Wahaha~~ Free food by embassy again...of cuz have to go and eat! We got pay tax one leh~ As usual, their siew bah and char siew...sucks..Cream puffs really good! And hor..feel like kicking myself for forgetting to bring my ID to enjoy their FREE FLOW of ANY alcoholic drinks..Half the guests there are ang mors...I feel disturbed why these ang mors can be let in to splurge on our food, on our tax income! Hmm..prob is to promote Singapore tourism? Or worse, to attract foreign talent? Are we crushing our own foot with a rock? And how come we don't get free food and drinks back in Spore? Hmm...Food for thought..

Had a huge surprise when Cha returned home with roses yesterday. He went to Safeway to buy flowers on the pretext of going to school, but I blur la, din even know the school was closed on Fri and really thought he would be going to school to do his stuff...Never did I expect that he will come back one hr later with a bouquet of flowers in his hands! wahahah~~ Although roses on V-Day are exorbitantly expensive, but I guess girls still like to receive flowers sometimes bah...not every year, but sometimes a surprise like this is more meaningful than when flowers are expected every year...I really thought Cha would give me flowers only on our wedding anniversary! heh..
Had an early celebration at Copper Canyon Restaurant for V-Day, as tomolo I'm planning to prepare a CNY feast as a reunion dinner lor...and also if we have dinner outside today, it will not be that expensive as V-day menu is not out yet...Wah, this weekend so sinful sia, have so much food for Sat and Sun...must really lose weight before going back to Spore for a second round of food indulgence liao...
School work has been really hectic for me since school starts. Homework, projects and readings seem to pile up endlessly and a whole week of class load starts again when I barely managed to finish the work for the previous week..sian..But I still enjoy student life better than a working adult lor..haha...
Another snow storm occurred again on last Tue, dubbed as Snoverkill, bringing the total snow level to a new record high...Now there are so much snow everywhere, and are even covering some of the road lanes and parking lots lor.. At first I thought snow was so fun and pretty but later on I realise that too much snow will cause a lot of inconvenience to commuting and as a result ppl are unable to carry on with their usual life...When we drove out today, it took us significantly longer time to reach our usual destination at Columbia Mall, as several lanes were closed due to snow. And hor, ppl could not find parking lots easily as the staff had to store the snow on huge parking areas, so supply quite limited ah..lucky we managed to get one lot pretty quickly... I think the snow will take weeks to melt lor, since temp is really freezing these few days. And...we are expecting another snow session again on Mon...arrrrhhhh...This means my class will likely be cancelled liao...Waste my school fees~
May the start of the new year mark a new, happy beginning for all. Happy Chinese New Yr to everyone! GONG XI FA CAI!!!~~~

Although this Snowmageddon, as termed by Obama, has caused a lot of inconveniences, stalled traffic and turned the whole city into a dead town, but it was really nice to be part of history, as snow level in some areas really reached record high! So for the past two days, we stayed in the comfort of our home studying hard and turning couch potatos, and also got to see, thru our huge window, on how the storm dumped thirty inches of snow in 2 days, slowly burying the cars. True to the forecast, the sky really snowed non-stop for more than 30 hours...
And we went down to take pictures again when the snowfall started to subside today, the snow reached knee-level as we tried to make our way to different parts of our estate to take pictures with the snow sia...I think ppl looking out of the windows would think we are siao eh...so cold and in the middle of the snow storm why still take so many pics..heheh... lucky we thick skin leh...Wah seh..the wind was really very strong, up to the point where it picked up all the snow and started blowing into our faces, making it hard for us to see, and even breathe properly... But we dun care eh...we managed to take pictures during pockets of time when the wind was weaker. Also had snowball fights with Cha, he was so evil to throw so much snow at me! HUMPH! Not gentleman at all leh, should not retaliate when I hurled snow at him ma..heheh..
Anyway, it had just stopped snowing and people are struggling to clear up all the snow away from the cars and the pavements..poor thing, lucky our car's parking lot did not accumulate that much snow...It is still a dead town outside, and the roads will prob be quite empty tomorrow bah, since there are still tons of snow on the roads and tomorrow's weather is going to be unusually chilly...
