Day b4 Christmas Eve..


Its the day we have been practicing so long for! we performed along orchard road.. just outside the building between lucky plaza and paragon. our hard work finally paid off and i really hope that the audience got the message behind our dance..




i really love the dance people, jus so fun being with them.. doing silly things like trying to do jump shots in the middle or orchard road.. the performance was great except that you were not there to watch it. its kinda sad.. but the show must go on.. wish u knew what was behind the smiles

Saturday before Christmas


remember the xmas poster with santa zj? the party is finally here!





great job to the party planners, me steph and zj! the party was so fun lets do it again next year!







we bought so much food i think we could have fed the whole neighbourhood!





we had our door long table dining at steph's garden, the breeze was good and so was the food.. we ate so much we could hardly move. it was those American style type where all the food was in the table and we jus pass it around..




and of course we had alcohol! after working at DFS ezann has become some pro bartender.. she makes really good cocktail! awesome! could have been better if our dear eugene ang hadn't screw up the drinks by buying orange juice instead of cranberry juice. he says orange juice is the closest he can get to cranberry juice. and we went like ?!?!?!??!




oh and we had our gift exchange! well, most of us got what we wished for! thanks to zj who did all the coordination work.. and thanks to zj again, some people got really weird stuff like NTUC vouchers!! haha.. sorrie Kok, hahaha.. you helped ur mom save on grocery this xmas.. she should be really happy! hahaha..



yup.. and we played silly games like charades! so FOC.. but we all had fun doing stupid things like " Cheng Fook Jam Making Bubble tea" and " Dr Benny Eating Apple Strudel" haha.. thanks for coming, hope u all had as much fun as i did!

this Christmas have been a bittersweet one for me. went through some rough patches.. but things seem pretty ok now, hope things will stay this way and that we are really ok. i love you dear.. for those who stood by me thru the hard times, thank you for being a good listener and lending me a shoulder to cry on, comforting and cheering me up. you know who u are.. thank you dears really appreciate it. yups.

yups, that's pretty much all for Christmas.. and something interesting but not so Christmas.. i had my first session on the green with eug n cad that day and guess what! i hit a hole-in-one! amazing right.. i got no idea how i manage to do that.. if onli i was playing at some atas country club i could have won 50k! hahaha.. oh wells..

so hope u all enjoyed reading the super long post.. most of the pics of the events are on face book.. dint tag all cus its ALOT! please self tag if i dint k.. loads of love :)

Dance Camp!

EAT DANCE SLEEP




that was all that we did through out dance camp! its crazy how we dance from morning to night 10am to 11pm and stop only to have our meals.. i feel super fit now from all that dancing! well its a good experience to get a taste of many different dance genre( Hip hop, Jazz, Reggae, Zazo, Contempt, modern and other exotic stuff.. even yoga). foot thongs were my best friend.. i would hav survive camp without it.








the sad thing is we are so busy we got no time for photo taking.. so sad.. at least i got a pic of my roomies,tracy and jeanette. they were both from my ballet class and we happen to join ensemble at the same time.. so cool.. its like mini reunion.. we are jus happy to have each other.. all the late night snacks and gossips and cathcing up.. love you girls !

mom me n car

.

what happens when dad is outta town and the car is in the hands of 2 ladies, one who haven driven in 6 years and one who just got her license.. hmmm.. i'll leave it up to your imagination.. hahaha.. dad is going to get heart attack when he comes back.. hahaha..
.

.

Send my dad off at the airport early in the morning last fri. he handed his car to me and left for Philippines.. he was so worried that he had to ask Eugene to acc me when i drive home from the airport. but we all made it home alive k! i am a good driver!

.

the first day with the car was pretty ok, everything went smoothly.. but on the second day it was so scary. i drove without putting down the hand brake.. it was so scary. cus when i hit the expressway and i accelerate the whole car started vibrating violently! i was so freaked out! the car was like go in to fall apart la.. i think i prob spoil the hand brakes.. oops..

.

and then when i reach the car park.. i did the usual parking procedure but i got no idea how the car suddenly locked! it cant start, it cant move! i called the AA emergency number then they says my membership is invalid.. i think they dun want me as a member.. humpf! my mom stop some driver and he manage to solve the prob.. well, i dint put the gear to park when i off the engine tts why it locked.. drivers pls rmb tis!

.

ok, but that is not the end! while i was in church i received an sms.. my mom texted me saying.. "i drove the car home, call me and i'll pick you up" then i was like WTH! you haven driven in 6 years and u just drive hm yourself! crazy.. then she came to pick me up, it was so scary can.. she anyhow one, just dash into e road w/o checking.. thank God i am alive..

.

oh then in the evening my mom drove us to this dinner at Carlton hotel.. she dint dare to go down the slope of the car park.. and she refuse to let me drive.. so in the end we had to ask for valet parking.. i was like speechless.. 9 bucks to park the car?!

.

then after the dinner, she let my neighbour drive us back in the car.. and guess what, my neighbour drank a little too much wine.. then while she was parking she scratched the front of a taxi! there are scratches on my dad car as well! he is going to scream..

.

enough of bad car day.. lets talk abt the dinner.. it was fan-ta-bulous! omg! Wah Lok Restaurant at Carlton hotel.. the food was amazing.. check out what's in the menu..

.

.

the lobsters were so chunky and fresh! Damn nice..

.

.

each one of us had an abalone each to our self!

.

.

this is like the few rare occasion where u can actually fish out the sharks fin in the soup.. its not like those crab meat nonsense they always serve at wedding.. they give the REAL stuff..

.

.

there are alot more impressive dishes.. i was so blown away by the food.. oh and what's the special occasion.. its my neighbour's 70th birthday celebration.. well, all the guest at the table were all around that age.. and they all speak dialect! but the conversation is really interesting.. they practically gossip about everyone in the neighbourhood! its scary how they know what's going on in your family when u dun even know them.. oh my, i think i am going to be like them when i am old!

.

SUNDAY! i encounter a new set of car adventure!

.

my car park drive way at my house is so freaking narrow and u know how fat my dad's car is.. so i thought i could manage but guess what i got STUCK at the corner! it i go forward i hit the front, reverse i hit the side.. i was like SHIT! after like damn long i manage to get outta e mess but with added scratches to the car.. ahahha..

.

and then while i was driving to church.. i think i was dreaming.. i miss the expressway exit! AHH! i ended up in eunos.. then i felt so lost so i jus keep driving.. and the next thing i know i was in HOUGANG! that is so damn far from aljunied and i was uber late! rarr! great thanks to GPS i manage to find my way back.. phew..

.

then in the evening i drove alone to PS..and its my first attempt up the spiral parking thingy.. i made it! so proud of myself.. haha..

.

hey boon pin we ate Paris Brest! see we are such supportive friends.. but u told us it was shape like breast with cheery in the middle.. bluff us! but its still nice.. go try! new product from beard papa..

.

.

Monday-public holiday.. nice simple day with no funny adventures.. thank God.. when shopping at vivo with my bro n mum.. bro bought a shirt frm Ted Baker.. so ex lar! crazy..

.

.
