Christmas!

Christmas is always a wonderful festival. Because it
1. falls in the long holidays,
2. the weather is cooling/raining giving the cooling and soothing atmosphere,
3. the streets and roads are decorated with happy lights,
4. people exchange presents,
5. time for feasting.

This year it is special. It's the first time we did a Christmas party. It was held at CP's Bukit Timah Condo. There was CP (of cos), Marvin, YX, Von, JH, Mr A1 and Mr A2. There was lotsa food - pizza, fishball, turkey, chocolates, log cake, ice cream and tidbits. There was majong, poker cards and jigsaw. CP's house is REALLY nice. What I missed out was the Christmas lights in Orchard.





JH's present for me. It included this nice card with my wired-name. I feel so guilty not putting enough effort for my presents.



CP's present for me. Snow globe that has a button that keeps the snow flying all over. Special!



Von's present for me. Paper bag charm. LOL. The real thing is not ready yet... so she printed the design on paper and put into a nice box. Fainted when I opened it.

Marvin gave me a really nice pen holder. Just in time for use in school.



Our log cake from Taka Basement 2. Nice cake!!

It was a great get-together. Too bad Von had stomache and didn't sleep over with us. Only JH and I stayed over.

Looking forward to parties and gatherings!

X'mas party is coming up at CP's house!! I'll be in charge of making sandwiches, fishballs and deep-fried chicken wings. Woohoo!! I don't mind the hastle, cos' it's worthwhile preparing for luscious food!!!! *Dripping saliva* I'm a good cook I must say. I've got common sense for cooking food. HAHA!

Marvin will be in charge of turkey, JH and Von will be in charge of the Christmas Tree and deco! Haha! But I'll be doing shopping together with them coming Wed! Oh man! Great! CP will be providing his house to us, a Condo in BUKIT TIMAH! *gasp* He will buy log cake. Heh. *drools*

And CP hates eating spaggetti!! WHY?? Spaggetti is so nice loh! I mean minus the not-nice ones la. And home-made spaggetti is good! Remember you have to get Prego's spaggetti sauce, or Leggo's Carbonara sauce. Mix them with minced meat, tomatoes, mushrooms.... then finally add a dash of herbs and olive oil! Oh man! Why didn't he know how to appreciate spaggetti? Sigh.

Carey told me she WILL be going back Rengam for CNY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can you believe it? I was already preparing myself not to be able to see the silly "kali-doi" for CNY 07. Looks like now I have something to look forward to. Carey I MISS U A LOT!



The one in red is "kali-doi". And the rest are my cousins. CNY is so fun, cos I get to see my cousins. Taken in CNY 06.

I hope to have more taken in CNY 07. Hope to see Carey soon!

There has been so many questions to me from others: Why didn't you convert to be Singaporean?

Besides the latest change in lowering PR's and foreigners medical subsidies, no edusave, no Singapore Shares, non-requirement for VISAs to many countries, list me some benefits I can have. I might consider. The feeling of stucked in between is bad. Where do I belong?

Old Things

While packing my room, I found this:



PSLE receipt!! The signature is of course not mine. It's my form teacher's Ms Lee Bee Horng. Wow... I still remember her full name! The number "6" on the right corner is my register number.

HAHA! I keep lotsa rubbish.

End of NIE

Ever since the end of NIE courses, I've been slacking at home. Worst of all, I've been mapling and watching Korean soap dramas.

I finished watching My Girl:



I like the ending... Haha! Another shuai ge in the show. I always feel that pictures doesn't really show the shuai-ness, it's always during the show, that I feel they are shuai! Perhaps they have what they called - CHARISMA!

Second show that I watched is Sassy Girl - Chun Hyang:



An easy to watch drama, not soapy enough though. I thought the ending was a bit draggy. But it's quite nice to watch!

Third show - Snow White (aka Sweet Love):



I don't like the ending!!!! Why didn't she end up with the shuai ge? Haiz!

In progress - Which Star Are You From?



The male lead is the one from Love At Harvard. I think he is a good actor! Another one of the charismatic guys!!

JB Trip

Woke up early this morning... meeting Bao, Mic, MC and Phil. We are going JB to shop, eat and do nails. From Bugis, we took the Singapore-JB Express over to JB. The customs was considered smooth. Then we walked over to City Square where we waited an hour for Phil to meet us. We were so super hungry, and hurried to an eating place. So we chose this - Hong Kong Kim Gary Restaurant at B2. We waited a while for our table cos' it was quite packed! Business is good! There is also a newly opened outlet at Vivo City.

And guess who is the spokesperson for the restaurant? It's Huang Zhong Ze!!



He is so dashing loh!!!

And so... prepare some tissue for ur dripping saliva... here's what we ate:


MC ate fish fillet spaggetti in corn sauce.

Phil ate this pork chop in hot stone. It's very delicious and value for money.

I ate this fried chicken wings in ramen in typhoon shelter style. Quite spicy with lotsa fried garlic as garnishings. Tasty wor. And it's a VERY big bowl. Mic had something similar, except his was pork chop instead of chicken wings.

Bao had this - Nissan Chu1 Qian2 Yi4 Ding1 noodles. ZZZ. So not worth it. I also know how to cook this.

And I forgot to take a picture of our mango ice dessert!!!! Delicious! And very filling!!

After which, we took teksi(taxi) to Holiday Inn Plaza. It should cost you only RM$6. Don't get cheated. There, the girls did our nails, and the guys went for body massage. I did pedicure-spa, cost RM$100. Bao and MC did manicure and pedicure. Bao even added the 3D decorations on her toes. HAHA! NICE!

I bought 2 posters there!! Rain's one!!! HAHA! The shop didn't have Hacken Lee's one.

Shop location: Wumeng Enterprise. Holiday Plaza. Jalan Dato Sulaiman. Taman Century. Top floor.
Tel: 07-334 7450





Besides these 2, I got a third one for my friend - her favourite Goong poster. Total cost for 3 posters was RM$27. She gave me only $3 discount. Nevertheless, I was happy with the posters as they are big!!

It was already 7pm when we left Holiday Plaza. We took teksi again to Taman Sri Tebrau (Da4 Ma3 Hua1 Yuan2) for dinner. Teksi should cost you RM$5. We ordered steamed fish, da4 tou2, sambal kang kong, black pepper crab, chilli crab and hotplate toufu. The fish wasn't nice. We ordered red garoupa, but it came a black one instead. Felt cheated. When we asked the aunty, she said, "It's red garoupa." Duh. Like we don't know the skin should be red instead of black. We didn't pursue the matter. I just felt that the price we paid, we could have gotten better food in JB. I won't go there again.

Took cab to customs. RM$6. Mic bought the Ramlee burger there. We stood there and eat. RM$2 vs S$2. HAHA! Same burger, different price. Reached home about 11pm. ZZZ. A day spent without slacking at home! HAHA!
