long time. & YCK idol

Been some time since I've posted new entry... think brain kinda turning to mush for a while. It so easy for brains to turn to mush, for muscles to soften, for ice-cream to melt, to go down a slope or mountain, to slide down a slide....
Its always so much easier to deteriorate, almost no effort required. Yet to reverse the harm done or to go upwards is bloddy tough...

Friday
One of my pupils did not come to school And i i can tell you, my karma was improved for the day. Sometimes, when one or two pupils don't come to school, you realise who are the ones who pose the greatest 'problems' or shall i call them CHALLENGES. hah! Went home with Muah that day and was discussing how we'll burn in hell because of some particular pupils... Sigh! Wehave no desire to transform into Wicked Witch(es) of the West, but somehow they have a knack for pressing the buttons... Save us. haha

And was very touched that Friday, realised that I'm still in the running to become the next YCK idol (that's the line for American's Next top Model though) haha!
Actually, brought my little kiddies for combined story telling session with 2 other classes, and when we arrived, the senior pupils started to cheer loudly. Talk about feeling welcomed! And later, when i was supposed to help play keyboard for some parts of the story, they also started chanting "Ms Yu Ms Yu Ms Yu!" One or two pupils even gave me the thumbs up after I finished playing and said "Good eh!" How can you not be grateful? How to not love them?

Well... there's still 21st Anniversary on Saturday... but think i'll stop for now.
Spread the love among the posts. Haha

Mom's question

Mom suddenly asked me
(translated from Chinese, haha)
Mom:"Why is it that he seldom come to our place?"
Me: "He lives so far away! And he is very busy. I hardly see him also"
Mom: "Busy huh, how many tuition he has?"
Me: "4 times a week loh. And he always OT OT"
Mom: "Wah, so many"
Me: "Anyway, even when he comes, 2 of you will go hiding..."
Opps.

Sometimes I'm just too passive when i should speak.
Othertimes, I can be such a tactless motormouth...

Perhaps Mom is beginning to wonder if he exists... Perhaps she thinks that he's a fake.
Well, you never know...maybe he is. *wink*

Impossibility

After almost breaking my stumpy feet, crumbling my big bones, and violently shaking my flobby flabs, I still am unable to finish jogging 5km in 30mins. Nowhere near. Took only a touching, heartwrenching record time of 40 minutes.

Thanks alot.

Anyway... I do work very hard! So next time when u see me and my enlarged profile, try not to blurt out that I am FAT k. haha
Perhaps you can say that I am such an avid sportswomen that I've developed alot of muscles recently. Don't mention the new muscles on my face though. HA HA HA

Sugar, Savoury or Spice.

Really been posting quite a lot recently. ANd it probably means that... i am in the midst of doing lesson plan. Can write only a few lines of lesson and dozens here. Guess human beings (in particular: ME) are just so shallow and self-centred. So easy to talk and ramble on about yourself. So difficult to focus on work. Perhaps its just me huh... I must admit that i do get excited and happy when i think of brillant ideas for my lessons. But getting started is quite a huge barrier. TRY TRY TRy!
Okie... some updates first...

Saturday
Was at home in the morning, trying to clear the physical mess in my room. I assure you that it is still messy. I just shifted some papers around, packed my letters abit, rearranged the containers... full-stop. And there are little ants in my room...YIKES> Didn't used to have them b4 although i used to drink beverages & biscuits in my room (I think its because my tastebuds have changed. I used to enjoy savoury stuff more. Ever since mid-autumn festival last year, I've developed a sweet tooth. Sigh... perhaps that's why i ballooned so fast also. SUGAR! Think i should try to convince my tastebuds to embrace Arnott's Shapes again...)

Then went to the gym in the afternoon- Dynamic Yoga and Combat. ( Had wanted to cancel to meet hui... so MR> what's up? Remember to update me ya? ) Anywayz... energy level a bit low... struggling to keep alive, especially during combat class haha. But still fat. So. What must i do to lose weight?!

Anywayz, went to JE to meet D after gym. There was this NS40 exhibition, we went to walk walk for a while coz D (another D- let's call him dan) was supposed to be on duty. Didn't see him anywhere coz he happened to have gone for dinner haha. Bumped into another D however (rem Des who works at MINDEF and prob don't appreciate me doubting the DXO recruitment thingy? haha) Anywayz, although both D & Des are/were S's volunteer, they have never met each other. So introduced them. Later Des, being the kay-poh and caring uncle he's always been to me sms-ed me "Nice taste, any chance to hold hands?" haha! Showed D the sms & he frowned "What do you mean nice taste?!" A compliment, funny silly D!

Dinner> went Delifrance, realised that the dinner menu looks pathetic, so went to ZingDo (Korean hotplate place) to pai1 cang1 ying2. - far from crowded although its dinner time... Wah, really ate alot loh. D had Kimchi seafood noodles, and i ordered some chicken mixed rice thingy. In addition to that, ordered chicken ginseng soup, which comes with another bowl of rice...The thing is, both D & I want to jian2 fei2... so hmmm, I'm sure that meal didn't help us both very much. And had this devastating conversation about whether running helps to jian3 fei2-
Me: Does running help to lose weight huh?
D: Yes, of coz, if you run 5km in about 30mins.
Me: HUH?!
D: Yah, only after that will your body start to burn fats. B4 that its using up carbos.

What ?! i am strugggling to run 4km within 30mins k... 5km... siao right. haha. I'll be fat forever. Anywayz... apparently the good news is, slow jog for an hour or so helps also la... but ahem.

Went back to the NS40 exhibition coz we were such fans of civil service! Yeah right. Decided to try our luck at finding Dan again la. (and also to work off a little food b4 coffee haa!) So walked around abit more to finally spot our Mr Ambassador. Walked around again. Actually quite interesting la. Left the place, went to have a cuppa at Delifrance. Go home!

Sunday
Veged out at home again...as usual... tried to do lesson plan, tried to keep my room sugar free...
Then went to have dinner @ JP swensens to celebrate mom's bday. Plan to jian3 fei2 foiled again...
Had salmon mushroom baked rice (i like =))- double chin.
Sis had chicken baked rice, mom ordered some fish dish & dad had cheesy chicken. Mom wanted ice-cream, so had this really chocolatey one. Glad that both of them enjoyed the meal alot. Guess we seldom bring them out for good food so... yep, if only they could decide where to go, we should do it more often haha

Went walking around and bought these really nice and cheap baskets for my class. Got some nice crackers and mashmallows for my kiddies too, hope they'll be enticed haha. (actually they are very easily contented la... have been offering them the same kind of gummy sweet, and they still lap it up every day...) Also went liberty market to buy some "healthy snacks". Got tomatoes and lotsa cereal (yum yum.. figured that i might as well eat healthier carbo if i MUSt eat carbo.)

A parent called me to inform that that she'll bring her child late to school tmr. And asking her how she is and stuff (She was watching Mr Bean vcd.. hah so cute. Mr Bean cartoon is quite funny btw haha!) Had this discussion with her about toilet-training her girl. Quite difficult la, coz apparently her girl will turn up her nose at dirty toilets... hmm i'm not sure whether our school's toilets are up to her standard haha! Anywayz... think i'm mentioning this because i actually feel good after talking to her. Didn't communicate very much with parents this term because i was so darn busy with NIE and also i just had inertia calling them. Fortunately, many parents are also very forgiving and understanding... they were still open about talking and discussing their children with this absent teacher...
Another reason for bringing this up... why am i always NOT doing the things that i know will make me feel good?

Now typing this out while watching the clock tick away. Lesson plan still not finished! (oops) & think I am gonna go jog abit... not alot lah, just about 5km in 30mins.
RIGHT.

Long post ya. See, see! How self-absorbed i am.

Back to swim

TGIF.
And i seem to have alot of thoughts.
Whatsup man. If only I am willing to think so much about my lesson plans and kiddies.

I went to swim just now.
Haha. Yeah, i knew i said it'll make me a hunchback and fat.
But sorta tired of land activities. Still find my arms damn disgusting. I tried very very hard not to use my arms much... only moved them gently when i need to breathe. Otherwise, just kicked loh. Didn't do much also... just 17laps breaststroke, 3 freestyle (think my freestyle is crappy... and was bloody struggling to complete just 1 lap.) Still... can overtake those uncles, hope they don't feel too sad. hahaha

Yah lah... think swimming really make arms bigger la.
ALTHOUGH i am fat to begin with, swimming aggravates. HOR?
So i am REALLY not gonna swim liaoz...

Work

More thoughts when passing by the hawker centre near my place.

Its almost 10, but some vendors are still hanging around. This man was having his meal... this old couple was still at their stall, probably preparing for the next day. The shops nearby are packing and keeping their stuff. Was thinking about the people making cups and cups of kopi and teh every single day. Do they make each cup and wonder if it tastes good? Do people at the Malay stall feel happier when they fried an exceptionally lovely batch of goreng pisang that day? What is it that keep the hawkers going every single day? Money? Earning a living? Or immense pride in what they are cooking up each day?

There is a mattress shop, furniture shop and Good price shop around the area and i have passed by these places just before the shutters are down. Do you know how much stuff they bring out and keep every single day?!
Must be so tiring to have to bring everything out when they open in the mornings and squeeze everything back at the end of the day!

Should we feel guilty that we are always complaining about our work? How stressful our work is, how difficult our bosses/clients are? Surely... doing all these are more mundane and tiring? Do they have a choice? Do we have a choice? We do , most of the time ya...?

It is easy to say that we should always count our blessings. How easy is it for us to achieve that? Brings me to think about the sms-es on Monday. Was semi-complaining to D that Mondays are dreary. His reply was "Should we say: We're grateful that we are employed!"

Erm.

Have you ever...

Was walking home from the mrt station when i passed by a group of old uncles and aunties with their luggage at a void deck. They looked pretty happy and excited.
In my mind, i was thinking- "Hey, going gai gai issit? Enjoy your trip!"
Granted, I don't them. But at that point in time, i genuinely hope that they'll have a great holiday.

Have you ever "talked" to complete strangers in public?
Sometimes, when i go jogging and see some people (usually ladies) huffing and puffing, i'd be thinking "Keep going! Don't stop!"

Or when some people do disgusting stuff, i'd be going (in my mind, of course) "Stop that, you disgusting fella!"

Very often, when I meet with inconsiderate people (esp on public transport) i'll be repeating in my mind " You are so RUDE. SO RUDE SO RUDE" (some drivers suffer from road rage, this commuter suffer from PTR-Public Transport Rage)

Or have you ever wished that you could talk to these strangers? (without them thinking that you are an oddball)

For instance, you are shopping for clothes. You see this lady coming out of the dressing room, twirling around, trying to decide whether to buy a piece of clothing. Don't you just wish that you could just offer your opinion "You look good in it, you should buy it" Or perhaps "You look like crap, don't buy! The salesgirl is lying!"

Guess with so many people in this community, (IMAGINE, the govt said we can contain 6million. YEAH RIGHT) It will be pretty chaotic and noisy if every one literally speaks his/her mind all the time.

But i still think that we should accept strangers' comments or be allowed to comment in the dressing room. Especially when you are shopping alone. Don't trust the salesgirls!

Taking care

I think i don't know how to take care of another human being. Including those little ones in my class and also the senior ones at home. Nor do i know how to take care of my contemporaries. I don't seem to know how to take care of animals too.
Bought little fishes for my classroom last year to teach my kids. But somehow, they are seriously 'tortured' by me. My colleague cared more about my fishes than me. She brought filter from her home, teach me how to use it, and pops by to check the tank. CLassic: There was once, we had a 4-day holiday (including weekend) She was so worried for them that she actually climbed the school gate, rescued my fishes and brought them home so that they would be fed and taken care of during that period. She has such a kind heart! I felt so guilty for being a heartless owner... but somehow it didn't come naturally for me to think about them... Really bloody heartless.

Must I wait till I have my little own human being before knowing how to genuinely take care of one and shower him/her with unconditional love? Or perhaps HORROR- even if i have my own kiddy (quite unlikely... haah) I'll still be a selfish brat. A self-centred person who have to make a conscious effort to care.
Is the capacity to take care and love someone innate in us, or must it be learnt? The scary question for myself is however... CAN it be learnt?

Mess & FAT confession.

My room is in sucha mess...
My admin work is in sucha mess...

So much inertia to clean up...
URGH ...

At least did some cleaning in class today after school... PHEW. Felt so much better after that. Didn't realise that physical mess leads to inner mess as well...

Been very grouchy today as the weather is so hot and i'm in a mess. Hope that i can be in a better mood tmr now that my classroom is slightly less cluttered.

Guess when one is a fatso, one is more inclined to feel hot. And grumpy. Grrr...

Saw a swimming pool on the way home just now, and i began to think... maybe i shouldn't have blamed swimming for causing my arms to be blobby.

I've got huge arms and ugly fudgy back because i am FAT.

FAT FAT FAT.

Hi folks! I am fatso Michelin. Minus the smile.

Grrr!!!

Holiday?!

Where should i go during June holidays?

=/

Have to think of $, time, place.

Bleh.

Lazy Weekend & Fat Conversations

Yet another lazy weekend.
Supposed to have done lotsa work yesterday BEFORE i hit the gym. But as usual, lazed around so much and procrastinated so gorgeously that i almost missed my dynamic yoga class. Glad i made it though... 2 classes of workout- very much needed to lose weight!

And yes. I have grown so fat. *tsk tsk* One morning session colleague was staring at me

FAT CONVERSATION 1 (With K in School)
Me: Hey, long time no see
K: Hey, what happened to you huh?
Me: Yeah. Very fat now hor.
K: Yah loh, gained weight leh.
Me: YES! Obvious right.
K: Yah, put on quite a lot of weight ya. Aiyo, why huh...
.
.
.
FAT CONVERSATION 2 (With Siang, SF, S in school)
Me: (to Siang) Hey, I don't think i wanna go for Spageddies liao. I wanna jian fei
Siang: Huh. But i also need to lose weight ... eat a lot these days...
S: Yah loh, yah loh, I also gained a lot of weight leh. See my tummy

(SF happened to walk by and she joined our group)

SF: Siang, I'm not going to Spageddies. I wanna lose weight.
Me: Haha! I just told her the same thing...
.
.
.
Opps. Digressed.
Anyhow, felt a bit sore after 2 hrs of exercise and decided to leave although we haven't finished with the push-ups. (I give up!) Happened to catch M's eye and he smiled when i left. Perhaps he's thinking i probably should stay to work off the extra flabs. Wahaha

I have also gone swimming twice for the past 2 weeks and i wonder... is it causing my arms to be BIG?!

FAT CONVERSATION 3 (with D over dinner)
Me: Went swimming again the other day
D: That's nice.
Me: But I dunno whether I should be swimming leh...
D: Why leh?
Me: Feel that its making my arms and shoulders bigger...
D: Will meh? How many laps do you usually swim?
Me: At least 20 ba...
D: Then shouldn't be a problem... just swim leisurely loh... its not like you're training for competition or anything...
Me: Yah, i don't swim that fast also... but still feel will get broader...
.
.
.

FAT CONVERSATION 4 (with C in Staff Room)
Me: Hey, I'm going swim. Wanna go?
C: (hesitates) I wanna lose weight, but dunno whether to swim leh.
Me: Ya... sometimes wonder if swimming gives you broad shoulders and fat arms!
C: Ya! If i've known that, I wouldn't have swam when i was younger. Cannot be like those girls with narrow shoulders anymore...
Me: (sorrowfully) Yeah.. and i'm top heavy too...
C: Plus we're short somemore... looks weird ...
.
.
.

Its kinda unhealthy to have yoyo weight huh... Its SO easy to gain weight but its so darn bloody difficult to lose it. Sian man!

Anywayz... should haven't finished my lazy weekend story haha
After gym, went to Marina Square to meet D who was having dim sum with his colleagues. I was asked to join them actually, but decided that i shouldn't be eating so much, so headed for gym =p They left some food for me though, so had to eat la...
Left soon after with D as we were supposed to go to his aunt's place for dinner. We took a cab the apartment, which was very nicely decorated- zen and resort-like. Unfortunately, gonna be torn down soon (en bloc)
While we were eating, D's little nephew (this cute little fella with chiseled cheeks who looks like a cross between Harry Potter and Chicken Little ) kept on asking him to play with him.

UNFAT CONVERSATION 1
Han: Ah Gu, play with me. (Ah Gu, as in 'uncle' not cow haha!)
D: Wait k, i'm still eating
(H Runs away and runs back)
Han: Ah Gu, will you play with me?
D: Let me finish eating first k
(repeated for many many times...)
Han: But you must play with me, you're my favourite Ah Gu!

What a sweet-talker ya.. haha! And he repeated that quite a few times... Guess because he's the only young one in the family, he gets lotsa attention.
Anyhow, as D had to entertain his fav nephew, I had a chat with his youngest sis. And somehow, we had yet another....

FAT CONVERSATION 5 (with HZ)
HZ: When I'm stressed i tend to eat more
Me: Ya, same here. Some people get skinnier when they are stressed
HZ: But I'll gain weight during exam period loh
Me: Precisely... me too...
.
.
.
Well... kinda obsessed with FATS recently ya... but its really hard not to think about it when clothes are becoming skintight k

To end off...

FAT CONVERSATION 0.5 (with muah, quite some time ago...)
Muah: WL, you put on weight hor
Me: Yah loh... quite a lot leh...
Muah: That pants used to be quite loose on you right?
Me: Yes! Now very tight... can hardly walk haha
.
.
.

SIGH.
Btw... after asking Dad during jogging just now, I'm quite convinced that swimming is gonna make me bulky. Hence to prevent myself from being Singapore's Notre Dame... I'm not doing swims anymore.
hohoho.

Disturbing...

Saw this advert while waiting for the bus yesterday:

"Minds once broadened, can never retain their original confines"

Its actually for MINDEF recruitment for Defense Executive Officers.

Is it me or is that quote disturbing? I can't put a finger on what's wrong.... but somehow the second part of the sentence sounds so odd... does anyone retain confines? Shouldn't it be in the passive form: "be retained in original confines" ?

Was so puzzled that I actually sms-ed Des (because he's working there) to ask him to explain the quote.
He said something along that line : that minds would not be naive once they are exposed to new things/information

I replied that i just had to ask him coz it sounded so weird. Think he didn't really appreciate me saying that, but well...

The person who came up with that line is probably feeling so proud of himself/herself. Afterall it did sound kinda bombastic ya? haha! (i hope Des was not the one who came up with it!!!)

ANyWayz ... its really nothing important... i'm so duh...

Power of the Gaze

Was on the cab the other day and happened to spot a person at the bus-stop.
He had this weird afro hair on his extremely chinese head.
Somehow, coincidentally we caught each other's eye. He was looking back at me (although my cab was travelling)
At that point of time, i was wondering: What could he be thinking when he saw me looking at him?
Was he thinking "Hey, i know my hair is real cool. I can see that it caught your attention."
Or could he be thinking "Jeez, i know its a bad hair day", then start soothing his hair down... ?

For plain-looking people like myself, when i happen to see someone's gaze on me, most of the time i'll be thinking "Is there something on my face?" or maybe "What?! Is my top very ugly?"

What about those I'm-gorgeous-and-I-know-it-and-I-know-you-think-i'm gorgeous too- type? What's going on in their minds? Are they swooning over the gazes they are receiving?

Then again, sometimes a person's gaze just falls on another human being simply because there is no other place to fix the eye.

Port Dickson-Pretty much a road trip

I'm Back!
Quite bushed after 3 days of "holiday"
This short trip consisted of E & ZK, D & myself

Friday
We set off at about 9am towards Tuas Checkpoint. JAM. For almost an hour...
Zoomed off when we reached the expressway
Finally reached Port Dickson at around 4plus. After putting down our stuff, we're off again...looking for the TOWN of Port Dickson... It was definitely no Orchard Road... We then went to the supermarket to grab some stuff.

We had dinner at Mexican restaurant near our resort. Tried sthing called Fajita which is more or less making my own Pita (poh pia) Taste pretty good, i must say.

Mexican Restaurant

Went back to the resort after dinner and had wanted to go to the pool... but it closes at 7pm! Duh... So went dip water in the sea instead. The sky was absolutely gorgeous- so many stars! Nice, bright and clear and dotted across the entire sky. This could never happen at beaches in Singapore coz its far too bright here...

Went back- had red wine and some snacks.


Saturday
Woke up at 5.56am according to my hp.. *yawn* All the rest are still asleep and I simply couldn't sleep anymore..
So took camera and decided to try snapping some pictures ...

Moon at 6.00 am and Moon again at at 6.30am

(gave up trying to upload more photos....)

D woke up at 7 plus. At least I have company! Haha... watched cartoon for a while and went for bfast at about 9. Watched this really stupid show called "Evil Woman" on TV. Had wanted to go for a morning swim, but pool too crowded la. Went for buffet breakfast, but it was nothing compared to those international ones we expect in other beach resorts. They didn't even asked for our breakfast coupons. We had to ASK to pay... gosh. We were just too honest haha. D and I then took a short walk around the condo.. and sea... nothing very much really... Sand was pretty coarse and there was not much of a view.

We just stoned and watched TV (boring) while waiting for the other 2 to wake up, which was 12pm ... by then me and D were starting to fall zZzz ...

Plans for the day- HUNT for Pedas Hot Spring which is probably about 30km or further away from our resort. Not knowing the way, we just drove around,asking for directions.
Was on the road for about 4-5 hrs ... and we still didn't find the hot spring
Finally, we found this "re shui hu" (hot water bottle..according to one of the person we asked for direction...)... Its actually just a fishpond-like thingy. Water is ReALLY hot. But its still a far cray from the nature, waterfall-like hot spring we were imagining...

pathetic "hot spring"

beautiful landscape

Went back to resort to wait for sunset... (still no swim, in case we missed sunset..) actually could have gone la.. coz we waited for quite a while. Anywayz, some pretty nice pictures taken. But was abit freaked out when my Ixus went dead after taking the sun pictures. Everything was bLACK. No matter which ISO or mode i used... thought dieded liao.. like my camera offended the sun or sthing...

Anywayz, some shots on how the salted egg yolk disappeared...

At nite, we had dinner at this TOM YAM place. Nicest soup i have drank in a long time... not those sweet kind of soup we have in Singapore. Sour and spicy, just nice. And they fried Kailan in salted fish. YUMMY! The beehoon goreng and kway teow were pretty nice too. All for 34RM divided by 4... its only abt 17 Sing dollars for 4 persons.
Went to stall next door to buy fruits. Bought this HUGE halved watermelon. Plus some logans.
Returned to resort and tried to do some work on my laptop. But was snoozing in front of it by 11 plus.

CONCUSSED.

Sunday
Wakey early again at 7 or so... went to make myself coffee and did a little bit of work. FOrtunately D woke up at 8 plus. So had company again. Watched a series of cartoons (finally some decent ones...) Oggy and the Cockroachs, Mr Bean and Ne Zha in MALAY. E and ZK woke up at ard 11 plus. Slightly earlier haha!
We drove to Melaka which was about 86km away when we started... D took the wheels all the way there... must be really tiring...
We had intended to eat chicken rice but Had Ba Kut Teh there instead(Hokkien style) It tasted slightly herbal. A little funny...

Heading Back to Singapore... and to our horror JAM even before we reached expressway.
We were stuck for almost an hour... D who still was driving had to accelerate and brake repeatedly... felt bad that i couldn't help to drive despite having a license, skills far to rusty! Realised later that the jam was not due to expressway. traffic lights spoilt! JEEZ!

Smooth on expressway. But really had trouble trying to keep awake while watching the straight road ahead... D drove almost 200km non-stop. Zzzz

Finally reached Tuas at about 9pm... Luckily there was no jam, hence went through customs quickly

D drove back to my place. And then had dinner with me while E & ZK drove back first...
Nice little chat over "dinner" at the prata place. Though i was also grousing over the yaya-papaya pple at the prata place... GrRrrR

I commented "Hope u come back spotting a nice tan!" She'll be really disapointed haha.

New Life?

By the time this entry is up, it would have broken the record for last year (2006)
Its only April and I already have more posts than the whole of last year. Ho ho ho
Getting more talkative or what?
Hoping and crossing my fingers that this is a good sign, that at least for this year, it can continue to be a good one!

And today shall officially be the day- NIE is OVER. FInished. Period.
So if I pass every single shitty assignment and quiz, I'm done with full-time work and part-time studies!*Applause*

Somehow both I & R were feeling kind of depressed after our very last lecture yesterday. They did enjoy DISE... For myself, I wouldn't say that attending lectures and hanging out with these people were without pleasure... but more relief than sadness felt, definitely. We did make plans to meet up, just have dinner and chit-chat once in a while. Hope it won't be the kind friendship which just drifts, fades and disappears...

Is this a beginning to my NEW life after 2 years? haha

But think i need to spot a new attitude first... to utilise the "extra" time on my hands.

Still haven't finished updating Port Dickson Trip...
and still coming up with my new list of "To-dos" after NIE... haah

Whoop. Yippeee!

Mad Rush

GoSH
This week has been sucha sinful one...
I'm going away for the weekned in 1.5 hrs and i haven't packed!
Went for Dinner with J and LH, only got to know that we're leaving at 8am last night (at 10pm!)
By the time i got home, was so ragged that i was sleeping on my sis' bedroom floor.
ANd can you believe it... it was showing "The Importance of Being Earnest" on Channel 5!!! BUT. I was simply too tired to enjoy the dialogue. =/ So went to sleep instead. Sigh! Maybe i should casually mention some show i wanna watch again, maybe Channel 5 can so hear it.

Trying to dload all the files needed so that i can at least get some stuff done over the weekend... though its supposed to be the holidays... can't just dump work aside...nOT that i will get lots done... more of a security and guilt thing... and knowing me, i'll return and concuss again on Sunday...
(had 40% quiz yesterday.. and think i studied only for less than 1 hr...)
The sky can fall and i can sleep. Not sure whether its a blessing or curse.

ANywayz.. gotta go, may everyone have a great long weekend!

Yum Yum

Although it's supposed to be a BUSY BUSY WEEK... I've been naughty =/
ANd here I am, wanting to write them down first... Shall make it quick...

Monday
Went shopping with Sis on Monday at Suntec & we kinda swiped our cards more often that we've envisaged...but well, we do NEED some of those things. Swimsuit for example... my old one was falling apart mah!
Had Kenny Rogers. Loved the macaroni and cheese + the corn muffin.
ANywayz, SHE was saying that we should go out shopping like once every 2 months and i was like... y.u.p... we'll see about that.. i'm not sure if my card can stand the pressure haha!

Tuesday
D suggested going for dessert at this dessert place called Canele near Mohd Sultan Road because one of his friends is a pastry chef there. (Apparently, its the first dessert branch from the Le Amis Group) Small nice place (though COLD!) with lotsa yummy cakes and dessert. They also make their own ice-cream.
We had, with recommendations chosen 2 cakes...
Coffe Noir, a macha cake with almond. D also ordered some sandwiches (just with eggs and ham but they tasted so darn good!) His friend made us crepes with earl grey ice-cream. Later, we were treated with another chocolate cake because it was not sliced nicely in the kitchen haha! Unfortunately, couldn't make they sound as divine as they tasted... cos I'm just no foodie! And i have forgotten to take photos! =(
First time to a finer dessert place and I couldn't remember to take some pictures. Sigh. There goes my thousand words.
Btw, both of us were so sua ku. When the sandwich came, we were going: How to eat huh. Same reaction when the crepe came. Well, we're so not made up of high life. Think we had better stick to hawker centres haha

After 'dessert', we were looking for a place to have a cuppa. Ended up at Clarke Quay. Was reminded that the last time I was there was actually one whole year plus ago... to celebrate hui's bday?

Blurred our faces in case you ladies din wanna be published...

MONDAYs, very the BLUE

SIGH.
Its Monday again... and I'm so dreading it...
Although its actually quite a moderate day in school for me coz there's Computer and P.E, I still hate Mondays!
Somehow, D seems to be the only one working person i know who has no problems with Mondays. Was slightly motivated for a while.. yeah, for about 10 minutes? Sigh!

In my opinion, we should only have 4 working days each week.
People, quality, not quantity!
