25th, Baby brought me to J8'S Thai Xpress for lunch and plans for photography stuff was cancelled cause Aunt called. Called to asked if Sam and me wanted to go bowling at Yio Chu Kang. But in fact, the place was closed down due to my mom's outdated information. Hahah!
So we left and bused down to Kovan. No photos cause my Aunt, Cousins, Baby and my hands were to tired to use the camera. I was dressed super not appropriate for the games. Wore Topshop-kind jersey with my *PRINCESS* skirt,(as quoted by Lim Jian Cheng AKA NIAO.) He said that kind of boho long skirt its the PRINCESS SKIRT! :D Still, i had my bowl strike(s) okay! :)
Left there around 5pm and went to Heartland Mall to eat eat a little, walk walk a little, see see a little. We went off at about 6pm to have dinner with Sam's parents at Thomson Plaza. And Thai style, again, for dinner.
Oh! the thai food i had was from the food court and its really awesome! cant remember the name though cause when i was queueing for order, i was attracted to the colourful big menu on the wall. and you dont have to stand there to wait for your food after you've order. the crew will give you a number and you just wait for around 10 minutes(if the queue is long), and they you serve the food to your table!
After dinner, walked around and Uncle brought sweet potato from one of the snack place called : Taiwan Sweet Potato Village. It reminded me whens the time i last had that, which sent a fishy feeling to me. Lol. Not because it taste fishy! cause when i went Taiwan 2 years back, i last had the sweet potato was at some fishing area, like a port for fishermen. that was a super chilly and raining day, when i first tastes it.
OKAY. Digress a tad too much. SOOOOO, after all that walking after the sweet potato, we went Junction 8 to have the MANGO DESSERT! :D
26th, today! First, went to Baby's place before going to BTC at his church. Thereafter, lunch at Food Junction at Bishan before heading back to Baby's home to slack and watch movies.
Plans for ECP was cancelled cause i wasnt feeling well. Still, around early evening, Uncle, Baby and me went down for table tennis games. For dinner, Baby made Japanese curry and rice for my myself and him!
LOVE YA! :)
P.S: Kathy's turning 19 in 48hours time P.P.S: Hadi just turned 19!

On the bus ride back home just now, i went into a random pondering mode. how things change, people change, every living thing change. in which, how things change when people thought would never.
where is everyone now.

part of NSF.
looking at my dear amanda, cant imagine how fast time flies. 8years of friendship, sisterly love we had, i cant remember when is the last time we quarrelled. miss the times when we had stayovers, when your first year at ngeeann during my o's, went to canteen 1 to have kakifuyong and mugged at np's library. the photos, neoprints and spastic moments all this while. and us, at townsville, sitting at the side of the class and started singing m2m, westlife's songs,which was popular then. and your 2nd sister and her boyfriend would bring the two of us out too. memories! :D
BESTFRIEND. LOVE. DEAREST. SISTER. OTHER HALF. AND MOST IMPORTANLY, THE BEST AND COMFORTABLE BRA THAT SUPPORTS ME. lol. okaay that sounds wrong, but i heard a saying that friends are like bra, others cant see its good or not, only you can feel the support that it gives. aiya. nevermind about the saying. in short, I LOVE YOU WONG PEIXIAN :)
Because she's my sister, and therefore, one half of me.
p.s: the other boleyn girl is one of the moive i felt, not to be missed :) p.s.s: loved the last few seconds of the trailer, espcially when Scarlett Johansson said that sentence.

On 27th Sep, Sam's mom brought us to [Comfort Space] Helio Asia for spa and facial. Located at Paragon's level 5, the comfort space was 17000 sq feet big. The first moment i went in, i was awe with the very comforting and pampering facilities, its a surreal yet confined intimacy place which i cant express through here. For facial, the beauty therapist used Maria Galland products. Imagine this exquisite spa place [comfort zone], which came from Italy; Combined with a pampered facial treatment of Maria Galland beauty products, whch also came from Italy.
Following sunday, 5th Oct, Sam brought me to Suntec for another "pampering". I had my eyebrows thread at browhaus and my hair treatment&trim. Had homecooked dinner at Sam's before we left for prawning!
Mr Boy rent the rods for 3 hours, and after 15minutes, i caught my first king prawn! the 15minutes seems like the longest 15minutes i've ever past. Lol.
Mag and Ken came to look for us after Chomp Chomp.
Bbq-ed few of what we caught.
The rest were brought home and boil cook eat.
11Oct, Went Maxwell Food Center with Sam&family for breakfast! Thereafter, walked to URA Building.
The new stadium dome!
Wooden LEGOs!
ST.REGIS, the place where i wanna have my wedding dinner at. HEH HEH!
Orchard Road after Tanglin. With Hilton, Far East, Wheelock Place, ion orchard, wisma and takashimaya, on the right.
Model of how Singapore will look like in the near future! p.s: orange lines are the F1 tracks.

Dearest Baby, i thank yous for the things you did for me, you changed for me, you sacrificed for me. and most importantly, love me for me. :) this seven months had not come by easy for us even though it seems neither a long nor short time. my school malaysia trip for 4 days and npssc's GL camp for another 3days within the first month we got together. np sports camp, when you were running a high fever the day before camp and insisted to go to the camp, for me. then you fell sick for a month, all i did was buy you losta apples and accompany you to the doctor's after pastamania, you, working a 9-5 photographer job at pictureworks, which is fucked up. but you continued cause you wanna give me a good life with the moolahs you single-handly earned.
after the sucky job which deprived me of you, you chose to work at ambush cause its at takashimaya b2, where i work at brownie factory, the other job of mine:)
although many times i was feeling jealous cause of some issues, but you never failed, and was never tired(maybe a little) to reassure me. during the period before working at ambush, you always fetch me from school and have nice meals. never let me go hungry cause you knew the habit of mine, skipping meals. and sent me to dancing classes, waited for me.
though im not good at planning birthday celebration, i still try to plan yours together with Geraldina and Felicia's. after 5months, i think its too late to say it, but again, that hope you love it! :) your church camp during june for a week, which was a killer.
you quit ambush after a month and half, cause of early enlistment. you had around 3 weeks of time before that dreaded 25th of july. your 7 weeks of bmtc at tekong. the first 2 weeks of you "grounded".
subsequently, weekly departure. with unwilling bidding of goodbyes on sunday's evening and smiling sweetly either on friday's evening or saturday morning. with me, counting down. weekly of MONDAY TUESDAY WEDNESDAY THURSDAY FRIDAY! before i see you again, into loving smile. cause still in number4 uniform, with too many rules and restrictions made the lover girlfriend feel very unloved. haha
and sunday, accompanying you to pasir ris. waiting for the tekong buses to come, you and your bunk mates, platoon mates talking. and sometimes, getting surrounded with botak men dressed in green having 10over people talking was weird for me.
everyday of loving messages exchanged.
you, afraid that i'll run far away while you in tekong which i did not.
the field camp, and not able to message and call during the days.
POP on 9Sep for you had made it through:)
Holidays in Bintan and days of slacking, teeveeing, makaning, cooking, baking at your crib, were days so missable. shopping, singing, grocerying was the other great affair with you around.
Posted to OETI at Ayer Rajah; Automation for Vehicle B. Doing the 8-5.30 job and everyday,i'll get to see you. see much more you, of you. as long as youre doing best and good in it, i'll be with you.
lastly, iloveyou samuel leong. you for loving me even though i'm not, and will never be, the prettiest, hottest, sweetest, whatsoever, whathaveyou, girl in the world.
You dont love someone for their looks, or their clothes, or for their fancy car, but because they sing a song only you can hear.

Over the F1 week on 23-29 Sep, town was super packed. During the weekdays, i worked for 5days straight and i took 30 minutes more to get to kallang leisure park from dhoby gahut. The weekends, I went over to Baby's place and watched both qualifying rounds and the F1 Race itself. Baby said watching this F1 cars racing its not all about the drivers themselves, but the beauty of the F1 cars was engineered in such a amazing piece of thing, the enginneers behind this automation.
29th was our 7th month:) the NSF boy got posted to ayer rajah camp, doing some automation for vehicle B, got to end work early. And i only need to work till 3pm:) plans for DHL Balloon was cancelled due to the rain!! traffic jams at suntec area and i took almost an hour to get to dhoby gahut from kallang. compared to the usual 20miuntes bus trip. road closure for F1 jammed the area was bad enough, still, the rain worsened the traffic situation. took forever to reach plaza singapura, and took another forever to get tiramisu ingredients at carrefour to bake for hweehoon's birthday celebration later in the evening. imagine i end work at 3pm and reached baby's place at around 645pm. RAHR. started baking tiramisu cause need to rush to sean's place for celebration. and also, tiramisu need around 2hours for setting. but i cut short the time and left baby's place at 830pm. so being the very lazy me to take the bus, i called hua to see can long bang us on the way. ended up baby and me waited 20minutes for him. cause he was on the way coming down from yishun, fetching wendy and c.k. in the end, we reached sean's place at 910pm. first thing was to wish giraffe hweehoon happy birthday, then, put the tiramisu in the fridge. Was really great to see like more than a quarter of 5one2006 there:)
Baby and Shaun Ng were playing the soccer playstaion game. hilarious! i joined baby at the later match too. he choose a damn lousy team for me and he choose man-u for his team. of course i didnt score any goals cause i seriously have no idea how to use the controller. but i saved like at least 4 balls from scoring okay! results was 5:0. lol! very obvious which score is mine.
didnt stay till 12midnight for hweehoon's birthday cause i have to work the next day. and baby need to report 7am at ayer rajah camp. so, i took out the tiramisu for them before leaving! hweeyee was doubting whether the tiramisu is edible anot. haha!
this is the 2nd time that baby and me have done tiramisu leh. at least have one time experience tiramisu making okay! :D
HUA and SEAN KUA was damn ons to be the guinea pigs(sean said it!) anyway, i was the first to taste this 2nd home made tiramisu. not bad as i thought cause we added rum this time. the tiramisu we did the first time didnt have rum cause we couldnt find at carrefour. we got the rum from paragon market place. but i think this time round, not as nice as the first cause the tiramisu melted, and the Savoiardi biscuits was too soft. we should have let the tiramisu to set for at least two hours. and the temperature of the fridge plays an important role too. due to not-conditioned enviroment for 30minutes, and i should have put it in the freezer for at least 7minutes when at sean place instead of normal fridge compartment.
nevermind! next time better! :) and that sums up our 7th month. Haha!
Bintan Getaway
It was an hour ferry ride to Bintan from Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal. which seems like forever due to the sea sickness. I felt uncomfortable during the ferry ride so i slept through half of the ride. Chillax, carefree days in Bintan was great. Thank youss very much Baby! Next trip, Hongkong! :D
