easter hols' part 2...

this is a continuation of my easter hols' update...
last thurs, went to the city for karaoke... okay but this time, i went with huilin and a few singaporean pple from the spp program that i attended last year... it was quite fun but at the same time, weird... fun bcos i love karaoke, and i have not been for a long long time and going with singaporeans are better bcos i get exposed to a wider variety of songs and can then update my song list... haha... now got 2 new songs which i like... one by rainie yang called "zhi xiang ai ni" and the other is by jolin tsai, "dao dai"...
i also got to eat my korean spicy beef twice... yes, twice, for both lunch and dinner... haha... it has got to be the nicest korean food i have ever eaten... even better than ceci...
but the weird thing abt going karaoke with them is... i dun even noe them well, even huilin, although she was also from njc and we were in the same cca... we were not even close then, but we have gotten quite close now, dunno why, maybe bcos when u are in a foreign land, when u meet someone from the same place as u... u will naturally bond with them, like they actually know what u are saying and we understand each other... like for eg, at karaoke, we did funny things like the kallang wave and took alot of pics... and the singlish naturally comes out... when i am talking to the aussies for eg or even friends who are non-s'porean, i have to mentally check my language first before speaking...
anyway, back to karaoke, we started at 1pm and sang till like 8pm... aren't we die-hard karaoke fans??!!

and then huilin came over to stay for a night... and we stayed up to watch failure to launch, which was not nice btw, the two leads just dun have the chemistry... and they look funny together...

and then on fri, we went to hornsby to shop...
okay, our first stop was kmart cos huilin needed to get something, and so while i was browsing ard, i happen to see the post-easter sale going on... ALL the easter chocolate eggs were selling for $1 each, both big and small kinds... i totally freaked man!

i grabbed as many as i could, got huilin and the both of us started to grab the easter eggs like they dun need money...
in the end, we ended up with 3 bags each of eggs and bcos they were so bulky, we had difficulty walking, much less shopping... after a few shops, i was like exhausted already, my fingers were about to break man...


on sat... had to work the whole day, and at night, michelle's friends came over for dinner, and we ate pizza again... i have been eating so many pizza since uncle and auntie were gone, it's not funny... so sick of it already... apparently, one of her colleagues, diana, who's also s'porean, is going back to singapore to work permanently soon... she's really funny though... although she's been here for so many years already, she's still really singaporean... i actually think i will be like that too... even though i am going to be here for quite awhile, i will still act like a s'porean, still speak singlish and stuff... i still remember our national anthem... haha...

sun... alamak... the supermarket where i work suddenly blacked out, after i just started work... and it lasted for an hour and a half, i thought we would be allowed to go home, since we can't do anything about it, but no... we had to start cleaning everything, and after that, help to do shelving... irritating man... the lights came back on after awhile and i thought it would already be like 9pm, but no... it was only 730pm... ohmigod, i still have like 3 hours to go... great... apparently, we were not the only ones affected, the surrounding areas were also affected and the whole stretch of road at thornleigh was pitch dark...
hmm... recently, all the cute guys at woolies all disappeared, sian man...
