from marina square -- Sell one get one free..
from the cathay @ dhoby gaut -- collecting good or bad hand chicken (shou ji) instead of handphones..it's puzzling how bad the chinese standard in spore is smth.. with min 10 years of mother tongue education, this is the kinda posters/adverts tt you see on the streets.. i always disagreed with moe's policy of introducing chinese B for students who cannot do well in chinese.. the language isnt tt hard to study frankly, you simply gotta be hardworking to remember how to write those words..
p.s. i'm not good with the chinese language either.. during my nygh days, i rmb tt i had to spend at least 3 or 4x the amt of time megan took in the subject.. somehow it was very hard for me to rmb how to write those words.. really vv hard, but my parents and the sch forced me to work hard for it.. and i'm glad they did..

was suddenly rewarded with 2 entire days at home due to the reshuffling of timetable and the abrupt ending of pa lectures.. so instead of having to finish my biotech notes in 1 day, i've suddenly got 2 entire days, which leaves a lot of time for me to shop ard, surf net and watching random tv shows..
watched champs league this morn.. seriously think tt arsenal probably end up with a trophyless season again this time round.. somehow.. they just lack the killer instinct tt man u and chelsea (despite them ridiculously losing in turkey this morn) have.. furthermore, the gunners were playing very well in the match, the draw was really unlucky with helb's blatant penalty claim (the ref is blind or smth) and dunno y bentler slotted cesc's shot out of the box.. it really could be 3-1 instead..
den again, nobody believed arsenal would win smth this season when the season started.. the players are simply too fresh, too young, too inexperienced, that's wad everyone was saying.. well, wenger's kids have performed way better than expected already.. perhaps next season will be better..
anw.. was walking past raffles medical centre below my house.. and they re recruiting part time clinic assistant.. only have to work 2 nights a week.. quite tempting.. i think i need more relevant working experience.. but mom immediately poured cold water over me.. sigh.. i know i've got too many part-time affairs already but perhaps.. ... ...

this is plain randomness..
happened to chance upon a pair of snails mating in the bushes near my house.. despite years of being glued to animal planet and national geographic, i've nv seen snails in action before..
they were really stuck together.. out of playfulness i tried to force them apart by tickling them with leaves.. but either they were too engrossed in their act of procreation or they were simply too slow to react..
so i left them alone, hopefully they are done before the sun rises, their slimy bodies will be baked by the sun if they continue to stay in this position..poco princesa~because i was taught to dream
was attempting with plin and san to fit each of our clinque members into the 7 dwarfs personality and this is wad we've got..
Doc, the leader of the 7 dwarfs-- San.. for claiming tt she's the moral compass of the clinque, for wearing glasses everyday..
Grumphy -- Manda.. cos she got lots to complain about..
Happy -- Mindy, who's blissfully soaked in love all day and everyday..
Sleepy -- who else but me?? haha.. almost all of them have acted as my human alarm clock for gatherings, mugging trips, school, work and exams..
Bashful -- Mon, obviously cos she's always so embarrassed when we all direct our attention at her.. and she's obviously bullied by everyone else all the time.. haha..
Sneezy -- Jiaen, the best candidate for this since she's always having rhinitis..
Dopey -- Plin, for her clumsiness and she looks so much like dopey in her over-sized looking labcoat..
bbm asked me wad he's be if he's in the story too.. haha.. well, he's definitely not snow white since he's brown and big and not pretty enough for the prince.. so i awarded him the title of being the fly tt is always pestering sleepy..

finally after all the hard work put into the es project, our project results turn out to be even better than wad we would have imagined.. all the staying up till 5am and pia-ing in the ps room till 11pm was quite horrid.. i cant even rmb how many times i proofread and re-formatted the entire report.. luckily it all paid off-- like wad manda was saying, she'll quit sch if we dont get an A for our project man.. haha..
watched giselle in the park with my pharm clinque and bbm on sunday.. well, a bit strange to be watching in the midst of all the tests and with exams coming up.. but i guess is was all worth it.. was quite surprised tt everyone enjoyed the ballet so much (i was kinda worried tt it's boring for them)..
the atmosphere at fort canning was really good.. it seriously didnt fell like spore.. with alot of caucasians drinking wine and enjoying some really atas looking gourmet food everywhere ard you.. luckily, we had sushi, brie cheese and crackers, ribs and stuff too.. cant imagine if we were eating beehoon or how chai kway teo on our army-provided pinic mats (ground sheets) lah.. and the next time i go for ballet under the stars must bring wine!! haha.. tt will be real indulgence man..
The tragic yet beautiful love story of Giselle (from wiki) ---In the first act, a young, innocent village maiden named Giselle is in love with a man she knows only as Loys. In reality, the man is Albrecht, a nobleman disguised as a peasant, who is betrothed to Bathilde, daughter of the Duke. When Giselle discovers the deceit, she is inconsolable and goes mad, then dies; one version says she dies of a broken heart while another says she commits suicide in her madness.
In the second act, her undying love for Albrecht saves him from the wicked magic of the wilis, vampiric ghosts of betrothed girls who were betrayed by their lovers and died before their wedding day. Though their leader, Myrtha, Queen of the Wilis, forces Albrecht to dance again and again, Giselle intervenes long enough to spare his life and allow him to survive until the dawn. At sunrise, the wilis must return to their grave; Giselle must return as well but not before showing Albrecht that she forgives him for his treachery. The two pledge their love to each other and she descends back into her grave, but will forever be separated. Giselle is now a wili for the rest of eternity.
our pinic before the performance.. jiaen's home-made sushi and sandwich was so yummy.. but my fav goes to the honey roasted chix and the french brie with cracked pepper crackers..
monika's body paint.. haha.. the OFF spray acted as solvent and caused discolouration of jiaen's pinic mat.. but it's so green so monika anyway.. the funny part was tt it didnt came off with water so we sprayed even more OFF spray on her leg to dissolve the colour.. haha..
