Birthday Party.




Current Mood: Tired
Current Song: JJ Lin - 殺手 (Killer)

Watched 2 more movies today with PlueExodus. Had Tonkichi for lunch. Definitely the best japanese food in Singapore!! Love the crispy crumbs and the tartar sauce.






Ratatouille

I love this cartoon. Definitely worth the money to watch.

Rubbish movie. I love how the story starts but i hate the ending and the progress of the movie. I do not think this movie is worth the money. I would rather spend it on ratatouille again.

I went to celebrate Brian's Birthday over at Oriental Hotel. The hotel had nice interior design!! Simple and Classic. I think I'm sick and bored with chinese food. That is why i think the dinner was average. Happy Birthday Brian!!

Oh yeah!! On my way to the hotel, the taxi driver had a conversation with me. This is by far the first taxi driver that hate singapore or would comment bad things about Singapore. Here goes-

Me: Uncle, Oriental Hotel please. It is the one at the Raffles Place right?
*I forgot the text that my sister had sent it to me. So I made sure it was the correct hotel and the correct location.*
Driver: Yah. It is the one where the National Day Parade was. You know?
Me: Eh.. No?
Driver: You don't know ah? Then that means you're not singaporean ah?
Me: I'm Indonesian.
Driver: OO Indonesian. Then, you stay at Oriental Hotel ah?
Me: No. I'm just going for a dinner birthday party.
Driver: Your friends ah? The food nice or not?
Me: No. It's my cousin's birthday party and I don't know the food nice or not.

When driving towards the Plaza Singapura area, he started talking again.
Driver: Look at Singapore. Singapore is so fucking rubbish ah!!
Me: Why?
Driver: Look at those museums and the stuffs that they put it on display on the right side of the road. So fucking rubbish
Me: eh. mmm -.-

Upon reaching marina there.
Driver: Oh my god. Over here also can kena jam one ah?
Me: ....
Driver: Look at the road. One road split into two. Stupid government will make these kinds of thing. No wonder jam la. Every car is so kiasu want to go first.
Driver: You know what kiasu is?
Me: Yah.
Driver: Singaporean are all very kiasu one.

LOL!!
True Singaporean are kiasu but do I care=.=?
I was kinda relieved when I had reached Oriental Hotel.

Countdown to departure: 2 more days

Believe in UFO?




Current Mood: Excited
Current Song: Ayumi Hamasaki - Fated

I saw this video early in the morning over at Yahoo. A new UFO sighting over at Haiti. This is the first time that UFO are caught in scene so clearly. Believe it or not.




If you think it is true, please take a moment and read the comments on that page.





It's FAKE!!!

It is so irritating that some people would just make these fake videos of UFO and then release it. It would just make we people look more like IDIOTS!!

Anway, I managed to complete Final Fantasy I today.


Simply no storyline or maybe I do not get the storyline *shrug*. Totally not worth the money and time to play this game unless you have nothing else to play or do.

Countdown to departure: 3 more days!!

Yay!?




Current Mood: aihh *dont know how to describe*
Current Song: Aya Kamiki - Pierrot

This post will be a combination of yesterday and today. Yesterday, I bought a new handphone. Finally!!! I totally love my new handphone. Samsung U-700!!


Muahaha. This phone totally deserve the award and worth the money. The phone is so "high-tech". Touch screen. The only buttons that they have are the numbers only. Other than that the selection button, connect and disconnect a call are all touch screen buttons. So cool!!

Today has nothing worth to talk about other than Imelda's birthday and the tiring shopping spree. Anyway, Happy Birthday to Imelda. Thanks for the dinner too!! Tiring day I had. Went out from 11 am till like 9 pm.

I was confused on what to use for the emo pictures. I am happy and sad on the same time. Happy as in I got a new handphone and I had officially free from the Management 300 class. As for sad, I'm left with 6 more days to departure. EH WAIT! IT'S 5 MORE DAYS!!!!!!!

Cake Eating Session 2




Current Mood: Lazy
Current Song: mink - why don't you

Laziness really gets me over. This particular blog is supposed to be on an outing two days ago. On that day, YS came to our house with a plastic bag filled with fishball, shark fins and sea slugs *ew*. Sea slug is simply gross. No matter it's black or white, it is still sea slug and disgusting as ever. Anyone still thank you for those expensive stuff. You made my mother felt paiseh until now. Everyone liked the fishball, except for me. Well i'm not the ball-food type of person. Therefore, sotong ball, meat ball, fishball are not my favourite. But i gotta say it's the Q-est fishball i've ever eaten.

There were basically nothing to do in my house. Thus, we decided to go to Kinokuniya at Takashimaya. All the good comics were pretty much already collected or updated. There were basically no more new books to collect, other than Bleach and Full Metal Alchemist. I didn't get anything at all on that day. After wasting time in Kinokuniya, we decided to go for our 2nd cake eating session. This time we went to Coffee Club Express.

These are what we eat. I'll start with mine as usual.


The picture above is called Chocolate Opera. It is sweet. However, it still lose to the one that I ate at TCC! The next food that I ate is not a cake. I just have no mood to eat any sweet stuff anymore that day. I ordered Turkey/Turkish Bread Delight. It is some bread that are provided with 3 different dressings. All the dressings are simply gross. But the bread is nice crunchy and soft.

1. Blackforest Cake

2. Macha Tiramisu


Both above are what YS had ordered. #1 is pretty special blackforest cake. Unlike the normal blackforest cake, this one has marshmallow on top. Not so sweet but still lose to the one i ordered in my opinion. #2 is a total disaster. It reminds me of Mont Blanc, the second cake that I ordered in our 1st cake eating session.

Conclusion: TCC Wins CCE. Congratulation to TCC!!

Oh, I also met with Nobel the day before this outing. We went to eat Mos Burger and just had some gaming over at Cineleisure. Played 3 games of dota and we lost 3 of them. Bleh, too long never play causes all these. >"<

You might be thinking why would I put that emo picture there??






Well, I'm left with 9 more days to departure. Can't believe time is passing by real fast. I gotta spend my time in Singapore more wisely. Hiks.

B'dae party.




Current Mood: Sleepy
Current Song: MinK - together again

Ha! There is basically nothing to blog today. This morning, we were supposed to wake up to go to church. But in the end, we wake up for NOTHING! The mass had already started and what we could do was go there and had a short pray. We ended up with doing nothing. Suddenly, I just had this hunger for chicken rice. I kinda ate too much (2 package of chicken rice). When will I be able to reduce my weight if I just keep on intake so much food?

We left for the Birthday party at 6 pm and shopped around at Takashimaya. Bought 3 boxes of Royce chocolate. LOL! 2 boxes of the Nutty Bar Chocolate and 1 box of the Chocolate Wafers. Since I've recommended the Nutty Bar Chocolate in the previous post, I'll recommend the Chocolate Wafer.


Chocolate Wafers
Chocolate wafers with sandwiching nutty hazelnut cream into a crunchy wafer, and coated with premium chocolate.




Lastly, I would like to say Happy Birthday to Mariana姊姊 again!!

Before ending the post, I would like to recommend three songs. Below are the pv links I got from youtube. Enjoy!!
1. MinK - together again
2. Aya Kamiki - Misekake no I Love You
3. Aya Kamiki - Pierrot

#1 is a jpop ballad by my favourite ballad singer. mink stands for "Made in Korea". Mink's ballad songs have never failed to impress me. I would collect and add it to my mink's CD collection.

#2 & #3: Aya Kamiki is a new singer that was recommended to me through the chinese MTV. This singer reminds me of Tomiko Van. Pretty and has a powerful voice. Only these two songs really catch my attention.

EDIT--

Look at this video!! Argh.. it just makes me want to get a yorkshire terrier puppy!! So fuckin' cute!!

Dead Tired




Current Mood: Tired
Current Song: Garreth Gates - Anyone of Us

I did not have sufficient amount of sleep today. Thanks to my aunt and my sister for waking up early!! I managed to wake up around 9 am, which is kinda not enough for me since I slept at around 2 am. Had an outing again today with YS and JH. We were supposed to meet at 11 am and yet the weather keeps raining. Totally delayed our plans for today.

Bought our comics over at Kinokuniya and started to decide what we should have for lunch. YS kinda had a picky selection of food. He did not want to eat fried food, oily food and no china products. It basically had just wiped out all our selection of restaurant and fastfood that is available in Takashimaya. The only food that I could think of is Aji Tei at Takashimaya Shopping Centre, which is still does not fit to his requirements for the day. However, we still decided to eat there.

Not that I want to complain about this restaurant, there is no reason that you should eat or even try out the food there. Why?
1. Not delicious, other than the cold tofu with sesame paste.
2. Bad service!!! You need to call them every once in awhile for refills of drinks and you still have to order yourself by writing them on a piece of white note.
3. Cleanliness is also not up to my standard.
The worst thing about this restaurant is you still have to pay for service when their service is so bad!! I totally don't understand how they can so much customers in there. The only thing came up to my mind is either they have not really eaten any restaurants that are better or they simply have bad taste. I gotta complain that throughout today's lunch, I only had like one cup of ice water and one cup of japanese green tea. Where is my refill??!!!

Bought royce chocolate again!! I bought two different products.

Nutty Bar Chocolate

I would have rate it 8/10. It is almond Pecannut Cashewnut Macadamianut Nutty Puff and Praline in Chocolate.


BATON COOKIES - Hazelnuts & Cacaonibs

I would rate this 8.5/10. This is a long, thin cookie coated with rich milk chocolate on one side.




For chocolate lovers, do go and taste Royce chocolate. It is better than Godiva and it is not as costly as Godiva. Godiva is like so fucking expensive and not as tasty as Royce.

We watched Origin today over my house. I simply love Indonesia's pirated DVD releases. <3


Gonzo has never failed to provide the viewers with the good graphics and storyline for every single anime that they produce. I love this anime to bits.

Played wii again the whole day. Changing from Wii Sports to Mario Party 8. I am hoping that I will not get any muscle ache tomorrow. In addition, I have stiff neck!!
LOL. I managed to break my own bowling record from 191 to 201 yay. But still, I am 1 point away from breaking my mom's record of 202.

No mood




Current Mood: None
Current Song: S.E.N.S - Be as You Were When We Met

Plue Exodus came to my house today. We sort of trade food. I gave him a dozen of Krispy Kreme's original flavor while he gave me a couple of cheesecakes. Being bored of playing Wii, we decided to watch Dead Silence. It's been awhile since I got the DVD for the movie and finally got the chance to watch it.


Out of 10, I would gladly give it an 8.5. Nice storyline, good music arrangements and most importantly creepy! This movie is creepier than Chucky for sure. It will definitely be creepier if you watched it over the cinema. I would have give it a 9 if I had known the story deeper and better.

Surprisingly, both of my father and mother love Wii so much. We played Wii sports for the whole day. Golf on the afternoon and Bowling on the night. My mother, who was mocked by my father, eventually played better than him later and also broke my record!! Got tired for playing the whole day.

One of my friend got sued by Odex for downloading Code Geass Hangyaku no Lelouch japanese animation. It is kinda lame that they sue us for downloading this anime when they have not even release the japanese animation itself. How can people like us watch this animation if they don't release it? Are they thinking of releasing it in half a year or a year later? Stupid Odex!! I hope they will be bankrupt. Join the Anti-Odex Club LOL!! Geez, I have no mood to do anything at all now.

The Legend of Heroes II: Prophecy of the Moonlight Witch (PSP)




Current Mood: Happy
Current Song: Ne-Yo - Because of You


After owning this game for like almost a year, I finally complete it. Nice story, normal gameplay and kind of short. The gameplay is the same as the Legend of Heroes I. Yay, now I'm down with Legend of Heroes III and Brave Story. Even my comic also left with Brave Story. Somehow I've neglected the O.C. 3rd Season, I have trouble in dividing the time for the various things I'm left with. Hopefully, Legend of Heroes III will be completed by the end of this month.

Had korean food for dinner. I've always love eating Korean's tofu soup. I miss New Seoul's tofu soup.



PS. I'm addicted to Jay Chou's new song, The Secret that cannot be Told. [Mp3] [MV]

Happy National Day & 1st Cake-eating Session!!



Current Mood: Angry
Current Song: Jay Chou - The Secret that cannot be Told (周杰倫 - 不能說的秘密)

Left for school from home at 7:30 am. Met with Ms. Aida, Mrs. Tay and Ms. Tan. Had a pretty long talk with my old form teacher - Mrs. Tay. We gossipped and basically sort of "bad-mouthing" Maris Stella High School. Well, a used-to-be good renowned school has now become a school that is ranked at the bottom amongs the secondary school in Singapore. The Principal, new Vice Principal and Discipline Master are the cause of all these things. Bro. Anthony, Dennis Koh and Maria Koh just get the hell out of the school before the school closes down. You guys suck!! I'm pretty surprised that several teachers do still remember me.

We left to Takashimaya, got the last few eight books of Brave Story and had Mos Burger as our lunch. We also watched two movies today - Secret and Rush Hour 3.


Secret has basically good music, good storyline and sweet story. Although the concept may not be new, it is still a pretty good movie. I would rate it an 8/10. For those Jay Chou fan, don't miss this show. His acting has improved much from his previous movie, The Curse of the Golden Flower.


Rush Hour 3 is a bad show for me. This show has not failed to provide the audience with the humor that is expected. However, storyline seems to be rushed. Compared to Secret, I would have rather watch Secret again.

Before we watched the two movies, we finally had our first cake-eating session!! We had our cake-eating session over at the coffee conisseur. Nice place for afternoon snack.


Next, I will show our cakes~ Plue Exodus and I got two cakes each. I got 1. a chocolate-y cake (forgot the name) and 2. Mont Blanc.
1.

2.

#1 Good, a little bit too sweet. #2 Bad, simply too creamy.

The two cakes that Plue Exodus got was:
1. Ole Ole Oh


2. Mango Mousse


#1 Very Nice, the amount of sweet and bitter is just nice. #2 Bad, totally bad for me. ( I hate mango pudding ). TCC is a recommendable place to snack. The price is abit too pricey though. SG$4.50 for each piece of cake. SG$9 for two pieces of cakes, which is almost two comic books.

I felt abit moody after I reached home. Maybe insufficient amount of sleep caused my mood swing. Was and is still feeling damn angry and agitated easily. Anyway, Happy Birthday Singapore!!

Gift Hunting !!




Current Mood: Relieved
Current Song: Mariah Carey - We Belong Together

Left for Funan IT Mall early at 11:50 am from home to get my piece of Brave Story: New Traveler. Another PSP RPG Game to my collection without completing the Legend of Heroes II, III and Breath of Fire III. Who cares LOL.


Upon reaching GameScore, I was tempted to buy Tales of the World: Radiant Mythology and pretty much still now. Luckily, I managed to curb my temptation. I will get a copy of it though. Simply couldn't forget and resist how fun Tales of Eternia was. I can't imagine how worse than Tales of Eternia it can be.. unless they have lousy storyline, which I pretty much doubt about.


Had lunch at Delifrance and ate egg sandwich. Plue Exodus and I went to Takashimaya for our gift hunting for teachers back from Secondary School. I bought 2 Royce Chocolates - 1 for me and 1 for Miss Tan, the one I met on my previous 3 posts.


I love chocolates so much!! Gotta say it's delicious. We had trouble over what to give my old form teacher, but Tea was afterall the only selection we had. It is not cheap ok?? 1 small packet for $20 dollars. Well it's better than giving fruits. I also bought Merci Chocolate from NTUC. It has become a property of 2 of my teachers and I leave it to god who I shall give this chocolate to. I felt pretty relieved after buying all the gifts. I only have to be present on time on the 8th of August to give these gifts away.

Should i get another Nintendo DS for myself?

Happy B'dae




Current Mood: Sorry
Current Song: Mariah Carey - It's Like That

LOL.. Thanks to the reminder by Friendster that I'm able to remember the exact date of your birthday!! This is probably the only useful features of Friendster for me. SORRY Steph & Happy Birthday!! You know that I'm bad at remembering some stuff such as people's name and birthdates. :( Anyway wish you all the best. Hopefully you have a great and fun birthday party. Probably clubbing huh?? since you club pretty often after I left Seattle =P

Sorry for not being able to be there, congratulate you and give you any presents. But yeah, happy birthday!! Enjoy your year.

Left with..



Current Mood: Happy
Current Song: Fall Out Boys - Thanks for the Memories

Yeah.. I'm down with one more last class, Management 300 - Organizational Behavior. The past few months, the other two classes are pretty busy class. Basically, tons of readings to do by the Indian class and tons of homework, which are daily, by the logic class. I always did it at the last minute though. However, with the end of these two boring and crazy classes, I can allocate more time for my own activities. I can enjoy and relax myself.

Today's outing is simply stupid. Forced to wake up at 10 am to lock the house. Tried the burberry white clothes meant for tomorrow's wedding party and I hate it. I don't want to look like I'm working. White-long-sleeve. First thing comes in mind is definitely working-class. Simply ew. I'd rather get the CK long-sleeve clothes. Had Crystal Jade again for lunch!! This is my third time eating Crystal Jade in a week. Gross!! Ok? Too bad all the guests are oldies. What can I do other than sacrificing my poor little tummy? Even though they are all of different branches, they are still Crystal Jade(s).

After the lunch, I went to Royce to grab the chocolate that Plue Exodus had recommended yesterday. Unfortunately, it is out-of-stock!! Damn it. So unlucky. I bought another different one though. My cousin recommended the Royce chocolate "Champagne" flavor. It does melts but the taste is so-so. :)

There are just so many things that I wish I would be able to do before I leave for Wisconsin on Sept 2nd:
- Constantly buying comics and reading all of them before I left.
- Play Wii, Get enough carnival ticket to buy all the souvenir in the Fun Bazaar over at Mario Party 8.
- Complete Legend of Heroes II and Legend of Heroes III for PSP.
- Watch finish O.C. whole season. (Currently @ 3rd season. Still haven buy the original DVD of 4th season).
- Find back my WHITE DS. *Brenda find it please!!*
- Might be interested to finish up either Beauty and the Geek full season or Desperate Housewife full season.

I'm sad that I lack the ability to multitask :(. Everything just have to be done one at a time.

Damn.. Tomorrow will be a boring day, given that I have to wake up early to go to church. I simply don't look forward to tomorrow. Instead, I look forward to Singapore's National Day!! Can't wait to see the look of the Marists and my form teacher. Argh, I'm still having some trouble over what to give to my form teacher back over at Secondary 4.

Fresh fruits or Tea would be suitable for a chinese old teacher?
PS. Don't assume the tea is the cheap kind. One bottle may cost $20++ with tax. I hate tax!!

What a day!!




Current Mood: Surprised
Current Song: Ciara - 1, 2, Step

I had a pretty surprising outing today. Remember about me saying how "lame" is the Black Sheep movie? Well, I watched it today. LOL. Seriously, this movie is so "Slither-y". For those who have watched Slither, Black Sheep has almost the same concept. Don't ever watch the movie unless you have too much money to spend on or you just have no more movies to watch just like what happened to me.

So what happen?? Why would I watch Black Sheep?
One answer: Wanted to watch Jay Chou's Secret but it hasn't start to show in any theatre. Guess this is the result of you for not reading any newspaper before you leave the house.

Ha. Plue Exodus and I went to takashimaya today and surprisingly met with Miss Tan. A teacher back from Maris Stella. She were going to Godiva Chocolate booth. All their packages are so expensive. 9 pieces for like SG$25? Worth it?? NO!! I'd rather spend it on comics. Had a nice chat with Miss Tan and we're sort of convinced to go back to Maris Stella on the 8th of August, which is the National Day. Hopefully, we can wake up by then. I also met with 2 Singapore actors. Hell know who their names are.
