Meet up + Reunion Dinner

21 Jan

Met up with my uni clique for dinner on that day. While I was rushing over after my work, a guy approached me and tried to 搭讪-.-. He kept saying he has to know me etc, and pestering me to give him 5 mins to impress me. When I said I was already late, he said just give him 5 mins and he will carry me over -____-. In the end I just kept saying I don't have time and walked off and that's the end of the story. Although it was kinda irritating, I still feel damn Shuang and shiok to be approached even though I'm attached HAHAHA! Ego boost! XD 

We had dinner at Nam Nam Noodle Bar at Wheelock Place. They have quite decent Vietnamese food at affordable price. I tried some stirred fry dry noodle, requested for no spicy, and yet it was so spicy!! But spicy until very shiok that I want to eat, but I can't eat because my mouth was burning and I couldn't take the spiciness anymore. 



After dinner, we chilled at Jones the grocer at Ion. The place looked damn atas, at the top level of Ion. But actually the price is similar to a cafe price. We all had Ice chocolate as recommended by Zhenhao. It was quite good, with one scoop of Choco chips ice cream inside and some other stuff together, for $6.50 only! 

And then as usual it's ootd time! I missed school, the time when we studied together and took ootd shots for each other hahaha. Zh said my dress sense improved!! -scored one for fashion points- Even since I started working in the fashion industry, I did put extra effort to dress up! But I was really happy to hear praises, especially because I used to only wear t shirt and shorts last time! 

My legs looked so slim and long here hehee!

25 Jan 

My family had early reunion dinner + grandpa's birthday dinner!  My uncle made reservation at Long Beach seafood restaurant at East Coast, and we even got a room for ourselves.

 

My family! 

Look at my ah gong! 73 this year and his hair still black like charcoal, and it's not dyed one okay, it's all natural! I think I'm the only one that inherited his super ultra black hair hahaha. 

I look damn fair beside my dad hahah!

Eugene's second time joining our reunion dinner :) 

Ending the post with my super hiao mum who posed like that and ask me take photo of her! She's 48 this year but she dress up she's 21 HAHAHAHA

Day 19 of 2014.

It has been 2 weeks since I started work at Zalora. I have not done anything too in depth into buying, my job scope currently is only data entry and using excel. Hopefully I can get a better experience of fashion buying soon, if not I have to make plans to make my LOA more well spent!

The company culture is very interesting. The average age is 28 and the office itself has over 30 different nationalities. The company has not much of a hierarchy, which I find it very westernize and interesting. I had worked in many companies, but have never seen a company like that. I especially love to observe the people around me, on how they communicate and their work hahahaha, too bored alrd you know!!! 

Food around town is soooooo expensive! And my intern pay is so pathetic (still got deduct CPF leh !@#$%^%^&) that I cooked my own lunch to work almost everyday! My routine everyday is wake up 30 to 45 mins earlier than usual to cook -> wash up, make up and go out -> work work work ->  come home for dinner, rest and slack a while, wash up -> prepare veggie for the next day -> sleep and it's a repeat again. It's more tiring than schooling I feel! Prolly because it's 10 to 7 and Mon to Fri, when school is only few days and definitely shorter!

I MISS SCHOOL I WILL DEFINITELY WORK HARDER FOR NEXT SEM

ON A SIDE NOTE, an update of my life recently!

Sometime I did up when I was bored! 

Wanted to put this in office, but my office and my table is pathetic D:. I think Zalora is expanding too fast but there's no space to fit all the employees already. So I just left this at home instead...

Had to dress up for work on one weekend, and here's me in Nyonya costume! People said I look damn demure and my mum said I look good in it so I'm posting this HAHAHAH! #egoboost 有没有 有没有！

And then a meet up with the Seattle girls (+ 1 guy)! We just talk talk talk, and sometimes I really suspect Jerome is a girl in disguise because he's so 38 and can join in the gossip HAHAA!

And a shopping trip with my dear bff, and here's what I bought! 3 tops, 4 bottoms, 2 necklaces, and a pair of heels for $197 in total!!! I really opportunistic buyer hahahaha! 

One of  the Taiwanese we met in ASES Taiwan Summit came to Singapore, and we decided to show our hospitality and brought them to Chomp Chomp for dinner! Look at the amount of food we ordered! We managed to finish them all O.O!

Wait ah need to zoom out a bit...

SEEE!!!! And that's not all! Steven (we call him Tomato because his chinese name is Fan jie) ordered another 2 plates of cockles and crayfish!!! The table too small to fit all the plates that the uncle beside us let us put our drinks and plates there HAHAAH!

Taiwanese really very friendly! They kept saying everything very nice, and want to pay for all the food! But of course not, although they are guys, we still split by paying some of the dishes! I think they friendliness influenced the hawker uncles too, a few uncles was chatting with Steven and even talked to him when we were leaving!

Okay that's all off to nua again! Weekend is so precious now! 

Falalalala~

Christmas Eve

Spent my Christmas Eve accompanying my boy to his agency's gathering. Headed over to his office early in the morning and joined in their meeting. Awkward me was the only plus one... and the day before he still kept saying "come larh they all bringing their partners one!"... They had their gift exchanges, and then we went to ssikkek for lunch! His boss treated all plus one (and its only me) oh yay! His colleagues were very nice to me and we had a great time dining together! Eugene cooked the meats like zhichar like that, added garlic and onions and stirred fry on the grill -.-.

After lunch, we rushed over to Bugis+ to watch Police Story 2013. I think it's so-so as compared to other Jackie Chan's movie :/. Little action scenes, too much of talking but a few parts were quite touching though. 

After the movie, Eugene and I had no plan so his manager invited us over to his place for mahjong. But before that, we brought us over to his grandparent's place to have Christmas dinner. That was super awkward because we (together with another colleague and his girlfriend) were the only outsiders there! But the dinner was great, first time trying those roasted turkey and Christmas dishes! 

And finally, we went over to his manager's place to play mahjong. His manager drank quite a lot, especially in his house, and he really let loose HAHAHA, even in front of me and the other colleague's girlfriend! It was super hilarious watching him dance and sing, it's as though I am watching Eugene you know! The three of them (Eugene, his manager and his colleague) are so similar in their personality and behaviour that I can see shadows of Eugene in both of them! Even they themselves kept saying that Eugene is like the combination of the two of them! My boy also drank quite a bit, and he was talking a lotttttttt! We cabbed home at around 12 plus midnight, after losing money lol.

Christmas Day 

One fine day, Eugene and I walked past a store in Bugis+ which displayed a set of couple shirts. He said "Let's wear this for Christmas!", and I was like "You sure bo? Cannot regret what you say hor. 说出去的话不可以收回", and then we went in to try, and he paid ._.

And TADA! Our ootd for Christmas! I was super paiseh okay! Totally don't dare look at people when we were walking. But he was very normal, it was not his first time wearing couple clothes -heartbreak :(-. A random uncle on the street came up to us and wished us Merry Christmas, and then asked where we got our top from LOL! We were definitely the most striking one on the street! 

Met up with DBA09 peepz for Christmas lunch! Settled at Delicious Cafe (forth time there...), had our lunch and gift exchanged! It's great to have old friends on this day, catching up and talking about the future :). And look, there's 4 couples in this photo HAHAHA! 

Eileen and Jeremy also one subtle couple clothes hor hehehehhe

His turkey/chicken salad

My "Seriously Delicious CheeseBurger"!

After the lunch, accompanied the boy to cut his hair, he waited for me to do my nails, and then we went for shopping for new year clothes! 

In the evening, we went over to his friend's house for his clique's Christmas gathering! Such a busy day! We had pot luck and everyone prepared some food! Eugene and I woke up early to make wraps, kinda failed at first until my mum came to help HAHA! 

Our wraps turned out good surprisingly! I like the potato salad too! 

Oh wait I almost forgot to mention this! Manveer's house has a dog, and I freaked out when I was at the door! I am very afraid of dogs, and when we reached the place, the dog was so excited to see people that he rushed out of the door and ran around the corridor! I thought it was gonna charge at me at first! 

His name is Winter! Can be quite cute, but too excited already! Kept trying to get close to people and licking everyone!

LOL cannot stand Eugene's cheekiness! 

This is his girlfriend! Everyone was hugging Winter at first. Then he took out his gf and brought it to the middle to grind and fk the bolster! To make things worse, he still lick his private part after that! Everyone then avoided him and don't want him to get closer, nobody wants his first lick! I WILL NEVER GET A MALE DOG! 

And then gift exchange! Noelle got my gift and I got Nabeel's gift!

I was super embarrassed during the drinking game because I made a fool of myself! There was this mini category game and everyone had to say a liquor's brand. I don't know much about liquor because I don't drink often. When it was my turn, I remembered Eugene bought something called "Jim something", and so I asked him "Got Jim Walker or not?" He nodded and said yes, so I said "Jim Walker". The rest of them burst out laughing because it's Jim Beam and Johnny Walker ._.. They still make fun of me because of this till today!!! HAISH WHEN WILL THEY FORGET THIS BIMBO MOMENT! 

Had to cab back with Eugene because he has work the next day! This is my most eventful and busy Christmas (& Eve) heh!
