Sushi

Food is one of my favourite past time. I love eating and love looking for good food. Terrible habit I know but I cannot stop it. At least I do not live just to eat. Hehe... Yea, many of my friends can't stand me cause I eat and eat but do not seem to put on weight. Its not like I want it this way but, its like that. ;-) Ooopppss!

This is one of my favourite places to eat at the moment. I used to like Sakae but their standard seems to be dropping. Only time I visit Sakae these days is the Sentosa branch. Quieter and I can enjoy the sea breeze at the same time. Other than that I seldom go anymore. Ok back to the place I like visiting these days. Its non other than Sushi Tei. Their seafood is fresh and I like their varieties. :-D yum yum.

Look at the Chawanmushi that comes with fish roe.

Yummylicious!!!!!!




























I love Udon too but the ones at Sakae are soft and not nice. I hardly eat it when I am there. But the ones in Sushi Tei are nice and QQ. Hehe.. U know what QQ means? Soft but it has a springy bite to it. (salivating) The Beef Udon is good. A must try if you love Udon.


























Another good dish is this salad. Its refreshingly good. The sharp tangy sauce is a good combination with the salad. Plus the salmon and other seafood is uber fresh. Thumbs up!!


























Their Salmon Belly Soup is also a must try. Those who love salmon will also realise that the best part is the belly. The fat on the belly makes it the best tasting. ;-)


























This is but a few of the good stuff. I didn't take a pic of the Unagi Don. (Unagi means eels) Its fantastic too. I couldn't possibly eat so much in one sitting so next time I will intro more. :-)

The food is great. The branch I visited is the one in Raffles City. It nice and quiet even with so many people. Many cosy nooks and corners are available for privacy. U dun feel like you are sitting among tons of people and feeling uncomfortable about talking. So its good for conversation. I liked the ambiance they set in the place. Go n try it out when free. You will like it too I suspect.

RX-8

WOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am getting a ride in a RX-8!!!! No kidding! "G" has managed it somehow. Can't thank you enough. I buy u chicken wings on that day ok?? Hehe....

Ecstatic!!!!!

Yes, thats my ride! Can't wait.

down

Goodness, the server on blogger hasn't been good since yesterday. Was trying to post up my blog but it couldnt be published till just. Faint!!!

Poor bunny, she has been bullied by "J". He dun like her. But she's so sweet. Why not? Poor baby.

Just came across something new, its called TVU Player. U can watch tv online. Cool! I can even watch CNN news or FOX news.... How cool is tt?

Other than tt, nothing much happening. Will be heading home later after work. Its a better week. At least gives me time to read n such. ;-)

Smooth

I am estatic! Why? Cause "G" says that he can get me a ride in a RX-8. Woot woot!!! (screams long and hard) Yippee!!! I am thrilled. Hehe. According to him, he has a couple of friends who drive them. Boy, am I holding you to ur promise "G"!! You hear me! (smack smack) ;-) Itching to hear the engine.

So happy...... (silly grin on face)

Other than that nothing much to be thrilled about. Its been boring. Not sure why I am feeling bored. Not saying that he is boring but his schedule is pretty much that. Sigh!!! It affects me and yikes, I start to behave weirdly. Like last evening for example, we had plans to go to the Chinese Garden to carry lantern, but in the end, I just didnt feel like it anymore. So we went to Chomp Chomp instead. Heezzz!!! Help!!

There's nothing to do in Singapore too. I mean, there's only so many places to go to at night. Nothing much exciting going on. (roll eyes) We need to go pick up a hobby together cause this is killing me. Its too mundane, everytime we meet, its either to eat, or to eat. So you see how boring it actually gets. Blah blah blah....

Enough complaining today I guess. Its time to feel cheerful, if thats possible. :-(

One last thought. Its not that I dun love him. I do and its quite a fair bit. But I can't help feeling frustrated. Cause I know he is too nice to me. He pampers me quite a lot. Am I nice enough to him? I think I am. But am I really?? "A" wanna feedback??

My dream car

























This is my dream car or so it is at the moment. :-) I love the sleek lines of this car. And yes yes, I am an ardent fan of Initial D Anime.. I mean, look at the car!

I hope to sit in it one day. Hehehe... its jus a beauty. HOT!!!






















SEXY!!! Yah, a car can be sexy too. Its jus way awesome!!!



















I had wanted to take up driving at the beginning of the yr. But I kinda changed my mind abt it after trying my hand in A's car. I got overstressed n I didn't wanna do it after 2 attempts. Perhaps it was jus that he told me to try parking even before I got used to driving the car round which led to me freezing up. Yea. I kept killing the engine till I gave up. So right now, I am waiting for my chauffer to come pick me up. Sigh! Not very content with that but guess I will wait till I change my mind. I wanna drive, tts a definite. The bloody car looks so appealing. Sigh. Yah. I need to change my mind first, then go do it. And then ...... A want to change car or no?? Ahahahahaaa... I know tt won't happen. ;-S He loves his car.

One day, I will do it. Right now, I think I will focus on the current. Take up a few courses needed for the coming biz. Need to get equipped. Hehe. When there is a need and when i have lesser things on my to do list, it will be done. Maybe by then, I will jus go take the auto one. Ok ok, I know, take the easy way out. But I think its easier la. Anyway, I hate Manual cars. Bleah!

To conclude my entry, I had a good weekend. Spent most of my time on saturday resting, and cleaning up my room. Looks way neater now tt most of my stuff are packed in nice Ikea boxes. Sunday saw me resting in His word. Managed to read a lot more, and Study the Word. It feels refreshing. I had a nice hot pot of Rose Tea as well. Nice!!! But does anyone know if drinking rose tea makes you purge???? cause tt happened to me twice. Hmmmm!! Weird. Oh, thanks to the girls, I have my Rose Bud Tea. I loved it and enjoyed it tremendously. I have Lavender Tea in the office too. N yes, I had another big glass of it just now, thats why I purged again. Anyone knows????

My mum said it has slimming effects.. Have meh??? I didn't know. I thought its for relaxing right? I offered her last night and tts wat she said. (Scratch scratch)

Anyways, its almost the end of the day, and I am feeling much better than last week. Not so tired out. Its been good. And yes, the new maid is in. Thank goodness, I dun think I can go on pretending not to see the mess any longer. Hehe...

My dad's been at it again. Screaming at the kids and all. I hate seeing n hearing it. It reminds me too much of how he treated me when i was younger. And it pains me to see the kids suffering the same thing. Cause I know how traumatising it is plus its effects are long lasting.

Some ppl wonder why I am not super confident and super vocal. Its cause of that. I try very hard but its very difficult after all that emotional and psychological pummeling. And I sure dun want them to turn out like me. Sigh. It sucks. I wish he would stop it.

Ok, enough of this. Time to clear up more work n sign out for the day. Tomorrow's another beautiful day to look forward to.

Appreciate each day as if there's no tomorrow!!!!

barricaded

suntec was a dead town when i visited it during the IMF meet. but i was happy to walk the extra distance caused by the barricades cause i got to see the men in uniform at work. tt was exciting for me. ;-D ooppss!!! can't help it. it looked completely different from how it was usually. it kinda looked like ghost town. amazing how efficient we are. ahaahaahaaa.... anyway, as i walked along i took some pics as well to remember how singapore will look if there was a war or we were under some emergency stage.








































the only thing tt softened the grey backdrops were the pretty flowers by the side of the road. it is amazing how much we spent on beautifying the city jus for the visitors. but the flowers were so friendly. friendlier than the 4 million smiles tt were supposed to welcome the visitors. haha. its a laugh. cause i do not really see anyone else smiling or being friendlier than usual. mmmm.... the propaganda didn't work.... after spending all tt effort.











































but i will say tt it was good work. by the policemen who put in so many more hours of work, standing under the hot sun, braving the rain, stupid looks and remarks from silly people. we often hardly see them and how hard they work. we kinda take them for granted. yea. i am guilty of it as well. but seeing how tirelessly they stood everyday making sure that all's safe is amazing. A big thank you to all those who made it possible to maintain the peace and tranquility in Singapore.

i am not saying this cause of A. but i see them on the roads patrolling everyday. standing under the hot sun, and rain. i see them everyday for the past 2 weeks. yah. my office is jus there la. hehe..i actually got a kick seeing them. my fave. uniformed men!!!



























all in all, i think we kept everyone safe during their meetin. it was a little more out of the way, more troublesome but for safety, i think its worth it. dun u think so? take a look round u. at the many countries and how unstable it is now. we are relatively safe n cushioned dun u think? we are lucky for we have a good government. so i say boo to those who are making so much noise abt wanting freedom of speech, democracy n blah blah blah ...

dun u recognise tt we would not be how we are today if not for our government? i say they are doing a good job.

there are loads to commend them for. but its too long winded to go into it. maybe one day i will record down wat i find good abt our government. but remember that they are humans too n they make mistakes. do not fault them for tt. they are not gods. yeps. humans, jus like u n me trying to do their best for the nation. give them credit for tt at least.

okies...tt said, its a busy day today. still have tons to do. ;-)

Remember when

this song touched my heart. i heard it while looking thru one of my online friend's blog. she is going thru a difficult phase now n my heart goes out to her n her husband. please pray for their little family. they have a daughter and things are challenging at the moment. i linked her under Insuperable..... for it means to be unsurmountable. tt she will not allow anything to bring her down. :-)

i fell in love with the song while looking at the video she made. the words touched my heart. it reminded me that life is very fragile. n it is so important to cherish wat u have. ;-)

thank you once again God for letting us learn from each other's experiences. its a good thing.


Remember when, I was young and so were you
And time stood still, and love was all we knew
You were the first, so was I
We made love and then you cried
Remember when

Remember when we vowed the vows and walked the walk
Gave our hearts, made the start, it was hard
We lived and learned, life threw curves
There was joy, there was hurt
Remember when

Remember when old ones died and new were born
And life was changed, disassembled, rearranged
We came together, fell apart
And broke each other's hearts
Remember when

Remember when, the sound of little feet was the music
We danced to week to week
Brought back the love, we found trust
Vowed we'd never give up
Remember when

Remember when thirty seemed old
Now lookin' back, it's just a steppin' stone
To where we are, where we've been
Said we'd do it all again
Remember when

Remember when, we said when we turned gray
When the children grow up and move away
We won't be sad, we'll be glad
For all the life we've had
And we'll remember when
Remember when
Remember when

fatigue

























its been a long long day for me. first of all, i couldnt wake up. hard time trying to fight my fatigue. manage to get into the office by 10plus. embarrassingly late. ran to the post office to send out the audited accounts. sent off namecards. then headed back to the office. it was a hot n long walk over to bras basah. only comforting thing was the men in uniform outside. there were many outside the parliament house today. ;-) n yes, i got to talk to my baby.

mmm...came back, headed out for lunch wit the guys. had an ok lunch. when i came back. hardly warmed my seat when i left for towner. needed to go to the bank n pass some stuff to A. did my urine test too. long overdue. probably nothing to it. jus routine cause of the frequent infection n bleedin i have been getting. ;-) still ok i guess. but i feel tired out. will be heading over to the girl's place after work...

have been thinkin abt quitting. want something tt will be more flexible if not do something more creative. set up my own place to sell some stuff. but first. i need to get down to doing it. lets plan. n start creating the stuff.

i hope my baby will suppor me in this. i have applied for teaching. still waiting. i have not applied for anything else. if it doesnt fall thru..i hope it does... i will jus quit n do parttime.. n tution. n design my stuff. if possible. i want to experiment n see if it is possible.

one last thing before i go. i do not know abt this but if someone comes to u for counselling....wouldn't they expect it to be confidential. they wouldn't want u to be telling other ppl abt their problems yea. n this is wat this person did. i feel its so unprofessional. i didn't comment when that person talked abt it..but i think its stinks. stink big time. ass.

plus the fact tt u have a standing in church. all the more u shouldnt talk abt it. i wouldnt wanna share my thots with this person anymore...cause u never know who they will talk too. tts so scary.

ok. i am going to get back to my work. its a dam long day. i wanna rest my brain but i can't. cross my fingers n hope God will pull thru the teaching job. its my 5th or 6th application. i really wanna teach the little ones...n play a part in their foundation building. but if its not possible, i will see where the road takes me. n i am definitely going to Vietnam in December with the girls. so tts when i will stop work. then part time n tution till watever comes.
