Ctax UAT testing

2009-07-15T21:58:00.004+08:00

I have been involved in this Ctax UAT testing (a software used by PWC corporate tax) since 1 July till 16 July...Quite shiok cos we basically need to test all functions of the software and to report any error..Somemore no need to worry to charge time!!

Me, Pili and Anesia were selected to be the testers....we had so much fun during the testing.....Anesia is an Indonesian...but understand mandarin...so me n Pili sometimes will use direct translation to english which Anesia dun understand wat are we trying to say...but she certainly learnt alot of new chinese words...like kuazhang...Wu di (无敌)...but all not proper words...

We took pics together since its so nande to sit in a partner's room (vacant temporarily)and chit chat like nobody's business...open music loud loud n sing along...cracking lots of lame joke...

Acting a partner...Call me partner wanna be?

Acting busy...hoho

Anesia - The lady gaga in the room...She is responsible to play all english songs after lunch and me play all chinese songs before lunch...and everyday without fail we will hear Poker Face in the room...

Road trip with Tess and her frens

2009-06-13T14:22:00.000+08:00

Took half day to join Tess and her frens for half day road trip on friday....Supposed to join for their 3 days outing..JB-Malacca-KL...but i promised to go to Anson's wedding dinner on sunday...so end up din get to join the 3 days tour...

Reached JB at 3pm...then joined them as special guest appearance for half a day...Went to have Seafood with them at Senibung, Permas Jaya...Ate the most food ever that day...We ordered Nestum prawns, Salted egg crabs, sambal long beans, black pepper ostrich, crispy fried sotong and Lalas....total bill abt Rm250...Not so bad to be shared by 8 of us...but we cant finished the food!! So they think of a game to finish these food...end up..i ate the most...stomach gonna burst haha

Next, we went to Neway for KTV....10 of us~ Wow big group..and our package includes buffet dinner!! So we have to EAT AGAIN.....i think Neway is really not bad man...the variety of food is really alot...even have a chef there to make sushi for us....each person only pay for about RM50 and we get to eat, and sing for 4 to 5 hrs....it was quite fun but too big group...and the room is too big...but overall not bad la...

Thereafter, we went to eat AGAIN...supper at somewhere near Eden...to eat Kway Teow Kia..Many of them cant take it anymore as they have been eating since morning.....its really a FOOD TRIP not a road trip hahaha the day ended with me gg to Dolce to celebrate my meimei bf's 21st bday...it was quite boring as the crowd there were really too young!! Average of 21 years old...feel so old there man...but no choice, since invited must show face..but it was fun to see those young ladies flirting with ugly and old man there....keep laughing by looking at them doing some dirty dances...left the place at abt 2.30am...seh....think will nv step in Dolce again..Cabana is more suitable for old lady like me haha

Anyway i had a fun day with Tess and frens....wait for her to send me the pics b4 i upload here then..

Fun to name a baby

2009-06-09T21:17:00.001+08:00

Benji's wife has delivered the baby boy on 4 June 2009!~

I was asking him how is he gg to name his boy...He suggested some names which will make his son being mocked by his classmates later by giving him diff nickname...just like my name, always laughed by others or pronounced wrongly by other ppl...

I suggested the combination of his name and his wife's...but dun sound food....my name and his name combination sounds better....he was saying...dunno how will his wife react if he knows that he names his son using another woman's name...ok better dun be silly and mess ard with married guy...

But the process of naming a kid is really fun.. I shall name my kids starting with the alphabet X,Y,Z next time hehe

Anyway this is just a random post...hoho

Today is my didi's bday!~ Happy Birthday Benety!!~

KTV with Wen and Jerome

2009-06-05T22:35:00.004+08:00

I realise i really damn long nv update...Paiseh paiseh...been busy with other ppl's stuff and busy chasing my dramas hehe

So i went to the long awaited KTV with Wen and the singer of AQH, Jerome...we have been arranging for mths and it is finally materialised!~

Supposed to be a PK for us with Jerome....but once he started to sing....we feel like we are listening to a concert...damn nice la!!!~ But when he sang out of key (ok only once), me and Wen keep laughing at him....damn bad..

The highlight of the ktv was when we started to feel bored by those emo songs....Jerome started to sing those 'high songs' like Jay's Mr Magic and Wen started singing Xiao Zhu's songs like 撑腰 and all of us started to imitate how they dance in the MV!! Look at Jerome's face when doing those actions, me n Wen cant stop laughing! Then me and Wen sang another song by xiao zhu , 狐狸精 together and its really quite awful...Jerome was saying its the most awful song that he has ever heard..Wen said we are now the 狐狸精 jiemei....yeah dun sound good but who cares...

Great company, good entertainment, good times, good atmosphere..wat else can we ask for?
Me and Wen's jaws are damn pain after the 4 hrs KTV session but we had a good laughing session as well!~

Nice outing!~ Lets arrange such outing again more regularly k~

Photos time!~

Wat pose is this?

Jerome singing emo songs...

Me and Wen...best frens...

So happy to sing with us? We knew it...

Its time to act cute!~

Silly version of Meteor Garden?

Funny poses again??

Finally a proper pic together hehe

Last pic with Fahrenheit but i closed my eyes!!!

Thats all for my updates hehe Wen...as promised...i blog abt this outing hehe

Quick updates

2009-05-26T20:30:00.002+08:00

Ok before i continue to blog abt my Japan trip....Just a quick update of wat have i done after my Japan trip and exam...

During my exam leave, when i am stressed..i always love to eat....on my sis bf's bday.....i ate three cakes....

One durian cake...i ate at least a quarter....then i bought another durian roll from Goodwood Park Hotel....shared 4 pieces with my sis n her bf..and i finished the whole thing....we bought another chocolate cake from hotel too...and i finish half!! Now u know how much did i eat!! Pics below....

Then after my exam....i went for a ‘high-class’ concert on the 1st Sat of May with Eik Chyun and Wen. Chyun's husband bought the tix but cant make it...so chyun sponsored both of us....hehe

The funniest part is Wen dun even know wat concert is it then just join us haha
The concert was titled “Faust” and was performed by Singapore Symphony Orchestra together with Singapore Symphony Chorus, Singapore Bible College Chorale, Hallelujah Chorus, Singapore Symphony Children’s Choir & 4 other vocalists, each performing their role as a mezzo-soprano, tenor, bass & bass-baritone. (kop-ed from Wen's blog cos i dunno details abt the concert)

As i always dun appreciate such concert...its an eye opening experience for both me n wen....heng i nv sleep during the concert...if not sure paiseh...we saw some jokers actually sleep all the way in the hall!! WTH man...pay for it and sleep inside? Crazy...Their vocalist quite entertaining but they sang in French? So most of the time we have to look at subtitle b4 we know wats gg on...

We were taking photos b4 the concert but kena caught....well..i still secretly took a few haha
Nice outing with gers esp after concert we went to HK cafe to chit chat till midnight....topic is all ard marriage...as Chyun's wedding is coming soon...me n wen are the appointed as the jiemeis....so excited...to think abt how to play the bridegroom can make me high all night....haha

Wen and Chyun....Secretly took this hehe

Choir and band standing by...

A week later....i went to the new shopping center, Iluma at Bugis with my jiejie , her bf and my didi...we were attracted to the displayed food of a Japanese restaurant...which is the huge ice cream....so tempted to try...after eating one set of main course...we actually ordered the ice cream!! Each is meant to be shared for 4...but we ordered 2!!! Tats big and fattening la!!

See the pics below make me drool....damn ex also la...S$20 for the ice cream..and i finished like 3/5 of it...My sis n didi was amased by the amount of food i ate that day....i guess i must have gained alot of weight after tat!! But really nice!! U all shud try too hehe

After tat...on Mother's day...its my cousin's wedding...at beijing lou at Sutera Mall....very nice place...with huge stage...they hired a live band to perform too...to my horror...the lead singer of the band is the ger who PK with me when i sang Ni Zui Zhen Gui with my cousin last time...so she is like a part time live band singer...no wonder sing so much better than me la...so sick la....

My cousin quite romantic....they danced and sang a duet on stage...can see he really put in alot of effort...

Next, the following week..met up with Shawn and Yun feng for Feng's farewell...as he is gg to Taiwan to work soon...Busy day...we went to KTV at Neway for lunch , 2 hrs for Rm20 with food...super cheap...then we went to watch movie, Angel and Demon...not bad show...then we went to have early dinner...thereafter played bowling at Leisure mall...OMG my skills cannot make it la...damn low score...then we went to senibung for supper....long long day....Anyway wish u all the best Yun Feng!!~

Went to attend my mgr's wedding last fri...the chinese host is a joke man....when they were on stage for toasting...she was saying we shud yum seng for them loudly...so that the 贵子就会生出来了...wat kind of description is it? hahahahhahaa we were laughing non stop la....i know very bad,,,but cant help...

Another Assistant manager's wedding on 14 June...at Fullerton....super atas hor...looking forward to it...meaning that i am very broke also...so i have been super anti social for the past 2 weeks....nv goout at all..bobien..

Then i was chasing Boys over Flower everyday after work too...F4 (korean version) is so so so shuai!!! Taiwan n Japan version cannot compare at all lo...

Basically....i like 3 out of 4....cant decide which one i like most yet.....but they are all damn young la...sad....

This pis so cute..

The very shuai version of Dao Ming Si

Hua Ze Lei....OMG.....so so shuai!!!

He is at the same age as my didi...born in 1989...OMg so young!! I like his smile and dimple!~

I like this pic so much!! Its the background photo of my pc in office....so bai nen nen ...i like!!

Thats all for my updates.......will update again when i am more free ba....hehe

The walk around the upper precincts is a pleasant day hike. It also makes for a delightfully eerie stroll in the late afternoon and early evening, when the various graveyards and miniature shrines along the path take on a mysterious air.

No wonder its called the most expensive country in the world!! This is the 1st time where I feel poor everyday when I am in overseas…I din get to buy any clothes or bags there cos the price is ridiculous…one simple dress or top can cost S$80 ….somemore no brand…suan liao….

WARNING!! A lot a lot pics in this post….so sure very lag…I know many will say…why upload all….just choose some highlights….but my blog serves as my dairy…if too little pics…then I will not remember all the wonderful memories liao….so If u r bored….Just skip this post ba…hahahaha

Here we go..Join me in my 2 weeks journey in Japan!!!

Day 0 - 31 March 2009 (Tuesday) – SQ 638 Airlines A380 - 11.40pm Singapore Changi Airport to Narita Airport (Tokyo)

B4 we fly…@ Changi Airport

Our A380…1st time on SIA…so excited!!

Breakfast of the day at 4am plus….ZZzzZZZ…the smoked salmon damn salty…end up din finish it..damn wasted..

Window seat..WooHOo!!

=====================================================================

Day 1 - 1 April 2009 (Wednesday) – Reached Narita Airport at 07:50am

Yonbanchi - Path of Philosopher哲学之道- Ginkakuji 銀閣寺 - Yasaka-jinja八坂神社, Maruyama Park円山公園- Gion District祇園 - Yonbanchi

From Narita, take Narita Express to Tokyo Station…then we Exchanged JR pass – bought in Singapore for 7 days…Can use it to take Shinkansen (bullet train)..It costs us S$426!!! Damn ex….Their transport is really damn ex la! No choice…if go there nv take bullet train like so fei….so we still bought it since our trip is not really those backpack budget trip…

Then reserved seat to take bullet train from Tokyo to Kyoto (京都)…it takes abt 3 hrs to reach there which is very fast…we asked for left side of the seat so that we can spot Mt Fuji…end u the person gave us left side but not window seat…me n Lee Ling have to sit separately also…the worst thing is, we din get to see Mt Fuji!! Damn suay…then there is this funny incident…

The guy sat next to me on the bullet train…forgot to bring down his laptop n document with him when he alight two stops b4 us…so careless….then I try to get the Japanese lady for help as I dun think their crew speaks English….but end up the lady gg to alight soon too…Lee Ling was sleeping at that time…me being brave and kaypo…walk all the way to their crew room…to look for the staff….apparently…they dun understand me although I tried to use hand language and my jap is really BAD!! So I pekcek….i use finger say….come…follow me….then when he saw the laptop…he finally get wat I mean…faint…

The laptop got the owner’s name…..i am so stupid hor….shud just keep it with me when I saw it…but teacher said we must be honest….must 拾金不昧 and should物归原主…so I did a good deed on the very first day when I reach Japan….looking at how thankful the crew and the next passenger when they know I am so kind and keep saying aligatou gozaimasu to me…makes so feel so happy and wanna fly hehe
first day in Japan….so cold…about 7 degrees…then I realize my converse jacket cant keep me warm at all…luckily I got bring shawl plus glove…so for the next few days u will see me wearing the same jacket everyday although I do change my clothes everyday hehe

Once we reached Kyoto…we took a cab to our 1st accommodation in Japan, Yonbanchi…its actually a traditional Japanese house…quite old….book it online…the husband is a french and the wife is a Japanese. But when we were there, the husband Divyam not around…so his wife entertained us…but she can speak English…..hehe
http://www.yonbanchi.com/

The cab there is abt 2000 plus yen….which is close to S$40….journey only abt 15 mins….now u know how ex is the transport n things there ya…

Show the pics of the house later…Its small and our room is upstairs….we have to climb a very steep staircase to go to our room…it’s the STEEPEST staircase that I have ever seen…everyday I am worrying that I may just fall down frm the stairs…so dangerous…I had a tough time to bring up my luggage too..

We forgot that it’s a shared toilet…which is at the backyard of the house and the toilet is freaking cold!!! Everyday we were shivering after shower and faster ran back to our room to get some warm frm the heater….at least we experience how traditional Japanese house is like after 2 nights there…

After we pack some of our stuffs….the owner, Yasuko drove us to Ginkakuji 銀閣寺which is nearby as our 1st stop…wah tired to type all that..i shall explain all in pics caption….

Narita Express

2nd breakfast…..very disgusting green tea white chocolate bagel….and green tea..

Shinkansen!!!

Sg must queue here also must queue…hehe

Met this Angmoh, Martin from Australia…he was there backpack alone for 3 weeks!! Damn shiok…he is working inter continental hotel in Australia…he got dimples too…nice to meet him…Angmohs more daring than us to backpack alone!!! Wow…

Its really moving very fast….faster than mrt of cos…but I think same feeling as bullet train in Taiwan leh…no diff…..anyway good and ex experience hehe

This is the laptop left behind by a business man with a yellow folder…I should have brought it back to Sg!!

Finally reached Kyoto!!

Cute astro boy and me hehe

Their taxi stand…damn clean

Inside the cabbie

Somewhere near Yonbanchi

Philosophy’s path before Gingakuchi..SakurA!!!

Not full blossom yet..

Japanese lian and beng haha

Admission fee 500 yen

All made of sand…damn nice…

Looks like coffin but that’s where they drink tea…

Their toilet….so 古色古香hor…

Must stamp for fun hehe

Lunch or dinner for the day…Pork Katsu…not bad

Green tea ice cream outside the temple…from reviews, they say the green tea ice cream sold outside all Kyoto temples are all super nice….really nice!!! 250 yen or S$4++…cheapest so far

Outside the sakura park

Its actually a video of my trying to ring the bell…..

Sakura viewing at night..its the only park with night view of sakura tree..

They use the real wood as charcoal to light up the lamp to serve as a heater

Clearer here.

===========================================================================

No more exam!!!

2009-05-01T03:35:00.001+08:00

Yoz...I am back!!! From Japan and my last CPA Australia paper is finally over!! but i am not happy at all cos i am not confident at all for this paper...really hope can pass lo...

Will squeese some time to update on my Japan trip...or something else...if not i guess i will have no more readers ya...so stay tuned...shud update it very soon!!! Updates of my Japan trip in draft mode...only wrote for Day 1 to 4 already spent 5 hrs...i doubt i can finish up till 14 days after i start work on next monday...i try my best ba...

Next monday will back to work after so long....one mth nv work liao...except one day bck to office for training..another day for performance feedback appaisal...to be exact...i got abt 4 months nv do tax computation liao cos i was seconded to advisory for 3 mths...hope i wont make any major mistake when i back to work ba... Ciao...Tired...

Just to announce that..I AM BACK...TIME TO PARTY!!!

Announcement - Yokoso Japan!! Sakura...i am coming!~

2009-03-31T19:41:00.006+08:00

In a few hours time...i will be flying off to my dream land and home country of Koko on SQ380.....To see Sakura!!! As mentioned in my previous post, my best fren jio me to go Japan for a free and easy trip...so we booked the air tix in Jan 2009!! So busy planning for the itinery for this trip and many discussions btw me n Josephine to work things out...

This is a very low profile trip as i din expect this trip to be that fast!! I din really tell many frens except for a few close frens as i am sick of hearing ppl saying that i am rich la...bla bla bla...sick of it....I know this 4th overseas trip within a month is really crazy with an interval of 3 mths only....i report to Changi Airport every 3 mths....like a routine work for me..But it doesn't mean that i am rich...i am merely spending all my savings away and i have zero savings in my bank account k!!!

Will be off for two weeks..then back to office for training for performance feedback report and i will be off for my exam and study leave again...it sounds crazy to go on a 2 weeks trip just b4 my exam....but once i miss it..dunno when can i ever step there without joining a tour....so i dun care...just join my fren then...

30 April...Last CPA Australia paper in my life...and also LAST EXAM in my LIFE!! Hopefully once i miss it...no more exams!!!

Also there wont be any overseas trip in 2009 till mid 2010...unless there are some surprises trip like this one.....really have no spare money to go on another trip man...

Will be travelling to Kyoto, Osaka, Hakone and Tokyo in 2 weeks time...and will be meeting Koko's younger brother there.....since Koko not there, i will meet his didi then (although i din know him b4 this trip)....Think i really have no fate with Koko...Better stop dreaming!! Hope i can really enjoy myself there....

I dunno when will i update again since after the trip i will be busy starting my revision....really slack for this paper so must really work hard b4 the exam...

On a side note, its Monica's bday today...Happy Birthday ger!~

Cya!~

SAKURA!! HERE I COME

Maybe i should dance para para sakura under the sakura tree in a park?? haha LAME... hehe

SAYONARA!!!!

Breakers again

2009-03-16T21:01:00.003+08:00

So i have to drink again...Maybe i started to feel seh liao...so anyhow call their names...Polly becomes Jolly, YaFen i called her Elphan...so end up i drank like 8glasses of beer....i was feeling abit giddy liao..then i ask why Beer also can make ppl drunk....then Polly told me tat its not pure beer! Its mixed with Bacardi! No wonder i feel seh la....so long nv feel seh liao....kind of miss the feeling haha

After the drinking session, Kimmo already quite seh....another ger even got asthma attack...so we went ahead to have supper b4 heading home..Michael followed our car as he saw Kimmo so seh abit worried....he was siting at the front seat and me sitting atthe back...Kimmo insisted to drink although he was damn drunk....I was super worried that i may die that day haha so Dangerous la!

Looking back to wat i did for the year 2008.....i cant really recall actually unless i go n read back all my entries in 2008...not so free now...

I think the most unforgetable one will be

1. Met Typhoon in Taiwan during my second trip in September 2008
2. Completed 1st 10km marathon
3. Travelled overseas for three times within 6 mths.... June - taiwan for 2 weeks, September - taiwan again for 1 week and December - Korea for one week....for the whole year, i have spent 1 month overseas...this is cool...also means that i am damn broke la!!

Times are bad but i will still go ahead with my oveases plan when i am young....wish for a better new year ahead...all the best to ya guys too...

Happy 2009!!~

On the way there..

Opposite our hotel..

After a short ferry rise...we were there!! The tour guide only gave us 30 mins....and said no matter how we walk...we will be touring the whole island ..so we decided to walk the opposite side....

Back view...

They gave Xmas hat to kids....but they still gave us? we look too kiddo la hehe

The hat blocked half my eye...holding the snow / ice with bare hand is crazy....hand felt super numb after that...Like ice kacang...hehe

Fake Korean, Ryan..

After 20 mins...we realised we walked on the wrong trail....then i saw our grp tourmate....i went to that uncle and asked...where is my Bae Yong Jun?? The uncle looked puzzled...then his 14 year old Jay alike kid answered me that its 5 mins away from there....but we got no time to go back...DAMN SAD!!! How can i not to take pic with him!! Damn wasted...but bobien...haiz..one of the regret for this trip

Squirrel of Korea!!

Too tall to go in..

All of us dun understand why is there an extra 9 after the 2009!!! Weird!!

Even the fountain is frozen...its super slippery there..a ger fell in front of MY and her face n mouth were bleeding...scary....so i have decided not to go in there to take pic..

Ugly pic..

On the way back

Act you yu..

Next, we proceed to Chunchoen to have lunch....its the place where winter sonata also filmed there...

Nice lunch!! We have to fry this with Udon or rice cake....

Finally get to take a pic with Bae Yong Jun!!

After lunch...we proceed to Mt Sorak, the highest summit of South Korea

You see snow everywhere there...and damn slippery...

We have to walk all the way up to see the buddha....damn dangerous...i almost fell...for many times in fact...luckily Kaleen is my left hand and Ryan is my right hand to hold me tight all the while like lao fuo ye the empress...if not i cant imagine...they are saying i am learning to walk there haha bobien my boots too slippery...heng Ryan din bring gf along...if not how do i survive without my right hand there...he is the photographer for thr trip too...everyone solazy to take out glove to take pic haha

===========================================================================

Day 4 – 26 December 2008 (Boxing day) – Ski-ing day

On the way to Yongpyong ski resort

After we rent the ski-jacket…went for lunch….took out the jacket outside….so very ugly here…they dun allow us to choose colour…but I insisted I wan pink,,,end up they gave me red….!@$#@@##

Din take any pics during the ski-ing cos if we fall down…may spoil our camera..so none of us took camera there!! Haiz..Heng got kevin help us take throughout the thing…so we bought the pics from him..

Fav pic for the day…so hard to stand straight!!

Solo

I salute him…he fell down for at least more than 10 times…still looking cool and stand up and ski again…

After the whole thing, I must admit that I really very bad at ski-ing!!! I fell down for at least 5 times and everytime its so hard to stand up…I am really so stupid la..the rest of them agak agak know how (except Jeffrey and me) but everytime I have to struggle to stand up and bring the equipment on the uphill and try again…the things are damn heavy la..at least 20kg I feel…luckily got my right hand Ryan and my Kevin to help me to bring It up…

Oh ya…I super suay la..there was once I manage to get up by myself and try to balance myself….suddenly a small kid fell down from behind and bang onto me…I really fell from the back…damn pain la…I was so innocent u know…..the pain was unbearable so my tears dropped on the spot…Kevin got shocked and helped me to stand up….he asked me how old am i..in fact iam 24 but he is only 23…even younger….hehe then the locals there very bad also…

I fell down and asked for help..he looked at me and walked away…WTH man..maybe he dun understand English…whatever…I was so scared that I may sprained my ankle so most of time I was left alone downhill to practice on my own.. =( but it’s a new experience la..we rent the goggle for nth too…we din wear it at all times…

After the ski-ing…we were really tired…so went for dinner and go back to rest..
We even very lazy to take pic of the hotplate for dinner…its all mushrooms and beancurd..the most awful ever…while we look at other ppl…got crab, fish and other meat…maybe ppl paid for 2000 plus for the trip tats why got better dinner then..

======================================================================

Day 5 – 27 December 2008 – Kimchi –making and shopping..

They brought us to this Yeoju Premium Outlet…which is selling those off season branded stuff…I din get to buy anything for the past few days..so I anyhow buy a pair of adidas shoe and Li Ching they all bought Levis there..

Lunch for the day..

The lean pork is nice!

This is the best! Bibimbup….colour nice…and really very nice!!

Next is kimchi-making!

Super blur…regret for not checking after the uncle took for us..haiz…if not will be perfect..

We r the masters of kimchi?

The outcome is like rubbish haha but we din get to bring it back to sg.. =(

Next we proceed to wear Hanbook and take pic….super rush la…anyhow wear and take pic and go…hate it..

Liching and Zhang Gong Gong

Stupid Jeffrey call me palace maid..i think I am ugly too…too pale..

Da Chang Jin?

They took the pic with the driver without me!! I was in the toilet then..shit man…
Tats all..

Next its finally shopping time!! We get to got to their famous shopping area – Myeongdong….its really a shopping paradise!! But too little hrs again!! Hate to join tour…everything rush rush rush…heng we manage to buy our laneige products there…at least not a wasted trip…

Our dinner…jap food…not bad

Next , we took cable car to Seoul Tower to see night scenery of the whole Seoul…

Teddy bear Xmas tree!!

They just cant stop laughing when they see my pose…wats wrong?

Am I too heavy so the chair break into half?

My camera lens is dirty…one more..many korean ppl mistaken Ryan as a local there and keep approaching him to help them take pic in korean haha

Nice view

Can u see the locks behind us…this place is famous for couples to buy a lock to lock their love here…and throw their key down…so that their heart will be linked together…Meng Yeow bought one to lock Li Ching up…but forgot to throw the key away…so the key is with him…hmm…be careful haha me n Kaleen din know..if not may just buy n play for fun…maybe I can try to lock me n koko together? Second regret for the trip man…

This pic super ghostly!!

Back to next hotel…too tired as it’s a long day..

Day 6 – last day -28 December 2008

Next..they brought us to The Face Shop….Which we bough quite a lot of stuff and very cheap!! And we went to the ginseng shop…not very interested in it as its damn ex

Me and Kevin…he is super helpful lo…and shy…so cute..but he cant understand English…too bad

Group photo with the tour guide…Hao De Yong…from Shan Dong..from far can see his fat belly…we dun like him…the moment he starts to tok in the bus…we will sleep…so boring!

Both Ryan and Jeffrey’s eyes are so so small…..so Korean haha they are cousins anyway..

Then we proceed to the president’s palace…

Super cold that day… -10? And yet skinny Kevin was wearing so little!!

Can Ryan open ur eyes when u take pic with us? Haha

Kevin looks so small behind him haha

=========================================================================
Overall…the trip is ok except for the tour guide…just tat too little days and too little shopping time…din have time to buy souvenirs also…so this time round not many ppl will get souvenir…paiseh…

Happy that we get to know a real Korean…I still keep in touch with him via email….will really miss him…his name is quite funny la…Kevin Woo Lam Park…I wanna laugh when I see that….oki very bad…well…bought the photos from him cos he is just working part time and earn his living by selling photos…

He is kind enough to upload the pics on his website but too small and he collated all…here are the pics from his web…including pics of other members..

The rich family with the ski-master…damn small la the pic..

How much – Pi Sa Yo
Too expensive – O Ma Yo
Miss – Akashi?? I forgot..
I love u – Sa Rang He Yo
Thank u – Kam Sa Ha Mi Da

Haha tats all…I think I will go back to Korea again but not so fast…maybe in Autumn and I gg to do more shopping! Din really get to know them well during the trip...lesson learnt....nv go overseas with couples as u will definitely be neglected....luckily got Ryan to entertain us...Hope to know them better after the trip then...

On a side note...i dun like Korean Air too...we dun have individual TV and the air-stewardess are not really helpful too...and my winter jacket is really very good...i feel warm when i wear it....relaly worth the money...luckily i din dirty it...if not my siblings will scold me like hell as we share the jacket together hehe...I really love winter cos i very scared of hot...not so scared abt cold...Kaleen was carrying heat pad all the time and keep complaining cold...she cant even take out her glove to take pic for us...so conclusion, i am the one who not so scared of the coldness for the entire trip....but too bad din get to see falling snow...nvm...shall plan another trip again to see falling snow in Japan? or maybe China? cos cheaper mah haha

Anyway...my frens are twins!! but becos the brother now grow fatter...we r able to differentiate them haha how we know each other also very funny....when i was in secondary sch (during the lianz time), almost everyday after sch n tuition, i will go to the shopping center near my hse, Plaza Pelangi the arcade to play DDR...U know...dance dance revolution?? we used to be the dancing queens there....adn i know the guys there...so i get to play for free....my frens also go there quite regular...so somehow they come and get to know us after seeing us dancing a couple of times..Now if u ask me to play DDR...i dun think i can...cos i am heavier now and i really cant dance unless i am drunk haha

Surprises made my day

2008-12-11T07:15:00.005+08:00

Can i call it a shocking day for 10 December 2008??

1st surprise of the day

Back to office after MC...shocked to see a 'bouquet' of flower on my desk...3 red roses standing bouquet with a card....

"Some flowers to brighten up your day! Good job in completing your Marathon. ;)"

A big big surprise....i was guessing who is the one who sent me the flowers as i din really tell others that i am gg for Marathon other than some close frens and my blog readers...the 1st person who came to my mind is Fion Pei Wen..cos she sent me coffee bean pastries and donuts to my office b4 on my bday....SMS-ed her but she said its not her....then i cant think of anyone else...cos the card nv leave any name and even put my full name - Anthrea Tan...

They are saying could be my boss congratulate me for completing it..but so many of us completed it...cannot be from my boss...so answer finally revealed...its new fren, Yun Feng who sent me the flowers....thanks alot!! But hor...u send red roses so 暧昧 leh...haha

2nd surprise

My secondary best fren, Lee Ling msned me...telling me that she is planning for a 10 nights trip to Japan in April 2009, asked if i am interested to join...OMG...i always wanted to find kakis to go Japan...now there is a chance!! But i told my mum that next year i wont be gg any overseas trips cos i wanna save money for my Europe trip in year 2010...but i am so tempted to go!! Budget for the trip is S$5k!! Wah...where to get such huge amount? Maybe i must go n rob bank leh...Any sponsor out there??I am really very keen to go...if i am really gg....i wanna meet up with KOKO, my dream guy if possible....still waiting for my mum's approval and permission la..then must see if i got enough leave and see whether it clashes with my last CPA Aus paper...i really hope i can go man...pray hard..if i am gg...i will cut down all the unneccessary expenses like KTV, good food...eat grass everyday to really save up for the trip....hehe

3rd surprise - the most shocking one

MSN with Benji (Kimmo - our common ah beng fren from riverside)..

Benji : Oi!
Me : Wat?
Benji : Tell u something..
Me : Wat again...u getting married? (just making a wild guess)
Benji : Ar...how u know..
Me : Pls....no kidding...ITS NOT FUNNY..
Benji : Its true leh...fuck...on 21 Jan 09..
Me : OMG!! Tell me its not true!! BTW why is it on a wed?
Benji : Its true la!! No choice leh...its a good day...set already
Me : Shotgun r? Are you inviting me?
Benji : How you know? Who told you she pregnant? Anyway everything u guess is correct!
Me : OMG!!!!!!! How long have u been with her?
Benji : Only 4 months plus....
Me : Why u so careless!!

OMG!!!!! I just cant believe that he is getting married!! Suddenly got the feeling like...the guy is getting married but the bride is not me...有一种。。"新郎结婚了，可是新娘不是我"的感觉..dunno why i suddenly feel sad...i feel that this kind of marriage wont be happy one...cos they are forced to get married..Sad...one less guy to flirt with me next time...i still cant accept the truth...this is the biggest surprise of the day!! Actually i am not surprise that ppl like him will have shotgun marriage...but just din expect him to be the 1st one...i am still thinking if i should attend his wedding....maybe not...i scared i am too sad leh...see how...

4th surprise

Met up with Ting and Wen for dinner at PS....

Ting passed me my belated bday present and even baked chocolate brownie for us...so sweet of her..so long nv see her le...still as pretty as ever...lets meet up soon again k!~

I think i guess things quite accurately....too much surprises within the same day...i need to calm down.....breathe in breathe out...i need sometime to cool down...

Oh ya...as requested by Wen, i have shifted my tagboard so that she can tag me easily...she was complaining that she has to scroll all the way down to find my tagboard...so no excuse now!! Tag me frm now on!! haha anyway for my music list...i still din manage to shift it up...teach me next time k..

Anyway its my jie jie's birthday today...Happy Birthday to Daphne!~ Enjoy ur day with the durian cake from me and your bf!~
