Thanks Miss Clarity Cafe for the food and services!

Birthday Post #1

Ding! Ding! Ding! The photos from my birthday celebration on Tuesday, a simple dinner gathering. We were at Miss Clarity Cafe, suggested by yours truly. I went there once and I do think the food there is fabulous, plus there was no GST & service charge leh! You can visit their website for more details and food they provide. =) Yanqi said she was salivating when she surfed the website in office, LOL.

I told them to wear super nice clothes, but actually, they are always in nice outfits since they are working adults, heh heh, it's me who needed to dress up lor. So I did! 是美的咯！Seldom see myself so pretty can...

So pretty, cannot not take photos right? Shoot #1...

Shoot #2...

Shoot #3. Noticed I had the same smile plastered on my face? Ha ha, 嘴巴是酸的咯

So I pout! See, so adorable!

The loving couple!

The happy us

I had the exact same pose, same smile on a photo from donkey years ago. Dunno how to pose alone

The ambience in the cafe, it's THIS dark... No florenscent lights, only candles. No wonder no extra charges, coz they only need to pay electricity for air-con. Not good for me, coz the clumsy me kept getting my hands burnt when reaching to get sauce or pepper.

This is what I ordered, Bangers & Mash. The creamy stuff is potato mash whipped with butter. Very nice! Although Xueling laughed when she spotted the 2 huge hotdogs. She is notti notti!

Yanqi's fish. I forgot the name already. This is also very nice, the fish just melt in your mouth! Soft & juicy!

Ronald's plate, also my favourite dish coz the name is very cute: Old MacDonald Had a Farm. Really like a farm, there's all sorts of meat! Even after giving some meat to us, there was still a lot left! This is how the menu described: "Medley of steak, lamb chop, crispy chicken, chipolata, bacon, ham & potato wedges served with clarity's special black pepper sauce topped with sunny side up" 真的是什么种的肉都有！

Xueling's Roasted Chicken Leg. Actually, it looked more like my leg, coz it is so big! Then again, not correct coz my leg is bigger. Anyway, couldn't finished all the stuffs... There were potato wedges and mushrooms! Yummy!

A surprise cake! I was still waiting for them to check the bill, but somehow none of them asked for it. I kept asking, "Want to go already or not?" and they bohiew me. When the crew showed up with this cake, I was really really surprised coz I tot there wouldn't be a cake since it was supposed to be just dinner gathering! The cake came with a lot of candles lor! Instead of 2 big 4 small candles, she put all the candles given lor, which were 3 big 5 small. Wah lau... Do we look that old? That's why got 2 holes in the cake coz we took out the extra ones.

Yanqi specially ordered this ice-cream cake from Angie's Choice. It was the smallest she could order, but then becoz Ivy and Dennis & gf cannot make it, so there were only 4 of us eating it, and therefore we just ate the ice cream and omit the cake. A bit wasteful, but bo pian... I take back to hostel also no fridge! Ronald actually wanted to give me "facial" with this cake, wah lau, the cake is so ex, I rather eat to my death lor! He wouldn't dare anyway since we were in public place, and I was more worried about my makeup which took me like 1.5 hrs. LOL.

This was all remained. The cream is not those butter cream that you will get sick of, it's very light and not-so oily, like icing, minus the sweetness. The cake is good.

I will upload the videos of the birthday song and cake cutting. Becoz Ronald was the the camera man with my camera, so he missed my birthday wish part. Too bad, coz I made a fantabulostatic wish: A boyfriend! But I said it out loud, so it won't come true, they said one... Well, doesn't really matter, I'm blessed with the best family and nicest friends, no need to wish anymore. =)

There were more photos, but stupid me forgot to turn on the flash lah! So the photos are all dark and ghostly, sianz... We were posing so happily lor!

Stay tune for post #2. =)

Thanks!

Dear all

Thanks for making my day so special! It will take a few entries to document what happened today.

First, let me settle my assignment first.

ZzZzZz

Turning 24

I just turned 24. I will be exactly 24 at *deleted*
When I was 4, I can't imagine 24. When I was 14, 24 seemed like a long way to go. Now that I'm 24, I felt old, yet not old enough =(

At 24, I'm still...

1. a school kid
2. getting money from my parents
3. fat
4. don't have any idea of my future
5. struggling with my studies
6. having zero sense of urgency
7. refused to read & learn about politics
8. single
9. act like I'm 17
10. wasting precious time
11. don't have any achievements that I'm proud of myself
12. don't know what is adjectives and what is adverbs
13. need to think for 5 seconds for simple calculations
14. never washed the windows in my house
15. left Dad's pants for Mum to iron
16. not cooking any proper meals
17. letting Mum did all the sewing for me
18. sleep with my teddy bears
19. keeping items that I had since P1
20. haven't master the knowledge of astronomy after 5 years involvement
21. haven't think for my future
22. asking permission to eat chocolates at home
23. myopic
24. procrastinate

Some people could achieve so much at 24, I wonder how they do it. Nevertheless, I still proud being an ultra-optimistic-happy-go-lucky girl who doesn't care being overweight although I kept wanting to lose it. Ha...

Shit shit shit shit

My FYP supervisor wants to see me on Tuesday, on my birthday?

How wonderful! Damn sweet of him. Grr...

I love drawings

About a week ago or so, I was being tasked to draw a bunny for Jamie's artwork, coz she stubbornly wanted a side-view of a bunny's and her drawing of her side-view bunny looked like it was a rabbit's head stuck on a tortoise's body. Jia was supervising her all that time while she did the artwork before they requested me to help her draw the bunny, just plainly drawing and no coloring.

Jia said it was a retribution for her, who had her primary school artworks (not all, but mostly) done by either me or my deceased godfather, to have to supervise Jamie. LOL.

Anyway, with an image of a side-view bunny & my first bunny drawing as a template, I whipped out something decent. I forgot to take a picture of it.

I still vaguely remember the first nice bunny I drew, was actually a bunny picture in an assessment book. I was not supposed to write on the assessment book, instead, I was to write the questions and answers into an exercise book (That probably explained why I was such a details freak back in my younger days) by my tuition teacher. Somehow, with a one-way track of thinking, I also copied the bunny into the exercise book. I think my tuition teacher praised my drawing, although I was so afraid she would scold me for wasting time, heh heh. She named her second daughter using my name, 思琪 to 恩琪, changing the "十" to a "大" in the "思", so I assumed I must have been her favourite kid. Eh... must be lah, I was such a honest and naive kid that I admitted I broke wind because I had a terrible stomach. Much amusement to her and the other kids (all boys) during the tuition. Gosh.

I sort of remembered that I loved drawings (more like copying actually) when I was in primary school. I had this girl sitting beside me in P2, who could really draw, and she always drew pretty princess whenever we finished our work. So I copied her and learned to draw the same way. She was very nice to point out where I done wrong. The jotter book was filled with all those princesses, with a fantastic stats of 36-22-36. I didn't know why she drew them like that, I just copied. I drew them so much that my P2 form teacher praised my drawings coz he happened to see my jotter book. I think the girl scowled. LOL.

In sec. 2, we had to do still-life drawing, I was too dumb to see the different light contrasts and tones, so yet again, I copied my good friend's who was sitting beside, who was an art talent. The items were a kettle, a pineapple, a basket with a towel inside. I drew them almost all the same way except the skin of the pineapple, in which she drew them the conventional way like we do, you know, the diagonals lines with some details to make them look real. I actually drew them the exact same way I saw, with leaf-life skin falling (I'm a details-freak). It was a torture, but then it was worth the hard work. I got 37 while my friend got 35. LOL. Now thinking back, I realised what a bitch I had been. I was shocked at the marks and told her right in the face, "Wah! I copied your one sill got higher marks than you ah!" Thank goodness my friend was a kind girl who didn't took it too hard, she even said, "Your copying skills is very good leh!" I'm so blessed with nice friends.

The interest for drawing was replaced by cooking during sec. 3 & 4, no more art lessons mah.

During polytechnic, drawing became doodling, when I was bored during lessons and not sleeping. I did one drawing though, flyers for my astro club during CCA week. So concentrated on the drawings that the details for the orientation were wrong and I didn't fix it before printing, partly becoz my president informed me too late also. Bleahz!

Recently, I saw a booth for comic drawing in school and I do feel like taking part. PZ and me wanted to take a course in comic drawing back when I was still in poly and she in JC. We went to the shop located and wah lau, that guy dun hiew us, so we ended didn't join.

I think I still love to draw. I still kept the drawing from my cousins who drew us (Jia and me) those Jap cartoons characters when we were still toddlers.

With so many interests, sometimes I feel like I'm good at anything. But, there were also times which I think I suck at everything. Definitely, I have changed a lot. I'm now no more a detail freak, coz I do not expect my handwriting to be straight 90 degrees and 180 degrees parallel to the edge of paper if there were no lines.

I am so nua sia now aka procrastinator.

Shopping

Miss Ng was saying she spent quite a lot these few days, despite that the shopping venue was in NTU itself. There was a bazaar going on in the canteens. Sad to say, I'm also one of the victims.

"最近心情很好，就想花钱!" she said.
"不是心情不好才会想要买东西吗？Hmm... Actually, 不管开心 or not, 女人都是会花钱买东西的。" I replied.

Hor?

Optimistic-ism

To all my friends, families, passr-bys & everyone
If you have been always been disgruntled, unhappy, sick and tired of life, here's a phrase which I picked it up from an email which I find it really true.

Being happy doesn't mean everything's perfect.
It means you've decided to see beyond the imperfections.

First birthday present!

I received my first birthday present today!
It's a beautiful keychain. =)

Miss Ng also gave me a bottle of moisturiser, Grapefruit, smell very nice!!! =)

Double Sadness

Kenna fine for not switching off fan is making me very sad. Realised my favourite ring disappear only after 6 hours I went back doubled the sadness.

There's a high probabilty that the person who left me the "fine" letter is the thief, coz I left my ring on the table on the spot where the letter was. But I'll be making a mountain out of a molehill if I make a report, coz the ring costs only $2.90.

The only reason I could think of why she wanted to steal this cheap ring was it looked like a white gold or platinum ring, which is also the reason why I like it so much.

A $2.90 ring looks like it cost $290.

Sianz half.

I did thought of myself misplacing the ring. Coz it so happened last night that I was thinking I seldom wore my favourite ring coz it looked too classy and was looking for a place to put. But where I put it seemed to be erased from my memory bank. I searched whichever possible place I could have and no trace of it. I dun even have the deja vu feeling that "I did put my ring here before".

Sianz full.

Kenna fine...

For the first time in 3 years, I was fined for not switching off my fan. Oh my! I reminded myself to post a sticky memo on the switch so as to remind myself to switch. I forgot it.

Haiz...

Oh My Goodness Gracious Me!

Somebodything stole my stinking socks!

Update
Logically, it couldn't be a someone because no one will stole smelly socks. So Jia made the perfect logical reason: Stray cats.
And somehow it made perfect sense to me: My socks were in the shoes for 2 weeks unwashed and probably it smelled so much like salted fish.
Another reason I could think of is the nice cleaning auntie threw it away thinking it was some rubbish. (Highly possible coz my socks were of pale blue colour, rolled up and looked like used paddings minus the redness. :P)

CNY Woe

This CNY preparation is cutting big holes in my pockets!

But I like. The wonderful of shopping therapy. Heh heh heh.

Went Heeren and Far East Plaza with DL today. Oh my, it was another round of pretty things, but this time it was shoes! Pretty pretty shoes!

Chio chio chio.

The shoes are even chioer to me if they are cheap, like $10 per pair. The life expectancy of a shoes, no matter how expensive, how comfortable, how good they are, normally it won't survive more than 20 wears under my feet. So I always go for the less than $20 per pair. However, ever since I manage to get a pair of decent heels at $10 last November, $15 to me is expensive already.

But I broke this rule and bought a pair of metallic shiny purple heels for $27.10. Bo pian, it just caught my heart! Well, not before the pair of $10 red heels though. =)

I imagined myself matching clothes easily with that red heels during trying. Wah ha ha ha. Jesseca Liu, one of the 7 Mediacorp princesses, told Bryan Wong in that variety show, 扮美达人, that every girl should have a pair of red shoes. Supposedly that it goes with a lot of colours.

I totally agree. =)

Never mind the fact that Jia pointed out: 你又不常穿heels!

Soon lah soon lah! Heh Heh.

I should be glad that my brain is still functional

I was waiting for the shuttle bus with a group of trendy girls when came along a guy wobbling on 2 crutches. However, he had no cast on him.

Bimbo A: Eh, you think which leg did he hurt?
Bimbo B: I think the left one, he seemed to hop on his right foot.
Bimbo C: Yah lor, usually we cannot exert pressure on the hurting foot, damn painful one leh! (Like we dunno like that)
Bimbo A & B: Yah lor yah lor
Bimbo D: But then I see he seemed to use his left leg to move forward leh?
Bimbo B: Got meh? Eh, looks like leh...
Bimbo D: Eh, or is it the right foot?

Poor Guy, asking the bimbos: Does the bus go to SCI?

Bimbo A: I think so... Not very sure
Bimbo B: I think all the buses here go to SCI

Me, tak boleh tahan: The bus here will get you to SCI

Poor Guy: Which bus?

Me: There's only one bus, route C, for this bus stop.

Bimbos, whispering rather loudly among themselves: Oh... Only one bus ah, I tot got 3 buses here leh...

After we boarded the bus, at the next stop

Bimbo A: Eh, want to eat at can 2 or not? We here already...
Bimbos: Anything lor
Bimbo A: How? How? Want to alight?

The bus drove off.

Bimbo C: 2 more stops then we alight ok? We will be at canteen 4. Eh, how's the food there?
Bimbo D: Not bad, tat time we were on Campus Yummy and ... (couldn't catch the words)
Bimbo B: Hey, we arrived already.
Bimbo A: You sure we at Hall 4? Doesn't look like leh...
Bimbo B: It is lah...
Bimbo A: I dun seem to remember coming here before...

Chitter chatter as they alight. Thank goodness.

The Moronicles of SQ047

I was trying to deposit money using ATM card (POSB GO!) since my bankbook was fully printed. Somehow, after trying out 2 machines, both refused to read my password and declared service was unavailable for my account.

Turned out that I was inserting Cashcard instead of ATM card. -_-"

How exciting

I had a resume request on JobsDB.com, but it was back a week ago. Anyway, I approved it for release, no harm, right? I only released the one I filled out in JobsDB.com, and not the attached.

The requestor from RecruitExpress emailed me for a more updated resume! Been really lazy to do a really nice and updated one. Oh yah, I had no idea what the job is also.

Very excited, I felt like I'm back to 3 years ago, all those job hunts.

Kaoz.

Hello Panda

OH MY GOODNESS! HELLO PANDA GOT NEW SPORTS PRINTING!

Actually, I don't really bother. I just popped the biscuits into my mouth one after another without looking at the prints at all. =D

Anyway, I went to Bugis Junction and Bugis Village today with KY, and my vision was flooded with clothes! Lots and lots of pretty clothes! How I wished I could bring them all back. It has been donkey years since I last went to Bugis Village, and what a big transformation! One thing for sure, I'm so totally out of that place, it's a haven for teenagers!

Damn, old liao.

Uber sweet coffee

I'm a coffee addict. I need a cup of coffee every morning.

Today was my godpa's death anniversary and we had to pay our respects to him at 8am in the morning. So we went for a family breakfast at the Cheng San market. It was already 8 plus, and the ceremony was supposed to start at 8.30am. Seeing that Jia and Min were still eating, I decided to go and dabao a packet of coffee, and Dad told me to go the stall that has the best coffee.

Their business was so good that the queue had almost like 20 people! Thinking it might take a long time, I decided not to buy. So I went back, exclaiming how long the queue was. "Nice coffee is like that one..." Dad said, in his usual Chinese-Hokkien language which Mum needed to translate for me sometimes. Then he walked off to somewhere, and we all thought he was going to the toilet, which was quite a habit of his. Just moments before he returned, we all thought he "fainted in the toilet".

He came back with 2 packets of coffee! From that super duper busy stall!

The coffee was indeed nice and sweet！

Min: 为什么大姐要吃到两碗 kway chup? Then 我只吃一碗？
Jia: 因为大姐是 XL, 你是 S, 所以她就吃比较多咯！
Min: 吃酱多作莫？还不是要大便！
Jia: ... -_-"
Me: ???

Aiyoh!!!

This is so embarassing! I mistake someone as my fren and I smacked him using my lecture notes!!! And I only realised he was not my friend 30 secs later!

Teddy who?

82039967

This number has been appearing on my phone lately. The first time I picked it up, I dismissed it as wrong number and hanged up on it. So when this bugger kept calling, I never bothered to pick it. Most probably a guy with finger cramps who dialed wrongly to my number when he was actually looking for CNA (not channel news asia, a engineering company) which happened most of the time.

Until just now I decided to listen and ask him to stop.

Him: "Hi, is this *mumble* *mumble*?"
Me: "Huh? Huh? What? Who are you looking for?"
Him: "Are you *mumble * *mumble*?"
Me: "I think you got the wrong number."
Him: "Are you S-I-Q-I?"
Me, stunned: "Yes, who are you?"
Him: "This is *mumbles*"
Me: "Er..."
Him: "We talked a few months ago"
Me: "Did we?"
Him: "Yeah, about three months ago, we met on Friendster *blah blah blah*"
Me: "You said you are...?"
Him: "Teddy. Thailand, England, Double D, Y"
Me: "Oh... Okie... Er..."

3 months? 3 years more likely coz I'd stopped giving my number to online dudes like free tissue papers since before uni! So I had zero idea who this guy is, he doesn't sound local neither does he sound foreign. And simply because I don't recall talking to him 3 months ago!

Eww... Anyway, while we were chatting, I was trying to root him out in Friendster but there wasn't any messages that was from him. Anyway, most probably he won't hear from me again coz I decided to ignore him.

This is as weird as the uncle selling beefball kway tiao talking to me for the first time after 2 years plus. Maybe he wasn't and I thought he was but I assumed he was since he still remembered I don't want onion springs. =)

Listen to yourself

It's the seasonal period of adding and dropping courses (aka modules). Moving into the final semester, courses that are easy and project-free are the most popular. However, how easy is easy? As we all know, different people interpret "easy" differently.

So I was coaxed into dropping Web Services for one of these: Wireless or Digital Communications, both rumoured to be easy. Web Services is deemed unpopular because there is a project, which we final year student don't really like because we want to channel our energy resources in our FYP. But for me, Web Services is one module which I have confident in getting a B, at least.

Anyway, I dropped Web Services, and wanted to take Wireless, but it clashed with my Database. So I choose Digital Communications, but the time - table was no longer pretty, as in I don't have a 4-day week anymore, so I dropped my Computer Security and thinking of getting the register office to get fit me into one of the Wireless class so that I can squeeze into 4-days again. I was thinking of going to the office when I talked to another friend, and she said she had a friend failing Digital Communications! Exactly the kind of news I didn't want to know, so she recommended Telecommunications Systems.

In any case, another friend showed me the notes for Telecomm and I immediately knew that I wouldn't get pass this module. Although it was memory work, but, calculations taunted me, for I will make careless mistakes and still think I'm correct.

Anyway, after struggling with decisions and the system, I'm back to square one: i.e. I'm back to my original timetable; taking the courses I dropped (I couldn't snatch it back already).

I already got my preferred slots and the time-table was soothing to the eyes: 4-days week, and the breaks in between were justifiable (long breaks irks me). Because I was not firm enough, my decision was swayed by "rumours" and ended up in a shitty situation. Now I'm afraid that I won't be allocated my preferred slots, then time-table will be so haywire, what if I can't get back the slot I planned with my friends and I would be so alone. Boo-hoo-hoo.

I really shouldn't be so fickle-minded, I had done the homework of checking the past exam papers, I should know what modules fit me. Unlike the past where I don't have the choice to decide what I want to study and thus screwing up every exam. Now that I can choose what is best for me yet I blindly followed what people said. Now, I felt like I'm running to join the others only to realise I'm in the wrong path and hurt my legs somemore.

Stupid stupid stupid

JB trip

Just before school started, I went to JB with SH & SF, and our tour leader was KY, who used her humble car to drive us around. We had so much food & fun, ha ha ha. Not to mention the bargains we got over there: Everything was divided by 2. :P

I was very excited when SH sent me the photos, coz I wanted to see the fun we had mah. When I was clicking on every photos, and when I saw myself, only two words came to my mind: No neck

Anyway, we had so much food for dinner that I thought we wouldn't be able to finish, but we did! Pretty impressive for 4 girls.

Check out the photos!

Me, SF & KY

With da desserts

Blueberry Cheesecake, Yummy!

Chocolate truffle, Heavenlicious

Spastic me with no neck

• Tom Yum Soup
• Sambal Stingray
• Teppan Tofu
• Satays
• Yong Tau Foo
• Char Siew Fried Bao
• Egg Tart
• 3 suger cane drinks
• 1 coconut

Burp!

Resolutions 2008

My legs are sore from yesterday's jog, but it felt so damn shiok! 1mm nearer to my goal of a slimmer me. Wah ha ha ha.

I brought forward my top 2007's resolution, which was also my 2006's, also my 2005's blah blah blah... Lost Weight! Many a times, I read successful lose-weight articles in magazines, or heard from own friends' true lose weight process, I was inspired but not determined. Even when I was badly "humiliated" by my friends (not really friends, were teammates), I told myself I must prove them wrong, still, I just couldn't lose more than 3kgs and I'm back to round one. I was really weakly determined, snacking on Pringles after my jog yesterday. Alright, for now, like what Miss Gwee said, "lose weight to take on the CNY goodies!" Mu ha ha ha. Oh yah, seems like 25kg in 6 months is possible, ya'know? But that means consistent workout and food control. :(

#2 resolution: Stop procrastinate. This bad habit had caused me some sufferings, such as slow progress in FYP, pile up the tutorials, last minute revision. And I also have a lot of other miscellaneous things that required some attention, but since it was not important, I have been pushing them since back like 100 years ago. Even the list of things I do is no use, coz I never bother to look. Must stick them big big in front of me liao. The old me actually used to complete my list of things to do, haiz... After 21, everything seemed difiicult, and I'm supposed to be in my prime! Kaoz.

#3 resolution: Be super diligent, which is actually the total opposite of procrastination lah. So #3 shall be: Dun anyhow buy things, even if it's cheap. Got $400 debt to repay.

#4 resolution: Don't be a parasite at home. Sometimes I really dislike what I am.

#5 resolution: Complain less about people, must see the good side of them. Also, be nicer to friends, especially friends whom I hardly meet up nowadays. I had a friend who MSNed this: People don't care how much you know until you know how much they care. Sometimes I'm really ought to be shot for talking non-stop, without asking a friend, "How are you?". I was really guilty when I saw a friend's blog post about friendship, which she ended with this sentence: "And for those who can't be bothered (as in bothered to ask her how she is, even for 5 mins), I am still alive."

It struck me really really really bad. It felt like tight, tight slaps up, down, left, right on my face.

We sometimes take friends for granted so much that we assume they will be there when we need them, but never did it occur they need us too. Reading her post really made me cried in shame, thinking about friends who have done so much for me and I've done so little for them, and one whom I've hurt deeply that I've lost her friendship. I've always thought, "No money = no go out with friends", but in fact, it doesn't mean bonding must be physically together and talk, a simple "How are you" thru messengers makes a great difference too.

I was such an idiot, but now I no longer am. The world does not just revolve around me, there's everybody!

School is back

School starts officially tomorrow. Thank gooodness my lesson starts on Tuesday.

Need to go to school and print my notes and time-table.

Final race, Jiayou!

8-Legged Freak

I was sweeping the floor today and I noticed 2 tiny spiders. I killed them without battling my eyelids for I have no love for them. I wondered where the hell they came from tho.

2 hours later, I suddenly had the mood to check out the "pretty string of mini black pearls" that was formed on my door a couple of weeks ago, out of curiosity.

I got the answer for my question.

Turned out that pretty string of shit was some spider's eggs and the baby spiders had "came out to play". It was not a pretty sight to see legs coming of that string of pearls. Holy Meh Meh De!

I wrenched in discomfort and speeded to the living room crying out for help. I got Dad to clean it for me. He just "ehm" and his eyes went back to the TV. Seeing how engrossed he was watching the 881 girls singing in the skimpy outfits, I went to get the Baygone myself.

Dad jumped out and came to my rescue when he saw me arming with Baygone (I think he was more afraid I would spoil his door with the Baygone)

Dad sprayed heartlessly at the spiders who were still sleeping in the comfortable egg caskets. Never mind he was a little out of range when he sprayed (he aimed correctly at the third spray), it was disgusting to see the spiders wringling their feet, my hair rised and I jumped. My brain also jumped out coz when Dad asked me to get some broom to clear them, I dunno why, I just dashed straight to the living room and got him tissues to wipe when I have a box of tissue in my room. Seriously couldn't think straight.

I had a really bad lesson learnt: Never procrastinate! I should have wipe those eggs away the day I spotted them!

Baking is fun??!!??

Seems like everyone around me is either making cakes or baking biscuits... yet my faithful oven that I bought during secondary school days to practise for F&N had been banished to be a cupboard for the rags. Oi Miss Ng, I want ur chocolate souffles!

Tsk tsk tsk

Mum wanted me to test the oven siah...So that she could throw away if it spoiled. (She had a kick for throwing things away lately) I had promised her I would do it after my exams.

Hello! It's January 2008 already!!!

I am lazy to buy flour and sugar, and most importantly, lazy to do the mixture coz we have no machine. Henceforth, I will have to do the manual way if I want to bake!

Maybe I'll make some of my favorite cookies for my birthday. =D

Alright, it's been a tiring day becoz of the trip to JB, I still have not done a lot of things which includes listing my resolutions too. Need to blog my expenditure also...

Yawn...

2007 resolution checklist & summary

3. Be diligent: Passed, ultra diligent in studying for my IE and watching movies. LOL.
4. Be thrifty: Passed, coz I picked all the cheap items.
5. Learn something new: Failed, I dun think I learn anything leh.

Need to do a proper list of resolutions. And a summary of my 2007:

January was full of complains about my IA, and also a very sad month towards the end coz of Godpa's sudden death. A sad birthday too. Virgin trip to Vivocity!

Febuary was full of mahjong games becoz of CNY, still sucky about my IA.

March was full of fun: Chionging Zouk, bought a top in less than 5 mins, went for free movie.

April was full of disastrous encounters: Weird people, fell down, kenna suan by Sup, saw a humongous lizard.

May was full of anticipation: IA was ending and I couldn't wait to leave; List of FYP was launched and I couldn't wait to start (Ironically, I did not complete much I thought I would)

June was full of events: PT job, Special Sem Lesson, Ivy's Pageant, went back to IA company to do FOC servicing.

July was full of addiction & troubles: Unhappy with my PT job, hurt my toenail, found out some unappy stuffs from a friend's blog.

August was busy: Camps, school start officially, many projects, and a bitch/bastard who took out my laundry before it was finished.

September was ultra busy but happy: Rush HRM report, bought 2 berms for the price of 1, ate Botak Jones.

October was full of stress: Insomnia, presentation, personal space kenna invaded, ants inasion and a Miss Ng-brightened-the-day-with-her-2-colors-slippers. Oh the non-stress was we caught Lust Caution NC16 version only to be notified that uncut version was to be released soon in November.

November was uber dramatic: Exams, projects deadline, noodle uncle asked me to go home, prof comm presentation got me hysterical

December was lazy & happy month: 2nd place in darts, decent results, chop off half of my hair for a refreshing look, attended 2 weddings, visited Chek Jawa.

Hope 2008 will be a better year!

Happy New Year!

This post is late, 1st Jan has almost gone by half now.

I still have not complete the things on my "To-Do" list... jiatlat siah... Not to mention that "to complete 50% of my FYP" was in it also.

New year = New resolutions! Oh, I'm also gonna reflect on my past year too, see how much I had resolute.

Summary, the first half of 2007 was rather sucky because of IA. Still, 2007 seemed like a good year to me, or maybe because I don't really remember much of the unhappy things except that... I can't remember... Heh... Need to read my old archives to recall.

For a fresh start, I change my hair colour! It was a DIY kit which Jia helped me with it. I felt like a mentor when she was applying the cream to my hair, coz this was only her second try wheres I has done umpteen times for her. I used to go saloon to dye my hair coz Jia did not really had the knack for such beauty steps. Despite my hair being pulled without any compassion, I believe it will turn out pretty nice! I left it for an hour instead of the 35 minutes as suggested, coz our black hair is kinda resistive to hair dyes.

Happy New Year everyone!
