Prawn Fishing

2009-02-22T17:27:00.004+08:00

It is Sooooooo Fun!

Expert fisherman linda and me went for our prawning date on valentines day.

Surprisingly, there are many ppl there. We are wondering y do couples spend there v day here, or maybe they cant be bothered at all.

Lucky Linda got a prawn after she cast the rod in for 30 seconds. I was super excited. but i don't dare to poke it the bait (which i called it "pork" for no reason) and linda keep scolding me and said that the prawns are "Halal". It is actually chicken heart. Quite gross looking, like minced chicken heart. But not as smelly as expected, and ya, i actually went to smell it... muahaha

After around an hour, my basket is still empty. I started cursing n swearing and acusing that there are no prawns in the pond. Linda aso did not manage to catch any after the first stupid prawn.

So i decided to move over to pond 2 which i claimed that the " kena caught frequency" is higher.

I stood beside a group of "ah bengs". They were smoking like mad, n drinking beer there, so i became a passive smoker for quite some time. That ah beng is really pro! every 5 minutes, he would get prawn.

I was struggling, dono if i shud approach him n ask him for some tips or not. i decided to do so as i have wasted an hour, as i caught nth.

So it goes:

Me: "wah, u are so good at prawning! every minute got one prawn HOR?"

Him: " OK LA, i come here everyweek MAH"

Me: "Oh, it's my first time here. One hour LIAO, i haven got any prawn yet LEH..."

Him: "IZIT?! u use what MEAT to catch?"

Me: "Oh, the chicken heart LOH."

Him: "Ai ya, U use this gao woon LA! Sure can catch one. If u use this still canot catch then i dono LIAO LA."

Me: " Erm, ok.. Thank you. Can u help me to poke the worm in? i very scared LEH."

Him: "LAI.."

After 15 minutes.....

Me: "Dun have LEH! WHYYYYYYYYY!!!!" crying out loud.

Him: " OK, Never mind, i ask my Shi Fu to come"

Shi Fu came and performed some magic to my hook and fishing line.

Shi Fu: " I confirm you can catch one la.. if caught one, how u going to reward me?"

Me: " Reward? Actually HOR, u must give me extra one hour leh, cos ur hook is spoilt mah.. i wasted an hour leh!"

Then Shi Fu tried to change topic and we started putting the bait in the pond. After 2 mins, i can see that the floating object sinking down, WHICH MEANS GOT PRAWN! OMG, i m so excited and happy. So the past 2 hours, i think i catch more prawns than the ah beng beside me! everyone at pond 2 thinks i am the expert. But i screamed when ever there is a prawn. and ah beng have to help me to remove the prawn from the hook. muahahaha, poor ah beng!

After that, mig came to join us, and we shared the fruit of our labour. haha BBQ prawns!

Happy Valentines Day

2009-02-14T14:06:00.002+08:00

Hi Everyone

Happy V day!

So-called the first Vday that i did not spend with a bf. haha Well, it is peaceful and stress-less. I dont have to think of where to go, what to eat n what to buy. Saved some money as well.

But no prezzie this year. Only a packet of "Piggy Gummy" with a post-it pad (it wrote: dear "Xiao Zhu, happy vday .... n so on..." from mark and spencer from my sweet sweet sharon. It touches my heart though. haha

Yesterday night, worked pretty late as i stayed back to help my dear Jo to finish up some stuff. n ex-colleagues from Amara Sanctuary for ktv n supper. and i realised that when Cathy sang "Beautiful Love" from tanya Chua, my heart does not feel hurt anymore. Maybe i can start sing this song. Thinking back, once in beijing Macdonald, this song was played on the FM, n i started crying. haha really LUFF OUT LOUD now!

Had super craving for Taiwan Mee Sua tt night (maybe because steph leow is in TW now, n i called her every now n then). Went to Lai Lai, hoping tt i can get my Mee Sua, but lucky enuff, it was all sold out. So we ended up eating duck porridge instead.

Tonight, meeting up with Linda n Shufen for prawn fishing n movie. Hope that it will be fun!

Have a nice day !!

Flurppy!!

2009-01-24T22:54:00.002+08:00

this is the 10th day of Flurppy's death.. still sad deep down in my heart..

When i stepped into the house, he wasnt there to welcome me
When i am alone at home, he wasnt outside my room looking at me
When i opened the door, he did not rush to the door
No barking, no whinning and no sound of his paw steps

I dreamed of him on the 7th day... i woke up thinking that he is still with me.. so sad.. n i cried

I miss u ok, my PIPI. (kiss kiss)

Then went for gathering with shufen n her sec sch fren at one of her fren's condo.. n met the legendary Song Fong Yang... He is quite a frenly chap... Maybe a good catch for Shufen. hahaha

Accident: Went Shokudo for lunch... seriously, shukudo bazaar's food is not nice at all! We had pizza, omelette with cheese n mushroom, rosti, clam chowder, milk macha n ... i cant remember. n yes! n unagi with egg in hotplate! Happily eating that when accident happen.. the soft bone got stucked in jess's throat! she swallowed a bowl of rice but still did not help to push the bone down. Poor girl with bad luck! ( miracles do happen, she went to church today and the found the bone in her mouth. Phew.... =) )

Planning: Going Cameron Highland on Wednesday, we are all going googaagaa about it (maybe except for jess who dono whats going on at all) haha. We sat the Starbucks to go thru the itinerary. Hope that the weather there is cold n shiok but please dont rain. So exited that we will be going to pick strawberries, visiting flower farm and trekking to see Rafflesia n waterfall.

Later, Linda went off for Bday party. Left with poor me n jess, the 2 loner souls who dont know what to do for the rest of the evening. Luckily we joined Mig n his fren Terence for K-pub.

Botak Jones

2008-12-08T19:42:00.000+08:00

A peaceful day today.

Had a great slp and wake up contented.

Watched one of my favourite TV programme on Chn56 - Bai Wan Da Ge Xin and had breakfast.

In the afternoon, went to Modern Beauty Salon for ear candling and massage. Then had threading and i signed up for a 10+2x free threading package at $100.

The breeze and drizzle is cooling, makes me think of beijing again. i love cooling weather.

Came back home n chatted with some frens on msn. and watched the final episode of "Miss No Good". The ending is ok only, not that fantastic. Looking forward to the next drama.

Feeling hungry, took my sweater (as it is still cold and drizzling) n went to botak jones with mum. we had black pepper chix. we thought that the portion will be huge, so we decided to share in case we cant finish it. but little did we reaslised that the portion has shrinked big time! i asked the waitress if we can asked for more fries, she said it will be chargeable. this is not the botak jones' spirit animore! Small serving and no more free fries. On top of that i order something like a sauteed butter garlic shitake mushroom. Only one comment, the poor shitake mushroom is soaked in the butter. I think i can do a better job. i think i will not frequent Botak Jones that often anymore....

Later at 9.00pm, there is Little Nonya. Super looking forward to it.

4. Capitaland vouchers so that i can get myself a pair of new black shoe for work.

Hohoho...

Hi everyone, i am back!

2008-12-06T23:13:00.000+08:00

Hi friends!

I am finally back to my blog after one whole year! ( and thus please stop spamming on my tag board, haha)

It's a brand new me now..

1. Most importantly, i am single and available. (For those boys out there who have been crushing on me, you have a chance now...)

** p/s: to that "someone"

Please do not text me or msn me when u are going to get attached! IT IS REALLY IRRITATING. and seriously, it is kind of unfair to that girl too. how would she feels if she knows her bf is still in touch with his ex. i felt furious about it man, imaging when we were together and u were also talking to other girls at that time. SHITTY.

Today i was out with half a BJG - Linda, Jess and Shufen. Watched Cape No 7. Quite a interesting show and funny too! With quite a fair bit of my all-time-favourite valgarities. Muahaha, LOL. And when we were having dinner, we chatted about "what if we see "someone and his new gf here". i was like, "hmm, like that loh, should be ok la." My god, we should sing the "longevity song" man! when we parted to go home, Shufen texted me and said that she saw "someone with his gf". Wierd feelings sneaked into my heart. If i cant slp well tonight, i am going to curse and swear big time. So next time if anyone sees him, please dont let me know, in case i will curse and swear at you.

Girls, i enjoyed myself today. i love hanging out with you guys, talking funny pics and videos. Lets go out more often bcause i am a Loner Soul now.. n shufen i will marry u if we dont get married by 30 years old, ok? hahaha

Oh ya, forgot to mention about this. During my company D&D, i tried out the Tarot card reading there. The reader said that i will get into a relationship next year, and she felt he is a malaysia.. Hai, why not a korean or a japanese.. But anyway, dono if it is true.

2. Working and not studying now. there's some change in myself as i realised. like dress sense, my thinking, the things i like are kind of different from the past. my dear frens, please do not filter (using a filter funnel or combust me) me because of this.

Talking about looks, i really look like a LCB during work. LCB Means Lao Char Bo. i looking freaking 5 years older than my real age. One of my client added me on Facebook and got shock by my real age. Huiying once said something that i felt was quite funny. She said," i think your pearl necklace add on 3 more years to how you look now." so meaning i look like 28! BTW, pearl one of favourite jewel/ accessory.

Looking forward to my 13th month bonus and going on the Cameron Highland trip with my girls.

back in singapore

2007-02-03T14:10:00.000+08:00

hi friends! i am back in Singapore! this week, i have been going shopping at our latest shopping center the vivocity and had a great time doing shopping there.

and there was aso sad moments yesterdae. i saw his hp backgrd, with a stupid green apple. which is the same as.... (shall not sae) n tt girl actually msg him to ask him out on fridae. althu i said tt i wan to let go totally, but still cant help it but to feel abit of jealousy. how stupid of me.
but he said tt, "no matter wad u think of me n her, i still like u.. i will wait for ur return.." on so touched..

2006-08-21T17:30:00.000+08:00

Many of us may envy pretty girls long silky hair, good figure n shape, wonderful sense of dressing and have their own style and plus rich. but who knows, what is hidden behind these beautiful faces? A beautiful outlook, with a bad inner self. what is the point of having such a glamourous mask? inner beauty is the best. outer beauty can bring u out the first step, but only inner beauty/personality/character can bring u far.

2006-08-20T23:06:00.000+08:00

btw i haven introduce Adrian. he is a special fren. i have no idea how we became fren, it seemed like his number jus appeared in my hp. n his number had been there for i think more than 5 yrs. so yesterdae, i felt so down, so i decided to msg this mysterious fren. n then we end up chatting online. seems like we can clique quite well la. but i m realli sorri to take up so much of his time.

conclusion: lost a Bf but Found a New FRen!

a new start

2006-08-17T16:55:00.000+08:00

17/8/2006, if we did not break up, todae is our 4 yr n 1 mth anniversary. today, our class had our ticketing test, i think i will not do well for it la. cos the essay qn is damn difficult. n after that, i went to meet sumone for lunch. it is such a sad decision that i have make. after so long and so much of dragging n indecisiveness, i decided to let go. to me love is not about being together with someone. but rather, to let him lead a carefree life with no worries no sadness. so yes, from todae on, i shal not bear ani hope, not shed a tear, stop remembering the date(17/7). i am not as sad as that time, becos i did not expect ani "return in investment". ya, i wana thank him for his effort this one month, ya, enuff happiness for me. i m grateful and thankful. hope that he can find the one he realli loves. god bless!
