After 3 failed attempts to go bowling tgt, we finally managed to do so tat day.
Sat's crowd at Marina Square Bowling is crazy.




the bowling alley isnt as empty as it looks in the photo. it's swarmed with ppl, teenagers esp. i feel old juz standing there... -_-

and it's been long since i last held a bowling ball. i think the last time was 7 years ago, coz i dun rem bowling when i enter JC. so the balls juz felt freaking eff-ing heavy!

like, how the hell did i manage to lift those up when i was bowling in sec sch?!?!?!?!?!
or mebbe it has something to do with my almost cui-ed arms due to swimming and squash the days before.






and we are damn freaking lousy. pls dun laugh at our scores. we tried our best hee...




i was so cui in my first game, i almost didnt wanna see the expressions on the spectators' faces. i bet they're all sniggering at me. luckily i was dressed down in top and shorts, tgt with nerdy spectacles, so mebbe i can pass off as a sec sch kid? den at least it's not tat dui lian having all my balls rolling down tat hateful gutter at the side... haha...

aft some coaching from les, i improved by more than 100%!!!!! yaaaays! still lousy i noe! -_-




the shoes smell...

went for dinner aft tat, pasta de waraku has cheap main courses but freaking expensive side dishes.

their food is good tho, i gotta admit... they've like 1001 choices for pasta and pasta sauces, i always take damn freaking long to choose, but i think i juz found my all-time fav pasta sauce tat nite hee...

went to Breeks for desserts aft tat coz les was craving for ice-cream. from wat i rem the last time i was there (in JC), i think their standards drop by 200%. i'm serious.

i so love tat restaurant last time... but now, ermmmm passable only lar...





it's always a must to go sentosa at least once during mid-sem break. it's like a place to escape from city life u noe. tat's like how pathetic, but oh wells, spore is too small to haf urban, rural and city areas... haha...




i could juz run around the beach if it wasnt for this grp of ppl standing at the side tat keep staring at us.




played frisbee and volleyball, all thanks to mark for lending me his ball...

2 ppl playing is of coz not as fun as playing in a grp, but when it comes to sentosa, i'm always too lazy to jio ppl... coz alot of ppl around me are either scared of the sun, or dun like to play outdoor sports or find themselves "too old" to be going sentosa.

for the past 2 years, ever since we turn 21, everytime i suggest clubbing or sentosa or the likes of them, it always elicit the same responses from frens...


wah lao! 22 is not TOO OLD lor, for goodness sake.
no wonder sporeans are always so boring, whilst the westerners are always so fun-loving and jovial even in their 50s...

there's no such thing as too old. if u expect urselves to live till an age of 70plus, u're juz 1/4 through ur lifetime, and u find urselves too old!??!? everyone shd be young at heart, no matter wat age they are... =)

unless u're above 60... otherwise anyone below 60 will not be TOO OLD for anything.

i've digressed.

i think i love playing too much.
what is life if you can't enjoy urself to the fullest?




the sun was superb tat day, tho i think lester was secretly complaining abt it... haha... i love the sun lar... as long as it's not strong until it'll give me heatstroke, i welcome the heat anytime! =))

went to cafe del mar aft tat... the pool is sooooo clean coz it's a weekday and minus all the noisy rowdy teenagers who always bring loads of sand with them into the pool, it was a total bliss to be soaking our warm warm warm bodies in that pool of water.




actually he was sitting there waiting for me to come back from the toilet, but he looked so lost and vulnerable! haha... i think this picture is nice =)




met his fren who was working at cafe del mar. and i'm kinda glad i didnt work there eventually coz the management looked very strict, there's no place or time for slacking even when there're no customers to serve.

anyway i hate their management. inefficient piece of shit. bleah!






i was so tempted to eat Hog's Breath Cafe coz the menu looked so good and after looking at my fren's photos of the steak there, i've been having a humongous craving for steak. arghhh!

it sucks to have craving for expensive food, coz u noe u prob wouldnt wanna spend tat much on a meal. why can't i juz crave for KFC?!?!?! whyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

den we saw this steamboat place behind Hog's Breath Cafe in ViVo tat was having buffet dinner for students at $13.90++. sounds very affordable but their choice of food is so limited!!!

i think tian tian huoguo will be better, albeit the lack of air-con.

we settled for Marche in the end. overload of potatoes and carbo. -_-

aft tat, it was dessert at Ben&Jerry's with their mocha brownies milkshake!!!! it was so nice okay.






i had a milkshake in Ben&Jerry's USA, and it was so nice! and the person forgot to collect my money and i forgot to pay up too.
so in the end it was kinda free... haha...

i had a belated vday present from my mom.
yes, my MOM.
she's so cute haha... she knew i love sunflowers alot so she took some from her tuition kid's house who was planting sunflowers.




i wanna plant sunflowers too!!!! next time when i have a house, i'm going to line the corridor outside my house with pots and pots of sunflowers. so many sunflowers tat anyone who walked past and saw them will smile in spite of themselves.

i can't do tat at my hse now coz my hse already looked like a garden, thanks to my dad. hahah...

9) Sentosa with Lester (which killed my arms even even further)

11) Going out with yongxiang
12) projects
13) NATAS fair cum East Coast with lester
14) projects
15) SMU Waikiki Volleyball Competition
16) projects

Despite the fact tat it seemed to everyone tat i've been having a blast this mid sem break coz i kept going out, tat's so not true.

this, is by far, my WORST mid sem break EVER.

ever okay. like the worst among all 8 midsem breaks tat i've had.

every nite when i come back from wherever i've been, i'll be rushing projects all the way till morning like 4am. argh.

and looking at my schedule for March, i think tat month is going to be ABSOLUTE HELL.

something consoling tho.

i received in my email inbox today, an email from my P&G boss, tat i'll be starting work on 19th May 2008!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

yaaaaysssss!!!!!!!! at least tat made it official. i've been kinda worried the past few days coz they haven contacted me since i signed the contract regarding my first day of work.

19th May is alittle early i agree, but they wanted me to start on my first project asap. and i'm excited and really really really scared. really.

anyway there's like this huge amount of debts plus NUS loan tat i've to return ASAP before stoopid bank start charging me interest.

and i guess it's a blessing in disguise tat i'm not going Europe for grad trip. if I had planned Europe, i would have bought the air tickets already, den i would have to cancel it coz there's no way i can go Europe and come back in time for 19th May.

now, i'm hoping lester's VIP will settle asap den we can go Australia. yipppeeesss!
