i taut i saw a pussycat

2009-06-04T15:22:00.002+08:00

We’re gonna watched the Pussycats Dolls tonight! It’s 3pm and I’m getting really excited about it!! When I first heard about the PCD, the first impression was like;

damn, another sleazy cabaret girls sexy dancegroup…

But I watched a couple of their live performance and everything changed. I thought the girls were really professionals, I see the effort put in for an absolutely great dance act. Not very easy I much say! Checked out that abs they have and you know that they are pretty good at it. I was captivated by their dance performance, sexy but not sleazy costumes. A lot of boob/booty actions going on, but you know what they say….

If you have it, flaunt it with confidence baby!

I hope they rock the Indoor Stadium tonight. Either way, I’m so looking forward for a great night… Thanks b!

SUN-DAY

2009-06-01T15:18:00.004+08:00

Spend a wonderful Sunday! Hanging around by the pool...

swim...

(actually it was more of floating around which was so much more fun instead)

I think it’s the perfect way to get a nice brown tan while escaping from this insane heat and humidity. Just jump into the pool! Finally met up with Des and Cat at the tanglin tree; we waited for 2 weeks to meet Des because he just got back from Washington DC (*cough* swine flu!) But it was really great to be able to catch up again! Will have to gather all partners in crime and meet up again soon. =)

I bought a black dress from Daniel Yam for Lynette’s wedding! And I’m going to be the English Emcee for that night…. I’ve never done it before, so hopefully it turns out well! Thanks for offering to accompany me to shop for my dress. I didn’t except to get one yesterday but I guess it was a perfect dress. What Luck! I dont think i ever had such good luck shopping alone… I’ll show you guys the dress soon. Thanks love!

Now, I’m gonna have to lose some weight to fit nicely into that dress!!!!

Lunch

2009-05-25T13:38:00.001+08:00

It’s lunchtime. I have my Subway right infront of me but with no appetite. Waited in the long queue for freaking 15mins, got my subs, walked all the way under the insanely scorching hot sun and back at my desk with totally no appetite… So my lunch is just sitting there right now while I struggle to stuff it down my throat.

I used to love lunchtime. But I seriously dread it so much right now… I rather take a cab back home, sit in my room, have instant noodles and then get a cab back to office during lunchtime. I figure it’s not too much about lunching alone; it’s about who I’m lunch with and where I’m lunching at.

So right now… I really just want to lunch alone at anywhere but here.

Don’t you just love Mondays.

Kate Spade

2009-05-21T14:29:00.007+08:00

When you're walking down the street, take a look around and count the number of ladies carrying a branded bag (be it real or fake). I've never owe a branded bag. Even though i own countless of bags (ask my dad, he'll tell you ALL about it), it was all bags that cost less than $50...

It's true! I never buy bags that's more that $50 because i think it's just too expensive if the price tag of the bag was $89.90 or $159.90. So in conclusion, i never owe a branded bag...

Seriously, I cannot imagine how someone can spend $1k on a Gucci bag or...

a whopping $3k on a Chanel 2.55!

Then again, looking at the classic chain handles, trademark Chanel logo lock, patent calfskin leather... It's like i've been lusting for the Chanel 2.55 FOREVER.

Ever wonder why 2.55? It was first designed by Coco Chanel in February 1955 (hence the name) because she wanted to free her hands from bag-carrying when. Very wise indeed! Chanel will always be my dream and i'm gonna get it one of these days (probably another 100 years from now...)

So coming back to something more realistic, i was looking at a Kate Spade instead. Not like the usual Gucci, LV that the wholewideworld is carrying... I kinda like KS.

How's that for work and play? I like it... I really wanna get a good bag, cos i'm bag obsessed and i deserved it!! So i'm looking around for options. Let me know if you have any good recommendations. Meantime, KS is first on my list till i find something else.

Have a good night world.

I know you hate your job.

2009-05-15T08:48:00.004+08:00

Sometimes you wonder if yoga is gonna work when you indulge in Famous Amos Chocolate Chip Cookies and Ben& Jerry Strawberry Cheesecake Ice Cream after yoga class….

So I cut/colour/highlight my hair! I like the colour but I’m not too sure about the cut lah… I’m still trying to figure out how it works; so at this point of time, I hate it.

THERE YOU GO!

Totally lost my edginess and attitude loh. And I think my face looks fatter… Have I told you I put on weight? I’m wearing size M now! No longer waistline 34, it’s now 36! Geez… My tummy is so out of line that I can’t even see my toes when I look down. It’s terrible.

I feel like having a good feast today. =)

Yogi and a Dedication

2009-05-09T22:43:00.003+08:00

You know all the bullshite about how going for yoga relaxes the mind, body and soul?

Well, it's true...

I'm telling you! IT IS! Dammit, cant believe i got converted so quickly. But seriously, yoga classes have been great. I'm probably the biggest noob in class, but i'm sure i'll get there. So CHEER me on! =)

Before i go, just wanna do a shout-out dedication:

It's been the best time of my life. No one has ever made me feel this way and i truly count my blessings everyday, having to know that you'll be there for me no matter what. I think i'm the luckiest girl on earth! Thanks for everything you've done and i look forward to more lettues wraps with beef fillings, the white watch, dark magnum bars, Kit Kat DARK, apple juice, lasagne, sunsets, botanical garden, dogs and CATS, bags and shoes, missing SMSes, love and luck, muddy murhpys, bridge walk, the white dress from the window, and the list goes on....

Last but not least, I look forward to more postcards.

With all my love and more,

Your Muse.

2009-05-06T17:23:00.001+08:00

I’m really bummed out today...

I’ll rant and grumble a whole lot, throw random tantrums at him, whine over the most insignificant and minor things in life…

Now that I have more time for myself, I take a step back and look at the world around me…

I wonder where I am.

It’s about time…

Last Paper - Reflections

2009-05-04T10:59:00.002+08:00

Last Saturday, I finished my last paper at school...

After 18 months of late night lecture class, spending both weekends in class, I’ve learnt so much through these interesting/boring lectures. Not forgetting my wonderful classmates who were just simply kick-ass awesome. Walking out that examination hall for the last time, I can’t believe I’m actually done with school and made it out alive! It’s been a tough journey, doing a Part-Time Degree and I’m proud to say that I’ve done it well. School/work days have been a daze, not exactly the best days I’ve had, but definitely a very enriching experience.

Now that I’m officially done with school, seems like I’ve so much free time at hand! I signed up for yoga class to get some exercise in, physically and spiritually. (constantly reminding myself to attend class religiously or it will be an absolute waste of money!) I was sitting at home on Sunday night not knowing what to do, seriously… I read books, played games, catch up with friends on my long time missing status and then spent the rest of my time staring at the blank ceiling… Someone do something!!

I guess first off, I’m gonna start randomly dating people out, so watch out you guys…

I’m back.

Paper Planes

2009-03-26T17:19:00.002+08:00

Attending Bro’s Commissioning Ball tonight at Ritz Carlton…

Flying tomorrow morning to Sydney! Be back 11th April.

Keep that tagboard alive yea. I’ll be checking 'em...

Will try to blog as long as I’m able to get frigglin internet access in Sydney.

Miss you all, xoxo.

the last lecture

2009-03-20T16:45:00.002+08:00

Tonight marks the last 4 hours of class of my Degree course, my last lecture.

I can’t believe 18months past just like that. I’m over and done with school.

All the night classes, weekend project meetings, (not forgetting the almost dead social life) cups of coffee, burning of midnight oil for exams…

It’s been a long long tiring journey, but a very fruitful one.

I made great friends, wonderful learning experience…

As much as I hate saying this…

but I’m starting to miss school now!

2009-03-19T11:07:00.000+08:00

Gravity can't forget to pull me back to the ground again.

2009-03-19T01:15:00.000+08:00

On second thoughts, I might as well start writing again… so people, wherever you are - stay with me.

Been a rough week; School been pretty interesting so far. Work… let’s not start.

And it’s been a thousand years since I last catch up with good old friends, it’s pathetic.

Bro is gonna have his commissioning parade this Sat, time flies.

Randomly;

It’s not for girls?? Sexist isn’t it!! Such a controversy choc bar. (It’s for real)

Yours sincerely, aka the Sister, is going to attend Bro’s commissioning ball next Sat at Ritz Carlton. Bought this dress for the event. (Just say it’s nice.)

Goodnight world.

2009-03-18T09:21:00.000+08:00

Sometimes, I don’t really feel like writing/blogging anymore…

It’s either my social life is so dead that there’s pretty much nothing to write about.

(sch -> work -> home; REPEAT)

Or my life is full of deep dark secrets like skeletons in the closet that I don’t wanna talk about

Or I just don’t know where to start, I’m lost…

Slumdog Millionaire

2009-02-16T13:45:00.003+08:00

… And so I’m back.

Slumdog Millionaire was awesome.

I strongly recommend you guys to watch it! It’s a beautiful film, great storyline.

It’s genius!

Who in the blue world will think about telling this life story through a game show

“Who wants to be a Millionaire?!”

Everything was really well thought of. Even the differences in culture when watching this show was amazing.

And the most kick ass part of the soundtrack…

(playing in background)

Awesome-ness!

Be sure to catch it.

It's getting shorter.

2009-02-04T14:36:00.002+08:00

Single Ladies, Put a RING on it!

SOOO what have i done?

*****

***

I bought myself a Trilogy Ring!!

As a reward to myself for the achievement so far, I decided to get myself a ring to remember about. So 30 years down the road, when I look at this ring; I’ll remember this very moment when I was 22 years old. Sort of like a sentimental object i wanna keep in my lifetime....

Not a very big diamond though, start small!!

I finally got the ring and i really really liked it...

What a great way to end off the year with.

Happy New Year Everyone!

i finally done it

2008-12-22T22:51:00.002+08:00

omgawd i cant believe this, but i've finally done IT!!

It's a pretty huge deal for me,

so i'm really really glad i've done IT...

=))

2008-12-08T11:33:00.002+08:00

Happy 22nd.

One year old, one year wiser... (hopefully!)

No celebration on my birthday this year, just chilling out at home with the cold weather. I even delcared a Public Holiday this year on my birthday. Have a good one y'all.

Happy Holiday and Happy Birthday.

RIP

2008-12-04T15:30:00.002+08:00

In a twist of fate, everything changed… forever.

I’ve been following the news of the terrorists attack in Mumbai for the past few days.

I read about today’s article and got all teary-eyed...

The love story of Lo Hwei Yen and Michael Puhaindran didn’t last happily ever after. Puhaindran proposed to Lo in the Maldives within eight months of meeting her and held a beautiful Bali wedding. Everything in life was perfect until she was being held hostage by gunmen and died in the hands of these senseless terrorists.

Her last final email was sent to her best friends, ending off by saying...

“if I don't make it out of here I love you all…”

Her last words to her husband were...

“I love you very much…”

After that phone call was a few agonizing silent hours of waiting… a call in the early hours of the morning confirmed Puhaindran's fears.

Reading the all the articles and watching Puhaindran giving his speech at the press conference was truly a heartbreaking one. He said:

"Everything I did, I did for her. My whole life revolved around her and she truly was the meaning of my life."

I try putting myself in his shoes and I just can’t do it... It’s going to be very hard to pick up all these pieces and live on with life. I’m so glad V is not flying to New Delhi this week. Thank God the meeting got cancel.

My deepest condolences to all her friends and families…. RIP.

Weird Couples!

2008-12-02T21:00:00.006+08:00

I was so busy at work this morning I didn't even have time to visit theloo. Hurried into the toilet and there were 2 person staring at me as I enter the cubicle... Lo and behold!

These love couples were sitting on top of the dispenser!! WTFISH!

Sex God??!

Lover Boy??!

Talking about World Aids Day... It's gotta be some marketing gimmicks, geez! Who so free got nothing to do, put this in our toilet? Damn tacky loh...

What the hell was THAT about??

Folks are away for a trip in Vietnam this week. So the house is mineeeeee.

The boys came over for steamboat on Monday. We dropped by the supermarket and grabbed all the food, a bottle of champagne. Went back to my place, prepare the food, steamboat-ed and popped the bubbly. I didnt know how to cook rice, WL did it. LOLS. But i did all the washing okay!! Slacked around and watch dvds. Unknowingly, day passes quickly...

I'm seeing dust and cobwebs collecting in this blog...

Just in time for Halloween this Friday.

Sorry y'all. Have been busy with exams and work. Besides there's nothing happening to blog about. It's just the same old mundane stuff which i'm sure you guys dont wanna hear me rant about.

A paper on Saturday totally killed me and i have another paper next Saturday. I'll be free-er by then, date me.

Halloween Party in Office on Friday. They say i AM already in my Halloween costumes everyday - Skeleton. D'OH! Seriously, i think everyone is just plain jealous that i'm eating so much but not gaining much obvious weight.

Any brilliant ideas on what to dress up as?

Sunday Night

2008-10-19T20:00:00.002+08:00

Lonely and quiet Sunday night set me thinking about lots of things that have been happening lately... I'm having my doubts if things are going to work out. I realised i am always the one waiting for god knows what. It's like history repeating itself again.

Waiting waiting...

for the world to change.

(which is never gonna happen!)

Vote? Dont Vote?

A whole strings of celebs have come together to appear in a Public Service Announcements produced by Leonardo DiCaprio, will.i.am, Tobey Maguire and Forest Whitaker in an effort to encourage the American youth to register to vote by telling them not to vote. In time for this upcoming elections, this video was created to engage and inspire young people to register, vote and participate in this really important event and marked the history and future of America.

I hope it works. Reverse Psychological...

F1 Grand Prix - Ferrari Disaster

2008-09-29T17:10:00.009+08:00

It was a great F1 night. Indeed an historical moment for Singapore and I’m so proud to be part of this remarkable event!!

I arrived at 5pm & the crowd was slowly pouring in.

Had a couple of beers and bumped into old friends!

The race starts off with all the drivers doing a parade in vintage cars, waving to the crowd. We got to our seats at the Padang grandstand, standby with our ear plugs and waited. It was packed with fans and supporters from all over the world, with their countries’ flag flying high. Click to watch the video of the 1st lap of the F1 race! It is insanely loud!! And fast!!

Can you imagine how hard it was to get a picture of these mean machines speeding at 285km/hr? This was the best I captured!! Digital Cameras are ridiculous!

There were a couple of dramas and crashes in the course of the laps. The major Ferrari Disaster is the most talked about one… I have captured video footage of the disaster for Ferrari, via the big screen display infront of us. In case you missed the drama last night, watch this!!

Massa was in the pitstop. Given the green light, he drove off with the fuel hose still attached to his car.

Massa stopped and waited for assistance. His crew ran after him and struggled to remove the hose. Massa ended up sitting in his Ferrari and rejoined the race at the back of the field.

Replay of Ferrari drama. Watch out at 00:12 sec of the video when Massa was given the Green Light to GO. Watch the fuel hose get ripped out, with fuel spilling all over and the poor crew who almost got ramped over! Raikkonen was right behind Massa, waiting in the pitstop.

Kimi Raikkonen ramming his car into the barriers with just four laps to go till the end of this race. I was devastated!!

These pictures are not enough to justify how exciting the race was. Enjoy the videos if you missed the race last night. Watch it again, because this F1 Grand Prix 1st Night Race EVER in Singapore is gonna go down in history! (or rather the Ferrari Disaster...)

Formula 1, Singapore Grand Prix

2008-09-26T15:49:00.004+08:00

ZOMG! I'M GOING TO SINGAPORE 1ST EVER NIGHT RACE FOR THE GRAND PRIX!!

Been really really excited about the F1, reading up on all the drivers' info and cars' fact-file. So i'm ready for this race!! I'll snap as much pics/videos as possible and post 'em here. My seat is at the Padang Grandstand, it's a straight road where the cars speed at up too 300km/hr. I'm really really looking forward to the race tmr!!

Deffo got my money on Team Ferrari - Kimi Raikkonen!

Btw, i bought a new phone too... Sweee right. I like~ Turns out YT got the same phone too. Great friends think alike!!

I'm gonna go get all excited about tmr's race now. Vrrroooooom!!

Justin

2008-09-16T21:42:00.005+08:00

Finding it so hard to live without my camera!! Justin was in town for the whole week and i was the tour guide. When i was down in Sydney, he drove me around too. Likewise when he's in town, i brought him to Clarke Quay for dinner and drinks after work during the weekday and we decided to further explore Singapore on Saturday. (Thank god Justin brought his camera...)

We tried out the Singapore Flyer. Nothing impressive seriously...

But it was great company!

Checked out Fullerton, Esplanade, Merlion... All the tourist attractions.

Love it when he does the "victory" sign!

Headed over to VivoCity, lunched at Marche, went into Sentosa and chill and Del Mar! All you need is a bucket of Coronas on a hot and sunny day. Peeeeeerfect. Chill the afternoon away with great music and random jokes...

Had a greeeat week, and im starting to miss him already!

Sweet Love - ROM

2008-09-16T21:27:00.003+08:00

Specially for my lovely cousin Ee-lynn. This post is dedicated to you... May you stay blissfully in love always. Really look forward to your wedding dinner babe!!

Prep work! All the make-up, hair-styling. It's was an outdoor-bali theme which explains my flowery dress from Zara!

Beautiful beautiful place... So in love with the venue! It's so lovely it's perfect.

It was a touching moment. Two hearts will now beat as one... And you will never guess what happened next....

I FREAKING DROPPED MY CAMERA.

LIKE NO SHIZ, I DROPPED IT.

IT'S LIKE DEAD NOW.

I'm not even kidding! Halfway through the soleminzation, i accidentally hit John's arm and the camera flew outta my hand and landed on the ground with a thump... I swear to god my heart froze. Now the camera is officially spoilt. I cant even bare to look at it now because it's seriously in a horrible state.......

Thankfully we have another DSLR to capture all the wonderful moments...

Happy Engagement!

Just finished watching The Bucket List and i'm crying so hard i look like a total mess now... Truly touched my heart on how two complete strangers struggles to discover the joy in their life before it's too late. I cried so bad!! Choking on my tears, i learnt something important in life today. This inspired salute to life proves that the best time of all is right now...

he invited me over to his place. it's a really nice condo where the lift doors open and your unit is right infront of your doorstep. i really liked the place; so cosy and simple. (and clean! given the fact that he stays by himself and have to do all the cleaning...) he opened up a beautiful bottle of 2006 new zealand white wine and prepared fruits. we had the music turned on, dimmed the lights and chill the night away... i had a great time. xoxo.

Peter Yang. 08/08/08. Dad.

2008-08-09T16:03:00.007+08:00

Birthday Bash at the Glass House - Sentosa Cove was great! Nicely-done event by the Company. Beautiful place, good food with matching wines. I'll show you guys the pics once our professional photographer passed them to us. And i still owe you the Redang pics! Yikeees...

So Peter is in town again! Finally had the chance to spend some time with him and catch up. Seriously, the relationship with Peter is so weird. We were just talking about it over coffee; getting to know him so randomly when i was in Cambodia was just about a year ago but it seems like we've known each other for a loooog time ! It's just so strange. And besides, he's 10 years older than me! I reckon this is what you call a weird chemistry...

Show-off nails. Pretty neat huh, i kinda like that colour...

Crashed by Peter's hotel room at Four Seasons. His room number was 1313 loh. Like WTF!! During 7th month! Holycow it's creepy... Anywho Four Seasons rooms was so niceee! Met him again on Fri afternoon at Esplanade. Max Brenner cups are so cutee. The chocolate soufflé was damn good loh. Peter's looking kinda geeky in his Prada specs...

Time 08:08AM Date 08/08/08.

Dont believe? Click that pic. Right-click and save it. Look at the properties. I purposely calculate my timing in order to shoot this pic! I mean cmon, this only happen once in a lifetime!! I have to take a pic of it...

Happy Birthday Dad.

Travel Trilogy - Sydney; others

2008-08-09T15:06:00.007+08:00

Gotta finish up the rest of Sydney pics which are all kinda random...

Woke up early on Sunday Morning. Map in my hand and went over to Paddy's Market to shop for knick knacks! I bought tons of stuff there. You'll see later...

Brown MINI! My dream car. Walked back to hotel and Justin picked me up to spent the afternoon. Didnt take much pics that time cos i still had a swollen eye. Zzz. Drove to the Fish Market and it was f-king crowd. Left and had Italian for lunch. Coffee and Max Brenner. HugMug makes me feel so much better!

Weather was frigglin ass cold on Sunday. To give you an idea on how strong the wind was - Was cruising in Justin's car on the highway and he let go off the steering wheel... the freaking car got slightly "blown" off the lane! Seriously, you could see the car move cos the wind outside was so strong!

Presentation ended smoothly on Monday. Afterwhich, we took a train to Bondi Beach for shopping. The newly open Apple Store was stunning!

Proudly displaying all my buys! On the king-size bed... It's super big loh and i was staying alone in that room. Clearly the bed is too big for me! I probably occupied 1/10 of the bed only... which was really comfortable though. Best buy were wines, Tim-Tam and junkies that you cant find in SG, Darrell Lea Chocolates, tourist-ish stuff...

Last night in Sydney, we had steak at the famous Kingsley Steakhouse for dinner. Early next morning, we went to the Fish Market again before we fly back to SG.

I TELLING YOU THAT THING IS HUGE!

zomg the oysters were absolutely amazing. Incredibly cheeeeap and so so fresh that i could taste the sea!! I gluped them down like shots, savouring the wonderful taste of the vast ocean...

Sydney ended just like that. I must say my 2nd trip to Sydney was so much better than the first. I actually missed the cold weather. And i wonder when's the next trip back to Sydney again!! xoxo

singfest 2008

2008-08-01T22:59:00.003+08:00

So so looking foward to Singfest this year! Alicia Keys, Jason Mraz, OneRepublic, PCD... All jam-packed in 1 concert. How frigglin' cool is that??

One hell of a paaaaaarty, going with good friends, boooze and music. It's gonna be so goooood!!

Have a good weekend y'all~

Travel Trilogy - Sydney; Blue Mountains

2008-07-27T12:13:00.007+08:00

Another day trip on the weekends that was fully spent on exploring the other parts of Sydney. 48km west of Sydney, about a 2hours bus ride brings you to the stunning Blue Mountains. It's absolutely beautiful. Words cant justify nor describe how fantastic the view was, not even picture. Seriously, you have to be there to see it yourself...

Often mistaken as kangaroos at first glance, Wallaby are the marsupials found in the lands of Australia. Wallabies range in size from the size of a rabbit to almost 6 ft long.

The other animals at the zoo. Not enclosed in any cage, they run/hop around the zoo freely, allowing tourists to get closer to them. I got to feed the Wallabies and it's so ticklish when they nibble the food from my palm!

Australia's most loved and most popular mammal! The word Koala is an Aboriginal word meaning "no water". Koala is the native 'bear' of the continent but the fact is Koala has no relation to a bear. It is actually a distant cousin to the Wombat. A koala is probably one of the most docile and cuddly animals on earth. A typical koala spends about 20% of its time feeding, nearly 80% sleeping, and less than 1% grooming, traveling and seeking mates... Geeez~

More animals!

Top left is an albino kangaroo, koala and my favourite Wombat! Totally love it. Round and fat and so cutee!

Finally arrived at Blue Mountains. We were blessed with a clear day and got to see the best of it... Oh, did i mention it was so cold up there!!

It's stunning.... Awesome view~ Got to be the best i've seen so far in Sydney. As the name suggest, the mountain actually does seems kinda blue ya?

The road around Blue Mountains actually involves a skyway, cableway, walkway and railway. The most exciting one has got to be the railway! The 415m descent will take you through a cliff side tunnel into ancient rain forest. It has also been known as the steepest incline Railway in the world. I was literally screaming my heart out. Imagine riding down a CLIFF side tunnel... It's insane!

More of the beautiful Blue Mountains. Spot the Three Sisters?

Sunset view. We took a long ferry ride back to Sydney Habour. Sat in the open air and was freezing my life away in the cold. Day ended and Blue Mountains was one of the best places i've seen. I noticed houses near toward the cliff just opposite Blue Mountains. Imagine waking up to this amazing view every morning. What more can you ask for?

Okay I gotta end here. Just finish a 9km walk all the way from Mount Faber to Kent Ridge Park. It was actually quite good... Will blog more abt the rest of Sydney next week. Cheeers y'all~

Travel Trilogy - Sydney; Hunter Valley

2008-07-24T22:05:00.007+08:00

The weekends were planned to explore Sydney. We signed up for a tour to bring us to Hunter Valley and i am so so glad that i went ahead with this. It is slightly pricey for a 1 day tour but it's sure worth it. Visiting the Hunter Valley is a way to experience and enjoy the good things in Australian life and to reward myself.

Just some background history before i roll out the pictures: "The Hunter Valley is Australia’s oldest and one of its most well-known wine regions. Here you will find world-class Hunter Valley Semillon that has been called “Australia’s unique gift to the world’, great Australian Shiraz that lasts for generations, and generations of family winemakers that are here to tell the tale."

As usual, the weather was chilly and sunny at the same time...

1st winery - Iron Gates. Drank a good mix of red & white wines.

When you have your first sip of the beautiful wine, it rolls to the back of your tongue, sending a tingling sensation to all your taste buds. You can even taste the oak that the wine was store in for ageing. Wine also taste different after you eat a piece chocolate. Absolutely complimenting to each other. I hate olives and i cant stand the taste of it. But the lovely people at Iron Gates soaked olives in wines and it taste so so good!

Tour of the winery. Explanation of how wines are made. See the American Oak Barrels? Wine are stored in the barrels for years and i swear you can literally taste the oak when you drink the wines from Iron Gates.

Headed over for lunch. There is no shortage of choice when you have over 60 restaurants, 120 wineries and 160 accommodation venues to choose from at Hunter Valley. The next time when im back at Hunter, i would want to stay over in one of the many wineries, get wasted and drink my life away with all the wines. Any takers?

The ruffles of leaves, branches as the wind blows. Winter seems so so cold...

Wine and Chocolate.

2nd winery - Ernest Hill. As it's fairly a small winery, bottles of wine they made every year are exclusively sold only at Hunter Valley. You can not buy it anywhere else off the racks.

I bought 2 bottles of Semillon, sweet dessert wine. Absolutely stunning~ Felt so happy after drinking that wine! It's so sweet that it just made you happy instantly. Well, i was probably feeling drunk/high after so many glasses of wine tasting and i was flushing red! That picture is not the effect of the sunlight my dear friend. I was so so RED it's embarrassing...

But who cares... I held the bottles of Semillon and felt that happiness was right in my hands.

Told you my face was flushing red... It's true, these photos are evident. Went back to the bus and slept all the way back to Syd. It was a 2hours and 45mins drive back home. Cant really remember what happened next... I think i went out for dinner in the freezing cold weather at night and had a great night sleep.

Boy oh boy how i loveeeee wines... I should drink these everyday.

Travel Trilogy - Sydney; Arthur

2008-07-23T20:44:00.009+08:00

I was so ~~affected~~ traumatised by the drama that i even dreamt abt it! And it was the biggest fight you could ever imagine. I woke up, heart pounding from all the shouting in that dream. Scarily weird as it may seems, I literally felt that i vented and let out all that i have inside... - in that dream.

Sydney was so much fun. Was in Syd a week for a business trip, took advantage of the trip there and explore Syd. Didnt have much time the last time i was there... This trip made it all up. Meet Arthur on my first day, spent the day with him, hence the title. You would have read abt him from my previous post, so here are all his pics. Professionally taken by Arthur:

Weather was brrreezing cold in Sydney! Fog was so thick that morning. Thankfully it cleared up later in the afternoon, we had great picture ahead! Arthur picked me up from the Hotel, we roamed the streets while swooping our kebahs for breakfast and takeaway coffee.

Walked all the way to the Opera House. Beautiful day; sunny and cooling.

Sitting by the sidewalks, people watching, enjoying the breeze, soaking in the sun, admiring the Opera House, waiting for Arthur while he figure out which lens to use... - that was the moment when everything in life seems to slow down a'lil...

Climbed up the Sydney Opera House, took more pics. The previous time in Sydney, i only saw the nightview of Opera House. And i must say... the dayview is so much better! (and brighter...)

Took a ferry to Manly Beach.

Seriously, i didnt even know there were so many pics of me. Was happily playing/running away from the crashing waves while the shutter went off. I actually like the pics! You gotta agree that my backview looks so much better...

Strolling along beach.

Sat by the cliff, legs dangling off the cliff, sound of the waves crashing onto the rocks.

Ferry back to town. Had dinner, went to Chinatown. Was so tired on the 1st day. Caught up with SG colleagues and some of the Australians for drinks.

I had a great time spending the day with Arthur. The Opera House looks absolutely amazing. Thanks to Arthur for all the awesome photos. These memorable pictures are now part of my desktop wallpaper and it looks damn good on my laptop i tell you. Thought i can share a couple of good pictures with you...

Always loveed the black and white effect. (Credits: Adrian G.)

Sepia is really vintage too. (Credits: Adrian G.)

Pretty aye?

Quality photos from quality cameras. (Credits: Arthur Tong.)

I have 3 more parts to the Sydney picture. So hang in there!

Travel Trilogy - Hong Kong

2008-07-21T21:09:00.020+08:00

Amidst my utter disappointment, i figure sharing my travel pics might help me get over it. Don't you like the title that i came up with?? I think Travel Trilogy is so so exciting! Decided to collage all my picture this time round. I cant be painstakingly uploading pictures one by one for Travel Trilogy. I think it's so much neater in a collage. Hope you guys like it!

So this HK trip was a treat from me to my parents. Got them a Cathay Pacific air tix while i flew Jetstar to HK. Save $$$! Dad's friend join us too. So there was 6 of us in total. I flew to HK first, made my way to the hotel (via train,bus,walk - godammit...) and waited for them. That Mango dessert was damn good loh. Why was it close down in SG anyway??

HK is really what you see on the TV. The HK-looking housings, high end condos. With limited space constrain, everything goes upwards...

Victoria's Peak was beautiful at night. Lovely lights from the skyscrapers.

Meeting famous people! I think Jay Chou one damn fake loh. Like WTF?? It's so not him! Probably the only wax figure that was done so badly. I'm sorry man, but that is NOT Jay Chou. I insisted!! I'm sure you'll agree~

LKY. Recognise anyone else?

I personally felt that the Andy Lau one was over-rated. Peirce Brosnan was so much hotter!

Yao Ming is damn f-ing tall, I wanna learn golf and I heart The Beatles!

Star Ave. Neon lights. Ladies' Street.

Harbour, Victoria's Peak during the day.

Causeway Bay. Jackie Chan's residency. Temple.

God of Wealth! Huat ah!! Longevity Bridge.

Boat ride. Expensive looking yatch. Jumbo looks damn big. Jumbo indeed!

Random pics. Huge Char Siew and SUPER SMALL ROOM, i'm not even kidding... The toilet and room door cannot be open at the same time. Smallest room i've even seen!

Visited Grandma and Aunt's place in HK. Wanted to make a trip to Macau on the last day but there was a horrible typhooon. Hotel was lockdown. Everyone had to stay in. I had to go refund my tix to Macau after the typhoon was over. Aftermath of the typhoon was bad though; everywhere was wet, you practically see broken umbrella in every rubbish bin, shops were closed....

Will probably have to travel to Macau again next time. Bummer! HK was quite a short trip. I went back home to SG 1 day earlier while the folks continue their shopping quest. Honest to blog, i didnt really like HK. All the shopping is so not interesting to me man. Was so looking forward to Macau, it'll prolly be better...

Ohwell, next time round then. Anyone?

the (last) farewell

2008-07-21T01:36:00.003+08:00

I'm typing this at 3am in the morning. Cant believe i'm still awake at this hour!

Oh holy Mr. Man Above, you really do love to play lil tricks and pranks on me dont you... Well, it was a good one. Everything i have seen, heard, known about tonight was more than enough. And i had enough. It shouldnt be this hard. Seriously, for all that i have put in - I think i'm worth more than this. If this is how it's gonna be done, then I guess it's the end.

Sour grapes never taste so sour

2008-07-20T16:03:00.006+08:00

so how's everyone? it's been a while ya. I finally handed in my 8000 word essay. (Everyone farking hell screeeeam YEAH with me!) It's been war for the last week. Work was rough, Schoolwork was worse. Draining all my energy away, i still wanna show you guys my travel pics. Those are probably the only stuff now that are keeping my sanity alive. So stay tuned for all the pics... I'm staying awake at night to get all these done.

Just randomly, i never log on to facebook till this afternoon. (cos i have no clue how to use it. Yes, believe it or not. I'm not even kidding abt it...) Anywho, i knew my instinct and intuition are always right, never was i wrong. NEVER. Guys listen to me, always always trust a women's intuition. I'm so not doubting about what the heart's telling me anymore. But you should have told me earlier and i would not have flew over.

Somethings are just not worth it when you dont see the appreciation from others. Guess i found out too late. Well, better late that never. Sour grapes never taste so sour. And it's proven once again, stupidity and foolishness have always been my forte.

Love all...

But not you anymore.

home

2008-07-08T20:45:00.005+08:00

I'M SO BACK. Been flying around for the past few weeks. Finally got back home, in my own crib. Still, it was fun travelling all around. Redang was absolutely beautiful. White sandy beach. Clear blue water. The BEST beach i've seen so far. Definitely worth a trip there to relax & enjoy yourself. For this Redang trip:

- I had a new tan
- Snorkelled for the first time
- Swam past baby sharks
- Corals reefs that looks like beautiful castles to the fishes
- Do nothing except for sleeping at the beach

Pure bliss. No one was disturbing my peaceful life there. We had a great Company Conference 2008. And im glad i extended my trip in Redang! Been swimming through hundreds of pictures. Wished i can show you guys all my pics. Just for teaser, lemme just show you 1 pic of Redang:

That place is exactly how the photo looks like. Awesome right!

I've got tons of pics i owe you guys:

- Sydney (11th June - 17th June)

- Hong Kong (23th June - 25th June)

- Redang (2th July - 6th July)

Will be busy with assignment deadlines now.

Till im back for all the pics!

Back from Hong Kong

2008-06-29T10:46:00.002+08:00

I'm back. Spent the week clearing tons of emails and recovering from a slight flu. In summary, Hong Kong was pretty much just shopping and eating. The only stuff i've brought back was 2 tops and pasteries. THAT'S ALL. I figure shopping is really not my kinda "thing" afterall...

To add on, we experienced typhoon on the day before i flew back. Hotel was locked down, no one could go out, we're all stuck indoors till the news announced it's safe to head out. Was supposed to go to Macau that day, but had to get my tickets refunded, bummer. Flight home was delayed, reached SG in the wee hours of 3am.

Leaving for Redang on Wed afternoon. Having a Company conference there, plus i extended my stay. Will be back on Sunday. Sunny island here i come.

Love all.

2008-06-22T22:56:00.002+08:00

Had a night flight on the Airbus. Check-in early to get the Upper Deck seat. SO MUCH BETTER. The guy beside me probably hated me and decided to change his seats. I got both seats to myself, hooray~ Arrived Sydney at 5.30am, check-in hotel and waited for Arthur.

Now alil bit more about Arthur Tong - both of us came a long long way man. We go way back into our Secondary school days. We were prefects (yes i know, stop laughing.) on-duty at the staircase. I haven seen him since he further his studies overseas. Isn't the world so so small? Out of so many places, we're reuniting in a foreign land.

So get ready. The following photos are all just me and only me. Arthur become my personal photographer and i barely took out my camera. All Photo Credits to Arthur Tong. Every photo in this entry are his. Do visit his site over HERE. I think he's photography skills are awesome. Keep up the good work dude!

P/S : So i actually finished blogging about my Sydney - Day 1, but there seems to be some problems with the pictures! Before i have time to figure them out, it's gonna be on Thursday. I've uploaded some pics over HERE. You can view them first b4 i blogged about it again.

Once again, thanks to Arthur for spending the day with me. I had a great time catching up with him and laughing at/about our old school days. Those were the days and we've all grown up now... Thanks again for all the photos! Catch up again when you're in town! I know u're waiting for this post. 3 cheers for Arthur! *BIGHUG*

The rest of Sydney pictures will probably have to wait till end of this week...

Cos i'm flying off to Hong Kong tmr morning!!

Well well, what can i say...

we live to travel.

xoxo

DANCING 2008

2008-06-21T12:26:00.005+08:00

So im back from Sydney. Been experiencing the jetlag the whole week. Waking up at 4am (it's 6am in Sydney) and i cant go back to sleep. Decided to go online and check out Where the Hell is Matt - Matt Harding. If you guys still remember about him, i danced with him at the Merlion in Feb. Click here to read more - Dancing with Matt in SG.

Well guess what. THE VIDEO IS OUT!! DANCING 2008. I was absolutely thrilled to see the launch of the video at his website!! As i sat infront of my laptop at 4am in the morning, i watched this amazing video:

I laughed, i cried. I tear so bad at the end of the video.

All you see in this video is joy, happiness, hope, laughters, cheers and amazing places through a goofy dance.

Where language, race, religion and culture were no barriers and we all just dance and have some fun.

No job, no stress, no pain. I see the smile on all of the dancers & think abt the world we lived in, the places that i haven been to.

I was truly touched... Matt have always been and will always be an inspiration to me.

Adding on, the soundtrack was perfect for the video too. My fav clip was at Tongatapu, Tonga - when the waves crashed in. How amazing! That was when i started tearing uncontrollably and i cant stop. All that point of time, the feeling was just indescribable.

India was so cute. Swimming past a whale. Dancing at Zero Gravity. Then i saw SINGAPORE, our Merlion seems far more bigger than the teeny weeny us at the side. Trying spoting me!! Watch the Youtube video in high quality. I bet you can see me right there.

14 months in the making, 42 countries, and a cast of thousands. I'm so so glad that i participated in this dance with Matt and the other dancers. It's probably the best thing that has EVER happened to me for this year. My day seems a lil brighter today.

Sydney... again!

2008-06-07T12:01:00.003+08:00

Looks like i'm going back to Sydney again early than i thought! Which is pretty exciting cos i've been whining about not having enough time to explore Sydney. Will be flying on the 11th night and coming back on the 17th night, both on A380 Airbus. Hopefully the flight this time round will be much better than the other time!

Gotta be there for work (a very important presentation that's worth AUD$10,000 if i win!!) and for leisure. Will definitely be planning for a trip to Blue Mountain and Hunter Valley Vineyard for the weekends. That should be really fun. And i've gotta packed lots of clothes and jackets cos they say the weather there has been real bad man.... Yikes.

So take care y'all! Will be bringing my laptop there. Keep in touch on MSN or Skype. IM when you see me online!

Till im back.

Oz pt. 6 - Last pics for Oz

2008-05-30T20:59:00.013+08:00

I've been so friggin busy this whole week and there's more to come! And i'm super depressed cos there's no one i can rant my grumbles to, other than this blog. So i figure the best way to let it all out is to finish blogging about my last Oz trip. At least those were happier times that i've captured. Last few pics for Oz!

Morning Etallong

Seaview

Started off with me taking picture...

Then Alan came.

Wilson and Karen.

and everyone from SG office took this group shot!

Fun and Games

Kayaking. (the water was so shallow i could paddle with my bare hands...)

Horse-riding

Embracing Mother Nature

Archery

Travelled past Sydney Trademark Bridge on the way back!

Opera House

I really didnt have the time to explore Syd at all...

and the nightview was magnificantly beautiful... Didnt take much night shots cos it's really dark and i couldnt capture anything good with just minimal camera flash. =(

Met Justin again for dinner at Italian.

Pasta was so so good. I really feel like i'm in Italy!

Went for drinks after dinner. It was Fashion Week and we saw fireworks. Sweet!!

My Oz trip ended off with this pic. It was the last photo in my camera. And i had a great time.

So let your imagination run wild....

American Idol Season 7

2008-05-19T20:55:00.006+08:00

I can predict the winner of American Idol Season 7.

it's gonna be..... *drumrolls*

DAVID!!

oh right... (-_-")

It's David vs David. The 2 Davids face-off.

It's really kinda weird cos i'm seriously not a fan of American Idol. But i've spent my Vesak Day catching up on all the episodes of AI Season 7. I mean Archuleta is all cutesy and young and such a American sweetheart...

But Cook is definitely my man y'all. "Always be my Baby" was so so amazing. Certainly one of the most outstanding performances i'll remember for. "Dont wanna miss a thing" was kick-ass too. When i first listened to that song, it sent shivers down my spine and goosebumps all over!!

AC initial on his guitar stands for his 2 brothers' name Adam Cook and Andrew Cook. Adam Cook, 36 years - the oldest of them, is undergoing chemotherapy for his second diagnosis of brain cancer that he has been battling for the last 10 years. Lately it's been spread to his spine... Which explains why some of David's performances are actually quite emotional. Either way, i think he's already a winner.

David COOK is so winning AI.

I'm really rooting for you baby!!! GO FOR IT.

timbre + yt

2008-05-19T10:17:00.011+08:00

In celebration of Roy's bday, i seriously had a hard time finding a suitable present for him. Like he's so boring i really have no idea/clue what to get for him! So anws, i got him a formal shirt from G2000 Black Label. Apparently, the shirt from Black Label are of better quality and of cos... higher co$t. Headed over to Arthouse Timbre for dinner and drinks on Fri night!

Sunset.

Bought myself a new charm~

I always didnt like the Mojito at Timbre, so i decided to try a new cocktail this time round. Caipirinha - National drink of Brazil. (which is not really good tooo, eeeks~)

Sautéed Mushrooms

Timbre Chicken Wings!!

(I think i can finish like 5 baskets of this...YUMMIE.)

Caesar Salad

Seafood Platter

Half on Half Pizza. Tandoori Chicken and Roasted Duck.

Nightfall.

Chi Chi - another new drink i tried.

Vodka, Malibu and Pineapple Juice. A really smooth drink for a hot hot day!

What a small small world! Jason Lim had his farewell at Timbre too... I sent a dedication to the band and sabo-ed him on stage to sing. LOL!! And the Goodfellas rocks man. I had a great time, good music all night~

Timbre sells Absinthe Black 85%!

Came across this article on a mag abt Absinthe... It's mentioned inside that Absinthe "has been the muse of writers, the inspiration for painters and, uh... the reason behind mass murders and attempted suicides." *YIKES!*

So Absinthe Black 85% really exist... That's so evil y'all~

Meet YT to waste our time on a lazy Sunday afternoon... Was chilling at the Dome cafe - SG Art Museum. Pls dont ask me why i crossed my legs while taking this pic, i dont have the faintest clue either...

I RE-DYED MY HAIR.

Not exactly the colour i wanted. It's like copper-ish brown and i look like a punk...

Ohwell, i'll just have to live with it then~

EMO!

Thank God for good friends! Sunday seems more fun.

Bought T-shirts...

and the camera necklace! It's so cute lah!! I have to get it...

SO I'M HAPPY NOW.

This is a short week, enjoy the public holiday and the next weekend will be near soon!

THIS IS IT - My defination of "The Dream Guy."

Love the fashion style, wavy hair, charming smile, intense blue eyes... everything is almost close to perfection. And he's only 22 years old... Okay i know this is so so random, but i just cant find the words to express this disappointment in life that i'm feeling now. (So im using Chace as my cover, haha.) I'm staring at the screen, but no words came out. I still have my last bit of Oz pics... Will blog abt them when im feeling better.

xoxo.

realize

2008-05-14T17:09:00.004+08:00

if you just realize what i just realized

then we'd be perfect for each other

and will never find another

just realized what i just realized

we'd never have to wonder if

we missed out on each other now...

Oz Pt. 5 - Etallong Day 1

2008-05-13T17:14:00.016+08:00

Etallong Day 1. Headed down to Market St and checked out the new office. It's really nice!! I like how the layout of each cubicles is facing outwards - overlooking a great view and enhancing a clear mind...

Board Room

View of office facing Syd Darling Harbour.

Frontdesk

Slept/Studied all the way till Etallong. Arrived for BBQ lunch.

Steak and Kebah was good!

I must say, this Ettalong Beach Resort is a pretty niceee place.

The swimming pool is heated.

Workshop. Zzzz~

Jacuzzi in our hotel room toilet!

The hotel is so well-equipped with washing m/c, dryer, microwave, everything!

We were on Level 1, stepped out of the balcony and it's the swimming pool.

Getting ready for dinnner.

Jackpot!

Ladies.

Starter - Salmon with a teeny weeny bit of caviar!

TEENY WEENY. Almost countable...

Main Course.

Dessert.

Mark.

After dinner was KARAOKEEEEE~

The karaoke damn funny one loh. No MTV, just words on the screen...

and everyone is on the dancefloor!

it was actually quite fun!! i enjoyed myself.

Michaeeel!! I'm telling you this guy is so cuteeee! I seriously adored him man... He's so sporty, spontaneous, good sport, fun-loving, bags of laughters! I wished i can show you guys the vid i got. He went on stage to sing "I'll Survive," we were cheering for him on the dancefloor! He so so cuteee lah...

Jay da man~

Noticed my arms and legs? i'm like sitting in a pretty awkward position! But the night was all good fun. Stay till midnight before we headed back to our rooms. Day 1 ended just like that~

This whole week has been bad y'all. I'm so not in the clear state of mind. I'm upset over the slightly issue, getting sensitive and paranoid, declared cold war at random ppl at random time, making ppl upset... It's either i'm finally realising the REAL ME or it's PMS-ing soon.

fcuk.

Rose Gold

2008-05-13T12:02:00.006+08:00

Skipped lunch today, so i decided to blog a'lil before i leave office for the day... Just when i thought i lost my phone now and forever, i started looking out for new phones in the market. (before that, i spent the night grumbling/weeping the lost of my hp to buddy and cat... i cant believe i was so careless!!)

Then i saw this series of Rose Gold mobile phones and ipods... OMG. I always wanted to have a Rose Gold item!! Saw a Rose Gold ring last year, but that design isnt available anymore. I have to like custom made/order it. Should have gotten it when i first saw it...

"Rose gold is a gold and copper alloy widely used for specialized jewerly due to its reddish colour. Traditionally used for wedding bands due to it's beauty, along with its structural integrity, nonchalant refinement, grace and ease. A quiet dignity and a sensual warmth..."

iphone.
Nokia
SAMSUNG!

Isnt it so pretty!! I think is damn chio loh... It cost about £1000 GBP, roughly S$2700. Though it didnt cross my mind that i must get it, but i think it's pretty cool if i owe one of them. And being the most loyal fan, i'll only look at Samsung phones.

itouch

Classic ipod (which is so much more sexier than itouch...)

Nano

oh did i tell you guys i lose my ipod nano too?

I've been losing things lately and i'm spendin my time finding 'em at godknowswhere is it. Help.

Oz Pt.4 - Sydney

2008-05-11T11:37:00.023+08:00

There's no place in the world like Sydney... Voted as the world’s favourite city, you can never be wrong. Holly molly folly jolly!

*I HEART SYDNEY!*

Flying Domestic - Virgin Blue back to Syd.

Love the skyline in this pic.

Saw a'lil of the beautiful sunrise.

Sofitel Wentworth. The hotel i was staying in.

Dropped my luggages, showered, headed out. No time to waste!

All the branded, high-end boutiques are in these areas.

Guide Dogs!

One of the many old buildings...

I love the tiles! Coloufully Vintage.

I think it's so cuteee...

Fell in love with all these buildings...

Old old lift.

Fancy isnt it!

Spiral.

Glass Paintings. It's so Victorian~

Mirror, mirror.

"Around The World" Clock.

This is the Toilets loh...

Serisously, it's so cool that I can like camp inside...

Amazed by all design and architecture of the buildings.

Kebah!

First meal in Sydney.

I wanna show you guys that....

at a cross junction, you can actually cross diagonally!

Queen?

Walked back to my hotel, grabbed the box of stuff for Justin and Joey and walked all the way to our Office in Pitt Street. Justin told me over the phone that it will take only approx 15mins from hotel to their place... So yeaa, 15mins walk was pretty okay right~

Well guess what - Ben Xiao Jie reached there half an hour later, totally out of breath!! Thanks Justin, i know u missed me sooooo muuuuuh. I was carrying 6 boxes of cookies from Bengawan Solo. Flying all the way from SG to our Project Managers in Oz... Thank god to the cooling weather at night!! Well, though the walk was long but there was alot to seeee~

Mojito. Prolly the only cocktail i drink...

Had drinks at The Arthouse. The Mojito was damn power lah! Face uber red and Joey is so cute~

Justin.

Joey went back to cook dinner for BF. (so sweeeet) Justin bought me out for dinner. This underground Jap restaurant - Masuya was almost full house for dinner when we arrived!

Salmon Sashimi

Rainbow roll

Tempura

Wagyu Premium Beef Teriyaki

Thanks Justin for dinner! I enjoyed it. By far the best meal i've eaten on Oz Land. Sent me back to hotel, rested and packed a lil. Etallong tmr!!

Sidenote : I'm not a fan of American Idol, but this rendition of "Always be my Baby" was just beautiful. David Cook sang it in a total different style, he made it a song of his own and i love it. Nailed it perfectly!

*you'll always be a part of me...

Oz Pt.3 - Chinatown + Last night

2008-05-07T20:12:00.020+08:00

Last second day in Brisbane... Buddy's got school. Friend Brown and Jacq brought me around town!

Cruisin'

Some backpackers' inn.

Chinatown.

My jacket makes me look preg like juno...

Not a very amazing Chinatown though...

Bought a new car. My dream Mini!

I'm such the perfect driver for this car.

Anybody knows what this signboard means?

Lynn! This is for you.

It's so big...

Hot Mocha and Coffee Art. I think it's very pretty~

Brown...

And Jacq. Thanks for spending the afternoon!

Went to visit buddy at his uni.

It's really a nice and conducive place to study~

Take a break by the lake... (Hey it rhythms!)

Eeew! 4-legged creepy crawler!

He just went on shooting emo backview pics of me. Damn! =S

Crossing bridge.

I kinda wish i was studying there too!

Made dinner for the rest to thank the hosts for their hospitality.

Had Pizza, Pasta and wine.

Was too hungry that the food was gobble up b4 i could snap a shot of it.

Absinthe aka Green Fairy. This drink is banned in Singapore.

It's illegal to sell or manufacture Absinthe. It's very evil!!

So this was the room that i've been sleeping for the past few days. Room was in a mess!

Had all my books on this already messy table-> Bigger MESS.

So i occupied his whole queen size bed... he gave it up.

the whole queen size bed!!

and took the teeny weeny corner beside my bed... =))

yea it's that small... haha, isnt he so sweet!! He actually liked it there.

It was really cold on my last night in Brisbane. Like 12degree outside! Freaking cold, we had to use the heater to keep warm... I was in 2 layers of blankets and I simply refused to move an inch! We slept really late and had to wake up at 5am for my domestic flight to Sydney. Buddy sent me to the airport with the exorbitant taxi fare of $AUD50, which is abt S$64... How insane is that!!

BUDDIES

This concluded my stay in Brisbane with Buddy! It was really a fun experience to crash over at his place, kinda felt like I was studying there too. I really like it there though. The weather, the friendly people, the pace of life. It's the perfect place for me to escape from my current life!! Will definitely crash over there again when I'm losing myself here and need a good hideout place there.

Next up will be Sydney!

But for now, i neeed to sleeeeeeep. Gdnight world~

Oz Pt.2 - Southbanks + Queens St

2008-05-06T20:27:00.012+08:00

Since we got back really late the night before, slept in till quite late on the Sunday before heading out. It's so cold at night we dont even need the fan! Just leave the window open with the nice cold wind... SWEET!

A park behind buddy's house where we took the ferry. The clear blue sky have got no clouds... So pretty isnt it.

Some temple right smacked in the middle of Southbanks.

Here comes all the tourist pics...

Southbanks is pretty too! Walking along the river with the skyscrapers as the backdrop.

I kinda like this pic... Capturing the sunlight shining brightly with the lanterns as the subject focus.

Apparently, this building behind is a casino. BIG MONEY!

This is my fav too! Done absolutely NO editing to pic. Just the natural lights, beautiful formation of clouds, a corner of a building. I like it...

No idea what's that. Kinda cute though, it moves...

Kangaroo!! Made from recycled metal part. How COOL~

Since i didnt managed to see a real one...

I attempted to communicate with Roo.

Cute packaging of Donuts.

Bought a new Slim Havaianas there. Cheaper than in SG. I got it at AUD$29! Supa happy. Good deal huh~ Ignore my blisters, it never heals. Thanks to wearing high heels to work everyday. And yea, i have pretty freaky long toes.... Pls stop staring at it!

Some surf shops. I think it's cool~

Okay they build this man-made beach in the middle of Southbanks okay... Kick-ass! So creative loh.

Sitting on the bench, eating pizzas, watching the sunset and the night falls...

Train Station.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall! The movie theatre is super big. Look at that damn screen!! It's so big i felt like i was watching a movie at the OMNI-Theatre of our Discovery Centre. No Joke!

RICE. FINALLY...

Went back home and rest after movies. Freezing cold outside. Tried to study a'lil, gotta prepare for my exams. The 3rd Day in Brisbane was pretty much nothing cos Buddy was having lessons in sch. I stayed home, checked my emails and tidied up his messy room... (which was clearly impossible to finish packing.) So anyway, he got back and we went to the supermarket nearby to grab some stuff. We were planning to cook dinner for the rest as a gesture to thank them for their hospitality and lodging. Stay tune for more.

*XOXO*

Oz Pt.1 - Brisbane, Surfers Paradise.

2008-05-04T16:34:00.018+08:00

SO I'M BACK! What a awesome, kick-ass trip. I almost just wanna settle down there and not come back for the time being... Wookays i'm just gonna cut the crap and go straight into pictures ya... There's a hell lot of 'em to cover!

Huge Koi at T3!

Airbus A380 dinner. I had a bad night flight. Didnt slept well, was having a horrible motion sickness, watched Juno. I LOVED IT! Background song playing - All i Want is You... I think the Airbus is awesome~

Arrived at Sydney airport, jam-packed with people!

Transit at Domestic Airport to Brisbane. Was lugging 4 bags along the way and everyone was looking at me all weird! One fellow Aussie laughed that though i was travelling alone, i have quite alot of stuff with me. 16kgs of stuff, no joke man. I single-handed carry 'em all the way to Brisbane!

FYI - Half of which are NOT my stuff...

Glad i didnt get checked though! I see the others literally flipping the stuffs in their luggage inside out and upside down... If i flipped everything out, i'm gonna have a hard time stuffing them back. Was in the middle of the never ending long queue of custom check when this Immigration Guy approached me.

Immigration Guy : Are you travelling alone?

Me : Yes...

Immigration Guy : What's inside your bag?

Me : Oh, just some clothes and pills. (i declared them...)

Immigration Guy : What kind of pills?

Me : Vitamins, supplement omega pills and stuff...

Immigration Guy : Okay... you know what am i gonna do to you?

Me : (starting to panic and freak out a lil...) urm... whaaaat?

Immigration Guy : You see the exit infront? Just walk straight and leave, have a gd'day!

Me: (omgawd you farking scared the shenanigan out of me lah....) OH GREAT THANKS!

So ya... they didnt checked my bag, i dont have to pull everything out and wait forever in the queue, woohooooo!

Krispy Kreme for Breakfast.

It's so nice to watch the planes fly in and out as i ponder in awe about the genius who invented airplanes. You so rock my world man... Thank God for airplanes that brings me to places! We were flying pretty low and i took tons of pics.

Houses everywhere! No high rise at all.

By far my favourite pic of 'em all. Beautiful coastline...

See! Toldya i took alot of pics onflight. Pretty cool aye~

Reached Airport and Buddy was there to pick me up. Finally getting to see someone i know after travelling for 10hours!

Dropped the bags and head out to our 1st destination - Surfers Paradise!

Like we have to take a ferry to the city. Super duper cool one loh~

Buddy.

Rayban Avi were of good use. Almost everyone wears sunnies in Oz. It's like a must have accessories!

I wish i can take the ferry everyday! With the wind in my hair and the sun on my face. Just feels so so so gooood...

Everybody loves my Rayban~

Cuteness.

Took a 1hr plus train and arrived at Surfers!

Windy.

Very Windy...

Very Very Windy! I swear it was freaking cold.

But damn... it sure felt darn good with the cool chilly wind blowing in my face.

Jace was here. So that's Surfers Paradise for y'all~

Crashing Waves.

Last night, i dreamt that i was learning how to surf loh.... Hahaha!

Surfer Rescuers were cute tooo...

Was supposed to stay 1 night in Surfers, but there were some screwed up and i dont even wanna go into that... So forget it, and we went back home to Brisbane.

1st day in Oz land, i probably spendt 3/4 of my time travelling on air, sea and land....

Home at around 2am... But Surfers was worth all the travelling.

Well that's all for Pt.1!! Pls stay tuned for Pt.2, i promise more pics to come.

Sidenote : I AM SO LOVIN MONDAY NIGHTS! Prison Break and Lost back to back!! OMFG, 10pm - 12midnight. At least there's something to look forward to after looming past Monday Blues every weeeeeek! *Super HAPPY*=))

Lifehouse acoustic at Live@Yahoo! for Somewhere Only We Know. How can anyone not know this.... Songs like this simply made my day. Thanks buddy for sending the song over!

Michael Jackson

2008-04-07T11:43:00.005+08:00

His blog entry is to celebrate MJ 25th Anniversary Thriller CD/DVD compilations and remixes of all his classic best hits.

I think it's a little sad to think that the younger generation these days will know MJ not as the Prince of Pop, but as the completely f-king crazy albino. Teens nowadays have the mindset that old music is bad music which is SO WRONG. No matter what had happened or had not happened, in my personal opinion, MJ is definitely, without a doubt, the man of musical legacy who is indisputably the greatest pop artist in history.

Especially for those who grew up in the 80’s watching Michael moonwalk his way across the hearts and minds of America, it's almost impossible to explain the influence and power he had during that 80's era, when i wasnt even born yet! And it's really amazing how i got to know and love all his classic hits like this song playing now - Beat It. Just plugged in ur earphones and listen to it, dont you find yourself grooving to the beat with cheesy dance moves? I loveee it! Any clubs or bands that were to play this song and you'll see me down at the dancefloor man. Call me orbi or whatever you want but this is pure classic. Just Beeeeat It!

If you didnt know by now, Thriller has sold 102 million copies till date, won seven Grammys, and 7of the 9 songs on the album went No. #1. I repeated, 7 out of 9 songs. Orginally released in 1982, Thriller spent 80 weeks on the Billboard chart. 80 weeks! That's about 1 year and 7 months can. No one else will ever, ever, have that kind of success again. No matter what happen, MJ is already a legend.

Be sure to grab his album above with CD and DVD! It's simply awesome to just watch his LIVE performance of Billie Jean and the classic classic MV Thriller dance again.

out.

malacca + random

2008-04-06T11:03:00.015+08:00

Hola, and so i'm back! After the insane week of rushing for assignment and exams.... Before that, i actually squeezed out a trip to Malacca. I lugged my bloody laptop there and was still trying to finish up my assignment can... Zzz. I know i've blogged about Malacca so many times, but whatever~ Just look at peektures lah :

Nice sunrise on north-south highway! Went in early morning.

Checked out the new Holiday Inn @ Malacca. Niceee sea view!

Old town white coffee. Loveee the hazelnut white coffee!

Hippest Restaurant in town. It's like full-house on weekends at 7pm!

Shank's fin. I'm sure it tastes yummy...

Fish - now you see it...

Now you dont!

Bro eaten it... I cant stand fish bones man. Yucks~

Bei Zhan. Check it out if you're there! Pretty good food @ decent price.

My must-eat place when i'm in Malacca.

As rundown as it seems, i'm still going back!

Antiques.

Reminds me of my Cambodia trip - the Aspara Dancers.

More antiques.

The thing i like abt Malacca is they have tons of these vintage antique stuffs!

Pool at Holiday Inn Hotel.

Nice view right... feels so good to just sit in the pool and relax.

Went for spa too.

Tried this Javanese Lulur scrub...

Awesome! Skin could finally breathe.

And you can even bathe outdoor. The hotel spa is located at the furthest end so no one is around... That pretty much sums up this short getaway to Malacca. Rest of the time was spend roaming around, eating, shopping, (the new shopping centre rocks) and finishing my assignment, the usuals. Malacca trip is so frequent for me it's like a quarterly must-go trip or something. LOL.

Randoms. At work, junking on tibits that i like.

Notice anything weird?

The cookies! It's a mirror. Cuteee right~

Happy Easter!

Bel bought me chocolate Easter egg from Sydney.

Cracked egg. Yummy~

My all time favourite thai place at Golden Mile. It's the best authentic thai food that's near to my office! Located at a super sleazy place beside a thai disco pub, many thais frequent this eatery.

Clear tomyum seafood soup is chokingly hot...

Thai Milk Tea! i bet you can never find a taste like this somewhere else.

Beef fried rice.

Phay Thai.

Fishcakes.

Happy Lunch!

Dug out Dad's super vintage ray-ban aviators.

NICE LOR.

and and and, i finally had time to shop a lil after exams...

Listen up : BODYSHOP GOT SALE!

Their Africa Spa Salt Scrub!! omg omg omg, BEST scrub i've used so far. Voted as Women's Weekly best product. I tell you it's so damn frigging good~ Like after you used the scrub, you can feel that you skin is so much smoother, softer. I swear this is super tok gong one. MUST BUY! And what's more, it's usual retail price is $52.90 per tub. (which is actually quite ex but worth it.) Now got 35% discount!! ONLY $34.50!!

I bought 2 tubs...

and trying out this hand and foot butter. Suppose to moisturize the skin after bathe. I think all the Spa Wisdom Bodyshop products are super pampering! I love it~

Lastly b4 i go, may i bring ur attention to my stomach in the above picture...

It's bulging! It's so obvious! I cant believe such a strange ordeal is happening to me... I kept telling ppl that i've become fatter and no one believes. It's true y'all. The above pic says it all. Thanks to the constant junk-food munching in office. I need to exercise~

Have a great week ahead y'all! My week ahead is jam-packed with event.

allmyloveandmore.

exams over

2008-04-05T23:20:00.002+08:00

i literally vomitted everything i studied out on my exams paper and still didnt have enough time to finish writing it... finally it's over! omfg. i'm so tired now i just dont wanna move or do anything. And i think i can sleep for a full whole day, 24hours straight. When the exams was over, everyone asked me why my eyes were so red. It's the blooodshot eyes loh! With a snap of a finger, i can go straight into slumberland.

okay i just wanna complain and whineeee to someone about it.

Cross Cultural Management is so oveeeeeeeeeeer!

alright gdnight world~ i'll talk to you tmr.

*hugs.

2008-03-26T02:32:00.000+08:00

Sidenote, been busy proof reading essay, case studies, one after another. I think i need new glasses. The DKNY one looks good. It's like when i take off my glasses and rest my eyes, the world seems to be spinning a lil faster, like i'm on vertigo or something.

Bedtime has been screwed till 2am. I've try sleeping early and getting more rest, but was only able to fall asleep at fugging 2am. Godammit what's wrong man! Calling to my Mind, Body and Soul - can you pls not screw me up like that? I'm like the living zombie at work...

The video just cracks me up man.

Ken leeeee... tulibu dibu douchoo.

FUG IT'S FARNEY!!! Pure Entertainment, Bad Humour.

2008-03-16T22:04:00.002+08:00

allmyloveandmore, bighug.

bizzare weather

2008-03-13T23:13:00.004+08:00

what the hell is wrong with the weather lately? It's like been raining the whole week! I dont think i've seen Mr Sun out in the sky at all...

Where'd you go, i miss you soooo~

So i've been using the umbrella-ella-ella-eh-eh-eh for the whole damn week...

I've also been :

- Eating lunch in-house at our pantry

- Shivering in our ridiculous cold air-con office temperature

- Wearing layers of jackets

- Hiding in the toilet

- Walking up and down office telling everyone : "zomg damn coooold~"

- Staying at our coffeeshop at the basement and drink HOT kopi gao...

These are all ways to keep myself warm!

Do let me know if you have any better ideas to share ya...

Was darn tired today. Had customer meeting at Tuas, (fug that godammit faraway place...) then i had business lunch at Prego Swissotel with customers. C'mon, we all know we cant eat well when it's a business lunch, no matter how good the reviews of the restaurant is. We cant get too messy. Sadly, i'm very messy when i eat! And i really dont care. I'll go for Prego again though. Slightly costly, but i think the Italian food are worth every cent.

Rained rained and rained till i got home. Had dinner and seriously concussed in bed... Was telling buddy how bizzare the weather has been all week and it's so cold i have got to be hiding under my covers. Since i dont have a webcam, i decided to vividly describe to him how cold it was :

HAHA! Pretty lame ya... Well, i was reeeeally cold.

LOVES!

the new cam(whore)

2008-03-09T10:52:00.008+08:00

Say Goodbye to my Samsung Camera... *weep* ='(

You have served me well all these while, capturing every sec of my lifetime moments. Well, nothing last forever. It's sad but everything comes to an end...

Say Hello to my NEW CASIO EXLIM Camera!

It's so cool, i love it! I'm glad i got this camera from the IT show. I look like a dork pacing up and down, testing the camera over and over again, calling people and asking for their opinions and trying to convince myself that CASIO IS THE RIGHT CHOICE.

So this is it. You'll see more of Casio's photo results on my blog. Watch that space.

Had a 4-way conference call on Skype for project discussion last night. From like 9pm till 2am...I swear i must have fallen asleep for a short while during the discussion call, it's insane. Zzz.

Ogay gotta go! Essay Assignment is driving me up the wall.

Seeya soon. xoxo.

Updates!

2008-03-05T20:21:00.011+08:00

Been a while since i've last blogged! Hope everyone's looking good, feeling fine. It has been a supa busy but extremely fun week for me. So here goes! I'm gonna catch up on a couple of stuff here :

THE DIM SUM DOLLIES!

I swear the Dim Sum Dollies are the funniest production/stage performance i've ever seen... It's the best shiz y'all! I seriously had so much laughing till my stomach hurts. I'll definately catch the next Dim Sum Dollies!! Featuring Hossan Leong as their Chopstick and dancers as Loh Mai Guys.... YUMMY!

My 1st time watching a screenplay at Esplanade. Damn high-clrass loh, like super ah-tahs~

We bought Circle Seats, which i must say, had a pretty good view for a $40 tix.

They even gave us all a flag! Cos it was all about The History of Singapore.

The ending part supa drama can.... We all sang a couple of NDP must-sing songs and wave our flags in the air! It was almost like National Day.

Kudos to the Dollies! Well Done, excellent live performance. The play was so locally designed that it's humors really brings out the flavour of a typical Singaporean life living in this little island. I doubt the Ang Mohs understand some of the jokes. It was seriously awesome!! I had fun watching the show with Bel and twj. Cheeeers to the "some swee" (samsui) women! Whahaha!

Randomly, i thought this was really pretty...

Bought a box for the peeps at work.

Btw - Jellyhearts not only look pretty, it taste yummy too! They dont have a retail outlet. If you're interested to buy 'em, call the above number yea...

Random too. The famous crab place at Joo Chiat. I'm sure you guys know whereabout is this place. It's so famous you need to call them to make reservations FOR THE CRABS and not for a table. Crabs are freshly flew in daily via SIA CARGO. Call/come/queue early to avoid disapppointment, it's usually SOLD OUT at around 8pm or even earlier. Bare with the ladyboss lousy attitude. No service charge, No Service!

But it's all worth-it... The BEST Black Pepper Crabs. Ever!

I'm sorry, but they win hands down y'all...

It's making me hungry just looking at that plate of crabs! *drools*

Team Building Day. All of us were at Changi Village Hotel last Friday, 29th Feb - The Leap Year.

Ahahah! It looks like i have sparkle in my eyes... Waiting for our bus at Gateway Lobby which was half an hour late. Can you imagine... All of us waiting at the Lobby and everyone was like staring at us. I felt like i was going for a Secondary School Field Trip.

I SO LOVE THIS PIC.

It's prolly the most decent pic the 3 of us EVER took. I'm so gonna frame up this peekture!

Changi Village Hotel is so pretty! Check out the diamond-studded sign for the Ladies...

and Gents!

My Team.

C'mon Sing it baby~ "we are family, i got all my sisters with me!"

The classic "i-am-so-lost" pic.

It was a game lah. I was blindfolded, thrown out to look for a bloody lego with so many ppl shouting directions from behind..... (-_-")

Team 2

Lego Giraffe.

We ended with a day of fun and games. Heading out for a food trail~

Dinnnnneeeeer!

See! It's crab again. But of cos, it's not as good as the one at Joo Chiat... haha!

It's really big though! Check out the pincers seating side by side with the mantou.

Yet again... not everything big means it's better one loh.

It's even bigger than my face. Zzzz

Went to 2 more places for Peranakan and Thai food. The Thai food was great! It's a pity i was too tired to take any photos of the place. I'll be sure to take some back when i visit the place again. Day ended with me being sabo-ed to sing a song in the bus. *cover face with both hands* Supa malu i tell you.......

But it was a fun day for me! I had great fun bonding with my co-collegeaues, playing silly team-bonding games... It's so hard for all of us to bond when we're all busy with our everyday ~~crap~~ work that we dont have time we catch up and understand each other better. There's so much misunderstanding created in a stressful working environment that we all sometimes really need to take a day off work and just have fun. Simple as that...

It's a busy month for me! Having classes, project assigment and all. Will catch up with you guys soon! Meantime i'll be checking out the IT show tmr. So many things to buy!!

Love y'all. Big hug.

Flawless cocktail

2008-02-22T22:32:00.002+08:00

OMG you've gotta check this out...

*drumrolls.* Introducing the world's offically MOST expensive cocktail which was launched last year at a famous London nightclub called Movida. Lo and behold cos you're sipping on a US $71,001.50 glass of cocktail - Flawless.

Ingredients in the costly cocktail include a large measure of Louis XII cognac, half a bottle of Cristal Rose champagne, some brown sugar, angostura bitters and a few flakes of 24-carat edible gold leaf. But the real extravagance is an 11-carat white diamond ring - which can be found at the bottom of the glass...

I'm not making this up! This is real, go google it! Customers buying the exorbitant cocktail won’t go unnoticed. Two security guards will be on watch as the drink is prepared and watch over the client’s table until the last sip.

WTH is edible gold leaf anyway~

The 11-carat white diamond ring is so blinging at me y'all.

Gosh, i hope he/she be careful not to choke while sipping this cocktail... =S

As quoted from 21st February 2008, Thursday Straits Times :

"A motorcyclist in his mid-40s died after he was hit by a car along Havelock Road at about 9.40am on Tuesday. The car, travelling towards Zion Road, was making a right turn into a hotel when it hit the rider. who was travelling in the opposite direction. He had chest injuries and was bleeding from his nose and mouth when he was taken to Singapore General Hospital. He died about two hours later. Witnesses can call the police hotline on 1800-547-1818."

The car was a freaking taxi driver. I urged you to please contact the police if you witness, or you know anyone who witness the deadly accident. It is a man's life we're talking here.
