Maroon 5 Concert!

YES! I’m going to watch Maroon 5 Live in Singapore concert on the 25th April!! This will keep me feeling excited for the next 1.5 weeks! Really can’t wait. Can’t wait! I’m going to watch the concert with the bf. It’s one of the rare ocassion he would say ok. Anyways, we got the cheapest tickets because we are saving for the Taipei trip and I don’t mind as long as I’m there!

*STILL FEELING EXCITED*

Don’t know if we will be able to take any photos. But anyways, I’m going to bring my camera. Now now, the thing is, I don’t have a zoom lens. So even if I brought my camera along (lens is just 17-50mm), I don’t even know I’ll be able to take anything at all!

Then it was moowee night with the bf last night. Went to this Japanese restaurant at Illuma. The food quite nice, and there isn’t much people so you won’t feel the crowd. πŸ™‚ After that we went to watch “HOP” the Easter Bunny moowee. I watched it on last Sunday with Suzy but I watched again because I missed the front part! Was too into our lunch last Sunday. Hahaha.

The hopping E.B (shown on the picture here) is really adorable. He’s really good at playing drums. And this reminds me of the time where I’m totally in love with drummers. LOL! And I think I still do loh. πŸ˜€ They are so cool and the way they hit the drums. Unable to describe it totally. And the chick named Phil is totally cute when he shake his butt and dance!

Then it was time to go home and rest while the bf went out jogging. Finally, he started jogging. πŸ™‚ Totally encourage him to adopt a more healthy lifestyle.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

Finally! The long-awaited Harry Potter movie for the last book, the Deathly Hollows. I have booked the tickets for at least more than a week and I finally catch it on the big screen yesterday! Was feeling excited and looking forward to the movie (since it’s been a while since I watch a movie in the cinema).

One word: AWESOME!

It’s almost like the book! When I was watching movie, I even have the illusion that I have watch it before it was shown on the screen! Maybe that was because I read all the 7 books. I can vaguely remember the storylines in book 7. There are funny moments, where almost everyone took the polyjuice potion and turn into Harry Potter. Can you just imagine ‘Potter’ was once a woman? Funny. Was laughing quite loudly in the cinema. πŸ˜› Can’t control myself. Poor Dobby, the house elf (who was freed by Harry Potter in book 6) died. He’s so adorable, how can one bear such adorable thing to die. But, the story must go on, and Dobby must die.

You know what I did before watching this Deathly Hollows movie? I watched the rest of the Harry Potter movies from book 1 (Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s stone) to book 6 (HarryPotter and the Half Blood Prince)! Crazy isn’t it? I’m a great Potter fan! But, I don’t fancy Twilight. I read about news people are comparing Harry Potter to Twilight, I mean, THEY ARE TOTALLY DIFFERENT you noobs! I would prefer to watch magic action packed movie than vampire love stories (Psst: I love vampire movies, just.. no interest in Twilight. I think that guy’s face is too pale? I scare he might just faint. I like to watch Buffy the vampire slayer! That’s one hell good show that you must watch. Slayers. Does it excites you? LOL~).

Anyways, back to Potter movie. When I was watching the movie and I recalled Dumbledore has died, it saddens me. Do I sound emo here? Why? Because he’s the oldest, and cleverest among all witches and wizards. Think about it, it’s another scarifice to Potter’s success! And Hermione is really getting prettier! And this time, she cut her hair short. Real short. And, I think Ron, has got a BIG mouth. Hahaha, pardon me for saying this. But, you can’t deny it’s true! Professor Snape, he’s the real spy. What’s Andy Lau and Tony Leung? Not gonna reveal more, otherwise it will just spoil the part 2 movie (which is showing in July 2011!!)!

Deathly Hollows are the 3 items:

1) Elder wand (which is in Dumbledore’s possession but since he died, Voldemort took it, from his grave that is),

2) Invisible cloak (owned by Harry Potter) and

3) Resurrection stone which can make the dead alive again (who owns it?).

For those who doesn’t read Harry Potter story (or even catch it’s previous movies), I’m not surprise if you don’t find it nice.

*******************

My dear colleagues celebrated my birthday in advance in the office with a stitch cake! That’s so sweet and nice of them! =] Thank you very much!

After work, I head down to P.S to meet Celest and Uncle Jeremy and his gf for dinner first before the movie at 21:45hrs.Β  So we went to TCC for our dinner (because there is NO queue and I got the discount card)


I missed the potato wedges with melted cheese dip. It reminds me of the TCC days where we always buy this and share among ourselves, and sometimes we even ‘force’ Tim to buy and ‘reward’ us for our good effort! LOL~ Those were the days. Happy times. And it also reminds me of a very good gf, whom we no longer talk. I remembered bumping into her once at Tiong Baruh, we merely exchanged 3 or 4 sentences before going our own ways. That’s so sad. Even when I saw her news feed in FB, I wondered to myself “what happened?”. For this, I don’t think I will ever know. 😦

Amy and I had the same dish! And it’s really spicy (although the menu puts 3 chilli for the spiciness.)! And I had my lovely mango tea freeze. Everything is so nice.

Celest and Uncle Jeremy had the same dish! πŸ˜€ Happily chatting in TCC. Was opening my present until I forgot to intro Celest to Uncle Jeremy. LOL.

TADA! My big head scrump. Which I re-named it as big head Chou (ugly in Chinese). They are the Chou Chou’s family! Thus, all name must have a Chou.

And I got a Stitch pencil. How sweet. Now I love Celest deep deep liao! And when the bf saw it, he say “jia lat, getting more and more liao”. LOL~ That’s the way uh huh uh huh~ I like it uh huh uh huh~ Woohooo!~

It’s Josephine’s birthday today!

Hereby wishing her a

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! And may all your dreams come true, and go for more holidays and explore more places! Cheers!

Over the weekends

Saturday, met up with Emily and Sue for dinner. It’s been a long time since I last met them up. I haven’t seen Emily for 3 years and Sue for 2 years. That’s pretty long huh? So we head down to where Sue’s currently working.. and I think we ordered quite a bit of food because Sue has got $75 voucher from her work place. So, dinner was free! Thanks Sue~! It’s been a long time since I sat down with the girls and talk, chatting about the past. Now Emily even owns a car, with LONG hair~! Things changed. But, they say I didn’t change a bit. For example, I need to get fat or something.

Although it was a fairly short meet up because of the traffic jam that made me waited for more than an hour, it’s still worth meeting up with the rest. Love catching up with the ladies, and I’m sure the next time round when we meet up, it will be a longer meet up. =]

 

Went shopping on Sunday with Dearest, because I wanted to get a dress and heels for my company D&D. Haven’t saw anything that I like for the little dress I want to wear for my D&D! 😦 Shall go and shop for it on Wednesday! Hopefully I can get it on Wed. Otherwise I have to source for one dress on the weekends!! Gosh, time is really running out!

And this is my heels. Glitz andΒ Glamor. But… no blings blings! I wanna look chio chio (pretty) that very day!

I was thinking if I wanna buy some crystal and stick it the ribbons on the heels. Should I? Though decision.

I have been watching Harry Potter DVDs these days. Cool isn’t it? I even dream about it when I was sleeping. LOL. And I really can’t wait to watch Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows on Β Friday!

Updates Updates UPdates!

I think it’s been a long time since I update my blog seriously.

Meet up with Celest for dinner before our ‘last’ paper for the term. Dinner was good. Went to Sakae Sushi for dinner, and I must say.. it’s a waste of money to go there! Perhaps, I have tried better Japanese food, that’s why I think it’s not nice anymore! Whatever it is, the last paper (Cross Cultural Management), is a flop, and I foresee myself retaking the paper. No faith in this paper. And, I keep telling myself I must work hard for the rest of the term. After this last paper, it’s exactly a year to the end of the course! Shall do my best. Even if I can’t get super good grades like Dearest, I must at least pass all modules and get the certificate! πŸ™‚

 

Went to school on Monday to collect Β my Management Research Project (MRP) proposal that I did in the previous term. Met up with Celest to get the textbooks for the new term. And it is Pre Course Assignment (PCA) again! This term is a little tough, and more discipline is need. Only need to go for class for a module, Managing Change, and the rest is just doing ASSIGNMENTS. Very well. Dinner at Domino, not too bad. Just that I shouldn’t order the salmon and mushroom pasta because it’s CREAMY, but.. I love to love mushrooms. Chou Chou have a fair share of the pasta too! Hahaha.

 

This a season to be jolly, la la la la~ Christmas is coming. So happy! Can’t wait for Christmas to come. And guess what?

THEIR baby was born on the 4th November (if I remembered clearly). And I’m not mentioning the names here, because I don’t want to. Anyways, THEY are inviting US to their baby shower on the 25th December. Initially, I thought it would be nice for us to go together, on a second thought.. I think it would be better for Dearest to go by himself; with his friends. I keep having those bad thoughts in my mind, and things that happened 2 months ago, are still printed in the back of my mind. Just couldn’t get it out of my mind. Very bad I know. What else can I do? I don’t think I can communicate with them, at all. I think it’s weird not seeing them for more than 3 months and I’m going to attend their baby shower. I would love to go, but if things in the past did not happen. I think I have the right to guard myself from such people. Right? I love to play with babies. But, how often do I have a chance to play with their babies? I think they hates me. So, we have arrange in a way, Dearest will go for the baby shower, and I will go out with my friend. Enough of this. I shall not dread on this.

Anyways, me and Celest went to Ion and bought her guest book for her 21st birthday! Although it’s expensive, I think it’s all worth it! I’m thrilled about this up coming birthday! Gina and I will be helping out. =]

 

I was bored one day, so I decorated Chou Chou. =]

 

>

Met up with Gina yesterday! Was supposed to go for some shopping trip, but by the time we met, have our dinner and walk around.. the shops are almost closed. Oh well.. but we had a fun time talking! Β And thanks to Gina for getting me this Labbit Chou as my birthday present. So nice of her. =]

We went to Siam Kitchen to have our dinner. And honestly, I still prefer ThaiExpress. πŸ™‚ After that we went to take a walk in Bugis and then head back home. I know we are going for shopping soon. =]

 

Happy girl I am, I got myself a laptop table so I can use my laptop on the bed. And using it on the bed is definitely better than using the laptop on the desk. πŸ˜›

A little pricey I must say. It cost me $62.90! But, it’s really worth the price. It has got a fan for the laptop, 4 USB ports on the side. LED light during the night time and some storage place. Β And the mouse pad for the mouse, is really good! Not gonna regret buying this at all! Am I not a happy girl!

What makes me happy is, I have a total of 6 Harry Potter movies to watch before next watching the 7th book next week in Cinema. And I am just done with Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone! Time to go to bed after shower. The doctor says my eyes are little swollen and a little dry. Took the medicine that he gave me, it’s working well! πŸ™‚

Kinda sad, because I have to stop doing my BS for awhile. But be sure, I will be right back! πŸ˜€

Random post

I just wanna update, but it will take a while for me to update because I have so many things to update.

Last Friday, me, uncle Jeremy and auntie Amy went to catch Jay Chou’s The Era concert 2010. It’s really good, with all the effects and all. Must have put in so much effort on this. To celebrate his 10th year for his entire singing career, and of course more to come. And of course I will delicate one of the post just to update on the concert (posting of pictures and videos), but that will not be today.
Chou Chou enjoyed herself too! And it’s really crowded with lots of people!


The queue for the merchandise was crazy. Nevertheless, I got my Jay Chou’s pink cap (pre-order), sports towel and the pink bag ( which Dearest calls it a grocery bag), which Dearest helped me to purchase after the concert.

Saturday, I had my 2nd paper for the term and it’s a start for the next term. Human Resource Management paper seems easier. But I’m not pinning high hopes on getting high grades for my papers. After the exams, I went to meet up with my lovely sec sch mates. I love to go out with this crazy people, drink and crap the whole night. After that we went to Mustafa because Jo needs to get some things there. I went home earlier because I need to get my laundry done before I sleep.

Last Sunday, our parents finally met up. Which is a good start because if the parents are having different views, it would have been obvious from the first meeting. Lucky, everything went smoothly. And the dinner itself costed $230. Wow. But it’s worth while. Alyssa is really cute, she kept following Dearest‘s father around from outside the bedroom to the kitchen. I think she likes him, because she even show off her nice little dress to him. Hahaha. Such a cutesy little girl, a naughty one too. It’s really fun to watch her playing slide in the playground. Ah, childhood. And also, we met up with our wedding coordinator. I would need some help from my friends, ANYONE??

Tuesday, Jian Hui came back from Taiwan!! And he got me a new STITCH! Yea, it’s adding to my stitch collection. And this new stitch is holding on to a chou chou, but that chou chou is really damn chou (ugly) lah.

But it’s cute isn’t it? Now Chou Chou has got a new friend! Hahaha.

Last night, Metro was having 20% store wide sale! So me, Darling and Dearest went there to take a look. So I ended up with Ettusai’s moisturiser (which I think it’s really good to use this as a mask when my face is a little dry), puff (which cost $11, so freaking expensive!!), and Dior’s loose powder. I super like the Dior’s loose powder because after applying it, my face doesn’t feels oily at all (even after a long day outside!). Love it to bits, but it’s expensive ($73, but.. it’s DIOR leh.) lah. Dearest say I have been spending a lot this month, I promise I will control my spending from next months onwards. After getting so much supply for my skin care, I think it’s time to stop buying for awhile. Hahaha.

It’s raining so heavily in the morning. Lucky for me, I reached the office before it starts raining.

Today it’s just me and Chou Chou at the reception because my partner is on leave today.

I think I am falling sick soon. Throat itchiness and itch nose is a sign of sore throat and flu. I quicky pop strepsils before it gets worsen.

Rain rain go away, come again another day
Little children want to play

Oh yes, I’m going to watch the Sorcerer’s Apprentice with my Happy Family tonight. Timing: 00:15
Venue: The Grand Cathay
And we shall all come to work in a sleepy mode tomorrow.

Let’s pray that there will be no flood today. *keeping my fingers crossed* I think, it’s inevitable.

Government should slam SMRT with heavier fines for their incompetance these days. Train break down at Tanah Merah because the metal bar hits on the track that cause the train to stop functioning. Lag time for so long causing us to be late for work. The crowded trains also prevented us from entering the train. PLEASE don’t advise us to leave our house EARLIER, because we cannot predict when will the train break down or many trains we have to miss in order to get into the next one.

I know the CEO of SMRT doesn’t take train to work, but government increase COE to encourage US to take public transport, as a public transport provider, shouldn’t you do some thing to increase your productivity? First, you don’t notice the graffitis on your train, now you say we as commuters chose not to enter the train during the peak hours. And all these are bullshits. Picture speaks louder than words. You don’t know our agony until you try to take train from the far end of east and west. You can try for a month, see you can tahan or not. B.H.

Economics

Oh man, I think I am gonna fail my Economics!! Was trying so hard to study last week, but apparently nothing goes in. Damn. No point looking back now. Nothing goes into my brain these day.

Went to watch Despicable Me with my HAPPY FAMILY without Jian Hui, Huai Ren and Guan Kun.. So I supposed it’s HALF of my HAPPY FAMILY? Hehehe. Whatever it is, Despicable Me is really hilarious!

This movie is about a villian, who wants to steal everything! There was a villian competitor who steals the pyramid! So this villian, Guru, decided to steal something BIG. And that is the MOON! So it’s just so incredible. Hahaha. I like the little girl too. I just kept laughing thoughout the whole movie. And it’s touching towards the end of the movie. And the 3D effect is damn good. I love Cathay! Because they are really thoughtful. They have CHILDRED 3D SPECS loh! Cool isn’t it. It looks great on Valerie (Uncle Jeremy‘s youngest daughter). And the specs doesn’t fall off easily. I had a great time watching the movie.

Besides the little girls, I like this yellow thingy.. which I don’t know what its called. They are SOOOOO cute! I wish I could buy a toy for this. =] Maybe I shall go and hint the bf. lol.


After the movie, I head down to iOn to meet the girls to celebrate Jesslin‘s belated birthday. I don’t know what’s wrong with me, but I actually thought Darling is going Phuket on the 22nd. SO BLUR! After dinner, we went to TCC to chill for a little bit before heading home.

Another exam coming up this Saturday, and gosh, I haven’t start studying for that. I must have some discipline in order to pass. I think I’m not expecting to pass with flying colors, but I do not want to retake EXAMS. You know just how scary it is to even think about it. There is something to keep me excited, and that is……

JAY CHOU’S CONCERT THIS FRIDAY!!! WOOOOHOOOOO!

But, exam on SATURDAY!! BOOOOOOHOOOOOO!!!

Alright… I think I need to stay FOCUS.

I MMS this to Dearest this morning. =] Something to perk up the boring Monday blues! Loves.

Labour Day Weekends

It’s been a few days since I last blogged, and I told myself… I will try to blog as often as I could. BUT, I am so caught up with things. First, I need to do my pre-assignment for my Human Resource Management (HRM) which is due on the 10th May. And I got about 7 days to do now! After which I need to do my Economics pre-assignment which is due on the 24th May. Ah, nevermind about the assignments! I am sure I will be able to complete everything with God’s help. =]

Anyways, I had quite an enjoyable weekend last week! With my friends and my Dearest.


Last Friday, I finally meet up with TY, after so long. Maybe for more than half a year? We went for a movie marathon, despite our tiredness, Iron Man 2 and Ip Man 2! The most looked forward movie of the month! We had a fast dinner at Secret Recipe (P.S), and I am telling you, I AM NOT GOING BACK FOR ANY MEALS. The service was really bad. I put up my hand for order, and the indian guy told me he will get back to me (sorry if I have sounded a little racist here). After waiting for 10 minutes, noone came, so I thought we have to order at the counter. Since my order is kinda complicated (not wanting the vegs and whats not), I offered to order the food. And so, the malay server told me to go back to my seat and they will get back to me in a short while. Feeling frustrated and rushing for time, I told her that SOMEONE told me that he’ll get back to me and he didn’t, that’s the reason WHY I WENT TO THE COUNTER! Ok, so she came to me in a minute’s time. The food there is really horrible. No taste. I had the Vietnamese Beef Noodle (and I have the liking for the beef noodle, because that’s the best I had so far), it tasted like…. DARK SOYA SAUCE + OIL. I am like “WOW”, and it’s not cheap at all.

Nevermind about the food, we rushed for the movie because we were about 20 minutes late (the movie starts at 2145hrs). Lucky for me, we didnt miss a lot of the show, in fact, just a few minutes of the show. Please remember to stay till the end of the credit!! Because there is a short footage of Iron Man 3, maybe? LOL. I would still prefer Iron Man 1, because Iron Man 2 seems a little too… dry. And once the show finishes, it’s time for some toilet and smoking break before we head for the 2nd movie, Ip Man 2. We watched Ip Man 2 with Shun Jie and Jian Hui. And Ip Man 2 is still as good as Ip Man 1. But it’s both movies are recommended!!

On Saturday, I went for my driving practical, finally. And I am so glad and happy. Glad because I took private lessons, happy because I can drive again! The driving lesson went smoothly, and perhaps I was too nervous, I was holding on the stirling wheel very tightly. I guess I need to find ways to relax myself. πŸ™‚ After that, we went to ECP’s lagoon for dinner. And it was a very sumptuous dinner!

On Sunday, we went for our church service. And last week, they celebrated Mother’s Day. I am wishing all mothers out there a VERY HAPPY MoTHER’s DAY! Without our mommy, we won’t be here standing. So one should be grateful to our mother’s love and not forgetting the love of our great God!

Side track a little with Cosmetic testing:

Anyways, I tried out the Mabeline’s B.B cream! I was wondering to myself, how can I get the perfect make up without looking so dull and boring. At least have some radiance on my face, and make my complexion a little bit more chio. I bought it out of curiousity because everywhere I went, there is this person promoting about B.B cream and I was wondering what this B.B cream can do. I am not really convinced of what the person says until I tried it myself. And it really does wonder! It’s a pity that this is just a small tude. And it cost about $17.90.

Notice any differnces? The top is without B.B cream and and bottom is with B.B cream. B.B cream actually gives a better coverage on your face. It does a little conceal too! So it can really cover a little bit of my dark eye rings and the redness caused by the pimples. And to complete it, I applied eyes and face concealer to conceal the pimples totally. After that, put on your liquid foundation, and set it with loose powder for more lasting effect. Then you can put on your eye make up and whatsoever. But, if you don’t want to put on heavy make up or personally perfers to have a light make up, you can just put on the B.B cream (after your pimple cream and moisturizer), set it with some loose powder and you are ready to go!

I am saying so beause, you can really notice the difference in my make up! The B.B cream actually gives ‘radiance’ your skin, so your make up doesn’t look dull. See the picture! So much difference! (Damn, I think I looked FAT on the picture) I super recommed B.B.cream if you wanna have radiance on your face and better coverage. Try Etude House or Mabelline (only the one you see in the picture above!)! Etude House have so much choices of B.B Cream. I am sure you can search for a perfect one there!

Back to where I stopped. After church service, we went to have dinner at Old Town. And the serving is really small, but the food is considered nice.


Some arty farty shots during the dinner time. LOL. After the dinner, we took circle line and headed back home. I was thinking to myself. From one stop to another took about 2 minutes, which means it took us about 6 minutes from Promenade to Mountbatten MRT station, which is 3 stops away. I always thought that once the circle line opens, then the W-E MRT line will not be as crowded. But, I WAS WRONG! It’s still as crowded as before. Simply because.. the circle line is from the middle central (Paya Lebar) to north side (Bishan), and the west is till Buona Vista. Nothing at Pasir Ris or Jurong. So irritating right? And sometimes, I almost stick my face onto the door, or have to smell the B.O of certain someone. Yucks. Unlike Dearest, he can just can C.L from Mountbattem and alight a few stops later to Bras Basah. So convenient for him.

I am still find it weird that we have to wait for about 5 minutes before the next train arrival during peak hours. When the previous trains are already so PACKED. Can’t SMRT do something about it? They just keep building more train stations, and they are not providing more trains for the peak hours, so what’s the point of having so much stations and NO MUCH TRAINS??

And, I am so happy and glad to have such a caring future mother in law. LOL. When the volcano erupted and the weather forecast say the cloud will spread as the winds blow, thus we will see these ‘poisonous’ clouds and it rains when it’s still so bright and sunny, she told Dearest to tell me not to get myself caught in such rain. And then, she asked Dearest if we wanna have dinner at home because it’s not good that we kept having dinner outside. Ahhhh. What more can I ask for? πŸ˜‰


Did mention about going to Jay Chou’s concert?? I’m going on the 23rd July!! A day before my exam. SO……. I AM GOING TO TAKE LEAVE, MUG AT HOME.. And head for his concert!! πŸ˜€ Happy like a bird! I am going with Uncle Jeremy and the ‘gf’, and REmi & CO~!
