Steamboat Feast

Got invited to Marilyn's house for a steamboat session! Gillian Goh Pei Zhu was like an hour late. Gahhhh. Its has always been the case and im kinda use to it. Thankfully, i had my materials to keep myself occupied.

Saw familar faces whom i havent seen in awhile. such as godwin, kenneth and sikai. The rest of the people was relatively unknown to me. Soon came Samantha and her bf. Not long after came dr loke. Dr Loke is a faci in RP as well as a member in the ig strings. hah.

The early birds left soon after they had their fill. Leaving gillian, myself, dr loke, samantha and bf to all the food. We were busy munching and there's dr loke got distracted by the tv. The tv was broadcasting some magic performance and duh, dr loke is the advisor for Magic IG. Thats why he got his eyes fixed on the tv. Gone samatha and her bf. Thats leaving gillian, loke and myself with all the foody!! We have a huge appetite huh! And all this while, gillian has been peeling prawns for me!! <3

We finally stopped eating at 11pm. Hella scary, we ate for 3hours! And proofff, by then the house is left with just the few of us. Gathered at the living and chatted through the night. Left the house only at 1230am. Gillian took a cab back home on her own. The rest of us got a lift from dr loke! Samantha and bf got off first at sengkang. Coincidentally, dr loke also stays at woodlands! the only condo at woodlands. cool. The digits on the cab's meter is cool too!

*sorry pictureless. no cam and my phone's cam sucks big time

Hai to Meetings

Bernie Nicholsen! i'm really sorry about the plan that we'd agreed on back before the holidays was busted. I did not went MIA as what you've said to be. My phone had been messed up for a few days and apparently, the phone im using now is the LKK Nokia model! I swear that it is way lousier that lousy. And you must be wondering where's my Samsung phone? It has already been long buried.

I presume during the days that i went 'MIA', the in-charge has called. But my phone is not through. I think they had got me off the list. On the contrary, i couldnt commit to that work too. I hope you understand.

IG meeting in the afternoon. Seriously, i cant withstand meetings, its pain in the neck. Often, i would lost my concentration in no time.

After the meeting, cabbed down to Novena with Gillian, Sri and Shihua. Gillian has piano classes at there hence, we waited for her for an hour. After which, went Plaza Sing to watch Bride Wars.

The movie seriously bore me out. Nearly slept throughout. But the thought of me paying $7 for the ticket kept me awake.

Rest in Peace

A thousand thoughts are swirling around my mind and im trying hard to form something coherent out of them.

Seriously diona, you have freaking got me into this agony. I came about knowing this guy, Ian Vuitton through Diona. Unfortunately, he had gone from this world at the age of 19. Yes, he's dead.

I'm totally disgust 'bout the fact that, anyone living in the states have easy access to drugs and whats more consuming them like as though its part of their daily meals. Though i could hardly know him, but he's definitely a fun guy to be with. It's a blessing that somehow he'd got himself famous on the net probably with his good looks and his buoyant character.

Totally submit to his net friends. I cant describe it with words. you have to see it yourself. Its truly madly deeply touching.
Beyond words.

Thanks diona, you made me realise we can have true friends through the net too.

Rest in Peace
Ian

2009 Chinese New Year

Every year without fail, on chinese new year eve we would head down to Chinatown to sweep out those cheap goodies. Actually not really, we just wanted to have the feel of Chinese New Year that kind of thingy.

Not leaving out this year, we went too. However, only when we stepped out of the building we realised that it was drizzling. Not to be dishearted, we hold the thought that maybe its not raining there. But to our dismay, it is. And there's no point holding a brolly and squeezeeeee right. So we went back home. Somehow its a pity, but on the other hand i was completely drain-out so going home was not a bad idea afterall.

2 days of house visiting has got me all hype up. Don't ask me why, coz i have no idea too. Have been stuffing myself with all the chinese new year goodies. (read sidenote)

Sidenote: Diona must be swearing "sinful sinful sinful"

But personally i dont think eating is sinful and instead its a blessing. But still, it depends on individual. Chill diona :D

On Sunday, the entire lot of my relatives came to my house for dinner as well as "Lao yu sheng". I'm glad that they are very satisfied with our new home. Its always heartwarming to see all my relatives gathering together. And the best thing about tonight, my grandma is happy. She has been smiling and lauging all the while. Its been awhile seeing her so happy.

I enjoyed my new year. do you?

School. Afterwhich, headed over to aljunied together with xvan. Throughout the journey there, i was doing all the talking. As he was feeling rather low with his 'lack of fringe'. Hence, we trained down to far east to have his hair extensions done. Immediately, there's an evident 360 degrees change in his mood. And he became very chatty after that.

Late in the evening, met up with gillian and sister at Raffles City shopping mall. We brisked walk over to Raffles Hotel. We thought we were late for the full dress reheasal. Eventually, when we reach there the piano ensemble was still rehearsing. And guess what? Our turn for rehersing was only at 10pm!!
