umm, where to start, huh?

okiedokie, so, last saturday, jesslynne and i went to IKEA!! FINALLY!! AFTER WEEKS OF WAITING!

and every trip to ikea is an adventure (at least for me), hehe. not only did we buy a bunch of stuff, i also met a guy who has a striking resemblence with koko jay!! only koko jay is much cooler. HAHAHA.

then, because we bought two tall shelves, we had to get all the goods delivered. sunday, i was rushing from fort canning park to my hostel because the ikea guy called me, in the middle of my lonesome photo-taking experience. AIYOUW! so kanjiong lah me... and it was an extremely HOT day, i almost fainted when i got back!

BUT THEN, all the fatigue faded away once i saw my precious stuff... SWEET, SWEET IKEA!

and we're sooo KIKIR (a.k.a kiasu) that we didn't bother to ask the ikea guys to assemble them for us. we believe that assembling them ourselves is the fun part of it all.

LITTLE DID WE KNOW, THOUGH.

we successfully managed to put together one small bathroom-scale storage unit for our small cupboard. then, next, we tried to assemble this cheap-cheap bookshelf that we bought for only $29. AND WE COULDN'T, because we need a DRILL to assemble it and we don't have one.

so, we were, like, "NOW WHAT?"

hahahaha, stupid, right? LUCKILY, we were able to assemble our most coveted pieces--we bought two of trofast shelving units, each for $79--with MUCH EFFORT, i tell you. although, luckily for me, jez is bloody STRONG LEH, so i don't need to bust my ass out so much.

ooh yes, we rock. in the background are our precious trofast shelves!

oohh, on wednesday, after going to the stupid park AGAIN (but i got great pictures that day!), i went on a solo trip to plaza singapura, which wasn't far from there. and i tell you, in plasing, they got EYE CANDY EVERYWHERE!! whoah, i was blinded by the number of pretty goodies that i wanted to buy (but i couldn't because i only have $18 in my camera bag haha).

WHAT CAUGHT MY ATTENTION AT PLAZA SINGAPURA:
~ the TIMES bookstore promotion! they got 20% discount on several interesting titles, including two drawing-courses books!
~ the scrapbook shop... they got all sorts of papers, materials, and whatever-you-name-it stuffs, and they were so pretty... AND EXPENSIVE, MIND YOU.
~ of course, DAISOOO! ahahahahha, mind you, the daiso in singapore is cheaper than in indonesia.
and if you have time to browse carefully, they have all sorts of cool goodies that you can snatch at only $2--okay i'm starting to sound like the saleslady.

ooh, and i broke my 3D project. SO SAD! stupid oven, stupid technician who never warn me. (riteeeee, just blame everyone)

oh, and TOMORROW (or shall i say today), is NAFA SPORTS DAY! why am i so excited, anyway?? hahaha, it's held in SENTOSA, by the way. my 2nd-year friends said that last year's event was quite boring, so i'm not so positive about tomorrow. or today. and dammit, i gotta wake up early to meet up with my friends @harbourfront.
