New Year Resolutions

Gee..I'm right on time. I promised a friend that I'll post my new year resolutions on my blog, just to make it official. Been busy & tired the past week that I almost forgot to ponder & wonder for my resolutions. Hmm..let's see...

1. Find a job.
-Maybe a different industry, different environment, different people. I intend to step up my efforts in landing a new job next year. I hope I get THAT job though...

2. Healthier lifestyle
-Excercise, detox & eat healthily! I think I need to lose a couple of kilos or I won't look good on my 23rd year..

3. Upgrading works..
- Superhero pestering me to learn driving. I may need to take some courses too..if I have the time & money that is. Whatever it is, I must do some self upgrades..if i don't wanna be left out!

4. Bring out the Good in ME!
-I wanna be nicer, happier, more patient, independent, treat Superhero better, prettier...and the list goes on.. :)

Happy New Year everyone! May 2006 be a good one for everybody...

Dinner At The Bistro...

I felt like being a romantic girlfie today, so I planned to have a cosy dinner with Superhero. I read about this new dining place at Mount Faber, called Faber Hill Bistro at the Straits' Times. When I called up to make enquiries, the staff was like unsure of the menu & range of prices. My call was transfered a couple of times but anyways, decided to give it a try.

We took the cable car to Sentosa and then to Mount Faber. It's so nice to be up in the air for awhile, to calm our nerves down. Superhero was already stoning coz he was getting hungry! He didn't know where I was taking him of course...

The bistro's location is nice but before we even sat down, I was bitten by a mosquito. After we ordered, I was bitten twice again! Now, I get very irritated by mosquitoe bites & I hope it won't spoil my evening! Superhero ordered a Salmon Platter & I had Spaghetti Bolognaise. (When I'm in a new eating place, I'll go for the basics, you see). If you ask me, the food was just okay. Nothing out of the ordinary. I guess the staff are new coz they don't seem to be familiarised with the menu or the surroundings. I noticed that the patron was teaching the service staff on how to serve wine at another table! Goodness.. & we are paying for service charge worr...

Superhero & I finished off with a serving of tiramisu. Interesting one, coz we were expecting a cake kind but it came as a crunchy bowl-like cone with tiramisu flavoured ice cream & some sweet stuff in it. All for $13! Hmmm...it's hard to get a decent tiramisu up on a hill yah..

Well, go Mount Faber for the walk & if you feeling-feeling Genting Highland in Singapore. But other than that, skip the meals up there & just proceed to Liang Seah Hawker Centre for good Indian food instead...

Sleepless in CCK (Part 2)

Hmm..it's 3 am local time. I'm still stoned in front of my computer screen. I don't know what to think, what to feel or what to do. The best thing of all, I can't sleep! Even if I lie on my bed, I'll be tossing & turning so much till I see the so called stars sparkling from my celing.

Hmm.. I heard a story from a friend just now. She's sad. Work is already so tough & she's trying to spend time with her loved ones. But too bad, things are not exactly going her way. She thinks she's strong enough to pull this off, but in actual fact, she's only human. At the end of the day, she just want everyone to be happy.

Hmm.. I want eveyone to be happy too, really.

Still walking..but down the narrow corridor. We are good at "feeling-feeling". :) 

Walking up the long & winding pavement.. 

We and the Musical~

This week, myself and Superhero got 2 off days from our work! He's nice to plan to watch a musical, since we have not watched one together before. He chose " Oi! Sleeping Beauty! The Wake Up Musical". Honestly, I don't really enjoy musicals coz I don't like the idea of singing and acting at the same time but, this local production is very good! It's funny, witty and entertaining. Especially with the likes of Selena Tan, Pam Oei & Chua Enlai..they are hilarious. Superhero was laughing throughout the musical.. :)

After watching the musical, me and Superhero also got a lil artsy fartsy. Haha..just look at the pics above...

We watched our first musical together! 

Chilling with THE Music and THE Book.

Superhero has came back & he bought me a CD compilation & guess what..a BOOK! Goodness, it's been ages since I read a book until the fact that whenever I read one, I feel sleepy! Haha..but since he bought me one, i might as well cultivate reading again. It's "Memoirs of a Geisha". I can't wait for the movie too...

Sighs..Superhero lost his Ipod the other day! He left it in the cab. Whatsmore, I was the one who bought him the Ipod. We are both sad larr.. coz the Ipod means a lot to us. There were good memories & he loves the gadget.. :(

We went to Gramaphone just now, fishing for something cool to listen to. I decided on "Too Chilled". It's a compilation of those lounge/electronica kinda music. Superhero bought something downtempo, a mixed of fusion & oriental they call it. We thought it's really 2 for 1 price of a CD but soon, we realised that the 2 CDs in each compilation is the same! It's like, Disc 1 and Disc 2 contain the same songs but different remixes only!

Chey..our feelings are cheated AGAIN...

Sleepless in CCK

I don't think I can sleep properly tonight. It's not exactly about work. My day, though started off busy, it went okay still. What made me excited today was that someone is coming back home..after being away for only awhile. I thought we could meet up for a bit so I tried to finish my work as fast as I can. Unfortunately, things didn't turn out the way I hope it would be & I ended up walking around Bugis St by myself. Retail therapy helps I guess..

Honestly, I feel that what some people have thoughts about me is that I'm one who's bad, unreasonable and not understanding. I'm quite sarcastic at times, but my weakest point is that I'm sensitve. Kinda sad when I'm very sincere about things, the other party thinks that I'm just..paranoid? I don't ask a lot, I just want people to see where I'm coming from. But, well.. I often got misunderstood AGAIN. They think I'm forcing them to do things my way... I just hate THAT feeling! Why can't someone so close to me understand even if the whole World don't?

There's this song by Kasey Chambers:

"Am I not pretty enough? Is my heart too broken? Do I cry too much? Am I too outspoken?
Don't I make you laugh? Should I try it harder? Why do you see right through me?

I live, I breathe, I let it rain on me. I sleep, I wake, I try hard not to break. I crave, I love, I've waited long enough. I try as hard as I can".

You know, maybe I should just ignore what others think of me. It's sad, hurtful and frustrating, but I believe that I've done my best. But..hhmmm..sighs~

Boring Weekend....I NEED A HOLIDAY!

Yesterday was my off day..after working for almost 10 days consecutively. Superhero is not in town so I decided to spend quality time with myself. :) Went for a body massage & scrub with my best friend at a Balinese spa along Arab St. It was good..I mean..since when a massage isn't good, right? I wish I could just stay at the spa the whole day& pamper myself silly. Hehe..I also went to Raffles Hospital to do a chemical peel on my face before that. Now my face is red from the peeling & I can't wear make-up for a week! I look real ugly now..

Like I said, Superhero is not in town till next week. And he hasn't call me even once since he went away..Sad sad sad. Wonder what he's up to over there...

My favourite Assistant Manager is flying off to Japan tonight for a 6 month cross-exposure at one of the Hotels there. Aww...when's my turn?! I do not want to be stuck in Singapore forever! But I love my home. Keke~

Still actively plotting a short getaway early next year though.... :)
