02.09.08 Wall-E

Author: Jeneral // Category: ,














Howdy, I just watched Wall E with SY & SQ this morning.
I must say I was impressed.
I didn't know quite what to expect.
But it was an enjoyable movie.
Very funny.
4.5 out of 5 stars.
Go watch it yourself!

Also had dinner with Shaun & Friends.

01.09.08 Edogawa + Michelle's Birthday

Author: Jeneral // Category: , ,















Mmm, Always a smart move to put food pictures at the start of blog post.
It attracts attention instantly.
Today, I went to visit my aunt at Novena.
She has 7 dogs! All which are very nice looking and obedient.

After the visit, I went to Edogawa restaurant for lunch.
The picture above is my tepanyaki set (Tepanyaki still on the Tepan, not yaki yet).
Below, everyone got a desert, including Ru (my cousin, happily sticking out her tongue)



















































My Princess & Juniors gathered to celebrate Michelle's Birthday @ Cineleisure.
Helpful princess took this photo for us.
Thanks hime-sama!

30.08.08 RSAF OH 08

Author: Jeneral // Category: , , ,
They say a picture tells a thousand words.
Now I've a picture with a caption.
Does it tell thousand & six words?










































































Don't think I need much captions for the rest.
Basically I took photo with a helicopter, plane & Anti-Aircraft Missile Laucher.

Happily posted all these after having a get together with family & relatives.
Happy to see them once more before I enter NS.

29.08.08 Last Day of RP Work

Author: Jeneral // Category: ,
Well, I suppose all good things must come to an end.
It's time to move on.
Today's my last day at RP as a staff.
I'm feeling a little emotional, I'll be leaving twice, once a student, now as a staff.

Still, I had an enjoyable time as a temp in RP.
Made possible by my wonderful colleagues.
I got them a little leaving present (Bag of Famous Amos).
But of course, no journey is complete without photos.



That evening, I met SQ & SY to celebrate them finishing their exams.
Myself, I had finished work and was entering NS in 2 weeks time.
A Nice meal at Fish & Co.
SQ went clubbing after that.
SY & Myself went down to McCafe Tamp for a Tea before heading home.

Memories In RP 27.08.08

Author: Jeneral // Category:














A Pic Taken From Eco-Flea Market Sometime in July.
During my 2nd week of work.

From Left (Fu Hai, Myself, Aqilah, Caroline, Kelvin)

My contract in RP has almost finished.
I'll be heading to Army in 16 days. Less than 3 weeks time.
Now I have memories as both a Staff & Student.
Just recapping some of the fond memories created here.
















Pika Mountain, Shortly after the Eco Flea Market,
We played this big sweet land machine and won these furry little fellas.
















Last day of work for SAS Temp Staff.
Well, this is also shortly after the Eco-flea Market.
Added one more guy to the picture.
From Left (Wee Chong, Myself, Kelvin, Aqilah, Fu Hai, Caroline)
All great people with great personality.
Thanks for just being there guys.
My stay in RP could not have been so enjoyable without you.















Don't Know Why We Took This Strange Photo.
I'm standing on a ramp using a timer on the camera.
Everyone else is on a platform.
However strange, its still a memory to remember.

Sick Tea 25.08.08

Author: Jeneral // Category: ,
Its a Monday...
I woke up with a start, unable to breathe.
Discovered I had a sore throat & blocked nose.

Went to work.
Felt totally crappy.
Got sent home.

Went on a errand before going home.
Supposed to collect HD for Chris.
Chris 2nd HD spoilt...
Used my HD for data transfer.

Sitting at Mac Cafe while typing this.
Sipping a Warm Himalayan Milk Tea.
Being sick sucks, especially when you walked in a little rain yesterday.
Fever, Sore Throat, Blocked and Runny Nose, Headache.

Dang Fireworks Missed 24.08.08

Author: Jeneral // Category:
Dang, I missed watching fireworks 3 times this weekend.
The weekend started on Fri evening.
I was going to collect Chris's HD from Data recovery center.
They decided to close early.
Mission Failed...

After which I went to Princess to find Tian Xi a gift for his birthday.
We decided to get him a CD after much contemplation.
I also managed to get myself a sports attire after so long.
We were at Marina Square shopping, and just outside the fireworks were boom-ing.
Stuck at the CD shop, we missed the entire show...

On Sat, I had an SAS gathering.
Raymond, Tern Poh, Maisur and myself met at Bugis and walked over to Mind Cafe.
Sadly, besides the food and the talk, everything else was rather dull.
I thought the event started too late (We were there at 2, they started at 4 to 6)

Tian Xi's Birthday on the other hand, was happening!
Playing GTA 4 on his PS3.
Mahjong with my Bros & Sis from Church.
Card Games & FOOD!
Excellent Party!
Birthday Boy sure seemed Happy!
We had an excellent view of the city.
Except the fireworks were hidden behind buildings.
Crap...

Sun, I started to feel sick after church.
Must be the walk in the rain.
I bought a Paradise Worship CD.
Went Gym with SQ, Jun Long, Tiong Wee & Nicholas.
Walked in the rain again.
Went home to watch the Olympics Closing Ceremony.
Missed the fireworks as I went to bath...

Still Coffee 18.08.08

Author: Jeneral // Category: ,




















Happy Birthday Tiong Li!

We visited Coffee Bean on Saturday for a quick coffee.
Just to catch up and wish him a Happy Birthday.
Banana Chocolate Ice Blend was tasty!
After that, I visited Mac for a double cheeseburger dinner.
And we went home.
Nice to keep in contact!

Anyway, I'm quite into watching Vampire Knight!
I especially like the creepy end song titled "Still Doll."
Enjoy!

Shokudo Delights 16.08.08

Author: Jeneral // Category:















Let's Start this post with some mouth watering pictures.

A Picture of A Burger @ Shokudo Raffles City.
It was a rather decent burger costing $6.
With lots of meat, veggies & and generous serving of fries.
The only pity was that the food froze so fast.
The Aircon was cold.
















As you know by now. I visited Shokudo Raffles City with SY & SQ.
My dinner was that burger plus a scrumptious egg omelet.
Excellent nosh. But the price was rather posh, I paid a total of $14.
















After which, SQ, SY & myself retreated to nearby Marina Square to play pool.
Each one of us pulled off some pretty nice stunt shots.
Then we returned home for a good nght sleep.

Strawberry Smiles 15.08.08

Author: Jeneral // Category: ,














Strawberry Smile - Taken off flickr


Its quiet...
Deafening quiet in the office.

The school is deserted, due to the HOLIDAYS!
If I was a student, I'll be jumping for joy!
Holidays, I look forward to them always!

But I'm a working young adult (emphasis on the young part)!
I enjoy the spacious bus seat compared to cramp corner next to the door.
Cause there are nil/almost nil students competing for the same seat!!





















Anyway, let's talk about meeting Dave.
I met Princess after work yesterday.
Shared a Strawberry Smile with her.
Had a quick LJS dinner. (I notice LJS don't have veggies!!)

Met Dave @ Cathy CWP
Its a funny movie, not quite as lame as The Love Guru.
I laughed my head off at the awkward responses Eddie Murphy delivered trying to pose as a human (Wait, he is Human, So he is acting like a Alien acting to be Human!)

Enjoyable Comedy with a tinge of romance.
Loads of funny.
Decent Graphics.
Clean storyline. (No nitty gritty details to confuse you)

I give it a 4 out of 5 Stars! (Watch it Dude!)
Enjoyable Buniversary!

Wedding & Couple Shots 11.08.08

Author: Jeneral // Category: ,
















Life gets funny sometimes.
After work, I went down to clementi to fetch my cute princess.
After all, it was princess's first day at school (NUS).
Princess was all geared for battle with backpack and lappie.

We traveled down to town to have dinner at KFC.
However, KFC was full (too bad for them)
We decided to have dinner at BK instead.
First time eating fries without guilt since the 40 days fast.
Ahh that was nice!

While we were walking around Marina Sq hand in hand.
Marina Sq was having a wedding exhibition.
It so happened we had to walk past it to get out.
Without so much batter of an eyelid, those hungry salespeople were out in full force.

I loved the look of a uncle's face there best.
He came and asked if princess and I wanted wedding photos.
Then he noticed the school logo on my shirt.
Politely, he asked "Are you a student?"
Without waiting for my reply, he retreated.
I was totally tickled pink.

However, Princess wasn't that lucky.
A lady approached us and asked princess if she wanted photos.
When princess replied she was a student
The lady changed her tactics in that moment she heard was a student.
Asking her if she wanted couple shots...
Whattaway to do sales!

After a long sales pitch, we told her we weren't interested.
But still, we got away, $500 for couple shots in a studio.
Hmm, kinda ex don't you think?

Pika & Rai @ RP Lays Fest 08


Dear Bloggy,

I've been in formal wear for the past 2 days.
Busy with foreign visitors coming to school.
Sometimes it pays to help with logistics.
You get to grab a tray of dessert if you're lucky.
















It's quite an experience organizing big events.
But I guess that was what I came to RP for.
To work in a dept that does events.
My desk is decorated with cute soft toys.
Probably might make a pokemon lover jealous.
















Whole Family Gathering!

First @ NYDC 06.08.08

Author: Jeneral // Category: ,














Three Amigos


My First Time Eating At NYDC.
Strangely the place only sells pasta/pizza/desserts...

Met my Aunt & Mum at Somerset MRT.
Walked down Orchard Road to NYDC.
Had Three Amigos Pasta.
Then had a Brownie for dessert.

Interesting place. I liked the ambiance & dessert, but didn't like the selection of food.
I guess they really fitted to authentic NY cuisine.
Overall, I enjoyed myself.

Charm Charm Day 05.08.08

Author: Jeneral // Category:















Every Charm Charm Has His Day!
Charmander with his new owner.


Dear Bloggy,

Today, I gave Charm Charm away to Princess.
She liked his big head and orange body.
Thats probably why she wore orange to meet me today.
Coming from her NUSSU (Prounced: Nuu Suu) flag day.
She was in matching Charm Charm Colors.

I tried to bring her to watch a movie at plaza sing.
However, her head felt too heavy to lift and we decided to Arcade instead.
That's our day.

Ps (Princess Got A NUS Jacket [From Me] & An Ice Cream Too)

Eco Week 02.08.08

Author: Jeneral // Category: ,







































Movie Posters (The Mummy 3 Tomb of the Dragon Emperor) Vs (Money No Enough 2)

Wow, its the month of August already??
Time sure flies, on the 29th of this month I'll be leaving my current job.
By Sept I'll be enlisted and whisked away to do National Service.
Less & Less time to train up for army.

This week I'm thankful for many things.
One of them is being able to help-out in the Eco-flea Market.
It's a chance to save the earth (recycle), make new friends and even do charity work.

At the same time, I'm also paid for work. LOL!
I saved a Pikachu & Charmander from the trash bin.
After which, I played one of those Big Sweet Land Machines and won
~Pikachu
~Pooh Bear in Tiger Suit
~2 Esso Tiger Cubs, (Kitties!)
Now I have a nice family of soft toys adorning my office desk.

I;m just glad that God has watched over this week and made it well.
Especially on Wed, where I had to hand in my Time-sheet (for work)
Buy A Cake for Shaun (Happy Birthday Shaun!)
Attend 144 Leaders Meeting.

All this in a short time span of 1 hour.
It was a miracle I managed to make it to the meeting .
There I was blessed to see Pastor Poh saved food for others & I!
Then I was asked to scan my IC for attendance.
Strangely I was never told to do so before...
Blessed week!

The Amazing Board 23.07.08

Author: Jeneral // Category: ,
*All rise for the Board*
~Boardroom members enter through stage left
~Makes their way to their seats
~Everybody sits down together.

Today I attended a school board meeting.
The only reason why I was there was because I was helping out with the event.
It certainly was an eye opener.
~Being introduced to the new principal.
~Listening to industry terms I never quite heard before, L3 pay??
~Listening to the new P's vision
- Making sure RP Students & Graduates have the same chance to compete for jobs and places in university as other Polytechnic students.


The entire system, which I went through was being dissected and discussed before my very ears. The angle and depth which was used for the discussion was on an entirely different level from a student's viewpoint such as me. I'm Enlightened.

Sadly, the good thing there is also a bad thing.
The discussion was made possible by the directors and assistant directors.
It was also because of them that everything there was sophisticated.
Till such a point that they probably didn't notice the helpers around.
The again, some people go by the standard, no news is good news.
Hence no notice means everything went well... (I hope)

It would be nice, if they bothered to mingle with the staff helping out.
Oh well, wishful thinking.
Oh, The Dark Knight was nice!

The President's Visit 22.07.08

Author: Jeneral // Category: ,
Dear Bloggy,

Its been a while since I posted till now.
Within that time, I've went through quite a bit.
Watching of 2 movies,
-Get Smart
-Wanted
Both which were excellent. Thought I believe that WANTED was pretty good a 4/5 stars.
Get Smart gets a 3.5 out of 5 stars.
Thats Good already!

During the short time.
I've also switched Jobs back to the school I came from.
Well, despite me being pretty much lost in the office.
I'm pretty much content in what I would be getting and doing.

Managed to see the President up close today.
They distributed clappers which were exceedingly difficult to inflate.
Ended up waving without em. Hrump...
Smiley friendly-looking president waved back!

Probably might watch Dark Knight later this evening.
Hopefully it doesn't end too late and I'm not too tired.
That's about all for this post.

27 Jun 08 Go Red Rider!

Author: Jeneral // Category: , ,

Picture Taken From MadBoutItaly

Dear Bloggy,

Today I had an exciting experience.
Riding Pillion on my friend's Red Vespa!

He rode to work today, taking me along.
It was certainly windy, more windy than riding in a car.
Unless, riding in a convertible (which I rode a few times)
Thanks Grandad!

It certainly was a different experience, weaving between cars.
Feeling the engine rev right under your butt.
Doesn't quite encourage me to get my own bike.
But still it's a wonderful new experience.



After Work, I packed my room.
Went to gym with SQ.
Saw a huge rat at the foodcourt! OMG
Dad picked up an handsfree set for me!
Exciting Happy Day!

^^Praise God for a Happening Week!^^

26 Jun 08 Where did the $$ go??

Author: Jeneral // Category: , ,

~Picture Taken From some Uni Webbie bout Financial Services

OMG!!

$59 missing!
OMG why did all the people all pay cash today!

Work is hazardous when you're working with cash!
Especially when you have too many cashiers around.
#The saying too many cooks spoil the broth#

I don't believe I was the one at fault.
But it was really messy when you have 100+ people paying.
My colleague on my right kept shaking/hitting my arm whenever counting cash or serving customers. ~ Irritating idiot

In the end, 3 cashiers ended up paying for the missing $60.
We suspected someone over-changed the customers.
T_T $20 each, my pay is $24
%No pay for today. $4 used to cover transport...
