Being active in twitter made me loosing touch to blogger :/ so i shall use the twitter style to update a short one before i head into my comfy zone

Today marks the second day of work with uob as a so trainee
Training will last for these 2 weeks starting from today; enjoying myself as it brings me back to the good old lecture days
Ytd was such a bad first day of work; down with very bad bad headache & staring at the com screen for 4 consecutive hrs
Classroom trainings held at tamp uob training center & on the job training at serangoon gdn branch
Met nice ppl ard to accompany me for trainings & lunches & tea breaks
I've got a feeling once i start working from 9to6, dressed up formally, those fats are coming back. remind me of my bdp days. GOSH! i dont want them back!!
Started using the lovely bag that beloved mum gave on my 21st, accompanying me to work. loving it ttm!
Darl having a short hols next week, oh yeah! that means more time we spent tgt
Today trainer chris kept repeating "are you with me?", when all along we were all with you listening attentively to you. But she's great.
Loves planning meet ups with bestie roan & pals, looking forward to mooncake bbq gathering, countdown party & the long awaited overseas trip next year!
Just received a bad news from darl that he has guard duty this fri. boohoooooo

Missing WAFFLEWAB

I realise i have been forgetting about my little space here, wafflewab. Life have been pretty good lately, with lots of happenings and the YOG fever is here in singapore. YOG posters are up everywhere, theme song from my teevee everyday, reminders to give way to YOG vehicles, darl snapping YOG scanias, etc etc. it sort of touches my heart when i see the grand opening on sat night, gives a little goosebumps feel, probably really proud of singapore & being a singaporean. way to go Darren! that moment of torch being light up was really significant.

Alrighty, time for some looking back. Sis Ting's hse warming is at last here! Been to their cosy little cove, and i can say though it may be small, but its a nice place to have for the love birds. starting to get envy, the kind of freedom you can get, so nice. hope roan&alvin's application would be successful this time round. Heading back to sis's place very soon for foodie & fun!

Right after Ting's housewarming, invited sisqin to follow us to the cutie pies birthdays celebration. Had a great time "baby sitting" all the kids, they are really really cute! I must admit my energy level deplete much much faster than they do, getting old. boohoo.

HAPPY 5TH BIRTHDAY HANDSOME DAVIAN!
HAPPY 3RD BIRTHDAY SWEETIE CLAUDETTE!

The YOG torch relay is getting round singapore and its here today at north east area! and apparently, it passes by my house. set my alarm clock in time to head downstairs to give my little support. sadly, it was raining cats and dogs at that point of time. but the flame is still burning brightly as the torch bearer runs pass. YOOOHOOOO!

lovely bf gets his well deserved off for close to a week off after helping out at ndp 2010. Shopped at tamp ikea, courts, giant and to audio house that evening. Bought pots of lovely roses for mum and con, and an artificial one for my room! i badly need to clear my room clean & neat, redecorate my space, before i have no more time for all these after stepping into my next stage. plus, darl got his hifi set for his dad. i bet the samsung sound system is really great!

oh, and pulled dad to audio house the very next day to get a teeeveeee! time to get rid of the old bulky one stuck on my console table. & it arrives ytd! YIPEEEEEEE (: enjoying that visuals!!!

Off to wild wild wet! sadly didnt managed to take any photos in there. But surprisingly many ppl are investing in waterproofed cameras now! it has been sooooo many donkey years ever since we stepped into this place, so it feels fresh. wet & wild & fun!

the tai tais are off to watch the YOG! teeheee! dragged bestie roan with me to watch the swimming tournament! wanted to watch gymnatics and diving, but tickets were ALL sold out! argh! so the next interested category would be swimming! it goes really exciting when a singaporean is in the pool and the whole SS goes crazy "SIN-GA-PORE!! SIN-GA-PORE!!" those pri sch kids seated behind us really shout their hearts, or maybe lungs out! haha.

Congras to Rainer ng! looking forward to who is getting the first gold medal for singapore! (:

hmmm...

ITALIANNIES

ITALIANNIES @ Tripleone Somerset.
Pre-Birthday celebration for Xueyi & Xinhui. Time flies, it feels like last week we attended their 21st bd bash at chalets last year. we're turning 22!!

Thanks the great recommendation from alvin, we found this nice italian restaurant. accompanied by good food, reasonable price, great ambience & super friendly staffs. what can you ask for (:

Realised that's complimentary (:

the bread is really nice nice! they came with olive oil / butter. i was so busy taking photos, while enjoying the bread.

Our drinks. didnt managed to snap photos of all the drinks :/





Starters. slurps!

Pizzas!!! the thin crust pizzas are great! they are tasty cos the flavouring is good! and the crust is very crispy. loving it!

that's our Spaghetti & Meatballs. they are meant for sharing; 4-6 people. hmm.. not really a fan of meatballs, so cant comment much. but the spaghetti is not that fantastic.

lovely birthday girls!

& that's the 4 of us (:

Decided we should call ourselves SSBF. instead of me always writing in my organiser as "outing with roan & gang"

ps: SSBF stands for secondary sch best friends. though its alittle 老土, but SSBF sounds nice though.


nice place right?

oh, maybe u should focus on the people instead. yep, they are my dearies (:

Always having man's talk :D

love in the air <3>

Cake cutting session time! the manager just came to our table and asked us "are you guys ready for the cake to be served?" i was totally stunned. cos supposed to be a surprise for them. but didnt know they were efficient.

BUT really nice of the staffs to bring out the cake nicely with lighted candles and even live music. they taught us to sing happy birthday in italian style and they played the tambourine along while we sang. a hyper grp of staffs along with e crazy bunch of us. we sure did attracted alot of attention that night!


That's all of us! CHEESE!! (:

Non stop action of poloriods that night! when i saw xinhui taking it out of her bag, i was high already. HAHA

Hope you two like the presents and enjoyed the night. I bet we all had fun! (:

Happy Birthday!

IPPUDO sg

time flies, 2 years passed when my family trip to Hokkaido in 2008. It has been one of my favourite places so far!! Sure to go back there again if possible. THUMBS UP! weeks before the trip, Connie recommended me lots of nice food place and things to buy back. & she's also a lover of Jap cruisine like me! & she mentioned abt a ramen place which is a must to go. I managed to find it, but my tour grp didnt plan to have a meal there. so sad, so just took a photo of the shop as our tour bus leaves from there.


The ramen is round the corner of this famous shop which everyone who has been to Hokkaido would know. I rem my family bought 2 huge boxes of stuff from here. teeheee (:




Yep, this is it. the shop at Hokkaido! im sure you misses it too right Connie, if you are reading this. hee

TADAH!! NOW OPEN IN SINGAPORE, Mandarin Gallery!!

Yep, my dinner date with sisters at Ippudo (:

sad to say, the shop has not much sitting area. so we queued for an hour before we get to taste the yummy ramen!

yeah, these are my sweetie sisters (((:

& look at the nice lamp shades. Really nice ambience to eat in

Here comes our food!! we waited like ard 5min only after our orders have been processed. Shocked by the speed! hahaha. Our stomachs were all rumbling during the queue. Guess they heard it. teeheee

Above left: That's mine!! Shiromaru Classic
Above right: that's da jie's! Shiromaru Classic with egg
(she never fails to get a coke & egg for any meal. teeheee )

Above left: that's SisNoi's! Akamaru Modern with egg
Above right: that's SisQin's Akamaru Modern
Dont worry, that's not chilli, its yummy miso paste! (:

There were choices for us on the texture of the ramen, to be softer or harder. All of us choice the default normal ones. & i love it!!! Both soup base were DDDDelicious!

its really hilarious whenever 1 bowl of ramen arrives on the table and the 4 of us uses all our camera to take pictures of the food. I guess the next table must think we're some food critique or crazy bunch of ppl. But guess it has been smth we already use to (:

Food reviews recommended that their rare cheese cake is a MUST TRY! Yes indeed. i was afraid of the milky taste initially. But luckily there wont. Rich taste of cheese and lemon = Yorgurt. the texture is like a curd rather than a cake. so we named it "cheesecurd topped with sweetened chashew nuts"

Though the price is rather steep for a bowl of ramen, ard $15 per bowl. But I'll be back for more, being a jap crusine lover cum soupy noodle lover. teeeeheee. Connie, do go try it if you have not ya! (:

After which, went to ion b4 for mango desserts. their fresh mangoes are as usual super sour, but overall still refreshing.

Love you sisters! XOXO (:

Foodie make me fat!

Argh, doesnt feel good to stand on the weighing machine to see that there's a slight weight gain, even a 1 decimal point. hmmph!

Few of the recent good food pampered.

Today.
After a good swim with roan at sk sports hall, went to compass for a Jack's place set lunch. Yummy! Roan had sirloin steak with cheese & mushroom sauce while i had grilled boneless chicken with sambal sauce. The set lunch include minestrone soup, tea & a scoop of icecream. How fattening can this lunch be :/

WARNING: DO IT ONLY ONCE IN A WHILE!!

Few saturdays back, had a date with darl to have breakfirst at Rangoon road's famous Ng Ah Sio Pork Ribs Soup. Delicious & fulfilling breakfirst for us! Darl cant stop praising abt how nice the vegetables were :x haha. though the soup was alittle too peppery for me, but overall its still nice (:

WARNING: CASH PAYMENT ONLY!

& few days ago, ^^ & i were on a secret project. & its completely done on 20.07.10. For a sneak preview, this was also done for little dav & clau. Dav came in and helped with the project too!
