What baby should do in Hongkong

2009-12-14T15:33:00.003+08:00

Hello baby, i dont know how to make it comprehensible for you, and i think a blogpost is the best. =)

Here you go, some of the yummy food i think baby shouldnt missed.

1)

Here, they are good for their dimsum, and hongkong has very yummy dimsum =D

Let me show u Bee.

Baby!!! I know u love dimsum, but when i go hk i dont eat them because i am always alone, or with friends that dont take it. In the centre picture, the food is called POLO BUN, one of my favourite food on earth.

how to get to this place? Address Shop 8, Taui Yuen Mansion Phase 2, 2-20 Kwong Wa Street (baby this is within walking distance from your place, try to locate Kwong Wa street on the map, and i am sure you can find it )

View Larger Map

2)

Hee baby, i choose this place because its babys favourite CURRY. Take a look

Address

click here to find google map
I cant find the english address, but i think google map is comprehensible enough =x

3)

Baby, and if i could only go HONGKONG for 1 hour, i will FLY to this place. i love love love the noodle and french toast (but if baby doesnt like pork liver, then perhaps this wont be a good choice!)

Look at this yummy food!

Baby i love this!!!! blehblehbleh.

JUMPING AROUND LIKE NUTTY!! If you wanna go this place, just ask for their specialties! KAYA FRENCH TOAST (its really really good) and PORK LIVER+beef combination noodle!

how to get there?
BY MTR, get down at SHAM SHUI PO STOP, exit B1, and walk down Pek Ho Street. You have to try recognising the chinese word. baby this is a very worth while miam miam.

Google map, please click here

4) This place serves MIAMMIAM eggtart ( also not sure if beebee likes EGGTART, but i love it to crazy bits. MIAMAMIAMMAM)

me me me (dont know how to rotate the picture)

Address

32 Lyndhurst Terrace, Central (i search very long for these place)

MTR to central, look for QUEENS STREET, walk alll the way to POTTINGER STREET, go up, and you will see LYNHURST terrace

I was searching high and low for a decent looking sling bag or backpack to bring to Korea
and I found it right here in my own house!
Goodness,
i was ransacking my mothers wardrobe for my missing pair of stocking when
TADA,
i found the mosttt amazing thing!! =D

I didnt know my mom had a braun Buffel bag??

So happpy! And i didnt forget to give my dahon bike abit
of publicity. hahas

2009-05-03T22:24:00.002+08:00

Hello!

I will be leaving for Seoul this Thursday! It will be a great GETAWAY from this crappy and unbearable (too) sunny island. Can you guys feel the heat?? The extreme scorching heat and naked sun rays make me wonder if my Spf 50+++ sunscreen could even tahan or not. I really cant afford more freckles to colonize my already freckled cheeks. Rar, they are seriously fugly.

Will be stopping over in Hongkong for a good 5 days as well. I cant wait to be embraced by cutehandsome clean-looking flawless guys, nice canto speaking people (though i cant understand a thing), awesome sweet mango desserts, milk pudding, almond paste, authentic herbal jelly, egg TART (omg) and manymany more.. And I cant wait to step into H&M.

I am setting aside quite a fair bit of money for shopping and my mom has already started reminding me not to splurge impulsively and to only buy things i need (oh wells, i seldom buy things that i do not need anyways or at least i think =X)

Oh, people have been asking if i am worried about the porkie flu....Haha, seriously i am more worried about getting lost there for i am never good at direction! hee, so, 全靠你了 miss goh. =X

---

All these hustle and bustle have kinda pushed reality to a tiny obscured corner of my brain (which i am still pretty enjoying).. But once in awhile the reality do slipped out to haunt me!

Yes, i need to swiftly find a decent job!

rar.. Yes yes yes, I pretty much under-estimated the cost of this grad trip! I was thinking of hmm $1.5 but in the end that was totally and absolutely unfeasible! What was i thinking back then?? A more realistic estimation would be around $2.5 k, considering the fact that we will still be spending 5 days in HK! rar.

$2.5k... Thats hmm, 80% of my savings. So, I would have about $500 (after adding my awfullyrottenchocs pay for April- I quitted, so this is the last pay slip!) to last me till I land myself a joB.

And to make things worse, i freaking screwed up and failed my driving.

omg, so that remaining $500 will be needed for my retest(s)! I have to somehow find a perm job/adhoc assignment or whatsoever to tide me through..... =(

How?

Worst come to worst, if all things fail, i will propose for a stimulus package from mr lo.
not bad ar the idea..

Oh yeh, u guys can also donate some money to me.

So message me if you need my bank account details. hehe =)

Hey my surname aint sucked.

2009-04-17T09:11:00.006+08:00

So i heard my name appear in this weeks Awfullyawfulrottencakeshop retail meeting.
Strangely. I think they got my name wrongly.
Hey, I am Liyi (Tan), not Liyi Sucked.
Thank you LUshit, for insulting my family name.

So what happened? What happened so badly that I warranted a sucked
behind my name.
I tell you, its darn serious, because i tried to knock off 10mins after closing
when i am told i am only supposed to leave 30mins after closing
even when i have done everything
I am just supposed to stay in the shop and idle
even when i have done everything.
Oh my, thats darn fucking serious. I am such a defiant.
I ought to be shot. I ought to be renamed as Liyi Sucked instead.

darn u LuSHit.

I need to buy that dress.

unprecedented comment!

2009-04-16T11:09:00.005+08:00

miracle!
cj actually commented a
“very nice, i like the second piece”
when i showed him two pretty dresses i chanced upon
(hes inclined to giving ridiculous comments like
“why u wanna wear like flintstone” and etc) .

So i reckon the second piece MUST BE really nice.

i want.

dying esteem

2009-04-04T12:03:00.003+08:00

Am i just too sensitive;
Or is the world getting more blatant?
How can i turn a deaf ear to things i ought not to listen,
filter out all the notsosubtle criticism,
ignore that thud in my heart
and take everything with a pinch of salt.

How can i master the skill to live my life without a care.
You guys teach me.

2009-04-02T00:16:00.000+08:00

.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,

damn pissed.

2009-03-15T00:09:00.002+08:00

Freaking PISSED.
Was on my way home on the bus just now when this chao indian man infront of me turned and look at my youfreakingknowwhere.
I freaking saw his eyes grew about twice larger and his mouth formed an 0 shape like machiam he found gold on the floor.
It took him 3 seconds to realised i was staring right back at him with an expression full of disgust and he quickly turned away.
Thats not what i am pissed of. Coz normal guys would have felt super abashed after getting caught for staring.
But this chao indian man turned right back again.
I was freaking pissed I pointed my middle finger right back at him.
Worse still, i think the whole bus caught me doing that without knowing the reason behind it.

I got off the bus and felt ashamed of myself for pointing my mid finger and decided to call CJ who is now at Manila enjoying himself at some atas HOTEL.
First call, no one picked up.
Second call, he gupped my call.
Third call, a woman voice said hello.
I pulled my handphone off my ear and stared at the screen. yeah. Correct, its CJs number. So why is it a woman on the phone.

The first thing that came into my mind was perhaps the line got mixed up.
but almost immediately my mind started to go wild and thought he might have brought a woman back into the hotel and that woman picked up the call while he was in a shower (like you know typical channel 8 shows).

So what do u think happened?

(still damn pissed)

Green is the new pink bikeathon

2009-02-17T00:32:00.003+08:00

Heres what i am gonna blog about.

HAND MADE EXHIBITION PANELS!

sya, xy and I busy setting up the panel at marine parade library

May i proudly present to you (dash) Eastern Coastal Park Connector network photo exhibition! the front.

the back.

We built the panel from deckos, cloth and lotsa twine! And with the (only) skill I acquired from GG, we secured everything together with a few marvellous hitches here and there... and out came a standing panel which would have cost us a friggin 1k if we have rented it instead.

oh my gosh. we are geniuses, arent we?

So come down and visit us at marine parade library this weekend!! We will be stationing there. or next week at Bedok Library, and the following at tampines lib!

Most importantly, come down for our bike(dash)a(dash)thon!

yeh. have a feeling 2009 will be a good one. And i am gonna slack for my FYP from now on coz no matter what grade i get for it i will still be stuck with a second lower (not intended for xy, geok and sya)!

so i shall fret not about results and have a real Happy new year!
haha.

2008-12-13T21:55:00.021+08:00

it has been more than awhile since i attended a wedding dinner.

Here. gosh i actually managed to dig the photo out

Amanda, Yunwen and I with a bunch of guys @ Mr Teas wedding 2 years back. or is it 3? We are at the side, the three black ones by the way. And Mr Tea is the one in black as well.

This time round, its bernards wedding. Can you spot the three of us again? Have we like totally deteriorated and grew old and haggard over the years; or have we blossomed into fine and beautiful women? haha

All of us were waitresses from Ni Hon Shu. By the way, Bernard was one of the 4 bosses and Mr Tea was our most beloved regular customer. But now, its no more boss or customer, we have all became friends! =)

all of us with bernard

with manda.was reminiscing how we would steal and down a few cups of choya when the bosses werent looking, stealing and eating cherries and alot moree......

with my dearest cousin. We were more blatant then.. Like audaciously popping left over edamane into our mouth while clearing the dishes.. gosh. But those were fun days =)

with bloopbloop cam whoring in the toilet.

with damien, my fav boss =D. Father of three and the perfect model of an ideal husband.

gosh, dug out more photos!

Patronised Nihonshu as customer. with raymond, mr teas bestfren i supposed.

with amanda.

and my uniform. always got tripped by that brown thingy.

raos.

2008-11-25T23:06:00.001+08:00

this should be more user friendly.

2008-11-22T22:32:00.004+08:00

so thats our issue.
An issue that was never resolved, and in my opinion, will never be resolved.
i wanted to just charge at him,
tell him that by simply dismissing my temperament is nv going to work.
But i know its pointless.

Oh yeh. i have learnt (at least abit) to tell him why i am upset or angry over certain stuffs. I have opened up alot but i guess this doesnt work for us as well.

I dont see why he needs to categorize things under the narrow definition of right and wrong.
That is, if you are wrong, you should apologise, and if you think you are right, then wait for an apology. Sometimes, or rather most of the time, things are not about who are at fault, but about how feelings are conveyed.

An innocent conversation can escalate into an an argument and into a full blown fight?
Really? We have never fought.
And thats the thing that is killing me.
And he will nv understand what i meant by this.

2008-11-17T23:34:00.000+08:00

my gosh, whats with this obiang blogskin

2008-11-17T23:10:00.002+08:00

I am feeling fat.
And i know its NOT ONLY a feeling.
I am putting on weight again!!
Gah i hate it, although I (open) secretly quite dig exam period, i hate the fact that i would put on weighttt
Oh wells, and somehow my body has some tremendous capacity to retain alot alot alot of water (somewhere) before my mens.
So here i am, made up of the newly formed fats + retained water.

I am dying!
And i dont have a good feeling on todays paper ( GET OVER IT, IT DOESNT AFFECT ANYTHING)
GAG but at the very least its freaking over.
so now I am left with Crisis management and Forensic Science which i am aiming for an A+. haha hahaha

And I shall start on a strict diet + workouts after exams! I swear! Oh and let my fingernails grow again. They havent been growing for more than a year.

For now, i shall do some shopping online~~~~

2008-11-13T11:37:00.003+08:00

Within the span of a week, my front door was chained up,
splashed with dark black paint
and further decorated with bold red streaks just last night (minutes after we cleaned up the black ugly splashes).

Whats the problem with these blindsharks?
Cmon, look carefully at the unit number freak!
OR are you guys trying to use peer pressure to on our neighbour?
My gosh its not working cant you seee?!

So please stop disturbing us!
And stop adding colours to my shoes!

Nothingness

2008-09-19T23:20:00.006+08:00

The much sort after one week break is finally here....

Actually, its not really that much needed, considering the fact that i haven't been doing much except for the past week, for i practically squeezed 6 weeks of readings into 2 days. And 8 hours 45 minutes after a disastrous test, which made up 40% of my final grade ( hallelujah), I am still very much in a daze.

Kill me, i have a feeling i will cushion the cohort again like what i cleverly did for my comm history.

Oh wells, i do not care a hoot about my grades. I do not i do not i do not i do not.

And I am still very much hating the school by the way, and it makes me wonder why it wasnt like this in the past. Perhaps its the kind of work we did when we were (2 years) younger, like this:

Isnt this cool..? I made this with Geok and we were damn proud of it. I think I can go on all my life doing this, or this:

(freak, i got goosebumps outbreak just watching this! And i am having a fierce debate with myself now whether to embed it in my blog. So if you get to see the video, you know who won.)

Anyway, i can't believe it,but all i did for that proj was act. gosh, am i guilty.

And now that i think of it, i haven't done anything worth mentioning for the past 3 years, have i? And i doubt so for the remaining 3/4 year as well. freak, and the years after the next 3/4 year.

man, what am I gonna do for the rest of my life.

- freaking quart life crisis ( that has been going on for awhile).

2008-09-17T18:28:00.003+08:00

i am so tempted to go for Work and Travel USA next year.
Should I should I not??

2008-08-11T17:21:00.002+08:00

school hasn't really started and i am already hating it.
I hate having to travel 3.5 hours a day on trains cramp-packed with disgusting multi-nations.
I hate my sucky 5 days-week timetable.
I hate my course-mates
I hate readings

and if i have to face all these 5 days a week, how can i not hate my life.
Get me out of this country please.

2008-08-06T18:48:00.003+08:00

The lump in my throat was so huge it almost killed me.
I can't cope with another of that, please.
I hope i have expressed myself clearly,
And that what i said have not been misunderstood.

please..

My germ trip in a post!

2008-07-30T23:08:00.020+08:00

Before the photos rust in my com, i shall once and for all blog on my two weeks trip in this post. =)

Have posted a few photos on Freiburg, Lake Contanz and the Rheinfall in my previous entry, here's a few more t0 beef up this section of my trip!

The super excited me on an empty road!

Yey, my first excursion to another part of Germany!

And on the really comfy and spacious train.
Very unlike Singapore's. bleh

The upstream of the Rheinfall.
Ideal place to live in eh.

On to Freiburg!

The Bachle that runs throughout the city centre.

uber cooling!!! love it!

Yummilicious ice-cream ( much needed!) in front of the Munster =)

Munster with its gothic archi (and a tiny plane!).

The interior of Munster.

Up on the Munster

And the old citygate of Freiburg

Finally.... The unique hostel to rest our sore body that weekend.

The light house hostel at Lake Contanz

With the awesome view at the top floor.

Solo trip to Heidelberg

With only me for myself during weekdays, I ventured out to somewhere near to walldorf- Heidelberg!
So much so much in a lil quaint town. Castle, SHOPPING, river... woo.

I reached so early that day the street was almost empty!

A stark contrast to what i saw in the afternoon when i got down from the castle.

The castle

View from the castle garden.
Beautiful river Neckar

Trying hard to take a pic with the castle- the agony of travelling alone! =(

The sliced up tower. I found it real intriguing! If only i could traverse the barrier and climb into this structure.....

People were sooo kind they volunteered
to take pictures for me. yeh, so now a decent pic with me.

After spending 4 hours touring my very first castle, BY MYSELF,
i went down to the streets which were bustling with life!

Picture taken from Philosophenweg.

Hmm love Heidelberg. But that trip had me stay at home for the rest of the week due to a badbad infection. bah

And so after being a sick girl for 3-4 days, I was so excited when i recovered in time to go for my Koln trip! yiiwiie!

Tah-dah! I most magnificent structure i've ever seen in my life THUS far- the Dom.

Cj was practically sprawling on the ground to take this pic.

The interior. I want to get married HERE.

Standing on top of magnificent thingy that took
over 600 years to complete. wow.

Still on top.

On top of another building overlooking the Dom!

=)

And then it was dinner timee!!!

The famous famous kolsh beer. I thought it taste weird though.

Wurst + Sauerkraut + mash potatoe. The short black one, which is liver sausage if i rem correctly, tasted like shit.

-_-" It tasted like raw pig.

The sun was finally setting.... Nicey

My turn to sprawl on the floor!
But look at what the sun did on the Dom. Awesomeness.

And when the sky finally darkened,
our camera did NO justice to what stood high and mighty in front of us.

Next morning we left Koln and headed to St Goar for the castle! My second castle!

St Goar- a cozy lil town.

Couldnt possibly conquer a castle with our famished stomachs.. So lunch at
a restaurant in the castle!

And the alfresco overlooked the Rhine river!

Even the bee joined us.

YUMMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy and satisfied. =)

The castle at St Goar is soo soo sooo cool! EVERY nooks and crannies of it could be explored! I only remember seeing one " do not enter" sign because it was really dark and dangerous there. We gave some of the secret passage ways a miss because it was pitch dark and we didnt bring a torch along! What a pity!

yey. On to exploring!

Next- to Venice~

not cheap at all.

Bridge of sigh.

Then its home sweet home. Not sweet at all though. BRING ME BACK. hee

Walldorf

2008-07-02T17:37:00.005+08:00

This little town I am in

I find lotsa joy exploring this tiny town. hee

I am certain gingerbreadman lives in there

And another one.

And this is the room we stay in:

with toast..

delicious looking bahh, with button mushrooms. yumm

Oh yar, a video of some strange looking bugs that can be found everywhere here.

The Dom

Land of bread and beer

2008-06-25T15:37:00.006+08:00

woots. I am staying in today so taking the chance to provide some updates before i hit the book.

Germany is cool. I love the fairy-talish houses that make me feel like i am a character in Enid Blyton's book. I love the cobalt streets and attic roofs. I love the authentic looking churches with stained glass window, innumerous sculptures, clock tower and priest-looking priest (yeh, not those held in some conventional hall back home in S'pore (excl the priest, they still look authentic actually)).

Love the way the Germans treat beer like water/tea/coffee and the way their dig carbo-ridden pretzels/pasta/pizza.

By the way, i am staying in this really small and obscured town which would be easily forgotten if not for the SAP main. I find it hard to describe, but this place gives me an entirely different feeling from the other towns i went to- so cozy and ... gosh i will let the pictures tell the story once i get hold of them. so yeh wait for the next entry please!

Touched down on Friday Night and went out to the Rheinfall, Lake Contanz and Freiburg (oh and i am to marry a freiburger!) over the weekend.

(I don't have access to lotsa photos, so just some bit to make do for the moment)

Schaffhausen City, Northen Switzerland. One thing i like about Germany is
the absence of the bobbing head phenomenon!

The Rheinfall- the largest plain waterfall in Europe

Its quite nice but not as spectacular as i thought it to be.

yeh, another view.

We took the walking track back to Schaffhausen along the the river.
Look at those houses. Gosh, aint it like an idyllic place to stay?

Took a train (theres no crowd on trains as well, how cool??) to Lake constanz afterwards and found our hostel which is an ulu pandan light house-converted tower.

TAH DAH! I almost puked mozarella cheese when this tower came into view.
And guess what, theres no lift, and i got a room on the 8th floor.

The interior of the dorm which i shared with some Americans.

And my dinner-food that i couldnt help but to buy when i got into their supermarket for the first time. I was so freaking excited that i was acting like a dot.
But how could I not??? The mozzerella cheese costs 50 cents euros?!?!?!?!?! And thats equivalent to the fee one needs to pay to get into a macs toilet.. gosh.
I paid 8 sing for that pack just a few days ago.
Yoghurt at 25 cents Euros. coolest shites.

nway, the stupid hostel locked people out at 10PM broad daylight! We had a small misadventure that night when we missed our stop and alighted at the next one which was hell far away. Fortunately and unfortunately, some really frenly German saw that we missed our stop and pointed out a short-cut path to the tower. Alas, we got freaking lost in the woods (with super super authentic houses it was a shame i couldnt stop and admire) and very nearly missed the curfew. Had a good workout trashing about in the woods though. =X

Next day was Freiburg, a town just next to the famous blackforest.

These canals, which is used as irrigation channels in medieval time, can be found all over the old town.

The water is numbly cold and i couldnt helped but to play abit with it. I even stepped into it although rumours said that those who stepped into the canals would have to stay in freiburg and marry a Freiburger. gosh so funny.

The Munster. Real nice church, cant wait to see the one in Koln. =D

and the interior. Got to climb up to see the mechanics of the bells as well.

and lastly, blackforest cake! Almost missed it-its heavenlicious.

thats all for the moment, will post more pics to beef up this post.
And the next will be on my solo day trip to heiderburg.

2008-06-20T13:08:00.002+08:00

I am so not fated to take Singapore Air.
The first time i took, i had chronic stomach ache.

And my stomach is churning like a mad mill now. o u c h.

nway, just checked out the YSL Touche Eclat Radiant Concealer here. Its selling at 58 bucks out there, and only at 85 for 2 at duty free =DDD

nyone wanna share with me please let me know!

uber random.

2008-06-19T10:07:00.003+08:00

Gosh, i have to get today and the first part of tomorrow done with before i could enjoy a good slumber.

A part of my dreams last night revolved about having numb fingers/no internet connection/my com hangs when 1:30 comes and i am supposed to do subject registration.

The other part revolved about not being able to arrive at the airport on time tomr/forgetting to bring my (expired) passport/broken and spilling luggage.........

Blah i am being so paranoid i couldnt sleep the whole fucking night and the dreams just kept buzzing over and over endlessly in my head that i wished for daylight every other minute.

AND i am supposed to start packing my luggage now but i can't! My whole mind is preoccupied with subject registration. And its only like 10:20 now. bah.

nway received cute ugly uber-belated birthday prezzies. haha

oh my god. A dung.

teehee, gingy chain.

2008-06-08T16:17:00.005+08:00

Its weird to realise that i had spent two Sundays with the Los at the absence of my dearest.

Hopped onto the Singapore's flyer this morning with the Los and my mom.
Was a tad scared - like oh man, meet the parents session?!- but my worries were superfluous as it turned out that they were quite chummy. oh wells

Past week was spent idling in the office, the gym and meeting up with friends. Dorothy returned from Japan and Hong Kong with good buys for me! Thanks sweet~

Yeyie! Kose white mask that i have always wanted, sekkisui (whitening??) mask
and pineapple tarts from HK. yey! love goodies.

Had lunch at Ajisen Ramen. I am secretly in love with the vege ramen
though 3/4 of the ramen would usually be left untouched. Love the crunchy corn and chewy enoki!

doro.

mee. puipui already. kns

Finally on Singapore's flyer this morning. Nothing spectacular, could see alot of towering cranes though since Marina Bay Sands is in the midst of constructions. Other than fireworks during NDP, F1 races and the likes that the flyer could lean on, it itself does not exudes much charm, at least in my view.

that orange patch is my ideal home. teehee

we are ascending!

=)

mmum

really sweet alex with really cute attire. ( teehee, her bday pressie from me)

The grandma with the babies. Angus had an itchy nose this morning.

yeh just to prove my point.

From some observations, i found that lil Angus finds joy when he gets to roam about on his tiny feet.

Totally engrossed.
"Dad, see theres tiny people and houses down there!"

hmm.

The carnival under the flyer got my mom hooked on.

the prize she got for the game in the background.

Yet another game of darts.

The adults queuing up for games. And seriously, they were discussing some strategies.
haha amusing.

And in the end, she got herself 6 prizes, in which she kept three and gave the rest to the kids.

By the way, one last week of internship!!!
Gosh Gosh Gosh Gosh GOsh!

Teehee, with the jump of just an entry, June is here!
Count down 9 days to the emancipation of desk-bound-skin drying-fats accumulating-b*tch-filled- office life. cool shites.
Its a pleasure seeing how heavily my calender is crossed out towards the box highlighted in pink, with the words - end of internship.

Haven't been able to comfortably sit down and surf/blog for very very long. With the goddess at home, i am ripped of lights and space after 10pm. So i coud only plonk myself to sleep. Thats hows my life have been for the past 1 month.

wells, lets have some updates.

Had a company event at fourseasons last Friday. Finally one with photos taken after like almost a dozen previous team lunches. Thats one of the perks i get working at webieshandwiee- to pose as taitais in atas restaurants and hotels, eating with half a table of genuine atas kids and another half just like a poser like me (aka rongshan).

while waiting for the latebirds, sya and I had some "private time" in the toilet.

(all these would be otherwise impossible out there. Interns are supposed to be prim and proper. yeh.)

the corporate team with many missing.

The really really nice Hooi Hoon.

rs, sam and hannah

The prim and proper syasya and i

Sunday was Alexes' and Angus's 1 year old birthday party.
Lets see how they have blossomed, from tiny half asleep creatures, into the two running kiddos today.

Very tiny Angus

Very Tiny alex

Half year old. my gosh super cute.

and the one year old Angus. Duper cute =D

And princess Alex.

Food for 12? I dont think so. this could easily feed a herd of hungry cows.

And the cake.

chaotic moments.

Angus " hurry, i just want to eat ok"

yummmy

creamy angus

oo. heavenly mango cake.

the symbolic dyed eggs

their prezzie from me from lifebaby.
cost me a tiny bomb

if cancer could be cured by some health supplements,
then whats the fucking use of the doctors.

We are not talking about a cold here okay.
So stop instigating him.

2008-04-23T22:14:00.002+08:00

Life's been bad.
The past week reeked of death and illnesses.
Feel so overcasted.
I am sick of it.

2008-04-20T23:11:00.002+08:00

That piece of news got me thinking the whole night.
So shocking, so hard to digest.

It will be hard at work tomr.
sigh

2008-04-01T22:53:00.003+08:00

you could slog your way through in your office, doing i-dont-know-what-you-are-doing, sparing me a message or two when you feel like it;

You could drop me a message and off the phone, sleep your night through and dismiss the fact that i was left brooding to myself.

You are so plain selfish.

2008-03-31T22:32:00.005+08:00

March passed like that, uneventful and extremely tiring.

Monday to Friday is always a dread, needless to say.
But surprisingly i found myself looking forward to Saturdays, no matter how blah customers/management can get.

love to work with miss goh though we always tio shit working together.

reflection off the fridge.

cant help but to camwhore with this huge bday cake which i bet the
birthday ahpek/ahmah wouldnt eat.

2008-03-09T22:55:00.014+08:00

I have been wanting to blog since forever but my com was down. Not much better now actually, perhaps its still in its healing process. I shall give it a bit more time.

Really outdated but i shall blog about my 22nd birthday. hah.

Had the audacity to disappear half a day on the 21st feb. But at the very least i still turned up half a day at work ok. gahs!

They had a lil surprise for me in the office. Tiramisu cake from RIVE. its super uber yummy.

OH YAR, but before i talk about that, I had a pre-bday celebration before that with my sec school girlies at Sun with MooN! Ate till i went mad that few days.

Lunch was cheap and good because of the lunch special! and we had almost the whole place
to ourselves.

My set! Soba + jap rice set! carbo overload man.

WAH! cant wait.This cheesy hotate (scallop) was to die for.

In the end still had complimentary green tea icecream.

Night @ Ricetable with sya, xy, geok and val:

I was 9/5 full when i stepped into Ricetable that night. Yes, apparently from the soba, rice, cheesy hotate and icecream feast in the afternoon with my cousin. I was totally not ready for the BUFFET. urgh, so i actually asked the waiter if i could order ala carte but still sit together with my friends. He was nice enough to say yes but said they would be observing me. Weird to be stared at the whole night right? So i went for the buffet despite of my overflowing stomach.

Val and I with tonnes of food.

xy and hungry syasya (she did not have lunch that day just for the buffet!!!)~

formal geok and i

and Geok with her trademark pose. totally tak glam. =|

and myself, hee =D

the food that was hard for me to savour that night.

hmm wonder whats wrong with the satay.

And just as i my stomach was about to explode, the waiter came out with.....

Rive chocolate CAKE!

"Leap Year has been the traditional time that women can propose marriage. In many of today's cultures, it is okay for a woman to propose marriage to a man. Society doesn't look down on such women. However, that hasn't always been the case. When the rules of courtship were stricter, women were only allowed to pop the question on one day every four years. That day was February 29th. "

Will you marry me Mr Lo.

I miss you

2008-02-25T18:55:00.001+08:00

i wonder why i need to go through this.

why?

2008-02-21T12:37:00.001+08:00

I should have been a nicer girl.

2008-02-14T22:50:00.002+08:00

Piles of shit at hand now.
I need to clean them one by one.

Chinese New Year 2008

2008-02-11T20:19:00.000+08:00

Chinese New year 2008 has been a joyous one thus far. Was especially excited this year as I could enjoy a decently long break from work, doubled up with cj's (short) return.

Like past years, mom would bake her own pineapple tarts, and i would be her assistant. =D
And as usual, I would irritate my mom with strange shapes and designs.

Coolness right. A basket of truffles =)

And smiley face.

and pineapple shapes; and a seemingly obscene looking one.

The end product minus the funny shapes which are packed
separately, and specially for cj.

Its a tradition for my family to celebrate cny in Malaysia. True enough, its really more fun and vibrant over there than in Singapore with the fire crackers and all. Abit quieter this year though. Thought i was the only one feeling that way but apparently not. Perhaps yunwen and family wasnt around and hence the difference, perhaps it was the absence of grandpa - i dont know.

Anyway this is the very place i spent my cny days in:

Yeh here it is. I spent 21 years of cny days here.

welcome in =D

Spot the difference yunwen!! Do you even know where this is?? haa

Spot the difference again Yunwenn!!

young cousie having fun with cj while he acted like a statue.

Lotsa durians in the garden!

Taking photos and feeding the mozzies.

--

Had a fair share of fun back in Singapore as well. And not forgetting seeing and hugging the lil cuties that i missed so so so much ( more than i missed their uncle).

@ no signboard seafood restaurant with the lil kids. They have grown up havent they?

So sweet of Angus to sit there by himself, eating quietly...

he doesnt like his uncle!

and he's super distracted by a doggie tt was wearing cheongsum.

--

And lastly, spent Sunday Night at Cafe Del Mar.

Cj's company event.

Its really a nice and relaxing place to enjoy the sea breeze, good food and drinks with a few good friends. Too bad i didnt know anyone there and had to act demure, or else it would be a cool night chilling out.

.
.
.

And so mrLo had to leave today yet again, starting another round of waiting. GAH, go eat shit.

And we totally didnt plan the above.

SEEYA. and thanks to xiangyi, i had this made for cj.

Hee had to make this in advance since he wont be around for
Vday and 26th Feb.

Triple bluesss.

2008-02-11T12:38:00.000+08:00

Dying from Monday Blues, back-from-hols blues and you-leaving-again blues.
I am turning into a shade of purple.

PS - please remind me to pay my Singtel bill.

my sweetest 21st present

2008-01-29T17:54:00.000+08:00

yea, the extraction of my wisdom tooth that had caused the misalignment of my only perfect possession has given me two days of MC from boring work. Geok said i should extract next week instead.So i would have one whole stretch of holidays. Didnt thought of that.

So i spent the whole frricking day packing my wardrobe. It was in a total mess i tell YOU. And i bought so MUCH clothes nowadays my wardrobe is seriously bursting.

But among all the mess i found a sweeet lil thing given by a sweet lil person during my 21st birthday last year. I was in such a rush after the party ( for my beijing trip) that i didnt even have the time to take a good look at all my prezzies.

So this is it. A sweet lil kiddish packaging

when opened, its a rusty lil hellokitty metal box.

and out came a lil blue cross keychain inside the rusty box.

HAHAHA. so CUTE omg. And i guess all these came from some kiddish treasure box- like how i had one when i was a kid, where i kept all the toys and stuffs that i hearted. Aww, what a sweet lil prezzie =D

you sweet thing, my loveliest lil cousie.

updates

2008-01-27T23:31:00.000+08:00

Dorothy just smsed me saying " does YOUR hank**n stay in hall? he queuing up for 199 now"

haha didnt know he is still mine.
TRUTH TO BE TOLD, he was never mine. Haha. Bah. Damn.

Funny thing I still get voluntary informant telling me his whereabouts. Its quite funny. Ah haa.
whatever.

Anywayy, I should start blogging before this place turns into a graveyard.

?weber sandwich?

Life theres still the same. Nothing much. No longer willing to ask for jobs since they are either irrelevant or not to my liking. And everyday i still hear us intern on the phone, saying things like " hi i would like to know if you have any mandarin orange packages?", " I would like to hold a meeting in your hotel, can i have a quotation", " May i know the name of your CEO?" and " uh no no, (stifled laughter) webershanD*wick, not sandwich" kinda thing.
But well, its still not that bad. I heart stress-less life.

nway, heres the office:

Typical office.

Deana and syaa~

View out there~

ME and my "smart CASUAL" attire.

C H E W E Y!!

Finally presenting to YOU, the much awaited PRAWNKING (PUI)

HEEE. Hey Prawn King, i am Miss Universe, your posture damn cool.

Our catch thanks to the pro uncle who taught us the correct techniques to prawning.
The catch to prawning is to JERK!

Prawn king and prawn princess.

Damn shiok!

Mom preparing the meal. Yum Yum =)

Wennn, that is the prawn king. What say you? cute not?
(photo taken during a hilarious outing)

And Next Up! AwF*llychOcoL*ate, so awful you cant resist it.

Taken during one of the three days training.

the office.

to be awfuLL*chOc* girl. Teehee!

damn cock can! no wonder they wanted to give us grooming session. heehee

another cock one. haha had to wake up at 7 that morning. So yeah couldnt bother to put colour on my face. Hee and so anyway, we promised we would look better the next day!

haa~ next day. abit more colour. (hogsbin in the making)
Showed my mom the pic just now and this is exactly what she said " so ugly you still dont wanna delete this photo." damn it. whatever.

After 2 WHOLE days training in the office last weekends.
We finally had a real taste of being a awfuLLYchO* girl yesterday. haa

i want only.. awfu*lly chO*colate

hee. taken in the vivo toilet. eh i look demure right????

the vivo outlet. =)

beautiful cake with buttercream wordings.

It was quite fun but uber tiring. My right arm is aching due to the over scooping of icecream.
Xianggyi, did you take photo of yourself in the uniform?
I want to seeee =D

and finally, the essence of the month:

ET came into the office and told me i have a package at the recept desk. Here it is .....

a nice bouquet of unfortunate smelling roses.
Thanks =)

2008-01-25T23:56:00.000+08:00

my god i am damn disgusted. Xiang Yi and I actually witnessed a couple letting their 2 year old kid pee at the mrt platform! MRT platform i tell you. And its not hard to guess, they are PRCS!
They are so gonna come here and dilute everything that we have and make us into a lil china.

I tell you i am uber disgusted. Why are they allowed here??????
I think sooner or later i will hear and see people spitting on the road. Eww.

Someone please do something about this. GAH

happy prawns

2008-01-12T09:37:00.000+08:00

Went prawning again yesterday but this time with xy.
Caught 20+ happy prawns altogether.
Quite pro eh?

Not sure if the prawns felt cheated
At least not for long i think?
Xy said they (she and huiyun) hear a high pitch squeak when they dropped the prawns on the bbq pit.
At least i know they (the prawns) could feel the pain.

And i think i felt as painful as them last night.

2008-01-08T22:38:00.000+08:00

my fav.

NU2

2008-01-07T13:17:00.000+08:00

something has apparently happened to my taste buds.
Milk tastes like raw cow to me now.
And Sya just asked me how i know how cow tastes like.
Okay.
I guess they taste like how they smell.
You know the cow dung kinda thing you always get in the zoo when you are near the cows.
Thats how milk taste like to me now.
i feel like puking.

And my blog is overwhelmed with sad posts.
I dont think anyone would like to read them unless she/he is looking for, you know, i dont know.
owells, everythings in blue somemore.

So from now on.
Anything sad - into my diary ( my diary is fucking deprived because of the convenience of posting online)
Anything happy- up on blog ( Though this has served me well as a ranting vehicle)

yeh, thats it.

Oh i love the new name i have for xiangyi.
Xiang-gU. sounds unglam and irrelevant. ahaha. apt on her =D
OH and i went prawning.

( more on prawning next post and my saddistic nature)

Resent

2008-01-05T23:11:00.000+08:00

Its weird how I didnt yelp in excitement at the sight of it- a blackberry.
Its even weirder when i didnt stir at the mention of a possible trip to bali.
They just made my throat sorer.

Cant bring myself to accept the very thing that has caused me this much turmoil.

Owells, but how can i blame it (yes precisely when its just an it)?

I am becoming a bitter god.

2008-01-03T22:30:00.000+08:00

webering is not that bad, really.
its just a lil boring, and thats nothing ( i have been bored outta my mind before)
just that its really dry, and that stretches the elastic day even longer.

Marked many dates in the month of feb on my calender.
holidays, celebratory moments..
supposedly and hopefully.
I will still look forward.

on a happier note,
theres something definite and certain for me to look forward to next week.
! buffet!

owells,
off to bed.
extra early morning tomor.
nite, bad dreams.

2008-01-02T21:12:00.000+08:00

Its at times(rare) when i hope to get disapproved or condemned, and what i got is sure/okay/go ahead that i feel like banging the wall and just die.

2007-12-23T23:31:00.000+08:00

fat.

2007-12-22T23:45:00.000+08:00

Recently, i got to know myself a tad better. Its weird how you have been living with this very person for 21 years and yet you still do not know her well. Or perhaps i have changed, just that i didnt realised or whatever, I dont know.

And to tell the truth, i am not particularly proud of what i have discovered. Because it made me realise what a selfish, possessive, unreasonable, and oh not understanding ( according to someone) person i am.

And you know what, I dont mind being selfish, possessive, unreasonable and so not understanding if they are not the very things i am so against of. Because i cant stand when each time i execute my selfishness, possessiveness, unreasonableness and whats not, there's another part of me that screams " fuck you bitch" right back at my face.

And to tell you the truth again, I hate being scolded in that way, by myself . So the only thing i can do when i feel the surge of selfishness, possessiveness and unreasonableness rising in me, i fight them back. Its a tough battle that results in half watery eyes that i will pass off as a yawn ( or wipe off with a well-versed surreptitious sweep), fucking sore throat, speech impairment, self pity and etc...

Okay, to be straighter to the point, i am experiencing a very strong sense of helplessness: A feeling of not being able to manage. Its the fucking oh my god, what can i do when life presents you with no choice.

i hate my life.

2007-12-21T12:29:00.000+08:00

arr. i miss beijing.

fly me back.

2007-12-19T23:31:00.000+08:00

oh my god. Its the night.

its an impending doom.

2007-12-19T00:58:00.000+08:00

I guess a simple "oh yar, i have been through that" from anyone can bring me comfort.
Because lately, i found myself seeking solace in such statements.

But no no, i dont get them often, or rather never.
Perhaps i nv said enough to elicit such response from them.
Or rather, i have been downing too much myself that they pretty much got manifested into something both hurtful for me and others.

And yes, i saw that coming.
Slowly, but surely, it will seep into us like poison.
Until we have no energy to retaliate.

and then its vittles

2007-12-13T23:49:00.000+08:00

Everyone seems uber busy this hols. Be it busy with the boyfriend, or busy uh, okay everyone is just busy with their boyfriends. KNN, i shall be busy with mine too.

And everyday's just a food hunting day for me. So yesterday( Wed) it was down to Vittles at Sembawang.

It was totally empty when we got there in the middle of the day, and hence we kinda got to enjoy the whole cafe to ourselves. And the essence of it all is the free popcorn! Warm and just nice in its sweetness. Perhaps i should get a popcorn machine one day and pop my life away.

So, as usual, I had fish ( i only eat boneless fish). Parmesan coated fish fillet with gratinated potatoe and cheesy pasta. Fish is yummy and quite a huge portion. I think i still prefer Hog's.

And cj had this humongous burger-Moomoo burger. Huge and uber chunky. BAH

The subject of this photo is the burger in the foreground! See, its bigger than my face. lol

having lotsa difficulties cutting it.

and the free popcorn~

Really needed some exercise man. Headed down to eastcoast to cycle away all the fooood. oh no ( i swear i will start jogging next week no matter what).

yeh yeh i wanna be busy with my boyfren too >.<

Coast clear

and yea, you are gonna be up there very frequently real soon. BAH

Went ASTONS after that and had this. freak man.
I cannot eat anymore.

-
-
-
Packed my darn room today. And went on a sneezing madness when i was already wearing a mask to protect myself. I have came to a conclusion that i shall either live without a nose or migrate to another country in the future to save myself from all these shits forever and ever. Oh yar, i even found a letter that was penned for Saragoh in 2004! And its still with me, nicely sealed up and untouched.

out of curiosity, i opened it up and took a peek - a bunch of craps. But it helped me understand why i didnt pass it to her because in the last para i clearly wrote : I am still thinking whether i should even pass this letter to you. We shall see.

And so, 3 years later, we saw!

Sigh, i have stopped writing letters, I have even stopped sending christmas cards. I shall pick all these up again.

yar, but send them to who?

-
I need to go to church. I need to go to church.

2007-12-13T01:57:00.000+08:00

Shudders.
Shudders.
Shudders.

I think i better stop,
before it gets too unfamiliar.

I didnt know thats what i would get.

Shudders.

Lunch @ hogs breath =D

2007-12-11T20:49:00.000+08:00

With (about) half the amount i paid at Hogs the previous time, I had double the amount of food
at hogs lunch yesterday. And the main comes with a soup of the day and a Mississippi mudpie, though it looks more like a brownie to me. Had the pig-out with missgoh.

I wonder if its me or my camera. Cant seem to take unblurred pics nowadays.
But hey, this is my lunch- Pan fried dory fish fillet, and my fav hogs tail fries. Theres just something really savoury and tasty about the fries. OH, and I had a delicious chicken soup with
generous bits of chicken before this.

XY's chicken Dijonnaise! I love the creamy dijon mustard sauce. She gave me a large portion to try. And in the end, she couldnt finish either. SO i had quite abit of the chicken.
Eat out with xy next time!!! Can eat alot of her share.
She almost didnt touch her hogs tails while on the other hand, I wiped out mine =D

Mississippi mud pie. The brownie is served warm with bittersweet chocolate sauce!
AND i love the whipped cream. I nv liked whipped cream, but theres something diff
about this that makes it real yummy. I finished this too ( n someone only ate like 1/8 of it lousy)

Yet another blurr pic

Happy miss goh who is more than willing to share her food w me =)

And us~

Rather sinful treat but we walked it off later.
BUT overall still a sinful day coz we had a large large popcorn to go with our movie to end the day. >.<

child hood memories

2007-12-09T01:41:00.000+08:00

To many, this may be just a bowl of kweh chup, but to me, it evokes fond childhood memories. keke.

Had this at some random foodcourt and it time-machined me back to those days when i still tugged at my mom's hand to ask for the kweh to be cut into smaller pieces. Come to think about it, when was the last time i ate out with my parents? sighh

anwww, the kweh chup tasted exactly the sameeee.. the sauce, the soup, and the noodle. OH MAN. how nostalgic.

And for people who do not know me well, its not that kweh chup had resurfaced in foodcouts or whatsoever, its just that for the past 10 years or so, due to the strict diet i have been adhering to, whenever i give myself a break, i wouldn't go for dishes like this ( i thought it was a waste of calories).

sucks, i shall bring back all my childhood memories one by one back this hols. Meaning i shall start to eat chicken rice, Nasi Lemak, hokkien mee etc etc =D

---

I have confirmed that FYP makes people go mad. Perhaps all the ahsiaos in bedok lib were researching for their fyps when they became like this. =x

and so, even Dunstan is going crazy doing some lit review for his proj. An abstract of our conversation below tells you why.

Liyi : Did you try the disgusting donut donut beside the interchange? its fucking disgusting!
.. ..
.. .. ( thats how the donut topic was started)
Dunstan: woahhs, lets open one too- "dabian donut"
Dunstan: its something like erm, donut without a hole.
Liyi: donut without a hole and a dabian tip ( thats gross but you see i had to play along with him abit la)
Dunstan: wrap with toilet paper.
..
...
.....
...... (and after awhile)
Dunstan: Eh! and you sit on toilet bowl and sell!

That man is going crazy..

2007-12-06T19:54:00.001+08:00

oh no! the holidays gonna end! H O W!!

>.< >.< >.<

i must be m a d. it just started, hello hello, yea. calm down.
At the very least, i dont have to get back to that school. Am just not very comfortable with the uncertainties that i have to face in a new environment, coupled with the sad truth that geok and i will be separated, for once!

so i am just gonna go all out to enjoy this holidays, be it just slacking at home- i shall be contented =)

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

Watched two superb movies for the past week- Lust Caution & Enchanted.
Two VERY different movies that brought me very different cinematic pleasures. Coolness. Give me more of such movies ( not hairspray, its just totally not my type! =X)

Lust caution, so sad and intriguing that i guess not any other movies could hold me in this much suspense and make me walk out of the cinema any sadder than it did. Enchanted, on the other hand, was so romantic and fairy-tailish that i found it hard to burst the fantasy bubble above my head after watching it. =D

Super in love with movies that can bring me to the two extreme ends of my emotion

Nway, met up with shiyin and xiwen ( i know you are waiting to gup the photos) yesterday for Ice cream chef@ east coast road and Aston @ Katong! yummy.

Had a rum&raisin with malteses mix-in (my fav!).
Love the large juicy raisins that burst with flavour in every bite.
And heard that they allow bring-it-yourself mix-in! shall bring some cheesecake, kitkat, choc chunks, choc sauce there next time =D

next up! Aston! Xw's fried chicken with sour cream with baked potatoe and pasta salad.

My herbal baked fish with corn and onion rings. the fish is yummy. And less sinful, hee

and sy's. baked fish as well, with salad and mashed potatoe!

and the above three at just 18 bucks! craziness! i cant get a single dish at such price at other cafes~

AND today, i baked cheesecake! finally succeeded in making an un-runny one. hees\

mini cupcake size cheesecake.

its the dense type that i like. yumm
who wanna order from me?!

and last but not least, cant resist posting their pics. cuttee!!

CUTE

CUTE

ultimate cuteness!

blehs. where did i end?

okay, nothing much on DAY1, but went to this backpackers street, Khaosan Road, to chill out at night, and have some cheeapp drinks. Really nice place to people watch.

DAY 2- woke up early to have breakfast and then headed straight to the weekend market- chatuchuk!!

Yippiness, its a shopping paradise ( minus the heat), and thanks to Deana's bangkok survival guide, i started out from ZONE 24 and started combing the whole uber place from there. We still got lost in the end, but owells, thats what ctc is for right??

I am afraid of dogs, but this lil one is so cute and soft and cuddly!

another one!

we rested and rested and rested. i swear this is the most tiring trip eva. ate so much crap and yet i lost some weight.

Loy Krathong

It was the festival of light in Thailand on our second day there. wanted to join in the fun at this sapanpoot river place, but all the taxis refused to pick us up, so we made do at another river near our place, which to me, looked more like a drain. HAD fun nonetheless despite my aching body.

look at the lil sparks in the river (drain?), its the krathongs! The thais believe that by releasing a krathong into the river, their worries will float away with the krathong as well. so i got mine too!!!

us with our krathong! ehh.

go away trouble!

so funs!

and this funny one is made of some eggy cake if i aint wrong.

guess what i love about bangkok? Its the illegal street stalls! How cool if we could have it here too. Because one could nv finished shopping, and the shops close way too early... so, you can continue out there, where the things are equally nice and more affordable as well!

and anyways, you can see lotsa pinkish thingy like the cabs, motorbikes, phone booths, chairs, etc in Bangkok because its the IN colour there now. ohh yeah and also, braces! You are in when you have braces on. so we bought our faked braces. keke. =x

this is it! the thai king set the pink trend across the nation. coolness

and our fashion statement! =) spent 39 baht on this fake braces. super painful to put on thou, so it didnt stay long. only wore it to ntertain ourselves.

anyways the central world is made out of coolness. and the whole area outside the mall. You find nothing like this in singapore. swear!

this is it. theres this vibe there that i am totally in love with. This pic does no justice to the place though. you gotta be there.

3rd day was back to chutuchuk to finish up the place. BY then, my legs were about 1/2 gone. Had to rest every an hour to allow myself to cont farther..

Chanced upon this funny buffet place and we decided to have our dinner there! And guess what, its only about 80 baht per head.

this is the place! packed with locals!

the convex thingy is for grilling and steamboat is at the side. Didnt know how to use
it at first, so i tested it out with a hotdog! yeh, it stayed put.

the correct method is to place some oily lard so that the oil can drip down and coat the metal thingy. blehs.

not healthy, but really, its delicious and not to forget, fun!

yummies

~co-co walk~

we were still adamant about going to sapantoot ( didnt get to go the previous day because of weird cabbies), so we went on the third night instead. A nice night market there with a whole array of things to see and buy ( we bought the braces there!). And further down is a flower market that sells ubbberr fresh roses at the lowest price i have ever seen.

4th day - yea, got to change to a hotel nearer to platinum. so we could spend the next two days there. Baiyoke Boutique- we were greeted with super duper uber hospitality. Theres even welcome drink!

the lobby!

the lift!

Pinky room with no bed bugs.

=)

It was platinum mall for the day.
We were half way through the 3rd level of the platinum mall when i officially declared the break-down of my legs. I couldnt move anymore! >.< baiyoke sky- the tallest building in thailand =())!

yeah, we had a lil corner to ourselves, and its a window seat!

indulge~

took lotsa sashimi, my favv!

at the observation deck on the 77th floor. oh yar, and gotta mention this. we tried the binoculars thingy there and thru it, i could see people selling things in the shopping centre far far away from me!! its a must try.

i am on a hotair balloon. . . .

on a tut-tut

on top of bangkok

and finally, on the revolving platform. its outdoor. super cooling. and you can see the whole bangkok. keke

the view from above.

I can only say this is a must-go in bangkok. If only i wasnt dying from stomach ache ( over ate from the buffet =X) . . . . .

5th day - it was a madness rush to do last minute shopping. My legs broke down again so we went for another massage, but this time solely on the foot. and very very lastly, went to my fav illegal roadside shopping again near siam square, must go must go!

and finally out loots..

this is the combined. much lesser than i expected. but really didnt see alot of things i like.
so strange right.

gah! nonetheless, its a super cool trip. And i am missing that place already. I wanna go back again to finish my remaining bahtssss~~

bangkok =)

2007-11-29T23:38:00.000+08:00

it was an extremely tiring 6D5N.
The shopping would be cooler if not for my leg and back ache ( and stomach ache on one night).
My body is failing me, bad, but i wont give up on shopping, esply in Bangkok.

Gosh, the girls there are uber chio.....!!!!
I was gushing at them all day long- their long silky hair, flawless and fair complexion, slender figure, and on top of all these, their extremely good make-up skills and fashion sense.

Total Inferiority. puis.

AND, strangely, I didnt buy alot of things. And i spent much lesser than i expected. weird.
But overall, Bangkok is a damn cool place, much cooler than singap0re, in my opinion. Love it~

on day one...

we reached our hotel, Samran Place, at 3 plus going 4. Nice place with superb hospitality. The room looks good despite its relatively cheap pricing. Buuuuutt CJ kenna bed bugs for two nites, with big red swollen bites. eek.

our room, with invisible beg bugs.

The hotel's lobby.

and the funny toilet that produced brahh-ing and gruhh-ing white foam outta nowhere.

went straight for A&W's waffle icecream and rootbeer =) Had nothing on the plane because its budget and we didnt wanna waste our calories on instant noodles!

Yummy waffles. actually it tasted more like macs hotcakes.

And then its more junk food for the day. hardly had a decent meal until the later part of the trip. Had 4 DQ icecream throughout the trip ( its even cheaper than beijing's!) and please eat the green tea almond one if you ever get a chance to, 2 Dunkin donut in which the buttercream donut is fantastic and more guliguguai stuffs found along the streets.

its only 25 baht! faint~~

Dunkin! Big and Huge and cheaper than our local brands!

Double choc. =D

so cuutteee! i rem discussing about frying quail eggs with geok before.
so this is how cute they look!! i wanna try~

cute lil donuts at ctc!

very nice roadside crepe @ only 15 baht!

some UBERLY sweet crispy pancake.

and many more that got gobbled down by me before i had a chance to take a pic.

-- i will post the rest up tmr! -

I woke up on autopilot this morning, feeling fresh and happier ( easily achievable since i was down the dung last night).

checked.
no messages.

Fine, its okay.

12pm. I dragged myself out this time, just because i thought i felt the vibration.
But ehs, its just my hallucination.

4pm. I struggled myself out of bed, because i thought i heard you call.
.. It must be the flu pill.
No, no longer cheerful. Not at all.

6pm.
No i dont wanna check that damn thing anymore.

Waited too long

2007-11-21T13:27:00.000+08:00

super duper big gigantic wave of inertia stopping me from touching the 334 text.
no mood to study.
no mood to eat.
I am not even in the mood to go Thailand.

i shall pretend to be dead on the bed.

sometimes its hard to apply. Just like an exam, the prof will go on to tell you how you should apply the concepts in the exams and how the definition will not be tested, and that you just need to understand the concept well for the exam. fuck it, understanding it DOESNT mean you can apply it.
And sadly i am that very someone who doesnt know how to apply theories. I secretly hate open book exam, because for the past 12 years of study-pri, sec and jc- the school did not teach me how to apply. I just needed to memorise.

When i was in primary six, my mom was told by my form teacher that i was lazy and i needed to work harder during the meet-the-parents session. But at that moment i was left perplexed because its not that i dont want to work hard, its because i really dont know how to.

and i meant it. i thought i had studied everything i could, I didnt know whats more for me to do.

and now i am faced with the same how-to, the same how-do-i-apply.
I swear I understand and i am excited for you.
I am not gonna be some unreasonable shit or whatever.
But the idea of that happening for the next few years-and more- freaked me out.
Or perhaps i am just accustomed to always having you around.

He is wrong. You dont need a understanding girlfren for this job.
I think a strong girlfren is more like it.
And gues what, i am fucking not.

But its okay, i will get over it soon.
Afterall, its something i have to accept and adapt myself to for the next few years.
Just let me cry myself to death.

2007-11-18T20:42:00.000+08:00

And i am blogging again.

4 more days to the end of exams! And flyiinng to Bangkok on Friday. Will be back the following Wednesday. So, please let the next 4 days pass like light, and the following 6 days crawl by.

Gotta pack my room man. The accumulated dust is already knee high. urgh. Shall do something constructive this hols, but what?

AND let the darn man will be around during christmas, coz i awfully yearn to have a sweet christmas this year.

6 am again tmr. hopefully nothing more like this for the rest of the month. need a good rest. And lotsa fun.

god, gimme a nice brain tmr. thanks

2007-11-16T10:37:00.000+08:00

Did i say i was yearning to watch stardust for quite awhile so much so that i actually dreamt about it a few days back? The images from the dream are nothing like the real show ( yea i went to watch it last nite, like finally). In the dream, it was about this beautiful model who got married to a random guy, whom i guesssss is a fish monger. They lived in the north pole ( if i aint wrong) because everything i saw in the dream was white. So one morning, the girl went to sell the fish ( i swear i rem there were pola bears) and for some kinda reason, the customer started chasing the girl. She ran and ran until she reached the edge and she slipped off the super tall cliff ( imaging verticle limit) and she actually bounced left and right until she disappeared from sight. I didnt know i am this saddistic, but the two cliffs finally closed in on her and i supposed she got squashed to her death or something.

DUH.

anyways the real show is nice, but not fantastic in my opinion.

you know i am totally sicked of life and yet i still find myself typing this entry in the library ( meaning i still care about my exams). I guess the past 15 years of education had turned me into a tmd wuliao person. fuck it.

><

2007-11-15T14:38:00.000+08:00

I nv knew i could be this C A R E L E S S.
And i cant help being uber affected by it.

Tell me, how could i missed that one whole page out?
-

I am having this sinking sensation ( cant believe i am using this phrase again, used to use it alot on hk). But now its not on a person, nor is it on this morning's blunder. Its just a very general kinda feeling.

There should be some root to it somewhere, but i cant figure it out now.

i have stopped saying it.

uncle Steve

it has been a long long while since i heard something this sweet =)

2007-11-13T20:16:00.000+08:00

all you care about is you, and yourself.

musical chairs

2007-11-12T10:57:00.000+08:00

it is a strange phenomenon at Bedok library. at 1015am ( just 15 mins after the lib opened), all the seats around this long table are already taken up by old uncles ( strangely, theres no old aunties), with more hovering around the table waiting impatiently for their turns. This table, which can take about 12 people, is specially catered to newspaper readers. Here, newspapers- ST, LianHezaobao,shinmin, etc- are CHAINED to their respective spots on the table. And you see, they even split the newspaper up, meaning this spot is for people who wants to read ST life, another spot is for people who wants to read ST home section. SOOO, if you want to read the whole ST, you have to do seat hopping.

I mean, seriously, its like musical chairs here, except for the missing music,er, and the much older participants. Once the music stops ( thats when someone leaves his seat), the rest who are hovering around chiong towards that one seat in lightning speed. I could literally hear the music, i swear.

so i witnessed this scene just now. And i felt sad for this old uncle who wasnt fast enough and had to retreat to his hovering position.. I almost had the urge to go down and buy him the lian he zao bao.

why why why must the library chained the newspaper to the table???? why let these old people chiong like that?! isnt it obvious that demand is exceeding supply and they should get more copies, instead of splitting one copy into different parts...

and the music stopped thrice while i was writing this short post. ...... ......

total randomness.

2007-11-09T22:03:00.000+08:00

ahhh... i am so uber boredd!!

My first paper is coming next thursday and i havent started a shit.
And i have freaking no motivation to study due in part to the chui grades i am getting thus far for my projs. So how can i salvage my overall grade when the finals only stand like 30-50%~~
That explains my tepid mood to study. Study or not still = chui.

owells, at least i know where i am standing now, so i wont harbour too much hope for my grades this term, and hence, no disappointment. o goodie

SOO, my exams will end on the 22nd ( yeh yeh, 4 days earlier than most of you), and i am flying to bangkok on the 23rd!! Not really looking forward though, i dont know why, perhaps its still awhile away..
The thing is, i havent told my mom about it. and my pathetic bank account has only like 200 bucks left. great. i am going there to eat peanuts. for 6 days some more.

grr by hook or by crook, i gotta cook up some tales to tell my mom.

I feel like watching movie now, with a good bag of popcorn in my hands. I heard stardust is good. And lust caution. but the latter is disturbing, and i am one who gets really disturbed by movies. So i shall think about it. anyways, dont think i have the chance to watch them either.

ah .. i am seriously bored. seriously seriously extremely bored.
i wanna go back to all those parties..
Guess what, i dint even got near a club this sem, when i went like almost twice a week for the previous previous sem.

isnt life more fun back then?

hmm, i guess so.
or perhaps i am just too demanding, whatever~

woot

2007-11-08T22:48:00.000+08:00

Uncle Steve told me not to call myself a hog ( he read my post on Hog's breath), but i can call myself a pig because pigs are "young and clean and pretty".
HE IS SO FUNNY.

Really hope i can meet him up one day, although we are at 2 diff ends of the globe.

AND i seriously miss cj's baby nephew and niece ( yea not cj fyi), havent seen them for weeks..........

=(=(

haha. this is so funny. can you figure out whats in front of me. YEAH its a truckload of seafood. and A uBER Huge glass of drink. @ fishnco.
.I A M A P I G.

silkygirl, be a swan(haha)

2007-11-05T23:55:00.000+08:00

I am quite proud of this project somehow, no matter how the results may turn out to be.

Its a series of poster ads and storyboard for our tv ad.

Xiang Yi as the ugly duckling

how she longed to be accepted..

all thanks to Silkygirl, she is now a beautiful swan!

Storyboard.

COOL right? Yes yes, i know its cool.

it was hell

2007-11-04T15:35:00.000+08:00

my hell week is so finally over. Had to hand in 2 final reports, 1 assignment, 2 presentations, and my internship interview had to fall on this week as well ( anyway i got accepted!! yippie)

It wasnt easy, like seriously, when i had to alternate between the school, home, and off to work the projs elsewhere at midnite and then home at unearthly hour ( like 6am). I swear something could have been done about this (like my sis going over to my mom's room to sleep) and i did voice out to my mom, in tears, but nothing was done.

fine, whatever, it has always been like that since time immemorial.
perhaps they just dont love me enough , or they love her more.
I guess its the latter.
.

so cj got to make do with this on his 2*th birthday because it fell on my hell week as well. =x

2007-10-25T21:34:00.000+08:00

Was at Millenia Walk today with proj mates when i felt a slight pain in my stomach.
There i go again, i thought.
But after awhile, i knew it wasnt the normal pain i have every once or twice a week.
It was like as if there was this needle in there piercing in and out of my stomach.
Fucking excruciating.

It cant be gastric? i had breakfast, lunch and teabreak.
Bought antacid on the way home, chewed two, and it got worse!!

and then the pain ceased totally when i got home.
what a weird stomach i have

It took everything from me not to Cry-out-loud just now

please dont let it happen again.
puuhhh-leeassee

2007-10-19T20:30:00.000+08:00

wah lao, i knew it.
If you bother to look through my posts, you would realise around this time of every month, i would chu4 an emo post.

yeah so there i go again ( i really cannot help it, SORRY)....

i think i have serious problem with anger management.
But first thing first, i have a question.

Is anger supposed to be shelved ( and then hope that it can dissipate itself like perfume)? Or should anger be made known via quarrels/arguments/fight-it-outs?

I practise the former.
Because all along i thought REN-ing will get me away from some resultant shits.
But recently i realised that although i do succeed in shelving anger away, they get stored on the shelf and will never go away.
So i have came to e first conclusion that anger is not like perfume, it is more like a packet of fries.

But THEN it doesnt stay in its original state. It will manifest itself into some kind of a form.

Here, i no longer feel angry with that someone or that something, but the anger gets transformed into some sort of a resentment. Like, eh hello, i hate you.

And then i realised i dont show my resentment either.....
I became a hypocrite.

And i hate hypocrites =(

And hence i came to the second conclusion that anger cannot be suppressed. It has dire effect on your relationship with yourself.

So it means that i have to quarrel and argue with people more often.
Buttttt then i have serious difficulty expressing myself even in a normal situation, much less an argument.

...
..
.

I think i still can fight.
Won my sister a couple of time when i was a kid.

you fat arse

2007-10-12T10:23:00.000+08:00

i am increasingly getting annoyed with people who

-do nowt and still act like you know everything when everything you say is booshit. Please, dont have to threaten me with the prof , i have a thousand more things against you. So shut your fat arse.

hmm actually thats all. I am not going to be kind to this kind of people anymore. I will not even ACT kind, because its bad, its lying.

You try to kaobei me again, i will blow my top. I swear.

rice table, Hog's Breath

2007-10-07T23:15:00.000+08:00

and i said i want to be on a diet....
2 heavy meals in 2 days...
owells.

Rice table

celebrated michelle chew's bday last nite at rice table. it was great catching up with andy, jet and yulin. Alas jean couldnt make it here, or it would be more fun.

a party with hats! pretty mitch~

the guys

yulin

yummy indo food. a tad too spicy for me thou..

best of the day. choc icecream cake! thanks mitch!

Hog's breath with xiwen, ada and sy today. long long time since the 4 of us met up. =)

its cool to go out with xw. because can wear NICENICE to
complement her. lols

hog's Breath cafe at vivo.

the four of us~

my atlantic salmon set. uber big portion. and theres
this really nice crackers hidden under the salmon. It was a great
complement for the salmon and the cheesy sauce on top. yumm yumm

ready to devour the food. I doubted i could finish them, but i
seriously underestimated my appetite.

xiwen's. it huge portion.

shiyin's

i FINISHED everysingleshit infront of me. i am a hog.

shiyin and i

aha. shiyin looked so delighted here. and i wore high heels still not comparable to the 2 tallies.
urge.

time for diet. and i mean it this time, for one week. hee. =X

wan chai Classic.

2007-10-06T23:40:00.000+08:00

people i am getting fat. fuck. I will go on a strict diet after this week. i promise
But before this lemme talk about this hongkong cafe at IMM that flown me back to hk. =)

The food there is pretty comparable to what i had in hk.

lotsa people.

As usual, i had my fav hawker food, wanton mee. The mee and soup are similar to
that of Hk's. But the wanton has too much meat. nice thou. i love!

Pork floss fried beancurd.

the outer layer is deep fried crispyness, and the inside is beancurd soft.
like duh.

Pork Rib baked rice. Its pineapple rice in there. I found it
really nice. the cheesy/pineapple/tomato/porkrib burst of flavours was
HEAVENLY.

Time for dessert! Almond and sesame paste.

so stunned.

this cafe is really nice... and its near NTU.. go go go tryy!!

-i swear i will stop eating/binging when monday comes-

2007-10-05T13:22:00.001+08:00

Fishing anyone?

!!i dont feel like going to schoooool

genting~

2007-10-05T11:44:00.000+08:00

and i shall talk about my genting trip.
What was i doing this time last week? hmm
Comtemplating whether to take the spaceshot at the theme park?
and, in the end, we didnt. (cj chickened out, not me, i swear)

This is the 4th trip up there: the first 2 when i was a kiddo, and the only thing i could remember is how frustrated i got when the candyfloss around me (still) couldnt be eaten.

The 3rd trip was before uni, with parents and their friends. hmm, no fun.

Now then i know genting can be fun when 1) you are not a kiddo that just want to eat clouds, 2) you are not with your parents and 3) you are not with your parents, their friends, and made to accompany their friends' kids who just want to eat cloud.

So, this time i had fun, really =)

--

the trip up and down were good. the seats were really big and spacious, like this

super vip bus.

us sitting comfortably in our coach. hahaha.

( i am like super amused with myself)

Was reading off from a certain forum, and the girls were yakking away at how uber bad the food are, how small the hotel rooms are, and stuffs. Conversely, i found the rooms good.
Too spoilt, these people.

This is the spacious corridor of firstworld hotel tower 2.

Uhh i blocked out a big part of the mirror reflection of the room =X
But seriously its really comfy.

another angle. =)

it was alot of walking the first day, exploring around. Went into casino toos, for the very first time in my life. ahas. a noisy marketplace i would describe it to be. not my cuppa tea.

watched The Brave One on genting...

Complemented with a freaking long bag of popcorn. love

the second day was spent at the theme park, plus a buffet and another movie

i didnt play the spaceshot =(
