Deja Vu

Can't believe that it's still happening to me when I'm 25.. Haha! Come to think of it, it's pretty amusing~ I feel flattered =p

On a separate note, saw my neighbour who used to be my schoolmate in Cedar, holding hands while strolling in the park with a guy.. It was pretty late at night and I think I must have surprised her (hope I didn't scare her) haha!
The guy looked pretty decent and seems like a good man~
I feel happy for her! =)

Random Amusement

It's amusing how someone can parallel park like that, and leave it as that! right in front of a building entrance =P I dare say I can do it better than him/her.. haha..

Luckily the car is small..

But all thanks to this car, I was tickled the moment I stepped out of office.. haha!

Movie under the stars~

Few Saturdays ago, we headed over to Fort Canning Park for an evening of movies under the stars... It's supposedly an annual event for Class 95, where they will organise a public movie screening at the park~ It was my first time there and I was surprised to see every (almost) inch of green grass covered when we reached.. Friends and families gathered for a night of movies - Despicable Me and Iron Man 2 (both which we already watched some time back).. haha!

I agree that it's also due to us being late.. haha.. that's why it was very difficult to find a good and spacious spot to sit on throughout the night =P

Nonetheless, we managed to manoeuvre our way through the crowds, with the occassional 'tsk's from the ppl (already seated down) when we meandered through them in search of a spot to rest our legs.. haha.. I understand and forgive their 'tsk's.. haha.. coz I might have added some sand into their pre-packed dinner/snacks they brought along to picnic when we walked past them.. =P

And this was our spot! with us sitting comfortably on a piece of trash bag I found from home, as our picnic mat =) how creative! finish using can throw ma~ haha.. The Class 95 organisers thoughtfully provided us with plastic fans to keep us cool at night~ We bought snacks from carrefour too! well-prepared to enjoy a night of movies under the stars.......

Our view for a few hrs that evening~ not bad I think, conisdering our view was virtually unblocked! =)

Mr Koh bought this hot dog bun coz he said "like that then got watch-movie-and-picnic atmosphere ma".. haha.. It costs 6 bucks! which I thought was pretty expensive, but I'll let it go coz the hotdog is very long.. and tastes expensive.. hahaha..

Class 95 tent, where all the DJs were seated under during the screening of the movies.. I saw Jean Danker and Glenn Ong! haha.. But had to control and suppress my starstruck emotions and expressions.. I'm an adult ok, cannot embarrass myself this way.. =P

But it was nice seeing them.. coz Radio had been an important part of my life during my growing up years~ accompanying me when I do my homework/study for exams at home (I listened to 98.7 then).. Then gradually I switched to Class 95 coz the songs I used to listened to then at 98.7 when I was in school was 'upgraded' to a more mature channel - Class 95.. haha.. So it was a natural progression~

Come to think of it, I actually followed Jean and Glenn from 98.7 FM to Class 95.. feels like they grew up with me =P Awww...........

Anyways, during movie break time.. I caught these 2 boys playing and fooling ard.. haha..

Us before the start of the second movie~ =) This is when Iphone 3G failed me.. poor light conditions and shaky hands resulted in such lousy quality pictures =P
On National Day~ We courageously headed down to Marina Bay Area to join in the crowds and of course more importantly, the highlight - fireworks!

Even though we caught the fireworks almost every week they had rehearsals, we decided to head down to catch the fireworks on the actual day.. again! =)

And because it's National Day, to show our love for Singapore, we wore red!

I dug out my reddest top in my wardrobe and wore it with pride that day~ haha..

We were joined by friends.. specifically CY+ (code name for Mr and Mrs Chen Pin Han, Mr and Mrs Ye Wei Ting) that day.. haha! who obviously weren't as patriotic as us.. haha!

Happy Birthday Singapore!!

I still love you~

In the month of July...

July went past discreetly and suddenly August comes knocking on my door.. reminding me that September is coming next =P (sounds like the song 'Friday' by Rebecca Black).. I know what I said earlier is just stating the obvious.. haha! Pardon me~

Anyway, July went by with....

newly-discovered-manicurist-me doing my own nails =) I found my 'talent' in nail art~ Pretty decent work I must say.. I know what I can do when I retire in future.. hee.. I'll charge cheaply =P

July is also the month where my beloved Lions fought bravely against the Tigers... How can I miss this highly anticipated causeway derby? Well done Lions~ We are very proud of you!
As the saying goes, there's always a Tiger behind every Lion.. You need to have watched Singapore soccer / soccer fan to know what I'm talking about.. haha..

Mr Koh and I in red (I'm almost red) in support of our Lions! haha.. We were at the grounds of PA, located beside Jalan Besar stadium to catch the live screening of the match =)

July is also a month where we embraced healthy living!.. injecting some nature/exercise element into our routine "shopping malls-weekends".. haha..

and so, we headed over to Bukit Timah Nature Reserve to work those muscles~

Don't be deceived by the pictures.. The slopes are surprisingly and shockingly steep.. I'm not kidding.. I felt inappropriately dressed for that day, coz I wore flip flops there.. I tortured my poor soles and legs while climbing up the hill.. haha.. I'd always remember to wear proper shoes next time~ at least Mr Koh wore something decent =P

After some strenuous climbing and hiking, we reached the summit!! My muscles never felt so toned before, after strolling through other nature reserves in Singapore previously.. This is by far, one of the more challenging one.. haha! but I like~ bring it on =) Could be due to the extra strain I exerted on my legs coz of the slippers that I wore.. haha..

We went downhill after that.. and crossed over to the nearby Bukit Timah railway track.. I've been wanting to go there since some time back coz friends/cols have been talking abt the closed railway station and tracks.. Seen many friends post pictures on FB too.. so we decided to leave our footprints there, before they remove all the tracks =)

This is my favourite shot of the tracks.. Not easy to capture such a shot on a weekend especially, where families and groups of friends will come and have a stroll there.. A picture says a thousand words, and this picture seems to tell me to stride forward.. come what may~

As you can tell from the pictures above, it was a hot day.. haha.. Our eyes instantly became smaller with the glare from the sun~

Posing with one of the signpost.. I'm as white as a sheet.. almost like the twillight-vampires.. haha..

And Mr Koh is clever enough to stay in the shade.. looking dark, tall and almost mysterious like.. perhaps like a Dracula? haha..

Besides that, I also took a day off on Monday, to lenghten my weekend, and brought my folks around town~ haha..

Me and Ah Qi.. at 313 basement..

Dearest Daddy and Mummy~

And this is my dinner that day.. haha.. some cheap sushi set~ Not very nice though, just passable..

My July was wrapped up with lovely fireworks display from the weekly NDP rehearsals.. Mr Koh and I religiously went to catch the fireworks from different locations every Saturday.. We missed one session though, coz we're busy rooting for the Lions that night =P haha..

It's magical~ to bask under the brilliant showers of colours and sparks.. Mr Koh and I made ourselves comfy and enjoyed the 5-10 mins of magic in the skies =)

Beautiful isn't it? haha.. of course it must be nice, I paid my taxes dutifully =P I'm just making sure I 'reap' the benefits and that my taxes are put to good use (buy nicer fireworks).. =P

May August shine as brightly too! =)
