Stuffy Office..
Starving but too tired to cook. Just came home not long ago and had my shower. Reached home at 11pm.. Super tiring day at work and had to stay back for almost 2 hrs giving Ailmer extra lessons with Kelv and Mel. Sighz... And I didn't have enough sleep.. :( But Spain's win was enough to keep me going. Hehe. :p
Feeling so tired now.. Dunno what to write.. Had a very long and busy day due to month end. Will it be as busy tomorrow? Wondering if Spain is still celebrating their win? My mind keeps wandering there.. Haha.
At least today I didn't make any mistakes at work. Phew.. Was so afraid of doing the wrong things that I checked my work. Hehe. Think the air in office is really bad.. So hot and stuffy.. Air con doesn't seem to work at all. Everybody was complaining about the stuffiness and the heat. We were all perspiring and felt like we were in a sauna. Ya.. It was that bad!!! Sighz... My skin is always itching in the office. The air is really terrible.. It's making my rash outbreak. Pissed... And my face is also itching.. Plus pimples.. ARGH!!!
Think my sentences don't link... Gonna stop here for now.. Too tired...

Live! - Spain vs Germany!
2.58am - Brilliant punch by Casillas to prevent the goal!!
3.08am - Torres' header hit the goal post!! Damn!!
3.16am - Fabregas' shot on target was saved..
3.18am - GOAL!!!!!! SPAIN!!!!!!!!! Goal by Fernando Torres!!! Jens Lehmann ran out wanting to stop Torres but was unable to catch the ball despite Germany defender, Lahm, trying to block Torres with his own body. Good job by Fernando Torres!!!!! YAY!!! Spain 1, Germany 0!
3.20am - Michael Ballack's face is bleeding.. Scary!
3.28am - Casillas and Ballack got a yellow card each but Casillas doesn't deserve to get the yellow card!! No reason!!! Referee is biased!
3.52am (2nd half) - Is my Spain playing it a bit rough? Sighz...
3.56am - Xavi's shot went wide.. :(
3.57am - Torres runs but Lehmann came out and caught the ball this time round..
4.04am - Germany has attacked 3 times in a row in the last 3 mins.. Damn.. Looking dangerous! Casillas made a very beautiful save once and the other 2 times, the shots went wide. Phew!!!
4.05am - Another run by Germany. Looking too dangerous. I'm worried..
4.06am - Cesc Fabregas is replaced by Xabi Alonso. Fabregas has done well in this Euro! Applause!!!! Well done Fabregas!!
4.07am - Spain is playing rough.. Don't like to see that.. Sighz..
4.09am - David Silva is replaced.. He was the one who started the rough scene earlier..
4.10am - Ramos' header is beautiful but topped over the net by Lehmann. Corner kick was blocked by Germany's defender...
4.11am - Andres Iniesta's shot was right into Lehmann.. What a waste.. Match is getting very exciting.. Keeping my fingers crossed very tightly at each shot.. Both by Spain & Germany...
4.13am - Free kick by Germany. Casillas jumped high to punch it far and away. Good job!! :)
4.14am - Casillas seems to be injured.. Oh no!!!! He's pressing on his tummy area.. Hope he's alright! Spain (and I) can't do without him!! :X
4.16am - Yellow card to Torres for knocking a Germany player's head while jumping to head the ball. Sighz...
4.18am - Torres 1 on 1 with Germany defender.. Pushed the ball a bit too hard and too fast.. Saved by Lehmann.
4.20am - My beloved striker for Spain, Fernando Torres, has come off the field for Daniel Guiza.. Torres has done a marvellous job for Spain in the whole Euro!! Applause!!!! Good goal by him earlier!! *Bows*
4.23am - Last 10 mins.. Praying real hard.. My heart's beating extra fast already.. Spain, pls keep it up!! Another 10 more mins and the victory is ours!
4.25am - My goodness!! What a close miss!!! Heartache!! Could have sealed the victory but Senna couldn't reach the ball!!! Daniel Guiza made a great cross to Carzola who didn't head it towards goal but to Senna instead. Senna couldn't reach it and I gave a tiny scream of "Ahhhhh".
4.27am - Germany's playing it rough now. 5 mins more to the end of the game.. I don't like rough games.. :( Free kick to Spain.. The problem is, Spain's players are too short.. Disadvantage as they can't head the balls as easily.. But still, I have faith in them. ^.^
4.30am - Seems like 2nd half is much busier than 1st half.. So much action going on.. Time is passing so fast! 1st time I'm doing LIVE blogging on a match and it's so exciting with all the action!!
4.32am - 90 mins is up.. 3 mins of injury time. Everyone's panicking.. So am I!! Getting ultra nervous.. Spain, keep it up!!! Germany's looking tired and dejected..
4.36am - The FINAL whistle!!! SPAIN WON!!!!!!!!!!!! OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!
Spain won!!! Spain won!!! Spain won!!! SPAIN SPAIN SPAIN!!!!!!! FINALLY!!!!! AT LONG LAST!!!! All the years of support for my beloved Spain!!!! They did not let me down today!!!! I've been waiting.. And waiting and waiting!!! THIS IS THE MOMENT!!!!!!!!!! I can't stop smiling!!!! My heart is smiling from deep within!!! I feel excitement and happiness!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Waiting for them to lift the cup now. I'm tired and sleepy but too excited and too happy! Down with all the people who looked down on my Spain. Haha. Luckily I didn't bet with Ailmer who kept insisting on a bet. I don't do bets on my beloved team coz it will cause them to lose. I can live without a free meal just so that my fave team can win! Hehe. :p Yay yay yay!!!!!
My free treat for drinks coming up in office later. Will gladly pay for it! As long as Spain wins, I'll do anything!!!! Oh yeah oh yeah!!!! Luis Aragones is a great great coach at the age of 69! His last match iwth Spain as coach.. I salute him!!!!! Casillas is leading his team to the stands now.. I see the smiles on all their faces and I feel touched. Looking at Casillas hugging the people, can he hug me too? Haha. He's lifting the cup!!! OH YAY!!!!! The cup is finally in their hands!!!! Spain!!! Casillas!!! Saw the look on Bastian Schweinsteiger's face as the cup was lifted.. I see the pain and dejected look on the faces and in the eyes of the faces of the Germany players. I can understand.. I've been wishing for this day for years.. I understand the sadness...
Casillas hugged the King of Spain tightly and Torres was cheered on loudly! Both of them deserve it, no doubt about that!!! I will always remember Euro 2008, where Spain became Champions after 44 years! Euro 2008 is the time and the year to remember.. 30 June 2008, my dream and Spain's dream came true!!!! Nothing matters more than this now. Thank u Spain, for finally fulfilling this dream of mine. Let's try to do it again next time!! :p But pls don't let me wait another 44 years. Hehe. 2 years later at World Cup, let's do it again!! ("o")
Time for bed.. 5am now.. 1 more hour before I wake up for work.. Will sleep after I finish the highlights.. Hehe. Nitez all!!!

Euro 2008 Finals - Spain vs Germany!!
Very tired!! Woke up at 12.15pm.. Slept at 3+am with swollen eyes. Damn! I need to grow up!! Sighz..
Anyway, went to Taka to shop for Ky's bday. Wanted to buy artie fartie things for her but didn't know what to buy. Was wandering between Creative Hands and Art Friends. Stomach started growling so headed for lunch 1st.
Lunched at Imperial Treasures (Teochew Cuisine) at 3pm. They were almost closing so we had to order fast. Ordered and ate the BEST mango pomelo (杨枝甘露) in Singapore there. Can never find a good one in Singapore. This is by far the best I've ever had in Singapore and it was really good!!! Finally!!! Found my fave dessert that tastes good! Love it!! Gonna buy for my family next weekend when I go over for my fave prawn noodle dinner on Sat. :p Way cool!!!!!!
Treated Felix to lunch as he drove me there. :) Good friends are like that. We don't ask for returns but yet, will take the initiative to treat each other well in different ways. He drove me, so I treat him. That's friendship. Friends don't take one another for granted. Those who do that, can jolly well not be in my classification as friends. That's what I always feel. I'm thankful that I can differentiate such people and still have many close friends around me. :D
Decided to buy Ky a cake mixer instead. Bought Uncle a bottle of wine. And NYDC mochamisu as bday cake. Dinner was delicious! Everybody liked the cake and the gifts. Yay!!!
Oh.. I went Gucci shop today. Couldn't withstand the temptation and I set foot in the shop. Immediately saw 2 bags that I like a lot!!! The one with the ribbon (
http://www.gucci.com/uk/uk-english/uk/classics/handbags/#0-544217-161720FCERG8420) is 1 set with my wallet that I'm using now. The other bag is nice too (
http://www.gucci.com/uk/uk-english/uk/fall-winter-08/handbags/#0-528972-193604FP1JG8552) and I can't give up on either 1. I want both!!!!!! Hehe. Was soooo tempted to just buy both on the spot that Felix had to pull and drag me out of the shop before I started doing any damage to my bank account. But I can't get the 2 bags out of my system!! Oh no!!!! Can't save pics of the bags.. So pls click on the link. Haha.
Met Irene, her hubby and baby Xavier at Orchard. See the cute chubby baby?? So cute!!!! Can't stand it! Ultra cute baby! So plump and naughty. :p Love him to bits!
Oh.. Got my watch already.. Seriously don't think I'll wear this watch anytime soon. Too expensive for me to wear. Shall keep it. Hehe. :p
Spain vs Germany in 3 hours time!!! Hoping and praying that my beloved Spain will win. I've been waiting for them to win for years! I hope this time they will be able to do it. My heart is already beating fast now and I can't wait!! If they don't win, I'm sure my mood will be very bad for this month end. Haha. Tomorrow's gonna be a busy day at work and the speed and quality of work will depend on tonite's game.
Folks, pls steer clear of me if my Spain doesn't win. I'll bite.. If they win, drinks on me tomorrow. Keep your fingers crossed!!! :p

Friday (27 June 2008)Rash on leg itched like mad. Think I'm too stressed. Gotta learn to relax and take things easy. Easier said than done.
Lunch with Evans and the rest of the gals at T3. Had a good chat with Evans, about quite a lot of stuff. :)
Rushed off work at 6.45pm. Reached Vivo at 8pm. Met up with the rest and went to DF. Saw Desmond and gang there. Ran between the 2 tables. Our table drank Chivas, Des's table drank Martell. I drank both. It's a wonder I didn't get drunk. Rave was drunk. Both tables left about the same time. Felix came to send me home. Wanted to go home on my own but he came anyway. Saw Gary & Michael while waiting for Felix. Didn't know that CPB folks were there too. Sometimes, Singapore is a small place. Haha. Thanx to Felix for sending me home! Fell asleep in the car. Way past my normal bedtime of 11pm. Haha. Was sooooo tired..
Oh, forgot to mention that I dedicated 3 songs for Yutaki to sing. He sang 2 of them coz the 3rd song he had sung earlier. He remembered my face but forgot my name! He called me Magdeline which I still acknowleged coz he sat on the stage, looking at me and chatted with me and thanked me. I was over the moon! Didn't matter what name he called me. Haha.
Slept at 5am...
Saturday (28 June 2008)Couldn't wake up at 11.45am when my alarm rang. Woke up at 12.15pm. Late for hair appointment which was supposed to be at 1pm. Reached only at 2pm. Too crowded then so I went to attend Zoey's dad's wake at Jurong first. Apparently the very moment I stepped out of the salon, Tom went in. We missed each other by a milli-second. Fate.. Loves to make fun of people I think. If I weren't late for my appointment, he would have seen me..
Had a small catch up session with Zoey. She's a strong person so I'm not tha worried about her. I'm sure she will be alright. :p
Ailmer disturbed me via sms today. The things he said.. Simply made me faint. Haha.
Rebonded hair again. Looks ok for now. Hope it really is ok.. I don't think I wanna go back again to re-do it. Tired..
BBQ at Celine's place. Wasn't really in the mood to go. Mood still ain't good now which explains the small paragraphs. No mood to write. BBQ was nice.. Caught up with Cheryl and had a good chat with Irene on some stuff. I like talking to Irene. I think we're the same kind of people.. Which is why we can click. Haha.
JZ picked me up from Kembangan, went back to his place to finish the last 15 mins of the DVD that can't be watched from all 3 players that I have at home. Stupid players! I can watch at his place but not my own. Finished the show, went to his office to get another serial and came home. He gave me chocs at his place and it was durian flavoured!!! Didn't know about it til I put the smaller piece in my mouth!!! Faint.. Forced him to eat the bigger piece. He's always bullying me.
He's gone for supper with his best friend, without me.. As always. I wrote an email to him.. But I didn't send it out. I don't have the courage to send it out. I've just finished crying which I feel stupid about but yet, I still did it. Needed to get it out of my system. Wonder when I'll ever send out the mail or will I even send out the mail at all. I doubt I ever will.. Call me a coward.. I just don't.. The only thing I did was to grumble to his best friend that JZ would rather have supper with him than to spend time with me when I hardly get to see him. That's all that I did. I'm stupid.. I know. I'm dumb.
Shall not think about this anymore.. Must thank Felix for driving me around today. Didn't mean to trouble him but.. Attending the wake was a last minute thing.. So sorry..
I shall stop dwelling about things and go shower and sleep...

Semi-Finals Euro 2008
Spain won!!!!! Yes, they did it!!! They've booked themselves a place in the finals of Euro 2008!!!! At long last.. The team I've been supporting for years are finally in the Finals of an International competition. And I realised, I can't bet.. Coz everytime I buy a team to win, they lose.. This year, I didn't buy them.. Simply support and see where they are right now!!! Haha. I'm cursed.. :< But I'm happy for my fave team!! 3-0 was the final score. I'm a happy and proud little girl right now despite the lack of sleep. Woohoo!!! Full of energy from their win! And it's Friday!!! Woohoo!!!!
Now.. Must pray hard and keep my fingers crossed real tight that my beloved team can win Euro 2008. Pray hard pray hard!!! Hope all goes well!!! Hehe. ;p

Spain vs Russia Tonite!
Had a really tough day at work.. Really had to keep my temper under control. Ailmer has been pretty off form these 2 days.. Not performing up to standard. Sighz.. And there were 3 deals that were problematic today. Just adding on to the list.. :(
Anyway, it's Spain vs Russia tonite. I'm sooooo gonna wake up to watch. Wanted to wear my Russian dolls earrings to work today when I suddenly remembered about tonite's match. Immediately put the earrings away and decided to wear another pair instead. Hehe. Must show support to my most beloved Spain! :p
Must thank Irene and her hubby for sending me home today! Glad that things are ok already! :)
Lunch with Felix and Carissa mummy at Old Airport Road. As usual, I had my favourite prawn noodles there. :D Bought cheesecake ice cream as well. Weather was sooooo hot!!!
K.. Shall go read up on some stuff.. Need to plan staff event again and I'm late for the 2nd quarter. Damn! And it's getting more and more busy at work due to monthend. Oh no...
Oh ya.. DF tomorrow.. But, I think I'll be too tired to enjoy coz I really wanna watch football tonite. Die... How to last thro the nite is gonna be a huge problem. More coffee! But coffee has no effect on me any longer. Maybe I'll buy more expressos. Haha.

The Watch
Home!
Haven't met him on weekdays for very long.. It's really been too long.. We're finally talking on the phone again & meeting up on weekdays and weekends. Pretty much back to normal which I'm happy about. Yes, I'm becoming soooo easily satisfied as Carissa mummy says. Haha. Wonder why I'm like that.. Hmmz... Anyway, had dinner at Bedok Botak Jones today. Food was not bad. Then came home after that. I reached home same time as yesterday! Haha.
Work was alright.. Spent 3 hours in the afternoon after lunch doing admin stuff for the department. Did til I was agitated. Think I need to change my job title to "Admin Assistant" soon. Duhz.. Sighz.. No choice.. I'm the rubbish woman in the department, doing everything. Haha.
Had a good chat with Irene during lunch today. Lent her my listening ear to share her problems with and to give her some advice. Not that I'm really good at it but did my best to help. Hope things go well with her tonite. :)
Found out who gave the watch to me after much forcing from me. Even found out what watch it is. I'm in awe over the brand and I still don't know why this person wanted to buy a watch for me. I'm not the only one who got it. My sis received it too. It's definitely not from my bf, in case any of you are wondering. Haha. Seriously, I feel bad taking this gift.. It's way toooo expensive.. A watch that costs a few thousand dollars... Simply too expensive to accept. I haven't seen it yet and haven't found out the actual cost but I still think it's too expensive.. Over the years, this person has really spent a lot of money on me and my family. I know he means well and he dotes on us. I really really appreciate him and I'm eternally grateful to him.
Oh ya.. Told my office lunch gals that if Spain were to reach Finals and win Euro 2008, I will buy tea break for them. Hehehe. Yes, I know.. I'm crazy but Spain is and always will be the team I support! I will root for them all the way!!! :p

Surprises?
Reached office to find a tissue rose on my chair and a note on my table. Same on Mel's table. Read it and it was Ailmer's apology letter. Felt his sincerity and I was ok. Never expected him to come in to office with Macs Big Breakfast for Mel & I. Wow!! So unexpected and touched. Forgave him. Haha.
Work was ok. Pretty boring actually coz I didn't have anything to do. Just helped to clear space in our shared drive and that was it. Lunch with Mel, Irene & Evans at Downtown East. Kinda nice and funny.
The other unexpected thing that happened was JZ calling me in office. Something that he hadn't done for very long. :) Kinda surprising but nice. Hehe.
MZ callled me a couple of times.. Kept asking me about the watches that I have - How many watch I have and the surface colour of my watches. Kept asking him why he's asking but he refused to say. Somebody's getting me a watch but he didn't wanna tell me who. I'm still guessing who has told him to buy me a watch. Seriously no idea coz it's not my bday or any special day... Then why buy me a watch? Who is asking him to help to buy me a watch?? ARGH!! Refuse to think anymore.
Pouring so heavily when I was about to go off from office at 6.50pm that I stayed til 8.50pm and shared cab with Ailmer to go home. Starving now.. Shall go dig for food. :p

Iker Casillas!
Woke up at 2.30am just to watch Spain vs Italy! Everybody I knew looked down on Spain.. Saying that they will lose for sure. My beloved Spain did not let me down. They proved the world wrong! They did it! They beat Italy and the hero was my beloved idol cum keeper, Iker Casillas!!! Pics of my hero below! Handsome right??? Hehe. Drool!!!
The mistake was to substitute Fernando Torres for David Guila. Huge mistake! His penalty shot was saved and created pressure for Casillas to save the next penalty shot. Seeing him walk on the field and standing in front of the goal, he was a picture of calm. So collected unlike Buffon who looked nervous during the shootout.
Now, I can only hope and pray that my beloved Spain will make it to semis then to finals. I don't mind waking up just to watch them. Willing to sacrifice my sleep just to watch Spain anytime. :p Eva Gonzalez is 1 lucky woman to have Casillas. :)
Was kinda tired at work but still alright. Finally lost my temper with Ailmer, the new guy. He said some pretty rude things again today and I just lost it. Told him to mind his own business and if he believed I'll use the F word on him and I think he got a shock. Kept asking me if I was really angry with him. Told him I didn't wanna talk to him and to go away. He was scared.. He knew I meant it this time round.
After work while waiting for Irene to finish, he kept wanting to talk to me. Told him straight that he has been very rude thro'out and I didn't like it. Told him not to apologise if he didn't mean it and if he's not gonna change. Told him what I thought and felt and asked him to start thinking before he speaks.. I was a bit harsh but it's for his own good. He needs to learn now than later.
Ate beehoon with lotsa ingredients for dinner. Irene's mum cooked and she brought to work for lunch today, forgetting that we were having farewell lunch with Celine today. She didn't know what to do with the beehoon so I said I'll buy from her for dinner. She said don't need to pay. Was delicious!! With so much ingredients, I really think I should pay her. Will insist on it tomorrow. :p
Just finished setting up my fridge. Hope it works. :) Wiring is a bit ugly but as long as the fridge works, I think I can live with it. Haha.
Oh ya, I'm gonna go re-do my rebonding on Sat for free. Yay!! Hope it works this time..
K.. Shall go watch my show and sleep hopefully by 11.30pm. ^.^ Nitez!

Rebonding bad... :(
Saturday (21 June 2008)Reached home at 2am this morning, logged on, wanted to blog but my Explorer was giving problems. Chatted with Bee on msn for a bit and headed to sleep.
How my day went:
10.50am - Woken up by my sis coz she sms-ed me sooooo many times. ARGH!!
12pm - Showered, flagged a cab and went for hair appointment.
1pm - Sat at salon for hair trimming. rebonding, hair colour + highlight then further trimming. Not happy with the rebonding coz the insides of my front part is still wavy. Sighz.. Like the colour + highlight but not the rebonding. Very upset with it..
8pm - Yes, I was at the salon for 7 hours.
9pm - Suntec.. Wanted to fix my shoes coz the ribbon came off but the shop was already closed by the time I reached. Sighz... Was hungry.. Wanted to satisfy my craving by buying Old Chang Kee curry puff but I couldn't find the shop! Sighz.. Settled for Polar chicken pie for dinner (my 1st meal since Friday lunch) and my beloved Starbucks Caramel Macchiato. :p
10pm - JZ finally met me. Didn't know where to go.. Wanted to watch movie at Suntec initially but the show times were odd. Decided to go his place and get my game discs 1st before deciding where to watch movie.
10.30pm - His place. Surfed net and his sis came back. Brought back prawn noodles and he heated up for me to eat coz I didn't have dinner. Was a very nice gesture and I felt touched. Sometimes, he does treat me nice though not all the time.
11.30pm - Flew to AMK Hub for movie "The Happening" at 11.50pm. Haha. Show was alright.. Not that fantastic. We both felt that M. Shyamalan's best show is still Sixth Sense. The rest.. Nah..
2pm - Home, chatted with Bee & slept at 3am.
Sunday (22 June 2008)Woke up at 12+pm. Earlier than expected. Damn! I'm not getting enough sleep! :p Hehehe.
Saw Cheryl's sms that she's having migraine with fever and couldn't make it for salsa. I didn't wanna go also. Losing the mood for salsa classes. Sighz... Dunno what to do now. Shall email the rest and see what they say. Hope I don't get 'killed' for this. Hehe.
Went for movie with Felix. Watched "You Don't Mess With Zohan". Crappy show but kept laughing. Was really kinda funny. Treated him to Din Tai Fung which was what I owed him for helping me clean my kitchen previously. Still not done yet but I'm too lazy to continue these days. No mood for anything. I don't mind meeting up with friends, chatting, coffee or just staying in at home these days. But don't feel like doing much. :p
Felix helped to bring the bar fridge from my cousin's place upstairs to my house. It's in my room now but we're still thinking of sorting out the switch and plug issues. Need to buy the extension switch and hooks and I'll have a fridge in my room!
Folks, can come my place and nua in my room more easily now. :D Hehehe.

Hair Appointment Tomorrow!
Home!! Soooo tired.. Woke up to watch football in the middle of the nite and I'm sooo sleepy despite 2 cups of coffee. Sighz. 1 nite of football has made me so drained. My goodness, I'm really getting old. Haha.
Another boring Fri by myself again. Somehow, I think I'm getting used to it. I think, I'm gonna suggest getting a dog again since I'm home almost every day now. I need company. Have always wanted a dog anyway and everybody said that I'm hardly home and hardly have time for a dog. Now, I'm soooo free that I think I have all the time in the world for a dog. Will consider this option once again. ^.^
Managed to get a lift from Irene and her hubby to the usual bus stop where I change bus. Bus came almost immediately. Phew! Had free entertainment when I boarded the bus as the auntie and uncle next to me were talking. At first I thought they knew each other but after a while, I found out that they do not know each other. This guy was supposed to get off somewhere but I think he doesn't know where to alight so the auntie was telling him. Then, 2 bus stops before he was supposed to alight, I overheard him asking the auntie if she wanted his number. The auntie said no and he asked again. Again, she said no. Haha.
Then came the funniest part. He was to alight.. He walked to the door, stood there for 5 secs due to traffic light and he walked back towards the auntie and asked her again if she wanted his number! Hahaha. Got rejected once more and he alighted unwillingly and unhappily. Oooppsss.. Haha. Was such a funny incident. :p
Just booked appointment with my hair stylist to trim, rebond and colour my hair. Too tiring for me to wake up half an hour early just to blow dry my hair and straighten it on my own before going to work. Hehe. I'm just toooo lazy. But this new ceramic straightener that my cousins bought for me as bday pressie is totally fantastic!!! It works wonders and makes my hair ultra straight and doesn't even look dry or frizzy after that. Love it to bits!!! :) But it still doesn't change the fact that I'm lazy. Haha.
Not gonna change my hairstyle much I guess. Just gonna trim shorter. Colour wise, will get my hairstylist to choose as per usual. Hope I look good after that. My mood is better and I feel happier when I know I look good. :D Call me vain.. But it's true. It really brightens a person's mood when u dress up and doll up at times. Hehe. ("o")

Lost but Found! - My Wallet!
Had such a huge scare in office today that I was really worried. I bought lunch back to office for the rest as well and stopped at Macs for Green Tea McFlurry to satisfy the craving that I had since I woke up this morning. Weather was soooooo hot that I felt so irritated and that I could melt anytime. Walked extremely fast back to the office.. Only to discover that my wallet was not with me!!!!!!!
The moment I put down the things that I was carrying, I knew my wallet wasn't there coz I didn't recall holding it in my hands throughout the whole journey. It wasn't like the previous time where I knew I was holding it and it would definitely be in the office. This time, I knew it was different. Ran all the way back to Macs to search for it, hoping and praying that it won't be taken by anyone. I can't afford to lose my wallet, esp not my IC again which I have lost once and had it stolen a 2nd time. My IC was critical!!
Thank goodness I left it at a very high and visible place! The Macs auntie who was very friendly when we were buying kept it for me and passed to her manager. They returned me my wallet fully intact and the manager was really young and quite pretty too!!! While walking back to office, I was thinking that my guardian angel really has a very tough job looking after me and protecting me! I can be soooo forgetful at times! My goodness!!! Really thanking my lucky stars that I managed to get it back.
Office is still in a very hot kind of condition. The aircon really sucks! Sooooo hot!!! And we did packing for 3 hours after lunch!!! Was crazy!!! But finally, we have the cupboard to put our stuff again and have our drawers empty once again. Perspired soooo much that I felt like so disgusted..
Checked with Christine mama if her hubby was sending her home and he was! Took a free ride to Rachel's place again and was intending to either take bus or cab home coz I felt stinko and hot. Ended up having dinner with Rachel at her house downstairs. Ate tom yam noodles (not bad), chicken wing (good) and Coke zero. Had a nice good chat with Rach and took a cab home.
Cabby went a very long way that didn't seem right. $8 as cab fare but I guess it was ok coz his aircon was real powerful and it happened that the radio was playing pretty nice songs, I didn't complain. Finally home now.. Showered and feeling so much better. :)
Shall go watch my TV show then off to dreamland for me. :p Nitez~!

Seletar Air Base
Gonna make this quick. Basically my eyes can't stay open for long beyond the timing of 11pm and I start yawning non stop at 10.30pm. The latest I lasted was 11.30pm I think. Been sleeping at 11+pm since last week and it's 11.11pm now. Shucks!! Must type faster than normal now.
Checked out the DBS opening. It's exactly what I'm doing. Still considering if I wanna go for the interview. But like I said before, local bank... I still prefer foreign banks. Should I test my market value by going for interview? Will decide again....
Met Zubair for dinner tonite. Haven't seen him for.. I think a year... He picked me up from work and we went to Parkway Parade for dinner at the Indonesian restaurant there. Walked around a bit as he wanted to get a leather pencil case. Found the shop and they sell earrings too. He bought me 2 pairs of earrings. $3 per pair. Hahaha.
Drove to Seletar Airbase where his school is. Yes, he's training to be a pilot and we made a pact that he will fly me as passenger on his plane 1 day. Hehe. 1st time I've ever been to Seletar air base. Looks kinda deserted with no street lamps and narrow roads but the view was breath-taking! It was really nice!!! I saw planes in the hangar, the full runway and he described all the nitty gritty things they do there which was way cool!!! Especially after I have watched the HK drama about flying and pilots, I've been sooooo intrigued by it and he reminds me sooooo much of the show!!! :) Very cool experience that I had!!!
Then we drove further up to Yishun Dam where we saw some people fishing. Stopped for him to have his ciggie break and came home. Never been to these 2 places before but somehow in my impression, I think I've been to Yishun dam before. Can't really remember anyway. :p But I enjoyed myself tonite.
It's great to meet up with old friends once in a while.. :D

Diarrhoea Stopped!!!
Super busy day today. Only 4 of us were in office as Mel and Irene were both on medical leave for 2 days. Had loads of new deals to clear. Managed to finish clearing all but 1 due to lack of term sheet. Left office at 8+pm and took a lift from Christine mama. Dropped at Rachel's place and took a cab home from there.
Glad I didn't make any mistakes at work today. With Mel not around, Kelvin was checker and knowing how strict he is, it's a good thing I managed to do everything correctly. Phew!!! Stressful!!! But he's much nicer these days. :) Must give him credit for that. :p
Sooo tired. Diarrhoea has finally stopped. Didn't go toilet to output at all today. Thank goodness!!! At long last! Came home, heated up my macaroni which Aunt Mic cooked for me on Sat but had no chance to eat. Still taste good! :p Eating and typing now as I wanna do everything fast and sleep early. Still need to do my laundry later. Sighz..
Headhunter called me today. Told me there was an opening in DBS for Treasury Ops. Sounds kinda like what I am doing now. I rejected the offer to go for an interview coz I still prefer foreign banks. But have told Ann to help me check if the job description tomorrow when she's in the office. If it's attractive enough, I might change my mind and try for it.
Had a good chat with Carissa mummy, Christine mama and Rachel during lunch about bf issues. They gave me their opinion and I told them how I felt. Came to a conclusion but shall not disclose it coz it's rather personal. But somehow, I seem to see light and something has dawned upon me. Will see how things go from here..
K.. I'm hot, tired and still trying to eat my dinner. Shall concentrate on my food. :D~~

Will the sweetness last?
Home! Stuck in toilet once again. 4th time in toilet for the day. Getting lesser. I think I'm on the road to recovery. Pls let me recover faster!! So many cravings that I have and so many different kinds of food that I wanna eat! Hehehe. Everybody in office said I have lost weight!!! Oh no!! Or should it be oh yes!! Hahaha. I dunno!!!
Anyway, today was really crazy. Dealers were on fire. Did soooooo many deals that I simply sat there and kept checking deals after deals after deals. Lunched in and had my phone interview with the headhunter. Finally! Haha. It has ben postponed 3 times already. Finally got it out of the way. The guy seems pretty nice. Let's wait and see what he can come up with for me.
Hectic day but I'm not complaining. I'd rather be busy than bored. Just that tummy grumbling and churning at times when I'm busy doesn't seem the best thing to happen. :p But was alright and I managed to finish all my stuff. Gopi was scolded quite a few times today. I couldn't be bothered. Too busy with my own stuff to care. Haha.
Amazingly he came to pick me up from work (coz he wanted to pass me DVDs) but had to wait for him for more than half an hour. Irene accompanied me for about 20-30 mins before she took the bus home. Forgot to mention that I caused him to scratch his car on Sat. Yupz.. I felt so bad coz it was my fault. Sighz.. Surprisingly he didn't lose his temper (knowing how bad tempered he is) as it is his new car after all. He seemed ok with it. Phew...
Bought sweets for him (on his request) and didn't know what kind he wanted so I bought quite a lot. Glad he liked them and he even had fun picking the sweets. Bought durian puffs and durian roll for him too. He's still coughing and I know it's not good for him but it's like a belated bday cake for him so...
He laughed today.. Quite a lot. It made me laugh too, especially when he was picking the sweets. He's treating me nicer recently. I hope it lasts.. Keeping my fingers crossed. Hopefully this time round, the sweetness can last longer... Oh, did I mention that today he wore the Polo Tee that I bought for his bday? Hehe. It fits just nice, just a tad too long. :p

Loving my family~
Stuck in toilet again. Yupz, I'm still at it.. Haha. But it's getting better. I think it is.. Err.. Haha.
Slept a lot again today. It really feels good to be able to sleep so much. A true and valid reason for sleeping. :p Ailmer, the new boy in office, was kinda concerned about me. He's suffering at work without me and he's on leave for the next 3 days to study for exams. He's afraid that he will have to go back to work if I'm still on medical leave. Haha. Don't worry.. I'll crawl back to office tomorrow.
Aunt Marg bought me lunch today and Aunt Mic got Ah Na (her maid) to cook me porridge with fish, chicken and my fave veg, kai lan! She also boiled my fave soup and brought all over for me! Sooooo touched!!!! All my fave food in my face!!! All sooooo yummy too!!! DROOL!!!! Ah Na was very very very sweet!! She spent 15 mins rubbing my tummy for me, making me feel soooo good. When Gram was still around and I had diarrhoea, Gram would rub for me. Now, Ah Na's the one rubbing for me. :) Touched!!!
My whole family has been really concerned about me this time round. I know what they are thinking. I'm all alone at home with Daddy gone now.. No one to look after me so they have to care for me and look out for me. It's sad but I'm touched and I definitely appreciate it a lot!!! How not to?? With a family like that, I feel strong enough to live without a man at times. Yupz, family is definitely a pillar of strength for me.. Especially now. I've learnt to appreciate them so much more.
It's 9.10pm now.. I've taken my dinner and my medicine. Left with only 1 more round of medicine to take and I would have finished everything but diarrhoea doesn't seem to stop. Aunt Marg will be bringing charcoal pills for me tomorrow instead. More effective. My tummy has got little red spots on them due to the ointment used to rub my tummy. :( Itchy!!! But will have to bear with it coz it does soothe my tummy. And I've really lost weight!!! Haha. Nobody can say I'm fat again coz it's all gone. Hehehe.
Thinking if I should start watching my Sex and The City DVD til 10pm before hitting the sack. Hmmz.. Lemme consider 1st. Meanwhile, I've finished blogging and I'm stuck in the toilet. Hahaha.

Diarrhoea Queen!
Felt better today.. Slept sooooo soundly and soooo much yesterday and it felt soooo good. Haven't slept so much in a very long time now. Why do I have to wake up? Just lemme sleep forever..
Aunt Mic made my fave beef porridge and brought it over for me in the morning. Even made macaroni for me for dinner. So touched!! She said something which made me sad.. Though I know it's the truth.. She said that I'm a young girl, ok looking, has a career and a bright future.. Why am I still hanging on a guy who doesn't show his love, care and concern for me anymore? When the truth and reality hits u, it hurts.. It really does. I have been asking myself that same question everyday and yet, I can't find the answer.
When he told me he will be meeting me for dinner tonite, I agreed. Waited for him for almost an hour downstairs. The normal me would have lost my temper and my cool, but I didn't. I thought of scolding him when I saw him, but I didn't. I merely reprimanded him for not calling and sms-ing me for so long.. That if I don't do it, he won't do so. Said that he no longer cares about me. He said he's still sick.. Can't even care for himself, let alone care for me. Sighz... Somehow, all my resolutions dissolved when I saw him. A relationship that started 7 years later.. I can't let go.. Not now.. I still can't.. Somehow, there's something there that I still can't let go of right now.
Gave him his bday present (the box of the present). And noticed that his car had new cushions (the picture of a cute toy). Given to him by a girl for his bday. And many other girls gave him presents too. He said he received a shirt as present from another girl. I felt jealous and redundant when I heard it. Felt like taking back my present. It didn't matter to him anyway.
Ate at Geylang coz I had craving for soya beancurd. Not sure if it was the right move coz now, I keep running to the toilet. ARGH!!! Headed to Bedok NTUC to buy groceries before heading home. Home now.. Received a Coach bag from his sis and bro-in-law who went holiday in US. Quite a cute and nice bag. I can use it on Fridays and weekends esp if I go clubbing. Hehe. But.. I've got my Chanel bag for clubbing. Hmmz.. This is bigger though.. Can put more stuff. Hahaha.
K.. Still stuck in toilet. 3 times since I came home. Typing 1 post is taking sooo long. Better stop here. I still dunno what to do with my relationship anyway.. Leave it as it is..
Oh ya, forgot to mention.. I managed to squeeze into a pair of shorts I bought in Jan this year but never wore coz they were too tight. Today, I managed to wear them. I've lost weight...

Diarrhoea Again!
Woke up in the middle of the nite to have diarrhoea again. Yes, it's back.. How sucky! It was really really really bad. Especially with the cramps, it was totally horrible. Woke up a number of times due to the pain and to run to the toilet. Was sooooo tired and didn't wanna go work but had no choice coz dealer sent me an email last nite without copying anyone else in my dept. She's on leave today and the settlement is valued today. Sighz.. Had to drag my ass in to work just to forward out the mail.
Took medicine but still wasn't good. Couldn't take it by 11.45am and rushed a cab back home to see doc. Yes, I did let him know. All he said was "Pls go home and rest if you're sick". Definitely very different from when we just started and it made me sad. Very very disappointed. How long more can I take such disappointments? Getting tired.. He doesn't sms or call me when he's busy, I understand. This week, he ain't busy at all and yet, he still doesn't sms or call me unless I do so. It will only be a matter of time that u guys will read that I'm single once again and I won't be shocked.
Managed to reach the clinic as doc was about to leave for the morning. Lucky!!! The minute I pushed the door open, conversation as follows:
Doc: Maggie!
Me: Ya.. Me again!
Nurse: Maggie Chan!
Doc: Come, come to the room!
Nurse: Wait wait!! I haven't take the medical record!
Me: Err... What do I do?
Doc: Just come!
Hahaha. Ya... They are very nice and funny people. Told doc my problem again and he gave me a brand new set of medicine. He questioned me what I ate last nite, if I drank milk or coffee. Hehe. He knows me well!! Can't live without my coffee and he knows it! :p Then ask if the cramps were due to my period.. I said no.. He said.. Oh ya, u should be in the midst of your period cycle now. See, he knows me!!! Hahaha.
Then,
Doc: I know! It's Friday the 13th that's why!!
Me: Err.. Today is my bf's bday...
Doc: Oh!! It's still Friday the 13th! Haha. Celebrating with him?
Me: No. He's attending a wedding.
Doc: Oh!!!! Definitely not his own wedding! Haha. How's the boy?
Me: Huh? What boy?
Doc: The new boy in ur office..
Me: Oh!!! He.. Suffering!
Doc: Good! U made him suffer?
Me: No lahz.. I'm the only one who doesn't make him suffer. Haha. The rest did.
Doc: Ooohh.. So u're the good person??
Me: Yeah! Hahahaha.
Really, the conversations with my doc brightened my day and made me forget my pain temporarily. Haha. He left for the morning while I was still waiting for my medication. But before he left, he told the nurse to let me eat my medicine on the spot! Hehe. Then he said bye and left.. I was a good girl.. I ate on the spot.
The new medicine is really strong!! It knocked me out from 1pm to 6pm!! But the moment I woke up, I went to toilet again. 4 or 5 times til now. Ooppss.. Just took my medicine and had a bit of porridge. Zzz monster attacking again.. :( Told Aunt Mic that I had craving for the beef porridge that Gram used to cook and she's gonna cook for me and bring over for me for lunch tomorrow!!! Sweet!!!!
Although he didn't care about me, lots of other people did! Thanks to Matt, Felix (for even scolding me to not call him to send me to the doc's and for wanting to buy me food for lunch), Irene (for listening to me complain, grumble and for caring), Bee (for something she said that made me laugh), Ky (who's also sick yet still sms-ed me to see how I was and for letting her mummy know I wanna eat beef porridge), my 2 aunts for cooking for me and looking after me, my sis & bro in law for cheering me up coz they know I was disappointed in him and for cooking for me, Jean (for sms-ing me when I was down and out plus when I was sick), Shuang (for calling me immediately to chat with me when she found out I was still sick). To anyone else whom I may have left out, thanx if u care!!! :)
To my dearest Shuang, we'll definitely meet when I've recovered. Hehehe. Can't wait to see u and chat with u!! Aiyah.. Maybe we both need each other by the time I recover. Hehehe. :p
K.. I'm not gonna fight the zzz monster any longer.. Gonna give in and surrender.. Nitez @ 8.45pm!! Hahaha.

Osteopath
Home!! Sooo tired... Just took my medication.. It's half stuck in my throat and my chest.. I hate this feeling!! ARGH!!! Making me feel so awful now...
Wanted to buy groceries during lunch time to bring home but there were too many things that I wanted to buy.. Too heavy to carry. Will buy on either Saturday or buy on different days to bring home separately.
Supposed to meet him on Sat.. Not sure how I feel.. Somehow, I have this weird feeling that we will be very quiet.. :( Tomorrow's his bday. Not celebrating with him coz he's gotta attend a friend's wedding at nite and he wanna rest at home in the afternoon. What can I say? Sighz...
Anyway, went to see the osteopath after work. It was very painful!!!!!!! I didn't know he would be poking needles into my leg!!! My goodness!! The moment he poked the needles into my leg, I wanted to scream and shout!! My whole leg just felt pain, pain and more pain!!! It was crazy!! But at least now it feels ok.. Will monitor the next few days if the swell goes down.
The medicine is still stuck in between. ARGH!!! Shall end here and try to get my medicine down. Oh ya.. Tomorrow's gonna be a quiet Friday where I'll come home after work. Ain't it amazing? Sighz.. Sad and lonely Fri...

Lucky Sis...
Refused to wake up this morning. Medication was making me sooo drowsy. All I wanted to do was sleep my day away but reality is always cruel. No longer on medical leave and had to drag my ass out of bed, half wishing I was still unwell so I could take another day of medical leave. Showered and went to work.
After breakfast, I really didn't feel too good. Nauseous feeling hit again but couldn't get it out of my system. Had pulse lunch with CCO and I was sitting the 2nd seat from him!! Was almost dozing off as he was talking. I can't help it!! I took medicine in the morning!! My eyes were literally unable to open and everybody saw it!! Shucks!! So embarrassing!!
Did 3 deals after lunch today and was I glad to have something to do!! Else, I'd really have fallen asleep. Haha. Agreed to meet sis after work to go to the osteopath together for the swollen bruise on my leg. Reached her place at 7.45pm and she called me at 8pm to say the osteopath wasn't in!!! MZ was really sweeeeeet to cook dried scallop porridge for me! It's his off day today and he had to cook for me. Oooooopppssss... Have always known that my bro-in-law is a nice guy. My sis is such a lucky woman to have found such a nice man.. Unlike me..
MZ took cab home with me before going home himself. We ran across the road more than 3 times just to find a cab!! Hahaha. Then sis called to say I left my whole bag of medicine at her place!!!! Faint!!!! My antibiotics and all my medicine!!! My goodness!!! I can only hope that I can survive without my medicine tomorrow. Sighz.. I'm such a forgetful girl...

Vomit + Diarrhoea
Sick again.. I was counting on my bed today coz I haven't been able to sleep well despite taking the medication. :( Realised that every 3 years since 1990, I fall sick many times in a year. This is really terrible!! And especially if I have put on weight. :_(
Woke up feeling weird. Lotsa wind in me plus stomach & gastric were churning like crazy. Being the stubborn me, I tried to dress up for work and even managed to reach Tampines. Til I reached office. Couldn't decipher if it was tummy ache or gastric pain, I decided to make noodles to eat coz it was soupy and would be better. Ate and felt ok.. Til I finished eating.
Rushed to the ladies immediately. Had diarrhoea. Thought once everything was out of my system, I would be ok. I was wrong yet again. Started feeling nauseous and dashed to the ladies to puke but nothing came out. Felt awful and decided to call my doc's clinic. Settled some outstanding stuff at work and left for the day to see doc.
The nurse even know me!! The minute I called and say my name, she said, "Oh!! Maggie Chan ahz!!" When I saw the doc, he was like "Maggie! U..." and I said, "Ya, me again!! R u sick of me yet??" And his reply was "R u sick of us yet?" Haha.
Today was real bad coz I puked a lot and had to keep going toilet due to diarrhoea as well. Sighz.. Was really really terrible. What saddened me more was that he cared more about me when we were just friends then now.. Maybe, it's really time to re-consider...
Supposed to meet Zubair for lunch & XZ for dinner. Due to the illness, I had to cancel both. XZ was very sweet and nice to drop by my place to see how I was doing. Asked Aunt Marg to make porridge for me for dinner and it all came out after I ate.. Sighz.. Vomitted right after I had opened the door for XZ. Hahaha. So embarrassing... But thanx to him for coming to visit me!!! Plus the fact that it was pouring sooo heavily when he left. Felt bad...
Til now, tummy is still churning and I'm hungry yet don't dare to eat in case it comes out again. Sighz.. Think if I'm not well tonite or tomorrow morning, I'll see doc again. :((((

UTI Again!!!!! :(
1 month after I had UTI, I got it again. This sucks! Big time! Well, of coz seeing my very handsome doc again is nice, but.. I don't wanna get it again.. It was so funny...
Doc: Hi Maggie! What happened to u?
Me: Hey!! Me again!!! Same thing.. I saw blood in my urine.. :(
Doc: Again? How come?? Pain? Discomfort?
Me: No pain, no urge.. Dunno what happened!!
Doc: R u having fever?
Me: No.. I don't think so..
Doc: Come, I check.. Tummy ok? Painful? I press and see ok?
Me: Ok.. No pain lehz...
Doc: K.. Don't worry.. We do the same test.. U wait outside for a while ok?
Me: Orhh....
Took my urine sample, waited for my turn again. Got a shock.. An elderly man of about 50+ years old came out. Then he kept knocking on the doc's door again. Doc didn't give him permission to enter. Suddenly the nurse opened the door and called my name so I walked towards the doc's room. The elderly man was still there. He was talking real loudly about something but I couldn't catch.. Til I stood next to him. Heard him telling doc about making him a happy healthy old man again. Kinda scary coz he seemed a bit violent and I was trying to squeeze past him into the room. Caught sight of my doc who was still smiling at him and doc was beckoning me to go in. Managed to squeeze past...
And here's the fun part of the conversation..
Doc (looking at my test results): Hmmz.. Seems like u're still in the early stages of UTI again. See, the strip turned colour..
Me: Oh no... Why again??
Doc: R u sexually active?
Me: No....
Doc: Ur period ended? Have u been drinking a lot of water?
Me: Ended about a week ago.. I drink 2 litres of water a day!!
Doc: That's good! Drink more water.. Early stages... So will help.
Me: Orhh... I think... It might be coz I have been controlling my bladder again for the whole of last week..
Doc: Why????
Me: Coz.. I've been busy teaching the new boy so couldn't excuse myself to go to the ladies..
Doc: New boy?? I thought u were working in Citibank???
Me: Errr... Ya.. My new guy colleague...
Doc: OOOOHHHHHH.... New BOY!!! Hahaha.
Doc's mobile rang and he answered. Started speaking in Cantonese!! Made me feel even more at ease with him..Call ended..
Doc (while writing prescription): New BOY!!! Hahahaha. (Breaks into a loud guffaw which made me laugh too) That's a funny description! ;)
Me: Hehehe.
Doc: K.. I'll prescribe the same medicine as previous time ok? It worked well the other time so we'll use it again. But to have it recurring once a month is not very good.. It means you're more prone to such things.. Must really drink more water ya? To confirm, any pain when urinating??
Me: Okies.. I will! Errr... Starting to feel a bit painful... :(
Doc: K.. Don't have to come back for checkup. Early stages should clear quite easily and well. Take care of urself!!
Me: I will!! U too!!! Bye!
Doc: Bye!!
So.. That was the whole conversation. Quite funny and I had a good laugh. :p But yeah, what doc said was true.. To have the same ailment happen again within a month is really sucky! The last time I had it was 08 May. 2nd time is today, 09 June. Exactly a month ago!! Faints.. I'm sooooo screwed. Really really really must take care of myself!!
Don't dare to tell family.. They will be bound to nag at me. Hehehe. Keep it to myself.. Shhhhh.....

Family Rocks!
Home!
Woke up at 8.30am to go to the temple to pray to Dad, Mum & Gramp with the whole family. After that, went to visit Gram at the nursing home and I managed to make Gram to scold me again. Haha. I'm always good at doing that. :p
Headed to Aunt Mic's place for lunch. Aunts and uncle were asking why JZ wasn't there and I simply lowered my head and stuffed myself with food. Aunt Mic commented that this bf doesn't seem to care or love me as much.. I feel the same too and I dunno what to do.. :( My family's been very supportive of what I do and the bfs I brought back, even though they may not like the guy a lot, they simply say as long as he loves me, it's good enough for them. But now.. I dunno...
Played mahjong after lunch til dinner time. I won $80+.. There's this saying "
情场失意，赌场得意" which means that if a person is sad in terms of love, he/she will win at the gambling table. Haha. Maybe that's why I won I guess...
Had dinner and messaged JZ regarding some stuff. I thought communication had stopped after I replied him but he suddenly asked if I was mad at him for not meeting me for 2 weeks. Told him I wasn't mad at him coz of that but more of the attitude he showed me.. He said he's very bad tempered during the day due to work and happened to be pissed when I sms-ed him. What should I say? I dunno.. I didn't say much actually.. No longer know what to say....
Anyway, my family knew something was wrong and they did a lot of things to make me happy which I'm very grateful and thankful to them about. Ky cheered me up by playing with me and showing me her art stuff. We even did colouring together!! It felt like we were back in our childhood days. Ann told me not to worry... That I still have her to accompany me. :) I'm thankful for having them by my side, supporting me throughout. :p It really makes my life so much better.
K.. Jus showered.. Shall go do my stuff.. Tata!

Thanx Bee!
My home..
Woke up @ 2+pm today. Sms-ed Bee and confirmed the timing to meet. Lazed around a while more and got out of bed at 3pm. Hungry so ate a few pieces of Chicken in a Biscuit biscuits, Showered and left house at 4.30pm. Reached Suntec @ 5pm.. Waited for Bee til 5.40pm...
Went to the World Book Fair. Bee wanted to go and I accompanied her there. Mostly Chinese books. We walked the whole area and I was sooo engrossed in the pics of the Sichuan earthquake. Teared while looking at the pics coz they were really heart wrenching. Really really sad..
Went to another few exhibitions @ Suntec Convention Centre. Then went to basement Tonkichi for dinner. Jap restaurant where they served pretty good fried pork. We ordered a set to share and a plate of maki. So filling!!! We were there for 1 hour plus trying to finish all our food. Haha. Took a bus to Orchard after that.
Reached Orchard about 9pm. Walked around Wisma Isetan. Saw a few nice items that I wanted to buy but were really expensive.. Wanted to go Gucci to take a look but was too late coz the shop would be closed by the time that we reached there. Sighz.. Bought 2 small tube tops (internal wear kind) for $10 each. The only things that I bought today. Left Wisma @ 10pm and cabbed home on our own coz we were tired.
Thankful to have good friends, especially Bee. She's really been there for me throughout all the tough times.. The breakup, the heartaches, the sadness, etc etc. She keeps me company when I'm down and out.. Accompanied me instead of her own hubby and volunteers to buy dinner to bring to my place when I was sick. She's been a really great friend and I'm glad to have known her. Thanks Bee! For keeping me company on weekends when I'm bored and sad without him, keeping me occupied so that I won't think so much. :)
Tomorrow is Dad's 100 days. He's not going.. Nothing to say. K.. Shall end this post coz need to sleep early as I'll wake up early. Nitez!

Fire
Home. My home. Surprised? Don't be. Becoming common and normal now ain't it?
Aunt Margaret told me that this will be her last month taking the van to work. Suddenly recalled that ya, she's retiring by end of this month. Will no longer have breakfast to eat & I don't eat dinner if I've got no appointments at nite. That makes it.. 1 meal a day - lunch. Don't be surprised if u see a skeleton next time.
Bought lunch from BK back to office. Super hot weather. I wore tube top but was perspiring by time I reached BK and it was only a 3 mins walk away. Bought 3 meals but when I reached office, there was only 2 burgers. Tried calling the outlet but phone was engaged. Kinda pissed, I walked back to BK with Mel to claim the burger. Store manager who was the one who served us initially seemed doubtful the whole time I was telling him he didn't give me my burger. Wanted to diss him by telling him how hot the weather is and I don't fancy walking in the sweltering heat to purposely cheat him of a burger. Didn't do that... I'm losing my fire.. Maybe I'm too tired..
Back in office, everybody was curious if I screamed at the manager coz knowing my temper, it would have happened. All were surprised. Haha. Yes, many things this week could have made me lose my temper, especially today. Ailmer, the new guy, can really rub people the wrong way. He's making us a bit pissed with the things he say. He called me a sadistic 王八蛋 (bastard) early in the morning. Then complained about this and that. Afternoon, said that no matter how I make up, ugly is ugly.
I'm still keeping my temper in control. When I've got enough sleep and he carries on like that next week, he's gonna get it from me. Big time. With his mindless blabbering, incessant questioning about my private life, rude and sarcastic remarks about me, I can only keep in control by a certain level. Once he hits that level, he's gonna 'die'. With my fire, he will be burned alive. Try me.
Dinner with dealer, Heng Wee. He picked me up from Century Square and we ate at Kallang Brewerkz. Amazingly, we hit it off quite well since he joined the company late last year. :) He's so sweet and nice to his wife.. Just like Matt. Good men are always taken. Sighz...
Supposed to meet Kang Jun gor & Esther for dinner in town but they finished dinner even before I had finished work!!! Sighz.. How pathetic of me.. Haha. Will meet up with them next time.. Met Bee in town after dinner and I accompanied her for dinner. Walked from Wisma to Hotel Rendezvous Coffee Club for dinner coz everywhere else was crowded with long queues. Madness.. Left the place at 12.30am, cabbed and dropped her home 1st before coming home myself. Didn't join Joey at Lunar coz Bee was sick and I was too tired..
Lying on my bed typing this post now.. My bed is beckoning to me.. Haha. Nitez folks!

Avril Lavigne - When You're Gone
Staring at my lappie and my mind is a blank.. Nothing's been going on in my life, what should I write about? Is my life becoming so boring really? Hmmz...
Received a sms from Joey today asking me to go Lunar tomorrow. Not really the place I like to go and I'm really tired. Couldn't get out of bed today. Had to drag myself out of bed. Still considering if I wanna join them at Lunar. Supposed to meet Kang Jun gor and Esther for dinner tomorrow.. Haven't confirmed with them yet as well.
Haven't met JZ for 2 weeks plus now. Not sure if I'll be meeting him this weekend. Didn't ask and don't wanna ask. Don't want to be told off like last week. Starting to realise that it doesn't matter that I haven't seen him for almost 3 weeks now. No longer feel sad or disappointed about it. If he wants to meet, then it will be like getting a pressie. Haha. Dunno how to describe.
Oh, headhunter called me this morning when I was busy at work. Opening for Cash Management position at an Aussie bank. Forgot to call him back coz I was too busy. Maybe I'll call him tomorrow and just go for it. No harm trying. See how it goes..
Raymond from private side sent me 2 openings as well. Haven't had time to look at it yet. Will do so in the morning. Hopefully this time round, I can at least go for the interview since I haven't been to interviews in a long long time. Need to brush up my skills. :)
K.. Tummyache and I need to bathe.. Here's the lyrics to my new blog song...
Avril Lavigne - When You're GoneI always needed time on my own
I never thought I'd need you there when I cry
And the days feel like years when I'm alone
And the bed where you lie is made up on your side
When you walk away I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now
[Chorus]
When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone
The face I came to know is missing too
When you're gone
The words I need to hear to always get me through the day and make it ok
I miss you
I've never felt this way before
Everything that I do reminds me of you
And the clothes you left, they lie on the floor
And they smell just like you, I love the things that you do
When you walk away I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now
[Chorus]
We were made for each other
Out here forever
I know we were, yeah
All I ever wanted was for you to know
Everything I'd do, I'd give my heart and soul
I can hardly breathe I need to feel you here with me, yeah
[Chorus]

Nice Massage
Very tired. Sent Matt off at the airport today. Supposed to send Edmund gor on Saturday but simply couldn't wake up. Today, I could coz it's the same time as waking up to go office, just that I made the trip to the airport 1st. Cried after he left.. I hate sending people off sometimes.. Especially friends and people I'm really close to and you dunno when they will be back. Cried when Ali left, when Edmund gor left, when Matt left.. Sighz...
Ran errands during lunch time. So happy to have bought the eyeliner at the roadshow coz I bought 2 eyeliners and 1 liquid foundation, they gave me free concealer and lip gloss!!! Things that I use and those 2 freebies actually cost about $35! To think that I spent $55 and got $35 worth of freebies! Good and worthy buy. Hehehe.
That was the only highlight of the whole day. Was soooo tired and sleepy at work. Quite busy too but these days, I'm too lethargic to rush much. I tend to try to pace myself, especially so after yesterday where I worked til I felt nauseous. That was a horrible moment that I hope I don't have to go thro again.
JZ chatted with me on MSN last nite. When he voluntarily messages or calls me these days, I tend to be surprised and amazed. Think the next time we chat will probably be a few days later. Haha. We simply don't behave like a couple at times. Sometimes I think I chat with my friends and I feel closer to them than to him. Sighz.. I know it's not healthy..
Ok.. Shall not continue on that topic. My eyes are almost closing. I'm sooooo sleepy. Agnes was soooo sweet to help me massage 3 times today just to keep me awake and I feel bad coz she wasn't feeling very well. Thanx dear!!! I really appreciate it!!!

Hot Pot Culture
Work was crazy today. Gopi had to take medical leave today of all times. Sometimes, I think he does it on purpose.. How can anyone's timing be so good that he falls sick on the most hectic periods like after a holiday or on month end cutoff? So many times.. I give up.
Did everything myself today. Mel helped with commodities which was supposed to be Gopi's work. I did futures and options. Mahesh helped with some parts here and there and the new boy helped out too. Luckily this new boy is still quite ok and very willing to learn and help. Else, I'll go mad.
Worse part was that there were sooooo many issues today. Customer did not receive our confirmations, did not have instructions, etc etc. Major issue came when deal was booked wrong in the wrong books (ie, should have been done with Singapore but booked in NY books) and it was past value date. Sighz.. Had to stay back to resolve the issues, finish all the month end stuff as today is cutoff date. Ended work at 8pm and was late for dinner. :((((
And to top it off, I had diarrhoea in office after lunch and I worked til I felt nauseous. Fantastic right? Haha. Super overworked...
Had dinner at Marina Square Hot Pot Culture. So so only. Not that great. Company was good though. Laughed and joked a lot, as always. Wonder when will we get to meet again... Maybe half a year later.. Sighz.. That's too long.. Way too long.. :((((
Just reached home and showered.. Think I shall go do my stuff and sleep soon.. Nitez!

Home Cooked Dinner!!!
Feeling very very tired now. Didn't sleep well last nite.. My bed still loves me, not to worry. ;p
New boy came in today, Ailmer is his name. Missed having gor in the office. Thank God he called!! I miss hearing him call me Xiao Mei.. :((( New guy seems much better than Gopi. At least he's willing to learn and to write down when I teach him. :) But was too busy in the afternoon to teach him much. At least he asks smart questions. Hehe.
Finished work at 8+pm.. Had home cooked dinner tonite!! Was so sumptuous!!! Love it soooo much!!! It was a taste of home!! Felt like the old days of having dinner at home. Miss the good old days!!! :( But dinner was delicious!!
Think my mind is not functioning properly. Not sure what I'm writing anymore.. Too tired to write.. Wanna bathe and sleep soon.. Nitez!

Sex and The City rocks!!!
Friday (30 May 2008)Busy day @ work due to month end. Good in a way coz I know I won't think about anything except to work work and work. Never once did I feel like sms-ing or calling him. I didn't have time to think of it.. Til he messaged me at 4.47pm sying that he can only meet me on Sat nite. I didn't reply til I finished work at 8pm. I don't understand why he can't do the same. Never once did I tell him to reply ASAP or on the spot. I always give him advance notice.. I don't see why he had to say those words the other day.
Told him I'm not free this weekend. 2nd time we're not meeting at all over the weekend. I wanted to spend this weekend with Matt before he leaves Singapore coz he won't be back til at least next year. I'd rather spend it with friends, be happy than to be unhappy. Everybody asked me to talk to him about it. Trust me, u guys just dunno him. If we were to talk about this issue, it would be very simple.. That this relationship will end.. Being the MCP and ego guy that he is, I know the end result and I'm not sure if that's what I want yet.
Met Bee and Joey after work. Window shopped with Bee for a while before Joey met us for dinner. Had dinner at Phin's til 11pm when they were closing and we were the last ones left in the restaurant. Haha. Headed to Oscar's at Conrad for drinks and we simply chilled out there and chatted til 1+am. Headed home. My home.
Saturday (31 May 2008)Woke up at 2pm. I slept for 12 hours straight and it feels real good! Finally back to my old life and not being scolded or nagged at for sleeping til so late. Yupz.. That's what happens when I'm over at his place. He'll be complaining that I sleep too much. I like my old life.. I love to sleep! I'm tired from Mon to Fri and I love sleeping in on weekends. That's me. This weekend was fabulous coz I get to do that! YAY!!!
Lazed around, booked tickets to watch Sex and the City at Tampines 7.05pm. Managed to get good seats. Good thing about watching movies at neighbourhood area. Showered, left house at 3.30pm to go Suntec and City Link. Lunch at Toa Payoh Central 1st and had 1 of my favourite drinks at Koi Cafe - Oolong tea with small pearls that's half sugar. :) Brightened my day immediately.
Suntec and City Link to buy some stuff. Bought the pair of earrings that I liked while window shopping with Bee the nite before. Didn't check properly and realised that it was slightly defective after that. Receipt was thrown hence can't be changed. Sighz.. I'm sad... :(
Tampines to watch Sex and the City. FANTASTIC show!!!! For someone who has the DVDs of the series but never watched a single episode yet, the show was simply wonderful!!! Loved it!!! I was gushing over the walk in closet, the romantic parts.. Tearing over the sad part where he didn't get out of the car and where she said she was still jilted and in depression. Teared bad when she just laid on the bed and refused to eat. That made me feel like.. Me. I've been losing appetite recently. Even when I'm hungry, I eat a bit and I'm full. Something's not right coz that's not me. Will see how things go. Anyway, the show was simply AWESOME!!! I'm getting the disc once it's out and I think I can keep re-watching it! Great clothes, shoes, wardrobe! Everything was just gorgeous!!! Way cool!!!
Dinner at Bedok before heading to Rochester for drinks with Matt, Wan and Zo @ Grace Restaurant. Never been to Rochester b4. Must try to go One Rochester next time. Had fun chatting and chilling there. Again, we were the last to leave at 12.30am. Decided to go KTV and we sang til 4am. Wan and Zo continued as the room was til 6am while Matt & I left 1st coz I was falling asleep in the room. Haha.
Back to my home to sleep. And seriously, my bed and room love me a lot these days!!
Sunday (01 June 2008)Woke up at 3pm. Fantastic!! Absolutely great feeling to sleep in!! Told u my bed and room love me! Haha. Been sleeping soooo soundly!!!
Slight headache after that. :( But was ok.. Just no sudden movements and I felt ok. Raffles City and I had craving for donuts when we walked past the shop coz it smelt soooo yummy! Bought 6 donuts, had 2 on the spot with an Iced Caramelite. Drool!!!
Tried to change the earrings, was rejected. :(((( Bought a new ring. :)))
Funan Centre with Matt as he wanted to buy webcam and I wanted to buy a notebook cool pad for my baby lappie and an external hard disk. Bought a 750GB hard disk for $250. Hahaha. Love the notebook cool pad coz the light is blue, just like my lappie! It matches sooo well!!! :D
Walked past Apple and I'm considering buying the MacBook Air or the MacBook 2.4GHz White. But if I buy a new lappie, that will be my 3rd one. 1st lappie is currently on loan to my sis. Hmmz.. But seriously, I can't decide which one to buy and I feel like buying both the MacBooks coz they look soooo beautiful!!! Shucks!! That will cost at least $5,000. Damn!! Not that rich yet.. Even buying 1 seems extravagant coz my current HP lappie is only 1 year old and I still love it!!
What should I do??? What if my current lappie becomes jealous?? Hmmz.. But I can't resist temptation!!! Shucks shucks shucks!!! Why did I go and look at MacBooks??? Now I can't get it off my mind!! And I'm still thinking if I should change my bed!! And shucks.. I keep forgetting to get the bar fridge from my cousin to be put in my room!!!
Oh, forgot to mention.. I'm getting a bar fridge for my room. In future, I do not have to step out of my room at all coz I've got a water pot in my room plus a bar fridge. My TV, DVD player, radio cum mp3 player, lappie, toilet and aircon.. My room = my house now. The only time I need to step out of my room is maybe to cook instant noodles, throw rubbish into the chute, do my laundry and get out of the house. Hahaha. See.. No wonder my room and bed love me more these days.. Coz I've been spending sooooo much time with them!!! Woohoo!!!
By the way, he hasn't called or sms-ed me for 2 days and neither have I..
