as what i've mentioned earlier, we went to Xin Wang Restaurant at Northpoint. the restaurant with all the red chairs. HAHA.
i was standing outside waiting for them to come, and then i saw, in the distance, xinru with one hand in my ahng's hand and the other hand in my cousin's hand.
SUCH A SWEET SCENE RIGHT AWW.
happy happy meal!
ahng: "this one you want pai1 mah?"
me: "yao4!!!"
ahng: *laughs*
let's take our attention away from food.. :D
0 stars were shining bright even without the moon
that's very fast right! POOF and december has flown past! (and i haven't even talked about november, october, september, august, 2008, 2007, 2006, 2005...)
:O
time passes so quickly!!!
i'll DEFINITELY elaborate on this if i update tonight. the issue of time passing quickly has always been a forte in my blogging career after all.
and i HAVEN'T MADE MY RESOLUTIONS YET! double :O
actually i don't know whether you should make them when the new year intrusively screams a big hello in your face, or before that. but i just know i always make it before, so this year shall not be an exception!
AND I ONLY HAVE TWO DAYS! :O
anyway i'm going out for lunch at Xin Wang Restaurant at northpoint later on with my AHNG, COUSIN, AND XINRU!!
yay i am so looking forward :D
we wanted to go to crystal jade originally but plans changed. i've been craving for the very very nice pi dan shou rou zhou from there since yesterday night but never mind lah, xin wang should be nice too!
the only problem is i can't really crave for the food there since i don't know how they taste like yet.
porridge noodles etc are not like oysters clams etc where you can crave for them even if you've NEVER had them before, and you don't need to care where you're gonna eat them at, since ultimately they'd taste almost the same anyway, although strictly speaking that's not true lah, but well lol.
but that's different for porridges etc so i don't know what to expect for later!
i can't believe i've dedicated so many lines to food. aiya i just wanted to say i'm looking forward to later, which is coming soon!
i had only three hours of sleep can you believe it. because stellie songie and i had another of our lasting-from-midnight-to-morning-long-long-calls.
i think it lasted like almost four hours lah! LOL LOL.
long time since we've had our longlong morning calls! the last time was during those lags between one exam and another i think.
there was a day we chatted till 4am and then i woke up at around 6 for school! gosh and i didn't feel very tired and i think that day wolfie and i were both late and we ended up didn't going to school even though we already were at yck. (since there were not much lessons that day too!)
HAHA. shi te la song u are such a bad influence!!
but i really love you alot alot alot!!!
*thinks about your lesbiany post and GANDONGS~*
HAHAHAHAHAHA. i knew it long ago that you secretly love it when i gan dong. ^^
she was going through her archives and reading them to me. brought back so many feelings i've long forgotten!
we actually talked about sneaking into adps by wearing our psch uniforms. LMAO.
or pretending to be parents of sick children and then saying that our child is called yap kok eng so that the office person will announce ye lao shi's name over the speaker and he'd come down stunned.
how different we were in the past la! maybe that's the price you have to pay for maturity ;) but i'd prefer my life now more of course. :D
shit it's time to get ready ohmytian i'm going to be late!!!!!!
and by the way, LORETTA CHU IS BACK!!!
yay yay :D

i've been going around asking people "how many days are there in christmas arh?" and i finally got my answer yesterday!
i still don't know the lyrics of that "on the first day of christmas my true love gave to me" song! what my true love gave to me on each day of christmas has forever been a mystery to me. hmm.
should i unveal the secrets of that mystery now??
.......
eh the song is too long lah! but finally finally i've seen the true lyrics for itself instead of all those screwed versions where people replace the words to suit their own ocassions. (seriously how do you spell occassions which means jie ri unless someone cant understand my screwed-up spelling. someone enlighten me!)
and i finally know the title of the song. its TWELVE DAYS OF CHRISTMAS. geez. i should've figured that out.
anyway i shall just post the last verse, which just summarises the whole draggly song.
On the twelvth day of Christmas,
My true love gave to me,
Twelve Drummers Drumming,
Eleven Pipers Piping,
Ten Lords-a-Leaping,
Nine Ladies Dancing,
Eight Maids-a-Milking,
Seven Swans-a-Swimming,
Six Geese-a-Laying,
Five Golden Rings,
Four Calling Birds,
Three French Hens,
Two Turtle Doves,
And a Partridge in a Pear Tree.
i must say its a weird lover indeed! and i bet no one knows what is a partridge. and sad to say, i have not a sniff of an idea too. so let me do a good deed and enlighten all of you!
from OXFORD ADVANCED LEARNER'S DICTIONARY (my ever-trusted and wolfie's most hated dictionary),
partridge:
a brown bird with a round body and a short tail, that people hunt for sport or food.
enlightened? :D
hahaha imagine receiving all those things for christmas... from your TRUE LOVE!
this song is cute.
anyway yesterday was a fruitful day! (: looking forward to next saturday already :D
but i still don't know what to do about that thing i asked hu jia jia about. i just can't see myself sacrificing that i think.
well. hope i'll find a way soon! and then i can go forward without as much worries and doubts. hopefully. or maybe i'd change my mind since there're still some ponderings in my mind, but hopefully not (:
jun guan: aye doubleyou doubleyou doubleyou doubleyou doubleyou szszszsz
dot dot dot dot dot.
= awwwwwwwwszszszszsz.....
HAHAHAHA!
so december is going to end soon. coffee bean manager says he'll call me today but till now my phone hasn't rung yet!
please please please call soon don't let my money and holiday job fly away. i don't wanna be a freeloader! i want to make full use of my holidays!
sometimes i think i've met so many good people in my four years here that i've forgotten what it's like to have not-so-nice people in your life.
and with that i think my expectations of people have just gone higher, which is not a very good thing, because you have to accept people for who they are!
something to ponder.
anyway, 3 more days, and it's gonna be THE NEW YEAR! i'll welcome 2009, and i'm really thankful for 2008, because it's been a good year.
really, really hope my strong hope'll be fulfilled. please.
going to do some resolutions pretty soon i hope! and this time round maybe i'll pay more attention to fulfilling them. but i think some of my resolutions for this year have been fulfilled actually. :D
anyway since i've been posting photos on all my recent entries, i shall not make this post an exception!
a way outdated photo!
my first try at wearing a hoodie. of course it belongs to shi te la song pei xuan. she bought one new hoodie so i chen4 ji1 koup the old one to wear :D
comfy comfy! i think this dates back to all the way after er.. prelims2 i think. really outdated, huh? HAHA.
i've grown out of the phase of coveting hoodies! but my eyes are always attracted to normal clothes with hoods. i wonder why.
hey ohmy i just found something about the Twelve Days of Christmas on sally's blog. she blogged about it too. answers all the questions about the weird gifts! go read it's interesting :D
talking to peien on msn now and she's telling me that friday's school reopening. i suddenly envy all the juniors quite alot. although they'll be facing o levels, but they'll be going back to a familiar place in the new year.. while we have to worry about a whole new environment and strangers in the corridors instead of friends you've known for years.
oh well.
p.s. YI ZHI MEI ROCKS!

went there in the late afternoon, and realised they've sealed off part of a road, so instead of the normal cars that we see every day, they replaced them with HUA CHE(s)!
i took some pictures lah, but quite lazy to upload them. anyway i took them in the afternoon so they dun exude that kind of xmasy feel. hahaha..
but of course, they still managed to awe me, which is to say they're much better than the chinese new year ones which i saw this year.
had dinner at a big foodcourt tucked in a i-thought-nobody-could-find-but-many-people-are-there place. we walked so very long all the way from orchard mrt! i think we would have reached dhobby ghaut if we continued the journey.
i finally had watermelon and honeydew sago after days of craving for it! (i crave for food every single day by the way. i wonder how i'd have to suffer the day i get pregnant.)
me: eeeee the sago are BLUE de!
mum: blue jiu blue lah haiyo so da jing xiao guai.
mum: eh dun keep eating those yi li yi li de, eat the fruits!!
hahahaa mummy jiu shi mummy. HAHAHA.
then continued walking along the streets, taking many photos, watching abit of the concert and a carolling group, and of course shopped a little too!
and of course, needless to say, being jostled by the very very big crowd.
HAPPY TIME WITH MY DEAREST MUMMY! i really believe she's one of the greatest mums in the world, sincerely. the fact that she can put up with me already tells alot. really. =P
spent christmas eve with yongmei and clara at northpoint and amk, then met cg because she wanted to pass us our presents.
i felt so guilty because the three of them prepared gifts and i got them nothing! i must quickly earn my money~~ coffeee bean let me hear newwwws soon T.T
anyway i went swimming on tuesday! i think the last time i went was all the way back in january, so it's been almost a year already.
the water felt great!! swam many laps (i'm very slow although i got a gold cert already boohoo), and played in the water!
I LOVE THE SWIMMING POOL! ^^
since we stayed in the pool for more than two hours and was quite tired afterwards, went to the hawker and had a sumptous (most importantly, cheap) meal! duck rice, chicken chop, fried wanton. oh and grass power and ice lemon tea. HAHAHA.
food makes me :D :D :D
and since we didnt really want to move away from that cooling and foody place, we si lai zhe bu zou, and stayed to watch xiao niang re! in that episode the girl was raped :O

let's recall the embarrassing history behind today..
(on the phone one day)
me: mavis! sunday want go ikea together with stella wl??
mavis: ahh another one who doesnt know!
me: ????
mavis: sunday is my birthday!! T.T
me: =O sorry sorry omg i didnt know!
mavis: u know what stella did just now? she called me and asked me whether wanna work on sunday!
HAHAHAHA. i could distinctly hear stella's xu wei de xiao sheng! HURHUR.
so off we went to bugis for the nice nice steamboat there! (its called jin chu aka golden cupboard hahahaha)
stella bought this disgusting hat and wore it the whole day! i like to pull weiling's ears over her head everytime i'm behind her. HAHAHA.
and then the food came, and excitement entered the air!
HAHAHA.
stella bought a hot dog bun and put it on the part of the ear that extends out from the head. (tang whatever) LMAO LAH LOOKS SO DAMN FUNNY LA!
very happy meal!! (: (:
stella loves the song shuo hao de xing fu ne. she loves it so much that she created actions for every single sentence. it was damn funny lah!
and today, went out in the afternoon with joan marilyn guoliang and eugene for a mini gathering before joan escapes to malaysia tomorrow..
hahaha in the end stella the pig overslept and didnt come so marilyn was still the latest. lmao.
and trying on funny things in shops became our favourite past time too.. i especially love this shope. see below:

she let xin ru talk to me on the phone (as in, not EXCHANGE words lah since obviously we cant hold a proper conversation yet, just to let me fa hua chi), and she kept on going,
xiao DU DU!
xiao DU DU!
xiao DOOO DOOO!
(sometimes she'd emphasise on the second DU and that's even cuter omg)
and then she refused to give the phone back to my ah ng!
gosh she's so cute lah omg. i'm SO going to record down her voice the next time i go there. and then i'll drool every my phone every day.
awww...
xiao DU DU!! =DD

its at coffee bean in paragon. although the pay is not very high ( 4 per hour ), but wolfie and me both look forward to it!
it's embarrassing to admit this, but one of the things i'm most looking forward to working there is being able to wear xmas hats on the job.
HAHA!
i've been seeing so many pictures on friendster with people wearing xmas hats to jobs since a good few years back that i've been dreaming about it myself. so now my dream's gonna be fulfilled very soon!
few dreams ever get fulfilled in life, so congrats to me! =D
but of course, the coffee smell and the atmosphere, environment, and seemingly-friendly people there entice me too.
working in a cafe in town really appeals to me alot.
i'm abit scared about the injection! its called thy-something i cant remember it. it'll cost around 20plus but we'll get the money back after we complete our training at intervals during the job.
it's been really really long since i've had my last injection! like 4 years i think :O now i finally find one good thing about my gain of weight T.T
i'll have the ever-annoying fats to protect me! :D
got to get black pants and black shoes, but i can wear my mum's black shoes although they're kinda tight-fitting. YES my feet are bigger than my mum's ok! no wonder when mr tan was teaching toa ka sou last year i was called out as the example by someone. T.T
the asst manager who interviewed us seemed nice. i know first looks deceive but that's the impression he gave me, and then some of the other people there seemed fun too.
there was a guy who needed to wear REINDEER EARS! :O :O i hope i won't have to wear that. traditional homely christmas hats will do :D
anw next time i'll be able to add making coffee to my short list of foods i can prepare. the only item there on the list is cooking maggie mee. HEH.
--------------------
anyway, wolfie and i went to his cousin's GIGANTIC FOUR-storey bungalow after our stupid door-to-door flyer distribution job. i shall not go into that. jl told me it was a scammer job.
the worst thing is we cant get our pay because the min number of days we have to work first is 6, and now that we've got this job there's really not much point in continuing with it.
so we cant get the tendollars that we supposedly earned :(
aiya anyway. it was really very big lah! with a swimming pool, movie room, dance room, rooftop etc etc. and then the chandelier there was like FOUR layered de can!
i was already impressed and awed the first time i stepped into stella's house seven years ago and saw the one-layered chandelier there, so seven years later i was treated to four times the impression and awe.
actually it shouldnt be as much as four times lah, since u really have got to minus away the suagu-ness seven years back :D
[ i just watched a part of jaychou's live concert 2007 and omg i love him even more right now. he can melt my heart when he sings! awwwwwwwwwwww.. ]
OKAY ANYWAY. it was pretty fun there!
ate, ( i downed four cups of guava juice the moment i got there because i was so damned thirsty from the damned job and we had finished all of our water and refuse to buy anymore because ZUAN QIAN XIN KU! hahaha. ), explored his house which never ceased to make me :O no matter where i turned, watched wolfie and some guys there play cards, and then all of us sat down to play bingo which his cousin arranged for us.
i didnt win! =( it's been long since i've gotten lucky at this kind of thing other than the lucky draw during prom night. but that was just a really small prize anyway. BOOHOO.
and his cousin is a hilarious guy hahaha :D and he's got two very cute dogs called strawberry and happy. i like happy!! =D
a good night! (:
------------------
went out for dinner and lots of catching up with cg ym clara on sunday at j8. it's been long since the four of us gathered together the last time!
and so, we had LOTS of catching up to do! spent more than three hours chatting, gossiping, and laughing half the way through. it felt really great!
there were so many ridiculous jokes and things we talked about and we all laughed away together which we havent done for very long.
talked about jc and abit of o levels too, for which both i havent really been thinking about much ever since holidays started, and it felt weird to be reminded of them again.
puts a flutter in my heart. feels like trepidation about next year, of getting results, going to a new school and making new friends.
i thought i would be ok with leaving old friends behind because the friendships wouldnt really change since we're mature enough. (hopefully!)
but it started to dawn on me how it'd feel not to be able to see everyone so frequently anymore, how life would be quite different actually.
i dont want it to :( i think i'll miss the days in phs terribly soon.
oh well. as they say, life's like that. where did i here it from it sounds so familiar seriously i cant recall! LOL!
i might be going back to phs tmr to watch my niece play volleyball there (their school's going to be using our court these few days).
i look forward to going back into the pink school! i think none of my friends share this enthusiasm of mine T.T hahahaa..
and i look forward to seeing my niece! i miss her!
oh and, here are pictures of siting's 1year old birthday party last last saturday (: was a really enjoyable and happy night.
XINRU!! she looks so cute in the dress can :D :D :D she cant pronounce xiao gu gu properly so she always calls me xiao DU DU -.- lol but it sounds damn cute so well. heh.
TADA. this is what me and girlgirl kouped from the cake. we've set our eyes on them the moment we set our eyes on the cake. HEHE.
that's all. (:
------------------
they say school might reopen in january since many people are saying so. omg i was under the impression that it would start in february lah since thats what the gov's newsletter last time said.
CHEAT MY FEELINGS! T.T
which means my holidays are ending soon! in one month? time during the hols seems to fly very very fast. i dont want it to end!!
being so carefree feels so great. hmmph. it gives me the time to relax, think, do what i want, and enjoy life.
next year there would be much lesser time for all these already! *sobs*
LOL. well. again, it's LIFE'S LIKE THAT. hahaha..
will blog again soon! it's a long post this one. tag people! my tagboard's getting silent!
&& xmas is coming in just abit more than one week. santa loves :D :D

we went through the last few days together, and bade farewell as a whole.
made me realise how glad i am to have such strong ties with family and relatives, how lucky i am to have people so close to my heart without even needing to work for it.
kinship can never be expressed fully in words. something so sacred, and something we must treasure alot and alot.
we'll all wish for the best, let go and move on soon.
