we couldnt find a single issue of duet, winkup, potato, popolo or myojo magazines at kino.
how freaky is that!
sold out so fast??
so we went cineleisure and to our astonishment,
the black shop was not opened.

and since it doesnt open on weekdays too,
i really dunno how they pay the rent and earn profits ya.

had to rush down to the clarke quay after that cos i found a job there :))))))
it's how scary!
the pple there dont look very friendly.=S
hope we can get along everyone!

twn and i had pepper lunch again for dinner and seriously the food is very good.^^
i love the outlet at Central!
juz because they play lots of Otsuka Ai songs there when we were eating.

went out with gillian ytd!
we went to apply for a job at a restaurant but up till now the manager still hasnt called and i feel so disillusioned alrdy.
he said he will call but no, he didnt!
how terrible.

and then i walked around town these few days with my brother and his gf when they have leave.
kinda extra,
but it's okay!
we can have lots of fun as well.;)

and met up with the ps buddies!
wee came and left and we were all so bu shuang cos he always pangseh us=P

japan is so interesting!^o^



and he bought me this doraemon cube clock which will display different stuffs when u rotate it.
so cool ne!
that's an authentic dorayaki from JAPAN! u know, the food doraemon always eats.
guess wat's that. from left: conditioner, lotion and shampoo from a japan hotel. they are so particular bout packaging huh:)
that's their cola can! it's plastic. u know japan has lots of vending machines on the streets, and that's how their cans look like. so cute!
and woah look at that:o
that's a box made of waffle biscuit with a large scoope of ice-cream inside.

comes in various flavours such as rashberry, chocolate, mint choco, green tea, banana etc.
but only sold in japan.

awwwwwwww=X

anyway, im so tired now.

haha, not after jc life^o^

oh no it's 12.01am now.
i took half an hr to type this post, which isnt very long-.-
that's really cos my bro spoilt my keyboard,
n i have to click one letter by one letter on the vey small on-screen keyboard,

it was terrible because i have a sore throat and it's so difficult to swallow anything:(

and in the afternoon, nette taught us piano!
it was fun.^o^
although i still cant really read the link between the notes and the keys.
it's amazing gillian can actually know how to play the piano on her first lesson alrdy!
im really not sure bout that.

it started pouring, so me and hui had to wait till it stopped before we can go.
i read a book of hanakimi at nette's!
it has been quite a while since i read a manga.
took very long to finish it=P
it's nice!
it's actually the same as the taiwan ver drama.
but u know i still love the jap ver more dont u? :DDD

i made NY cheesecake!
i really hope it tastes good.
it has the best top surface out of all the cakes i had made previously:)
so pretty.

anyway, D&D was on tuesday.
(almost) everyone looked glam/cool/different/pretty.
and table no. 2 has a lot of pretty gals! haha.
that's my table for your info.
all 0306 girls are pretty in the first place anyway, so no surprise:)
lots of phototaking!^.^
but i didnt bring a camera, so waiting for the rest to upload.
i was sitting at my table most of the time while the rest were walking around to take photos.
how loner i am!T^T
and twin was sitting at her rifle table, i missed her so much.
prom queen was expected, though prom king was not.
and the dance was unnecessary!=]
they expect us to groove along to 'umbrella' in the ballroom izzit.
and everything ended with nette's parents fetching us home.
they are so nice!:D u know.

im so going to miss everyone from aj.
those that deserved to be missed^o^

and i suddenly feel like watching hanazakari no kimitachi e.
the drama. jap one.
cos i miss seeing toma! :D
cant wait for his new drama honey and clover which will only airs next yr.
ah.

im getting fatter staying home all day. Y.Y

Sunday, December 9, 20073:50 PMfunny ryo
i juz watched an not-so-recent interview of leah dizon by ryo-chan, yoko and okura. and it's so funny! leah dizon is so cute with her big eyes. but she keeps looking over at yoko, and ryo was like super jealous. because ryo likes her! a lot a lot. he goes to her blog everyday, juz like a big fan of hers. but when leah dizon turned to look at him with puppy eyes, he literally melted on the spot haha. wah they are so cute! although ryo is sexy ya, leah dizon is too sexy for him ehhhhh, so i rather he be single haha. and now im so tired from all the laughing XD

Thursday, December 6, 20077:23 PMt3
went the new Changi T3 juz now with nette, chuan, kh, hui, tys and wilson.
the place is so pretty and spacious! the ceiling's very high and fitted with special reflectors to optimise sunlight diffused into the hall, and there are a lot of high glass walls! very pretty:)

since there's the open house now, we were able to tour the check-in hall, arrival hall, viewing mall as well as the transit mall for juz an entrance fee of one dollar! so cheap. and there may not be much chances to walk around the transit mall of T3 since only Singapore Airlines passengers are able to take their planes there. ah. anyways it's so cool although lots of shops are not open yet, the main design is there and u can really see how excellent it is. Singapore is a great city!:) and i think T3 muz be at least 1km in length. chuan says needs about 14mins to walk from one end to another in the transit mall=/ so looooooooooooong.

and we took lots of photos! but it's in nette's camera, will post them up after she uploads them:) i realised that they all like to have "heart-to-heart" talks. words that are so close to the heart and personal that i feel so paiseh listening to them.
thay are so funny! maybe cos there's chuan and hui who always ask those kind of weird qns and the very innocent wilson who will juz spill out everything he knows:D but it's very interesting really haha. laughed a lot.

took the bus home and it was crowded! but we all felt so sleepy even though we were standing #.#

and i juz saw this very cute questionnaire done by NEWS in Wink Up jan 2008 issue. although i cant say that my jap is good at all, but i managed to understand what the qns are and what NEWS' replies are. and there's this one qn that says ''Christmas is coming alrdy. Have u written a letter for Santa?'' and Massu one was ''have have! o genki desu ka?'' that's asking if Santa is in good health=P so concern so cute! haha. and Yuya's reply was '' pls give me a present because i have been a good child'' and i was like, that's juz as innocent as Massu! *melts* they are so cute:)

9:19 AMstayover
stayover was high!
at least for me haha. we played 21games of mahjong and successfully completed 4rounds! nette won all our chips for 2 times and i was the one who always borrowed from the bank. the potato chips were causing mine and nana's downfall, we believed haha. cannot eat too much potato chips! they're unhealthy and bring bad luck. we only managed to play 1 game of bridge after that before junjun fell asleep, so we went to sleep too. how were we supposed to play bridge with 3 pple right? we muz play more bridge next time! i kinda forget how to play already though, it's been so long since i'd met them! but we can still talk and laugh laugh like nothing has changed, which is very happy for me:)

anyway, it has been raining from ytd morning till now.
i hate climate change! :O
on the other hand, i love my ps buddies for the wonderful birthday present:) I LOVE YOU GALS!

Wednesday, December 5, 200711:43 PMps
it's Wednesday! omg time flies.
went out with the ps buddies juz now.
i was in a ''i cannot buy ANYTHING today'' mood cos im broke! again.
and so i didnt try on any new clothes and stuff in case i cannot stop myself u know. maybe a few shoes but that's all! im such an impulse buyer D:
i really didnt buy anything! wah can u believe it.
but i spent all my money on dinner instead. crap..

World AIDS Day

According to UNAIDS estimates, there are now 33.2 million people living with HIV,
including 2.5 million children.

During 2007 some 2.5 million people became newly infected with the virus.

Around half of all people who become infected with HIV do so before they are 25 and are killed by AIDS before they are 35.

Around 95% of people with HIV/AIDS live in developing nations. But HIV today is a threat to men, women and children on all continents around the world.

Started on 1st December 1988, World AIDS Day is not just about raising money, but also about increasing awareness, fighting prejudice and improving education. World AIDS Day is important in reminding people that HIV has not gone away, and that there are many things still to be done.

Visit the World AIDS Day page to learn what you can do to commemorate the event!
