Yesterday I finally got back 2 of my 2nd assignments and imagine my surprise and joy when i saw "Distinction"!H aha, yay! I had the satisfied smile of a chesire cat who swallowed a pigeon. *Grins* I'm notplease though, to think about my exams which i definitely did not do well and will pull down the grades, what an absolute turn-off huh?

Anyway, yesterday was Tuesday. I met up with my friend and we went to Marina South for dinner and drinks. The "Hua Diao Mian" was really great, excellent taste indeed! I even managed to learn a new card trick from my old friend. :)  **To friends** (Cheers)

This may seems like an excuse, it may even be, but i am really bad at keep contact through emails. That is not to say, "Out of sight = out of mind", coz i do miss a certain dear friend alot and thoughts of her just pops up randomly in my everyday life. I am referring to one of my oldest and truest friend on earth, my dear Mei! Hee, I recieved yet another beautiful postcard, from London this time. The thing about a postcard, its actually the words that holds the most appeal for me, and my dear is not a word-miser (thanks god!), Just in case you managed to drop by the blogs (though i doubt so) please know that i do miss u lots and hope u r back soon! I am sure you will have lots to update (like prince william and etc), **Misses you absolutely, terribly like crazy**

Lyn is finally back from China and the 3 of us finally meet up yesterday. I realised its been quite sometimes since we meet in the afternoon and well, we started the day @ Malay Village. In case there are any confusion, the Malay Village that i am referring to is the one at Geylang Serai and is totally different from Kampong Glam and Arab Street. Well, then, it started drizzling when we reached (what a turn-off!) and to say the truth, i am not sure if it is because we went at a wrong time or has it always been like that, but there's just nothing much/special about it. *Cringe* (I wasn't in a very energetic mood to start off with-sorry gals!)

We finally left the place after a short while and proceed to Parkway Parade where we sourced for a pair of shorts for me. Lyn found one @ Baleno and it was really cheap at $15.00. It was pink in color (must emphasize.. its my only pair of pink shorts btw). Dinner was @ East Coast Park but before we reached there, I managed to make myself embarassed (mind you, it was accidental!). I fell down once again. It was just before we crossed the road and there were many people walking to and fro, cars by the side, and "Thump!" i went. *Frowns* I am thinking since i fall so often, i should really formulate a "graceful" way to fall. That was so unglamourous and my butt hurts. Darns!

Well, you know how they (Yin's famous words) s aid "one must always do everything at least once"? Well, Yin and me decided to get Lyn to the KTV to sing coz we realised we had never ever, never ever heard her sing b4 and how many years of friendship is that? Close to 10 years..amazing right? Anyway, we finally managed to get her to go and I must said we had a crazy time singing, dancing and laughing. *Sighs* I am already starting to think about when my dear goes off, I will miss her so much and we won't have such fun coz 3 minus 1. *Shrugs* Well, worry when the time comes, okie, its a really wet morning today. Breakfast time, have a nice day, everyone!

Like my dear singing friends~

Perception can really be deceptive! Just now when I was walking home, I have the bad fortune to pass by one of the void deck and discovered an injured pigeon sitting in the middle of nowhere. There just aint any chance of missing it. Being the "kind soul" i was, i just couldnt stand the thought of leaving that poor thing there defenseless against the cats and dogs.

Therefore, after calling for help from different parties, finally my endless beggings induced my "kind" mum to come downstair to help me out (mind you, that was after she finished watching her drama show). Well, as you can guess, there i was waiting besides the bird (i dont even like that thing) and finally help came. After a few few attempts to put it into a box, the stupid bird actually managed to fly up and away by itself. I felt so cheated and embarassed! Next time, i will not stop to help or worry for nothing! So indeed, see how deceptiveperceptions can be? Well, i am glad the bird managed to fly to safety zone anyway. *Shrugs*

Hey guys! There's *that something* that I had found (with the help of Lyn dear) to fill up my schedule. Well, there's this event by the Singapore Biennale and I had signed up as an Artist Liasion Officer Volunteer. I hope i will get it but if i do, that means i will be very busy in the near future. Yeaps, I would like to pack my life into a fufilling one, with one interesting event after another. This will be a good experience if I managed to get it! *Cross Fingers & gets excited*

Just now, I met up with this ex-S.African airline friend whom I used to liaise with when I was working at AT previously. Anyway, dinner was short and sweet but !!! Only when I reached home and finished watching the 9pm drama, did i realised that I actually had 3 missed calls! One of which was the much anticipated call. Hehe, so guess what, guys? I got *that something* to look forward to next tuesday. :) Hope this time I really get to meet my friend! HAve a good night then, everyone!

Living the Dream II by Jennifer Wiley - I wanna live my dream in reality too~

The title speaks it all. Yeaps, my exams are finally over. I hate to admit that I was quite demoralised previously because I know I will not be doing very well for these few exams (will be glad if i can pass) but well, the papers are not that tough actually. The main crux of the prob is that I didnt prepare enough for it. No sweat though, i will strive for the ADs next sem! YAY Yay.. and so yea, after a few days of overdose on coffee, cornetto minis(makes me terribly happy) and endless notes taking/reading, I can finally take a breather.

Friday (after exams), Yin dear and I went for this Kanebo makeover for "Summer Princess" contest. We thought it would be fun to try it out before we go for an actual makeover (pulling lyn along) but well, i have to say the "makeover" didnt turn out well for either of us. I was freaked speechless after the make up was put on and the photographer was driven exasperated by me! *shrugs* you cant blame me coz he was asking me to do those weird clique poses which are so.. not me! Hhaha, well anyway, its an *ahem* interesting experience, i guess? As i told Yin, our natural beauty were completely hidden! Now I am having 2nd and 3rd thoughts on any other makeover sessions! Anyway, we had dinner at that restaurant where Victor used to work and met up with my dear Dez after that. *Sorry i was so cranky and scolded you when u came, Dez! We were planning to go to the Harry's Bar but soccer fans were dominating the whole of boat quay and clarke quay and in the end, we ended up at Fullerton's. Their sandwiches are really huge!

@ Mache (Serene, me, Peggy & Cherriene)

My yesterday was a fufilling one too. I met up with some of my ex-AT colleagues to celebrate Serene's bday. She really looked more beautiful after dolling up! Well then, at night I managed to meet up with my shifu, Alice and Sinni for one last KTV session before Alice give birth. It was the first time we were all so tired and left early though. Nonetheless, I am glad i managed to meet up with them.

*Finally. It's Time for Play!

Last Sat, we held a cruise open house @ United Square PB and well, here are some photos for perusal. Oh yea, one good thing came out of it after all. (It was a bad day coz i was having actually having terrible stomach cramps.) The good thing being my photographer dropped by and we had dinner together subsequently (with Peggy too). Anyway, this is the third time I met him and since its not a chance meeting, i guess there goes the possiblity of a marriage proposal relating to fate huh? Haha, enjoy the pics, guys!

Some kinda pasta @ Casa Roma located at Bukit Timah Sixth Ave. The pizza is well-recommended. *Yum!*

Hi guys, i havent been updating much lately, and that is largely contributed to a lack of mood and the fact that i should try to appear conscientious in studying rather than blogging.. but nope, i havent been studying much either. I tried my best though. Anyway, i took a paper last friday and there's two more to go. God bless me!

Recently, there's another new campaign in Singapore and that is the "4 Million Smiles 2006 Campaign". As quoted, "Singapore 2006 showcases Singapore as a global city with a world of opportunities. It is a series of events which highlights Singapore as a dynamic, well-connected and entrepreneurial economy with tremendous opportunities in the financial, business, technology and creative industries sectors. It also puts the spotlight on Singapore as a cosmopolitan society where arts and culture thrive." They are piecing together a digital mural and people’re invited to be a part of it! Every successful picture will be posted live online, and will form a part of the jigsaw that is the Singapore 2006 mural. Being the patriotic me, of course i took part in it. I think it is quite a good idea indeed. Anyway, please submit a photo of yourself with a big cheery smil e @ www.smiles2006.com if you guys are interested. *winks**  

*Yay! My pic was successful! Can you find me? This is page 1 of 5 of the mural. Courtesy from the website. Smile, Singapore!

The sun was at its peak this afternoon and the strong rays shining on me made me realised what a contradicting person i am. Okay, so maybe i knew all along about the contradictions but i choose to forget it most of the time! Anyway, you guys know how much i like the sun, dont you? Well, i betcha you guys does not know i try my best to avoid it at the same time too... Have you ever:

Want something yet don't want that something at the same time?

Feel happy and sad at the same time?

Do something and do nothing at the same time?

*Pls do not tell me that is indecisiveness.

Hi guys, i hope everyone is doing fine and completing what they want to do coz i aint completing what i am supposed to do and i have no sense of guilt or urgency, which is bad. Yea, as you all would have figured out, this has something to do with the upcoming exams commencing next week and the lack of revision up till now. I was supposed to go into retreat starting today for about 2 weeks but somehow, the text book makes me almost fall asleep in the library!

I ended up shopping @ the neighbourhood shopping mall and did i mentioned a little boy called me "Auntie" with that deceptively adorable smile? *Argh!* Kids these days are so ignorant... I wanted to make him call me 'sis' instead but that would seems to be pathetic, if not degrading. Dear friends, if you ever have kids, please educate them to look closely before addressing strangers as Asian ladies like myself are very particular! No one likes to be reminded that they are older and growing old everyday. A big no-no indeed!

Anyway, after work, Peggy & I discovered this nice restaurant/cafe @ Murray St named 'Relations'. The food there is yummy and the place has got a nice ambience! Westgals to note please! Well then, i just wanted to do some advertising... *shrugs*

Let's hope tomorrow will be a better day.

Left to Right:

1) Jamaica Hibis & Peach Soda

2) Baked Salmon Pasta, Fresh Baked Scallops (Drools) & my Chicken filled Wrap (cant rem the fancy name)

Hi guys, Happy June Day! We have Mayday, dont we? Well, i dont see why we cant have June day then. Anyway, work seems to be dreary these days and I am glad when the time to knock off finally approached...

I had an important date with some dear friends today. Unfortunately, Phoebe could not make it as she was sick (get well soon!) but Yilin & i finally get to meet up with Julie dear! It has been so long since we last met that i was getting abit nervous about whether there will be awkward silences in between (i worry too much these days) but apparently, we have too much to update that time seems to pass in just a flash! Whoever said silence is golden is wrong when it comes to catching up with friends! Hope you gals enjoy today's meeting as much as i do.:)

Okie, so now i am feeling a bit guilty becoz i had been teling tons of people i cant go out due to my approaching exams but there are these indulgences to meet these people who are dear to me... not that those whom i didnt meet are not dear to me... but rather, i guess it depends alot on the right timing! Sorry to Willy and Dez, i do miss you guys too and will meet you guys as soon as possible!

In an Unlikely place taking a pic...
