stuck at home for two days, no thanks to gastric flu, and my sister who passed it to me.
and now i've passed it to my mum and the other sister as well.
haha. like some sort of baton relay.
so i've wasted two perfectly good days! (which could have been spent on my hol hmwk. :/)
this just had to happen.
gastric flu's just like food poisoning plus a fever.
rlly terrible.
on the brighter side, i think i might have lost a kg or two. :D
so sorry to those people whose smses or calls i've ignored, its hard to reply when i'm like sleeping/half asleep for the whole day.
just got the NEW TIMETABLE.
super shocked when i saw it.
LOL. mr yip KW is 02/06's official pdg tutor for 2007.
jazreel must be bouncing up and down with excitment now. X)
oh well.
let's just continue to keep our hopes up for a good year! (:

24 dec Christmas Eve
dated teng and chuan to vivocity.
first time thr! :DD but thr's nth rlly for us to shop, all branded clothes.
dined at the white dog cafe. hahah.
funny name for a restaurant, but the food's quite delicious.
i had nice fish and chips! :DD
after dinner we hopped arnd vivo and took some photos.
pity it was raining then, so we couldnt take much photos at the skytop garden. ):
shopped arnd somemore, then me and teng mrt-ed down town for countdown.
HAHAH. BIG mistake.
we walked arnd cine and waited till 11 plus before we go out to the streets.
super horrible la, those foam spraying people.
if they see tt you're reluctant to get sprayed they'll purposely aim those cans at you.
the government should just ban those spray cans!
they deplete the ozone layer okay. wht's more they're hazardous to people's (mental) health.
me and teng were emotionally traumatised by those spray cans.
so much so tt we practically raced through the streets and praying tt we can find somewhr safe.
our 平安夜 is not 平安 at all la! LOL.
we managed to FIGHT THROUGH those foam spraying idiots, and finally sought refuge at the starbucks cafe. :DD
settled on the big comfy sofa in starbucks and watched the crazy people on the streets through the big glass window.
we felt super insecure whenever someone opens the door cos we were sitting very close to the door.
the caramel frappucino rocks la! got the christmas-y taste. ((:
talked TALKED TALKED TALKED in starbucks until arnd 3am.
the stupid foam spraying crowded dispersed alrdy so i thgt it was quite safe to go out.
strolled along the streets and took photos of the christmas trees and lightings.
then two lame ass guys popped out and sprayed the ribbon thing at us.
still 'merry christmas' us somemore. ASS eh.
after tt we sat at lido's mc cafe and talked somemore till 5am.
actually my eyes were half closed alrdy la. i kept whining and whining tt i wanted to go home and sleep.
luckily teng's wushu snr came to fetch her, so she let me off. :DD
i swear i'll be a good girl and not step into town anymore during countdowns.
25 dec Christmas Day ((:
slept for only four pathetic hours before my auntie dragged me out for dim sum at TPY.
din eat much, cos i dont like dim sum. X)
went to eat at chomp chomp in the evening with my mum and my sisters.
super long since we last went thr to eat.
i rmb long long time ago my whole family will walk thr and have dinner once in a while.
hahah. but i think it's like more than five years since i eat out with my dad.
he doesnt rlly think much of family bonding and stuff la. :/
this is one christmas i'll never forget, <3
stayed home tdy.
partly cos it was raining like mad all day long, partly due to my restlessness.
but i cleared my study table and its damn neat and clean now!
super BIG sense of accomplishment.
too bad i forgot to take the before-and-after photos. X)
i rlly doubt the neatness can last though, once school reopens. ahahah.

dragged myself up this morning to go for mac ritchie run. havent done that in ages. :/
big big big accomplishment ehy. hahaha.
thanks alot to shan for her consistent nagging encouragement throughout the forest trail! :DD heh.
super alot of stamina la. can run in front of me and keep shouting all the encouraging words.
kudos to shan! HAHAH.
my 2007 new year resolution is to go for runs every saturday!
hahah. X) shall go train up my stamina agn so i wont have such a hard time the next time round.
the rain didnt exactly give us an easy run too, la.
imagine running on the muddy and squelchy ground, and hopping over puddles of water plus having to cross over the fallen logs.
like some sort of obstacle course. hahahaha.
i rlly rlly hope wht coach said doesnt come true. ))):
sat on the most posh 132 i've ever seen on my way back. :O
they have comfy sofa seats and those lounge chairs. all in white leather!
so the whole interior of the bus was red and white.
VEH GLAM! hahaha. i think they should make all buses like that.
but the seats are quite limited compared to the normal sbs buses. so, not practical.
anyw, think they're only for the x'mas and new year period.
hope i get to board such buses agn!
WHEE. took some photos, but couldnt upload them agn. bahhhh.
and i discovered that my phone's cam is spoilt. LOUSYYY.
cant take photos anymore! sad.
any good phones to recommend?
Friday, December 22, 2006
heh, wanted to blog ytd after trng but i guess i got glued to the telly. always happens when i get started on drama serials. i'll just ignore everything until i finish them. X)
no more working at RTC. until the 31st.
just when im starting to get the hang of this waitressing thing. hahah.
didnt want to stop work so early, but school and squash are still priorities. :/
oh well. i've learnt many many things from my partners and it's all good experience. :D
you know those kind of sovenirs you always get to take home after weddings? hahah. yupp. we took some home for remembrance sake. the bell's rlly cute! and it sounds just like the ice cream van bell. :D
though i always complain to shan and jas about how tiring and gruesome work can be, i was still quite sad on the last day of work!
think i'll probably never see the people at RTC again la. ):
had SQUASH chalet last week.
it was just our luck tt we had our bbq on the day of the longest lasting rain ever.
hahah. but we improvised and came up with a man-made indoor bbq pit!
candid shot of the girls! we were celebrating kia wee's birthday. (:
super foggy! see how baddd the weather conditions were.
the dumb pyramid foundation. hahah. shan finally got her wish to be the tallest among us. LOL.
us and senior rachel. ((:
chalet was quite fun, except for the fact tt ours was a function room with no beds and no bathroom. :/ so i only slept for an hour on the chairs.
watched many movies though, cos the room had a huge projection screen. :DD
we were all staring blankly at the screen cos it was arnd four in the morning. hahah.
all in all, chalet was quite fun except for the raging storm outside. hahah.
got to wear our squash tee (this time it's printed!) and try out my new cam. :D
yupp got my cam alrdy. exilim s770, nice big lcd screen. i love the anti-shake function.
went home in the morning the next day and sleep for eight hours straight.
i cant sleep without my comfy bed.
actually, i cant rlly sleep anywhr else except on beds la.
trng was good ytd.
coach bought us RED BANANAS imported from hawaii. hahah. coolness.
but its like super ex. ten bucks for a comb of red bananas. :/
i must admit, that it hasnt ever occur to me as a possibility until ytd. its either this or that, thr's no other way. but sometimes, i wonder if its rlly worth all that. sometimes in life, rlly, you have to let go of some things in order to get some others.
okay, shall stop blabbering nonsense.
christmas is coming. :D
but i havent got anything planned for christmas. probably stay at home and sing christmas carols to myself.
):
someone, ask me out!
ay. the holidays are ending soon.
year 2006's jogging past at a super fast pace.
i wonder what will 2007 bring? (:

took part in the Amerpro tournament organised by Singapore Polytechnic.
organising comm was so lousy.
they only sent out smses to inform the participants the midnight before the tourn starts. :/
made up half my mind not to go, but i still went in the end.
quite glad tt i did, cos i gained alot more match experiences.
and the shirt's nice too!
but it's got another HUGE marigold advertisement on the back agn. X)
went back to school on wednesday and thursday to warm up before rushing down to SP for the matches.
did some drives and practiced my drops. :D
just so tt i wont freak out too much and make too many mistakes.
played yuannshan for my preliminary match, nj girl ong wee wee for round one, sharmine from tpjc for round two.
ling han from nygh for round three.
hahah. sad to say though, lost my round three match.

just ate hotcakes with my sis at the macs near my house.
favourite breakfast! (:
talked alot, hahaha.
kids nowdays scare amaze me.
instead of enjoying their ermm carefree childhood, they're fighting to grow up, to become the age tt they're not yet ready for.
haiyo.
my primary five meimei thinks she's mature and all tt. LOL.
thinking is different from being. hahah.
she doesnt even enjoy half the things which i used to love when i was her age.
barbie dolls, polly pockets, enid blyton, etc.
now it's the computer, makeup, fashion and shopping for her. :/
GOODNESS.
i had no idea the generation gap exists. hahah.
kids, stop fighting to grow up, embrace your age please.
you'll have lots of time to be a teenager.
working four days next week. -faints
think i cant survive if i had to OT every single day.
but i must earn enough to buy my dream phone. )):
K800i!
then i can photo blog. dont need to upload photos until so pek chek.
but then i still want to keep my old phone. if not all my msges will be gone la. :/
and i went to dig out my old old 'Faraway Tree' storybook to re-read it for the thousandth time.
:DD
hahah. favourite book. i never get tired of it no matter how many times i read.
i like the 'TWO' song by the saucepan man!

damnnnn tired.
worked from 1730 to 0430 on friday, and 1800 to 0300 ytd.
OT for two freaking straight days.
friday's event was some charity ball.
all the bankers, CEOs, doctors and their wives graced the event.
hmm, they all lead high lives.
rich, but superficial.
OH. the Queen of Indonesia turned up too. (my partner made the mistake of cutting across her pathway. and you can see all the captains staring daggers at him.)
you can totally see the fake smiles of all the tai tais.
i bet they practiced in front of the mirror a hundred times everyday, while counting their diamonds and jewels. :O
there was this disgusting woman who wore this LOWWWWW cut dress despite her lack of development in the chestal area. hahah. she went around hugging every single guy she could find.
ohmygod.
the organisers hired a circus performance for them after the dinner.
there were the acrobatic stunts, balloon makers and what-have-you.
ehyyy but the food was not bad. [the barman saved a piece of cake for me. ((:]
didnt rlly have to do much for the friday event, cos they had western dinner.
ytd was a wedding event.
urm. hahah. was in a kind of rush, and my partner insisted on disappearing at times when i need his help. :/
tottered around in the stupid court shoes and attending to the guests.
served drinks and portioned some courses like the sharks fin soup.
the weirdest service requested from me was a shawl.
goodness la. some china person said tt he was cold and asked for a shawl.
CRAZY. hahaha. anyhow got him a towel from the banquet store.
i still didnt learn how to cut the fish.
made my partner do it.
one waiter got scolded by the guest cos he made a mess of cutting the fish.
ass la. what's the difference! everything's the same in your stomach. LOL.
i shall not drink ice water next time i eat at banquets.
HAHA. might as well dont eat EVERYTHING.
i know i've said it before, but the cutlery freaks me out.
after 'washing', there'll still be pieces of veggies and whtever stuck on the forks etc.
it's just tt we wiped the cutlery before setting it on the tables.
if it's THIS hygenic at high class ballrooms, imagine the hygiene at hawker centres and food courts. :/

went town for some night shopping with my darling teng just now. :DD
cos she's on a hectic work schedule, and so only can spare me time after work.
got my M.A.C foundation which cost a bomb.
but i heard that it's good.
the coverage is not bad, and it's quite lasting as well.
oh well.
i wna get the bronze eye shadow! but i wont have much use for that though. :/
shop-hopped around.
teng spotted a shirt for me while we were browsing, and i just HAD to buy it.
see! it has my name on it. (: hahaha. NICE.
and we got matching coin purses from fourskin.
very glam ones. heh. we're leading tai tai lifestyles. LOL.
darling got the black one with gold words, while i got the white one.
i go well with white and darling goes well with black.
we're 黑白配!
hahaha, im abit high now. dont mind me. ;)
sat down at long johns after all the shopping to eat, and babble about our work.
rched home at ten plus. with poor, tired legs.
and i still got work tmr. -BIG SIGH
ohh i got cute pooh photo albums just now too!
shall develop my whole year's photos soon.
i think the doctor's magic potion is working. :DD
