Frolicking in Zouk.
Another weekend, another night of decadence. Met up with some of my best girls for a little bit of ZOUK!
Headed to the Collab event for a while first. Got some surprise when we were presented with a bag of doorgifts! And i love love them. Pretty eyeshadow, mascara, and the cutest mini compact.
WHEE! Phuturing! We figured that dancing at the front bar is the best: spacious, no squeezing around, and most importantly, no weird,
groping hands.
Havent seen my lovelies for quite some time! So having the most fun when we get to meet up is absolutely necessary!
The happiest girl of the day who saw her *cough*ex-crush*cough*. Love you babe. =)
Small star struck moment when we saw Jaycee Chan and Kennysia. Damn, really wanted to tell that Mr. Sia that he is damn funny and I LOVE his blog! Tried lemon drops too, which is reeeally nice. Vodka shot in a sugar-rimmed glass and lemon. YUM.
Uneventful, yet happening night. Sigh, it'll be 3 weeks before another night like this! Bah. Exams suck.

After school.
15th Jan 2008My urgent need to travel to town is finally accomplished with the company of bong dearest! It was so late after school that I was dead beat and probably uttering rubbish the whole time. I realise I get dreamy (read: blurred) eyesight so recently that I'm kinda used to squinting at the projector or whiteboard. Damn, I really must sleep more. At least reserve my weekends for sleep and tutorials and tidying up my room. I miss feeling free.
Humans are contradictory. They want to have what they don't at any point in time.
Shopped and got all the stuff I want pretty quickly. Now i know how shopping with an aim feels. But it takes the pleasure out of shopping! Especially when all the shops are closing due to the late timing. I still prefer to think of shopping as a therapeutic activity. =)
I love the HK cafe's lychee ice blend. But the one I had that day was less than satisfactory. Dang. Disappointed. But then again it beats the new lychee ice blended in coffee bean anytime.
Latest craze: Pokka Oolong tea and wide headbands!

Finally finished a major project of mine. Taking a breather before burying my head into the rest of the 4 ass-ignments I have left. Give me strength, God!
23 Oct 2007
Surprised Yumi at the restaurant! Her birthday is technically today, but usually the organisation of the present giving plus cake cutting is done by her, so when it's her turn, how can we expect her to do sth for herself? I went specially down, trying my best not to give myself away when trying to gauge the time she'll leave the restaurant. All in all, she was damn happy and we all got to eat the faboo blueberry cheesecake Belinda got from Hilton hotel! YUM.
24 Oct 2007Headed down to town to do some shopping with my mummy dearest.
I realised we always camwhore on the bus cause we have nothing else to do. Talk about running in the family. LOL.
Decided to go to the new Fortun ate Restuarant at the International Plaza on a whim to try out their dim sum. Not too bad. I love their herbal jelly, not pictured. haha. But everything is okay okay only. I wanna try better ones! Any takers?
Loot of the day. Love the jacket, which is actually an accidental buy! Chanced upon it my way out of FEP. teehee.

=)
Missed out this collage of all my silly poses that Gene and Essy made me do when I'm entertaining them. It was hilarious and I hope you guys were entertained!
Headed out for dinner with my mummy and bro to celebrate my mummy's bday! Hers was actually only a few days apart from mine. =)
Decided upon Seoul Garden since my mummy said she haven't had it in ages. Big mistake. Think the food looks good? Nah, the variety was pathetic. I felt so cheated! The money could have been much better spent elsewhere mans.
Anyway, I slipped out to get a small cake for my mummy as a surprise. The cake was oomph! Dark chocolate with cherries. YUM.
Got a watch from my bro as my birthday present too! Esprit Aristocrat series. Looks so manly. I like!
And Joyce's present. It was hidden with the rest of e alcohol I brought back so I totally missed it out.
Pretty pink alcohol! Rose flavored, apparently. hohoho. Damn. Too many people know about my secret identity as a alcoholic! *shhhh*
Labels: birthday, food, new
Anyone want to catch R21 movies with me? HEE.
Finally I shall blog about my birthday! It went much smoother than I expected, with major help from my mummy dearest, my bro, Veron, the whole-gin gang and especially Sean! Joyce and Amos too for bringing the necessity: mj table + tiles. Hee. Almost all my close friends turned up! So happy. Heard them saying the food is good. Who's next to call my mummy godmum cause of her faboo food?
Random pictures!
I bought so many balloons, but after the bunch of us finally finish blowing all of them we lost all motivation to tie them up and deco the place. Oops. Plus blur me forgot to get any string to bunch them up in the first place too. Heh. But last piece arrived with some raffia and did one side of the place up in the end. Alwyn! You're sick okay. HAHA.
Cake cutting!
Whole gin gang made me wear this raffia wig thingy they made. I'd much rather a tiara please! The cake cutting session was also delayed cause of the pair of chopsticks, who arrived at 11 p.m., exactly what des told me. -.- Bassy's fault! But then he came though he was sick, so I shall forgive him.
Anyway, the attendance!
I smiled until my face cramped. Luckily we skipped taking photos with each and every individual friend. Or even a camwhore like me will be waving the white flag.
And of course, I took pictures of all my presents. *beams*
Makeup from the Clique. Other than the M.A.C. eyeliner that I requested (which they bought both pencil and liquid for me since they didn't know which was the one I wanted), there was the mascara that yh says is damn good, and the pretty lip gloss. =)
Sean gave me the personalized ezlink card. Requested the photo some time ago and refused to tell me what was it he intended to do with it. I guessed a mug, and yes, that wasn't even close!
Printer from the NTU-ians! I asked for it since last year, and yay! No more last minute rushing to the FAL before lessons to print notes that the profs are so fond of posting up last minute. Rose happily brought the printer to the chalet for me, while saying " Surprise!" Eh bad surprise leh. Hard to carry home mans. But still, thanks! HEE. Most practical and useful present, other than cash, of course.
Guess watch from the angels. =) Love the classy design and it's interesting how you can just detach the links from the watch itself to adjust the length, which means I don't have to go down to the shop to have it fixed.
Collage from Veron, Essy and Eugene, plus Agnes b. pouch from the whole-gin gang. Touched and pleasantly surprised by the collage! That was when I got to know the real reason they stayed over at Eugene's that friday night. So sweet! It's now mounted on my door where I will see it everyday.
Taka vouchers from Jet. I said I wanted money and he really gave me shopping vouchers. Goody! Shopping is my fav activity anyway. And speaking of shopping, various people gave me ang baos too! My aunt, cousin, dad, colleagues and the pair of chopsticks. Bassy and Des gave me the ang bao (Bassy: "Eh, Ji Xiang okay!"), and in true practical fashion, Des asked me, "You are not happy with it? It's money leh." -.- Thus this ends the story of them being the youngest people to give me an ang bao. But yes, I'm happy with it. Shopping! WOO.
Chatted with different groups of friends and I'm happy to see them having fun and enjoying themselves. heh. And I'm plain amused by how my mummy remembers my friends. Like "the one who got poked in the tummy and talks slowly", "the one who is a policeman", "the one who looks damn young", "the one who said I bully them in school". Have fun guessing who they are. haha.

Can't believe it's the term break already. First sems always pass by so much faster. I have to date 1 assignment due immediately after the break, and 4 not long after. But I'm procrastinating. And been heading out instead. Hee.
Kayteevee with Ms k and Meizhen xiang on monday, when I forget to bring my camera and thus no pictures. Steamboat plus shopping with Bong ytd! Wah, I finally saw her. And after seeing the condition of her eye, I totally forgave her for not turning up for my party. Amazed at how she can tolerate the pain and acting like nothing is happening. Ouch okay!! May the swelling cease, amen.

4 more days!
Second time going to SIM today. It's so near my house can. haha. I attempted my best to be late, and yet I reached 5 mins early. That was when I realised I am only 10-15 mins away from the school. :\ So much for taking my own sweet time.
Felt lost and was like looking all around for signs pointing to the cafeteria only to realise there aren't any! Finally made my way to the third floor and found the canteen. Essy and Kenny appeared after some time and tom yam ban mian it is! Reminds me so much of the time I used to have it almost everyday with the equally tom yam crazy bong bong. I miss you bong!
Headed down to Bugis to get party supplies! Metallic ballons plus heart shaped ones plus birthday banners = a happy looking theme. heh. Dinner was at Terra which has surprisingly good fusion food. I thought it's more like a Western food kinda cafe, but their menu is much wider and cheaper compared to many of the other cafes around. Their soup and drinks are good! My passionfruit tea is a must-try. Just sufficient sweetness and the aroma of red tea. I like.
Loot of the day: 3 nail polish, 1 extremely cute pink lanyard, party supplies, 1 dress which is a super good deal, 1 pair of earrings.
Impulse buying can really add up. Thank goodness I steered away from diva. phews.
---
A 3 hour-phone conversation. I am always surprised by the amount of things we can talk about and how the time flies. It was just supposed to be a casual phonecall so that he can take a break. But it just stretched til wee hours. haha. Wonder when the next time will be.

881 yo ar yo.
Caught it with Ms k. Not bad a show, but the "powers" thing was pretty lame. I loved the stupid puns throughout the movie tho. May and Choy were so bitchy omg and their chinese freaking cmi please.
Had lunch at Manhattan fish market before that. Orgasmic battered button mushrooms and i really really love the cream sauce thingaming on top of the prawns in the flaming platter! Can i just order that pretty please?
And so after the movie we decided to head to bugis, my idea. To think it's only a short less than 15 mins bus ride, and we camwhored so much! Crazy me and ms k.
The story was that both of us were so freaking tired after the movie that all shopping was done at lightning speed. I got my black skinnies and top within the first half hour, and accessories were acquired and chosen very very quickly too. The rest of the time was either spent lurking around and spying any airy/colorful/girly tops that i desperately wanna get, or sitting down and having tea and resting. AHAHA.
Usual chilling out with last piece on friday! Was comtemplating for the longest time about where to head to, and I was about to fall asleep seriously, especially with the fatigue of schooling the whole day. My migraine acted up during work and I had to pop panadol, which I absolutely hate. Reliance on medication is a big no-no! Anyway, we do what we are best at when we are aimless:
And it's off to Chinaone! Dearest bong arranged the VIP for us omg. I was shocked, I expected only like a corner or something, but we lucked out and that was the only place available in the whole place. Opened a bottle and drank to our fill, with complimentary wings and fries that were so good we finished them before they had a chance to cool down!
Had such a fun time playing guessing games and the omg hilarious 海带拳. Laughed and screamed and got high without even finishing the bottle.
And lastly, the happening people with their glamorous getup.

Grouchy.
Shopping and more shopping! Rather good buys today: Pretty heels for 9.90 and I finally jumped on the Little Miss tees bandwagon. Bought Little Miss Chatterbox and Little Miss Late, both oh-so-very-true of me.
Tuesdays are gelare waffle days! Haven had one for so long man. Sinful considering it's dinner and super messy. I stained my top with e melted choc overload ice cream that dirtied my hands. Sigh. Clumsy.
Banana plus mocha chip ice cream is a good combi! Shall try that next time. =)
What better place to camwhore than the toilet? Should have went to Hyatt's instead though. It's so much cleaner.
Recent bouts of migraines are making me grumpy. May the gloominess go away soon. Amen.

What do you want?
The last week of holidays! Time sped up on me, how did 3 months pass by so quickly? And I'll b so busy working this week to do anything much. Damn. I must make these remaining 6 days happening somehow.
Photos update! Uploaded the photos and made collages on a whim. I think I shall print some of them out and do up something to prettify my room. It's been too dull and impersonal for too long.
Gloria Jeans on 23rd July, last monday. Headed down to the Raffles City Branch after exploring the shops in Haji Lane for the first time. Had always hung out at the eateries but never ever been into the shops. And omg, what a surpirse! I love the concepts those stores have and there are always little bits of something special in each and every little world. A pity I didnt take any photos there. Should have brought some of those intricate little bits home. Might consider holding my 21st in Pitch Black though. Arty farty. =)
I think this place can be our official hangout, right Essy? Chilling out and chit chatting once in a while, reading some books. Our little piece of peaceful haven. Heh.
Out with Bak gua and Ms K ytd! Love those 2 girls. We're like a bunch of sian char bors that I bet every storekeeper will be happy to get rid of us since we're super loud and crazy. hahaha. We're just too cheery and jovial la. Not to mention talkative and noisy. Teehee.
Got a few items for school, and I wish I had unlimited amounts of money. I need more clothes!
HK cafe for dinner after Bak gua left. The manager is super funny la can. Stupid Ms K requested him to take a photo with me somemore. -.- He was the one which Bong and me crapped with the other time too. Haha. So enthusiastic and nice le.
Kayteevee was the last activity of the day, which left me drained and suffering a splitting headache. I think I'm really getting old, unable to handle late nights as well as last time. Anything less than 7 hours of sleep will almost certainly leave me with a headache of varying magnitudes at the end of the day. Sigh. My sudden sombre mood surprised Ms K somewhat, especially since I was bubbly all day up til that point. haha.
[EDIT] Oh. And we chanced upon an event SHE was having in the function hall of Kbox. Only managed to get a shaky pic due to the curious crowd gathered around the door. To Ms K: Xiaozhu ai wo orh! LOL. [/EDIT]
Nevertheless, I had a great time! More outings like this please, you people who stay in hall!

I'm sucha sucker.
Lunched with des, bassy and his colleague. I wonder why of my 2 years spent in the vicinity, I've never been to ABC market. The food is pretty good, the western that we had was of a generous portion and it's cheap! heh. Can frequent there next time.
Stupid des and bassy, being the only girl at the table doesnt mean that you guys have the license to joke on me okay! bah.Headed to town after that with Essy, and it was her SOS at Fabian's, chilling at Bakerzin and shopping!
OMG at my super act atas pic! haha.
I introduced her to the wonderful heaven that TF is, while getting myself a pretty top at a mere 24 bucks. beams. Got a dress from Daytripper also, damnit, cause I just couldnt resist the cheerfulness of it. New black pumps too, to replace e one that just got itself spoilt, and thus end shopping for the day. I need a new keychain though.
+++
I could feel my lips curling upwards by itself again, and this is not good. It wasnt supposed to be so easy for me to change my mind, and why did it always have to happen when I was determined? But, oh well, thinking about his tone of voice on me still turns my legs into mush. SIGH.

Catching up.
It's been late dinners and chill out sessions at Coffee Club for me these few days. First with Bong, whom I havent caught up with for damn long. hehe. So happy that Life's been so good for you babe. I could literally feel happiness oozing out from you!
Our dinner at HK cafe. The new lychee drink is damn good! Blended lychee with lychee juice and ice. And the beancurd skin with prawn thing was so nice that we ordered another plate of it. Yummy heaven. heh. Plus my newly received batch of jellies. Fruity this time round.
Then it was with Veron. =) Went back to Coffee Club since Swensen's was too crowded. Confessed, admitted and decided on alot. Regrets are really not something to brood on; what you get are only sighs and mind-boggling "what-ifs".
Twice in a row at Coffee Club having Strawberry Garden tea with honey. I think I might just get addicted to that place.
Ytd was lunch at Essential Brew with Essy and Bassy (they rhyme!), shopping in town at Ralph Lauren/Mng/DFS/Borders, and dinner at Arab Street! Tried so hard to get Essy to take some pictures with me, which that vain girl plain refused to since she was in specs. These all are that I took! A measly pile compared to the usual camwhore galore.
The last picture's taken in DFS's Ralph Lauren while Bassy tried on his tops. I like the lighting and the deco of the place. Tons of people speaking in Jap and I amused and entertained Essy by translating. hahaha. Maybe I could work there sometime, after I really got a hang of the language.
More damage courtesy of Mng. Bought the black dress and handbag. The two tunics were tempting but I mustn't shop anymore! I psychoed myself that I feel a burning sensation on my thigh where my pockets are, since they are burning a big hole. *lame* LOL.
Lunch with Essy later, reccee at Chinatown and maybe a movie after. I'm out!

Last Update...
...before I send my lappy for servicing and I wont be able to appear in the virtual world for quite some time. :(
Life after exams has been fun so far, although I felt a sense of loss when it finally ended. No more camping in the library, no more panicking over the last few chapters before a paper, no more "die! I haven revised last year's paper!". But still, a sense of relief all around, so that's good. =)
Went out with bong last sunday! Planned to shop but there wasnt enough time, so we just had lunch at the HK cafe, as usual, and bought some stuff from future state, where Bong reign as the queen of lightning shopping (again), afterwhich she had to rush down for her training.
Camwhoring on the cab! I wanted to find my best angle, and bong needed the toilet. LOL.
Was supposed to go kayteevee after her training, but her training dragged til 10 plus, so we stayed for the live band instead. Alfie was gooooddddd. But we still want to listen to "yellow"!
Was at Great World City with my parents. Bought this blue dress at Zara. Pretty pretty.
I love e prints on e tube!
Met up Zhi'en after a long long time. Updated her abt the drama in my life. I'm so happy we are still so in sync and close after so long. 15 years, baby! haha. Lifelong friend for sure!
We settled down at the Full House cafe after walking around, as I needed my caffeine kick really badly. Their Kopi O proved to be damn power, since it kept me awake for 6 hours. I couldnt sleep til 4 am this morning! Wonder why there're so many pics of en? I was too busy gobbling down the delicious french toast. Opps.
That's all for now. Hiatus til I get my darling lappy back!
Labels: food, me, new, shopping
Last paper ahead!
So I shall give myself sometime off and finally post e photos that I should have posted a long long time ago.
Lunch with Veron at Miss Clarity! We had set meals that day, with an overwhelming array of desserts! The staff kept thinking that we wanted e bill when we gestured to them, only to find out that we're going to order some more food, again.
Orgasmic chocolate lava with vanilla ice cream and e ultimate valrhona chocloate bar! Woohoo. Shiok. Haha. Kinda regretted ordering main course. Should have gone straight for the dessert instead. Yummilicious! *drools*
My loot from Diva that day. I really must stop buying earrings before I run out of space to keep them! I love the ring. It makes me happy. heh.
The emotional rollercoaster ended e night after that. And dearest bong coaxed me out to have some fun with tango, when I wasted alot of money on bishi bashi, something I will probably be forever hopeless at. We nearly spolit the KOF machine trying to kill each other within the time allocated, while scratching out heads when we glanced over at mr tango, who is dishing out ferocious moves and pressing lightly on his machine. HMM. Had supper at Swenson's, pigged out on delicious black pepper seafood pasta, apple crumble pan and tang yuan. =)
Headed to TCC to chill out with veron e weekend before and updated her on e stuff happening. A listening ear is so hard to find nowadays, yet I have 4! =) A pair on miss bong and a pair on miss veron.
Veron insisted on sitting at the swinging chairs, so we changed seats, and spent the rest of the time making an obvious effort to reach our drinks, cause the stupid chair keep swinging, and it's so far away from the table! Aiyo. But it'll really be rather comfy if people dont actually have to eat, just swinging with the drinks on their hand.
So jaded from studying that one look at my text just generates a yawn from me. Losing all my concentration. Cant wait for the hols!!
