girls night out

it's always a fantastic feeling i get when meeting up with "Beams"

That's what we call ourselves.

B - Benghui
E - Esther
A - Amanda
M - Mel
S - Siew Ping

Yes there used to be 5 of us meeting all the time but we only had 3 present the last we've met up. oh and we even had a channel called "Beams" in MIRC last time! how cool was that! everyone obviously had an authority to give access too. lol

oh and Ping couldn't make it cos she's a busy busy lady who regulates Singapore. ;)

So proud of her, i am, seeing that she is doing that she has always been good at and no, i don't feel upset when she can't meet up with us cos she's got to do what she's got to do.

as for benghui, she's overseas and she's apparently back in sunny island today! too bad i cant meet up with esther and man to fetch her from the airport cos of my commitment in school but i'm pretty sure we'll meet up real soon for x'mas celebration, or probably just a meet up to see how's everyone getting along in life.

so i'll leave you readers out there with pics we took and i shall keep the memories of our sharing to myself. =)

presenting amanda!


yup, drama mama and did i mention? she was our prefect in school as well. someone who's out there to tell us the rights from wrongs and always keeping us up with the latest gossips.

nothing beats great food and friends.

sitting, waiting. wishing

one of the reasons why my week was bad, it all started with a mere lock out of the house incident, and it snow balled from there. =(

no, these pics were jus the starting of the day when everything was still perfect.
streams of pics with him
then we realised, his key couldn't get us into his home after our full full meal.

and the worst part was cos i wanted to feast on my chocolate tarts!!! =(


so when all was dull, waiting for the locksmith to come and rescue us, i decided to whip out the cammie and take pics that are visible around his place, i mean what else is there to do. =(


so when he came, it was EXPENSIVE!
i was $50 poorer cos sweetheart had only $20 in his pocket.

sigh, what a day.

story continues in the next entry of my unlucky week.

new song

hey peeps, i've changed the song in my blog's background cos i realized the previous didn't start automatically.

anyway it's breakdown by jack johnson, one of my fav. artist. =)

the lyrics are really meaningful, something about life, makes you pause and think about what's going on. enjoy.

have been having a terrible week so far, will explain in my next entry.

well, life is full of ups and downs, now is a pretty down chapter in my life, i'm sure the up will be here soon, looking forward to it, cos nothing else can make me worst off at this point in time.

a funfilled weekend

it seems like a great deal of person is very much sent to me. I officially took 2 hours to get ready just to go out. lol though my boo was home waiting for me, he was feeling utterly hungry and he called about 2 times within the hours and asked patiently when I'm gonna get him in a cab.

haha it might explain the "smile-less" him, haha, then again, he wasn't angry, he's jus stress with all the exams coming up and projects to be done before dateline. it was sweet of him to meet up with me though, before I met up with Hayden whom I've not met up for countless of months.


So after having lunch at Cafe Beviamo again with Boo, i met up with Hayden to get ourselves desserts. haha it's a full blown meal for me, from appetizers to main course to dessert! =)


Hayden had his cooler drink which he thought it wasn't nice though it looked deceivingly good, together with his tiramisu cake! =)

I had the ultimate chocolate cake with a steamer drink with tiny rose buds in it. it's... satisfying ;)

after a long time sitting at bakerzin, we headed down to alleybar to have a drink and catch up even more. =)


That's HAYDEN! =) oh and he ordered a champagne which is totally bitter, and i played safe by asking recommendations from the waitress. haha and mine's china blue!

sigh, hayden is very much into counting the months left on my calendar to when I'm about to turn 23. He was literally counting it with his fingers! he went "december, *thumb out*, january index finger*. "

!?!?!?

that's just mean! haha though i honestly think that i feel the same, no lesser energy or anything through the years, it's probably cos i'm still in my 20s~ haha but still right, it's a sensitive issue for girlssssss. sigh

anyway, yup! i got him a present that was meant to be for his birthday 2 months ago! =))

after having a delightful time with hayden, catching up and all, minus-ing the teasing about my upcoming birthday, haha =P i met up with sweetie again and this time we went to Emerald 5 Hill who coincidentally had an event going on. It's "A Good Laugh With Irene - A Bailey' Event" and girls have the privilage of free flow of baileys! Haha and i obviously tried all =P

As you can see, there are 3 types! All 1/3 filled though, haha the baileys original, bailey's chocolate and mint, baileys caramel and u can have it all only with the blue tag on your left hand! Oh and did i mention!? they have free flow of peanuts! haha it's so cool, though i would say that No. 5 bar is more of middle age people, i bet we were the youngest there! Nevertheless, we had fun cos Irene was hilarious!!! It was more of a ladies night with all the sexist jokes haha, not overly so though. Singlish jokes which i ended up having to translate it back for boo, it was fun though, really fun night. =)


So that's Saturday night for u ladies n gents. =)

Oh and i bumped into my SIM friend, hmm it seems like it's a popular spot for SIM people. The acid bar area. Then again, Singapore is so small, so where else can we be right?

in a blast

Weekends are always seen forth by everyone, i'm not included. I mean though i like being free from some commitments like having to go school but what i meant is the fact that I don't need the weekends to meet the sweetheart of mine.

it's been 4 years 7 months yet we never seem to get tired of each other. He seems to be able to crack me up at the weirdest joke he make. though it's true that I've gotten bored of some of which he continuously make but he always seem to have more up his sleeves!

then again, it's not that i love him jus 'cos of his jokes, it's the ways he shows that he adores me and the fact that it's simply him that i love. we are worlds apart individuals but we've learn to grow on each other, be it the good or bad.



mr happy pill of mine and i in cab.

haha to think about it, im sure there are many cab drivers talking about us "youngsters" now a days, like to take pictures so much. lol and not to mention, i noticed some cab drivers peeping at us when we take pics in cabs! haha some of the rest just don't bother to look, probably cos they are way too used to it!

this was taken when we had our irregular doze of afternoon tea at Fosters. and i swear the cheeze fries are sumptuously delicious!

the next day after, i've finally gotten my hands into that baking pot of mine to dote on people around me, me included. haha and it was gone in a split second! ok, i meant, 2-3 days. it's surprisingly good which led me to think of how much i wanna bake the next time round, with school friends included, you know, get them to do my share of homework and all. hmm bribe, yes, it's such a sinful act. ;)


a habit of mine since i've learnt to bake is to simply watch, look into the oven and "watch" my cookies grow, or any other pastry as a matter of fact. it's juz a comforting way for me, don't know why but i enjoy the time spent just endearing the moments the effort i've put in.


so here comes friday again, though i would have loved the company of huishan it's just FATED we couldn't. lol

anyway, she's a lucky soul, with her other counterparts, going to KL next week just to catch the tennis tournament! =(

yes, I WANT THEIR SIGNATURE! lol ;)

oh back to friday's activity! EAT! i mean, what else right, oh! got nails done after so long! and also shopped! =))

and last but not least, ichiban sushi for dinner and caught Beowulf after!

though i wouldn't say i'm a huge fan of such a genre of show, it was surprisingly interesting, oh and Angelina Jolie is in it too! lol

i SO did not expect that!

It was a role for her anyway, very much like scandalous role, yup, just like her character.
and now, christmas is around the corner again. it's a really pretty sight. just strolling around orchard road and taking in the beauty of how magnificent our little Singapore can be.
to end off , i'll let my strong healthy daisies bid you farewell, till the next entry peeps!

Shopping

Right! So much shopping so little time! =(

And SO MUCH updating but so little time!

So much assignments yet SO little time!

I'm officially a stressed person. =(

Tuesday, November 6, 2007

It's been one hell of a weekend. Some things that I don't normally do, i did. And cos every weekend doesn't seem to get any more interesting, boo and i decided to head down to Acid Bar for a drink on a Friday night, since we had time to kill anyway, plus their live band is pretty good. Acoustic version of songs, i like.

This was taken a night after and i was pretty sure i was still feeling high from the alcohol i had from the previous night. I'm not one who has high tolerance of alcohol so i try to stay within limits which is a glass. lol pathetic huh but oh well. =P

Max Brenners for us again haha cos we were there having our feast of Ichiban Sushi.
oh and this was a random pic i took in the library at Esplanade, they were having some indian play at that time.
Saturday was a pretty similar night out, but before that we went to my friend's wedding. It is one hell of an eye opening experience if you ask me. well cos it's an indian wedding and though i went for one indian wedding before, i did not stay long for the whole ceremony. but i did for this one and it's a pretty long ritual.
