Two days of work ended just like that. With me not getting any better. -_-!!

Got more work done today. Especially since I'm in the office whole day today while half the time I am out yesterday.

Had to re-arrange myself. Papers all around and information flying here and there.

Met dar for dinner today. =) So happy.

Lesson today was bored... I really fell asleep! Was teaching equations in the first topic, which we learnt in Secondary school. Then topic two was about Simple interest, compound interest, IRR, Net present value, future value, that kind of stuffs we learn in Poly. Taught by Mr P. Looked so familiar yet strange. lolz.

Bowling tomorrow!!!! And dar dar going to cut his hair tomorrow!!!!!!! Wahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha....

Tutorials to do, work to complete, time to manage. *big sighz*

O ya, some pictures of my beloved teddy bear from Aussie. He had accompanied me throughout my 4-5 days of being sick. And dar had a good time playing with him. My bro too. Cant believe it.



dar communicating with teddy bear

And they happily two gang up against me.. -_-!!

Sometimes I regret studying part-time while working full-time. It literally eats my time and energy away. At times I really feel like giving up. But I know I wont allow myself to do that. Why did I even torture myself like this. Its really horrible. Especially when the lecturers themselves sucks big time. Some are really interesting, like the Accounting lec, I went for every single lesson and stay throughout, unlike the rest.

I do not think I have that energy anymore. The drive that I initially have. Where are the time that I used to have? *mega sighz*

Have yet learn the art of handling all three: work, study and relationship.

Can I really have all three?

I'm trying. But I'm really no good at it. I thought I can handle studies.. But I guess I'm wrong this time round. I no longer have the luxury of energy and time.

It will work out somehow. I know. But how? And how long before it happens?

I cannot and will not give up any of the three...

happy girl now.

the more i see him, the more i dont wanna leave.

it never fails to amaze me.

some times it hurts. but it make me happy. coze hurting means i had given him my everything.


Darren Lee... I love you. I just have to look at you and know that...



Anyway... 3rd day of my MC. Horrible. Bad flu the doc call it. -_-!!

Got really sick of eating med and feeling feverish. Cant do anything beside laying there.

Back to work tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!

Am sick and on the way on recovering..

All started on friday when I felt real cold in office, wearing a total of 4 layers, a spag, my rusty long sleeve, adidas jacket and dar's jacket. Knew the moment I started wearing so much. Even my client say I looked tired and stressed.

Skipped school.

Did my assignment while waiting for dar to go home.

Then sat morning was still ok, fever kicked in in the afternoon. Full combination. Cough, running nose, sore throat and fever.

Almost going no voice now.

Thanks dar. For coming down after your dance to get me dinner and renting VCDs. Thanks for spending your whole sunday with me and looking after me. Thanks for going to the doc with me.. Wont know what to do without him around when my granny is unwell too. And my parents arent in Singapore.

He made me feel so much less un-sick.





camping in front of the tv..

essential items..

Nanny of the Month.


Lunched with bro today with dar. A fun meal I had.

Med made me sleepy. Dar make me awake. =)

Going to be end of the week again.





Every week just passes like this.





And I dont know where all the time goes to.





Never seems to have enough time. Not for dar and my friends and my family.





There's always assignment of some kind.





There's always some dinner or other.





There's always some commitment or another.





Sorry guys if I hadnt been spending enough time for you. Any amount time I have left, I just wanna go home and rot. And not bother to dress up and I know no one will mind.





Feel like just hopping onto a plane and go back to the life in aussie. Carefree & relaxing.



Went doc yesterday. Then dar came to fetch me from the clinic. Passed by this cake shop and bought this really giant cream-puff. Dar got so sick of it coze of the cream. =X Sorry... Coze I said I wanted to eat.

Then he also bought the cookies for us. And I didnt know. -_-!!




i had two.. he had two..

a little heart


I so much prefer the cookie to the cream puff.

Parents flying off tomorrow. *sighz*

Weekend seems so much shorter than weekdays all plus together!

Goodness. Time flies.

Both days dar and i were busy with our assignment!!! What kind of a date is this. -_-!! O well. After 5days long of being outside, we both wanted to be indoor. We are both homey people. lolz.

I swear. Once I finish my assignment, I will be out in town AGAIN! Sucks.

Lucky dar is a homey person too. Whenver I see him, I sleep. lolz.

He pop-ed by my house today. Assignment again. Mum cooked noodles while I cooked a pot of soup. =)

Had a piggy ride from dar. hehe.

I shall start a healthy diet from now on!

And I shall ta-bao more to work more often now. Save $$$.
Full from my late late dinner/supper. *yawn* Was dragging myself back home from the coffeeshop..

Met dar for dinner yesterday before I go for my class. *thanks dar*

While I was having my class, dar was at Holland.V with auntie they all. Poor me was forced to sit through the whole lesson! Lucky it ended early, at 9. Train-ed down then cab-ed down.

For a moment I was scared.

Had a drink and I got tired. =X Slept in the shop while they continue drinking. hehe.

Got an earful from mum. -_-!! Goodness. Sometimes I wonder whether she knowns her own daughter which she always said she does. Yes. She brought me up well. But there's nothing wrong with drinking once in awhile! And god knows how long I had been.

Too tired to argue with her.

Went back to the office for awhile today and off I went to find dar. Tried to nap abit and did my assignment.

Town is nothing compared to dar. =D

dar meeting my parents tomorrow. wahahahahaha.

mum cooking.

Another long day at work. Ever since I took over that particular system, it hadnt been a smooth ride at work. Firefighting everyday. At times it really gets depressing to see that there's nothing much we can do and that internal staffs are not understanding of our situation.

Lucky there are still people who are helpful and willing to teach. I cant wait for the day that I see this system working W-E-L-L and optimize. Its always comforting to know that no matter what happened, your colleagues are always there to fire fight with you, some even willing to block the fire for you. I guess thats the advantage for being a fresh grad while working with people who are old enough to be our parents, grandparents.

Anyway, morning had a meeting (again). One that will even put an outsider off.

But lunch was good. Had it with the customers, one of the supplier. And guess what. At Sentosa Golf Club!!!!! Goodness. I was so shocked to go there. But I guess being there with someone that all the staffs know has its advantages! Better service I bet.

A lunch that we all enjoyed. Both the food and the company.

I had chicken rice. Which was said to be the MOST popular item on the menu. Claim to be sold out before 1pm. I was really amazed by the big portion of serving.


the original table setting


chicken rice set

smooth & tender boiled chicken.



mix stir-fried vege



a BIG bowl of fragance rice



3 unselfish serving of sauces

I knew my mum will be jealous of my chicken rice. And I'm right. =) The serving of chicken was really HUGE! Can hardly finish it. But too wasted not to. Cant finish the rice. By the time I actually finish the chicken and as much rice as I can, others had already finished their main course and enjoying their coffee. -_-!! Goodness. It took me that long to finish everything! I LOVE the stir-fried vege. Heavenly. If only I can cook like this. And imagine, they have to cook hundreds of shares together, and the standard is like this! Its really love the price. S$7.90. Reaonable I should say, with the serving I got, the wonderful experience to my taste buds & not to forget, its Sentosa Golf Club. =D

Austin had Fairways Burger.


more towards Japanese style than Western.

He claim that the presentation of the whole thing is BAD! Goodness.



Pretty small portion for a guy. lolz.

I was really happy with my chicken rice. Though they are having some viet special that last only five days. lolz.

On the way back saw something very cute...



two cute & round fish

Work wasnt good today. *sighz*

But all was good when meeting up with dar dar.. *smile*

Went to MS's Azabu Sabo for dinner. It provide a similar concept to the other one I always go to in MS. But of a bit higher price and more of set meals. Price not much of a diff. And considering the portion and taste you are getting. Very worth it. At last I got to try it. And its with dar. =)



smaller green tea cups than MOF.. i still prefer MOF's green tea.


DAR'S MASTER PIECE!!!! must put big big coze he very proud of it.


the layout.


Pretty spacious, unlike MOF, but I guess a smaller seating capacity? No idea. We had a 4 seater sofa seat all to ourself. Pretty comfortable. And the details that are being paid to the normal chair. Love it. The whole place is so white, clean and you feel kind of 'isolated'. Comparing to MOF, A.S is much more quieter while MOF is cozy and homey.




The food took awhile to arrive, so we entertained ourself with photo taking. lolz. Dar addicted to taking pics also! lalalalalalala.







As usual. Please do not proceed if you are hungry of seeing this in the middle of the night! Warning specially to Mr Koh Yao Tong. lolz.


japanese hamburger set with salmon rice roll.



a BIG beef pattie, soup, preserved vege, and the rice roll.


dar's spicy beef ramen. which is not spicy at all! sweet even. But the beef is tender, sweet and has the taste of the soup.


MY DINNER!


grilled salmon wrapped by LOTS of rice and a piece of seaweed.


Too much rice, so decided to just take the salmon and seaweed. Ya. I dont usually do that with japanese food, but seriously, there's too much rice for me!

The BEEF!!!





The beef was really juicy. Yummy. Sauce was full with onions bits. It was being served with roasted sweet potato, tomato and some salad. Big serving. I could have gotten full with just having the pattie without any sides. But imagine, the set came with rice, side vege and soup. How full I am!!! And there's also cheese that are MELTED on top of the beef... Heavenly. Had always wanted to try this dish from Japan ever since I saw it in Japan Hour. And finally today I got to try it! I am so happy.



End of the main course with my rice dump in the plate. =X


Our dessert...




Let me explain. Attention to those that love to drink. This is THE dessert for you! Soft serve on a piece of baked mashed sweet potato AND with Rum Wine being poured on top of the soft serve and a large helping of pure rum on the bottom which the potato had absorbed the taste.

Dar love this to bits. He rather drink the rum wine than talk to me! -_-!! Bad dar. Guess he really enjoyed this since he like to drink. =)


Had a long bus journey home... 2 buses to get us to JP! But enjoyed the ride alot. =)



the ah beng side of dar.


we both need to sleep more!


Other matters. (such a working term. lolz.)


my two essential item in the office (beside my soft toy and mini pillow). Our pic, the big head I bought from thailand, and the mega big piglet cup.
