2010-12-25T06:37:00.000Z

I’m very happy to be learning a lot… im not getting much individual attention, but its understandable coz it’s the end of the year and everyone is crazy busy. It’s a great time to be working though, coz this way I get to do so many things in a shorter span of time as compared to if it were during the slower months of the year. Basically, I’m getting to learn more in less time! On the other

2010-12-08T08:10:00.002Z

Sorry for the uber long absence, here are a few updates for those who are curious as to what I’ve been up to. After I came back from London, I bummed about a bit. Then in the 2nd week of November, I began an attachment in a firm in kuching. I initially planned to stop in early dec, but since I felt that I was learning a lot and the people were nice, I decided to stay till the end of dec. So

so its time for another update.my last day of work was last friday and on my last few days of work, i was really racking my brain, thinking what else did i need from harrods before i could no longer use the staff discount. i couldnt come up with anything important, so that was rather anticlimactic -_-"i did however buy some godiva chocs and some laduree macaroons ;)alot of my peers are enjoying

before i bitch, i wanna make clear that these incidences dont sound particularly infuriating, but bear in mind that i was working an 8 hour shift in an understaffed restaurant (which means i was running around like crazy) with only a 30min break the entire shift. also it was a generally sh*t day. kthxbai.today, a customer came to the till with 3 cups of soft drinks. she asked if the drinks were

2010-06-05T20:54:00.002+01:00

i sent out my cv to several places a few days ago and received a call from a restaurant as regards my cv. instead of the waitressing job i initially applied for, they were offering me an office job. something to do with accounting.according to the guy, i was over qualified to be a waitress and as it happened, they had an office worker vacancy. although i prefer customer service sort of jobs, i

2010-05-07T23:15:00.002+01:00

my stomach feels like i did a few too many sit ups.its from all that retching. my stomach literally heaved out everything that night. all that heaving must have been a great workout! *sees silver lining*luckily i felt fine and dandy by the time i went for my dining, so i was able to be a glutton as usual and have 2 servings of the soup (the truffle oil in it was delish!!!) and polish everything

food poisoning?

2010-05-06T15:00:00.003+01:00

i puked about 4 or 5 times last night (actually it was more like 4am-ish?).i woke up feeling really awful, so i went to toilet thinking i needed to shit it out, but i ended up vomiting instead. i think it may be food poisoning, but i have no idea what could have caused it.for dinner i had beef and mussels, but so did my friend and he's fine. so it cant be that.after dinner i had some rocky/pocky

2010-05-03T16:53:00.003+01:00

last night, i had the most meat i'd ever had in one sitting. it was at a Brazilian buffet.its would have been quite delicious, except that alot of the meats were too salty :(after dinner, we could barely walk. and it felt like our chests were all clogged up with food, and it wasn't traveling down into our tummies.soo clever. see, thats what you get when you're soo greedy and cant control yourself

jo, faan jin, cheryl and i went ice skating today.i'd been ice skating a couple of times in sunway pyramid before, so i would consider myself ok on ice. ok as in i rarely fall. haha...the last time i was on ice, i tried to learn putting one foot directly in front of the other (forming a straight line), which is actually wayyy harder than in sounds. i fell and hit my head, ending that ice skating

i've used to have a problem with acne which has cleared considerably over the years. however, i've been getting a few on areas of my face recently. and i consider it serendipity that this got sent to my email. its a newsletter i subscribed to, and it was such a coincidence that they covered the topic of what pimples on certain parts of your face could mean. so if you're curious, do check it out.*

have you ever felt that the more you studied, the stupider you got?the more i study, the more stupid i feel myself to be.i never felt this inadequate in high school.i never had panic attacks prior to exams in high school either (*conveniently disregards the fact that the panic attacks could have been avoided if i started studying earlier and was more prepared.* wtf)

2010-02-18T03:45:00.002Z

its amazing how a single song can bring back so strong a memory.a dark room, lit only by the glow of a laptop. series marathon-ing. ice-cream. a dingy toilet without a shower head. late nights. all nighters. a first kiss.and suddenly i am there again. sucked back into that time. everything is so clear, its like i just stepped back into the room, returning from getting ice-cream in the kitchen.

2010-01-26T21:14:00.003Z

macaron and hollandaise sauce?now why would i combine the two??simply because the macaron recipe i tried needed 3 egg whites and hollandaise sauce needs 3 egg yolks =pit was my first attempt making both. and while my macarons looked nothing like macarons, i guess i can say im quite happy with the results :Dalthough the macarons were not smooth and looked more like cookes than macarons, at least

cake and health foods

2010-01-09T23:53:00.002Z

i just baked a cake. the recipe was meant for cupcakes, but i didnt have the proper tray, so i just baked it as a cake instead. taste-wise its fine anyway!it was a chocolate and cheese cake. in the cupcake version, you were supposed to fill it 3/4 with the choc mixture then drop a little cheese cake mixture into the side. so the baked product would be a chocolate cupcake with cheese cake wedged

what i had initially thought would be a stressful week has turned out to be more of a holiday than my holiday ever was :Di was supposed to be having mock exams on tues, weds, thurs and fri.on tues i sat for my drafting mock exam. that evening, we received several emails regarding the forecast of heavy snow for the following days, the final email saying that due to the heavy snowfall predicted for

super brief summary of trip

2009-12-24T00:51:00.004Z

it snowed on the very day i left for malta. in the bus on the way to the airport, i watched the snow drift down and thought it very fortuitous that i managed to evade the snow just in time.however, malta was a huge disappointment. and the cancellation of the return flight didnt help matters. a last minute flurry of finding a room for the night ensued. the room sucked. no wonder there was a room

so its december again. and by the looks of the lights at oxford street and the throngs of kids and families at hamleys, it looks like xmas cheer is all about!im really supposed to be doing my legal research assignment, but i couldnt resist a little online browsing.and so as i browsed, i composed a wish list of the things i saw. note that this is a very wishful wish list =pwhite and silver

when you are mean to somebody, the assumption is that they will dislike you, not freaking develop a crush. wtfanyways, the pace of BVC life is picking up (they just had to squeeze in two assessments before the december break). which unfortunately means less time for frivolity. but i still managed to squeeze in the first two books in the twilight series.after reading the book though, i felt that

2009-11-11T18:37:00.003Z

if u are like me and like to watch films that scare or disturb you ever so slightly, then i would recommend that you watch thirst and hansel and gretel.when i say "ever so slightly", i mean ever so slightly.not those kind of horror films that make u stay awake all night because you are too afraid to sleep. but more like it makes you just a little jittery and when your imagination gets the best of

i saw a tarot card reader today.she had set herself up on a corner of a bookshop that was about to close. and since i had always wanted to have my future read, i leapt at my (very expensive) chance.i came away from the table with only a hazy recollection of what the lady was talking about. at one point through my 20 minutes, i remember wishing i had brought a pen and paper with me to write down

2009-10-23T00:24:00.002+01:00

i had dining at lincolns inn tonight and it went pretty well :Dthe highlight was that i sat opposite CHERIE BLAIR! (ok fine, opposite diagonally, but details details, who cares! wtf)i didnt talk much to her though... the guys next and opposite her were hogging all her attention, talking about super deep stuff that my shallow brain cant handle, so i talked to the girls next to and opposite me

i've been caked

2009-10-19T17:44:00.003+01:00

im not sure which lecturer came up with this, but basically anyone whose phone goes off in class (or any other similar transgression), gets caked.this means that for the next lesson, they will have to bring cake for everyone in class.so the other day, my phone went off and i got caked.personally, it was the perfect excuse for me to start baking again ;)so i whipped out my "hummingbird bakery"

2009-10-10T16:54:00.003+01:00

i finally have internet! no more barging into jo's room to bug her while she tries to watch house =pok, so i havent posted any pics of my new place, so one of the 1st things i did was to transfer pics from my phone to flickr. and in doing so, i discovered half a zillion old pictures that i'd nearly all but forgotten.so from a couple of selected pictures, i'll sum up my year ;)ok, so i kinda lied.

2009-10-06T16:46:00.002+01:00

so i STILL dont have internet. oh joy.its 5pm and i have a day off tomorrow. so what do i do? go to the library and do legal research. exciting.pardon the negativity, im not in the best of moods.the freshers party is tomorrow, but i doubt im going.i went clubbing last friday and its taken me the whole weekend to recover. i used to club several times a week and now i cant even do it once a week!

its only my third day of classes and i already feel like im bobbing along in a stormy sea, about to be pulled under any second.the good news is that i havent been pulled under yet.the bad news is that i might be pulled under any day now. and that if i dont get pulled under, that fear will stay with me throughout the course until i complete it.aish! a slacker like me a really not meant for this

one if the few places i liked in rome, was the Vatican City.it's the holiest christian place in the world. accordingly, i guess that would make St Peter's Basilica the holiest church in the world.so as usual for churches, they had a basin filled with holy water near the entrance of the church, for christians to dip their fingers into and make the sign of the cross.but when i neared one of these
