long summary
[info]potatoestar
on monday morning 30th dec, aunty left. i was with her at airport. the queue was really messy for the first time i experience in changi airport. 1 counter led to two equally long queues, and the dumb red guy just told us to keep queueing where we were!!!

i tot that this wld be a bad idea, and it was.

after it was too late to change and people started to complain because the wrong queue wasn't going anywhere, and then i witness a really too typical scene. the airport women just kept telling us to stay in line but nobody was gonna listen after queueing so long.

so she flippantly without calling anyone, went to pull a line across the wrong queue, then this foreign guy got mad and tore the line away from her. then she was like "don't touch me! you're not supposed to touch me" and i thought, omg, i did not just hear her say that cuz i thought people were like supposed to be a little bit more then have some sense in dealing with a angry crowd!!

after that a manager came and tried to solve the problem, but made it worse. two lines became three lines, and people started jumping queue. after awhile there wasn't even any queue any more, but a mess of people pushing to get their tickets.

its ridiculous because when people tried to ask other personnel, they said they only did their respective airlines.

it was like a drama. after that aunty had to rush for the plane so i went off and took the skytrain to terminal 2 and took a long mrt ride home.

=======================================================================

for various reasons maybe 1 will know, i've been depressed and crying on and off, and totally hadn't the mood to do anything, or even talk, or even think, n my appetite is messed up. but i guess work helps me get distracted, while im at work im better. but work has alot of stuff to learn cuz its admin. i don't think i can do both drawing n admin at the same time. i guess i'll try.

there are alot of things i was supposed to write but i don't even remember or have the energy to write.

oh, my taobao order arrived today at sab hse. going over to do opening ceremony on weekend.

em. cant rmb what else...

oyea..today went to try n get handphone, but my contract ends only next june. i still wana get ice cream hp. if terminate now costs 300. if i buy icp also 300. no point. just wait it out i guess.

and me n mom n dad were lucky to accidently witness a firework at vivo city. pics up tmr. cheered me up a little.

@ Daisy on 23/11/09

Today Sis n KC came over for a short while and brought Daisy!!!!!
A 2+ months old female golden retriever

She's not toilet trained yet, and really inquisitive!

Joey doesn't like her and is bothered by her!!!!!

In fact Joey was so scared all her saliva came out -_- Then after that she got annoyed at Daisy and barked at her when she came too close.

who would hate a cute lil doggy like me~~~

'Grandma, what big paws you have!'

spot daisy dogging joey around? *laugh*
one of joey's hiding places.

But of course, everybody gets tired after awhile

Daisy peed in the living room :x

Then a few hrs later sis n k.c came to pick her up, she was so tired she had to be carried down to the car!

@Home
[info]potatoestar
Today I stayed home

Lunch was curry, steamed fish, veggies

i helped to chop up stuff!
the fire had a nice color
Then i took pics of the kitchen
aunty!

kitchen window view

joey view

I shut the door and proceeded to organize my make up items

it took a long time to arrange!!!
and then i packed it into a basket

After that i just lazed around and finished a book about dragons as the main char, but i didn't really like it, throughout it didn't really focus on the dragon's growth, nor did it fish out the significant events. Its like reading the world through a totally flat plane. I probably won't be reading the other book.

Then i played some okami, trashed the spider queen and waka (wahahaha). Then ate dinner, which was porridge. Then went on msn, where i had a quarrel with emma, but it was sorted out like always, but i will always be learning.

Blogging is tiring.

@Singapore Flyer
[info]potatoestar
This morning went to clementi to meet mom to cr8 a joint bank account cuz im to store $50 every month from when im working, to have back up $$ for emergencies. mom had to put in an initial $500 though @_@ if inside no $500, each month have to pay $2!! omigosh. so now i have a new card to take care of. mom took the bankbook cuz i dint wana XD

then went home for lunch.


i tried make-up again, i feel like im using up alot of cotton wools. i still can't use mascara well, and i played around too much with the eyeliner lol! but it seems like the pencil eyeliner is not very good, cuz its faint and when i tried to smudge it with a brush like in ken's intro-ed vid, it doesn't look nice at all >.< and even if i have this much makeup, i dun seem to have any in the vid at all =.=
using my tabletop mirror helps!
then i totally didn't know how to use the eyelash curler thing! i tried kiaping my eyelash n pulling, but i can't really see it becoming clearer.

and my white eyeliner broke after using it just once ._. like wutz. its a 7.90 maybelline eyeliner pencil!!!!aunty had to use a satay stick push out the rest from behind. i duno whats wrong with this, im not getting it anymore. i don't even know if i can use it well. the thing about make up is that if its wrong, u can't use it n u can't give it away, its totally wasted in both product and money. they shld give shorter sticks n smaller price tags so its okay to make mistakes .-.

in the end i washed away everything and re-applied moisturizer, foundation and lipstick/gloss. i put base lipstick, then crystal gloss, then honey gloss.

i really love the honey lip pump from majolica majorca (i saw it on sandra's fb). it makes the whole lip look really shimmery. but of course, lip gloss really wears out fast, esp after u eat/drink. so this is why girls bring their makeup out with them in the toilet!!!

@4pm i went to suntec for my *date* with emma =) He's treating me to singapore flyer n dinner for my belated bdae ^_^

marina square

we went marina square for dinner. We were wandering around wondering what to eat for dinner when emma said Jack's Place and i'd never eaten there b4, so there we went.

inside

Then emma gave me my birthday presents!!!

First:
A GIANT CINNAMOROLL <3333333333
Then i ask him take pic of me with the pressies


Second:
A Mystery Gift!! What could it be?

Answer:


BASARAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LIKE OMG ITS BASARA CHIBI FIGURINES!!! *MWAUH* (* 3 *)

*huggles box*
Thanks emma~~~ I really love the presents u gave me~~ *Touched*

Then the food came
Mine, a cream sauce fish fillet
Emma's, a mixed grill

Emma claimed that mine was nicer, but its probably cuz his has no sauce. Then he paid for the meal and we went off. Then i took more pics of inside the centre.
its WINX lol
moar shiny decos

Then we went to Singapore Flyer. Or at least, we tried. emma lost his way cuz the flyer was blocked from his view lol (his mantra: if you can see it, its walkable) While we were walking around i took some pictures.

tree decos HARO POWAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! indian themed music stage

Then he called his dad to drive his taxi over to fetch us there. When we reached i took some more pics of decos
a twisted xmas tree doves!!

when emma went to collect tix, this guy walk past while i was taking photo, then the effect came out like this!!!!

then i took a pic when we went up escalator
here comes the box!

golf course expressway other box
inside the box bridge
The sights were beautiful that i enjoy it peacefully~ I was sorry to go down >.< Thanks emma for the wonderful experience!
We went down the ramp which was like airport ramp and to the tourist shop

mini flyer

We then left the shop for the mrt. On the way I saw this GIANT BEAR!!!!

emma said it has expensive written all over it

Then we went through a tunnel, n there was this art display which lasted almost the whole of the tunnel.



they were really cute, like from old storybooks like enid blyton and charles dickens style characters.

While close to the MRT we saw these being sold @ $5 per packet. It looks like sushi styrofoam, but its marshmallow wrapped in chocolate! It tastes nice!

emma bought a packet for me ^^ he ate one

After this we went home.
It was a great day.
Thank you Emma!

@ Jurong East IMM on Wed 25th Nov
[info]potatoestar
Went to Imm at Jurong East with aunty. Intend to buy make up and also go daiso. Took a bus to dover mrt n then to jurong mrt. then we walked to the shuttle bus stop.

there was a nice view


on the bus

when i went in, what did i see but more christmas trees



then me n aunty made our way to SASA, a shop with make up. i splurged and spent $110 on
liquid eyeliner, eye makeup remover, eyelash tweezers, fake eyelash, moisturizer, makeup remover, eyelash curler, brow brush/comb, 2x lip glass, lipstick, lipliner
I splurged alot on makeup 0.0

after t
his we went looking for daiso. took awhile to find it, so i took some pics along the way


then we finally found it on lvl 3 at the back to the side :o



inside were a few cute cups




Then i bought some cotton stuffings, a tabletop small mirror for makeup, brushes for makeup, clear nail enamel, a packet of thread and a nail file. Again couldn't find the materials i needed. So we went home
But not before i passed by watson and decided to buy these 2
honey pump lip gloss n white eyeliner

we walked to the drop off point forgetting that it wasn't the pickup point and had to walk all the way back again ;_;

then me n aunty went to take bus behind the library. i went into the lib to buy 2 chocolate ice cream drinks first.


then home away

@ Paya Lebar on Tues Nov 24
[info]potatoestar
Today me and Aunty went to Paya Lebar! I wanted to look for cloth, and on sgc there was saying it was cheap n alot of variety.

taken on the mrt




---> O_O suddenly a row of withered plants

a nice fountain

Then we reached our destination, Joo Chiat Complex



The Inside


After this, to cut long story short, I couldn't find any lycra at all. Not a single stretchy material NOR pvc. Am i looking in the wrong place? :\ All I did was to buy a orange cloth, some stretchy rubber band, black/white thread, orange thread and stiff netting to insert between cloth for steadiness. I was tempted to buy the glue gun, but i thought to buy it in art friend instead.


Me and Aunty went to take mrt to Bukit Merah library because the payar lebar mrt was too far. Then after borrowing some books using bro's ezlink card, we went home.

@ AFA Day 2
[info]potatoestar
I went to AFA again.
@10+Pek was like hp in the morn n said who wants a extra tix, n i said ken did. so we were to meet him later @ 2pm

I changed and went off to meet ken @ suntec.

all my tries at taking the suntec xmas tree fails -.-

if you see a WOP (wall of photogs)

Then on our way to the mrt above (we were tired of city link) There was a printer company offering free roses and photo, so we decided to take it ^^ Sammie's only gonna upload pic after she moves.

P.S When i alighted at buona vista feeling nice about the flower n swishing it around, then when i went down o bus stop, i heard like small laughter then i saw a couple holding exact same flower, i was like O///O then quickly stuffed teh rose into my bag, so pai seh >.<

Then when i went home, I found this!

Great World City
Me n parents went to Great World City to meet sis and b-i-l for my bdae dinner (really late one) at ichiban sushi. luckily we didn't need to wait long. We switched tables like 3 times and still ended up the same arrangement -_-

We paid the bill and went off (the 4 of us ate totaled to $50.50 /omg)

after that we went back to suntec again


the 3rd floor where many cosers n photogs are a group of photogs with ttgl cosers


the regional cosplay competition. and now you know why there were no cosplay photos. my hp sucks this much.

The cool and awesome Kaname☆ was a judge at the competition (<3) cos-ing as a Gurren Laggen char(Simon?). His costume is really good (he also looks really good <3)
During the giving out of the cert, he gave everyone a hug!!! Including the gundam! lol!! When a girl was too shy (how cld u miss this chance girl?!) he kissed the signed cert instead!!!! (i can just see fangirls eyeing that lucky cert)
Sadly, thanks to this crappy hp, I couldn't get a picture of kaname. >:0 Nor did i get a chance to see him NOT surrounded by bodyguards in suits = = this ish so not fairrrrrrrrrrr OTL

I think i might become a kaname fan XD

after that shoko-tan came up to give the special prize, and Aniki came to give the grand prize~! i still think that singaporeans are too shy to cheer and roar for their idols!! shoko-tan and aniki deserve a lot more love from us me thinks!!!!

And the Winner of BOTH Special Prize and Grand Prize?

the awesome, the magnificen- er..able-to-dismantle gundam!!
but really, the gundam was really awesome. i really liked the witchblade team though, the costume is super super cool.


End of AFA Day 1 Pics

After this we filled in a survey and got a mameshiba mini picture-changing card~ then went to visit sabrina, then me and sammie went off le. i parted ways with her and went to join emma-tachi. on the way down, i saw a funny scene

sumo wrestling! sumo suits available!

actually i saw the mascots of the 2011th youth olympics, Lyo and Merly (i realized a long time later that Merly is a girl. Our merlion is officially a female. And her companion is our singapore logo's boy lion.) but i couldn't take picture cuz kena shooed -.-
but i did get a balloon


which i later gave to small kid with her mom

then i left to meet john at the duck tour. then we went to find emma n jevi.

decorations in another tower

L to R - John, Jevi, Emmanuel

By the way, Jevi managed to break a table outside a manicure salon LOL by sitting on it cuz he tot it was a chair :X then we hurry and ran away hahaha

I bought a cinnamoroll toy!!!

and also sweets were inside
+

= so cuteee <333

but i later found out this was just the base! got other things to attach!

Then we went to Carl's Junior to eat burgers. It was delicious, the fries in beef chilli sauce was really interesting.
After that we went home.

A picture of my dressing for the day ^^ its not as heaty as it looks

for AFA day 2. though i don't think i will be staying long.
Kaname's cosplay talk session is CLOSED PANEL. It means i CAN'T GO FOR IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Words can't explain how disappointed i am T__________T

I hope that
Kaname☆ will come next year!!!! So that i can properly take pics and attend a session ^_^

P.S oh my stars this blog took a frigging 2 hrs+ to write ._. why did i ever start a blog?!

Oh and emma passed me smth ;3
happy wondering what it is

20th Nov
[info]potatoestar
Today morning early I went to JP Medical Centre for check up part II. It was really quick! Like less then 1 minute the x-ray over liao. Changing clothes took longer. Im glad I didn't have to take out my earrings.

Then me n aunty went to This Fashion to look at clothes, but there was either something missing or something extra or something just not right. I always dislike getting the "what, you're not buying anything after trying so many?" aura from the service girls at the changing room @@ makes me feel so guilty. but then, 1 shorts cost $40?day light robbery!

then me and aunty stopped by ntuc@dover on the way home to buy food.


bought veggies and tau kwa(for the black egg soup)
the small xmas tree at the ntuc

then went home. i cooked lunch! scrambled eggs, chye sim, rice. garlic smell sure is difficult to get rid of. but it was a nice n simple meal. im learning! albeit slowly.

then there was some mess that included samantha, emma, kenneth, the tailor, the flyer an kinokuniya.

but this is how it turned out. me and samantha went to kino@orchard cuz there was a 20% discount. sammie bought alot of books. i just bought this basara cover mag @$22.40. I didnt get the discount cuz i didn't realize you needed membership :\

the basara(n others) mag

then we rushed to city hall where we waited for sammie's maid to come pass her the printed afa receipt for the tix. then we rushed to the suntec lvl 4 convention hall. then i realized i have no more $$ thanks to ezlink fare. then we rushed to b1, which we couldn't find, then we ran around suntec and found the posb n i took $$ out of bank. i tell u my $$ is flowing even faster then the speed of sound.

then we rushed back to lvl 4 where we finally bought the tix, we barely made the 6pm mark.

me n sammie's tix

sammie's maid had brought along my sengoku basara x limited edition which i ordered form playasia X3 whee!

the box

sammie's hp recorded the entire dismantling of he package!!!! haha we were like crazy girls in one corner.

then kenneth came and we went to a MOF@Ikizakaya for dinner~ Me and sammie had curry rice while ken had miso ramen.
I forgot to take pictures again -_-

While on our way to the mrt i took some more pics

the santa @ suntecthe xmas tree @ swensens

sammie with the fish tank(can u spot the fishes?)

then after that we rushed to the tailor at chinatown, karen turned out to be older then i thought! but it was abit sad that there was alot about our costume that she couldn't do. so we decided to try sammie's neighbour tailor and maybe other options another time.

ken took bus n we took mrt home. it was a tiring day.

but somehow, i slept at 2.30am. bad idea X_X

its a banana.

@ NTU
[info]potatoestar
Yesterday

It was my bdae.

I went NTU to sign and collect my contract for NTU.

Then I went to eat Sakae Sushi but there are no pics :( i forgot again.

the xmas tree outside jp

the decorations inside jp
my fav! peach flavor yami yogurt!

then i went home.

I finished watching bloody monday.

Mom and Dad came back early in the morning. I was sleeping

Today

I went to the tile showroom with mom n dad. Then mom went to alexandra hospital, cuz she scalded her hand with boiling water in china >.< then got big bubbles! then the hospeople wrapped her 3 fingers in plasticy material.

then ate lunch at alexandra. the food wasn't really good. and it costed $2.50!

I went to NTU to do medical check up Part 1. Dad took me, but the place was difficult to find, had to ask 2 people. It was like in a dark corner like the first girl said ._.

then did the checkup n everything then went home. part two is tomorrow.

I talked to Emma on the hp for a very long time.

I saw the comics he drew for me bdae :P



I laughed cuz my email is ebil. (Haha)

I went to type this blog.

I went to sleep.

Good night.

Blog Editted on 21st Nov Sat

First Sewing Machine
[info]potatoestar
I went to Clementi to get a sewing machine! and also some bird seed

on the bus

at home

instruction booklet

standard accessories, of which i have no clue what is what

size comparison

when you just look at the sewing machine, the size seems fine. when you compare it, its bigger then you think!! and heavy!

I kinda screwed up, i actually managed to sew the cloth onto the machine ._________.

then had to cut it free using scissors. it was a scary wad of threads i wasted @.@ must be careful in future.
dun dare touch le, wait till aunty friend comes and teach a few stuff lol

i wonder which sewing class i shld go to, Yi Chiah @clementi or Kadomay @ Outram?

Parents are coming back tomorrow..no more nice peaceful outings or stay-at-home with aunty Y_Y

UPDATE

YAY aunty's friend fixed it ^^ we were winding everything wrongly lol. I started watching bloody monday.

i had japanese curry for dinner today ^^

After @ Tampines
[info]potatoestar
Tampines sure is crowded! First I went to drop off books at the tampines library

I saw a xian there.

yes. in the library.

Then I went to the mall

merry christmas!

The inside was very shiny

i liek.

There were many decorations

in isetan

somehow, this reminds me of nutcracker

playing with the camera on the elevator :D

I went to courts to look at the sewing machines, but they were all so big and heavy, i decided to get them at a nearer place.



me and aunty! but she looks stern in photos with a normal expresion. she's not in real life! she's totally smiley

saw a green guitar at yamaha

after this i went for dinner with aunty @ the Manpuku Japanese Gourmet Town, it consists of all the jap food chain!!! so cool!!!

.....but i forgot to take pic cuz i was so excited -.- they gave u a reserved tag to reserve our table for yourself
(not that it actually mattered, the place was literally empty, no offense) together with a card which they used to memorize all your purchases. at the end, after u bought everything, then you bring the card to the cashier n pay altogether. pretty smart. but me n aunty only had the stomach for 1 dish LOL. we both ate omurice!!! i ate hamburger while she ate chicken one.

substitute pictures from google

a pic outside

a pic f the tofu hamburger omurice

There were a total of 10 different food shops!!!



the logos from the website

sadly it only seems to be at Tampines 1! but the food was good!

After this I went to the library to borrow books, and found out only my card was usable cuz my mom used up the rest ._. still, i found a pretty few good books

My spoils for the day:


a flurry snow-white scarf. i've always wanted to get one of this, cuz its so cute with the cotton like balls


my breakfast for the next week

Ken told me bad news, that C.C Kids dun do custom wigs, only under certain conditions X.x but then his friend is a member of costasia, which can custom for us ^^

With this, Im off to bed. Yawns. Tomorrow either going Isetan @ Orchard or buy Singer sewing machine @ Holland!

good night.

Before @ Tampines
[info]potatoestar
I chatted with bro today in msn (he's in boston) and then he said his friend dropped off the PS2 in a canon box already. I was like O_O then i went to check, then really have!!!


the box sneak peek
Then bro said actually his friend wanted to sell it off, but bro told him give to me ^^ thanks bro fren, you're so generous!

So here's the inside of the box:



The console and the 2 controllers and wires (incidentally, its a phat ps2 *ahemed* )


The games and instruction manual (the games were mostly football lol)


Aunty helping to clean it up (it was pretty dusty :P) I also did extra cleaning up after wards that involved a ruler, a wire pinhead and a cotton stick

Its not white and its not slim and its not new, but its okay. Im am still very happy~
Now I can play my basara and my dawn of mana ps2!!!!!! and kingdom hearts!!! wheee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today I woke up and there was dried blood around the earring >.< But when aunty turned it there wasn't any pain. So I guess its cuz i moved in my sleep and distrubed it T_T i hope it doesn't happen again, its rather scary. i don't want anything bad to happen!

I still don't know whether I should ask for the rockband or blazblue hori arcade stick as my bdae present. bro said choose the more exp one lol! that would be the blazblue hori though :x my mom will complain if she thinks i bought rockband, so if its a present i have an excuse. now you see my dilemma!!

Musing Moments
About studying, i still don't know. I thought i would go for something that has to do with animals, but it doesn't really earn alot of money in compared with the effort it takes...i love animals, i really do. but i also do want to have extra money, for material desires and holidays, and also for my parents. i want to have all those and still have enough spared to set aside for other things. and im not sure that going this path will ensure that. Master khor said that as long as i do the thing i love,money will not be a problem. but i don't know if things are so simple?

i guess what i want is the best of all worlds, but nothing is perfect. i just wish i can find what i want to do.

and alot of people are pretty surprised that i quit the art path, but im pretty sure on it. contrary to what people think, i am not talented. i am not being humble. all the work i did up till now is out of practice and more practice. and i know it well. if i continued like that, i'd just become more sad and frustrated because im not drawing naturally. anybody, or maybe mostbody, can reach what i'm doing now, with the right tutorlage and practice. art only truly speaks to the people who can listen and see. in this, i am deaf and blind. n it makes me sadder then u'd think. but there's no point mulling over it.

End of Musings

Rights, I'm going to tampines later with aunty! To look at sewing machines, shop at the shopping mall, and book at the library!

@Sammie's house
[info]potatoestar
Yesterday bro said bro's fren was gonna come and give the ps2 at night, which is why i stayed home. In the end, he didn't come. Then today he said he MIGHT come today before 2pm, and he didn't come. T_T sadded

So anyway today I went sammie's house to have a rockband session. sab was there too. she play the drums cuz me n sammie cannot handle it XD then sab played on sammie's acoustic guitar n sang abit, she has a really gd voice ^^

sammie with a gloomy bear doing a superman pose on her head

sab behind her drums

Tts all i pretty much did today.
Tomorrow going to go with maid to... somewhere to buy sewing machine. i wonder how good sewing machine i should get?

Ken said we can order the wigs!!!

@Home
[info]potatoestar
Yesterday

I stayed home yesterday to recover from ear piercing, doesn't hurt anymore~ I played dragonica till night, where i packed my room with aunty. My bedroom is so much cleaner now! And emptier too, i threw away a ton of stuff

I packed all my books into two boxes.

oh and also ordered a few nail polish from the blogsite sab has been eyeing for a long time. I got two nail enamels and two nail art colors. Its a black glitter Cosmic and dark purple Merry Midnight, light-blue Azul and white gold Titania respectively. I gave up a Satin White nail art color and Essie 3-way Glaze cuz the cost was too high >.<


cosmic merry midnight azul titania gold

Lots of love for them <3333

I played Okami again at night, i got a better control of it now! I got defeated by Waka though, i really don't like that guy. But i dun like Susano even more!! At least Waka looks nicer!

Today

Somehow, it was reallllyy hard to wake up today. Just kept on rolling around in bed. Literally. My blanket got all tangled up with me inside

Ken said his friend said that the wig colors are ok!!!!
(looking at the shades of color only)

Actually was planning to get sammie and we go out with ken to try his tailor again, but it turns out ken has no time, he has a sheryl nome PS @2pm and he's the flasher! (the photographer)

So now i have a free day ahead of me and i don't know what to do. hmm
m

Piercing my Ears @ clementi

Yesterday
Before going my house me n sammie went to Clementi and she ate sesame oil chicken at the hawker centre.
While waiting for her i bought two nail enamel
light pink n starry clear
After that we took 154 to sunset way and ate daily's ice cream. She ate coffee ice cream with waffle and chocolate fudge. I ate honey vanilla, which tasted wonderful, with brownie n fudge. It costs $5.50, but its worth it! Sammie sure knows all the good food places! But Sunset way feels so ulu~ Like hardly anyone.

Then we took 61 to Holland V where we met up with Aunty to buy lamb steaks at Cold Storage. It was expensive, it costed $15.20 and $12.00 respectively. After that we headed to NTUC to buy celery, big white onions and chicken stock. Aunty bought 3 packets of coffee at $3.30 ea.

We then took 74 back home, where Aunty cooked a delicious western food consisting of sunny eggs, mash potatoes, fried crumb chicken, bacon, sausage, red beans and some crispy lettuce/cabbage. (Sammie and we all forgot she couldn't eat eggs! So it didn't go down too well with her, poor thing ><) Then Sammie loaded Ocean's 12 on tudou.com where we watched it in the dark~

We den went to play Blazblue on PS3 (sammie forgot to bring her ps3 controller!! ahh!) where we took turns. We both lost alot of times to arakune and hakumen ._. Then after getting bored we switched to Okami on WII. It was so hard to control!!!!!!!! Especially the celestial brush and fighting moves. We played until around 1-2am =X Time to sleep! Sammie slept in my bedroom while I slept in mom n dad's bed.

Today

I woke up at around 9.30am, washed up and went to play dragonica :x But i only got to play 1 round of mm F4 at mirinae before I had to help start cooking the Irish Lamb Stew! Yay! I went to fry the lamb steaks in veggie oil, and then fried the onions, putting in butter and flour. I messed up at putting in the chopped celery and carrots though cuz i accidently grazed my arm on the pot, the celery and carrot went flying all over the table!!! ._. after that aunty poured in the chicken stock and put the lamb steak on top. I didn't know what happened after that cuz i went to watch youtube with Sammie :x The stew was served at 1pm!!! Here is the pic:


but this pic looks wilted cuz i only rmbed to take pic halfway through the meal ._. then the stew was half dried and eaten up by then.

It was DELICIOUS!!!!!!!!! Thanks Sammie for introducing such a delicious food ^^

Then she showed me some more videos on youtube, one was ARASHI's Sho chomping on the mike after the machine didn't answer his qn!!! LOL!!! There was also some looney tunes vid. really cute. I also went to play WII Basara Heroes 2, and its in jap, but yay!!! i finally get to play basara!! And it turns out i don't have to sell off my Okami after all,cuz bro-in-law's connections fixed the wii. It still goes on strike sometimes though.

Then comes.. the PIERCING OF EARS!!!! I and sammie showered first b4 going to clementi, since we shldn't get any water on our ears after.
We went to some random gold jewelry shop where an uncle came to attend to us. There was some confused mix up over how many holes we were poking per person but it got cleared up. Here is how it went:

1. First me and sammie were told to choose a basic stud. We both choose a nice blue colour (there was a golden star one which was tempting!)

2. Then the uncle used a marker to mark our ear lobes to see where we wanted the holes. (It made us realize our ears weren't perfectly aligned on our heads o.o)

3. He applied some cold med with a tangy smell on cotton wool to our earlobes.

4. STACPH! (the sound that was made when the staple machine attacked our ears)
(by the way, i was surprised to learn that they put the studs in while piercing,but i suppose that makes sense, originally i thought it was just the hole first, then after the healing we put the studs in. if it was the way i thought, the holes would have just healed and closed itself up, which would have made the entire thing pointless)


TADAA!!!!!!!!!!!!sorry for the absolutely crappy camera quality. courtesy of yours lousy hp truly.

5. uncle applied some cooling med from a bottle that looked like eyedropper.

here you have it, the 5 steps to getting your ears pierced.
of course it hurt, but of course it did. but its normal anyhow. didn't bother me alot, but sammie was shouting blue murder haha!
it costed $6 per ear, but since we did a pair each, it was $10 total. pretty standard.

we left the shop after that, feeling a little hot n sore around the ears, similar to someone slapping/boxing you on the ear. but the pain goes down after an hour or so. We walked around to distract ourselves, and then went to CityVibe (yes, in case you have forgotten, we are still at clementi) where sammie wanted to visit BON Japan, a really nice (but really expensive) shop that sells jap snacks.sammie was tempted to buy a big stitch, but decided not to in the end and bought two boxes of choc biscuits instead. here are the things i bought:

the plastic bag was cute

                              
i really love this kind of biscuits.                                                                                      sweets with fizz on top and normal below


i am very, very fond of these cutecubes choco-chain style chocs.               full length!

It costed a total of $16.91 after discount (which i have no idea where it came from).

We all went home after this. Today was good~

Guess what i found in my letterbox on the way home?



3.....2...........1....................




COOL isnt it??? Me and Sammie's EOY tix arrived!!

Actually pre-event price is $12 while door tix is $15. But booking price is $1, then mailing price is $1, so in the end it costed $13.50 ea, but i guess we saved $1.50 and also on the queuing time.
 
Tomorrow I'm not going anywhere, staying home to pack up my room ^^ Now, im off to play Okami!!!!!!

Tomorrow I am going to have my ears pierced together with Sammie ^^ I hope it doesn't hurt so much >"< Scared!! But i wana do it sooner or later, so i shall do it while aunty is still here.

Joey is acting so funny, following Aunty everywhere! Like don't want to let her out of her sight. Maybe she knows like dog's sixth sense that Aunty is leaving for a long long time T_T so glueing to her now. Even when aunty goes to the storeroom, joey follows and sits on top of the her luggage! and then moves to inside the cupboard after aunty shoos her off. Its so touching and cute!!!

Snowy is screaming her head off cuz im fussing over joey

Went with Aunty to JP for shopping!

first i and aunty dropped off a few library books at jp community library, and i took a picture of her with the xmas tree there in the process.
now you see her...now you don't!

then i went to buy yami yogurt! always craving for it ^^ sadly there was no more peach flavor, so i went for natural. aunty took rambutan with honey dew toppings.

I went to Courts to see the Brothers and Singer sewing machine, but the two saleswomen were so kaypoh and pushy!

The Brothers saleswomen was unhappy when i said i wanted to see Singer and said "Singer got what good?" (im the one buying not you!!!!!) then the Singers saleswomen, while attending to another customer, gave me a poke while i was trying to browse the machines for me to follow her n she intro the machine to me as the other customer was still there,

then across the row the Brothers saleswomen came around from the front and said "i service you first" then i was sawing back and off between this two, honestly, this is incredibly annoying, i couldn't even get a good look at the machines! i didnt come here to look at this 2 women ._.

so i just ran away. i don't care if i seem rude!  i hate being pushed around things i want to look at or buy.

after this i went to John Little to buy cosmetics.



From L to R, lip gloss, eye liner, mascara,liquid foundation, rose beige foundation and lipstick. There was a free toothbrush because the price totaled is above $30. Everything cost a bomb, total was $50+! Make up is an expensive activity ._. Up next is for me to go do ear piercings with sammie! and den, get a manicure set. (base + top coat, cuticle oil, nail enamel, emery board etcetc) i might be getting contact lens soon, too!($$$$$$$ like ~~~~~~~~water flowin from tap)

After that i went to This Fashion and bough a black colored $24 3/4 sleeve knit hoodie with two pouffle drawstring balls and a pouffle ball on the hood. there was another sleeveless knit jacket that had beautiful baroque buttons but cost $36, so i had to let it pass (; ^ ;) (i might consider getting it another time though!) I also saw a very short shorts that can be used for Sammie's Kruche costume! Also there was the white chest bra-thing which can be used for her costume at some shop in JP, which i don't rmb the name.

then i went to eat at an indo restaurant with aunty, the dish was called smashed chicken!!! so funny. it was great though, the chicken was soft and the seasonings very crunchy. the chilli was too hot for me so i left it aside @@ for $6.90, i thought it was quite worth it.


Then i went to Action City to buy 4 pieces of wrapping paper, the drawings were seriously too cute to resist!! (They costed a heft $1.20 ea!)

Walked around abit~ Aunty bough lots of low priced food, it was worth it for the many things she bough totaled only to $25+ . she plans to bring it home to indonesia. there wasn't any coffee though.


to finish this day off with a refreshing cup of apple juice! (...if only there wasn't any aloe vera!)
