meeting up with the tkgs bunch! eunice, zee and seetha! wheeeee!
it's been so long since we last met up, the 4 of us. the 4 who used to hang out with each other so much when we were staying in dunman high hostel. we spent the whole day chatting. first place, macs. sat there for 2.5 hrs. then moved to kim gary, another 2 hrs. then coffee bean, 1.5 hrs. wanfen joined us at coffee bean after her work. eunice skipped her 4.30 class. heh. all thanks to my influence!
eunice, zee and me.. while waiting for seetha.
after lunch at kim gary.
typical singaporean shots. reflection from toilet's mirror.
and we played BRIDGE! haha. it used to be our favourite. and it was how we spent our time while being punished in dunman. hahaha. well, we were confined in hostel for a weekend, for climbing over the gate and trying to sneak in at 12am one night. for that 2 days, we weren't allowed to go out, and were supposed to report at the guard house every hour from 8am to 11pm. so we brought our pillows and cards down to the stone table near the lobby, and played bridge there whole day! it was thanks to that incident that we got to know ppl like akhansha, abhishek, deo, stephen. it's so funny to talk abt it now.
the good old times. i kinda miss those days. staying overnight at east coast to avoid curfew, hiding slippers in the room when we stayed up all night to chat so that the teacher on duty won't suspect that we were all gathering in one room, sleeping over at zee's room when munyuk's away (haha, eunice will sleep on munyuk's bed, seetha and I will cram on the mattress that we drag over from seetha's room, and zee will sleep on her own bed..), watching movies from somebody's laptop on one person's bed, irritating our prc roommates, fighting with the guys over the colour of the jersey that we wanted.. etc etc... all these just seemed so long ago.. and we've known each other for abt 5.5 yrs!
now that zee's studying in russia, seetha is studying in kedah, eunice is studying in KL and i'm the only one left in spore. we can hardly meet up. the next time that the 4 of us will meet up will probably be in a few years time.
eunice, me, zee, seetha and wanfen..
YongJian's
My younger brother turned 8 on the 24th! Brought him out for movies. watched surf's up.. the movie kinda suck. blergh.. but he somehow enjoyed it. haha. then we made him pose like the picture on the card that my sister bought him. haha.
YeanPeng's
3 days later was my sister's bday. her friends came over to celebrate before midnight. then we went out for dinner with the same bunch of ppl the next day. these ppl are my sister's friends since primary school. they've known each other for about 17 years? it's no wonder that i'm quite close to some of them cause i've seen them so often. haha.
Renuka's
from left: eunice, renuka, rumana, me, suetlee
yuups, renuka is back from the states! met her on monday night and on thurs to celebrate her belated 21st bday! there were so much food!! malaysian food somemore. she was so glad to see the food also cause she's been missing all these malaysian food. it's great to meet up with super old friends. just sad that there were only the few of us. others are either overseas or mia. and it's nice to catch up with them.

followed my mum to my younger brother's school, for parent-meet-teacher session. waited for an hr. it's interesting to see how young parents are so anxious to know more bout their child's behaviour in school. for my mum, it's more of, 'hurry up, dun waste my time.' you can't blame her, she's gone for tonnes of these things. haha. she has 5 kids. and she was talking to one of my brother's classmate's mum. in a way, i pity the kid. his mum was practically telling my mum how much homework she gives her son. monday-english, tuesday-malay, wed-maths... etc.. and she's planning to send her son for tuition. for goodness sake, the boy is only in primary 2. it's not surprising that her son is first in class. i'm glad that my little bro has more life and childhood, and is still the fourth in class! haha..
drove my bro for a movie after that! it's so rare that i'm allowed to drive my younger bro ard. haha. no one at home trusts my driving skills. sad sad.. the first thing my sis asked when i reached home was, 'did my car came back in one piece..' duhh.. obviously it did. haha.
we watched fantastic 4! i'm glad that the boy loved the movie. just that he didn't understand much bout the science. and i thought it was freaking cheap to watch movie in msia. haha. one adult ticket and one children ticket only costed rm11.
and it was pretty entertaining to feed my dog durian this afternoon. haha. the dog gave a very stoned expression, and it kept on licking its nose after that. hahaha.. my sister and I couldn't stop laughing. took a video of it. maybe i'll post it some other time. haha. i just hope the dog dun get diarrheoa tmr. heh.

"Stars And Boulevards"
Wait dear, a white horse is walking down my street here,
Your words are creeping at my feet
I fear, sunrise will come too soon and you'll disappear
Into the haze of this city and go south...
Look out, they're coming after us with big guns,
They're only gonna tell you all the bad things I've done
Even if they words they say aren't true they've won,
Now I'm left here dying in the sun
Oh...seems like I'm always on my own,
Seems like I'm never coming home
Seems like I'm always on my own...
All the stars and boulevards aren't close enough for you...
Late nights, won't do me justice
Cause when I drink...I just get so damn depressed,
And its not like, I ain't trying to get over you.
It's just hard to look at all the seasons, pass me over too...
Oh...seems like I'm always on my own,
Seems like I'm never coming home
Seems like I'm always on my own...
All the stars and boulevards ain't close enough for you...
One last phone call from you, it wouldn't hurt much,
Just like to hear your voice and pretend to touch,
Any inch of you that hasn't said it all or read it all or sung
My life away
just when I was hoping for things to be better, it has to be worse.
just when I thought i saw some hope, it seems like it's gonna turn out to be another disappointment.
why must the same thing happen to me again?

the past 4 days were quite well spent!
thurs, went to scout for peklyn's bday present with eunice at bugis and plaza sing. we got her a bass guitar bag! haha. it was quite weird for 2 ppl who don't know anything abt bass guitar to look ard town for a bass guitar bag. nevertheless, we found something that we thought that was quite suitable for that pig! haha..
fri was shopping day with kexi. shopped ard bugis area. bought a skirt and 2 pairs of earrings. helped joanne to collect the necklace that she ordered from a blog online. hoho.. she kinda reminded me bout my sister's bday! *gasp* luckily she reminded me. or not i would have forgotten bout it. blerghh.. then we bumped into johannes at bugis. he was still carrying his purple bag and was wearing his gold shoes. :S he kinda tagged along with us while waiting for a friend. and he was promoting his nusstyle stuff. had dinner with kexi, boyan, kane, huihan and peihoon after that. summary of dinner that day: kane is a bastard.
sat, met up with a primary school classmate!!! jolene sms-ed me to tell me that she's in s'pore. haven't seen her for years. tried to arrange to meet up with her when i was in klang few weeks ago, but couldn't set on a time to meet. so i was very surprised when she contacted me in spore! brought her around orchard area. she changed to a very business minded person. she's trying to start up her own business. so impressive. not like me. not business minded at all. only know how to spend money. dunno how to make money. blerghh..
jolene!! one of my closest friend from primary school! =)
sun was peklyn's bday! we went to the botanical garden for a picnic! so interesting! hahah. had a lot of food. chicken salad, tuna in mayo, egg salad, jelly, peach, apples, sweet potato, corn.. spent the beautiful sunday morning playing frisbee and feeding swan. the swan at botanical garden was super violent. attacked a duck! the swan tried to drown the duck... and i always thought that swan and ducks were good friends. haha.. visited the national orchid garden next to the botanical garden too! the orchids were very pretty!! i met up with baowei and tianyu in the afternoon. we were chatting at sakae in heeren for few hrs. it was basically a 'catching up with each other's lives' session. thought provoking kinda conversation. made me ponder bout few things after all the talks.
pek and her bday cake!
beautiful weather at the botanical garden! just perfect for a picnic.
yummy food! prepared by munyin and the twins. ehh.. i helped to shred the chicken! hahah..and i contributed apples! :P
the twins playing frisbee..
clockwise: eunice, huilian, me, esther, peklyn the bday girl and munyin feeding the swan our leftover lettuce
the swan got violent. was trying to drown the poor duck.
munyin, eunice and peklyn.
the pretty orchids at the orchid garden
while enjoying the aircon in the coolhouse. haha.
with baowei and tianyu
and it's kinda tiring to be in town for 4 days consecutively. shagged ahh.. but it was fruitful and i'm happy!! =)

ppl have been complaining that i'm not updating my blog. hahaha.. which is quite true..
anyway, i shall just put up pictures lahh.. hahah..
wanfen, me and eunice! we watched pirates at KLCC...
the cheesecake that i made b4 i came back to spore. initially i thought it was gonna fail, but it turned out to be nice! then i brought it back to spore. and forgot that it was in my bag. so it moved abt in the bag and because super disgusting looking.. blergh. peklyn still ate it. haha..
eunice, peklyn and me. we went and surprise munyin at her workplace during lunch. it was all the way in boonkeng. haha. that place is really quite ulu. mostly HDB flats other than a row of shops and a hawker centre near the mrt.
after the lunch surprise, we hung ard while waiting for munyin and huilian to finish their work. met up for dinner and then headed to the art museum. it was my first visit to the museum. and it's actually quite interesting. there were some chalcography collection of the Louvre Museum.
went for mentoring session at haven home on saturday. had paper craft session. and the end product is actually quite impressive! was hanging ard with the other mentors after the mentoring session while waiting for eddie to be free. met up with eddie, jungseong, owern, kongjien for dinner then went to wala wala after dinner. tianglim joined us at wala wala.
the past few days were dry run for Sheares Exposure Camp. the camp is gonna be next week. and it's gonna be funnnn!! at least the councillors had our share of fun during the dry run. hahaha. i have 4 free days b4 the start of the camp on mon. have to look for things to entertain myself. holidays are not fun when you don't have your friends ard or when your friends are working.
