* Monday, April 13, 2009 * As the Europe trip gets nearer and nearer, i'm starting to fantasize about all the other cool places that i'll have to visit before i die... i'm usually very excited everytime i'm about to go on vacation, be it a short nearby one, or a long far far away one... but the last i've been THIS excited was for USA. and now europe. shioks! I've always believed that money earned is meant to be spent. Of coz, putting aside a sum for the necessary practical purposes such as marriage, house, kids etc... but aside from those, the rest are meant to be spent. I don't think i'm a spendthrift. In fact, i'm definitely not one, and close frens of mine can testify to that haha... i think the most expensive thing i owned (aside fr electronic gadgets such as laptop, camera etc) is a pair of levis jeans which i bought on sale in bangkok for less than S$100 and a guess bag which i bought in USA for less than S$100 too. Not too bad, for a working ger eh... hahhaha.... BUT, as long as it's for vacation or travelling, i'll be willing to fork out any amount. I think experiences are invaluable, esp after i went for 3 months Work & Travel in USA, i even more hold true to this stand of mine. And to pay $1000 or $2000 (or even $3000) for such an experience is so totally worth it. SOOO!!!! Here is a list of places i'll LOVE LOVE LOVEEEEEEEE to visit!!! And i have a plan, which i've started since i started working. Every month, i take out $300 from my pay to deposit into this separate bank account, which will fund all my vacations! so in a year, i will have $3600 which is more than enough to go places! And then there's still the bonuses heehee... So every year, i want to visit 2 places. 1 long holiday at some far far away exotic place, and 1 short holiday at a nearby place. For long holidays... 1) USA -> Florida, Miami, Niagara Falls, Mexico 2) Egypt 3) Turkey 4) Brazil 5) Japan -> during the sakura period! 6) Europe -> Spain, Amsterdam 7) Europe -> Greece, Russia, Prague 8) Puerto Rico / Costa Rica 9) Carribean Islands 10) Holland/Norway -> to look at Northern lights!!!! and short holidays... 1) Boracay (yes i know i'm going in Apr, but i'll love to go that place again with Les =P) 2) New Zealand 3) Australia -> Sydney 4) Maldives 5) Hong Kong 6) Vietnam/Cambodia See... the above will prob take me like 7 or 8 years to complete... but looking at them gets me excited. Believe it or not, making this list and thinking about it and looking at all the photos on the internet, makes me excited about the years to come and more motivated to work harder too. Because if i lose my job (*TOUCH WOOD), all these will go to dust. So anyway, i was googling all the above places, and omg they're alllllll sooooooooo amazingly beautiful! So beautiful okay. And i know there are alot of beach spots in my list, i love the beach! and i so love beach vacations! I saw photos of Maldives. it's unbelievably beautiful. Maybe i should put this list on FB, then frens who are planning to go will ask me along hahahha... i'm sooo soooooo glad that my dearest boyfren is as playful as me, and as into travelling as me =)) * Sunday, April 5, 2009 * Friday Night Had a small gathering with the JC peeps, it was actually supposed to be bdae surprise celeb for one of my frens there... we ate at Cafe Iguanas!!! because me and Cai loves mexican food alot, and it's usually one of us (well, more often her than me haha) who organises the outings haha... i love the decor! in fact, i tink most of the restaurants and pubs along Clarke Quay have really nice quaint decor. while waiting for the rest of the gers to arrive, we were talking about marriage and how so many ppl around us (who are our age, mind you) seemed to be proposing to their gfs/getting engaged/queueing for a house etc. it's so scary. and so unreal. because i still can't imagine myself or ppl around my age getting married! and where did they get all the money?!!?!??! at the rate i'm spending money on vacations, i think i'll only have enough money to get married like 10 years later or something hahaha... we ordered a strawberry margarita jug to share, and their magaritas are really nice, and cheap too! because it was happy hour, there was a 40% discount. and you'll be so spoilt for flavors! they have like the weirdest flavors ever! like blueberry -_-''' anyway i've never been a fan of margaritas, but theirs is really nice, not too strong but still you can taste a tinge of alcohol there. lin run and i shared a steak fajiata and a plate of calamaris! the waiters were carrying these sizzling platters and serving other tables, and the smell of it is just too amazing to ignore. but it's pretty ex, and plus the serving is soooo huge! so we decided to share! and god, i love the guacamole. =D all in all, a supa dupa filling meal. but it's so much fun! coz we were talking about vacations and the different places to go etc... it got me supa excited about my upcoming boracay trip and Europe trip! and they kept asking me about USA and which places are good to go etc... i really miss that place! as i was telling Les, next year we have to go back there, because i'm DYING to go back to USA and also i want to visit Florida and Niagara Falls. . . . Saturday Afternoon Met up with Les late afternoon in town. Usually i'll stay over in his hall on friday nights. but he has been so busy and swarmed with FYP reports and work and Command stuff =(( Like i always tell him, hall is always taking him away from me. Argh! anyway! we went on a shopping spree!!!!!! wahahhaha, or at least i went on a shopping spree. okay, more on that later haha... we went to this Chinese restaurant for dinner. it's at the top level of Heeren, and surprisingly i was craving for chinese food. When it comes to food, i'm very much a westerner. i love fast food and potatos and pasta and steaks and fish&chips etc etc. But anyway, the restaurant looks really good from the outside, so we decided to give it a try. I think it's pretty new... the place looks damn atas, more atas than it actually is. Their prices are actually cheaper than Crystal Jade. Sometimes, i think Crystal Jade is pretty much over-rated. oh wells. he loves loves LOVES chinese food by the way, i always tell him he's a China Ah Pek at heart. hahahah... and the food!!!! Hainanese Chicken at S$1!!!!! :: Siew Mai Grilled mushrooms wrapped in cabbage :: Bee hoon with roasted duck and egg The food is sooooooooooooo good okay! it's damn satisfying. and the bee hoon, omg, the best ever! the soup is damnnnnnnnnnnnn freaking nice! and it's so huge, it's more than enough for 2. Anyway we went back to his house after that for the night. he showed me his hall command videos of his dances. Yes, he's dancing! and it's damnnnnn hilarious. i couldnt stop laughing lar. i HAVE to get a copy of those videos from him next week, it's going to keep me happy for weeks to come hahaha... and he even gave me a live performance of his dances. Needless to say, i was damn entertained. =P Anyway i bought him this small soft toy to cheer him up, coz i know writing FYP report is really tiring him out. Damn cute right!!!!! he's like how chilled out on that humongous drink can. hahaha... Anyway my shopping spree!!! or half of it, i'm too lazy to take photos of the rest coz it's really too many. and THESE are courtesy of my company. wahhahaha. THANK YOU! you made my day! =P that's a guess handbag! my current handbag has been with me, for like what, 4 years?!?!?!? so time to change =) i'm not those kinda ger who'll spend alot on handbags, or buy one every month or so, so everytime i really do buy one, it really makes me very happy =))) anyway i had $160 worth of Taka voucher given to me by my company, so the above costs me $0. i even had remaining voucher left, need to spend them on a new pair of heels. This is the best kind of shopping spree ever hahahhaha... Every Dec, my company will give $160 worth of Taka voucher to each employee, as part of the holiday gift. So i was thinking, every year i can buy a new handbag at $0!!!!!! how cool is that hahahah. OR OR OR! i can accumulate 3 years worth of $160 vouchers and get a COACH bag for free! shioks lar, and the best thing is, there's no expiry dates on these vouchers. Speaking of which, i cant believe tomorrow is Monday again..... zzzzzzz.... * Saturday, April 4, 2009 * I'm currently in love in love with this SONG!
