FINALLY a chance to blog... Haha, nono, I wasn't busy studying or whatever, just that somehow my time seem to always pass so ultra quickly and without any revision done.. HURRAH for jess!!! LOL. Plus I'm going to Christchurch for the weekend! My dearest cousin Ning's flying over for afew days and I hope we'd have an AWESOME time there! WOOHOO~!

But for now, it's the photos from my HK trip. Seriously, I miss HK thisssssssss much, even though I know my Cantonese is still as chapalang as ever. It's really 买东西吃东西买东西吃东西 loh. I miss my relatives too... ): by the way, I'm half HK-er in case you guys dunno. Alrite, enjoy!

LOOK! SIA gives fish sticks as a snack! Hurray for Janice the fish stick queen! Haha, we're joking. We just smuggled some of it in and placed them nicely on an SIA plate. HAHAHA. This collage cut out so many of my ridiculous face, which is good in a way! (:

Then we decided to be LAME with our camera! Meet our new sister, Jan-ica!


'Hi! I'm Jan-ica! I know I look abit weird, but I still look like my 2 sisters! Don't laugh at me!'

Then we decided to have more lame sisters.


My mum said this 'sister' is soooo like my 大姑姐。 You'll see her later in this post!


Another 'sister'. Thank God both Janice and I don't look exactly the same. Still wondering why people think we're actually TWINS. Siao ding dong.


My 鸡蛋仔 and I gobbling them!!!!!! My favourite snack in HK!


We found lots of old photos at our grandparents' place! Check out my aunts' PLATFORM SHOES in the really old photo! SHOCKING!


I found this really cool snack shop called 百味！You just choose whatever ingredient you want in your little bag (noodles, baby octopus YUM, squid balls, seaweed etc) and they add this really yummy sauce, and voila! Your very own snack bag! It's a cold dish and it's sooo good!


许留山, sort of a dessert store. ALSO VERY GOOD. Healthy and yummy. Fruits and other.. erm, healthy food. HAHA.


Takes 1,2 and 3! Hahaha. 1st shot: drink spilt! -.- 2nd shot: Ugly. 3rd shot: Candid!

Met my 姑丈 and my 2 little crazy cousins on our 2nd night in HK!


My cousins Tommy and Jenny, Janice and I! My, my, they really grow fast. Jenny is catching up on us and Tommy's already taller than us. Awww. LOL. I WILL MISS YOU GUYS!


Their golden retriever, CHEESE!!!!!!!!!!!! Super guai. Super super super guai.

Did some MAJOR shopping at 女人街! Check it out.


That's just in one day. Of course the shopping doesn't end here.


OCEAN PARK!


OCEAN PARK again! Super big peaches. LOL.


I absolutely loveee the long escalators at Ocean Park! Look at the view from the top lah. It's amazing I tell you! Ocean Park's changed quite abit since we last came, which is almost 5 years ago.



Some of the rides we took at Ocean Park. FUN MAN.



Cutesy seal.


Go up the Ocean Park Tower and you'll see the gorgeous view of HK!


The aquarium at Ocean Park - undeniably AWESOME. My camera is uber good at taking fishes too, despite their fast swimming and all. Hahahahahaha.


JELLYFISHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! So pretty omgomgomgomg. They shone different coloured lights on them and they turn out different colour almost every 5 seconds! Amazing.


My favourite ride since I was much younger -the flying swing! DAMN FUN even up to now.


HAHA, the ride both my mum and my aunt HATE - PIRATE SHIPPPP~! Last row the best!


In the cablecar! My aunt is sucha cute poser lah! Haha.


Mum, 小姑姐，大姑姐，Janice and I! It's been awhile, 大姑姐！Everyone said I looked like my 大姑姐 when I was younger. Maybe because she looks most like my Dad. HAHA. But now she's so hippy and I'm so... DEMURE - not! LOL. I think I'm quite high this morning. It's crazy!


奶奶，爷爷, Mona my elder cousin, Janice and I!



NEW SIA PLANE ON THE TRIP BACK TO SINGAPORE!!!! Forgot its name, but... It's still so nice! The screen and so called pod can be used as a PC too! Check out the USB ports and stuff.. It's advanced technology on SIA man. And the seats... So like business class. And the business class now is so like First Class. So, now I really dunno how First Class looks like.

Alright! That's it for my HK trip! Still got photos on my new hairstyle... But will post abit later.. Haha. I'm lurrrving it, really. Leaving you guys with a small photo of me webcamming with Ben. Haha.







My all-new bangs!


OUT!

新年快乐！

宁珈和我变成两只小猪猪！(omg my fringe so many gaps! YUCK!)

大家好！

既然是农历新年，我就决定再次使用华文来博客(blog)！

因为我的华文实在是非常非常的差，我只能写几行字而已。哈哈。

在这里，我要祝大家新年快乐，恭喜发财，万事如意，心想事成，身体健康！ 希望这猪年会是一个顺顺利利的一年！YEAHHHHH~

Archive madness.

So my sister was looking for the archived posts in my blog and realised that I don't have any (due to personal reasons). However, because of her sake, my archives are back up again, just that they're in a mess!

Someone help me with it please! I don't want to waste time typing in all the URLs for the archives one by one... So if any of you have any ideas for me, please shout at my chatterbox/ leave a message okay?

Thanks all!

'MOOOOOOOOO!' goes the cows.

Back in Dunners.

Currently feeling:

Jet-laggy. Sleepy. Unexcited. Unmotivated. nuanua. Constipated.


Hurrah.


I miss every single thing about Singapore.

I know I'm supposed to be happy about coming back, but it's just the first day...


Hopefully these crazy disgusting feelings will go away soon...



Just blogging to tell everyone that YES I'M STILL ALIVE! WHAHAHAHAHA. and mad.


Bye bye Singapore. I hope to see you at the end of the year again. When all the happy thoughts and feelings and everything comes back.

Photo entry's next up I promise! Now it's just boring wordswordswordswordswords. Hahaha.

Happy Chinese New Year to all my fellow tong2 bao1 (sorry no Chinese characters now. currently in school library)! Gong xi gong xi! Xin nian le yang yang!

I really hope Dunedin's got some awesome CNY celebration. Or else, I will never forgive myself for coming back so early. Grrrr.

小妹妹！

P.S. RAMBLINGS AHEAD.


I'm 21 this year.



What? Very surprising meh?!!

Well, actually, if you WERE surprised, then, haha, you're not alone. -grumbles-

'You are not aloneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee' -hums Michael Jackson's song- HAHA.


Anyway! Back to my point!

Can you actually believe that at my workplace, more than 2 pharmacists actually call me 小妹妹？！

OMG LAH.

It's either 小妹妹，Ah Girl, 小姐，or anything that goes along that line and telling me straight in the face that I'm a VERY EXTREMELY YOUNG GIRL.

Some even thought I WAS WAITING FOR MY O LEVEL RESULTS!

!!!!!

They're not even talking about A LEVELS okay!

救命啊！

Please tell me that I don't look like a 16 yo little girl. (don't snigger while you tell me so)

Just because I don't put make up (make up is damn bad for your skin lah omg. put only when it's necessary and when you REALLY feel like putting, which is like everyday for my crazy sis lah wth) and I like tying my hair up and hanging my hairband on my neck, does that make me look more immature...?

ARGH.

You know what I feel like saying to them?

'Eh, SORRY AH AUNTY, but I'm 21 yo this year, and not some immature little 小妹妹 please?'

Maybe I should scare them tomorrow, like tie my hair up into 2 pony tails - one on each side of my head, and wear some crazy colourful puffy dress (which I don't even have wth).

I think they'll just like that I'm some siao zhabor who ran out of Hougang chalet.


~*~*~*~*~*

I had an awesome time with Eifer today. It was just chatting and chatting and chatting non stop lah. -non stop hits man- I had fun girls! Hope you all like the presents I got for you. (: And thank you QI for offering me the handphone chain thingy.. Hehe. It's really pretty lahhhh. Crystaljade-d and Starbucks-ed tonight plus a great deal of lame-ness and chatting. I know I'd be super sad cos I won't be able to celebrate (maybe) all of your 21st birthdays... -SIGHS BIG TIME- And you guys can't celebrate mine too............ ):

为什么这样子。。。

~*~*~*~*~*

HAPPY 21st BIRTHDAY, MY DEAREST NIENNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!

I LOVE YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Haha!

Muahmuahmuahmuahmuah!

OUT!

BACK AND WORKING.

Hi people. Yes, I'm back in Singapore and I got a job at the hospital, like.. Finally.

I've been so busy with work , but I quite like being busy, at least I'm not slacking and lazing around. (: I'm currently working as a pharmacy assistant, so I gotta pack medicine for the pharmacists who will dispense them to the patients waiting outside. So I gotta stand for at least 7-8 hours. Yeah, it's quite bad for my feet (they hurt soooo much can), but I gotta 忍.


忍忍忍忍忍忍忍忍忍.

Too bad I don't quite like the mentality of the people working there. Oh well! I'm just a temp, so it's okay. I guess tomorrow and Friday would be even busier!!! I hope they'll get more people to help out.

OKAY, ENOUGH OF MY JOB. Hong Kong was DAMN fun can... Even though it was a short trip, I managed to catch up with all my relatives, and YES, shopping like no one's businessssss!

-bounces around the room-

Haha, actually I didn't think we spent THAT much (except for my Lesportsac sweeties). We got out alot from Hong Kong, not just the food (dimsumdimsumdimsum, gai dan zai omg my favourite, dai ga lok!, steamboat with a different style, chinese restaurants, seafood restaurants omgggg), but also the clothes and accessories and bags and what nots. It was terrific. I haven't been back for 3 years, and for my sister, 5, so it was so great going back to see my aunties and uncle and cousins and grandparents. It was so difficult saying goodbye, because we only meet once every few years... AWW, I miss them already. Till we meet again, relatives of HK. Lol.

Okay! TV time for me. Relac relac abit before going to sleep. (: I miss all of you out there!! My chatterbox's veen very quiet aye? Are all of you aliveeee? Lol. HI ALL!

Alright, toodles for now. lalala-

Oh, photos ah? I haven't gathered all the photos yet, so I'll post them up later. (: Hehe.

Fly me away!

Off to Hong Kong for 5 days! Don't miss me too much, guys! :D

@ Indulgz Bistro + extras.

Indulge in the yummy food.. HAHA.

Clar, Qi and I!

So Clar, Qi and I met up at Indulgz Bistro for dinner! Qi and I read about this restaurant from Xiaxue's blog (okay, I'm definitely not an avid reader of her blog), so we decided to try it!

I absolutely LOVE the Tomato and Basil soup! It's really really really yummy. Qi and I couldn't stop scooping from the bowl. Hahaha. I was actually quite disappointed with the Deep-fried Camembert Cheese with Berry Compote. 3 of us thought it was too salty for us!!! I don't like salty food personally, so I only had 1 piece.

I had the Oxtail Stew! I really like the sauce with it, but after several mouthfuls I got quite sick of it.. :\ Claressa and Qi had the Butterfish Steak! In my opinion, it's very nice, because the taste of it is not too bland and not too rich, just right!

After the mains, Qi and I tried the Strawberry Cheesecake. Didn't really like the strawberry paste on top of it, too sour! When eaten with the cheesecake, the strawberry flavour covers the taste of cheese. So we just took the strawberry spread away and had the cheesecake itself. It's not too bad actually.

So, overall, I think it's quite a nice restaurant to visit. The atmosphere is ambient, and the place is clean and modern, so it's quite good for couples actually. Haha. The above review is only from my point of view, so if you disagree with me, maybe we ordered different dishes/our tastes are just different! (:

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

3 pairs for only $5!! OMG!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

@ Jack's BBQ party!

OUT!

Boy Schools

I had a chance to pick my brother up from school the other day, and honestly speaking, I haven't seen SO MANY boys in the same place at the same time in my entire LIFE.

I saw the littlest Primary 1 boys HOLDING HANDS with each other (uber cute!), as they snaked their way down the stairwell towards the canteen to have their lunch break. They all looked so tiny and innocent! Some of them were probably only 1.1m tall! I kept commenting to my maid that they were SO cute and I just wanted to pinch their cheeks! The older ones were less cute, but still adorable. Haha. Because they're more independent, you would see their heads bobbing up and down, looking for their parents/domestic maid to pick them up from school. Some just walked out of school with their friends.

It's just crazy to see the range of school bags they have! For the younger ones, there's still the usuals - Pokemon, Power Ranger, Bobdog, oh, and those oh-so-famous TROLLEY BAGS! HAHA!!!! I even saw one chubby boy dragging his trolley bag down as he walked down the stairs. It's super funny, I tell you. And for the older ones like Jonathan (omg I really don't think Jon is very old, but well, older than the rest of them since he's P6), there's CRUMPLER, Billabong, Quiksilver etc. I think I saw at least 5 with Crumpler bags. No wonder Jonathan wanted a Crumpler bag SO MUCH. These kids sure know how to appreciate branded goods.

I don't know how many of them were in the canteen! There were just hundreds and hundreds of them streaming in and out of the place! I must say that Catholic High Primary's intake is super huge lah. You could also smell the stench from all the BOYS. omgomgomg. Very stinky indeed. Imagine those boys playing soccer during recess, then perspire like pigs then go back to class again for the rest of the day. Man.... I can't imagine. Me in a mixed school for 4 years was enough man.

Back in MY days, my primary school had only 3-5 classes per standard. 97 graduated from my standard. That's how small the intake is. Haha.

All I can say is, I hope those Cat High boys won't come out from that school being some loser despos, so hated by so many people, especially those from mixed schools. Some of them act as if they haven't seen a girl before. Eew, GROSS!

OUT!

'Hi, er, who are you?'

Been really busy these 2 weeks. So updates won't be as regular as before...

I like meeting up with people I haven't seen in a while, but sometimes, it would be better off not meeting old friends. Especially old flames. Hahahaha. I'm joking.

I know I've been away from Singapore for a whole 3 years, so some friends of mine eventually become acquaintances. Or just someone I see in Friendster who just added photos. (ROFL!) Honestly, every time when I'm out, I will tend to spot people whom I once knew. Somehow, something just held me back from saying 'Hi!' to them, just not sure what it is. I guess it's just the fear of them not being able to remember me.

Imagine this scenario: You see this friend you haven't seen in 4 years. This friend used to be really good friends with you when you were in the same secondary school. Somehow or other, you 2 lost contact but have each other's FRIENDSTER (haha, don't know why I had to bring that in. this shows how inefficient friendster actually is. it's just a medium for people to post their oh-so-pretty photos and oh you've been clubbing alot lately kinda photos. rofl). You 2 were like 10 metres away from each other, yet you had to pretend you didn't see him/her because of this stupid awful feeling that he/she won't be able to recognize you. But you have to admit that it'd be so embarrassing if your so called friend FORGETS YOUR NAME. Or maybe don't even recognize you because you've changed so much (like changing from specky to contacts, short to long hair, no make up to with make up, fit to flabby. whichever way you wanna put it.)

I think that's what I'm afraid of.

But I can't stand it!!!! You don't know how much I'd like to go up to them and say 'Hello! Remember me?' However, at the same time, I wouldn't wanna get a 'NO, crazy girl!' as an answer.

Tough, hoh?

Gees. I still think Friendster is not a very good way to keep in touch with your friends. But I still do enjoy looking at people's profile and testimonials and photos. Friendster-ing can get me laughing for nothing man. Seriously. How fun is that.

Another thing is that I lost some of my friends' contact numbers, and when they txt or call me, I'd be so paiseh cos I had to ask who they are... And 2 of my friends tried to be funny. 1 claimed to be a Bruce Li and pretended to hook me up (don't worry, he was too lousy lah. i exposed him almost right away. lol. find me someone who really has that name), and the other pretended to be another friend of mine whom I'm not very close with. Hurhurhur. Nvm, they're such entertainers, seriously. Oh, and I don't have caller ID either. So if you call my cell and I go 'Er, who are you ah?', DON'T BLAME ME PLEASE! I've been scolded several times already loh... Mum doesn't wanna pay $5 for my caller ID, so I'll have to make do without it.

That's what problems a student who studies overseas encounters. Or maybe just me.

OUT!

Lost.

PLEASE tell me that I'm the most direction-less person in the WORLD. (I really hope Joan isn't reading this!!)

Today I met Joan and Shuo for dinner and shopping at Marina Square. Had dinner at Xin Wang Hong Kong Cafe. Honestly speaking, there is definitely a variety of food there - you can even get western meals and spagetti and baked rice there, but the food there to us was just so-so. In Cantonese (since we're in a HK cafe), ma3 ma1 dei2 lah~~~ (so-so in Cantonese. I think the 汉语拼音 is so right loh. HAHA). That's our review, so if you really like that place, then maybe we ordered different dishes! (: Oh, can I also add that a few of their staff members are actually people from Hong Kong?! The waitress who attended to us couldn't even understand what we were saying! I was speaking in perfect English, and she was like, "HUH.....?" plus a very blur looking expression. She needed a true Singaporean waiter to translate it into Canto for her before she could finish taking our orders. They need to be trained to understand our Singaporean accent! Hehe, that's just my suggestion.

Joan was talking to her sweetie, while Shuo and I just took some photos. Surprisingly, not many photos today! We had SO much to talk man.

After all the shopping (I BOUGHT 4 pairs of earrings for about $7!!!! Incredibly cheap man. Go to Fresh Profusion at Marina Square! 3 pairs for only $5!!), Joan went home by MRT, while lazy Shuo and I decided to take bus service 851 home since it stops directly in front of our houses. We found the bus stop going AWAY from our house, but the road was one way, so we didn't know where the opposite bus stop was. So we asked this lady at the bus stop, who appeared to be nice and friendly. We followed her directions and realised that there wasn't any bus 851! So we asked ANOTHER lady if she knew. She pointed to another direction and off the silly girls went. We found almost 4 bus stops, and NONE with 851. The closest we got was 857, which also goes to Yishun. Doesn't stop at my place, so we decided not to take it. And finally, we admitted defeat. WE WERE LOST. IN SINGAPORE. FOR A WHOLE HOUR.

By then, I was too tired to walk anymore. We walked all the way from City Hall MRT station, to Funan the IT mall, to SMU, to YWCA, to the National Museum, to Paradiz Centre, to Cathay Cineplex, to Plaza Singapura. We tried waiting for a taxi at the taxi stand outside Paradiz Centre, but all the taxis were ON CALL!!! Never mind... So we walked and walked and walked until my feet were KILLING me. We waited at PS taxi stand and finally got a cab! You don't know how HAPPY we were. Thank you Shuo for accompanying me. Yes, I know I wasted so much of your STUDY time (lol.), but friends stick with each other even when we're in trouble, like when we're lost right? Haha. If Joan reads this, we'd be laughingstocks!! FOR LIFE! Oh yeah, and I'm writing this in my blog. Right in front of so many other pairs of eyes. We're scarred, Shuo! Aiyah, never mind lah. Anyway, 我是出了名的 LOST GIRL! No one can ever beat me. Hur hur, so proud of it somemore.

OUT!

Janice's poor slippers and huge sambal fish

Got HALVED! Damn, it was funny.

She managed to finish most of it. Great job, Janice.

Oldies.

us in our jc uniforms (well, for 3 of us) / MDM TAN!

Racial Harmony Day 2002

OLD PHOTOS, with OLD MEMORIES I hold tightly. I personally ADORE the last 2 photos. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Racial Harmony Day 2002. That's 4+ years ago.

I'm still happy to say that all of us are still very good friends. (: Go ad infinitum/eifer*07!

Grr.

NOTICE: RAMBLINGS ahead. (BEEP BEEP! Stop reading if you don't read RAMBLINGS, like B**j**n. -lizard noise- HAHAHAHAHAHA. Inside joke.)

I've been a SLOTH the whole week. (I tried looking for a nice picture of a sloth, but turns out all of them look AWFUL. So, being a sloth is bad.) Anytime soon you'll see Jessica the bouncing fishball because she'll grow fat and flabby and somehow have alot more 弹性 such that she can bounce really high. Hur hur hur.

The cousin outing today was slightly different, because we had our other cousin, Wei Lin with us! We had lunch at Fish n' Co @ Wheelock Place and Wei Lin ordered fish and chips which took the LONGEST to come. I bet they forgot about her order! They should've given her a complimentary drink or something mah, how rude. Oh, and did I mention about Janice's dish? So funny. She ordered sambal fish, and it turned out to be this gigantic fish with sambal sauce on top. So when her dish came we were all stunned. Hahaha. She managed it quite well with the help from Ning, so it was all gooood.

It's a pity Wei Lin had to leave halfway, and Janice leaving for work. The weather totally spoilt my shopping in TOWN again. Grr. Don't know why but I felt super tired today, so I had to take a cab home with Jon after that. OH, can I add that Ya Kun's barley drink is like DAMN good?! Wei, Tuck and Jon don't really like it, but Ning and I were like '!!!!'. It's different from the normal barley drink because they added something like beancurd skin inside. I really like it, you guys should go try it. Yeah, I also realised that the majority of us dislike the drink, BUT who cares? The both of us like it alot. Hahaha.

Talking about TOWN aka Orchard area, I'm getting real sick of that place cos' I went there almost every alternate day the past week! OMG, and the place I'm really sick of right now is TAKASHIMAYA and maybe WISMA, cos' those 2 are the only places I can go to via the underpass from the MRT station. The rain prevented me from going to places like Far East Plaza and Paragon and those other places lah. But, please, no more town for me for the next 2 weeks. I need new places to go to, like the extreme north (CAUSEWAY POINT!), south (SENTOSA!), east (TM!) and west (JURONG POINT!).

The dark clouds came back yet again! haterainhaterainhaterainhaterain. All the fans of the Korean artiste, Rain, would be plotting to kill me right now. I meant the rain falling from the clouds, so don't have to go all wild.

This coming week's gonna be so busy again. It's good being busy, but I can see the hole in my pocket burning even more. Burn like an eternal flame. OMG I'm so LAME someone please shut me up. My cousins would be thinking 'AS IFFFFFFFFFFFF' right now, BUT the money my parents gave me is just untouchable!! Grrrr. Mum didn't OFFICIALLY give me pocket money for the week again, and I don't feel like using the money Dad gave me cos I'm saving it for something else. Should I just use the rest of the money mummy gave me? TEMPTED. She'll kill me for that, so I better just use Dad's money first.. -sniff sniff- There goes my shopping money...

The birkies I've been wanting to spree with Stephie and Mel is STILL NOT HERE. I'm getting impatient..........

My primary school friend just invited me to her 21st birthday party! How cool is that?! We've known each other since Primary 1, so that's almost 14 years of friendship man. Can't wait to meet the usual clique again. It's been awhile, jaac. (:

I miss Ben. I hardly see him anymore. At most thrice a week. We used to see each other everyday and I don't ever get sick of him. ): When he goes into NS, I don't know who's gonna suffer more. I'll still be in NZ, while he stays in Singapore to serve the country. FOR 2 YEARS and maybe moreeee! LDRLDRLDR. I've heard both good and bad stuff about long distance relationships. Damn, the premature worrying started 12 months early. NOOOO.

P.S. Very random post, but you can't ask much from me at time 0040.

Say Ooh la la to DESSERTS again!

Bakerzin-ed last Friday! Yes, another good dessert place found. And again with Qi. (:

We ordered 3 tapas/sorbet (ONLY $9.80, please!) - Banana pizza with cinnamon ice cream (needed to boost my potassium! Haha), Mango passion sorbet (DAMN NICE), and Coupe Cheesecake (THE CRUMBS, omg..). We also ordered waffle with ice cream. We were filled to the BRIM by the time we finished our last mouths. Too much to indulge in? Definitely not. It's too good not to try, people.

All of them were very very good, except for the waffle.. A little burnt. But nevertheless, -all added to my favourites list already. Haha.

SUPER. GOOD.

The desserts.

My eyes got cut off cos of the collage. Hahaha.

Wanna see how good the desserts were?

Check out our animated pictures drawn by me. Hahaha. Still alot to improve. Not even 1% anime artist yet. :P

More facial expressions! Not bad, our facial muscles are working just fine. Hahaha.

Thanks for the evening, Qi! (:

I absolutely love the view from the top! Paragon's interior is very pretty.

OUT!
