Exceptional surprise! I didn't know Starbucks would serve coffee on the house and not charge a single cent. I've taken samplers given out by Starbucks staff along the streets but this is the first time I got a Venti Latte for FREE!What happened was...I was with my council mates at Starbucks at Cathay, the one at Handy Road near Plaza Singapura for a small discussion...
Lessons will be planned as such that each module will take up 4 and a half days, which means we get a half day on Friday. This is also reflect on the 9 3.5 hours sessions that we do in Singapore.This week, we did Environmental Science. As how the lessons have gone and completed, this module seems like a much cheem-er version of Geography.We got to meet our lecturer, Dr. …

For the past few weeks, I tried to blog... But I seriously am too tired to blog after work... And on weekends, I'm just too lazy, simply lazing around and relaxing.Now that the "feeling" to blog has arrived, I'm buried under the rubble at work because the "campaign-changing" period has arrived. If I'm buried under the rubble, the designers at my printers helping me out are …
1 month and a 1 week shy of my 2 years in remission, I went for my scheduled regular checkup with my radiotherapy oncologist, today. He did an endoscopy for me and all is clear, at least for the primary site!I remembered 3 years ago, this week, I was having my first chemo dose. I remembered trying to keep myself occupied by watching the tv in the clinic but was complaining to …
One BIG HUGE MAJOR advantage of booking the entire package with Disney is this!After the madness, we went back to Fantasyland to fulfil my sis's wish of taking pictures with the Princesses. We queued one and a half hours to take pictures with only 3 of them lor! If we were to take with all the Princesses, I think have to spend one whole day queuing and re-queuing because they …

But instead he played for Burnley in a 3-0 loss to Ipswich! Argh!!!I dare not confirm …
On Saturday, I decided to take a break from everything. So, I went down to Central with the company of the Dearest. I kinda like it there because I can enjoy being a sucker for Japanese stuff without squeezing with the crowd.The mall was having a little food exhibition where customers can walk around, sample and buy mooncakes.Then I saw rabbit mooncakes at Taiwan Lao Zhao …
I made a big boo-boo at work today. Something I feel that it is one of those most serious-than-serious kinda mistake.Though more than 10 hours has past, I can't help feeling guilty, sorry, having that kinda spongy-squishy-sourish-tangled heart with a knife stabbed into it. Boss had harsh words and did not flare up at me, which made me feel even much worse. I really really …
This was spotted at a fast food restaurant in Holland Village which has Wireless@SG avaliable. Wireless@SG is a wireless broadband programme developed by IDA to let Singaporeans have easier access to the Internet outside of home and this is a government initiative. By discouraging use, why do you bother even to offer? Here, the government is pushing to "wire up" the entire …
Seriously, sometimes I don't understand if my mum gets what I'm telling her. A few weeks back, she told me she wanted to do some spring cleaning and I specifically told her not this long weekend.I knew this long weekend would be a good time for me to stone, relax and not do anything because I knew the past 1-2 weeks would be hetic at work. And I was absolutely right! It's the …

I'm SO honoured, proud and excited to announce to you that the Association of Bloggers (Singapore) is born!The first half of my blogging life was just me, myself, and me, so much so that nothing else matters. After I …
On Tuesday morning, we went to a publishing house and TV news station as part of our TV Studio Production module that we were taking for the final week of the on-campus residency. We were not allowed to take our cameras into the publishing house and thus we only took a few shots of the exterior of the building. But at the TV station, it was cam-whoring all over and over...We …
Cathay Pacific CX716 took me and 10 others from Singapore to Hong Kong. Singapore's security check was smooth, with a big sign telling you to separate your laptop and bag containing the li …
In a bid to make myself less porcupine-y, I treated myself to a little retail therapy after work just now.Mango was offering a 20% discount for members, and me being a Mango fan, and blah-blah-cut-long-story-short, I spent $292 in all.Now now, which rational should I use to make my bank account feel better?a) I spent $365 but got a top and a tube free?b) I got $73 in …

I think I really ought to slap myself real hard over and over again so that I can wake up, face the real facts and the truth and move on. No more "what ifs" and "by rights" anymore! But why do I still cry everytime it happens? What's done has been done and there's no way it can be reversed. Time can't be turned back. Why can't I ever learn? Wake up wake up... ARGH!
Dr. K brought us to 2 places on Day 2 of classes that tourists may not even choose to go. Initially I was thinking why I had to go to these places as they are of no interest to me. We went because it was part of our curriculum. So, I ventured into an oil well and a lake.The day started with a lady from OERB (Oklahoma Energy Resource Board) telling us briefly what OERB is all …
What are beauty pageants about? Beauty? Poise? Elegance? Intelligence? I really don't know...

Many past finalists in Miss Hong Kong have now become A-list actresses in Hong Kong and have fans outside of Hong Kong.Here is a picture of all the finalists this …
