*sniff* I'm down with a cold, as usual. I'm always falling sick the first few weeks back home. Ugh. Must be the extreme changes in weather, loads of late nights and sleeping with my hair wet :( Bad bad, yes I know.
ABBA! It's playing on the CD my sister just burned and it's distracting me from any coherent thinking. So apologies for any weird sentences in this post.
Anyway, went for a FEAST yesterday! Had FREE FLOW of SASHIMI and good food! -beams- Get ready for a whole load of crappy pictures to emphasise my point. Hehe. XD
The restaurant. Didn't get to take pictures of the really tall backed chairs though. They were cool. But people came to sit on them before I could fish my camera out. It's called CLUB CHINOIS at Orchard Parade Hotel. That's the toothpick holder by the way XD
My first time eating oysters. Tasted kind of disgusting. It had this really raw taste. I thought the lemon juice tasted better.
The prawns were...crunchy? Hehe. Nice and red (: Yummy.
Interesting shaped fork.
A concoction of dim sums and sashimi. The char siew bao was really good!
Shark's Fin soup!
Shaun and Ee Ee! Candid shot. Haha.
The Santa contained Shaun's freshly squeezed mango juice. *slurp* It was nicer than Boost =P
Peking Duck? Methinks. Gobbled it down too fast to realise what it was. Haha.
The appetiser which I personally didn't like at all. And it came in the middle of the meal =.= Haha. Lost my appetite after this one.
Was too full by the time to enjoy the King Prawn. Didn't like the spicy sauce but it was presented well. Probably that's why I ate it all up despite feeling like I was going to burst any moment. Haha.
Horrid pose from the idiot. He was pretending to eat the sugar stick they gave for his coffee. It's this small stick with sugar on one end, something like "Mai Ya Tang", if you know what that is. And you stir it into your coffee till it dissolves and it actually took awhile to do so. Pretty cool. Denise commented that it's going to be a eons before they start drinking their coffee. Haha.
After that, battled the rain and the storm and MRT-ed down to City Hall to meet important people. Haha. Was kind of super late by the time I got there due to the lunch. And Gary's finally in Singapore! He has been wanting to come since 2003? Haha. Anyway, met up with him, Siew Ling, Steven and Hh. The gathering had shrunk loads since the good old days :( But I hope more people can make it when Vicky and TY comes down! At least Steven said he will make himself free. He'd better. Lol. Went to Suntec to have dinner after that. Not really sure what restaurant it is but the food was pretty bad I think. I said I think because I didn't eat. Haha. But it looked acks. Gary said the chicken wasn't nice at all. Surprisingly, the woman who came to clear our table asked him how come he didn't finish his chicken and he said that the chicken tasted a little uncooked and guess what? They gave him a $6 voucher to use on his next visit which he gave to Siew Ling. Lol. Then, we went upstairs to look at the Fountain of Wealth. And more pictures! Not alot though.
Us! Steven left before this photo was taken :(
Part of a Christmas tree. Pretty XD
Yay! The fountain is blue. Haha.
OHOH and here's what I saw at Jurong Point that day. Lol. Word of warning: Please do not laugh. It is NOT funny.
The four cute? Pokemons. LOL. And duh, Pikachu was the most likeable one. To those who don't know who or what Pikachu is, it's that yellow fat thing there.
Pikachu bounces around! Cute! *bob bob* A furry and fat Pikachu!
Meowth! That's right!
This is the new Pokemon which I really can't stop laughing at. LOL. Its supposed to be a kind of dog, by the way. Eww.
Okay, that's all folks!

Went to VivoCity with Qian, Weiqi and Weiqi's brother yesterday! Fun (: Drank BOOST! It's nice to drink it in Singapore cos it won't freeze your mouththroatcheeksandstomach! Yummy. I'm so lazy to upload pictures *yawn* maybe another day. Actually, just look at Qian's blog. She has all of them there. Lol. Hehe.
Rooted my butt to my bed today watching VCDs that Qian's mom lent me (: Now I'm addicted. Ahhh! But it's kind of the right time to get addicted anyway. Hehe. No more exams to worry about! Going out with three of them plus Meow tomorrow! Yay!! Shall take more pictures and learn how to bring my camera around and take random things. That's life. Life is great (: I feel like I'm promoting for Great Eastern *ahem*
I know it's rather early. But I shall sleep! Early for once. Or maybe I'm still operating in Melbourne time. Oh wells. Nothing much planned this week.
Nites!

Till we meet again, Dawn. Yes, till we meet again.
These four words had never been so important to me until two days ago. Five months back, it was repeated to me week after week, but I took it for granted. I never did reply to ask where or when. I just assumed that "hello" and "bye" would just be that simple, rountined weekly affair. Not anymore, I guess. I want to give you a big hug, a kiss, and tell you that I love you. I want to listen to all your stories and all your philosophical theories. I want to...
But all these shall wait. Wait for the day till we meet again.
It was a smoky, ding-dong, bell ringing, rhythmic affair. Not one word did I understand. Talked to people I never thought I would have. They once seemed so close, yet so far. But I guess the dam is broken and the water is flowing. Hopefully it stays this way.
Hmm, speaking of the flight, it was a plane full of Indians. I'm not being racist or anything but seriously, I've never seen so many Indians on a plane before. Haha. But the journey wasn't too bad. It's great being back in the scorching sun. It's great being able to throw on anything and walk out of the house, not fearing if disastrous weather lies ahead.
Okay, I'm tired. Look forward to meeting all the busy A level people when their exams end. Everyone in the house is sleeping except me.

The past few nights had been late ones. Sleeping at 3 or 4am and waking up near lunchtime. Oh well. Never had such screwed sleeping hours before. Thank God my papers are all in the afternoon if not I'd just be sleeping through all of them or something.
Last, LAST, did you hear me? I said LAST paper tomorrow! Am I excited or what. Haha. And it's the worst paper on earth. My brain can't take anymore input of memory work! Human Resource Management, Decision Making, Operations Management and Marketing, so not me. Haha. Probably only marketing is okay, the rest is bleh. Didn't bother practising much essay questions either. Not like the same one will come out. I need more brain power! Someone loan me some brain cells for tomorrow. Oh come on, just for tomorrow and I'll return it ASAP. Heh. How I wish.
Have so many things planned on my "to-do" list for after exams. But I can't wait to go back either! Haha. In 25 hours, everything will be OVER. My answer script handed it, my marks determined. But having good marks, that's a different case.
I'm starting to absolutely HATE the weather. It's pouring outside and it's supposed to be summer? Maximum temperature of 14 degrees today! C'mon! That's winter lah! What on earth. It rains for 5 mins. Stops. Rains again for another 5 mins a few horus later. Stops. The cycle goes on with utterly cold wind blowing in your face. Ugh. Ack. I think I'd rather be back in hot, humid Singapore. Guess what. It's pouring AGAIN. Hrmph.
Maybe I should really get back to keeping my brains filled with management. Tata.

Oh by the way qian, my SISTER wishes you 生日快乐 too! She's excited that your birthday is so close to hers. By the way, she typed those chinese words. Lol. Someone update on the cake and Qian Vodka session. HAHA.

One down, one more to go! Macroeconomics paper yesterday wasn't too bad. But I ain't confident about it either. Sigh. I went in and came out feeling nothing at all. It didn't feel as if I went for an exam at all. Someone please stress me for my management exam! Knowing that it's nine long days away, I really don't feel like studying for it just yet. But considering the wonderful amount of content that we covered during semester, now is probably the right time to start.
Just went to see a course advisor and re-enroled for uni next year. Can't stand the system as it is cos I can't drop commerce at the moment! Ugh! She said I must wait till after the 7th of Decemeber. That's such a long time! RAWR.
Anyway, can't wait to get back homeeee!! I'm thinking of going home like every single day. Sigh. A few weeks more! Yay (:
I need to study and stop procrastinating.
