My Birthday 2012 (Part 1)!

Hi guys!

I know I dragged this post for very long. But I had e-Learning week right after my birthday and tonnes of assignments that just cleared few days ago. I'm so stressed up, I keep breaking out, eating wayyyy too much. :( I really don't dare to think what will happen when exams end. :/ okay, enough.

Now, the post proper.

*******************************************************************************

This is one of my birthday present! :) Honey gave it to me early because I was in a real bad mood that day. Cheered me up!

My birthday was on a Monday so I planned to celebrate it on the weekend before.
On 14th July 2012, Honey came to my place and waited for me to prepare. Then we headed off to Gardens by the Bay!

I love it!

The whole place was out of the world beautiful. Especially with the Supertrees and two Domes! It was slightly drizzling so we did not go up the skywalk. :( I'll most definitely go back for it!

When we reached we went to shop around the souvenir shop first. I love all the merchandise there! Especially the postcards, make Singapore so unique and gorgeous. :)

The queue was really short when we went to get our tickets. There were only 2 couples before us. Quickly got the tickets to the Cloud Forest and off we go! We went down the escalator and the Cloud Forest was just beside the escalator! So excited! The cold wind was blowing out so strongly! So cold! Hehe~

The Fall.

We were welcomed by the huge waterfall, mountain structure! I'm not sure the exact height but I think it's around 6 or 7 storey! *Snap snap lots of photos!

We took our time and snap photos as we walk uphill. :)

After we walked one round we took the lift to the top of the mountain! There were rose-like flowers, pond, boats, etc. Really pretty. :)

There were few different types of this carnivorous plant. 

 Thank you, my dear! 

I like this pond area. :) There was a little boy playing with water here. So cute.
We then went to the cloud walk! It's so cool! There were cloud/mist blown out. And the bridge is see-through at the bottom!

After the cloud walk, we followed the trail. We kept following the sign and walking until we reached the end. :)

After spending the day at Gardens by the Bay, we went to have dinner!

But... before that Honey had a surprise for me!

 Twelve Cupcakes! 

I ate 2 before we went for dinner! Yum! Super moist and rich flavours!

We had dinner at Jack's Place! Honey's favourite! :) 

I've seen fireworks on my birthday TWICE! So happy!
Then we went home to open my present!

Nail stamp kit!

Yay! I love it! I can save more money and do my own nails! ^^ 

That's all for the day! I had a lot of fun and really enjoyed myself! <3
Stay tuned for my celebration with the Shapes!

P.S. I think my laptop has some sort of problem! At first, all my photos can't rotate. Now, it's all corrupted or error when I try to upload! Argh! Somebody help me please!

Hi guys.

So we finally finished the maths game. ^^

Met up with Siqi and Patty at Siqi's place.

I got a surprise for my birthday from Siqi! It was so sweet! Haha. I got a cute little crab cupcake. Very yummy too. :)  

Then we went off to have dinner after we finished our work. Hehe. 

Bear with the photos please, I have no idea why it just won't rotate(!!). 

Yum Yum! Cancer cupcake? ^^

 Twinny bestie!

That's all for now. :)

Thank God, I have great people supporting me through this difficult time. 

Thank you, lovelies. 

With Love,

Hi. 

Field Supervision and Learning centre (LC) project ended yesterday! Yay! I know I didn't mention that I had all these assignments due but I'm still excited to share that I cleared it all! The main assignment that is bugging me this whole semester! 

I need to update a little because I have photos to share. I'll get into the assignments part later. ;)

So last Sunday I went out with the Long and round (sissy). Went to get my materials for LC and accompany long to do some stuff. :)

They had a huge variety of cloths, yarns and craft materials. Good place for crafty people to find resources. :) 

Then we went to Plaza Sing to do some stuff and had dinner. We were all starving by the time we got to the restaurant! 

Ttokbokki (떡볶이) to share!

Kimchi Jeon (김치전). Very Very nice!

We were very very full after the meal. :) Overall a nice meal except sissy didn't like the ttokboki because it's too sweet. She prefer savoury and I wish it was more spicy. Well, still delicious. Maybe we will go back for Bulgogi next time. :)

We went to have Gelato after that. The Italian Gelato at Plaza Sing basement is a must-try! It's really very nice. We had the Bailey's and Dark Chocolate truffle! I like both but long and round preferred the dark chocolate one. :)

I enjoyed myself a lot that day. :) Though it was only half a day. Really unwind and ready to start rushing assignments again. 

So we went back home and I started doing my LC. All the way till Tuesday, my room is in constant mess. Papers flying around, cardboard, boxes all over the place. 

The day before setting up. Still cutting, pasting, until my hands are bruised and swollen. My back and tail bone hurts from sitting on the cold hard floor. :( I have spasms while walking even after a few days. Sigh.. #Sufferingsofateacher

Finally all done up! Great sense of achievement. Though someone got me really pissed off earlier in the day. Siqi would know. :(

6 activities in total! All my hardwork!

On Wednesday, the field supervisor came. I had to do a lesson plan with the children and then transit them to the LC at the end. 

The feedback was really good. Except that I sounded impatient. Well, didn't mean to sound that way. Maybe I am used to being like that and didn't realise it will have a different impact on children. At least in her view, that's that. I was getting nervous when they are playing with the beans I asked them to count instead of actually counting it. So I had to keep asking, "How many do you have already?" Sigh.. Enough of rambling. It's good that everything else she said is really good. I'm happy! It's over!

I can now start being excited for my birthday! I'm going out with Honey on Saturday, after meeting Siqi for learning journey in the morning. Hopefully I won't be too late for Gardens by the bay, so as to not waste the tickets. :) Sunday with Long and round, probably going to the same place. LOL. Then monday, my actual birthday, I will have dinner with my family. Hehe! I don't know when I will be celebrating with the JARS though. :) 

Happy for now. Let's be happy till e-learning assignments come in. Dreads* But, oh well..

Bye for now. ^^ 

With Love,
