:)

Liverpool's new season started pretty brightly~ hopefully it's sustainable :P

~Looking for small things in life to make my day better :)

world cup!

I actually forgot to post ANY thing abt the world cup!! -_-" can't believe myself...it's only when the EPL is starting that i rem abt it~

Although i am happy that Spain won, it would have been better if Germany won :P I think this world cup, the Germans have won over the neutrals and in some instances, deflected fans - like me :)

3rd place Germany - i am so sad for Klose for not breaking Ronaldo's most no of goals record :( But i am glad that Muller won the best young player award...if only villa won the golden boot...haa

World Cup champions for the first time - they have made history~!

5 days of break from work! :)

So how have i spent the 5 days away from work~?

Day 1:

Pretty much spent the day at the bridal studio helping ade choose her gowns...i must say some of them reallie looks very pretty :) all the b-e-a-u-tiful laces + sequins, my ♥~

I must say i was quite disappointed that some of her frenz seem to think that the evening gown is not nice leh..i dun reallie see the problem? Hmm..i guess everyone's main concern was the colour.. oh well~ they shall see on the actual day~!

I did have my doubts for her outdoor gown though, they say the silhouette is more impt...but i tot the halter design is not very flattering on her upper body though but as long as she likes it :)

Spent the rest of the day watching the other couples beside Kim Hyun Joong and Hwang Bo on season 1 of We Got Married...proved very entertaining indeed :D (yes yes, korean craze still burning strong!)

Day 2: JB!

Wakaka~ My official shopping spree day~ bot 4 pants, 1 pair of shoes (♥), some hair accessories, the gown (purple!) + cardi for sis's wedding dinner

Bad news is during lunch, my appetite still has not improved...seems like i have difficulty eating outside (i can't possibly develop the phobia of eating outside right?!?! *in hysteria*), cos i realised i tend to finish my food at home~We had lunch at Wang Jiao Cafe but i seriously does not like HK tea -.- i don't like teh si~ can i say the cup is like the biggest cup of tea i have seen -.- look! it's bigger than the soup bowl!

By dinner though, i was able to eat more, who can resist fresh crayfish :)...anw, according to my readings, for acid reflux cases, the appetite tends to improve as the day progress cos during the day, gravity will help to pull the acid down whereas in the night, while slping, you are lying flat so the acid is able to "flow" up more...soooooooooo i guess that might be the reason why i eat better at home too, since my meals at home are usually dinner time? haha

Night time was spent on Boys over Flowers - Nope, i still don't like Kim Hyun Joong's version of Hanazawa Rui...He shouldn't be smiling so much, let alone so brightly O.o so not hanazawa rui...this might be the first version of Hana Yori Dango that I am on Domyouji's side...but no, i don't like lee min ho either -.- where's my jang geun suk?? :( If only he did not reject this role~

Day 3: Woke up late...was supposed to meet Ash & co at Bugis at 330 but only reached close to 4 :X haha...BUT still better than ade tan who TOTALLY forgot abt this until ash msg her at 330! she eventually reached at 5+ -.-" tsk tsk tsk

managed to catch up w the gals (actuallie only ash and yun since i see lyn and ade more often)...we went to eat at the jap place at iluma where we can take the order ourselves by using the pen and tapping on the menu~ (we were all very sua gu and were very amazed by it :P) the menu has a large variety of food~ the strawberry yoghurt shake is quite nice but the choco cheesecake can be missed~

Went to Kovan to collect my new Pink/purple glasses~ heee and dinner w parents again~ :P

Night time - spent surfing thr all the channels since they let us watch for free till 10th aug 00:00

Day 4: Yay~ welcomes back kickboxing (and the muscle aches)~ tiring

MJ with Bao and YZ...a dramatic 反败为胜 win for me :P i was losing like 13 bucks at some point of the game but at the last 2 rounds, a couple of 4 and 5 tais later, overall winnings = 6 bucks...lol~ i.e. i "won" 19 bucks in the last 2 rounds wor *clap clap* :P

started discussing abt our korean trip BUT realised the tickets alone cost 1k+ per pax! jiu ming ah~ still haven't decided if we should go on f&e or tour...i reckon by tour might be cheaper leh...plus if we wanna go ski, we need to find out how to go to the ski resort + cost, if we want to go jeju, we need to find how much the internal flight costs as well...sigh -.- lots to consider...and the worst thing is i wun be ard on the natas fair weekend...so i can't go w them to make the decision together...hai~ hope they can handle it :)

night time - new episodes of WGM :D yay~ i love nic-toria and yongseo couple :P

Day 5: deliberately woke up earlier cos i dun wanna spend my last day of holidays slping...but seriously, the very very first tot when i woke up was that i have to go back to work tomorrow!! so sad...

today was dedicated to Korean pop updates + Korean learning online...i found another website that gives some korean info + korean teaching~

as i write now, i am still going thr some of the "useful" phrases...hopefully i can use them when i go at the end of the yr :)

lastly, a canadian pizza dinner to "celeb" SG bday..full~ :)

Yup~ that sums up my 5 days away from work :)

Jay Chou concert 2010~

Yup my first Jay Chou concert happened on 25 July 2010 ♥

I have never been a fan of his even though i listen to his songs...i rem when everyone was going crazy over him in JC, i refused to join in the crowd...i just dun like to follow the norm...haha but after 10 yrs, here i am, going to my first ever jay chou concert...haha

I think i focused too much on the screen w lyrics that i actually missed looking at the real person..hahaha..kinda defeats the whole point of going to a live concert :P btw, he has like a huge lyrics board scrolling at the back of the audience i.e. for him to see...hahaha...was pretty funny to see that..he tried to include some magic tricks in the concert..1) girl disappeared in the cage, 2) girl apppeared in a box..hahaha...the part where he used the guitar like a gu zheng was also not bad~ but i love the part where he played the piano for the 4 season songs 春夏秋冬~

Spring - Dao xiang

Summer - Yang guang zai nan

Autumn - Long Juan Feng

Winter - Yan hua yi leng

He does look super charming when he is playing the piano...:)

i think the most disappointing thing for me is the special guests...nothing special abt the special guests...hahhaaa and! he didn't sing ANY of the songs from 十一月的萧邦, my fave album of his -.- sad

Well overall it's not my favourite concert tt i have been to...partly cos i am not like a mega fan of his...so it's kinda hard to get high + i AM getting old for this crazy-girl-screaming thing...BUT it was still pretty enjoyable - like a mega sing-along session with Jay Chou...hahaha...and he's quite witty, changing the lyrics of some of his songs to try to get us high~ :) compared to 10 yrs ago, his words have gotten much more too...time does change ppl i guess, especially in the show biz :)

towards the end of his 2nd encore, he sang an impromptu song (cos it had no lyrics on the screen..) 霍元甲~ 霍霍霍霍,霍霍霍霍~~~
