Gathering on 18 Oct 08

Been meeting up with friends for consecutively two nights... but I love the gatherings, even though I am a listener most of the times *hehe* cos I simply love their company!!

Went to meet up with Shirlene's Secondary School classmates who are also my friends at City Hall earlier... seen them grow up since 8 years ago k? There's Cynthia, Grace and Yoke Yip (other people call her Jade lah, but I want to call her Yoke Yip *hehe*). Karen (our favourite CNN newscaster) can't make it cos of some personal reason and THAT Shiqi needs to celebrate her anniversary with her *honey*~ The last time Shirlene and I met up with Cynthia, Grace and Shiqi was like at least 1.5 years ago... Yoke Yip was even longer... and now she has become such a pretty (and sporty as usual) lady *haha* (erm... ok the rest of the girls also pretty actually *Ah Sze is always fair*)

Anyway, we had dinner at Shokudo (Japanese style Marche) and that was recommended by Yoke Yip. 1st time there for me... not a bad place for makan and gathering~ Here are some photos taken at Shokudo >>>

The "late for 2 hours" Cynthia and her dinner set

The Grown-Up Theresians

The sweet look

The happier look (after some motivations from me *hehe)

Shirlene killing the Green Tea ice-cream

After that we went to Starbucks to continue chatting... I had fun listening to them recalling about their school memories and we can laugh until the tears come out lor~ starting from Grace as usual... Here are some photos taken at Starbucks>>>

The Theresians again

We are the Mao Family (not the China one)

So nice to be hanging out together
(but dunno where Cynthia is looking lor)

After that we went to take more photos at Raffles City (these two nights I've been busy taking photos lor~) >>>

Timer shot which I had re-adjusted the brightness of the pic

Ahem... the thorn among the roses?

Beauties and the Beast

Shirlene the Milk Maid to-be

Trying to be funny with the poor cow
(except for Grace)

Wonder if the cow is happy or sad to see us posing

A decent group photo with the cow

All of us treasure the moments that we share although none of us said it out during the meet-up... it was FATE that brought us all together regardless of where we come from or the difference in age (between me and them of cos)... Thanks for being my FRIENDS~~ you make me HAPPY~~

Gathering at K-Box

It's been a long time since we went to KTV together... too bad Liling can't make it... but thanks to Shufen who organised this gathering to celebrate Baoli and Lishan's birthday... cos I rejected being an organiser *haha bad Ah Sze*

All of us enjoyed the night and we were so busy taking photos with each other that the songs were not sung properly. Wonder if we booked a KTV room to take photos or to sing song actually... Anyway I'm so glad that we are still meeting up often and have been good friends for 16-17 years since Secondary School times (some even longer~ since Primary School lor...) Guess we're the only clique from our class who are meeting so often bah?

I love you all *hehe*

Glad we're still as close

The Result

The long-awaiting application result is out!!

Just got the confirmation from the sole winner earlier on...

Haha... heard from him, only 1 out of 37 got it, and I'm glad that the winner came from my department. Well, Zul is good and I think there's only one last stage before he's offically accepted bah - medical assessment *hehe* that one should pass easily lah~

Anyway, it's a good experience afterall, having the opportunity to talk to No.2 in the hierarchy and other people whom I had never seen before haha...

Next plan in life>>> save money

A Call For Papa

I just received a call at my house from an auntie... and she asked to speak to my father... who had passed away for almost 4 years liao!! I was kinda speechless cos I dunno how she'll react if I said "He die liao leh"... luckily my mum was home and she heard me said my dad's name quite loudly in surprise. So she came to take over the phone and I was laughing away when she told the auntie that my dad had passed away since Dec 2004. The auntie did not believe and still said that she had recently saw my dad and had now wanted to ask him to help her do some painting job cos my dad was a painter. Dun think she would really want my dad to help her do the painting now bah... *haha* scary wor~

Anyway, after my mum had so-called chatted with her over the phone about my dad (though she dun really know who she's talking to *typical anutie*), that unknown auntie was finally convinced that my dad had really passed on *hehe* wonder who else would call and look for my dad again.

Still Waiting...

I am still waiting for the photos taken on Adrian and Baoli's wedding since 10th September 2008 for uploading in my blog... can't wait to share the Big Day with the rest of the world, even though they might not be interested *haha* but at least there are a handful of MY readers wanting to see the beautiful bride and her handsome hubby, who had been smiling the most number of times in his life on that day and night~ cos usually he's camera shy.

Well, good things are worth waiting for mah... so I will continue to wait... and wait... and wait...

Happy Birthday to My Beloved Buddy!!

Happy Birthday to Baoli!!!

Gave her a dinner treat at Waraku Reastaurant - Novena Square 2 to celebrate her birthday earlier at 7pm since I have to work 24hrs later on. If not she can grumble for at least a year for not having the time to celebrate her birthday... As usual, the Fantastic 4 (Baoli, Adrian, Shirlene and I) were there *hehe*

Anyway, Shirlene and I gave Baoli a little surprise during the dinner - 2 slices of cakes bought from "Canele" cafe beside Shaw House, as her birthday cake and asked Waraku staff to keep it until we finished our food.


We sang the birthday song as usual but have to sing it softly cos we're old liao, so can't malu ourselves in public like youngsters do. After that Baoli made her wish (or wishes since she can be quite greedy sometimes *haha*)... just hope her wishes will come true soon~


I am quite proud of my N95 8GB handphone cos I took these photos with it... and also my photography skills not bad cos I press the button at the right timing *hehe*


Buddy ah... Hope you will be happy everyday and may good health stay with you always wor~ *genuine wishes, no guilty feelings involved cos you always dun trust my words leh*
