What a Week! (Pt 2)

As expected, I totally didn't hear the alarm go off at 8am, 8.05am AND 8.10am. Yes! I set 3 alarms at 5 mins interval and I slept thru them ALL! In the end, I woke up at 9am (and the riding session was supposed to START at 9am!) and drove like a crazy woman all the way down to Punggol (120km/hr all the way along SLE and TPE praying that there are no traffic police around!).

Surprisingly, riding session was great and I managed to land my toe side 1 wake! On my 1st attempt too!

Lunch session with my teammates at Hougang to eat my favourite "bak chor mee" after riding before heading over to my grandma's place to pay her a visit since I was around the area.

I was desperately trying to fight the ZZZ monster thoughout the day though I did succumbed to a half hr nap on the sofa while watching TV at my granny's place. Dad send me back to the hall at around 9-ish instead of the usual Monday morning rides as he had to be at work by 5am the next day. I wanted to sleep early but with the laundry in all, ended up sleeping at almost 2am again.

And now that a new week has began, it's time to start mugging again before I have even recovered from last week. Oh No!!!

Me & Chun! Damn act cute la!

Me & Darren (Mr. Eat-a-lot) We took so many shots but only this was nice. -_-" The white Sapphire board on the left is mine and the black Prodigy is his.

After showing u guys so many HS jump photos, here is my TS jump!

Of cos, not forgetting our instructor of the day, Raymond. =)

What a Week! (Pt 1)

*Totally drowned by assignments for the past two weeks thus this post is officially late by a 2 whole blardy weeks even though I wrote it almost immediately after the events . Also, stupid Blogger keeps refusing to let me upload photos...and it jammed up again after like 8 photos or so but I had more to post so I had to split the post into 2. Fyuck. Post had been backdated so that I can remember exactly when it happened 10year down the road. =p *

*Warning...Shitload of Photos ahead!*

Oh boy...this has got to be the most tiring week ever for me!

1st, I was having problems with my Psychology assignment...even though I started working on it on Monday, it was so difficult that I had to work THROUGH the night on Thursday before finally completing it at 10.30am, Friday morning.

TIRED CAN!

The worst thing was...I couldn't go to bed after that as I had already promised my bestie to go shopping with her and we were supposed to meet at 12 noon in town. So what to do? I rushed a cab home after handing in my assignment, dropped off all my barangs barangs, and rushed a cab down to Heeren. Total cab fare? $33.20 though the taxi uncle gave me a discount and charged me only $32. He even stopped the meter while waiting for me to drop off my stuff at home! :)

Heeren was a disappointment this time round (as compared to last Friday), probably because I have gotten everything I wanted then. Next stop was Far East Plaza and we walked all the way there after having a heavy lunch at Billy Bombers. I didn't managed to get anything at Far East too as the only dress that caught my attention was sold out. Sighz.

At around 5.30pm, we headed over to Wisma to start our last leg of shopping spree (well, it was a spree for my bestie) and it was off to Din Tai Fung for dinner at around 7-ish when our respective guys joined us in town.

At the end of the day, I got hme almost midnite and ended up with only a bottle of Vaseline which I got from Watsons, a tube of face mask and a bottle of nail polish from SaSa, and a pair of fake lashies from some Korean Make-up Shop (suddenly cannot remember the name) after spending almost 12hrs shopping in town.

Oh yes! Now...my bestie had been talking about getting a 2nd piercing in her ear the whole day but she was swaying between "I so wanna get it" and "But I am scared of the pain!" and so being the BESTIE I am, I helped her decide and "dragged" her to the shop to get it done! :p Here are the pictures!

"Come come let me draw where the piercing should be."

"Done...Ok now let's clip your hair back."

"Ready? Here goes!"

"All done! That wasn't too difficult was it?"

What an unproductive shopping trip but oh what fun! *Laughing and Sobbing at the same time*

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

Slept at 1-ish am on Friday night and woke up at 7am the next morning to get ready for my
uncle's wedding. That's only 5hrs+ of sleep after being awake for 39hrs can! Was damn stoned the whole day, right up till the min I got hme from the wedding dinner and hit the sack at almost 3am and I had to wake up at 8am on Sunday morning for my team riding session!

Me & the bride, Xinni

VivoCity...Va Va Voom!

Yesterday was a day of pure shopping shopping & more shopping! Woot!

Started off the day by picking my guy up from the train station n we drove down to Heeren for some CLEO shop-a-thon.

Initially I was kinda contemplating if I should drive down to town on a Saturday and I am glad I did! Traffic along the CTE was surprisingly clear and it wasn't long before I found a parking lot at Cairnhill Plaza (it's just behind Heeren).

1st stop at Heeren was "Eyeplay" where I got myself a new pair of Adidas Sunnie. Damn Cool looking la! Got a good deal too cos there was a 40% disc voucher for the sunnies in Nov Cleo's Magazine. In the end, I only paid abt $100 for it (original px was $168).

Next stop was a bag shop where I got myself a pink casual "Le Coq Sportif" tote bag. There was also a disc voucher for the bag & instead of $59, I ended up paying only $25 for it. SO happy! *Dance around in Joy*

Wanted to get a couple of tops and dresses at Heeren too but I couldn't find anything that I like. =( In the end, I had a free makeover done up, also courtesy of CLEO, and we had an early dinner at NYDC before driving over to the newest shopping paradise in Singapore, Vivocity!

Didn't managed to get anything there as the few items that caught my eye were way too expensive, but I must say that Vivocity has a few interesting shops that is not found in the other shopping malls in Singapore. I would probably wanna head there again when I go for my 2nd shopping spree with my bestie on Friday.

One shop that is worth mentioning though is GAP! I totally *heart* the jeans there! Super Soft, the cutting is nice, and they have it in DARK INDIGO BLUE!!! As compared to the prices in the States, it is not very much more expensive too...it's $79 for a pair of bootcut originals here while it is US$49.50 or SGD$75 in the States. No more Levis for me! *Bleah*

Ended the day with getting some toiletries n munchies from Watsons and a long drive back home to Sembawang.

I m so gonna do this again. :p

p.s photos of my sunnies n bag will be up...er...when I have taken pics of them alrite?

*hack* *hack* *cough* *cough*

Damn haze...had been having perfect complexion for the past couple of weeks, even with the irregular sleeping time n all but the min the haze comes along, so does my pimples. =(

Not to mention the irritable throat n slightly runny nose.

Thank goodness my immune system seems to be pretty good this time round n I have managed to fight it off till now, and even so, it is nothing serious.

Shoo Shoo...back to where u belong haze.

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

My 2 team riding mates (Darren and Chun) have been jioing me out for supper every alternate night. Sometimes, other riders would join us and it's DAMN FUN LA cos they are super crazy people...but If I get any fatter it's all their fault (though I had been quite disciplined. Most of the time I only drink milo peng while they gorge themselves. =p)

oh...Darren can eat man!!! Every single time we go for supper, he orders at least 6 egg pratas with a can of Coke! Sometimes 7. -_-"

The best part is, he is damn fit n lean...maybe cos he is a tri-athlete. *damn envious*

Roll Eyes

What's up with guys in Singapore?

Remember some time back I blogged abt this guy leaving me a message saying that I am cocky n all?

Back at the same site, recently I received another message that is as "interesting", if not more.

He said and I quote him word for word,

"Heh can we meet and get to know each other better....can hv your contact to make the arrange....then we can go trips together....I love going to thailand and myanmar"

And the next day...

"Hi the, heh can I ask you for dinner and get to know you better. can hv your contact to arrange...cheers david "

I mean DUHZ!

1stly, if you are trying to date a gal out, naturally you will want to impress her. Sending a message in totally CMI English is NOT the way to do it lor!

2ndly, just because I state in my profile that I love to go travelling does not mean that I will want to "go trips together" with you.

3rdly, please please please guys...when u are trying to hit on a gal online, the 1st question that comes out of ur mouth should never be "Can I have your contact?"

Asking for email still not that bad...it's a safer way to get to know a person (yea, yea I know it is not THAT safe but better than nothing rite?" but asking for her phone number even before u know her name?

If that gal gives you her number, chances are that she gave the other 23878678126 guys who asked for it too so she will probably be too busy to be answering your call.

Sighz...

At least this time I decided to be a little kinder n not post something mean to Mr. Singapore_Bachelor since he did not insult me unlike Mr. Piggy back then.

Another type of guy that makes me roll my eyes when I read their message? Those who think that just because they drown you with compliments and praises, you would go out with them.

And when I say drown, I LITERALLY mean drown.

Mr Nicholas82 said,

"hi there, i think you look gorgeous. Hope to be able to know you better. Take care "

While Mr Georgietan said,

"Hi pretty, Juz wanna compliment on ur sweet & gorgeous smile(bet i m not the 1st and last 1 the say that) :)Do u like singing? doglover?how can i get hold of u? by sms? would realli like to noe u betterbtw thanks 4 reading till here.i m sure, wif ur looks u got tonnes of msgs to read.. =P"

But the person who really takes the cake must be Mr Joel04 (and he is only 23. So young!) who messaged me,

"anyway, u are an eye candy! i could jus fall in love with u jus by looking at ur pics...i dunno if u look gd in real or ur pic look gd. but i assume u look gorgeous.... and irresistible.how can i know u?"

Super Roll Eyes!!!

Goofing around on the boat

I have never seen such big "ba dong dongs" on a wakeboarder before! The guys were really mean and said things like "She can jump meh? Wun lose her balance and fall down ah!" Needless to say, one of them took this photo.

Photos

This is gonna be purely a pictorial post as blogger screwed up on me again so I wasn't able to post up pictures of the dinner at NYDC.

These photos were taken by Mark. Mine are still in my camera...heehee *stick out tongue*

Please ignore my face. I have no idea why the stupid grin is there. I look weird. =p

The girls, namely Me (zebra), Waileng (ewe),

Josephine (octopus & bestie for 15yrs) and Xinyi (cow)

The boys, Mark (elephant), Jingwei (duck) and my guy Stevanes (hippo)

The zoo gang! (minus Kevin the turtle)

Surprise!

Remember my other post where I commented that I had been bumping into old friends at NIE?

Well, yesterday I bumped into another dear friend of mine, Herbert, whom I was pretty close to when we were in college.

It's a pity that we slowly start to lose contact with each other after graduation but hey, what do you know! We are back in the same school again! Haha...*grinz*

Looks like NIE is a gd place to be meeting up with old chums. =)

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

2 Sundays ago, my guy "ganged up" with the rest of the zoo gang and threw me a surprise belated birthday dinner...and boy was I surprised! This was what happened...(as far as I can remember lah!)

About a week or so ago

Guy: Dear ah, Sunday WL & the rest are meeting up for dinner hor. 6pm at Wheelock Place. WL is leaving for taiwan on Monday and Sunday seems to be the only day all of them are free.

Me: But like tt means I will be missing muay thai leh. Nevermind lah, you go for dinner with them by yourself.

Guy: Cannot! It is also supposed to be a birthday celebration for you mah.

Me: (not sensing anything fishy) Sighz...ok lah then I go for muay thai on Friday.

Sunday, at Wheelock Place, NYDC

Me: Eh how come I cannot see them? (saw the zoo gang) EH! How come Jo they all are here at NYDC too leh? Waileng and Mark? Xinyi and Jingwei are here too!

Guy: Ya lor...

Me: I tot we are meeting WL they all? *glares at him*

Guy: Heehee...Not my fault! They want it be a surprise mah. *sheepish grin*

And the best part?

Husni, another close friend of mine from college whom I have not seens in eons too, (and he knows Herbert! ALL 3 of us were OGLs (Orientiation Group Leaders) in the same OG back in college) was the supervisor on duty at NYDC tt day, and knowing that it was my birthday celebration, he brought over a slice of brownie with a candle on it, and an additional slice of mango ice-cream cake, on the house!

Needless to say, that birthday dinner is now ranked as one of the best birthday celebration I ever had with my friends. =)
