Guess what?
I'm typing this from home! Yups!! Went to SITEX earlier today and hubby and me signed up for the internet connection, we took up the starhub cable connection and we are entittled to a desktop plus a free phone line! Good!! Now I don't have to wait till I go back to office before I can blog or go online!
Did quite a few things today leh.
Dental in the morning (which costs us a grand total of $400 for the both of us!!!!), then had lunch with boss, ex ex sup, ex sup & current sup in Marche then rushed down to Changi expo for the SITEX. Had a seafood dinner in JB, Malaysia. Stole a few glances at future ta sao's bro. Then headed home.
Not ended yet. Still had to clean the house so that we can be free from doing all these over the weekend and can rest & rest. Somemore, my mom is back from China and tomorrow we shall go over for dinner. =)
Tested out the modem and to our suprise, we are connected already. Wasted no time in typing my virgin entry from home now. Not bad leh. Their service. Though we waited in the queue for almost 2 solid hours JUST to sign up for the connection, their activation service is really fast leh!
We only manage to get the set and made payment at close to 5pm, and when we reached home at about 10pm, plucked in and PRESTO! we are connected already.
Woah! Fast service leh!
And also, we got a sure-win-lucky-dip. What we got? A notebook, with compliments from Starhub. And hor, by sign up with Starhub, we got a $40 Sakae sushi and also an additional $150 which hubby will use to upgrade the desktop. Pretty good deal I must say to sign up during the SITEX. Of course, we now need to buy a telephone, probably a cordless phone to make use of the voice enabled modem function. So now, our family can contact us via a home phone. No need to call us on our mobile all the time. Think I wanna go for 1 with the caller ID function. So, we can see whoever calls and er... I can maybe avoid answering certain callers lor.. hahaha.. CLEVER!
While in the queue, hubby helped me buy a hard disk casing for the spare disk that I have, as advised by Ah Teck. He says like that, I can have a spare hard disc since this tablet only has a 40G memory. Nice nice box and nice nice casing leh I feel. Some more hor, just at an affordable $6! But the problem now is, instead of a 60G disc, I only have like 17G memory available. Tried to format it and all, but just cannot get the max. size out! So strange lor. But nvm la, will bring to office on Monday and ask the expert to help me with it.
Lunch in Marche was free for us. Coz boss was so kind to buy us lunch further there is a 15% discount if we pay by Citibank or HSBC cards. Unfortunetely, boss don't have any of the cards so I paid first and then boss took the whole receipt with "What you all doing (we were looking at the bill and trying to figure out who ate what) give me, I'll settle with you (looked at me.)" So ok lor, since boss wanna pay, let him do it. haha.. we got free lunch. woo hoo!!
OBIL drove us all to JB for seafood dinner, food is good. We had seafood fried rice, black pepper crabs, butter prawns, lemon chicken and sambal kang kong. Nice. But all of them say the food was too spicy but I felt it was just nice only.
Since, we din have much chance to talk, the GF and I chatted for a while waiting for the men to come back from the gents. Then, since today morning, when I know that a dinner in JB was being planned, something keeps nagging me to remember to invite her to the Christmas gathering. And kind of glad that I did. She agree to come. I was kinda surprised at her readiness coz hubby says not coming ma.
The feeling that I got when she agrees and all was nothing out of the ordinary. Din feel like I'll be torturing myself. I cannot only believe that prayer really really works!
Lots mre of grandmother stories and details. Another time, more like after I bathe!
Need to bathe my smelly body now!
P.s.OK, back after my hot bath and for the pictures and details @ 12.50am
Friday, December 1
No need to wait anymore!
