my family outing ♥
Sunday, March 29, 2009
a family day. ages since one whole family went out together le. the last time was chinese new year barrh, was it?guess what. we finally visited the singapore flyer! =)
one of the considered latest tourist attraction before the IRs barrh. 
look at this! the photographer has got superb skills horr. no larrh, it is actually the scaled model that is ready for the camera shutter =D
the small little bridge is actually marina barrage. cannot imagine barrh! that will be my next destination =D
the construction of the Marina Bay IR. the tickets would be more worth it after it is completed i guess. hehee.
before that, we went to fill our churning stomachs at Ah Hoi's Kitchen at Traders' Hotel. staff discount is a huge 50% off!
at the lift lobby =D
my parents with a contented expression. as the 4 of us had swiped 7 dishes in total =DDD
had a great sunday this weekend, despite too much walking & standing from shopping. finally spent a fruitful day together with my family with a huge hole in my dad's wallet =P

weeeeeeekend =D
it's weekend again!but only able to keep baby accompanied in the late evening. went for dinner at subway and happened to see baby's cousin and the gf there. after dinner was a walk at the yew tee pasar malam. can say that we are bo liao barrh. we took a try at the kiddy games. and got all so excited about it... -.-
dun play play! they're really fun you know! kinda create competition between the 4 of us. should have seen the guys when they spam all the 50 balls at one go. made a few on-lookers go HAHAHAH. hilarious~
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
out with felicia on friday night after work.
we have been talking about it since before the common tests barrh. hehee.
met up at causeway point for dinner and movie as she is working at jurong island and i was at yishun doing property inspection.
touring around places like the arcade and all the eateries before coming to a decision.
ICHIBAN SUSHI!
bring me to any japanese restaurant and i will be so delightful. =D
the sushi really tempted me instead of the main courses. like always, i know myself.
i think we did not order alot, neither is it very little. but it really can fill 2 stomachs of great appetite. hahah. after that it was the movie 'confessions of a shopaholic'. abit copycat from 'the devil wears prada' barrh, we both thought. abit exaggerated too. never fail to sleep a wink when i went for movie at fridays. =X but overall, i still rate it a 3/5. the funny thing was, there were 2 indian ladies who came into the movie theatre after the show had began for like 5 mins. guess what, they held the same seat number as us! all of us were kinda puzzled by it. but it was only after i was back home then i took a look at my tickets. we had gotten the tickets at the 725pm show instead of our 945pm one. totally blur attendant when we were purchasing our tix and the screwed-up system =/woah.. afterall it was a fulfilling yet tired day. can sense a surge of excitement rush through me as the weekend is here to visit again. =))

Departure (:
Friday, March 27, 2009
The company's monthly "SPORTS DAY" has finally arrived! Was rather curious how it will be like as it is considered the first bonding event with the company. When we reach Hort park, all of us are so happy to see each other more than going for the walk!! hahax. Although the weather was scorching hot, but it was an enjoyable walk as the seven of us chatted throughout the way and we even took a few photos together!! AND! the whole journey wasnt as LONG as what some of my friends told me lar! i think it is only about 2 to 3 km walk.
The few of us [Novri, Anastasia, Huiting, Yi ling and me] went to Vivo for dinner and we continued chatting all the way till 9 plus. It was so fun talking to them and we even planned out what to buy for our colleagues on our last day of work.
A blink of my eye, one month of our attachment has passed and soon, it will the last day of our attachment. Sometimes, i am still wondering if i will miss the working life there as well as the colleagues although i have only know them for about 2 months.
But... still, i will enjoy the remaining days with my colleagues first! (:

they can be totally different at the hind scene. who state that there is a standard behaviour to people working in established companies?
some of them do take the initiative to break the ice with me by cracking some super duper lame jokes. maybe you can go the Savills website to seach for the person in charge of valuation. i went to surf their webby before and came to work only to realise that Daniel Ee isnt such as stern as i thought he would be. same goes for everyone there barrh. =Dthey assist me help in reaching for ring files on the highest shelves, collect printed materials, sign attendance, answer my queries, etc...anyway, i think i should learn to be more independent and start to say 'NO'. should also put myself in front of others instead of the other way round because this IAP thingy is really my twenty-five credit units!
hopefully no more 'sai gang' warrior starting next week =)

my liaison officer has been quite nice to us, i should say.she will get back to us asap whenever we text her any questions we have. sometimes she even text us more than a LO, much more like a friend. =))and! she's another person whom i see so blur that she is not even sure of the deadline of our weekly log. the deadline that she gave us was monday, 3 days after the working week and yet she thought that she is giving us 1 more day extension!C: ohh yes, wei fang. see how the week long training has changed my memory. it's ok, let's keep it among the 3 of us.hmm apparently, she thinks that she is giving us one more day of extension without the school knowing. and also, she forgot her student's name -.-after i told her that the deadline for weekly log is a solid one week after the working week, C: really ah? gosh, another memory lapse. ok, i'll give you girls the flexibility lah but mus remember to submit horr.yippee! that's what i wann! didnt want the deadline to be so soon, right on monday itself.=DDmany loves from aivee.

exam results out!
well, i guess this post came abit late?
anw exam results were out last friday.
i believe most of them fare well, can really see that there is intense and close competitiveness in our cohort worr. but of course i am not one of them. HAHA.
but i am more than delighted to achieve my aim. finally gotten something above 3.5, something that i am trying to aim for. hopefully my last semester in ngee ann wont give me an anti-climax when i have to take up the burden of overloading modules.
mood: satisfied~

work has been pretty fine this week.
hmm dun dare to say anything negative about it le barrh.
realised time passes faster and more happily with a positive mindset.
getting along with my colleagues has been fine. i think lunching with them will definitely make your relations with them a better one. the 2 valuers, christine and calesta, whom i have been following for this one week plus are more than willing to teach me things that i dunno. so nice! =Dsome of the ladies in my department look 'cold' but actually they are not de. as for the guys, all they talked about are stock market, leather shoes, cars and at least they do crappp!just hope my internship would be a nice and fruitful experience barrh.anyway, baby and i would meet almost everyday in the morning. surprised that we still have time to meet huh? but it's just that less than 10 mins; where we travel from cck to jurong (3 stations only larrh!) funny us!and we met up for dinner yesterday night at AMK hub. we promised to try the gladiator sandwich another day okie? can you imagine the size of a $22.50 sandwich? *burrrrp*
our cycling trip. 2 days before attachment starts.

Enlistment?!
Sunday, March 15, 2009
Two weeks of attachment has passed but was so busy completing projects that i hardly have time to even meet up with my friends. Maybe study would have been a better choice?? hahax..
But i managed to meet up with Novri and Grace for dinner and we chatted till about 9 plus before we headed home. It has been so long since we gather together like this although this time it was without ivy. SO! ivy!! hope that all FOUR of us can gather together for a meal one of these days huhs. hahax.
Anyway, one of my friends is going into army very soon, like next month?! Kinda sad to hear that although it is very normal that every guy goes into army. Maybe it is the first time to come across someone being enlisted into army so the feeling is like this. hahax. Managed to chat a little even before he goes in so hope that everything would be fine for him when he is in there then!

moodless to work.
Saturday, March 14, 2009
just 5 days of work and ivy SERIOUSLY has no mood to go to work anymore. no kidding. i dunno the reason for this; it might be too little rest for me, not enough new things for me to learn (yet) and too many monotonous stuff for me to do in the office.i can be staring into the screen typing numberous reports, printing and binding work. afterall, i still prefer to go out with valuers to observe them at work. kinda interesting when i see them dealing with clients. it can be challenging too.hoping the better would come...-aivee- finished blogging @ 7.57pm

HAHAHA. =)anyway, i really need time to catch up with all my friends. but my work keeps me hanging there! i counted; work + preparation + travelling time = freaking FOURTEEN HOURS! so that means i am just left with 10 hrs for my sleep and some other leisure time. sighs. -aivee- finished blogging @ 11.29pm

Tuesday, March 10, 2009
imagine doing the same old task for the whole day straight?no one assigned me to any job larrh =(have been typing valuation reports for the whole of today. did around 15 only. =Pand, i realised they do keep ALL the different types of residential and commercial brochures in 2 different biggg cupboards at the back of the office. so so so many that the doors of the cupboards just couldnt close. almost had that urge to throw it out and packed it back nicely again. arghh.. my colleague mentioned that it would be a massive movement. hahaha.friday friday, quickly come!!-aivee- finished blogging @ 10.54pm

Monday, March 9, 2009
first day of internship! =Dwas seriously kinda nervous the day before larrh!and i reached shenton way at 745am instead of the 830am reporting time. hehee. early horr! =P the day seems fine with a short little briefing from the executive secretary in the company. was 'attached' to my department secretary for the different tasks that i am gonna do. even able to do valuation reports even though it is just transferring data from the template. and i really cant believe it! i have the sudden interest in valuation in the 1st time of my life!! used to detesttttt that alot when i'm doing the module during last semester (i think). hopefully tml's gonna be more interesting. most prolly will be going down on site to do property inspection/valuation with one of the senior colleagues. weeeee~even though i still gotta be in the office in the morning larrh! >.<anyway, my liaison officer is nice enough to really care for us. she texted us the night before work and just now. trying to ask how we are doing already. tehee. =)))tml's gonna be a brand new day again! yawns~-aivee- finished blogging @ 10.58pm

cycling day w baby.
Sunday, March 8, 2009
one more day before attachment starts!baby asked me out to cycle. arghh! initially i was too lazy even to move out of my bedroom. but fortunately, i was a little more motivated to go; after recalling the food that we consumed the day before. bt panjang to cck to bt batok. and guess what! when we were passing by BBDC, we heard someone shouting hi to us. and baby realised it was ben! benjamin lin! so surprised (and idiotic) too see him though. he was with ming xiang to refund his money for whatever past driving lessons. god knows. had a little chat and esso ice cream with them before departing. this time, he kinda promised time together next weekend. HAHA.anyway, it was almost a 4 hr cycling journey. i guess my stamina is not a problem as compared to the more unbearing weather. the sun was so strong even at 4 plus and i had to cycle fast towads the tree shade. but at least we did some exercise today.love baby! <3-aivee- finished blogging @ 10.57pm

2 more days before losing our freedom!
Saturday, March 7, 2009
hmm today's initial plan was to make our complimentary trips down to Escape with novri, howkiat, maurice and me.
however, due to some unforeseen circumstances such as novri's last min plan back to indo (even though it is just a day), we kinda cancelled our Escape plan already. haha.
well, in the end, the 3 of us met up (without novri) with only having lunch in mind. from minced meat noodles at Kovan to bowling at Superbowl to fried chix wings at Seletar airbase!
i met 2 nice uncles who looked like really pro and experienced players just beside our lane. long time since i played bowling and it was duper embarrassing when the ball fell into its 'drain'. many many times when i tried to strike. -.- and stupid howkiat was teasing me bout it. luckily i managed to catch up with his score at the end; not that badly.
anyway, howkiat brought us to a new place that i believed not many had been there barrh. high chances are, it's surprising to come to know that there is a restaurant-like dining place located in seletar airbase, east camp. SURPRISE!
the main aim for most people who went there at night is for some drinks and their recommended buffalo wings. we did not give that a try though!overall, the food there is still worth trying ;)
look at the setting! not the 2 guys BUT eating under the blue sky with white clouds. hehee.
even after our dinner of fried wings, cheesy fries, BBQ combo and beef burgers, howkiat still wanna go back to changi village for their goreng pisang! you see how much he reminisces the taste huh! =D and he only made that decision when we were already reaching into bt. panjang area >.<
and actually benjamin wanted to meet us up for lunch or something. unfortunately, he suddenly had a "chit-chatting session" with his "sec sch friends". thus, broke his promise until around 9pm. he seemed lazy and wouldn't even budge when we told him we are heading towards changi and he did not wanna join us. he thought newton would be a better option. ohh well...
back home after an almost-full day of touring around singapore for food! kinda tired but i guess the car is more exhausted than us barrh. HAHA. will seriously need real work-out tml.
one more day to no-freedom days... =(
