Alizee

Linky to a vid of a hawt French chick.. Look at those hips move!! *sizzle* And she does the sideways wave similar to the night elf female dance about 3/4 into the vid. Who cares if it's a nonsensical song about taking a bubble bath? :P

Pix!

Happy Birthday to me!

The big 21. Woah.. So old now!

Had a wonderful BBQ.. If you ignore the fact that it rained and the fire went out. :P But I still really enjoyed myself and I didn't get as drunk as I feared I would, thanks to Francis. He made a deal to persuade me to play his drinking game - for every time I had to drink he would match me. After two and a half bottles of Absolut, the Alcohol King was probably worse off than me.. :D

I want to thank everyone for coming, and also for all the well wishes and lovely presents! I <3 them all! Screenshot of the loot.. Errm I mean photo of the pressies. :P (The bottle of water is labelled "Chype® Brand Crystal Water" lol!)

Merry Christmas!

Had Christmas eve dinner at my grandaunty's place last night.. Yum! She's a superb cook and my bro-in-law is hooked on her buah keluak, which is a Peranakan speciality. It's an aquired taste, but my bro-in-law likes it so much that he asked my grandaunty to teach my sis how to prepare the dish!

Went to my favourite seafood restaurant for Christmas dinner, Jumbo at East Coast Park! There are many other seafood restaurants in the area, but to me Jumbo will always be the best. It cetainly is the busiest! :P

I need to finish sorting out my junk now.. Before my birthday party on 27th! And tomorrow will be a busy day buying all the yummy food. So.. back to work then!

Lost

Feeling very confused lately.. So much to do, so little time! But then I'm so lethargic and I don't feel like doing anything. I'd bet it's my procrastination syndrome striking again.

WoW Quiz

Took a quiz about what WoW race and class suited my personality.. Not bad! I do indeed have a human warlock. :P

Human Warlock



Humans tend to be the ones in the middle. Not as sexy as the Night Elves; not as stumpy as the dwarves or gnomes. As a human, you pretty much go with the flow of things.

You're a creepy, creepy warlock. You delight in the darker things in life - such as setting people on fire, and delight in the macabre. You'd probably fake your own death just to freak people out by getting up from the casket at your funeral.

House of Paranakan

Celebrated my dad's birthday yesterday.. Had dinner at the House of Paranakan restaurant in Meritus Negara Hotel. Mmm.. Yum! I especially liked the prawns. :D

Results!

My results are out! Got 3 credits and a distinction for Ecology! The credit for Biostats is a nice surprise too. I'm quite happy.. :)

Update on the Insaniquarium

Some interesting new additions to the tank..

Miff the whiffle ball. He eats ice cream.

Mr Kilgore is another super rare prenamed fish, like Mickey (aka Rocky). He sings songs by Wagner.

Monsta appears to be a tamed alien.. But you never know. :)

Wonderwall

Wonderwall by Oasis won this week's mp3 vote with a grand total of two votes. :P Will set up new poll soonish!

The internet is for porn!

Linky! Bahaha.. One of the funniest WoW movies I've ever seen. :P Don't worry, no nudity or anything like that.

mp3 poll

If you hadn't noticed, I finally found time to put up a new mp3 poll.. So vote ok? :D

Discuss disgust

I'm never touching wine again. Ever. I've never particularly liked wine, but yesterday was enough to make me swear off it forever.

Attended a friend's bbq and got sucked into a drinking game.. Big mistake number 1. :P But at first they were drinking vodka mixers, and I'm fine with that. Heck, I'm even fine with vodka shots. But after we finished a couple of jugs, they decided to move on to wine.

My second big mistake came when I made enemies with the host's husband and wife team. 2v1, bad. Kenna 3-hit combo by them, had to drink 3 whole cups of wine. Good game.

I suppose red wine is great in little sips when you're eating a yummy steak. But it gulping down by the plastic cup is disgusting. Having to bottoms up 3 times in quick succession is absolutely disastrous.

I'm usually a pretty good drinker.. Had it been 3 shots of vodka I'd probably have been fine, albeit high. But I'd never drunk wine like that before. So I wasn't exactly prepared for what happened next.

It came suddenly, I didn't even feel any nausea. I just leaned over the side of the chair and barfed. Alot. It was horribly disgusting.. At least I didn't puke on anyone else, thankfully. :P

I couldn't walk very well at that point, and they had to half carry me over to another chair so they could clean up. I'm a giggler when I'm drunk, so I just sat there laughing hysterically.

It might be awhile before I live down the embarassment. *blush*

Haircut!

Finally got my hair cut at Kimage.. It's been almost a year since scissors last touched my hair! So dry and so many split ends.. So embarassing! Coincidentally, the same hairdresser who gave me my last haircut almost one year ago was there, and so she did my hair again today too. :P Didn't cut much off, just got rid of most of the split ends and put in abit of layering.. But I coloured my hair! I've got streaks of red and blonde, which seems to be the in thing recently. It's very nice.. I love it! :D It does look a little ahlian-ish, but heck.. This might be the last chance I have to experiment with crazy colours before I have to settle for boring stuff at work. :P

A picture upon request.. But I refuse to pose for the camera.. :P

The food fest continues..

Had another great day enjoying Singaporean food yesterday, this time with SunniGal as my eating companion! We used to be best friends waaay back when in primary school. It's amazing how long it has been! :P

The Park Lane wanton mee stall that we were heading for is actually nearer to Douby Ghaut MRT station, but we alighted at City Hall 'coz Sunni wanted to show me SMU's new campus. It's pretty high tech.. Their student cards work like EZ-Link and are used to access the uni proper. However, the underground concourse is open to the public, and houses some shops along the way. The wanton mee was superb! Definately one of my favourite wanton mee stalls. :)

We then went to Ice Monster for dessert and shared some mango slush thing, which was really very nice! Basically, it's chunks of mango on finely shaved ice, topped with a scoop of mango sherbet and smothered with mango puree. Yum!

Walked over to Bugis Junction.. One of my favourite shopping centres! There are a million things that I love to eat there, and I adore all the little shops selling all manner of cute things! Sunni wanted me to try some cheese stick thing, but at that point I was really really full already. :P So we walked around and took a look in a shop selling those cat calendars that I mentioned in my wishlist.. So cute! I want them all.. Hehehe!

Found a pair of nice but cheap sunglasses.. Another lady was eyeing them too, she kept asking to take a look, and even asked the storekeeper if there was another pair. I kept a firm grip on mine 'till I paid, 'coz it was the last piece besides the display pair! Bought two pairs of earrings too. Sunni tells me it's very common to see 2 for $2 earrings here in Singapore! I foresee my earring collection exploding.

I was tired after all that walking, so we sat down at Mos Burger for a drink and chatted away 'till she had to go for a meeting. I had a raid to attend too, so I went home first.. But after her meeting, Sunni came down to see the renovated place and say hi to my mom. I almost split myself into two trying to raid and entertain her at the same time.. So paiseh! The raid was on Chromaggus at the time, and I kept getting incinerated 'coz I wasn't really paying attention. :P But thankfully she was very understanding and gracefully said she wanted to catch the 9 o'clock show on TV. (If you're reading this Sunni.. THANK YOU! :D)

Went out for Jalan Kayu prata after the raid with Mark, Nick and Ban.. Adrian was supposed to join us too but he called in sick at the last minute. :P Sat around chit chatting until the wee hours.. Ended up going to bed at 5am! *yawn*

How to NOT get into Seraphim

Linky to an application on my guild forums. This rogue applied to Seraphim, so he was told to wait for a response from a rogue CO (class officer). However, Nyxus started questioning him about his fire resist. And this smart guy said something like "I'll talk to a rogue CO, not some random priest with a mouth". *applaud*

Even though he resigned from Guildmaster status, Nyxus still holds a ranking position in the guild and his input remains highly regarded. So.. I guess this is one rogue who won't be joining Seraphim, ever. :P

Absolut Apeach

Awaiting the big day.. :)

Just a Girl

Just a Girl by No Doubt won the poll for mp3 of the week with just two votes.. Come on people! Vote! :P

Yummy!

Had a long day yesterday..

Accompanied my boyfriend to visit his grandparents and gave them some of the mangoes we brought back from Australia. Had a discussion on the bus why some people buy houses that look really nice on the outside, but don't bother to spend any effort decorating the interior. It continues to baffle me. Oo?

Met up with Aaron, Nick, Sam, Mark, Damian and Peter for Sakae Sushi buffet at Heeren! I proceeded to stuff myself silly. :P Yum! Went to Cyberdome for awhile after that and played a game of DoTA. Also read up on some of the drama going on involving our guild on the realm forums! We're usually rather low key, so a thread about us is rare. Linky to the soap opera!

Went down to some ulu place behind Boat Quay called Hideout. A bunch of WoW players meet there during every Tuesday maintenance.. So geeky! Hehehe.. But it's actually not bad, cosy interior, nice music, interesting drinks. Hard to find though, 'coz it's on the third floor, and you can easily miss the sign and stairs leading up to it. I had a Caprioska, which is basically just a vodka lime. One of their special cocktails was some funny Milo Bailey's drink, which looked just like Milo ping (ice) that you buy from the coffee shop!

Went for supper at Bedok 85 Market. Mmmm.. Bak chor mee! Wanted to eat the porridge also, but everyone was too lazy to walk over to that side. :P

Finally went home after that, was so tired! Went to bed at almost 3am, which is 6am in Australia! Ah.. A long but yummy day. :D

Home sweet home!

Yup.. I'm back in Singapore! I would have never believed that I'd miss feeling hot and sticky. It's great to be home! My niece, whom I haven't seen for almost a year, still sort of recognises me.. I think! Can't wait to get started on my food fest.. Already got booked for sushi buffet tomorrow afternoon with Aaron and co.!

My mom renovated my room while I was gone. I didn't want to complain to her 'coz she actually went through alot of shit with the lousy contractor already, but I don't really like it. For starters, I HATE mirrors. And my mom told him NO mirrors in my room. No. Zero. Nada. But the STUPID idiot put in FOUR(!!!) FULL-LENGTH(!!!) mirrors. So ya.. I'm not exactly lovin' it at the moment. :P

Nefarian go splat

Yep, we finally beat him. As always when we first down a boss, the sense of accomplishment is exhilarating. Must be why I lost my mind and busted a shitload of points on the hawt headpiece that he dropped. :P For the curious WoW players.. Linky!

RIP

Nguyen Tuong Van was hung on Friday morning. From the results for the poll on "What do you think about the Nguyen Tuong Van drama?", I conclude that my blog readers are definately not humanitarians. :P It was a tie between "Hang lah!" and "Make him eat the heroin, if he survives, let him go free!", with 3 votes each..

I don't think the drama is over yet though. Boycott Singapore goods!

To hell and back

T'was a dark and stormy night. A flash of lightning lit up the sky.. And the lights went out. Yup, the power got cut. No big deal, just flick the power switches and back in action. Or so we thought.

Turned out the lightning damaged the underground wiring. Result? Two days without power. Relive the Dark Ages! We'd just bought THREE large pizzas that day, and tucked them nicely into the fridge. Unfortunately, no power, no fridge. Bye bye, Meatosaurus, El Scorcho and Chicken Monaco. Along with a ton of frozen food (we're lazy :P) and my unopened carton of milk. Sigh. No lights. No computer. No stove. NO HOT WATER. Couldn't even take a nice steamy shower.

So after two days of hell.. They finally fixed it. Then.. The phone line decided to go kaput. Called the telephone company, got put on hold until the mobile phone ran out of cash. So I went down to their store and used the phone there. Finally got to talk to a REAL person after an hour of recorded messages and annoying music. Unfotunately, they couldn't send anyone over 'till Tuesday, so I told them to just cancel the line.

You'll never guess what happened next. Well.. Today the phone line is working again. So I think I'd better call them up to cancel the cancellation, hmm?

Could things get any worse? Maybe tomorrow our water will run out..
