Toast:

Yo! It's been quite a while since I last blog. So what have I been doing ya?
Working, movies (that's an eerie poster! Butter simply refused to remove that!), spending time with Butter, shopping (GSS!), walking (enjoyed our walk to Kallang Leisure Mall last Sat....it was really nice!), eating and sleeping heh.

Somehow feel good at my international workplace...only 4 (including myself) out of 20 in the department are Singaporeans ...the rest of my colleagues are from UK, Korea, Malaysia, Vietnam etc....nice people!

This Sat having bowling session at Kallang Leisure with Butter and friends. The lanes are "all fully booked from 2pm to dawn" *manz!*.......I got the 12pm - 2pm slot.

Today supposed to go to the toy and comic fair at Suntec....(Butter loves toys! heh)
We were really serious of going until Butter's buddy, Adam, pointed out that it's in June (!) Win liaoz....both of us actually went to pre-register via email so that we don't have to queue today....can imagine the reaction of that guy receiving our registration.
Sotongs.....

This Sun having a celebration. Every 1st of every month marks a special day for me and Butter :P....Nah we don't celebrate every month......a kinda Anniversary thingy..then again....we are still months away from the 1 year celebration heh.

And....yeah! I love Friday! hehe

Movie Reviews: Congkak

Butter's Review:

Description by myself personnally. The plot surrounds a family going for a holiday in their recently bought house in the rurals area in Malaysia. Little did they knew the house has an dark history. Things starts to get weird along their journey.

In Full malay language. Although visually, it's not scary. Audio effects gives the flim the horror edge. I have always been a fan of malay horror movies, mainly because most of them in the end will have a "show-down" between the evil and a powerful priest. Usually. If it gives me the creeps, it's a successful horror flim.

I give it 3 BUTTERS

Butter's Review

Any hardcore Indi fan will love this one. It is exceptionally good with the original cast and directors / producers. Go watch it if you have watched the previous few

Holland Ave - Flea Market

Toast:

Finally I booked a space (shared with Shirley) at Holland Ave near to Blk 2!

~2 tables + 2 chairs + umbrella shelter = S$30~

Sold bags, shoes and clothes. Prices for our 2nd hand clothes went as low as S$1 per piece...both of us felt some kinda heart pain at some point...Imagine a piece of esprit....or guess...or levi etc selling at that rate. The best sellers? Bags, Shoes and Jeans...a sell out! heh

Made more than S$100+ yesterday from major customers - Filipinos.

It was really HOT! At the end of the day, felt like you just spent a day at the beach. Anyway, thank goodness Butter was there too. Gonna be tough without a man at times like that ~ with loads to carry. *muackz*

Well it was quite interesting and once in a while, we had customers chatting with us...and a few kept asking for freebies. The funny part was...seeing the guys and not so slim ladies checking out our xs/s pants...some of the pants I couldn't even fit now! manz!

We were at the flea market from 1.30pm -7pm. After which we went to Thai Express @ Holland V for dinner...followed by K at Party World (with Ping Ping and Chris).

Guess the next outing would be at a club. Like what Ping suggested, maybe we should go Phuture at Zouk.

That was Shuian...Ex colleague. Had an International Seafood (if not wrong Vienna) buffet at Novena with them on Sat. Yummy! Lotsa Variety and very appetizing. Per Head is about S$45++. Anyway...FOC for me heee heee.

As for my new job....going pretty well so far. Nice people and environment. Great welfare! :)

Today is PH and this week, be working for 3 days...Shiok! coz Wednesday be attending a full day (or perhaps half day hehe) training.

Happy Vesak Day!

Movie Reviews: Made of Honor

Made of Honor revolves around Tom and Hannah, who have been platonic friends for 10 years. He's a serial dater, while she wants marriage but hasn't found Mr. Right. Just as Tom is starting to think that he is relationship material after all, Hannah gets engaged. When she asks Tom to be her "maid" of honor, he reluctantly agrees just so he can attempt to stop the wedding and woo her.

Butter's Review:

A good laugh for the weekend. Does show all the whys of not taking for granted the people around you. And also the proves the theory "You Snooze you loose."

Typical expected plot though, but makes up for the humour.

TYPHOON!!!

Butter:

When they say a typhoon's coming I didn't really quite buy it.
Since the morning was so hot and yesterday night is pretty calm.

Now, this very moment, I believed it!
In my hotel now on the highest floor, the wind is whacking my windows pretty bad, the howling and the rain beats. My god.... I wouldn't wanna be out there now really..
Trees are slanted in an uniform direction, the garbage are flying.
The howling scares me! None I have never seen or hear before!
Rain are going in horizontal form, hitting the windows panes really really hard.

Man... Didn't expect this to happen in Brunei.
Hope it subsudes in the morning =(

Oh dun worry, I am safe safe in the room.

Cos I'm leaving on a jet plane...

Butter:

But I know actually when I'll be back again! hehe
At the Airport now, going Brunei again... haiizz the Holy Ground.
Was pretty early today. Mis-read the flight time, is actually 10.55am but I thought it's 10.00 am
Haizz... So here I am become a wanderer again in the airport.
Flight leaves exactly an hour from now.

This will be the longest time I will not be at Toast's side.
Will be missing her so.. but luckily! By the power bestowed on me from the world of internet and infotechnology! We will see each other everynight! hehe.

Bought a web cam for her previously for trips like this ^^. So we can still see each other and chat for free. hehe

I will be back soon my love! Muacks muacks

Toast:

Don't stop, don't change, stay beautiful!
One life, Today you're irresistible!
Get up, get out, stay wonderful!
All this time is waiting for you....

Dedicate this song for me heh




I'm starting a new job tomorrow! Job Hopper? Only those who don't know me well will say that.

I did make the wrong decision in the first place. Not resignation from the construction industry but going into beauty. I admit that was a wrong move. A move that almost cost my ricebowl (But that will not deter me from doing something I'm gonna believe in the future)

Throughout that period..did not drop the ball...took the challenge to hit sales, pushing myself to complete whatever I started...I take pride and ownership in whatever I do...even when it turns out to be the shittiest job on earth. Even when I feel the weight of bringing me down...somehow I will still hold my ground. Even when I'm unhappy about it...I will still complete it. That's me. But at the end of the day, someone gotta bear with my gloomy face la...too bad hee...that be short term...I'll be ok after a while...like now! I'm up and back to my normal self...in the looking good mode once again haha

Every now and then....I do grumble and complain about my life la...but well... life has been kind to me...coz after much thought, it could have been worse geeez. Now I have Butter, I still have my family together and I got myself a stable job with a MNC :P

And seriously, I think I'm beautiful..wahaha...great song!

The Shots ~KL 01 - 04 May'08~

Toast:

Following shots taken from Butter's Camera

Malaysia ~Kuala Lumpur

~Impressive Structure~

Petronas Twin Tower

The queue for the bridge
(41st level...ermmm siemens office is on a much higher ground)

How long we q?? Gosh! The viewing batch started at 9+am...our turn?! Viewing time at 5.15pmWe went to meet Louise for lunch, visited her office as well...and watched Ironman at Pavilion heh

Yeah...at the bridge.

Check out the view!

Convention Centre (The Aquarium)

Beautiful...

I love the Horny Frogs pic taken by Butter below heee
So Cute!

They call it "The Eye of KL"

These 2 pics below...hehe

Poster Siahz!

We stood in front of that huge wall poster...haha

That's Louise apartment. I felt abit cheated. Always thought I could see the city and the towers.What I saw was another block of apartments opposite...and that block literally blocked the twin towers view. I rest my case. But her home is nice... cosy! And there was that joke on the storeroom. Thinking about that...I wana laugh...dun wana blog here...it's really stoopid

We travelled via LRT to KLCC. Better than taking cab. The jam there = bad!

Seriously, I blamed myself for forgetting to take this Hard Rock stirrer home.

In KL, Butter and I had been eating....eating...and eating (my appetite kinda tripled there...Really love the food!).

In KL, Butter and I had been walking...walking...and walking.

Something I come to conclusion:-

When they say "it's near", my definition ~ Quite Far

When they say "it's quite near ", my definition ~ very very Far. In fact Super Far!

o when there was that guy telling us "it's quite near..." Thank goodness...we took the cab! ______________________________________

Sounded like it was my first time in KL? In fact...it was my first time visiting there as a tourist putting aside the fact that I used to stay and work there for months.

It's been a great trip for both of us (although we stayed in Budget Hotel heh)...So who says KL is boring?!

Movie Reviews: Ironman

Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) is the CEO of Stark Industries which produces advance weapon systems for the U.S. military. Tony's father started the company after WWII, and after his death Tony inherited the company, worth billions. Tony lives the life as a hard drinking, rich playboy ladies man, but he is also a genius who has invented many high-tech items for the company. Tony flies to Afghanistan to demonstrate a new weapons test to the United States Air Force. On his way back to his plane, his convoy is attacked by terrorists, and Tony is wounded by a Stark Industries missile. Tony is captured and held hostage in a cave with Yinsen (Shaun Toub), a doctor who saves his life. The terrorists force Tony and Yinsen to reproduce the new destructive Jericho missile Tony was demonstrating from parts of other weapons. Instead, Tony decides to build a suit of armor with Yinsen's help. The suit gives Tony the strength and protection to be able to escape the terrorists. Back in America, Tony builds a better suit of armor which gives him superhuman strength with the ability to fly. With the help of his personal assistant Pepper Potts (Gwyneth Paltrow) and Air Force Lieut. Colonel Jim Rhodes (Terrence Howard), Tony vows to protect the world as Iron Man.

Butter's review:

One word.... nice! Common, any movie goers would have want to watch this show. Stay after the credits, for alittle thingy, only marvel fans would understand.

I give it 5 BUTTERS

Holiday time!

Butter:

In just less then an hour, Toast will be coming over and off we will go to KL!
Honestly, although I have travelled a fair bit to many places, this is actually the 1st time I am going to see KL proper! Something so close yet I have never been to.

The last time was just from Malacca to KL airport (which is pretty impressive as well btw) taking a plane to China. It's so easy to overlook the things that are closest to us, yet we don't bother even to think about it.

The theory is the same for people to people relationships, when two person gets together close enough for a long time, it is so easy to take each other for granted. Like you know, throwing temper etc, most people has forgotten that the person next to you is someone you have choosen to share your life with, not a boxing pad nor a maid. So please treasure who you have, words sometimes arn't just enough to cover that, actions speaks louder. ;)

Anyways, pictures coming soon!
Cheerio!
(of all the mornings for the past few days, it chooses to rain today... =/)
