weird english

just curious...

why would someone 'drop' an e-mail to me? Seems like it's a norm to mention that. would it drop from the sky? why not 'throw' instead? then i'll 'catch' the e-mail. heeheehee

oh i like my tutor for this internship :)

sharing session

there are so many good movies out there recently!

and i finally caught 'he's just not that into you' with the quartet aka band gang yesterday night =D we finally met up after (a month?) some time and it seems quite long! so much to talk about, so much to joke about. hahaha i do miss these times, hope we will always have such bonding sessions and like what vick said, "you guys are so silly but i love you still!" aww

the movie's hilarious though! true, some stuff might not apply to asian countries as much as it does in the west, but the gist is definitely there. :D quite enlightening, and the quick poll i gave out after the movie confirmed that everyone yearns for the same situation as a particular couple in the movie.

friday was then spent working, then hopping to jazz@south bridge celebrating two of the galers' birthdays =) pictures will come along with elaboration soon! can't believe we actually finished the whole bottle just by playing games and stuff haha and their bangers and mash dish is really savoury! go try!

and little miss jing is finally embarking on her i-want-a-driving-license plan. yay! test's date in april, not that far actually. where's my TYS??

**have a good trip back bing!! take care dude!

Listed girls

yesterday when i had this long conversation with reina at shaw centre's mac cafe (it's a very nice place to chill out with the perfect music to keep the tempo going and yet in a leisure pace), we found out some pretty similar traits in guys (ask me directly if you wanna know haha) and it was hilarious!

glad we had a chance to talk about everything that has been happening, comforting each other and basically keeping our spirits up! :)

and today was the start of my new tuition in boon lay (hooray for short trips from school) and boy, secondary school students ARE stressed. okay, maybe elite school students. don't know whether is it a privilege to be piled with so much work (with practically no guidance at all) or is it a punishment. it's so hard to have a life with the stuff they have to do! and they are doing uni-like stuff! ahhh i feel life in uni is so much easier! that is quite sad. looking at the way my tutee mugs, I have this sudden urge to strive hard in my work. tsk. by the time their generation graduates, I think my rice bowl is so gonna suffer.

yes, it's the kaisu syndrome acting up. maybe one day i'll throw in the towel, migrate to the padi fields and just grow rice for the rest of my life. hahaha! able to figure out the pun?

all at one shot

I've been really lazy these weeks. after meeting so many people and taking so many pictures, i still haven't got the motivation to post them up haha!

But now I do! =D after talking to wanwei today, I realised I do depend on my blog to recall my memories because I have an auto memory clean-up programmed brain. Like, there are certain things I will not remember after awhile and it takes very long to jog my memory as I tend to forget them after its over. well, of course I remember things that impact me strongly, but day-to-day events, erm not really. haha. so when we were wondering what did we do for last year's valentine's day, we had no recollection at all, so I decided to search through my archives and realised I didn't talk much about what happened! I only had a dubious entry on how I'm very sorry towards my friends, but I forgot why! oh man, next time I shall write everything in detail. But then there's the problem about the whole wide world knowing (and reading) this. I bet someone can stalk me for life just by pouring over all my archives.

so... maybe a secret blog? too troublesome though. maybe a written diary then. but then i don't forsee myself writing in it everyday. i'll still procrastinate. haha

for now, let me just make my entries as detailed (and unconfusing) as possible.

ops. I think after 3 weeks of not posting up my photos, i can't get the chronological order right.

Let's group them according to people then! =D


Miss STM aka wanwei aka study buddy aka roomie aka gym partner aka the person i talk most to and who talks most back


Photobucket
marina sq dinner on monday. wanted to meet to discuss what to do for our host mom's gift, but didn't get around to doing it eventually. but we did talk a lot (as usual) and i did an analysis for her regarding some smses! hahaa. it was fun :D


and so she's my valentine's date for this year! =) though we both have our shares of misses, perhaps things are this way for a reason. don't you agree too, reina? haha! glad that at least i'm remembered. =)


Photobucket
I made truffles! (with blueberries)


Photobucket
@ topone. the system's faulty though, kept restarting on us, and made us re-key the songs we want. urgh. oh i tried to take a picture of our reflection but I guess it didn't work.

Photobucket
ohhh this is extremely hilarious and ridiculously embarrassing! we were taking the continuous shots infront of the TV, and this server standing outside saw us making funny faces at the camera!! i refused to look at him when we stepped out of the room, i bet he's smirking away.

dinner's at MOF in bugis (swarming with couples) and we got really excited in kinokuniya after that 'cos there are so many books we wanted to read but didn't purchase any as we kinda know we don't have much time to read them anyway. still, i might buy some tomorrow! occupies me on my train rides to work heh.


Photobucket

joyce's 21 party on the 30th Jan @ aloha loyang! the place is secluded like anything, but the space of it all is astounding. i wouldn't mind having a chalet there. too bad it's only for civil servants. anyway, my main motive of this pic is to remember that her swensens cake was very delicious!

(offer ends on 16 feb, you still have time to book!) i do hope we won't meet with typhoons though it will be rather exciting. =P the thuoght of travelling makes me happy. among other things heh!

HAHA. which then explains this picture. but lala laughed out loud before the picture could be properly taken! and i look so stoned.
