Yuki Yaki + Derek's Bday Celebration

Had dinner at Yuki Yaki with lin min, hweesheng, wan hao and NCG.

We started off with our normal procedure:

This time round, we had fried noodle instead of mushroom. While we were frying the noodle an auntie who was sitted at the next table was looking at us. She said that we are so good at frying the noodle here. She even approached us to try our fried noodle.

Actually we tried frying the noodle 3 times.
The 1st time, Hwee sheng said that the noodle was too plain.
The 2nd time, Wan hao said that it taste like carrot cake. (too many eggs added)
The 3rd time, Wan hao said that it taste like chicken rice. (chicken fried with chicken rice's chilly)

The 3rd time was the BEST taste. Hwee sheng LOVE my noodle so much that he had 2 1/2 bowl of it.

We started to play with the leftover food:

He was the one behind all these...

Towards the end, I had pudding as dessert. I don't know why that i have the sudden thought to tabao some pudding so that we can have pudding while we were chatting at esplanade.
I asked the rest:

" eh, want tabao some to esplanade a not?"
" want take how many huh?"
"enough meh...? still have yee cheng, xuan zhi and derek leh"
" aiya... take more la... can keep in bag then bring out one la..."

NCG and Hwee sheng take turns to take the pudding.

In the end, 6 in my bag and 7 in lin min's bag.
(Im looking into Lin Min's bag)

After that,

"I'm thinking how are we going to eat derek bday cake huh?"
"Aiya, later can go Mac take their tissue use la...."

We took some photo before leaving the place.

Once the bill was settled, we moved on to breadtalk to get Derek's cake. But all the cakes was SOLD OUT only those small ones left. We hesitate a while and decided to try our luck at Raffle City.

On the way, we went in Mac for their tissues. I went in first and I came out with a handful of it and I told lin min to go in take, not enough. She went in together with Hwee sheng. They came out with many of them. Hwee sheng had the idea of making roses with the tissue that we took as Derek's present.

Finally, we brought a cake in Market Place and make our way to Esplanade.

While waiting for Derek, Xuan Zhi and Yee Cheng, we started playing poker for a while.

Then Hwee Sheng start making tissue rose. At the same time he also taught Wan Hao.

NCG was trying to make something out of his poker card.

He showed us this....

and asked us what can we see from this cards...

Mac was missing, which make it more difficult to take photos. But we still tried to take some photos.

Lin min and I had flowers on our hair and asked NCG to be our cameraman.

While he was taking, he made lots of negative comment which made us busted out of laughter.

jelly that we stole!!!

In the end, no proper photos was taken. LOUSY cameraman!!! So I take over the camera and snap a picture of them.

Preparation of Derek cake:

Take more photo with Derek's flower

Wan hao was rushing the 19th rose.

And put this aside.

Yee Cheng reached, he was feeling damn HIGH. He start posting lots of pattern which made us laughed!

The last photo before derek reached.

Derek Bday Celebration

We planned to tell him that all of us on budget now and have no birthday cake for him but only pudding that we tabao from yuki yaki. We will show him tha cake after he had blow the candle on those pudding. Yee Cheng was asked to present those 19 tissue roses to him upon his arrival.

These were the photos....

He was posing all the while until Derek have collected the flowers.

He dropped the cake...

He wants to show us magic..

He left shortly.

We also change a location to chit-chat. Yee cheng was the one doing most of the talking. Half of the time, he was complaining to the rest how irritating am I asking for the NDP preview tickets plus many more. He also shared with us his experience he had working in the hospital. He concluded that hospital is a dirty place.

Well, I hope that we still can have more time for each other in future and a successful genting trip in Sept.

I won't be blogging until all my exams are over. I need to study hard for the coming exam.

first few weeks of school.

NDP- Preview
Yee cheng gave me 2 tickets which i begged very hard for it.

Before Year 2 start, we had a gathering at Marina Barrage for flying kite and dinner at Ichiban. It was a wrong day for flying kite. Freaking hot. We cant even keep ourselves at outdoor.

Super late dinner at Ichiban, 9pm.

I cant remember much what happened that day, so nothing much to blog about.

PICTURES

.....................................................................................

The day don't end at Ubin but OCH.

We find it too early to go home. Clarence mentioned OCH, he told us he went there with ivan and qingwen. They encountered something.

It was 6pm, we thought that we were able to make it there to have the external look. But, we can't. By the time we reached there, not even near to OCH, it totally pitch dark.

We were standing somewhere that will lead us to OCH, thinking thinking and thinking, should we just walk up just to gate and just have a picture of it. But, it was so dark that we din even make it up to the slope. Ncg insisted. We told him that we don't even have touchlight, there is no way to make it up there.

Well, we will go there some other day.

I'm still painting, even NOW!!!
my sunflower.

I had a 5 days of OFF straight, that makes me feels like painting even more.

At the same time, painting will help me kill time.
So, I brought a total of 13 bottles of acrylic and a box of brushes.
Very reluctant to buy. I no longer a art student and yet I'm still spending money on these art materials.

I hope that my passion will still continue, I don't want to waste this type of money.

Buy for the sake of buying and used it for a short period of time.

Then again, whenever there is art, there will be MASS.

This is my 80% complete work:

-Hardwork
-Money
-Time consuming

Investment

You can see there are so many neon treta now.

The fact is: I have only 5 remaining.

That how disheartening.

Why can't they just swim happily in my tank rather then I have to check on them whenever I wake up or I have just reached home.

I hate removing them away to the rubbish bin.

Back from work.

Everytime when I'm working, my eyes are just so heavy that I can't keep awake.

But when I'm home, I'm just so awake.

And this was what I have done:

Friendship Built Up with NCG

My deepest impression that he gave me was:

1. Combo 1 avaliable in 7 Eleven ????
where all of us were asking: " huh, 7 eleven have combo 1 meh?"

2. Wipe out the food that my mother cooked!

3. Always disagree with what miss hoe said.

4. Strange guy
-Skip school just because he wants to keep that long hair.

And now, you can't believe how close we are...

- Running with him for the past few days and in future.

- Have breakfast in MAC

- Came my house to see my fish

- Out to CCK for FISH SPA.

Mine..

His...

random

I want to have a nice hand writting but not this.
I want to change it!!!

My Birthday 5th Feb
and I'm 19 now, in no time I'm going to hit 20. My big TWO.
Time is really flies.

Alright,
people who spent that day together with me were:

-Eugene
-Lin Min
-Hup Lian
-Hwee Sheng
-Yee Cheng
-LEE LI XUAN
-Wan Hao
-Zhen Fu
-Clarence
-Qing Wen
-Xuan Zhi
-Xiao Qing
-Emily
-Chien Juan
-Theck Sheng

A total of 16 people including me having dinner together at YUKI YAKI.

I was SO SO happy and exicted to look forward that day!
What a BIG gathering!

This balloon was still floating in my room, which always remind me of how happy am I on that day. (so sort of escape from poly)

Let talk about how that day come about.

In the morning, lesson as usual.
I even had a presentation which I have to bring extract clothes to change later.

By right, Eugene will be dismissed earliest among lin min and I.
In the end, we girls have to wait for him and even asked us to buy drinks for him.

We leave at 4.30pm.

Taking photo with him because we never see him wear till like this before.

Pass my camera to him and that us:

Upon reaching Marina SQ, Hup Lian called. Meet up with her, make a reservation at Yuki Yaki and we move on to this place for more photo taking.

Eugene will be holding the camera. The way he takes picture was "without proper 1 2 3".

He always have secret phone coming in....

The "GIRLS"

Once it 6pm, we walked in and chiong for our dinner. That was my first meal.

While eating, we take pictures also. All these were for memories...

I get very irritated once Yee Cheng came. He keep talking rubbish to me and sang birthday song which Hwee sheng commented :
" Yee cheng, you sing till like no one is celebrating birthday here leh"

Since he was sitted near the outside which was easier for him to go in and out, I kept asking him to take this and that for me.

Then after li xuan came, I asked him to take 1 set of utensil for her. He got pissed off.
"wah lao, i waiter ar?"

Then a photo of him getting the utensil.

Then Emily and Xiao Qing arrival.

Li xuan can't cook. She was screaming all the way.

Her rescue came from Hup Lian.

When most of them had reached, I think it time for me to cook something for them. And I cooked my fav. mushrooms.

Of course not just boil them and serve them with this. I have cooked them with over the pan.

That's my final outcome. When I first cook, Hwee sheng said it NICE.
yeah-.

Like what I have mentioned, he was very irritating that I ignored him most of the time.
That why, he take picture with this face. hahaha..

Theck Sheng called and asked me where is the place. I was busy cooking and passed the phone to Yee cheng.

What he have done was:
"Hellooooo, weee areee att Yukiii YAKIIII"
He drag his voice all the way and act like a girl.

Theck Sheng, hang up the phone without specking any single word.

This make Yee cheng so happy and keep laughing over it.

When Chien Juan and Qing Wen reached, they passed me this balloon.
I was like:
"Huh, how am I suppose to go home with this? Everyone will be like looking at me...."

Clarence, the joker. Like what Lin Min said, we can dont need to know what he is talking about, base on his voice, we will know that it going to be funny.

The last person to reach was him.

See them take photo, I also want to take.

So I ask yee cheng to take for us.

Then, we moved on to the Girl's Table for more photo taking.

Back to my table.

When I see this photo, 1 question came to my mind.
And that question was:

4 years back, they were couple and now HOW COME they still SO CLOSE. Somemore still can be GOOD FRIEND leh? I'm wondering WHY and HOW they manage to do it...
They won't have any weird weird feeling meh?

I always want to ask them but always forget.

Actually I crop this picture left only them.

>The actual grp photo was like this:

Move on the PART II of our dinner
what we did was:

WE COOK,

WE CHAT,

That the end of my dinner at yuki yaki. Head home together.

I can't sit still reading my notes. I just can't.

What I have in mind was how am I going spent my 2 mths holidays with start on the 17 Feb.

I want to carefree now.

Alright people, please ignored this, I'm just typing what I could remember for LAW.

_____________________________________________________________________
Economic Loss

- court held no duty owned to plaintiff who suffered loss due to the defects in economic loss. Economic loss is define as loss suffered from plaintiff due to the damage in to building without suffering injury to himself or damage to his property.

-this can be proved by Weller v Foot and Mouth Disease Research in Inst.

Where court is reluctant to award compensation for economic loss because of been afraid of excessive liability.

-Economic Loss in building means that the defects occur from the very beginning of construction and plaintiff did not suffered injury or damage to his property. Plaintiff only suffered an reduction on the value of his building due to the defect.

-upon who can the plaintiff sue, it all depend on the contractual relationship. the plaintiff may sue the developer, developer can sure the architect/builders/consultant. The plaintiff will only success if he suffered injury or damage in his property, otherwise the plaintiff will not be entitled to any compensation. So long it pure economic loss, no compensation will be awarded.

However, if there no contractual relationship exit, then the plaintiff may sue under tort. When the plaintiff sue under tort, developer will never get involved. Then again, plaintiff will not be compensated if he only suffered pure economic loss.

-For English Law, the court will not award compensation damages to subsequent owner for building defects caused by negligent construction/design. This can be proved with

D&F Estate v Church Commissioners for England. House of Lord held that, builders' liability is limited to :

-Injury suffered by plaintiff

-damage to plaintiff's property

Damage to property itself = pure economic loss, hence no compensation.

-For Singapore law, is different. It difference in, plaintiff can sue for compensation due to defect at common area under economic loss. The court will consider 2 factors before awarding compensation.

First the sufficient proximity between the plaintiff and defendant on is it foreseeable that the defendant's negligent will lead to damaged to plaintiff.

Second, the public consideration where how much the plaintiff have to depend on the defendant to take reasonable care in exercising his duty.

-"Ocean Front" Case

Managing Corporation sue the developer for economic loss due to defect in common area. Those defects are:

Faulty construction in concrete carpark celling which led to spalling.

Faulty construction in corridor which led to water pounding in lift lobbies.

The court held that MC can claim compensation from the developer due economic loss in common area.

The reason for this judgment are, the proximity relation between the MC and developer, it foreseeable that developers' negligent in constructing common area will result in repair work to be done by MC. In order for MC to carry out their obligations in maintaining the common area, the MC will have to relay on the developer to take reasonable care in building the condo.

- "Eastern Lagoon" case

Mc sue design consultant for economic loss instead of developer who has gone out of business for pure economic loss due to:

Bricks and tiles are falling apart from wall of a tower block because of faulty design.

The court held that MC was able to claim compensation from the design consultant due to economic loss.

The reason for this judgement was because, there is sufficient proximity relationship between the MC and design consultant that it is foreseeable for the design consultant to realise that the building will be taken over by the MC in maintaining the common area. Therefore, the MC have to relay on the design consultant to take reasonable care in designing the building.

- Implication of these 2 case were similar and to determine how far-reaching can the duty and responsibilities owned by parties within construction industry to their clients.

The court have decided that, anyone in construction industry have owned a duty of care to MC.

(dinner with miss hoe, carol departure, bday-hopefully with lots of photos.)

2009-01-08T23:18:00.000-08:00

Browsing Through .........

My past archives, eyes were filled with tears.

this makes me feel bad....
Graduation Day (5th Oct 07)

To me, Graduation Day was to declare that :
I don't need to report school at 7.20 am.
I don't need to wake up at 5.50 am.
I have no more chances to fall asleep in class.
I don't need to endure whatever I have to endure.
I don't need to attend any lessons that was conducted by the teacher whom I HATE! ( Zhang lao shi)
I don't need to wear that uniform that makes me feel warm!
I no longer needs to worry that Miss wong is going to call my name.
I no longer needs to attent Miss Wong lessons ( sleepy)Bla Bla Bla Bla Bla Bla........
(alot more but i can't recall)......................................................................

What I miss was the times that:

Table Tennis Training at lower sec. Mr Lee will always treat Pei En, Melissa and me ice cream. Soon I began skipping training or I will only stayed in the hall for 1 hr then GO HOME. I was the "eat snake" type when I was in upper sec!

Eating SNOW ICE with friends straight after school! I won't forget the incident that happened between Amy and Li Xuan! haha

Doing art project with Jean,Lin Min and Li Xuan.(zebra & giraffe) Li Xuan was a joker at that time! As she insisted on painting the strips for the zebra and end up looking like the zebra crossing!

Chased out by Mrs bala for laughing too loud! "the four girls, get out of the class"laughing over all small things. To others we are the siao cha bo.

Mrs lau's music lessons. ( rubber band)writting letters to jean lin min and theck sheng.

Thinking back, I find it silly. I feel worst when I go back and read those letters.. haha

enjoys D&T lessons.

likes cooking session but I don't like Mrs Toe

love art lesson.bringing eggs,apples ect for drawing. I will never forgets that I started drawing birds since sec 1 until now!

sec 1 camp. sleeping with li xuan who only bring 1 towel to slp while I bring sleeping bag and even my small pillow!

the pole dancing by NCG!

those trips to ESCAPE.those fund raising programs in school.

selling almond longan together with li xuan.

staying over night at lin min house!

Ubin trip with zhi ti and yee cheng!

cycling under the rain!BBQ organize by Ellin. have a great time BBQ my new creation of food...

more to be listed out!

I hate the present life that I'm having.

Why can't i enjoy as much as the past?

2009-01-03T22:58:00.000-08:00

My thought.

Though it 2009, I don't really have much aims.
What I have in mind now was:

the days i had in fuhua.
im repeating this again

the days i had with them.
i can laugh all i want.
i can talk without thinking.

the day i had with Miss Hoe.
I like to take her ride back home.
I like her to reason things out for me to understand.
I would like to thank her for all the things she has done.

The reason for not having much aims for 2009 is due to the fact that I still can't leave behind those memorable days.

As for 2009:

I only wish that I can excel in my studies.

No troubles.

$$$ keep flowing in.

Accept the life in poly.

Stop all the sinful meet up.

2009-01-01T03:29:00.000-08:00

goodbye 2008

random 2008 facts:

-schooling in poly which make me hate it so much.

-I realised that it so much better off in secondary school.

-I feel insecure.

-Friends in poly are so called ' surface friends '

- True friends are still secondary school friends. (just like what miss hoe said)

-I study real hard and also play hard in the holidays.

-I have weird sleeping hour.

-I start to keep fish and I killed many of them.

2008-12-21T09:48:00.000-08:00

Purpose of this trip was to play DS with my cousins.
That why, on the 13th I'm back in SG and on the 16th I'm going to Malaysia again.
Back in SG for 2 days only and I'm heading to Malaysia.

The 5 days was too short for me. I would like to stay there longer but I can't.
On the 20th, carol will be back in Sg. That where all the FUN comes to.... that all of us have waiting for that day to arrive.

So, the 5 days was mainly enjoying myself with them and to have great food there...
At the same time, I was crazy hunting kites there. It so difficult to find them in SG. I bought 2 back.

1 round of flying kite here.
That was the last day I'm staying over.

The youngest one was also playing.

he likes to take pictures as well...

the end-

KL Trip 11-13

2008-12-14T09:47:00.000-08:00

day 1.

I din manage to catch a wink and I have to report at 6.30am in school.

Initially, I was planning to bring 6-7 sets of clothes for the 3 days 2 nights trip to KL. Unfortunately, I din manage to squeeze into my bag. I end up bringing 4 sets of clothes.

Many others things that I planned to bring along which ended up no space.

Once I meet the rest, they asked me why are my bag so small and they showed me that they brought 2 bags. To unload the weight of my bag, I pass my shoe to Daryl and another stuff to Yu Huan.

After we get our passport stamped, the guys were playing card game at the back.
Stay in the bus for a long travelling....

This was what they played.

Breakfast Break.
Most of the guys were hungry.

When we reached JB, we were brought to visit a factory.

All of us were waiting for someone in charge to bring us in.

This was what we do while waiting.

First the guys took a group photo and they started calling us to join in.

After the group photo, I have a photo taken with Danial and Yi Ting.

and Finally we are IN!

We have to put on a mask as it was very dusty and smelly.

After the factory visit, I witness how the tiles are made and had our lunch there.

Next was still the long bus ride to KL.

Taken when the bus was already approaching our hotel and yet, due to the traffic jam we were struck in the bus. All of us were complaining that why is it takes so long. The most irritating part was the bus moved a while and stopped a while.

We reached the hotel at 9pm and yet we have to wait before we can check into our rooms.

Chris make good friend with yu huan after this trip.

All of us looked like we were queueing up to get our keys to the room.

This was how the room looked like.

The view from my room.

After unloading our stuff in the hotel, we rushed out and have some quick shopping and dinner.

Din really buy much things as the shopping mall was closing at that time.
We have spilt in small groups for dinner.

The guys went for KFC.

I think is stupid eating KFC there, where KFC can be easily found anywhere in SG.
And I head for this....
Dinner with Yiting, Yon, Hui Ming and Jia Yu and the food is NICE.

We were told that there was a curfew, 11pm. We din really bother much, just enjoy our food and walk back slowly.

Reached,bath, joined the guys for poker.

The reason why I said that chris make good friend with yu huan was because chris find it very funny whenever yu huan start scolding chee bye once he lost $$$. The word chee bye from his mouth was suppose to sound angry but it ended up to be a joke all of us, because he don't sound angry at all. It sound strange. Everytime yu huan scold, chris will start laughing.

That was the first time I hear him scolding it. Shocked.

Well, everything ended at 4am and report at 8am the next day.

day 2.

Have a quick breakfast in the hotel.
Day2 was a long day.

First to the twin towers.

Before we stepped onto the sky bridge, we have to wait at this place where they showed the history of the twin towers. We had some fun there exploring those items.

photo taking time.

In the lift. It really amazing because it only takes 30s or so to reach 42 lvl.

When we were on the sky bridge. We only had like 15-20 minutes there.

view down.
I din really spent time appreciated the scenery as I was taking group photos.

Upon leaving.

internal and external .

We moved on to visit some places in KL which I cant remember what it was called.

Prison, which is no longer a prison anymore. The painting on the walls were painted by some prisoners.

this building catches my attention.

A place where someone govt. staff stay.
I don't understand why it part of a tourist attraction. Many were taking photo with the guard which does not make any sense. The Guard should ensure the security is safe but they were posting and taking photo with the tourist.

Look at the crowd of people.

We see many of them taking photo with the guard, so we joined in too.

We move on this this place.
Without Yon, I guess I wont be taking so much photos.

This few photos was taken by Chris. rushed.

This was how he take the photo of us.

The garden when we were walking back.

yu huan.

This was the last place before we moved on to the twin towers again.
I like this building. It so British....

KLCC for a short lunch then we moved on to meet the management of twin towers.
By then I was very sleepy, din really pay attention to their presentation. But it ended it in a way that both parties were happy.

We will moved on to somewhere for seafood dinner but we heard that there was a toilet that we have to pay RM2 to get in and the guys decided to try that.
We were told that RM 2 toilet exist was because that level of the shopping mall were shops of LV, COACH etc.
branded shops has to come with high class toilet.

This how the toilet looked like.

Chocolate Shop.
Bought coffee chocolate.

First time I see how pinapple are planted.

Super long jouney to have seafood dinner and visit of fireflies.

I was sleeping and the boys were at the back playing loudly.

dinner.

My table was full of guys and food was not enough for them, they ended up taking other tables' dish to eat.

They enjoyed the food a lot.

fireflies time.
Din manage to take any picture of them. They were nice!

Long way back to Hotel again. On the way back, we discussed on where we are heading for supper. I miss their lala. Then again, we head for supper.

Back to our room and I called Chris to my room to try this...
They were kind of scared when then heard the sound. Afterall, they were damn funny when they tried on this.

I bath at 4am. That was very late, too busy for fun.
Chris joined in our room for some card games which does not need $. He don't dare to join in the other room where most of them were gambling because he had just lost RM20 during the bus jouney.

He stayed in our room the whole night playing and he always want to win me. In the end, I have no idea who is the winner. We were equally lousy. haha.

Chat till the morning and realised that he has not pack his bag, ended up with no breakfast for most of them.
He is a funny BOY.

day 3.

Jungle Walk.

Nothing much. I just take it as a morning walk.

Light & Shadow.

Found anywhere.

The shortcut that we walked back.fun.

Group Photo.

Found in Danial's Camera. No idea of how this photo was taken. I guess it was when I pass him his camera back.

No idea where was this place.

I was sleeping most of the time.

That was what he did during the long and boring ride back to SG.

That was the end of the trip. When I was back home, I lay flat on the bed.

Hopefully they are staying happily with me.

My fishes.
what you get to see here, they are no longer there anymore.

I have a sad story to share with all of you.

on 3rd dec, theck sheng and i went to the fish shop in clementi. bought fishes and water plant to give my tank a new look.

after everything was carried out, we stood in front of the tank, watching how all my shrimps die.

from jumping & swimming around to fainting and finally turn over!

he never have the chance to witness how other fish eat them. but i did.

I witness the whole process, which makes me depressed.

a total of 15 shrimps died on the same day.

a total of 25 shrimps that i have bought, is no longer visible in my tank.

SHRIMPS GONE = MONEY GONE

Common scene:

this Locha is my love-hate fish.

i use to hate him for chasing all the new fish that i bought and biting their beautiful tail.
so i decided to throw him into my father's tank and never take him back.

but in the end, i scoped him back.
he was behaving weird. always pretend that he was dead. that makes me love him more.
cause his behaviour is CUTE.

HOWEVER HE DEAD FEW DAYS AGO.

evidence that he is pretending dead.

myself.

during the 8 weeks of school.

2008-12-06T09:39:00.000-08:00

*8 weeks of school have end

The 1st week was the worst, dragging myself to school and a blank mind.
All the thoughts that I have in mind was:

how am i going to fight through the 8 weeks?
i hate the environment
i want to be with my sec sch friend enjoying all the outing that we had
i don't like the people around me, i felt so strange.
what am i suppose to do?

This was all I had in mind.
everynight, all i can do was just grumble and grumble and grumble to theck sheng

It continues till the 2nd or the 3rd week, where I switched over to the other group which I felt a lot more comfortable with... I feel like I'm together with li xuan and seriously that was much better then before.

That switch was a right choice for me.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Chalet on the 1/11/08
2 day 1 night chalet

I will call it a "chicken wing" chalet. We have lots of chicken wings that we cant finish at all.
During the BBQ, I tried the BBQ potato with bacon bits. I like that the best. I was hook onto that and I have been eating a potato everyday.

During the chalet, we did nothing much. I was sleeping and the rest was playing card games.
Toward the end of the chalet was the best part. All of us was watching theck sheng,hwee sheng,zhen fu and wanhao as they played the card game. Interesting in a way they brought out feeling and the mood of chalet. We were like laughing at one another.

2008-10-06T23:59:00.000-07:00

After my 6 GREAT weeks, it time for me to face my surface friends for another 8 weeks and I'm free from them.

I'm back to blog my happy time before my nightmares come.

It seems like I have disappear after the zoo trip.
Well, I guess I was too tired by all the outings, gatherings and meet up at one go. The rest of my time, I was re-charging myself at home.

After the ZOO TRIP, I spent 3-4 days with Miss hoe helping her students in O Level coursework. I was kind of surprised by their attitude toward their coursework.

Their deadline was like in 2-3 days time and their work was only 60-70 % done!
They can still sit in a group and chatting happily.
What I can say is SLOW & STEADY but will not win the race!

As for Miss Hoe, under a new environment, she changed into a mother-ly teacher.

For the remaining weeks of my holidays, I spent about 1 -2 weeks hunting items to set up my fish tank in my room.
I will let this be a solo entry together with all my complain and explain where my hard earned money goes to!

Have a couple of meet up with Xiao Qing and Wan Hao. Both of them are VERY ON in going anywhere. GO WHERE ALSO CAN!

With them, we went to FARMS.
That trip, we had a LONG walk under the HOT SUN!
I end up with 3 guppies and Xiao Qing end up with a dream to have a dog in her new house.

I can't remember where are the other place we have been to.

The last meeting was at WEST COAST
After so many weeks have past. The last week of Holiday, finally gathered more people.
Poor lin min, who got bully by her brother who was seriously SICK that cause lin min cannot join us!

Initially Plan was to go Esplanade. We ended up in WEST COAST.
The change of plan was due to Xiao Qing as she was late for like 1 HR.

In train, she was the one who suggest to go west coast instead to save the travel time to esplanade so that we will have a longer time to play. She called Yee Cheng and inform him that we are going west coast instead! Yee cheng YELLED at her! He want to go esplanade and used Hwee Sheng's dressing as an excuse for not going west coast!

Still we end up in west coast. Had lunch at Pizza Hut.

The first step on west coast was a disappointment because the spider web was under renovation!

We moved on to the flying fox. Have fun there especially yee cheng!

We have grow up! There was nothing much for us to play. We moved on to jetty and enjoy the breeze there!
Photo taking as well!

I was on phone with yee cheng's mother.

Play till my face RED RED!

Move on to play kids stuff. To have the feel of childhood again.

It always fun to be a child and stayed in childhood life!

It has been a long long time since I sit on this...

MAC's doing the JOB now!

My style is to take pictures in any outings or gatherings.

Photo will turn into memories and they will be brought home for me to look at the past and the happy moments!

Whenever Yee cheng is in front of the camera, there will be show time for us to laugh at!
Please pay attention to yee cheng for the following photos. He do all sort of funny post!

Yee Cheng doing the show!

Yee cheng AGAIN...

climax now.

doing their individual jump!

Bowling alley.

ALL DOWN! He was happy about it!

All of us were looking at a small boy who might spoil theck sheng's MAC.

We end the photo taking session with this 2 photos as most of them were rushing to somewhere else.

Because of this meet up here, we went up with an agreement that we will be sleeping there on thursday.
SAME OLD PEOPLE GOING but - off hup lian hwee sheng and + donald!

The things that I enjoyed MOST was sleeping under the sky, the cloud and the stars!

watching the changed of cloud. Night to Day!
