Post title : Enjoying time before exams~!
♥ You'll never know the real me.
My recess week is here! dunno whether i shld welcome it in fear or in excitement..obviously e recess week is meant for us to study and prepare for our coming exams,yet till now i used it to enjoy-going out,watching dramas,playing more fb games and updating my blog now..haha! but actually i felt abit guilty now,and also quite scared coz it's jux less than a week to my 1st paper! i tink i really deserve a slap for being so slack! (eh..sounds quite rthyming wor) but i know if i study at this hour(and when e paper is still more than 3 days away),"zhou gong' can easily come and find me to play chess with him..sianz..tell me wat to do man..
For e last few days,i was out e whole day for almost everyday..Last thurs was my last day of sch..got my bahasa indo oral on tt day..once again,i tink i screwed up e oral..there's 2 sections to e oral-1 is dialogue which me and pat(my partner for e oral) muz come up with a short 3 min convo which we were given 10 mins before e oral exam,and e other was tt each of us had to choose betweeen a topic or a picture and we had to talk abt it individually for 2 mins..our dialogue was ok,but our solo part was quite bad..gt stunned by e pic we chose..really reminded me of e olden sch days when we also had oral for our language..looks like my weakness for oral was still e pict part..haiz.shld had chose topic instead,regretted choosing pic..
Anw,after our oral,we went to hav crystal jade buffet with ah man and rainbow! it's our only consolation for e day..haha..it's a steamboat buffet but with free flow of 小笼包~! love 小笼包 to bits! e buffet started at 5 but we only reached there at 530 coz we gt to wait for rainbow to finish her oral at 5..e famished us immediately ordered lots of food upon settling down..lolx..pat and me,needless to say,we ate e most..but this time ah man and rainbow ate alot too..other than e dishes for e steamboat,we conquered 4 plates of 炸馒头(1 plate gt 4 buns) and 8 笼 of 小笼包(each gt 5 小笼包)! haha..but at e end we ate until each of us gt sick of some of e food..tink we ate too much le..haha..
炸馒头～
Food~!
The "cha sau bao" look alike big bun
These xiao long baos were super delicious can~!
Rainbow's "sian" face after eating N no of shui jiaos..classic!
On fri i went shopping with pat..decided to go vivo since it's been some time since we last went..and i gt to find pink clothes for amanda's party coz i gt none! and her theme for e party is pink..im rather amazed tt i gt no pink clothes at all..there's nt much to buy over there..wanted to try some tops from forever21,but i gave up coz e queue was surprisingly long..in e end i only managed to buy some tank tops from mango and a pink top from kitchen..in a way i shld be quite happy coz i din spend alot this time..haha..
On sat met up with pat and rainbow to discuss our assignment for cm3242..went to ngee ann poly to do instead of sch coz i tink it's more convenient when i go to amanda's party later in e evening..and there are more benches and sockets over there..wanna take bus 75 to np,but i tink i was too preoccupied with my thots when walking to e bus stop,i din realise i took e wrong dirn until it's near e last bus stop at marina sq! i quickly walked to e opposite bus stop which was at e esplanade and it's very far away..while i was walking i realised i forgot to scan my ez-link when alighting..craps! luckily i din wait for long before e bus arrived,but when boarding i realised i was taking e same bus tt i alighted jux now..=.= so it was another 50 mins ride to np..by e time i reached there it's almost 2..
Initially planned to meet up with e gals at clementi mrt at 545 before gg to amanda's party together..but i was too busy discussing with them till i nearly forgot e time,and we werent really done yet..so in e end i decided to go alone later..by e time i reached amanda's party venue at west coast it's abt 7 already..e function room was really overwhelmed with pink..among our gals only sze din wear pink coz she's e only 1 who hates pink to e core..haha..e buffet manda ordered was from "neo garden" which i liked..ate quite alot coz i was quite hungry and i really liked e food from this caterer..tink others also gt quite a few rounds too..haha..
Before and after e cake cutting,lim hwee gave us a simple puzzle for us to solve..abit hard to explain e rules here(even lim hwee himself gt abit difficulties when explaining all e rules)..i guess e solving part and showing our solutions to him was e funniest..really laughed until my mouth ache at tt time lorz..lolx..we left e place at ard 10 plus..su sian drove me to je mrt station den drove e rest of e gals home coz they all lived in e west area..
On sunday other than gg out for breakfast with my family,i stayed at hm e whole day..but e whole afternn i was completing my assignment while watching korean dramas..haha! tt night my sis came back from malacca..and she bought some "土產" from there-"碰饼", 核桃饼and 淡汶饼(one of my fav 土產!)..it's really very fresh and delicious! (no pics here,in case u all drool saliva too..lolx!)
Yesterday my sis went for facial at e beauty salon which i sometimes visit at far east..me and my mum tagged along since she dunno where it was,and she wanted to look for clothes for her bestie's wedding..she was 1 of e "jie meis' for her fren's wedding,and their colour theme is champagne gold..we shopped ard while waiting for her..but there wasnt much to shop coz quite alot of shops opened late..only managed to buy a pair of sandals..by e time my sis was done it's abt 1 plus,had lunch at ramen ten before we shopped 1 more rd again..wanted to buy a blazer which i saw 2 saturdays ago,but when i tried my luck ydae,it's sold out! so sad can! shldnt hav hestitate when i 1st saw and fell in love with it..argh~! after another rd of walking,i bought a bag and some accessories..my sis din manage to find any nice champagne gold top or dress..so we went to Tangs and wisma to try our luck but failed..den we went to MS and citilink to try but oso nth much there..decided to stop for e day coz our legs were breaking soon,and sis gt to meet her fren for dinner..
Ok..tink i better stop here..before i start my studying proper,maybe i shld 1st pack my messy table! my notes are spread all over e table..lolx..till next time den~! =)

Post title : I love perms~!
♥ You'll never know the real me.
Yesterday was a very hectic day..and a day with a big headache..got my practical exam and basasa indo test ydae..my prac exam was in e morning..e 1st part of e exam was e prac quiz,which i tink i screwed up,coz my analytical chem was very weak,and i got so many qns to ans within 30 mins..it's really mission impossible for me..dun even hav time to tink of e ans le,not to say to finish writing e long long explanations..next came e prac test..e experiment was exactly e same as e 1 we did during year 2,but tt exp was 1 of my weakest,coz i dun really like to pack ion-exchange columns..haiz..nvm..at least i tink e raw data i obtained wasnt too far from my frenz..so shld be fine..only e answering theory qns part,i guessed it's "xiong duo ji shao"..
Next came e bahasa indo test..it started at 6pm so me and pat still gt time to hav late lunch and study abit more..but at tt period of time we already had a headache..maybe we used too much of our brain cells on e prac test le..in e end i tink i din do well for e test..my head really couldnt tink well and it seems like i had forgotten e stuff i studied e night before..Sianz ahhh~! Thurs still got oral..hope it will go fine and smooth..
Ok..shall stop talking abt sch stuff..last sat went for a haircut at a salon..went with xuemei coz she wanted to rebond her hair..met for lunch at far east..den we shopped ard 1st,coz i gt to find pink clothes for e coming amanda's 21st..realised i din even hav 1 piece of pink clothes..but cant find any nice ones..so we went to e salon after tt..initially i only went to trim my hair..jux when me and my hairdresser was talking abt how little my hair was,and i said i wanna perm next time,he suggested helping me to do temporary perms to let me get e feeling of perming..lolx! and it's FOC!
And so tt's how i look after e perm..
So does perming looks nice on me?haha..of coz i know temp perms and permanent perms look diff..but at least can agar see how my hair will look like after "volumising"..haha..so do i look more mature? should i perm next time?haha..i felt so damn happy after seeing my hair "grows" lorz..
Anw,tt day we were e last customers to leave again..coz xm's rebonding and colouring really need alot of time..in e end we only left e salon at 10 plus..had late dinner (or rather supper) at pastamania..were quite surprised tt it was still open at this hour..coz we were quite hungry,we ordered 1 plate of pasta each..but i certainly felt super sinful after eating! lolx..

Post title : Lucky day!
♥ You'll never know the real me.
Dun really like to backlog,but i really wanna blog something which im truly amazed with~!
On e 25th tt sun went to chijmes with dennes and grace to watch e big match between liverpool and man u..initially was hesitating whether to go coz e match would end at 12am and i got class at 8am e next morning..but in e end i still went coz i really missed e atmosphere over there! anw,we went there at 8 plus to hav dinner 1st and at e same time "chop" e seats early before it got more and more crowded..settled down at a restaurant called "ace"..sells indian food..i myself doesnt really like indian food,but surprisingly e food there wasnt too bad,jux tt it's a lil bit salty,but e taste was alright..this restaurant got a very simple game called "pick-a-card"..this is how e game goes-u pick a card from 3 decks of poker cards which were already placed nicely in a long box(those tt we see in casinos,but i dunno wat it's called) by them,watever card u draw is e price u gg to pay for any drink u ordered..let's say u ordered a drink which cost $12,when u draw a 4 of any suit,u jux nd to pay $4 for tt drink which originally cost $12..if u draw an ace,e drink will be on e house,but if u draw a pic card,den u will pay e original price listed on their menu..interesting right..haha..
So we decided to try..for me,i ordered a vodka lime cost $12..beofre i drew a card i already knew i wun be tt lucky..HAHA..unexpectedly i actually drew a 4! where can i gt a cup of vodka lime for jux $4?wahaha..was quite happy with myself..after awhile me and dennes wanted to try our luck again,so i ordered a fruit punch oso cost $12..i thot most prob this time i wun be tt lucky again..surprisingly,i actually drew an ace,which means i gt e drink for free! hahaha..i paid only $4 for 2 drinks which originally cost me $24..woo hoo~!
Pardon me yea...coz i rarely got a day which i felt soooo uber lucky..tt day was really really my lucky day~! =D
ok..back to recent events..jux last sat evening went for my sis's family day at her colleague's condo..it's not exactly like those family days tt a company would encourage e whole co pple to bring their family and children along,but it's simply a small gathering organised within her department..and e most impt thing-there's no kiddish games involved..haha..anw,wat motivates me to go was e bbq! suddenly had a craving for bbq food..and there's korean bbq too! yummy yummy..it makes me wanna go for korean bbq buffet next time! any1 hav any reccommendations?haha..oh ya..not forgetting there's also a satayman helping us to 'peng' satay..e satay was damn delicious can! e meat was very tender and juicy,and there's a little fatty meat in it..woah~! talking abt it makes me drool again! *slurp* anw, e weather on tt day was very bad,been raining e whole day..but luckily e bbq pit was kinda sheltered,so didnt really affect much..and tt's why i gt such good food to eat! wahaha..
Ydae got no lab session,so me and pat went to orchard coz she nds to exchange an adidas top she bought for her bf..we changed at cini..we were lazy to walk up to far east,so i suggested gg orchard central to explore..was quite disappointed at 1st coz it was generally still quite empty..den we saw there's a board at e entrance showing some of e restaurants at higher floors,so we went up to have a look since i was a lil hungry,and was craving for ya kun..we came across a cafe tt sells something interesting-large fruit tarts(actually looks more like a fruit pie to me)..it looks damn delicious lorz! but quite ex actually,1 slice ard $7.50..hesitated for quite awhile whether to try anot,but in e end sticked back to ya kun..but we promised to go back and try 1 day!
When we gg took e lift back down after eating,we saw there's a label outside e lift saying there's a rooftop garden..ha..curiosity aroused,so we decided to go up explore ard..wah,it's surprisingly cool! can see quite a clear view from here..e most exciting part was taking e lift up..almost all side of e lift was glass,except for e floor..apparently we could see e lift gg up when we tilted our heads up..cool yea?but pat was so scared she grabbed my hand very tightly..making me also become abit tensed up..lolx..this reminds me of e time when i took e pan pac hotel lift with s20 gals,and min was so scared she sqeezed herself near e lift door so as to stand further away from the glass walls of e lift where we could see wat's outside..haha..

Post title : Aktivitas~!
♥ You'll never know the real me.
--I jux realised i din post it up until now =X..haha..so it's actually a super late and outdated post but i still post it up anw =)--
Time for updates!! been quite some time since i last updated le..din mean to use back e same excuse,but i really din hav much extra time to really sit down and update..these 2 weeks were rather packed..but not entirely with sch work this time(not to mention doing lab reports coz it becomes a usual thing tt it's always e lab report tt eats up my time), was busy doing some new kinds of things tt i din do before..haha..
One example was doing handcrafts! it's been a long long long time since i last touched art and craft kind of thing..did 1 card with xuemei for jieying's belated bdae and helped pat to do 1 mini album for her 3rd year anniversary with her bf..haha..
Me and xm went to search for her super belated bdae present on e 10th oct tt sat..we walked ard for long hrs but we still couldnt find any suitable item for her..jux as we were intending to give up on searching,we randomly went into e guess shop to try our luck for e last time..we suddenly saw a clutch bag damn suitable for her!we were like so relieved can..no nd fan where to go and search again..tt's wat always happened-e more urgent u wanna find something,e more u couldnt find it,but when it becomes not urgent,it jux showed up in front of u..haha..
E next day we met up at ps to buy materials for her card..went to e shop which famously sell these kind of materials at lvl 3..den went to mac to do e card..i still tink tt my talent in art n craft is very low..but at least e card looks unexpectedly not bad..haha..by e time we finished it's already 9 plus..quickly chiong upstairs to see if there's any restaurants tt's still open..settled at Ichiban and i ordered a katsu set which i regretted later coz it's too much for me to eat such a gigantic portion at such a late timing! i was damn bloated after e dinner la..next time i must be wiser abit..
Our "jie zuo"!
On thurs met up with grace for dinner..it's kinda our 1st time meeting since all e misunderstandings between us were resolved..treated her to nydc dinner at bugis as a super belated birthday treat which i guessed i owed her..chatted alot abt e misunderstandings btw us..it felt kinda great to have our friendship salvaged..
On fri it's our 1st memasak(cooking) session for our bahasa indo proj! went to our teacher-in-charge Ibu Yuke to learn..our group learnt deserts-kelepon(it's actually ondeh-ondeh but it gt another name in indo) and gula merah (if i din rmb e name wrongly-it's jux some kind of agar agar made of brown sugar)..it's really fun making them!
On sat met up with pat to help her do e album meant for her 3rd anniversary with her bf..haha..she said she dunno how to do this alone..so i decided to help her though my art n craft was quite horrible..haha..after buying e materials,we went to starbucks to do..it's public hols,so supposedly cathay shld hav alot of pple..but it's quite quiet actually..weird..haha..(wanted to post photos but in e end i din coz i tink it's abit nt appropriate here..ha..)
In e evening went to have dinner with my family..it's my bro's treat since he jux got his pay from his attachment..hee..went to east coast to hav seafood! but almost every resaturant was full house,so we jux settled at e "wu zhao pai"(no signboard) seafood since it's e only restaurant which still has empty tables..e food wasnt really tt fantastic,except for e yam ring(my all-time fav~!) and e white pepper crab!
On sun i decided to try making e ondeh ondeh on my own..haha..it's a success ok! i got another new food added to my collection of wat i can cook le!wahaha..
I jux realised e ondeh-ondeh cant be seen coz they are of e same colour as e coconut since i nv add any colourings..lolx..
Let's see who will have e chance to try my cooking next time! =P

Finally got to rest after a busy week..got to study for 2 tests,chiong a super tough report,and finish my assignment..esp on e tue night where i only slept for 1 hour coz got to chiong tt stupid report due e next day...maybe i jux got to blame myself for being so damn slack during e recess week..haha..shld hav started studying for my tests..i rmb last friday night i started studying for my core mod test,and both my mum and sis actually asked me whether i got a test e next day which was a sat..=.= maybe they were too used to seeing me slack on a friday night..but in fact,im quite proud of myself for being so initiative this time..though my mind wasnt really in a study mood,at least i forced myself to show some effort..haha..but i tink i still screwed up e test anw..haizzz..
Actually this week was supposed to be e-learning week..means all e lectures will be on webcast,and we dun hav to go to sch for lecs..was quite excited at 1st lorz..but at e end realised tt i still got to go to sch almost everyday for my lab and tut and tests..so din make much difference..and now i got a mountain of webcasts waiting for me to complete..faintzz..
Tink my entry getting abit boring..coz got nth much to update now except tests,books and tests..all my fun fun times and activities were during e end of my recess week..but im lazy to update these backlogs..so yea..shall end here..maybe shld learn to sleep early also..Ha!

Post title : My long weekend~!
♥ You'll never know the real me.
E long weekend seems to pass by real fast~! Playtime always make time fast forward..haha..been playing around during this long weekend,and among these days,i had attended 2 21st bdae parties..but actually,this long weekend doesnt really make much difference to me..coz this week is already my mid-sem break..and this means my hari raya public hol was being cheated off..=/
On friday evening was supposed to attend ming xuan's 21st at sentosa resort..but e others haven even buy e prezzie yet! so i met dione at orchard and we went to hunt for her present together..but after walking ard for 3 hours,we still haven find a nice and suitable present for her..among e VERY few things we tink were nice,either they were out of budget,or they dun suit her..so we called peg for help..we went down to vivo to meet peg and her bf after she knocked off from work..finally after dragging our feet ard to search,we managed to settle on a Tommy Hilfiger bag..by e time we reached e resort,it's already 10 plus..
While waiting for e shuttle bus and at e hotel:
E food was quite sumptuous..there's sushi,noodles,acar,ngioh hiang and chicken chop prepared by mx's mum,and durian crepes bought by her mum also..e curian crepes were super super delicious~! suddenly makes me crave for durians again!haha..cake-cutting started not long after we reached..after tt we nua-ed at her hotel,watched e "legend of e condor heros" together,took polaroids and photos together..by e time we left e hotel,it's already 12 plus gg 1am..
On sunday after having breakfast with my family and buying some necessities at people's park,me and my sis went to catch a movie at bugis coz we got some shaw movies vouchers..watched e movie "whiteout",which i tink was average..before we left,saw some mooncake galore at bugis junction..tt's where my craving for durian mooncake was back after i walked past e goodwood park hotel mooncakes! On impulse,i asked my sis to buy 2 back to try..haha..
Though it's not as delicious as i expected(since goodwood park is famous for its durian pastries),my cravings were still satisfied..slurp~!
Ydae went to east coast with my family to cycle..din expect to be so crowded already at 10 plus..nearly wanted to give up on this plan,but my dad was lucky to find a parking place at which a car was jux abt to leave..but tt "lot" wasnt really a real lot..get wat i mean?haha..anw,e thing we loved to cycle there is bcoz it's cheap..rent 1 hr with another hr free..but actually it's not really wise to go cycling on a public hol coz it's always super crowded,and are more prone to accidents..was quite apologetic to a guy whom i crashed into ydae..there's 1 top-naked peh peh trying to cross e cycling path like nobody's business,and suddenly he stopped in front of me coz i tink he wanted to wait for a kid who's cycling very slowly to cycle across 1st..tt time i knew even if i braked immediately i would still bang into him..so i swirled to e right instead..but i din know there's a guy cycling very fast from behind,so i crashed into him while avoiding tt peh peh..coz he's very fast,he flew out of e bicycle while i only fell out lightly from mine..luckily he din hurt badly,if nt i will be very guilty le..anw,though i only cycled for 2 hours,i already got a sunburnt lorz..it's super sunny in e early noon la...
But dunno y it started to rain heavily at 2 plus..tt time we were at bedok walking ard coz my mum wanted to go to e mega ntuc over there..always like to buy alot of cakes and breads from there,coz it's cheap and nice! we always joked tt if we wanna move house,we shld move to bedok coz got alot of nice food to eat..haha..went home after tt..den got to immediately start preparing to go to dione's 21st in e evening at nsrcc..
Met cindy at tm mrt before taking e shuttle bus in..tt time it's only 6 plus,we thot of orientating ard since it's still early..sadly it rained even before we stepped out of e resort lobby..started looking for any sheltered ways..but there's none..so we called dione to bring some umbrellas for us to walk to her chalet..
Her party food consisted mainly of bbq-ed food(there were otah,chicken wings,hotdogs,satay,sambal sotong and sambal stingray) plus some pineapple rice and noodles to go with them...coz it was raining,e bbq only started at 7 plus close to 8..prob this was e reason why e cake-cutting started rather late at 10pm..coz e last shuttle bus was at 1030,we got to eat our cake while trying to catch tt last shuttle bus..but in e end we still couldnt make it..jux nice there's a cab driving in to let its passenger alight..initially we split 4-3 since there's 7 of us..but e cab driver offered to drive all of us to tm mrt,since he knew it's hard to get a cab from there..and so e 7 of us squeezed into e cabbie..LOL..
(sorry for e lousy shots..i took them using my phone camera..haha)

Post title : I love weekends~!
♥ You'll never know the real me.
Ahhh...finally got to update..there's always something wrong with e blogger everytime i wanted to update...grrr...got a few times wanted to jux vent some frustrations over here but couldnt..damn idiotic..but nvm,already felt much better now..
For e past 2 weeks there wasnt really much things gg on during e weekdays..jux been gg sch as usual,stoning in lec as usual,and following my daily night routine as usual..haha..weekdays are usually e most boring days..coz cant really go out until late at night since we got to study or for some pple,they got to work e next day..of coz except for fri la..haha..tt's y always super anticipate weekends to come..coz got more activities to enjoy! =P
On e 5th,went to attend jazreel's 21st party..it's held at her uncle's condo function room at sengkang..so got to travel a long way there..lucky i got a direct bus to there,so dun hav to tk mrt since i got bus concession..i always prefer to take bus than mrt,even if e bus ride was super long..but provided im not in a rush la..anw,met up with pat,rainbow and ah man at e interchange before gg together..
Her party theme was green..so when we reached there,we were like overwhelmed with green..e buffet catering she ordered was really delicious! she ordered from "simply peranankan"..though more expensive than those usual catering service,e food was really very nice and i tink it's worth e price..thinking abt e assam fish curry i ate tt day made me drool again!haha..we left e place at 10 coz we nd to travel a long way back..ah man took e bus with me..we chatted non-stop throughout e journey..haha..had a fun time chatting with her..i tink e whole bus can hear our laughter..lolx..
E next day went to have sakae buffet with xm..finally satisfied my sushi craving after such a long time! we went to e branch at icon village since only tt branch offer sunday buffet..and it's very near my house,so i jux need to walk there..haha..went to e toilet 1st before gg into e restaurant..while i was in e cubical and xm was at e mirror,both of us heard some weird and continuous disgusting burping sound..we still thot it was either 1 of us who did it,and still teased each other for being so disgusting when i came out of e cubical..it was den we realised it wasnt any of us, e sound was coming from e cubical at e corner of e toilet,which we din even realised it was occupied in e 1st place..we thot we were e only ones in e toilet..we din even dare to make a sound after tt and we quickly zoomed out of e toilet,laughing out super loud after tt..lolx..i always enjoyed my time with her coz we always got to crap around,laugh out loud and also have heart-to-heart talks with each other..haha..
On e 12th met up with my ex-colleague for dinner..it was supposed to be my treat but turned out to be his treat..felt quite guilty actually..had our dinner at mac at e west coast area and walked around e west coast park after tt..jux realised tt it's been 10 plus years since i last stepped into WCP..it's like a total new place to me..it's much less crowded compared to EC..maybe partly bcoz it's not as developed as ECP ba..there's really not much things to do over there..but we saw some yatcht over there..we were wondering if we got e chance to step on a yatcht at least once in our lifetime..haha..walked ard until 11 plus before gg home..
Alot of things were going on in my mind..I felt like i was sitting on a roller coaster..bringing me up,and dropping me down..I really hate this feeling..I felt like i was in e same vicious cycle again..I thot i might be able to step out of it,but realised i couldntIm back to e same point again..Everything was nothing but jux a beautiful bubble..It burst e moment u touched it..E moment where it burst is where u felt e most painNow tt im finally out of this roller coasterLooking back,I realised tt it was after all my own will to sit on this roller coaster..
