HAPPY CHILDREN'S

DAY!!!! :D


8 years ago im still happily collecting
my children's day gifts!!

and now........
my turn to start giving prezzies!

spent a total of 40bucks on all the children's day presents this year!
hahahahahaha. broke la la =X

but still,
receiving the smiles and joy of the kids
happily and excitedly getting your gifts,

is the best children's day gifts to receive. :)


and yeah something that eventually,
i really wouldnt mind spending on!


haha anw, i was too bored just now,
and drew something out using paint :D

okay, dont laugh at my chio drawing.
not easy to draw with my mouse can!

cheeeeeeeeeers! :))))

4AM.
and its raining outside.

i loveeeeee it :)))))

i dont know why but it just feels particularly great when it rains at night :)

not just that it makes it nicer to sleep in.

but it simply gives me a kind of tranquil feeling,
that can instantly lighten up my whole mood
when i hear the raindrops,
when i feel the cool breeze.


and for i know,
it is always

a rainbow after rain :)

sat, sun, mon, tue.
i've 'laksa-ed' for four days!

lol okay or rather, its three days.
cause i dropped my packet of laksa while chatting on the phone with py on sat. that whole packet just burst and smashed on the floor =X

my bro thinks im crazy, asking me if i wanna try out all the laksaS in singapore is it. haha.
yet im still craving for katong laksa!! lol.
novena and queensway's best! :))
i've nv tried katong's though, (i supposed katong laksa should be originated from katong?) lol.

anw my bro is my best MAKAN KAKI!! cause the two of us can always finish up three servings of food!! for everytime i can buy at least 3 different food back home and eat together with him.

actually im just greedy la, i want varieties :D
while he is always there to finish up all my 'leftovers', making me less guilty towards wasting food :D

---

flagged a cab just now and the timer reads 7.58pm.

2minutes before the end of 35% surcharge at 8pm rahhhh!!

it felt as though stabbing my heart with a knife!!
okay, tooooo exaggerating. eh just trying to illustrate the feeling of gek-ness la hahahaha!
but anw, really gek can. these short 2minutes caused me a few bucks =X

and lastly,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to

HENG AH TARD!!!!

:D:D:D

poor girl, celebrating her birthday with her once-in-a-lifetime chickenpox!
which are soooo sporting that one by one kept on popping out to wish her (as quoted from her) hahaha.
what a 'nice' bdae gift :(

jiayou and endure the itchiness and pain dearr!! ♥

getting more and more absent-minded recently.
whats wrong with me!! rahhhh...

first, i left my cashcard which i just top-up, in the photocopier machine.
thankfully some kind soul in nie saw it and placed it at the library's counter phew. but the librarian wanted me to describe how my cashcard looks like before she can return to me when i seriously cant rmb how it looks like! like who will rmb exactly how your cashcard looks like right.
well well, im glad that i could get it back in the end anw :D

yest, i finally rmb to bring my student's umbrella to return her. but as i went to buy something at the 7eleven convenience store, conveniently i hanged the umbrella somewhere when i was making payement and just left without taking it! only rmb it when i suddenly felt my hands to be particularly empty as i alighted the bus and upon reaching my student's place.
rahh so immediately started to recall where i misplaced the umbrella! had a strong feeling that i left it at the 7-11 store. so as i thought i was smart enough to call up singtel 100 to check for the store's no.! then to know that i can actually check the receipt for the no. -.-
okay anw the call finally get through after umpteen tries. was so pissed off when the call kept on getting engaged! bet was because of the slacker indian staff there! for everytime i would see him taking breaks by smoking outside the store when i passed by, talking on his hp and ignoring the store's phone that was kept on ringing. and when i called its engaged!! i bet he's exploiting the phone and chatting with his friends. almost wanted to call up 7-11 hq or whatever to complain. haha but finally the call got through la. he told me my umbrella was there. soooo, what a relief! and i forgot all about the complaining and stuffs then heh. :D
retrieved the umbrella today, and realised 7-11's also selling the exact same kind same design of umbrella! cause the person hanged it together with the rest of the selling ones, wth. haha.

and today, i lost my bottle!!!
but heng i managed to recall that i could have left it at the dressing room where i was trying shorts. okay so im not so dumb this time, found their no. on the receipt :D and called to check.
phewww and yeah im right, i left it there. haha so shall trouble iggy to help me retrieve the bottle from the store! :p

missed the days where i dont have to set alarms =X

FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL.

and its an 8.30 lesson today.
oh what a nice start.

so today shall be the first day where i travel all the way to sch from home for lessons!
no more hall, no more waking up 30mins before lesson =X

oh well, so i woke up at 6AM!! not that i wanted though. i managed to snooze all the alarms i set for my phone, but i can never snooze my HUMAN ALARMCLOCK, aka, my mom.
she will start to nagnagnag if i dont wake up aft she trys to wake me. but seriously, i think her naggings' more effective than my blasted loud alarm noise. and she's more kanchiong than me from getting late haha. she even wanted me to print an A3 timetable to paste it on my wall, so that she can monitor me and make sure that i wont be LATE FOR SCHOOL. lol.

okay anw, thanks to my mom, i left home at ard 6.45am, reaching school at 8AM! extremely early la! haha. the train ride was pretty fast in fact. heng i managed to grab a seat! wah damn tired, plugged in my earpiece, closed my eyes and slept the moment i sat down hee :)

so while im happily in my lalaland, suddenly felt a little vibration from my bag. ahhhhhhh then i realised, my alarm from my old phone is ringing! (changed to another phone, hence using my old samsung phone as alarm, organiser and phone book as for now) nth wrong if its ringing, but when i pressed to stopped the alarm, then i realised it had snoozed for a few times!! which means it had rung for AFEW times! and its still okay if its some nice music , but its some gugu birds chirping or whatever de very-obvious-kind-of alarm sound -.- ohmygoodness, sososososo damn malu la! should have pressed my phone more discreetly, so that no one knows that it was me who kept causing the noise pollution with my gugu alarm! haha.

met hsiang for breakfast in nie's canteen. i missed the food there!! lol. and 2 wks later i think can hear me complaining about the boring food there. heh. but my day was brightened up when i saw my eye-candy while buying my breakfast! wahahaha shuang shuang :D

okay anw so i thought for the very first time im very early for lesson, in the end we couldnt find our LT and was late still -.- LOL.


went for tuition in the evening. my students just came back form msia with her family. and they brought me stuffs!! haha so when her dad passed me the stuffs,

baking baking and BAKING!


#1 nutella cupcakes.

the cupcakes without the nutella coating


finally for once, my mom said they taste nice! HAHAHAHA. shiokness~
but my dad doesnt understand why did i place those wierd silver balls on top of the nutella. while i thought it can nice-fy my cupcakes! okay and i actually went all the way to amk just to buy those balls leh -.- cause i find it to be way too plain purely with just the coating on top.
though i would actually pick out the 'irritating' balls before i savour my cupcakes (you will find it irritating when you bite onto some hard small stuffs when munching onto the soft cake).
really for 'bai sui' only. hahaha.



#2 m&m brownie.

the brownie that is hot from the oven!

i was so excited to try out this brownie recipe after buying the mini m&m baking chocolate chips!
eh, but apparently, my brownie doesnt look much like a brownie.
they are as hard as cookies!
errr, well i baked it for an hr, instead of the instructed 30mins. lol. but thats not because i forgot about the timing, but...
saw the 5 holes at the foreground of the brownie? evidence of the pokes made by my satay sticks. looks unpleasant though, haha. cause by right, we always have to bake till a teaster inserted comes out clean. thats why i baked for an hr, cause the stick doesnt come out clean everytime i poke in!

but now then i realised, BROWNIE IS MOIST BY THE INSIDE. -.-

and thanks to wl zoe and es for giving me that 'eeew' face before and after trying my brownie. so encouraging.... really taste that bad meh!? hahaha. i still think it tastes pretty fine =D wah, and my student was even better. she only picked out the m&m choc chips to eat!

whatever it is,
*baking made my day brightened* :)

the story about little charmaine.

she is only 3 years 7 month old.
and has been diagnosed with neuroblastoma (cancer).

her story touches me and a lot others, i believe.
feel empathy for charmaine's mom, cynthia, for all the things that happened to her, that she has to face with, that she has to go through.

her husband chose to divorce with her, in her 7month of pregrancy, through a text message. and the hurtful part was, he left with her good friend. what a total jerk. while her little daughter, charmaine, an active cheerful little girl, has been diagnosed with cancer, at such a young age.

a breakup to many could be so painful, moreover a divorce.
the pain of losing your closed ones, your grandparents your relatives or even your friends, hurts so much, moreover to cynthia, her daughter, who has been brought to this world by her, who means everything to her, who is the reason for all the smiles on her.

really hope to raise as much funds for little charmaine's NY treatment, through our small little efforts :)

every little help from everyone, makes a difference!



[updates]

through the yec platform, a total of $950 was raised from our side!! haha $500 was from boon's mom actually. :))
and and and, cynthia managed to raise half a million USD for charmaine's NY treatment! hurray! :D
