Another wonderful weekend ^_^

Yet another week has passed, seems like my weekdays are really busy, that I don't even have the time to blog... Well, except for thurs and fri, I seems to be reaching home quite late..

Anyway, watched Final Destination 4 in 3D yesterday, and I must say that the effects are really good!! It's really as if the things are flying towards you.. Although the story line is pretty boring, as in its expected what will happen... Its just seeing how the ppl die lol... I think the most gory scenes are the women getting crushed by the tyre, and the one being rolled up into the escalator haha.. was expecting they'll show more gory scenes for the swimming pool guy, but they didn't =p
Since this is both our first 3D movie, we took a photo in the cinemas with our specs lol... after the movie, went to walk around in Suntec, and had Happy meal, cos the toy is doraemon! haha sis alr got the 2nd toy which is the time machine for me, and i got the 1st toy which is the rolling stamp thingy ytd..

As for today, after praying for the 7th month at home, went Ion Orchard to have the 1-for-1 Ice-cream and dessert buffet
Had ice creams, waffles, fruits with choco fondue and some cakes.. was really full haha.. after the delicious feast, we went paragon to get our phones.. yup i finally got my W508 ^_^
I got the white one of cos, think the grey looks too dull, and most importantly, the white one has got green buttons! lol.. well, shall go off to sleep now since i need to wake up early tmr...
Anyway, hopefully Deary enjoyed himself as much as I did over the weekend ^_^

Great Weekend!

I had a great weekend! Except for the little incident on sat evening that made me a little unhappy, but luckily everything was resolved soon ^_^

Well, after tuition for Bronson on Fri, went out for dinner with parents... They suddenly decided to have KFC, so we went all the way to Bedok KFC.... It was very crowded, and brought back memories that my dad used to bring our whole family there on Sundays after swimming... So after the delicious meal, we walked around Bedok Central for awhile.. Then Dad suggested going to East Coast Park, hahah so we went to ECP and took a stroll along Bedok Jetty... Again, many wonderful childhood memories came back, when my Dad always went fishing there and we'll go cycling and have lots of fun... Sometimes we will pitch a tent, and stayed overnight, was really fun back then..

Tuition for Bronson again on Sat morn, and he gave me a solar powered Doraemon (those that will nod the head) as Teacher's Day present as there'll be no lesson next week... Hopefully he'll do well for his CA! Tuition at The Mentor, Sherwin's face was 'nicely' decorated by Jurgen, until he looked like some ppl going for halloween party lol..

Went home after tuition, before going Punggol to try on the bridesmaid dresses for HuiZhu's wedding.. Now we're choosing between green and blue, of cos I chose green! But have to wait for 2 others to make their choice before we make e final decision.. hopefully it'll be green hahah!

Meet Leo at City Hall, and watched The Proposal at Marina Square, it was a funny show, lightens up my heart and makes me forget bout the unhappy incident before e show... well its actually because my tutorial timeslot got changed to another day, and just nice I had another lesson on, so cant make it for the tutorial... But i'm supposed to do a presentation with a partner for that tutorial, and i've alr prepared my stuff, yet now i cant make it for e tutorial.. initially tot the tutor will want me to change topic and present in the later weeks, so was feeling abit upset since i've alr prepared my stuff... luckily my tutor say can just let my partner present my part... but its abit unfair to her, since she got to present 2 persons' share.. well thats the best alr luckily it din affect me much =p


Went Cafe Cartel after movie and had some snacks and cheesecake, then chatted awhile before heading home.. It was a great day!


Today was Leo's Dad's Birthday, so I went over with a cake... Got the Mango Mousse Cake from Galicier Confectionary at Serangoon Central, the cake was nice with generous servings of mango chunks... Slurps! Went for dinner at Ah Yat Abalone Restaurant, with his family and some of his dad's students... had a very very filling dinner, really love the 竹蚌, i think its called bamboo clams.. as we were so full after the dinner, we walked to clarke quay... after his parents went home, we took a stoll along the sg river, and then sat by e riverside, watching ppl playing the reverse bungee... it looks so fun! really wan to try it someday, too bad Leo dun dare to take haha hopefully will be able to find some frens who's willilng to take it with me lol.. Its home sweeet home now, a busy but fulfilling weekend! Had a great time with my beloved family and deary!
Looking forward, a new week ahead, really have to start working!!! Its week 3 alr, but I think i'm still in holiday mood! Shall really start on my readings...

Bored in school

Well after 2 days of MC which I spent sleeping at home, am back in school.. Just ended Singapore Chinese tutorial, having a 2 hour break before next tutorial.. So bored... Missed AED and AMX lessons, hopefully it won't affect me too much.. Shall start preparing for my presentation next fri...

Went for tuition in the morning, feel kinda helpless cos I really don't know how can I really help Bronson.. He really needs more exposure to Chinese and speak more in Chinese, but my tuition is only once a week, can't help him much also... Although he speaks better now than before(when I just started teaching him), he used to speak like an angmoh, cos he speaks English all the time... Now its abit better, but he is still unable to read alot of words, and also cant understand alot of words... Am really worried for him...



Anyway, went to watch Where Got Ghost with parents, Leo, sis & Zan at Tampines this afternoon... It was very funny, only a little bit scary (I don't usually watch ghost movies, yet I think its not very scary), yup so it was rather nice, the cinema is filled with laughter.. I love to watch comedies...

After the movie, went to City Hall with Leo, wanted to spend my $2o Robinsons voucher which will expires at the end of the month, but didn't get anything... Walked around Raffles City, then we went Esplanade.... Had dinner at Ichiban, I really love the lobster salad sushi there haha taste really good! Had a walk around Marina Promenade, discussed about some religious issues, and it really isn't a good topic to touch on... I don't like to, I don't wish to, but sometimes its not a matter of choice... Somethings have to be discussed... The problems will be around, even if we avoided talking about them... I just hope that things will get better... There are no right or wrong answers, only whether we can accept.. Really hope that I willl accept and stick on with my own choice.. I have faith that I made the right decision 2 years ago, and I shall believe in us.... ^_^

Went out to Bugis after tuition today with Nic, cos I wanted to borrow Coelho Paul's book from the lib.. Read The Alchemist by the him, and the book was inspiring, so I decided to read his other books... Cos the train ride to school every morning is boring... Dun feel like reading my lecture notes also =p

And these are what we had for dinner! This special burger, dunno what is it called, but there's bacon and egg inside, taste good!

I had the fried noodles with fish fillet. Though its only like fried instant noodles, but it was great, and very filling too! I especially like the cheese sauce on the fish fillet hahah so sinful... Anyway, we ate these at a coffee shop opp Bugis Junction, the name of the stall is Macau Munch...

Got this Doraemon frame and water bottle from Nic haha they were on sale! The price for these 2 cant even get me 1 if they weren't on sale... and the bottle is in my favourite green!


Had Starbucks at Compass Point and chatted before going home... it was nice listening to the different 'stories' :p

Think I'll have difficulty sleeping cos of the coffee lol, but never mind, my tuition is at 10.30am tmr, so can sleep in late... Will be going to watch Where Got Ghost with family tmr, hopefully its not too scary, cos I dun watch movies with ghosts...

The new sem is going to be a busy one, and I really have no confidence in doing well for the pedagogy modules cos I'm not good at writing essays(English ones of cos), they always pull my grades down... anyway, I sense that the Singapore Chinese class is going to be interesting as well as challenging, cos the tutor will be posing a lot of thought-provoking questions which requires critical thinking. Well, many people ask me why I did not choose the translation module, cos most of the Singaporeans in my class chose that, and all the Malaysians did not choose that... I really feel that my English is not up to the standard, I think my English is really below average, so I have no confidence to take the translation module... Am I one of the product of the so called ineffective bilingualism policy? Cos I dun think both my languages are proficient...

Back to School!

Week 1 of school has ended... My timetable isn't that fantastic, but since there's no Eng modules in the first week, it made my week better... Well, nothing much to look forward to the weekend also, perhaps goiong to watch Where Got Ghost with family on Sunday..

oh ya, and why havent my aaj331 tutorial group been allocated?? makes me still unable to decide which days to put my tuition on... sometimes, living for oneself will make a person happier... it sounds selfish, haha but i think this is to prevent oneself from getting hurt... maybe should think more for myself than for others? =p

Orchard!!!

Just went to Orchard Ion and shopped around, nothing much to buy cos it's all the branded stuff.. Finally satisfied my Subway craving earlier on haha too bad they didn't have peanut butter cookie.. Will be watching G.I Joe at 6pm at Lido later, so am rotting now at Starbucks. Tried looking for my Nekermann sandals at Robinsons but cant find... Cant use my 20 dollars voucher le... think will be going to Orchard Central later cos there's a photo exhibition...

School will be starting tomorrow, and my lesson will end at 7.30! Got 8.30 lesson on wed also, sianz,... Hopefully the new sem will be a great one! Just hope to maintain my GPA at least..

Happy Birthday Singapore!

Happy 44th Birthday Singapore!

Its National Day today, but I still got to head out to meet my supervisor early in the morning. Well its ok since I already predicted that it'll be a short meeting since I'm only supposed to observe during the 5 weeks and not doing any teaching.. So I shall stick to my 'story' and told him that I didn't teach or mark anything... After the meeting I just head home for lunch, then played card games with my family till evening time lol..

Watched the NDP parade on tv, and it was great! Much difference from the usual routine stuff.. After the NDP show, watched The Myth, and the story is still as touching, and I really loved the song hahah that explains why I chose it as my ringtone ya...

Hmm last evening went for dinner with family and Leo at City Plaza's Arnold's(its a Muslim operated fastfood restaurant that serves nice fried chicken!) though sinful and fattening, but the food was great! Even better than KFC! Well, thanks bro for fetching us to Tiong Bahru to watch the movie UP after dinner, most prob cos he see Leo's leg still haven't really recover... The movie was alright, not as good as I'd expected it to be, but generally still nice and cute...


Will be going to Orchard ION tomorrow with Leo! Yeah only passed by there with family last week, didn't really shop inside.. Shall go and explore the place tmr, as well as Orchard Central, if we have time... Hopefully his leg is ok already and won't hurt while he walks...


刚刚看完《神话》这部影片,是第二次看了,但仍然觉得很奇妙、很神奇。也许,两人之间的爱与缘份并不是偶然的。我认为并没有所谓的巧合,而是世间万物冥冥中早已有了安排,这就是命中注定吧。我坚信,没有人能够与命运对抗,或者应该说,没有人能够改变命运。既然上天已安排好了我们的行程,为何不坦然接受呢?前世姻缘,今世再续,是多么地浪漫啊!只要你认为生命是美好的,那就一定是!因为美好的事物由美好的心境应运而生,只要不放弃,即使并不是圆满结局,那又有何妨呢?

Happy 2 Years Anniversary Dear Leonard!



these are the tickets to the places we went to in Sentosa..


Its been 2 years, many many happy memories we had together... Of cos there are also unhappy memories, but its ok, we all learn and grow through mistakes =)

Had a great day today at Vivo+Sentosa! Meet up with Deary and we went crabbing at Nosignboard restaurant at Vivo city! Had chilli crab, sambal kangkong and a few other dim sum... The crab was great! haha really enjoyed ourselves feasting the crabbie...

After the sumptuous lunch, we proceed to Sentosa... we decided to go Underwater World, where there was a large crowd.. haha its nice to see all the fishes, now we can even touch the fishes in the tanks! and walking in the tunnel looking at the fishes is fun too! dunno why, but i love to see the stingrays swimming pass, esp if they swam at the top of the tunnel, then we can see their white body hahah.. well after that we went to dolphin lagoon to watch the nice dolphins perform.. the performance was great, but again, there was a huge crowd, mostly tourists, so it was very hot...

We then went for the Sky Luge + Sky ride! Deary was rather reluctant to try out the skyluge initially cos he's afraid that it'll be very fast and scary.. haha but luckily i said we should try, cos we got $3 off if we purchased both rides... yup so we tried, and it was fun! He even said he wan to try again! haha next time we'll go and play more times...

After that we went for a walk along the beach before waiting to watch Songs of the Seas.... took this at the beach, nearing sunset... its so nice...



i took few pics during Songs of the Seas with my phone, but i think this is the nicest.... the effects are really nice ^_^


so after the show, we take the skyride up to the Imbiah station to take the sentosa express... luckily we did that, hhaha cos the queue at the beach station(where the Songs of the Seas is at) is so long that think we need to wait for at least 3-4 trains lol... yup the skyride was fun too, but we still think the luge is more fun hahah...

yup then its back home! took some pics of our presents.. hahah so happy to receive the flowers+bear&choco from deary this morn... lol so much for the surprise haa its quite funny... and of cos, am delighted to receive this nice musical ferries wheel too!



yup and deary was holding his card and the glass personalised gift i made for him...


this was taken 2 days ago when i bought the guitar and brought to his house and gave him a surprise.. yup he just woke up hahha thats why he looks so seh... or is he too engrossed in his new toy? hahah he din even know that i took this pic of him..
