i hear your calls dudettes.... haha. it's time for updates again!! (cue: cheer!) lol!
let's see...on national day, we went out for our mini celebration with dear ol' granny. met up with dumbo (our fam's brand new chauffeur. haha)and mr jason at taka and went for mini tea at breeks. the adults were tucked comfortably in a corner while the four of us were left to fend for ourselves. hmph. but nothing can stop the legendary us... when stuck in boredom, just flash out the cells! and we happily entertained ourselves in the following hour or so..
trying hard to squeeze into the picture..haha.

the legendary us!!
after tea, we headed to this nice lil restaurant which is located very ulu-ly in a corner of chinatown. though so, the food was gooooooooood! managed to get a group shot there.
it was a good day out with part of the family!!
********************************************************************************************* sch has started yet again...this is the second last time that i can say that phrase out loud... cos 2 sems later, i'll be out of fairytale land and will be stepping into the harsh and brutal real world where menaces lurk. just the mere thought of it is repulsive enough.. let's not go there yet...
so sch started and we headed down to earl swensen at vivo to celebrate darling adel and sunshine sayang asilah's birthdays! i must say it was good recommendation by dear sherlin who could jolly well apply to be the promoter for their salad bar buffet! the salad was so satisfying that i went down the following week with sis and big hairy monster (aka big low)for dinner.
welcome to my humble kitchen. yeah right. i wish. haha. my sneaky sis snapped a shot of greedy me helping myself to the salad bar.
************************************************************************************** in an attempt to regain my chef's title, i volunteered to make dinner tonight. now as all of us know, we need to go marketing to get the ingredients. so off i went, armed with a reusable bag (live earth!), trotting my way to the ntuc nearby. i've got the recipes ready, shopping list ready..all seemed perfectly planned when suddenly (insert dramatic sound!) my stupid OP slippers failed on me and refused to hold its grip onto the slippery afterrain-floor. so off i went, flying slightly into the air (yes, imagine the scenario) and landed flat on my flat butt (pun intended). to make things worse, there was this guy (whom i suspect is the doctor at the clinic nearby) who walked past. he did turn and asked if i was ok..but i managed to catch a stupid grin on the face.. if i could, i would personally wipe that grin off his face! but i couldn't...for i was too embarrassed for words! i could just die from embarrassment at that moment.. T_T
enough of the embarrassing stuff.. where was i..... oh yes, cooking.
i was all busy making dinner when sneaky sis took a pic of me with disheveled hair at work. i never knew i look like this when im transformed into chef claryce.
add in the sauce....
then stir stir stir!

************************************************************************************************* i've been tutoring for about 2 years now.. i've snapped pics of my students but never posted on my blog before... as to date, i've had a total of 10 students. i'm no 'miss nice' to students...just ask those who've had to endure my rantings and scoldings during lessons. hahaha! like the chinese sayang goes: a strict teacher produces good students!
here are 3 shots i took when they were working hard during lesson.. names have been modified to protect their identities. hahahaha!
