NOT The Best of Both Worlds

Angeline is tempted to go to Taiwan and Korea this year. Ck will most probably faint at the thought of it. Angeline is still thinking which country to choose. Is it really too much to go to two countries in 1 year?

Angeline shall make a wise choice to avoid Ck's unhappiness.

P/S: Angeline shall try to test water.
P/P/S: It failed miserably.

5771

For friends who know Angeline well enough, you will have known that 5771 is the car plate of Angeline's car. Thanks to 5771, Angeline and her gamily went to Fu Man Lou at Hotal Royal @ Queens for a hearty dinner (completed with KTV session).

The dishes that were served were superb but Angeline didn't take any photographs of the food because she was sharing a table with her aunties and uncles. Imagine their shock when they see Angeline taking photographs of every dish that was served to the table. Therefore, it wasn't really Angeline's fault at all.

A good meal to reward Angeline for a week of hard work and to encourage Angeline to continue working after dinner. This is LIFE!

P/S: The seafood soup was FANTASTIC!
P/P/S: Angeline likes the first photograph the best.
P/P/P/S: This entry is typed at 5.00am.

Overdosed with Caffeine

Angeline is seriously overdosed with caffeine. To kick start her day, she will drown herself in one big mug of Cafe Latte. During lunch, she can't resist the temptation of drinking a Iced Latte. After dinner, she loves to drink 'kopi' with Ck at the Wangs Cafe. In a day, Angeline will have at least 3 cups of beverages that contain caffeine. Is that a little bit too much?

Naturally, Angeline definitely won't reject SD's offer to have coffee at Gloria Jean's after dinner. Angeline should really start reducing her intake of caffeine. Oh well! But the question is, "How can you not order coffee when you are meeting a friend to chit chat?" You don't really expect Angeline to order a cup of hot milk right?

P/S: Coffee at Gloria Jean's was just 'coffee'.
P/P/S: Angeline still prefer the coffee from Coffee Bean.
P/P/P/S: Angeline and SD went to Imperial Treasures for dinner.

Happiness

Angeline is happy.

The Importance of Speaking Good English

Example 1

Angeline was literally tickled by one of her children last Tuesday.

It happened during her Circle Time in school. She was engaged in a discussion about their favourite toy with the children when she suddenly heard a "NO LA". As Ms Angeline is strongly against the children using Singlish in her class, she immediately responded, "NO 'LA'."

Just at that instance, another child called out, "Ms Angeline, you said 'LA'. Ms Angeline did not know whether to laugh or to cry at that child's enthusiasm of speaking good English. Thus, Ms Angeline tried to explain that she was trying to tell the friend not to use the 'LA'. However, that child did not look very convinced. Maybe Ms Angeline should have said, "Please don't use 'LA' in my class." Oh well!


Example 2

The children were engaged in Guess and Share with Ms Angeline last Thursday. As the children were taking turns to raise their hands to guess the object in the Guess and Share Bag, one child was called upon to ask a question, "You got it from where?" Ms Angeline rephrased the question and said, "Where did you get the Guess and Share from?" Once again, Ms Angeline reminded the children not to place the word 'where' at the end of the question.

After which, it was time for dismissal. Ms Angeline brought the children to the canteen and waited for the parents to pick up their child. As Ms Angeline waved good bye to the children, their parents would ask their child to say good bye to her. Naturally, the child said, "Bye, Bye!". And the parents would then ask, "Bye, Bye, WHO?" Ms Angeline nearly fainted on the spot. Need she say more?


P/S: Ms Angeline uses SINGLISH with ONLY her friends and family.
P/P/S: Ms Angeline is super duper happy this weekend!

It's been a while!

After much much much coordination, Angeline finally met up with Tim and John. As everyone was (too) busy with work and was too tired to meet up after work, the trio decided to meet up on a Saturday afternoon where they can sit down, relax, enjoy a meal together. This plan finally work out on the last day of February.

The venue of Marina Square was chosen by Angeline, as she needed to do her Manicure and Pedicure there after the gathering. The restaurant CA was chosen by John, as he was the first to arrive after being 15 minutes later than the arranged time. As Tim was the latest, he didn't get the chance to choose. Angeline and John were not being mean to Tim. They merely helped him to decide.

The trio spent about 3 hours at CA of Marina Square just for lunch. They started with a round of Potato Soup, continued to share the three main courses and finished up with a scoop of Vanilla ice-cream each. The rest of the time was used for updating, sharing and debating. Angeline posted a topic, 'Trust comes first or Love comes first?' Both Tim and John agreed that it has to be TRUST. To which Angeline debated till she convinced them that LOVE comes first. Angeline's point is very simple, which is 'You need to love a person blindly before you are willing to trust that person.' John's point is 'When you love a person, you give that person the right to hurt you, trusting that the person won't.' Tim has no point. He is confused.

Till the next round! Angeline is looking forward to it!

P/S: Angeline and the rest debated whether if we should invite our partners for the next round.
P/P/S: Everyone agreed that we should not. The reason is quite obvious.
P/P/P/S: Congratulations, John (for you-know-what)!

Angeline is confused again

After much efforts, Angeline finally found out that the Crystal Jade branch at IMM is called Crystal Jade Dining Place and not Crystal Jade Palace Restaurant. Before Angeline loaded the photographs, Angeline remembered asking Ck to double confirmed her doubts. Well, Angeline guessed that Ck was as confused as her.

Angeline and Ck went to Crystal Jade Dining Place at IMM with Hazel and Alan. Angeline strongly recommeded the food at the restaurant. The food was a little pricey but Angeline thought that it was worth the money. Angeline fell in love with the pot of soup, which was thick and full of ingredients. To add more credits, Ck, Alan and Hazel were full of praises for the soup too. Yum-Yum! The rest of dishes like Braised Beancurd with Conpoy Mushroom and Pines Nuts and Fried Silver Fishes were also highly recommended by Angeline.

A good meal to end the week and kick-start a fresh week!

P/S: Angeline forgot the name of the soup. Sorry la!
P/P/S: Angeline is thinking of going back again later.
