Im thinking to go watch but damn tight nowadays….should i or should i not??

You know, i din really understand that music realli will affect one chill-out mood, until fri. The bunch from osmosis went down to Ballymoon to chill and to hear the duo sing.

But instead, it was a diff duo and the singing was realli horrible. The singer talks more than she sings and her pitch was so high that at some point it became uncomfortable. We cringed at her songs and all mood was gone.

Not that we are choosy though, i actually saw the bartender and the servers cringed at her songs as well. Terrible. Its machiam like her mini concert and there were groups of followers as well. Imagine a group of 7-8 people and all they ordered was like 3 drinks??

Anyway the usual duo will perform on the first week of Sept so i guess we will give Ballymoon a miss next week and resume again when the duo is back.

Next time when we make our reservations, we will check who is singing first. And i quote by Ah Heng:

Us: Hi, can i check if Sxxxxx and Mxxx are performing tonite?
Ballymoon: Oh yes, they are.
Us: Ok and hang up.

Us: Hi, can i check if Sxxxxx and Mxxx are performing tonite?
Ballymoon: Oh, im sorry, they are not performing tonite.
Us: Ok, we are so there.

Ha Ha.

Went for an afternoon movie (Blood Brothers) with bin on Sat. Well the show was alrite but certainly not worth the trip to the cinema.



Proceeded to Shani Maharani (#03-21B, Raffles City Shopping Centre) for dinner. Had this craving for lamb for like 1-2 weeks already so Ah Heng intro this restaurant.

Been there once i think 2 years back when Kahong brought the whole bunch from office there for dinner. The place is realli very authentic from the teak-tables, Indian artefacts, food to the servers…


While waiting for them to start business

Ah Heng highly recommended these few dishes so we took it wholesale and ordered. We had the Tandoori Lamp Chops, Aloo Gobi (cauliflower with potato), Chicken Makhanwala and Naan (Garlic & Plain).






The Lamb Chops were really nice, tender and juicy but i had to cast my vote to the Chicken Makhanwala. The meat is soft and tender and the curry? Heavenly and it goes damn well with the Naan. As for the Aloo Gobi, well i dun usually like cauliflower but this dish, i basically wipe it clean.

The 2 of us were damn full 3/4 into the meal and could not even finish our Naan. Would give it a 4 stars anytime.


Happy after a full meal

Sign off,

There is this dessert shop call 恩点心 near my office @ Market Street. Their Mango Tango (mango sago) is simply heaven. Thick and full of Sago. And they provide delivery as well!!!!

First had it when Ah Heng buy for me to eat. WAH!!! Is nice de loh…..so todae we went again. Yummy!



Had the long awaited dinner with the babes yesterdae. Supposed to meet up last week but i could not make it at the last min so it was postponed to yesterdae.

Dinner was at Waraku @ Central. Tell you, if i were to go Central alone to shop, i confirm plus chop will get lost in the maze loh hahah…..

Me wanted to get the Katsu Curry but since im still in Project Keepfit, decided to just take Zaru Soba but its a tad too plain so i shared the Topen Yaki with Jac.





As usual loh, bitch about ppl but yesterdae topics were kinda educating as well. Noelle was telling us interesting facts about pregnancy and Jac was telling us about her biotech stuffs and how she go about doing the tests. And i got totally freaked out when she told me she had to kill the rat by pulling out the tail.

Pity we all had to leave early as today still got work. Lets do dinner another time on a Fri or Sat instead.

This is a bad start to a season for Man U.

  • Rooney is injured and cannot play for 2 months
  • Ronaldo is suspended for 2 matches
  • Already 3 matches into the season and they have only 2 points to their name.

Yesterday derby match against Man City, hmm I think Man U played generally alrite but can really see the difference w/o Rooney and Ronaldo.

I heard that Nani was as good if not better than Ronaldo but it doesn’t seems so at this point. And Tevez still hasn’t made any impressive impression.

Yesterday also see the appearance of Chris Eagles. I previously seen him played in a match and I tot he was quite good….maybe just lack of experience….and…he is very good looking. Ha ha



I hope Man U slowly picks up their form and protect their title.

Sat was steamboat again. Ha ha a pre celebration for JX as his birthday is this Fri. But did not eat much as firstly, I’m getting a bit sick from all the steamboat recently and also, project keep-fit still undergoing. Ha ha.

After dinner is our usual activity – KTV. It was yet another night of oldies and laughter. Ha Ha

As per my previous entry, i lodged a complaint to COMFORT regarding an unpleasant incident. They replied me.

Dear Ms Lim
I refer to your complaint lodged on 6 August 2007 regarding your unpleasant encounter with the driver of the above-mentioned taxi.
First of all, I would like to convey my sincerest apologies for the frustration you were put through in this incident.
In this case, the driver was given a warning for his poor attitude towards you and failing to ensure that he have sufficient small change with him. He was firmly reminded to improve on his service or risk losing his hiring agreement with the company. The complaint has been filed into his service record and we will monitor his performance closely.
Once again, we hope you can accept our humble apologies.
Thank you for your valuable feedback. We will continue to reinforce communication and training efforts to push up service levels by all our drivers.

I was telling the “Ang” about the reply and he was saying i should not have gone to the extent of complaining.

Sometimes i dun see eye to eye with him. To me, i believe that the good should be complimented and the bad should be punished. But to him, he thinks that i should not kick up a big fuss.

Well, i dun only make complaints ok. If i encounter good service i will make sure i send in emails to compliment the person in context.

After reading the reply (and after i simmer down), i do feel bad that if my complaint will risk the driver his hiring agreement but if certain warning can improves the service, i see the need in it.

*Bleah* to the “Ang”

Have tried to plan an all-girls-trip from HongKong to Beach Resorts and now finally the trip is settled. To 1 of our all-time favorite place, The Land of Smiles, THAILAND.

Quite difficult to plan cos whenever there is a promo, we will discuss the dates and when finally confirm, the promo is gone. Ha Ha so after our last failed attempt, we discussed that for the next promo, just book on the dates we have decided.

And so on Monday, i was waiting for Kahong to update some stuffs on my machine and in the process of waiting, i went to Jetstar and Tiger Airways to test my luck.

Viola! There is the $1 promo from Tiger! Promo: Book from 13th to 19th and fly from Sept to Nov. I think the emailer is not sent out yet cos i did not receive any on that day. (update: received the emailer yesterday. ) 

So i chop chop call up the bestie and pingmei. Confirmed their particulars and booked. Anyway its more of a 1/2  all-girls-trip cos previously we were thinking of planning one with Carman, Flo and Yinmin. Well, that will be a bit hard cos the rest are always so busy.

1/2  all-girls-trip is better than nothing i guess and so the 3 of us are going to Thailand in Nov.

Actually it wasn’t my intention to get the bag but then I realized that I do not have a decent bag to use when attending dinners or functions cos my bags are all big and they aint suitable. Anyway, I was planning to get a LV bag using the $200 TAKA voucher that I had but it’s not applicable for use in the boutique。

And so we proceed to Gucci on Thurs. There is this wristlet that bin and I saw but it cost nearly $600…..not very worth for that size. So I gotten myself this instead. Gucci Balthus.



It looks small but its very spacious after all.

Oh, I was at LV too to check out the Neverfull Bag.



But its already sold out islandwide!! And it will not be in stocks for the next 3 months or so. Well, just right for me lah, I can wait til XMAS to get it and so I put my name on the waiting list.

Really a lot of people enquiring about the bag loh. 40 was saying it might be too common since everyone has it but I dun mind though. Well, lets see how my LV fund is by the end of the year.

We caught the National Day Fireworks near Cityhall MRT. Was just loitering around and wait. Hmm…in my opinion, the fireworks were really just so-so. I have seen better ones during CNY or the Fireworks Festivals.

Well, better than nothing lah. And we heard some pretty interesting conversations of some youngsters ha ha. Kids nowadays .



Met up with the colleagues for dinner (@ Yuanz workplace) and drinks at the usual hangout (Ballymoon) on Friday. Food was good, drinks were great and the live singing was even better. Haven felt so relaxed since… I dunno when.



On Sat, we caught the movie “不能说的秘密” with the usual gang.



Well, the show was nice, very tastefully done; from the piano duel, humorous schoolmates, dancing with the father, 四手联弹, but I have mixed feelings for the ending. Think there were some loopholes and it wasn’t properly accounted for.

Nevertheless, I think Jay’s acting definitely improved TREMENDOUSLY and its already very good considering its his first directed movie. Im pretty sure there will be more to come.

Definitely have to give credits to the other actors and actress. They were all familiar faces and they made the movie so enjoyable.

His voice is damn buay gum wan loh…so i ask him “then how?” and he RETORTED and say “去咖啡店换啦!” And he threw the $50 note onto the compartment between the 2 front seats.

NB!!! Machiam I kiam him $$ like dat…..then not finished loh, bin came and paid for my fare and i was waiting for my change. That unker zitao threw the coins into my hands loh and the coins went falling onto the floor of the bad seats….

On a side note, i saw a person this morning on my way to work.

There is this particular guy whom i always like to beo bump into when i was in NYP . The frens find him so so looking only but i happen to really find him very good looking.

I alwaes feel very happy if i managed to see him either in the canteen or the school compound. I think he is 1 year my senior.

*I hope he doesnt know im alwaes beo-ing him ha ha*

Anyway, i was crossing the road this morning and i saw a familiar face. Then it dawned on me that its him. Ha Ha wat are the chances man….?? We sort of walked in the same direction and i still think he is very good looking.

Oh If the “ANG” is reading: Darling, im only beo-ing nia. You are still the best!

Attended one of Bin’s friend’s wedding yesterdae @ The Regent. The hotel ballroom looks quite nice but there were 2 pillars which blocked some of the views from the stage. We had to shift and shift to get a good look of the projector.

I like the decor. Candles and red flowers. My favorite combination. But the food was not up to expectations though. The dishes were quite common and out of the 8 dishes, the herbal live prawns were the best. As for the rest, well…we were hungry so we just ate but the sharks fin was a disappointment. There were just a teeny bit fins and it was all starchy.

Some pictures of the night:
