Everything needs money

Not that I don't already know that, but the significant of money just raised alot when my wants and desires got even more than last time...

Top of my wanted list is none other than Invisalign... Which I tried to research and realised the probable most cheapest is around 5.5k sgd and it varies from person to person! *Faint~*

Not only that, one have to pay a deposit of half the price and pay off the rest by installments... How is my current salary capable of doing that? Sigh...

Next on my want list ( Mind you, this is only want, its not NEED, that is why I didn't work myself to the bones to get them ) is perhaps a motorbike license or maybe a new cage for my chinchillas which would probably set me back for another few hundreds of bucks. Follow by Razer's Black Widow Ultimate or Anansi ( One of Razer's latest Keyboard ) and perhaps new concealer and products that can remove dark eye rings/bags and black heads?

And I'm still in debt to my dad ( for the payment of my education fees and salary is being deducted by CPF monthly ) plus this and that, naturally I can't get those I want.

I do, however, realised that I am able to get anything that I want that is lesser than $100. But I need to save money also!!!

How to earn money enough for getting what you want? Sigh...

Yums!

Was craving for the most... unusual thing for me over the weekend. Tried to buy it on Saturday with Ray darling but it was sold out =(

But I managed to satisfy my other craving so it was not a total lost heh heh... This other craving was gyoza! We went to Ajisan to have dinner after finding nothing we want in the food court ( Causeway Point is under renovation, so most stalls are closed. We went to eat Pasta Mania there on Friday though, heh yummy~ ), more like after I made a wee bit of noise =x

Our conversation goes like this :
Ray dear : What do you want to eat?

Me: Gyoza!

Ray dear: Other than that?

Me: Erm... Gyoza?

Ray dear ( getting abit frustrated ) : There's no gyoza here, what else you want?

Me: Nothing I want...

Ray dear ( dragging me out of food court ) : Kk, we try other places.

Me ( Smilling brilliantly at darling ) : Yea~!

Yea, I am like a little kid =x But we managed to get what we want though when we arrived its already like 9.40pm and they closing at 10pm. I pretty much gobbled down my food and poor darling was drinking water cos his ramen was too spicy...

On Sunday I went to pray my ancestors before meeting up darling at North Point. We had Subway ( I soooooo love Subway meal!!! Bacons with cucumbers and little bit of lettuce and Honey Mustard!! *DROOLS~* ) before we walked around and ran to the next building despite it was raining, to Comics Connection.

Ray wanted to get a game call "Lost World 2". I had seen the trailer before and the graphics are pretty awesome. But its about $50 plus and dear don't know if any of his friends is going to play so keeping it on hold first.

After that he said next time he wanted to eat at "Wendy's". I'd like to try too, it smells good but I was full from Subway =x Ran through the rain again and back at North Point again to walk around.

Then... we walked past Bakerzin and Ray dear asked if I want to satisfy the craving I had before!
I was looking around and saw it almost instantly! Strawberry shortcake~! Bought 3 pieces ( no, I am not that greedy ), 1 for my mom, 1 for my brother and 1 for me and Ray~

Photobucket

Was taking this picture while the TV Channel 5 was showing "I am legend" =.=" I was terrified and pretended to be busy taking photo.

Photobucket

A little sour for my taste plus I never like creamy stuff ( that's why I said unusual craving ), but its good. I had like 2 bites and gave the rest to my darling who immersely enjoying having the whole cake to himself.

Slightly before that, I was telling my brother, Ken, that I have gotten him a cake. He was grumbling about how he's on diet and such till I hushed him and said "Take a look first before you say anything else and if you don't want, I will give it to Ray."

So when I opened the fridge and Ken saw "Bakerzin" across the box, well, his reply was "Give me! I want!!" At $6.50 per piece, I doubt he'd reject and Bakerzin's bakery stuff been relatively delicious, so I know he would never reject it haha... I am such a devilish sister, breaking my brother's diet~

Ah... Another random photo I took while waiting for the MRT.

Photobucket

The side of the car was badly dented =x Wondering what had happened to it?

Random post~

Woah... Hazy day again today... The PSI raised up to 72 now... Getting more and more annoying to stay long time outside, inhaling all these polluted air and cos of the haze trapping in all the heat, its getting unbearably warm too...

That aside, today I learnt I ought to pay more attention to things going on in my company!

Cos... This afternoon I was having lunch with my usual lunch colleagues and someone new joined us. He sat beside me and chatting and laughing with the rest of us. Seems normal to me... Till after lunch, I saw 4 of my lunch colleagues gathered and chatting ( which they don't normally do ) after I went to fill my water bottle.

"So... What's the guy's name? I didn't ask him." I asked casually.

"His name is Mario." Came the reply. I wondered why the name sound so familiar when another colleague piped "It's our big boss, he's replacing the old boss."

=.="

LOL!!! I had my boss sitting beside me the whole time THROUGHOUT the lunch and having a nice conversation and never once I thought it was my boss???!!! =x Perhaps its better this way, or else I might have freaked out...

What can I say... Ignorance is bliss and so is not talking about work stuff. Thankfully we were talking about haze and how different Singapore and other countries are rather than work.

Long overdue supper~

Last Friday went to 888 Plaza for a late supper with... my dear =p ( No surprise there~)

Naturally we always craved for the same things when we are there... That's BBQ stingray!!!

But the first dish that came was not stingray but la la.

Photobucket

Looks harmlessly innocent indeed till...

Photobucket

What's that?

Photobucket

O.o close up view... ( yea my handphone camera sux )

Photobucket

Lol! There's more??!!!

After digging through the whole plate, there's like more than 20 of these baby crabs. *~ Shivers ~*

Then Ray started explaining why he prefers clams to la la as la la are basically carnivores and clams only eat sand etc etc. For a person who don't like shell food, you can't blame me for not knowing this =x

But I did tried the la la though my distaste for them still didn't change... not much anyway.

Photobucket

My yummilicious stingray~!

Soft and juicy meat with a touch of lime juice and spicy chilli to match with soft ( not too soft ) white rice~ *~ Drools ~*

My mouth's watering again and I just had lunch =x I am such a glutton...

Hey... I just love good food!!! Yea yea I am a picky eater but the food that I picked to eat are delicious! To me at least =p

Had a nice glass of Ice lemon tea ( homemade one ) and my dear had some lime juice I think.

Throughout the supper I was watching and helping him picking out the baby crabs... Ah well... At least I learn something new on that day~

New free toy mouse finally arrived!!!

After waiting with bated breath ( no I do not mean bad breath ), 2-3 complain emails and lots of frustrations and weeks ( Darling Ray got his webcam like 15 days, mine? Try 1 month plus minus a few days... ) of waiting.

Just when my temper was reaching my max, my phone finally rang yesterday ( from the sender ).

It was around 3.30pm and I was busy at work when I saw a withheld phone call. Usually I might just left it unanswered, but I picked it up cos it was sounding increasingly noisy in the lab.

"Hello?" I answered with a little hint of irritation as one of the senior staff adjusting the board that he was teaching me on how to get it done before the interruption.

"Hi, is this Audrey?" some unknown guy inquired, sounding a little bit nervous, perhaps sensing my bad mood mounting.

"Yes, I am Audrey. May I know who am I speaking to?"

"Oh hi, I am from cubizone ( I definately perked up at the sound of that and listen more attentively ) about your email on the mouse and was wondering if you are at home this evening around 7pm to 10pm so I can deliver it to you."

"Hmm, yea, I will be home by then." Even if I am not free, I would still cancel anything for it!!!

But things doesn't stop there, I went home only to receive a sms from my brother ( after trying to phone my mom twice ) to realise there's no dinner!!! And since I have to wait for the mouse, I can't leave to buy food for dinner sob...

Thankfully I have the sweetest and most adorable darling in the world!!! My dear offered to go buy something for me to eat so I can wait at home for the mouse to arrive ♥♥♥♥ Isn't he the best darling ever???!!! ( I don't care if anyone say no, I still think that's awfully sweet of him considering the fact that he's tired from work as well )

So I waited... and waited... and waited somemore... Dear arrived with dinner and its near 10pm and still no reply and I even double checked to see if my phone was spoilt.

After 10pm, both dear and me gave up waiting and started gaming instead.

But around 10.15pm-10.20pm, I heard my doorbell rang very softly ( cos I was in my room ).

I sprang from my bed like a cat that smell a fished and ran towards the front door, only to see my mom looking through the peekhole to see who was it.

I told her its for me and opened the door.

Was extremely gleeful when I saw the package ( sorry~ but I just didn't bother to see the sender's face, the package got my full attention ). Signed the necessary paperwork, took my package and I ran back to my room muhahaha...

Half bouncing on my bed ( Ray looked at me with an amused expression ), I started... taking photo of the package!!! =p Bet everyone thought I was ripping the package apart.

Photobucket

Lo and behold~! The little package that kept me waiting for the past few weeks!!! By the way, I got this for free, never knew how to use the RP points system in the cubibonus of the Perfect World game so I accumulated lots of points and Ray helped me traded the points for this mousey.

Photobucket

Trying to tear apart when I saw this "Please use before the expiration date printed on the outer packaging". I kept on laughing, showing to my dear and exclaimed "Lol!!! Mouse will expire! I go show Ken ( my brother )."

Ken replied was "Lol... Mouse expired then gg liao."

Photobucket

After struggling with the package ( Ray said "No one open such package like you do. If they can be ripped apart so easily, anyone would have gotten it. Silly dear, open with scissors." ) I finally cut it open with a small but sharp pair of scissors ( don't annoy me, I might snip you with it wahahaha ).

Felt inside the package and took this out first. My letter from Cubizone, congratulating me on getting the mouse. Heh... just wait abit more before I show you mousey~

Photobucket

Tadah~! My Razer Death Adder!!! In my favourite colors too~~!!!

Photobucket

Love the box. Its pretty~~~ Kept on playing with it... Ray semi watching me while playing MFO. He told me to take a few more pictures with it before he helped me set it up.

Photobucket

So I took a few more~ Decorated it and the contents all over my bed~

Photobucket

Close up view with its two buttons on the side~ Heehee...

While Ray went back to play MFO, I was literally looking at everything including the warranty which congratulated me and said I am "on the road of no return" or somewhere along that line and that I am officially welcomed to razer world etc. *~ Threw that aside ~*

After that while Ray was fixing the mousey to his desktop, I went through the instruction manual saying about installing this and that and Ray said he would do it ( but I don't think he did ) though he did exclaimed that its wayyyy~ sensitive than the logitech mouse.

I kept the logitech mouse in the box and tried the Death Adder. The pointer slide to the other side of the screen at my lightest touch o.O I am definately impressed. Ray had to adjust the sensitivity of the mouse or else the pointer is going to fly all over.

Dear went on explaining how great razer products are, its capabilities of adapting to all kinds of computers like Mac or Windows without a problem, whereas logitech mouse is not compatible with Mac. Me, being a gadgets idiot, of cos I do not know all these beforehand though I knew some gadgets are not compatible with others. But hearing razer is able to use universally, that is the first time.

While playing with the mouse, pushing it here and there on the mousepad ( I realised it can't work on the table top ) and watching the symbol of razer lights up everytime I touched it ( Ray told me that so I was trying it out like a kid with a new toy ), dear suddenly asked "Darl, you going to post those pictures in FB right?"

I looked at him for awhile and said "Yea, why?"

"Tagged me in ok?"

"Hmm ok! I do it now!"

"But don't tag me in the useless ones! Like that one!!!" he pointed at the package, heh heh heh...

He's smart alright, cos I was "considering" tagging him in EVERY photo =p Ah well, after so many years, I bet he knew my tricks up my sleeves already. Time to find new tricks!

This is a well worth wait though, cos I finally got a pretty mouse to match my dear's new computer ( kinda new anyway =p ). Now all that I want is Razer's Black Widow Ultimate!!!

But darling wants a Razer's Mantis ( think they changed the name ) mousepad for this Death Adder. Oh well, that, we will see how hee~

Jia Wei's birthday celebration

Well, due to me being overwhealmed by lots of things to write, I am getting the reversed effect of writer's block! But since I have so much to write, I ended up with "don't know what to write" symptom.

Thus, writing something that comes to my mind first, which is Jia Wei's birthday celebration over the weekend ( His actual birthday was on last Thursday, but I did write in his facebook wall and smsed him happy birthday! Don't say I am a heartless friend wor~! )

I remembered lazing around in bed and getting extremely drowsy and lazy to move last Saturday.

Occasionally I turned over to look at my dear playing game and then return to my semi-drowsy state. Then Jia Wei sent an sms around 12pm plus as a reminder, saying something about people heading there at 1pm ( I was horrified to think that I misread the time and double checked with the sms he sent about a week ago and was sighing with relief when it said the celebration starts at 6pm =.=" ) and were welcomed to play the PS3, or for those lan crazed people, there's enough laptops and desktops for Starcraft 2 etc or maybe enjoy watching movies, tv etc.

I pondered a few days before I decided that I want to give him macarons as birthday present. Practical plus delicious. Of cos, my naughty darling Ray kept on telling others I want to give Jia Wei macaroni =.="

The arguement goes like this:
Me : It's MACARONS!!!
Ray : Ni~

=.="""

But eventually we finally got off our lazy bums to start to head to Yishun to get the macarons from Bakerzin ( Karen called and wanted to share the birthday gift ).

My heart skipped abit when I couldn't see any macarons when we reached there. Luckily I have my darling Ray with me. His sharp eyes managed to locate the macarons packed in pretty boxes. There's about 7 macarons in each box. Total cost about $7.50 each. Contemplated abit and decided to get about 4 boxes since we had like 4 people sharing the gift. Turns out that as I am a member, I get discounts Photobucket

Food for the day~ Heh... The only thing the guys ( Ray, Ivan and Jia Wei's bro, Xin Yu, and Xin yi's friend ) were complaining was that instead of spicy, the whole soup was salty. Jia Wei dumped the whole content of the packets of chilli oil, supposingly soup base etc into the soup. Ying saved the day as usual, but gave the guys a scare when she wanted to put chilli padi in.

Ray was chatting with Ivan and Ying gave me a can of cold Ice Lemon Tea ( specially for me hahaha cos she hidden that can somewhere in the fridge ). Someone said there's no birthday cake and Ying replied she baked one on his actual birthday so no more for him that day.

After that Tian Zun, Kai Sheng, Karen, Rianto, Sophia and Tian Hui arrived. By then I was already watching Ray "fighting" using a light saber controller with one of the other guys.

Basically we just chit chatted ( at one point I "complained" that Ray said I am fat and the others called Ray to come out of kitchen and said he insulted the rest of them with just that sentence, to which he replied,"She blocked me when I playing games!" which leads to topics like "its not that she's fat but he don't have the money to buy bigger screen" and "If you don't let a guy play games, there isn't much for him to do but to drink, gamble, womanizing etc" ) , played games while waiting for the round 3 of steamboat to finish eating. Ying made red tea for me, but somehow I find the smell though strong, but the tea was either too bland or too strong ( if left for long ).

Some people left around this time, like Sophia, Kai Sheng etc. The macarons, though most said was sweet, but all was gone before I can take pictures of them =x Then someone brought raw salmon and salmon sushi, but there were still left overs.

Then...there was a surprised! One of the guys headed out and bought...

Photobucket

Cake!

I am not a big fan of cake though. Hate the cream taste ( not cos it might make me fat, not that it will, but that I just hate the taste ).

Jia Wei said put 1 candle was enough but I replied "Put 100."

He turned to me and said he might like to try that, that is, if he lived till that age. =p

After the cutting and eating of cake, Karen went back watching TV, while the rest of us head in the room to play games ( wahahaha, managed to trash Tian Zun in PS3 ping pong, but was trashed by Tian Hui in Archery sob~ ). Poor Ray accidently got hit by Ying when she was playing the Ping Pong.

But the funniest part was when she was playing with Jia Wei and leading like 10 to 6 or something and she said out loud "If I lose this game, you are going to sleep on the floor tonight."
The rest of us burst out laughing. Naturally Ying won =p

Wasn't long before we noticed the time and Karen, Rianto, Tian Hui, Ray and me went chasing the bus, literally. Its really is once in a while of gathering and noticed how everyone changed. But its nice to see them all together again, really glad I went when I did~

Heh...Might post next post up soon, too much to write!

Strange dream

I had a dream just the day before and till now, I can't get the dream out of my mind.

In my dream, I was at a shop, more like the front of a clothes shop, and fell in love with an outfit.

Like all dreams, things don't seem practical.

"So its just another outfit/dress, what else is new?" One might asked.

That's the problem, its not just any outfit that you can wear at anytime, anywhere, like in the middle of the afternoon in Orchard Road ( not unless you want the attention or if Orchard Road is holding Cosplay event ).

Curious? Let me elaborate on it.

For some reasons unknown, I just felt strongly that I must have it. Weird since I don't have such urge for any kind of outfit, usually I would ponder for at least a few days to weeks before I decide I want it or not.

It's a kind of tight fitting dress with a bunny tail, gloves, complete with a set of bunny ears hairband and pretty heels. I said dress, not swimsuit, so you can take your normal fantasy of bunny ladies in suit out of mind.

In the dream its navy blue in color but when I finally wake up, I decided perhaps white or black will look nicer ( since when do you see a navy blue bunny anyway? ).

I started drawing the outfit, but since I stinks at art big time, it doesn't look so good. Perhaps one day, I might actually go buy some chiffon, lace, fur, black cloth and some metals ( yea its gonna be a huge work, provided I know how to sew it as its pretty difficult to get the image from my mind to reality ) and who knows, maybe parade it in front of my dear haha.

I am considering making the bunny tail removable so I can remove it and wear that outfit in the street =p

Since I have the bunny ears already, I can concentrate on the rest =p

"Food-full" entry~

As the title had suggested, this is an entry that's going to be all on food and quite a few pictures~ Another long blog to be =x

On Saturday, while lazing in my room and semi dozing off to sleep while my dear was playing MFO beside me, he suddenly turned around and said "Dear, we are meeting Bernard for dinner."

I mumbled something about ok, thinking its another usual outing to Cathy or something, wasn't till we headed for late lunch ( around 2pm for some fried chicken in the food court near my house ) that he said we would be heading elsewhere, not our usual hunt.

Turns out we were to go to meet Max, Danielle and Bernard at... Chilis! It's located at Tanglin's Mall and we walked from Orchard MRT to Tanglin ( talked about exercise before dinner =.=" ).

When we got there, there's a slight queue and we were told to wait for 40 minutes as we did not made any prior reservation. Was fine for me due to the late lunch and I wasn't particularly hungry ( It's near 7pm or 7.30pm ).

Walked around Tanglin Mall ( my dear was telling a joke to Bernard and Max about a hero in DOTA called witch doctor or something, kept on saying "Tanglin Mall!" or sounds like it anyway, and added that the hero is asking them to come here =p ) and saw plenty of shops selling Halloween stuff and even a magic shop at one of the higher floors but we only went down to basement, so I did not get to see what was sold =x

We headed to the watch shop ( wasn't too fascinated except for a compass watch which I have no idea how to read ) and then to the supermarket to see if there's anything nice. Saw jars of truffle infused honey, honeycomb ( yea, its real ) and jars of different varities of caviar. Not a typical supermarket =x

And the main difference was, there's lots of masks, fake plastic cauldrons and decorations all for Halloween, so this concludes... It's a place mainly cater for westerners.

I remember heading to cocoa tree or something and dear said he wanna buy a bar of chocolate to smack me with, I told him I would purchased the most expensive item, which seems to be the basket full of chocolates and trashed him with that.

By the time we headed back to Chilis... The queue became freaking long!!! It snaked around the corner and I swear it was twice as long as before. Bernard headed to the waiter and immediately we were lead to our seats, much to the annoyance of those in queue =p ( Do not get mad at me, make reservation first or go there first~ )

Photobucket

First picture I took. I was sitting like way on the left side so...

Photobucket

I asked Ray dear to take but he said he couldn't and gotten Bernard/Max to do it instead. Thanks guys!

We were looking through the menu ( the first page was all on magaritas!!! )and Max recommanded back ribs, I ain't crazy over back ribs ( the last I had was at Cafe Cartel and it's huge and after sometime I just don't want to eat it cos got sick of the taste ) but decided to share a full baby back ( my dear ordered Classic whereas I wanted Honey BBQ for my half rib ) with coleslaw and Mashed Potato with Black Pepper Gravy. As usual, I ordered tea whereas the rest ordered 2 Mango Iced Tea and BlackBerry Iced Tea and plain water for the lady.

The next one kinda irritated me a bit.

Photobucket

I was looking at the utensils ( I always "examine" the utensils ) and was annoyed that the knife looked so dirty. Then I looked around and noticed everyone's utensils were the same ( They even forgot to give my dear his fork! ). I told Danielle, "I am sooooo gonna post this up on the blog." Tried cleaning it with tissue but to no avail. Gave up and stare daggers at the knife.

Thankfully for the waiter ( I was ready to have evil thoughts forming in my head ), the drinks were brought to distract me a little. ( Speaking of distractions, I don't know why but the whole time while we were there, there's at least 3 times where people started clapping loudly and singing Happy Birthday song. So many people having birthday on the same day, celebrating at the same place??? Ultimate noisy!!! Add a kid constant yelling... Urgh... )

Photobucket

My dear was holding his straw ( still with the wrapper on ) above his drink. He said if he took the wrapper off, the straw won't show up in the picture =x He took a sip and started stirring round and round before taking another sip and exclaimed that the drink taste like ribena ( he had the blackberry ).

Meanwhile, Max and Danielle tried the mango drink and made a face. Ray tasted and said "You didn't stir it!" and the drink seemed to taste better ( syrup at the bottom I think )and they decided to trick Bernard ( he went to shop at a CD shop ) into drinking it without stirring. )

Photobucket

This is the blackberry drink, well stirred. I am not crazy about the drinks but its freeflow~ and for $5.50 only. So was my tea.

Photobucket

I was looking at the spoon and Danielle said "Why does it look like a soup spoon?" and I was wondering the same thing =x Ray soon left to find Bernard and our first dish arrived wahahaha...

Photobucket

Cheese fries~! Max was busy playing a game with the handphone and I was taking this picture and said "Let's finish this and show Bernard and Ray the picture when they come back~" Danielle and Max just laughed =x

This dish was one of the better ones but would be better if the cheese was more gooey ( we waited for the two to be back to start eating so by then the cheese already hardened ). It's served with strips/bits of bacons and slices of jalapeno on top and mayonnaise at the side. Quite delicious, yummy!

Photobucket

A more close up view of it ( was worried the picture may be blurred by the hot steam/mist floating out of the dish ).

Soon the other two guys came back and yea, Bernard was tricked into drinking the mango drink unstirred heehee...

Photobucket

Our Classic and Honey BBQ baby back ribs. I liked the Honey BBQ as it had a tinge of sweet taste to it, but the Classic tasted very bland. Like some kind of corn pork rib soup my mom cooked but left in the pot for a long time that it turn almost tasteless.

Photobucket

Danielle's and Max's baby rib. Honey BBQ and some other flavor with Loaded Mashed Potato. I much prefer the Mashed Potato with Black Pepper Gravy as its much smoother and more savory in taste ( no wonder Bernard's been helping himself to it =p )

Photobucket

Bernard's Mushroom Beef Farjita. Danielle commented it was too salty and judging from the portions that Bernard did not finish... He must have not like it as well...

Photobucket

Taking the back of the chair. A little chilli design. Complaining abit. We had to ask 3 different waiters to serve our final dessert and refill our drinks ( all of our drinks were under the freeflow ). Perhaps our location was way at the corner but it gave no excuse to have us keep on waiting right? And it seemed as though they had forgotten our order and that made me a little irritated.

Was looking around and noticed a wall full of pictures. Then I told Ray dear "Darling, I didn't know you have a picture here."

"Where?" He looked around.

"There." I pointed at a picture with a monkey wearing a white cowboy hat.

Heeheehee... Naturally he semi tickle me for that and claimed that was Bernard not him.

Finally our dessert arrived.

Photobucket

O.o wow.

Photobucket

Comparing it to the normal bottle of Maggie Chilli.

Photobucket

Comparing it to the normal mug.

IT'S HUGE! And ultra sweet. The other table people kept on looking at our Molten Warm Chocolate Cake. The vanilla ice cream with harden chocolate sauce on it, with the yummy spongy chocolate cake and when cut open the cake, warm chocolate sauce came flowing out!

Ultimate sore throat dish =p First I took a bite of the cake. Yummy, reminds me of a chocolate volcano. Then when Ray hon cut open the sauce came oozing out. I had to eat it ( by it I mean the cake and the molten sauce ) with vanilla to counter the overbearing sweetness of the chocolate.

Then I saw something more stunning. Apparently the people at the other table ordered like 5-6 of this dish. Wahahaha, I doubt they can finish it! No wonder they kept on staring. We had 5 people sharing this one dish.

The total bill came up to around $163.40. About $33 per person, which include cheese fries, huge ribs, refillable drinks ( $5.50 each, I refilled twice and the guys refilled 3 thrice ) and the huge Molten Warm Chocolate Cake ( $15 ). Of course there's the service tax and so on but don't ask me how much for I was not the one looking at the receipt...

Not really strongly recommanding this place. Just another place for munching. It had this television with sports channel on, the front is abit bar like but the behind is pretty much like any other restaurant. The spaces are pretty small so one have to try to move about in care or else you might just bump into someone else chair~~~

Yea~ 3 new manga out~

Been waiting for a long~~~~~~ time for them! * Sob, sadly this week don't have Fairy Tail Episode 49...*

I only buy Kaichou wa Maid sama first as I want to slowly savour the stories~!

Photobucket

I love this manga alot! Chasing both the anime ( the anime has finished already though I am still watching like episode 6 or 7 ) and manga ( still publishing and getting more interesting heehee ).

The other two manga that I have yet bought is "Otoman" and "Ouran High School Host Club" aka "樱兰高校男公关不部". Those are nice for leisure reading ( especially for the ladies, I doubt guys might be interested ).

Can't help but reminded me of how I used to wish for a guy that's like either the lead character or 2nd lead anyway. Cos they are always so cool, handsome or extremely cute and always have some extrodinary talents ( like ultra strong or good in fights/academic/singing etc etc and very very sweet/loving/gentle/observant to the girl they love.)

I always think of that as a dream, but I recently I realised I have gotten the person I had been longing for heh...

Ray's definately strong ( but not the monstrous kind of strong ), I won't say I encourage him to fight but he's combat fit, lazy to study and yet always managed to pass his exams with ease (?), love the way he sings especially Jay Chou's songs, never fails to amaze me how fast he is at adapting to different games almost immediately and scoring high points at that, he's definately sweet, loving and very observant to me and I find him very adorable when asleep and good looking enough to take my breath away.

And the things we been through... Are nothing less than dramatic either =.=" Makes me wonder if this is like a manga but in real life action. We have our fair share of ups and downs and cos of our personalities, that often leads to extreme results...

Right now he's trying to get me to be more decisive! =x I should probably quote this for him...

"The Twins' ability to see both sides of an issue can make it difficult for them to make decisions, not because they want to be sure they select the best option, but because they want every option. Watching a Gemini trying to make a decision can prove exhausting."

Hmm... why are the both of us so similiar and so different???!!! He's desicive and I am not. He's okay with all kinds of food and I am extremely picky. Opposite attracts???

But yea I always laugh at our zodiac for I often teased him that whenever we are quarreling, there's 4 people quarreling instead of 2.

Time for lunch~ *Runs~*

Random happy post on my hair =p

Hee... Feeling a little bit happy!

Just now after lunch I noticed that my hair was extremely messy and curly ='(

I love straight hair more than anything but having long hair equals to during meal time, especially in windy area, if one does not tie up the hair, you might be eating your hair... And cos of my work, tied up hair allows easier movement and thus, the results of often tied up hair = curls/bends appear in my otherwise straight hair.

So I took my comb and splashed some water on it and spent a little time trying to straighten out my poor locks. Was not satisfied but I got to go back to work soon.

So about an hour or more after, I went to the Ladies again and saw our pretty secretary, Daphne, washing her hands. She looked at me and said "Did you went for rebonding or something? Your hair seems straighter!"

Naturally I felt delighted and my first reaction was to look at my reflection in the mirror. Though I still feel my hair is pretty much curly, but hey, its nice to hear from others that its straight, and from a pretty lady at that!

After she left, I went on trying to tug and straightened my hair again =p

Now, the other thing that bothers me are my fingers. They are always prunish and I think its because my body doesn't absorb water well. Whenever they pruned up, I hate touching anything with them, gave me a feeling like dried lips. In such cases, I have to apply some moisturising cream or something. Didn't find any effective ones yet though... If anyone have recommandation, do let me know ^.^

Seen different doctors but none can cure/prescribe anything for my fingers and they always blames it on things like "You touched water too often ( Yea I love handling electronics things at my work place with wet/damp hands *Pouring on the sarcasm* )" or things like "I am sure it will go that in a few days/weeks ( I'm still having this problem for years!)"

Can't stand retarded people ( can totally list off plenty ) and more often than not, I'd be chewing their heads off ( chomp chomp chomp ) before they did any serious damage to me. With a couple that's exception. Let them off for some people's sake. But funny thing is, such intellectual deprived things ( I would not even consider them human, for with human, you still can reason with them ), they would annoy the hell out of you even if you ignore them. Let them try a few more times and I will show them why I don't like such things to mess with me. No amount of pleads or favor or whatsoever will save them from my fury.

Hee~ But thoughts of my darling will keep me happy all day~ Yea, I change my mood fast, so? I am fickle minded, picky, and very petty ( no, I did not mis-spell anything and I don't think I am pretty ). Once someone angered me, its Operation Vengence in progress.

Hey, I am from the Zodiac "The Twins", of cos my moods/personalities varies alot heh heh... That's why I say my darling is the greatest for he not only puts up with my cranky moods, able to turn me from a roaring tigress into a harmless kitten, he also gives me fantastic ideas as to how to torment the ones that angers me!!! How awesome is that? Heehee... Sigh... I have a half angel half devil guy for a darling~ *Love Ray lots!*

Don't get me wrong, I am still a fully devilish person, no angelic side, heh heh heh~

Games! And of cos, my darling Ray~

Heh... Thought I'd post a bit more on the games but... First thing first!

For all gamers lovers out there!!! I am a fellow gamer lover as well and there's nothing more annoying than to play a game and having your keys jammed and so on. I soon came to realise the "accessories" of the games ( keyboards, mouses, sound system, etc etc ) is pretty important.

And currently ( I don't deny my deep attraction/love for this particular brand ) Razer is giving away prizes!!! This is done in celebration of Razer's 133, 337 fans on Facebook. So you guys have till 25th October, 2010 to register!

http://l33t.razerzone.com/index.php?user_dtl=82250ee1b17678c159deb817f8252880

Man! I will love to get my hands on those items! <3
Photobucket

Isn't it sweet? But yea its funny having two gals laying on the floor in the middle of the street. The white little fairy marks as Holy and the orangey pink one marks as Hell. Naturally the hell fairy belongs to me.

These babies are still in the first form, which is obtainable at level 89 where you have to choose to go to heaven or hell.

At level 99 after you done the cultivation quest, the fairy will change again ( the white mosquito looking fairy turns into slightly yellow flying gal while the orangey pink pumpkin head fairy will turn into a red devil head with mermaid's tail fairy ). The last fairy is obtainable after you finish the level 100 quest ( Yellowish fairy turns into a pretty bright pale blue fairy whereas the red devil/mermaid will turn into a deep shiny purple long skirt beauty).

Of cos, this picture was taken long time ago, I really don't recall when but I know its before my fairy change color haha...

Here's another picture of my dear and me :



Photobucket


Yes! I married a beast! Ahahaha... But he can turns into a cute fluffy white tiger and whenever you hoist/cuddle a transformed white tiger and click on "Intimate", it will seems as if the lady is stroking the white tiger's head and the tiger will lift its head back like a kitty as if it enjoys it! So adorable!!!

But my darling is pretty adorable in real life too, if he wants to be =p But most of the time when he made me goes "Aww... so cute/adorable" it bodes nothing well... Keyword : Most of the time. As such times usually it meant "Ain't I cute enough for you to help me do my daily quests for me~? Please~?"

I am a sucker for cuteness >.<""" Though my defination of cute for human is in lots of catagory. Yet so far, none of my friends think Ray is otherwise ( as in not cute ) heehee. A pretty charming guy at that. Eloquent and with an attitude to match. Though we are from the same horoscope, our similarities end at speech and horoscope. I do not find myself attractive enough nor have a sweet demure and gentle personality. If anything, I would have thought I am more boyish than my brother! =p

Bleah, but I do feel blissful to have a pretty sweet loving darling, though evil at time for he's always constantly teasing I am fat ( if you consider someone who's over 160 in height and weight only like 48kg or lesser fat ), and that I am extremely picky ( no arguements there, but if I am not picky, I won't have choosen him already right???!!! Heehee... ) and so on and so fore.

Despite such, I love him deeply for he cares alot and shows it in his own ways such as he knew I am afraid of lightning/thunder and would use his own ways to make sure I do not notice of them, I hate roaches and will scare them away for me and he's considerate and take note of the small details that I never notice before!

I remembered once we walked passed some store and something caught my fancy and he said "You like that alot right?" I was surprised cos I didn't say anything and there's lots of things inside the store. He said its cos of my certain reaction to the things I like that he made him sure what it was. And I love him for who he is as well. Not because he promised me anything nor because of the gifts he gave. But its because from the way he knew about me that make me realise, he's noticing me alright and without me telling, he knew what I like and dislike.

Haha, I have changed alot throughout the past few year we been together, mainly in my choice of food and attitude to certain stuff. Like things I don't eat/drink before, mash potato, green tea, lettuce, cucumbers, tomato, prawns, crabs, etc etc I am starting to take in bit by bit. Things I don't even want to taste before and I did such as La La, sotong, bamboo clam, kang kong etc etc at least I can said I have tasted these within these recent years.

No longer am I over suspicious or jealous and I can take and let go things a little bit more easier and graceful. Though my bad temper to others is still as terrible as before. So do NOT test my patience if you are not my darling Ray. I do not guarantee a good tolerance for that.

There's only a handful of people that I will not flare up upon such as Ying ( naturally, she's more scary than me =p Besides we are best friends of almost 20 years!!! ) and Lyviya ( how can I ever get mad at such a sweetie? She's gentle and caring and kind and everything I am not! ).

Lol... Once again another long blog, have fun everyone stay happy~

P.S. Staying happy for the whole day is the hardest thing to do ( Don't tell me you are smiling/laughing for every second in 24 hours. I'd love to see someone achieve that and yes, even if they are sleeping. And smiling from your heart, fake smile is not counted. )

P.P.S. So so so so sorry!!!!! For those who tried to enter the Razer and didn't manage to I sincerely apologise for my ultra blurness >.< regularly =".=">my fault!!!

Sincerely apologising to everyone who tried *Sob...*

Fabulous Food~!

*~ Warning, this is going to be a long post! ~*
Hmm... But since when has my post been short? Ignore heehee~

Digressing abit first, I HATE MY WORKPLACE COMPUTER! Or at least the stupid position of the way the CPU was placed. Since last week that I was asked to move my place, I had been accidently knocking the power cable of the CPU and yup, you guessed it. Always cleans out the things I was working on. And while I was typing up a storm on this entry just now, BOOM, hitted the stupid cable again, and POOF! There goes my long entry =.=" This is so freaking annoying.

It's as if I can't do anything without saving them every few mintues. Love Microsoft as it always managed to help me recover my unsaved files. I can't imagine spending another few good hours on my work again just because of a idiotic power cable's fault. I had just rearranged the CPU so I supposed I won't be able to have any of such problem again, I think...

ANYWAY~ I had a simply delightful evening last night hee... ( No, don't stray your thoughts, its evening not midnight ) Nothing beats having a delicious meal with my best friend Ying Ying, her bf, Jia Wei and my darling Ray ( naturally hee~ ).

That was definately one of the most enjoyable meal I ever had ( Woe to whoever that do not like spicy food, that would be hellish for them!!! Muahahahahha! ) and kept on drooling whenever I think back of it *~ Drools ~ * ( ^-,^)

It all started when Ying called me around 2pm yeseterday, when I was trying to get Ray to go out and eat ( he's glued to the computer ). She said Jia Wei wanted to eat the Pork Knuckle aka PK that Ray had introduced sometime back at Farmart ( Ironically enough, it was the one dish we did not eat yesterday ). I wasn't keen on eating that as I recalled the past 2-3 occasions that I ate that, I was feeling quite quesy and nauseous for the layers of fats on it was far too much to my liking... But I was delighted at having the chance to eat with my best friend so we arranged to meet at 6pm ( ended up meeting at 7pm plus instead ).

We waited for sometime for the 50 cents per person shuttle bus at the bus stop opposite Lot 1 ( opposite the Guardian store at the mrt station to be more precise ). It was extremely hot and perspiration were covering Ying and me from head to toe... Jia Wei was concentrating on his PSP while Ray had a conversation with us gals.

After a long wait ( The shuttle bus comes only once every hour on Sunday & Public Holidays, not too sure about Saturday and we were waiting for the 7pm bus ), the shuttle bus finally arrived and we simmered ourselves in the cooling comfort of air con for the time being.

Upon arriving at Farmart, we were looking around and I immediately started looking for the delicious aroma of Stingray. Ying said she's on diet and don't want to eat PK, I don't fancy it either and apparently Ray's not in mood as well. So it was decided, Barbeque food for the day!!!

I guarded a table ( Yea I know, I am a typical Singaporean~ bleah =p ) while the rest went to order food. They ordered Barbeque Stingray, Barbeque sotong, Lala, Kang Kong, Barbeque Chicken wings, Black Pepper Cray Fish and 4 plates of rice ( Stingray, sotong and lala were wrapped in aluminium foil ). We also ordered 2 Lime Juices ( for Ying and Ray ) and 2 Coke ( for Jia Wei and me ) and the dishes were so spicy that we had to order another 2 Ice Lemon Tea ( 1 each for the couples, Ray finished up my Coke =x ).

*~ Barbeque Stingray ~*

It's the first dish to arrive. I wasn't expecting much of it since I do have a very picky palate. But when I caught a whiff of the delectable spicy scent, it sent tingles down me and I was more than ready to tuck into it.

In the aluminium foil, there were 4 neatly sliced Stingray, each about 1.5 inch in width and laying on a bed of red lava looking chilli. The meat was nice and freshed, well cooked so that when I used the chopstick to pick it up, the meat came out easily and tasted deliciously soft.

The chilli was fabulous. It had a hint of sweetness adding to the strong spicy flavor. I even scooped just the chilli alone to eat with the rice. It was that good.

*~ Barbeque Sotong ~*

I am not one who will appreciate most food as my taste buds are more... customed to certain taste and seafood ain't exactly high on my list of most favourite. I did tried one but it still taste like barbeque rubber to me =x

The other 3 loved it though, though Ray mostly gotten onion instead. Like the Stingray, the sotong was covered in a sea of chilli. As it was placed far from me, I did not managed to get its scent.

Though Ying and Jia Wei were raving about it being quite nice and the way the guys were digging through the onions hoping there were any left, I figured they must have loved it alot.

*~ La La ~*

The La La came right after the Stingray and I was the one who pried open the foil to see what it was. As I always insisted not eating shell or clam food, I bet you guys must be surprised that I actually ate one.

The La La was covered in a slightly more watery chilli than the Stingray or Sotong, but to spike my curiousity enough to even taste it, that goes to show how delicious smelling it must had been.

After seeing it was La La, I took one and put it on Ray's plate, wanting to see his reaction. But since he was busy playing DS and I couldn't resist the temptation, I took a spoonful of the watery chilli and mixed with rice and ate it. But the taste of the seafood smell was still overpowering for an anti shell person like me.

Ying ate and told me to try it for she said its "fishy" smell was not as strong as the ones selling outside ( as in other places that she had tried ). With her encouraging and my growing curiosity of the taste, I finally took one and ate it. =x I still felt like its a rubber band filled with spicy soupy thing. Maybe I don't know how to appreciate it, but it was gobbled up by the others in an instant.

But for a calm dish to be able to tantalise my taste bud, it was pretty good ( and I usually just avoid them, my record of not eating shell/ calm food for over around 20 years was broken ).

*~ Kang Kong ~*

This was definately one dish that I would not touch if I could. My hatred for veggies is so strong that it surprised MeiXuan ( One of my other best friends ^.^ ) last month or the month before when she saw me eating some lettuce and cucumber from the side salad.

But this dish came with Ikan Bilis aka Anchovies and chopped red chilli. Ying and I tried to get our hands on the Ikan Bilis haha... It did not looked as spicy as the previous 3 dishes but hey, I didn't ask the others much on this one. Basically because, I am not interested =x And yea, they finished this as well...

*~ Barbeque Chicken Wings ~*

Hmm... This dish taste like the same as the ones selling elsewhere. Nothing special but then again, I did not try out the chilli sauce that comes along with it as it was placed too far from me ( usually the sauce can make or break the food ). Not much to comment on it then hee...

*~ Black Pepper Cray Fish ~*

Oohhh lala~ and I am not saying the previous dish La La. This one was, without a doubt, the ultimate and the spiciest dish that we had order for the day! Ray finished my Coke after he tasted this dish.

Piping hot and eaten with the black pepper ( its not even sauce, its the chopped pieces of black pepper ) I was absolutely blown by the taste of this incredible dish! *~ Yums to the max!! ~*

At the first look, I was looking at it in distaste as I never had much love for cray fish, yet after the first bite, I was craving for more! Best go along with some rice to mild down the spicy taste abit, but it seems frutile as Ray was busy gulping down the drinks =x


Ying and Jia Wei on the other hand, were pulling out the fresh meat and dipping into the delicious black pepper and devouring the meat in delight. Oh man... I am salivating just the thought of it... I want more of the Black Pepper Cray Fish!!!

Sigh... That was a pure bliss of a meal, it most certainly was. After that meal, none of us were able to take another bite ( with the exception of Jia Wei of cos, I did not know where he put his food ).

We took a walk around, waiting for the 8.50pm shuttle bus to get back to Lot 1. Most of the shops closed around 6pm and we saw several types of stores. One had this animal feeding time, a couple of dogs shops, a fish spa, birds shop, and even a shop that sells 100 quail eggs for S$8! But that store also sell crocodile meat and rabbit meat =.= " Urgh...

Jia Wei went to buy some mango dessert while the rest of us watch him wondering how he managed to finish all the food =x

Soon we headed back to Lot 1, slacked around a little before heading home. Love the food we ate!!! ♥♥ Hee... Nice food and great friends and a sweet darling always put me in good mood ♥♥

P.S. Now the net work has problem... What is going on in my workplace???!!! Arghh... Is this supposed to be the minus effect since yesterday outing was ultra positive??!!! NO~~~~!!!!

With my love~

Never fails to tug a smile from me whenever I see the pictures or screenshots taken in game with my honey, Ray. ( Sorry if too small but I can't seem to get PhotoBucket to work for me here =x )

Photobucket


And indeed, one of my first gifts for him is in the form of pictures and poems... The first poem is at the bottom left, second is at the top left and third is at the top right. He was the one who complied the 3 poems together and added in snippets of our time together in the bottom right of this picture. He is that sweet and romantic! I am just a little sad cos I lost one of the screenshot of my dancer sitting behind his sniper in a dungeon and the angle taken looks as if my dancer was hiding behind him for protection...

Photobucket


Another one of my favorite picture~ With his high priest looking at my gypsy dancer hee...
But of cos, there are times that I thought I lost him forever ( due to some... unspeakable problems and random interferance ) and thus the creation of the next poem :



Photobucket

Thankfully that period of time was gone and I am absolutely delighted to be back into his embrace, can almost hear him says "Silly dear" or "笨笨 dear" but it don't matter as long as I am with him =p

We did headed into private servers to play as well, in fact in a couple of RO servers :


Photobucket

This was taken in Morroc after I made a dark flying angel band for his stalker and him making a flying angel band for my high priestess. I used RO emoticon to kiss him and he used another emoticon to kiss back. We did this many times and it happens so that the GM walked pass and...


Photobucket

Turned us into Incubus and Succubus =.=" And the GM seemed to be so pleased with this effect that he started turning other players into random monsters such as Lunatic ( a cute little white bunny ) and Goat ( the name speak for itself ). And since this particular server allows all jobs to use carts, I saw the lunatic dragging the cart behind it while it hopped everywhere ( extremely hilarious sight... Its a pity I was laughing so hard I didn't screenshot it in time ) and the goat looks exactly in its place pulling the cart along with it.

The GM of cos, turned itself to one of the MVP ( a boss monster ), Baphomet. But he changed himself to be as tall as a adopted character and my high priestess ( which was turned into Succubus and blowing kisses everywhere ) seemed to tower over him =x

Whoever said life in a game is boring and no life, they should come and play a little themselves. Let your hair down and stop tying your hair in a tight bun! Makes you looks older and gain more wrinkles!! * Runs~ *

Hee... But life in RO was definately fun. Both private servers and real servers of cos. The good thing about private servers is that you can change the hairstlyes or the color of the hair and clothes to more varities of colors. And you can choose for fastest leveling speed or maybe the slowest leveling speed ( enough to make me vomit blood, no thanks ). Oh and to test out skills and stats and equipments and cards.


*~ In depth of game, skip this if you don't want to know ~*

Everyone started off as Novice. From there you can choose to be Merchant, Acolyte, Thief, Magician, Swordman, Archer, Taekwando kid, Gun Slinger, Ninja or Super Novice ( the last 3 jobs that I mentioned, you will stuck there till you max level and can evolve no more ).

Taekwando kid can turn into either:

There is another job for the 6 basic jobs after the reach the so called final form ( 2nd Job ).
For example :

And so on. I don't bother checking out the rest cos I am lazy!
