4 more days to go....
It's the time to countdown....
Sunday, April 24, 2005how come weekends always end earlier than weekdays??
i waited for 5 days for sat and sunday...
and it has to end so fast..... hmmm.....
saturday was interesting...
we visited my grandaunt at depot rd, and bought some chicken drumsticks ready for grilling at home!!
it took me 35mins to grill 9 baby drumsticks hahaha...
but the result was positive.
mum likes it and livingstone says 'yummy'.....
i think it taste like KFC, cos i made coleslaw too...haha....but mine was healthy kfc...
not fried....just grilled....
heh heh =)
finger licking good....wow....hahaha....like real...
i finally get to taste rangoon rd bak kut teh
have been hearing so much abt it, but hasnt got a chance to taste it.
i dun think it's my type though, cos the soup base was too pepperish for me...
they were expensive, one bowl of bak kut teh with 2 spare ribs cost $6!
and we notice that, all those that patronise the shops drove big cars...especially BMWs, Benz and Lexus...
high class bak kut teh??
marina square is half open, so we decided to take a look and see wat's in store...
most of the ready shops are restaurants and food court. giant was there...
the or-nee (yam paste dessert) in the food court was good!!
$2.80 for a small portion though..
actually wanted to try the peranakan food in katong today, but mum changed her mind cos she thinks they dun look appealing...
we ended up having 5-star chicken rice in katong...
do u noe they accept visa payment for $30 and above!?
haha,....another high class chicken rice stall? no wonder they are called 5-star ...hahahaha
yes....the time has come for me to countdown.... =)
5 more days...
i'll be visiting a place i wanna go ...yes....always wanna go....
la la la la la

Browse, Recall, Giggle
Monday, April 18, 2005that was wat my mum and i were doing for the past 1 hr...
hur hur hur...
she suddenly took out all the old fotos to rearrange.
"aiyoh, teochew and hokkien mix together, how to see??"
haha...this is wat she meant:
my father comes from a teochew family, and my mother comes from a hokkien family.
since young, we address my grandparents, "teochew-ma", "teochew-gong", "hokkien ma" and "hokkien-gong"...
she was trying to put all the fotos in place for easy viewing...
it was so interesting.
from the fotos, i recalled some of the old clothings my siblings and i had, the shoes, our old hairstyles (mine was like ma-jie), my sleepy eyes then, my parents ....hahaha....it was soooo amusing....
the relatives' weddings we attended, the old fashion clothes we wore....
hahaha...
i remember i had some kid's clothings i really love when i was young...
those were the days....
and there were many fotos of my late hokkien-ma....
days before my grandma passed away, my grandaunt caught her viewing some old fotos alone at home....she must have recalled alot of old tales too....too bad she's not here to share now...
anyway,...
i rx quite alot of news today...
1) a gf jus share her pregnant news with me...and im really sooooo happy for her... =)
2) a gf told me she's getting ROM soon....
3) a male fren's wife jus gave birth to a baby girl...
C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S to all of u!!!
looks like these are the common topics among my frens' now...
tieing the knot, bundle of joys...
somemore years later,
there would be topic of kids going to schools, hahaha....
life....
Not jus any other sunday
Sunday, April 17, 2005A very enriching and quality sunday spent today!
I had brunch with livingstone's family, had a cosy couple retail therapy with livingstone, had dinner with my mum after her sessions with her sisters and finally had a coffee&cake dialogue with livingstone. We closed the nite at 11pm. WELL-DONE!! =)
i think mum had a good sunday spent too, she done a few relatives visiting with her sister and she told my sister yesterday tat she dun have time for her today. hahahaha~
Have i been updating u that there's a new F.O.S store in singapore! yes, a big one.
located above taman warner POSB.
it was one store i always hope for,
...not the price tag though.
the price is the same as Malaysia's ... only the currency is different.
i.e it's not cheap at all.
visit ikea....hoping to see some new designs.
disappointed. it's the same old thing from wat i saw a few mths back.
saw kenny with his gf there....haha...long time no see.... =)
the nite was still young when we sent my mother back, so livingstone and i decided to have a coffee&cake dialogue at west coast McCafe...my fav outlet.
IMpreSSed. They changed their operating hours.
weekend: they are 24hrs available!!
looks like they realise they have a demand there.
The brownie was excellent tonite!!
Pig kidney noodle...anyone?

it is such a challenge to get her the nice and correct food...haha...
we ordered the dou-mia with mushroom, tom-yam prawn, mince-meat dou-fu, 2x kidney mee sua ... all for $27.20.... WORTH!

last nite's spinning class was terrrrrific...it was the strength class, and we were simulated to cycle uphill for as long as 10mins, non-stop.
then, there was the downhill and uphill combination....

Lousy day...
Monday, April 11, 2005today was lousy for me.
the mood was not right, the environment was not right, the timing was not right either....everything doesnt seem to get into place...
....or maybe it's just me and my mood.....
anyway...life still goes on.
i've to concentrate on making things better now....
ooops!! suddenly...i realise... forgot to visit the toilet for big business today! darn it!
if only things can be kept simple...
Sunday, April 10, 2005There are pple who think that taking care of families are a chore.
that spending time with them is a responsibility.
but i noe there are some that truly likes spending quality time with families, that comes from the bottom of their heart....
maybe u beg to differ, and will tell me something else....
i wonder how many of us count our blessings and look a around ourselves to say , "im so appreciative that i m blessed with a family wea i can share joy and sadness together..."
indeed we come to our parents by what i call fate. fate brings me and my family together, what happens after it, depends on us....this explains why i tell myself to piriotise sunday as my family day...
each time livingstone made the effort to spend his time with my family, i say "thank you for that dear"... that was my way of telling him that i appreciate his effort....
he say that to me when i did the same... this is our way of reminding each other not to take things for granted...it keeps things more simple and sweet...
but not all pple are fortunate in this sense...
at least, it was not a good nite for my sister's family and us tonite....
i jus hope things get better soon...
burp
Friday, April 08, 2005burrrrrrp...
had our dinner with mummy and livingstone tonite at 7th storey hotel...
the infamous charcoal steamboat and crab noodle...
burrrrrrp... (again)...
2nd round....we had dessert at redhill market....hur hur hur
i rush into the toilet immediately when i reach home....eat too full la.... =p
was bz formating and customising my laptop at work for the WHOLE DAY...
phew.....finally it is working now....jus like before.... =)
trojan clean up day
Thursday, April 07, 2005omigod, for a moment, i tot SBS stop 123 from coming into orchard alrd!
i waited for the bus for at least 20mins....
and i nearly dozed off at the bus stop!!!
had an awesome workout tonite, combat as usual was in its highest morale, so shiok to combat to the loud music and the screaming and shouting of the members...but after the 3hrs workout, we forgot to exchange the towel cards before we left the club....hmph...
my laptop at work is infected by trojan....damn it...
gonna format it tml....hopefully benny remembers to bring me his external harddisk so that i can backup my stuffs...
Quality time...
Wednesday, April 06, 2005i define quality time as a specially allocated time to spend with someone significant to ur life...
i usually stay home on wednesday nite,
To spend the nite with my mum having dinner, watching tv and massaging her leg.
tonite is special...
1) i had ryan boy still at home when i reach home (usually my sista picks him up like 6.30pm)... 2) and i had my mum informing me that my sista will be home to join us for dinner.
it made the whole nite extra warm...3 women and a toddler, enjoying a home cook dinner at a home table.
there were laughter from us, there were tears from ryan...haha
it was a short 'gathering', but...
I count my blessings tonite....
(if u still have siblings staying under 1 roof with u....cherish the dinner sessions together...)
=)
my magic egg....
Finally started growing my magic egg... there's a secret msg on the plant....be patient...be patient..... =)

Island Hopping
Monday, April 04, 2005Spent Sunday doing island hopping in.... Singapore....hur hur hur...
it was interesting..
we visited kusu island and st.john's island.
and omigod...there are really ang mors and japanese visiting these islands!!
there is an ang mor family i saw, a mother, a father, a daughter and a younger son, taking the ferry to st. john's and enjoying a rest-and-relax-picnic-under-the-sun...
heh heh...maybe they miss the not-so-crowded and slower city wea they come from....
i remember seeing ang mors sitting on the green during lunch time munching their sandwich under the scorching sun in london....
u get to see it on st. john's too...hur hur hur
actually the main objective for the trip was for livingstone to test his new canon camera. now im eager to see its performance......
HaPPy ApRiL FooLs' DaY
Friday, April 01, 2005it's a new mth, it's time for a new font, a new color for my blog..
met up with sean and bud tonite for dinner at sakae and dessert at TCC harbourfront.
sinful nite. no gym, yet i am eating feasting eating....
Sean is the only fren from RMIT that we remain close contacts with even after graduation.
Sometimes bud and i wonder, how on earth can we click so naturally with a weirdo like him!??
hahaha...
sean ~ a married man who toks to himself, wishy washy, undecisive, do things impulsively (and regrets later), most of the time harbour illogical thoughts and ideas but...HONEST, true and sincere ...
isn't these positive qualities wat we always look for in a fren?
i guess these qualities override all his weird behaviours ... haha
made a date with my sista tml to make muffins at her place. can i offer u a virtual awesom-chocolate mufffin and a rum:raisin muffin?
this shld give u the reason to smile, =)
