So far...

I thought I had a lot of things to say but now that I am staring at the screen and have to start typing, my mind feels kind of empty.

Maybe I will just post a few photos and talk from there.

Mother's Day dinner! Here are the two decent photos taken with my camera at our special family dinner last Sunday. Actually, it was nothing special compared to our other family dinners every Sunday. BUT, just because it was Mother's Day and we had a new family friend joining us for this dinner, it was special:)


On 17th May, Thursday, Jolene and I met our "god-family" at Vivocity Marche for dinner. The two photos above are the 3 sons of my godparents - so you can say they are my god brothers? I took the train home with them and, boy, the two youngest (the oldest is the one in the centre) boys are SO active and loud. Makes me wonder if I really want to have children next time.

It doesn't help that I had dinner with 3 rowdy boys from church just now. James and Beatrice were tasked to "babysit" these 3 boys while their parents went to visit someone who is very sick in hospital. James and Beatrice were originally supposed to go out for dinner with us (other 19-year-olds) so it was complete madness as we walked from the hawker centre to the Community Centre about 10 minutes away so that the boys could keep themselves occupied before their parents came to pick them up. Poor James. They were torturing him, speaking so loudly to him he may very well become a little deaf if he keeps babysitting them. James tried to get them to come to my house, which was a complete no-no. I didn't want the usual peace and quiet in my house to be disturbed!

Well, I guess this is just checking in lah. More next time!

OH! I'm going shopping with Jien tomorrow! Hopefully we can find nice, cheap stuff to buy:)

Random #1: SUMMER HAS COME EARLY! The weather these few days have been AWESOME. After Monday lectures, Po Yew, Janice and I made a quick trip to the Millenium Gardens just next to Law School to take photos. The sky is so blue, the sun is so bright, the grass is so green, the flowers are in full bloom... Forget about jackets. In Po Yew's words, which he said very happily, "The girls are wearing nothing!" Girls are walking around in mini skirts sans stockings and in spaghetti tops. Many people are now lounging around on grass patches too. I look out of my room window to see a group of people on the grass. And they actually brought out their computer screen from their room! Random #2: DINNER TIME FEELS LIKE LUNCH TIME Days are getting longer now. At 7pm, it feels like it's still 4pm. Get this, I took this photo at 7pm. Random #3: SMALL GROUP OUTING I actually just got back from a small group outing to the bowling alley, which also had a bar and a game arcade. A lot of pe...

Magical Christmas 2009 has come 11 months early

It has been snowing most of today, and everything is covered in snow - a beautiful, magical, pretty sight! It really is unbelievable how much snow there now is in Nottingham. Because it's Nottingham! It never snows in Nottingham, at least not for many many years past! Even in London, I heard that it's snowing so much that Heathrow airport was closed, train and tube services were stopped, SCHOOL LESSONS WERE CANCELLED! Why can't we have classes cancelled over here?! When I first woke up, I knew it would snow at certain points of today (but I didn't expect THIS much snow!). First shot of the day: Then the first of today's many snowfalls began at about 9plus in the morning. Here are 2 photos of the snow that collected on my windowsill: Another 'boliao' video of the snow falling: Before I knew it, it was time to go to school for lectures. After my 2 back-to-back lectures, I walked back with John and Po Yew. But, before we headed out of school, we went to the Dow...

Like some Airline video

I just watched the 3+ minutes of the "final chapter" of Little Nyonya, the Channel 8 drama serial that ended last week. [Spoiler alert] I think it is so unnecessary? Anyhow, from the time of 2:59 onwards, I felt like I was watching some kind of Airline video, the one where they would show before the airplane takes off, briefing all passengers on what to do in cases of emergencies and stuff like that? Seeing Chen Xi stand behind Yueniang like that reminds me of when the air stewards and stewardesses on the video would end the video saying, "Thank you for your attention. Have a pleasant flight." Don't you think so? On the topic of Little Nyonya, I read an article from Mediacorp TV about this "Final Chapter" and I really wonder why people are making so much noise over a drama serial such that Mediacorp people have to step out to make further explanation! It's quite ridiculous, frankly. Just read it here . After reading it, I laughed. AND the DVD is co...
