I just realised how dumb I can be when in a wrong state of mind. I mailed an invoice just now without a stamp! Damn it damn it damn it damn it... Next thing is it'll be sent back to 32 Sultan Gate (hopefully) and whoever sees it will know I'm the *toot* cause it's Azalea's invoice! Urgh!

Bf accompanied me to Murdoch for application yesterday after work. Weeeee.. His support and understanding means a lot. Jasmine, thank you too! (:
Sakae Teppanyaki for dinner! A treat to reward ourselves for surviving the past penniless month.
Very value-for-money! Only $28.50++ for two, additional $2plus to upgrade steamed rice to their signature garlic fried rice which was YUMMY! The small pathetic looking oyster wasn't included in the set, additional item bf wanted to try. Salmon was actually served as sashimi but we requested for cooked ones. YUMMY!
But honestly, ALL items are cooked with the same ingredients throughout, I told bf I can do these dishes for him in future too! Haha. Salt, pepper, soya sauce, garlic, butter, and the magical black (teriyaki?) sauce which goes with everything! Haha. Food portioning quite small, yet still filling. Oh, there's complimentary scoop of ice cream too!
Total bill came up to around $47, quite worth it I guess.
Yummy and filling dinner. I like! (:

OMG! ANTM Cycle 12!!
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!



9:23 PM

On my way home just now, I was amazed by the endless flow of crowd at interchange. Oh TampinesONE, damn you. (Sidetracking a bit, we saw somebody for the first time together there on our first visit. Opps. Butterflies in my stomach, for no reason. I don’t know why. Oh well..) For the short walk of 5mins from control station to bus station, I had to glide my way through; I hate being stopped by people whose eyes are not on their path but on things round them. Urgh.

Then I thought of rewarding myself for surviving the crowd and the Monday blues with Macdonalds, but settled for bubble tea on second thoughts. Urgh, pay cheque not in yet! Can you imagine I’m left with $X.15 in one bank and $X.43 in another. Damn. I received a reminder from Singtel, which I never had in quite a long time. I had to borrow ten bucks from mummy to go take passport size photos just now. How sad.. ):

Well well, by a twist of fate, I’m gonna reinstate my status of a STUDENT again! Mixed feelings; excited + nervous + fear + uncertainty + lots of <3 from family and bf. I know I need to put in a whole damn lot of determination and effort to get through this. Time flies right? Everyone says that. I really hope 1.5 years will flyyyyyy faster than I thought.
Certs; check. Ugly photos; check. Application form; check. $$, CHECK!


God, it’s my dad’s hard-earned savings for the past XX years. I really hope I will do well, if not pass and get a decent job with a decent pay which is enough to pay back and provide papa mama with. Then before I fulfil the previous sentence, I pray wholeheartedly to GuanYinMa to let me have Jas as companion for the next 1.5 years. If not, the following is a self-reminder. "LIM RUI TING, smile and talk to people, be kind and friendly and sincere, you need friends, er nope, group mates!" Urgh. ):

Enough of grumblings…

Ktv-ed with the darlings yet again, for Patrick’s XXth birthday this time round. Last year was ktv too! A photo as supporting doc. Can you count the candles? :X Haha.

No captions. Sense our joy, laughter and humour from the photos! (:









LOL!! :D

Haha. Saw photos of our last Sentosa trip with some wolleyball action. Gosh, it’s been a year!! Let’s go burn some fats and get some vitamin D soon ok? Pretty preaseeeee…

Baby’s Corner
Sorry sorry sorry.. The person you talked to this afternoon was not me; she’s my evil twin with exact opposite characters. From now, I will take away her freedom of speech, I will not allow her to say hurtful stuff, and I will keep her out of our way. I try. Promise I’ll kick her out. Love you sweets, as much as before and accumulating more. (:

I've learned.
No more msn nicks. No more bitching.
Appreciated the sharing session. At least we know where the money goes.
But still, no empathy, no gratitude, no impact on me.
No I'm not pissed though it's targeted at me.
Numb is probably the best description.
What a big fuss over that few simple words.
But I still stand by my belief.
Just don't wish to make things difficult for others.
"Better late than never", I'll keep that in mind.

I LOST ALL MY RESPECT FOR YOU TOTALLY.



Thursday, April 9, 2009 5:25 PM

I'm just wanna say that I'd been feeling very happy and so spoilt that papa, mama, bro and bf are all very supportive of my decision.
$$ has always been the main issue. Bank loans, personal loans, instalments, etc... I never knew how to get these tedious processes/applications done. I hope I can do without bank loans, I hope I can get through the 1.5years, all the mugging and tests and exams, I'm so damn unprepared to embrace them again! :X
Haha and bro was so supportive, and he knows I tend to procrastinate, he was the one who helped me took the first step to call up SMA to enquire.
Haha, other than being in love with my boy, recently I fell for my bro! LOL. He's so kind enough to offer me $$ as he knows of my situation. He's so kind to say that he can help to share my burden of school fees. OMG you really don't know how touched I am. For the first time in my 22years, I feel I'm so lucky to have an elder bro. Haha. (: weeeeeeee~
A random note:
Just had fries and Oreo Mcflurry with the cranky PS girls. Haha so fulfilling and satisfying, we should do it often! (when we still have the chance to!) (:



Saturday, April 4, 2009 5:56 PM

I finally find time to sit comfortably at home (cause bf's gonna work through the weekends and I'm all alone), go through and edit the numerous photos in camera (but definitely ain't posting them all, I'm too impatient to undergo the long uploading process), and blog about about my past week which was splendid! (:

Woke up early in the morning and went bai bai with papa mama for qing ming. Both the temple and columbarium were crowded to the max. I went there lacking sleep, so sleepy, still got to tolerate those irritating kiasu aunties. Grrr..

Bf and I went cycling at ECP in the afternoon. Haha first time cycling the twin-bicycle! We passed by the former big splash and happened to spot a car boot flea.
The weather is so damn scorching hot, that I think bf got a level darker. Haha.

Met my girlies for dinner. It was their treat at Suan Thai Restaurant, Liang Court. Authentic thai food, fantastic tom yam soup, reasonable buffet dinner I would say. Would like to go there again, but bf don't take spicy food. -__-


Bf fetched me from Clarke Quay and we went for some late night activities haha.
First was to have my favourite mango dessert at Ji De Chi, though I wanted Gelare more. And it didn't occur to me that he had some surprise up his sleeves, I thought he just wanted to drive around cause we seldom get to use his bro's car. Anyway, after that he said 'Eh you haven't go Mt Faber before hor', and off we went.


After that, he still doesn't want to go home yet so we went to Tanjong Rhu for a walk.

When it was close to twelve, we got back to the car, thinking that we're finally going home. Then the problematic bf said he was feeling cold and needs to take jacket from the car boot.

Haha when he brought out the cake, everything was explained! Dumb dumb bf said he didn't want to bring me to Gelare cause he's afraid I'll be too full for the cake. Went to dessert, Mt Faber and tanjong rhu was to stall for time, cause he's too shy to sing me bday song at home. Haha tell me how not to love this adorable boy. Haha.

First surprise was... Snow City! I think we mentioned before about going there, but didn't find a chance to. So he brought me there!
Fun experience, but gets boring after few rounds of sliding down the slope. Cause that's the only thing to do there! And no cameras allowed, so no camwhoring, how boring.
But I still had a fair share of fun with bf, another 'first time'! (:

After that, we caught Confessions of a Shopaholic at Vivo. Nice chick flick. I like. Hee.

We were running slightly late for dinner (which I didn't know at where at that time), bf got a little pissed. And suay enough, cashcard value insufficient for ERP, and he got a fine. -__-
Anyway, we drove passed Raffles City and I was 'Oh please don't tell me it's swissotel. You have enough money meh!' HAHA.
Yup, dinner at EQUINOX!


See the view! Gorgeous.
And our very expensive dinner, which I doubt I'll eat there for a second time again. Haha.
Appetizer: Exotic Salad of King Crab with Hawaiian Tuna Poke, Purple Avocado Guacamole with Pomelo and Orange Salsa

Soup: Hot and Sour Chicken & Coconut Soup, with Lemongrass, Blue Ginger and Kaffir Lime Leaves
My main course: Grilled Local Sea-bass Fillet Okonomiyaki, with Braised Octopus, Crispy Bacon and Japanese Mayonnaise
Bf's main course: Local Pekin Duck, Short-roasted Breast Meat with Dark Soya, Five Spices Confit Leg Meat with Yam puree and Hoi-sin Sauce


My very lovely date! (:

A very random ladies night at St James. Haha Qi jio-ed and we are all very steady girlfriends, that's why we all gladly agreed to go. Haha. We reached at 10plus, we all merely went for the free drinks. After I had two, bf called and reminded me of my promise to him, which was to leave at 11.15pm to catch last train home. Haha, and I kept to my promise, I caught the last train back.

02.04.09
Was ktv date with PS darlings, to celebrate Mich's and my bday. (:

We've been joking about our clothes all day, zebra and leopard. -__- hee.

Our little surprise bday cake.

LOL! I just kept laughing when I see this photo. See our faces, priceless! Haha. Jenna and I were stunned. Yet Mich, Lin and Jas were all smiling to the cam. Don't know what's with Pat, haha and Bingcai is behind bf's butt! :D Classic one of missing the self-timer. HAHA.


Love this photo. We all look so preeety! (:


LOL, the focus of this collage is definitely Pat. LOL I think he was in damn good mood and plus influence of beer, he was damn high! Haha.

A decent one finally.

Photographer knows the angle we all love, elevated!

Dear Jenna da jie who's so forever busy with work, I'm so glad she made it there. Haha.

Collage of several candids. Try spotting our tak-glam faces, but I doubt there's any cause we're all natural beauties. Haha.

My boy and I, filled with <3. (:


Machiam taking sec school class photo, a formal and an informal!

Hehe bf never fails to crack us up with his endless tricks. He transformed into our helpful manager instantly with the coat on. HAHA.

THIS IS SO SCANDALOUS! I figured that this photo is too inappropriate to post with the faces, hence I mosaic-ed them to protect their identities. I didn't want readers to be traumatized too. I refuse to acknowledge these two men. LOL.


Our parting shot! (: I love these damn happening people haha.

Alright, people close enough will know that I'm penniless now. I lost track of where my money goes every month, I really sucked at it. ):
Now I don't wander alones in malls, as I feel sad for myself in there. I try to say no to delicious cakes and tidbits cause meals are more important. I say no to bf who wanted movie last night, cause tickets are cheaper on Tues for GV members! And I'm in debt, but thank goodness my debtor is Mich (: Everyday's between work and home, even today, a saturday.
I never want to be in this kind of depressing situation again! ):
And for now, I find confort and get to satisfy my craving for Gelare waffle ice cream with this DIY one..
Last but not least, my presents! THANK YOU ALL! (:
