Sending off...

I've learnt that there are some people whom I should not waste my time and effort on arranging to meet. It never works out.. Dept lunch with Ed gor today, treat given by Lyn. Ate at Soup Restaurant and had Lo Hei. My 4th Lo hei for the year. :) Month end kept me busy from morning til exactly 6pm. Half an hour before I left office for the day. YAY!!!! So happy! Monday will be busy but in a good way. :p Rushed to Plaza Sing after work, rushed to Made with Love shop then dashed to Carrefour. Everywhere were long queues!!!!!!!!! ARGH!!! Just when I'm rushing for time! Then the MRT refused to come! My hands nearly broke from carrying all the bags of stuff. :( Finally arrived at Novena. Managed to spend a few moments with Eeyore before he went to board the bus there. My very 1st time sending Eeyore off.. I've picked him up at the airport before but not sending him off on a bus or at the airport. Felt a wave of sadness as the bus drove off.. All alone now.. Cabbed home, called Eey...

Babyface - Everytime I Close My Eyes

Some things I don't understand, but I shall not dwell. Chirpy today coz I've recovered! With some TLC from Eeyore.. Tugging at his shirt sleeve as I slept while he used his lappie to console his friend over msn. Having him carry me around the room without having to walk a single step. :) Dinner with Aunt Marg, Alvin & Philip at Ichiban Boshi @ Toa Payoh Central. My treat coz it was Philip's bday. He treated Alvin & I to lunches and dinners when we were in Shanghai. :D So today's my turn. Hehe. Eeyore and I have found a song for us. We are both stuck and listening to this song on repeat mode, so I've made it my blog song. :p I shall be disturbing him a lot tonite coz he's gonna go KL again tomorrow evening. :( Another 3 days without him.. Babyface - Everytime I Close My Eyes Girl it's been a long, long time comin', yes it has But I, I know that it's been worth the wait It feels like springtime in winter It feels like Christmas in June It feels...

Proof

Left office at 5.30pm today coz I wasn't feeling too good. Charlie gave the go-ahead coz he said he needed me for month end and he would rather I rest well today. Hahahaha. Slept in office during lunch, slept the moment I got into the cab, slept after I came home and showered. Yes, that's how tired I am. :( Stupid time of the month came.. Proof that I'm not preggie. Haha. But it seriously tired me out this time round. Sighz... It's nice to have Eeyore back! He's been taking care of me since he got home. :) Nice to lie in his arms, having him hug me and carry me around. The love and care that I feel and see.. I have to treasure these 2 days with him before he leaves for KL again on Friday. I'm gonna be a lonely gal again then..

2nd Day of CNY 2009

Headache came!!! Took panadol, feeling more alive now. Sighz.. Why am I plagued with such stuff these 2 days?? Hmmz.. Played with Beth today while looking after gram. Pity I can't meet up with Leo today or to join Sid for martini happy hour. Beth can be quite sweet and cute at times. :) Took some pics with her. My cutesy princessy little niece. My aunts are really funny. Coz of the flu yesterday and the headache today, the weakness of my body system, they asked if I was pregnant! OMG!! Faint.. No, I am not pregnant and I will NOT have a shotgun marriage! Hahaha. Pls don't worry!! I think they just want me to get married.. Hahahaha. Just had a chat with SK di.. He's learning ballroom dancing and asked if I wanna join too. Hmmz.. Worth a thought and some consideration. :p Eeyore's on the way back!! But still at JB. Sighz.. Anyway, I think I might sleep before he's back coz I've jus recovered from my headache. :) Nitez!

Sarah~!

A very sleepy and tiring day, coupled with more than 50 sneezes from 9pm til 10+pm simply made it 100 times worse. As I was playing mahjong with my family, I just kept sneezing endlessly, blowing my nose non-stop. ARGH!!! This is happening to me again! And Eeyore's still not back yet.. Sighz.. Met up with Sidney today for a short while together with Beth (my niece) & Sarah (his dog). Sarah's soooo cute!!! But she barked at us when she saw us so Beth became frightened. But before she went home, I asked if she wanted to play with Sarah again and she said yes. Hahaha. So cute! She kept sticking next to me and wanting me to feed her and play with her. She can be so fun at times! Webcam-ing with Eeyore now. Hehehe! And chatting with Sidney on cooking stuff. :p COOL! Think I'm gonna sleep pretty soon. Need more rest for my flu to recover.. Nitez~!

Happy Chinese New Year 2009!

Happy Chinese New Year!!! Passed 12 midnight already so it's officially the 1st day of the Chinese New Year! But sadly, this year, I'm not allowed to celebrate. Coz daddy has passed away less than 1 year. :( Anyway, I'm missing Eeyore.. Especially since I'll be at Aunt's place for the next few days and he's not going with me. Sighz.. But.. My horrible bf is happily gambling that he has forgotten the existence of me. How sad... :_( Boring and I'm supposed to stay awake for superstitious reasons. So... Watching some not very nice HK drama now. Might sleep around 2am I think..

CNY Gathering with the Belles 2009

Image
Friday (23 Jan 2009) A boring day at work with nothing to do. Dept had lunch together with the exception of Mahesh who had a talk with Lynette and boss. Back to office to have CCO walkaround, giving us ang paos and mandarin oranges. After which, I peeled the remaining 4 oranges for the dept to eat. I'm an auntie.. 4pm - I went to buy coffee and tea for the dept as all of us didn't have the afternoon cuppa. Being an auntie again.. Left office at 6pm. COOL! Home before 7.30pm. Prepared and got ready for our CNY gathering with the belles at my place. :) Anne & Rendy came 1st, followed by Jean and Dilun, then Stef & Sid and lastly, Von. We had satay, chicken wings, Lo Hei, Vodka, 2 bottles of wine - Moscato D'Asti & a peach wine bought from Turkey, a small bottle of champagne from Bimbadgen which I bought from the vineyard in Sydney, desserts made by Sid & Stef - orange meringue & roulade. Delicious desserts, fantastic company & lotsa fun!!! The mess...

Nothing Is Fair In This World

Unfairness, unjustice I cannot accept Unhappy That's how I feel It doesn't make sense It doesn't matter anymore I'm getting numb I'm sick and tired of the excuses Performance Is never taken into consideration Hardwork Is take for granted What else can I say I have said it all Time and time again Year after year What's the point of asking for my opinion When nothing is ever done What's the point of all these talks When it is falling on deaf ears Don't gimme compliments Don't lift me to the sky Only to let me fall Hard and fast Unwanted tears shed In public and in private The effort for the last 2 years Gone down the drain Looking back I wonder if I made the right decision 3 opportunities awaited me then And this is the road that I chose Only to suffer All these pain and heartache Only to torture myself I feel so stupid Disappointment Let down Depressed Fallen to the ground Thank you to Cher, Eeyore & Irene for listening to me complain again. I...

Undeserving..

Outlook in office down since 11am. Sucks!!! But it was funny having Eeyore helping me reply the mails and chatting with the girls & Sidney. :p Tonnes of mails flying around trying to organise a gathering before CNY. Hahaha. But I'm glad that we're doing it and meeting up again. Received the official letter for my bonus. Happy to see $$ coming into my account coz I need it but something happened and if my hunch is correct, it's not gonna make me happy. In fact, I already felt so pissed that I finished a packet of prawn crackers and dug into my tub of ice cream. Met Eeyore and Cher for dinner at AMK Hub. Decided to eat Dian Xiao Er to satisfy my craving for duck. We had so much fun and such a good laugh that it totally cleared me of my unhappiness. We even had role playing.. I'm a conventional bitch and Cher was the rich, spoilt, pampered brat. Hahahaha. Eeyore couldn't stand us at all!! :D Much as I feel that some things are not worth it, I can't help feeling...

Puzzles!

Busy day @ work in the evening but free in the morning. Hmmz.. Anyway, dinner with VY at Marina Square Hong Kong Cafe. Good company, good chat. He's a really smart guy!!! Playing the game on my DS that involves solving lots of puzzles and he could answer the 2 Maths puzzles so quickly! No wonder he's from RI & RJC. Can't stand it!! Eeyore ended work late, didn't get to meet his friends for dinner. Back at his own place @ RV tonite to pack his stuff to bring back to KL for the CNY weekend. Gonna be a boring weekend for me. :( Will treasure the next 2 days with him before he goes back for the next 5 days.. Gonna continue playing Facebook game for a while more before I knock out alone tonite..

Received the announcement of my bonus today. Just thankful that at least I had a bit of bonus though there's no increment nor promotion. Also grateful to still have my job and not have to worry about supporting myself. :) But still broke... :_( Lots of fun & laughter tonite with Eeyore. We kept laughing and being stupid since dinner @ A-Roy Thai (Funan). The Thai food there is really quite good. Worth a try though portion is not that big. Found the garskin for my lappie which will be paid for by Eeyore coz he was playing with a stupid coin last nite and scratched my lappie. :p Came home, changed curtains with Cher, took down hers and hung it up again, washed curtains, changed bedsheet and quilt cover, washed clothes, hung up clothes, washed clothes again. Pending the 2nd load of clothes to finish for me to hang up before I head off to dreamland. Tomorrow I shall wash the bedsheet and quilt cover that I changed out. Becoming a washing freak!! Love it when everything's ok wit...

Family likes Eeyore..

Friday (16 January 2009) Lunch-ed with Mahesh and Charlie. My Exotics partners. Charlie, being the checker, wanted to give Mahesh and I a treat.. To discuss about work. It was ok. Charlie's an ok person coz I was quite alright with him since Control days. Why we needed the lunch discussion was apparently coz Mahesh and I were being complained about. By our own big boss for not escalating issues fast enough. What made us disagree is that Mahesh and I don't feel the need to send mails or call front office people everyday to chase them for things due 2 days later. It is irritating to do that and the person receiving the mails or calls will get irritated as well. It's stupid to us, but we told Charlie that if that's what the boss wants, then we'll just do it. STUPID! Overall, lunch was pretty ok where we spent most of the time chatting about normal stuff and not work. Hehehe. Whatever.. Anyway, lunch was at Fish & Co. Not too bad. :) Met up with Celine who came back...

Miscommunication

I must set a reminder to bring my mobile to work. I keep forgetting to bring it out with me and I get into so much trouble! Sighz... Seriously spoilt my whole day. Supposed to meet my insurance agent, Shirleen, for lunch to sign my policy and get back my files. But coz I forgot to bring my mobile and I couldn't remember her number offhand, I had to go thro the trouble of calling the customer service hotline, verifying so many details before I could get her number. But thankfully I managed to contact her and do what was needed. Had an argument with Eeyore today. It was sooo stupid. The fault of not having a mobile. He said to meet at control station but he was waiting downstairs at the trains area!!! ARGH!!!!!! Big time miscommunication causing me to stand and wait for him for more than an hour. :_( Now my feet hurt!!! Finally came home to a home cooked dinner by Cher, inclusive of herbal chicken soup, omelette and broccoli with mushrooms. Delicious!!!!!! I ate a whole bowl of rice ...

Short Term Memory

Glad to be there for Cher today. :) Went shopping after work at Raffles City. Bought a top & a dress plus lots of grocery shopping where I bought 3 cans of potato chips!! Muahahaha. Pig out!! Cher came home and immediately started boiling herbal chicken for tomorrow's dinner. Drool!! Can't wait!!! :D Had a dream last nite.. A dream where I met someone. :) Quite a nice dream actually. Suffering from super short term memory these days. Don't recall what I've said nor where I've put my things. Growing 1 year older does have its repercussions. Hahaha. Bee is booking tix for a Chinese theatric play on 31 Jan. Zoey booked tix for JJ concert on 28th March. My friends these days like to watch concerts and plays. Hahaha.

Red Cliff 2

Jus finished watching Red Cliff 2 with XZ. Damn good show!!!! I'm gonna buy both parts of the show and keep them. It's soooo nice!!! Action plus comedy at the same time. For someone like me who's never known a shit about The Three Kingdoms nor liked it before, the show attracted me a lot. :)))) Been another boring day at work. How long is this going to continue for?? Feels like I'm wasting my time sitting in the office. Sighz.. Wanna thank Jean for sharing my happiness with me. :p Thanks babe!!

2 words - I'm hungry..

Did major spring cleaning in office today. I have never seen my office desk look so bare before. :( Kinda depressing to see it like that but I guess.. I just have to get used to it. Cabbed home with 4 big bags of stuff from office that nearly broke my arms. Cab driver got a shock seeing the amount of things I was carrying. Haha. 4 years of working at the same place.. That's the amount of stuff that u can get. Started packing the minute I reached home. All the way til 9+ when I felt hungry. It's really damn good to have Cher staying here. She cooked dinner for me coz I was starving!!! :)))) Thanx Cher!!! Packed til 11pm and I'm sooo knackered. Pending the laundry to be done now. Eeyore has just given me a very very very good back massage that has made me feel on top of the world. It's the little things that he do to make me touched. Like helping with the packing yesterday, giving me a surprise massage when I'm tired out. :p And last nite when the lights were off and ...

Lousy Friend

Slept in til 2.30pm today. :) Such a wonderful sleep. Love sleeping in!!! Showered & Eeyore and I headed to Plaza Sing to buy papers and stuff for his dad's bday card. Had to wreck my brains hard to think of a design coz I dunno his dad at all. Finally decided to do a simple design. Bought the paper, the deco stuff and ate dinner at Manhattan Fish Market at 6.30pm. Before dinner, we even ate British Takeaway - Cheesy Curry Chicken and Ice Monster - Mixed Fruits with Milk on Shaved Ice. Yummy!!! Pig out!! Bumped into Suzhen at Plaza Sing. Haven't seen her since graduating from college. She's married already! We used to be such close friends but a stupid incident in college caused our friendship to end. :( Glad to see her again! Will probably meet up for dinner or coffee. I hope we do! But it led me to think.. If I have been a good friend. I guess.. Not.. Sighz... I have lost quite a lot of friends along the way. I try hard to keep in contact with close friends but it...

Ip Man

Woke up at 10am just to go for rebonding, colour and highlight for my hair. Amazingly, Eeyore woke up before I did. :) Hugged me so tight just to wake me up. Bleah! Disturb my beauty sleep. Saw a msg from Leo at 2.43am asking if I'm ok.. Not sure if he sent to the correct person. Replied his sms asking if he sent to the correct person but no reply from him. Sighz.. This guy ahz.. At Kef's salon from 12.15pm to almost 5pm. Slightly less than 5 hours today. Considered quite good coz normally it takes me about 6 hours to get my hair done. :p Eeyore cut his hair too! And bought me lunch from Subway while I was still sitting there. Thank God for my DS Lite to keep me company throughout the whole hair session. Hehehe. And of coz, Eeyore was there with me. ^.^ Took a break at McCafe & had Himalayan Tea Frappe with whipped cream before heading to Aunt Mic's place for Ann's bday dinner. Damn!! I really eat a lot!! Luckily I'm smart enough to wear baggy clothes. Haha. Ate...

Eeyore's Uni Gathering

Another kinda boring day at work. Heard rumours that there will be another round of cutting next Friday. Worried.. Gonna start packing my room this weekend so that I can bring stuff home from office to keep. Hahaha. Keeping my fingers crossed that I won't be the one who gets axed. Left office at 6.30pm. Walked around City Link & Suntec waiting for Eeyore to finish work. Headed to Yio Chu Kang to meet his Uni friends for dinner. Their gathering. Very friendly people. :) Chatted and had dinner at the same time. Left after dinner and they arranged the date for the next gathering on the spot!! Home early on a Friday nite. Thought of packing my room but not sure if I should start now. Hmmz... Thinking of going to register for my basic driving test tomorrow morning. Lemme consider my options...

Xavier - Friends of 6 Years!

Congrats to Evans on his ROM tomorrow! :) Visited the new office building site at Changi DistriPark today. Soooo far away!! Sighz.. Sorta like a dept outing. Quite fun though. Hahaha. Food there.. Terrible! Wonder how I'm gonna survive. Thank god there's Harry's bar right across our office building. WOOHOO!!!!!!!!! It's gonna be Happy Hour everyday!!! :p The only reason why I don't mind the move. Hahaha. Another very quiet day. Been like that the whole week. :( Tomorrow's KTV session with my dealers have been postponed to after CNY. :( Vic wanted to ask me for dinner on Sat but I've got family gathering. Sorry!!! Met Xavier for dinner at Toa Payoh Central. Haven't seen him for 6 years!!!! He's put on weight!!! But still as nice and gentlemanly as ever. The best part is, we arranged for dinner on Tues and really kept to our promise of meeting immediately. :) Speak of the devil!! Vic jus sms-ed me for my MSN address. Hahaha. :p Meeting Eeyore's par...

Olive Vine

Keep feeling tired these days.. Not sure why. Sighz... Cher's granny's in hospital. Hope she's ok and gets well soon. Went City Hall to buy Ann's bday pressie. Walked around Robinson's and saw soooo many things that I like and wanna buy!! Shopaholic me!! But refrained from buying anything for myself. :( How sad... Dinner at the Raffles City Food Court at the 3rd level. Looks really classy and cool. Tried the Western food stall - Olive Vine. Not very fantastic. Soup was kinda bland and the spaghetti had so much garlic.. :( Fell asleep on the bus on the way home.. Ash bullied me online.. HMPH!

Tampopo

Regret sleeping at 1am this morning. Am so tired now. Sighz... Rushed around buying lunch for the department today for meeting. Kinda fun coz it was a good reason to be excused from the normal day to day work. Hahaha. Dinner with XZ at Tampopo. Had Black Pig Shabu Ramen, the black pig cutlet and Umeshu. :) Good meal! Walked around Meidi-ya and bought Japanese Cafe Latte and 2 small bottles of Japanese wine. :p Home. Hope XZ gets well soon. :)

Little Nonya

Unbelievably, I came home and watched Little Nonya last episode on tv when I hardly watch the show. All my knowledge of the show came from what Cher, Jac my tenant and Jean told me. The show is nice! Quite close to real life and the sufferings of women in the past. Good show! Been soooo long since I ever watch a Singapore drama. Listening to Bosco's CD now. Rushed to HMV to get. :) Glad to have bought it. Nothing much to do now. Should I play game, watch DVD or just laze around? Hmmz.. Should I play PC game or Xbox game? Hmmz... What should I do now?? I'm bored.. Feel like disturbing Leo but not sure if he's awake. Eeyore's gone to bed already. BORING!!! I wanna disturb people!!

Green Forest, My Home

Slept at 6am, woke up at 8am and finally fell asleep at 10am. Thanks Leo, for keeping me company thro sms-es when I couldn't sleep.. When I closed my eyes and saw horror scenes from that stupid show. :) Thanx soooo much!! Finally woke up at 4pm. Felt tired but good. Then began the endless watching of my Taiwanese drama - Green Forest, My Home. A prince and a knight.. That's what she had.. Do I have the same? I'm not so lucky I guess.. Nevertheless, I am thankful for what I have. I am.. So as this last episode that I'm watching ends, lemme jus be happy with what I have and not be greedy.. Not ask for anymore. As this show ends, I'll be back to face reality. For now, lemme just indulge in the show and my fantasy..

Happy New Year 2009!

Image
31 December 2008 As the clock struck 12 midnight, I had a pleasant surprise of 4 people holding a cake and walking into my room. Thanks to Eeyore for buying me a NYDC cheesecake (my 3rd bday cake for the year) and for the rest of my housemates for the pleasant surprise! :) No pics taken coz I was in my nightie already. Hehe. Slept at 2am with plenty of bday sms-es, MSN msgs and Facebook msgs. Thanks everyone!! I'm deeply and greatly touched!! Worked as usual with lots of Happy Bday being said to me in office. Thanks guys! At 10.30am, this arrived.. For me! Beautiful!! Lunch-ed with the ladies at Pu Tien Restaurant for my bday treat. Thanks gals!!! Ed gor told me some stuff that made me kinda sad and disappointed but it was a lesson learnt. Trust and respect broken but made me stronger on my bday. Ed gor will still be my pillar of strength and the one I turn to no matter what happens. :) What surprised me was that the whole office sang me a bday song with a bday cake (my 4th and las...
