I'm sunburnt & aching all over my body....

Another weekend comes & goes again! But tmr I'll be on leave. Hooray!! Well, I'm still left with 6 days of leave to be cleared by end of next month. So decided to take a break tmr & accompany my mama to shopping. Haha!! Haven brought her out for quite some time already, felt quite bad about it, so time to make up for it! =)

Hmm... have been quite tired & ermm lazy as well to update my blog more often. Haha!! So will be giving a weekly update instead. Heez~~

Tuition was cancelled on Tuesday again! Sigh...sometimes really get quite pissed off about it. Haiz...anyway, in the end I met up with Qing & WPC for dinner @ Orchard. It was raining heavily then & by the time I reached Food Republic, I was half drenched and my jeans weighed tonnes. Sickening...as everywhere was flooded. I think the funny part about the meetup was that someone whom I just met said that I'm cute. Ahaha!! Why am I always associated with the word cute? Hmm...I'm cute meh? I don't think so leh. Even someone burst out into laughter when I said people said I'm cute. Haiz... Why not use the word pretty instead? Wahaha PLS DO NOT PUKE! JUST KIDDING! Haha~~

Decided to skip gym on Friday and in the end accompanied LLT to blood bank for blood donation after which we went to Maxwell market for dinner. Then LLT went crazy over his CD shopping. OMG!!! Yah, CDs & movies are so important to him leh. And lately, concerts as well. Aiyo... Haha!! Immediately after I've reached home, got a call from GY, as she was somewhere near my home. So we met up for supper & chit-chat session. Heez~~ Had a great time talking! Hope you'll get the job soon. Then I'll fly over to US to visit u, ok? Heez~~

Saturday got up early, met up with LLT & friends at Punggol Marina for wakeboarding. I'm now sunburnt & aching all over my body. But it was a fun afternoon! At least I managed to stand up for a while on the wakeboard. LLT, u gotta try harder next time, ok? Haha~~ After a tiring afternoon under the sun, we rewarded ourselves by eating at the seafood restaurant there. Food was good, big crab! Haha~~ But my nose was useless, it's been runny for the whole of yesterday. Sigh... After that, went to play with Oscar for a while before going to catch the movie 'Music & Lyrics'. A movie with nice & simple story! Hugh Grant is great too. =)

Didn't do much today except for catching Disney on Ice at SIS. This year's theme is 'Finding Nemo'. Haha~~ This is one of my favourite Disney cartoon. It was a great performance. Really impressed by their ice skating skills, so cool! After that was home sweet home....

Coming week only gotta work for 4 days. Haha!!

A Happy Weekend!

Oopz! This week is a week which I've burnt a big hole in my pocket coz I've just bought a laptop on Thu. Haha~~ The purchase was easily decided in like 15mins? Impulsive? Ermm...not exactly. Coz I've already eyed on that laptop earlier. Haha~~ But it's just that me being a com idiot need some help & advise. Thanks to LLT for your help! At the end of the day, we bagged home 1 box holding the laptop & a few other big bags full with the freebies. Haha~~ Gotta thank my Titoudao for carrying the stuff for me. =)
Have been quite busy and tired for the last few days to play with my "new toy". Haha~~ Hope to get all softwares and stuff settled soon!

Managed to catch 2 movies this week. One of them is a free movie treat again. Heez~~ This time round I watched 'I'm a Cyborg, but it's ok' with WS. Quite a lame show thou. Maybe it bcoz I'm not a fan of Rain? Haha~~ Also managed to watch 'The Pursuit of Happyness' on Fri nite. It's a meaningful show. So how will you define happiness? Hmm... Earning lots of $$ yet it's a job you don't like? On a job you like & feel satisfied with but it pays u miserably? Sigh...being in a realistic society, I suppose most people's equation for happiness is Money + Material satisfaction = Happiness. That's quite saddening, but then it's the truth, isn't it?

Well, I'm quite happy that my weekends have always been well-spent with family and friends. It always gives me the motivation to get back to work on Monday and of course I'll look forward to the next weekend. Heez~~

Yesterday I've met up with Noorul in the morning to do chemistry. It's great to see that u like the subject so much. Heez~~ But then, don't neglect the other subjects as well, especially your maths & english, ok? After that met up with LLT for our usual Combat class. It's a fun class, especially the part where we have to run in circles. Heez~~ Can feel that my right leg is recuperating well, except for a little pain once in a while. Managed to meet up with Rain finally. Haha~~ Had a good dinner at Soup Restaurant and it so happened that LLT & frds came to the same restaurant as well! LLT power huh? Haha~~ Rain & I couldn't decide which show to watch after dinner, so eventually we ended up chit chatting at Starbucks. Haha~~ Nice catchup with interesting topics to talk about. Haha~~

I've bladed today! So happy!! Coz I've not bladed for >3mths already. Really miss it! Hmm...well, what I like about blading is the ability to go at high speeds and you can feel the wind hitting your face. On top of that you get to see the nice calm sea, feel the sunshine and see groups of people so involved in their activities, be it cycling, blading, picnicking at ECP. How I wish I stay somewhere near ECP. Haha~~

Yes, now the sun is back! Time to hit for outdoor activities again!! =)

It's March!

Another week came & is now gone again! Time really passes so fast, it's now the start of the 3rd month of year 2007 already! But it seems like I've yet to achieve much for the past 2 months. Anyway, work-wise I should be rounding things up for my current project withi this week, which means that I can start on something new & hopefully more interesting and challenging real soon. Looking forward to that!

Another coll has just tendered her resignation. Hmmm...it makes me start to ask myself what I want again. Am I going to continue in this field or should I switch to something else? Or I should further my studies. So what do I want? Well, yah, these questions have been popping up in my brain every now & then but till now I still don't have a definite answer to them. Sigh... Yah yah, I always tell myself that I should stop procrastinating & start have good thoughts about them. Of course gotta be more pro-active in getting things moving! =)

Hmm...dunno if it's becoz of my current project or having stayed in R&D for 2.5 years already, I start to feel abit sian over my job. Or am I just short a good break to get recharged again? hmm... I need a change to break the routine!

Weekly Updates...

It's been another busy week that I'm so short of sleep. But I've just taken a good time a few hours back, so time to blog! Haha =p

This week I only did 1 gym session on sat. Sigh... Skipped Mon's class to visit Glady at the hospital. Poor gal! Kept puking and was hospitalised. Glad that she looks well and infact very talkative during the visit. Hha~~ Hope that she recovers real soon! Work's so boring without her, coz there's no one for me to suan already! Haha~~ I missed Thur's class as well due to OT! Yah, rushing some compound like mad for the last few days, don't even have time for lunch. Got a little pissed off with SH as well. Sigh... Anyway, don't wish to mention about it again. In the end, met up with LLT to watch the crappy movie, 'Norbit', since both of us missed gym & were pissed off with work. Well, actually I'm less pissed off lah. LLT so pissed that he needs his "happy food" but which in the end didn't make him happy. Hhaa~~ So what does it show? U should change your definition/classification of "happy food", ok?

Fri went for a movie marathon. Yah, "forced" to watch 'Dreamgals' again, followed by 'Notes on the Scandal'. Haha~~ well, 'Dreamgals' is a nice show which I didn't regret re-watching, of course! But the overall sound effect wasn't as fantastic as the other time when I watched at The Cathay. As usual, I dozed off at times during the shows. Oopz...sorry, not within my control. The theatre was just too conducive for sleeping? Heez~~ Yes, this reminds me that I've won another pair of movie tix for this coming Tue. Looking forward to it! =)

At last managed to go gym on sat. This is my 1st Combat class since 3 weeks ago? At last I'm back to Combat class! So nice to see the familiar faces, the instructress. Heez~~ Of course now I'm more careful so as not to hurt myself again. Evening had a belated Bday celebration for SQ at Happy Pay Steamboat followed by ktv. This celebration was indeed a big group! 8 of us in total. Hhaa~~ Double of our usual group size! It should be a good sign, isn't it? Most of us had fun. Afterall, it's Qing's b'day, gotta give face & not be a spoil-spot, rite? Heez~~ Of course, since it's our dear gal's B'day, as friends we should do our best to make her happy & make it a memorable (in a good sense, of course! heez~~)celebration for her.

Again, HAPPY BIRTHDAY to both SQ & Noorul (both of u are born on the same day)! Hope all your dreams come true!

Today I was basically rotting at home for the entire moring before catch the play 'Titoudao' with LLT. A great show! Very funny, though I didn't understand some of the Teochew spoken but really enjoyed it!

Another week's gone again. Time for bed!! =)

My Second Vertical Marathon

Today I did my second vertical marathon! This time round we participated in the team event and the team members include LLT, SP, CN, bro & I. Yes! 5 of us were in the team named 'Hitch Hiker'! Haha~~ I guess everyone had fun climbing 60 stories of Republic Plaza, with my craziest bro chiong-ing all the way up the 60 floors, leaving we 4 old men & women taking our own sweet time climbing up the steps. Haha~~ Well, my right thigh is still hurting a little, so dun want to strain the muscles too much by climbing too fast as well (excuses! haha~~). Hhaa~~ I hope it won't get worse after today =) Nevertheless, the 4 of us still have the fun & motivation cheering each other, rite? Yes! It doesn't matter how fast or slow we are. At least we completed the marathon, rite? Cheers to all of us! =)

After marathon had a little "celebration" at Sizzler. Haha~~ Nice lunch & nice chat with you guys! Haha~~ It's a tiring day but nice weekend spent.

My 4 days of hols are over just like that?! Sob sob... Back to reality & time to pick up my organic textbook to read now! :'(

Start of my long weekend again!

My long weekend started today, or more precisely, the "celebration" actually started yesterday evening. Haha~~ I was made to postphone my tuition yesterday for the sake of the 3 ladies, Glady, LPP & Jo. But it was a great evening spent with this group of colls having dinner, playing pool and watching movie. I think I totally suck at pool game, but of course after yest's game, think my skills did improve a little. All thanks to Glady & LPP. Heez~~ It was a fun & enjoyable session with the 3 crazy gals! After that, we went on to catch the show, 'The Fountain'. Hmmm... the show has a complex story where Mr Handsome, Hugh Jackman, plays 3 different characters in 3 different time period. Other than the complex story which made me lost at times, somehow I also felt that "something is missing" while watching the show. Hmm...dunno how to express my feelings in words, maybe just too used to your presence and felt strange when you are not there. Haha~~

Today I was woke up at 10am by a sms. Well, actually wanted to continue sleeping but just couldn't get back to sleep. Hhaa~~ Anyway, I was basically bumming around at home the entire morning & early afternoon before joining the 3 gals, TS and Jo's frd at Mind's Cafe for boardgames. Haha~~ So nice to be lazing at a boardgame cafe on a weekday afternoon! Such a luxury!!! Evening we went gym.Yah! AT LAST I GO GYM!!! It's been a good 2 weeks since I last went. Yah, ever since my right leg started to ache, I've not been to gym. So sad... But still, my leg was not ready for the body combat class (I felt so), so I attended the body balance class instead. It's definitely a good start, coz my right knee feels less painful after the class. Quite happy! Hope it recovers soon so that I can start on my body combat and maybe join the rest for VM this Sun, and start blading as well. Yah, today's supposed to be blading day but was changed to boardgaming instead becoz of me. So sorry!

Hmm...sometimes I really think that women are real weird creatures. Mood can change very fast. I remember myself not in a very good mood in the morning, but in the evening my mood seemed to get better. Hhaa~~ Yah, I myself don't even understand why. Haha~~ Hope tmr will be a good day!

Happy Friday, everyone! =)

Happy PIGGY Year!

My 5 days of holiday just zoomed past without me realising it. Tmr will have to work. But then I'll be on leave on Thu & Fri again! Heez~~

So what have I done for the past few days? CNY eve was of course spent with my family, having reunion dinner & it's... STEAMBOAT! Kind of our "standard" reunion dinner but it's always nice & fun to do it once a yr. Yes, I love it! It's been quite a while since our whole family sit down & have a good meal together. Hope we can do it more often! =)

Day 1 of CNY was spent rotting at home for the entire morning and afternoon and my family went over to my cousin's place in the late afternoon. A nice gathering, met my aunt & cousins, whom I've not seen for quite some time already. Seemed like everyone has aged quite abit. Yah, come to think of it, I'm already in my mid-20s already! Sigh... But I still feel young at heart leh. Haha~~ In the evening met up with LLT to catch the show 'Ghost Rider'. Quite an interesting show. Heez~~

Day 2 of CNY was probably a "freaking" day for some reasons. Not a freaking day for me thou. Haha~~ But I supposed things turned out quite alrite, rite? Anyway, it was just another day of CNY visiting. But think I ate too much for lunch & suffered from indigestion. In the end I had a bad headache & puked. Felt really terrible then. Luckily after a good sleep last nite, I felt better today, though still suffering from mild diarrhoea. OMG! Am I really so weak? Sigh... :(

Day 3 of CNY, which is today.Had some guests, basically my mum's friend, second aunt, cousin & my dearest niece who came over to my place. Haha~~ So fun to start "cam whoring" with my dear niece. Ahaha~~ Late afternoon I went over to SQ's house for another gathering. Had a fun time as well! Thanks SQ for the invitation & the sumptuous dinner prepared by her mum!

Now coming back... TMR GOTTA WORK! Sigh.... But just for a day & then I'll have a long weekend again! Haha~~

There goes the year of dog & comes the year of pig!

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR EVE!!! Here comes the start of a long holiday! Yeah!!! My long holiday actually started yesterday and in fact next Thursday & Friday I'll be on leave as well. Haha~~ Then I'm still left with 6 more days of leave to clear by April. :)

Anyway, such a coincidence that BZ & WS both took leave for yest as well. So we 3 gals met up for our last min shopping, so happy that we 3 get to meet up on a weekday afternoon! In the end, only BZ & WS managed to bag something home while I returned home empty-handed. Sigh...didn't managed to find anything I like, so this CNY I'll go visitations with old bottoms. Haha~~
Hmm...BZ said that this year is a lucky year for Sagittarius. I really hope that it's true! Heez~~

Hmm...seems like I'm not into much CNY mood this year. Not that I always feel something during CNY, but this year I really felt NOTHING. Dunno why. Haha~~ Anyway, just enjoy this long holiday & wait for my ang pow to come! Haha~~ Anyway, already got some plans for next week, hope the weather will be good & hope that my leg recovers by then. I miss blading!!!

Haha~~ I've got something new for CNY today! A new hp!!! Got a brown K800i which I think is nice, yet someone said the colour looks like shit. Sob sob... :(

Now still waiting for my steamboat reunion dinner to start. Heez~~ Already feeling quite hungry now. Haha~~

HOPE EVERYONE WILL HAVE A JOY-FILLED CNY!!! CHEERIOS~~

Valentine's Day?

Today is V'day. Happy V'day!! So how did you spend your V'day? With your special someone? Heez~~ Today was a really busy day for me at work, got lots of things to clear up as I was on MC yesterday. Nevertheless, it was a sweet day coz I've received 3 "presents" today! Haha~~ A hearty big breakfast, a pack of choco & sweets and balloon sculpture. Love them manz, thanks to all my dearies!!! =)

Today I'm still limping. Sigh... Dunno when did I pull my muscle. Now gotta take a break from gym. Hope it heals soon!

Backtrack backtrack....

Yesterday I was on MC, I was basically sleeping at home the entire afternoon, partly coz my com simply refused to start up & kept producing a beeping sound. Argghh... So irritated by it. I need a new com soon! Anyway, met up with Glad & GF for dinner in the evening before Glad & I went to catch the show, 'Dreamgirls'. It's a great show. Think I'm going to get the soundtrack soon! Haha~~ Yah, this is also my 1st date with Glad, pre-V'day date somemore. Haha~~ Glad was so happy when I jio her to watch with me. Dunno why. Haha~~ But can say that LPP & Glad & I are pretty close now. Probably coz we 3 are equally crazy gals? Hhaa~~

Thanks LLT for jio-ing me to the charity gala screening for the movie, 'Protege',on Monday. Saw alot of stars! I suppose the brightest stars for the nite were Louis Koo & Daniel Wu. They really look great! It was a really nice & enjoyable evening spent dining & attending the screening.

Now I look forward to CNY!! Holiday, food, goodies & ang pow!!! =)

Sunday, February 11, 2007

Tiring but enjoyable weekend!

I suppose all my friends know that my weekend's always packed with activities. Haha~~Coz I love it this way! This week was no exception and was started off on Friday, where my colls & I went to Miramar Hotel for chinese ala carte buffet. The food wasn't fantastic, but the company was great! We had lots of fun chatting & joking and of course catching up with our dearest ex-coll, JS! Went for a midnite show, 'Little Children', after the dinner and thanks to LPP for acconmpanying me. Heez~~

Saturday was started off with our usual Body Combat class. Yes, Sat's class conducted by Sue is 1 which I always look forward to coz it's so fun! But my right leg felt a little weird that day. I could not exert too much pressure on my heels, otherwise my thigh will hurt. So I basically skipped all the right leg jumps & kicks that day. Haha~~ Met up with dear Noorul for chem tuition after that. Sorry gal to make u walk so much. Yes! I have a bad sense of direction and will get disorientated easily. Haha~~ And yah, don't keep going around telling people that I wanna bring u to Hotel 81, can? I got reputation one, ok? Haha~~
Had a nice dinner at Village meeting new friends after that. Haha~~ A funny session as well. Not as awkward as I've thought. Heez~~ Post dinner was another midnite movie again. But I was so tired that I almost slept through the movie. Oopz!

Yes, so tired & my right leg still hurts. So I've decided to take a break from gym on Sunday. In the end I met up with WK for shopping and I managed to get myself a dress! Haha~~ So happy!!! But I'm still short of some bottoms for CNY. Hmm...time is running out, CNY's coming!!!

Mid-Week! Life's getting busier....

At last I've survived till mid-week already. I seem to have lost the drive to work on my current project especially when I know that this project should be dying soon. Yet we still have to hang on to it for the moment. Even RH who just joined me felt the same way. Haha~~ So it's not that I'm in no mood to work! Haha~~ Seems like after the "death" of my current project, I'll be involved in one which is of a different nature from what I've done before. Hmm...still remaining optimistic. But at the same time, I really need to start thinking which direction I want to move into for my future. I should stop procrastinating!! Haha~~

Hmm...late last week I've began to make some changes to my life. Still trying to adapt and adjust to the changes. Changes such as re-adapting to my old Nokia hp, working out my busy schedule, juggling between work, tuition and private life, etc. I seriously think that time is not enough for me! Haha~~ But well, so far so good I guess. Haha~~

Nice to meet up with Rain yesterday evening. Haha~~ Yah, but tuition was postphoned from yesterday to Sun evening. I hate having tuition on weekend evening. Sigh... but what to do? My dear tutee seems busier than me. Haha~~ Anyway, back to the meetup with Rain. Thanks for the bubble gum and hp accessory. Heez~~ Like it very much, still got my name in it. Haha~~ Yah...wait for me to get a new hp & I'll put it on, ok? Haha~~

Oopz...think I've said some stuff which freaked someone out today. No worries lah, take it easy. U can do it! =p

Sunday, February 04, 2007

What a day! Unlucky Saturday!

Can't believe it! A day before things were going so well and it was a happy day thou the day was rounded up with a movie that has a sad ending. Haha~~ But yesterday, I was so unlucky. My hp was pickpocketed! I'm so sad now, coz I've lost all my contacts. What's more is that this the first time in my life that I've lost someting so important (I'm always quite careful with my personal belongings). SIGH.... :( Friends reading this please sms me your contacts, ok? Thanks!

So what exactly happened last nite? BZ, WS & I were shopping at Bugis St. Yah, as usual, it was quite packed with people. My hp was kept in the front compartment of my gym bag, and the compartment was basically zipped up so I supposed it was pretty safe. We were in 1 of the shops waiting to try some clothes and it was then did I realise that the front compartment of my bag was unzipped. I remembered me zipping it up after checking my hp some time ago so my first reaction was to look for my hp and of course I couldn't find it already. WS tried calling my no. and someone actually picked up my hp but refused to speak. I tried talking to the person but to no avail. We tried calling a few more times and even smsed to my hp but there was no response from the pickpocket. Think I was more sad than angry then, just hope that the person will be kind enough to return me my hp. Sigh... I really getting pissed off then. Trying to speak to the pickpocket nicely yet he still refused to return me my hp (luckily it's my dad's free handset and the joystick of my hp already CMI, otherwise I'll be even sadder!). Later on he switched off my hp. Sigh.. I curse him/her! HOPE THAT THE STUPID PICKPOCKET'S HANDS ROT!!! So now I'm trying to re-adjust to using Nokia hp again. Haiz... Broke, broke... I need a new com, a new hp. When will my bonus come? Well, I guess it'll be after CNY! SAD...

A Happy Weekend

An update on my weekend again! Ok, let's start with Friday. Haha~~ It's been so long since Qing & I last catch a movie together! I was lucky enough to win a pair of movie tix to catch the sneak preview of "Miss Potter". Haha~~ So happy coz we 2 gals have not catch a movie together for quite some time already. Yah, should also thank someone for forgoing the chance to catch this movie with me. Haha~~

Saturday's tuition was called off again. Sigh...yah, again! It's been 2 weeks in consecutive that the tuition was cancelled. Are the secondary school kids these days really so busy? Sigh... Anyway, brought Qing to start on her 1 week trial membership at PF. Hhaa~~ Brought her to Body Pump & Body Combat classes. She had so much fun, especially the Combat class. We had fun as well, just couldn't stop laughing at her moves. Oopz...Sorry. Anyway, it was a good try for this Missy and hope it's a good start for you to healthy living as well =) After the classes, did some shopping and went to attend Joyce's 21st BDay party. Got to see Oscar as well. Wow, he has grown so much bigger now. Think he still remembers me too.

Felt so tired on Sunday that we skipped gym for the day. In the end I went for a torturous facial session after my dental appointment. Why was it torturous? It's all because I'm a lazy woman (I admit it!) who refuse to go for regular facials and only do it once in a while when there's an outbreak of pimples. So the facial treatment was very painful (extractions and more extractions of the dirts!). I was practically tearing during the whole session. Don't understand why people say that facial is very enjoyable & relaxing. Think I nearly died in there yet I got no choice but to continue with it given my bad skin. Anyway, still went ahead to meet GY with my scarred face and got my very belated BDay present from her. It's a purple bracelet! Haha~~ Thanks alot, gal! We did abit of shopping at MS, I bought a pair of heels while she bought a top. Hhaa~~ Enough for the day, since I've already spent on my teeth & face earlier. We settled at a Japanese restaurant then for our early dinner at 4+pm. Think the best part which GY looked forward to was the dessert. Hhaa~~ We had a really good time chatting. Meet up soon,ok? Don't be so piggy can anot? Always wait for me to jio u. sigh..

Really a nice weekend! Hope next weekend will come soon again! Cheerios~~

Weekend is Coming Again...

This week passes so fast & tmr is FRIDAY again!! Hhaa~~ Weekend's here again! This week is yet another hectic week. Work-wise, hmm.. very very busy, have been trying to meet the goal of synthesising my molecule by next week. Sigh...so busy with experiments that now my paperwork is piling up =(

I'm now left with 9 days leave to be cleared by end of April. Want to make plans for hols (& use up my leave before it gets forfeited. Haha~~) but I've been too tired and also too lazy to do so. Haha~~ I must get things moving already!

Hmm...heard some stuff about a frd, a frd who I used to treat as a very gd frd (she claimed that I'm her best frd as well...) a few days back. Felt quite upset and disappointed that till now, she still don't think it's her fault at all. Sigh... so now she feels that for what we have done the same thing (so-called. At least I bothered to pick her BDay present personally. Sigh...) to each other, we are quit. If you really think so, why is it that you didn't even bother to contact me at all? Anyway, I know you'll stand strong on ur point that you r not wrong, but so am I not wrong. Another frd has asked me to give in, but y should I? Am I at fault in the 1st place? NO!! Think my greatest regret now is not what I've done for you for the past 7 yrs as a friend. I regret going through all the trouble to get ur BDay present yet you can still make such remarks. Chatted with RH abt it as well. She understood how I felt yet she encouraged me to take the initiative to talk things out with my frd. Yah, I got RH's point, she dun want me to regret forgoing this frdship few yrs later like what happened to her. Sigh.. So should I or should I not?

Ok, cast aside those unhappy stuff.

Monday had a funny yet fun KTV session with Glad, PT, Jo & Jrm. Haha~~ Jrm & Glad are the king & queen for the nite. Their voices are very gd! Haha~~ I was more focused on eating the buffet. Heez~~

Tuesday after work was gyming again. Did our usual combat and then we did Body Balance! Haha~~ Supposed to be a very relaxing, calming class with lotz of "lotus poses" but I think LLT looked more stressed than in combat class. Hhaa~~

Wednesday was a crazy Mambo nite. Haha~~ Had lots of fun seeing lots of interesting & funny people there. Even more funnier was that a guy actually wanna be my frd. Hhaa~~ Didn't pay much attention to the guy (it was dark & think he doesn't look too handsome as well. Haha~~) and didn't catch his name too. Hhaa~~ Sorry, such tactics usually just get ignored by me as I don't go around making frds with people easily. Haha~~ Like what LLT said, it really took him alot of courage to come forward (intrusion into out big group. Really daring!) but still it's really ... ...

So weekend's coming again. Looking forward to it! =)

Sunday, January 21, 2007

A not-so-normal but happy Weekend =)

In just an hour or so it'll be Monday again. Sigh.. Weekend always passes so fast, even though I really did nothing much this weekend. Yah, this is one rare weekend which I only went for gym with LLT & HC and a session of tuition, that's all. Very surprising, rite? Sad...dunno where have all my friends disappeared to. Anyway, I'm happy to be able to spend this weekend evenings "pie-ing" (coz we ate pies la! Haha~~) with my mum. =) Yah, feel that we have kind of neglected her coz we kids are not at home most of the time. So will definitely try to spend more time with her, especially when dad is on sleeping mode most of the time at home. Haha~~

Back-track to Friday... Had a meetup with sec sch gang and we went to Miss Clarity Cafe. It was a long wait. Sigh... All thanks to Ms Fishyfish for not making a reservation. Haha~~ Anyway, think it has been quite some time since we 4 met up. Seems like many changes are going on in our individual life! Everyone's heading in different directions, having different priorities, etc. That's part of life I think. As u move on in life, u'll start to see changes, but changes may be for the better or for the worse, rite? Hmm... as for jobwise, probably I should say that Fishyfish & Princess are heading in the same direction since u both are going to the same company? Anyway, all the best to u gals in ur new job.

Saturday & Sunday.... GYMING days coz NO LIFE MAH! Haha~~ Of course not! This is called healthy lifestyle, ok? No healthy lifestyle how to sustain your life? =p
This weekend's classes were very fun! Sat's Body Combat was intensive but really fun. New steps were introduced. Yah, otherwise I'll be real bored doing the same old songs & steps. I wonder if this change was only introduced yesterday coz there was some filming going on? Hmm... Anyway, I love the sweat-it-out feeling. Haha~~ We sweated so much that we nearly slipped (floor was very slippery due to our sweat. No kidding)! Haha

Today's class was tedious as well. Did 2.5hrs of workout today! Yah, 1hr of Body Pump & another 1.5hrs of Body Combat. Crazy, rite? But I'm still alive. Haha~~ Hmm... after < a month of gyming, I've lost 1.5kg! Wahaha~~ Ok, can't be complacent, gotta work harder & lose more. Same for U, ok? Haha~~

It's Saturday, at last!

It's Saturday, at last! For the past week, I've been experiencing quite abit of "emotion roller coaster", but luckily I'm now feeling much better already. Just hope that my friends will be more open to me & tell me how you all feel, don't hide ur feelings and emotions too much as well, ok? Coz I dun want to assume things either. Haha~~ =) Hmm...probably we are too similar in character (stubborn!) as well, so both parties refused to initiate & speak up. Sigh...

Haha~~ My friends have been pinpointing to me that I'm a too systematic person. Hmm...another bad point. Of course, being systematic is good, but being systematic in everything becomes unhealthy & inflexible. Yah, think I did mention in my blog before that I'm someone who is ruled more by my brain than my heart. It's an advantage when it comes to work. But if it's in relationships, it might be a killing factor.

Something interesting, also true about a Sagittarian (like me!) to a large extent. Hmm....So how's a Sagittarian like?

The glyph for Sagittarius represents the archer’s bow and arrow. Traditionally, Sagittarius has been represented by a centaur – an animal whose upper torso is that of a man and whose lower torso is that of a horse. Part of the lesson for Sagittarius is to learn to balance the needs of the man and the animal within.

Sagittarians are enthusiastic, energetic and keen to learn new things, but they can become bored soon after they have mastered what they are learning. Owing to their need to learn and to understand new things constantly, Sagittarians are natural teachers, as they are able to simplify a technique or subject without losing its essential qualities.

Being a mutable sign, Sagittarians are adaptable and flexible. They are usually straightforward, honest and optimistic. They love to travel and even a walk outdoors can give them a much-needed sense of freedom and space. They enjoy their most productive thinking when they are out walking.

Although Leos have the reputation for enjoying the limelight, it is in fact Sagittarians who really thrive on the stage. Whether it be upon life’s stage, through politics, business or higher learning institutions, or in films and in the theatre, Sagittarians flourish when given the attention of others.

Sagittarians prefer freedom to commitment, for freedom allows them to explore life’s possibilities, enabling them to seize suitable opportunities.

Sagittarrans are ambitious, forthright and honest, and they make friends easily. They consider themselves to be independent, yet need to guard against expecting others to assist them in their endeavours. This in itself is not a problem, but it is also not independence.

Sagittarians are usually optimistic and friendly. They are keen travellers, preferring the back roads to the well-trodden path, and are likely to take the most direct route possible when endeavouring to reach a destination. These people usually have a well-developed sense of direction and if they travel the same route everyday, they are likely to experiment, finding as many variations as possible.

Although Sagittarians can be clumsy physically and verbally, it is easy to forgive them for they usually mean no harm. When they are physically clumsy, they usually follow the incident with a bout of laughter, as it eases the tension for them. Of course, it can increase the tension for others.

The Sagittarian’s verbal clumsiness is also unintended, but can be every bit as damaging if you don’t know that they are Sagittarian.

Philosophy appeals to the mature Sagittarians, as does gambling in all its guises. Their gambling can take the form of betting on the horses, or simply leaving town in order to live elsewhere, without any job or home awaiting them when they arrive. Things usually fall into place for Sagittarians, as they are enthusiastic and full of optimism.

Sagittarians enjoy sports and healthy competition, and they make good sports coaches or team managers. They are goal-oriented, seeking new challenges to stimulate and teach them. They are suited to careers in teaching (either in universities or places of adult learning), acting, singing and sales, especially when the sales position requires them to travel from place to place.

The most effective way to get a Sagittarian to do something is to forbid them to do it or to dare them to do it.

Relationships
Sagittarians often derive more pleasure from anticipating the conquest of a lover than the conquest itself. Loving freedom as they do, they are apt to want to pursue more than one relationship at a time.

It is important to remember that Sagittarians are half human and half horse. They can display the appetite of a horse in more things than food.

Sagittarians prefer plenty of space in a relationship, which allows for varied interests and friendships. They are usually forthright in their approach to love.

In love, the Sagittarian is ambitious for their partner, and plans, organises and helps them to achieve their goals.

Sagittarians have the innate ability to see their partners weaknesses and faults clearly. The archer’s arrow hits its mark when the Sagittarian is called upon to change the negative behaviour patterns of their partner. Unfortunately, this ability does not extend to themselves, and they can remain blind to their own negative traits while perceiving the faults of others clearly.

When their partner needs help, the Sagittarian offers practical advice and enthusiasm, and is genuinely eager to help find a solution. If a solution is resisted or is not immediately forthcoming, the Sagittarian can lose interest and focus on something more rewarding.

Health
Sagittarians can experience difficulties with the hips and thighs, and they need to take care with their insulin levels.

They have strong appetites and while regular exercise keeps their weight down when they are young, they need to guard against weight gain in their later years.

Even when Sagittarians gain weight, they have a firmness about them. They tend to put weight on the hips, thighs and buttocks and, even when quite large, the buttocks do not lose their shape. The men tend to have quite a lot of body hair and they can be prone to baldness.

Sagittarians need to guard against accidents, cuts, bruises and burns resulting from their impatience and occasional clumsiness.

Negative Sagittarius
When negative, Sagittarians tend to exhibit increased clumsiness, both physically and verbally, and they can display an air of arrogance.

The negative Sagittarian can also be irresponsible, leaving behind a trail of debris as they focus on some goal as yet unreached. When they end a relationship, they don’t spend time agonising over the past. Tomorrow holds another opportunity and they intend to find it.

When negative, these people can attempt to take over their partner’s lives. They don’t necessarily mean any harm, but they can have all the subtlety of a road train when they think that they know what is best.

Negative Sagittarians can use honesty to suit their own purposes. They have no hesitation justifying their own actions and yet insist upon others detailing their motives. These people have difficulty being monogamous, preferring to seek out novelty through new relationship partners.

Sagittarius lesson
As they are likely to act upon their impulses rather than reflect, those born in Sagittarius have to learn to know when to move and when to wait.



Hhaa... I really think that I'm a PURE BREED Sagittarian! Hhaa~~

Appraisal Day!

At last I had my performance review today. Phew~~ Bossy is quite satisfied with my performance for last year but of course there's still many areas which I need to improve on. Hmm...one of the points he mentioned was that sometimes I'm too pessimistic already. Haha~~ I agree with him. Be it in terms of scientific research or when it comes to handling stuff, I think I over-worry sometimes. (Yah, although I always look very cheerful & happy-go-lucky, rite?)Haha~~ Probably that has caused mr to miss out other details already. So this is an area which I'm trying to improve on. =)

Other than that, really had a good discussion with bossy over our work for the past year and also what to be expected for this year. Yup! I must be more motivated to achieve more this year. Hmm...bossy asked if I intend to further my studies. A good question! Well, I'm still in the midst of consideration. Alot of things to consider before I decide on it. Haha~~

Met up with SQ & SR for dinner at PS just now. Had a good gals' talk. Haha~~ Very funny & interesting talk. We should do this more often, ok? Heez~~

It's mid-January

Ever since I started on my gym membership, my life has become so routined, yet fun & crazy! My weekday has been like: Work -> Gym -> Dinner -> Home. Time to start getting more life back! Ahaha....but I'm now a gym freak already! Haha~~ Have been doing Body Combat on a very regular basis (3-4x a week? Haha~~). Not yet an expert though (someone even laughed at my steps LO :'( Haha~~) but already know the steps & music well. Yup, gotta try some new classes before I get bored to death! But hope that I won't get killed by Powerstep class again. It's so embarrassing! Haha~~ Hmm...someone promised to try yoga class, rite? We shall make it happen soon! Haha~~

Sigh... the weather has been so bad lately that I've not bladed for quite some time already. Sickening! Hope the weather improves real soon, I need to go outdoor & I need the sunshine as well before my sinus problem kills me.

Hmmm... for the past few days I've been feeling quite tired, both physically and mentally. Yup, I want a break from everything, really. I wish that I got more courage to do what I intended to but in the end the idea was still dropped off, may be temporarily or permanently. Still trying to get my mood to pick up again. Maybe after Tuesday's appraisal? I hope so. Looking forward to see my past year review from bossy. Hmm...wondering what plans are lined up for me this year? Hope it's gonna be exciting & challenging as well. We shall see on Tuesady then! Heez~~

A busy 1st week of 2007!

It's already a week into Year 2007! Past week has been a busy week. Busy with New Year gatherings, swimming, gyming, tutoring & working. The begin of another hectic year, hope it'll be a fruitful year as well! =)

Ever since the commencement of our gym membership, think we've been really crazy to go gym whenever we are free. Haha~~ Yup, we really know how to make full use of our membership! Haha~~ Really enjoyed the classes which we have attended so far - Body Combat, Body Attack, Street Jazz & Body Pump. Although we really feel "clowny" during some of the classes. Haha~~ Just hope that the gyming & classes will make me slimmer & toner, not more muscular. Haha~~ Today we even went to explore the pool at Suntec. A nice small pool, which is quite private. A good place to rest & relax.

This week I managed to catch 2 movies, 'The Queen' & 'Stranger than Fiction'. 'The Queen' is quite an interesting story about how the British Royal family responded to Princess Diana's sudden death, but the story flow is a little slow. Caught a comedy, 'Stranger than Fiction', just now. Really interesting! It's about how the life of someone, which was meant to be fictious, turned into reality. Haha~~

Over the past weekend I've also been tasked to pick a BDay present for a friend, coz it seems like I know (or knew?) the best what she wants/likes. Hmm.. a friend whom I dunno if she still remembers me as a friend. Sigh... though I still feel upset and probably angry over how things turned out now. I believe that there isn't any misunderstanding between us, but somehow, the friendship just dissolves, sad that this happens. Anyway, life still have to move on, rite?

Glad that I'm on leave tmr! Yippie!! At last!! Although I still have no soild plans as to what to do tmr. Haha~~ Thinking of doing my hair but feel abit lazy too. Anyway, just want a day of R&R, hope I'll be more charged up to meet new challenges! =)

New Year Resolution for 2007

Looking back at year 2006, I think that I'm quite satisfied with what I have done and achieved although there's still many things which I planned to do but have yet execute them. Hope that I'll be able to execute most of my plans this year!

Intended to pick up a new language (probably German? Since I'm with a Swiss co) since early last yr but till now I've yet done so. Planned to do diving last yr too, but sad to say no frds is interested. But at least it's partially fulfilled as I did a diving try-out during my Tioman trip. Heez~~

RESOLUTIONS for 2007!!!

1. Be a happier & healthier person
On the overall, last year has been a good year, but many unhappy events occurred as well. Really hope that this year will be a better year & I'll be a happier person!
Hmm...also come to realised that I've taken quite a no. of days of MCs last yr, which is bad. Hope that this yr will be a rash-free & illness-free yr! Haha~~ Of course with the commencement of my gym membership, hope that I'll become fitter & slimmer! Wahaha~~

2.To seek career advancement
Well, my present bond will end in Sep this yr so I'm still pondering if I should continue in R&D, move into manufacturing or something else. Feel that my career will be stagnant if I continue in R&D without any upgrading. Yet the thought of leading a life-less post-grad life (with grueling hrs of research! Hahah~~) simply put me off. But definitely staying in this field has its advantages as well. Hmm...alot of factors to consider but hope to figure out what I wanna do in the next half a yr or so.

3. To spend more quality time with family & friends
Yes! Hope to spend more time with my parents and siblings (hope they have time for me too! Haha~~). Of course if we can go on a hols together will be great! I also hope to be able to spend more quality time with my close frds. Really enjoy all ur company & hope that you all have enjoyed mine as well. Heez~~ Cheers to our friendship! =)

4. Learn diving
Well, diving is actually on last yr's wishlist. Brought it forward to this yr. Hope it'll be fulfilled!

5. Travel to places which I've not been to
This new yr resolution is a "yearly renewable" one. Haha~~ Every yr I hope to travel to different places and get in touch with different cultures. Still trying to accumulate more chops in my passport. Heez~~ Yup, shall start planning for my trips for the yr!

In addition to the above mentioned, I always aimed to pick up something new each yr (to spark up my boring life!). Last yr I picked up blading and restarted on volunteering. So this yr what new activity should I pick up? Hmmm... Shall give it a good thought! Haha~~

HAPPY 2007!!!

HAPPY 2007 TO EVERYONE!!! =)
Hope that this year will be a fantastic year for all of you!

My last few hours of 2006 and first few hours of 2007 were well-spent with a great bunch (or I should say bunches? Haha~~) of friends. Had dinner at a nice Japanese restaurant with SQ, SQ's bf, MR & LLT before proceeding to Loof for chill-out and countdown. Not forgetting the fireworks which was simply magnificent! Had the countdown with 2 of my sec frds, SQ & MR (OMG! Realised that I've known SQ for a good 14 yrs & MR for 12 yrs already! SQ, still remember how we 1st met? Haha~~), SQ's bf & 2 other frds, ZH & SH, and the great bunch of PW people whom I only got to know last yr (2006). We had lots of fun chatting, playing drinking game & playing 'Truth or Dare'. Haha~~ think everyone went crazy during the 'Truth or Dare' segment. Haha~~ After that I joined PW guys for another round of chit-chat session at Mac before cabbing home at 5+am. Wahaha....I'm so tired now but really enjoyed myself last nite. Hope u guys had fun as well =)

Ok, think I shall break my entry into 2 separate entries today, 1st on my "top stories" of mine in 2006. Heez~~

After so many years of "psychoing" by my dentist, I finally went for orthodontic treatment last Jan. Yup! It's almost a yr that I've been wearing my braces and now my teeth are pretty well-aligned! Yes! I'll be able to remove my braces soon! =p

Went on 3 overseas trips & covered 4 areas last yr. Really enjoyed myself. Heez~~ Started off with Taipei trip with sis in late March, followed by a business-cum-leisure to Beijing & Hongkong in June-Jul and my last trip was to Tioman in Sep. Hope to be able to cover more places this year!

Started to go back into volunteering again last yr, but this time round I joined PW, doing more of youth volunteer rather than for the disabled community which I used to work for at RDA some yrs back. Got to know a great bunch of people, and of course not to forget, got to know LLT. Haha~~ Really dunno how we ended up as such good frds, who can basically talk about anything under the sun. And no matter what crap we talk, we can still understand what each other is talking. Haha~~ Yup, it's been great to know you! Thanks for being such a great frd! =)

Of course the year wasn't totally smooth-sailing. My favourite aunt passed away last April but fond memories of her still stay deep inside my heart.

Work wise I've finally moved on to new projects this yr! Although both projects are still TB-related. Haha~~ A tedious yr, especially the later half of the yr, which was totally crazy, as I have to manage the projects on my own and the chemistry involved was tricky. Nevertheless, I still managed to survive through and going through all the tough work had made me a stronger person. Yup, still alive & kicking now. Haha~~ Hope my current project works well & will end soon!

Last yr has also been a yr which I've gone through a few "friendship roller coaster rides". Hmm...going through such "rides" really made me think about alot of things as well. Thanks to my dear friends who have been talking to me and encouraging me during my "low tide" periods. Really appreciate all the support. Haha...many have commented that I've been too nice & too easy-going already, so I always get bullied. Haha~~ Isit so? Hmmm...

Long Weekend!! Time for a gd break..

Yeah!! It's super long weekend!!! Haha~~ 4 days of no work!! =)

Yesterday I was really in no mood to work already. Lab was pretty empty, just 7 of us. But bossy kept pestering me regarding my project, yet I continued taking my own sweet time. Haha~~ Ermm.. well, in fact, not my fault thou. The instruments which I need to use decided to go on strike too. 2 of them were down. Sigh.. So too bad, I'll have to work harder next Wednesday. Since I worked OT till around 7pm on Thursday, I decided to run off from work at 5pm yesterday. Haha~~ =p

Yesterday's plan was to attend the Belly Dance class but the instructress was late for half an hr. Sigh... In the end, I decided to leave the class half way through since we need to catch the Death Note Marathon. I find the movie quite nice & the Gods of Death looked really comical. Haha... Yah, they provided alot of entertainment for us. Heez~~ The story was good! Really enjoyed the movie, but I was too useless coz I kept dozing off, especially during part II of the movie. Sigh... not that the show was boring, but I was simply too tired already. Haha~~ So next time gotta remind me to have a cup of tea before going for late night show. haha~~ Think that will work for me. =)

This morning got up early to attend a CardioBlitz class with BZ. Haha... I was very tired but the class was very fun!! Basically it's a combination of aerobics & dance steps, really had a good workout today. BZ then joined me to meet JN for lunch. Haha~~ Really happy to meet up with JN! Glad that you still remember me and still jio me out at least 1x or 2x a year, but that's already good enough! Heez~~ Will make it a point to jio u out instead next time, ok? haha~~ Had a really nice lunch & chit-chat session.

Hmm...Wondering how the rest of my committee members are now. Yah, kinda lost touch with most of them, except for JN & a few others, since we graduated from JC. Thinking back, I think the time I enjoyed most in JC was during my harmonica practices (yah, I play harmonica besides trumpet! Haha~~). Still remember Mr Soon, dunno how is he now also. Hmm... really missed the time back then, of course there's sweet & not so sweet memories as well. Ahaha~~ But it's really nice to have JN, WS, Kelv & HG around then, who gave me lots of support. Glad that a few of us still remain as pretty gd frds who will meet up occassionally. Heez~~

Ok, enough about the past, back to present! =) Basically I was "zombified" due to lack of sleep. Haha~~ so went home to zzzzZZZZ after my lunch appointment. So boring, rite? But the weather's really nice for an afternoon nap. Haha~~

Year 2007 is coming!!! I need to pack my room (which is in a total mess now! Haha~~)
Happy New Year to everyone!!!! =)

I'm so so so tired...

Today has been a pretty tiring day and towards the end of the day, I my head started to ache, no idea what happened. Probably my boss has been bugging me too much today. Yah, I've lost count of how many times he looked me up today. I've also missed the Combat Yoga class which I wanted to attend today becoz I have to stay back for OT. Sigh... Worked till 7pm today even though my headache was killing me. ArghhHHH

Anyway, got home after that but even after having my dinner, my headche was still quite bad. In the end what did I do? I ate chocolate! Haha...Surprisingly after doing that and probably also after chatting with BZ, my headache was gone! Haha... miracle?! I guessed probably I'm too stressed by work can't take leave somemore. Chocolate really helps to relieve stress & relieve me of my headache now. Ahaha~~ I think I'm getting crazy now. I need a break! I want holiday!!! =(

Hmm...by the way, thanks to "DSPG" for delivering the dao sa piah to my place just now. Heez~~ Thanks a million! =) I'm also very happy that GL is back in Singapore for good!! Haha~~ Yeah, you've been MIA for the past 6 months, so glad that you are back. Hope we can meet up more often!!

One more day of work and the long weekend arrives. Yah, I can't wait for tomorrow to come! Another session of gym tmr! Hope to do the belly dancing class & to digest the chocolate I had just now. Wahaha~~ But too bad for u, LLT, this belly dance class is exclusively for ladies! Haha... anyway, think u had fun at yesterday's Step Hi-Lo class also, rite? Yah, lots of jumping, kicking, running which nearly drove us crazy. Haha~~

So tired today, time to sleep! =)

Sian Day @ Work

Today is Boxing Day! Yupz... back to work today. Feeling so lazy & don't feel like working at all. Today got to office an hr later than usual as I had to get my braces adjusted. Yah, it wasn't tightened properly during my checkup on last Sunday. Haha~~ So this morning I got the luxury of lazing in my bed till around 8am. I wish I was on leave today! Work as usual, kept trying & trying out stuff which didn't appear to work well. Sigh.. Boss seemed to have planned my work for the next 2 weeks already & the way he put it sounded as if I can't take any leave these 2 weeks already. Somemore he assumed that I'm definitely going to take leave during CNY. So sad.. hope things work well these 2 days. I'M IN NO MOOD TO WORK THOU I GOT TONNES OF THINGS TO DO NOW. Sickening, rite? Even Glad they all think that my life is very chiam. Hahah... Yah, I'll take it easy, so no worries, friends. =)

After work went to catch the movie, 'Borat' at Cine. All thanks to LLT for sharing his free tix with me. Heez~~ The show was very funny & lame too. Haha... Alot of XXXXXX scenes as well. Haha... but it's a show good for a laugh, especially when I'm feeling so sick & sian now. Haha~~ Oh, also got my X'Mas present from LLT. It's a snowball thingy which can be used as an ornament/ paperweight. Thanks alot! Like it very much, the message on it is meaningful too. Haha~~ But I didn't know that I got such impact on u leh. Haha~~

So tired, but tmr's going to gym again! Yah, gotta burn away all the calories accumulated over the past few days!! =)

Monday, December 25, 2006

Surprise! Very Surprised!!!

Today is Christmas day! Merry Christmas to everyone!!!

This year had a pretty quiet X'Mas. Haha~~ coz most friends were too busy with other activities and I'm feeling pretty tired as well. Anyway, yest morning went to TY to help out ST to meet her quota. Sigh...but now still left 17 to go, rite? Before that went for my usual dental appointment. This time round the orthodontist picked 3 colurs for my bands - red, green & blue. Haha~~ But the wire wasn't fixed properly and now it's protruding and poking my inner cheeks. So painful leh. Think got a few more ulcers already =(

After the checkup, I rushed down to Raffles Place to meet the rest. But as usual, late king was late again. Sigh... Anyway, luckily I was waiting with the other 3 gals and we were happily chit-chatting so it wasn't so boring. Haha~~ When the entire group of people had arrived, we went over to TY. I was pretty impressed with TY's environment. Especially their fitness centre. Very hip and disco-like! Yup, it is very different from other clubs which I've gone to. The entire orientation was very nicely done, all thanks to ST's frd. After grabbing some food and chit-chatting at TCC, LLT & I went off for our 2nd session at PF. Haha... very hardworking, rite? Still workout on X'Mas eve. Heez~~ Anyway, we attended the 'Street Jazz' class yesterday. It was fun and funny too. Both of us were blur as there were too many moves to remember. Haha... I think I was very inflexible and all my postures looked so stiffed and funny as well. Haha... LLT had to leave earlier to meet up his frd, while I continued to attend the 'Body Balance' class. Haha...it was a pretty relaxing class with lots of stretching to do. The last part was meditation and it was so relaxing that I dozed off & started to dream a little. Haha.. Luckily I was still able to gain consciousness when the class ended. Otherwise it'll be so embarassing for the instructress to come & wake me up. Wahaha~~ The instructress was nice enough to give us some chocolates at the end of the class since it was X'Mas eve. So sweet of her!

Met up with my dears, BZ & WS, for dinner but I was early so went to shop around 1st. In the end, I bought the pair of sandals which I've wanted so much. Haha.. at last I've bought them! Yah, spent again!! Anyway, my present pair of sandals is giving way soon, so I shall treat this as a X'Mas present for myself. Haha~~
Very happy to meet up with BZ & WS. Yah, BZ, it's so hard to date u out leh. Haha~~ think u r too much of a tai tai now. Do spare some time for us, ok? Also take good care of ur spine leh. So sweet of BZ to get me another BDay present from Bangkok (yah, on top of the original present which she has shared with the rest) just bcoz she couldn't celebrate my BDay with me that day. Thanks alot! =) We 3 gals had lots of fun chatting and catching up over dinner before proceeding to B&J for ice cream. Sigh...So sinful! Can see my 2 days of gym going down the drain already :'( Everyone's tired so Desm drove us home & yah, mama was so surprised that I got home before midnite & I even slept before midnite. Haha~~ That's why all my frds received my X'Mas greetings before midnite. Yah, I was very tired after the gym. zzzZZZ

Basically today I met up with Rain for porridge buffet. Yah, we've been talking about it for years and at last we got to eat that today. Heez~~ But poor gal! Lost her voice due to continuous ktv sessions again. Why everytime I meet u, u got such sexy voice huh? Haha... Still going for another session tonite somemore. Haiz...
We both were very full after the buffet, didn't eat alot but still very full, to the extent that I skipped my dinner again. Sometimes I'm really suspicious of my digestive system. Haha~~ Rain handed over to me my BDay & X'Mas presents. Haha~~ She didn't give me a 2-in-1 present but it's a 2-in-2 present! It was very heavy as well. Yah, so heavy that I even teased her, asking if she had given me a block of red brick. Haha~~ Or was it a handphone since she put it in a 'hello' red bag? She just smiled and asked me to unwrap them when I got home. OMG!!! I was so stunned when I unwrap the 1st present, my BDay present. I saw a "silver cow"! Gal, you really bought me a silver cow wallet?! Sigh...earlier on, you were telling me that you can't bear to buy one for yourself yet now you got one for me? I really dunno what to say. Opening the 2nd present, my X'Mas present, made me screamed another time. OMG!!! It's a box of birdnest. I couldn't believe my eyes leh. U really bought these for me? Yah, I know that the birdnest was a promise you made to me some time ago. But you really took it so seriously? By the way, the promise was only 1 bottle of it, yet now I got 6 bottles of it. Haiz...I'm left speechless again! I'm very very touched, really. But I felt quite bad that you are spending so much money on me. Sigh... Yah, we are close friends, but still don't spend so much again, ok? So next time treat will be on me and don't fight with me over it, ok? =)

Hmm...this X'Mas has been a simple affair spending time with a few close friends but I'm already very happy. Thanks to BZ, WS & Rain for making my X'Mas a simple yet joyous one. =)

A Busy Week, but it's Christmas soon!

Just 1 more day to X'Mas! Heez~~

This week has been a really busy week at work & I'm feeling so lethargic. I've been trying out lots of method to achieve my target but each time I'm just being thrown back to the starting point (felt that I'm playing snake & ladder. Haha~~). Sigh... I've been telling many colls and friends that I wanna take leave (yah, I still have 11 days of leave left!) but till now the plan has not materialised. Sigh... Hope things will work well next week so that I can take leave on Friday. =)

Ok, back track a little...

First of all gotta congratulate SN for passing her 'N' level! So now you can move on, gotta work hard, ok? As promised, I'll be ur slave from now on. =( Haha~~

Last Thursday was LLT's B'Day. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, again! Heez~~ Hope that u like the present (otherwise I an always put it on ebay. wahaha) and the celebration as well. It was such a coincidence to bump into RH at 'The Tapas Tree' restuarant. Quite a nice Spanish restaurant recommended by RH. Sigh... I was mistaken as the waitress by their waitress when I went over to RH's table to ask for her recommendation for dishes. So sadz... I wasn't even wearing any dress that was similar to their uniforms leh. RH was saying probably I look like Spanish? Haha...yah...so funny. But I'm already used to these. Yah, I'm very "multi-racial". There's people who think that I'm Malay, Thai, Vietnamese, maid (dunno Indonesian, Flippino or where else? haha) and now Spanish? Haha... Dunno to feel sad or what. Maybe I just look too "un-chinese". Haha~~
Sorry LLT, promised you a cake but in the end din get it. Pretty rush that nite oso. Haha... hope u din mind that =p But I've promised that will make it up with something else, rite? haha

Friday I was in no mood to work already. Office was almost empty as most of my colls were on leave for X'Mas yet I still have alot of things to do. Sigh... Yah, really dying to take leave now! Even rotting at home I'll be real happy. haha~~ Quite happy to receive a X'Mas present from boss. Haha~~ He got my favourite cranberry gift set from body shop. Thanks so much!!! =)
Anyway, met up with PW guys & gals for a X'Mas gathering cum gift exchange after work. Had an enjoyable dinner and gift exchange session. Haha...got a remote controller holder! After dinner was spent chit chatting before proceeding to St James for an "exploration". Yup, visited the pubs there, basically we hopped from one to another. Think after going to the cheena pub there, called Dragonfly, I'll still prefer a more english pub. Or maybe their cheena pub simply cmi. Haha... Got a nice jazz bar, Bellini Room, and another interesting one is Modiva. Really enjoyed the live band performance at Modiva, saw my old love, trumpet, too! I really really miss my trumpet!! Miss the good old days when I was still in my sec sch band. Really had lots of fun playing my trumpet then. Wah, I've not played a trumpet for 8 years already! But I still remember the fingerings. heez~~ So when can I get to play it again? I wish, I wish.... Haha

Today started on our 1st gym session at PF. Hhaa...it was tiring but pretty shiok! Think I've haven had a good workout for quite a while already. Haha...even longer for u rite, LLT? Haha... No worries, I'll make sure that you new year resolution comes true. Otherwise you know what happens, rite? Haha... I'll constantly remind you since u r so STM. =) Caught the show 'Charlotte's Web' in the evening. A nice show! It has a very sad but touching ending as well. The movie talks alot about friendship, about making promises. Yah, it reminds me of some things as well. Sigh...

Hmm...LLT seemed moody today. Anyway, don't worry so much, ok? I'm sure that there's definitely a solution to it, rite? I know that you didn't want things to happen this way also. So relax, just let nature takes it's course then. =)

Received a "funny" sms when I got home. Someone asked me to rate our friendship on a scale of 0-10. OMG!! I hate such stuff leh. To me, it's not possible to rate a friendship like that. Coz every friendship is unique on its own due to individuals' differences. Yah, everyone has his strengths and weaknesses. So to me, different friends of mine cater to my different needs. It's pretty unfair to just rank them on a scale. Well, I would say that I categorise my friends rather than rank them. Friends whom I can share problems with, friends whom I do certain activities with or just plain acquaintance. Oh well, the categorisation is actually more complex than just these 3 groups. Haha~~ So I didn't reply to the sms. But shortly after, I received a call. Yes, the friend actually called me up instead & kinda demanded for an answer. OMG!! At that time I was coughing really badly, but still, I was not spared. Yup, die die I have to answer that question! It is so the ... ... Yup, I was left speechless. Anyway, I was being very frank about how I felt about our friendship & what I think of the friend. Hopefully it wasn't offensive and whatever misunderstanding we had will be cleared after the talk. So scared leh, gonna meet the friend real soon... :S

It's Monday! Another week to X'Mas!!!

It's Monday again! Somemore it's a week to my favourite festival, CHRISTMAS!!!! Haha~~ So excited!! Although I've yet gotten any plans for X'Mas eve. Haha~~ But it's still a day which I always look forward to each year. =)

Haha...weekend has been well-spent. Started off with a hearty breakfast at Coffee Bean, really nice! We then went over to PF for the first time for an orientation. The place is really big & spacious! Still has a swimming pool, although it's pretty troublesome to access the pool. Haha... but it's nice coz not many people are there. Did abit of shopping after that before proceeding to RH house for house warming cum X'Mas party. Haha...we had lots of fun chatting & playing 'Twister'. RH even included a lucky draw segment, but this cheapo auntie only got all the household neccessities (like handwash, cotton stick, tissue paper, etc) as the lucky draw gifts. So cheapo leh! But we had lots of fun. Guess what I got for gift exchange? A fondue set! But sigh... coz I'm not someone who'll be in the mood to do a DIY fondue. Haha~~ Met up with Rain at Vivocity after the party. But she's late for 1+hrs. I was so bored that I went around shopping & spent 60+ bucks on my clothes and on Mama's too. Hhaa... Rain treated me to 'Dian Xiao Er' as an apology, but I still demand for my B'Day & X'Mas presnts, ok? Haha~~ Treated Rain to 'Ben & Jerry' ice cream after that. OMG!! So sinful leh, have been eating so much. My workout regime gotta start real soon! Went for a walk outside Vivocity after that. A pretty romantic place which allows one to see Sentosa. But Rain said romantic with the wrong person. Sigh... but it's quite true lah. Hhaa

Sun's original plan was to blade with LLT in the morning but the weather disappointed us. Yah, it was raining! So sad... I've not bladed for a good 3 weeks already. When will the weather get better? Hmm... Anyway, we decided to catch the movie, 'Eragon', instead. LLT also got his ring (which I owned 50% of it!) and he's so happy and proud of it. Haha~~ So treat it as ur B'Day cum X'Mas present, ok? Haha... Will remember the 27 pieces nuggets which I've promised you. Heez~~ Coz I'm too broke now, after getting a present for my very demanding friend. Haha

Next few days gonna be real busy at work. Hope things go smoothly! =)

It's Friday!!!

At last it's Friday! Have been pretty busy this week as well, work & post-work. Had sore throat earlier this week but now it has developed into a cough, abit of runny nose. Last few days my stomach felt funny too, and had diarrhoea. Dunno what went wrong. Sigh.. Probably I'm getting old already. Haha~~

Wed met up with WS to exchange my pinky bag for an orange one instead. Haha~~ Yah, think it's a more suitable colour for me. Had a good chat with her. Probably she should not worry so much. Gal, it's time to think for yourself, ok?

Thu had no plans at 1st but later was called up for "emergency consultation". Haha~~ that's what friends are for, isn't it? Thanks LLT for ur help too! Hope everything's going fine for them soon =)

Today. What have I done? Slacked for the whole afternoon!! Went to work in the morning with really hoarsed voice, really cannot stand it. In the end, visited the "bird doctor" (Glad gave him the nick! Haha) who gave me more than 10 types of medicine for just a normal cough & flu. I think he's trying to cheat my co's money. Haha~~ Unexpectedly, I got an MC, so I just made use of it. Went home aroung 1+pm and took a nap before meeting up with Jac for dinner & shopping. Haha~~ Think it sounds funny. Jac's staying in the same block as I do, yet today when we met up, I collected my B'dae present for last year. Haha~~ So I demanded for another present. Yah, for this year (just kidding with u lar!). In the end, she got me a tin of Famous Amos cookies as X'Mas present. So sweet of her, thanks alot!! Really appreciate it. Hope you like the present I got for u too. Must wear it when we go swimming, k? Hhaa~~ Pretty unlucky just now. Went Crystal Jade for our favourite porridge, in the end got scalded coz the waitress accidentally spilled hot tea (really hot!!!) onto my leg. It's was really painful. The waitress was apologetic, and she compensated us with 2 bowls of red bean soup (too bad, i've already lost my voice so can't eat that =( ). So in the end I returned 1 bowl to her. Lucky Jac, got free dessert when I got scalded. Sigh... Went for our shopping spree after that. Actually didn't buy alot of stuff too. Haha... has been aiming at a pair of sandals for very long, finally decided to buy but they have run out of white colour ones. Sigh... Anyway, it has been a really fun evening with Jac. Hope we can meet up more often, ok? Hope your migraine problem gets better too. Do take care, ok?

Alrite, time to wrap my presents. =)

Fun Session at The Mind Cafe =)

Today I was like a lost sheep at work. Sigh... No motivation, felt so demoralised because things did not work as expected yet boss will only be back in office on Thursday. Haiz..really dunno how to continue with my project now. I need help!!! =(

Went to The Mind Cafe with Glad, RH, Jo, PT & Mel after work. It's only later did I realise that they wanna celebrate my BDay for me. So surprised and really touched! Thanks alot, gals!! =) We really have lots of fun! ah, I'm already down with sore throat and a slight cough, now it worsened after all the shouting, yelling and laughing tonite. Haha... but it was a really enjoyable session. Hope we can do it more often! =)

Happy 24th Birthday to Myself!

In another 2hrs 41mins, my birthday will be over. I would say that this year's birthday has been a good & memorable one. Thanks to all my dear friends! However, there's some disappointments in some of my good friends too. Truthfully I'm pretty sad and disappointed with them, especially to think that I always do so much for my friends (at least I feel so. Haha). Sigh... Ok ok, I know BDay gal should sigh so much. Haha... Let me give a summary of my BDay celebrations! =)

I received my 2nd BDay present on Tue! Yah, a usual practice of my Uni gang of frds, I met up with LP to pick my BDay present. Heez~~ Well, I've been eyeing on a Swatch watch (x'mas series!) since the week before so I met up wif LP at Bugis to buy that watch. But sigh! It has run out of stock (too popular already! haha), so we procceded to Raffles City to get it. Really like the watch coz it's pretty unique!

My BDay celebration was officially kicked off on Fri with LLT. Surprise! Got a 2nd watch for my BDay, an Adidas watch. Haha...thks! Hmm...but was it LLT power again? Coz ur original pick for my present was pretty similar to the 1st watch which I've received. Haha...yah, both are white Swatch watch, both with square face somemore. wahaha~~ Anyway, thanks alot for the present, the meal at Giraffe & also the fun ktv session. Ahaha~~ But U've been very "GOOD" to associate me with some people lo =(

Sat met up with LP & my Uni gang for lunch and later half of the day was spent with JC group of frds. Really had a great time with you guys. Had lots of fun chatting & shopping! Wahaha~~ Really enjoyed the dinner session at Fish & Co with WS, SM & CTR, although there's just the 4 of us instead of the usual 7. Thanks for the present! Adidas bag!! But abit too pinky for me leh. Haha~~ Did some kiddy stuff after the dinner coz I think we were too bo liao already. Ahaha... yah, went to spin for those capsules (ti-kum). Wahaha~~ Think I'm the most childish among them lo, coz I appeared to be the most experienced "ti kum-er". Haha~~ CTR still sounds pretty stressed & upset. Hope the situation improves soon! =)

Well, not wanting to do my BDay countdown at home, I went on to catch a midnite show, 'The Holiday' after that. But there was a miscommunication. Haha...someone's waiting at The Cathay while SM & I were at Cathay Cine. So who's fault is it? Not solely my fault leh. So the 1st few mins past midnite was spent arguing over who's fault isit. Sadz...

Think I was already half-dead by Sun, coz haven been clocking much sleep hours for the past few days. Haha~~ met up with SQ & sec gang for ktv. But think i'm already on the verge of losing my voice and also too exhausted to be in the mood to sing. Haha...anyway, it was an enjoyable session. Yah, also received my 3rd Adidas present, a jacket! Wow, somehow I become an "Adidas gal" this year. Haha~~ Thanks for the cake as well, but don't get me cream cake next time hor. I don't take cream cakes leh. Haha~~

Really happy that many friends still remember my birthday. Thanks to all! Actually just a simple sms from you guys is already good enough lo, need no presents. Especially LN! Although we hardly keep in touch now, I'll definitely receive a BDay msg from you each year. Yes, it's been 8 years already! Felt so bad, coz till now I still dunno when's ur BDay & you refused to tell me. Sigh..

So now my BDay's over but got another frd's BDay coming. Oh no! A very demanding frd leh... So what present to get? *Headache* Hmmmm...

Counting down to my Birthday!

Last weekend was spent with all my Woodlands friends. Haha.. Sat met up with WK for a good catch up session & some shopping. I've also received my 1st birthday present from WK. Thanks alot!! Really like that pair of earrings, and of course the chain watch, even though I don't use chain watch. But it's really quite unique. Heez~~

Sun went Sitex at Expo and the place was really crowded. So we left soon after getting what we wanted & headed for Woodlands. Hhaa...really lucky to bump into/ meet all my Woodlands friends that day! So basically I met up with 4 Woodlanders in a single day! Heez~~ Such a coincidence, rite?

Today's a little boring at work. Nothing much to do or rather dunno how to go about doing my proj, especially since bossy's on MC today. Oh, got back the audit results (like getting report book lor...haha!) and big boss said that I've scored the best! Hhaah...so heng leh, coz I cleared my paperwork at the very last min yet I managed to perform quite well for it! *Proud* haha~~

So practically I was rotting in office most of the time today. Haha~~ Hmm...actually alot of thoughts going in my mind too. Alot of things to think about lately, but the more I think, I think the more vexed I feel. Sigh...

Hmm...birthday's coming! Counting down to it, still got 6 more days to my 24th birthday! OMG!! Another year older already :'( It's really time to think carefully about what I want for my future. Guess I'm too stressed up lately, didn't really think much about what I want and how I want to celebrate my Bday this year. Anyway, I'll leave all plannings to my dear friends. Haha... So I'll just sit down & enjoy myself, ok?

Hope that I won't continue to kill too much of my brain cells. Haha~~ Have a great week ahead, guys! =)

Finally it's weekend!!!

This week has been a pretty tough week at work, and I'm expecting things to get tougher next week coz RR (the additional pair of helping hands) won't be around next wk & it's my deadline! Anyway, I'm already immuned to the word 'deadline' since the last proj, so not as stressed up as when I was doing the previous proj. Haha... So to make myself happy, I shall enjoy all I want this weekend before bia-ing again! =)

Although I feel less stressed up for this proj, I'm still stressed up lah coz there's so many stuff unsettled & I really feel so helpless at times. Sigh.. So I can be abit more grouchy and PMS-sy lately. Haha.. Lots of lunch-ins and OT this week, but still managed to squeeze in some post-work activities. Or else I think I'll go crazy lor. Haha...

Met up with SQ for dinner on Tue, and in the end, WPC joined in too. I was supposed to get a belated bday present for GY, so they both tagged along. Hhaa... The picking of present for GY was pretty fast! Coz I already know what to look out for the moment I step into GY's favourite shop and with some advice from WPC (I think he knows all the gals' stuff/shops more than I do lor! Haha), I got GY a wallet. Heez.. Yah, SQ was too busy lovey-dovey over phone & had forgotten my objective for that day's meetup. Sigh.. Anyway, it was a good meetup, coz I managed to buy my present, managed to "counsel" SQ abit (though she seemed to turn a deaf ear and said that I'm siding him. Sigh) and got a pack of Famous Amos cookies with courtesy of SQ (I'm afraid of growing fat oso leh, but how can I turn down SQ's offer? Haha) =)

Finally, managed to catch 'Casino Royale' on Wed. But not the Gold Class seats which we agreed upon earlier. Coz I find it pretty ex leh although u said it's meant to be a treat which u owe me but y huh? Thanks anyway =) Haha...Ok, we shall watch it some other time when there's gd shows & special occasions lah. Or else u give me the $$ oso can. Wahaha~~ Overall it's a pretty good show, just a little overdosed with James Bond romance but too little of actions which I'm looking for.

Thu was exercise day! LLT & I went swimming and we swam 16 laps! Haha.. it's such an achievement although we did not complete the intended 20 laps. Hmm...probably we should make it a point to swim once a week and in order to fulfil one of my wishes and ur yearly objective as well, u gotta be my coach for tread water, ok? Haha~~
After the good 16 laps was a sinful indulge at Mac. But LLT was more sinful than me coz he ate more. Wahaha

Last nite was my company's annual D&D. But this year's was abit boring. The theme for this year is 'Hawaiian Luau', but no gals dressed up in coconut husk leh. So sad.. Haha~~ I guess the part that I like most about this year's D&D is that I won the 4th prize in the lucky draw!! Wahaha... 100 bucks Taka voucher!!! So I can start thinking of what to buy for myself now!! Heez~~ This year RH, Glad & I have been pretty lucky. All 3 of us won a prize each in the lucky draw. Last year we 3 went home empty-handed. Think Glad is the happiest coz she got the 2nd prize, 400 bucks worth of voucher. But she gotta dance to the stage to get her prize. Haha..it was so funny! We had lots of photo shots after the dinner (which ended really early!), wanted to take more but decided to leave coz there's this very extra person who behaved as if she had championed in a beauty pageant. Haha
Supposed to meet up at 11pm for movie but someone was late. Sigh...think I'll start taking note of how many times I've waited for u alr. Haha.. Felt awkward to be in my hawaiian-like dress in the middle of the nite. Seems so out of place in town. haha.. coz pp might think I'm nuts to dress so beach-like at nite. wahaha~~ Oh, watched 'Tenacious blar blar...' last nite and it's a really lame show. I almost dozed off. haha.. Yah, lots of horny jokes (and I've already heard lots during the D&D earlier :S)

Anyway, today got up quite early to collect my passport at ICA. I was the 98th person in the queue so I thought it gonna take quite some time before it's my turn. But it turned out that I only waited for about 1/2 hr and everything's settled! Heez.. so tired after that and came home to zzzZZZ before meeting WK later.

Yah, I'll enjoy myself, do all the crazy stuff this weekend before the torture starts again..

A busy & tiring Week!

Monday's over!!! Tired, tired... It has been a tiring day, or rather, last week was tiring too, and yah, this week gonna be likewise. Today I worked til 8+pm (yah, till they shut down the air-con & I have no choice but to leave…sigh..) yet I’ve not finished clearing my paperwork =( Sigh… I hate audits! Especially when I’m so busy doing “one-woman show” for my proj. Yah, bossy just informed me today that I have to produce 150mg of the material by THIS FRIDAY!! I only got 1 pair of hands leh.. :S He promised to have another FTE to help me out. But when will it be?
What’s more? Some people keep coming to bug me for this & that chemical. I’m like their chemical inventory now lor…
Sigh… I need another hols soon!! Haha

Ok, cast work stuff aside for now. Last week I’ve been pretty busy too, besides work. My post-office hrs was packed since Tue. Well, Tue went to catch the show ‘Step Up’ with LLT. A great show, makes me feel like dancing so much now! Hhaa…after the movie I was brought to a 24-hr café called ‘Mr Bean’. Hey, don’t be like me to think that it’s the soybean milk shop, ok? Haha…it’s a café selling mainly western food. I quite like the sausages there. Thanks LLT for the gd recommendation! Nice place to hang out. Heez =)
Wed evening had dinner with Qing and WPC (thks to LLT for giving him this nick lor…wahaha) joined us too. Went to a pinky, girlie café called ‘Miss Clarity Café. Haha…the shop isn’t really pinky, it’s the webpage that’s very pinky! Haha~~ The food was pretty good too! Qing loves the cheesecake, but I found it too milky & cheesy for my liking. Anyway, it was a nice meetup with Qing and new frd, WPC. Haha~~
Thu evening was spent ktv-ing with the almost voiceless Rain. Alemak! Losing voice alr still wanna sing ktv? I almost laugh to death lor. Should have made Rain sing Ah Du’s songs. Wahaha…
SG & Ade actually jio me out to watch 9:56 on Friday. But kinda strange for me to tag along with the lovey-dovey couple leh. So I dragged the always-say-he-is-bored LLT along! Wahaha… In the end he got misunderstood for being unfriendly. Sigh… yah lor, y u behave so dao huh? My fault too, didn’t bridge the conversation. Hmm… but Ade, u all asked me out leh, so shouldn’t u all do the talking too? Wahaha… So now how to redeem urself huh, LLT? ROCHESTER lor… Hha…else ur reputation will go into the open sea not just down the drain alr. Wahaha.. Ok ok, both parties just gotta take it easy, k? It’s really a misunderstanding only =)

So since Tue, I’ve been going home ard 12midnite. So tired!! Hhaa... and mama has been nagging & nagging. Nvm, just let her nag lor. Haha

Weekend’s been tiring but enjoyable as well. Sat was a blading session with a mixture of different grp of frds. Well, yup, pretty complicated leh. Haha… brought a “toddler” along, so we gotta take turn to “babysit” her. Wahaha.. But it’s an enjoyable blading session (thou it was abit short! Haha) & gathering. After blading LLT & I went off to the Sports exhibition at Suntec. Yah, SPORTS exhibition, not SEXPO, ok? Haha… Yah, signed PF, so now I’m bonded for 2.5yrs… But was quite happy to have signed up, I’m interested to try out their dance class, hot yoga & to think that their outlet at Suntec has a swimming pool!!! Wahaha… Burnt a bigger hole in my pocket by buying a backpack too. Haha… But I’ve been looking for a big enough backpack for quite a while already. Somemore it’s cheap! Haha…Yah, haven bag so much things home for very long liao. Heez =) Watched my 3rd movie for the week, ‘Happy Feet’. Hhaa…like the baby penguins!! They r so cute!

Sun had my usual dental appointment, but I managed to go for a short swim early in the morning. So shiok! I haven swim for 1+ mth I think. Haha… After Sat’s blading + Sun’s swimming, I got tanner again! Haha~~ Oh, my orthodontist said that I can remove my braces soon! That’s very fast!! Coz I’ve only worn it for 11 mths. Haha… Jac, U must be very jealous of me, rite? Heez.. Sun afternoon had a round of ktv with JC frds to celebrate Cat’s bdae. Post ktv was our usual gossip session. Sigh…heard happy, shocking as well as unhappy stories from the gang. Haiz… Really hope that ur problems will be solved soon, gal. =)

P.S. Hmm…I really don’t wish to make any wild guesses on what make u feel so unhappy today. But hope you’ll hold your promise & tell me next wk, k? Else you know what to expect…wahaha

Christmas is Coming!!! =)

Weekend is gone again! This weekend has been a not-too-busy yet not-too-free one. But overall I’ve enjoyed myself =)

Ok, starting with Friday. Boss was back from his diving trip. He was very excited & kept boasting about it. So envious of him! I wanna learn diving too!! But I’ve been procrastinating it, also bcoz most of my frds aren’t keen about it. Sigh… Anyway, glad that Boss had fun, coz this means that he’ll be in a very good mood. Haha…so although I did not manage to get what he had wanted by the due date, he didn’t get mad. Well, of course I did try hard to achieve his goals, but still failed! Still, I did defend myself by explaining what happened and provide solutions to the problems, ok? Haha~~ After work I went to the ulu Skatelines at Paya Lebar fix my blades. Basically just bought a new set of wheels which cost me 105 bucks!!! Now I’m 105 bucks poorer :’(
Well, but have to change the wheels coz my present set of wheels are too big for me & it’s tough to maneuver. Yes!! I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve fallen while wearing my pair of blades! I hope it’s better with the smaller wheels. Will try them on next Sat. Haha

Didn’t do much on Sat. Sleep & eat most of the day before I decided to pack my room. Hhaa…yah, packed my wardrobe to make space for more new clothes mah! Oopz!!! Haha…Well, CNY’s coming, rite? Wahaha.. Didn’t realize that there’s so much packing & ironing of clothes to be done! In the end, I was slightly late to meet WG and the rest. Yah, yesterday was RH’s wedding banquet. Congrats to u & ur hubby!! RH looked really pretty yest evening. Heez… But she’s a little too nervous already. Haha~~ This alcoholic got herself so drunk and high towards the end of the dinner, OMG!! Haha… We thought she could hold her liquor, or at least much better than her hubby, but in the end… … Haha… Anyway, the dinner was enjoyable, especially with my Teochew clan bros beside me. Very entertained! Haha.. But the food and especially the service kinda suck. The waiter actually used his hand to hold the spoon of the ladle. YUCKS!!! Yah, can u imagine how lousy the waiter was? I think he felt quite stressed serving my table too, coz there’s a few ang mohs. In the end my big boss asked him to leave the serving to “us”. Yah, his “us” = ME!!! Yesh, he was so "nice" to make me the waitress instead. So mean of him, rite? Sigh… =(
But one thing for sure! My waitressing skill is much better than that waiter. Haha… =)

Dinner ended pretty late last nite & this morning had to get up early for the vertical marathon. Nearly couldn’t get up! Haha.. Simply can’t imagine myself climbing up the 73-storey high Swissotel. But in the end, we made it!! I’ve clocked a timing of 18:20 min. Though my timing wasn’t fantastic, I’m still quite proud of myself. Wahaha.. Especially given that I’ve been quite sick for the past 2 wks and didn’t really train up, it’s not bad already. Haha… Yah, have to admit that it was tough, but it’s fun too. My legs were a little wobbly after the climb, but still managed to go shopping with Ade in the afternoon. Haha… went Orchard and we were like 2 siao gals crazy over taking pics of x’mas tree & some of the decorations outside Paragon. Too bad we didn’t bring camera so could only use Ade's hp. Next time must bring camera & take pics in the evening. This year’s x’mas lightings seem much better than last year’s. Although the decorations are abit too gold. Haha... But it definitely brings out the festive mood. So happy, x’mas is coming again!!! Yes, I love x’mas!! 1 more month to x’mas!!!! =)

How Do You Spell Dhoby Ghaut??

Yest morning I had a small bet with Glad. Haha… We were arguing over the spelling for ‘Dhoby Ghaut’. I insisted that there’s 2 ‘b’s in the word ‘Dhoby’ while she claimed that there’s only 1 ‘b’. Ok fine, so we betted for yest’s lunch. Hmm... I goggled & realized the spelling to be DHOBY GHAUT!! Arghhh~~ I was wrong & had lost the bet :’( But then only partially. Hhaa… coz both of us got the spelling wrong. I spelt th word as ‘Dobby’ while Glad spelt it as ‘Dobly’. Oh man, our spelling sucks!! But worst of all was JS who spelt it as ‘Doubt Court’ and we almost died from laughing! Haha… So afterall, I only lost part of the bet, & treated Glad to a drink instead of lunch. Haha~~

These 2 days I got some work to clear before boss returns tmr, but just don’t feel like doing, or should say that sometimes I dunno what I’m doing either. Haha… Anyway, just can’t wait to clear my present project. Hope these screwed up projs won’t affect my performance this year by too much. God bless me please! Haha

Today went for Cali’s boxercise class with Ah Bao. It was fun!! I have not had such an intensive cardio workout ever since I was down with rashes and later gastric probs. Yes! I love the sweat-it-out feeling!! I know I sound nuts, but I’m serious!! Coz it makes me feel so refreshed and recharged, thou tired. Haha~~ But we were pretty unlucky to be pestered by the people there. Hmm… Seems like I’m much more “heng” when I went with LLT coz we never got pestered. Heez~~ After which we went to Lao Pat Sat for our dinner/supper. Yah, the rojaks were nice thou a little pricey. Had a real gd time chatting & chatting. Yah, Ah Bao, do leave some time for ur frds hor, not all ur time for ur Desm. Haha~~ Great chat & of course great discussion about someone. Hmm… the someone who always made it as if I’ve offended her somehow (but I’m really clueless as to what I’ve done to offend her!!!) Luckily Ah Bao, Ade, Sze are on on my side. Thanks a lot for ur understanding and support! Hmm… dunno y that someone has became so weird recently. I’m really VERY SCARED of her now! I just don’t understand. After being frds for so many years, she can’t even take small jokes, then how is she going to make new frds? Life’s so short, if one has to take everything so seriously, I think it’s torturous, for himself as well as for the people ard him. I think that eventually, she’ll just find all her frds drifting away from her. But what can I do now? I know the misunderstanding is getting more serious now. But I’m really lost! No idea what I can do. Sigh… Hope there will be less awkwardness when we meet up again. I really hope so!

An interesting weekend. Almost got "MORE INTERESTING"...

My stomach has been churning non-stop for the past 3 days. Besides that, it's very bloated too. Sigh... dunno why there's so much air/gas in my stomach. On top of the above mentioned tortures, I've been suffering from diarrhoea now. Yah, my constipation became diarrhoea now! :S

Anyway, today I feel so much better compared to the last few days coz the bloatedness was gone! Haha...was thinking if it's a result of yest GB's excursion?Too many eye candies there liao! But too bad, they are XXX. Sigh... Wahaha~~ Anyway, yest was a fun-filled saturday. Attended blading class as usual in the morning to fine-tune my swizzle. Evening was a gathering with PWAL gang to catch 'The Little Shop of Horrors' and the GB excursion. Haha... the musicial was nice & funny. Really enjoyed it! Especially the Dim Sum Dollies, their performance was marvellous! Post program was an excursion to GB. I guess everyone's was excited, especially the gals coz it was such an eye-opener. Ahaha...but I think someone was freaking scared, rite? Ahaha...no worries lah, got 6 sisters to protect u mah... Haha~~

Well, sorry to PY and gang that I couldn't join in for the bday celebration this round. Hope you all had fun, though I wasn't around. Haha~~

Didn't do much today except for trying hard to clear my level 1 blading lessons. Haha... At last, I've cleared!!! But lost count of how many falls I had during the morning session of evaluation. Sigh.. all I could say is that the tester was DEMONIC!!! Luckily the afternoon's tester was alot more lenient, or I should probably use the word HUMANE. Haha... Well, maybe bcoz it rained quite heavily before that & I was the only 1 doing the evualation. So I've passed!!!! Haha =) But it's really tiring to blade in both morning & afternoon!

Monday's coming again, hope that things run well for the rest of the week for all!! =p

I'm really on MC!!

Sigh... I thought that I could have survived the day after paying a visit to the lousy doc yest nite but eventually, I'm still on MC today! Yah, should have expected that, since she's a lousy doc. Haha~~ Anyway, this morning nearly fainted again! Felt giddy when I was brushing my teeth but luckily mama was ard. Phew!! Almost went to hospital's A&E, but in the end I felt much better, so waited to see the GP instead. So scary!! I thought I'm going to die you know? I'm barely 24 years old leh, if die liao, how? Sigh..probably I'll start haunting my family and friends to fulfil my wishes then. Wahaha

Anyway, this doc definitely gave a better diagnosis than the CMI one yesterday. Felt better after taking his med, thou my stomach is still churning and my appetite haven quite improved. But at least my rashes are gone! Haha...at last!! =) Basically I've been sleeping and sleeping for the entire day. Now I feel like sleeping again...zzzZZZ

I wonder how much work would have accumulated when I return to office tmr. ArgghHH!! And boss's gone tmr! So envious of him. He's going to Sabah for diving!

What happened to Me?

Well, after a gd clarification, the misunderstanding has been cleared. I'm not the unreasonable sort, I listen to explanation, ok? Hahaa

Today hasn't been a really good day for me. Early in the morning I saw that my rashes had worsened. OMG! It's scarring my neck and arms. Sigh... Must be my itchy hands which scratched the rashes in the middle of the nite again. =( Should have tied them up! Haha... Also, I have been constipating for at least a couple of days already (despite I've ate lots of bananas alr!)and today it appeared worse. For the entire day, I felt pretty bloated in my stomach and really had no appetite during lunch (I thought it was due to yest's dinner treat from Ade. Haha... Anyway, thanks alot for the treat! Next time will be my turn when I get my bonus =)

This bloatedness continued for the entire afternoon, in fact I felt that it worsened. Sigh...in the end, something really happened on my train ride home. I almost fainted! It was kinda scary coz I did collapse once on the mrt platform and it was really embarassing too. No idea what exactly happened. I just felt very suffocated on the train and started having headache. The next moment I felt pretty giddy and almost black out. Really scary leh, coz I was all alone. Luckily I got better after resting for a while and sucking some sweets. PHEW~~

Yah, seen a ask-me-what-medicine-I-want doc. Isn't she supposed to prescribed med for me? I think I can be the doc instead! No clear diagnosis given somemore! What kind of doc is she? Sigh...that's y I never trust panel doc..

Hope that my rashes & constipation will clear real soon!!!


P.S. 1. Ade, your "QC" has passed lah, no worries. Heez... Felt really honoured that you entrusted me with this "QC" task. Haha...btw, do I have the motherly look or something? Anyway, trust yourself, trust ur choice =) Thanks for ur treat again!

P.S. 2. To my heartbroken frd, hope ur problems get resolved by now. Yes, trust is to be earned, not given. Let him know that =p

A Pissed Weekend

Last weekend was a bad one. First, my rashes worsened and secondly, a friend made me quite pissed off with him. And in fact, the more I think of it, the more pissed off I felt. OMG! I gotta put a stop to this "pissiness"! :S

Well, we have agreed to take up the blading lessons together in the first place and I have always tried my best to accommodate to all your timings so that we all can attend the class together. To think that you can't even accommodate me for this once and even asked me to attend the class on my own? Sigh... I'm really sad and disappointed with you. I know that you are under alot of stress at the moment, but do these give u reasons to treat a friend like this? So eventually I attended the Sunday's class ALONE and I guess u don't even care about it. Sadz... =(

Sometimes, I really wonder if I have given in too much to my friends already and probably I've been taken for granted already. Whatever my friends want to do, I'll do with them coz I feel that when they are happy, I'm happy too. But at the end of the day, how many really attend to my needs and wants? Sigh...

After 2 days of MC...

After 2 days of MC, I'm finally back to work today! Although my neck is still red & a little swollen + itchy, it's already alot better compared to the last 2 days. I could see my double chin the last 2 days! Hahaha
Well, after I've successfully completed the previous proj, the results also showed that the proj which I've worked on for the past 2 years is going to end up in "premature death". A little disappointed but afterall, it's just part & parcel of research, isn't it? So just have to pack up & move on =) Feeling so lazy after 2 days of MC but then still gotta push myself a little more to meet the deadline which is next Tuesday!

Today's lunch was "very entertaining". Haha...I just couldn't stop laughing bcoz ... ... Ahaha...Well, don't think I'll go into the details here coz it's some pretty stupid stuff. =p

Well, back-track a little to how I've spent my last 2 days of MC. Besides trying to scratch & hoping to ease the itch, I've been sleeping and sleeping on Monday. Ahaha... can u believe that I actually took 3 naps that afternoon when my medicine won't cause any drowsiness? Sleep for 2-3hrs, got up for 1/2hr, then back to sleep again! So piggy, rite? I realised that the more I sleep, the more tired I feel. But it's definitely a luxury to be able to laze all day in my bed on a Monday afternoon.

Yesterday was on MC too, but didn't really laze at home coz it'll be very boring to sleep all day long! Luckily LLT was on leave. Haha..so there's someone to accompany me to go out on a weekday afternoon! We met up for lunch, and caught the show 'The Prestige' after that. The show was great! I quite like the story & the flow of the show was gd too. But then, Hugh Jackman isn't as attractive as he is in the 'Scoop' as he lacks his charming, killer smile in this show. Haha~~ But he's still looks very cool. Did abit of shopping after the show, where i bought an Adidas running shorts while LLT bought his shirt. Haha..so happy that the shorts is subsidised my sis. Heez.. coz it's such a splurge to spend 30+ bucks on a pair of running shorts. Thanks sis!! =) Saw quite a couple of things that I need & wanna buy. But hmm...shall wait til month end then. Getting so broke... :(
