nana i think ur boy is so cuuuute :) btw speaking of boys or rather kids.. i mentioned about my RA job? it went okay.. and the kids were SUPER cute.. my fav.. Kenneth Ong:

okay this picture really doesnt do him justice.. he looks like one million times cuter than this.. and his voice is like so sexy.. and the way he looks at you with his specs falling.. wah lao.. urber charming can... okay. i realise this sounds weird when u know im describing about a 6 year old but SERIOUSLY - i wanna take him home.. or maybe.. i hope my kid looks like that! i love him man.. like with lots of love that kinda love.. :) and he went like "what you doing" (with a super sexy voice) after i sneak my camera on him because i totally forgot to off the sound and my camera went like "chi-ki" super loud and i think he knows im in love with him now.. muahah.. and LOOK WHAT I FOUND IN THE KINDY!!!! NODDDDYYYYYYYYYYYYY... i loved noddy when i was young. and that was a loooong time ago..:(

so this week hasnt been well, lots of personal deadlines were not met. caught up with i dunno what everyday every minute.. so busy that i miss a lot of things that i have to do.. BUT despite that.. i went to the salon yesterday with my sister.. determined to get the stress cut off.. and so i did. i chop off my hair.. like chop off.. really chop off.. even worse than the time i chop it off during JC times.. its sort of like a pixie crop now.. and even better is, the stylist dyed my fringe blue.. yes.. its blue.. sort of like electric blue with a tinge of purple in it and its super obvious.. getting a lot of weird stares and comments-kept-in-the-heart by many ppl.. nevertheless. im enjoying this attention.. you know being weird and out of the kind is really interesting. its like u're testing the limits and patience of the common people - by that i mean ppl who are shallow and dont use their brains to think... and so.. i dont care if the common people like it.. point is.. i did it and i think i made my statement loud and clear so shut up and drive, drive, drive.. muahaha.. isnt that FUNNY? okay maybe not.

so i got my new job confirmed today, which is to be a Research Assistant, and administering some language tests on some kindergarten kids nearby, thing is.. im quite apprehensive about it.. i dunno cause you see, im gonna be ponning my cosmetics and perfumes lectures COMPLETEly if im doing this job thingy since the only slots i can afford is b4 those lectures and it ends as late as early the lecture would start.. so im pretty worried about not attending lectures.. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, im so scared i cant handle the kindergarten teachers.. the kids.. and the tests, oh gosh, they are super urber confusing.. i mean seriously confusing.. and im going in alone tml, which is EVEN MORE SCARY.. mans.. courage courage. courage.. i need it. like right now :( and i really miss everybody, i haven seen many ppl for quite a while.. i so hate this semester.
i feel really low now, as in depression kinda low.. the struggling is making me feel so hateful of everything.. and i dont wanna cry, since it doesnt make anything better.. but i feel so i dunno sad maybe..and i need to talk to somebody before i you know go into coma.. and see i cant even put my thoughts out straight in words.. im so distraught i guess. i hate being alive now.

yayness, my secret plan was actually to plan a birthday tour for leemeowmeow on saturday.. did some googling on interesting places we can visit before coming up with the poems and puzzles and printing the clues as well as the card until 3 plus am (!) on friday night..so she thought we were going shopping. haha!

my masterpieces
Ok so basically, my plan was to visit 4 places, such that each place would mark a point or period of age that she've gone through, sort of like a journey through the first 20 years, and like "packing" up all these memories so that she can march towards the next 20 or so.. i dont know, i sort of think that being 21 is like a turning point where you end one part and start another part of your life.. BUT either i didnt presented it well or what, she didnt get it..haha!
okay so like my plan, we alighted at Raffles Hotel with her thinking we were going shopping at Raffles City until i release the news to her.. so exciting.. than i gave her the first envelope which contain the poem hinting our first destination for lunch..
1st stop: The Ms Clarity Cafe
(that marks the early teenage years)
*** Follow your guide for the day
To begin your journey from Child till Today
First we go for a simpler fare
At a place that reminds you of the
Girlish Days

I found this really cute girlish cafe online and decided it as my first stop after reading all the reviews for it, i chose it especially for its nostalgic feel, fits the day's theme..

The menu

Look at her retarded face while waiting for food

Some potato skin thingy stuffed with bacon and cheeseeee we had as the side dish (I was really shocked at the portion, this is only for $7! I thought it was like one potato only..)

What I had (Chicken Cordon Bleu - $8.80), which is actually chicken breast meat stiffed with ham and cheeseee, i just love cheese too much.. yay, and mz had some mushroom baked chicken thingy i cant remember.
They were really nice food and nicely presented and whats more worthwhile is the price, both of us only ate like $26.10 which i think its really cheap for its quality and ambience, and the price you see on the menu is what you pay exactly, no extra GST and service charges (kudos!)
And so that morning, Matin decided to join us so we waited for him outside the cafe, cause i think we had some miscommunication and he hadn't found us even after we finish.. haha!

While waiting for Matin outside cafe, and you can so see my VISIBLE eye bags.eeekks.

Finally he found us, okay more like we found him, and he gave mz a puzzle to solve too.ha!

Mz solving the puzzle, and she took like soo much time.. such a birdbrain, and so matin presented mz with a B & J's voucher!

Then she solve the 2nd clue i have which would lead her to the
2nd Stop: MINT Toy Museum
(Which of course, marks the childhood period)
*** This is the part we pretend we're 3
When all that matters were our Toys
Let's go a few years back in time
and Embrace the little child inside
Followed by a Fill-in-the-Blanks puzzle that shows the street name, and then mz would have to locate this interesting sign before we find our 2nd stop..
Looking and looking..

And HERE's the sign! Batman and Robin. Here we Gooooo..

Their cafe downstairs which i planned to eat at initially..

Some quite cool posters
Then, we purchase the tickets for entry and had some discount for being students.. haha.. up we go to the 5th floor and start our explore down down down...

Some cool hopscotch mat on whichever floor i forgot haha..

My favourite - MICKEY! and there i thought mickeys who looked like these were FAKOS.. but they are like genuine lah.. all the way from last time..

Toys were all displayed nicely in cabinets and there were really A LOT. Pretty interesting trip though i didnt expected it to be good.. we were quite surprised and awed by some.. laughed at some too.. im surprised we can have conversations about such old toys we never got to play.. anyway we weren't supposed to take flash photos too in case the metal toys wear off.. but as usual, we didnt really listen and took some.. i didnt upload photos of the toys as you can easily find them online.. so do check them out..! Though the musuem is really small, i would still recommend you guys to take a look at it for its design, its ambience, its nostalgic feel. I especially liked their ancient posters and ancient packaging for toys, really quite interesting to learn a bit about the history and the evolution of toys till today..
We spent almost 2 hours there talking and looking and talking and looking before its time to present our next clue.
3rd Stop: Movie at Cineleisure (P.S I love You)
(This marks the late teens to young adult period where we people start to get a sense of what is love.. haha.. this movie fits the bill so I added it into the itinery)
***Now we keep ourselves young at heart
In search of the one we'll never part
The greatest love story will soon unfold
In the place that we always go
So I presented her with a french puzzle that i learned in my french class where she had to guess that we were watching a movie.. and as usual, birdbrain took some time..

I booked the tickets one day before already so we had quite good seats for P.S I love you.. though Matin had to sit alone cause of last minute plans.. but the movie was super good, and i cry like mad lah... the script was so good.. the money was super worth it..
So after the movie, I took out the last clue.
Last Stop: PS Cafe
(Here's where we'll celebrate the goodbye of young adulthood and the beginning of adulthood)
*** Finally we return to our Newfound age
With extravaganza food to Celebrate
Relieve the Joy and Love we had
but Pray that we'll not get fat

This one was really easy.. from the title of the movie, she has to locate the restaurant from the map i printed out..which was so easyyy actually.. but birdbrain.. ah you know..

I knew leemeowmeow never ate at Dempsey before so i chose this place, partly also because i wanted to eat their gigantic cakes. BUT we ended up not eating it cause we were SO FULL with our food. and I didnt plan Halal restaurants cause i didnt know Matin was going to join us, but lucky, he ate the Fish and Chips too! yayness..

So I gave her my card for her effort in completing the tour.

I though it was quite fun lah, moving around here and there, though time constraints couldn't let me find better places and plan it better but Im glad I had this plan.. or I think I'll regret it forever..aha!

Im really GLAD matin came too, added more colours to the outing.. and especially since I feel so lonely doing this alone for mz..and because SAM is so far away..Quite fun lah to meet up and talk.. I actually had plans to ask the whole kampong down but ILYAS DIN reply ME so. yah you know..dont even bother asking the rest al

all in all, I think its a success, thanks to her birdbrain actually, it wouldn't had been fun if she was so clever.. so..
HAPPY 21ST BIRDBRAIN!
and yarh, I think I've said whatever I wanted to say in my lovely card, so.. yar.. u know it :)

this other day, at the same long road i wait for my SUPERR crowded 151 to head for french class, there was no bus. so i cabbed. BUT, i had company:) y0ou know i know this guy, mat, however its spelled.. he is like a total HYBRID of ilyas + matin. his diva-ish, his tone, his actions, his zest, his everything is like ilyas plus matin.. PERFECT. except - he's a total full gear BACKPACKER! he goes backpacking like every semester! like omg lah... i didnt realise i noe such ppl.. im like SUPPEEERRR envious.. he went like borneo, laos, myanmar, indo etc. and the last he went china and vietnam for 1 month for a freaking $1.1 K only lah! hes the MAN man.. im like so inspired by him and I ALSO WANT TO GO BACKPACKING! hes going india and philippines next, its so ohmygod. ANYONE? LETS GO BACKPACKING! so i suggested to him to set up his own backpackers club in NUS so i can proudly be a member muahaha.. great time talking to him lah. and hence, i miss my dunearn people (sobssobs) we haven been talking for aeons, so im having this secret idea of pulling this dunearn outing these days..muahaha.
anyways..i think im losing it..you see, theres something about this sadness thingy that really attracts me, so when my social life is like low on the grounds.. i slowly get sucked into this sadness space and completely zone out for days or weeks.and without my friends, lovely weird but funny cute friends from everywhere (regardless of your importance), i will eventually dwell in this space and go missing.. i haven seen ALL my uni friends for a LONG time.. okay 2 weeks, because i dont know since when. i started learning to pon lectures without feeling guilty.. plus lonely thursday till 8pm.. i can not talk for 6 hours straight and not feel weird anymore.. and probably the only friend im supposedly exposed to is urber idiotic atikk during french.. but shes been ponning like madness also.. SO, basically, im socially deprived, i dunno who to talk to, i dunno who to eat with, i stay at home to sleep, i act silly with myself, i laugh at myself, i eat bread and read notes by myself, i take bus by myself, i do everything BY MYSELF.. OPRAAAAHHHHHH, savvveeee meeeee!
SO i decided to hype up my social life, stop ponning lectures, start meeting decent people to talk to, stop listening to the depression shit during clinical psych lectures.. and be a socially better person, i also swear that i will not complain of insufficient time alone ANYMORE.
EVERYBODY --- Happy
V Day!
anyways i have a secret plan (and i'm not telling you!)

Haha! Chinese NewYear is O-V-E-R, not officially but basically lah!
yayness.. except for the joy of meeting up with relatives and for the hongbao money.. i dont really see the point of CNY, think ppl just blindly follow the traditions without considering its true meaning.. owells
didnt stock up for CNY this yr except maybe theres tons of food at my house.. mums been pretty busy with work so we rarely get to go out and buy CNY stuffs like last time. sigh!.I didnt really felt the CNY ambience anyway.i remember we used to like gather at my grandma's house every year (quite a big thing) but now that grandmas not around anymore.. CNY is like weird and non-significant anymore. i remembered looking forward to her $21 hongbao money (she always gives this amt with a $1 coin-haha).
anyways we went for this laksa steamboat at Tanjong Pagar for the Reunion (only our family though), wanted to get the revolving restaurant at Primas but we were too slow in our bookings.! i'll go there someday, my parents said its super nice. lols.. and then..of course, like most of the years, we foolishly went to squeeze with other ppl at Chinatown, sweaty molested fun lah..

Excited for food lah

The Laksa Steamboat
with the superrr nice pork . and damn thin!

the chicken there is DAMN nice.. but i didnt have time to take it cause everyone is like snatching it.. gotta get my share before its TOO late!

At Chinatown

The Usual Groceries. i was trying to a capture the hustle and bustle but looks like it failed terribly.. hurhur
NewYear's First Day: we went to my dad's parents' place, and my granny and grandda are like superrr funny.. like the old people kind of funny. granddad was like laughing cheekily to himself when he receives oranges and hongbaos from his kids.. superrr funny.. oh and their dog is damn cheekopek keep smeelling ours' butt. too bad, he got his ass kicked like shit! pheephee is superr fierce..! :)

Their dog, "baby" who got his ass kicked!

she keeps kicking others' dogs asses, even at this distant relative house :)
rock on babe
After dad's parents place, the mum's side gathered at my 2nd Aunt place, i dont remember much of it except there was some gambling and i slept through the whole thing in the son's room, dead beat. THEN, can u believe it, we HAD dinner at the Laksa Steamboat place AGAIN! speaking of which, THE MARINA SOUTH STEAMBOATS are GONE lah! AS IN that place is like totally demolished and god knows what they'll do with it.. there goes the sec school days memories man, and the cheapo steamboat, now we gottaaa like PAY... :(
Chinese NewYear 2nd day: most of the mum's side gathered at my Godma's place (the eldest sibing of the family) and we just slogged away the day before heading to some distant relative place WHICH WE DIDNT GET HONGBAO and then a sumptuous dinner at some idunnowhere place haha.
Basically, its quite boring although the meet-ups were interesting, some gossips among the cousins, some updates of whos attached and whos not.. whos ugly and whos not, whos fatter and whos not, thats the fun-est part i guess.. and lookin for place to dine was superr tough since everywhere is like CLOSED. but thats new year i guess.. see? another CNY passed, and we're ALL turning 21 (likeomg)
I feel terribly helpless cause i didnt celebrate MZ's 21st with her! we spent each others' birthdays EVERY year for the past 8 YEAAARS! i cant remember the 1st present i bought for her, but i do remember the panda night lamp they bought for me (haha). supperrr long ago. and it looks like the 3 ladies wont get to celebrate each other's 21st this year in the end, cause sams away, then i'll be away too.. WHAT A concidence it is the 21st year we all miss! sigh! But, im thinking like getting a memorable thingy for each of us like an identical LV wallet! OMG! im so rich huh..NOW IM BECOMING A LOUSY FRIEND then again, ive never really been a good friend especially in thiskinda stuffs. BUT I WAS never LOUSY okay! :( anyway, still wanted to wish her superrr great 21st year, and i hereby bestow upon YOU MZ that all your wishes shall come true, except those that u cursed me.. ahah! dont bedek, i know u secretly curse me.. hurhur! i promise you a super big present kays FROM STATES!
So I spent MZ's birthday day rushing my biopsych essay and i thought the end product SUCKED. sigh, my bad. schools moving wayyyy too fast :)
I wonder whether SAMHO has received our newyear card YET, been quite a while kay, i just dont have the luck with hotmail as well as postmans!
