Sweetest Dream

It was such a wonderful dream last night. It was a clear night, and the surroundings looked like Istana Park except there was more people walking around. Somehow, I didn't have money to pay the taxi driver to send my dead boyfriend to hospital. And I don't know why was he dead in the swimming pool in the park! And the driver waited by the roadside for me to get money to pay him. I was lost, sad, and gan chiong cos' the taxi driver didn't want to move unless I pay him! After approaching some passerby, there was finally a willing guy who was kind enough to help me pay the driver. He was tall, well-built, well-dressed and handsome! Just the kind of perfect guy every girl dreams of! Then he piggy-back me back to his home. I cried sadly over his broad shoulders. He was so kind and I thought he liked me.

We reached his condo... there was a gift shop upon stepping into his condo area. There was this smiley face red plushy that I can change its facial expressions just like plasticine, except this is a plushy. I hinted to him I wanted this to cheer me up. He didn't want to buy, and ran home! He ran pretty fast!

I didn't know which unit he stayed so I sat outside the shop didn't know where to go next. Then I don't know why I met his sister and she brought me up to their home. The next day I woke up, he came into the room and was surprised to find me inside. He didn't sleep the whole night because he felt guilty leaving me at the shop. He apologised and gave me a super big black and white doggie soft-toy which was like almost the same size as me! I was touched. Then he gave me his name card. His name was Paul and works in a jewellery shop. His dad is the shop owner. Feeling really touched, but yet it was time to go home, I said good bye to him. He was sad to see me leave too. After saying the good bye, I woke up. -_-

Well, dreams are always this wierd. I wonder if there's a hidden meaning behind this dream. What a nice guy! And I met him in my dreams... *duh*

House Warming

Went to Savannah Park yesterday for Zhong Hao's housewarming. I walked from my house, and took me 35 minutes! I didn't realise it was so far away! His house was small, a typical condo size, 3 room one. The kitchen is small, bedrooms are small, and living room small! But enough for a couple, not for a family. Plus the walking distance to Simei MRT is far! And no public transport to the MRT. SO inaccessible without a car!

I was really glad he liked the gifts we got for him. I shopped from 1-5pm for his presents on Friday. After school on Friday, I went down to Taka departmental store. Got a card there. And found no gifts appropriate. Then went down to City Link and Suntec to look. After spending a lot of time there, I got a Galileo Galilie thermometer from Ig's Heaven. It works with special liquid inside, and glass bubble-balls which will sink or float according to the surrounding temperature. But I don't know what is the mechanism behind it, and what kind of special liquid it uses. It's very interesting and uniquely-designed! There was a very nice pig clock, but after consulting some friends, a clock was not very appropriate afterall. And there was this shop in Suntec where I wanted to get a set of china, the salesperson was so bad! First time I walked into the shop, she was on the phone chatting over some drama serials. I went for late lunch, and went back to the shop. The girl was sitting behind the counter. She obviously didn't care about anyone who walked into the shop. What a bad attitude!

Then I went to TM to look for other gifts since my budget was about $100. Another 2 hours there choosing over crystal-wares, glass vases, wine glasses, wine racks, glass containers, electrical hot flasks, coffee set, tea set....etc. It was such a headache. In the end, I got him a coffee set, cos I think I remembered he likes drinking coffee. Overall spent for his presents were $107. Luckily ZH liked them. What a relieve! My efforts paid off! His wife likes Hacken too! Wahaha!!

I went home, very very tired. That night still went for SSO's Mozart concert at VCH. They played really well, just like a CD record playing! Very good ensemble-ship!

HAPPY CNY 2006!!!

It's CNY again!! This year didn't have my prawn crackers, nor mamee, nor packet crysanthenum tea!!! But ate a lot of nasi lemak, and tried the curry mee there! Red packets are as usual in RM$. Had a really nice CNY this year because CNY falls on a Sunday!! It's the first time me and my cousins meet up for so long! Besides this, I even had my hands on 3-legged majong under the tutelage of my paternal grandma! I think it's even more fun than 4-legged majong! Coming back to Singapore was a problem. We came back on the night 2 days before school started but there was still jam at the Woodlands checkpoint! It was SUCH a long queue, my Dad reversed and drove the wrong-way out to the main road to avoid the jam. We then proceeded to Tuas checkpoint. But we missed the exit along N-S expressway and ended up near Senai. It was another half hour back to the exit. It was quite good at the Malaysia customs, but once over it, it started to jam way before the halfway point of the causeway. We departed from Renggam at 10pm, and reached home at 130am!!!

Finally got my hands on Photoshop, and learnt something. Though it's not related to what I'm going to handup for ICT module, the knowledge is needed. So how's the photo gif on the left column? Hehe! Of cos, besides this, I did more. Now, I'm clueless about what to do for my assignment. It has got to be related to what I'm going to teach in the future. Ideas anyone?
