Sigh.. i didn't strike lottery! Sadded! Not even a euro! My aunt and my granny did! But not a million. My grandma won 8.5€ for a ticket and 10€ for another cuz she bought 2. My aunt won 5 € with her ticket and poor me didn't win anything! At least they earned back a little of their initial amount cuz each ticket costs 14.5 €. Not fair leh... hahaha. My lottery number is KE 028021. Maybe you guys can try buying in SG. The last four numbers of it always strike but in different permutations. Anyone who won gotta remember to treat me!Hoho Holland has been winning the matches in the European Cup! I didn't watch though I only checked out the scores from my uncle. Hope they get into the finals and I will buy an orange and blue jersey to wear haha. There's a shop we saw today that gives out free beer with every goal that holland scores. They've been leading by 3 goals for the past 2 matches. So that's 6 beers per customer.
We went to Amsterdam Central today and saw the beautiful but slanted buildings and also the red light district for an eye opener. Really is eye opener lor lol the windows with curtains undrawn means there are customers inside already. There are many erotic shops also and I didn't go in of course. Saw many other interesting stuff and took many pictures I'll put them up when I'm free. It's kinda late now I need to wake up in 5 hours time to catch the train to Berlin, Germany :) I'l be back on tuesday!

It was about 5 plus am NL time when we touched down. Did a lttle shopping on the first day and also try remembering some routes that we can take if we need to take trains. The flowers along the roadside are really colourful and pretty. They resemble those in The Sims where there're many different shapes and patterns of trees, plants and everything.
I have very serious eyebags due to the lack of sleep! It's much better now although my dark rings and eye bags have always been there.
We went to Schiphol Airport to shop around since it's very near my aunt's place. Didn't buy much there though. This was before we head out at the front of the house.
My grandma and aunt :)
I'm wearing the pink polo that I bought from H&M on the first day! And this is the garden at home. :)
Today is stay home day because we've been out for the past three days so it's kinda tiring. Watched some shows and also this video that was taken when me and my elder sister and cousins were little kids like around 3 years old? Haha me and my sis had the same kinda hairstyle and she always bullies me! Note that it's present tense because she still does that. Tsk! Old sister you know what you've done hor hhahaha. Ate super lotsa things today my aunt says she's gonna ensure that I put on at least 2Kg before I can go back else ppl would think she mistreats me. I dun want to gain 2Kg! Oh wells I climb up and down the stairs everyday and there's quite and alot of steps and they're steep. It's a form of exercise itself already I hope. Alright because I'm adopting a healthy lifestyle, sleeping at 11pm and waking up at 8plus, 9 in the morning, I shall turn in already. Goodnight world! (The sky has just turned dark not long ago.)

Greetings from NL! :) I've been here for 3 days already. My aunt's house is still under renovation but it's still nice! Will be even nicer after completion. Weather is very cooling as well.. actually quite cold la haha. But I've my cardigans and shawl so it's okay. Everything's been good except for 2 not so good (in fact kinda bad) incidents that happened on the first and second day.First thing: I brought 3 cans of abalone over in my luggage for my aunt cuz she likes to eat it. My grandma bought 4 cans over. The officers checked our luggages before letting us step out to the arrival hall and had them confiscated! This is such a tragedy la! 7 cans in total! That mounts up to about 400SGD? It's okay if the officer were honest and did not keep those for themselves because it's really forbidden to bring meat stuff over and it's our bad that we bring such stuff but if he's gonna keep them for himself, I hope he trips and fall la! Dun think he even knows how to cook it. I'd rather the 7 cans be thrown away. Stupid shit! Well that's the very first bad thing that me and my grandma encountered.
The very first thing I spent my money on is not food but well.. a lottery ticket which is not cheap! It's 14.5Euros which is equivalent to 29SGD? Didn't mean to buy it but cuz my aunt and grandma were buying so I said I shall take a gamble too and it turned out to be so expensive haha oh wells.. The winning numbers will be known tmr, 10/6/08. Pray that I strike! Then I'll be rich! hahaha and I wun be so angry with the officer if I win. Bought was a pink polo tee from H&M on the first day too.
Second bad thing: Not very bad la. Shall not go into details though.
I pulled the weeds last night after dinner for more than 2 hours! I can be a certified weed puller already and it's kinda fun pulling those weeds and despite exerting energy, there was no perspiration at all cuz the weather's v cooling! There's a sense of satisfaction also. The sky turns dark at about 10 plus pm at night so dinner is eaten when the sky is bright. V weird hor?
Thanks those who came and send me off! I'll put some pics up asap. It's 9.44AM over here and 3.44PM in SG. I'm heading out soon! I'll be back! Miss me! :)

Salmon sashimi at Wasabi Tei is really good! But I wonder why the chef and his assistant do not put on any smiles when working, not even a faint smile okay! And I couldn't order an additional chawanmushi because all orders must be made together. Glad we tried it cuz it's really nice but I'll go back two months later! Didn't get anything today and I kept asking june, "you sure you dun wanna get this?" haha I'm a sun3 friend. We saw many nice heels as well but got nowhere to wear to and they're kinda high so not rational. Alright Iron Man and dinner date tmr! Goodnight!Posted by stranger at 2:09 AM

I feel so like a typical Singaporean today. While waiting for hw to reach amk hub for SATC, I wandered around the hub aimlessly after collecting my stuff and applying for the card and it was when I saw a long queue at a store at B2. Seeing that it's durian pancake and that they smell nice, and there's some time to spare, I joined the queue! So typical but oh well I didn't regret queueing cuz the pancakes were really nice! The durian fillings were rich and the person who was making those pancakes weren't stingy and gave lots of it! Nice nice! The pancake itself was nicely cooked/toasted/heated whatever you call that and very crispy too! I'm so gonna eat it again!SATC was funny overall it's not bad la quite entertaining! Caught Narnia two days back and it's v nice! Prince Caspian is very charming! hahaha and I'm finally gonna watch Iron Man on thurs! :) I wanna watch Batman too leh but got no idea when it'll be screened.
These few days seem to pass very quickly I cant really remember what I've done but oh wells plans for tmr, thurs and fri have been set! I think I need more time!
Okay watch this link! It's damn amazing! You'll be amazed even though it's in Japanese!
