Yepz, as the title suggests, i was chilling at Candy's house after my morning driving lesson. Brought breakfast over to her house as requested! Fresh soon kuay from Kallang Bahru market for her. Had to go back to my place first to buy them as i left home as early as 0730 in the morning. So i don't think the shop starts selling the soon kuay so early in the morning.
Guided her as well, the last step to solve the corner pieces for the 3X3 Rubik's Cube. Very fast she was able to re-do and solve the cube liao. Not bad haha...Besides the 3X3, there is also a 5X5 one. Don't think i want to start introducing to her though. Even i do the 5X5 one till i gone crazy! Totally madness for 5X5. =.=|| Think she might end up worse than that haha..
Oh well...Didn't know she is sick as well besides Jojo. Argh..due to bad weather i guess. Must really take care of body especially when Chinese New Year is coming!! Fall sick how to enjoy the 'Bak Gua', pineapple tarts and the egg rolls!!! Just slightly more than 1 week more to CNY! Hope they can recover soon!
Lesson is on turning in a junction, into a minor road and into a main road. So most of the time i'm busy getting used to on the signal lights and changing gears. Turning of bends has to slow down to a comfortable speed before proceeding on the turn. Signal early as well! Always forgot to signal! Haha...Can be better! Yeah...Next lesson shall start to wrap up module 1 le Lolx...2 more modules to go then can start to go for the driving test liao. Yes la! Looking forward for that day to come. I want my driving license!!
Anyway, Final Theory is just 1 week away! Lolx...Hoping to clear it once and for all! Then i can start to book my practical test date le. Haha! Then can start to chiong ALL the lessons by the test date! Good good!!

It's all about gear shifting and mastering the technique of braking to a stop as well as braking to a slow for today's lesson. As i have not applied my PDL, the instructor couldn't bring me out to the road for practise the changing from gear 1 to 4 and from gear 4 back to 1. I am still stuck in the circuit and switching in between the pathetic gear 1 and 2. This time round i wasn't so nervous and stressed out though. lolx...getting the hang of it, damn fun! Managed to clear 2 chaps for today. Module 1 is coming to an end in just 2 more lessons i guess. Then more exciting and challenging stuff will start to come in liao. Next Sunday going to have another practical lesson. Should be going out to the road and hands on the higher gears liao lolx...Hope i don't panic and do something foolish though haha...

Woot! Had my second practical driving lesson early in the morning! Attended full 2 hours of e-trial before going to the waiting area for the instructor. Was looking forward to it initially but it turned out a stressful 100mins of nightmare for me. =.=|| Most of the time i couldn't hear what was he mumbling about! Then most of the time giving last minute instructions only. About to approach a junction liao then suddenly asked me to signal+turn left. Idiot...Spent the whole session turning around the circuit from gradual bends to sharp bends. Only cleared 1 chap today!! Haiz...tomorrow will be having another lesson at the same time. Hope i am assigned a really good instructor! Going to wotk on gear shifting tomorrow. Hope can clear at least 2 chaps haha...Oh ya, haven't applied my PDL also. Argh!!

It's my first ever driving lesson today. Was feeling very anxious and excited since this morning. My instructor started off the lesson by explaining the safety procedures and the different parts and functions in the car. Then he demostrated the correct way to start off the car and the changing of gears all that. After which we switched over. Haha, was damn eager to try on at that moment. Start engine, step on clutch, gear 1, release handbrake, release the clutch to half-clutch and step on the accelerator simultaneously. Find the biting point in order for the car to start moving forward. Then step on accelerator further and slowly release the clutch. Once steady, Step on the clutch and change gear. Lolx...sounds easy eh?! But its not easy for first timer like me. Didn't know the accelerator is so freaking sensitive. Stepped abit more and the engine goes VVRRRRROOOOOMMMM!! Damn POWER!! Felt like initial D WAHAHAH =.=||| Just that i'm travelling at 20km/h >.<" Oh well~ at least i got to drive around the circuit and did some turning of bends. Had a feeling of turning the steering wheel haha...FUN!! SHIOK SIA! Can't wait for next week's lesson. Managed to clear 4 chapters today. Hahaha...
Wahaha happy 20TH birthday to Serene! Woke up yesterday in the morning to bake her favourite oreo cheesecake specially for her. I've never baked before though, screwd up abit here and there haha! Beating the mixture without melting the butter, almost mistaken salt for sugar if not for Jun Ming (he went to taste the salt =.=")and forgetting to add the egg into the mixture Haha...and Jun Ming, trying to be funny, lick the mixture off the knife to taste the mixture and almost ended up tongueless. Oh well~ Fortunately the cake turned out fine even if its nt delicious lolx... Consider not bad liao wor, didn't even messed up Candy's kitchen.
Last minute almost screwd up the cake. The cake broke into half while i was trying to get the cake out of the moulder. Panic sia, quickly cupped the broken half back to the moulder and "cement" the crack hahaha..
Went to meet the birthday girl in the evening at Marina Square. We watched the new Korean movie 'Le Grand Chef'. After that we held back Serene, forced her to go Esplanade there with us. Just nice she needed to go to the washroom when we were there. We immediately rushed to find a good spot to setup the cake and candles. Then i went back to fetch her while JM hid in a good spot. So haha expected la...surprised her with JM's present and my oreo cheesecake. Hope she really likes it. Oh ya, need to thank her for the tm's foodbowl and the cute soft toy. Thanks for the "Dear sucks guy, happy birthday!" =.=|||
The birthday girl! Old Woman
Oreo cheesecake and our presents

Drew looks at me, I fake a smile so he won't see
That I want and I'm needing everything that we should be
I'll bet she's beautiful, that girl he talks about
And she's got everything that I have to live without
Drew talks to me, I laugh cause it's so damn funny
That I can't even see anyone when he's with me
He says he's so in love, he's finally got it right,
I wonder if he knows he's all I think about at night
//Chorus
He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star
He's the song in the car I keep singing, don't know why I do
Drew walks by me, can he tell that I can't breathe?
And there he goes, so perfectly,
The kind of flawless I wish I could be
She'd better hold him tight, give him all her love
Look in those beautiful eyes and know she's lucky cause
So I drive home alone, as I turn out the light
I'll put his picture down and maybe
Get some sleep tonight
He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only one who's got enough of me to break my heart
He's the song in the car I keep singing, don't know why I do
He's the time taken up, but there's never enough
And he's all that I need to fall into..
Drew looks at me, I fake a smile so he won't see.

First day of new year is totally havoc!! Went all over the place with Sam and Jun Ming. We wanted to go Esplanade to countdown and also to see some nice firework but there were too many people, kena stopped by the Cisco police at the exit way to the Esplanade. We had no choice but to camp at the park nearby but also alot of people. The firework lasted roughly around 8mins.
(Taken by Serene)
Supper was at Geylang after the countdown. Walked alot, and wasted time waiting for a bus that was no longer operating at that time liao..ended up taking the MRT to Kallang and walk to Lorong 9 for the MAX Beef Hor Fun. Not bad eh, we had good food and we had free show to watch. First we saw a drunkard, hes so freaking drunk man, drink till very jia lat. He dropped dead on the ground sleeping on the street. He was in a total mess man, and i think he smell like shit also. I don't even dare to go near him. Lolx...The second show was the "gangster fight". A group of people were chasing after 1 poor guy. Some more got sneak attacck also! THROW CHAIR from behind sia!! Dangerous =.=|||
Unfortunately, we couldn't manage to find a Pan Pacific uncle for Sam la...She even wanted Fullerton though but too bad nobody wants. So, we had to bring along her to East Coast with us. By then already no more bus or MRT liao. Took a cab down to East Coast to see Sunrise? Waited from 3 onwards. We sat at the rock there and chillax. Crapping, joking, laming and emo-ing? Cos the Sam played all the "emo" songs on her phone. What song she also say is "emo". We lasted like that till dawn, but we couldn't see any sun rising!! The sky was too cloudy to see any sunrise. Quite expected la, the sky was quite red before dawn.
Eventually, all 3 of us cui liao. But the 2 of them cui even more, their eyes damn shag, can see them hardly open Lolx...Jun Ming's eyes were closing and Sam was rubbing her eyes le. Haha...after breakfast we all just went home straight and KO liao ZzzZz. What a havoc and exhausting start for 2008. ^_^
