Sorry for not updating my blog regularly as i've been rather tied down with other stuff that only till today i finally can take sometime off to update my blog entry about my CNY happenings!:D
May go for a short getaway trip in march, so i may not be in town again.
This year chinese new year were spent with my "work" instead of "family". So to say i chose work over family.. hahah!
Days from 30th jan to 2nd of feb r all rehearsals, rehearsals, rehearsals.. Been spending my time heading down to USS everyday just for full dress rehearsal and filming. Initially, we r supposed to start work by 29th jan but due to the unexpected rain, everything was postponed to further notice.
2nd of feb---Had steamboat for reunion dinner with family!:D
After that, i caught the live telecast of the cny programmes on tv before im off to bed..
3rd of feb-- First day of work at sci fi city!:D
Met up with joanna before we headed down to USS by taking the monorail since its faster:)
Our outfit for the next entire wk:)
Basically our job is just to assist the host-johnathan with getting audiences up on stage to play some simple game. We have to be very bubbly active and pro hyper to attract crowds too..
Theres a total of 3 gig show timing that we r working for... 1st one starts at 1130am and the next one will be at 3pm followed by the last one at 630pm. The most fortunate part was that we only need to work less than 20min and rest for the next 3hrs before the next show start.
Easy job right? But the problem is we got to endure with the burning hot weather everyday that we got tanner too...
The USS performers and ushers are all super friendly and entertaining. We made quite a few friends there such as jakeb, arron and not to forget the girls too..
Good thing to work for first day of cny is that we got double pay and in addition, the food r nicer. It comes with ice cream too=D During our 3 hrs break, we stayed inside the dressing room and just watched movies with the peeps too. I actually dozed off almost everyday. Meaning to say i did catch a wink before the next gig begin:)
Though i didn go visiting this yr, i still got angbaos eventually from my relatives=p
Right after work, i headed home to rest.. Just then my younger sis agnes called me and asked me to meet her tog with ron and vincent to go chill out.
AT Central of Chijmes
me and my sis stayed till only around 2am and headed back home while the rest continue their second round over at neverland.
Second day of cny!5th feb..
Today is my off day. I let simone to take over it. However my day was spoilt by a minor misunderstanding.. Its so saddening that everything began to change after that. Perhaps all along i wasnt that special after all. Perhaps thats karma too for having to get hurt so badly.
Anyway, dave n annabel called me n asked me to go organise a blackjack party. So eventually i posted in my fb as well as to invite some friends of mine over to AMARA hotel for this short party.. Ppl who attended r none other than eugene and friends, sharmian, johnny, emilio and friends, nick and friends, xinyi, etc..including my brother and his friend dominic. There r 20 over friends in the room who attended this party:)
The greetings and making of friends....
Blackjack game start..
Split into 2 groups.. one is called the money game while the other is drinking game:)
Photo-taking session begins!!
All addicted to the tv program of the hk movie
gone case!
supper time!
Drove over to liang court macd for supper before home sweet home!!:D
Sat, sun and monday is just a work and home day!!:D Life is as simple as just going home for a homecook meal and resting as much as i can.
Tues is my girlie's affair night!:D A day where i catch up with my sis and gfs at our usual hangout KPO. Though tonight was just me, agnes and pearlie after our work, our night was still great esp when we met louis and his friends over at the table next to us. We shared chicken wings and also drinks together.. By 11pm, we called it a day.
Wed was a day where i caught movie with joanna and also sean our uss friend. Right after work, me n jo headed over to vivo to meet sean for dinner before the movie began. Had ramen at aoba:)
Its muvee time!:D Caught.. mr n mrs incredible!
In ancient China, superhero Huan (Louis Koo) falls in love with a female superhero called Red (Sandra Ng). They decide to retire and move to a small village for the sake of starting a family. Five years passes and they now live a happy and quiet life until a martial arts competition is being held in the very village they live. They plan to leave the village for good but end up being tangled in a conspiracy to murder the champion. To find out the identity of the mastermind, Huan and Red must don superhero costumes one more time in the name of justice.
reviews: Just when you least expect it, "Mr & Mrs Incredible" hits you right across the face. The premise, slated for release this coming Chinese New Year is surprisingly funny, entertaining and pleasant throughout.
Given that it is a Vincent Kok film, expect limitless nonsense slapsticks thrown in together with some witty lines and quirky personas by Louis Koo and Sandra Ng. The pair has proven to be a perfect match to be in a comedy together. It's like re-watching some of Stephen Chow's earlier 'mo lei tau' comedies starring the late Anita Mui.
This reviewer cringes every time a seemingly 'super effect' is used in a Hong Kong movie but for "Mr & Mrs Incredible", the effects come out right at the perfect moment. It is never too little or being overdone for that matter.
The plot starts out right where it is beautifully executed, but disaster strikes almost towards the end. At times it feels like its being hastily done while more and more nonsense gets thrown in.
And as usual the movie is made to suit the festive mood. It relies heavily on bright colours and happy people to set the movie's mood and theme.
If there is any movie lovers who would want to give this movie a go, do watch it with an open mind - that way this movie will be truly enjoyed just like this reviewer did. Pleasant from the beginning till the end, "Mr & Mrs Incredible" is highly recommended for endless entertaining fun.
After movie, i made my way home to rest for the night and to prepare for work the next day,,,
Last day of work at USS-sci fi city.. Abit reluctant but wat to do.. Response wasnt that good afterall..
Fri-- Worked for gombak mindef camp post cny mess function together with isabelle and valerie. Thats when i know terrence and also jiaming they all. Of cuz, not to forget i bumped into ben they all too who was working inside the air base.

Had macd before home sweet home.
Thurs-- Met up with Mj for a movie at vivo in the evening. We caught "The tourist"
Plot
A remake of the 2005 French film "Anthony Zimmer" starring Sophie Marceau, this Hollywood romance-thriller revolves around Frank (Johnny Depp), an American tourist visiting Italy to mend a broken heart. Elise (Angelina Jolie) is an extraordinary woman who deliberately crosses Frank's path in order to mislead all those who are following her former lover Alexander Pearce, a criminal wanted in 14 countries, who has stolen money from a gangster (Steven Berkoff) and who is being pursued by an agent (Paul Bettany). Against the breathtaking backdrop of Venice, Frank pursues a potential romance but soon finds himself the pursued as he and Elise are caught in a whirlwind of intrigue and danger
Reviews:
The movie is quite alright. The plot is interesting and full of twist and slight suspense. Though they could cut out some of the talking scene which may appear to be dull. Anyways, Johnny Depp never fails to bring color to his character. Amazing.Humorous.
Angelina on the other hand really wows me as well. Glamorous. They could never choose a better place! Venice is really beautiful.Right after movie, its our usual girl's night out!:D Met up with my sis D, magdelene the pretty which i havent seen her for long too ever since nus resumed and not to forget MJ too. What a co-incidence, mag and mj seemed to be able to click so well, perhaps cuz both of them r NUS student.
We had swenson's as our dinner.
Right after dinner, we headed to another shop for dessert:)
Nice chill out with great friends for the entire night:D Home by 1030pm.
Fri-- worked for a cny function at Murai camp with emily, aki and her 2 other friends. Work was very easy and slacking. All we do was eat and chat only. Till about 9pm, we headed home and i remembered that i was supposed to meet annabel at MBK. But ended up i was on the phone with R for almost 2 hrs plus. From our conversation, i gain an insight on what kind of person he is and im glad that i never regret knowing him.
Sat-- Had a girl's night out with jovin, annabel and agnes for shopping around bugis:) Before that, i met up with vincent boy for dinner over at fish and co.
AFter dinner, annabel came over too. I bumped into huirong and also yuting too separately. What a co-incidence. Bugis v was real packed that night. I bet its cuz everyone is tryiing to do their last min CNY shopping which is just next wk. Soon after, Agnes and jovin arrived. By then it was already 930pm going 10pm. R texted and asked if i wanna join them for a drink session but cuz he needed to leave by 1030pm, we didn meet up eventually. Home sweet home after 11pm.
Monday-- met up with GX, a JC friend of mine for movie over at PS. We caught "shaolin" starring andy lau, fan bing bing, jackie chan, nicholas tse
Jackie Chan and Andy Lau star in this movie about the betrayal of former general Hou Jie (Andy Lau) by his second in command Cao Man (Nicholas Tse) which causes his wife (Fan Bing Bing) to desert him. He then seeks refuge in a shaolin temple that he recently looked down upon after beating up a few of the monks in the same monastery. Hou Jie befriends a shaolin cook (Jackie Chan) who picks him up and he finds a way to resolve the existing conflict with the fellow monks. He leads the monks in a fiery stand as they try to end the rule of the warlord Cao Man.
Reviews: i watched it for the plot and cast. This show is all about Karma, which "CAUSE" and "EFFECT" playing heavily within the story plot and good action from the characters.The buddha is within you, the daily task you do, the way you walk, the way you talk.
Touching piece of story. Many people cry in the cinema. Excellent show man ship from Andy Lau.
After movie, we had teppanyaki japanese food before off to chill at my fav kpo.
Arcade time!:D
Next up: KPO chill out session!

Sat-- CNY movie treat with ryan and the clicks:D
Went to pick my younger sis-agnes up from cck before heading over to vivo to meet my sis D and misaki and the rest too.. Caught "the green hornet" starring jay chou tog with everyone else including wenkai and ryan they all. The movie was awesome with cool gadgets being used in the show. The only disadvantage was just that there was no good storyline. Oh ya, did i mention that the cinema was booked by steven, ryan's goddad? so it meant that anyone who rsvp wth them earlier on get to watch that including those walk in's one. Thats when jimmy n his friends was just in time for the movie too when they were also around vivo area:)
Britt Reid (Seth Rogen), son and heir to Los Angeles' largest newspaper fortune, is a rich, spoiled playboy who has been happy to maintain a direction-less existence. When his father James Reid (Tom Wilkinson) dies, Britt meets an impressive and resourceful company employee, Kato (Jay Chou). They realize that they have the resources to do something worthwhile with their lives and finally step out of James Reid's shadow. Kato builds the ultimate weapon, The Black Beauty, an indestructible car with every weapon imaginable and Britt decides that in order to be heroes, they will pose as villains. With the help of Britts new secretary, Lenore Case (Cameron Diaz), they learn that the chief criminal in the city is named Benjamin Chudnofsky (Christoph Waltz). He has united all the gangs under his power, and he quickly sees that the Green Hornet is a direct threat to the prosperous criminal underworld he controls.
reviews: The outcome? i'm not sure if I'm watching a superhero or a comedy movie. Other then funny lines, stunning effects and awesome fighting scenes, nothing else make me jump off my seat in amazement. Oh. And keep a ear for J Chou English. 'Super'.
After movie, we set off to partyworld with ryan, wenkai, vincent and my sisters and gfs:)
We were given the happy hour which cost only 8dollars per pax but that means we only have 1 and a half hr to sing as its till 7pm and we only arrived at 530pm.
After k singing, we set off to amk to play pool. Only me, misaki, wenkai and ryan went. However after a game or two, ryan gotta leave first so me n wenkai continue till my friend jimmy n his buddy came. We then call it a day for the game.
Misaki was feeling rather moody so i suggested going to look for vincent at his workplace which is situated at chijmes. Its a taiwanese club which i havent been to before. The boss is the same as the one at dolly house. This is just a sub club of theirs known as the central. Played dice with jimmy n loser gotta drink.
Thanks for sending both of us back when misaki actually stayed in the east and im at the west. Xie xie Jimmy!:D Got home by 4am and i knocked out fast.
what is truely yours would eventually be yours, and what is not, no matter how hard u try, will nv be. i dont want a guy just because he thinks im fun to be with. I want someone whom can also accept me when im being moody, someone who understands.
Been raining continuously for 2 days and 3nights. finally it has come to a stop. Been rushing for rehearsals and fittings. Hopefully i can kepe myself occupied once work starts and stop thinking of anything that cause me to be so moody. GILLIAN 加油!:D

30/12Thurs-- Had a good catch up with c to celebrate his belated birthday and also to receive my xmas present from him:) Its a canon ixus 130!:D the newest digi cam for now:)
We drove over to demsey for a high tea where champagne r serve too..
heres the great tea buffet snacks i have over at dempsey hill:)
Then by 6pm, he drop me off at lucky plaza where ryan came n meet me to go change the currency for tw. AFter that, we headed over to orchard partyworld to look for wenkai and wei kun. At about 8pm, we had dinner over at wisma before the rest left and only me n ryan went to catch the show we wanted to.
Its entitled:
Meet The Parents: Little Fockers
A sequel to "Meet The Parents" and its sequel "Meet The Fockers", "Little Fockers" will revolve around Greg Focker (Ben Stiller) and Pam Byrnes (Teri Polo) trying to cope with raising their five-year old twins. Robert De Niro and Owen Wilson will reprise their roles in this comedy movie wherein De Niro and Jane Rosenthal are serving as producers.
reviews: I watched the first two "focker" movies, would say this is an entertaining lighthearted movie.
Owen wilson plays his typical role of the all too perfect ex boyfriend. Am surprise that Jessica Alba takes up such a bimbotic sidekick role with a few flesh baring scenes to raise the temperatures of course.
I find the plot pretty predictable though... Ben stiller's parents barbara streisland and dustin hoffman remains the funniest as ben stiller's parents.
Overall, watch if you need some light laughs don't expect anything more.

Right after movie, we had a chill out session over at kpo before home sweet home.
NEw year eve countdown!!
Fri-- It was my most enjoyable night before leaving singapore. Met up with my sis d for a shopping spree over at bugis before we drove down to orchard to meet up with dylan and also agnes, my dearest late darling queen for dinner.
Soon after at around 10pm, we drove down to marina oriental hotel for the countdown party which is organised by ryan. To say that the whole city hall were packed with cars and jammed like hell too. So we parked at marina square and walked over to find them:)
The view was real awesome from the hotel room.
We can see the live performance which was telecast on ch.5 by gurmit singh and michelle chia.
The rest can be explained from photos below:)
Now comes the fireworks!:D
After the fireworks, the guys began to play cards and 5-10:) n not to forget our usual 1-100:)
Stayed till 230am before joseph came n pick us up and sent us all home. I immdeiately head up to pack my luggage together with mummy. Thanks to joseph for sending me n mum to the airport too like in the early morning at 4am.
Met up with dylan at terminal 1 to check in our passport. This is gonna be a surprise trip to mummy as her birthday is just around the corner:) happy birthday in adv to mummy!:D Welcome to Taiwan!:D
Phew, finally I get to update my blog and share my trip to Taiwan not long ago (just returned last Friday) Tell you what, winter is definitely the worst time to visit Taiwan, or maybe Taipei only I don’t know. Its freezing cold and the degree was no more than 8degree celcius. between 5-8 degree:( Gotta wear layers of clothing and thick coats to keep urself warmth.
Thanks to daddy for the sponsors of the air tickets of mummy n I=) We took jetstar asia plane this time round:) To say i took a nap for the entire 4 hours on the plane till it touched down:) Thats the consequences of not sleeping at all the prev night.:(
At 11.50am, we touched down at Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport.. The first thing we do was to go find a rental car with a chaffeur to send us to our respective hotel.
The accommodation we stayed for the first 3 nights in Taipei, was around 7500nt which is equivalent to 300sgd over for 3 nights.
After putting down our luggage, we headed out for yoshinoya before resting in the hotel a while till it was evening, thats when we decided to pay the night market a visit. And of course it gotta be Shihlin Night Market!
Costs only NT$15 by bus. Took a bus ride as we wanna experience the feel of the bus in taipei:) I realised that they paid only after u get off the bus.
First thing that caught our eyes when we entered the night market, a lady selling sticks of candies 糖葫芦 made using huge strawberries. And I mean huge! it was delicious but a bit hard to bite.
Some fruits that you must try in Taiwan are mango, lychee, guava and watermelon. Their watermelons are not round and longer in shape, not as juicy as ours and pack more crunch in the flesh.
起司马铃薯 (Cheese Potato) is a very popular food in the night market as well after being featured in many Taiwan food TV shows. We didn’t try it because the portion looked big and we wanted to save space for other stuff
Although it’s a popular food in Taiwan, Stinky Tofu (臭豆腐) is one thing I couldn’t stand. The taste, the smell, everything about it. Besides being barbecued, you will also find them being cooked in 麻辣 (Ma Lat) style and hot pots.
I think I will never ever be able to like Stinky Tofu. I just couldn’t tolerate the stench it emits.. and it felt like eating garbage while munching it in your mouth. Sorry to those Stinky Tofu lovers out there.
Due to the huge crowd, people are forced to walk near the main road. If you are not careful you might get hit by the incoming cars, scooters and worse still, buses! See the bus number 616 in the background? It was only inches away from the pedestrians.
Besides food, shops selling clothes, either branded or non-branded are widely available at the night market. I noticed that Taiwanese like to shop at night markets more than at shopping malls
Diagonally opposite the Shihlin night market is the old Shihlin Market – a food court like building. Some of Shihlin’s best food can be found here like 豪大大鸡排 (Hao Da Big Chicken Chop) and Oyster Omelettes.
Due to the long queue, i decided to give it a miss.
Shop till around 10pm and we cabbed back to the xingshan hotel.
This is a pouch i bought. very convenient and super nice to use. i can keep everything in diff compartment without any fear tt i cant find any of my items:)
Second day in taipei!!
Today, we got my friend calvin who is staying in taiwan to come n be our tour guide for a day. He drove over to the hotel im staying and picked us up at 2pm.
First stop-- XI MEN DING
had 阿宗面线 (Ah Chung Flour-Rice Noodles) at Xi Men Ding. you have to stand beside the road.
Visitors to Taiwan shouldn’t miss the chance to try inarguably one of the most popular food there, called Oyster Vermicelli(locals call it Oh Ah Mee Suah). This street food is almost synonymous with Taiwan, mention Taiwan and this is probably the first thing that comes to mind, vice versa.
From a food lover’s perspective, if you have visited Taiwan before and did not try a single bowl of Oyster Vermicelli, my oh my your trip had been in vain. It is basically a type of noodle soup with oysters (or substituted with pig’s large intestines) and vermicelli as its main ingredients. The stewed broth is thick, aromatic and always served piping hot.
Shopped around xi men ding too and got myself a pair of jeans, dress and also a top.
Addicted to this:)
Second stop- we headed down to wu fen pu night market where traffic r super congested,
this is what kept me warmth:)
AT wu fen pu<:
Left the place and went for dinner:)
Had steamboat for dinner before calvin sent us home.
Third day in taipei-- our first destination is to longshan temple. Before that we had lunch:)
omelette rice wth chips=D
Before that, we tried to figure out how to get there by taking the mass transit rapid.
Instead of tickets, their MRT station accepts token with the fare programmed into it.
The gates are fitted with a scanner that scans the amount stored in the token, faster and more straightforward compared to using tickets. And when you’re exiting, just insert the token into the slot.
Here we r at the longshan temple!:D
Once you reach LongShan Temple MRT station, there’s a short underground tunnel that you need to go through before reaching the temple. Along the tunnel were some shops offering fortune telling and traditional facial hair removal services.
There are actually five temples in Taiwan named Longshan Temple 龍山寺. It serves as a place of worship for the locals but for me, it’s a place to admire Taiwanese classical architecture.
Offerings by the devotees.
Then after which we went SOGO to just window shop before back to shihlin night market again:)
The fierce bulldog which helped the owner to look after the shop while she was away.
Tues(4th day frpm taipei to taichung-- check out of the hotel before proceeding to the high way rail speed train to taichung.
Saw xing guang san yue too while i went to buy macdonald back when our train will arrived at only 3pm.
Arrived at taichung at bout 515pm where we then check it to holiday inn hotel which is pretty near the train station.
Right after we reached, we put down our luggage and once again rest for a while till it was 730pm. Headed to the nearby yi zhong night market for a walk before back to the hotel to rest.
The view from the window:)
At yi zhong qu:)
5th day in taiwan
Today we spent most of our time just watching tv prog in the hotel before going out to feng jia night market at night.
AT feng jia night market
Everynight, baby ryan sure viber with me without fail:) we usually chat till 230am just anything under the moon kind.. Seemed like we really have endless topic. lol..
6th day in taiwan
Went to yizhong qu to walk around before heading back to the hotel to rest.
wanted to try out this 4d simulator but the queue was kind of long.
Had mos burger at night.
last day in taiwan!:D
check out of the hotel at 1pm where the chaffeur reached at about 130pm. He then sent us to the taipei airport which took a approx timing of 2 and a half hours journey. Halway through it began to rain too.
Got to the airport at 330pm where my checking in time was 5pm. So mum n i headed to their nearest cafe for lunch first. Shopped around for some local delicacies too till about 7pm, its time to go in.
Boarded the train at around 740pm and touched down to sg at around 1am.
My loots!:D
sat-- Met up with baby ryan for a movie which both of us also wanna catch:) Thanks to the present u got for me from hong kong:D simply lovely..

As a young man, Bruce Lee was a rebel who was always engaging in street fights with his buddies, Kong and Unicorn. Invincible as a street fighter, Bruce's romantic escapades are not as smooth and successful. He is head over heels in love with Mandy only to realize his mate Kong shares the same passion. Meanwhile, another girl Monique has a crush on him. Against his father's wishes, Bruce studies the Wing Chun martial arts style instead of Tai-chi and tastes his first "public" triumph by knocking out a Caucasian boxer at a tournament with his kung-fu skills. On the eve of his triumph, he learns that Kong has become a drug addict and decides to rumble the drug lord's den together with Unicorn. This renders him the target of both the triads and corrupted cops who want him in jail. To save his life, Lee's father has no choice but to send him off to San Francisco to pursue his studies. And the rest is history...

wed-- Worked for a new dell phone launch known as "dell streak" with the other 5girls whom worked for the sitex too.
The Dell Streak is a hybrid device that lives in the space between a smartphone and other larger tablets or netbooks that you might be using right now.
The first and foremost thing is its 5” capacitive touch screen. Is it a smartphone or a tablet PC, well I’d say it is definitely a smartphone. The large screen is pretty impressive as I could see from several video demonstrations with pretty good visibility even under sunlight.
Which brings me to another feature of the mobile – Camera. It’s bundled with a 5MP camera, dual LED flash and a VGA secondary camera for video calling. The picture & video quality is good.The nightshots are hopeless though. It supports a number of formats for playback (going by the review of some users, it also support DivX format, though external codecs needs to be installed). It was found to be erring during playback of some full length movies of H264 format, but WMV works just good and clear. But nothing to fret, these are just software issues and Dell guys can fix this easily, I guess.
The phone can be used in both portrait and landscape mode and given the jumbo size, landscape usage seems right. The virtual keyboard has also got a numeric keypad which is the first ever of its kind, but unfortunately it’s not convenient to use. There should have been an option to hide it. As of know there isn’t one.
No FM is there, and the specs are not clear if the hardware is present or not.
A 3G enabled set is bound to have a heavy usage and the effect shows on the battery. But on initial speculations I found the power to be impressive.
Also 2.2 Froyo update is in the air. Flash support is also coming in few weeks.
The CPU is mighty Qualcomm Snapdragon 1GHz, which makes sure that you have a delightful usage of the phone.
Another important feature I would like to mention is the memory. Well this cute gadget has got 512MB Rom, 512MB Ram, a 2GB non-accessible memory for applications installation and a 16GB SD card.
Other features worth mentioning are:
GPS | Yes – with A-GPS support |
Wi-Fi | Yes. 802.11 b/g |
Bluetooth | Yes v2 with A2DP |
JAVA | Yes with MIDP 2.0 |
3G | HSDPA, 7.2 Mbps; HSUPA, 5.76 Mbps |
GPRS/EDGE | Class 12 |
Speakerphone | Yes, 3.5mm audio jack |
And in the end, the exciting part. The screen is made up of Gorilla glass, which is said to be unbreakable and scratch proof. Believe me I saw a video where an engadget engineer tortured the streak screen by banging a pen tip furiously all over and nothing happened to it. Not a single scratch.
The gadget looks promising and is here to stay. I after a long search of 1 year, am feeling like I got a smartphone of my choice. Am waiting for its release in India.

Went out for movie n dinner with edric. My sergeant friend whom i know through my ex 8mths ago. Caught the "unstoppable".
Oscar-winner Denzel Washington and "Star Trek"'s Chris Pine teams with action maestro Tony Scott in this non-stop thriller. A massive unmanned locomotive, nicknamed "The Beast" and loaded with toxic cargo, roars through the countryside, vaporising anything put in front of it. A veteran engineer (Washington) and a young conductor (Pine), aboard another train in the runaway's path, devise an incredible plan to try and stop it - and prevent certain disaster in a heavily populated area.
Reviews: highly recommended..
Thumbs up to Unstoppable.It's a wonderful and awesome movie with good plot and everything.To me,it's 40% Thrilling,60% Drama.In my opinion,i dont find Unstoppable thrilling enough,however the drama and acting skills was simply so great that it had closed up the gap,kudos to the actors,wonderful job your hard work has paid off.
This movie is based on a : Man VS Time,Man VS Speed and more like a "man playing god" theme.Good plot,good acting skills.Totally worth it.

Had dinner at one of the jap restaurant before we proceeded down to butter. Here, i need to thanks those who came down ytd. Really appreciate u guys and girls for helping me each time:) Partied with reei and also sharmian till around 130am where darryl came down n drive me home knowing im a bit tipsy areadi. On the way back, we chat in the car till he lost his way too.. hahha! he's really cute to crap with me sometime. Time spent r real short but nice.
Thurs-- headed down for a casting with sister d for a twin event for zoukout. Lets keep finger crossed first. Met janice for dinner at jp new york new york.
Home after that before kelvin came down n pick me up. We drove down all the way to pasir ris park for supper at a cafe. He then performed a few magic for me which was amazingly incredible:)
After the short supper, we took a stroll around the park where he then tell me alot of things n so on. The feelings was indeed nice. I like it as i seen his effort and the surprises that he's gonna give in times to come.
At bout 130am, he sent me back too.
I find that my life is indeed good as i have great friends around me and ppl who r indeed very nice to me. But when it comes to guys issue, i think im a total loser.. I seemed to always be the one to put in effort n get nth in return. Someone who is so nice to me i dont even appreciate but to go for one whom used me as a bait and listen to only friend's advice.
But somehow i do envy jessica and jun ren too for staying so long together and even two diff country n yet still can be so loving. 4yrs somemore... HOw much time am i left to really wait for someone?
If u were me, will u go for ONe whom loved u more than u do or someone u loved more than he does?
fri-- Headed down to vivo for annabel's birthday dinner celebration. caught fireworks too while having dinner. Nick, cheryl, jackey. me and sister d all turned up for her birthday.
Just then, darryl sent me this picture while he was having his dinner with his family at the hotel to celebrate his birthday.. so cute!!
The japanese food that we had at vivo.. Me n my sis ordered kids meal somemore:) Comes with a bottle of yakult.
After dinner, we drove down to velvet for lawrence's birthday. However didn stay long as it kinda too boring to me aredi. Left at around 130am.
sat- It was annabel birthday again:) Met up with agnes and fang at vivo before we walked over to ph to wait for the rest. Bumped into johnny and his friends, not to forget leslie as well.. And also eunice and irene, leon, jenson and their friends, xiao vincent etc.. kenny they all came down too for annabel's birthday:)
Had supper at clementi area before matthius sent me n agnes home.
Sun-- was at home whole day watching star search till at night, darryl came n pick me up n we drove up to keppel marina.
Marina at Keppel Bay
The bridge from Telok Blangah Road into the marina
Just a stone's throw away from hustling Vivo City was a serene berth for private yachts. Specially designed with yachting and yacht owners in mind, Marina at Keppel Bay aims to help in the growth of Singapore's yachting community in advancing knowledge, enjoyment and participation in yachting and nautical arts. I've had my taste of the high life last year on a private yacht for a dinner celebration. I was on the verge of puking like the Merlion while still trying to look cool with motion-sickness. The high life at sea is not for me.
This is a surprise birthday i gave him. Made simple dessert like japanese jelly and also hand made a bottle of stars using straws till my finger nail broke. I even added many glow in the dark stars and a few seashells i went to pick last time at the beach. Well.. God arent on my side eventually. He liked the surprises but guess its nv enough for him. Maybe both of us belong to the diff world, having diff hobbies etc.. Life is indeed playing a trick on me. Having to let me know someone who seemed so innocent n ended up when i feel that life's treating me good, god took it all back n left me with just disappointment.
Faced with so much problems in rs, i decided just to let go, till it eventually comes back to me one day. That time itself it will be called fate. I learn sth through all experience i had: nv to make someone your priority if u r just an option to him.
Mon-- Met up with darryl again for lunch. We drove down to vivo's mussel's guy.. At around 4pm, it began to rain. We decided to call it a day as he still gotta book in after that. Just then at around 6pm, kelvin came over to my hm n pick me up for dinner. We had chinese cuisine till 8pm before he sent me home n drove back for his coaching.
Tues-- worked for the dell streak launch once again. This time round the vips r all from starhub. Waited from 6pm to 7pm. Event finally started at 7pm. Worked till 9pm where kelvin came n pick me up. He got me the first surprise that i kind of expected too.. Very sweet of him.
First he brought me to keppel marina for dinner where i had only 2 pieces of cakes-one cheese and the other is a rich choco cakes. due to the closing of the kitchen.
Then he brought me down to mount faber park where we had a chat over there before home sweet home...
