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.

Should I?

As my own Vaio is super duper slow...it takes like 20min to load a webpage...test my patience...haiz...so am thinking of trading it in but as it runs on celeron so the trade in price is quite pathetic...less than $200...really like the new pink vaio...think it looks really sweet...but after discount it's around $1800...thinking if I should buy...or should I get a cheaper acer or compaq...how how?

Happy Teachers' Day!

Watched the Teachers' Day concert twice as the Upper primary and lower primary lessons have to be present in the hall. Didn't want to teach so brought the p2s to the library and I borrowed some books to read during the holidays. Waited in school for the dinner as I didn't want to go home and come back to school again. The theme is Surfers' Paradise so can wear casual clothing and enjoy the barbeque food. The food was quite nice and get to take some photos with my colleagues and Mrs Teo!

Dinner

Met up with Ace for dinner as I've accidentally left my Precious Moments water bottle in his car the last time we met up. Went to Lei Garden as he haven't try before. Tried the soup, duck's tongue, beef, vegetables and fried ee mian plus mango pudding while he got the gui ling gao...really nice meal...=)

Weeeee...

“老师，我很急，来不及跟你讲......”
My P1 boy came up to me and as he was telling me that, he was wetting his pants at the same time...haiz...luckily there's cleaners around in the school, or else I will have to be Aunty Maria...The rest of the kids started to yeeee....so I had to keep them quiet by telling them if you continue to say that, you will have to help wipe the floor. Another boy was helping to hand in some worksheets and he was quite funny because as he pass by that area, he literally bend himself away while running. I told him you better stop running, later you slip and fall, your face will end up in the puddle. Haha...

Graduation photos

Went to Esplanade to take graduation photos before returning the gown and mortar cos rented it. No point buying as won't wear it again.

Ratatouille

Went to watch this disney animation with Jimmy at Cineleisure after my piano lesson. It's very funny and cute. Like the plot and the music. Really like the scene where Remy realise he is in Paris. The lights and the Eiffel tower looked really nice. Can find out more from the official website: http://disney.go.com/disneypictures/ratatouille/main.html

Laptop woes

For the past week have been unable to go online when i'm home cos home laptop's motherboard has spoilt...it's only been about 2 years the most...so NEC isn't that fantastic afterall. Then I reformatted my laptop as it was so slow...somehow after reformatting the wireless network can be connected but server could not be found. Luckily my friend who lives nearby is able to help take a look at it and now it's ok already. whew...so inconvenient without internet...

Catching up

Met up with Dave to have dinner together. Arranged to meet at Clarke Quay mrt station. Went to Settlers' Cafe. Enjoyed the games called Da Vinci and Hey that's my fish! Walked over to Central and caught abit of fireworks from the shop windows. Went over to coffeeclub cafe and shared the muddy mud pie...it was so big that both of us couldn't finish it. There was coffee and chocolate icecream and oreo cookie at the bottom...totally sinful! Took SBS54 to bishan before catching a cab home, reached home around 1215am.

Rush Hour 3

Uncle got 2 free movie tickets for this show so he gave it to mum and we went to watch together at the Cathay. The movie was quite funny and entertaining. Reached home late though cos we took a bus back.

Primary school gathering

Met up with my primary school friends at Bishan's Cafe cartel. Gengming, Grace, Delong, Yonglim, Wanli, Gaozheng and Dunlin was there. Had a long dinner before heading to AMK's Mcdonalds (the one beside the park). Spent quite some time talking about the old days. Had quite a good time. Reached home pretty late...12plus am. Luckily Gengming was driving so he sent me home.

NTU Convocation 2007

Applied for UPA to attend the NTU convocation. Collected my certificate from NTU student admin centre. Saw some of my YEP trip friends and took photos after the ceremony. Prof Goh Eng Seng and Tan Kar Jun were there at the ceremony. Dr Vilma was there too. Didn't take photo with them though. Could take 2 free photos and went to buy the stage photo. Mum bought me a teddy bear with the graduation gown and mortar. It wears glasses too! =)

Racial Harmony Day and Open House

Return to school today for the racial harmony day and open house. Was there by 730am. Have to attend to the prefects...just walk around to make sure they are doing their duty. There was teh tarik and dragon beard candy. Lunch was packet food and didn't really have much of an appetite. Did Henna on my right hand. Costs $2. It was pouring but there was a huge crowd. Feel so sleepy and coffee also didn't help. Haha.

Getting traditional costume

Met Ace for dinner at Novena, Ichiban Boshi. The japanese satay was nice. Went to Square2 and bought a black floral skirt for $15 (on offer). Pass by Mustafa so decided to go check out if there's any traditional clothes I can buy. Managed to find a red top for $19.90.

Dinner and Drinks

Met Wenjun at Sun with Moon before heading to Clarke Quay for drinks. Changed quite abit since the last time I was there. There was a drinking place call Clinic with patient beds as chairs and blinds that is similar to those in hospitals. Quite cute. Maybe cos it's a Tuesday, there were not alot of people. Went to Irumour as it has Chinese songs. However, most of the songs are pretty old. Tried Whisky coke, vodka lime and tequila pop. Like Vodka lime the most. After 2 tequila pop, I was a little wasted. Didn't even notice when he went to the restroom. But felt better after drinking some water and cranberry juice. Reached home quite late, around 1230am.

Mediacorp show

Met Delong for the charity show at Mediacorp. The show starts at 7pm but we have to be there by 6pm. Didn't finish watching the show as we were pretty hungry. Went to AMK Hub's Mos Burger to eat as the food court is already closing. The theatre at Mediacorp was actually not as big as filmed on TV. Quite a nice experience though.

Lawry's Prime Ribs

Met Majush for dinner at Paragon. Went for a facial before meeting him at Green Sanctuary. The beef was nice but the spinning bowl salad was pretty ridiculous.

Pri sch gathering

Met a match.com caucasian friend in the morning before meeting up with Yonglim and Dunlin for lunch at Sun with Moon. Before meeting them checked out the toy store at Wheelock and found the uzabikin gashapon machine. Super lucky. Got the other 2 which I was missing and also another pinkrose one for sis.

Again I "huh?" and finally he got it correct by saying friend..nearly fainted..haha husband...so rubbish. Bought a pair of black jeans from Candle for $30+. Took a bus to Plaza Singapura and since it was still early, we went for coffee at Toast Box. Had dinner at the food court before walking to Paradiz Centre KBox.

Catching up

Met up with one of my NIE friend and we went to NYDC at Wheelock. Saw this caucasian guy sitting beside our table and was really surprised that my friend dare to approach him for his number...haha.

Nice accent

Went to Bugis today to check out the shops. Bought a small pentel pen that is in the shape of an orange crayon...super cute. Saw Mark Zee at the Voodoo doll store (photo above). He was asking if I needed help. Like his accent, the way he speaks english is very pleasant-sounding. Didn't buy any in the end cos even after discount it costs $12.50. Met Alvin and walked to Midlink Plaza for mixed fruit ice. Decided to go to Suntec and along the way had Tom Yam Seafood soup at Ah Loy Thai in Shaw Towers. Turned two capsules with mini Sylvanian figurine for $2 each. Reached home quite tired and took a short nap.

Shrek 3

Met Delong at Harbourfront MRT for Shrek 3. He managed to get free tickets from his sis but we had to sit in the first row. The movie wasn't as lousy as some claimed...quite funny. I like the part where Gingy was frightened and pooped a small pink gummy sweet. So funny...
Here's the official website: www.shrek.com
