Coffee to Tea

I like having a drink on my table while I am studying. Since I am trying to reduce coffee consumption (not very successful...yet...), tea became the substitute. Lately, I have been studying more than usual and more study = more tea. To give a variety to my drink, I bought more tea!!!

Now I have Irish Breakfast, English Breakfast, Berryblossom White and Iced Black Tea. I bought the last one just to try it out. The black tea turn out to be pretty good and now it has became my new favorite!!! It's highly recommended!!!

I am not an expert in tea but I just like the taste and I thought that you might wanna try out the Tazo Iced Black Tea too :)

Ok, enough about tea, I'm going to continue with my studies.

Happy studying and ganbatte to everyone who is taking the actuarial exam in less than 2 weeks time!!

Fail in making a date

I am having my Japanese oral test tomorrow. While practicing with Pei Ying this afternoon, I made quite a big joke when I used the wrong words.

Situation : I need to ask Pei Ying out this weekend

I wanted to say: Do you wanna drink (nomimasu のみます) coffee in the coffee shop this weekend?

[Instead I used みます which means to look at]

And so my sentence became: Do you wanna look at (mimasu みます) coffee in the coffee shop this weekend?


and so the conversation continued...

Pei Ying: When are we meeting?
Siew Gee: How about ゆうびんきょく (post office) ?

[I actually had どようび(Saturday) in my mind but I don't know why ゆうびんきょく came out instead]

Pei Ying: ???????


Gosh...I sure hope that I don't make these silly mistakes tomorrow....I am gonna practice practice practice tonight!!!!

Car sold!!!

Finally, I managed to sell my Ford Focus...although I sold it at a loss, but if you have been reading my blog, you should know the problems that I had with the car.

What's next? hmm...If I can afford a hybrid, I'll get one...if not...probably a Toyota Yaris??? We'll see.
