weddings, dinner & cockroaches*

Last Sat, after coming to school in the morning for my P6 Prelim Oral duty, I went home and kinda slacked until around 12.15pm before I left home again to attend a childhood friend's wedding at Rasa Sentosa (ROM ceremony at 1.15pm).

So I decided to walk along the roads to where there's more traffic and hopefully I'd be able to hail a taxi but but to my horror, there were many people standing along the roads waiting for taxis and there were none on the roads! in the end, after walking for about 15 min, I reached the BP Plaza and ended up having to call for a cab. :S

by the time I got onto the cab, it was already 12.45pm. I tot to myself, ok, I've got 30min and so should be no prob to get to Sentosa in time for the ceremony, given the driving skills of Singaporean taxi drivers. but to my surprise, my taxi driver was a gentle one, and perhaps oso due to the HIGh petrol prices, he appeared too gentle and unwilling to rev the engine and step on the accelerator! So I only managed to reach the expressway at around 1pm. and there was a JAM!! >.<" luckily it kinda cleared up after a while but by the time I reached the hotel, it was already 1.30pm and the ceremony was over!! >.<"
so sad.... I missed it all~ in the end, I went up to the ballroom for the lunch reception and met the bride & groom.. :) Such a loving couple... my friend, the groom, made a touching speech and even sang for his bride! ^-^ Sweet!!

a wedding by the sea...

popping the booze~

Juz for his bride... awwwww~

After the lunch, I left at ard 4pm and since SW's class ends at 5pm, I decided to go jalan jalan around Vivo while waiting for him. When he's finally here, we drove back to BP Plaza and went to NTUC. We've decided to cook our 1st dinner at our place.. but coz I'm seriously a noob at cooking, I couldn't cook anything too fancy.. so we settled for stir-fried vegetables, fried tofu (dad's recipe) & a egg-dongfen soup. and after spending approx. 1 hour in the kitchen, constantly fearing that I'd burn down the house, the dishes were finally ready! :)

sad to say, the soup din work out well coz the dongfen kinda absorbed all the soup whilst I was frying the veg and tofu.. so... all in all, the kitchen is intact, no diarrhoea.. haha... but I guess I've gotta learn to make more soups~ ^-^ and the best part, SW helped with the mopping & cleaning of the dishes after that.. BEST! :) but cooking is really tiring! absolutely dead beat after that! until next time!

p/s: Today, 28th July 08, @7am, I KILLED A BABY COCKROACH!! SW had already left home for his ICT and so I was home alone. then I saw a baby cockroach crawling on the walls near the dining table and I kinda freaked out for a min, b4 I decided to get some newspapers and SWAT!!! I KILLED IT!!! YEA~

luckily not adult cockroach man........ :p
