work or play?

Dear Blog.

juggling with lots of things recently..

1) schooling (attending lectures and tutorials in school)

2) tuitioning kids :) (extra income to my miserable weekly allowance and i'm enjoying the kids company at times~)

3) driving lessons (extra burden to dad~=x but he promised to pay for my driving lessons and i'm enjoying every lesson~ it's fun!)

4) attending German Course (it's hard to pick up~ but hope i can really understand better & converse in simple German after 10 lessons!)

hmmm.. new year's coming.. i'm in a festive season mood! :D had been clearing up my stomach for the past few days! hahhaaa..hope it can stuff lots of great food during the new year! :)

enjoy every moment! :)

*It's time to start revision soon~ there's still 3 info-system projects hanging~ *

argh.. i have to start my engine soon!

拜金=败金？

亲爱的blog.

昨晚看了《我猜》，节目中介绍了四位拜金女。

她们的拜金程度到了极限，每个的名牌包最少都从20个起跳。。

她们让我联想起来。。

是否每一位女士在生命中，如果有能力承担，起码都要有一个名牌包？

那买了第一个是否又会出现第二、第三。。然后到了无数个？

说实在的，当下的我认为这些拜金女虽然说她们是在崇拜金钱，我认为她们就等于败金，跟败家女没两样。或许我还没开始“欣赏”名牌包如：LV, PRADA 等。。可能三五年后的我会改观。。开始买我的第一个名牌包，这也说不定。其实我认为那些设计传统的名牌包有些土，基本上没有什么突破。所以我一直都不明白为什么会有那么多的“贵妇”为之疯狂。

。

。。

。。。

。。。。

。。。。。

。。。。

。。。

。。

。

我的定论。。。

拜金=败金

恐怕将来我也会拜金。。

ohhh..

我不要！！

我不要败给金钱！！

woohh.. feeling very heaty since last week.. i tink even earlier, when i mentioned that i've got poisoned lips more than a week ago.. should have went to see a doctor earlier.. then won't feel so bad now~ but hopefully the chinese medicine will clear all the heatiness in my body and i can enjoy all the great food during new year

have to be grateful that i'm sick now..rather than during the festive season.. Smile

yesterday..

started my German class finally~ yea.. the pronounciation is very hard and very different from english.. felt like i'm learning an alien language..hahaa.. it's soo hard to pick up~ i saw linda wrote some chinese characters next to some german words in order to perfect her pronounciation.. hahaa.. then i copied this idea from her too.. hehee.. anyway, my uncle seems to be quite happy that i'm learning german.. :) he offered to lend me his german-english dictionary! :) yeah! hope i can converse in german with him in the near future~ hehee.. though i think he also half bucket full~ :P but nevertheless.. really admired that he understand that language~

anyway, bought 2 pairs of spectacles yesterday.. wooohhooo.. hope that nobody's gonna complain that i've got bad taste for both of them.. spent $168 on both pairs..one metal the other one plastic..both are black based though they are a little different~ i'm wondering is buying 2 spectacles abit too many..?

i'm hungry AGAIN.. with the medicine making me get rid of all the food i ate almost immediately i ate them..arghh..

Get well soon!-- to me.. :P

have a great spring-cleaning,people!

shopping madness part 2!

Dear Blog.

whee~~ shopping madness! part 1

Dear Blog.

my weekend is filled with shopping shopping and shopping~~ hohoo!! :D

my tuition class on saturday was great.. in fact, much better than my friday class.. partially this class is smaller and the kids are quieter and of cos more attentive~ very on time with schedule (in fact it's faster than expected) and they are quite well-behaved~

met up with linda after tuition and we head down to bugis~ woohh.. 人山人海，水泄不通 are the phrases to describe~ everyone is in town for last minute shopping for Chinese New Year..

searched quite awhile for food and in the end ended up in food junction and had these...

.....

...

attack of the fork and the spoon!

我们迫不及待的表情...

...

展开攻势!!

~Japanese omelette+ hamburger rice~

me.prata.linda

~tissue prata with chocolate sauce~

~yummy~

coincidently met Jessie and her bf at the food junction too~ i feel that her bf looks better after the army haircut..

after our lunch+teatime, we dived right into bugis street.. there's practically too many people there on saturday..lots of barang barang here and there.. but nonetheless.. we bought quite a few pieces of clothes on that day~ yeah!! :)

total damage done: $8.50 on lunch

$5 on belt

$10 on pink dress

$30 on 2 shirts

$7 on 6 donut alike breads

$5 on lipbalm (finally decided to buy it as my lip looks like i got poisoned recently.. hahaa..)

= $65.50

hohohooo...

shall post the donut alike bread..

look here..

mum says i'm crazy taking a picture of the breads.. hehee..

that's about all for saturday activities in bugis~ there's more to come on sunday! =D

pheew..

i'm tired with all the activities i have today..

went home tuition then back home to have porridge for lunch..

then out again for driving lesson..

today learned parking and circuit!

whee!!

but i think i'm lousy~ gonna brush up and be prepared for driving practical test!!

then out again to swimming..

i'm seriously fatter with all the food and suppers in the middle of the night everyday..

swam 16 laps! yea!! :)

alright out for dinner wif parents! i'm VERY hungry!! :P

Dear Blog.

i didn't have dinner before going for tuition today..wanted to buy yam cake before going up but i'll be running late if i'm gg to tabao.. so in the end, i came home and ate lots of biscuits..but the food doesn't seem to fill my stomach.. hahaa.. din dare tell mum about it cos i'll sure get a scolding if she knows.. moreover, she got her problems today too.. better not disturb her and let her rest..

after tuition today, i have been wondering...

how can i shut the mouth of a very talkative and active kid during lesson??

i thought of throwing him out of class, showing him i can be angry too.. but i suppose it will not work..

well, i made him sit in front of me today..

and the conclusion is.. he's still as noisy..

i'm not catching up with the schedule and i need to rush faster to complete my job..

i need to take care of the needs of others who are weaker..

i need them to stop complaining and whining..

i need them to stop minding others' businesses..

i need them to work faster..

i need them to concentrate and listen to me..

most importantly,

i need them to stop talking like nobody's business..

i'm trying my best to HELP~

so...

PLEASE COOPERATE! THANK YOU!

things that i need to do~

~draft out a seating arrangement plan

~find the most effective antidote for "empty vessels"

~give my utmost best

~get out of house by 6.45pm if i'm getting myself dinner

I am trying.

Only you can give me antidote to see results.

(today's post abit abstract..juz wanna present in a different and indirect way)

taxi taxi~

Dear Blog.

today was a tiring day~

dunno why.. maybe not enough sleep~ though sociology lecture in the morning was quite ok.. i felt super tired.. and felt as if the world was spinning..as if Dr Or was speaking some foreign language.. hahaa.. but i tried my very best to keep myself awake..in fact i didn't fall asleep.. hahaa.. :)

so...i jumped straight into my cosy bed after a bath when i got home~soooo dizzy and tired.. then shuang came after she knocked off after work.. while i continued to sleep after opening the door for her.. well.. she entertained herself while i slept like a dead log.. hahaa..

then the best part came.. her dad arrived ard 7.30pm and i shun bian loonbang his car to mrt station.. in the end.. i knew i would be late.. so faster go get a cab at the taxi stand.. wah.. luckily a taxi uncle changed shift at the place i gg.. if not i'll sure be late~ but really very reluctant to give my $$$ to the taxi uncle.. cause it's peak period.. which means there is an extra charge of 35% to the taxi fare i'm paying.. omg..it adds up to $6++.. sadded =X my pocket's burnt.. my heart sank.. hahaa.. painful sia~ (to shuang: dun feel so bad for making me almost late k? u dun wan it to though..)

sidetrack abit.. this is the photo we took at zw hse during her house warming~

~it's been a long time since we took such a group photo~

Dear Blog.

went ziwei's house for house warming on saturday after my tuition..and i met xiu there!! :) it's been a long time since i met her..was really happy to see her there!! :)

when i reached there, they had already finished eating and had started playing monopoly.. then left me alone to go get the food for myself..hahaa.. then took over zw to play monopoly as she needs to entertain her guests.. woah.. it's really fun playing wif my jc friens.. 我们浑身都充满了喜感.. ~hahaa.. though it's juz a normal monopoly game.. we can play until very HIGH.. hahhaa.. really enjoyed that day.. btw, zw's house is really very high up~ the scenery is great and of cos it's super windy.. nice place~ hehe.. tink we will visit her hse quite often next time.. :)

this photo is taken at zw's house corridor..high high on 36th floor~

took this view from zw's room~居高临下的感觉真不错！

this is practically the same pic as the lst one..

juz that it's more artistic~ :)

went to watch movie "I AM LEGEND" with Linda and Dian today.. nice show~ but there's quite alot of sudden movements that scared me and dian out of our wits.. hahaha.. i squeezed her arm super hard that she complained that her blood cannot flow.. hahaa.. and her head hit my shoulder when she saw scary parts in the movie.. hahhaa.. it's really tiring watching such a thrilling movie.. cos i'm basically in a super tense mode during the entire movie~ so drained when the movie ended.

in addition, me and linda signed up for a german course.. 这一步将是我们步入"2"的第一步吧！希望这不会是三分钟热度～也希望能像阿杜的成名曲一样 --“坚持到底”！！　Woohoo.. 加油！！

alright.. that's about it~ good nite and take care pple!

Cheers

EAT.FOOD.EAT. :P part 2

Dear Blog.

gonna blog on my first day of school on wednesday.. which is also Linda's 20th birthday!!

Linda and i met in school after our lessons before we headed down to orchard to meet dian and huiting.. initally me, linda and dianmin planned to watch "i am legend"..but due to unforeseen circumstances, we did not get to watch it in the end..

so... we went to buy linda's present as i had not prepared anything at all.. felt super guilty towards her.. cos i made her walked soo much that her sole hurts and have to make her choose her present instead of giving her a surprise..in the end she chose a big white bag as the present..

after we had our dinner at far east, we headed down to clark quay for the desserts again~ hehee.. omg.. i'm forever writing on food.. all i do is eat. food. eat. food. ... hahaha.. kw is complaining that i'm making her hungry.. hehee.. well.. dun care her.. :P let me continue.. as the night is still young, we sat by the Singapore River and talked for quite awhile.. frankly speaking, sitting by the river side is quite a romantic thing.. the night scenery is beautiful with lights reflecting on the water and there are no other noises coming from the road.. it's just a very good place for heart-to-heart talk and girls talk.. for couples, its a recommended place.. :)

we went to the italian restaurant i mentioned in an earlier post and had desserts there.. this time round, i tried these...

~Apple strudel with a small scoop of ice-cream~

冷配热的组合~不错！3.5/5 ：）

~Tiramisu cake~

looks nice and creamy.. slurp~

and the taste of the coffee is not too strong..

personally not my cup of tea as i dun really like coffee so.. 3.5/5 :)

~lemon pie with a super thick cream on top of it~

dian chose this cake cos we ordered too much sweet desserts already..

i personally like this little cake.. it's simple and nice~ 4/5

dark chocolate cake + ice cream! love it~~

Last but not least.. TADA..

~best fudge cake~

woohoo.. it's the best cake of the day.. all of us like it..

hot fudge cake with a little scoop of ice-cream.. 绝配!! :)

love it! 5/5!!:D

wahhahaa..写到这里，嘴馋的我真想流口水！哈哈！！没办法，我太贪吃了！我是大胃王！！

enough of food.. 是时候谈一谈我的一些感触了．．

其实2008年的第二天我还蛮沮丧的。一来可能是为好友的礼物而烦恼。。二来自己那天的精神也有些欠佳。。

之后回到家想了想。。或许也是因为看见朋友步入20,自己也躲不过这个可怕“2”的到来，所以心里忍不住感到有些“郁郁不得志”。19年就这样不知不觉的蹉跎了过去。。是时候做些东西了。。可是我还没想到应该做些什么。。

不过，我和Linda 约好了要一起学西班牙文，让自己过的更充实！当然希望能够持之以恒和成功啦！:)

wahh.. 真多感触。。希望生日当天不会再有这种纳闷的感觉了，准备迎接 "2"的到来吧！！加油！

PS:我也希望今年能够鼓起勇气参加歌唱比赛哦！:) hehe..

alrite.. that's about it.. hope all of u are having fun and take care k!

the weather's getting very cold and unpredictable these days.. dun fall sick!!

good nite!

EAT.FOOD.EAT. :P part 1

Dear blog.

had a nice brunch during new year day with my aunt's family and my mum.. it's a chinese restaurant selling dian xin and is famous for it's 烧鹅. well, we didn't get to eat the roast goose because they don't have it in the late morning..so.. we had some of the dian xin, peking duck

and these......

Wasabi prawns~

it's special..cos there's the taste of wasabi..but not too strong & just nice..

& most importantly, the prawns are fat, juicy and VERY fresh!! :)

ice-cream in orh bi bei~

it's our dessert after the hearty meal..

the orh bi bei & ice-cream is contained in the empty coconut shell

where it's flesh is so tender & sweet, adding a surprise to it...:)

i shall add ice-cream to my orh bi bei next time!! :)

hahaaa.. i enjoy having great food!! :) happy and contented!

after the meal, we all headed down to jurong west grandma's hse as my mum is meeting the rest of her mahjong kakis for a game of mahjong~

well, after my godfather came, they decided to start and ask me to substitute the one who was late for a little while..

in the end.. the person did not turn up.. and i ended up playing the whole round of mahjong~~ hahaa..so damn stressful with all the pros beside me~ omg..

lady luck was knocking on godfather's door as he kept on winning.. ah gong also had great tiles..mum was alright.. i'm the worst becos my tiles were not gd and quite lousy in fact.. hahhaa.. then my uncle became very worried and he came to sit beside me to aid me.. hahhaa.. thankz a lot!! :) (though i still lose money :P) hahaa.. in the end i lost $40+ bucks to ah gong and he gave me discount by collecting only $20 from me.. hahhaa.. he must be feeling paiseh~scared that he won too much frm me :P but nevertheless.. i've learnt quite abit more about mahjong that day~!

that's about all for the new year day.. wanna update on 2nd jan soon as i went out to celebrate Linda's 20th birthday yesterday.. tired now.. take care my friends.. school's starting soon for some of u~
