at ard 1030, i was supposed to leave home for ktv. but then nobody’s home so i had to help to look after zi xuan while baby pump her milk. so after baby finished and her mom is back, time is already 1115. i quickly helped to settle the things a bit then head down to the ktv. eugene was the 1st to reach at 1100 and already ‘finished’ singing his songs b4 any of us reached there, lol… i reached there only ard 1130. when i reached there, only eugene was there. chinyao and linjy were on mia list. juz then chinyao called me and asked me which ktv am i at, so i explained to him the other new ktv at the huge hawker centre. seems like not many ppl know about this ktv, lol…

when he reached, he told us that he went to the other ktv at the other side. the one nearer to amk hub. n he was gg up to the ktv wif another lady, then dat lady was asking the person where is the room. they told her dat it is at the other ktv. then chinyao was saying that he walked up to the counter confidently that we would be there and asked for the room k9, then the counter told him it is at the other ktv too, lol… wad a joker, haha… then when the 3 of us arrived already, we started ordering for hainanese chicken rice. and continued our ktv. lin jy only arrived ard 1pm… then she also ordered curry chicken rice. chinyao was saying that maybe the ktv went downstairs to da bao a $2 chicken rice n serve us, lol… after the ktv at ard 2.30pm, we headed down to yishun safra to continue our 2nd part of the day, bowling~~

we tried to get kris to meet us at yishun mrt so we can go bring him down to safra together. but then he was saying he wanted to go himself, so we gave him the directions on how to get there. oh ya, chinyao was saying that he met myint cho at a seminar this morning and got to know that kris was actually working in the morning. but kris told ug that he gt something on, lol… ok, back to the main story, we reached safra and wanted to book a lane for our bowling, only to know that it was fully booked by dunno some arses for training until 9pm… oh well… we had to head to orchid country club instead… then ug called kris to meet up at yishun mrt instead. then as he was asking kris where is he, he was still at home! lol!! ug was quite pissed and told kris to meet up at the bus stop outside northpoint after 10mins. haha… so i went to pump petrol first. after pumping petrol, i drove dwn to the bus stop, but he was nowhere to be found. so chinyao called again and asked where is he. he was at the taxi stand on the other side of northpoint… we were all like er… kris was still saying chinyao told him at the taxi stand, hahaha…

叶问2

went to catch tis much awaited movie today n it really was gd. the whole story covered on him trying to establish wing chun in hong kong and spreading it. the fightings were very gd and samuel hong was also a very gd cast in the movie. after watching this movie, i read some parts here n there about him. apparently he learnt from 2 different masters on wing chun, chan wah shun and leung bik. i shall nt tell too much on this as there will be another movie coming up in june on his learning of wing chun. i give this movie a 4.5/5 rating. one of the better movies for spreading chinese martial arts.

1 Year Wedding Anniversary

as i hv mentioned in my previous entry, today is planned by baby. morning session as usual, will be for xiao niu to ‘prepare’ herself for her outing. yah, she will be following us for the afternoon trip. so today we were gg to baby’s grandma house for a short visit. we left baby’s mom and xiao niu at her grandma’s house while me n baby went down to citibank to settle our citibank credit cards. baby went down to cancel hers, while i went down to apply mine.

after finishing the whole thing, we went bck to her grandma’s house to sit for a while before gg out for lunch together wif her mom, her auntie, baby and xiao niu. we went to pepper lunch at amk hub. baby’s auntie very ‘forcefully’ paid for our meals which costs ard 40+. after the lunch, we went down to ntuc to buy some items. and again, baby’s auntie ‘forcefully’ paid for the items too… lol… thks to her auntie. :) i went up to buy “yip man 2” movie tickets for the nite while they waited at the ntuc level. then baby proposed to send her back to her home, but she still rejected us… :\ really is a very kind and good auntie.

Pre One Year Wedding Anniversary Celebration

baby and me had our 1st year wedding pre-celebration on this date. cos tml is a monday ma, also is a working day. (but i m not working!!) today’s schedule or itinerary is planned by me, tml is by baby, lol… since today is mother’s day, me, baby, her mom and niu niu went to baby’s church to celebrate mother’s day. they gotten gifts from the church itself for the event. after dat we went for breakfast at kfc at northpoint. the actual celebration starts in the afternoon.

DSC00615at ard 2pm we set off to our 1st designated place. when we boarded our car, i presented the 1st gift to baby. (was actually accidentally revealed to baby yesterday… cos she peaked! :P) so giving her the present, she opened on the spot, haha… it is a mother’s day swatch limited edition. to the right is the picture of the watch~ tis was supposed to be the 1st surprise for her, haha… oh well…

after which we set off towards east coast for our planned cycling activity. along the way, told baby dat i need to go technopreneur to visit my ‘teacher’. i supposed she find something fishy la, haha.. but then still asked her to help me to check out the place on the map. we took quite some time to find the place as it was very ulu. it is somewhere in the industrial park at bouna vista. after reaching, i told her to wait in the car while i go up to find my ‘teacher’. when i reached the 1st floor, i called the real person (salesperson) of angelflorist, where i bought the flowers for her. tis is the 2nd surprise i was gg to give her, lol… supposed to ask the person to deliver to her house one, but then morning need go church, so went dwn personally to collect.

the interesting thing is, i reached the place, the person told me 8th floor, so i took one of the lift. when i tried to press 8, it does not respond, so i tried 7, ehh it does. was tinking of walking up the stairs from 7th floor. but who knows, when i reached 7th floor, all access to the stairs were blocked/locked! i was like erm… hw to get to 8th floor ar?… so i went bck dwn, tried the other lift from another area. yeah, tis time can go 8th floor. but wth? after reaching 8th floor, i was locked outside the main area! so i quickly called the person and she took the flowers to me. she told me dat i was at the cargo area, i was supposed to access thru the passenger area at the other side of the building. lol… confusing place. but nonetheless, i brought the flowers bck to my car and to baby, hehe… see the actual picture!!

after presenting the 2nd and last present to her, we proceeded to east coast park. we reached there ard 3.40pm. then went for a short bite first, cos didnt wan to squeeze wif the crowd during dinner. we ordered quite some food there, 10 chicken satays, 1 sting ray, 1 veg (kai lan), 2 chicken wings and 2 cups of sugar cane (1 wif lemon). took us some 1hr to finish up the food. after dat we went to cycle.

we rented a 2 person bicycle for $9. starting time was 4.50pm. n so we proceeded to cycle towards changi direction. after being in seclusion for so long, we had difficulty starting the cycling process, haha… was quite wobbly when we started cycling. but due to my gd technical skills and intelligent coordination, i was able to resume my control. :P tis was my first time cycling so far towards changi. didnt know the route was so long and far. we cycled there and bck and then to the other side (just before the seafood restaurants) and back. by then it was 5.45pm already. so we rested a while, had 1 ice-cream and proceeded to parkway parade for our ‘shopping’.

DSC00626we went there to see see the shopping centre and also bought 2 car items back home. 1 is a anti-slip mat and the other is 2 cushions for the neck at the front car seats. we also had 1 large cup of ice milk tea from mos burger as we were very thirsty. we finally bought 1 last item for xiao niu, a collection of soft toy fruits. there, the picture is there~~~

we went home after the last item bought. we really enjoyed today the whole day outside, and of course, nx time will be together wif xiao niu liao, haha…

the walk there was quite hot due to the sun so bright~~ we were all sweaty already when we reached there. yeah, it looked quite grand, but actually there is nth much for u to see in the day. i believe the nite view will be much nicer. we made our way there by leg, n we made our way bck by leg too, lol… we were all so thirsty and tired after climbing the slope from the grd floor to the 2nd floor of marina sq. so we sat down at star bucks to hv some drinks. after that we walked to suntec and visited the carrefour for some shopping. bought some $54.55 worth of items. then we headed bck by 7+pm. we were all so dead beat that all of us slpt ard 12, including xiao niu, haha…
