Red sofas at Old School

Caught ‘Cages’ at Sinema. First time there and i must say i loooooove the layout of the place ! It was rows after rows of red comfy sofa. We can totally lie down on a sofa each. The film was good.

Us at Old School on a friday night.

The steep flight of stairs. oh but i like this pic. Headed to Wala after the movie to join some cuhk ppl…funny how i always hear the same band play everytime i’m there.

Heh there’s been a sudden reduction in photo size cos i don’t wanna scare u guys with a BIG pic of me suddenly. This was sometime back in week 2, when mich and i still had the luxury of enjoying TTTT.

Peranakan buffet ! The kuehs looks good but they taste…normal haha.

And then it was shopping ! Didn’t get anything much, think i spent more money online recently heh.

Sigh, with the onslaught of test and assignment deadlines i won’t think i’d the mood or time to blog more. So this space might be neglected unless hmm something…exciting happens.

Wear sunscreen

Learn to appreciate more, and say yes more.(in the right scenario)

Know that you are happy just the way you are now. You wouldn’t know how good you had it until it’s gone.

Stop complaining and start appreciating.

And you guys should totally watch this.

 

 

The race is long and, in the end, it’s only with yourself.

Late night pizza & Strawberry margarita

Here’s some random pics, becos it’s my free day and i’m doing things to procastinate starting on my readings.

Our ‘manly’ night out at Harry’s 2 weeks back.

Trust me, the pizza is HUUUUUUUUUGE. and yummy.

No, not at the pizza. At the GOAL on the screen.

I would call this pic…pensive.

Somebody spilled Strawberry margarita on my nails yesterday.

Reality Check.

Missing my loooong brown locks. I’m just not a short, black hair kindda girl. boo. Anyway i tracked back and realised the last time i got a dye job was ard the start of december 2008. That is like, ard 8-9 mths ago?

I feel stupid looking at my readings and not understanding what the lines and pages of words are all abt. Makes me feel retarded and unmotivated.

Shall make a trip to the library to return my books…since it’s so hard to sit down and concentrate anyway.

First week of school makes me feel OLD. But timetable this sem seems to be good, so no complains abt that.

Red, white, pineapple tarts

Baked again ! Pineapple tarts this time round, am quite pleased with them, having received a fair bit of compliments, so here’s some BIG pics of them haha. Guess they’ll appear again the coming new year

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.

Rejuvenated

Back with some pics ! Been an intensive weekend, filled with upslopes & downslopes, sand, mud, sun & laughter. I like.

On the ferry to Ubin, sure feels HK-ish

Gotta love the view. Paths were rather bumpy/rocky/sandy so we gotta be really careful. $8 and we get the bike for the whole day! How great is that (although we only lasted 4 hours)

The complete group after we climbed up this really tall tower, with our friend matt from UK. Ok this is random but check out the size of his palm in comparison to mine. His are HUGE.

It POURED while we were cycling back, so we all got drenched. Then we sat down for coconuts haha. Ronald said mine must be like 50 years old cos it’s super tough. Both him and lix took turn to help me get the flesh out lols. Thanks guys

Us at the Jetty. The weather was so good with the breeze and sun just right. (before it started to rain that is) What better way to spend a sunday…it was certainely worth waking up early

Ok i’m off to bed now !

Where are my cookies ??

If there’s one addiction i can’t get off, it’s this. I succumbed today and offically become one in the sea of rebonded heads. again. The free-from-bad-hair-day mornings and low maintenance hair is hard to resist.

The 3 hours there was a breeze though, cos i had my book, phone and food with me. So i kept myself pretty occupied haha. Am loving this book, ‘Eat, Love & Pray’. What can i say? It’s just TOTALLY my kind of book.

Heading to ubin to cycle tomorrow. Everybody’s scaring me about cycling at ubin. Hopefully everything will be fine and we’ll all have fun I don’t rmb ever being there, much less cycling there before…so it’s gonna be an adventure of sorts tml !

What happen last week, or last last week, jumbled up:

Seletar reservior at night is really peaceful and nice. Pity the place’s not that accessible. Love sitting by the breakwater…reminds me of east coast, just quieter. Rochor chilled tau huay was good.

Minds cafe was quite fun, but i’m starting to feel old there among the kids. Think we can’t even overscream them now haha. We must rent the BIG Taboo for christmas party this year ! It’s just too fun

AND The cookie museum has the MOST AMAZING cookie flavours. They had local ones like nasi lemak, laksa, ikan bilis and of cos the more ‘normal’ ones like yogurt and berries, ocha, rose and something. Of cos my favourite’s gotta be the rose one ! That goes without saying huh. Too bad they’re really pricey, if not i would have gotten one. Sooooo yummmmmmmyyy.

Ok i kept typing and deleting at this point. Which means there are things i don’t really know if i shld type down here. Anyway what i’ve realised is that i’d much, MUCH prefer going out with a small grp of people as compared to a large one. Unless i’m comfortable with all the ppl in the big grp, that is.

And i can’t believe work is ending in 12 days. Dunnoe what to feel about it.

Never say never

I said i would never cut my hair short but look what i did.

Head feels much lighter, saving on shampoo, conditioner, serum and time to dry it. BUT having to deal with bad hair days sux. Pic on the day of exhorbitant haircut. (i did it at reds) I think he took off abt 10cm of my length, but i like the cut. One of the rare times i don’t regret stepping into a salon.

Before:

After:

Bad thing is, it doesn’t look like that anymore. Remind me to go for some rebonding soon.

And the girls in my office are on a constant diet although they’re aldry stick thin. Good news, they can serve as my motivation haha. I think you call this yielding to societal standards. So, if you can’t beat them, join them.

Looking at commencement photos on fb feels so surreal. Can’t imagine myself in the pictures next year. Doesn’t feel like i have 1 last year left in sch. Am i aldry going on to year 4 aldry? I wonder if i’ll have that many friends to take photos with at my commencement.

Ok anyway as you can see, my thoughts are all jumbled up at the moment…so i will blog more when i feel like it !

Lo and behold

I think i’ve kindda lost the ‘drive’ to blog as often as i used to (although that’s not very often as well).

Umm and i kindda discover that facebook destroys relationships over the past week from not 1, 2 but 3 friends. Behold the power of facebook. I shall not go into details cos they’re personal stuff and i’m really lazy to lols.

Anyway, finally got to buy the famous tanjong pajar muffins on fri. Bought some for the colleagues and some to bring home ! Thumbs up for the soft fluffy moist texture of the banana walnut muffins. Gotta love them.

Caught up on my sleep, had facial done with mum, contact lens exchanged (Thanks to dad who drove all the way down to tpy!), bought some new clothes and spent quality time with family over the weekend. All’s good…and then here comes monday.

Ok I’m going to make myself a big hearty bowl of oatmeal for breakfast tml Hope it drives away the monday blues. I’m actually feeling stressed about this task i have to complete cos i have no freaking idea how to. damm.

Lotsa meetup and dinner stuff coming up this week !

Oh this is a crap post. i just had to force myself to blog somehow hahaha.
