Our 2nd Anniversary + My B'dae

SAKURA! We had celebrated our 2yr2days Anniversary with my birthday yesterday at their outlet in Jurong West Sports & Recreation Center near Pioneer MRT.

There was variety of foods. Wanted to get taste every foods...but didn't fulfill. Too many to have and my poor little stomach was full till the top. Miss the foods there...the sashimi, otah, scallop...etc. Thus, they had good service. The staffs greet you when you step in their restaurant and when you leaving. Thumb up!

Nice evening and wonderful meal.

Time: 10:00am - 8:00pm
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Recently, I went to this exhibition at the National Museum of Singapore with my BF. He yearned for it, since he saw the article on a magazine.

It is a exhibition of carrier bags in Singapore from the 1950s to the 1980s which paper bags were first made for provision shops. You are able to find some bags with products that have last till today.








Bag from the past...








Series of paper bags
:)













Robinson shopping bag @ 1967. It is one of the oldest store in Singapore.










Bata, another old brand that still survive in Singapore. The cartoon look cute 2...













Cold Storage was established in 1903. It is the oldest supermarket with more than 100years here. All this while, I thought that NTUC Fairprice was the first supermaket to be setup.












Is milo a Tonic Food Drink??









Lin Zhi Yuan is not the Lin Chee Guan? At first I thought is the 1 selling Bak Kwa. :P








Cute little bady. Wondering how does he look like now?

Ordering Bak Kwa (BBQ Pork)


Hei everybody. It Lanur New Year soon...4 more weeks ahead. I'm looking toward this festival where I could earn$$ :) 恭喜发财,红包拿来! Thus, I'm drooling for those delicious delicacies like Bak Kwa. 哦! 我的口水流出来了啦!

Where do you all usually buy the ba kwa from? BEE CHENG HIANG? FRANGRANCE? Lin Zhi Yuan? Or some other brands?

However, I did some research...cause my BF need to buy some as a CNY gift for my family. Hope we could buy now and collect when CNY is near. Therefore, I went to Chinatown to shop with my BF. Most Bak Kwa store does not have any promotion or offer for CNY, cause that the only period which they could earn themselves a wealth. And sometime qoute higher then the usual price...

We searched around and still find that Frangrance has the best offer. Below is their price for Sliced Tender BBQ Pork 切片软肉干(they said this is their best seller):

Collection Date: Unit: Price (usual price $45):
Before 1/2/2010 1kg $36
Before 5/2/2010 1kg $38
Before 9/2/2010 1kg $40

* Minimum purchase of 500g.
* With purchase of 1kg, a box(to store your ba kwa) will be given for free.

What the F!

Wao...today get to wait up @ 7.30am. AM! Prepared and took a bus to join Peanut for a run in the morning.

Reach @ 8.20am, call him through mobile...but no one picked up. Then after a few dialed, I decided to call his house number. However, I let it rang for a seconds, as I'm afraid that his parents would disturb.

Waited...yet he was still in his BEAUTY SLEEP! Argh...you got to get it from ME!

Then, I headed to the market nearby for breakfast. I wanted to have a run to shake of some fats, end up gaining calories. :( Call again...doo doo...

At 9.30AM, I held on to my phone...then it rang. I accidently pressed the "answer" button. Why was it an ACCIDENT? Cause initially I planned to reject/ignore to punish him.

And in the end, I forgave him caused he gave me a pathetic look and apologise to me..."I'm so sorry. What can I do to make you forgive me?" 心脏太软,心脏太软...獨自一個人流淚到天亮

p/s: Pls switch on your phone. Choose ringtone mode!

Last semester of his

Every Fri was my most wonderful day that I have been waiting for. Cause it is the "most busy" day of the week & the weekend is on tommorrow.

Today was Peanut's last semester & last paper. Do not dare to disturb him during this weeks...but...can't stop myself. I did call him a few times @ night for few mins only.

Human are so weird?
Miss him and called him. But just a few minutes of chatting, and we were unable to find a topic to continue our conversation. Weird people! Sometime, hugging is a better communication. 大家一起抱抱!

This gave me the feeling that we are not compatible, are we? Then why we become a muteness just after minutes of talks? Is there something wrong with our relationship? Should couples have the same interest to communicate? Ai...really don't know! (Dum it!)

Anyway,I'm meeting him later @ night for dinner :)

Citibank Tap-and-Save Debit Card

Hi, I had recently applied for the citibank tap-and-save card for its benefits...cash rebate of 2% for transport rides and 1% for any merchants that accepts signature-based visa.

However, I got myself into alot of trouble by getting this...真是自找麻烦。Cause I wanted to change the auto-top-up amount from $30 to $50 instead. By changing a higher amount, I get higher rebate after deducting the convience fee(25cents).
[(2% X $30)-$0.25] = $0.35 / [(2% X $50)-$0.25] = $0.75

HOHO...叫我省钱公主 :P

Let me tell you the confusing process that I went through...

First, I call the Ezlink to enquire on how to change. Then the staff told me I had to deactivate the auto-top-up first, then after 10days, go to online to reapply first. http://www.ezlink.com.sg/consumer/consumer_auto2.jsp. But maybe the lady do not know that the card I is a debit card that couldn't access online.

Therefore, I waited for a few days...and I call again to check if I could reapply.

Next, another staff from Ezlink told me that I couldn't apply through online and could only do manually filling up a form and sent back. So I was confused. I call Citibank hotline to check if they know the process. Then customer servicer asked me to go to Ezlink website to download the form http://www.ezlink.com.sg/consumer/consumer_giro2.jsp. But I told them it was for DBS/POSB bank only, where bank code had been written on the form. Then we chit chat a while and come to a conclusion. She would call the Ezlink and contact me again.

Then I didn't receive any reply...

So I call again, the other staff from Ezlink hotline told me I have to get the form from Translink Ticket Office which they did not have it. So I just consult the Citibank staff counter (as both were near each other), then I finally get the form that I'm been looking for. 为了一张纸, 费尽口水

Conclusion, check directly with the staffs @ the counter. They might know even more then those hotlines. If not, then call...

By the way, the manual form (get from the Citibank counter or call Ezlink hotline to sent through email) was not the Giro form. It was link to your debit card and doesn't cost any application fee (the staff from Ezlink hotline told me). As for Giro, the Ezlink will be charging $1.50 application fee from 26-Feb-2010.

Last day of 2009...Welcome Twenty-Ten

Yesterday was the last day of 2009, 31/12/2009. Everyone was in holiday mood, but we still have to work :( However, it is singlang (free).

After work, we (Felicia, Peanut and I) went to have dinner at Bugis Mac. Wao...so crowded. Then filling up our stomach, there still 2hrs till our group gathering. Therefore, we went shopping @ Bugis.

Haha...I manage to hold my desire on buying. But in the end, my friend spent near to 100 bucks for clothing. 对不起你!

Below were some pictures took on that day...
