Close up

And we went back for our event, NDOC ! Though we cldn’t see it through to the very last week, was quite happy to see our one month of effort materialise before us. Many thanks to eileen, who probably suffered a lot during the last week =P

With some of the colleagues

With our very nice and cheery DD who always buy us goodies and got us our cute lil lunch pouches.

And her cute baby ! (who looks like he’s struggling to get out of my 魔掌muahahhaha)

The interns. I just realised we all have very different hairstyles. Reveals something about our characters no ?

With Viv! who has been baking yummies for us

Back in the office…

This is where i work

Outside of the building we started taking pics at every windows of different colours..

And at the last window i’ve only got one word to say: HOT.

One last pic of the colourful building.

Which we spent a large part of our summer in, working, freezing, eating, laughing, rushing, dozing off, chatting, dieting, making silly blunders, achieving, researching, gossiping, bonding and many manys.

Oh and guess what they got me on the last day:

Giving my daily nescafe a run for its money.

Dreaming of summer

Just a short update ! Since i haven’t been posting up much pictures lately. Went down for our storybook exhibition at Old School yesterday evening =)

The set up’s quite interesting cos they dangled all the children storybooks in the air along with uniforms and toys. Although chris (who was involved in the setup) told me later that the intital plan to hang uniforms alone is kindda creepy at night so they added in the toys hahaha

And of cos our nm2208 baby, Corey and HER mane !

One with the project mates, Naomi and Irving. Pity Jonathon wasn’t here though, otherwise we would have a complete pic.

The long loooooooooooooooong flight of stairs leading to old school, which fortunately we do not have to climb cos we CABBED. (i dunnoe which is worse)

J’s treat. He claims it’s the BEST YUMMIEST brownie in sg. I think he doesn’t know i’m a self-proclaimed food critic.

BUT, in all honesty, it’s not bad =) the brownie has a really chewy and dense texture (i hate hate HATE dry and crumbly brownies) and is not overly sweet. Plus point for serving it warm, becos in my opinion, brownies shld ALWAYS be served sweet and warm.

Love the toasted marshmallows on top, though i feel that the chocolatey flavour could have been richer and more intense. Maybe combining Mrs Field’s and P.Osh would make for my favourite brownie.

Oh and add a scoop of vanilla ice cream and some hershey’s chocolate sauce…

Becos i have gotten so much stuff lately, i had to keep them organised. So…nothing like baskets from daiso to solve the problem =)

Ok really gotta do my video assignment now !

Corey goes public

We made pineapple tarts on thurday and they turned out good. Was fun but bit tiring cos we took so long to get them all done. Think we made abt 90+ in total among the 3 of us. Photos to be up next week. Up next, sushi !

Gotten a piece of news to be happy about yest. Our NM2208 storybook project is chosen to be exhibited at the CNM upcoming exhibition at the Old School ! The one we worked on till 2am at the deck haha. I’m proud of us =D

Classes this sem seem to be interesting but rather challenging for some. And i can’t seem to focus fully on the readings as of yet. I call it the first week syndrome. Hmm the MNO Time Journal is starting to make guilt creeps up.

Update as of 11pm:

I did my readings for about half an hour ? =P

Ended up doing a fair bit of spring clearing instead. I think i cut out ard 30 pieces of clothing from my wardrobe. Now, i truly wonder…How on earth did i accumulate so much clothes ?? The last time i did the clearing i took out like 50 pieces. So why does my wardrobe still look full now ? Just the other day i think i threw away 2-3 pairs of shoes. Umm…i’m not exactly a shopaholic right.

And now my cupboards looks so much neater and organised. The table area got a lot more spacious too. Clearing and rearranging my stuff always makes me feel better. Gives a similar therapeutic effect like baking. If only feelings and thoughts can be organised that way…throw away the unwanted ones, and keep the positive.

Lei came over and gave me a really pretty gold necklace just now. Heh was a belated christmas present. So sweet =)
