Nice Lamp Shade



They are made of bottled drinks.
Came home and blurbed about it and read that they are alcoholic and can be bought at the joint at S$7.50
But I didn't see them on the menu while dining there.
The colour looks like Sinaco heehee.

Milestone

My thesis has been accepted!

But my University says that I have to send them 2 hardbound copies before they can do the paper work, so that my Faculty will give the approval, and then the degree can be awarded on 11 Oct 2007. The Faculty has to give the approval by 23 Sept 2007. If the deadline cannot be met, I will have to wait until 6 December 2007 for my pee hedge dee...

I do not want any more waiting................

So I have sent my thesis for printing and hardcover binding by express service... these 2 copies will cost me S$104!!! That is 4 uni sashimis!!!!!!!

I can collect them on Monday and send them out to my University in Australia on Tuesday.

But I have another problem...

I want to use Speedpost Express which will take only 2 days for my stuff to reach Australia.

However the address of the Research Coordinator is a GPO box and they can't deliver by Express to a GPO box.......

So I have written to the Research Coordinator for a non-GPO box address....

They do not have the habit of returning emails over the weekend... so I will have to pray that she will get back to me on Monday..........

If I don't have a non-GPO box address, I will have to use the EMS service that will take 4 days...
So that means she will probably receive my thesis on Tuesday, 25 September.......

And if she is kind enough, hope that she will still lodge the paperwork with the Faculty............

I want my degree to be conferred on 11 October 2007 no matter what lah!!!!!!!

May God help me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ichiban at Parkway 14 Sept 2007



uni sashimi - sea urchin. this is great stuff!!!

salmon sashimi - a bit too thickly sliced.

half udon - half the normal portion, a brilliant idea for those who are conscious about carbo intake.

the works - one smashingly nice dinner...
*clang* i heard coins dropping onto the floor because there is a big hole in my pocket!!! =ppp

Lemon Grass at Siglap



Nice thai lunch. Loved the mango salad and pineapple rice.

My New Book Light



It has a cool LED bulb that gives off white light.
I like white lights!!!

Aqua Massage

*note: auntie in picture is not me =ppp









When i was in it, i thought to myself that that was how lying inside a coffin would feel like =ppp
As if it is not morbid enough, there is a big black bag kind of thing that will enclose your body as the capsule shuts tight, so that the water jets will gush down on your "black bag" and not directly on you so you won't get wet.

The massage was quite an interesting experience. It was good for my tired feet and ankles after a day's grueling shopping trip but the water pressure wasn't strong enough to work the shoulders and back.

However, it was fun. =ppp

Jusco Shopping Centre



Low Cost Housing - aka our HDB
(but they are all 2-bedroom, these and the terrace house type, which cost the same amount - RM20,000 or something like that - but you don't get to choose whether you want the flat or the terrace, they go by ballot system and the housing is given to you at ramdom)
Please appreciate your HDB more...
