Sydney 2007

I'm back! This Sydney getaway during the Easter holidays was indeed rejuvenating. Got to do some sightseeing, some shopping and eat lots of good food! I think this trip was the best among the past few times I've been to Sydney, simply because we've got a personalised tour guide, who was always so patient with us! The only disappointing thing of the trip was the lousy accomodation, its like one of the dirtiest backpackers I've ever stayed in. The only good thing about it was that it was located in the heart of the city. Well, I guess you can't have best of everything. Some pictures to share!

The first day, Bryan (our tour guide) took us on a city tour and the first stop? The fish market! Lotsa fresh seafood, yummy!


I think this is lobster mornay, lobster with lotsa cheese on it...


Grilled salmon... divine...


Bryan and his girlfriend Judy, with all the food that we're going to have! yumm

Next stop, Sydney Darling Harbour!



I love this picture, reminds me of some advert of Rain... no?


The Harbour Bridge!!!

Next stop: Chinatown

Okay, I had to take this picture, I don't think I'll ever take this picture in front of the Adelaide chinatown, haha... I'll die of embarrassment!


The yummiest balls ever! (hurhur)

At night, after dinner, Bryan took us pubbing and also to have a look at the harbour bridge & opera house again, a night view of it... Anyway, I think there's a trend in Sydney, that is ang mohs dating asian girls. Seriously, I saw numerous such couples, and I was proven right when we went pubbing. The moment (I mean literally...) I stepped into the pub, I was hit on by an ang moh. We only stayed in the pub for like 30 mins, and Char & I were hit on like 3 times?! Gosh... Anyway, picture of harbour bridge & opera house at night!





Aint they pwetty???

I'll upload pictures from days 2,3 and 4 later. I'm tired already, heh.

Happy Easter!

Its the long weekend and I'm going to Sydney tomorrow! So exciting!! Heh heh...

Anyway this is a very funny picture I took when I was having my break earlier this week...

The original picture:


The edited one:


Hur hur, yes my very own sense of humour... A man having coffee with his easter bunny... I find it hilarious!

Pictures!

Luckily the 2 gals have savvy cameras and love taking pictures, otherwise I won't have any pictures to upload! Anyway we had a post-grad dinner last week and it was quite fun. The theme was Africa and we actually learnt how to play the "tribal drums", the drumming hurt our hands though.

I remember last year's dinner Eujzin was still around, and his good friend Carvin attended the dinner with the weirdest fashion sense (no offense! it just looked ridiculous to me.. hurhur). Reminiscence of the old times... How time flies... Anyway pictures from THIS year's post-grad dinner, my last post-grad dinner here in Adelaide... sigh...


Us gals, the "legendary" girls from TH7


Us with our area co-ordinator, he's from Canada and is a really nice dude (he's quite cute rite! hurhur)


Me and this guy who used to tutor me... He says he's going to visit Singapore sometime!


Eh, this dude was performing that night. Bernice thinks he looks like Preston Burke... (duh...)


The guy who taught us how to play the drums!

Okay, thats all for now, time to jog!

New skin!

Yes, I've succumbed to the temptation of blog skins. I thought I was one of those who can't be bothered to change skins. I was wrong. Once I started surfing their website, I just couldn't resist the beautiful skins! I used up like 30mb of internet credit just viewing the skins, I think my housemate is going to kill me... Yikes... I shall use the internet at uni to download new skins in future... :P

Oh, and I've added a tag board too. Please tag something, otherwise it looks so bare!

Okay, my eyes are tired from staring at the computer screen for so long. Time to sleep!

White Choco Cheesecake

I've been baking/cooking non-stop eversince I came back here. First was banana cake, then sticky date pudding and then now white chocolate cheesecake! (If I can't make myself slim, just make the people around me fat!! muahahaha... okay kidding... :P)

I went to Shan's house with Zhixian and I sorta taught them how to make it. I taught one how to make the base and the other how to make the cheesy part, so next time they can combine and make one for me... Smart ehhhh....


First, we start off with some raw ingredients... white chocs and oreo biskits!


Break up the biskits for the base...


Add butter to make it stick... yumm


Eh, we're trying to pour the cheese onto the base... In between got alot of steps, too lazy to type them out.


Tadah!!! The cheesecake is almost ready, just gotta chill it until it sets!

Looks really yummy, but one small slice is going to provide alot, alot, alot of energy... Not the best for losing weight! So people like Gao, stay off!

Zhixian and her model pose!


Er... Me & my spastic pose!

Public Health Placement

I guess that's it.. I passed my public health placement. I was surprised to find myself feeling a sad on the last day of work. I really dreaded going to work, but today... it just felt different. I was also kinda sad to leave my supervisor. She really helped me alot, taught me soooo much stuff, and I felt that I learnt sooo much from working with her. Sigh, the ironies of life! I remember saying that I wished I was studying and not working, now its the opposite way around.

Anyway, on a good note, end of placement means that I'll be going home soon! yay! Also, I'll be going Sydney during Easter! Gives me something to look forward to... Hopefully I'll have nice pics to put up when I get back!

Visual DNA?

A friend recently sent this link to a Visual DNA website ,I think its kinda cool. It assess your character using pictures to describe options. Very interesting. Anyway, this is what they said about me.

Personality: Moods: Dreamer

You like life rugged and rough round edges. You take rambling walks in the open air, and appreciate the unpredictability of nature - you've got a steady attitude, people see you as a bit of a rock. When it comes to art, you appreciate natural beauty. You take time to soak up the nature favouring the coastline and countryside to the city galleries. As for music, its the soundtrack to your world. You like to unwind and switch off: it gives you a break from reality. Your choice of treat reveals that simple pleasures make your day, there's nothing quite like a cuppa. Easily pleased.

(Hmmm... 70% accurate? I do like to switch off... and I day dream ALOT... as for the part about coastlines and countrysides, I'm still a city girl at heart!)

Personality: Fun: Thriller

Always the first to take the leap, you never look back - you try not to have regrets. You like to take the plunge: this attitude will give you a wealth of experience. For kicks theres nothing like a little affection to give you a buzz. There is never enough time to love! When it comes to holidays, you like to explore and immerse yourself in another culture. Always on the go, you take in as much as can. You find it hard to switch off, as you like to learn all the time. What grosses you out? You favour the natural look and can't stand a pumped and plumped plastic appearance.

(My take on this... MUAHAHAHA, I take the first leap? The word spontaneous is never in my dictionary. The rest though, sounds pretty ok)

Personality: Habits: Back to basics

You can never get enough attention or affection. A bit of of a one track mind some might say. You like to think you're a devil in the sack, no talk and plenty of action! Your choice of drink reflects your love of the comfort and stability of routine. As for the home, you have a very cool and contemporary taste. You have a simple approach to style, you like things to have their place.

(Woah, I think this is spot on... I dislike change and I do have a reputation of being a neat freak!)

Personality: Love: Love Bug

For you, love is about long term commitment, it means devotion and tenderness. When you think of freedom - you think of stripping off and getting back to nature. You're comfortable with your body and happy to take the first leap.

(Erm, first part accurate ba... the second part... Huhhhhhh....)

Some of the pictures that the website uses. I think some are really artistic.



Have a go at it, I thought its quite entertaining =)

Bird brain

You Are Big Bird

Talented, smart, and friendly... you're also one of the sanest people around.

You are usually feeling: Happy. From riding a unicycle to writing poetry, you have plenty of hobbies to keep you busy.

You are famous for: Being a friend to everyone. Even the grumpiest person gets along with you.

How you life your life: Joyfully. "Super. Duper. Flooper."



Hmmm... apparently not! Seems like I do offend people with my words, and I'm not everyone's friend. Sobs.

Nothing to report!

Sorry for the delayed post. Nothing much to update really... Everyday I just wake up at 645, catch the 730 bus to work, reach my desk at 845, start working on my comp till lunch time, take 45 min lunch break, sometimes go downstairs (main shopping district) for a short stroll, wait for 5pm and rush home. Really, its monotonous, and luckily there's only 2.5 weeks more to go...

Anyway, just posting this so that people will still continue to visit my blog (especially those using RSS), and prevent this page from dying! heh...




Gao wants me to clarify that he went for lasik because KS went for lasik too!!!























Okay, that was a lie =P





















Gao has a mind of his own and he went for lasik because he is vain























Just like us all =P

Infertility

There's a new finding that women who drink low fat dairy products have higher risk of infertility... Haiiii... That's the thing I hate about science, everyday there'll be new information that challenges my beliefs. That's it la, lets all stop studying, afterall, tmr all our knowledge will have passed their use-by date.

This means that if you wanna continue to be fertile, have lots of ice-cream. Good news for gals, but be on the look out for weight gain. Maybe with the extra stone we gain we probably dont wanna have kids anymore.

This picture have nothing to do with infertility, just that I realised that my blog is getting boring without any pictures. I havent been going out taking pictures, so I'll just make do with some old ones. I think this picture is very cool, we're like 3 mafias walking down.


Okay, maybe not, but I'm always in my own world. So... If I say so, then it is!

Paranoid

Recently there's been alot of news about large proportion of women unaware of the dangers of ovarian cancer. Apparently, majority of the women surveyed had no idea that pap smears do not screen for ovarian cancer (they are for cervical cancer only, btw) and many did not know the signs and symptoms of ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer usually occurs in women above the age of 60, but occurs in young women as well (although rarely, they its often the fiercest form of cancer?)

So why do I say I'm feeling paranoid? They've been advertising on the papers & tv about the signs and symptoms of ovarian cancer so much, that I think I actually have a few of them. Some of the symptoms that I can remember off hand include bloatedness, abdominal pain, weight changes, change in bowel/urinary habits... Of the 5 common symptoms, I already have 4. Darn... it doesnt help that these symptoms are soooo common. Damnnnn paranoid now. Plus I remember last year I heard that this asian gal, one year younger than me got ovarian cancer, underwent chemo and lost alot of hair. Worried about my crowning glory as well now. How...

Back again

The past few days had been hell for me. I moved back into my cosy lil' townhouse which was good, but unpacking the boxes and boxes of crap took quite a bit of effort. Everything is finally in place, but my room feels so empty. There were boxes that were left untouched, because in the next few weeks they'll slowly be shipped back to SGP. Having mixed feelings about this, on one hand I'm really glad to be going home real soon, but on the other I'll be missing the days I spend living on my own. I actually kinda like the culture of kids moving out and living on their own when they're grown up, just like the people here. But I guess its not going to work in SGP, where we chinese value different things.

I was watching the news the other day and it said that an eygptian man was jailed for blogging stuff that were insulting a certain religion. I think some people take this blogging stuff too seriously. I don't know about others, but I rant alot on my blog, complaining about things from A to Z, and most of the time, I meant no harm to anyone. But if one day, someone picks certain stuff from out of my blog and sues me for it, I don't know how I'm going to defend myself! Maybe we should all restrain from blogging mean stuff about others, even if its just pure complains.... I don't wanna go to jail!

Hangover

Gosh, its my first night back home and it was LEGEN... (wait for it) DARY!

Yeah rite, I got myself drunk. I really just wanted to stay home & snooze away, but my best friends really wanted my company, so... met them for a couple of drinks =P

We went to this pub place called Highlander, its one of the last places I wanna be actually. Its more like a pub for ang mohs, and since I've been spending my past 3 weeks with ang mohs 24/7, seeing more of them here isnt the most exciting thing. Anyway, as all drunkards would say, "I didnt drink alot wat....." really!! I only had 1.5 glasses of white wine and a snowball. See! not alot!

Anyway, don't know if its because I'm too tired or wat, those 2 drinks just killed me. I puked 1/2 my dinner out on the way home and had one of the worst hangovers of my life. I was pukish the whole morning and had a really bad headache.

BUT... I can't say the night was all bad. For 1, I really enjoyed our brainless small talks at the bar and the silly antics like Lam piggying me until my arm hurts and Gao shoving ice-cream cup down my butt crack and slapping my ass. Hur hur...

Overall, it was a LEGEN...(wait for it.... oh its coming...) DARY night! =)

OD-ed

I've been drowning myself in Prison Break for the past week. Yes, every evening after dinner, I'll watch at least a couple of episodes. (I know I'm catching on a lil' late, but at least I'm catching on!)

And for the past week, I've been suffering from insomnia. I think its all because of the prison break I'm watching. I get my mind all excited just by watching the show. I guess my brain can't switch off even when I'm lying on my bed. So I just toss and turn on my bed for most of the night.

For those who did watch the show, you should be very familiar with the scenes when the "cons" bump into/sees cops nearby. You know, the nervousness that sends shivers down your spine. Anyway, my point is, today as I was driving home from shopping, I saw a police car some distance in front of me with a few cars and traffic was moving kinda slowly. I felt shivers running down my spine! haha... Maybe its not funny to most, but I felt silly being so nervous in seeing policemen. Hee, I'm dumb la. Thats why I think I'm overdosed. Maybe I should just rest for tonight and not watch any. I'll try...

On a good note, I bought my new year clothes today! Very happy. Pretty sure no one will wear the same clothes as me. I hope!

Tmr is Friday!

Yay, its Thursday. Tmr is Friday... 8 more hours of work and I can have 2 days of rest. Yay... And next week I only have to work for 2.5 days... more yays!

The only thing that will evoke a boo from me is the weather, yes I'm complaining about the weather again. The cool autumn like days are going to be over soon. Tmr onwards its going to be 30 degrees and above. So hopefully it doesnt hit 38 before I leave!

Work has been alright so far. I think I'm a true blue workaholic. No work/nothing to do and I'll be feeling blue. Like today, I could have pretended to be busy and spend 1/2 the day staring at my computer screen. But no, I looked for my supervisor and told her that I've completed most of the work that she's given me. So I got myself landed in another mini project. And I'm actually feeling good about it. Its been a fulfilling day. Did alot of self learning today, and starting to appreciate the workings of public health. I think I might branch into the public health sector one day. Hur hur, considering how much I used to dislike public health, this is a 180 degrees change for me. Okay, I know I'm getting alot of eye rolling from people like Gao, Lam and ah hu... So I shall shuddup, at least I know when to stop talking! hur hur... (private joke between ah hu & I =P)

Time for more prison break. I have to say this. Wentworth Miller is damnnn cute lah!

Tuesday, February 06, 2007

End of the world?

Oh no... I think the world is going to crash and burn soon. I think we should all follow what ah hu said in her blog, quit work, quit school and just spend your time travelling the world and visit the 7 wonders of the world. Like seriously... look at whats been going on in the world

1. Singapore/M'sia/Jakarta experiencing the worst floods in centuries
2. Australia experiencing worst drought in decades
3. China experiencing the hottest winter in centuries
4. Europe experiencing warm winters where snow boarding, skiing mountains are closed because the snow have all melted
5. America experiencing snow storms
6. Middle east... err... bombing themselves?

See... no part of the world is safe... Lets just all spend quality time with our loved ones.. forget everything else!!!

=)

Yay yay yay! Tmr's going to be cool! And I mean temperature cool, heh. Tmr's going to be a cool 27 degrees! Its been a week since the scorching heat had visited this lil city.

Anyways, I realised that I've been going through this bout of mood swings, which explains my incessant ramblings and grumbles on this blog. But, I'm feeling happier now. I don't know if its the company I got this weekend or the 5 non-stop episodes of prison break I've watched or the whole weekend of just doing nothing. I guess its a lil of everything?

Anyway, there's this post on Mike's (shrek) blog on his depression episodes, which I thought was pretty interesting. For guys who never understood how girls felt when they were cranky, maybe you should have a read and learn a lil from this sensitive new age guy!

Work today was pretty alright, least I had, and knew what to do. Kept me occupied the whole day. I've written a list of things to do tmr at the office, but I doubt it'll keep me busy the entire day. Oh well, since tmr's going be such a fine day, I shant complain and I'll look on the bright side of things =)

Enough for today, time for a facial to treat myself =P

Sunday

One of the most common things you'll find in someone's blog is lyrics, chinese, english, japanese... wateva... And most of the time, no one reads them, its like a free expression of emotions, one you dont have to be responsible of.

原来

街灯绊住我眼前
下一步 拉长的影子
嘲弄的回顾
电话亭仍留着你的话
一句话 掉一滴泪
今晚的我 会是如何入睡

原来最疼痛的表情竟是没有情绪

原来最残忍的画面可以甜言蜜语
我不懂得如何更爱你
影子讽刺地 跟着我难分难离
原来最孤单的是我还是那么想你
原来最悲哀的是我不能面对自己
你 收的干净
我也会 不留一点痕迹

说故事也要像是真的

可是别触动那些回忆
今夜你说了最后一句
一句话 掉一滴泪
看来今晚的我 很难入睡

Melting

Sharing the eratic weather here. Its the super duper hot season now.



40 degrees tomorrow, I think I'm going to faint soon.

My Journey

I just had to rant about my journey today. Its horrible, refer to the diagram below.



As you can see, the distance I travelled today = 2x + y
Actual distance that I should have travelled = z
And since 2x + y > z , I wasted precious time and beauty sleep!

All the buses in this city heads towards the City. So eventhough there's a direct route from my house to my uni, I had to travel into the city, then out again. It sucks because the traffic in the city is very bad, its very congested. It would be less annoying if I didnt have to walk a long distance to change buses. Seriously... I had to walk like 15 mins to the bus stop to catch my next bus, and its freaking 35 degrees today!

Last night was very warm too, hence I didnt manage to get much sleep cos I was tossing and turning the whole night. Which makes me very cranky today.

So yeah, pardon my ranting. I just have to get it out.

More whinging

Its been 3 days of work and I'm still struggling to drag myself out of bed at 715 in the morning. Its not even considered early for those of you who already started work. But I just find it very difficult. My new/temporary housemate says that its normal and that I'll get used to it pretty soon. I really don't know how long it'll take me to get used to this. For those who know me (well enough), you should know that I'm a pig, bedtime = anytime... So... Urgh!

I'm off work tmr morning cos' I have to go back to uni to attend some meeting. I thought I could sleep in and enjoy a lil' luxury. How wrong. Although my briefing only starts at 10am, I gotta leave the house by 810am because it takes almost 2 hours to get to my uni from my bro's house. Like "are u kidding me?!" after taking into account the time I need to change buses, I calculated my luxury sleep would be an extra 15 mins. Grrrreeeaat.

Life is really full of ironies... When I was studying, I can't wait to start work. Now that I'm "working" 9 to 5, I wish I was still studying, still enjoying the benefits of a flexible timetable. I guess the pastures are always greener on the other side.

Bye SGP

Once again, I'm back in this piece of flat, dry land... A place I hafta call home for the next few months. The holidays came and went really quickly. I guess its because I started to work and kept myself really busy for the last month, so the days just pass without leaving any time for me to think.

Kinda sad about leaving SGP actually, dont know why, but just feel like I miss the people, the place even the weather. Its the famous big "W" curve when you move out of your comfort zone. Its really something that I have to learn to deal with I guess.

First day of work wasnt too bad, but it can't be classified as good either. Firstly, when I arrived at the office, only to find out that my supervisor, my lecturer and I had some kind of miscommunication. Supervisor expected me to report on Tuesday, Lecturer told me to report on Monday. So I did as I was told, and since they weren't expecting me to report a day earlier, no one prepard anything for me, the desk still had a whole layer of dust, no email account was created, no pass prepared for me. Not the best way to start off the whole thing but at least they got most of that stuff settled by lunch time.

Met my supervisor, I think she's like one of the "most busiest" person around in the office, and she also has the "most messiest" office around. Papers lying everywhere, post its all over the computer screen, you get what I mean. And she's been on holiday a week prior to this, so... everyone wants a piece of her. Basically, she's in great demand, so I gotta fight for her attention! But I must say she's really very friendly and easy to talk to, at least that's my first impression of her. We had a short chat and we briefly talked about the project that I had to complete during my time under her supervision. She told me the title and my jaw just dropped. I just stared at her blankly. I swear I must have looked like an idiot. I was supposed to draw up a plan to monitor the".....(secret)".... like wtf?! Where am I supposed to start? What exactly must I do?! Luckily she assured me that she'll come up with a program so that I'll have a direction. But she's so busy, I wonder when she'll finish writing the program for me! =(

Starting to understand my working friends' feelings about waiting for lunch time, waiting for tea-break and waiting to go home cos' that's really what I did today! Ha... I hope tomorrow will be a better day... I shall stop whinging for now.

Some pictures of my favourite students at my old work place. They just brighten up my day!

My curly fries hair

You know your hair is pretty when:

1. 99% of your gal friends compliment your hair

2. 1% of your guy friends say "what happened to your hair?!"

3. A stranger stops you on the road and asks you where you did your hair




*beams*

I must thank my hairdresser for my curly wirly hair!

The New Year - 2007

They say a new year is a new beginning and I certainly hope this year will be just as great, if not better than the previous one!

No new year resolutions for me because like whats written on Sam and the City, new year resolutions seldom stick. "The resolutions are usually too ambitious and too rigid. It's a recipe for failing... unrealistic goals will only end up causing increased levels of bitterness, defeat and unhappiness."

Maybe all these are just excuses for not working on something throughout the year, maybe I'm just lazy, hoping that things will happen on their own. Or maybe I've always been setting small goals, resolutions or not don't really make a difference.

Although I dont have any resolutions, I sure have plenty of wishes to make. With my birthday just around the corner, I think I can have more wishes? heh heh...

Wishes for 2007:
1. World Peace - hahahahahaha... but seriously, think bombings in Bangkok, that's one less place for us to go! =P
2. The people I love to stay in good health and find happiness
3. To be offered a scholarship to do a PhD in Dietetics
4. To meet someone who can make me happy

Four wishes aren't too much to ask for I hope!

Well, Happy New Year to all!!!

Goodbye 2006

As the same ol' saying goes... Times flies... It really does. It is new year's eve once again. This year has been a pretty good one, without any major disasters and with plenty of things to be thankful for. I've been thinking about how the year had gone by and like any other year, there were plenty of ups and downs. But all these ups and downs gave me life perspective about life and made me grow as a person. Just to recap the ups and downs of this year...

Downs:
1. Left SG on Valentines, and my mum was the only person who sent me off because everyone was busy celebrating Vday with their other halves. I spent my Vday with the hot air stewards.

2. Arrived in Adelaide all alone and have to deal with matters that needed to be settled personally.

3. Quarrelled with the SG gals and left an indelible scar on the friendship.


I guess things will never be the same again

4. Got really sick during the winter holidays and spent 2 weeks hibernating at my new home all alone.

5. Failed my "ward allocation" (something like a practical test) - not happy


Ups:
1. Had the experience of travelling interstate to play games, made new friends, strengthened existing friendships and improved my own game play!


I love this line-up... I look like a dwarf with them


The team that played in Sydney!


The League team - btw the womens team came in first!


Thats me - cool huh!

2. Learnt how to bake - damn well!


Oreo cheesecake - just one of the many cakes I can bake =P

3. Mum came to visit me during exam period, helped me to cook and clean the house, then headed to Melbourne for a short shopping trip!


Melbourne - railway station behind me!

4. Found 2 fantastic friends to share the agony of never ending assignments with me!


Best friends - Shan shan & Zhixian

5. Met up with long lost friend, havent seen her since secondary 4!


Havent met both gals since the day we parted NYGH, really enjoyed the reunion..

6. Visited places in S. Australia with my new housemate Charlotte and Lam-pee

At Victor Harbour with Marabelle, Charlotte and mum and me!


At Barossa Valley with Charlotte, her bf, Lampee and me


At Mount Gambier with Charlotte, Joyce, Lampee and me!


Me acting crazy... whats new...


Rainbow taken outside my house...

Looking forward to year 2007 - hope theres really a pot of gold at the end of it!

Cobwebs

Its been eons since I last blogged, I mean a proper blog with proper words. Hur...

I've been back for almost a month now, I should be enjoying my holidays, afterall, there's nothing pressing that I need to do. All I had done since I came back were catching up with people I havent met in a while and hanging out with friends that I've been seeing all year round, and its all good.

I think I'm a workaholic (just like my mum.. sigh), I can't seem to enjoy holidays like others. I find it meaningless to spend my life away without a goal. I find it extremely torturous to wake up everymorning not knowing what I'm going to do for the rest of the day. So yeah, within 2 weeks of my short holiday, I've already found a part time job. Funny thing is, the moment I got the job, I started to dread going to work. I guess its all the ironies of life, people just want to get the things that they can't have.

I also wanna talk my love-hate relationship with "Saturdays". I love Saturdays, its the day when my working friends dont have to work, its also the day I dont have to work. Its rest day! Unfortunately, its also the day my friends spend it with their partners, so my Saturdays are either full on with activities or empty like a white sheet of paper. Okay, I'm being dramatic over here, but remember (refer to the top), I hate to spend my day doing nothing. And so, I hate Saturdays when I've got nothing planned... Good thing is, I can always count on a certain few friends who will make time for me whenever I start whining... Hurhur... thanks dudes...

Okay, next I wanna brag about my new phone. I bought this yesterday using some voucher, so I paid $0 for it!................. TADAH!!!!!



Its Samsung E900, for people who don't know, I have a fettish for Samsung phones. I think they have the coolest gadgets in the market (okay, maybe just behind Apple...) and someday, I'm going to be a Samsung shareholder... HAHAHAHA....

The phone has a 2 megapixel camera, which means I can now take pictures on the go, without having to bring my antique Canon camera out.. Haha! Yay... Maybe I'll uploads pictures from my phone in the next post!

Oh, I bought the red version of the phone, not black as shown. Gao & Lam said it looks like an ang pow, but I dont care, I think its absolutely fabulous!

Initially I wanted to get this phone...



This phone is soooooo TAI-TAI!! And it has functions like bio-rythm counter that can help count a girl's period... hurhur... so cool! But, its not available at any of the service providers, and my voucher can't wait... so... But E900 is damn cool as well... I love my new phone!

Okay, enough of blabbering now, time for my Sunday afternoon nap... zzzzzzz
