busy busy busy
Tuesday, March 28, 2006

Had been really really busy mann. Work gotta rush in office, and also at home.. almost no space to breathe.. luckily i rest on saturday.. sunday im working at home.. eww! but well.. its well worth. for the future! LOL

Anyway, finally bought my shades!!! at 15.90 ONLY!!! at isetan. muahahah.. good buy! MNG glasses cant fit me recently.. and i dont know why..maybe cos most of their shades are plastic frames.. whereby the shape of the shades cant fit my face.. if can fit, the size of the specs always hit my cheeks.. eww. so i turned to isetan. Bought it when YT is with me .. hiak hiak.. :D frameless shades, with black gradient lens.

Went IKEA with my family yesterday morning.. finally bought a book shelf!!! yes.. FINALLY after staying here for a month plus.. im so sick of the cartons still lying around my room. with a super messy wardrobe (gotta fix more storage space in). bought a medium sized lamp.. wanted to buy the big one though, but too expensive. so it's alright :D still looks great, and can light up that part of the room which is now quite dark. x.x

Got a floor protector mat too.. i didnt want it .. but dad insist.. so.. err.. ok lo. i think its very expensive ah.. 69 bucks for a protector ?!! i rather buy carpet, at least it's good looking. anyway, bought that as well..

Will be going another time prob mid april to settle storage boxes to keep my barang barang useless-but-still-want stuff.

Have to really save mann..

Will post pictures when i settle everything. *breathes in*

MOS
Sunday, March 19, 2006

Question: Do I reeeeaaallly look like somebody who club?

Hmm.. when I first joined APE, they asked me if i club, i said no. They were shocked. then last friday, went MOS with jul and claurene, met their friends, knowing that its my first time in a club, they were quite shock too. as in, dont believe. -.-

Anyway, it was my first experiene in a club - with people. HAHAHA .. went zouk before, but it's for shooting..so not counted..It's really a nice place, as in nice interiors. Always see people taking beautiful pictures in there, wanted to see with my own eyes! yikes! looks good mann.. it's really impressive.

Was there for the top 50 bachelors organised by CLEO. Not bad, quite a few cuties there.. but my favourite among them is still the one with goatee.. muahhha.. another cutie is claurene's cutie.. the mi mi yan. some of them are attractive in their performances.. the erotic dancing (lap dancing and dirty dancing were quite erotic x.x), singing, dancing.. etc. Esp like the guy who sang 'sway'. earned lots of screams from the floor! Another performance that earned lots of screams is the striptease section..LOL.. all the girls are se pei pei.

It was a fun event afterall.. but the goatee and mi mi yan didnt win. Thanks to Jul, who got the ticket from her friend, so we can see guys. LOL.

but then again, my main motive is to experience what is CLUB. and to see the interiors of MOS.. the plus point would be can see guys.

The music in the club is super loud. and the lights super shiny, super blinking. when u see people dance, it's like stop motion. -_- was pulled by claurene's friend and jul to the dance floor. but i still dance like stickman without joints. stiff like hell. maybe not drunk enough. LOL. oh ya, tried Whiskey rock. wth.. bitter mann.. gave half of the glass to claurene the jiu gui LOL but luckily got stickman claurene with me also.. we're both very stiff..HAHA

----
Poor Tom lying at home, with a sprained ankle.. but on saturday, he managed to walk normally with some control already..hur hur hur. our plan is 2 weeks from now. SO EXCITED.

I'M A HAPPY GIRL!
Sunday, March 12, 2006

What describes a woman's 'happy girl'?

1. Meet boyfriend for a date.
2. Shopping spree.
3. Meet up with girlfriends

Other than that, nothing else i guess. LOL. okay, the happiness today is no. 2 - shopping spree. not exactly a spree..but.. happiness. HAHAHA.. went out with mummy to toa payoh to shop.. the main motive is actually to go to the furniture sales at turf club..but when we reached toa payoh..we shopped -_- u know, women alwys forget their motives when they see other stuff that is more appealing.

It's amazing what toa payoh has. It's sort of our first time there. they got ALL sorts of shops and cafes and whatever. ALL. you name it. i was AMAZED. and it's very near to my place..so next time shui shui bian bian can ask claurene out to toa payoh already..LOL.

Mommy bought me a necklace from SKJewellery. It's super classy and gorgeous can! it's meant for my 21st birthday present actually :D Thank you mummy! hee! *wide wide grin*

That enough can give me happiness already.. i bought a giodarno basic tee too, and a pair of studs for my 2nd and 3rd ear hole. hur. and yesterday bought 2 pairs of ear rings at 2 bucks each at boon lay interchange. GOOD BUYS!!! :D Okay, i really have to save. and scrimp and save and scrimp this month. so that's all im going to buy. i buy them cos they're cheap that's all.

Had a really pleasant shopping trip with mom. not that she buy me necklace so i say nice arh.. but seldom she's not frustrated on sundays.. and we seldom go out together..

The best thing is that when we go out, we will always lose our way. why??? cos she thinks i know, i thought she know. -.- then??? we assume we're following each other.. i assume she know, i follow her, she assume i know, she follow me.. the blind leadng the blind.. then after walking till the end of the mall, my mom will ask me "ey? why u bring me here??" then i'll be shock and say "ah?? i was following you" then she will say she's following me -_-

Brillant. We're REALLY mother and daughter relationship. LOL. of the same kind.

----

Met up with tom yesterday. Attended his cousin's wedding dinner. The bride is gorgeous! ok u will say every bride is gorgeous.. but she's pretty even when she's not a bride (in photos). and his cousin not bad looking too. anyway, that's not the point.. lol..

Was feeling quite awkward there though.. I feel very out of place.. but luckily tom is with me, so im ok :D his father side feels like my father side.. the person they dont know, they dont really bother.. HAHAHA.. yeah. except for the grannies generation..they'll be "oooooooh" then start to shake hands and smile smile smile.. i guess that generation of teochews are more 'hao ke' (welcoming).

Anyway, yea, quite a nice event though.. cos can dress up.. hee hee.. and meeting new people in his family.. hur.

----
Just got to know a new website to keep track of my menstral cycle. very convenient.. got the info off from the forum.. useful! hee. Keep track of your period i always aga aga.. and them sometimes forgotten about it .. x.x good website. (not as in appearance)

ok time to lie on my bed and sleep.

It's Buble's time.
Friday, March 10, 2006

Listening to buble's cd now, got the music from Mechie. hee. nice. full of jazzzzyyyy mood tonight again :D Switched off my television, switched to orange lights, turned on the speakers, and jazz up my room. oh. Short of a set of 5.1 surround system. else, it'll be perrrrrrrrrrfect. Nice mood anyways. :)

It's always nice to enjoy nights like that.. with the cool air, laid back in my purple room. *happiness*

You know what makes jazz so sexy and so attractive? Maybe i dont understand jazz so well, but it certainly gives me the very relax feeling, be it modern jazz, slow jazz or whatever. It always have this unpredictable rhythm that is so fun, so swinging, and so relaxing. If you've hated jazz, do try to listen to one piece attentively. there're lots more to it than you think ;)

----
Anyway, Tom has started to blog again, if you're interested in reading his. so it's time to visit some day ya.. :D

----
The 'storm' in the office is somehow.. gone? I guess so. and hopefully it really is. I guess its really a serious misunderstanding, like urm.. i have my views you have your views kind of thing.. it's.. hard to understand, that's why its a misunderstanding -_-

----
It'll be a real nice weekend. :) as each week passes, I'm getting happier everyday. and more excited. hee! yup, and yet to meet up with chingling and my yuan ting. Yup, i'm yearning to meet naima too.. hopefully her relationship is more or less stable now.. you know, sometimes a person seem so hard on the outside, but is so fragile on the inside. life.

----
My wardrobe is darn messy. the same old messy me. Ever since i TRIED to be neat (since pri school alright), it always fail. i do have to accept that im a messy person. HAHA.that's why i need hidden cabinets. all my stuff are spammed across the wardrobe, tables, boxes.. yikes. i need cabinets! my room is still not in shape yet.

----
it's 11.55pm. im uber sleepy mann.. but im so attached to the jazz mood now. seriously cant explain how much i love the mood now.. but imagine you're in a pub, with everyone talking and laughing, relaxing on the couches, high stools. but you're oblivious to the surroundings.. you can only hear bits of the noise, and bulk of the smooth jazz music.. with dimmed lights, lying on the shoulder of a friend, or your loved ones. holding a glass of icy chilled drink. aww. the surrounding is cold, but your heart is warm.

Behind the singer's vocal, there's soft piano.. complementing the voice. the sound of piano, slight drums, just to give the song some beats, gentle trumpet during certain timings of the song.. relax your mind.. lay back, close your eyes, enjoy. :)

Ok there's quite a few stuff i wanna write today.

Hmm, ok work first. hahaha. A quarrel took place last evening after i left office!! it's quite shocking. Not shocking that they're quarreling, err, quite shock la, but that's not the shock-est. We were more shock by the words that they shot out from their mouth. O.O

Anyway, today they didnt talk to each other. Hopefully it'll be over soon. Mik was sandwiched between them.. hmm.. as a man.. i think maybe he regretting getting so many girls in the company.. HAHAHAHAHA! ok, anyway mik tried to solve it, by being diplomatic. but maybe that's not the best solution to it as suggested, many think he should just make a stand and decide how to solve the problem. ok hopefully its over soon! cos they're neighbours!! sigh.

----
next... Hmm did a mock up yesterday, it's the THIRD mockup i've been doing for this company. rejected by client. But they actually like the first one i did.. but the big boss dont like it..so.. redo. and redo. x.x hopefully this will be over soon too. gotta do some edit tmr.

----
Weekends. Went town with tom for lunch, and he suggested pepper lunch. YAY!! (claurene dont kill me, not i dont wanna eat on that day, it's cos im going home for dinner i cant eat too much for 'snack' x.x) Cos i've gone shopping during the weekday with jul and claurene, so didnt really shop on saturday.

Tired.
Thursday, March 02, 2006

My eyes are so tired, dry, and tired and tired and tired. Today finally handed up the flash mockup. So stress up last 2 days and today can! I even dreamt about it -_- wth. anyway, ytd, the static mockup was approved by the apes at 5pm. Did half of the flash ytd, and managed to complete by 345pm (dead-date 4pm). Did abit of amendments, and tahdah! approved by the apes. sent to the client already. so pray hard for the approval. HEE.

Talking about tired.. Tom is definitely more worn out than me! working late + frustrations + unreasonable treatment + file cannot work + alot more. x.x hope his nightmare will be gone soon. that'll be when he goes back to IDD. :) keep going!

looks like multimedia is not the way to go. why? COS WE ALWAYS HAVE TO LISTEN TO CLIENTS. you may say that oh, cos its commercial arts, so you'll have to listen to the client. on the other hand, if u think of fashion design, interior design, they dont really listen to the client, except getting the general style and direction to go about designing it. ok, it might be what I think only. HAHAH not sure about the truth though.

anyway, that's the reason why multimedia is tough.. cos it's all about how much and how many changes clients want. arghh.

okay, anyway. yesterday i tried the mosquito repellant. it works :D but then.. a grasshopper hopped in -_- got my bro to catch it and release it outside.. so in the end i didnt open the windows to sleep either. x.x
