HI FRIENDSSSSS. I'm sorry i know i haven't blogged in AGES :( I'm so sad omg. AH WELL. I HAVE 1000 THINGS TO BLOG ABOUT but i'm gonna 'clear' half first HAHA. I considered leaving out stuff actually but nvm lah i'll just make it quick! :) Sigh sometimes blogging really feels like a chore & idk if it's really necessary cause i think most people who'd see this alr know a lot about my life?? Haha but i still wanna do it lah cause it just helps me rmb stuff in the long-run! OKAY HERE GOES. I'm gonna be super brief for some of them LOL.
7 May
I'm gonna go WAYYY back haha. Cause i left out a few events during my bday post (cause these aren't really related to my bday) SO YEAP HAHA.
Finally met the JC friends after so so long!! :) They bought Chow, Fad and I a small cake from Awfully Chocolate hehe so sweet :) I was glad that almost everyone could make it! Only Jac couldn't come :( A few of them met first and had dinner at Nam nam but i came later cause i had smth on before that! I forgot what i had on LOL. But i only had dinner later with debs and gid if i'm not wrong haha. We ate at Monster Curry and there weren't enough seats so the rest went to walk around first HAHA.
FRIENDS :)
Then we went to Tiong Bahru Bakery!! Only some of us bought food haha. YAY then we played ASSHOLE TAIDI!! HAHA there were too many of us so we kinda had to pair up!! We taught Joey and Nicole how to play :D i think it was them?? Omg this was too far back man haha.
The lighting in the prev group pic was weird so we took another one :D YEAP THEN I WENT HOME! And a few of them went to grab a drink haha.
8 May
My family celebrated mother's day! It was also an advanced celebration for me (supposedly) cause i spent my bday in Chiang Mai but my cousin didn't even know that we were celebrating my bday also LOLOL. For that reason i excluded this from my bday post HAHA. But it's okay lah!!
My weird friend came along
The service was really bad omg the food took FOREVER to come and i was so unsatisfied?! They didn't have a lot of the dishes we wanted also. Ah well but the food was really good!!
Time to cut the cake!! It doesn't even say Happy Birthday HAHAHA whatever. Anyway my siblings and i made a card for my mom :D Hehe and the night before my brother made a vid for her so we surprised her with that first! Then during lunch we gave her the card :D Omg so fast now it's Father's Day?! LOLOL.
Matching outfits :D Hmm they look like they both wanna kill me
Hehe so after this we left!! I think Andy and I went home to change afterwards cause we were gonna watch Shakespeare in the park :D And i had to really rush cause i wanted to nap and i had to go to bugis to collect a shirt that i altered! Haha i really wanted to collect it so that i could wear it when i went out with Andy the next day! YEAHH i was super tired so i couldn't skip the nap either HAHA. BUT I WAS PRETTY EFFICIENT. Once i got up from my nap i left the house in like 15 mins haha. Managed to collect my shirt in time!! Then i went to Lavender to meet Andy and Ws :) They prepared dinner for us!! :) Us referring to Marilyn and I LOL. HEHE SO NICE. From there we cabbed to Fort Canning tgt!
3rd time here YAY
So thankful that they chose to do a play i'm familiar with!!
I really love the atmosphere and the venue omg.
Guess who was there too!! Haha he told me the prev day that he'd be at Shakespeare in the park also! I spotted him really quickly for some reason?? Hehe so i talked to him for awhile then went to my spot!
YAY SO EXCITING. Marilyn had family dinner beforehand i think?? Sooo she came later and she also didn't really have to eat HAHA.
YUMZ. IT WAS SO GOOD. LIKE HONESTLY HAHA. They also made potato salad and some mexican dish, i forgot what it's called but you just have to dip the nachos in the dressing HAHA so they bought the nachos and made the dressing themselves! HEHE IT WAS SO YUMMY. YAYYY GOOD JOB GUYS :D
THE STAGEE. Should've taken a pic of it when it was brighter haha
Someone being a third wheel hmm
Then Ws went to pick Marilyn so we took the chance to take pics haha
Lopsided pic but it'll do :D
AND SO THE PLAY BEGAN. Omg all the lines were so familiar. Hehe i could explain everything to Andy :D I quite enjoyed it but i didn't really like the modern twist on it?? HMM it made everything look even stupider cause no one behaves like them in today's world LOL. The play is actually quite stupid if haha if you dk the story you should go find out about it!! :P But it's still entertaining lah haha. The cast did a good job though :D Sadly i couldn't really see their faces haha. So when i saw how they looked like up close in their promotional vid i got a shock?! The Romeo and Juliet look like uni kids haha and they were better looking from afar :( AH WELL HAHA.
The guy in the dark blue jacket and the girl in pink are R&J respectively!
Hehe here's a selfie cause i kinda liked what i wore that day!! I mean it was really simple but i liked my paper bag shorts :D Hehe so that was all! YAY i wanna go back next year :)
9 May
This day was quite happening!! First we met Sammi and Sheep for lunch at BV :D Ate at some ramen place and it was really good! Hehe it was fun hearing about their trip to Taiwan! They went alone so cool.
Then we went to daily scoop for ice-cream hehehe. Omg i always go there but i really love that place hehe. Talked for awhile longer and just chilled until it was time to leave HAHA. We were thinking that we should have a post-ORD trip tgt! LIKE US 4 (if my mom allows LOL). IT WOULD BE FUN HEHE. So at around 2+/3 we made our way to NP for Shinta's graduation!! :)
Haha we kinda just waited outside for awhile?? We didn't go in for the ceremony cause we thought they only allowed 2 people to go or smth HAHA. But apparently when Pearl went they just entered and no one stopped them LOL. We totally should've done that haha.
YAY THEN SHE CAME OUT :D We bought the sunflower for her!! Sammi chipped in haha
Keyun and Shinta's pri sch friends were there too!! :) Haha she felt bad that she made us go there just to take pics with her and all but honestly it's fine lah. We wanted to go :D Hehe yay happy for her!!
So after this was when Andy brought me out for my bday dinner :D Alr blogged about that haha.
23 May
Okay now i'll blog about the time AFTER my ocsp!! I still haven't gotten pics from OCSP lol so idk when i'm gonna blog about it haha i might just blog with the pics i took in my phone first! Haha sooo the night after i came back from Chiang Mai for Little Mix's concert!! I almost forgot about it HAHA. Hehe i went with my mom, my sis and her friend! My mom and i were really just going for fun LOLOL
The tickets were only $100?! LOL SO CHEAP COMPARED TO TAYLOR SWIFT'S. Haha i didn't know they were so cheap so i was kinda expecting something more?? Like more dancers on stage etc. You'll see later HAHA.
The opening act was Sam Willows!! I've been listening to their songs ever since haha. They're really good!! But think Gentlebones is better haha his songs really up there and he has a lot of successful songs!! For The Sam Willows people recognise a few haha.
After Sam Willows they just played music for awhile haha and a lot of people were dancing and singing along!! So cute haha. I felt like dancing also but nah no one would dance with me :(
Then Little Mix came out!! There was only 3 of them dancing cause one member sprained her ankle :( So sad ah well. But they were really good!! HEHE THEIR SINGING AND DANCING WERE ON POINT (THUMBS UP) I went to listen to some of their songs beforehand HAHA so i won't feel so sian :P Most of their songs are v catchy hehe so i've been listening to a few of them also!!
Ps the pics damn blur haha cause we were quite far away!! But we could still see them quite clearly lah it's just that my phone camera isn't super good haha.
During secret love song!! I do know quite a few of their songs haha so i could still sing along to some of them!! For the upbeat ones i was just dancing HAHA. My sis was so shy she refused to dance with me :( The whole time she was just video-ing LOL. I told her that i can help her video then she just enjoy herself but she insisted on video-ing so okay lorh haha.
Okay last pic!! As you can see they didn't change their outfits or change the set or anything HAHAHA. We were really just paying to see them sing and dance LOL but i guess it's reasonable since the tix were cheap!! They had 4 dancers which came out from time to time though haha. Hehe i enjoyed it even though i'm not really a Little Mix fan!! :)
26 May
I only vaguely rmb what we did that day haha. I think i met Andy at his house then we went to have lunch at Tim Ho Wan!! :)
YUMZ. Okay the food is actually so-so haha only this char siew bao is damn good!!
THEN WE WATCHED X-MEN :D Hehe i really liked it!! QUICK SILVER IS THE FUNNIEST. Hmm it was a bit repetitive though cause they're always talking about how there's good in Magneto and stuff but meh we've seen it before?? But i think it's been so long since i watched an X-Men movie i didn't really realise that it was repetitive until i saw the reviews haha. So other than that it was good :D
YAY SELFIES :D Can't stand his dao face haha. After that i had to go off for prac!! I really missed him a lot during Chiang Mai omg so i'm glad we could finally meet properly! If i'm not wrong we met the day before also haha but only during the evening i think?? HAHA TOO CONFUSING.
29 May
Dinner with my fam at my aunt's house!! We had crab noodles :D My aunt was back in Sg for awhile (she's working in Shanghai now) so i got to meet her quite a few times :) I'm so glad that she's doing better now!! Really genuinely so happy for her cause she looks healthier and more carefree hehe. (I shan't bring up what happened before :P )
30 May
My mom decided to bring my bro and I out for Spanish food!! Haha so random but she said she wanted us to try smth different so why not :D
Prawns!! Okay idk what's the fancy name for it HAHA but it was really yummy! And the bread went super well with the sauce!
Omg this tasted damn good too it was super flavourful and the mustard sauce really complemented the lamb!! I think we had one more dish but we didn't take a pic of it?? I'm not too sure haha.
LAST DISH: LOSTER RISOTTO!! OMGG it was too yumz. Look at it HAHA i got a shock when i saw it. The lobsters were really big and fleshy!! Hehe the rice was v tasty too it tasted like lobsters HAHA and towards the end i kept scraping it off the pan haha cause i couldn't get enough of it :P
Hehe after this i went to shop around by myself for awhile while waiting for my aunt and grandma!! The plan was for us to go for a manicure tgt :D Hehe so i went to a few shops then met them at Yakun at 313 and we cabbed to Robertson Quay for our manicure :D I was supposed to meet Andy at around 5+ for dinner or smth but then our manicure took longer than expected cause suddenly my eldest aunt came to do her nails also LOLOL. SO YEAHH. They served her first since she's their boss HAHA so i had to wait :P Hehe i picked this really cute light blue!! It chipped really soon though cause i'm super rough HAHA. Ah well. Ended up meeting Andy at around 6+/7 if i'm not wrong!
Hehe we had dinner at Itacho!! Then we went to shop :D At that point we each still had one $50 H&M gift card haha. And i had a $40 Topshop gift card! So yeah we wanted to quickly use them before they expired haha. Hehe he ended up using his voucher on this denim shirt!! IT LOOKS GOOD ON HIM :D And i was too picky so i didn't manage to buy anything LOL. But we still had fun shopping :D
31 May
Yay Andy and I finally went hiking!! We were planning to go really long ago but never really got the chance to! Hehe this time we went to the Southern Ridges Nature Walk! :) Andy kinda studied the route before deciding which way to go haha. One route led to Labrador but we went there before so we took the alternative route! We met at 8 at Habourfront Mrt!! SO EARLY OMG. I was damn tired haha but i powered through it :D
Be prepared to see many pics of Andy HAHA
So we began our hike!! THERE WERE 8 STOPS. There were a ton of stairs at the first stop :( It was so tiring HAHA stairs are the worst. This part is called Marang Trail!
HAPPYBOY96
Hehe then we reached our next stop: Faber Walk! Every stop is quite short haha so 8 sounds like a lot but it really isn't!
You can see the sun rays pouring in but really it wasn't that hot! It was quite chilly even haha i felt like i was gonna fall sick or smth cause i was sweaty and it was cold :( But still better than it being damn hot lah HAHA
Step Nike caps oops
Our path to Henderson Waves! We took the 300M route HAHAHA
Andy: "my hair looks not bad here"
THE WEATHER WAS PERFECT ACTUALLY. Hehe i'm so glad that we went early!! Also, the trail wasn't too tiring so we could just take our time and enjoy the scenery and everything :D I definitely prefer this over MacRitchie LOL
Henderson Waves!! :) Second time here and i still love the vibes haha
Stopped here for a short while cause i really like the place hehe it was damn chill
Next: Hilltop Walk! There are supposedly huge trees at this part of the hike but honestly i found it hard to spot them HAHAHA. I kept asking Andy "is it this tree" "is it that tree" but he kept saying "no lah can't be" but i think we expected them to be a lot bigger but they weren't?? IDK HAHAHA.
Sooo i just snapped pictures of random trees HAHAHA
STILL LOVING THE WEATHER
Yay i was really looking forward to this part!! Hehe it's the Forest Walk :D So the whole walk was on elevated walkways and we were surrounded by greenery!!
More pics of the cute boy
The walk was so chill hehe i was super happy omg couldn't stop taking pics
YAY nice pic taken by a kind stranger :)
3 of the same breed of dogs omg they must really love this breed haha
Acting cool
Okay at least he looks better than me hahaha
Then we reached Alexandra Arch! It was a super short stop haha it took us like 5 mins to cross this bridge!
Then we reached the start of Hort Park! If you're wondering how i can rmb all the stops it's because of this map HAHA
Thus began our Floral Walk at Hort Park :D
There weren't that many nice looking flowers so i didn't take that many pics of them haha. But there was still quite a lot to see!
The trees so silvery!!
Andy was hungry so i gave him my granola bar haha
Hehe sat here and chilled for a short while before continuing! :) LOL at the end he said "wth it's a 190 calories" HAHA LOL. Ah well the granola bar was all we had haha i guess beggars can't be choosers :P
SUCH VIBRANT COLOURS :)
There was quite a lot to see at Hort Park but we didn't cover everything haha. So after we were more or less done we made our way to canopy walk but then we realised it was closed :( Like they put tape over the entrance and put up a "dangerous" sign :O Maybe they're doing some construction work. Haha so we left from there!! Made our way to Pasir Panjang MRT and went home from there!!
YAY COMPLETED THE WALK :) It was so much fun!! I felt so satisfied hehe. And thank God it wasn't too exhausting cause i lacked sleep the prev night and i would've been really whiny if it was like MacRitchie :P
Hehe sooo i went to Andy's house to nap for i think 2h?? HAHA LOL i was really damn tired. If i rmb correctly i think we watched a movie or smth?? Haha i rmb one of the days we watched The Proposal :D Andy has never watched it! I still find it funny haha. YEAP basically we just relaxed, had dinner and stuff until it was time for me to go for samba! :)
1 June
Happening day!! :) Hehe we celebrated Keyun's birthday :D So Andy, Ws and I met first to get her present!
Had lunch at 313's food court first haha. Andy was wearing his new denim shirt :D Then we made our way to Fossil!
The plan was to get her one of these watches but we realised that the 30% discount didn't apply to them so they were too ex for us :( SO SADD. THEY'RE SO PRETTY THOUGH.
We were supposed to get her a present before meeting her, St and Nicky at Minds Cafe!! BUT WE COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING. So in the end we went to Naiise and bought her a laptop cover!! :) It was like $70+ but still wayyy cheaper than the watch LOL.
We wanted to get her this initially!! IT'S PERFECT FOR HER HAHAHA. CAUSE THEY ALWAYS CALL HER A SLOTH :P So funny omg we were so happy when we found it then we realised that it was in really bad condition :( Like the sides were cracked and it had a lot of scratches! AH WELL. So in the end we bought her the marble case! Haha it's like too mainstream/basic for her but she still liked it :)
So we met them at Minds Cafe!! YAYY HAD SO MUCH PLAYING WITH THEM. First we played a game called Exploding Kittens haha, recommended by Ws!! HEHE IT WAS NOT BAD. Then we also played cards against humanity LOLOL. The guys were damn good at it?! THEY KEPT WINNING. The girls cmi haha we're not funny/sick enough LOL. I forgot what else we played but i know we played Saboteur at the end! :)
Hehe so after that we pretended to leave and Keyun left with Shinta to meet Yh! She thought it was only gonna be the 3 of them but nope the rest of us made it there before her to surprise her!! :) Haha Ws made a wrong turn so we took super long to get to Somerset from Dhoby?! SHINTA HAD TO KEEP STALLING HER. Damn funny haha. In the end we managed to make it before them!!
YAYYY SUCCESS. Ps this is quite unglam but i don't have any other pic of her HAHA
Hehe so we ordered and starting eating!! THE FOOD WAS YUMMY. We ordered truffle fries to share too :D Hehe really enjoyed the time with them omg.
Group pic after dinner!! THE BALLOONS SO PRETTY
ANDDD they disappeared in this pic LOL. Let me tell you the story....i was holding on to it and they were tied to a spoon but they were tied super loosely so i think i didn't hold it properly or smth and it flew up!! :(( OMGG..I FELT SO BAD. It went all the way up LOL there was no way of getting them down. AH WELL. Everyone kept laughing but i was the only sad one?! HAHAHA. At least Keyun was cool with it!! Look at how bright Andy is smiling LOLOL it's cause right before the pic he was still laughing about me letting go of the balloons -.- What a weirdo PSHH.
Hehe sooo after dinner we took awhile to decide what to do next. Eventually we decided to go to Shinta's house! So we all squeezed into Ws's card HAHAHA. Hehe went to the function room at Shinta's place and chilled there and played murderer! IT WAS DAMN FUN. It was super simple haha. At first we were too good at it LOL like we kept guessing the murderer in the first round so it wasn't fun :P Then we removed the detective HAHA so it was a lot more fun after that!! We stayed till 11+ if i'm not wrong! Andy and I just cabbed home haha. Hehe so that's all for that day! WE HAD FUN :))
2 June
Hehe i had lunch with my family and Andy came along! The plan was just for me to have lunch and shop with my aunt but then my bro, mom and grandmother decided to come for lunch too! YAY WE WENT TO MARCHEE. I LOVE MARCHE. I can't emphasise this enough haha their savoury crepes are really THE BEST.
HEHEHE
Haha sooo Andy kinda joined us for shopping? He did the manual work by helping us carry us shopping loots HAHA. I only bought a top from Zara though!! Hehe but i love it it's super cute. Then my aunt had to go to taka to collect a jacket! Awhile later we took a break and went to Toast Box at Wisma!
Andy and i being weird :D Hehe we bought some food there then once we were done eating we left! :)
I went back to Andy's house to take a nap first if i'm not wrong cause i had samba and we were gonna meet the bondue peeps for supper afterwards!! SOOO i knew i'd be really tired so i napped haha.
Hehe after samba Andy went to SOE to find me and we made our way to upper thomson tgt!! :) IT WAS SO LATE OMG. We only got there at 11+ HAHA. The meeting time was supposedly 11 but so many of us were late LOL. Hehe but we all still came!! :)
YAY CRISPY PRATA. I only had one cause i wasn't that hungry haha. Omg it was so nice to hang out with them again!! :) Hehe even just talking about random sch related stuff was fun :P Andy could sort of catch on :D
We didn't know where to go afterwards haha cause we wanted to play Avalon!! We walked all the way to some ulu place to find a playground but there was no playground in sight?! Hj kept saying there was a playground in that area HAHAHA. In the end Remus drove us to Toly's house and we played Avalon there!! :) Hehe his car was a 7-seater so we didn't have to squeeze :D At first we didn't wanna go to his house cause we were afraid of disturbing his sis! Hehe but she didn't complain about us at all so YAY :D
AVALONNN. IT WAS SO INTENSE AND FUN OMG. I could actually think straight at that hour HAHA. I kept getting the spies?! ZZZ it's so hard to be the bad guy :( BUT IT WAS FUN HEHE. We ended up leaving at around 2+/3 if i'm not wrong?? It was really late HAHA. So we cabbed home AGAIN and we felt bad for wasting money but the time we spent with them was worth the midnight surcharge tbh!! :) YAYY can't wait to meet them again.
4 June
Woke up EARLYY for arts mock camp!! We had to teach the facis the samba groove haha then we put up a short performance for them :D IT WAS QUITE FUN.
Found pics while stalking the arts camp website HAHA. We played Samba!! This was during 6th break LOL which is a very intense and confusing break with pretty hardcore choreo. LOL they're lucky they got to see it :D (Jk not really)
And here's a more decent pic HAHAHA
First time squeezing into this tiny samba t-shirt?! IT'S REALLY DAMN SMALL. I wore it twice alr haha both times i really felt damn suffocated LOL. No breakfast for me if not my tummy will show :(
I LOVED MY FACE PAINT THOUGH :D
Hehe so i changed and went to meet Andy for lunch!! :)
YAY MAKI-SAN :D hehe after this we went back to Lavender and AGAIN i napped cause i was so sleep deprived!! We went home late the prev night cause of Samba and had to report at around 8 :( SO TIRING.
Hehe then we went out to meet Ws and Yh for dinner!! :) YH SUGGESTED NAKHON. Just nice i was kinda craving for it!! :)
THE FOOD CAME TOO QUICKLY. HAHAHA Yh and Ws were reaching so they told us to order first and all the food came before they arrived LOL. SO FUNNY HAHA. But i'm amazed at how efficient they are!!
FRIENDSSS :) Hehe after this they went to my house to chill!! WE PLAYED SHERIFF :D I love that game omg. The first time i played it was with Raymond and he was super good haha. I tried to be as good as him but i don't think i succeeded!! HAHAHA. But it was still really fun :D Ws's dad could send Yh home but he couldn't send Andy home :( So they suggested that he just stayover HAHA. I asked my mom and she said okay!! So as usual he just slept in my sister's room LOL
Haha sooo the next morning we got up and went back to Lavender so he could change!
5 June
Okay i'm gonna stop at June 5th HAHA. SOO we went to Stateland Cafe! :) THEIR DISHES WERE REALLY YUMMY.
I had the mentaiko prawn aglio olio and i finished it super quickly cause it was too yummy hehe.
Andy ordered the hainanese chicken risotto and it tasted like a super atas chicken rice HAHAHA. IT WAS REALLY GOOD TOO. I know it looks super wet a bit meh but trust me it was damn flavourful and worth it haha. Okay it was a bad idea to go on a weekend cause it was a lot more ex :( So if you wanna go make sure you go on a weekday!! :)
Haha lunch was the highlight of our day so i can't rmb what we did afterwards HAHAHA.
That's about it for now!! I STILL HAVE A LOT TO BLOG ABOUT. But i'll need to save it for another time haha. I squeezed too many days into one post alr :P I still have to blog about OCSP, Kscope Mock Camp, Bangkok and many other stuff!! I SHALL BE MORE DISCIPLINED FROM NOW ON (MUSCLE ARM). Haha once i go to Germany i wont get to blog at all!! So better blog as much as possible while i have the chance HAHA. Hehe that's all for now then! CYA SOONN :)
