Christmas celebrations! (23rd, 24th & 25th Dec)

It started off with the cheapo gang on 23rd Dec. We had early Christmas presents exchange and a simple stay over at Sherman's house. The efficient planner, Teresa, (she claims herself) plan this using the Facebook's 'event' function. (cheapo way)

We met at Orchard and not surprisingly, Marcus is not with us on that day. He says he is not feeling well or something but anyway, Happy birthday.









We walk around and took MRT to sherman's house. Lester need to go somewhere and he will join us later. We play Big 2, spongebob squarepants monopoly, take pictures with these things on...

Bought at Watsons @ 3 for $5?


When Lester came, we start to exchange presents. Everyone is unaware of each others' presents. Basically, everyone is aiming for Yuenky's present because hers was the biggest of all! Of course we did it the fair way by drawing lots.



In the end, I got sherman's shades, which is something that Yuenky already knows and she's hopping that she won't get it.

Lester, the cheapest of all, got Yuenky's biggest present and it turned out to be Ikea's laptop table. We all think that this present is super good and Lester is spitting orgasmic spasm from his face!

After that, we went for Geylang supper and we saw many uncommon sights at the dark streets. The Ti-Ko ah peks are sitting at the coffee shop table while the 'girls' are busy touching up although they are already wearing thick masks.

We got back to sherman's house and I told myself that I had to sleep a few hours no matter what because I still have to meet my friends later on.

Around morning (24th Dec), my sis came to fetch me and Teresa. Luckily she came, if not we had to take the MRT train, looking super restless.



Went to fetch Timothy from school. He got lots of presents and christmas goodies. He even got a BIG bear from their very own present exchange! What a clever boy! Kids these days are luckier than us.

I think we throw away the bear because the hair keep dropping. Shh, don't tell Timothy. He'll forget.


At night time, we meet Tb, Hx, Mk and Ws at West coast plaza to have our christmas dinner. It is the most Ulu place in Singapore during festive seasons. If you are scare that there will be no place in restaurants during Christmas, think WC plaza. Oh no, I just revealed our secret place!

Unfortunately, we chose a restaurant called "Tian Wang" and their service and serving time is super duper bad and slow. Although they apologise, (it's too late to apologise) we still have to pay the bill right? Spoil our Christmas mood. To recall back, I think I eat mostly veges in the set meal.

Although the dinner was ruined, our exchange presents session was a success.

Tb got Mk's present


Hx got my Sis's present


Ws got my present! Look at him, so happy


Mk got Hx's present


I got Tb's present of a headset and my sis got a DVD called 'Pi Zhi ying Xiong' (Black & White) from Ws. This year it's kind of different because we 'know' who are buying our presents for. Last year, we just have to buy things that are suitable for anyone because anyone can get any present.

After that, they play cards until 2am and the next day (25th Dec), the same bunch of us meet Jin Jin, Wei bin and Rui fang at Boon lay MRT for Jurong Safra Kbox session.(Qiu Yin meet us after that) Super long never meet up with them but they still looked the same to me.

After Kbox, we kind of had nothing to do because some of us want movie while others want shopping or bowling. In the end, we settled for Marina square. When we reach there, we straight away eat at Xing Wang restaurant. Don't know why we are all so hungry.

Love this photo!


Finally found someone that knows how to use a camera to take photos


After eating, we went shopping and play those UFO machine whereby they can catch toys from it. I spent $5 just to get a snoopy keychain only lor. Somemore is tyco one!

Went Esplanade rooftop to rest.





Played 'Murderer' and it's super fun. We cannot really see each others eyes because it's pretty dark. The lights are not helping us and we are sort of unsure whether we are dead or not. (Murderer winked at you means you dead)

Last photo until Christmas ends


Merry christmas everyone.

Random entry

Life had been blissful for me recently. I'm currently enjoying my holidays by being lazy everyday. I do the things that most people do; eat, sleep, play and watch. This is the perfect lifestyle for me and I am glad to say it.


Wan Zai Hong Kong Cafe, IMM building level 3


This is one of the food that I am craving for. The taste of this Wanton Noodle had been spinning in my head ever since I've tried it. I know I don't like noodles but this is exceptional!


Wan Zai Hong Kong Cafe, IMM building level 3


This is their side dish and it is very crisy per se. It contain a regular size prawn in every Wanton and the prawn is super fresh.

How I know? I am allergic to prawn and whenever a prawn can make my allergy acts up, it is fresh! (You can even see one strand of prawn feeler in the picture!)


West coast plaza, forget the name of the place but it's some kind of cafe @ level 2


Honestly, not very nice. But it is very oily and that is what I like about it. Taste a bit like laksa instead of curry. Chicken is boiled until it is very soft.

----------------------------------

Watched Feng yun 2, Storm raiders with Sis and Hx.



It was a disappointment despite the fact that they keep counting down starting from 100 days ago. I thought it was a movie that can be the 'finale' type because it was due at December. I was anticipating this movie and the more anticipation, the more disappointment.

The disappointment comes from the part whereby the bad guy dies too easily. They say until like he is unbeatable but in the end died with decay from the feng's evilness.

-----------------------------------

Cousin's big day (girl)



Yes, I am sitting at the front table. You can see from the picture above, no zoom, no movement. I just stood up and turn around to capture this picture. The food was nice, but the people at the table was not.

-----------------------------------

Lastly, Christmas is approaching and I am almost done with the presents selection. I am so looking forward to it. Wonder what sort of presents will I get?

New PSB

I drew a new PSB (Click here) and it was about a recent case when me and my sis want to buy chicken rice but later found out that it was closed for the day.

P/S: You can view PSB on the right side of the navigation.

We were actively discussing about what we are ordering and just a turn after the wall, the stall was closed for the day! Our reaction was like "?!!?".

超級星光大道 Chao Ji Xing Guang Da Dao 6

Chao Ji Xing Guang Da Dao 第六季 began on 6 November 2009. Below is the embedded link for it if you are intersted.



However, I noticed something's changing. Unlike the past, the team leaders which is also Zhang yu, Xiao pang, Zuo An An and Kang Kang will sometimes pick songs for their team members to sing. They are also grouped into teams for easier observation and guidance.

When the team loses, the team leaders will be forced to eliminate those who didn't perform well for that episode, resulting in hidden 'weaklings' on the winning teams. Not that I am saying it's unfair but they can't hide forever. Besides, those that did well the previous week didn't seemed to be doing well consecutively for the subsequent week.

To be honest, no one really stands out at this moment because of their instabilities. However, there might be 1 team with the 3 guys (not Jonas brother!) who are constantly singing songs that combined their voices together in unison. Yes, they are good, but how far can they go with 3 persons while all the others are only 1 person? That wouldn't be fair. (whenever one of them sing the solo, I can also hear the instability in them)

I still think Xu jia ying of Xing Guang 3 is the most stable contestant of all. Forget about Xing Guang 1 & 2 because I never watched them. (I started with xing guang 3 and am glad for that)

---------------------------------------

1 more week to 3 weeks holiday. Haven't plan what to do with it!



But currently, I have my new game (Petville) to keep me company.

Sakae Buffet + Case 39 (1st December)



Teresa, Yuenky and I were late for the movie slot and we decided to fill our stomach first with Sakae tea time buffet. Little did we realised that we had only half an hour till last order and we had to order as much as we can because no orders are to be made after 5:30pm.

We are not called 'cheapo gang' for nothing. Above are the food we ordered and we couldn't finish it all. These isn't all until we realised we couldn't finish them and the plump waitress keep emphasizing that we shouldn't waste food.



See this? Teresa ordered 5 and it only came when we are all super full already. To be fair to Teresa, who couldn't finish them, Sakae must have planned such ways to make us full until siao!



The sashimi is not in the freshest state.



This looks the most appetizing. steamed egg Chiramushi.



We Teresa and Yuenky couldn't finish most of the food due to their greed and they cleverly think of a way to hide the leftover food. They used the plates to squash the rice and what not in between and the passerby all looked in awe.

I, hereby remind all buffet lover not to be so greedy and take so much food. Only take what you can finish. Besides, researchers came out with this astonishing report that eating too full will result in you dying faster.

With a full and bursting stomach, we watched 'Case 39' and it was nice.



This child looks so innocent but within her is a devil who feeds on the fear of others and she can manipulate her victim with a call of jibberish talking and they will oblign to her.

Prawning session



Cheapo gang full team!



My biggest catch. One of the claw broke. I think it was because the prawn uses its claw to hold onto the soil, making it difficult for me to catch. Then, I pulled so hard that the claw snapped! HAHA!!!

see below... Orbi quack



I later joined my sis and caught 25 prawns.



BBQ prawns. Isn't it nice to eat what you caught?
