BACK FROM CAMP!

BACK FROM CAMP!

I will be updating soon about my camp, which was awesome btw, because I achieved many things and there were nice people a.k.a cute guys there.

But I'm dead lazy, like I rolled around my bed from 10am to 4pm today, so feeling really sick, and my stomach is in chaos. SIGH!

I HAVE SOOO MANY THINGS TO UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ROARR!!

Cycling at Pulau Ubin

THE STORY OF 4 FRENS AND UBIN!

Once upon a time... in the time and year where iphone had an ice cream game and fat people were revered highly upon....

THERE WERE FOUR GOOD FRIENDS....

There was to be an outing, a small one though, because in this friggin' land, there were horrible stuff such as WORK and INDUSTRIAL ATTACHMENT.

So out of 17, only 4 were thus able to make it. So then came the plan on what to do?

They have been to shopping, movie, drinking, pubbing, hanging out late sitting on grass patches, and singing to the moon and chalets. So what else could they do?

They decided to go UBIN to CYCLE!

But these 4 friends had one thing in mind, and that was to find the beautiful quarry that they have heard but not seen. So they set off on their $8 bikes (sigh.... ) and paddled off to the forest.
They couldn't find a wild boar, neither did they see an elephant, and most conversation was restricted to

"OI HURRY UP LEH!"

"CAREFUL AH, DITCH!"

"HAHAHAH! WTH..."

or

"DID THEY GET LOST?"

It was a girl name Wan Ling and a another awesomewonderfulgreat HAHAH girl, name LYL who lead the way.

They didn't take the path that was meant to be trodden on, but instead, took the path that was earthly, dangerous, and leads to gawd knows where.

So they set off into the mysterious forest, and soon, chance upon the wonderful sea! But it wasn't what they were finding for, so they paddled on.

And reached a place called Chek Jawa Wetlands! Where they saw this amazing tower, and decided to climb it!

They reached the top and documented their achievements. All the weariness was seen in their face, but as they turned, they saw AN EAGLE SOARING!

(that was so freaking far my camera just caught it as a dot, go to my album navigation at the side to see)

After much rest, sun was sleepy, and thus ready to rest, while the bicycle ladies expected them to return their mounts in an hours time.

In a frenzy from being lost in time, they still strolled slowly to their bikes. The Journey was tiring, their legs were aching.

The single road up was horrible. The road was rough, with stones jutting out, really to split open their skulls, and tree branches, creeping up to topple them off!

Some almost fell, some dismounted and pushed the bikes, and some struggled up the steep slopes.

LYL was in the lead, so she pushed her way up the slope! Her muscles (my story so I get to put MUSCLES HAHAH) screamed in protest. She staggered up, barely even able to breathe normally.

Turning to her right, an astonishing sigh greeted her, and for a moment, her heart missed a beat. She couldn't believe what she saw.

In excitement she shouts at Wan Ling to get her @ss, I mean, herself, up here. But something was wrong. Terribly wrong. Sarah and Justin were no where to be found.

Worry lined both their faces as they waited, for some sound. It shouldn't take this long for them to appear. "Any time now..." LYL thought.

BUT NO SOUND FROM THEM.

In a panic, she shouted to Wan Ling, who had froze at the bottom slope. Both waited, and considered paddling back to see if an accident has occurred.

But suddenly, BOTH APPEARED! safe and sound! LYL had her fears diminish, and now, only excitement flooded her back. She beckoned them to hurry, grinning from ear to ear!

When 3 of them arrived to where she was standing, they look to the right... and this was what they saw...

THE QUARRY

The blue was so unreal, and they were all stun. Somehow, they thought all was lost when they couldn't find it, but they stumbled upon it! BY CHANCE!

However they couldn't linger long, for the bicycle lady was sure to strangle them with chains if they were late. So after a few quiet moments of admiring, they set off back to home base.


Later that night...
They gathered around, body aching and butt probably having another crack thanks to sitting on the bike for more than 3 hours.

And ordered a plate of GONG GONG and SAMBAL SOTONG!! HAHAH!!! Soon they all tucked in and ate everything till nothing is left but the sauce!

With filled stomachs and adventures found, they uninterestingly took a train back, talking all the way about everything under the big bright moon.

THE END.

PS: serious about the butt crack ok, I think I got 2 already.....

Angel Wine's gig

PRESENTING.. A PERFORMANCE FROM ANGEL WINE!!!

Which is of course, we proudly introduce, our friend Peter! Who plays bass for Angel Wine. It was a great night out, with great music, and cliche as this might sound, great friends to enjoy it with!

It felt refreshing after not seeing them for many many days! So we had pretty much alot of talk about and company to enjoy.The gig was held in the art house, which was new to me!

Heh, not to be bias or what, but some of the bands were literally singing... well... original lyrics which I just could not phantom, because they chose to blast the amplifier above vocal.

A.W's songs were refreshing after a bunch of mixed up blasting, and yes I guess I'm bias because I support A.W's music LOL!

The picture up there does no justice to the band, because there's another guitarist on the other side with the vocalist, but I couldn't get a good shot due to poor lighting =(

BUT BUT I got to see RACHEEEEEEEEELL!! *grabs rachel, twirls her around in a field of daisy sunflowers and drops her off the cliff*

THE END.

Melbourne Sdyney holiday!

HOLI~ HOLI~ HOLIDAAAAAAY!!!

Or more like visiting my brother who just settled down in Melbourne two weeks ago to study!

We took a freaking 7 hours journey to Melbourne on the AirBus380! Yes, the double Decker plane, but truthfully, it's just like sitting on any normal plane.

The service was good though, and guess what, THEY HAD TWILIGHT AND NEW MOON ON IT. As an in-flight movie. I was like the happiest fat kid in the sky.


However most of you would have heard my welcome to Melbourne was a disaster, and a few people who have heard of our arrival, teased us that maybe Melbourne hates us.

WHY MELBOURNE HATES ME:

1)Hailstorm a few hours after we arrived.

2)Major flooded and the university roof collapse. right after the hail storm.

3)continuous raining for the next 3 days of my stay

4)stopped raining and had fine weather on the day I left for Sydney

5)Before I left Melbourne, fell and sprain my ankle =(


This is my brother's view from his college dorm window. The courtyard, jeez it's so Hogwarts FEELING. ARGHHHH!! HAHAHAHAH!

*DORK DORK DORK*

My beef noodles, made by real Vietnamese. You see, in Singapore, it is diverse, but most of the time, its Singaporean-Korean, or Singaporean-Vietnamese.

And then there's the restaurant, although it says Thai food or Korean food, you can bet that the chefs are not Thai nor Korean. But when I got to Melbourne, it was quite different here

The Vietnamese really owns the whole cafe, even the waitress and all. The food was just damn awesome. Surprisingly, everyone tells me that Aussie food is horrible, but you know what......... IT IS NOT. BECAUSE IT IS SOOOO DARN AWESOME!! HAHAHAH!!


Turkish Delights BABEH! HAHAHAHAHHAH!! I admit, I heard about it in books and was excited to try when I laid my grubby hands on it. Chocolate coated Turkish delights!

After the first packet, the second, third, fourth and fifth went through in a breeze. I count myself highly addicted.

Maple trees by the road side! But I was hoping to visit Canada to see nicer ones. Had to repress the urge to lick the bark and see if it has maple syrup though.

I am a fan of maple syrup, and I think pancakes are just over rated without them =)


We met brother up for dinner the next day, and he brought as to LAYGON STREET for WESTERN FOOD!!

I love Melbourne, the food portions are HUGE! I hate sharing, but I just had to because it really was too large for me. Bro ordered the Aussie pizza, and I don't know what they put in it, but yea, I think you can see the picture in my photo album! hahah!

We passed by a candy store along the way and I bought some Humbugs! Like big huge sweets. Didn't take a picture, but I'm still finding a jar for my Humbugs T.T


Around the 4th day of the visit, we went to tour around Melbourne, free and easy. You know, just take a tram and ride around the city.

Yes, tram, like a train on roads. The best part was that if you forgot to bring your cash, you could just hope it to one of the tram doors and hitch a free ride back home. BUT, if you get caught, that's 500AUS for you!

Queen Victoria Market, where the shops are still really old school and stuff, but really nice! The best part was that the weather was cold, okay maybe not uncomfortable cold, but air-conditioned temp of 23 degrees.

No sweaty yucky body even after walking for an hour! WOO HOO! Plus the market smells nice, not fishy and smelly at all!

We visited one of the parks of Melbourne, and combined with the lovely weather and the season of Autumn, this is one amazing park.

The air was so fresh, I could just take a breathe in and maaaan, I'm like freed from all the black tar in my lungs. Black tar, uh, comes from exhaust right?

Ah heck LOL!

They call this the fairy tree, and the way the sun touches the leaves are amazing. The best part was that it was in the middle of nowhere.



WELCOME TO SYDNEY


Okay I'm lying on my stomach right now typing this I can just feel the blood clogging into my brains, so I can't type anything really good, but just descriptions!

QUESTIONS! "WHY ARE THE PICTURES?!"

Well, I'm not going to post up all the pictures I took, but they can be viewed in the album at your left, on the navigation bar.

LEFT HAND YOU DOO DOO!



Spastic face but not so spastic TORTILLA. Yea it feels like the first time you fall in love, that excited, feeling, that you are eating something so wonderful and yet you know it will never really coagulate into your fats.

I heart Tortilla, and my poor heart is breaking just thinking of eating the fried oily ones by CFK. Hope they don't sue....

HAH! DO YOU ACTUALLY THINK I WOULD LET YOU OFF WITHOUT SHOWING YOU THIS?!! MUAHAHAHHAHAH!!

I know, so cliche, but still *stands proudly*, I'll tell you a great ole truth ok?

I DIDN'T GO THERE. LOL! HAHAHAHAH!!

Yes I was sadly on the ferry going to the zoo, so I passed by this and decided to take a snap of Sydney's lovely Opera house.


The zoo could only be access through a ferry from the harbour, because it was on an island. Lucky zoo. I looked like something from JURASSIC PARK, and I wouldn't be surprise if a T-REX popped out to bite my ass =(


Gawd, I would kill humans literally if they put me in an enclosure without such a view. The animals were definitely living in a great home.

And the day before me and Mum arrived in Sydney, a baby elephant was born!!! And why was it so talked about?

Because apparently it was dying, and even the elephants mom gave up on it. But it survived, which is a miracle, it was stillborn after all.

But WOO HOOO!! I didn't get to see it, but oh well.


Have you watched Happy feet before? Do you know that big evil looking leopard seal? Yea, he looks exactly like this guy. This seal was as big as me, and I was willing to bet, that if I fell in, he would rip my small intestines out.

But I might be wrong, right? HUR, get it? Wrong, RIGHT?

Definitely not those tame sea lions you see in Sea World.


I have one picture in the album that I didn't post up. It was the same lioness in this picture, but she was licking her lips.

I never felt anymore than a Pork bun in front of her.

HEHEHEHE YANG MEH MEH. Just so reminded of that nickname of our Chinese teacher. WHAT?!! It's not exactly UNKNOWN that I'm not a fan of CHINESE.


the pictures says in all!

The night before our departure from Sydney, mum and I decided to get in over ours heads and order a large portion of sea food.

It's called, seafood platter for 2. HAHAH I know very unimaginative.

Well lemme tell you something, it wasn't a seafood patter for freaking 2, It was SEAFOOD PLATTER FOR 4 OKAY.

If you are wondering why my face has a more define shape, which CRUDE people would describe as FAT. You can blame it on this night LOL

Oh gawd, my dear prawns I could just suck you dry. Your fresh is sooo sweet and delicious and just looking at it is making me lick my screen...

Which would cause me excessive diarrhea the next day so nvm.

The last time I ate lobster was during a wedding. But I didn't really eat lobster, because the most I could taste were the freaking fruits.

So when confronted with a whole lobster to myself, the moment my mouth touched such awesome-ness, my soul lifted, and that was when LYL.....

Drifted away to heaven.

THE END.

PS:I miss you guys so much during my 10 days trip and sorry I didn't post the postcards hahah!!!

Ice creamery

I LOOOOVE YOU ICE CREAM

I'll eat you in the morning, afternoon, night and midnight! woo HOO!

Look at their HAPPY faces! hahahha!! And yes, we went for dinner and ice cream right before I left for Australia. Feels like some tradition for me, like before I left for Cambodia we had ice cream too LOL!

Anyway I didn't take any pictures while we ate dinner, my EXCUSE is that the food was so awesome I didn't realise it to till the end ARGH! Btw it's at Buger shack, coronation, near Adam's road food market.


A spongebob doodle I found on the table of Foodcourt 5 when I met the kids for basketball in the morning.

*PROUD MOMENT* DO YOU KNOW THAT I WATCHED Kdrama FROM 10PM till 7AM???

I know, I told everyone I literally met in that week. Plus I went to play Bball after that you know YOU KNOW?! HAhahA! I am AWESOME.

But I had to rest for a few days because of a headache.

Cya around guys!

It is time to revive this blog

THY BLOG SHALL BE RESURRECTED!!

.... and because I am too darn lazy to go redo my website. Hey, I have like 80 more years to live man, not going to waste my time re-doing a website.

So, I'm going to sleep now haahaha. Jet lag, or whatever they call it, because it's 11pm here in SG, but in Aussie, it's like 2am LOL! Yea, so I'm damn tired.

Yes people, I have the pictures, but you have to wait, and I promise you I will get them up and running by this week, before I leave for camp.

*Shudders* LYL going for camp, wow.

Alright, check back for more updates!

TASK #1

TASK #1 towards changing my life......

FAILED!!

ARRGGHHHHHHH!!!!! *depress*. Horrible as I imagined it to be. Water makes you bloated, and don't you feel like puking after drinking so much???!!!

Anyway, ta-daaa.. the amount of water I managed to drink yesterday. SIGH, nvm! DON'T GIVE UP LYL!!!!!!!!!!!! Today I shall fulfill my drinking of 8 cups of water!


So anyway, my next task, which will commence on Monday.... is... TO NOT EAT ANY MEAT. *dies*

QNS:"Why are you doing this Yan Lin????"

Ans:" Because.... Hahhahah.. I'm afraid of dying young =("



My painkillers =(

As some of you might have notice, or know, because I might have complained to you. My heel is giving me some major problems.

I went to see a doctor and he said I had build up fluids in my heel. That's why I feel like I'm stepping on knifes. So he gave me painkillers, and I have to do my own physiotherapy

It started like around November, and I didn't have time to go see a doctor, and because I thought I could bear it till it heals. But apparently, It's Jan 2010 and the pain is worsening till the point I limp at times.

And at that point of time, I felt very scared because I had ate alot of red meat during the month of dec, I hardly drank water because I was filling up with soda and I didn't give myself anough rest with all the chalets and assignments before and after.

Then I realised I was coming to 20 now and yea... if I keep torturing my body like this I'm going to die young and HELL NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAN LIN AIN'T GOING DOWN SO FASTT!!!

Thats why I will, for the next week, try and cut down on red meat and eat more *YUCK YUCK YUCK** Vegetables.


SARAH AH.... *CRIES*.. BERNICE AH... JOAANNNAAA AHHH!!! *CRIES* we are getting old already. twenties... twenties... twenties....

TASK #2 NO MEAT ON MONDAY!

start afresh

IT IS TIME TO CHANGE


Have you ever resented the thought that you are the same and not moving forward? I do. I've completed one obstacle in life, but that was last year. And ever since that time I have been so contented with what I have that I soon came to realise, that I'm not changing.

Maybe it is because I want to do so many things in my life, and I just put it off before... well even starting it. Like say, I promised myself to drink 8 glasses of water a day *failed*, spent within budget *failed*, draw something *failed*. Reason? It's a waste of time. No time. Tired.

My excitement in life? Going out. Friends. Events. Blah blah. school.

SO! I'm going to try this. I am going to state what I'm going to do tmr, and at the end of the day, see how much a promise I make.

I'm going to fulfill each promise tasked as planned! I don't know, maybe it will help save me from drowning in my mundane life. Maybe it won't change me at all, maybe I will discover something?

Who knows? Well then, the task tmr is....

*DRINK 8 GLASSES OF WATER.*

*ROAR!!!!!!!* IT'S THE YEAR OF THE TIGER!!!! *stun silence*

*ROAR!!!!!!!* IT'S THE YEAR OF THE TIGER!!!! *stun silence*


HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAH!! stupid lame title but yea, I just felt like saying that. Firstly, NO DOO DOOS, I'm born in the year of the horse.

But I hate Veggies...

I can't run for nuts...

I don't have Stamina...

And I'm lazy.

But hey, I do eat like a horse =) HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAH!! Ok I should stop talking about myself, getting more depress and growing more mushrooms in my sad corner.

SO ANYWAY! WOO HOO!! Who doesn't love Tigers. I wish I had one as my pet, but then again people will start flaming me for abuse blah blah blah..... But... what an idea.

Grandpa said the Tiger would just see me as a slab of meat and probably eat me in time to come. =(

I decided to make myself feel better by finding a picture that represented me. So I went yahoo and typed "hardworking horses". And.. well, this is what I got...

CSK'S 20th Birthday!

CSK'S 20th Birthday!

Last December, after organizing Sarah's Bday, CSK asked me to help planned his.

I know, damn old already HAHAHAHHAHA!!! So anyway, Sarah Intro-ed us this restaurant called Esmirda, which is at Orchard Hotel.

I felt that 20th birthday should be awesome too. And plus I was subjected to this fella's fat jokes for 5 years, so yea, gotta make it good.

It wasn't much actually, because at that point of time I had so much things in my hand, so Sarah helped out in the planning. I wish I could do more, but I didn't have enough time and well...

Money.

But enough about it! More about the place!

Wan Ling Loves Yan Lin HAHAHAHAHAHH! So well, as you notice, HOW COME NO FOOD PICTURES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HUH YANLIN????

Well, I kinda.... brought my Camera, and an extra battery....

BUT I FORGOT TO INSERT THE MEMORY CARD HAHAHAHAHHAHA!!!

Can hear Kun's string of vulgarities. HEY! I'm sad too ok. BUT how did I manage to get this pics? Well, it was my camera's awesome internal memory that only allows 5 pictures =(

I still love Niki =)

Around 9pm, they stopped us from eating (damn...) and they started this funky country music. Next thing I know, WE WERE SMASHING PLATES! HAHAHAH!!! Yes, and it felt damn good.

They said it's some German tradition or something. Gosh it was fun. The sad part was, I threw mine but it didn't smash. HAIZ!

Tradtional boucer pic. It's kinda to see over the years how fat we have become.

HAHA! The black crew. Ok, dark colour crew. Should have taken a group picture though! dang.

I had great food, felt like throwing a plate on a CERTAIN SOMEONE, and the movie "It's Complicated" is nice. Go watch.

Thats all for now!

HAPPY NEW YEAR

HAPPY NEW YEAR!


Omg Yea I know it is like damn lag. Because during the holidays I had so many assignments to finish that it didn't feel like a Happy New Year.

So I decided to officially start my New Year on, well, the Chinese New year date. That is when my daddy O will be back and my assignments all done!!

Feb is gonna be a bittersweet month for me. Sweet because I will be travelling AGAIN, and this time out of my comfort zone of 2 hr radius *yea my friends are always joking that I can only travel 2hrs away from SG*

This time I will be at Melbourne for 1 week to help my bro settle down, and maybe see if anyone wants to travel with me to Bangkok, or Langkawi! So that's about all, and keep watching this space for something new!

Next I will try to post up videos because I just found one pile of video in my hard drive *heh heh heh*

Hungry

I shouldn't do this, But I can't help it. HAHAHAHAH!!!


Alright! Life is back to normal and I finally have the mood to blog. I don't really know what to type, because most of the time, I just wanna eat.

Sadly I haven't been visiting places to eat, so the blog is pretty much dead. Esepcially since work is piling up ALOT.

But I'm gonna keep pumping blood into it once in awhile, or more like posts. Just killing Rachel by showing her this laksa pic, which is not taken by me duh hahhaha.
