X I A N G Y U: Standard

Cny is gonna be over very soon! Guess most ppl enjoyed themselves cause they get to receive all the fat red packets, gather w friends and family and have nice food. I enjoyed mine too! Ever since I can remember, maybe 4 years old or 5, I've been going overseas for holidays w dad and mum during cny. I've been to quite a few countries like china, Australia, Vietnam, Indonesia, Cambodia, Japan, hong kong, Taiwan, south Africa. Some countries I been to more than two times and still enjoyed myself. Especially countries like Japan! Been to toyko twice, then Osaka then Okinawa last was hokkaido and I will still convince dad to go Japan next year!

As for cny 2012 dad n mum brought me to Hokkaido. And for the first time in my life I see so much snow and it was snowing non stop during the 7 days I was there. It's the. Weather the temperature and the snow make me have very deep impression of Hokkaido tht make me wanna go again and I won't get bored of it I guess. This trip is the most fulfilling one because I get to buy everything I want to. Though it's not alot cause hokkaido is like the countryside of Japan. But still is everything I WANT! Was glad that mum brought me to cold wear to get all the winter stuff if not I'll be shivering the whole time. But overall everything is good there! Food is good, weather is good, things are good and the people are nice too. The only thing is I regret giving up on my Jap Language so I'm going back for class again! The only thing left is to convince dad. HAHA.

My CNY is well spent but I didn't receive red packets 'cause I didn't have time to go house visiting so I guess this year I won't have extra allowance alr -.-

THough I didn't receive a whole lot of red packet but it feels like the best CNY ever!!!!!!!

Was craving for Ikea meatballs last week and asked Anna out to satisfy my cravings! Dinner and walked around ikea to look for the stuff I want. Then off to downtown east for movie, 23:59.

Next day went for a movie premier with Anna. It was Kaiji 2 though I didn't watch the first movie I still went. Why? 'cause I get to see Tatsuya Fujiwara, the main lead. He was also the main lead in death note. After movie Anna went off to zouk. The night was fun but part of it was ruined some how. Shan't elaborate on that.

Had buffet dinner on this Monday at the straits cafe. Food was not bad. But I still prefer oyster from the rise and the line. Haha. Wanna go there for buffet again! Movie after dinner. The show was kinda draggy and ultra slow. Don't recommend anyone to watch it. Make everyone feel like sleeping. Beancurd for supper then home sweet home.

Had dinner on Friday at Porn's, Liang Seah Street. Super spicy Tom Yum Soup which I got choked after the second mouth. Then off to Shaw Lido for Puss in Boots at 1150pm. The first question that came out from my mouth when I came up from the escalator was "Eh! Where's the McDonalds?" HAHA! I forgot they renovated the place and Macs and the rest of the food are no longer there. The last time I went they are still there. That's how long I haven't been to Lido. Had about 50mins before the movie start so went to walk around and decided to go Orchard Tower for a stroll. LOL! I wish I'm a guy so I can go into one of the pub in Orchard Tower and see how it's like but too bad I'm a girl! & I realise the mama shop in Orchard Tower really offers a variety & large quantity of condoms! LOL! Puss in Boots was nice. Make me wanna get a cat so badly. Cat lovers should definitely watch it. I wanted to watch it because the voice of Puss was Antonio Banderas, my favourite Spanish actor! After movie walked over to Macs at Centrepoint, had a drink then HOME SWEET HOME!

Had lunch with mum and dad on Sunday then off to Arab Street & Chinatown to get my stuff. Back home and started sewing. Wasn't really a perfect clutch and it's the wrong size but I think next one will be better(: Met Pris at Aljunied Mrt to go for dinner at Everything with Fries. Wanted to have crab but meet up late so we decided on Everything with fries instead. Walked to PP after dinner to get Sharetea, walked ard them Home Sweet Home (:

Best part of this week is that I thought my iPhone died on me and I felt so fucked up. When I thought the phone spoiled I was very determined to get a new phone even if it means that I won't have any allowance left for food. But end up everything was fine. Phone was fixed and able to be use again! Haha. Anw I suddenly got hook up with doing all the diy necklace using jump rings and other diy things. Will post them up when I'm done with it. (:
