anyway, it got to a point where i've decided that enough is enough. nothing is going to change my mind. i will probably get bashed up by close friends for saying this, it seems i cannot mellow down for the good of me. really, truly cannot.
not that i haven't tried.
i was whining to cat last night that i seemed to be losing my edge. cat thinks it's normal - and a good thing nonetheless. being less aggressive makes you more attractive to the locals, she quipped.
as much as i appreciate her concerns about something innate in me, it's tough to change a quality that identifies myself.
i know when cat reads this, she is going to shake her head.
but one day, i will do it because i want to. :)
*************************************************************************************
lately, i haven't been taking many pictures. it wasn't because i had grown out of it. simply put, i had maxed out the card memory space and now reliant on phone memory. i do still love whipping out my phone camera for pictures. it's the most handy thing around when all you have sometimes, is just your phone. very convenient, really.
taken with row's cam (which i like because it's cased in an attractive shade of pink) on one singing occasion with the gang after a beach session
celebrated sis' 24th this month with a humble group in a park
we've been hanging out late for the past few weekends. way past what we could handle. sometimes i think, are we denying our age?
quarubared with cat, cia, terence and friends on the friday that just passed.
quarubared with cat, cia, terence and friends on the friday that just passed.
where's three?
terence is simply never good at being candid
not that im very good at it either
the girls with ah meng's impersonator and very predictable terence
my lovely ladies :)
aw sweet ninjas
so tight :)
don't you just love happy people?
9 sets of smiling sparklies :)
the groupies on friday
joby and i baring our teeth for the cam
eugene striking a pose between us
terence not wanting to be left out of it
nothing to do with quarubar - something i had with cia for dinner at din tai fung (DTF) last week, azuki red bean/glutinous rice. i like my sticky rice, kuehs, and desserts.
attended joanna's art gallery at substation on friday call Two Right Feet (a group they formed)
i was intrigued by the group name so i asked her about it and i thought it was pretty clever: we draw because we can't dance
made small talk with her artist guy friend who likes drawing cats. and he shared with me his reason for keeping cats as pets. the same reason why i had once contemplated keeping cats before - cats are independent and suits my busy lifestyle better.
our tower of green beer - apparently i thought it was smooth but terence didn't
cia's idea of candid was looking at terence while cat took this picture
terence is a mess - he refused a blinding closeup shot
cat to me: you are going to spoil your eyes
me: *grins* i know! but this is so cool! *smiles brilliantly for camera*
flirting friends, blatantly so.
with joby who's unaware of the blinding flash
with terence who hates my camera but poses anyway so as not to be blackmailed with ugly photos
with eug who always makes me look fatter by angling his face behind mine
with cat cat who is super responsible about drinking and driving because she loves us enough to want to send us home in one piece
with emily who just graduated with honours for her fashion degree
with moon moon whose mom blatantly thinks we're totally lesbianic because we meet like 9 days a week
with lorraine whom we knew about that day through terence - pretty girl
gathered at Curry Favor with the SIMmies sometime last week.
it was prawns for me baby - i've been eating lots of prawns lately. my liking for prawns is heavily dependent on experiences. the better the experiences, the more incessant the cravings. and vice versa. i can't seem to live without eating prawns recently.
breaded soft shell crab with plum sauce was a go for me
but the age cheese chikuwa was not - it was really just battered fishcake and cheese (normal fare turned fancy)
my feminine ladies
with demure looking cat
with lovely vivien
with the steady guy - tianlin aka tl
in many unspoken ways, i really appreciate the efforts we made to keep in touch. speaks a lot for the original size of our SIM group. and because of that, i felt it proper to make an introductory comment for each photo.
egg tart from chinatown - something i will never refuse even on a healthy diet
fish based soup sapporo ramen at Miharu - loved the savoury taste
crystal loved this pan fried gyoza dish
"egg yolk" mix of vinegar and chilli oil was a great dip for the gyoza
bumped into anya and firuz (they were headed for eM bar) when i was with cia and crystal. the long time friends since my liquid days are about to hold their wedding/solemnization ceremony at the arts house - crazily good idea - this 090909. how sweet!
enroute to meeting the anderson gang
josh examining chris' birthday present
with katt the tube loving girl
josh looking smug
after dinner plans lands us in a beer session
YCC looking prominently serious in shirt
with peiqi and katt
peiqi messing with ycc's "little ponytail" - the dude just got too busy with work to go for a haircut!
as cute as can be
seriously i am getting worse at self shots
the black society
a xin wang (cafe) promotion left chris with a surprise gift
the other half of the table
our half
perfect in black!
with kujen and jesting friends behind
welcoming the dude back from perth with a proper photo
ever serious YCC in pink! now, that's what i always believes - "a real man knows how to wear pink!"
the overnight singing party snacks
the girls
the stylish table set
freaking stylish can
i loved the night
we caught up lots
too cool for a proper picture - skewed picture taken by me
loved this - taken by josh
brimming with affection for the girls
with two happy guys and one wearied chris
josh helming the mic
yong an's angsty side
always looking good this one :)
no matter how many teeth i bared, i know she still loves me.
still cheery and bright eyed at 5am
definitely doesn't feels like 5am at all
taken at 6 plus in the morning rendered a lifeless looking chris with chirpier beings side by side
thoughtful manda panda gave katt and i a bottle each during our previous dinner date @thecentral
the white bit fizzles in the mouth
it's unique, i love it and i'm going to get more!
i need to rave about this ebi ramen dish at bishamon (basement of raffles city) which we stumbled upon by chance. i've been consecutively having this every week with cia for either lunch/dinner. it is that good. the tender egg is pure heaven.
cia's tonkatsu i think
after work activity with cia - just hanging out constitutes as one.
i picked this out for her because i think it accentuates her neck
my sophisticated cia
lovely candid shot
met gideon for ramen dinner one thursday night circa 2-3 weeks ago
ramen is something cia and i never tire of
definitely worthy of its status for the ramen
dessert was light but satisfying
this is the last beach picture in my phone
i realized i have not been to the beach for ages ever since the knee injury
blading session turned singing because of the rain
had an impromptu dinner date with bestie sheena
lots of ramen photos eh?
radish dish
finally replaced the cranky old ear piece
cool looking pouch
with nifty pockets
the melaka trip churned lots of photos it's crazy to even mention how many.
the coach ride from SIN-Melaka
lounging johan
11-12 of us boarded 3 cabs and it took our group a freaking long time to get to a'farmosa. our bodies ached from the 1.5hours cab ride cos the driver lost his way around the massive resort.
im glad i still looked fresh faced when terence wanted to grab a shot with me
with roomies aka terence's colleagues (i actually find myself missing them from time to time) - great girls
well stocked you say?
with pearly (taken by terence's frosted up cam)
frosty pool shot

lucky thing the coach fetches us to and fro
jobs rocking it out
ditzy vivian reaching out for me (a real sweetheart who's constantly looking out for me despite me hearing from terence that she's pretty much a klutz herself)
sipping alcohol mix from the mineral bottle which belonged to one of my 3 roomies i think
looking sober but not really
the convertium gang
with eug who's definitely NOT sober
with unsober eug and victor
make it two unsober people
megawatt smile of job's
the horny people
the sisters, emily and pearly, with eug
second night of the festival

quarubared again last friday with crystal, cat and cia
with my dear cat
the wind got a little out of control
i reckon this is the first of crystal's "make a stupid face" command
this is mine - hardly stupid
cia's grinning face
palm faced
lovely pic of crys
cia's idea of humour
love this - if only you could see the heavy duty fan below the chair
