Mulan obsession!

I loved Disney's Mulan!!!

And I also love Zhao Wei and Cheng Kun's Mulan!!!!! Hahaha.. went to watch it with Jessica yesterday. We both agreed that the beginning of the movie was too fast, there was not much character development. But who cares!!! There's Zhao Wei with Cheng Kun!!!!! That gives the movie a auto 2.5 stars! For the movie, i'll give it 4 stars!

They have very very nice songs too!!! the one below is a fan made mv which has both the disney version and Zhao wei's version with the SONG! Enjoy!



This is the main song by Sun yan zi!



Here is another mv - Painted Heart that they acted in together beginning of this year... and I loved it too!!! To add on the treasures, there's Zhou Xun in it too!!!



Shall upload the pics of jessica and me raiding bugis christmas ambiance soon!

Childish confessions

When I was much younger, I used to think that the number of presents one receives on his or her birthday is a sign of how popular he or she is. If I had continued to think like this, I'ld had probably sank into depression thinking that somehow I had became a horrible person.

I was just peering at the line of teddies and photoframes, tiny presents and gifts that I had received and fondly displayed over the years. For most of them, I still rememebered from whom and when I had received it. If it's some kind of collection of proof, this year must have been the most miserable. What I have blogged is what I had received but I am still very grateful for those who remembered.... I love presents, not that I am materialistic for a simple slice of cake or a little dollar hp strap can really bring me much joy...just that I thought that I had made the most number of friends in my university years, but whether I have a place in their hearts I do not know... when I go for planned/surprise b'day parties by friends for friends, or when I plan something or anything... it makes me think why I'm doing/people do such things but mine's void and empty. Keeping touch with friends before uni years were more than difficult.

Neither did I receive anything from this so called family, I don't even know if they knew I was born into this place that very day. maybe coz they thought I nv gave, thats why I didn't receive. I know I am horrible here, but it's terrible too. Makes me hate even more.

And if it's true that I am horrible, then horrible I shall be. It can't be helped. Uni year 1 taught me that I need to protect myself. Even person I had loved and buddies I trust the most can be my worst enemy. Even your own mother can create hell for you.

2 other Birthday celebration events!!!!!!

Firstly, Shawn and Wan Ru celebrated my birthday was a little surprise! Although it was around the exams period!

It started off with me and Shawn having breakfast at 1 Camarel.... and it was fantastic! Although we used the 1 for 1 coupon, it was still pricey in the end coz we got the price for the pizza wrong. Still worth it though =)

The ambiance was nice and quiet. Artas I would describe.The heavenly pizza with some Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Pharma Ham!! (Quoted from dear shawn! lols!!!) ham and lots of cheese! Thin crust with fresh vegetable, it was a perfect match among all the ingredients! I give it 5 stars!And this is shawn with a 'dunnoe why he did that kind of' face =DThe fantastic hot and cold dish! Warm choc mud cake and cold vanilla ice cream... just look at flowing thick hot choc lava!Then was this highly recommended praline choc cake! Surprisingly, it tasted really really like a big chunk of soft Ferro Rocher! Absolutely Ferro delicious!
We then went on to my secret study place in the afternoon. We played our fav scrabble there and had dinner which consist of spagetthi look alike myonnise with pimping hot and crispy onion rings.... Brustwart with wedges and FRESH veges...
and HAM-PACKED sandwitch with lots of vges again!!!!

Our coffees as we studied...


And the surprise brithday cake!!! it Terrimissu and its absolutely delicious too!!! Shawn wrote the happy birthday!


It was a good evening and dinner at yesterday Bakerzine with an old friend Enni who insisted that she should celebrate with me my 21st brithday no matter what.. ahha! It was her treat.

Here is the present I chose. I can wear this to Cameron Highland and other cold places and also to act as a hygiene buffer between NK's helmet and my precious hair/head! Enni got the set while I simply got the soup and sausages. Mine's the golden colour pumpkin soup and she got the half-filled bowl of corn soup (guess coz its complimentary!)

Her pork chop with sweet and spicy spagetthi. The pork was nice and well cooked and the spagetthi had a good 'Q' level. The sauce however was too tasteful... a mouth of it and I thought I'ld get sick from it. Enni found it too tasteful too. Rather dissapointing since it is a chef recommendation.
Bread was free flow and with olive oil to dip in, it's probably the best dish among all the food we had! I'm biased I know!


This is my main course! It was too salty at the beginning, I tot I'm gonna get some liver failure or smth if I finished everything. Surprisingly, the salty taste faded the more I ate! However, its still dissapointing. I tot Bakerzine, an established eatery would serve better food than TCC and my secret hiding place! The verdict: Stick to the cakes and desserts - their forte.

I was also given the Bakerzin card as part of my birthday present! Fantastic issit it? Thank you Enni!

My 21st Birthday =)

Although he repeatedly pissed me off today during my 'finally exams are over!!!' outing... but I must still put up this post when he really made my day and took me away from all my unhappiness at home. Didn't post this up coz it was the exams period. Though it's only for a short while... half a day... but I really appreciate the effort and kindness... not to mention the happiness he gave =)









Very very very very delicious lobster soup!



We finished the salad before I remembered that I have to take a picture of it so I took the left over thousand island instead.. haha!




I had to warm up one of these hearts before putting it into my little dog!

Disowned afew days before my birthday, erased all thoughts of birthdya party, not even a slice of cheese cake from this house, not to mention no key. I am probably the only one I know with no key for my 21st. Like a orphan eh. Khai is the only present I received for my 21st birthday, but its the only present I probably need =)

Thank you Nam Khai!

FOOD FOOD FOOD - and short hair

This was a way outdated pic. Guess who this is!I had the intentions to go home after project meeting in the late afternoon to take a nap, but I ended up at my secret hideout yesterday because I overslept on the train from Pioneer and when I woke up, Halliluya.... I was at RedHill already. In order to make myself feel not so stupid, I decided I am going out to study. Had this macadamia caffe latte a drink which was supposed to give an aromatic nutty taste as quoted from the menu, but my tastebuds could not find any nutty taste, much less the much wanted taste of macadamia nuts. Just another nice cup of coffee. - $5.30. If you wanna see picture refer to Amaretto caffe latte. Looks exactly the same. Wonder why.
Went to find my mom after that for a interview session for my 21st century project. I was intending to pack a cake for her and to my pleasent surprise, there was a one-for-one offer for the $6 bucks cheese cake there=). Got the Brownie Chesecake, which was a huge contrast in terms of taste and texture to the Oreo Cheesecake. The Oreo one was soft, creamy and melts in the mouth like sour cheese candy floss, totally heavenly with a balanced mixture of sweet oreo and cheese, but the Brownie one had a thick layer of chocolate on tip and it was like cruching on a hard peice of 50 cents chocolate and the cheese part felt like it was left out in the open for too long and had hardened. We didn't finish the Brownie one in the end. A TCC outing with shawn. You won't see any of us here coz we had weird hairstyles tt day and decided NO PICTURES of us. I had my hair cut short earlier in the day and Shawn was
  1. aghast with surprise. ~mailto:~!@#$%^&*()
  2. then overcomed with a huge desire to laugh !@#$%&*()!@#%&*()_~!@$%&*()!@#$%^&
  3. and eventually got used to it -.-
  4. and he had a great deal of time making fun of my hair.
I've forgotten to note the names and prices so maybe I'll update it next time. It was a strawberry dinner.
Shawn's pasta with smoked salmon.

MINE!! I really like the well 'garnished' bread. Just look at all the ingredients in the spreading. Not your normal butter!
The sausages (two of em) was juicy and lip smacking too. Crispy on the outside, juicy at the insides. with CHEESE.



Shared. Strawberry Cheese cake with Vanilla Ice Cream.
I also tried one of the set meals at my secreat hideout. Had the Seafood Marinara Set Meal- assorted seafood and linguine sauteed in herbed tomato sauce. The sauce was pretty normal, nothing great at all about it, but I must compliment the seafood! The fish, prawns, sotong and clams were all so fresh and delicious, like those I get at CafeBiz at M Hotel. They are really abundant in the plate too!!! Just look at the second photo! Serving was big so with the really good seafood, I must say this plate may be undercharged!


Complimentary Mushroom Soup. Well, good try with the fresh mushrooms... but the soup's too blend. Tasted only better with pepper.
Since I was staying for some time, I topped up another 2 bucks for this Garlic Bread Basket. I feel so healthy eating it! No visable sugar bits, totally wholemeal with visable seeds and oats, cruchy on the outside soft at the insides... it was the highlight of the set meal =P

Amaretto caffe latte combination of almond, hazelnut and caramel taste. This one has the nutty taste =) Spent a total of about 22 plus here. Given tt I settled lunch, tea and dinner here... ok lar hor. A long ago dessert time at TCC again... the Green one's suppose to be Green Tea, but it didn't taste like it. The one in the middle, Strawberry Cheesecake. (EH??!!! Shawn! I tot we had the blueberry one!!!! ) The one at the right's a reccomend. It's called mont blanc. We could not decipher the taste.. but its abit nutty... anyway's, it's good. Go try it sometime.
We had tea after tt... a really aromatic and fruity one and I really liked the transparent cups ...


I had a haircut on Tuesday and the hairdresser, after learning that I had long hair for 7 years, decided to cut everything away and make it short. yes. SHORT. So now, after 7 happy year of long flowy permed once, highlighted twice, rebonded twice with countless treatments, he cut everything away. They should be all in the dustbin now. And I didn't ask for it. I simply state my threshold for the minimum lengths and trusted him and I ended with a 4 inch difference.
Feedbacks were great.
