My trip to Phuket/Bangkok

Hi friends, I'm back from my getaway trip to Phuket and Bangkok~! 5 days seems too short~! haha. Ok I shall start recalling the happenings and blog it down here. Pictures will be up on Facebook and shutterfly when I'm free, coz i got loads of mails to clear, update myself with the happenings during the missing times and unpack my luggage.

Let's start from Day 1:

Location: Phuket, Rawai
Weather: Bright and sunny

When we reach the airport, we started off by bargaining the taxi fare and/or the fee for car rental. Ended up we took a taxi, taxi drove us to car rental near hotel resort, we drove off honda jazz and follow the taxi to the hotel.

Cost for taxi:600Baht
Cost for car rental:1200Baht
Petrol:500baht

Hotel: The mangosteen resort and villa
Cost: 170 SGD
Duration of stay: 1 night

Since it's a low season period (coz supposed to have thunderstorm throughout my stay according to weather forecast) there's really no pple/tourists. So we were treated like the royals, free upgrade to a bigger room with personal outdoor jaccuzi. The room oversees the ocean as well.. and were able to see the sun rise too. After we checked in, we went out to explore Phuket, utilizing our rented car to the max- Patong, Chalong Bay, Ao Po Pier, surin beach, kata beach and... i cant remember. haha. Kinda a road trip, and we got a bit lost here and there, but luckily, Phuket's road is easy to drive.. so we always managed to reach our destination, except the Ao Po pier.. where we got really lost in nowhere and we decided to turn back. hehee

We went to central festival, a shopping centre for a walk, before goin to Patong for our dinner at Playhouse (used to known as Sphinx) where we can eat and watch hollywood type of broadway shows. It's only us, watching the show that night. Those glittering and out-of-ordinary clothings (man with tight body suits) that they wore, made me giggle non-stop. But since we are the only ones in the room, I couldnt make it that obvious and I had to resort to pinching myself to stop laughing at them... and the exaggerated moves...

The dinner and the show was expensive.. but since we were there, we had to just go for it. After that, we went back to the hotel, coz driving back takes about 35-40 mins. The streets were poorly lit and we made a few turns before finding our hotel.

Day 2:

Location: Phuket, Chalong bay
Weather: Bright and sunny

The kind owner dropped us at Chalong bay when we returned the car. Then I realised that we were taking a speedboat to The Racha - A resort on a "deserted" aka Yai Racha island.

Hotel: The Racha
Duration of stay: 2 nights
Cost: 800SGD per night

We boarded the speedboat.. a small one... and the ride took about 30-40mins. Rough ride throughout the journey.. big waves and wind... made me turned blue when i reached the port. Real moody.

The villa was really nice. with an individual pool overseeing the beach and ocean, private jacuzzi, outdoor shower place, external living room with coffee machine - the expensive kind, and a big tv. For our room, it's just beside our private pool and we had a nice view of the beach, and just ten steps away, there's a "balcony" for us to sun tan. The room was built for couples - double shower heads, double basin, double mirrors etc. hee. nice setting.

The resort also had a public infinity pool with beach view, spa facilities, common lobbies, 3-4 makan places, library etc etc. most of the activities are free (coz very ex mah), like snorkeling, snooker, mountain biking, tennis, gym etc, except ATV safari tour and Spa. Forget to mention - the prices for food and spa are charged in an EXORBITANT fee. Sigh. since they are the only ones in that island, we had no choice but to spend.

We laze around enjoying the views and utilising the facilities in the villa itself during the afternoon, until dear asked me if I wanted a surprise. Of course I do, and hence I was asked to stay in the living room, while he prepare himself in the bedroom. After a while, a paper was slotted through the small opening on the floor asking me to go back to my room. I went back was surprise to see my black dress on the bed! Besides it, there's another note to ask me to meet dear at the library, and telling me to spray the insect repellent before going out.

I went out (and nearly fell) coz it's already dark. I walked to the library and saw dear in his shirt and pants upstairs (at the library). I went up and he presented a bouquet of flowers (45 roses) and brought me to the restaurant. The restaurant waiters then guided us up to the roof top of the library, where there's a table set up in the centre. A candlelight fine dining with a view of the infinity pool and beach - just the 2 of us.

5 course dinner ended with a waitress coming up bringing a gift with her. Then dear told me that 5th June 09 was the exact date that we have been together for 2000 days. He asked me to open the gift and it was a LV coin purse.. but i didnt realised that there's a ring inside. He then took the ring, got down on one knee and popped the question. =) I agreed and when he placed the ring to my finger.. then i realised... how come no rock? wahaha.. Then he explained to me saying that the one he ordered from US is not ready yet. Hence he gotta get a temporary stand in. haha. Silly. Then, 2 guys from the bar came up to us with their guitars and sang "Now and forever" by Richard Marx. Romantic lo.. hehe.

Day 3:

Laze around again (thats the point of getaway), until evening where we witness 2 females getting married by the sunset beach. Sweet. Ya 2 females from singapore. after that we went for a body scrub and while we were heading back to the room, the waitress of the restaurant actually tell us to stay around, coz there'll be fire works shooting from the mountain, firecrackers and the kongming lantern thingy. So we stayed, ordered a complimentary drink from the bar and sat at the beach. The fireworks were beautiful.=)

Day 4:

Got up early coz we need to catch the first speedboat out to the main island at 9am. Coz we were going to bangkok to shop~!

Location: Bangkok
Hotel: Arnoma Hotel
Cost: 120SGD
Duration: 1 night
Taxi: ~600baht.

Rest for a bit after checked in, and off we went to Isetan to get the wacoal bijoux bra for sis, and myself. wahaha. Nice. Got some some panties for my nieces from little wacoal too. After we had dinner, we went to the night market for a walk and then to platinum. I got some clothes and some babies one and then the shops started to close (around 7pm). sianz. I managed to cover only the basement and level one. Hence I decided to come back the very minute it opened the next day. heh.

Day 5:

Shopped til I dropped. I got a total of 12 tops, 3 shorts, 1 covered shoes, 3 accessories, loads of makan stuff for my family, sunglasses, belts.. and dear got his polo tees, tees, 3/4 pants, luggage, slippers and food as well. We had a lot of time left.. but we were too tired to continue and we got most of the stuff we wanted and.. we were running low on cash too. hehee. so we headed to the airport early to avoid traffic jam during rush hour and had dinner over at the airport. =) Home sweet home at 1.30am.. and slept at 2am... then... gotta work.

Thats all. more or less. hee.

Exact amt spend.. have to wait til we sum up everything. heh.

Ah choo~! God bless me.

Oh no, I'm having a runny nose right now. Kept sneezing~! Must have caught a cold last night.. Thunderstorm eh?

I just popped a pill 15 mins ago. Drowsy formula. Hope that I can get well soon.. I dun want to fall sick on the eve of my holiday~!

Last weekend's summary

Friday:
Van and I didnt really have the mood to work. Was actually looking forward to YT & YD's wedding... So, when the time struck 5.30pm, both of us rush to the restroom, had a quick shower, put on make up and then "woosh" down to meet my bf, who gracefully accepted the request of sending us to the wedding at Marina Mandarin (and of course, catching a movie by himself and waited for me til dinner was over to send me home- thanks ah~!).

The wedding was fun.. Took pictures with my uni-cum-poly friends, my colleagues, and of course, the bride. hee~ YT's simply gorgeous that night. I guess all brides do yeah? hee. I felt happy for her..coz all her stress for preparations are finally over.

Saturday:
Went to town on sat, coz we thinking of getting a tripod stand, scrabble and some polo-t. We went to best denki, coz dear had slightly over 150 bucks worth of points to redeem before this month end.. We looked at the tripod and it's real expensive. Wanted to get a webcam for my lappy, so that i can have a video conference with Dear when he's at overseas trip.. but then its like... expensive too.. So end up we got nothing from there.. just hope that before the month end, we have some ideas on what to get.

Anyway, we managed to buy a scrabble travel pack at a 10% discount (+another 10% off if paid by AMEX) at Taka departmental store. Yeah~! it's cool, coz the tiles are clipped on the board (wont move around) and we can temporary close it, get down planes/trains/buses and resume the game later without the fear that the tiles will come off~! hee. We had fun playing with the game when we got home that night.. to the extend of going west coast plaza starbucks, brought a dictionary along and started the game, enjoying ice-blended choco drinks, aircon and the game. heh. (met ting's mum and family and they were surprised that I'm spending my time there.. playing scrabble. hehe)

Oh ya, not to forget, we went chinatown to get those cheap daily groceries.. and we saw a tripod stand that cost only 25 bucks~! it's much more cheaper than what we saw at best denki~! so we bought it... for our upcoming phuket trip. hee.

Sunday:
Laze around most of the time until its time for me to attend del's wedding at M hotel. Dinner was ok just that the service of the waiters were not that great. 1 thing I want to say again, Del was specially beautiful on her wedding day... probably back in attachment days in LNUS, she wasnt wearing makeup.. so when i saw her yesterday was like "wow~!" hee~~

Today:
Having typical monday blues.. not enough sleep.. but its OK~! Since i'm on leave from wednesday afternoon onwards. hee.

Office talk.

haha.. guess what, Joe just helped to change some of the damn slow pcs RAM from 512Mb to 1Gb. .. (I'm having one of those). Anyway, performance not optimal but at least it's faster~! ha. I also asked him to upgrade my firefox from version 1 to the current one. Yes~! Although the flash player remains outdated (a lot of FB applications cannot see) but still, it's way much better now~! haha. Thanks a lot~!

I really looked forward to my Phuket/Bangkok trip next week.. after working for like, 7 months in this sorta new job, it’s definitely a must to getaway. To enjoy and relax. Was mentioning at my facebook status – “routine lab work makes me feel stupid”.. I can’t imagine that my so-call “passion” for lab work has gone down tremendously. Haha.

Gone were the days in LNUS.. busy, political issues, backstabbing, badmouthing, gossiping, grievances… it’s all bad stuffs.. but I sorta enjoy and missing it. Wahaha. That’s usually the common topics at tea and lunch breaks. Despite those negative feelings from the upper management, I can still survive – with the co-encouragement from my dear colleagues last time. At least, that adds “colors” to the job, squeezing out brain juice to come up with plans, SOPs, and most importantly – tackling those upper management pple.. or rather, saving energy to gossip, to complain, and to eat snake.

Anyway, back to the main topic. I’m going to phuket - free and easy.. so anyone knows where’s a good place to go? I have absolutely no idea. Like makan places and shopping? Or somewhere the scenery’s soooo nice that I should not miss it? Please tell me by leaving a message somewhere, either here or in Facebook or sms me. Thanks a lot for the help. Hee~

Disturbed

Can you imagine I went to bed at 10.15pm, toss and turn for exactly 1 hour and couldnt sleep, hot and sweaty, I went to take a cold shower at 11.15pm, and went back to bed after that.
I'm so tired right now.

How I wish I'm with Dear in New Zealand right now. He was saying yesterday that it's only 10dC plus over there. Cold.

Contented

So happy. I ate

Fried chicken wing
Muah Chee
Fishballs
Cotton Candy
Macdonald's ice cream cone

as my dinner. *burps*

It's Friday~! Finally~! Will be catching a movie tonight.. Night at the museum. hee. Dear's leaving for new zealand at tmr evening. yes. again. He's always flying around.. so.. is it good or bad? Rest assure that up til now, I didnt complain to him that he's not having enough time with me. haha. At least he scheduled the flight to be back on next Thurs, so that he can send me to YT's wedding dinner on Friday and accompany me to Del's wedding on Sun. hee.

Just today.

A SBS bus broke now on a 2 lane road somewhere at a junction near my house. It usually takes about 1 min (by car) to go out of my carpark to reach the junction.. and today - it took approx 20 mins. See the big difference? haha

Of course, I'm late for work. Reached office and clocked in about 8.43am. First time. I cant stand the red word "LATE" reflected on my screen whenever i logged in to my ioffice. Sianz. haha. Lucky dear did a "damage control" by "speeding" with his powerful GTi.. muahaha. Exciting ride today as well. heh.

Anyway, it's a nothing-to-do tuesday.. so late is ok. wahaha. Continue to read a journal that Koby passed to me last week.. was diligently reading until he went on leave on friday and Sat.. so my brain went on leave as well. Today he's back (from Japan - why no home quarantine???), I have to switch on my working brain again..

The new scholl foot & nail cream that i bought seems to be working (i've been consistently applying the cream for 3 days) and my heels are definitely better now...

Meeting ex colleagues for lunch later on. =)

Watching movie tonight too.

Dear got a cranberry juice for me this morning.. coz he knew that cranberries good for women. hee. so sweet.

Weekend summary

Dear came back from India last Sat. I met up with Ying at JP2 before dear came to pick me up after his rest.

Ying and I went around JP2.. and I'm just like a tour guide introducing JP2 to her. haha. I dun frequent JP2 often... but that's Ying's first time there. hee~ We went walking around to find a hair clip to clip our fringes.. We saw nice but expensive ones at the first shop... hence we decided to walk around to see other choices.. In the end, we went back to the first shop. It's really quality that we were looking for. The crystals were brighter and designs were nicer.. in the end we got a total of 4 hairclips for a whooping ~80 dollars~! I never got such an expensive hairclips before.. but since I like it, I will treasure it. haha. Oh, we can return to the shop to get free replacements of crystals if our crystals happened to drop out due to wear and tear. thats good. heh.

Sunday - went to Far east plaza to get a dress for YT's wedding dinner. I have limited number of dresses.. so no harm buying lah. Time to be more feminine liao. hehee. I went into a shop - with only me as the customer, I tried on a lot of dresses.. in the end, I only got 1. A black dress, with the length just right. It's only 22 bucks~! cheap and nice. heh.

Forgot to mention, dear wanted to eat the famous ba chor mee at Crawford link before going to far east.. and he spent an hour queuing before getting the food.. and I spent an hour sitting down, waiting for food. Sigh. Dear said, due to the long waiting time.. no matter what, I must say that the ba chor mee is NICE~! hee.

We head back home early after getting the dress and using our Anderson 10 dollar vouchers for a couple vondue.... so that I can catch the last episode of the condor heroes. hehee. after that, watch the last bit of Monsters Inc on channel 5 and thats all for our day.

By the way, I created a facebook account for dear. hehe.

A nothing-to-do Tuesday.

Was asleep when dear called me yesterday. haha. Didnt expect his call and hence was fast asleep.. he will call again tonight. haha. Hope he will call me at the right time lo.. not when I am somewhere in dreamland. hee.

I think he wants to share his experience with me in INDIA lo. In the first place, the plane was full of indians... and at the point of touch down, he already sense the dust and smell.. Hope he is coping over there.. He mentioned that he has 4 internal flights to take within 5 days. Practically he's flying everyday. Plus the hot weather over there.. can die from heat stroke leh (40dC).

Later will be going out for lunch. heh. YT has only 5 bucks with her.. so going Holland drive to makan will definitely be much cheaper. Porridge + fruits < $5. haha. Want to lend her money but she just insists she doesnt want to borrow. hehe. Good. Got backbone. wahaha

Looking at the calendar, it will only be 3 weeks to my holiday in phuket and bangkok. Really looking forward to a break lo. hehee. It's been a year since I last went for a holiday.

2 weeks later will be Adel's and YT's wedding dinner.. which will definitely cost me a bomb. The month of May is really a high maintenance one.

Pretty flowers

SL bought for us soap flowers from O2 skin. hee~ She said that they looked colorful and hence decided to get all the colors~!

Lavender: Kal
Yellow: Nic
Red: ZX
Green: Gly
Pink: Gin
Blue: Me.

Thanks once again to SL~!

Fish Spa

Went for a pre-celebration of mother's day today~! hee. Took mum to sentosa today for a fish spa package, including a foot reflexology and a shoulder massage. The fish spa is ticklish~!!! It gets better after a while. I guess KK's feet is really dirty lo.. a lot of fish swam over to his side~! hahaa. The foot reflex was average, and the head and shoulder massage felt good. Guess what, that auntie that did the massages for me was Linda Ho. hahaha. The pictures are up in facebook.. check out the name tag... or you can click on the link to the pics on the right column. Oh ya, took mum to the underwater world. Her first and the last time bah. I wont go there again. Expensive, small and CROWDED. It's flooded with - indians. Even at the dolphin lagoon, the place was literally flooded with indians. Who say singaporeans are kiasu? if you are there, you can see how they cut queue, how they bump pple etc etc. Irritating. Worst than those chinese from you-know-where.

Dinner was at Vivo, the nonya and baba restaurant. There food was good. Will visit them again to try the curry fish head. hee~

Review

Recently I bought an OPI cuticle avoplex cuticle oil on-the-go (with attached brush) at Far east shopping center. Being free and having nothing to do today, I went to do an online search. Guess what, it is cheaper to buy it online. Singapore site free shipment. Sigh. Felt being cheated. wahaha. Plus, the oil seems to become gel-like lo. Difficult to press out.. like kena stuck. Low grade item I must have gotten. (it's not like I dun use it for a long period of time.. i use every 2 days still can clot~! Ridiculous~!)

This evening

Met Ting yesterday to have dinner and she gave me this:



A wristlet from Victoria's secret~! Thanks a lot~! I've been wanting to get a wristlet for sometime liao..although its a bit small, but I still like it~! Thank you~! *Muackz*



Here's a picture of doraemon... haha. we took it in Iluma shopping center.. arcade area. Just before we watched Taken.



Can you see KK inside the mouth of doraemon? haha~



Then we got our..... VW GTi~!!! cool. Here's only the picture of the car key.. haha.. will post pictures of the car when I have them.





I also got a jean and perry memory pillow at plaza sing. gonna use it tonight. heh. hope i have a better sleep tonight, without any sores or shoulder aches.

I am forgotten -讲讲就算了。

Talked to YT online just a moment ago. She forwarded an email to me sent to the molecular team by our supervisor. After reading it, I felt a bit demoralised. I felt just like an abandon kid. I was in LD unit and currently I'm in fusion unit. I was rotated to the current unit months ago. The 4 of us were supposed to be rotating between 2 units - thats the initial plan, with the supervisor in the loop. Now after reading the mail, seems like I am permanently in the fusion unit now.

It's not like I dislike the work.. I am fine being in whichever unit as long as ZX, YT and VH are with me. however, sometimes its like you are eating plain bread for sooo long and sometimes you just want to add some flavor to it. That's why the idea of rotation came in. I'm disappointed in my supervisor for the way he handle things..

Sigh. Anyway, it's just the sudden rush of emotions. I'll be a happy girl tmr. hehee. 讲讲就算了。

Tired but a Happy Monday

I woke up in the middle of the night feeling very uncomfortable. I was having a nightmare i guess.. Now my neck and shoulders are very very sore.. Sigh.. I need a massage...

Then I overslept 15 mins. Was not late for work coz i did my normal preparations in turbo speed and not draggy.. hee~ lucky my mum got up early today and woke me up. Hm.. this new handphone of mine has this alarm-clock-vibrations-too-soft issue.. i guess i have to increase the volume of the alarm, since i cant do anything to the vibrations. heh.

Took leave on wed.. and we will be getting our new car on Wed~! hee.. Driving the new car to catch a movie. cool~! Excited~!

Now waiting for the pc in the lab to be connected to LAN, so that we can process the results and proceed to the next cell culturing.. Stupid PC+network.

Done with stuff in the lab. Was joking and sharing the "those were the days" in the lab with the girls. so farnie lo... never knew that YT can be so wild. wahaha... laugh til i teared.

Post

Did I mentioned that there's a pond with kois just right outside my office building? It's a nice place to laze around, and to take a break off work.. Getting a teh-peng from the foodcourt, or ice-cream from 7-11 or muffins from the bakin boys, sitting with my friends and chat/gossip a bit. hehee~



This is a pic of my desk. See the crampiness? No place for files, for my munchies my barang barang, no phone too. haha. it's actually only 80cm long. Worse then my study desk at home. It doesnt even have space underneath for a drawer to put my stuffs.. and my drawer is somewhere at the back of my office.. and yeah, i have to walk there, like how you put your bags in locker when you go clubbing or swimming. That's why I dont even bother to use that. My bag is always on the floor, kena stepped by myself lo. haha. It's only now that I use the bag hanger to hook it... Oh ya, forget to mention, the CPU is under my desk. Lagi worse. Takes up space too.. but 1 benefit, I use it as a foot stool lo. wahaha.



Ok, let's talk about yesterday. ha. Went to Nana's house after work for a shower and makeover session, to get ready for the partying at St James yesterday.

The main motive of Nana was to help me with my eyes... so I took a shower, put on light makeup, and she started her work.. I tried to take the pictures of before and after.. but then after loading the pics in my lappy, the pictures are very blurry.. so i decided not to put them up here. After all, the effect of putting on fake lashes are quite good. I'm just not used to heavy eyelids... hence i feel that my eyes are going to close anytime. haha. plus putting on contact lenses after a gap of so many years... i need time to get use. one thing for sure, removing eye makeup was a chore.

Overall at st james was enjoyable. watching how Allan lose to WX in the games.. haha. So silly. They left early around 12.. but they already drank a lot liao. EL stayed behind and then got so high lo.. SY and WX also maxed out liao. wahaha. Gim was like social butterfly, going tables to tables.. I think she either met her friends, or she's just high too. wahaha. Gim's sis+ husband+friends were there as well lo. what a crowded night.

Reached home about 3 plus.. slept around 3.40am. Tired.

*Deep sigh*

I want to do something. I want to work. Seems like there's really nothing to do. Probably research on something online.. but what? I dun have a clear guide or an objective.. So I cant start.

Want to play games - Office PC too slow.

Want to chat online - can, but have to make the browser sooo small and not noticeable.

Want to read magazines - No no. Too obvious that I'm slacking..

Want to snack? - I'm snacking too much and right now, food is at the top of my oesophagus.

Best method to waste time at current - Toilet-ing. Haha. It takes about 100 steps from my desk to the ladies.. Do business regardless of big or small, wash hand thoroughly according to the handwash guidelines, stand in front of the dryer to blow dry my hands.. and walked to the mirror and start tidying outfit and hair.. then takes about 100 steps back to my desk. Great. Do everything slow and steady. 10 mins gone. wahhaha

Guess what, I just realised that my desk is very dusty.. hence, time to clean up desk~!

Done. What's next? Washing water bath. Argh~ I dun want a job like this~! Might as well go and be an ISS cleaner lo. "Auntie ah~ I come join u. Where's the uniform ah?"

Ongoings

I'm glad that Baby-chan's ulcers were due to "heatiness" and not HFMD, coz we monitored her over the weekend and she was better each day, instead of developing those symptoms that the doc asked us to watch out for. She's now able to eat and sleep, and of course, play and shout.. heh. I like this healthy cute baby-chan.

Yesterday I went to Orchard to meet Nana. She got her stella Mc. perfume and I checked out the price of my hugo boss femme. Cheap. It's at lucky plaza - dollars and scent. Will get it when my bottle finishes.=)

We walked around somehow aimlessly in Taka (but going into shoes and clothes shop) but didnt manage to get anything. Just when we were munching (nana having her late lunch), we then decided to go and get contact lenses. (by the way, we also went to Blvgari and Cartier - too look for any possible wedding bands.. haha~! I know that's too early but just see see only~! Cartier - 1300+ per ring and Blvgari - 1100+ per ring) and LV, Gucci to see what's new in store. It's only with Nana that I dare to walk into those expensive shops. dunno why. wahaha.

Back to contact lenses, we popped into a shop "Alexis" and they were having a promotion for 1 day acuvue moist. 5+1 for 285 bucks, hence Nana decided to share with me so that I dun have to get so much - just in case I'm not suitable (Thanks~!).

We then walked to Far east to continue shopping around... and in the end, we got to a shop and the shop sells korea/jap/taiwan girls stuff.. Nana bought the liquid-eyeliner-cum-glue for fake lashes, plus the glue remover for that. hehe. I bought an OPI cuticle oil on the go. (Tube with attached brushes so that I can squeeze and use it whenever needed - Convenient!) Nice~!

Dinner was at Shaw, when Nana had her munchies from Long John Silver and I had my Subway sandwich.. After that, we went home. =)

This thurs we're going st james again for a post celebration to WY's wedding... nana asked me to go her house after work, so that she can do her eye makeup + fake lashes for me.. and of course, it's time to use my newly bought contact lenses~!

August Rush

Watched August Rush and Kungfu Panda at dear's house just now.

August Rush is a beautiful show. It's touching. It's sweet. It's a happy ending.

Episodes

The whole family didnt had a good rest yesterday. Yixin was crying the whole night every now and then. Running a fever, saying "嘴巴痛痛，肚子痛痛，牙齿痛痛。" She couldn't get herself to sleep... and the same goes for us as well. I'm worried about her. She has had fever before, but not to the extend of not sleeping and not eating.

They just went to the doctor this morning and yet to return. I hope everything is fine.

I cant believe that my brother values the computer more than Yixin's health. 10 mins before going to the doctor, he switched on the PC and started his Tribal war game.. when MY and Yixin were standing at the gate waiting for bro to open the door, he just replied "wait for a while. very fast". 3 mins gone and both of them were still standing at the gate waiting. I was angry and said " i think you better go and see the doc yourself. No point waiting for him". Indeed, MY brought yixin to the doc, saying she will wait for bro downstairs.

Another 5 mins gone and bro was still on the PC. Mum was very angry with him for valuing the online game more than anything else. After all our nagging, he then start to shutdown the PC. Sigh.

Ok. They just came back. doctor said Yixin has 2 big ulcers at the back of the mouth. We have to monitor now to see if it is just pure heatiness or really HFMD. Coz usually HFMD will be full blown after 2 days, with red patches and more ulcers. If the ulcers are gone after 2 days, then it's just pure heatiness.

I'll be going to dear's house later, packing lunch for him and then watch movies with him before he flies off in the night to Birmingham.

I dun have a good night rest. Was woken up by my niece at around 4.30am. she puked twice coz she's not feeling well. POor girl. She was running a fever... hope by this morning when she wakes up she'll be fine. I asked mum to monitor her whether she has signs of dengue or HFMD, coz recently there were cases of dengue fever in our area (to the extend that the MP Arthur Fong came down personally door to door to tell us to be vigilant, and gave us the covers for holes to hold the bamboo). Just to be safe then sorry, it's better to take note of my niece, rather then thinking it's a normal fever or cold.

I'm planning to take mum out on the 9th May to sentosa for mother's day. Was utterly bored in office the past days and hence got the ample time to think and plan on where to bring mum. It's been some time since i last took mum out... (i know mum likes the fountain of wealth in Suntec and wants to go there again. haha) but i decided to take her for the Fish Spa~! hee. The package includes a foot reflexology session and head+shoulder massage.. Since she likes massaging, I shall bring her there for a try.. and a "surprise". But first of all, i have to call and make an appt. Hope that there's slot for 3 pax~!

Waiting for hair to dry now... Reached home around 10 plus from dinner with my colleagues. We went to big "O" for dinner and dessert. JS brought her little cutie pie along... so cute~~ felt like pinching her cheeks.. but then i managed not to. wahaha. I enjoyed the car ride to wheelock, when she sang her fav song "oh my". Looking forward to more makan outings~!

Work done. There's nothing to do again. Sianz.

Just realised a bad point on my new phone. The battery talk time is only 1.8hrs~! Thats terrible eh. imagine a fully charged phone and i start calling my best friend, chats and then 1.8hr later the phone is dead. Thats the shortest talktime among all my phones lo. I realised this coz I charged my phone yesterday evening and this morning the phone dropped to 2 bars (full bar is 5). Imagine the phone is on standby while i'm asleep leh.. how can the batt drop so fast?
I'm going to monitor the duration of the battery life. Coz I wanna see if it's the battery problem or the phone problem.

Meeting friends up for dinner around my house this evening.

Dear's coming back home too. =)

Heaven and Hell.. (not in terms of work)

Never thought that there's actually boring times in my current company. I used to think that research (lab) work will be busy like hell.. but no. Recalling those times in my previous company, during those lull periods like now, my gang were sure to be occupied with long tea breaks, or, watching videos/listening to CDs, munching snacks, chit chatting as well as playing online games in our own private office. That was heaven~~. hee. Cant find another job that is this good. just imagine... lab tech also have own office leh~~ So peeps who are still in Lilly, cherish the free time you guys have over there... coz if you come to the outside world, you cant expect the same.

Ok, just an update of what I did over the weekends...

Friday:
Went to JP to meet dear for dinner.. but never to know that the guy that's selling his car to dear had the time to meet him.. so dear went back home and borrowed a car from his friend. A manual car. haha. Lancer. Too chio already - black car with red body kit. Typical malaysian ah beng's car. haha.. no choice. all his roommate's cars are manual one.. so dear had to try driving one.. not too bad for him lah... always just nice engine stalls when he was in the carpark slot. wahaha. Back to the topic, we went to the condo to meet the guy, paid him the deposit and we will be getting the car from him on the first week of May ba.. coz dear will not be around til end of this month.. Yeah~! Hope that his loan gets approved lo. Then we drove to eat stingray.. and after that, it's my turn to drive back home. Scary~! That's my first time driving a manual car after passing for 2 years~! But afterall, I still remember lah. no engine stall for me. I manage to park the car too. *proud*. In the end, when we got out of the car, dear dropped my phone and my water bottle, got them both scarred.

Sat:
I mentioned in my previous post it's a R and R day. until dear came and we were both complaining about the heat and off we went for dinner at IMM. =)

Sun:
Another sunny day. Went for a late lunch with mum and to NTUC to get my fav cookies (for office). Then I went to meet Sis at Toa Payoh hub and get my new PHONE~! hee. Samsung ultratouch S8300. Nice. Full touch screen with a slide out keypad when you just feel like using it. hee~ Cool. Good for busy pple on-the-go, without having to look at the onscreen keypad. Still new to this phone.. will be loading music (as ringtones) and Pics (wallpaper) tonight when i get home. heh. Dear's not around, but i'm busy.

Today is R&R day. Rest and relax.

Got up in the morning at around 9.30am, laze around, did a spa scrub, then a face mask, took a nap, got up, ate something, dear came and then we went IMM for a walk and dinner... and now, back home watching tv.

Everything will be perfect if the weather is not so HOT. Summer days eh.

Dear's now on the way to airport. Melbourne and sydney.. then UK.. although dear said that he's going there for work and he's very stress... but I still want to say.... "I'm so envious.. and I wanna go~!"

I'm tired.. Today's friday. The dinner supposed to be tonight is postpone til further notice. So tonight i will meet kk for a date, with the start of the "commoners" life without a car. haha~

A lot of things ran through my mind yesterday. Family, friends, work etc. It's really tough making choices and making decisions. Sometimes I just feel like running away, running away to somewhere far, to cool myself down, to keep my objectives clear. hm.. since I cant run away far, all I can do is to stay at home this 2 days over the weekend, to think of what I should do next.

Just done with company lunch. (Welcome plus bday celebrations). The pizzas and the cake is not enough for me lo. haha. Went down to get muffins. hee~ Will heat it up later after labwork to savour it. wahaha. yum yum~!

Anyway, dear's going away for a business trip again. on and off till the end of Apr.. I have the nights spared for my friends then. haha.

Goodbye mazda, beautiful babe.

"The 2nd last day to seeing the Mazda 3". - That's what dear reminded me yesterday. Today is the day where the car will be passed to the car dealer. KK has sold his car... and the next car (we are still looking) will be OUR car. haha. I will chip in a little (to cover the transfer fees), and then he will have to pay the rest.. so.. that makes me part of the owner liao. wahaha.

It's been years with this mazda 3.. we had our happy and sad times in there. We used it for countless times such as day to day activities, bdays, celebrations, anniversaries etc.. This car had been through ups and downs itself... and its still serving good. It's a little sad to see it go.. but "new one wont come unless the old one goes" right?

Goodbye beautiful babe.. You will be missed.

Random

Menses are painful. it's been a while since I had it soooo painful that I need to take painkillers. What makes it worst, I forgot to bring pads with me. Lucky my dear colleague has painkillers and spare pads to give it to me. haha.

Anyway, seems like WY's wedding havent ended~! every brothers and sisters are still talking about it... the montage, the photos etc. Everything is so well planned and enjoyable~ Hm.. i'll have to aim for this kind of wedding the next time. =)

Good news for dear about the red GTI he is aiming. haha. Good news for me too.. I will have the chance to drive a new (yet old) car. haha. Happy happy~!

I'm back from JB ytd. hee

I really enjoyed myself there. We went in on Sat and it was raining real heavily...luckily that didnt dampen our mood. We reached there just in time for dinner.. I really loved the suite that she booked for us at grand paragon hotel. Must really cost her a bomb. There's a big living room and small kitchen area, and 2 big bedrooms and 2 bathroom. every room there's LCD tv attached to the wall. Nice.

After dinner, we went to KTV just 1 level above our room. The KTV room was huge~! It can contain about 20 plus pple. Hee~ The brothers all could sing really well eh. Too many pple liao.. cant remember all their names. hence we attached names to pple like "the liu qing yun lookalike" and Lee hom - a guy who can sing Leehom's song very well. hehee. I was labelled as Zhang Huimei. haha. so paiseh lo... but proud lah. that means I can sing well too. heehee

The gatecrashing game went smoothly. and the videography man was really full of ideas, making the whole event fun and enjoyable. The dinner was fun - as the brothers and sisters gotta pair up and march in first, and then step aside, opening a pathway to let the bride and bridegroom to pass.. meanwhile showering rose petals on them. hee. The dinner was good too. hee. I loved the MV that they did for mark and hazel. hee~

Thanks to the both of them for letting us enjoy the event soooo much. It really paid off for the time and effort both of them put into. Thanks for the big angbao and the privilege for being a sister as well~!

I really cut short a lot of things that happened, focusing on just the happy things.. Lazy to blog lah. The whole weekend would be perfect if not for the police and snatch thief thingy that occurred on separate days. Just be warned for those travelling to JB, please be careful of your personal belongings.

Good Friday, Good night.

I worked today. worked on a good friday. It's nice once in a while, where my favourite colleagues were the only ones in the office - no one else.

I packed subway for all of us before going to work.. and YT bought each of us 3 curry puffs. I cant finish lo... I dun take breakfast usually... but i ate one, since it smells realllly nice. hehe. thanks ah.

After work, dear and I went PS and then cathay in hope that we can get at least side seats for the movies.. but no luck. First row is definitely a no no. haha. Hence we walked around, sat down and chat over dinner. hee.

There's a lot of things running through my mind these 2 days.. ya, what else but financial thingy happening in my family... and some other things. haha. I'm not going to post it out here.. just want to say that I have to look at things positively... and just, dun care anymore.

Going to JB tmr. haven really "packed" what I need during the 1 day stay.. makeup, dresses and some other small miscellaneous items. I'm so tired right now... but I will just hang on for another 30 mins to go and pack them.

Good night.

swelling..

I woke up in the middle of the night feeling a sharp pain in my right eye. I rub it gently (real gently) and then it started tearing. lots of tear. I kept wiping off the tear, did reiki to my eye and went back to sleep.

I got up in the morning and couldnt open my right eye~! So painful. I quickly used eyedrops to wash, then I looked in the mirror to see a disgusting sight. the membrane (translucent white) was all swollen! (looked like it's going to burst if i poke it). I rested for a while, took my shower and the swell subsided a bit. Hence, I dressed up and was going to work.. (but i'm still feeling discomfort whenever i blinked my eyes). I took my bag and went downstairs and dear was waiting for me. Then I showed him the eye and he took me to see a doc.

Waited for quite a while before the patient before me came out. Was given MC and antibiotic ointment - which is darn difficult to be applied.. and now I'm resting at home. Will rest my eyes for a bit after i finish this post.

damn. I already had small eyes. and now? even smaller lo.

woohoo~!

It is rare that all the Japanese aka big bosses are all away for the rest of this week from today. No government~!

My weekend ended so fast...

Sat:

Went to the market and NTUC to get ingredients for making rojak. hee. Dear got the rojak paste from Penang and wanted us to try it. It's really tasty~! We had some leftovers of fruits.. hence we left it til Sunday for 2nd round. heh. Then around evening time, dear, mum and I sat down at the dining table and drank Choya. relaxing~! Mum and my face turned red after drinking. Our family is really sensitive towards alcohol..

Sun:

Went out early in the afternoon to volkswagon showroom to view the newly launched Golf. It's raining cats and dogs lo.. but volkswagon was nice enough to have their staff holding umbrella under the rain and shelter us whenever there's a car coming in to view the cars. Poor staff.. most of them were drenched. We approached the staff for test driving.. and I sat behind. Dear was not use to continental car.. wiper and signal were switched. haha. (and it's still drizzling at that time). I felt uncomfortable as dear stepped on the brake too hard.. or rather, the brake was new.. hence very sensitive. made me wanna puke if test driving any longer. haha

Thoughts

Continuing frm the previous post, I did tried reiki on my bf.. but then he didnt feel anything. Yesterday i tried again on his back, he felt numbness. haha. Somehow, i kept asking for feedback from the pple that i did reiki.. somehow, it's a kinda reassurance that this thing works.

I have a lasik pre-evaluation on 18th April. Initially it's with Na and PY.. but Nana had some pre-existing conditions and after some advice from her friends, she decided to not go for it. So left me and PY. Never did I thought that PY also back out.. so left me alone. Sigh.

Tonight meeting my ex-colleagues for a gathering. =) Seems like I'm spending a lot recently. Haha. Like my friends said, I have the spending power already (not to forget, peer influence). Plus, keeping track of how much I earned and how much I save is indeed a risk. A risk in overspending, having a mindset that I still have remainings. In addition, having the mindset that this amount can be earned just in a X amount of month. What to do? I cant control myself~!

Reiki

I'd finished the course for Reiki over the weekend with Nat and Apr. I'm currently able to act as a medium (conductor) to use the positive (natural/universal) energy to "heal" a living thing. Although i said heal, it doesnt mean that I am a doctor/witch doctor etc. I can only help a living thing to ease/alleviate/reduce pain and discomfort, boost immune system by positive energy etc etc. I'm still new towards this. So I need to practise more to open up my chakra channel.

I did Reiki on mum yesterday and I'm happy that she's able to felt those certain points where my hands were hovering. Warmth and pressure. I was telling mum, by helping her to do reiki, we were actually using the time for bonding as well.. hee =)

I slept around 11 yesterday. Consider early, coz dunno for what reasons, I was unable to go online. Anyway, the point I'm getting is - I'd a flu today (which is rare, unless I slept late). So I believe this is the 21 days cleanse (detox) after learning reiki. According to the master, he said that we will experience changes on our body such as emotional, physical and mentally. Gosh - I really hope there's no dramatic changes to me.

I think I need to practise more for my reiki.. and I'm waiting for Nat to come back to my unit, so that we can heal each other. If not, pple may think that we are going crazy. haha. Plus, I'm also waiting for dear to come back and be my test subject. hehe. I hope that he can feel my "power" wahahaa.

Low threshold for funny stuff

Went fusionopolis for lunch today. With Nana and Vivi. It's been a while since i last ate prawn noodles. Nice. The teh peng taste better than biopolis's also. Intend to visit there more often. hee.

Dear now should be on a plane now. Flying to Manila. He'll be back on Thurs, and Friday he will be off to Penang again. Busy Busy for him~! it's ok~! I have my dates with me as well. This weekend going to learn Reiki with YT. hee~ so curious~! Wonder how it works. I hope that I will be serious on that day and not laughing around.. i have a low threshold for funny things. wahaha.

Pictures

Ok, since I have the time today, I shall blog with pictures~!

First of all, still remember I went for a gathering with my uni friends at Waraku fine dining restaurant? The food there tastes great. This was what I ordered - set meal that comes with sushi and soba. Yummy Yummy~!





Then we went Dempsey's bens and jerrys where there's live band. We werent there for the live band.. coz we wanted to chat.. in the end, we were sitted right in front of them, just beside the speakers. Nevertheless, we managed to talk by "shouting" and writing pieces of notes to pass around. =) I miss those days where we were in the lecture room, doing the same thing..
Anyway, this was the chef's special I ordered, supposed to have warm choco oozing out when I cut it... guess the choco was not warm enough. Plus, it's a tad too sweet.

Ok, next - yesterday. We (ex-lilly) gathered at bugis, walking around intending to find a white dress for myself but found none.. sigh.. either too fanciful (to me) or the dresses are too short. Nevermind, I still have time. We had our dinner at double bay - a australian restaurant at Raffles city shopping centre. I had shepherds pie.. NICE~! I will definitely go there again. The other had fish and the tastes were good as well. Slightly a bit over priced, but once in a while should be ok. =)

Then we went Equinox. The bar at 70th storey of swissotel. My first time there. The scenery's sooooo beautiful~! Will need to bring dear there one day. We watched the sunset there..









I dun really have a good camera to capture the most beautiful scenery.. as the sky got darker, it's more difficult coz I couldnt use flash.. hence the last pic was taken with camera on table (to totally reduce shakiness from hands).

Vi's hubby was kind to drop us home that night. Thanks~! Hope to have another gathering soon.

Oh ya, talked about lasik with the girls.. the enthu nana suggested to call the clinic to book a consultation for 3 pple to see if we are suitable for the surgery. haha~ she's so on lo. The appt will probably on mid april.

Hungry

I am literally counting down the days that dear will be back. There are too many things popping out here and there that makes me want to share with him. haha~ True indeed, absence makes the heart grows fonder. haha~

Went to OG Orchard point for shopping (private sale for members) with Nana. Thanks to ZX - she mentioned it to me and then she passed me the coupon entry for guest. I bought 2 tops and a SUPER push up bra that can immediately upsize a cup. wahaaha Comfy comfy leh... Thanks Nana for telling me this superbra existed.. for the poor "little" me. wahahaa. Na got herself towels, the bra that i mentioned and SK-II starter kit. I have been using SK-II treatment essence for about a month liao and i think it really works~! haha. Now my face is not so oily.. so no need to blot my face that often~!

Also, planned a "shopping" trip on Sat with PY,JY. VT will be joining us for dinner. hee~ JY mentioned a australian kinda restaurant she went yesterday makes me drool when I think of it now... They have shepherd's pie~!!! It's been a loooong time since I last tasted it. Days of attachment in Brisbane..didnt treasure good food when you can almost eat them everyweek for a consecutive of 4 months. So gotta grab the chance since there's the authentic australian restaurant..

Food~! So hungry now!

Flu

I'm having a runny nose now. Sianz. not intending to take mc since it's more than half day gone. Haha. Seems like I kept falling sick since i join this company. Fengshui not good ah.

Had a chat about lasik with colleagues over lunch today. Apparently this procedure is getting common and cheaper nowadays. Very tempted to go for it. I need support and some suggestions and advice. haha. Particularly from my dear. =) *winkz*

Geez

Added image removed. Didnt know that the added images only worked for my lappy. It's messed up when I used company's browser to view. Wasted my time yesterday.

Added image

I wonder why there is a huge different in font size when reading my blog using internet explorer 7 and firefox 3.. Gave up adjusting the font.. and I think now it's big enough to read comfortably. haha

Anyway, felt bored and went thru blogskins.. found a skin I like, but the html code is completely messed up.. I wonder why the author didnt bother to check before posting them online for others (like me) to use it. So, since I cant use the layout, I just took the image and placed in over here. So no layout change - just a change in background color, added image and change in font/font size. I wonder if I should credit the image from deviantart, or should I give credit to the author (who make me noticed this image).

Tmr's wed. Mid-week. I'm getting bored in the evenings.. maybe i should ask someone out for shopping one day.. but who leh? sighz.. all my friends look so busy nowadays...

I think I'll turn in now. There's really nothing much for me to do lo. Eyes are tired and i dun wanna strain my eyes further by watching anime or movies or playing games. Nights.

Reiki

A colleague wants me to learn Reiki with her. I'm considering it if I can feel it. Reiki is a kind of healing force. I still remember back in LNUS, Mary Goh used her reiki towards me. I didnt feel anything at that time. I'm not sure it works only for those who believe. The course is only 6 hours in total, and it cost about 400 bucks. It's a bit costly for a 6 hr course.. but who knows reiki may work for me and I can use it to heal my friends, relatives and family. Anyway, I have to see if I can feel the force first bah.

Zzzz

Dear accompanied me to watch the Japanese movie "Departures" today, sacrificing his resting time before another flight to korea in early morning on Sunday. It is a really nice movie that touches me way deep into my heart. I kept tearing throughout the movie... The movie was a perfect one if not for the stupid auntie and uncle who kept rattling about the plot of the movie. Stupid. I was so hot that I said "Diam ah" but apparently either they didnt hear it, or they choose to ignore it, or worse, they dont think they are the ones making noise. Damn them.

Oh ya, before the movie, we went to Benten cafe to have our lunch... their cups were wayyyyy too dirty (with floating particle and sediments) and the food are too salty. Sigh.. I guess I'm extra picky when it's my time of the month.

Anyway, enough about them. I enjoyed the gathering with Nic, Kal, SL, Gin, WY... last friday and I'm glad that I asked ZX along. =) We ate Waraku fine dining and it really tasted good. We had a return voucher about 62 bucks and we make a point that we will meet up on April to meet for dinner again. hee~ After dinner, it's dempsey bens and jerry for ice cream. Yummy yummy~

Supposed to have clubbing session today.. but then due to pple falling sick, my time of the month and my dear's only free day.. we decided to postpone til further notice. heh.

I'm getting sleepy over here. Goodnight guys.

Mixed feelings.

Heard many complains from a colleague. I can see myself as her when I was back at LNUS. The same frustrations, the same kind of anger. I thought pure research is not the same as my previous company, but it is. As long as people exists, problems exists.

It makes me ponder on what I should do next..where i will be next and what is my true desire, hope and interests are... anyway, I've somehow decided.

Waiting for dear to come back (for 24hrs on Sat) before he flies again on Sunday. I really want to catch the jap movie "Departure" but than sadly Gim is not free and dear is not around.. even if he is around, i guess he needs to unpack and pack again.. so I guess the best solution is... to catch it myself~! haha~ See first lah. I guess most pple know, I dun like to do things alone. but who knows, I can learn to be independent!

These 2 days I'm really happy working.. talking and cracking jokes, laughing til I teared. It's been a while.. I have nice colleagues I can say.

Slight headache

I had a slight headache from this morning til now.. hope that it will go away soon.. Tmr's a busy day.

Dear should be in bangkok now.. another shopping heaven for singaporeans.. I want to go for a shopping trip again~!!!! Have to bear for a bit until i have sufficient leaves to take. Sigh..

I'd laughed so hard til I teared today in the lab.. Talking to YT is really fun lo. haha.. I guess we have somehow the same frequency and hence jokes (lame and crappy) can get through to her. haha. I found myself talking more in this current unit. which is good.. hehe~

Take care dear.

Sent dear to airport this morning. Dear will be on and off going overseas for the rest of Mar. I guess he wont be able to taste homecooked food for 3 weeks then. hee~ Of course, I'll seize the opportunity to meet him up when he is back for like 24 hrs before the next flight. Time's crucial for him. haha

As for me, I wont have anyone to drive me to work and fetch me off work. Gotta get up 10 mins earlier everyday to hop on the squeezy sardine train.. walk a distance and up a steep slope before reaching the office.. sigh. I guess I'm overtly pampered... or in other words, I'm just well taken care of. =)

Hope that next week will be an enjoyable one. Since dear's not around, I'll take the chance to call up friends for dinner... or a movie. heh.

BBQ yesterday

Yesterday our company held a BBQ at Dr Matsubara-san's condo, The Carribean. The condo is really nice.. very big pool, big fountain, surrounded by the sea, nice view, can see the cable cars etc.. haha. Took some pics and they are loaded at my picture site. =)

I enjoyed taking pictures, bbq-ing, sharing nice food and joking around with my colleagues.. This is really a good session for bonding, pulling me closer to my colleagues, who will soon become my friends. =) Ibelieve.

I miss my mummy~!

I asked my bro to close the kitchen window yesterday night when I heard a sudden gush of wind following raindrops but he didnt move an inch.. hence i went to close the window myself and never thought to have nearly hit by a fallen bamboo pole from upstairs. I was in a state of shock for that instance coz it just missed me by half a cm~! That brother of mine heard me shouted and then kept laughing at me.. hmph~!

Today's mum coming home.. I miss mummy~! I'm gonna give you a big hug when I go home tonight. Sorry that I will be home late.. coz there's company's bbq after work at my GM's house.. - the Carribean. I heard that his place is a nice one and so i want to go and check that out. haha.

I've always been thinking, what do i want for myself, and wat do I want to do in future... as always, I cant find the answers to my own questions..

The only thing i know is that, I am contented to what I have now. That's probably why I cant find answers.

Tonight

Meeting my excolleagues for dinner tonight. We are all working in different companies.. so finding a time and date to fit everyone is really difficult. So, we have to enjoy gossiping (as usual) as much as possible. heh.

Mum's 3rd day in Macau. Hope she's having fun there. I wanna thank dear for helping me to send mum to the airport, and fetch her when she returns on Friday afternoon. See, he's even better then mum's own children~! haha.. Mum will dote on dear more liao. wahaha.. plus points for him~! I miss mum... and her morning milo for me~~ Surprisingly, Dad now folds his blanket every morning when he got up from sleep.. instead of lying it there for mum to do it.

Oh ya, I've temporary switch role with another colleague to her unit.. which means i have more things to learn~! hee~ Good or bad? I wouldnt know.. until I get use to everything.

Cant imagine that my company is so poor thing. They took away the pencil holder they gave me to give to a newcomer coming on Monday. haha. It's ok, since i dont use it... but i think they are too observant to see that I have 2 pencil holders... (1 is my personal item). Anywayz...

Work's been getting fine.. just that I kept having small mistakes here and there.. i guess thats the learning curve ya. Sometimes may feel a bit disappointed at myself, but i get over when it's after 5.30pm. haha. It's not good mentally to bring work home.. which sometimes I do, like the recent report... and some protocols to make notes.

Just now went to SC house for a gathering.. I like gatherings.. talking, chatting, updating about each other's ongoings.. seems like I'm getting older.. or rather more mature. haha. Nana and Vi counting down the days they left in Lilly.. and I am counting down on the days they come here and probably have lunch with me. =) I've already mark down in my calendar on the date they are coming over to biopolis. =) Sweet.

I've been sick this few days.. no scent, not much taste due to terrible nose block.. was on MC yesterday and I'm quite ok now.. except that i still have the nasal sound in me. haha. Dear describe this nasal sound "the act cute sound" haha~ Even my colleagues kept asking me if I'm ok.. coz I do look pale during working... Thanks for the concern... and I'm happy to know that there are pple who care about me. they are so nice =)

Resting at home during the weekends.. Will be cancelling the KTV session supposed to be tmr.. too sick to go to ktv.. despite that I have the craving for a long long time liao.. Another time perhaps? When I'm feeling better. hee~

Talk about cravings, I have a craving for tuna mayo sandwich.. haha~ Ate a bit of tuna mayo yesterday.. but that's not enough! Will be getting the tuna sandwich from subway for lunch tmr. I must satisfy my craving... if not like very itche leh. wahahah.

finally, its over

I'm so so tired today.. felt like i can drop to dead sleep any time i closed my eyes. Should have applied for half day or something today.. but since i'm halfway through, i guess i will work my way through.

Ting's wedding

I'm excited that the fact it's Ting's wedding tmr, coz it's my best friend's wedding. haha~ but then come to think of it, I need to get up real early to get to her house... Let's hope that all her sisters can go hyped up, and the brothers are on enough to make the gatecrashing a memorable one for the new weds. =) I got ready for the items I'm assigned to buy.

Koby (my supervisor) went south africa with his wife last week and will be coming back next Tues. Work without him may seems a little more relax bah.. I dun feel that initially, coz I dun really communicate with him.. but then now that he's back soon... I start to feel the "stress".. coz he sits directly behind me.. there's some kinda invisible power that's pressing on my back whenever I think of surfing net. haha~ Anywayz.

I guess today will be resting at home.. since i need to be at Ting's house by 5am.. Gosh. I need to sleep early.. if not i'll look like a panda. haha

Good news good news. My friend got through the first interview for my company and she's coming again for the 2nd. Nice. I really hope that she can get in.. coz i need someone to get high with me. haha~

Dropped my phone twice this week. I've been aiming samsung pixon for a while now.. signs and symptoms for me to change phone? Nah.. I will resist the temptation til the phone price drops. hee~

Bro's bday yesterday. I know he enjoyed himself with baby-chan singing non-stop "happy birthday" to him. hee~

Catching a movie tonight. =)

Yesterday

Yesterday morning I went back to Lee Hwa to get another pair of ear studs for my 2nd earholes.. not diamond one liao.. budget budget.. just got white gold ones. As this pair is less than 100 bucks, dear paid for them. hee~

Then, I went to Funan to buy RAM for my laptop.. dear wanted to get for me as a gift.. but to think that what he bought doesnt fit on my laptop.. hence we went Funan to get another.. (the wrong ones he will have to use for his own lappy) Now my lappy doesnt lag liao~! Nice. After that I went to my hairstylist to layered my hair, bringing dear along. Nice. I feel sooo much lighter now.. no more thick heavy hair liao. hehe~

In the evening, we went to watch benjamin button. a nice show that let me ponder over some things that happened in our lifes... but to tell the truth, I dun really feel the "numbness" or the "gan(3) dong(4) du(4) aka touchness" and it didnt bring tears to my eyes compared to other movies like "The bucket list".

For today, guess it will be resting time at home, catching up with the DVDs. Tata~!

Just bought myself a pair of diamond earrings from Leehwa. Not that cheap lo.. (was thinking for an instance that this amount can buy me a very very good mobile phone.. but anyway, diamond wins. haha) I've got 4 earholes.. and i got a pair.. so the other 2 holes are empty.. so..i decided to go back to the shop again tmr and buy another pair.. not diamonds liao.. coz got budget one mah.. just normal white gold studs can already. hee~ *happy*

Will be going down to have my haircut tmr... it's been 6 months from my last cut.. I still remember I cut it for my graduation.. and now it's been soooo long.. time flies yeah? After the haircut, we be going down to vivo to watch benjamin button. =) I'm sure there will have loads of couples on the streets tmr coz it's v-day.. But for me, tmr is just another day.. nothing much to celebrate.. I think I prefer to emphasize on birthdays.. or probably anniversaries.. a much more unique date compared to Feb 14.

Talking about anniversaries... Jo's wedding date is drawing nearer~! It's just next weekend~! gotta go and prepare what I am assigned to. hee~ Hm.. so excited..

I think no one has noticed that I no longer have links to individual photo albums... now i chose to upload to a photo site, a site that manages all my photos.. It's by shutterfly too. =) Overall it's user friendly and layout's nice too.. so in future, all photos can be accessed at http://onghuishan.shutterfly.com

Nana made these fake nails to go with my dress for Jo's wedding.. hee~nice right? Those interested in having a set of nails designed by my friend here can contact me.. i can arrange for a meet up and discounted price will be given. =)



Today got lo hei for my company lunch.. nice nice. they ordered the 8 course lunch set for $488++.. some pple didnt turn up for the lunch.. hence our table got a lot of leftovers... they didnt bring the company camera.. hence i offered to use my handphone to help them take pictures... although not guaranteed that the pictures are nice lah. I wanted to bring my camera..but then come to think of it, battery is running low and my bag's heavy.. so i forget about it. haha.

Really sleepy now.. i guess i will sleep early today. yawns.. good night.

Late post

I'm seriously lagging behind in watching the dvds that SY lent to me. haha~ Really have no time for them. Sat I went to my bf's friend's shop's opening ceremony. It's a pest control company.. so for pple's whose company need some pest control, or there's bugs in your house, no worries, just leave a comment somewhere and I'll direct you to her. =) "Proserv" is the company's name.

Anyway, back to sat, after the ceremony, i went to 1st aunt's house to do some last min angbao thing.. there's nothing much to entertain me except for the dog.. haha.. even the dog looked bored.. got tired of playing with me lo.. sadz. that night, I went to T3 to pick bro and family up from HK.. and then sent off dear to korea for business trip.. yes, travelling for him again. Take care my dear.. it's 0 degrees over there.

Today, went to meet Jo's friends aka sisters and brothers for her wedding... planned the games already.. (some only - due to time constrain).. after that went walking around alone (to get the gifts for dear and glo) until I smsed RJ to come meet me up earlier.. Its really lonely to walk around alone.. if you dun have a motive. haha~ Aimlessly walking is tiring.. Lucky RJ agreed to come down to meet me earlier.. then glo came around 6.30pm and we went for dinner. =) Farewell dinner for her... she's going overseas on thurs to further her studies. Good for her. UQ is a nice place.. the place where I had my Industrial attachment...

working tmr, and I'm getting sleepy while typing this. so good night guys.

Dry skin, accident prone, bad start of the day.

My skin is so so dry that I can literally feel it cracking. So uncomfortable~! My dry skin is due to excessive alcohol spraying on my arms during lab work. Having a clean environment for my cell cultures are a must.. So I cant avoid... Even my nails are getting fragile and starting to peel.. Loads of moisterisers can only be applied thrice a day.. lunch time and after work.. Of course, before i go to bed. =)

I'm so so accident prone today. Thrice already.. so i assume there's no more accidents gonna happen to me. haha~ First I scratched my hand by hitting the centrifuge (and now leaving a bruise that looks like a bite mark), then I hit my head on the upper fridge door when I stood up from squatting.. and then I banged against the wall.. due to inbalance? Sigh.. I guess all these accidents were linked to a bad start in the morning, when i jumped outta bed and shouted "shit!" - I overslept.. but luckily i managed to come to work, without being late.

snaking around

2 of my friends came to interview at my office today. I really hope that at least one will get the job. Afterall both are my buddies back during work and school. =)

Waiting for my assays to develop before reading the plates..meanwhile.. I dun feel like working leh.. Kept thinking of going home and play PS2. Dear bought 3 games for us.. Dynasty warriors 6, kingdom hearts (chain of memories - i think) and 1 more i cant remember. hee~

Haven got the time to watch the DVDs from my lab partner as well. will try to finish up by this weekend~!

Dont really have the mood to work today. haha~~ Train's not squeezy, a few pple in the lab.. and today's my 3rd month anniversary in PLR! haha... Gotta run expt alone since partner is not here til next week. Scary leh.. have to recall back the things that I had been taught, and trying not to make mistakes (which I did in the end... I broke a corner of a gel.sigh.) I did real slow just in case i miss out anything.. calculations done and re-done to confirm.. Hope that the results in the afternoon turn out ok.

OK. time to go for lunch now.

New year post

Happy lunar new year to all. =)

Saturday ate reunion dinner with sis and family.
Sunday ate reunion dinner with bro and family
Yesterday I brought Mum to watch Love matters at West Mall. Not exactly a nice show.. but at least, mum and I both laughed at the silly jokes from the movie. hee~ After that bro came to west mall, passed me baby-chan and went off to watch movie too.. so for us, we went to KFC and grab a light bite before heading home.

These were the 2 pictures taken at west mall's KFC, after the movie.



That night, RJ smsed me for a meetup.. and it's only upon meeting him then I knew that there's no other's turning up. haha~ so we sat at a pub, drank a beer, chat and update each other about our life and then off we went home. Short meeting only - 1.5 hours only. haha

Today went to paternal 2nd uncle house for house visiting.. only our family and another family turned up.. (out of the 9 kids that my grandma has) See.. they all so bo sim lo.. poor granny was so upset when we asked her what happened. Apparently brothers and sisters had some arguement.. plus no one wants to take care of our granny.. If not for my house being this small.. (the smallest among all the kids that my grandma has) I will want granny to stay at my house... I already lost my grandpa without interacting with him.. I dun want to just lose my grandma.

After that, we went to my maternal 3rd uncle house.. over there, almost everyone turned up (except the 1st uncle and 1st auntie's families).. It's somehow overcrowded.. coz 3rd uncle called his friends to come as well.. haha.. so we stayed for a while, chit chat a bit and left before his friends are here.

This year's ang bao "income" not that great.. haha~ 62 bucks only. Poor thing right? But its ok lah. I'm a grown up.. earned money.. and ang baos are just a kinda "yi(1) si(4)" haha~ heng heng can liao.

Lunch post

I ate instant noodles for today's lunch. Supplement with allswell plum drink. heh. My lab partner was somehow craving for cup noodles.. and plus, since there's not much pple going for lunch today (most of them took half day) so I ate cup noodles too.. ( i dun like to have lunch by my own)

It's CNY in just 2 days time... this year will be another boring day for our family. haha. Next week my partner's going on leave for the whole week.. so I have to work on my own (pray hard that I wont make mistakes. haha) Oh by the way, I'm being confirmed as perm staff in my company. 3 months passed... but it seems so long lo... it's like I've been here forever. haha~ (i know i'm exaggerating and I still have loads to learn and polish up) That means i can officially take leaves, take mcs, claim medical and dental fees.. etc etc. haha

Gim told me that my HR contacted her to come down for an interview.. hope she gets the job. =)

Happy Day

Done my presentation this morning.. and right now i am doing up a report for that. Yah, that's how thing's goes in my company. Anyway, talking about the presentation, I was really nervous this morning.. but luckily I'm able to finish the whole presentation without any hiccups.. I'm so glad that my Supervisor went through with me thoroughly before the presentation to help me understand what I am presenting.. thanks thanks. It's only the Q&A part, I need to ask my supervisor to answer for me. hehe~ and after my presentation, I was actually praised by my supervisor and GM.. "good presentation" is what they said =) hee~ encouragement is good.. although it's just a simple 2 words from the japanese bosses. Who says asians are stingy with compliments? I guess only my previous company are. haha

There's no expts in the lab today as well.. so i have all the time to complete my report - which is to be handed in by the end of today

Talking about end of today, i'm going town after work to get birthday gift for dear's mum. =) Let's see if there's any clothes that can catch my eyes.. if not, I dun think i'll have any new clothes for this coming chinese new year.. which i dun really mind too.. (just get some clothes that I have only worn once to be my new year clothes should be fine.) hehee

Presentation

I dun have any lab work today.. so here i am sitting in the office with those admin staff. My lab partner is on MC today.

Although i dont have any lab to do, I do have a presentation tmr. My supervisor explained to me yesterday til 5.45pm about the presentation contents.. and i only got the slides this morning.. and he said he wants me to get ready (do some minor corrections on the slides) and present to him first at 11am.. which is 10mins later. My first presentation leh.. scary lo.. although i do understand what I'm going to present.. but still presenting to so many pple takes courage.
Ok.. time to go look through the slides one more time.

Gold Class experience

I know i'm a mountain turtle... but i just want to say.. I enjoyed myself at Gold Class cinema~! haha~~ The seats are so so comfy.. with a blanket provided.. food and drinks will be served in glass and plates (if you preordered them). The seats are electronically adjustable to suit your comfort level.. It's just like sitting in first class cabin.. (which I dont have the chance to experience it also.) I want to go there again~! Dear said that he doesnt really liked it.. first, the screen is normal sized..(or to him, it's small) and second, his legs are too long so even if his feet were elevated, it's somehow dangling.. so not exactly comfortable to him.. Or course, I said to give Gold class another chance by going to Vivo's next time. =)

I had a disturb sleep yesterday. I received 8 phone calls every 20 mins from 12.50am to 2.30am. Damn. The number was familiar. It was my ex-company. I thought Gim called me from the office..but I simply just reject and let it miss-called. I had the choice to off my phone.. but i was afraid that my alarm will be affected. Argh~! I think hard that morning wondering whose extension number it was from.. then i recalled. the SENSAPHONE~! Vic must had forgotten or changed without saving when I left the company lo.. there goes my peaceful sleep... Anyway, I smsed vic this morning as well as called back the sensaphone to see if there's anything serious happened to the freezers.. guess that Vic has to face the music liao.. LH will never let this matter pass lo. haha.. *Bless the CRTs.*

Will be catching Red Cliffe 2 at Gold class this sunday. Thanks to Vieth, my birthday present on 2008. =) Yoo hoo~! Will need to do some shopping on Sat. =)

Saw in facebook my former disney colleagues had a new added family member today. congratulations~!

I finally completed my PS2 game.. considering the mandatory side quests are longer than the main story line... haha~ Tough boss fight.. and lucky I am able to defeat with just one go. haha~

Tmr's sunday. One more day before going back to work. New year new start. I need to recover from my illness fast. I dun want to start work with a weak, sickly body.. I want a fresh start. I know 2009 will be a good year for me... I have 7 friends getting married this year... 4 are my current colleagues.. 2 ex-colleagues, and 1 best friend. hee~ weddings are all around me.. and i know pple will start asking, "when's your turn".. my answer will still be the same " see first lah" let nature takes its course. Once all my colleagues got married, I will be the only single status in my unit.. haha.. thats a rare one... I shall maintain status quo ba.. I like to be unique. wahaha

Saw the bangkok news recently.. dunno whether my buddy RJ was there or not.. he cant be so lucky to went clubbing there right? *touchwood* However, I smsed him twice and he still haven get back to me.. i'm not sure whether he finds it expensive to reply from overseas, or he simply left his mobile in SG.. either way, I hope that he sees my message and reply me...

Happy 2009~!

Dear should be on his way back to Penang.. to attend his buddy's wedding. =) Talking about wedding, I have a best friend wedding on 22.02.09... and I need to be her "sisters"~~! Never did I know that my best friend's wedding is fixed earlier than WY's. Hee~~ Need to look through and research on the games and "pranks" to be done to the bridegroom and his brothers.. muahahaa..

Been sick on and off these 2 weeks.. *sigh* fever on and off, blocked nose, sore joints, dry cough and wat make it worse, diarrhoea... 2009 may not be a good year for me.. need to go pray pray and spray some holy water liao.

Brought back the journals from office.. thinking of reading them and making notes... but the weak, sickly me just couldnt bring myself to read those small prints... I know I am searching for excuses.... I'll do it before returning to work on next monday.

Post xmas

I like this christmas season... it has been raining these few days... so its cool and chilling. =) I received 2 presents this year.. one from Ying - an estee lauder perfume and body lotion gift set.. and from dear - SK-II facial treatment essence and a burberrys wallet (he got from London when he went UK the other time) Hee~~ little, but expensive gifts. =) Thanks once again!

It's weekend tmr.. nothing much has been planned yet.. probably going to dear house to watch dvds.. hee~ Probably will start going out to shop.. for new year clothes, as well as clothes to wear for my best friend wedding~! Although she stated pink dress.. i still dont think it suits me. haha~ but for my best friend sake, I'll find the most suitable pink dress for me. haha~

Eve

Xmas eve.. half day today. but will be waiting for dear to come and pick me up at 1pm.. We're going to orchard to meet ying.. to collect my christmas gift~! haha~~ Meanwhile Ying wants to go the the Gucci sales and wants to see if I wanna go with her... hm.... later i tempted to get another one how? heehee~~

Dear has Taka vouchers.. probably will go and see see look look if there's any thing that we can get. haha~

Incubation

Yes~! Haha~~ Will be watching Yes man tonight.

now expt incubation period.. so slack a bit lah.

Came back from the yummy xmas lunch at fosters.. portions are small.. but after the 3 courses, the feeling is just right. The dessert was too sweet. Took some pics liao.. so for those peeps who wants to see my jap bosses... you got a chance now. hehee~

Ok times up soon. update again ya.

Went to Ying's dance performance at Republic poly cultural theatre last Sat. Overall the performance was good. I like to watch Ying dance.. and I feel that she was the prettiest on stage.. regardless of the looks and the moves.. all are beautiful.. (dear didnt know how to appreciate this kind of thing.. so he doze of for a bit on the 2nd half of the performance)

There should have a lot of pple on leave right now.. coz it's near xmas.. and holidays... food court was a bit empty and lesser pple... too bad for us, we have to work this week.. but luckily, we have a half day on the eves. =)

Reading journals from just now... blogging allows me to take my attention off a bit, so that i wont strain my eyes reading those small small words.. (i know i can enlarge.. but I didnt. 100% is sufficient)

There's Xmas lunch tmr at Fosters. Looking forward to it. =)

It's Friday

Had a terrible flu yesterday.. but still i have to stay out late, to attend a funeral.. Passed Ting her Xmas gift.. but forgot to pass to Clar.. hm.. gotta meet her another day to do so..

Feeling better today, after a dose of "became" haha~ This medicine always work for me.. though it causes drowsiness... if i got them with me at office, I wont be feeling that terrible yesterday.. (fluid dripping from nose uncontrollably.. eeww~~)

Dear's coming home tonight. =) The weekend's activities are planned. Next week will be Xmas~! Enjoy, everyone!

My Tues

It's been 2 weeks that dear had diligently drove me to and fro work.. in return, he got to eat mum's homecook food everyday. Yesterday he flew off to Taipei.. and so i woke up early today to take train.. never did I expect dad offered to drove me here, since he woked up early too. =)
There's little pple in the office today.. all the japanese had gone to shangri-la hotel for board meeting.. however, we still have work to do.. so no slacking.. haha~

Will be meeting Gim and RJ tonight for dinner... so as to pass him the gift i got from taka last week.

This Thurs will be meeting Jo, for dinner as well as attending Clar's Granny funeral. My condolences to her and family.

This Friday dear will be back home, late.. so we will be meeting on Sat to attend Ying's dance performance at Republic poly! Hee~ This is the 3rd time that I attended Ying's performance.. Loyal supporter!

Sunday may be bringing my niece and all to Terminal 3.. to see bro and the Fabulous 4 from Disney (Mickey, Minnie, Goofy and Donald).. if it's not raining.... We have special family pass usually. haha~!

K.. time for work again.

update

Work's been fine so far.. have been learning a lot from my own unit and other unit.. to the extend that I sometimes forget and mixed up the different methods used for the same kind of work. haa~ it should be better if they have a standard set of method.. just like an SOP? wahaha.

I've been given a project by my supervisor.. which indirectly causes a slight stress on me.. afterall it's been only 1 month plus in my new job.. haven really got the hang of everything.. anyway, it's a good sign that he gave me this responsibility.. =)

Xmas is coming.. been sms-ing my friends for a meet up but either they cant make it or that they didnt get back to me.. so sad..

Anyway, I'm catching a movie later on in the evening and then off we go to meet nana they all at St james. hee~ tata~

Photoblog

I'm doing up a new photoblog. Looks nice to me.. will be in operation next year with combination of this blog. woohoo~!

Emotional day..

Today heard from my colleague that my supervisor has plans to transfer me to their unit.. Coz there's not much work in our unit currently.. so 1 person (which is my partner) should be sufficient.. I'm not resistent about being transferred.. just felt, a bit sad if that's really the case.. afterall I havent finished learning what I'm supposed to do at my current unit.. Somehow I felt being pushed around (although it didnt really happen.. yet) like a spare tyre.

Anyway, besides this, I'm so so upset about my oily hair that i noticed recently.. My hair is somehow immediately oily after wash.. guess it should be the shampoo that i am using currently.. i didnt change brand.. just that the shampoo changed packaging and I wonder if that changes the ingredient inside.. will be doing an "expt" of shampoo on my hair this weekend to see if I can improve on my hair condition.

i accidentally locked dear's pc just now.. saying sorry to him also no use. he got so so angry.. and replied "dun bother me now". I was so sad.. and upset.. afterall, he was the one who asked me to guess the password (and not telling me straight). I felt so wronged. I only want to show him something on the internet, plus testing out his laptop.. things just gone wrong i guess.. I shouldnt be touching his working laptop, and he shouldnt asked me to guess the password (since the account will be locked after several attempts - which apparently i dun know about it). Ok, i wont be touching his laptop from now on... to prevent things from happening again.. i dun like this feeling.. the feeling of heart being squeezed tight.. just like what i am feeling right now when i typed this blog.. he forgave me in the end... but still, I dont feel better.

Right now i just want to put my feelings on hold... need sometime to get better.. goodnight.

Fusion

Today will be a busy day.. I'm lending a hand to another unit coz there's nothing much for me to do too ( i wonder if my supervisor doesnt feel safe letting me work alone, since my lab partner is not around til next week) anyway, there's stuff to do this afternoon. Fusion.

Heard good news from my close friends.. I'm looking for the day that I can see them and meet them up for lunch whenever wanted. haha~!

I saw the video of the white tiger biting the poor cleaner to death yesterday. It's sad to see that.. I'm still thinking about it now.. Sigh.. why did he choose such an innovative yet painful way to kill himself?

Ok.. stop here for now. Going to meet up SC and RJ for lunch today.

Lab partner not around

Yesterday met up with WX, Ruth, Zul and Eric for dinner at IMM. Too bad Gim, Wy, Haz and RJ cant make it.. We'll have another one separately then. =) It's really nice to meet up once in a while.. so that we can chit chat and gossips. hee~~ Took some random pics and posted in FB liao.. Tonight i have another session with the other girls.. Seafood dinner~! Gosh, my wallet will have a hole soon.. plus my cholesterol will be building up..

Just been informed that we have a company holiday on 2nd of Jan... Those admin staff sure have holiday to spend... but for us, those expts cannot be neglected.. hence we may still need to come back and work. who knows.. maybe my good supervisor decide to sacrify himself to come back for us? hee~

My lab partner went for a holiday.. so i have to work with my supervisor. It's not that i dun like to work with him.. just that I feel a bit stress (sometimes) when he is watching me. ha~ I need to get use to it.

Over the weekends

Dear came home last sat.. I thought I was lost on the expressway (which actually I'm not) due to the misleading road signs.. It's not the first time I went airport to fetch dear.. just that I dunno what came to me.. hence I exited Bedok, parked at a petrol station and started flipping my directory... As a taxi actually parked beside me, I might as well ask the uncle on how to go.. which, he did directed me, in a friendly way (although i blocked his taxi a bit but he's not angry). I managed to reach the airport eventually. =)

Anyway, dear came home with unexpected "souveniors" Sigh.. dun wanna talk about it here.. it's embarrassing. wahaha. But i like the newcastle t-shirt he bought for me.. bling bling kind.. I'll upload a pic when i have the time. Plus, he got for me SK-II facial treatment essence from the DFS too.. that's my xmas gift.

So glad that dear's back with me. haha~ this weekend I want to go shopping with him~! but first, there's a ex-lilly gathering tonight at IMM~! enjoy~!

Dear's coming home~

My experimental results showed inconsistency, despite the training i had been thru. Sigh.. so disappointed at myself. I guess i gotta redo the whole experiment next week. (usually the expt will need a whole week to get results.) Sigh... gotta buck up and do better. =)

A friend of mine talked to me on MSN a few days ago.. she's officially hitched and will be inviting me and dear to her wedding dinner next year. =) When asked "when's my turn?" I'll probably reply "thinking of that soon". Haha~~ Getting old now.. better get married before my thoughts go astray. wahaha~

It's friday~! Dear's coming home tmr. Also heard good news about my other ex-colleagues may be joining the pool in biopolis.. cant wait to feel excited for them!

Work is fun~!

Forgot to mentioned that my company bbq this weekend was cancelled due to poor response. Initially I was hesitating of whether to turn up after picking up dear from the airport, or just give it a miss (anti-social a bit).. I actually wanted to go but then I chose dear over work. haha~~ but now, I'm sorta glad that I heard the news that it was cancelled and postpone til further notice. hee~

Was asked to go for a steamboat session at Vieth's house tmr. great. Another gathering. I like it. haha~ So that I wont distant from my ex colleagues cum friends... then nana sent another email to me asking to go for another steamboat on a friday and clubbing on a sat.. seems like we're having fun eh. haha~

I wonder when dear will be going off to Taiwan for business again on Dec.. if the day falls on the day i have dinner or the clubbing day (which i told nana that i will go unless there's unforeseen circumstances).. then i have to give up the gathering session... hee~ Sorry ah~~ like "zhong se qing you" but then you guys have to think leh.. after kk changed job, he will be travelling frequently.. so have to accompany him to airport.. =)

Just hope that India's situation will be better.. coz I heard that dear needs to go there for business early next year too.

This morning when bro came back from work, he took a internet cable for me to link up my Vaio to the router. Finally i can conclude, I can be online for as long as I want to, without getting feared that the connection will break off. Apparently there's something wrong with my Vaios network card. Cannot sense my own router, but able to see the others (neighbours). Anyway, thanks bro.
