10 days have past since the day I started dieting again. By now I've already lost 2.5kg in total.

Earlier today I tried on my non-stretchable jeans and WOW, I managed to zip it up! Ever since last August I've never managed to wear this pair of jeans as I kept on gaining weight throughout the previous semester.

My target for this time is 10-12kg, in 2.5 months.

This will stop once my exams start on 9th May, as lacking of glucose in the body will hinder brain activities (for more information, please refer to http://www.fi.edu/learn/brain/carbs.html ). I had a bad experience during A-levels 4 years ago so believe me, it's no joke.

NEVER, EVER DIET DURING EXAMINATION PERIODS.

_______________________________________________

I've been feeling great since last Thursday. Like I said, things will get better eventually. They always did, for me.

与其一直等待着那永远都等不来的安慰，还不如让我先挂电话，至少不会让我自己显得那么悲惨。

什么是老婆？

by [ 嚸 嚸 嘀 嘀 C: ]

老婆，就是那个为了省钱帮你买一份中意的礼物，却宣称自己是在节食的“傻瓜女人”。­
老婆，就是那个为了爱你，而放弃整片森林，一心想陪在你身边和你慢慢变老的“庸俗女人”。­
老婆，就是那个不许你看别的女人、提别的女人、赞美别的女人的“小气女人”。­
老婆，就是那个保存着你发给她的每一条甜蜜信息，时常翻来看着乐的“花痴女人”。­
老婆，就是那个总是嚷嚷着要宰你一顿，请她吃饭时，却说自己不饿的“可爱女人”。­
老婆，就是那个你说想买一双板鞋，跑遍全世界去找，结果却告诉你是偶尔看到就买回来的“虚伪女人”。­
老婆，就是那个你不在她身边，她无比想念，天天对着手机望眼欲穿的“可怜女人”。­
老婆，就是那个在你打游戏，睡觉的时候，打电话发短信来说“我想你了”的“可恨女人”。­
老婆，就是那个只要有你的支持，就敢奋勇向前毫无畏惧的“白痴女人”。­
老婆，就是那个看到别人的脏衣服都觉恶心，却将你穿一星期未换黑不见底的臭袜子洗得雪白而毫无怨言的“笨蛋女人”。­
老婆，就是那个一听见别人说你不好，就据理力争誓死捍卫的“泼辣女人”­
老婆，就是那个很坚强，很有自尊心，但在你面前却任性赖皮的“小女人”。­

男人，记住：老婆，就是那个只允许你吃她亏的女人。­

老婆，就是那个让你有了她而不再会想其他女人的女人。­
老婆，就是那个让一向吝啬的你，舍得在她身上花钱而竟然不心痛的女人。­
老婆，就是那个让你甘愿放弃睡懒觉，而起床为她做早餐的女人。­
老婆，就是那个让从前心高气傲大男子主义的你，变成会迁就、体谅的男人的女人。­
老婆，就是那个让你觉得洗碗洗衣服也很有男子气概的女人。­
老婆，就是那个让你懂得责任，只要她幸福，再辛苦也变得值得的女人。­
老婆，就是那个让你每个空余时间都希望有她陪伴，哪怕只是不说话的女人。­
老婆，就是那个让你因为她感冒而担心，看到她多吃一碗饭而开心的女人。­
老婆，就是那个让你愿意撑起一把伞，去挡住她头上乌云的女人。

It was a Wednesday evening and to celebrate the last few days of Chinese New Year, the EID clique decided meet up for Korean BBQ Buffet at Tanjong Pagar.

The food was good. There's a free-flow bacon, steak, pork ribs and much more. And the best part is, they are all well seasoned/marinated and properly sliced and displayed, unlike those cheapskate Chinese steamboat places at Bugis. Furthermore, no butter was used -- the meat was cooked purely in oil produced by themselves, making it slightly healthier. Also, the BBQ pan is slightly tilted to one side, allowing extra oil to flow down and be collected by a small container. It's definitely the place for meat lovers like me. The kimchi was fantastic too, since it's made by real Koreans.

The staffs are friendly and they will always attend to you quickly.

The only drawback is that the restaurant do not accept reservations and although we told the staff we have 4 more friends coming (making it 8 people), she refused to give us two tables unless all members are present. In the end, the 8 of us had to squeeze around a table for 4 due to their inflexibility. So if you are going in a big group with a few people yet to reach, split into two groups of 3-3 or 3-4 and pretend you don't know each other and pray that they will get you a table near each other. Don't try 2-3, for they have table for 2 persons only and chances of you guys sitting near each is much lower. OR, book a room for 10, but you are only given 2 hours to eat.

However, I will definitely go back again, just not in a big group or having many late comers.

Wicky, cooking food for us.


Yummy bacon, sausages, etc.


Us, all with oily but happy faces.

My love for road lamps again. LoL

Nothing special went on these few days. It's only the 4th week of school and I'm having 2 CAs next week.

Besides that, my FYP is totally not progressing. I'm pretty lazy to do anything about it, somehow. There's a lack of motivation. Seeing Weiren going to the CAE lab to do his FYP really stresses me out (Well, we have the same FYP prof and our projects are pretty similar).

Besides the 3 Korean dramas I have been going after for weeks, the only thing I'm spending time and putting effort in is my job application. A career fair, so-called the largest scale ever, will be held in school next week. I'm hoping to submit my application during this time to those organisations I'm interested in working for. Dad went through the whole list of the participating companies with me before he left Singapore and I sort of already know what I want.

Thanks, Dad!

Anyway, recently I was freaking pissed off by a member of my extended family. I seriously don't understand why some people love to amplify things and make a big fuss out of it. In fact, the same scenario has repeated countless times, but somehow this person has totally no self-awareness. Shame on this person.

 Do we have to take everything so seriously? Do they know their silly actions could hurt someone, someone totally innocent? Seems that 挑拨离间 is their 'unintentional interest'. Or maybe they love to grab attention. My respect for this person is lower and lower now. If you are so good at cooking up things, go and be a fictional writer then, don't spend time destroying relationships between family members.

Dinner With GIP Cliquw

The ladies, with Elicia missing. They are still so far two of the best girls I have met in university.


The guys.

CNY Dinner at Jumbo

The huge pincer I got.

CNY Gathering With University Clique

We were are Weiren's house. There were many things to play, unlike mine.


I kept winning while playing Mahjong that night. And this is my best win that night -- 5 'Tai'. I know it's nothing to most Mahjong pros, but it's really something to a beginner.

Dad came back to Singapore last Sunday to spend Chinese New Year with us. Rarely would he stay for more than 10 days, and so does this time.

A family friend came over from China to tour Singapore and my parents and I became their tour guide. There had been so much eating that my tummy hasn't been flat ever since the eve of Chinese New Year.

Anyway, bestie called me from US the other day.. Suddenly I realise he'd be graduating this year together with me as well. This led to us discussing our graduation trip. Somehow he doesn't mind going backpacking in Europe with me, just that money is the issue. Now I'm just keeping my fingers crossed and hope that he can come with me. It's time to do some planning soon..

The photos below were taken yesterday at Esplanade. I didn't know it's my mum's first time up on the rooftop. Oops.

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR TO ALL!!!

The decorations on the trees. I wonder how much electricity is wasted each night on these decorations.


Mum and Dad.


My pretty mum.
