Lol, today, dunno wad's wrong with the weather. I visit my colleages once again at taka, last day of the mth, so tot of surprise them abit... Haha, also got helped out once i finished doing the last 55% of the 2nd book review of my dad at the library on lvl5... Juz nice, my bat was low when i finished, so i juz shut it off...

Then i went back to help, and saw this VIP, Mr Wang and his family. Me n Jing Chun Sis played with the 2 boys of Mr Wang, haha, play blueteck, hehe. Kinda fun, and i really love doing so, maybe my decision of becoming a pre-k teacher was nt wrong afterall. Hehe! We had a great time moulding diff shapes and creating things out of a lump of blueteck.

I stayed over there till 6+pm, and then it rained. I din know it was raining cos i was in B2.. Gt a shock of my life when i saw the rain, and it aint no small drizzle, it's sort of a downpour, juz slightly smaller. Somemore I was carrying a laptop and a taka bag filled wif food(cos i promsied my sis to buy fd back), and i was carrying converse sling bag... and i had an umbrella in my bag, but I simply got no hands to take it out and shelter myself to the bus stop. So i juz walk in the rain, like the song...haha. Drenched from head to toe, gosh, and the pc was so darn heavy...Duno wad's wrong wif my ez-link card... cant take the mrt cant take the bus...-.-lll

Then the air-co in the bus was so dam cold... and i was sitting near the window, right under the air con with my body and hands all covered with raindrops... Man, the 1 hr journey, my hands were freezing and my fingers cant moved... totally went numbed... Gosh... freaking weather, really bad time to bring my laptop and buy things hm at the same time in tis freaking weather... Br... go hm still stay inside air con rm... my fingers r still frozen now while I'm typing, keep typing the wrong things... -.-lll Hate rainy weathers... and always dun carry so much thngs if u nid to walk a long way w/o shelter, cos u wun hav a hand to carry an umbrella.

As promised, today i did take my pc for another trip outside the house, and i DID take the MRT, but din stop @ Orchard but went straight to City Hall. I figured since I've visited my ex-colleagues at Taka on Monday, I might as well visit those that are at Esplanade, and I can get away from the family conflict...Lol... Kinda fun, stayed at Haagen Danz, opposite the Teahouse own my my uncle and aunt, to finish up the 10% left in my dad's assignment, and also started abt 45% of the next assignment. It's also dad's, but he din ask me to do, but since I've got nth to do at hm, and i got the bk, paper, pen and pc with me, might as well do t before he start asking me to. Anticipate his moves, oh yea! Hehe... :)

Stayed at Haagen Danz, and drank a tall glass of Ice Lemon Tea.. yummy! It was a bit ex, but Haagen,Danz, you're paying for the dink and for the ambience, so can't b cheap. And brought 4 cookies, got discount cos I work at Teahouse... of cos, they're meant for my family(my dad, my mom, my sis and me) ^.^ We're going to have a wonderful time eating cookies... haha, my wishful thinking. But I really enjoyed today's outing, cos get to enjoy the ambience in Haagen Danz, and get to see my colleague and fren, kool eh? Haha god, love my pc, but keeps charging the battery...

Today was the first day spent outside home with my notebook pc.. The exact location is Library @ Orchard(in Taka). It was fun, but gotta admit, that notebook pc is so darn heavy. I today carried a bag which I'll b using in NP, and then carry my pc wif me... turns out, I'd rather hand carry then sling the pc over my shoulder wif the strap, cos if i do that, sooer or later my shoulder's gonna snap like a twig.

Today while taking a bus from Home to Taka, I met someone on the bus 167. He looked lot like a boy from my Pri Sch, same face features, same lean figure, still taller than me(duh). He looked alot like Siang Loong(yep, that's teh boy from my pri sch. He was my P1-P4 Classmate, then we lost contact). When i saw him, he glanced at my direction as well... Dun think he recognized me after all these yrs. So happens that he came aboard at Thomson Plaza, just oppositehis house(the one that i remembered him staying at)... I'm pretty sure it's him. One thing he changed is that he now wore spects... Well.. and he's grown more handsome *blush* :) He sat behind me in the bus and even though I'm kinda sure it's him, i din really say "hi" cos i may be wrong and dun think he'll remember who i am by now. So keep quiet is the best solution yet. Lol... Kinda weird to actually meet him after all these years on the same bus.

The experience was fun, and really kool once u get the hang on handling ur pc and bag at the same time while taking a bus. Like when u sat down or when u alight... All those factors that needed to b taken into consideration are like: The easiest way to do them w/o causingany disrupt to the others, the fastest way to get from ur seat to the exit door wif so many things in ur hand, and how ur suppose to tap ur card when both of ur hands are fully occupied... Now that's the hard part. Went to do grocery shopping at Taka, cos grams kept complaining abt No Milo, No Milo... Like having Milo in the house is MY PROB!?!? Sigh, oh well, at least i get to practice, sorta... -.-lll Hard and tiring. My right arm is sore by the carrying of my pc bag(wif my notebook pc, charger and adaptor in it. The bag itself is already weighing like quite alot, plus the pc... God help my hand!!!), plus 2 bags of cold storage plastic bags filled wif Milo, Milk, Saussages, Cambell Instant Soup, and 2 packs of chips...... So that my left hand is free to tap the EZ Card...!!!!!!!

Anyway, today i stayed at the Library till my battery in my pc was low... But I managed to complete my dad's assignment, abt 90% of it. It's abt a summary on a bk he lend me on Children. Lol, tml going back to the Library again, this time, no more grocery shopping, and this time, no taking bus, take MRT! :P Haha... Wonder wad it's gonna b like? Hm... No iea if I'm looking forward to it or am I nt. O well, gtg slp. Past 1am in Tuesday Morning, and I'm suppose to go Library on Tuesday to finish up the last 10% of Dad's assignment in the afternoon... Beauty Sleep, here I come! ;P

Today i had my 2nd tour in Ngee Ann Poly(NP).. 1st time was when I had to hand in a form for the enrolling thingy, an admin stuff. Well, both days, wad can i say, i din get the chance to walk around the whole place so the tour isnt really well-rounded, but at least i know where is this building and wad it's use for and such. Dude.. The convention centre is sooo BIG! And it's sooo cool to be inside. Everything is so awesome. The Notebook sales and Exhibition was held in the Convention Centre. I wouldn't know where it was until my dad took me there. Cos he always go there for meetings and all, so he sorta showed me around instead of me showing him around... Pretty ironic, since I'm suppose to be a student there.

Arrived there at abt 9+am, and we walked around viewing all sorts of pcs... They're all brilliant, mainly 3 brands notebook pc: Acer, Dell and ThinkPad. Seriously, even before we headed down to NP, we already wanted Acer, cos my dad and sis said Acer is the best out of the rest. Of course, we still take the time to walk around, look at their different pcs and check out their different functions. By the time we purchase the pc and know how to function it and all, it was abt 11+. We'd spent abt 2 hrs just in this convention centre, covering the Basement and Lvl 1. :p
The pc that I bought is Acer(go figure), and it's really kool, with wireless connection, blue tooth, 5-in-1 pic and all, and the connection is very fast, according to the guys who explained to us. ^.^ We believe them, cos 2 of them uses pc in their courses, and bth are NP Students.

Today was unbelievable and I will NOT forget this day. And we're suppose to fill in this form of purchase where i nid to write down my Student ID. My dad was kinda shocked that i had it memoized it. That's cos this course is all I want, my world pratically revolves around this Course: ECH(Early Childhood Education), sure I'll remember my ID. Rite? Lolz. Man, it was incredible, Im sooo looking forward to my 3 yrs stay in NP, and I've already made frenz, well, I know one fren online, he also study in NP, so kinda kool. And I also found out that my mom's colleague's son also studying in NP, cos met him at the convention centre. Sweet! :D

Today was amazing... now then i realise, for that mere hours of fun and excitement and enjoyment... hard work has to b put in beforehand. Lemme tell u the hard work was all worthwhile. Juz by planning the event, me and xinyi had to spend dunno how many donkey days trying to see who can make it, who can't, how to pass presents to those going, where to meet, when to meet, wad to do and things like that... Sianz... Who ask I'm the most kong4 xian2 de among the group of us? =.=lll Wen Hui gotta work, Adel in JC.. Darn Stress, Xinyi got attachment, liwen exams coming, jas quite hard to contact her, val's schedules r also busy... Get wad I mean when I say I'm the most kong4 xian2 one? I dun hav to work in March cos miscommunication...

I can't possibly say how much work has to b put in jus for a celebration for Adel. The older we grow up, the lesser time we have on our hands to organise such things like gathering or mass celebration and things... These r the things we gotta sacrifice as we grow older. This is often the reason to lose the bonds of friendship. So no matter how, at least a meal is a must! Friendship is impt in everyone's lives, and this is impt for the growth of teenagers, as frenz r the most impt ppl besides families and relatives.

The celebration... maybe I'm more anxious than the Birthday Gal... meeting at 12.30pm, reached there an hr earlier... :p Cos no idea if Swensen can chop place or nt, so go try my luck. Guess wad? Can't chop place... So i shopped around(i dun shop), and bought a file and a book on basic driving. I wanna drive.. love driving, so must learn theory first.... must pass.. Then March very very free, so buy the bk and study on it. and it got qns behind, so it's like 3-in-1(Notes + Qns + Ans)... Love it! ^.^

First, we went to Swensen for our really expensive lunch... Swensen, can u imagine the cost for 3 ppl? Overall it was abt abv 50 bucks... so Xinyi and I split cost to treat Adel, doesn't matter, as long as we had fun. Adel ate Fish 'n' Chips, I ate Salmon Mushroom 'n' Baked Rice, and Xinyi tried the Chilli Fish Pasta... Then we ordered a Banana Split for dessert, 3 ppl sharing a banana, just the right amt, cos we were bloated when we finished our main courses. Wanted to order Banana Crumble, but then, have something nice and cooling also gd, better than a sizzling hot dessert, plus that weather is so darn hot!

Then Adel suggested Movies... I already spotted that coming, so since I'm there early, I went to GV to check out Nanny McPhee's time slots available, cos I know Adel loves to watch this kind of magical movie. Yep, we intended to watch that(juz as i expected), but then the furthest we can get is the 5th row from the screen. If we ever take that row of seats, by the time the movie ends, our heads would b tilting backwards, nable to move due to the cramp. -.- So we gave up on that idea... But we chose the next best thing: Yours, Mine and Ours. It's a comedy, and really great show. It's abt 2 adults, dealing with 18 children. I can't imagine having 18 brothers and sisters living together under one roof.. sure's gonna be messy. The mess is being reflected in the movie, and it's the mess that makes the movie so worth watching. $9.50 on a tix for that movie in a weekend is worthwhile. Hilarious, Exciting and really, you can laugh till your cheeks are sore(that's wad happened to me), or laugh till your stomach ache(that happened to xinyi).

After Movie, we decided to head home, by that time it was abt 4+ going 5... And Adel needed to go to sch the next day, and she's nt suppose to go out on Sunday, esp nt when it's the day before her sch reopens. So we also din want her to get scolded for going hm late, cos i know for sure my folks wun let me even step out of the house too late if i'm havng sch the next day. So Xinyi and I went hm in MRT Train, while Adel went on seperate ways.

Bottomline: This B-Day celebration is the best, cos of our diff time schedule, yet we could still gather together, though only the 3 of us. It really means alot to me, and when I saw Adel smiled and enjoyed herself, all the hard work put in beforehand was all worth the time and effort. I think Xinyi thinks likewise too. Hopefully next time we could have a bigger group celebrating one another's birthday, maybe even call on our teachers to accompany us. :p

Wow! :O Yesterday was FUN FUN FUN! I'd never had so much fun with ppl I met only yesterday. Wow! I didn't regret going, really. It was the best Chalet ever! Maybe cos Id nv been to a Chalet since Sec2... which was like 4 yrs ago. Yesterday I met up with Jocelyn(my amkss npcc junior) at City Hall, then we carried 3 bags(she carried 1, i carried 2) and we walked thru City Link to Marina Sq to buy fork for the cup noodles, we also brought sparkles and a lighter. So my left arm was aching by the time we got to Pasir Ris MRT to meet up with Ian, Lional and Francis... Lucky got Ian n Lional to help us carry those bags of snacks. We at first wanted to walk, then we still took the bus which was really much of a better choice even though Downtown East was only 1 stop away.. =.= Then when we reached the ticket booth, we met up with Adeline and Alvin who brought us to the chalet, which is at BlockA...Chalet no. was A1132.

The room was quite small, but we still managed to move around, hehe. We brought out all the snacks and put at the counter then the boys played PS2(Ian, Lional, Francis), While listening to music on Alvin's laptop. Then the rest of us(Adeline, Me, Jocelyn, Alvin. Francis later joined in in Uno. Kym n Sylvia also joined in Poker later on) we played Poker and Uno. Then the rest also arrived at around 5+,6+...Including Bei Hao, Apple, Sylvia, Kym(Sylvia's fren). It was fun, esp the Uno game, cos BeiHao was like hav no clue or watsoever in the game, so we kept on teaching him and laughing as we go along. He's so blur, yet cute..Haha, this is wad u expect from a Lower Sec boy. :P It was really fun.

At 7+, we headed for dinner, mainly Jocelyn, Adeline, Alvin, Francis, Lional, Me, Sam, Nick(Sam and Nick joined in around that time). We went BK-ing! Then Yi Jun showed up, nt to meet up with us but with his frenz, but he still hanged out with us in the Chalet after our dinner. Francis had to leave early, and Ian went to Wei Wen's band concert so didn't join us for dinner. My digital cam was inside my bag all the time and i didn't even get it out to snap a few shots... =.= Totally forgot cos we were having too much fun. I kept laughing and giggling and smiling the whole time i was there till my cheeks were a bit sore... Haha, great fun, great enjoyment, gr8 Time! This Chalet was better than I'd expected. I thought like, I'm only seeing the rest for the 1st time, sure nth to do, or got nth in common... Turns out, it was the best. Alvin and Adeline, they adults already, but they really connected well with the rest of us whom were younger than them. Everything they talked abt always ends up with Laughter or ended with us laughing along with them. :D

After dinner, we headed back to the Chalet room and started a game of Mahjong. Sam brought her guitar, so we(Adeline, Me, Sylvia and Kym) were playing the mahjong then Alvin strum the guitar, with the rest playing PS2... :P Ben lai I shouldn't b playing mahjong outside house... but nobody knows how to play there and Adel was getting abit pissed off, so i just like Fu He abit. Won 2 rounds outta 3... very small, but we had fun. Then Jocelyn and I went home with Yi Jun sending Jocelyn out to the Taxi Stand. Ben lai we're going to J8 MRT Station cos Jocelyn stayed nearby, but then we ended up going to Jocelyn's house, near her house. So I send her home first then I went home. By the time I reached home was abt 10.30pm.

Best Chalet ever, too bad my frenz couldn't join me, or else they're gonna b so sic! :) Haha... great fun, nv knew I could have so much fun. Finally i get my wish, to meet up with the frenz I'd met online and knew for more than a yr. Woop! Gr8 beginning, Perfect ending! :D:D:D

We're so gonna have a lot of fun! Woop! Can't contain the excitement cos Mom gave the thumbs-up! ^.^ I din realise she'll just gave the thumbs up, and no curfew! But I've always had no curfew, cos i h8 staying out too long... esp shopping and all... But tml, it's gonna b fun fun fun! Cant wait to meet them at PR MRT tml in the afternoon. =D

Monday... I went to Esplanade out of curiosity wad the new staff looked like... Nt bad, looks honest, and kinda alright... I stayed at TH @ Esp till abt 6 plus then had dinner wif Wen Hui... My uncle and Auntie popped by in the late afternoon, so they were shocked to see me there. Then my uncle taught us Teochew Tea Brewing method which involves "Shaking the teapot" and "Swinging the teapot" =.= My translation is bad... do forgive me. Kinda fun, watching my uncle did those 2 steps... but I know if I were to do it, once I'm done with it, there's no more tea left in the pot... =P HeHe... ;D

Then Tuesday, I went to Taka after my visit to the dentist... to look up information on Early Childhood Education. The closest I get to were parenthood, pregnancy, parents-and-children-relationship kinds of things... I remembered my dad said these kinda books can make me learn something from it even though it's abt parenthood, cos they go into the depths of the children's problems and their mndset and how parents should behave... things like that... So i snatched 2 bks from the shelves to read on and make notes... Then i also go visit Jing Chun Sis and Annie Sis. Surprisingly, my uncle and auntie turned up again... =.= Dunno if it's their routine or am i just unlucky to meet them when i go visit my frenz working... But honestly, if nt for my uncle, we wouldn't have sold over 700 bucks worth of items to a customer... All cos of his San Chun4 Bu2 Lan4 Zhi1 She2 we got the deal. And the sales.. was already more than that of yesterday when only it was half the day gone by... ^.^

Tml, going to Esp again, maybe bringing my Pu Er Tea got o TH and brew for the new guy and Wen Hui... Yummy.. hope they like it... Nt to emntion go to the lib and find more bks on Early Childhood thingy... TTFN

I MADE IT! Into Early Childhood Ed. I've got alot of ppl to thank. My parents, my frenz, my relatives, and of cos Kevin, who's always been there to support me. Woop! Nv felt so happy in my life... Kinda heaved a sigh of relief once i knew the results... Can't be happier... This kind of feeling is the best and the greatest! Jing Chun Jie ask me to return to Teahouse and help, and I'd promised her to drop by whenever I'm free to lend them a helping hand... :)

Such a Nice blog skin..... Thx to my sis... really nice one. While I was choosing this skin, I thought of Kev... and this skin kinda reminds me of the relationship that I'm sharing with him Right now...... =.= Dunno if it's gd or bad or both...

Everything abt this skin is perfect, it's just that... WHERE IS THE ARCHIVES??? I finally realise that the skins that I'm into dun have Archives... -.- Is it a coincidence or just plain unlucky?

I wanted to tell him firsthand that I've changed my blogskin... but he's so busy at wrk... dun wanna disturb him... Think have to wait till Fri to tell him... Then today went to Taka to shop around for a present for someone special and someone i treasure... Looked for more than an hour, and finally decided to buy something which is totally cant b found in Taka... Kinda waste of time... But at least it let me seen all those great choices, so next time if i needed to buy some presents, I know where to get 'em from... :p

Yesterday was my last day at work, and I worked at Taka for my last day. It just so happens that my last day is also the last day of the month... Ppl might think last day sure got alot to write de... Sadly, it's nt in my case... Nt much things to write though.

Yesterday sales was pretty good, we clinched over 700 bucks of deals... kinda alright, though we were hoping to get over 1k... :p Highly impossible though... sales r going down like stock market.... Even if it sometimes rises, it din really rise that high. We were like hoping someone would buy all the teasets in the shop or all the tealeaves... woah... then it'll be gr8! :D

Yesterday it was suppose to be only me and Annie sis, then my cousin joined in, cos Tuesday, it's Stock Day... so he came down to help us pack the stocks and all... I also got my salary... this month's the least out of all...Then Annie Sis brewed 2 pots of tea, both Oolong, 1 Taiwan(High Mountain Oolong Tea), 1 China(Tie Guan Yin). When the Taiwan Oolong tea was finished, I brewed a new pot of Taiwan Oolong, just diff quality of tea. The tea i brewed was Chun Yu Xiao(another kind of Taiwan Oolong which taste quite like High Mountain). It's got those coconut kind of scent, plus abit of flower aroma... hm, u gotta smell it to believe it.

It was quite alright, yesterday... Nt much of a business so me and Eddie just do our own stuffs while Annie Sis arrange the goods. We did help her out, whenever she needed our help. Eventful...? Can't tell... I just know that it's nt Boring. March... staying at home and rot... But I'll drop by Esp someday.. to visit Wen Hui, and also to see the new full-timer, his initials are the same as WH de... TWH. Only he's call Tay Wen2 Hui1... while Wen Hui is Toh Wen2 Hui4... yet their names sounds very alike.. hope i dun call wrong... =p
