Strawberry Cream and Scones
The last time I went down to Singapore I met up with jen, regine, xin ling and andre at Tea Party, and it was open! (They were at least 3 times that I went there and it was closed)
Anyways, jen ordered this scone and it came with strawberry cream and it was soo good. The scone was piping hot and combined with the chilled (sweet) strawberry cream, it was makes-you-salivate-to-think-of-it. Like really really good.
So when my sis Twink brought me to camerons to stay, I wanted to have scones and strawberry cream. Smokehouse is too expensive, and the tea at the hotel we were staying at was RM 55. Heh no. So I checked online and ppl were raving about this T cafe. So I was quite adamant about going there even though both of us were very full. But, it was not meant to be as we couldnt find it. I'm sure I saw it on the way up, but we practically drove all the way down and still couldn't find it.:(
But but my dear sister Twink promised me she'd bake some for me and she did:)

Driving instructors
Yahooo!
Done with 5 +6 hours of listening to lectures taught in malay thathavenopausesinbetween words.
Gosh, how am I to survive(work) in this country. I mean I can listen all right, but then when I speak, I can't, and when I hear some Chinese speak malay, I cringe at their accent, and makes me want to shut up cos i'd sound worse.
The lecturer asks me a question, I freeze, smile, wondering what he really is asking, and then he says somethingallstringedtogether and then the class laugh and I laugh too but I have no idea what I'm laughing for. But that was just that lecturer. The rest I had were ok. I just ignore the filler words and pick on the keywords to get the meaning.
Met some pretty interesting characters.
This girl, whom I was quite irratated with cos she was treating the theory test like SPM, you know super worried-enthu kind, and she really looks like meicen(!). And turns out, she IS from China, but she's 30 yrs old with a 2 yr old boy!
I seriously thought she was 18 cos she was dressed like a 14 yr old, but then to think of it, it is the style of some Chinese, like some Chinese scholars. But even though her super gan joing about stuff, and not funny jokes, she was my lifesaver cos if not I'll be super lonely. Even though there were many like that, but today was a looong day and I'm glad not to be alone again.
Then there was this malay woman, quite old also, and ask a lot of questions. -_- about the engine and stuff. I guess the older you get the more ganjiong one gets?
And then there was a boy who works at a bread factory. Jolts you back to reality I guess.
So next up: Driving in small cars Kancils (in english-Mousedeer) with no air-con in the hot hot hot and humid, and polluted air.
Sure builds character.

Ahhrrmm..
About not going to the US to study,
i've typed like 3, 4 diff posts, and i've come to so many varying conclusions on this.
Seems like I've screwed myself over. I wish I had a shrink to tell me who I am, what I want, What I need... cos all I know is,
I don't give much about important things, all I care about is watching CSI:NY.
i'm going to be killed for this, but I can't help it.
No wait, I can;t say that. SAying I can;t is a lousy excuse.
Ok, let's try thinking about what's important.
Hmm yes. Ok. I'll let you know whether there're any changes.

WOWWEE!
Haha I googled the username is use frequently, you know being paranoid and all,
aaaand, I found out, someone had actually favourited not one, but TWO (:D) of my photos!
Now that flickr account is a real embarrassment cos I just dump photos in there, not carefully selecting them.. (not even tweakign them but let's not go there)
SO, haha. So proud. But can't say they were candid photos. I brought out my camera that day for the purpose of getting some shots to enter this competition where pppl are jumping, which obviously I didn't win. :p
But hey, I got favourited!:DDD
I have faith in whatever little talent I have already.
