My great weekend hang out!

Posted on July 20, 2010 by Anna Ker

I realised I haven’t blogged for a few days again!

For the past few days I’d been having full-day (or almost!) activities that kept me occupied from day to night. Totally drained of energy.

Saturday was an awesome day, whereby I got to touch mahjong again!! My fingers were really itching for some mahjong therapy, and thanks to my usual mahjong kakis, I got my therapy satisfied. *HAPPYYYY*

The lovely thing about this gang is, there’s no stress playing with them. Halfway through the round, somebody mentioned FOOD, somebody else seconded the idea, and there we go, settled out for our tea break! :D I’m of course, one of them who seconded. HAHAA, I’m a food lover, and we went for my favourite rojak/ice kacang stall in JB!!! Its the BEST place for such sinful treats.

Thank you Kaiwei, Yvonne, Patrick, Koon Phi!! & those in the gang, but I didn’t manage to meet on the other mahjong date. :)!

PS: No photos because everyone complains they’re in their shaggest form during mahjong sessions! HAHA!

After mahjong, I went home and had a short nap before heading out for dinner with the Ker family. :)

I was craving for Secret Recipe cakes..and by the time our dinner ended, it was the closing times for the malls as well so cravings wasn’t satisfied. *Sigh*

*while I’m typing this entry, I feel like I’m under mozzies attack. I have mozzies bite here there and everywhere!! Omg!!*

–

Sunday saw me out in Singapore for Playboy’s outing! :D

Our actual plan to the Botanicals Garden was destroyed by the bad weather. It was drizzling almost all day! I hate rainy days because they make the weather so humid and sticky!!

On our way to Dhouby Ghout Mrt..

*Still on the way..*

Thus we ended up @ PitStop Cafe, which was a boardgames cafe! I think its quite a good cafe with reasonable prices! Only setback that will make me think twice about going back again is that we need to walk a distance away from Clarke Quay Mrt. Other than that, its a pretty comfortable cafe. ;) *Thumbs up*

The whole bulk of us @ PitStop Cafe! ;)

After a series of different games played, I conclude that I have SLOW and LAGGED REACTION TIME, cannot THINK/COUNT quickly, and BEST at silly games which doesn’t require BRAINS! *HAHAHA* Shitttt, I wanna bang wall now. ><”

LOVE YOU GUYS! :D

But I didn’t join them for dinner after games.

Because I went to catch a movie instead!

Caught Eclipse: The Twilight Saga, like finally!

Many were really unsatisfied with the movie, perhaps those who read the book! The storybooks usually gives very good description making the stories so real, and that is probably why the readers are disappointed with the movie..

Under a non-twilight-saga-reader’s perspective, I beg to differ, and I felt that the movie wasn’t that bad on the overall.

I agree there were some scenes that had too many exchanges in conversation that could have made the movie a tad boring, but on the overall, I felt it was still an-okay-movie. At least not as bad as what some people described it to be. HAHA!

More importantly, yours truly didn’t even close my eyes for a second! :)))

I can’t wait for BREAKING DAWN.

Eclipse portrayed some sort of battle between Jacob and Edward for Bella, so I presume Breaking Dawn would give us a conclusion? *I really have no idea for I haven’t read the book!, its 100% under my presumptions!*

Anyway I wished I was Bella HAHA!

There’s one character I’ve been hating ever since I watched the first series, Twilight.

Victoria!!!!!

& I’m more than glad she was ‘killed’ in Eclipse! :D

–

This morning saw me being sporty after a long long break. I haven’t been exercising since months ago! Since I started working for the first time, in May! Thats a good two months, I’m feeling really guilty.

But it was a good ‘work out’ as I finally moved my muscles a little more than usual by playing badminton!

& Now I’m aching everywhere. HAHA. It means a pretty good work out, eh? I hope.

Also went for the medical appointment as a requirement for admission to NUS. Settled, and another agenda ticked off my schedule. :D

Pretty much sums up my day today.

Travelled back to JB after which and home sweet home. :)

Dog tired!

–

not feeling at my best these few days! :( but I’ll be okay.

because I know..

and..

I conclude that everyone has their own set of problems and unhappy moments.

All we have to do is to live with it and become STRONGER in the process. ^^

Pay by Distance public transport fares..

Posted on July 16, 2010 by Anna Ker

The Pay by Distance fares was recently implemented on the 3rd of July..

According to the Land Transport Authority (LTA);

A majority of commuters will benefit from Distance Fares, with 2 in 3 seeing a reduction or no change in their weekly public transport expenditure.

So.. What say you?

Unfortunately, to my misfortune, I have to say I’m probably the 1 in 3 that is not benefiting from this new scheme! Boooooooo!

For instance, (if you follow me on twitter @iamannaker) I’ve tweeted before that my usual transport fees of $1 have increased to $1.40 now, when travelling from Malaysia customs to Kranji.

Other than that, I’ve been looking into my transport fares whenever I travel, and I’m really paying more for majority of the times I’m travelling! Its not that I remember how much it costed last time, but on the back of my mind, I can roughly gauge the figures.

Meaning more allowance used for transport. THIS REALLY SUCKS.

Along side, I hear about complains with regards to this new transport scheme from friends around, and actually none of them actually mentioned they benefitted. Does that mean my friends and I are all that unlucky to be the 1/3 of the population who uses public transport?

Actually, if you think logically.. In my opinion, if SMRT don’t earn more money using this pay by distance scheme, why did they bother changing the scheme?

All these random photos are accumulated from the time I got my phone until now, which is a good 3-4 months. Of course I’m not posting every single photos, but selected few hehe. So please don’t expect super good quality photos because Blackberry’s cameras are really “private limited”.. So pardon me for the lousy qualityyyyy.

Aloha lovelies! :]]]]]

15th of July is finally OVER! Its a date that’s bookmarked on my phone calendar since eons ago..

I can’t reiterate how worried I was about this silly QET test, and no matter what is the outcome, I’m glad its over.

Its feels as if a rock (that weighs a 100 tonnes) is off my chest. I can finally breathe at ease, enjoy myself guilt-free. The few days before the test was a terror. Knowing my usual self, I really couldn’t help but procrastinate till the last minute. Urghhhhhh. Totally hates myself for that. BUTTTT. Its alright, everything’s over, and I’ll resign to ‘fate’ to decide. HAHA. Oookay, my senior asked me to *have faith*!!

Life’s easier and happier like that, isn’t it?

:))

I’m in an awesome mood nowwwwwwwwwww.

–

ANYWAYYYYY.

YESTERDAYYYYYY, I caught a movieeee (feeling totally guilty!!) with Suet Yin and Nic!!! SUPER LOVE THEMMM FOR WATCHING KARATE KID WITH ME AGAIN!! Yes, Karate Kid. I know I’m slower than anything. But hey, there were like 3 rows of people in the theatres too okay. So at least 3 rows of people as slow as me.

It was really a good catch! & I’m so super duper glad I caught it at the very last minutee! Because even the cinemas in JB are not showing it anymore.. Mommy’s gonna be so disappointed.

AWESOME MOVIEEEE.

I’d give it a 4.5/5 stars..

It was so touching, the part where Jackie Chan was reminiscing about his wife and son. Oh my! :(

& Extremely heart wrenching when the super evil and arrogant coach wanted to break Dre’s legs. Ouchhhhh. I feel for him! :(

AIYAAA.

Definitely worth the watch. But if you missed it, wait for the DVDs to come out and watch it at home, I guess? :))

But at the same time, I missed a few pretty good movies too.

The legend is born: Ip Man
Toy Story 3
The Backup Plan
Triple Tap
She’s out of my league
The A-Team

Omg I feel super demoralised and depressed.

I missed out so many great movies. And my only chance to catch two out of the six here is tomorrow. I found out one cinema in JB that’s still showing a single slot of Triple Tap and The Backup Plan, tomorrow. Sighhh. The other 4, its either I manage to catch them last minute like how I caught Karate Kid, or I’ll never watch them. Sad ttm.

I’m so going to catch the movies I wanna watch before they are removed from the screens again! :((

No matter how lousy Eclipse: The Twilight Saga was said to be, I think I’m still going to watch it. HAHA.

I wanna catch Eclipse, Despicable me, Inception, Street dance for now.

–

And…in no time, it’ll be time for school!

I’m having mixed feelings about school.

At times, I can’t wait for it to start because my boredness is really filled to the brim. But on other occassions, I wished I had more time, to have fun, watch movies, go K with friends, meet up with friends, go partyyyyy, etc. But then again, it will become boring again.

Okay I shall anticipate the start of school :) I wonder how university life is going to be like, for me..

No one says its going to be easy.

But at least, its going to be worth it. (:

I need you, lady luck!

This is how I feel, exactly, right now.

#`1,

I really want to go for the Science Orientation Week! But so far I’ve not gotten any replies from the organising committee. :( I really hope I get a response soon!

#`2,

I’ve got a qualifying english test (QET) to go for this Thursday. It feels extremely weird. I haven’t written a proper essay since, say, Secondary 4 O’levels? Poly don’t make us write essays. We write reports. And what, we have to write something like an argumentative essay for the test.

I’m really afraid. I cant even hold a pen properly now after not doing so for a good 4 months at least. HAHA.

SOOO, LADY LUCK, I need you to be by my side these few days.

Lots of love;
XOXO,

Anna.
