Random red

I thought of wearing red today, bring me alittle luck.

Hmmm... As if I'm wearing a "boyfriend" t-shirt. =)

Crutch it!

Finally! After a long wait I have got myself a crutch-handbag. Got this at Eightytwo Tales in Haji Lane.

Details:
Use it as a hand bag.

The colours contrast and the golden studs creates a professional look.

I love bags with many compartments, it's good to be organised and neat.

This chain can be shorten and transform from a handbag into crutch bag.

Totally love it!

Juggling with Responsibilities

I have to admit that my Chinese New Year didn't start off too well for me; be it at work, relationship, financially. I'm facing with alot of decision I need to make and take responsibility of my own life.

Picture taken from Google.com or you can find it on clipartof.com

Although I am content with what I am doing and what I am earning, reality struck me HARD. It's time to make some changes and adjustment again. =)

Since I am still young, I shall stand up and fight for my dream. Someone once said this to me:"You will learn how to embrace failure as you will learn to become stronger. You will think more wisely as you progress along the way. But remember this, NEVER SAY QUIT."

Dilemma for CNY.

I was spoiled by many ideas and choices of what to wear for CNY. But I've decided to wear this lovely maxi dress from Ministry of Retail on Day 1. Not only it is gorgeous, I love how this dress can pull off with different ways of wearing.

Blog this out last year Dec. =)

With a final touch, I have decided to bun up my hair since the weather is sunny.

On CNY Day 2, I will dress down and since both of my parent are the eldest in the family. Everyone would visit us and have lunch. =)

This double layer skirt is from Ministry of Retail too! If I have a white ruffled top, I can pair with it too. =)

Yes, if you have noticed I have been frequent with Ministry of Retail. They not only provide for working adults, as well as casual clothing too. All of their designs & products are imported from Korea.

The material and colour turns out to be exactly the same online, thus I'm not worried that I couldn't get what I want. I will continue to look out for their FB updates. =)

Oh! Did you know Ministry of retail have their own Fashion Blog?

Let yourself loose in Krabi (part 2)

Day 2:

The sun greeted us and we are all ready to get soaking wet. I was surprise that there is HOT Spring in Thailand. Yes, that was our first stop.

For once, I have sensitive skin. Immediately after the swim in Emerald pool, I had rashes forming on my back.

Final stop is the most unforgettable Tiger Cave Temple. We had to climb 1286 steps up the mountain. But it was worth every effort, the scenery was spectacular!
The best thing was it rain! We had to stay hidden up in the mountain for 15 mins before climbing down again.

Day 3:

It's snorkeling all day long! I was very excited to swim with the fishes and jumping into clear sea waters.

Remember to have a hearty breakfast! =)

Day 4:

It's the last day for our activities. However, this is the most enjoyable activity I came across; white water rafting! We regretted not choosing the 9km, instead we only started out with 5km. It was an awesome ride!

Next, we had jungle trail with the elephants. I was holding onto my dear life as I'm afraid of heights and I was half paranoid that the elephant would be clumsy and fell down the hill.

I get to feed the elephants~ =)

After that, our tour guide brought us to view Water fall and Monkey Cave Temple.

Day 5:

Goodness, I don't want this to end. Having great full body massage and foot massage everyday....

Surrounded by wonderful view of Mother Nature and delicious Thai food....

OH! I had to bid Ao Nang, Krabi; Thailand farewell.

Till next time. =)

2011-01-29T21:05:00.000-08:00

Let yourself loose at KRABI!

Yes, that's what I did. I had lots of fun fun FUN!!! =) Seriously, I love to be close to nature and enjoy the view, smell of the fresh air and it's so amazing that you could feel the vibes of Mother Nature.

I'm just going to do a summary of this amazing trip, it is my first time to Ao Nang, Krabi; Thailand. By the way, whoever said there isn't any shopping, they are SO WRONG! There were tones of shopping to do.

Trust me, Krabi is one Heaven you won't want to miss.

Day 1:

Head off to budget terminal, flight at 2.10pm.

In the plane....

After 1 hour, arrived at Krabi International Airport.

Checking in to our Hotel.

OH! Don't you just love the view?

YEAH! The smell of freedom from work. =P
My beloved sister and me. <3>

If you're wondering, my pants is from Eightytwotales in Haji Lane.

Yup, that marks end of day 1. I'll upload more later. =)

2011-01-22T21:51:00.000-08:00

Because I'm leaving on a jet plane..

Firstly, I am never a last minute packer but I couldn't think of what I should bring over. I've been flipping my wardrobe inside out and thinking of nice/comfy beach wear.

My boyfriend even said this to me:" Why not just bring your whole wardrobe over?" laughing at me. "You know what, if I were you I would pack less and buy clothes from there to wear. Ideal right? Since you will be there for 5 days, you will have enough time to shop around!"

So I did what he said, I've re-pack everything and this is what I've come out with.

1) Maxi dress
2) Sun dress
3) Shorts (It a must have!)
4) Spaghetti top/tank top (Let's face it, it's going to be HOT HOT HOT!!!)
5) Long length T-shirt
6) Track pants for the night
7) Scarf/belt
8) Sunglasses
9) Hair/Body/Face products

Even though it's hot weather now, but I'm still a big chicken when it comes to cold. I'll be holding onto my sweater on the plane. =)

Whereas shopping, I'll see what my chances are.

Review: Curling my hair using non-heat method

OK, I have personally tried this method for the 4th time and it still amaze me over and over again. I love using non-heat method because it won't damage my hair while curling them, and I don't need to worry about whether I'm using the right temperature to get the curl I want.

I have illustrate how I use non-heat method:

You will need to wash your hair and wait till it is semi-dry.

Spray on your hair essence or in my case, I love to spray on Liese Juicy Hair Spray.

It not only helps me to moisture my hair, but it also protects my hair.

Next, I will apply Liese Designing Jelly (Swing Wave aka holding strength number 2). I want to create a nature soft wave look, thus I don't need to get too strong holding strength.

In my case, I use 2-3 pump of the jelly because my hair is really long.

Do take note, I always start applying from mid to end of my hair.

Next, get really your strawberry curling sponges. (*Aren't they cute?) I got these at SaSa (*sorry, I've forgotten the price) and it has 6 of these cuties in one packet. I've used 8 of these cute little sponges.

I like to separate my hair into 3 parts (bottom/middle/top); starting from the bottom hair and work your way up.

OK, let's start with the right side of my hair. First, comb hair. Next, using the sponge to align with hair and pull it downwards near your hair end (*please make sure your hair is straight) and start rolling up. Give them a little squeeze to keep them in place.

Note: I like to twirl in my hair ends as well.

Do this for all your hair. I know, I look ridiculous but I can't wait for the outcome. I will leave it on overnight. How can you sleep? When you lay your head on the pillow, make sure you don't lay on the strawberry sponges. Try to place them away from your head.

When morning comes, I was thrilled! Slowly removing my strawberry sponges, and here comes the curls! =)

Because I want the curls to last throughout the day, I will use Lucido-L Designing Aqua spray. I know the label states "For use before curling", but it works perfectly fine for me.

With a final comb through using my fingers, I am really to go! =)

To me, I'm happy with my curls as it looks really natural, soft and fluffy. Most importantly, my hair doesn't feel sticky or stiff. Go ahead and try it out for yourself. =)

New Hairstyle for A New Year

Photos taken from Google.com

I have been thinking of cutting my hair short to slightly below my shoulder. Perhaps even colouring my hair to brown? I will be doing this after CNY period due to some old folk tales.Why do I want to cut away my long hair? Because I want to prepare for the hot weather which is coming soon, and I miss my black hair.

OK, side track little:

Needless for me to remind you that our hair are very delicate. Did you know that our hair are at it weakest when it is wet? Therefore, we should never rub our hair with a towel, simply dry our hair by pressing it dry. Try avoiding using too much hair-dryer, it causes more brittleness and it is damaging to our hair. So, I love to give my hair lots of TLC by showering them with hair conditioner/essence hair spray/hair mask. I will always make sure when I sleep I don't crush on them; I lift up my hair end when I lay my head down the pillow.

Also, by trimming your hair once every 3 months will help preventing split ends and getting rid of damage/knots in your hair. So do visit your hair-stylist every 3 months! =)

Home-made mask @ the price of 30 cents

OK, this time I've remember to take some photos. Enjoy!

1) Clean off all your makeup and wash your face.

2) Get ready your good friend: The Egg.

3) Separate the egg white and the egg yolk.

4) Now, we will start with the egg white. Beat it until you see bubbles, this means the egg white is ready.

5) Apply over your face, but not the area around your eyes. Wait for about 1 min for it to dry.

When you can't smile, it means it's time to wash your face.

6) Now, my face feels refresh and tight.

7) Now, break the egg yoke. It is a good moisturiser!

8) Apply on your face but not the area around your eyes.

9) Wait for it to dry (about 1 min), and you can wash your face once more.

After washing off the egg yolk, your face will feel smooth and clean. I like to use my toner and anti-ageing cream to apply my face before I sleep.

Best to do this once a week but I like to do my egg mask alternatively with my face mask from The Face Shop. Try it! =)

I've learn about this egg mask by viewing Michelle Phan tutorial on Youtube.

When in Pompeii - Life in a Rome Town

I love to go museum as you don't know what mystery you're be exposed to. Not just art or creativity but it tells you stories; perhaps about a man or a woman, or a story about how a country was so flourish and rich yet became a hidden treasure.

There were about 10 of these figures lying on the floor. I only share 2 of the most memorable ones.

One of the rich man walls....

This is the status of Venus. Lovely, isn't she?

Notice the handle top is a thumb?

This was an oven!

This was a stove!

This is a candle stand.

These are door keys and jewellery box keys. It looks more like a ring to me.

So, what's next to be explore?

Kind of Blue...

There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it.(By Edith Wharton)

A jump of possiblities...

Jump suit from Ministry of Retails

These are the tiny details from the Jumper: Layering band, chiffon like belt and buttons at the end.

This is how it look like when I first put it on, and unfortunately I have big hips.

This style looks normal but if I pair it up with a sneakers and tie up my hair to one side, I'll look hip-hop.

I wanted to look formal thus thought of giving this black blazer a try, but it's a disappointment.

Then, Bohemian came into my thought which I uses the belt as a scraf and use my own belt and braclet to accessories. :)

This is the final style I could come up with:

Simply by adding a touch of bright colours and I try to focus the attention towards my scraf. :)

Canon Fever!

Photo taken from Google.com

OK, I seriously can't stop looking at it. I am falling head over heels for Canon G12 ever since it was launch. I still remember vividly that my Poly school mates and I were joking about "if there was Canon G11, then there would be Canon G12 launch with all the special effects functions." Which it did! I went to check out all the functions and even compare it with other DSLR/Compact cameras I had in mind.

I am convinced that if you are not going to invest in lens, or you are not willing to spend much on this hobby. Most likely, Canon G12 is just the best camera for you. It has the new Hybrid Image stabilizer which allows you to capture macro more sharper, and a manual mode that allows adjustments on settings such as exposure and shutter speed to achieve your desired picture.

It also comes with 25 shooting moods (with miniature effect/fish eye effect/foliage effect), and the best part is you can bring it under water! By the way, the lens can be shift; which mean that you can make use of a filter to enhance your picture quality. Sorry if I am out-dated about Canon new functions; the Face self-timer (it will detect the total number of faces in the group and take the photo) & the Smile self-timer (when you smile, the shutter goes off automatically). COOL HUH!

"How much is the market price?" I asked the sale man.

"S$780 is the price I can offer." with that, he smiled at me.

OK, I know I shouldn't even think about less than S$500 but S$780 is a killer price. What can I say, I'm going to buy a Powershot Compact Camera with a picture quality of a DSLR.

It's all in the past! Hello 2011!

Ok, just one last brusher on my cheeks and I'm ready to go. As I took another glance at my reflection, a knock was on my door. It was Ferdy and we were heading to Vivo City to meet his friends for the countdown cum birthday celebration for Shawn. (*He's born on 1-1-1988.)

Happy birthday Shawn!

Chill out at Starbucks, we didn't want to squeeze with the crowds yet.

Once again, Happy new year and may a new beginning brings you lots of joy and happiess!

Next post, my new year resolutions. =)

Mango loves & Haji Lane treasures

Ok, I've promised myself not to buy anymore clothes as I've got 5 lovely clothes from MOR. I was meeting Daniel as I wanted to go Haji Lane that I hear so much about, and I really want to see it for myself.

I couldn't stop going into all those shop-houses. Their layout are fantastic and all the clothes and accessories are goregous!

Look at what I've got from Haji Lane:

Yes. It's a pant but I love the details that I can wear it like a dress.

Golden chains with pearls are one of my favourites. I love how it complements each other. It was hand made by the shop owner, and the best thing is it only cost $10!

After buying all these, guilt just slip into me. I remember I just brought 2 clothing from Mango. I really want to hit myself. But, it was on Year End Sale and it was up to 70%!

I love how this shorts looks like a skirt and it's all button up.

I always give this knitted sweater a nickname: "ah ma" jacket. =P

Total damage cost: $90

Yes, it's in my blood. I'm a shopaholic!

2010-12-29T03:19:00.000-08:00

New found love with Ministry of Retail

They brought in their products from Korea. Not only their designs are unique but it's so easy for me match with my day to day clothes. There are weekly specials, where 3 selected items will be going at 10% off the usual price!!! They even have featured designs to showcase their special featured cuttings, thus it's not a daunting task to choose from all the designs that they have. How cool is that?

I've got few pieces from them and I fall in love with them instantly.

This hair band is lovely!

I can't help but to fall in love with this white flower!

Not only you can wear it on your head, but it can be as a deco on your blazer.

This jacket design is the black outline. It's classic and yet I can make it look formal/casual.

Next, the white jacket with golden button. It's not just the golden buttons, but the sleeve is outstanding too.

It's a creative idea that this mint maxi dress can be wore in 3 different ways.

This brown skirt is one of my favourite purchases. It's the material that matter to me the most.

Last but not least, the chiffon dress. It feels so light and soft!

Do check them out @ www.ministryofretail.com, I promise you, you can't stop shopping with them!

2010-12-28T19:10:00.000-08:00

Hi everyone! I'm going to blog about my new buys over these few days.

Keep a look out! =)

2010-12-26T22:51:00.000-08:00

Procrastinating....

Oh, come on. COME ON! Breath in and out.... Deep breathes...

No matter how I force my fingers to press on the keyboard, no ideas came to me. My mind was in a blank and the mood just doesn't set in. I was walking in circles/looking at other blog shops/style online, hoping some ideas would pop in. The outcome: NOTHING.

OH no! What's wrong with me? I am really going to crack my head open, bang myself onto the wall if that's what it gonna take for the idea to come to me. Maybe I should turn my head upside down for awhile....

AH HA! I know just what to do....
I went into my room and open up my wardrobe, and the next thing I knew, I was wearing all my feminine outfits I could find and start to mix and match. Just as I know it would work, ideas came to me like a flow of river.

OK, time to pen down some ideas! =)

Before I forget, happy boxing day!

2010-12-21T05:40:00.000-08:00

Alright, I have talk about taking care of your face.... Some of you asked for make-up tips for natural look. I am more than happy to share but please pardon my inexperiences. (*Come on, I'm just stating the fact that there are others who are more expert in make-up tips. I look at their tuitorial all the time.)

1) Clean you face and apply all your beauty products (Tonner/Moisturiser/anti-ageing cream). Don't forget about your sunblock! Our sun ray is really strong in Singapore.

2) First, I will put my eye-concealer from Ettusais around my eye-bags. Using only my ring finger, gently tap around my eyes.

3) Next, I will use my loss powder as my foundation from Ettusais. I always love to apply more on my jaw line as it will help define my facial structure even more.

4) Now we have reach the eye-browns. I'll use brown colour instead of black as it's more natural and outstanding. Just stroke over your eye-browns, do it in a stroke outwards direction.

5) Now, I will use an eyeliner gel/pencil from Maybelline/Benefit to outline my upper eyelid only. This will give a more natural look.

6) Mascara is then apply to my lashes, and I love using Benefit mascara. It naturally helps to curl my lashes. If not, just use an eye-lash curler before applying your mascara.

7)Next is your cheeks. Do remember to smile so you can see your cheek bone and brush along that area.

8) Finally, the lips. I love applying lip balm and then the lip gloss. (*Choose nude pink.)

And you are good to go. =)

Do have a look at Michelle Phan's tuitorial. It's really detail and she's very experience in makeup.

2010-12-20T06:17:00.000-08:00

OK, let's be cool about it. It is just an egg.

AN EGG!

As I slowly crack open the shell, carefully, I separate the yolk from the egg white. Wondering why am I doing this? I am going to do my egg mask after I've watch Michelle Phan's tutorial on youtube.

The outcome: Wow! My face has never feel so fresh.
You should really try it out for yourself and believe me, you won't regret it. Not only my face feels refreshing, it is softer and smoother. However, don't forget to beat the egg white before applying onto your face. After you are done with the part when you have to apply egg white and yolk on your face, you got to use ice to close up your pores. Finally, apply your own anti-ageing cream as eggs don't contain anti-ageing properties. Michelle Phan videos are great, I also watch how she does her make-up and hair styling. They are all very interesting and environment friendly. =)

Sorry, I didn't take any pictures of myself when I did my egg mask. But, it was funny. My boyfriend even gives me the weird look.

OK, girls. Go and do your facial egg mask right now!!!

2010-12-19T05:43:00.001-08:00

OK, so I've been told that I should really add in pictures just to make my blog more interesting and some of you might want to know how I really look like, so here it is:

Yes, I look normal and nothing special. I just love to go for all natural demure look. It's so much more pleasant to the eye and not complicated. I really hate to put lots of foundation on my face as my pores are stubborn and easy to clog up.

How do I take care of my skin you might ask? Firstly, I want to explain I am no make-up guru. I am just a simple girl who thinks simple. I love to eat tomato (cherry tomato) raw, fruits (such as strawberries, blueberries, watermelon, banana, apple), nuts and roasted almonds as all these aids in detoxification. Not forgetting to mention that I'll drink plenty of water just to keep my water intake balance. Since I was in Poly, I started to realise that junk food cause me to have alot of oil-spots, as well as pimples on my face. Thus, I say goodbye to fast food for as long as I possibly could. (* I will only eat fast food under difficult circumstances)

Personally, I washes my face twice a day; when I wake up and when I just came home from work. It is a must for me to use a facial foam/facial scrub as I have oily T-zone and stubborn blackheads. (*I only scrub once a week, but I have to scrub daily only for blackheads area. Seek a skin care consultant on this, as I was advise to do this for my own skin type.) As for skin care products, I am currently using Clarins. Not only it is good for Asian weather condition, their products aids my skin perfectly well.

Yes, I will agree that it isn't easy to find the right kind of product for your skin type. I have spend almost 3 years and wasted countless of money just to look for the product that is suitable for my face... OMG!

So, Toner/Moisturiser/sunblock are a definitely "exlire" ingredients for my face. I am still considering for anti-wrinkle/dark spot cream from Olay. Guess that lately, I have been frowning alot in the office.

Last but not least, weekly facial mask. My skin loves to be pamper and I will T.L.C my face with mask from either The Face Shop or My Beautiful Dairies. I always choose Fresh Fruit Alovera, and Walnut & Pinenut. I am going to try out others and keep you updated.

The reasons why I love these 2 is because they helps in nourishing and keeps my skin looking radiant and healthy. (*small tip, try putting your mask into the fridge. When you want to apply it, it will be nice and cool on a hot weather!)

I may sound mad but I've this little urge to try using D.I.Y egg mask for my next facial treat. It's really simple after looking at Michelle Phan's egg mask tutorial. Try it! =)

2010-12-16T06:23:00.000-08:00

"Come and grab!!! It's on sales! $35 each!" I shouted, excitedly to the crowds.

I'm at the Crocs Sale @ Singapore Expo, and it will be held over the weekends. Hurray for all of us! =) I even sms to all my friends about it. (*what was I thinking?)

It's quite interesting to watch how those people do their shopping in times like these, you will be able to see people snatch from each other, the cartons got step upon and it almost got destroy. I was thinking to myself: Do I look just like them when Mango/Fox/ Zara was on sales? Definitely maybe.

"Are these orignal? Are they real Crocs? Where are they made from?" suddenly a ladys' voice breaks my thought.

"Yes Mdm, they are REAL original Corcs." I said, smiling and trying my best to keep my sarcastic tone.

"OH!" said the lady, almost blushing.

Goodness me, is she blind or is the Crocs print too small to be seen on the sign board?

2010-12-13T07:48:00.000-08:00

Darling, let me help you with the food today....

There came his sms and it warm my heart, knowing that he will be a great helper. As puncturn he always is, I told him to read the article I'm going to write for a fashion blog. Ok, my English gramma suck big time but I could still try to express my point of view.

"Ok, I'll help you with that later."

2 hours later, I wanted to go out for a walk because the office issue was still bothering my mood. By night fall, we reached home.

"Dear, why not you go ahead and wash up first while I complete my aritcle? Then you will be able to read it by the time you're done showering." I said.

You know what's the best way to fall asleep? Going for a long walk around the city, having a nice warm bath and a cool bedroom ready for you to shut your eyes for the next 8 hours. That is what he did.

No only he forgot about reading my article that day, he totally left me with all the food preparation.

I'm pissed.

"Darling, I'm sorry but I'm really tired. Can I go sleep now?" he asked, softly.

"Ya." with that I slam the door.

I don't know if it's because my body composition of water is 80%, I felt tears starting to flood my eyes. It should be anger and disappointment but why am I crying? By the time it was past 12 midnight, I open my bedroom door and there he was, sleeping like a pig.

If I could, I really wish I could just kick him out of my bed.... ><"

2010-12-10T20:42:00.001-08:00

As I hurried down the stairs, I couldn't feel much more excitement. I push open the door gently, and I was caught off guard what was about to be thrown at me....

------------------------------------------~//~-------------------------------------------------

It's how surprising that life can throw anything at you and we are either force to learn and acknowledge it or simply ignore the warnings and be prepare to be thrown with a bigger problem later.

I was very affected these few days due to rumours about me was spreading fast like bullet train. It caught to my ears as one of my seniors pre-warn me about it. She didn't mention who said what and when. But I am officially in their lime-light. I know what she was talking about and I had my part to be blame. When it comes to emotions/feelings, it's not something I could easily hide. I believe most women had gone through these before or are still going through this. However or whatever it is, I've learn that humans are judgemental creatures who careless about others. Nonetheless, there are angels around us and I Thank God for them. <3

As harsh as it may seem, I am in a situation that is simple to solve. But it's because our human brains are complex thus simple problem becomes complicated. A part of me wants to hold on but another part of me says it's morally wrong to do so.

"No, I don't want to let go. Why can't I chase after my happiness? Why must I be selfish to my self and be miserable?"

"No, you mustn't do this! That guy is just toying with you and you'll get hurt in the end? It's short lived happiness!"

The best part in life is, we are always given choices. You choose a choice, you make a mistake and you learn from them. But sometimes even making a single mistake isn't enough, because as stubborn as some of us may be, we need to learn from MANY mistakes we make in life. Be it different of similar, they are all call: Mistakes. The most important value is what we experience from this mistake, what did we learn?

So, I always make sure I look at the bright side of my problems. Even if I am in the emotion: upset/anger, I will admit I am feeling this emotion but I must get out of it ASAP. I want to choose to be happy and life goes on.
Also bear this in mind: Never to explain yourself, because the person who loves you won't need it and the person who hates you won't believe it. It is selfish to be miserable.

=) You'll be a much happier person.

Hurray! The long weekend has finally arrivided!

Looking at my organiser, it's all blank except on Saturday. Which is great, I can rest at home all day long and do the things I want to do. (I need to do a little calculation since I'm planning to take up manuel driving lessons and a trip to ..... and getting my Iphone 4 or hopefully Iphone 5 should I decide to wait alittle longer.)

On Friday:

I look at my watch and it's only 9am, suddenly there's a ring tone from my handphone. The phone screen flashes Cheryl's name. Then I remembered......

Shit! I'm suppose to have breakfast with her this morning.

Quickly, I jump out of the bed and wash up as fast as possible. I took the Cleo magazine Nov issue for her to read and rush down to the coffee shop. Thank God we both bumped into each other. (*FYI, I hate to let people wait for me. I'm a time-keeper!)
Over breakfast, we share alot things that have happen over these few weeks. Cheryl was busy preparing for her exams while I was busy preparing for my test and working my ass off OT. I was so happy that Cheryl asked my to block out a weekend for her, so we could go out. =)

After breakfast, I was so happy to stay home all day and I even when to rent DVD (*The A-Team) just to keep me company should I start to feel bore.

*Beep.

J: What are you doing today? Free to help me wash my swimming pool?

Never did I realised washing a swimming pool was that difficult and tiring. After a long and tiring 2 hours with the pool, I got hungry and cooked a bowl of korean noodles. I guess I was really tired that I was careless enough to hit my little toe nail that it cracked and bleeded.

"Ouch!!! Sweet baby Je**s.... My nail! It's bleeding." I cried in pain. Quickly, I used a tissue and press against the wound. Hoping the bleeding would have stop, I put on the plaster. As I walked, the pain persisted and I looked down at my plaster, it has already turn red.

Shit.

I head into Takashimaya's toilet to change the plaster, luckily, my nail didn't came off. Thank God! Trying to stay cool, I went on with my brother-in-law in search of his flash light for his camera.

My eyes was wide open. Looking at all the small stores that are selling electronics products and even clothings, I couldn't beleve I was at Lucky Plaza. We got what we came for, but couldn't get a lower price since the sales man claim he has given us a very good price for a professional flash light. But, I caught my eye on Nikon D3100 and the salesman is giving me a price at $888 for the whole package. (*I will source out other deals before I come down to this conclusion of buying.) I know it's very old and a basic camera, and for those of you who know my dad is a professional photographer, I do not wish to use his camera and at the end of the day "destroy his toys". I can be quite clummsy at times.

As we were heading back to Takashimaya, my sister was still shopping with her friends. Thus we head to Kinokuniya to get some books to read while waiting for her, and since we were waiting for her I decided to go for a hair cut at Reds. Haven't seen my hair-stylist for 9 months and I know she's gonna scold me for neglecting my hair.

I took off my earrings as it will be easier for her to comb through my hair and my earrings won't get lost. Happily, I left my earrings on the table... After my hair-cut, we hurried over to met my sister who was having her dinner.

Upon reaching home, I was getting ready for my bath and I just realised I wasn't wearing my earrings. This is just great!

"Hello? J, do you have Celia number? I think I might have left my earrings at the saloon." I tried to sound as causal. After explainning to Celia about my mistake and carelessness, she promised she would keep a look out for me. Now, all I have to go is to pray hard I can get it back tomorrow.

"Ah girl... I just lost the earring you brought for her. BUt I remember I took them off at home and left them on the table.." said mom, with a sad face.
This is just great.

On Saturday:

YES! Thank God! I got my earrings back! Maybe my mother would find hers back too! Feeling cheerful, Ferdy and I head off to the movies. ( We watched "A Wonderful Afterlife" production by an India film company -> I guess. It was hilarious!)

When I reach home, I saw my mother still searching high and low. Then, she stop and rest on the wooden sofa.

"Oh! I've searched everywhere but nothing." my mom said with a sigh.
"It's ok, I can always buy you an other one." I said, trying to comfort her.

On Sunday:

"Ok, I know it might sound crazy, maybe Mo Mo took it and hide it in her cage?" I exclaim.

Then next thing I know, my mother was laughing nonstop.

"Never mind, I'll check while I change her cage." and with that I took Mo Mo out of her cage and stay checking and throwing the old beddings away.

Nothing.

"I'm sorry mom." I said, apologetic.

"It's ok. I'm looking forward for you to buy me new ones. Come, it's time to clean your cupboard, look! You've got tonnes of clothes to clear. Choose those that you want to throw and those you want to donate." with that, she smile at me widely.

In the evening, I was jumping up and down again.

Why?

Because I found the necklace that I thought I lost it during my trip to Cambodia 4 years ago. It's been under my nose all these years. It's a bitter-sweet feeling for me. Alot of memorise came back but I'm not going into it.

The best part of today is:
"Mom, who's earring is this? It's left on the dinning table." asked my sister, holding a golden rose earring.
"AH!!! You found it! It's been there all the time? Good lord, my eyes are playing with me. hahaha.." said my mom, trying to laugh it off.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I don't know what is really happening but this long weekend show me 2 lessons.

(1) When you don't cherish the things around you, and once it is lost, you will start to remorse/blame yourself..etc.
(2) When the lost things that you've cherish, and everyday you wish it will come back, eventually it will.

Miracle or weird?

2010-10-31T07:53:00.000-07:00

Yes! I knew I could do it!

As the word "Passed" flash before my eyes, I jumped for joy.

"Miss, you can go home now." said the instructor, giving me an odd stare.

"Oh, thanks." with that I hurried out.

The first person I sms to is Cheryl.... Then to the rest of my good friends who encourage me one way or the other. It's not weird for me to want her to be the first to know other than my boyfriend. (FYI, he actually forgets that I was taking the test that day itself.) With Cheryl advise, I'm still looking out for instructor but I am half-hearted of learning manual. I know I SUCK very badly at manual but everyone around me just keep buzzing it to me.

I know the benefits of getting a manual license but hey, I am the one who is going to drive my car in the future. The next question that pops into my mind is: Should I join school and learn instead? For all I know, the instructors, in school base, knows all the test and syllabus. Plus, I have a good chance of passing on my first try. (Come on, I admit women and machine just don't match well.) However, their charges are like blood suckers.

Oh! It's always tough to make decisions.

2010-10-01T08:02:00.001-07:00

It's a little bit funny, this feeling inside. I'm not the one who could easily hide....

2010-09-20T08:04:00.001-07:00

Ok, I can do this. It's as simple as ABC.

"Click." Aha! I've booked it! The Open House at UniSIM on this Saturday (25 Sep 2010) and I really got to get some information if I really am determine to get my Degree. I want to get a part-time Degree as I really don't have any choice since I am working full-time. Luckily, I read on the internet that I can be subsidise 40% if I am above 21 years old, Singapore Citizen and working full-time. Thank God for that.

"Ok, go and check with them how much you need to pay per month." said my dad. I know he is concern about me, since I am going to stress myself studying while working my ass off.

"Yes yes. I'll ask them at the Open House, dad." I repiled, not wanting to look at him. I was a little annoyed by his constant worry and nagging. He realised the atmosphere and went back to his room. I have decided to way down this path, and I will walk to the end of it. If I don't ever let anything happen to me, then nothing will ever happen to me.

I just need to take one step at a time.

2010-09-16T08:11:00.000-07:00

Daddy:" Ah boy, so you are going to ORD soon, right?"

Boyfriend:" Yup, today is the actual day and I'm going to start work in 3 days time."

Daddy:" Oh! That's very good. Now you can start saving and buy a HDB flat."

Seriously, I almost fainted when I hear my dad say that to my boyfriend. What is my dad trying to hint? Quickly get married and settle down with a flat or should I put it down in a nicer term: dad can't wait to marry me off.

No, I am not going to even have a single thought about marriage. It scares the hell out of me, looking at the divorce rate and heard lots of stories about married couples. I hurried out of the house before my dad could start another conversation with him.

"Oh my God! How could dad say that to you." I cried. Ferdy was laughing and I couldn't understand what is so funny. "Whatever it is, I am giving us sometime to build our career path. OK?" I said, with a determine tone.

"Ok, whatever you say. You and your little play-list and ideas. But just so you know, sometime things don't go your way and you will have to re-plan everything."

I guess that's why they call it: tomorrow's a mystery.

2010-09-05T07:20:00.001-07:00

"Ah!" I cried, squeezing the centre of my chest. I could feel my heart being compress, as if someone was trying to squeeze my heart. The needle pain was too much for me to bear that I could not talk nor move at all.

"Are you ok?" asked Ferdy, looking very concern. As he help me to a nearby seat, he couldn't help but only being worried. The pain lasted more than a minute or 2, it was so painful that it felt like hours. "Baby, are you ok? You look so pale.... Your hands are cold and you're sweating." exclaimed Ferdy.

I tried to forcus to calm down and relax, taking small breathe and sitting upright. After afew minutes, the pain subsides. "I'm feeling better. Looks like I can't go for tuition, let me call my terror kid's mother." I said, still holding on to my chest. "I think I better do an ECG, I'm worried."

We reach Raffles Clinic at Tampines 1, and the doctor order ECG for me. "Hmmmm... Looks like your ECG readings are fine, you just need to help me to continue observe." said the doctor, reassuring me. "Ok, but it's just that these attacks have been come on quite often." I exlcaimed. "How often? Are you very stress at work or is there anything that's bothering you? Are you anemic?" asked the doctor. "Nope. No stress at work nor is there anything that is bothering me. But I do have Beta Thalassemia and childhood asthma.." I said. "Well, that could be a cause of your chest pain as well, just continue to monitor. Don't worry." with that, the doctor gives me a reassured smile.

Whatever it is, the pain still comes even up to today. I follow what the doctor said, continue with what I'm doing and just monitor.

2010-08-29T22:28:00.000-07:00

It wasn't the best day of the week. Try having a day like mine;

I had lunch with my collegues at China Town on Friday afternoon. "Hey, let's go for a walk around People's Park." said YH. "Sure, I heard there are shop selling alot of cheap stuff. I wanna have a look at them." I cried.

And I got what I asked for. Right before me stand 3 stores carrying the same shop name. It was that huge and all my daily products were there too. I took one of my favorite facial wipe and it stated: $6.90.

WTF.

At Watson, I got it at the price of $13 and the best part it was discounted item! The next question that came to my mind was, when is the expiry date?

September 2012.

OMG.

Cheap and the expiry date is so far off. What kind of trade or export is this? How can they get all these good at such a low bargain? I went home, feeling so con by those retail outlets. "OH! How can I be so stupid! Why didn't I think of buying my daily products from a conventional sotre, rather than wasting money at retail outlets. I feel so deceived!" I cried, while Ferdy was watching his favorite drama. "Don't worry, we will go get them when you need it. Welcome to the Cheapo Club." he said, half laughing at me.

"Oh, whatever.. It time to feed Fei Fei and Mo Mo." and as I sat down on the floor, I look into Fei Fei's cage. He was lying there motionless.
"Fei Fei?" I call out, hitting the cage gently. Still no moment. I don't recall Fei Fei would sleep at this hour, he would still climb around his cage. Even if he sleeps, his sleeping position has changed.

"Dear, something's wrong with Fei Fei. He's not moving, not responding to me..." my voice started to tremble, as I fear for the worst. "Oh no. Fei Fei?" he hit the cage and Fei Fei lied there motionless.

"No! It's only been a year and a month.... I fed him well, change his beddings... I..." tears following down my cheeks and Ferdy huge me. "I'm sorry sweetheart. But that's the way it is. Hamster live for 1-2 years. I'll help you with this."

Carefully, he rap Fei Fei together with the beddings and newspaper. We went down to the huge rubbish bin and place Fei Fei inside. (FYI: we are not allow to buried animals in Singapore grounds.)

"Goodbye Fei Fei, I'll miss you."

That night, I cried myself to sleep. Fei Fei was a great companian for me whenever I was doing my sit-ups and leg raise. Fei Fei would always "exercise" with me. Now, I'm only left with Mo Mo and I don't know when will she leave me.

As least I know there is this one person who won't leave me, no matter what happens.

2010-08-25T21:22:00.000-07:00

Oh my goodness. Is this my bedside table?

As I was going through all those books and boxes of jewelleries, I found a big black diary. I don't recall any of it's contents. Thus, I couldn't help but to read the contents and I could not believe what I have read.

It's all about James.

Why? After all these years, memories of him are gone. I've erased his email address, blog, and even his pictures. I have tried to put him behind me and move, and now this stupid book came out of nowhere and jump-start my memories of him. Darn it!

While reading, I couldn't help but feel the same old aching pain in my heart. I realised and confirm one thing, I was waiting for him to come back to me while we were still in Poly and until this girl call Mandy came along, I told myself to give up and move on no matter what it takes. I also realised that I'm very strong-headed about my decision even though sometimes I wish I had not. (How dumb can I be?)

"What are you reading baby?" ask Ferdy, rubbing his sleepy eyes. I jumped upon hearing his voice. "God! You scared me. I'm reading my old diary book. Erm... It's all about someone..." I said, sheepishly. "About who again? Yawn~"

"It's about James. Don't worry, I'm going to burn it away." I said, trying to reassure him.
"Oh. Do you need me to help you with it?" asked Ferdy, this time, I can feel his eyes staring at me seriously.
"It's OK, I can manage." I smile at him, confidently.

2010-08-09T10:10:00.001-07:00

I'm so excited! I know this is not the first time I'm celebrating Singapore Birthday but I'm an old fashion girl. I'm looking forward to celebrate it with my boyfriend at his buddy house. It's going to be awesome.

"Dear, let's wear the couple shirt I bought from Bangkok." I wink at him. "Sure! But we got not much time left, I'll go home and get change and meet you at Tampinese MRT by 3.30pm?" he said. "Sounds good."

With that, I started getting ready and my brain is already imagine the scene of what will it be like at his buddy house. Gosh. I am really looking forward for it.

As I reached the mrt, an sms just came in.

Sorry darling, the shirt strung in size that I can't wear it.

This is just great, I'm looking like a secondary school girl all thanks to this couple shirt. Darn it! I tried to cool myself, and as he arrived, he can tell I'm not looking too good. "Are you angry? It's not that I don't want to wear it, it's too small." he exclaimed. I kept quiet throughout the journey to meet the boys.

By the time we finish watching movie "Salt", it was already 7.30pm. "Hey, so are we going to S place?" I asked Ferdy. "Nope, change of plans. We're not going to his place, look at the time. It's so late. So we decided to play LAND." he said.

This is JUST GREAT! Doing something that what boy do best isn't something that is cut out for me. I was so looking forward to celebrating NDP with friends at home and this is the shit I get in return? "I'm hungry." I demanded. All the boys follow me, as if they sense something is wrong.

"Ok boys, enjoy your gaming, I'm going to meet my friend now." I said, my black facial expression unchanged. "Who is it?" ask Ferdy. "SG."I said, coolly.

With that, I storm off. I felt so heavy hearted, till the point I really wanted to cry. It is not the first time he disappoint me. I am sick of all these insincere and lies and "last minute changes". I had to let it all out and the only person who pop up in my mind is SG.

"Seriously SG! Must I always be the one to give in, be understanding. It's not the first time this has happen. So what we talk things out but the same problem keep repeating itself." I said, feeling my heart aching. "Hmmm...... Have to try talking to him or tell him how you feel?" ask SG. "What's the point of telling him when the same problem keeps repeating itself. I know what I have to do. I want a cool off period!" I said, with such determination that SG give me a stare. "Ok, do what you think is the best for you." he said, after a thought.

2010-07-25T21:56:00.000-07:00

The sun soft rays touches my skin and I was enjoying the vitamin D getting adsorb into my skin.

C and I had participate in the Shape Run 2010 5km and we were very excited. I was determine to run continuously to the end. "Good morning ladies! It's 7.15am and before we begin let's all warm up...... ........ ....."

"Hey, look over here!" C call out to me.
"Nice! Put the picture on Facebook!" I said.

After the warm up, it's already 7.30am and the run had begin. C and I run beside each other and for the first 2km we are doing pretty good. Then, C suddenly stop.

"Oh come on, it's already half the battle won! We can do this!" I tried to sound encouraging.
"No, my leg is cramping up. It's so hard now. Feel it." claim C.

Just as C had describe, her muscles were harden. Perseverance keep C and I moving, we were only 1km before the finishing line. "Come on C! Only 1 km left. I can see the stage!" I said, trying to cheer her up. "I.... oh! Give me some support..." she said, almost out of breathe.

"Hi ladies! Doing great. Come on! It's only a few more steps. Think of breakfast! Just finish this run and you can have a good meal! That's all. See you all at the finishing line!" the lady run off with that.

"Hey, she's right! Ok, C think of McDonald's! Gambatae!! Faster! To the finishing line!" I said.

As we approaches and with only 300m left....
"C! let's speed up!" I call out to her and with that I sprint to the finishing line. I turn back and saw the timer: 38min 45seconds. Oh my! It's worst than last year timing. But my goal was to run without stopping and I did it! Ha!

"C! We made it! We finish it! hurray! Breakfast here we come!"I said, happily.
"Yup, but let's eat Kway Chup instead." said C.

2010-07-24T20:16:00.000-07:00

No more shopping for clothes, I must overcome my fear!

Nope, I am not going to look at blogshops.
Nope, I am not going to look at retail outlets.
Nope, I am not going to...... I need to get body shower gels. I just remember I only have less than 1/4 of it left.

Ok, think affordable, think save the environment, think cheap.

Body shop, I would have to say goodbye to you for now. It's been a year of using your products and it's not effective or perhaps my skin just doesn't react to it. I head down to Watson, and saw the Brand: Simple.

Simple was feature at Cleo magazine and it seem promising for skin like mine, both sensitive and dry and I decided to get one and try.

For sensitive and dry. Ok, this one then. Oh wait, there's another one with calming effect. Shit, why is the commercial world like this? Making it so difficult for you to choose with spoil choices.

Quickly, I put back the calming effect body wash & lotion and move on.

Oh ya, wet tissues. I quickly got the one I saw it feature in Cleo too.

F**k. It's $9.90 for 25 pieces even thought it's discounted price. I can buy 15 packets of normal Waston wet tissue with it! But, it's alcohol free and it can also use as makeup remover too. Well, I guess no harm trying. Ah! Vaseline! I need these for my chip lips. Ok, get the small bottle. I hurried to the cashier and paid off everything, and walk out of the shop keeping my eye sight on ground level.

Then, something caught my attention. Beauty Credit.

It's the Korean beauty product that I was looking for. Cleo also feature their B.B cream (in pink cover) with lots of benefits; for example it helps to detoxifies your skin, makes your skin look more youthful, even out skin tones, have effects to stop blemish, also work as foundation/concealer, have sunblock SPF 46...etc. All 8 in 1. God! I have to have it!

"Hi, how much is for this one?" I asked. "It's $68 after 20% off." said the assistant.
My eyes grew bigger, my jaw dropped and my mind just couldn't digest the price. $68 for this small bottle? It's daylight robbery!

"As you can see, it has many benefits. Acts as foundation and concealer too. Has sunblock of SPF 46, even out skin tone and even purify your skin and keep pimples at bay." the assistant smiling at me. Then, I notice the purple colour one. "What about this bottle here?" I asked, curiously.

"Oh. It's basically the same thing just that the sunblock SPF is only 15 and it's smaller in size. You can apply your own sunblock with more SPF and then apply this. Works great too. It's only $47 after 20% off." she exclaimed.

I went home, feeling so happy with myself. I've got beauty products for my face and body. Yippee!

"Honey, what are those you're holding?" asked Ferdy.

Happy feeling's gone.

"Nothing, I was just getting some body shower gel and lotion. Lip balm and sun block for my skin...." I said, avoiding his gaze.

"Well this purple bottle looks expensive. How much is this?" he asked while looking through my other stuff.

"A hundred and four!" I tried to hide my laugh and look into his eyes as innocently as I can. I just wanted to see what will his reaction be/ him freak out, thus this small white lie.

"Whaaaattt...." his jaws dropped.

Ha! I'm good at playing this game.

"Nope, I lied. It's only $47." I said, half laughing.

"Oh! Thank God! If it's really $104, I'll be......." he's lost for words. "Wait a minute, why did you buy this for? You've got a lot of makeup products and 2 sunblocks on your dressing table."

Ah! Looks like I'm back to square one. Damn it.

2010-07-17T19:45:00.000-07:00

Ah HA!

I know I can do it! Not to pat myself on the back and say:" Job well done!" I haven't spend a single cent for the past 3 weeks. The reason for this small success is just by thinking of my Bangkok trip end of this month. Hurray!

"Mei, have you start packing up already? Have you realise our trip is just next week?" ask my sis. "I'll start packing later. I'm going out to meet Ferdy at Bugis."

Happily, I went out like a speed train before she could ask another question. As I reach bugis MRT, a little voice started speaking:" It's been months since you last step into Bugis Street, why not take a look around. There's no harm to it."

Before I knew what I was doing, I was standing right inside a small shop with vintage summer dresses. My hand was touching one of the lace belt and I can't take my eyes off them. "Hey miss, it's only for $10 after GSS. Let me suggest the brown colour, it will suit you much better." claim the sales assistance. "Right you are. How much for this sun dress?" I asked, can't help feeling the excitement. "$20 after discount. Usual price is $45. It's really a good bargain and look, you look so adorable in it!"

To tell you the truth, that sales assistance have the mouth of honey but the moment she mention the word ADORABLE, I got turn off. "I'll just get the belt, thanks." "Alright, if you still want the dress, remember you just have to turn around and come back here ok?"

Ok, I got what I wanted so I should leave now. Oh my goodness! That's top is so sweet and unquie. "Hi, how much for this off shoulder top?" "$29.90. It's our own design and no one else has it." No one else? Ha! Finally something out of this world and I can start the trend first. "Ok, I'll get one green off shoulder top please."

I hide the belt and top into my bag, praying hard Ferdy won't see them as he help me carry my bag. "So what did you do while waiting for me?" "Er.... I went window shopping." and I show him my confident smile with teeth showing. "Hmmm... then may I know what is this 2 plastic bags doing in here?"

Shit.

"Oh! That... Well, I was walking and I saw this belt and I really wanted it so much so I brought one. It's just $10! And this top, isn't it sweet? I can wear it in 3 different ways, even showing off my tummy. See?" as I demon for him to visualise. I swear I could see him sigh, vividly.

"Honey, you are going off to Bangkok this month end, remember?" he asked, with a disappointed tone. Seriously, it's slip off my mind for a second, maybe a minute or 2 but come on, can't I give myself a little treat? "And haven't you bought a new dress from M.F blogshop just days before?"

I really need to buy myself a personal financial tracking device.

"Oh, he have yet to confirm that with me. So...."
"Honey, please promise me that you can at least control this shopping for clothing that you already have? You could mix and match them, you are very good at that. Try to save for our future, please?" he plead.

I am now, officially feeling extremely like I'm the villain. Thinking back, I do have a very huge cupboard and I did a pretty good job by filling it up.

"I don't want to burden you but you just enjoy your trip, after that we'll talk about the rest and do something about your shopping spree." he said.

"Ok. For you I can do that."

2010-07-08T21:38:00.000-07:00

Gosh! I can't believe today is the day I'm turning 23. I'm getting older!

OK, let's not freak out, it's not as if I'm dying tomorrow or getting married. Speaking of getting married, 2 days after my birthday is A & M's wedding dinner! Goodness, I must get prepare for their big day! Which means more shopping for me! I need to get a dress, makeup, do up my hair and.. "Stop!!! What are you thinking? Haven't you got that Greek Goddess looking dress from Far East the other day? I'm sure you can look nice in it." claim C.

"But I just receive news that it won't be held at some fancy hotel. So I want to dress down a little." I said. "Oh come on, it's your boyfriend's best friend wedding, at least give them some credit. Let's go through your HUGE wardrobe. Ah! What about this black simple yet sexy dress?" said C, excitedly. "Oh ya! I forgot this dress even exist." I said, laughing to myself.

"And the ankle heels you got from Charles and Keith, it'll suit them! Don't forget your Coach bag." and with that, C had help me to figure what I should wear on the wedding. Nothing too glam, nothing too simple.

Back to my birthday, all the celebration with my friends was all about food. I mean come on, I know I'm super under weight (do the math: height is 1.58m and weight is 41kg) and I know all my friends want me to gain weight and be health. Seriously, it's too much! All of you gotten what you wish for, I gain 2 more kg! Oh no! I can't wear all my clothes and now I have to exercise, if not, the best option for me is to SHOP! Hur hur!

First, Villa Bali with C and gang. Oh God, it's so relaxing that I almost fell asleep. Thank goodness the dancers came out to entertain us. Second, went to Turkish Restaurant with X and boyfriend. My first time to eat such a huge bread and huge plate of meat! My goodness! Third, head down to Clark Quay for seafood with HB & G.

Look at my legs!! Look at them! They are waving at me. Gosh! I've gain so much weight! And my arms, and my waist! Oh God, I'm not going to mention about those. I shall start running and burn those fats off! Gym, here I come!!!!

2010-06-27T04:45:00.000-07:00

Ok, what's the key word: BREATH!

I'm breathing, and remember to talk SLOWLY. Come on, it's not the first time I'm doing this. Smile SinSing, smile brightly at them.

"Hi everyone! My name is SinSing. I'm 23 years old this year. I graduated from NgeeAnn Polytechnic, majoring in Health Sciences Nursing. My favourite hobbies is running. I even sign up for Shape 5km for the pass 2 years. I love running because I feel so much alive and energetic. I also feel healthier and better about myself. Thank you." with that, I smile as sweet as I can at the 2 interviewers. "Ok, thank you everyone. You can wait outside and our staff will get back to you ASAP."

All 10 of us went to the common area and waited, talking about where we're from, who we supported in the World Cup. Then, everyone heart stopped when a girl approaches:" Ok, I'll call the names now. Nilco, Amenda, Christ, Ferdy and Felicia. These are your resume, thank you for participating with us. The rest of you can process to the next round."

What? Oh my Gosh! I got into the next round! I did it! Yes! Yes! "Well, let's not be too happy yet..." came a male voice. Great, he just break my bubble of thoughts, but he's right. I shouldn't be too happy about it yet. I still got 5 more round to go. "Miss Tan SinSing? Please, this way." came a female voice. "Please give me your I/C and your certs. I just want to do a comparison." As she flip through my certs, her smiles fades, it became an unsure kind of expression. "Sorry, give me a second. Let me check with my colleague." I realise it's because of my GCE O'Levels English result. It was a D7.

"Ok, Miss Tan. You make process with the rest, we will call you shortly."
"Thank you." I smile at her and went back to my seat. Before I know it, a girl call out my name again. "Miss, we need to take your height."

Immediately, I get up and went to her. "I'm sorry, you didn't make the height requirement." What? You must be kidding. I look at her dumb-founded for a minute and took my belongings, bid the rest of the group good luck and farewell.

How could it be? The other try out they let me through, but now it's another NO? Oh well, SIA is an award-winning airline and it's the best airline in the world. Of course they have set standards and criteria, and there goes my dream of joining the elites in the service industry.

2010-06-20T06:21:00.000-07:00

OH GOD! Why must it be this? Why is this happening to me?

As I took out my $50 to pay for my items, I am having second thoughts. I mean, come on, I do need clothes to go work everyday. We need to wear clothes, so why not wear pretty clothes or clothes that defines you.

"Thank you! Please come again." chirps in the sales assistant. I smile back at her and walk out of the shop, satisfy with my decision. As I walk pass another shop, the rose pink maxi dress caught my eye. Oh my goodness!! It's the maxi dress I've been looking for, it'll make me look great for the wedding dinner. Before I knew it, I was already inside the dressing room. Oh my, I look like a Greece Goddess. I got to get this!

"I would like a new piece please." I smile happily. "Here you go. You looked really beautiful in that dress. What's the occasion?" asked the sales assistant. "Oh. My friend's wedding is coming, and I haven't got anything nice for the dinner." I said, fingers crossed. I know I had a black simple yet sexy outfit somewhere in my closet, but I needed a maxi dress to prove my feminine side too. "That will be $30." the sales assistant smile at me. Shit! I'm only left with $15 in my wallet. You see, the main reason why I never sign up with a credit card is I know I will definitely over spend, but never with NETS of Debit card. "Do you accept NETS?" I asked. "Sure!"

Oh my God! I can't believe I found it, just like that! I can't wait to show it to my boyfriend, he will be amazed. Suddenly, I stop dead footed. Mango is on sale! It's on 50% off! What the hell! I hate GSS all of the sudden, it's like they trick you to buy everything you see. I walk into the shop and was squalled by the mad crowd. However, I've only eyed 2 items - a black bag and an acid dye black cum grey jeans and there goes my $19.

It's 6pm, time to meet him and there he was, standing tall in his white polo shirt and berms. As he kisses me he ask:" So how was your day?" "Great! I can't wait to show you what I've got. By the way, do you know where is the wedding dinner going to be held?"

"Nope, they haven't mention anything yet and I haven't receive the invitation card." he's looking at me, puzzled. "Oh. I was just wondering what you think I should dress like - Greece Goddess or simple yet sexy?" "I can only tell you when I have the rest of the information from them." he kissed me.

Oh well, that's why I'm always prepare with choices.

2010-06-14T07:50:00.000-07:00

This entire last week, and I was not totally myself, I practically lose my mind! Perhaps it's my period which made my mood even worst, but my innocent boyfriend had the worst blow ever.

"Let's go..." I smile weakly at him, due to the cramps and I'm feeling anemic from my period. "OH, I'm not joining you. K is hospitalise as well, I'm afraid I need to let you go alone to see uncle A at CGH." he said almost apologising to me. ".... .... Ok."I said with disappointment. I know I shouldn't be selfish, come on, his buddy is hospitalise too.

"You look great in this dress, so beautiful." he chirps in. "So what, it's just a dress, nothing special." I sounded grumpy, with my black face expressing. He got taken aback and said:"What's wrong? Did we plan anything special? Did I do anything wrong? Why are you giving me the black face?"

"NOTHING!" I said, with the most annoying tone. Part of me wish that he could just disappear into thin air and leave me alone, the other part of me wish I could summon up courage to apologise to him. I could tell from his eyes... He's hurt. We both enter the train in silence, awkwardness surround us. At Simei station, I couldn't help but say:"Can you PLEASE go look for K!" "I'm just concern more about you, is that something wrong with that? You're not telling anything and it's not helping at all!" he exclaim. I just stare at him, my mind went blank. "Just go!" I screamed.

I swear at that moment, I can sense that he wanted to slap me. "Can you stop it and tell me what's wrong? Did I do anything wrong? Did I mention something? Did someone bully you at work? Did your boss scold you? Please, just tell me...." he sounded desperate. I was determine to go and cool off, and he send me to the station gate. Without kissing him goodbye, I felt heavy-hearted. I know deep down inside, it was totally my fault.

Finally, Friday came and I met my nursing friend to go for a shopping therapy. I know, I need it desperately too. To fulfill my needs to balance myself and I was all out to get what I needed. A Carol Rino bag which cost me $130, a short $20 and 2 good meals with dark chocolates are all that to hit the jackpot( AH HA!). It was like I'm in heaven, all my worries gone, I felt so much lighter and happier.

So over the weekends, I apologise to my boyfriend. "I'm sorry! I was having my period thus the bad mood, black face and bad behaviour..." I said with my most apologetic voice. "Please inform me when you are having your period, so I can prepare myself."

"Noted!" and with a kiss, everything went back to normal. Thank God for kisses. Phew!

2010-06-02T07:15:00.000-07:00

As my eyes gaze downward, I couldn't help but continue daydream the day I would get hold of it. "Oh it's so beautiful! I must have it. Let's see how much it cost." I said, excited. $55.99 for the phone subscription? What the hell! It's daylight robbery! We have yet to talk about other additional expenses and it's already half of my budget.

"Are you sure you gonna get Motorola Backflip? You should get Iphone. Everyone's getting Iphone. So should you, and look at all the apps and function of Iphone. It's everything in one phone! What more are you bargaining?" R explain with much interest. "Yeah, he's the master of all phones. You should listen to him and come to think of it, Backflip only uses Android as it's OS, not good to invest in it yet. Iphone is still or currently top in the rank." said J, in the matter of fact tone. "Hey guys, to be honest I hate to have the same phone as everyone. Plus, I hate Iphone's keypad. I guess I'm too used to normal keypad. Talking about function, I only need a phone to call, sms and to have Internet access is a bonus."I said coolly.

"Hey, just listen to what you're saying. Internet access isn't anywhere you can get connected, you want to stay on connected get Iphone. Plus, if you really don't like Iphone, which most likely you won't......." I give a hard stare. "Oh come on! I'm just stating the facts. Ok, let say you really don't like Iphone, you can always sell it or trade in to get your Backflip. One way or another." said R.

Actually, that's a great idea. As I search through Google and access to Iphone website, I found myself looking at a phone with so many intelligent install in it. "R, lend me your Iphone. I shall test drive." As I start typing away, either horizontally or vertically, the sense of annoyance came. My finger nails. God, they're in the way. "See! This is what I meant by I hate Iphone keypad. Arrrgghh! This is so irritating! I keep on pressing the wrong key. Look!"I exclaim. "Well, you will get use to it. We all did." say R. "Yeah!" comes J and A voices.

After few hours of learning and getting enough knowledge of both Iphone and Motorola Backflip, I still couldn't decide which phone to get. Come on, it's just a phone. I'm not choosing a dress or shoes that needs to mix and match.

God! This is hard!

2010-05-24T06:55:00.000-07:00

Just like what Rebbecca Bloomwood said:"They have magic cards...." Just as I watch him sign his signature, and there we go without the need to take out any money from my pocket. Clean, neat and cool.

"No you shouldn't even think of getting one, not while you're at a temp job!!"

Oh stop it! Stop thinking.

As we approach the shopping malls, my little innocent heart wishes he would allow me to use his credit card buy gifts for me. He turn and look at me:" So where to next?"

"I don't know, I haven't got any other plans for the rest of the day." I said, hoping he would suddenly get a brain and suggest he'll bring us shopping.

"I know, let's catch this new movie. I heard it's quite an eye catcher." He said with such earnest that I couldn't say no. So we head to Cineleisure and brought 2 movie tickets. The best part was we had 1 hour and 45 mins to kill, so he pop the magic question:" Shall we shop around, if there's something you need to buy."

It was like he read my mind, my knight in his shiny armour came to my rescue. Before I knew it, he was buying lots of things.... ALL FOR HIMSELF! I thought to myself, what a selfish rich guy he is! Oh come on, we're on a date after all. Just a simple meal at a restaurant and that's it? He was like a mad man, shopping for shoes, bags, jackets, shirts, pants, shorts and even BOXES! I felt I was with a female instead...

"Hey look at this! I like the fabric, so soft and smooth and it goes well with my skin colour. I'll try this on and you'll be my judge. OK?" and with that, he dashes into the changing room. Suddenly, I heard some funny sound and the ground started trembling uncontrolled.

"Hey, are you alright inside? What's that sound?"

As I tried to open up the door, it burst open and tonnes of paper, cards, clothes, accessories, bags, jackets everything nice just come flying out at me....

.
.
.
.
.
God. It's just a dream. What the hell.

2010-05-15T21:32:00.000-07:00

As I open my eyes, feeling the warmth right next to mine. I can't help but feel very cosy and loved. Suddenly it occur to me..

SHIT. It's morning. How long have we slept?

9.30am.

What the... I forgot to wake Ferdy up and we slept throughout the night. Oh no.. OH NO! Then the door open, my mother taking the remote control to switch off the air-con.

"Hi aunty!" Ferdy call out, with sleepy eyes. I was hiding under his arms, afraid to look at my mother's expression. "OH! Good morning.... ...." her tone abit surprise. As the door closes, I looked up and ask:"So... How was her facial expression? Was it black?" I asked, with my eyes open as big as I can...

"No expression though." He said as a matter of fact. Oh no, this is bad, really bad. I got out of bed and wash up, pull a chair beside my mother and apologise. "Look, I'm sorry. I forgot to wake him up and we slept throughout."

"Oh forget it. I shan't say anything else. Just don't do the WRONG thing. I'll approve of him."

With that, she went out for shopping. I don't know what else to think but my mother never approve of man sleep over. NEVER EVER. Perhaps my relationship with Ferdy proves something to her, I guess. Nevertheless, Ferdy still wants to respect my mother's household rules.

2010-04-19T07:56:00.000-07:00

OH MY GOODNESS!

Wait, don't freak out... It's just a bill of what I had just spend today: 1) A black cor. pants. $45 and 2) Keith's body wash and lotion $95.

Total damage: $104.

Shit. I couldn't believe myself. I just went to the bank and made a promise to myself I shall not spend unnecessary. But I really need the pants for tomorrow's event, I've got to wear formal and I hasn't had any to wear. Could you imagine what size difference is me and my sis, mind you, I'm a size 4. Anyway, I couldn't resist of going into Mango and spotted this beautiful dress in demin. When I ssaw the price, my heart almost stop. $99 for a demin dress? Oh God!

After meeting Ryan to get my facial mask from taiwan, we had 3 drinks and did what I do the best: Window shopping.

As usual, I saw 2 tops that really temp me to buy. It's like telling you thousand and one reasons why you should buy: " You don't have any blue net top, and not the weather is so hot..." "You'll look amazing, no one will wear the same thing as you.."

Just before I know it, Ryan took it off my hand and pulled me away from the clothes. "You don't need it." He said to me, in a as a matter of fact manner. Thank God for that, if not I might have spend another $40++.

As the way thing goes, I've made good progress so far. Doing my part-time freelance job at events, Ryan suggested I should take up relief teaching. After considering the pros and cons, listening to his thoughts of reasoning, immediately went online and submit my application to MOE. Like what HongBei said:" If there's something on your mind that you want to do it, just do it. Don't wait. You're still young, so don't waste your youth away. Don't regret." She's right, I shouldn't just don't do nothing and wait for something to happen.

My next aim:
1) Driving licesen
2) Renew my BCLS certificate
3) Air-stewardress
4) Singapore Youth Olypics Games 2010 as standby aid
5) Admin in Orange telecom (I hope the boss see my CV soon....)

Look like I'm going to be busy again....

2010-04-14T07:34:00.000-07:00

After I have met up with HongBei on Tuesday, I"m filled with so many things I want to achieve.

1) I WANT TO GET DRIVING LICENCE. I want to drive my yellow car. =D

2) I WANT TO WORK with projects.

3) I WANT to run/jog 2.4km or 5km. Can someone do it with me?

4) I WANT TO KEEP MYSELF OCCUPY so I won't think too much.

Live like there's no tomorrow! =D

Learn something new everyday, so you will fill your life is rich. =D

2010-03-18T05:52:00.000-07:00

Great... I just failed my Cambridge interview. =(

Never mind, a great experience gain, I'm quite lucky to have an interviewer like her, she even gave me afew pointers to improve myself. Thank God!

I will not give up yet. =) I'll keep smiling.

Don't worry, be happy!

(*P/S: At least I manage to get an interview with them! =D I should be proud of it!!!!)

2009-10-12T07:20:00.003-07:00

I am seriously thinking too much right now. Does anyone have a sleeping pill so that I can just stop thinking and worrying about my work?

I want to enjoy every moment of my life, not worrying what has yet to come.

2009-10-11T07:05:00.000-07:00

You held me close to your heart, keeping faith.

You told me you believe in me, in us, never letting go no matter what happens.

You told me you understands, you didn't blame me.

Kisses on my lips, hugging me tighly, and whisper into my ears...

I love you.

Why?

"There's no reason for it." you said.

I cried, you wipe them off gently. Embrace me forever, till the sorrow goes away.

I could only feel your heart, beating on.

We glaze upon the evening stars, I wish this night last.

2009-09-20T21:02:00.000-07:00

I'm going to the painless dentist!!!!

Yes yes, I know I have told thousand of you that I want to get my teeth done, and the day is coming nearer. My first appointment (17-10-09) with the orth. dentist to consult him if I require any surigcal removal of my tooth. My current dentist said I might escape it, but I'm still scare! I'm a BIG BIG chicken when it comes to pain.

Well, no pain no gain.

I'm so excited and thrilled at the same time. Some told me their experience with the braces, saying it was quite bad and troublesome. You got to take good care of your braces by brushing your teeth after every meal, can't eat stick stuff like chocolate! The most irritating thing is you will be on a diet for 3 days due to the braces pain, no solid food only liquid food. YUCK! I hope I won't have to put the braces for 3 years...

2009-08-21T04:17:00.000-07:00

Darn! I'm down with flu, cough and fever again. No, it's no H1N1.
The sad thing is I missed one session with Cheryl at the aerobics.

My mom came into my room one night, telling me:" My dear, just quit your job. My heart feels painful seeing you in suffer. See, you have alot lot so much weight until I can see your bones. I don't want to see you crying at night, or pull a long face from work. I want to see you cheerful and happy again."

All these talking, makes me want to quit even faster. But, what now? MY collegue said they're disappointed because they train me hard and now I want to leave. MY collegue are upset because I'm not working whole-heartedly, don't understand what's on my mind. They wanted to train me to be work fast and think fast. They always say:" Crystal, not that I want to say you but you must think YOU CAN! You can do it. If not, how come you can get your nursing cert?" The way they encourage me isn't the way I had since I was a child. They would scold you because it was for your own good, they are willing to teach you if you ask. One of my collegue also mention this to me:" Crystal, you think I was born to know everything? I wasn't well educated at all, I only received education till secondary 2. But, why my work is all done because I ask? Even if I get scolded by asking, never mind, I tell myself to learn. Learning takes place everywhere throughout your life. I never stop learning, same goes for you."

A wake up call today. My boss niece is helping us for the next 3 months. OMG! I got to start wake up and grab this opportunity to learn as much as I can. It's never too late to learn right?

Jia you!

2009-05-17T03:56:00.000-07:00

I've been to yoga for 2 weekends now, and I like it. It all started with Cheryl influence. Now, I even have the idea of signing up for aerobics and kick-boxing...(Or perhaps dancing?) I want to be healthy and fit, with a clear mind. At the same time, I could also distress.

Well, I myself have been doing alittle workout at home (sit ups x 100 & running) and it really show shocking results after 1 month. I lost alot of weight (it's not only because I'm extremely stress at work, but it did place a part too.), from 46kg to 42.8kg. I can't believe it myself.

Not only you need to exercise to keep fit and keep your weight at the optimal level, but you ALSO MUST EAT HEALTHILY!

The most important of all is water. LOTS OF IT (7 glasses a day). Not forgetting a balance diet with fruits and vegetables. This not only help you with your weight but also it helps to give your body the energy it require or to cleanse out the waste material your body doesn't needs...

You must be wondering why I mention cleansing. Some food we consume helps detoxify our body - e.g.: berries, strawberries, almonds... Ok, I confess. I've been reading alot on the book call You are what you eat. Which is true.

The given example stated in the book helps me to realise how important the food that we consume day to day affects our body - from top to bottom, head to toe... I was really amazed by the writer and can you imagine all the work and research she must have go through to get all those useful information and share it with the world? WOW!

So do try it and stay healthy. Don't let the flu get you.

To Cheryl, would you want to join me if I sign up for aerobics? =D

2009-05-07T07:16:00.000-07:00

Meet up with Hong Bei and Gwen

Yup, Del was suppose to join us too but guess that she couldn't make it.... Nevertheless, we all enjoy a good dinner at Marche'. Yummy Yummy!

I didn't brought my camera along, all pictures are with Gwen.

Everytime we meet, we are sure to go home with a very full stomach. hahaha! =D

2009-05-02T09:25:00.000-07:00

I'M NOT GOING TO WATCH HORROR FILM ANYMORE!

I can't eat nor sleep and those images keep running in my head... OH GOD! Yes, I admit I'm a big chicken when it comes to horror movies. I thought I could be brave and watch it with boyfriend, but I was so so SO WRONG. Most of the time, I was shutting both my eyes. Only hearing those horrifying screams and shouting.

Friday the 13 was making my having palpitations and upon home, my sister watched Texes Chainsaw: The Beginning. OH MY GOODNESS!

I'm so gonna have nightmares...

Ok, never mind about these silly fear of mine. At least, I had a good time shopping with my mother. We went to Tampines Mall & Century Square, instead of Tampines 1, we hunt for newborn's clothing while I look for my foundation - Ettusias. It's light and really matt your skin, making your face look all natural and faweless. The sale promotor told me to get the loss powder asshe feels that I don't require any heavy make-up and I'm looking for foundation that keep pimples at bay and protects my skin from harmful day-to-day exposure (UV sunray, harmful gases, germ/bacterials...etc). This new compact foundation not only comes with medication but also elements for protection - 2 in 1 loss powder - It cost a total of $64.
Remembering that I was looking for make-up removal in a liquid form (not those milk kind) as I found out it's much better for my skin type... They have it too! Just simply pour alittle amount onto your hand and spread it across your face, massage and finally wash it away with water. Even though this can't be use for heavy make-ups, it's good for sensitive skin. =D

I'm starting to like Ettusias products, not only because alot of people recommended and I've seen so many magazines are advertising about this product. It's the quality that counts.

Alright, I got to go back to my project work... God bless!

2009-04-28T06:12:00.000-07:00

Success or Happiness?

If you ask me, I would rather choose happiness. What is life without happiness? Being successful means you are going to give up almost everything - Time, freedom, friends, family...etc... and you only gain fame and high income, or perhaps even power... But it is not what I call happiness. You can't use money to buy anyone happiness.

I have been unhappy ever since I've started working.

Signs and symptoms:

Having disturb sleep.
Crying almost everyday.
Getting scolded/nagged at most of the time.
Keep making mistakes even though I've tried to remember.
Eventually, I'm scare of going to work. Worrying about this and that.
Eating more and more...
Feeling very tired even though I'm in my early 20's.
I even thought of ending my life.

You can see how stress I am at work. Some encourage me to quit, but my boyfriend supported me throughout these 12 months. He asked me not to give up on myself, becaue he knows I am capable.

Should I hold on and try again?

I know I can, don't give up yet!

Thank you my dear. I love you!

He brought me to East Coast Beach to have some fun... =D

Weather's so HOT HOT HOT! Better get hydrate more!
Oh! Look at my poor legs...
AH! Look, it's going to rain soon...

And He's right... It rain heavily...

2009-03-28T23:11:00.000-07:00

New mall at Bugis...

I've forgotten what its name was - something like FilmGand?

I read it on the newspaper a week ago and since boyfriend and I were shopping at Bugis street, may as well go and have a look.

It's Grand and Huge! And the movie tickets was selling only $6 (terms and conditions apply). Cool! There are so many up-coming movies I WANT WATCH!

And yes, we went to catch Shopaholic... I'm a big fan of this book series and the author. You should try reading the book though. =D

I am definitely not going to miss this one:-

I want your walnut Mr Sabatooth squrriel!

And so does my boyfriend. (hahaha!)

At the end of the day, I just love the feeling of shopping. Just like what Rebecca Bloomwood would say:" It just make the world a better place."

All the more reason to keep shopping girls!

2009-02-03T04:31:00.000-08:00

What have I been up to?

And there still more to come! =D

2009-01-25T19:22:00.000-08:00

Reuion Dinner and Chinese New Year Countdown.

This year Reuion dinner was brought forward one day early. We had home-make cok food by my mother and steamboat provided by my sisters. DELICIOUS!

I thought my information on River Hong Bao was wrong, rumour has it that it's no longer at the same old place as last few years... WRONG! It is, just that they move it to the Marina Platform and it is AS CROWDED AS EVER! (Too bad Cheryl & gang didn't come along this year!)

And we home after watching the - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Fire crackers.

HOW DISAPPOINTING! but nevertheless, I'm glad to have come to RiveHongBao every year.

Happy Chinese Niu YEAR! =D

2009-01-20T05:06:00.000-08:00

Outing With the poly girls~

It's great to see them, still the same old person yet grown into a beauty. We had dinner at Bukit timah hawker centre, and ice-cream at The Daily Scoop Ice-cream Cafe.

We shared our new year resolutions and decided to meet up ASAP... hahahah! Thanks girls.

2009-01-14T01:54:00.000-08:00

Happy 21st Birthday to Ms Cheryl Choong

I was there since day 1 of her chalet. Needless to say, I'm there to help out. =D

I couldn't wait to give her present, so I hide it inside her sis bag. ( I thought she wouldn't dare to open it. I WAS SO WRONG!!!)

It's her life cycle... And the whole book took me a total of 3 days to complete.

From carrying the food, utensils, party decorations to birthday photographer. Day 1, after moving everythnig int the chalet, we went to enjoy ourselve at Escape Theme Park. The most memorable ride was going into the haunted house. I was scared, twice, by the fake dummies.

In the evening, I taught them how to play the retarded game, "Papa, Mama". All thanks to that game I didn't get enough sleep and head off to work in the morning, and finally return to help Cheryl on Day 2.

The deco team were half way finishing blowing up the balloons and I help Cheryl & her sis hanging up the wording.

At the end of everything, I was extremely exhausted yet I'm happy. Because her birthday was a great success. =D Happy Birthday my dear girl! =D

Friends Forever cum Sisters Forever!

New year resolution 2009...

OH my GOODNESS~ I forgot all about this post! How could I....
Alright, after much self reflection of 2008 happenings, I've come out with few new resolution..

1) I must "TRY" to be more feminine, more lady-like and STOP being so tom-boy. My mom and my sisters couldn't stand it. Judging it from my point of view, I think it's time I take a tiny bit of action. Some might say, you look all sweet and gentle... HELLO? Don't judge a book by it's cover, surely everyone has heard of this phrase before. I may look all soft, gentle and fragile, but actually I'm very TOM-BOY! I love jeans more than dresses. I HATE wearing high heels and can never understand how my sisters and the other ladies on street can carry off like a model. I HATE putting on make-up as I have this stigma against it. I mean does putting on make-up helps protecting your skin against pollutions? Last but not least, I EXTREMELY HATE wearing perfumes. I will faint just by smelling them.

Isn't this terrible? So from now on, I should try wearing more dresses or skirts. I should try wearing short heels for a good start (except for working days, heels distract me alot). I should start putting on at least eye make-up so I can look more focus and alert... However, perfumes are still a big NO NO. =P

2) Skin care... Yup, in the past my skin has been dry and scaly... Why didn't I do something about in the past? I'm not born rich OK, and I did alot of things like consulting a skin specialist, apply on body lotion from all sorts of brand from Watson. Non of those worked and I ended up feeling hopeless. Then, one friend of mine happen to had the same problem advise me on some good products and methods to get rid of those unwanted dead skin cells/dry surface... Now, being a good girl I have been using Body Shop alovera body lotion, shower gel and body scrub. True enough, after few weeks of using I see great results. My skin is much fairer and smoother. THANKS Body Shop!

3) Goodbye black heads! I had been bother by those stubborn blackheads around my nose area. Those pile-off only create more black heads and it's so painful... Luckily, I resorted to Silkpro facial rub. It removes dead skin cells and at the same time those stubborn blackheads will slowly be clean out. With the additional help of daily facial scrub from Clean & Clear and facial products from Clarins help improve my problem so far... =D

4) Save while I earn... I got to do something about my future, in case for emergency/studies/etc... I can't relay much on my parents, I'm a big girl now... However, next year is Ox year which means hard work ahead. Everyone, JIA YOU!

5) Stay healthy and stop falling sick. Ever since I've started working, I have been falling sick on and off. Which is very irritating and tiring at the same time. Not forgetting I have lots 4-5Kg of my original weight. Perhaps I should go back to gym and run the track-mile.

6) Work hard, play hard... It's not easy for me to change my status from a student to a working adult. Sad to say, I'm still trying hard to change. In my heart I still love being a student, always wanting to learn new and interesting things, craving for more knowledge. However, working is great difference. You face different people who wants different attention, you face problem/situation and need to react fast, your work load demands alot from you... i need to learn how to be serious at work but at the same time "play" with the situation on hand.

7) Tooth fairy says:" It's time for braces!" Seriously, I'm still pondering whether or not I should do it. I'm a BIG CHICKEN! I don't have much money to spend over $3000+ on just my teeth!!! OUCH! Let me consider again... "Thinking cap on"

8) Friendship... OK, I know some of you are really MAD at me. Don't blame on boyfriend because this got nothing to do with him. I admit, I'm bad at planning my time but I can assure you that I had try to do something about it, now. Sorry my sweethearts~ I shall spend my Thursday & Saturday on you all unless none of you needs/wants my company. =) Boyfriend, my Friday & Sunday are all yours. HAHAHAHA!

Yup, that's about all I need to change for the time being. God bless and take care! =D

I love you all!

2008-12-31T20:38:00.000-08:00

Merry Christmas 2008

And this is just how I spend away my Christmas Eve and the day itself.

I met up with Amelia for lunch and spend the rest of the day at Balacolava.

Got home early and count down to Christmas Day with my parent and Ferdy...

5... 4... 3... 2... 1... MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
ON Christmas say, Ferdy and I went to Da ge's house for celebration. We had 2 wonderful chef who cook to our stomach content... Beef/Lamb chop meal, turkey meat and Tiramisu. The most funniest part of the meal was when Shida tried to cut out the Tiramisu. It was frozen soild and al of us were trying to figure out out to take it out of the metal mold...

Gotten crazy over cutting the tiramisu...After that, we continue jamming with Wii rock band world tour game set.

My sis is a very good drummer while I'm good a guitar.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all!

2008-12-07T18:54:00.000-08:00

Boyfriend took me out to East Coast Beach for rollor bladding. =D
I'm so happy and finally get to enjoy some sunshine on my face.
It's been along long time since I have done this.

Dear Ferdy, thank you for this day. I enjoy every moment of it even though at the end it wasn't what we have planned. =D

I love you.

2008-11-16T05:19:00.001-08:00

Sushi making

Cheryl and I were so excited today! My mom promise to teach us how to make sushi. Yipee!

So we head down to Tampines Mall to grab all the ingredients my mom told me. It only took less than 2hour to complete thet whole sushi.

And it's done! Well, it's our first time and I believe the taste isn't that wonderful. At least boyfriend seem to enjoy them. =D

2008-11-09T06:01:00.000-08:00

A day out with my family.

I broughht mommy to town this morning, she wanted to go Paragon's Metro Sale.

Next, I met up with bro for a movie and head back home. (initially I was suppose to meet up Terrance)

Finally, when out for dinner with sis at Ding Tai Fong. Yummy!

And now, I've got to be alittle budget. =P Oops~

2008-11-01T22:35:00.000-07:00

My decision is

I've finally curl my hair... With Cheryl's advise, she recommand me to Monsoon Group Hairstylist - Adeline. She was there with me the whole time. Thanks sweety! I was given a package which includes Digital Spa perm, hair cut, hair treatment etc.... Total bomb of $233.

This is how I look, the hairstylist change my parting. Making my looking like a doll? I'm not used to it and I change back to my old parting. SIGH!

Oh well, like Cheryl said, I will definitely miss my long striaght hair. I'll change it back next year for sure. =D

2008-10-25T07:02:00.000-07:00

New hair style for a change...

I've been giving myself some thoughts on what hairstyle should I change to...

I've tried from, between long hair to short shoulder length hair, dye my hair once (and I swear to God that will be the last time!)...

So I've decieded to do curls. I've done it on my birthday celebration -
I'm starting to like it...
Or should I just stick with my long straight black hair? Hmmmm......
Oh! It's so hard being female at times... LOL~

2008-10-24T09:20:00.000-07:00

Table BBQ - Japanese style

The most outstanding thing I could remember is you can eat without worrying if you'll be smelling like a BBQ pork on the way out... It has well equiped BBQ grills that suck in all the oily gases into the pit itself! The best part of the course it definitely the FOOD!

It is located at Vivo City level 1.

And just when I thought all the food were served...

Afew more dishes were added on... PERFECT! =D

2008-10-20T07:29:00.000-07:00

FINALLY!!! I've meet up with my girls from Poly. MISS THEM SO MUCH!

The crazy bunch of girls who simply love food... They are:

(1) Delphine aka Del

(2) Wanlin

(3) Gwendaline aka Gwen

(4) Hong Bei aka Hong Bei Bei

So, we ordered sting-ray, fried egg with oyster, satay, Chicken wing with lime, Hokkien Mee, Malay traditional fried rice, mee soto (I think so), fried kwek taoi and fried fish slices. YUMMY! And I thought we should order some more, but it was the right amount.

Then, we chill out at the *BIG DUIRAN* and share our new working experiences. Sigh, I miss going back to school. I miss being all crazy, care-free and laugh/joke around, being so happy-go-lucky all the time.

Everyone's pretty much the same, Delphine is still as hardworking, understanding and full of hope. Hong Bei is still as late as ever... and she's our "mother of the day because she drove all of us home". Wanlin is still as funny and quiet, but she really slim down ALOT! Last but not least, Gwen still love to take photo of everything around her.

we'll be meeting up next month too.. I'm so excited! =D

*More photo will be uploaded soon.

2008-10-04T21:45:00.000-07:00

Escape into fantasy..

Boyfriend surprise me by taking me to Escape theme park to relief my stress. =D
It's been almost 6 years since I last step into that place. Even though there's been afew fatal events reported, but tourist and fellow thrill seekers are still there for the fun. Too bad rainbow, panasoic was on maintainance. We went onto almost all the rides and I had my fun bit of share by screaming out LOUD.

We got 2 extra free tickets... =)

And we went to attend BBQ at Jaex's place.. I haven't been there for quite some time, there's some new renovations done too.

* Something's wrong with my upload... Till then, no pictures to show..

God bless!

2008-09-13T05:55:00.000-07:00

And here's the rest of the photos...

~//~

Yet again, another important to celebrate. Happy birthday to my bro Ivan. I've know him since early childhood days. I'm so happy for him, time to grow up and be a man! =D

Lucky Ivan got a loving girlfriend, she really surprise him by organising everything for this special day. Hurray! =D

2008-09-06T07:59:00.000-07:00

Happy Happy BIRTHDAY to Mr Terrence aka ZhiHui

Cheryl and I decided to give him a small surprise, but first thing's first, SHOPPING!

We went to City link for a quick short stop at MS SIXTIES, we both got a top. Soon, it's time to head to Cafe Cartel at Raffle City. ZhiHui got a shock when the waitress walk towards him, asking:" Is today your birthday?" He was so happy that he didn't know how to react I guess. (*Photo is still with his friends)

Next stop, Suntec City. Cheryl and I need to look for a gift for Ivan's 21st birthday. Thank God Ryan had given me a gift voucher from G2000. Along the way towards to suntec, we saw something interesting: -

Little children playing around in a BALLOON!

First, the little boy climbs into the balloon. Nest, They'll zip up the opening and pump air in. Soon, it's all fill up and ready to go. Cool!

Found out they're call woof balls, but I forgot where they're from. To find out more, please head down t Suntec City main entrance. =)Finally, we head to our next destination - Balacalava. I had champagne belini while Cheryl and ZhiHui had Tequila Sunrise. I got so worry when I saw Cheryl's face turnning hot red. Luckily, her boyfriend's there to help look after her. Cheers!

Last but not least, we head down to HongKong Cafe for supper. (Photo's still with ZhiHui.) Had a wonderful time collecting songs from Cheryl while they makan. Oops~ I will edit when I got all the photos from ZhiHui. After filling our stomach, we took bus home and God was it a LONG journey home. It took about 1 and half hours, so long that my butt hurts~ Sigh, I got to learn how to drive.

Till next update... God bless~

2008-08-31T05:11:00.000-07:00

Touch by an Angel

My temperature has subside to 37.6 degrees. So I decided to go out for some fresh air. I hate to stay at home since I've done that yesterday, and since boyfriend had a place in mind, so we went out. Regardless of my mom's nagging/warning my fever would come back, I still want to step out of my home and spend some quality time with boyfriend.

True enough, my temperature shoot right back to 38.3 degrees. Boyfriend hug me tightly, comfort me, doing all he can to make me feel better. =)

You must be thinking I'm silly, but whenever he's not around by my side, I feel there's something amiss. Worst come to worst, he's going in to serve NS in 12 days time. Sigh! I'm gonna miss him dearly... My world's gonna change when boyfriend is in NS. I got to be more independent and confident. When I'm sick, I got to take good care of myself. Less hug and kisses. Less time for our moment together. Sigh...

I got to be strong.

2008-08-16T20:55:00.000-07:00

Happy birthday to Miss Annabelle~

It's her adorable birthday cake... It looks too cute to be eaten up.

And our birthday girl looks so stunning! Thanks to Melissa and Jasmine, the artist cum hair-stylist cum photographer. =D

It's yet another happy event, filled with joy and laugher. She was filled with tears of joy, showing her appreciation to all the guest. Belle, stay happy and forever pretty! :)

2008-08-15T23:23:00.000-07:00

Sing till the cow comes home~

It's just another good activity to distress your day. I scream my lungs to the top and yes, I definitely feel GOOD. =D Then again, I haven't been to PARTY WORLD with them for some time.

2008-08-08T21:27:00.000-07:00

Distress your night away...

And the best therapy is dancing and chilll out with friends who are good at both drinking and telling silly jokes. Ferdy and I met up with Pris, Dennis, WeiMing and BaoLi. Had alot of fun playing games - Ferdy and I kept getting penalise

Soon, it's time for me to head home while the rest stay on through the night. Thanks all~ Will meet up again. =D

2008-08-02T23:13:00.001-07:00

A night with the wild...

There's trible performance where they will ask tourist to join in the dance.

And you get the chance to take a up-close photo with the animals as many times as you want.

I was abit terrify to take a picture with this snake. But it's know to be warm and friendly.

This kitty is tame but I'm not allow to touch it. Oh well, at least I took a picture with it.

Last but not the least, the owl I have been waiting for. It's all white and soft looking. It's breed in south africa and London (if I'm not worng) and they are shy in nature. CUTE!

And finally, after a long queue we got ourselves a front seat fr the show. Speak the truth, the auditorium is filled mostly with Indians. I wonder what's the occasion. One of the disappointments during the show was some of the tourists simple DON'T UNDERSTAND simple English. No camera flashes were allow during the show because it will hurt the animal's eye-sight. Yet, the flashes keep on going and the MC had to reinforce the announcement over and over again. Please, protect the animal!

2008-07-24T06:29:00.000-07:00

Shopping woes

I really really REALLY mustn't go shopping with my dearest...

It's like for most men - They shop for a purpose. Just get what they need/get what they wanted and without stepping into different shop to check for the price once they had brought their things.

When it comes to most of the women - We shop for the joy & fun of it. We know the "art" of shopping and thus knowing how to appreciate it. We can walk into each and every shop just to take a good look at the product cum quality. Most of us would do comparision over brands/price/quality of the product and ended up buying everything/just give-up buying anything. For us, it's really a big headache to just shop for only one thing in a day. Because, we would still walk in to a shoes shop even when we said we just want shop for clothes. Keeping in mind, the word shopping to us is like shop from top to toe...

I admit I am like this and it's in my nature to SHOP & SHOP & SHOP! I enjoy looking at beautiful displays and good quality products and sales discount items. (*Oh well, I'm becoming like an aunty.) I love to walk into shops even when I know I only needto get one item. (*sometimes don't you realise that you brought more than one thing when you actually needed just one thing?)

Thus, today I learn my lesson when I met dearest for dinner. I was too into with my shopping and forgotten about his "to-do list" at home. We ended up had alittle conflict over this issue. I'm sorry dear, I won't do it again when I'm with you. I just find it boring if we only meet up for dinner and go home immediately. Perhaps we can come up with new ideas - new places to go/new place to makan? Muack!

Alright, take care and God bless!

2008-07-14T05:27:00.000-07:00

Fall in love when down with fever...

Why? My honey cooked lunch for me; porridge with vegetables.

I feel so love and touched by his action very much.

Dearest, I really appreciate all your thoughts for me. REALLY!

Thank you and I'm recovering very soon. MUACK! ~<3

2008-07-12T21:18:00.000-07:00

Happy Birthday to Mr Ryan aka ZhenHe...

Boyfriend and I went to his celebration at - - -

It's our first time going to the west side chalet, and when I first step into the atrium I said to myself "WOW! It's so grand." Of course, it's a club.

We had alot of fun throwing cream at him and throwing him into the pool. Then, running for our dear life to aviod getting caught by him. HA HA! It's always so much fun "sabo" others. =P

Thanks ryan for inviting me! :) Hope you have enjoy yourself, ONCE IN YOUR LIFE 21st BIRTHDAY!

Sunday it is!!!

Standing under the HOT HOT HOT sun, melting away into our skin. Cheryl and I went to the round market for breakfast and after which we went to try for the "wheel of fortune". It was EXTREMELY LONG queue that I almost wanted to give up, but we ended up standing there for 2 hours. Imagine our face and limbs are all red, sweating like a running tap.
Result: Donald's mother won the Grand Prize. Congrates~ =D

Finally, we went back home to rest and take a shower... Phew~ (*We really look like roasted rabbbits.)

KBox Session!

Yesterday, boyfriend and I meet up with Pris, Dennis, WeiMing & BaoLi. We sing till the cow comes home. Had a really enkoyable time singing! =D It's a good way to relief my stress and frustration. Pris and I agree that we're very good at singing those emotional songs, we know how to get into the mood... wahahahahah!

Last but not least, the best way to spend my lazy afternoon is to read the book that Cheryl had brought for my 21st birthday - Remember me? By Sophie Kinsella, my favourite author. =D

~Thanks Sweety! MUACK~ ~<3

What the House Test Says About You

You consider yourself important, but no more important than anyone else. You love attention, but you don't feel like you deserve more of it than anyone else.

You aren't against being community oriented, but it's not really your thing. You tend to prefer to focus on your family and not the neighborhood around you.

You are a playful, charming, and seductive person. People feel instantly close to you.

You take good care of your physical appearance. You dress well, stay in shape, and do your best to look great.

You are moved by romance and love. You are optimistic about people, and you love hearing about happy endings.

The House Test

A true chameleon, you are many things at different points in your life. You are very adaptable.

You are wild, crazy, and a huge rebel. You're always up to something.
You have a ton of energy, and most people can't handle you. You're very intense.

You are a free spirit, and you resent anyone who tries to fence you in.
You are unpredictable, adventurous, and always a little surprising.
You may miss out by not settling down, but you're too busy having fun to care.

You are the total package - suave, sexy, smart, and strong.
You have the whole world under your spell, and you can influence almost everyone you know.
You don't always resist your urges to crush the weak. Just remember, they don't have as much going for them as you do.

You are a seeker. You often find yourself restless - and you have a lot of questions about life.

You have a lot of enthusiasm, but it fades rather quickly. You don't stick with any one thing for very long.
You have the drive to accomplish a lot in a short amount of time. Your biggest problem is making sure you finish the projects you start.

You are deeply philosophical and thoughtful. You tend to analyze every aspect of your life.
You are intuitive, brilliant, and quite introverted. You value your time alone.
Often times, you are grumpy with other people. You don't appreciate them trying to interfere in your affairs.

What's" Your Name's Hidden Meaning?

~~~

I find it hard to believe myself. For those who know me, do you see description as me? Hmmm... Or I haven't really explore my own personality truely are.

2008-06-26T06:22:00.000-07:00

Cookery failed...

Now I understand the meaning of home-cooked food (by our mothers) is the best. I haven't been cooking last 2 years and I decided to try heating up the pizza in the mircowave, and ended up over baked it... I know, how can I bake the pizza in microwave, I must be nuts. Boyfriend and I went to buy grosseries without realising it/we forgotten about it/we're too hungry that we just grab whatever seems appetitising.

Looks like I must (die die have to do it) improve on my cooking skills, if not boyfriend will have to suffer eating over-cook food. Oops~ =

~~~ ~~~ ~~~

I miss blading at east coast with my brother/friends!
I miss eating cheese cake at a cosy comfy cafe & chat all day long!
I miss singing at KTV!
I miss reading my favourite books!
I miss day-dreaming at the beach!
I miss shopping 8hours non-stop at Orchard/Far East/Heeren/Bugis!
I miss being content/peaceful/care-free/non-stressful life!
I miss my old self!
I miss.... ... ...

*SNAP* Oh, I'm awake. Back to reality... It's all just a dream, all in the past.
How many a times will we keep hoping for this? Well, I'll just keep believing and keep trying. I WILL NOT GIVE UP ON MY OWN HAPPINESS! FIGHTING!!!! =D

*To Cheryl, I'm not giving up, so do you. You're independent enough to fight for your rights. You are able to think for yourself and you understand yourself better than anyone else (including me). Just face your fears, admit but don't be defeat by it. Over come it. Do you know, I admit to my own feelings, I know what I'm feeling and sometimes at night I cry myself to sleep. But, I will detach from this feeling and face the world with my bright smile. =D

Working like there's no life or joy in your work? Sweetie, remember this - WE live to work, not the other way round. Not happy with what you're doing:
(1) Ask for something more challenging. You're quite competitive with yourself.
(2) If not, ask for transfer to another branch/department.
(3) If still cannot, change job la.... =P

Money woes? Who doesn't, I have these myself just that I have to learn from it by saving up. I really hate it when I can't spend what I've earn. I know I deserve with all rights to spend all I want, but my little voice keep telling me to save. It will definitely benefit you in future. Hey! You will never know when you will really need MONEY. Perhaps, you can start saving $10 each week?

Communicate, understanding, LISTENING... Is he really listening or are you not listening? Did you communicate everything you want to say to him complete so that he can understand the whole picture? Tell me more when we meet up on Sunday alright? =) No worries.

JIA YOU my sweetie! I'm always around, I WILL STAND BY YOU!

YES! I'm a happy girl! =D

I'm sorry Becky and Liliana, I went on shopping without you girls. I need to do my shopping therapy. Looks like I've found one promising activity to distress. =P (Bad news for boyfriend)

I met up with Ryan, my hao jie mei who help me with my shopping today. First stop a Vivo City, second stop to City link and finally we head off to Bugis Street. Thanks man~
And the list goes on:
(1) A belt - $12
(2) A pair of slipper - $21
(3) Two razor back tops - $22
(4) Halter neck top - $35
(5) Facial make-up removal - $11.90
Total I've spend $101.90

hahaahaha! What a day! I had my favourite. chicken chop bake rice and apple cum carrot juice, and Ben & Jerry's Chocolate Chunky Brownie. Simply satisfying. On my way home, boyfriend was waiting for me at the station. We went back home and did some talking, I love to communicate with him. He would always allows me to speak out everything on my mind and then say his peace.(I wonder how he finds it... I must be VERY NAGY. =P ) MUACK! AT least, it clears my doubts but somehow I need to be reminded though. (Dear, you should know what I mean by now.)

Alright, tomorrow is going to be another world war at the clinic. Jo, let's JIA YOU! FIGHTING FIGHTING FIGHTING~ =D

Ryan, don't forget out meeting on next sunday, I WANT TO GO ROLLAR BLADING!!! Dear, do you want to join too? =D

Take care and God bless!

Excited

I just can't wait for tomorrow! FINALLY, my shopping day out with my girls! =D It's been such a LONG time since my last HUGE shopping spree. Which reminds me, I have yet to watch Sex and the City. Many highly recommend me to watch it, it's both witty and hilarious. It's a MUST WATCH film.

Alright, got to start listing my items. However, I kept hearing my mother's voice in my head:" You can spend what you have earn, but not over your BUDGET." Budget...BUDget.... BUDGET!!! Arghhh! I can only spend at least a $100. Thank God it's GSS, somehow it's more relief for me. Discount items everywhere, sales signate on every stall.

Let's see, I shall get:
(1) A brouse - $15
(2) A shirt - $45
(3) A pair of sandals - $30
(4) A shoulder bag
(5) Facial products - $30 to $50
Therefore, in total I SHOULD spend around $100++. Oops! I shall pray hard now. ><"

Finally!

I went out with Cheryl Choong Meiting~ Wahahaahah! It's been a long long long time since we last we out together. We went shopping at Citylink, got ourselves a nice top. Next, we gave ZhiHui a nice surprise at Cafe Cartel. He was shock when the waitress walk towards him with a tiramisu. =D

Next stop, we decided to go to Balacalava for a drink while waiting for SooGiap. I had champagne Belini and Cheryl had tequila sunrise. Cheryl's face was red hot after afew sips, made me so worried about her getting drunk. But, I was wrong. hahaha!

While on the way to Balacalava, we saw something interesting:

Little children playing around - In a balloon!

First, the little boy climbs into the big balloon. Air is then pump in, taking shape. ANd finally, they push the balloon into the mini size pool. Cool huh?

Cheryl and me... Taken after our drinks. =)

Happy Birthday Mom & Dad ~<3~

We had Dim Sum Buffet at Marina Mandrin Hotel, Peach Blossom Restraunt. Highly recommanded for delicious dim sum and I love the desert I've ordered. It looks like magic potion from the above picture. I was baffle because I didn't notice the management actually place real birds inside the hotel. I hear the birds singing loudly, but I couldn't see them. When I took a turn at the corner of the life, there's a cage. WOW! Adorable little creatures, but I hate to see them in cages. Oh well, for a more natural prospect I guess.

I was intending to drop by da ge's place for a game or two with his Wii, but an important call came. So I'm off to meet my girlfriend, Amelia. Guess we're growing old, I'm getting tired very easily nowadays. I better start joining some aerobic classes. ><

Ciao~
