Long weekend

Tml is a PH (May Day) and I decided to take 1 day off to enjoy my long weekend as well as to rush out my last media assignment for this semester. Haven't really been scoring well for those 2 previous TMAs. Really hope that this one can do a bit better. But then again, this last TMA is so tough... I just try my best.

Just as my stomach was rumbling in protest for not having put in any food. Godma suggests having lunch together since I'm at home. She and bro can come over to my plc where we can enjoy lunch in the comfort of my home. Catch is, I have to go and tapow for all of them. =(

Anyway, I did lor. So at about 12 noon, the 2 of them began to tropped over and we enjoy a good tapowed lunch. As usual la, sure chat and yakked till the lunch time is fully over before they head back to office to work and I got back to my TMA.

I already had the first draft ready, just needed to add in abit more here and there and I'm ready to hand it in! Don't want to look at it anymore. Darn sian lor.

Finally handed it in and I went to take a break. Nuah in front of the TV and eat ice-cream... and after tat went to zzzz.

Must wake up by 5 later coz Hubby brining me out for dinner... and there goes my leave.... like that *poof* 1 day gone!

I'm gonna be in trouble...

I know I'm gonna run into a broke month when I saw this flyer. (after the broken bottle)

1 of the promtion set comes with the same thing, if I buy the treatment by itself, it's already 1/3 the costs of the set. Somemore, there's 2 tubes inside the set! A mini and normal. Tempted!!!

This bag.

Which, I've already ordered and paid for from the spree.

A dress from VA, skirt from Ella, tops from C.O.A.X.

I hope the list ends here... But unfortuntely, this is round the corner too. =(In case, you cannot figure what this pic is, it's the notice warning that Mothers' Day is fast approaching.

I tried my best. I DID!

Finally, I'm done with 1 of the bo liao Ucore modules.... and this module requires us to write 3, 800 words essay to be handed in with 3 mind maps.

So being the very good student that I am, I decided to be neat about it and use some freeware to do it.

This is my First attempt. Looks kiddish, don't you think so? =/

But then, practise will make all things better, so I tried again (with a different software coz that freeware expired!) and came up with this for my Second assignment. Better already right? =)

But my tutor wrote a comment and say that I should try to hand draw him something for the last assignment and also for practise.... Well, since the tutor put it this way... I don't really have a choice do I? (If you say, I do, then next time when your wife, tutor, boss tell you something, you do the opposite lor) So, I tried very hard, hubby also try abit... telling me, here, there, here here, there there, which don't make much sense to me... but well. Try I did and ta da....OK. Laugh ALL you want. I can't draw. You know why I drew an elephant backside? Coz, elephants are supposed to have long term memory, which is what the question was asking lor.

The joke of the day is, I got an email from the tutor telling assuring me that this mind map thingy is beautiful and I should keep it up.

-_-""

Tribute to my roller...

Would you believe I took this picture the MORNING I broke it?! I was just getting comfortable with the roller and so fascinated by it lei! And I broke it... hai...

Ironic was, I was just admiring the roller on the same morning and was going to blog about the roller!!!

='(

DIY Beauty

Recently hooked to online shopping (Coz no time and no kaki to go with me, what to do? Shop online lor!) ... and I saw something called EPI Stick all the way from Japan! Which is like sold at $19 in shops!!! But, this one that I saw is being sold at only $2.20, shipped. CHEAP right!!! Also, the reviews were so good...remove tiny, thin facial hair, leaving the face, fairer, less cloged pores and of course smoother. With all these advantages, OF COURSE I have to get one and try!

Shared the info with Irene and she's keen to try too! So, without waiting any longer, I immediately went ahead and ordered ourselves a stick each. Actually since, it comes from Japan, all the shipment and all, took a long long time. But I finally got my hands on it!

Immediately went to try it! Initally, quite an "ouchy" feeling when those hairs get pulled out. But after a while, it feels rather shiok lei. hahaha.. Too early to tell if my face got like this right?

Argg! There it goes =(

I've just lost a brand new bottle of Clarins. ='( So sad! I've only just started using it!!!

It went *piang* on the floor earlier on... and there it goes...it's BRAND new and it costs me $36!!!

Surprise!

I came home after the blessed Astronomy thing and thank God, EVERYTHING went well.

Well, there were a few minor things that affected the whole thing but then again, the chairman and the dy dir said "Well Done" to me at the end of the event, so it can't have gone too badly! =) Finally, this is over and again, it will be another year till I see it again. So, yes, I've conducted yet another round of successful Astronomy Competition!

Darn happy to call it a day and I missed the refresehment just so that poor hubby don't have to wait too long for me for dinner.

Nothing much, but just normal food at the coffee shop. I thought I will screw up the event when those set back happen but I was able to use my role as "Emcee" to demand my rights out of it! hahahaha... anyway.. came home to find these on the table...
Seaweed crackers!!! Yay!!!! I like! =) I've always been a fan of seaweed, recently addicted to the "Tao Kae Noi" seaweed, but I like these as well too. The difference is that this comes with the seaweed on top of cracker while TKN is just the seaweed itself.

Sweet hubby bought these for me knowing that I like it. =) I'm so happy when I saw it! hahahaha... yups, I'm a easily contented female.

All it took was 2 packs of seaweed and I'm like over the moon... hahahahaha....=)

Time for Revealing...

Finally, got my hands on my beloved T100 and to show what Irene and I got from our lunch trip...

Ta dah!!!Some more heels.. heehee...I'm really falling in love with this AMK Hub... I'm sure pretty soon, I will be a member of more stores located there.

Anyway, the main point was, Irene and I like the blue wedges so much, we each got a pair. I love it! So nice! =) I got a pair of black pumps too, for going to work in. It's so low and comfy. Great for all those walking when my students decide to pay us a visit.

Talking about visits, I have like 2 or 3 planned out next month. Thank God, we manage to push 1 away though... for some Sec 5NA students from a religious group.... thank God, my boss and sup agrees that we should entertain those that come from the local Sec schools instead of some religious and privately own company!

Had the Astronomy Competition rehearsal earlier on... and I do do do pray and hope that all will go well, the rules of the quiz seem so complicated! Hope, I don't screw up the whole event especially when so many big shots will be there!

Rehearsal was supposed to start at 5.30pm, but when I reached there, NO ONE was ready for it. Hai... so I had to wait around and just sit on my ass. It din start till close to 6.15pm!!! Argh!!! By the time, they were happy with what I've said or done, it's already 8.40pm... hai... And finally at 15 mins to 9, I made my way home....

So so soooooo tired!!! And still have to read thru the scripts and all again before I sleep later! Cannot be helped since the event is tomorrow! =/

Lunch under the Sea

Had a "under the sea lunch" earlier. =) Does it look familiar?

Yups! Fish & Co the the new AMK Hub.

Between the 3 of us, we had a main course each of either Peri Catch or New York Fish & Chips. Not to mention the soup of the day, Clam Chowder. And we shared a salad and Grilled Calarmi.

I've never been a fan of clam chowder...for whateve reasons unknown to myself, but I tried it today. The Clam chowder is really really good! Thick with lots of goodness in it. Not the usual cambells thin soup. This has carrots, potatoes and you can really taste bits of clams in it! Yummy! Not to mention, served in a dainty cup.. abit small but hey! NICE!!!A garden salad that came at $5 with any main course. Which we ordered one and share. Not bad. I like the dressing. =) New York Fish and Chips with cheese. What can I say? NICE! And the serving is soo huge. Struggled just to put most of it into me. My all time favourite, Calarmi. Noticed the handle? hahaha... sooo obvious, this Fish & Co. *Tsk*Tsk* Too full to even try this Peri Catch! But from the looks of it, it's darn appetising!

Enjoyable lunch. Made payment by Citibank card, so in the end, we got a voucher for free starters the next time we go to any Fish & Co. Not bad.

The service is rather good too I must say. The staff are polite and nice. Will go back agian if I'm in the mood for fish.

Irene and I walked around abit and we each got something... shall keep you all in suspense till I manage to get my hands on my camera... =P

This, not surprising

At the rate that I'm eating snacks, chocolates, chocolate ice-creams, chocolate drinks, chocolates and others don't know what chocolate things... it's not a surprise that I'm turning into this soon lor.

You Are a Chocolate Cake

Fun, comforting, and friendly. You are a true classic, and while you're not super cutting edge, you're high quality. People love your company - and have even been known to get addicted to you.

What Kind of Cake Are You?

Though, I don't see much of ppl getting addicted to me lei. More like I'm getting more and more and more addicted to anything chocolate. -_-"

Heh!

Feeling bo liao during lunch time and I went to do a test on the "supposed colour of my blog"...

Your Blog Should Be Blue

Your blog is a peaceful, calming force in the blogosphere.You tend to avoid conflict - you're more likely to share than rant.From your social causes to cute pet photos, your life is a (mostly) open book.

What Color Should Your Blog or Journal Be?

Bleh! Total UNTRUE! for the colour part... but the rest of it... I guess is pretty much true...

But I LOVE and LIKE my pink! Shan't change!

Wedding Bells a-ringing

I think I've never been so happy in attending a wedding before in my entire life! Of course, minus my own. But that cannot be counted coz I cannot be "attending" my own wedding. I was the bride, the other shinning star of the whole event during my own wedding right?

Anyway... When I say I've never been so happy in attending a wedding, needless to say, it is not my own wedding lar.

We just got invited to a wedding banquet on 1 June 07. Venue, I'm not sure yet... just wait for the invite card to reach our house and then we will know.

And whose wedding is it that made me so happy? =D

OBIL's ex GF!!!! hahahahaha... Yay! Hoorary!!! Thank you Lord for blessing her with another better man than OBIL! Thank you for looking after her and that she has a more worthy man than OBIL!

That's the reason why, I think this is the happiest wedding banquet that I've ever been invited to! =D

Congratulation my Dear! Wishing you marital bliss always!

What is mine is back.

After a whole week of using some old HP of my sister, finally my beloved V3i is back into my arms.. erm... fingers, more like.

First thing?! Check and make sure that it starts up without that silly error.

Next, load in all my contacts from SIM card into the phone memory.

Thirdly, begin SMS-ing away!

=) (=

What can I say? It's good to have your own HP back!!!

Grateful to Sis for loaning me her old hp while I was in dire needs. But, nothing beats having your own hp lar.

But hor... now that the silly error is gone. I think there is another issue.... not sure if it's my eye.. but somehow, the screen seems to be flickering to me!

I should go and seek a second opinion to check on the screen, else it's time to visit my optometrits to check my eyes.

And oh yes... what's the cause of the error?

According to the doctor, it's acutally a VERY rare software error. Doctor is also not sure what is the cause of it. =S

Medication: Reload software. BUT! The catch is, the SG version of the software has expired and hence my V3i is now loaded with the Malaysian version. Erm... All things work well except when I use GPRS. =/ Which may result in software error again....

So, once it's sick, it will always be sick lor.... hai.. what to do? Just don't use GPRS lor.. which in the first place, I don't lar. So should be fine.

As long as it's not the screen giving me problems, I will use this till Dec this year. =)

Finally, just 1 more.

Just handed in another TMA. Which brings me to the final and I guess the tougest TMA among all that I have been doing for the past erm... 2,3 months.

Actually, time passes very fast. Without realising, I'm almost at the end of my current semsester, just another 3 more lessons and then I will have to start preparing for my exams. Very lucky for me, this sem I only have 1 paper.

But I thought SIM also kiasu lei. So fast, making us choose our next semester timetable and modules that we wanna take. Haven't even sit for exams so fast choose. What if really touch wood... fail how?

But, no choice la. Have to choose means have to choose. I've more or less already made up my mind... definately taking the 2nd half of Contract Law as well as Stats. This will take up a total of 10 credits.

Now, my question and dilema is should I take on another 10 Credit course? Or should I just take 10 CU for next sem? One sem can take up to 20 CU, should I max it or should I relax and take it slowly. Looking at the timetable, if I were to take another paper, I will be taking 3 exam papers at the end of the sem.

I'm worried that it will be too much for me to handle. But if I don't take the full 20 CU, then it will take me 3 full years to complete instead of the 2.5 years.

=/ Deilema now.

How ar?? I was also thinking, if I'm only taking 10 CU, then I will wanna clear the Ucore as well. 2 bo liao modules that must be cleared.. Since I'm taking 10 CU, a rather relax sem, then I might as well clear those 2.

Really cannot make up my mind. =/

Happy or Tears?

Got an email from my Stats Tutor with the following message.

"I was unable to talk to you more frequently in the last few days as we were busy finalising your BUS105 results. The results should be delivered to you soon. Watch out!"

So, which means, our results will be out soon. So means very soon, I will know if I have done well enough for Stats, pass or fail for Law. =S I've no doubts that Stats will pass. But the Law???

Help help!

Cannot SMS

=(

I sent my V3i to the hospital yesterday. Because this is what I get when I off it and try to on it. Not sure, if the V3i is in A&E or still queueing for treatment.

I hope Nurse Emma can heal it back to health soon... and according to Missy Emma, she said, should be able to resolve by downloading the software again...

So, for the time being, I am using an old Panasonic HP that belongs to my sis. I'm still not sure how to SMS with this ancient dainty looking creature.... the keys are all different!

So, be warned! I won't be answering SMS much these days. If you need to find me, call me. Else, sms Jer, he should pass me the message when I see him at night...

But, hello, if you are my admirer, secret or otherwise, be smart enough to NOT sms my hubby la! hahahahahahaha

What can I do for you?

Hai.... somtimes, I just hate to read Tri's blog. =(

Reading her sadness, her helplessness, her misery, her endless arguments with that useless bf of hers and also her problems at work. I feel like slapping him. Feel like giving her a good shake (plus maybe a good slap!) to wake her up!

She knows that he is NOT the kind of man that will turn out to be a good husband for her, a good father to her children, a good companion and at the moment, not even a good BF! And yet, she is sticking on with him. Not course, she is deeply in love with him, just course, she is waiting for the right person to come along before she makes the final decision.

Tri. I really really wish and pray that you will take the matter into your hands. Either he change or u make a clean break. Don't drag!

So what if the "right" man comes along? What can you do, if he comes? You still have this bf to contend with. Might as well make a clean break and then carry on with the search of your happiness!

You have given him and yourself enough chances! Stop it. You cannot even be HONEST with him. Cannot hold a decent conversation without ending in arguements. How can you even be able to imagine life with him?!?! Not to mention, it's for the rest of your life?!

I know, it's not easy to make a clean break. After all the time and years that you both have spent together, of course it is NOT easy. But, it is better to make this heart wrenching decision rather than to drag on and is made worse when there are children.

I know it's easy for me to say... coz I'm not in your situation. But, my dear dear friend. Remember what prompt you to make the decision to ditch G? Where has that determined girl I used to know gone? Where is she hidding? It's time you let her out...

N as for the useless BF, (if you are reading) you know who on earth you are. I'm not sure what has happened between you both, true. But, as a man, (if you can call yourself a 'man' lor) Which man will make his gf to be so darn miserable? NO other man I know has done it.

I know the male species usually are not good listeners. But, if you can just keep your bloody mouth shut long enough to listen to Tri, you can hear what she really wants to tell you! And not just keep making her shed tears for you. U and your worthlessness is simply NOT worth her tears at all!

You are so darn egoistic. So bloody full of yourself! Tri definately deserves someone more worthy!

ARGH!!! I feel so pissed... knowing that no matter what I say, she is still feeling the same. Knowing that there is NOTHING I can do. Knowing that she is miserable coz of this idiot and miserable coz of work. argh!!!!!!!!!!

A woman's fear

Not necessary for any other comments right? The first 5 words of the sentences seem to already say it all, right? =(

Hence, the need for this... at a freaking... I really, really do hope this work wonders for my tired out skin.

Really have been working long and hard nights coz of the TMA... exams are round the corner and I've not been doing any revision at all. =(

Hope my skin won't suffer because of all these!

Hai... woman's fears....

I tell you... the bug has really really....

Being Easter, we made our rounds to church for the 3pm Service. THE holy hour where the Lord gave up his life for us so needless to say is jam packed.

After that, Erkia, Hubby and me went to AMK S11 to have an early dinner since today is supposed to be a day of fasting and abstience for us. We were all famished after the long service. To my surprise, even met Cheryl there! So surprise. She was there with her friend, so we din talk much also.

Anyway! That's NOT the main point. The main point is this!!!
and this!!!NICE right?!!!!

Saw these 2 items at the HUB. Went for a walk there after the meal and I was thinking of getting an extra battery to replace the almost dying battery of my existing V3i, but the sales person told me, should not be the battery's fault. More like the software problem and I should be sending my V3i to the customer service store... heh.... If I have to, I won't go to the customer service lor, I'll pass to Emma or Karen lor. Easier for me. hahah.. see how. See if I can "dong" till Dec or I cannot take it anymore, I'll change a new hp...

Then just as I was about to leave, hubby saw this phone. The Motorola Rokr E6. It's a PDA phone, matching my needs too. Best of all, the price is very very reasonable! At only $328 for a 2-year contract! So much better than the Sony W880i or the Asus P535. Match my needs and NOT burn a hole in my pocket! Best of all, the reviews of this PDA phone is soooo good, till it's almost a perfect score! hahahaha...

OK, Decided. I shall go for this phone instead! Next, a PINK mouse!!! PRETTY right?! VERY!!! I feel. There were lots of mouse to choose from. But somehow, the moment I saw this, the rest just don't attract me anymore. It's a tiny mouse and hor, it looks like an optical wireless mouse right? Actually, it's not, it's a normal, wired, optical mouse.. just that the wire can be coiled round the mouse and it's hidden! Nice and compact! =)

Yay!!! Bye to you, ugly red old thing. hahaha... Wanted to change mouse coz the roller is not working. Hence, was on the look out for one and I almost got an ugly looking one from NTUC.

But hubby was telling me, at the price of $40, can get something much better lor. I kind of agree too, so din buy. Thank God, no buy from NTUC! Else, I won't be able to buy this pink mouse. I can't be buying 2 mouse in the same day right?!

So, it does pay to listen to Jerome once in a while.. hahahahaha

"Old" meets "NEW". COOL! hahaha... happy manz! =D

The Dinner

The dinner was on Friday and all of the staff, if not most of the staff dressed up to the nines... Myself inclusive!

Actually, I feel there's nothing special about this dinner. We had the 10th anniversary celebration in Swissotel, this time, 15th anniversary, still the same place. I think it's the same ballroom too, Raffles Ballroom or something like that. Last time, Hubby came as my partner, now he came as my spouse. That time, Irene went alone, this time, Mel was with her. Still more or less the same faces at the same table too. hahahaha.... we are such creatures of habit!

Looking (and mentally tasting) back at the dinner, I think the only 2 things that left a deep impression in my mind was the Bday cake. It was really really good! I cannot even began to describe how good it was except, you got to go to Raffles (I assume they have their own bakery) and just buy it. I tell you, it's better than Pine Gardens!

And the dessert... the name sounds soooo yummy... "Warm Glutinous Rice with Vanilla Ice Cream" we were all so eager to find out just wat it was! The name just tease my tastebuds the whole evening!

Finally, when it's time for dessert. We found out wat it was... hahaha.. it's the "Oh Bi Bur" or some others call it the "Black Porridge dessert" with a scoop of Vanilla ice cream to replace the coconut milk!

HA!

But, surprisingly, the taste is really good! At least this time round, the food was much much better than the previous time. =)
