My Facebook...

My Facebook …
.
I think I created my account since last year. And the only purpose was to add friends into this account or rather I left it there for people to add me into their list of friends.

At first, I added lots of applications. But after awhile, I found them all useless and deleted them away and left my account inactive all the way till now.

Then recently, I realised that my friends have been tagging photos to my facebook and I thought why not I put in some photos into my account when I have so many photos in my computer.

So I did! I think I add 30 over pictures into my facebook.

I dunno if I’m stupid or my facebook is stupid.
I can’t add photos directly into my account and I have to create a folder before I do so. So, I did as instructed and named it “The Usuals”.


And this is the cover picture of my folder!!
.

I added some personal photos as well….
And I have changed my displayed picture after decades … haha ….

And I decided to use this!!
.


I think I’m going crazy for putting all these Unglam photos …. LOL
I guess I’m going the opposite way from all those pretty girls. I’m going the UNGLAM way~!

Christmas gifts!

RANDOMS

1. Christmas is over!
2. “SNAKE” cost me a bomb! >.<
3. I’m aching badly ):
4. I need a HAIRDO…
5. Birthday is coming REAL SOON~
(you guys know what I’m talking about right??)
6. I’m going for tattoo ~

Has been very busy with Christmas …
From buying Christmas gifts to preparation of treats and to CELEBRATIONS!

Anyway …
I think I had a very bad planning this time.
Everything didn’t go went as I planned.
I guess only the gift exchange part went well.

We had 2 gift exchange program this time.
1. Anything that cost below $10.
2. Items from home which is useable and the owner don’t want it.
I think the 2nd gift exchange program was rather good.

We can get rid of the items from home and exchange for something new. But ofcourse there is a risk involved that one might exchange for something the person doesn’t want also.

I did see some creative ideas. For example, one of our guys used newspaper as exchange gift. I think it’s something that fits our theme. Newspaper is a item that one doesn’t want after reading it, but it’s useable as well.


I prepared cornflakes cookies this time as Christmas treats. I’m quite glad that I get some positive feedbacks from people whom receive it.


Talking about Christmas gifts …
1. Anything that cost below $10.
I brought my gifts from DAISO!!
I always go there and buy my baking equipments. It’s cheap, having lots of varieties and most importantly, its useful!

People who shopped at Daiso before will know that their products are only $2 each. I’m having a hard time knowing what to get, so I went there to get some ideas. I think Ying, Dilys and Jx waited for quite some time as I keep on going rounds the pottery areas. I laid my eyes on the cats smiling looking bowl, so it means that I have decided to get it. But only buying it is too cheap, so I decided to get something else compatible and found the piggy bowl!

they are soo cute rite??

Haha … I hope that guy who had them will like them (:

The outings with the Q …

We have been meeting up very often
 .
during the Saturdays!!
.

Firstly, I wanted to drink “Coffee Bean” very badly, so we decided to have it on one of the Saturday. My favourite drink is PC which is known as “Pure Chocolate”, that is the only reason I always prefer to coffee bean to other coffee houses. The very creamy chocolatey taste with the sweet whip cream on top of it… Awww, so yummy.

Q has never try before therefore we decided to drink together.

Anyway, we had a conversation like this (I dun really remember):
ME: “I feel like drinking coffee bean lei, later we go and drink okie?”
ME: “I feel like drinking pure chocolate…”
Q: “huh … nice meh??” (She gave a questioning expression)
ME: “U drink before ar?
Q: “Nope.”
ME: “Then how you know not nice?!?”
She was laughing
I was >.<


We didn’t manage to drink it on the first time. We kind of mixed up “Coffee Club with Coffee Bean”, so we ended up drinking “Coffee Club” on the first date.
But we managed to cover it up on the second date! Woo whoo!! Haha …



She brought me to eat food that I had never tried before, so there’s always first time to everything. She broadened my food choices, and now I had more choice! Whahahaha …

Like:
A ramen food stall located at Far East plaza. It’s cheap and it really tastes good! It’s very chewy noodles with good soup base. (No photos, I forgotten about it)


We went to Aston located at “the Cathay” on Christmas. Yea, poor she, poor me; no one’s dated us. LOL… But I’m really happy that we got each other’s companionship. BUT we queued for 1 hour just to get sit-ed down. Their spaghetti is not so fantastic, maybe next time I should try their meat as it should be their speciality.
The set meal comes with the "soup of the day" which i had the mushroom soup
She had her pork chop. But i guess she prefer to the teriyaki chicken.
I had my seafood spaghetti



Movies!!
We caught twilight earlier on …
It was “Totally” a girly movie. Romance is the word.
Romeo Romeo~~ Juliet Juliet ~~

Twilight was a very modern day love story between a human and a vampire. It totally caught my attention throughout the whole movie session, though I was very very urgent to pee *laughs*. Not really so much of action-packed, although I expected more of fighting scenes. I was amazed by the main characters whereby they can keep on staring at people even when the other party stared back too. Totally cool, wish I could do that too!

 I’m going get the storybook!


YES MAN!
Didn’t manage to catch “Yes Man” with usual w35q, but I managed to catch it with Q.
It’s a very funny movie indeed. Like she said, a funny movie with a storyline.
He is a guy who always said “no” to everything after his breakup with his previous girlfriend. So he had his boring routine life. After attending the seminar, he learnt to say “yes” to everything. After saying “yes” to everything, he found out that there are always good things happening to him.
So, one word can change everything.

I think Jim Carrey aged a lot since the last time I caught his movie…
I really like Zooey Deschanel, I think she’s really pretty…


The Girls
We also met up with “Yiwen(on the right) & Meiying(on the left)”
4 of us haven’t been hanging out for a long while…
So we did some catch up...
" I look rather listless >.<"
Very sweet & thoughtful of them to prepare Christmas present for us!

[[ That time u asked me what kind person you are.
I replied: “you are very 三八, very auntie lor”
But I don’t mean it la… haha … ]]
.
[[ I mean三八 as in you are very chatty. Someone whom anyone can talk to regardless of any topics. I mean this is something good as being with you; you are totally opposite of me, so we can have endless topics to talk about. You are a very cheerful person, like I said, you have a great smile which I’m quite envious of. As for auntie, well only because you always said I’m auntie!! Hump!! SO PLS DUN SAY I’M AUNTIE AGAIN LA!! ]]

“Who is/are the most important people in your life?”

“Who is/are the most important people in your life?”


Well, she‘s someone very important to me…



I can’t live without her …



She plays a very important role in shaping up my personality as well as the life of an individual.



She acknowledged me for who I am.



She is my financial support.



She accepts me with my mistakes and weaknesses and still loves me.



She is someone who always lent her listening ears for my whinny moments.



She is someone who nags at me more than my mother do.

She is someone who just is irreplaceable…


She has been taking care of my life for 20 years and she has been running in my life nonstop, as if she’s my blood circulating in my body.


People say we look alike, just like we manufactured from the same mold.


I always remembered what a lady had said previously. “You two are sister hor? Is this your elder sister (pointing and referring to me!)” I was so pissed off then. Come to think of it, I am very petty for it happened long ago! LOL..


As days and years goes by, I got naturally too emotionally attached to the life with her. Life without her seems to be very miserable at start but slowly adapted to it. It makes me realize how weak I am.


The days we see each other start to reduce drastically from her single status to marriage and eventually to giving birth. It’s inevitable, I know. Something that occurs naturally when a girl gets attached, then married, and then wanted to start a new family; which is when a newborn arrived.


I never hoped for my parents’ attention. I started to get matured earlier than other kids and realised they are always either too busy or forgetful to care about my daily life. They never ask how I fare for my results and they never care for my emotions. Perhaps, I’m traumatised by my childhood and she is the only one who truly cares for me and really knows what I wanted.


Come to think of it, I’m just like a kid whom wanted attention and approval from this someone important to me. This behaviour of mine yearns for love and concern that only belongs to me.


I think I am demanding for too much attention for this age.


Like I said, as time goes by, I tend to adapt to it and grow up to how an adult should behave and it's time to kick off the bad habit of mine.




As mentioned in one of previous post, most of my close friends knew that my newborn nephew has finally arrived to this world on September 19. She had a hard time taking care of her troublesome son. Therefore, we seldom meet up.

Nephew Post link



B.U.T I’m happy that we get to meet up quite often recentleee!!


First Meet Up:

She brought Tristan home the 2nd time. I remembered the first time was some auspicious ceremony after his 1st month that they have to bring him back to pray to our ancestors.

Nothing much, it just some regular “interchange shopping” that we used to do when we are at home. Ohya, it was the day when she brought me surprise; my early Christmas present (my Samsung F480 pink phone).

Then we went walking round interchange in this manner.
 
He does look uncomfortable, but seriously I think he’s not, because he was sleeping in this position very quietly. He was quite obedient for not crying in public areas in being carried in such manner.
 
 


Second meet up:

We went facial together for the second round!

Luckily we managed to have dinner together, which was supposed to be cancelled! I was actually very happy and contented with it though it was just a dinner only.

We always ordered for couple room whereby we can do facial together.

This wasn’t consulted for permission.

My facial consultant tried to squeeze my pimple out which she had made my condition worst >.<

Now, it felt a scar there. I hope I would be able to get rid of it before Chinese New Year. I still remember the process. It was AGONIZING!! When I was about to fall asleep from the relaxing mood, I was stunned when she started to do something to my pimple. I think she used the tip of her thumb and index finger to squeeze my pimple. It totally wakes me up from my sleepy mood. It lasted less than 5 minutes where she keeps on poking my pimple. It felt as though someone punched and pinched the face! Of course it bleeds, painful experience. I think I was squinting my eyes all the while. It’s quite funny to think about my expressions.

We had dinner at a coffee shop, somewhere near, on the way to Outram Park station. We actually ate at the place unknowingly, not because of the food, but rather we followed our instinct. We followed the crowd. We went there twice and it is always crowded with people. So we assumed that the food would be good, if not there wouldn’t be so many people queuing for it.

Their specialty is porridge; especially frog porridge.

 This is what we had.
Something different would be the “sashimi”. I think it’s quite rare (at least for me) to have this dish at 煮炒摊。It tasted really well with the fried onions, chili and lime juice.


Third meet up:

We arranged to meet up with my parents. They wanted to see their grandson badly. So we had lunch at IKEA on one of the Saturday afternoon.

See this picture?
It tells u that babies goes after boobs and not mummy face. This little fellow was trying to attack his grandmother boobs, informing her that it’s time for him to eat too. There goes his bad temper (cries~), the only way for him to express recently.


This is wad we had for lunch:
Salmon fishee …

Mine Favourite: chicken wings
 
And of course the meat balls.
Look kind of disgusting? I know …

But it really taste nice with the jam and the potato sauce~

Talking about him recognising boobs, my sis hurried up finished her food and quickly feed him. There he goes, sucking his milk.
Everyone was staring at him. He had attracted everybody’s attention.
Such caring parents he had. To prevent him from getting the blazing sunlight, they prepared him with this cute goggle, or u may think that it’s a sunglass!


Forth meet up:

Esprit Post link

Yea, it’s the ANGRY ESPRIT spree.


Yes, I brought nothing back from the sales >.<

Had lunch cum dinner before shopping.

It was my first experience eating at the “The Soup Spoon”.

There’s always a first time towards everything.


I had mine:


Tangy Tomato with Basil
It is a vegetarian puree of roasted tomatoes and basil. Orangey hue with a tinge of red, this soup is creamy and has the smell of freshly roasted tomatoes blended to perfection. On first taste, it slides down the throat with smoothness, first tasting tangy and then slightly spicy leaving a warm tingling after taste.
Herbed Chicken Caesar
Rosemary Chicken, Onion, Cucumber, Romaine Lettuce, Tomato, Caesar Dressing


She had hers:



Velvety Mushroom Stroganoff
Feels almost like eating fresh mushrooms out of the field. The mushrooms are so smooth, they glide down the throat. This soup is overpowering with the aroma of mushrooms perfect for mushroom lovers.
Smoked Ham & Cheese
Smoked Ham, Cheddar Cheese, Green Salad, Honey Mustard Mayo
I prefer my tangy tomato soup over the mushroom soup. Tangy Tomato with Basil was a very appetizing soup as it is not very sourly and spicy; just nice. But as for the mushroom soup, you get sick of it when had more spoonful due to the strong mushroom taste.


It was a very filling meal indeed.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That's all for now...

“We concerned about each other’s well being only because we love each other. Without love, a tie would cease to exist. Then, there is trust, understanding and devotion that make important people who they are. If you do not have such feeling towards them, then it will never ever be a group of closely-bonded people; rather it would be a group of individuals that is known as acquaintance.”

The playback of my kiddy stage …

The playback of my kiddy stage …

This is my friend – Q

We know each other since Primary 1?? That was like so long ago man!
IT’s equivalent to 13 years of friendship …

We went through the same primary school --> Fengshan Primary
I still have our primary 2 group photo…

We went through the same secondary school also --> Bedok Green

But sadly is … We didn’t manage to stay contact all the time, partly due to and most probably
MY FAULT!
.
.


The journey back to my Elementary days


We were besties in Primary school. I still remembered that we used to have the diary for everyone to write their Profile and their favorites and poems in that little book. We would use colourful pens for different sections and we tried to make it as wordy as possible.

I still have it with me ….
Whahahahaha … filled with memories!

We live quite near to each other, just few streets away and we used to hang out quite often with her elder sister as well. She will come to my place while I will go her house on different occasions and we will just hang out till time up to go home (which would be around evening).

Then we started to grow older and taller …
From Primary 1 to Primary 2, to Primary 3, to Primary 4, to Primary 5, to Primary 6…
And then from Secondary 1 to Secondary 2 then to Secondary 3 and Secondary 4.

Primary school was all right as we still keep close contact with one another. But things changed after we leveled to secondary school
.

The vague phrase of my High school life


As we went to different classes and met new friends, things changed. I started to focus on my newly acknowledged buddies and neglected her. So we started to drift off from one another … I went astray, while she remained the same? So I guess it’s my fault lor …

Playing back my memories, I think we hardly contact one another expect for the first year. Then we go separated ways as we had our own friends and own life. For the 4 years in school, though we are just 2 classes apart, we hardly see one another.

I guess it’s the saying:
People comes in and goes out of your life.

Then we got disconnected. We graduated and went separated ways.

We
reconnected through one of our common friend recently, and I’m VERY delighted that we did so …

I’m glad that I didn’t feel awkward when we meet up on last Saturday.

I may be shyly uncomfortable when I’m around with strangers or so called “acquaintance” as I may not be able to express myself the way I am with usual …
[its true la, don’t doubt]

We went to have lunch at this Japanese Restaurant located at Marina Square. I forgot the name of the restaurant, not sure if it’s “Tomo Japanese Restaurant”? But it is easy to recognized, as it is located near the centre of venue …

It’s a restaurant with a welcoming ambiance to me as there is not much customers around that busy timing, so we had our meals peacefully and enjoy chatting with one another.

I would recommend their sashimi for their freshness. Usually I don’t eat raw sashimi much as I would prefer the side menu (tofu, goyza, etc) more.

**So can give it a try for its peaceful environment and of course and fresh sashimi.


I love to take the leftover shots recentleee ...
Impressionably, it seems like our outing has been eating non stopped, though we just had 3 meals together.
We watched “BOLT”...

Personally think it’s funny but not that fantastically good.

This time i definitely love Rhino more than mittens. He’s such a adorable fat hamster with his 2 tooth stucking of his mouth.

We ordered a large milk tea. To show how big it is, we use assorted items to compare with it. haha, yala, we are kind of "bo liao"
Now you see how "big" it is.....
Are you cam-whoring?
This is what people are doing IT everywhere … So naturally we just to the toilet and stood infornt of the mirror.
Doesn't she looks cute with her teeths?

hahahahaha, i got a plaster to cover my pimple!!


When we are just irresistibly snapping non-stop, a weird lady came talking to us. And ask if Q is Malaysian. And funny thing is she replied she is Japanese and came up with a Japanese name. I thought the conversation would end, but the old lady keeps on asking weird questions like whether we are this or that dialect. Persistently pressing on for our answers, luckily she dragged me out and says that the old lady is lunatic. I think she knows how to perceive people better than I do.

Monday, December 8, 2008

I’m soo determined to write a post today!

I’m soo determined to write a post today!

This event happened during 3 and 4 December.

This post goes around “Benson”??

Anyway, the problem is …. WE DO NOT KNOW WHEN HIS BIRTHDAY IS!!!

Supposed it was on the 27 dec, however he said it was the false date >.<

Anyway, we went to shop for his present earlier that day…

Met up with Ying, Cj, Gh and Benji …

But in the end we got him a shirt; pretty handsome (:

We had Gh to try the shirt on as we thought he is slightly slimmer then Gh … WHO KNOWS! We are wrong >.<

Stubborn fellow!!!

After mission accomplished, we went to have dinner, somewhere near Bugis Street. We had Vegetarian Food as dinner. Actually it’s rather flavorsome and appetizing.

Attention-grabbing of the day!!

I found something interestingly when we were browsing through the food menu.

Which is this …

Have anyone tried before?
I wonder how it tastes like. Would it be savory?
Something spicy, sugary or salty?
I’m not so adventurous at all… haha!

Guess what this it …
It’s not Chrysanthemum Tea…
NOT urine either (pls >.<) …

Answer: Organic Barley …
I wonder; what’s wrong with the colouring?

The hugg-ery moment …



The next so called surprise day!

We knew he wouldn’t want to celebrate his birthday, so we prepare a so called “surprise celebration”.

During breakout, they went to get the donuts and cakes and we gathered at his block.

But he wasn’t in his class, so we spoke to his classmates. Hmm, they were rather “un-sociable” at first when we tried to find out Benson’s location.

Anyway, the guys caught him when he returned to his class. Rather funny as they dragged him like “a pig going to be slaughter” to the corner where we celebrated for him.







First, he got smashed by the cake by kelvin…

Then he goes around chasing people with the leftover cakey stuffs.

Ying and I stood still to look over the things BUT who knows we got smashed also!
This is the Idiot ....
I'm so scarred >.<







Thanks to the Bo Liao people, I been smelling the cakey leftover on my hair for the whole afternoon.

IT’’s GROSS AND SICKENING SMELL!

I feel like so nausea everytime I smelt it…

Eerrrgghh!!! ( I will curse the person who did it to me for the next time!)
