No-school day today so I tried to catch up with work. Have been so lazy ttm recently with the cny mood and all. Haha. Getting lazier by the year, seriously. Managed to finish watching my webcast, tutorial questions and a bit of research for project! So I decided to take a break and blog instead!
Here are some overdue pictures!
New Paul Frank mat! Pretty not! $10 only!
^^
^^
Matching Paul Frank blanket (birthday present) as well! Haha.
This is Eira, my cousin's baby girl!
My cousin's dog, yoyo! Hahaha, we have matching outfits uh.
Fei Fei, my youngest cousin! Cute and pretty eh? She doesn't really like taking photos so it's really rare to have her pose this way with me.
Went with the family to Dong Po Colonial Café for brunch on Sunday (9/2/14)!
$5 for the pastry set - any 2 pastries and a cup of drink! We ordered 4 sets. :)
After that we went to my dad's friend's house. (Uncle Stuart)

This is my first time meeting little Bryan, Uncle Stuart's son. 2 years old, so his speech isn't very developed yet. But's i'm quite pro at deciphering kids' talk, so that's not a problem for me. Haha. And that's his attempt at twisting and smiling for the camera when I told him to! Showed him the pictures and he even knows how to swipe to look at other shots. Haha.
Then all of us headed to Uncle Patrick's house! Another of my dad's friend.

Wasabi Kitkat!
Lovely shade of green. Yums.
But I only had one of it because I had difficulty eating stuffs that requires a lot of chewing. This lasted for the past few days because....I finally put on my braces on Friday (7/2/14)! Paid a down payment of $1070, and for 10 subsequent visits I just have to pay $107. Upon getting my retainers I would than have to pay another $214. Total damage at about $2354. Considered relatively cheap already!

Before and after. Lol.
Feeling damn awkward because I have to consciously close my mouth. Braces for the top row only for now! Have to let the two inner teeth to shift out before putting braces on the bottom row. Dr Lim also attached two white stuffs onto my upper back tooth to prevent me from biting entirely which would hinder the inner teeth from shifting outwards. Hence that contributed to the difficulty of eating the first few days. Plus it was a little sore whenever I ate, so the first few days I really didn't have much appetite. Thought I could slim down from this process but now that the sore is almost gone, I just ate whatever I see. Haha. smiling feels very awkward now. So does talking. Thankfully my speech is fine! For now at least. Tons of presentations in class this semester, so it would be quite embarrassing if I speak weirdly in front of everyone.
Heh. So other than putting on braces, every day is about the same. Went to massage again on Sat (8/2/14) and this time was being chided for not bringing my own bed sheets. Oops. It was a pretty weird day but oh well. Things will work out themselves. 船到桥头自然直. Not entirely sure if this saying works in this context though. Hmm.
Also received my January pay! Like a finally! Haha, now it's time to calculate a sum to give to my parents...
