FINALLY my last day at work..
Super excited and happy that i can really finally take a long-awaited break le.
Over my 4 months plus at Recruit Legal...
I really learnt super a lot of things
I learnt to handle difficult clients and their horrible demands
Unlike other job that many of us are having
Mostly admin, but this one is real different
Its a head-hunting firm where i learnt to deal with stress
Do a load of headhunting and interacting with my clients.
I really love the thrill and challenges i gotten frm this job.

Nice people in the office i met.
Though it was pretty short.But i really cherish my times there
Really fulfilling experience i have

First and former, my wonderful Mentor - Eunice.
Really sweet girl. Though she is supposed to be mentoring me
Yet, she is really more like a friend tome.
Through her, i love MOS milk tea.
Definitely someone that i will remember for life.
Haha. Alwaes late for wrk.Spend 30 over bucks on cab.
Lol. Eunice, u must make sure u dun splurge on cab fare!

Super cute girl. Funny and i love to tease her "Alla Alla A A.."
Haha. =P
Everyone in the office will agree that she brings laughter to office
Imagine dancing suddenly to the music and singing.
Lol. As i type this, i am trying to ctrl my laughter.
Ever exciting girl.
Though she may be frm China and also a newbie in the office,all of us absolutely love her!!

Once again, boredom got the better of me.
Hence, the blog has to be updated.
Pardon me, blog viewers.
This blog has since become my lamenting heaven
Bla Bla Bla.

Countdown to freedom. Yes. 4 more days. :)
Finally i can enjoy life.
Thinking of it indeed brings a wide grin to my face.

Gonna bid farewell to the morning sun and the horribly packed MRT
Welcome to the late night sleeping club! Yay!
Hooray. I am drafting out my schedule of Tai Tai life now.
Wahaha.

Meeting My lao gong, Qi Qi on sat to rebond hair.
My hair has gone so wild and un-tame that i decided to rebond it again
Haix. 3 times doing drastic damage to my hair.
Lets hope the chemical used is great cos i dun wan to be bald!!
Read somewhere in the newspapers (many many years ago) that someone lost her hair cos of rebonding
No No !! No way! I cant imagine if i actually lose my hair.
Urgh, so superficial rite?
*shrug shoulders.

Had gastric pain yesterday on my way home.
To think that i actually had quite a fair bit of food for the day.
Just my luck. Hurried home to eat, eat and eat.
Then went to tuition with little Ernest.
So cute. He actually got me little presents now and then.
But still, i prefer to teach secondary 4 A maths.
Maybe not gonna teach Ernest anymore..
Since he is just pri 1 this year.

I cant wait for 2nd July!
First, i willbe meeting belle for medical checkup for SMU thingy
Den at night, sending my dear Huiling off.
All right. dun wan to elaborate more..all else i will flood the airport with tears.
Hope that can go have one last dinner at the airport before she leaves.

Been so in love with this song these days..

SHE - 说你爱我

下着雨 让尘气稀释回忆
我靠着 你不出声音
看着你 看着斑驳的甜蜜
爱你困住你也困住我自己
我那躲也躲不掉的微妙伤口隐隐作痛
你那戒也戒不掉的甜蜜借口
也让我精神腐朽

说你爱我变成一种问候 不如趁早放手 把爱坠落让满地鲜红
说你爱我变成一种折磨 不用陪我走到最后 我承担不起你的承诺

Nevertheless it is found in SHE latest album's PLAY!!
So So nice!! <3 <3 <3

Here's just a random post.
Main purpose of the post is to post some pics which i took these days
I know i know..u must be thinking its all my pic..
Haha. U gotta it all so wrong!
Though i admit i am vain, but Come on!
Who doesn't enjoy looking yourself in the mirror? =P

These pictures were taken during Father's Day
17th June 2007.
My family celebrated it with my all-time favourite neighbours
Had a super nice dinner at one of the eating stall at Fajar.
Yummy. I love the juicy Chilli Crab there!!

Goodness sake. The wait for the food is real long.
We are all getting bored.
Hence, started taking pics..

Yang Yang looking so glum.
He was trying to smile for the camera but to no avail.
This is real cute.
Anyway Yang Yang's real name is Dexter Hong Ting Yang
But whenever u ask him wad's his name..
He will say " Turtle Hon Tin Yang" and end off with a big smile.
Haha. He cant pronouce his name properly. So cute.
Made us laugh whenever he says his name..
Maybe can seriously think abt changing his name to Turtle.
Though it may seem ridiculous, but its real cute!!

Next, in action is Winnie.
She practically snatached the camera from me.
Yes, just like me, she loves taking shots!
Haha. Yay! One more vain little lady..

The contrast is BIG sia.
Yang Yang looking so glum and Winnie so sweetly posing.
I LOVE KIDS!! :)

After waiting for 20 minutes..we were pratically starving.
Hence, the second round of shots..

Yes. We are getting mad that our food isn't here yet.
Winnie sulking. But still, its cute.

This photo is definitely one of my favourite for that night.
Yang Yang looks like a little kitten!!
Oh my!! If u see carefully, he is on baby chair somemore.
Kids are such adorable creatures that God brought into our lives.

Sadly, they are soon shifting into Seng Kang in August.
I am so gonna miss them.
Holy. I have been posting that i miss alot of ppl these days
Maybe cos i am getting older, thus keep missing ppl?
Haha. sounds so corny rite?
To keep saying miss ppl.
But REALLY la. They are some ppl that i have been missing these days.
U know who u are. :)

Went for dinner at Kallang yesterday.
Not very nice food though.
After that, went to Seng kang to see my uncle's new hse.
Unfortunately, they didnt have the key along with them.
-_-" 20 odd of us were waiting outside to go in...
In the end... we aren't able to go in cos my uncle so blur.
Haven get the keys from the old owner of the hse.
Pretty house though. Those kind of condo-type of HDB.
My granny was so enthu.
Imagine, asking the whole lot of us to go for coffee at 11 pm
After we had dinner at Kallang.
My granny is so funny.

One real cool car that i saw over there.

Haha. Girls will start going gaga and throw themseves at that guy.

Ah,quite tired because i went for rotaract camp in np and came back yesterday. Only slept for about an hour for that night. Yup, same cca with qian jun, jan sen, en qing. I and few friends are in charge of the games the participants going to play. We didnt play station games but made me think of st john camp, spiderweb, confidence fall, quite miss the games and fun,haha. Yeh, i planned scavenger hunt and those ice breaking games and they quite enjoy playing.

Our cca also organised nightwalk for the campers and the committee ppl are involved in scaring ppl.2 person in each station. I was stationed at the window outside the staircase.We would just bang on the window near the staircase to frighten them. And the stupidest thing of all is i didnt know they can see us clearly from the staircase!!! At the staircase area is very dark, i could hardly see them and thought that they also cant see us.No wonder many ppl are not scared. Those ppl who plan the nightwalk and stations never check properly.I feel so embarrasing when the campers told me after the nightwalk,Argghhh...

After breaking camp, i can't go back home to sleep, cos i nid to do project with my friends. I kept on dozing off when doing project and cant think properly.Too many projects and they making me crazy, everytime rushing out the projects.My holiday going to end soon,also means many projects are due. Jia you to me, my friends and of course to sabrina for your studies.... k, looking forward to our outing in jul =)

Firstly, Beattie insisted that she gain weight.
All right, abit I guess
Next, Nianci had a real cool haircut.
Short and sweet. Style sia la!
Finally, Huiling –the STAR for the day!!
She slimmed down by so so so much!
Holy. I am so envious.

Nanny and i cam-whoring as Beattie and Huiling looks on, refusing to join in.

Vain right? Haha.
Let me say my piece first before u pass the verdict.
It will definitely be our last few times as a foursome
Huiling is leaving for Australia for a 3 year course.
Sharks. Though she is coming back to visit us again this dec..
I am already missing her right now…oohh…

We ate Dim Sum at Food Republic once more.
Yummy. I love the prawn fillings!
Juicy and tasty. Imagine the juice oozing out once u bite it.
We finish it so fast, that I didn’t have the time to take pics of it.
I love the super duper sweet Ice Kachang there.
The 3 of them were complaining that it was far too sweet
There I was happily savouring it simply cos I LOVE sweet stuffs!

Went shopping arnd and once more I sin terribly
Oh Lord! I just cant resist the temptation.
Nanny was beside me convincing me that I shld get the spag top
Urrgh..i hate myself. I surrendered and paid for it.
I am such a shopaholic these days!!
Nope! I must have a resolution soon – NOT TO SPURLGE ANYMORE!

Passed Nanny her bdae gift too
A necklace and a pair of ear-ring from Perlini Silver
Nanny was commenting that we got her stuff from Perlini Silver last yr too
Haha. No choice la, dear, cos I am so into Perlini stuffs these days.
Come on! At least haven succumb to SK Jewellery, Tiffany & Co.
So I am still safe. Phew. Haha. :P

Was stopped on the streets of Orchard by a guy.
Guess what? Modeling agency.
So unfortunate. Everytime go out with Nanny got such things happen
3 times. Nanny olso commented tat she only experience it when with me
Haha. I guess it’s jus cos we look naïve and easily conned by frauds.

Saw Wei Xiang shortly after we met the modeling agency guy.
Pleasant surprise. Kinda nice to meet friends whom u seldom see arnd
In less than 5 minutes’ time, we saw xiao bai!!
Lol. While he was chatting with us.
His frien suddenly walked towards us and stood beside
Smiling sheepishly at xiao bai.
I would have assume they were gays if I didn’t noe xiaobai. lol

After shopping, I had an urge to go cut hair.
Weather far too freaking hot these days
At arnd 8 plus, nanny and I were sitting patiently in JP’s Storm
The uncle who washed my hair was real funny and flirty.
He even asked me to wait for him to knock off and go home tgt
Cos he lives somewhere near me.
CCK vs BPP . Lol.
Had a haircut that is so much shorter than I had previously.
Trying to get used to it.
Not really ugly but wonder if my hair will starts to get wild and curly
If yes, pls do curl in nice curves or I’ll have to resort to rebonding again
Which I dun really have the cash and patience to.
Hmm..maybe being bald like Roy is good.
At least can save on hair wax and dun need comb hair.lol
Kidding sista, u look so cute in ur new hairdo.
At least it did charm one particular girl.
Scandalous sista I have here. Haha.

Gotta end here, will post the pics took yesterday soon.
So pls, for goodness sake, Endure with a IT- Idiot like me.

Oh my! I am missing my 3 dearies now!!

This is real stupid and freaking spoiling my mood.
Imagine dreaming on a full-moon night about smth that is so beyond one' dream.
No no. In case u are thinking that i dreamt of some fishy things.
I dreamt about Satan. Holy. Gurlp.
I am serious.not joking

In my dreams, Satan looked like just any Tom, Dick and Harry.
Not exceptionally handsome nor freaking ugly. Just plain.
Cant reall remember the dream in detail
But i noe it concern me and my mummy i guess

Guess wad. This is spooky.
I woke up with two ugly scars on my nose.
At first i thought i sleep walked again and hit the wall..
But no way! If that's the case, it would be my nose tip..
Gosh. Instead of that, i got two unsightly scar at my nose bridge.

My colleagues were suggesting that maybe i scratched myself accidentally in my slp
Well..maybe..since my nails are pretty long and sharp.
Yucks, it totally disfigured my already BAD face.
Not gonna show any pictures. It just ruined me.

Went shopping with Huiling and Helen ah yee at Orchard yesterday.
Ate Long John Silver. Yummy.
It had been ages since i ate deep-fried.
Mummy will always say " Girl, oily food = more pimples!"
Sulking, i will reluctantly shift my spoon and folk away.
Mummy would then point out the greeny vegetables and smile.

All right. For the sake of vainty and more, i endure
The "All-Green" diet.
Let's hope it really works or soon i am going vegetarian nut.

Ya.back to original topic -Orchard outing.
We shopped arnd and practically dragged Huiling to prevent her frm slipping home
Haha. Poor Huiling.
Huiling and I bought a top and a dress (barely short nor long) respectively.
Really like it so much, though i dunno when i can wear it for.
Hehe, that's wad girls normally does right?
We jus want to own pretty stuffs that we hardly think if we really need it.
i am one guility soul in that arena.

Took neoprints with Huiling and Helen.
Lets not mention it. It's just not a photogenic day of mine.
All right, when was i ever nice-looking in front of cams?
Haha. Yet, i still love to cam-whore! Yay!
Speaking of which, i simply love taking shots in toilets.
Fetish sia. =P Who cares!

Pretty Helen and Huiling were real nice companions for shopping.
Had fun with the two sweeties! :)
Of course, i look forward to my outing with my dearies tmr!!
Hooray. FINALLY, can see my jie jies!!
Oh boy! I miss them real much.

9 more working days to freedom!
Yay. I cant wait for work to end so that i can slack
Slp till super late. Read my novels till i shuang.
Just pure lazing arnd.
I can visualise a fatter me w/o work already.
All slp, eat, read and of course MORE shopping.
* Large grin.

Roy smsed me just now.
Realised that i have such a cute sista.
He actually promoted Belle and me during his army days to his bunk mates.
Well, no harm making more friends rite?
Gonna help Roy keeps a lookout for cute girls in return.
Any cute girls out there willing to make friends with my loveable sista?
I promise he can sweep u off ur feet with his manly deep voice when he sings.
He is also a gentleman sia la.
Dun play play ah!
Roy, i need publicity fees frm u after praising u so much!!
Kidding la, sista.
We will always love our sista!!


Cant wait to go for my medical checkup for the matriculation 2007
Luckily Belle going SMU with me, or i will be so so lonely.
Wonder why the orientation so long
14 July to 23 August (if i remember correctly)
I am just so not good with dates. Nvm.

Gotta go. I am so into Poker 7 on MSN..
Thanks Bao for introducing that game to me.haha
He is my favourite partner for that game.
Cos i enjoy winning him.
Yaya payaya liao! Lol.
Actually not i good at that game..is cos Bao is bad at that game.
so happy to thrash him.

Here goes..ahemm..

We were sailing along
(We were sailing along)

On moonlight bay
(on moonlight bay)

We can hear the voices singing
(singing..)

What did they say
(What did they say)

You have stolen my heart
(I have stolen your heart)

Now dun go away
(I wont go away)

As we sail along the moonlight bay

On moonlight bay ..on moonlight bay... on moonlight bay...

Not really sure if it is 100% correct though. haha. How come Sherlyn suddenly so enthu abt this song de?? Intend to sing it to ur Mr Pig Pig ah?? Lol. Hope the lyrics whether correct or not,helps.

Finally back at workplace. Took half day leave yesterday. Felt real sick in the tummy that i cant endure the pain. no appettite at all. wasted a bowl of noodle. took only 3 spoonful and gave up. Spent 14 bucks on cab fare frm Raffles to my home.

Spent the rest of my day tossing and turning in bed, holding my tummy as i try so hard to slp. The pain was excruciating. I felt as though many knives are inside my stomach, threatening to pierce open my stomach. Mummy was patient with mi, though i was mainly sobbing in pain and groaning.

I hate being ill. it sucks. no appetitte. whateva goes in, comes out shortly and in a gruesome way.yucks! eating bland food sucks. There goes spicy food, milky substance and many more..Gosh. My colleagues were commenting that i was paler than ever. Holy. considering that i am already fair. now i reall believe i look hideous yesterday. probably like a ghost.

Father's day is coming. No more feast for me. Boo.. i hate it. Why did i fall ill again at such a timely week??!!I miss good food. Help!! But come to think abt it, plain porridge with prickled lettuce dun seems a bad idea..at least i am now on an official diet. haha.

I am crazing badly for Pizza from Pizza Hut! Plus ice cream from Ben & Jerry. Plus milk tea from Sweet talk. Plus Plus strawberry milk shake from the Coffee Club. Ahh!! The list seems to be freaking long.. In short, being ill is real real bad.

Hmms... just finised a bar of kinder breuno... hahas surprisingly, cos i dun really like chocolates *lick* last saturday was a meaningful day for me, i went down to orchard to help out with the flea market opened just beside cineleisure. It was actually my cousin's stall, she is now turning into an entrepreneur. i guess fate has brought my cousin, Candy closer to me n my family once again. When we were young, we used to play tgt quite a lot, sometimes we even stayover at each other's house. But as we grew older, everyone starts to turn into a diff person n due to the distant, we started to drift apart. Friends occupied a big part of our lives, the lack of gatherings had made the few of us becoming less talkative with each other. So i m glad i gotta work in KKH cos it means that we get to see each other more...

these days, we meet up to play mahjongs, give tuition to her, help her to manage her stalls and go out to k box... i guess its oso the death of my cousin, Zhong jie that brought us closer tgt. it makes us realise that life is really short, therefore, we asked one another out whenever there is a chance. U really dunno when a person will b right before u actively, and another second ltr, he will not b in this world anymore... thinking bout this make me really sad.

Talking bout te stall, its started at 12 noon n ended ard 7? my cousin was still reluctant to close stall then, if not for the darkening of sky, she would have open the stall till 12 midnight i guess =p can see she earns quite alot from here. Afterwhich we went for dinner at pasta mania.. i shared a pizza n bake rice with my sisters... hees. My dear n i took a neoprint after the meal as we walked ard... after the neoprint was taken, we went to StarBucks to look for my cousin, yisan n sisters. They were all tired looking, n sat there chit chatting trying to catch up w each other's life... hahas...

hmmx tuesday is henry's pass out parade but sadly, i cant attend i will b busy working... =( so sorry. will make up for u k!

Graduation photo *huiling,karin and beattie (san jie,xiao mei and er jie)

This post is definitely another of my sorrowful one. Full of emotions as i typed this. Another of my dearies is gonna leave me now... SAN JIE!!!!

It was 2 and 1/2 years ago that i met the three of them. After first three mths of orientation and stuffs, i came into the class of JJC 05S33. Strangely, i barely know any of them, except jiesheng. I didnt realise that soon friendship will sink in and sweep me off my feet..

Our first few months of encounters were really not as what it always depicts in stories of perfect plot. In fact, i got close with beattie and nianci first. I have to admit initially, i did not really like Huiling. She will just stick to us and without talking much to us. The three of us, nianci, beattie and me did wad we could. We sent beattie to break the news to huiling. I can still remember that when we finally let huiling noe our sentiments, all 3 of us heaved a sigh of relief. However, a weird emotion crept within us. Guilt. We hurt her unknowingly.

Maybe it is really God tat came into the picture that allows us to break free of our initial discomfort zone and gradually got all 4 of us together. Or maybe it was just Nature. But wadeva it is, i am really grateful. If it was for God, i would have lost the chance to allow this sweet girls into my life. Nianci, Huiling and Beattie. My dearies.

JC life is a real emotional roller coaster for me. Someone who wanted so much to break free of her past and to make real friends. I wasnt prepared to lose my heart in this short 2 years. I told myself that no matter wad, i am not gonna let myself go tru another emotional wreck in terms of friendship. No way. I am way too comfortable with my 3 darlings in 4-in-love that i need no other friends in my life. They are all that i need. I was so wrong. Trust me.

I am nt comparing between my group of friends. These 2 grps are with me tru different aspect of my life. Secondary school and JC life. Wads common between them is that i feel safe and loved by every single of them. I lost some in life. My grandpa, my grandma, my relationships, my supposedly friendship with some..Yet, i triumph tru all these. Cos i have these 2 grps of real impt friends in my life. I gained love.

When everything in my life seems to go against the norm, they were with me. The 2 grps of them. In this post, i shall pay tribute to my JC clique instead. ( i did a previous tribute to my 3 darlings..so it's my dearies' time now)

I believe some of u understand the pain i been tru in terms of my family problems. Just when i lost my grandpa in JC1 , my mummy was suspected to be suffering frm cancer, though it wasnt confirmed..i broke down in school that very morning when my mummy told me of the bad news. I told myself that i really need to be strong. I still have my siblings. I cant allow myself to be weak and teary in front of them when they require me at this crucial moment. But my stubborn tears just cant help but threaten to disrupt my composure. Toilet was the best avenue where i can hide it all.

I was so wrong. My 3 dearies saw it all coming. They were with me tru it. every minutes and every seconds. They tolerated my fragility. They accepted my tears. The hugs i receive frm them. The prayers that i have it frm Beattie to calm me down. The pat on my head that huiling unselfishly gave me. The advices and all tat i receive frm every singe of them warm it all.

In terms of relationships, i lost in the arena. I broke up with xiaoming* ( name modified to protect the disclaimer). Despite every hustle and bustle in the relationship with xiaoming*, i was real hurt. I dun care if someone close to him or he himself comes across this post, but i am gonna write wadeva i like here. I dashed into toilets everytime i see him in school. I may act nonchalent but whenever he brushed past me in school, but God knows i tried so hard to hide it all. I have to struggle to blink away the tears every instance. I end up in my all-so-familiar and favourite toilet weeping away.

Everytime without fail, huiling and beattie will be there. I was a real emotional wreck. They did not forsake me in the dark alley of my life. They offered me strength. Neither did impatience caused them to flee frm my side. I took real long to get over the xiaoming* incident. 1.5 year. The longest ever did. Maybe Nianci was not aware of it all. But it doesnt matter. It's all over now. I moved on. Thanks to them.

I have real naggy friends! Huiling, Beattie and Nianci. All 3 of them always nag me to have 3 proper meals. I am always on diet and the 3 of them will just force me to adhere their standard and strict campaign of "Making Shiying eat 3 proper meals". I lost weight after the death of my grandpa, the break up and stress of A levels. But slowly, under the influence of my always hungry 3 dearies, we will end up visiting the school canteen almost once every two break intervals we have from lectures. Esp Beattie. Her favourite fish which is dipped in sweet sweet tomato sauce. Prata for Huiling. As for me, my favourite strawberry yogurt drink or milkshake.

The school's bookshop ( K box) is also one of our favourite hangouts. I simply love the black and white "Hei Bai Pei" that i must have it everyday in school. All my favourites they clearly noe within their heart. We got a pouch that we are supposed to sew it ourselves and see who complete it first. Haha. Even till today, i haven sew it all. Yet, huiling and nianci finished it within a week. All right. My sewing skills sucks. haha. But i really have fun sewing. After all, it is my first time doing such handicrafts, cos previously secondary home econs, i will always cheat by asking my auntie for help. Hehe.

We had outings. But never often, all 4 of us turned up. We are always busy with our individuals' commitment. Oh boy!! Till now, we have not uploaded the neoprints we took when we went out. Huiling cant walk long as her legs and her backbone will hurt. So everytime, we will walk and stop to rest. I didnt mind any single bit. Cos whenever we rest, my legs were super tired by then. I still remembered once when all 4 of us turned up for the date at orchard.We had yummy "dian xing" frm the Food Republic. Real real good food. So is the price. Super ex. Nevertheless, the money was well spent as the quality of the food was comparable to wad i have eaten over in Hong Kong. Thumbs up!!

I still remember on my bdae. I thought they totally forgot abt it all. Somehow, to be honest, i didnt feel really upset. I actually forgot that they did not have a present for me. How muddle-headed am i! One week after my bdae, i receive the present frm them. A musical box! I really feel very very elated. I didnt realise that they actually got me a music box. A few months ago, i was telling them that i will definitely getting my daughter a musical box cos i believe all girls should have one. It is a MUST-HAVE. Imagine when you open it, den got real nice and soothy music sounding in ur eyes. So sweet.

I was real touched that my casual comment landed them to get me the clam-shell musical box. When i opened it, i really felt that i am the luckiest girl in the world, inside, there was a little crown ring and a pair of ear-ring. The little crown ring soon becomes my daily companion. I simply love it to the core! The ear-ring was real familiar looking. Apparently, a few months ago,huiling sent me a catalogue of accessories frm Taiwan. She was really into overseas importing of accessories then. I actually wanted to get 4 pairs of the ear-rings for my 3 darlings in 4-in-love. But due to the hefy shipment fee, i was disheartened.

Now, i am the proud owner of the ear-ring thanks to my 4 dearies. Huiling actually ordered it a month b4 my bdae and as the delievery was delayed, i only got my long-awaited bdae gift one week later. Still, i was real real real touched by them. Even till now, the ring is still neatly tucked on my left hand's second finger.. =)

In school, Beattie and I frequently lost our way. it is always Huiling that is familiar with the shortest route to all the lecture halls. Huiling will be in Lala land whenever the lecturers talk , I will either be joining her or day-dreaming while beattie happily copying notes. We will always go to the library or our favourite bench outside the biology labs to mug. They seldom ask me questions regarding homeowrk cos i always end up giving stupid answers cos i just am not into the situation.haha.

Today, i learnt of a bad news. Huiling is going overseas to study. The instance i receive the msg frm her, my legs went wobbily. I am serious. Thousands of words ran across my brains.. My first reaction was to ask her when she is flying, where she is going, wad course and stuffs. I could hardly wait for her reply. I was real shocked by the sudden sms i receive when i asked if she wanted to go back to collect A levels cert today. Never did i expect that she is gonna reply me saying she is leaving spore for pursuit of studies overseas. I was real taken aback.

Right now, i am still recovering frm the bad news. I miss my 3 dearies!! I must meet huiling before she leaves for Australia. I want to send her personally. To date, i have only sent 2 ppl off. Those real close ones. First Tao Tao, second Bao and now...huiling. Why must this happen again??!!!

I still remember initially in JJC, we were discussing of the prospect of going overseas should we do real bad in our A levels. I was to go to Canada to join my auntie and huiling to Australia. Right now, i need not go overseas, but huiling is... I really feel a sense of loss. i miss her now. Even before she leaves for Australia. How am i not gonna miss her when she is there?? I must get a web-cam real soon!!! It's real hard to reach Huiling when she is in spore cos of our packed schedule, how can i reach her when she is overseas?? I really dread to think of the possibilty of losing contact with her forever. I seriously do not want such of this to occur in my life.

Huiling, if you are reading this, i want you to noe that i really cant bear for you to go Australia for studies. I know it is hard on ur part cos u yourself also feel very reluctant to leave us, if not for the sake of studies. But i really hope that you can take extremely good care of yourself when you are there. I will definitely miss you! Thanks for being there to see me tru my tears and emotions. You have really been someone that i can talk freely and not hide my feelings. I feel at ease with you. Thanks so much for all the comforts you have showered me. The love and the strength i receive frm you will always be etched in our hearts. We love you so much and thanks for leaving such strong impact in my life. I will always regard you as my san jie and most importantly, Friends For Eternity.

Karin your pictures are so COOL... mesmerised by it... haha cos got a few pretty gals lolx... jj

oh btw i have chosen NTU mechanical engineering as my choice. N i m certain that gals r not banned to take engineering and alot of times they can do better than guys. So i m not worried anymore. (hopefully i can do well n dun disgrace myself =P) This afternoon, while having dinner with my clinic colleagues, i was so surprised to learn that 1 of them is a triplet... She has 2 other sisters who has now graduted from NTU n NUS, 1 took up civil engineering while the other, mechanical engineering, and from her story i learn that this 2 siblings had found a job quite soon after they graduated, think it wasn't difficult at all. So the worries tt i had the last few months r unnecessary. yipee!

As for karin, i heard u r gonna accept economics from SMU rite, all the best to u... hahas. its a real good news to her cos the TODAY newspaper had reported that ppl graduating from economics r able to get a high paying job of 3000+... This is like wow... oppx well... compared to the rest of the jobs la, the statign pay is not as appealing.

Oh ya... recently bpp has this new shop as mentioned by Karin named Missy Donut, i see really long Q in front of the shop sia... n so i TOT the donuts r real tasty.. but from wat Karin described, it reminds me of something. That day, i had oso Q for the donuts for awhile, n i realise that after 5 min, the Q simply did not move at all! So i was wondering. N now i know, so its about the speed of the donuts being given out n not the qality of it, that causes such a long Q... Dots... luckiy i gave up Q-ing for he donuts *wink*

Yes. I am turning into a food junkie. *Guilty smile.

My family and i finished these cute looking donuts so fast that i didnt have the chance to take shots at the donuts so i had to take the picture from the net. But still, the ones i ordered looks ezactly like it is as shown above.

Donuts. Donuts. More donuts from the Donut Factory will definitely be on my MUST-HAVE list for a picnic now. I am not kidding. But goodness sake, the donuts are real nice!! I have tried the donuts from Missy Donuts (which is a new outlet open at Bukit Panjang Plaza) but unfortunately it was so so below standard!! Out of 5 stars, i will only give 2. pathetic. maybe cos i didnt try nice favours?

In contrast Donuts Factory's proved to be a heavenly treat for someone who isnt crazy over the circe bread with a whole in the middle. It is not oily. It is light and whats more, the donut dough is so chewy and it's definitely a WOW WOW on my part as i sank my teeth into the freshly baked donuts.

Wait Wait. Before you decide to have a bite, i am sorry to inform you that u will have to patiently queue 3 freaking hours at least to purchase it. Sorry folks,but good stuffs are worth queueing for! I rate the donuts from Donut Factory a whopping 4.5/5 (0.5 marks deducted due to the wait of course)

Gorgeous looking donuts that i will kill to have another bite if i have the time to spare to queue patiently for. By the way, i didnt queue for it. My sis got her friend to do her this BIG favour. 18 Freshly-baked donuts. Muhaha.

So far,i prefer the Apple Cinnamon donut! Mummy went soft after savouring the Blueberry Glazed. Its so so so good...i mean it.

All right. Enuff to tempting you guys. Here's the much awaited details :

Donuts, $10 for a box of 12 glazed donuts, $11 for a box of 12 in assorted flavours, from The Donut Factory, B1-61, Raffles City, tel: 6337-6268. Opening hours: 12.30pm to 10pm daily.

Btw. It is also featured in the ST FoodieClub.
http://www.stomp.com.sg/stfoodiesclub/poshnosh/98/donut.html

Hmm..maybe i should go get some advertising fees frm them real soon.Haha. But i wont mind doing it for FREE should they agree to send me a dozen every month.. awww... *snap. back to reality. if only pigs can fly.

Babes.i am so happy that finally 4 of us are able to contribute at least an entry.(:

Thanks my dear ezanne for getting me the kola bear, chocolates, nougat and the two bottles of honey. I am so gonna put on weight.haha.

Thanks my lovely sista belle for the lao po bing and tai yang bing from Hongkong and Taiwan respective. i am so in love with these goodies right now.Yummy. There goes my diet. *guilt-stricken.

Sunday was a real fulfilling day for me. Got to enjoy nice food with my darlings and gifts from Australia.Gonna post the pics later.

We had super delicious noodles and deserts at the newly open Hong Kong restaurant (Wan Zai) in Lot one. Wan ton mee, shrimp dumpling noodles, Herbal jelly and the super sweet 6 Taste soup (literally translated from chinese)..

The best Wanton mee i ever ate. Worth $5.20. The thick gravy enveloped every strand of the noodle and the wan ton has shrimp in it as well. *saliva drooling once more. I strongly recommend avid food lovers to try it!!

After that, i went to meet my two lovely sistas. As ususal, i was the late one. Haix. Luckily my lovely sistas did not scold me.haha.Mr Roy treated us Coffee bean. Belle got us real nice goodies for Hong Kong and Taiwan!! (**,) Oops..did i mention that i finished every single of it yesterday? barely 16 hrs after i got it frm belle.Haha.

Went shopping arnd West mall with belle as roy makes his move home slowly (Poor roy is injured. Belle and i got a RED HOT bag together. Actually i was peeping at the bag as we were sitting in coffee bean and i fell so in love with it that i decide to make it mine. haha. sounds so cheesy. Found out that the bag was featured in a local fashion magazine at a much higher price. Wow. I had a good deal. i only bought it at $20++ So here we go..me and belle got our first ever RED HOT bag together and i am so happy that belle is going SMU with me!! Hooray!! I will be able to spot her in SMU with the RED HOT bag!! Hehe. All right. i am getting so real excited with the prospect of university life since i still have my sista with me!! Yay!

My RED HOT CHIC BAG. I am so in love with it!

Went arnd shopping again and this time. A watch from City Chain caught my eyes!! I swear that it is the nicest and most chic watch i ever seen. Super tempted to make it mine. Belle was saying " It's reasonable to spend hundred over for a watch since it is smth u wear for life.." It suddenly made me more determined to get the chic watch. It is white and has a little kitten in it. Of course, with pretty shiny bling blings at the side. =P

The first thing i did when i reached home was to tel my mummy abt the watch. SUPRISINGLY, she agreed to me spurgling on it. There goes my $100++ too. But somehow i am not guilty at all. I am too in love with my RED HOT bag and CHIC watch that i dun feel a pinch.Haha. Had to collect my watch on Tues/Wed since the one i wanted has no stock at Bukit Panjang (too lazy to go Lot one or West mall ) Anyway both items i bought all got 20% discount due to the GREAT SINGAPORE SALES. *scream! I LOVE GREAT SINGAPORE SALES!! Bless the intelligent soul who came up with this sales concept thingy. It simply gave us all more reasons to spend without burning a hole in our pockets or chalking up an overdraft in our credit cards at least.

Accompanied mummy also to SK Jewellery shop.Mummy fell in love with the $700++ ring that is so so pretty!! Sparkling and shiny. Now i know why diamonds made one's eye lit up.Haha. Diamonds are forever GIRLS' BEST FRIEND AND COMPANION. Sounds so materialistic.haha. But C'mon admit it, no girls wont bat an eyelid to such heavenly pamperings occasionally. Ya, Mummy also craves for the $550++ CYMA watch that Andy lau's endorses. I noe that you ppl must be saying that this pair of daughter and mom can really spend a bomb in a day.Haha. But think abt it,it has been millions of years ago that we actually spurgle so much in a day or intend to spurgle in a day. So....its still reasonable la.

I hope my parents strike lottery soon so that my mummy can get her Detox medicine ($160), diamond ring ($700++), CYMA's watch ($550++) and a Plasma TV real soon. haha. Unlimited wants and Limited resources. haha. Economics theory. If can, i also want strike lottery, so that i can visit my frien, Edmond in Australia too!! *See bao, i am so good to you. nv forget you lo.haha.

Yo! This is my first post and i pretty "proud" of it,haha...
Today finally met up with 4-in-luv. Its had been quite a long time since we got together, hope all of you like the stuff i gave ur.

Hmm...The australia trip was not really that fun because it was a study trip. We visited the casino, university, wildlife park, honeybee factory, hotels... Listen to them talk for about 1 to 2 hrs. But at least we went to Dreamworld and played the thrilling rides,went shopping and carrying a lot of "barang barang". And of course with the companion of friends where we had fun and laughter.

My holiday break will be 3 weeks and it started yesterday. I don't really feel relaxed at all because i have a lot of projects to do, both school and ccas, haiz...When can i slack? when can i have the chance to sleep for 12 hrs, its had been a long time since i did that. When can i finished meeting up with my friends? I realized that i am like too busy and obsessed with my stuff and neglect my friends. I am really sorry about it. I want to take a long break...... but i wasn't given a chance to do so.Perhaps my time management was not effective enough. I had thought that i just want to be an ordinary person, always have free time to do whatever i want. Maybe after i graduate,i will have the time, quite looking forward to it. Don't ask me what i want to do after i graduate, i have no idea.
