Sambucks! And the usual work!

Okay, the coffee joke was for quite some time!!!

I made coffee that is super thick for my house mates! Also know as Kopi-o gao gao!!! Oops... Then after that, my coffee became notorious!!! It became so famous among my house mates that they call it Sambucks!!! Hoho!!!

Oh well, took some photos of the office!!!

Look at the cake! It's on the table at the reception area!!!

And Mozart!!! He love to play fetch!!! He can do that all day!!!

And tada! My lovely desk at the center of the pit in the office!

After that, our colleagues drove us back home! Alright!!!! Then, we invited them in and made them Milo! Haha!!! There is no Milo here! Only Hot chocolate or Hot cocoa!!

Oh ya, when u wanna da-bao/take away, it's called 'to go' here! Here it's 'Eat it' or 'to go'!!! Not 'Take away!'

Talking about food... I was modeling a mug today and I felt that I have an alcohol craving!!! Haha...

Okay, I'm tired... So wanna watch DMC Anime!!! I can't find the streaming site!!!!! ARgh!!!! And, wanna watch animes!!!! Feel so long since I last watched 1!!! Shall go sleep le... Nitez!!!!

Okay, the weekends.... Yeah!!! Slept late!!!

28 March 09, Sat
Oh well, but kinda overslept....

Hoho! Went to the airport to fetch Doreen! And, we overslept!!! On the way to the airport, we are all praying that she won't come out so soon... And phew! We made it in time!!!

We are early actually! Then Fala saw all the travel tours and guides and planners! And kept grabbing and grabbing them. And I joined her in grabbing the tours brochures! It's addictive! Once u grab 1, u'll wan to grab more!!!

Then we went to grab coffee and jelly donuts!!! Yeah! Kat got it for us! It's on the company! Yeah! Free Donut and Coffee!!!

After that, saw the guys walking down the hill as we drive pass them. Then meet them at the bank to settle the banking stuffs!

Next it's lunch time!!! Went to Arby's to have fast food!


And, during lunch, I finally saw the first cab/taxi here!!!!!!!


After lunch, went to Albertsons to get more groceries and look at the cakes!!!!!

And got brooms and stuff as well! Tada!! Josh in his Yellow Poncho? Not sure how u spell that. Haha... It's a really striking colour!!!! Cool eh?


And, seeing that broom in the photo, u guys might have guessed it! It's clean up time! We vacuum our carpets and then, clean and wash the toilets!!!

Also, I took a super long time to do my laundry... Well, the simple process is, put in washer and wash(maybe around 30mins?), then, take out and separate the jeans, place the non jeans into the dryer to dry first(around 1 hour), then take out and put the jeans in to dry (another 1 hour). Well, but i took the whole day!!! Cause i kept forgetting about it...

That's the laundry that I kept forgetting about!!!


Oh ya, I think I made some mashed potatoes for fun as well. And, I refuse to eat it... Haha...

~~~~~~~~~~~~

29 March 09, Sun
Oh man... Once again, overslept....

It's a sunny day today!!! Miss the sun so much!!! Yeah! It's much warmer today!!!

Yeah! And, some random photos!!! Look at the flag!!! The wind is blowing it so nicely!

Okay, okay, the truth is I took a couple of photos and waited for the wind to blow... And, that's the bus interchange!!! Also, some magazines and ads...

Anyway, took the bus and went to Alderwood shopping area!!! YEAH!!!! It's big!!! Oh well, but still, I think there's just not enough time to shop around!!!

See that? That's Coach! Well, there are more photos but, haven't exchange photos yet...

Okay, then, off into the mall! Saw the Gumball machine!!! I just wanna try it! Yummy! But after chewing, it's tiring...


Alright, then shop and bought quite alot of stuff!!!! bought a few more clothes and then, got sweets as well!!! Hee!!!! Haven't took photo of the sweets!

I bought truffle and root beer sweets and candy powder!!!! I am so tempted to buy that super big kisses chocolate!!! Oh well, guess not, might be too sweet! Haha!

Anyway, we girls took really long to shop and made the guys waited for around 1 hour!!! Hoho! Oops! And, I got Starbucks coffee!!!!

Then, waited for the bus and chatted at the bus stops about scars! Took the buses back home and ate maggi mee for dinner! Hoho! The guys did the cooking again!! While we are trying our new clothes! Oops!

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Okay, some random stuff! Alright here are the coins in the US! 5 cents is bigger than 10 cents! And quarter dollar is really useful! Like, buying gumballs? And it's kinda easier to count. I have too much 1 cent coins now!!! ARgh!!! I'll try to get rid of it!


Oh man... running out of money again... I think it's kinda scary! Haven't really calculated, but I think I've spent quite alot already!!! Everytime there's a shopping trip, my mentally will become like tourist! Which is pretty bad! I should keep track of my spending!!! Argh!!!! So so so wanna buy more cute t-shirts!!!

Okay, i better not oversleep tmr! Tired... argh... Well, at least i've blog most of the stuff... oh well... not too sure what else to blog.... Okay, maybe alot to blog, but it's just getting more and more messy! Especially my photos! Well, my camera is also jet lag, so the folders are kinda messy, I've just changed the timing... Oh ya, I should change the timing for my blog also...

Oh ya! I just recalled... My face is on SP website... Argh... I look super old!!!! The article.... Eww... Weird...

Oh well, off to bed! Ja ne!

Bothell, Getting use to the place!

I guess I'll just blog slowly.... Haha! Well, 1 week have passed...

20th March 09, Friday
Oh well, got down from the airport, got on the van and then ride to the house. Nice photogenic house!

And, I look so like a teenage boy from Matt's Photos of me in the house... Darn!!!! Ahh!!! I think I need papaya milk!!!

Okay, basically, stayed at the house and waited for the carpet cleaners to wash the carpet on the first floor. While, the others went to the office to write emails, then do groceries and open banks accounts, blah blah blah...

Then we had a simple dinner, some eggs and some food(i forgot).

~~~~~~~~~~~~

21st March 09, Sat
Morning! And we went down the hill.... Now it's like the usual hang out place for workouts!

Walked down hill for lunch. And, it's Canyon Park shopping area!!!! That's the nearest shopping area to the house!


Well, can't remember what we did for dinner... Hmm... I think we cooked some pastas...

~~~~~~~~~~~~

22nd March 09, Sun
Alright!!! And we went to explore further to Lynnwood! And clothes!!! Haha! Went to shop for clothes! There is old navy shop as well! Okay, first off food, went to eat at The old spaghetti factory!

Oh well, and one of our house mate got into the hospital because he accidentally ate a kidney bean which he is allergic to. Luckily, he's okay. Well, no nuts and no beans!

As they went to the hospital, we had to continue our shopping. So, went around to shop.


Then, after that, waited for quite a while at the bus stop because we missed the bus! And it's COLD!!!! Back home for dinner! I forgot what we cook, well, it's food!

~~~~~~~~~~~~

23rd - 27th March 09, Mon-Fri
The first day of work! Okay, so I guess I've pretty much talked about these few days in the previous post. Haha... Saw ducks!!! They roam around free!!!

Oh ya! By the way, there is a game room in the office! Hoho! But it's COLD! no heater in there! But still, it's the GAME room! There's like Nitendo, Xbox, PS3!!!! Well, played Rock Band on Xbox!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Oh ya, here's the photo of my bed room!

I'm so neat right?

Hoho! Just right found some girly stuff!!! Anna Sui's Mirror from Diana and the scarf that Enki-chan gave!!!

Hoho! I think I'll use that scarf tmr to show my feminine side!!!

Okay, weekends will be next post!

Postcards... What do people usually write or do with them? Just write address and send? Anyway, anyone wants postcards? Email me ur home address!!!!

1st post in Bothell

Okay, so the title is super simple and exactly the same as others. Oops!! Also the first post typed using the laptop!!! Okay, I'll do this quick post about Seattle... Won't have that much photos for now...

Presents that I brought with me!!! Hee!!!

Sorry Banana ah! The Lamp Post coin bank kinda hard to squeeze in, so end up i brought the pencil only!!!

Hmm... Let's start with the flight...

Alright, the flight here is super long!!! Well, stopped over at Narita airport in Japan!! Okay, got Tokyo Banana as recommended by Jewl!!!



Well,hmm... can't remember how long it took. Anyway, at Narita Airport, we went to Macdonalds to eat since the planes are not providing lunch!!! Hehe... I ate Ebi Burger! Well, actually, there's like jet lag, so, dun really feel like eating much.

Oh ya! For the 2nd flight, it's exciting! I'm at the last row of the plane! And, there are turbulance!!! Whoa! Excitingly shaky!!!! Oh well, not much movies on the plane, watched a bit of Changeling but, kept falling asleep. So, end up sleeping... Well, most of the movies I've watched, so, nothing much to watch. Hoho! End up watching Disney channel!!!

Okay, upon reaching Seattle, took the train like thing... Whatever it is... Then, a van to our house!!

The house....

While I was compiling this photo, I just realized that I didn't take any photo of my room!!

Had 2 days to rest up and recover from Jet lag before work. And, during these days, went to open a bank account, buy more stuff for the house as well as exploring around the neighbourhood! Argh... We lived up hill... It's just so tiring to keep climbing up, but no choice, need to walk and exercise to warm up, so I usually walk fast! Hoho!

Till now, haven't been to the city. It's kinda like a country side here. U really need a car! Everything is super spread out! And, the bus services end early too! Also, haven't seen a cab/taxi around yet! Oh well... Kinda boring...

The weather here is cold! It usually raining!!! And, yea... people still wear shorts! They are used to the weather though! Well, shopping is really cool! Saw Levi jeans for around 30USD!!! Which is around half price cheaper!! And also, North Face and Old Navy!!! Anyway, I think I need more clothes... Kinda bad... All the photos of me looked like I'm a guy! Yikes...

Hmm... Bus service... Goes by time and if u miss 1, u'll have to wait around half an hour to 1 hour... And, it's pretty expensive! It's $1.50USD per trip!!! And we are pretty lucky for the first day of work! The moment we reach the bus stop, the bus came and everything went pretty smooth. Well, 2nd day, we had to run!!!! And 3rd day, we took the wrong bus and we ended up walking... 4th day, something is wrong with the money sucking machine!!! Ended up I paid 1 dollar more! Oh well, the rest of the days are getting better! And, for today, I think I got back like 50 cents? Hmm... It's getting more and more confusing, money wise... Hopefully, we'll be able to get a car soon!!!

Anyway, didn't really took much photos, so most of them i grab it from the others... This is the interior of the bus and the tickets!!

And now, I've noticed, there are big fat juciy earth worms that comes out when there is rain or when the floor is wet!!! Eeeewwww....

Anyway, started working so Tada!! The office...


Anyway, hoho! The Redvines became one of my favourite snacks just because it's chewy... But, it's tasteless thought... And, the rabbit! Hoho!!! Rabbit with red eyes! It's like a routine! I'll say hi to the rabbit the first thing I reach the office!

Okay, then, my aunt FedEx me a phone!!! Yeah!!!! Spent quite some time opening it though...


Oh well, it's 3 am here now... Well, there's like around 15 hours difference in time... Okay, finally it's Sat!!! Okay, I'll be off to bed, probably take more photos tmr! Argh! And I look so manly in photos! Maybe I need more Papaya milk!

Alright off to bed!

OMG!! It's MARCH! Self-loving photos!

Whoa! That means I'm left with around 2 weeks... I haven't even get the luggage bag out!

Okay, some random stuff!

24th Feb, Tuesday
Went out with Jewl for lunch and movie! Went to watch K-20. Not bad!

For lunch, we had Thai Express! The waitress is super enthusiastic! She introduced us to some nice appetizers! Then, occasionally chat with us. And photo-wise, she took from both sides! Very nice and funny person!

After the movie, we went Starbucks! Whoa! I didn't know that they have Delivery service!!

26th Feb, Thursday
Hoho! Movie with my cousins! We went to Aston to eat!

Well, we really spent a long time queuing up at Aston, at least the food and price was worth the wait.

After that, we dash for the movie, Suspect X! Quite a nice show.
"Why we always running for movies???"

~~~~~~~~~~~~

27th Feb, Friday
Okay, gathering with future colleagues. We went to K buffet at Cineleisure!

Whoa! It's expensive! $37!! I just don't get it! Why when I went KTV with Prett-Teen, she got $10 cheaper?!

I really think Prett-teen is really VIP! She got BIG BIG room for us and DISCOUNTS!!!

At least there are teppanyaki and quite alot of other food! Then of course, KTV!!! Whoa! First time in KTV I heard so many different languages! There are the usual, Mandarin and English songs then there are also Japanese and Vietnamese song as well as Hokkien and Cantonese!

Just as we are about to leave, I went to the toilet... As I walk out, 2 girls was walking in front of me said, "Wah! How come people come KTV to sleep?" Then curiously, I looked into the room! Whoa! People making out... Well, of course, with clothes on...

~~~~~~~~~~~~

28th Feb, Saturday
Since some of my future colleagues can't make it on Friday, organized another gathering on Saturday for ice skating!

In the morning, went out to the creative fair thing to take a look! Saw old class mates and then we disturb and pinic at their booth! Hoho!

Then shop around and then I left for the ice skating. Well, supposed to be there earlier, but everyone else is late, except for 1... Oh man...

Upon reaching the leisure park, "Ice Skating Ring will be closed for 2 days for renovation" (-_-)" Ended up, we went to watch a movie, 'He's just not that into you'! Quite a long show, more like a reality show, not bad!

Then during the movie, the others started msging... Oops...

After that, met up with some others and then went for bowling. Whoa! Amazingly, the machine of our lane Jammed 2 times!!!

Really hungry for dinner and we took a bus to Kallang MRT. No space and we cannot stand up, so we are all squatting or half squatting in the bus... And finally, reached the MRT... Went to Korean BBQ for dinner!

After dinner, still went over to Orchard to have dessert! Then home sweet home after that!

~~~~~~~~~~~~

1st March, Sunday
A Sunday and argh!!

Woke up to a supposingly nice sound of music, sounded like bells. Well, then it continued... The ringing probably started around 9 am I think...

Argh... It's just so frustrating! There is some event nearby and they are playing the music over and over and over again. there probably only 3 tones/notes... It sounded the same! From morning all the way till night they continuously played... It's just so irritating! Driving me nuts!

Prayed hard for the rain to come, hoping to stop that noise. The heavy rain came, but still, they continued. ARGH!!!

For the whole day, just can't do anything, tried blasting music, then it didn't work... Their bells are just too loud! Super irritating! I think there are several complains so they did make it sound softer and softer, but it's still loud!!!!

I just can't stand it and I screammmmmm!!!!! Of course, it's still the same, they are still playing the noise. Sounds cruel but at that point of time I'm just really wishing for car or lorry to just crash into the building, that will probably stop them from playing.

Argh! Oh well, a wasted Sunday...

~~~~~~~~~~~~

2nd March, Monday
Well, nothing much for this day. Just went to Cityhall to collect a form then went for dinner to discuss accommodation over there...

Just really hope we could find some place cheaper...

~~~~~~~~~~~~

3rd March, Tuesday
Movie with Jewl again! Seems like Tuesday is our movie day! This time it's Slumdog Millionaire. Not bad! Pretty interesting!

We went to Feast food court to eat our dinner! Super full! Then after that, Jewl ran back home to catch her last episode of Catching dreams!

As for me, the moment I reach home, I dash to the toilet to shit!!! Hoho! Big one! It just burst out in 1 shot! PIAK!

~~~~~~~~~~~~
