I can shuffle! :):):):):)

Just spent an hour learning the dance moves for the upcoming D&D performance. Initially just wanted to help out for the video part, but turned out that shuffling can be really fun! :)

HAHAHAHA! And so I agree to perform on the actual day too! *WHEE!* Hopefully I have the time to change before dancing on stage. If not, I guess I'll be wearing my gown and dancing in high heels! =.=||

2 more weeks to the actual event!~ Though excitement is in the air, I can definitely foresee a super duper busy week because of the endless rehearsal. Now I can't wait to see my gown (specially designed and made for myself! ^_^!) and hopefully, I'm not disappointed! :)) Yes, I totally leave all the design work to the tailor. *OppS!*

Once the gown is done, shoes is next on the list! :) I <3 shopping for shoes! HAHHAHA! I guess it's every girls' hobby too! 

Ok, I'm super unglam now (all the sweats on the face, clothes sticking to the body, hair so messy I don't think I can comb it through), so here's an old photo that shows how happy I am RIGHT NOW! 

 My purple-hood from McDonald's latest Hello Kitty Collections! :)

:) Quote from Jay's song "让自己快乐快乐这才叫做意义".

I couldn't agree more with this sentence. Though I'm positive, but sometimes girls do get emotional and cry for no reason. From now on, gotta remind myself only to cry when necessary. *^_^!* I'm going to be a stronger girl, someone worthy of loving me more.

Have a great work week ahead everyone! :) 

1st "overseas" trip with Qianwen! :)

As promised, here's a brief post on my first Batam trip with Qianwen! :) 

We got this package from the Deals.com (again!) and it's quite convenient caused I can make our hotel reservation & ferry booking via online. Save me a lot of time, just need to reply email here and there! :)

Booked our room at Harris @ Batam Center, which is just 5 minutes walk from the Ferry Terminal. So it's quite safe for us girls to navigate to and fro the terminal. Opposite our hotel is the Mega mall, so we can go shop anytime we like! *HOHO!* 

It's a real getaway because not much we can do there. And it's not like both of us can just grab a cab and move around. Anyway, the surprise we had on this trip was met my colleague in the supermarket! *LOL!* 

We got invited by them out for dinner with their whole gang and after that went in search for a nightclub. HAHAHA! Seriously, this is the first time I went overseas to a nightclub. Nothing fancy just a place with live band and beer. 

HAHAHAHA! Lots of laughter in the van, and best of all, we made some new friends that night! :)

:) Now I can't wait for July trip with Qianwen again! It's going to be purely a SHOPPING SPREE! LOL!

Memorable Weekend

Super packed weekend! Or should I say my weekend started since Thursday? :)

Thursday: Checked in chalet - Work - RWS party - back to chalet - Sleep

Friday: Wake up (almost late for work!) - Work - FULL OF ISSUES! - Chalet (to collect the BBQ food & grabbed some 15 minutes of power nap! *SHIOK!*

Started the evening BBQ when colleagues started to arrive. Lucky we prepared earlier if not 大家 is going to get super hungry! And surprisingly I don't feel hungry at all (must be all the smoke). I didn't ate anything at all. HAHAHA! Wii-ed with the kids and after that mahjong-ed till wee hours. I'm not the one playing, I'm the scorer. Sleeping, watching MI:4 and getting 吵醒 every time the guys finished 1 round. -_-""

Slept at 4am. Woke up at 4 hours later from the insistent loud knocking on the door! *AHHHHHH!*

Just don't understand why the guys can wake up and watch TV when they only slept for 4 hours only?! Anyway, went back to sleep and lucky Mr Lin called and gave me a morning call so that I can prepare for check out! :)

Checked out at 10am and rushed down to Harbor-front to catch our ferry to Batam! First trip overseas (literally) with BFF! ^_^!!! Lucky Mr Lin fetched me down cause I was running late.

Batam trip started and it was a enjoyable 2D1N with BFF & some new friends! Funny bunch of friends and I'm really envious of them! :) 

Shall post more on the trip in the next post! :)

A baby's weight on the arms feel so good! :)

:) Haven't carry a baby for quite some time (I think maybe years) and finally I get to carry Zurie for the first time! ^_^_^_^_^!!!

Early in the morning went down to collect the cupcakes specially made for her. The thing about baby girls is that you tend to have the feeling to make her feel like a princess. HAHAHA!

 :) Princess theme cupcakes from Sweetest Moments! Recommended by CM, and indeed the cupcakes is delicious! 

:) Some snap shots from the party! HAHAHA! 

Zurie is smiling! :) HAHAHA! It's not easy to capture a shot with the smile on the baby face. It's usually a few shot before you can capture the one that you want. :)

Though the hands get tired after a while, I don't feel like putting her back to baby cot. HAHAHA! It feels really good to have this tiny weight on my arms. And the unique baby scent just kept surrounding you. :)

祝你快点长大, 开开心心!

What an adventure! ^_^!!!

Just came back from Malacca! Indeed, this is the first trip that I encountered so many adventures! Some good, some bad, some scary! *LOL!*

:) A walk into the Christ Church, Melaka

1st adventure: Drove straight into the Police Station

We rented a car (Proton Persona) so that we can navigate easier around and also to find some good places for food besides of the City. Unfortunately, it was a last minute decision, thus only left with Protons. Once we gotten our car, we decided to go back to the Hotel first to sleep a bit more before making our way down to A'Famosa (Water World) since it's quite a long journey. I set my Goggle Map on iPhone and set off but it seems like the road from Google Map is short-cut and in actual fact we aren't allow to pass through. Thus, we ended driving into the Police station! >.<""

2nd adventure: Reversed cars are DANGEROUS!

I had my first car accident! O.O!!! Yeah, my clean record is now NOT CLEAN! :'( I almost scared the car park attendant to death. But then her expression made me laugh till the stomach dropped! O.O!!! Anyway, lucky Mr Lin is alright, and no one is injured, but the poor car has some scratches on top of it.

>.<"" Quite a bad scratch and till now still feeling guilty for causing it!

3rd adventure: Washing the car under the scorching hot sun!

We found quite a big patches of yellow paint on the injured car, thus we decided to do our own cleaning. Using the Dettol wipes (that's the only wet tissues on hand), we slowly removed all the paint from the car. By the time we're done, we're almost half dead. Poor Mr Lin, he had to accompany me all the way due to my careless mistakes!

4th adventure: Illegally driving into private estate

I kept asking Mr Lin to drive me to find the Beef Bah Ku Teh that was highly recommended online by many. So during the 2nd night, he drove me right to the exact point shown on the GPS. However, surrounding us was just rows and rows of private houses. From the blogs, we knew that the shop is surrounded with bamboos. So when we saw that the house is also surrounded with bamboos, we thought that the shop is inside. So we drove in through the gate slowly and while Mr Lin is parking the car, I got a surprise! 

There were a few Muslims guys praying in the house. That's when I knew that this is not the correct place. Lucky, Mr Lin already switch off the headlights before driving in. If not, I think we'll be arrested! 

After making rounds and rounds and on the verge of going back to City, we finally found the Bah ku teh!

The soup is thick and very 够味! Something different from the usual Bah ku teh! Both of us finished the whole pot! *YUMS!*

Weather at Malacca is dreadful! Super duper hot and humid! Once I gotten my room I don't even feel like leaving the hotel to walk under the big hot sun! Anyway, it's purely a eat-walk-sleep-eat trip. HAHAHA! We just kept on eating and non-stop eating. O.O!!!!

And the thing about this Persona is that the signal is on the left, which is opposite of what I'm used to (right signal). So every time we wanted to signal, the wiper turns on and it irritates us so much!

No more holidays till November! O.M.G!!! How to tahan till then? >.<"

It's just get more exciting! :)

:) My Malacca trip is confirmed! *YAY!* So excited that I told Senior first and asked him to introduce all the good places to visit! ^_^!! LOL!

I'm so going to do a itinerary for the trip and hopefully everything will be good for Mr Lin! *wheeee!*

Tioman.....Malacaa.....Here we come! ^_^!!!

我只希望明天是绿的

March started badly. Tools down one by one, until I'm a bit 不自所错. Till now, though manage to get at least half the tool back, I'm still struggling between the red and green line. -___-"" Worse thing is there's another tool still dead. *sigh*

At least there's something good this week: SSMC Basketball Tournament 2012. Lucky everything went well, matches went accordingly and we ended everything on time. ^_^!!! Many thanks to all who turned up and help in one way or another. 

Would like to thank Mr Goh (Especially) for helping me to carry all the mineral water & capturing lots of shots during the matches! :) 

Here's some sneak preview from him: 

SRC girls :) Super X-Men team! :) Well done guys! See you at the Quarter Finals! ^_^!!!

:) Self shot of Jian Yong & myself! :) And a shot with Furnace guys! :) 

LOL! Mr Lin came back to say hello and was supposed to be helping me, but turned out that he was helping himself to the courts. -__-" HAHAHA! 

And while he was playing, Mr Au saw him and asked who is that guy. O.O!!! HAHAHAHA! The next thing he told me totally caught me off guard and I was laughing like mad. As quoted by him "So macho! Like me when I'm in my younger days". 

Mr Lin indeed has a sexy back. LOL!

It's a boring Sunday! Spent the morning in Jurong Point queuing for Five Stars. Booked a trip to Malacca to celebrate Mr Lin's birthday! ^_^!!! *YAY!* Ain't I a sweet girl huh? *自夸*

Weekend dates

:) Weekend passed in the blink of an eye. It's Sunday and just hours away, it's a brand new week again.

Spent the Saturday morning in East Coast Park. Preparing myself for the night cycling trip coming up in 2 weeks time. I got this feeling that the route my colleagues plan is going to be looooonnnng! -___-""

Woke up slightly earlier and prepared a lunch box for Mr Lin! :) HAHAHA! It's coincidence that my sister is going to Sentosa for picnic. So I goup some food from her too! :) 
 

Lunch box :)

Started our cycling trip at around 1pm. Initially our plan was to cycle to Changi Village and back. But due to the time constraint (meeting our Dearies later in the evening), we decided to shorten our route to Changi Beach Park. 

Stopped at Lagoon Beach Food Village for a bowl of Laksa! ^_^!!! Remember the last post I mentioned about this Roxy Laksa? HAHAHAHA! Yeah, I'm back for the 2nd round! And this time round I snapped a shot before eating! :)

 面对面 - Roxy Laksa :)

HAHAHA! This bowl of Laksa cost me $5 and it's totally worth the price. Fresh prawns and fish cakes with the thick and smooth gravy makes your yearn for more. ^_^!!! Each pieces of prawn is carefully sliced into half and you can see that it's still thick and chewy. Very worthy! :) 

Look out for them in the 面对面 episode! :) 

Evening time had our dinner at Mad for Garlic using the Deal's vouchers. :) Had our favorite Calzone Pizza & Cesar Salad :) YUMS! :)

Calzone Pizza (w Sweet Garlic Sauce); Sourish Cesar Salad

Still early after our hearty dinner so went on to find a place to watch Soccer (As per Cedric's request). LOL! We went to Arab Street and found a bluish shop "Aura" with  big TV. Too bad we arrived late and all the good seats are taken up. Nevertheless, I had a Long Island tea (still my favorite) and watched the match. A good night sleep!

Sunday is spent at home, doing nothing but housework and cooking lunch with my mum! :) HAHAHA!

P.S:　知道不管我的事，但是还是为我朋友感到愤怒。送你一句话：不要把自己的幸福建立在别人的身上。

When someone 毫不犹豫 help you with no terms and conditions, you know that he's the one for you. I found mine. Thank you for your help and concern. Truly.  

Just Noodles

:) Recently addicted to "Just noodles"! HAHAHAHA! Can't wait to try all the noodles out! :)

 

德明叉烧云吞面 from Dunman Food Center :) 

Our first stop: Wanton Mee! :) This was recommended as cheapest yet yummy by the show. Indeed, from the picture, you can see the amount of 面 in it. And not only that, the boss is very generous with the char siew and best of all, there's 4 (!!!) wantons! ^_^!!! HAHAHAHA! Nowadays, you don't get to see this kind of generosity. 

And it's just $2.50!!! *OMG!* Taste is good, not the typically type of wanton mee where the sauce is black in color. The sauce used here is somewhat like stock and with a bit of the chili sauce, the taste is just nice. But be warned, the chili is DAMN SPICY! -___-"

 黄金潮州鱼圆面 from Golden Mile Food Center :)

Was told that this was 人气第1 fish ball noodles as recommended by the Netizens! :) I'm not a big fan of fish ball noodles, but surprisingly I enjoyed this bowl of noodle! Don't just see from the picture, but the amount of 料 is a lot. Prawn, char siew, pork slices! And it costs only $3! HAHAHA! Cheap and delicious! :)

Coming Saturday I'm going to East Coast Park to cycle (prepare myself for the upcoming night cycling trip) and also to eat the Roxy Laksa at the Lagoon Food Center! ^_^!! HOHOHO! It's going to be on the next Just Noodles - Laksa Episode so look out for it! 

I have already eaten once last week, but forgotten to snap a shot! It's too irresistible! ^_^!!!! *YUMS YUMS!*

我要学做饭!!!!

I yearn for home-cooked food. Always.

I always appreciate whenever I get to sit down around the round table and sit down with family to enjoy the dinner. 

:) All the home cooked food! :) ......................

Dinner at Miss Wu's house! All the dishes prepared by her hubby! HAHAHA! And all I did was to wait and eat only. ^_^!!! Chinese style, but it's delicious! Especially all the dumplings! Yummilicious! ^_^!!!

Steamboat dinner at Mr Lin's place! :)

Random dinner. 9 of us sitting around a small table. Warm. It's good to have a big family sometimes. ^_^!!!

Random post. 

I just feel like writing something because the troubled feeling is back once again. Shit. I hated it. Can't wait for 18th to come.Wanna just get away from here, even for just 1 day. 

1st time looking into Optimus Prime at such a close range!!!

Woke up at 6am and the 1st thought that came to my mind is "Ahh, it's Monday, a brand new 5-day week!"

Trying to drag myself out of bed and suddenly realized that I'm on leave today! ^_^_^_^_^_^!!! It's my 2nd trip to Universal Studios Singapore (USS) with Mr Lin, my BFF and Stanley together with Kris!

Went back to sleep awhile more and in the end overslept and was late for breakfast! *LOL!*

:) Reached around 1030 and all the ticketing counters are full of people. BIG CROWD! We chose to go on a Monday was to avoid the crowd, but unfortunately, we didn't know that Malaysia is having 2 days of public holidays.We got our tickets at a discounted price and there was a surprise waiting inside for us! :)

20 express queue tickets! ^_^!!! No more long queue!

Started the day with Mr Frankenstein! HAHAHA! He's quite a funny guy because he will just lace your hands around his head. Next on the stop was Madagascar! :) The photographer is super nice because he took 4 shots for us! LOL! We get to move around and change to different poses. ^_^! 

After Shrek 4D, we went for our warm-up exercise! :) We went for the Enchanted Airways Dino Ride first! HAHAHA! It's a small roller coaster for the kids. Not that fast which explained the picture that we took live. *LOL!*

:) We decided to get wet first so that we can dry up while spending the rest of the day on the different rides. :) Rapid adventure at the Jurassic Park! HAHAHAHA! Lucky Mr Lin gotten his survival kit at the last minute. If not he will be super soaked to the skin. ^_^!!! 

Lunch at the Discovery Court and right after that we went for Canopy Fall to have a bird view of USS. Another live shot while we're on the ride. ^_^!!! Quite tiring while queuing for all the rides, thus we went for the Waterworld show at the Amphitheater. I must say I was super impressed with the show and stunts used. Thumbs up! :)

Following the map, Revenge of the Mummy is next on the list! :) HAHAHAHA! I always love this ride because of the different visual effects in it. Though I knew what to expect, I still got a shock when there was a sudden drop. LOL! 

Highlight of the day: Transformer Ride! :) HAHAHAHA! We knew that the queue will be super duper long, so we used our express tickets and went straight up to the ride! OMG! It's like 1 minute later, you're sitting in the capsule waiting for the ride to start. ^_^! That's the good thing about the express queue! :)

I'm totally lost in the whole ride. So captivated by the 3D effects and also how the ride went about. A bit of spoiler here. The capsule you're sitting in is actually an Autobot! :) HAHAHAHA! This is a must-take ride so I suggest you go straight for this ride once USS is open for the day. LOL! 

Good things always worth the wait! 2 more rides of the day: Human & Cylon Battlestar Galactica! HAHAHAHA! I'm still scared of the Red ride (Human) because there isn't any support on your upper body. I don't feel safe at all. HAHAHAHA! Cylon is still the best though you will be overturned and twist around, and a 720deg turn! O.O!! I <3 Cylon more! More exciting and safer because your whole shoulder will be belted up.

Cool down exercise: Accelerator, i.e: Teapot! :) HAHAHAHA! Just to get dizzy before we leave for the day.

Still looking good before the ride. LOL! :)

A Panoramic view of Broadway.

:) Walked around the Broadway and snap some shots. By that time, my legs are so sour that I can barely walk. LOL! Had a quick dinner at Vivocity before going home (it's another working day the next day).

Here's a shot of me, him and Bumblebee! :) 

Gotta sleep, have a good night ahead! :)

:)

:) Got a pleasant SURPRISE from Mr Lin just now! Till now, I'm still blushing....LOL!

Thanks for cheering me up, I needed that.

韩国我来了!!!

YEAHHHHH, I got the go ahead from Mr Lin to book for our Korea trip! Though it's next year, but still I can start to countdown slowly......WAHAHAHAHA!

Had a great night talking with my Senior, seems like there's so many places that I wanna visit now. ^_^_^_^

Maybe Cairns, Australia? HAHAHA!

If only I can travel into the future

:) Just need another 2 more years.

Can't wait.
