X'mas 2009
Tis the season to be jolly, fa la la la la, la la la la!! Merry Merry Merry Christmas!! X'mas this year cannot be any better. As usual, we ate too much, drank too much, spend too much on presents, and of course, laughed too much. The only thing we did not overdo this year, is taking pictures! Yes! Even I can't believe it! We seem to be losing our touch. Was looking back at last year's X'mas post.. we took close to 400 pictures. This year, we probably took half that number. But they were happy pictures. :)
I'll save the X'mas pictures for another time. For now.. Presents!
From my Bay bee and Sam (i must say the picture doesnt do the dress justice. the dress is very nice in real-life)

From my Touch Waist

From my Lao Gong

From Vernon

From Hor Fun (I swear my heart stops beating for 2 seconds every time i see the package)

From Stella

From Hayley

From Juliana

From Kelly

From Michele

From me (yes, I gave myself a gift. haha)

And of course, from my hairy monkey - The world's best cookies (according to him that is... And... I agree with him, which is why i am NOT sharing. :) They are MY cookies. haha)

Merry X'mas from all of us!


Auf Wiedersehen~ Frohe Weihnachten!

Updates!
Phew! After what felt like FOREVER, the Interpol event is FINALLY over! 11 days of non stop work is scary, and crazy. I have a whole new view of weekends now - I have decided that i cannot live without them.
So.. Have a number of things to update. Shall start from the most recent.
78th INTERPOL General Assembly
I think this is by far, the busiest, scariest, craziest, and not to mention most irritating event I've ever done. This is madness I tell you. This event took up ALL the time I had for the past 2 weeks. I almost wanted to say a little thank you prayer to Guan Yin Ma when i found out that next year's Interpol will be held at Qatar, and not in Sg. *does a little dance around the room*
I dont think I want to put up any pics of our booth in case I get into trouble. It is afterall, a super High security event. I don't want find myself in a situation where one minute I was happily blogging and the next I'm in jail.
I DO have one picture which I think should be okay to post though. I just find it damn funny. So we were supposed to submit a passport type photo of ourselves for our passes. THe Interpol organisers were very strict about us submitting photos due to the high level of confidentiality and security of the event. Everyone submitted their passport photo except me. :) I don't have a passport type photo in my comp, and I was lazy to scan the one I had at home. So i search through my comp and found a pic which I was able to crop off everyone. haha. I was the only one with THIS kind of pic in the pass.
HaHA.

Anyways I'm am glad the event is finally over. 6 more events to go before the end of the year. I hope I am still alive to welcome 2010.
Mooncake Festival 2009
Then sometime back we celebrated the Mooncake festival. As per tradition, we met up to carry lanterns, eat mooncakes (and supper) and talk nonsense (we were each supposed to come up with a joke/riddle but as usual, ahmah was the ONLY one who was funny. She's born with the funny gene I swear. She doesn't even TRY to be funny. She is just funny. Its a waste she's not in Liang Jia Ban, which dear friend and I have been trying VERY hard to persuade her to join) We then gave up on the idea of exchanging jokes after Vernon shared a very NOT funny riddle/joke. I dont think it even qualifies as a joke coz NO ONE laughed.
Getting ready to head out!

At east coast park Mc Donalds where the fun begins! Oh, yeah, I recycled the lanterns from last year.

I picked this lantern SPECIALLY for Vernon. PInk! He loves it.

Me with Mine

Everyone's lanterns

Then off we go to parade at the beach with our lanterns!





Then one by one our candles went out. So.. we went for supper. HAHA. This is also tradition, in case you were wondering.
Look at the outrageous amount of food we ordered, as usual.


Some Random day at Kev's place
Can't remember when this was but i suspect it was one day before Mooncake festival. I vaguely remembered showing everyone the scars the cat gave me while I was playing with it when I was over at Kev's place. Everyone says the cat hates me. I believe that the cat was PLAYING with me. Yes, I truly believe that. hmph.
The cat in various obscene positions. Dont ask me where's the white cat. She doesnt seem to like me alot. This I would admit.



Pinchos
Then even a longer time back (I think), dear friend and I met up over a friday, after work. We noticed a pattern about the both of us. Everytime we meet up (when its only the BOTH of us), we tend to.. overdo whatever it is that we plan to do that day. For example if we planned to go shopping together, we will end up OVERSHOPPING and OVERSPENDING. If we planned a lunch/dinner date, we will end up OVER EATING (sushi tei, ding tai fung..) So, I guess its no surprise that dear friend and i OVER-DRANK at Pinchos. What was supposed to be a calm and cool night and a bitching session over a bottle of red ended up to be a drunk and stupid actions night.
We started our night at Ion. Can't remembered if we had dinner together or what.
At the toilet at Ion Orchard






Then we head over to Pinchos where we made friends with the manager and ended up having free wine with him, which eventually led to us being drunk. We havent been SO drunk and high in a long long time. We woke up to a MAJOR hangover the next day. In fact, the hangover was SO bad, it lasted till Monday (at least for me) Lesson learnt - dont go drinking alone with dear friend. :)
AHmah's Yeye's Birthday
Despite having a MAJOR hangover from all the wines we had at Pinchos, I managed to dragged my ass out for a MJ session, THEN to ahmah's place to celebrate Yeye's bday (where i did a lot of weird things, and said a lot of weird stuff)
The first weird thing happened over dinner. We were having steamboat. So ahmah fished out a couple of prawns from the boiling soup and placed them onto my plate, then she took a couple for herself. Still high and nursing my hangover, I immediately picked up the prawns and started peeling the shells as though they were taken out from the fridge instead of the boiling soup. Before ahmah knew it, i had finished both prawns. She looked at me with amazement and asked 'not hot ah?' And my answer was 'no leh'. I think I developed 'tie sha zhang' overnight. This went on a few rounds with her looking at me and me oblivious to everything besides the prawns on my plate.
Then after dinner, we watched the F1 race. That was when I did the 2nd weird thing. I was staring at the tv and watching the cars zoom past without much interest. Then I made a comment which had ahmah asking me if I was alright. I said, 'actually, the F1 cars not very fast what~'.. I know. WTF. Yes. I had no idea why i said that. Ahmah's response was 'shuiyi, 200++km/h.. why u think its not fast? Hor fun drive 160km/h you already scared like shit.' HAHAHA. All I can say is.. I was still having a hangover.


Jewel so cute!!

I know my hair is messy. I was having a HANGOVER!

Auf Wiedersehen~

Exciting Weekend.. or Not
Went to conquer the Triumph sale with dear friend and her sis on Sat morning. Great finds! Panties so cheap! Bikinis so cheap! Everything is cheap! Very satisfied. Very happie. haha. Bought 2 sets of bikinis and 5 panties. All for less than 50 bucks! *proud* For those who are thinking '50 bucks considered cheap??!'.. It is Triumph.
Check out my finds! Can only find such cheap stuff at a sale!

Headed to Bishan Junction 8 with dear friend after conquering the sale. Kept going to the atm to check my account balance. Knn. Pay not in. I had 44 bucks in my bank account, and another 20 over bucks in my wallet. Bought something for cousin's baby, bank left with 14 bucks. Nb. Though I was left with almost zero dollars in my bank and wallet combined, I was happie with my achievements. =)
Met Kevin in the evening. He came and picked me up in his bike. Took my 'virgin' bike ride. Its fun (minus the hot weather, the heavy helmet, the uncomfortable seat, the burns).
We got lost while trying to get to his place from my place. I KNEW the way. But the act smart man went to make a wrong turn, and there was no U-turn, so somehow we ended up at WhampoA. What was supposed to take around 20 mins took double the time by the time we managed to make a U-turn. Arrived at MountbattEn after much screaming (from me of course), and i burnt my legs (twice) while trying to check my reflection in the side mirror. Pui.
Looks more like a birthmark than a burn..

Caught a number of movies at Kev's place.. Italian Job, Role Models, Body of Lies (Kev fell asleep during the first half, I fell asleep during the 2nd half - the thing is.. it wasn't a bad movie! We must be getting old) Then I got emotional watching Kevin play with his cats. So sweet. *sigh* I must be crazy.
Momo in an obscene position

Was supposed to go to cousin's baby shower on Sunday. Since it rained the entire day, father decided to stay at home and not go over to cousin's place. So i did what I do best - Sleep.
And that's how I spent my weekend. Exciting.... or Not.
Auf Wiedersehen~
Sidenote: Knn.. Ahmah pointed out all the spelling errors in my post. And it all involves road names. Nabei. At least I can pronounce them! Kevin pronounced Punggol as 'Pu-Gol'. HAHA

Random
I realised that the collage on my blog has too few pictures. Since I am so free, I redid another one. Much better this time I think.
Ok. Its either my internet connection, or the Internet (in general ie) is screwed. Alot of my web pages have been in html format recently. First, it was facebook. It took like 3-4 days before I could see the 'normal' version of facebook last week. I've been logging in to my facebook account and browsing every page in html format. I can't even untag ugly pictures of myself, and I can't comment on any photos because the damn 'comment' button was nowhere to be found. Knn. And now, as i am blogging this entry, I am doing so in html format as well. I can't find the 'Bold' button and somehow, 'ctrl B' doesn't work! So, if i wanted to bold my text, i have to type out the bold command LITERALLY; with the <> and the Bs and the //. Same goes for the italics (whatever the spelling). Well, at least i see the 'Publish Post' button (I shouldnt even be calling it a button cause there is no button. But what the heck).
So I went over to Kev's place last night. Movie night. Caught Hangover and State of Play. The Hangover was surprisingly funny. And dumb. Actually, more dumb that funny. The things they do are so dumb you have to laugh. I can't say the same for State of Play. I fell asleep, on the couch. First, Russell Crowe is not nice to look at. Sure, he's a good actor, but..... mmmh.. Let's just say if they had used George Clooney instead, I wouldn't have fallen asleep. Then, the whole story was long and draggy. Not to mention dreadful. I didn't see how the show was, but i suspect its somewhere along 5 hours or more. It felt like 5 hours, and more.
Eh.. I was supposed to just be changing my collage, instead, I ended up blogging. Mmmh. Ook. Let me then end by saying that my car, condo and candy and SUPER cute. Haha

Finally...
I logged on to blogger, only to realised I actually have 3 draft posts which I started writing since last month and they're all half written. HAHA. I've been getting alot of 'ZZzzzzZzzz', 'your blog is dead'.. blah blah blah comments on my tagboard. Knn. You think blogging is so easy? As if I snap my fingers and the words just come. *roll eyes*
Ok. After dunno how many donkey months. We finally, finally, finally went Butter Factory. We're not OUT anymore! We're IN! haha. Mmmmh.. Butter's.. not bad! Actually, its quite good. 'cept that the drinks and cover and a bit on the expensive side. But no worries! We have 'Sebrina'! and Christine! The name 'Sebrina' will get you in free, and the name Christine pretty much gets you free entry to every single room in Butter. Oh. You get 1 for 1 too if you're Christine! =) Just tell the servers/bouncers/cleaners you're friends of Sebrina/Christine (i would choose Christine coz she's the boss) and you'll enjoy unlimited benefits at Butter Factory. But terms and conditions apply of course.
So.. Photos!! Its been a long long long time since i last had photos to post! haha
At Starbucks outside ButterFactory

Underpass at Fullerton Hotel


Ok.. One thing about Butter.. Its got to be the COLDEST club I've ever been to. The fan was 'blowing' full force at us the entire night! For the first time since.. forever.. We were COLD while clubbing. Its one thing to not feel hot. Its another to be feeling COLD. Its not as though we were just standing there and not moving. We were! We were.. sort of dancing. haha.


Very excited that we are at a new place! In other words.. Very Sua-ku. HAHA


Ahmah is VERY happy. Just look at her smile~


And of course, we ALL have to take our individual 'head shots'. Its tradition.



Dont know why mine is taken from bottom up. Cb.

This is what we call '2 jugs walk the whole world'. Do your own translation.



Then SC bought us a round of Jagerbombs. The Red Bull kept Ahmah and Fw up ALL NIGHT. Me... I slept like a corpse. So did Christine. I almost wanted to puke when I saw the server bringing the glasses and shots and Red Bulls out.
Our expressions are enough to describe how we're feeling..

Frowning away...

I think Christine is the only happy one.. Way to go babe. You should drink more next time.. since you like drinking so much.

Actually, come to think of it.. I was quite happy as well. Though the girls and SC ganged up against me to make me drink.

We left Butter at 1.30am, with 2 very full bladders (Christine and me), and entirely sober.
