Which Ben & Jerry's Ice-cream flavour am I?
Thursday, January 25, 2007
After a series of questions... here's the result:
You scored 81% SWEET, 77% CHUNKY, and 55% UNIQUE
Very sweet, very wild, and very fun! People flock to this ice cream flavor, just as they flock to you. You love being surrounded by friends and getting crazy together! You could probably stand to calm down a little, but the kind of freedom you feel is inspiring. You really care about the people in your life and party hard, but are open to new ideas and experience!

German Cuisine - Paulaner Bräuhaus
Monday, January 22, 2007
End of year => Friends from the working class will get bonus. Woohoo! Those who are still stuck in NUS then get to enjoy treats. haha... Thanks dude!
The gang hurried down to Paulaner Bräuhaus @ Millenia Walk after class on Friday for German Cuisine. Drag Alex down to join us despite his 'COOL' dressing which consists of adidas shirt and khakis. How happening?!?!
Menu of the evening:
1) Chef Jody Yu Platter - Frankfurter, Debreziner, Garlic sausage, Cheese knacker, Nuremberg sausages, roast duckling, spit roasted chicken, roast caraway pork, grilled pork knuckle.
~so meaty and for picky eater like me, better make sure i didnt swallow any beef or lamb accidentally~
2) Dill Marinated Salmon Served with crabmeat, avocado tartar and green grapes salsa ~i love the avocado and crabmeat combination. So appetizing~
3) Spätzle - Bavarian buttered pasta
Then off to Swensens because dessert @ Paulaner Bräuhaus contains tint of liquor which is "tak-halal". So.... end off with
4) Earthquake & my all-time-favourite Apple Crumble
The German Sausages are superb while pork knuckles not as good as i've expected. Those interesting dumplings sound so yummy but taste so weird. ewwwwl...
Mexican cuisine is still the top on my list!

the 1st Birthday celebration of yr 2007
Friday, January 19, 2007
There are 7 of us (35 free drinks) and so i wonder how many tequila shots we had. Music was good and of course, great company. Think the previous time when all 7 of us went clubbing was 3 years ago. So not into clubbing anymore but Well, it's always fun to hang out with the girls... A pity that some gotta work the next day..
We left 'when the night is still young'... ... ... heehee

Local Delights Chatterbox @ Meritus Mandarin Hotel... The famous Chicken Rice which everyone was exclaiming how expensive it is. So Kylie and I decided to try it out. Ermmmm... i really don't see why it must cost $20+++ per serving. I can't deny that the rice is extremely fragrant and the meat is tender. Don't we get that elsewhere too?! Then we also ordered Lobster Laksa which cost $29+++. Ok, minus the lobster, Kylie said that Katong Laksa tastes much better. Dessert was alright - Strawberry tart. but not satisfied enough, we head on to takashimaya basement to get Strawberry Shortcake from Rive... What's with me and strawberries when i used to hate it?! Though not agreeable with the price, we should just think that it is for the experience and to show support to local food. If European cuisine can demand expensive pricing, local food can do it too! heehee

When the Hongkonger meets the Mauritian . . .
Friday, January 12, 2007
Not as funny as i've imagined, but still, had a lot of fun by hanging out with them. Hongkie Kylie(glad she doesn't mind calling her that. heehee) and Mauritian Nicolas click off faster and better than expected. From Borat to Menotti, from a walk around Clark Quay to Cafe Iguana. The pics turn out so nice bcos i got them at their best angles. So when Nic is staying at a different side of Singapore, we'll have to go seperate ways when we head home...
And when it is down to just the 2 of us... Kylie and I start taking silly pictures. A packet of Tempo Tissue and a citibank credit card came crushing down on us. haha *so stupid* yET, I'm sure we can get better effect if we are more professional photographers. heehee.. Kylie has started to brainstorm how to improve this effect and what other materials we should use in future. Yeap, let's try it next time

How should we welcome the New Year . . .
Wednesday, January 10, 2007
Lunch on the eve at Mavis' place with the girls. We were allocated 'private seatings' (in the kitchen) to have our meals so that we don't have to mingle with her family guests. Huiying talks abt her Mekong adventure as she transforms herself to santa Mary and giving out gifts that she bought from the trip.
At night, Peasant Dinner by packing the popular dishes from both Chomp Chomp and Serangoon Garden Hawker Centre. End the night with some booze and silly games... to laugh our night off. Oh, not forgetting that we turn on the TV for countdown at 11:58pm after we welcome 2007. ... switch if back off at 12:01am to continue with what we were doing
The New Year at Clark Quay with the gals again. This time round, Mexican Food and half-priced magarita at Cafe Iguana. Yummy... To think that i am those who step back when someone is smoking, i Ended off the night, trying Shisha (flavoured tobacco) with them. Did have a taste of it back in Canada when it's so much better. Can't taste the flavour of this at all when we actually ordered Apple. Badddd...
No huge crowds nor big-bang events...Just Simple gatherings --> more than perfect... heehee

3 days into the year 2007. Goodbye to year 2006...
In 2006
- Left Singapore on new year's eve in 2005 and embarked on a journey of fun-filled experience of Student Exchange Programme to Waterloo, Canada. Get to know new people but some you might not have stayed in contact already (even though it's only 6months).
-together with unforgettable travelling adventures to Montreal, Quebec, Ottawa, Toronto, Niagara, New York, New Jersey, Virginia, Orlando, Miami, Daytona, London, Barcelona and Paris. Woke up in a different state/country almost every other day. Adapt to different environment, public transport and way of living within the shortest time possible...
- Spend money like crazy back in Singapore because everything seems much cheaper than Europe and States. On food and shopping. Money come and go without realizing. sigh!!!
- Back in Singapore with a slacking but 'project-ful' semester with only 2-day week though. Had so many tuition to occupy the remaining week when there's no school.
- Made new friends in class... Luke, the talented one... Mia, the organized and capable one... Kailing, the friendly and tiny singer... Kaiting, the chef-to-be... Nicolas, the entertaining Mauritian. Hope this friendship will stay... Thanks for making my semester more interesting.
