Just came back from work @ RM. I think i smell 臭臭 cause today quite an eventful day.

3.45pm: Reach RM

Collect the uniform & had to rush to change, exchange working pass and hurry down to do work.

4pm: Reach outside Function Room

Left our belongings & rush down to the lawn to set up the tables & chairs for the upcoming wedding dinner tonight ^_^

Most of the tables & chairs are already set up so I just need to put on the chair cover. After awhile, I start to sweat liao (cause the sun's quite big). :) Do things here & there.......and it's almost time for the cocktail reception.

6pm: Cocktail Reception

Just serving drinks to the guests. Quite simple, but I think i accidentally sprain my wrist :( (who ask me take so many cups of drink @ 1 go). *abit painful* but lucky it's my left hand so I can still write with my right.

7pm: Guests arriving @ the Lawn

It's quite a beatiful sight as it's almost sunset and the sky's pretty. I had to continue to serve the guests drinks and when everyone's seated (or most of the guest, cause you know Singaporean, LATE is a common thing), the wedding's start. I think the most romantic thing about the whole event is that both the bridegroom & bride will arrive from the sea and everyone's waiting at the dock to welcome them. With the sun setting at the back, I think the pictures taken will be spectacular. ^_^!!!

The bride look extremely young in the pictures but in person, abit mature looking. I guess that's what photoshop is about. hehe!~ But she's pretty and sweet so it doesnt matter much. The bridegroom has a "Navy" look (maybe because he's wearing white) but he looked real cool when he's in black tux ^_^!!!.

*Dinner starts...*

*Clearing of plates....refilling of water....*

9pm: Guests leaving

Time to clear up the mess! :) hehe! Actually beforehand already quite messy liao. My uniform has so many stains (hopefully can get them off) and I haven got any idea where they come from. Got to clear all the used utensils + glasses + table cloths, etc

10.30pm: Clean washed cutlery

My favourite part of the job. Dunno why i seems to have a fetish for cleaning and drying the cutlery. *Enjoying myself*

Clean & Shiny cutlery. I cleaned them myself ^_^ *winks!*

After that, it's time to go home so we change to our clothes and collect our pay and HOME SWEET HOME! :)

Though it's tiring but I had fun (kids to entertain me ^_^).

*My heartfelt CONGRATULATIONS to the newlyweds*

WOW! What a long & tiring day. Starting from Thursday I've been in school for 24 hours. All because of 3003 assignment, we decided to stay back in school to complete and submit the hardcopy on friday. Since we are staying over in school, we might as well go swimming in the evening so that we can have a shower and feel fresh before starting on our report.

After spending 2 hours in the morning working on my report (only manage to complete the background review OMG! so slow), had my lunch with my dear friends (QIAOLIN, jieying, Cedric & jingyuan darling) @ The Quad. Simple lunch and it seems that no matter where, when, we can always come out with CRAZY ideas. We decide to make a main course for jingyuan to 试吃.
Our final Product:

Heartening Meal consisting of "bits & pieces" of everyone's lunch + extra ingredients ^_^! *Oishii!*

After lunch, we went back to library to continue with our report. Near evening time, we meet up with uncle ye0 to go for a swim. It was a nice weather (not too dark not too sunny) and the pool isnt that packed as it is whenever we go. We swam quite a number of laps (just the breath of the pool) and I challenge mr. lin to see how long we can tread water. Loser got to buy the other person dinner. ^_^!!! hehehe~ yesh! I WON! (though by that time, I'm already half-way dead =.=) I realised that mr. lin can really sink into the water. He can sit or even lie flat at the bottom of the pool. I can't do that (haven got any idea why). I would sink half-way and float to the top again unless I let more air out which means that by the time I manage to sit down at the bottom of pool, I had to get to the surface for air. I cant even hold my breath too. At most 15 seconds! /sign! got to start to train my lungs~~

Although I cant sink well, I can float well enough. ^_^!!! Mr. lin on the other hand, cant float AT ALL! hehe!~ Have been trying to make him float but to no avail. Is it because he's too tall (legs too long) or because he got a bigger mass? I havent got any idea and still thinking how to make him float. *LOL*

Anyway, I have another aim to strike for...that is to use 1 breathe and swim across the 25m pool. I almost did that but when I was about 2 arms length away I got to come out for air. But I manage to use 2 breathes to swim across. Quite a big accomplishment for me ^_^!!!

Napkin Candle ^_^

This is the candle that I made using Napkins during work @ Raffles Marina. All thanks to Cindy, I learnt something new. Isnt it cute? hehe!!~Work @ RM is fun. It isnt that tiring and there's lot of GOOD food to eat. ^_^!!!

*Have been sneezing all day :) is it a good thing?*

Thursday, November 06, 2008

It's a day to remember! (^_^) I manage to wake up early (enough) to give mr. lin his morning call and to have Roti Prata (all the way from Jalan Kayu) for lunch. All thanks to Cindy & mr. lin!

Anyway, the important thing for today is to help jingyuan change his style. So after a long afternoon (trying to listen to lectures & waiting for him to finish his forensics class), off we go to Marina Square. I manage to book an appointment with the Kimage Prestige @ MS, all thanks to Qiaolin who told us there's a November promotion.

*Taking bus to interchange.....*

*MRT....*

Here we are @ MS, finding our way to the Kimage. I remember that it's outside the Carls Jr. so we made our way there first. Lucky, we are right on target because we're already late for the appointment. The lady hairstylist is very pretty and kind, explaining to jingyuan (or maybe us?) about the style that is suitable for him. After that, we decided to leave jingyuan in her hands. ^_^
This is the hair before the new hair-cut. Don't he look TOO YOUNG for his age? /envy! *_*

*Washing.....cutting.....washing.....styling.....*

HERE WE ARE:

Fresh from oven! ^_^!!! Doesnt he look great? hehe!~ the haircut's a success! /CHEERS

Right-hand side look

Left-hand side look

Overall, we are VERY happy with the new haircut! I think it makes him look younger and more "sunny". A big accomplishment for us! YEAH!!! *He's no longer the knight in tarnished armour, but shiny armour!!!*

After a long process, our dear jingyuan is hungry so we made our way to Hotpot Culture for our dinner. It's our first time there, so we decide to give it a try! ^_^

Our drinks for the night!~ Ice lemon tea, Ice lemon honey & barley ^_^

The supposed "hotpot-s" :)

Our food (a small portion only!!!)

Sweet & Sour Fish (without fish but lots of onions) >.<

Stuffed Chicken (with something) Supposed to be the chef's recommendation but it wasnt as nice as we thought. :)

Mango Freeze!!! (shivers!) I think it's quite nice cause jingyuan seems to enjoy drinking it. *too bad mango's not on my favourite list* :)

Cant resist the temptation! Got to take a picture before the style goes off ^_^!!!

Jingyuan & Su San honey! ^_^

Jingyuan & Cindy ^_^!!! (all can't resist the temptation!)

I know Qiaolin has always wanted to try the food here, so we decide to give her a surprise. Next time we will come again and you'll know. ^_^

P.S Jingyuan gotta wake up earlier from tomolo onwards to style your hair, ya? ^_^

Today, the most amazing thing happen to me (I think most guys would want this to happen to them :) ). A lady just stripped her swimming suit in front of me. >.< Yeah I know it's nothing to be so serious about, but then I thought it's a crime to flash in front of people? And she's inside the toilet (with empty crubicles!!!), why cant she just go into one of the empty stalls and do her business? I mean what she has I also have, just that I'm REALLY not use to having naked girls in front of me. Lucky her figure not too bad lorh...if not really turned me off (*_*)

I feel as though I'm the foreigner when I'm inside the pool. It's full of china students, and it's like only me & my honey are singaporeans. Can I generalise that Singaporeans dont like to swim or is it because today is a SUNDAY and most of the Singaporeans are either at home (for those staying in hall) or they are out playing?

Anyway, exam's coming in about 2 weeks time. So GUYS, WORK HARD NOW~!!! In a month or so, it's time for our ChaLET!!! HOHOHO!!! *ganbatte!*

Saturday, November 01, 2008

Haix!!! Once again, my computer break down! :( this time round it's the graphic card problem. I was quite shocked to see my old graphic card when the person took out for me to see. It's FULL of dusk and some parts I cant even see the metal connections on the PCB. *WOW!* Anyway, cost me 200 bucks for the new card and troubleshooting fees. *broked!!!*

Right now (or about 5 mintues ago while I'm blogging this entry), I received a phone call! I know it's not something strange, just pick up the call and say "hello". So, I did what I'm supposed to do, say "hello". On the other side of the phone came a really nice voice, "Hi, may I know who called me?" I was like "huh?" and was about to tell him wrong number and hang up when he recite my house number out: "656*****". I hestitate for awhile and asked him when the missed call is. It's around 10.43 am/pm (not sure is morning or night). But around that time, most of our family is out for work or school liao, so cannot be us calling him right? Anyway, we chit-chat abit (mostly on the possibilities that my dad knows him) and hang up the phone.

I was about to go back my room (to continue with blogging) when my mum's handphone rang. I heard her saying "Bill". I was like "hMMM?!" so I went to look for my mum and took over the phone. The 1st thing I said was "Hi Bill! It's you again?!". He sound so shocked when he knew it was me again. /giggles!!~~ Anyway, gotta check with my brother whether he did make a call to a guy call Bill anot. I really dont believe in such a coincidence but yeah it has happened to me. ^_^

Hehe!~ But Jingyuan says be careful (such coincidences hard to happen de), and I intend to be super careful. ^_^!!!

Giving someone all your love
is NEVER an assurance
that they'll love you back
Don't expect love in return
just wait for it to grow in their hearts
But if it doesn't
Be content that it grows in yours

It's a long day starting with waking up VERY LATE! and rushing to school in time to celebrate Serene's 21st birthday! ^_^!!!

So, everyone, let's say "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" to Serene!!! May your dreams and wishes come true and SMILE always!~~ We had pizza and spicy drumlets from PizzaHut delivery. *yummy!*

After partying, went to study abit on lithography (to prepare for 3002 quiz on Friday :( ) but didnt manage to study much because spent quite alot of time looking through facebook with my honey. *HOHO!!*

Around 4.30pm, Cindy and darling came and we went for a jog in school. I didnt manage to run much (i think 3 rounds + 1 round walking around tracks) and I'm dead beat. I cant seem to get enough air into my lungs and feeling really giddy. Chit-chat abit and went showering and had our dinner at Jurong Point's Ben10. I wouldnt say the food is super good (there's better) and services abit too lousy (maybe there's too many people, but that's not an excuse). I suggest going to other outlets to enjoy.

My dinner: Chicken Curry rice with really nice KIMCHI! YUM!~


Our dessert for the night: Oreo Mania (Yesh, I think Oreo's my darling favourite, he's always ordering dessert with Oreo >.<)

Trying to be artistic! Can see me & darling inside the spoon? With Cindy and Honey....Effect not really good :(

Tuesday, October 28, 2008

It's a PUBLIC HOLIDAY so whole bunch of us decided to go Sentosa to chill out abit (I wouldnt say chill because it's really a HOT DAY!) We made some food and play volleyball, swim in the sea, bullying Jingyuan (becoming my favourite pastime nowadays).

Jingyuan darling + me (Motive: stay behind the person, your face will looked smaller ^_^)
Somehow Jingyuan looks abit like my brother *_* but my sunglass is still bigger than his :)
honey (wearing jingyuan's sunglass) & me
Abit Z00M-in of me & honey :)
My life-long friends (You guys are always on my mind) ^_^~~

This song never fails to brighten up my day. Simple lyrics but strong meaning ^_^ Ohh it's a song from the Korean Drama "Save the Last Dance for Me". It's really nice~ :)

When I look in your eyes I can see that you
Want to be with me but you're so scared
And I don't know what to say or do
But the tears keep falling from your eyes
And I know that
Times won't change my love
And I can't do nothing to keep you
Oh, I'll give my love oh when I hold you tight
Give my love through kisses oh so bright
And you know that I can't change my love
Take my love all through the night
As the hours pass away
You think that love ain't here to stay
Feel a beat from your chest
But you don't give doubt a moment's rest
You dream the future and all you see is dark
Listen to your heart, baby, the truth will set sparks
Now I'll give my love oh when I hold you tight
Give my love through kisses oh so bright
And you know that I can't change my love
Take my love all through the night
Now I'll give my love oh when I hold you tight
Give my love through kisses oh so bright
And you know that time won't change my love
Take my love all through the night
I'll give my love oh when I hold you tight
Give my love, through kisses oh so bright
And you know that I can't change my love
Take my love all through the night
/smiles! I woke abit quite late for the 930 class but lucky, manage to reach school in time.

Anyway, today we are going out for a sort of "appreciation lunch" for our 3005 presentation. After long hours of compiling reports and slides and preparing for the presentation, we decide to have some fun!!! ^_^!

So here we are, decided to go Vivocity's Earle Swensen's for our lunch. The best thing about this place is that you get to have unlimited access to the salad bar (which is REALLY YUMMY!) and the main course is so big that you have to share among each other to finish all the food. So from around 3pm we ate and ate and ate till about 5pm (with our stomachs bloated!), we went to get movie tickets for "High School Musical" @ 7.10pm show. *Guess what?!* It's showed in the really really big "stadium" threatre! Haha!
After that, we went to the skypark and took some pictures (interesting ones) and shopped inside Daiso. It's only October but they are already selling the Christmas stuff and yeah, we went to take some pictures of everything we see is cute. ^_^!

You know the feeling of a photographer always snapping pictures of you? Well, all thanks to Boon Ming and his "zai" camera, our pictures are always captured. Be it when I'm eating, or I have a ready-pose for him, or taking pictures with honey, Boon Ming will capture all down for us! THANK YOU! ^_^!!!

Our LUNCH place ^_^!

Trying to decide what my Lunch is going to be ^_^!!!

Honey & me (patiently waiting for our FOOD! ^_^!)

My Salad! ^_^! *healthy!*

Chocolate + sweet & sour Chicken bits = YUMMY! ^_^!!!

Lots of FOOD to gobble! /giggles!

POSE!

Too happy to eat all these food *haha!*

Before leaving, qucik snap of honey & me :)

The colors are so RICH~~

*Childish!* ^_^! but happie!

In between a GIANT! ^_^!

More pictures to come...too many liao haha~ Hope you enjoy! :D

It's a SUNDAY, supposed to be a resting day at home after a hectic week but not for me. Woke up around 9.30am to get ready for school (I know it's sunday, not supposed to have school).....

*Showering...*

*Washing here and there...*

After that (I'm already late) rushed to interchange to meet up qiaolin and cedric (about 15 minutes late :( ) and went to school. We went to the Seminar room for a mass (considering only the 3 of us) online lecture because we miss quite a number of lectures this week. Unfortunately, all the rooms are locked, but we manage to find a EEE tutorial room and we manage to listen to 3 lectures (Zhang hua's lecture). *quite ZAI!*

After 3 LONG hours, we went to get our lunch (MacDonald's) and while eating, we chit-chat abit (from movies all the way to the meaning of SHAG). Hey! Listen, if you like to use the word "SHAG", think twice before using it. HEHE! Go on and check it out at dictionary.com and scroll all the way down, you'll be able to find the real meaning!!! /giggles

Anyway, we decided to watch the movie "Connected" (Louis Koo and Barbie Hsu) and it's a really really nice show. There's lots of comedy and action stuff which keep you hot on the seat. Hurry catch the show if you haven't watch. ^_^!!!!

After the show, I have to rush down for the drama show at Raffles Hotel. It was an event/show organised by the Chinese Society in NTU. I truly enjoyed myself throughout the 3 hours show and it was really NICELY done. Definitely a must to watch and next time round, I'll invite all my friends to attend. Ohh, hopefully I didnt disturb the people sitting around me, cause during the whole show (whether it's sad or funny scene), I'm always laughing (quite loud too). /smile!

Honey & me before the start of the show ^_^!!!

Boon Ming (总教主), honey & me!

Boon ming + his daughter (inside the show) hehe!

It was a truly memorable night! ^_^!

While sorting, happen to chance upon this picture I took of my mum. I think it's about a week ago when she so happily went for a hair-cut and came home started to act cute. HONESTLY, she's been chit-chatting (bubbling would be a better word :) )so much the moment she came home, saying what a nice hair-cut she got and so cheap it cost her. Actually she looks cute in her new hair style, looks abit "korean"...haha ^_^!

Take a look and you'll know why I say she acts cute...SO MUCH! =.=

See the new hair style? Quite cute...

That pot of flowers is her favourite, arrnaged all by herself and we cant go NEAR it!

Thursday, October 09, 2008

It's going to be a very long night. I have to edit my 48 pages long report and make sure no spelling error, no grammar mistakes, the sentence structure is fine and to include all the references used in the report! OH MY GOD! Doesnt it sounds like I have tonnes of work on my head but just 10 hours away from dateline?

I supposed that's what a student life is (in University) anyway. Can't help but wonder besides studying, is there any other stuff that we students can do? I mean (HOPEFULLY) we are not going towards the studying style of China. I dont deny if I'm studying there, I'll be the 1st person to be given AT (Academic Termination)!!!

After tml's report due, I have 2 presentations to prepare for within 2 weeks of one another. Hmmm...that sound interesting, but TIRING as well! Lucky, I have my dear friends to be there for me, right? As long as they are there, I will look forward to going to school because I know I can be a happy student too. ^_^

/ganbatte!

IT'S A TIRING DAY!!! ^_^!!! BUT FUN!

Went for a swim in school (1st time) with my honey and darling! heex! Swam a few laps and honestly...it's so tiring after each lap. Have to start training again to get my lungs back into shape! haha! But it was very fun! Many thanks to Jingyuan for his goggles if not i will be swimming from lane 1 to lane 8...=.=

Quite a number of things happen...Got a guy tries to 搭讪me and my honey..but lucky he's quite g00d-looking...haha...Must be honey's good figure atttracts guys lorh...^_^!! and guess what...guys nowadays seems to like to hug one another in public pools...that's what I see anyway (maybe abit generalise?)

Ohh, my 第一次 also happen during the swim! haha! We went to jump of the 3m platform! haha!! It was scary (not abit only) but you got to jump no matter what (there's a queue behind me, no choice). You will floating in air for less than 2 seconds and "splash" into the water. The moment u enter the water, you feel human again. I didnt dare to try the 5m platform, but Jingyuan is very "ZAI"! He went to try and did it beautifully (unless you looked under the water :) ). Maybe next time I'll try the 5m platform, only after I master the 3m platform, I supposed! ^_^!!!

Anyway, after that went to shower and had our dinner at Canteen 2. I didnt know that there's a new stall that sells snow ice. We ordered 2 different flavous and enjoyed them!!!

Here they are:

2 VERY SINFUL desserts...^_^!!!

Chocoreo! Milk snow ice with bits of oreo's cookies and hot fudge /YUMMY!!!

Green Tea Snow Ice with peach toppings on top! (Can't help it, Peach is my FAVOURITE!) ^_^

Let's go do more swimming in future!!! ^_^ /EXERCISE!!!
