2011-01-07T07:51:00.002+08:00

alright here goes a short review of how my life is going so far:

1) been doing nth much these days, except hanging out with girlfriend and friends, but definitely had spent more time with family compared to the NS days

2) hooked on to purchasing stuffs online: my razer mouse, steelseries mousepad and just a day or two ago, my CNY clothes

3) just got a reply from RWS saying i'm going for an interview at 17th Jan, tentatively at the casino area O:

well ignoring the "nice" comments at the chatbox, here's my belated resolution for 2011:

get a permanent job i really like and earn some steady income
obtain a driving license by the first half of the year
be able to keep my friends close together, same goes for my family and of cus my girl too C:

well that's all for now..

2010-12-13T03:30:00.004+08:00

i know it's a monday, and it's already damn late
by right i should be asleep, but i just can't..
there's alot of things running through my mind right now,

and after thinking alot, i just came up with a decision,

i'm gonna quit my job today! having the feeling not to go work everday and practically doing nothing there except email and check some stuff in the internet and doing MINIMAL work i should be doing, i shouldnt waste their time and mine, that's it!

i'll be best do some serious thinking regarding what i should really do with life,
and last week bernard said something which is damn true but i always dont wanna admit it:

Life's really not easy at all..

2010-12-09T01:05:00.005+08:00

my razer abyssus is coming later at night!! wheeee~

2010-12-03T00:55:00.009+08:00

friday is here yet again, wouldn't be doing much
except try to fix my router
if not i'll still be using my laptop at my table in the living room,
just as what i did for my desktop - no difference!

recently i have this craze about razer products!
tho im not an avid pro-gamer, but it's cool to have quality products,
like how women buy branded bags and stuff
guys get branded gadgets (:

i've make a list of the items im looking for,
hope someone get it for me for christmas present, LOL!

first stop, the razer blackwidow keyboard!

next up, razer krait, old model, but i like the design and not too many buttons..

the cheapest of the 3, razer mantis control mouse pad

so yup, if any living soul wanna get present for me, this are the ones i want, oops!

2010-12-02T01:12:00.002+08:00

MORTON's STEAKHOUSE @ MANDARIN ORIENTAL HOTEL 210909

finally got the chance to try steak at this place, with kendrick. HAHA!
the steaks were SUPERBLY FANTASTIC!! and before you placed an order, one of the staff will give you a visual presentation of all the different types of steaks and their seafood

totally new experience for the both of us, cus usually at other places you would just look at the menu and placed an order. And guys i got to say, it's the MOST expensive steak i EVER ate in my ENTIRE life! their steak prices ranged from 80+ to 100+$. not only that, their mashed potato cost a freaking 16$!! we also ordered the Morton's Legendary Hot Chocolate Cake, 20+$, but it's really nice! hahaha

putting the expensive labels aside, their services were really good until every few minutes, the staffs would come to the table and ask if the food is alright and stuff like that..
food were really tasty and professional, when you ordered a MEDIUM done steak, it's really MEDIUM done(cooked on the outer layer, little pinkish in the middle of the meat)

the waiting time was pretty long, partly due to large crowd of customers eating. so picture time while waiting~

ambient was pretty good and cosy

it's really the best steak anywhere!!(in singapore at least)

one of the staff was over-helpful that she tried to help us take a picture when she saw us taking by ourselves, whoops!

Food time!!

this is the complimentary Onion Loaf they give for our appetizers
by the way, this is just a quarter of the whole damn loaf! (free!)

the super expensive Mashed Potato with bacon bits on top (16$)

My Double-Cut Mignon Filet (80+$)
it's very THICK, so i sliced it into half first, if not i'm gonna have a hard time cutting the meat!

Kendrick's Rib-Eye (80+$)
this is really how a medium done looks like, dont look at mine cus i asked for a little bloody oozing out from the inside, HAHA!

Morton's Legendary Hot Chocolate Cake, with french vanilla ice cream (20+$)

see the amount of thick chocolate oozing out of the cake!

thumb up for the steak!

totally in love with the steak (:

all in all, a very fantastic dinner, best steak i ever had and best price too.. LOL!

方大同 Khalil Fong - Wonderful Tonight

It's late in the evening
she's wondering what clothes to wear.
She puts on her make-up
and brushes her long blonde hair.
And then she asks me, Do I look all right?
And I say, Yes, you look wonderful tonight.

We go to a party and everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady that's walking around with me.
And then she asks me, Do you feel all right?
And I say, Yes, I feel wonderful tonight.

I feel wonderful because I see
The love light in your eyes.
And the wonder of it all
Is that you just don't realize how much I love you.

It's time to go home now and I've got an aching head,
So I give her the car keys and she helps me to bed.
And then I tell her, as I turn out the light,
I say, My darling, you were wonderful tonight.
Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight.

110709 Saturday

came back a few hours ago from yensiang's 21st birthday party..
i have to say im really impressed with the decorations she had made in her house
from the clothlines of pictures meant for each of the guest to the balloons, to the food and to the small smiley clips, i'm like "wow! she did and planned all these?"

and her nieces were damn funny, i showed them the sucking bottle trick, and surprisingly two of them were able to suck the bottle, then they keep doing and doing for like almost an hour
and that evil sooyin asked them to try suck the bottle with the face and other parts of the body, and they really did try, lol!

pictures to come when i have most of it..

100709 Friday

anyways had Hog's Breathe at CHIJMES on friday after bookout with yy and yensiang..
was supposed to be at vivo, but the branch is under renovation now o:
after a few times at Hog's, i can conclude outbacks is BETTER

watched 20th century boys II at marina after our late dinner

well i didnt catch the first episode, so for the first part of the movie i had really no idea what's going on, but even yensiang who did watched the first one also wasnt really sure, haha..
the show was pretty long, like 2.5hrs but it's pretty interesting and thrilling especially that we still couldn't figure out who's "Friend"
so have to wait till 29th august to catch the third and last episode of this thriller D:

anyways AJH introduced me to this program called Picasa, it's a really helpful program
i can just select the pictures i want and it will just auto collage the pics for me
somemore you still can shuffle the pictures till you liked the arrangement of the collage

here's some example on what i meant..

not bad huh? haha so next time i won't be spending so much time collaging the pictures manually, woot~

2009-07-05T17:06:00.009+08:00

An unusual saturday outing

yea cus this time not only had we excercise our mouth, but also our body!
went skating at pasir ris park, was pretty fun since all of us don't really know how to skate, lol

well since yiwen was not skating, she became the photographer of the trip, haha..

getting ready..

ok the next step after standing up is to balance yourself o:

and then strike a pose~

practicing "walking" with the skates. Lol

aww.. the first fall of the day - desmond! but he seemed happy falling tho

well all in all in the 1 hour of fun, all of us sustained injuiry
i had abrasion on my hand trying to stop my skates from moving
desmond had a few falls with a few scartches but nth serious
lastly hanni had a hard fall on her ass(see lah scold me somemore), HA!

after the gruesome hour of touturing ourselves with skating, we reckon we should have a good meal after that, so off we went to New York New York at E HUB!

our food and drinks

lesbains in the making? /:

finding something to do while waiting for our food

in the absence of KT, decided to make a face out of him, hahaha

hmm yiwen cant wait to get her hand on the cotton candy. lol!

today i was so tired from the training that i overslept on the train back home

Robin Thicke - Angels

All the things Ive done before this
They dont mean a thing
And all the words spoken before this
Wont be said again
Suddenly so much of me has
No need to pretend
Cause there's nothing like the truth
To bring her back to u
And everyone Ive met before this
Aint seen me with u

Angel My Angel Angel
Angel My Angel Angel

Youre the only one who knows what I go through
Sometime u feel it even more than me
And I dont know how I ever got by without u
Theres nothing like the truth
And Ive got nothin left to lose
And every night I thank the universe that I found u

Angel My Angel Angels
Angel My Angel Angels

And I dont have to wonder
What the world thinks about me
I know youre in my corner
Youre always surrounding me
With your love

And if we all explode
See we would never know
But I just hope the pieces of my soul
Reach out to u to find my angel

My Angels My Angels
Angels My Angels
My Angels

Dim Sum Buffet at DragonGate

been a while since i last ate here, ya it was the time where 24 outing was at. ha
this time went to eat dim sum buffet on saturday with the usuals. lol
was quite disappointed with the XLB - no soup inside, and the skin is pretty tough /:
at least the other items like porridge and my fav char siew bao are pretty good

yiwen looked confused on what to start with first, lol
des & hanni were more like having photo-taking buffet instead(oops!)

kt enjoying every bite of the food
his fav is the tart with grapes inside, he ordered like 9 of them for just himself! o:

jes seemed satisfied with the buffet while ber was busy telling everyone the erotic scene from the book yiwen bought, Lol

watched 17 again after that

turns out this movie was pretty good, first it's not so high-school musical-ish(tho there's still basketball involved) the story was pretty interesting too, nice ending too :)

last but definitely the most..

I
PASSED
MY
SOC!!!

whooo like finally, i thought i would be a goner and fail the course
now the promise(no beef until i clear soc) with myself is fulfilled, i can eat all the BEEF i can in the whole wide WORLD wahahaha!

all that's left now is the thailand trip, hope it passes by faster than expected
haha oh well 4 more weeks to POP!

2009-04-13T22:12:00.005+08:00

A Good Friday Outing at Illuma :)

Sniper the movie, hmm you can say it's basically revolves just around these 3 guys(picture above), about how they sniper each other and in the end only one survived.

went to imm to meet kt yiwen and hanni for lunch at LJS
then we headed on to chevrons to meet up with desmond to try the ktv there

tested a few different types of shots(on myself, heh)

singing any more songs, haha so around evening headed to bugis for dinner and hanni
help her sis buy ipod nano

looking at the blog, realised that it's not bad.. the clothing all these are pretty cute - same goes for the dog model, haha

so i'm here to help advertise her blog! those who have dogs at home might consider browsing the website(those who don't have should also browse too, oops!)

this is the blog link: http://ola-doggium.livejournal.com/

the clothings pricing are ranged at 10+ to 20+, comes with different size too =O
and accessories are at less than 10$!!

some examples..

well those interested can msg/call/msn me or something, i can help you all ask my sis =)

went to suntec yesterday with hazel to see the little nonya meet the fans session
the venue was pretty small so you can pretty much see all the people cluster together on EVERY floor, haha

so we decided to go up a few levels and squeezed into one of the little space near the glass panel, and then we waited for the stars for the introduction and talk talk talk..
and finally, olivia came out to sing the main theme for the show
forgot the name, but it's just only 2 words, lol
im quite surprised she could sing as well in mandarin, i always thought she could only sing in english

thereafter we rush down to level 1 and somehow or another, me and the shorty managed to poke our way to near the front barricade tocatch a close up glismp of the star, ou xuan is really pretty pretty, haha so is olivia

tried to took some photos of them

judging from these pictures, i reckon i should really get a new camera already
my red olympus is too old for the steak year =/

haha somewhere thru the session, we found a super good place to get a closer look at them - The Escalator, Lol so we took the one up and then down, taking pictures, oops..

after a while, got tired of looking at them, so we went to catch a movie instead
All's Well End's Well, the Hong Kong chinese new year movie
haha it's pretty much full of crappy jokes but it's pretty funny(that's what i think lah, ha)
those who like hong kong shows should watch this, haha

as for dinner, my LONG awaited food, STEAK at OUTBACKS!!
haha, well as for hazel, she ate fish and chips, which is pretty good too, compared to other western cruisine stores

well that's pretty much for now, got to book in earlier today
and outfield this week, AGAIN! crap, im so tired of ns life.. when is this ever gonna end!? gees =s

met up with yiwen hanni huiyi and jeslyn first, then wrote birthday cards,
and while writing, heard about someone somehow let loose of the balloon and it flew up to the ceiling!

here's a picture, haha!

in the end they still managed to get it down with the help of the sercurity guard there, tsk tsk..

around 5 45, apple kt bernard and desmond came, so we went inside to wait for the others (and eat at the same time, lol!)

blowing the candles

and we forced them to take out the candles with their mouths only, haha
bernard looks like joker in this picture, lol

KT's turn..

almost got smashed into the face!

luckily it's still in one piece (the cake), so they still get to cut it

dont' know why, but i didn't i managed to eat as much as the last time i ate in kuishinbo,
didnt ate much beef, only half plate of wanyu beef nia =/ (wasted..)

the aftermath..

and then we went to the outdoor playground to take group photos!

the ns guys

swung some monkey bars there and we used it as if they were swing trainers and pull up bar, oops..

felt kinda hot, so went back to aircon place, haha
and then we waited for AJH and TKB, these guys told me they were gonna be late cus they needa go cut hair and will miss the dinner
i told them to skip that, but still in the end, they came at 9 =/

a picture of the late-comers, at least they got an excuse for being late
they were searching for presents, lol

trying out the topman tops from ajh and tkb

not bad! (the maroon edges are actually glitterish, so it suits the holy one the best)

quoted from the girls, KT's one looked like superman-wannabe, the only thing he lack is the red underwear.. hahaha!

a black polo t-shirt from huiyi
fit him nicely =)

hanged around and chatted awhile
after that realised we had nothing much to do, so headed back home for a rest

hmm, on the way back home, i realised that the 3 of us (bernard, kt and me) had been bros for like 6 years already!! how time really flies man..
the days we played pingpong ball, chakteh and badminton were like only a week ago (yesterday sounds so unreal, so i used a week, lol)
how i missed the days man, haha although right now all of us are busy with out stuffs
at least we managed to meet up like during the weekends
i hope this can continue to meet up like this after 10 yrs, no maybe 20, ok make it 100!! HAHA!!

lovely song & pretty interesting lyrics..

"Come Home"

[Verse 1]
Hello world
Hope you're listening
Forgive me if I’m young
For speaking out of turn
There’s someone I’ve been missing
I think that they could be
The better half of me
They’re in the wrong place trying to make it right
But I’m tired of justifying
So i say you’ll..

[Chorus]
Come home
Come home
Cause I’ve been waiting for you
For so long
For so long
And right now there's a war between the vanities
But all i see is you and me
The fight for you is all I’ve ever known
So come home
Oh

[Verse 2]
I get lost in the beauty
Of everything i see
The world ain’t as half as bad
As they paint it to be
If all the sons
If all the daughters
Stopped to take it in
Well hopefully the hate subsides and the love can begin
It might start now..Yeahh
Well maybe I’m just dreaming out loud
Until then

[Chorus]
Come home
Come home
Cause I’ve been waiting for you
For so long
For so long
And right now there's a war between the vanities
But all i see is you and me
The fight for you is all I’ve ever known
Ever known
So come home
Oh

[Interlude]
Everything i can’t be
Is everything you should be
And that’s why i need you here
Everything i can’t be
Is everything you should be
And that’s why i need you here
So hear this now

[Chorus]
Come home
Come home
Cause I’ve been waiting for you
For so long
For so long
And right now there's a war between the vanities
But all i see is you and me
The fight for you is all I’ve ever known
Ever known
So come home
Come home

2008-12-18T15:50:00.015+08:00

*some of the pictures may appear too small, click on them to enlarge
*credits to desmond and hanni for the original photos
*credits to yiwen for providing the jokes for us to laugh

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

KL TRIP 14/12/08 - 16/12/08

Day1 14th dec 2008, sunday

this time we had 6 people going!
me desmond hanni yiwen huiyi & charmaine

met up at bukit timal plaza at around 7am, awaiting for the bus to come
in the midst of waiting, yiwen's parents chatted with me, bout NS and stuff
just as we were to board the bus, her parents told me something..

"if yiwen misbehave, you guys have the permission to beat her up, NO MERCY" Lol!

that was the first joke of the trip..
and then we happily board on the bus..

this is what should be on his mind at that time.. (typo here, should be beer & not bear, lol)

in between the journey, had a break at yongpeng, bought some ramlee burgers to eat
we were starving!!

alright back on to the bus for the rest of the journey

and finally at around 3pm, we FINALLY reached our hotel Royale Bintang
this time the bus trip took much longer due to the jam near the customs, but oh well, suck thumb

took a quick rest while unpacking our stuffs in the room, and of cus took some photos

then off we went eating & shopping, wooot!

lunch/dinner at Jalan Alor
(same place as the last trip)

right after that, we took a little walk down Jalan Petaling aka Chinatown!

inside the street is like a very cramp and crowded basar malam,
selling all sorts of things, ranging from bags to clothings to food..
you can find all those "branded" stuff here, if you know what i mean =)
they had prada, gucci, burberry, fred perry etc etc..

the best thing about this place is that you can bargain
me des and hanni were bargaining so much that we were addicted, Lol!!
managed to bring down the price by 4-5 fold !!

we walked so many rounds around the place that some of the stall owners regconised us(in a bad way), and didnt want to do our business(cus we are such great bargainers that they were scared of us, HA!)

Hanni was definitely the big winner here for th day, she bought the most stuff in the less amount of time! following behind is me and desmond.. then yiwen is third only because hy and charmaine didnt bought anything, hahaha oops!

Supper was KFC feast, brought back to the hotel to eat
washed up, played some cards and slowly one by one dozed off Zzz..

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Day2 15th dec 2008, monday

5 45am..

rise and shine! Desmond was the IC for the day "Reference Row Ready!"
Lol, the 2 of us were doing morning PT in the room, no run though, haha
after that all of us changed and went down for breakfast buffet
the food imo was not as much and tasty as the one from Berjaya Time Square
BUT! the room condition was definitely much better here at royale

reason for waking so early was hoping to get tickets at KLCC to go up the twin towers
but they were closed on monday, tough luck~ (the last time we went they were out of tickets, gees)

went back to our rooms to slack, until 10am and we went KLCC to shop..

halfway there, stopped by starbucks, me and charmaine went to get some dose of caffine..
while the rest started picture-taking

walked past the fountain, and like before, ready camera action!

continued walking, and we ended up at a park near KLCC
just as we were gonna play the playground there..
"BEEP BEEP BEEP!!"
quite faraway, we could see someone (from what i believed to be a sercurity) blowing the whistle towards our direction, somehow warning us that we cant play at the playground

WHAT'S WRONG WITH HER(the sercurity guard)!?
was there a sign that said "children only"? NO! (and we don't look like cute little kids meh?)
was there a sign that said "no tourists"? NO!

ended up we found some quiet and open space(miles away from the beeper)
then we played "1,2,3 mu tou ren"

desmond was the person calling out, while the rest of us were the ones trying to run to him and touch him, so when he called out "mu tou ren" we have to freeze our motions..
and that cheater yiwen pushed me and ended up we both went back to the start line =/

took quite alot of pictures right after..

finally in to KLCC to have lunch..
and guess what we were having for lunch!?

*drum roll"

A&W!! woooot!

remember those rootbeer floats and curly fries you had when you were young??

ok, don't really have any pictures from here onwards, so i'm gonna keep it short if possible..

shopped around the shopping mall, wow it's like suntec city, but better!
even the information board is advanced with computerised touch panel

on the way back to the hotel, desmond bought a pair of slippers for just 1.50RM!! (~75 cents SGD)
where the heck can you find slippers this cheap in singapore!?

took a break from the walking at our rooms,
then we changed our shopping destination to sungei wang

realising that we could not find much things to buy there,
we turned to times square to shop!
the bottom floors had those shop selling branded stuff
while the upper floors is just like far east plaza

broke up into 3 groups: me & desmond, huiyi & charmaine, hanni & yiwen
each of us bought a few things here and there, soon enough the shops were slowly closing down for the night..
all of us met up at Auntie Anus(Annie's, oops sorry i love to call by that name instead, just like i call the cookie shop "famous anus" haha!)
bought some pretzels back and makan~

that's pretty much for day 2
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Day3 16th dec 2008, tuesday

last day of the trip, didnt had much to do except to shop so we woke up at 7+ instead to have breakfast, then slowly packed and stuff and put it at the lobby, and off we go to shop!

we were back at times square(again), cus we know we still had so much more to shop there!
so we shopped in grps of 2..
after that, had lunch at marrybrown(but yiwen called it MARINAbrown, Lol wth!)

bought pretzels back to the bus to eat, and there we were, back to singapore..
dropped off at bukit timah plaza, by the time it's already 9+ i think..
quickly had dinner at mac's KAP, oh and we saw shawn-sideview-lookalike with spike HAIR there, LOL!

des sent hanni home
i shared cab with huiyi
while yiwen took cab home, alone, so sad =)

that's all for the trip, more details can be found at yiwen's blog

before i end this entry, one last picture..
enjoy!!

2008-12-17T15:44:00.003+08:00

finally back from KL!!
haha it's a nice trip, no needa worry about waking at 5 30am and stuff, lol!
bought quite alot, mostly for myself though, and some for my family, haha..

shall update again once i get the pictures..
in the mean time, here's a picture i had tried edited using photobucket =)

whatever you like!!

2008-12-11T20:34:00.008+08:00

"POP lo! POP lo!" that's the phrase you will hear alot during the parade
well i'm no exception either, i was so glad my torture had ended(well for now at least, before i get posted..)

the whole things took around 2 hrs, was happy to see my parents attended and somehow they seemed happier than me, as if they were the ones POP-ing
well i haven been seeing them smile so much for a long time now, good to see that faces again =)

mum putting on the cap for me

2008-12-08T11:36:00.002+08:00

Bon voyage to our stanley toh kian tiong for his trip to vietnam ~~to find a vietnam wife~~ for his family trip, haha!
right after the next day he come back to singapore, he's gonna be enlisted to NS
so i won't be seeing him for quite a few weeks man, not until christmas,
gosh gonna miss him =/

putting that aside, went out to celebrate jiaxin's birthday with KT desmond yiwen and hanni on sat at glasshouse fish&co, but right before that we all watched four christmas
quite a funny show, and somehow their families were pretty messed up and stuff
however, this show really sets me thinking of what to do with life, like how i'm gonna plan the road ahead etc.

the best quote from the movie i think would be "you can't spell families without lies"
quite interesting eh? =)

pictures are gonna come later, when desmond upload them (heard it's gonna take quite some time =O )

anyways, an update of what's coming up soon..

2 more days to POP
6 more days to KL trip
7 more hours to last book-in to tekong

well that's all for now folks!

2008-12-06T12:16:00.004+08:00

went kbox today with kt desmond yiwen hanni & huiyi
realised i missed out alot of new songs these time in BMT =O
guess it's time to update myself of the songs(soon..)

slowly but surely, "drama" had started in the room, but that's to be expected even though they are a fun bunch to be with.. other than that, there's the guy who wear smelly clothes over and over, keeps koping our food without even sharing with us his snacks(yes, not even once)
just for your info, he's called andy..

never mind about that.. anyways, i can't wait to go KL after POP
gonna do some shopping there and of course, eat lots of stuff(like never before!) tmr's gonna be an early book in, so have to cherish my time while i can,
so off i go to do my stuff, but before that, a pic to add to the entry..

haha, im not slacking 2 months for nothing man, i really did lots of thinking on my own
some of thoughts which even i would be scared of..

they have to write the food names on the white board before heading on to the next item

unfortunately, they didnt get to win the top 3 prizes
but they had quite alot of fun at x zone after that, lol

next was me and ber's turn,
then the teams assembled, and told that the first item was "Popcorn"

me and ber quickly run to E hub cinema area to get popcorn,
somehow we managed to finish something we usually took forever to finish in a few minutes

stuffing lots and lots of popcorns into our mouths

PopcorN
New York CheesecakE
Egg TarT
Tuna BreaD
Durain Cake SlicE

a Lil' update of my life currently,
other than literally slacking at home, here's what i did too..

2 weeks ago bernard(Holy One) treated me to HOG'S BREATHE at vivo,
yes STEAK! whooo, everything i ordered was on the house by him that day ( at hog's)
kt, me and him ordered different steaks,
three of them tasted as good, except they had different sauces to dip along with,
their steaks are as good as outbacks, both had lots of fats on the steak (yum yum!)
the shakes (vanilla, choc & strawberry) were pretty average tho, and one apple crumble for dessert we ordered, OMG 3 of us can hardly finish sia, it's super BIG !

so once again i would like to thank Mr Bernard Boey for the treat =D (thank you bro!)

on 08/08/08, FIR Concert!

me and kt meet up in the evening and took train all the way to kallang, then bus to indoor stadium, wow the bus packed until like it's never packed before
but still, we managed to survive till the stadium..
the concert was crazy, most of the people, including us were jumping anad singing like mad,
and you have to jump with the crowd in order to see the stage, if not you will be blocked, haha!
but so sad, they didnt sang the songs i was hoping they would:

Blue Doors Ahead & Ai Guo

i suay sia, always the songs i liked the singers never sing during their concerts =/
but overall it was a very good concert, tho critics criticised faye was out of breathe halfway through the concert, i believed everyone would be if they keep singing those high and fast paced songs throughout most part of the concerts eh

watched a few movies these 2 weeks..

The Mummy: Tomb of The Dragon Emperor
Fate
Money No Enough 2

Fate

the korean show, Fate, featuring alot of hunks and a few beauties..
basically, this show is about 4 buddies(from the same gang), and after trying to rob the money of their mafia boss's place, 4 of their fates changed, but most of the storyline revolved around the 2 guys in the poster, this movie have alot of action scenes, with a bit of gore and love

storyline is pretty confusing, but ending is still quite acceptable (oh ya there's a qi yu wu lookalike inside the show)

so i would give it 3/5 =)

The Mummy: Tomb of The Dragon Emperor

like a lot of reviews indicated, i feel that this sequel is not as great as the first two,
storyline is pretty much straightforward and easy to guess what would happen next,
the humor part is still not bad, but action scenes were just barely enough for a show of 2 hours duration,

3.5/5 in my opinion..

Money No Enough 2

just watched it yesterday(like finally!)
10 yrs after the first sequel, they are able to re-enact what the first movie was trying to imply yet introducing what problems our people are facing currently (like ERP, food prices increase etc)

like the first movie, they showed how money could snatch away people's bond with each other and blinded them from seeing the fact that the love and care for each other are still more important..

though nearly half of the movie was in hokkien, there were english subtitles for me to understand, haha (im a hokkien idiot, and partially chinese idiot)
the show had alot of very funny and "singaporean" jokes, yet still they managed to move people to tears with the touching scenes (psss~ yiwen, ajh and kt cried, hahaha oops!)
overall a very good movie

4.5/5 ! woot~

after the show, tkb, ajh and me sat down at the hong kong cafe to eat and chat abit, i haven really seen them for quite some time, haha so took the chance to talk to them, but the main topic was still bout NS, haha, what else man! tkb was talking about how to kill centipede if he met one during outfield or something, haha and snakes too, damn funny XD

John Legend / Ordinary People

2008-07-17T23:21:00.006+08:00

last last sunday went to IMM to meet up with KT and Desmond for the F.I.R concert tickets autography session..

there aint as many people as those ordinary autograph sessions cus they only sign concert tickets, ha! which is good since i don't needa queue for long for it..

was still early when we reached, so managed to take a shot of the stage and stuff..

we waited for like erm, at least 30 mins and listening to music played from the album over and over again, the stage was finally occupied by the MC of the day, Zhiyong from 933fm, but where's peifen?!

so the MC talked some crap and finally, they came..

surprised to see one member short? yes, it's ah qing,

he was absent for the autograph session for the 2nd time in a row, haha..

he was hold up at the airport regarding his NS issues (he still haven went for NS, surprisingly..)

so in the end, couldn't make it in time..

Faye sang 1 or 2 songs, cant remember, haha..

along with jian ning lao shi (for some reason, he got the face that makes me laugh, lol..)

i have to admit, Faye is pretty pretty, hahaha..

next was the auction, it was a package of 2 concert tix (it's at the FIRST ROW, center position), along with some goodies and jian ning lao shi' own private collection of all the albums from FIR..

starting bid was around 200+ and in a short while it escalated quickly to 400, then 600 and in the end, the final bid was at 700+.. me and kt wanted to purpose help jack up the value, but we scared later no1 wanna bid after ours, so we gave up the idea, ha..

in the end, this guy got it.. and get to sing a song with Faye and take pics =O

the goodies and tix

ah hah! finally the autograph session..

me and kt waiting to go on stage..

and wow kt did a brave thing, he helped me ask for FIR to sign on my tix "happy birthday" on my tix, since my brithday was on the day of the concert, thx KT!

here's the autograph with happy birthday =)

after that, hung out around IMM, and they went my house for dinner,

yup, that's bout it..

special thanks to desmond for the pics =)

萧亚轩 / 衝動

2008-07-09T05:08:00.013+08:00

Finally, we found a place that's better than ms clarity =)
it's NEBO CAFE! at AMK Hub, near the top floor (cinema level)
it was a blessing in disguise, supposingly we were supposed to eat fish & co,
but it was a very long queue, so desmond suggested a few of us went to check out the cafe..

here's the good stuffs bout the nebo cafe:

-no gst, no service charge (wooot~)

-unlike most of the additional set meals at other places,
where you can only order limited drinks and desserts,
nebo cafe don't limit you to any of it on the menu (REALLY..? yes!)

-you can play board games when your eating
(although they limit you to 2 hrs of gaming, but it's FREE! no additional charges for games if you order at least a main dish)

-the food is above average (at least better than *ahem*)

anyways pictures next.. =)

Kt & me

yiwen and hanni

hanni and desmond

ordering time..

act cute sia, OOPS =x

kt is still looking deeply emotionally at the menu..

playing taboo..

here's the drinks and food, don't ask me for names, i forgot almost all of them..
but i shall try to guess, hahaha..

this is err.. pink panther.. i don't know what's inside man, you gotta ask desmond!

ice cream soda for KT

hanni and me both chose the most ex drink, hershey's hot chocolate, (Lol, of couse choose the most ex man!)

yiwen's drink, got raspberry and 2 other flavours..

here are the desserts..

this is erm.. peach icecream top with biscuits and rainbow rice? haha..

ahh i know this one it's called "dusty road".. ice cream of your choices topped with peanuts, cocoa and malt powder, damn sweet, haha..

this one is a brownie topped with icecream, quite chocolatey too..

didn't take any pictures of the main courses, prolly we forgot to take le bah
i have no idea, ha..

anyways from playing the taboo games, we have found some classic jokes, guess who's the one?

-what's another type other than phython (ans:cobra)
that someone: CROCODILE!

-this is found in mcdonald's, double..? (ans: double cheeseburger)
that someone again: MCBURGER!

hahahaha oops.. i hope that person don't mind arh, oops..

well overall, Nebo Cafe is a good place to hang out and chill,
cheap food without gst and service charge, free gaming..
but the only main negative point is that it's too far from my house, sad..

good for those who live near there =/

2008-06-29T23:03:00.001+08:00

hmm back from KL..
lost my phone in genting, sad
shall update when i get pics from desmond and hanni, wahaha..

Five Times August / Wherever

2008-06-23T03:33:00.003+08:00

ahhh, didnt update for many days
let me wipe some dust with this song's lyrics

Wherever

It’s strange to me, I’ll give you everything
But you don’t know what it means
And I hate to be the one to disagree
But you don’t know what your missing

Cause I see inside you
I want to be the life of you
Cause you gave that much to me

Wherever you want me,
Whenever you need me
I’ll be waiting for my time to go
Whatever you’re asking
There’s no need to ask it,
I’ll be on my way to get it done

So I’ve laid it on the line, do you need a little time?
I guess I could understand that
It’s a lot to take in you wouldn’t know where to begin
But you won’t need to ever look back

Cause I see inside you
I want to be the life of you
Cause you gave that much to me

You know, I want you to know
You know, I want you to know
I could give you more the world and a little bit more

Wherever you want me,
Whenever you need me
IWhatever you’re asking
There’s no need to ask it,
I’ll be on my way to get it done

Wherever you want me,
Whenever you need me
I’ll be waiting for my time to go
Whatever you’re asking
There’s no need to ask it,
I’ll be on my way to get it done

FM Static / Tonight

2008-06-08T04:36:00.004+08:00

this song is great, been putting it on repeat on my way back home from dinner today =)

Tonight

I remember the times we spent together
on those drives
We had a million questions
all about our lives
and when we got to New York
everything felt right
I wish you were here with me
tonight

I remember the days we spent together
were not enough
and it used to feel like dreamin'
except we always woke up
Never thought not having you
here now would hurt so much

Tonight I've fallen and I can't get up
I need your loving hands to come and pick me up
And every night I miss you
I can just look up
and know the stars are
holdin' you, holdin' you, holdin' you tonight

I remember the time you told me about when you were eight
And all those things you said that night that just couldn't wait
I remember the car you were last seen in
and the games we would play
All the times we spilled our coffees
and stayed out way too late
I remember the time you sat and told me about your Jesus
and how not to look back even if no one believes us
When it hurt so bad sometimes
not having you here...

I sing,
Tonight I've fallen and I can't get up
I need your loving hands to come and pick me up
And every night I miss you
I can just look up
and know the stars are
holdin' you, holdin' you, holdin' you tonight

I sing,
Tonight I've fallen and I can't get up
I need your loving hands to come and pick me up
And every night I miss you
I can just look up
and know the stars are
holdin' you, holdin' you, holdin' you tonight

ANGELA CONCERT SINGAPORE 2008!

still waiting..

play some psp first..

and then the hall suddenly turns dark, the concert has started!!

First up was 梦里花, she wore this thick white fluffy robe, which resembles a sheep,
hahaha oops..

after that she changed to this white dress and danced to her fast paced song, 潘朵拉

up next was one of my favourite song, 手心的太阳

err i kinda forget what she sang here, but her dress was hot XD

she invited her senior, FanFan 范玮琪 to sing 如果的是

she sang a pretty nice song from her latest album, 是非题

She started off 不痛 by playing the Chelo (was it chelo? someone correct me)
and inbetween she sang one or two songs which i forgot is which, oops..

and the 3 of them sang the song, 仨人

then the two shi jies went to take a rest while 郭静 sang a soothing song called 我不想忘记你

next she invited a guy to sing 快乐崇拜 with her,
his rap was ok, but not clear enough.. haha =x

nearing the end of the concert, she sang a few pretty soothing and nice songs including
Journey, Over the Rainbow, 我的最愛 and 遺失的美好

she was gonna cry when she sang 遺失的美好 at the start, but she hold back her tears while the crowd was singing for her, until she continued from the mid section of the song..

i think this is the best pic taken by me for this concert, haha!

then she left the stage, and the crowd was shouting for encore!
but it was quite funny cus the people on the stage was already preparing for the next song
so there was really no need to shout encore >.>

she ended her concert with 欧若拉, pretty good =)

Angela going off.. can still see her head, lol..

that's was the end of the concert!

2008-05-18T02:39:00.001+08:00

watched Made of Honor with desmond, hanni and yiwen yesterday at marina
was pretty nice to watch this kinda genre of movie once in awhile
makes me think about some things..... yup..

anyways, right after that we went on to the flyer and they had their Popeyes there
the fries and whipped potato seemed nice =)
should try eating the meal someday
haha anyways KT, good luck on bringing her to flyer on monday
it's gonna be exploding with people there..

i left the flyer earlier to meet my family for dinner
and i forgot i already asked my sister to help me get bird nest for my dad's birthday
so i went on to get a polo-T too, my wallet.. >.<

by the way, work's going better for me now..
wasn't as hell as the first 2 days
however, the people there are very particular about rules
like you cannot be late, i was being told by one of the staff for being 5 minutes late!
it's not like i can make the whole company go bankrupt by being 5 mins late, i'm just a temp staff guy..

and we also couldnt use phone during working hours,
but who cares, im still using it no matter what =)

now.. to enjoy my long weekends while it still lasts..

about what?
who knows.. haha
but felt better after that, thanks!

anyways.. 20 more days to Angela Concert!

Snoop Dogg / Sensual Seduction

2008-05-08T07:52:00.007+08:00

Last Friday [2nd may] me kt desmond and yiwen(just tagging along) went for our job training at somewhere along macpherson road.
let's just say we went there just to take attendance and get our 12 bucks, lol.
cus we were supposed to reach there at 6 30, but we can seem to find the place, so searched around the whole area and called the person, then we finally found it, a small office at a small building =/ and ended up there at 7+

so after the whole thing, decided to take cab to geylang for dinner
we went to the famous beef hor fun stall at Lorong 9, and we ordered some sides to go along with it,
the food were delicious! we ordered things like coffee pork ribs, thai style tofu and of cus the beef hor fun..

desmond seems to be anxiously happy waiting for the food, haha

KT is chewing on the wet towel in the mean time to suppress his hunger =O

erm yi wen is pretty much dead exhausted from hunger since.. noon

Coffee Pork Ribs, the smell is so overwheming that it covered the smell of the other food,
other than the nice aroma, it's accompanied by delicious pork ribs infused with the coffee taste =)
4.5/5

Beef Hor Fun, hor fun was nice, not too soggy, texture is just nice
and the beef slices are soft, easy to chew on
4/5

Thai Style Tofu, the crispy tofu was cooked with sweet and sour sauce
the tofu was cut into smaller pieces which made us cant get enough of more, lol
4/5

right after the dinner we decided to explore the place and find our tao hui stall for desserts,
then we walked to Lorong 10, it was a road away from the main, busy road
and ya, that's where all the *ahem* were standing in rows, along the road, waiting for business..
the 4 of us walked along the whole stretch of road, can see along of uncles were there too, with their cars parked..

on to Lorong 12, there were still quite alot of them waiting along the road side,
and we noticed that they were divided into groups according to their nationality..
anyways, one of them called KT "yandao", HAHA!

once we reached Lorong 14, it's back to the main street and from there we continue searching for our tao hui

finally we reached our destination at Lorong 27a

-TAO HUI BREAK-

the tao hui is hot, smooth and declious!

the you tiao was super crispy, hot and long!

adding them together, there we go! makes you wanna sing JJ's "Dou Jiang You Tiao" as you eat
4.5/5

then yiwen's parents came and fetch her home while the 3 of us walked back to aljunied mrt station and took train home, was so damn full and tired but it was a nice day =)

so lastly, why always link Geylang to a place of Lust? it should be also known as the place of Heavenly food !

BuckCherry / Sorry

2008-04-29T05:44:00.003+08:00

gosh, recently my sleeping pattern had been totally turned opposite
it's like i'm sleeping when the sun rise and wake up when it's going back down =/
err i guess i needa do something about it before it becomes a very hard to quit habit..

anyways, today(28th april) i went for the job briefing at adelphi mall with kt and desmond.. at first we went to the wrong building, and ended up infront of the supreme court, Lol, and we were wondering for a second if the company is really inside the place, how "clever" of us to think that way, ha..

anwyays, it's a 1 day job doing marshaling or something during the Walkathon in may
hmm calculated the pay will be like 60+$? minus the transport and stuff, think we will end up with like 40$, good enough =)

in the mean time, i shall slowly but surely look for a part time job, haha who knows when..
