Just peeps

It's such a rare chance for Zy, Kl and I to work together. Fortunately, Kl joined in earlier than me. Same here for me, but I'm only working here for one day. It's a very tiring job I would say. You will be standing aside and giving out lotus seed non-stop. Ooh lah lah, some uncles would even tease you at times. Well, I just can't be bothered about them. There was one whom even touch my hand when I gave him food. Eew, I pull my hand back immediately. Haha, I guess such situation was rather normal. You should expected that when you are working in this society.

Auntie Jenny was great, she even brought us plum juice. We even stole bites from other stalls. It's tiring yet happy working environment. Laughs.

After work, we took bus home together.

I remembered having nightmares on lotus seeds while Zy woke up in the middle of the night checking if there's customers who wanted to try lotus seeds. Haha, what a greatest joke of the day.

Peeps.

Nights everyone.

Cheers,
Jeanne

Worthwhile?

I found a job after 19th Feb. A learning centre had decided to employ me; but it's hindering my thoughts. It's assignment based. But I'll be earning 25 bucks per hour. I gonna think hard about it; because teaching is exactly my interest. Furthermore it's not easy to fit their requirement.

Fortunately, I had the requirements they are looking for. It's a good chance to learn, but I need a permanent temp job. Shall continue to look for jobs till 19th before I could make my decision. If I got into NIE successfully, everything shall be alright. If I happen to got into SIM, good luck to my wallet. I will have to fork out 20-30 over thousand by hook or by crook.

Sincerely pray hard that everything is gonna be fine.

Good day everyone.

Cheerios,
Jeanne

Musketeers Play

It's another Tuesday, 2 more weeks to school holiday. Most importantly, I'm still jobless. I'm so worried that I can't get a good job with great pay. You know; it's all about money in the world. You will definitely die faster without a fixed salary. I better control my spending; and I did. But I just can't save. My total assets isn't sufficient to be withdraw at all.

Anyway, met up with Cassan in the late afternoon. Here, we decided to watch Hachiko. I had always been waiting for such a touching dog's story to be screen in cinema. In my previous trip to Japan; due to doing reseaches, I came to know the Story of Hachiko. He's a loyal dog who waited for his master despite any weather. His master died of heart failure, and never returned. This loyal dog waited for his master 10 years despite sunny or rain.

Witnesses watched him wait and came back at the same time every evening without change for 10 years. The dog died later on outside Shibuya Station at Tokyo which explain his statue being built there.

Overall, I conclude that this is a nice and touching story that taught us loyalty. I rated it 5 stars. During movie, I saw girls weeping badly busily wiping their face. Tsk tsk, a scary sight after the movie end.

Next, we went to walk aroung ION.

We shopped over at Zara. Here's the photo(s).

At Topshop.

Next, we went back to 313 since Cassan have not visited the Forever 21. She always thought it's 2 storey, in fact it was 4. It's been a real long while since we met up. That lazy Miss Lok, was just to lazy to meet up with us.


Photobucket

After shopping, we decided to have Marche for dinner. It's my first time, and Cassan became my tour guide.

Photobucket

We were on the 3rd in the waiting list. There was this couple, who just point to the list claiming that it was their name (when it wasn't). Without knowing, the staff who just took over the position let them in. This pissed another guy off who told his girlfriend to leave because of such unfair treatment.

Well, I don't think the fault lies with the staff, but the couple. It's like sort of no sense of shame to cut people queue in this way. It's a horrible action to anyone who's queueing in front of you.

May I know, what has Marche got to do with Cow?



Photobucket

The food search begins...



Photobucket

We ordered their daily special pasta with mushroom sauce.



Photobucket

Chicken breast fillet with brown sauce & Mash Potato.



Photobucket

During chit chat session, Cassan was full of rubbish. I was asking her how many semester she need to pay her school fees. Guess what?


She said "15 semester" (and each 3K, before we started off)


I said " 15 semester in 15 mths?"


And she continue to claim it that way which I thought was a little ridiculous. LOL. It was then she woke up from her sense. Imagine if her parent is paying 3K every sem based on every month. This can kill easily. Hahaha. It's alright, let's just stick to her way of "payment".

We took 700A back. It's so convenient to be living only blocks away and I just can't understand why we meet up so less often. Boo. Qiuyun lives right behind my block and Cassan is just a few blocks away. Anyway, we meet up just to have a chit chat session.

Qiuyun was telling to lean our head on the table. She wanted to hide her t-shirt(which I find nothing wrong with it). Haha. Anyway, it's no point hiding. Just scroll to the above. It's almost everywhere. Laughs.

It's super uber crazy camwhoring session. There's more to go, but I better not. If not Qiuyun will faint. She had already knew this posting outcome.

We ended our day after Cassan went Qiuyun house to borrow a dress. That's about our short meet up for the day. Good night everyone and have a good day. Yeah!

Updates

I've completed my travel logs on Hong Kong. Although I receives feedback through MSN, saying that I'm lying about losing my Day 5 pictures. Mmm, so be it. No one believes me, except claiming that I'm lazy. These people arh, tsk tsk. Haha. Anything you say. *Hear no evil*. Anyway, it's just Hong Kong somewhere I had been to. It's not my first trip either. You can't be expecting me to be so hyper in blogging. The previous Japan trip I blog for nearly a month as well. It's about the same logic.

I promise to blog faster with high efficiency next time round yeah. I'm hoping to go USA and Korea by this year or probably next year. USA can wait a little longer since it's going to a big project for me. This will all depend on my working or studying hours. As you see, I'm graduating soon. I can't possibly be as free as I am now. Adults woes.

I might be going to Taiwan if I happened to have some short holidays. Looks like I'm taking off some advantages of Chris. He had friends in Taiwan, Japan, USA, Sydney. WOW, I'm so amazed. I'm praying that he had friends in China, Korea, Paris, Melbourne as well. Alright, I sounds bad. Maybe, a little with guilt. Ignore me, if you can't read my mind. Laughs.

I had a tiring day at IKEA. Nearly slept throughout a day to replenish my energy. Imagine FYP's just ended and we are going through so much. Anyway, I have updated the logs.

Desire buys

I've found my favourite Lip Gloss finally. I've tried many other brands, Revlon works the best for me. The gloss seems to last longer for me. I had dry lips and dehydrate easily (because I don't drink water oftenly). Some lip gloss might just cracked on me. This is fabulous. I'm trying to get a new one. Yet, I could hardly see the colour I've previously used.

Currently, most of the outlets are selling pinkish colour. This is a really great product and I strongly reccomend it. Friends, please let me know if you happen to see something light. Thanks.

News

Concrete-encased high school girl murder , Joshikōsei konkurīto-zume satsujin-jiken was a 1988-89 incident in which a Japanese girl, Junko Furato, 16 at that time, was murdered. This incident has a high level of notoriety in Japan.

Murder of Junko Furuta

The Hello Kitty Murder in Hong Kong refers to the case of a night club hostess who was kidnapped and tortured in an apartment in Tsim Sha Tsui in 1999. She eventually died over a month later, either by drug overdose or at the hands of the abductors. The woman was decapitated and her head was inserted into a Hello Kitty doll, hence the name of the case.

The above(s) had been blog for references purposes for extra knowledge to the news. A form of sharing. You can avoid reading if you think you might not be able to take it. Hence, such stories deserves our acknowledgement.

After reading the stories, I wholeheartedly felt sorry for the girl(s) who had suffered throughout such torturings. This had reminded us to be wary of people around us whether good or bad. We should protect ourselves.

Just clearance

FYP presentation's finally over. It's just like getting some huge rocks off your shoulder. Glad to have Ah Soon and Edward Hsu evaluating us, since they are famous for being "Kind". Not sure about the "kind" of extend they can go to.

Mr Edward Hsu has a very strong accent which gave us some difficulty in capturing his question. Overall, everything aren't that bad except Ah Soon who kept smiling to himself non-stop. No ones know why. There could be 2 reason.

1) Either we went bonkers, seeing wrong things.
2) Or he went bonkers, imagining his own things.

Seems ryhmes? Okok la, a little.

Just had a hair but last night, and the behind had not yet been seasoned. Think it needs about a week, since it's layer. It gonna seasoned by Chinese New Year. It's coming real soon and I expect a min of 500 bucks this year. Pray hard man.

Photobucket

We entered the room rather early; before the evaluators arrived. It's good to be this way. At least, we aren't rushing. Everything had been peacefully set up before we get started.

Photobucket

Over, over, over.

No more FYP, No more overnights, No more stress.

Photobucket



Photobucket

Off we go in 168 to IKEA @ Tampines.

The driver was driving real slow. Our camwhoring on bus disturbed a Bangaladesh sitting infront of us. Oh my goodness, he was dozing off violently. I had never seen such violent sleeping position. His head was swaying...

Left, right, left, right..... LEFT! (BANG)

After a few minutes, he did it again.

Left, right, left, right..... LEFT! (BUNG)

Oh my goodness, I saw stars above him.

Meatball & Salmon.

Photobucket

It's uber crowded during weekends. I'll be damn glad if Christopher can drove me here. No shutter bus ride and no squeezing on bus. Love car like mad, because it's mad convenient. But then again, he's in NS. Weekend is equivalent to "death". I don't think it matters if he has or has no weekend.

Isn't it the same?
Lying on bed, sleeping from Fri, Sat to Sunday. Most probably, he just wake up for his meals and off for gaming again. You know...

That's how typical guys/boys are. Or maybe not. Just him. This sounds worst instead.

Photobucket

Laiyan desperately want her own room. Out of desperation, she amazed me by clearing the room in 1 week time. This include "indirectly" throwing her bro out of the room. Anyway, her bro was nice to do some packing for her. Shifting from one cupboard into another cupboard.

Photobucket

Alright, Yan was quite jinx.

The mirror she want was out of stock.
The wardrobe she want was out of stock.
The chair she want was out of stock.

Poor us, still got to manually carry the raw materials out of shelves at IKEA. Anyway, she bought everything with 600 bucks. It's considered a great CLEARANCE.

Next, I missed my bus. Boo hoo, make a bus how I went home? Haha. Ahem.

Alright, my log shall end here. Good nights everyone. Mmm, I mean morning.

Have a good day.

One last stop.

It's FYP day. Yay! The final last stop to everything. May Ah Soon and Edward be friendly for the day. I KNEW IT! He gonna change into a different person, LOL. Going Ikea later. Boo, cause I'm having gastric pain. Tsk tsk.

Have a nice day and good luck to everyone having FYP presentation for the day. Bye.

Volunteering Work

Actually, I had previously made thoughts about joining Friends of SGH. I had seriously about it; and I realised hindrances and obstructions. For instance, FYP shall be the main reason that had stopped me from joining. But everything is over now. 3 more weeks to school holidays and I'll be working, joining NIE or maybe permanently join the society. I've more freedom and free time to do what I want.

I wanted to learn and help the needy(s). I'm not pitying them, I just think that they so deserve what they yearn for as well. I respect their braveness. Everyone's equal. There's no such thing called inequality unless you yourself decided to look down upon yourself.

I'll be officially submitting my application form once I found a job and manage my time better. Hence, I encourage people who are interested to click on the picture (directing to the website) for more.

Invasion

I just came back from downstairs when I opened the shoe rack and spot numerous pairs of shoes. Oh my goodness, nearly half of the shoe rack had been invaded by me. Furthermore, I just realised my Zara heels isn't the highest. In fact, I had 4 1/2 inch one. I'm so amazed.

I gonna restrict myself not buying more than 2 pair of shoes/heels this year. Restrict restrict and restrict before my dad's getting a new shoe rack. Boo...

Have a nice day everyone!

Still running

This flu virus is never ending. Popping 2 panadol every 6 hours control my pain. Popped 2 in the morning, another 2 in school. It's great, I felt better between 3 to 9pm. Everything was fine until I reached home. Panadol's losing it's effectiveness, here I am with my runny nose again. Got to pack more tissues to school tomorrow. Boo...

Trying to get back on my feet.

I'm such a sick cat. I had been suffering pricking gastric pains which persist for nearly a month. Despite numerous pills I popped, the sharp pain seems to be controlled only under medication.

Yesterday, I did spring cleaning for my mum. Probably due to fatigue, and allergies to dust particles; my immune system surrender despite me wearing surgical gloves and mask. It was about dinner(last night) when I felt a drying sensation under my throat with some itching. I gulp 2 spoonfuls of cough syrup and took 2 lozenges. Nothing works for me.

This morning, I popped 2 flu panadol (when I usually take one). The problem doesn't seems to resolve. I can't feel myself getting any better. My nose dripped non-stop like a running tap since this morning. I've used 4 packs of tissues (which I seldom does). Now my temperature was 39. Using cool fever to subside the fever. I hope I can get back on my feet by this Saturday.

Because 23rd Jan was an important day; FYP presentation. I can't afford to fall sick. I can't speak up if my sore throat persist. I got a damn feeling that I'll collapse this Friday. Most probably dragging myself to school on Saturday. After every FYP, bad symptoms surfaced one by one. Trust me, my predictions' accurate most of the time.

Good luck to everyone whose working real hard for this FYP2.
May your presentation goes on smoothly.

Cheerios,
Jeanne

Accusation

I no longer know what I'm angry with him about. His actions and attitudes towards everything seriously disgust me. Even if he apologised again and again, instead of lessening the detest; I hate him even more. He had no clue how bad his attitude was. Not only bad attitude toward his friends but bad attitude towards his work.

His repeating accusation towards us disturb our mind. Nevertheless, the flashback was so strong that I could exactly remember each horrid deed he had done.

He better not screw it up.

Note: I'm not refering to my boyfriend in this post, please don't misunderstood. It's definitely not refering to any of my readers. Hush. It's just some personal ranting.

Have a good day!

Travel addicts

Ohhh, I wanna go travelling. It's kind of addictive. I just can't stop thinking about countries that I'm interested and curious of going. I stalked Chris's buddy photos about Korea. Oh my goodness, it's fabulous. They went all sort of places, taking the best plane and having the best food.

They even went for snow-ski, visit to Flower 4 shooting scene. They enjoy the real snowing environment and play with snow balls. I'm so interested in all these. But I doubt I can enjoy to such a max if I were to go on free and easy. I did some enquiries and realised his bud went with tour. Of course, not any budget tour. Got to be something real expensive.

Well, family of 5 cost 20K plus. On average, one person will have to pay $4000. It's just the package, not including your personal shopping and food. It's damn expensive to me. Seriously expensive. I wonder when I'll have that kind of money to enjoy such luxury travelling.

Booo, I doubt I can never save up the amount on my own. It's got to be 7K if I aimed to save. So sad. Anyway, after running through some doubts, I have decided not to go repeating countries anymore. After doing some calculations, I realised the cost incurred in my number of repeats is enough for me to go US. Boo, shall save for other countries. Tsk tsk.

Travelling requires real great spending.

Sushi Making

It's Sushi Making Day. Not forgetting to mention, it's a terrible nightmare to me. Previously, I've made once with Cassandra. This time round, amazingly it was a success for me. Everything was much more properly wrap and I found a great technique to make my work easy.

Always prepare a plastic gloves for yourself, apply white rice vinegar and rub against. This will prevent rice sticking onto the plastic glove you are wearing.

This is the best technique I ever had. The previous time I did this with Cassandra, our fingers turn wrinkly after wrapping for sometime. Try plastic gloves, you will love it. It's gonna keep your hand away from sticky rice and vinegar.

Not much photo(s) actually because I stupidly forgotten to take a picture for my finished goods. Nope, I mean product. Too much Manufacturing and Logistic lesson I guess. DIY, it's considered not bad. Alright, take care everybody.

Shop and Eat

Chinese New Year approaching, here we go; bringing my mum to town for shopping. Before that, we had lunch @ Fish & Co. We thought of having Manhattan for lunch initially but it was too far from our destination. Make do. It wasn't that bad either.

We shared a Seafood Platter for 2. Well, 3 person sharing actually. The portion was damn big.

Nights everyone.

Once in a blue moon

Mmm someday, a day I can't remember when. Christopher brought me out for breakfast. That's consider ONCE IN A BLUE MOON. He's behaving like an absolute lazy bum ever since he enter NS. Most of the time, he whines about aching and falling sick. It's rare.

We had breakfast @ Swensen. Wow, I like their breakfast. Too bad, CWP Swensen does not operate for breakfast hour. Wasted. Anyway, taste great.
