Lunch!

Happily hectic day. :) Carissa mummy said I was floating in the air and that I walked with a bounce in my steps. How could I not? 1st time JZ ever came to Tampines to meet me for lunch. Not by choice though. Haha. Been liasing with his good friend, Ben, on corporate gifts for the upcoming company event and had to pass Ben the downpayment today. He managed to drag JZ along and we had lunch together. With another friend of theirs also called Adrian. Ate lunch (fishball noodles) at Simpang Bedok. Short 1 hour lunch but was good enough to brighten my day. :p Worked real hard today. But really enjoyed it. I know I'm doing something that I like and I don't mind the hardwork. As long as I ignore the person I don't like, I actually like the work here and stuff. ^.^ And so, I worked til 9pm today with several stuff still undone but those can wait. JZ had been waiting for me since 7pm. Ooppsss.. Luckily he had his friend, Ken whom I also know from Uni, to keep him company. He picked ...

Reservist..

Hectic day at work today. Loved it!! The workaholic loves to work! Haha. The day passed so quickly that I didn't even know. Good feeling to have. :p JZ picked me up from office at about 9pm. Headed to East Coast Lagoon to eat. Ate the beef kway teow soup that always has the super long queue. It's delicious! Then we shared a can of soya milk and another plate of satay beehoon. Left 4 pieces of sliced pork and we played scissors, paper, stone. Loser to eat a piece each time. He lost 4 times in a row! Hahaha. He made my day by picking me up and having dinner with me. Was unexpected as I wasn't expecting to meet him today. Hehe. But.. Sighz.. I became sad after a while. Coz.. He found out that he's going for reservist from 10-22 March. Why am I sad? (1) My company is organising a trip to the zoo on 15 March and I'm the organiser. He can't come!!!! :((((( I'm realllll sad... Sighz.. (2) It's the 1st time we will be apart for sooooo long (2 weeks is considered...

Kungfu Dunk!!!!

Quick post. Super super tired. Not feeling well today coz of hormonal changes. ARGH! Boring day at work again. Spent my afternoon doing my event stuff. Liaised with Ben, JZ's friend regarding quotations for door gifts and looking for chartered bus for the event. Then left for JZ's place. He waited for me downstairs. Headed to Bishan. Walked around and bought 9.40pm tickets to watch Kungfu Dunk. Dinner at Sakae coz I had no appetite at all. Only ate 4 pieces of sushi, 1 gyoza, 1 fried hotate and had plain water. That was all I ate. Pain was too much to take so I took panadol. Movie - NICE!!!! Jay Chou - ULTRA CUTE!!!!!!!!! And the other character in the show - Xiao Lan. Dunno his real name though. Will check with Bee. Thank God for the panadol. Felt so much better and could enjoy the show. Loved it!!! Loved basketball all along. Dunks make me excited. SO COOL!!!! Miss the Michael Jordan era. Yeah, I'm from that era. Hahaha. Came home after movie. I insisted on watching the m...

Found my way..

Woke up in a very good mood. Don't ask me why. I dunno either. Haha. I think I feel happier now that I'm recovering from the rash on my face. Makes my mood fantastic though it was raining today. :p Had lunch with the girls after a week plus of absence. Was ok. Bought contact lens saline, containers, prickly heat powder for Dad and bag cleaner after lunch. Winston xiao di & Carissa mummy accompanied me. :) Mummy said she's happy that I'm back to the normal cheery self. Haha. Oh ya, mummy say I look good in the pics!! Hahaha. :p So happy!!! Boring day at work again. No deals at all. Left at 6.30pm to visit Dad. Reached Yio Chu Kang MRT at 7.35pm.. This time, I wasn't lost!!! Printed the map from street directory website just in case. Haha. Reached the hospital at 7.45pm. Dad was a good boy today and his left leg can move more now! Yay!! Left hospital at 9pm. Talked to Kwang di all the way from hospital to MRT station to home. Haha. We have a lot to talk, always! K...

American - Japanese Girl

Image
Boring day today. Surfed net in office for Taiwan trip in April and did my staff event registration form. That's it. Didn't have any new deals at all today. Left at 6.30pm to visit Dad. Lost. Waited for bus instead. Played DS and this young Secondary School girl chatted with me. She's American-Japanese mixed. Dad's American, Mum's Jap. Chatted regarding my DS, she has 1 too! She told me she had to go MOELC to take Jap classes and didn't wanna go home. Haha. She's cute! Told her it's the 1st time I was taking the bus coz my dad is at the hospital. She was so concerned and asked what was wrong with my dad. Told her it was stroke and she said she would pray for me. :) Sweet of her. Nice gal!! Hope to see her again soon! K.. Enough of writing. Some pics to share - of me playing with Felix's hp camera! I seldom look good in pics n I love these few pics!

1st dinner cooked by JZ

Saturday (23 Feb 2008) - Cont'd JZ really cooked dinner for me. He cooked porridge. Then made his own spring onion to fry with eggs, cooked dou miao (vegetables) with mushrooms in oyster sauce (coz both vegetables and mushrooms are my fave) and made his own meat patty with bean sauce. Was a delicious dinner though a tad salty. He doesn't cook a lot so I'm kinda touched. He seldom cooks vegetables too.. Happy that it was a success. At least that eased my anger. Hehe. I simply watched TV while he cooked. :p Me, being the girl who can't cook. Haha. He watched soccer while I watched variety shows after that. Bathed and I slept at 11pm! Hahaha. Way cool!!! Sunday (24 Feb 2008) Woke up at 2.45pm!! Haha. Can u believe it?? The number of hours that I slept - 15 hrs plus!!! Super satisfying!!! Nothing beats that!! And the best part, for someone who always wakes up early (JZ), he slept til the same time as me! Haha. Though of coz, he slept much later than me. But that's not t...

Lunch with Meng, BBQ & Salsa

Friday (22 Feb 2008) Had such a boring morning at work that I ended up surfing the net and asking Mel if she had anything for me to do before I fall asleep at my desk. Meng came all the way from Bukit Panjang just to meet me for lunch!!! So sweet of him!! Was sooooo happy to see again that we hugged each other for a full minute at the MRT the moment we saw each other! Been almost 2 years since we last met! Had lunch at Phin's (my treat) then had coffee at Coffee Bean (his treat). Hehe. Colleagues walked past and saw us but I didn't care. Just comcentrated on my conversation with him. :p Went back to office at 2.30pm... Meng walked me to office lobby and we had to say goodbye. :( Wonder how long it will be before we meet up again. He's flying back to Dubai today. :( Will miss my bro.. Went back to office and had my staff event discussion and stuff. Then Raymond from CPB asked me to meet him at pantry for coffee to discuss some stuff. Spent another 25 mins there chatting. Hah...

My 1st Dinner!

Gonna make this a quick one.. I hope.. Work - Busy with staff event for 1st quarter. Spent the whole morning and afternoon thinking of plans and events and emailing for quotations. It's basically a one-man show and I've called for a meeting tomorrow to decide which event to hold. Other than that, the biggest idiot is still being himself, a TOTAL idiot who asks dealers the same questions after I have sent out the mails, or sending mails to the wrong people, or asking the dumbest questions ever, or not checking properly before questioning dealers and others. He is on Mel and my nerves that I don't talk to him at all. I will email to him and copy the whole world. Mel did the same today coz she's pissed off too. Haha. Both of us told Ed gor that we used to be happy coming to work. Now, we dread coming to work. Still helping with Shanghai on the balancing. It's becoming a daily affair.. Sighz... Family - Uncle scolded Aunt Mic again yesterday. I don't like that. It...

PS.. I Love You

Blogging in office again. Yes.. I'm that bored. Too bad office has blocked Blogger website else I will post it immediately instead of having to email to my personal account, copy and paste into Blogger to post it. Sighz.. A thought flashed across my mind today. So often, people say keep in touch or stay in contact. How many people really do that? I seriously wonder.. I know not many of my friends or ex-bfs will do that though they said to keep in touch. I am not surprised if my ex-bfs do not stay in touch. Who will like to continue a friendship with their former partners? I admit, I do especially if we broke up on friendly or mutual terms.. Coz my ex-bfs are the ones who know me best. But they think otherwise. Sigh.. Am I such a difficult person? Ever since Chinese New Year, I have given up trying to stay in contact with friends who do not wanna continue the friendship. I feel ridiculous.. Trying to arrange dinner, coffee, meet-up sessions or even sms-ing people who do not bother a...

Lydia Sum

I often wonder about life.. How fragile it seems. Nothing lasts forever.. Be it any forms of relationships or simply, just life itself. Do not be mistaken. Nothing is wrong with my relationship. This morning at 8.30am, Lydia Sum aka Fei Fei passed away due to liver cancer. Her persona on TV was a happy character with her ever-the-same style hair and red framed specs, she has become this familiar person whom almost all Chinese know. I remember watching her on TV.. The Hong Kong game shows / variety shows /charity shows she hosted and she was always laughing. Due to her obesity, she was unable to control her bladder very well. She would always laugh til a point where she would say that she is going to "lai liu" (Cantonese.. It means urine in her pants or urine uncontrollably). She may be fat but she was fat in a really cute way. She had high blood pressure and diabetes then. In September 2006, there was news reports saying that she has liver cancer. It was a sad moment, especia...

Feverish...

Home already. Really early today. Super gloomy mood plus I was slightly feverish in office. Not in the mood to talk at all. Think I spoke less than 20 sentences in office today. Everybody sensed that something was wrong with me. I don't even know what's wrong with myself. Not in the mood to talk since yesterday. Guess the person I talked to the most was to JZ. Ran some errands regarding Dad's bank account during lunch and I bought lunch back by myself. Headed to the CD shop to take a quick look before buying lunch. Bought fish soup noodles with milk. Something that I like to eat. Bought herbal tea on the way back and ate lunch by myself with my DS Lite and listening to the mp3 cd that JZ burned. :) Seldom eat lunch by myself but somehow, couldn't bring myself to talk. Listened to another disc that JZ burned after lunch and told Edmund gor and Mel that if they wanna ask me things, they can message me via our internal messaging system (something like MSN). Both were very ...

Eating..

Saturday (16 Feb 2008) Refused to wake up early since my mood still wasn't good from the previous night. Amazingly, I woke up on my own at 7+am.. Just like I was going to work. Faint. Went back to sleep and slept all the way til 2pm before I was willing to open my eyes and returned call to JZ. He wasn't happy that I slept til so late but I couldn't care less. Still wasn't in the mood. Showered and went to visit Dad at 3.30pm. Asked JZ a few times what time and where we were to meet but he did not answer. Kinda pissed then.. Called Kwang di and chatted for a while. JZ finally called me and said that he was waiting for bus. Asked him where we were meeting and he said he can take bus to stop at AMK, Toa Payoh or Novena. Told him to meet me at Novena 1st. Wasn't in a very good mood coz of Dad as well. He kept crying and complaining about everything. Simply got on my nerves much as I didn't want to. Sighz.. Replied Terrence's sms saying that I won't be going ...

Left behind..

Evans joined us (the girls) for lunch today coz the whole dept went for Treasury lunch. I wasn't included coz I'm only a small fry. Was the only person left behind in my whole row. Went to Terminal 3 and had Popeye's. So filling!!! Walked around T3 for a while before heading back to office. Reached at 2.15pm. Called Irene and chatted with her til about 2.45pm.. When they all came back. Wasn't exactly very happy coz (1) I was left behind and (2) I was supposed to go for JZ's company dinner tonite but was also not included as there was no seat for me. I even cancelled my own ex-dept dinner just to go for his company dinner and yet.. Anyway, managed to make arrangement with Bee to meet and with Irene and Cheryl as well. Worked til 7pm and didn't visit Dad as it would be too late to join them for dinner if I had gone to hospital. Met Irene at Bedok and went to City Hall together. Had dinner at a HK style cafe at Raffles City basement. Service wasn't exactly good...

Happy Valentine's Day!!!

Just reached home.. Making this a quick post.. I'm sooo sleepy.. Feeling on a high today after last nite. Went to office feeling sweet and nice. Tossed yusheng at 11.30am and had the chat session with our big boss, Nagi. Was so funny.. We had just sat down and he was saying that someone should get the ball rolling when my hp rang. K.. More like beeped coz it was on silent mode. Answered the call and it was from the florist telling me that the delivery person was outside. Had to raise my hand and tell Nagi that there was someone at the door and I had to go open it. Haha. Everybody guessed that it was flowers without me saying. :) From then on, it was even more of a high. Haha. Everything went well. No deals at all today. Nothing much to do.. Helped out Shanghai side again. Sighz... It's almost a year now and they are still needing my help. Faint.. Mel, Rachel and I left at 6pm. Mel's bf, Darryl, gave Rach and me a lift. Initially said that we would drop at Orchard together w...

JB!!!

Was still feeling down when I reached office today. Everything was set in a series of gloom. Much as the rest were excited about the lion dance coming to office, all I felt was loneliness and sadness. Called him before I slept last nite and this morning but the feeling was weird. Didn't talk to anybody much and didn't even bother to watch the lion dance perform when everyone else crowded to watch it. Simply sat at my desk listening to my music and doing my work. My big boss, Nagi, came round to shake hands with all of us and he said, "Maggie, u look very serious. So busy working.. Didn't watch the lion dance." Haha. Yeah... Had lunch with the normal group. The new cute intern, Glen, joined us. He made my day when he said that I don't look 25.. And that I looked like I just graduated from Poly. Haha. Yay!!! 1st time someone say I look so young. Hahaha. Chatted with him throughout lunch and got to know quite a bit about him. :) The afternoon was still as boring....

Skipping Meals

JZ is awake.. Jus called me. Had minor argument. All along, I've got some bad habits when it comes to eating. I don't eat dinner when I'm alone. I don't even buy back to eat most of the time. I can go without dinner or I'll just snack. I don't like proper meals. I like to snack. Weekends, I sleep til past noon.. Between 1pm to 3pm and I skip breakfast and at times, even lunch. I can survive with just 1 meal a day. That's me. To others, it seems like I don't know how to take care of myself. JZ said that.. So did Kwang di. Maybe I really don't. I don't live my life properly in this sense. I know that. But some things are hard to change. Bit back my tears that threatened to roll down my cheeks. Spent the nite packing my room after I finished the previous post til now. I didn't realise that it's already half past 11pm. I was so engrossed in my packing. I now know next time what not to say. I shall keep certain things to myself. I'm no lon...

I'm missed!!

Temple to pray early in the morning before I went to work. Ann picked me up and dropped me off at City Hall MRT Station. Took a train to work and reached Tampines at exactly 9am. Bought coffee at Old Chang Kee before going in to office. Mel said I seemed happy today. Hmmz.. Been in a good mood these 2 days. Not sure why also. Maybe coz I've got motivation at work? Haha. Nah... Maybe not seeing Gopi's face can really brighten my day! Hahaha. Evil me. I think it's more coz I had enough sleep during the CNY hols hence my mood is better. :) Work today was alright. Not too bad. :p Quite busy in the morning and early afternoon but dealers only did 4 deals and those were not handled by my dept.. So I was quite free!! Haha. Had time to work on my little surprise for JZ that I've been putting off after doing part of it. Worked on it as and when there was nothing to do and I've completed the whole thing!! YAY!!! Can either give him tomorrow when we go JB or on Thurs (if we ar...

Cute guy on attachment!

Reached office at 8am. JZ was supposed to send me to work today but he was down with cough and slight flu last nite. Poor boy was coughing on and off while sleeping. Made me worried and woke up a few times. Decided to let him sleep and go to office on my own instead. Thought I was early but someone else was earlier than me! The new guy on attachment form Poly approached me the minute I stepped out of the lift. Was listening to my music and couldn't hear him at all. Haha. Coincidentally, he is attached to my dept but under confo unit. On 1st glance, I thought he looked like a China boy but after a few glances, he looked kinda Korean. On further glances, he's cute!!!! Haha. But too young for me. Hehehehe. Crazy me! Told him not to come office so early coz everybody starts at 9am. He had to wait an hour for them to arrive. Poor thing.. Poor me too.. Worked real hard from 8am til lunch time. Lunched in and only had cup noodles for lunch. :( And it took me more than an hour to finis...

Thanx Xiu Zheng!

Saturday (09 Jan 2008) Wanted to have lunch at Siglap but the shop was not open. Had lunch at Katong instead. New shoes cut my feet. Had blisters. Sighz.. Went home to change. Headed to AMK with JZ to look for PS3 as his V Day gift. Walked the whole place coz we haven't had the chance to walk around there properly before. Had Cino Special at Ah Mei Cafe. The shop we wanted to buy from was not open. Looked for it in other shops. Went to a shop nearby and asked about price. Saw DS Lite new games. Bought all 3 discs! I'm gonna have new games to play! YAY!!! Bought CDs also. Spent $92.50 buying CDs!! Faint.. Went back to JZ's place coz he needed to change before going for dinner. He dropped me off at the hospital at 7pm and I visited Dad while he went to Orchard. Realised I left my stuff in his car and called to tell him I'll go Orchard to pick it up from him. Left hospital at slightly past 8pm and rushed to town as Bee was waiting there for me as well. Collected my stuff f...

Bored..

JZ came to Aunt Mic's place today (after 12 midnight now so should be yesterday). He got along well with everybody. :) Happy! Nobody gave me their thoughts though.. Hope he did well in front of my family. Wonder if I did well in front of his family though.. :*) Hope I did. He loved Bethany, my niece, and enjoyed disturbed Byron (my nephew). Haha. He even played mahjong with my cousins while I sat around. Haha. Glad that he can click with them in a way. :) Dunno what to write.. Writer's blog. Haven't had much to do these 2 days so nothing to write about. Gonna go watch my HK drama. Tata!

Chinese New Year 2008

Happy Chinese New Year! At JZ's house now. Had a very very boring CNY. Steamboat last nite at Aunt Mic's place. Worked from 8.30am to 7pm and had to lunch in. The rest left at about 3+pm with Ed gor leaving at 5+pm. No choice. I'm only a maker. Lots of things to do to prepare for a very hectic Monday. Took a cab to Aunt Mic's place for dinner as I was already late. Cab fare came up to $23+ coz I had to call cab as there was no cab at all after waiting for half an hour. Luckily I bumped into Michael Yap in the lift and we waited for a cab together. Else I'll be so damn bored. Ate dinner from 7.30pm to 10.30pm. I'm such a glutton. Best part was, I went to the toilet after I reached home and felt hungry after that. Faint! I'm a pig! Was at Aunt Mic's place the whole of today. Had such a bad headache that I slept right after lunch til 3+pm, woke up and slept for a while more. Then everybody else was gone so I had to look after gram. Headache was getting wors...

Makeover?

Had so much fun during lunch today!!! Went shopping after lunch with Mel, Agnes and Celine. It was more Mel, Agnes and I actually. Agnes wore a skirt today as our CCO was doing his Chinese New Year walk-around. But the top didn't match the skirt and the skirt didn't look very nice either. Decided to get her a white top to go with the skirt. Shopped at Isetan Tampines Mall and found a few tops for her to try. She liked 1 of them and bought it. But I thought the skirt didn't look nice so we walked around trying to look for a skirt that she would like and that will look more fashionable. Tried a few shops and couldn't find anything nice. Was almost 2pm and we decided to try the last shop before heading back to office. Finally!!! We found the skirt for her!! It was a skirt that I liked for some time now. That shop (Can't remember if it's Pepper Plus or Fashion Lab) had a lot of tops, skirts and dresses that I like!! Just that I know if I start buying from there, I w...

Aunt Mic

Super busy at work today. Didn't even have time to go to the washroom. Had to hold my bladder til I really couldn't take it anymore before I dashed in and rushed out again. Was that bad. Sighz.. Didn't visit Dad again.. Double sighz... Will definitely visit him tomorrow. :) Been giving little surprises to JZ here and there. Hehe. Makes me happy to see him happy. Bought a tub of Haagen Daaz for him on Friday. :p Everybody in office and Ann said that I have changed. I bought shoes that I never thought I will ever have a look at, let alone to buy them! Flats and pumps.. My goodness! Plus the kind that has ribbons, look girly and cute.. I really have changed! They say it's the power of love. I'm not sure but somehow, they seem to catch my attention yesterday so I decided to buy them. Hope I don't shock everyone too much. Hehe. JZ picked me up from office today. Ended work at 8+pm and I had to rush through the ending part coz my email refused to cooperate with me. We...

Shopping!

Saturday (02 Feb 2008) JZ picked me up from home at 8pm. 1st time I sat in a delivery van. Hehe. Quite interesting. Headed to Thomson Plaza to fix my specs before 9pm and by the time it was done, it was 8.45pm. Rushed to Clarke Quay Liang Court to buy TV. We made a purchase in less than 15 mins. Haha. Chose the Samsung 32" for him coz it looks nicer. Paid for it, put in the van and went to Liang Court's basement Meidi-Ya supermarket to buy Japanese snacks. We bought $90+ worth of snacks! My gosh!! The snacks aren't cheap to begin with and we really bought a lot! :p Enough to last me for a long time but only enough to last him for 5 days. Haha. Went back to his house to drop off the new TV and to bring his old TV to my place. Came back to my place, fix it up and went to Hougang to pack our dinner at 12am. Faint.. Went back to his sister's place to return the van and to his place to help him fix the new TV and to eat our dinner. Slept at 3am.. Super tired.. Sunday (03 Fe...

Dinners

Some time to post this blog coz he's gone to deliver cakes for his family. Waiting for him to come back then we can go out to buy tv and to make my specs. Yesterday was a super busy day. Had problems with my faily and month end futures processing. Was so bad that we had to spend the whole morning and afternoon trying to figure out and to resolve the issues. Then we had problems with the commodities file. Sighz... Monday will be another bad day coz it's time to send out the MTMs and there is still problem with the file. Hope all will be ok on Monday. Managed to rush everything and finish by 7.30pm to go for dinner with Christine mama, Agnes, Carissa mummy, Carol, Rachel and Winston. Had such an enjoyable time and laughed so much that I had tummy cramps. Haha. It was really fun and there were so much jokes and laughter going around. It was really a good way to de-stress. :p JZ picked me up at Century Square after that and I followed him to settle some errands. Felt so tired that ...
