14 July, Sunday
Jogged, dinner with papa and mama Tan at home

Marinated chicken with roasted potatoes


Impromptu meetup with Felly at Cineleisure; caught Pacific Rim. Not a really big fan of science fiction movies but it was pretty good!


lololol


And then we had supper at McDonald's. I tried the Rendang burger and once again, I'm not a fan of malay food so it wasn't to my liking. Had a hearty chat with this girl until 3am

Was telling Felly how my friend used to make fun of me for shaking salt off my fries... My friend.





15 July, Monday
Went to school for some Mathematics and Economics workshop and chatted with Charles and Kaiyi for a while. This Charles really gets on my nerves. The day before, he was like trying to self-invite himself to going to the workshop with me. So I saved a seat for him. When he arrived, he actually sat in between two strangers and I'm like whaaaat, waste my time.

Broke fast an hour later T-T jogged at 12am and spent 4 hours trying to enroll for classes online sigh

16 July, Tuesday
Jogged before night shift. Felly came to accompany me. To be honest, I wanted to be alone. I mean isn't that the purpose of taking up night shifts; to be alone. So it wasn't a productive night for me. I mean I'm thankful that she bothered to cab there just to look for me but I really didn't feel the need to entertain anyone for the entire week.





17 July, Wednesday
4am at Starbucks:



Went to Paragon in the afternoon to have my wisdom teeth stitches removed. It cost $48. Um like give me a pair of scissors, I'd gladly do it myself.

Worked with Gen at the slab and stayed up with her until her last bus arrived. The only time I stayed that long at that bus stop was when.... T-T

So yeah anyway, yada yada felt helpless because my dear girl was nearly in tears and all I could do was avoid her gaze to mitigate the chances of her breaking down yada yada cliche me

Her smile makes me sad


18 July, Thursday
Went to Four Seasons for an interview with both the General and Hotel Manager. Met this junior who was applying for her internship there as well.

Me: They're really nice, the interviews are usually informal
...
Me: So how was it
Her: He asked me for the benefits of spa products

HAHAHA I actually calmed her down and the manager just had to ask her a tough question

Night shift and um yeah, Felly came to look for me again. I didn't even get to finish up my MasterChef episode (tried to be cool about it, but totally raging inside)

Overcharged a customer 3 bucks, bought a bagel from Starbucks with that amount of money. Hold on for karma

19 July, Friday
5 HOURS OF SLEEP AND BACK TO THE AIRPORT FOR MY NEXT SHIFT (cue "siao eh!")

Hello karma. My float had a shortage and how much was it, $3. How in the world. I can't even comprehend how coincidental it all was

20-21 July, Saturday-Sunday
Worked at the slab

Day 1: Talked about sex and dicks (from the sizes to how to measure them) Meh used to such explicit topics, with Jo Lee and hb
Day 2: HAD THE MOST BORING TIME AT WORK HAHAHAHA. Byron and Jo Chu were just stoning at the slab and we don't really have much in common ok awkward...



Thank goodness I got off work. Felly and Fatin had arrived by then. Went to 328 Katong Laksa for some dinnur!!!

Me: Eh got 328 Katong Laksa la! It's at the left!
Felly: No la right side one is the same!
Me: But Gordon Ramsay went to this one!!! I want to go to this one!!


Ok princess gets what she wants hahahaha I'll shut up. It was my first time trying it and it's pretty good!!!  Don't get why I've never been there before. There's no pork what. Unless they use lard.

Felly: Do you know that this is not halal
Me (to Fatin): Is she trying to making us feel guilty?
Fatin (to me): I think so. Let's just ignore her


HAHAHA okay really don't like it when people try to aggravate my guilty conscience. I know you're concerned about me but can you let me enjoy my food in peace please. Unless there's a clear sign e.g. bacon on my salad then tell me please thankz oh and I spilled lime juice on myself because having been trained to carry a tray, I thought that I could handle three drinks on a tray. Man was I wrong




Went back to I12 Katong to waste time at Honeymoon Dessert where we had Felly's recommended Double-boiled Milk. Fatin and I had a hard time consuming it; it was that bad. Von finally arrived and we had our free ice-cream and waffles!!!




Von: Omg why are you inside (the shop)?
Me: Because I work here?

Von: YOU DO?!









Snapback crew

I hate having my friends over at the slab! Whenever something goes wrong/busy, I have to leave my friends to help my colleagues. Ugh I don't mind helping but I think it's rude to leave halfway through a conversation (many times in fact). Fun impromptu meetup with my cherry blossoms though ^-^

22 July, Monday
Orientation camp at 9am is such a turn off. Made a few friends, left at 3pm, met up with Kaiyi for awhile in school, signed up for a few co-curricular activities, home to sleep. Was supposed to jog but I've been sick thanks to my hectic schedule

KAIYI!!!! (aww forgot to edit this photo)


23 July, Tuesday
I was doing closing and the shop suddenly flooded with customers :( I don't want to handle 3k worth of sales anymore la, took so long just to tally everything. But working with Stephy is so fun HAHAHA she is damn funny. She was all philosophical like, "If you think you can, you can." when I doubted her capability to pass a stage on Candy Crush.

Napped, jogged though I was sick, but not satisfied because it was 2km lesser than my usual.

Spent some time reading our past conversations


Sleepy cats




Today
Worked at the airport, napped. Prepared breakfast for tomorrow.


Avocado and poached eggs


Went out to meet my girls at Mink. (hahahahha note to self: refer to drafts) I'm pretty low profile when it comes to clubbing because I don't like how people judge clubbers. Like I don't drink, I don't intentionally grind or make out with strangers and when they try do so, I'd move away. It's somewhat a therapy for me in terms of dealing with all the crap like losing people, having to face couples 24/7. LIKE THESE THINGS HAVE BEEN TAKING A TOLL ON ME. But no matter how hard I try to explain, everyone's judgement would be: a (female) clubber will always be a slut.

So I give up. I'm not able to proof my point.

29 June, Saturday
Kith for brunch with Chewz (THE FOOD WAS DAMN GOOD, I'M DEFINITELY GOING THERE AGAIN!!!)


Duck and apple sandwich
Green's Breakfast

Tried shopping on a weekend, but failed miserably. We ended up with nothing! But the food we had for the whole day made up for it! Headed over to Marmalade Pantry for early dinner

Shakes~

Crabmeat salad (really good too)


Best bread pudding of my life


This girl bought macarons from TWG for me ^-^ awwww zankyew zankyew zankyew



And then we watched The Heat!!

2 July, Tuesday
Met this crazy girl who was eating her chilli cheese fries at Carls Junior. Walao I never knew such good food existed.

Shopped and then had Popeyes for dinner



3 July, Wednesday
I made a reservation at Pizzeria Mozza at 2:30pm and I was late so I was hoping Thai girl would be early but she wasn't! So I think they actually gave away our table to someone else, tsk how rude!


She can haz demonic eye (ok fine enlarged pupil)



Guess what. SHE BOUGHT MY FAV FOOD IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD TOO HAHAHAHAHA


I took half an hour to walk to CDC Ubi and I waited for an hour for my turn. Turns out that I queued at the wrong counter and better yet, the system was down.

NIGHT SHIFT

4 July, Thursday
I actually went straight to school after my night shift! Was an hour late for my enrollment talk;

Guy: My name is Kiewi
Me: Like the fruit ah

So that's the name of my second friend in my new school.

Just my new friend and I acting close


5 July, Friday
Yay I managed to sign up for my Provisional Driving License! Bought momster's cake from Cedele

Dinner at Carousel for mom's birthday dinner



6 July, Saturday
Woke up to find that Danial didn't wake me up for Gordon Ramsays' appearance at 328 Katong Laksa. So I rushed down and reached at 12:30pm HAHAHA I was freaking lucky because Ramsay reached at 1pm and I still managed to get his autograph first nyehehe suckas




When I was shoving my phone to him, he was like, "Another phone?! We're ruining all these phones!" And I befriended a girl who said that we should all shout his name to get his attention AND IT WORKED. I got a picture with the man himself HAHAHAHAHAH SHUT UP



So I stood on a potted plant and got mud on my jeans and shoes. The things I do for Gordon Ramsay:




Please don't mind my happy face


Dinner with kitty at Everything With Fries followed by Despicable Me 2 BEE DOH BEE DOH BEE DOH





7 July, Sunday
Family gathering, I guess. I wanted to catch Gordon Ramsay at the cook-off but crowds scare me

8 July, Monday
Burger King breakfast with Fatin and lunch with her at the secret spot. We both really really really can't stand overly negative people who flood our timelines with mindless tweets such as, "I can't believe I trusted you.", "I will never know until I ask." every second of the day!!! (UH THEN I SUGGEST YOU GET YOUR MOFO CLOSURE ON)

Hung out with Fatin and Von after work and we talked about best friends. Okay mostly Von's. I realised I've never had a best friend from work before and I never knew it'd be possible!

Fatin: Von, why do you keep polaroids of yourself with you?!
Von: In case someone sees that I'm not bad looking and decides to return them to me
Fatin: The pictures are blur
Von: Oh it makes them wonder about how I actually look like

I love my bimbos very much

Went to Paragon to have my wisdom teeth removed. I thought both teeth were only on one side but they turned out to be on each side! Oh well, both bottom teeth had to be removed surgically. It was honestly the scariest experience of my life. I was trembling when I heard the drilling and cracking




11 July, Thursday
Met Limin at Suntec City and I was struggling to eat my porridge because apparently Teochew porridge means rice with soup added wah lame. I can't even chew and I had to swallow the rice.

Headed to Starbucks and spent ages there because we can



12 July, Friday
Four Seasons, shopped, Four Seasons, shopped.

Met chewz for dinner



Today
Yay baked some mini peach cheesecakes which turned out to be delish. Went to the slab to look for Jeremie but then I saw ahem so yup, turned around and walked back



-----

Things are going to remind me of him and it is so damn hard to put up a strong front. It's so hard wehhhh u________u

So I actually depend on distractions a lot. So much that I didn't realise that the upcoming week would be filled with work, well technically 6 out of 7 days.
