First Sports Day of the Year

This year's sports day is split into four parts. Yay!! More half days!! Though i must admit it really do seem a little too much. But even so, i'm looking forward to the next few sports days. Heard there would be bowling and frisbee?! Sounds fun. Voice now coarse from all the cheering. Think i have to decree a no-talking day again.

Oh ya. i realised my house colour got a few cute guys!! hehe. now even MORE looking forward to the next sports day!

Amazing Race 13

Wuhoo!~ The Race is back! Once again, lucky i was watching tv during F1 weekend, else i wouldn't have seen the trailers. Yay! Amazing Race screens every Monday 2300hrs on channel 5. (^^,)

Singapore Grand Prix 2008

What a spectacular! Simply awesome! A complete turn of events saw the pole leader finish 2nd last and the 15th starter takes home the trophy of the first ever Formula 1 night race! How more dramatic can a race get!?

Only pity is DC couldn't get to the podium in his final season. There was a chance of that tonight and i was hoping for a better finish for my fav driver of the last generation of racers.

Truant

For once i was up early on a Sunday morning. But this year, after changing sensei and class, Jap lessons seems like a chore... Having really noisy and inconsiderate classmates do not help too. Since my tomodachis are not going today, the didn't-do-homework me also decided to skip class!

[Edited on 29 Sep] i'm a good girl afterall! i went for the replacement class today! And S-san gave me some yummy meiji choc biscuit dips. hehe. And i managed to finish my report! \(^^)/

S.L.I.M.

i'm in denial (that's why i decided to change the post title from F.A.T. to what it is now) over the weight and expanding waistline... been eating way tooooo much for the past few weeks. YK and SL are leaving the co soon, so there had been a few celebration lunches recently. And a couple more lined up next week!

What is it with Singaporeans and buffets?? i think we are all either somehow programmed from birth, or we are all brought up to be typical good Singaporeans, that you simply have to eat your money's worth at buffets. So much so that, as SL put it, till stretch marks appear! lol.

Anyway, if you have time for a long lunch, try the buffet at Furama City Centre - Tiffany Cafe. There's one for one promo currently. This one's halal but it's one of the better 1-for-1 around that has sashimi!

Also, would like to congratulate CT on her wedding today! oh i don't dare to count how many new stretch marks are there after the dinner!

Had planned to take my chances and scrimp on parking and eat a sumptuous roti prata breakfast... but haiz.... the rain washed away my brains and appetite this morning... and ended up will be spending a bomb on parking. haa....

「正義の味方」 Seigi no mikata 2008

やっぱり"干物女"の私は一部のドラマが全部見ることは無理ではない！ 実もとはこのドラマが興味ではない、「ランチの女王」を見ているから。 でも、何も見らないのでこのドラマを見て思って。。。

Didn't wanted to continue watching this show about this schoolgirl and her devilish older sister initially. Had seen the first episode and was kinda bored by it. Since there was nothing to watch so continued watching... The story gets better... but not really a must-watch either.

「ランチの女王」 Lunch Queen

Just finished watching this Jap drama from Summer 2002 at the recommendation of my colleague. i like this heartwarming drama with all the yummilicious looking omu rice and of course, Tsumabuki Satoshi (妻夫木　聡)!! Not forgetting the ultra cool Eguchi Yosuke and i do think Takeuchi Yuko is cute in here too! Everyone in this show is just so good looking! Even though i would have preferred a better ending but it is worth watching for all the men! haha.

What is lunch to you? Just a meal to fill up your tummy? A place for u to recharge for the rest of day? Something to look forward to? i wish i can find my own Kitchen Macaroni too! 心が温かく所。

アー！　オムライスは食べたい！ 今日は何か食べたい？

Procrastinator

OMG!! i realised that patchwork is really TOUGH! Argh! Been procrastinating my homework and now doing a last minute ditch to complete it for the class tomorrow. Haiz... Only managed to finish cutting all the cloth...

You see patchwork is done by HAND! Unlike my usual sewing where i just need to step on my machine... And alot of time spent coordinating the colours. First, you need to decide on the pattern. Then u decide on the fabric to coordinate to form the patchwork. Then u need to cut out the template on some cardboard. Then use the template to draw the pattern on the fabrics so that you could cut it. Then cut the fabric. Then sew the pieces of fabrics together. See! its so labourious! Oh my oh my! Think i better hide in some corner tomorrow. hehe. Or maybe i wont appear that bad. Some of the class people wanted to do a blanket! *jaw drop* i wonder is that possible to accomplish in 8 weeks!? lol.

Mushroom Park

At recommendation of LF, we went to this restaurant at Seah Street for mushroom (what else!) :p We shared the healthy and the natural set meals.

Basically the set meal consists of

1. mushroom sashimi (not sure if the mushroom is really raw cos it tastes cooked, just that it is chilled and yummy)
2. lots of mushrooms, some meat and vegetables cooked in a hot pot at the table
3. choice of rice with mushroom floss or steamed bun with condensed milk(!?). lol.
4. dessert (green tea jelly or milk pudding)

Portions are huge though prices are not exactly cheap either. The higher priced set meals have the more exotic mushrooms. Service was good as we are one out of four tables tonight. Everything just screams healthy. So even though we were all really FULL, it doesn't really feel that sinful. (Okay, i know i'm just deceiving myself! Pls don't eat till you burst your seams, not that i did! :p)

If you like mushrooms, you will like this place. :)
