25th Aug, Sat




saturday was simple night at central @ clarke quay..2nd time there and still find the place so-so..nothing to shop at all, but a rather good place for food! had dinner @ this "Da Pai Dang" and the wan ton noodles are really yummy! followed by kobe mini donuts and ice-cream~ let the pics do the talking now..too lazy to blog much =)


traffic was light, so I took a picture of us stopping at a traffic light! we invited some stares from our neighbours at the traffic light due to the FLASH. dangerous but dun care wahaha.
we rode around the private estate at kembangan, (very bo liao but cos we'd nothing to do) before meeting fabian & elton at simpang (again for the 20th time in this month). it was sort of a last dinner before fabian go on his iraq trip with the navy for 4 months. wish him all the best =D



Today


dinner today was with jess, dear is on duty again today, and lucky i have her to have dinner with me..i'm so poor thing heehee. we went hougang mall for dinner/snack,did some shopping and ntuc & sasa. a very simple night but i enjoyed the peace & shopping fun! balala.

met my 4 limited at marina square's kenny rogers after work, and dear came to join us shortly after that..we bought jialing a 60GB creative zen hor! =D costs 3 of us like 390 bucks..=X well but we have promised that we'll give each other a more expensive present for 21st birthday, so just once! =)

we had a great meal, jialing's treat LOL~ then decided to find a spot outside esplanade to cut her birthday cake..the candles werent lit cos the wind was simply toooo strong!


it was a really happy night, me, jialing, jiangping, peirong & sean simply sat at the steps outside esplanade and chatted for 3 solid hours! a simple yet heart-warming night..it's been like yrs since we had the time to just catch up with each other like this. i can really be myself being with them :)

we rant about life,army,relationships and work..and it's really sad that we can no longer spend as much time together like how we did in secondary school. those were really carefree & simple days, where all of us agreed that we can be so happy with a $50 note in our wallets, and it would last us like almost a week in those days. things are very different now as we grow up, we spend more, demand better things in life. i can spend like $50-$100 in a day now. we can just waste time away in those june/december holidays, but we can no longer do so now as all of us started work with greater commitments..sigh! it's really GREAT to be young, like 15-18 yrs old..those were the happiest days :) agreed???

DECISIONS AND LIES ARE ALL THE THINGS WE MAKE/TELL TO OURSELVES EVERYDAY
we decide whether to wake up 2 mins or 3 mins later each morning just to catch some sleep that we've lost in the previous day, we decide what to have for lunch and tea break, whether to send out this particular e-mail, whether this particular sentence that we type will offend the receiving end, whether to drag this task to the following day.
we lie to ourselves that this is the best choice/path that we take, that it's okay to tip the scales a little cos everyone else has flabby arms like we do, that no one will spot the spare tyre in us, that we're leading a contented life and no one can see the tears inside us.
is this the life we really want? the pace is too fast, too tired to slow down and appreciate the little moments in life..
FUCKING BORING CAN!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JIALING!
to sum up the past 2 weeks..
Aug 20th, Monday


took MC today cos of a very bad sore throat that has been bugging me since national day. It was still ok during the day, but not AT ALL in the night! my throat can feel so dry that I had to wake up every few hours to drink water, den do back to sleep..haven been sleepin well since then..woods, pi pa gao and even the doc's lozenges that I took since last thurs doesnt work, so i had to see another doc again, hoping that the other doc will give me some antibiotics this time. damn my family doctor who said that I didnt need it and i spent like 30 bucks seeing him last thurs which did not cure me AT ALL. i really pray that these antibiotics will cure me once and for all.. i have stopped eating any heaty, deep fried or spicy food.. just a ktv session 2 days ago. heehee.


Aug 19th, Sun

reached home abt 9.47am in the morning, after a long bus ride from bukit panjang to bedok.. damn shagged. slept until 3pm in the noon and chionged sassy girl again with dear.. tis will continue to give me dark rings. dark rings exchange for saturday fun~ tired!




Aug 18th, Sat


we started our day by bringing dear's bike to the bike shop, as water was leaking from his bike..i duno what actually causes the pipe inside his bike to burst and water leaking though, but we were actually quite disappointed for his 5 mths 1st hand bike to spoil this fast. lucky was still under warranty..so it was the first time without transport for both of us since Mar 2nd! he was feeling damn sad n paralysed without his bike..lol. time to tap the ezlink again for the week! went to jialing's optic shop to prescribe a pair of new specs for sean, had to support this fresh optometry grad friend of mine, else she'll nag non-stop again that even Jasper went her shop to support her and i did not. LOL. feels SO DAMN weird having my best friend checking sean's eyesight..LOL duno zun or not. =X we spent like 2 hrs in her shop, cos she took really DAMN long to check sean's eyes, 1 by 1 very slowly and carefullyyyy.
was really fun standing in the room observing how she examines his eyesight, getting some optometry knowlege here and there, and taking some pics to self-entertain. bahaha. made the both of them buay tahan me thru out the whole session lol. this set of lenses really fascinates me alot inside the boring refraction room! i tried on many lenses and made my head felt so giddy. teeheeeee.




spent sometime to choose his frames, and he finally got the 1st one, the silver frame which is something different from what he had previously. I seriously thought that the 3rd one looked better on him, but he insisted that "now he is officer must look different, cannot have black frames". OKAY. Balala.


bought some "Yummy Donuts" for snacks before dinner, and attention ppl! it's really not worth a single cent! the donuts are darn fucking small for $1.20, and it tastes really just so-so. i'd rather queue at Donuts Factory, or buy Krispy Kremes! =D

Me and dear then went TM to shop arnd to meet Jasper, while waiting for Junye & Sharon to come and fetch us to Ryan's hse. Tonight's gonna be a long night as Ryan's hse for mahjong, games and movies! weeee! so there's me, sean, junye, sharon, jasper, qinkai & elton at ryan's hse with cynthia. computer games, mahjong session and movies going on.. love this kinda activities at night :) we sorta movie-marathoned, watched 4 movies (the terminal, eurotrip, hk horror movie "xiao mu chu" & Apocalypto by mel gibson) straight thru out the night frm 10pm to 4am..balala. i like going ryan's hse in such big groups, cos we can really enjoy n make noise to the max without any restrictions!! :)

Aug 17th, Fri

work was as usual, and the only thing that cheers me up is that Emily is back from maternity leave after 3 long months, and weekend is here! Had a ktv session with my secondary sch seniors, sean and his 2e2 classmates - angie, heather, khasrul, xueyang, jiajue, elton, shengchao. i was very happy that angie actually called me out for ktv :)

Aug 16th, Thurs





met up with the girls for our weekly dinner, shopped with jessamine at Carrefour for like almost 30mins, wanting to buy every single snack/biscuit/chocolate we see, in the end went home empty handed convincing ourselves that we need a diet and that we do not need so much snacks. Had ice-cream at Ben & Jerry's! =X


Aug 12th, Sun

a day to slack at home, chionged 4 episodes of Sassy Girl - Choon Hyang with dear in the noon, den went to catch "secret" at ps in the evening. have longed read abt the "twist" in the show! ok i mus say it was pretty good for jay's 1st attempt, i'm his hard core fan but mus be fair yea. the directing & story line was pretty good. love the parts where jay played the piano in a ultra super speed to get back to 1979, and the interaction between jay n anthony wong! it really touched me. heehee. some lovely pics to share:








the famous lake-side kong ba bao we had. this is a fake bao~



the real very small kong ba bao with a very thin piece of kong Ba at $2.

Aug 11th, Sat


went sentosa with elton, ryan, fabian & sean.. really sun-tanned the whole afternoon and i'm pretty tanned at the back now! bahaha~ not many pics of me cos i'm VERY FAT now ok. went siloso beach to tan, den tanjong beach to meet up with ryan's friends. Keith brought his dog along, and i realised that there are more dogs than humans swimming in the water. guess tanjong beach is a more high-end beach wahaha.. look at the size of his HUGE dog "wo wo". it's almost reaching my waist..



first time taking train into sentosa..duno what they're so into..





our dinner at simpang! elton's recommendation. tastes not bad but quite expensive though for coffee shop.. dear's steak costs $12.90.. =X


again, we slacked at elton's hse for like 3,4 hours before making our way to bukit timah to feed monkeys. our recent craze to see monkeys dashing down from trees to snatch peanuts from us. LOL~

bababababa that ends the first 3 weeks of august!

it's rare that i rant in my blog, and if i do, then you mus be really fucking irritating. kinda sick of questions like, "do i have plans to study", and "when will you quit that job, so good meh?" every week. well, if i CAN blog abt how good is my job HERE, it'll be a SLAP on your BLOODY face. to you who have yet to step into the society, dont try to lecture or plan my life for me ("oh you should do something related to your diploma, work this good meh?"). a 3.5 GPA doesnt make you smarter or successful, neither does having the support of your parents to put you through a private uni makes you superior. ok, maybe you're just SO concerned about me. but thanks.
I'm sorry to say this but PLEASE get a life. i choose to work, and study later, though my pay's definitely not as high compared to the private sector, i am indeed happy being a civil servant. i have great colleagues, and bosses, i can earn my keep and spend my money with pride. dont teach me how to live my life.

saturday..
met up with jinhui, jenn, desmond, jerry & kairen yesterday for dinner.. it feels like year one again, a long time since such a big grp gathered. those days were simpler & yet vv fun! went city plaza with jess & crystal, and got a tube top for only $25! hee. though alrd shopped alot in hongkong but cant help it really..




city plaza is really a nice place to shop, have long heard that its like "wu fen pu" at taiwan, a wholesale places for clothes & fashion..the stuff there are vv FEP like but the prices are slightly lower than bugis st..so overall its a place worth visiting if your budget is below $30.. =)


had dinner with sean's parents, wanted to try the Famous Melben Crabs at AMK. we went there at 6pm ( i tot i was early), all the seats were full, and there was another "walk-in" queue, which was like 20+ ppl queuing alrd.. plus we couldnt find any parking, we decided to go to another place for crabs.. the zi char @ AMK central was equally good and they served their crabs in the pan! we ordered 2kg of crabs, black pepper & butter, bitter gourd soup, "tie-ban" tofu, "dou miao" with mushrooms. the price is reasonable for the quality, only $103 for these dishes..*yummy* was so busy eating so this was the only pic i took of my favourite crabs. heehee.


went suntec after dinner and wanted to queue for donuts factory, but gave up as the queue stretched up to the entrance of the toilets! went carrefour and bought a carebear bath towel~ lol. i dread going home cos tml is jus another bluey monday! I HATE MONDAYS. the only thing that makes me happy is dear is sending me to work tml! heehee.

a brand new month and i got myself addicted to this show now:
Smiling Pasta!

it stars Nicholas Teo & Cyndi Wang. thumbs up! though the story plot is somewhat goong + full hse, this pair made me camped in front of my comp throughout the day! mon was corporate retreat at singapore power building, a mixture of games & food. tues was SPF's ethics seminar, abt an hour of listening to ethics talk..so work kinda stopped for half a day each. met jess, crystal & sandy on thurs for dinner, and we did nothing but people watch & bitch at spinellis. i knew i was gonna be late, so bought some muffins to make up for it.. but jess was kinda turn off as the chocolate muffin was too BLACK. kinda like charcoal. wahaha.

darling came to fetch me from work again yesterday, and he promised to bring me to a restaurant we've never been to for some pasta. so in the end, he brought me to Dome!


his seafood baked rice tasted yummy, but my seafood tomato spaghetti tasted so-so. argh! the tomato was too overwhelming i thought..




looks vv much like the baked rice @ delifrance. but DEFINITELY nicer than delifrance's!

he stayed my house last night, and had duty today..hence leaving the bored me alone at home now.. =( gonna meet jess & crystal to recee city plaza later! hope i'll find something to buy!
