New year's lil gathering

HELLO 2014

So on the first day of 2014, Chengrui Ziqi Cheyenne Javier Jiejun Isabel Therese Wesley Joel and i gathered together for a bbq session at cr's house !

So i met up with Jave at bukit batok first before heading to Cheyenne's house to meet Ziqi and Cheyenne to go to cr's house. LOL we reached there at around 3+ only to find out that the 4 of us didn't have anything to do. Because cr simply told us to stay in the living room to watch tv since his kitchen was small.
BUT ZIQI AND I SOON SPOTTED THE SUSHI AND STARTED EATING THEM. We were stopped but we targeted the sushi fillings next HAHAH and of course, cr chased us out of the kitchen by pushing the container filled with sushi fillings to us and said " Uh okok you two take this and go out eat ok "

And then we went to look for Jj who was outside slicing tomatoes LOL

But then Ziqi Jave and I were bored so we walked to the nearest coffee shop to have a drink ! And then we went to the playground to hang around LOL Initially i was on the swing swinging happily when the metal bar started producing weird sounds and i stopped. THATS WHEN I REALISED THAT THE SWING WAS FOR KIDS. DAMN. I'm too old for that swing. So we hanged around for about 30 mins when everyone came so we waited for wesley to arrive with CHEESECAKE.  Therese Isabel and Joel played volleyball while the rest of us just sat down and chat.

We went back to cr's house after knowing that Wes was already at his house LOL. Went back and had a karaoke session (Y)

That's Joel singing while talking.

Us listening to Joel sing

And yay the bbq session started ! YAY.

Yumz. The pork and beef patties, chicken wing, steak and the wrap.

Sushi, salad and idk what is that bowl of thing with tomatoes called. And and look at the left hand side..... it's the sushi filling that we were all eating LOL just left with 2 sausages and 3 crab meat #power
 

The bbq pit

So while waiting for the food to cook.......

We finished everything at around 7+ pm when it was cr brother's turn with his friends. So we went up to cr's room and played indian poker and had the cheesecake that wes made. YUMZ.

Bye 2013, hello 2014

So year 2013 is about to end soon and i'm really glad and also sort of excited about year 2014. A new year, a new start. 2013 has certainly left me with a lot of beautiful memories that i'll remember forever and also taught me some lessons that i'll be sure to bring it on to 2014.

January

My year started well as i was having a countdown at my aunt's house with my relatives and also delicious food and that also meant the start of my stressful secondary 4 school life.

School started and we had to beautify our classroom. Although only 8 people stayed back, i'm glad we were all able to complete it and make our classroom prettier !

February

My clique had steamboat at Isabel's house on the start of february, right after school.

Then i snipped off my hair because i wanted a change.

And then, i celebrated Chinese New Year over at Malaysia in Port Dickson. It was great because i love get-togethers like this.

March

 We had to stay back to practice for our cheer competition.

I went to sports heat to support my class with Cheyenne and Ziqi

Our cheer practice before the actual day. AND WE WON SECOND !!!!

USS with the secondary 4 express classes !

April

My birthday celebration ! I didnt manage to blog about it because i was really busy.
" Brimming with love and joy " so that basically explains the design that my clique did.

May

Went to Saizeriya for the first time with my clique.

June

Prolly the month that i started getting into being fit .

Outing with my clique to the railway near KAP which was about to be removed or something.

Malaysia trip to Cameron Highlands, selangor and Ipoh with my extended family.

July

Nothing much happened and we were all busy with our studies. OLEVELS.

 

 Racial harmony day celebration with my lovely class !

August

Same goes for august

September

Cold eyes meet & greet. JUNHO ♥

October

Cheyenne Chong's Birthday

November 

Woohoo ended Olevels on the15th. FREEDOM

Prom night !

Red Camp. APACHES (Y)

December

Ziqi's Birthday celebration. LOL this is the only picture that i have of the birthday girl. Sorry !

 Saturday is ramen day HAHAHA. Ramen outing with Wesley Cheyenne Isabel and Eugene.

Working at Pacific Coffee as a part-time.

So this pretty much sums up this year. It's very boring, i know, AND IT'S ALL BECAUSE OF OLEVELS. Nevertheless, i'm glad it's over.

2013 has been rather good for me. Yes i've lost some things but i'm glad i gained more than what i've lost. 2013 made me realise who were really my true friends ( i mean, excluding my clique because they have always been my best girlfriends and guyfriend ♥ ) who were always there for me despite all odds. So thankful for every single one of them.

And i've let go of the bad memories in 2013. And my " let go " doesn't mean forgiving but i've already let whatever that i don't wish to remember fade with time because i seriously don't see why i should care about anymore. What difference does it make whether i forgive or not ? What's the point ? Call me stubborn or whatever, but i know my character best. I rather spend more time with my loved ones.

But i can say, it's a blessing in disguise. I've gained some really good friends throughout 2013 despite all that. So thankful for all of you lovelies.

Focus on what matters

So 2014 is just around the corner and i can't wait for it to arrive. Let 2014 be a new start but i'll bring lessons that i've learnt along the way along with me.

Ayo ! So i've finally set aside some time to update this blog of mine. Yeap my job has started and it's already been 2 weeks working for Pacific Coffee Company.

They have a few branches at Suntec, Red Dot Singapore, Marina Bay Financial Centre ( mbfc ) .... etc and i'm working at mbfc while jiejun is working at Suntec. LOL yeah i know it's very far considering that i'm staying at Yew Tee so traveling takes about 1 hr 10 mins. Working at Pacific Coffee in mbfc is really different compared to other places because they cater to people working in offices so we have to be fast and efficient. For example, for mbfc, the things that they ordered will be put in a brown paper bag and coffee are in those paper cups you see in Starbucks, just that ours is in plain white. While for the other branches, they go for fast and atas LOL. Their food are on glass plates while their coffees are in glass mugs. So ya you roughly get what i mean.

The place where i'm working at is on level 23 and so every time when i take the elevator up, my ears will be blocked. I'M NOT KIDDING. It's really high though ! Shiyun told me that she can't stand near the full-view mirror for long cos she is scared of heights. Same goes to another colleague of mine who will have migraine if she stands there for long.

Working there is quite fun actually and time passes really fast. I'll reach mbfc at 7 am in the morning > prepare food like sandwiches > 8.30 the coffeehouse opens > make scrambled eggs / toast sandwiches / make coffee ( latte, capp., mocha, americano )
And then in the blink of an eye, it's 11+ am which isn't the peak hour anymore. There, i have to multitask. Like one side i have to toast sandwiches, on the other, i have to keep an eye on the scrambled eggs to make sure that the timing is just nice and then also prepare the paperbags, napkins and cutleries. HAHAHA i'm just scaring you. That only happens when Shiyun isn't around. But if she's around, i'll just make the sandwiches while she toasts and sends the orders out.

So then i'll have my break yay. My 1 hour break is divided into 2 muahaha : 20 mins to eat and 40 mins to sleep on the sofa. Huat ah. Although this job is kinda tough i admit but it's kind of fun too especially when i have really friendly and funny workmates ;) And and $10 is given everyday for my break. If you cant use up the $10 ( obviously cos $10 is quite a lot ), you can bring food home to share with your family. Sometimes if there aren't a lot of customers, i can sit inside the store to eat and drink. * thumbs up * but fat die me :(

 So this is the view i see everyday during my break (Y) LOL so every time when it's time for me to sleep i will stare at this scenery and miraculously doze off HAHAAH

Shopping is my cardio.

Now since olevels are over and my job hasn't start yet, i basically have nothing to do. Like literally nothing. So whenever my parents are heading out. i would tag along because i want to shop ! So these few days i've got 3 clothings from  Cotton On  and H&M

 A red dress with white polka dots from Cotton On.

A navy blue dress with white stripes

These are the dresses that i got from Cotton On. I don't usually wear dresses last time cos i felt that it's a hassle like i have to take note of how i sit so that i would not accidentally expose myself. But now i grew a liking towards dresses so yeah i'll wear them soon !

 Navy blue skinny jeans from H&M

Yay i've finally found a skinny jeans from H&M at Suntec City that i really like. I don't know why but i like super fitting skinny jeans and this met the criteria hehehe. The black one that i have now wasn't as fitting as this cos i brought it long time ago so it looked like normal jeans now. AND i've also grew out of it. Like it became shorter and everytime i wear it, i'll have to pull it downwards a little so that it wouldn't be above my ankle. It's cheap too $17.90 ! I think it's under Christmas deals if im not wrong. I got this a few days ago and i recently went to another H&M outlet at JEM but i couldn't find it anymore :(

So now that i've got a job, i'm glad that i can buy things using my own hard-earned money now since i'm kind of guilty that whenever i buy something, my dad will always pay for it.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ZIQI

So we ( Javier me cheyenne jiejun therese isabel xuanhui) planned for Ziqi's birthday outing and since ziqi suddenly suggested we go sentosa on saturday, we decided to bake her a cake on friday. Other than her cake we also baked a lot of other goody stuffs like cupcakes, macaroons, apple crumble. Prior to that, Ziqi suggested that we go for a picnic and everyone contribute one food for that picnic. So....

Ziqi : Drinks ( LOL THE CHEAPEST OF ALL )
Cheyenne : Salad ( Healthy lifestyle thumbs up )
Therese : Apple Crumble
Jave : Cupcakes and sandwiches
Me : Fruits ( Healthy lifestyle haha )
Isabel : Errrr i forgot oops.

So after settling all that, the rest of us planned for the celebration cum outing ( without ziqi of course ). So we added in Macaroon cos ziqi likes it. So we went to IMM early in the morning to buy all the ingredients needed and we ended up spending $58.21. Wowowow. Then we went to Subway and got our lunch before boarding Jave mum's car back to his house. Then after lunch, everyone separated into their different jobs

Cheyenne and jj : Cake
Jave : Cupcakes
Therese : Apple crumble
Me and bel : Macaroons

LOL the whole kitchen was chaotic as hell cos all the ingredients and bowls were laying everywhere. At first i thought our macaroons were going to be the fastest but because of the almonds, we were panicking. Like we were supposed to use almond meal ( finely ground almond ) but there weren't any so we just thought of grinding them ourselves using the blender.
The first few batches of almond meals were perfect but later on when bel told me to grind the almonds longer, the almond meals turned into PASTE. Yucks.So we had to head downstairs again and buy another 2 small packets of almonds. SUPER EXPENSIVE omg. So we managed to complete everything and pop them into the microwave. The first and second batch of macaroons were great but the rests of them became chao da so we threw them away. FAIL TTM.

Bel and i completed everything at around 4.30. Thought i could rest but then jave was like " EH THE SANDWICH LEH. FASTER DO. " So jave and i did the sandwiches. LOL all jave did was cutting the bread into 2. The ham tasted so great that everyone kept taking and eating them. Yumz.

Ziqi's birthday celebration cum clique's outing

Both Jiejun and xuanhui couldn't turn up cos jj is going to bkk while xh has work :( So we sat Cheyenne dad's van to west coast park ( LOL change of location ). We spotted Ziqi at the bus-stop so we were crouching down while heading to find a nice spot.

We laid everything down and waited for the birthday girl to turn up. THE WIND WAS SO STRONG THAT IT RUINED OUR MATS. So anyway we sang the birthday song for her the moment ziqi appeared and she sang along with us. LOL yeah she guessed it. I mean it's rather obvious too LOL

All the goodies yums. The cookies were like a last minute thing but it tastes super good (Y)

So here's the birthday girl with her maroon hair and cheyenne LOL

So bel therese and jave went to play while me ziqi and cheyenne sat on the mat chatting and eating. 

Cheyenne : * eats sandwich while looking at them playing * 

Me : Eh cheyenne you look like a mother looking at her children playing LOL

Ziqi : HAHAH ya correct leh 

Cheyenne : We all look like mothers helping our children take care of stuffs while they play lo   please

LOLOL so when we all thought it was going to rain, we all packed up only to realise that the sky is still bright. So everyone of us left our things on the bench and went to play. 

And then it rained...... So we all ran to mac and settled there to chat about all sorts of things.

Kind of glad that we all managed to meet up cos i know next time, it'll be harder since some of us are going to jc, which is different from poly. While those going poly are either going overseas or going to work.
