Weekend Well Spent


My mum was infuriated over some matters so I tried to divert her attention by asking her to cut my hair! I should have known better to not ask an angry person do such things lest the fearful results. My mum was happily cropping my fringe away into some china doll hair! haha! What's worse was that I have a gathering with my JC peeps at night.

Lesson learnt: Never ask your mama to cut your hair for you. Especially when she's angry.

She tried to make it better by saying that I look alright in the hair. But I know she's just trying to make me feel better about the decision to pacify her through hair cutting. haha. I think I look like a sotong-monkey now.


"hello! I'm the new Miss Sotong!"

Pardon the messy shelves behind. My laziness to clean my room has caused it to be penetrated by dust. But well, I need to clear it soon. 7 more days only.. =(

Anyhow, I'm off to meet my JC mates at this Japanese Restaurant Waraku. I didn't realise that it has so many branches in Singapore. And I had never tried it before this. I know.. I'm so mountain tortise. Mr Liew Yew Tze ( yep! he's Chinese name is called you-zi! which is childish!) reserved a Tatami room for us. So we can keep all the nonsense to ourselves.


Some of the set meals offered!

The room looked as if we had to kneel down to eat our meals like those Japanese Restaruant you see in the movies and shows, but it actually has this hole below the table to let you place your feet in! So its like you are sitting on a chair but you are in fact sitting on the floor. Lol!

The food there was pretty good! And they had this M and R thingy where M stands for Mini and R for Regular. But I tell you the difference in M and R is uber big! R is like twice of M. haha! So if you go get the Rrrrrr!




Pictures of the food we had.

I had this super hot steaming udon noodles in hotpot with this thick gravy and most of them took the katsu set with udon and the curry don.



Before food came. Shiyun. Mel. Hui Zhen. After food came. Everyone looked happier!

We played our class game-Bridge in the room lah. haha! I'm the Queen as usual! yeah yeah! Bridge skills! Woohoo!




Peekturesss. Shiwen, mel, huizhen, huijun. All of the guys except shiyun.

Thanx dears for coming to the farewell dinner. And yew tze for your supposedly "treat"! haha. Will see some of you guys for the last time on tue.

Sat was spent exploring Katong! Hoho! Katong laksa here we come!! Oh oh! and they had some really nice buildings in the east side.


I like the colourful shop houses!

Isn't this like one of the most colourful shop houses you see in Singapore? Its damn pretty lah. haha! Ohoh! See that queue for the Aston's Specialities? I tried the western food there because its said that it is cheap and goot. But well, the queue is like not moving and I'm so hungriee, I don't think I can really wait for 1 hour. So poof! we went to have the all famous Katong laksa.



The famous shop with the laksa.

Surprisingly there were very few people in the shop. I thought being like the most famous laksa in Singapore, they would have long queues waiting to taste their laksa. But it didn't. Well, guess the novelty died down already. The laksa was not bad. But because I'm not exactly a laksa lover so I can't differentiate a really goot one from a goot one. I guess the soup is more coconut than normal and its not as spicy too. Go eat it if you have not and taste it for yourself! haha!




My hot chocolate latte.


Loves!!

Malaysia trip

Yeah Yeah! Finally did something productive today! I packed my bag! Not totally done but its a good start. Ziplock bag is really not bad when its comes to saving space! Its a cheaper alternative to those vacuum bag you see in those travel shops. Well, of course its not as good as those but for the price i say, its damn worth it! Tried to pack as much stuff into the luggage as possible! Gosh.. Qantus only allow 20kg of luggage. Which for me, is totally impossible lahhhh! I haven even clear my wardrobe yet and my luggage bag is full. Furthermore, the luggage bag that I bought was one of the bag with the biggest volume. Die. =( Every kg exceed is $24 payable!! How exorbitant is that?!



My luggage that like 9/10 full.

And I still have stuff that I haven't buy. Which is like quite alot. I kinda weigh the luggage just now. It stands at 27kg already. *Oops!* And its all clothes only. Without my essentials, my bags, my makeup, my toiletries, my shoes. This is gonna be bad.

Followed my mum and dad to do some shopping in Malaysia. Been quite long since I last went there. As the traffic was good, it didn't take long to reach there. I didn't really buy much. Bought the makeup stuff that I guess I will need over there in Australia though. Got my favourite mascara- Lo' real Double Extension! =)
2 liquid eyeliner, 1 pencil eyeliner, makeup remover, ZA true white lotion, ZA deep hydrating gel, beer hair treatment wax and my fake eyelashes. It's on offer there so decided to grab all those that's on offer! Wahahaha!

The stuff that I got today.

Not all that I need. Will have to buy more laterr! Somehow I feel that the clothes there like doesn't suit me. =(

Ate at the Wang Jiao Cha Restaurant with mum and dad. Pretty much like the ones we had in Singapore. But I thought the fried rice there is good! Haha! It doesn't look fantastic but it taste fantastic. The decor looks not bad too.


Picture taken there.

Tomorrow will be fun! Meeting up with my JC clique for farewell dinner.

My mum keep asking me why I didn't post her picture. Wahaha! She's damn cute lah! So I'll end off with our family collage that I make! I'm a computer idiot. Seriously. So I'm pretty proud of what I did. *Proud look*

Hearts!

Oh! Oh! I wanna post pictures of my bibi too! (he says I only post 1 pic of him, so I'll post a collage of him and me now!) =)


PS: Mitchie how? I need to sell my clothesssssssss and bags!! haha! Its taking up space.

My first attempt to blog!

I finally dragged my lazy ass up to set up a blog. Have been procrastinating for like years. But since I'm going Australia soon, I guess I will need a venue for all my whining and picture whoring and of course to share all my ups and downs with bibi. For him to see me when he misses me lah! haha!

I can only use the template given by blogger! Mitchie darlinggg! I need your help! Help me find a nice blogskin! Then I can start to post fantastic pictures of us! This is so much like a surprise to you right? I finally came up with it myself!

13 more days to flying off. To a place of uncertainty. I don't think I am prepared emotionally and mentally to go over. It still feels as if going Australia is a thing that I only need to worry next semester. I guess I have been pushing it to the back of my mind, putting on a facade, trying to kid myself and avoid facing the emotional disorientation. But time is running out, I really need to get down to do all those stuff that is important instead of nuaing away treating everyday like a holiday thats never gonna end.

My cute little brother! So hearts!




My bro's dumb didi dumb faceee!


Went downtown east for buffet. Downtown east was quite disappointing. I think its undergoing some major renovations thus lotsa shops were affected. =( Wanted to bowl and explore downtown east after the dinner but there was nothing to explore. In the end we went back home. Made me kinda regret the decision that I made a couple of days ago. But well, I thope everything's gonna be fine yeh! =)
