.:: Mood ::. Sick *Cough Cough*

Life after I quit my job has still been as busy. Busy enjoying my life! Hee!

The weekend (17 Jun till 18 Jun) after I quit my job, I went on a short makan cum pigging out trip to Kluang with 14 members of the Salsalicious gang. Kluang is a small Johor hometown to my dear Salsamate, Natalia. Her family members & her has been kind enough to invite us over to bunk at her house. Many thanks to her dad and brother for driving us around, introducing all the delicious food which is so value for money. =) In fact, I only spend RM 70 for food, bowling and bus ticket home! *cheap cheap*

And I shall let the pictures tell the thousand words...


The 14 guys and gals!


GAV in the Train to Kluang!


Kluang Station


Finally we have reached..




The Kaya Toast at the train station taste great! So different from what we have in Singapore. Aww...


I wanted to snap Ada but things happen and instead I snap KC! Muahahaa...


Saturday Lunch - Indian Food



The view from the building of the bowling centre...
Talking about the bowling centre, it reminds me of the pain that I had when I broke my thumb nail while swinging the ball backwards. *ouch* T_T


The bustling street


The town


Going to have supper! Wee..


The stingray and sotong is so DARN nice! I am drooling as I blog this entry.. Damn!


Sunday Breakfast - Bak Kut Teh


Before we depart Nat's house! Twist Twist~! We are just so cute... Muahahaa~


GAEVA = GRET, ADA, EVELYN, VALERIE & ALVIN.. =)


Heading Home! The gang in the coach and we are in for some shopping in JB~

.............................................................................................................................

After a short trip, I decided to give my hair a trim and da.. ta... Me with my gong gong fringe! Ha~



On Saturday night (24 Jun), Ada, Gret, Ben , Alvin & Me had met up at Esplanade. There was a Fire performance by Firefly.




The lady in red looks quite scary! Eeee....



They are having a fight! COOL~!

Overall, the show was not too bad! It's like a fantasy. After the performance, we decided to head for some food at Glutton Bay. With our tummy filled, a chilled out would be the perfect event. So we headed to Can Cafe and had our R&R (Rest and Relax).




Wa... ZHUO YONG YOU BAO!


Oh I love this pic~ Hahaa...

Yesterday (25 Jun) was a day filled with anxiousness for Boon Cheong! The Salsalicious gang had headed to Sentosa for the Viva Sentosa! competition. Boon Cheong, Eddy and Luther were in for the Group finals and they got in for 2nd place. Nevertheless, in our heart we knew that they were meant for the 1st place! Hee...


When we arrive at Sentosa!


Whose leg are these? Hmm...





Salsa fanatics busy dancing away with the Salsa MUSIC....


Look at the cheeky look from Boon! Ha~


Congratulations!!!! A celebration..... laa.... la....laaaa.....

That's all for now... Shall go to bed as I have to wake up at 6am tml for a half day interviewee job!



Love all,
Val

.:: Mood ::. Up tight

It's already the mid of the week and definitely a week where I am so busy gathering all my information preparing for a proper handover for my outstanding issues. So that I can leave my job peacefully this Friday.... *stress*

Thinking back, I have been in EDS since 4 Oct 2004! Which sums up to 1 year 8 months plus.. I didn't expect myself to stay in this job for so long, but I was in my little comfort zone which causes me to stay put and could not bear to get out of it. Ooops!

I am going to miss :

- My Dear Lovely Colleagues
People like Serene, Sally, Eric, Felicia, Angie, Edmund, Ada, Eve and lots more~

- Lunch gatherings
Occasionally we will lunch-in or prepare Sandwich Parties, Jap Feast and it always turn out so sumptuous! *drools*

- Toilet Breaks with Ada
Yeah we always jio each other to toilet breaks.. Tsk Tsk~!

- Email chats with Edmund & Ada
Even though we sit like 5 steps away from each other, we normally chat using the email and it is so nice to chat with them, causing me to laugh stupidly in front of my computer. Bleah!

- The Cooler Machine
I love to drink Warm Water in the office as the air-con here is so cold and it is always so good to mix the hot and cold warm together without a fuss. =)

- Convenient Office Location
My office is situated in Ngee Ann City and it is just so convenient for me to meet up with my friends, to shop around during lunch breaks, to be one of the 1st few people to shop at a Mango Sale (Hee!), to grab any goodies at B2 when we have cravings!! Oh Man... This is so sad!

I am really going to miss working here. Life goes on and I will always remember the wonderful memories I have here. (^^)



Hmm.. I read this email about August Baby and I find it so true! Especially those in Italic. Hee~!
What do you think? Does it describe me as a August Baby! La...

.:: Mood ::. Bright

A brand new day for a brand new week filled with programs. =)



A review of the upcoming events :

Mon - Movie & Dinner with Tony

Tue - GSS Shopping with Ada & Gret (Pending)

Sat - Jie Mei outing for Jennifer's wedding. Oh, I am going to try out the gowns in the racks! Cause I am the TOU of the Jie Meis! Geez!

Sun - Salsa Lesson

I am packed! I need to tone down... Damn~ Too much of every thing is not good and I need to think about my pocket! Shits.. It seems like I have been playing so much that I don't know how to tone down.

Oh well, I just have to learn to do so since I am going to change my lifestyle .

If you have any part-time lobangs, please drop me a msg ya! Cause I am going to be out of job soon and I need income! Thanks in advance.. :D

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

Have been pondering about the sentence below, how true is it to you?
"Show your love like you have never love before..
It always hurts if it is not appreciated but at least you once showed your love & concern to him/her and will not regret it!"

Is it really better to show your love to someone without fearing being hurt? It's always difficult to put 100% in all relationships and when you put yourself all head into a relationship and if it does not work well. Its painful~! The impact will be great.. Causing one to fall into the pit of a well and some will never find their way up once again.

Still thinking away............... *day-dreaming*

Ah.. Got to get back to work! Oopz~

Love Love,
VaL

.:: Mood ::. Gratitude

TGIF!!! And I am filled with Gratitude on a Friday! (^^)v



I finally see sunshine with a big rainbow after a big downpour. It has definitely been a rough ride of a roller coaster within the past 16-17 days. Things was going up and down for me. At present, I have finally found a temporary solution and I must say that there are always people who are willing to help you even they are not your kin. Sometimes it is just so sad that your kin can't or perhaps don't even bother to give a helping hand when you need it most. =..(

Nevertheless, I must say a BIG THANK YOU to " Aunty Jacqualine ", my mum's good buddy!!! She has offered a helping hand and I truly appreciate it. With that, I promise my mum that I will study hard and get good results as a return of favour for her and myself. And I will cook a meal for Aunty Jac! Hehee.. Its been a long time since I last prepared a meal specially for someone le... Hopefully it turns out well! *geez*

Enough of my life revolving with answers and solutions for my financial prob! Shall blog about some recent events... =*)

I had quite a bit of fun for the past two weeks .


19 May 2006, Friday

I was out for dinner with Ada & Alvin at Marina Square's Changing Appetites. It was so "sweet" of them to actually give me a surprise treat for my admission to SIM. Thanks so much my dears! We are the AVA (Ada - Valerie - Alvin) team. Hee..




Me & Dear Ada!

After dinner, we headed to Settler's Cafe. It was my first visit there and did not expect anything from that place but it was a place filled with fun & laughter. People who have went there before would know what I meant because the games there can get you so worked up that you can laugh till you cry with all your friends! Muahahaaa....


Look at the funny look Alvin is giving while trying to get one of the stick out! Hur...


20 May 2006, Saturday

Went KTV with the Salsalicious Gang! Wow.. Wow... Wow.. that was my expression for the night! There were so many good singers in the room, (e.g. Kern Ahn, YY, Ada, George & KC)and they were like GE-SHENGs & GE-HOUs. Haha! ! La... La... La....




26 May 2006, Friday

Went Clubbing at MoMo & Pubbing at Bleu Liquid with Milly & Vivian. Come to think of it, these was the 1st time the 3 of us club together. It was always done in a big group, but it was still as fun with only the 3 of us and apparently we got kind of drunk that night. Poor Milly trying to take care of the 2 of us! Muahahaaa... *hugs to Milly*


27 May 2006, Saturday

My Intermediate 1 Salsa class has been changed from Sunday till Saturday and so I was there for the 3rd lesson. Oh man.. Should I continue my Intermediate 2 class in Caliente? Hmmm..

After that, the Salsalicious gang went cycling & blading at ECP. (^,^) Jonn was kind enough to lend me his blades and i was happily blading there! Laa.... La... La... but I was the slowest of them all and in order to catch up with the rest, I had to hitch lots of rides from those who were riding a bicycle. Hee... Still I fell down a couple of times and got myself a big blue black on my thigh! *pain* You must be thinking how the hell would I get a blue black on my thigh??? Yeah... I got it when I was hitching Alvin's bicycle. He was riding in quite a fast speed and when we went over this mini yet high bump, I lost my balance and went falling behind. As I was afraid to let go, my thigh was rubbing against the tyre! ! ! Alvin was too shock to react and I had to shout, "Please get the bike off me!" Hahaa..

Overall, I had lots of fun and I am going to blade this coming Sunday again. This time round, its with Milly and Vivian. *grin*



Alrighty shall stop here and may all have a great weekend yah! (o^.^o)

Smuackz & Love all,



VaL
