Prize Stage: UFO Catchers

Monday, June 07, 2010 @ 1:08 AM


::1st June 10::

A movie outing with my movie buddy, WenJie. We decided to watch "Abandoned", a Cathay exclusive; and later head down to Marina Square for Prize Stage :D

Photobucket
Nice pop-out standee they've got there of Despicable Me!

Photobucket
Tickets and snacks :3

& sooo...

After the movie, we went down to Marine Square for Prize Stage! We pretty much got bored of the small Prize Stage at Plaza Singapura; that's why WenJie wanted to go to the bigger one at Marina Square. Changed a few notes to coins and we started to feed the machines xD

We tried our luck for one of those small scoping UFO catchers (those usually have small plushies keychains, miscellaneous items, sweets). The first few times we caught naught *RAGE*. Apparently there was a technical problem on the other side of the machine, the technician/Prize Stage guy had to lift up the dome cover and fix whatever was the problem there.

An idea suddenly struck me :P I immediately put my hand into to the machine where the cover is slightly lifted up from there and took two small plushies and placed them on the moving platform. WenJie saw what I was doing and immediately put in coins so that the door flap will open. Thus the two plushies came tumbling down into the chute; followed by a small clover thing (@.@) I have totally no idea what was that. Later I approached the guy to ask whether I can exchange the plushies with the other plushies inside; especially the gloomy panda ones *_* And also to trade the clover thing with a Kabibara keychain~ All of our requests were granted! Awesome~ ;)

Afterward, we went to Pasta de Waraku for some late lunch :)

Cameras~

Photobucket
Here are our loots xD!
Gloomy Pandas~ ♥♥♥

Photobucket
Rawr~♥

Photobucket
The Kabibara keychain that I've traded in with a useless clover thing :D

Photobucket
My delicious orders :3
I know... Look at all the eggs and bacons in both pasta!

Photobucket
Bill please :P

And then, we went back to Prize Stage to continue feeding coins to different UFO catchers; desperately trying our luck xD Of course, the rabbit won't bang its head twice on the tree :( Finally WenJie managed to catch a Mr. M figurine (well, that's what I have named it) and a Minnie Mouse plushie keychain.

Photobucket
Trying!!! (@.@)

Photobucket
Mr. M figurine and Minnie Mouse :)

And how did I get the black nyanko?

There's this old woman who was playing the catching station beside us. She's a professional at it! She kept catching toys and toys and toys; and finally she even hit the jackpot prize, which was a super gigantic plushie! She spoke to us and told us that she collected all the jackpot prizes that she has almost all of them already! She's always coming back to win those new jackpot prizes as well. When she was about to leave, she gave me pick one of the small plushies :) And I picked the black nyanko :D Thanks T.T~

Photobucket
♥ this super gigantic Domo-kun~ :)

Later on, I have to leave to meet my parents. They were going to fetch my brother, Damien and me to the SAF Yacht Club. My aunt is holding some sort of chalet over there. So we just go there to join in the fun. Moreover, I have not been to such places before :D Thumbs up for new places to explore! (^_^)b

Photobucket
Puking fishes [y/n]? :D

Photobucket
And yes! There were lots and lots of yachts!
Rows and rows of them!
Too bad I didn't got a chance to ride in one. But I think I will puke like the fishes (@.@)

Photobucket
Shared a plate of Fish n Chips with my mama for dinner...
was still full from all the pasta of Waraku T.T~

After dinner, we went for a stroll around the club and head up to the rooms afterward. Apparently they have karaoke rooms as well! But I didn't get to try it :(

Photobucket
Big crabs, blue crabs.
Crabs comparing to the size of an ATM card! D:

My aunts decided to go for a dip in the pool and they asked me along. Apparently I wasn't prepared for such activity :\ Thus, no extra clothes or swim costume. One of my aunts lent me her spare clothes and I changed into them. I had to secure the clothes with rubbers as they were too loose (@.@) And so, we went to the jacuzzi pool to relax. My parents were playing mahjong with my grandparents. Damien was playing billiard/pool (you know what? I don't know the differences between them!) with my cousin, Joel. And I spotted the constellation of Scorpio!~ xD

When it was getting pretty cold, all of us went up to the rooms to shelter from the cold wind :X I went to take a shower before changing back to my own clothes. We gathered in the other room, where there's no mahjong playing, and ate jellybeans and cheese cake. The cheese cake bought by Jorina was absolutely horrible! I have never in my life tasted such horrible cheese cake :(

Photobucket
Ew~ :(

My aunt wanted Damien, Joel and me to stay over night at the chalet. But we didn't want to. I already have promised to meet up with Moo at Ikea the next day. So I politely declined the offer. Damien and Joel didn't want to stay either. Sorry 二姑! O.Q

After the mahjong game was over, my parents came over to the other room and we all went home :) But seriously, if given another chance to stay there for chalet, I would give it a go. And maybe I could even get to ride in a yacht! xD My wishful thinking!

Fragments of March

Wednesday, March 31, 2010 @ 2:20 AM


Finally reaching the final post of March :)
April posts soon!!! Woohoo!
Ehto... I have completely forgotten about my photoshoot post! D:
Hehe, there's always next time to blog about it :X
Mini posts time! :D


::2nd Mar 10::
ahsie asked me out for lunch with her friend, Hweehsia. And I had to travel all the way to Tampines. Imagine traveling all the way to Tampines for lunch and then I have to go back to Great World City for work?! Sounds crazy; but I did that :\ The reason was I have not seen ashie for a long long long timeeee T.T~ So once in a blue moon, this is okay :)

Photobucket
The place I had lunch at.
& it's halal!~

Photobucket
My curry katsu bento set +
the egg mayo inari sushi I picked from the sushi conveyor belt :3
I gave my orange slices away :\ & the green tea was uber bitter D:
$9.30 payment


::3rd Mar 10::
I went out for lunch again with my friends. But this time it's with Sally, Yokie and Anson. A "farewell" lunch meet up for Yokie who is going into the army. Last time to see him with his hair xD So glad to make friends with someone else who like anime as well. Nice meeting you, Anson :)

Photobucket
Yes, it's another restaurant :(
With all these eating of good food certainly does some damage to my wallet Dx

Photobucket
Cheese Chicken Fillet :3

Photobucket
Yokie, Anson, Sally & me! :)

The next day, I collected my clothes I ordered online from XueNi. It's the day that I too exchanged my Singapore dollars to Thailand bahts!

Photobucket
Heh, all checkered :D


::6th Mar 10::
I went to my youngest brother's Speech Day event at Henderson Secondary School. It has been super long since I last went back to my secondary school. Anyway, the purpose was to see Damien receiving his award. Apparently, he did really well for his studies :D

Photobucket

Photobucket
My brother; top in combined humanities, combined science,
first in class and first in standard :D

I didn't know the Speech Day was so boring D: I have never attended one before because I'm usually part of the choir performance during the event. I didn't know that the uniform groups march parade was so horrible. No one even know what's going on outside. No speakers. The camera view of it was terrible.

Meh, the school principal was no longer Mrs. Yeo anymore :( This new principal (I don't even know what's his name D:), I didn't like him very much. He talks too much and he has the tendency to increase his volume suddenly when he's speaking :\ So funny to see students dozing off and then jerking up when he suddenly spoke loudly. His annual report speech was about two hours long. It was effing boring and no one was even paying any attention to him at all...

Photobucket
The new principal and Guest-of-Honour; Mr Lim Cher Yam.
So funny to see the principal with his shirt tucked out like that :X He's doing it on purpose though!

After all these boring speeches, it was the prize giving ceremony! :D
*gets ready camera*



Photobucket

Photobucket
His super awesome trophy!

My parents and I decided to leave the place after the ceremony; and we called Damien out too so we could take pictures with him :X & there was no reason for staying on any longer xD

Photobucket

Moreover, I have to get home because Joshua and Edmund will be coming to my house later. Joshua, to help me in formating my desktop and Edmund, to use my laptop for his school assignments.

Photobucket

Photobucket
P/S: Anyone missed the school canteen? :3

::15th Mar 10::
Went all the way to Jurong there for a job interview at Resort World HQ. Sadly, I have once again failed another interview. After the interview, I had to walk through a community centre to get to my bus stop. &&& the community centre has a small aviary! It was so awesome; I really like those yipyips :D Spent some time trying to take pictures of them :X And then I took a bus to meet Rommel at Lucky Plaza; accompanying him to get his SD memory card :)

Photobucket
All the different coloured yipyips! :D
Me likey :3


::19th Mar 10::
Went to Johor Bahru; Malaysia with my mama and aunt :) Every friday is like a shopping day for us :D But now, I started working on fridays... So there's no more of such shopping trips for me anymore :(

Photobucket
On the bus going over the Causeway~

Photobucket
My mama and me! :D
I accidentally sent out two text messages when
my handphone is still in "MY MAXIS" mode :\
A freaking 61cents per message! Dx

Photobucket
Lunch + delicious cake from Secret Recipe :3

Photobucket
BUTTERSCOTCH BREAD!
Only you can find this flavour there in Malaysia :(
(Although Singapore recently have the butterscotch flavour by Bonjour bread brand,
but it doesn't taste as good and it's a lot more expensive)


Photobucket
Wore my purple contact lens during one of the shopping trips :)


::27th Mar 10::
Met with Johnatton at Bugis to collect his card games and we went to GV Marina to catch a movie; Professor Layton And The Eternal Diva. The movie was okay-ish. How to train your dragon is still the #1 movie of the month for me :)

Next, I met up with XueNi and we began our job hunt at the JobsDB Fair @ Suntec Conventional Hall!! Firstly, we registered ourselves at the counter and obtained a personal barcode. Next, we proceeded up to the 6th floor to submit our resume by scanning it into the system. When that was done, we were given a green sticker each to show that we have submitted our resume. & finally, we can properly start our job hunt :)

The proper procedure was to approach every booth to find out about their jobs; and then if we are interested in it, we have to scan our barcode to submit our resume to the individual company there. However, XueNi and I discovered a much simpler and lazier way of applying for jobs. All we have to do is walked up to the row of computers placed at the sides and start searching for whatever jobs you are interested and applied to them immediately; with no hassle! :D Hopefully, those companies would reply to us soon... or not :\

Later, we went to Kenny Rogers for our lunch/dinner.
(they should really invent a word for that since there's already a word called "brunch" which is breakfast/lunch...)

Photobucket

After taking such a effing long time trying to decide on what to eat, we finally chose the one-quarter chicken with two side dishes @.@

Photobucket
Appetizer: Corn Muffins
Drinks: Snapple (Kiwi Strawberry & Mango Madness)
Sides: Cheese Macaroni and Potato Salad

I really didn't expect that it would be that filling! I couldn't even eat finish anything. I was really, really, extremely bloated to the extend that I felt like puking :\ And yes, I didn't finish my food :( Such a waste...

Afterward, we went for a stroll about the shopping mall of Suntec and not surprising, we got lured in by the gachapon machines :X XueNi saw this cute Naruto gachapon series and she wanted the Itachi one. Well, I don't mind the Sasuke one though but I don't have that strong urge in getting it like I tried for the Dragonball one for Vegeta. Damn you, Majin Buu!! :@

Photobucket
Naruto paku paku series.
There's Naruto, Kakashi, Sasuke, Itachi and Yondaime.

She tried and she got Naruto instead :( XueNi was hesitating whether to give her luck a second chance but a little girl came and gachapon. She wanted Naruto but she received a green capsule. Pretty interesting that now all the gachapon balls are like colour code for each item in the gachapon machine. The little girl left without checking what she had gotten. We were curious so we peeped into the machine and realized that green capsule balls contain all the Itachis D: It was a horror to us. If only, she didn't hesitate :(

XueNi didn't really want to give up so she tried again and again and again. She gotten Naruto again, Sasuke, Sasuke again, Yondaime, Kakashi and Yondaime again. It was such a horrifying sight that I couldn't bear to watch. Mind you that each capsule cost $3. And she already got 4/5 of the charas. Only left with Itachi. With her last $3, she gachapon-ed for the final time. This time she got.... ITACHI!!! We were very happy :) Moreover, she has the full set now! xD

Photobucket

Photobucket
I bought her extra Sasuke and Naruto at $2 each :X

Just wanna post some of my gachapons I turn out last time but didn't have chance to post it :(

Photobucket
My favourite kinbaku mushroom with different angle shots :) Smexy~

Photobucket
Shugo Chara pendant stuffs. I wanted the one with wings :(


::EXTRAS::

Photobucket
Cosca was founded :)
Some temporary logo thingy I created for the team.

Photobucket
My updated nail polish collection xD


With all the happy stuffs done, time to reveal about the sad stuff :(
Dodo the lutino cockatiel has passed away... Ever since that hole incident (Click here to read about it), Dodo has been very weak and couldn't fly at all due to its crop. Anyway, it has finally moved on after suffering for so long :( Here are some last pictures of it.

Photobucket
Dodo R.I.P


And that's the end of March mini posts...

♪ I'm not a princess, this ain't a fairy tale
I'm not the one you'll sweep off her feet
Lead her up the stairwell ♫

Fragments of February

Saturday, February 27, 2010 @ 3:24 AM


time for my usual mini posts that don't deserve a whole post on itself :)

::2nd Feb 10::
Movie marathon again for me :) After watching Law Abiding Citizen @ GV Grand, I made my way down to Plaza Singapura to meet up with Augusta, Edmund, Rebecca, Jamaica and Franzbeth. I was the first one there so I went to play a lil' jubeat :P After that, we went to GV Plaza to purchase Hachiko tickets, all using complimentary passes for 13 tickets! Why so many? Because Jamaica and Franzbeth brought their friends along~

Photobucket

The movie was sad, but not very sad to me. However Edmund was crying really terribly, with puffy red eyes and sobbing sounds :( Hey, I did cry too! But just not a lot :X Anyway, for dinner, Jamaica, Franzbeth and their friends ate at the food court. Augusta, Edmund, Rebecca and I were deciding what good food to eat! Man, I super love good food :) After wandering the entire shopping centre, we finally decided on Ajisen Ramen. And we... went home after that :P

Photobucket

Photobucket
My orders!~ Bacon ramen + tempura ebi + ice lemon tea :)

Photobucket
Receipt :D


::4th Feb 10::
Went to watch 20th Century Boys -part3- with ahsie! My treat D: Anyway, we have been waiting for this final installation since last year!! And, and, and the ending was amazing. I love the sudden twist in the end. Excellent, power, love it! ♥!!~

Photobucket
♥ tomodachi~


::7th Feb 10::
Yoga lessons in the afternoon with Lisa, JC and XueNi. After that, XueNi and I went walk-walk on the streets of Orchard Road! Our main objective was to get our ears pierced! :D We went to a shop at Wisma Atrium first, but it was too expensive :\ Then I suddenly remembered I did my 2nd piercing at a shop in The Cathay. So we walked all the way there. Stopping by at various shops to do window shopping and of course, the Toy Outpost at Plaza Singapura. That shop really made us spend our money everytime we enter Dx

Photobucket
I bought Domo-kun &
XueNi bought Mr. Panda xD

Finally, we made our way to the Cathay and the shop I went to do my piercing two years ago is still there! :D We both decided to do a cartilage ear piercing for $5. I was really really scared that it will hurt like fucking bad. So XueNi went first instead of me :X When my turn came and went, I realized it didn't hurt as much as my 2nd piercing! I was glad :) I kinda enjoyed the throbbing sensation :D And yay! I have done my 3rd piercing xD

Photobucket
I like my cartilage ear piercing!! :D
Sweet! ♥

After that, we tried to take a bus to Bukit Merah but we didn't realize we were going in the wrong direction until halfway through the journey! D: We alighted somewhere near Upper Thomson Road and crossed the road and took the bus back :( WHAT A HUGE WASTE OF TIME! Went to the community centre... luckily it wasn't close! We signed up for the Passion card membership and also some classes. Crochet & Knitting for both of us and XueNi registered for elementary guitar lessons as well :P And that completed our super long day!~

Photobucket
Free Fila sport bag that comes along with the Passion card membership :D
WOOHOO! I finally going to learn how to knit!!!!


This is not part of any specific date...
Lastly, presenting to you...

Photobucket
Merbid! :D
My favourite lost & found item at GV Grand xD
For some reason, Edmund hates Merbid a lot :(
Probably he finds it disturbing :X


Ever heard of the illness called, "Bored to Death"?
I'm suffering from it right now. And there is no cure..
