ANIME FESTIVAL 2009


AHHHHHH!!! This is so exciting haha. No I am not an otaku okay. THEN WHY AM I SO EXCITED!?

Well, when I was a little girl, cloud strife * a character from Final Fantasy* is like my world. I know, damn loser, but yea. So while growing up I have seen many failed cosplayers of Cloud.

TILL THIS DAY.

THIS! My friends, is Cloud strife. Some say he looks like a girl, but I think he looks ultra fine! And what I'm about to show you, is the REAL LIFE COSPLAYER of CLOUD.

TA-DAAAAA!!!

Known as Kaname, and yes the first ever most cloud look alike I have ever seen! Yes he is a living breathing hot guy.

website: http://ja.curecos.com/picture/detail?id=9571180

AND HE WAS AT THE ANIME FESTIVAL (AFA)!!!! AND I DIDN'T GET TO SEE HIM!!

Yes you read it right my friends.

I DIDN'T GET TO SEE HIM.

But I guess it is alright, because I still had fun in some other ways such as!

Taking pictures with these two awesome cosplayers! Especially the one on the right. Looked like he wanted to Sashimi my fats or something *stare*.

And I went with my brother and one of his Best Friend Damian!! I know, at this time and age which sister actually hangs around her brother.

But well, I DO! Hahaha and I am proud of it. Because free lunch provided *Wink wink*

Steve would worship this stall, and would probably have to be tranquillize and dragged away.

The art exhibit, and SIGH, people sure are talented! When I am learning to draw, people are already using computer to CG stuff.

UGH UGH UGH! Always one step ahead but Yan lin is always a mile behind =(

*Hyperventilates* cloud........

What I would give to collect this series. But no, I only stopped at book 3 because I ran out of Money. Buying comics used to be my hobby, till someone had to spoil it all by introducing me MANGAFOX.

I still buy comics though, but now it is harder to afford with my pathetic paycheck, unemployment and ability to spend all my money in one day.


I think my brain must have gone haywire. I was walking by this uh.. DOG? and my mind went CLICKED.

FLASH: YOU'VE NEVER TAKEN A PICTURE WITH A MASCOT BEFORE!!

So I just had to. I think the suit was really warm, because I felt heat rise from the dog. It was soft, cuddly and definitely huggable.


JUST LIKE BEE HONG!!! HAHAHAHAH!



The art gallery where people sell their artworks. No money to support them this time. SIGH.

Andrea and Me. Shortie. HAHAHAHHAHAH!!

Rachel, Finny and Me.

THE MAID CAFE!!!!

I went out for lunch with my bro and met my friends at the maid cafe!!! Where I bought a coke that cost $3.50.

Pretty expensive, but well, you don't get serve so well! Plus you get to be addressed as Master and Mistress MUAHAHAHA!

But it was highly awkward for me, and it must be very bad on Peter too. That guy was like having some nervous breakdown.

During lunch with Bro and Damian, we went Waraku@Marina Square. Yea the one outside, and not the pasta shop.

This is my first time being here, and well, the set lunch I ate was pretty normal. It was pork cutlet rice, with udon and potato salad.

Close up of the pork cutlet. One thing I really like about Waraku is that they have an awesome large serving, so you don't have to worry that the food portion is not big enough.

And I think they have small portions for people who are hungry yet not so hungry haha.

The fried Squids that we all shared. It came with this sauce that makes it all so delicious when you dip in it. I'm a sucker for squids.

Damian and his katsudon, Soba and udon! Big eater!! hahahhahah

My brother felt cheated because he ordered the beef but they only gave him a few pieces. But it was nice anyway. The beef is stewed in sweet sauce and comes with Udon and Potato Salad.

Yes yes we get it Hahah.

Ben 10 rocks. Lately I am trying to find out why my Ben 10 has grown from small boy to big boy. Because, as Joanna loves to mention, that my TV

ONLY HAVE BASIC CHANNELS!!!!

Sad right. Everyone is like talking to my face about having cartoon network and disney channel. It hurts my feelings. =(

I survive on animal planet.

The concert stage. Where Kaname has stepped on. Don't worry, I'm not so retarded/crazy as to lick it.

It is just... wow...

Alright those who have absolutely no interest in anime and must have SCROLLED ALL THE WAY DOWN AND SEE THOSE HAPPY HAPPY PICTURES!!

ROAR. READ!!! I spent time typing these text you know.

DAMIAN IS HOME!


So he bought back some apple strudel as requested and paid for by my brother. man it tasted so good, the morning I ate it, I thought it was Christmas day. Seriously.

Bells ringing. Fats jiggling.



COLLECTING TICKETS WITH RACHEL

Rachel and Me went down to suntec to collect the AFA tickets! And below are some really interesting stuff we saw while walking through the esplanade.

What do you think this looks like?

HAHAHAHAHA!! RACHEL LOOKS LIKE THE DINOSAUR ABOVE!!

ATTACK OF THE GUMMY BEARS! Pictures taken by Rachel.

Don't they ever get mouldy?! WHAT ARE WE FEEDING OUR KIDS???!!!

Lunch @ AMBUSH

Tiramisu. We went to AMBUSH at Taka basement. I know I am a noob but I just found out a treasure cove of food at the basement of Takashimaya!

From Fried Fish batters to German sausages to AMBUSH!!!

AMBUSH SELLS THE BEST SWEDISH MEATBALLS!! I always thought IKEA was the best, but not anymore! Thanks to Rachel's recommendation!

I am going to bring the rest there to eat one day.

Lovers of swedish meatballs, please do try it!

Rachel had the seafood pasta. looks wonderful, but I didn't try it, so can't comment much.

The total I paid, including tiramisu and drinks is $15. There are other set meals to choose from the the meatball pasta was just perfect for a afternoon lunch.






THE OPENING OF A NEW THAI RESTUARANT

SUCK IT IN SHI HUI!! I HAD AWESOME ICE CREAM, I HOPE YOU ARE LOOKING AT THIS LATE AT NIGHT IN YOUR COLD DARK ROOM!!

HAHAH! Payback!! Anyway good luck for your assignments/exams!

Okay back to the thai food a promised you.


Rice with olive and pork! My grandfather ate the whole pot which was meant for 2. IT MEANS SOMETHING YOU KNOW. He doesn't like salty food and other things, but he finds this absolutely wonderful!

Plus the place is packed during dinner hours. Hope it doesn't close down though, like the korean restaurant. SIGH, I didn't even get to try it.

My Tom Yam noodle soup! I was abit skeptical about it at first, because I had Tom yam in Singapore before, and it as hell tasted like packet Tom Yam.

But this Tom Yam Soup was awesome! Not only was it cooked by a real Thai Chef, the spiciness was just right!

Chicken Feet salad. With some lemon and veggies. PLUS CHILI PADI!!

Thai fish cake. With peanut sauce! My mum actually wanted Otah haha.

LIFE OF A STUDENT

Today I woke up and shook my wallet. A depressing 5 cents dropped out. It seems I either starve or cook my own lunch.

Classes start at 9am. It is 8.50am and I have yet to changed. So within 10mins, I changed, whip up a meal and left the house.

So mum, I hope you are reading this. Because December is a long long time, and I might not make it alive for Christmas, considering my 1 digit bank account amount.

Andrea's awesome food.

Darsarni's awesome food.

And of course we celebrated it with a family dinner atther favourite teochew restaurant at Bendeemer Road.

INCENTIVE ON GOING FOR A FLU STAAAAB *horrors*


I mean Jab.


On a cold rainy friday afternoon, the class ended and everyone was planning on going to watch 2012.

It was very tempting. A promise of good friends and good food, plus a good show. However, I had a piror appointment and promise....

THAT I WILL GO GET MY H1N1 FLU JAB


Like a kid, I was lured by the promised of good food too, and it was extremely tempting considering the fact that I only have a single digit amount of money left in my awesome golden magic card.

So thus, I find myself with my whole family having Lunch at a OLD HONG KONG restaurant in Novena Square.

I feel like a starving-cannot-make-it-in-life-artist. Can't even sell my drawings for cash. *sigh*


While having lunch, it took my mind off what was to come, and the yellow sweet and salty taste of my sutard egg yolk bun totally brainwashed me. I'm a happy person =)


Mushroom dumpling. Best I have ever tasted so far, apart from the Dim Sum in Hong Kong itself.

Ha Kau, also known as prawn dumpling.

Every Hong kong Restaurant is sure to have.. MILK TEA! Just had to try it, and well, pretty much the same everywhere.

PIG INTESTINE, STOMACH, LIVER AND KIDNEY PORRIDGE!

Yes kiddos, you're missing out in life if you don't try this. The nice thick porridge, with soo much flavour in it, filled with all the pig stuff... *trails on and on and on*...

To me, this is torture porn. Because I'm damn hungry, its late at night, the weather is cold AND I'M BLOGGING THESE STUFF!! ARRRGGHHHHH!!!!!!

Chee Cheong Fan. Or rice roll with loads of BBQ pork stuff in it. Ultimate.

AND HERE COMES THE HORROR!!

I was so stuff I felt like vomitting out my prawn dumpling when I saw all the needles.


We proceeded to Tan Tock Send Hospital to get Jab, and I was feeling both excited and scared, like how you feel if you do presentation in front of 1000 people.

I just wanted it to be over and done with. So we went through the normal boring but important procedures, AND.... IT BEGAN..........................

*STAB STAB STAB STAB* *JAB JAB JAB JAB JAB*

Okay joking, it is not that scary. I wanted to take video of myself getting jab, So when she started taking out the needle I was like:



Me:"WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Nurse:" OKAY! =) Now take deep breathe, relax this will be really quick~ *mutter mutter mutter"

Me:"NO WAIT I MY CAM-"

AND THE NEEDLE WENT IN.....................................................

This was how I looked when she slowly jabbed the needle in ----> =.=

And this was happening in my head " F!@# F !@$% FU*#! HOLY @*(!&#@!!!"


I didn't even get to the end of my internal dialogue "OH MY G-" And the needle was out. See, fast and pain free.

So my friends, if you want to live a good healthy life till 2012, please go get your H1N1 jab!!

End of my muscles.

****************************

CHRISTMAS!!! COMING SOON!!

My mum and bro are online shoppers all the way, because most of the guy shirts in Singapore all look the same and well, it's much cheaper online anyway.

Lately OPI had a spree, so my mum ordered some. I think nail art is really fun to do, so I'm practicing my left hand.

Actually, I'm not bad in my left hand because you know why?

I KEPT THINKING THAT MY RIGHT HAND WOULD BREAK DURING O'LEVELS, SO I HAD TO LEARN TO WRITE USING MY LEFT HAND SO FOR BACK-UP

smart right. HAHAHAHAHAHHA!!!


I know it says fall colours, but it really looks like red and blue if you paint it. Anyway, I'm gonna be busy soon with Christmas decors! Can't wait!

*************************

FILIPINO DISH!

ADOBO CHICKEN!


After eating the same old dish, and I think my maid was also sick of cooking the same old dish, she decided to save our food souls and cook us...........

ADOBO! Its like a Filipino chicken dish with potatoes and chicken with vinegar and soya sauce. The potato totally absorbed all the good essence. Heaven~!!


Torture porn again at this time of night. Lontong. Shall not linger in case I lick my computer screen.

*******************

COFFEE CLUB

*Yan lin you should work in coffee club since you like it so much*

NO WAY. Are you crazy?! I like eating there, not serving there while I see people eating the awesome food that I wanna eat!

Fruit Tiramisu? I think that was what it was called. The fruits were sweet, amazingly. The cake was frozen and super cold, so when you eat it, it melts in your mouth.

Like always, kudos to Coffee club for their great food presentation!


It was a really hot Sunday afternoon, but I didn't want to have anything like Vanilla latte. Those with super loads of cream and milk. UGH!

So I had PASSION FRUIT ICED TEA! With vanilla ice cream on top, and that was super bonus. Because not only do you get a nice refreshing tea, YOU GET ICE CREAM TOO!!

******************

THE REST OF THE WEEK


I know I was suppose to do my header, but I can't think of a good colour theme and of course I have to upload my picture. My html coding is all wrong in the first place, so that is gonna take some time.

Plus we have assignments to finish. BUT! HARDWORK WILL BE PAID OFF! Because yes, it is confirm, I will be sailing off on the 14th.

Yes, sailing this time, not flying LOL. Will blog about it nearer to the date. SO anyway just stories of my week.



JuNK FooD! HAHAHAH! I lOvE JUNK FOOD!

This morning the class met up to watch 2012. Yes, those suckers did not manage to watch it the other time, Hehehe...heh. heh.. hur.. hur!

So we had Burger King for lunch before watching the show at vivocity. The seats were uncomfortable but OH WELL.

GO WATCH 2012.

I love the effects and everything, it seems so real. Makes you think what you would do in 2012.

Well, good luck with your assignments. And MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!!!!! HAHAHAHH!!
