Sprained Thumb

Woke up early (12pm) to shower, prepare and head to Ann's place for lunch. Headed to AMK after that to look for a sinseh but upon reaching, Ann & I got so irritated by the sinseh that we left. Decided to go look for the sinseh at Lavender instead. Traffic the whole day was mad. Super crowded roads. Finally arrived at the sinseh. Had to wait half an hour so we went to the food court for dessert 1st. Had a hot cheng teng and Ann had tau suan. Had to endure excruciating untolerable pain when the sinseh poked needles in my hand, rubbed and massaged my thumb and hand. It was so painful that I kept perspiring and wanted to scream. My whole hand was numb and it still hurts now. Sinseh said that I had to go back for another round on Wed. Faint.. But anything goes as long as my thumb doesn't hurt and the swelling goes down. Stupid box in the middle of the aisle at work caused me to sprain it on Tues. Kept delaying going to the sinseh til today. Hopefully will recover soon

苏永康-无法开口

Heard the below song on TV today when I woke up. Immediately went to search for it. It's from a Taiwan show. I like it so much.. I've bold the parts of the song that I like.. 苏永康 - 无法开口 如果我知道太多 那关于相遇的错过 奋不顾身的追求能找到什么 如果你等得太久 请相信我不曾经过 想装上翅膀飞到你身后 爱很浓 心很空 该怎么停在你心中 只剩长已久的寂寞时间 带不走 爱很多 心很痛 究竟有多少次错过 这唯一的承诺 深深埋在心中 我却无法开口 相信放在心中 愿随时为你保留 真爱在我口袋 别让风把它带走 思念不能放开 它就像潮水 难以回收 就算相拥一秒种 就已足够 Dinner at Aunt Mic's place just now. To celebrate sis's bday in advance. Aunt Mic asked if I'm seeing anyone now. My answer.. No. Not seeing anyone. Was thinking about this last nite as well. I think I no longer know how to love anyone. It's too tough.. I admit that I've failed in this area. I dunno how to love and I dunno if I'll know how to love someone again. Doesn't matter anyway. Will just focus on my career. Told aunt and Ky that I wanna go back to studying. I dunno what I wanna study yet but I know that I wanna study again. It doesn't matter how much hardwork I have to go...

Long Hair..

Left office on the dot at 7pm today. Had to rush all my monthend stuff to accomplish such a feat. Especially since there were some hiccups. Not sure how I did that when I'm so tired and had so much to do. But whatever the case, I'm glad to be home and lying on my bed now. Ed gor met us for lunch. Such a big group. Doubt I'll be able to spend much time with him but we always talk online so guess it's still alright. :p Bus ride home was bad. This female boarded at Bedok, sat next to me and fell asleep immediately. Her head kept falling towards my side and her super long hair kept tickling my arm. So irritating!!! I'm amazed I managed to keep my cool and didn't tell her off when my mood ain't too good today. :( Shall go play some games, watch some shows to make myself feel better..

12 Dec - ANDY LAU!!!

Zoning out. Ended work at 11pm. The nightmare started with only 1 day left to go. Left with 1 teeny bit to finish up tomorrow. Hopefully the lady from the cash dept can gimme the data that I need urgently. Month end tomorrow. Another busy day. I like the hectic lifestyle. Time flies by so quickly. I'm mad. I know. Haha. I always get excited over month ends coz I know I'll definitely have things to do. Though sometimes I'll bitch about too much work. I still love working. :p How crazy can I be? This morning while reading the papers, I saw that Andy Lau is gonna hold a World Tour concert in Singapore. Imagine my happiness! Nearly hyperventilated. Immediately sms-ed, called, office messaged and emailed the whole world asking who wanna go with me. In the end, I booked 7 tix - Me, Peg, MZ, Irene, Cheryl, Zoey & her colleague. Muahahaha. WOOHOO!!!! I'm FINALLY going to see Andy LIVE IN PERSON!!!!!!!!!! Melt!!! Drool!!!! I can't wait!!! 12 Dec!!!!!!!!! For the 1st time...

Stupid Bitch

Typing this in the office now coz I'm real pissed. My colleague, CY, whom I used to be quite close to had a gf since last year. She's a young bitch who is only 19. Totally dislike her. Ever since she got together with CY, he has changed so much that all of us no longer know him anymore. He's no longer part of the group and most times, doesn't turn up for gatherings coz of her. I feel that that's dumb. Especially when we all feel something else. We feel that she's a bimbo. A total slave driver. Out to fleece and suck CY dry of his money and make him carry her bags for her when he's already carrying so many things. He will take cab from East to town just to meet her for lunch. He would fake medical leave or run out during office hours just to go out with her or accompany her. Whenever she whines, pouts or just say she likes something, CY would do for her and just buy whatever she wants. He is like her ATM and it's so dumb of him. Seriously. She thinks she...

No samples... :(

Left office at 6.30pm today!!! Muahahaha. But think the next few days will be hell. No samples provided to me for the testing yet. And the deadline is 3 days away. I think, I can just die.. :( Oopss.. Hungry now. Hehe. Met Lynnie for lunch today coz she was at Tampines. :) Haven't had lunch with her for soooo long!! Eating so much tapioca chips.. Now I'm quite full. Should I attack my melon ice cream? Hmmzz... I haven't played games in a long while! Lemme go play some games 1st. Update again either later or tomorrow. :p

Irritating Alarm

In my fave spot typing this. I'm sure u guys know where. :p Some stupid alarm has been ringing non stop since the moment I got off the car, reached home til now. It's very very irritating. Work - Boring. But somehow I was busy. Busy helping toot Ailmer while he actually had time to put his head on the desk to rest. Sighz.. What else can I say? Complained to Kelv today about him rebutting me and not listening to what I wanted to tell him. Muahahaha. I'm evil! :D Went to Mel's gramp's funeral after work. I actually had to wait from 6.30pm til 8.10pm before we could leave office. ARGH! Waste of my time when I'm already sooo tired. Tomorrow and the day after might be quite busy coz gotta cover Mel for audit testing as Chris Yaw (her back up) is on leave this week and the work is due this Fri. Will do my best. At least I have work to do! Haha. I'm mad! Coz the wake was near Wayne and Edmund's place, they came to pick me up and we went to a pasar malam at Houg...

Meet Dave / Money No Enough 2

Image
Friday (22 August 2008) Came home, wanted to blog. On lappie but too tired. Off lappie and off to dreamland. Was quite a free and easy day. Mel's grandpa passed away. Condolences. :( Did my stuff and all. Finished everything by 6.45pm. Waited for Rachel and Sylvia to leave office for Vivo to have our staff event. Vivo movie event "Meet Dave" started at 8pm sharp. Dinner began and the food disappeared soooo quickly!!! The food this time round, was really delicious and value for money. I'm just glad everybody enjoyed it and had fun coz I'm the organiser! Hahaha. Movie started at 9.30pm and ended at about 11pm. Wayne and Edmund came along. We headed for Labrador Park after the movie. Threesome! Haha. As always, crapped and joked a lot. :) Home at 1+am, showered and slept at 2am. Saturday (23 August 2008) Official wake up time is 4pm. That's 14 hours of sleep! Woke up once at 10+am, 1pm to open the door for my part time cleaner, 2+pm coz she came into my room to c...

Bored...

Happily sitting in the toilet typing this post. Haha. My usual spot. What's new? :p I'm mad. Another boring day @ work. Can it get any more boring? I'm dying from boredom soon. Hate such days. I'm a workaholic! I thrive on work. I need work to survive and yet, I'm bored to tears. Called UOB to waive off annual fee, checked out the Starhub website for rewards redemption, paid my Citibank card bill, checked my POSB account.. All those were done during office hours. That's how bored I was. Hahaha. Movie event "Meet Dave" tomorrow nite. Bringing Bee along. ^.^ Took the last 2 tix as well. Giving to the gay partners - Wayne & Edmund. They are sitting together on their own. Edmund requested for the last row corner seat so that they can be romantic together. Haha. Go ahead!!! Be my guest! :) I'm still feeling so bored that I've got nothing to blog about. :( Shall go bathe and play games instead. Muahaha. Oopss.. Need to tidy my room a bit too. Way...

Love Guru

I realised I was too distracted last nite that I didn't finish typing everything I wanted to say. So here goes.. Tuesday (19 August 2008) My shoes gave me a huge blister. Sucks! 2nd time wearing that pair of heels only. Bought it for my D&D in Jan or Feb this year. :( Rachel was very nice to change shoes with me and we both looked funny while trying to walk. Her shoes were too small for me so I had to step on the strap whereas mine were too big for her and she had difficulty walking. Haha. Decided to look for a new pair of heels. I'm into cod shoes but with really high heels these days. Finally found 1 pair and I realised why my shoes were hurting me so bad!! They were 1 size too small from my normal! Toot me! O.o But thanx to Rachel for being so sweet as to change shoes with me so that my blister won't get even bigger than it already is. It's at least the size of a 20 cent coin! Faint.. I'm still hurting today.. And during lunch, I scalded my fingers with very ...

Icekimo

Quiet day at work. Only 1 deal. Finally had time to complete my audit review. Phew!! 1 week before the deadline. Will spend tomorrow getting samples for the rest to do their testing and audit review. Left office at 8pm.. Reached home at 9pm.. Came home & coincidentally, Wayne called. Edmund and him picked me up to go for ice cream at Upper Thomson. It's a place called Icekimo. I ordered a waffle with Milo Dinosaur ice cream & Horlicks with Maltesers ice cream. That's the pic of my ice cream waffle! :p The guys ordered a waffle with Teh Tarik ice cream & Belgium Chocolate ice cream. Our waffle ice cream!!! We're becoming a threesome these days. Haha. But we have fun and we talk so much crap everytime we meet. Edmund & I are always teasing and making fun of each other, debating about topics. -.-'' K.. Time for me to eat my gingko nut dessert. Muahahaha. I keep snacking and eating non stop today. Crackers, chocs, desserts. Non stop!!! I just keep puttin...

Kissing Pigs

Surviving on only 1.5 hours of sleep, I'm amazed that I'm still awake at this moment. But 1 thing is for sure, I'm unable to control my temperament when I lack sleep. I was impatient towards Mel in the afternoon and I felt bad about it. Didn't mean to but really couldn't control. Sorry!!! Work was the only thing that kept me going thro the whole day. And of coz, a few chats with Cheryl, Irene and a few dealers. 1 of them (PSM) made my day by saying this, "Anal people can do things meticulously." Haha. We were talking about cleaning toilets, clearing rubbish and opening a cleaning company when he said that we should employ Ailmer and that sentence popped out. Hahaha. It was evil and mean but it made me burst out laughing and it was a really loud one. It woke me up after that. :p I LOVE my dealers who never cease to make me smile and laugh when I need one. ^.^ All I wanted to do was to head home after work. Cancelled my dinner/drinks appointment with Terrenc...

Incredible - 8 gold medals!

My beloved Michael Phelps has done it!!! He's won 8 gold medals in an Olympic game and he received a special recognition and award for the wonderful performance. He deserves the award and I feel so proud of him!!! I was once again, screaming and shouting at the top of my lungs while he swam and I'm glad he managed to give US the lead and Jason Lezak held on to the lead for the win. That was incredible swimming and teamwork! Fantastic performance by them!! But kinda sad that there's no more Phelps moment or magic from now on coz swimming is over for Olympic games at 2008. :( Wonder when I'll be able to catch another Phelps moment. Sighz.. Anyway, our Singapore Table Tennis Women's team has won us a Silver Medal after 48 years without a medal! Proud of our female peddlers especially coz I was in the table tennis team in college. :) Well done Singapore!! Today is an emotional day. I teared when Phelps got his recognition, when he won his 8th gold medal. It was touching...

Spendthrift!

I really did wake up to watch Phelps in competition this morning. Am I glad I did!!!! Phelps won by 0.01 sec!!! Can u believe it??? I was screaming, cheering, shouting at home and my heart was pumping so fast I thought it would drop out! Super exciting swim!!!! A hundredth of a sec! How much crazier can that get??? WOOHOO!!!!!!! 7 golds!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!! Wanted to get my nap at 12pm but.. Winnie, my part time cleaner, came at 12.30pm. Tried to continue sleeping but Jean called me at 1pm and 1.30pm. In the end, she bought me lunch and came over at 2pm. Ate and chatted til 3.30pm when I had to get ready to meet Shon for pool. Thanx to my dearest Jean for buying lunch for me!! :) Shon came over at about 4pm. Brought me my stuff which I had left with him for more than a year now. Haha. Played pool at a pub he frequents at Novena. I suck at pool now coz I haven't touched it for soooo long! But managed to win 1 game. Not that bad.. And he said something which I've been hearing from a ...

Table Tennis Olympic Medal!

Forgot to set my alarm last nite. I didn't wake up at all. Was so sound asleep til my mobile rang at 8.04am. My driver, Mr Lim, called to ask if I was taking the van. I was like "OH SHIT!" and I quickly told him no and apologised profusely for the trouble. Yes, I was late. Decided to take my time to prepare since I would be taking a cab to work anyway. Haha. Reached office at 9.15am. Not that late coz cab driver drove fast and I didn't have to wait long for it anyway. :p Work was free and easy today. Ran my morning reports and settlements. Watched Phelps break another world record and win the semis to get into the finals for tomorrow. COOL!!! That's gold number 6!!! YAY!!! 2 more to go!!! But I'm bad.. I'm not visiting grandma tomorrow coz I wanna catch Phelps on TV for another of his finals.. :( Soon, it was lunch. Vegetarian food for lunch as today is the 15th of the Chinese calendar. Not for any religious purpose. It has become a habit since Dad was hos...

Happy Bday All!

Busy today, til the point where I had to lunch in, eat @ my desk and continue working as I ate. Halfway thro lunch, I got bored and joined Chris mama & Mel to chat and eat. :p Was assigned an impossible task to finish by end of today. Talked to Subodh together with Mel and he agreed to let us have the easier way out though he bugged me a couple of times after that. Haha. But it was better than me having to slug it out at work and wasting my time doing ridiculous stuff. :) Thanks to Mel for helping me out as well! No new deals today so had time to finally clear up all the stuff that I had on hand til now. Still have some stuff left to do but hopefully I can clear those up by tomorrow as well. Left office at 6.50pm to meet XZ for dinner at Orchard. Town @ 8pm. Ate @ Sun with Moon Restaurant @ Wheelock Place. Both of us ordered Hokkai Kamamenshi. I ordered Melon Plus to drink and XZ ordered Grape Punch. We shared dessert of Tofu Cheese Cake and Matcha Tiramisu. Yummy!! My treat for XZ...

Outrage of Modesty

The day started off well. Work and watched Olympics on TV at office when it was Michael Phelps moment. Was soooo nervous when from the moment he plunged into the pool til the moment he touched home. Happy and excited when he won! Yay!! Went out to buy lunch for the team for the lunch meeting. Came back. Lunch meeting took 2 hours plus. Worked all the way. Pretty ok day. Had a little chat with 1 of my dealers. He's always teaching me new stuff. :p Ended work at 7.30pm. Didn't finish my work. Rushed down to Bugis to meet Hongwei papa for dinner. He's gonna leave Tampines to work at Tanjong Pagar. Sure gonna miss having my papa at Tampines though we don't work in the same company. We do get together for lunch once in a while to catch up and stuff. Now, we'll have to switch to dinner. Haha. Ate at MOF. I had Sukiyaki Beef and dessert of Matcha Ice with Red Beans which I shared with papa. Chatted about stuff then papa walked me to the bus stop to take bus home. Played my...

4th Time in 4 Months

Morning - Work work work Lunch. Ate sushi @ Tampines Swimming Pool area. That place holds certain memories. Not gonna think about it. It was a treat from Mel, Chris mama, Carissa mummy & I for Rachel's bday. We ate soooo much that it costs $145!! Woah!!! We really ate a lot today. I felt I was about to explode with the amount of food that I put in! Unbelievable!!! Afternoon - Work work work. Went to see doctor at the clinic below my office at 4pm. Couldn't take it anymore. Sighz.. And I was soooo demoralised after the trip to the doctor. I'm having the same infection again!!! That's 4 times in 4 months. Since May!!! UTI AGAIN!!!! I'm soooo gonna faint.. What the hell is wrong with me???? I'm seriously wondering.. Doc said she wants me to go back for a checkup next week. She's gonna send the sample for lab tests to see if I'm really ok. :_( I'm seriously sad.. Why is this happening to me over and over again?? Pain in the ass.. ARGH!!! She prescrib...

Glutton = Tummy Ache!

Sunday (10 August 2008) Discussion went well. Air tickets and hotel have been booked. Itinery has been planned. All I did was to book the air tickets and hotel after everyone has agreed. The rest of the stuff were done and planned by them while I simply lazed on my bed. Hahaha. Oh, and I was busy eating fried oyster omelette and the soup that Ann brought for me. Hehe. Dinner at Geylang with Bee, Felix & Bee's hubby. Wanted to eat the fish head steamboat but couldn't find parking at all. Traffic at Geylang on Sunday is madness! Went to eat at Xin Ma at Geylang instead. Less crowded there. Ordered our standard dishes - Frog's Leg Porridge, Omelette, Long Beans with Dried Shrimps, Beancurd & Marmite Chicken. Of coz I had my lime juice too! :p Dessert at Bugis. I had White Fungus with Papaya & Double Boiled Egg with Hashima! Woohoo!!! I'm a pig!! We even ordered Water Chestnut Cake to share and Peanut Dumplings too! PIG!!!!!! Muahahaha. Due to the huge amount of...

Zouk

Watching Olympics the minute I open my eyes. I've always been a sports freak and I've always loved watching it, esp in school days when I would just stick 24/7 in front of my TV to catch all the action. All those years of practise and training just for 1 moment of glory. I know that feeling and the proud moments which is why I like watching it. ;) Ok.. Update for the last 2 days where I have gone missing.. Friday (08 August 2008) Significant date ain't it? 080808.. Maybe to most. I took a moment to sms my family and some of my close friends to thank them for being there by my side when I was down and out. They have been fantastic people and I wanted to let them know that I appreciate them. :) Work drove me mad. The number of confirmations to print, the stupid problem with the brokerage invoice. Really made me pissed and irritated. In no mood to work, I left office at 7pm sharp to meet up with the gals for dinner. Taka at 8pm. I was the 2nd to arrive after Anne, who was the ...

Right Here Waiting

Tired tired tired!! I can sleep anytime, any place now! :p Given the fact that I'm a pig, why is that not surprising? Hmmz.. Work was more manageable today. I didn't help out much with the daily production in options except til end of the day. Busy with the monthly brokerage invoice and that took close to the whole day. Yet I only managed to finish 2 invoices. Sighz.. And that was after 3 cups of coffee. Yupz, that's how much coffee I had today to get my engine started. :D Left office at 8.30pm coz Wayne decided to pick me up. Cancelled my movie apppointment with Zub early this morning coz I'm way toooo tired for movie at this point in time. Came home, changed, dumped my clothes into the washing machine and headed out to Serangoon for dinner together with Edmund and Xue Er. It's always the 4 of us now. :) They got a shock when they heard that I normally don't take dinner. Hmmz.. What's wrong with that?? Had carrot cake near Wayne & Edmund's place. Oh...

Work Ethics?

Image
Finally home and showered. I'm so deadbeat now that my eyes can barely open. No new deals today but the work was still too much to handle. All the leftovers from monthend and the things that I've shoved aside just to handle the day to day production. Clearing my backlog now and I worked til 10+pm.. Had a talk with Ailmer about his attitude and his work ethics. Sighz.. Hope it gets thro to him and that he understands where we are coming from. Can only hope for the best I guess.. Supposed to have dinner with Ow tonite but coz I ended so late (so did he), we postponed to next week. Wayne, Edmund & Xue Er picked me up from work and they had to wait for me for half an hour. Ooppsss.... So sorry!! Wayne and I had a talk thro sms today. We discussed about our 4th try together, whether we wanted to try or not. We decided to let nature take its course coz we don't wanna get hurt by each other again. And the fact that we won't know if we're still gonna contact each other ...

Vinegar = Jealous?

Ok.. To blog while being in the toilet now is such a hassle. I had to unplug the cables for the lappie cooler, the mouse and the adapter cable. My goodness! But I still did all the above coz I'm having a tummyache right now and I wanna blog fast, shower n sleep!!! Another crazily hectic day that's worse than yesterday!!! More unexpected deals with tonnes of errors that I had to re-check everything at least 3 or 4 times!!! And Ailmer still can't cope so I gotta keep doing his stuff for him plus my own stuff plus the new deals. I could have gone mad!!! Once again, left without finishing my work. Was supposed to meet Ow for dinner initially but postponed it to tomorrow coz was supposed to go with Wayne to collect his mobile. Well, all plans were ditched as I only ended work at 9pm and that was without finishing my work! Sighz... Wayne picked me up from office and we headed to Punggol Nasi Lemak @ Hougang for dinner, except that we didn't eat nasi lemak. Haha. Ate the bak c...

Unexpected

Today is an unexpected day.. Work was crazy to the max. Before I knew it, it was 5pm! Crazy. Absolutely madness. So many emails flying around regarding work, Taiwan trip and the celebrations this Fri. Didn't read all my mails. Only knew the gist of things and that was it. Haha. Why is today unexpected then? The madness at work was expected. Started with Zub coming down to Tampines to meet me for lunch. That was unexpected part 1. Lunched @ Swensen's. Had fish & chips set lunch. My treat coz most times, Zub would be paying. Unexpected part 2 was.. Meeting up with KK!!!!! This guy.. I must say is someone who is sooooo hard to meet up with. And our friendship started off amazingly well since the day I stepped into this company. He was leaving the place with 3 weeks of notice left to serve. I had just joined then. And within that 3 weeks, we managed to forge such a close and good friendship together. It's amazing how well we hit it off right from the start. :) And I'm s...

Cooler Master & Razer!!!

Went out with XZ today. Sim Lim at long last to get my lappie things. Had craving for ice cream but we went to eat shaved ice instead. 2nd time to that shop. Their fruit shaved milk ice is really quite nice. :p Walked around Bugis. I went for my eyebrow trimming then we headed to Muji for a walk. Dinner at Sketches where I drew a pic for XZ. The same pic that is my hp wallpaper now - The Sleeping Child. Kinda stressed to draw a pic before the meal was served and the fact that the eraser sucked.. Haha. But did a not too bad pic of it. Could be much better though. Hmmz..... Dinner was nice. The food there is really not bad. Took a bus home where XZ solved loads of my lappie issues and helped to clean up the mess. While doing that, I happened to turn on the TV and Initial D was showing on Channel U!! Watched the show together and XZ left when the show ended. Guess what? I just spent $173 on my lappie things! ;p Bought a Cooler Master Notebook Cooler NotePal Infinite for my lappie. Added a...

Quick post before I head on for my shower and to dreamland. Met Wayne at Bishan @ 1.45pm for The Mummy 3. He made me rush like a mad woman coz we only confirmed the show at 12.45pm and I only had 1 hour to wake up, prepare and reach there in time for movie. He chose the show coz it starred Brendan Fraser. The 1st movie we watched together had him as the star too - George of the Jungle. :p After movie, we walked down memory lane together. I've known Wayne for 11 years. He's 1 of my oldest friends. We got together and split 3 times. Amazingly, we are still friends now. That's how life works sometimes. :) Anyway, we went to the arcade and he played King of Fighters (KOF). The 1st time I met him and got to know him was thro this game but location wise was at Taka. That arcade is no longer there now. Coffee @ Coffee Bean where he made me a straw star which he always does when we go out. And he even folded me a seagull using the serviette. He was the one who taught me how to fold...

Get Well Soon, Tom!

Busy day again today. So will Monday be. I'm happy being busy except that I don't have time to draw. But still, it's nice to have work to do. :) Spent lunch time playing a financial game organised by the company. This week is Citi Financial Week (all splashed over the papers). Haha. They organised the game for us to learn about managing our finances and how to make money grow. I enjoyed the game sooooooooo much!!!!!!!! It kinda depends on luck as well but it was really fun and nice. :p Thanx to Carissa mummy for managing to get us in to play the game! Managed to finish all my work on time (aka 7pm) coz I'm.. EFFICIENT! Haha. Crappy me! But yeah.. Left at 7 to go SGH to visit Tom. His last day in the hospital and I was so shocked to see him! It's been more than a year since I last saw him and he has lost so much weight! He's so so so so skinny now and he's already skinny to begin with. Saw the pic of his infected wound. Wayne & Benjamin happened to come 1...
