I passed my final theory test!!!!! ^___________________^ next step would be to find a good private driving instructor >< The lady at the driving centre said that I would need the IC of my instructor and my PDL before I can apply for the Practical test ><

Last Saturday, I woke up to the sound of children shouting. Groggily went to the balcony to take a look and saw that they were doing filming! Quickly grabbed my FZ5 and snapped a few photos ^_^ I really love the x12 zoom on it. It picked up all the details that my eyes couldn't catch! The children are so cute lol.. kinda pity them tho, the sun was really hot ><


On May Day, FL dragged lazy me away from my GE gaming to go East Coast for cycling ^^; Decided to be healthy and walked to Lakeside MRT despite the fact that it was crazily sunny >< But managed to capture the beautiful grass patch beside the station ^_^


The grass is pretty tall, maybe slightly shorter than your knees. There is a little pathway that leads from the MRT station to the condominiums in the background ... when people walk along this path, it gives the illusion that they are swimming in the grass ^_^ Once they develop the lakeside area, I'm pretty sure this plot of land will become concrete buildings =( *takes photo for rememberance*

We cycled to the other end of East Cost Park and were pleasantly surprised by a new developed area! Atmosphere there was really nice (doesn't feel like I'm in Singapore!) There was an African drum performance (Liladrums.com) going on. Very nice and catchy rhythms ^_^ And you can tell the performers were really enjoying themslves :D. They offer classes $200 for 8 lessons at either Queestown CC or 116 Telok Kurau Road



'The Sea food International Market and Restaurant' is also located there. It has a really interesting concept ... you can purchase the fresh seafood direct from the restaurant! I like their tagline 'If it swims we have it' LOL



Outside view of 'The Sea Food International Market and Restaurant' So pretty .. doesn't feel like it's in east coast park. Each table actually has it's own room surrounded by glass panels. Really exclusive. They are having a Mother's Day promotion, $398++ for 6 pax. They also have the Business Set lunch $28++ per pax, min 2 pax.



After cycling, we decided to have dinner at an Irish pub amusingly named Scruffy Murphy. It was nice to sit there and feel the sea breeze ^^ 



GE news: I finally got Catherin's hips!!! Woohooo! Also, just 11 patches of dresses away from making the costume for my elementalist ^_^

I have this to thank for my successful passing of the Final Theory test :P I'm such a geek...



After passing the Final Theory test, I decided to go to IMM for abit of shopping indulgence XD. Bought a $19 top from the G2000 sale, and some miscellaneous stuff from Daiso :D

Thanks ^_^ ~~~ How is learning to drive like over at your side? Think for you it would be a very useful skill since it's so much bigger over there?

I'm kinda scared of taking the practical lessons too ^^;

haha the roads here are not very well marked not like in SG, some of the road signs can hardly see o_o; also the drivers in vancouver.... oh boy :P I got bumped by a car before a while back so I was kinda trying to get over it =_=;
now even when I am in a car, if on the side someone is driving too fast towards us at a crossroad I feel like I gonna curl up and dodge LOL

wah PDL 6 months expiry ya? better go learn leh. I heard private lessons would be cheaper.. as low as 20+ per class compared to school which is 50+

hehehe.. I never tried that soup before but the packaging looked so delicious!

As for the rest, mostly for crafting purpose.. ribbon, wrapping paper. And I got a cool collaspable box :D

Private instructors are cheaper definitely, i also took thru private leh. but i think good ones 30-40. Mine was at Yio chu kang there, let me know if u consider..coz a bit far for u. they will apply for the practical test for u, so not to worry :)
