Vic’s birthday surprise!

On 17th MArch, which is one day before vic’s birthday, we happy plants gave our dear only-6-years-old potato a surprise!

So the plan is like this… Cause we always play badminton on thursdays, so we made it like just another badminton outing. aloe, ah ma and carrot will say that they are not coming (but in fact they are coming), while ginger, ah bu and i will still be going.

Ah bu and i will still meet vic at jp like usual, then we go jw stadium like usual again, and meet ginger there straight (still) like usual.

Basically, we are trying to make everything “like usual”, if not she will suspect ma~

Aloe, yx and ah ma on the other hand, met earlier at jp to buy the cake and went to stadium before we reach. They will book the court and hide somewhere near the court so that when we come, they will spring a surprise on vic!

Get it get it????

However, the surprise was pretty much a failure because our blur aloe actually sms-ed something like “when you guys reach sms me” to vic, when it is supposed to be sent to me (oh my, when will people stop mixing us up? D=) and when she is “not coming”!

Lol~ And vic went around showing ah bu and i the sms! i was sooo shocked when i see the sms! i had no idea how to react! Then i just keep saying aloe must have something wrong up there =pp

Then when we are walking to the stadium, i am supposed to sms aloe where we are. while sms-ing i was so like, nervous?? When vic came to me and asked what i am doing, i totally got a shock! My heart beats like crazy then! If i didn’t guess wrongly, i think my face turned red… It always do when my heart beats a little faster…

Oh my, i am such a bad liar! d=

Ok, enough of words! time for pictures!! =d

As our dear carrot needs to go soon, we decided to quickly just take a group photo! =D

Poly

My hands are itchy to write a blog post but yet I feel a little lazy so this post will be just a short post consisting of random thoughts regarding poly…

Ok, so poly started like two days ago…

The difference in poly and secondary school is actually not that big. Just classes are now called lectures (and there may be other classes joining for the lesson), homeworks are now called tutorials (I feel VERY cheated for this!) and you can wear your home clothes??

Oh, not forgetting that you have to travel from classes to classes instead of sitting happily on your seat and slacking while waiting for the next teacher to come… What’s more, sp is like so freaking big and NOT every building have lift. So there are a lot more walking and climbing of stairs in poly as compared to secondary…

Let’s not forgetting having to figure our way to our classrooms too… I am SUPER grateful for the map our personal tutor (like form teacher. I seriously have no idea why they call them “personal” tutor when the whole damn class is sharing the same person) printed for us!

Anyway, my anti-social problem seems to be having a bigger effect on me in poly as compared to in seconday. Somehow after orientation, I think that maybe I am more than quiet…

It’s like I am the quietest in my class, and it’s filled with people I don’t know in the beginning… I always thought that people like, becomes more sociable and open in poly as compared to secondary. But it seems like I am the opposite. I sort of becomes even more conserved, I think I talk like maximum 10 lines to a classmate, and I don’t know why…

At least I do take the initiative to approach people and start making friends in primary and secondary school (according to zhenqi who said I actually approached her! Wow, I am amazed by myself actually…). Looks like my anti-socialness grows with age. Awesome.

Sometimes I really wish to like, just talk more, be as crazy and talkative I am with plants, but I just can’t. Something wrong with me??? I think I can enrol into an autism school already.

Ok, maybe not.

Ohohoh! Another difference! Poly usually do not have textbooks, we have super thick lecture notes instead! Ahaha! Actually it’s good in a sense, cause they are still thinner than normal tb, and are definitely cheaper!

And studying in poly is like super ex! Need this need that, and all so ex! x.x

Also, I don’t understand why some girls can bring like sling bags or those really small/cannot withstand weight bags to school! The weight of the lecture notes are enough for me to stick to my super-dirty-and-used-since-sec-3 bag! And what if you need to bring lappy? Can die from the weight man! What’s more, YOU HAVE TO CARRY ALL THAT WEIGHT AND GO FROM ONE CLASS TO ANOTHER FOR THE WHOLE DAY!

Ohohohoh! Speaking of whole day, juniors, be SUPER glad that you dismiss at 1.30pm. To be able to go home at 1.30 is like a luxury to us! Out of 5 days, 3 days can only go home at 5/6pm. And lessons start at 8am/9am. Still have to wake up that early. Damn it!

Okok, this is getting too long! I still have tutorial to do! Oh gosh!

BYE!!

New Hair!

Hi people!

Didn’t update my blog for close to two weeks already! I am feeling super lazy recently…

So, today, sugarcane is gonna blog about her new haircut, and hairdye, on 6th april, which is actually last wednesday! =D

I dyed my hair in the morning, so hair dye first!

Before I start, let me flood you with my “before” pictures. Don’t worry, there won’t be much of my face… Mostly my hair.

And don’t expect lots of word, I am still feeling lazy…

DSC06192DSC06197DSC06201

Can’t really capture the colour well… Oh well!

DSC06219DSC06220

Couldn’t find my mum’s protective covering which I used in my last hair dye, so I had to use newspapers as a replacement… That explains my sad face… D=

And in case you find my eyes weird, it’s because my damn right eye was SWOLLEN that day… =.= That made my already small eyes even smaller. Thanks ah!

DSC06229

Liese bubble hairdye in sweet pink! This bottle of dye has been sitting in my house since cny eve man!

DSC06208DSC06207DSC06209DSC06210DSC06211

While mixing the dye….

DSC06212

Shake shake shake~

DSC06215DSC06216DSC06217

Putting the cap, which is like the magical thing that actually leads to the foamy structure of the dye!

DSC06221DSC06222DSC06223

Putting on the gloves… If not your hands will have the same colour as your hair… x.x

DSC06224

Was trying out the camera’s timer… I wonder why it keeps focusing on the wrong things that day…

DSC06226

Ahaha! It looks kinda gross… =p

DSC06227

The mess…

This table like become the “hairdye” table for me already! Both times I used this table and even when I help yx dye her hair!

And…

DSC06231

TA-DA! Ok, I know, I look damn weird… But this is like the only dyed-but-haven’t-cut picture I have… D=

After dying, ah ma suggested that we go cut our hair after her polyclinic appointment! Soo, being the forever on sugarcane (k, not really…), I agreed! =DDD

Went to this trusted salon of hers near her neighbourhood to get our haircut! I initially had a little communication problem with the guy but I am glad he took the initiative to like, double confirm what I want by showing me some pictures before cutting. *phew*

He initially thought I want, like front short back long or back short front long, I can’t remember exactly. Heng he verified with me, cause I just wanted it to be the same length. Maybe sounds a bit mushroom, but it’s safest!

And he was like a bit sad when I refuse to cut my fringe. I think he thinks it’s better if I cut bangs, and he was like “你真的不要剪啊?” Ahahaha~

He was quite good la, he helped me to blow my hair to make it curl inwards! Without me requesting or even mentioning about it! =DDDDDD This part I super happy about it!

Okok, enough about it! Now it’s time for me to flood you (once again) with the “after” pictures! I looked weird still (I think I looked weird the whole day thanks to my eyes…), but you can’t deny that my hair is cute! =p

DSC06235DSC06248DSC06252

The camera prefers to focus on the damn windows than my face, like what aloe said in fb… DDD=

Damn you, camera! So much for dslr… =.=

Baohui’s birthday surprise!

On 14th March (8 days after baohui’s birthday), we plants (except laopo) planned to give our oldest plant a birthday surprise!

So, on the previous night, we lied to ah bu that we will have badminton on monday (14th), so that she will not expect this.

Our plan is to surprise her at her house before 1pm (the time we set to meet at jp for “badminton”)

We met at around 11.45am at jp to buy the birthday cake and candles!  Had to round around to find the candles because polar only gave us like one candle, and our plan is to make the cake look like….

14032011181

THIS!

Went to a few places and found the candles at this Japan zha-pe-lang shop. Damn cheap, 20+ for like 60cents, ahaha.

After buying the candles, we made our way to ah bu’s house!

Identified her house and went one storey lower to prepare.

14032011182

The view of our target at where we prepare! The good thing is her house is rather near the staircase! =p

We then proceeded on to stick the candles, which are quite a lot! Ahaha!

14032011183

Paparazzi aloe while we are busy sticking the candles! You see, her weapon on stand by!

Then, we lighted the candle.

14032011184

14032011185

It was actually rather difficult to light the candles because of the number and the wind! Ah ma scorched herself, if I didn’t remember wrongly…

AND YOU SEE PAPARAZZI GINGER AT THE BACK!

While ah ma, aloe and vic are busy with the candles and zhenqi busy with taking pictures, I noticed something… (did you realise that someone is missing?)

14032011186

Yes! It’s our carrot! Lol~ I wonder what she is doing…

Ok, back to candles.

14032011187

By this time, (I think) zhenqi has already went up to prepare to knock on baohui’s door!

When the candles are all lighted, we went up to hide.

14032011188

I think none of us expected the fire to be THIS big! Guess we know why the candles are cheap…

14032011189

The view from where I hid.

As we are unable to see what is happening (need to hide), and due to a small miscommunication, there was a slight delay after baohui opened the door.

Initially, we are thinking of like, once baohui opens the door, we will present her the cake and sing her happy birthday song! But because ah ma thought aloe will signal to her whether it’s baohui who opened the door and aloe did not, so, lol.

14032011190

Failed attempt to capture ah bu’s surprised face! D=

And this is the only picture I have of the surprise part! DAMN IT!

After that, ah bu opened the door to let us in! =D

14032011191

Because I failed to capture her surprised face, I decided to compensate for that, by taking LOTS of her unglam photos! =D

14032011192

The cake on her coffee table!

Ai yo, ah bu, why your legs so wide open??? =x

14032011193

The cake, after the candles were blown…

Doraemon so poor thing, face covered by wax!

1403201118114032011193

Before and After…. Huge difference!

14032011195

And this is the candles after we “plucked” them out…

The wax is super… erm… cheap and lousy?

14032011194

Baohui: “不要拍我,我会害臊的!”

14032011196

Luckily Doraemon’s face is merely COVERED by wax. We were rather surprised that it’s not disfigured, lol~

14032011197

Baohui, all ready to cut her birthday cake!

Lol, she damn scary la, holding her knife like that! Some more where got people use 菜刀 to cut cake one?! Ahaha!

Oh, and she looks like she cut ah ma’s hand in this picture! =p

14032011198

14032011199

Slowly peeling the outer coverings of the cake…

14032011200

Ah ma spotted some wax on the cake and decided to be kind and help baohui remove them!

But…

14032011201

This is baohui’s expression while ah ma helps her!! Ahahaha~               

                                                                                                  Cake cutting ceremony….

14032011202

Baohui: “I scared….”

14032011203

Baohui: “Slowly does it….”

14032011204

And the poor doraemon literally sinked into the cake!!!

And ah bao’s reaction?

14032011205

Apparently she is very happy about it. =p

14032011206

Cut the cake into 8 slices. I can never get over how big happy plants is. =D

14032011207

The green tea ah bao’s mum poured for us! The cup is so unique!

14032011208

Tried the “legendary” kimchi, which ah bao did at her cooking lesson!

It’s… Not nice…

To me la, I just don’t like it. I tried the kimchi at the korean stall near my house, and the verdict remains. I guess I generally do not like kimchi…

But still, ah bu’s kimchi is not nice! =p

14032011209

Toppled cake! Lol, our plan initially was to buy a small cake for ah bu to enjoy on her own. But she decided to like let us have a slice each! Lol~

We were so pai seh when we eat the cake. Cause it’s supposed to be ah bu’s. Hers alone…

14032011210

Hehe, a picture of a family photo in ah bao’s house!

Spot ah bao! (hint: She’s the only girl in the family!)

After that, we left ah bao’s house and walked to jp for neoprints! While walking…

1403201121114032011212

The honeys refused to run to catch the traffic light, so they had to wait for another round! But I think they are very happy to do so la, 二人世界 for them, ahaha!

Gosh, the second photo look like as if they are kissing… =x

While waiting for zhenqi to change coins inside the neoprint machine…

14032011213

14032011214

14032011215

14032011216

14032011217

You see! Every plants love playing to ah bu’s hair! WAHAHAHA!

14032011218

Sexy ah, ah bu! =p

Lol, tell you something really funny! I took this picture through the machine’s camera/screen. Ah bu saw it and tried to stop me by covering my phone. But the problem is, she is covering the front of my phone, not my phone camera, and definitely not the machine’s camera! Ahahaha!

14032011219

While zhenqi and yx are editing the photos…

Lol, looks like some plants love to play with ah bao’s ears too! =p

14032011220

14032011221

14032011222

Hehe, waiting for the neoprints to come out!

14032011223

And here they are! =D

After that, we went to kopitiam to have our lunch!

14032011224

Ah bu, ah wan and ah qi ordered this breakfast set that comes with the half-boiled egg.

Ah bu and ah wan damn funny! They like first time eat half-boiled egg! Lol, they like so blur, don’t know what to do with the egg! Ahahaha~

14032011225

Anyway, kopitiam’s half-boiled eggs also quite fail de lor. Just look at ah bu’s eggs above, like more than 70% cooked already!

14032011227

Cleaning auntie ah wan stacking all the plates, cups etc into one tray! Lol~

K la, give you credits for being considerate! =p

After the lunch, ah wan, ah vic, ah ma, ah xiang, ah bu and I took bus back to hua yi to collect their SGC.

I actually collected already, but since hua yi is within walking distance from my house, I decided to join them!

While ah bu is waiting for Mdm Keh, we met Mr Lim and crapped a lot with him. Mr Leow joined in the fun too, ahahaha!

And, that’s all for the day!

I shall end the post with the pictures of the neoprints I koped from ah qi’s blog! =D
