Weekly Update

oops.
it's been a week since the last update.

unlike night shifts, day shifts require more attention n concentration so it's a tad to hard to shift the focus onto blogging..
ya, that's the excuse for this time :P

was at 5th aunt's house in JB on Friday with 7th aunt n NeuNeu.
yea, i've got 7 aunts, 5 auncles (counting the maternal side only, mind u..)
had a little trouble with the directions, but this time it's not my fault!

lunched at Perling.
Char Kway Teow & Prawn Noodles in Soup.
no kidding, bagus!
we'll bring Mommy the next time, if we can set directions straight that is..


last evening, we attended Esther's performance at The Crystal Tabernacle Church in Pasir Panjang.
more like a rehearsal but we attended this session coz we can't make it on the actual performance on X'mas Day.
as usual, the people were nice though it lacked the atmosphere like Charis last year, but i suppose it'd probably be different on the actual day.

oh oh, we had supper at this 99 Restaurant in Kent Ridge (Lorong Sarhad to be exact).
since we already had a filling dinner, we only ordered the much-raved-about Yam Paste while the rest had their meal.
unlike the traditional Yam Paste, made from steamed yam (taro), their version was done with an additional dose of steamed pumpkin.
nonetheless, it was served with gingko nuts just like the original version.
we're going back later to try their dishes.

ooh.. all this talk is making my tummy growl.


X'mas is in 2 days..
no specific plans for the day as NeuNeu n i are both working on the eve PLUS the actual day.
how exciting, huh.

however, we'll be leaving for Perak/Ipoh on the evening of 26th.
we might just drop by KL (.. again), but just for a day before we return to Singapore.

before i go (without knowing when i'll be blogging again..)
here's an advance X'mas Greeting to all of u!

Weekend

was at Kenny's since 1.30pm on Friday but it spanned till 9.30pm!
yet another record time.
poor NeuNeu was there waiting, waiting.. waiting..

finally he sent Mommy home around 7pm n came back to pick me up again.
rushed over to Tampines Mall to meet Bro n Mommy for our movie.
we caught "The Warlords".

it was unanimous.
we thought the plot was pretty awesome.

headed back home for rest.
the next day we were off to JB with Nick/Joyce.


enough talk.
breakfast first then it's time for backup in the farms for the servers..

Straight Times.. The New Style..

yet another record broken
it took 8 hours

..finally..

it's changed from this


to this

A foot from the new year..

the year's quickly drawing to an end.

i realize the trend of diminishing emo entries in my blog of late.
no, not that nothing's bothering me..
i suppose the good stuff just reign over the bad ones whenever i sit down n think quietly.

it's been a trying year.
i can't say i've matured, but one thing's definite...

i've aged.

just when i think i'm finally ready for the year,
it's ending already.
time really waits for no man, does it?

i do miss times of the past.
was just reminiscing with Ping about the times when we hung out daily at favorite spot, doing nothing n nothing at all..


and of all the things, i miss MoMo the most.

she's returning from the States next year.
i miss her so much.. so so much..
i'm real glad u're coming back soon, sweetie :)

Hello everybody!


i'm back.
had a couple of busy, rainy, drowsy days.

visited HomeTeamNS at Bukit Batok on Sunday for a carnival since it was near NeuNeu's house.

had lunch, snacks, plus tried our hands on archery.

'twas FUN!
















on the same day...


after dropping by Sunplaza pass Liz some stuff,


we drove up to Sembawang Park for a short walk before work..








the following day, we caught Golden Compass.
at a special price of $2 each at Suntec City.
it's the 2nd time i'm attending the event by PCG,
i certainly hope they've got more of these goodies lined up.

finally collected his computer from his friend yesterday.
put off the plans for tanning in Sentosa despite wanting to "exhibit" my new bikinis.
herhrr.

guess what?
we had an impromptu BBQ at East Coast instead!
grabbed some foodstuff at Giant before collecting my passport at ICA.
just to make my 70 bucks worthwhile, i shall apply NeuNeu's theory - utilizing it at least 70 times to make each use cost 1 dollar or less.

i've even got the first trip planned.
it'll be to.. JB this Saturday..
what's new?
but well, this time with Nick n girlfriend.
we probably can have early dinner at Taman Sentosa on our way back too!


ooh, looking forward to the hairdressing session this Friday at Kenny's.
should i continue to keep my hair permed or have it rebonded?
any suggestions?

okays, enough talk.
back to work.

Rain, Rain...

started out from office to ICA Building in Lavender after sending his car for servicing at Aljunied.
intended to extend my passport coz it's expiring on 6th Dec , which is like er.. tomorrow, only to find out i have to make a new biometric passport at 70 bucks instead n he had to make a replacement NRIC as well for 100 bucks.
boo.

had a quick brunch at Golden Mile FC before heading back to Aljunied to collect the car.
ps: the Lor-Mee was fantastic!
back at the service centre the in-charge told us we had to wait till 2pm to retrieve the car coz the alignment had to be done elsewhere.
anger.
had to take a cab back home to rest coz it started raining pretty heavily plus all that fatigue accumulated from the night shift really wasn't helping much.


'twas supposed to be a beautiful weather for sleeping in...
BUT
the renovation next door was still going on.
ultimate disgust.

in the end woke up around 3pm, washed up, had early dinner n went to get the car.
transferred from the bus to MRT at Tampines interchange.
alas, it's been some time since we've taken public transport together.

anyways, of late, numerous pairs of my shoes have been falling apart.
i've thrown away 4 pairs of shoes in the past month..

Adidas track shoes
Nike sneakers
Mondo kitten heels
Jellies from Bangkok

so today, we drove out to Queensway to get new sneakers for me.
opted for Nike again. almost bought the transparent pair, which the salesperson recommended, but turned out it didn't fit very well on the sides so i got another design instead.

tried on size 23, but it was still too big so i asked for size 22..
guess what?
the smaller size turned out to be the kids' version so it was cheaper.
for the difference of 1cm, we saved 30 bucks.
pity though coz i love many of the adults designs but they don't come in my size.

anyway to sum it all up, we bought another seven pairs of socks.
yes, SEVEN!!!

now, we're both back at work.
off tomorrow n the plan's to go to JB for food, groceries, manicure/pedicure.
hopefully we can also go to City Plaza after that too.
darn.
D&D's on Friday but i haven't really made up my mind on what to wear.

my PAssion card has been left unused for quite a while now.
i doubt we can take up any courses for the time being too, two more trips (Perak n Taipei) plus his classes start in January again.
anyone keen to take up baking / cooking classes with me?


oh, here's a couple of photos i have a hand from we took at Pavilion in KL (not the old Pavilion in Tampines)

2007.11.30 - 2007.12.03 Kuala Lumpur

back in Singapore around 11pm last night.
after the 4-odd hour drive, we were at NeuNeu's house unloading some of his mom's stuff before heading back to my place.

could've reached earlier if not for the slight congestion due to an accident along the North-South expressway.
didn't looked like there was any fatality though the two vehicles involved were damaged rather badly.

anyway we visited the new mall Pavilion n found it rather unappealing.
it houses the usual stores we have in Singapore apart from Paul Frank, Juicy Couture, JCo Donuts n not forgetting, the relatively larger Forever 21 store..

oh, we also caught "Enchanted" at Pavilion's new GSC cinema with Wynn n Cheng Hoe the night prior to departure.
like what NeuNeu says, it's been ages since we seen anything on the big screens.
it was a good choice, apart from the far-from-reality storyline.
but hey!
everyone could do with a little dreaming once in a while :)


too tired to write too much now..
the darned memory card was formatted n all the pictures are lost as well.. gotta wait for Wynn to send those in her cammie so no pix tentatively.
