It's About My Life...

My Blog is dead, dead dead~~~~~~~~~

Should I revive or just leave it dead???

Verdict~~

2009-09-01T01:11:00.003+08:00

Just received my verdict for my offence..
Its a $200 fine and six demerit points of my 24points.
Its an expensive fine but I guessed i m reali lucky enough to receive only this much..
I believed I could be worse off if the worst happens..

Still coping with phobia in driving along smaller roads, especially when theres lots of jaywalkers..

I just need some TIME to recover.

Nevertheless, I would like to highlight on this:
- Please be responsible for your own life.
- If you want to die, pls look for elsewhere to do it.
- Never assume that drivers can see u, or have seen u

Just this evening earlier on, I saw an Indian old man crossing e road. He was so irresponsible!!
There were 5 lanes on the road and its a cross junction. lots of cars are turning left into that road.
The old man knew cars were coming, but he just stood there in the middle of the road! I believed the drivers must have been cursing and swearing on that old man. After a while, he continued strolling and stop in the middle of a lane when cars were approaching.. I was so afraid the old man getting hit.. Almost heart attack!! Finally he managed to cross to the other side safely.

Sometimes, I even have pedestrian esp older men crossing junctions - jaywaking without even looking out for themselves yet.

Haiz.. What can I say??

2009-07-17T16:55:00.003+08:00

Went to Traffice Police HQ this afternoon.

I was so anxious waiting for my turn to be interviewed.
The 1st shocking question was: Do you know how old is the pedestrian?
I answered: around sixties?
He replied: He is 85 YEARS OLD.

I was like: HUH??!!!

My question then came: Is the pedestrian ok?
The most comforting answer I have ever heard: He was discharged.

DISCHARGED? I was so relieved.. That pedestrian is really a strong man!! =)
(I was praying the day before and today that hewould be discharged. And he is!)

Anyway, the report that he generated was really detailed..
- like how many car lengths away did I see him, where was the man's location, how i reacted, what I do, which part of his body fell on my car, which part of the car did I hit him, how did he fall...

Outcome:
Still unknown. But preliminary investigations showed that I might be charge with inconsiderate driving. Maximum punishment: $200 and 9 demerit points.

Nevertheless, I am really glad that the pedestrian is fine.
Blessings to that pedestrian.. May him be healthy and live a full ripe age!

2009-05-18T12:25:00.003+08:00

Woah!!
Had been really busy lately due to:

- New House
(Sourcing for contractors, shopping for furniture, discussion with Jason and Jason's mum on how we want our new home to be)

- Tutees SA1 period..
(So stress for them as though I m taking examinations, having extra tuition sessions and hours..)

These two events made me so exhausted that I could hardly rest.
Luckily I had planned a Penang getaway trip over the weekends just to have a breather before I come back and start over again...

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

Getting a house is real no easy feat! There's gonna have lots of planning to be done, sourcing for the design you want, the budget you have, the reliable contractors (u wish they are), the colours coordination... (on and on...) Can you imagine the time taken off just to prepare all these??
Its our first house and we want to make it the way we want it!! Magazines and internet researching are definitely a must to furnish us with loads of ideas and concepts!!

THE PROGRESS??

- We've selected a renovation contractor to do the tiles, the bedroom, living room and kitchen.
- We've bought our furniture already!! So Excited!! Love those furniture...
- Room colours partially finalised.
- Living room theme finalised.
- Kitchen color theme not yet.
- Television haven got it yet.
- Other accessories not yet. (Lights and curtains, etc..)
That's about it!!

I just cant wait to move in and have a housewarming party!! =)
Most prob in July!!

Coming: Nxt blog on Penang.. Stay tuned.. =)

2009-05-05T14:23:00.002+08:00

Anyways, gg to Penang this wkend! Gonna have fun!!

ILUMA Bugis

2009-04-15T00:12:00.004+08:00

Iluma Bugis is open!!

Went on 9 Apr as gt an appt with my clients over there.
Only knew e opening after being informed by my clients.

The shopping mall is spacious and huge.. but alot of e spaces in the first floor are not taken up yet, so it looked kinda bland. But from the 2nd floor onwards, its almost full every floor!

This mall, I must say, is different from the others. Especially the 4th floor, where most of the F&B outlets are. The design is so unique and nice.. The outlets are not commonly seen as well.. Some are juz newly opened.. So if u run out of ideas of wat to eat, mayb u can juz drop by and have a selection to choose from..

Anyways, I like the concept of one of the Cafes.. I dun reali rem the name, shld b "Choc ~~"
Plus the manager/supervisor.. quite good-looking.. =D
The drinks are nice over there as well..

Ok, other than F&B, on the 5th floor (if I m not wrong), they have Film Garde cinema.. Looks new to me but it actually got another cinema at Kallang too..
They got this $6/ticket promotion so Jason and I bought a 12 MN ticket to watch "Fast & Furious' with just $6 on e eve of a PH!! Its so worth while..

While waiting for the show, we took a walk around 5th floor and went to the arcade.. The arcade are also very nice!! It reminds me of Japan where the technology there is so advanced! The arcade games r so interesting unlike Spore. The graphics of the screens are so clear and there also alot of other new, refreshing game machines around.

It is reali DIFFERENT! Must go!!

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

Anyway, the nxt day, I went back to watch 'Knowing' at $6 again.. Its a good Friday (PH), u noe.. only @ $6.. so worth it!! But too bad, the promotion alr over.. No more... =(

Jogging

2009-04-14T23:49:00.003+08:00

I have always liked to jog.. and I feel so awake and fresh after jogging out the sweat in my body, cleansing my skin, soaking it wet.. Especially after a nice bath, it just feels so refreshed, so good..

Anyways, had a jog with my youngest sis, Chloe last last sun.. at the jurong west stadium.. alot of ppl were jogging as well.. luckily, its not that crowded.. Had a non-stop run for 4km!! I cant believed myself that I can jogged for such a long dist..

I had always stopped at 2.4km and that's it.

But after hearing Isabel and Jenn who jogged for 4km 2 days earlier, I told myself I can do it too.. and

I DID IT..

Its not tough anyways.. That's easy.. LOL... [dun hit me =X]

Its just great!! =)

After a slow and steady jog, went to the Jurong west library and borrowed a few books.

Books written by Jude Deveraux. I recommended her books to Chloe - "Someone to Love"
Her books are really creative, unexpected and a definite page turner.. I could read finish her book within a day!! Too addictive.. feel like as though I was casted by a spell to finish the book! I had to tell myself: STOP!! and go to sleep! LOL..

After borrowing more of her books, quickly went home to read other books of hers..

Busy busy...

2009-04-08T00:06:00.002+08:00

Had so much stuff wana share and blog about.. but was real busy these days...

BUSY!!!!!!!!!!!!

Time reali running short... Got so many stuff to do...

Scary Movie Date 29-Mar (sun)

2009-04-03T17:58:00.004+08:00

I am not reali a fan of watching horror movies.. Neither is my younger sis,Chloe..
But as a request from my elder cousin, and there seemed no other movies to watch, we chose this movie.. Had a hard time persuading Chloe to go and watch..
B4 i make my way to CWP, I had thots of how m I gg to get aslp that night.. or to go to the washroom on my own.. I always have a phobia after watching horror films or hear ghostly stories. My imaginations juz went wild.. =(

We had ample time b4 the start of the movie, so off we went to Ichiban Sushi to have a light dinner..

Haha.. took this shot of my elder cousin, Vicott, when i tot camera's nt wrking...

A better one..

My younger cousin Ting Ting..

Trying to act stupid...

He's always has this cap along with him if u guys noticed well enough..

Me and my youngest sister, Chloe

After dinner and some window shopping, we proceeded to the theatre..

Verdict of the show - nice, quite a number of scary scenes, exciting for me...

Good for a weekday movie only.. Not quite worth watching on a wkend... =)

PolyYr1 Gang

2009-03-20T23:17:00.002+08:00

It has been so long since the 4 of us hang out le..

Me, Isabel, Xiao wei and Tricia!!

We are the group of poly in our 1st year studies.. It was already hmm.. 6 years alr!! Wow!
All thanks to Tricia who initiated a meetup.. =)

We met at IMM of coz the place was chosen by me due to 1st 3 hours of free parking..
And we ate at Cafe Cartel, of coz again the place chosen by me coz gt free bread..
OMG.. M i becoming more and more like auntie?? haahaa
Anyway, we reali enjoy each other's company and we couldnt stop talking..

I finished my last tuition job at around 630pm today, then went to fetch bel and wei @ CCK, afterwhich went to fetch Tricia and made our way to IMM..

Do you know I had to turn off the radio in my car??? It's too noisy with the gals in!!!
In the Cartel restaurant, we also cant control our volume.. Oh my.. What have we become??
Until I discovered, we have already made our way to the cashier and guess wat, I cant hear the cashier talking coz the gals are extremely NOISY!!!

I wondered if we have irritated anyone.. wahaa...

Our topics also change as we grow.. More on marriage stuff, facial stuff, house stuff, baby stuff, work stuff, etc... We have matured so much over the years..

No more gossips like wat we used to have.. haahaa.. =)

I enjoyed my day today! =)
Love the gals..

What's wrong with me?

2009-03-18T23:04:00.004+08:00

1st day of period..

Had a serious cramp today.. couldnt wrk.
It got so serious that I was having cold sweat all over my body.
After ate a few tiny bites of the bread, I ate the Pink Panadol (for cramps)

It started to get worse and I felt like puking. I rushed to the toilet and puke everything out.
From my mouth and NOSE!! Eww.. Disgusting...

My hands were also feeling cold and went numb. I could sensed something was very wrong.
My bro-in-law then acc me to the doc.. I couldnt walk long distance and rest every few mins. I even laid on the benches,hoping to ease the pain a little.

~~TORTURE~~

Reached the doc's clinic with my bro-in-law's help by piggybacking me.
Doc questioned me so many qns. He started to say things that reali scared me.

Suspected 3 problems:
- Miscarriage
- Ectopic Pregnancy
(In case you dun noe, this condition means that the egg was fertilized outside the uterus aka womb - usually fatal and can cause death of the woman)
- Menses Cramp

Got an injection to ease the pain, and did a urine test.

Phew! I was not pregnant in the 1st place. Its juz a cramp.
Doc explained why:
The womb will prepare blood for the fertilized egg to grow.
After a period of time if no egg is fertilized, the body signals that the blood is dirty and has to be disposed of.
The hormones in the body will try to force the blood out of the womb and that is why we usually experience a little discomfort and pain.

Due to my irregularity of menstrual period, the blood in the womb to be prepared for the baby would have accumulated by a lot. Therefore more hormones are around my lower abdomen area to get rid of the blood, causing me pain. And usually it also affects my intestines, which made me wana puke.

I understand now le.. Haiz.. Women are so vulnerable.. Envy those who do not have such prob.. Went back home and rest the whole day..

Feel alot of beta now but feeling drowsy bcoz of the medicine..

Rotting on a Sunday

2009-03-17T01:04:00.002+08:00

I am so addicted to Mahjong you noe...

Sunday got only 1 tuition session, as some cxl.. so I got home ard 11am..
Then jio Jason and mum-in-law for san-que-yi (3-person) Mahjong game.
(Ps: we have been playing until 2am on Saturday night.. hiak hiak)

From 11am plus, we played until 6plus.. so hungry siah.. then settled for dinner...
OMG.. I am so so so addicted... how?

Halfway our game, the rain storm came.. Really rain storm... so scary..
All the doors came banging on the walls and the winds sent the waves of rainwater into our home.. Thunders kept drumming in our ears like trying to make our ears deaf lo...

We have to close all windows and doors but still feel small droplets of water squeezing in thru the tiny openings from the doors.. plus all the howling of the winds make me relief that I was not home alone/outside driving.. (Definitely cant see where I am going de lo)

We heard alot of things dropping around our neighbourhood.. some really loud banging like their windows have fallen out.. Nevertheless, we couldnt care a thing less and carried on our game.. TOO ADDICTED TO CARE~~~~~~

Am still waiting vincent to arrange a K session with my k khakkies... Boring...

The worst has come..

2009-03-09T13:15:00.002+08:00

I didnt expected something like that will happen so fast..
I took it for granted and never got myself prepared.. =(

Y like that.. Feeling real down now..
Nothing could replace my hard-earned accumulation of my life for the past 9 years..

My hard disk couldnt work anymore...
I lost the entire files, folders of my personal stuff, my work stuff...

ALL GONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here's what happen....

I went to the living room with my laptop and put it on the arms of the sofa. I sat down on the sofa and my big and stupid butt pushed the laptop and it fell to the ground. It was alright at first, but it started to lag and eventually the system shut down by itself..

Tried multiple times to revive it.. BUT.... sobz..... It was dead! How??
All my things were inside..

A few days ago, I actually wanted to copy my stuff over to my portable hard disk but I kept pushing it under my unimportant tasks to complete... U c now..

GONE... Never to return... =(

Today is the Day!!

2009-03-05T12:02:00.002+08:00

Hoho.. Today is the 7th yr anniversary for me and Jason...

We have been together till today since exactly 7 years ago...

Will we b expecting the '七年之痒'? Haa.. I doubt so..
Dont want that to happen either.. Juz keep doors closed and avoid the 桃花..
We will overcome all difficulties and challenges that come across!!

Had a lazy morning today and didnt went for Sales Training.. OMG..
Wonder how my boss is gonna deal with me later.. ;(
Haven planned anything for tonight... Work first then decide..

(Wont b expecting anything exciting from him coz he's not a romantic guy =p)

Rainy day nearly cost my life!!

2009-03-03T14:27:00.003+08:00

Haa.. The title seems abit exaggerating...

Nowadays seems to b the raining season.. not so hot in the afternoon..
This morning was on my way to cck for a tuition session, when it rained so heavily and hard, I could hardly see where I was going..

I was almost late so I sped my way on KJE.. I was going at 100km/h.. Hmm... not reali at high speed actually. Its just that during heavy rains like that, its rather unsafe to drive fast as the roads are quite slippery.

And... OMG!! I lost control of the car.. I reali got a shock!
The car was going like zig zag (small zig zags - to b actual).. Its just uncontrollable!

I quickly applied my brakes. Luckily no cars were around me and the car got back to normal..
From that moment, I dun dare to drive so fast le, kept at 80km/h...

Hoho.. Lucky me.. I m still alive..

7th year anniversary..

2009-03-01T23:55:00.003+08:00

Our 7th year anniversary of couplehood is arriving soon..

Since 05 March 2002..

And I was only 17+ years old!! OMG!! Never did I imagined, I found my life partner at that young age! I guessed at that time, I must have been ignorant and playful?? Hmm...

Of coz we went through lots of obstacles and challenges in pursuing our life together. I reali ponder how Jason can stand me and my tempermental behaviour..

No one can replace him in my life and heart! Love him!! =)

Happy (Advanced) Anniversary to us!

The very 1st day of March..

2009-03-01T23:35:00.004+08:00

Today got two tutee jobs and ended around 1230pm..
Appt @ client's place at 130pm was cxl. So its free day!!!

Had a craving for cereal prawn!! Not only crave to eat but oso crave to DIY myself!!
Haha.. We went to Giant @ IMM to buy e ingredients after searching on the internet for the receipe.

Then discovered that Watson's & Giant's stuff quite expensive de.. did some comparisons (based on past experiences and mum-in-law comments) and decided NTUC and Sheng Shiong are the cheapest store around Singapore. But for convenient and free parking sake, we dun mind pay alittle bit more.. keke...

Got e ingredients and started to make the cereal prawn. As usual, my mum-in-law would always help out.. Oh no, i m too dependent on her le.. how can i live without her?? =(

And..... as usual, i definitely will do something wrong de lo.. Haiz.. When will i get things accurately right??!! Nevertheless, that mistake i make was still recoverable.. Phew!

Verdict of the dish - turned out ok, at least it looked like cereal prawn.. Had some comments with my mum-in-law and we r gonna improve on it!! Didnt take any pictures coz i was too hungry and ate up the prawns!! =D

Oh ya, didnt update wat i did for Valentine's evening... Didnt go out anywer though.. I made some Mango Sago for Jason.. Not bad too.. =) Except the mango was abit sour.. Haahaa...
Looking forward to try more dishes in e near future!

Valentine's Day

2009-02-14T14:39:00.005+08:00

Tired after a few rounds of mahjong with Jason and his mum last night, I dragged myself up from the bed.. After washing up and having cereal for breakfast, I drove my way to my 1st tutee's house.

Saw a man holding onto a bouquet of lovely flowers at the bus-stop, reminded me of the day it is today. Alot of lovey dovey birds will be spending this special day romantically together..
Yet today is the day which both of us have to work.

That means no time together. No Time..

On the way driving home (after job's done), glanced up the upper deck of Bus 30 and saw a couple so lovingly chatted with each other. (so they are going to start their day off, mayb movie or dinner).

Me? Work... and now an hour break before the next tutee.. I m here writing out my thoughts before they go all the way to the back of my mind.

When I was younger, I used to look forward for every Valentine's Day,exchanging gifts and surprises. But as I got older, this day doesn't seems to ring a bell. Its juz another normal day.
Gifts? No. No gifts/surprises. Nothing.. coz as a couple, we dont have to wait till this day to do something romantic. Everyday should be romantic! Haa, as if only..

Updates!!
Went to book a flat at HDB Hub last thursday. So many procedures and information to know. Forgot to bring this and that.
Anyway, finally got a flat of our own.. I hope that the loan will go through asap. =)

The New Jurong Point!

2008-12-21T20:15:00.015+08:00

Went to Jurong Point yesterday evening..

OMG!! I was so amazed and am still now!

Its has been undergoing construction over that area and when my mum-in-law told me abt the newly opened extension, Jason and I popped by to have a glance!

Its HUGE!! Alot of new outlets (Accessories, Boutiques,Food stalls, Restaurants)

I think we may need some time to get used to the new extended shopping mall.

The size of the mall reminds me abit of Vivovity, the shops there reminds me abit of IMM. But to me, Jurong Point is the best of all!!

We were rushing for time coz I need to get to Clementi KBOX to meet the usual 'K Kakkies', Vincent, Sheryl and Sherilyn! So no choice, have to leave shopping @ JP till nxt time..

Jason, Adrian and his family also joined us for the ktv but they booked another room instead. Singing that night was so fun! Its been so long we have meet up for a session with my K Kakkies..
Anyway, some are some artistic pics taken by Dominic (Adrian's and Valerie's son) of us!

Enjoy!!

- Poses we did for him..

Next door ktv room.. Jason, Adrian n Valerie

Janice @ far left..

He made Vincent did the poses for a face.. Poor Vince..

And.. I guessed he reali has nothing to take, so he took pics of our slippers and shoes..

My slippers!

Vincent's

Sherilyn's

And this is the mischievous boy..... Dominic

But to my horror, the people were reali v heavy and my baby car cldnt take it.

Whose fault? Jason ok! Coz he modified and lowered the car body so carrying more ppl means the car is going to get even lower!!

Hee.. Not exactly couldnt take it la.. Its juz that the wheel's arch kept hitting the wheel at left back end..

Nvrtheless, it didnt stop us from taking pics!!

Ah Ting, Yifeng and Me!

As it was still early and was drizzling, we went bowling..

Here are some pics..

Preparing for the fire...

Did u see my Ah Fei cousin doing the stuff by himself and the gals simply are too bz with their picture taking!

What is she doing?

Jumping and deep breathing, I suppose?? haha..

I know you are getting hungry, Joanne....

Oh, Yifeng looked so relaxed!!

Hmm.. Joanne looked like she is juz posing for the SAKE of posing..

Finally, they are contributing..

Joanne is contributing too..

She is the camera woman..

Dont the food look delicious? Haha..

1 waiting, 1 bz munching hotdog and 1 eating with an open mouth... hee..

Snapshot!! What is YiFeng doing? Acting as a monkey?

Wahahaaaa..

I am the queen! Fan me, I am feeling HOT!!

The day ended with some cleaning up and finishing the leftovers.. All of us were so full,oily and...

SMELLY!! We left ECP ard 9plus and home we went!

HDB Balloting Exercise...

2008-12-12T16:42:00.002+08:00

Finally I got a smaller queue no.... 44 out of 120++ flats available!!

This is my 3rd try already. Since 2007, I have been trying to get flats around Jurong areas but...

1st try:
I got a queue no: 900 plus. The flats available were only 400-500.
So there goes my chance. 10,000 over ppl applied!

2nd try:
Worst! I gt 4000 plus.. dont need to even think about it ok.
This time if I am not wrong, abt 5000-6000 ppl applied.
You know y reduce? Coz govt implemented a scheme that if u applied for fun and then rejected the offer to get the flats, u will lose a chance as a first time buyer.

3rd try:
Finally my number is 44! I am confident I can get a flat this time. Think the size is reali small lo.. Actually I made a mistake coz i didnt research carefully b4 I registered. The blocks i registered for are actually en-bloc flats - new flats lo.. so v small!!!

*angry... anyway, dun b fussy.. can get flats in Jurong not bad le. V excited!! Cant wait to move in!! =)

2008-12-01T23:50:00.002+08:00

Woah.. Today is reali a long long day.. I am so dead beat tired.

Had a Company Kickoff .. Meeting in morning first and games at Sentosa..

Had so much fun playing the team games.. and also canoeing...
It's bn so long since I last play this water activity but it is the first time I played a triple canoe!!

FUN!! but tiring... at the end, my hands had no strength anymore...
Games at the beach ended around 5plus.. and then headed for dinner at The Sail @ Marina Bay.
Its a 70-storey high condominium! We are at one of the function room at 44th floor.. The view is so breathtaking!! Love that place.. Btw I heard a unit over there cost from millions!! (depends on the unit types) So ex!!

After dnr, games again.. this time more on mentality games.. But most of the blood in our body are bz digesting food, how to think? haha...

A day passes so quickly.. and now I am dozing off while writing this blog.. Reali gotta sleep for the night.. Nitez!! =)

Allergic Reactions

2008-11-26T13:02:00.004+08:00

Oh my god, who knows I got this allergic reaction to one of the medicines - Pulin (metoclopramide)...

Got rashes and itch all over my body... couldnt sleep the whole night, kept scratching..

WiErDoEs

2008-11-22T22:05:00.003+08:00

Received alot of comments from my friends that I didnt update my blog...
I am bz, you know.. hahaha...

Anyway..Here goes:

Quite sometime ago, I was walking towards home after alighting from the lift on the 4th floor, when I saw an old uncle neighbour standing just by his doorstep, with his hands gripped on his metal gate grilles, watching me... no, shld be STARING at me walking past him. His eyes were fixed to my eyes, emotionless, stoned face.. oh, so eerie.. =O

At that moment, I got a flashback of something which I saw a few days ago~~~

I remembered I was approaching the Bukit Batok void decks, rushing for time, when I saw from afar an elderly man was sitting and resting under the block. As I got nearer to him, he stood up all of the sudden. His belt was already UNBUCKLED, and he was there fiddling with his PANTS.. I was puzzled at that instance but I couldnt care less as I was rushing.. I just walked past him.

I supposed that elderly man was trying to take off his pants to show me something or wat??
Wierdo... Anyway, this incident didnt scare me at all.. The worst was the one I had with that PEEPTOM!!

Recommendation Time!! [Hair Treatment]

2008-11-13T21:29:00.016+08:00

I believe you guys should know that longer hair is harder to manage.
Not only that, the weather in Spore also adds to the prob.

For the past few months, I always have had this problem every single day!! It's so frustrating that I have to keep going back to the hairdresser to trim my split ends.. That's waste loads of $$$... Now economy is not good - I wana save more $$, I also dun wan to c my hair getting shorter, ,neither do I wan to c my hair condition getting worser and worser..

My hair kept getting tangled up at the ends and its obviously damaged. I cant help but keep touching my hair to untangle the mess.
I decided to end this prob.

And ........

I found this:

A container of little capsules of hair treatment!
I remember I got it while I was in Polytechnic and I got it together with Isabel from Watson's store...

That's about "4 YEARS" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wonder got Seh Gor anot... haha... Anyway, left only a few capsules and they look like that:

After trying.....

Its like a miracle!! The whole day, my hair feels so smooth, frizz-free, tangle-free. I nvr had such nice hair for .... lost count~~~!! I love my hair and it smells good!!! I am so proud of my hair today.. haha... kept flinging and flinging my hair.. (imagine me acting like a model in an advert.. haa... ;P)

I cant wait to get home and blog about it!!

Muz buy!! Its called Ellips Hair Vitamin.. Pink is for treatment, Yellow is for Smooth and Shiny, Purple, I tink its for colour.

They cum in container of 50 capsules at ard $16.95 (i tink) and also 5 capsules at ard $1.95.

If you wana buy, can buy the 5 capsules for trial. If you reali like it, then buy the container.

That's all.. =)

Continuation of our Japan Trip... TOKYO!!!

2008-11-07T01:19:00.007+08:00

Bye Osaka... Hello Tokyo...

@ Train station early in the am... Tired face.. We change alot of trains in order to get to Tokyo!
Took about 2 hour plus plus to reach Tokyo.. So so so so tired.. haha... Plus carrying all the luggages...

Most trains have this Ladies Only Cabin... Only during peak hours

On board Japan Shinkansen~~ Quite fast...

Finally we reached Tokyo... Need to change train again.. To get to our hotel @ Shinjuku...
Look at the screens.. They are so user-friendly.. unlike singapore...

- Showing next station...

- Showing the station stop

Showing the route map...

Nice right? Anyway, I read about the recent news, they say Singapore are going to test drive some trains with the improved system of showing passengers the route map, indicating the current stop, the next station... etc... I hope this will be improved asap though I am not a frequent user of public transport.. =P

Reaching Shinjuku.. Having lunch at Macdonald's
Noticed that they have this :

Just a glass to separate smokers and non-smokers...

Actually over here, we couldnt find our hotel location.. So I rested at Mac, while he went to the police station and asked for directions. I missed out on this part.. coz when i looked at the map while researching, it was very near the train station. So I assumed I could find the hotel easily. Who knows, the hotel we booked,were not in the maps!!! haha...

Nevertheless, we still managed to find our hotel...

Here we are!!
~Our small hotel room~

Out we went, after dropping our luggages..
Took the train to Shimbashi stn and change to Yurikamone Elevated Train to get to Daiba stn.

So sad... The dog is so loyal ya..

Shibuya 109 is one of the must places to shop! This place sells the trendiest clothes in town.. V v v v nice!! But oso v v v v expensive!!! I saw so many clothes I love to make them mine.. But its far too much for my budget... In the end, I just shop around and drool at those clothes.. Haha...

Hee... We went back to Harajuku again!! =)

Dinner time!!

Finally, we managed to wake up early that day and make our way to Mt Fuji!!
Actually, we planned to go either on the 1st or 2nd day we reach Tokyo, but we were simply too tired to wake up early and we slept and slacked till like 11am/12noon then wake up.. Haha...

On board the bus to Mt Fuji!!

Getting Ready and 1st day in Osaka,Japan

2008-09-13T16:29:00.031+08:00

As there was still time for us from the actual flight departure and I was v hungry, we had a little supper.

Caught eating away!

Stupid Mike,tk so close up lo...

Took a snap of him.. =/

.

After about 6 hours flight away, we arrived at KANSAI AIRPORT INTL (Osaka)...

Finally!!

So instead of going together with the group to the spa, we separated and move on our own to the hotel 1st..

Our very first train ride...

Have to look at the map 1st to make our way to NAMBA..

My ticket!!

Ok, still very early in the am... so we left our luggage in the hotel and gathered with Jason and the rest.
Jason and I then moved on our own to explore Osaka..

Our very own sweet honeymoon starts.. =)

Lunch was ok.. bit disappointed though..

A subway train ticket from Namba stn to Morinomiya stn (Osaka Castle)

Map of the Osaka Castle and surroundings

Taking pics and strolling along the garden

While we are strolling and enjoying the view, it rained with thunderstorm all of the sudden. Luckily we managed to get shelter where there is a restaurant and a small shop. We were so bored... =(

It lasted for like 45mins.. I guess.. Nvrtheless, we moved on to the castle once the heavy rain got into a small drizzle..

Entrance Fee - 600 Yen

Its a 7th storey castle.. But the in the castle, its not wat I had expected (like palace room, kitchen etc) but its only a museum showcasing how the founder (king) built his empire and history..

At the very top, it had a very nice view though!

Nice breathtaking views!

See! Some flood on the grounds..

Some pics in the museum..

Nice structure!!

At the Main gate... (one of the two entrances into the castle during the historic times)

Look at the water.. all mouldy already.. Eeks!! These surrounds the whole castle grounds.. To prevent enemies from easy entrance.. So to attack into the castle, u need to go thru either one of the two entrances..

Some already have algae or plants growing... But its nice! so greenery... I guessed we called this swamp?

Ok back to the hotel and checked into my room.. Did some touch up b4 heading to our dinner! Proudly sponsored by my District Director, Mr Triston Soo!!

Woah!! To our surprise, the steamboat dinner turned out delicious! Great Dinner!!!!

The Jap style of steamboat is using no soup base but just boiling water! So healthy!

Then you dipped the steamed food into a bowl of Jap soy sauce(I think).. Yummy!!

C my boss drank the Sake, face so red.. haha....

Towards the end of dinner, the rest went toasting and playing...

Then went to have a walk around the streets of Shinsaibashi..

Look at them!! So happy to be on tv.. haha...

After that the rest went to the pub to see the nightlife of Osaka.. But as I was too tired after a long day, we headed back to our hotel..

~End of Day 1~

Back to Spore..

2008-09-13T16:10:00.004+08:00

Yo guys, I am back from my Japan holiday aka honeymoon!

Didnt get alot of things though coz was controlled by Jason as the stuff there reali expensive lo. Over there reali higher standard of living.

Will upload the pics once they are ready.. =)

Yesterday mum broke a shocking news to me manz... My fav uncle was hospitalised due to accident.

HE LOST BOTH LEGS!! I was so sad when I visited him..

It happened last Tue, on the 9th Sep 08 when a lorry knocked him down and the wheels went over his right hand and both legs.
He was very emotional and couldnt stop thinking of ending his life.. Haiz...
But luckily after much consolation by our family members and relatives, he resigned himself to fate.

What would I feel if I were him? Of cos sad la... But wat to do.. Fate ma.. Its all about our destiny.. We cant predict our very own future or know what we will eventually lose..

But the only thing I think I need to do is to treasure my loved ones around me, my friends, accomplished things I always wanted to do while I still can and is able to and live happily..

Ok, will stop here...
Look out for Japan pics in next entry!!

Is it juz typical SINGAPOREAN DRIVERS or humans??!!

2008-08-23T02:13:00.011+08:00

Sometimes.. its reali a pain in the neck... and my delicate left foot/sole..

Road accidents are alot more common when u r driving every single day. Be it Fatal, Serious, Major, Minor or merely a scratch or just a bump... Ever since I started driving a year ago, I had my own fair share of accidents. But luckily none caused a BIG HOLE in my pocket and no injury cases. =)

But my heart still goes to those who were much more unfortunate and had to leave behind their love ones and be brought away from this world. Every time, I saw a limp body on the road (of coz already covered with black plastic, otherwise i b having nightmares and phobia), I couldnt help feeling that life is so fragile and frail and accidents happen in split seconds!

I have friends of friends, ex-colleagues family members who were victims of these accidents.

It is happening around us (mayb every sec/min/hour?) and we might not reali feel for them bcoz they are not in a way or another related to us. But if we were to feel for everyone, i guessed we will not b able to get on with our life already lo. Always crying... feeling... for them (ppl we dun noe?)

Everyone always thought that their life will not be ended in such a tragic way. But life is unpredictable and full of uncertainties.. What we can do at the very least, is to provide a safer environment around us.

Each of us have a responsibility to make sure that we dun put others in danger bcoz of our negligence. ESPECIALLY FOR DRIVER AND OTHER ROAD USERS.

OK now to the main topic of the day... (after such a emotional start)

Its maddening!! I had two road jams in a day!! one in the afternoon [PIE towards Changi Airport - from Clementi all the way to Bukit Timah] and the other in the evening [CTE from AMK all the way to forget wer liao]!

The evening one I can understand coz there was an accident and its involved injury. BUT the afternoon one... can u imagine? It involves accident on the opposite side of the highway!

So wat caused the jam? KAYPOH onlookers!!! who just couldnt concentrate on their driving or were damn free and cruised on while looking on the remains of the crushed cars. What they did not know was that all the vehicles on the 4lanes (i supposed) behind them were creeping toward in speeds of less than 10-20km/h!

My poor left sole.. It was so so so so ..... suan (sore) after keeping stepping on the clutch for every inch forward, shifting between Gear 1 and 2!!!!

So is it juz humans who are curious of situation around them or TYPICAL SPOREANS?!

What's so nice to watch the damaged cars? Juz move on and drive with care otherwise they b the cause of ANOTHER stupid accident!

It was so damn frustrating to know that the CAUSE of the jam was that stupid! stupid! stupid!!! ahem.. action!!

To add to my poor soreful sole.... the 2nd jam in the evening started at the very entrance of the highway! damn it! Had bn wondering why i didnt persuaded my hubby to get juz a auto-transmission car..... too late for regrets now.. =(

My New Pets ------ Timmy and Tammy

2008-08-03T22:53:00.006+08:00

Got these cute little pets a month ago..
I rem I got two, one at a time each, while I was in primary and the other time in secondary sch times...

The 1st one I didnt really take gd care and I supposed it died of hunger.. My whole family was v sad when it left. And.. they blamed me for its death.
The 2nd one I think I gave it away.. didnt have much memory about it though... Keke.. Like I so bad..

Nevertheless, I reali gave alot of thought b4 I got them.. Initially, I wanted a pet dog but both my husband and mum-in-law disagreed!! so no choice, I demanded hamsters and I got approval! =D

After some thoughts, decided to name them Timmy and Tammy.. The idea came about bcoz of the timid male hamster.. haa... always squeaking whenever we r near.
But now it is squeaking less often. I suppose its getting tamer.. =)

Here are some pics of them!
They are so cute, aren't they??

A small video of them..
They are like taking turns to run the wheel..
So funny when one was thrown off the wheel but interrupted by my hp!

The number of days we had been together!!

2008-07-23T11:48:00.002+08:00

Saw this at my friend blog and found it to be interesting... so i oso wana put!!

Nice!! didnt reali counted the number of days we have been together..

didnt realise that it was so long..

Swimming ~ Routine-to-be??

2008-07-21T22:07:00.003+08:00

As Mr Jason was away for team-building camp from last Fri-Sun, I could foresee a boring weekend is coming to me... So I called my buddies, Sheryl and Sherilyn, and booked them over the weekend since Wed... Hiak Hiak...

After some suggestions on the places to go or things to see..., we decided on a money-saving activity... that is... CHIT CHAT session!!! Went to West Coast Mac last Fri as the place is quite nice to hang out.. spacious, windy.. though alot of mosquitos!

It has been quite a long time we had never caught up with one another.. We reali talked everything under the sun.. erm.. should be moon instead.. Our topics ranged from our jobs, careers, life, beauty stuff, perverts..

We decided to have some healthy activities.. we r starting on our swimming session on sunday am.. and we had planned to continue every sun. Juz wondering how long will this routine last? Will we persever? Time will tell...

Our last topic was on perverts.. Each of us got our own share of scary experiences.. Sheryl has had got the scariest one.. We tok abt our own experiences and of others we had heard before.. All of us still have phobias when we go home.. Have to be extra careful, you know.. You never know who is aiming and watching you... Haiz...

In the end, I did not dare to go home alone and could not stop worrying about sheryl gg home alone, so I stayed over at her house instead.. We were like scaredy cats.. kept turning our heads around to look for suspicious characters waiting at any corner.. (TOO PARANOID!!!) But couldnt help it, cant let our guards down.. Haa... Thinking about it, makes me laugh... Anyway, we were safe and sound at home around 1plus in the am.. and well.. we then rest for the night..

Jasmine bday @ Sakae Sushi

2008-07-14T00:06:00.004+08:00

~Dinner at Sakae Sushi Restaurant~

Had a bad day coz was caught in a jam for almost an hour plus juz to get to Orchard Rd. (which usually only tk abt 20-25mins) and I was late for my dinner appt!!

But since Missy Jasmine (my client) and Mike (my colleague) didnt reali mind.. hehe... Had a nice dinner with salmon and tuna sashimi, scallop, and alot of nice sushi... Love it!

Time for pictures!! Tried With and W/O flashes

~Juz a simple dinner~

2008-07-13T23:51:00.004+08:00

Had been cracking my brain cells to plan for a romantic 1st year wedding anniversary but due to WORK commitments, I had no choice but to push those plans aside. My last appt on 070708 was at BEDOK and it ended around 9pm. After that I rushed down to Jurong to meet Jason. But there wasnt much to do anyway, so we decided to go for a simple dinner.

Went to IMM and browse thru the directory listing on resturants and saw 'SpagettiToo'.
So we went to give it a try.

Not exactly a nice ambience at the restaurant. I dun noe if i shld call it a restaurant. I think calling it a cafe will b much suitable.

Saw this special offer. Both of us tried the steak. It was nice except it wasnt cooked to "medium rare" as what we had requested.

Some cam whoring before we went home..

Happy 1st Yr Anniversary! (since 070707)

2008-07-08T12:17:00.002+08:00

So fast 1 yr has passed! Our 1st year is filled with more love, laughter and of coz not forgetting fights! Haha..
It was an advancement of level of our relationship since we got married. We have learnt to be more responsible and mature. We are no longer in BGR already.. and I have stopped moving back home everytime we quarrelled!
Oops! Ok, I was childish ok.. I m the one who always come up with silly patterns and actions to spite him when I m angry.. =P

He, on the other hand, has also become alittle more mature and he is working hard to make our lives better. I believe he can make it! =)

Nobody can ever replace him in my life and.. my heart! I love him!

Hancock

2008-07-08T12:12:00.003+08:00

Watched the Hancock. Nice Superhero show... Interesting storyline with some touching scenes..
If Missy Emotional Jenn watch the show, she will definitely cry one.. haa..

Movie Recommended!!

He Strikes After Midnight!

2008-07-01T11:23:00.005+08:00

He is BOLD, he is SCARY and he is a PERVERT!!

This time I saw him myself! Not in terms of his whole person but I saw his hand.

I was working late last nite, staying at my office to do my telemarketing calls, some follow up work till abt 1135pm. I left the office and drove home. I reached the multi-storey carpark ard midnight and waited for Jason as he was also on his way home, driving his company van. We then made our way home together..

Nothing special or strange things happened, nor we suspected or was anything different...

It was getting v v late and I decided to take a shower and rest for the day.
I went into my bedroom, closed the door and pull my blue moons and stars curtain closed. While I sat infront of my bedside mirror to remove my makeup, I saw the reflection of my curtain moving. It was moving as though the wind was blowing thru the window.

Strange No 1 - I rem the weather was stuffy (not windy). How can my curtain b moving?
Strange No 2 - Only at my end, the curtain was moving. The other side was v still...
Strange No 3 - The fan in my room was not switched on!!

But the curtain was still moving... so my eyes slowly strolled up the curtains and I saw a HAND!!
The anonymous pervert was pushing the curtain away!!!!!!!!!! He was peeping!!

I gt a shock and my heart nearly failed! All I could do was to scream my lungs out!
Jason n Avan (younger bro-in-law), rushed to see what happened to me. I was too shocked to speak!
Finally, I managed to shout out that the peep tom was outside.
But the guy managed to flee.. Again..

Other past incidents:
-Neighbour saw him squatting outside our bedroom windows, looking at the reflection thru the glass windows [ard midnight] (so we put up a curtain)
- Dad-in-law saw him climbing on a hard box pushing the curtain and peeping while we were sound asleep [ard 3am] (Dad-in-law saw that he is a young guy and warn him not to do it again. Haiz.. Y did he let him go?)

What about the other times when no one saw him? How many times have he been peeping?
Do you like been watched/peeped at? I believe nobody likes.
Whenever, I flashed back the scenes or tok abt it, I will develop goosebumps on my whole body.. It was damn uneasy...

Cry... I dun wana stay here!! I m so afraid!!
I hope I will get over this real soon.. =(

You dont mess up with the Zohan (NC16/Sexual/Humor)

2008-06-30T22:44:00.012+08:00

Watched the movie: "You dont mess up with the Zohan" as strongly recommended by Jenn and Lynn esp JENN!

Attendees: Sheryl & BaoKwang, Jason & Me!

We are on double date! Invited Sheryl & Baokwang to watch this movie on last Saturday 28th June 08 at Jurong Point GV..

Ppl who noe me well enough hor, will noe that usually gt gd things will share with ppl hor.. haa
Here it goes on my little sharing.. (",)

When i got to Jurong point to purchase the tickets, I discovered that there is a priority queue for PLATINUM VISA card members, so I took my card and check if there is a word Platinum there. True enough, i saw the little white 'platinum' word on the top right hand corner.

So instead of queuing along the long queue, I took the liberty and stood at the priority queue and asked the lady serving the counter next to me if I can get my tickets at this counter with my card. The lady say can leh!! haha... so the next person was me.. I dun have to queue!!! =)

Not only dat leh.. I oso gt to know from the lady that if I book 4 tickets online on sat or sun, I only need to pay the price of 3! That's savings!! (only setback- only eligible for the 1st 50 customers)

Ok, talk abt this movie. Its abit gross/disgusting lo.. make older women like v desperate, abit political (i heard abt bush,clinton,obama), abit nationalist too. Nevertheless, we have to open our hearts and minds and juz enjoy the laughter.

Gd way to relieve stress too! M i under alot of stress?

The answer is YES!!!!!! Argh!!!

Had been looking forward for my birthday.. as I have been celebrating in advance with different groups of friends..

Finally the day 19th June has arrived.... But nothing special.. feel nothing leh as though it is like a normal day.. Preparing to go to office and meet with clients for my appointments.

My last appointment was at Centrepoint and it ended about 9plus. Actually Jason had planned to take me out for dinner but it seemed like most restaurants would have closed by then. So i drove home with a disappointed mood while he waited for me.. So... my BDAY DINNER is near our home marketplace - Fishball Meepok.. =(

But nv did i expected that there was a surprise waiting to spring into action..

When i opened the bedroom door after using the toilet, he was waiting in the room with the cake and he sang the birthday song.. ~ So Sweet~

It wasnt so bad after all.... =)

Bday Celebration (2) Saturday..

2008-06-18T11:25:00.005+08:00

Me with lovely Valerie and her hubby, Adrian..

His colleagues...

That's me towards the end of clubbing around 5am.. i was dead beaten and drowsy alr..

It was fun. Had dinner with Valerie at Secret Recipe @ Vivocity and took our own sweet time to stroll down to St James. We are supposed to reach at 830pm in order to secure the table we have booked. But.. we reached around 1030pm... Haa... The staff has alr released our table..
Nevertheless we still managed to get a table.. Lucky us!! =)

The live band @ St James were entertaining.. with performances and costumes.. But we were actually looking forward for the R&B genre from the DJ so most of the time we were seated by our table glancing around, watching ppl drink,dance n sing..

When R&B songs kicked in and friends started to come, we danced our night away..

The night was great! Love the group.. Had lots of greetings from friends and most impt of all, i enjoyed myself.. =D

My House Flooded!!!!

2008-06-16T14:40:00.002+08:00

Two sundays ago, my house was flooded with dirty waters from the 8 families staying above us!!

My mum-in-law and bro-in-law were sleeping in their own bedrooms when the main pipe got stuck with impurities and rubbish and all waters flowing down from the 8 storeys above us filled our house.

You know what is the worst part?? Both of them were still soundly asleep... until one of them gt up and discovered the situation. its too late........................ The waters already flooded the kitchen, the bedrooms and the living room. The house I m staying in is one of those older designs so the floors are not levelled. Therefore, the bedrooms were flooded with at least 1.5 - 2inches of water.

So what did Jason and I see when we were called back home??? A house flooded with dirty, oily water with some (yellow) oil deposits, clumps of hair, etc... Disgusting as you can imagine..

After waiting for hours for the plumber to come, the main pipe was finally cleared after an hour.

The torture then began...
1st - Clear the water by fetching pails of water from bedroom to the toilet
2nd - Use floor mats to absorb puddles of water from all rooms
3rd - Shifting and cleaning all the furniture to ensure no water remains there
4th - Mopping all floors with floor cleaner
5th - Mopping all floors with clean water
6th - Shifting back all furnitures and mopping the floor again
7th - Wash the kitchen

We cleaned until the wee hours in the am.. We suffered soreness in our body the following days..

Poor us!!

A new hp!!

2008-05-25T21:06:00.003+08:00

Bought a new phone HTC Touch Dual end April as my M1 contract was ending..

Paid only $48 for a $398 worth of phone (with 2yrs upgrade)

Y so cheap?? Coz I trade-in my Dopod for $150, M1 voucher $100 plus another M1 Promotion $100 for my plan. The promotion came about due to the ease of portability of the number which became effective in Apr/May 08.

The reasons i stayed with M1:

- Changed from per minute billing to per second billing.. That's alot of savings!

- Free outgoing calls for 3 friends/families M1 no

- Discounts on all bills for up to 5 lines under a name.. (from 25% - 35% off)

- Movie discounts at Cathay movie theatres..

The rest of the days in Taipei b4 we came back!!

2008-05-03T18:43:00.017+08:00

~Upon arrival at Taipei Songshan Airport!~

Oohhh... We are so excited!!! Can't wait to spend $$$!!!

It was raining heavily when we took to cab from airport. The roads were also crowded with vehicles as it was knock-off time in the evening for taiwan ppl. Took about 35-45 mins to reach hotel, i tink... haa...

Upon arrival at East Dragon Hotel, we made a reservation call to CashBox KTV (aka PartyWorld KTV) at the Zhong Xiao Dong Lu and started our little venture around XiMenDing b4 we took the train to our destination..

~ Taipei MRT (aka 捷運)

Seating arrangement slightly different ya...

Zuo bo again so its.....

Reach Cashbox KTV after a little shopping at SOGO..

~ Cashbox lobby~ So grand right?

But the rates are too expensive!!! Couldnt afford it.. But the staff was very courteous and nice.. She introduced a package for us where we can sing at XiMenDing Cashbox KTV.

The whole building belongs to Cashbox KTV!! Seems like taipei ppl reali like to sing ar...

Here is our room at XiMenDing Cashbox KTV. Spacious enough for 8-10 ppl leh.. Damn shiok!!

This little machine is for us to select the songs we want to sing, it even has a feature to rate your singing! While singing, all of us very "Jing Zhang"... Wahaa...

2007-11-24T19:03:00.000+08:00

What's worst that could happen???

Met with an accident early this afternoon. I was driving my mum and 2 of my younger sisters to Suntec City to watch my mum's idol, Chen Weilian.

Halfway through AYE towards CTE, I met with an accident involving 3 cars (including mine).

Here's what happen:
Was driving on the 1st lane, when a black merc benz infront of me braked suddenly. I did an emergency-brake too and (Phew!) managed to stop in time. However, after being stationery for only a few seconds, a black audi came and crashed onto the back of my car. The impact caused my car to surge forward and hit the black merc infront. Oh no.. All of us in the car were shocked when it happened in split seconds. Luckily, no one was injured.

The audi car owner was apologetic and offered to pay from his insurance co. I was so lucky that the accident was not caused by me.. Haa.. This experience reali taught me to b more careful when driving, and how to deal with such situation. (of coz i dun wish this to repeat again.. keke..)

When i saw my car bumper, my heart almost stopped. My beloved baby car of only a few months old was hurt. Sobz..... =(

As a new and inexperienced driver, I dun reali know what to do next. I juz called my hubby and do accordingly to his advises. Finally, the tow lorry came,brought me to the garage and got me a car to drive as the car requires about a week for repairs. The car was an auto-drive car but the size is much bigger. I was not confident enough to drive the car leh.. hahaa..

My poor car (cry cry cry..)

Dinner at Cafe Cartel..

Drove my sisters to IMM for a walk and dinner at Cafe Cartel..

Actually dun reali like that restaurant coz encountered some unpleasant experience with one of the staff.

Nevertheless, my cousin happened to work there as a part time waitress, so I decided to visit her as a surprise and to give the restuarant another chance. To my dismay, she worked morning shift that day.. Haiz... =)

But something interesting came up.. My younger sister, Joanne noticed that her ex-bf, Henry, was working there. So she was quite worried and excited at the same time.. Wahahaa.. Guessed she still have some feelings for him though.. and she kept peeking around for him.. I think her ex bf saw her as well and kept avoiding our table.. =) so funny.. anyway, my younger sister began to talk about her relationship with him in the pasts.. But I cant broadcast it, coz she will kill me!!! =D

This incident make our dinner so enjoyable and fun.. Haaa...

Phuket!!

2007-10-10T11:10:00.000+08:00

Our Phuket Trip!!

OUR FIRST DAY
On our way to airport.. Its 5am in the morning.. Look how tired he looked.. =P

All right, we were quite early, so had some breakfast at Han's..

Finally, we r on our way to the lovely island!! Phuket!!

Outside Phuket Airport

My two xiao ding dong buddy colleagues..

I regretted not gg for the shooting game.. Haiz... All of them looked like they reali enjoy the game...

Finally, we can check into our hotel.. i mean resort.. =)

We were checked into Deevana Resort and Spa along Patong Beach.. It is a nice resort.. I love it!

Preparing to go out and have fun..

This is the first time i drive this vehicle. There is an obstacle where we go down a slope which leads you to a small pool of muddy water. I went down too fast lo.. Got myself drenched with the muddy water... Eeekss!!

We played Go-Kart as well, but i didnt manage to take any pics.. i went round the course about 8 times. It was so fast.. But i was v lousy and caused alot of drivers almost lang ga.. wahaaa.. dun care.... =P

Hee.. I love the Patong beach. Though its waves are abit scary, not those I have seen in Spore. But it was fun playing with the waves... and the sand/ground under the water stays at knee to waist level although we r v far from the shore. Totally different from Spore beaches.

OUR 2ND DAY
Went to Let's Relax for a Full Body and Face massage.. I fell aslp.. Its too relaxing coz we had such a active day the day before..

Posing for the pics.. We wana b the dai yan ren, u noe.. so we can get free massages.. Haa..

The three "handsome" guys in my team.. =)

After the massage, the whole team went to PromThep Cape for a dinner from our big boss!!

We had some time for photo taking..

Me and my stupid faces..

I love this pic!! It is so beautiful...

Dinner!!

Adrian, our entertainer of the nite!!

The drunk man.. Haa...

Pace settlers of 2007.. We r the winners! Yeah!!!

OUR 3RD DAY (AKA LAST DAY..)

I like this.. I think it is called mango sticky rice.. V nice!!!

Foot massage.. A last one before we leave for Spore..

While waiting for our plane.. We were delayed for almost an hour coz of some technical problems on the plane.. Goodbye Phuket.. I miss ya!!

Cute babies

2007-09-24T12:28:00.001+08:00

Babies are so cute, aren't they? They bring love, joy and laughter to the family. It is just so soothing to see them laugh. Have been thinking when would I be ready for one..

But maybe not so soon as I have just started on my career.

I guess we need more time to consider if we really want a child in the family after all. Lots of factors to look into. But meanwhile let the nature takes it course. =)

2007-09-22T15:49:00.001+08:00

"It is said that when you wake up in the morning you have two choices. You can continue your dream in the bed, or you can get up and make your dream become true."

Yuan Xingjun --- China

Felt this is quite true and its motivating.. so I decided to share with u guys!! =)

2007-09-16T23:29:00.000+08:00

Had finished the storybook "Just Married" but not a really interesting book after all. I didnt even try to remember the author. Hee.. So bad, aren't me?

An introduction on this book:
Its about Emma who has got married to the love of her life, Joe, a very successful man who is almost perfect in everybody's eyes. But problems arose when she had to work shifts on her job as a nurse in a hospital and did not spend time with her husband. Having a child is also not in her mind at the moment. These upset her husband and mum-in-law.
Lots of conflicts began to surface and their marriage were clearly on the rocks. Emma almost had an affair with a guy she met at the hospital but managed to put the relationship into an end before it gets worst. Nevertheless, both tried to give in, in one way or another, and being supportive to each other. In the end, things started to get better and they revived their marriage.
Happy Ending =)

Verdict: The storyline is not bad except it may be abit too draggy and long winded, making it less interesting to hook you to the book. I skipped alot of parts that were not related to Emma and managed to finish the book by Fri before I could borrow another.
I learnt quite alot from this book as it reflects our lives as newly weds. Of course, we do have problems at times, but I believed we will not take each other for granted and treasure what we have with each other. Happy Marriage for us!! =)

On Sat, spent about 15mins in the bookshop and managed to find a book written by Stephanie Lehmann titled "Are You in the Mood?".
Status: finished 1/5 of the book and it is still captivating.. A good book for a start!! =D

2007-09-11T10:38:00.000+08:00

Watched the movie 'Ratatouille' with Lynn last Fri at Causeway point. It was the first time I had watched a movie with her though.

I guessed we had too much an expectation on the movie (due to feedbacks and reviews from friends), it came across as juz an above average movie (in another words - ok, hmm, ok lah).

We felt abit disgusted in some parts as there were thousands or millions rodents running about in the house of the old lady, and thereafter at the kitchen. Eeww!!

Overall rating: Cute, abit disgusted, nice story, although abit unrealistic =)

Movie ends about 4pm and we shopped around the shopping centre.

I borrowed a book by Sophie Kinsella titled 'Can you keep a secret' as introduced by Lynn.

I finished it within 2days! Wow, I couldnt stop myself not to read. It was a fantastic book.

Interesting and funny.

I went back on Monday to borrow another book 'Just Married'. I hoped it will be as nice as the previous one or maybe interesting. I guessed it suits my life as well. =)

2007-09-03T11:25:00.000+08:00

Went for a KTV session at JE KBOX on Sunday..

Here are some pics.. Enjoy.. =)

We r very jian (aka cheapskate).. buy green tea from NTUC so we dun need to order another drink in the KTV when we r thirsty.

The drinks are abt triple the price we can get outside leh.. Wahaaa.. Whatever is the reason, we r still very jian..

This pic we took so long to get it at the right position although Sheryl's beautiful legs were shown.
Worst still, Ms Sherilyn set her handphone camera to the timer mode but the timer did not start and we stared at the flashlight for 10 seconds with no pics were taken. =(
Our eyes started to see colours and shadows around the room.. Haa..

Cheeky Sheryl.. =D

Got myself really burned out from the sorching sun! Can't wait to go Sentosa again!!!!!!!

After dat, went to Orchard, Ichiban Boshi, to meet up with my cousin for dinner. Its a treat from me for her bday gift.

Luckily I was there an hour earlier, so I went to queue up at the restaurant while waiting for her. We had so much to catch up and could not stop talking.. Haa...

After the fulfilling dnr, we went to do some shopping. Went to Best Denki, Kinokuniya and Metro Paragon. After tat, I was deadbeat and decide to head home and rest for the day.
