Laziness? Mind blank or mood swing? Haha... ya maybe the latter.
26 Feb (Fri)
Our 5 years 3 months. Met dear for dinner at Jurong West stadium for sushi. Didn't want to go far cos he had to go back hall to pack bag to go home for the weekends. We wanted simple and cheap jap dinner and we got what we wanted.
He likes ebiko, tamago, prawn and salmon. I like beancurd skin and salmon. I dislike any sushi that is spicy one... taste weird to me. We like salmon belly soup... but somehow it tasted a little little different from the past but we still finished it.
My new water bottle. Small = cute. Thanks dear :) and the tiko face haha...
27 Feb (Sat)
Went JB with family... supposed to meet the cuzzies at Kukup but got some misunderstanding and inconvenience so we didn't get to meet. Xiao gugu and da gugu families and Li Ling went in the morning to the chalet. Father drove us in in the evening with er gugu and we had seafood dinner there.
Ok some very messy photos... Marcus lighting up the fire crackers: from Mum showing him how to use the lighter, to him summoning his courage and walking up to my uncle's side, to him finally lighting the crackers and run!
Then we went inside the house...
And inside the house, actually outside worse... there were many worms, I don't know what is the exact name but you know those railway milipede kinda worms oh ya those that sometimes show up at PJC too lol...
In any case, I've got it on video. And I did cos I wanted to see exactly what kinda mechanism compelled it to move in such as railway-like manner haha... to which I regretted. Two reasons. 1) I watched the video right after and was shaking feeling irky. 2) Dad placed the same worm on my leg just when I happened to turn my body to show Marcus the video. And I freaked out. Yea, terribly in shock and tears flowing.... weakling huh?
28 Feb (Sun)
So we didn't stay over at uncle's house there cos haha... my father and I spoilt the mood. Who asked him to play that prank on me and how would I know why I reacted so badly. But well, they also didn't want to stay cos my bo mu's sister was there and my er gugu etc they didn't feel comfortable ba. So father drove us out around midnight.
Last day of the month, and wanted to go out with dear maybe just to hang out but didn't. It's also CNY last day... and like past years, spent it with family cos have to eat reunion dinner second round. Simple simple dinner is indeed satisfying :)
4 Mar (Thu)
Met the gang for steamboat dinner. Hmmm, I thought it was to celebrate Yixian's birthday but no celebration mood leh. Maybe cos it's just a dinner and on a week day night. If we could have gone out on a friday or weekends I think chilling out at some bar or some late night supper would be more fun.
I didn't take any photos of the steamboat cos when I wanted to take, we already started. And it was a little messy having to pass the many plates of the food around to put into the hot pot. I agree that the duck meat from the clear soup was tasty but I hadn't much appetite otherwise. I'm surprised at myself cos steamboat usually delights me haha cos everyone sitting around to eat together is fun. Well, at least it was still fun sitting around the round table even though I didn't eat a lot.
We went to TCC after that cos TY came only after our dinner. Similarly, I was hungry but I didn't order anything cos nothing appealled to me. Hmmm :( couldn't be helped I guess when the taste buds act all weird. I know I didn't want coffee and I didn't want anything iced. Hmmm maybe I missed out hot chocolate? That's what I would want.
The ever-ready pair. TY and gf.
Without flash & with flash.
Adding details as "watermark"...
5 Mar (Fri)
Accompanied dear to his Hall 6 Cultural Night perfomance at ACJC. It turned out to be a sc11 outing cos 6 people which was more than half the strength were present: Jh, Oli, XL, Fred, BH & Jan. Even though none of us planned for it... that's because Jh was performaning mah!
Had lots of laugh (quite bad hor me) at some of the preformaning items... especially the three umbrellas oops. I think I like the dance items most... totally awesome how some of the guys were that flexible in their moves. Some of the voices were damn rich too... right dear? You wanna k too right?
Haha, ya must find a day go k soon. Few months didn't sing ktv liao.

My dear friends of nine years, and this year is the tenth year. We went to the zoo yesterday as a gathering, a birthday celebration and a farewell outing. I enjoyed hanging out with the gang like this because we seem to travel back to sec sch days where we play all day. Took lotsa pictures but I only appear in a small fraction of them. And haha I only uploaded those with me in them on this entry lol.
I think this was the only group-minus-ty photo we took that day =p
Taken at the White Tiger enclosure with the girls. How come sg zoo doesn't have the normal orange tigers ah? Haha. Then soon after we went to the Splash Safari animal show and sat on the steps cos it was packed already at 1040 which started at 11am.
Taken on the tram with Yixian and Ah Meng. We were on our way to the next animal show - Elephants of Asia. Yixian rarely smile till so wide one leh... but the Ah Meng really like to act cool. This pic odd lehhaha...cos I'm smiling happily but he's so cool =|
After the show, we decided to finish walking around the Wild Africa area, Cat Country there
before heading to Kidzworld for our lunch. Bong and I were enjoying the air con blowing onto our faces at the lion glass viewing gallery? Forgot where liao la...
We took this beside the real giant tortoise with the fake giant tortoise haha. After Reptile Garden and Fragile Forest, we headed to Kidzworld KFC for lunch. I think this must be the most profitting KFC outlet on the island cos total monopoly in the zoo leh.
Not forgetting to take pictures around the kiddy stuffs -- tootootrain and the animal merry-go-where. I cannot take full body photos on my side view la, see my spare tyre... is not 3-layer meat lor is like 5-layer meat la!
Kangtai left for his dragonboat and the rest of us went to the dock a 3-mins walk from the Kidzworld. The boat guide helped every group to take photo and I shall applaude him for his initiative haha... we got his help again to take a photo of us on the dock.
We sent Yixian to the entrance after that cos she had to go give tuition. The rest of us accompanied me back to Kidzworld to see the giant rabbit...and we wasted a lot of time while Tusen Yung waiting poor-thingly at Causeway Point for us. Cos the tram wentone two big rounds at 20km/h and we made a detour to the souvenir shop to get a keepsake cum farewell gift for Bong. Somemore we stupidly waited for taxi at the taxi drop-off stand =.=" oops!
We finally made our way to Causeway Point and dear metme us :) there just nice when we arrived haha. Good timing. We Gelare for desserts and chat chat to decide what to do next... But cos they couldn't make up their mind, dear and I decided to split and meet up with them later. So Fu and I went to walk around shop shop...and we i mean he bought a red long sleeve shirt at John Little. It's good cos 20% storewide discount and he looks good in it too ^^
Yixian and Kangtai (yes they did) came back to find us leh and the bunch of us had dinner at Crystal Jade kitchen. Yummy, pig liver + sliced fish congee~ but I think next time don't order those set A set B cos I think not worth ba. Total spent about $52 in total the whole day.
PS: Ah Bong will be taking tonight flight for his exchange. We promise to take a group photo when Bong returned in half a year's time cos we didn't manage to take it with Tsuen Yung. Remember to being back pressies for us from Europe ah geez.

This was a side story I told gera and xin last sunday briefly: the very short "fling" I had with mr 黑人牙膏 or you guys nicknamed him "horse". Yes, I know no one (really almost no one) knew nothing between me and him. I will keep the story short. I knew him over the miRC but surely we knew each other by face and we moved on to smses and phone calls. I couldn't remember what it was that got me attracted to him even though ya, everyone was commenting on his looks. Ahem haha. I believe in chemistry ba... and he was nice. It was the first time it felt like a relationship cos we actually went out (lol)... cos I never did go out with Sam or Soon Kwang alone before.
I forgot but I think it started on 3.8 women's day. And up till June 20somthing that year, it was all fine... nothing fantastic but pleasant. I remember I went on a Thailand trip with my family and when I came back, he initiated a breakup through sms. Yes, how conveniently I was a frontier victim of the sms-breakup. Of cos I couldn't get to terms with it as it had came as a shock. But that was nothing I could do, cos yes I couldn't care less for my esteem and asked why, was there another girl, was the problem with me. So when sch reopened and the O level orals and prelims etc... I just couldn't keep up. I even had to sms him to wear tie for oral. Omg right, where the hell did my 矜持 go to?
That was a time when "emo" was not known, haha but I was emo. And I was really fortunate to have with me the entire founder-bp gang and more. Somehow I made myself numb to everything... and hence I couldn't see any other decent guys. Oops. I despise girls getting hooked on thier rebound or even patching up after breaking. I knew I simply had to pick myself up. Everyone was counting on me to act like a big sis... haha who knows maybe that's why I had such an attitude problem.
The higher you climb, the heavier you fall. The higher the expectations, the more hurt you get. The reason why I disclosed this now was perhaps I no longer had to protect myself. Or maybe I just wanna remind myself how strong I used to be. We always tend to put in our everything when we believe and trust in someone/something, and we never stop to think that it may hurt us because we wanna believe. I can feel that being in a comfortable relationship with Beng Hock has made me believe again in fairy tales and happily ever after. I still believe that everyone is entitled to his/her happiness. However, I believe in taking baby steps now :) Hence, I wanna wish happiness to all my dearest friends, you know who you are. Gera, Hx, Qf, Yx, Kt, Bong, Mg, Wm, Ty and all sclub11 members.
Ps: this post is more intended for my sec sch friends who knew me back then.
light sticks against the sand
Gera - I hope you don't get hurt this time or again. I never like to hear your sad stories... with jerks or simply the wrong guys. It's not that I don't understand but that I wish some awesome guy just drop from the sky for you. You really deserve someone who loves you and won't make you tired. Which girl doesn't want to be pampered right? I know you were/are upset with yourself for always letting unhappy things happen to you, and you said it you're looking for stability now. So if I didn't have the courage to say to you, I'll say now that don't be with the "guy". Ask yourself if he's someone you can depend on, or that you are gonna try again. Is he someone worth trying out with, and are you or can you keep up with his life or lifestyle or friends as your status progress... and when more expectations come in.
Xin - At least you know what you want, however and I believe so Aquarius also quite perfectionist. It's not easy to look for the one guy who fits all your criteria leh. Want shuai, want to play bball or sporty, want gentlemen but cannot MCP, want mr.nice guy but only to you. Haha... sounds perfect? Yea I know. I'm a half Aquarius afterall... you hear ppl say "mia hiam buay pai" hor not for nothing leh. But if you really see a guy you interested, must take action ok. hint hint...
xin & gera - so silly & so adorable!
Fen - I really wanna compliment and congratulate you. Do you know that you have become a much better person le? I'm not a good person with words hence I can only write or type. You also another one who keeps things to yourself and act like you don't care a damn. Last time Yixian and I used to think you were harsh to your mummy, but last night it was really heartwarming to hear about you being such a support to parents le. At least they have you, if not i'm sure they would have felt really hopeless. Alot of things like what Ah Bong said, things the previous gen didn't do good enough (ie. our parents) we'll learn not to repeat cos we want our next gen to lead better lives ah. I'm also proud of you that you have an aim, no matter what it is becos that will really push you forward de. Cos when I met Szehua yesterday, she was also telling me about this.
Xian - Well, hai hao la ni wo ying gai mei se me ke yi jiang de. Bu guo ni hao xiang ye shi ling yi ge xi huan xiang hen duo de. If possible, follow your feelings lor. Don't know whether half a year's time I'll still be nuahing lor. So bad... if not let's just start our own tuition team lah. Oh but maybe you can intro me some tutees. Cos I've only that one now.

So we went to 24hrs coffeeshop haha and yep, we ate, we chatted, we really were still like kids. Talking about country story, restaurant city, mousehunt and ghost trappers. We will always be kids one right, whenever we come together haha. And of cos yixian and I were grumbling alot of the unresolved issues regarding centre. The guys were great listeners and gave advices too... I think I love hanging around longtime friends =)
We should be meeting up again on the 25th. Hmmm, cannot trust the guys to plan one. I know cos they busy with school and stuffs, but yixian and I also not zuobo one leh. See how la, but the plan should be playing with sparkers and lanterns and eating mooncakes and drinking tea? lol... yes, it's mid-autumn festival. Good for gatherings and hanging together.
yixian and I wanted to inform Mrs Chiam we would be leaving around end-October tuesday itself. But she was having meeting with people from HQ and she was busy with so many paper work and stuffs. Although we could understand her circumstance, we were "dying" to voice our intentions cos we feel that the longer we drag, the harder it is for us to leave cos it would be more difficult for them to find new staffs or helpers.
This problem was finally (I would say) settled yesterday. We finally got the chance to talk to her and at least end-October would be a good time to leave cos the p6s would have finished their psle and hopefully the exams for the p5s. The last psle paper would be on the 12th. So I would have around 2 weeks to hang around the centre, maybe helping with the other levels ba.
Recently the boys were always
Tomorrow night I'm going JB with sc11 to Jingxi's house, like chalet like that. Not sure coming back on sunday night or monday morning yet but think I can really enjoy now cos one load off my mind. Activities not planned properly yet but should include paintball, bbq, ktv, shopping etc. Yea~~ looking forward to havoc!!
I promised the boys bubble gums haha... of cos if I can, I will get them some snacks too. Last remaining 3 weeks or so for some of them. Shivam and Eugene almost won't be back after the last paper, the rest would be staying to end-Oct only also. So I gotta tell them must come back to take pics with me haha.
Which means I gotta being my camera to centre to take pics with them soon... and my fuji instax too, cos I specially bought Herbie cars films just for the boys. And I have disney princesses and charmmy kitty ones for the younger girls. Think yixian, we can start buying and storing snacks for the children in the next few weeks so won't have alot to bring on the last week/day, and anyway children's day coming mah so let them enjoy lor. But cannot slack also lah.
Sounds a bit sad hor Ms Lim?

So we decided to go to its competitor Food Culture to try luck. Ok there's carrot cake but finished selling liao so we ordered char kuay tiao which tasted weird cos hahal? I think so lor... like food from Banquet also got a funny taste one. And we had those desserts like those ice kachang type one... ok it's really ages since I've eaten that kinda (traditional) desserts lor. But I prefer pulut hitam and the likes, and I remember I used to eat with gera desserts at the ol' Food Junction during sec sch days after school haha.
So we chatted lor... about travelling. Seems Kangtai wanna go backpacking in Taiwan but Yixian just went there in May. Bong and I suggested maybe Vietnam or Cambodia for backpacking... I like this idea a lot. Everyone has different reasons for travelling; some more sightseeing, some for shopping while others go for the food. I wanna experience a little of the lives other people have and more importantly to feel the culture, I don't wanna just go and come back in a short span. Which is why going to Korea to live is one of my goals to achieve. But before this, I guess I need to go master the language first.
We sat till the place gotta close and we decided to go the 24 hrs coffeeshop behind bus interchange for last round. We ate tou huay, chee chong fun and zwee kuay. Seriously I don't know how to hanyu pinyin the words lah... Super full by the time we finished. But very much accomplished. And guess what!? We saw Vincent Lee dabaoing food. Geez, so familiar yet so awkward to talk to him... like hmm no topics like that. But can really feel that he has learned how to relax as compared to when he was younger. Well, I don't have anything else to say cos I don't wanna think haha.
Ok and after that we settled the next gathering lor, so as to keep the rule of meeting at least once a month, but more if possible. Badminton two tuesdays from now and something else on friday 25 sep.
The only 2 pics taken haha... and we are not in them! I love zwee kuay.

We three girls had the same Chicken Cheese something set meal. $14.90 includes chawamushi, miso soup, soft shell crab, two slices of watermelon which filled our entire stomachs and right up to our chests lor. Serious leh haha. Plus charges etc ~ $17 so quite worth it.
We walked around a little after that; Ming Gang bought Mochi at 6 for $11 and I bought a top coat nail polish together with Qiaofen's purchases using her member's discount at The Face Shop. $2.20 yea!
Desserts was at Gelare. Waffle + 1 scoop of cookies & cream + 1 scoop of macademia nuts. Nice~ totally agree that Gelare's ice cream is the best. We only started taking some pictures at Gelare...
Qiaofen and Yixian after sitting down at Gelare.
Qiaofen was complaining why the Mochi so hard... well because Ming Gang didn't look at the "instructions" lor. Haha... So while waiting for our waffle, they were reading 我报.
The waffle design on the wall vs our waffle.
Ming Gang and Wee Meng, the *** partners. Oops
Camera-shy. But he finally managed a charming smile... the bag is his present.
Ah meng and his dreamy eyes. Better, but he didn't smile and the second photo a bit blur.
The only group photo we took.
Strength: 5 out of 8.
MIA: Ah Bong, Kangtai, Tsuen Yung.
Lastly, the girls must take photos together. Pretties~
