Preeti's 21st and Girls night out!

HELLO!!!

I got posted back to NUH main building already :'( I miss all my patients back at westpoint., especially that uber cute granny!!! She cried when I told her it was my last day there!!! :'(
Work and environment at the main building is sooooo different and that made be super super stressed up.
The patients there are so acute and especially at the high dependency unit, where there are more lines on the patients.. for the clumsy me, it is a really stressful environment cuz every step i take i have to be careful >.<

Anyways, 14 September was Preeti's birthday!
She invited us to her birthday party at " The Sentosa Resort and Spa" at the Garden Villa.
Nice and atas place, so I had no choice but to dress up!
Had to borrow a maxi dress from my friend! HAHA..
One thing I don't like about parties is that there would be awkwardness cuz the host would invite all of her friends from primary school all the way to university. So, everybody were in their own clique, and the birthday girl was hopping around entertaining everybody there. This party was no exception. Besides talking to my jc friends who went, there was nothing else to do except taking pictures.









Alrighty. Enough about the boring party. HAHA.

Yesterday, I went to catch a movie with RT and Larrison. 
As usual, I was late -.- 
Anyway, after movie RT and I had a GIRLS NIGHT OUT!
We bought a voucher off streetdeals.com for $21.90 for 3 hours of free flow drinks at the " Gourmet Bistro" at Hong Kong Street (opposite Clarke Quay central)
 I kinda like that place, good to chillax with friends and the food is not too expensive. Compared to this place, I think Timbre is kind of overrated. Service is good too!
However, it would be better if there were to be live band there!

Since our voucher was free flow of drinks, the guy at the bar kept giving us drink we didn't order.. HAHA. so the pictures below, most of them are what the person served us!  


Our Dinner! Teriyaki Chicken!



So Pretty!!

Polaroid the staff took of us!

More drinks!

This one is nice!

Pretty girl :)

It's great to be able to hang out with her and having her to be my close friend..
Good friends are hard to come by.. Thank god I have her! <3
Hopefully we can date each other sooon!!! <3

With Th.fridayclique.

(Retrospective entry, 31/08/12)

Hellohello!!!
It was a really busy and exhausting 2 weeks at my neuro placement with all the questions asked, along with my uber lousy theory on neurophysiology and anatomy. Am still struggling quite a bit since neuro has never been my strong point.

Anyways, there's nothing better than to end the stressful Week 1 of the attachment with nice dinner and nice company :))
Gelly, my clinical buddy recommended me this place for dinner.. *drum roll*
FOOD FOR THOUGHT @ Botanic Gardens
This branch is really huge and is located right next to the carpark, enter via Tanglin gate.
I wanted to go to the one located at 8 Queens street though, but majority vote was for botanic gardens, so well.. off we went!
DP drove around Botanic Gardens for almost an hour as 1.) it was dark 2.) we didn't notice 'Tanglin Gate'.
So by the time we arrived, it was almost 8pm.. and by then I was really starving!

without further ado, here are the pictures..!


My Basil Almond Chicken Linguine
Not very fantastic though.. it was a tad too oily :/

RT's Grilled Basil Pesto Chicken
This dish actually tasted not bad, but i guess that depends on whether you can accept the taste of basil. Cuz RT didn't like it and had a hard time finishing it.

Eileen's Grilled Barramundi Fillet
THIS IS NICE! plus it comes with some Ratatouille! Totally yummy :)
Definitely worth a try. :)

DP's Slow Roasted BBQ Baby Back Pork Ribs
this is as tasty as it looks! But i think my photography skills didn't do this dish justice.. HEHE :P
It costs $20 and it's a really huge serving! DP didn't manage to finish it, leaving 3 ribs and the salad.!


Shared this Ratatouille with DP.
I'm not a very big fan of capsicon and celery, however they made this dish totally yummy as it had rich taste of tomato and the sourness is just nice. Plus it's only $4! :D



Red Velvet Cake.
Not as yummy as what my friend had described. was disappointed with how this turn out.. The cake was too dry, the only thing i like about this is that the chocolate on top just melted in my mouth..THAT'S ALL!

Generally the food was alright. Not really fantastic. I would rate this a 3+/5 I guess. 
But the price is reasonable and the serving is HUGE! I would recommend you guys to share it if your appetite isn't very big. 

Well, after dinner, the gals wanted to go look at planes, so we headed to Changi Beach!
It was a cooling and breezy night, with many planes flying over head..
But well, i got bored after a while though.


Plane flying closer.. I like how the light from the plane shines onto the surface of the sea :))
Now, Moving onto 07/09/12,
I went out with the same clique again to get present for Preeti, a classmate of mine in TPJC whose birthday celebration is coming up.
I wore my maxi skirt for the first time ever!

So, we went to Medz @ Orchard central for dinner.
Totally like the food there! 
I shall not say more and let the few pictures do the talking.!

Rosti Potato with Sour Cream!


Donfer Beef Kebab!
They come together!!!
I shared the above 2 dishes with RT and we couldn't finish eating them ( not cause they taste horrendous).. it was too filling!!! 
But it was absolutely delish! :D
Both items combined cost us $24! Cheap and yummy!! :D

Well, I did something dumb that night though.. I made a stupid bet I couldn't get myself out of, and had to treat them to coldstone icecream in the end..
I don't even know what they ordered.. :(  

I paid for this! :'(

OK! time to end off this freaking long entry...and start doing my work and head to bed ASAP!
It's gonna be a scary + busy + uber stressful week ahead.. :(
then it'll be preeti's birthday..
so there'll be more pictures to come.. hopefully.. haha
So, all the best everyone and goodnight! :D

It's been a while!

你好! It's been AGES since I last blogged. Been busy + lazy.
I'm having my 1 week break now before going for my 3B placement next week.
Being a third year student is really not easy. It's been a mad rush since the semester started in April, without any real breaks in between. This 1 week 'break' is not any exception either. Though it's a break, there's still FYP to do and things to revise for and also one assignment to submit before going out for the second attachment. :((  I ended my attachment on 10 August, following that had to study for tests which ended on last friday, Hence the long break from blogging. HEHE.

Anyways, just some updates on things so far...

Firstly!
I met up with 2 secondary school friends on 28 July (too long ago already!) Poh Ee and Wan Zhao!
Been ages since i last met up with them. We used to be so close, but I guess cuz of our schedules and some misunderstandings, we grew apart. But yeah.. we still do meet up every now and then.
So, we met up at Ion and went shopping, but I didn't get to buy anything though.. Had Ramen at the new shop at Ion (forgot the name!), It tasted alright, worth the price I would say. We talked and laughed and ate, chatting about random stuffs and being all nonsensical. kinda miss how we were like in the past :( but i guess some changes are irreversible, and human relations are one of them.
And here are some random shots we took~
Taking picture in the toilet~

With PohPoh!

And here's Ah Zhao~

3 of us! :D
And moving on,
My clinical buddies and I had an outing on the second last day of our attachment for dinner and to get stuffs for our supervisors.
We went Vivo city to hunt for things to get. HEHE. 
Walked around, joked around and talk cock. actually nothing much eh.. hehe
So, I'll just let the pictures do the talking. (not many pics of me cuz i loook too CUI! ). :DD
Adeline walking around..

Looking at biscuits..

was trying to take a pic with ade, but william photobombed!

finally a decent shot with her!

PT01 peeps.

Zino and I

And.. another shot with my clinical buddy!
And so, this marks the end of this blog post.
HAHA. Will try to update as often as possible..

Hello!

I'm back with another blog post!
Yesterday marks the end of my second week of attachment! Just 3 more weeks to go and I'll complete CE 3A! :D

As usual, I went to hang out with the usual friday clique. First, we met up at Chinatown. Da jie and I went to get some snacks to binge on.. hehe..

We bought 韭菜盒子. DELISH! haha.. and it's only $1.50 for a huge piece :)) It's very fragrant and the skin is crispy and thick.

After that, we took a bus to Robertson Quay for dinner.
Nice place with good service and good food!



This is not Vodka. It's iced water! hehe.
The plates that they used are pretty too! Look!



So, while waiting for the food to arrive, Eileen and I went to take some pictures! 





Haha.. I look so sleepy in this shot!
After taking pictures, the food arrived!!! 


Eileen's miso prawn
This dish wasn't that fantastic. I thought it was too creamy and dry, and Eileen couldn't finish half of it cuz she was too bloated. The overall taste is alright, just that it could be better if it was less creamy.


Da jie and I shared this.. forgot the name though.
This is yummy! Except for the side dish which we chose, cuz we thought it looked interesting. hehe.. It has an unique taste to it with pine nuts and sultantas. The sausage is made of pork and has a tinge of beer to it. And mixed with the waitress's recommendations, we added Mustard sauce too. A good combination of the two!

And this was Dong Ping's food. Didn't get to taste it though, so I can't really comment much on the food. LOL.

Anyways, after dinner we went to AMK Hub for BATMAN!
The movie lasted almost 3 hrs! By the time it ended, it was already 2.45am! So sleepy!
The movie was good, but i kinda felt that they left something hanging at the end. hmmm.. not really satisfied. 
But overall it was an action-packed movie, with a few emotional scenes. Definitely worth the money!
