Sentosa beach is THE life!


I was out with the expanded family and makan gang today, to SENTOSA on a rainy day! Wheeeee. I met up with Jon Yeo, HuiTing, Eames and JingYi for brunch at Seah Lim Hawker Centre again, and I had BK-Bah Ku Teh! The soup tasted like those type you put the instant noodle seasoning packet into warm water, it felt like there was alot of MSG. The Horlicks JingYi Lao Bubu ordered for me was superlicious, thick and sweet! Hee hee.

We headed down to Sentosa again, and it was still raining quite heavily. But once we set foot on Sentosa's Beach Station, it stopped miraculously! Wowwww. We took the tram to Siloso Point, and we thought we could find a volleyball court and just start our game. No, we were all wrong and very sad. It was crowded to the max, all the JC students didn't seem to have school. We asked a group of teens who are Year1s in SRJC, whether we could join them in their game. They agreed, and we sure played out pretty badly, maybe because they were slightly more serious. Their time slot was up, and we asked how much they paid for the court, because it was the one that belongs to the hotel. 26 bucks for 2hours, @)#(*@*&#! We felt bad about taking up half their space, so we left, and continued to play ball on our self-drawn court, net-less. Jon Han, Fiona, Huadong and Amanda soon came to find us. We had a hilarious time trying to play frisbee, and those who wanted to suntan tried to tan with the faraway sun whenever we felt the heatwaves from the Sun. At about 5plus, we finally managed to get a court! So we played and Zi-high until 8plus into the night, I got whacked and smacked by incoming balls or swinging arms several times of maybe around 5 times. Once game ended, we finally went to clean up and change out.

We were all complaining about hunger, and we were so tempted at the thought of juicy two piece chicken thighs at KFC! We ran to KFC at Harbour Front once we alighted from the Sentosa Train. Jon Yeo, HuaDong and Eames had the guts to ask an Auntie for KFC coupons from a table, then we got a Family Feast coupon from an Indian couple. The food came, and the four of us who shared the Family Feast, Jon Yeo, JingYi and Huiting; took all the "Big Chickens" like the thighs and breast meat. The rest of our dear friends only managed to get the miserably small chicken wings and drumsticks. Awwwwww. We camwhored a little here and there, but most of it had Fiona's big face. Hahahaha. I had fun :D

:(


I feel like shooting you dead, James.

I'm so not having a good time, I'm just pissed, disheartened at everything I do or see. Because of this "SPECIAL" guy, I just can't get the load off my chest right now.
The freelance photographer employed by Mr Leon Peh for the Year 3s photo-taking this year, is full of shit. He crashed the ceiling on that day and still denies the fact that he did it; he made the director pissed because of his indecisiveness on arranging the people on stage; he takes the pictures with shadows blocking peoples' faces; and right now he's giving me a hell of a time man.

Hello Mr JAMES CHUAN WEE YEO. You are the most unprofessional, stupid, moronic person who produces and provides inferior products. I'm trying to refrain myself from using any vulgarity, BUT FUCK CARE LAH. I'M JUST FUCKING PISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSED. YOU are making life so difficult for me and my president, especially me.
I had all the excel sheets prepared nicely swee swee for him to refer to. The Title (FMB, CEE, REB), class, name sequence of each class if necessary, pictures order accordingly, and I even tallied the number of pictures he should print. I had made it clear in the first few times I talked to him, and even if at the last time we last contacted I did not mention it, it is freaking common sense that every picture should have a title. Guess what he did, he printed out 300 pictures, with 3/4 of them simply being printed straight from the computer without edit, and the other 1/4 were the pictures with the title, name sequence, but no title. There was totally no Ngee Ann badge or whatsoever, and we even showed him last year's sample. Come on man, it's so plainly done that I could have done it myself with no trouble. Call yourself professional, we are having so many problems because of this JAMES guy. FUCK LAH. Still got the cheek to tell us that he does this and is not making enough money. Come on, he actually forgot, the fact that he had to laminate the pictures. OH MY GOSH. WALIAO, PLEASE LAH. We give you 5 bucks per piece for just printing meh, shit you lah. And I so remember right now that I made things very clear to you, and I did mention you have to put the title in every picture, I remember emphasizing to him, "for example Facilities Management for Business". How could it be that I hadn't made it clear to him. He never take class photo before still want to shoot and scold me, and even better, his informal picture got names for each row one, where it's quite impossible, because the groups hurdle together which forms numerous broken rows. He's just unbelievable.


Aside to that, I went out with Weijie the whole day, and he accompanied me to meet that fake professional in the early afternoon. After that we took a bus down to Suntec and we jalan jalan. We played arcade, and I won him in all the games lah! The Mario Kart, the Time Crisis, the basketball hoop one (He doesn't want to admit I'm better), and also all the hand games we played all the way back home.


MARIO KART :DD

main comm at Vivo

I have been out with the same ku ku main comm, to celebrate Gary's birthday in advance.
Myself, Gary, Chervel, Simon, Sharon, Shijie, Sihua, Michelle, Guo An, Xiang Yun, and Junxian.

While I was on my way to the Vivo, Gary was calling up each and everyone of us asking where we were, because he was the only one. When I finally reached Vivo, I gave him a missed call, and he returned my call, telling me, "Hello, eh, I very happy, everyone come already." He sounds like he's so easily satisfied! Sharon stayed around us only for awhile, and the rest of us went outdoor to sit down and chit chat. Somehow, our topics seems very limited now, but oh well. Guo An left us to go watch HIS FREE F1 RACE, and we all went to catch a movie called 'The Days'. Honestly, typical gangster story, but not intriguing enough, not a very well-made film lah, like there is no behind meaning, or it doesn't occur to me at all. Simon left for elsewhere before I could even wave him goodbye.

It was dinner time, and main comm super kuku, doing weird things like doing take-aways from Subway and Kopitiam up to the Sky Park, to eat. Gary and I bought Kilkenny Irish beer to share (because I had been wanting to try thanks to Weijie), and I finally tried it. Ummm.. guess I just prefer Breezer. Gary bought ABC beer to try, and it stinks ginseng with a bitter aftertaste.
I had an idea to give Gary a surprise, but a very small one. All of us except Xiangyun and Chervel gave an excuse that we had to go, so we'd thought he would get very sad because we had to go off so early after dinner.

We actually went to buy a mini cake for him, and cheesecake for ourselves and also to smash onto his face. We bought a pack of relighting candles, and initially wanted to get him a whole roasted chicken or durian, but he just had beer so couldn't. We wanted to save cost on the forks and knives, so Junxian and I went up to Long John Silver, and we were super suspicious. I went up to the counter, and asked the girl to give me 4 forks. I tried to ignore Junxian, but he kept asking me how many forks did I ask. The girl at the counter kept staring at me wherever I went, and she asked him why we needed so many forks for. But the problem was we weren't sitting down at all, and her that pair of eyes remained stagnant on me when we walked away. Felt so guilty! But heck lah, not gonna care.

We tried to surprise him up at the sky park, but Gary turned just as we were about to get nearer. Siannnn. He had a hard time blowing out the candles, and it was hilarious! A good birthday trick indeed. A good cheesy cake smash onto Gary's face, and I'm sure he enjoyed it. I know he totally unexpected it, because he was really gullible to think we went home. Actually not really, is because Xiangyun was very convincing when she kept whining about not wanting us to go back. We camwhored a little, and everyone tried to imitate Gary's cute pose, and I was the closest to it! Right Gary? Hahaha. It was time to get back because I promised Daddy to be home by 10, but I broke it again.

dad's successful operation!

Daddy just had his slip disc operation. It was a success, and he's recovering really fast. :D
Weijie and I spent almost our 26th month in the hospital.
Like Weijie mentioned in his blog, "near 15hours of staying in the hospital, i'm glad it's all worth it, seeing e-lis dad recovering fast and so refresh aft a long op! haha.not exactly long but to the ones waiting, it was loooooooong, right e-lis?"


I woke up at about 6am to get ready, and leave the house. Aunt Waileng took half day to accompany Daddy and settle the admin stuff for him at the hospital, so I was like calefare, but not quite. Weijie came over to meet us at 6.45am, and that's really early for him. We took a cab down to Singapore General Hospital, and Daddy waited at the Day Room for Patients, and we went to settle things at the admin office. When we went up and wait for Daddy to be allocated to his room, there was this group of 5 trainee doctors who wanted to interview Daddy. Daddy accepted the interview willingly, and he was very sporting.

We were brought to Daddy's ward after that, and it was almost luxurious. There are 4 beds in a room, and each bed is entitled to one television, the rooms has aircon, a toilet and a bathroom. Considered not bad for hospital already, a Class B at least. There we met Daddy's room mates, and the three of them were going to be discharged on that day itself. They had already stayed there for almost a week. There was this Ang Moh Pai guy, who was very funny and friendly in a cool way, and the other two were old Hokkien grandfathers. One of them had the same problem as my Dad, and did the same operation. The other two had a knee operation, and one of their's was damn disgusting and scary. It was like a large long and deep slit on his left swollen knee, and it looked like it had been cut open and then sewed back. Scary lah. The four of them had a chat, and the Ang Moh Pai Uncle talked to Weijie and I. He asked Weijie if he was Daddy's son, and he pointed to me. It just happens. He asked us if we were still schooling and all, and started joking with us like, SP is 'sure pass', NP is 'no pass', NYP is 'not yet pass', and he havent thought of any for RP. There was this Indian nurse who came in and heard him, and she told him, "Sir, your joke very good ah, very funny. No wonder the sun crying (because it was raining)." LOL! And that Ang Moh Pai Uncle very funny lah! The way he talk is just damn cool lah, I think cooler than my Dad, but my Dad cuter, even the nurses there said so. The same group of trainee doctors came to find Daddy again, and this time they wanted to have a check-up on him to have a closer look at his condition. Once they left, he said he felt like a guinea pig.

Daddy was sent into the operation theatre not long after, and Daddy told us not to worry instead of us telling him that. Aunt Waileng, Weijie and I went for lunch after that, and I told them I will treat them, because Dad gave me 60bucks for two days expenditure on food. One shot, we ordered three set meals at Delifrance, 30bucks gone. Whoaaa. Aunt Waileng went off for work, so Weijie and I went up to the Day Room to play with our laptop or PSP. I was re-playing Feeding Frenzy 2, and Weijie got so interested, he got his hands on it as I took a nap. He's so lousy, he kept losing in just the first few stages. We waited there at the Day Room, and I was checking the television for Daddy's identifier code, so that we would know what is Daddy's condition at that point of time. I thought the numbers were generated by the hospital except the last letter from the NRIC. I saw a letter I on one of the codes, and it read 'Moving back to Ward'. So I went back to the ward with Weijie to wait for Daddy to come. There was this lady who came to fetch her father, and once I came in, she said in Hokkien, "She not Singaporean right?" Obviously I don't understand what she said, so Weijie just kept saying things like, "You look like Filipino or Indonesian meh, or Caucasian?" Out of all nationalities he mentioned, of course I want to look like Ang Moh lah! So they all started talking to us, and the same lady asked Weijie how come HIS father is taking so long. I was like huh, why everyone assumes that my Daddy is his Daddy, and always asks him instead of me. So sad lah. I watched them discharge and go home, and the two ah gongs never say bye to us, except the Ang Moh Pai Uncle family bid us farewell.

Daddy only came back to the ward 2hours later, and kept us worrying a lot. However, when Daddy came back on the stretcher bed, he was awake! There was a few male nurses who helped him get onto the ward bed, and there was this Indian nurse started rattling about soccer with Weijie and the nurses, a hardcore Man U supporter I suppose, a very excited one. He told the other guy nurse that he was a F1 driver, and asked him to park the F1 car carefully (the stretcher bed). I realised that the Indian nurses in the hospital have a very good sense of humour.

I had to SMS all the concerned family members, and even Sis in Sweden. Daddy had a doctor he doesn't even know coming in to check on him, and he told the doctor that he didn't even feel like he just under went the knife. He couldn't have been under the anaesthetic for so long though. Daddy was so happy wriggling his toes, and kept repeating, "How wonderful".
Daddy was served cheesecake and milo, and it tasted not bad, diabetic one some more. He must have felt very blessed to have his daughter feeding him. There was a nurse helping him to put on a pair of thermal socks. Daddy kept on ranting that he looks sexy in the long socks, like wearing white stockings. this A lot of nurses who attended to him, all said that my Dad very cute and funny, it made me feel so happy. Hahahha. Daddy asked Weijie to do things for him, that I guess made him feel very part of the family. :D


Daddy still didn't want to sleep after he finished eating the cheesecake, and wanted to watch TV. So we let him have his own TV time, Weijie and I went downstairs to get some food. We ended up eating at the Kopitiam just opposite Deliferance, and to everyone out there at SGH, do not eat the Malay stall from there. The food sucked like crap man, we ordered some smashed chicken rice with a potato croquette, and beef noodles. The chicken rice was still quite okay, the beef noodles was just mee reebus with beef meatballs. But the beef balls smelled weird and tasted sour. Waliao, not for dogs to eat one lah, let alone humans. We walked around the compound, and bought Strawberry Pocky and Twirl Cadbury chocolates back up to the ward. We stayed there throughout till Aunt Waileng came to visit Daddy. We all decided to go back before the latest visiting hours, and we went seperate ways from Holland V.

Now, just a day after the operation, Daddy's already back. His recovery rate is already considered very fast, as compared to the other old uncle who took at least 5 days to recover. I'm so glad he's back, and he's gonna be staying at home for 1 month. So I will try not to go out so early and come home early. Love you Dad. And thank you Weijie for being there to accompany me throughout at the hospital, and hope your Mummy is feeling much better now. I love you too :D

huiqiiiiiii

I finally had a one-to-one date with baby Huiqi! She MIA so long already, it was time for her to come back to me. Hahaha. I met her in the early afternoon to pass chocolates to a REAL customer at 12pm, SIM University. This time I was way earlier by a few minutes in meeting her at 11.40am, but she was late as she came around 11.58am. She was rarely late, and I was rarely early. We arranged to meet up again in the late afternoon, while she go and meet her cousin for some reason, meant to be a surprise for me, but I cracked the mystery already. I went home, and bought an unbalanced lunch, two chicken wings, with instant noodle. I had wanted to go and run in the park, but I fell asleep on the couch.

Woke up at 5pm when I was supposed to meet Huiqi at 5.30. Great, I was going to be late again. I was supposed to meet Huiqi at Queenstown MRT, but she was not contactable when I was already on my way at about 5.15pm. She finally got back to me, but she was at still at Tampines! I helped her to collect and paid for her shoes at Queenstown CC near Commonwealth MRT instead, and then took a bus to Queenstown MRT. I initially asked her to meet me straight at Bugis MRT then changed to Somerset, so that it would make things faster. In the end, she reached Somerset much earlier, because the person she bought the shoes from took really long to meet me, and I took a long time for the bus to come. So many complications just to meet her! By the time I met her at Somerset bus stop, it was already 7pm! Gosh, so little time to hang out. :( We took the bus to Bugis Street and did some window shopping. We saw quite a number of nice things, and tried clothes that didn't fit us. Hahaha. We both bought a similar embroidered top at 18bucks, which I think is a pretty good buy.

It was getting very late, so we decided to go grab bubble tea and then have kway chap for dinner. My green apple milk tea with green apple jelly was good, but the kway chap seller pissed us off. Huiqi told the guy, only want the intestines and pork, he charged us 14 bucks and gave us the fishcake and everything, with a very small portion of duck. Nahbeh. Even when we went to confront him about giving us the wrong order, he gave us the gesture like, "what you want me to do, everything cut for you already". Neh Neh Pok, aiyah nevermind lah, got kway chap eat can already. The meal was quite filling, and we didn't finish all the fishcake and eggs. I went down with Huiqi to Breadtalk, and we chatted all the way home on the MRT.

She forgot to get the shoes back from me, and it was great being out with her once again. I love you girl!

chalet and sentosa

INCOMPLETE POST YET AGAIN.
Tuesday

It was the SL chalet, and I was specially invited by ah gong to go. And it was a good thing I was there, because the numbers would had been lesser, due to several reasons. Myself, Jon Yeo, Huiqi, Huiting, Hua Dong, Ying Hua, Shi Yan, Yun Fang, Danny, Jing Yi, Jia Wen, Mr Aaron Chua.

I met up with Huiting and Huadong at IMM to get the food stuff required for the night's dinner, and as per usual, all of us were late. The Giant Hypermarket at IMM is screwed up, and the service like cock. We took at least 20 minutes just to find aluminium foil, and we didn't buy it in the end. All the staff there just pointed directions on where the foil was, and none was reliable, with them pointing everywhere. This was an excuse for being late, and Aaron Chua was the kindest soul to actually drive all the way from the arranged place Tiong Bahru, to IMM, just to fetch us to Changi Aloha. Thanks yo Aaron Chua shuai ge! We picked Huiqi up at Clementi, and there we go onto the AYE to Aloha, to meet Jon Yeo Ah Gong.

Our chalet was just beside the Old Changi Hospital, and the Chalet's rooms were indeed freaky. Broken cabinets, and all the furniture were of old age. We walked over to Changi Village, and met up with Yunfang and Shiyan, to have lunch at Subway. Later on, we bought the necessary items like the drinks and ice-cubes, and went back to the Chalet.

We had to start to cook so that dinner would be on time, and it was about 5pm. The other food needed oil, and we had to wait for Eames to come to provide us with it. I started off with my Assam prawns, and I called my dad for the recipe. I am supposed to be quite amateur in cooking, but apparently not to my friends. He told me to squeeze the Tamarind's juice, but I bought the thing in a form of a block, and totally had no idea how to squeeze it. SO, I just took the whole block and mixed it with the prawns. There were so many seeds, that I had to try and pick them out one by one. It looked like shit, but when we started to cook it, it smelt really good! It was the first dish to be on the table, but it was left untouched for a pretty long time. Huadong made the grass jelly with cocktail fruits, Huiqi cooked her Kimchi soup, Yinghua did the french toasts, the others cooked the chicken rice without the chicken, mashed potato. The rest of the food had to wait, because we needed the oil. Jingyi and Eames lah, came so late, at about 7pm. We cooked the remaining dishes, like the Sambal KangKong, Pasta with prego sauce, fried self-made wanton, brocolli soup, black pepper chicken. Jon and Yinghua cooked the cereal prawns, looked and smelled nice, but didn't taste like the REAL cereal prawns. Hahaha. Eames had the Curry Vegetables readily prepared. I used half the pasta noodles to cook with bacon and hotdog, which they thought it was weird, but tasted good with their modification of adding egg and milk, it tasted like carbonara.
By the time we all could sit down and eat, it was already 10pm! We took 5hours to cook up this meal! All the food had already turned cold, and we wasted alot of food, I felt really guilty, we never think for the people in Africa. Thank goodness we had Danny to help us lessen the food wastage.

We stayed in the chalet watching Arts Central, a 11pm show called 'Truth Destination', about ang mohs finding ghosts in the most haunted places in Thailand. The show did not scare us one bit. We decided to go down to Old Changi Hospital which was only about 100 meters away, for some real experience. Some of them backed out and decided to wait for us below, whilst the rest of us walked up the long dark eery staircase in pairs of 4. JingYi and I held onto each other closely because we were getting jitters, but we tried to digress away from the thought by talking about the mosquito bites we were getting. We managed to get up there to get a glimpse of the front building, but we were wanting to go back down, except the few of them who managed to tour the outskirts of the building. I wanted to see how the place really looked like, so they went back up with Eames and I, as the rest decided to stay downstairs to wait for us. We walked around the compound of the OCH, but we decided not to go inside, because it was giving me the creeps. The freshly cracked lightsticks made the place less scary, meaning there were people there. Although we each saw shadows, but it did comfort us that the shadows were from real people. We were still hesitating whether to go in or not, but once we turned around, we felt a gust of wind brushing across our legs. Eames and Danny wanted to go down already because they were feeling very uneasy, so we all decided to go back down. We thought of going back to Old Changi Hospital the next morning, but we did not go in the end.

We all strolled down the Changi Village to check out the Ba Poks (transvertites), we only saw a couple or two. We walked back to the chalet by the Changi Beach, and it was long alright. Once back at the chalet, it was already 3am, we played truth or dare with blackjack. Only after a few rounds, I took a nap with Huiqi, while the rest continued to play and do ridiculous things. I was damn tired but just couldn't go to sleep because they were damn noisy. We finally had some peace and quiet when they went down to cook maggi. But I know I missed out on alot of fun. :(

Wednesday

It was 10am the next day I woke up, and I woke up to discover the people sleeping around me was different. Huiqi, JiaWen and Danny had already gone home. I walked around the chalet rooms, and went to find whoever was downstairs. I went into the living room, the kitchen, then found them in the room on the first floor. Jon was still awake amazingly, he seemed like he didn't get a wink at all. I salute you jon, for staying up the whole entire night. I took a bath alone, and thought I heard weird piping noises, but didn't think much otherwise. Eames said he did hear stuff around in the chalet, and Huiting felt something weird. But oh well, I'm just lucky not to feel anything like that. The toilet lock on the second floor had some kind of problem.

We took a bus to Changi Village to take another bus to Tampines. From Tampines bus interchange, Shiyan and Yunfang went off. We took a train down to Harbour Front and had our brunch at Seah Lim Market just across the road from Harbour Front Centre. We were thinking of going over to Yinghua's place to play mahjong and play Playstation, but we decided to go to Sentosa instead, on a sun-less, cool and breezy day. At Sentosa, JingYi and I changed into our bikinis and played volleyball, swim, and tried to tan. We spent the whole day playing volleyball and it was great! I felt like I've improved soooo much, I'm finally an amateur at beach volleyball now. From someone who can't even serve and hit the ball, to one who can serve and hit the ball over the net. Aren't you proud of me, Weijie? We played a dare, and had a girl power match with boy power. Girl power lost a game because we used the wrong formations, so we had to go and find this Angmoh couple and call them Pretty and Handsome, and give them a chip. We accomplished it.

While I was playing volleyball with them, JingYi went swimming alone. Once we finished a few rounds of volleyball rally, I went to find JingYi. To my horror, she was no where to be found in the waters. All of us tried to look around for her, but not anywhere in sight. We all thought she really drowned, and started to get very frantic. We checked if she went somewhere else like the toilet, but her phone and shirt was still under the shelter. Danny Eames and Huadong almost wanted to jump into the sea to find her, whilst Huiting Yinghua and I combed the shorelines across the other side, that I almost wanted to tell the lifeguard about her disappearance. Someone went to ask the ang moh couple if they saw JingYi, and told him where she walked to. We found her by the rocks at the Rasa Hotel. What a scare! That Lao Bu Bu didn't behave herself. We continued playing volleyball, and had a match with this group of guys from ITE Yishun.

We played till about 8pm, went to wash up and got ready to leave the place. I left my camera at the plants area near the volleyball court, so I asked Danny my Lao Bei Bei to help me get it, because he was already ready to leave the place and I needed to go wash up. It was about 10pm already by the time we reached Vivo. Some of them went off, and we had our dinner at Carl's Junior. Lao Bei Bei and Lao Bu Bu came late because they went to play the Luge ride! Lao Bei Bei gave me a scare when he said he didn't remember me asking for my camera. I finished a Portbello Mushroom Burger meal on my own, and I suppose it's quite a big accomplishment.

clarke quay retards


@#$)@*%(&*!

I have serious short term memory these few days, and I blame friends. Hahaha. I have been referring to friends' blogs just to blog about what I did with them on the past few days. That's like pretty bad.


IT'S US AGAIN YO!

Alright, before I forget to post again, I went out with the expanded makan gang today! They all met up earlier, to look for food for the upcoming chalet, and also to watch the movie 'mirror'.
I was together with my smelly boyfriend during that whole period of time, and he was sooooo nice to accompany me all the way to Ikea to have meatballs and help me carry my storage stool back home. Thanks love for even coming out with me when you weren't feeling too good, though the whole time you felt like vomitting, because of the excessive alcoholic birthday present Josiah got you. I so-called sent him home, by letting him alight at his house bus stop, whilst I took the bus down to Cathay to meet the makan gang.
I arrived just on time, and there I saw FIONA! Wheeeee, she's back from Lai Tai Lai's homeland, Hong Kong! Gave her a big hug on the spot, haven't seen her for a week, kinda missed her already. Hahaha. She got me a floral tube dress, niceeee, thanks Fionnn! Fiona, Amanda, Jon Han/ Lee/ Yeo, Jing Yi, Alicia, Eames, Huadong, Huiting, Shuling, and I remembered having a glimpse of Qinjie, but didn't managed to see my baby Huiqi! Qinjie went to meet his friends, and Shu and Jon Lee left for home after the movie. Didn't talk to her much though :( Sorry Shu shu!

The rest of us took a bus to Chinatown, and coincidentally, all the girls ordered food from the same Cheena stall, and even ordered the same food. Hahahaha. Fiona, Huiting, Amanda and I shared 10 xiaolongbaos, 10 fried dumplings ('guo tie', I got it right guys! No more 'tie ban', OR shui jiao like someone assumed also, HAHAHA), 1 bowl of spicy and sour soup, 1 bowl of spicy and sour noodle, 2 bowls of ja jang myun, and 1 bowl of szechuan spicy noodle. Nahbeh, the China uncle confirmed the dishes with us twice, but in the end served us 3 szechuan spicy noodle. Nevermind, we decided to forgive the China man. We'd thought it'd be quite alright, but the whole damn szechuan noodle smelt and tasted like peanut soup with la mian. Gu gu jiao, I want to eat proper chinese food yo, give me peanut sauce noodle, some more charge me 4 bucks for no meat but just peanut and noodles, cheat my money! Now I'm really angry at the China man. Everything else was okay, so let it be lah, anyway I shitted all the peanut out already, I think.


I look like THE man.

After food, we walked along Clarke Quay and I can't remember much on what we did there. All I knew was that we were walking aimlessly to find a place to sit down and chill, but ended up camwhoring everywhere we walked, letting Ang-mohs laugh and point at us while we did jumpshots. Jon Ah Gong piggybacked me all the way to TCC, and that we made an appointment together to go and try out the bungee thing!

Oh yeah, and I remember laughing hard at Fiona while she tried to get up the onto the stone pallet along the bridge. She was wearing a dress, and she took 5 minutes to get up even with at least 5 pairs of hands trying to pull her up. Hahahahahaha. Not long after she finally got up, we decided to get down and go to Brewerks, but ended up going to 7-eleven to get Big Gulp. LOL. It was already so late, that my Dad was too pissed to even bother replying to me "Sorry Daddy I will be home late" message.

Val's birthday partyyyyyy

(INCOMPLETE DRAFT)

It was a celebration for Val's upcoming birthday, and it was shitloads funnnnnnnnyyy. I totally had a good time laughing at people, and of course the intended birthday girl.

I met up with Wenfang at Dover, and took bus 33 all the way to Kent Ridge station. Jacq's description of the place in the message was, "Take 33 to kent ridge station. Then just walk there. It's at west coast opposite the cheese prata shop." Wenfang and I practically walked all the way to the cheese prata shop and went across We then called Jacq to confirm if we were at the right place, because we were at the back gate of some other place. We then realised that the Varsity Park Condominium was just opposite the station! We saw Joshua Toh at the traffic light, so we went in together. The security guard was a nice chinese guy, not like those stupid cocky malay or indian security guards who are so rude to teenagers and think that they damn cool. We went in to find the function room next to the swimming pool, and there was the whole group of guys having fun in the swimming pool. The entire place was B.E.A.U-TIFUL. I wanna move to Varsity Park Condo next time!

There was Hosea, Jacq and her BF, Lissa, decorating up the whole place with balloons and all. So the three of us helped out. We placed the helium balloons on the floor like an isle for Valerie to walk through when she comes in. We even thought of putting dry ice along the passageway. Grace Wee finally came, and we went out to fetch her. Wenfang, Grace, and I had a chat about some stuff, and don't forget our dinner thing alright, only three of us know about it! Hahaha. Everyone gathered back at the function room, to wait for Val's appearance, as Jacq went to fetch and delude her. The lights were dimmed once we were informed that she was arriving, like some VIP. Then she walked in, and surprise! She did look shocked, grinning ear to ear, walking down the isle of litted candles, to her name, VAL. We thought she was very surprised, but Jacq spoiled the surprise by accidentally messaging her, "How, do you still need me to stall time?" SHEESH. Oh well, she was the organizer, so everything was thanks to her. Dinner was catered to 10bucks per person, but the food sucked, except the dessert. There were no cups, we used the plastic bowls to drink.

I had a jolly good time watching and laughing at the guys sucking in helium, and talking in that cute and funny toneee. It was hilarioussss! Joker Kang YongZhi was like a balloon man, cutting balloons from around his neck whenever they needed it. Valerie had a go at it, and she sounded like a chipmunk!

They got her a cake from Awfully chocolate, and what was so coincidental was that the words, 'Happy Birthday Whiney Queen" on the rugby cake, was written by Alicia who's working there! Cool right! Hahahaa. The oh-so-smart Cedric and some others went to light up sparklers using the fire from the candles on top of the cake, and yay, the whole room was filled with smoke. It was ultra funny, and we all ran out of the room choking, like as if a fire just occured. Some still could go back and play twister, when the smoke hadn't subsided. The girls cut the cake for everyone, and it tasted fudging chocolatey goooooood.

We prepared a Butterfly Pinata earlier on filled with peanuts and Hacks sweets outside on a tree, and blind-folded Valerie with FBT shorts and Evan's shirt. We made her turn around at least 30 rounds, and asked her to walk towards the Pinata. She almost walked into the pool, but she was lucky not to. But she still got dunked into the pool in anyway. Hahaha. Sokaing wet, she still continued to try and hit the Pinata. First the wings dropped off, and there left the body of the butterfly hanging up there. She hit the Pinata so hard, that all the sweets and peanuts were broken, and some sweets even dissolved in the pool. There was whip cream and chocolate all over the place because of Valerie's impulse on getting people dirty like her.

We cleaned the place up, and bid farewell.

FMB photoshoot

I wasted my money on cab fare just to get to school by 8.30am, and the whole photo shoot thing actually started at 10. GREAT. We were to be in school for a photo shoot for our school BE brochure.


My mouth was open because I burped. HAHA.

Most of the time spent was waiting, and waiting. Meanwhile, the FMB people, Jon Yeo, YingHua, XiangYun and myself, took lots of jumpshots to kill time.
Being the model for the photoshoot was tiring and difficult, because they expect you to smile naturally the whole entire time. YingHua and I took several shots for the REB side, which I suppose we weren't exactly FMB models.

We had like a field tour to places like HDB Hub and Telok Blangah Park, just to take pictures. It was my first time at both places, and I managed to get onto the long bridge opposite Hort Park, but just that we were at the other end. The four of us had lots of fun trying to sell off our tea break, Curry Puffs. We actually managed to get a "customer" who wore a 'IYSG' shirt. Hilarious I tell you.

After the REBs were done, we got back on the coach bus to the HDB Hub, and XiangYun went home from there. Permission was granted by the security, and we were allowed in for the last half hour before closing time. I posed again for REB side, because our tops were not brightly coloured enough for me to be together with FMBs. It was a damn ugly shot I swear, because my hand was sticking out like an ah ma, and I was closest to the camera, sure look damn fat, no, I meant even fatter. Nah beh, I'm so not anticipating to see my face in the brochures, I hope they photoshop my face or something. No wonder I didn't get selected for the front cover of the brochure lah, not good enough. Hahaha.

Jon Yeo, Yinghua, Huadong, and I didn't follow the bus back to school and left from there, and it was my first time at Toa Payoh. We took bus 88 to Ang Mo Kio Hub, and we had our dinner at the 2nd Level open concept Roti Prata shop. Jon and I had the last of the mutton briyani, we were really lucky! Dinner was good, very worth my money I felt. We all went to the arcade, and had a great time there. :D

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ED!

Today, a big
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, MY SEXY WEIJIE! Y

I overslept and didn't wish Boyfriend at 12am, I'm so sorry about that love! I only woke up to message him when he was already asleep. Through his 9 missed calls to me, I knew he was damn upset.

I woke up at 8am, and realised that I have not finished the video for Weijie. I wanted to surprise Weijie with his friends at Giraffe initially, and called Wenhao and Tianhang to help me call in for more people, so thanks guys, especially Wenhao. Happy Birthday to you too Tianhang! I already got Weijie his Camera's Prime Lens and he is already using it, but there wasn't anything else for me to give him on his actual birthday. So I went online to google for ideas, but it didn't help at all. I decided to get him 18 cheap cheap items, since it was his 18th birthday. I went down to the provision shop to buy sweets, chocolates, and snacks, and to the cake shop to get a cute iced donut as his cake. Went back home to make him a personalized chocolate bar, and find a candle to prepare the "cake" on standby. I got ready, and gave an excuse that I wasn't ready so that he could come up to my place outside for the surprise donut. And yay, he was so happy to see the litted candle on the donut, made a wish and blew it out. We were running late to meet Fenny and Clement already, so I forced the donut into his mouth, and we left to take a cab down to United Square.

There we were at the Vienna Restaurant, and waited for the two late pigs to come. They came in holding a self-made strawberry man card, and a ripcurl plastic bag with a volcom hoodie in it. We started to feast on the buffet spread, but not as much as I did with my makan gang. I didn't eat my 35dollar worth! Siannnn. We started playing "zhong zi mi ma" after our 3rd serving, and we tried forcing Clement to eat the DURIAN cake (because he hates durian), and we had to eat a pint of Wasabe each time anyone lost, subsequently. After the buffet, we took a bus to the Cathay, to watch a movie. Fenny and I had wanted to watch Mama Mia, but the two guys insisted on some action movie, Bangkok Dangerous. Since it was Weijie's birthday, we decided to give in to him this ONCE. Hahaha. But guess what ,the ending of the show sucks.




I went to the toilet unusually several times to make calls to Wenhao to confirm the people coming. Fenny had to go back home with Clement as her escort, to pack up and fly for Melbourne. I was trying to drag time till 8.30, so I tried to spend some time with Weijie walking around Orchard aimlessly. I was messaging too much on that day, that I believe I did arouse Weijie's suspicion there was indeed going to be something planned for him. Good thing I had Joshua Lim to destroy his suspicion, because he wasn't coming already. I could use Josh as an excuse as my reason for being on the phone the whole time.
Anyway, thank you Josh for coming by Giraffe to find us, although we had already changed to venue to Bukit Timah's Brewerks. I still haven't given him the kiss you instructed me to, because I'm leaving it for you, or more like giving you the permission, to give him that birthday kiss. Hahaha.

We took a bus down to Brewerks, and Wilson ALMOST spoiled the surprise by calling Weijie. When we arrived at Brewerks, Weijie saw Wenhao they all at the table but still had no clue that they were there FOR HIM. He was still asking if there was anyone sitting in those empty places whilst I was already sitting in, and still thought it was all coincidental, until he noticed me smiling alot. SO SLOW RIGHT? Hahaha. So yea anyway, let me say my thanks to the people who came down; Weidong, Shihan, Tianhang, Wenhao, Wilson, Jerene, Clement. You guys made his day :D
We changed venue again to Lazy Lizard at Sixth Avenue, because there was no more Golden Ale at Brewerkz, and Weidong had to pass some Swavrovski thing to Frankie. We all chilled out at the place, ordering a jug of San Miguel's Beer and a jug of Cranberry Vodka, whatever it was. Tianhang and I had quite some fun on the Elvis pinball machine and the games machine, playing photo hunt, matching fruits. Shihan had a game of pool, and the rest were drinking and chatting.

Weijie was able to go over to Clement's place to stayover, and it was like quite a rare chance. He was given the permission because it was his birthday. Hahaha. Although everything was so last minute, but it was a success.
To Boyfriend: I'm glad you love the 18 little gifts I got you, actually is 19 right :D I hope you enjoyed the Vienna treat and the surprise, love me more for being so good at keeping it. Y
