I was bored enough to take little bit of stress from exam, and I got the result today!

My score for listening is 490 which I missed one to be perfect.
My reading... I am not telling the score, but listening and reading total would be about 40 points up without studying for it!

hahaha...

It's got 200 questions and really not the point of English level now for me... it's more about durability!

I just have to say that I started to love English since little and I know I will enjoy learning the words of English in the future too.
I just need to take time; slow learner but constant!

I know I will do better next time.
Cheers to all!

I just couldn't believe how he plays....He creats the beats, melody, and complete happy world of sound!!!

Goooosh, I am glad I started to get involved this four string small instrument in my life!

Transfer

Officially, company decided to transfer me from next month, means from next Monday.
I will be having Chinese boss, new operation, in different language...

I don't know why I tend to get to be picked...I was always like that since little...
I think a lot of people think I am good at trying new things.

Well, certainly it will be a challenge for me.

Typical weekend

Beside weekend chore, I cook, bake and enjoy flowers more in weekend.
These are the pictures from 2 weeks ago, easy pasta for lunch, baked banana cake, brought it to my friend's pool side BBQ.

That BBQ was special Brasilian churrasco!!!!
Really good meat, sea salt, and perfect way of cooking!!!!
You can tell how it was good by I completely forgot to take pictures of it!!!!

Cooking and swimming is so typical weekend for me :)
Both feels good!!!
How was your weekend???

Musical "CATS"

I don't think I've talked about the musical "CATS"!
Yes! I went to see the musical on 29th, April.
I wasn't really interested in the show, although I had many chances to see...
Since Singapore rarely gets popular ones like this, so I thought why not!

Photo was allowed to take without flash, so I took the picture of the only one theatre in Singapore; Esplanade theatre.
I was far from the stage, but there was parapet right in front of me, so I leaned on it and watched it without any obstacles.
And, my seat was the end of the line, so cats came over and patted me!!!!

In the middle of the story turned into boring scenes, but overall it was good and fun!
If I am allow to say my personal preference, I would prefer human story, not animal's.

Next one is coming this weekend, Ukulele meets Cello Concert!
I am REALLY excited!!!!

Weekend breakfast

Weekend, I get pancakes ;P
Thanks to my dear housemate!
