Day 1 of his field camp

Today is my boy's first day at his field camp. He called me at 5.53am to say "bye!" to me. Ya, bye for 6 days. Sob Sob...I'm gonna miss you man =(

I also prepared a 6 days field camp present for him too. It's in his locker at tekong. hoho! I'll post the picture of it in my next entry.

15 June 2007 *one day before he went ns*


30 June 2007 *first book-out*

I miss you baby..

BUT I CAN DO IT. If my love for him is strong, what is 6 days man? 1 year is not a problem too. haha..

~

hmm...

Today was a traveling day for me. I went to Marymount at 9am for p4 english tuition, followed by Ubi at 11.30am for driving and AMK at 3.45pm for my music lesson. I'm so dead tired. I took a total of 8 trips of bus today. *PENG*

I'm like traveling around Singapore everyday. Weekdays I will go Dover for school. Occasionally I will go Ubi for driving. And 5 out of 7 days I will go to tuition houses (Yio Chu Kang and Marymount).

And yes, I'm a tutor now. Unbelievable right? It is true, believe me. I'm trying my best to teach my p1 girl and p4 boy. I'm responsible for their education and their future. That's the importance of a teacher and a tutor. God bless me!!

Enough of rattling. Time for a rest before I start on my CAs.

12 days

My boy is back in camp.

I'm will not be able to see him for the next 12 days. He will be going for his field camp next Saturday, so no book-out and no phone calls for 6 days. Sob sob.

I hope everything goes smoothly. I can't wait for him to be back with all his field camp stories. I bet he will have a lot to say. Ho ho!! I also hope he won't lose his rifle in there.

It is really not easy maintaining a relationship with an NS guy. He has totally no TIME for you. Whenever he books out, he will want to sleep on his comfortable bed and go into "Lala Land". But I'm quite used to it already. I'll try to be an understanding gf. =)

~PHOTOS YESTERDAY~


Happily waiting for him at Pasir Ris bus stop..

It's my weekend routine. Fetch him from camp every Friday/Saturday and send him to camp every Sunday. Sweet girlfriend right?


At Suntec's Crystal Jade.

We went crystal jade for dinner because I was craving for spicy and sour soup.


But it doesn't taste nice. sob sob


Our Ramen


My favourite Xiao Long Bao


At Fountain of Wealth.

After dinner, we went esplanade followed by boat quay, then home. I'm gonna miss you like crazy!! You are all I want!

BEETLE

I'm simulating Ubi's driving circuit. (got influenced by juan hui)..

I'm imagining parking my car, going through S course...
I'm going crazy. AHHH...

7 Aug 2007 is coming!!! That's the day that decides my fate. LOL. Just kidding. It just determines whether I pass or fail my traffic police driving test.

BLESS ME!!


This Red Beetle covertible will be lao niang's first car

I know I can't afford it now but I'll buy it when I have the money in future. I'll just drive my parent's car after I pass my driving. Why waste money to buy a car when I can't afford the monthly payments. I'm already fortunate enough to have a family car.

Honestly, I'll rather take a cab as a form of transportation, which will only add up to the petrol cost of a car per month (excluding car installments). What a painful reality!

It's not easy maintaining a car. So why bother suffering by buying one at a tender age of 18 or 19, UNLESS you are born on a silver spoon or you are just filthy rich. If paying $500 - $1000++/month is nothing to you, then go ahead and get a car at 18.

People say that you have to get a lousy 1st car so you won't actually damage or cause an accident with a good car. That's not the case for me. I won't want to waste my precious money buying something that is ugly or something I dislike. I'll rather spend my money on something I like and that's my Beetle. I adore it, especially the convertible one.

Convertible is not really practical on Singapore's road but I just love the way it is. Cute and classy. For cars, I go for designs than it's specs. I'm a girl afterall, not a guy. LOL.

Ok. Back to doing my school work. Ta ta!

GENTING PHOTOS FINALLY UPLOADED

My Genting photos are finally uploaded after 3 months. Total 73 photos uploaded and I reuploaded twice because something went wrong. It's all my effort, so do remember to see every photo. Thanks

GENTING & KL TRIP 4D3N
8 - 11 April 2007

a memorable trip for me. =)

~

Day 1 - Singapore to Genting



On our way to Golden Mile. 6am. I look scary I know.



On the tour bus

The tour bus is cool. You can adjust your seat to 180 degree straight. It's better than sitting in my dad's car. This is the first time I took a bus up to Genting. Guess what, I slept all the way till Genting after the first stop-over.


There are games too


My meal at the stop-over. Fish Ball noodles

~

GENTING!!!


First World hotel.


Background view of the flying rollar coaster



The 3 guys who went Genting with me. Terence, Thomas and Guo Bin


Our first meal at Genting. Pizza Hut


Our hotel room that we stayed for 3 nights

~

Some pictures we took...


Me and Thomas


I look extremely short


They look deprived from childhood. haha


Next to the Ferris Wheel


Me


Spongebob balloon

~

Snow City

I persuaded them to go with me. I've never been to snow city before, even the Singapore one. It was -4 degree in there. So cold. There was this slide I took. We had to climb all the way up and sit on the float to slide down. Fun but my butt aches..



The 4 of us


Me and Thomas


Casino. I wanna go in...

~

Day 2 - Genting to KL then back to Genting

We went down to KL because it was raining so we decided to go the themepark the next day. And I tell you, I will never ever take their bus down to Genting anymore. That 45min ride almost killed me ok. I will pay more to take a cab next time.

On their public bus


Is it a pain to take pictures with me? lol


I like this photo


Down down down..
We went to Times Square, the biggest shopping mall in KL. It even has a indoor theme park inside. SO COOL!!


That's me in that huge shopping mall


Thomas


My lunch. KFC


I did medicure for $15. Quite cheap


The indoor theme park


T
erence finally bought his shoe

He had been wandering around the shopping mall to look for a suitable pair. He finally found the one he like. This is another shopping mall that sells relatively cheaper stuffs. They actually bought more stuffs than me. AMAZING!!

Our Dinner


My favourite Kang Kong


Sweet and Sour fish


Tou fu


Beef

The meal was cheap but unfortunately I can't remember the price.


I found Malaysia's Plaza Park Royal


Si chuan dou hua and Brasserie. lol


Shakey hands


I have better hands

~

Day 3 - Genting


Beautiful. I took this in the lobby


Blur picture but I like


My lunch! Wanton mee

~

In the outdoor theme park

We took the 3 most thrilling rides first.

Flying rollar-coaster, Space-shot and Corkscrew


Flying rollar-coaster

Totally not scary at all. Rating 6 / 10. I'm quite disappointed with it but it was still fun.


Me outside pirate ship


Corkscrew, a very old rollar coaster in Genting.


Me and Thomas


The guys


On the corkscrew


Don't we look cool?


I took this when I was in the ride.

Rating 7 / 10. A bit more fun than flying rollar-coaster. But again, not scary. I could even take a photo during the ride. Amazing right. I should have video-clip the whole ride.


Me and Thomas on Space-shot


Can you see me screaming?? Click on it to see..

Space shot is fun! But, don't ask me to take it a second time. Maybe my next trip I will.

~

Boat



Thomas and me


Guo bin and Terence

We were in some boat that you have to use your leg to paddle if that it won't move...It was so tiring but I got Thomas to do it for me. lol. I'm a bully. ~

~

Photos taken outside the theme-park


OHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!


Me


Tiger Thomas. Oh I'm so not afraid of you!


Guo bin and Terence


Cute little vain-pot girl..


Big Hug!!!

~

At night...

On the indoor rollar coaster


Terence and Guo Bin


Me and Thomas

The Ferris Wheel


Terene and Guo Bin


In the Ferris Wheel


Mr. Act Cute


That's me!


Beautiful. I took this in the Ferris wheel. I wanna go Genting again!


Thomas. I miss your long hair


Terence, Guo Bin and Thomas


I seriously don't know I asked them to pose in this manner. lol. They looked funny!


I'm queuing for the bumper car.

We played this bumper car game for so many times. I can't even count it with my two hands. There were this group guys who looked so irritating. One of the guy in their group who looked like their "lao da" because he looked old, around late twenties. That lao da of the group used so much force to bang my cute little bumper car. I never got banged with such strong-impact in my whole life. I'm damn pissed with him. I decided to take revenge and do it back to him. It was fun. I also had 3 guys to protect me since I'm the only girl there. laughs..

~


Day 4 - Genting to Singapore


Say Good-bye to Genting!!


Our bags and stuffs


Genting's Watson.


My last meal in Genting. Curry chicken rice. It taste horrible.

On the bus home. This time the tour bus is not as cool as the one we took to genting. The seats are no longer 180 degree adjustable.


He is eating my pocky!! damn..

Genting may seemed like another boring spot for most people. But it's not the same for me. I really like Genting a lot and I'm gonna miss Genting man! I will take the cable car ride the next time I go Genting. Looking forward to my next trip there. =)

Next destination: Thailand 6 - 11 September 2007
Followed by: Bintan in September too

I love traveling!
