Feels So 特务J!

*Ta-dah!!*...


I am now 特务P!! Ahahaa... No more long hair! I have finally told my hairstylist to snip off my long hair that was kept for the last 10 years! Hehee...

Actually, I have considered about cutting my hair short for quite awhile... Always thinking of cutting short but did not have the courage to... Yesterday, I finally made up my mind to do so coz I was so bored with my long hairstyle. The most I can make changes to was to the colour, not much of a change in the style... Thus, decided to cut it short for a change!

Now I am back to black hair again... no more blondie... I love drastic colour changes to my hairstyle!! Hahaa!! But it's not fully black this time... coz there are streaks of purple on my fringe! This concave hairstyle was meant to shorter at the back but coz my hairstylist is afraid that I might regret cutting my hair short so he insisted that I take this length first... so in the end the concave does not look like a concave bcoz it isn't steep at all... in fact it looks more like a one length cut. I want the concave to be more steep next time! Anyway... I still like my current hairstlyle though and I did not regret cutting my hair short. But I am a little not used to the colour yet coz it has suddenly become so black!

I think this hairstyle looks abit similar to 特务J! =P

By2 - Talented Singaporeans

Host unlimited photos at slide.com for FREE!


Seen these 2 twins on a music video called PP別黏在椅上 on the chinese MTV channel last week and the one with the straight fringe immediately reminds me of Jolin in her younger days!

Anyway, I did a music video search on Youtube and realized that they are actually Singaporeans!! That's not all... they are 16 years old, sings well, one of them plays the keyboard, the other plays the violin... and both are freaking good at hip hop dancing!! I think they are COOOOOOOL!!!!!!!! Really admire their talent and youth!!

Seeing them made me realized that I have aged so much... Sadz, I am so damn old now... but they also reminds me of my younger days when I took up singing classes hoping to become a star one day... Yeah, the only difference is that By2's effort has paid off in fulfilling their dream but for me, I gave up halfway on my singing lessons coz the fees were too expensive and I lack the x-factor, confidence and morale support! I guess it is now different from the past... Last time, if you tell others that you want to become a star, they might tell you to dream on or even laugh at you for being so unrealistic... unlike now there are so many singing competitions to take part on TV - Campus Superstar, Project Superstar, Superband, etc... By2 can even quit school to fulfil their singing dream!

Although I know it is hard to fulfil my dream, at least I still managed to convince my mother to let me take up singing courses for about 1 year, hoping that some day I can become a star too. I was with Hark Music for 9 month and then I left and change to Lee Wei Song School of Music for 3 months bcoz it was then a more popular singing school than the rest due to the popularity of Stephanie Sun! However, I gave up bcoz the monthly course fee was too expensive and I think my other classmates have got more powerful voices than me... in which made me feel that I do not stand the chance to be talent-scouted. And so I thought I might as well quit so as not to waste my mother's money.

Still not giving up, I secretly sent in my application to take part in the Ocean Butterflies Music Forest singing audition in 2001 and received a call to attend to audition... so I went to the audition alone... I chose to sing Stephanie Sun's 开始懂了 bcoz I sang this same song at the Hark Cafe during my stage exposure session when I was taking my course at Hark Music. Unfortunately, I forgot my lyrics after the 3rd/4th phrase during the audition due to stage fright and nervousness! Heheee... I was utterly disappointed with myself! But few weeks after the audition, I received a letter from Ocean Butterflies to inform that I was shortlisted in the top 20% to sign up in the 非常歌手訓練班. Then again, course fee was too expensive for me at that time so I did not sign up for the course. But was really happy and glad to be in the top 20%!!! Kekeke... =D

Errr... I was supposed to talk about By2 but ended up talking about myself... duhhh... =p Anyway, those were some good old memories of mine!

Oh yes, I was mentioning about their dance... I think they are really good! I like singers who dance well!! Jolin is one example! Hahaaa!!! The songs in By2's album are quite nice too!! I like 好好愛^O^, 不夠成熟, 愛ㄚ愛ㄚ, PP別黏在椅上 and 太難搞.

Here's some video clips on their dance practices and performances.

Happy Birthday To My Special You!!!

Today is Deardear's birthday!! Happy birthday to him!... But I am not feeling happy myself... bcoz he chose to go back to work today... =( Why must he be working even on his birthday?? Although he went back to work on his own will but I just think the actual day should be spent with me loh! Hmmph!! Why take 1 day leave also cannot meh??!!! What's the problem with taking leave on a special occasion?? Why no matter what also must work at least 5 days in a week one meh???.... Arrrrgh!!! So irritating!!!...

Anyway, I know by making so much noise here also no use... coz he is a workaholic!! Ok... so much for my complains...

Actually, I have already celebrated Deardear's birthday with him yesterday instead. Hehee... But I am greedy, I wish I could have somemore time to spend with him today as well! In fact, we went out earlier than usual yesterday... we went to catch the movie - 'The Mummy - Tomb of the Dragon Emperor' at Lido in the afternoon first, then went shopping along Orchard Road and lastly, went to the Seafood Paradise Restaurant at the Singapore Flyer for dinner around 8plus.

It took us some time to reach the restaurant as the NDP Preview was held yesterday, so many of the roads were blocked. In the end we had to park at Millenia Walk then walked over to the Singapore Flyer.


Yesterday was our second visit to the restaurant bcoz we simply missed and had the craving for their butter crab, which is their signature dish! Love the sauce!! It's sooo yummy!!! The last time we went there was also on the day when they held the NDP full-dress rehearsal. On that day, we actually heard and saw the live firing of the canons, the air show and the fireworks right outside the restaurant. Too bad we missed it yesterday bcoz we went there too late. But we saw the fireworks from afar while travelling in the car on CTE.

Anyway, we had a 'feast' yesterday!! We ordered 4 dishes althogether which we cannot finish and had to ta-bao the leftover crab home... But it's ok lah, we are used to it bcoz we always over do it!! Hahaa!! =p


The 4 dishes that we ordered were the butter crab, baked salted egg baby lobster, sambal asparagus and the coffee porkribs. Initially we wanted to order the herbal drunken prawns in claypot but unfortunately they ran out of stock for their live prawns, so we replaced that dish with the baby lobster. The total bill came up to $107, which was considered cheap coz we expected it to be more.

After dinner, we went to the eco-garden for a walk where we had some fun time feeding the fishes and taking photos... I enjoyed making the fishes go mass-orgy at the spot where I threw the food, seeing them snatching to eat the food and making the water splashing sound, as if they will jump out of the water!


In fact I actually wanted to go to T3 after dinner... coz I thought of giving Deardear his birthday present there. But he said to come back to my house instead... so sianz... If I knew this earlier, I wouldn't have brought his birthday card and present out with me for the whole day. Anyway, I had no choice but to give him the present after we reached home...

Despite me trying to give him a surprise, he has already expected what I bought for him. Chey... No surprise one... *Bleh!*
