Blessings from above=)

just broke camp that started on monday!didnt enjoy myself throughly coz that time of the month came.=(experienced the "oh shitty pain" cramps.so didnt go for the wet games. went to send my dad off at the airport, i now have the honda airwave officially for the whole of this week!but, since i was in sch from mon-wed, didnt get to use the car much. work in orchard will not really see me using the car.coz of the crazy parking rates plus the many many erp gentrys!=(

and yes, today was the first day of my part time job as a TOTAL promoter for the F1 season. didnt get to take much pictures on the job. didnt bring my cam, too heavy to lug around. its all happening in town, along wheelock to Hilton hotel. great photos.but the uniform.crap.i shant say much.the photos will speak for itself.

anw, it was my 2nd time in orchard ion, and yes, heard all the hype on Bread Society, decided to make a trip down and see how good isit!

reg and i were sooo cash strapped that we bought bread which we were afraid we didnt have enough money for. the total price was $6.90. i had $6.70 only.reg had no cash.the shop didnt accept card.so we had to dig thru our bags and wallets once more to squeeze the last 20 cents out.and it was a miracle that we managed to find 20cents!gosh.it was embarrassing having to dig thru wallet after wallet,coin purse after coin purse. and we left bread society with a bag full of bread for our lunch and dinner AND WITH AN EMPTY WALLET.


heard sooo much about the spinach bun, just had to try it!felt really healthy after eating it!

every mouthful has spinach and CHEESE IN IT!=)mmm


the mini tomato bun. wasnt that fantastic.




BEST BREAD OF THE DAY.dont look at its tiny size, but its chock full of flavour, bursting with cheese on top, and inside the mini bun, no bigger than a "siew mai"!=0

because this was the first bun we tried, our expectations went sky high, only to see them plummet by the time i ate the 3rd bun of the day: double cheese.(no biggie=()


reg, very very very very happy with her buy.


and something good happened today!

reg and i went to Dr Coffee, some atas coffee place which we thought would be cheaper than starbucks, but we were wrong. the minimum price was $7.50 for a tall cup. and yes, add whip cream, add $1 lor!=(reg was a little unhappy, but the guy behind the counter said, "nvm, for u free!"hahaha.must be her charms.

and while we were walking along wheelock, giving out the discount vouchers for engine oil change from TOTAL, i was bored, decided to give the guy behind the Orange Julius counter a copy. after i gave it to him, he asked if i wanted ice cream. i said i was gona buy it after work. but he said"nvm, i give u now".i was pleasantly surprised!!!haha.reg and i were betting if we would get anything from the stalls along the road today.coz we kept walking up and down!and yes, i enjoyed my very very delicious vanilla cone which would have normally cost $2.50!!!(God must have knew i was broke.haha)

and i wasnt sure if i looked very hungry and poor to the orange julius guy.

gona sleep soon. need to do lots of sleep catching up!!!!and yes, im halfway thru my mid term break=(didnt wish it would end so soon.

BIG ANNOUNCEMENT!!!

hahaha.i am so happy and proud that i have to write this down in my blog. history made on 18 september 2009!

MY DAD ALLOWED ME TO DRIVE HIS CAR WITHOUT HIM IN IT!!!!!!

oh my gosh.hahaha.eversince i passed, he has never allowed me to sit behind the wheel on my own=(i remember how i started driving his car. when i just passed. when i had the wheel.


these would be his habits whenever i was behind the wheel:
1. hand constantly on handbrake.
2. before i can step on the brake, :" slow down, brake,red light"
3."let me park the car"
4. "why u turn so wide?". "why you cannot brake earlier?"

he did improve on point number 1,2 recently.

but the biggie was when he finally let me drive without him last night!hahaha. although he made sure Jansen was with me in the car, the thing was he wasnt in the car!!hahaha.i was overjoyed. but it was really stressful, because i had to take my dads trust NOT FOR GRANTED!hahaha.i was driving pretty precariously man.i wasnt used to it, usually when i drive other people's car. i am SAFE AND COMFORTABLE.but last night, i was super not comfortable, i was too concerned over protecting the car man.hahaha.i had to make sure my dad would be able to trust me with the car alone in future. big reputation to maintain man!

having my 3rd flea market for this year!and i really enjoy flea markets, can get rid of stuff i dont need, earn money to make way for new ones!hahaha.where else can i do that?

for tomorrow, it will be at 8D Dempsey Road, from 1pm onwards!!!do drop by!im sure everyone can find something for a steal 2ml!esp at my shop.hahaha.i usually sell stuff way below its resale value la!i think.im just happy to be able to get rid of it. the value that i get back is a bonus.coz otherwise, i would just give it away.

more details here

finger joints hurting pretty badly recently. It doesnt affect me when im climbing, but it hurts when i finish climbing.i dont wanto end my climbing stint so soon!!!=(i still havent reached my peak yet.

the one week break is here!!hahaha.having a rockclimbing camp from mon-wed, and from wed-sun!i will be working as a F1 promoter!yay!for a brand TOTAL. not sure what it is though. and yes, hope i get to wear cool uniforms.pay is decent. can go into my savings for my year end climbing trip to INDIA! (Hampi)

shall stop here. i want to play with the stuff i bought from DIASO just now!!daiso rocks.

those childhood days.

had a good climb at Safra on saturday!though i only did 2 climbs, remind me not to bother queuing on saturdays, the human traffic is worse than a traffic jam on a expressway. there was an invisible queue system going on, which u either had to be super calculative or good memory to remember the order of your climb.sigh.

but i must have perspired enough to make me feel like i did quite a bit of climbing. managed to onsight a under 18 route on one of the walls. i was really glad i did not request to rest on the wall like i would normally do. i nvr really liked to feel pumped till i lost grip on the tiles, so i rather shout "tight" and just let go. i didnt like the feeling of getting so pumped that my fingers gave way and i would either fall a little or fall alot.depending on how much rope has been slacked for me. but this time round, i was feeling surprisingly "strong", didnt feel pumped enough to downclimb and rest.haha.Jansen's encouragement helped me a little because each time he cheered me on, i knew i was getting closer to finishing the route. and when i finally did end!i was pumped. enough to make myself rest!and there!i did it!my first onsight at Safra. though i ouught not to feel all proud and all. after all the route was meant for competitiors UNDER 18!hahaha.i am 21, so i shdnt be too happy upon finishing it. but its a good confidence booster=)

after a hearty lunch at Northpoint and went on my little date with jansen!haha.had free tickets, decided to watch the proposal at Marina Square!7pm show when we had bought the tickets at 4.40pm.we had just about over 2 hours to kill. and we were on our way to KILL TIME! you know at marina square, how they had one whole level dedicated to those "star catcher" machines, where you plonk in your hard earned money to wish with all your might that you might get something out of the machines?how those machines cheat you of your life savings?the ones where each time you tried and failed, but it made you want to try once more because u think u can get it IF you try again???

well, jansen and myself fell victims to it.

we must have spent about $12 during that 1 hour of killing time, yea we also killed our pockets during that fateful 1 hour!=(

it was interesting looking at other people play the machines, knowing fully well that the claw is super duper weak and cannot hold the weight of the stuffed toy for long. but the fact that each time u feel u are closer to getting it, makes u wanto try playing it again!brilliant inventors of this game.seriously. there was this group of girls, who were at the same machine as we were, they must have spent about 20 bucks but managed to get 3 puny stuffed sesame street figurines!?!?!while jansen and myself spent 6 bucks and got 2!ok.we were lucky.haha.



the movie THE PROPOSAL was really good!i give it 4/5!=)

as usual, i have always loved Sandra Bullock, theres something about her attitude that makes me wana be like her. shes gorgeous, not the normal sweet lil thing, but gorgeous but tough lady. something which reminds me of me.hah.okok.not that im gorgeous. but i like to think of myself as tough. i was telling some of my friends the other day that i want to get a subaru or Mit car in future. i especially love the sports rim and the super high spoiler kind, with an additional spoiler in front.haha.i know its totally AH BENG, but i am definitely not an Ah lian! winfred and reg said my kind of car was ugly=(.

after watchin the proposal, i went on to meet vincent,reg,winfred for another movie!FINAL DESTINATION!reg was cool,she went ahead with this movie without knowing much about it. and yes, 3/4 of the movie was spent seeing her burying her head in her shirt!she kept asking me what happened which i refused to.i wanted to make her watch everything, esp the gory parts!haha.i rmb how one scene scared me that i jumped and that made reg and winfred beside me jump as well.it was hilarious.it was a movie with good effects, but lousy plot. i thought it was something different from the previous final destination movie 1,2,3.but it was totally the same. different cast,different scenes but same plot.sigh.disappointing.why couldnt they have titled the movie final destination 4!?!?!

and yes, after the movie, as usual, everything we walked past or saw, we got sensitive and began scaring each other that we were gona die. guess the movie had achieved in scaring the audience that "IT HAS COME" ( death, in this case i think!)

ok.got tons of work to do!finally, work is piling up.haha.not like it nvr was.but its the 4th week.time to mug.=(
