Technically, this is the last weekend I have before I start my internship, since I'll be going away to Malacca the coming weekend. 

TIME FLIES. 

Getting mixed feelings about starting internship next week. Actually only because I haven't done my work as according to what they told me to do. Oops... but I'm really lazy and at a lost as to what I'm actually supposed to do. Urgh. Gonna settle it after I finish this post. Guilt is creeping up on me.

So anyway, after not meeting the boyfriend for a really long time... Finally got to go out with him! ^^ 

I think we just spent most of our time sitting around and talking, or go to Toys R Us to see stupid (and not pretty) barbie dolls and weird car models. And guess what, they actually sell diapers for those dolls. Whattttt? I'd rather save the money to buy pads for myself. I've quite decided that I'm not buying barbie dolls for my kid. She can have soft toys instead. They're so cuddly and cute and everything nice, as compared to scary looking barbie dolls with leh cheh blonde hair. You have to change them and feed them and tie their hair, y u so mafan? And those dolls cry and shit and giggle like a witch. Scary.

K anyway... I finally satisfied my craving for tom yum soup. It was sour... indeed. But I think the boyfriend finished most of it. And had my share of green curry ^^ I don't know how the stupid waitress took our orders and I ended up with 2 servings of rice. And she kept staring at me, y u no let me eat in peace. Maybe she's secretly laughing at me. So I ended up being the glutton, with 2 portions of rice. I didn't finish all! So I'm not as gluttony as you think!

Caught This Means War and like how everyone raved about it, it was good and incredibly funny! 

K gotta do some work now, and pray that I pass my ftt this coming Friday. I wonder when will be the day I can finally get my license lol.

I'm back from Malaysia!!! 

It's been a tiring 4D3N trip cus of heavy bags, deprived sleep (especially not sleeping after going to Night Safari) and huge amounts of walking throughout. 

It's been fun nonetheless!!!

So we took our coach from Tampines early morning and slept all the way throughout till Genting zzz.



Other than the rest stop at Yong Peng I mean.



Reached Genting at about noon. Looks like a final briefing by Vivian's dad. LOL. And look at Gwee's huge bag.


Stayed at First World again. #forevercrowded


Then we went to find some food and start our activities for the day!!!

Everywhere's people so it's kinda annoying :/ urgh, dislike crowds.


Went to get tickets for MI4.


Followed by lunch at Marrybrown.
Chicken #1



Went to see Gwee and Daanish play pool first, while waiting for the Karaoke place to open.

And we were laughing at how Gwee acted like she just ran away from home.




Sing K. #notcheap.


Was evening by the time we were done singing. And it was really really misty outside, just couldn't resist taking a few more shots.



And of course, bowling at the very cool bowling place.

My scores were like !@#$%^&

I was on a number 9 score streak. FRUSTRATING.


Had a quick dinner then we were off to catch our movie!!!

Seats were surprisingly comfortable cus the interior of the ticketing counter was meh, but the theatre was not bad.

Was sitting at the third row from the front, my eyes hurt so badly from the dry contacts. Plus I was so sleepy, I fell asleep when Tom Cruise went to India. The remaining parts of the movie are just... zero.


Back to the hotel to crash.

Morning breakfast at the cafe. Mehhhhhhhhh.

Then baskin robbins! Cotton candyyyy~~~


Checked out and we were off to KL!!!

I have very very very very limited photos of my stay in KL because

1. It's my 3rd time in KL in 4 months and the places I'm going to are quite the same, so nothing too surprising for me to take photos of.

2. It's insane to lug my G12 which weighs half a KG all around the streets of KL, so I've decided it's better off lying in the hotel, comfortable and nice.

Checked in at Furama Hotel and we were given adjoining rooms and we even had an entertainment room. Totally felt like an apartment! Plus it was so comfortable and clean and new!!!


Kenny Rogers for lunch at Berjaya Times Square and to kope their wifi which was very very bad cos it's so unstable :/
Chicken #2


After that was shopping at Sungei Wang, where Vivian got her hair done while we dozed off at Starbucks / using Wifi.

Then off to Fahrenheit and Pavilion to shop.

Ended Day 2 with A&W as usual. Root beer float~
Chicken #3

Slept in on the 3rd day we missed breakfast.

Headed to Jalan Ampang for some curry rice brunch.
Chicken #4


And cabbed down to Mid Valley for some shopping!!!

And I finally tried Krispy Kreme for the first time.


Never been a big fan of donuts cos their sweetness scares me. But Krispy Kreme was surprisingly good. I now understand why people always tabao them back to Singapore. Maybe I bought the right donut so it wasn't that sweet. The rest, like those with oreo filing, still scares me.

Left Mid Valley for Kampong Baru to have some roadside dinner. Very much away from civilization. Food was cheap (I think?), and portions were filling.


And last destination for the day - KLCC!!! Another place I've never been to yet, so I can now say I've finally been to KLCC. 

We had a really long walk and finally decided to take the train to KLCC for shopping.

I kinda regret not buying the clutch I saw but it was so expensive. But I want it now. 

Sigh, what was I thinking?


Was back at the hotel relatively early, and had a considerably early sleep too.

Breakfast in the hotel (which was also this morning) was really bad.

And shopping at Berjaya Times Square!!!

Bought quite a lot of clothes which I think I probably wouldn't even wear in the near future.

Thankfully, mum took a liking to the only bag that I bought, because I decided I didn't really like it after buying it. But anyway, the bag's out with mum now for her party hahahahahaha.

So that kinda concluded our trip to Malaysia. Massive shopping and walking, I think my slippers were really made good use of. (Y)

And so glad I brought an extra bag, but the things were so heavy I used half my life to carry them all to the bus station.


Feels good to be back in Singapore :)

I'm veggie deprived.

End of tests means going out and meeting up with the JC, and some of the poly people, like finally. Been months and months of not seeing them.

Stayed the entire evening in Marina Square (especially Starbucks) and missed the entire woohaa about the lunar eclipse.


Caught "Already Famous" after dinner and nua-ing at Starbucks for a really really loooong time. Took up the entire row of seats in the cinema hurhur.

Movie wasn't too bad. Much humorous content.

Impromptu rochor tauhuey @ Geylang afterwards. Shiok dieeeeee.
Tauhuey's the trend yo!

Cabbed home after that and was really sleepy in the cab, but didn't dare to fall asleep cos I was afraid the uncles do something funny. Always feel like that when I'm cabbing home late at night. #thinktoomuch

I don't know, bus rides feel safer, plus they don't speed and I have to worry that they miss a certain turn. LOL.

Oh well, someone's gone to Malaysia and left me in Singaporeeeee. I'm gonna be so bored for the next few days or so zzz :(

Gonna spend my time watching dramas.
And find my long lost love for Mike He again ^^

Sleep deprived ever since holidays started. Too many exciting things to do to be wasted on sleeping!

I haven't been napping either, and the number of hours I sleep for the past few days is pathetic that the effect it's causing is so prominently reflected on my face, so cui so cui.

Today's the official start to the 6 weeks holidays, though I've been playing a lot already in the past few days. And people have all started their attachment / internship / work / I don't know what else, and I'm a very free person here thinking of what to play everyday.

So, anyway, I accompanied the boy to work today ^^

And everyone is dressed in office wear except me, dressed in casual, going home when they all are going to work.

-

Then in the afternoon, I met up with the poly girls for lunch. Was "invited" to go join them for gym, but me has lazy bones to exercise (though I think I should after eating so much). So I told them I would meet them after their gym session to have lunch heh heh. I'm way too lazy for my own good.

Pastamaniaaaaaaa~

Decided to catch a movie with them, since Peimin has to go meet her customers and we were free the entire day so... Final Destination 5!!!

Made use of our free ticket heh heh.

Had a lot of time to spare before the movie. Managed to buy new shorts, played dress up in Cotton Up (the girls dressed me up as a hippy but I'm too embarrassed to post the picture here, no courage oops), and then lepak at Coffee Bean.

The entire cinema was so empty I think there were not more than 20 people, so we had the entire row to ourselves.

FD5 was so gory I skipped all the painful parts by hiding behind my cardigan eewwww. I think it became from watching it to squinting to totally shutting myself out from the movie. Didn't know what I was thinking when I smsed the girls asking them to watch the movie :O

And I swore so many times lol, I remember saying, "Bloody fucker, get out!"

It was so gross that my stomach was churning yuck.

We probably squealed many many times, so it was kinda good that the cinema was empty cos I think we were kinda noisy.

After the movie, we had the intention of watching another movie, a comedy at that, to relieve whatever gross feeling we had, but oh well no nice movies so we decided to go...

Bowling!

HAHAHAHAHA.

Don't know why my scores are so jialat recently when I go bowling. What happened to all my 100 scores :/ I'm so depressed everytime I get shitty points :(

But okay, definitely had the effect of making us feel better!

And I think it's kinda good that I don't remember nitty gritty details from movies, cos I think I have a very vague impression of whatever happened in the show.


Today's too good in the sense that we girls have done something other than eating LOL.

YAY good day good day~

And and exactly 1 more week before we depart to malaysia! Omg yes going to be many many times more fun! Aww yeahhhhhh.

I CAUGHT HARRY POTTER & THE DEATHLY HALLOWS PART 2 YESTERDAY!!!

It was damn awesome so if you haven't go watch / not intending to watch / whatever other reasons you have, just go and watch it!!!

Was really hyped up about it when Gwee told me there were extra tickets, so I could go! Yessahhhhh. Cos I had initially rejected the "invitation" to go watch it with them cos I didn't catch Part 1. Noooooob.

But...

Since the boy downloaded Part 1 for me (meaning I was no more suaku noob), and there were extra tickets just one day before the movie, omgggg nothing else matters anymore. I just had to go!

It's all fated. I must be mad lucky, yeahhhh!

-

Kk before that, I met Cheng first for dinner at Songfa BKT!!! Mad hungry so I forgot to snap pictures. Aiya, but don't need see pictures also will know how awesome it is!!!

I think I was a tad too hungry yesterday.

And immediately after dinner, we went to find dessert at Central.

But it was... meh.


Then we trained to meet Gwee at Dhoby Ghaut.

And the 2 of us stupidly got lost Dhoby Ghaut MRT station, trying to figure out way out to Plaza Sing like idiots.

And met up with Line and the rest at Grand Cathay!!!

Okay, the awesomeness of 3D!!! Definitely made the movie many many times better and more magnificant!!! Still so overwhelmed when I think back about the movie cos it was mad fascinating!!!

Ahhh, okay not going to spoil it, but it's seriously (Y)! Damn epic when everyone clapped at the start and at the end of the movie lol.

There goes a huge part of my childhood. I think I'm quite fail cos I gave up reading the series when I reached Goblet of Fire. But I can still remember buying the books so many years ago. Like happy only, and bringing them to school like a zai kid! At least I still follow the movies so I ain't that bad rightttt.

Oh well, farewell Harry Potter~

But but,

Whoever's going to watch Part 2, please buy an extra ticket for me cos I wanna go watch again!!!

With all the girls that night!!!


Trying to take pictures at 12 midnight. Looking damn cui already.


But... the night doesn't end here!!!

Since it was already late, and we were going to cab home anyway...

We went to have supper ;) Selegie Tauhuey down the road!!!

The youtiao was seriously sinful. Not a big fan of deep fried food, especially so late at night. Good thing we all shared the food.

Sitting in the back alley enjoying our late night supper~ #simplepleasuresinlife


Very awesome night and thanks a million to Line who organised it (and lucky me who managed to squeeze in at the end, heh).

Ended up sleeping at 3 in the morning though there was school today but I think the night was too awesome to be wasted on sleeping. Yes, so we spent in on spamming facebook.

Compensated my lack of sleep by having a really long 5 hours nap after school today. So I highly think that I can go without sleeping tonight :O Supper anyone?

HAPPY FATHERS' DAY!!!

This year, we had a 2 family combined celebration together with my aunt. Which is not bad!!!

Caught Mr Popper's Penguins this afternoon! So rare that my dad will want to watch an English movie.

And it's awesome!!! So was Jim Carey!

Then we all went to have dinner together!

Wanted to go eat Astons (again), but I don't know why dad wasn't very keen about dining there, so we went to Toa Payoh instead.

And on the way there...






And tada! UNO Beef House for dinner!


And the adults sitting at one table, while I accompany the kids.





And my chicken choooooop. 2nd time there and, actually the food isn't really that great. Hmmmmmm...


And I finally got my microsoft office from Popular just now!!!


Yay at least I'm starting to make good use of my netbook.


Okay, just something stupid to share with you all.


For the past 1 week (yes, my asus baby has been at home for 1 week already) and I couldn't figure out how to connect it to the Internet cos it keeps telling me "limited access".


So today, I sought help from my uncle... And found out... that... the problem was...


I KEYED IN THE WRONG SECURITY KEY! MAJOR -.- NOOB MOMENT! :<


-


K anyway, it's Father's Day today. Gonna just share some thoughts.


I think I've never ever prepared a Father's Day gift for dad before.


I've seen many people writing on their facebook about how they love their dads.


Yes, my dad loves me a lot. I love him too.


He gives me more than what I really need.

He's always sure that I have enough to spend, makes sure that I'm happy, and always goes the extra mile for me, sometimes it makes mum jealous, I presume.


Just that... It's strange how...


I'm not close to him.


I think it's because he spends very little time at home, with the family cos of his work.


Over the years, the time that we get to see him only decreases.


It used to be having the weekends (actually I can't remember much about this), then Sundays... then Sundays morning - evenings. And now, only the afternoons. So lucky you, if you have your dad at home every night.


Actually, I don't even exactly know what's the feeling of having dad at home every night. I think it just sounds weird to me.


So recently, I've been thinking, maybe... my dad isn't suited to be a family man.


I don't know.


We don't have much to talk about. And it's sometimes awkward seeing him at home. So it's just, him in the room, and me in the living room doing our own things. And he asks me a few questions about school and I say bye to him when he's leaving the house.


Other than that, we communicate through post-it notes.


Car rides with just the 2 of us makes me feel... weird.


Mum's always telling me how much my dad loves me, how much he can give me just because I want something.


Yes I know it. Very clearly.


Everytime I behave rudely, he never did scold me. And when I know that he's very affected by it, I've never once apologised. I think I never knew how to put it across.


I'm not like my brother. I'm not as passionate and affectionate as him. I don't give hugs to my dad like how he does. My brother can make people happy with those small actions, but that's not me.


I don't know how I should express my gratitude and love for my dad (and even sometimes mum). I admit, I'm not a very good daughter.


But still...


Thanks Dad, for everything.


And thank you for making my week so much better :)
