After work, wait for dear's call to meet him at Commonwealth Station. Then we proceeded down to Tiong Bahru for lunch, coz both of us were super hungry already. And I need to go to the bank as well. So went to TBP to have BK... -.-''
After that then we proceed down to ICA to collect our passports. Whish! and it was done in less then 5 mins! and our passports were collected already. Din know our government service has become so efficient. Probably also bcoz we did an e-appointment, and was sort of early for our appointment actually.
After collecting our passports, went to dear's school - Kaplan to pay his school fees. Surprise! Surprise! Saw Racquel! Recently really very got 缘 with her *LOL and she's studying in Kaplan as well, so walked together and on the way dear was telling her about kaplan and stuff like that.
When reached Kaplan, dear met his poly mate consider a 猪朋狗友， LOL coz they used to skip lessons together back in poly days, causing his results to plummet. Anyway his friend is a sign on now, and is getting married this december at Grand Royal Park Hotel! Changed Man. *haha But he still look beng-ish to me. =P
After making the payment, we walk around Orchard, and ended up at Taka. Not forgetting our cam whoring session at Coffee Bean. See below.
Last stop was at Kinokuniya, and after which we make our way down to Tanah Merah and board Bus 35 to Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal. =)

- over the weekend am going overseas so unable to celebrate with her
- her bdae falls on a Wednesday, and I have lessons from Monday to Wednesday, can't celebrate with her also.
- And it ain't nice to celebrate belated birthday =)
So we went to New York New York @ CityLink to celebrate her birthday! (in advance) =)
We (the girl gang) became a little political yesterday, anything related to money is forever a sensitive issue. This is actually all about whether to ask the brithday gal to pay for the dinner.
- We aren't being "Yao Gui", it's just that among us all, our 21st b'dae it's always the 寿星 giving treats to the friends. Coz it's like so 难得.
- We aren't the "VERY" generous lot, so we or maybe just me la, I don't foresee ourselves giving treat again during our future birthdays. (it's always friends treating us instead)
- So it is just being fair to everyone, and since we're all friends for so long already, no harm giving a little treat on a special occasion.
- So I gave a little nudge to the birthday gal, I do feel bad after I did that, but am not forcing her to pay, so hope she don't feel that we peer-pressured her. Coz if she felt that way, we would rather pay the bill. Coz it should be a voluntary one, so ya.
- Actually I'm a little disappointed that among us, we can't talk everything out. Coz I thought we should be able to talk everything under the sun.
- I was a little hmmz I dunno how to express myself, perhaps a little stumped when someone insisted that the birthday gal dun pay. So kinda felt restricted.
- Was thinking, if she really dun wan to pay its fine too, was just trying to see if she'll be kinda of automatic of stuff like.
- Perhaps we shouldn't be over-protecting each other anymore, moreover we're all young adults already, aren't we?
Anyway the birthday girl has already volunteered to pay though she haven't pay yet la. *LOL
Ok, that's all for now, coz felt a little tense last night and a little political so felt like voicing it out =)
Pics will be uploaded when I'm back from my Bintan Trip!

- Economy stop growing.
- Salary never increase.
- BUT commodity prices keep going up.
All because of OIL prices.
And it causes us to suffer - jobs lost and wages stagnate.
And according to Economists there are two principal contributing causes of stagflation.
- Stagflation can result when an economy is slowed by an unfavorable supply shock, such as an increase in the price of oil in an oil importing country, which tends to raise prices at the same time that it slows the economy by making production less profitable.
- Both stagnation and inflation can result from inappropriate macroeconomic policies.
Channelnewsasia on Sunday reported, quoting NTUC Chief Lim Swee Say warned that stagflation is the worst case scenario Singapore can face at this time. It was also reported in The Straits Times.
But actually it has long been predicted by economists and one of them is my lecturer - Mr. Frankie Yee. And now finally it's been widely known of the word STAGFLATION. And actually back in May 2008, somebody has already posted the same issue that STAGFLATION SIGNALS UP but Singaporeans who are addicted to the good life seem oblivious to the danger, quoted from SGForums.
So how are we Singaporeans suppose to continue to survive here?
Should we stay or should we move? If we stay, are we going to make it?

Wasn't feeling well the whole day, din had much appetite for lunch and kept feeling nauseous and worst of all the bout of headaches and giddiness plague me again. =(
But I still tahan all the way to attend class. And so sorry couldn't meet up with my dearie gal to pass her the clothes she bought.
Class ended early today - 9pm, actually was 8.50++ before 9. And dear was there in front of my school waiting to fetch me home. I was beaming in bliss. Overwhelmed. Felt so loved. Felt so happy. And it was so unlike him. =)
Nevertheless, I'm enjoying it, enjoying this feeling. Thank You dear. Love You!

We used to be close when we're young and I mean REALLY young, still got a few pictures of us back then - very very YOUNG. *REMINISCING~~ She's only a few years my senior, and we used to live really close by. Both our mums are very close too, they are sister-in-laws. Coz our daddy are brothers, and I mean real brothers by blood.
Still remember back then when I've yet to get my own computer, and needed to hand in some assignments using computer (P5/6), I dropped by her house super often to use the computer. *LOL And ya dear's room air-con was actually the same air-con that was used back then in that computer room! *heez.
Was pretty surprise when I first received her msg. Coz it's been donkey years since we met and/or did we ever bother to keep in contact. So yea, surprise and happy to see her email. And even more surprised when she told me she chanced upon my blog. Hmmz Hmmz my blog ain't that popular, is it?
*LOL Anyway hope we can keep in contact. And blogging is really a good way of letting others know how we've been getting by even when we don't meet up often.
Keep in Touch ok! "Gun Gun Jie Jie"
I dunno how it is spelt but if you ask me face-to-face I'll pronounce it to you =P Anyway she said not to call her that anymore coz we're all grown up and it'll make her hair stand *hahaz. The name was actually quite endearing... but I don't know how it came about *heez =)
So now I'll call you Vivian or Pei Jun instead. =D
