My 2008 Vday

My Valentine's day celebration
Started my day having lunch at Tiong Bahru Plaza SteamBoat. WJ has not yet told me where we were going to. Till we board e cab then I realised that we are heading to



Ofcos I feel surprised by WJ arrangement. We check-in at the reception and gotten room 2308. WJ opened the door and the moment I stepped into the room, I saw this



on the bed. It took me a few secs to realise that the gift was for me. Indeed I was shocked. It was a surprise specially planned by WJ for me. Yes, Im happy to have a new bag but Im felt kinda bad as I supposed WJ must have spent a bomb again and also I didnt managed to get him any stuffs this time. I was really SURPRISED as didnt expect WJ to buy any present for me as he was constantly with me and never go out. Didnt really expect him to ask Sab to go and buy the gift on his behalf. That's my boy

An overview of the room


The toilet's bathtub face Marina Bay/Fullerton and the city skyline

And they have a 37-inch tv. Shiok! WJ and I tried quite a long time to shift the TV but failed. In the end, we called up to check with the help-desk. Haa! After resting in the room for 1/2 hr? We proceed to Marina Sq to catch CJ7. Comedy show.

The One who spent my Vday with me


The nightview from the room. Beautiful right!


We were given $40 of dining room. We decided to order just 1 plate of fried rice from the Chinese restaurant. The plate of fried rice cost $36 after adding up GST, Gov taxes and a $5 room service charges. Overpriced! Went to DXO "kopi tiam" to packet string-ray and veg however it kinda tasteless. The fried rice thou ex but is definately worthy of e price

Oh ya, while walking to the "Kopi tiam", we saw the Ching-Gay poster. WJ were saying if he book a day later, we could have watched Ching-Gay celebration from e hotel room. Haa

Rested till 10+ pm den I went back home for awhile as I have to "pai tian gong". Helped out my family and burn the incense. Left my plc at 1+ before going back to the hotel. Slept thru the night. WJ and I force ourself to wake up at 9+ as we didnt want to miss their breakfast buffet.

The total charges for the breakfast if it wasnt a complimentary


The breakfast was edible but it kind of salty. After the breakfast, we went back to take a short nap.
Before checking-out of our room. 23th floor while waiting for lift to come =)

Oh yes, the services by Ritz staffs is excellent!

Obviously the 2nd Yu shen look more appetizing right! Had fun that day at Gladys plc. I played one round of MJ; followed by BlackJack.
During MJ session, a hilarious thing happened. "Miss A" has been taking less MJ tiles but she didnt told us.
Till dong3, becky who was the "Dong banker" was asking: Why do I only have 17 stacks of tiles? Me and LiJun tried so hard to find the missing 2 stacks MJ tiles till we supect there was something dirty in the room. We wanted to get out of the room den "Miss A" said:
Perhaps u all should try looking for it in the MJ box cos all along I was didnt get the exact stakes. We were all like -_-"
Well well, for MJ, I had a draw but I lost on Blackjack. Seems like I don have much luck with Blackjack man. Haa!

Oh, I had a wonderful CNY thou the older I get, the leser the CNY mood. CNY is one occasion I grew up looking forward to. As I will get new clothes and lots of AngBaos during this period of the year. Not forgetting, those tasty CNY goodies =)

Starting to feel e heaty-ness in my body due to lack of h2o this few days. Bless me not to fall sick again. I lost 0.5 kg again even thou Im eating ALOT this few days. I wonder how high is my metabolism?

Waa... Been so many days since I last blog.
I've been busy, period! With the preparation of my new job. Need to master all those scripts and when I fail to recall what I had memorisedn few weeks ago... I felt so disappointed with myself.
But I told myself that I will try harder and put in more effort. Glad that my hard work pays off :) Gladys say Im improving. Just that I need more confident =)

Went GalleryBar at St James on Fri (18/1)




I bought the hairband for more than 1yrs plus while I was in BKK and its my 1st time using it. Didnt stay long at there cos the next day I still have to go back office for training.
Sat (19/01), Gladys came to pick me up and together we went to office. We met with an car accident. The student did not check blind-spot. She turn out and we crash into the learning car. Luckily all of us were fine and the instructor asked Gladys to claim him.

I met up with Angela last week? Had our dinner at Jacks' Place; afterwhich we went for a walk at Bugis. Bought about the same bag, chit chat and more. The most funny thing happened when we were leaving the carpark.
Me: You think I should turn left or right? It seems to be a one way traffic ley.
She: Turn right. The car has just turned in from there.
Me: Right har? Confirm ar???

I turn left... Thinking that it was right. Haa! Shared some feelings of mine with her. She say she felt that somehow Im deceiving myself... I donno whether is she right but since I had already made e decision, I should go ahead with it. Don look back...

I gotten my thumb-drive. A necessitate for my work. Find it kinda boring looking

So I decided to bedazzle it. Learnt it from xiaxue's blog... WJ drove me to Arab Street to purchase those crystals; which costs me $40 -_-"

Tada !!!


That's my sparking and outstanding thumb drive =)
I spent close to 3 hrs sticking all those crystal on it. I know I took a long time but its my 1st time doing it ma.

I played MJ with AiLun one of the days too. Till morning 7+? I almost fall asleep man. Her baby boy is adorable.

On 24/1 (Thurs) WJ treated Ah yi, Lester Kor and Ah ma for dinner. After that, we went Vivo to shop for more of my CNY clothes.
My dearest Ah ma very funny; she insisted on buying me clothes. She say all along, every yr during CNY she will buy clothes for me. This year cannot be an exception; she say she will continue buying for me till the day I get marry. I laugh it off but isnt she dear? That day she didnt managed to get any clothes for me cos Ah yi paid for my shopping =) 1 dress and 1 top that adds up to 100+
The following day, ah ma asked me to go out with her cos she die die want to get something for me. So I date her to Raffles plc to shop for my shoes together with WJ. WJ paid for both of the shoes thus Ah ma was like WTH. But all this didnt get her down. Few days later, she still bought clothes for me by herself -_-" Even thou I don really like the dress but I love her muchie man!
Im pampered like a princess by my loved ones.

On 26/01, WJ and I decided to cook dinner ourself. Our food

Aunty has baked cookies for me and my ah ma. I love the cookies that she bake :) Delicious! I still remember there was a yr, I helped her to make the cookies. Its quite a tough job man. She even asked Kev to pass me an angbao.
