Long weekend - Gone!!

2009-06-09T10:06:00.002+08:00

I was browsing the Straits Times online earlier, realized that the nation had changed the Deepavali holiday from 15 Nov (Sun) to 17 Oct (Sat), after verification with the Indian Almanac.

S**T!!

That means, i have to work 1 more day. Coz, 16 Nov (Mon) is no longer a holiday in lieu for Deepavali.

Spring Cleaning

2009-06-06T16:35:00.002+08:00

OK!! It's time to do some spring cleaning to my blog.

I apologize for not blogging on time..

My Yuan Yuan had been nagging at me for being lazy to update my blog. She says it is filled with cobwebs now. So I'm here to do some spring cleaning and start afresh again!!

Meanwhile, just wait for my long overdue updates on my Taipei trip, King's birthday and many other random stuffs..

Taipei, here I come

2009-02-28T15:45:00.002+08:00

I'm so excited.

Heading to Taipei in 7 days time!!!!!!!

*Our honeymoon again*

I'm so looking forward to pack my luggage!!

Hopefully it isn't very cold there!!

I will bring back loads of pictures.

Allergy?

2009-02-21T15:46:00.002+08:00

I think I'm allergic to examination.

Whenever there is test or exam, my headache will come!!

According to the doctor, it is stress!!

Well, whatever it is, I'm going to study hard for my International Business Economics module. I still need another 62 marks from the Exam in order to score B, 72 marks to score an A.

**********

My King is making his way down from his house to meet me for dinner. And I'm going Changi Village for "CURRY FISH HEAD".

The curry fish head at that particular coffeeshop cost only $10. It is yummy too..

1 Down

2009-02-19T20:46:00.002+08:00

OK, 1 paper down!!

1 more to go, and I can say, "Hello, Taipei!!"

**********

Financial Reporting Paper went off rather fine for SECTION B.

I'm supposed to do one question from Section A, B & C each. And a 4th question from any section.

So.. I did 1 qn on Section A, 2 qn on Section B & 1 qn for Section C!!

I'm so going to score full marks or almost full marks for SECTION B. But, I'm so going to do badly go Section A & C!!

*boo hoo hoo*

Hmm.. what's done cannot be undone. I need to score 72 marks for my exam paper in order to achieve an "A" for this module, but I think it is rather difficult to achieve now!!

Exams are just around the corner

2009-02-18T00:20:00.002+08:00

I'm on leave to study for exams!!

I simply just hate exams. But no choice.. I have to study!!

Up to date, I had paid $19k with my own pocket money, and this is the only push factor that makes me going forward.

Sponsoring for my own studies isn't easy. I had to save at least $1k/mth for school fees, given the humble salary that I had, I'm glad that I had made it for 2 years. From next semester onwards, I'm in my 3rd year!!

I'm feeling so stress now for my Corporate Finance & Financial Reporting module. The theory is so dry, practical is so numerical.

Exam is on 19th Feb, I have to work really hard!!

*Wish me luck*

Wishing all my classmates luck too.. =)

*shall go back to my calculator & books now*

Relatives Outing to Zhou Kitchen @ Amoy St

2009-02-15T23:26:00.003+08:00

I'm supposed to be studying in the afternoon, end up, I was too tired and I went to bed.

Had a date with my relatives tonight at Zhou Kitchen for Ala-carte Buffet.

The menu that I seen online, makes me drool. =)

Most of the food that we ordered were delicious!!

This is the 2nd time the King & I visited Zhou's Kitchen. The 1st time was at Jurong Pt, and we found that the ambience at Far East Square is much better.

And we were so FULLllllllllll...................

At the same time, we were celebrating for my cousin and his gf's birthday which falls on 19 & 18 Feb respectively.

Happy Birthday, Desmond & Zhi Yin!!

Happy V Day to ALL!!

2009-02-14T23:52:00.003+08:00

It's a Valentine's day on a beautiful Saturday.

However, my saturday does not seems any beautiful. I had to work full day, from 9am to 6pm. But still, I'm looking forward to knock off to meet my KING!!

I have a surprise for him. He didn't know that I will be getting him any present, as we had said beforehand that we will not get pressie for each other.

I bought him a watch that is so 'Limited Edition', it is so difficult to source for one, as most of the watches outlet had sold out that piece of watch.

The King was waiting for me outside my 'container'. Waiting for me to knock off from work so that we can rush to Harbour Front Centre for our Cruise Dinner.

Then he presented me, a bouquet of BEAR-WERS. They are not FLOWERS, it's BEAR!!

I'm totally in love with it. And my bear-wers attracted lots of attentions from the public. Maybe because the bouquet is too big!!

There are a total of 18 bears in that bouquet!!

I LOVE YOU, DEAR!!

We were in the cruise. It is a total different experience that we had. Out in the sea for dinner.

The entire interior is being decorated with 'heart shapes' ornaments. The King called it a 'Love Boat'!!

Getting tired of staying in the 'Love Boat', we went out to take photos!!

The photo below, is taken when my camera lens is filled up with water vapour.

To end it off..

I had a good time with my King even though I'm really tired after a day of work.

I LOVE YOU, MR. LIM!!!

Thank you for being there whenever I needed you. You made my heart sparkles.

Dinner at Fullerton Hotel

2009-02-08T23:11:00.000+08:00

I have never been to such a posh place for dinner before.

*OMG*

The King & I had planned to go there for their SEAFOOD buffet, since I had $50 voucher to spend.

The hotel actually serves 2 different types of buffet on different days, International and Seafood.

The variety of the food isn't much. However, the food were all so FRESH. I'm in love with the prawns and the crayfish!!

You can see that, we are really enjoying ourselves in such a posh environment and good food.

Venue: Fullteron Hotel

Price: $48++

After dinner, we were both too full.

So.. We decided to walk walk around, and I was fooling around too.. =)

We walked from Fullerton Hotel to City Hall MRT Station, just to digest our food and kill some spare time.

Overall, I will recommend Fullerton to people out there for their fresh food selections and the atmosphere.

AND, go with an empty stomach.

人日

2009-02-01T23:04:00.004+08:00

Ok.. Today is the 7th of Chinese New Year or better known as 人日.

So.. It's our BIRTHDAY!!

To celebrate our 'birthday', the King & I had steamboat at home (prepared by my mum).

*Yummy*

**********

Tommorow will be my 1st day of work in another company of my current boss. So from tomorrow onwards, my job title will be 'Public Relations Officer'. Going to deal with alot of residents in Toa Payoh Central, where the upgrading is.

CNY

2009-01-29T17:13:00.003+08:00

I had not been blogging for quite some time. Been real busy with school and CNY.

On CNY eve, I went to River Hongbao with the King in the hope of catching fireworks. However, to my disappointment, there is no fireworks display this year, only fire crackers.

CNY Day 1

Usual practice, head to my maternal's grandparent house. Nothing much to do. Just receiving ang baos, eat, gamble and talk.

The King made his way to Bedok to drive me to Bukit Panjang to visit his maternal's grandparents. *Kinda Shy*

Day 2

Again, to my maternal's granny house to pay respect for my grandmother. Then went to my ex-colleague house to gamble. =x

Met my King @ Pasir Ris for movie and dinner.

Dinner was @ Manhattan Fish Market.

Chinatown

2009-01-19T17:09:00.007+08:00

**Updated**

I'm going to Chinatown later.

The King is coming down to find me after his work and we shall stroll down to Chinatown from Raffles Place to feel the Lunar New Year mood.

Too bad, I didn't bring my camera along.

I feel like eating 'hei bee hiam' so much. I shall go there and buy!!

**********

I'm back from Chinatown. We had our dinner at Swensen's @ Chinatown Point.

It was my treat! =)

Headed to the 'festive area' in Chinatown. The crowd is not as bad as what I had expected. Bought my 'hei bee hiam' too.

My toes were so pain that I decided to go back.

I was so silly that I took the NEL towards the wrong direction. =(

I was from Chinatown wanting to head towards Outram Park to change a train towards the East. But..

We headed to Clarke Quay. =( Wrong Direction.

See how silly am i?

Happy 6th Month!!

2009-01-18T22:43:00.006+08:00

Ho ho ho..

As the title has shown.. The King and the Queen had been together for 6 months.

For the past 6 months, one thing that the King had did without fail was to send me a wake up/good morning message at 6.30am sharp from Monday - Friday. *Thank you Dear for your effort*

**********

Met him at Tampines Mall today to get my Crocs shoe. The Crocs is going to be put to good use when I'm at my new workplace. =)

Went to Isetan Tampines to the Crocs counter. Compared 2 designs, and also the colours. Eventually, I got myself a pair of pink colour Malindi. The vain King had also got himself a pair of slippers from Crocs too.

Yes, your eyes are not fooling you. The King had bought himself a Charcoal/Pink slippers. =) I think he is being influenced by me..

Anyway, the pair of shoe is sponsored by HIM. *Thank You!*

**********

We came back to my place and spring clean my room. The King was willingly helping me to clean my window that is full of dust. *Thank You again!*

Cleaned and wiped every area of my room and, I guess, it is sparkling clean now.

I'm all ready for CHINESE NEW YEAR!!

2009-01-17T22:33:00.005+08:00

It's Saturday again.. ^.^

As usual, spent my Saturdays with the King at his place, and Sundays at my place.

Met him after his work and we head to Chua Chu Kang's Lot 1 for late lunch at Ajisen.

Went back to his place, and I witnessed a session of 'Pig Slaughtering'!! *Refer to the King's blog for more information*

**********

Chinese New Year is just around the corner, and I have yet to spring clean my room yet. I shall do it tomorrow.

Wish me luck

2009-01-16T20:12:00.002+08:00

Am on half day leave today.

Well, I was forced to clear my leave. Nothing much that I wanna do this afternoon.

So... ...

I went to Toa Payoh, my new workplace, to look around and find the actual place of my working location. *Yes, I'm changing job soon.*

After that made my trip down to my camera's 'hospital' to pick up my sick camera.

I'm a happy girl now with a healthy camera.

**********

Actually last week, I had received a news, before any of my other colleagues, that created a mixed feelings in my heart.

Sad:

I knew that I'm going to lose my job as my landlord does not wish to continue the lease at my current working place.

Happy:

My current boss had offered me a job in another company of his. I'm really grateful to him and I don't know how I can really show my appreciation to him. Given the current economy, he is still able to give me a pay increment as an incentive to move over to his other company in compensation for having to work on alternate Saturdays for a full day.

And I took up the job offer. =)

Thank you BOSS!!

Wish me luck in my new job. Going to start my new journey on 2nd Feb 09.

Tired

2009-01-13T21:25:00.002+08:00

I'm so tired.

It is only 9.23pm now, yet I'm feeling this way. Force myself to update my blog with a new entry about my wonderful weekend. =)

I shall be going to sleep soon..

**********

There are some things I wish to say.. But I don't know how to express my feelings. So I kept telling my colleague, Kelly, 我有苦难言！

All I can say is.. Stop throwing everything to me!!

Paper cut

2009-01-12T20:01:00.003+08:00

What is the first thing that will come across your mind when someone mention to you, he/she got a paper cut??

Slight cut on the finger that comes along with itch and pain??

Creepy feeling??

I'm very prone to paper cut, I'm not sure why. Maybe my flesh are just too tender. =x

Since last week, I had been helping one of my tenants to do some direct mailers. Had been folding papers, slotting them in to envelopes, sealing the envelopes and pasting stamps. The direct mailers are not very little, they are about 700++.

Through this process, I had 'gained' several paper cuts. Mostly minor ones.

However, today is not a lucky day for me. I had a DEEP cut by the envelope. =(

Almost wanted to cry after I see my own blood gushing out.

The below picture may look a bit gruesome.

Well.. It is 8.10pm now, I should be heading to the airport. Meeting the King at Terminal 3 for Popeye Chicken.

Wonderful weekend

2009-01-11T23:48:00.004+08:00

Weekend had came to an end.

I detest Mondays.

Anyway, I had a good weekend!!

11 Jan 09

Trained to Bukit Batok to meet the King. Went to Jurong Point (JP) after that. We reached there at about 4pm and we only left the mall at almost 10pm. =x

Went to shop around JP for CNY clothings. Wanted to buy a pair of heels, a bra and a skirt.

However, I only got a bra from Triumph. Not a fruitful trip after all.

We actually wanted to go Kuishin-bo for dinner but both of us think that it is too expensive. So we went to a new restaurant that we both never tried before.

Let me present you.. Zhou's Kitchen..

Quite a good spread of dishes they offered and it is buffet style. So eat all you can at $28.80++ during weekend dinner.

Then we trained back to Pasir Ris to catch midnight movie - Passenger.

I don't quite like the show because I don't really understand what is it trying to say. =(

The King then went to my place to sleep over.

12 Jan 09

Woke up at around 11am, then woke the King up. Ask him to accompany me go Din Tai Fung with my mum and relatives. It was my treat!! ^,^

After that, we went back to Pasir Ris - Downtown East for movie again.. Yes.. Again..

Caught Red Cliff 2 this time. I like the action parts.

After movie, we dragged ourselves to Orchard to send my camera to 'hospital'. It had been 'sick' for quite sometime le.. There was no queue in the service centre. Good huh..

Walked around Orchard, landed myself in Xin Wang for dinner. Actually wanted to go airport for Popeye Chicken, however, Xin Wang happens to be just right in front of me.. So.. I chose Xin Wang! Ladies are fickle minded.

How I wish, weekends never come to an end!!

Backpain

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

My back was so painful that I need to go on MC today.

It hurts no matter what position I am in.

Bend? Stand? Lie down? <-- All pain!!

**********

Nevertheless, the backpain did not deter me from finding more information about Taipei today while I was home alone..

There are so many night market in Taipei. I'm considering to take a 'bullet train' from Taipei to Taichung for a day trip. But I will see how la.. The ticket to Taichung is not cheap ok. SGD35 for a one way trip.

Taiwan

2009-01-07T11:36:00.002+08:00

Hmm.. International Economics test went off quite well, but I'm not sure if I'll score well. Anyway.. It's ok, I know I had did my best.

**********

Singapore Airlines is having promotion now which attracted me to book tickets to Taiwan.

Fares all in for a return trip to Taipei cost only $596.

Yes!! I had booked my Taiwai trip already.

I'm flying by Singapore Airlines. So happy!! It had been a long time since I last flew on SQ.

Dates settled already. Decided to push forward from May to March. =)

Can't wait to May le..

I'm flying out of Singapore on 7 Mar 09, returning on 12 Mar 09.

6 days 5 nights.

Stress

2009-01-05T23:19:00.003+08:00

STRESS

is the right word for me to use NOW!!

I'm feeling so

STRESS

over International Economics!!

Lazy..

2009-01-04T19:15:00.004+08:00

Okok..

I better start blogging now before my blog is filled with cobwebs. Yuan said that my blog is outdated because my last entry was last year!! It is 2009 le..

I had been rather busy studying International Economics over the weekend. I know it is a very bored way to spend my weekend away, but I've to do that.

***********

Was talking to Yuan last night about going overseas during the Good Friday holiday this year. I shall keep that in mind, probably, I will go conquer my Malaysia again. Well, it will depends on my budget too.. Can't spend too much on a short trip le, coz I'm going to Taiwan. I reckon that I will spend big bucks there!!

Last year, I went with Yuan & her friends to Batam during Good Friday too. It is a good way to go for a getaway trip without utilizing any of my precious leave. =)

**********

Chinese New Year is just around the corner, and I have yet to do my shopping. I promise.. I will go shopping soon to boost the economy of Singapore!!

A fulfilling year

2008-12-31T09:13:00.005+08:00

2008 had been a very fulfilling year for me.

1. I had changed job from retail industry to a 9-6 office job.

YAnd, I'm enjoying it.

2. I had been to a lot of short trips within 2008.

Went..

YGenting - twice or thrice with mummy

YSunway Lagoon - with Yuan Yuan & Wai Wai

YBatam - twice, once with my company girls, another time with Yuan Yuan & her friends

YBintan - with the King

YCameron Highlands & K.L - with the King

**********

Now, I'm looking forward to my BBQ cum Camping tonight. It is the 1st time I'm out in the wild sleeping.

Going to knock off at 1pm later.. =)

Rushing home to wash up & get our stuffs. =)

Happy Day - Feeling Rich

2008-12-30T20:51:00.004+08:00

I received a news slightly after 6pm just now..

&....

I'm feeling rich already!!

Bonus had always been very uncertain for us, it had always been a hush hush matter within the bosses. At a point of time, I had even dropped the idea of getting my 13th month bonus.

Nevertheless.. No matter how gloomy the economy is.. My bosses had decided to give out 13th month to all of his staff. *Thank you, Bosses!!*

I already had plans on what to do with my bonus. The main thing is to save about $2k for my next February school fees..

Yeah..!! I've saved enough to pay my February school fees le..

Sentosa Outing

2008-12-25T23:30:00.004+08:00

Hello Everyone!!

How did you spend your Christmas? I spent mine at Sentosa with the King.

We woke up at 7am to prepare for our trip. =)

We bought the package at Vivo City. The package which costs us $38.90 per person, entitles us to enter Sentosa's Images of Singapore, Tiger Sky Tower, Butterfly Park and Insect Kingdom, Sentosa 4D Magix & 1 way Cable Car ride.

Our first time taking the Sentosa Express in to Sentosa.

We were like tourist in Sentosa. It had been so long since we had visited Sentosa.

It had changed tremendously since the last time I went to Sentosa.

It is so clean and green!!

1st Stop.. Images of Singapore

Can you see what we are doing? It is public hoilday, yet, we are still working..

The below picture is taken during the show. Look at the faces of the people carefully, they turned to look at one another when one speaks.

After the show, time for some adventure!!

We were fooling around in Images of Singapore, and, We had spent the longest time there.

The King was busying playing too..

He cooks, he fights, he watches wayang with the residents.

He hawks. He goes marketing. He makes Ice Kacang.

We had too much fun until we start stealing.

Look at what the King is stealing.. He stole fishes and 'ang ku kueh'. I guess he was too hungry.

I'm a little more clever than he is. =) I stole the treaty the Sir Stamford Raffles had signed..

During the way, I was caught flirting!!

2nd Stop.. Tiger Sky Tower

It is really disappointing. Nothing much to see.

For people who wish to visit Sentosa, avoid Tiger Sky Tower.

3rd Stop.. Butterfly Park and Insect Kingdom

Hmm.. The butterflies in the park are unlike the butterflies that are in Cameron Highlands. The butterflies here are afraid of human beings, they do not dare to rest on our hands. =(

Parrots in the park are well trained. Look, I even dare to let the parrot stand on my hand.

4th Stop.. Sentosa 4D Magix

Omg.. This attraction made us queued for almost an hour. =.=

Nevertheless, it is worth waiting. However, if you are intending to go, avoid bringing kids there.

We encountered 2 kids crying loudly during the show. It is so annoying.

5th Stop.. Cable Car

It is the King's first time on the cable car.

Overall, my trip to Sentosa was FUN!!

Exploring Sentosa

2008-12-24T22:52:00.002+08:00

It is about 1 hour more to Christmas!!

Once again, Merry Christmas to all readers!!

**********

The King & I had just let a coin decides our fate.

Was actually thinking of going to either Singapore Zoo or Sentosa. After we tossed the coin, the coin had directed us to SENTOSA!!

If my camera is good enough, I will come back with lots of photos!! =)

Guest appearance!!

2008-12-24T14:35:00.005+08:00

Hi Everyyyoneee!!

I'm the host for today, and, my name is Muu.

My mummy, Joanne aka Yuan, is currently out. Probably playing outside or she might be on her way home.

I sneaked out to host at the Queenie's blog!! =)

Tell you something, I had just received a gift from godma. She bought me a set of Kimono and I went to try it to without mummy's approval.

This is how I look like.. I'm only showing you my back view, because, I'm too shy!!

Frankly speaking, I prefer myself without clothes. I feel so comfortable when I'm all naked!! *shy*

Alright, I think I should really stop talking now.. I'm so afraid that mummy will be back anytime and I'm not home!!

Too much wisdom??

2008-12-23T16:02:00.003+08:00

Hmm.. I'm on medical leave today!

Had been suffering from a very bad headache and gum pain since last night. I suspect it is wisdom tooth that is popping out!!

I actually bathed this morning and decided not to go work after that coz the pain is unbearable. >.<

Went to the doctor as early as it opens, and I went home to continue sleeping till 3pm..

**********

Tomorrow is Christmas eve, knocking off work at 1pm!! =)

To the readers who are reading my blog:

MERRY CHRISTMAS

HAPPY NEW YEAR

A short week

2008-12-22T17:43:00.002+08:00

This week is a short working week, so is next week!! =)

I'm so looking forward to 31st December 2008. Going to have a BBQ session with the King and we are going to bring our tent there to camp overnight!! *It is our 1st time*

Yet to prepare the food, we will buy it on the day itself. He is on leave, I'm officially working till 1pm.

Going to spend my last few moments of the year 2008 and welcoming the new 2009 with him!!

**********

Christmas is around the corner. I had prepared some gifts, but, I'm pondering if I should give all out.

Coursework

2008-12-21T11:44:00.002+08:00

It had been a long time since I blogged.

I'm really busy at work and after work.

**********

Coursework is killing most of us!! Managed to do a little of the coursework on Thursday after work and completed all calculation by Saturday afternoon.

I'm half way through with my report. Uncle Mok mentioned that the report should not be more than 15 pages including appendix. However, my report is only about 7 pages long..

Haha... I think I'm going to do very badly for this assignment. Wish me all the best!!

**********

Met the King on Saturday after I'm done with my coursework.

Guess what did we had for dinner!!

We had cup noodles!!

After 5 months of being together, this is our cheapest dinner. =)

I wanted to eat cup noodles, so he had no choice but to accompany to eat!!

**********

Time to go out soon!! Meeting the King at Bugis @ 1320hrs..

Outing with colleagues & bosses

2008-12-15T23:03:00.000+08:00

Went out after work to Raffles City's Shodoku for our self declared early Christmas celebration and for one of our bosses birthday.

We reached there rather early, so we decided to start exchanging our presents.

1st of the list - Jia Qin --> Sharon Seah

I gave her a turtle lookalike cushion.

2nd on the list - Sharon Seah --> Lois Teoh

Lois received a winnie the pooh towel from Sharon, which is bought from Robinson.

3rd in the list - Lois Teoh --> Jia Qin

Guess what did i received!!

It is a winnie the pooh's pouch and inside the pouch, there is a book!! =.=

The book titles say, "Let Me Be A Woman" by Elisabeth Elliot.

4th in the list - Lay See --> Yam Sim

She got a glass vase from Lay See. Suitable to put flowers when she received from her boyfriend.

5th in the list - Yam Sim --> Mavis Lee

Mavis got a belt from BYSI.

After exchanging our presents, some of us were so hungry. We went to order our food without waiting for our bosses.

I was busy eating so I only managed to take this amount of photos of our food.

Our total bill was around $500++.

Now that we had done with our food, it is time to switch target to our boss, Khai.

We are celebrating his birthday in advance.

He looks really happy right??

We gave him a Gucci money clip and a loud birthday song in Shodoku. =)

A long day

2008-12-14T21:02:00.004+08:00

Yup.. Like what my title had just said, I had a long day on Saturday!!

I had been playing / enjoying too much the precious week. And I dread to start on my Financial Reporting coursework.

My day started as early as 8.15am on a lazy Saturday. Took a train down to the familiar destination that I should go..

Yes, I was the host of the day!! Haha.. I hope you guys had 'fun'.

My coursework was at least on track. I managed to figure out...

1. A decent number for WACC.

2. Completed my income statement.

3. Almost done with balance sheet.

Did my coursework till about 6pm. And it's time for DINNER...

**********

Dinner was great. The King decided to treat his family for dinner.

Venue was set by me..

Venue: Amara Hotel, Element Restaurant

It is an international buffet style. The selection of the food wasn't really a lot.

However, they were delicious and fresh..

Price: $42++ per adult, $30++ per child

I was busy eating, so didn't managed to take alot of photos.

One thing I had to say is that, the service staff there were efficient.

They will clear your used plates once they see that you are done with your food. A small bowl of lemon water, for you to wash your fingers, will be placed in front of you when you are peeling the prawns.

My pick for the night would be, Salmon Sashimi there!!

It's very fresh.

I'm Back

2008-12-09T16:36:00.026+08:00

Hi people, I'm back from Cameron & Kuala Lumpur trip!!

I have no time to update my blog.. =(

Took too much pictures, don't know which to show.

Meet the King at Tiong Bahru Plaza after his lesson, then we chiong to Golden Mile. Had to book a cab because the queue at TBP was too long, frequency of each cab coming by is too long.

I didn't know the Konsortium was at another Golden Mile building, so I blur blur went to the building that Five Stars is at. Then I called Maggie for HELP!! >.<

Got my coach ticket and seat numbers. Hooray!! It is a double-decker!! The seats were so comfortable, it was as thou as I'm sitting on cushions. However, Maggie and I were not in the same coach!! =(

Look at our excited face..

06 Dec 08

We reached Cameron at 7.00am. The journey from Singapore to Cameron is 8.5hrs. =.=

The coach stopped at a place where we can booked 1/2 day tour to explore Cameron better. Jason & I had decided to book a package that cost us RM65/person. The package enables us to see the changing colours of the sunrise.

Reached the Equatorial Hotel at about 9am. It is too early for us to check in. =(

Took out my well-prepared map to explore the area near to my hotel.

Visited Strawberry Farm & Butterfly Farm.

Plucking strawberries and eating them is definitely something that you can't do it in Singapore. Wonderful experience to choose your own strawberries. For every 500gm of strawberries you pluck, it will cost you RM20.

Butterfly Farm - Entrance fee RM5/adult, RM3/child

Managed to took a lot of nice butterflies & reptiles photos there. The King took his courage to hold on a butterfly on his fingers. And I followed the same too.. =)

There is a rose valley inside the butterfly farm too.. =)

Nice roses!! I like!! I think the roses variety is different there too.. *Thumbs UP*

Wanna find Boh tea plantation too.. However, through a very LONG walk, we still can't find it. Decided to give up the idea of visiting the Boh Tea plantation. Then we walked back to our hotel..

Yeah.. A room for us at about 1pm.

Had our steamboat dinner at the hotel's restaurant. Good time to eat steamboat in such a cold environment.

07 Dec 08

Woke up at 5am, just to see the sunrise. However, lady luck was not by our side. It was drizzling!!

Look at how cold we were..

Took a short rest in the hotel after breakfast and we are off to Kuala Lumpur!!

Before I proceed to Kuala Lumpur, this is the scenery of Cameron Highland.

Coach ride from Cameron to Kuala Lumpur is freaking long! Board the coach before 10am and we reached Kuala Lumpur at only 3+pm.

There was a massive jam in Kuala Lumpur, so the driver decided to drop us along the roadside and directed us to walk to our hotel!! It saves our time too..

May I present you 'Capitol Hotel' in Kuala Lumpur.......

K.L is a city of shopping. After we put our bags in the hotel, we wanted to head out to the shopping malls. But.. I suggested to the King that we should keep our valuables in the safe. And this is when I realised that we had lost a phone. *Goodbye U600*

We were busy shopping in Kuala Lumpur. So, not much photos were taken.
Had our dinner at Sushi King!! It's kinda cheap.. 9 dishes for RM80!

Christmas decorations are so common in Kuala Lumpur shopping centres. Since we are in Kuala Lumpur, we took this opportunity to snap some photos too..

08 Dec 08

Time to go back to Singapore.

Our coach got delayed by an hour from 3pm to 4pm. According to the coach driver, there was a massive jam from Singapore to Malaysia.

We reached Singapore at 11+pm.

Look at the 'car queue' that is formed at Malaysia custom.

Hmm.. That's about it..

My next destination.. Taiwan!!

Money $.$

It's Thursday..

I have yet to pack my bag for my Cameron cum Kuala Lumpur trip. I'm so excited now!!

**********

School is killing my beauty sleep and my money in my pocket.

Just bought a textbook that cost me $60.50 and it can only last me for the maximum of 3 months. I used my 'angbao' money to buy most of my textbooks and now.. It is depleting. =(

If you are going to ask me.. Why I do not want to photocopy the textbook?

My answer to you is that..

I never believe in photocopied text.

There is no colour in the textbook. I don't like textbooks with no colours. It is pure boring.

If I copy the textbook, I will be infringing the copyright law. I wouldn't want to be so silly to be caught with that offence.

Lastly, I can sell away my book at a discounted price after my exam.

**********

I need a part time job to sustain my spending abilities.. =)

I want to travel more!!
I'm looking forward to my Taiwan trip next year already..

Just another weekend

2008-12-01T16:15:00.006+08:00

As the title has explained, it was just another weekend.

However...

I will be looking forward to this weekend, I'm off to Cameron & Kuala Lumpur.

Over the weekend, the King and I had decided to play some childhood games at my place to kill some time before tucking in our home-cooked dinner.

This is the game that I bought. We even played bingo too!! =)

Dinner was GREAT!!

Mummy always got alot of food when the King is around for dinner!! =)

Happy Birthday to Myself

2008-11-27T22:22:00.013+08:00

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MYSELF!!

I'm officially 23..

Reaching mid-twenties soon.. *sob*

Was on half day leave yesterday. The King asked me to take half day leave on my birthday eve, and he promised that I will get surprises.

True enough.. Knock off at 2pm, I was told to meet him at Marina Square. He kept telling me that we were going to Marina Mandarin, but I did not believed him.

Till the moment he flashed the hotel room's card, I still could not believe that he had booked a room for my birthday.

So.. This is where i stayed for the night..

The room..

The view from the room..

The service of this hotel is so good.

I had my breakfast in the room and a complimentary birthday cake from the hotel and other free food too.. Everything was delivered to the room!!

Photos speak a thousand words.. I was definitely very happy throughout the birthday..

The King really made me feel like a "real" Queen on my birthday!!

This is to express my love for you..

**I love you Dear**

3rd Birthday Surprise

2008-11-23T20:11:00.004+08:00

It's 23rd November!!

Yeah!! 4 more days to the Queen's birthday.. And I received my 3rd Birthday pressie from my Loughborough University girls..

They gave me a surprise by presenting me a durian cake during lunchtime at Kopitiam. They even sang a birthday song there.. I was so SHY!!

Received a pooh bear from Princess Maggie & Princess Yuan. $50 manicure vouchers from Princess Hazy, Princess Jie Bin & Princess WaiWai..

Thanks girls for all your pressies.. Really appreciate that you all still remember my birthday.. ^_^

Misfortune

2008-11-22T23:27:00.005+08:00

Today is really not my day.

Was in the train with the King to Changi Village for Curry Fish Head.

I met 1 dirty smelly man sitting on my left. After almost half of the journey, I suddenly realized that there is a worm on his sleeve. *OMG* It is so near to me, it really scare the hell out of me!!

After the man got down the train, a China man was practically snatching that seat beside me. He simply threw his bag on the available seat in order to 'secure' himself the seat. *Ugly Chinese*

He had a strong body odour. >.<>

Couldn't stand his action, I simply said out loud "要打哈欠，就记得要关嘴！！嘴巴那么臭！！"

But to lighten my mood, I striked 4D. So my day isn't that bad afterall.

**********

Had Curry Fish Head and Kang Kong for dinner at Changi Village. The bill was CHEAP!! $17.50 in total.

Weekend is coming

2008-11-21T20:46:00.003+08:00

It's Friday night, yet, I'm at home. Just finished painting my nails, while waiting for it to dry, I decided to blog.

My birthday is coming.. I'm going to be 23 years old in 6 days time. Oh NO........

I'm approaching mid twenties... =(

After my birthday, I will be looking forward to another event..

CAMERON HIGHLANDS.. Here I come..

Hopefully, the weather will not be freezing cold, I promise to bring back loads of pictures to show all my viewer, especially Yuan. I know that she is treating Princess Maggie & I as Guinea Pigs. =x

Pleasant Surprise

2008-11-19T11:46:00.008+08:00

It's only 19 November.. And... I had received my 2nd birthday present..

Yeah!!

I like presents..

The girls at my workplace bought me 2 silicon covers (pink & clear) for my ITouch and a necklace from Helen for my birthday. I like my cover, it protects my ITouch from scratches. Thanks girls.

Corporate Finance

2008-11-19T11:32:00.004+08:00

Had Corporate Finance classes on last Sunday, Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday(today). Woot.. 4 days consecutively.

Corporate Finance is a killer. The lecturer (Ah Mok) speaks so fast as thou he is rushing to catch a bullet train. I guess he assumes that we all have strong accounting background, therefore he did not give us time to digest the formula that he just taught.

This semester, I really need alot of discipline to do some self-study. *Finance is dead* Hopefully, Economics will not kill me too..

Fruitful Day

2008-11-15T23:38:00.020+08:00

It had been a fruitful day for the King and me. We stepped out of our palace to visit a few attractions in Singapore.

Although the sky looks gloomy, it did not deter us from going to "The Southern Ridges"

There is series of intersecting trails connections Mount Faber Park, Telok Blangah Hill Park, Kent Ridge Park and West Coast Park. We explored through Henderson Waves, Hilltop Walk, Forest Walk and Alexandra Arch.

I shall let the pictures do the talking...

Was 'told' by the directory in the park that Alexandra Arch's LED light will lit up by 7pm, so we purposely walk through the Forest Walk, which is 1.2km long, at a very slow speed. The LED light did not light up even though we waited till 7.35pm. Big disappointment.

Wanted to go to HortPark as well but due to the time constrain, I will be back next week.

Headed to Airport Terminal 3 to have our dinner.. Yeah!!!! My Favourite Popeye Chicken..

**********

School is starting tomorrow, hope this semester will goes well for me.

R.I.P

2008-11-15T13:02:00.003+08:00

This one year plus, you had been very nice to me. Whenever I needed you, you are always there for me. You brought smile into my life. You make my time pass by faster when I'm really bored.

Now.. Life without you will never be the same anymore. Nothing to keep me entertained when I'm bored.

Goodbye my dear.....................

NDS Charger!!!

May you rest in peace.

2008-11-13T16:39:00.012+08:00

This is my virgin post.

Many of my classmates had been blogging and reading blogs and the constant request from Joanne aka Yuan to ask me to start a blog had mark the birth of this Queenie's blog.

I'm rather reluctant to do up a blog because the Queenie is a computer idiot. Queenie hates creating the template for the blog. =( Nevertheless, I had took out my courage to do and I'm in the process of figuring out.

*********

Well.. November is the month that I like most out of the other 11 months.

Reason..

It's approaching end of the year - bonus is coming!! (My pocket feels heavier now)

It's my birth month!! (Happy Birthday to Queenie-BabyQin)

Recently, I had a new toy, proudly sponsored by Jason's funding. Had been procrastinating whether I should own it or not, however, the wonderful features had won my heart..

And..

On 9th November.. This new toy - IPod Touch is finally MINE!! Another new member added to my gadget collections. **Thanks Dear**

*********

School is starting soon.. Queenie really dreads to goes to school when it is intensive week - weekends burn. Going to class 4 days in a row can be a killer to most of us. Wish me luck pls!!
