Back to Driving lessons....

After a BIG break from my driving lessons due to my wedding, moving home and exam, I was finally back to learning how to operate that mean machine called 'Auto'..... My first lesson back in the driving school was a compulsory lesson for the Automatic car... (i'm actually learning the manual) Cool!! Its really like what Mikka says.. an arcade machine... LOL All you have to do is accelerate or brake.. Reminds me of the Daytonas in the game arcades... keke... I was actually wondering to myself why don't they just make all cars automatic.. saves the hassle.. *chuckle* Anyway, last Sunday I was back on to my normal 'Manual' lesson... I really hate the slopes!!! Kept dying off there.. I actually got it.. clutch and accelerator perfect! Guess what? The handbrakes had to play a joke on me... It was more or less stuck and I couldn't release it.. When I finally did manage to move it down (after much pulling and tugging) the balance was gone and the car died... *sob sob* The instructor knew that it was not my problem so she passed me thru for this lesson anyway.. =P But I sure hope I don't get that car again for my next lesson again.... Tomorrow is next lesson.. wish me luck!!

Prüfungsangst (Exam Stress)

Will be having my Start auf Deutsch - A1 examinations on Saturday.... Super stressed out!!! Haven't had time to do much studying cos of the moving lately.. Hopefully everything will be more or less in place so that I can finally sit down and hit the books. Thank God for nice classmates... Have been borrowing notes and getting hints and tips from all over the place. Feel so bad that I can't join them for study groups. Just hope that everything goes well... 

Moving.... a whole new enviroment....

Have been a very busy week for me. Busy moving house... A lot of mixed feelings actually. Have had the old place for the last 24 years. A lot of childhood and growing up memories there.... But then again... you lose something you gain something too =)

The moving process was terrible.. We had the movers run 2 trips and not everything is cleared. In the end we spent a bomb and still had to return to clear up the misc stuff left behind. That was not all, when the furniture and carton boxes arrived at the new place, the corridor was more or less jammed pack with our stuff. Worse part was the lock guy was fixing up our main door so nothing can be moved in. We had the electrician, the lock guy, the carpenters and the movers here all at the same time. Can you imagine the chaos... *Headache* Everything is still only more or less half-done, that means unpacking is not possible. Can you imagine living in a dust and junk environment at the moment... Geez...

Have had 'mein neuer bester freund' (my new best friend) - the sofa for the last few days. My bed is here but we have no place to fix it up so it has to stay in its corner for the time being.
I guess the only one that is really having fun is my little doggie. Had to put him up at the groomer's place for these few days and from what I see, he most probably would have to stay there for another few days till the place is a little more freed-up. My mom calls his lodging - 'The Hotel'.. LOL
Hopefuly everything will be able to be completed within the next few days. I'm having my Deutsch A1 exam next Saturday.. Have totally no time to study... I really have no clue what will happen... *sigh* 'Ich habe viel stress!!!'

Party Party Party @ Mings


As our wedding was a small affair, I did not have the pleasure to invite my dear frens of so many years.. It was a pity.. However, I managed to arrange for a 'get-together' to officially introduce my Mikka a.k.a my 'Husband'.. keke.... Am so glad that he can get along with all my friends... That night we all drank ourselves silly.. Beer beer and more beer.. I brought home a 'Kaputt' German.. LOL.. Guess the next gathering for him would be when he comes over later part of the year...

Our Wedding @ The Carlton Singapore - 10.04.10


Finally, I am officially 'Mrs Bien' hahaha... sounds funny leh... keke...
Was a small but warm event. Busy busy rush rush day but... was worth it in the end.... *SMILEZ*
Niko - my photographer & good friend - picked me up at 9.30am to go over to the salon to do my hair and make-up. Started raining when we were just arriving... Geez.. Managed to make it to the salon 'safely' and got myself ready... My 'trigger-happy' dear Niko started snapping pics non-stop. Really have to thank her cos without her, there would not be so many nice pics to show... Arrived at the The Carlton Singapore at approx. 12pm (abit later then scheduled cos of the rain in the morning) and managed to do an early check-in.. The solemnization commenced at 12.30pm sharp. Short and sweet.. then... we were pronouced 'Man & Wife' keke.... The lunch we had at Wah Lok Cantonese Restaurant in the hotel was lovely. Have to mention that 'Yogi' (that's not his real name lar.. he's also a Michael.. LOL) is more than just a buddy.. He flew all the way over from Germany just to be one of our witness to our marriage.. Of course at the same time taking a short holiday here lar. He's such a cutie.. Shy and VERY nice.. Our bunny nummer zwei (bunny no. 2)... keke...
So, here are just a few pictures to share...

Remember these?!?!....

We are starting to pack lately cos we will be moving to the the new house in a couple of months. Didn't realize that we had so much to pack... from books to kitchen utensils.. My mom is serious.. she actually packed up all the 'emergency food' we had in the cupboard and left only a few packets of instant noodles and can food... Gosh!! Dad was packing up his bedside table and guess what he passed me? My two 'ancient' pagers from way back... Geez.. they are I think at least about 15 years old... LOL... never knew I had 'antiques' to my name.. hahaha.. Anyway.. Just for memories sake.. I took a picture of them..


To all those that still remembers the codes of "'1-177155-4' & '17-31707-1'" and many more.... Cheers!!
