eat and drink

here's the 3rd pic we took... as stated earlier, i dun like it, dun like the angle of my head and eyes in the pic. =( and when my mum saw it, she was like "you look fat" with her hands pointin to the cheeks. haha, but i'm generally fine with ppl telling me i'm fat cos i know i'm not slim or wadever. but she also commented she prefers the other 2 pics.

anyway, it was qt an eat-alot-and-drink-alot day yesterday!

had lunch at Eight Cafe & Bar (http://www.numbereight.com.sg/index.php) yesterday as they are having a 1-for-1 meal at $8.80, and i must say i really enjoyed the beef rice! their mushroom soup, which is included in the Chicken Salad set, is light yet tasty, and you can really taste the mushroom. (I've drank soups which totally did not have the mushroom taste = bad.) The ambience is also wonderful, (took a few pics but not with me) and we ended up having a 2-hour Friday lunch! haha

and in the afternoon, our department had a beer brewery tour, and at the end of the tour, we were treated to free flow of beer... the beer tasted nicer and fresher than those outside, but my conclusion is i still dun like beer.

and after that, went out with a few colleagues for dinner at a fabulous place called Fou de Fa Fa at Capitol Tower. Here's a short article on the place: http://www.soshiok.com/articles/11365 if you're interested.

i love the lady boss! she's super-friendly and recommended a few dishes to us. i had smoked salmon sandwich, the toast was nicely done with sunflower seeds on top, the salmon was fresh and yummy. I tried Paulene's Avocado wrap, which is ultra delicious, love the avocado and the CHEESE! u know i'm a cheese lover! and of cos, we ordered a jug of alcoholic drink to share. can't recall its name but it was really refreshing. in short, i'm not really a sandwich person but i like that place alot.

so after that we went to a house party, organised by one of my colleagues' friends, at one of the shops along Haji Lane. drank (again) vodka with soda, which was ultra strong. din feel really comfortable so we girls went off first. wanted to go to Blue Jazz but it was full house. so ended up at a Shisha place for a drink, and no, we din smoke that and also no alcohol this time round.

things din actually go the way we originally planned, but still it was an interesting day for me, cos these r things which i usually don't do! haha...

anyway, i simply adore this performance in American Idol Finale.

13 idols with Jason Mraz singing I'm Yours. i'm prob bias cos i LOVE I'm Yours! =D
enjoy~

when will ppl ever understand that having tuition is not EVERYTHING, as if it'll DEFINITELY ensure wonderful results, that tutors are not superhuman who can ensure wonderful results with 2 hours per week?

when will ppl understand that the tutee's results can nv b improved by wanting the tutor to teach EACH AND EVERY questions of the hw given WITHOUT THE TUTEE EVEN TRYING ANY, WITHOUT MEMORISING THE FORMULAS, WITHOUT EVEN REMEMBERING WHAT WAS TAUGHT MINS BEFORE, much less during the previous lessons.

how can the tutor provide really quality explanations when there're so many AMATHS questions (like 10+, 20) to be done within 2 hours?

how will the tutor know the tutee don't understand when the tutee don't even ask anything?

and with the implementation of extra charge for every extra hour since tuition ALWAYS drags, the tutee will try to finish everything before the extra hour is up (like an extra 55 mins. hey it's not 1 hour yet, so TADAH NO CHARGES! HAPPY!!).

and oyah, did i mention tutors also have to provide tuition over the phone?

lame.

i totally regretted agreeing to continue when she requested after i told her i wanna stop. shd have let someone take these nonsense.

and now i know my sunday will be ruined.

and my tmr will be ruined too cos i'm now too pissed to slp.

wth.

ARGH!!!!!!!

food and epl

2 of my tutees' exams are over and i had a rare Saturday off. WooHoo!

finally got to meet liu and grace for K at Katong Shopping Centre and of cos, before that, we headed down to have some katong laksa for dinner.

yums. drooling already?

and after the k, this song was stuck in my mind!

罗志祥 - 为你写首歌, din like this song at first but it has since grown on me, n i like him in pink. =) no points for guessing whose songs i sang the most.

anyway, one of my colleagues just got back from Bangkok and guess what she brought back for us...

fried meal worms and crickets!

wahah.. tried a couple of them, interesting texture they have, and tasty since they're seasoned with soy sauce, but should have been nicer if they're freshly-fried and crispier~ ha!

ok... back to other food.

egg tarts i bought near my workplace! there're a lot of flavours available - chocolate, green tea, original, cheese, blueberry and more! they're really yummy when you eat them when still warm. "crispy" crust with delicious egg fillings. =D

and last but not least,

CHAMPIONS!!!!

legends! wooh! and Scholes still looks like a lil kid here. =)

the defensive trio~

isn't Carrick's kid SUPER ADORABLE??? =D

but now the epl is ending, CSI:NY has ended, CSI ending soon/ended already - i still haven watch ep 24 so not really sure, Lost has also finished season 5...

... ...

withdrawal is setting in already! =(

yah i'm going to Aaron Kwok De Show Reel Live In Concert 09 with my bro and yufen!

4th concert and counting... :)

梁静茹 - 情歌

i'm not a really big fan of her, but i really like this song and for some reasons, this song always makes me tear up whenever i listen to it.

and do you know 潘玮柏 actually did a collaboration with Akon?

潘玮柏 & Akon - Be With You. such an interesting collaboration.

hm... this post is so random!
