As the months go by

Oh well, I guess March isn't very much exciting...nothing much happened...

4 & 5 March 2011:

Attended the Singapore Palliative Care Conference 2011 with Yasotha...wooo...I didn't know that there are so many passionate kind souls around...I really salute them! After the conference, I really don't think I would able to go into palliative field...it is so taxing and draining for me...

12 March 2011:

Sr Jocelyn asked a speaker to come give a talk on sexuality to the gynaecological cancer patients as an event for the cancer support group, she is a Clinical Sexologist, how many of these have you ever heard? She is the one and only one in Singapore! Guess what! And I got to meet her!

I must tell you, after her session I really learnt a lot! Yes, REALLY, no joke! But what have I learnt, is for me to know and for you to find out...hahaha...

19 March 2011:

I am so excited about this day! YC is here in Singapore! It has been 1+ years since I last saw her! So we met up for lunch right after she arrived in Singapore...then went around shopping and lastly we had dinner before we parted...so much to talk about and so much to catch up! Can't wait to see her again...hopefully next year! My want in going back to further my studies were fuelled by this meet up! Haha...

Went to this vegetarian restaurant in Novena Square...had a very nice meal

This is a vegetarian satay and I tell you it is very nice!

Then after walking around City Hall, stopped at Xin Wang's cafe at Marina Square for tea break...had 蔴薯and 菠萝包

Haha...I didn't know that they take it literally and put a slice of pineapple inside...

Then we continued to walk around and stopped at Canele for dinner...

But we didn't have a proper meal as we were still full after the tea break...so we ordered some desserts instead...yum yum!

21 March 2011:

Another good news! I am moving to somewhere near my workplace! Weee...so I don't have to waste so much time in travelling! Yep, I am moving into XF's house...she bought one in Buona Vista, near Holland Village and so she has been busy buying furniture and such...so today her new sofa, fridge and rice cooker will be delivered to my place for temporary storage...

That's all for March...so here comes April which is a wee bit more exciting...

2 April 2011:

Ya Shu invited us to go over to her house for a meal and Wii session! Actually it is supposed to be in March but she was down with illness near that date so we pushed back to this day...but anyway, we had an extremely nice time there...my first time playing Wii and my first time baking a pizza in Singapore!

Thanks Ya Shu for opening her house to us! And also for letting me mess up her kitchen! Haha...I haven't bake a pizza since I came back from Melbourne and she granted my wish!

So here are the ingredients

Then after that, quick fry the vegetables and lay them on top of the pizza base

Then throw lots of cheese on top and you are ready to bake

Ta da, here are the results...this is the one with meat

While this is the pure vegetables one

Ya Shu also made us a dish

This is it! Very nice! A Jamie Oliver's recipe!

After the lunch, we played Wii! Doing some crazy stuff...hahaha...

Dawn and Ya Shu playing tennis

Dawn and Yasotha playing boxing

3 April 2011:

Supposed to have a gathering with the 6 other 'princesses' but in the end most of them could not make it, and in the end left the 3 of us...so JC and SF came over to my place since we don't know where to go...had a relaxing gathering doing nothing much...haha...what a day!

17 April 2011:

Attended an orientation at Nacli as grassroot leader...hmm didn't want to attend it at first but Christine said it is a must, so no choice...the place is at South Buona Vista Road, which is near my office which means it is VERY FAR from my house...haiz...didn't expect that I have to go all the way there as if I am going to work...only one work to summarize the whole thing...BORING! Did I learn anything new? NO! Did I get to know any new friends? NO! What a waste of time...

29 April 2011:

Yeay! The long awaited day has finally come! Yup yup! Nat asked me if I wanted to go to their concert, I agreed without hesitation! Haha...actually not to listen to their singing but to see them personally! Hahahaha...my idol!

But before their concert, there is an autograph signing session at City Square Mall! So this day after work, both myself and Dawn went to IKEA to get a photo frame for Shahla's farewell gift first then after that went down to City Square Mall myself as I end work earlier than both Nat and Eve...

When I reached the mall, there were already tonnes of people queue-ing up! Can't believe this! And I heard that some of them queued since 3pm! Crazy! The event will only start at 8pm goodness me...although I reached there at 6pm but the crowd is getting more...since Nat will be slightly late due to her clinics so I started queue-ing first...also helped to collect the poster where they were supposed to be signing on! Then Nat reached about 7pm but Eve was still stuck at the office attending to a patient...so no choice, we just queue and wait for her...but she didn't came until the signing session ended! Ooppss...but still she managed to get a glimpse of them! Hehe...

Then after that, we went for our dinner! Yea didn't get to eat anything, luckily I bought some snacks and managed to munched them while queue-ing...

You know what? I used to tell myself that those people queue-ing up to see their idols are crazy...and I can't believe that I am doing the same thing today! Hahaha...faint...but no regrets! I got to see HIM within close distance!

Okay, this is what we have been waiting for...to meet the HK actors!

Look at the crowd!

There are also lots of them standing on different levels, but those are mainly onlookers...see the fans? All came prepared with the name board and everything...which are very annoying coz they blocked everyone's view! Even after being warned by people at the back, they still ignore

Me and Nat...waiting eagerly

That is the poster that they will be signing on!

Finally they are here!

Saying hello to everyone

Then there is this game playing session where the people who managed to answer questions by the host before the actors arrived get to go on stage to be close up with them! Envy! Moses is so cute!

Ron is so cheeky!

They are still playing games but I forgot and also can't see what exactly is happening on stage as we were too far back

This would be a perfect picture minus the head!

Then the signing session starts...this is Kevin

Ron!

Moses

Bosco

Getting more nervous and excited as we get nearer and nearer to the stage

The signing session ends and they are bidding farewell...sob sob

This picture is well taken! Hahaha...as if he is looking my way...okay I am disillusioned...anyway, see you guys tomorrow!

Eve finally reached! Us and the posters!

The poster and the signatures!

Had a very very late dinner

30 April 2011:

Finally the day is here! The Concert! Although I don't think that it will be a fantastic one, but anyway I haven't been to a concert throughout my life so I will take this opportunity to do so! Haha...and at the end of the whole thing, I am still impressed by their singing but I learnt so much more about them other than the persona portrayed by them on screen! Something to take away still...phew...

So we met up earlier before the concert so that we have time to walk around Sentosa

After dinner, we went in to the Convention Centre...I wasn't prepared for the photo...haha...anyway 3 of us were there, including Nat' bf

This scene really looks like what I saw on tv

Okie the show is about to start

They sang a couple of numbers together

Before they split into solo session...and here, there were discussion who should go first

In the end, Moses lost the scissors, paper, stone so he went first

Then, Ron performed next

Go Ron Go!

Next was Bosco...didn't know this rocker side of him

Then he asked a fan to come up the stage and he performed a love song to her, she was the representative of his fan club and she received his gift on behalf of the rest

Then last was Kevin

Nat's favourite, so she wanted to take a close up shot with him and we helped her...haha

After Kevin's solo, they came up together...they are currently at the back stage discussing how to make an entrance

They wanted louder cheer before they come up...haha...

So they performed a few numbers

Gave out the remainders of the posters

Then after that, they were bidding farewell but people shouted for encore

So they decided to perform a very last song

And that was really The End...see you guys on screen then!

Last words: Hope things will be better as the year goes by...
