Monkey Faces

Photobucket
In a rare moment, these two girls were happy on their own, while i was getting ready for the day ahead. they were laughing and giggling throughout, but in my rush, i didnt pay much attention to them.

it's only after i realized that these two little girls took over 140 photos using the photobooth applications

Photobucket
just for your info...we are actually 3 very beautiful girls (okie, they are cute at the very least)

Photobucket
photography is no longer any evidence

Photobucket

First week back in SG

Around 3 weeks back right after I changed my return ticket, I immediately rang up my hairdresser and made an appointment 2 weeks in advance. My hair was so long that the first thing i wanted to do is get it fixed upon stepping on sg soil.

and mab was like, offering to get me breakfast the day after i got back and hang out a little before she starts work. But ya, as usual, some things never change and she overslept.

Photobucket
well, at least we got to hang out a bit and got some photos down

Photobucket
met shaoquan for coffee before my hair appointment.. he actually waited for me through the hour + appointment

Photobucket
my fav chicken rice stall

Photobucket
and ya, me after the haircut.. didn't do much actually.. just cut a little and did a treatment

met up with avis later in the night, and headed down to wala wala for drinks

Photobucket

yeah i had fun...so i got home pretty late...
had a hard time waking up the next day and rushed down to town

Photobucket
meet shumin. we were working together back in perth and manage to catch up with her before she head back for her studies.

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket
charles came over and the 2 of us hung out a little before i headed off back to tampines to meet paul

Photobucket

19th/20th July 2008 (Farewell & Surprise)

Everything took place about a week back. It all started on a bright early saturday morning. After a thunderstorm the day before, I was really glad that the sun is up and glaring as this is the last day i had to do my laundry. And Ian should be really honored to be the first person whom I did laundry for.

Was supposed to pack my stuff but after lunch and all, things got kinda fuzzy and before i knew, bazz & dwijin came knocking at my door and were kinda 'horrified' that i havent get much packing done. So they transformed into 2 fast-efficient packing machines and made me pack before we leave for dinner. stressed i tell u, worse than exams.


Photobucket
Me holding our dinner for the day. They kept telling me that it is the best, and i had to try it out before going back!

Photobucket
the fish & chip's really good.  more fish please.

Photobucket
the usual four of us, after dinner, kinda lazy to move an inch (for me, as usual)

Photobucket
I would give almost anything to be in this position right now. I mean, I wasn't cold but just for the sake hehe. good o' heater

Photobucket
yeah i had to write a list with all the things that have to be pack

Photobucket
the list- things 2 pack in case melis gets drunk (thanks to bazz and dwijin)

Photobucket
with the size of my shot glass, the list is really essential.

Photobucket
and this was only pre-drinks

Photobucket
dwijin's shirt! which really did get him a few kisses later in the night

Photobucket
one from yours truly

Photobucket

Photobucket
alex and gang headed down to say hi as well.
and ya, trying to get me drunk as well


Photobucket
i say, me and xander are pretty bad influence to darryl. he has been drinking a whole lot more when hanging out with us. and beer is growing on him! 

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket
amelia- babe, thanks so much for the card and msg. i'm so glad we got closer over the months and sad at the same time that i have to go back and u, most probably staying over in perth for an extended period of time. i know this is a difficult period for you and even if i;m not physically there, i;m just a ring or text away.

bazz- hey.. well too much to say, not knowing where to begin but u do know the part u played in my life over here @ perth for the past 5 months or so. fridays, baking, drinking (kwak buddy), shopping, heroes(we still have an unfinished game!), burntout.... too many to list but hey, thanks, right from the start till the very last day

dwijin- hahahha....oh boy... ok, i cant do it over here and i missed it SO MUCH. where's the voice recording u promised!?! the countless lifts, fetching me from place to place are really appreciated and your cooking! pork porridge! you seriously converted me into a porridge person. thanks for everything and the card as well. i be there for u as well n u know that ;)

n terence came as well! thanks buddy!!

Back at the guys' place
Photobucket
i wasn't drunk, but i wasnt sober as well. and puking from all the alcohol. the guys sent me back home, let me sleep for an hour, dragged me up and made me finish packing my stuff. they drove to get breakfast as well. and they didnt even sleep a wink the entire night, afraid that if they did, no one will wake up and i will miss my flight. 
Ian woke up shortly (sorry we made so much noise and woke u up) and sent me to the airport
he had to drive all the way back again, cause i forgot my laptop =\
i felt so bad for that

Photobucket
from bazz, dwijin n amelia. that's really very sweet of them

Photobucket
ian & me
thanks for putting me up for 2 weeks and bearing with the noise and mess i kinda brought along with. had much fun drinking and poker/blackjack with you and getting entertained by your never-ending jokes and bad attempts to frighten me



had problems with my luggage and handcarry (overweight) but hey, after several attempts, the guys finally managed to get rid of me

hangover on the plane.
at that moment there, i swore that i will never, touch another drop of alcohol. 
it was pretty bad...
but i made it back safely back to sg
albert picked me up (thanks kor!)
and sent me home

Home
*mum and dad lying on the couch

me: hi mum, hi dad, i'm home

*no response
*angel came running to the door

me: hi angel!!!!!!

dad: eh mum, ur daughter's home
mum (on the phone): don't bluff lar
me: HI MUM!

both sat up. stunned. priceless hahaha
and so predictably, mum started nagging "why didnt u tell us u coming back earlier, i havent wash ur bedsheet, ur room dirty blah blah

-_- sigh its good to be home, i think?

Photobucket
granny was so happy, she wouldn't let go off me. i almost cried :)
