The Model... NOT

Finally... my much awaited pics are ready. n i look CORNY!! urm... what to expect? i'm not a knock-out beauty in the 1st place. a knock-out scary freak show yeah... but definately not a blown-away goregous babe.

Managed with great difficulty to lug the pics home wif ah pui. To celebrate the use of my muscles, had a great meal at Cafe Eden or Eden Cafe?? Ah.. watever.. the plc has a cafe & eden in its name. @ Club St.

Haf always wanted to makan flowers. Yup... im crazy enuf to want to munch on flowers. & munch sure i did. managed to savour wat i've wanted to all this while. saffron, osmanthus & roses...

cldnt really figure out watz the deal wif saffron, but it taste great wif the salmon & cream. ah pui was salivating at it. his dish seems so bleah as compared to mine. honey mustard chicken... duh... gimme saffron n salmon anytime baby. :D

osmanthus tea taste good~ hk period dramas always haf osmanthus cakes... now im juz waiting for a chance to sink my teeth into it.

rose petals.. well.. it taste like.. urm... flowers. bwahhaha.. go figure how it taste urself. :)

Play!

Surprise... surprise~ ah pui actually is interested in an arts fest event. went to watch Play! A Video Game Symph0ny on Sat. @ the esplanade concert hall. expectedly, the place was swarmed with teenagers, looking funny when they are trying painfully hard to look formal.

somebody oughtta give the kids a concert etiquette 101 before they attend anything close to anything arty. there's a overly excited kid who tried to clap before the beginning of his favourite game. thankfully he's sitting far from me.

hmm.. prob coz im a gaming idiot. most of the pieces din really reasonate wif mi 'cept for super mario bros. yesh.. im dat ancient. things soon start to sound boring when most of the pieces sound pretty much the same, wif the same zen beginning, majestic music. the dash of oboe n clarinet solos were good tho. :)

a good starting ground for teenagers to cultivate an interest in music. h/ever for serious aficiandos, just go for the fun of it.

Fly away...

The travel bug has bitten. I'm dying for a short getaway... have been bugging ah pui to make travel arrangements & he's still procrastinating. Hate dat.

The thought of travel is always rejuvenating. Arriving at the airport is already a throw-all-rubbishy-troubles-outta-window moment. Stepping onto foreign soil is the start of mindless wandering & carefree exploration.

I want to get away... I want to fly away..... yeah yeah yeah....

MessEd uP

Preparing for the new chapter is really mESsY! room is in a mess & dozens of stuff are left undone. Need chicken essence to get through the month... 8S

Bought the materials to beautify the Ang Pao box. Friend commented that i'm being too extravagant, since nobody is gonna notice it anyway. What the heck! I need the retail therapy. Kinda sad, my retail therapy is conducted in Spotlight. Duh....

Picnic by the Park

Thank goodness it was only a shortlived downpour on Saturday. Weather was cool, and the crowd was great. & i did the un-me thing to have a picnic. Friends were laughing their heads off when i told them about my plan. Hey, it's not everyday that we get to watch Shakespeare & to enjoy a picnic at the same time. So what the heck........ laugh your buttcheeks off... i'm having the picnic!!! :)

Yup, i brought along a checkered mat. I'm just lacking the straw basket & a sunhat. Reckoned that i would look like a nutcase wearing the hat at night. Jap bento yummies provided the hassle free dinner & considering the humid weather... the all important ice cold beer!! Yes, yes... no picnic is complete without the vegetarian beverage. Just a bummer that I don't have an ice-box... if not can ask ah pui to pack in wine & champagne. WHA!!!! if only....

Shakespeare is always good. Midsummer nite's dream is apt for Fort Canning. Kudos to SRT for the good use of space. The stage setting is good. But costumes.. er.... let's just say some of the clothes make me raise my eyebrows abit & some of the scence were rather cliche.



But who cares! Overall, it's fun, cool (thankfully for the rain) & refreshingly different. Love it!

Lousy Morning

Talk about being woken up by the alarm clock yesterday morning. Was woken up from my deep slumber by a car alarm pre-dawn this morning. The car was wailing 5 minutes non-stop. Good grief... the zzz monster was long gone when the owner finally came to shut the damn car up. Took me quite some time before i courted back the zzz monster. Expected, woke up late for work. To top it off, waited for 15 minutes for the bus, & i can't even see its headlights. Took a cab instead. Wasted 15 minutes of my life.... should have took a cab immediately.

I'm not a morning person. In fact, don't even think of dragging me outta bed before 12 noon during weekends. It's a love-hate relationship for me to hear the birds chirping in the morning.

I'm thankful for a new day. Not everyone can have the luxury to hear birds singing. But it would also mean that i've woken up too early in the morning. The birds should be hiding from the blazing sun when i wake up.

Cynical Bitch

Was rudely awakened by the alarm clock this morning. Think i was happily dreaming when the alarm clock sang its annoying tune. Damn... what a way to start the week. >~<>

A friend just told me about another friend's blog. Caught a sneek peek at it. Urm.. let's just say it's enough to leave my hair standing for a week. It's just soooooooooooooooooooooooo mushy. Love, love, looooove & more LOOOOOOOOOOOOVE.

I admit. I'm not the typical girl next door who gushes non-stop at how awfully cute the cupcake is, how adorable the little baby looks like, or how sweet the flowers smell. More likely I'll be whining on how awfully sweet the cupcake tastes, how noisy the baby is crying, and how badly it would stink if the flowers wither. Yes, I'm cynical & bitchy as well.

I dun view life as a journey on the rainbow with a pot of gold at the end. Rather, it's a journey on a bed of nails with a pot of dung at the end. I dun see things as rosy n cheery. Rather, it's bleak n urm.. bleah. Every minute of life isn't living, every minute of life is dying. 'Nuf said.

Sad to say, i'm managing my life with quite a pathetic combi. Hit by frequent bouts of stupidity, this makes me a stupid, cynical bitch. Great. Pop the champagne, and I'll mostly likely to hit myself with the champagne cork. Don't believe it? Try falling off the bus. It takes tremendous stupidity to do it. & I'm still nursing my sore foot after all these months. #&(@&#((#@....
