Friday =)

Yeah!! Friday. My favourite day of the week! Coz it marks the end of the working week and next day is the start of weekend!! haha

Somemore, I am on leave today. I'm in a beautifuuuuul mood!!

Lots of $$ fly fly fly...

Wah... spent a lot of $$ again..

Just out in town for a few hours wif hubby and we spent like $200++.. Gosh.. Bought loads of things though. Happy me! =)

Nothing much to blog about accept that had dinner at my mum's last nite and she made my least fav soup.. Cantonese call it the "Dai Kai Choy" soup.. which is actually some kinda veg, can be a bit bitter at times, hence I don't really like it.

Since hubby and I were rushing to CTK for the monthly OGF, we din stay long. And my mom wanted me to bring home a bag of fruits, asked her to bring to the bakery, will collect from her on our way home after class.

And she gave me a surprise. She said my oldest aunt bought me a bag. I thought it will be thsoe obiang ones and was quite skeptical about it but.. WAIT! not bad leh the bag.. her tastes has certainly improved. haha

Earlier this morning, cousin Alan sms me saying tat he will be in campus for today and tml so we made plans for lunch and woo hoo!! I can pass him the Lego that I bought for nephew Lucas for his 4th Bday! Surprisingly, he said he wanted Mac for lunchy so we went lor and needless to say, I got a free lunch.

Cousin mah, he's MALE, OLDER and earning MORE. So, no big problem at all right?! haha

He said something to me that I think I must really put more efforts into sourcing THAT degree for myself.

YaY!! Cakes to eat...

ALmost forgot that my colleague has sent me this via the internal mailing system. Can you guess from where?

Yep, if you noticed the little left hand corner, it says "Begawan Solo". Looks like they have changed their packaging. Their old 1 looks really O-B-I-A-N-G lor. Pinky and all. Anyway it's time to change their design once a while to make it "fresh" to consummers like us. haha

I quite like the new design on the card. V pretty and cheerful. Blue and pink.I thought they can further improve it if they could have like 2 colour theme. The blue one for BB boys and the pink for BB girls. Well... if it so happens that someone has a pair of twins then either colour or a mixture of colour lor! haha..

And guess what, now they have more than just the normal Walnut, Fruit or Marble cake etc. Now they have added in Lapis, Strawberry Light Cheese cake and even a Baby's Booties and Bubbly Teddy (whatever that is)! I'm begining to like Begawan Solo now.. haha

I used to find it soo boring esp when all the colleagues start giving you the vouchers after their BB is born. But with the new pretty card and also the new items. Hey! I'm not complaining!

penny worth of thoughts...

Rencently, I'm being bogged down by this question/offering by my organisation.

"Do you want to further yourself?"

*sigh* I also don't know how to answer them. I know that it is not everyday that I'm being offered to go and study. But the thing is, the dir has been asking me this question for the last couple of years.

I know that I should take it up. But the thing is, I am seriously not in the mood to study but I also know that if I do not keep upgrading, then I will be stagnant and won't be able to go for promotion nor any other thing else.

Yet, on the other hand if I do go for it, I know that I am gurateened of a job for the next couple of years (at least 5 years) and that once I have a degree to my name, even if I were to change job, it would be that slightly easier for me.

So.. what's holding me back?
1) I can only do the program PART TIME. Meaning I still got to work full time (to earn my living) and to study like 3, 4 evenings a week during week days OR the whole weekend for AT LEAST 2 YEARS!!! *think I will either do darn bad or will have to repeat each sem at least once!!*

2) Being bonded for the next 5 years after I graduate is not a problem for me. The only problem is the increase of the workload that I am fearful of.

3) Which also means, if I do take up the offer, I got to shelf our BB plans for another 3 years at least. Or to be exact, only can start our BB operation a year after I graduate. Coz I figured that my paying boss won't be too happy if I come back wif my degree and then proceed with a 3 mth maternity leave. -_-" But hubby is not too happy if we shelf it for too long. He's already excited to try to be a "Daddy" at the moment. To shelf it for 3 mre long years.. Think he will flip!

Yet, on the other hand.. If I do take up the offer... The plus would be
1) Sure of a better prospect in future. Maybe not a promotion to the "Mgr" level (as though I am dying for it?! *bleh*) but I know I will definately be a lecturer and therefore higher income and a better life for my future kiddies (should the Lord choose to bless us with) and then maybe I can have my 4 kiddies... 2 boys and 2 girls?

2) Be able to afford a more comfy standard living for my family.

3) Be part of the "norm" now that all is having a degree and I own 1 too. Tat will shut the rest of the ppl up!

4) I know, the bottom line is still for MY OWN BENEFIT, once I owned tat blessed piece of paper, it would be easier for me to change jobs and to 'demand' for a higher salary lor.

All in all, I know that it is for my own benefit that if I have a degree to my name. What's more, the co is willing to pay the FULL course fees for me and all I need to do is to get a PASS in everything that I am taking. Weather I get fanastic or just pass results is not impt. Coz what I need is JUST THAT PIECE OF BLESSED PAPER and even if I do not too well. The co can't do anything.. coz.. (they deserved it for 'forcing' me to go study) I'm being bonded for 5 darn long years, remember?!

But, having said all these... I am just not willing to go n study la.. *sigh* V happy with the kinda life I am leading now. Though I know that when my 1st BB comes, life may not be so comfy. So it's either I struggle now and then give my kiddies a better life lor.

I also know I cannot remained where I am forever coz I will be obselte. *Sigh* But having to push our BB plans for so long is really the main main main reason for me to think so darn hard.

Think if hubby is agreeable and I have his support not so bad lor.. But I also know... God meant for us in marriage for "intimacy" and "procreate!" These 2 are the main pilliars of marriage. W/o these 2... then...???

Need, no... it's desprately need God to show us some leeway to get round this. *sigh*

rainy afternoons

For some strange reasons, the rain will fall in the afternoons. Nothing particular u may say. BUT, this is the month of JUNE - the hottest hottest month(s) (followed by July, Aug and Sep) but this few weeks or rather days, we wake up to a cloudy and windy morning. =)

Then as the day draws nearer to afternoon, the sky turns dark and we don't even feel the afternoon heat as we normally do in the hot hot month of June. And suddenly, it simply pours!

Just like today. Afer mass in the morning, Emma, hubby and myself went to AMK S11 for lunch and just as we settle down comfortably for our lunchy, the sky turns darker and darker and w/o any warning... PATTER! PATTER!! PATTER!!! All the water, the rain and all tat falls fm the sky just FALL! Gosh.. But luckily, we were seated in the middle so no water cld touch us fm the sides.. but sucks, that place has a LOUSY drainage system. All the water pooled round our legs.. Thank God, I had the cow sense to wear sandals and also skirt. haha.. so my legs and hems of jeans were not wet at all! haha.. Poor Emma and hubby... wet hems.. haha..

Sat there for a long time, chatting and just laughing and enjoying each other's company. After a long long time, we decided to make a move (tat's coz the rain finally relented and let up too) and Emma went home, hubby and me walked rnd AMK. Din buy anything except wrappers @ 10 cents each!! Wah.. haha.. so I bought 5 pieces.

Then decided to go to J8 to collect my Evening Primrose fm GNC and also to get another set of the mattress protector and c if there's anything else lor.

I do like Sunday afternoons. Since from don't know when, after mass, the few of us will just go for lunch and then yak for a while. Following that, either hubby and me will go n do lesiure window shopping and then come home or we will go home straight. It makes me feel so good just to spend time wif friends yakking and laughing and also to enjoy their company! =)

Of course, if only there are 3 days of weekends instead of 2, Sat we will spend on housework and then Sunday in church and then with friends and last of all, the last day to rest and recover for the working week ahead! Wah!! Soooo good.. the best part is that there will only be 4 working days!! Hahahaha

Good lunchy!

Had a super super good lunchy at... Vienna International Seafood & Teppanyaki Buffet Restaurant

They have quite a good spread. Sashimi, BIG prawns, desserts, and also cooked food. But being me, I LOOOOOOVE sashimi so I went for that and also the desserts. Coz I was so lazy to shell the prawns, I din take much. Only had 2. But it was too cold.. so I din raelly like it also.

Lunchy wif boss, Sak, Steph and Paul was great! We really enjoyed the laughter and just get together.

And best of all, the lunch was free coz Sak and Steph got their 10 year award and they gave all of us a treat. =)

Tks Dears!

Darn! Office or Warehouse?!

Argg!! I hate it when all the vendors delivered the items to me and then I have no space to store them and I got to stack all the boxes and boxes of things in my poor pathetic office!

I got to live with the musty smell, the old cardboard amgonst all the inconvenience of shifting this and that in order to open a drawer or a door!! Argg!!!

And everyyear, I have the same darn problem of having NOWHERE to put these items! Basket! Does this look like an office???

And I really feel sooo bad to my roomate. He got to live with this mess that I have to live with too thru NO fault of his at all!!

ARGGG...

I don't just DOMINATE my shared office, I dominate the printing room too!!! these are the rest of all that cannot fit into the office.

Good gracious!

Gosh!! Spent such a long time trying to get my pet up into the blog.. now it is ok.. but only if I view it with "firefox" if I view it with IE.. everything goes haywire! This is so irriating and I don't know how to resolve it! Argg!!!

It just occured to me that 2 of my close friends are plaqued with matters of the hearts problems.. actually to me it's more like crisis.. But to them.. I guess they wld be looking at it like a stand point or a cooling off period.

To a certain extent, both of their situations are same yet different. 1 dated a childish and immature (in my opinion)male while the other dated a too ego and fear of commitment male. Not sure if it is the deep down fear of committment that made these 2 males wat they are but definately they are the cause of my gal friend's sleeplessness nights and sighs that seem to escape them recently.

Both of the males cannot give the kinda security tat a female so desparately seeks. weather it is coz they themselves do not know or they simply am not concern or not bothered, I have no idea. All I know is that, to a certain extend, they both don't deserve girlfriends like my 2 galfriends.

I'm sure both males hold that something extra and special to be able to draw the hearts of the female but at this moment in time if they guys don't do anything soon, they may just loose them. Well.. maybe for 1 of them, it's already too late.

I would call a 3 mth not speaking and not contacting definately a cause of concern and cause of alarm.. but I never knew that my galfriend could be sooooo darn stubborn in NOT answering him, talking nor even picking up his call for 3 SOLID months! Gosh... And since they are so far apart, it really does not help at all.

The other guy is ego and scared of committment and in his words "does not want to be controlled" so that leaves the girl hanging somewhere in the air. Not able to come down nor able to float any higher. And, I find it so amazing that she can put all the blame on horoscopes.. I mean yar, a person can turn out to be this way or that way. And maybe certain traits are more prevalent in a certain horoscopes.. but then how? To put all the things that happen onto horoscopes? Quite rubbish lor.. I feel. Just coz the guy and me are same horoscopes (I swear, I gave up reading horoscopes after attending RCIA) I DO NOT believe in it anymore. God created us, so why should we relay on a paragraph to see how or wat we should be behaving?!

Some traits are just in born and takes time to change. He is who he is and for that, if she really wants to be with him then either he change or she learn to accept and live with it. But before anything else, both has got to reach a compromise somewhere, somehow, sometime.

What can I say? Nothing much. I can only be here to be the listening ear as and when they want to share things with me.

Women.. We just want to be told what's the future holds for us, (IF there is even a "US" in the future) listening to them, really brings back memories of how and what I had to go thru before hubby and me got married. Y must guys be so darn insenstitive and that they have to be told and pushed before they can switch from stand point to gear 1?

Hai.. having said all these, I'm still glad that though hubby is who and what he is. We don't have this kinda things happening on a frequent basiscs.

1st time

This evening was the 1st time that I cooked for my sister a chinese meal.

Earlier today, we were on MSN and she was sharing tat my mom is not preparing dinner so I invited her over to dinner since I'm gonna cook anyway. Surprisingly, she said ok. I din expect that though.

So after work rushed home to get started but rushed to Prime mart to get a can of button mushrooms coz I know I had run out of it at home. Spent quite a while thee just to choose a can of mushrooms! Gosh... almost all the tins were all dented! Took me a long time before I could choose 1 relatively in good condition.

Luckily, I still have eggs to make omalette with, together with the chicken, veg and soup (that I had already began boiling this morning) that I'm gonna prepare will be enough to feed all the 4 of us lor.

Supposed to have 4 ppl for dinner then just before I was gng to cook, my middle sis says not coming so left 3 of us. Just nice with the amt of food tat I was gng to place on the table lor. And thank God, she says not coming coz just as I was gng to wash rice, I realised ALL the rice was enough for the 3 of us only!! Thank God she says not coming but she want my youngest sis to tapow the soup for her to take back.

And the verdict? My sis says not bad.. haha.. so quite happy lor.. =) She did take home the soup and sme other disc to occupy her time now that it's the holidays.

Then after she left, hubby and me went downstairs to fly plane.. Chey... the plane cannot fly wan... well.. for $10.. can glide lor.. So hubby was quite disappointed.

More shopping =)

Need I say more? haha

Went shopping again after a GOOD buffect Dim Sum lunch at Harbour Front. Hubby brought me there coz he knows I love prawns and their prawns are really fresh and sweet! Yummy yummy!!!

After such a satisfying lunch, we did walk rnd Harbour Front for a while and hubby bought these for his plane we bought yesterday all these for only $2!! And hubby was sooo sad last nite coz we don't have 6 batteries at home for the plane. So to make sure, we have enough, there are 4 dozens here!!!

Took the MRT and went to Marina for our movie - XMen3! SInce we dropped at City Hall, we went to Robinsons 1st to visit Fancl house. And got more things.. *sigh* Just 3 itmes and it's $80.50!!! Argg But the good news is, there was a $5 voucher given to me coz I spent more than $50! Should have told me earlier and then I will top up my purchase to $100!

Not a bad movie for the effects though. But story line is quite typical of the good vs bad kinda show. Watch for the effects lor. And since soooo many ppl told us to stay thru to the end for some surprise, we did and the credit rolls was sooooooooo darn long. I kinda feel like an idiot. But now I am wondering if Singaporeans really soooo free or they want the air con coz they feel that they've paid for the show therefore stay till ALL is over? Whatever la... but I am not the kind tat will stay on for so long after the show lor.

Then walked rnd Marina, hubby desprately want to spend $50 to take part in the draw.. so we look for something to buy... But nothing leh..
So finally, we went to Suntec and finally made our purchase at Carefour. Then as we were discussing to take bus or to take MRT, we passed by Filas and saw that they have promotion. Buy 1 get 2 free. Haha.. weird promotion but then again... the buy 1 will costs $39.90 lor. So I understand liao. The polo tees were not bad and hubby went to try. Too bad don't have his size.. Was telling him nvm, we can go to J8 branch to take a look and the sales person said nearest branch is Marina... and off we troop back to Marina (after I persuaded Hubby). Actually spent sometime looking for it Filas.. But finally found it and then hubby bought 2 polo tee and a pair of bermudas. So all these at $39.90 and then we went round looking for something to buy at $10.10 so as to combine to $50!! Finally went into mini toons to get my landyards again and also some sweets lor.. tat costs $10.90 so finally can take part in the draw lor. *whew* think Hubby is 1 happy man now. So, now we got to find the info counter to look for the lucky draw tickets.. and on the way, we pass by GNC. Have been thinking about their Evening Primerose oil coz it's 2 for the price of 1!! And since Marina has the draw, heck.. go ahead to get it lar! So my purchase at GNC includes the primerose oil and a bottle of honey + a FOC cucumber extract moisturizer amouting to $100.90!!! Argg... They only have 1 bottle left so I will be collecting the other bottle at J8 when the stock comes in. =)

So all in all, we spent more than $150... and we charged to citibank, so our chances are doubled lor.

Finally collected all the things and on the way home/dinner.. Was craving for the garlic chicken chop Amanda has yesterday at S11... was tempted to go there.. but after getting on 162, we were so tired, forget it, we went home and just have dinner at the nearby coffeeshop. Hubby bump into his friend there and he chatted with him for a while too. =)

Good end to a great day!!

Finally! GSS

Actually, GSS has started for more than a week and yet, I have not gotten anything interesting at all for myself or for my hse. But LOOK at our purchases for today alone!!!

So.. today, after 2 super hot days at home, we decided to hang in town, at least the air-con is FOC even if we have to battle it out with the crowds! It's still worth it.

SO after mass, we had lunch at AMK S11 with some friends then it's off to town we go. =) Hubby needs to collect some itmes at Specialist Centre. NOT mine ok, ALL hubby's!
So we went there 1st, dropped by John Little. So boring, soooo auntie and the air con seems to be not working. Nothing to buy. So we went to Robinsons instead. Once we went in.. wah... Cool air greeted us. GOOD! More expensive place tat's y the air also cooler. Went to the household and believe me, we spent at least 2 hours lingering at the linen and bedsheets. And wat did we get?? A fitted sheet set + 2 pillow cases.. (can't get a good pic here, coz my sucky HP cam din manage to get it) which costs us $$119!! I can't believe it.. Darn ex.. but the material is good. Hope it is really soooo good. *sigh* We hv a problem wif out mattress coz it's sooo thick tat we simply cannot find any to fit it. With this new 1.. hopefully it will. The colour is supposed to be green but my sucky cam... hai..

In addition to the fitted sheet, and have enough of those cheap covers that we owned that always seem to fall apart after washing, I manage to cajole hubby to buy 4 brand new cushion covers for our sofa.. Hopefully, these will be of better material and quality tat the edges won't frayed nor the stiches start coming out after a few wash! These are not cheap ok! A single piece of the "Golden Yellow" costs $13 while the other piece is $12+!! Basket, so expensive! Like these 4 pieces it's another $$50+ gone!! Seesh...

Also went to Marks and Spencer and bought these for myself.. *blush* Well, they were on sale and Emma highly recommended them. So how could I refuse? *hiak*hiak*

And after these alone.. we were hungry and tired. Went to the food court behind OG point to grab a bite. I was craving for the Thai food and since hubby have no where better to suggest going, we went there lor. Nice food, not that packed and we were able to sit down (after such a long day) to rest and enjoy and yak. Seems like yesterday that hubby was telling me abt his family and though we had this conversation many many times, we still enjoy telling each other about our relatives and cousins again and again. And after a good rest, the nearest place to go will be to OG lor. Haha...

Good choice that we went in leh, hubby manage to get a pair of jeans! Though he did go in and out of the fitting room many times, he finally decided to get this and also, it fits him lor. haha.. Now, my FIL don't have to nag us tat GSS is here, go get a pair of pants! haha.. Got a voucher to purchase a shirt at $28. But, yeeks! Those shirts are sooooooooo Uncle. Din get any. Went up stairs to the toys department and I don't know wat's with hubby these days. (Must be his colleagues, I supposed) He's so interested and excited about planes. But knowing hubby, too ex he won't buy la.. And we saw this . Hubby was elacted! He was like a boy having Christmas early. Stood there for a long time, all the time telling me abt the plane. Then we moved on to cars and BACK to the plane again! And since he was eying planes for such a long time, and it was only $10 so we got it as well. His face literally LIT up!

So after all the buying spree, this time, we ARE really tired. We were wondering to take MRT or take bus back.. then we decided to take a slow walk to Scotts to catch 54. But before that, we will drop by Delifrance to spend the last of our $10 voucher on cuppa.


Happy hubby wif his cuppa.

Since they were closing soon, we also made our way to the bus stop after the rest. Great, eventful and happy buying day!! =)

Dang dang tang dang!

Congratulations to Jacob and Eunice! =)

Attended the wedding mass this morning. Thank God, Debraoh came to fetch us at our hse to go to SFX for the mass. After we reached the church, gosh.. it's soooooo deep far in, if hubby and me were supposed to come for the wedding ourselves, think we will not come lor. haha..

Nice church. Big and pretty. Bride.. ok lar.. groom also ok lor. haha.. Had lunch wif the few of the RCIA ppl and also Fr Yim. Then we are on our way back home again in Debra's car.

Once we reached home, changed out then we start to do some chores, vaccumm, mopping and also washing of the clothes. Coz I was thinking since the sun is soooo strong and hot, great to sun our clothes and that leaves us free tomorrow! =)

But rather tiring to do everything lor. haha.. finally settled down to wach more VCD and for dinner, I was too lazy to cook, we tapow from the coffee shop while still glued to the TV.. this time watching XMen.

Lazy hubby, MC me.

well, nothing much to blog about except that I'm still on MC and lazy hubby took today off claiming to spend time with me. ha!

More likely, he just can't bear the thought that he has to wake up early to go to work while I can sleep in! So we both stayed home.

IT'S SUCH A SUPER HOT DAY!! Gosh.. cannot take it.

Even when the windows, fans and doors are wide open, we are still hot! hOt!! HOT!!! Spent the good deal of the day watching my VCD. Not bad the show. But a tad "too good to be true" in my opinion.

Despite my MC status, I still managed to cook porridge for lunch and make pasta with potatoe salad and green salad for dinner.

MC

Had already been under the weather since yesterday morning. But coz there is a school visit coming in the afternoon, I decided to hold off gng to the doc till today. Also.. like this can hopefully get 2 days MC. Then can get long weekend, some mre, I have already told Chua BK that I'm taking 5 Jun (coming Monday) off in lieu of the polling day on 6 May. =) Hmm... come to think of it, think I forget to tell my SEG(M) boss. Nvm, tml sms him.

And when I went to the Doc this morning, she really gave me 2 days of MC! I realldon't know to be happy or to be sad. Haha.. yar, getting 2 days of MC is great! But JUST coming back to SEG and sick... think not so good lor. But doc did say that, alot of ppl down wif sore throat, flu and cough. Cause of this? Air born. Chey! By saying that means, cannot prevent lor.

I think the doctors are earing alot these days. By the time I reached the clinic at 8.20 am (latest) I was already the 8th in queue!! Gosh.. There are just so many sick cats now. And the doctors themselves din even come in till close to 9 am! Gosh, waited for 30 mins before the doc comes and another 15,20 mins before it's my turn. Just that few mintues wif her and I am poorer by $35! Gosh.. Definately NOT cheap. But then again, after claiming $10 fm co, it's only $25 and for such a SUPER LONG weekend, I'd say it is WORTH it lor. haha.. Receipt for me to claim the miserable $10 and the precious MC for today and tomorrow. =)

Then went to the market and did my marketing for next week coz I think this weekend no time to do it, with a morning wedding mass on Sat and regular mass on Sunday and since I was already at the market, decided to go and do it on the way home. Just the regular meat and veg already costs $16.. Goodness.. And I din even buy seafood nor fruits! Hai.. things are expensive. Bought some bread and also a can of Tou Hua with soya beans for me to fill my stomach before eating the medication.

After that, then prepared to go to SA to meet Godma and bro for lunch for a belated birthday celebration. Went to Hans in Thomson Plaze. Not sure if it is I lost my sense of taste of if the food is really getting bad. My Grilled Fish Dory is really quite bland and yucks.. OILY. Bleh!!! The soup was not too bad bit the garlic toasts...another BLEH! Coffee was too swt too. And as usual, after lunch, we will sit there and yak lor. Till it's almost time, bro sent us all back to Godma's office in SA and we yakked some mre. Haha.. Stayed there for an hour or so, and when we heard the thunder outside, we decided to scot as I still need to go to J8 to get somethings. Luckily, bro passed by J8 on his way back to office, so he was able to get me a lift there.

First and moremost, a visit to the Ladies.. haha.. coz sore throat mar, drank lotsa water, then after tat to the GV to get tickets for our pre-agreed movie treat. We're gng to watch X-Men3: The Last Stand in Marina coming Monday! Hope it will be nice!

Then went to Poh Kim and Fancl, bought a whole load of things..
Does'nt look much right? heehee... But coz all the pics were taken with my sucky HP camera, can't really see wat I bought right? Well, here comes the list:
1) A box of VCD: "Devil by my side" (Highly recommended by Godma)
2) Fancl items... inclusive of tonner, make up base, eye gel and supplements for more moisture for skin.
That's all I bought and the whopping costs is $176.90!!! Goodness!
And I also bought a lanyard for myself coz we were given the thumbdrive but I need a string if not, may just loose it easily. But u know wat happened?? I threw the landyard AWAY!! *SHIT* Coz I left it in another plastic bag and I accidentally throw it away! SUCKS!!! And it costs me $4.95!! Sad sia..

Hai... but before I left J8, I went to GNC to pick up my membership card. I thought it doesn't look too bad.

Finally, after all the errands and purchases it's time to head home, by now, I am already experiencing a giddy spell (cld be the med tat is supposed to be drownsy) and in a terriable need of water. Luckily stopped raining and my bus came pretty fast too! Was home in less than 10 mins. Took my shower and then settle down to watch my new box of VCD, munch on bread and took the 2nd dosage of medicine. As I was watching the show, I did my nails with the new polish I got from TheFaceShop. Colour is quite nice.. but somehow... on my fingers... it does not look good at all!! I decided that 1 of these days, I will go and get that purple 1 I was eyeing. verdict: Nah!! Not nice :( After finishing the 2 disc, I dozed for a while and then got ready to go to my parents' plc for dinner. Usual, simple fare, nothing much.

And as hubby and I come home, guess what was in store for me in the letterbox?
A "package" fm TCC, my guess is tat it's either the membership card or some kinda promotions they having.
And true to my guess, it's THE membership card. Just in 1 day, I got 2 cards! Got to find a place in my card holder for them soon. membership card fm TCC looks exactly like their temp card! Only the material is different.

Now, though it's already 11pm+, I'm still quite awake... the drowsy med don't seem to be that sleepy after all. Or maybe, I am kan cheong to watch the "Devil" drama?? Anway... hubby has been walking over to my side pretty often.. think I will go sleep after all.. since I am supposed to be on MC.. So it's good to equip my body with lotsa rest for it to heal.

Nighty night then!

200

Without realising it, this is my 200th post! Woah.. Quite something I think. haha.

A few days ago.. the co gave us each a new toy to play with... weather it's for us to play with or to make us work harder, I don't know. But the sucks part is, this little guy here is on loan to us only hor!

Had been so busy with school visits day in day out. Finally this is the last day of the school visits for this month! Anyway, today is the last day of the month of May. But at least come June, it is the school holidays there won't be any of this kinda visits anymore till later part of the year. But sometimes, JUST sometimes, when the teachers or students sincerely show their appreciaation for the effort that we have put in for them, then I do feel that my time and energy spent is not so wasted after all. Like take this case, this.. the teacher who pushed so hard to organised this din even turn up! And just left 6 BO CHAP teachers with 240 SEC 2 kiddies with us! I was sooooo darn pissed I tell you. And to make matters worse, we had another school coming in on the same day but at a different timing.

It would definately make me feel much better if the teacher showed that she appreiciates! Gosh.. These teachers simply treat us as their dumping ground! Just give us those that they want out of school into here and we BB-sit the kiddies. Think also angry.

Today is also another classic case. The teacher called and says 80 students coming. After I checked asking her, sure, during holidays? She said yes, coz careers day, sure to come back.. then a wk ago called.. NO, emaaile me to say reduce to 25!! What the ****! Treat us as what? We got to waste manpower and things to c them also leh. Sme mre this school is not our neighbourhood school all the way in the East!! I told her, not possible for such a small group. She called back and says 60. AND, the final figure? 31! Basket!! Really darn pissed!!!

(And it doesn't help that Sak is on MC and I am under the weather, and who came to save the day?! PAUL TAN!!!) Gosh... I could go on and on bitching abt how these horrible teachers and schools make me feel.

It's either I need a change of environment or I am really really really pissed!!

moi, THE complaint queen

Feeling like a god damn complain queen this morning!

First I had to call up SINGTEL to tell them (again!) to cancel the Open Mobile thingy which I have called up months ago to cancel and when I receive my bills they are still charging me!! Pissed! They don't understand the meaning of "CANCEL"???

Next, I had to call up the Shirley of Town Council! I don't know what's wrong with either the sweepers or myself. There's alwasy uncleared rubbish at the corridor at ny doorstep. The sweepers are supposed to sweep the floor on alternate days! Then wat's with the soft drink can outside my unit for a week??!

Basket. Gets me into a foul mood!!!

N i'm not feeling in the best of health. My sore throat is worse now. Cld not sleep last nite, actually my sore throat was worst at night. When I'm in office now, it's better! strange huh? But starting to have abit of runny nose. *sigh*

OOoo... 1 mre to go.

Just remembered that I have a little velvet coin purse from M)Phosis in my collection too.

Here's a pic. =) Bought this during the Isetan Private Sale earlier this year together with Godma.

NOT again?!

Gosh!!! This is crazy. Either the shoes quality are darn lousy or that I really did LOTS of walking!

Would you believe it? I spoilt my shoes again. THIS is gonna be a record, 2 pairs of shoes spoilt 1 day after the other!! Same brand, same model just different colours!!

ARGG!!! Now I don't have a black covered toes flats!!

hmmm... But on 2nd thoughts, I think this pair of shoes already showed signs of 'tiredness' I think I saw the sole opening up some time ago but I din really pay attention to it.. So all in all.. This pair of shoes lasted me for close to 4 months. I guess, I got to be thankful for it.. after all, this pair of shoes was like less than $18!!

my M)phosis collection

Suddenly just occured to me that, I owned quite a few of M)phosis bags.

Let me do an introduction>? haha.. as follows (counter clockwise)
1) Black / White lacy sexy handbag. (Latest collection)
2) Black card holder with purse
3) Black tissue & $ holder
4) Tissue Bag
5) Silver handbag (perfect for dinner)
6) Black handbag for almost every occassion except for formal dinners

There you have it. All my M)Phosis bags.. I still have another 2 tops from them. But I seldome wear coz Hubby says it's too revealing. Sucks.

hurmpf!

Early this morning, I had to wake up earlier than usual coz I was going to prepare the soup for dinner.

Well, we are going to have chinese corn soup tonite =) so had to wake up earlier to prepare the veg and meat and throw all into the slow cooker. And by the time we go home tonite, we have a pot of hot steaming corn soup.

Then all I need to do is just fry the french beans and the chicken wing, cook rice and we can settle down to dinner.

All seems well yeah? Only thing is, this morning, I missed saying bye to hubby. =(
and I broke my pair of shoes, a pair that I've NEVER EVER worn before!! Sucks!!!
