September was a very happening month for me!
After paintball on the 1st, I met up my friends whom I met during my stint at Udders about 4 years ago.
Thankful that we're still in contact even after all of us have left to further our education/work experiences :)

The only missing person here is Wayne! 

Can you imagine all these girls are younger than me? (except for Jack, the store manager!) 

We were all once ice cream girls!

Settled down at Coffee Bean for drinks after dinner at Food for Thought

Jack captioned this "Abs never even suspected!" 

Yeah.... I really didn't know they were gonna surprise me! :)

Here's me with my little birthday muffin, a day before my birthday!

And the beginning of crazy photo taking sessions began hahaha

It's a game to cover each other's faces and see which person's face appears the most in a picture!

I think it's a Korean game... I saw it on Running Man in one episode!

And boy was it hilarious!! Hahahah

One of the many super unglam shots... see where all our hands are! 

Ending the post of me and Mingmin! :)

I had really fun that day and I just wanted to go home, bathe and sleep!!

Until............

I had another surprise!!! 

Which will be in the next post! Teehee

My dream house

One fine day while looking at my cosmetic products on my shelf, I thought I'd love to have some proper cosmetics organizer some day (as if it isn't really organized already)! I googled for one, started with some acrylic organizer, but chanced upon a really nice white wooden one! I really like those wooden, nature kinda stuff!

Then I realised... wait a minute.... This website has so much of my favourite things!!!!

So here are some pictures of how I'd like my house to be, credits to pbteen.com :)

Bedroom

Room with loads of sunlight, and wooden furniture

Love this chest of drawers! Thankfully Ikea has them

Getting Dressed

Absolutely love this make up area!!! I imagine lots of efficiency being made!

Only thing I'd change is the middle portion, I don't like to sit down and do my make up. I like to be really close to the mirror hahah

This could be in the middle as an alternative

Not the mirror though!

And this was the cosmetic organizer that initially caught my eye! 

Pretty right? Can even have your name there!

Office

I'd like my study room to have big windows as well! 

As you can see, I love all things in white furnishings. Just makes it look so much more classy.

I don't mind an L shape table too, but hopefully not facing a wall. 

I see a sewing machine there!!

(Photo taken from Ikea's website, just to show that I want THAT particular chair.)

I don't mind having some wooden keyboard and mouse too :)

Vintage office supplies!

Living Room

Photo frame collage

Quoting one of Ikea's wise quotes: "A smart entrance leads to a smooth exit"

Love it when all my necessary stuff needed are just hanging by the door so I'll never forget them and move out fast at that!

Wall shelves are very important too!

So as some of these ratten baskets... I already have some in my room from Ikea!

I can't wait to start building my own home!!!!!!!!!!!!!! =D

Go Kart & Paint Ball!

On the first day of September, my colleagues and I went on a trip to JB for some go-kart & paintball! 

We hired a mini bus to take about 10 of us to take us directly to all the places we wanted to go.

Had our breakfast at some prata shop the driver recommended, then off we went into the deep forest for the go-kart! I think we spent about half an hour driving through the dense forest. When we reached there, we saw that that majority of the cars parked there are from Singapore! Guess this is a pretty well known place.

Before setting off into our karts! 

Had to put on the shower caps coz their helmets are really really disgusting.

Right after race! I was soooo slow, everyone over took me. Hahhaa

Pit stop for lunch! Carol and I.. Partners at work!

Had to wait for our turn at the Paintball place so we ended up playing some bowling for an hour... 

Then we got changed into our army uniform that the guys really kindly brought for us to wear!!!!

Our act-serious faces.

Then "oh-ya-pei-ya-som" to split up into 2 teams.

Team Orange!

Team Blue! We have an extra person because we have only 2 guys (I guess?! Haha)

Ready with our masks!

Ready with our guns! 

Ready to go to battle! 

Some scary shit. I was so terrified of getting shot and hurt (4 days later will be my birthday so I didn't want any bruises!!! Actually, I just didn't even want to endure any pain) that I completely used up all my 100 pellets in one round. Usually people play about 3 - 4 rounds for 100 pellets. I just kept shooting when I saw someone! Hahahah

The others went on to their next few rounds and the pellets were coming through to the viewing corridor! We didn't wanna get stained with inked so we hid hahaha...

Looked kinda obscene though!

Our last group photo showing off all our bruises.....

As expected, I had none!!! Whheeeee!! Hahaahah

Melb Day 8: Last full day!

I know, I am so bad at keeping up to date with my blog :(

It was our last full day in Melbourne city so we really wanted to make full use of it! Or rather me... which means I wanted a very very fruitful shopping day!

Chubs went to meet a famous food blogger for lunch and off I went to a nearby mall and I was really excited to spend all my money!!! Hehehehe. That feeling is really great I tell you :P

I went to Jay Jays and fell in love with the candy coloured jeans! These jeans are pretty fashionable right now, and they were going for 2 for $50. I stayed in the shop for pretty long that Chubs was already done with his lunch meeting when I was still there. In the end, he decided to get the jeans for me!! I got an orange and a purple one. He thought it was 2 for $25 though, heehee! :P

Feeling really famished, we stopped by this place called "captains of industry" in one of the small lanes.

A pretty neat place with loads of vintage furniture. Chubs said he really like this cafe a lot!

Their menu was pretty interesting though, it was a really big chalkboard which the staff held up for us to read. Haha. They only had 3 main course to choose from too.

 

Love my mocha and the really vintage spoon that came with it!

My order. I chose this salmon one coz it was the only one that seemed appealing. The others were either too expensive, or that I had no idea what it was.

I really love this weird dish though! I have no idea what the sauces are, but I love the salmon and all the veggies that came with it!

Then we went shopping at Harbour Town (all the outlet stores!!) and we got sooo tired. This tired is in a good way :) Went back home to change and went to town for Crystal Jade dinner with Emma & her friends.

The only thing that I liked so much (and left a deep impression) during the dinner was this wintermelon soup!!!! It's heavenly and even the insides are soo soft and yummy. I've never seen such a dish before, really. I really want this again! 

Came back home and packed! Had to be up really early the next day. 

Recently fell in love with all things mint/turquoise!

Took some last few pictures together :)

 

My favourite cat!!! 

Thank you Em & her household for hosting us :) 

& this is the end of my Melbourne trip in 2012! Phewwww like finally! 

Happy new year guys!
