30 December 2007, Sunday
My mum, sis, Dear Dear & I went to meet aunt for breakfast at Eunos. After the breakfast, Dear Dear & I went to Bedok to get his specs.

The spec was not really well done, the finishing at the sides of the lens were rough, but in the end we didn't go back and request for additional conditioning of the specs...


29 December 2007, Saturday
Dear Dear & I went to shop at BHG Bugis then we moved on to the temple to pray and of course go into OG Albert to take a look since it is so near..

Then we went to Dhoby Ghaut to shop, went into Cathay & PS... There's a very Chinese Mega Book store in Cathay, u can go and take a look if u wanna find China movies or books.

Lastly we went to City Hall, wanting to get Shaun's present, but the thing we wanna buy is way out of our budget :( Wanted to get something tt he like...

In the end, we went back home empty handed after shopping for the whole day.

Happy Bday, Dear Dear!!!!!

Poor Dear Dear has to work at his internship on his bday.
However, he is so lucky to have really thoughtful friends like Royston, Yihe & Marie who came all the way to his house with cake & present! That was so sweet of them... Furthermore, Yihe was sick tt day even though he still crapped a lot.

Results came out on Dear Dear’s bday again... Why must it always be on this date??? Hmm...

Btw, here's the present from our Uni classmates & me! He wanted to train weights, so he got his request fulfilled :)
The weights including the bar is 10Kg per set and there's 2 set of it.
There's a wheel exercise where u have to kneel down & wheel urself forward (Kev wheel himself forward standing up at 1st!! haha... But he did it! though it was not the right way...)
And lastly a Charlie Chaplin series tt he chose himself too...



27 December 2007, Thursday
Went for lunch with Xiling, then accompany her to choose her specs frame. She was rather fussy, like any typical girl who loves to shop... keke...
After lunch, I went to meet Kristine to get the G2000 VIP card from her. Finally found someone with the card, her offer to lend me the card really came at a great timing ;p

After work, met up with Dear Dear at Raffles City G2000 to buy the suit. We met Ben & friends in the shop. So, we lend him the VIP card so that he can also get additional 15% discount of the discounted price, then he paid using his OCBC credit card so that both himself & us can get the $30 voucher. Great combination!

Dear bought a pair of sunglass for me from River Island...

I saw a top tt i like but it cost $90, but i didn't but it as i decided tt it is not worth the price! Halfway shopping, we gotta go & meet his Minor E friends to discuss about project... After the discussion, we went xin wang HK café for dinner... Still think Shi Nai HK Cafe is better :)

26 December 2007, Wednesday
Met Kristine for lunch, had prawn noodle at Far East Square. Not nice one… I think the one near boat quay is much better and the prawns are big!

It’s Karin’s Bday today, but I could not stay too late to see her cut her bday cake, so I sang Bday song with them over the phone. haha!

25 December 2007, Tuesday
Merry Xmaz!

My parents & Meiling’s mother went on cruise today. I went to Dear Dear's house, all meals at his house all involves Turkey, except for the bai guo yi mi shui that ah ma cooked :)

We had Dinner at Geylang Xin Ma with his family, Uncle Philip, Bernard, Serene, Alvin & Dominic. Serene & Family gave me a xmaz gift -A cup with lid & a spoon- Every year they gimme present, feel bad not preparing anything for them... Gotta get something for them next year...


Here are my Xmaz presents & cards!

24 December 2007, Monday
Helped my mum to prepare for the Xmaz Eve Feast tonight.
So many ppl came for the Dinner wor... but Daddy went to drive cab... Dear Dear, Kun Xiong, Jane & her nephew came.

22 December 2007, Saturday
The Panasonic 37” TV came, but cannot install yet. The TV was delivered by Best but we need to wait for the staff from Panasonic to mount the TV onto the wall. Leaving it at the living is so "tat lor"... Even worse, the Best delivery staff forgot to bring the card reader & we need to go down to Dhoby Ghaut Best personally on that very day to make payment.

Since we are there might as well just shopped ard but my sis went off as she need to attend Lishan’s house warming. My mum & I bought some kitchen ware & hair accessories from Daiso. It is quite easy for Daiso to train cashier coz everything is selling at $2! No need for barcode etc.. so troublesome, count number of items and times 2, that's it!
I bought a top from La Senza and a dress from This Fashion. Hmm... Long time nv buy clothes le... haha!

My Daddy is so cute, he was waiting for us to come home & have tea with him, hehe.. tot that he would have went to rest le.

21 December 2007, Friday
Bought some xmaz gifts for some of my colleagues & ex-colleagues during lunch time. Very last minute though, haha...

Met Kristine, Doreen & the new girl for lunch at Golden Shoe again.

After work, Dear Dear & I went to City Hall to shop a while first before going to Bras Basah to meet Royston. Yihe & Marie came and meet us @ the Food Centre in Bugis Village.
Marie is from St Hildas and she knows quite a few of my poly friends as they are secondary school mates. I feel that Marie & I took quite similar path :)

After that we walked around for a while before we settled down at the famous dessert shop along the alley opp Bugis Junction. Went there once during one of the pyritez FOC activities if i did not rmbr wrongly.




20 December 2007, Thursday
Had Dim Sum with Dear Dear & his family at Hong Xing. After the meal, his dad & grandma went home, while the rest of us went shopping around Chinatown.



Dear Dear bought me a xmaz present ;p -a pair of shorts from Dorothy Perkins-




19 December 2007, Wednesday
Lunch with Kristine at the famous duck rice stall.

After the lunch, we went to coffee bean to order xmaz party set. She was buying them for the office.

Had dinner at Pastamania at Tanjong Pagar with Dear Dear. We were the only customers in the restaurant. For your information, no student price after 6pm :(

18 December 2007, Tuesday
Lunched with Dear Dear after his GIC interview.
Watched warlords with Stephanie, Yitian, Wanyu, Paul, Hanwen, Gary & Dear Dear. Before the movie, we saw Irene who came to watch Alvin & the Chipmunks with her friends.

In the threatre, we or rather Gary met a Weird China guy who sat at one of our seats as he was not sure how to read the movie ticket... Anyway, the blur blur Gary showed him the wrong Directions too! hahaha!!! He was supposed to sit at the last seat of Row K which was the row which we were supposed to sit also. However, Gary didn't know that row was K and he brought him up a few rows before realising it.

The show was quite nice, although some parts are rather stupid... "Da ge shi dui de". Haha, Jin Chen Wu's tag line for the show ;p

17 December 2007, Monday
Lunched with Dear Dear after his BOA interview before we went to PWC to hand in the PWC contract.

16 December 2007, Sunday
Went to Eunos with mama & aunt in the morning to have breakfast.
In the afternoon, I went to Orchard to meet Dear Dear & Bernard. Bernard bought a spiderman soft toy at Forum Toys ‘R’ Us for Dominic.

Took a pic with the Red dog since we are both wearing red coincidentally :)

Here's Dear Dear & Bernard:
After that, I wanted to have lunch at BK Wheel Lock, only to find that it is closed!!! Not again… just like tt day when we wanted to have Long John Silver…Sianz. We shopped all the way down to Somerset & had BK at Cineleisure instead :)

15 December 2007, Saturday
Went to City Hall with Xian then Mind’s Cafe.
Min & Ronald were the 1st couple to arrive after us. Then Geline & Jim, Chris & Russell, Lora & Christopher, Lei & Alex. Lastly, Huixian & Samantha (Zao Shua) came tgt, & Edmund came quite late when the outing is about to end. Yonghao who went to the concert was not able to make it in time. I think he tried to rush over but the gathering just ended.
Thks to Samantha who took the photo for us :p
I like this photo alot, especially Huimin's pose. Lora, thks for sending us the pics!Too many ppl = poor money settlement. Next time we need to think of a better way to do so :p
Dear Dear stayed at Bernard’s House so he did not join us for this outing...


10-14 December 2007, Monday – Friday
Lunch Dates on:
- Monday with Dear Dear who came for KPMG interview
- Tuesday with Evelyn & other colleagues at Circular Road (Lor Mee)
- Wednesday with Lora & Christopher at a Thai Coffeeshop near Boat Quay - Thursday with Royston, Lynn, Jolene & another colleague near Boat Quay (Prawn Mee)
- Friday with Kristine, Doreen & their new colleague at Golden Shoe for lunch
After work on thursday, Dear Dear & I went to PS to shop and saw his friend’s brownies shop -P.Osh!- at Dhoby Ghaut Xchange. Tried one piece, taste good but find it still a bit ex.
Saw a pair of shoes that I like but don’t have my size le, so sad… Wanted to buy Dear Dear’s present but the free weights were out of stock, so we only got the Roller

After that we went to meet my Minor in Entrepreneurship classmates & Miko at Fish & Co. Glasshouse for a gathering.
Marc told us about his whale sperm story, keke... yummy huh? Too bad Dear Dear & I were too tired, so we didn't join them for a drink after the dinner.

On Friday, we went to Somerset to get Dear Dear’s present at Wisma Isetan. Yeah! The only bad thing was that Dear Dear carried that and walked all the way to Cineleisure as we wanted to eat Long John Silver. The weights were so heavy as we bought 2 sets (20Kg altogether). When we reached there, Long John Silver was closed! Argh...

9 December 2007, Sunday
Celebrated Hector’s 1 year old bday at Pasir Ris CC. Look at our Bday Boy :p There are so many babies! And all four are so chubby!
The bday boy was sulking throughout the party. I guess he was totally lost about what's happening. However... for one moment, he laughed
Hector laughed when he saw everyone sings Happy Bday song for him. Wonder why he find it so funny, keke...
Here's my Aunt & her family... Think my sis was too concentrated on the babies, she left out Ah Ying who was on the extreme right side of the photo... See his arm?
Here is my family: My Daddy, mum, sis, Dear Dear and me attended the bday. My brother & Jane overslept... Look at my Daddy, he was so happy to carry Brian.
Friends of my Mum & Aunt came, too
After the celebration, Dear Dear & I went to Bugis Temple to pray. Hope that everything goes well, esp our families' health.

8 December 2007, Saturday
Walked from Dear Dear's house all the way to East Coast to meet Hanwen & Joel for Canoeing. Gary overslept... Ming Chew came too coz he was supposed to get his comics from Dear Dear. Anyway, Dear Dear forgot to bring so he just went along with our Canoe Expedition... In the end, there was no where to rent the canoe at East Coast. The shop was closed and if we wanted, we would have to walk really far before we would get to the rental shop.
We ended up at Gary's house playing Mahjong, Guo Yi joined us too.

Guo Yi & Ming Chew paired up, Dear Dear & me paired up, Hanwen & Joel paired up & Gary went solo. End of the game... Winners are Guo Yi & Ming Chew and Runner-up is Dear Dear & me!

After the Mj session, we went to Bedok Interchange Hawker Centre to have lunch before we all went home separately.


7 December 2007, Friday
Went for PWC’s interview, saw many NTU friends again. Haha!
Met Jia Hao & his fiancée, Serina, for lunch. Another free meal. Oh no... I am starting to feel bad.
Anyway, I promise them a meal if I get into PWC ;p
6 December 2007, Thursday
Lunch with Xiling at The Arcade, she treated me :P
Think i didn't spend much on lunch this week, keke...

5 December 2007, Wednesday
Went for EY & KPMG’s interview where all NTU students gather ;p
In between the interviews:
- Had lunch with Dear Dear and Xavier at a Ninja Restaurant which sell claypot rice & curry noodle. Reasonable price but you will smell like one of their dishes after the meal, haha!
- Accompany Dear Dear to PWC- Met Wenqi to take mf’s bday card- My shoes were spoilt, so bought one more pair of shoes again… hahaha!

It had been raining the whole day so badly, I feel so feverish...
Were supposed to go to a seminar with Weiliang, Feng Yi, Desmond etc, but was not feeling well so we didn't go even though we still saw them at the MRT. Hanwen was not feeling well too, so he ended up not going, too. Rainy days make ppl feel sick i guess...

4 December 2007, Tuesday
The APF Finance Team held a welcome lunch for me at a Jap Restaurant in the Hong Leong Building at B1. Nice food, but not cheap... Really appreciate their warm welcome as I will only be there for about a month

After work, I bought 2 pairs of shoes coz i saw a pair of brown heels which met all the criteria which I had been looking for.
Here the heart shape egg i planned to make but failed... So I ask my mama to demo once ;p
My mama bu kui shi jia ting zhu fu

It's Subject Registration Day. There's error in Dear Dear's records in the school resulting in problems registering subjects. We were really anxious but thankfully, the registration this time round is much more relaxed. After more than an hour later when Dear Dear's problem had been solved, there were still vacancies remaining. Even though we did not manage to get one of our index as planned, we've gotten the other index of the same time slot :)

1st Day of work at Lasalle investment.
Nothing much to do, coz i came in half of the day. The only things settled were that my workstation & work email had been assigned to me.

Caitlan referred me to Evelyn and Evelyn requested Jesslyn to show me around the office. The office was new coz they just expanded to this new unit just opposite their existing office.
Great pantry, full of drinks, fruits, candies, chocolates & cookies! I like that, haha! By the way, my seat is quite near to the pantry ;p

Xiling came to check if everything was fine for me & Evelyn was trying her best to make me feel comfortable there too. That's all I did for tt half day, haha!

30 Nov 2007 Friday
Kev & I went to meet Ekasith who came back to Singapore for a short period of time.

We went to Outram Park Hawker Centre and have breakfast before going to Chinatown Point to have a cup of coffee.

After that they rushed home with me to get the Karaoke VCDs for Simei's Bday, then we rushed to Kev's house coz he needed to change into his VJ attire for Simei's Bday Theme... Rushing here and there was making me feeling slightly exhausted, haha, think i am really getting old.
After which Ekasith went to meet his friends and Kev & I went to Simei's Bday.
Simei Bday Chalet @ Aloha Loyang
While waiting for Gary at Whitesands Outside Ben & Jerry's outlet...
Look at the cookies Mengsan made for her! So sweet of her :)

In the Chalet...
Kev telling story... others are listening attentively.

See Simei's niece (Ling Xi)?? So chubby and cute right?? She's a.. greedy little girl, u need to bribe her using food so that you can carry her! Tt's how she becomes chubby i guess, haha!


Gary did his forfeit (Pole Dance) and drank the beer after losing the Indian Poker Game. Spontaneous wor *claps*
Here's a present from Simei's friend, they photoshopped her picture and placed her head on a granny's body (then she will be liang po po??? haha, j/k)


11 Nov 2007, Sunday to 29 Nov 2007 Thursday
Nothing much happens in between coz it''s the examz period...
Except our 2years anniversary :p Yeah!

On my last paper, Kev & I went to Cineleisure to watch Beowulf... Kinda wasted our time and money, coz it's not a very nice show. No climax, and alot of parts left your thoughts hanging there with no explanation throughout the whole show... disappointing show.
