Whirlwind Week

Whao! Last week was just one crazy rollercoaster ride… I was like… In depression from work… Out of depression… Back in depression… and Out of depression again… HA! Guess, I didn’t have a good night’s sleep till Sat. Hope the coming week will be better… Well, it had better be... Cos Lunar New Year’s around the corner… Argh!!! Got to help mummy do up the house…

Oh ya, I tried baking my very first Chocolate Fudge Cake on Friday night for Daddy’s B’day, and it turned out pretty well… He loved it. Hee… Had it coated with loads of dark chocolate. Sinful yah? But hell, did it tasted wicked. Will try to bake something else soon. Cupcakes? Tarts or maybe shortbread… Hmm…

Went to Chinatown on Sat with Mummy & Daddy for a quick walk around Chinatown… Bought our New Year stuff… Goodness… Is that place crowded… Took a l’il time to visit the new boutique hotel [ The Scarlet ] at Eksire Road… Eh ok lar… It didn’t look half as nice as the pictures… So disappointing…

Today, I met up with Moh to go to Zouk for it’s Flea & Easy.. Nice… The entire club was buzzing the entire time… It’s so happening! Ha! Loads of things to buy… Nice. From antique phones to really nice outfits. Bought meself a super-duper retro shirt and a cute l’il bag for mummy. Ran into a couple of friends which I haven’t seen in a long time there too… Hello Terri! Hello Fam Chee Cheong! Hello Darren! Hello Azin & Alif! Wassup wassup Andreas! Got to catch up with you folks sometime soon! HA! Well, Zaihan, Patrick and Wan came a l’il late… So by that time, most of the cool stuff had been taken already. Next time we go earlier ok? After finishing up my second round at Zouk, we headed to Clark Quay to catch it’s Flea Market… Not very exciting… Maybe, it’s because we had more fun running our IAD store in our final year in school to raise funds for our Graduation Annual. Ah… The memories… Our closing 50cents lelong lelong and all the ice cream treats… =) Caught up with Lena, Jason C. & Joey there… After leaving them, the IAD group headed over to Holland V. [ Cos we couldn’t find parking space at Orchard. Hung out at Breko with Zaihan & Patrick [ while he worked out the quotation… Thanks Pat! ]

After Breko, Zaihan had to go to Mat’s and Patrick had to go on home… So I decided to wander down Orchard alone to do some serious window shopping… Hmm… Actually it’s quite therapeutic… Ha ha… Hmm… But I didn’t buy much stuff… Phew…

By the time I’m thru…. I’m like super-beat liaoz… That’s why I’m home now blogging… Ha ha… Okies… Till my next entry… Ta ta! ZZzzZZZzzz…




Tune for the day



When It Comes
Earlimart


I started up my hollow
A piece of wood to follow
A day that doesn't come to the lucky

And I realize there's tomorrow
But I would rather wallow in the rain
Than moods that seem so potlucky

Well, I'm cruisin' El Paseo
In my off-white coupe back '65Oh,
I'm cruisin' down my own street
And my hoopty says to me
"You better hang on to your benchseat
I'm gonna take you for a ride"

And I'll let you know
When it comes,
when it comes
I'll let you know
But don't stay up for me
Don't wait up for me if I'm not home, yeah

So wait for fate to find me
A ball of string unwind me
Uncomfortable as a centerfold, yeah
And I realize you're behind me
To help and humankind me
To see my songs can be retold

Well, I'll be gone tomorrow
Yes, I'm on the road tomorrow
So, next time that I see you in school
It won't be for too long

And I'll let you know
When it comes,
when it comes
I'll let you know
But don't stay up for me
Don't wait up for me if I'm not home, yeah

And I want a leather jacket
But only if I have the time
Well I'll comb my hair like Elvis
And grab an Old Gretsch '59
And you'd hardly recognize me
If you saw me from behind

And I'll let you know
When it comes,
when it comes
I'll let you know (I'll let you know)
And I'll let you know, yeah
When it comes, just when it comes
I'll let you know (I'll let you know)
But don't stay up for me
Don't wait up for me if I'm not home, yeah

And I'll let you know, yeah
I'll let you know, yeah
But I'll let you know
