Famous Rachel and Christine.
HOHOHO. It's after Christmas and I got a call from Rachel yesterday. She asked if I'm free to go to her house to bake some cookies today. So why not? Since I'm kinda free.
Supposingly we were to meet at around 8am but guess what? Rach called me and told me to meet at 9am+ instead. Yipee! I immediately dozed off again.
9am++ : NTUC shopping with Rach. Got the stuff we need!
10am++: Started work! At first we were like, "Okay so we got all the ingredients. So where do we start?". LOL. But fret not, for Rachel has prepared the recipe. We were un-decisive on how much butter vs dough vs sugar should we put. But I guess in the end, we should have put more butter!
Placed the dough to chill for about 2 hours. Thus, we took this time to go down and grab our lunch! Wan Ton noodles was loved! $2.50 can bring you happiness! Watched a lil of Secret and got back to baking.
Just as we wanted to put in our 1st tray of cookie, the power went *Poop*! AHH! I think we overheated the oven or something. So Rachel called her mom for SOS and I got an insulator ready. Fortunately, the power was back on after a push on the blue button.
Check out our work:
There are the bigger rock cookies too. =D
Now let's see how our 1st "customer" feels about our cookies:
Si Min: Oh my! This is sooooooo yummy! It's even better than Famous Amos. Go for Famous Rachel and Christine!
And I couldn't agree more. Even my sarcastic brothers liked it! (But that was before I told them I made them)
So that kind of wraps up today. Nights!
Rachel: Thank you for inviting me to your house to bake and make a mess of it today! Worth the time huh?Si Min: I totally love the free medicure you gave me! Except some of the nail designs are gone already. -_-''' I want the nail design set too! =D
so come on, tell me.

Back to Kampong.
Alrighty, I'm back from my malaysia kampong trip. Reached Singapore at around 4.30am yesterday.
So if you are wondering how a kampong life is like, I have only 2 words, SLOW PACING.
We sat boat, ate at restaurant for lunch, dinner and lunch again, went to the biggest shopping mall there - The Store. My cousins, aunts and uncle got a hair cut =D I loved the food there! It's so cheap and nice! The servings are big too! I went relative visiting as well. Kinda awkward, 'cause I haven't seen my M'sian relatives before. Oh ya, my mom, aunt and uncle all went to the dentist too! LOL. My mom was inside for 3hours! But I sure hope it was worth it.
That's about all I have to say about Kampong life then. It's christmas eve today so an advance Merry Christmas to everyone!
so come on, tell me.

Lunch at Breeks Cafe
Alrighty! It had been a long time since the few of us (Devi, Rachel, Kashmeena, Helen and I) gathered and have a nice meal together! Sadly, Wan Ting wasn't able to join us.
So we decided to eat at Breeks Cafe, Causeway point.
I ordered the Dory Fish with Creme ($15.90) while the rest ordered th Fish and Chips. The dish took around 10minutes to arrive and I was not very impressed with the colour of the food actually. But nevertheless, I prayed fervently that it would taste good. The Dory fish meat was foruntately very very very tender. So tender I think I hardly required biting. -_-''' It actually came with pasta too! Yipee! So I kind of finished my meal like super fast while my other friends were like trying to finish their Fish and Chips. So while waiting I supposed my tummy got bored and demanded for more enzyme action. In the end, I ordered a Chocolatio ice cream. It cost me a bomb! ($5.20)
Take a look at my ice cream:
-Haven't upload-
Whatever it is, there was a scoopful of whipped cream on top of it (urgh), a vanilla scoop, then chocolate, then dinosaur milo, then vanilla, then chocolate again.
Around 4pm, we left the restaurant. Surprisingly, my stomach felt only half-full! What the?! Must be the Jack place and lots of other junk food that caused this side effects! LOL. Afterwards, I went to Mondo. They were having 20% offer and the sales person was super duper nice! Bought a white short heels.
Okay, I shall have an abrupt ending here. Goanna try to upload more pictures that we have taken!
so come on, tell me.

Slumber Party at May's
Last night, I was out all night at May's, with a pack of 7 other companies!
Yes, my first sleep over I guess. But being the dua pai one, I checked into the "hotel" at around 7pm, just in time for Hong Xing Da Jiang (Star awards 2007)! It was like totally cool man. Show (Luo Zhi Xiang) appeared as special guest! Woo hoo! The 8 of us were like commenting on all the celebs' dressing and stuff (I mean cumon, this is what you WILL get when 8 girls gather together right?). But the show was then interrupted by dinner! Yes, cooked by Pei Ling and Yan Rong's first class cooking skills. Thank you girls so much for being so considerate by not cooking the Bee Hoon with eggs! I was also probably the only one who ate the prawns. -_-'''
Oh! And I love May's 4 inch white heels! Just that I can't really walk with it. Lesigh.
After the Star Awards show, Rachel and I went to wash up. We took more than an hour. But I must explain myself to clear our names ok. The story was, Mr Mah Choon Siong had to call at the wrong time. LOL. We were like discussing training stuff in the TOLIET for an hour and he doesn't know where we are!
Next, Si Min introduced us a Water Drinking game. It's something like you draw a card from a deck and the number on the card would represent the number of cups of water you have to drink. Fortunately, we set the size of 1 cup to be half a cup. But that still didn't salvage me from vomitting. Yeah, probably because I had to drown myself with about 10 FULL cups of water almost consequetively. So ya, *bleagh* and everything came out! Gross!
We ended that game at 1am+ because no one could ta han the taste of water anymore (well except for May who wanted to continue to play so that we can drink finish her water. LOL!) So we just sat down and chit chat.
2am++ knocked out at May's big big bed!
5.30am++ Toliet break with May. LOL. Everyone just suddenly got so urgent!
6am++ Yan Rong refuses to wake up for work! Tsk!
7.30am++ Woke up and made Milo. Many thanks to Yan Ying for being my "tester". Played dai di as my breakfast.
10am++ Alrighty, left for Kash's house!
Arigato May for inviting us to your home. You have been a great host. Just look at how you maintain discipline and volume in your house and your magnificient skill of boiling water and pouring water. Thumbs up!
so come on, tell me.

Gotto get into the X'mas mood!
Alrighty, I've actualy changed my blogskin and song into a Christmas theme one. However, there seemed to be something wrong with the image though, so please hang on, it's really nice!
anyways, Retail Advisors are cool! LOL.
so come on, tell me.

For my first month, I'm going to...
Alright. The PAE results are out and I'm posted to...
PJC!Ok I'm not so sure about the exclaimation mark though, but oh well, I've got 20 points for PRELIMS, so what's there to say...
Also, I heard Fann Chua and Bryden both got into RJC! I'm so embarrassed! LOL. Same primary school and primary 6 class but different fate in the end huh?
And oh! To Kash, sorry ah, you've got to stick with me for 1 more month I guess. So if we get into the same class, it'll make us 6 years and 1 month classmates!
so come on, tell me.

Genting Highland
Genting Highland with Family!
Overall rating: 3.5/5
Pros: Great rides, huge shopping mall.
Cons: SMOKERS are everywhere, good rides are very prone to weather.
Alrighty! This is my very first first first family holiday overseas trip. So since I've been waiting for 16 years for this day I must blog about this trip right?
[Day 1 - 6/12/07]
This is what you will get when the administrative process for checking in takes a long time (many photos i.e.)
^My act cool buay cool brothers and I.
Now ain't my cousins adorable?
After we checked into our suites, my family went to the arcade. The games available there was quite disappointing though. Nothing more or in fact less than what we have in Singapore.
Dinner! International Buffet at Coffee Terrance!
Initially I was super thrilled to see the place so huge and so many many variety of food to choose from. Just check out my 1st plate:
^There's satay, chinese mushroom and sotong, sashimi and chicken cutlet.
However, as soon as I bite my first mouthful, my excitement died off. LOL. The chicken was blardy hard and same goes for the satay! Fortunately, I just had issue with the meat. The sashimi was great! I loved the cream angelic hair too! There were fondue and ice cream for dessert too!
After dinner was probably my favourite activity - SHOPPING! Oh my, the shops there were great. I bought a T-shirt from Padini and a handbag from Girls. Hang around the First World Hotel and then made our way back to our suite. LOL. They were showing Harry Potter that night! Slept after that. ZzZ
[Day 2 - 7/12/07]
Day 2 was really bumpy but I'm glad it got bumpier later the day (you will know what I mean later).
Heaven must not be on my side, I thought. My family woke up only to find that it was still raining. Sigh. That means no outdoor theme park. So after breakfast I went to the ticket counter to buy the indoor family tickets. We thought that it's 75RM for family package but only to find that it's actually a peak period so 95RM. My Dad immediately fished out his wallet and paid for it! I was like so pissed because of his impulsivity. I mean so much for indoor rides is sooooo not worth it I tell you. But since he's already paid for it I can't say Halelujah chance and reverse things. HAI. Unwillingly I took the most stupid carousel rides (which I can't even sit on the horse because I am too heavy), The super ultra slow "Bridge of Love" boat ride, ferris wheel (which we got stuck because of technical problem), Reindeer ride and the super lame and baby train ride. I can't believe we paid 95RM to get tortured.
Lunch was probably my saviour. Pizza hut! The spagetti was nice! Mushroom soup! Excellante!
After lunch the day got bumpier in the good way! WHY? Because the rain has stopped and the sun is out! YAY.
Outdoor theme park here I come!
and so I think I sat ALL the THRILLER rides. Yup, the Space shot (the one that goes vertically upwards), the cork screw (The roller coaster ride that goes around), Cyclone (a smaller roller coaster), the merry go round that you sit on a seat and it spins you as if you are going to fly out, the water slide (which was damn fun. Especially seeing my brother Jonathan's face after he slided down the slide), Mine train (which I sat with my Dad) and not forgetting the all time favourite by all ages - the Flying Dragon! But the first ride that we took was the least succesful and that is the Pirvate house or something. It was suppose to scare (i think) but instead even my 6 year old baby cousin wasn't frightened at all -_-'''
After that I went back pretty late with my Dad. Hehe. My Mom was like going to have heart attack when she found out I was going to ride the Space Shot! LOL. But I'm still alive Mom, don't worry man. So as we were making our way back to the hotel guess what?! I SAW ELVIN NG! MAN! I so wanted to take a photo with him but too bad my camera was with my Mom. -_-''' Lesigh!
After a maggie noodles dinner, we went to sit the bumper car! I saw Jia Yin there with her family!
Slept around 12am. zZz
[Day 3 - 8/12/07]
Woke up and went for bumper car ride again. I didn't sit on it this time but my Dad and Bros did. Did my final shopping and added a pair of sunglasses into my shopping bag (which included a Girls handbag and a Padini Authentics T-shirt). Breakfast was blardy scamming. 15RM for a plate of Wan Ton noodles! And check out my 8RM chee cheong fun:
^What was on the signboard.
^What it actually look like.
HOHOHO. I brought 200g of Famous Amos too! It was 16.90RM. Sheesh! But the smell was too irresistable!
Have to check out and have lunch after that. My aunt treated us to eat at a chinese restaurant. Thank you so much! The bus was delayed as usual for an hour. -_-''' Waited and waited and finally boarded the bus. Reached home at around 11.30pm!
*Home Sweet Home* The end.
so come on, tell me.

Prefects Chalet
Alrighty. I'm back from prefect's chalet. SUPER SHAGGED and I do not know how the rest who are staying for the second night is going to survive?!
I reached Coasta Sands at around 7.20pm after taking the 7.15pm shuttle bus. Miggle around for a while, chit chat here and there. I've got to admit that I'm really hopeless when it comes to BBQ. I cannot start a fire, I cannot roast anything and I cannot ta han the heat! Afterwards, even before we could settle down to eat some food, the Sec3s called us into the chalet. There was a prize presentation! Yay! I got a orange fork with my name in macroni on it! The Secondary 3 bought a cake with the entire prefectiorial board's photo on it! SO DAMN NICE! THANK YOU SOOOOOOO MUCH! Then..............
there was a damn cream fight! YUCKS. The "goody-2-shoes" prefect juniors were like armed with aerosol cans of whipped cream! I totally freaked out and ran out of the chalet like everyone else! I didn't even put on my slippers and just chionged out! But in the end I managed to be 1 of the very few who didn't got whipped creamed or wet by the water bombs! PHEW! I am a survivor!
After that started to eat more and more. Melissa gave me an apple pie! Thank you darling! Aisyah was pretty much tearing a lot. No, she wasn't crying but I think it's the menacing smoke from the BBQ-ing. Shit chat again and poker cards. Later in the night I was playing ASSHOLE dai di with the Sec 4s and 3s. DAMN FUNNY. There was a forfeit for the last person to game. Initially, the forfeit were like drinking weird and disgusting combination drinks, such as the pepper green tea, or peach tea + choco dip+ marshmallow. Then we changed it to cat-walking and stuff. Overall it was damn cool la. Wan Ting, Nathan and I like pa kap so that we would always be the 1st to game first. LOL. I'm so waiting Munkit to come back from chalet and send me the video Stella was fortfeited to do! SEXY DANCE! With Praba and her coach! It was LMAO I tell you!
Went cycling for a while with Yean Jun. We were like so freaked out that there was hardly a soul there! Shortly after we came back the guys decided that they wanted to play murderer! I was like so down on luck can. I became the murderer in the 1st game! Kena suan by the guys because I didn't dare to "kill anyone"! Prabba kept asking me to pick for him a card because for 3 rows straight I picked a picture/Ace card for him. -_-''' In a blink of an eye it was 5am! I decided to turn in and woke up at 7am.
Played pool at around 8.30am. Thank you guys for accomodating me, because I have to leave at 10am for the shuttle bus. Ok and I learned that I really suck at pool. Sheesh!
Came home and slept all the way 'till 7pm!
so come on, tell me.
