LULL

see michelle i'm dedicating an entire blog post to you!!! thanks for waking up early to meet me for breakfast and laughing over my students' work with me! forgot to tell you to wash your hands after helping me mark the math WBs, cuz they're filthy.

 whether or not we're gonna be in the same hall, i'm just really glad we're so close by each other. we've had our differences but i know we love each other too much to let it ruin our friendship, and i really appreciate all the long convos (free calls to each other!!) and time we spend together doing silly fun things or just lepaking. and how you're always there for me (financially or otherwise HAHA) even though we're an east-west line apart.. but not for long!!! :D

LULL, looking forward to spending entire days with you again in sch.. i can't wait!! :)

things i've been dying to tell you all week!

Term 3 Week 1 was a blast! i mean it literally, as in, it was so packed my brain's all saturated with stuff i wasn't able to pen down cuz i was coming home so late and had to wake up so early. YES i forsook fb for a whole 3 days! HAHA. seems like forever (i know, terrible right) and i'm blabbering now cuz i haven't blogged for that long.

first things first! 

UPDATE: 

tues interview went well! it was this nice caucasian lady interviewer, an assc prof, who was friendly and didn't make me more stupidly nervous than i already was. she asked general guiding qns which weren't annoyingly vague (e.g. tell me about yourself) nor unreasonable (e.g. name the ethical issues surrounding the Human Genome Project). i did prepare for that last question by the way, cuz i was freaking out that much in the car on the way there, caught in that terrible PIE jam caused by 2 accidents. i called poor michelle and she could amazingly tell me some of the ethical stuff we learnt during the bio lectures we slept thru. ANYWAY i should know the results next week, or later.

let's go LAURENT BERNARD'S @ robertson quay! because the chocolate desserts there are to die for, like seriously, i hardly can tell the difference btw good and excellent but these sweet treats are to die for. yes i sound like an over-enthusiastic food critic now but it's awesome seriously let's go when i get my next pay. YUMMMMM.

i went there with my SERVE babes on thurs, we hardly meet up but we always have memorable outings. like has to be awesome food or cool (mostly ulu) location or doing fun stuff. like how we had sashimi @ sagisawa which was as thick as my fingers! also at robertson quay, fyi.

oh and i had udders at the ulu part of bukit timah on wed! siglap one nicer venue but saw new weird flavours at bukit. it was aft yummy simpang-like dinner with cherrie jingyan esther at clementi area. we divulged alot of secrets HAHAHAH. it was awesome catching up with them la:) just that we kinda couldn't find the bus stop which had the buses that would bring us home, so in the end i burnt another hole in my wallet taking cab home:/

OK AND ROYALS CAFE@SIGLAP HAS SURPRISINGLY DELICIOUS CHICKEN SOUP. order the set meal!

today was a fairytale

but finally discovered i should start with the apparently much easier skill

 

6.30pm i look like this

then i went over to punggol to spend time w

 

<3<3<3

finally reached home, then - 

i'm so glad we finally cleared things up!

you made my wonderful, bruised, fruitful day even better:)

quit your job and climb a tree, one with hearts instead of leaves

 

the first home-grown flower from my mum's rose plant!! so pretty

went for sentosa trip with my class on tues. OMG. my legs were like jelly after walking from the drop off point to the outside of universal studios to the merlion to butterfly park to pick up point. here, pictures tell a thousand words (but cannot fully describe my exhaustion)

 

 

 can you see the neat row of children on the left? yea, that's another (well-behaved) class. you see the one fidgeting and posing? that's my class.

tried to take class photo with them, but they are really, really restless. but ironically i'm the one who looks distracted.

finally i decided i'm the one who has to look at the camera, and this boy walks over to complain to me about his friend walking over his bag (or smth)

 

okay time for some close ups of my cute students - check out the cute boys (yes there is a lack of proper eye candy at my workplace, see what i resorted to)

 

 (actually the red cap person is a girl, she just cut her hair)

 

 

<3 <3 <3

they look so much cuter when i'm NOT teaching them in class.

exciting new things!

this is my new top i bought for CNY! so festive right! babe on the left is my all-time camwhore best-y cuz we look good in photos tgt :D

 we went to andre's on 3rd day of CNY for lunch and pictionary and sincerely had a good time:) this is melyssa my ever-changing and mia-ing bff. i think she was going for the katy perry look. only u can carry such scary brows and look cool la mel

 

this is just to show off my grey lenses!!! not bad right. but quite uncomfortable at first. but not obvious unless i keep opening my eyes like that.

 

see when i take picture with my handsome brother you can't tell my eye colour's fake right? haha

anyway i wore it for the first time on sat during the MIMBY event which ryan and LL came for (i think they secretly hate me but they're too nice to admit it)

oh well. sorry ryan there was another pic which u looked better in but i look better in this one! haha
 

 

i'm waiting for the laundry again

evidence that it's late at night:

1. messy hair

 

2. grandma nightgown
 

3. oily face/tired eyes

4. tired enough to let my narcissistic self out - here's to show off my just threaded brows :D

trust me i took enough photos to make my camwhore shi-fu (who else but ACKM) proud...

here's a gem i found thumbing thru the photobooth album:

 

maybe it's true that i look younger in short hair!

you know cuz i'm using my bro's mac, there's a load of pics in his photobooth that are of him fiddling with the app (aka camwhoring which my v man bro will never admit to). this is the handsomest and least incriminating photo i can find: 

 

well done kor!

some colleagues:)
