Baby will be overseas the whole weekend for work.
I hate it when he goes overseas for work w/o me.
Luckily this trip isnt for long.
It just doesnt feel good coz we only met up one time this week.
But anyway, it's not so bad coz...
My girls and I are painting the town red tonight!
We are gg clubbing! =)
Yippeez!!!!
Girl's Night Out!
I totally heart my girlies!
From the former Clubbing Princess,
I have became Clubbing Retiree.
I clubbed a grand total of...2 times this year!
Woah! Unbelievable considering that i used to club every week!
Ok, today is my 3rd time this year.
Yanz is a late bloomer, she has just started gg clubbing more often since last year.
*faints* but good job! =)
And LY has overthrown me to earn the title of Clubbing Princess!
Congrats! Hahaha!
Hey but at least im still Miss Alcoholic.
I still love to drink and go pubbing =)
Well, life shud still be an enjoyment even if you have grown older.
P.S. Baby said to me yesterday that he cannot wait to come back into my arms
becoz that is where he truly belongs.
So Baby come home soon! My arms are waiting! =)
*Aiyah, wat crap...it's only 2 days. I shudnt be such a wimp.*

The Retired Clubber
The Big Deal about Friendship
Finally caught the movie Sex and The City yesterday evening with Baby.
It shudnt be a show that you watch with your bf.
It shud be a show to watch with your girl pals!
But Yanz had to spoil it by being the first to go catch the movie with Ivy! =(
So the four of us cudnt go watch together.
Hahah yeah yeah put the blame on Yanz...=P
Honestly, I've not seen a single episode of the SATC series.
I used to be more of a Ally Mcbeal and Friends person.
Catching this movie just opened up my curiosity for the series.
I love the Viviene Westwood gown that Carrie wore! =)
And I abosultely love how the bridesmaids are dressed in black, blue and red.
(Gave me inspiration for my own wedding...haha!)
The reviews said that "If you've never watched the show, or you've never sipped Cosmos and hung out with a tightly knit group of girlfriends, or gazed with true adoration at a pair of $500 shoes, this really isn't the movie for you."
Well, all I can say is that this is so the movie for me!
Altho I have nvr watched the show, i can so related to the movie...
(I have gazed at pairs of $500 shoes, and $5K bags and $10K watches - IN ADORATION)
because it is all about things impt to me:
Fashion, love, and my girl friends.
For me, the part that left a long lingering after-taste was the ending.
The 4 girls were celebrating their friendship and Samantha's 50th birthday (she so totally do not look like 50!).
Toasting and laughing away...it was just 4 of them.
It reminded me of us...4 of us.
And then, they showed many other "4-s".
A group of 4 walking on the streets, going to places.
4 girlfrens within their closely knit group.
4 besties.
Suddenly I felt like crying.
Touched? I dunno.
The bond between them was so strong and I wondered if ours will stay that way till we grow old and die.
At that point in time, I wondered where we will be when we are 40-50 years old.
And I hope we can be where we are now.
The same old 4 besties.
We may be at a different age, in different phases of our lives, experiencing different problems and facets of life.
Yet I hope we will still be the SAME OLD 4 BESTIES.
Where we can still talk, bitch, complain, whine, listen, laugh, console, hug, love, and always be there for each other like before....in the different stages of our life.
I love the honesty amongst the 4 friends.
You may not like to hear wat your fren has to say to you - their opinions and advice.
But at least they are honest and they love you.
Friends gives the best advice.
Friends dun judge you.
They stick by you no matter wat and renders forgiveness no matter how sucky you may have been.
They share their things with you and are the siblings you never had.
They are your eyes when you are blinded.
They give you support when you are down and out.
They help to stand up for you and curse your bf/husband when they let you down.
They drop everything just to be there for you.
I was especially touched too when Carrie went all the way downtown
just to accompany Miranda on New Year's Eve.
It made me feel like friends will never leave you alone.
(Unless they are the zhong se qing you type -which really sucks.
I may used to be like that...i dunno.
But definitely not anymore! Not since Nic.
Maybe becoz after many failed relationships and my disappointment in men,
I grew to love and treasure my friends more.)
Another thing that left an impression on me was how well the girls knew each other's bf/husband,
such that they know wat kind of person the bf/husband is like and
hence are able to give their friends sound advice.
Like how the girls said that Miranda's hubby Steve is actually a really good guy and how she shud forgive him.
Like how Charlotte stood up firm for Carrie and how furious she felt when she met Mr Big in a restaurant,
being reminded of how he chickened out on Carrie at the wedding.
(She pointed her finger at him and said angrily 'I curse the day your were born. Really funny!)
It reminded me of how my girlfriends stood by me thru my heartaches, break-ups and when i was foolishly being cheated upon.
It reminded me of when Yanz told us what she said to one of her guy frens:
"To win a girl's heart, you shud first win the hearts and the approval of her best friends."
I've nvr really thot about it this way before
becoz i used to think that falling in love was just between 2 persons.
But it really isnt just that.
It involves your family and friends as well.
You would want them to give you their blessings as well, dun you?
That's why im so glad that the girls love Nic and Nic loves the girls =)
Yanz and LY, im so looking forward for your future bfs to win my approval!!!
Men come n go in our lives.
But it's our best friends who stay and can be counted upon.
I have had different bfs/guys in my life.
But my besties are still the same girls.
For more than 10 years...and still counting. =)
And then there are other best friends who appear from the different parts of our lives.
As new girl friends come along, I found more best friends.
A toast to my besties...
A toast to our everlasting friendship.
I love you!
Thanks for always sticking around =)
P.S.: To all my friends, esp my 4 besties, my Cands Cands, work besties, uni girls...
Thanks for everything.
I hope I can be a great friend to you as you have been to me =)

Soph's Belated Bday Dinner
Hey besties, this post is for your sake...together with the long awaited photos we took last fri.
Finally had the chance to wear my working clothes out on a Friday.
I always loved gg out on a Friday night and be one of those yuppies chilling out.
Met up with my girlfrens and bf at 7pm for dinner.
Was supposed to be a belated bday celebration dinner for our dear Soph.
Wanted to celebrate on her actual bday which was on 10 June, last Tues.
But she was not back from Hkg yet...so we postponed.
Went to Forum to have California Pizza Kitchen.
Not bad. I love oven baked pizzas with thin crusts!
Yanz brought back great pressies for all of us from Japan - the Land of Hello Kitty!
She went on a 9-day trip to Hokkaido and Tokyo.
So envious...I wished I went with her.
She got some Hello Kitty pencils, handphone/charm straps and red bean cakes for us.
Hello Kitty Red Bean Cakes!
Can you bear to bite into Kitty's face? =(
She got Baby and me a very cute Lilo & Stitch photo album
(which comes with different Lilo & Stitch frames inside) from Tokyo Disneyland!
She also got Liv and Leticia 2 cute and long bendy unbreakable pencils
which are so unique that I've nvr seen such pencils before. =)
Looks like a long candy stick.
Din manage to take a pic of it though...
Yanz took this pic.
Her photography skills are currently No. 1 among my 3 besties n bf.
Surpassed LY! Hehe.
We went to Dempsey to chill after that.
Brought them to this wine parlour called Angel's Share.
We din open any bottles of wine.
Instead we each had a glass of something of our own:
Baby: Corona Beer
LY: Mojito
Yanz: Strawberry Margarita
Soph: Ice Chocolate (non-alcoholic girl!)
N we all shared a delicious blueberry creme brulee.
I love creme brulees!
A toast!
Soph not included. For alcoholics only.
Everyone's really sleepy and tired that night.
Even before 11am, all of them were getting slouchy on the couch and yawning away.
Seems like everyone is falling asleep.
Everyone except me!
How UN-HAPPENING!!! =(
Even Baby's tired. Just look at his face and droopy eyes.
And there I am smiling - the only one who is not sleepy-eyed.
I wasnt tired at all, except that my legs were aching from wearing my heels.
I waited all week to finally meet up and go out with everyone.
But everyone was too tired for me.
So sad.... =(
Esp Soph..she's perpetually tired everytime we meet her! Hmpf!
Why besties? Why why why?
Yeah yeah yeah blame it on work.
Anyway I was very entertained with myself.
I was playing with my cammie and trying to take pics with special effects.
Nothing fantastic though but check this out!
I was so amused. Harharhar.
Well, if you dun get it, it just means we dun see the same thing or dun have the same artistic views. haha!
Did you notice the 'fireworks' across the pic?
Flaming Lamborghini? No! It's actually a tealight candle holder. Hehe.
Ok cheap thrill.
This is the toilet sign. Creative!
.jpg)
We left at 11.30pm. So early hor?
I also say.
I shud have ordered Red Bull for everyone!
Next time we shud just go out on Sat instead of after work on Fridays.
Got more energy.
Well, this weekend, I hope it's gonna be fun and exciting.
We are gg clubbing! Yay!
Cookies from Japan
Baby got his colleague to buy my fave Shiroi Koibito cookies (白い恋人) from Japan for me.
So sweet of him =)
Forgot to ask Yanz to buy me another box when she went to Japan.
Haha. Nvm lar..expensive...and fattening.
Yanz din manage to get F-Cup cookies for me and Cands!
Sobz. No more F-Cup boobs =(

Useless & Unwanted
That's what I am.
That's how you make me feel.
Im gg to be a hermit for awhile and live in my own world.
Alone.
Go away pls.
I dun need anymore hypocrisy and fake kindness or so-called words of concern.
The world is so darn plastic.
N judgemental.
N selfish.

Meanie Pok!
Baby is one MEAN & STINGY-POK!!!
He refused to give me allowance!
With my depleting bank account, I asked my once Baby dearest if he can give me monthly allowance.
I did not ask for much, I only asked for $50 a week, which is $200 a month.
He REFUSED.
He said I shudnt be spending money at this time.
I lowered to $100 per month allowance (altho it is really measly but some is better than none).
He still refused.
I told him that I will dump him if he dun give me allowance.
He still refused!
Dumb bf!
Stingy bf!
Mean bf!
Idiot bf!
Hmpf! He is no longer my Baby dearest!
Since you said your support for me is by paying for all my meals when we go out on weekends,
now I wanna eat expensive food every weekend!
Lobster every Saturday!
Abalone every Sunday!
Drink wine everyday!
All because you refuse to give me allowance!
Hmpf!

All the fun and all the food
So sad...
Baby has been feeling very tired and stressed up lately from work.
Met him on Friday but he was all tired and drained,
while I was excited and energetic.
We wanted to have dinner at Vivocity but most restaurants had snaking long queues!
The few restaurants that din have such long queues were those that were pretty pricey.
E.g. We were very tempted to eat at Modesto (almost full house but no queue)...
but I thought that we shudnt spend so much money on dinner
since we had the intention to eat durians after dinner.
In the end we roamed ard till we walked into Habourfront,
and ate at Ramen Ten!
I was so glad to have found Ramen Ten coz I really love soupy ramen!!! *slurpz*
It has been a really long time since i ate yummy ramen.
Ramen that are not the food court maggi mee type.
Baby had Chicken Katsu Don which is one of their must-try item.
Baby made me add $2 to upsize the ramen to Big Bowl Ramen coz he wanted to eat some ramen too.
See? Eat so much, so fattening!
Babe seemed to be feeling better and more recharged after having dinner.
Maybe it is the food...recharged him.
Hahaha.
We roamed ard Vivo but we both din wanna shop.
Den clever Baby said we shud go into shops where we know we wun spend money.
So we walked into Best Denki!
And...we ended up playing games at the Sony Playstation and Xbox area!
The Playstation 3 consoles (4 sets) meant for customer-play were all taken up by selfish ppl!
They played for so long and hogged the whole console, nvr give chance to other ppl (like us!) to play!
So instead of waiting, i wandered around, tested all the PSP models (about 9 display sets?),
and found one PSP model with a pretty cool game that can be played!
It is game where the player (warrior?) has to clear stages in this fantasy castle with demons and monsters,
n on his way pick up money, hearts, and powers.
I was playing happily when this stupid Baby of mine came by and said:
"Hey! I wanna try! Let me play, let me play!"
N so the PSP console landed in his hands.
From then onwards, it was NEVER my turn again.
IDIOT!
Guys are so selfish!
After playing a few rounds, he got sick of the game...
So we wondered to the Xbox area,
and lucky us, this guy just finished this street soccer game,
so we get to play!
It is some World Cup Street Soccer Game (we dunno the name of the game),
so we were very excited!
Can only choose between Brazil and England, so Baby took Brazil (his fave team)
and I took England (dun have my fave Spain), and we played a 5-aside game.
OH BOY! IT WAS SUPER FUN!
Altho Baby kept winning me =(
But it is not fair since he always plays soccer games on his PS2, and I dun.
I think I was not bad though, coz I always lose by 1 goal ONLY.
I think we played 3 to 4 matches, and our last match resulted in a 4-4 draw.
So the next one who scores a goal will be the winner.
Well...Baby scored the winning goal.
So idiotic. Nvr give me chance!!!
So result was 5-4.
I hate to lose. I always wanna win!
So I whacked Baby every time he scored.
N I think while playing, we were quite action-packed and noisy.
Excited mah!
I think quite a few ppl looked at us.
And at one point, i turned ard and noticed that there were a few ppl behind us watching us play the game!
I was so concerned that I tried to play my best!
Coz I dun wanna play lousily and lose face. Hahaha!
After about 30-45mins of playing, we decided to leave.
It was almost 10pm alry and the shops were closing soon.
So we left and proceed for our durians!
There is this newly opened durian place called "Four Seasons Durian Cafe" along Eunos (quite near Baby's house and Katong).
It is like a roadside stall-cum-cafe.
Wah but the durians super ex lar!
I wanted to eat good durians, so the uncle recommended me this hong mao durian.
I think it is more atas and nicer than D24?
So we tried lor. But it was a whopping $39 for a 2kg durian!
Consolation is that the durian was really really good, with lotsa meat and small seeds, and tasted sweet with a little tinge of bitterness.
*Yumz!*
There was a total of 14 pieces inside (I counted the seeds!) and i think i ate most of it. About 8-9 pieces. Haha!
After that, I was so super full that I felt like vomitting.
*bleugh*
Still need to take bus back somemore!!!
But luckily din vomit. Else so wasted!
N durian puke is gonna look n smell so damn gross!
Hahaha!
The next day, we went to watch Kungfu Panda (free tickets and popcorn!)
The theatre was the Grand Cathay at The Cathay.
The theatre was really nice and big!
Kungfu Panda, altho an animated film, is one funny and nice movie!
Recommended!!!
It got me laughing so hard and loudly in the cinema...that Baby was embarrased by me.
Nvm lar! Everyone also laughing very loudly wat!
Oh! N the popcorn is delicious! We seldom eat popcorn.
I think the standard has improved a lot from the past.
After gobbling up all the popcorn,
We went for buffet dinner!
My brother's bday celebration dinner.
Din take any pics coz i was too busy eating and my hands were dirty from eating black pepper crabs.
On Sunday morning, eating time again!
My auntie treated all of us (the extended families) to dim sum brunch at Happy Restaurant.
So nice! I love dim sum!
Ate till i was super full.
But I went jogging that evening!
To make up for all the pigging sessions over this weekend.
I know it is not enough, so im gonna try to jog more during the week!
I think I shud stop eating so much.
Altho I really love to eat.
One more buffet coming up this month. Baby's birthday.
Oh! And it's my Brother's birthday today!
Happy Birthday Bro!
Too bad he gotto spend it in camp. Haha!

But the food turned out really nice.
Mummy said it was nice and she liked it! =)
I cooked udon soup noodles with egg and seaweed, and a dish of teriyaki chicken.
Japnese cuisine leh! Wahahaha!
Simple lunch but looks nice hor? =)

Summer Workout
In preparation for:
1) Upcoming birthday celebrations of frens and family, that includes yummilicious food and pig-out sessions
2) Summertime! Suntanning and beach activities in my bikini...
I have been working it out to maintain my weight and tone myself up while I can!
Since 4 weeks back, I have been trying my best to go for regular jogs at the connector park,
accompanied by do-it-at-home workout sessions.
Altho I tried to workout at least 3 times a week,
well...it's kinda hard esp since it has been raining lately.
N i only go jogging in the evening else it will be very hot!
So at best it's twice a week.
But it isnt so bad I guess,
I consider it progress since i used to exercise like once in 2 weeks or sometimes a month!
And sometimes, I hardly exercise at all.
Yeah I was lying on the floor. Was sweaty and really tired.
But my stamina's building up! =)
I wanna be strong and sexy! =)
