Monday, August 11, 2008 ^@^@^ Start of the Week ^@^@^ Today's monday. And it turned out pretty good!! or maybe it's juz an Aries thingy- think things are good when things ain't. Anywayz, Dad bought durians again!!! =) Introducing Mountain Cat King!!  Sweet and oh-so-creamy!! YUM!! Recce was barking for more!! ------------------------------------------------------------ My manager must think that i'm crazy- i invited her to share durians with me as she drove me home... lolz, think she drove alittle faster after that sudden and awkward invitation.. i was juz thinkin abt what i'm gonna do and wanted to share... ARGH. See what little slp does to me.. Urgh. Think b4 i speak mah... Sigh. anywayz, i'm blogging bcos i got let off early today- 130am! =) thanks to CS for the luck! =)  Sunday, August 10, 2008 *#*#* Another Week passed..... *#*#* One more week has passed. And i'm worned out. But v v thankful to those that aided me, supported me and gave me good times to lift me up.. especially XM, thankyou so much for always encouraging and cheering me up whenever i needed a listening ear. It means so much to me.. and it really gets me thru the day. Below are some pics-  first row is from my day with mom when i went to see a doc.. i miss being able to go shopping with mom.... 2nd was last sunday when i met up with xiu mei, yanyi and sirong to watch Dark Knight - a v v good movie, but alittle depressing.. and i'm v sad heath ledger killed himself.. his performance was perfection and so.. beautiful? -After the outing, met my family for dinner at Wan Hao Cantonese Resturant where i had one of the most extravagant meals in my life!! (they ordered b4 i arrived, so when the bill came i was truly shocked!) the 2nd row last pic is their desert - dragon fruit with lemongrass jelly and red wine ice. i can eat dozens of that and get happily drunk hahaha. Last row is Mac donald's breakfast! dad insisted i eat breakfast, so we packed and i brought it to the office to eat.. but that morning i was so busy, left the burger till evening..And the last pic was taken today (Sunday) when i went out with matt and micheal to celebrate matt's bday - salmon @ fish & co ~ v delicious! Speaking of matt's bday...  HAPPY BIRTHDAY MATT!! everything i want to say is in that card. Ganbatte!~ all the best and have fun! Oh yar.. here's a pic we saw at fish & co @ Paragon... And note the little script about the legs.... =)  Cool huh? Micheal tricked me into confirming it with the staff.. and the chef confirmed it's true! haha Saturday, August 02, 2008 $#$#$ Work & Eat $#$#$ I've been working till around 2am, mon - fri.. work full-day on sats too... 2 weeks le.. and alot of spots on my face. cui. haiz. but, at least there's food!! =) grow fat! hahaha also cui. haiz.  ate breakfast with bro and dad b4 work at the 24hr roti prata! it's oily and fatty. i aim to have more breakfasts with bro and dad!! EVEN if it means less slp. bcos it's super worth it! ~seldom see them these days... i didn't see my bro for the whole of my first week at work!!! - i come home, he slp le.. i leave the house, he's still slping. Dad stays up to fetch me home for the first few days, heng got managers appear and they stay east-side too, then safer for me to take taxi.. There was one day when dad fetched me to work, i was so tired.. when i alighted, i said "Good night!" (as opposed to "good day!")... and dad actually replied "Good night!" too!! wahahahaha! he's tired too cos he stays up to fetch me.. sometimes it's only 2 hours of slp.. Nonono.. cannot let dad fetch le. Grown up le leh... Must say my first job is quite.. interesting. V long hours.. and at times, very frustrating.. i hate feeling lost; and i hate inefficiency. Everyone's super busy with their own work, and i paiseh to ask and bug them... but i'm very lucky that i have nice and helpful seniors! =) Never have they made me feel stupid, thou i think some of my qns are quite... stupid. hahaha. Lack of slp really makes me dumb and blur. tsk... But food-wise... hahahaha..  We order in for dinner- pizza (the French brand one...); zi cha (got quite afew times.. and quite nice too!); and there's ASTON!! @ NUS canteen which i loooove their crispy fried fish!, Sakae sushi (healthy and nice!).. then there's the sugar rolls which mom recommended from Polar! -- for those who don't know, these are the BEST in the world!! =) really soft.. and nice.. the last pic is @ lunch which one of my managers- Yanying, treated the whole team to.. it's some ex place lorz! not hawker center.. and those are lovely juicy fried mushrooms!! they remind me of those at Stuart Anderson's Black Angus *gosh, yum* but, the main point of that pic is the chic branded wallet beside it hor.. my senior's. lolz, okie now we know who to rob =) Saturday, July 19, 2008 ^@^@^ This week.. ^@^@^ 1. Went back to school to collect convo stuff with XM, Yanyi and SiRong- ate beloved xue hua bing @ can2 again!! haha happy! 2. self-made ice katang with almonds, walnuts, sweet corn and brown syrup~ pretty huh? =p  3. Dad bought durians!!! v v happy! ate till sore throat. but still crazy abt them.. Recce loves durians too! i eat 6.5 per night, he eats 0.5. *bleah* hahahaha 4. Went out with matt for dinner on fri night- ate at ichiban!! tt's one of the best tempura curry ever!! and their chawamushi is the BEST. %#%#% HAPPY BIRTHDAY RECCE!! %#%#% Recce's Bday is 17th July He's 4 years old le~ how time flies!! Took the bus so that i could drop by US Doggy Bakery to get him his usual slice of bday cake! Clever boy knew that those boxes of stuff was for him- he was super excited when i came home- tail wagging wildly.. haha  Apart from the cake, bought him the cookies and a shep's pie which he absolute loves! *2nd pic is him waiting for me to finish singing happy bday la..* Wish Recce stays happy and healthy! ~my source of pride and joy!! Thursday, July 17, 2008 我知道我变漂亮了 "过去的批评嘲讽 (Let it go Let it go) Sunday, July 13, 2008 ^%^%^ EY Training in Penang ^%^%^ Start Work le!! EY sent us all to Penang =) Luckily to have great company~ Xiu Mei, Yanyi, Su Min, Choon Fong, Si Rong & Cindy! Penang didn't have much for us to play around, and training was boring.. but we survived on making our own fun ~ Movies & Kbox, Eat! Eat! Eat!... lolz  Food in Penang's CHEAP! haha We were fed like pigs too - there's breakfast (hotel buffet!) then morning tea break, then lunch, then evening tea break! after which immediately is dinner!! My group never ceased eating cos we ate to keep awake in training, BUT despite that, dinner was always a feast! I'm really happy bcos we ate Kim Gary's!! and cos we found BUBBLE TEA!! hahaha  Maybe 'cos haven't been used to listening to lectures, keep falling aslp during training!! our group was the ONLY group to bring in snacks to munch on.. Sour Plums, Sweets of all sorts, chocolates, etc. and i'm so happy that we juz thick-skinnedly continued with it, bcos it was really sooo hard to keep awake. During lunch, we would rush thru eating so that we could slip in 15 mins of nap in our rooms (training was thankfully, in the same hotel). But one day, we decided to take pics instead ~Yanyi and Sirong bought digicams, so we set timers and zi pai!! haha It started out rather decently...  Then..  =p Still left 1 more week of training. Then we leave to join our respective teams... Let's meet at least once a fortnight to gossip and shop! =) Friday, June 06, 2008 went out with my bro today and it was really fun!! i'll miss him dearly when he goes to london to study... What's disturbing now is the realization that i'm away from home so much this hol... it's almost.. too much. Taiwan, then now Italy & Bangkok for June, then soon after that will be Penang for work. My heart is heavy.. as if all i wanna do is to stay at home with Recce and watch tv, eat breakfast/lunch with my bro, walk Recce with Mom and eat dinner when Dad comes home... time is ticking away, counting seconds lost. there will not be a time like this anymore when i can have great long holidays... There will not be a chance for me to relive these moments.. simple things which fill me with great joy..... when bro goes overseas, when i start work- when our lives change. and i'm really sad, to b honest.. sad instead of excited. bcos i don't want things to change.. juz feel tt alot of things around me r happening beyond my reach, n making me lose alot of things tt matter to me.. and i know tt instead of feeling this way i should b treasuring them as in the present and now.. but the thought tt it's ending so soon.. juz... sad. =( |
