this morning i woke up slightly later than other days .. i guess i just feel like giving my body the required rest to mug for my a levels ..
something queer happen was that i was having an inexplicable experience.. while sleeping i heard that my mum was telling my dad that she is not able to go with us for the Taiwan trip as her company is holding an event in Dec. the next thing was i dreamt of the bbq sesssion that will be held up at my grandma's place this evening..
the next moment when i woke up.. I was asking my sister whether my mum was not able to go for the taiwan trip as I vaguely heard some background noises around me.. luckily she said that it was not true and i am dreaming ...
after having my breakfast, I sat on the sofa to watch the repeated series of my HK drama - Xue Jing Chu Geng.. after which, I went to my room to study for my Chemistry and unknowingly i fall fast asleep..
Late in the evening i was really to tired and lazy to get myself up to go for the bbq session.. however, i managed to get myself up, took a shower and get ready to go to my grandma house for the bbq session..
when i arrived at my grandma house, i was busy helping my uncle with the food and preparation and that goes without saying eating .. haha!! ..

Today, I went for my basic theory driving test. Before the test, I was busy reading my driving theory book at home as I do not wish to retake again. I am grateful for those of my friends who have wished me good luck for my test.. Thanks Babes!! keke
Earlier in the afternoon at 3pm i went for my e-trial- a 45 mins trial test to test on how well you have studied on the highway code. However, I failed my e-trial on the first attempt but after which you review the questions that you have answered wrongly and the correct answer will be given to you. After which, you can try out for another different set of e-test again and this I have passed it
After 2 trials of the e trial tests, I went downstairs to take my actual test. When I took the test I was very happy as the test came out with the questions that I was tested during my e-trial test. Therefore, I am able to answer most of the questions with ease and yeah I have passed my basic driving test. A closer step to my dream - getting my driving license. By right, I could have taken my pdl which I can start learning to drive on the road with an instructor beside me. But the examiner in the room told me that the whole practical course will lasts about 6 months so I intended to take it together with my driving final theory next year in order to concentrate on my A levels. So happy.. that things are falling into the right place as I what I had wanted them to be. On the overall, my life is back into a complete piece =P .. Yeah.. knowing the right people of my life have made my life complete..

yesterday went to meet out with charlene n cheng xuan ... We had arranged to meet at 12pm but i was held up with my Hk drama ,Xue Jing Chu Geng and so I was late. Next, we went to cheng xuan house to see his dog - Sheltie breed.. well .. the dog is so so so cute except that he is so quiet. I guess it was his sleeping time. Somemore this dog is so high class used to eat a lot of food that he do not eat his own dog food unless you personally feed him with the food on your hand.
We stayed there for few hours to play with him and we head off to Ehub to watch the movie "Money No Enough 2"...Well it was a nice, funny and touching movie, at least i did not fell asleep in the theatre.
After the movie, we went to had our dinner at White Sands food court.. The food was quite average.. Well, food court what else to expect. After finishing our food, we were still sitting there chatting and chatting until it was 8 plus in the night, close to 9pm.
Finally, each of us headed our way home..

haiz .. went to the Natas Fair yesterday was given a great deal..
but today i have lost it .. thanks to the tour agent!! .. worse still she told me that any kind of citibank cards will have 50 off per couple..
the next thing come to my mind was that since there are 6 ppl going with me.. i can get 150 off from the total price of the package of 7.. at that moment i was half hearted in considering the package that she has offered to me.. so i told her i will walk around and compare the price before going to her.. next the tour agent say that if i put a 50 deposit with her i can safeguard my booking and i can pay the full lump sum the next day.. after which i went to a couple of booths to compare the price and found out that the price initial tour agent quote me is the best.. i admit it is partly my fault for making assumptions and not counterchecking with her as in what booking i am safeguarding that i gave her a chance to twist her words to say that the 50 deposit is only to safeguard the booking of the price of the hotel room but not the airfare..
sadly, today the air ticket fare increases, so the tour agent quote me an exorbitant price.. so we went to another tour agent and he gave me another price cheaper.. so we settled on it..
Well.. anyway now i have learnt that whenever i am dealing with anything related to money.. i must be very careful and not to make any assumptions .. ask for all the details from A to Z ..
to prevent them from twisting their words .. i will take a voice recorder with me as a prove of evidence in court .. now i have realised that the world is complicated .. full of cheats who r out dere to squeeze you dry..
above all.. i swear i will never book from any tour agencies except from airlines.. even to those places where it is inaccessible i will never book any tour packages and gave those agents the chance to pocket our money... I would rather go any have an international driving license and travel everywhere around by myself..
what a disappointment i had with these tour agents!!! with these kind of people around.. Singapore is a ugly place to live in.. thanks to them for giving Singapore such a "good" reputation!!!
