toshiba laptops for sale at IT Fair; EXPO

 

                 SITEX SHOW

        singapore expo hall 5 & 6

Sitex show is the biggest IT show held usually only towards end of the year. Started in 2006.

 

the fouth IT fair i'm workin for this year. Didnt applied for any leave though. usually i would. to get familiar with the products. tt's y, i'm so dead now. i'm totally not prepared la!

held at EXPO = freakingly crowded. this is suppose to mean more sales. but i doubt i can even sell 10 la! i'm still in my office, rushing my work. although my heart is already at EXPO. haha.

i dont work for the sake of that pathetic money la! i work for the sake of feeding my soul! staring at the computer, data entries, looking for insurance quotations. follow up bank loans... i dont detest what i am workin, but once in a while, i wld like to do something tt is of my interest. to be able to give customer the satisfactory in the products they are looking for. this kind of enjoyment, is not something that comes easy. standing for more than 10 hours a day, with an average pay of $3 (*mind u, that is even lesser than what macdonald is paying okay!!!), for fear of meeting old desperate over-friendly customers who accidentally bumps into you, and ppl who just come to ask for directions where it is very obvious that i am working for toshiba, is more of testing one's endurance level.

blame it that my patience level is damn high! or else i wld not be in the 4th IT show for this year =)

Bao Today

headed to esplanade to get my lil sis her birthday present

marina; diiner @ bao today. sharon dear always insist they the baos are very good. so my gay fren n i settled our dinner there. a couple of food was very good, but some were disappointing, like they rice rolls. seriously, amk central s11 serves very good ones =)

egg tarts. not too bad la. but i think the hong kong cafe at cine serves better ones =)

u guys must be so sick of such post


                               DONUTS AGAIN!!!!

 

sorry peeps, i know u ppl are so gonna roll ur eyeballs! hahaha. i've bought donuts from donuts factory for my ballet frens, and lovely laura got me donuts from summer house! well, i'm the well know donut queen by the way, so it should'nt be something very shocking also wat!

 

 

 

 

Oreo donuts! so smart of laura sweetie. in fact that is one of my favourite from summer house!! thanks so much la!!

 

btw, during ballet, miss mccully (my ballet teacher) was saying. She's got donuts from krispy kremes and she's tempting her daughter with the donuts. Guess what her daughter says: it's okay, let them all go to your thighs and butt! so EVIL~~~~~~~ i shld start climbing 14 flight of stairs to my house instead of taking the lifts already!

demsey road; korean bbq

left my office at 7 plus in the evening. FYI, i am paid to work till 6pm okay! but i dont mind la. just that the whole car mart feels so desserted la! so quiet, so dark!

 

 

 

 

 

Have always been a big fan of korean food.

 

 

A total of 10 side dishes were served. they were very different from places like the one at DXO, west coast high way and fareast. They served a total of 2 kinds of tofu, sashimi, jellyfish, kimchi, beansprout, mushroom, water bamboo and a few more. U must be daring to try how they prepare simple food like these which taste very unique =)

 

 

 

Bean paste soup as usual. very different from the few i tried. it was really bean paste soup la! normally, it's just the soup base that taste of bean paste, but for this, u can literally swallow the bean paste. haha. But i still prefer the one at DXO =)

more places to try though ^ ^

Icekimo @ Thomson Road


Finally i've met up with sivan

 

the gal that sees all side of me. the unglam, the whiny, the likes-to-zzz-in-class-yet-was-never-caught gal, the gal who shuts the cubicle door and refuses to come out gal...... the gal who called in at night, to announced that ive flunk my exams which made my heart skips a beat then...

 

 

short dinner we had, but we've updated one another, just the way we used to every morning while in secondary school!

 

 

love u babe. and we're gonna finish every single food stall along thomson road =)

All Hail to the Chocolate Queen!!!


         All Hail to Missy Chocolates!

 

 

(Warning: this is going to be an extremely tempting, long, and descriptive entry. if u hate chocolates, dont bother to continue finish reading the fattening post below)

 

To think I’ve yet to lay my hands on my sinful chocolate from Canele yesterday. And yes, your eyes are playing pranks on u. yes, chocolates again!

 

                   Four Seasons Hotel

 

 

Was told that you can’t choose your chocolates, because unlike chocolates shops we see outside, they usually display their selection of chocolates at the counter. For Four Seasons Hotel, they don’t. They received you order, then they start making you chocolates. Meaning you’ll have to wait for your chocolates to be freshly made, which takes up a couple of hours!!! But this also goes to show how freshly the chocolates were, total controlled QC la!

 

The first one I tried was the one with white chocolates coating on the top and bottom layer, infused with chocolate and mixture of hazelnut inbetween. I must say, for a non-nut lover like me can be smitten by how smooth the hazelnut can be la~ I bet hazelnut lover wld go crazy with this piece of chocolate =)

 

 

 

 

The second on e I tried was the leaf shaped chocolate. It was filled with something like cherry flavoured fillings. But I cant exactly tell what it is la. Wait till I try a few more first! Hahhaha. But, the outer chocolate layer was so beautifully done la. It didn’t crack like how chocolate coating usually does when u bite them. It’s not a hard layer, but a smooth, soft, dark chocolate mixture. Hands down! Perfect for people who likes chocolates that are not too bitter nor too sweet!

 

As for the last cube shaped chocolates, I’ve yet to try them though. BTW, I’m suffering from dry cough. Haha. And all the chocolates pilling in my hse is so  EFFECTIVE TOWARDS MY COUGH . not-going-to-help-me-in-recovering la. Hahaha. Blame it on I’ve got a sweet tooth and fetish for lovely looking things.=X

 

Lovely Canele Chocolates


  Missy Donuts   Missy Chocolates!

 

I think I should start changing my nick la! I’m so not surrounded by donuts these days but chocolates! More sinful la!

 

‘Door Gift’ from mr fireman when we went Canele. Very sweet for kristal fren. I was telling Sharon at the counter how lovely the chocolates were n asked if she’s gonna get me the lovely rose chocolate, cause it’s really very pretty la. I simply love pretty chocolates la!

As we went over to the cahier to settle out bill, mr fireman handed a carrier over to kristal. Turns out he prepares 3 boxes of chocolate for us la!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I must admit it was really so beautiful tt ive yet to lay my hands on them la. I just cant bear to eat pretty stuffs =)

 

 

DKS; Canele




DKS; dinner at canele

Firstly,

 

    WELCOME KRISTAL TO THE OL WORLD!!

 

*OL=Office lady


met my besties for dinner n canele.

 

 

BEWARE! This is going to be a rather long post with rather many pics. wahahaha!

lovely dinner. thanks to kristal's fren aka mr fireman.

 

 

 

 

Sandwiches for dinner. i gurantee it's so filling la! Dont underestimate the power of bread!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hazelnut. all time favourite. "layering" of the cake makes it not boring. soft, smooth yet crisp =) perfect for nut lovers

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cookies & Cream. Taste like a mixture of cookies n cream with cheesecake. looks like orea cheesecake though. as it taste like a mixture of cheesecake with cookies & cream, fusion of both taste didnt let any of them stands out.

 

 

 

 

 

my all time favourite. chocolate. with lotsa lotsa chocolate. one can nv finish the whole piece by themselves la. dark chip layer of chocolate on the top, with soft chocolate cake infuse inbetween. for ppl who like bitter chocolates =)

 

walked ard town. not much to shop though. by e time we had an enjoyable dinner. one surprise after another one. [*secret between we gals =) ] it was already 9 plus.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

trying to see who can be as bimbo  model-looking la!!!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The bottom line: best friends do not have to meet everyday, as long we have one another in our hearts =)

love u babes!

Ice Cube


located at opposite chomps (serangoon gardens)

headed to had ice cream with joyce, mr yang and alex. lovely cosy lil place. but the food was a lil disappointing. but i must it's a place like home =)

 

 

 

 

Crepes with almond and banana fillings. plus strawberry ice cream. a very different kind of strawberry ice cream. more milky. less strawberry. the fillings didnt taste very good wrap in the crepes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Waffle with bananas and ice cream, with topping of chocolate syrup. the waffle so not as spongy as i expected. more to the crisp side. i like my bananas to be very ripe. but they were not too. the ice cream were rather simply. just chocolate. i kind of prefer the gelare's one =)

Carpenters-Close to You.wma




Lovely song that once I used it as the background music for BEHIND THE SCENE clip in Basic Business Communication presentation.

Why do birds suddenly appear
Everytime you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.

Why do stars fall down from the sky
Every time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.

On the day that you were born
The angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moondust in your hair of gold
And starlight in your eyes of blue.

That is why all the girls (boys) in town
Follow you all around.
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.

Wahhhhhhhhhhh, close to you.
Wahhhhhhhhhhh, close to you.
Hahhhhhhhhhhh, close to you.
Lahhhhhhhhhhh, close to you.

Night Jogging

 

 

 

 

 

Night Jogging on a breezy day

 

i am not that discipline okays~ I must totally agree that the weather makes one wanna lie comfortably in their comfort zone. while waiting for my dinner to digest, i sat in front of the TV, watching mr & miss gorgeous from channel U (i think). my body started to slowly fit into the beanie cushion. but, my STRONG WILL mind tells me i have to drag my lazy bones out. if not i'll skip another week of night jogging =(

 

 

 

 

Contented and am glad that i decided to go for the run last night! Cool weather, perfect for run. But i only ran for 2km and stopped. didnt want to tired my legs for pointe shoe today =)
