I've been living rather interestingly for the past couple of weeks. I went prawn fishing for the first time ever last Sunday, and I caught ONE prawn! So happy!! Though there are others who caught alot more, I was really happy with my one prawn catch. Haha
Then, there was Batam with darling. Went to Turi Beach Resort. The Beach is not the phuket kind of super swee beach. Rather, it's the kind that faces freaking Singapore. Anyway, the resort compound was really nice. The surroundings were beautiful and most of all. Quiet. Something I really needed alot. We stayed in one of two deluxe rooms in one big fake atap "hut". It's fake atap because it was really solid wood and a good ceiling, so no leaking and shit. Then, there was a 4 poster bed and TV with Singaporean channels. Oh, and the view from our bed and balcony was really great! Faces the sea! Decided not to take any photos, cos we were lazy and just wanted to slack and absorb the slow slow slow spirit. So it was a really nice and much needed rest, the massage was really good as well. Shiok!! Food wasn't too bad, I've always loved Indonesian food anyway...
Another interesting happening was dinner/supper at Quality Hotel with darling. The famous $8.80 Asian rice/dinner buffet. It was really just "chup chye peng" mixed vegetable rice, with about 15 dishes all going free flow. Of course, there's the famous porridge and the porridge condiments. Really nice and comfortable spread I must say. It's really not for those who like like 30-40 dishes or those buffets with an international variety. All you'll really get is stuff like curry chicken, steam fish, chup chye, hotdogs and ngoh hiang. Of course, all prepared by hotel standard chefs. Thumbs up!

Night shifting. It's really tiring, but fun. I've recently gotten my mum to go crazy about prepare "lunchboxes" for my supper. Haha... The stuff she's been preparing is actually quite good.
Started the New Year with a clean format of my laptop. Now everything is much speedier... Wooohooo...
I don't want to go to work!

Haven't heard a song with so much passion in some time. Awww...

Happy New Year everyone. The year 2008 is here and shall I remind bloody Chua Kok Keng that the world still hasn't ended. Anyway...
Went to Boat Quay for a slightly different type of countdown. The idea was to avoid the ridiculous crowds and find a nice place to sit, talk, drink and watch fireworks. Our luck wasn't that good initially. Ended up in MiniPub for a while. But later, we managed to get a river side seat at The Cavern. Where the DJ spun retro hits and cooked up a really nice atmosphere. That was nice.
This is the ridiculous MiniPub
Then, this is The Cavern!
Nice chilling out Countdown. However, for the fireworks, we were blocked by some dumb building. Only saw like green, red, orange and yellow smoke. And about 10% of the fireworks shot. But it was still nice.
And before the countdown. I was at Tampopo in Liang Court, with darling and friends for a nice Japanese dinner. The fried stuff were really good. And the company was nice.
Happy New Year.
