JE551 Spree Items Arrived!

I went to collect the items which finally arived from Hong Kong. Unfortunately I was going to be late so I cabbed all the way from Bukit Batok to school and it cost me $8.90. =/

I'm so happy with my new clothes! (They're all mostly meant for fall/winter season.)

What's Your Name's Hidden Meaning?

What Maria Shirley Means

You are confident, self assured, and capable. You are not easily intimidated. You master any and all skills easily. You don't have to work hard for what you want. You make your life out to be exactly how you want it. And you'll knock down anyone who gets in your way! You are usually the best at everything ... you strive for perfection. You are confident, authoritative, and aggressive. You have the classic "Type A" personality. You are wild, crazy, and a huge rebel. You're always up to something. You have a ton of energy, and most people can't handle you. You're very intense. You definitely are a handful, and you're likely to get in trouble. But your kind of trouble is a lot of fun. You tend to be pretty tightly wound. It's easy to get you excited... which can be a good or bad thing. You have a lot of enthusiasm, but it fades rather quickly. You don't stick with any one thing for very long. You have the drive to accomplish a lot in a short amount of time. Your biggest problem is making sure you finish the projects you start. You are the total package - suave, sexy, smart, and strong. You have the whole world under your spell, and you can influence almost everyone you know. You don't always resist your urges to crush the weak. Just remember, they don't have as much going for them as you do. You are truly an original person. You have amazing ideas, and the power to carry them out. Success comes rather easily for you... especially in business and academia. Some people find you to be selfish and a bit overbearing. You're a strong person. You are relaxed, chill, and very likely to go with the flow. You are light hearted and accepting. You don't get worked up easily. Well adjusted and incredibly happy, many people wonder what your secret to life is. You are friendly, charming, and warm. You get along with almost everyone. You work hard not to rock the boat. Your easy going attitude brings people together. At times, you can be a little flaky and irresponsible. But for the important things, you pull it together. You are a free spirit, and you resent anyone who tries to fence you in. You are unpredictable, adventurous, and always a little surprising. You may miss out by not settling down, but you're too busy having fun to care.

Christmas and Brownies

This whole post is nearly all dedicated to the Christmas season of Year 2007. :)

Century Square's main decoration.
[which I don't think is nice at all. bleah.]


Santa's Elves Tower in Tampines Mall.

Went to Suntec City too but didn't notice any obvious Christmas deco except for these environmentally-friendly created Christmas Trees which were supposed to be competed in some contest.

Tree of Hope. (made out of cardboard egg carton)

[My personal favourite: not only is it made up of the egg carton which is completely useless, it's also glittery and resembles a real Christmas tree.]

Green Gift.

Face Tree. (I've absolutely no idea where it got its name from... it's made from magazine pages)

The Subtlor. (made from the top of a drink can)


Strength 2 Strength. (kitchen cooking intensils included)



The Plastic Forktastic Christmas Tree. (yes, it's made using plastic forks)


Christmas Technolotree. (made from small computer chips)



My White Christmas Tree. (millions of paper shreds!)

[It's another of my favourite because it simply reminded me of a White Christmas and looks decent enough to be a Christmas tree.]




That's all, folks!


So, which one did you like? :)









Here are a few pictures I took in my church during the Christmas season:




The 'teddy bear' Christmas tree nearby the lift lobby.


The nicely-decorated altar.

[In case you've noticed the angel-girl, don't be mistaken, she's not my sister. Neither is the boy in green my brother.]

The Navity Scene.
I just can't help but admire its soft interior lighting effect...










Lastly, presenting my very first......















Walnut Brownies!

Okay. Because of the way it's shaped, it does look a bit like a pie....

But hey! Doesn't it look yummy to you?

It's really yummy too! *licks lips*

(It's my first time baking brownies so I'm quite satisfied at how it turned out!) ^-^
