Went out with Jia Hui and Sijia for a movie (LOTR:Return of the King) and dinner but it turned out to be a lunch appointment. We went over to Marche after buying tickets. Marche was recommended by chocoKraft(gaming pal) and hayeon(korean pal). So i feel fairly bit of excitement, love to eat. We had to walk down towards the basement of Heeren to get to Marche. i like the concept of the restaurant of many mini stalls in he form of carts that u can order food from and they charge ur food to a electronic card given at the entrance of Marche. We found a table for 4 with "I'm available" card on the table. I switched it to "Occupied" card when we leave the table to purchase our food. I make many rounds, browsing at the various food. While browsing, happen to see someone familiar, looks like she has appeared on tv b4, the makeover program by channel 8. Or maybe i am wrong. I had to contemplate between sambal stingray,salmon steak,cod fish steak and other steaks....finally chose cod fish steak and dip it with sambal chilli. Fairly tasty but quite a number of bones. Thought of ordering calamari fritty but chose seafood instead. It was not bad. These two cost quite a bit and is quite expensive to dine in this restaurant. But i hope my next trip here is with the company of as many people as possible.

Christmas eve.......i did a "To Do List".......all can be bought around orchard. As i was about to go out, April call me to ask me out. I'm used to going out alone so was surprised she called. Well anyway, i went HSBC to sign some documents...then half ran and half walk to Taka to meet April. Both of us are late. I wanted get some chocolates for Lileng and walk around those branded chocolates...having promotions. I see oso tempted but too expensive too. I went into supermarket to widen my search. Finally after much consideration and April's recommendation, i finally chose Cadbury cute chocolates plus another packet of sweets which i love it too much to part them. So keeping them myself..^.^ Next stop is to go Specialist Centre to buy a box for my Mini car model. Along the way, we discuss about shopping and we pop over to Esprit. Since i like the sweater i mentioned the other day...i decided to buy it anyway!!Weeee!!!!! And when i pay do i know it is discounted by 10%...Double weeeee!!!! Next stop is to Specialist Centre and to PS. I hang a christmas card on a tree for a contest and we decided to catch a movie call Mona Lisa Smile. Since we have an hour to spare before the movie, we went to a This Fashion outlet nearby which has three levels. Its relatively big. We chanced upon a scarf which i like, love scarfs recently but this horridous weather however doesn't permit me to wear, but dun care right now...haha...Den April look at the skirts and psycho me to go try them on and was very reluctant and only relented when its jeans skirt. I was thinking since i wanna dare my 2 poly friends into wearing skirt together so itdoesn't hurt to buy 1 now. So i tried them on and found out and to my horror i realized i lost my stamina and physique since the days of canoeing...sigh.....so yes...bought a jeans skirt....yeah...laugh all u want...whoever knows me will roll onto floor and couldn't stop laughing....but i wun always wear them, dun be too happy fellas. Ah yes...love the Mona Lisa Smile movie, about a teacher (Julia Roberts)who teaches using unconventional methods for history art and make a difference in the lives of the students which really is meaningful and beautiful to me. Its true teachers that shape and mould us into the people we are today besides our parents. However, change takes time and couldn't be implemented immediately but gradually. Now, i am trying to accept change with everything that surrounds me and etc...After the movie, i had fun walking down Orchard Road to snap Christmas lightings and videos using my Leica digi camera! So fun! I'll post some pictures soon...

Today, went out with April today. First attended a youth general meeting in Pasir Panjang held by SSA. It was an eye opener to another religion. After the performance, we headed for Clarke Quey Flee Market. 1 of my fav places. I love to walk around looking at the things people sell and sometimes very exotic and different. At times out of ordinary and u might found yourself attracted to what they sell. April and myself happen to walk pass a stall selling necklaces in the shape of a whale. The material is made up of a skin of a fruit which I couldn't remember and an acceptable price of 2 dollars. The man did these out of a hobby. :) Walking pass another 10 stalls, both of us stop to look at a handphone accessory with feathers and beads. There were three designs and we both share the same liking of the very first design on the left and immediately bought them. ^.^心有灵系....We slowly stroll to the Cannery at the second floor. This is one of my favourite level as one of the shops above sells my favourite cute mini plastic Japanese food in little boxes. U will not know whats inside till u open and have a surprise! I bought my first box 2 months ago and got myself a curry set with a plate of curry rice with a small tumbler, spoon, and glass of water as what u see in jap dramas. Other delicacies are available in this series, like ramen together with goyoza which I like very much, western set, omelette set and etc. Today I bought another food set and unluckily got something which I dunno what it is. But I like the steamboat set, plus other food sets in the series. The other box is sushi series and I got a pretty set of 2 鳗鱼寿司, a plate with nice decor, chopsticks and cup of sauce. They look so pretty and just feel happy looking at them. U must have thought I am crazy but just couldn't help it. Cute stuff are a gal's best friend. Wah, they sell a carton of 10 boxes featuring cakes and food costing $63, look at them and feel very tempted. Next stop, we went to the basement japanese supermarket, just love shopping in there. I can always find different sweets and chocolates not available in NTUC. I always buy and enjoy trying them. Especially love the ramen and udon cup noodles that can go up to as high 3 to 4 dollars. They are much more delicious then the local cup noodles with exception of Nissin brand..heh..April happen to find christmas chocolates in shape of santa claus that are well suited for hampers her mother needs. A trip back to her mom's shop, an unexpected surprise awaits me. Her mum kindly gave me a bear holding white flowers which are cleverly wrapped in paper by herself. This can fetch up to 20 ++ when Valentine's Day comes a knocking.

Back to dancing after 1 week rest, its worst then any other day. Starting it is still ok...then come another set of new steps. The new steps boogles me and the dance teacher abit pek chait with me. And feel really "**ck*" up during the process. But after pointing out the mistakes i make, think i did better. Then came the bending of the legs like ballerinas. Wah...that 1 can die doing. Plus i nv exercise for very long, some more the teacher force me to stretch more, can feel the tug and pain as if i can feel ligaments tearing. Of course nv tear lah....sad...then ordeal over....phew...next come gu zhen class, more favourite. But i'm not very familiar of the strings yet when i look at the scores and play. Hopefully can get my very own gu zhen soon. Yah....over this gu zhen issue, got very pissed and irritated with my dad. I told him what happen if i want to buy a gu zhen. He replied saying do u really think u will play after school reopens and not play with it anymore. Then ur money will be wasted kind of rebuttal. Wah, really pissed with what he said. U mean i cannot continue and learn after school starts meh...i must prove him wrong, but how to prove iask u. Meaning buying 1 gu zhen and playing a good piece do i prove myself worthy of my words! My mom is more encouraging which i find it hard to believe. She is usually harder to convince in terms of buying things other then food. So surprise when she said she will pay half for the gu zhen and she requested me to play a nice piece for her when i am better at playing. Haiz...after the arguement with dad my mom just kept quiet and i just did some origami to get my thoughts distracted.

Haiz...dunno whether eventually have to buy 1 guzhen. 700 plus for a guzhen... as ex as a PS2...i know i know...can't compare like that...but just couldn't help it.

i just came back from watching Infernal Affairs III....such a confusing plot or story, it kept flashing back and fro. I came out thinking about it and I concluded 2 things. Tony Leung's char, Leon Lai's char and man selling arms are moles for the good side. In the end, good triumphs over evil. However 2 of them died. Another one possible is that Andy Lau's char, a mole for the bad side,became crazy and imagine all the stuff.
This vespa's bloody cool!! So are vintage vespas! Oh my god!! I want to take 2b license but my mom's going cow pei cow bu with me if i really go and sign up to learn. Now i need courage!!!! But i have realized i tried out more things this year than any other year like doing braces, going shopping, learning dance and music....etc Some colours which i thought look nice on vespa!

If ur want to see can show ur 1 day. After that i went Suntec walk walk. Happen to pass by Samual and Kevin. I walked in and straight away like a shirt. So nice, i like checked shirts. Later ask got 3 quarter pants and the design so so only. Then they recommend another cargo pants, recently like green cargo. Dunno y. Then went into fitting room and try. Hmm, not bad. Without batting an eyelid, i bought them both. Wah! First time feel so "song fai" (in cantonese), however i'm 80 bucks poorer. Followed by walking into This Fashion. I happen to see 1 striped jacket with a number 6. 6 used to be my register number in school. Look at it for a few minutes and just couldn't bear the urge. I went into fitting room and try,fits like a gem. So i bought it! 11 bucks! Now my next stop is to Marina Square to buy the Mini Cooper model i have been eyeing since last week. Going up the escalator, saw another This Fashion. I eyed another 3 quarter pants, its checked and black! 23 bucks flying. Haiz.......however i just love the purchases i made.

So jia lat! Inner child only 10!
My inner child is ten years old!
The adult world is pretty irrelevant to me. Whether
I'm off on my bicycle (or pony) exploring, lost
in a good book, or giggling with my best
friend, I live in a world apart, one full of
adventure and wonder and other stuff adults
don't understand.
How Old is Your Inner Child?

Today is the historic day towards a beautiful smile! Do i sound like an advertisment?? heh......its easy to guess where i went today....10.15am, still surfing net then 10.16am quickly switched off com and dashed out of the house. Ran across Blair Road and took the first 196 bus! Lucky! I was slightly late for the appointment. I agree my time management isn't that great. i was quickly directed to Dr Yang's consultation room. The nurse ask me which colour i want! i chose blue, fav colour! Dr Yang pull out the separaters and polished my teeth, spurts of water kind of feeling. Later applied glue onto some teeth and stick metal pieces onto my teeth followed by lining the wire to connect all the upper teeth. The upper molars are inserted with more metal to help in the lining of the braces. So far so good, no aches yet. But after the 1 hour ordeal, i went Far East to eat my fav chicken rice. zzzzzzz....even though i know i like to eat but isn't the same now with braces. Due to my lower jaw is longer than my upper jaw, which can easily trap food, Dr Yang make my jaw such that when i bite my lower and upper jaw doesn't meet. So i have to chew using my molars!! Plus my molars do not have that same function as they used to when biting food, means i am eating half biten food and cannot enjoy fulling the flavour anymore. Hiaz....eating time is doubled too. I have to endure for 2 years.......zzzzzzzzzzzzz
