I have discovered a place that brings me shopping satisfaction equivalent to Wisma, Far East Plaza and Marina Square...

Chinatown Old People's Park Centre!!!

I spent over hundreds there in one hour. And before that I am already falling short on the amount of saving target I have set for myself.

The most dulan thing is... most of the amount spent is not on myself... Sobs... Noelle and me actually went there to shop for Hui's birthday present... And we saw a very sweet nice dress while walking past one shop... so decided to pop in and I got to be the sacrifice by trying on the dress to see if the fitting is nice. Asked the price and yup the dress still falls within the budget I have set for her present. And together with it I also bought myself a very nice black button top with frills on the sleeve. Super nice lar I super like. And only $27 so cheap. Can wear to office or match with skinny jeans over the weekend. Walked around and elle said hui mentioned to her before she wanted to get some stretchmark cream. There also alot of shops selling toiletries and related stuff, and there I go buying that for her.

Well that is not the worst. We further went down the lane and we saw one duper nice pants for her work atire. Very useful and easy to match, so even though I have already bought the dress and the cream, I endure the pain of separating the money with my pocket and bought her the pants. Total $100 0n her already. We further on went in to more shops and everything is nice for her leh! Still feel like buying more for her but pocket really cannot tahan already... See where to find so stupid friend like me... But bo bianz 9 years of friendship. Luckily in the end... sweet sweet Noelle eased my pain by a little by deciding to sponsor for the cream.

After that we went into a shop and I saw one dress that I really really like. (Actually wanted to buy for Hui also one, but dunno why in the end it turned out I was contemplating to buy for myself) haha. Because of the material the dress was quite pricey... 55 bucks. Spent so much already... So decided not to get the dress for myself. Her birthday is more important.

We shopped around for about one and half hours, and we only conquered one level. Luckily got time constraint, if not more damage will be done to my poor pocket. There really very nice to shop leh! Alot of nice dresses and tops. Next time I wanna go again!

We went up Fen's house and prepared the packaging of the prezzie before heading over to Hui's house. Sweet fen also bought a cake for her even though she is on super tight budget. Played a little prank and surprise for her. Hope she likes the things we have prepared for her.

Gal no matter what you do we will all be behind you. No matter what happens, you will never be alone to face the music. All of us want the best for you...

I hate Mondays where Tin Tin works night shift. Such day occurs once every month. Boo... He actually wanted to claim off for today so that he can accompany me... But full house. Disappointed.

Stayed over at his place on Friday night. Went HK cafe for supper after work. Dragged him there coz I was craving for the mushroom porridge. Hee hee. After supper went his house watch dvd. Slept after the show ended at 5.30 am. One thing I really don't feel comfortable is having to kuay sio on that tiny single bed(or mattress). Coz that without fail leaves me awake for the whole night. How to sleep in peace when I can find toss properly? I need ample space for my disgraceful sleeping posture. That's why I always tell him want kuay sio can, but before he really knock out must climb back up to his own bed and sleep. I really don't understand the fun of kuay sio-ing when he falls straight to sleep in the snap of the finger. After much nagging and showing temper, he really climb back up to sleep after like half an hour. Haha at that very instant I felt kind of guilty, but instead of sayang him, I pulled myself up from my bed and to his bed... to snatch his bolster for myself. Haha how terrible can a girlfriend be.

I am very particular about sleep. Didn't really sleep very well though and I knew he woke up early the next day but I continued to sleep. After some time, he came back in the room and started playing computer game. The CM game lar. Even though the game was not very noisy except from the frequent cheering, the clicking of the mouse irritates me to the max. Can't even sleep after he started playing the computer. About an hour of my sleep wasted. How to fall asleep with that constant click click click? Super buay zi dong. So I woke up in a super foul mood and didn't even want to talk to him. I simply hate people to disturb my sleep.

When I reached office, decided that it's pointless getting angry when he doesn't even know what I am so angry about. So I replied him when he messaged me, and told him why I was so pissed off. So end of quarrel. But I still hate it when people interupt my sleep and I can't fall back (to sleep). [Once my mum and brother talked so loud till I woke up and I ended up scolding my mum and flaring up] No matter who is it, I won't give face. Unless it is really the time for me to wake up, like for work, then it is justifiable. My sleep is very very important.

Sunday went ktv-ing with my hotlink without xiao hotlink Cyn. And Tin Tin joined us after his work. After ktv Tin Tin and me went Marina South arcade. Black beauty's headlight blew. And Tin Tin was so upset. He felt that she was handicapped. Then I told him human also will pua beh one mah. Furthermore the bulb also use for so long already of course will spoil lar.

We spent almost 4 hours there. Most of the time Tin Tin was playing the mahjong game. And we had lots of fun guessing the last chance card. Coz both of us always super salty one. Always choose the card beside the winning card. Left at 4am, and all was fine on CTE until the Yishun exit. Bloody hell whole Yishun raining lar. Quite heavy somemore. And I was the one wearing the jacket. So my poor Tin Tin had to brave all the chill and the splattering of the raindrops. Super heartpain him lar. He so skinny already how to tahan? Did a frail attempt to shed his body from the rain by covering it with my hand. Cannot help much I know, but at least better than nothing lar. Wah the raindrop landing on bare skin is super painful can. My poor baby. Anyway, luckily the traffic was quire smooth and we didn't have to wait for red light under the rain like two stupid fools. And I was only a little wet thanks to the jacket, but my Tin Tin was all wet. Told him to park black beauty in the car park but he just stopped at the car porch. I know he didn't want go up my house lar. But I cannot understand why. What's wrong with just drying yourself up in a confined area before proceeding the rest of the journey home? He rather shiver like a skinny wet chicken under the pouring rain with icy cold wind blowing. I offered to bring him a dry top from my house. At first he rejected. I asked again and after some hesitation he agreed. Tried asking him to park the bike at the carpark and go when the rain gets lighter. Still don't want. I think maybe he scared my mummy wake up lar. He very scared of my mum one. Haha.

So I scattered upstairs and change to dry clothing, grab a t-shirt that is able to fit him, brought along a hand towel for him to dry his body, and made a cup of hot lipton tea for him. After he changed into the t-shirt I tugged the hand towel on his collar, as another protective layer from the rain. And he looked like a small kid waiting for mummy to feed him cereal. Haha. When he saw the hot tea I made for him. He very gam dong leh. Dunno why. He said coz he can feel the love and concern. Wah over a cup of hot tea also can derive so much. He very cute one lar. And he himself made sure that he finished the tea. So funny.

He is always so appreciative over those little things I do for him. So sweet. Maybe because I seldom do things like that. And he treat it like gold. Keke. That's why, cannot treat men too nice, if not all the nice things you do become worthless. Long long do one time, and he will see you as an angel. Hahaha.

Very broke now. I lost a total of $330 in one week coz of mahjong. Damn sad lar. Anyway, I went for a haircut. My fringe irritates me more than ever. Just losing Tin Tin by a margin. But due to vanity, I lun!!!



This haircut costs me another 44 bucks. The most expensive haircut I went for. But never mind lar heck. Anyway I also long long one time cut my hair.

Saturday knocked off very late. 9 plus. Then meet Tin Tin and he brought me to Sakae Teppanyaki for dinner. The food is nice lor. I love the chawanmushi. Make on the spot. And they uses the whole onion as a bowl for the steamed egg. How innovative!


My beef set. Consist of beef, assorted mushroom, chawanmushi, tofu steak, and some liver.


His chicken set. Consist of chicken (his FAV), salmon, assorted mushroom, tofu steak, and big oyster.

The only bad thing is they used too much garlic to fry with the mushroom. Thus the mushroom only taste of garlic. And I don't like garlic...

The meal cost him around 50 bucks I guess...

After that went Crix's house for mahjong. But the amount won is not even enough to cover 10% of what I lost the night before lor. sulks...

Sunday was a fun day. Had my Hotlink outing. After work we went to eat Hainanese Chicken rice at Selegie. After that we went Mind's Cafe to play boardgame. Had a crazy time over there. I almost laugh till I died.


Games...


Fierce Hotlink and Xiao Hotlink with menu


Me and Lady Boss


Gang Leader concentrating on the game...


Wendy being careful not to drop the monkeys...


Me and Wendy kenna forfeit...


Too bad Mind's cafe closes early on Sunday - 11p.m, so even though we had not enough fun we had to leave. Took a bus to Cine and wanted to catch movie. No nice movie with suitable timing and after much discussion we settled for LAN game. First time play LAN game lor. Cyn's idea. She taught us how to play. We played a simple game call Kitty Run Kitty. A game of speed, risk and teamwork. If one kitty dies others have to save him before carrying on the journey. It took us a few times to get the hang of it and finally when all of us managed to get to round 2, time's up and computer was shut off. Very stingy... Then we went to Hongkong cafe for snacks. The mushroom porridge is super super yummy! Still feel like eating whenever I think of it. Went there and joke around till their closing at 3a.m and went downstairs.


Full force at Hongkong cafe

We stil don't feel like ending the day and so thinking of other places to go but we keep drifting off the topic and started talking about everything else. Till 4a.m, Amanda was very tired and all of us went home. Lousy lar Amanda. Haha.

We also took some photos on Friday night while we were still in office.




In this pic, Colin said Cynthia's arm look like gigantic finger while Amanda said the arm look like jiam tau Roti. Wah I laugh till can die lor. And they were making me laugh like hell before snapping the pic. That explains my extremely gleeful expression.


Cyn, Amanda, Rachel

The crazy gang is driving me nuts! Especially that Cynthia and her always unexpected actions.

I think I am mad already. Tuesday went Chris' house after work and played 3 poks of mj. Started at 2 a.m ended at 9a.m... Took some breaks in between. Reached home at 10 and fell flat on the bed.Woke up 3 plus go work. Woke up feeling damn goggy and told myself to go home early after work. Already set my mind not to go Mambo. Then bloody hell I knock off at 11pm. When meeting Tin Tin never knock off so early. Don't feel like going home so early as Tin Tin is busy at work and no time to chat over the phone with me. Sad. So I went Mambo... Left at 3 plus and reach home 4 plus...

Thought I would be tired! No!!! Despite not sleeping yesterday night and having only 5 hours of sleep this morning I am now still freaking awake! So awake that I still find mood to blog and chat with my Tin Tin. I think I am slowly killing myself. Sort dio already... Robotic me!

I just came back from a relative's wedding dinner at Orchard Parade Hotel. It was only on the way there when I decided to ask my mum's whose wedding was it. It was my mum's cousin. So called my 表叔 la. 47 years old already finally found the right one to tie the knot.

Some dishes were yummilicious. As our table only got 7 persons, all of us get to eat extra! I like! I even have 2 bowls of shark fin fish maw soup. Thinking about it now still makes me drool...


My sis playing Mario before dinner starts. She sucks at it. Even more terrible than me at playing Mario.. And that's my mum sitting next to her.

My sis

I ask my sis to chop off my arm coz I think I look fat...

2 bah gehs... Haha.

The don't look at all alike sisters...

The look alike sisters... My 2 ah yi(s)...

Yum Seng ceremony... My stupid sis says the groom looks like my Tin Tin, skinny and tall... So maybe that's how Tin Tin will look like if we dang dang dang dang...

One more shot leh.. I hate my nose leh. But I love the colour of my lips... No lip gloss no lip colour...

Me face very round...

In the toilet...

She insisted on taking pic with that bowl of dry petals...

Camwhoring in toilet...

The dinner started late but ended early... I was totally famished at 9pm (lucky I ate some rice at home) and the 8 course dinner ended at 10.15pm. Very fast for wedding dinner lor. I guess maybe coz it's a Monday so they try to end everything early.

My ah yi ask me when is my turn. I replied not so fast. She told me she thinks among all the children she 看好 me to be the first one to get married. Haha. * stare blankly at Tin Tin and shrug

I am getting bored about my hair. I want a new hairstyle. And my hair is getting too thick. Half a year never cut hair already. I want to cut hair!! After this week perhaps. After all my students are done with their exams. I have tuitions 3 times this week. *fainting

Sometimes I wonder, am I really that hard to get along with? Some simple gestures can lead to huge quarrels. I don't know why. I met him on Friday and Sunday. Both occasions we also quarrelled. Sianz. Both instances also wui dio bo liao stuff. Friday because he missed me and he can't stop the car in time to pick me up and therefore must go one big round twice. Sunday even more stupid. He use his fingers and dig his teeth and after that I die also dun want hold his hand coz dirty and he insisited to hold.

One thing I really don't like. Why quarrel also must bring other matters in to add the fire? 我认为一件事对一件事. But he always like to lump everything together and quarrel. And Sunday that matter 明明 is not my fault. At first he say he not angry. But clearly I can tell he is. So I ask him don't like that. He still acted as before. So I pek chek ask him then why he give that fucked up attitude. Then he even angrier. And 来了lor. Then when we started to quarrel he admitted at first he really was angry. But when I confronted him he not angry already. See! In the very first place let me know he angry不就好了lor! And after that I cannot remember how we got so heated up lar. He kept asking what I want. I just don't want to quarrel lor. He mentioned that whenever we quarrel he must be the one to bow down and talk to me first. I am like a princess and he ma chiam like slave. Wah lan he use the word slave leh. Now then I know how he actually think. Fine lor I don't want to be princess anymore. Everything I also do myself. I am not gonna rely on him anymore. 免得next time kenna say again. I want to be strong!

Tin Tin sent me home early today. He is on course tomorrow. We just went for dinner with his parents and went to the newly opened ice cream shop at Holland V named Cold Bar. Concept of this Cold Bar is pretty interesting. First choose the flavours of the ice cream and then choose the mix ins... Apart from the old school chocolate fudge, peanut crunch and chocolate rice, they have interesting ones like gummy bears, marshmallows, Tim Tam biscuits, chocolate balls etc. Over 20 selections for you to choose. But per mix in is one dollar. Me and Tin Tin ordered the large one. We were able to choose 2 flavours for which Rum and Raisin (His top top Fav) and Ferero were chosen, and we took gummy bears and marshmallow as mix ins. Ordered another drink called Mango A Go-go. Catchy name isn't it? All cost us (or rather him. keke) $17. We just wanted to give it a try as it is something new la.

After that we walked back to his home and slack till 11 plus before he sent me back.

Here is a shot of my Tin Tin. Taken on my birthday. Guess where he is? Toilet!!! Haha. Toilet of the hotel room in New Majestic Hotel.



Damn artistic shot right?

Baby when are we going back there? I love love love the concept leh. One night 300 bucks ... kua kua... That's even more expensive than Grand Copthorne or Swissotel.

The two of us went to catch I pronounce you Chuck and Larry last week. Nice funny comedy. The was one scene where both the male leads had to go to Canada to register their marriage. That was very funny lar. But that's besides the point. The point is in the movie they shot the Niagara Falls. It's damn magnificent la. At first I was wondering what was it that is so nice. Then I think think think... Canada... So should be Niagara Falls la. Then I told Tin Tin I wanna go there next time. He dun wan to hiu me leh... So evil... *pouts

Today is our 16th month anni. 不知不觉 I am together with this boy for 16 months already. Like so fast. Still remember the time he asked me to be his girlfriend. Very cute leh he. Still can remember that he was damn nervous lor. Hahahahahaha.

I still remember vividly the day he first know me. So timid. Then after that call and talk to me. Talked for a short while only as I was cutting my birthday cake. Next day call and talk to me again. First meeting with him was at Bukit Batok. I ended school and went for tuition. After tuition wanted to go home and just nice he msged me. And don't know how we agreed to go town for movie since he was near Bukit Batok. Sent his then RVF for some servicing. Told me to wait awhile for him at Westmall and he will come and pick me up. But hor, he made me wait for an hour la. But that time not close with him mah. So gong gong never make noise. Actually after he reached and I was walking to meet him, I was kind of nervous leh. Coz he usually sees me when lighting is not good. And that day go school I was not wearing any makeup and I wore until damn lok kok leh. Totally cannot make it jio dio liao lar. Scared he sees me think I buang lor. Met him and went up his bike. Aiyo I tell you it was my first time sitting a racing bike. Must bend until so low and I felt I can fly off anytime. Scared until like dunno what. But don't dare tell him lar. He told me can hold his oil tank but hor not familiar with him and scared bend too close to him kenna eat tofu mah.(although not much to eat la) So I rather gan kor also don't want to hold his oil tank. Haha. But my knees kiap his hips till damn tight I think he can feel it lor. But only diam diam. And tell you something damn funny, I kiap so tight until next day I wake up my thigh kenna muscle ache leh.

Second time met up with him was in town. AND HE MADE ME WAIT FOR 2.5 HOURS. Coz rain and he cannot ride bike. And again I gong gong sit at the heeren fountain there and wait for him. He is the first guy who made me wait for so long lor. Haha but never mind, the past 16 months have been payback time for him. But of coz I also not purposely because first 2 dates he made me wait and do such revengeful things on him lar. I just can't be punctual lar. Hee hee.

The wind now is so strong. I think is gonna rain soon. Shiok for me to sleep lar. I like cuddling and wrapping myself under the blankets, like a pupa. Ok off to sleep. Hope this week will be a smooth week for me. Bye!

Past week had been so packed up. Until I don't have the time to breathe. Finally there is one day that I can go home early and have some time of my own.

Went for a 3 day 2 night chalet with my gals early this week. It's nice to really have time to sit down, just the 4 of us and filling each other with our grumblings and whinings.

Pictures will be uploaded once I have found my forever missing camera. Took a few photos before the battery pronounced itself dead.

After checking out on Wednesday morning I went home and had a short nap before waking up for work. Afer work still went Mambo. God I really don't know where I got the energy from. Woke up early next day again for erm... Isetan Private Sale. Hee hee hee. Not much damage this time round. I spent a total of 90 bucks on 2 bras, one Mango top and one m)phosis bag. Though I don't really need all of the above. Haha. But I told myself I MUST buy something if not I 对不起自己.

After work went arcade with Tin Tin.

Friday woke up early again as I have a fortune telling appointment. Shan't go into the details of the tellings but it was quite an eye opener and interesting talk as this is my first time having my life anaylsed. After work met up with Tin Tin as he claimed off, and both of us can't think of anything to do and in the end we went home and watch a super boring movie called The Last Dance. (Or One Last Dance can't remember) Tin Tin was the one who wanted to watch the show, as I all along don't take fancy on this sort of shows. In the end, he was the one who fell asleep while watching. I kept forcing him to keep his eyes opened but in vain. So I 干脆ask him to stop the show and sleep.

Saturday went work and met up with Hui and Tin Tin in search for my little sis present. Whole of Heeren doesn't sell Roxy wallet. Had Pastamania for dinner, and headed on the Crix's house to play that one pok of mahjong. Went home and sleep after that.

How my life is getting boring!! Argh... I want to go overseas.....................

Sometimes I really think that 9 out of 10 guys are jerks and bastards. It's either that they can't have just one woman at a time in their life, or that they fucking have attittude problems. I think their pea sized brains have been flushed down the toilet bowl together with their sai. No guy will be as perfect as the male lead casts on Taiwanese dramas. Dream on man!

So far Tin Tin has been no jerk or bastard. He has been a good 10th guy till now. 虽然没样貌又没钱，但是至少他没做对不起我的事，也没有乱发神经。At least he truly care for me and my well being. I ought to be contented.

It really pains me to see my girls cry. You know like it really aches in the heart. Yet you feel like you can't do anything for them except to be by their side, see them cry, and say words that don't really help. Why do my friends have to go through all these? However on a lighter note, hope these can make them a stronger person. Just a mere thought of their situation and flashes of them weeping makes me feel like crying too. 真的好心痛。
