A New Oink

Seeing Double

100 animals a day.
Eyes glued to the screen. Fingers poised expectantly over timer buttons.
Forehead creased with intense concentration.
Eyeballs felt like they've been charbroiled for 6 hours, rubbed with salt, then chucked back into their crusty sockets.
I can do this. I must. I will. Grrrr.
Faith. That's all it needs (And a truckload of luck too).
The goal's so close that I could smell it.
Just gotta stretch my arms a little further, no matter how much it aches.



Piglet Year

Happy piglet year!
And yes, do NOT ask how much I ate. Sinful, sinful.

And what better way there is to welcome it with new year fish?
(Seriously, there are such things? Oh my)



Either that, or with street processions in the neighborhood.


At least it's great to be back home:
Mahjong on a makeshift table (think blanket :S) & Cina karaoke @aunt's...


Steamboat & JDs served on a mixer (yeah, I wish haha)...


And quality time with the babes of the family (& dad of course).




Asean gang NY

Glad so many made even after ages apart.
Ah those memories in NJ :)
(Pictures courtesy of Shy)




And whoa, Cj gets domesticated!




Rockers NY

Still thick-skinned enuff to gatecrash their ny outing, ohohoho.
Ended up getting hooked to the Buffy boardgame, running around slaying vamps & demons.
Or attempting to, with Baileys in hand. *Hic*.


Also grabbed this off Ah Boo's during supper @Cafe Cartel.
(I am still not lao enuff k, *sniff*)






Archiveds

Finally remembered to upload past office pics.
Who says scientists can't have a lil fun too? ;)


BBQ Galore

One of the many, by the poolside.


Without forgetting the precious booze, of course.


Throw in a pole climber, and voila, absolute entertainment.



Wig party

The many things one can do with headgear.
At Claire's farewell party.


Spot the afro bosses.


The giraffe, the kermit, and the kilt.


Girls gone creatively, narcissitic.



Clubbing

Db O


The boys.


The girls.


And the cows go moo.


Smooches anyone?


Glowstick mania @Toby's bday party.



Woei-Shin's Wedding

The lovely couple & the bunch of JB adventurers.
Congrats!


The furry ones, and the psychedelic pulsating blue beacon.


Before: scrambling for makeup on the bus ride & After: larger eyes (hopefully).


Yaaammm ssseeennngggg~~~



Chrissy's Engagement party

Another beautiful couple. Congrats too!
The celebration came complete with Roche truffles & pink champagne. Oooo.


The gang, and a failed attempt at the James Bond pose, haha.


Toby's proudly balanced beers.
Can you do that to?


More random poses.

A Little

If only today was a lil longer.
If only tomorrow comes a lil later.

If only the weekdays are a lil shorter.
Then those weekends would be a lil closer.

Reflection

Begawan Solo
(Regu A, NUS)

Got this off Adi's Indon gang performance.
Amazingly beautiful rendition of Begawan Solo; just had to share it to the world heh.
Bravo!





Caroller's Medley
(Kent Ridge Hall Acapella, 2006)

I see myself, I see myself!
The KR Acapella singing a Caroller's Medley @Timberland, Vivocity.
Good stuff ;)




You're Beautifool?

OMG, what a way to remember my final year in KR, lol
This was an unforgettable showcase by the A block final years as a token of remembrance to the hall residents.
The aim: To make a bloody fool of ourselves. Success.

Their rendition of James Blunt's "You're Beautiful (I'm Bloody Gay)"
Hilariously brilliant!

Garden

I see flowers in the garden. I think.
It's gonna be a beautiful day.



(Updated bit)


Malted Milk

Finally managed to drag a few Rockers & Jin down to the Old Brown Shoe to watch the blues duo Malted Milk.
Ah pek Victor was on fire with the blues guitar as usual.
The singer (watshername = Anjana) was pretty impressive for a raw talent.
And they featured guest performers Surath & The Harmonica (watshisname = Kelvin "Smokey" Ng) guy.

Dodgy videos are up on multiply:
Malted Milk (Original)
Malted Milk (ft. Surath)
Malted Milk (ft. Harmonica Guy)



Rockers in action: Surath & Ah pek



Jin and I. Thx for coming along dear!



NgeeAnn Poly Tv Show

Crashed Soongfee's Media & Film studies studio while volunteering to be a salsa labrat for their TV show project.
Had to check out the funky equipment and all.



School of Media & Film studies, and the Grafitti wall.



Soongfee's current proj: TV studies



The students hard at work with the props n cam



The control/editing room (i think)



The Runaround

Finally took pics! *smug look*
The interior at Stickyrice was superb.
All maroon and black. I like.
Unfortunately, the silly phone cam couldn't do justice for the chic red glow.
This'll do, for now.

For the curious, check out their new branch @Raffles City :D


Stickyrice. And the Red bar, drool


The food: Thai. Pretty good, yum.
The company: Fantastic.
The atmosphere: 80s ballads? Lol at least someone's happy with tt lah.


Barley. Extra Tall.


Stumbled upon a novel sight at Bugis:
Recall the pedestration crossing btw Seiyu & Bugis Market?
The island was overflowing with ppl such tt the traffic wouldn't budge. At all.
Funny how the crossing further down was deserted. Lol.


Push & budge


Bugis market itself was also ridden with humans.
Hate crowds. Got sweaty too. Grr.
But it was worth the Puma bag & the Rugged tee.


And look! Giant Buns!



Randomcity

No introduction needed.


Had to post this poster's version of Crash. Powerful words.
Yet to rewatch it though, heh.



Who's the piglet? :P



Woah, birdcages still exist. Cool



Seriously, egg tart ice cream? :S

Irish A Levels

This week wasn't close to perfect.
(And my monitor died. Dammit.)
But then on the brighter side: It ain't bad either.

Shouldn't think too much.
It skews one's expectations of things anyway.
Maybe there was nothing less than the way things are.
Smile. Attempting.


At least this helped a bit in cheering me up.
Wish I was in Ireland to take such exams, heh.






Been looking ard for these funky Nike weights.
Sooo pretty. But it's apparently out of production.
Will have to scour the island for the last few pairs then, sigh.

Felt bad for making Silly Shi Li lug the wrong pair of weights ard town just to return it the next day. My bad for the miscomm :S
But I love the Adidas top in exchange. Muahahaha.
Thx babe!

Week 1

This is it. And it better be it.
Goddamn validation model's been driving me up the wall for months.
This time, the bugger'd better be nailed. Grr.
Crossed fingers. Toes too.

Sigh, the days've been crawling by so slowly.
Can't wait for the weekend to come.



Veron's Bday

Celebrated the fashion guru's bday with the smsu peeps last week.
Nice ambience. Food, err, edible. Barely lol.



Aerin's @Raffles City. Complete with fountains.



The fashion guru & her glam cake, heh.



The unforgettable Aerin's fluoroscent green drink.
Diabetes guaranteed.



Pacific Coffee

Ploughed Suntec over the weekend with Shi Li & Adi.
Came across a drop dead gorgeous hunk.



In complete silver. Peugeot 407. Drool.
I want. I want. I want.



Stumbled across some pretty flowerpots. And electrifying.
Fine they're pink, but they ain't tt bad :P



Plonked down at Pacific Coffee for supper after a night of loitering and keyboard searching.



Swanky old school interior *thumbs up*.
They even had a bookshelf of retro books like Beano comics!
Whoa haven't seen them for eons



Best of all, they serve low-carb ice blends :D



Salsa Nite Out

One of the rare gatherings with the Salsa3 (aka SherryTreeFriends) gang,
since many have left for overseas. Sigh. Miss you guys lah & the zany activities.



What would a STF outing be without the usual booze collection? lol



The whole nite was spent attempting Guitar Hero.
Dammit, I suck at it. So much for being a novice vocalist. Haha



Close up of what Guitar Freaks is about.
Similar to DDR / Arcade games, you gotta hit the right buttons at the right time on the frets.



The cool poolside and interior. Just like a resort :D



Couldn't helped being intrigued by the abstract portrait.
Does it look like someone familiar?



Guild House Bbq

One of my most embarassing times. Ever. Lol
But it didn't matter, did it?
Gotta remem to take pix the next time.



Randomcity

The usual.



Reminder: Buy cheap beer before 12am.



Why somethings are better left to M'sia.
Note the fluorescent color of the cendol. And what are those other stuff??



That was Xmas: Red Balls.
And now: Red Lanterns.
Smart ppl. Good for budget saving huh, haha.



Interesting ad on rapes in marriages.
Apologies for the dodgy pic. Too dark lah.



The things ppl do for self-amusement.
But really, crosstitch on a moving, bumpy bus ride?



And the best of all,
G-strings for sale at a 7-11 near you.
Buy one free one. Unisex too. Lol
