林峰 - 爱在记忆中找你

我终于买了林峰的处男专辑!

I finally got Raymond Lam's album!!

Today went out with Jul to watch Indiana Jones (which was okay, but I can't say whether it is better or worse than the previous Indiana shows because I never watch any others before) and before meeting her I went to withdraw some cash. To my surprise, I saw my account with a couple of hundred dollars more! I told T before during worktime that once I got my pay, I shall go and buy his album and that is what I did! Yeah! Haha!

And I keep telling Jul today to watch Heart of Greed today since she has the time now!


But I am a little disappointed with the packaging. I saw cardboard box when I purchase the album, and I thought it is just a box covering the real album. Turns out that the cardboard box is the album cover. !!?? That is just so weird lah! Cardboard box??!! Hope his next album will have better packaging, and I am sure that there will be album number 2, because this current album is selling very well in HK and he won best new artist with this album =) Will say whether the album is good or bad in the next entry!


Yeah, going off to watch 味分高下, which I think won the best variety show in HK 2007. This show is hilarious! It is a HK variety show about food, whereby the show got celebrities to either see, hear, taste, lick, smell to differentiate food. One special example is that once they actually got a celeb to touch a rambutan and a guy's beard to let her guess which is the edible rambutan!! Haha! And it is host by Patrick Tang 鄧健泓 and Harlem Yu 庾澄慶, so there are some awkward moments whereby Harlem said incorrect cantonese.... Haha!

Ok, really go back to the show 味分高下 le! Cheerios!

American Idol

Big David vs Little David

My favourite for this season is Carly Smithson, and so it shall be. But after she was gone from the show, I hope Big David will win the title.

But still, after today, after Little David sang Imagine (which almost make me cry), David A should be the winner...

And tml Carly is back with the others to sing! Yeah!

American Idol still rocks!

And just a note, I love the english song Chasing Pavements by Adele right now... great song! Voice reminds me a little of Joss Stone (who I like as well...)... can go to my playlist at the end of the sidebar and look for the song... =) or maybe if u are lucky enough u guys would have heard it when u loaded my blog =)

Cheerios. I am off to bed =)

Updates and Lucas!

Went out with IE people yesterday... but because details were finalised like 3 hours before the meeting, a lot of people cannot make it and there were only 5 of us left -_-'''''

But overall it is fun to keep track with people's lives. And Huiteng darling said that I am turning very canto right now (my blog has been playing canto songs for a couple of months already...). She said it like it is a bad thing... =( I know Yy is very sceptical about my obsession with Raymond Lam now =(

Pictures with Huiteng because I forgot to bring my camera yesterday... fewer pictures this time but shall post them soon =)

Anyway, my aunt just sent me new Lucas' pictures! He has grown up so big now! And has more hair! And 2 front teeth! He is getting so so so so cute! I shall post 2 of his pictures here... there are quite a few actually..

I actually show Huiteng they all the older Lucas pictures and I only get them yesterday when I came home... and I said it before, and I shall said it again...

I HAVE THE CUTEST COUSIN EVER =)

Cheerios!

Raymond Lam Rocks!



He is making me love him more and more!!

Ah!!!

Actually, I used to hate him because I think he is quite fat. Plus, he was wearing glassess in the drama that I saw him in, which I thought was really ugly. But now, I am mad over him!!!

Anyway, he speaks really good mandarin (and english and of course cantonese) and I found a video of him on a taiwanese show called 女人我最大 and it was funny!!






And now everytime I go to work I have to listen to his song (esp the 爱在记忆中找你) or else I can't work...

Oh goodness, help me man....

Survivor Micronesia

Yes, I still watch Survivor. This is because I think as a reality TV show, this can be a really good "script" that was never written beforehand if there is enough drama. And this season is really good because of all the blindsides.

But now I know who won the current season of Survivor Micronesia le.

Thanks to the TODAY paper.

Irritating!

I always only want to know only when I am watching the show. I, like many others, never like to know the results before the show. But thanks to the US time difference and the different broadcast timing between Singapore and US, I now know who is the winner.

早知道不要看报纸了... 真是个很笨的决定....

Oh well. But she is a deserving winner, kinda like her from the beginning although I was rooting more towards the runner up. But then again, I am fine with whichever 2 wins because I supports both =)

If u want to know who wins the title of Sole Survivor, click here.

Second best season behind Cook Islands (the season whereby an Asian American won the title) I think.

More about my work the next blog during the weekend... =)

Cheerios.

Tagged

I have been tagged by stupid Aiwei, so here goes...

1. At what age do you wish to marry?
Late 20s... because I believe that only then I will be a good wife and mother... plus I know myself. I must enjoy my unmarried life first before I am willing to become married and tied up... haha. I know it sounds like what a guy will say but to me it feel that way. Plus, the NUS palmist said that I should get married by 27, which I think is a good age to be married.

2. How many children do you want?
2 and that's it. Unless by accident... haha. But seriously, I want my children to have most of my attention and so having too many will not do. Plus, I dunno whether I can take the pain of labour.

3. What I want the most now?
I wanted so many things, like health, happiness, good job, good grades, good life, good boyfriend and husband, parents to be happy and healthy bla bla bla. I can't choose lah.

4. What do you want to be when you grow up?
Everything that I dreamt of... successful, happy, being loved... I recently dreamt of having my own wedding boutique. Not that I want to get married now but it's more of having my own shop, making people happy and being a wedding planner will be fun too. But then again, only when I am loved and married lah. If I am a single old woman, I dun think I can stand seeing lovey-dovey people getting married every other day.

But then again, my wish is to live another country. This has been nagging me for the past.... 4 years? I know, maybe because I haven't lived in another country for a long period of time but somehow or rather I feel that my destiny (not just love but my life in general) lies out there in another country waiting for me...

5. Who are you proud of?
My parents. My parents aren't that educated and we are not rich... but they tried to give me everything I wanted and more. They are willing to starve so as to give me what I want. The love they given me is so much till the point that I dun think I can ever return them.

Just for that reason, I never ever grumble that I can't do this or that because my parents are not rich. I know that they tried their best.

6.What are you afraid to lose now?
My parents again. They are much older than most of my friends' parents and logically speaking, I know I have to deal with losses much earlier than most of my friends although I hope not. They loved me too much and so I am worried that there will be a void in my love if that happens... I know I am selfish lah but I have no siblings and so I know that I may become alone if I haven't got married. It already pains me to see my mum and dad having body aches and bone pains after work...

7. If you meet someone you love, would you confess to him/her?
Same as aiwei's answer. Only when I am drunk.

8. What would you do when you're feeling down and depressed?
Cried, keep to myself, listen to music, surf net, try to forget about it and hope that the matter will resolve by itself.

9. What are the requirements that you wish from other half?
Haha.. so many of them. But one impt one is he has to make me feel comfortable and I can be myself around him =)

10. Which type of person do you hate most?
Wah so many sias... liars, cheaters, double-faced snakes, those people that make u feel unworthy. But the last one is that one I hate the most. Because I feel that way many times and I absolutely hate that feeling.

11. Do you cherish every single of your friendship?
Yes. It takes the right place, the right time and the right moment to know each other to be friends. What a question!

12. Do you believe in God?
Yup, because many times I feel that though I never been to church (except AHS mini church), sometimes whenever I silently pray to Him, many times things will be alright. Many little situations in life make me believe in Him. I believe He has been helping me.... situations such as when I last min study a chapter for exam in a sense of panic, there will be a question in the paper regarding that chapter =) and I always remember the details of that last min chapter. I believe that is the work of God.

13. What do you think is the most important thing in your life?
All sorts of love... humans are group creatures. I can't imagine life being alone....

14. Do you find it a necessary for you have a boyfriend/girlfriend?
Can't really answer that question yet... sometimes I find myself setting a standard way too high I think...

15. What do you want your friend to be like?
Someone like me!!! So that I won't be called crazy ALL THE TIME!!

17. If you have a change, which part of your character would you like to change?
My lack of patience and stubornness... caught me in many sticky situations in the past...

18. If you're feeling low one day, who will you go to?
No one. I keep to myself most of the time unless I am really unhappy.

19. If you can turn back time, when and why?
Back to AHS days, whereby I think I learnt the most and grew up the most. Back to those days whereby I failed my maths all the time, seeing my class guys reporting soccer scores in the morning, bitching about one of my classmates =) Back to those guiding days whereby we can stay to nighttime then we go home... the days of NCC and scouts and bb discussions... times whereby we enjoy so much fun. Those chicgok (and gok chic, chic chic, gok gok and what's not. Jul even drew a family tree on that!!!), monkey, rabbit, sparrow, computerface, LOW Low low and frog and all those stupid nicknames days.... Those were the days whereby u can't dun do homework and still get through sch... haha. And also my childhood days whereby I asked my mum stupid questions =)

20. If I can have a guy to have an one night stand with, who will it be?
There are more than one actually *grins* I am not loose or what ok! It's just that there are different guys with different reasons.

- Mr Darcy in Pride and Prejudice is one, like aiwei. I love him! He is loving, cool, MANLY, bla bla bla.... I think he will take charge =)

- Orlando Bloom. He is sweet like candy and MANLY too... I think with him, he should gentle and loving.

- Brad Pitt!! Come on! Who doesn't?!

- Raymond Lam 林夆. I admit it is due to my recent craze but then again as I said, he makes me believe in everything he said =) And he is cute =)

Instructions: Remove 1 question from above, and add in your personal question to make it a total of 20 questions. Then tag 8 people in your links list at the end of the post. Notify them in their chat box that he/she has been tagged.

Yup yup that's it...

Just one thing to add though...

I don't want to go to work tml....

I DON'T WANT TO GO TO WORK TML....

I DON'T WANT TO GO TO WORK TML....

But I am excited at the same time. Sighz...

Cheerios.

Finally!

I had finally finished watching The Drive of Life aka 歲月風雲! In total, including 溏心风暴, I had watched 100 episodes of shows in 3 weeks of my hols! Haha, fulfilled my dream of show-watching. Thought 歲月風雲 wasn't as nice as 溏心风暴 but still my mum and I were at the edge of our seats from about epi 45 to the end because the evil plot was unfolding...

And I agreed with my hei jie, the love story of 荣秀风 and 华振邦 is really touching. They were together, spilt up due to circumstances, guy went off with another girl before realising they still love each other, then went through many other things to be together. And many of those scenes my fave 林峯 song will come up and play in the background... 林峯 is really the typical lover guy in dramas man... every time he looked at the female characters and said all sorts of promises I can actually believe them totally... hahahha. I think it's is probably just my own bias towards him that makes me feel that way.

I found someone who combines the best scenes of their love on youtube and I think hei jie will agree that those are really indeed touching scenes from the video...




Sighz, if those will who have just graduated and looking for some shows to watch, this show is a can-watch. But it's 60 episodes.... so be warned =)
Now finished watching shows, can concentrate on my internship le...
Cheerios.

Updates

These few days I have been slacking at home and out sometimes with friends and teaching tuition. Sounds boring but I really like this kind of life. Can't believe that I am actually starting my second internship next mon. To think have to wake up early again just sians me.... sighz. But Visa seems to have nice corporate culture. It doesn't seems to be a bad company to work in so I guess I am in good hands huh?

Yesterday Irene and I had dinner with Aleks and brought him to Ah Chew's that he has been talking about. The last time we went there the place was closed =( It is basically the last time we will be seeing him because he is flying back home on May 27. Haha. He got a super short haircut! And he is like a headless bull... we basically had to keep up with him because he is always walking to somewhere out of the blue without telling me and he walked DAMN FAST! But before meeting Aleks Irene and I met a strange ang moh. Basically the points that he made are:
  • We spoke good english.
  • He is from England
  • He was heading towards the airport and he did not want to leave but it's a business trip.
  • He likes Singapore.
  • He is 38 years old, *** metres tell and *** kg.
  • He likes Singaporean women.
  • He wants to get a wife here who is "SMALL AND CUTE".

The point is for me and Irene:

  • I think we were not talking in english before he approached us. We were talking in a mix of chinese and english.
  • We don't care where he is from. Unless he is a football player from England.
  • We don't need to know where the hell he is heading to. He can be heading to timbatu for the hell we care.....
  • I have no problem with him liking Singapore.
  • Haha, giving us vital statistics. I can tell how u look without the exact weight and height. In a nutshell, you are just chucky. And that is being to u already.
  • Ok Singaporean women, so?
  • Orh.... you want to find a wife in Singapore lah.
So basically, he was hitting on us. More on Irene I think
  • Irene fits the definition of small. Cute maybe not so much (Hahaha, that is what Aleks hinted ok Irene) but small yes. Or maybe in Aleks' term, hahahaha....
  • He was leaning very close to Irene when he talked.
  • He was looking at Irene very deeply.

But he is gross! Very gross because

  • He was wearing exercise shorts (those fbt types that hits his mid-thigh or higher) with LONG SLEEVE SHIRTS... those that guys wear to work types. And he left his shirt halfway unbutton at the top.
  • He has super hairy legs and he kept shaking them.
  • He was wearing flip flops.
  • He is kinda balding.
  • I saw his extreme forest of chest hair when he was leaning towards Irene. From the open part of his shirt....
  • He was holding on to the highest handlebar in the train, so basically I think he has a body odour...

I have nothing against ang mohs! I swear! I have nothing against englishman! But that was extremely gross!!!

Wah, basically that guy can make me type so much. Haha. I think Irene is either laughing madly or thinking of ways to kill me after reading so much.
Ok pictures time! The last time we will be definitely seeing him... He called Irene 矮 (and after a while, me 矮) so basically we called him Fatty. Haha....


Our food at V8 and Aleks' reaction to them... haha. He basically thinks the portion was too small...


Aleks with weird expressions...

Irene's and mine desserts.... forgot to took pictures of desserts that Aleks had... he actually had 3 of them!


First picture was Aleks trying to push me down so that he can look taller and I looked shorter... second picture was us trying to make stupid faces.... third picture looked normal, but Aleks was trying to look taller again... look at his heels..


Nice picture of me and Irene... and a group photo.....


I like this picture because basically he looks like he broke his leg... hahaha...

Despite feeling angry with him at times and getting 气死 by him, I think I will miss him. He can be really fun at times. And the following is Irene's reaction towards almond paste as a dessert... basically if u don't understand, she doesn't like it.... and Irene if u are reading this, please dun kill me for posting the video... your reaction was really funny... hahaha.


And Adeline, if u are reading this, I want this mascara from Paris if u ever get to do some shopping there. It is called Inimitable mascara. If it is more than $45 sing dollars, dun get it for me k? Cos Singapore is $45 dollars... picture from Chanel website.



Enjoy them!

Cheerios.

Shopping Spree

My mum really dotes me.... she went out with me on wed and bought hundreds of dollars of stuff for me!! Most of the stuff is what I need, eg shoes and outfits for work etc, so it's justifable!

Here are some pictures.

The clothes...there is one white-yellowish top that I really like and it costs only $30++ after discount!

The shoes... the one in the Hush Puppies bag is the most expensive because it is real leather shoes that causes $130 I think...

One Carlo Rino bag that is on discount (more than 50%), one Pierre Cardin wallet (not mine but my mum bought it for herself), one Lancome mascara set and one Lancome lipstick (Lipstick is for my mum as her mother's day present. Wanted to get Chanel's rouge for her but she refused to try any of the colours because she said it's too expensive. In the end, the purchases we made at Lancome qualifies us to renew our membership and get small free gifts! )

Anyway, the induction programme I went on wed for Visa gave me a mini shock. Turn out that there is ANOTHER project to be done on top of my internship duties. *stunned* Dunno will have enough time anot. Stressed sia. Somemore need to do a big presentation at the end of the internship to Lord knows who... and we will have to meet the regional director of Visa or something like that... I can forsee that these 3 months I may be damn stressed lah...

Ok, I am rather lazy to blog now, so I shall leave u guys with all these. I think I shall end here... go and watch 歲月風雲 before having dinner. Ciao and cheerios!
