sweet 18 and finally legal

quoting from shu, i no longer have to get into clubs and be known as mengqi, candice or gina. HAHA.
being a pig like always, i woke up at 12pm. met fran chye for lunch at vivo then we went to zara to shop for a while. i got myself a top that was on sale. i got cheated cause they had tag the top wrongly. it's suppose to be 39.90 not 29.90. it was too nice to let go so i bought it anyway. a nice present for myself :DD

dad picked my up later and we headed to holiday inn for some bbq buffet. they'd bbq the food and serve it to you. the food wasnt as good as we expected but the staff was really courteous and not to forget the company was awesome. mum finally spoke to me after a 1 wk cold war. i'm glad she did. cause i'd probably die if it continues any longer. haha. my brother was as usual cracking up silly jokes which made dinner much enjoyable. he kept taking the camera and taking pictures of the food. he's aiming to be the next makansutra guy. judging from the way he eats, he just might. HAHA.

thanks to everyone who wished me today. it meant a lot :D

esp liting who's still MIA at the moment cause she's in some malaysian kampung. thanks dear for the early bdae wish and lovely card.

much love to chye for lunch! i hope it didnt burn a hole in your pocket! (:

simei kitchen

~~ms tan~~ YIWEN'S kitchen was opened to debbie, shing. fran, meng and myself today. but meng had to work so she missed it :(

i met fran, late as usual so we reached ms tan's place a lil later HEH. fran thought simei was on the red line the whole while and wanted to get down at city hall. haha. we got lost when se reached ms tan's block. cause we didnt see the unit number on her door and thought we took the wrong lift up. so we spent bout 10 mins trying to find the right lift up. turn out it was the first lift that we took tat was the right one. haha. silly ppl we are.

debbie and shing was alrdy there helping ms tan do the soup and salad when we reached. phoebe is SOOOOOOOOOOOOO CUTE!! i wanted to kidnap her home. HAHA. she doesnt bark at all. the min u walk into the kitchen, she just looks at u. and she likes to stand on her hind legs. fran says she's secretly a human. and omg u shld see how fran talks to her. it's weird. fran says that's why her cat doesnt like her. we wonder why. phoebe also likes to gnaw on ppl's fingers. the min she's out of her cage she's prancing everywhere like a happy bunny.

lunch was awesome. there was mushroom soup, mushrooms, salad and chicken thigh. the chicken was waving at debbie and she became high from it. we chatted bout uni and life. it was really great company that afternoon. the awesome food. the sparkling juice, the friends. been so long since i've seen them. we shld do a meet up soon hockers!! (:

ps: ms tan's room's so nice. orange red brown. so warm and cosy. so is her house! like everywhere had boxes but it's all hidden that it still looked spacious.

we love ice cream

i was suppose to take half day leave, leaving the office only at 1 but cause my whole family woke up late at 10, my dad told me not to go to work. haha. such a slacker eh. that's the plus of being the bosse's daughter. HAHA.

met shu at vivo at bout 2 and it was only 2 of us when we arranged to meet at 1. joyce soon came so we went to eat at thaiexpress. or rather i was the only one eating. we chatted and gina came then to ben&jerry. liting came only at 3plus and we were alrdy eating ice cream. tsk tsk see liting..

though it wasn't a very long meeting, it was really good to see them again. now that we've left school, it's really difficult to have a common meeting time to meet up and chat. i miss those school days..

our merlionster

this picture was taken on behlaf of joyce cause her cam died. HAHA

i need shopping therapy. not that i've lots of money to spend. i havent seen new clothes for a while now. HAHA. and it also means that i've to clear out my wardrobe. and my book shelve and my table. ROAR. i hate cleaning up :x

mambo no. 2!

yes jiu mong is laughing at me on her blog cause i'm still underage. ROAR. it's another 2 wks for me bef i'm ~~illegal~~ legal(i had totally wrote illegal.rofl). so annoying la! anyways she went to borrow gina's ic for me and as usual was slightly late so gina had to wait. i feel super bad for making gina wait.

I'M AWFULLY SORRY GINA! I OWE U ONE DRINK TMR K!!

i was walking out to the bus stop when my bus zoomed pass me. started to run and prayed damn hard hoping it'll stop at the bus stop. but NOOOOOO!! it just zoomed off leaving me no choice but to flag a cab thinking it was the last bus. dumb shit la. 2344 was the last bus not 2244. rofl. so i cabbed a 50cents ride and met jiu mong to bus down. 75 took AGES TO COME!! like half an hour or was it 45 mins. finally it came and by the time we reached zouk it was bout 1130 and the queue was insanely long! it was from the entrance till the end of the road. even velvet had a long queue tat lead into the carpark. crazy i tell u. we walked up and down the queue trying to find someone we knew so we cld cut as everyone was alrdy inside. like jotham said "who are you!? wat are you talking about? everyone's alrdy inside!!" we found weeming and yimei. take goodness for them if not we'll not even get in after that cause it was full house and every floor was freaking crowded. maybe lady luck loves me everytime i club or maybe i've a very ordinary face or i'm just too good looking (HAHAHA) the bouncers have never bounced me....so far. girls will always come at the right time to speak to them. so i got in easily.

the mambo area we were at was just so gross cause it smelt of puke. i think the origin was the empty martini bottle in the ice bucket that we kicked over as we got shoved all over the place. we went to phuture after a while but it's so small tat crowded isnt a very suitable word to use anymore. there was barely space to move and we ended up dancing near the steps at the entrance and the security gave up asking us to move in. then back to mambo after figuring dancing on steps isn't very safe and glam. haha. it was then the music became really good. those familiar oldies. the boys got tired so they just sat ard and i dunno how we ended next to the emergency exit door. the girls were happily grooving until marcus leaned on the handle and opened the door triggering the alarm. it was embarrassing yet funny. thank goodness the guard just stared at us and not scold us. clare, sabby, joyce, ying wei came to join us later. they were pretty out alrdy after drinking at arena bef coming to zouk. they entered zouk, left for arena then back. see cause arena offers free drinks and zouk doesnt so zouk do something please! :D my friendly neighbour passed and he hung out with us while waiting for his friends. shit if he didnt have a ride home i cld have split my $14.25 cab fare. heh. i left at 250 cause i had promised my mum i'll be home by 3 though i reached only at 309. haha. if not i wont be clubbing till 3 anymore but 12 instead. HAHA.

thanks to the guys; titus, keith, marcus who looked after us throughout. had loads of fun. the one funny thing that happened yest was a guy tried grabbing my hand while we squeezed out of phuture. i was super pissed. i flung his arm off and gave him the pissed + wtf look. plus he wasnt even drunk la. i hope he felt bad and that's the worst way to get to know a girl. ew ew ew.

thanks for helping me borrow an ic babe! <3

HOCKERS!

shall go for more clubbing or parties again soon k meng (: love! and happy birthday clare! though it was your birthday and u didnt get drunk, i hope u had enjoyed yourself babe!

post script 1: the other funny thing that happened was as i left, there was a guy that bumped into meng and said "sorry i am drunk. really drunk." and then he continued swaggering away. tat cracked me and meng up. i mean who says that when they're drunk? HAHA

post script 2: i realise so far i've ben dancing next to walls.

post script 3: i made a small blunder at work cause i was so tired that i didn't pay attention. i wrote 430 instead of 472 for my dad to collect an item from the warehouse. he had to take out all the boxes to find an item that never existed. our customer also had to help him out. he almost screamed at me across the phone. i feel horrible bad.. ):

high on potatoes

went for trng today. was pretty sad to see only 6 J1s and no babies in sight. the no of seniors was way more than them. my hockey skills have become quite bad. i cldnt hit a ball properly. my trapping missed a no of times. shoots. i shld go back to train in jan so i dont feel so noob again. haha.

meng as usual forgot to bring something out again. today was her shoes and her mobile. dont understand how she can forget her mobile. HAHA. so she was suppose to go meet clare and shing to go for a party at daryl's but cldn't contact any of them. i decided to go with her cause working for close to a week was making me lifeless. we took an uber long ride there and reached to realise the ruggers ate everything up!! it was like 200bucks worth of food. meng and i had to settle with satay and potato. tat's wat u get when a whole grp of boys are ard and esp after trng. apparently malone and meng said i got high after eating a few potatoes. i swear it wasn't the case. it was just that i've been having late nights and having to wake up early to work so ya. that wasn't good for them so they were laughing at me the whole night. and now i'm known as potato girl. rofl. well it beats having to ask Who Are You like malone at post prom after having a bit too many drinks. he went ard asking who are you? are you my friend? do you have water? HAHA. and he doesn't rmb a thing. but we do so it's ok. (:

we were eating at the table when suddenly jotham ran in and shouted "daryl! someone shat in your toilet! omg! like concrete like that! cannot even flush! damn fucking smelly la!!!!" tat was the best part of the night cause daryl started cursing after that and stood up demanding to know who the culprit was. he was like "OMG WHO'S THE FUCKING IDIOT WHO SHIT IN MY TOILET AND CHOKED IT!!!" the whole house just burst out in laughter leaving poor daryl to be the plumber. azmi refused to shower there and for a long while everyone didnt use the toilet at all. it was really hilarious.

malone who popped his shoulder last wk after only half a min into the match was the cardholder that night cause he was a total noob in playing taidi and bridge. meng and xia had to help him out. by the end of 3/4 rounds he was still left clueless while yimei, jotham, shing owned him in all the games and ended up with half the deck at times.. HAHA. the few of them left so we decided to play bluff. jiu mong cant bluff for nuts. she either opens the cards tat are correct or cant prevent ppl from flipping open her cards. we changed to black jack later cause bluff was too much for us to handle. drayl was so funny cause he was grumbling how shitty is it to go to sch and come here. and we were like "if u dont come here where else can u go. this is your house daryl!" and he went oh ya.. HAHA.

we left bout 1150 with daryl and azmi walking us out. we were talking bout getting jobs and daryl was thinking of getting the weiming job where he sells air purifiers and earn 200 per sale. sounds like an easier job compared to mine!! roar. got home 20 mins past 12 and mum was grumbling at me. but she wasn't mad or anything. thank goodness if not i'll be dead.

it was a really good party all thanks to daryl. unlike other parties where there will be so much booze and ppl get wasted...

senior's night

[pictures are up and more to come]

after all the stress for makeup sessions and choosing the perfect dress, the day finally came. and it was a blast for me. cause i was so blur and forgot to get my dad's card to buy a new camera the day before, i had to wake up at 10 to folow him down to Great World. i settled with panasonic and bused home. i took a good long shower cause once my hair and makeup was done we cant shower properly in case we destroy them. haha. grabbed my bag and dress and headed to bt timah shopping centre to do my hair. it's way way cheaper than doing it at far east. it was less than half the price and it was good. wasn't very wow but nice enough. didn't really like it cause all the hairdressers look and me and go "i'll curl your hair and make it a half updo k. and make a puffy top..." so i end up looking almost the same all the time. HAHA. waited for joyce to get her hair done and we cabbed to town and left liting to do her hair and makeup.

when i reached, lyd had alrdy finished her makeup at the shiseido counter. she looked really pretty. i plonked myself down and told the makeup artist i didn't want a princessy look. cause with my hair and dress and a princessy makeup i'll look like a doll which i dont like. she was really nice and did a gret job for me. but i thought my eyes look to huge cause she lined my top and bottom with blue eyeshadow. HAHA. lyd and i felt bad when we left cause after they did so much for us and we cldnt pay them or thank them properly but just walk off. the lady told us to take lots of pictures and enjoy ourselves.

lyd's mum gave us a ride to the hotel and the minute we reached the room, we went crazy cause the room was really nice! it was huge and the beds were so comfy. the view was good and the bathroom was huge! like twice the size of my own toilet!! HAHA. it even have a weighing scale. i weighed myself and found myself staring at a 48. that means i lost 2 kg. not good i'd say though i've been complaining that i'm fat and blah blah. happy somehow cause i dont have such a fat face and a sharper chin. HAHA. i can actually fit into my mum's 27 jeans when i actually had difficulty fitting into a 28/29 last time. hrm.. anyway, we explored the room waiting for joyce to come over. there's actually an iron and ironing board in the room. cool stuff la!

liting popped in later and gina much later and we were half an hour late. liting was grumbling that at this rate she'll be missing appetiser. tsk tsk see liting! (: when we reached it was just nice as the councellors ushered us towards the ballroom. the minute the first programme was over we started going ard taking picts with friends. prom ended at 10 plus and we continued to take pictures and later rushed back to our room to change out for post prom which was at The Arena.
the bouncers were so nehneh that they were strict. but the funniest thing was they looked at candy's ic and looked at me. then he asked me to spell my full name. i wanted to laugh at his face. seriously. tat was so easy to pass!! (and i think i've been lucky so far cause the other time during mambo, the boncer was busy talking to a girl that he didn't even look at my face. hah!)lyd and liting didnt really like it so they sat at the table or chatted outside. the smoke machine was the stupidest thing ever. i found myself losing my balance or having ppl banging into me. the other horrid thing i hate bout clubs is when guys try to dance with you and u clearly dont want to by moving off and they still follow you! urgh. i felt like stepping on their foot. i'm glad tat i was sober cause after that we saw a lot of ppl just sitting outside stoning or uttering nonsense. haha. while some ppl were so busy making out on the dance floor or ard the club. it's totally gross esp when u realise these ppl arent even drunk rather they were just satisfying each other's needs. ew ew ew...

our silly friend zhen gulped down alcohol thinking it was water. still cant understand how tat happened. HAHA. she sat there still sober but a lil blur and feeling hot. we were worried bout her so we stayed and hung out with her. we ended up heading to liang court's macs. had breakfast then back to the hotel where we chatted till bout 7plus and did silly things in between like talking bout photos tat consist of 1.5litre evian bottles and cookies. rofl. in the end we were all too tired and fell asleep. oh when we were gonna check out, we realised that the sofa had a bed underneath. poor joyce and gina had to sit up and sleep the whole night. sorry babes!!

the gang and zhen packed and left at 12 while i walked to wisma with jane, eil and shu for lunch. then home to rest. the whole way we bused home, shu was complaining how gang ho i was to take pictures with certain ppl. HAHA. but still the main goal wasnt achieved.. so yea. after having so much fun at prom, the tiredness started to sink in and i still havent recovered from it. i'm gonna stay clear of makeup for the time being cause my skin's getting so dry and peeling. heh.

i'm gonna miss all the crazy prep now tat it's over. i mean i liked it though i've been complaining. at least that was a fun thing to pass my time. now it's over, i've to start work at my dad's office and start cleaning out my room. roar. gonna miss my gang and friends too. i hope we'll meet soon! :DD and thank you so much eil! for taking care of the room and having to wait a while before we return u the money. (:
