happy pay day cum aniversary!

it has been a long long time since we last had expensive meal.. my expensive context is 10% + 7%.. haha.. anyway, since it was pay day and our anniversary so we decide to treat ourselves to a GREAT meal!! it has been so so so long since i last had sakae..

dear dear different facial expressions.. can really tell when a man is satisfied with his meal

look at our yummy menu, i think that was the most dishes i have ever ordered in sakae!! i thought the bill will amount to $60+ but the bill came up to $39.90!! we even had to force the cheesey chicken down our throats because we ate too much!

some photos we have taken during the meal. after the meal, we even went orchard to do some shopping. i realised i become so cautious and careful on my spendings! i used to be very impulsive and get anything that my eyes set on.. but now, i have to think and think.. try on to make sure i can match with my current wardrobe before i get it.. so everyone who reads this post, do tell my mummy and daddy that i have finally started to understand the importance of HARD EARNED $$.. before i get too happy about it.. my 老毛病 came back! i actually want to change hp considering im saving saving!! some history for those who do not know me from the start when i own a hp.. hp is actually part of my hobby, i change it so often that i never used a hp for more than a year! not that i am rich, the most expensive hp was w800, i bought it at 600+ and had to forgo all lunches etc.. i started with ericsson t10, then panasonic g90, then motorola v3688, then samsung, and finally sony ericsson.. i cant remember how many phones i have changed!!haha.. anyway, wont get it also cause im saving for dear birthday fest, my birthday hairdo, my best friend wedding..

welcome OCTOBER!! my fav month of the year, childrens day, dear dear birthday and babelicious aka me birthday etc etc! oktober fest!! like how the germans celebrate it! hee..

p.s happy anniversary, better get going with my market research assignment, due date 3rd OCT!

my mid-autumn festival weekend!!

happy mid-autumn festival!! this is the 1st time i enjoyed so much as an adult from this festive.. last year, dear dear and me had a mooncake at holland village eski bar.. but this year, it is something different.. we had plan a mini-celebration with sista and ali family.. but ali family cant make it..

on friday night, we met up at east coast park to enjoy the cool sea breeze, to play with the lanterns and sparkles and enjoy mooncake.. it was so windy that day.. we had trouble lighting up the lanterns.. finally, dear dear managed to light up one and they played with the sparkles..

after an hour, we are still unable to light up the 1st lantern..

as usual, im the scardy cat.. i remembered i played sparkles when i was a child but i wonder why now that im all grown up i dont dare to play with it.. as you can see in the pictures, sista is so brave! she can take so many sparkles with one hand!! i only managed to hold the sparkles twice.. hee.. i could feel the heat! my hand is burning!!

sparkling night..

they were so pro! i think i am more comfortable in taking
pictures than playing with the sparkles..

sista brought along 2 very cute and very small battery operated lanterns!
by the way, that was the only lantern that was light up

thanks dear dear for accompanying us for this mini-celebration.. though the wind was so strong that you are unable to light up the lanterns.. but hope you had fun! thanks sista for coming despite the fact that you are the only one joining us and you had a cruise to catch next morning.. hope you did had enjoyed yourself.. i was glad that we were able to catch up and had fun at the same time..

on saturday, we went to the indoor stadium for mid-autumn evangelistic service by pastor mark.. it was great!! they sang a few hokkien songs and two that i enjoyed the most was, "ji ba ban" and "ai pia jia eh yia".. i always love "ji ba ban" eversince i heard willy sang in taiwan.. the lyrics is so funny.. it goes like this, if only i had a million dollars, i would fly to haiwaii for a sun-tan and to japan to eat sushi, to italy to eat spaghetti..

i was so touched by his sermon.. spoke about the worries of a man and woman.. and only Jesus is the solution.. he talked about his ah gong.. i will get the dvd when it is out.. very good!

saw alfred kor's mum also because they brought her along to the service.. she commented that me and b sis look very alike! it must be the dim lights that hides all my flaws that she thinks we look alike.. this is the 1st time someone say we looked alike! hee..

after the service, we sat at the waterfront to enjoy the complimentary mooncakes before heading to amk to meet dear dear friends for dinner..

we went to a coffeeshop where there is a botak jones stall.. according to his friends, their portions is quite big so we ordered a chicken sausage and a cajun chicken.. it was quite good.. one of his friend ordered a botak jones burger.. it seems quite different.. so the next time i go, i will order that!

ali family also joined us because they wanted to pass us something and since they havent had dinner, dear suggested them to join us.. ali ma sewed our names onto a towel.. so sweet!!

see the generous serving of the onions and fries.. but i dont eat onions!!

so sweet of ali ma..

we promised dear's brother on thursday to bring him to bishan park to play with lanterns on sunday.. so here we are.. see, how his brother and him enjoyed it.. his mum joined us also..

finally, thats the end of our weekend.. had fun though it was tiring.. but tomorrow is japan's holiday which means i do not have to work.. that is why i can stay up so late to blog.. hee.. but tomorrow i have to start on my market research tma 2.. mug again..

i love this picture best!

yummy moonies!!

strawberry moonies!!

thursday morning, kendy brought her self-made strawberry mooncakes to office.. she always make delicious snacks for us.. her 2 sons and hubby is so blessed!! it was so delicious!! everyone was telling her how "oo-ii-shi" it was.. because they were all japanese.. hee..

i got all excited and wanted to learn make the moonies also.. so we were planning to do it on friday during lunchtime.. when we were all happy and all.. her son's principal called to say her son may have chicken pox! how sad! this means she has to take leave to take care of her child.. = we cannot make moonies on friday! :(

anyway, looking forward to the mid-autumn celebration with dear dear and civic princess later!

"la pia"!!

told my dad i wanted to post on my bloggie and he helped me carry the box so that i can take nice shots of it..though he wasnt spontaneous enough to take a photo with the la pia he specifically mentioned that this is a nice flower cut .. he cut it! haha

thanks to papa, he went to buy the teochew mooncake today, gave to ah gong, my aunt and our family.. by going all the way to geylang to get it, he made all of us happy..

this special mooncake, is my favourite!! and i get to eat it once a year during the mid-autumn festival.. many of my teochew friends have not heard of this so decide to post it on my bloggie.. hee.. fortunately i get to eat it only once a year, because why this is called a "la pia" is because is is made from pork fats = lard!!! it has a flaky crust and is filled with bean paste.. according to my grandma, the lard makes the crust flaky and crispy.. the bean paste is also cooked in lard.. resulting in the great taste! so when you eat the "la pia" it is very very oily = more calories!! told dad because he always buy good food back for us, resulting in my size now.. he rubbed it in by saying: 胖有胖的美哦！！ NO! I dont want that!!

im finally done with my assisgnment and has submitted today!! i also gotten my results back for my tma 1 for market research!! very happy and satisfied with the results.. more than 76.. hee..

by the way, i am watching devil beside you again! i forgot the ending.. and since i have completed why why love.. might as well!! haha.. now i am starting to re-appreciate 暧昧 and 理想情人。。 i prefer mike's style in why why love and prefer rainie outlook in devil beside you because her hairdo in why why love just looks kinda dumb..

JJVC movie night: Evan Almightly

thanks to sista invitation, i get to watch evan almightly on friday night! it was a bad day for me to start on friday morning.. with assignments 20% done and another 80% to complete and with the auntie coming and all.. worst! i realised i did not stock up my T*** and damn alexandra technopark do not sell!!! arghz!!

anyway, i rushed down to vivo so that i can be on time.. saw my ex-colleagues, max, wendy, jem jem, still the same! i saw him throwing pop corn at max!! guys, grow up! fun is not defined like this..hz, rach, my country manager js n his wife, jack - my dear optom whom i always go bug him whenever consumers complain!.. all still the same no change.. except for max, i think he lost some weight! as always, treat me like a little girl, the 1st question he asked was, how r you with your boy? boy? hmm.. im hitting my mid-xxx soon! anyway, prefer to stay this way.. always the little girl in everyone hearts.. (:

the show was really funny. though there wasnt much bibical quotes but i enjoyed it thoroughly.. i was mindful not to laugh too loud during the show in case i get recognise and get a golden award for being the one with the loudest laughter..

if you have time to spare, do watch the show and be prepared for a good laugh! and i have to emphasize, im a simple girl to please.. so for me its very hilarous and i laughed non-stop!

told chantel to update her multiply!! ever since she changed job, she haven been updating as frequent as she used to.. da- tah!! she has updated her multiply on the movie before i have blogged about it! she is FAST!! haha


ARK = ACTS OF RAMDOM KINDNESS "People changing the world, one act at a time"

God: Let me ask you something. If someone prays for patience, you think God gives them patience? Or does he give them the opportunity to be patient?
If he prayed for courage, does God give him courage, or does he give him opportunities to be courageous?
If someone prayed for the family to be closer, do you think God zaps them with warm fuzzy feelings, or does he give them opportunities to love each other?

God: How do we change the world?


Evan Baxter: One single act of random kindness at a time.

happy birthday, princess jas..

friday night, went to phin's steakhouse to celebrate princess jas birthday.. after that, went to phuture with the girls.. thanks dear dear for accompanying me there.. it was my worst experience in a club.. we were surrounded by guys all the time.. there wasnt a single girl at the dancefloor except for us.. i felt kinda intimidated.. really scared.. my legs were breaking.. people were stepping on my toes all the time.. my big toe was bruised! they were pushing and pushing.. i remember the last time we went there it wasnt like that.. we stayed till about 2am and we left.. we had a hard time squeezing ourselves out of the dancefloor.. but well, the great thing now is that they cant smoke in clubs now and the air is fresher and the view is clearer! (:

since last weekend, have been mugging and mugging.. though i dislike the stress and all.. but when we mug, we spend less $$ because we stay home all the time and we wake up early on sunday morning to have mac breakfast.. i have been having hotcakes consecutively for the past weekends that i decide to have big breakfast this time.. i dipped the hot, soft bread into my maple syrup!! delicious!! yum yum!! the scrambled eggs is so yummy until i felt egg shells in it.. i felt like changing it.. regretted not changing it.. the next time i feel he egg shell, i shall change it!!!

have been brainstorming on my anti-drug abuse pr campaign.. took leave today but have been blogging. hee.. all rightey, i shall go mug and stop all distractions!!

tomorrow going to watch evan almightly with sista! so looking forward!! sista, im glad that you matured after the past 1 month! im happy to see you in all smiles, real smiles and not to hide your sadness and disappointments.. love u!!

p.s have found recipes for american cheesecake and chocolate fondant, cant wait to try on the recipes!!

steamboat dinner

gg for steamboat dinner tonight.. my favourite! i can have it weekly but dear doesnt really like.. but my favourite is the one at suntec.. pricey yet the ingredients are better than others.. they have yummy desserts, fruits, chicken rice, rojak, quiche, cakes, puffs and all other normal steamboat ingredients.. i love their mini chicken franks best!! sista and i just love the ti kua.. v.nice!! dear has a thing for sweet stuff.. he simply love the pastries! *yummy*

anyway, beside the point.. im quite scared.. nervous? not really sure.. have been waiting how it would be after almost half a year no contact with them.. either no contact or low contact which does not usually happen between us.. sighz..

Lord, give me the courage!

p.s: i have to do a visual presentation, ppt slides and a report to be submitted to the student office.. hey, come on.. i am doing a degree program not some polytechnic stuff.. why do we have to do powerpoint slides? does the school teaches us how to do a business review? no! then, why the powepoint slides! i simply do not comprehend! see the long steps we have to take to obtain the report.. b sis, your mater program need to do this kinda bo liao stuff meh?? or alfred kor phd program?

1) research, research and research to substantiate all our sentences!!!
2) then footnotes, sidenotes.. referencing.. got specific referencing styles!!!
3) then have to complete the report
4) then have to do powerpoint slides
5) then have to prepare speech
6) then have to record a visual presentation to be submitted
7) then have to save the report, the powerpoint slides and visual presentation into a cd
8) then have to hand-deliver to school to reach the students admin office!

i do not mind doing the report.. actually i have gone through it. it is quite interesting! it is advertising and promotions on the topic on public relations.. to do a proper pr campaign for anti-drugs.. sounds fun right.. hmm.. right now have to think of objectives and my 2 target audience that i want to reach.. hmm...

pps. besides submitting to the students office.. we also have to submit online so that the system can check for plagiarism!

all right after all the fun, hopefully, i have to be in mugging mode for the next 2 weekends..

Ratatouille..

still in all the mugging mood when i asked dear if he wants to watch the rat show.. he was initially skeptical about it because he never watch animation or rather children shows which is how he interprets.. haha. but i love them!! from young, i watched, little mermaid 3 times! how i wish i can b princess ariel.. beauty and the beast, toy soldier, toy story, antz, a bug's life, monster inc, chicken run, robots, the incredibles, finding nemo, happy feet and now ratatouille!! (well, i didnt catch the cars show..)

i love it! i simply love it! every show has a story to it.. an inspiring one.. it never fails to make me enjoy the movie! my intial skeptical dear also liked it.. he told me it was a great show after! hee..

im impressed, truly because they even named the positions of the chef.. they even had the french accent! I learnt the different positions, executive chef, sous chef (2nd in the kitchen when the executive chef is not around), expeditier, chef de partie, sauté chef..

when remy, the rat smelt the cheese, it also named the cheese! i forgot the names because there are so many different cheeses france.. i love comté, emmantal and parmesan.. i think i prefer the hard ones than the soft ones.. brie, bleu, camembert, the rest not sure le.. im not so power with all the cheesey names..

its a great show! aunts and uncles, do bring my cute cousins to watch it! Im sure crystal, jeriel will like it!!
