Oh dear where was i, the last time?
ok, checked.. it was last thursday and thats long ago... in half an hours time its 1st of november... i must start to set some regulations for myself, till the end of the month...
most important thing is....
TO LOSE WEIGHT, ive been complaining to so much people on this issue... i wanna lose 2 kg, can i survive through this test? i will be starting work for the upcoming motorshow on the 9th this month, hopefully during that period of time i will lose my weight by the 19th... cos if everything goes on fine, i would be in JAPAN, tokyo osaka or whatever... definately i wouldnt wanna add more fats to my body after that trip and i have to watch out.....
sad man
now i tend to understand why people would say things like
when u wanna lose weight, no matter how desperately you wanted to, u simply cant...
however without noticing it, u can... how sad?
so what im gonna do here today is to post some pictures ive taken for the past few days, and i wanna do a test by the end of the month, will ANDREA TEO lose that 2 kg off her.whole body..
i hope i can, and i must perservere...
so far, what ive done was to cut down on carbohydrate which ive been so tempted into it so much.... as well as sweet stuff.... like brownies, ice- cream... ive been trying to stop my mouth to open from those yummy delicious food... sweet tooth!
hmm
on friday, ive walked from my place toh tuck area to bt timah hill, climbed up the hill, and down and then to beauty world.. to buy stuff from shop and save.. carry all those and walked home again.. took about close to 2 hours for all..
some pics
having some problems loading them seems like i have to do it another day..
soon i will be starting my new course in SIM under RMIT, used to take up a course in UOL too tough man, hope this will be a better choice and everything will be fine...

There is a huge sale at Takashimaya Square and i might go back there later with my sister, bringing down more resources ( vouchers) ya hoo... We were stuck in taka due to the rain, we decided to take a cab to Katong Shopping Centre for out facial appointment. Started queuing at hte taxi stand that is very long. After waiting and finally gotten on board, we realised that the rain has stopped. Took a detour, went to the public carpark where my sis parked her car and that detour ride cost $5.
Next stop Katong s.c, i have so much pimples and blackhead so i must clear them and Aunty Merli will come to my rescue.. haha.. Aunty Merli's facials are very afforable... My sis did hers 1st and then my turn... All in all it ended about 6 plus.
We went to meet William for dinner at Majestic Hotel. Its my 2nd time there. Tell u, the food there is fantastic. The appettizer and the soft shell crab and durian ice cream is the best among all the dishes that are very good as well, so yummy.....
Durian Ice Cream, the fried batter is so tasty and so crispy. The batter is hot and hard while the durian ice cream is freezing cold and hard inside.
Dessert No.2 sorbet with aloe vera, berries, grapefruit. The frozen grapes on top. Didnt know frozen grapes are so nice, i will try making some at home.
Dessert No.3. Chinese fried pancake with redbean. This dish is pretty common so cant expect much from it. It isnt as oily as other restaurant, more healthly bah.
My sis (mei) and i enjoying our last course of the meal.... tumbs up!!
Longest Fork and Spoon ive seen. Still wondering why such length? Used for the desserts..
Appettizer, one wasabi fried prawn on top of a piece of watermelon. On the left its peking duck's skin, underneath is goose liver and i always forgot the term of it called. Anyone can tell me?
Two different cooked style of fish. The one on the left is nicer.
The famous Soft shell crab that im trying to promote on.. Its deep fried with mango sauce and diced mango. wahhhhh
Oops, load the wrong picture, this isnt from majestic hotel. This is one of the dish from imperial treasure or palace ( cant remember) at great world city. One of the better dish cos the rest not nice, to ME. Since i load it, i also lazy to remove it.
Back to the dishes at Majestic, this is the hot and sour soup, suan la tang. good sia!
Fried Mee Sua. not bad but my mom can cook better! Thats all the food i can share from there.
The picture from the appettizer onwards arent as clear as those pictures are taken with my handphone and not the camera. Not as sharp!
thats all folks.... ive once again enjoyed my delicious meal and " supersized me" SHIT!

AiYah didnt post the last one properly now i gotta redo it. Ive found the missing goods! hahha Anyway yesterday was a great day had dim sum for late lunch at swissotel, chilling out at the bar after. This picture u see here is pumpkin dish. looks sweet right? but its a savoury dish. not bad.. i dunno why but i seemed to have problems loading the pictures.
after chilling, i went to hougang to get my contact lenses, tried the define lenses. love them but expensive leh..
then to parkway to get a watch fixed, get a durian milkshake. maybe thats why im putting on weight.
Meeting some friends for lunch at the riverside indonesian restaurant.Yep the one u saw on the tv ad, my ratings for it is onli 2 out of 5 stars. haha
edible maybe its just not my type of food... moving off to the hotel i dunno what hotel is that to have desserts. faintz. luckily this time i control a little never realy eat those. much a mouth or 2. food is indeed sinful.. haha...
Home sweet home. quite a busy day, for yesterday.. I was a little stress up about the goods cos its public holiday and i dunno who to find for help... glad its over.. haha

Monday, time flies... it was quite a busy day.. i had 2 shocking moments, 1 happy moment, 1 waiting moment and 1 guilty moment.
Let me start of with the shocking moments... this has something related to my mom's job left behind for me to continue while she's having a great time in USA for her holiday. I received a pack of goods. i was expecting it to be like 60 pieces which turns out to be 222 pieces of t-shirt. I thought ive made a mistake and i have to pay for the loss.... was a little bit afraid to face the fact.. Phew! lucky her customer did order the 222 pcs... and i made a mistake on that, frightened myself and thats silly.
Next, a customer called me just then asking for her shirts which i havent hear any news of the arrival of it till now i have no idea. all the factories are close especially of the public holidays, its 2 PH for malaysia. Now, all i can pray that the goods are delivered to that house... otherwise i will be in great trouble. Or i should say that the factory did produce those goods.
One thing i hate about helping my mom when she's away. I wasnt the one handling it, now that i took over half way through i am somewhat lost....
pray pray pray!!!!
i hope i wont get that gal into trouble not even having her goods.
the happy moment- received a call from newman, some production team might call me down for an easy role of something, which i do not know and let's just see how lah,, try my luck here and there.
Waiting moment- I went for a casting for a estee lauder product, the waiting time was so long. However, i managed to cut queue cos i met a friend there whom i havent met for ages. The main gal in the JJ mv that we shoot together. In the end, i waited for an hr plus minus..
Guilty moment, like always. I feel that i ate so much and im feeling guilty towards my own body getting fatter, put on another 1 kg thats bad... Mr lee says we are going jogging tomorrow. I wonder can i survive the test of RUNNING esp with a long distance runner and i am only a 15-20 mins jogging type.... OH NO.....
well, i was all over singapore together, wasnt able to give quotation on the t-shirts some customers may need, or to communicate with the factories when i am out running errands.. tiring but a great day. Although i may have lotsa stress and worries for tomorrow due to the orders but its still a PH... right! im going to bed... good night guys
cheers

talking about the last few days, friday i ended up in zouk, met a few friends there, chit chat here and there.... most interesting thing was i met an "old friend" who i havent seen for about 1/2 a year?
didnt stay till too late, 2 plus a little then home sweet home.. that night wasnt fun, music not good either and very crowded. Luckily i managed to go in for free otherwise i will be unpleased..
Oh friday was a busy busy day for me... i thought i have all the time in the world for the morning to meet my friends for lunch, chilling out then clubbing at night. Ended up with more work.. While i was jogging received a call to go for casting within the next 2 hours, mom's customer order... rush here and there.. think i wont be able to get the job for that casting which i really want... this is the 2nd time i went for a BMW event casting, the other time they didnt want me either. was it because i dressed the wrong way? talk too much or little, no idea.
Next met Wan Ping at Tanjong Pagar MRT, follow on to VIVO city to meet YK. Had Sushi and ice cream.. till now i still havent completed my journey in VIVO after my 2nd time visit.
Came home with Wan Ping, rest a little and out late night activity begins. Timothy, my mom's long term customer came to my place collect the goods and gave us a ride there.. hehe.. thanks TIM.
William came and picked us after.. home n zzzzz
Sat was fine, had mac's hotcakes for breakfast, delivery... yummy love their hotcakes, best that ive eaten, hard to find other than mac's.
Went Bt Panjang plaza to kia kia, deliver the KFC that my sister ordered from me, rest at her place, played with little Owen... came home wash up, change and out again to Punggol for chilli crabs at Eugene's place, not bad sia, a big guy who can cook that well... had some other yummies too.. played mahjong.. lost $17, my tiles were not bad most of the time but not enough to win. the best i had was 4, doubles.. ping hu. proceed on to the movies which had them booked in the afternoon. " SCOOP" was the show and please ladies and gentlemen, if u really wanna watch this show. Wait till the DVD/VCD is out, rent them. Dont end up like me... BORING, anthan ni hao jie shao..
was a little hungry, stop over at newton for carrot cakes and home sweet home. easy as that. had some pics and i will stop them soon.
i gotta shower cos im going out again... to a few places. have a happy sunday and a great day ahead..
cheers

Catch a show " prestige"at marina square. Rushed there in 15 mins after my short shopping spree at takashimaya. Took a cab... The show is about two magicians, revenge, hated accompanied by lotsa twists... interesting, not bad show.
Ate lotsa little snacks, omg i dunno why i cant control my food intake. Am i too stress or i am just a pig.
I thought today would be nice and sweet.. i guess not.. something sort of disappoint me just then at abt 11pm.... i hope this disappointment wouldnt increase and more surprises = more disappointment... sensed a little fear in me...... danger! danger! I WILL OVERCOME IT!! lalala..
everyday will be a better day, and tomorrow will once again be beautiful for me...
maybe i missed my mom a little without knowing... mommy i love u and miss u.. oh yeah ive forgotten something good did happen today.. gotten a call from my agency... ya hoo.. something to cheer on now...

sent and some other things for ourselves. First time shop so happily without worries cos im using the vouchers. WAH..
We managed to catch up a little, another person came along to join us.
Had a drink at Orange Julius, yummy my all time favourite " orange pineapple". Next we proceed to Newton Circus for dinner. Shared 2 popiah and one duck kuey teow. AIYAH forgottent to take the pics of the food. Took some pics of ourselves though. By the way the popiah at newton is BAGUS man.. more expensive, used to be $1.50 min 2 pcs, now they are selling $1.80 each. Think the number of customers also reduce leh.
Send wan ping back, borrowed a dvd " INITIAL D" watching it the 2nd time, not even half way thru, fell asleepy. Next thing was i am awake sitting in front of my com, updating a little now and there. Lotsa things to help my mom with her goods , giving quotation. Giving me a headache, as i am not used to this.. taking a longer time to quote people on the prices. By the way, my mom's business is dealing with t-shirts. Whoever wants to get their t-shirt printed will look for her. Be it offices or schools. She also does gift products such as cups and etc.. so that is what i am trying to help her with even the delivery of t-shirts too.. haiz cant drive so getting someone to help me with it la.
So today i will have my driving class, havent been going for classes for more than a week i am worried i cant do my U -turn. We shall c my performance later.
heres some of the pictures..

muching on cookies now. bought them from west mall yesterday. not bad its from the "little jerry's cookie" gotten the mixture of flavours one is the golden oats and the other is the flaky one.... yummmy once i start i cant stop.
i always have snacks.. ranging from bread, cookie , photochips, leaft overs in my fridge... i will much all the way.. this is so bad... at this rate that im going, i will have to go marie france soon... and i wil just try to skip dinner tonight... Oh no that is so imposible..
i dont have much to do today, should be heading to town later with my sister to catch a movie, do a little shopping then meet wan ping .. gee she mentioned meet me for dinner, means i have to eat. Since its 11:47am now means i will skip lunch 1st, all that ive munched will be breakfast..
I just dont understand why sometimes losing weight is so easy and difficult too, like now..
argh...
planning to go for my driving class, but all slots are taken. thats too bad! booked one for tomorrow instead. or should i go for one late class? havent been going for classes the whole of last week due to newface. not sure if i can still do my U turns? scary man, the last time. Driving is no easy task. Im learning the manual one, changing gears with turns sux...
however nothing's gonna scare me man... steady steady pong pi pi...
weather has been bad, hot, stuffy and steamy. the haze is like the fog in genting, at night... yet its hot....
i hope this haze can clear soon. my granny got admitted due to asthma attacks.. bad bad bad...
Sunday, October 15, 2006
Havent been sleeping much and i feel like i wouldnt need much sleep either. OMG... am i turning into a zombie. i did catch some sleep but not alot leh.
anyway these 2 days has been relaxing. Didint go anywhere far, just within the west area. went bt panjang plaza for dinner with william. not bad leh the food, or maybe i am just hungry...
i shall wait till im really tired and a point i collapse... lazy to go for a swim too otherwise will be good.. turning into a big fat pig.
although my weekends may sound boring but its kinda sweet and relaxing, i reckon thats why i dont require much sleep.
Visting my granny later, sweet william bought somethings for her as she was admitted into the hospital last week due to the HAZE lead her to her asthma problems. People please be aware that haze is DANGEROUS.
Other than that im not too sure whats up more for today.. Slack all the way man.
Currently not looking forward to anything much until my next task that is "motorshow" in Nov 9. long way to go, to wait... need more jobs and my pay... waited so long.. neck so long liao, turning into a giraffe.
This morning, i did some preparations of food, going to have prawn cubes fried rice.. yummm
to be continue...

One more day to the finals.
Yesterday's rehearsal is tiring yet fun especially for the night rehearsal when they start playing the music. my group (4) was dancing at the backstage. I think its good as ot relaxes our mind and keep us calm.
Slept at 2 plus woke up at 9 plus, awaken by some sms. Friends telling me that they saw me on the straits time with the highest votes. I thought it was some small article,maybe not highest but just mentioning of my name or so.. shocking enough to see something different and i must really thank my friends and relavtives who has supported me so far. Thank you so much!really appreciate u guys. Winning isnt the main issue, but the support given made me half a winner in yours and my eyes. XIE XIE NI!
couldnt get a picture online so i have to take it with my camera.
At the beginning, i was worried that no one would even sms me. To prevent myself to end up with 0 sms, i sms myself once on first day at least it wont be too ugly.
As for the rest of my day till evening, i will be slacking at home. Blogging can now be my next part time hobby. This is so fun. Simply cant stop writing, i have so much in mind. Hoping for more new things to come along. When i was little i always think i am not in luck ( very suay) whatever that i do teacher will scold. Hate studying but forced to. Doing everything against my will, not within my area of interest at all. Still with the encouragement of my mother. So far, i still managed to pull through all the way till ive completed my diploma in Building and Real estate management in Ngee Ann polytechnic, might then move on to a degree linked to it.
Previously, i was doing business in SIM which wasnt something i could handle. Not to drag it further ive decided to stop and considering of switching course to building. If nothing goes wrong i should start next year SIM (part time). Although that year seems wasted, but there were new stuff coming along. School pageant, MSU now newface.. haha geez... life is full of hopes. So never to say die.
Talking about studying... ARGH till now i still Hate it. What to do, like everyone would say " A DEGREE IS A MUST" fair enough and i also agree with it. I will work hard on it man. My path in education is longer than other people. Am i "less" smart or "slow"? haha just something i dun like la. I have basic 6 years in primary school. Was from a top primary school leh to a neighbourhood school. Got condemed real bady like a teacher who i shall not name and no longer in the school and i know she is still alive too. OOPS..
I wont send my children to a top school, teachers are BIAS even till now i still think BIAS exist in schools. Rich kids better luck, poorer ones dont even think about it UNLESS that particular teacher's main INTEREST is to teach. Ive met a couple before and i really liked them.
Moving on to secondary school. I didnt do well in my PSLE as good as the prelims. Admitted into the normal academic course. Fortunately i should say, in N(A) course you are given a chance to do your O levels if you pass you N levels otherwise you can just go ITE.
1st 3 years in school, i did pretty well. was in the top 25% overall standard. received bursary every year. UNTIL sec 4.. BGR problemsssssss
BGR provide sweetness and sorrow. That bf is still my friend and in my friendster. At the end of the day ive never treated ex- bfs as enemies. Failed my prelims for N levels. My form teacher called my mom to inform her about it. My mom, April locked me in the room for the next 2 weeks before the exact exam starts. I passed my N levels and moving to my o levels.
It was a huge jump from N to O levels. Different syllabus. All subjects are tough. Bad in science, bother chemisty and physic. Never passed a single test throughout the year. Towards the end, i passed 3 subjects. Could only applied Nursing and Maritime Transportation in poly. Applied a course ( hotel management) at Shatec. Got accepted, yet decided to re-do my O. preferred studying in a poly and was my mom and my dream. Facilities part will be better and cheaper. After my second attempt, i passed my science (MIRACLE) thanks to my tuition teacher. MR LEE teaching at Marsiling. I didnt go back to school to resit it, instead i was a private student. Didnt do anything for that year and relatives love to ask. All along my pride is always hurt, losing to other cousins..they always love to ask about my results.. hate it
To me things ive been through is an learning experience. Learned to pick up my pride telling people my flaws. Laugh if you want and dont be bothered ( still learning that though) if you think i am not good enough to be your friend, same goes for you.
:)
Next, i combined my cert got into Ngee ann. Thats when life really starts. Found close friends from there. Secondary sch frens mostly disappoint me. Things picked up and i didnt fail a single subject in poly man... lol
I hope people who read this thinks that life sux or having the same problem like me can find this encouraging and helpful.
find myself very long winded, cant control leh... aunty le

We took a bus 174 thinking that we might have enough time to reach taka before 7. At the same time we are worried that we will be late again, so half way through we dropped off at a bus stop near NJC. No cabs was stopping at all, and we are like in big trouble cos its already 630 by the time we decided to drop off.
A nice cab stopped and asked for our location, and he agreed to send us there which was good. We arrived at taka 10 mins earlier. took some some pictures to get a feel of the stage. We are expecting it to be cold and freezing but we are so wrong. The spot lights above us are producing lotsa heat. Fortunately we are wearing sleeveless. Poor Naaz was in her sweater.
The rehearsal went well and smooth and im very happy about it. Later at 4pm we will have our next fittings, still wondering what i will be given to wear. Fittings should take some time. Next we will have our 930pm rehearsal where the dancers are going to join us... hours passing and more excitements on its way... WOW
Im more excited about this compared to MSU, i guess the stage is much bigger and the crowd should also be huge. Right in the centre of taka. Runway is long and its a real runway show, my first time on something such big scaled. More like a fashion runway than a beauty pageant.
Other than this contest, there is another exciting thing im looking forward to. Not telling much people about it and i shall keep it in suspense till friday or earlier? haha
anyway, this is my very first blog which i am not sure who to begin with and whether or not i am doing it the right way too. As simple as it is, i will write a little bit about myself to begin with. I am currently a part time model with Looque, seems like other than modelling i havent been doing another other jobs other than helping my mom every now and then. perharps, i should consider it as a full time for now. Until school starts. Mostly likely i will be going back to SIM, instead of UOL i would do a part time degree with RMIT , to be confirm.
Been an animal lover since young. I can say that when i was little i love my pets so much until i might have ill treated them not knowing how to really love one well. Animals that i had couldnt survive more than a month. Until i had my first rabbit when i was 12 plus in secondary one. My mom decided to allow me to have a pet in order to encouage me to study and indeed help me to Improve. Had rabbits for about 10 years and i will post a blog on them... especially blackie. Those we have seen my friendster would be aware of him.
So, today after attending a food tasting party at Bobby's located in CHIJMES invited by Lawrence who sort of encouraged me to start my own blog. Probably, he is saying it as a casual remark but in another way i think he is right and i should start my very own blog... should be fun, i guess.
The food at Bobby's are fantastic, especially the ribs. Hmmm! love it all the food that they served suit my kind of taste. By the way, i am a food lover, i enjoy my food and love taking pictures of them and that is why most of the time i would bring my camera around.
recently, ive gotten a new camera given by a sweet guy named William. Its supposed to be my christmas present but received it much earlier. Its good though cos im already enjoying being the owner of it. Its beautiful, Pearl white.. SONY DSC-T10, 7.2 mega pixels. Still, ive yet to read the instruction manual.. haha, i will do so soon to make good use of it.
Tomorrow, no. Later i mean i have a 7am rehearsal for newface at taka. Means from now onwards i am left with 5 hours of sleep? cant write much for today and will continue soon. what i can say is Miss Singapore Universe is much more tiring compared to newface. The amount of preparation. Im looking forward to the finals which is on 13th oct, 7pm at taka too.
thats ann, ME and velda from newface
I hope im able to do well and i will do my best. Gotta run to ZZzzzz...
