=)

I'm happy now.

And I bought a new sling bag - Nike.

Financially comfortable.

Work is good and satisfactory.

Bf had been really sweet and supporting.

Family is good. Less fights now.

Just had a family dinner today.

Thank you for everything.

And dont worry.

I'm yours to keep.
Your friends will just be spare in case you dump me one day.
Haha.

My VIRGIN trip to CLUBBING @ St James Powerhouse!!!



By the time we went in, all the tables are occupied. So we ended up buying a Johnnie Walker Black Label in order to secure one of the four tables that are reserved for Johnnie Walker which is like the official drink for F1.

Pretty much enjoyed myself there. Especially with bf's friends who I got to know better during his birthday bash last week. Had a wonderful time there. =)

Cabbed down to Chinatown for supper at around 3am. Reached home only at 5am. *hehe*

We spent like $40 on cab fare just to get round the places. From JP to Vivo, from Vivo to Chinatown, from Chinatown to my place, from my place to bf house.

Dar.. I enjoyed myself.. Dont worry. =)

Before that was at F1 site and of course, to follow the heat wave on F1, I also took some pictures!







Really had such fun these few days.

Plus the trip to Powerhouse. Wow. Kind of love it. =X But not the drinking part.

Bf friend invited us to Lunar next week. Wondering to go or not. =X

I need more dresses and I'm already eyeing on a Nike bag that I wanna buy. hehe.

And soon, its back to club marc again for shopping spree!!!!

Finally.. Bf's 21st party photos!!! There were tones and tones of them. Special thanks to Nicole who took the role of photographer that day. THANK YOU!!!





It was a happening and memoriable day. BUT, bf was too drunk to remember half of what happened and just so happen, that half that he didnt remember was the MOST happening part! Personally, I did enjoy myself despite the constant need to run to bf and running here and there to ensure I handled as must as possible personnally while the guests can enjoy themselves without worrying about anything. I never though I will actually enjoy my job for the day.
















The cupcakes were nice to look at but not nice to taste. Did feedback to Edith who provided the cupcakes. But apparently, there was another group of people who enjoyed the cupcakes! O well, everyone has a different acceptance level to new stuffs. =) At least they looked tasty on photos!









the recep table




table full of drinks




catering from Home Villa




from Polo Club




self-cooked











The caterer I ordered from - Home Villa - at $10.80 per pax, provided really good food. Really tasty. Even the fried bee hoon was good on its own. Even better with the curry chicken. Honeydew sago was good too! I'm sure I will go back to them if I need catering again. But I was too busy that day to enjoy all the food. *wasted*







creative product from bf's mum




with his parents




alex - pri sch friend, and 2 boonlayians






drinking buddies

after drinking something damn sour... cute expression







i love this pic.. no one would thought he's drunk!!!






cousin







Looked after him the whole night while his 2 friends - Alex and Ah Wong - waited for him to finish before sending me home. Really like to thank them for looking after bf and also sending me home on behalf on bf.
Just a brief entry about his party. Too much stuffs happened to be detailed down. Still cant believe he lost memory of all that he done!!! He even forgotten he apologized for drinking so much! But we all know it is because he didnt eat anything. *sighz*

I'm piss, upset, unhappy, lost, hopeless, dreamless NOW.

Nothing is right.

Nothing is going my way.

And I HATE it.

I super hate when things arent happening as promised.

I super duper hate when promises arent happening and on top of it, things arent happening correctly.

I hate hate hate.

And of all time, it has to be today that I am alone at home.

Being emo I know. I know bf still loves me but still he wasnt around today. Its times like this I feel so lonely. So alone.

I really feel like crying now. As in really cry and take leave for a day and lost myself in the crowd. Then turn up on Saturday like nothing is wrong. Smile the way through. Ensure everything is ok and slip away quietly.

Its frustration. Its helpless-ness.

I know I'm a xin fu person now. I have almost everything a ger can ask for. A family. A doting brother. A loving bf. Colleagues that are like my brothers. Two colleagues which are like blood sisters. Friends around me.

But why do I feel everything in front of me now is BLACK.

It took me ages before colours are brought into my life. See my clothes now. I even have a hot pink top now! How much I had changed. Teddy is the best person to witness it all.

I do not even know where this entry is going to. Been a long long time I wrote such an entry. The last hopeless entry I wrote was like last year. Where I was insecure with bf.

I hate this. I hate myself for feeling like this.
Bf requested for a single standalone entry on the gift from him. And he asked why the picture only appear at the end of my entry!!!! -_-!!

Yes, he bought me a Burberry London on 13th September 2008 at Taka.
It only took me less than 10 minutes to decide on which one to get,
1 second to fall in love with it
And less than 1 second for bf to decide paying full for the bag.


He is proud that he bought me Burberry for my 21st. And I am proud too, though guilty at the same time. But this is one arugement I cannot win. He set his mind to do so.

And I'm so addicted to Burberry! Maybe I should pop by the Burberry outlet @ T3 tomorrow and see whether I can find any classic ones. Taka's outlet no longer sell their classics.

THANK YOU BF!!!!

p.s. looking for alternative now say the chalet is not available... any idea?

*off to site*

Got a meaningful email from a friend today....

Why a wedding ring should be put on the fourth finger?

Pls follow the below step, really god made this miracle( this is from a Chinese excerpt) Firstly, show your palm, centre finger bend and put together back to back Secondly, the rest 4 fingers tips to tips Games begin, follow the below arrangement, 5 fingers but only 1 pair can't split


Try to open your thumb, the thumbs represent parents, it can be open cause all humans do go thru sickness and die. Which is why our parents will leave us one day Pls close up your thumb, then open your second finger, the fingers represent brothers and sisters, they do have their own families which is why they will leave us too Now close up your second finger, open up your little fingers, this represents your children. Sooner or later they too will leave us for they have their own living to live Nevertheless, close up your little finer, try to open your fourth finger which we put our wedding rings on, you will be surprised to find that it cannot be open at all. Because it represent husband and wife, this whole life you will be attached to each other!!!!!

Real love will stick together forever and ever

Thumb represent parents
Second finger represents brothers & sisters
Centre finger represents own self
Fourth finger represents your partner
Last finger represents your children

This was the same theory my korea tour guide told me when I went there two years ago.

Anyway... Monday blues. Plus it was raining cats and dogs this morning! Almost took leave. But did went to work and managed to keep myself busy for the whole day. Going down to T3 on Thursday. Wish me luck.

Counting down to bf's birthday bash this Saturday. And two months later will be MINE!!!! Cant wait. Hopefully able to get a chalet. Otherwise... I will be real sad.

And I miss bf. Decided to be a good daughter and went home for dinner. Mum was nice and waited for me to have dinner too. Normally I dislike coming home for dinner coze everyone would have finished dinner. *loves*

chinling.. if you are seeing this.. JIA YOU!!!!!! sorry for not being physically around. if working gets tiring, its time to take a break and allow yourself to breath in order to continue walking this road. dont forget that we are always here for you though we are each busy with our own things now. hao ma? *hugs* cupid will send you someone when you least expect it to. =)

Yesterday - 13 Sept 08 - is a very eventful day for me. One of my happiest and most enjoyable day. One that I seriously didnt want the day to end. One that I wish to remember forever. Actually wanted to blog yesterday night, but it was already 1am when I finished loading the photos to blogger. Hence the entry today..

Firstly, we got chosen for the Food Trail organized by Lian He Zao Bao and mum, aunt, bro and me went. Each pax cost $58 and we are treated to a feast a three different hotels.

Bro drove us there since there will be complimentary parking coupon given by the hotel (meritus mandarin hotel - our 1st stop).


in the car..

First stop - Meritus Mandarin Hotel



menu - starters, chicken rice, coconut ice cream, lime juice



complimentary chicky soft toy and this chicky has some eye problem


45 pax



forced him to smile


sparkling red wine was served to go with the grilled seafood starters


I had a small glass of red wine just for the taste of it. I knew bf would love this! Must be some really good wine since it doesnt has much dryness to it.


the head chef with the organizer


starters

Sliced prawn & scallop with black fugus tossed with Japanese rice vinegar on a nice base of sliced cucumber and tomato, topped off with a very thin slice of garlic bread.

I love the black fugus with Japanese rice vinegar. The level of sourness is just right for everyone, even those who dislike sour. And going with the sweetness of the seafood is really paradise for your taste bud! Yummy. And the scallop is really soft and sweet. Prawn is tender too! What you can expect from a hotel. Thumbs up!


left over by bro..


main course - the famous Chicken Rice


chicken meat

Was kind of disappointed by this main course. As you guys know, the meritus chicken rice is a very famous and well-known. Though you might had taste you it before, once you mention meritus chicken rice @ chatterbox, everyone will know. But after tasting it, give me Jurong East hawker chicken rice anyday! The chicken was tough, not tender. Kind of tasteless even. Rice didnt carry any fragance with it too. Though I bet they used really good rice to cook it. I like the soup though - herbal chicken rice soup. Overall a pretty disappointing experience.


my leftover..


coconu ice cream

This is NICE!!!!!!! The first mouthful of ice cream will make you go 'wow' because of the texture. They added shredded coconut meat to the ice cream hence giving it dimension. But its very fattening! Its worth the experience.

Second stop - Park Royal Hotel


china chef...


8-treasure tea



They had a number of patterns to pour the hot water using the special teapot with a long thin mouth..


clear soup with chicken-liked tofu

First dish served there is a clear soup made from chicken bone, pork bone and etc etc. That white 'thing' there is actually minced chicken meat! Imagine how tiny they minced that chicken to make it look and taste like tofu! Skill indeed.



This was so-so...



china-style dumpling

This is good! Cooked in soup rather than pan-fried like those we normally have. Though the skin is of certain thickness, you dont really get sick of it. Prefer it with lots of vinegar. Thats who I love my dumpling.


Green bean porridge with 3 sides


It tasted just like porridge cook in green bean soup! I very much like my green bean soup and porridge separated. Thank you very much! But a pretty ok combination. Tasted funny but its not that its not nice. Just weird. The 3 sides give the porridge more taste and also some bites.

On our way to the last stop.. Sheraton Hotel off Newton.



Third stop - Italian dessert @ Sheraton Hotel





Italian chef




3 style dessert


creeps with homemade vanilla ice cream
I tell you, the ice cream is something worth for you to spend your money on!!!!!! It tastes so different from outside! This is then what I call vanilla ice cream!!!!!!!!! No other ice cream can fight with this.




Hungry? lolz. The desserts is really heavenly and the standard of hotel.. Unlike that chicken rice. *sighz* I had a wonderful time tasting all the dessert slowly. Letting each one melt in my mouth and fill my taste bud with the taste of it. Love it.. Its worth going there for high-tea or just to chill out when you feel like you have spare money to spend. lolz.





voting for our favourite place and dish
After the whole event of food trail, met up with bf at Taka to Art Friends in order to find scrap book material etc etc. He settled on one black scrapbook and some metallic markers. Wonderful! Finally settled. On my heels for one whole hour before he turned up.
Light dinner at Cathay Cine - Chicago Steakhouse. All because I wanna get my taste buds on their soup in bread bowl. One item that I had always wanted to eat since I went there with lene ages ago. But always not available whenever I went with bf. Since I didnt feel like eating much, this is just nice for my dinner.



$8.90


Went Shin Bar with bf thereafter to meet Ah boon, and another friend. Bf sis also working there. Was a romantic walk from Raffles Station to Shin Bar since we took the river side route. =X Was enjoying the walk with bf while enjoying the night life in Singapore.
Played dia dee with them till bro came to pick me up at 10plus pm. It was one of the rare times I tag along with bf to go to meet his friends. Though been one year, but we hardly meet each other friends. Personal space. =)
Lastly...
