The Line




Heard of The Line @ Shangri La Hotel? The seafood buffet which consists of other international food as well? yeah.. i saw it featured on tv n read abt it in the magazines. Therefore, I told fat fat tat i wana go try cos it reali looks gd.


The ambience was gd. The service was good. The food was gd.





Overall experience is gOOd!! so good tat fat fat gave the waitress extra 10 bucks for her gOOd service!!

Din manage to take much pics but nevertheless, still took some pics of wad i ate.. very sad to say, being the usual big eater i m, u may tink i will definitely eat several servings but u r wrong lor.. i din manage to try all the food n i only had 1 serving of some food n i couldn't finish all.. haizz.. im sad..



Cos i wanted to gomble up a few lobsters, crabs n many oysters n prawns!! tHey r my fAvE food..



But too bad, i only manage to have 1 lobster, 2 crab claws, 3 small oysters n 3 prawns.. SAD!! *sobzz*


However, i had a gd experience with prawns today.. be it cold, salad, bbq, fried, i've had them all!! amazing rite? prawns cooked in different styles..



Not onli do they serve seafood, other varieties includes jap, chinese, dim sum, indian, italian.. the food is nice but i stil feel sad tat i din manage to try all the food cos im jus too full!!! no more space to put more stuff in!! *sobz*



fyi, if u go on thurs, u'll oso get to enjoy freeflow of beer, juices, soft drinks.. omg~~ isit it worth it??

the morning walk




On one of my usual walks to work in the morning today, amidst the drizzle, i had a sudden felt for words and tats abt r/s.

i reflected on my previous nite out with my 2 sistas n some other guy frens.. im truly amazed by these few of my frens which i wld reali like to salute to..

how shld i say it.. they r players of the love grd.. they have their own faithful significant other for yrs yet, they oso have the other half which they goes out partying with. u get wad i mean? yes, thats when u rch home n call ur faithful other that u r very tired n gg to slp soon. yet, at the hang up of the phone call, 'zoom' and u're out of the hse to meet the other half.

i've known my sistas for quite some time alrdy n i've only met one of the faithful half a few times which can be counted with 5 fingers but nv have i ever met the other faithful half of my sista..

but, i've met both their other half for countless times.. do u get wad i mean? they have truly, indeed impress me deeply n i dunno if i shld learn from them or be like them?

another player fren of mine, married but available. y r guys these days all like tis? somehow, i suddenly feel tat marriage is no longer another step to build up on your commitment for each other. rather, marriage seems like the graveyard for love.

r we reali living in a society filled with temptations? r we reali no longer be able to face jus tat faithful half of urs till our hair turns white, our teeth starts to drop n able to fart, burp freely without having to feel shy or embarrassed abt it?

on a happier note, im gonna attend a happy event this sunday and that is the wedding dinner of my colleague. it is in fact the first time im gonna attend the wedding of my own friend. in the past, i always tag along with someone else and tat saves me the ang pao money.. heee... but tis time round, im on my own n im indeed in a dilemia of how much to gif..

pertaining to this wedding, somehow, i feel i have aged n moved on to another stage of life. ppl no longer ask me if im attached cos the qns they ask me is if i m married and if i have any kids??!! omg~~ tat certainly reminds me again n again tat given 20, i no longer hv any change.. haizz~~

althou my frens ard me r all older than me n i always get knocked when i say im gettin old.. but recently, i jus have a cx whose wife is born in yr 1987 n tat certainly rings me an alarm askin me to wake up cos i m indeed old.

addin the number of candles on my bday cake each yr is like adding on responsibilties in my life. i can no longer raise out my hand n ask my parents for allowance.

anyway, all this r secondary cos on a even happier note to share with every1, i gt my advanced confirmation!!! wooh hoo!!! im jus 3 mths on the grd aft a 2 mths training n i gt my appraisal fr my boss for confirmation whereas there were some others who were in the bank for more than a yr n they've yet to rcv any news of their confirmation.

im oso the first in my training batch to get confirmed. sometimes, i m quite happy n satisfied with myself. being the youngest in my batch n with only a diploma n no workin experience , i was the first to get confirmation.

confirmation will oso means a promotion + pay increment!!! *blink blink*

oh my.. i feel so blessed.. i thank god for all tat he has given me.. he bless me with a gd job with a gd boss with gd prospects. wad more can i ask for?

not onli m i gettin my confirmation but oso my seniors who join the bank much longer than i do.. i knw im gettin a little out of hand here n may appear as proud n arrogant but i jus cant help it cos if u were in my shoes, u will be equally delighted.

its a long enuff post n i believe i shld end here n get on with my work. aft all, i jus rcv my appraisal n i shld work even harder cos my boss believes in me n i shld nt let him down.

finally another post




seriously, im nt too sure if any1 still reads my blog these days as i've sorta evaporates gradually from blogger.

anyway, talkin abt my life nw, i can say im generally quite satisfied with my life nw thou it can definitely be better.. i thank God for blessing me with a gd job tat pays me well. nt exactly well but generally gd enuff for a 22 yr old poly grad with no workin experience.. but life is meant to aim high.. n im still aiming for my own car b4 my 22nd bday..

b4 i turn 21, i had 3 wishes.. they were made when i was still with ivan.. my first wish was to get my class 3 license follow by graduating n gettin my dip.. last but nt least, to get married n be a MRS..

however, im glad at least i obtained the first 2 wishes but i failed to accomplish my last dream.. tats bcos i broke up with him in a fit of anger which still leaves me in regrets nw.. 3 yrs have past n im still tinkin abt him everyday jus like i did in the past...i gave some1 who loves n care for me so deeply n sincerely away.. i believe im the silliest person ever in the whole entire universe..

haiz.. forget abt the past.. tats wad every1 tells me.. almost all of my frens ard me r attached.. if nt, engaged or married.. sighzzZZ.. except me, single n available.. wads gettin into me?? no1 believes tat im single.. but indeed, i m.

keith once told me on msn 'i tink u need a bf'.

it came to me as a shock as he made this comment all of a sudden n it sure taken me aback.

nevertheless, i cann deny tis tat i myself tink i need a bf too. the best rs i ever had was with my first ever serious bf n needless to say, its ivan. he gave me way too many memories which still sits deeply in my heart.

i guess im exposed to many tings in life, thus makin myself feelin insecure of certain things..

i knw age is catchin up on me.. esp when ppl these days no longer ask me if i m attached anot cos the qns they ask me is whether i m married or do i have any kids at all.. duh~~!!! is tis wad u mean by a quarterlife crisis??

quite a few frens ask me recently wad kinda guy do i actually go for? my immediate response was, 'sm1 with a car'. well, im nt being materialistic but im a car lover. i love cars. im dying to drive my own car but i cann afford the down payment.. sighzz.. so i jus gotta clear my debts asap n save up for the down payment..

other than having a car, my guy mus be honest. it is a MUST cos i hate ppl lyin to me. i wld rather be told the hurtful truth than to find out myself.

besides that, i go ga-ga for guys who looks smart n suave in office wear yet cool in casual wear.. omg~ lOlzz...

he mus oso be hardworkin who have foresight n knows what he wans.. n its oso very important tat he mus earns more than me.. being any other typical gal, i do hope to be a xiao nu ren n be taken care of.. i wana be spared of the worries abt electrical bills, household expenses, etc etc.. i wana be able to work for the sake of workin rather than work for the sake of bringin rice back..

it's reali aint easy to find a gd guy nw.. i believe gd guys still exists jus tat i dun get the chance to meet them..

thus, i gave myself another 3 goals to achieve.. they r my personal goals..

1) to get my car b4 my 22nd bday
2) to be in privilege banking b4 my 24th bday
3) to get married b4 my 25th bday n be a mummy b4 26!!

i tink im a car fanatic.. i love lookin at cars.. n i like the hatchback kinda cars.. ya ya.. i knw im the typical kinda gals who like hatchback but i only like a few.. such as Jazz, swift.. i like fast cars.. actualli i like mazda 3 as well as rav4.. okok.. tink i shall stop here.. shall nt tink too much abt cars cos it'll only tempt me even more to get one..

i shall go surf other websites nw.. haiz.. i wish i have more funds in my cpf so tat i can invest in more funds.. nw i can onli look n nt be able to buy n the price jus keeps gg up!!! wth~

nvm.. life still goes on.. cheerios!!~~
