Trying hard to keep myself occupied during work, because all that I was doing at work was plainly just shreding of papers and also some paper work. Considering for a rechange of job, but if my plan was to head back to studies, this cant be done.
Im too tired, haven been getting enough sleep because mom has been snoring so loudly and often wake up in the middle of the night? And whats there to make my day worse, which is to be having the boss son making trouble and being lazy, thinking all abt himself. Nope, mayb i shldnt say all this. But seriously, my day at work was being dampen even more. Sometimes if im being given a chance, one thing i would do at work was to give that boss son a tight slap. but oh well, that chance will nvr come. Okay, forget abt it.
Apart from all this, at first i was quite looking forward to my batam trip, but seems like right now, i feel irritated! If i had a chance, i would cancel the whole trip! Because of that particular guy, but anyway, i shall give that guy a chance, so he better not step on my toes on the day of dept, otherwise i'll def make sure i'll skin him alive! Okay not that bad la, i dont do such things! haha! prob just give a super nasty face throughout the whole journey! LOL!
Anyway its midweek! Hopefully my day will be better, to tired to be doing so many things )):
On a side note, ive been missing jogging for 2 weeks ): Boo! gotta keep up with that!

Food Blogger Wannabe: Good Morning Nanyang Cafe!
Last weekend was supposed to have lessons but ended up not getting any because of some issues that happened over at Kaplan.
So apart from ‘Tomb Sweeping’ on Friday, Saturday was a day to enjoy and relax ourselves.
So we drove down to Sembawang Shopping Centre for a little bit of shopping and headed back to my place for dinner.
Shopped at Daiso for some necessities and some useless stuffs, we decided to look for a place to sit and enjoy high tea before dinner. So this traditional coffee café caught my eyes.
It wasn’t really hard to spot btw, its actually just at the main entrance, and the shop was really bright and easy to notice.
This traditional coffee café serves tea and coffee just like how Yakun did! (:
Okay, mayb its just because I prefer traditional cafes more than those new ones. But of cuz it depends on the place too! Haha !
Good Morning Nanyang Cafe was the name of this cafe.
Teh Si for the boyfriend and it was not that bad, but i still prefer the ones ive gotten from Yakun! =D And Ice Milk tea for me, okay Im quite particular about ice teas and coffees, firstly they must be yummy enough for me to like them! Secondly i prefer my tea/coffee milky! LOL!
But the ones at this Nanayang Cafe didnt give me that feeling )):
The have gotten really nice interior traditional designs.
Ceramic bowls are being hang on the walls to give us an olden days kopi tiam feel (:
Okay because i was sitting just below this antique clock so this is the best i could take! hahah!
Another fact, I love antique clocks, I love how they look classic and simple and gives out that 'ding dong dong' sound whenever the clock strikes 12.
I always remember seeing antique clocks at Grams place last time, but too bad she sold her house away. Otherwise, it would have been really a good antique. =D
Another item that ive ordered (:
Kaya and butter toast! This is my favourite! I like how the toast is thick and crispy and how it makes the bread looks so tasty! (: And at first sight, I tot there is no kaya being applied on, but i was wrong, I didnt know how they manage but they did manage to put in both butter and kaya, not thick but just nice.
My overall experience was great, except that the rain that day was ruining my perfect day! LOL!
But all in all, this cafe is worth visiting, okay mayb for the bread hahah!
But i do see people ordering mee siam and mee rebus from this stores, so i suppose its not too bad, shall give it a try next time round (:

Busy never endss
Finally get my hands on blogging a little today! LOL!
Have been busy since last week.
Last Friday which was a Public Holiday, woke up at the usual timing (6am).
Drove home and took dad's car and off to 'visit' our granddad for early Qing Ming.
Heres a little about what we do during Qing ming (okay, I took all this from wiki) haha!,
'The Qingming Festival is an opportunity for celebrants to remember and honour their ancestors at grave sites. Young and old pray before the ancestors, sweep the tombs and offer food, tea, wine, chopsticks, joss paper accessories, and/or libations to the ancestors. The rites have a long tradition in Asia, especially among farmers. Some people carry willow branches with them on Qingming, or put willow branches on their gates and/or front doors. They believe that willow branches help ward off the evil spirit that wanders on Qingming.'
But in short, chinese will head down to the respective places to 'visit' their relatives or friends during this period, to help them to change the flowers and clean their tomb.
This year was slightly different, my uncles were at first planning to head down only at abt 10am in the morning, but because my dad gotta head back to his office to continue with his projects, so we set off early this year. Reached at around 7am, and over there was like already filled with people.
After we did all the necessary stuff, dad drove us home and off the boyfriend and I head down to 'visit' his grandma. But we never realised that the place was so packed that we had no place for our cars to park! LOL! So we had no choice but to park at some multistorey carpark which is like 4 traffic lights away. So we had to walk in in that hot weather. But oh well, i shall treat that as a good exercise LOL!
After all this visiting, we headed down to Clarke Quay, oh yea, early in the morning, 11am!
Check out the view at Clarky Quay! It was pretty relaxing, except the fact that we got no idea what we could do in such early hours LOL. But anyway, I bought an Paul Frank Umbrella from deal.com. And I was there to collect it.
This time round, I'll have the bf to drive! Since he has just gotten his driving license like 1 month ago ! hahah! he needs training doesnt he?
So a picture of myself (In case you guys miss me =D)
