Dear went shopping with his campmates & bought a bottle of moonflower perfume from bodyshop for me not knowing tat i already have one at home. The one i have is still 3/4 full after using for sooo long, dun know when i can ever finish using these 2 bottles of perfume. Aniway, thanks dear.
27 Aug (Sat)
Dear & i took train to the east together on sat morning, he attended some briefing at kallang while i went shopping at paya lebra. Bought some causal & working clothings from this fashion & then met dear after his briefing. Took train & head down to bugis junction. Went straight to addidas to find e pink cap tat i like but they dun have it there. So disappointing! So dear suggested tat we go suntec & buy since initally we saw the cap there. Yeah & we walk to suntec city.
Reach there le, but in e end nv buy.. Cos dun feel like buying liao. hehe. Silly rite? Walked all the way then dun buy. After tat, walked ard suntec, had our late lunch & then went to buy some groceries from carrefour, bought alot of cheese sausages & other stuffs & then home sweet home.
Later in the nite, nothing much to do so slack at home & watch EPL with dear.
28 Aug (Sun)
Sunday morning woke up early, prepare myself, packed my bag & went down to sentosa to look for dear. ( I feel i'm becoming more & more independent le, in the past everywhere i go to i wan ppl to accompany me. Nw i won't mind travelling alone. At times, it's gd to do things alone but having lunch, watching movie & gg shopping alone is definately a no no for me.)
Dear was there to participate for the New Balance Real Run. Reach ther ard 10:30am, dear already finish the run. Had our lunch at one of e food centre (damn ex, $5 for a bowl of normal noodles) along with a few of his campmates & then took shuttle bus straight to sunset bay. Played beach volleyball, frisbee & pool, saw a few of my colleagues there as well. So coincident~
Was under the sun for a long time & ytd's sun rays was very strong & thus causing me to have a very bad headache. Worst still, din put on any sun protection.. After dinner at burger king, dear & i took cab home. On e way, drop by at Mt Faber Safra to help my bro collect movie vouchers. Reach home, bathe & immediately went to take a nap.
Sentosa would be another hangout place for dear & myself. Anyone interested to go sun-tanning & beach volleyballing with us?
Pictures! Pictures! Pictures!

22 August 2005 (Monday)
It feels gd when everyone else is at work while u are at home slacking on a weekday. hehe. Took leave ytd because got oral exam at yuhua sec in e afternoon. All i can say is i did extremely badly for the oral. I was very nervous & was trembling all the way. Haiz.. nw have to really prepare myself for the written paper in nov. After the oral which was ard 3 plus, took cab home rest awhile then in the evening went over suntec to look for my bei yi (small aunt).
Dear was gd enough to accompany me there even though he was reluctant to do so. Shop ard suntec, bought a gio three-quater pants & spotted a pink cap from adidas tat i like alot. Bei yi helped dear & myself trim our hair & then treated us to dinner at a steamboat restaurant opposite pacro bugis junction. Each person $10 only, the steamboat ther considered nt bad. Had a very full & enjoyable dinner with my bei yi. After dinner walked to bugis mrt station & then took train home. Reach home abt 12 plus, quickly bathe then went to bed le.
~*~
Friday nite went to buy nasi lemak from the famous stall at boon lay food centre. As usual there was already a long queue when we reach ther but luckily it was quite fast, waited for abt 10 to 15 mins only. Bought the food home, eat & then slack at dear's house.
Saturday morning had to wake up early cos meeting one of my colleague from HR dept to watch badminton competition held by my company's recreation club. 2 of my colleagues participating so popped by to watch them play since it's just at the sports hall at my central. Went for breakfast first cos still not their turn yet, stayed till ard 12 plus then went off le, in the end none of them win. Met dear for shopping at Bishan Junction 8, been ages since we went there cos it's so damn far. Wah!! Got alot of things to shop there wor, bought a top from FOX again. hehe.. Came upon this stall which i find very interesting & i havent seen something like tat else where which help ppl to make figurine. The figurine comes in individual, couple or group. Very very nice wor but the price also very steep, two hundred plus.
I like this one the most, so sweet~ Imagine having ur faces on these figurine, so nice rite? But too bad too ex lei, if not i wanna make one figurine with dear & my face on it.
Refer to this webbie for more info: http://www.unusually.com.sg/
After our shopping, we took train to yio chu kang. Speaking of this i'm SOOOO MAD! Dear was suppose to go to play some bb competition, he agreed to play out of goodwill because the xyz coach told his coach he got not
enough players to play. Ok ok.. come to tat later, we reach yio chu kang mrt station le, called the xyz coach ask him where is the exact location then he says it's somewhere near yishun. So we took train to yishun then the stupid idiot coach call again to say it's at yio chu kang. F**k! He think very fun to travel here & there is it? As a coach he should know very clearly where the competition is held rite? Ok.. nvm! Reach yio chu kang stadium, can't find the damn basketball ball court, dear & i very pek che already.
Finally found it, watched the other teams played first cos the coach & his players nt here yet. Ok.. finally came, he says have to ask the organisations whether can add in their names anot cos quite last min so intially din add in their name during registration. In e end can't play! Moreover he already got enough players le still ask them to play. His management really sux, can't he called up the organistation & ask first then ask them to come down. Waste our time! Really very jia lat! Took leave specially to go dw in the end cannot play. Dear din play for them aso gd lah, their team cannot make it. We stayed to watch 1st half, they already lose till very jia lat! Gd luck to them. Wahaa haa~

Today was rather a fun day at work reason is because in the late afternoon we did a MTV shooting in the office. The MTV was meant to be broadcast during my company annual dinner & dance held on 29 Oct. Amtek's 35th anniversary which was gg to be held at swissotel. Actually i'm considered very lucky, always got chance to attend company D & D. This would be the 2nd D & D i attended.
Okies.. back to the shooting of MTV, damn hilarious. We were ask to wear many funny funny props & then ask to sing some songs. The managers also joined in the shooting as well, can really get to see a very different side of them, not like the usual serious look. They joined in the fun & act according to wat the cameraman wans. I was asked to stand in front cos i'm short then the camera keep zooming into my face & i kept avoiding the camera. Outcome sure very funny one~
~*~
I really dun know wat to say, the results was far too shocking. I guess alot of ppl would have the same feeling.. Why? Why is Junyang being voted out? OMG! I really cant believe it! Junyang is already tat close to becoming the winner & ultimately the Superstar. Really very ke xi to have lose in the final round. It's really a waste to let someone with soo much talent to be voted out just because he is not as popular as his competitor.
Sometimes i wonder, most of the ppl tat voted for weilian is it really because of sympathy or is he so popular? I think they voted to let him win because they wan to prove tat handicap ppl can also go against all odds & acheive their dreams. It's hard for me not to think whether there is any marketing strategy behind in letting weilian emerge as the male winner.
1st Sept who is gg to be crown as 'Superstar'? I hope ppl will really vote for who they think deserves to win this competition & not out of sympathy~
~*~
because on tues we just booked a chalet room at east coast park during christmas period together with shiling & jixiang. Haven't been to chalet for a long long time le. Yipee! It's alittle too early but we dun wanna end up like last year where we couldn't booked any chalet room cos all were fully booked. Furthermore, nw got promo so quickly booked. Hehe.. dun need to worry abt where to celebrate our christmas this year~ But have yet to start planning fer the chalet cos still a couple of months away, will plan at a later date.
Another happy note, long weekend is coming~ Yeah! I'm on leave on mon cos need to take eng oral exam. Dear is off on mon as well, isn't tat something to me happy abt?
Well, wish me luck fer the oral exam on mon. Feels so weird gg back to sch taking exam after so long.

13 Aug 2005 (Saturday)
Bought a pair of earrings & a demin mini skirt from cck ytd & then met dear at JP for another round of shopping. Shop for awhile only cos dear is sick, it's all because of the briefing he had to conduct, shouting in front of 200 over ppl & thus causing discomfort in his throat. Nw he's voice is so hoarse & sexy. And due to the fact tat he was sick, so we couldn't go ecp for cycling. So disappointing! Actually dun go also gd lah, cos in the evening he have to go dw bukit gombak for basketball selection to represent gombak compete with other GRC. But the weird thing is we belong to nanyang how can represent gombak? Unless they are from the same GRC, watever! I dun know anything abt these GRC thingy, aniway it's his basketball coach recommend one. After shopping, went home, rest, relax, watch tv, eat & then sleep~

Couldn't go ecp so dear replace ecp with shopping to make me happy. Went JP sports connection check out price for camping tent, still considering whether wan to buy anot. Walk ard, had some snacks then took train to westmall. Wanted to buy working clothes but can't find any nice & fitting one.. sianz. Still got time to kill so went mac & share a meal. The whole day i already got intention of tagging along to the bb selection to see him play le cos very long nv see him play ball then last min he ask me nt to go. No idea y he doesn't wan me to tag along, he says he feels weird & stress with me watching him play but in the past in SP i also watch him play in competitions wat. Lame excuse! I guess he mus be worried tat i might do silly stunts like taking camera to shoot them cos i joked with him then i will be shooting them while they were playing. I know i like to shoot here shoot there but i really din bring my cammi out today. Since he dun wan me to tag along so i din went. Sob Sob~ Went JP for another thorough round of shopping myself & then went home. Dun know if he got into the selection anot? *thinking*
Hopefully tml will be a PEACEFUL day at work, heard tat the overseas meeting my bosses went to din went well. So hopefully tml he won't shoot arrow at us.

After work, went home bath & then catch charlie & the chocolate factory at JP ytd evening with Shiling & ji xiang. Haven't had time for dinner, so we bought macdonalds into the cinema. The show is nt tat fantastic though, dun think it's worth $9.50 watching it. But we did enjoy the show, laughing each time when the Oompa-Loompas came out to sing those silly song. Shiling bought us each a polo tee from bangkok, thanks thanks. Told her we r planning to go in dec so she suggest tat we go together in jan. Yipee!
I've been pestering dear to go east coast park & sentosa for weeks & weeks but he just dun wanna go. Reason is because he's gg ecp every sat for army half marathon training which cause him to have phobia in gg there. Nonetheless, i'm gg to pester him to go ecp tml.. hehe.

Arghh!! Derrick is out of project superstar! I felt so disappointed when they annouced the results & i cried when he was telling his parents he did something proud fer them. I really like his voice & his style of singing thou the judges always say his singing is nt clear. So nw only left junyang & weilian fighting for the Superstar title. Who will it be? I think it's junyang but weilian stands a very gd chance as well with so many ppl voting for him. Superstar is a whole package, singing, apperance & of course rapport.
As fer the gals, silver was obviously the weakest among the rest, so sort of guess she will be voted out. Kelly has always been the strongest one but xinhui is catching up on her. Really hope kelly will win~ Next week's show is gg to be very very exciting!

I've been down
Now I'm blessed
I felt a revelation comin' around
I guess it's right
It's so amazing
Everytime I see you' I'm alive
You're all I've got
You lift me up
The sun and the moonlight
All my dreams are in your eyes
I wanna be inside your heaven
Take me to the place you cry from
Where the storm blows you away
I wanna be the one to hold you
Every bit of air you're breathing in
A soothing wind
I wanna be inside your heaven
When minutes turn to days and years
If mountains form I'll still be here
Holding you until the day I die
I wanna be inside your heaven
Take me to the place you cry from
Where the storm blows you away
I wanna be inside your heaven
Take me to the place you cry from
Where the storm blows you away
I wanna be the one to hold you
Every bit of air you're breathing in
A soothing wind
I wanna be inside your heaven
Oh yes I do
I wanna be inside your heaven

Jurong east was packed with lotsa ppl ytd due to the celebrations at heartland. I dropped by to view the static display put up by maju camp. Dear's helping out, so went over to see how he's doing as well as to see how his camp conduct IPPT. The equipment they use are pretty high-tech, met a few of his colleagues & his warrant officer.
Dear & i each bought a t-shirt with pics of all the SOC grounds on it for $10 each, donations will go to the relavant army charity organisations. Walked ard the rest of the exhibitions, bought a pair of pink earrings from aries & then took train to cck. Had our early dinner at cck food court first before taking shuttle bus to Farmart. Tried on some clothings at sense, saw a nice demin mini skirt there, still thinking whether i should buy it.
Not much ppl at Farmart cos maybe all stayed at home to watch ndp. Ytd was a gd day, the two of us caught 11 prawns & the first prawn dear caught was damn huge. But too bad dun have colour tag on it, if nt can refund $40. hehe.. Brought the prawns back home & ask dear's dad to cook for us. He used the prawns to cook drunken prawns, nice nice wor.. much better than the other time we ate at sheng siong.
It's the middle of the week & i'm back at work once again. Feeling abit sian but nvm.. weekends are coming soon! 2 more days to weekend, dear's off again on sun.. YIPEE!

Ytd was a boring boring sunday, went JP for some shopping, had our late lunch at long john silver then took bus to arena country club. Planning was to go bowling but end up went to the arcade centre to play some lame games. Boring! Boring! Dun wanna go ther again, nothing to do one, no nice scenery to take photos as well. After tat went to had our dinner at the food center next to arena then went home le.
Maybe because the past weekends were line up with lotsa fun activities which makes my weekend always so enjoyable. And nw tat this weekend was alittle dull so i will feel kinda sian. Am i expecting too much? Mus be having too much fun over the past weekends & thus feeling this way.
~*~
Ytd was a shopping day for eileen & myself, went shopping at taka & wisma. Went to the toys fair at taka as well, saw a nice pair of soft toy meant for wedding selling at $12 only. So cheap! But din buy cos nobody getting married lei. Had some light snack before heading to the train station for marina square. On the way there, pass by FOX which was having 50% discount & additional 20% if purchase 3 items & above. And i bought all together 3 tops ( 1 spaghetti, 1 halter & 1 tupe top), hehe.. damn happy with the purchase. All tat for $19.20 only, cheap bargin. *happy happy*
1. Cute pair of wedding soft toys from taka toys fair2 - 4. Tops i bought from FOX
After tat, met ling & elvin at the control station before taking train to marina square together. Walk ard marina square first before gg to watch fireworks display. The weather ytd was so humid, all of us were feeling hot, hungry & our feets were aching like hell due to the long standing & the shopping in the afternoon. Waited & waited for the fireworks & then it finally started but was rather disappointed. Cos we couldn't see much from esplanade. Still rmb last year's national day, dear & i watched the fireworks togther with ling & elvin, it was so beautiful cos the place where the fireworks were being fired is just right in front of us & the glitters since to b falling onto us. Magnificent sight! After tat went back to marina food court for dinner, had korean chicken ramen, first time trying- still not bad. Walk ard for awhile then it was home sweet home. Reach home, bath & then went straight to bed le. Dear went prawn fishing with his friends, i din go cos i was too tired & those gg are all guys, not convenient for me to tag along. Ytd was a tired but happy shopping day~
~*~
After work, met the gals for dinner at great world's ichiban boshi on tue nite. Ling & i went to walk ard first while waiting for eileen to knock off. Saw a pair of nice earrings at Montip, thinking abt whether i should go back & buy. As usual, order sushi, chit-chat & take photos. The chanwanmushi they serve there is really delicious, hot from the oven. Though it's ex but it's highly recommened.
Ocassional meet-ups to update each other abt our lives is wat kept our friendship gg for so many years. I'm really glad tat though each of us is so bz with our own lives but we still make a pt to meet up at least once a month. Cheers to our friendship! Meeting the gals this weekend for shopping & fireworks watching. Yipee! High up on my shopping list are bag, shoes, working clothes & accessories. Pay day is near~

Today is excatly 1 year since i blog. So fast! This blog of mine contains all the happy, sad, gd & bad times tat i've been through this whole year. Looking back at my past entries really bring back alot of fond memories. I can't imagine wat will happen if one day all my blog entries are missing, i think i will cry~
~*~
Was blog-hopping & came to a blog with pics of brisbane. And thennnn.... looking at the pics make me realise how much i MISSSSS Brisbane city, Gold Coast & of course Surfer's Paradise. OMG~
It's prawn catching at Farmart ytd afternoon once again. hehe. Initally got plans to go fishing at lim chu kang one but last min change of plan. The 4 of us really addicted to prawn catching le, jia lat~ Everytime we go fishing sure spend alot of money on fishing expenses, cab fare & dinner. Fishing expenses alone is already very ex. Haiz.. Next week during National Day, dear & i gg to go again cos got some on-going events. But this time round jixiang & shiling nt joining us cos shiling is in bangkok.
The prawn pond in farmart is so much better than the one in taman jurong. The one in taman is not only diff to catch & it's aso very ex. The prawns there very cunning, so diff to catch them. Ytd nite we caught a total of abt 15 prawns. hehe. Got improvement~ Yeah! Then as usual, went to sheng siong for dinner together with jixiang's bro & cousins. This time round we use our live prawns to cook drunken prawns. Not bad but abit bland cos the ppl there dun know hw to cook.
Another wonderful weekend with dear & friends again. Weekends are definately worth looking fwd to after a whole week of hard work. So nw it's pics of our fun adventure~ Here we go!
