Here I come, November

And so NaBloPoMo starts. Here I am with the first post for this month!

 

It was, like usual, a busy day. I’m always busy on Saturday. Choir at morning (which I attended late because of my stupid morning stomachache that made me go to the toilet back and forth). Sang 2 tango songs. Very emotional. And tiring.

Then I had brunch at a dim sum place in Sunshine Plaza. I think it was called Victor’s Kitchen. Great dim sum although it’s sad that the waitresses can only speak Chinese. Bah. Went back to school to do EWS (Enterprise Web Solutions) assignment. We’re supposed to create an enrichment course portal. I realized we started late and I realized there’s SO MUCH to be done, but I hope we can strive anyway.

OTW to EWS computer lab (which is, strangely, located in School of Economics/School of Social Sciences. Huh.), I remembered that there’s Podcamp Singapore going on. I intended to attend the event religiously but hell the things that I need to get done was just eating me up. So I thought, ah hell I’ll just drop by and say hi to some blogger friends and then go. So I went to the room. Saw DK, Farinelli, Miccheng, Claudia present. Daphne went out to talk to me (and to go toilet) and told me that I should just go in. It was 12.56 PM and the talk is supposed to be over at 1.00 PM so I thought, again, ah what the heck, just barge in and wait until it’s over, and then I can mingle around with blogger friends, and go.

“Sorry it’s already 1 PM and time’s up”
“Ah sorry, just 1 more question. Very short.”

La di da. As I checked the clock, it was 1.25 PM. 

Immediately went off from the room and said hi-bye to bloggers and rushed off to the lab. Helping to search for automatic way to create website after an event happened (in Microsoft Share Point – the urgh thing, I might say).

A friend, Olivia, came to the lab and told everyone that today is another friend, Edwin’s bday! She bought a cake and told us to go out and celebrate.

She took picture of my EWS group and the cake!

Yes I know my hair looks hideous. GAH.

Happy birthday Edwin Tan!

And it was time for my piano lesson! And guess what! I didn’t bring my piano books to school! Yeay!

Sigh. Lucky I realized it quite early so I rushed off from the lab and went to the bus stop to catch the bus home. Waited and waited until at least 15 minutes. I turned impatient. Checked SBS Iris and HA HA HA, GUESS WHAT. SBS Iris next bus : 10 minutes. You gotta be kidding me.

Anyway bus came and I went home and took my piano books and I quickly flagged a cab to get me to the piano lesson place. (this is an attempt of shortening sentences. I realize I did too many things)

Piano lesson finished, bf picked me up and we ate at Ayam Penyet Ria at Square 2! YEAY! <3

Photo by Shellfish. Hehe! I didn’t have time to take photo coz I just tucked in!

Oh well.. What a busy day it was! Imagine how busy the rest of November will be! I have another blog to update for NaBloPoMo so I’ll leave you guys with a video of one of the tangoes I sang : Adios Nonino.

 

Background of the video : it was played during the church wedding of Prince Willem-Alexander (of the Netherlands) and Maxima Zorreguieta. Maxima was born in Argentina and Adios Nonino (meaning : Goodbye, Father) is a popular song from Argentina written by Astor Piazzolla after his father passed away.

Such a sad, depressing song yet beautiful..

Free Cone Day!

The adventure of Cheapskatesylv!

Just like many other cheapskates in the world, Cheapskatesylv decided to join in the fun of getting free ice cream despite her strict diet. (To my dietician, yes I promise I will do more exercises tomorrow.. Promise..)

Cheapskatesylv and her boyfriend, Cheapskatevit, decided to go to Ben n Jerry’s outlet in United Square. Our deduction was that it would be less crowded and it’s nearer to Cheapskatesylv’s home (and automatically Cheapskatevit’s home too. Not that we’re living together).

So we went there and decided to eat first since we’re hungry… And free ice cream will make a great dessert!
We went to Genki Sushi because.. Oh well.. You know that we love sushi..

Genki Sushi is nice.. But what intrigues me is…
Empty conveyor belt.

Empty??

Sigh..

Decided to order a bigger meal instead. I was already thinking of sushi feast.. Oh well.

And so we headed to the 2nd floor to get B&J.. But then.. OMG… It was such a long and unorganized queue! Sooo many students there, although it was just 3 PM.. Sigh..

Without further ado, we quickly took the MRT to Dhoby Ghaut.. To The Cathay of course! Our favourite mall since it’s usually not crowded and thus perfect for lovey-dovey acts (oops).

Well the crowd was horrendous too..

Longer than last year’s! (See the last year’s here)

To ease the boredom, Cheapskatesylv and Cheapskatevit camwhored…

And again, after the ice cream cones are in our hands already! :D

Cheapskatesylv and Cheapskatevit are so happy!

Looking forward for the next year’s free cone day… =P
