool in the day! This way, you can enjoy the scenic view and the natural cool breeze! But the thing is u have to go NAKED.... omg I cant imagine myself exposing all my fats to other women. DUH DUH DUH

Here comes the culture shock:
1. The people queue up and REALLY keep right on the escalator. (refer to pic)
2. The people queue up in the drawn lines for the MRT, and REALLY let passengers alight first then slowly move in.
3. The train's crowded but there were just 2 empty seats that no one wanna sit - cos they are for Elderly, Pregnant Women, and Children.
4. Macdonalds doesnt serve chilli sauce. (Eve I think u will die there haha)
5. They dont provide plastic bags when u buy things. Either you bring your own, or you buy a plastic bag from them. (Enforcing recycling I think)

Yes Eve, the Hello Kitty KTV machine sux to the max. we have to press the buttons to navigate you see, so while I was singing, my bf keep pressing la... BUT THE STUPID THING IS THIS... everytime u press a button, it produces a loud "DEH" sound. So u can just imagine la... when I sing, then theres this stupid continuous DEH DEH DEH DEH DEH DEH DEH DEH sound. -_-"

Photos intensive! Pls be patient with the loading speed =D

I'm back!

2006-05-23T23:40:00.000+08:00

Yoohooo everyone! I'm back!!! *throws confetti on myself* muahahaha... I reached SG last night but immediately zonked out once I reached home! Didnt even unpack my luggage! Too tired from all the walking, walking, and walking! *throws tired look at En* how can you expect me to post pictures immediately? haha! futhermore most of the pics are with the bf... so I guess u guys just haf to wait when he come to bunk over on friday! =D

Anyway, this trip is not much of a shopping trip. Everything there is so freaking expensive!!! Comparing the prices, a bar of Mentos cost 60cents here, but it cost $1.60 there! Maybelline's eye make up remover is $7 here, and it cost $10 there! heart pain sia! The bf and I bought nothing much for ourselves, we can even count it with our 10 fingers!

So disappointing rite? hai... Perhaps its because we are too used to our 2nd home aka Bangkok. Cos EVERYTHING (I mean really everything!) is so cheap there! its definitely our Shopping + Eating paradise!!! We kept comparing Taipei to Bangkok, making ourselves feel sadder... aiyah but we told ourselves its more of an experience la, we REALLY enjoyed eating the food there! ate lots n lots n lots of different famous food! I'm actually not much of a sight-seeing person, but amazingly I enjoy sightseeing than shopping in Taiwan! its definitely more enjoyable cos the prices of things there are so expensive!

We were very lucky to reach there just after the Tai feng is over! So cooling! just like Genting! hehe our tour agent told us to prepare jackets just in case, and its so coincidental that a tai feng just finish! so our jackets came into use! the bf certainly enjoyed the climate there =)

For this trip, we bought lots of food. food, food and food. (Angela you might kill me when u see this =D) We spent so much money on food! Hahahahah

P.s: Ade, if you really wanna go to Taiwan for shopping, let me just remind you the things there are so costly! But if you are interesting in all the sightseeing and exploration of their culture, then I encourage u! =D

Dinner and Dance 2006

2006-05-18T00:06:00.000+08:00

I'll be flying in less than 8 hours time! To cut today's story short, we finally had the DnD that our committee have been planning since Feb! And it was a great hair day! with my make up, nice hair, and my ultimate act-cute-astonished-look to enlarge my eyes, I look good! bwahahahahaa

A great chill-out nite

2006-05-17T01:37:00.000+08:00

Met up with dearie En after finishing all the shit work for the DnD! Settled our dinner at BK @ Orchard Emerald... Mushroom Swiss is still my all-time favourite! =D When we were eating we saw this funny guy with an injured-cum-bandaged ring finger, who's trying to use the stylus to doodle his pda phone. Walau the scene is damn funny la! especially after the mimicking from En! Arghhhhhh hahahahaha!!

After that we shop around at Centrepoint for the electrical adapter that i wanna buy for my Taiwan trip, but to realise the adapter for Taiwan and Thailand is the same, which I already have it -_-"

So after the "shopping" we went over to Alley Bar for some drinks just before the Happy hour ends! *mega grin* Hoegaarden was on 1-for-1 promotion, so why not? hehe so we got the outdoor seats and I sure think that was my comfort zone =) I find it kinda balinese, maciam resort la... (thats if I just keep looking at the plants on my right, duh.)

Then that En immediately 2 magnum size!!! Walau i was bloody shocked to see the size of the mug can!!! its damn big!!!

It was very nice to chill out after such hectic days...just simply relax, sit there, talk cock... argh... thats life! hehe En then ordered Peach Magarita (I ordered none, cos I was too full from that blardy big glass of beer can!!!), and I concluded I'm definitely not a beer-lover! =) I certainly prefer Peach Magarita! Hiak hiak! Shall try other flavours next time I go there!

P.s: Eh Ade, y u always drink lychee flavour ah? Last time at Zouk u also ordered Lychee something... duh -_-"

Busy Holidays

2006-05-12T11:39:00.000+08:00

5th May 2006
Met up with the sec. sch tuition group pals for bbq and steamboat at Marina South! Finally can eat n eat carefreely without any worries! It was really good to catch up with these kakis... I think the last time we met up was during Eileen's birthday on December!!! After dinner we went to Marina Pier as suggested by En... all of us packed into her beau's car and as a regular passenger, once i got comfortable with my seat, I grabbed hold of the handle. Jay Chou's initial D song started playing, and with the windows open. The strong breeze, heart-pumping music (cos the bass is to power!), plus the "drifting" makes us all high!!! oops, ok perhaps its just me. (throws proud look at Yan) bwahaahahaha I definitely love the way he drives. Dangerous, but I like. =D

6th May 2006
It was my dear niece, Jomaine's full month celebration! She is such a cutie pie can! When i reached there she was still sleeping, but, certainly very very cute! She has lots lots lots of hair haha. Too bad I didnt take any photos cos she was sleeping all the while!!! (My family believed that when you take pictures of a person (especially with flash) when he/she is asleep, his/her soul will be "scared" off the body and he/she might not be able to wake up after that) That explains why I did not take any pics!

The only time she woke up was when my aunt and I were saying that she keep sleeping. She just suddenly open her eyes to look at all of us, and SMILED!!!! Bwahahaha all of us burst out laughing and said how vain is she! Play hard to get ah~~~ Babies just seem to be able to know what we are saying even if they're asleep! i remember when my bro was still a baby, my mum was carrying him then we were saying "didi u very naughty leh! bla bla" then he burst out crying!!!!!

7th May 2006
My guy and I always start out Sundays with Mac breakfast, or the prata near my place! After brekkie we will always go to the library to read some books that we enjoy la. Then we went to Paradiz Centre for the long-awaited KTV session!!! Nice nice nice! finally can relax...We have to go to THE CATHAY to try out really soon! Haven explore yet...

8th May 2006
Monday was a gathering with other girlies in sch! Shuxin, Christal, and Linda! Too bad Sylvia cant make it at the last minute. We started our day with lunch at Sakae Sushi! Yum yum! *shouts to Eve, Yu, and Jas* Lets have sakae student buffet soon!!! Haha... ok..shall not digress... So after lunch I brought them to the shop that sells the dolls that I collect and all 3 of them said "SO SCARY!!!!!!!" WALAU i was like "...". DUH!!!

We went shopping after that (as usual, this is really a girls thingy!), and followed by the sinful indulgence of Venezia! I had Mango sorbet and Belgium Chocolate! very nice! =)

Christal then suggested we go kbox... so off we go! walau we took lots of stupid pictures can? but I'll just show a few.. the rest are censored! bwahahah

After all the singing we went to Cafe Cartel at Raffles City to have cakes! 50% off ma... hehe me and my Aunty Aney's Chewey Fudgey Chocolate Cake!

Continued our chit chat session despite the restaurant is closing... went to the seats outside starbucks and chat chat chat till 2am! We were forced to go home cos there were too many mosquitoes feeding on us!!! BLEAH!!!

11th May 2006
Finally was able to meet up with my dear girls, Eve, Jas, and Yu! Had Fish n co for dinner! *Slurp slurp* Kbox session was called off as it was the eve of a public holiday so it cost us 21+++!!! so in the end we settled on playing Pool at marina square! Bwahahaha we are the White Ball Team! The Frog Princess has emerged... and I was busy singing "Congratulations...da da da da da" all night long! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

I think playing pool is a good time killing activity. As we pay only 5 bucks each and we actually can have fun for 2.5 hours! its worth it! Now, I'm looking forward to all the mahjong sessions and the ETP or Sentosa outing! Hehe

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm leaving on this Thursday for my Taiwan Holiday but yet I have not packed anything!!! OMG!!! I'm definitely excited for the trip! but yet, feeling quite lost as its our first time there. I heard we have to be naked for our hotspring session!! ARGH I DUN WANNA SHOW MY FATS TO OTHERS!!!

Beitou Hotsprings, XXXL Crispy Chicken Chop, Smelly Beancurd, Jin Yuan Pork Chop, Shihlin super long sausage, Mango Ice, Bathing Ape, Blythes, Clothes, Accessories, WO LAI LE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2006-05-05T01:03:00.000+08:00

- Waited 45 minutes for the freaking "shuttle bus"

- Have to pay for the shuttle bus (!?!?!?!?!)

- After paying, the freaking driver said "We will first go to Siglap, then to Katong......(after the whole singapore)... then to your destination."

- Finally reached the place, was expecting a meeting room or something but it was shitty.

- 2 mothers were feeding their babies and blabbering non stop about the john little and metro sale at MAX volume.

- Then I saw an Ah Pek wearing some super old fashion polo tee with orbiang brand sport shoes, carrying a fucking big bunch of keys on his neck. I thought he was the security or the janitor!

AND HE IS MY MUTHAFUCKING CHAR SIEW SOH.

First Of May

2006-05-04T22:38:00.000+08:00

Celebrated this public holiday with intensive shopping and a sumptuous dinner with Enen!!! This girl is really shopaholic! Just within 2 hours, she spent 300+++!!! my goodness... I cant bear with my money lor... argh..

Anyway bought 2 short sleeve shirts and 1 long sleeve shirt as there's a promotion! $50+ for 3 working shirts! very very cheap~~~ bwahaahahaha then went shopping for lingerie...we spent a solid 1 hour in the shop! walau that bloody promoter keep talking and talking...end up bought more n more n more... arghhhh

It was then dinner time and we decided on Billy Bombers since its been sometime since we ate that! Cheese fries! Yin & Yang! B52! *woohooo* nice nice nice! we were so full that we can feel out stomachs bloated that we cant walk properly! (ok I have big bloated stomach all the while -_-)

Because En just lost her precious diamond ring, I think she definitely need retail therapy to balance her emotions... after eating, we CONTINUED shopping! and she bought 1 pair of heels, and 1 pair of sandals, followed by 2 bags! Within 1 day she became member of Ero lingerie and Charles & Keith! haha I salute to her shopping attitude!

Then we ended the day by going to NTUC cos i needed to get groceries, and her goodie bf send me back to hall! save my cab money! yay~~~

OMG. THIS IS SUCH A PRIMARY SCHOOL STUDENT'S COMPO.

Date me!!!

2006-04-29T18:29:00.000+08:00

I have been super duper free these days... staying in hall...so bored that I have to re install Maple and Gunbound to play!!! Its been about 1 to 2 years I've touched them and now I actually download it again n play... u can imagine my boredom man!!!

Eve is so kind to give me company, and we actually met up for our taitai day yesterday. Caught 'The Art Of Seduction'! it's damn funny la! korean movies never fail to make me laugh hysterically and to squeal when i see the intimate moments! Eve and I were laughing like mad in the movie and we actually haf to use bags to cover our "laughter"! bwahahahaa !

After the movie we went to Jacks Place for lunch! We made a great discovery and strongly recommend all of u to go! They currently have student meal!! Its damn cheap. Why? Cos it includes 1 soft drink, Garlic bread, Soup of the day, Your choice of Maincourse, and dessert! All for just $6.50!!!!! We were so full after the lunch can! *burp burp burp*

Followed on was retail therapy!!! Got myself a puffy sleeve shirt, nice nice! Must prepare clothes for Practicum liao... Bought 2 G2000 shirts for my guy too, they were on sale! very cheap! usual price $50 and now only $19 each!! its such a great shopping day *mega grinz* went to Body shop to renew my membership too! bought everything at 20% off, and i got a free White Musk body spray! something like a welcome gift la.. then helped Yu buy her oceanus shower gel also... I bought strawberry body lotion!

All the shopping makes us tired, so we decided to go to Yakun Toast for some tea and kaya lo-ti with egg! *slurp slurp* its been so long since we sit down and have some snacks and chit chat! during lunch and tea, we talk about friendship, practicum, and were making plans for all our girls outings! argh... we must definitely enjoy our holidays!!!!

Erm, so the moral of the story is... I'm so bored and I seriously need dates out!!! dates like this! hahahaha

P.S.: My guy is so creative to use rubbish to do such things.

What can he do with this package box? He asked me wat was my favourite animal... and I sang the song with La Bi Xiao Xin voice "Da xiang, da xiang, ni de bi zi wei she me na me chang?"

And so he came up with this! A few days later we top up our cokes, and have spare packaging again, so this time, he decides to give Da Xiang a friend...

TA-DAH!!!! and I foresee we will have a zoo soon!!! haha

wtf. again.

2006-04-22T22:30:00.000+08:00

Apparently, Power ranger forgot his suit and came to Gao Ji for la mian and xiao long bao.

wtf.

2006-04-17T19:00:00.000+08:00

This is what my bf saw when he went to the toilet in the school library. He was so amazed, and at the same time, disgusted by the sight of it that he took a picture of this masterpiece. When he showed me the picture, I was also intrigued by the beauty of how this piece of shit is so well-laid on the toilet bowl and yet there was no sight of wiped toilet paper in the bowl. It is just not logical that if you wiped your ass and flushed the toilet, the shit should get flushed together. Hence this is what we consider the beauty of this piece of shit. Since this is found in the school library toilet, we conclude that this piece of art could be the work of a male art trainee teacher from NIE.

2006-04-11T01:03:00.000+08:00

Ok ok, I'm here to blog!!!

Just to tell u guys I'll be on break till Beginning of May.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

Signing off with my cutest niece who's born on 6th April! A whopping 4kg! *mega grin*

2006-03-29T23:45:00.000+08:00

It doesnt really matter where you go, but the people you go with...

2006-03-26T21:14:00.000+08:00

A great evening was spent with Cab and Christal the other day... enjoyed ourselves at Ding Tai Fung! I love the student meal they're having now! $9.80 for a drink, 3 xiao long bao and a choice of fried rice or any noodles! woohoo~~ After filling our stomachs with the sumptuous dinner, of course we need to have retail therapy to lift our poor spirits up since we've been so miserable for the past 2 weeks! Both of them got heels and sandals but I end up with nothing! *act-cute pout*

Once the clock strikes 7, its time for kboxing(term grabbed from eve)! We finally, and I seriously mean FINALLY, we made it! We've been talking about a kbox get-together since the 1st semester!!!! Yes, please worship our procrastinating skills!

Chris really sound like Jolin!!! and Cab definitely can handle guys' songs well! cab - actually ur vocal range very broad leh..... hmpf....
To think back... its really amazing how 3 of us can get along so well... different religion, different background, different size! haha we got XS, M and XL! BWAHAAHAAHAHAA

We definitely had a great time that nite! It was a nite with overloading information! Lots of secrets exchange that we keep reminding ourselves "KEEP EVERYTHING WITHIN THIS ROOM!" haha... Look forward to our next get-together!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jas's birthday was celebrated in a simple way, yet very exciting! We went to Cineleisure, had dinner st Cafe Cartel, followed by some shopping and then watched an exciting show! I personally like the twist in the story a lot, i love movies with a good plot! And seriously, Eve, who is supposed to 'protect' Yu, actually cringed in fear together!!!

After movie, we actually went to take neoprint! BWAHAHHAHAHAH We had such a busy time in there taking pictures, and editing pictures, not to mention a huge time was spent laughing hysterically in there! Walau if I'm the shop attendant I confirm angry with this bunch of siao char bo lor!!!

Yu and Jas

Eve and Me

Lovely us!!!

Hehe...shall wait for Eve to send me the scanned neoprints! We all look preety in there! Oh, Happy Day!

I am no longer who I am

2006-03-14T20:53:00.000+08:00

Reflections for GESL, reflections for DCM, reflections for SBA, reflections after reflections... But, when was the last time you had reflections of yourself?

I realised I am no longer like who I was 4 years ago. We had our happiest times 4 years ago. We used to be so loving, because we experienced the feeling of gaining back something so precious that we lost before. I was then a girl with a very kind heart, so kind that I even helped a snail crossed its path, because I'm afraid a cyclist or someone inconsiderate will step on it and crush it to death. I used to be someone who was cheerful and friendly, always cracking jokes with others, someone who was always there for him, whenever he feels down.

But I have changed. I have become such a monster. I snatch seats on the mrt (because I have gained so much weight, and my legs hurt everytime i stand long), I talk bad things about people in front of them so loudly (thinking that they should know their own bad points so that they can change them), I have such a black heart now, I get easily irritated when people knock onto me or whatever. I've become so intolerant, impatient, easily-agitated person. I have gained so much weight and I have a fucking humongous tummy in me that people think I am pregnant. I have lost all my self confidence. I feel like shit now.

I used to ask him this, "What do you like in me?"
He said, "You have a kind heart, and very caring towards others."
I asked him this just now, "After being together for so many years, do you still think there is beauty in me?"
He asked "how do you define beauty?"
I said, " it might not be in terms of looks, maybe the heart or anything"
He said, "erm... yes ba"

I dunno what he really thinks, but I think that is a default answer. He seems not able to tell me if I am still attractive to him in any way. I personally think I have become such a failure in life. I have become such a bad and evil person. I feel bad inside me. I think I will get my retribution soon. Who knows I have already got my retribution? for having this terrible fucking big belly of mine, and that he can no longer hug me by my waist with one hand. I am so useless.

Memories just keep flashing back as I listen to this song - Looking thru your eyes. Memories of the old times, at World Trade Centre, the sea, the stars, the merlion, the breeze, the one and only genuine and lovely heart-to-heart talk, all the precious Vivien Special gifts, the greatest care and love I had....

Star light star bright first star i see tonight...
I wish I could, I wish I might...

One more day!

2006-02-22T11:37:00.000+08:00

Just one more day!

Look at Eve's blog for a bigger view!

An unforgettable experience

2006-02-20T23:45:00.000+08:00

It was an unforgettable moment, and I know, the moments of my solo performance @ the Esplanade will always stay in my heart. The feeling, when I am right under the spotlight, everyone kept quiet, and just listen, really listen to me. certainly felt good, especially, my whole family was there. =) Those who've watched I Not Stupid 2, my parents are exactly like Jack Neo. For all my performances of my past till now, they have never seen it. They have not attended any of my performances. They seriously dont know I can sing. This is the first time my whole family came down to support me, and I felt great. =)

It definitely was a memorable experience. And of cos the different places that audience will never get to see. From the crew entrance, to the make up room, to the back stage, and to the stage. I will never forget this experience, and I am thankful, that I can tell my children next time that Mummy actually performed at the Humungous Durian before.

And it was until Eve dear mentioned, that I was in all 3 teams i.e. Choir, Acapella and Sing & Strum. Then I realised I was in all 3!!! Guess wat... I am the ONLY ONE in the whole whole team that presented all 3 teams! OMG!!! I get so much exposure! hahahaha I'm surprised, and happy of course.

To cut the story short, let the pictures say a thousand words!

Look at our Make-up room! We've got personal make up spaces! and the lights!!! OMG WE WERE LIKE SUPERSTARS!

OMG I'm so nervous!!! The performance is just 7 hours away!!! argh someone pls stab me!!!! Just like wat I told the girls, I reckon I will tremble when I walk to stage, with the pianist and audiences waiting for me! Once I tremble, my voice will tremble, then I cant hit the high notes, will go off key and sound breathless!!! Duh!

Wanyu said "Dear, if you really zao sia, people will throw tomatoes at you! =)"

Eve said "Its normal for you to be scared, but I'm sure you can do it! Just treat it our normal kbox session =)"

Jas said "You can play the perfect scene that is going to happen to u tmr in ur mind several times. By doing this, u'll be mentally preparing yourself for tmr's event. Cos u cannot strain ur voice at this point of time. It helps to psycho ur mind =)"

I definitely feel better after seeing all these messages! BUT, I'm still scared! bwahahahaha! And to make things worse, my rashes all came out today. =( Hai, really unlucky lor...

Anyway, I personally think today is a day that will mark down an impt part in my memory in the future =) My guy keep saying "How many opportunities does one normal person have, to perform a solo piece at Esplanade?" and that makes me ponder about it, and to tell myself to cherish tonight. =) I'm very glad all my closest family and friends will be here, except my sec sch pals... Eve, Jas, Wanyu, Cab & beau, Enen, Weijian, Ade, Eddie, my guy, his family, and my family. Not forgetting how Wanyu attempted to help me, by offering me her black dress. She even brought it to her chalet, but due to unforseen circumstances, I cant meet her up to see the dress, and haf to trouble her to bring it home again. =( Sorry dear!

Argh~ after saying all these I start to feel I'm really lucky, to have all these people behind me! I LOVE YOU! *mega hugz* and to thank all of you, I will put up a pic of myself (for the 1st time) on my blog! Haha (as if pple wanna see!)

Yes, Eve dear! I went back to buy cosmetics and I got a free makeover and photoshoot! bwahahahaa~~ Awwwww such cute CHUBBY cheeks!!!! -_-"

I'm so touched...

2006-02-07T21:15:00.000+08:00

Was referred to the National Skin Centre today. They said I have very serious Feng Mo. I was horrified by how I look when i woke up this morning. The red patches have spread to my whole body. My scalp, face, neck, body, hands, legs all have red swollen patches.

Its very itchy and painful... and i think my immune system is very low now too... sian... whole body aching maciam did lots of exercise... and I feel so weak! Keep sleeping... and i'm so sad too! the pple see me on the streets look at me as if I got HIV or wat loh.... haiz.... I look horrible lah...

But great things happen today too!

I realised there were many great friends around me, and they really make me feel very touched. I would like to thank all of you for:

Cabrina - the constant smses to check that I'm ok, and helping me take notes.

Christal - helping me take notes and worksheets in class.

Evelyn - the constant smses, and dont mind teaching me wat I missed in class, and even lend me your tutorial answers.

Jasmine - volunteering to lend me all your lecture notes and photocopy your tutorials, and even suggested the "satay fan".

Wanyu - calling your dad and check out what I should not do, what i should not eat, and the constant reminders to drink more water.

=) these maybe simple gestures, but to me they are acts of selflessness. This incident made me feel so touched that I have such kind frenz around. And it definitely makes me cherish our friendship even more. Thanks babies! =) *MEGA HUG HUG*

As you wont be seeing me for the whole week (and i know you gers will miss me to bits) I shall show you my sufferings. haha. but pls take note it may cause discomfort.

Neck seriously under attack

Left leg

Right leg

No more appetite for food right? No more mood to seeing me right? Haha. I shall go sleep now. The medicine is taking effect.....

A great Pre-CNY celebration

2006-01-26T15:56:00.000+08:00

Mischelle, Clarissa and I have been telling one another "eh lets have cup noodles together tonite for supper!" but it has been delayed again and again due to clar's super late nite TKD sessions, shell's never-ending LoveBites meeting, and me falling asleep early everytime.

So on Tuesday (we failed to eat supper together AGAIN), we promised each other that we are gonna eat 'Tuan Yuan Mian' (reunion cup noodle supper) together on Wednesday(last nite la) by hook or by crook to celebrate CNY!

haha during my meeting in school, I suddenly recalled Jess has a hotplate at her room! Then thoughts link here link there, and that triggered me to sms Clar n Shell that maybe we should just have steamboat for reunion dinner! bwahaahaahaa

Clar was obviously excited about the hotplate! So we have confirmed that we shall eat Reunion Steamboat Dinner. After meeting Angela accompanied me to Nanyang Supermarket to get the ingredients, grabbed all the stuff that I want and hurry back to hall.

By then it was around 9pm already, we actually wanted to eat at their room, but afraid that their room will smell after that, so we finalised that we should just eat at the corridor n block everyones' way! Bwahaaha so Shell and I were busy preparing the food and the hotplate conscientiously, while waiting for dear Clar to come back...

Waited till 10+ finally see her lo....by then we were so hungry liao! Argh! we wasted no time and immediately get our rice and eat steamboat! Yay!

Even though the food was not very fantastic, I enjoyed it a lot! Nice breeze and cooling weather, Nice company, simple and very "home" food. I definitely cherish these simple yet wonderful moments that make my hall life so memorable! =)

Some pics of our simple but very sweet reunion dinner last nite:

Our hotplate reunion steamboat dinner @ the Corridor!

Our food!

The best discovery of the day!

2006-01-20T23:07:00.000+08:00

Finally its the end of the week! Went to meet Eggs @ JP right after lessons and had dinner. After that we went to Bugis village cos I gonna have my brows done! Tmr's the performance and my voice sux now. its coarse and my throat is terribly dry. I dun expect I will do well tmr, but i just pray i wont go out of tune. Duh. Eve, you better dun laugh or make funny faces or else i see u i think i will just burst out laughing on stage loh~~~

Back to Bugis village... so after my brows are done we went shopping around... OMG we found these super cute hp accessories! Hehe he bought 1 for himself, as well as 1 for me! We call them Da tou... cos it has a big head and a small body. so cute! shall take pic soon!

Then we proceeded to Bugis parco Kino to get his fav mag. Shopped around hoping to find nice new year clothes but to no avail. Aiyah but I'm so glad also la! The other day I managed to buy a pair of crops and 2 tshirts! I'm so freaking happy cos I thought I cant fit into them lo!!! One from Guess (yes, I can wear their L! Bwahaahahahaha) and the other from Dorothy Perkins. Woohoo, this year's new year attire shall be casual and comfortable. My favorite Xmas pressie this year was from him. I was soooo caught by surprise can.... It's a pair of Birkenstocks!!! my goodness.... so nice, he definitely know the designs I'll like! =)

So more or less my new year attire will be like this:
Guess tee + denim crops + big white bag + Birkenstocks OR
Dorothy Perkins tee + denim crops + big white bag + Birkenstocks

Haha I know its kinda stupid cos I intend to wear the same pair of crops and only change the tees. cos I only do visiting on 1st and 2nd day!!! So, no point buying so many clothes also la....Okok, shall not digress....

So shop to no avail... then we went to this new "shopping centre" opposite Bugis Breadtalk - The Icon. OMG its like the chinese saying, "The sparrow has all its organs complete despite its small size".

Eve! we MUST go there!!! lots of cute stuffs and nice clothes! most importantly... theres this BIGGEST DISCOVERY OF THE DAY! There is this manicure shop, and their charges are like so freaking cheap!!!

Express Manicure + Express Pedicure - $12
Classic Manicure + Classic Pedicure - $22
Classic FRENCH Manicure + FRENCH Pedicure - $35

its sooooo bloody cheap rite??????? I intend to go there liao... really regret signing my package... I'm so proud of my discovery today. haha

2006-01-10T12:07:00.000+08:00

Went Partyworld with Mischelle and Clarissa for ktv session the other day... Its actually a long-ago-planned-session-but-we-failed-to-meet thingy. We said we wanted to go since before exams last sem! bwahahaaha so finally we managed to go before school really starts la... or else no chance to go liao...

So we braved through the rain and finally went to Partyworld at Clementi... Here comes the irritating part. When we were at the counter, we asked the person to calculate the different charges if we use voucher or package. So obviously he said voucher is cheaper and will cost around 30+. Ok we went to the room, had fun singing!

Mischelle hoh... aiyoh really very princessy girl girl! always choose the cute cute high pitched songs... bwahaaahaa then we sang some duets of fan wei qi and other girls... Clar even said we were like lesbians! haha... oh talkin about Clar, I really love her husky voice... damn sexy can! especially that Zhang Hui Mei song too bad I forgot the song name... and she doesnt sing with the "fake-voice" (i dunnoe the correct term la)so I'm really amazed! She's also a Sun Yan Zi fanatic... keep singing her songs haha... eh girl, I try to see if my uncle can get the Sun Yan Zi concert tickets...

Argh... I reallllly hate the rain..............

2006-01-05T10:40:00.000+08:00

New Year's celebration was not that spectacular. Initially, we planned to go camping on Xmas Eve just like the past years... but it was raining lions and tigers so we decided to postpone the camp to New year's eve. But I dunno wats wrong...it stormed on both holidays! New Year's eve was raining lions and tigers too! So we cancelled it, and had bbq at home instead.

My New Year Resolutions:
1. Get a driving license
2. Better results
3. Save more money
4. Stay healthy and happy

I can't think of anymore! shucks! I'm such a boring person. Bwahahhahaha I'm rather free this week as school just started so only Math classes... My fridays are terrible... all the way till 530!

JIVAS 3RD OUTING - Manicure / Pedicure Session

2005-12-21T10:56:00.000+08:00

Yesterday was our TAI TAI day, busy having mancure & pedicure session! Bwahahaha initially was horrible cos we went to that place only to find out that branch is no longer providing such services!!! I immediately called the person I made appointment with, and she told me its the 1st branch... at Bencoolen... so aiyah, very turn off! But we still walked there and reached within 15 minutes =)

So, we reached Bencoolen, hunt around for the shop, and finally found it. Apparently Steph got even more excited hehe! We clarified about the costs, then choose colors... Eve and Steph did the Premiere Mani & Pedi, whereas I did the Premiere Pedi only... who to blame? I'm going to camp with Eggs to celebrate Xmas,and how am I gonna pitch the tent with my handicapped hands!?!?

Eve wanted French for her hands, and chose another girly pink color for her toes.. argh I'm picturing Eve with the horrendous Zi-Luo-Cha striking purple nails! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Stephy chose a shimmering brown for both her hands and feet! At first I chose a darker brown, but end up choosing the same color as Steph's!

After choosing the colors, the session started... we positioned ourselves comfortably on the "massage" chair, soak our feet in the honey bath with "ccjou"(i don't know how to spell!!!) bath salts. I turned over and look at Steph, she looks EXACTLY like a Taitai cos 1 staff is attending to her feet, and another doing her nails, n the point is, she showed me that I'm-a-taitai-and-I'm-enjoying-my-manicure face!!! *pengz*

There was this part when the girl started scraping off the dead skin on our soles with a blade-like tool. Steph totally gross Eve and I out when she saw the dead skin and told us "PARMESAN CHEESE!!!!!" WALAU...that was gross!!!

Okok lets cut the story short, here's how our nails look after such a pampering session!

Our Nice Toenails!

Me being Extra

Hehe, nice rite! Eve gotta rush off to the airport first... so Steph and I went to settle dinner @ Pastamania! *slurp slurp*

I ordered Marinara! *Yummy*

Finally! TODAY IS THE-DAY! I think we'll really have fun today with all the pressies exchange n stuff. Haven thought of what to wear though... Hmmm... Shall bring my dua-king-kong camera so that we can take better pics. Yay! *waves pom pom*

Eventful weekend!

2005-12-19T23:54:00.000+08:00

Went to Victoria's Secrets warehouse sale on Saturday! I must say I'm kinda disappointed cos the variety is very limited. I only bought 1 bra and 1 camisole set! Luckily Nike was having sale too... Bought 1 sports bra, and 2 sleeveless basketball shirts for Eggs and my Dad. Oh ya, not to forget helping Stephy dear get her "hooong serrr" sports bra. BWAHAHAHA.

Later in the evening, Eggs and I went to my cousin's 21st birthday celebration @ Downtown East. That place is really horrible I dunnoe why people like to book chalets there, With such a small room that has no space to walk around, and also the bbq pits all packed together! Its like u are bbqing your food, and someone's bbqing your butt! DUH! Nevertheless, we managed to survive throughout the whole event (packed with all my aunties gossipings and young little cousins running around the whole damn chalet!) and went back to my place for sleepover.

Followed on Sunday, we had ktv session with my SSTG! Did lotsa catching up, crack jokes, gossiping and of course preparing Eileen's "surprise" birthday celebration! Its almost the same stunt as Stephy Dear's birthday, but the pple there are less ONZ. and I dunno y Eileen dont seem to be surprised at all. Haha, talk about anti-climax. -_-"

Dinner at Pastamania... normal meal, had some coffee @ Starbucks then off we went to Mt Faber to look at the World's Tallest ARTIFICIAL Xmas Tree! bwahahaa corny sia... Ok, so we reached there at about 945pm... we were lucky to be able to find a parking lot! *Woohoo* so off we go to the viewing place... The breeze was cooling, and the night view of Singapore was great. While waiting for the thing to start, I'm glad i was accompanied by Xmas carols, flashing lights on the trees and of cos, sweet nothings from Eggs. *cheeky grin*

So the clock strikes 10, and POP POP POP! Fireworks started! Hehe... it was great, but its really too short! But of cos its understandable la... its a daily event leh...imagine if they put fireworks for 5 minutes daily, i think by the end of Xmas, Mt Faber management have to declare bankrupt liao... Arghhh I'll be having pedicure with JIVAS tmr! So excited!!! cant wait for our xmas celebration!!! *pulls hair*

The worst ktv session

2005-12-15T00:55:00.000+08:00

Today's dinner treat from Shan was awesome! We ate at Phin's Steakhouse before meeting the peeps at Partyworld@HelloSingtel. Sizzling hotplate Ladies-cut Sirloin Steak with mushroom sauce for me, and grilled chicken with asparagus for Shan. Nice! Lots of chatting and gossiping... I'm just so glad that I met her. She's a great friend. Even though we meet up maybe once every 3 months, we still have lots of things to talk and feel close to each other. Once we see each other, the 3 8 mode automatically start! Haha

I'm happy cos she loves the pressie i bought for her, she likes the uniqueness of being able to mix n match the scents. Oh ya, finally passed her the earrings I bought for her when I went Bangkok in May this year. Yeah rite, after so much delay. =P So, after dinner, we went to meet Weirong, Terence & his gf for ktv. Oh man, this is the worst ktv group I've ever had. Its not Shan, I definitely have some crazy songs with her, but its just the anti climax atmosphere the other 3 peeps have. wahkao dont say liao...make me more angry...

Let me name the few ktv groups I have: Eggs, *inspired by Eve* SSTG (Sec Sch Tuition Grp), SSF(Sec Sch frenz), Far East gang, and definitely JIVAS! My favorite would CONFIRM GUARANTEE PLUS CHOP be JIVAS! followed by Eggs, SSF, then SSTG. While I was singing just now, i wanted to sing Missy Elliot's Work It. But i realise Stephy dear is not around, and the 3 peeps might think I'm mad. I wanted to sing Nicole Kidman's Something Stupid, but Eve dear is not around! Then, I wanted other songs, but the mood just doesnt seem to sink in! DUHHH I'm not gonna ktv with them anymore!!!

By the way, I got the latest news from Zhihui that I'm selected to represent Sing & Strum to perform for the concert @ Esplanade on 19th February 2006 (JIVAS - make sure u come!). Which means I'll be performing for Choir, Accapella, and Sing & Strum. Its supposed to be good news rite? but OMFG, I JUST REALISED HOW MUCH SONG LYRICS I HAVE TO MEMORISE!!! *smacks forehead*

Rosti with cheese sausage!

2005-12-13T23:00:00.000+08:00

Woke up later today...went to meet enen for lunch n to grab her Esprit members card. After lunch, its off to Bugis to grab shan's birthday gift! To my disappointment, theres nothing great there. so sad~

So bla bla bla, after shopping around, I decided on the mix & match perfume from Bodyshop. I'm soooo attracted to its rainbow colors and the casing. Nice! *big grin* Ok, so after that, came home to rot... surf net and i decided to get rid of the old layout! so sian of it! I love the current one hehe.

Went to Millenia Walk for carolling, I must say the management is stupid to let us perform at the New internal block. So few audiences! But nevertheless, we completed all 12 songs. Then off we go to Marche for dinner together! I ordered Rosti with Cheese sausage, topped with sourcream! OMG i love the cheese sausage! its so cheesy, nice, a bit salty though. Then the 5 of us shared fried calamari! *woohoo* damn nice. I STRONGLY recommend Fried Calamari from Marche!

Too bad, my choirmates were all camera-shy. =(

so far so good....

2005-12-11T20:29:00.000+08:00

Updates 13/12/05 12:13am

Just came back from dinner cum shopping cum coffee session with the Far east gang. Dinner was great @ Billy Bombers. Route 66, Alcatraz, B52, Yin&Yang, Cheese fries, Chocolate Coke & Coffee coke! Lots of catching up was done... and its so funny to see the live-walking band performing xmas songs while we eat. After paying up, all of us were allowed to pick up the xmas gift thingy, and i got a free cheese fries! Yay! shall go there next time to eat free cheese fries! *hiak hiak*

After that was shopping around for En's slippers that she's gonna wear at office. Tmr will be her first day of work at Paya Lebar, yes, 1 stop away from my home! *woohoo* I'll be meeting her for lunch and get her Esprit members card. Anyone wanna get discounted stuff at Esprit? Hehe

Oh back to the story, so after all the shopping, En n her beau had to go first, so Ade & Eddie & myself went to Starbucks @ Raffles city for a coffee session. We were chatting about our current jobs, chalets, our past, our future, and some funny-jokes-that-only-we-know. Ahhh I'm so happy! My secondary sch tuition group pals have just planned a ktv session followed by dinner on this coming sunday! *adds to event list* really happy to be able to catch up with them n have fun! hehe I really cherish all my friends around me...

I'm so sick

2005-11-30T12:13:00.000+08:00

Hai I'm dying! I'm so sick now... last nite's temperature was 38.5 and i having irritating running nose and a super duper terrible sore throat. Gulped 2 panadol tablets and drank lots of Pi Pa Gao, ate lots of strepsils. But it dont seem to help...

I felt as if there were millions spikes in my throat, and each time i swallow my saliva.... omg.... die off better. My voice is totally different now and i'm still having running nose. Shucks big time!

How do I scream during ETP with the girls? How do I sing during my carolling sessions? Fug it.

What's your value in the friendship?

2005-11-27T22:02:00.000+08:00

The story goes like this (names have been edited):

Mildred treats Diane as one of her besties, she shares secrets with her, loves to dine and ktv with her, shops and talks to Diane on the phone very frequently. February came, it was Diane's birthday (her fav. shopping haunt is Mango). Mildred spent many days thinking of what would be the best pressie for Diane, and even went to town several times to search for it. Mildred finally decides on a elegant yet casual chic clutch bag for Diane. As Mildred wasn't employed at that time, she was actually quite financially tight.

When she was about to pay for the bag, she thought to herself, "I can only afford this $25 bag, i wonder if Diane thinks its cheapskate?". But she still proceeded to pay for the bag as she can only afford that. Mildred wanted to tell Diane how precious she is to herself. So she decided to hand-make a present for Diane. Mildred spent about 4 days to complete the gift.

Diane's birthday came, and Mildred gave her the presents. Diane seems very happy and touched with the presents , and Mildred felt glad. =)

August came, it is now Mildred's birthday. She treats all her besties dinner at a restaurant and is quite excited about what presents she will receive. Weirdly, everyone came with surprises and gifts except Diane. She did not give Mildred a present, claiming that she has no time and she apologised. Mildred was kinda disappointed but she can understand that Diane is very busy as she is working as a Business Developer (with a monthly income of $2.2k). So she accepted Diane's apologies and everyone had fun.

November came, Mildred and Diane met up one day to have dinner. Diane said she wanna pass the birthday present to Mildred (YES - after such a long time). So, they met up. Diane gave Mildred a Perlini Silver's paper bag. Mildred thanked Diane and they continued with dinner.

At home, Mildred opened the present and saw a pair of earrings. As Perlini have limited designs of earrings, Mildred immediately recalled that the pair of earrings are only selling at $5.90. To make things worse, those earrings were actually on sale! 50% off!!!! YES, YOU HEARD IT RIGHT! 50% OFF! Which means Diane only paid $2.80 for it.

Mildred felt sad, and she thought to herself "Do i mean nothing to her? Am i only worth such an insincere present? how important am I to her? If Diane is financially tight, I would appreciate so much if she can make me a card...".

Many people will say friendship shouldnt be measured with monetary means. But if a friend of yours whom you cherished did this to you, wont you feel hurt or weird? Will you be so graceful to say that its just the thought that counts? Wouldnt you think you are worth more than $2.80? As in, even if your fren is really broke, wouldnt you wish she made you a card?

Now, what are YOUR views?

My Lovely 24th

It's a lovely 24th...my guy woke me up with a peck on my lips and a hug. =) I was lazing a bit... then we decided to hurry up before thc clock strikes 11! Went to mac at my market to have Mac breakfast~~ haha.... its been a long time that we can relax ourselves by strolling to the market to have breakfast together then shop for groceries...

Thoroughly enjoyed ourselves at mac! Sipping the hot tea slowly, eating my wonderful Big breakfast~~ Woohoo! Very nice! =) Then we went to the library to do some reading. Finally we can read books of our interest! Then there he went, busy choosing his design books while I borrowed recipes and handicrafts books! Duh! I'm seriously a non-fiction person.

Then we went to buy our all-time favourite - chocolate ice blend with pearls from this small bubble tea shop just below my house. nice and cheap! rich creamy chocolate, chewy pearls just for $1.20! bwahahaha... its hard to get deals like that now man...

After that we went home to watch Tom-Yum-Goong. Nice but also sorta disappointed cos some of the stunts were repeat from Ong-Bak. So.... kinda nothing new. =( Have some time to play with my hammies... I'm pleasantly shocked that Xiaobai is recovering!! Fur has grown on his wound area! he's recovering!!! *smooch Xiaobai*

Finally its time to meet the ultimate gurlfrens of mine! shall blog about it later!
