Hi all!
I was too busy (and lazy) to blog for so long!
Happy belated Valentine's Day and Xin Nian Kuai Le!
I went out quite a lot with my friends over the past week.
Went to NYDC at Suntec with Wei Qi on friday (9th Feb). My first time eating there. I had the roast chicken spaghetti which I thought was not bad, and we also shared 2 slices of cake. Yum yum! Later, we went to play pool at Marina Square. I won by a bit. Ha!
Saturday, I went kickboxing with Shuwen as usual. That day's exercise was really very, very tough!
As for Sunday, I went to my Aunt's house for early reunion dinner as my family will be spending the actual day at my Dad's side. We played asshole daidi as usual, and it was a lot of fun!
Monday, I went with the other interns to Crystal Jade at Suntec. It's my first time at Chrystal Jade. I'm such a mountain tortise. It was a lot of fun, being our first outing together. I thought the food was nice!
On Tuesday, I went out with Janice. We went to New York New York. My first time too! Haha... I went to many nice restaurants for the first time the whole week! It certainly burnt quite a hole in my pocket, but it was really worth it, considering the fact the last time I met up with all my friends was before I started work.
Something really disastrous happened that day. My handphone ran out of battery at the last minute! Worse still, I don't know Janice's number by heart. (That's how reliant I am on my phone. I don't think I'm the only one.)
We were supposed to meet at City Hall MRT, but we were also thinking of going there earlier to get seats. So in the end, there wasn't a certain place to meet. And with no handphone, I could only hope to meet her along the way.
I walked from the MRT station to NYNY and back, TWICE!, before Janice spotted me. Thank goodness, if not I wouldn't have known what to do.
The main course at NYNY is not bad, quite cheap too. We shared fish & chips ($12.90) and cheese balls. The cheese balls were some kind of appetisers - small harshbrown balls filled with cheese. Not bad, though it was so little, it wasn't worth the $8.90 we paid.
We went shopping at Marina Square, before going to Gelare for half priced waffles. Ha! Super nice, and we were really full by then. I saw Teng Wen there too.
Wednesday, also Valentine's day, I went out with my HOT DATE.
Wei Qi and I went to chocolate factory at Clarke Quay. We shared a chocolate souffle and a slice of chocolate cake. Luckily we went early. If we had reached just 5 minutes later, we would have to wait for seats.
We had little to eat, and just talked, partly about guys. Haha... She was going clubbing with her friends at Zouk so I went home first.
Friday: we had half day off from work! I worked till 3pm and claimed 2.5 hours of OT, and still went home earlier than usual. What a nice day.
Saturday was CNY eve. I went to my Uncle's house for reunion dinner. We played blackjack, and I lost $4. I always lose every single year...
Sunday: first day of CNY. I went to my Grandma's house, then to my Auntie's house. I played mahjong and won 20 bucks. It was all because of the one round where I got all the animals, and a flower (5 tai) and zi mo. Ha! We were playing 20 cents, 40 cents. I won another $10 at blackjack. Super lucky day for me!
Monday: the second day, I went to my Auntie's house again. I won another $15 at mahjong. I am seriously getting more expert at this! All thanks to my qing yi se, I got another 5 tai. Ha! All in all, I won $40 in gambling. Though I must remember that gambling is not good... This is enough to recoup all my loses for the past years. Ha!
It was a great CNY, and today, my family spent the whole day at home watching shen diao xia lu DVD. Shoik! I'm looking forward to going back to work again. Wei Qi's going for interview tomorrow cos we're hiring 2 more interns. Hope she gets the job!
*PS: I wanna tell everyone some superb news! I've got a PSC SCHOLARSHIP! It's provisional though, means that I have to get my excellent grades for A's in order to confirm that I've gotten it. In case you don't know, PSC scholarships are super prestigious! Woohoo! I'm so happy, though anxious at the same time. I can't wait for A's to be released!
