Hang Zhou

made a trip down to Hang Zhou and i didnt really enjoy it that much.
1st, the company is totally off.
its all the AH TIONGS and i totally cannot stand it when they just try to clear their bloody throat and sneeze without even covering their mouth.
what's worse, after digging their nose, they practically clean it on any surface other then theirs.
totally GROSS!!

2nd, its too rush and we didnt get to capture enough scenery.
i quite like the temple thou.

lastly, i think its nice to have someone i know through out the whole trip, but it sucks if that person is always there 24/7.
yes, i meant him!!

i'm coming back real soon and moving to a new set of work.
hoping that i will be really great with my new chapter in life as this work is already a chore to me that i no longer find joy.
thou i must say that i am going to miss the weather and the online shopping here, but i am sure that i will enjoy myself even better in my ever warm and sunny SINGAPORE.

Back!

i'm back!!
this time, only for a month and i will gotta return on the 21 feb.
sigh..
my days here are counted
i have to spend my days wisely.

it feels really great to be back.
i love the weather here and really appreciate the heat.
to loads of people out there, they would love to see snow and not experience the heat here.

the food here is also awesome.
i got to eat Sting Ray, Curry Fish Head and yada yada.
slurps..
will have to eat all the delicacies before i leave for SH till i dunno when..
serve me with local food please!!! LOl

Shanghai II

i'm getting used to the life here.
eating out or ordering delivery daily.
this sucks.
i'm thinking of preparing food on my own because the people here pack their own lunch.
i will have to do grocery shopping at the market or supermarket.
next, up on mind, where the hell is the market?
would i see jumping chicken slaughtered on the point?
would i see the fish out of gasping for air once out of the water?
all these are really scary.
but i will still have to get ingredients to cook.
will source for alternatives then.

i still sleep with my lights on.
super scary when i'm all alone in the big apartment.
anyway, the only thing i look forward to is SHOPPING.
hahha..
be it grocery or window. =D

Renewed Me

i realised that i have got you out of my life.
i have learnt to be really on my own that i no longer need you in my life.
i am able to live as well.
i have grown to be really sick and tired of what we used to go through.
i am a new me now!

Langkawi

me is back from the island of sun, sand and sea!!
though it is only a very very short trip out, i totally enjoyed myself. =)
cant really remember what we actually did there but it was really fun!!
First highlight of the trip is me being able to jet ski!!
I was a totally reckless driver and it feels great skiing around in the open sea.
Next was the Snake Sanctuary.
Had fun touching the snakes!
They are not slimy at all.
Lastly, was fined by the traffic police because I didnt fasten my seat belt..
and we actually managed to bribe the police officer instead..
this is how dark m'sia can be.

Ody WON!!

I'm so happy with Ody's performance today!! =D
I wasn't expecting anything from him today judging from all the hiccups he used to give me on very important days.
Nevertheless, I didn't give up on him and continued training even till the very last minute.

1st, he refused to calm himself down before entering the ring.
2nd, he forgotten his auto-sit at the start of the trial.
3rd, he didn't do his recall perfectly.

I do have my mistakes too. =p
Me, being in the ring for the 1st time, was too nervous when he made mistakes.
I totally lost my mind when there was faults. sigh.
Will work harder on that.. =)

Photos and videos are up in my fb..

Back

I'm back from my getaway trip, Taiwan!! =)
I'm so exhausted from the trip. Had been moving around in the tour bus from point to point and waking up at 5ish throughout the whole trip is horrendous. Nevertheless, I've enjoyed myself. Will skip the day to day itinerary.

As usual, after checking into the hotel in the night, B and I went out for supper though we were both so so bloody filled up. We sat at this dessert stall eating our dessert and some roadside stall food, and this medium-sized stray came out from nowhere came to our table and started staring at B with his very very big and watery eyes, begging for food.. Initially, both of us kinda ignored it but it just kept staring at B and its persistence really paid off.

The later few days were really cold!! Temperature dropped from 20 odd to 10 odd and the wind was blowing 'non-stop'. Walking out on the streets in the evening can kill cos we didn't expect the drastic change in temperature. Despite us freezing, we refuse to buy a thicker coat at the night market. Yes, we both are just too stubborn. Worst of all, we challenged each other to eat ice-cream in such condition. LOl..

Hot spring was great minus the CHEENAS that were really really a turn off. The smell of sulphur from the hot spring is still manageable and i took a dip in the pool where the temperature was 42 degrees celsius.. It feels totally awesome after soaking myself in the water..

Shopping was fun!! Though I didnt really buy much back due to them selling mostly winter apparels, being able to eat and shop at the same time is really really great! Why cant spore just be like them?

I'm really hungry NOW!! Thinking of the chicken cutlet!! slurps...

Bokeh

I'm am so in love with BOKEH ever since I saw Dave took the X.X photo for Adil when we were out for some photography sometime during xmas09. Have been trying it out with my own little camera and I've been really hooked on it. Though I have yet take a really nice one, I will try it out over and over again till i get it!! Persistence is needed in photography!! And I really need to rush up on my lousy skills too! ):

Here are 2 nice shots that I hearts...

Breathing Exercise

Met a really interesting guy on the bus today.
He's an indian, tall and middle aged.
First, he took his counter out and started clicking it. I presume that he is chanting some chant in his heart.
Next, he started doing some breathing exercise which i learnt from taking up yoga. LOL.. At that point of time, I had the urge to do it together with him. But, after much thoughts, I think it will be really funny so I didn't and I wasn't feeling that good too.

Went kayaking on Sunday. It was really tiring! It has been ages since I last did that and I totally enjoyed myself. Whee! I'm so looking forward to more outdoor activities.. La, Pris, Gladys and YY, when are we going for ours??

Jog to Labrador Park

I started jogging with my colleagues after work. I enjoyed it a lot though the jog was to be own time own target and the SUPER STEEP SLOPE to the park is a KILLER!!
Nevertheless, after all these hardwork, I was able to catch a glimpse of sunset and was thrilled by that sight. =)

Reindeer

Went to town for a short walk and we ended up shooting all the reindeers that we saw along orchard road. it was fun, fun and FUN!! =D

Gloomy Weekend

It's Tuesday and I'm thinking back on what happened over the weekends.
The only word I can use was HORRENDOUS!!

First, Zeng Yuan organised KTV and didn't turn up leaving me and Yong Jie thinking that he'll be reaching hour after hour. The worst part was that when we ended everything, he didnt want to pick up our call!! Totally pissed, didnt wanna talk to him at all thou he asked for another KTV session. My point was that he should learn from it as we made time for him and he did this to us. Not going to delicate time just because he wants it that way. LOl. Yes.. I may be petty but he ought to learn that not everyone is so free for him to be played out.

Next, Lala didnt something really wrong and instead of feeling sorry for her actions, she got really defensive. sigh. My this sista really have a mind of her own and can be really stubborn at times. I am just hoping that time will make her more mature as it ticks slowly.

Lastly, the top level manager passed away all of a sudden. Nothing much to comment. =( Sent him off on Monday.

The only happy thing was that I so enjoyed seeing children so facinated with bubbles. They were running towards the guy who was creating the bubbles, jumping up and down trying to catch the bubbles. Its just so nice being a kid, having such fun. I kinda miss my childhood days. Please bring me back to my childhood days...

Broadway Beng

Watched Broadway Beng at the Esplanade.
I have to declare that I finally got to watch this musical with my friends.
Always wanted to watch it with Shaun but the day never come.
I totally enjoyed the musical and the proposal was really something so fairytale, so sweet that every girl will say yes to it.

Not sure why these days I'm feeling odd.
Like the fireworks at Vivo, it just feels so whimsical.
It might be due to the ignorance of the fireworks display on that day.
In the past, I used to watch fireworks display knowing the details and have never really appreciated the effort of getting myself there with someone that I loved.
Was standing really close to the firing platform and the feeling was completely different.
I teared while watching it, thinking of the past. =(

Sad memories are the worst things in my life but I just can't seem to get rid of it.
Worst of all, sad memories are the ones that hit most and happy ones are always forgotten very quickly.
Will just have to load myself with loads of happy memories that I can keep and remember forever.

My New Toy!

Finally bought myself a camera.
This time, I will try not to lose my camera again.
Went to Sitex to try out the Canon G11 but decided on Panasonic Lumix LX3. =P
Comparing the lens, size and weight, LX is on the upper hand.
One thing that I like about G11 is the extended screen.

Brought Ody to AMK Hub after his training for my camera. =)
He was totally a chick magnet.
The showgirls were so amazed by his good behaviour when I put him on the chair, he did not jump off the chair but sat there patiently waiting for me.
Those girls do not know that Ody is undergoing a series of tough training to attain such 'good' behaviour.
Now, I gotta work on Zaedy!
He's totally hopeless!! =X

Was so excited that I dig Prissy and YY up from bed after the batteries are fully charged.
We walked the dogs to Yishun Park instead of the intended, Bottle Tree Park, due to the rain.
Enjoyed ourselves very much! :)
Prissy and YY played like they were still a lil kid.. haha.
Photos posted on FB

Here are some pictures that I took when I was out with Mummy and Lala. =D

Yumss...

Me can make nice Tiramisu!!
Tried making some with the instant mix that I bought from Muji.
How wrong can you go about with instant mix?
So after watching the Chl 8 show which I so happened was watching, I realised that it is just so easy to make them.
Did some further research online and found this really good video..
With the help of the cake mixer that my lovely colleagues bought me as a birthday gift, I used it to whip the cream and it turn out LOVELY!! (no need to manually whip for ages just to get it fluffy)
Did all that I need to and tada, a nice and delicious Tiramisu (with no alcohol thou)..
Will be serving them to my pals when they come over for steamboat on Saturday!
I'm so proud of myself!! =)

Stronger

I used to be crying a lot day and night.
I thought of ending my life.
I stopped eating.
I just can't sleep.
Now, I am willing to let my blog readers know how weak a person I am.
I used to put a very strong front and not let others know the soft and weak side of me.
But now, I think there is no point hiding everything, keeping all my feelings to myself which in turn makes me even weaker.
Thanks Gabs for the wake up call!!
Without that, I think I will still be the miserable one. =)

I realised that I even seek solace from God.
I mean when you are really so down and need someone to provide guidance, He is the one who will stand by you without fail.
He will forgive you for all your wrongs and embrace you with all He can.
I know this sound really funny coming from me but it is really true.
By the way, I am not a Christian as many of my friends mistaken me for one.
In General, all religions teach you to be good!

Signed up for the 16km Mizuno run and I managed to complete it.
Mum was really proud of me too. :)
The hardest part of the run is the never ending slopes!
Anyway, will have to keep up with this and prepare for more runs in future. =)
People who are reading this, if you want to have a really slow jogger please ask me out for jogs.. =)

Impromtu meetup

Was out with the SGNorth peeps for dinner last evening.
Didnt eat much due to loss of appetite. Think I'm going into some eating disorder soon.
Had a great time with them.
This time not talking about dogs but serial killings and some crime psychology.

Saw Qianni at NorthPoint.
Happily married and just gotta know that she's staying in Yishun.
Wonder if she's pregnant.
The dress that she's in kinda make me think that way. hmm...
Anyway, I'm happy for her. :)
Still as pretty as ever, the ger that has flawless complexion without makeup.

Paranoma 2009

Met up with my ah neh sista and Gladys for Paranoma at Esplanade. :) As usual, we gossiped a little about the people around and had dinner at Thai Express thereafter. The concert was not really splendid but thinking that it is performed by JC students, they did really a great job. I totally enjoyed myself.

Calories Watch

Calories - Bah Kut Teh, Buffet @ Inter-Continental, Astons, Crabs.
This is a hell load of calories for 4 evenings straight in a row.
Gotta think of how to lose them. (it's going to be exercise and more exercise)

Had a mini birthday celebration for Angela

Went to a park to get some photo shoots with Ade and Vic and of course the dogs. :)
Just can't wait to see the photos.

Us at the park with the guys as photographer

Bear, Vic and I are going on a trip to Mt Ophir this weekend.
The thought of walking up to the summit to catch the sunrise is making me so enthusiastic.
I can't wait for weekend to come!!!

Worn Out

This weekend was terrible.
Feeling so lethargic forever but just can't get enough sleep.
Went mosquito feeding at Sungei Buloh Nature Reserve but managed to catch a glimpse of the setting sun. :)
Next, was at SKC for a short while and had to leave due to work. darn
When I got home, issue was resolved. FUCK!!
Ended up at USDB buying a mini cake for Ody to celebrate his barkday!
Mahjong till late and I'm like a walking zombie now~
I'M SERIOUSLY IN NEED OF SLEEP!!
