Return from my Cambodia trip. Enjoyed myself as we eat quite a lot of local fruits. We encountered a very good taxi driver and we booked his taxi from 3 days. Uploaded my photos in facebook and travelogue but havent blog yet so are saved as draft currently. Will update my blog soon as I dun want to blog it mths later as I may not remember some details. My blog images upload is bursting soon, currently at 89%. Was wondering whether I can migrate my personal blog to another email account but my concern is whether the photos will be deleted or not. I'm thinking of ways to prevent the images upload from bursting but I had so many trips entries, bursting is a matter of time. Hmm... Think gonna create another travelogue and link to the existing one. I'm really glad that I started blogging since I started travelling except the first trip to HK. It's not easy to maintain a travelogue so I really admired those who are able to as there are a lot of work from uploading the photos to blogging the entries. My purpose of maintaining a travelogue is to look back those entries in the future as it's impossible to remember every single details in those trips. I'm also happy that people found the information useful to their trip when they read my travelogue. =) This really motivates me to keep it going.

Happy New Year everyone! Went to Marina Bay to countdown with YQ, my sis and her frenz. Tons of people everywhere and in the end, we countdown at Marina Square. Saw people counting down at Oriental Hotel, I was thinking mayb next time can book a hotel too. Just that the rates are super high and must book early.

Il Lido is located at Sentosa Golf Resort. We make reservation for Sunday Champagne brunch ytd. Reached there around 12.45pm and it was drizzling. We opt for the indoor seats. The food was so so, not really very nice. If not for the voucher, I wouldnt come here for their brunch since it is so ex, $98 per pax and yet the food is not nice at all. The portion is ok but there are 5 courses which is very filling.

White wine, Red wine & champagne
Garlic bread

Appetiser

Pasta

Me & YQ

SeabrassVeal

Desserts
Coffee & Tea

Updates since my last entry....

Last minute travel decision to KL from 23 - 26 Dec with Diana. Office closed from 22 Dec - 3 Jan. Was chatting with Diana in msn on 22 Dec and we decided to head to KL for a short holidays. Decided to travel by coach from Johor Larkin Terminal to KL. Msn my frenz who is going to KL soon and ask him for the hotel name which he is staying. Quickly booked the accomodation online and done some simple research, managed to found my KL guidebook which i took from the NATAS travel fair. This is my first time having such a last minute travel plan, thrilling....

Won a champagne brunch for 2 pax at Il Lido. Wow... this is by far the most expensive item that I had won. Had been joining contests very frequently nowadays. So far, had won movie tix for Coco before Chanel, 9, April bride, 500 days of summer, Mulan and Shelock Homes. Hehe.. get to watch these movies previews for free. Hope to win more in the future.

Some updates:

Attended sis convocation at Raffles City Convention Hall last sat. Each graduates has one complimentary guest hence sis had to fork out additional $55/ person for 2 more pax. Haha... she keep complaining tt so ex wow... loaning of the gown cost ~$200plus and the photograph package cost another $300plus. After the convocation, YQ pick us up and we went to Marina Barrage to fulfil my sis wish of taking photos there. We head to Vivo and had dinner at Soup Restaurant. Oso collected the swensen ice-cream tub at $1 due to the HSBC credit card promotion. Now there are already 4 tubs of ice-cream at home. Usual price is $10.80, tt's a cheap deal.

Make a couple of travel plan next year, quite a no of long wkend, going to make use of these wkends.

Booked jetstar airtix to Penang for Good Friday weekend next yr. Cost $109 per pax. Going there for 3 days 2 nights and able to maximise the time there as the arrival time at Penang is 8.25am on Friday and the return flight is 5.10pm on Sun. Going there with my parent, sis and YQ.

Also booked jetstar airtix to Phnom Penh last friday for travel from 16-19 Jan 10. Going there wif sis. Make use of the friday lunch sales promotion, cost $88 for return trip which is inclusive of tax, normal tix cost almost $200. Prefer Angkor Wat but the travelling period is from Apr - May 10. Dec - Jan is the ideal travelling period to Cambodia as the weather for the remaining months are either too hot or monsoon season.

Intend to go to Kuching during the National weekend with my family, havent book the airtix yet, waiting to see if there are promotions coming, latest will book by dec, scared the price will increase. Oso planning to go to Bangkok with YQ during Xmas period next yr. Most likely going for a week, wanna go Ayutthaya and Kanchanaburi too.

Only one trip this year and I planned so many trips next year, crazy.... but I love it! Hope that the budget airlines are flying to more destionations, the more the merrier. =)

Finished my post on the Ubin trip. Realised that I tend to forget some of the details if I blog a long time after my trip even though I carried a notebook when I went for my trip. Someone asked me before tt how come I remember those nitty gritty things and I told her tt I bought a notebook along for all my trips. Well, will try to update my travelogue as soon as possible after each of my trips.

2009-10-20T13:22:00.003+08:00

Came across this brain teaser and share it here wif everyone:

Two women got onto a bus, they were followed by another two men and one little boy. At the next stop one woman got off and a further six people got on. When the bus arrived in the town, two men got off and another four men got on. The bus then continued on its journey. At the next stop three women and three men got off the bus, this time no-one got back on the bus. At the last stop of its journey a further six people got off the bus. When the bus finished its journey there was no passengers left on the bus? True or False?

Just celebrate my 1/4 of a century wif YQ over the weekend at Changi Village Hotel. We stayed there from Fri nite till sun noon. Choose Changi Village Hotel as there is a promotion of $199++ for one nite stay with another free nite. Went to Pulau Ubin on sat and cycle there for almost the whole day. Really enjoyed myself for the 3 days and appreciate dear dear for planning this. Shall upload the photos and divulge more details in my travelogue.

Hopefully I would be able to travel more often after YQ change his job. It's really pathetic that I only went to HK this year. '0_0'

2009-09-17T15:37:00.015+08:00

Logged into blogger today and found tt there is no problem uploading the photos hence I quickly upload those photo for my travelogue but i havent blog yet. Hopefully the singnet issue has been resolved cos i dun wish to log into blogger on another day and cant upload my photos.

Mentioned in my previous entry tt my FC treated me and my colleague a meal at Au Petit Salut at Demsey Road. I promised YQ tt i'll treat him a meal at the sister branch which is Bistro Petit Salut after i got my pay. Bistro Petit Salut is located at Jln Merah Saga which is near Holland Village. The set dinner is $38++ which comprise of Appetizers, Mains and Dessets. It's very funny tt those choosen by YQ are not as delicious as mine. Recently if we eat different food, the one choosen by me is always nicer than him. I dun understand why.

I really love the bread here. It is the nicest bread which i had ever eaten in a restaurant. The bread is warm and soft and crispy. Yummy....

Breads

I chose the snails again although i ate them the last time. The appetiser chosen by YQ is cold minced pork which i dun find it nice.

1/2 dozen oven baked Burgundy snails with tomato and garlic butter

Country style pork pâté with mushrooms and smoked bacon, ravigote vinaigrette

I chose the chicken leg braised in red wine. The red wine smell and taste is not very heavy and the chicken is very tender. YQ chose Risotto which is Italian fried rice. The fried rice is not like our normal fried rice as the rice is much hard, like semi-cooked rice. Probably the westerner prefer hard rice.

“Coq-au-Vin” Chicken leg braised in red wine jus served with root vegetables and bacon

Risotto with with baby scallops, prawns, squids with light cream emulsion

For dessert wise, i chose choux buns as i read on the net tt choux buns are not easy to make. YQ chose Mont Blanc which dun taste nice, so in the end i help him to eat his Mont Blanc while i gave hime one of my choux buns.

Choux buns with vanilla ice cream, warm chocolate sauce and sliced almonds

“Mont Blanc” of vanilla ice cream, chestnut purée and meringue

It's nice to pamper myself with good food occassonally. But this pampering would be very rare nowadays.

Mentioned tt i entered quite a number of contest recently and the latest prize i had won is a pair of "9" movie tix. The movie was ok, dun feel the worth of paying to watch it.

This week mobmovie result is out. The movie screening is Hotel for Dogs at Marina South Pier. I went to the official website to watch the trailer and was amused by those machines created by the orphans tt is able to serve foods, clear the waste etc for the dogs. Looking forward to this. I have to forgo the Class 95FM Movie by the park at Fort Canning Park since these 2 clashes.

Took up swimming lesson with CH at Clementi Swimming Pool on every wed. Although i had learnt swimming in primary and secondary school, i really forgot how to swim. 0_0" My body is so restless today after swimming ytd. Too long didnt excercise. Probably may go swimming over the long weekend to practice it.

Read in Wobao few weeks ago on an article abt places of interest in Singapore. As we always complain nothing to do in Singapore over the weekend, why not visit the places listed in these 2 websites: Rediscover Singapore by URA and Myonlinetour. Myonlinetour is a comprehensive website as it also cater to those who takes public transport.

2009-08-27T15:20:00.004+08:00

Seldom blog nowadays as there is always problem with blogger. My sis told me tt it's singnet problem as most of the time she couldnt log into her hotmail.

Life is busy as usual although work is more relax now and I usually knock off on time. Well, wat I'm busy wif???

1) Recently, I'm v into those samples and freebies. After signing up Fr3b store member, I went there abt twice a week to grab the samples. Either I went there myself or wif my colleague after work or I went there on weekend wif my sis. I guess I would grab samples which is worth more than the $28 one year membership. Furthermore, the samples in the goodies bag and the free spa voucher (oops, I got 2 vouchers)are definitely worth more than $28. So far, I have grabbed more than 50 items such as:

On top of being Fr3b member, I oso sign up as zample (currently no sample) and cozycot member. For cozycot, there is less samples variety and cozycot does not have a retail sample store like Fr3b where u can browse and choose ur sample. So far, I have also grab almost 30 items from cozycot such as Radox Smoothie Body Wash, Johnson & Johnson 24 Hour Lasting Moisture Body Lotion, Emporio Armani Diamonds perfume, Kose Mask white, Etude House toner, Ginvera shower scrub etc...

There is also one sample website for guys and I sign up for YQ too. Currently there is only 1 sample available at no postage charge - Mentholatum for Men Charcoal Face Wash.

Other than these samples website, I oso received Damaged Hair Reconstruction Programme Kit from Sunsilk directly and Kotex Luxe* Ultrathins sanitary pad recently from their website directly.

2) I also v keen in joining contest nowadays, anyway it's free, no harm trying my luck. So far, I have won 2 movie passes to "The Management" and using YQ name, I have won 2 movie tix to "Coco Before Chanel". Hehe... hope to win more prizes in the future.

3) I also discovered free movies held outdoor on every fornight. The event is Moviemob where you drive in and park your car there to enjoy the movie listening from ur car FM. This event started on 18 July but I only get to know it recently. We went there the first time on 15 Aug at Prinsep Street open field to catch "Definitely Maybe". For passioncard members, there are free popcorn and coke available. We were late on 15 Aug hence we only manage to have free popcorn as coke was out of stock. Hence this coming sat, we will definitely go earlier. This sat 29 Aug event is held at Marina South Pier screening Stardust. Class 95FM is oso holding it's Movies in the Park screening Ironman & Transformer at Fort Canning Park on 12 Sep 09 6pm.

Life is just so busy...

Ahhh... really angry with blogspot. Whenever i wanna blog, blogspot will give me problem. Why is it tt the format toolbar is always missing when i want to blog? I cant format my font, cant upload photo.... This is the reason why i havent been blogging recently. Haiz...

Three days just gone like this. Went food tasting wif YQ to Copthrone King on Sat wif his family as his sister is getting married in Dec. Hmm... there are just so many nitty gritty things to take care of for wedding. For the banquet alone, had to select the food, the wedding invitation card, the no of tables, the songs, the speech... I always feel tt wedding is really a hassle. How i wish for a v simple wedding where i dun have to plan so many things.

Went to sungei buloh wif YQ on sat. We choose route 1 which took us 1 hr. Route 1 only cover half of whole sungei buloh so i didnt had a chance to see the prawn pond. In the afternoon, we went to Vivo to catch 3D Up. As we didnt watch 3D movie in the theatre before, I suggest giving it a try. The 3D effect was not tt great compared to the one I watched in HK Disneyland. Somemore tt was 4D including the "feel" effect. The scene i like most is the the love life on Carl and Ellis from young till old. It is really heartwarming n touching. It is really a blessing to have somemore to walk wif u for the remaining of ur life. Kudos Pixar for coming out this nice cartoon.

2009-07-26T14:06:00.001+08:00

Sian, I can't upload my photo again. seems tt blogger keep having problems nowadays. Ytd went to Jurong Point and had Kushinbo buffet for dinner. Thks to YQ for losing a bet to me. The food spread was all Japanese food, ranging from seafood, sushi, tempura, chawamushi, yakitori, teppanyaki, mini paper steamboat, soba, udon, salads, free flow of drinks, desserts, fruits and chocholcate fondue. We spent of our time eating the Alaska crab. The crab was steamed and retained its freshness and juice. Wow... this is the largest crab tt i had ever seen. YQ said tt mayb they soak the crab with sugar. ><" The buffet cost $39.99++ per pax and there was promo of $3 per pax ytd for those who checkout b4 8pm. As we had eat to our fullness before 8pm, we checked out to make use of the offer.

Received my sample package from fr3b and tried 3 of the sample. haiz... I cant upload the photo of the package i recieved. Shall update it next time.

I got quite a couple of posts which i didnt update on my travelogue - our 1st anniversary, the night festival, the art festival. OMG, wat i'm busy wif?

2009-07-18T10:55:00.005+08:00

MY FC hold a welcome lunch ytd for me by treating me and 2 other colleague at a French restaurant - Au Petit Salut at Harding Road (near Dempsey Road) for lunch. This restaurant is not accessible so we went there by cab. We had set lunch which is $30++ which includes an entree, main course, dessert and tea/coffee. I chose Half dozen baked Burgundy snails with tomato and garlic butter for entree, Braised chicken leg with capsicums, tomatoes, onions and garlic, potato gratin for main course and Warm melted 70% dark chocolate cake served with chocolate sorbet for dessert (gotta top up $10). I was so so so full after the lunch that i didnt had much appetite for dinner. The food was yummy and delicious. This is my first time eating snails and they taste nice, not too soft nor too hard. It's a pity that i didnt take any shots of the food. After our lunch, I head home as my FC gave us half day break today, super good.... Haiz... but i got lesson at night so i had some rest before gg for class again.

I went to Au Petit Salut website and found that they have another outlet near Holland V. I promise YQ that I'll treat him after I got my Jul pay. The set dinner at Harding Road outlet is too ex $68++, Holland V menu is cheaper @ $38++. Well, tonite YQ gonna treat me Kushinbo buffet cos he lost a bet to me. I wld only bet wif him things I'm confident wif so tt's y he lose, haha...

Yeh, my fr3b product samples was mailed out on fri so shld be reaching me in few days time. Looking forward to it. YQ product samples had been mailed out too. Hehe... I oso went to some products website and get freebies directly from them but I had no idea when I would be receiving the sample. For cosemtic, it has to be redeem at their outlets.

2009-07-13T20:09:00.009+08:00

Mentioned in my previous post that I had problem uplaoding photo tt time so tata... this is my work station. YQ is super jealous when he saw the photo. I have so much privacy here... can msn (btw my sis recommend me the new live messenger which you can lock the msn to prevent the messagebox from popping up), can surf net (shhhh....), can do a lot of things... Wahahaha....

Door to my work station

My work station

Read about free product sample websites on the Straits Times few days ago and I went to register as member with them. Membership is free and points are given to redeem the sample, need to pay for the postage which depends on the sample chosen. Registered with Zample but their samples are out of stock!!! Then i tried the other one Fr3b. I had registered and just check out 4 samples - Loreal Foundation, Rojukiss Spot Light BB Cream, Eucerin Mattifying Sun Fluid SPF50 & BIO ESSENCE Marvel Mask. All these cost me a normal postage fee of $2. Now I'm waiting for their samples to be mailed to me. I even use YQ name to register an account for him cos there are also products sample for male. I asked him what are the products he wanna try and I gonna check out these products for him: Billy Jealousy Hydroplane Super Slick Shave Cream, Billy Jealousy Liquid Sand Exfoliating Facial Cleanser & Natural Face Lift series which contains 1 Ruler, 1 NUGENO MEN Face Lifting Cream, 1 Nugeno MEN Deep Exfoliating Gel and 1 NUGENO MEN Radiant Youth Essence. Hehe... so excited about it, can't wait to receive my sample and I may consider joining their store membership.

2009-07-03T18:45:00.011+08:00

Shall talk about my new job first. Working hour wise is good cos I'm able to knock off on time and reach home before 7pm. This is really a luxury in the past. Moreover, i can reach my office within 40-45 min if there is no jam or short waiting time for the changing bus.

Working envt wise is good cos my working space is huge until YQ is so envy. Somemore my working space is at a corner where people would seldom come hence a lot of privacy.

But as for choices for lunch, it is pretty limited cos there's only a coffee shop opposite, the cafe downstair is pretty ex, the hawker centre is almost a bus stop away and the Great World is further down from the hakwer centre. My lunch kakis are the receptionist and customer relationship staff and they bring along lunch boxes most of the time which means i gonna buy back from the coffee shop opposite as I dont want to walk so far under scorching hot sun.

As for the work itself, I pretty much can manage and handle them, just that the things are messy currently. Once I sorted them out, it shouldnt be a problem for me.

Wanna upload photo for my anniversary but seems tt i had problem uploading, shall blog abt it next time.

Next weekend is Night Festival so going with YQ to the museum to watch the performance line up for the festival. Last year performance was enjoyable and this year the performance has acrobatics and fireworks. Wonder whether would it be as interesting as the one i watched during the Singapore Art Festival.

2009-06-21T13:35:00.007+08:00

After a break of 5 mths, i'm rejoining the working force again. Went for 8 interviews and in the end, 2 companies offered me. Other than the 1st interview which I felt tt i didnt did well, the rest of the interview was more like gaining interview experience for me. In the end, i choose the property company although the IT company offered me a higher pay. Although pay is a factor but it is not the sole factor which I decide when accepting the job offer. Finally I'm working 5 days a week, this is something which I'm looking forward to. The working environment at the property firm is quite flexible which attracts me.

Had enrolled for ACCA P3 class this semester, this will make me more discipline since I gotta attend class. Enrolled for Fri class so I don't have to worry abt being tired for work the next day and I asked YQ to fetch me after class.

Was considering about attending Japanese class after CH bring up this. Told YQ abt this and he encourage me. But when I told him tt if the lesson is on wkends and I may spend less time wif him, he object to it. Chauvnistic right? Found that the Bukit Panjang CC is offering basic Japanese class from next sat onwards. Somemore it's from 11-12pm and YQ is working on Sat morning so which means this wldnt clash with my dating wif him. Still considering about it.

Going for another staycation next week for anniversary. Well, since YQ cant take leave, we just take a short break over the weekend. We booked Fairmont Hotel w/o breakfast for $138++ which is consider a steal. I also booked a 45 min massage at Element Spa which cost $18 with the UOB one card promotion. As for dinner, i leave it to YQ. I make a simple calculation that if I wanna stay in those 4 stars n above local hotels, there would be more than 70 such hotels. OMG, if i stay in 3 hotels a year, it would take me almost 23 yrs. Just too many....

Enjoyed this year Singapore Art Festival. Went to the opening and closing performance. The closing performance at Yishun by the Crackers? was spectacular with fireworks. Going to the Singapore River Festival next week http://www.visitsingapore.com/srf09 to catch the bumboat parade, read bridge spectacular and the impossible world record. Singapore is definitely more lively and interesting with such performances around.

2009-05-03T23:00:00.009+08:00

Now is already May and soon will be exam period. The thought of it did damper my mood sometimes. Ah... This means I gonna miss the International Museum Day cos it falls on the 31st May and I will be missing some of the Singapore Art Festival Performance due to EXAMS!

I do admit that I really don't have the mood to study. What happen to me? I wonder if I should have quit my job 2 yrs ago when I still have the momentum to study. No use thinking back so I should move on. Study hard and exams will be over soon. Looking forward to next mth cos it's our anniversary.

Ytd was YQ bday and I had a few surprises for him. I do admit that being in a relationship really got it's pros and cons. Haha... gotta think what to buy for present, think where to treat him for dinner, think what to do on his birthday. But the returns from him is definitely much more, hehe...

Will divulge more details and upload more photos in my travelogue.

2009-04-12T14:05:00.008+08:00

Read my frenzs blog n glad that they are happy with their life. It's inevitable that I feel my distance with my frenzs seems to drift apart when everyone is preoccupied with their other half. Well, that's just part n parcel of life. Eventually when we settle down and have our own families, we would be more occupied than now. May all my frenzs remains happy and blissful in their relationship.

Was thinking of which restaurant to go for dinner on YQ birthday. Asked my ex-colleague when we met in the pub few days ago and she suggested Il Lido, Equinox and Jewel Box. But these places seems to be a bit steep for my budget cos I'm a wanderer right now mah. Was goggling and found this restaurant and went to their website. It's located at Middle Road near Bugis and i like the ambience as seen from the website. It has a sense of mystery which is why the restaurant is called "My Secret Garden". Will comment on it after I been there.

Went to Lifespa @ Pacific Plaza with YQ on sat. We had 60min deep tissue massage for $25 and top up $6 for Seaweed back masque which is available through the UOB credit card promotion. All along, my purpose of owning credit cards is to make use of such discount and offers available, not to indulge myself into becoming a spendthrift. Btw I had watched the Confessions of a Shopaholic and I definitely wldn't allow myself to become one. It's a ball rolling effect and it's dangerous. Back to the massage, as usual after the massage sessions, the sales promoter would be there to psych and tempting you to sign up their package. Well, it seems pretty attractive that for $83 per mth to be paid for a period of 36mths, you can enjoy 42 sessions of 60min body massage + 42 sessions of body scrub + 42 sessions of jazcuzzi and suana and the sessions can also be used by other people. But after calculating the total amount to be paid, it's $2,988. After the experience of signing up the yoga package, I learnt my lesson. Once bitten twice shy. Somemore we find that the spa experience at Spa Village is much better. I had previously sign up the package of $388 which comes with free $100 worth of treatment and can be used to deduct each spa session of your choice. I paid for the package almost 3 years ago during my first visit and my utilisation rate is once every year cos I had only went for 3 spas until now. Almost utilised the package after the last session which I went with YQ for the couple vintage 2hrs retreat some times back.

All along, I find that Singapore is just so so so small. I guess the norms that couple did on weekends are watching movies, shopping, eat and what else? Sometimes we also feel headache of thinking places to go. Had been to a couple of not so frequently visited places which I had posted in my travelogue and there are somemore places which I intend to visit which I listed down on my "to visit list". Gotta go to these places some days. If my frenz has any interesting places to recommend, must tell me hoh. I did thought of driving to Malaysia once in a while but my concern is YQ is unfamiliar with the roads. But now he bought a GPS, hmm... I wonder if we can try going on a weekend trip. Definitely not 2 of us lah cos I definitely don't wish to get lost in Malaysia, the more the merrier.

May and June will be a more interesting months because of the Singapore Art Festival and the International Museum day. This year, the festival opening is Hélios II by La Compagnie Malabar (France) at the Marina Barrage from 15-17 May at 8pm. The closing performance is Crackers? by The World Famous (UK) at Yishun open field from 13-14 Jun at 8pm. Time to soak myself in the art atmosphere again. There are lot of performances lining up and of cos there are free performances which shouldn't be miss. Do visit: http://2009.singaporeartsfest.com/#/outreach for more informations about the free performances. Btw the schedules for "Arts on the move" will be only be available from May onwards. The International Museum day is from 23-31 May and more information is only available from May.

Started to study this week but momentum is slow. Gotta get myself into the mood of studying. Had been quite sloppy in studying. I seem to lose interest in studying. So sick of it. Must keep telling myself that i left 2 modules, get it over and fast. Gambade!!!

I make tiramisu again and this time it's not as sweet as the previous one. It's easier cos i already know what to do. Somemore the tiramisu is not required to be baked, which makes it a lot easier than baking cakes. It's really a nice dessert and I like the meaning behind it.

I had been thinking of getting cervix cancer vaccine. I was ignorant about cervix cancer until I had my body checkup last Nov. I guess most of you would be having the same mindset as me. The doctor recommended me to get cervix cancer vaccine before the age of 26 and before one become sexually active. However the vaccine is not cheap, cost about $400 - $600 for a total of three dose. According to the Health Promotion Board, a woman is diagnosed with cervical cancer every two days. Cervical cancer ranks second to breast cancer as the most common cancer among women in the Asia—Pacific region. Unlike other cancer, cervix cancer can be prevented through vaccination and papsmear screening. The vaccine is not 100% effective against cancer but prevention is better than cure and the vaccine is for lifetime. This is the cancer that killed Anita Mui. Read an article in Wanbao that there was a talk on 4 Apr and a promotion of $99 per dose if took during the talk. Haiz... I only read the paper ytd, should i have read it earlier, I would definitely go for the talk. I just google that there is a promotion of $375 for 3 dose at a clinic in Bedok. The hospitals seems to offer the vaccine dose at a higher price. I am seriously considering about getting the vaccine cos I'm turning 26 soon. It's definitely worth to spend such money to love urself.

Updates for the past 1 week:

I finished my HCMC travelogue. Yeh!!! Also finished uploading all the HK trip photo on my blog and finished blogging the first day. Well, will update the remaining days soon. I should stop procrastinating, those need to be done just need to be done.

Went to Malaysia on Saturday for Ching Ming and catch up with my two 表妹 whom I had not met them for almost 2 years. As we grow up, we no longer play around like when we are young, it gets complicated that's why some people become like 陌生人。

Went cycling at East Coast yesterday and I finally learn how to cycle. Yearning to learn cycling for a long long time. Luckily i wore longer shorts and this protected me. Had some bruises and scratches on my hands and legs. Havent been excercising for super long and now feel the strain on my arm muscles. The feeling of being able to cycle is undescribleable.

Had been driving YQ's car once in a while but i have a tendancy to speed. Of cos my speeding is not exceeding 100km/h. My parking skill really need more practice, tend to tense up when there is car behind me. Need to rectify on my weakness and improve on them.

Make tiramisu on monday. First time making tiramisu and it turn out to be too sweet. I followed my ex-colleague receipe and half all the portion. Will modify the portion next time. I found from the internet that tiramisu means "Pick me up". Knew it before but forget abt it. YQ comment that it's nicer than the oreo cheesecake i make last time. Cos the base of the oreo cheesecake is to hard. LOL.

Yup, gotta start studying. YQ is so busy nowadays, almost working until 8plus everyday and also working half day on saturday. I received the UOB credit card privileges brochures and noted that there is a promotion of $25 for 60min massage at Lifespa so I booked a slot for 2 of us next sat to relax ourselves. Considered quite cheap so why not try it out.

2009-03-23T14:59:00.002+08:00

Finally after so long, I finished my Taiwan travel blog. That's due for a very long time. Also finished blogging the Malaysia trip, now left HCMC and Hong Kong trip. Give myself some encouragement although i know that the remaining trip will takes some times to complete. ZZzzz Depends on my mood, I will blog those days which dun have so many photos and activities one. -_-" Oh yah, CH, you also havent upload your Taiwan and HCMC trip leh. =p

One week has passed since I came back from HK and I'm still sick. Sian.... Had high fever last friday that the doctor give me an injection. The doctor told me that my fever is very high and I ask the doctor how high is it? 39.2 degree celsius. No wonder I feel giddy and illusion the whole afternoon. Hope my body recover faster so can eat some tonic. After taking these western medicine really make my body weaker but YQ said that if I dun take, how to recover faster? YQ keep nagging at me to take medicine loh. -_-"

Just added one sec frenz in facebook and he ask me whether I know that YQ is his ex-air force colleague. Of cos i knew and I even ask him before abt YQ. Guess he must have forgotten. Time flies, i just realised that YQ and me had been together for almost 9 mths and it's reaching a year soon. Hope that our relationship grow stronger after the incident. Well, i already know what to buy for him for our anniversary, haha... so i don't have to crack my head anymore.

Was browsing through the net when I saw Santorini photos, just wanna share how beautiful is Santorini. Hope that I can go there for honeymoon, haha... YQ heard it? Btw he dunno this blog so of cos dunno loh.

2009-03-16T10:49:00.002+08:00

Back from my HK, Macau & Shenzhen trip. Haiz, fall sick on the 2nd last day so recuperating now. This is one of my trip where i didnt bought much things cos didnt do much shopping, majority of the time is sightseeing & eating. Our total luggage back is only 17kg n we had an allowance of up to 40kg for 2 person, lol.

Sometimes people only learn to treasure n cherish when things happen. How come leh? Hmm... But i'm those who will treasure n cherish even nothing happens cos i dun wanna live wif regret.

2009-03-04T11:32:00.004+08:00

So so so happy, i pass my driving test at the 1st attempt. So quite nervous for the past few days when practising the circuit, really dun have confidence. YQ console me tt if i didnt pass he'll still come n fetch me, ><", of cos he must come n fetch me mah.

Noe what, i didnt paid attention to my instructor the day before that he ask me to reach BBDC at 10.30am although my test time is 11.45am. I was still at home at around 10.45am when my instructor call me n ask me where i am. Alas, i immediately change my clothes and called Joe and ask him where he is as he mentioned ytd that he coming to pick me up. Lucky he was reaching my home and we immediately went to BBDC. I was quite tense as everything went haywire from start. After meeting my instructor, went for a short drive to warm up. Then my instructor guide me to the 2nd level and ask me to sit inside the room and wait.

Was pretty scared in the room before the driving test. Heard those testers telling the previous batch on their mistakes, some made quite a lot of mistakes, one even dunno where to turn in when the tester ask to go back to BBDC. There were abt 11 candidates and I was the 3rd last to be called by my instructor. My ex-colleague tester is a Malay and she told me that he's v nice. Hmm... those called before me got a few are Malay testers and i was thinking my instructor likely would be a Chinese. When my name was called, he's a Malay and he look so kind hearted. My confidence start to gain. In the circuit, i didnt make any major mistakes, was pretty scared of S-course n slope cos for the past few days, not really good at these. For normal and parallel parking wise, i done it at the 1st attempt, no reversal to be done. Phew... Then the tester told me that we can going outside the circuit and my route is 10. My instructor said that Bukit Batok route is easier than Teck Whye route. I oso didnt make any major mistake, got check blind spot, traffic light didnt change suddenly, stop when pedestrians are crossing the road. Soon, i drive back to BBDC and the tester ask me to follow him back to the room. He ask me to sit at a desk and wait for him. He came back shortly with the result. Vola, i pass and only got 8 points deducted. Haha... Even lesser than YQ cos he got 12 marks, hahahahaha.....

Now finally i can drive but i gotta practice parking without poles first. Yeh!!!!!!!!!

2009-03-01T22:53:00.002+08:00

Yeh... finally found the 2 songs i want: The show by Lenka. Heard this in the movie "New in Town" but this song is not in the trailer. Had been searching this song without knowing the song name and singer, it's really so difficult. Then out of the blue, i type some of the lyrics i heard in the trailer in google and vola, i found the song.

The other song is the movie suspect x theme song. The song name is Saiai 最爱 by KOH+. Watched the movie wif YQ ytd n heard this song.

Was really surprised that YQ found these 2 songs for me but i found it on my own too. I do appreciate YQ effort in searching these 2 songs for me.

2009-02-28T09:32:00.006+08:00

Ever since i came back from Msia trip, i was so occupied that i didnt have a chance to blog on the trip. Haiz... now got Taiwan trip, HCMC trip n Msia trip n 1 wk later, i'm gg HK. Phew... so many trips havent blog yet. -_-" How come now i'm not working still so busy leh???

Tue - Went out for dinner wif YQ to Mandai Orchidville. Less than 10 customers, guess bcos of wkday so not many ppl. We ordered the signature dish - Pork Knuckle and Buddha Jump over the wall. Lucky we didnt order rice otherwise we surely could not finish. The pork knuckle portion is huge!!! In the menu, the pork knuckle come wif noodle but the restaurant run out of noodle so we had pork knuckle wrap in lettuce. It's simply delicious!!!

Nice ambience
Buddha jump over the wall

Pork Knuckle

Wed - Had driving lesson in the morning and met Joe. Went back home and had lunch. Discuss some of his company matters until evening. The day just passed like this.

Thu - Had driving lesson in the morning and met Joe again. We went to town to have lunch wif my ex-colleague but in the end didnt cos my ex-colleague is too busy to have lunch wif us. It was raining super heavily. I wonder if i were to drive on such day, how am i able to see the cars in front? Went to ICA after that to enquire on something. Then we went to Paya Lebar cos Joe gotta collect something from his supplier. I'm just sat in his car and being drove around. Then we went to AMK Hub to catch Marley and Me. Nice movie, adorable Labrador dog, sad ending. Well, i wldnt adopt a pet cos i doubt i'll bear to see it die earlier than me and it's a lot of commitment.

Fri - YQ accompanied me to Woodland Polyclinic to have blood test. Gotta go back again next fri to see the medical report. My blood pressure seems a bit low but doctor say it's alrite, it's high blood pressure that gotta pay attention to. After that, we went to Expo for the Natas travel fair. Lucky we came a bit earlier otherwise sure no parking lots. Wow, the queue is super long, queue from Hall 4 all the way to nearly the entrance of Expo MRT station. Guess those in front shld be start queueing dunno wat time in the morning. We head to those tourism booths once we went in. haha... collect those travel brochures and some freebies like compass keychain, cardholder, fans. Saw the mock wedding ceremony at the Korea Tourism Booth. Meet Suqin as she is booking the airtix for the Europe trip. Too bad that the period they gg clash wif my exams dates hence i gotta give up. Well, the tix Suqin bought is Emirates open jaw tix which depart from SIN and land in London and the return depart from Athens and land in Singapore. and cost $1,030. Thinking abt it, it's indeed cheap cos i read from sm1 blog that return Lufthansa airtix to Munich cost $898. The $1,030 consist of $50 travel agent charge so the airtix cost $980. The difference of $82 is definitely cheaper than taking a flight from Athens back to London to board the flight back to Singapore. Somemore Suqin is a good travel planner, if i were to go, i wldnt have to do the research alone. Sometimes, a lot factors take into account in a trip. Time, Money, Companion.

Korean wedding

Sat- Meeting my sis @ Orchard for lunch later and gg free 30min spa @ True Spa. Then gg Westmall to shop for a while b4 gg for my driving lesson at 5pm. Then after that, meeting YQ for dinner. Shld be gg to Jurong Point cos i wanna buy shoe. Haiz... this wk just gonna end like this.

2009-02-15T11:08:00.003+08:00

We celebrate our V-day @ East Coast ytd. As YQ had not recovered from his cough, we abandon our BBQ plan. We had hotdog instead. I prefer the hotdog to be consumed while it's hot as the bread was a bit hard when cold. However the hotdog still taste yummy.

Our picnic

He is so cuteeeee

YQ said tt i always complain that he is unromantic so he ask me whether is he romantic today? -_-" Ok, u pass today. Haha... I like the rose colour and the rose smell nice. The gift is a heart shape necklace, YQ said tt i seldom wear necklace so tt's y he bought the necklace. For Xmas, he bought me a pair of earring but i dun have earhole n he didnt even noe it. ><" Gotta have my ears pierce next mth. Then he say maybe next time he buy me bracelet or foot bracelet since i dun wear any. Hmm.... YQ oso bought me quite a huge card, yah it's huge compared to the card i bought. Thank you dear for everything.

Gift from YQ

2009-02-14T10:05:00.003+08:00

Two weeks has gone n yet i feel tt i didnt do anything much. Almost finalising my research for HK trip. Considered one thing done. Gotta blog my HCMC & taiwan trip. No more excuse.

Going for a trip to Kuantan wif my friend Joe for abt 4 days. He is going there for biz trip n ask me whether i wanna go. Since i had not been there before, just go there n walk walk loh. Initially YQ object to it but it's my decision anyway. I promise him tt i'll take care of myself. He must be worried abt me.

Gonna bake cakes n muffin after i came back from Kuantan. Bought the ingredients and the first item i gonna make is Tiramisu. Hopefully it turn out to be edible. -_-"

Initially YQ plan to bring me to somewhere for dinner on fri as we gg pitch tent on sat but he fall sick. Poor thing. Nvm, we gonna have a make up dinner after i came back. This gonna be the first valentine day spend wif him n we intend to pitch tent n BBQ. But due to him havent fully recovered yet, i decided not to BBQ. As usual, gonna prepare salad, this time i prepared two type of salad - Thousand Island Saland & Ceasar Salad (i prefer ceasar salad but YQ like thousand lsland salad more) and boiled potato plus sour cream n bacon bits. We decided to buy hotdog from IKEA to satisfy my craving, haha... Thus should be sufficient for our dinner as i usually dun eat much for dinner.

Last of all, Happy valentine day to everyone!

2009-02-08T11:52:00.002+08:00

Dada.... I cut my hair... easier to maintain.... went to m'sia on fri to cut my hair on fri.

2009-02-08T11:10:00.005+08:00

Went for pinic @ Botanic Garden ytd. Haha... YQ had not been to Botanic Garden before. ><" We didnt stay there for long as YQ complain that it was hot and we left after finishing the food. We went to buy those ingredients on thursday and the only item not bought is ceasar salad dressing. Luckily we found it at King Albert Park's Cold Storage. =) I prepared ceasar salad, 3 hamburgers, green apple and lemongrass water for the pinic. Scrumptious rite? In the end, we didnt eat the remaining 1 burger and green apple as we were quite full. Initially, tot there the salad portion shld be alright for both of us but turn out to be quite a lot. Too many ingredients liao. I bought 100g of those mixed salad vege, next time should buy 50g only. The croutons, hard boiled egg, salmon and parmasan cheese adds up to be quite a lot. YQ comment that i seldom prepare food for him and i retort that i'm so busy so where got time? Must also have the time to buy those ingredients loh. Nowadays more time, so can prepare food for him, bake cakes and muffin. Haha... Now he say i v good to him... xp

Food for pinic

Ceasar salmon salad

Nice rite?? Hehe...

Went to Flora Nursery @ Thomson Road wif YQ after working half day on Sat. This is my last day in the place where i had spent my 4 n 1/2 yrs. I dun a sense of sadness when I left, mayb I had felt tired for so long. Initially we have 2 places in mind - Sentosa Flower Festival or Thomson Road but the entrance fee of $2 and parking charges of around $5 put me off n my colleague said that it's not really worth visiting cos the variety there is much lesser compared to the year before.

@ Thomson Road Nursery

We spent abt 1 hr there n YQ bought a pot of lucky bamboo. After that, we went to Mediacorp. I had not been there b4 and since we r nearby, i ask YQ to drive me there to take a look. Of cos i gotta give him the direction. ><" We drove one round outside Mediacorp as it is a restricted area. Next we went to Northpoint as we are meeting his Secondary friends there at 7pm. We went to the Cold Storage Supermarket at the basement as i check on the prices of the items which we intend to buy for our BBQ on V day. Hmm... the Cold Storage here is not big enuf cos some of the items r not sold here. Intend to go to the Jelita Cold Storage (off Holland Road) to take a look next week as it is considered the biggest Cold Storage in Singapore.

We oso went to the OCBC bank at Northpoint. Sometimes i really dun understand guys, YQ can still continue to use his OCBC ATM card which has already crack but not yet split into 2 pieces. If i didnt ask him to change it, i guess he must still be using the card until it really split into 2 pieces and cant be used.

Went to Sunset grill & pub @ Republic of Sg Flying Club inside Seletar Airbase. This place is really 鸟不生蛋, super duper wulu. Haha... YQ sec friend - Keong tot so simple so he didnt meet us at Yishun and drove there wif another 2 friends. They drove so many rounds inside Seletar airport there and still couldn't find the place. In the end, they meet us @ the circus outside Seletar airbase and follow our car, haha....

There are altogether 10 of us, YQ had made a reservation for 8 people and 2 more turns up. 7 of them are YQ sec friends whom i had seen 5 of them before at the Xmas eve dinner and including me and Samuel who is YQ ex air-force colleague. We bought Yusheng there to Lo hei and as it serves western food, there were no chopstick so we use fork instead, haha...

Lo hei
Cheers...

The food here is nice.... n the signature dish is the bufflo wings from Level 1-10. We ordered half dozen of Level 3 & 4 bufflo wings respectively. Me of cos choose level 3 and it's really HOT HOT HOT. I ate pork rib which is quite yummy while YQ choose steak.

Taking a snap before i eat the bufflo wing

Hmm... Wat is ur intention???

This flower is not from YQ, just for taking photo only...

Best actor & actress

I didnt noe that it's Meizhen bday. YQ only told me that we going to his sec class gathering. Hmm... If i noe, would have prepared a present for Meizhen.

Was sick for quite some times since returning from HCMC, diarrhoea followed by sore throat followed by running nose then block nose, now still feel tt body is heaty, not fully recovered yet. Haiz.... Guess must be accumulation of tiredness.... body seems to fall sick quite easily nowadays. Nvm, another 15 more days to go n i shall have complete time freedom.

Here are the list tt i gotta do from Feb onwards:

-Go jogging at least 3-4 times a week, super lack of excercise for so long

-Brush up my driving skills so that i have sufficient practice before my driving test on 3 Mar

-Blog my remaining 3 days taiwan trip and HCMC trip

-Clear my wardrobe

-Watch all the variety shows i download

-Achieve level 28 for my sushido game

-Plan for my trip to HK, Macau n Shenzhen in Mar

-Study for my remaining 2 ACCA modules after returning from my trip

Guess that's all that i can think of at this moment.

There always ups n downs in life. Treat this as a break in my life.

2008-12-25T11:17:00.002+08:00

Today will be flying off to HCMC for 6 days. Other than CH, discovered that YQ frenz also gg to HCMC. Only pack my luggage ytd nite and this morning. Hmm... smhow i dun really feel v excited abt the trip anymore, mayb i'm just too tired. Hope tt this feeling will end soon.

Merry Xmas to all my frenz and a better 2009 ahead!

2008-12-07T09:20:00.004+08:00

Went to watch Cape 7 @ Yishun ytd. It's about Aga, a band singer, who returns to Hengchun with frustration. Tomoko is a Japanese model assigned to organise a local warm-up band for the Japanese superstar's beach concert. Together with five other ordinary Hengchun residents who never expected to be anybody in life, they formed an impossible band.

This is a humourous and captivating movie although i feel that more shld be told on the love story between a Japanese teacher and a local girl in Hengchun 60 years ago. N i was a bit surprise tt Tomoko and Aga just smhow fall in love cos they dun really had much interaction except arguing about the band and composing a new song. Cant be bcos of their one night stand tt they fall in love? The most touching part in the movie is when Aga hug Tomoko asking her not to leave or he'll leave wif her. Wow..... So romantic...

2008-12-06T09:44:00.003+08:00

Went to the doctor to receive my medical report ytd. Everything is ok except that the bilirubin in my liver is marginally higher than normal and the phosphate level is mildly elevated. My bilirubin level is 36 which is higher than the normal range of less than 25 and my phosphate level is 1.5 which is higher than the normal range of 0.6 -1.45. As my other results are alright and the cause is uncertain, the doctor arrange me to go for another checkup in end Feb. Hopefully everything will be alright.

2008-11-23T12:16:00.005+08:00

Dropping to update you gals that i'm still surviving although my last blog post is almost a mth ago.

1) Yup, exam is coming n i have yet to start studying. Wish me good luck. ><"

2) Pass my final theory test on sat so now i can book my TP. Yeh!!! Now the slot is mid Feb but my instructor ask me to book Mar slot cos he say Feb is CNY. Later i realise tt actually CNY is in end Jan. Book Mar slot is also better cos at least i got more time to practice. Now is already end Nov so means i got 3 mths to practice for my TP. Gonna take 2 lessons a week otherwise where got enuf time to practice? Must practice, practice n practice.

3) Booked my Ho Chi Minh accomodation n also found a free tour guide for the city tour. More or less finalised on the places of interest to visit and the itinerary for the 6 days. Now left with food. Complied a list so now waiting for YQ to sort it out. Must give him some work to do otherwise all the work is done by me. V tireding but i oso enjoyed planning cos in the process, i get to know a lot of things.

4) Gonna be out of job soon. Yes. I really gonna leave my job, latest by Mar09. Somehow, i breakthrough and realise that i really dislike my current job to the extent that i hate going back to my office and the passion cant return back. Time to let go cos for the past one year, i did not give a clear indication. Gonna make use of the time to concentrate on my studies, my driving lesson and others which i wanna do which i have yet to do. Well, i may help my friend who just start up his company n get some pocket money for myself.

5) Went for body check-up last mon. Result will only be out on 5 Dec. Hope everything is ok. 1st time went for health screening. YQ accompany me the whole morning for the health screening n after that, we went East Coast cycling with his friend. Less crowded on wkday n it give me the sense of tranquility.

6) Havent decide wat places to go in 2009. Tentatively, it'll be a short trip in the 1st half of 2009, a kelong trip and mayb a longer trip in 2nd half of 2009. For the short trip, we were thinking of Bangkok as i had not been there before but with the political turmoil, wonder if it'll be safe and how long it will last. For the long trip, we were thinking of Hokkaido as we can choose to self drive ourselves, by then i shld get my license le bah. Well, everything is only KIV and no solid and concrete paln has been made. Well, if really gonna go Japan, then gotta save for the trip.

2008-10-19T18:38:00.006+08:00

Went to MacRitchie reservoir last week wif YQ n track for 10km in 5hrs. Finally manage to persuade YQ to wake up early on sat morning cos he always give me excuses not to wake up early. Exhausted after walking for such a long distance. Havent been walking for such a long distance since the Apr @ Alishan. Refer to my travelogue for photos.

This year, i eaten 3 bday cake on 3 consecutive days - Fri wif my colleague n boss, Sat wif YQ n Sun wif my family. Celebrate my bday wif YQ @ East Coast. Finally we get to pitch tent cos the previous 2 times, some things crop up n in the end it was cancelled. Actually it gonna rain when YQ picked me up in the late noon but when we reached East Coast, it was so sunny. We were so hungry after setting up the tent. I prepared salad, potato n hotdog. I retort that he shld be the one preparing the food cos it's my bday mah. Then YQ replied tt if he prepare the food then i drive. I replied no problem if he dares to let me drive. Haha...

Our picnic food

Woman's age is secret, haha...

He bought a bday cake for me. I really enjoyed the moment spent wif him. Hope to have more time wif him cos he's really super busy nowdays. Haiz... wat to do, as his gf, gotta be accomodating to him.

Yup, next sat i gonna learn driving cos i had found a driving instructor. Haha... my colleague was quite amused wif me for finding a driving instructor who drive mitsubishi lancer (cos YQ n one of my frenz drive lancer), so my colleague said that she gotta find a instructor who drive mazda CX7 cos her husband's car is CX7 (LOL cos CX7 is auto not manual car). Then her husband was super hilarious n joke that if YQ drive lamborghini, then gotta borrow his lamborghini cos where got driving instructor drive lamborghini. ><"

2008-10-06T22:43:00.004+08:00

Hehe... i pass my basic theory test last friday so now can book my final theory test when there is suitable slot. Saw ppl walked out of the room within 15min after taking the test. Didnt know that dun have to stay for the whole 50min, haha... so in the end i finished my test within 30mins. Then on sat went back to BBDC to get my PDL (Provisional Driving Licence) and waited for 1.5hr, so sian... shld have bought something to read to pass the time. A guy who was sitting next to me was so excited that he passed his TP that he keep telling his dad behind that he wanna rent car to drive his frenz around. His dad was warning him that he just passed so shldnt be so rush. Orbi, he missed his queue number n gotta retake the queue number. So dun be too proud. =p

Went to buy the final theory book and the questionnaire book after that. 600 questions, do until siao loh.... Now hope that there is suitable time slot for my test... pray.... dun wanna wait too long n gotta find a private instructor for practice. Done my calculation, private instructor is much cheaper and hopefully the whole process will not cost me >$1K. YQ say shld be OK one, haha... he got much confidence in me. Yup, gonna ask him to teach me those basic stuff abt car(of cos not let me drive) so that i can get myself familiar wif it n can learn much more faster.

Start a blog spree @ http://in123style.blogspot.com/ wif my sis... hehe... quite tempting to shop online...

2008-09-21T20:39:00.010+08:00

Had been neglecting my blog for the past 2 wk except posting photos taken @ west coast. Well, shall start from where i stop at my 2nd last post.

I had reach the point of feeling tt going to work is a torture for me. I gotta drag myself to work everyday which i really hate it. I gonna be on holiday indefinitely from Nov onwards. This is something which i really look forward to very much. Hack care the economy, hack care the perception of others, my body need a rest. Now without any commitment, i have the luxury to do so. If i dun rest now, when will i have the chance? When i retire? That's so far far away, i dun even noe wat will happen tml. I dun wanna work just for the sake of working. I had lost my passion in this job n no matter how, i cant find the passion back anymore. Time to move on.

Well, intend to spend this period of time preparing for exam. Havent even read a single page of my notes yet. Was wondering whether to enrol for 1 or 2 papers? Left wif just 2 papers n reaching end of the tunnel soon. In a dilemma...

Also can learn practical driving classes during my break, hopefully i pass my basic theory test in the 1st attempt. Must be surprised y suddenly i decided to learn driving? Hmm... Mayb the power of love is too great to reject, haha... joking lah... YQ did encourage me to learn so in the event when he feel tired or sick, then i can drive. Well, this is part of the reason lah. Mayb when u r in love, tend to always think of the other half loh... I do feel tt it can be quite tireding for him to drive everytime when we went out so i gonna help him share his load loh. It's not a impromtu decision cos i did think carefully before making this decision. Learning driving means gotta spend $$ n less time wif him when i learn on wkend. But now situation changes, so i can learn on wkday n can learn more times a wk.

N definitely gonna finished blogging my taiwan trip before i go for my vietnam trip. ><" Only blog until day 3 loh... still uncompleted job, WIP for so long. Hopefully can go for a short break in October. N hope tt it is the last wkend of Oct so that YQ can join me, otherwise i feel tt no matter how much i enjoy the trip, it seems to be lack of something without him. YQ is also concerned abt me gg without him. Had i grown to be not so independent now? Hmm....

Met up wif my 1st friendster frenz last wk. It had been 2 years since we last keep in contact. He had become more mature and he comment tt i become more 女人味, haha... indirectly saying tt i'm older. Heard from him tt my ex is married. Well, i dun seem to feel anything at all. Married then married loh. A lot of things had happen since we last contact n my friendster frenz's life experience for the past 2 yrs almost entertain me for tt nite. Time just cant turn back the clock, if u dun cherish it, once gone, it'll be gone forever. He was quite surprised tt i'm attached n yet i can go out wif him alone. Alamak, when did i become YQ prisoner loh? I told him tt although i'm attached, i have my own freedom loh. Even if i'm married, i still have my own freedom. Do all the attached gals gotta seek permission before seeing any guys frenz? Eventually i'll tell YQ but it may be after i met up wif my guy frenz. Of cos i noe the limit loh, i cant possibly meet my guys frenz every week n neglect YQ otherwise he sure drown me in pig coop, hehe...

Well, for those frenz who are still single, dun feel tt u r lacking anything, just enjoy the freedom that you have. Sometimes thinking back, i really dun feel any regret being single for the past 4 yrs cos otherwise i may not be wif YQ now. Everyone's turn will eventually come. There's bound to be ups n downs but being able to withstand all these will stengthen the relationship. Both YQ n i always look at the brighter side of it so whenever we squabble over something, we will think tt we'll understand each other better after each squabble. YQ always tell me to enjoy the process of being together....

Went to West Coast wif YQ on Sunday. Initially wanna play lantern on Sat but in the end we went to watch soccer match. Haiz... How come everytime when i watch Man u match, man u lose? Although YQ is an Arsenal fan but everytime Liverpool scored, he would yeh which irritates me, ANGRY!

On Sunday morning, went downstair to buy lantern so tt little boy can play lantern loh. Meet YQ in the late afternoon and we headed to West Coast as he feel tt East Coast wld be packed wif ppl. Havent been playing lantern for a long long time, think since primary school. Had quite a fun time playing lantern, candles n fireworks wif YQ. Look forward to this coming sat cos finally gonna go cycling n pitch tent. =)

Probably when i'm old, i may wanna retire overseas. Read about an article abt Holiday at home where the Taiwanese n Koreans went for tour around their country. Was so envy of them especially a 12 yr old primary school kid went backpacking around Taiwan island with his dad after graduation. The round island journey was made popular in Taiwan following the release of a movie, Island Etude 練習曲. This film tells abt a deaf colleague student who rides his old battered bicycle around Taiwan and about his encounters along the way. This movie inspired Taiwanese to embark on similar journeys. Here goes a famous line from the movie "There are certain things that if you dont do now, you'll never get around to doing". I oso link the trailer here.

Time flies, now is September, 3 more mths to go n its time to say goodbye to 2008. By that time, I should also be saying goodbye to my current job. It's really time for me to take a break which i had longed for.

Sometimes at certain stage of ur life, if u dun do it, u'll nvr get the chance again. If i'm married n got family commitment, i wldnt have such freedom right now. If i dun cherish this opportunity now, when will i ever get the chance again?

Went for drinking at the Denise Wine Shop wif my frenz on Sunday n this is the first time tt i puke. Was feeling so giddy once i lie on my bed, the feeling was like riding on a roller coaster. Luckily i puke only when i reached home, now i understand wat is the feeling of hugging the toilet bowl to sleep. I puke n burp for almost 2 hrs before i finally zzz, stomach was feeling so uncomfortable. No more 2nd time but i must be relieve tt i noe how to get home safety. I even point out to my frenz when he is nearly turning into the wrong road.

Only told YQ abt this on Monday. Anyway i do not have to report to him where i go n whom did i went wif. I oso did not make him reporting to me where he go n whom he go wif. Each of us should have our own personal space. The most impt is we should do not lie to each other and we trust each other. I like him for not being so protective n giving me the freedom. I'm really glad i found him n waited for him to catch up wif me when we are not at the same pace initially.

Enjoying myself for today n tml....

2008-08-29T23:25:00.005+08:00

Havent been blogging for the past 1 wk. Was busy wif work n still coughing after almost 3 wks. Got phlegm. Hopefully will clear soon. Feel so scared when YQ said tt wanna bring me to hospital for scanning. I was thinking wasnt this a bit exaggerated? Well, had been eating chinese medicine and somemore chinese medicine will takes much longer time. Eat western medicine make me feel drowsy n weak. Hate western medicine.

Hehe... Tml i gonna get my treat from him for passing my exam. Yeh, havent been eating Mache for quite a long time n got craving. Then few days ago got craving for soft shell crab, tot can satisfy my craving but in the end due to work, i only knock off @ 8.30pm. So in the end didnt go to the sushi shop @ AMK to eat soft shell crab. Haiz... Y when i wanna leave early, surely cant leave early? I really HATE it!!! Cant be so so so coincidence everytime. Gotta seriously think abt it. Haiz... poor YQ, wait from 7pm to 9pm until his stomach is super hungry. Ah.... When can i eat the soft shell crab? Thinking of it makes my saliva drool. Was kidding wif YQ tt if a pregnant me got craving for food then wat wld he do? Cos the husband gotta get up from their bed when his pregnant wife got craving for food at midnite, haha....

2008-08-18T13:58:00.004+08:00

Was sick for the past 1 wk. Haiz.... took MC today n rest at home. Slept for almost the whole day ytd n yet at nite i can still turn in. Guess i didnt have enuf rest. Must be... Make a pact wif YQ on our wkend meeting.

Yeh... i pass my P1 so which means 2 more papers to go. Finally after a yr, i pass one paper. Haiz... I oso dunno y i had the intuition tt i can pass this paper after attempting. Well, jia you sis n all my frenz. As the saying goes, Failure is the mother of success... I gotta clear my remaining 2 papers. N i'm gonna enrol for driving lessons. Still got so many things to do....

2008-08-17T16:34:00.003+08:00

Met up wif Celine & Diana on fri nite. Had Fish & Co @ Park Mall. Like the ambience here. There is live performance on Fri nite from 7.30 -9.30pm, just find tt the music is a bit too loud. Cant even hear the conversation properly. Yup, best wishes to Celine, glad tt u found him and u didnt wait long. Nah, dun always be so pessimistic the last time, see, now u found the rite one. It just a matter of time.

Watched Money no enuf 2 on sat wif YQ. Humourous n yet touching at the end. Guess most Singaporean wld encounter the same situation as wat was reflected in the movie. Went to the Singapore Flyer after we had our dinner. YQ has 2 tix @ $10 otherwise i doubt i'll take the Singapore Flyer. OMG, we waited almost 15-20 min just for a parking lot, 1 hr to queue for the ticket, another 1/2 hr to take the ride. The ride was abt 40min. Hmm.... so so loh. Once is enuf.

2008-08-11T20:39:00.005+08:00

He didnt propose to me so dun get me wrong into wondering y i talk abt this suddenly. Just that he mentioned abt something n i suddenly realise tt i'm of age of getting married, actually all along i'm of age to get married once i'm above 21. Even below 21 oso can get married lah. On one hand, i dun wanna get married to late but on the other hand, i feel tt i have some phobia of getting married, probably watch too much dramas, listen to too much story etc. I have a happy family compared to some of my frenz and i do feel blissful although my family is not rich. Sometimes i wonder y i had tt phobia? In the past, i did dream of getting married by 25. Then when i became single, i told myself mayb before 30? If by 30 still cant get married, mayb 35? I think it's commitment tt give me the phobia. Wat's really bind a couple together forever?

I read it somewhere before that a couple should at least be together for a year before they get married, it's just like there are 4 seasons a year, so meaning tt shld experience it before the cycle repeat again.

My mom used to say tt a couple get married when 爱冲昏了头. She oso said tt getting married n setting up a family is part n parcel of life. Probably.... Anyway i'm not thinking too much abt it now cos i havent even experience 4 seasons yet, just enjoyed the process of being together wif YQ. I feel tt i havent noe him well enough but there is a phrase saying tt some couple break up bcos they knew each other too well, isnt it ironic? Relationship can be v complicated sometimes so my single frenz dun have to envy me. Eventually u all will encounter it. A lot of people only see things on the surface.

2008-08-10T11:16:00.003+08:00

We make new pets on Friday!!! Quite a lot of ppl were either having national day buffet or company's function. So sad... our company is not tt patriotic... haha.... Anyway we console ourself by making new pets... hehe.... Mine is the chicken...

Our new pets

Went prawning wif my colleagues on Saturday. It hard to organise an activity wif my colleagues cos 1 colleague who is married always gotta accompany her husband on wkend. (Btw she is only ROM n has not held customary wedding). There was once we also organise activites but in the end only me & other 2 colleagues cos in the end this colleague gotta accompany her husband. Then coincidentally tt this wkend her husband is not around so she suggest go prawing as this is one of her fav activities on wkend. Well, my colleague oso noe tt i'm not tt available now so she ask me few weeks ago. I sure ok one loh cos YQ is definitely working on National day. He so patriotic, haha.... Smtimes i really feel tt my colleague husband is too possessive, he dun allow my colleague to travel wif her frenz. There was once where we wanna go Tioman on Good Friday wkend but in the end, the plan was abandon cos she couldnt go. Hmm... My colleague only go overseas wif her husband. I noe that her husband is protective of her but isnt he too protective? Well, if my boyfriend or husband is like this, I sure quarrel wif him. I wanna go where wif whom is my freedom loh... so which means my boyfriend or husband cannot be so protective. Actually i'm oso a bit unhappy when last time, we organise a chill out activity after work n in the end bcos her husband didn't study at home n want her to accompany him, she left the 3 of us dunno wat to do loh. If i had promise my frenz or colleague for an outing, i wldnt bcos of my boyfriend had a last minute change then abandon them. Isn't this a bit too much? Somemore the chance of meeting my bf is definitely much frequent than meeting my frenz. Just 1 less chance of seeing him wldnt make me 1 less limb or wat loh. A promise is a promise. I make myself available n I really dislike it when people who dun honour their promise. So tt's y after tt, I nvr organise any activity and this time is my colleague who organise.

We went to prawing at Bishan. Went there once before wif YQ n his frenz. We paid $30 for 3 hrs. Prawning is not cheap hence not an activity for every wkend, otherwise sure bankrupt v fast, haha... My luck today is the best among my colleagues, caught 6-7 prawns and caught a v v v big one.... Everyone was wowing when they saw i caught such a big one.... One colleague's luck was not so good today n only manage to catch one, so her prawn is the most expensive $30. After tt, we BBQ the prawns, it's so so so delicious wif just some salt sprayed on top. Yummy.... Hehe... next time gonna ask YQ go prawning. Last time i only watched him so was quite bored n somemore he's those type who really concentrate loh.

The big big prawn

Me & the big prawn

My colleagues n I

Reached home around 6plus and watched the NDP parade. I had not been watching for many years cos i feel tt every year is more or less the same. I oso feel tt not watching does not make me less patriotic. Actually i watch it is to catch the Black Knight performance, read on the Strait Times that there is a heart shape performance. It was spectacular, if watch it live definitely much better. Must also thank those who were working so hard behind the scene, including my dear.

2008-08-03T10:33:00.002+08:00

My sis had set up her shopping spree blog: http://www.in123style.blogspot.com Hmm... she seems to put in quite a lot of effort to creating this blog. Not easy loh... On top of her work, she gotta attend ACCA class twice a wk. But at least she can knock off on the dot most of the time n reach home earlier than me. However i did highlight to her that her blog must have enough publicity otherwise how do ppl get to noe ur blog n even if ppl visit ur blog, they may not buy if there is not much variety. Well, as long as she like it n is happy, wat's the big deal?

2008-08-01T23:54:00.008+08:00

Sometimes i wonder wat's the purpose of working? Work so hard just for the purpose of getting paid at end of the mth? To satisy 3 meals, needs n wants? Am i oso 1 of them in the rat race? If so, shldnt i consider myself pathetic? People change job bcos they want a higher pay, cant cope wif the stress, want a job that safisy their ambitions... I really wonder y i stay on for so long when all the people around me had already change their job at least once. Am i the minority breed?

I do feel tt he is really quite mean sometimes. Dun he noe tt people got their own activities on wkend? Wkday had been spent on work, work n work. Already feel so tired after work that i dun even feel like going out on wkday. It's only come to friday nite, sat n sun that I finally had time for my own personal thing. Make people work until late on Friday nite, work the whole day on Saturday, stupid to shift the office furniture on Friday evening (shit, move for so many damn times already). I really cant imagine that if the next few mths I gotta work like hell on wkday n whole day on Saturday. Yet said until so nice that the govt now is ecouraging pro-family life n he is shifting towards tt. Just hear will do. People will have a tolerance level, if i feel that my personal life is being sacrifies too much just for the purpose of earning more money, I may choose the earlier.

If eventually i were to settle down n have kids, probably i would choose to be a full-time mom. Maybe since young, my mom is 24/7 by my side n although she may not give me lots of monetary satisfaction - no expensive nor tons of toys, the only overseas trip that i went when young was to my relative house in Malaysia, my first plane experience is using my own earn money. But my mom really give me lots of love by being there for me whenever I need her n I would oso want to do the same to my kids. Although there are plenty of working mom juggling wif kids n work, I do not want to miss out the chance of my kid 1st time talking, 1st time calling me mummy, 1st time falling down while learning to walk.... Aint these more precious which cant be bought using money? I'm not critising that working mom are not good but it's really my personal opinion.

Time flies.... Celebrated our 1st mth on Tue. Received a bouquet of pink roses n a cake from YQ. Feel quite guilty that I didnt prepared anything for him cos didnt noe that he wld come to look for me today. Tot he gotta work late as he didnt reply my sms. Set. I gonna bake things for him when i got the time n chance.

Came across this handicraft website http://www.cubeecraft.com while reading my frenz blog n she was doing this when her boss was not around. Hehe... Since boss was not around on friday afternoon, my colleagues n I oso try doing it. Super cute loh... We even choose different wallpaper to take shoots of our pets, haha.... It's a pity that we dun have colour printer. But anyway we really have fun making n taking shoots of our "pet".

Puffer fish, Toronto & Mr Saturn (this is mine)

2008-07-22T23:15:00.003+08:00

Really v v v surprised n shock when YQ came to look for me after his work. I tot he was joking when he ask me to look out of my window n i didnt saw him so i reprimand him y play such a joke on me? Then he oso follow e joke telling me tt he was joking, feel quite disappointed when he said tt he was kidding. Then he ask me to look out of my window again n i was a bit angry telling him is it v fun to play such a joke on me? He keep asking me to look again n when i saw him, i was super shock. I just couldnt hide my happiness when i saw him. Smhow was feeling a bit down today due to work n i sms him telling him how good wld it be if he is by my side consoling me n giving me a hug. His appearance rite in front of me really wash away my unhappiness during the day. Thank you YQ for your surprise. I really appreciate it.

It's 11.30pm, time to zzz.

2008-07-20T16:20:00.004+08:00

Went to watch the Dancing sky, an aerial performance by Studio Festi @ National Museum on sat nite. This performance is definitely much more interesting than the performance Hydro Sapiens by The Lunatics which we watched at Bedok reservoir. Probably that performance is too chim for us to understand. Both of us really enjoyed today performance. B.t.w blogged abt the performance in my travelogue. Only watch the 1st half of the performance and it's already 12am loh. Walk to Selegie and had 豆花&油条 for supper. Dunno y feel so hungry that my stomach was growling. Lucky YQ didnt heard it. =p

Went to East Coast for a stroll since we were quite full after supper. Guess he must be giving in to me when i'm protesting that we met for only 4 hrs today. On one hand, i wanna spend more time wif him but on the other hand, i dun wan him to be too tired. Hmm... i'm oso fickle minded but deep inside my heart, i do wan to spend more time wif him. Shhhh....

Didnt noe tt so many ppl pitched tent in East Coast on wkend, we were suprised to see so many tents. YQ was so crappy that he told me tt can save electricity at home by pitching tent in East Coast n i told him in the future he shld stay in a tent permanently in East Coast. YQ suggest that we also pitch tent in East Coast one day, probably next mth. Although i not tt enthu in pitching tent but the thought of gazing star n seeing the sunrise did make me interested. When u r at the most boring place doing the most boring thing wif your love one, it dun seem boring at all. No stars again today... haiz... Just enjoyed the sea breeze n his company.

Really enjoyed the time spent wif YQ although it's short.

2008-07-19T11:48:00.006+08:00

Received the clothes which ordered online wif my sis. OMG, this mth seems tt spend quite a lot wow. Well, i ordered 5 piece of clothes while my sis ordered 4 peice of clothes n plus freight charges, i only spend ~ $65 which is less than $10 more than my sis wow. Cheap cheap cheap, where can get such price in Singapore.

Finally meet up with YQ on friday. Havent been meeting him for the past 5 days, he had been knocking off quite late this week, normally by the time he knock off, i wld have been in dreamland. When i wake up, he is still zzzz. Guess it's inevitable. Probably in the next few mths, it'll be b me who will be busy.

Wanna eat Alaska crabs @ Ang Mo Kio on friday but he was stuck in jam n late by 30min. Haizz.... gotta queue for 45min so i change my mind. In the end, we end up eating sushi @ Suki-sushi. Nvm, next time got chance gonna ask him bring me eat Alaska crabs.

Went to Lower Seletar reservoir after our dinner. Too bad no stars today. Star gazing seems to be our fav hunt nowadays. Well, had tons n tons of things which we havent did. Really enjoyed the time spent wif him. Too bad, the time we spent together is quite limited. I complained to him tt we really gonna meet once every 5 days meh? Then he joke tt m i being possessive? I retort back tt in tt case then we shall meet once a mth, haha... then now it's his turn to protest. =p

Finally took a photo wif him ytd. He had requested for a few times but i keep insisting not to take photo wif him. Give tons of excuses like my hp camera dun take good shot @ nite, no beautiful scenary... (all these r facts anyway). I told him tt when we go Vietnam can takes lots of photo n I even joke tt if after taking photo, then when he miss me, only look at the photo we took n dun meet me how? Haha... As wat Carina Lau said, guys r like kids sometimes, I do agree wif her. In the end, i give in to him n took a shot. My sis comment tt he look chubby, lol.

He's working again today. Had been working for the past dunno how many sat already. Nvm, i got my own things to do then meet him at nite after he knock off. Well, he comment that i'm an independent gal whom do not need him 24/7. Yah yah yah, i said tt if in the future, we r together for 24/7, he'll be sick of it.

2008-07-16T22:51:00.004+08:00

Haiz... feeling blue this morning... if i had knew it, i would had left 15 min later ytd. Saving all the music to my ears this morning.

YQ is really v good to me, although i sms him telling him i feel blue but i'm ok, he call me asking me how i am. N i'm really v v v touched when he sms me. He used A-Z to describe me n he tot all the words himself. If he's right in front of me, i'll surely give him a big hug. He really cheer me up today. Although he is not physically beside me but i really feel his presence.

Dedicate one of my fav song Angel Eyes by Ace of Base to YQ:

I know that I'm not the first one
You have love in your path before me
But when your lips touched my lips it felt like I was kissing destiny
Angel eyes with your angel eyes
Will you always be there to hold me
Angel eyes I'm satisfied I don't want to hear your story
'Cause I can see the things I really want to see
I'm in love
I believe in what I'm feeling
I'd give everything up just for you
Love is devoted to those who see that the last dance, you dance with the truth
Angel eyes with your angel eyes
Will you always be there to hold me
Angel eyes I'm satisfied I don't want to hear your story
'Cause I can see the things I really want to see
In your eyes Angel eyes just want you here to hold me
Angel eyes...

2008-07-15T23:35:00.003+08:00

Had a small squabble wif YQ today. This is the 1st time we had a squabble after we r attached. Hmm.. smhow feel sad by a comment made by YQ on Sunday and today he make another comment which trigger my sadness n angriness. Aint evil smile associated wif bad intention? Well, he may not be intentional in making such comment but i do feel angry. He himself is oso angry wif me as he feel that i questioning him every little thing. I just ask him why he smile mah. Hmm, he's reply is when one is happy, cant he smile? Ok now i noe he smile bcos he is happy when being wif me. He even question y cant i just enjoy e company of us being together. Haiz... i'm concerning abt him tt's y i ask mah. I shall probe only when he's not smiling.

Guess there are more to come, maintaining a relationship is not easy. There are bound to be squabble, arguement, quarrels, shldnt be any fighting bah. But it's after all these, we will understand each other better.

I do enjoyed ur company, dear.

2008-07-11T23:20:00.002+08:00

Wanna blog on my KL trip n while bloging half way, as usual, went to read other ppl's blogs, surf other website. Still blogging halfway... My taiwan trip gonna buck up wow...

YQ sms me tt he gotta work until 1am today. Poor thing... Glad tt he leaving soon. Had not been seeing him for 5 days n i really missed him.

Smtimes find tt when he treat me too good, I still havent get used to it, probably been alone for so long. Just like ytd, actually I'm not really angry wif him n he tot i was angry so he sms n apologise. I was smiling while reading the sms. Didnt replied his sms cos feel tt there is no need to reply n the next moment he called asking whether I'm angry n y i didnt reply him. Just feel tt YQ is so cute. If he's rite in front of me, I'll be surely pulling his cheek, haha....

想念雨天，想念你。。。

2008-07-08T21:58:00.005+08:00

Life has been pretty much the same. Busy wif work during the day n dun feel like doing anything when reach home. Now wif my time gotta spend wif YQ, i even has less time for myself. A lot of things didnt done yet! My travelogue is long long overdue n my sis has already finished uploading Day 6 of our Taiwan trip. Shall update u gals wat i've done for the past few days.

Met up wif YQ on last thu after work since i'm flying off to KL on fri noon. Well, mayb when in love, you would have the tenancy to meet up wif ur love one everyday, isn't it? But we cant possibly meet everyday. He's working time is not 9-5. Smmore i think we may get sick of each other more easily if meet each other everyday. So i ask him how frequent shld we meet a wk? His reply is mayb twice a wk but must be @ least once a wk. Well, i think its quite reasonable to meet @ least once a wk, otherwise i doubt i'm dating rite? This may sound like trival things but i feel tt setting each other expectation is impt otherwise there mayb expectation gap. In the end, this will surely lead to quarrel. I oso dunno whether i'm handling it wif too much care?

Had cajun fish @ Clementi Botak Jones for dinner. YQ mentioned tt Botak Jones is quite nice n the portion is huge. I had been pestering him for quite some times before he finally brought me there. I always say he's stingy loh, not in the sense of dollar n cents. Like got good food, must share mah. Dun only tell me where n where got good food, must bring me there to try mah. Just talk no action. We ordered a large portion as i told him i dun eat much for dinner. Wow... the portion really huge. We didnt finished e food, it's just too much. YQ comment tt if everytime i say hungry n he ordered so much, in the end i cant finished n he has to finish, he will become a big fat pig, haha...

Went to West Coast for a walk after our dinner. As usual, YQ dunno the way there n i always gotta guide him. Lucky i went there b4 once n yet i can remember how to get there. Haiz... he's sense of direction is just tt bad. Lucky i dun have driving license, otherwise he sure ask me to drive. Phew...

Regarding my KL trip, shall update on my travelogue. Didnt went sight-seeing cos this trip is to visit my relatives so shld be relatively short. =p Shld be quite fast bah... Aiyah, dunno lah, really got lots of things to do. Time Time Time is not enuf!!!!

Reach Spore on Sun evening. Initially meeting YQ @ 8pm but he's late by almost more than 30min. He must have overslept from his afternoon nap, guess must be tired after playing soccer n tennis in a day. Haha... told him not to play around when i'm not around. 3 days nvr saw him n i really have e urge to see him although i did feel tired. Went to Upper Seletar Reservoir n throughout e journey i didnt talk much, must be too tired, YQ tot y i'm so quiet? He was wondering wat happen to me? Told him tt must be tired tt's y i dun talk much.

Upper Seletar Reservoir is quite a nice place. Sm1 bought me there b4 n i bought YQ there once b4. Good place for star gazing. There are 2 other places which we oso went star gazing b4. Spend my sun nite wif YQ there gazing the stars n moon n feeling his warmth. We only spend abt 1hrs there cos YQ was working 6am on Mon.

Received a present from him. It's this Taurus puppet. Surprised... Btw, he's taurus. Haha... when i told him tt this taurus gonna accompany me to sleep, YQ get jealous of this taurus wow... So kiddish of him.

Dun feel like working when my mom wake me up on mon morning, damn tired. Really have e urge to take leave n rest but i just cant. Dun wanna waste my leave so just drag myself to work. Hope wkend come fast but this sat gotta work n gonna watch Hancock wif sis this sat noon. Sat nite shld be spending wif YQ since he working on sat. Probably catch a movie @ nite cos there r few movies tt i wanna watch. Mayb may meet YQ again on sun for another movie? My GV HSBC movie pass is really using up soon. I ask YQ wldnt he find me too sticky to him if we meet consecutively over e wkends? Mayb initally when in love, u wldn't but as time goes by, u wld bah. But i gonna put my beauty sleep at a higher priority than him, so most likely sun noon is my napping time. YQ sure go gym on sun so we just have our things to occupy wif. I need sleep.

Now is already 11.30pm, gonna zzz... Turn in quite early around 10.30pm for the past 2 days. Feeling fatigue.

2008-07-02T20:03:00.009+08:00

Haven't been blogging for a couple of days. Knocked off around 7plus e last 2 days. Haiz... Smtimes it's not tt i dun wanna go home early. 人在江湖，身不由己。

Gg to KL wif Mom on this fri - sun. Booked e airtix when there is promo, $25/way including tax, damn cheap. Since mom nvr took airplane before, gg take a short flight cos scared tt she got airsick. Well, Gonna stay at my relative house.

Booked e airtix to Ho Chi Minh City, gg for 6 days 5 nite from 25 - 30 Dec. Airtix still considered cheap although i didn't manage to get e cheapest $29.99 on e return flight, only manage to book e $59.99. Doubt there wld be promo for this period so booked 1st loh. Even if got promo, i only lose out at most $50 bah cos cheapest during promo is $19.99. Plus taxes, add up to $237.98/pax. Well, i where got book ex airtix one loh? =p Now Tigerairways got separate baggage charges n convenience fee, in the future, dunno got wat charges coming up? My Vietnam trip surely be a cheap trip cos everything is cheap from accomodation, meals to shopping. Accomodation i budget abt a room for US$20/nite n meals abt US$15/day which is already quite luxury considering e standard there. As for exact budget, gonna work it out after i've done more research.

This year i went/gg to places which i wanna visit - Taiwan n Vietnam. These 2 places r the top 2 in the region my list which i wanna visit. Really glad to find companions for both trips.

I'm glad tt i meet YQ. Really feel tt i'm being blessed.

Hmm... I had make up mind. Well, i guess this is e decision i wish make all along. Had a heart to heart talk wif B ytd. Well, shall call him YQ from now although i did use another nick for him smtimes (not B).

I feel amused when YQ said tt he dun even noe whether he has e ability to take care of the current striker after he's ORD n telling me to give him time until end of e yr. By then, it's wld be 3 mths into his new job n more or less, it wld be more stable. YQ said tt if i were to quit my job next yr cos tt was my intention if gg Europe next yr. I told him tt i've my own career, i got my own financial ability so y do i need him to take care of me financially? Well, even if i were to quit my job, i dun need him to take care of me financially cos i feel tt he dun have e responsibility to take care me financially. It's not as if i wanna married n start a family now ah, just feel so amused by him. But at the same time, i do feel tt he does think abt his future.

We had agreed that he shall focused on his career. I told YQ i can be accomodating to him by giving him time. Wat i dun wan is after waiting for him, he tell me "Sorry to waste your time" or if ex-striker come back n i just become nothing. YQ said tt he dun like betrayal n ex-striker wldn't be in his future plan. Well, i dunno whether it seems like making a deal wif him cos sm ppl may perceived so. But i just wanna feel secured n committment. If he can give his committment, y can't i give him time? Mayb as i grow older, i'm no longer looking for sm1 tt i like without thinking anything abt the future. I'm looking for sm1 whom i feel tt can commit, making me feel secured n be my confident. Probably i'm looking for sm1 who i feel tt i can eventually settled down wif rather than be together for the sake of just love? Love wldn't last u forever but commitment wld. Although i may not like YQ v v v much now, cos i wldn't feel my heart beat faster when i see him but i do feel comfy wif him. Haiz... 1 thing i'm still v puzzled is YQ until now still cant figure out whether he like me or not. He said he does missed e current striker smtimes but wldn't feel tt his heart beat faster when he saw me n our bonding is not deep enuf. I really wonder if u like a person, ur heart beat wld be faster everytime meh? Then sure got heart attack one loh. Well bonding wise, it takes time... I ask YQ if by end of e yr, he still cant figure out his feeling for me? I oso dun understand y YQ said tt by then e feeling wld be figured out.

1 thing tt surprised me is tt YQ seems to have confidence in me when i ask him ain't he afraid of competitors? YQ said tt he noe tt current striker wld take care of herself so i act blur by asking taking care of wat? Well, he said tt current striker noes how to take care of her financially n her availability. Hmm... aint he too confident of himself? I told him tt if he make e current striker heartbreak again then e current striker wldn't give him anymore time. Tot tt he was too focused on driving on sat nite when i told him abt my feelings for A,C n D. Didn't noe tt actually he does listen, no wonder...

Well, there is a change in plan. We decided to postphone our europe trip to a later date, probably not next year. YQ ask me whether i mind postphoning n i told him i dun mind but dun tell me tt i gonna wait until my hair turn white loh. YQ say wldn't cos gg europe is 1 of his dream.

I'm gg wif YQ to Vietnam @ end of Dec since we r not gg Europe next yr. This is a place which i always wanna go. Well, i told YQ i can help him save a lot of $$ cos he noe i'll do my homework on booking cheap airtix, accomodation n itinerary. Hmm... ain't he taking advantage of me now? Well if i leave him wif all these things, i think my trip will cost a bomb.

I can't predict wat will happen in e future but i noe tt rite now, i do feel the sense of happiness.

2008-06-23T21:23:00.004+08:00

Smtimes i really dun understand myself. Y ain't i'm feeling happy when i shld be?

Although B say tt the ex-striker has retired n no way tt's she coming back, just like zidane. The fans missed zidane but he wldn't come back. But i replied tt although the ex-striker retire but the fan still hope tt she will come back. Just like Henrick Larsson of Sweden who came back to play for the country in EURO bcos of fans petition. I told B tt u nvr noe when e ex-striker wld come back and smmore e fan keep hoping tt she'll come back. Wat e fan missed is e ex-striker not e current striker. So it doesn't matter to e fan whether e current striker hang up e boots. There r sure to b replacement for e current striker.

B replied tt e fan can hope bt its impossible n e fan is rational enuf to noe tt e ex-striker cant perform like e past. Hmm... y say impossible when nothing is impossible in this world? Does it matter to e fan if e current striker hang up e boots???

I always believe tt when both parties mutually like each other, it's such a great thing.

I still can't figure out y i dun happy when i shld be. Is it i've decided to give up? Is it i've frozen to e extent tt it can't be melted? But 1 thing i'm sure is i dun have feeling for A, C & D. Even though C is overseas for a wk n couldn't send me home this wk, i dun missed him @ all. I did feel a bit frustrated taking bus home today when e bus dun stop @ e bus stop. I didn't take it to heart although i'm indeed feel a bit angry last fri when he didn't informed me earlier if he couldn't make it for dinner. Then i wldn't ask my mom not to cook my dinner. If it's anyone, i'm sure i wld oso be angry. But i think if B is overseas for a wk, i guess probably i'll missed him. Yet y i dun have a sense of happiness when i noe i'm e leading scorer? I really dunno......

2008-06-22T20:17:00.003+08:00

Time flies n now is sun nite. How i wish now is still sat nite n i still have another day. Y time flies n dun walk???

Hmm... I finally respond to B on my feelings after figuring out this morn. I told B wat i finally figure out in e morn n B replied tt e previous striker already retired n no way she will come back. So means wat?

2008-06-22T13:30:00.011+08:00

Since i've finished blogging abt my ytd outing, shall blog abt my feelings now.

On Friday, i mentioned tt 2 ppl make me angry rite? Silent, one of them do not have big influence on me, this i can confirmed. As for the other one, i really dunno. Actually the matter that the one who dun have big influence on me whom make me angry, i think if anyone do this, i'll oso get angry so this doesn't apply specifically to this person. As for the matter that the other one whom make me angry, guess if it's other ppl, probably i just 放飞机 when my mood is not good.

I finally ask B the question tt i wanna ask him since before my exam. Although he did reply via sms but the answer he reply me isn't the answer to the question i ask him. Although the answer he reply via sms is always the same answer n my heart has almost sank to the bottom of the ocean. I just wanna give myself one last chance cos i just wanna hear it personally from his mouth, so i put aside my 矜持 n ask him ytd. Human only lives once so i dun wanna live wif regret. 想让自己的心对得起自己吧。。。

Smtimes i really dun understand guys. I ask a simple qsn and the answer is either Yes or No but the answer given to me is neither Yes nor No. It's like I ask u whether u like orange or not? N e answer is in the past I like Orange but now, hmm... So isn't this not answering the question.

Finally B noe wat the answer i'm looking for to my question. I ask him whether he treat me good just bcos he wan me to treat him good too? Cos tt's wat i feel when he reply my sms last time n i really got pretty upset abt this. He ask me back saying recently i dun treat him as good as previously but he still continue to treat me good. Then i oso ask him is it tt he treat all his good frenz so good. He say it's different, telling me tt his sec gal frenz is just purely good frenz n the way he treat me is more than a good frenz and is different from the way he treat his other good frenz who r gals.

Now i noe tt all along B tot tt whenever i ask him those qsn, i'm like psycho him into a relationship. Really surprised when he told me tt. Now then he realised i only wanna noe the position of me in his heart. Y he dunno??? I did told him clearly before that i noe he's not ready to commit n he still can't forget his previous relationship, yet y he tot tt i'm psycho him? Just dun understand guys.

Guess wat B say? He say tt i'm currently the leading scorer. Then i ask him so this means there r other scorer? He told me that there is one but he oso puzzled how this gal got his no n msn. But he say tt he always ignore her. Now i noe my intuition can't be tt bad, when a guy really treat u so good, there is surely a motive behind. A guy can't possibly sms u everyday, call u frequently, gg out wif u frequently if he dun feel anything for u. Tt's is wat i feel so since there r A, B, C n D which i really can conclude this.

B ask me whether i'm happy to hear this. Smhow i dun have the sense of happiness. I told B tt everytime the answer he give me really make me feel v sad n after few times already, i feel like giving up. Initally i really can be v understanding to him but the more he make me sad, i wld wonder y shld i be understand to sm1 who make me sad. N when i start to 心灰意冷 n didn't treat B too good, smhow he'll do things tt make me feel tt he's more concern abt me than previously. I ask B whether he knew tt i dun treat him as good as previously n B replied tt he's sensitive to this so how can he dunno. I oso got puzzled by him smtimes, ain't e things tt he told me contridicts his actions? I told B tt he's not e only one concerning abt me, he tot it's A & D cos he knew abt their existence but they are not. It's C n i told B abt it ytd. I told B tt C almost send me home everyday n B still can joke tt he oso wan. ><" Smtimes really feel tt B is crapping too much but he oso bought a lot of laughter to me. I dun deny tt he brighten up my life after knowing him.

This morning i finally figure out y i dun have the sense of happiness after hearing his answer ytd. Although i'm e leading scorer now but i'm not the golden boot yet. If last season golden boot overtook me, then i'm just nothing. 所谓喜欢一个人，如果不是全部，就是零。B did mentioned before tt he still can't forget the one who hurt him the most n he did habour e thoughts of reunion although it's impossible. Well, nothing is impossible.

Y when i'm on e verge of giving up then he told me those? I dunno, dun wanna think, dun wanna make any decision. Just follow my heart, just hear wat my heart say....

2008-06-22T08:42:00.024+08:00

It's raining heavily this morning, my fav weather again. Woken up by the rain before 7am and couldn't continue sleeping. Was lying on the bed tossing and turning hoping to fall asleep again. In the end, i give up and went to brush my teeth at 8.30am, didn't realise tt i was lying on my bed for 1 1/2hr. If i noe earlier, would not be lying in the bed for so long.

Went to quite a few places wif B on Saturday. Seems to go to those not so common places wif B. He pick me up @ 10am and we went to Hay Diaries Farm first. As usual, although i'm only the passenger, i always gotta noe the directions and guide B. I dun need to noe the directions when i'm the passenger of others. I always nagged at B that i'm not his GPRS n he still dare to comment that this GPRS is v good. Me poor thing, need to noe the directions otherwise i think we gg for detour v often.

I went there before in primary school and i wanna go there to drink goat's milk, hehe... Goat milk is nutritionally superior and has more calcium, chlorine and vitamins while having less lactose than any other milk from domestic livestock.

Goat milking session
Yummy goat milk
Different species of goats
Y the goat is not co-operative wif me???

After the goat farm visit, i suggest gg to the end of Lim Chu Kang where the bus terminal is since i'm curious abt tt place. Nothing much actually, saw ppl fishing loh... We left for our lunch shortly.

Lim Chu Kang jetty

Police coast guard

Mussels

Went to Bollywood Veggies farm restuarant Poison Ivy Bistro for lunch. We ordered pineapple rice and papaya chicken. Haiz... it's such a disappointment. The pineapple rice is quite soggy and B comment tt adding a few pieces of pineapple can considered as pineapple rice meh? He say tt he can cook much better, haha...

After our lunch, we went to Kin Yan Agrotech - an organic wheatgrass farm cos last time my sis ask me to buy wheatgrass but i didn't went the last time. But it didn't sell live wheatgrass, only sell wheatgrass juice n wheatgrass powder so i didn't buy. The farm oso sell aloe vera, catus and mushrooms.

Organic wheatgrass

Mushroom

After tt, we went to Qian Hu for fish therapy. Yah, i really like the fish therapy a lot. Hmm... if i can buy these fishes back home n do fish therapy as n when i wan but e fishes r too ex.... As this is e 2nd time, not as itchy as e 1st time. My legs seems to attract lots of fishes.

Fish therapy

Saw e tiny blue & yellow fishes

Colourful fishes

After finishing the fish therapy and viewing the fishes, we head for Ikea @ Tampines. As i'm not familiar wif the east side n e street directory is 2006 version, so B gonna figure out himself the way there. As we didn't had a fulfiling lunch n smmore the food is not nice, so we went to Ikea n had meat ball. Well, a lot of ppl say tt e meat ball is nice but i think it's ok lah. It's e chicken wings which is yummy. After having a more fulfiling meal, we went to look @ e furnitures. Probably due to e effect after eating, we did feel a bit sleepy n when testing those beds n sofa, really have e urge to just stay there n dun feel like getting up. But of cos we didn't 'test' too long.

At the end of the cashier counters, finally saw my hotdogs!!!! Wow... so happy cos was a bit disppointed when tt e hotdogs was not sold in e restaurant so i tot i dun have e chance to eat it. B was laughing at me loh when i'm so excited when seeing the hotdogs... It just taste so so so yummy. While eating our hotdog, saw a aunty almost used up e whole ball of ropes in tying her purchase. Actually not only us was paying attention on her and we really wonder she need to tie so many rounds for wat???

Aunty art of tying

After tt, we went to Courts which is beside Ikea, nothing much and not much crowd. Was hooked to a movie screening on one of the plasma TV so sat @ the sofa and watch for abt 1/2hr bah. Oso tried the massage chair. Didn't tried too long otherwise i think e salesperson wld be staring @ us.

Then we went to Giant which is opposite Courts. Didn't bought anything except a bottle of mineral water.

We left Giant and went to have our dinner. But it's only 6pm which is still early. Hence we ordered drinks and wait for abt 1/2 hr later before we order our food. As we r not hungry, only ordered a plate of oyster omlette which B recommend. Well, it's not bad. My standard is v high loh...

B didn't noe how to get to Bedok reservoir hence he look at the street directory n still couldn't figure out. No choice, still need me to guide him. Haiz... he really can't read maps. The 2 locations are just in 2 maps which are above n below. So so so simple loh...

Alamak when we reach Bedok reservoir n park the car, we realise tt actually the performance is at the other end of the reservoir. Nvm, since we just ate our dinner, we decided to walk loh. By the time we reach the performance area, it was full wif people. B ask me how come got so many Singaporeans noe how to appreciate meh? I reply tt it's FREE! Haha... B even say tt he will have more 墨水 after watching the performance. The name of the performance is Hydro Sapiens by The Lunatics from Netherlands. Well, after the performance had ended, B ask me whether i understand it or not? Actually i oso dun understand cos I'm not sm1 who really noes how to appreciate art. But anyway since it's free, i dun mind gg.

The performance

After the performance ended, we decided to walk the other way back to the carpark. In e end, we took abt an hr to reach e carpark. I told B tt we had accompanlished smthing today which is walking the whole of Bedok reservoir today, haha...

On our way back, B missed the PIE exit and in the end, we took ECP then AYE then BKE before reaching my home. Y he's sense of direction is so bad? I ask him whether he's using water n not petrol meh? B still can tell me that it's good to have me around to guide him. ><"

2008-06-20T22:09:00.003+08:00

Finally it's Friday, wat a long long wk. Although boss is not around this wk but has been working pretty late this wk, knock off @ least after 7.30pm. As e days goes, knock off later n later, ytd knock off @ 9.30pm. Y is there only 24hrs a day? How i wish tt there is more hrs a day!

Smtimes i wonder is it tt i get angry easily? Hmm... but i angry oso got reason then angry ah, not anyhow angry mah, so i'm not those temperamental type bah. 2 ppl making me moody today.

2008-06-16T20:56:00.006+08:00

Haven't been blogging for quite some time. Dun feel like blogging, tt's y didn't blog. Finally after exam n tot tt can do e things i wanna do, yet all is work work n more work. Shldn't talk so much abt work since i'm already sick of it.

Went to watch Kungfu Panda on Fri. It's quite a humourous show, good to have a laugh once in a while since work is already so stress n tired. Sometimes how i wish tt e world tt i'm living can be just tt simple. How i wish.... Initially it's D who wanna ask me out, but lucky i didn't wait for him otherwise i gonna being 放鸽子again. Ask me out after my exams n when i suggest the timing didn't reply. Me being clever loh, nvr wait for him, by thu nvr hear any reply from D then i ask C whether wanna go watch a movie. C of cos most likely wldn't reject me rite?

Was chattng in msn wif A ytd n A ask me is it tt i wanna play around? Actually i do feel so, mayb life get a bit bored, playing around is fun as long as it doesn't cross over e line or overboard rite? Smtimes i oso dunno y, since so many ppl r so good to me, then shldn't i enjoy this moment before it vanished? Happiness is always short-lived... As wat B say, who doesn't want ppl to treat them good? But wat i can't 谅解 B is that when u can't reciprocate, shldn't u let tt person noe rather than keeping silent? Well, at least i told C that if he always treat me good, i may not b able to reciprocate. C say tt he noe his limit. Then wat can i say?

Smhow feel comfortable when going out wif A but at the same time, i noe tt we r just frenz. I noe tt i'm not his type n we just can't develop e chemistry. When he's bored n i got time, i'll entertain him. When i have other priority, of cos not loh. No matter wat happen, i noe tt we r just frenz. Told A tt mayb by the time when we r 40 n still single, can consider each other. Then A retort tt he dun have the charm meh, otherwise y wait until 40? Then i reply 30 loh...

Really thanks B for helping me to brainstorm abt my work on sat afternoon. Yah B say he wldn't do volunteer work but did i request his service meh? My memory can't be tt poor rite?

So many ppl r so good to me...

2008-06-02T20:49:00.005+08:00

How come it always seems that when u make me sad i'll fall sick? Is it just so coincidence? Really feel quite sicky. Lucky tml is the last day i'm working before i go on leave, haiz.... tons of things to clear. Haiz... exams coming n yet i'm falling sick. =(

2008-05-31T14:24:00.002+08:00

Nice roses rite? Haven't received flowers for quite some time. Remembered tt e last time i received flowers is from my colleague on my bday 2 yrs ago. Well, received 12 roses today. Just check tt actually 12 roses means Be my steady. Smhow i dun feel v v v happy when received this. Is it bcos ......???

2008-05-29T21:32:00.006+08:00

Read abt an article in wobao ytd abt how to let woman feel the sense of security. Being handsome n have lots of cash doesn't mean sense of security for woman. Well, i feel tt i wld become more insecure, isn't it? I do agree with the tips mentioned to make woman feel tt there is a sense of security:

1st - Respect woman.

2nd - Do give her some warmth like holding hands n hugging her. These can be unforgettable for woman compared to a diamond ring. So nvr stingy wif ur hugs n fingers.

3rd - When a woman is vexed, she may just need a listening ear. Smtimes wat a woman need is sm1 whom she can vent out all her emotions wif, she may not need sm1 to give her advice.

4th - Win over her family and frenz. Woman can be easily influenced by the people surrounding her.

5th - Must be clear on the limit/ boundary wif other gal frenz. Let her noe who are ur gal frenz and these are the foundations of trust.

6th - Do remember to give woman some sweet talk smtimes. Which woman dun like to be coax n pampered? Woman just wanna clearly noe how important they are in man's heart.

How i wish guys just noe all these.... especially.....although not all r applicable to him @ e moment.

2008-05-27T20:12:00.004+08:00

Saw super super huge wheel today during lunch time. OMG, is this the wheel of aeroplane???

Currently is the Singapore Art Festival, it's a pity tt i missed the opening session - Water Fools Ilotopie (France) @ Boat Quay. Saw it on the news. Hence i decided to go to the closing session - Hydro SapiensThe Lunatics (The Netherlands) @ Bedok Reservoir on 21 June with shu shu. Admission is free and it's from 20 - 22 June 8pm. http://www.singaporeartsfest.com/fest_spec.asp Gals if u all interested, do visit. Didn't purposely make myself to be more artistic or to please anyone. Interested tt's y i visit museum n catch these show.

2008-05-22T21:48:00.002+08:00

So so happy that Man U won the champion league. Tot that i can only check who won after i reach e office. But once i switch on my hp, i received a sms from A telling me that Man U won! Unbelievable. Motivate me to hang on for e whole day as only knock off from work @ 10.30pm e day b4. =)

2008-05-19T14:46:00.005+08:00

Things really got more n more complicated with D - my old friendster frenz coming into e pic. Meet D in msn 2day. When D told me tt i shldn't be so occupied wif work, i shld start dating, i reply tt i must have dating partner b4 i can date ah. Then D ask me whether i wld consider him. I just brush it off thinking he must be joking. When D ask me again whether he stand a chance again, i just laugh it off again. Wat's wrong wif these guys recently in confessing to me? Y everyone wanna join me when i tell them i wanna go Europe? Is it gonna be end of e world soon?

D is so funny, saying tt i'm a nice gal n how come he didn't treasure me back then. Hmm.. it has been 3 yrs ago, telling me these now wldn't it be too late? Do i have e look tt i'm a nice gal n sm1 who can be settled down wif? Y guys r just a branch of super super funny animal tt they dun treasure when e chance is there n only regret it later on? Wat's e point of telling me now tt he regret disappointing me again n again in the past? Time just can't turn back e clock n i've already move on. I was indeed v sad back then.

Was sad wif B ytd. Y i always seem to be happy, sad, angry n disappointed wif B? Can't even have 5-10min chat wif u? Wanna chat wif u doesn't mean i wan a long long chat. Tot told u b4 tt 5-10min will do. Doubt u'll remember wat i said b4, always 4get wat i said. =( U r just too preoccupied wif ur goals n objectives.

2008-05-18T09:20:00.003+08:00

Silence, if u tot tt u wld be able to read my latest updates here, mayb u wldn't cos smtimes i really dun have e mood & time to update.

Smhow i dun feel vexed now after i've told C tt actually i have good feelings for B. C told me tt he wld respect my decision whoever i choose. But he say i shld just enjoyed being pampered. Mayb i haven't been pampered for so long tt i dun get used to it. I dun deny tt it's good to have sm1 to send u home after ur work cos dun have to waste time waiting for bus, worried abt no seats in bus... but i feel it's quite a burden when sm1 is waiting for me. I'm afraid tt time is being wasted. C did assure me tt he wldn't waste his time cos he can read newspaper or use his laptop while waiting for me.

Anyway initially went to Holland V for dinner wif C on fri after work but as usual waited quite a while for carpark lot hence i suggest going to this place - Villa Bali. Heard from my colleague tt it's quite a ncie place. Well, smtimes i do wanna visit places which are only accessible by car so tt's y i didn't went to such places wif u gals. Mayb 1 day if either of us has a car then we can go, hehe.

Villa Bali is located @ Lock road @ Gillman Village, smwhere @ Alexander Road. Once u step into this place, it's like u r in a garden covered with trees. As wat my colleague told me, u dun feel like u r in S'pore. We ordered soft shell crab n pizza (4get wat pizza) n cocktail. The pizza is not bad but soft shell crab mah, so-so loh. Can oso order drinks there n there's also socce matches.

There are also other pubs n restaurant @ Gillman Village. Actually other than Gillman Village, there are oso other places like Wessex Estate & Rochester Park @ e west side. It's oso a stretch of restaurants n pubs. Get 2 noe all these places from reading newspaper. Actually after e dinner, we did went to Wessex Estate & Rochester park to explore. Will visit them on other days. Yup, gotta search for more interesting places.

2008-05-13T22:45:00.003+08:00

Hmm can't u just tell me tt ur msn nick "Sorry, In my process of pursuring my goals, there bounds to be sacrifice and pain" is referring to me? Y deny it n later then tell me tt it's referring to me? Guys can oso be so fickle minded. Tot tt it's referring to me when i 1st saw it, feel =( when u deny it initially. Who say gals r irritating n can't accept wat was said once? Cos u nvr made urself clear so y shld i accept it?

When one make me angry, the other one is concern abt me. I feel bad making u waiting for me for more than an hr. Well, i dun have a fixed knock off time. I really wanna tell u dun wait for me. No pt waiting so long. Although u say send me home, but i can't possibly just purely let sm1 waiting for me for so long n in the end just drive me home rite? As a matter of goodwill, the most tt i can do is to have dinner wif u. If i dun even have dinner wif u, wldn't i be treating u as my chauffeur? I'm feel quite vexed. I think i gotta hint to him not to wait for me durng wkdays. Hmm... if u treat me too good n i can't be reciprocal, it made me feel bad. Now i understand y shu shu feel bad smtimes cos i've been treating him too good.

2008-05-12T21:45:00.003+08:00

First i must say i'm really happy tt Man U won the EPL title. Wat a close shave this yr.

Secondly i really upset abt normal n good frenz. Better than normal friend can be define as good friend or better than good friend. My definition is just v simple, normal frenz means normal frenz n good frenz means good frenz. Can't i get upset abt this? =(

2008-05-09T17:09:00.012+08:00

Just read today's Straits Times abt Generation Y. I belong to generation Y (born between 1980 - 1999). There was a pt which i really agreed whole-heartedly. All bosses pls take note tt to retain the generation Y talent, do agree to our request for time-out otherwise they may quit their job n join ur competitor. There are 2 employees who take 3 mths off to learn pottery in UK and another who her high-paying job for a mth of travel in Africa. Yes, i'm really 1 of them!

Recently get to noe another guy. Meet him the 2nd time on my colleague ROM cum birthday party. Have e feeling tt he's wanna get to noe me better. Can't be possibly consecutive 3 days asking me out rite? Yup, really went out 4 consecutive 3 days but anyway from this sat onwards until exam, really gonna study study study. I really sian of lefting wif 3 papers. My sis gonna overtake me soon. Haiz...

Ok now lets label them A, B n C guy. A guy is my senior, B guy is my friendster frenz n C guy is this guy. Well, A guy is sure out of e topic cos we only went out when i got e time 2 entertainment him. Smtimes it's just so coincidence tt A and B ask me out but always B ask me earlier so no choice gotta turn A away. Now left wif B n C. Sounds like solving algrebra smthing like tt rite?

Indeed noe B much much much longer than C. Time flies, B n i gotta noe each other for 7 mths already. Tot B dun remember, was quite surprised when B mentioned few days earlier. Feel tt B smtimes can be quite thoughtful n yet smtimes so unthoughtful. I oso dunno y i have e feeling tt C wanna noe me better. Woman instinct? I wldn't for the sake of having a relationship then just anyhow choose sm1. Find myself quite funny. When went out wif C, i found tt actually i prefer to go out wif B. But when go out wif B, i would prefer e feeling of sms or chat wif him. V profound rite?

B mentioned tt he has not reach his destination yet so he dun have e time to care n concern abt e important people around him. So how long he takes to reach his destination? Telling me i'm 1 of them so means wat? Feel sad after reading his sms ytd. Have i downgrade from > good frenz to > normal frenz? Ain't u noe tt i'm sensitive to this? Or have u forgotten tt u did say b4 tt i'm > good frenz? Think u really got v poor memory. Seems to always forget the things tt i say.

Found tt C seems to read me quite well, he even can say correctly my personality n as to wat type of guys i'm looking for. But the more tt he can read, the more i'm a bit sceptical. Ain't it scarely when sm1 is able to read u so well when u only get to noe him for a wk n went out wif him <>

Smhow just feel tt dun have e chemistry tt i have wif B. B wld be e 1 who i wld look for 1st when i wanna share my joy, sadness or anything. I oso dunno y. I wld throw my temper at him when i'm angry, ignore him when i'm angry, waiting for him to pacify me when i'm angry, 撒娇 wif him occassionally. We just seems to be able to chat anything under the sun, moon... B is the one who told me tt it's good to have choices. N C told me tt having too much choices is not good, if u miss it, u may miss it forever.

Life can be simple n yet so complicated.

Went to the zoo 2day. It has been almost 12 years since i stepped into the zoo, remembered tt i last went when i was in primary sch. Well sm1 had not been to zoo b4 so tt's y we went there loh, just tt simple. Weather was extremely hot, think can get heatstroke ah.... Zoo is so big, 1/2 day surely not enuf... So many ppl went to zoo 2day, probably bcos it's PH. A lot of families, think it's a good place 4 families outing? Probably, can oso educate kids at the same time. Upload some photos took in zoo...

Silent, u wanna noe how he look like rite? Haha... show u this funny photo of him. =p

2008-04-27T12:06:00.004+08:00

Regarding diana comments, mayb u r rite. Well, not everyone can be so rational everytime. When the things happen on urself, u may not be able to see it as clearly as other ppl. Smtimes it did hurts tt u r true to ur feelings so which is y i rather not true to my feeings smtimes. I think u may say me insane but if being like this wldn't spoil the present relationship, wldn't it be better than to damage the relationship?

Well, i think i had thought too much in the past. One day on my way back home, this suddenly came to my mind. I should be contented with the things i have now. Sm1 told me, life is a long n hard journey, u can always give up bcos there isn't an ending. Just take things easily n naturally. Some things just can't be rush. So y shld i be thinking so much? This really strikes me. If it meant to be urs, it will be.

Dun worry, i'm ok.

2008-04-22T21:55:00.007+08:00

Seldom blog nowadays. Probably also nothing to blog. Life is always same as usual. Hmm.. feel tt no matter whether it's being single or in relationship or married, life is like a routine after sometimes. Everything always has its pros n cons.

Got promotion and increment. Now finally can apply wat i always wanna apply for quite some time. I doubt i'm those who will spend to e limit without curbing. Wanna apply cos always got those interest free installment but always can't take advantage of tt. The other advantage being discounts on dining, shopping, watching movie etc. Well, although it's spending on credit but i doubt it has much impact on me cos usually i dun spend on big items. Gonna do research first before i start to apply.

Well, this is only the beginning, in long term, i think i may squeeze until v dry. Really admire those who can hold more than 1 job. I definitely cant. If i've e time, i rather slp, do the things i like. Isn't enjoying ur life 1 of e reason to be still living on this earth?

It seems tt those foods tt i bought from taiwan is really not alot. Almost nothing after distributing to colleague n frenz. Well, most of the food tt i bought back received +ve comments. Shld have bought more... Anyway there's a limit on how much i can bought back.

Well, it seems tt smtimes i shldn't purposely do smthing, end up it backfires. When i dun expect it, yet it happen. Isn't it ironical? Mayb it's true tt being single will feel lonely. Initially mayb not but after a while, it will. We r human, it's natural. Tt's y we live in a community! Being single means no commitment but does not mean u can be havoc rite? Well, well, well, i oso dunno.... Anyway i just follow my feeling but i oso dun wanna regret later on. So it's important to be 理智，dun let others 冲昏了头。

Heard this song 忘不了by 施文斌。Nice song.... Tot this song is appropriate for sm1 n yet he's reply is he has already 4get a lot of things. Wat does this mean??? So chim.... Really v confused by his actions recently. I'm scared... I'm scared a lot of things. I have been trying to avoid cos i'm scared. I've been trying to control it cos i'm scared. I'm scared cos i dun think i'm brave enuf to face it again. The more tt u r good to me, it make me more scared. Smtimes i really hope tt u dun treat me so good. Well, i dun read too much cos i'm scared. Sm1 wouldn't no reason always call u to chit chat rite? Smmore @ work. If u dun really matter to them, they wldn't be concern whether u r angry rite? Type so many sorry word by word to apologise to u. Can i tell u not to be so good to me cos i'm scared?

2008-04-20T19:22:00.007+08:00

Well, only blogged on day 1 of my taiwan trip. Already spend almost half of my sat blogging it. Will only blog the remaining days as n when i've the time. Anyway i've posted some photos on friendster so can take a look there. Good things r worth waiting. I really agree with this philosophy.

Found tt i always got a lot of things tt i wanna do but always bcos of 1 constraint - TIME. No choice, gotta do 1 @ a time. Just like i've accumulated 3 wks of newspaper n finally today i spent almost 5-6 hrs finished reading it.

Haiz... being 放飞机 again. Hmm.... Is it really true tt being single wld feel lonely?

2008-04-13T19:12:00.003+08:00

Finally i'm back. Really enjoyed my 8 days in taiwan. Super fun. Have not had such a fun time for a long long time. Really like taiwan a lot. easy to navigate, no language barrier. Really wanna go there again. Will update my travelogue soon.

2008-03-30T11:13:00.009+08:00

Registered for the wrong CC class ytd. Didn't even discovered it when i recieved e CC sms confirming e class was @ 2pm. I tot e class has changed from morn to afternoon. It's only few hrs b4 i went to for e class, I double checked again tt i discovered tt i registered for e wrong class. Alas but it's too late too do anything le. No choice, since i paid for e class so just go loh. Yah yah yah, must be more careful in e future, so unlike e normal me.

Smtimes it can turn out to be blessing in disguise. There is 1 dish which i wanna learn in e afternoon class but there is also sirloin steak, tt's y i didn't registered. Well, in e end, i learn smthing which i wanna learn. LOL. Yummy, all e 3 dishes r v nice.

Pumpkin Soup with Ginger and Croutons Gratinated Potatoes with Emmental Cheese Black Peppered Sirloin Steak with Mushrooms Sauce

Watch the leap years ytd. Wanted to watch it since it started screening on 29 Feb 08. Finally watch it after a month. Smtimes movies, novels r just so unrealistic. Wld u wait for sm1 for 3 leap years ~ 12 years? Overall this movie is not bad, hmm... give it 3.5 out of 5, oso credit to e ending. Otherwise i think i'll only give 3. Well, feel tt the male lead actor is so unhandsome, not my cup of tea. He's not compatible wif Li-lin @ all. Otherwise i think i'll give 4.

Guys can either be classified as purely normal frenz, good frenz n confidant or fling cos husband material r so hard to find. Probably feel tired now... I think i've been adopting e attitude tt u dun have to search for him, he will come to u.

Smtimes i think i longed for sm1 to share wif me my everything, to cheer me up when i'm down, to keep me accompany when i wish. Probably can't be a person who fits everything, so gotta find different ppl to do each part of it. Well, i dun mind if there is sm1 who can only make me laugh when i need it, lend me a listening ear then another 1 keep me accompany when i wish.

I feel tt for some guys, no matter wat happen, still can be good frenz wif them as long as dun cross the boundary. For some guys, still can be frenz with them even if got things happen, depending on the matters, cos probably still can act as if nothing happens. I think for some matter i can act as if nothing happen. Smtimes it's a matter of impulse. V complicated rite? Life still goes on...

2008-03-27T22:52:00.004+08:00

Wow... 1st time bought clothes online. Nvr bought clothes online b4 cos i have reservation abt buying the rite clothes. Anyway my sis wanna accumulate to a certain amt so tt she can get the seller to deliver the clothes to S'pore so she rope me in. Cheap wow... these 3 blouse plus freight charges is ~ S$44. Where to get such cheap clothes in S'pore?

Tried on the clothes n it fit nicely, good good. Since the 1st time experience is not bad, I wldn't mind buying again.... Seems to get addicted le wow....

Feel so tired recently, working late, brain dead.. Dun seems to be enthusiatic abt my trip. When i looking 4wd, it seems so long n now it's approaching, yet i dun feel excited. Wat's wrong wif me? Y i seems to miss smthing? So funny...

想念雨天，想念你。。。

2008-03-25T22:12:00.003+08:00

Life is so complicated. 你看我好，我看你好。Isn't it always the case?

Mayb as time goes by, the feeling has oso gone. Even if u come back now, i dun really feel anything anymore. Probably @ at the start will be feel shock, bring back the sad memories. Mayb a little bit lose. Really v sceptical abt wat is ur actual intention. Definitely will doubt when sm1 who haven't been contacting u for so long suddenly gd to u. All of a sudden, sms u, call u, ask u out. I dun feel glad tt u found me, i dun feel happy like u when i hear ur voice.

Shu shu is really damn funny, can crap abt all these. Really feel @ ease after crapping wif u. Dunno y really feel comfy chatting wif u, mayb just wat u feel comfy smsing me. Ok, just as wat u say, u can really make ppl smile, give u some credit. Hmm... as time goes by... i feel more n more tt we r like frenz who have known each other for long long time, really feel comfy wif. Smhow tt special type of feeling seems to disappear. Is it tt we only feel comfy wif each other, more like a habit bah...

2008-03-23T15:36:00.014+08:00

Recently more happenings. Bought a new laptop cos my com is dying, dunno when really gg into the grave. Y is it the things tt i fancy is always so expensive? It's seems tt every year i always have to spend big bucks on those stuff. Since i start working, i've bought LCD monitor, new CPU, digital camera, hp n now it's laptop. Pray tt next yr, i dun have to spend on these electronic gadgets.

Went to the MINT (Moment of Imagination and Nostalgia with Toys) museum on sat. Well, i didn't plan to go there ytd, it's an impromptu decision again. Wanna visit the national museum for the greeks exhibition but it ended last sun. Probably will visit the Louvre museum in France to see the greeks exhibition when i go to Europe. Read in the newspaper that there may be Eygptian exhibition at end of the year. If there is, i do wanna go n c the exhibition.

Went quite a few places ytd. Other than toy museum, oso went to Bugis n Orchard. Seems tt my poor legs always suffer when went out wif u. Dunno y always walk alot when went out wif u?

Yup oso went 鼎太丰 for dinner. I nvr went there b4 but didn't tell anyone, so shhh... it's a secret. Well, the 小笼包 was so so lah, y everyone like it?

Here are some shots which i took in the MINT museum. Did feel disappointed after touring the museum. Mayb too much expectation result in disapppointment. Treat it as just an experience.

Is it so coincidence tt most of times we went out, there will be others asking me out? Y everyone seems to pick the same moment? There is only 1 me in this world, can i split into more?

Smhow the feeling is no longer there. Changes is the only constant in this world.

Smthing so unexpected happen ytd. Wat is the feeling like when sm1 who haven't been contacting u for the past 2 1/2 yrs suddenly contact u again? Extemely shock!!! Y now then contact? Wldn't it be good tt since we no longer contact, we shldn't contact @ all? Bringing back those memories is not a kind thing to me. I dun feel glad tt u've found me. All have been washed away long long time ago. Didn't touch it for nearly 2 years n now reading back, now then i realise how silly i'm in the past. It did hurt me deeply then. Asking me how i've been for the past few years, well, i can only say i'm the same but the only changes is i'm gettng older. Just feel so amused by ur qsn asking me whether i'm married. Which statutes defines tt married woman can't meet or go out wif their frenz? Marriage seems to be quite a faraway thing from me. Haven't found a life partner, dun feel like committing wif sm1 for the rest of my life yet... I really quite sceptical as to the y u wanna reignites contact now? Too much hurt make me more n more sceptical on a lot of things.

Shu Shu, no matter wat gonna happen in the future, i really hope tt we can always be v good frenz.

2008-03-17T14:17:00.003+08:00

Yeh, i manage to get train tix to Alishan le. So so so happy, all issues have been finalised so now only left changing the currency. Waiting for a more favourable rate. Yeh....

Counting down wif 3 wks to go.

2008-03-15T08:40:00.007+08:00

I think most of my gals frenz surrounding me r not die-hard soccer fans. Well, i doubt i'll be consider as 1 cos i'm not to tt extreme. I just follow the news regularly but i wldn't spend time watching it. Came across this article in the new paper on "love your woman like you love your football team". This columnist was saying tt her fiance told her tt " The real fans are not the ones who wear their team's jerseys after they win. Thery're the ones who still wear their jerseys after they lose." Hence, men's single dedication to their football team is really powerful. If they also treat woman like this... So football is where you can see the purest devotion in a man.

The columnist also mention tt previously she was suppporting a particular club n there was once the club lose. Since then she nvr look at them the same way again. She feel disappointed and even cheated that the club let her down. For me, although smtimes the club tt i support do let me down but i wld still support it. I wld just swell n scold them for not performing but tt's all. It's just like when ur love ones encounter difficulties or r at their low, u wld still support them. However i do agree to certain extent tt nvr disappoint a woman cos she'll nvr look at you the same way again.

2008-03-11T23:09:00.004+08:00

Just finish watching 恶作剧2 episode 13 and i like 湘琴 telling 直树 that she is 很幸福。幸福到底是怎样的感觉？

Make chilled oreo cheesecake ytd. Failure again. Taste more like mudpie rather than cheesecake n the melting speed is tremendous. Then the base is hard like cookies. Haiz.... I follow the recipe exactly step by step so wat went wrong?

Are we gg on cold war? Wat r u angry abt? I oso dunno y i'm angry for the last 2 days. So funny, wat i'm angry abt? Wat's wrong wif us? Y angry over tt matter? Ur sms reply did says u r angry so y deny when i ask u over the phone? Gonna grill u to tell the ans later on when we meet.

Yup, gonna watch August Rush later. It's abt an orphan in search of his parents. Along the way, he touches the people around him by his incredible gift of music and takes the world by storm as the youngest ever composer for the New York Philharmonic. Caught the preview while watching P.S. I love you. Another movie tt i wanna watch is the leap years. So gals, anyone interested?

2008-02-29T23:47:00.007+08:00

Watch They Kiss Again Ep 11 n i like the part tt Xiang Qing told Zhi Shu tt she's v happy tt he's jealous bcos of her cos it shows tt he's care n concern abt her. All along i really feel tt Zhi Shu is super duper cold to Xiang Qing n i really wonder how can Xiang Qing stand this?

Y do human feel happy, sad, angry? Smtimes just wanna be emotionless oso can't? Y do i feel unhappy abt? Haven't i been reminding myself everytime? Wat's wrong wif me? I oso dunno....

2008-02-24T18:06:00.005+08:00

Went to Naughty by Nature @ Boat Quay for trial makeover session today. These r the 2 complimentary free photos tt i have choosen from the shots taken. Haha... my sis n mom say tt the 2nd photo dun look like me wow... Wat abt u gals?

Feel a bit weird posing cos i'm not born as model in nature mah... hehe... got 2 different shots, 1 is wearing this black blouse n jeans. The other 1 mah... i didn't want the shots cos too naughty le...

Smtimes not really advisable to go for trial session cos those ppl will try to psycho u to buy their pdt. But i have already learn my lesson n smmore gonna save up for my trip to Europe next yr, so shldn't spend unnecessarily.

Really feel v tired... Has been working almost every sat since jan. N oso if i can reach home 7plus nowadays, it's already consider early. I realy dun feel tt i'm more productive even if i work longer hours. Haiz... hopefully from Mar onwards, everything can return to normal. I'm a human not a machine! I really dislike tt particular sentence and the game every mth.

Almost finalising my taiwan trip plan, acccomodation in taipei n Alishan has been booked, Taroko taxi trip is also booked, the only tedious part is the train from Chiayi to Alishan cos foreigner can't book n buy ticket through phone or online. Haiz... Y like tt leh? Hmm.. see how it goes... Worse come to worse, take bus instead. Hopefully everything goes smoothly. This is the longest trip tt i gonna go since i went to HK. Those trips tt i went for the past 3 years at most is 4 days so the planning were not as tedious as this taiwan trip. Smmore those trips tt i went r concentrated in an area unlike this, where i gotta travel by bus or train which r min 1-2hrs away. Feel tt the Europe trip will be much much more tedious.

Wanna watch the leap years. Watch the trailer n i wanna wat exactly the movie is abt. Rally wonder how wld it be if u only meet the person once every 4 years? Smmore it's a local pdt, so must support. Seldom got local movie tt attracts me.

Hmm.. mayb gonna make oreo cheesecake this wkend. Sm1 got the chance to taste again. When will my fried rice be ready leh?

2008-02-21T20:28:00.003+08:00

Read in the Straits Times tt in Japan, there is heartache leave for woman. For those younger than 24, there will be 1 day paid leave. For those between 25-29, there will be 2 days paid leave n for those older than 29, there will be 3 days paid leave. Not a bad idea rite?

Found this phrase interesting: "Love is blind but marriage restores its sight." I heard n seen live cases tt when a couple is dating, the guy can be v nice to u but once married, it's another case.

2008-02-18T22:39:00.005+08:00

Made cheesecake on sat. 1st time baking it n OMG, bake until the bottom n top chao da. A bit sad. =( Went jogging during evening, haven't been jogging for v v v long time, think since i graduated from sec sch. Is it really bcos of SSSS excercise enthusiasm? Hmm... good to perspire. Haven't perspire for quite a long time cos i'm those who dun perspire easily. Now calf a bit pain. Nvm, shall go for jogging once a wk in the future.

Read in Wobao tt guys r forgetful n not sensitive. If he is care n concern abt u means he's interested in you. N if he often sms, email, msn or chat wif u over the phone, he wanna noe more abt u cos guys wldn't find u w/o reason. Hmm... How true is it?

Is it intentionally or just bcos wanna eat??? Hmm... dun wanna think cos think so much oso no use. Guessing game is a tired game.

Watch P.S I love u. Wat touches me is tt the husband plan so much for his wife n tt's y he couldn't buy a new apt. I wld choose memory rather than an apt. I guess tt wat gals wld choose isn't it? N it's important to move on, no point hanging on to something that is impossible. Had the message get across?

Today feel tt 人在江湖生不由己。Haiz....

2008-02-10T18:26:00.000+08:00

Spend my 4 days of CNY @ my mom hometown. Will blog abt it when time permits.

Holidays just come n go n tml is back to reality. Gotta work hard this yr n save enuf $$. V likely will go Europe next yr so those tt i wanna do this yr i gotta accomplish them. Smtimes chances only come once so i gotta plan carefully. I have given myself 2 choices to accomplish when i reach 25 yrs old. If this is more feasible then most likely i'll choose this.

Recently like a song quite a lot especially the lyrics. Initially dun really like this song but the more i listen to it, i like it more n more. Seems to say out wat i'm feeling.

越來越不懂 (蔡健雅)

在我22岁时

回想起当时多么想谈爱

妈妈说就让它来

然而在我32岁时

发现我没太多的心去等待

它失去某种色彩

得不到的就更加爱

太容易来的就不理睬

其实谁不想遇见真爱

爱得绝对爱得坦白

以为遇上了就会明白

但每次它只留下惊鸿一瞥的感慨

yo 我越来越不懂爱

才32岁的我

虽然一个人过也过得够精彩

偶尔再想谈恋爱

然而爱总是乱了节拍

我只能够瞎猜也许能中了头彩

中了又觉得奇怪

得不到的就更加爱

太容易来的就不理睬

其实谁不想遇见真爱

爱得绝对爱得坦白

以为遇上了就会明白

但每次它只留下惊鸿一瞥的感慨

oh...越来越不懂爱

得不到的无所谓

就算是自我安慰

没必要伤悲

得不到的就更加爱

太容易来的就不理睬

其实谁不想遇见真爱

爱得绝对爱得坦白

以为遇上了就会明白

但每次它只留下惊鸿一瞥的感慨

oh...越来越不懂爱

以为遇上了就会明白

但每次它只留下惊鸿一瞥的感慨

oh...越来越不懂爱

什么都不懂

2008-02-03T15:45:00.000+08:00

Had been doing research for my taiwan trip for the past 2 mths. Soon, it'll be finishing n i shld be quite prepared when gg in Apr. Haven't been for 8 days trip. All previous trip max is 4 days except my HK trip. Doing research within a city is not difficult at all but for my taiwan trip, it involved taking bus n train to outskirt which can be quite tedious. Can't imagine tt if i gotta plan for 23 days trips, how tiring wld it be. Mayb yr end i just go to taipei itself which shld be quite easy to plan. Those who went to taipei either wld want to go there again or not anymore. So which category do i belong to? I always find tt there is a lot of places in taiwan which i doubt i can visit all even if i went there for a mth, it's just too big. Talking abt doing doing research, i think my sis haven't been doing at all. Ask her a couple of times n the ans she gave me is always no. Nvm except Alishan which i haven't finalised the research, the research for the remaining places is more or less completed. Hopefully all research will be done before Mar. N the other thing tt i'm hopping now is got promotion for airtix so tt i dun have to fork out so much to change my airtix, otherwise gotta spend another ~ $150. Oso gotta work out a rough estimation on how much i gotta spend. Just a lot of things to do. Now i find tt it's the research part tt make me really feel tired so if i go for solo trip, how tired wld it be to do everything on ur own.

Smtimes just dun understand my sis. I just dun understand y she bought those new clothes n still wanna wear my clothes? Not tt i got anything against her but the clothes tt she buy, i'll definitely wldn't wear. I really dislike her taste on the clothes tt she buy. Yet, she bought quite a few n still wanna wear those tt i bought, wat's wrong wif her? If she prefer those tt i bought then she shld buy those type instead of her type. I seldom have casual clothes nowadays cos last few times i keep buying working clothes, she got plenty n still wanna wear mine. It's not tt she dun have the spending power loh. Really dun understand n can't stand her. Gotta buy few more casual clothes when go shopping.

Smtimes unexpected things did happen. I was indeed a bit surprised to received sms from him on fri. Haven't been contacting him since last sun. Not tt i no longer wanna to keep in contact wif him, just tt the situation is a bit awkard. I oso can't possibly sms him out of the blue n wat shld i say in the sms? Tell him i'm ok when i'm indeed not ok? So i rather dun sms him. This time isn't the same as previous time n i can't think of ways to turn it around to my advantage. Probably oso sick n not enuf rest so brain not functioning v well. I did tot of not contacting him anymore cos i really dunno how. Then on my way home from work on thu, i oso dunno y this came across my mind. If 1 day we were to meet on st, wld we be like complete stranger just bypass each other or simply avoid each other? Thinking abt this make me feel a bit sad. In a dilemma whether i shld contact him or not? I feel tt if i initiate wldn't it be v awkard? Well, since he sms me n say until like we wldn't be contacting each other for very very long time n may not even contact each other anymore. I can't remember i told him this before but i shld have told him b4 otherwise he can't say tt i'm so accurate in predicting such situation. Hmm... it shld be abt my previous friendster frenz bah. If i'm so accurate in predicting things then y m i still on earth? So funny. Unexpected things just happen so i just follow the flow. Feel much better now, hopefully my sickness recover soon.

2008-01-28T20:54:00.000+08:00

Everything has come to an end although the earth still rotates, the sun still rises from the east, life still continues. Can i still feel the feeling of hurt or m i deeply hurt to the extend tt i no longer feel pain? If based on ur estimation tt u need 1.5 yr, shldn't it be less than 2 mths for me? Ridiculous. U r just 1 of them, liar! Have the urge to put down everything n go abroad n 散散心。Shld i just tender now n wait for 2 mths before i can go Taiwan for 23 days? Can i still wait for 2 mths? I dunno. I can't even describe how i feel now. Dun think tt a word sorry can compensate wat u have said. This is not the 1st time but y do i feel so pain now? Habits can be changed, initially will feel awkard, but sooner or later, will get used to it. Feelings can be changed too, but how long? How i wish it can be changed the next second. I no longer feel anything.

Feeling terribly sick, every breath i breathe i feel like my nose bleeding. When will i recover? I dun wan to be sick.

2008-01-26T19:18:00.000+08:00

Was on MC for the past 2 days. Sore eyes, feeling feverish, not feeling well @ all. Recovering now. Not fun being sick loh although able to rest @ home but oso dun feel like doing anything cos not in a clear mind state.

Is this considered as playful? On one hand, i feel tt gg out wif other guys is not as fun as gg out wif u n on the other hand, i just couldn't resist the temptation of gg out wif others. Well, since i'm free n there is sm1 asking me out, then just go out loh. Feels tt there is nothing wrong gg out for a movie etc. Smmore i'm still single, although it matters to u but u can't commit yet. Mayb i just want to make u jealous. Isn't jealousy also a way showing tt u care n concern? Guys r super fickle minded species. A wk ago saying tt it doesn't matter then a wk later saying tt it matter. Isn't a wk too short for such a sudden change? N oso to put across the message tt i'm not tt available n u r not the only guy asking me out. Smtimes no harm playing a bit of mind games cos this will reflect the truth. No longer so naive as young, once discovered smthing not wrong, gonna end it asap. 长痛不如短痛。I just feel tt u r different, is my intuition accurate? I dun wan similar things to happen again. I dunno whether i'll have the courage to go through it another time.

Although i feel happy tt u r treating me better n better, i'm oso scared. The better that u treat me, the deeper i seems to walk into it. Do u noe tt if u pamper me too much, i'll get used to it n may become more demanding? 有种焦虑不安的感觉。。。I still dun understand y u told me tt's nothing feel insecure when i dun lose anything but only stand to gain? Will i gain or will i lose?

Feel tt u r really v gd to me. When i say depends on my mood tml whether i wanna meet u, u told me tt u'll confirm wif me tonite 12am cos sun already. When i dun wanna do too vigourous activities, u suggested gg to East Coast. When i dun wan to eat fried food, u suggest bak kut teh for lunch. 真的有幸福小女人的感觉。。。

Got home around 3plus ytd, so tired... Went out from morning till midnite.

Interested in gg to farms but always no companion. Well, since YQ suggested gg n his frenz Samuel is driving so i just tag along. Seems tt the places i'm interested in, YQ is oso keen. Good tt found sm1 with common interest.

Well, this time u r exactly on the dot so we shall c. Alas, Samuel could only join us in the afternoon so our plan to visit farms in the morning gotta be changed. We were thinking of where to go while having our breakfast. YQ suggested national museum but i dun wan cos i was quite casually dressed. So i siggested West Coast n we agreed. Well, when the train reaches Jurong East, we make an impromptu decision n headed to Science Centre. I think i have not visited the Science Centre for almost a decade le. Just like the comforatability wif him cos we can just change our mind as n when we want.

We bought the package which included admission and 1 imax movie. I nvr went to omni-theatre b4, so suaku of me. Lots of exhibitions tt we didn't finished all. Left around 1plus cos our stomach are calling for SOS. After having our lunch, we decided to head to West Coast after tt. Just when we reach Jurong Entertainment Centre, Samuel is coming to pick us up. The 1st farm tt we went to is Qian Fu Fish Farm. Lots of fishes there n the only thing tt interest me is fish spa cos i'm not those breeding n rearing fish so dun really noe how to appreciate. The fish spa is quite worth it. $10 for 30min. Feel quite ticklish inititally but after a while, got used to it. My legs attracted a lot of fishes tt YQ n his frenz keep making fun on me. There was a lady sitting beside me n her legs only attract less than 10 fishes.

All the fishes are attracted to my legs, haha...

After Qian Hu, we headed to the dragon fruit farm. Not many ppl there cos it was drizzling. Nice to be in touch wif the naturals. We bought 1kg of red dragonfruit (only 2 dragonfruits loh) there n eat. One was sweet but another was not so sweet. After tt, we headed to the frog farm. Didn't went to goat farm cos it closed at 4pm. The frog farm was pathetic, seems to be an abandon place, only catch a few glimpse of some frogs. We left shortly.

Dragon fruit

We were driving a few rounds around the Lim Chu Kang cos our GPRS (i.e. YQ) did not seems to be able to read map properly. Not tt i wanna suan u lah, but it's just the fact. I'm much better than u, so in the future when u got car, u drive while i read map. We wanna head to another farm but bcos our GPRS told us the wrong way, we headed to to Farmart. Farmart is a place where there are a row of shops selling farms related stuff, got a hawker centre can eat ZhiCha, got some animals like rabbit, goats, hamsters. There is oso a place to fish prawn but YQ n Samuel prefer other places where they fish prawn. We were quite hungry already cos it's almost 7plus. We headed to Pasir Panjang for our dinner, they ordered 4 plates of seafood, 1 plate of kangkong n oso satay. I'm not big eater so most are finished by them. After tt, we went to Bishan to fish for prawn. Nvr tried b4, my colleague tried n she comment tt it's fun n interesting. Can get hooked to it wow.

We fished from 9plus to 1plus. I tried a few times n only caught1 . ^_^" Need a lot of patience, not easy. After tt, we BBQ all the prawns tt we caught. Yummy, it's nice.

Enjoyed myself quite a lot ytd. Did quite a lot of things tt i seldom did or nvr done b4. Just tt i seems to be neglected. Smmore feel tt Samuel seems to notice tt i'm bored n my needs more than u. Although u r concern abt me, can u be more sensitive to my needs? Just feel disappointed tt other ppl can notice me more than u. Hmm.. dunno still wanna go out wif u again?

Haven't been blogging for the past few days. Seems tt nowadays i become busier, busy until i haven't finished reading the past few days newspaper. Time flies, a week has just gone by.

Ain't ppl gotta keep their promise? I'm tired of being compromising again and again. I gotta change my itenarary, change my flight, incur extra charges, who gonna compensate me for this? How long i wanna go there is my choice n the money tt i gonna spend is oso mine. I just feel like spending so wat has it got to do wif other ppl? Ppl's mindset will change. Well, it's not tt i'm no longer thrifty, i just feel tt it's worthwhile to spend, can i even have the right? If tt's the case, i will never have the chance to go europe to backpack for a mth. The only chance tt i have is only when i quit my job n without another job waiting for me, otherwise it's impossible.

I feel tired but glad tt u r there for me. U cheer me up when i'm down n give me the strength n motivation.

Just dun understand y i did wavered on tt day. Y shld i wavered when sm1 who only finds me only when bored? Smmore disappeared for quite a while. Mayb bcos on tt day when i tell u tt i really appreciate u for being there for me n u joke abt it. Make me feel tt u dun appreciate wat i sincerely said from the bottom of my heart. Am i sm1 who will look for u when i need a laugh or two? U make me feel sad tt day. But before end of tt nite, i had come to a conclusion, u r not sm1 who will only look for me when u r bored. I dun wan to be sm1 whom ppl will look for when they are bored cos if i'm not of importance to them, i rather be nothing. N today another say i'm dao. Who r u to me n y shld i be so friendly wif u? By replying ur msg in msn, m i considered dao? I just have nothing to chat wif u tt's all so y shld i initiate to msg u whenever i'm in msn? These brunch of ppl r just so funny cos they are from Mars. I will only give attention to the one who give attention to me.

Well, now my to buy list only left wallet. Oso wanna make a new pair of spec but usually i only wear spec @ home so smtimes feel like making one then the next moment dun wan le. Fickle minded. Mayb i may make a new pair on impulse. Just like i cut my hair. Yup, i cut my hair short n rebond it.
