BORED! BORED! BORED!!!

Ahhhh... Save me pleaseeeeee...

Another 2 hours to closing and I"m all alone. Wanted to buy magazine to read, but I forgot.

Now all that's left to accompany me is a bar of Hershey's Cookies & Cream Chocolate which Lyna bought just now cause she was too bored and feeling hungry. Hahaha...

Hmm... Ohh that reminds me, I was too bored so I actually drew a portrait using PAINT.

Its kinda amaturish though... But what to do? I'm only able to draw using whatever pathetic tools PAINT offers.

Last night... Went St James' with Gin + Kurt & Ch. Js was supposed to go, but due to unforseen circumstances, she didn't go ahead with us.

I lost pretty badly at the game of 5-10. But what to do? I was playing solo while the 2 of them were playing tag team. Forfeit was to drink beer.
The mug was emptied pretty quick.

Something damn wrong lah. Normally I can drink 1 pint of Hoegaarden and I'm still super sober.
Eg., just last night went ICB, drank 1 pint and still kope some of Ch's Stella, yet I was still able to walk straight and was very normal.

Perhaps working, then go drinking, then next morning go work and after that go drinking again just equates to lack of sleep and quite tired .

So don't need to say also know lah...
Lack of sleep + boredom from work + alcohol being consumed faster than you can recite your name 100 times = HIGH!!

Won't say that I was drunk cause I was still aware of what was going on around me.
No, I didn't puke.
Just that my head felt damn damn heavy!

I just wanted to lie down and sleep...
But Ch didn't let me. Kept on saying I shouldn't lie down blah blah blah...

Couldn't dance much due to space constrains unless you would like to term our movements as wriggling around?
People kept wanting to cut through and it was rather irritating.

Suggested to go for prata!
Getting out of there for some fresh air was really helpful. I felt so much better and my head wasn't feeling that heavy anymore.

Hmm... Yup yup, so we've explored most of the rooms in St James'. Just left a few more lah...

Perhaps next time...

Cabbed home after that and went to sleep...
For only bout 2 hours!
Woke up superb early cause I had to attend mass.

Can't go for a later time slot cause I'm schedule to work at noon.
Some irritating reason that I've never worked morning shift in Vivo before so I won't know what to do blah blah blahh...
Which is of course, total bullshit lah...
Come on lor... Which outlet I was't given an am shift not long after I start at the outlet without anyone to guide me? All I got was instructions the day before on what are the things to do and where to find the cleaning stuff.

Haiyah... Whatever lah... I hate 'it'. Chao tweety...
Anyway, I'm damn tired now lah... 2 hours of sleep, and today I have to do OT for 2 hours...

-Digress-

Its 8.52pm lo...
Still got another hour to go!
Shall blog bout thursday..

Conz wanted to treat me to a meal for my birthday. I know, I know, my bday was like way back in december lah...

Just that we're too busy or the time wasn't really right, So we've been postponing and postponing till now!
She asked whether I wanted to go Pasta Cafe or Royal Copenhagen.
Pasta Cafe was the safer option lah... She didn't want to ruin the treat should the food turn out not up to standard. Hahaha...

But then Royal Copenhagen is known for using classy cutlery and china ware. Seems quite atas.
Obviously I chose that lah... Duhhh...
Hahahaa...

To totally get into the tai tai mood, we even went for the high tea.
I was busy snapping pics of each dish as they were served.

Overall, the food was alright... but won't say the best lah...
Ambience and service was good..

See pics...

Her open sandwich


My fish chowder


My salmon fillet


My cake that she's eyeing on...


Her cakes


Her drink & other condiments.

After our high tea, shopped around a bit before we went our seperate ways.

Went to Bishan to get some good stuff. Hee hee...

Ch insisted on meeting me cause he was hungry.

It was raining super heavily that my legs all wet, shoes all soaked. I went to buy 2 pairs of slippers.
1st pair normal price, 2nd pair at 10bucks... Cannot resist one you know...

Instead of going to eat immediately, we went to play pool at Bugis.
I suck at pool lor! My aiming is like shit. I break the balls like I've not eaten in a year and lack energy.
The good thing bout playing with Ch is that winning isn't everything. So I don't really get trashed, then not so demoralizing... Hahaha...
Its a learning and training process.

After that went to eat dinner/supper with Jav. That idiot damn jian... Always make 2 of us go wherever he is to meet him. Then after meeting, was quite late already. I wanted to have prata! But he doesn't want to walk there..

On wednesday, went to watch 251 at the Esplanade. Its a local production. Yogs managed to get extra tix for me.. But she didn't go in the end. =(
Went with Ch.
Anyway, its my first time I'm actually attending a play lor! Feeling a bit sua ku. Hahaha...
Very interesting play. Its about the life of Anabelle Chong, the local porn star. They actually gave out envelopes as door gifts and the content was a condom... Hahaha...

Ohh my my, its 9.30pm!!!

Just nice, I've also finished my Hershey's.

Shall end off here then. I can take my own sweet time to pack up.

Rapture's Gig

Had my off day yesterday, so I went up to Godma's place to help her take some pictures. Play with Maxie then went for dinner at Crystal Jade.

2 of us, ordered quite a lot of stuff I must say! Really very full after that lor.

Supposed to meet Ch bout 8pm but was still halfway through dinner only. So had to delay... Hahaha...

Anyway, went to collect my thumb drive at work place, cause silly me forgot to bring it home.

Walk to MSQ to waste time cause we didn't want to go Zouk so early.

While I was buying water, he asked if I brought my IC. Punk-ed him when I said I didn't bring cause I knew he so badly wanted to go Zouk. The Rapture were having a live performance and he was so looking forward to watch it. Hahahaa!!!
Left him in a dilemma whether to skip the gig and accompany me elsewhere, or go in just for the gig and leave me outside for that one hour then quickly come out after that, or try to find ways to go in where they won't check id.

He was about to call some of his friends to probably let me get in somehow lah. But I didn't want the prank to go too far and trouble so many people, so I suggested we just go there and try. If really can't go in, I'll just sit at the bar outside alone for that hour and wait.

But when we went there, they actually didn't check cause we went in via different entrance. Wasn't so strict. He was damn happy. But I wasn't cause I couldn't continue my prank. Damn...
But never mind, at least I made him kan cheong for almost an hour. Heh heh...
I'm sadistic.

Anyway, some pics taken at the gig...

The band...


Member's individual shots






A nice rock gig shot...


The crowd leaving to go for the after party at Velvet's side.


Just a random pic of the lights

No tripod, just steady hands! Hee hee...

Anyway, I spent most of the time playing with my camera settings trying to find the right one for this kind of night shot. By the time I got it, the gig was already about to end.
Bahhh...
I should practice more night shots.

Hooked For Dinner

Last night, celebrated daddy's birthday at


I can't remember the names of the dishes la.
They are rather long.
Just see pictures will do.

Some salmon with their special sauce or something like that.


Breaded whole snapper


Steam fish with linguine


Fresh salmon which you can choose how cooked you want it to be.
30%? 50%? 80%?
This is 50%... I must say, its not bad! Not very fishy.


Shark in curry served with rice and potato.


The only thing was that our appetizer came after all the mains were served to our table.
Hahaha...
We ordered two. I didn't take picture of the jumbo wings.
But I still like ICB's wings. Na na na~

This is what they call a super vege-motion. Hahahaa..


The food taste is quite good also.
Dish presentation is also much nicer, more vibrant.
Cost less than 80bucks for 5 people. I must say, its cheaper than the usual fish places like Fish & Co or Manhatten Fish Market.

The only setback, its so far away from my place. I don't think they have other branches.
Ohh well...

The birthday cake followed. Joe & Yogs bought something different from the usual cakes normally expected at birthday parties. Not the chocolate, or creamy kind. They bought pandan kaya cake. The pandan layer was very light. The kaya layer was like harden jello. Quite yummy.

On the way back, I saw a fire fly!! Ooo... So pretty lah. The lime green colour. Its so nice, I couldn't bear to chase it away. Just let it fly around me.

Damn army boys leh... They totally spoil the high feeling after seeing a fire fly.
2 classic examples...

Me: Oooo... I saw a fire fly in the wild leh!!! So prettyyyy!!!
Joe: I see it every time I go outfield lor.
-___-

Me: Yada yada yada I saw a fire fly just now!
Friend: Ohhh reaallyy... Then did you catch it?
Me: No.. Hands full, no bottle around. How to catch?
Friend: Ohh so sad.. You know last time when I was outfield, I always see them lor.
-__-
Friend: I ever catch and bring home to release in my room for 2 days.
Me: Sadist...! Did they die?
Friend: No... I went to release them after that.

Lesson learnt. Never share wild life encounters with army boys...
They make you seem damn sua ku.

CNY Eve

Its Lunar New Year Eve!

Last night went ICB. We didn't even have to say what we wanted. It was just confirmed with us and I only added the wan ton cause had craving for some yummy crab sauce. Hahaha... Yehh... Chilli crab the other day wasn't exactly satisfying mah.

Anyway, today there's only one shift. I don't know whats up with the roster lah... Store only opens 7.5 hours but there are 3 full timers and 1 part timer. As if we'll get damn busy like that.

I brought my digi cam down and took some pics with fellow colleagues and friends from other brand's before store opened.

Ohhh.. Reunion dinner after that. I got to try driving around the estate. Well... Not familiar with the vehicle plus roads were narrow.

Dinner was super filling. Its lots of food leh! My gosh!

Anyway, after dinner's activity.

Just chilling around. =)

BB's CNY Reunion Dinner

Was held at Grand Corpthone last night.

Worked morning and left with LM staff. The stupid security gave them damn a lot of trouble. So we were kinda rushing to the taxi stand. My digi's batt died. So timely... I had to go get new ones.
Walked past CH who was day dreaming way.

Me: Psssstt!
CH looked up... 2 seconds later (thinking it was a customer): Hi...
CH 3 seconds later: Ehh? Babe!! Couldn't recognize you lah. You look so different!
Muahaha... Reaction damn bloody slow.

Anyway, the taxi driver also damn screwed up. He drove us the wrong way, heading to a different hotel and still can say that he was right and we said wrongly. Right... 3 people heard what venue Val specifically said and how can all hear wrongly?

Dinner was rather nice. First up was lou hei.
Its a seriously messy dish. Hahaa...

The mess out of the dish, accumulated to about one plate.

CP's current team

Cheers to good sales. Hahaha... =)

2 from ISC, 2 from CP


Me and Jav.


Cin babe...

Miss working with her..

There are actually more pics taken during the dinner but I don't think I'll be posting it up.

But the post dinner activity was clubbing.

Group pic!

Uber onz people who went clubbing despite knowing 7 of us had to be back at the hotel for training the next day at 9am, some worked morning shift.

Me & Wy

We only wanted to act cute and take pic. But how come suddenly so many fingers came poking us? Tsk tsk...


The two good friends who are so full of rubbish and me.

Me & Jer, the super onz party babe.


Lyna and me, I love her nose. So sharp and defined. Natural one lor..


Bernie and moi


Me & Angie


Ohh and since its the we're approaching the year of the pig, I insisted that all must make a piggy face and snap a shot.




Happy New Year in advanced, friends!

High Tea

Dental in the morning... Dentist said I have to wear braces for another 3-6 months.
Damn long leh!
Color for the month, orange and red. Chinese New Year mah. HAHAHAA... =D

Spent the afternoon with Yh. We had high tea at Swissotel's Lobby Court. Extracted from her blog. She describes it nicely.
we had a triple-tiered filled with little dainty eats & a pretty bowlful of really big & crunchy nuts. i think i ate too much; the last time i checked the nuts jar, it reduced by three quarts. but macadamia is happy food ! caught up with the very busy workaholic who’s actually a blonde trapped in a chinese body.

Right... I'm the busy blonde workaholic trapped in chinese body. Normally people would just deduce that I grew up eating potatoes. She went one step further to establish the link with my original roots of being blonde.
Thanks babe, for sorting out my identity crisis. =)

Anyway, pics taken from high tea...
First came the tea...


Then came the dainty eats...


After which we took our pictures.
At first we were feeling normal...


Then we tried to act cute...


Violence came after...


Aiyah... To sum it up, here's the equation...

Go figure. =P


Godma made popiah for dinner, was supposed to go up and eat. I kinda missed my stop, thus deriving the blonde identity crisis. Dinner was nice!

Received another belated bday present, which was the bag I ordered online.
Thanks for the pressie Gin. =)

Retail Therapy

Besides spending time finding airlines and hotels to book. Went to the bank to open account so that I can get a debit card which can collect points to redeem for stuff.

Last night already did some shopping and actually intended to clear and clean my room today la. So in the end, wasted lots of time in the afternoon already, I decided to postpone cleaning to next off day. Then I went shopping again. Bought dinner and came home to eat.

Then dad asked me to go draw money to pay for the air tickets. I went back to the mall again. Along the route from one bank to the other, I was distracted. I went into the shoe shop. So many nice designs but I only liked a few pairs. Couldn't decide which pair to buy.

Proven theory: "Don't leave me to shop alone!"

I'm not afraid of the loneliness cause I'll be busy trying on stuff and deciding if its nice or not. Neither am I afraid that there isn't a friend to give me an honest opinion on the stuff cause I am able to depend on my own judgement.
I'm only afraid of... overspending. Hahahaa...
Friend(s) are there to either reaffirm or condemn the stuff. They are also there so that the shopping time is like reduced cause it won't be just the me-myself-and-I kinda shopping anymore.

Ok so anyway, I bought erm... erm... *cough* four *cough* pairs of shoes only la. But they're all for work.
So all black. =)


The new pairs to add to my collection are those on the second shelf from the bottom. They are very lovely.
I don't really have that much choices of footwear for use during my off days leh. But never mind la. I work more than I'm off anyway.
Heh heh... Now I can wear a different shoe everyday for the whole week and still have one spare to rotate.
=))

Which should I wear tomorrow?

Happy New Year

Well... Resolution for 2007?

(1) Not to be so blur.
(2) Try to accomplish (1) so that I won't have to bring it forward to 2008's resolution.

I'll just keep it to 2 la... Short and simple. =)

Ahh... Yes!
(3) Keep things short and sweet, simple and direct. Chop chop straight to the point.

Whoops... I just increased my resolutions to 3. Haha..
Ok. STOP!

The countdown party last night? It was supposed to be 5 people counting down. Me, Cf, Jet, Vid & Ym.
We went to buy stuff to fill my fridge.

Heh... Seems a lot?
Well there are actually one more pint of Haagen Dazs, one more tub of Wall's Ice cream, another box of Arctic Roll all hidden behind.

Ohh thats just the cold stuff... Still got the snacks???

.

. .

. . .

. . . .

. . . . .

. . . . . .


HAHAHAHAA!!!
A lot leh!!! As if we're feeding a whole big party crowd.

Anyway, when it was time to countdown, it was only me, cf & vid. The other 2? Stuck don't know where.

Guess we're all getting old. Feeling old. All no party mood. We were like just busy baking some of the stuff to eat.

By the time they came, we've already counted down. =(

But still, at least they came, can help eat the food.
We had a semi movie marathon. Watched "Connie & Carla" & "Freaky Friday".
Both of which I don't really get the entire storyline. I'm not dumb la... Just that I was busy walking around, helping to bake stuff and catch lizard. Haha... Ya.. bro called me from my room to tell me that a lizard had intruded my territory.

They left before dawn.

But we didn't finish all the food we bought.

Didn't exactly take much photos though.


Happy new year Peeps!
