Gathering

Yesterday met Gaelim at Takashimaya's coffeebean for drinks and chat. He's quite nice to talk to. Went for piano lesson and walked down to HMV Village to meet up with Peishi and Jolene. The rest couldn't make it in the end. Jo's bf, Mr Tan drove us to East Coast Hong Kong cafe for drinks. The milk tea is very nice. Mr Tan also drove us home. Reached home around 1230am. Feel so tired but it was nice catching up.

活到老 学到老

正在车站等车回家时,旁边坐了一位年龄大约60几岁的老太太,没想到她竟然从包包拿出一架Nintendo DS! 她开始玩起Brainage...我有点吓呆了。想不到,年长的爷爷奶奶也流行这个玩意儿。哈哈。

I like this top!!!

NByN

Received a call on Friday evening that I've been selected for a complimentary makeover and photoshoot. I will be able to choose 2 photos complimentary of the studio. Arrange to go down on Sunday evening at 6pm. The place is at 69 Circular Road (Boat Quay). Alot of families were there to take their photos.
For the first look I wore my fave brown dress and it's more of a lifestyle natural look. The second look is more of a glamourous shot. Tried on the leather suit. Surprisingly the effect wasn't as bad as i thought. A total of 25 shots were taken for each of the looks. Chose the above 2 as the rest I didn't really like them.

No Reservations

Met up with Jimmy to catch "No Reservations" at Cathay (fri). The movie was quite nice. http://noreservationsmovie.warnerbros.com// Think Aaron Eckhart is quite charismatic and Catherine Zeta-jones is so charming. The little girl, Abigail Breslin is also a good actress.
Went to Pastamania for late dinner. Tried the mussels and clams in white wine. It's better than I thought.

几米



Bought 《我只能为你画一张小卡片》some time ago and as there's a Chinese books book fair in school today, decided to buy 《履历表》($9). Will get 《照相本子》the next time.

Mini jacket

Have been looking around for a mini jacket for sometime but can't seem to find nice ones that are reasonably priced. Think khaki color should be nice. Any ideas where to find?

Crosswalk

Came across this website and sign up as a member for free. The online radio is quite nice, offering quite a number of radio stations. The music is quite soothing.

Catching up

Met Yifen at Compasspoint for dinner after school today. Passed her the birthday gift as her birthday is coming up this sunday. Went to Jack's place cos Sakae had a long queue. Tried the chicken and steak combo which was quite alright. Went to Cold Storage next and bought a Meiji Dippy biscuit ($1.30). Quite tasty. Reached home quite tired. Think long day that's why cos in the morning had p1 tuition and after lessons had cca till 615pm.

Cinnamoroll Egg mould

Got this from a shop in Chinatown some time ago...it's actually an egg mould. Just prepare a hard boiled egg and make sure you have just shelled it. Then put it inside the mould and close it, leaving it inside for about 1 minute. Then the shape of cinnamoroll will be formed. Interesting isn't it? Hehe...haven't really tried before cos can't get the hard boiled egg hard enough. Haha

Andox

This is a character created for Andy Lau that's why the name is similar...some of it's expressions are quite cute...Took part in a magazine contest to try to win a 10-inch andox...

True Spa

Went for the complimentary treatment offered by True Spa at 1:15pm today. Chose the intensive eye treatment without knowing that it's the most expensive of the 3 offered till I checked the website (back massage and foot spa were the other 2). Paraffin was used for the eye mask and it was quite hot initially. Didn't really like the smell of the cleanser and moisturiser. Was asked if I want to sign up a package of $99 per month...minimum of 12 sessions. Didn't want to sign up as I don't like the idea of a package...prefer to go when I am free and would prefer Green Sanctuary instead. Bought my 2008 Cinnamoroll organiser from Sanrio corner in Takashimaya. Managed to get the rose and sakura unazukin for sis. Both pink series and costs $9.95 each. Went to Wisma to get the khaki bag ($15). Took a bus down to Plaza Sg next. There are now more small eateries at Basement 2, occupying the Starhub area last time. There's bubbletea, Sakae, Hokkaido ice-cream, dim sum, andersen's ice cream, etc...quite alot to choose from. Found the cinnamoroll handphone strap I saw in Marina Square in Daiso. The shop in Marina Sq was selling one for $4. Can buy 2 from Daiso!

Shopping online

Not really into internet shopping but was referred to this website by my colleague and really think the dresses look very nice. The price is also quite affordable. Thinking of getting this one...but hoping colleague will get more than one piece in order to get the 10% discount. Hehe... http://www.shoplah.com/Dresses/BB020.htm

Piano exam

Took UPA to go for my piano exam today. Went to 54 Waterloo Street a young musicians' centre...the building is 2 storeys...quite nice. Somehow find the examiner looks familiar. Ian Danley if i remember correctly. Scales was alright but when I first started with the first piece...it's not very stable and i think i hit a few wrong notes...sigh...so disappointing. Sight reading was fine and aural was ok...but I'm unsure if there's minuet in 20th Century music...

Around 715pm, felt myself moving in the sofa...there was a 7.9 earthquake in Indonesia and the tremors lasted for some time...it was like going on forever...i felt so giddy after that. Terrible feeling...according to reports on Channelnewsasia, a few buildings in Indonesia collapsed. Hope no one was hurt during this earthquake.

Eye infection

Woke up this morning with a slight discomfort in my left eye. When I got to school it got worse and my eye was quite red. Had to wait for the principal to be in school to apply for UPA as tomorrow I'm going for my piano exam. In the end, the admin manager help me pass to her while I left school early to see a doctor. Went to Sengkang polyclinic but they were closed for lunch and will only open by 1:45pm. Went to the 24hr clinic near my house to get the eye drops cos it was getting a little painful. Went home and took a nap after applying eyedrops. Hope it gets better by tomorrow.

ZEN Microphoto

Was looking around in the Creative store in Plaza Singapura when I spotted a great offer...ZEN Microphoto 8GB is going for $179! Wanted to get the white color but they didn't have anymore stock so got the grey one instead...looks silver to me though...haha. Yes, now i can store all my songs together and not be worried there isn't enough space. Plus the mini screen can view photos but may have to squint though...

Teachers' Mass Lecture 2007

Attended the mass lecture at EXPO Hall 8 today. Breakfast was provided at 8am and the vegetarian bee hoon was quite nice. However, there were no seats so we had to stand till 9am before we can start entering the lecture area. Shelley Sykes is the guest speaker and she was quite entertaining. Here's her website: http://www.shelleysykes.com/ After the lecture went to the times book sale and John Little sale but nothing caught my eye. Went to Paragon to have lunch at Sushi Tei and reached home by 4pm.
