Australia 3 Japan 1 Watched this match together wif my cousins at a coffee shop nearby my house. It was my first time watchin a "live" match at a coffee shop. Could really feel the World Cup fever. Spectators were shouting "GOAL" when the striker made his shot, n they clapped whenever a goal was scored, regardless of which team did it. The japanese were sqift n cheap, but the aussies had strength n stamina, so they won the tug-of-war eventually. Enjoyed the match while sippin the cup of teh peng which the 5 of us ordered.
Brazil 1 Croatia 0 Watched this match in boredom. Didn't really pay attention to it though, watched the first half "live", disappointed when my bro told me tt they only scored 1 goal in the second half. Kaka scored, yesh! Later, my cousins commented abt Ronaldhino's superb dribblin skills, roberto carlos' speed when attackin by the flank, Cafu's physical fitness, as well as the obviously visible "spare tyre" on ronaldo.
Spain 4 Ukraine 0 Watched this match while havin dinner, cos' dinner started late. Nothin much to be said...
England 2 Trinidad & Tabago 0 Watched is awe as Crouch n Gerrard delivered a marvellous finish to secure victory for the englands, while chattin on the phone wif another fren. Haha, so engrossed tt I shouted GOOOAAAALLL into the receiver, oops. =X
Tt's all for now... World Cup Fever, it's comin to get ya. You can run, but you can't hide.
Done wif Basic Theory Test. Now onto Final Theory Test. I may be slow, but I am catching up. One step close to reaching my goal. The road ahead is tough. But I will never give up. Drive on.

World Cup 2006 Kick Off. Germany 4, Costa Rica 2... Germany advances!
My grandma treated my cousins, my bro n me for tim sum at Crystal Jade this afternoon. It was a nice meal, ate to my fill and the food was good. We ordered desserts like red bean with aloe vera in coconut milk, double-boiled egg white with milk n durian pudding. Guess we were eager to try the menu bah. Thank u so much grandma.
Went shoppin wif my elder cousin after the meal. Browsed through almost all the boutique shops in Parco n Seiyu. Next place we visited was ICON. Gosh! Wad a small place. One shop in particular caught our attention, HAUT. They import fashion n apparel from japan, korea n europe once a month. My cousin wanted to take the sports jacket for juz $29, but 2nd hand condition n stains made him change his mind. Another shop tt interested us was the Buddy Boutique. $25 bags up for grabs, usual $60-100. Phew! The bags dere were realli expensive! Prices range in the 3-digits.
While crossin the road frm parco to bugis village, Adeline called to me, cos' I didn't recognise her. Haha. Too bad we went opposite directions, so didn't stay around for small tok. My cousin brought me to this optical shop, where lowest prices guaranteed. Indeed, prices as low as $28-$38 for juz the frame, the "in" n stylish n fashionable ones. A little mishap occurred, my specs broke, so the shop helped me send it for repair. Relying on my other pair of specs now...
Imagine me n u dining together @ Crystal Jade Wee......

Hello everybody, it's time for another update! :)
Tok abit abt my part-time job. I worked 14 hours everyday for 4 days, 7 hours for 1 day, total 5 days. It was my most relaxin, most paid work ever! Thanks to Neo, who gav me this lobang while I was back in sch on CCN Day. Speakin of CCN Day, I spent half my pocket money that day solely on body art, had a glue tattoo, an airbrush tattoo, n 2 hennas. Lovely body art, on a not so lovely person, what a clash! Back to my job, it was to be stationed at the airport everyday to welcome delegates who r comin for the 11th World HR Congress, an event hosted in Singapore, by Singapore HR Institute. Didn't knoe that the institute was located @ Tekka Mall until the day I went dere with Neo n frens for a short briefin.
The work was plain borin, so I had to entertain myself. Fortunately, I got on quite well with my co-workers. I did the mornin shift on sat, while I worked double shifts frm mon-wed. I wished that I could join kazumi's grp on Sun, cos' dere were 3 of them, but I still managed to find another kinda FUn with Elyn n Anita frm NP. I oso wished I went wif kazumi they all to Popeye after sun's afternoon shift, but I didn't. My mind said Yes, but my wallet said No. Lols! Ah Boon was good company mon-wed, I enjoyed spendin the mornin shift with him. He brought my to the airport staff canteen @ Terminal 2 where the atmosphere was local n dere was a variety of food to choose frm, spoilt for choice.
Was asked by Eric Lai to support him in a band concert. He told me he was emceeing for the night. I tried to ask my frens to go, unfortunately they were either not interested or they were workin. :x So on fri, I went for the concert. Did not really enjoy the concert la, although it was a showcase of many talents, from solo clarinetist to special arranged samba drums performance to Hot Latin music. Aureus Experentia XII, that was the name of the concert, a concert by nyjc band. Eric nva failed to tickle my funny bones whenever he opened his mouth. First was the voiceover, aHem.."Ladies & Gentlemen, kindly switch off or put all ur mobile phones to silent mode. The concert is about to start soon" Another reason was because of his amusing antics and expression, which made me look forward to his appearance at the end of every piece. There were 2 emcees that night, both did a good job, kudos to them.
Being the gentlemen that he always was, Eric insisted on sending the girls home after the concert, so he asked me to tag along in the cab. The last stop was Bishan. Poor Eric, he was famished by the time the cab was dere, so we decided to juz alight n eat ard that area. Arghhh, dere goes my chance of visitin my fren at bugis Junction... :x We makan, sat n chilled ard until 2am, den we went home separately.
On sat, went to Sijori Resort for a nite's stay. Nope, I didn't enjoy the sun, nor the beach nor the strolls, they were plain dull n borin, except for the bondin I had wif my relatives. The night was spent playin PS2, till abt 5 in the morning.
Woke up at 11am, time for check-out frm the resort. Gosh, look at the time! I thought I was gg to b late for the TPGA Bowling Competition! Frantically, I packed my stuff, boarded the coach to Harbourfront Centre n rushed to Katong Shopping Centre in a cab juz in time for the competition to commence. Pity I missed the warm-up pins. I can't bowl for nut's sake! Yesh, I admit it! I swear I would b payin for every game if anyone were to play loser punch rounds against me. I really think I am that bad. My target next time is to break the 100 pin mark every game. Think you guys juz hav guessed it by now, I ended up in the xxth position. Wow! I was even "awarded" the Best Sportsmenship Prize. What an encouragement!
I feel so useless. Want to help U in business finance, but I hav simply forgotten everythin I learnt b4. Now wanna tutor oso cannot. What a bum I am.
