I'm leaving on a jet plane! (for a 20-hour journey)

My Goddess has left! I miss her so much!! Here's her adventure for the day:

After weeks of preparation, I'm finally on my way to the airport. Flight is at 2.40pm but we've to check in 2 hours earlier so we reached the airport at 12.30pm.

The day we set off is the day that the 100ml liquids on board is implemented. As such, to save money, we didn't buy ourselves any drinks, but drink from the different water coolers found around the airport.

Once on board, we were served snacks - peanuts. Unfortunately, it's too hard for my tightened teeth (told my orthodontist I'll be away from 3 months so he tightened like mad for me!), so luckily for me, I brought along left over food from hall.

The packet was inflated like mad due to the pressure difference!

Luckily for us, there was inflight entertainment on the 4-hours plus flight. So I watched "Stomp the Yard".

And bub then was inspired by them and did the look and the dance...

Dinner on flight

Feeling bored on flight, we played with the camera...

And finally, we reached Taipei Airport for our 1st transit which we had to wait for about 4 hours.

We then boarded another China Airlines flight heading for Los Angeles. It was a crazily long flight that took 12 hours. Couldn't really sleep at all. So watched "Happily N'ever After", "Music and Lyrics" and half of "Norbit".

Had our delicious dinner and breakfast, and a view of US

And finally, we reached U.S!!

But that's not all, we have to wait for another 4 hour transit at the L.A. airport to transit to Atlanta.

Bub decided to DOTA during the wait.

After another 4++ hours, we reached Atlanta airport, waited for another 1 hour for our other hour transit to Richmond.

My 1st encounter with Bath and Body Works! So exciting!!!

The newspaper box.

And last but not least, we shared a mini bus with a few other people to the hotel - Quality Inn. By then, it was already 12 midnight in Singapore.

Bub and I were hungry, so we wanted to head out with his roomies and friends to town. We bathed and headed out (Haven't bathed for one day!!) Unfortunately, we almost board the wrong bus and wasted USD 1.75 (SGD3 or so). Then we searched around for food but there were like so ex, at least USD 12 per person. Don't want to waste money, we went to the supermarkter nearby called 'Big Lot' to buy the only type of cup noodles availabe (or should I say bowl noodle). It was quite nice and from 'Nissin' somemore!! We had baked beans and canned sardines to go along, and it was quite a unique meal!

Due to jetlag, we slept for a few hours from 5 to 11pm (US time). And now we are awake, me blogging and bub playing DOTA besides me (thanks to Jiali's clever suggestion to bring an extension plug here).

Alrighty, that's my adventure for today, or two days in fact. Better bathe and get to sleep! It's 1.15am here already!!

US Trip update

I'm now at the Taiwan Taipei airport waiting for my transit. It's going to be a 4 hours wait for a 12-hours flight. Hope I can survive this! Pics will be uploaded later!

All my bags aren't pack, I'm not ready to go...

My Goddess is leaving for U.S. in 11 hours time. I am so going to miss her. She keeps telling me to not forget her. And I know that she is already starting to miss her family - her pa, ma and da jie... Said though she's an adult already, she still feels like a little child - so uncertain of venturing out on her own...

*I'm not a girl
Not yet a woman
All I need is time
A moment that is mine
While I'm in between
I'm not a girl*

Meanwhile, keep a lookout for this spot for she'll give us the latest updates on her trip whenever she has the time and can find free internet connection!

Body Fats

My Goddess went to measure her body fats yesterday. 18.7% of her is filled with fats.

So let's see, a breakdown of it will be:-

15% at her thighs,
3% at her butt,
and 0.7% at her chest.

*Worried*

After exams end tomorrow, I will be unofficially a graduate. This is something not very nice to cheer about.

And it doesn't help when I have only 10 days to pack and prepare for my US trip, not to mention spend time with my family and Winnie. I have been neglecting them ever since day 1 that I stepped into university, and I feel so bad about it! Maybe one day when I'm more free, I will do a recap of my uni life... Maybe the day I wear my convocation gown...

And meanwhile there's so much things to do!!
I've to read up on US! Know nuts about the place that I'm going to stay for 3 months!!!
I've to meet up my friends - Nora, Lover before I go.
I've to have a post-Fyp celebration with my FYP mates! Well we have a sushi lunch and a short shopping spree at JP...
which reminds me I've to meet up my prof to make changes to our FYP report! Done that.
I've to cut my hair - if not I don't think I'll cut it for 3 months.
I've to visit the facial - haven't had my face washed for damn long too!
I've to visit my orthondontist. No more tightening for 3 months. Wonder what will happen to my teeth. Doing that on Monday! The day before I fly off!
I've to pack my things back home!! No more staying in hall!!! My house is still very messy though.
I've to pack and rearrange my room at home before I can bring my things home. If not my room will become a rubbish dump! And this meant get a new cupboard and table! Unfortunately this has to wait till I come back 3 months later!
I've to change my money to US currency and get back my passport (and freddie's too) Ouch my pocket hurts!
I've to buy shoes for the work.
I've to buy more contacts and make a pair of specs.
I've to ask my friends how much clothes and bring and pack them, and ask them for advice :(
I've to set up a skype account. If not I'll miss my family and winnie!!
I've to get 2 webcams so I can converse with my family and Winnie. More holes in the pocket!
I've to exercise and get back in shape! Miss my abbies, biceps, triceps n back muscles. This has to wait till I'm at US (hopefully).
I've to try to settle my AIESEC internship before I fly. Til I go US :(

Ok what else have I missed out?

So many things to do :( Can only take things one at a time. Looking forward to eating dinner with my family this Saturday.. :)

200 Pounds Beauty

I want to watch this show! The lead actress Kim Ah-Joong is so pretty and she can sing so well! Been wanting to post the music video from YouTube but it just doesn't seem to show. So check out the link yourself: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGORaEST6_Y

Isn't she gorgeous?

No Frills me

I'm a no-frills bitch! I don't like to put on any toner, moisturizer and stuffs.


I like the au naturel me!

Maybe I'm not such a bitch after all?

Super Ma and Pa

My ma is a wonder ma. She can handle the cafe work, do all the housework at home from laundry to sweeping and cooking, and take care of all us and all the finances at the same time! She's a cafe employee, maid, accountant, nanny, seamstress, chef and many more!

My pa is also a super pa. He is not afraid of any kind of insects - cockroaches, wasps, lizards, you name it, he catches it! He amazingly knows how to fix and build a lot of things too - lights, tables, TV etc. He's a pest controller, engineerer, gardener, (and atm machine :P) all rolled into one!

I love my super ma and pa!

Happy Mother's and Father's Day in advance!

p/s I know they love me too! I always sleep with them in the room at nights!

Mr Napkinman

Remember Mr. Napkinman from "THE HOLIDAY" - the show starring Cameron Diaz, Jude Law, Kate Winslet and Jude Black? Well, Mr. Napkinman is here in Singapore too!

WE DID IT!! (be warned that this's a super long post)

I LOVE my FYP group! Love you Serene and Jiali! You both have been great teammates and friends! All the nights spent on this FYP - whether it's on SCWO or something else, have been worth it!

For those who don't know what great things we've done, let me share with you...

We started this project in December from scratch - and somewhat disheartened from the hiccups we've met along the way.

It was a meeting with the manager of SCWO (Singapore Council of Women's Organisation) on what they intended to do.

After which, off we go with 3 days of coming out with, carrying out and compiling the survey results. More ideas were thought up of to beef up the plan, and viola~ a presentation to the rest of the committee a week later.

We came up with the logo design and the concept behind the whole campaign...


And the media kit to pitch to sponsors and advertisers...

After which, we came out with the tickets...

And the poster...

And e-banner...


How can I leave out the handy guide... distributed at all Giordano, Amore and Cafe Cartel outlets?

Meanwhile, we held a Photo Contest. Do check them out at http://scwoiwd2007.blogspot.com! There're some really beautiful pictures there!

And so there are the posters and e-banner for the photo contest too...



And there's also the press releases, media invites and media teasers to the media too!

And we were even featured on The New Paper!

Before the carnival date, we also had 2 campus roadshows to promote carnival...

And finally, the main event!

Meet the people behind all these hard work!

And now we're left with the report and presentation. Wish us luck!

Happy New Year Pull Your Ear!!

I know this has been a long over due post!

Well, better late than never. Here are some ramblings on what I did on the first day of Chinese New Year!

Sadly, my Doggie year has gone, and it's now my Goddess' Piggy Year! As usual, my Goddess decked me up prettily in my favourite blue kimono.

When they were about to leave, I begged desperately for her to bring me along.

Finally she relented and yeah! I'm on my way to receive ang pows too!!

But after the first stop, I was already damn shagged. So I slept like a pig on the way to the 2nd house.

Our last stop was to our cafe to get somethings. I'm still very tired!

Happy Valentine's Day

I had an FYP meeting on February 14 and it ended only at 8.30pm!! Luckily Bubu came to meet me at Bugis. However, as it was so late after I went to run some errand (change the crumpler bag I bought for him from brown to green), Magic Wok was closed already. So we walked towards Bugis to find ourselves some place to eat. Luckily for us, there was this hawker place which sells really affordable and nice food. So we got ourselves XO Sliced Fish Noodle, Frog Porridge and Sambal Stingray. The Stingray and porridge is really yummy! Especially the stingray - recommended for those who like spicy food! Didn't really like Fish Noodle though cos I don't like the taste of XO. *bleah*

A giant feast!

I was super full by the end of dinner. So we made our way to Bugis to catch a train back. On our way, we passed by this Goldheart Romance promotion at Bugis Junction. They had a mini garden decorated with lots of big roses. Initially I thought the roses were fake cos they were too big to be real. Bubu even plucked out one for fun. But on putting it back, we realised it's actually real cos of the water in the pot. Then Bubu really plucked out one for me!

See, the rose looked too big to be real huh?

Lancing Queen 2

The reason why the 3 of us were dancing was because of this beautiful and cool Korean star. She dances really well! We love Bae Seul Gi and her BOKGO DANCE!!!

Lancing Queen

I love to dance esp when my Goddess is dancing, I'd like to join in the fun! Here's a short of me lancing!

You are the dancing queen
