Withdrawal Symptoms are BAD.

Finally finished reading the Twilight Series, suffering from withdrawal symptoms like emptiness and a lost of meaning to my existence. It doesnt help much when the hols are drawing to a close, LOTS of stress waiting for the marketing peeps from 29 Dec onwards *shudders* Right now, its like how i felt when i finished the last Harry Potter book but HP was worse, the ending was so complete that you can be 100% sure there won't be a sequel until at least a decade later. As for Twilight, maybe i only need wait half a decade?! hopefully... Breaking Dawn didnt really mark an END, which is good :D
Went for some retail therapy with Alrik on fri, ZARA sales was the main calling but there were sales EVERYWHERE literally. Every glass panel/window on the stores at Orchard read "SALES SALES SALES". Who could resist that? I think the "Who" refers mainly to me me actually, only a shopping addict like me cant resist sales. Bot a new hoodie(i know its impractical and i hav a lot of impraticality in my closet alrdy), weird Tee and a weirder pair of shoes. I've been having a kink for weird stuff lately, so weird that i dont think i'm weird enough to carry it off. LOL.
Btw, i still have my A&P IJ to complete before term starts. NO IDEA how i'm gonna finish that in a day plus a draft for IMP1 IJ too :(


PS:I decided to borrow The Host from Alrik, don't think i can hold on much longer w/o some Stephanie Meyer. haha.

MERRY X'MAS EVERYONE !!!!

PS: ZARA sales starts today.

Twilight & Insomnia

hihi. i realise i havnt blogged since forever. So i decided to revive this dead thing. haha. I'm going GAGA over the Twilight series, its even worse than Harry Potter, its like "my own personal brand of heroin". I dont know if Twilight's the reason why i've been suffering from insomnia, hopefully not. My mind was so boggled that i ended up going for a walk at 1am in the morning while listening to the Twilight soundtrack. I had to post my X'mas/New Year cards at the same time too. So, i was strolling lifelessly towards Bedok Reservoir when out of the blue, it started to drizzle. Much as i expected, it started POURING. Seriously, like WTH! So suey meh?! So i ran ran ran to the nearest shelter, thank god it wasnt very far. I ended up stuck under the massive flyover, waiting patiently for the rain to stop. With chilly wind blowing in my face, i kinda regretted not bringing my hoodie out with me (learnt my lesson now). So there i was with no handphone, so i couldnt even get someone to chat with me while i waited, glumly. At least 5 taxis slowed down when they approached me but i had no cash with me (another lesson learnt). I think i listened to the whole soundtrack at least once before i realised that the rain wasnt gonna stop anytime soon. Once more, i had to RUN RUN RUN but this time it was for the distance of one bus stop to another. Not very near, especially when your running against icy wind and heavy downpours. I'm glad i ran cos the rain didnt cease till i woke up at 10am this morning. Btw, it was already 3am by the time i got home,i slept at 3.30am. Thinking back, its actually kinda fun. I mean, how many people have been bo liao enough to have taken walks alone at 1am ( until 3, with rain)? Can't wait for X'mas tmr, my gifts inculde "Tales of Beedle the Bard", "Eclipse" and "Breaking Dawn". YEAHHHHHHHH. I'm gonna finish the series before the hols end. The next term's gonna be hell... MERRY X'MAS everyone! I hope i'll blog again before the new year. And to alrik, i'm glad i felt like we were back to sec1 days yesterday. Chatting carefreely and all that. You can ask me again if you dont know wat i mean, LOL.

PS: I'm so afraid of turning 19, any number above 18 turns me off, MAJOR.

Green Day

Met Janice by accident yesterday along the row of LTs. And by accident, we decided to go to NTUC too. And by ACCIDENT, we met my aunt. Now my whole family's gonna think i have a GF, controversy! JANICE, i HATE YOU. LOL. But b4 NTUC, we were with Yanru, went to buy bathing salt for her ancient grandpa hamster. Pet shops really stink man. After tt, poor Yanru couldnt go to NTUC becos she lives in Boon Lay now, takes her 1 & half hrs to reach home. Poor thing. Here' our green pic, we're the new Green Day. HAHA.

We look SO not frens. haha.

Dessert Buffet

Went dessert buffet with my sis at Goodwood Park on Monday! It was ok ok lah, everythig looked really good but looks can be deceiving. Really loh, it didnt taste very good. The Durian puff was still a little frozen in the centre, they didnt thaw it properly. Got alot of cranberry and raspberry stuff that i dont really like. But there was free flow of Mövenpick Ice Cream, i had like 3 bowls and 6 scoops, haha. Got all my money back just from the ice cream LOL. BTW, does anybody want to go for Taiwan Porridge Buffet?! Here's some pics:


Pastries!



Mysis took a pic of me trying to act chi chi. LOL.

A cleaning auntie came out of the toilet door out of the blue while we were cam whoring in front of the mirror. SCARY.

Happy belated

Blogging bout 17th June 2008, Juz went out with e 1B10 clique to celebrate my Bday, belated. Ooh, it was so much fun.

I met Jan in the aftn to watch Sex and The City at orchard cineleisure b4 meeting the others at The Central (yes, AGAIN). It was so funny when we were buying tickets to SNTC, we were both so scared cos Jan's still underage by a few months but luckily we had a secret weapon HOHOHO, not gonna tell. Sex and the City was vry funny, with alot of WAH, WAH, WAH. Seriously, who wouldnt wanna be rich and living in downtown manhattan? Well of cos the movie was accompanied by tons of nudity and intense sex scenes but even the sex part was hilarious, HAHA.
Jan n i were damn lethargic after watching the movie cos it was like 2&half hours long, we sort of dragged our feet here and there to pass time. We ended up eating snax at dhoby ghaut MRT's foodstalls and gopping free samples from the brownie store. After we were done with DG, we took a train down to Central and once again, we ATE. This time it was the "extremely mouth watering but look like plastic food" croissants on sale at the basement of Central. I bot 8 pieces and shared 2 with Jan.


At 7pm, we all met at Manhattan Fish Market, my fave fishy store for dinner. Dinner was so so cos Jan and Claud ran away to do some stuff for Jan's dad at the ATM. So we had to wait for them to come back, by the time they were back, our food was cold. Altho the food was anti-climax, the mess was FUN!

I went out with Jan again to settle her ATM things once and for all, during this time, the rest were at manhattan discussing with e manager wat to use to slam my face in. They decided on whipped cream with strawberry sauce. N of cos, poor ryhn was clueless. When i came back, i juz sat down with Jan n we were talkin talkin then out of the blue came this white thing about to slam into my face, i wasnt fast enough. So, PIAK, they got me and the WAR commenced! In the end i got back at all of them except jan lah, cos eva was constantly eyeing me, i didnt have time to attack Jan, haha. It was really fun playing with cream, my virgin experience, HAHA.
*Warning: U stink really bad after the cream dries, its like soured milk plus rotten eggs.

But we all still had to take public transport home lah, no choice...


Here are some pics we took:

My Bday cake

RAY

On the actual date of my Birthday, 16 June i went out with chee yong for a free movie cos both of us nothing better to do other than hao lian tt we didnt have hangovers. haha. We were supposed to have the free movie thing but sadly, The Happening was on the *no free list in cathay. So tooooo bad loh, we paid $6 each for it. After that went CD shopping at The Cathay's Gramophone and we went PS carrefour to buy earphones. The earphone is SOLID man...

waiting for my hamburger steak...

We hung out till bout 6pm then i headed to The Central to meet yong di, alrik and xiu hao for dinner at Ma Maison. I love that place man, so quaint and english cottage-y. Still got a supposed view of the river, but the window sill too high lah, i couldnt see much, haha. I had sizzling hamburger steak, the waitress gave me a serviette to cover my clothes while she poured the sizzling sauce but it didnt really sass up much. So it was kinda anti-climax. I think yongdi was expecting it to splash all over my face and watch me rolling ard on the floor in agony. FAT hope BITCH!

After our romantic dinner for 4 at Ma Maison, we headed to Plaza Singapura's Swensen's for my complimentary birthday boy firehouse!

Mm mmmmm.... Free stuff always tastes GOOD!

After eating our Ice creams, the RAYs were back at doing wat we do best. Extremely throw face, sometimes obscene and loud cam whore sessions in public places. Here are e results:

After e cam whore sessions were done, we had to leave. So we took somemore pics outside LOL.

I was trying to look pissed, i dont know why!(top) Alrik, Ryhn, Xiu Hao(bottom)

Oh yah, here's wat YongDi got me.

Oh, how sweet, my BSDFBF knows me best. Wat else to buy an alcoholic, but liquor samples!

My 18th!

Happy Birthday to ME,
Happy Birthday to ME,
Happy Brthday to Lee Kun Keng,Ryhn
Happy Birthday to ME!

Hey guys/gals, yep, its moi Big DAY. I went pub hopping with Chee Yong and Aron last night at Clarke Quay! We had a BLAST, at least my blast was the biggest haha. First, we walked around CQ trying to find a pub worthy for us but then we're amateurs lah. So we ended up in Indochine, i had their signature cocktail, the butterfly effect. It tasted Sweet sweet but no kick, disappointed. After finishing our drinks and cam whoring with e terra cotta, we headed for another pub. The second pub we went to (crazy elephant) checked our IC, aron and i both fail cos technically my Bday was still 40mins shy. So we went shopping for other pubs and TADA, we ended up in my now fave pub, HIGHLANDER. The live band there is awesome cos they sang songs that i know and can sing along loudly to mainly cos i was drunk from one more shot of flaming lamborghini and i had another slippery nipple. No worries, it did not taste like a nipple. We had saggis croquette too, aron only told us its duck innards after we ate 1 each. But who cares, i couldnt even taste a thing LOL. Conincidentally, there were 2 other 16 Juners in highlanders, haha. So FUN. After screaming to Zombie, Iris, Next to be with you blah blah, we headed to the jetty to act cranky again. Then we were off to the stupid pub tt banned us from drinking the first time(crazy elephant). This time we sat outside, but aron still didnt drink. I had a lychee martini but halfway thru i really couldnt take it anymore, so i gave aron half of my drink. He mixed it into his fruit punch, haha. After drinking and me talking incessantly, we went to the steps across the pubs to sit and make wishes by tossing coins into the river. Chee Yong kept talking bout how Senoir Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew's gonna screw us if he finds out we were tossing coins into the river. Bleah~! It's my BIRTHDAY, i can throw my whole piggy bank into river!!! After crapping and pebble skipping for a while, we decided to leave cos ryhn obviously couldnt take it anymore and aron has orientation today. Poor chee yong's Night Rider buses dont operate on Sunday/Mondays, so i think he had to take a cab home like Aron n i.

All in all, this was my highest and happiest Birthday celebration! Thanks guys, we'll have more Drinks to come. haha! Next time, chee yong's gonna do the flaming waterfall, GOOD LUCK in advance =D

Feeling high after the flaming lamborghini ->

Drank too much, so i decided to jump into the river

So many things

Bon Appetit a Le Bistrot

Hello pple, i'm too lazy to retype a recount of the meal. So i juz copy paste the review that i wrote on hungrygowhere.com. haha. Ok lah, i edited some pronouns so tt it'll sound more sensible. Happy reading.

*Warning* Do not salivate on your keyboard.

On my first visit to Le Bistrot, i was generally pleased with the entree and main. I had this deep-fried pork cube thing that consisted mainly of pork fat. I'm not really a fan of pre-rendered lard, but it was quite alright with some refreshing vegetables at the side to soothe my palate a little. I had duck leg confit for mains. The duck leg was good, but not as good as i had expected it to be, there was mashed potato w/ vinaigrette sauce for sides but the potato wasnt really to my liking. However, the desserts i had were FABULOUS, i ordered the Grand Chocolat Chaud. Its this huge set of desserts,consisting of macaroons, chocolate chip ice cream, a shot of trinidad rum, a pot of hot milk and a seperate molten chocolate to make ure own hot chocolate drink. I loved the chocolate chip ice cream cos it was special. it wasnt really choc chips in the ice cream, they were more like crunchy choc flakes in the ice cream. It was HEAVENLY! On my first visit, i tot that the customer service was definitely above average but the ambience of the place was rather intimidating for 1st time visitors.

These are some pics of the dining space at Le Bistrot

I managed to 'gop' some pics from the internet thx to my magnificient searchbar skills. I had to 'gop' Bcos Aron forgot to bring his digicam, my hp was out of batt & CY's N95 was under repair.

On my second visit, i went there with Aron and Chee Yong to celebrate Chee Yong's Birthday. This time, the experience was really enjoyable. The lady waitress was very friendly and humorous, she totally made us feel comfortable being there(she wasnt there on our 1st visit). I didnt feel so out of place anymore.

Becos we bought a ice cream Bday cake, we had to borrow their freezer to store the cake till the end of our meal. The lady very readily agreed to lend us their freezer space when i called to make reservations. We were very well attended to throughout the whole meal and the waiter/eses were polite and yet not intimidating. This time around, I had grilled goat cheese for entree. The goat cheese was savoury and not too oily. I couldnt detect any of the "goaty" smell from the cheese. But i thot the serving was a little too huge for one. Especially since I was having 3 courses.

Grilled Goat Cheese on toast(entree)

For mains, i had Grilled Salmon and it was good good good. I especially loved the sauce that accompanied the salmon, it complimented the natural flavour of the salmon very well. The salmon was done in a special way such that the heart of the steak was left slightly uncooked. Don't start imagining sashimi in the middle, its more like moist salmon meat in the middle. I loved it vry much!

For desserts, i had L'Imperial.

It is actually cold fruit soup. It consists of 2 scoops of mango-passionfruit sorbet, macerated fraises des bois(wild strawberries) and peppercorns, then at your table, the waiter starts topping up the dessert with a generous serving of champagne. Some people might not like the taste of this dessert becos of the bitterness of the champagne and the rather weird way to eat a dessert with peppercorns, at least for asians. I didnt really like it at first too, but by the time i finished half a bowl, the dessert was really growing on me. It tastes better and better, spoon after spoon. By the time i reached the bottom, the dessert got sweeter and it was really an alternative experience.

Also, our cake was originally packaged in a swensen's cardboard box. I expected them to perhaps remove the box and serve us the cake as it is. But when we asked for the Birthday cake to be brought to our table, it was very elegantly presented on 2 big plates, the bigger one at the bottom was filled with dry ice(perhaps leftovers from the ice cream box) and another plate above it held the cake. I was impressed with the effort they put in to impress their customers and make every moment enjoyable. It was definitely above my expectations. The waitress even initiated and joined us in singing a Birthday song for CY. We were actually a little apprehensive(altho i was drunk), becos Le Bistrot is a rather quiet and peaceful place to begin with. It might have been rude of us to break the peacefullness with a Birthday song, haha.

I'd juz like to point out that customer service might vary depending on the waiter and waitresses on shift but you can be assured that the service will definitely be satisfactory even if u'r a fussy person like me.We were very lucky to be in the service of such a nice and friendly lady tonight. And i'm looking forward to my next visit there. I definitely recommend you guys to try out this place for yourselves. Also, they will be introducing a brand new menu in July 08, so you might wanna try their current menu and by the time you pay a recurring visit, you might be able to try their new menu!

CY's Bday cake (Death By Chocolate) from the swensen's website. LOL.



Once more, HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHEE YONG!

Fun night

Yeah! I finally got my microsoft office fixed. Thanks Eva! Now i can do my projects properly... Went out for dinner with my 1B10 clique today, I had so much fun crapping and making fun of everyone today. But of cos, i'll always get SUANed and bullied too. haha. Characters today are:
1. New emo kid on the block (hao you)
2. Future tai tai (claudia)
3. Future tai tai's current lesbian partner cum personal shopper (eva)
4. Crazy woman cum cheena piang (yanru)
5. Still the same woman (shiqi)
6. Full of shit (ryhn)
So sry brudder, we forgot to ask u out today cos everything so confusing, we didnt realise tt u were not invited. Cos its yanru n i wanna go at first, then...
Step 1: yanru n i ask shiqi and haoU on MSN cos we were grp chatting.
Step 2: yanru ask claudia
Step 3: Claudia ask eva
Then i tot yanru ask every1 alrdy, n of cos yanru tot i ask u alrdy.
So dont bee sad anymore k? Or else u'll drop more hair then cannot be as strong as a bull anymore...

We had dinner at sakae tepanyaki, the food's okok only but its vry fun. Cos the chef 's cooking in front of u then u can keep complaining tt the food serve vry slow and u dont hav to worry that the chef will spit in your food.
I had the Beef set which has this really cool grilled chawanmushi thing. The chawanmushi's wrapped around by an onion, it tasted abit like fried omelette but tasted like chawanmushi. Kinda moronic lah, but it worked for me cos i'm moronic too!

Grilled Chawanmushi


Tai Tai was as usual , complaining and "WAH!"-ing at everything. Poor ryhn was sitting with the jap pple, when he shuld joined the french! Then we culd hav OH LA LA! Tres Bien! Tres Deliceux! at everything oso. Tai Tai and i were still not full after dinner so we went to Angie the Choice for durian deserts. Tsk tsk, extravaganza loh.
Hope we can all go out again soon but its gonna get more n more difficult cos projects are piling up for me and crazy woman then we might not be so free anymore. SAD.

And guess wat?! I didnt have to watch 69 pass by me under my nose today. Cos the bus came at the right time and i didnt have to wait at all, altho i did hav to run to catch the bus. Felt like an idiot after tt cos i was flapping my arms like a chicken trying to flag the bus down while running. When i got on the bus, everyone was looking at me so i juz acted like they were staring at the gal behind me. This is a skill of mine called "self deception" it can be vry vry useful at times.

PEOPLE, wish me luck, i have a lawyer's interview tmr!
Request from claudia: HI CLAUD! Work towards ure future of being a tai tai ok? Then u can perm ure dog's hair to match ures, act like a bimbo playing with her hair. And most importantly, wack ure maids head with ure LV bag when U'r not happy!

And brudder: Next time i WILL make sure u know!

Miracle

Wow, its a milestone. I reached my second post. N brudder janice is stopping me from blogging cos she PM me. Gimme a minute, i reply her first..... (1 min passed, just imagine w/ me ok?)
OK, naggy jan set me back by 10mins alrdy. Anyway, i dont really hav a concept on wat to blog yet altho many many interesting things did happen today but they're too personal to blog about. Lets start with morning bus rides to sch then. OK, i dont seem to have much affinity with buses. The DAMN buses always run away from me right under my nose LITERALLY, its been like 3 consecutive mornins alrdy...
I faithfully cross the overhead bridge every mornin to the busstop so as not to waste the taxpayers' money. Unlike those uncivilised monkeys who J-walk across the road under me. I'll admit i used to be a monkey too, but evolution kinda made me evolve into a better man. haha, bullshitting. Actually its becos the fortune teller told my mum tt i'll be involved in some catastrophic accident this year tts gonna involve lots of bloodshed *shudders* N my mum evaluated tt the most common things i should avoid would be J-walking and riding pillion on motorbikes. U know how parents like to *eyes open BIG BIG* and speak in chinese, "U better don't anyhow cross the road ah! U got hear me not?!" They sound as if u got someone pregnant or u got hitched in genting last weekend. But since i'm a coward to say the least, i decided to be filial and listen to my mum. Oh yes pple, mothers' day's comin up, WARNING to those brats who forgot who brot u up so tt u can face ure computer for a longer time than u look at them in the eye. My mum hasnt tot of a gift yet, funky right? My mum gets to pick wat she wants, so no budget presents from me n my sis. I'd call that fleecing if she were'nt my favourite mother!
I'm glad tt i wuldnt hav to celebrate father's day, no presents = higher disposable income. Joy for me, cos the Great S'pore Sales is comin up. 23may! Boys and gurrrrls its time to get down and dirty, grabbing every shit u can find. We're gonna bring out the Clawing aunties and Kiasu Uncles in us. Don't bother calling out for me if u see me waging war in shopping centres, i might dig ure eyeballs out b4 i realise u'r my friend. I won't take responsibility for any bodily harm caused ok? So juz take note...
Enuf of shopping, now about me. I realise tt i'm a totally different person when i'm w/ pple i know vry well VS acquaintaces VS strangers. So if u've just known me, plis dont mistake me as a anti-social freak. haha. This blog tells alot about my personality from the way i write. Dig deep and find out, read between the lines. Tts enuf for today, cant thing of an interesting ending. But this reminds me of attention grabbers, good old Commskills. haha...

A dedication to JANICE, may u get fatter and T.S.

1st entry of blog no. ???

I have no idea how many blogs i've quitted so far, its part of me to give up halfway cos i'm nuah. I have few friends cos i dont really like to socialise around unneccessarily n i think its really er xin if i go ard trying to keep in contact with frens, i'd rather they call me out or something. I'm a weirdo in short. The closer i m to you, e cuckoo-er
and crappier I get. Haha, yong di and alrik can be my best witness. Ryhn = Asshole. I dont have mood swings unless u offend me which is quite often actually. I'm trying n learning to juz be myself cos life's to short to be someone else right? Its difficult, but i'll try. But then again, if i choose to be myself, i definitely wont be studying. I'd be working n travelling my life away, tts wat i want. I absolutely LOVE, ADORE drinking water to the point tt my bladder is now of an abnormal size, i can store lots of pee. COOL right? I love to eat too, i'm willing to pay any amount to eat but e problem is all my frens maybe except chee yong are not willing to spend on good food. The only reason why i go out is so i can eat something ELSE. So, life's sad for now. My newest craze is Menotti, the deserts there are MMM MMMMMMM.... I tried more than half e desert menu alrdy, highly recommend curry dolce! So pple, if u wanna feast n cant
find any1, call me. I realise something else about myself, i like to use commas. Every sentence of mine has a COMMA in it. Oh yes, i dont like to swear but i'm ok w/ others swearing maybe i'll flinch a lil, but its fine by me. By swear i mean fuck and CCB, not ure book of oaths. I live with my grandma, so my hokkien has improved by leaps and bounds i wanna be a hokkien masterclass. haha. So dont try to hao lian ure elementary hokkien in my face ok? Don't bother checking back on my blog too often. I might only update once a month or delete after 1 week n let it R.I.P. with my other blogs. bye peeps
