Photoshoot

Photobucket
For the first time I brought my new Baby out to snap some pictures. I was alittle excited because I had not mastered the skill of photography but I just wanted to bring it out... So I brought it out to Clarke Quay for my virgin photo shoot. I know my photography skills suck, I'm still learning so please bear with me... :D Will not put up all the pictures but just some of them... But if you are interested, please feel free to check out my facebook pictures. :D

We had dinner at Fishermen's Wharf. Their fish and chips is really good. You guys should seriously go and try it. But my advice to you is to pick a cooler day to go because there is no air-con for that restaurant!!!

SIngle no more...

Went to Wala Wala with a couple of friends to celebrate the last couple of singlehood days of Andrew and his partner before they get married. Well, the band was really nice BUT the ambiance suck. The crowd was just horrible and it was freaking warm in there. My god... Felt as if I was in a sauna.... *Faintz* Well, I don't think I would want to go there again unless it's during a weekday whereby it is not so crowded...

My new Baby...

Went to the Sitex Fair at Expo and brought home my new Baby... Initially, I wanted to get the Canon Sx 10 or Sx 20, but after some influence from a couple of friends, I decided to get a SLR instead. Although it is not an expensive model but I'm already contented. This is my first SLR. Thank you mummy for this nice graduation present. I love it. Still trying to learn how to use it... :D
After hearing that I've got a SLR, Bro was so excited too. Haha... He stayed up till I came back just to play with it... Haha...

My new Baby....

Last day of school

Finally, this is the last lesson for the semester which also means that I am 1 more step closer to graduation. I'm so going to miss my school days.... Sigh... Well, I would still like to thank those who helped me throughout my university days in one way or another. A big thank you. Wouldn't know what to do without you guys. Kisses...

Went to the doctor for my rashes and got a jab on my butt... Painful... Guess no seafood and alcohol for a week at least.... :(

Tavis's Birthday

Aunt invited my family over to their house to celebrate my cousin, Tavis's 27th birthday. A pity I could not attend because I had to rush my assignment. 7 pages of writing is driving me nuts. Nonetheless I would still have to finish it, because it was my last essay for the semester and I am done with school. Excited and yet scary because that means that it is time for me to start searching for a proper job. Wish me all the best in my job hunting and hopefully I can find something that I truly enjoy doing.

Being a girl can be so troublesome

Being a girl can be such a troublesome thing. Went to the doctor the today because I had rashes outbreak on my face. What happened was that the day before, I was thinking to myself, "Hmm... I haven't been pampering myself enough recently. Why don't I start by doing a face mask." So, there I was, happily putting on my face mask while relaxing and watching television. Everything seems fine, until the next day when I got up and went to the washroom, I saw 2 HUGE patches of red on my cheeks. Gosh, that was a disaster. I thought I was going to be disfigured or something. Freaked me out of my wits. The rashes were REALLY bad... I had never had such issues with skincare products and why now??? Oh well, I went to the doctor and he told me that my skin looked burnt. BURNT??!!! Yup, apparently by some acidic content in the mask that I was using. Good gracious. Time to dump the mask already... :( Scary....

And, damn it, why do rashes kept coming back to me these days? I thought I've just recovered from rashes on my body and now rashes on my face. And guess what, the rashes on my body are coming back again... What is wrong with me.

Love checking out new places to dine in, so this time round I checked out La Strada. If I were to give a rating, it would be 3/5 hearts.

Was a little disappointed with my food but overall was quite alright. Perhaps I had too much expectation for that place because of all the raving from several people
The place was quite cosy and comfortable.

Empire State

Had dinner at Empire State and the food was not fantastic. Although it looks like New York New York, but I think New York New York is much better, in terms of taste and service. I feel that the waitresses at Empire State have attitude problem...

After that, watched 2012 at Iluma, Filmgarde. The movie was good... 2 thumbs up for it... Although the movie was 157min, it was all worthwhile. Should have booked the Gold Class instead. Sigh...

Joke of the century

Joke Of The Century
The recruitment agency's consultant asked me a couple of questions which lead me wondering if she actually read my resume or even used her brain...

1.She asked if I wanted to go back to nursing and kept emphasizing how well nurses are paid.

Oh please, if I had the intention of going back to being a nurse why did I switch course in doing a Bachelor of Arts in Communication and not a Degree in Nursing which take a shorter time to finish? And why would I even need their service to help me find a nursing job? There is a lack of nurses EVERYWHERE... I can jolly well find one myself. And if she really thinks that nurses are well-paid then she is wrong because I think I know more nurses as compared to her in her entire lifetime.

2. She asked if I'm interested to be a receptionist since I had included in my resume that I enjoy meeting new people.

I do not pay $67k of school fees and spend so much time and effort to get my degree just to be a receptionist. Don't you think it is a waste of talent? If I seriously wanted to be a receptionist, I do not even need any qualifications. What was she thinking... *Shake Head*

3. She asked me what was my expected salary and quoted me $1.9k

When I graduated from my diploma, I've got $1.8k and now after I've got a degree, $1.9k? Are you kidding me?

Being alone

Photobucket
Had an appointment with a recruitment agency today and decided to have lunch at Coffeeclub. Love the Bake Spaghetti Bolognaise. Really enjoyed the time spent today. My book and Ipod accompanied me the whole time. I got to observe many different kinds of people too.
  1. An uncle finally ordered food after sitting there for at least 30min with a cup of coffee. He was alone the whole time by the way.
  2. People shunting away from surveyors like as if they have got some weird diseases...
  3. A woman who dyed 4 different colors on her hair... Cool...
  4. Another woman who walked like a supermodel. Twisting and shaking her butt. Weird
  5. And of course not forgetting really good looking people... :p
I went shopping too... Bought a top and a dress from Far East.

And not forgetting the pair of flats that I've got sometime back.... Recently, I've been so in love with flats (only pretty ones)... :)

I do not know if it is because I have not been taking the public transport for a long time, I realized that many things have changed. For instance, there are barriers/gates along the tracks at Jurong East station now. Is it because people had been committing suicide and they are trying to prevent it from happening? And there are also SBS buses that goes straight to Johor? I always thought those buses are only available in Kranji. Interesting...

Visiting the sick

Bro is coming back tonight so I decided to take the car for a last spin. Guess where I went? I gave a sick person a surprise visit. Wasn't I such a darling? After that went to pick Sis up from her house in Woodlands. Gosh that was far... But I did enjoy the long spin thou. And I went to pump petrol too... Haha... It was my first time and I was so blur, did not know where to open the fuel cover... :p

Meet-ups

Last minute went to Jurong Point to meet Laopo, it's been almost 2 weeks or more since I last saw her. Initially, we wanted to have coffee at Bakerzin but ended up having lunch instead. They have some promotion going on whereby it one-for-one for all main course. So obviously we took the cheap deal. :D Here are what we ate.

After that, we went to do Express Manicure which cost us $8 each. Oh my goodness, DIRT CHEAP!!!

Following that, I had to rush back home to put my car before heading out to my next destination, The Wine Company at Evans to have dinner and my favorite wine. This time, I had finally got to try their warm chocolate cake which I always wanted to try. It was yummy.....

Post dinner party at St. James. We did not stay until very late, didn't have the mood to party. But there are several entertaining people there that night, we kept ourselves busy by observing them. It's good to stay sober sometimes, so that you can observe "the interesting" people. :D
