I alway hear raves about Jack's Place since a long time ago and only today is my first time that i step into one of its branch at Orchard! Well, with MY's recommendation, I ordered chicken combo with cray-dunno-what (i forgot the creature's name but I know it's lobster's cousin) and it actually not that fabulous. Maybe only the house steaks lives up to its name! But MY said it no longer tastes that great anymore probably because the chef has been changed. Strange girl, she still recommends going to Jack's for dinner. LOL. The moment we sat down, we were giggling over the red candle placed on the small table and with couples dominant environment, I feel very pathetic for our single-state deep down. On our way home just now, we even joked about changing our msn's nicks to 'Under Demand', 'Over-Supply', 'Not-in-Demand' when we compared ourselves to Ms C whose current lifestyle holds me in awe without fail again and again! What's a pity that she doesn't blog or else i bet her popularity will besiege X-i-a-x-u-e's even without the usual vulgarities. (Don't get me wrong, I love her blog to bits!)

Anyway we have a great time yakking about the ongoings in MU(not relative to the game but to the players) while in the Jack's Place. MY laments that we only talk about online game stuff and no more others and that's saying that we two have no life. Sheesh! Dat's true!

Hm...MY's mum has just bought a LG G7120 for her. It's so cool that I keep drooling over it while MY's holding that killer-cellphone infront of me. I like it mirror dynamic screen which show animated info and cartoons. Drool...Once I reach home, i keep raving about it to my Dad. But too bad, my dad didn't say anything. Guess it will remain my dream for sometime until I find a rich BF and meanwhile be a 'standoffish' owner of NOKIA 8250. Yike!

I counted the number of pimples while bathing. 7!!!!! Horrendus. Even one has blood droplets spewing out. Goddam. I hate it. I often pride myself on my OK complexion(it's something I used to console myself whenever I feel so low about my physical appearance) Feeling very low-esteem now! Arg! Must be that I alway plonk myself down infront of my lappy for the whole day and for so many weeks that I seem to forgot my body need some decent amount of water to clear away my toxic. They say that birdnest is good for skin and my cousin who has been plagued by acnes proven it to work. However, despite my mum's spending hundreds of bucks on birdnest and we each drinks a bowl of such every few days, it DOESN'T SEEM TO WORK at all or rather it does the opposite to me. I'm now quite resistant to drinking birdnest! I think water should be the solution. Not to mention it's cheaper though not that really cheap in Singapore. Dad's been nagging us about using the water and power carefully because our bill alway exceeds $300 bucks and he can't imagine next month's bill when the pricing rate increase so much!

Tommorow, i shall not play MU so much. I shall look thru the recruit section and help my mum on housework and of course go for a jog at six. My convocation is 2 weeks from now and I don't wanna look puffy infront of my schoolmate. Let see if i can fulfil what i say here.

Mu is down. All our passwords are changed forcefully. Damn those hackers and cheaters! While waiting for my password, I decide to pay a visit to my long neglected yahoo mail. I was shocked when i was shown a new interface and my mailbox isn't full despite the 1475 unread mails. Wait a minute, 100mb of mail space? Wow! Plus the search mail functions even though my gmail has even more features! Plus the trash mails aren't counted into the mail quota. Woohoo. Having competition is good though Hotmail still sucks bigtime! Guess I would still be using back my yahoo account and continue to enjoy(not all the time) reading my friends' crappy forwarded mail.

Anyone who wants a gmail account, can just leave a msg here.

I have a real bad pms now. The feeling is like running around the stadium 10 times. The problem is I haven't been exercising for so many weeks. No exercise = pms attack increase 10 folds. I spend the whole noon wiggling on my bed in cold sweat and in great pain and almost wimphering to the phone when 2 agents called me up for interviews. It becomes so overwhelming that I vomitted out 2 dumplings that I ate for lunch. And I continued to wrench under torture for 2 more hours. I wished i could go to sleep but the stomach cramps was too much. Thought I could relieve when the cramps finally went away, nope, it was followed by a prolonged backache around my kidneys (i guess!) I never experience such pain and I thought the culprit must be the expired pill (USED to be my Holy Grail whenever such attack occurs) that I took. Guess I shall switched to hefty-priced Rose Prime Evening (whatever the name!)duh.

Posting one of pic taken while partying with my GB buddies in MUOnline. The four of us was there posing and trying out different emoticons until I realise we are in a straight line. Soon other elves saw us and joined the line. We all having one hell of great time laughing till my cheeks sore while trying to sychronise our actions for photo shoot. Somehow, we all don't the MO QI!

Miraculously, my lappy waked up when I tried switching it on after just returning home from a dinner date and pool games with ying, zenez and chaos at causeway point. I'm so so glad! Strangely I don't understand why it kept gaving me 11 beeps and followed by a blank screen each time i switched it on during noon. Giving me a scare. I better do soome backup.

While waiting for my laptop to go online (there was a problem connecting. It says username doesn't exist in the domain. DUH! Singtel suxs!), i went to play with Nvidia's setting, rotating my screen to see how it like. Then while switching to 90 degree, it hamged! I restarted it and was dismayed to realise it can't even load my OS but only let out 11 beeps. Sheesh! Even when i banged on the keyboards, it still doesn't work. Let the power run dry then restart, also can't work (it used to work last time)

I think it's time for my faith companion of 3 years to RIP. Maybe it's God's will becuase i have spent too much with it and neglecting my family.

I was still feeling damned bored despite the fact that for these few days, I have been out bugis-shopping with my mum, sis and my friends. Even retail therapy wouldn't cheer me up the way it would before. Could it be the fact that my jobless status is bringing me down especially since my friends who graduated with me are all working either happily or 'painfully' now. Sidetracked abit: My msn pal was asking me why do i choose such a sickening nick (a row of smiley and frown faces) and I said that explains my current mood. "Why Smiley?" - endless holidays. "Why frown?" - same answer. DUH...

Then again, I had a phone chat last midnight with a not-so-close friend who was a top student then in my JC class and she managed to cheer me up 'unintentionally'. She was telling me that she has quite a handful of offers from big companies but she turned them down, reasoning that their offer wasn't good enough though it sounds pretty OK to me. Look! Isn't $2200 as starting pay for graduate good enough but then of course she was saying that company is only willing to pay more for honour graduate and us(non-honours) staying in that company for long won't do us good! If i were in her shoes, I wouldn't have thought so far and would accept the job right away. And there's still many more reason why she turn the offers down which i won't mention here. The contrast is that while we are all waiting anxiously for any, just ANY call for interview, she has the luxury of fussing over the offers!

Anway I do actually have a job offer, somehow i turned it down becuase of its unattractive salary, While my another friend went for it last thursday meaning i'm the last person in my group without job, I started to regret my decision when my dad sorta say I should go for it to gain experiencee. Shrug. I told my 2 friends about the job and they agree with my decision. I am glad. My smarty friend manage to knock some sense into me and now i think all these weeks waiting for a RIGHT job is much worth for. I hope what she says turn true for me.

I know the moment when I've gotten a decent job, it's not going to be like now ever again. I will start to have monday blues, morning rush, boss-says-it-all etc. Now are the days which I should be enjoying to the fullest! So my mum and I start planning on holidays. Somehow, due to my dad work nature, we can only do 'last-minute-booking-style' and it's really hard to find a travel agency that has the immediate vacancy especially it's the peak season now. We combed the entire areas in Chinatown for all the agencies that we could find but still our efforts was futile. Taiwan, Japan, Australia, Indonesia are our choices and despite the wide choice, the earliest availability date that we could get is July. DUH.....oK then, no travelling. How about some outing? I texted almost all the people on my phone list even those long lost ones and almost none appears free/interested enough to get me off from boredom. One even says she's broke! I'm complaining!!! I hope MY won't get to read this entry too soon or else she will hagger me to have dinner with somebodies! I don't think i have the drive to meet some new friends cos now I'm in bad shape due to my gluttony. Yah, I'm one of those who thinks highly of first impression.

Anway, I haven been feeling less inclined to blog for some unknown reason recently. (I wanted to blog actually but everytime i switched on my laptop, my pointer will move uncontrollably over the MU icon.) Fortunately, I was skimming thru Xiaxue's blog (I still a vivid fan of her blog even though i stop reading hers when she join the singtel blog-contest) where I clicked on a source to play some bday piano pieces. It got on to me and that's why I'm here blogging this entry. Maybe next time when I commit such 'lazy-to-blog' crime, i should listen to piano pieces to get me into the mood to write.

I just found out i quite like chill out music. Click here and here to listen what I'm listening now.

This morning, I dreamed of my mum giving birth (At this age ?!?!?!?!) to a baby boy. And surprisely for me who never like kids at all, have fun cuddling him. He has a very cute way of giggling and that lighten me up for whatever reason. I remember holding up the baby's tiny foot up, so damn cute! It makes me wish that my mum should have given birth to my brother now rather than 16 years ago when I'm a jealousy brat whose world only contained my mum, the tv and my toys and no others!

This is what I have just finished for lunch.




My mum's Bobochacha



This morning, my friend was asking me whether i know cooking. I told him 'no, not even maggi noodle' and he replied 'that's serious! cos cooking was supposed to be essential on marriage resume' I never realise nowaday guys are still looking for gals who know how to cook. What era is now? That's absurb. Anyway I told him I'm looking for guy who's familiar with kitchen. And he said it's easy because nowaday, alot guys knows-how. That's what I thought! Why should i learn cooking then?

Nevertheless, I went to help my mum out at the kitchen. So I was stirring the pot of bobochacha until I sniffed some "chao4 da1" smell amidst the wonderful coconut milk fragrance. I shouted for my mum for SOS and mum found out that the bottom was charred! I really wasn't destined to be in kitchen. Anyway, the food still tastes yummy, leaving the charred part intact at the bottom of the pot. My mum ought to set up a stall selling this. Sure a hit.

Shrek 2 is fantastic, even though I can't remember much of Shrek 1 and 1.5 hours of happy momemts don't seem to worth my 6.5 buck or rather 13 bucks in total since i have to treat my sis. I gonna torture her if she ever complain about the show.

I have been quite lazy these days, not even continuing the previous entry and wanting to write more. I spent the entire evening to clean up only 1/3 of fridge and running back to tv whenever each advertisment run was over. Everything has been laggy just like in Gunbound. I wonder I'm under 'play-too-much-computer-game-effects' until my brain has gone slow.

Anyway on the past few days, i have been busy with work. Been like working at early morning 5 am to next day 6am nonstop. The GB BBQ outing on Sat was missed and MY told me she should have attended. Lesson learnt: Don't ever make firm statement that early. I still remember we did agree not to attend any of it.

Last Friday was the day where it's my first time that i caught sight of 3 black submarines at the navy open house. Impressed though btw do you know that Singapore only have 4 (small) submarines in total? Hm...Anyway, we took a long time to get into the naval base at Changi that day due to the checking and identification. Guess what, my dad kept some explosive item on his car, and they failed to sniff them out. So you think you're safe at such public event whereby security is being taken care of? Think twice. Hotels and shopping centres are places that are also very vulnerable. I often 'sneak' in and out without anyone spotting/stopping me beforehand.

Hm...how come i am talking of this. So outta point. But anyway, it alway been that way evidently.
