Beast's comeback performance was today!! ^^ It's been such a long time since i've seen them on stage. AND IT WAS AMAZINGGG!! I love the feet dance~ it looks quite simple but it's actually really hard to do (yea i confess.. i tried learning it at home HAHAHAHA :/) And the boys improved alot! I really like fiction, it's quite different from their previous title songs in a good way :) I think the song grows on you the more you listen to it.
They sound and look so good right!! <3 And yesss, they're coming back to singapore again on 2 july! I think it's their 5th time here already? Kekeke the organisers said they'll try to add in more songs/ activities for the fanmeet so hopefully that comes true :)

Went for my 3rd driving lesson today! I think i suck at driving :( Can't really turn properlyyy..although i did go out onto the public road today (FINALLY) :) was quite fun hehehe had to look out for so many things though and i got quite confused sometimes. I guess practice makes perfect so i must try to go for the lessons more consistently to get used to the driving. The instructor recommended 3 to 4 lessons per week :O Dont think i'll be able to keep up to the schedule cause of work! Soo this means i must really chiong lessons once work ends :) 
 
Im thinking of giving math/ science tuition soon! Maybe around mid-june.. should i?

Was camping at the bbdc website on friday night hoping to get a slot for saturday~ it was really last minute so i thought it would be impossible haha just wanted to try my luck! but suprisingly i really got a slot for sat afternoon ^^ happy me! Didn't do much though.. the instructor just asked me to go round and round the circuit again like the first lesson~ im still not too good at turning leh sianzz.

I'm back! Been too lazy to blog these few weekssss

(This is really belated but it's a chapter of my life I would want to remember in the future so here goes hehehe) I kind of miss working in IRAS. I think I only realised how nice the environment was after I left ): I miss my batch & teammates especially!! They were the best colleagues you could ever wish for :D The good thing about working in IRAS was they hired a lot of temp staff and since everyone was about the same age, we got to bond really quickly. Made so many good friends over the past 3 months and they will always be an important part of my life <3 (heehee times like this when I'm thankful for twitter/facebook so we're still updated on each other's lives after quitting from IRAS) Hopefully I'll get to meet up with them soon~ Miss everyone sooo much (AND I MISS MY WEEKLY/ DAILY GONG CHA HAHAHAHA)

I've been working at the new office with anita and jane for the past 2 weeks! Work's actually quite tiring nowadays.. I always feel so sleepy (especially after lunch) hehe although it's abit boring, i love working with my friends! I really think i will die of boredom if they're not there (: So yay to the lame jokes woohoo. OH.. but I think I gained some weight after I started working there eh seriously!!!! T.T HAHA HEALTHY DIET MUST START SOON (Y)

Mother's day celebration last sunday




 
Celebrated this year's mother's day with kaima at tung lok seafood! Hehehe i LOVE the dessert over there (: Ther previous time we were here we had their yam paste with mango i think which was SO GOOD!! ^^ The yam paste was smooth and creamy but not too sweet at the same time (Y) This time round, we had their mango sago dessert and I LOVED IT TOOO (: Maybe I just have a sweet tooth hahaha ahh talking about it now makes me feel like having the dessert again yum yum!!

Had dinner with the class girls last night <3 Finally we had a proper meet up with all 7 of us present hahaha havent hung out like that in a group for months and it was nice to see everyone together again. We ate at food for thought! Ta Jane and I  wanted to try out the place since we havent eaten there before~ I liked the layout of the restaurant - very homely and simple. The waiter that served us was so cute hahaha he was SUPER friendly and kept smiling/laughing at us all the time! 
 
I think I ordered the wrong dish though :( Had the shitake and button mushroom risotto.. which wasnt delicious but wasnt too bad either HAHAHA JANE'S PUN WAS THE BEST!!! SHE SAID IT TASTED "FUNGI" (FUNKY) GET IT? HAHAHAHHAHA I really think it's super funny~ I'm still laughing at it after one day lol
 
I would definitely recommend the XL curry chicken! Vic ordered that and it was super nice :D REALLY XL SIZE AND VERY CRISPY & YUMMY!!! 
 
After that, we walked around bugis for a bit, hung out at starbucks to talk then left for home. Was so tired when I reached home! Twas a good day though :')
 
 
(PS Sorry this post is so incoherent and messy!)

11th-Apr-2011 10:21 pm - Enchanted
It's been quite a long time since i last posted so this is gonna be quite a long and picture-y post!! Hehehe last week was such an eventful weeeek (:

Sunday - Buffet brunch with cheo and ruyee at melt the world cafe (Y) We were super on time for the buffet and ate from 11.30am to 3.15pm HAHAHA THERE WAS SO MUCH GOOD FOOD!!! We were literally so full that we couldnt walk straight after that haha i havent eaten that much in agesss~ at first we thought the "fullness" would last us for at least until the next day but it didnt :( we started to feel hungry by 6pm!




oysters!! hahaha ry and i kept attacking the oysters when they replenished it :D


this was really good! eggs benedict :) but they ran out so quickly so i only managed to take this pic of the plate looking half empty


BEST DESSERT OF THE LOT!! When i first tasted this choco pudding, it was like *ding ding ding* heavenly!!! HAHAHAHA SERIOUSLY YUMMY :D
 


 

All in all, i think the buffet was really worth it (especially with the discount we got from using cheo's mum's card hehehe) :D We're thinking of going for another buffet the next month but it may get postponed if we dont earn enough $$$ this month hahaha so this month i shall try to be on time for work so that my pay wont get deducted and i can eat more good fooood :')

Monday was ben's belated birthday celebration~ Went to buy his card over the weekend while loy bought the cake :D We surprised ben in the pantry heehee it was a success since he didnt suspect anything :p yay!!!
 
hehehe although they always bully me, i still love my team :') will miss them so much when we end work! Time flies~ Can you believe we've already been working together for 3 months already? Hehe seeing my colleagues at work just makes my day much better and they make me smile even if i get frustrating tps (: 

Wednesday was meet up day!! Yunhan and meenal came to meet up with us for lunch (:


team 8 lunch with our sup!! <3 hehe our sup is jingting (the one on the far left) she looks very young right!! I think she's one of the nicest sups around! :)



us again @ wee nam kee! hahaha we've been meeting up regularly every wed for the past few weeks even though a few of us already left iras~


haha this was the pioneer batch of teamsies before the newer temp staff joined us over the next few months!! <3 still rmb when we first started to man the helpline, we were all so flustered and didnt dare to manual in because we thought there would be a rush of calls! Miss those days~
 
Friday - Andre had a fall and he is now on crutches for 2 weekssss (baika!) so i had to go pick him up from novena medical centre after work!  At first i was quite worried because of the way my mum described his injury.. but when i saw him he seemed alright hahaha my mum always exaggerate (!!!) so not to worry, he's fine (just that he has to use crutches for a while) 
 
While waiting for mervyn to come pick us up, we decided to.. CAMWHORE HEHEHEHE took many many photos with rachel's lemeleme app on her iphone (: 
 

 
:/ sad face because he's injured!! 
 

 
Aunty howww :p
 

We had such a hard time trying to sync our expressions with the camera's timing!! Finally got the hang of it towards the end (kinda) hehehe
 
 
 
Met up with jane wx yy and tata on saturday for lunch at bugis then ktv @ teoheng at night!! (: Hehe teoheng ktv is SUPER CHEAP :D $9 each for 3 hrs of singing!! That's almost 1/4 the price at kbox eh (: (Y) it's always nice to meet up with the jc clique everytime <3 wish the 7 of us could meet up together again soon (so far it's been hard to accomodate everyone's schedules because of work and stuff but i really miss hanging out together)
 
OH AND I HAVE GOOD NEWS!!!

i know im a bit slow but i've been stuck on taylor swift's enchanted for the past few days! 
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
This night is flawless, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, dancing around all alone
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you

This is me praying that this was the very first page
Not where the story line ends
My thoughts will echo your name until I see you again
These are the words I held back as I was leaving too soon
I was enchanted to meet you
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you
26th-Mar-2011 10:05 pm - the notebook




Finally watched the notebook!!  Haha yes it was out in 2004 but i just watched it :/ IT WAS  SO  GOOD~  I 'm going to put it on my fav movies list hehehe :D  Rating:  10/10 (Y)

So in love with ryan gosling~  And the ending was so touching.. i actually teared up while watching (had to quickly wipe off my tears just in case someone came into the room suddenly hahahaha) 



Ryan gosling and rachel mcadams are so suited for each other (:  So sad they broke up though!!  I  was looking through youtube videos for interviews/talkshows with them and i came across the mtv best kiss award. You guys should really watch it (:  It's so sweet!!  Love the 2 of them together~



Hehe i shall embed it here!!!  
26th-Mar-2011 09:53 pm - #prayforjapan
 

Watching clips/photos about the japan earthquake just breaks my heart. Just 2 days ago, while i was having my dinner, i saw a clip about the ruins in japan right now.. and i just wished i could do something for the people over there now. 

It's so sad~ I dont know what i would do if i happened to be over in japan at that time. I'll probably be too shocked to do anything. Last week, over dinner with the girls, we discussed if the world would really end in 2012 because there just seems to be so many natural disasters occurring in recent years. It seems so true.. sigh i get so scared when i think about it )': There's still so many things i want to experience in the future!! 

In the meantime, let's all pray for japan, pray that they will recover from all this soon and let's do whatever we can to help them (:
