It's 1 year late but i have moved to http://sereneteng.blogspot.com/. =)

2007-11-18T19:50:00.000+08:00

Time never seems enough when you are working. The weekends are soon over and the nights could very well be seconds. =( The only kick i get when weekends come around is the mahjong sessions. Thank god for that man. Lol. I know i'm terrible but i can't help it. I must have gotten the gambling virus from our dear mr teo! =D

2007-09-03T15:11:00.000+08:00

Gosh. I think i might be going insane. Coz 'm thinking of picking up golf. -_-

2007-08-23T21:45:00.000+08:00

Isn't this interesting? I almost laughed my socks off. =p

Maybe i should print out a few copies for future use...Watch out, mr teo! Hiak hiak hiak!

2007-08-21T16:48:00.000+08:00

Sigh. Mr teo has been exceptionally nice to me this few days. Staying up late with me coz i couldn't sleep and surprising me with my favourite yami yoghurt just because i made a passing remark.

We never have the habit of giving each other gifts/surprises except maybe on anniversaries and special occasions. Probably because i 've given up on convincing mr teo that girls sometimes need surprises. After all, it IS pretty hard to explain to a blockhead, albeit a cute and silly one, the inner workings of a erratic female mind. Ha. =p

So as a result, even i, the self-proclaimed romantic, stopped surprising him with little gifts coz the toot simply don't appreciate.

Oops, i'm veering off course again. Anyway, i just wanted to say thank you, dear mr teo!

2007-08-20T15:52:00.000+08:00

I counted the number of clothings that i have bought this year and have not gotten to wearing them out yet. I'm horrible. I have seventeen more to go. And i wore two out yesterday. Darling laughed incorrigibly at me yesterday when i realize i had to add more clothings to my list coz i just keep forgetting some of the items i have bought. =(

On the another note, isn't this miu miu bag gorgeous? I'm so lemming for it!

And the prada doctor handbag in beige brown..*Swoon*

2007-08-19T22:35:00.000+08:00

Ah ma called in the afternoon today. =) First time she called me instead of mr teo. Initially he thought ah ma called him but didn't get him or something. Turns out she just called me. It was funny what he was thinking. Jealous ah, teoteo? Mwhaa.

So in the end, we head down to tampines for a visit. Another surprise again. Ah ma already round up mahjong kakis. Lol.

We lost again. No surprise there though. =p

But ah ma cooked my favorite fish for dinner can! Shiok, i almost finish the whole fish by myself! Ha.

2007-08-17T23:46:00.000+08:00

My teeth hurts. My tongue hurts. Eating hurts too. Arghhh. I almost want to remove the ceramics from my teeth right away! Almost, but not quite. Haiz.

Now i really know beauty equals pain. =(

2007-08-14T19:00:00.000+08:00

I never thought i'll say this but subway rocks! For a while now, i've been eating subway and i haven't gotten sick of it. So yup i'm offically a fan of subway! That is why, when in doubt, eat subway! Mwhaha!

2007-08-14T16:13:00.000+08:00

I must have bought like 10 books in the last three weeks. Nah, probably 6 or 7 but it sure feels like 10. =)

Even when i was young, i love reading. I used to read my books secretly during classes . The key word here is secretly. As in covet, clandestine. But i guess i must have been hopelessly absorbed in my reading, either that or i was being really obvious coz my teachers always caught me reading. I reckon they must have gotten super exasperated coz i didn't always heed their warnings.

That was me then, having a constant need to read. But over the years, my need to read faded to a blur. I don't remember reading as much as i used to.

Honestly, nothing beats sitting down in your favourite couch on a rainy day with a mug of hot chocolate and a interesting read in your hands. =)

2007-08-13T16:03:00.000+08:00

Turns out that we bummed at home yesterday. But it was a nice kind of bumming. =) Played this msn game called mystery PI for 5 hours straight. Yeah i refused to quit until i completed the game. And we did! Mwhaha. But it was really tiring gluing our eyes to the computer screen for so many hours. I can't wait to complete other versions of the game!

2007-08-12T12:20:00.000+08:00

Have i mentioned that we both lost at mj yesterday? Yup $58 to be exact. Total sadness. =( Today is one of those days where you are just too lazy to go out but you don't want to waste your weekend away at home. And to be honest, we are really quite broke. -_-

Hurry up and come back, dear mr teo!

2007-08-11T22:47:00.000+08:00

Notice anything different about me? Yesh the braces are off! =) Please say i'm pretty the next time you see me. Mwhaha. =p

My silly silly boy. Bought me a book so that i'll have something to do while waiting for his return. You just make me melt sometimes, love. Hugs.

2007-08-11T11:12:00.000+08:00

Dresses. I'm just so into dresses lately. I have like five in my closet already. They just make you feel oh-so-girly, don't you think? =p

And by the way, hostel 2's really not all that horrifying. Except this part where i imagine all the guys would cringe at the thought of their vital parts being cut off. Ha.

Caslyn dear, i had a great time hanging with you monday and yesterday. Even when Mr Teo Kok Wee is around. Let's do this more often when you get back from nz all right? Hugs.

2007-08-06T15:02:00.000+08:00

Mr teo's grandma had a birthday celebration yesterday. We popped over for the lunch buffet and mingle with his relatives for a while before heading town to catch a movie. If you call sitting down to eat mingling. Lol. We literally had to kill 3 hours before the movie starts. At first, we happily took pictures.

As we took more,
We became like this...This is what boredom can do to us. Lol.

2007-07-22T16:39:00.000+08:00

The day after darling teo's birthday celebration. Saw a 1-for-1 coupon in a mag for a lunch buffet at the rice table. Only $13.80++! Cheap! Lazy bum wanted to take a cab there and here we are. Look at him, he loves making faces like this. Makes me wanna pinch him real bad. Hiak hiak hiak.

For lunch at the rice table, you get like 14 small dishes to try. Just ask for more if you are not full. So worth it! Coz we got the coupon! Mwhaah.

Mr teo happily drink my calamansi drink.

And it's too sour for him! Mwhaha!

Love you darling teo.

2007-07-16T13:01:00.000+08:00

Wanted to try out this tim sum place i found online. But due to time constraint (read: 3pm is the last order for tim sum), we had to sought other restaurants to fill our stomachs. And off we head to Central. Yup, i heard that it's akin to a food heaven. Lots of yummy restaurants such as sun with moon, waraku, pasta de waraku. =)

Was so tempted to eat sun with moon but decided to try the much raved about Pasta de waraku.

cubic tofu

pizza with prawn & scallop

mixed cutlet with cheese

hamburger steak

black squid ink (it's not as bad as it looks, it just leaves a black residue in your mouth =p)

Presenting to you....Dunkin' donuts!

$16 for 2 boxes..Yums!

Me and my darling!

2007-07-11T18:28:00.000+08:00

Yeah been online these days have done me a whole lot of good. Now i have lemmings for so many things. Mostly skincare. And those cost the most. Wonderful. Instead of earning some moolahs today had i gone to work, i'm most probably gonna buy half of them depleting my already dipping low account balance. -__-

And upcoming movies that i'm interested in.

I need moolahs! =(

2007-07-11T14:17:00.000+08:00

These couple of days have been extremely idle for me. I wake up whenever i please and do whatever i want. But because of my balloon-looking face, i daren't head outside the confines of my home. Sad eh? I can't even do a simple face scrub coz that side of my face is still sore. Now my facial regime has officially gone to the dogs. Grrr.

I'm practically online all day loh. I read something yesterday that really touched me. Brace yourself.
http://www.ninaberman.com/index3.php?pag=prt&dir=marine

I even tried this.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/science/humanbody/sex/add_user.shtml?users=1

Just plain bored. And i can't even work. How to go to work with my face like this?! Argh.

2007-07-10T19:14:00.000+08:00

For your information, my face is still swollen and mr teo and i have yet to cease attack on each other. =(

2007-07-09T19:04:00.000+08:00

I forgot to mention that i had my wisdom tooth extracted yesterday. Yup, and now the right side of my face looks like a freaking balloon. No joke. Sometimes i don't know what the hell 'm thinking. Before the surgery, doc remarked that he normally wouldn't do this if his patients didn't complain of pain. Yup, you guessed right. My wisdom tooth doesn't give me any pain at all. So why did i request to have my tooth extracted? Beats me. Serves me right if anything did happen. Which doc warned me it might, as my wisdom tooth is impacted pretty near my nerves. Having said all that, i would like to conclude that 'm a honest-to-god fool. =(

2007-07-08T18:50:00.000+08:00

It was horrible. These two days especially. It was like a never-ending nightmare. We just kept quarrelling and quarrelling. Urgh. We made up one minute and was quarrelling the next. Thinking about it, i really don't know why it happened the way it did. =(

I still hate thinking about it.

Darling, i'm sorry ok! I didn't mean to keep blowing my top at you. Something must have came over me coz i definately wasn't myself.

Luckily we are ok now. Phew.

PS: A PMS-ing woman is a woman on a warpath. Please take note, darling! =p

2007-06-12T17:33:00.000+08:00

I'm not itching to get a full time job anytime soon. Maybe it's because i'm not ready. Or maybe it's because i'm lazy. Or maybe, it's because i'm waiting to debond my braces so i can brim with confidence in my potential job interviews. Yeah, who am i kidding? =(

Today's darling's first day at work. And today marks the day i have to grow up. That is, i can't call darling teo up for no apparent reason at all! =(

I have been resisting the urge to call him for the whole day today! I know, i'm horrible.

Argh. I can practically envision me waiting by the door every single day for darling to come home. I believe what lies ahead must be a very boring existence for me indeed!

2007-06-06T20:22:00.000+08:00

Our anniversary dinner at the sun with moon japanese dining cafe yesterday was a worthwhile, albeit expensive one. The bill came up to 80 plus in the end. Even darling teo said the kaki bacon yaki (translate: baked oyster with bacon) was to die for! Lol.

The thing about food is that looks can be deceiving. Like the sesame pudding, it looks kinda gluey and tasteless. But it's one of my favourite dishes of the lot. Darling's too. Hehe. He said next time we dine there, we have to order sesame pudding and at least 3 plates of oysters. =)

Hot pot with crabmeat, spinach and egg

Baked oyster with bacon

Beef and foie gras with rice

Fried noodle with pork

Sesame pudding

It came looking like this..Cool eh?

Tofu cheesecake

And the cute baby we saw in the bus..Mwhaa

Darling bought me two books. Can't wait to read them! Haha. And i got him a black springfield collar top as well. Now i'm almost officially broke. Sadness. =p

2007-05-22T02:53:00.000+08:00

These days my clock's all screwed up. Yup, i sleep only at the crack of dawn. =(

Had sushi and fondue at sherry's yesterday. Yums! And mr yekai is learning how to bake a cake from sherry's mum. Interesting eh. Hehe.

Eh, mr teo, how come you never bake anything for me de? =p

The big day's approaching. I can feel the butterfies in my stomach even as i think about it.

2007-05-17T23:57:00.000+08:00

I'm back! Haha. The chalet was a 3 day 3 night affair. Basically it just meant lots of nights without sleep. I believe i might still be suffering from a serious lack of sleep even till now. And i slept the whole day today too. Hee.

Darling teo was so nice to come and accompany me even though he was really tired and had to travel all the way from holland to aloha loyang. He even stayed over. Thanks baby! You're the best!

It was a mahjong marathon from day 1. I don't think i have ever played so much mj in 3 days! Mwhaha. The bad thing was that i lost 20 bucks. Luckily, got darling sponsor! Haha.

The stay was over so fast.

I kinda miss it already. =(

2007-05-11T22:46:00.000+08:00

It was really weird. Right after they collect the answer scripts, i felt really lost and disoriented. Like, what’s next? There’s no more holidays for 2 months and then back to school. This is it. Yucks is the word.

Finally caught spiderman today. It was pretty good. Except the parts where spidey became dark and vengeful. He even hit mary jane. And harry died. And yes i cried. =(

Dr mohan’s wedding is tomorrow. And I don’t have a single thing to wear. Figures.

I.need.retail.therapy.

2007-05-03T20:15:00.000+08:00

Ages. It’s been ages since i have written anything. I guess i just got tired of it all.
Felt the itch to type out my frustrations all of a sudden.
Hear me roar. =(
My life is so mundane and so so routine.
To top it off, i have no social life. Zilch, nada. Get it?
I felt that i have achieved nothing in life.
People join new face or miss singapore. But me? Nothing.
Not that i’m daring enough to anyway.
I’m not in close contact with caslyn and evelyn anymore. They are like my favourite bunch of people once upon a time. And i hate that.
Now i only go out with my bf and cousins. Not that i don’t like it or anything. It’s just that here the hell are all my friends? Doesn’t mean that i have a bf now i can’t hang out with you guys.
I have no goals, nothing to look forward to.
And i have to start working soon. Yucks.
God, why am i feeling this way?
Does everybody go through this stage? This stage of utter boredom? Discontentment? Restlessness?
Urgh.

2007-01-13T22:59:00.000+08:00

Some people just rub you the wrong way.

Have you ever had a spurt of anger that threatened to spill over if you don't contain it?
Have you ever struggle to bite back the retort on your tongue?
Have you ever thought to yourself, "No way i'm going to waste my energy on him/her?"

I have.

Sometimes people just don't get along.
It's sad.
But there's no two ways about it.

2007-01-12T23:28:00.000+08:00

Just the other day when i was glazing into mr teo's eyes, i realized that he has single eyelids! However, absent-minded me keeps forgetting that. So everytime i see his single eyelids, i'll go like, " Darling you got single eyelids leh, i didn't know that!" shrieked me.

Like DUH!

I know this is a totally nonsensical post. Bite me.

2007-01-04T22:07:00.000+08:00

Yes we have moved!

If you don't know what i'm talking about, yesterday was the clinic's big moving day. I had to travel to boon lay to work in the morning and then rush back to gombak in the afternoon to help with the moving.

Lucky me was allowed to claim cab fares. Ha.

Now my bones ache like nobody's business. I feel like a wuss right now. Pui.

But i earned a box of marks and spencer's belgian chocolates! Ha.

2007-01-02T21:16:00.000+08:00

Raeanne. Such a pretty name. I swear that's gonna be the name of my first child in the future. Let's just hope that it's a girl and not a boy eh. We wouldn't want to call him Raeanne now, would we?

2007-01-02T15:01:00.000+08:00

I need to chain myself to my bed. Somehow.

Coz i just blew a couple h**dred on shopping yesterday.

Typical me.

Yeah and i can try convince myself it's clothes and accessories for the new year.

I admit. I have a roving eye. Not that kind, mind you, but the shopping kind.

I almost did spent more if not for the fact that there isn't my size left.

Luckily i still have the bonus to tide me over.

Right now, new year resolutions will have to keep me in check.

Since i don't own any chains.

2007-01-01T21:44:00.000+08:00

My movie list
~the wicker man
~pan's labyrinth
and maybe even
~borat
~stranger than fiction

A girl's gotta have something to look forward to, right?

Happy new year, everyone!

It's about time

2006-12-31T15:59:00.000+08:00

It's about time i got my computer back, in my opinion. I have been living like a hermit ever since. And i'm glad to say that i have long lost the compulsive need to be online every single day. At least i think i have. We'll see, wouldn't we? Ha.

2006-11-11T00:14:00.000+08:00

Just the other day, i saw this pair of denim capris from espirit that look so good. God i'm so tempted to buy. Coz you know i never look good in anything that is not a skirt. But this, this i actually look okay. It's not exactly cheap though so i have to think about it. Long and hard about it. I have to think about teoteo's christmas present and his anniversary gift too! Oh no! Will someone please buy them for me? I'm getting desperate here! =(

2006-11-10T23:37:00.000+08:00

My back hurts like the very devil. Right as i sat down for my LM paper. Grrr. What a way to start the paper. 3 freaking hours. My momo pasted some kind of medicated plaster on me just. Three of them in fact. I'm like what? 2o and i have to depend on this already? Great, just great.

2006-11-08T23:47:00.000+08:00

I can't wait for exams to be over. Though i would have no excuse to not go to work then. But heck i'll be at least earning my keep. And that my friend, pleases me tremendously. =)

2006-11-06T23:55:00.000+08:00

Step up. Not much of a story. But if you just want to see dancing (and a cute face, read: Channing Tatum), i suggest you head straight for the cinema right now. The dancing's top notch. Not that i'm any of an expert. But if you must know, it's ranked up there with my all-time favourites like you got served, save the last dance, honey etc. I just love watching them dance. Awww.

2006-10-29T22:40:00.000+08:00

The weekend flew. And it's flying as i type now. I guess this means the end of my reprieve. Hopefully tomorrow i'll muster up enough energy to start something. Right. Hopefully right after i finish my new novel. Gag me.

2006-10-17T13:05:00.000+08:00

A tueday. Speaking of which, darling's coming back this thursday. I know, there's no link but what the heck right? Lol. He's coming in at 1.30am and i'm going to pick him up. I checked the last train's timing and it sucks can. Coz the last train to changi airport at tanah merah's at 2317. So means i have to stick around that place for say, two hours? =(

2006-10-17T12:49:00.000+08:00

Ohh guess what? I'm finally on elastics. Means that i'm on my way to pulling my back teeth front to close the gaps. So exciting eh! =p

2006-10-16T00:13:00.000+08:00

Can you believe the nerve of some people? They owe you rent for like two months. On top of that, there's the electricity, water bill etc. They keep saying they will pay you back. Kept coming up with excuses. Saying that when what and what comes through, they will get right to it. But guess what? They are all empty promises. All fucking shenanigans. Only my dad will keep believing them. These people are full of fucking crap. What the fuck do you think you're doing? Cheating my poor trusting dad? Why don't you fucking pay up? Seriously go fuck yourself if you can't even keep your word.

See, why do you have to get me all riled up like this? Just pay the fuck up.

Pardon me for my language. This is all directed at those freaking idiots.

2006-10-15T16:54:00.000+08:00

My computer died on me. Again. No warnings, no whatever. This has to happen annually i think. Just like last year. No surprises there hur. Guess i will be blogging even less now. Too bad.

2006-10-11T14:05:00.000+08:00

Here i go again....

2006-10-10T23:33:00.000+08:00

Met up with jem for a way overdue retail therapy. And yeah i was late. I am terribly sorry. I really did try okay. Thank goodness jem's murderous mood thing didn't last very long. =) Maybe a hungry man is an angry man. Lol.
The food part:

At spageddies.

My lamb shank

Jem's crayfish and tenderloin combo

The total bill came up to $26 plus. Me thinks it's pretty cheap. Heehee.
The retail therapy part:

At david britton:

I tried like 20 pairs of jeans. Ok, maybe 15. I really felt so bad when i saw the pile of jeans that i discarded. Heng i found something i like and bought it. I bet darling would love it! I can't wait for him to come back and show it for him. In order not to spoil the surprise and all, pictures would not be shown. But you can bet your ass that it's bea-you-tee-ful! =)

At ztamp:

I found two gorgeous tops at the scrap corner. And it's only $10 each!

And i so want the latest vera wong fragrance! The packaging is so preetty! Hint hint! Haha.

Anyways, caught little miss sunshine with ah peng. I gotta admit, even though i practically got coerced into watching it, it's real good. Go catch it if you haven't!

I'm extra happy today coz i finally bought my concealer and royce chocolates!

2006-10-05T13:15:00.000+08:00

I'm like interested in every movie available! And i'm just getting started. Heehee.

2006-09-29T23:35:00.000+08:00

Caught stay alive in the afternoon before darling left last night. It wasn't as bloody as i thought it would be. Lots of vague details when it comes to the purposedly horrific murder scenes. Too bad. I would have love those scenes man.

I can't get over the fact that i could have accompanied darling for a couple more hours before he left. But i was ill-disposed because of a certain monthly ailment so i couldn't go with him to his granma's place. Argh!

2006-09-29T23:33:00.000+08:00

Know what? It has only been one day and i'm missing him like crazy. I hope this is the last time he goes on any trip without me! I feel lovesick already. My middle name must be hopeless! =(

2006-09-28T22:30:00.000+08:00

Darling's gone. I'm downright depressed i think. Or numb. It doesn't matter anyway.

2006-09-25T17:15:00.000+08:00

Basically i have been waiting for the mid-autumn festival to arrive since like eon ago. No joke okay.

Do you know that Fullerton Hotel has mooncakes like the Fullerton Royaltine Crunchy Chocolate Mooncake and Fullerton Chocolate Baileys Mooncake?

And Szechuan Court from Raffles The Plaza, Baileys mooncakes and mini snowskin crunchy chocolate pearl?

Marriott too has their 'Ebony & ivory' Whisky Chocolate Praline snowskin mooncakes.

Even Bakerzin (one of my favourite dessert shop, mind you), has pink champagne truffle mini snowskin, single malt whisky truffle mini snowskin and lavender truffle mini snowskin.

Which i bought two days back, just so you know. Heehee.

Yeah i'm a chocolate lover. I can't deny it.

But do you know that each mooncake possess 1000 calories?
A girl got to eat what a girl got to eat though.
=p

2006-09-10T14:23:00.000+08:00

Darling left me at home to play bowling and snooker with his friends. =( He don't let me tag along coz he say i must study. So mean hor! Haiz. Now i'm stuck at home with the inevitable task of reading my international finance notes. Test's tomorrow. With all things considered, i'm think i'm doomed. Plus i'm feeling sleeeppy already. Pui!

2006-09-08T22:25:00.000+08:00

Good gracious. I think i'm suffering from OCD. It's obsessive compulsive disorder in case you were wondering.

OCD is a type of anxiety that happens when there is a problem with the way the brain deals with normal worrying and doubts. People with OCD worry a lot. And they feel afraid about bad things that could possibly happen.

People with OCD worry so much that they can spend many hours, or even the whole day, worrying about things and trying to make sure the bad things they worry about don't happen.

With OCD, someone may have obsessions about:
~germs or dirt
~illness or injury (involving the person or someone else)
~coming across unlucky numbers or words
~things being even or straight
~things being perfect or just right in a certain way
~making mistakes or not being sure
~doing or thinking something bad

Figures. =(

2006-09-06T00:57:00.000+08:00

Did pedicure today with cindy dear! It was only finished moments before meeting mr teo so in the end, i had to forgo blow-drying my nails. You can be sure that i kept them from people's roaming feets all night long though! Heehee. Now my toes are painted a lovely girlie pink. I love my toenails to bits! =)

Caught pretty persuasion with mr teo. He thinks it's only mediocre. I find it insanely hilarious and entertaining though. I dig it! Hiak hiak hiak.

2006-09-05T00:16:00.000+08:00

I got a call from the clinic today. The results were out. But guess what? The results were inconclusive. Looks like i got to wait another week before taking the test again. This reeks okay. To high heaven. >_<

Spizza for dinner before heading to school. Loved the smoked salmon! I likey i likey! =p

On another note, i'm so glad you came down to accompany me just now. Means a lot to me you know? Thanks so muchie dear. =)

2006-09-04T12:59:00.000+08:00

I'm back from the dinner. Remember i need to find a dress for my company's d n d? Yup, the very same one. Right now i need to mourn over my loss. The what could have beens. Coz i didn't win anything last night! Devastating lah. =( And yes i will post the pictures up when i finish sorting them out okay?

2006-09-03T01:08:00.000+08:00

It's the devil wears prada this time uh. I lublublub the fabulous bags, clothes and shoes they were wearing in the movie. It's bee-you-tee-ful. *salivates*
You know what? It doesn't even matter if the movie's good or not coz all the clothes and bags in the show are enough to make it worthwhile.
Yes i watched it with mr teoteo of course. Come to think of it, we had a string of bad luck.
First we missed two buses, next the strap of my favourite red shoe broke. God, i had to limp across the dusty road with one shoe left on my feet. I really resent that okay. I almost lost my camera and to top it off, darling nearly lost his wallet.
Just our luck. =(
This is my teoteo wearing the mambo t-shirt i bought him. He's wearing another tee inside coz he says can see his nehneh. Mwhaha. I happen to find it really funny. *snorts*
I'm wearing my miss sixty jeans! I lub it. I lub it. =D

Here's the words on his tee shirt. Makes me laugh. Hee.

Lalalala.

Dinner at pasta cafe. Looks good eh? I had slipper lobster pasta and darling had beef lasagne. With french fries that comes with five different sauces. Yums!

To add to the string of bad luck, i broke a bottle when i got home. =(

2006-09-02T11:46:00.000+08:00

Went out to have dinner with my dear peng peng despite an ailing stomach. Ya and i got my just deserts. I ended up doing my business in the lavatory of marina mandarin! Lol.

Dinner at azabusabo. You probably would have notice this japanese restaurant at marina square. They also have an ice cream palor right outside their restaurant. I ordered this seaweed-wrapped salmon with rice and hamburger steak. The hamburger steak was really good but i had a hard time eating the wrapped salmon with rice. Check it out. It's the first and second picture.

We had milk tea and green tea flavours for our ice cream! It's really delicious. They even have sesame flavour! Or is it black sesame? Hah. I would really love to try the other flavours though.

Photo-taking session after my erm, bombing session. Oops.

See peng peng's lashes? Nice hor? I do one lor. I mean put on the mascara lah. =p

2006-09-02T01:34:00.000+08:00

Sigh. Even looking at it makes me drool. Chocolate has this way of making you feel better, no? Ahh, the wonders of chocolate. =)
We had this like, days ago at haagen daz.

Shared this sinful fondue with peng peng. Haven't you notice she has become my partner in crime lately? Lol.

The long awaited for watson's sale is here! I finally bought my za stuff! Hee. I also acquired this green bohemian top from forever 21. Eh retail therapy helps to chase the monday blues away i think. Yeah it's a little premature but it works! Haha.

2006-09-01T14:54:00.000+08:00

Yes i'm worried.
In fact, i'm freaking, over-the-top worried.
I was advised by the doctor to take a blood test and i did.
Now all i got to do is wait patiently for the results to get back.
Tell me, how do you wait for results that might tell you things you are not prepared to hear?

In case you don't know or i neglected to tell you, i have been experiencing pain in my stomach and my lower back.
Yes it bothers me so much that i can't get up from my seat sometimes. Now, is that a cause for worry or not?

And please don't tell me things like i have no choice okay!
I bloody hell know that.
I just need care and concern from you.
And lots of it!
This is directed at the not-so-good at talking mr teo!

2006-08-29T11:04:00.000+08:00

Met up with jem for a bit of shopping. Now i'm lemming for a pair of miss sixty jeans! Oops.
I really need to find a dress for my company's d n d this sunday. Saw something that might be suitable but i'm reserving my opinion till later.
Eh jem, seems like we are always having din tai fung everytime we meet. Lol. Tada!

I love my xiao long baos! I had to order 10 at one go! Slurps!

And these crispy prawn pancake are so delectable! We also had something soup-based but i forgot the name of the dish. =(

My loot for the day? A top from closet affair. It looks like this.

The prints up close. I lublublub the pretty floral patterns!

I enjoyed myself today. Jem, thanks for the accompany. =)

2006-08-27T23:35:00.000+08:00

Yup, another movie to talk about. This time round, its lovewrecked.

Well it's like any other typical romantic comedy. But you see, amanda bynes managed to look effortlessly funny even when the content's pretty predictable. That's what i like about her. She oozes mirth. Granted it wasn't as funny as she's the man but hey, watch it for a good laugh ya?

Ever notice this red lounge at cineleisure level 5? They actually serve food and drinks for a pretty decent price. This is what peng peng and me had before the movie yesterday. Not too bad for the price i think. =)

2006-08-26T11:18:00.000+08:00

Everything really does seem better in the morning.
Though things at work has taken for the worse last night, i'm almost glad it did.
I wouldn't have picked up the phone and call you if it didn't.
That i'm sure.
I think now i can safely say that we are okay. =)

************************************************
Dear boyfriend, i'm sorry for ignoring you when you made the effort to come cheer me up. Forgive me okay?

2006-08-24T21:07:00.000+08:00

Yesterday was an extremely long day. Hur, i don't even want to think about it. Bleah.
But at night was different. Mr teo and i made plans to have japanese buffet at kuishinbo!
Had to try out this restaurant coz of the good reviews i heard.
I would give it a 7/10.
=)

I couldn't help it. I took tons of desserts even though we were really stuffed. I'm sorry, darling. Hiak hiak.

And then there was zouk. Yesh mr teo and i went zouk! =D
I lub lub lub mambo night! I miss it, the retro music, the booze, the dancing and the hot guys! Hohoho!
I want i want to go dancing again. Please take me there soon? Heehee.

2006-08-23T02:00:00.000+08:00

At the last possible minute, they called and ask for help. So yeah i was resurrected to work today. =(
To think that mr teo and i had already made plans for the evening. Boo hoo.
Ps, i was at work in half an hour flat ok.
I learnt some really interesting things at work though. Things i'm both aghasted and nosey about. Oh my.
Told the bf and he couldn't believe it either.
The notorious skirt chaser. His philandering ways.
Makes me shiver.
It isn't fair.
I just hope someone will let the cat out of the bag soon.

2006-08-20T20:43:00.000+08:00

It's louis koo! Picture's a bit blurry coz taken from a really far distance. But he really cute eh? =p

Little things make me happy. Like this. And ayam panggang which we had for dinner yesterday. Ahh this is when i feel my life's all good.

Mr teo has been encountering problems with his handphone for a really long time. I can hear him complaining in my head even now. Lol.

He couldn't wait for 23rd august to get here coz he can then upgrade to a new phone!

It's here. Erm, well not technically but the bf tried his luck at taka's singtel shop and voila!

Maroon is sooo pretty!

Somehow i doubt this request was approved due to the goodness of their heart. =)

Mr teo is nonetheless very excited about his new phone. So much so that he woke up at 730 this morning to figure out his phone. BOYS! Can never figure them out!

2006-08-19T14:52:00.000+08:00

" Even if people are talking shit about you, it's better than them not talking about you at all".

Wise words.

Enough said.

=)

2006-08-19T00:00:00.000+08:00

Mr teo and i haven't been watching movies for ages! *gasp* Coz i watched the ones he's interested in and he's sulking. Heehee.

Just a while back, mr teo and i were lamenting the lack of places to go. We are always doing the same old, same old. Movies, shopping, eating out. At this rate things are going, we are going to suffer from dementia sooner rather than later!

I have given it some thought and come up with some places that we can go. It's now waiting for approval. Yes from mr teo, who else?

I can't wait! =)

2006-08-17T22:57:00.000+08:00

I was treated like royalty last night. Yup you guess it! By mr teo.
Mwhaha. I lubbb it!
He suggested going to this mexican restaurant at holland v that i have been dying to try out.
But we went to the one beside it in the end. Coz there's this really nice waiter (who looks foreign-ly mexican to me) explaining their specialty dishes to us. =)

El Patio

We had chicken fajita, 2 servings of mexican rice, a margarita, a dessert called empanadas and complimentary nachos. Hohoh!

Dinner was pretty yummy! Me likey!

Ps, i love making up, darling.

2006-08-16T23:20:00.000+08:00

Mr teo and i are all right now. I think. =)

2006-08-16T16:45:00.000+08:00

I'm sad. I can't help it. I cry. I'm at a loss. I hate it.

2006-08-16T02:15:00.000+08:00

Maybe we were wrong to start it.
Maybe all along it was staring us right in the face.
Maybe, just maybe it was not meant to be.

Goodbye, my lover.

2006-08-15T18:16:00.000+08:00

Yes i skipped lecture last evening.
I caught this movie instead.
It's not something that i would usually watch.
Coz i'm not really a historical person as you can see.
I like it though.
But remember, it's mostly dialogues.
And it's a 2 hours show.
I can't believe the horrific way hitler treated the jews and anyone who opposed him.
Even those who sway with words were punished harshly.
Total madness.
The people of germany were practically blinded to his terrorizing ways.
Fools.
And execution was done by chopping off heads.
Boy am i glad i wasn't born in that era.

On a weekday after 10, the only places left to eat in town are solely limited.
We settled on hong kong cafe in the end.
Had a bit of everything.
Kinda like the toast with condensed milk and peanut butter.
Sinful eh.
Slurps.

2006-08-14T13:11:00.000+08:00

I'm tired of feeling the way i do. It's time i learn to take things in stride. Just like what the bf said.

2006-08-13T23:29:00.000+08:00

Wore this pair of heels yesterday.
First time wearing it and it gave me blisters.
Hmpf.
I even had to buy a new pack of plasters for it.
I looked so pathetic.
Limping along on my bf's arm.
Stop giving me blisters, you hear?
Or i'll gladly wear something else!

Grabbed dinner at din tai fung since it wasn't that crowded yet and boy i miss the xiao long baos! =)

And this is dessert. Dublin mudslide and somethign else. Sweet.

The fireworks were so pretty. A pity that it was so crowded. There was just so many people. I could almost get headaches from seeing people everywhere. Hell, i almost became deranged.

Look! Pretty, isn't it?

I love taking pictures. Of me, mr teo, food, everything! Mwhaha!

******************************

On another note, i was really worn out last night. Maybe coz we walked all the way from esplanade to clarke quay. =(

Think it was the walking. Coz i got up for work angry and everything, wanting to quit my clinic job.

Weird uh?

I swear i would never go see fireworks again!

2006-08-12T14:15:00.000+08:00

I didn't exactly work throughout the night like i had planned.
I succumb.
Yup.
For a bit of dreamland.
For 3 odd hours too.
I slept 12 hours the night before so that i could stay awake last night.
Yikes.
Horrible horrible me.
I'm glad that it's over.

2006-08-10T22:03:00.000+08:00

So it was click.
Honestly, i thought it was going to be another one of adam sandler's comedies.
But it was good!
It was funny and nothing like the lame-ass jokes from comedies these days.
And not to mention heartwarming.
I love it!
It tells you about family.
About family being the most important thing.
Even the good, the bad and the ugly.
I love my family, even with its random clown acts and everything.
=)
Bought darling a shirt from adidas.
I hope he likes it!
Haa.
To end the day, we shared a banana boat from yami yoghurt, shilin's crispy chicken and fried mars bar from chippy.
Nope it was not dinner.
Gosh i think we could have carried on eating.
If we didn't have to get home for dinner.
=p

************************************************
Will you still love me in the morning?
Forever and ever, babe.
Michael and Donna Newman
'Click'

2006-08-10T14:18:00.000+08:00

Plan was to get to work as soon as i woke up today. But i woke up late for starters. Then i got tempted to watch movie with peng peng. Urgh, i'm indeed incorrigible. =(

2006-08-09T22:37:00.000+08:00

National Day came and went just like that.
Caught a movie with justin.
A last minute thing.
Something on my list of movies.
My super ex-girlfriend.
Managed to visit eveline dear at chanel counter too.
Chose a shade that suits my skin tone so that she could help me place order.
Thanks darling!
Had ben & jerry's ice cream.
And shilin's crispy chicken.
Sweet!
And dinner at ichiban boshi.
At this corner of wisma that i never paid much attention to.
Think their value sets are pretty worth it.
Chawanmushi, sashimi, appetizer, fruits, bowl of rice plus main dish which you can choose.

All for $14.90.
At least the one i chose.
We ordered some side dishes as well.
Thinking we could finish it.
We over estimated ourselves.
We were quite literally stuffed!

2006-08-09T00:37:00.000+08:00

It's done! Go check it out at http://a-serene-affair.blogspot.com/! =)

2006-08-07T18:17:00.000+08:00

I'm supposed to be in the midst of my hrm assignment by now. The thing is, i haven't even read the requirements yet!

But i'm still going to put up necklaces and charmed bracelets that i have made recently up for grabs! Promise!

Just be a little more patient okay?

=)

2006-08-06T00:03:00.000+08:00

My eyes are drifting shut.
They have, like, a will of their own.
Plus my shoulder blades hurt like the very devil.
Boo hoo.

2006-08-03T23:18:00.000+08:00

I can't upload my photos!
*pui*
Well then.
I shall do up a list of things mr teo do that makes me love him more.

1) when he looks at me with that silly smile of his
2) when he mouthed the words "i lub you" if he catches me looking over at him
3) when he gives in to me even though he knows 'm just throwing my tantrum
4) when he makes funny faces just to cheer me up
5) when he accompanies me to watch movies i like even though he doesn't like them
6) when he waits patiently outside my clinic for me to finish work
7) when he accompanies me on my impromptu shopping trips
8) when he supports my decisions no matter how hare-brained they are
9) when he wipes my tears away after he realizes i've been crying
10) when he holds me as if he won't let go

Hmpf. I'm tired of thinking of things that puts mr teo in a good light.
=p

2006-08-02T22:37:00.000+08:00

I really like marks & spencer's foodstuff. They are sooo good! My first time buying these to try and i must admit that the milk chocolate digestive biscuits are to-die-for!
*slurps*

Caught dragon tiger gate with mr teoteo. Me thinks shawn yu's hair colour in the movie just made him look plain odd. Thumbs up for the kungfu moves though!
Coolness.
=)

Had a little squabble with darling in the movie theatre. Hur. Tomorrow will be a better day i hope.

Bought this flirty skirt at hula & co. Found a few spots but nothing that can't be mend. And got a 20% discount for it.
I'm a happy happy girl now!

***************
Tip of the day
~Nothing like a kit kat to make the bf happy (coz that's his favourite candy bar!) =p

2006-07-31T14:57:00.000+08:00

Woke up at 7.

Just to accompany the bf to ndc to have his left wisdom teeth extracted.

He has this thing call the buffer timing. *pui*

And my silly bf forgot his wallet. Hurhur.

~inserts uncontrollable laughter

I'm a witch coz i woke up at the crack of dawn can.

I'm kinda worried about him though. He's in pain even after taking the painkillers. And he's cold. It's blardy hot outside ok! And he's never cold.

*cross my fingers and my toes*

2006-07-30T21:35:00.000+08:00

Oh and kk? Thanks for the heartwarming breakfast cum lunch. =) Can't help but laugh when i thought of how you waited for me outside all the while.

Oops.

I am apologetic.

*grins*

***********************
It's never too late to appreciate someone hor. =)

2006-07-29T23:12:00.000+08:00

My mok mok is the absolute greatest.

Know why?

Coz she bought me a take home pack from yami yoghurt yesterday.

And she bought it in my favourite flavour!

Woo hoo.

My mok mok truly knows the way to my heart!

Three cheers for mok mok!

2006-07-29T21:11:00.000+08:00

We started talking again. Feels good. Honest. =) Been having little spats with the bf too. Its me lah. A little keggy. Yes. I know there's no such word. I coined it can.

This patient ask for my number at work. Darn funny loh. I lub it when the bf gets jealous. Hohoho. Boss commented that my tummy's flat. Yeah it is getting flatter and 'm getting skinnier. Shit.

The fast and the furious is awesome can! I love the car races and the drifting. Superb! Babes and car drifting. What more can you ask for?

Insufficient sleep coz the movie was a late one and i had to work almost a 12-hour shift. God. My eyes can pop out last night.

Ohh my stomach hurts right now. Damn.

2006-07-27T22:59:00.000+08:00

Three down. One more to go! My books lah. What were you thinking? =p

There is nothing like reading a book that brings you to another place, another world. Don't you agree?

I can't tear my eyes off the book, not even for a minute. It's that absorbing.

Ahh my life is beautiful. Only becoz of the books.

=)

2006-07-26T22:51:00.000+08:00

Another classic.

I love it.
Caught it with peng peng.

Cried too.

No surprise there.
*pout*

2006-07-25T22:12:00.000+08:00

Made the bf go all the way to bugis with me to try this restaurant. But ended up eating kfc coz the stoopid restaurant's not open during non lunch hours!

Lazy bf wanted to sit down coz the weather was so hot. Weakling!

Luckily it's the library he chose. I got to borrow four books. Yippee!

2006-07-24T15:04:00.000+08:00

I woke up on the wrong side of the bed today.
At least i think i did.
Coz 'm feeling all sorts of things.
It could be the dream/nightmare that i had.
Or the fact that i woke up with my bones aching all over.
The hell of it is.
I just can't get it out of my system.
My days are just passing by.
With a snap of my fingers.
I've done nothing.
Accomplished nothing.
Learn nothing.
Compared to cindy, who working her ass off, i literally did not work at all.
All i do is to slack at home.
Watch tv.
I need a wake-up call.

2006-07-23T22:19:00.000+08:00

I love rare occasions like this. To be able to wake up on sunday mornings and not be going to work. To top it off, i watched my favourite csi drama for three straight hours. *smiles*

Darling and i indulged in a game of monopoly for another 3 odd hours. I got beaten really badly. *pui*

And then we watched bring it on.

That pretty much sums up our day.

2006-07-23T12:19:00.000+08:00

Ended up missing hrm lecture yesterday. But had mok mok's lemak for lunch to make up for it. =p It is and still remain one of my favourite dishes by mok mok!
Used ah pi's free pair of gv tix to catch pirates at ps at the last minute. Hur hur.
3 hours plus to kill before the movie so we decide to grab dinner early. It was like 5 plus. God.

New york new york seem to be the latest thing in town now. It took over the space from nooch at citylink mall and was already 85% full at 5 plus.
Being the typical singaporeans that we are, we have to try.
Big big mistake ok.
The bill came up to 40 bucks. For only one starter, one drink and two main dishes. Plus i tried to pick the cheapest thing on the menu. We weren't full too. The only thing nice was the roasted mushroom cappuccino.

5.5/10. Plus points for the decor though.

Being lemming for this since ages ago but couldn't bear to buy it. Now it's on sale! Cheap cheap now. Yup, i come to realize 'm a cheapo. Darling's the best coz he spared me the agony of buying it myself. =)

Willy wonka! Mwhah. Exclusively at candy empire. I implored darling to bring me to millenia walk so i could get my wonka chocolates leh.

I finally bought my triple chocolate crunch from marks and spencer! Woo hoo. Think the stock just came in coz it's always sold out when i ask them. One word. Terrific.

Picture of the day!

2006-07-22T13:25:00.000+08:00

This was almost 2 weeks ago. Yeah, lazy me again. =( Met up with my dear cousins finally. Watched thank you for smoking, largely introduced by daniel, i think. Haha. Which surprisingly tickled my funny bone. So yeah, it was a nice watch.

Fish & co for dinner. Scrumptious. We work for our food, i must say. Picture-taking!

I had the seafood platter. Very nice leh, no matter how many times i order it. Hohoho.

Peng peng and me! She got braces too!

Ermm pardon my fugly braces. Here's dan and me.

And my boy. He has a perpetual comical face i think. =p

2006-07-21T23:12:00.000+08:00

Mok mok invited me to spend the night in her room coz daddy's not going to be home tonight. Who can resist air conditioning in this heat and time?

Lalalala.

2006-07-20T13:57:00.000+08:00

Took mr teo to cafe modestos yesterday. I pick modestos coz i heard they serve really good fired-wood pizzas. And you know my boy loves pizzas. =)
What we had:

I tell you, their pizzas are fan-ta-bul-ous! Big and yummy! I likey!

Ordered their lasagna as well. The thing is, we didn't expect their pizza to come that big a size. So in the end, we were really stuffed!

A little camera-whoring on the way home. I 'heart' my new top and my darling! =p

2006-07-19T13:21:00.000+08:00

No one can be a saint all the time. Especially not me. And lemme ask you something else, who likes to be taken for granted?

I admit i may have shot my mouth off today, but haven't you done the same?

There's a limit to my niceness.

2006-07-17T22:31:00.000+08:00

It used to be a public blog. One where all my friends could see. But now no more. I don't need details of my life gossiped among them. I wana choose whatever i want to say to whoever i want to. If you ask and i like the likes of you, i'd let you into my world.

Yup, too bad.

2006-07-17T13:45:00.000+08:00

Oh dear! I have no idea what to get pi pi for his birthday this friday. And to make matters worse, i have to work till 10pm. Stoopid stupid me! Who ask me never plan ahead of time?! Grr!

But pi pi ah, you must know 'm forgoing doing something important just coz of you ok!
