Ice Edge Cafe / Frankenstein

Another trip to a cafe again, which is the Ice Edge Cafe located near Kovan mrt station, with wenyi today! :-) it was supposed to be a threesome date (me, wy and jess) but this jess last minute told us she had an appt last night - for her eyebrows this vain girl - whereby the person could only make it today so she had to go and miss the trip with us there haiyooo. 

Sooo, it was just wy and I /smirk/ HAHAHAHA. Trained to Kovan where in btwn we switched from green line to orange line then to purple line again, so troublesome. Made our way there shortly with the help of google map again hehe. Probably b'cos the cafe just opened (12pm to 12am daily), there wasn't much people there yayyy. Got a seat at a corner with comfy sofa for the both of us hoho and then we placed our orders!! I was so famished then (only ate yogurt before leaving da house) o goshhhh.

Ordered the 1-for-1 lunch promotion which is available on weekdays, 12pm-3pm!!! This is partly why we travelled so far for hehehehe. There's also set dinner promo which comes with a drink (I think) as well! 

Salmon steak - saw a few people recommending it while reading the reviews online so I gave it a try!! It comes with the salad (as seen) and a chunk of mashed potato (covered by the salad), I forgot what it's called. Thought the portion was quite small and won't be filing for me but I was wrong! Felt kinda full after like that one piece? I also don't know why too hahahahaha. Anyways, I feel that the salmon isn't VERY nice but still nice - lol does it make sense - cos it is like a bit overcooked? The meat's quite hard and not those smooth kind. Ahh, sorry I suck at describing good oh well. But anws, I will prefer it to be smoother or smth heh. Besides that, the buttery sauce is good!! :D 

(Wenyi ordered a dish called chicken pesto... Something... It has creamy sauce over the chicken chop and the portion's quite big!! It comes with the (same) salad and potato wedges as well! If you will not get sick of creamy stuff after eating it for long, there you go, chicken pesto smth smth... Hahaha)

Waffle with 2 scoops of gelato - sooo, many have recommended this dessert which is kind of common in cafés ah hehe. But what's 'uncommon' I will say is that their gelato is homemade! That explains the variety of unique flavours they have! :-) but it depends on your luck whether which flavour is available when you're there heh. For us, we chose Choco Brownie & Lychee Martini to go with the waffle!! Honestly, I will prefer strangers reunion's buttermilk waffle than this one! This waffle is indeed crispy at the outside while soft in the inside but it is not flavourful, like it does not have that blast of flavour when you take one bite of it. In another words, it's kinda bland. Luckily, there was ice cream to eat with the waffle! I loveee the lychee martini :p It doesn't taste like gelato tho HAHA. It just tastes like some frozen ice? Ohhh lychee snow ice. Something like that! Icy and sweet with that aftertaste of martini which isn't very strong to me. Yummyyyyy. The Choc Brownie's good as well!! There's mini brownie bites in it ooooo /drools/

Oh and we saw this device, really cool.

And look at this retard HAHAHAHA.

And then here's me, the more decent one unlike someone hmmmm HAHA kiddingggg la kidding :p

Left the place around 2+ and bused all the way to tamp inter to meet jess at century square for movieeee!! Caught 'I, Frankenstein' which is really action-pack all the wayyy man. Didn't really get the ending tho hehe but it's okkkk. I really love how there was always fighting here and there even tho most (?) are by animations b'cos it involved ugly demons and protectors or wtv u called it, idk. Find Frankenstein very cool hoho, like how the way he fights against all those demons, how he saves the humankind from danger wooo. Def an interesting movie! :D

Shopped around a little bit and parted with 'em!! 

Found if at Kissjane but didn't buy it in the end o welllll. Idk man, I may not wear it more than once but... I like it sighs :-( it's ok zhiyu, u have enuf clothes. 

Yea. 

Enuf... 

Since when girls have enuf clothes to begin with HAHA.

Ootd! :-)

(there's a reason of why I used this 'clovers' marker okayyyy HAHA)

Another well-spent day just eating, chatting and watching movie heh. School's reopening soon and hopefully, we'll still have chance to meet up like that again! x

Shopping 2 / Tim Ho Wan

Yes, went for another shopping trip with my mum - as mentioned in the previous post and the title - today at orcharrrd!! :D so I literally bought half of my buys from cotton on, which was the first shop I stopped by when I reached there aha. Bought 1 pair of mulberry shorts, 1 (comfortable) romper and lastly, 1 denim Shortall which costs $39.95 - that 5cents away from $40 can perhaps make me feel better... Lol kidding - so idk if I should buy T-T Ended up buying cos I really love it plus it can be adjusted to fit my height nicely unlike those blogshop ones which are fixed and hence, too short for me :((( sucks to be tall this time.

^^^ seems like excuses to comfort myself, yea I know.

Oh well, alr bought it so shall wear it more often ba hehehe. Continued to walk around after that! Bought another sleeveless top which is on sale hoho /inserts smirk face emoji/ then bought a simple maroon dress from topshop!! Window shopped after that cos I know I can't buy anything else alr and I really resisted the temptation to buy very hard when I entered Factorie :'( Now, all of the pay I earned cfm plus chop is gone alr sighhh :-(

Headed to bedok mall after that for dinner! Wanted to try Tim Ho Wan, esp. the char siew buns ever since I read lynn's post on it xD There was a long queue when we reached there but it wasn't so long of a wait before it was our turn!

Ordered all these - chicken feet, pork ribs, prawn dumplings, char siew buns and siew Mai - missing the porridge and 2 char siew buns which were alr in our stomachs :p

The porridge :-)

Chicken feet. Kind of disappointed when this dish was served b'cos I was expecting those usual spicy chicken feet that can be found in dim sum restaurants :-(

The char siew bun!!! DAMN GOOD HOLY PIG COW DUNG *-* The best ones I've ever eaten in my life - outside is crispy yet soft while the inside is filled with tender and juicy char siew in which the sauce will slowly ooze out - one bite and I'm flying HAHAHA. Still missing that heavenly bite *-* Definitely will go back for more when I have the chance to!!! :p

Overall, what I enjoyed at Tim Ho Wan was their porridge and char siew bun! The rest like the prawn dumplings or siew mai are just meh, nothing much special, just like the normal ones I've eaten before haha. If I go back, I'll just buy and take away the char *-* siew *-* buns *-* HAHAHAHA. Had gela!to or isit ge!lato idk, wtv it's called for dessert! Bought the hazelnut one and since there's this 1-for-1 promotion, my mum bought the durian one! Ooooo, the hazelnut one is yummy!! Hehehe such a guilty night :x bused home after that! 

Sooo today's basically shopping and eating?? Hehe, can't wait for CNY where I can wear my new clothes! :p alright goodbye :-)

Movies

Watched like 4 movies so far, in like 2 days hahahaha xD Basically, these 2 days were sort of just my 'movie days'! 

I watched 'The Ring' and 'We are the Millers' at Cheryl's place yesterday, 'The Legend of Hercules' ytd at dte's cinema - it was a very impromptu one HAHA - and 'Devil's Due' tonight at century sq!! 

Hehe, that pretty sums up what I'd been doing yesterday and today! 

And oh,

Trying to read finish this 3rd book in the vampire academy series - in fact the 4th (last) book as well - before its movie comes out in the cinema!! Hehehehe. 

First time mixing the plain yogurt with some frozen berries (blue, black, strawberries) !!! Not used to the taste but oh well, that shall be one of my pre-workout snacks from now onwards!! :p

Going for another shopping trip to town with my mum again tmr!! Hoho bye bye :-)

Shopping

Went to bugis for shopping with my mum today!! :D Before that, I visited the clinic for my face again ahahaha, luckily the doc said my face condition's better hehehe.

Okk, back to my shopping :p

So we just shopped around @ bugis plus and street! Bought like 2 sleeveless tops (lixie) , one pair of white denim shorts (lowry's farm - offer!!!) and one sort-of denim outerwear (uniqlo) ! :-) happy with my buys woooo. Will be shopping again on thurs with my mum hoho. Look like half of my pay - or isit everything - is gone already :-(

Had our dinner at bugis +'s Kungfu Paradise !

Some creamy pasta with mushrooms and ham! It doesn't look tasty hor? HAHAHA, but don't judge a pasta by its outlook :p it is yummy!

Oreooo cheesecake!!! DAMN NICE - as what its appearance suggests xD

Ohh and here's my ohohteedee :-)

Spent my day with my mum today and will be spending with my favourite group of peepo again tomorrow!!! Gonna make use of my time wisely now with my family and friends heh. Till then x

Another day :-)

Just another day bballing with the usual bball gang ; just another night chilling with the loveliest group of people :-)

Throwback: My Birthday ♡

Before going for my bday celebration, we went to mj's open house! This was before I made my choice for JAE so I was quite serious about going for its open house ahahaha. I mean like, I would take notice of more things there uh! Watched their performances and then walked around the school. Badluckzhiyu fell down while going down the slippery staircase lol. I was even thinking was that a bad omen of coming to this school??? Cos I hadn't decide on which jc yet ma! So I got kinda a little crazy? Hahahaha shit, that's dumb. Ok whateverrr. Headed to the library afterwards where all the demo lectures were located! Asked about subjs like the sciences and GP! Sigh, decisions after decisions, gonna fret about the subj combi real soon :-( Explored some of their CCAs as well! :D Interested to join their volleyball but - sorry to say that... - it's quite cui haha. I know I have no rights to say that since I have quitted vb since p5, but then again, the way I see them play and the way I see dmn vbllers play, cannot la. :/ Considering floorball, bowling and maybe shooting? HAHAHA. OHH, and maybe dance????? HAHAHAHAHA. Nah, may be not dance. I can't dance even though I like it. Sad girl is zhiyu aha. :-(

Left the school at around 2+?? We had yet decide where to eat our sakae sushi so we stayed at pasir ris mrt station awhile, deciding where to eat when I was totally famished :-( Ended up going to the outlet at marina square since we would be going back to adventure cove for the problem regarding the CD they gave us! Whooooop, lucky us, the outlet there had very little customers so we were like dominating the place with our big number of people HAHA. Had the sushi buffet which allowed us to eat until 6 (if I never rmb wrongly) so we kept stuffing ourselves with sushis cos we were so hungrrrry, until we were full at a point of time, apparently before 6 hahahaha. Rested for awhile and ordered some ala cartes! Yummmm.

Unknowingly as the time passed by, we spent half of our time there aready hehehe. While we were walking out of the place...

This shit happened :')

Find this cool heh, liann's licked by me :O

Lynn! :D

Headed to adventure cove after that! Waaa, damn sian pls. Need walked all the way back to sentosa lolol. Since only one or two were allowed inside without paying the sentosa's entrance fee, only chia and lynn went in while we waited outside! Pics taken before they went in hehehe :p

Titanic worrr. Failed la I know xD

 

(I actually made most of the pics above into collages but this is the only collage pic that's uploaded successfully :-( Must be chia's luck AHAHAHA)

While waiting for the 2 of 'em, we were borrred. And so, cheryl suggested we prepare a dance for them!!! xD I swear it was so fun and hilarious at the same time. We danced to the songs - Apink's nonono and f(x)'s electric shock! Just a snippet of both songs la. Initially, we even wanted to add gd's crayon, taeyang's ringa linga and crayon pop's jumping (or smth idk the song aha) but we ended up dancing to those two only cos they failed badly HAHAHA. When they finally came out, we began to dance hohoho. Definitely had soooo much fun practising the dance even tho I wasn't good at it :p Aiya, dance just for laughs hehe. Slacked a bit then headed back home while the rest went to chill at tamp's starbucks!

Oremisu from emicakes!!! YUMMMMM.

(Oh here's another collage pic that's uploaded successfully HAHA)

That's all for my birrrthday! Honestly, it just felt like another fun day with 'em hahahaha, didn't feel like it was my birthday (maybe except for the times the guys gave in to me cos it's my bday??? Rubbish la HAHAHA) but its okayyy! Cos I enjoyed my day with 'em which I believe is the most important one! We must feel loved and happy during our birthdays, isn't it? Hehehehe, thanks again for giving me a wonderful and crazy birthday!!! ^^ (probably the last time I'm celebrating with yguys sobs :'( ) And thanks to those who wished me happy burfdaeee hehe.

 LOVE Y'ALL :*

Goodbye ! :-)

Throwback: Results Day / Catch Up w/ Teammates :D

13 Jan.

The day most of us were scared of was officially over.

It has been 5 days since I received my results! And I've also submitted my JAE :') Before I go deeper into my JAE's life story, let me start with the results day ba!! HAHAHA. (I'll really be typing wtv that happened on that day so that I can revisit the past when I read this post in future. It's for memory sake so bear with me if u want to read on cos I swear it's gonna be grandmother story again hahaha)

So I've received good results and I'm really elated cos I didn't really expect myself to do THAT well!! (Not boasting here ok lol) Porbably one of the best birthday presents I have ever received ;-)

On that very important day or wtv u called it, my heart was palpitating like mad. I was walking around in my house b'cos I just couldn't sit still. Finally, it was time to head to sch! Met up with chia and coincidentally, dino, dx and xr who waited for me with chia. Reached school, saw many many maaany students, heart began to race even faster, legs turned jelly - whatever symptoms you'll see on a student who is panicking and worrying about their results la ok. We (the girls) hugged one another before going up to the hall. At the hall, we became even more panicky, esp. lynn, liann and I HAHA. It was kinda hilarious la now that I think back. Then, we settled down according to register number in rows with the big big screen in front of us. It started later than 2 and then the vice-principal began to have his short speech. Soon after, it was time for the results. The screen showed the names of the students with 7 distinctions and then those with 8 or more. Initially, I couldn't find my name so my heart kinda dropped. But I continued to look out for my friends' one as well!! Hehe, dino (I'm so proud of him!!! Cos a bit unexpected hehe), dx and liann appeared! Liann immediately cried with joy when she saw her name xD Later on, I saw my name!! Omg, I was so happy!!! Then, I continued to glance through and saw lynn and jj's names up there too! Lynn was the next one who cried with joy hehe. Idek how it happened, the 3 of us just went to hug one another since we sat quite close to one another HAHAHA. I bet people sitting behind us judged us but it's okkk. All of us made it to the screen due to our hardwork and I believed we deserve a hug :D Went to collect our results slip after that and I was jumping with joy when I saw my english and hcl hoshit. Not trying to brag or anything, but omg, it was my holy first time getting an A for eng and hcl in my whole freaking life!!! T-T This time, our cohort did pretty well I feel! And, I must say that all of us in the clique did well too!!! Those days where we mugged together, worked hard together, are totally worth it! I've seen some of 'em working extremely hard and it's really heartening to see them crying with joy while receiving the fruit of their labour! :-)

Well for those who didn't do expectedly well/well enuf, it is okay! Now that 5 days are already over, I believe yguys aren't that upset anymore right?? Good then! Move on and focus on what's ahead of you now. I know that said is easier than done but who knows what's planned ahead of you will be so much better than now? Fear not! When one door closes, god will open another one for you - that is if you're willing to stand back up and find more opportunities for yourself! Whatever's done is done. Don't dwell on your past and concentrate on your future! I believe all of us have considered really carefully and submitted our JAE! So it'll be a brand new route for us now. Strive even harder if you do not want to history to repeat itself! :-)

And for all of us, be it JC or poly, it'll be a brand new environment - new school, new teachers, new friends. What's important is to work hard and play hard! I believe everyone's here aiming to go uni so this is another challenge we have to take now! So lets put in our best and welcome the challenges future has installed for us!! Hehehe, all the best and good luck everyone! :-)

Here comes my life story regarding JAE....

I am one who is damn indecisive and can take forever, like literally forever, to decide on one thing. Lets say a simple thing like if I should go run in the morning or evening? Lol. I can take quite long to decide on just that. So I think u can imagine that it's even worse when I was trying to make up my mind on which JC I should go - VJC or MJC. Initally, I didn't expect myself to do that well so I didn't even thought of going to vjc, let alone attending their open house which was before the results day lol.

WHY IS IT BEFORE THE RESULTS DAY AND NOT AFTER, WHY??? T-T 

So at first, I already sort of planned to go mjc b'cos it's near my house and my future house which is at punggol. Later on, when I received my results, vjc just popped out in my head, probably b'cos someone advised me to go there ba.Yes, vjc is good and fun, definitely a better sch than mj academically wise, but then again, it takes me around 1h 20 min (freaking 80 mins) to get there when I move to Punggol which is during my J2... The distance I need to travel played a huge part in making me so extremely stressed out. If vjc is located nearer, like 30mins ride? I DON'T MIND VJ LIKE SERIOUSLY. And with my results, it's kinda wasted to go mjc... SO I DON'T KNOW. But then again, as what my father said, it's not about wasted or not. Rather, it's about if I can study well in the school - if I can't and have to suffer travelling so far, what's the point of going to a good school? Instead, it may be so much better if I go to a nearer school and work hard to maintain in the top few classes/among the top fews to secure the chance of going to a uni! I had been thinking all day, all night since the night on that day I received my results, making me moodless to do anything else - which explains my inactivity these few days. Everyone told me to choose the one I like more but I DON'T KNOW WHICH I LIKE MORE. Both seem the same to me, be it the environment or the people lol. Idk how to differentiate such things. So my mind kept revolving around 'mj or vj, vj or mj' since monday night until thursday night where I finally made my choice. I had been asking a lot of people around me for their opinions (and there was this time I actually considered RJC but put that off quickly cos my friends and myself, feel that I don't suit such an atas school hahahaha) but after all, it all comes back to how I feel or whatsoever. It all comes back to me, ME. But being ME, I don't know. I don't know what I like, what I prefer, what kind of env I will be comfortable in, can I bear with the long travelling time. I don't know. Idek how many times I've answered idk to the qns about the jcs I/my friends asked myself/me - probably zillion times? I'm not even kidding, I don't even know how to choose lol. Maybe if I didn't move to punggol, I would have chosen vj... But J2 is a crucial year and 80 mins ride from punggol is not a joke. I'm not very confident in myself to be able to tahan it, studying till late at night and waking up early in the morning. And most of my friends (and my father apparently) advise me to go mj since it's convenient and I suit mj. But then again, if I love the school, I won't mind. So questions like these revolved around my mind for like 3 days? I WENT CRAZY I SWEAR. I couldn't take it anymore, and there was this rash feeling in me of going to mj so I didn't want to think that much anymore (I think I really think too much lol) and clicked the 'submit' button. Tada, I ended up going MJC. I hope I won't regret my choice... I really hope I don't regret not going to a better school sighs.

Oh well, the choice is made and I'm kinda excited for mj now, esp. the orientation camp!! Since I'm going there with dino and chia as well ;-) Buttt, I haven't decide what subj combi I should take - another decision to make... I HATE MAKING DECISIONS LIKE THIS MAN. H A T E. HATE. T-T Sighs, why so many decisions... They're srsly draining me :-( Sighhhs, 2 weeks + more for me to have serious thought on this!! For now, I shall just relax a bit maybe 1 week more then continue to ponder on it ba :/

-

Something not that solemn now!! (Heh, sorry for the huge chunk of words up there) Went to have late lunch/dinner with my teammates after collecting our results on that day. At first, we planned to have lunch de but rafizan had not finished her shooting drills yet so she couldn't leave :-( Being her good teammates, we decided to wait for her hahahaha. While waiting for her....

These pics should be enuf to compensate your boredom while reading what's above just now ba HAHAHA. We (or rather jazz HAHA) spammed a lot of pics and these are just some of 'em hehehe. Headed to Pizza Hut after zan's finished with her trng! :D

Ordered this hehe, it doesn't taste good to me probably b'cos the cheese's quite little and the pasta's a bit hard :-(

So we spent our time at pizza hut eating, chit-chatting and catching up with one another!! Actually, I couldn't remember what exactly we did while eating la but those should be it! I was kinda tired then with my eyes almost closing hahaha. But I remembered that we had lots of laughters - it happens whenever we're tgt!! xD Definitely had a great time with 'em even tho it was just a short period of time! Hopefully, we'll meet up with one another soon? Not sure tho since nat and zan are having school :-( Anyways, I'm glad that our team spirit or wtv u called it is still there even though we hadn't met up together for very long already since idk when! Miss those days where we trained hard together, encouraged one another to persevere on, got scoldings from coach and all... B'cos of yguys, I acutally miss bball trainings :') Really hope that all of us will still be in contact even if we go to different schools and separate ways!!!

 All the best girls!!! Will always be loving and missing you guys! #weisteam ftw ;-)
