Pot Luck BBQ on 29 Dec

Decided to have a BBQ session with my PEM on 29 Dec 4pm - 10pm at my place. Booked the pit last night successfully so all system go now.

Besides about 15 rascals from my PEM, thinks it will be gd to have another 20 other friends to join the the BBQ as well. To make things easier, it will be pot-luck basis, each bringing some prepared / uncook food to my place so we can have different variety that day.

For my side and my PEM, we will volunteer to Carcoal / butter / chicken wings and satay and sausages.

If you are free and keen to join in the BBQ, pls register and also let us know what are you bringing so there will be no repeats or excess.

Any1 has skewers / wiremesh...?.....

Looking foreword to seeing you all on 29 Dec. Be there!!

2nd Bday celebration

4 kind grads who still remember my bday dropped by with a passion fruit cake today. we spend a enjoyable evening together eating pizza / cake / ice cream / choc etc. As a host i really have to ensure they leave with full stomach. :)

Thought the NTU students already finished their exam...in fact they still have 2 more paper to go...Cody got into Exxon and Shu mei still enjoying his shift work and earning big bucks.

Yi Fan is happy to see the old faces again. He had fun playing mahjong, despite losing and grumpling. He even arm wrestle with Cody and Shu mei. (to see the arm wrestling video, go see my facebook). Finally he played his latest piano composition to them before they left at 8.40pm.

Thanks for the visit!! we had an eveing of fun...hope you had fun too.

Urgent Recall

It was my son final day in school, prize giving night. Need to send him to school by 4.30pm for the violin preactice and make up. So I decided to apply for a half day leave and eat out at Bt batok...it's been awhile I eat my favourite pork tail soup....it's a last minute decision, so as soon as i have applied leave through the system..i packed up and leave office.

Almost reaching Bt Batok, i remember I had a meeting with DT JD...she told me she need to meet up with me Fri pm and I told her ok on Wed, so I decided to give her a call to inform her that I have left office. Hope what she wanted to see me is nothing important....maybe can wait till next Mon pm...??

WhenJD heard that i was almost home she sounds like freaking out. Ordered me to forget about my lunch and come back to school straight away. Heard from the phone background HL is also screaming "dun care!! ask him to turn around his car!!" sounds like lab has got a fire....

So I rushed back Q3, arriving at 1.50pm. Then the door of my office open 5 mins later...
surprise surprise...a durian birthday cake, and 5 colleagues singing happy Bday song. Oh gosh..even i also dun remember my Bday is just round the corner...and I really didn't expect them to remeber and prepare a cake for me too.

Have a nice makan session together and we also eat my personal stock of mocha kit kats / almond cheese cookies and catbury chocolate. Also, we fix a date of our next makan session - week 8 thursday for trying the Burmese resturant.

Thanks for the celebration. Nice to see people around you do care for you. :) thanks...thanks...

CD ripping

Have been busy riping all my CDs into WMA format for the past few nights. Completed ripping those recent CDs in my car / ablum so far. Already took up 1.3GB space. There are still another 50% more CDs (older ones in my shleves)...that will maybe take me another couple of nights to finish the whole exercise.

Wanted to compile all my favourite sones long long time ago...now that there is a USB slot in my new car audio system, i finally took up the eefort cos it make sense to finally do it and enjoy the better songs when I am travelling daily. Good time to do some early spring cleaning on my CDs too...managed to clear out 20% of the less attractive ones.

Anyone reading the blog now has 1-2 songs as your all time favourites and think I must listen?? If yes kindly send the WMA formatted songs to my email : honghoo.goh@gmail.com so that maybe i can expand my library abit more :)

Mandarin / Chinese / English / cantonese song all also can, even hokkian i also listen abit. you u really want to educate me...can try other languages like thai / indian etc...lol who knows...i may like them.

PBP visit to Seraya Shell

It's my free day in school, no lesson at all on Tues, so i decided to visit my 6 pbp students. Good time to try out my 23 days old car along AYE/ JI too. :)

Visited Sin Yee in the 1st stop at Idemitsu. Brought her some japanese custard cakes. We 1st tasted such custard cake in Jia Yi (at bottom of alisan city) and the kids loved the taste, have to queue for 30 mins to get a box back in Taiwan.

Now back home, found this stall in Yew Tee, but the cakes are not as delicate as those in taiwan and also abit smaller. But neverthe less still nice to eat :)

Sin Yee seems vry happy over there and there might be a employment chance for her too....so that will keep her motivated for the next 3 months,

2nd stop - visited khalisa, also borought her a box of cake. Too bad the supervisor is busy meeting, so i talk to her only. she is also happy settling in, her senior LiYan is guiding her so should not be a prblem. Promise to bring her n sup out for lunch in the 2nd visit instead.

Last stop - Shell Seraya.Have lunch out of the JI @ pizza hut - the usual makan place, follow by dessert. After the lunch we even buy 4D!! (Inspiration from my new car). Too bad it didn't come out in the wed draw...hopefully better luck in sat/sun for me :)


will be seeing them again in5 weeks time. hope to bring good reviws with me :)
