Resort @ Hall 1

My favourite haunt in NIE - Joani's room in Hall 1. Hall 1 is slowly becoming my new residence in NIE! :) These days, I spent more time in her room than in mine for reasons that I don't which to keep mentioning. Sigh.

Oh and by the way, I'm now in her hall. Staying overnight.

Aidah, Joani & myself have been spending incredibly alot of time together in the last few weeks since school started. I guess its because we all know that in a few weeks time, we won't be seeing one another in NIE campus for a good 10 weeks ( Addie & Joani off for their practicuum). So we are trying real hard to make whatever time we have left memorable. EEEksss...sounds as though we are some lovers parting! But honestly, its going to be real 'quiet' on my end when those 2 crankie nuts leave. I won't know who to jio for dinner or jalan jalaning at JP anymore. Also, no more homecook food by Joani Lim! Not looking forward to those days man.

As always, Joani & myself will attempt to do some mini groceries shopping when we meet up and here's what we got tonight:

1. Ben & Jerry's Cookie n Dough ice-cream
2. Peel Fresh Orange Juice
3. Biscuits/Snacks
4. Homestyle 2-bite oatmeal raisin, cinnamon rolls and macaroons. (wanted the brownies but no stock!)


Our once-in-a-while shopping at Hall 2's minimart is somewhat our attempt to just relieve our boredom of being in hall and just getting out of our rooms to take in some fresh air. We never fail to be happy with our stash from the brief mini-marting and we sure derive pleasure in filling up our cupboards with food and yes...VCDs & DVDs too!

Wanting to write more but brain protesting. Feeling totally worn out and I cannot wait for the CNY break! Timely respite. So need it man!

Sitting down in front of the computer and listening to 'All The Earth' for the 10th time. Its Anais's off day and we have been trying to upload our pictures onto Facebook. I've got my Day 1 up but poor Ana, still trying to get hers up! Have been in Cambodia for 5 days and returning to Singapore on thursday. Previously, time seem to snail by but as I browsed through the pictures taken of the past few days, I realised that its not that slow after all. Coming to Cambodia this time was different. Was supposed to lead a team to LIA but ended up not because of lack of preparation time and inadequate response. Anyhow, I just felt I should make a personal trip up to see for myself the work at LIA and sense what God is doing in this land. Prior to the trip, I've been reading about Cambodia's news and they just appear everyday in the papers. Well it can't be more clear than this so I went. Followed Anais as she goes to and fro the b oys' & girls' home to t

Breather

Back from a Sec 3 level camp in JB, Tanjung Piai. Thought I could have the week's off to clear my brain's cache and prepare my lesson plans but alas...I'm down for ODAC camp and sec 4s' oral exam mock practice! When can I have my breather???? Sometimes I wonder whether returning to a familiar place is good for me after all. I'm like on the 'Wanted' list for this committee, that committee, this event, that event etc. Not that I'm popular or high-in-demand, its just that I'm nicely available. I'm not usually mindful of taking on responsibilities. Its just that during these 10 weeks, I reckon is a crucial component of my NIE understudy and I am not wanting to settle for something less in my planning (although i really hate lesson plannings!). But I'm so stretched! I feel like screaming: " GIVE ME MY SPACE!" To say the least, I'm feeling stressed. Most unfortunately, I'm not given the option to say 'No'. Not until I get

Eat....Laugh....Be Merry!

Anais and myself finally satisfied our craving for chilli crab...after 2 weeks! YESSSSSSSSSSHHHHHHH.........:) happy happy! Together with Ben, Brian and my sis, we headed to Sembawang to indulge in some seafood delicacies that included huge cereal prawns and stingray. It was also a form of celebration for Anais who graduated not too long ago! You bet we were so stuffed after that! Anais still wanted ice-cream after the meal but we were already max. out in terms of stomach's space and capacity. Yummy food was of course the highlight but what was more memorable was the company. First time hanging out with Ben and Brian and it turned out to be a hilarious time! Good food eaten with 'happening' people makes it even more tasty. I treasured this time of fellowshipping as I got to see a different side of people and getting to know them better. More of such makan sessions is good for bonding! Singaporean leh..:) From left: Ben, Jasmine (sis), me, Anais and Brian Happy we went, tota
