My iPod's Playin'... [01.08]
State of Being : K-Pop for a change
랄랄라, It’s Love! (Lalala, It's Love!) - The Melody
Album: 커피프린스 1호점 (Coffee Prince); Genre: Soundtrack
Taken off the soundtrack of the "Coffee Prince", I never thought that I would actually be playing this song over and over again in my ipod. But I guess given the popularity of MBC 17-parter Korean drama "The 1st Shop of Coffee Prince" or simply titled as "Coffee Prince", that is currently airing 5 days a week on Channel U, it is inevitable that this bouncy opening theme "랄랄라, It’s Love!"
(Lalala, It's Love!) eventually gets stuck in my head!
Starring popular actress Yoon Eun Hye & Gong Yoo, there are in fact many memorable scenes from the show which could be relived with the songs compiled on this soundtrack. Compiled mostly of soothing and calming music, I think the soundtrack is best suited for a spin on a sunny day. In addition to The Melody's "랄랄라, It’s Love!" (Lalala, It's Love!), other recommended tracks include As One's "White Love Story", The Melody's "Polly" and the ending theme Tearliner's "고고찬!!" (Go Go Chan!!)

Slowly but Surely
State of Being : It's taking shape!
Just been to the new flat. The renovation works is 60% close to completion. What's with the new flat built by HDB anyway? The flats are no longer comparable in terms of size to the ones built 10-20 years ago.
Won't deny I'm actually not looking forward to shifting cos my new room seems much smaller than the current one. Arghhhh I'm already feeling claustrophobic!!! :(
Anw I'll be giving an update (whenever possible) on the status of my new room. Here's what has been completed so far as at 20 Jan.

It's official. It's finalised. It's confirmed!
After having stayed here for one-fifith of a decade, sad that we'll be shifting to a new house in two months time.

Goodbye to Junction 8 & Hello to Punggol Plaza...
Goodbyes, Goodbyes, Goodbyes...
Guess it's time to start packing and clearing stuffs liao. *Hiaz*
Didn't know I have so much "unwanted" stuffs until I started packing. And THANK GOD I got balloted for a Flea Market slot at Tanglin Mall on 16 Feb. Apparently, someone has given up his lot and they called me up only a week later after the ballot date to inform me that I had been alloted a lot (Lot 23 to be precise!) in the redraw. Hopefully my bros, my sis-in-laws and myself will be able to sell off some of our stuffs in return for some $$$!
In the meantime, I can only cherish my "limited" time & convenience & freedom here in my soon to be ex home... *sob sob*

Hello 2008!!!
State of Being : Full *Burp*
Met up with the usual kaki for the annual NYE Countdown. Time really flies, can't imagine that we have been keeping up with the 'tradition' for 10 years now. With the exception of 1 year, where majority of the gang are working overseas and the countdown had to be called off, the usual suspects had always turned up for the countdown without fail.
For this year, since CH has graciously invited us to his condo for a housewarming-cum-countdown party, we decided to do pot-luck to save CH & his wife the hassle.
The variety of food was abundant yesterday, ranging from pizzas, curry chicken, shephard's pie, poached prawns to meatballs, "bah kwah" pao (not "kong bah" pao meh??) & poh piah (last count ONLY 2 went ahead to roll their poh piahs though). For deserts, we stuffed ourselves silly with the extremely sinful Awfully Chocolate cake plus some Chips & Dips.
What's the commotion?
Main highlight of the day has got to be the "overly-concentrated" fondue!! Despite the host's second attempt at melting the chocolate (he has done a trial run the night before), the chocolate still somehow turned out as a "thick" chocolate paste. In the end, we had no choice but to resort to mxing some chocolate Swensens Ice Cream, since there weren't any fresh milk, to de-concentrate the paste.
Somehow the fondue still look salahOverall, minus off the "miss(es)" (i.e. the fondue), everyone had lots of fun catching up with one another and I'm pretty sure that those whom were present were sure to have gain some extra pounds from the good spread!!
10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1....
HAPPY 2008!!!!
HAPPY 2008!!!!
