Worst day

2009-07-15T22:56:00.002+08:00

Woke up early in the morning.. it was raining so heavily...

As usual, normally when it's raining.. I would take a longer route to avoid being drenched... coz i dislike carrying an umbrella around..

So today I walked to the bus stop to take 222 to bedok interchange... waited and waited but see no bus coming after 10mins later.. by then the bus stop is already packed with people... but then that was the beginning of my worst day...

Finally squeezed into the bus and alighted at the interchange.. the next one was the MRT... the entrance of the train was so packed that it overspilled to the other side... damn POWER!~ and i've waited for the 3rd train to get it... Kana squeezed like pancake in the train and basically no need to hold on to anything... and just simply ly on the others can already...

Finally reached office.. and now have to wait for the lift to come... and also packed with people waiting for the lift... my office located on 28th floor and the express one will go straight to 18th and one level by one level... it stops at 18th... 19th... 20th... 21st... and i saw no one pressing 22nd & 23rd... but the door still opened on 22nd... that person came in.. and press 23rd!!!~ kaoz.. almost wanted to kick that person out of the lift... so it basically stopped at each and every level until 28th....

My day arent anything better after that.. still got alot things to do in office... still have to go school... sigh...

Been getting lazy to write blogs.. perhaps i'm too tired le bah.. but there were many events happened recently.

Just Yesterday I was at the Red Hot Sales, an event organised by SingTel together with the PC shows... competitors were there... StarHub & M1... heard that it is a norm for M1 to recruit those young girls to distrubute the flyers... but for me and my colleagues.. we were all volunteered with some part-timers only... I was assigned together with Xiqiang, Kiat & Zhutou to distribute the flyers outside StarHubs... and both competitors were side side by side...

Anyway.. it was a very tiring task for me.. all the while i dislike distributing flyers.. ever since that time dunno who jio me before to distribute along orchard road... i was died after 3-days of distributing... sigh... anyway.. just for the 2 days off given.. should i be happy or.... anyway.. i'll be taking the 2 days on this coming thurs and friday... finally got the chance to go back malaysia with parent liao... and of coz.. GENTING!!~

Hope that my luck does not use up on Saturday... wahaha.. coz it was my very first 大三元 and i draw the last 白板 myself.. wahaha.... shiok sia.. but i wasnt that lucky on friday night.. coz junyi won his first 十三一 on me sia... =(((( and i lost more than $30 that night... hmmm....

Tennis with Desmond

2009-06-03T23:16:00.000+08:00

Yesterday evening after work went to Desmond's condo to play tennis.. i was abit late due to some last minute meeting in office.. it has been an hectic week.. and how i hope this week will end very soon..

It has been quite sometime since i last played with Desmond... and i manage to return quite a few hits back to Desmond using my new racquet... wahaha... looking forward for a few more games.. and yah.. i found quite a few more tennis kakis...

one of them is wee kiat from VAS department... hmmm... he seems very strong on it and we agreed to set sometime to play together at a condo near east coast... woo-wee... perhaps next week bah... gonna ask zhutou along to train her up.. ^_^

Badminton with colleagues...

2009-06-03T22:56:00.002+08:00

Since when did a badminton become such a expensive sports?? Actually the whole 2hrs game with colleagues were fun and exciting... but considering the price ($7.40/hr) that we pay...although when calculate down to per person is cheaper.. but then the long wait for the courts become a hassle...

Last Sunday evening I reserved a court which is 2 weeks ago... what a long wait just for a court... sigh.. then the site for paying the fees wasnt in a secure networks.. so when i went down to tampines personally to pay the fees, i did a small feedback to the person about the insecure networks... not sure if they listened to it.. but when i went down again to do my second payment for the 2nd hours (total 7-9pm)... i overheard that there is an upcoming change to the reservation system... hmmm... sounds good... but good systems meant harder chance to get a court... So perhaps it may be my last time playing badminton... Tennis is still fun for me.. ^_^..

Anyway.. on that day.. all of us was on-time and head to the sport hall in Tampines... i didnt bring any rackets... coz Kelvin (my boss) had bring 4 on that day... it was fun playing with them.. Especially seeing the skills of XQ and Zhutou was strong... hmmm... wahaha.. and Hilda cant tahan my "evil" laughter.. making her laugh and unable to serve or catch the shuttlecock easily... wahahahha.... so easy to make her laugh lor... hmmm...

The whole hall was like a suana room... just a few minutes inside already full of sweats already... luckily i brough along a face towel.. and by the time i go out of the court.. it was so drenched with my sweats that it's dripping lor.. hmm... lost so much water in such a short while...

Palau Ubin Trip With Poly Friends

2009-06-02T23:14:00.006+08:00

Last weekend was quite a fulfilling one... had many events that tires me down to the limit.. but then.. i guess it was the type of days that i wanted to have.. everytime able to go out exercise and enjoy myself.. even has to be done alone.. i'm still feel glad about it...

Anyway.. Last Saturday had a fun trip with poly friends (Seng Giap, Liying, Hong Ming & Sue Feng) to Palau Ubin.. it was the my first trip there... but my dad told me it wasnt my first time as he bought me there before.. i dun quite remember lah.. but then... so looking forward to it...

It was so packed at the jetty to ubin.. sigh.. full of students and their odour was... sigh.. then we manager to squeeze all the way to the front and quickly get ourselves to one of the boat... i dunno if we cut the queue... but then it was great to get ouselves a space to go to Ubin....

Finally we have reached the island after 10 minutes boat ride... and to me it was macham another country... but it is still belong to Singapore... and of coz.. our first objective was to get ourselves a bicycle.. and Liying guide us to her usual place..

Here is a pic of me on a bicycle... and the traditional old atap house behind as the background... no high rise buildings there and all wooden house... NATURE!!~ feels like home!~ Anyway.. the bicycle cost $10 for a day rental... consider expensive ma?

Here we goes... and our first destination was to the East to the wetland...

Indeed.. the land was wet.. and the 'green' land that u see in the below pics suppose to be filled with water.. but it was low tide.. so all the vegetation surfaced out and make it so green.. but yet.. it was very very dirty... eeks.. but that doesnt stop us from going down.. wahhahha...

By the way.. that area was not allowed to cycle in and it was a 5 mins walk from where we park our bikes... then following that wetland was a trail towards the mangrove swamp... wetland must be wet.. so the weather start to turn from sunny day to rainy day... and we are in the middle of the swamp... and guess what?? the area was filled with mosquitoes... and we were being surrounded when we seek shelter inside the swamp... wrong move sia.. and we were being forced out the shelter and carry on walking in the rain...

I was simply drenched... only the two girls got umbrella and the guys have to walk in the rain... sigh.. man always suffer de... wahaha.. then we reached this tower in the swamp and we climbed up.. despite of the risk of lightning strike.. we still went up to the peak and took a pics before we climb to the top.. sigh.. i was abit shaken coz of my fear of height... =(((

Suddenly the rain stop and the sun appears... just nice to dry ourselves in the sun while we cycle to the other end.. which is the West side of the Ubin to see that big lake... but then to see that lake.. we will have to cycle alone a 30-40 degree steep slopes to the top... sigh... already switched to gear 1 and yet i only manage to tahan till the middle of the hill... and hong ming bearly make it to the top... and in the end all of us have to get down from the bike and push the bikes to the top... but it still worth all the effort to see such a nice scenary... ^_^

Good days end fast.. and it was about time to go back to the village already... coz Sue Feng have a flight to catch.. so we agreed to leave the island by 1pm and have lunch in Changi village.. and i've learnt what to bring next time when going to ubin... most important was an umbrella and insects repellent... sigh.. i was so paiseh that i didnt bring anything lor.. just me myself and I... Now i'll nv make that mistakes again..

Terminator with ZhuTou!~

2009-05-31T23:21:00.003+08:00

Wow!!!~ it was a very exciting movie for me.. especially when i'm so familiar with the names being mentioned in the movie after i watched the Terminator series called "Terminator - The Sarah Conner Chronicles"...

However it wasnt link to the series neither the previous Terminator episodes... but it was still very very interestings... the movie screened on the moment where John Conner found his dad and in a dilemma if to send his dad back to his mum to "mate" in order to give birth to John... it was a very difficult decisions.. coz it means simply allowing his dad to die while fighting against the terminators...

I was kinda sad when i didnt see the new species of the terminator in the movie... which is that liquidified terminator that can turn into anyone when touched... wooot!~ it appear in one of the oldist movie and also in the series... quite interesting wor.. wahahahah

Anyway.. i was so damn tired on that night.. especially i went for the cycling in Ubin in the morning~~ total SHAG-ness~!!!

Company Event

2009-05-30T15:00:00.003+08:00

Yesterday attended a very exciting afternoon event in SingTel SRC.. it was organised in-house for all the product people.. and the MC (Geraldine & Chai Hwee) have made the whole event a very exciting one...

I was slightly later than all my colleagues as i have to go down to the IS office to put Lena's laptop to reformat... then when i reached.. they already reserved a place right at the centre... so the event begin with a speech by our VP and then some introduction of the new people in Consumer Group... and there was a show displayed by our directors.. it was kind of funny at some part.. but it was quite boring as well...

I also remembered about another guessing games... and a person have to come out to act out the words for everyone to guess.. the room was divided into boys & girls on each side... then i was being selected out by Angeline... sigh.. tot i can escape sia... =Pp and of coz... after my turn.. i was given the right to choose another girl... and so.. Zhutou!! wahaha.. she must have hated me.. =pP

And soon it's time for the lucky draw!! becoz Terence was not around.. and i was the next in the line.. and together with me was Kiat and XiQiang wahaha.. but then it wasnt very easy for the lucky draw and we had to make difficult choice to take the hard cash $100 or the prize written on the scroll... i wasnt that lucky to get the iPod Touch 8GB but kind-of lucky to get $50 instead because i choose the scroll... but then both Kiat & XQ got the iPod Touch sia... kaoz.. =Pp

Overall it was a very relaxing afternoon in the SRC... ^_^

2009-05-26T21:32:00.002+08:00

Went to the SPGG again on last Sunday to play a round of Tennis.. finally a chance to try out the new racquet that i bought previously... it was quite fun and the racquet seems to merge within me~~ wahaha... too 'gua zhang' isit?? come lah.. challenge me and you will know.. hehe

Anyway.. we didnt reserve the court till the last minutes when reaching the SPGG... it was only 2:30pm then i start reserving the 3pm slot.. wahahha.. actually i did ask beforehand when i come out from the house.. but it was quite risky as well...

After which.. we dive into the pool to cool down ourselves.. wahahah.. enjoying life hor?? but i wasnt very happy on that day.. coz the crowd there was too much till it's so pack in the pool to swim.. it was quite different from the previous weeks that i come.. sigh... hopefully the next time i go there.. it will not be that pack.. =Pp so must go go go early early next time!!~

Trip to Johor

2009-05-24T21:32:00.002+08:00

Yesterday planned a trip down to johor.. initially got 4 of us... me.. zhutou.. peiching & kiat... but then something happened to kiat's family and he is unable to join us... hence.. only left 3 of us to go...

it was about 3:30pm when we board onto peiching's car.. initially wanted to go thru woodland checkpoint.. but then i said i only know how to go thru tuas checkpoint... luckily peiching turn to tuas.. coz on the way.. his friends sms him and say that woodland that side is jammed... lolx...
we are heading towards the sea side to the seafood restaurants to eat... i was so damn stressful.. coz i only remember the road through memories... and last time i go there was about 6-8 months ago.. sigh.. then when we reached the final turn.. i couldnt remember the road sia... then in the end have to call dad to confirm the road...

In the end.. saw the final turn and then we went in.. but then so many restaurants and i only remembered to go the the 2nd one... sigh.. that's the wrong one manz... in the end we ate at the last restaurant which was only moderately nice... now i know liao.. so i'll go to the 2nd restaurants.. ^_^ We ordered stir-fried salty egg crabs... 鳕鱼... lemon chicken... lok lok.. and kang kong... it's actually too much for 3 person already... then we couldnt finish those food... and guess how much we spend?? lolx.. less than $30 per person.. ^_^

After that another stressing matters... i have to find the way to the new Jusco.. wahaha.. at the critical turn.. we are suppose to go straight but i suggested to turn back... finally i decided to call dad again.. and that turn suppose to go straight de.. wahahha.. then making a U turn and we finally reached the new Jusco...

Zhutou was so happy that we finally reached.. it will be her shopping paradise.. and she bought 3 pairs of shoes on the first level.. and you know what? there was even more shoes shops on the 2nd floor.. wahaha.. there she goes with her shopping spree.. but i think she nv buy anymore on the 2nd floor... we wanted to look for sports shoes.. but the sports shops are quite limited there.. hence.. no shoes sia.. sigh...

After that we passby a very special shop.. which i can say it is very rare in Singapore.. what is it? it's A&W!!!~ wahahha.. we then ordered and sat down in the restaurant... ordered their curly fries and also the root beers with a single scoop of ice-cream.. yummy!!!~
Finally it is about 11 plus when we leave Jusco.. it was a very tiring day... by the time we passby Singapore custom.. it is already 12 plus le... the girl who say not tired.. slept through the journey home... weaklings.. =Pp

Meet Up with Sister Melissa

2009-05-21T23:45:00.002+08:00

Been a very long time since i last met up with her... erm.. not quite actually.. she can remembered that our last meet up was in Feb attending Adeline's Bday Chalet... wahahah.. i think i also got blog about that day.. but seems like very very long time ago liao.. perhaps the assignments and exams periods seem to passby very slowly...

But anyway.. today acc her to shop and also shop for my sports shoes.. by the time i reached.. i nv late hor.. at 7pm.. she's already there 30mins ago and bought her things liao.. sigh.. so we go makan dinner first at Fish&Co... Think there's too many ppl know i like Fish&Co already... ^_^ thanks to all those that remembered!~

We only ordered a set of New York Fish&Chip and a small portion of "Fried Sotongs".. and along the dinner we have updated each other on our status... there are many things changed in her company.. but i'm just working even harder than before... nothing big happened in my workplace and i just tell her to lookout for new promotions from SingTel.. ^_^

After that we have a walk around the Parkway Parade and look for my sport shoes.. but i didnt see any shoes that fancy me... so i didnt bought anything today... we also went to the Crystal Jade Palace to get some breakfast for her family... see lah.. so good.. eat breakfast also must eat Crystal Jade de... =Pp

While on the way someone tapped me on my shoulder... luckily my sunburnt didnt affect my shoulder.. if not i'll smack that guy.. wahahah.. but that person is no other people but my eldest bro.. wahaha.. he caught me with another girl sia.. =(((

After that Sister Mel is tired already... so i suggested to have some desserts and wait for her BF to fetch her home... first time meet up with her boyfriend and we had a little chat... after that they offered to fetch me home but i didnt accept.. i wanted to watch my series when on the way home...

So when walking towards the bus stop.. i realised that i should walk to katong to take bus 40 which will stop outside the Technopark... although it is far but i still walk.. so longer time to watch video ma~~

While waiting for the bus.. i saw a bread shop selling some muffins.. so i bought 3 for $3.60 for tml breakfast... yummy de wor!!~

Evening at Vivocity & "Songs of the sea"

2009-05-21T22:57:00.006+08:00

After the sun tanning at the beach for the whole afternoon.. zhutou and I took the train over to Vivocity for shopping and dinner... I was quite surprised that after you exit the Sentosa... coming back again will require you to buy the tickets again!~ that will happen only when u drive in... remember that when you come in by car.. u already paid $2 per pax and also $3 for that car already.. and yet... sigh... Something must be done to that flaws in the system sia..

Anyway.. Zhutou managed to come out with a trick that doesnt need us to pay the trip back to Sentosa... ask me and i'll share with you.. wahahah.. =pP anyway.. we head to the World of Sport to find the Tennis racquet... wanted to buy it long time ago but dragged till now due to the price.. damn expensive sia.. my racquet cost $209 before the 15% member discount... lucky got the member card which dropped the price down to $170++... and also bought 2 sets of tennis balls...

Zhutou also bought her own one at almost the similiar price... but i somehow feel abit "bo hua" for her to buy leh.. hmm...

Later.. we went to the Marche to have our dinner.. both of us didnt want to have a heavy meal.. so we only ordered a few dishes... of coz will not miss out their famous Rosti~~ wahaha..

After our meal.. we decided to have a stroll in the Sentosa near the Merlion... since it is still early for the water show "Songs of the Sea" at 8:40pm.. already couldnt see the scar of the Merlion after the lightning striked on it a few months ago.... poor thing... but still an icon so we wouldnt have miss out shooting at it.. ^_^..

After we explored the whole area of Imbiah.. we sat down in the Coffeebean to wait for the showtime..
Finally we are inside the show and Zhutou caught alot of good shots during the show... it really worth the $10/pax tickets... go watch it manz!!~

It was a show with great display of the combination of FIRE, WATER & LIGHTS... I'm sure you will end up a big "WOOOO!!" at the end... ^_^

Burnt!!!~

2009-05-21T22:28:00.004+08:00

Yesterday i took a leave for a slight break.. and also to clear off the off-in-lieu that was left behind during the Vesak day. As planned.. me and Zhutou meet up to go Sentosa for some suntanning...

We met up in the early afternoon about 12plus and by the time we reached the Sentosa.. it's already about 1:30pm liao.. the sun was high up shining mercilessly on the hot sand beach... and there was alot of babes... out of 10 girls.. only 2 or 3 are Singaporeans.... there was simply too many 'ang mohs' during weekdays... and woot.. i cant deny that their figures were so perfect and cant get my eyes out of them...=pP

So guys out there.. let's go Sentosa during weekdays!!!~ wahahaha

Anyway.. we managed to secure a very great location with no nearby shelter around.. so it was just simply the sun.. the sand and us... Zhutou brought along her mat and we lied onto the sand.. she also brought along her Monopoly to play while suntanning...

Shouldnt have played too much because by the time she won the game... the sun was already down.. and realised that i only tanned on one side of my body... and then the other side wasnt tanned well... sigh!!~

Take a look at my poor thigh after being exposed to the sun for about 3 hrs... i tot the suntan lotion will not cause such a serious burnt... but then sigh... guess it will takes alot of days to recover... till then... GUYS!!~ SENTOSA!~~ wahahah..

A short run at Bedok Reservior

2009-05-17T17:12:00.003+08:00

This morning when i woke up, it is already about 11plus already... the weather was damn nice for sport and yet i have no plans this week... actually suppose to go swimming yesterday at SPGG but was attracted to MJ instead... didnt really waste my time there but peiching managed to trigger my urge to go for diving lessons.. but the cost of it really discourage me alot... if possible.. maybe i'll get my pri sch, Hao Jie, together for a trip to Tioman for diving... but the cost... sigh... will see how i'll react when the time is right bah...

Anyway.. we also agreed to find a weekend in June to head up to Genting for the casino... i've applied for the membership cards long time ago and doesnt have the chance to use it.. >.< anyway.. looking forward for the trip to genting bah!

Feeling abit guilty on my weekend sports plan.. i decided to go a round in bedok reservior... since my last run about 8-9 months ago.. the place has changed alot.. those renovations at that time has completed now and people are using those floating platforms for wake-boarding.. canoeing... dragonboating and those tree-tops climbing sports... Although bedok reservior has been much more happening than before.. but the ache on a part of my knee muscle is still there!~

Is it the way i'm jogging is wrong?

Or i'm using the wrong shoes?

Or even I should never ever run again??

going thru all these questions in my head.. 不知不觉 i have walked for about maybe 3/5 of the reservior... i think because of the shoes.. i felt the abrasion near the "ball" of the feet... causing me to lean unknowingly towards the side of the feet which caused the aching in the muscle at the knee... dunno if it is the cause... but i'll test it out again next week once i got myself a pair of shoes that can do both tennis-ing and running...

we shall see by then if i can still continue to run or not..........

Interesting Encounters @ the Zoo

2009-05-14T18:08:00.007+08:00

Other than looking out for the animals and the man-eating white tigers, me and xiaofang also encountered several interesting incidents that may be rare to see in the zoo. We saw a green lizard crawling panickly across us and gave both of us a shock... heard and seen the lions roar and clawing at each other... saw the poor little butterfly stucked helplessly on the spider webs.. and saw the mighty big black ants that can bite you to bleed if you are careless... I also took some pics on some interesting comments:

Kangaroo = "I Don't Understand"

Croc's Acidic Stomach: that's gonna be hurting if to digest my bones... =((

Some wooden Crafts in a man-made village.

"Ouch!~" Kana bitten by the legendary giant tortise!~

There is also a big wooden house at the end of the zoo~~~
With BIG lizards!!~ (licking my hair)

And GIGANTIC!!! Cockroach!! heading towards XiaoFang~~ Will it eat up XiaoFang?!

Wahaha.. overall.. it was a very fun trip to the zoo after so long... thanks xiaofang to acc me on that day... ^_^

A trip to Singapore Zoo

2009-05-12T22:26:00.016+08:00

Finally got the chance to visit the Singapore Zoo after so long.. i've just uploaded all the pics from my iPhone... sigh.. coz XiaoFang forget to charge her camera.. so only able to use my iPhone to take all the pics... not so bad though.. and i've even done some editing to the pics...

Anyway.. we reached the zoo at about 1:30pm and had our lunch.. we entered straight into the zoo using the SingTel members... which can allow up to 4 pax into the zoo for free... we started by walking through the treetop... see the man-eating white tiger... and we just nice hit the feeding time at 2:30pm...

Then we start exploring the whole zoo and took quite a few pictures on the varieties of animals... and at about 3:30pm... we watched the elephant show:

We have walked all over the zoo in a big "8" methods in order to cover the whole area... and we have to quickly explore the zoo because the zoo is closing off at 6pm... we also missed the the water show which suppose to screen at 5pm.. if we are to go there.. we arent able to have enough time to cover the whole area...

Anyway.. here is the list of animals that we have seen in the zoo:

Bird

Cat

Crocs

Deer

Goat

Hippo

Swimming at Bedok Swimming Complex

2009-05-12T20:28:00.002+08:00

This morning woke up early in the morning.. but not for work... but looking forward to the zoo trip later in the afternoon... but wake up too early... so i intend to go for a swim before meeting xiaofang... so i drove to the nearby Bedok swimming complex for a swim...

It has been a long time since i last step inside the public swimming pool... but why today?? because today is weekday.. so i tot it would be fewer ppl... indeed.. when i enter the swimming pool... there are not more than 10 ppl... i quickly changeout and head towards to the adult pool...

I managed to reserve a lane and i started to swim... total i think i clocked more than 20 laps for that an hour or more... my arm was starting to ache.. then i went up onto the chair for some sun... although not much sun today... but i still manage to get a glimpse of it...

By the time i realised the time after the bath.. i was already inside the complex for 2hrs already... but then it wasnt my day... when i reached back my car.. there was a piece of paper on the windscreen... sigh... no need to say le... it was the parking fine... my laziness cost me 30 bucks for the day... havent go to Zoo already spent 50 bucks le... (additional 20 bucks for the car coupon for the weekend car) =(((

Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis

It has a total of 45 letters!!~ amazing... here it is the meaning of it: "a factitious word alleged to mean 'a lung disease caused by the inhalation of very fine silica dust, causing inflammation in the lungs.'"

Few of us or zero % of us will be able to use or hear this word... now u know.... wahahaha

Manpuku @ Tampines One

2009-05-11T22:01:00.002+08:00

Today evening went for lunch with parent by a treat from da ge... the concept of the restaurant is almost similiar to Marche @ Vivocity or Shoduku @ Raffles City... however.. Manpuku's servings aren't able to compare to the mentioned restaurants... especially their Pork Asparagus.... 2 small pieces for the price of $2.50... sigh...

But then it was the first time for my parent to eat in this kind of restaurant... da ge say next time bring them to Shoduku to eat instead.. but i think otherwise.. coz the food are almost similiar.. perhaps next time i shall bring them to different concept of restaurants on my treat bah...

SPGG Swimming

2009-05-10T21:39:00.004+08:00

As arranged.. i met up with my pri sch friend & neighbour to go down to SPGG (Singapore Polytechnic Graduate Guild) for a swim.. i really hope that it will not be crowded with ppl and it is!!~ although there is people but only a few lah...

Been quite a long time before i last swim... think during army period bah... that time was training purpose.. not so leisure as today... i doubt the distance from one corner to another is the standard 25m.. but then we swim for 11 times of the length of the pool... it was a tiring one... and almost feel quite breathless at the very last round...

Afterthat... there was a small waterfall.. although there are alot of kids gathering over at the least deep pool... but then heck care lah... and we went below the waterfall....

I remembered i saw there's suana... jagucci... steam room... so i suggested we go deep into the toilet and went through a series of doors before we heat the hot/cold pool...

I've tried to go into the hot pool which is about 38degree.. but it took me sometime to submerge myself to the neck into the pool... been quite painful when going down... >.< but the thing is that Hao Jie went in bravely... inlcuding the cold pool which i didnt put my leg into it.. coz it is too cold liao...

Next we visited the suana room and stayed for quite awhile... chat inside and the sweat is flowing out like water... then i suggested we should take some pics and there we are inside the suana room.. seems like those 古惑仔 in hong kong movie sia...

Then the last one will be the steam room.. we have dehydrate ourselves inside the suana room and now we have to hydrate ourselves inside the steam room... both room cant stay too long coz it is getting tougher and tougher to breath...

It was a very nice swimming and we explored the whole facilities inside the SPGG after a good shower... we spotted the study room... jackpot room... bowling alley... pool room.. ktv lounge and the ballroom... it was quite a good club hangout sia...

I have suggested to go every bi-weekly Sunday morning... either to Tennis or Swimming or even both... can easily chill out the whole day there sia... oh yah.. got wireless@SG there too... ^_^

Exercise Commencing

2009-05-09T17:25:00.003+08:00

Now my exams are over... it will be another 2 months of break till the next semester starts... I'm gonna execute my exercise plans soon... gonna regularly do all the sports that i can do now... i'm so afriad i cant do anymore sports in the future... everytime i feel that my knee are getting weaker and weaker...

Swimming perhaps will be one good exercise to train my knee... till now i still dun dare to go for run.. i'm so scared that the pain comes back again.. it is already more than 6 months after the doctor asked me to rest for 6 months... everytime when i feel my knee... i'm so scared that it will nv recover...

Swimming should be today de.. but i just bought my swimming pants in tamp from Arena for about $30... actually i have those triangle types but i cant bring myself to wear that to go swim... so i bought those square trunks that covers most of the hairy parts... =PpP

Tml will be heading down to Singapore Poly Graduation Guide there to try out their swimming pool... not sure if it is gonna be as crowded as those public one... hmm... i'm not a graduate from Singapore Poly.. but then SingTel's recreation clubs allow SingTel stuff to enter as well.. so i've jioed my pri sch buddy tml afternoon to go there swim...

After that will still have Tennis with Desmond... Basketball with Zhutou or Sec Sch's buddies... badminton with SingTel colleagues.... beach volleyball with... dunno who can go with me... and as many sports as possible...

Oh yah.. still got cycling with Poly friends in Palau Ubin... dunno when are they gonna fix it on but i'll check with them soon... ^_^ wooooot.... so looking forward to a tiring sport events...

Exam finally over!~

2009-05-09T16:55:00.002+08:00

My last paper was on last Thursday 8th May 2009.. which was one of the toughest paper... Organisational Theory... Why is it so? because there was an unknown stress when lecturer told us the % of failures for last semester de.... hmm..

But then this unknown stress gave me more motivation to really push me hard to study for that module... especially it was a very application-based questions rather than asking you about the theories.. henceforth.. understanding the theories are more important than memorizing them....

If you ask me which is harder... i couldnt answer you as both are equally though for me... perhaps memorizing is better off for me... ^_^

Two Paper Down... Last one to go....

2009-05-05T16:46:00.003+08:00

Wahaha... finally the final day is coming... just one more paper and then my holidays will start... many plans have already made and just required a date.. motivation.. mood.. and perhap companion(s) to execute the plans... whahah.. not much travelling and tons of exercise and ball games...

This morning the paper Leadership & Management was a very theoritical paper.. which means that it is very important to memorize deeply on the theories... but then Part B are applications questions... i'm not sure if i did well on the part two.. it just all rubbish that i wrote into it...

Today at school actually run into alot of friends... before the exam i met up with joelle, mimo and saw many passby the canteen... then when sat inside the exam hall... more greeted me good luck... and then after the paper waiting for da bro to finish his paper... Ces & Jinhao saw me having some fruits with mimo and approach to greet me.. wow... and even on the way driving down the slopes.. i saw Tony smoking behind a lamppost.. of coz i shouted to him not to smoke in school... wahhaha.. he was shocked but after realise its me.. his first qns to me was... "oi oi oi~ How's ur paper huh??"

Anyway... not sure how willi fare for today paper... but really hope that i can score well.. .^_^

One Exam over... Two more to go..

2009-04-24T23:54:00.002+08:00

The pass few days were a hectic days for me.. i've been trying hard to get all the points into my head.. but when the next day i woke up... everything seems to be lost somewhere in the memory box in the brain and perhaps distorted and cannot be retrieved out.. so everyday seems to be studying over and over again... sigh...

I was at my peak point of frustrations 2 days ago when i just cant memorize anything... i wanted to give up until i decided to go east coast macdonald to force myself to study alone... so i wont be thinking about anything but just study!!!

At least i managed to cover some chapters that night and then i can see myself progressing well.. and till today.. althought not many points i can recall during the paper.. but i guess it is the paper itself is very open-ended.. and just on the "smoke machine" and can easily get over it..

^_^ i believe i can pass the Marketing Research... but then it is a matter of scoring well or not.. >.< but then the group assignment result is not out yet... i was with a new group this time without Zhutou and Mimo... but this new project group is quite efficient and fun to be with... perhaps this time unable to join them for their usual practice.. which is their famous '1hour discussion... 5hrs happy hours' theories...

Especially Jinny told me that they have a special "dance" before they submit the assignment.. but i missed twice of the dance.. hopefully next time i'll see it bah.. ^_^

清明节

2009-04-19T13:10:00.003+08:00

Woke up early this morning to go to the cementry to pray for grandparents.. Seriously i'm not closed to them because by the time i was borned.. both of them already lying in the ground... i only recognise them by the pictures they had on the tomb.

However, this might be the last few times going to Chua Chu Kang because they are going to dig it out, ordered by the Government to replace with new tenants... hence the ashes will have to reserve a space in a temple... and this time both grandma and grandpa can be placed side by side rather than being seperated for 28 years...

One of my cousin took a few picture with his good quality camera:

This is daddy's initial "bai bai" with 3 gigantic joss sticks... because on that the he is the only male children present on that day...

So this will be my turn to 'bai bai' already... see i'm so sincere... but then everytime i dunno what to say.. so my aunt will be beside us whispering those words that we should be saying...

So this is my eldest aunt... the first child of the generation... it has always been a trend in the family line... the first child of each generation will be a female... that includes my dad's generation.. my generation and also the following generations... weird huh?? or just coincidence??

And then while waiting for the auspicious time to burn the paper.. the wind is blowing hard and i have to sit down and guard the paper money... it has been well taken care off.... ^_^

~!Happy Birthday Zhutou!~

New Shirts New Pants

2009-04-15T21:08:00.002+08:00

Today went to Tampines One to collect the new pants that I bought together with Zhutou on last Friday. It was her Bday month and she was entitled a 50% to everything in G2000. And she jioed me to share the amount with her. And in the end I bought more stuffs than her...

I got myself 1 cuffing shirt, 1 fancy design shirt, 1 black/grey t-shirt and 2 pants for working... and these 2 pants had to be altered... they told me initially took 7 days to do the altering but they called me yesterday that it is ready for collection.

And so.. 2 new pants for working now... especially nowadays the older pants are too tight to put in my wallet and iPhone on my butt... so the two new pants are slightly wider to accomodate the needs.. lolx...

Aiya!!~ i know lah!~ i'm fatter liao lah!!~ do you have to say that?!~ >.<

Fen Jie's Baby Shower

2009-04-12T16:53:00.002+08:00

Been quite long nv seen fen jie already and today all the poly friends gathered at her block void deck. It was her baby's one month birthday.. that explains why all of us didnt see her for so long... But then her baby girl is very cute indeed... looks so much like her father...

Asparagus Day

2009-04-07T00:04:00.002+08:00

Today was quite a tiring day... early in the morning already cannot get out of bed liao... then have to drag myself to the bathroom to wash up... as usual... after the bath will be wide awake.. but then when i boarded the bus... i straight away fall asleep...

Along the way.. i was so tired that so deep into sleep and woke up in shocked... so afraid that i'll miss my bus stop... but then was always a false alarm and i had alot more stops to go... and then fall back to sleep again...

But then lunchtime zhutou insisted to go Suki Sushi to eat the lunch buffet... and pulled me and choon kiat there to eat... only to realise that kiat really dun eat raw fish meats... not even those that i cut a smaller portion.. and squeezed the whole lemon on it... by right there shouldnt have any taste already.. but it is the texture that he cannot take it... lolx... he has wasted the good food manz..

Of coz i wont forget my favourite asparagus... normally they dont serve as a vege itself but comes with the bacon... cant deny that it was a nice combo as it is bbq-ed together... there are 3 in a stick and i ate 3 sticks today.. that satisfied my urge for asparagus... ^_^

But i was damn full till my throat and any slight pressure to my tummy will cause me to vomit.. none of us dare to tease each other knowing that each of us will really vomit out.. =pP and due to the stupid sudden heavy rain... we were stucked at the cineleisure till 3pm before the rain get sightly smaller....

It is over...

2009-04-04T15:32:00.002+08:00

There's alot of things happened recently... starting with the assignments from this semester... all three assignments are finally completed and today submitted the last one on LM... the stress that i'm going thru... i guess only those that are close to me... will experience it and i'm not really handle it well... I've been hurting ppl as the stress builds up..

2009-03-31T00:10:00.002+08:00

Sigh... today's evening discussion with the LM groups wasnt a very good day for me... perhaps i was too tired bah... then i was taking over the lappy to work on somethings.. i forget wad things liao... then when i take over the mouse.. i accidentally clicked the "X" button and it prompted me whether to save the changes anot...

Then at this moment.. everyone was "A.. A... A!! A!!!! A!!!!!"... i dunno is I panicked or dunno what i'm thinking... i quickly go click "NO" without considering... and the bad news were.... all of them told me that they havent save it yet~~~

Shak!!~ then the previous efforts were gone... sigh.. all my fault sia.. but i told them.. aiya... test you all see what you all have learnt lor... lolx.. and they were blaming me for it till end of discussions.. lolx...

Human Statues along Singapore Rivers

2009-03-23T23:52:00.007+08:00

Just managed to download finish the high resolution pictures taken during the yesterday tour with Timothy... we were macham tourists yesterday.. holding on to cameras... camera stands... backpacks.. walking along from Bugis National Library to Victoria Theatrette.. Our intentions were to take pictures of Raffles Statues... and I meant the white colour one... because I already know the black colour one outside the Victoria Theatrette...

Initially Timothy told me the White Raffles Statue should be quite near to a museum nearby.. and we headed there as our first stops:

Singapore Arts Museum

Unfortunately, the white raffles was not there... but then we discovered there is another one standing on top at the front of the entrance. According to Timothy, he also got the same statue standing in his old secondary school.. St. Patrick School @ 490 East Coast Road.

That statue was the founder of St. John Baptist De Lasalle. There was a long descriptions from the following website: http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/08444a.htm and it is all about catholic religion... ^_^ Happy reading if you are interested..

The Arts House

Timothy recalled that his photography kakis took the White Raffles before and called to check with him... that guy guided us to North Bridge Road.. which is walking distances from where we are... so we slowing stroll towards that direction and Timothy took some pics of other historical buildings along the way.

And finally... here is the famous White Raffles Statue standing proudly along the Singapore river.. i think that was the same background if i can recall looking at it on the history textbook i have learnt during primary school.. all the while i was wondering where the hell it is.. and now it stands right in front of me... and Timothy took it with the SingTel buildings behind... I also didnt know there is a SingTel building there.. i tot it was a fake one from the F1 posters i saw when SingTel advertised as the sponsorer for the F1 GP...

Asian Civilisation Museum

We continued our shooting spree on the statues and shot quite a few along the side of the Singapore River when we head down towards the Victoria Theatrette to shoot the black Raffles Statue. We saw 2 sets of human statues along the way, and these 2 sets of human statues was actually a sculptor from different person:

The first one is sculpted by Malcolm Koh and it is a community project sponsored by ExonMobil. There is also a encrypted stone beside it saying these:

"Sir Stamford and Raffles wrote in 1819, 'Our object is not territory but trade, a great commercial emporium'. At the heart of the settlement's trade was the Singapore River. Lighter craft crowded the banks of the River along Boat Quay, and merchants had offices and godowns either here or a Commercial Square (Raffles Place). Early trade was in silk, cotten, spices and other exotic commodities, in the late 19th century, this shifted to rubber, tin and copra. European traders, like those here, profited from Singapore's trade but it was the Chinese traders, like the towkay holding an abacus, who generated the most wealth.

Providing much needed labour to the trading industry were Chinese and Indian coolies. Chinese coolies came from southeaster provinces of China, while Indian coolies hailed from South India. The Chinese coolie and towkay in this sculpture are identified by their queue, or pigtailm which the Qing authorities required all Chinese then to wear. When the Qing dynasty ended in 1912, queues where done away with. The Indian coolie wears the customary turbans. Life as a coolie was difficult. Coolies lived in cramped and squalid conditions, often with no proper ventilation or sanitation. Many a coolie ended his days in Singapore, alone and penniless, plying the trading boats that crowded the Singapore River.

Growing hand in hand with trade was the finance industry. The sculpture to the right encapsulates the dramatic changes that the finance industry has undergone from traditional moneylenders to today's stock market dealers."

The other was sculpted by Chern Lian Shan, also with a stone board crafted these words:

"Singapore's position as a centre for entrepot trade led to the proliferation of financial institutions. The settlement's first bank was the Bank of Calcutta, established in 1840. Financial businesses set up their offices near the Singapore River to be close to the area's many trading houses.

Early services were divided along ethnic lines. The moneylending business in the early days was primarily run by the Chettiars who came from South India. The Chettiars congregated at Market and Chulia Streets, and their offices were easy to spot. These usually comprised a clerk and a manager who sat behind a small low desk on a woven mat, as shown here. Clearing houses were the domain of the Chinese. Capitalising on abundant trade between Singapore and China, these companies thrived. Clerks, like this standing pig-tailed man, were a common sight as they bustled to and from offices in Commercial Square (Raffles Place).

Today, major local and multinational financial institutions provide a wealth of sophisticated financial services. On the trading floor of the Singapore Exchange almost everyday are hundreds of traders, whose distinctive jackets have become the symbol of economic growth. This tableau's lady trader hails the knowledge driven future, symbolised by the Millennium figure who leads the way into the Asian Civilisation Museum."

Phew!!~ enough of all the history of Singapore... there is also another two human statues along the track to the Victoria Theatrette, the statues potray the Warrior Official and the Civil Official during the several Dynasty in China.

Victoria Theatrette

Finally we have reached the theatre and took a few shots on the black Raffles... this is the replica of the white Raffles previously at the North Bridge Road... and that is the one i know... ^_^

Enough of that half a day being a tourist of Singapore... hopefully I may still find more human statues to display for my blog... i think there are still a few in Mt Faber... Labrador Park.. etc... Tune in for more HUMAN Statues of Singapore!!!~

Jun Xin's Bday @ Downtown East

2009-03-21T23:25:00.001+08:00

Early in the afternoon, I met up with Zhutou, Mimo & XiaoXia for a lunch at Siglap... it was our favourite makan spot for the food there... then after that Zhutou and Mimo got to go to pasir ris to work on the OT assignment... So i went back home to work on my part as well...

Then after that at 6pm.. XiaoXia came over to fetch me.. and then fetch XiaoMei... and then to tampines there to fetch Mimo and Zhutou... They were suppose to be at Pasir Ris de.. but then there got no wireless... so they switched place to tamp... but then even worst.. there was a celebration party downstairs and super damn noisy... dunno how they able to concentrate... =Pp

We reached the downtown east chalet at about 7:30pm... then i actually illegally went into the chalet... i was actually changing the $2 notes into $1 coins so that i'm able to enter... when i turned back.. i saw none of them and all already went thru the gate... so i was queueing behind 3 persons when i saw them waving their hands asking me to go from another side.. After that then i realised i was walking in thru the exit gate... lolx... i went in blur blur and the guard also blur blur...

Anyway.. the guy standing on the left was the bday boy, Jun Xin.. he is actually easily over 180.. see how short am I and XiaoXia standing right beside him... JunXin suppose to stand in between us de.. but then it will even display how short we are... >.<

Then soon we reached the chalet and waiting for the cut cake sessions.. and started playing games... again on the "Ni Wo Ta" poker game with XiaoMei and out punishment was signing the words that they mentioned onto the hands...

The cut cake sessions delayed for quite awhile until 9pm... and soon after the sessions.. JunXin's relative went off without eating the cake.. i was quite stunned lor.. and some of the kids didnt even know it's JunXin's bday and one of them actually asking me.. "Is it your Bday today?" Wao kaoz... =pp

But then i think during the photography with the Bday boy.. the kids should already know whose bday liaoz...

Straight after some of the frenzy photo shooting in the chalet... Mimo actually suggested to play Mahjong.. and so we proceed to my place for a session... Daddy quite miss his daughter.. XiaoMei... and luckily daddy got a chance to see her... coz XiaoMei initially wanted to go off earlier... lolx...

A Day in Ang Mo Kio

2009-03-15T12:54:00.008+08:00

Yesterday was a damn shag day... reached home at about 3am and slept at about 4am... then i didnt want to join the bball sessions with the guys... but i tell myself if i'm able to wake up myself.. then i'll go... and indeed.. the alarm still manage to wakes me up at 8am.. and then i just went down for the game.

I had a few games with the guys and those young kids from Springfield... haah.. we are too old to compare with the stamina they have... we lead in the first few points but was later over taken by them and they won us by a points... >.<>Dinner @ Ang Mo Kio Seafood Restaurant
After the boring LM lecture... it is the beginning of my Saturday!~ Even though i'm so damn tired... i still look forwards to celebrating Mimo's Bday!!~ I met her somewhere inside the sch and quickly rush to the bus stop to wait for XiaoXia's car... by the time we reach the bus stop... XiaoXia just niced make his U turn... hehe... and here goes our first programme!~

Very soon we reached the Seafood restaruant in Ang Mo Kio... this was the first time i came there to eat seafood.. according to mimo... the seafood used to be a corner store inside the coffeeshop.. and until today.. they somehow get very famous and transformed the whole coffeeshop into a seafood restaruants.... powerful ^_^ and even worst.. if we were slightly late.. it's gonna be an hour or so waiting time before we can get our seats...

The food we ordered came quick fast and just nice when we estimated the timing when the food came to out table... everyone was already on the table when the first dishes came... We ordered their specialist Crab Vermicelli & Black Pepper Crabs and also many other small dishes... and that sumptuous meals cost $240~ haha... at least still cheaper than the 8 tiger prawns from the Newton Circle there... =X

KBox @ Ang Mo Kio Ave 6
After the meal.. we went to somewhere near the Kbox there to have a desserts as the timing still early... over at the Kbox there... in order to save the $24 on the titbits.. i offered to sign up for the memebership for just $10... hiak hiak hiak,,, and the card was quite nice wor...

But still.. it was Mimo's bday.. so how can we miss out a cake?! haha.. and dun think she know that we ordered that cake in KBox itself... haha.. i wrote it here... so she'll know soon... =Pp

Actually havent been enjoying myself much since the beginning of school... all along rushing for lectures... tests... assignments... and soon will have exams.... >.<>

Zhutou came only after awhile.. wanting to give mimo a big surprise by bringing in the cake that we ordered... wahaha... i was surprised by myself too... she just suddenly appear.. and all our plans about pretending to be one of the waitress there didnt went true... haaha.. aiya... quite difficult to get a uniform from them anyway...

Finally the days end at about 2am plus plus... by then i already damn weak le... so i quickly go bath and ly on my bed... the whole day was in Ang Mo Kio... a place that I didnt really go there often... But still... Hope that Mimo did have a great day with us celebrating with her.. ^^ Happy Bday Mimo~

A song that spell out my feelings...

2009-03-10T13:32:00.004+08:00

Recently happened to listen to a song from 罗志祥 in his new album of 潮男正传... and this song appears inside the taiwan series: 篮球火... here's the MV that I got it from Tudou.com.. The lyrics somehow spells out my feelings toward someone who are quite special to me.. I hope that she's able to listen to this song... but i know the chances are low... coz she dun have a habit to see blogs..

But anyway... Enjoy listening to it bah... ^_^

没原因就是喜欢你

你如果已爱上他的姓名
爱如果已没有我的空隙

我会情愿渐渐被忘记

cause i believe 那幸福不灭的定律
在你手心会有谁给你的美丽
静者恒静就让我的心安静地守着你
把祝福送给你

oh i believe cause i believe
那幸福不灭的定律
你的手心不一定要由我握紧
就像恒星总会有发光的原因
oh i believe 你值得被珍惜
也值得我放弃

Busy Me

2009-03-09T13:05:00.007+08:00

It has been quite a hectic period for me... having 2 tests that cost 20% & 25% of the overall marks for OT & LM... fortunate to say that the paper for LM was kinda easy and straight forward..

I also noted that I havent been writing my blogs recently.. there always a saying around me about this phrase "Too many things yet too little time"... slowly realise that it is quite applicable for me as well...

Now the tests are over.. but i still got 3 assignments to rush and by then... i'll need to start preparing for exams liao... ^_^ have to face the stress somehow... why not make it a fun things.. (so fake) =Pp

Anyway.. I went to Suntec yesterday to do shoppings all alone.. luckily got my iPhone as my companion... from musics to movies during my lunch time... then while i was walking.. i suddenly thought of someone who mentioned about being independent... I used to have a concept that you will not see me alone outside... if I was to go out.. i'll sure find someone and if not.. i'll rather stay at home.. but then this girl told me that I should be independent to do things alone.. and not to depend on other ppl to do my own things... I guess now I understand what she meant that time.. and i'm now quite used to be alone at times... of coz must have my iPhone to keep me occupied... I still feel quite wierd seeing the restaurant table full of ppl except my table which i was alone.. i think sometime i may get used to it bah...

But still, my purpose to Suntec was to visit the Career & Job Fair 2009 which has Sentosa IR & Marina Bay IR job openning.. I went there to check out if there is any Marketing positions available.. I did found some interesting positions.. but then i didnt bring out any hardcopies of my resume.. so I decided to apply for the position thru internet... just trying my luck bah... ^_^

And also to get a present for Florence and her twin sister Alice. It's quite hard to choose a present for them sia.. I almost walked the whole of Suntec before deciding to get a pair of lucky charms as their present.... and shito.. forget to take a picture of it... sigh... >.<

Anyway I also visited a pet shop at the basement level... thinking to get a small gift for Ceejay (Florence new pet dog)... it was quite empty when i enter the store except there was three counter girls.. and so when i start browsing thru the racks... i saw this small rugby ball and when i tried to sqeeze it to test out the texture... it gives a loud skreeching noise... i was stunned abit by that.. but was even more stunned when one of the counter girl shouted... lolx.. she was also stunned by that sound too... and there goes some exchange of laughter inside the store... In the end.. i didnt buy anything as the gift was way too expensive to get.. sigh.. nowadays pet's toy are so expensive... but i still got a nice greeting of goodbyes by the counter girls when i stepped out the store... ^_^

Nothing for me to do in SunTec anymore.. so i decided to head back home.. and probably to play a game of basketball to get some sweat out of my body... but the court was fully occupied and i was so lazy to get out of the house... and so i stayed at home all the way till night time...

At night, I drove to met up with Florence and her bf... actually wanted to visit their new pet Ceejay and also pass the present for the twins... then i suggested to go East Coast to have some supper.. ahah... and even though it was quite late.. but they still agreed to go...

And next time.. please dont say that i'm afraid of dogs... i admit i used to scared of dogs last time.. but not now anymore... wahahah... =Pp

Sinful dinner

2009-03-01T23:11:00.004+08:00

Mum & Dad went to Malaysia early in the afternoon with 2nd Bro to the new Jusco near the seafood restaurant that they often eat there... they must have enjoyed the fresh crabs... prawns... fishes with cousin they all... sigh.. i was too tired to joined them after my test this morning and just wanted to rest at home..

I dated Ai Fang and Zhong Qi to Tamp to have dinner together... initially i wanted to makan pizza hut de.. but then the queue was so long even the time was abt 8pm... sigh.. so we choose to eat the Pasta Mania instead... When I reached there.. I saw Lionel queueing up and Siying sitting down at the seat... haha.. so i talked to Lionel for awhile but then unable to talk to Siying coz she is sitting quite inside...

Right after our dinner.. i suggested to eat some ice cream as desserts.. so we went to century square Haagen Dazs for some ice cream... but in the end.. zhong qi wanted to have some Fondue instead... and so we ordered it... we were being served by a waitress that looks very very young... we guessed that she is about poly level.. but she is already a supervisor in the restaurant... so out of curiosity.. Qi asked that waitress (btw her name is Katherine) about her age and she answered back honestly that she was already 22... wow... that's quite surprising sia.. she looks so young...

Anyway.. Ai Fang used my iPhone to take some photos of the Fondue and herself... lolx.. she also took a pic of me and was taken very nice... personally i should say.. haha.. and really had a very full desserts with them... ^_^

One down and more to GO!~

2009-03-01T14:41:00.005+08:00

The paper for OT was quite hard today.. i have been studying for the module since 1 weeks ago.. starting by writing down my own notes and even took leave on Friday just to study that subject... As usual, the memorizing part always on the last 2 days on all the theories... applications.. etc.. It is tough.. but i'm enduring it as much as i could...

Not sure how will i fare for this test.. this OT test worth 20% and it covers chapter 1-5... it's gonna be more for the exam... sigh.. its gonna be a test of how will i fare for my exam as well.. hopefully it turns well... but i'm not very confident about it...

So to calculate... there will be 1 more tests... 3 more assignments submissions and 3 more exam papers to complete... >.<

I went down to Telok Bengah again on Friday to meet up with Cindy again.. wanted to bring her to some nice place but she suggested the nearby ktv pub near her place.. for her.. i forgo slightly abit of my belief... which is drive no drink theories... and i really control my beer until only drink half a mug... what really amazed me was her singing...

she told me that's the first time she ever sing to other ppl except her bf... and through the conversation... she and her bf love to analyse how the songs should be sang... and that's what bring both of them together... now i understand why she love her bf that much.. or am I wrong about it?

Anyway.. on that very same day.. i met up with Cindy's bf the first time... he doesnt looks like the age he suppose to be.. and i'm somehow unwilling to go into the pub that her bf is in.. but she pulled and insisted me to go in.. sigh... I was quite surprised that she asked me who was the dream girl i mentioned in my facebook status.. and without realising i was saying about her... she got that blur meh??

i didnt manage to tell her on that night but i told her on the next day.. she was quite stunned and asked why it was her.. I did told her that it's all the feeling that she gave me whenever i met her.. but then i did mentioned that although she's my dream girl.. but doesnt mean that she have to be together with me... i hope that was clear for her and hopefully she arent affect by the tremor...

Hey girls out there... is it a tremor to you when you know that a guy are placing you as his dream girl? if so, how will you exactly feel?

8 Statues Captured

2009-02-22T15:08:00.006+08:00

My first piece of work after I decide to start looking for all the statues in Singapore. And the first place i went to was a goldmine to me... haha.. rarely u will see so many statues at a place.. and the area i went to, has a total of 8 statues placed there...

The location is the very first place that inspire me to start looking for statues:

Parkview Square, 600 North Bridge Road

The "garden" was along the bus route of Bus 7 which i always will passby every morning when i heading to the office:

These are the 8 Statues captured!~

CHOPIN(left) & NEWTON(right)

DANTE(left) & DALI(right)

SUN YAI-SEN(left) & CHURCHILL(right)

LINCOLN(left) & PLATO(right)

Initially thinking to write a little history of them.. but it alot alot of works and research to be done.. so i simply dropped the idea... just the pics will do... haha.. ^_^

Back at Singapore Post again.

2009-02-22T14:49:00.003+08:00

Now i'm at the same place as yesterday @ SPC's Coffee Bean.. with a cup of ice-blended coffee and updating my blog again...

It has been a very shag night yesterday.. I went to Jazz Pub again to meet up with XiaoFang & Yuru+Sam for a small gathering... both girls had alot of troubles and i'm there to listen and give some comments for them... hopefully they can handle those things on thier own... It's very hard to share your own troubles to the others.. especially when you know the others are also having their own troubles to handle...

But then yesterday afte a little drinks.. XF spilled alot of her unhappiness... which include one of her unhappy conversation with me... It was some selfish comments of mine that i need to be mindful next time... hehe.. sorry my little xf about my comments... i'll not speak to you like that again wor... haha.. try lah.. but then dun be so mindful about my comments.. coz i speak jokingly most of the times... if you insist of knowing.. i'll still let you know de... just treat is as a jokes k? =Pp

Anyway.. i went home at about 2am in the morning and slept at about 3am.. then has to wake up by 10am to meet up with the LM group discussions at bugis library... as usual.. i hoped on to Bus 7 at my bus stop... but today got a very strange encounter...

I was sitting at my favourite seat staring out the window and listening to my iPhone musics... then just one or two bus stops away... a malay guy.. age around 30 plus.. climbed up the stairwell and heading to the back seats... when he passby my seats.. he just suddenly sat right beside me... i was damn shocked and gave a very stern stare at him... you must be thinking what's wrong with the malay guy sitting beside me?

The strange thing was that the bus are very empty with only a few seats occupied... why the hell that malay guy wan to sit right beside me?!? kaoz.. then my stern stare at him easily drove him away and he quickly get up and sit at the other side of the bus... wao lao... i was wondering if he is a gay lor... and only 2 stops later... he alight.. and seems like he is gonna find another target... haha.. luckily my natural reaction scared him away... but if that person was a pretty young lady.. haha.. if she suddenly change seats.. i'll grab her hand and pull her back instead lor.. haha.. hey... i'm still a normal guy okay?! >.<

Anyway... i was late for the meeting.. think about 45mins late when the meeting suppose to start at 11am... haiya... not i want de lor.. there was a traffic jam at the bus lane near Lavendar road... so the bus was travelling very slow until it reach the Beach road... the meeting was quite success and we seperate the assignment to individually... and of coz i'll always volunteer to get the hardest part... sigh... >.< got to allocate some time to work on it soon... but before that... need to concentrate on my upcoming tests first...

Wayne's House Warming

2009-02-21T19:23:00.005+08:00

This morning I woke up without the alarm... it was a very very relaxing saturday with not much stress... been quite stressful with works and studies for the past few weeks and woke up early to attend group project discussions on the weekends morning...

Today my only program was to go to Wayne's housewarming by 12pm.. but i was kinda lazy and wondering if zhutou will be going today.. unable to contact her since morning leh... not sure if she is fine now... but in the end.. i cant wait le.. so i quickly go bath at about 1pm and leave my home... I was informed that i suppose to take bus 26 to St Andrew school and then walk to Wayne's condo... but then I couldnt see any Fire station (which suppose to be one stop before the one i need to alight).. and then i ended up in Toa Payoh interchange... >.<>

By the time i reached, Duncan and YiMing already left.. they was there since 12pm liao.. and only left Kelvin+Daphne & JunXin+GF.... haha.. everyone come in a pair except... haiz.. dun say le lah.. sad already... that two couples left around 4:30pm and that was about the same time Angeline Han+Kenny came over... haha.. and as usual.. i was always too late to take out my camera and start taking some shots for my blogging... so i only managed to take pics on Mimo & XiaoHan... haha.. and i didnt take Wayne's pic... lousy lah~~~

And in the end.. i left together with XiaoHan and take a ride to Aljunied MRT station... initially suppose to go Bugis to get something for Cindy de... but since i'll be having a meeting tml at the Bugis library.. then i decided to find a place to study...

Here I am at Paya Lebar CoffeeBean logging onto my lappy and not started studying yet... but i saw a very interesting sight right infront of me...

It's a very young.. should i say they are couple or friend... coz they are too young to be couple le... perhaps sec 2 and below bah... couldnt be older than that... and they are behaving quite intimately in the public... but then most of the time... these actions was initiate commonly by the guys.. but what's make it so interesting until now was that it was intiated by the girl... haha.. do you know what?? it was the girl who went to queue up and spend her own money to buy a cup of coffee to share with that guy... and that guy actually sitting down and play with his phone... hahaha... this arent a things that i will allow any of my girl friends to do.. even though we arent a couple or what.. but i tot it was very ungentleman to let the girl queue and pay for me...

What's really interesting was behind when i see that girl throwing herself to the guy... initially both were sitting quite apart... then the girl slowly sit nearer and nearer to the guy and squeezed the guy to the corner of the sofa already... and sometime saw her lying her head on the guy's shoulder... how scandalous was that manz.... i cant imagine next time my daughter is doing that to a girl... sigh... but anyway.. if they are a couple... i'll give my blessing to them.. hope they can last ever after... but in the realistic world... they are just some sort of puppies love... ^_^

ok ok... enough of typing and back to my OT test!!~

With Cindy @ VivoCity

2009-02-18T00:14:00.004+08:00

With Cindy @ VicoCity... it sounds kinda rhyme while saying it.. isnt it?? ^_^

It was suppose to be a very horrible Monday morning... I was awoke by the aching pain on my shoulders... both left and right... as well as a very bad handover after last night activity... i didnt really drink until drunk.. but only fall right asleep after i lied onto the bed... perhaps it was the position that i slept that causes the very bad aching...

I finally crawled out of the bed after enduring the agonising pain for about 10mins, which started as early as 9am... and i slowly called my friends and complaint about that stupid aching pain... and i also called Cindy to complain too..

She told me that she also had that kind of experience and was slightly bedridden for the whole day... she said was because my slping posture when i'm drunk which caused the aching pain... haha.. And i was quite surprised that she havent been sleeping throughout the night... haha.. another big addict on Pet Society.. >.<

But she still remember our date in the evening and she said that she's going to sleep soon and when she woke up.. she'll give me a call... i'm so so looking forward to the evening time.. even though my shoulder are still aching with pain... that will nv stop me from meeting her...

I planned to work on my assignments and tests at home during the afternoon but joven msged me if i want to join him to study in TP... Realising that my environment wasnt allowing me to concentrate.. I quickly bath, pack my bags and head down to TP...

At about 5pm.. i was already unable to concentrate on my studying anymore.. the main reasons wasnt because of Cindy.. coz she havent called me yet... but it was the aching pain i had since morning.. it wasnt recovering lor... and totally torturing me.. and very very soon.. Cindy finally called me and asked what time I'll be meeting her... haha.. of coz i'll would like to say right now... but she wasnt ready yet... so i told her to meet around 8 at VivoCity...

I was kinda late because i alighted at the wrong station... why the hell i alight at Marina Bay instead of HarbourFront MRT... even worst i already tapped out the gate and even went upstairs before realising i'm at the wrong station.. >.<

I brought her to Marche to eat some light snack... actually i also wanted to do a research on my Marketing course assignment... so i bought the famous Rosti there to eat... that was her first time at Marche and her first try on Rosti... i didnt manage to snap a picture of it because by the time i tot of taking the pic... we have already eaten half of it already... she loved the Rosti very much and also being tempted by one of the vege stall that sell mushrooms and other vege stuffs... so i also bought the smallest bowl and fill it full of mushrooms... haha..

After our meal.. she suggested to go to the Coffee Company to sit down and chat... haha.. i dunno that area well and she led the way there... I remembered i ordered a Caramel Swirl for myself and Expresso Mocha for her... ^_^ wonderfull i still remember it wor.. =Pp and we sat outside the shop which was facing the Sentosa... the scenary was damn shiok.. and would be even better if the IR is completed.... and I start taking some pics there... ^_^

She was laughing at my bulky Nike bag that i was carrying all the while.. haha... but when i start taking out the stuff inside... she was quite touched of the things that I brought for her... especially knowing that i had the aching shoulder since morning... =P Inside my bag was a nice Organizer... which i promised her to bring to her during our last meeting... she thought that I would have long forgotten it already.. but i remembered... and also another big files of some stuff that she said she wanted to see too... I was so glad to see her "touched" reaction... haha...

I really cherished everytime i met up with her... ^_^ but then time passed so fast without realising i already missed my last train home... really hope to see her again soon.. she also shared with me some of her personal problems... and of coz i'll do anything to help her.. of coz within my limit...

Birthday Celebration for XinYi @ Jazz pub

2009-02-16T12:29:00.005+08:00

It was the 24th Bday of our dearest Xinyi... the overall organizer for the surprise celebration is our dear dearest missy little XiaoFang... i believed she was quite new in organizing such events and she actually made alot of mistakes which somehow let Xinyi know something wrong is happening on that nite...

But still.. when we suddenly appeared behind Xinyi with her Bday cakes and her fav hubby holding on to the cake... she was so touched that she cried... she didnt expect that all of us will appear... and really was everyone lor... including ZhongQi who give the biggest face to join us...

Too bad that Yuru's hubby havent arrive when we took the 'family' pics... haha.. 11 of us and 2 are married liao.. guess in 5-10 yrs time.. there will be at least 22 of us... or maybe 1-2 more.. haha.. easy guess and you will know why 1-2 more... haha...

Look at the small little gift that XiaoFang specially made for Xinyi's bday.. it was a photo of us... another "quan qia fu" when we took one year ago... but i forget on whose bday when we celebrate in Tamp Blk 201 there... Xinyi was so so touched and i guess she may nv forget it for the rest of her life... will she?? haha...

I was also very happy on that day... because i somehow eased the tension between me and Xinyi... but i guess it'll nv be able to ease the tension i had with the other guy... nv in my life i guess... ^_^... but anyway... yup.. i took pics with Xinyi and was really very excited... haha.. then throughout the night.. i played endless games with the girls.. the guys... and in the end.. drank quite alot of beer on that night... now i'm so scared of my beer belly sia... haha..

I also took a pic with sister yuru... been very very long nv really chat with her heart-to-heart le... i used to be very scared of her... coz haha.. when she is angry... she'll eat me up alive de lor... haha.. kidding lah.. she is a very very nice girl... and a kindergarden teacher leh... need so much care & love to take care of so many active children...

I managed to find a chance to talk to her about her smoking habits all these thingys... then suddenly the topic changed to quite emotional.. and when she talked to me about her troubles.. i also almost teared with her... i tried to stop her tearing by diversing the topic off abit.. and it really works... but we'll still come back to the topic and she was not that emotional after that... but then our chat was stopped when it was quite late le.. about 3-4am i guess and all of us had to go home le...

Then I suggested to meet up with her and chat again... hopefully i can help her up whatever i can... haha... it was about 3-4am already wor.. and luckily i applied leave on the next day, which was a monday... haha... the road was quite empty and i was quite lucky to grab a cab home.. on the way i also saw a group of people hanging at the bus stop.. but i was too tired to notice that they were actually Joven they all who left slightly earlier than me & yuru...

But still... most importantly Xinyi had a great night.. and i also enjoyed my night there... been quite long nv enjoyed myself so much.. maybe it's the mentally of mine.. that has changed and grown... i like the way i am now... ^_^

Valentine's Day 2009

2009-02-14T23:24:00.000+08:00

For my V'day 2009... i'm already mentally and physically prepared that it is either i celebrate with all my single friends... or i'll just stay at home and let this horrible day passby peacefully.. I dropped a topic inside the facebook to all the sec sch singles but most of them are occupied... haiz.. even though they are registered as singles... =((

However, in the end, left ZhongQi and Patrick... so i suggested that we go for a Kbox and Qi suggested to get AiFang go as well... And so.... i woke up quite early on 14 Feb itself.. and then quickly called to book for a room.. initially wanted to go for TopOne... over there we can smoke-out ourselves inside the room... but when i called at around 11:45am (Open @ 11:30am)... the rooms were already fully booked.. Disappointed?? of coz lah!~ then i tried my luck at the Pasir Ris Downtown East Kbox... lolx.. and "chop" a room there...

We met around 2pm and AiFang as usual late again.. i was walking towards the area from interchange when Qi and Pat called me and say they going in first... so i'm assigned to wait and bring AiFang into the room...

Haha... seems like me and pat are the lightbulbs of the day... =P not to mentioned too much in details... but you all the the pics and you'll understand... =X

Anyway.. the room assigned to us was kinda huge.. my guess... it should be around 6- 10 people... and when i passby one of the largest room when heading to the toilet... haha.. inside only got a couple lor... that couple damn fortunate... got pool table inside somemore...

After the singing.. should be around 6pm.. we head down to the jap restaurant called Hei Sushi... which is the Halal version of Sakae sushi.. guess they did a market research in the area and found out that mostly the tenants for the NTUC chalet were mostly malays.. and they are targetting that group of people.. but seems like it wasnt very successful when i saw none of the muslims were eating inside... lolx..

After the meal... I couldnt think of any program for the night... Qi mentioned that if there is no other prog... he suggested to go CineLeisure for... haaha... of coz not movie lah.. 2 big guy watching movie in V'Day... kinda gay-ish sia... haha.. =p

We went there for gamings... he was addicted to a new game called Left4Dead... somehow all the playing patterns similar to CounterStrike... so it wasnt difficult for me to handle that game... we booked a 3 hours computer each till about 11:30pm... lolx.. it was super damn fun lor.. especially the shiok-ness of killing all the zombies... I also managed to handle the most difficult zombie which is called the "Tank"... super big size and hard to kill... i was wondering if sniper able to deal lots of dmg to it or not... shall try again if there is any chances...

Human Statue in Singapore

2009-02-11T22:08:00.003+08:00

This morning suddenly has a very big inspiration... how many human statue does Singapore have? This is a question that only a few Singaporeans may be able to answer it... and even they answered.. they might miss out a few or two... hahha...

I guess it's all started while i was wondering in Raffles place.. then a tourist was asking me where could he find the Raffles Statue... then my first impression was to point towards the centre of Raffles Place infront of the OUB centre... coz primary sch history textbook got show a white Raffles Statue there... but it was wrong!!! hahha.. that tourist sure doubt the history education level of Singaporean... but on the way walking towards Fullerton there... i saw the brown Raffles Statue there!~~ haiz.. but where is the white one?? ppl say that the White one is placed inside the National Museum... and everytime i take Bus 7 to office... i'll passby there and will remembered abt the incident...

So perhaps whenever I got time.. i should use my iPhone go around shooting all the human statues that exist in Singapore... haha.. let's see how many statue i may be able to find in Singapore!!~

Bangkok Trip (18 Dec - 21 Dec) continue... ...

2009-02-09T22:08:00.008+08:00

Writer's Notes: It has been 3-4 months since I last updated my journey to BKK... things are very different since then... but then.. hope I have covered most of my experience in BKK... as this is the first time going so far away from Singapore with friends...

Day 2 (19 Dec 2008)
Still continuing on the 2nd day because as I was looking thru the pics taken, I realised that I missed out alot in the previous two entries. I think this is one of the part that I missed out...

I think that we were shopping at the Weekend Market in BKK since early morning till afternoon about 3pm like that... Our next destination was to go to Siam Paragon there which after that to BKK... We were suppose to take trains to our next destination...

We were actually browsing thru the mini station map on the screen to see which station should we be pressing... be surprised that their underground stations are using the similiar technology as our local MRT... which mean that you press the station u want to go.. then the price will be displayed... the problem was that the underground train station was going one big round and we need to change... but according to the map I was holding.. there was another shorter and direct way...

Then after that, dunno which girl.. abi or esther.. actually know that we should be taking a sky train nearby... so we quickly explore our way thru the crowd and then finally we reached to the sky train... ^_^

Very soon, we reached the Siam Paragon very soon and then we do a little shopping as it wasnt our "type" of luxury shopping... haha.. the dark was quite dark when we walked out the Siam Paragon... and to our next destination MBK... on the way.. there was quite a few shops for us to shop... but the price wasnt very friendly too...

Finally we reached the MBK shopping mall... it is a must-go place if you visit Bangkok.. i dunno why lah.. but it was kind of landmark for Bangkok... Abi took a few pics of it while we were on the bridge... I remembered by then we were all tire out already.. and I actually dun feel like shopping.. I still wondering why we didnt took any pics while we were inside the MBK... bearly have some vivid memories over there...

Day 3 (20 Dec 2008)

It was the last day of our trip.. today we still want the do more shopping.. so we woke up early again and went down for breakfast.. but this time without Esther and Wei Zhong.. because both of them not feeling well.. hence.. they need more sleep and three of us went off... I still remembered the road to the Platinum Shopping Mall from our hotel as the previous night we took the Tut Tut-motor to our hotel.. we passed-by the Platinum mall before we reached our Hotel.. so we decided to walk our way to the Platinum Mall... on the way we experience alot of the local culture... we walked along their back alley... along their road as if we were local... haha.. and then indeed.. I still remember how to walk there.. not bad huh.. still qualify to be officer-level of "tapo-ing"... in army term: Navigation... hahah...

We were quite early when we reached Platinum Mall.. it was the 2nd time we came here.. and Abi recalled that she need to get a few dozens of liquid paper for her sister... and we went up to the top level to the accessories stores to purchase them... other than the liquid papers.. Abi also bought quite a few recycled paper bags.. guess those are her favourite items bah...

Then we slowly do the shopping till all the shops opened... I was shopping for my jeans while Abi and Kiat sitting down and wait for me... Abi took a few pics of me.. but while i'm wearing their SARONG!! >.<>

Initially Kiat didnt dare to wear the sarong to try our the pants.. but in the end when he saw a nice pants.. he tried it on with a sarong... and of coz... abi wont missed this rare chances...

After all these shoppings... there was nothing much for us to shop anymore... time was still early and we went out to have some Dougnuts outside the mall.. the taste was quite different to those in Singapore... but coz of the large amount of chocolates.. we managed to finished it all... ^_^

And so... it was about time to walk back to the hotel... on the way.. Kiat tried out their Maggi Mee at the road store.. this was the things that most of us doesnt wan to try... haha.. but Kiat missed it after his last army visit to Thailand...

Alot of unwillingnes... but it was time to leave BKK... overall it was a very nice experience with them... That was the end of the fun and back to our actual world... no more relaxation... but do we actually relaxed? or we are all tire down after the consecutive days of shoppings?

Adeline's Bday Celebration

2009-02-08T22:11:00.005+08:00

I had a very packed Saturday.. phew.. i'm glad that it's all over... ^_^ I woke up as early as 8am to start preparing to go back to SIM for LM assignment discussions with the group members... lucky daddy drive me there.. if not i cant imagine i'm taking the train in the early morning... ^_^

Then after that if goes as planned, i should be meeting the sec sch friends for house visiting to bai nian... but then it was cancelled due to insufficient participants.. superly damn sad de lor... but no choice.. it was quite last minute organising.. and most of them are rushing assignments... so no choice lor.. I called up my sis to meet up instead... coz she wanted to go amend her new jeans to fit on her company event in the night... I also need to get the present for Adeline's Bday...

Sis Mel also say wan to join me to my poly friend's Adeline Bday celebration... I think she abit regret coz she thought was joven they all.. but it's rather my poly friends... but she still joined us.. but aiya.. girls expression normally write on their face de... so I try to acc her more...

The location was so damn shiok... the party was held @ Sentosa Beach Resort top level... The room comes with a "Jagcusi" (pls tell me how to spell.. =pP).. .the whole room is actually for couple de.. but it has to accomodate about 20 pax inside.. so in the end the cake cutting was held in the balcony upstairs...

Luckily i came back in time for the cake cutting as before that i suppose to fetch Sis Mel to her company event @ Orchard Hotel... i think they are actually waiting for me to come back bah.. =pP.. haha... these poly friends are a batch of funny girls and guys... Adeline also invited her other group of friends that I know them abit.. coz i sometimes joined Adeline's party... She actually hold alot of party on those festivals.. e.g. New Year.. Christmas.. etc..

I also met the other girl, Deng Li, as well... she was Jerry's friend who previously helped me before.. that time wanted to go to Genting with them.. but last minute I remembered I got Mob Manning on that week and unable to go overseas... and the tickets was bought already... oh no no no... then Jerry manage to get his friend.. which is Deng Li to take my place to go instead.. Many thanks to her!~

Had an eriee encountered when I came back to Sentosa after fetching Michelle back to Bedok.. on the way back.. there was an accident along AYE which jam the whole road.. when I passby that area... the accident actually involved a bike... normally it's hard for cyclist to survive in an accident.. especially on the expressway... after the jam was a smooth journey across the Sentosa bridge.. but then when i reached the payment counter and pass my multi-entry pass to the counter... that person at the counter actually quoting me 2 person entry... then I stunned and shout back.. "Wao Lao!!~ where got 2 ppl?!?!?" there was only me inside lor!!~ that was when I release my hand after i pass the tickets to them.. then there is a sudden gush of wind that blows one of the ticket away... STUNNED!~ but then when the person came out from the counter to pick up the tickets... she also peeked inside my car to confirm.. and heng ar... she mistaken my bag as another passenger... is it real?? dun care.. just assume bah.. dun think too much...

I came back to the room again... Adeline and her friends were playing blackjacks.. i also wanted to join but i go up to the balcony to look for Jerry they all first... then they were not interested with the game.. but i coaxed them to come down be my Fu Lu Shou... haha... so coincidently... when i joined the first game.. got one guy got two aces... wow.. win 3 times of the bet leh... >.<>

After a few games.. Sis Mel called me that her event was over already... I only played a few rounds and have to go le... =(( then i quickly greet goodbye to them and then leave the place liao...

My next program was to go have a nights out with Sis Mel... Initally intend to go Kallang Kbox to sing.. but Sis Mel too tired.. then we go East Coast there to relax... I remember Esther told me there's a nice place call Twenties-Six... then I bring Sis Mel there.. but that area was unexpectally dark and Sis Mel cant see clearly there... that makes her even more tired... =(( the area was quite cosy with nice music playing... and there both of us some chat but most of the time she was in a daze... sensing her tiredness.. i quickly finish the food and drinks and leave the place...

By the time i'm home.. it's already 1am plus plus le... then quickly go bath and sleep coz have to wake up in the morning for another project discussion... =((( happening huh...

We were in the same polytechnics and often see each other inside the school... then next time i saw him was during my officer course in SAFTI MI... he was also an officer but in Signal and signed-on... then after SAFTI.. so coincidently we met each other again in our individual unit, 3DISCOM... he was the Signal Officer and I was the AS3 of the unit..

Saying about that.. We actually covered alot of each other's "s**t" while we are in the unit... lolx and we managed to cross that period peacefully with no MAJOR issue.... lolx...

Those were the days......

Wierd Wierd Afternoon Dream

2009-02-01T17:06:00.002+08:00

Wow... got a very fantasy dream... been quite long nv really dream so wildly le... haha... it is not those guy type of fantasy... but is macham like those "go to the future" type of a dream...

I dreamt of a girl (cant really remember her face)... in the dream.. i seemed like invisible to everyone and the whole event was all about that girl... my first scene start from she was wearing a red uniform... and she happened to overheard someone mentioned that these 3 pilots (she's one of them) were going for a very risky testing on human being... I also not sure what is the contents are... but it's not gonna be good... and then she panicked but had to her seat acting "calmly"... then when the 3 pilots are allowed to proceed to their next location... she managed to escape halfway and accidentally went into a "secret" room...

What amazed me was that all the while they are on the similar seats... which bring them everywhere just by controlling it with their hand... I think the dream somehow connected to the WallE movie that I watched ages ago... haha...

then hor... she realise it is a secret R&D room that has project as well as providing "prostitution"... >.<>.< i turn back to look for her... she seems quite afraid... and luckily with a slight chance... she quickly climb up the stairs and went into a reading room... inside the room there was a women reading a book.. and there is a door which she took leading to the main alley and out of the whole building... I think by this time she's already on foot as there might be a tracking device on the seat.... ^_^ fantasy huh...

The next scene that quite clear was she was on a upclimbing escalator (aka "upslope" escalator =Pp) then there was a red laser device scanning each and everyone's for the eye's recognition and luckily she passed the recognization and was not held back... inside the door was a very big casino cum shopping centre... and there was only a few crowds inside... the casino very not "futurelistic" coz of the old slots machine that we had today... haha.. maybe i'm unable to connect the future casino in my dream bah...

Somehow I was awaken at the point of time when she met up with 2 of her girl friends on the street outside the mall.. and i was still shocked about the dream on my bed... Why I will make that kind of dream? Was I really went into the "future"?? i dunno.. or it is all just a dream...

I really hope that I can be in the future myself... seeing how advance the technology will be.. and also what kind of environment will that be... or the future of earth will be like what the documentary said... a total destruction??

Great Time @ Kelvin's Place

2009-01-25T14:53:00.003+08:00

Before we went to Kelvin's place... We (mimo, Xiaoxia, Abi and Snoopy) went down to the Teochew restarant to makan dinner and also to give xiaoxia a small celebration for his bday which falls on the 1st Feb... Happy Birthday Bro!~

Actually i dun understand why would I do that funny pose with Snoopy lor... even i see now i still feel that person is not me... perhaps i'm just "high" le...

Really had a great time playing with them yesterday over at Kelvin's place... XiaoXia brought his Wii over to his place and whole night we were playing the Wii... actually we reached there quite late already... i think about 11plus le... then we play and play without realizing the time was passing very fast.. It was already 4 plus and we are still having a good time there...

We played quite alot of games inside the Wii and we challenged each other for most of the games... the most funniest part was always on Abigale lor.... she still that blur blur de lor... haha... hopefully i can grab the picture and videos that we took yest night and i'll post it up here...

Initially I tot i will feel weird seeing them together.. but then i was acting quite different when i see them... i can still joke around with them.. perhaps I already put down the feeling and then treat her as normal friends le bah... haha.. but still on the way back home after XiaoXia dropped me at the busstop... i cant stop thinking about it... be friend can be ever-lasting but it may be different if being together... perhaps i'm still not ready for it bah...

The day is coming

2009-01-21T21:47:00.002+08:00

Finally after almost 3 weeks of my course in Kranji camp.. it is going to mark an end to it by this coming friday... why i write so early?? lolx.. that is because today was the "finale" which is the final AOS exam... it was a 4hrs paper lor.. and everyone was so shag after the exam and did not want to carry on the last exercise... I finally "tong" until now... almost everyday went to the camp restlessly and aimlessly... I didnt want to attend this course de.. but it was nice to know those young fathers inside there...

Honestly they makes me so yearning to be one too.. =)) haha... and Tan CC has just welcomed his new baby girl on Monday... guess he was super duper stress during the paper... coz he missed the most important lecture on monday...

Anyway.. Hope that everyone will pass the paper and graduate together... haha.. Friday there is a ceremony for the graduation... lolx.. i guess we need to wear quite formal on that day bah... looking forward wor!!~~

But then i abit scared of going back to the office to face the "reality"... but then i guess I should force myself to face it bah... ^_^

Poly Gathering @ Miramar Hotel

2009-01-18T14:06:00.002+08:00

After the embarrassing moment @ SiJia's place... I took a ride from Zhutou to the nearest MRT... haha... thinking about taking a cab down when I reached Clarke Quay... then when on the way.. Janice Jie sms me asking if i'm going too... so I arranged to meet her and go together... thinking she will go... but in the end used my GPS to track where the hotel is... and luckily is within walking distance...
I reached there at about 6:30pm and the organizer (Seng Giap) was late lor... and everyone is waiting for him to begin... it was a buffet style.. but then most of them are deep fried and make us feel very "gilak" after awhile...

However.. it is not the food lah... it is the gathering that we looking forward too.. there are many of them that i rarely meet up and then had a nice chat with them... I was already very tired... but then i still follow them for a drink near Cuppage centre after the dinner...

iPhone Gathering on Friday Nite

2009-01-18T13:37:00.004+08:00

It was actually a gathering for those iPhone holder... but sadly to say.. the gathering turns into a mahjong sessions in the end. Initially there wasnt any gathering to begin with... it's all started when i wanted to help Vivian to Jailbreak her iPhone so that she can play her fav game DinerDash. But then when I mentioned that she need to come my place for the wireless.. she sounds abit uncomfortable.

So in order not to be so wierd... I jioed Joven and Qi together and configure together... Joven wanted to re-break as his phone still unable to upload 3rd party games. and Qi wanted to upgrade his version to 2.2....

Then in the afternoon Joven asked if want to play MJ as well... as Jinhao & Pat will be joining us too... i was like (-_-) but in the end I agreed...

Then after my lecture in SIM... I meet up Qi in sch and then went down to fetch Joven and Vivian to my place... we tried to configure till around 1am but there is still having some problem... then Hao and Pat was siting there waiting for us to play MJ... then after I completed my part to break 2.2 version for vivian... it is Qi's turn to help her install the rest of the programs. So me and Joven started the MJ...

Halfway thru.. Qi came into the room and told me that vivian's phone cannot access wireless internet and i found out it is one of the bug that was mentioned in the forums.... so suay leh her.. and even worst her lappy low batt already... then I couldnt help her to reconfigure again and couldnt complete her jail breaking... Zzzz... Then I promised her that I'll reserve my Sunday to help her configure complete her iPhone... hehe.. shouldnt have agreed to play MJ that nite...........

Long-Lost Friend

2009-01-07T01:03:00.003+08:00

It was another tiring day in the lecture in the camp... but I was so looking forward to the evening.. becoz I'll be meeting the long-lost friend.. Cindy Ong!!~~ haha... actually not long-lost friend lah... we still in contact... but rarely met up lor... so just nice she tonight is available and agreed to meet me...

Haha... I drove all the way to Potong Pasir to meet her... luckily I still remember the road that XiaoXia took when he fetch me to his place for New Year Eve countdown... and yeah... i didnt missed the exit and just nice reached there by 8:30pm...

I was waiting so eagerly in the car and finally she was walking out... when she sit into my car.. i realise that she got slightly skinnier than the last time I saw her... hmmm.. already forget when le.. but it happened in 2008... so not very long... By then I was already very hungry... and since she didnt suggest any nice place nearby to eat.. I decided to go ChompChomp there to eat... and funny lor.. she live nearby but didnt know what is ChompChomp... but she know it is in Serangoon Garden...

She wasnt very hungry at that time... but she still eat with me... We ordered the prawn noodles... Rojak.. Carrot Cake and the most important items... SugarCane water!~ didnt manage to take pics of the food... but at least I remembered to take pics with her to make it the iPhone profile.. and not forgetting to take pics together...

Actually this is the nicest of about 20pics that I tried to take... haha... it may not be one of her best photos... but i like it very much!!~ Yeah!~~

After the dinner.. we went down to a coffeeshop near her blocks and continue our chat there... she still as usual slept inside my car... and especially memorable when I wake her up... it was like 3-4 yrs ago lor... haha.. but so sad that she still smokes now... at least she did went to dentist to clean her teeth... Anyway.. finally resolve her mystery of "Jackpot" thingy... makes me thinks so much.. thot she was really selling jackpots lor... pui... been bluffing me all the while...

Ops.. it getting late now.. and I still need to write the reviews for my course... looking forward on Thurs to go skating with her and with the rest (Xiao Fang/Joven/Patrick) in the evening... She havent confirm yet... but really wish that she'll come... but I have to make sure she dun see "red" on that day... =X

61st ULOG Course

2009-01-05T23:02:00.003+08:00

Today I went back to Kranji Camp III to attend my first logistic course organised by the School of Logistics... so coincidently... my NS unit was at the same place as well... it is great to see all those familiar faces again back in the camp with my unifom on... but something "big" happened to the Signal Platoon... and the environment there was quite tensed... so I didnt have the chance to talk to my ex- Ops Sgt Lee Tong... but then I'll still see them for the next 3 weeks.. so there is always a chance to chat with them...

I was assigned to the course... to be honest... i'm quite afraid of the upcoming appointment that I might be taking after this course... Understand from the course module that it is to prep for S4 or MTO vocations...

I know i'm not ready for all these... knowing that I may get a higher appointment in my current unit... especially recent incident really depletes my confident level to the minimum... i dunno how to face anything now... even for the course... i know i am just crawling my way thru the course...

Zhutou know what is happening to me... she consulted me as much as she could... but still the feelings arent gone yet... guess it will take times to heal... after this blog.. there shall be no more mentioned of their names... perhaps is escaping from reality... perhaps is another way not to think about it and try my very best to get over the feelings for the next 3 weeks.. By then I should and i MUST be ready to face them...

My sch is going to start soon on 13th Jan... my time is gonna get very very tight again with assignments, projects, revisions and then exams.... have to cool down my mind now and prep for the modules... havent even bought the textbooks yet... perhaps doesnt need on the first day...

My knee... already book an appointment with the MO thru the medical centre... easier to get a referral letter to specialist.. and may waive away my consultation fees.. really got to check out for the real reasons behind my knee and not to joke around with it... especially after chatting with those senior officers who are attending the same courses as me... they warned me better get my knee checked up...

It's time to buck up dude!!~

Emotional Day

2009-01-04T16:57:00.003+08:00

Got a very emotional news in the afternoon... I tot i gave up long time ago... but i dunno why i still got emotionalized the whole afternoon... I know I cant stay at home for long.. if not i sure raise my temper on them... so I quickly get out of the house and find a place to go... My very first thoughts: to East Coast Park... only hearing and looking at the wave breaks onto the shore can cool my temper down....

Yeah indeed... got very emotional initially and wanted to tears... but quite alot of ppl there... so I didnt... had a chat with XiaoFang (phonecall) and also my sis Melissa (SMS) to talk things out... it's great to share emotion with friends.... Fortunately/Unfortunately... I w0nt be able to see them for the next 3 weeks... guess I can cool down my emotions before I face them back in the office...

Tempted by XiaoFang... when I passby one of the roller blade store beside the Macdonald.. I was surprised that the rental was only $7 for 2 hours which inclusive the socks and those protection gears... so since time is still early... i decided to rent it for 2 hours and there I go... of coz without the protection gears...

I was whoppling for the first 10-20mins coz it has been quite some time since I last skated... I confirm will regret not to take the protection gear if I fall... but luckily I didnt fall with only some occasions of near misses... hehe... So I started off from Macdonald all the way to bedok jetty and a little bit forward... i saw the new garden that was still in construction during the last time I passby there... so now there is new gallery there... i didnt manage to go up because of the circling slopes... so I just took a pics of it below... nice huh??

I also passby the foodcourt and I stopped myself for a break and have a nice coconut drinks... haha... and I did recall the scene I had with them in BKK... haha... emotional huh... so I quickly finish it up and off I go...

I shouldnt be blading at all actually... when I tried to bend and rest my hand on my knee... i can sense the trembling that my knee is enduring... ha~ luckily there isnt any side effects after that... and even have.. i also wont bother... who else will bother about my knee?? just let them breakoff bah....

That's all for today... now must quickly finish up the Mac meal I bought.. and rush down to Tamp to meet the guys for some Bucking nite....

Bangkok Trip (18 Dec - 21 Dec) continue... ...

2009-01-04T02:05:00.006+08:00

Day 2 (19 Dec 2008)

Poor XiaoMei who has to wake up at 5:30am... coz we agreed to have breakfast by 7am in the morning with zhutou and schnappi... haha.. Kiat took quite sometime and finally manage to drag XiaoMei out of the bed... By then I was already awaken by them already... shag... And we went down on time to the nearby cafe to have the "American" breakfast... it is not that fascinating but still edible... just that XiaoMei found some bugs in the cucumber but she still eat them... yucks!~ lolx...

After the breakfast... we were discussing how should we be going to our first destination Bo-bae Market.. Coz XiaoMei has to go there to pass some goods to one of her father's partner... then one cab driver approached us and mentioned that he can drive us to any destination with only 50bahts... it was consider cheap already... but with another agreement that we need to visit some visitor's place before fetching us to Bo-bae... That guy told us that we need not buy anything but just to walk a few rounds and he will get a stamps for discount in petrol.. and also a piece of gold if he manage to clock enough ppl... Since the time was still early.. we agreed to visit those places first... but before that I mentioned that we must go to the famous 4-head Budhha to pray for a safe trip ahead... I think he brought us to the one outside Continental Hotel and 3 of us (Abi, Kiat & Me) prayed....

After that we went to two different places... firstly the Jewellery shop.. and the price there was super shocking... cant even get anything with the money I exchanged (9000 Bahts)... lolx.. but it was an eye-opener for us bah... the jewelleries there were fantastic... and the next place was those sourvenir shops... which has 4 storeys that sector each level on different type of sourvenirs... from hand-made... to jewelleries... to leather/silks product and food corner... In both shops... we were "entertained" by their salesperson there... after tons and tons of lousy english conversation and some criticising sentences from their mouth... Kiat actually started to get pissed by one of the salesperson... lolx.. and in fact... I was quite unhappy with her criticising words lor...

Not gonna get our day spoiled because of them... and the cab bring us to our destination, Bo-bae. While on the way... we had quite a good chat with him.. and XiaoMei took a pic with him... Anyway... his name is Nikom... and we took his namecards if there is any chance that we going to Bangkok again.. I will approach him again...

It wasnt a good day for Abi... coz she left her goods inside the cab!!!~ She was quite panick and afraid that she couldnt recover back her goods despite our confirmation that the cab driver will come back again the next day morning for us again... Although after that she cool down... I can see that she still feeling quite uncomfortable for the whole day and keep thinking what will happen if Nikom did not appear the next day... But still... we went into the mall and start our shopping spree...

Actually the items there wasnt very fantastic.. quite disappointed but Abi told us that actually that place wasnt for us de... but i think Zhutou got one traditional white shirt over there... We didnt stayed there for long... and after Abi settled her things there, which was to ask that person to come to the hotel to collect the packages the next day morning, we then make our way out of that mall.

Abi remembered that there is a boat quay nearby where we can ride on it and reach our next destination: Platinum Fashion Mall. After 5 mins walk.. we manage to find the quay and the boat came in a few mins.. the cost for each person was only 8 bahts... The boat is actually travelling along a river which has a width that can accomodate 2 boats... and the water is actually splashing outside which luckily blocked by the "blue" plastic... Even I sit at the centre.. i can still feel the water splashing on me... Zzzz... and the water isnt very clean lor...

And so.. we reached the Platinum Mall in the afternoon and started our shopping spree there... it is a 7 storeys of stores that suit our taste... And we shopped till 3 plus before we start eating our lunch... by then.. i already bought 2 bermudas.. 2 shirts and 2 tees... By then we already very hungry.. just take a look at our table:

After that we went back to our Hotel to offload our things and wanted to go to Suan Lam Night Bazaar to have our dinner there... When we went down to the Hotel lobby... another cab driver approached us.. we mentioned that we want to go Suan Lam... but that cab driver told us that there was a traffic jam and very hard to go into the night bazaar... and he said that he can bring us somewhere near the night bazaar to have our dinner there... and is only walking distance to Suan Lam... we thought since it is near... so why not finish our dinner and we walk there... and we boarded that cab... in the end.. we ended up at a "high-end" seafood restaurant which sell their fried rice for 300bahts!!~ which is more than S$10!!! kaoz... we didnt order anything and we just walk off... still thinking that Suan Lam is nearby but it wasnt anywhere in sight...

So while figuring where were we in the map... another cab driver came over and offered his help.. he actually told us that the night bazaar was closed... I didnt really believed him but we still boarded the cab... thinking that he may still bring us to other places to shop for our night... but in the end.. we end up inside another seafood restaurant... the first thing i did there was to ask the waiter over there if the night bazaar was really closed... and surprisingly.. that waiter told me it is still opened!!~ damn idiotic cab driver.... and the seafood restaurant still offer 300bahts for fried rice lor... haiz... so we got so pissed... and walked off... singing that the road was actually quite quiet there... we "lan lan" has to engage another cab driver... and insisted that we only wanted to go Suan Lam Night Bazaar for any price... and he actually quoted us 180bahts!!~

We manage drop the prices to 80/100bahts.. then we board the cab... and the ride to Suan Lum was considered far lor... really got tricked by 2 cab drivers in a night alone... but at least we finally reached the bazaar... and of coz.. had our dinner there.... cheap and nice... hahah... that place didnt sell much clothes.. but they do sell alot of furnitures... i got myself a red/black strip belt and a red/black covers for those cushions in my living room and one in the office...

At the end of the day... When we reached back to the hotel... Abi and Kiat already tire out and only wanted to faster bath and slp for the night... but Zhutou, Schnappi & I got plans after we bathed... we went down to a foot massage shop below our hotel to have our leg massaged... it was the first time I tried.. and really got very uncomfortable with ppl touching my foot... and most of the time... I'll kick whoever tried to meddle with my foot.. but I forced myself to stay calm.. and enjoyed the massage..
Day 3 (20 Dec 2008)

To be continued.... ....

New 320GB Seagate Portable Harddisk

2009-01-04T00:47:00.002+08:00

The weather outside was so great with cold breeze blowing into my window, and I was sitting near the balcony with the fan blowing directly on me. Suddenly got the urge to experience the cool breeze at East Coast Park and I start asking around for companion to the nearby Macdonald, but once I sent out the last SMS, then I realise it was already very late at about eleven in the night. So I simply dropped the idea, knowing that no one will want to come out at this time.

I start digging out what I can do at home and realize that I need to do a "stress" test on the new harddisk I bought from Seagate. The new harddisk has a slightly bigger size of 320GB space compared to the one I bought in 2008 Computer Fair of 160GB for over $100. And guess what is price for the new harddisk?! It's only $88!!!

I got this special deal from Desmond, he has a friend working in Seagate and grabbed the deal for us. But heard from Desmond that he got his one to inter-exchange after he tried to play a video in the harddisk and it simply crashed...

And so.... the test result till now is still successful... the harddisk are still working fine despite downloading over 100GB of data into it and played a small video from it. Think I'm gonna remove the data in it now and place all my pictures in it.

Oh yah... and the new harddisk had a security features that prompt password login before allowing access into the drive... good one to place personal documents into the harddisk... ^_^

Shoe Shopping

2008-12-28T21:45:00.003+08:00

This afternoon I woke up at about 1pm after some chiong-ing of Heroes Season 3 last night... my first thought asked me that I should get myself a new shoes for the upcoming CNY... so I quickly sms the brothers to see if anyone keen to go shoe shopping with me... but in the end.. none was free in the afternoon...

When I about to think that I'll just go do the shopping myself, Patrick called me and say if I want to meet him after his bike lessons later.. Then I faster go prepare and off I go....

The first place I went was the S&K in Lucky Plaza.. bcoz previously I went there with zhutou, desmond and kiat... and I saw a shoes over there very nice... and cheap too... coz the whole shop offering 50% discount!! But I couldnt find the same pair that I saw that day... so regretted that I didnt buy that time... Patrick also found a nice jacket at a affordable price... but dont have his size already... so we both leave the shop in disappointment... >.<

After that, we went to Peninsular Plaza which also have nice and cheap shoes over there... visited most of the stores.. and i found one red strip addidas shoes in one of the shop selling at only $49... that was cheap!~ but then dun have my size too... sianz... So Patrick say wanted to visit the S&K shop in Tamp Mall de... and so we went.. this time by cab which cost me $15 to reach there... we were too tired by then and dozed off in the cab till we reached... but then the same thingy... got the jacket but dun have his size... too bad for him and me too...

But after that when Patrick went for his haircut in JeanYip... I went to shop for my shoes again blindlessly... I stepped in the Converse shop and slowly browse through the shoes they displaying there... BINGO!~ I saw one that has red strips and black background... nice.. and is only $59.90... within my budget... and so after I got my size right... i didnt think twice and just bought it...

Here is the pics of it:

It was another last minute gathering with the poly mates... I often do such kind of last minutes gathering to whoever is free... so this time i was msn-ing Siying at about 2 or 3 plus in the afternoon and was chatting how to settle dinner... and I suggested to eat together and plus the rest of the groups... so at the end of it... we had 7 ppl joining for the lunch...

We met up at 6:30pm in Tamp and initially Siying wanted to eat Ding Tai Feng... but Vivian didnt want to eat that and we finally settled at Sakae Sushi @ Century Square.. and we queued till 8pm before we get our seats... super hungry by then and we quickly grab the sushi to eat... lolx... we chatted alot in the restaurant... from studies to works.. to credit cards and to methods of saving $$... Siying & Lionel had did alot of researches on the best ways on saving $$... no wonder they makes such a good couple... lolx...

Bangkok Trip (18 Dec - 21 Dec)

2008-12-23T21:35:00.004+08:00

It was actually quite a rush decision for the Bangkok trip with Abi, Kiat and Zhutou.. and we quickly go reserve the air tickets and the hotel room from one of the agency in Peninsular Plaza... Total we were chraged $480 just for the trip only... but we manage to secure a 3-4 star hotel for 4 days 3 nights and the SwissAir airline that transit at Bangkok... SwissAir airline is not a budget airline and Kiat told me that budget airline is actually more uncomfortable than this...

Day 1 (18 Dec 2008)

It was on a thursday and most of us are working on that day... I actually packed my bag the night before and just need to put all my necessories only... so on that day... we went back home individually and agreed to meet up in Changi Airport Terminal 1 at 7.30pm and no one allowed to be late.... and very nice that everyone is on time and take turns to check-in at the counters....

There we are inside the SwissAir plane being the 'male' models for iPhone... that was only the 2nd day that I bought it... so i didnt really update the version correctly... that day abi still laugh at me for not updating the version... Zzzz..

The plane ride was only less than 2 hours and I didnt manage to finish my movie "Hell Boy 2" yet and the movie was paused for landing... sianz.. luckily Kiat got those movies and will send it to be once we go back to Singapore...

I think it was about 11plus in the night when we reached Bangkok's airport... Zhutou was the first to be cleared from the custom and I was the 2nd... and luckily i was the second.. coz i manage to catch zhutou walking towards to the wrong direction... All of them got the wrong idea to get their lagguage at Gate 6 where it was damn far from the actual collection point... But still... we manage to get our bags and there go our frist experience in Bkk...

We met up with the agent who suppose to bring us to our hotel right outside the gate 6... and to our expectation... they really got Abi's name wrongly and written it as XUN YU... lolx... I noticed the helpless & disappointed face of her... but at least we found the agent... When we stepped out of the airport... the weather was quite cooling... but the air was really quite polluted and there was some smelly stench floating around... We quickly board the van that fetching us with 2 other visitors and it was about 3omins ride to our hotel named ECOTEL

Our room was just side by side which is 508 & 510... Me, Abi and Kiat shared room 510 while Zhutou and Wei Zhong (Zhutou's BF) shared room 508... It was already near 1am and we still need to go to the nearby 7-eleven to get chewing gums... bottled water.... shampoo and body foam...

By the time we went to bed and sleep.. it was about 2am and we got to wake up at 6plus in the morning to get ready for our shopping and exploration spree... poor abi who has to wake up earlier than both of us... It wasnt a very good night sleep as the air-con actually made some irritating noise which disturbed me and kiat... but not that abi who is so deeply in her sleep...

Day 2 (19 Dec 2008)
To be continued... ....

Monday TopOne KTV with A, C, H & W

2008-12-23T20:56:00.003+08:00

It was another round of gathering with Fiesta gamings friends on Monday evening after work. This time round there is additional friend who named as 'A'...

Lolx... I'm also slightly confused with all the alphabets while typing this blog. To clarify that these alphabets are just a nickname for us to identify each other during the games... i was represented as alphabet 'B'... C is Colyn aka CalCal who is a professional healer in Fiesta.. W aka Whokie who is a powerful mage (same as me =pP)... H is HHZ aka Zhutou who is another pro healer.. and A is Whokie's sister who joined Fiesta when we are at very very high level... and in the Fiesta.. they are matching me (aka B) with A.. and always asked me to go assist her to up level fast...

Haha.. that is some small introduction with the gaming buddies... and we met up for some karaoke session... It was the first time that we meet up with 'A'... she looks quite similiar to her brother Whokie but look slightly more pleasant... and indeed.. her voice also very nice... haha.. I didnt manage to open up my voice that day.. so I actually sang quite poorly yesterday... hope I dun scare her away bah.. =ppp

We sang till quite late yesterday and actually reached home at about 12am... so damn tired and only manage to sleep at 1am... luckily I today got to go Bedok Exchange.. and i couldnt wake up until 8.30am... so damn late... hehe...

3G iPhone 8GB

2008-12-17T20:55:00.003+08:00

At last, finally got my own iPhone today... it came slightly after i finished my blog this afternoon at about 4pm... i was so excited that it came and i quickly sign the delivery and open it up and play with it...

I wanted to get some accessories for my iPhone, I asked zhutou to acc me to buy. She agreed, but it must be a rush one as she need to attend grandma's bday dinner at home by 7pm.. And so when we reached Wheellocks' epicenter, I quickly choose one normal black skin and also the screen protector... but after that realise that the first skin doesnt fit the iPhone. The skin was actually meant for 2G iTouch which is much thinner in size. We were already on the way to the train station and no choice we had to head back to the epicentre and do a quick exchange, luckily it is still valid for exchange and at then.. i saw the nice red/black skin from Belkin with the price as:

a) iWorld iPhone 3G eFilm screen protector - $19.00

b) Belkin iPhone 3G Silicone slv w/le blk/red - $29.00

Anyway... now i am anxiously waiting for my iPhone to arrive... should be soon le.. the delivery time was suppose to be 2:30pm to 5:30pm... so.... WHERE IS MY IPHONE?

Adventure to Qian Hu Fish Farm

2008-12-14T16:58:00.003+08:00

We were suppose to go to the Fish Farm at about 3:30pm after fetching Mimo to her church nearby, but Zhutou was stuck on her facebook again and didn't have the intention to leave. And so we drag and drag until about 5pm when we left Annie's place.

It was about 5:30pm when we reached the Fish Farm, and we only explored the whole farm for 15-20mins. Then we sat down near the LongKang fishing bench, taking pics and also watching those kids having their fun "scooping" those small fishes out. We were actually waiting for XiaoMei to reach before we went for our Fish Therapy.

XiaoMei reached at about 5:50pm and we quickly registered for the therapy sessions @ $10 for the first 30mins. But then XiaoXia did not joined us and we didnt know why.. is it becuase Mimo didnt join us? No ones know and we did not question him too much. But then since he didnt go into the water, he shall be our photographer... haha.. =pp

It was a very good experience on the Fish Therapy. It was kinda ticklish when the fish started to gather around our feet and start 'eating" our dead skin. I was not very used for this kind of ticklish and I actually keep kicking the fishes away, until about 5 minutes later... then I finally somehow got used to the ticklish feelings and slowly started to enjoy the sensations. We were actually discussing about our Bangkok trips, until we realise that there were so many fishes surrounding all our legs. XiaoMei also slowly got used to it and before that, she was kicking the fishes like nobody business... =pp

And after 15mins later, I suggested to go try for the "bigger sensations for bigger fishes".. lolx.. only Zhutou dare to put her whole feet down and I took quite a while to get used to it. You can actually feel the fishes mouth feeding on ur dead skin lor... and Schnappi in the end did not get used to it and went back to the smaller fishes enjoying his smaller sensation. We stayed there for quite long, and actually exceeded the 30mins, but we just sit there, thinking that someone will come and tell us to leave. But in the end, coz we have to go fetch Mimo in Choa Chu Kang, we left with our feet "cleaned".

At that time it was about 7pm already and all of us are very hungry. As planned, we went down to ChompChomp for dinner. Over there, we secured a 4 person seats but we have 6 ppl there, and we simply exchanged our seats with another group who has 3 ppl on a 6 person table. There, we ordered Stingrays, chicken wings, Hao(1) Qian(1), Satays and many many other foods, and of coz, not forgetting the "gigantic" cups of sugarcane. Zhutou only ordered 3 and those couples shared one and I shared with XiaoMei, but she didnt drink and eat much that day coz of gastric pain, perhaps just now too hungry and suddenly eat so much at a go.

XiaoMei blur blur go buy TigerBalm instead of 风油.. (-_-) and luckily she managed to exchange it at about the same price... We also went to the yougurt store to look for the super babe that was described by Kiat... but we were quite disappointed and my personal grades... 70% only due to her size and abit wierd lookings. still not that 100% perfect lor...

The time was still early and we went to the IceRoom to have some desserts. I ordered the chocolate m***** even though my stomach was filled to the rim already... and we stayed there for chitchats for an hour and so until it was too warm already to stay and we left

And end of the day, they still thinks that it was still early.. and someone mentioned to play mahjong... lolx.. and in the end we played for 2 rounds till 4am... Zzzz... tired.... totally drenched... Time to work abit on the Project X now... ^_^

House-Visiting to Annie's Place

2008-12-14T16:33:00.003+08:00

It was ten in the Saturday morning, I got myself off the bed to wash up and get prepared to school. It was kind of tired only to know that I slept only at 2am last night. But today have to meet up with Zhutou and Mimo in school to register for our next semester course, so I cannot afford to be late. While brushing my teeth, I suddenly recalled I left Duncan's referral letter in the office. I suppose to help him to register for the next semester modules on his behalf, but need the letter as prove.

Thought for awhile, I realise my house got a printer and also email access to the SingTel's account, so I just login and also printed out the referral letter. Lucky me that I didn't archive to other folders in my lappy. So things are smooth all the way to school and also for the registerations. Zhutou, Mimo and Duncan decided to drop Leadership and Management for this semester, hinting me that I'll need to look for new project group for that modules.

After which, I joined they all to Annie's place in Jurong for house-visiting. Been quite long since I last seen Annie in the hospital when she gave birth to her 2nd baby girl, Rei-an. Annie was actually quite surprised to see me as she did not expect me, I'm always a surprise visitors. ^_^ We also shared a small gifts b/w 5 of us on $12 each for Chicken Essence and Bird Nests.

Rei-an actually grew quite alot from a tiny girl to a big one. Erm.. and actually I was not confident that I could carry her on my arms, but I did tired for awhile when she was asleep. I also did chat alot with Annie and updated her with lots of things happened in SingTel. Anyway she'll be back in Jan and soon I'll have a irritating neighbour again... should I feel happy or sad?

Fateful & unFateful Night

2008-12-13T01:19:00.003+08:00

Let's talk about the "unFateful" night of mine... actually today I went home early... to ask daddy to go down to Hello! shop to get the 3G iPhone... then I suggested to go Comcentre as I expect the queue there to be lesser... but in the end we waited for abt 30mins even though we are the next in queue... dunno where goes wrong.. but I thought renewal contract should be faster?! >.<

okz.. that the first part... and when everything process finish... the salesperson asked to hold-on and she'll get the 3G 8GB iPhone out... and when I saw her carrying out the iPhone box out.. i was so excited... but the expression from the staff tells me otherwise.... and she straight away break out the bad news...

"Sorry, our last piece of 8GB has been taken. What I have here is 16GB, do you want? or if you have any phone to trade-in in order to drop the price?"

I thought for awhile... dun really feel like getting the 16GB de... so I just give it a go and went off in disappointment... then daddy say tml go to tamp outlets there see got anot lor... I'm anything.. and then off we go to the car... =(((

Then mum call up 2nd bro to check if he needs a ride home.. and he said yes.. so we have to go to ChinaTown to his office... He is working together with my eldest cousin in our generation... which is our "da jie" aka Swee Li Jie... hope i spell her name correctly... When reached there... I just thinking to drop-by her office and take a look... since I didnt went there before...

So when I went inside.. I saw 2nd bro... Swee Li Jie... and some of their colleagues.. and there is another lady named Irene was also there to discuss some Travel issues with swee li jie... and after being introduced.. then I know she was working in a Travel Agency... My first reaction was... wao lao... I was late for a day...

Last few days Xiaomei, Zhutou, Kiat and Me was discussing about travelling to Bintan or Bangkok... and just in the afternoon we confirmed on Bangkok with our initial deposits by Kiat to the agency (PINNACLE TRAVEL SERVICES PTE LTD) already... $480 for a 4D3N leaving on thursday evening 9:2opm and returning on Sunday evening @ 4:30pm... but I forget what Hotel already.. =ppp

Then this Irene was so nice.. and she chatted with me for the next 2 hrs (only realised when we stopped the conversation)... she started off telling me what's the do & don'ts when we reached Bangkok... and then slowly tell me where to shop and do what is nice... and in the end... she already draw up a ncie scheduled plans, enough for me to spent the 4 days there fruitfully~ lolx.. that's was what I meant by "Fateful" night... haha.. Thanks to Irene very much and I've macham travelled to Bangkok already... haha.. next time travel again confirm look for her... and she told me next time I travel again.. confirm will give me the best price and best schedules for me... ^_^... i do like to have a personalized agents... =ppp Just in case I forget or lost her details:

Boutique Holidays Pte Ltd
Irene Heng
(90054932)

And most importantly, as of the situation over in Thailand... they advised me to get a Travel insurance just in case the situation turns bad and I'm still able to get some $$ back... hmm.. would they still accept insurance requests to countries that are not stable yet? Just wait for my bro to recommend me bah... ^_^

Back home.. I tried to surf online.. and complaint abit on the "out-of-stock" iPhone to XiaoXia.. and he recommended me to order one online instead... and I did!! and I ordered it at $538 which is $30 cheaper due to promotion compared to buying directly from Hello! shops.... lolx.. and the delivery will be to my office on this coming Wednesday 2:30-5:30pm... can't wait for it to come!!!

Birthday Celebration for Joven

2008-12-08T23:12:00.002+08:00

Erm.. it was only organised yesterday... quite last minute as I didnt really have time to plan for him.. I've tried my best to ask and luckily most of the guys can make it except Jinhao... then at the girls part... too last minute and none of them can make it...

So the troubles are going where and doing what... initially my plan was just to come over to my place to have a small mahjong... plus some gamblings and games as my house was empty... however, further dicussions with patrick... we decided to go for ktv... lolx.. then i suggested them to go TopOne Ktv as the environment there is nicer and cheaper... it is just $20++ rather than Kbox which cost more than that....

Next is the birthday cake.. we bought it a small cheese cake from Four Leaves inside Bugis Parco...

After the singing at about 6pm.. we didnt proceed to my place for party.. but rather we go to nearby for steamboat dinner... We settled down at 天天火锅 and eat till our stomach burst...

Standard Chartered Marathon Pack

2008-12-04T21:25:00.005+08:00

It was a very shag day today... phew... I went down to Expo Hall 5 to collect my marathon pack... Today was the first day.. and I didnt expect alot of people there... but things always happened unexpectedly... On the way to the hall, I saw Eileen (my pri sch mates) walking passed me to the train station... we greeted each other.. and then she warned me that she queued for 45 mins...

Wah... then when i almost reached the hall 5.. i already see the long queue outside and i just queued... lolx.. and just nice it is the 42km queue... the outside queue was quite fast.. as they open up the way batch by batch into the inner queue...

The tough one is inside lor.. wao lao.. i saw dunno how many zigzags before reaching the counters... if not wrong... there are about 20 or more zigzags... lolx.. it was the first stage to go thru before running 42km... if cannot go thru this.. forget abt the run manz...

Finally... the last few turns are the fastest... then boom.. it's my turn... and i got my packs in a few minutes only... tough ones are actually those runners where they have to run around looking for the bags and especially the tags among 500,000 tags... good jobs to them... oh yah.. and then the counter girl told me that afternoon queue was even more longer.. where someone told her that he waited for 2 hours... so my 1 hours queueing was nothing... ^_^

Took some pics of the goodies they have inside:

Typical Marathon Bag

My running number, but not use.. i'm not going to run this time... (^_^)

The running attire... kaoz.. still the same as last year.. why cant they innovate abit more?
New stuff.. but handband from Audi.. isnt them a manufacturer of car??

Leftlets.. Guides... Supplements.. and Deep Heating Rub... typical stuffs from such events.

And damn unlucky... wanted to get myself one Subway Bread but when i reached the store... it was closed!~ haiz.. then no choice.. just endure the hunger and go home on the way to eat le...

Bday Celebration for Qi's 23rd years old

2008-12-01T21:21:00.004+08:00

I sat on the tables with the girls... coz I know BeeKhim and AiFang... So the pic below was the feast that we had on that day... I think my table only manage to complete about 20plus dishes... but another table actually cleared more than 30 dishes... lolx...

After the meal... those that got events went off and then the rest all meet up at Tamp Mall to catch a movie... If not wrong.. it should be the Chihuahua movie we watched on that day... and although quite full on that day... but I still get myself a cup of cupcorns to eat inside... my fav leh... didnt eat for quite sometime le... but next time I shall ask that person not to put any salt inside.. kinda sick when eating the salty part... and the movie was fun...

We ended our day after a cool chillout at the Starbucks and I drank my fav Java Chip... got a nice chat with the rest.. and slowly proceed our way back home individually......

Consecutive 4 days of Mahjong

2008-12-01T20:23:00.002+08:00

Last week was a very tough week... have been playing mahjong for 4 days... plus the basketball on saturday morning really tire me out.. My first game started on Thursday evening after the bowling competition with Ericsson, Kiat didnt have enough "legs" to play and he jioed me... And that Zhutou last minute didnt come... or else she can backup me... and of coz.. to share my losts on that day... hahaha... =ppp anyway.. it is just $9... actually that is not why i want her to come over lah... is just that the place is at Yishun wor.. at least she can acc me go back to east area together.. =pp

Then on Friday... I went to TopOne Kbox with zhutou after work.. coz it's a Friday Nite... didnt really want to go home so early... phew.. 2 person singing is kinda tough but exciting... ^_^ how about mahjong?? oh!~ that happened when I reached home about 11plus... i saw da bro.. da sao and their friend sitting in the living room eating the sweet soup that my mum cooked in the afternoon... they didnt look good and I didnt bother much... until when I call my dad to check where they are... coz I need to use the car to look for Bee Khim to pass her the earpiece... then my dad said that da bro suppose to be playing mahjong.. and I realise they short of one person and then not enough leg... so i agreed to play with them after I meet up with Bee Khim... so... that was the 2nd day of mahjong... but I only played for one wind... and mum played for the other 3 winds... =((( waited for the whole nite leh...

Then here comes saturday.. morning I met up with the guys to play bball... that day we have Joven, Junyi, Patrick and me.. just nice we can play 2v2.. although I lost quite a few games... but I did have fun with the guys... and then in the afternoon.. as planned.. me.. zhutou and peiching met up at Angeline's place to play mahjong... ^_^ me and zhutou reached there slightly early to play Wii... and I got Turkey on the bowling game lor... haha... then Peiching reached slightly later after 3pm... then we start our game with Angeline's black mahjong for 2 full rounds... and hmm.. I think I was quite frustrated with the tiles and lost the games... =((( maybe that's my temper bah... hehe...

Then finally on Sunday... actually wanted to go reservior do some running... to check if my knee has recovered.. but I was too tired and wanted to sleep till I shiok de... but in the end was awakened by Xiaomei's SMSes when she trying to confirmed the mahjong game later in the afternoon... thinking about it... didnt chat with her for quite sometime le... then after a few SMSes... I cant sleep already.. so I wake up and play abit facebook until it's about time already... then I see the weather raining already.. and so I offered to fetch Zhutou, Snoopy and Xiaomei to my place... and out game started about 4pm... ^_^ although I lost in mahjong for 3 consecutive days... it was the first time I won.. but i didnt win happily.. coz the winnings comes from Xiaomei... haiz.. she's a newbie.. and yet I win her so much.. so paiseh.. then I offered to treat her the supper we had at 85 market.. that was the first time Snoopy been to 85 market at bedok.. and i think he had a good meal... ^_^

Without realising... it was already past midnight and only realise it when I fetching the girls back... and I quickly bath and fall asleep on the bed when i lied on it..

Company Event with Ericsson

2008-11-28T00:16:00.003+08:00

Today went for a company event organized by Ericsson over at Yishun Safra... I was not suppose to go but Angeline Wong approached me to take over her place.. And Choon Kiat is taking over Sylvia's position.. It was a bowling competition between the mixture combination of 4-5 per team from SingTel and Ericsson...

We reached there at about 3:30pm and waited for quite sometime for the event to start... my team consist of 3 from SingTel (Max, Falisha & Me) and 2 from Ericsson (Derrick & Malay Guy).. luckily i know Max and Falisha.. but not for Choon Kiat... haha.. he totally dunno anyone.. but his team got a girl name as Kimberly... believe that she helped on *SEND service... not a bad girl lor...

And then suddenly... they switched off the lights.. and everything turned illuminous... which they set-up the ultraviolet ray and makes everything glow-in-the-dark... CHIO!~

It has been quite some time since I last touch the bowling ball.... so I didnt really bowl well in the first 2 rounds until the last round... i think i managed to take 3 strikes and a few spares... using a 13 pound ball instead of the first 2 rounds using a 8 pound ball..

I also take a quick snap at my shoes... haha.. PUMA with a different shoe laces pattern... ^_^

And one last thingy... the glow-in-the-dark event.. only activate during company event... normal bowling days will not activate de... hehe...

Trip to Johor

2008-11-26T22:54:00.005+08:00

It was one of the nicest weekend I had last week... had a tiring yet fun weekend with my friends in SingTel on last Saturday and also a good gathering with my Sec sch buddies on Sunday...

Together with Xiao Mei, Zhutou, Schnappi, Mimo, XiaoXia, SiJia, Alex (SiJia's Hubby), Peiching, Vincent and Chai Hwee.. we planned to have a trip down to Johor for a nice outing and then a seafood dinner at 大马花园... Initially there were many other different plans like prawn fishing... shopping.. etc... and all of us agreed to gather at Kranji MRT to take a bus down to the causeway checkpoint..

So in the morning, I went down to tampines to meet XiaoMei to take bus.. i think is 969 bah... down to Yishun MRT... she asked vincent and know that it is a faster way from east to north... even faster than taking train... however.. i miscalculated the timing and the bus driver drove like F1.. (he must have gone to watch F1 race in Sep this year)... fast till only takes 15 mins to reach tamp... so I reached tamp at 8:30am instead of 9am... so I went to had a light breakfast myself before coming out to meet XiaoMei...

Finally she reached... fully exhausted and straight away fall asleep when we sat down... after that then realise that she went clubbing last night and only slept for a few hours... so i didnt bother her too much.. but can know that she wasnt really quite comfortable with such a tight seats... but she still slpt the whole trip... for me... as usual lor.. although tired but i kept myself awake so that we both will not miss the stops and late for the gathering...

And so.. our journey starts....

We boarded the bus 170 right outside the MRT station... all of us managed to get a seats and we head towards the checkpoints... Over at the checkpoint, that was my first time seeing such an "advance" queue... it was at the most left corner of the entry... just scan the passport and imprint the fingerprints... then we can cross the Singapore checkpoints!~ lolx.. that was super fast...

Then we went down to the bus stops... and while waiting for the bus to come again... Abi suggested to take one of her artistic pictures:

And indeed the result came out quite excellent... however.. we didnt manage to board the bus.. and we all agreed to walk over the bridge to the Malaysia checkpoint... we walked for about 10-20 mins and we reached one of our most agonising part of our journey...

It was damn crowded and there was not much vandilation or any order of the queue inside the checkpoint... wao lao.. many ppl tried to squeeze through us and cut our queue... and our dear Zhutou, who is an typical Aries... could not stand it and keep on complaining and complaining... hehe.. after 1 hour of suffering.. all of us went thru the custom with a very sticky body...

And Zhutou getting high already... start to take pictures with everyone again:

Once we passby the custom... we followed peiching and vincent along the street and met up with Chai Hwee... who had already cross the border with so much ease (he's a malaysian).. no wonder lah... hahah... and we settled our lunch over at a roasted store:

After the lunch... we separated into 3 different cabs (RM18 each) to go to the newly opened Jusco, which is one of the largest shopping complex in Johor... since we did not planned to do any shopping there... there is left only movie-ing or kbox-ing in Jusco.. and we struggled alot if we should watch movie or sing kbox... and as usual.. we took photos again...

Outside the cinema

Outside the RedBox (Kbox)

In the end.. we chosen the kbox as the movie quite hard to choose coz we dont have any movie that we can watch together... see how big is the 11 person KTV room.. and there is a toilet inside the room!~ Even best is the price is only RM30++ for each person... but we requested Chai Hwee to apply for their membership as they served members only... super ridiculous lor... force ppl to sign for their membership...

Our KTV session ended at about 7pm.. at that point of time.. my throat already sore le lor... 2nd KTV session of the week... haha.. then mimo say she wanted to buy some "special" sweets" and zhutou went to shop for her sport shoes... when on the way to the supermart.... xiaomei say she smell her fav food.. which is the 茶叶蛋.. and i tried to smell.. and really got wor.. so i followed her to checkout which store selling it... and finally I saw that shop straight ahead of us selling.. and she was quite happy to be able to eat it... I also bought one for myself.. and it has been a very long time since i last eat the 茶叶蛋 already...

After mimo and zhutou done with their shopping... although none of them managed to buy what they want... (-_-) we went out to catch another 3 cabs down to our last destination... 大马花园

I think we ordered quite alot of seafoods... got 麦片crayfish... stingray... chilli sotong... chilli crabs.. kang kong... garlic xiao mai... it was a sumptous seafood dinner!~ At this point of time.. our dear xiao mei looked super damn shag already... not enough sleep plus out for one whole day le... only got one words to discribe her... "Cui" liao... =X

And we came back to Singapore at about 10-11 plus already... i also "cui" already.. so me.. xiaomei.. zhutou and schnappi walked out to take a cab instead... and yah!~ I dropped my ATM card in the cab... luckily schnappi saw it and pass it to Xiaomei... ^_^ lucky me!~

Tearings are tiring

2008-11-25T00:08:00.003+08:00

It was a very very sad night for me... I was tearing and tearing... one after another... and that makes me damn tired now =...((((

Lolx.. it was not bad things that are happening to me... it was just the chinese series that i'm watching:

轉角*遇到愛

It was a story about one lovely couple, a borned rich Princess with a poor "oyster pancake" cook, but with a great dream of being a artiste... their stories begin when the Princess went to look for him to teach him how to cook taiwan's snack which is the "oyster pancake" and slowly.. due to great deal of coincidence.. they met up and fall in love together...

Initially I didnt teared much.. I'm so touched with their romantic-ness and almost tearing already.. but both of them always end up quarrelling and shouting at one another... slowly.. they both enjoyed it so much and it happened almost everytime...

Qin Lang was the guy and because of his lack of confident... he protected his pride by going against Xin Lei... and Xin Lei being a spoiled princess... she never give in to Qin Lang... and their stories slowly built up..

Until one day, when Xin Lei had to leave due to untold reasons... that was the part that i'm watching tonight... it was damn damn sad lor... i teared and teared and teared...

Zzzz.. Looking at the time so late already.. i decided to stop for the night.. hopefully things will get better between both of them...

TopOne KTV Session

2008-11-23T00:29:00.004+08:00

Sited along North Bridge Rd, which is opposite of Bugis Junction, there is one ktv lounge called TopOne. It was a singing place that, what I heard, has 4 different themes for different level...

It was on 19 Nov 08 (Wed) evening, Me and Zhutou met up with CalCal and Whokie for a karaoke session over at TopOne. Both of them was our Fiesta gaming friends whom always party up together to hunt in the past. But I had stopped the game ever since I started my studies... which I promised myself no gamings anymore until I complete my studies... Coz if I start any new games now.. I'll may be out of control and neglected my studies...

So on that night... it was my first time visiting this TopOne, but however wasnt my first time hearing this karaoake place.. think got once is from XiaoXia... the price over there was slightly cheaper than KBox and the songs were recently updated... it might somehow be my favourite spot in the future... ^_^

If i'm not wrong, that night the theme that we entered should be belongs to CHINA... lolx.. or Chinese... not quite sure lah.. see the picture will know already...

Whokie, CalCal, Zhutou, Me

Our dinner for the night... got 2 flavour: TomYam or SukiYaki

Looks nice.. but taste bad... >.<
"China" or "Chinese" Theme

Dinner with Bee Khim

2008-11-23T00:11:00.003+08:00

It was since after i graduate from my secondary school life, I dont recall ever meeting her up since then. And finally got the chance to see her again after so long... and she was my very first "puppy" love I had during sec sch... lolx.. those times were fun... but it was nv meant to be a lasting one...

It was the tuesday night when i met up with her and went to Heeren Jack's place for a nice "steaky" dinner... During the dinner.. we chat alot and alot about our current lifes and how has it been going.... and even mentioned some of our past...

However, sad to say.... my first comment about her was: "What have you done to your hair!~" lolx.. i'm used to her long pony-tailed hair that she had during secondary school.. and I was quite stunned and almost cant recognise her....

Our plan was to shop around and get some idea for Qi's present for his bday that was coming up on Sunday.. At the end of the window shopping.. we managed to thought of four ideas for Qi's present but I'm not sure if I should share the present with them... so I suggested that we keep the idea first and I had to check with the rest of the brothers to see if they are keen to share for a present...

On our trip back home, we talked about her older sister, Bee Kiat, whom I knew slightly about this girl during Polytechnics period... Bee khim told me quite alot about her sister.. that her sister had changed quite alot after she got to know her current fiance... and neglecting the family.

Love indeed can change a person... but however in her case... it wasnt that fortunate...
