Rebonding failure...

I went to Bedok again on Saturday... This time is to do rebonding for my hair... My sis gave me this contact where the lady charges reasonable prices for rebonding. Since I think it's time for me to do rebonding for my hair and heard from my sis that her friends says it's not bad, I decided to risk my hair and try out to see how good it is.

The place that my sis recommended me was actually at someone's place. It's those home based salon in a 3 room flat... There are lots of people who go there for to cut, perm, dye or rebond their hair. I was actually quite stunned to see so many people there when I reached that place.

It took me 2 hours of waiting before my turn came and all the while there are still people coming in. My rebonding took another 4 hours and I almost fell asleep if not for the television programme. The 2 ladies are very hospitable, offering food, drinks, sweets and even fruits while I was waiting to finish my whole rebonding process.

Finally my rebonding was done and it LOOKS quite nice. But it only looks lah... I felt some roughness in my hair when I was touching it. It was not smooth like the previous times I did my rebonding in other places. I questioned the lady if she burned my hair but she said that it's cos the cream they applied on my hair was too close to the scalp that's y I can feel some roughness. It should go away after a few washes. I seriously doubt so...

Tried washing my hair and I still can feel the roughness... :( Think my hair is more or less gone liao. Maybe will consider going to Kimage to do touch up for my rebonding and see if they can 'save' that part of my hair... Let's hope so...

Watching movies in Bedok Princess

I took time off on friday to go back to SP to submit the hard cover binded copy of my final year project. As I was still quite early after I submitted my final year project, I decided to head down to Bedok to wait for Benny to finish work.

I managed to reach Bedok at 5 plus but after I finally managed to get Benny on the phone, he told me he can only finish work at 7 plus. Wah... that's like 2 hours of waiting so I decided to go walk walk in Bedok central. In the end I decided to go to Bedok library to wait for him.

After Benny finally finished work, I met him and we had dinner at the hawker center near the bus interchange. Since we had no plans after dinner, we decided to catch a movie in the only cinema in Bedok, Princess as we were too lazy to go town also. I got a surprise when I saw how cheap they are charging for the movie tickets. I do know these kind of old cinema does not charge as much as GV or Cathay for the movie ticket but I din realised that they actually only charge $6 for a movie ticket on friday. That's like $3.50 difference from the usual friday movie ticket wor...

Prices of the movie tickets in Bedok Princess

Princess is those kind of old old cinema where I used to watch movies in when I was young. It has this big big screen with lots of seats in the theatre. Maybe because their seats are not as comfy as those that you find in Cathay cinemas, so in order to attract people to watch movies there, they had to lower their prices. I sort of missed watching movies in these kind of old old cinemas. Maybe because it brings back memeories of my parents bringing my siblings and I to watch a movie in the cinema in AMK. I kind of miss those days... :)

Future plans....

Just finished my presentation for my global marketing proj today. According to the lecturer my group scored the highest for our report but he thinks our presentation is disastrous. No choice lah... He did told us to put in only the main things in the project. However I think my group overdid it by leaving out some of the important points he hoped that we will present. :P Anyway, no matter wat we finally finished my global marketing project. Hope we can score for the project cos I din do very well for his test. :P I still have my flash scene for my Web Based Multimedia that I have yet to touch. Luckily it's only one scene. I think lazy me will start working on it tomorrow nite ba... :P

My manager and I was chit chatting this afternoon while he was inside the lab carrying out some "destructive" work. We always say that he is out to destroy something in the lab whenever he comes in the lab to do some work no matter whether it is some R&D or helping us to solve some problem. I will always ask him "You come in to destroy what thing this time round?" whenever he puts on his lab coat. :P He was asking me what are my future plans after I finished my adv diploma. I had given this some thought before but I really have no idea what to do. I am still more interested in getting a degree in Chemical field but that will require me to study 3 years in NUS or approximately 1.5 yrs in Australia. Other than the $$ factor, my mum is also against me going overseas to study as she always has the opinion that people usually go overseas to study only when they cant get into Sg University. I am not saying that I can get into NUS w my poly results lah, but I jus dun wish to study full time for 3 yrs in Sg. I mean who will 'yang' me while I study? I know I can take up part time work whilst I study but I'm actually kind of tired of studying n working at the same time. I have been studying and working throughout my poly life and working n studying after I graduate. I think working and studying is still the most siong one... :P

Whatever the case, I think I will need to start to give my future study plans some time soon. After all I will be graduating from my adv diploma soon. Wooo... looking forward to 22 September 2006... Cos that will be the last day I have to attend lessons for the course. In the meantime I will need to study hard for the stupid exams that cause me to miss my company's technical team building day... @#$%

One Rochester

We went to One Rochester to celebrate Celest, Yiqun and JiSim's bdae. Quite a nice place I will say but if anyone if going there, it is best if you go there after you have dinner. This is because the menu there basically serves only light bites or things that wun be able to fill ur stomach. :P They serve mainly alcoholic drinks there which does not taste very fantastic also. I guess people go there for the ambience ba but prices there for the food and drinks are not very cheap wor. One of my friend who ordered a food and a fruit punch have to pay like $38??? Quite ex in my opinion if not for the ambience.

Yiqun and I explored the place after we went to the ladies. I think of the whole place, I prefer the Balcony and the Garden the most. The Balcony looks very cosy and looks good enuff for a small group of people. The Garden is very nice also... Think it is best if you call to reserve a place if you are going there.

We bought a Fossil watch for Jisim from the Fossil boutique in Hereens that I liked a lot... According to the sales girl in the boutique, she said they only brought in 2 of that piece of watch and we happened to buy the last piece. So sad... I dun mind getting it for myself... But then again, the watch dun really look nice on my wrist cos it looks rather big there. Never mind... I shall try hunting for another watch for myself... :)

Taxi fare hike

Been thinking abt the taxi fare hike recently. They say they increased the taxi fares so that the taxi drivers can earn more. I'm not so sure that taxi drivers are earning more after the taxi fare hike. At least I wun be seeing this unusual scene that I never see before the taxi fare hike if they are really earning more...

Never ending projects...

Have not been updating my blog for a very very long time because I have been very busy for the past one month with my final year project and my projects for my other modules. It's been a tough 1 month struggling to complete all my projects. I have just managed to finish my final year proj a few weeks ago and my Global marketing the project just now. Finally can a break... Phew~! Sad to say though... I still have to study for my test tomorrow which will takes up 30% of my total module grade. :( No matter what, I am still happy to finish up most of my projects liao. There's still one web based multimeadia project for me to finish up wor... Luckily my classmate already finish up most of what we should do liao. :D

Will be updating some thoughts I have for the past few weeks as soon as I have the time to sit down and blog... :P
