This is nasi pattaya. There is actually fried rice inside the egg. Yes, FRIED RICE. Delicious, tasty fried rice with two prawns and a small cluster of cabbage at the corner all inside the egg! Badariah and I went to this food market at Haig's road last friday. We went to this temp market at first (which is located near Paya Lebar MRT station) but the stall was closed. FYI, the temp market was on Our Makan Places: Lost & Found. We decided to try the food there since we got nothing to do. BUT, the stall was closed and we made our way down to this particular food market which also sells the dish. At that time, I really felt like eating everything there as all looked yummy. The market was really big. It reminds me of the round market in Tampines which I seldom go to nowadays.

I'm going back to watch the television now. Lots of great movies..

OUT!

I woke up at 2am this morning coz I remembered to brush my teeth. At the same time, I remembered that the results of FA Cup final should be out already. Unable to control my curiousity and excitement, I checked the internet for the results.



And guess what....



CHELSEA WON!!!!! (1-0) in extra time. Like finally?


I didn't really expected them to win as I thought their attack would be weak without the services of Michael Ballack and Sheva. But at least that was only on paper. Drogba came through for Chelsea to score the match winner- just as he did for the Carling Cup. Now, who says Ronaldo is good?

And guess what did I found on the kitchen counter early in the morning at 2am? It is a letter for me!!! I've always been happy when I receive letters as I do not receive many. Anyway, I took a look at the envelope and tried deciphering who was the sender. I was a little bit surprised to see the handwritting like my own. I thought that either I sent the letter to myself or my clone sent it to me. Then I tried to trace the words in my mind- only to confirm that it is my handwritting. I tried to recall any instance that I wrote my name on the envelope and passed it to someone. Finally, I opened the envelope and it all hit me. It is the letter in which we were told to send to ourselves last year!

Moving on from my otherwise mundane life..

I'm hooked on the 3rd series of the huan zhu ge ge show. It is soooo touching. I've been watching the show for the past few weeks for a couple of hours every Sunday. It is quite sappy at some parts la. But it is interesting also.

Finally, I think I've made my choice :)

OUT!

I hate work.

I'm in a dillemma. I do not know which course to choose. Come to think of it, I have not even made a decision yet. I'm still in the same position as 2 months ago when deciding which course I should pursue. I have to stop running away from making decisions- especially one that would have a great impact on my future. Just when I think that I have convinced myself to settle for one course, there would be something that would change my mind.

Honestly speaking, both courses are equally great. I'm torn. Sometimes I find myself debating on the merits/demerits of each course the whole day. In the night, I silently plead that I would dream of something- or anything that can help me make a decision. If life has a remote control, I would like to fast forward my life to the next ten years. I want to see what I will be doing in the future- whether I would love doing what I do- knowing that whatever I do will benefit people. There is a saying that goes 'it is always greener on the other side'. I do not want to make an irrational decision only to regret it years later. Only to start thinking what it would be like if I chose the other course.. Would I be a happier person?

There are many factors that can sway my decision- distance, my future prospects with the degree, what I would like to be in the future.. Do I really want to have a chemistry future? Do I really want to work in a lab in the future? Sure, I have to put in much effort as I admit that I do not posess a great aptitude for Chemistry.. More importantly, will I have enough steam to carry myself through?

On the other hand, I have to admit that I am interested in the sample course material of political science. When I read that short paragraph in the website, I was swept by it. I felt like I understood the material. At that time, it appealed more to me than the likes of hydrocarbons etc etc.. But will my interest be short lived?

I am me- but I do not understand myself best. Some say that I am a social science kind of person, many (and even I myself) will agree that a Chemistry degree will do me good in the future.

But what do I really want? Only time would tell..

OUT!

Happy labour day!!

Sunday was nicely spent although I spent almost half the day asleep. Went to tm/century square for dinner with my mum. Just as we were coming back home, we went to see the exhibits of ns40 just outside tm. The exhibition was really good, lots of great stage performances among other stuff. Spent a great deal of time cam whoring. Lots of pics to be updated in the next post.

Went down to Conrad after a bad day of work on mon to stay over for the night. I didn't have much of an apetite as I was already feeling rotten and downtrodden for the day. The suite was very nice. 3 tvs but we only made use of 2 because the other one was jumping. Wanted to call the operator (ha!) to report but decided against it since I was coughing almost every minute and my voice has this scratchy and deep sound. There was a pantry, two toilets ( a small and a big one with a bathtub), and a dining area. We were supposed to go to Oscars for dinner but ended up didn't go becoz the voucher said something about not being valid for the eve of public holidays and public holiday. But we had a great dinner nontheless, we brought dinner back from a foodcourt somewhere nearby (near the fountain of wealth). My grandfather and my aunty came down also and it was a nice feeling just to sit around the table eating.

Everything was nice until night time. I kept waking up every 2 hours when I was supposed to have that nice comfy sleep on the high bed. Reasons being that I was not used to the bed ( I don't like sleeping on any other bed except mine, that's why I don't particularly like hostels tsk tsk), my coughing bouts woke me and the hotel room was quite cold by my standards.

Breakfast was splendid with the tasty fried rice, potato wedges, bacon, croissants, hot dogs, cornflakes and snowflakes. If my appetite was better, I would have eaten that ice cream on the waffle and other food.

Went back to the room to catch some sleep before checking out and chasing the no 10 bus home :)

Due to time constraints and my health, didn't go to the gym and the pool. Haiz.

I didn't realise it until recently that having been a band member once is something to be proud of because of the moments that I have shared with the band and because of its rich history. All the band practices, concerts, camps, competitions and drills were a testing experience but it was worth it..

OUT!
