Happy Birthday Dear~~

Happy Birthday Dear!!! This is where i brought her to for dinner on Wednesday. Glad that she enjoyed herself. The food is both fresh and delicious. So do take note of this place, Cafebiz at Traders Hotel. I am sure you won't miss the restaurant, right at the entrance of the hotel. I guess a picture says a thousand words, so sit back and enjoy the feast :)

whoa whoa ~~

Riding on SBS is no longer a journey, i would says its now an experience! Look at what they have come up with!!! And yes you have not seen wrongly, those are pictures on the seats i took on a SBS bus this afternoon.

The second picture is round seats where u can seat comfortably with yr own personal space. On your left was the most interesting one, two seats facing the window which has a little table and picture of a man with many alcohol bottles behind him(top), the feel of a bar. Just wonder if anyone will sit facing the window with a row of passengers behind yout back. Seemed weird but i guess i might if i am really tired that day:)

The interior of the bus was like those of the mrt where everyone faces each other. It was a delighful sight. Whats more, all the seats are of white leather making it look classy and pure. I certainly wouldn't mind taking the bus more often if i see more of these sights :)

rain~~

Today, i was caught in the rain with yl and viv on our way to the arts faculty. So we decided to sit at the bus stop for a while. It has been a long time since i last look at the rain. Zooming past us were buses, taxis, vans, lorries and cars. Suddenly i came to relate the vehicles with humans and our lives.


Like the vehicles,


some lives are fast-paced, while others are slow


some are small, while others are big


some are tall, while others are short


some are black, while others are white


some are beautiful, while others are not so beautiful


some are quiet, while others are noisy


some are gentle, while others are rough





and the lists juz goes on ...





Life can often get mundane, thus i must strive to be the fastest, most quiet, beautiful and gentle big car :)

Happy Birthday~~

Friday was my actual birthday but i actually spend the whole day in school and even ate lunch alone! However, what came later in the night were pleasant surprises!

Dear eil came to my school and waited for me outside my lecture theatre which ended around 2045. I was really shocked as i had not brought her to my school previously and there was no way she could make her way up the complicated school to my lecture theatre. Alas i knew the answer, she had contacted Yiling without my knowledge who guided her around my school.

If that surprise was not enough, she also bought my favourite cheese cake from secret recipe which we eventually ate at SIM! I was really so glad that my birthday ended on a high note. All credits to my dear :)

The last bit on my celebration was by village just hours ago. It was a combined celebration for dear and i since our birthdays are only days apart. We went to Manhattan Fish Market at PS. I had the seafood platter and i must say that it is quite similar to Fish & Co's. However, i personally feel that Fish & Co's food is slightly more tasty though the price is a little steeper. Don't they always say, you pay for what you get :)

Special thanks to my dear~~

Dear eil celebrated my birthday for me today, 1 day early of my actual birthday as i have lesson tomorrow night. I must say i was delighted with how the day had gone by, a simple yet fruitful one. It dosen't really matter where you go, it is who you are with that is most important.

We went KTV and i really sang my heart out! It was followed by a great dining experience at Rios Brazilian Restaurant. Ironically, we did not make a reservation, yet it seemed that we had booked the entire restaurant. The food was delicious and the waiters very polite and friendly.I totally enjoyed myself there and would recommend you to try it out. Thanks dear once again for the celebration :)

Let me tell you a story now. Dear and i were heading home on the MRT after dinner. Sitting behind the train driver was a lady in black, let's call her Mdm Black. The door seperated where Black and I seated. Another Indian man, back facing us, carrying a backpack stood in front of dear and i, let's call him Muthusammi. It was pouring heavily outside, so an insect which looked like a warpse to me(so let me call it warpsy), probably wanted to seek shelter, thus clinged onto Sammi's bag.

Dear has a real eagle eye and was first to spot Warpsy. She was so terrified, she covered herself with her jacket throughout the journey till she reached AMK. As she was alighing, i was afraid that Sammi's hard day at work might finally be taking a toll on him and he will want to take over dear's seat. Fortunately, an auntie saviour, i shall call her, saved me from the scare.

When the train reached Yio Chu Kang, Warpsy finally could not take the constant movement of Sammi anymore and decided to fly around to find a better spot. It took Warpsy a long time, catching the attention of many in the process before deciding to stop right above Mdm Black.

I simply love people watching. Her eyes were glued to Warpsy from then on while i took constant glances at Warpsy and Mdm Black to make sure the former does not change its mind and observe the worried latter until she and i both alighted at Woodlands :)

Grrr..

It was a real nerve wrecking morning. I was sitting on the bus practising what i might be asked to say to later.

Just yesterday, Viviane , who took an earlier class of Professional Communication on Monday for the first time, had told me how strict her tutor was, asking the students to go up one after another to make a speech on a random topic and expecting them to actively participate in class. As my first Prof Com class was just before her 2nd lesson at the same tutorial classroom, she reckond we might be having the same lecturer and warned me to be careful and told me the various topics her tutor set for the class.

Here i was sitting on the bus, listening to my mp3 while the various topics kept going through my mind. At some point of the time, i reassured myself that nothing was going to happen, afterall it was just going to be a 5 min speech. Everytime i tried to stop, it will automatically come back again. I just could not contain myself.

Just as i was about to reach school, the butterflies in my stomach suddenly transformed into some form of pain. Fortunately, i was early for class. I quickly walked to the nearest toilet to settle myself.

Time to go to class! I finally heaved a great sigh of relief when i realised that my tutor was a cucasian man in his 40s. It was completely different from the loud, strict and fearful head-of- english department tutor that Viviane mentioned. I somewhat like the way he teaches, clear and precise. I am going to enjoy my time with him :)

Welcome ~~

Good day to everyone. This is the opening ceremony of my blog. Firstly I think i need to explain why i am only doing this now. Well, i used to think that sharing my life on a blogspot is meaningless, that is I will only attract unwanted attentions. However, all these had an abrupt change after attending this first year module of mine, Entrepreneur Marketing.

I must say that the lecturer is a great one, with many years of experience in this field. I don't want to go in-depth but basically, he says that blogging is a good way to market ourselves. This is what I plan to do, market myself to my audience. I believe this is also a good means to keep in touch with my friends and let them know about my life.

To kick start what i am going to say, let me first orientate you to why i chose the name of my blog. I believe many of my close friends will know why I use babyBoon. The reason is simple. I always feel tired at say ten in the night and will even doze off halfway into a conversation with a group of friends. Overtime, my friends came up with this name for me. As the saying always goes, the rest is history.

Hope you enjoy my entry and continue to visit me :)
