Ok. I've been very busy lately. Got a freelance web project from Jane. So that means I can earn more pocket money hehe. And I've been organising a Cutie Spree to order from them directly. That explains why I need extra pocket money, because I ordered 10 over items (which includes my sisters)and it costs more than $150. Omg. Burning a big hole in my pocket. So I've been controlling myself from spending $$ on clothes when I go out shopping nowadays. But I still spend on other things hehe, but not as much now so I guess that is an improvement?

Autumm collection from Cutie! Kawaii Nee!

(wanted to buy this, but it looks too winter look which I don't think is suitable in Singapore)

How I wished there is winter in Singapore and there will be more selection of clothes. >.<

Ok I will end here. Short it is but I will try to write more if I have the time.

Wah. Only when people complain would I write a new post on my blog. Ok, I've just finished watching the remaining episodes of jdrama Proposal Daisakusei. It was very touching. T.T. I recommend watching it! 4 out of 5 stars. And Yamapi was so Cuuutteee in the show! Normally I like watching JDrama's Gakusei Life and Jdrama consists of only 12 episodes so it's not as draggy as Kdrama. I still have 2 more jdrama that I've bought that is still waiting for me hehe...

A present for my friend. The reason that I'm posting this picture is not because I want to boast about buying a present for my friend but because "SOMEONE" said that the RIBBON that someone made was VERY NICE and she wanted to take a photo of it. I think I can also do some advertisement for PERLINI SILVER since that bracelet she was wearing was bought there.

Haha. Now is my time to brag about my NEW IPOD NANO! So thin and small compared to my previous IPOD MINI. I chose blue since my previous ipod was a pink one. A lot of them was asking me "Green is also nice, how come you didn't choose?" Why people keep asking me to take green? I know green is nice, but I just feel that blue and pink are the only outstanding colour for an ipod. My choice was actually getting a black but there is no black for a 4GB capacity.

Better don't brag too much. If not "SOMEONE" will said that I'm HARPING on my new IPOD again.

Some photos I took last week when I went with my parents to eat the 七月 dinner or feast. I won't say it's really a feast but what I like is to see them bidding the items. The highest amount to $2000 for a very big bottle of Wine which I think is around 4 litres.

My uncle and my cousin. She really likes taking photos. You can see from her pose that she was ready for this shot. haha.

This one was taken by my cousin. She saw my phone and wanted to take a photo of her father haha. After that, she spend most of the time playing the Java games in my handphone.

Ok. My update is done. I'm off to do my dad's stuff again. Ja ne.

Got a new IPOD NANO in exchange for my IPOD MINI under the Harvey Norman Warranty Claim. Of course, I still need to top up to get the new mp3 player. I topped up around half the price of the 4GB IPOD NANO.

I didn't know it was soooo small and flat when I took it out from the casing. So delicate as if I was holding an egg.

A picture of a security box which meiling told me to post. It was to put hard disks that is of "high confidentiality" which comes with a lock.

HANDSOME RIGHT? AHHHH I wish I can meet such a handsome Fedex Guy. I think he is from Hong Kong because of the background. Alot of people are saying there are alot of handsome guys in Hong Kong. So next time you know where to go for holiday right? Haha.

Although J-pop was not popular now but I'm still watching J-drama because of my sis's influence haha. Currently I'm watching this J-drama called Proposal Daisakusen. The lead actor was my sis's favourite idol. Yamapi or Yamashita Tomohisa. Handsome right? I was shocked when my sis said he was the same age as me haha.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

I still have 2 or 3 more J-dramas waiting for me to finish watching. I also recommend Hana Yori Dango (or chinese drama Meteor Garden). I can tell you that Meteor Garden sucks and Hana Yori Dango RULEZ! I think those people who like F4 will like to smack me because I really dislike them. >.<

As usual, I'm very addicted to online spree-ing. Already ordered SO MANY CLOTHES that I'm shocked at how much I've spent.

Some clothes designs that I've ordered:

Hmm. Is it alot? Haha. I still have more which I haven't shown yet. OMG! Why am I spending so much. My sis said my cupboard was piling more and more clothes like a mountain. EEKS.

Wednesday, August 22, 2007

Okok. I've been told by alot that I did not update my blog regularly. NOW, I'm going to update.

Let's start with last friday. Requested to go to Marina Square so that I could watch the fireworks display starting at 9pm.

It's a fireworks display from a spanish company. (Or so I read from the news). It's so nice! It disappears so fast from the night sky but at that instant it has captured my heart completely. I was so awed by it. The most beautifull thing I have ever seen.

难怪人家都说,美丽的东西都是短占的。因为它是短占的,所以才会更加珍惜,欣赏它。


If I would have watched fireworks everyday, I don't think I would be saying that it is the most beautiful thing.

The photos are not impressive. You have to be there to really see it. Of course, you have to wait for the next national day if you've missed it.

Today I felt like an auntie again. Went to this printing shop to print posters for my company. Because I was printing bulk, I bargain with the uncle or boss to give me a good price. Haha.

Took a taxi home because there were too many things to carry. The taxi driver was a malay uncle. The moment I set foot in his taxi, he started talking to me non-stop about his family, going holiday, how people mistaken him for being young,....poor uncle, i think he was too lonely driving taxi, no one talked to him haha.

Title: An Auntie Act

Mood:
>.<

Story:
I like to share this small incident with you which I feel like burying my head in the ground like an ostrich will do.

It all started when I saw this lovely pouch at Jurong Point Basement Pushcart. It has a few designs with different flowery designs. It's so sweet that I fall in love with it at first sight. Haha. The auntie approached me and said,

"啊, 有很多designs的,这个(holding at one of the pouches)已经是最后一个了"

I nodded to the auntie and said "ok". Then she told me the new ones are over at the side and what I'm looking at is the display set only.

After contemplating for some time with my sis, we decided to buy 3 pouches with different flowery designs each. 1 for myself, 1 for my sis and 1 for my friend (I had promised her to give her a pouch if I came across a nice one).

So I approached auntie and asked, "Auntie, 我要买三个, 有折扣吗?"

And the next thing auntie said, "Aiyoh, 小妹好心你啦!, 我已经卖的很便宜了, 还要折扣!"

Somemore, the way auntie said it was so sarcastic, it made me even more embarrased. A young lady who's asking "DISCOUNT!" from an auntie who in return critisize me!

My expression to her was giving a very nice smile but in my mind I was quite embarrassed by it. I felt very auntie at that very moment.

After that, I told the auntie that we wanted the 3. I even "self-help" myself to take the scissors and cut the string off the display stand. (I don't really mind actually)

After that she packed the items for us in a plastic bag. She said, "哇, 买三个啊, 三剑客 (Three musketeers)" =.= I really take my hat off her, she really has alot to comment right? I just gave her a smiling face, haha, yeah, haha.

好学不学, 去学auntie BARGAIN, and this is what I get. Hah.

SCREWED UP ONLINE SPREE

After ordering so many clothes online, not once did I encounter a spree-er who actually took our money and didn't bother to follow up with us after the items arrived. It's been hold-up for more than a month and everybody has been complaining about how they should contact this spree-er who was "irresponsible".

Managed to get her number from one of us who also ordered from this spree-er. I called her, sms her everyday starting from Aug 9 until now before she agreed to meet up to pass me the items.

I don't mean to bug her but I think it works right? (I told her I was DAMM DESPERATE to get my clothes!) Since I've finally able to get my stuff. Lol.

I don't mean to question her, maybe she was busy or she has family stuff to handle BUT without informing us about anything we will feel more suspicious and worried and thinking whether this is a "fraud case".

Tuesday, July 31, 2007

Ok. I admit that my blog has no design BUT someone said that my blog HAS NO CONTENT TOO! =.= Might as well I just close my blog since it has neither content nor design.

I just came back from my 5-day holiday from Malaysia - Pahang - Kuantan. It is the hometown of Ann Lee. She has been inviting me to visit her hometown since hmmm Poly? Since she was going back for a short trip, I think it's a good opportunity to take time off and relax. Hehe. (Also to escape from work)

She was going to study NUS soon so this trip back was to go back and relax before starting her new semester in August. SOOO GOOD! I WANT TO STUDY!!! (This is call PEER PRESSURE lol)

I think I will not be uploading the photos yet since Photobucket has been giving me problems now! Any recommendations to change to other free image hosting?

DAY 1 - Thur
Woke up at 7am in the morning. Left home at 7.30am. My father drove me to ICA Building where I will be meeting Ann Lee there. Took a short bus trip to the Bus Terminal where we were supposed to board the bus. The bus left the terminal at 9am. I can tell you that I've been eating junk food while in the bus. Potato chips, the famous fried Seaweed...my hotdog bread and ann's hot dog bread.

The bus stopped at a very old cafeteria for us to eat our lunch. I alight the bus and headed for the toilet! Haha. Ann lee and I decided not to eat at that place because the cafeteria looks old and dirty (who knows maybe you might get a stomachache).

The bus continued its journey. We talked, eat, read magazines and had a short nap to pass time. Finally we have reached our destination. It was around 5~6pm. Ann called his dad to come and fetch us back to her home.

Before we head for home, they went to a pasar malam to buy some food and had a cooling drink. Ann said the food was nice there. I bought Char Kuay Tiao for takeaway and Ann's mum bought Asam Laksa back for all of us to enjoy.

Ann Lee's parents look REALLY young. She said his dad was already reaching 70s. I was quite impressed that he's still as strong as 50s.

We reached Ann's home, dropped our luggage, had our food (it was definitely more tasty than Singapore)before heading for the beach which is only a 10min journey via Car. Ann Lee drove me there and I was so awed by the beach. The beach name is called "Telok Cempedak". It was sooo nice! (If you compare to East Coast Park, *shake head* it was sooo much beautiful there!)

There were monkeys loitering around that area and the place was so peaceful. I wish I could just sit there the whole day enjoying the ocean waves as if I'm in heaven. haha.

Ann and I was sitting on the bench, talking about what most of us will be discussing, our future.

Went back and had our dinner. Took a bath and stayed in the room with the fan facing me while drying my hair. We sort of stayed up until 12 midnight before heading for the bed.


DAY 2 - Fri

Probably it's because of the fatigue from the 7hr long bus trip, we slept until 12 noon before we woke up. Had some biscuits and milk tea for breakfast. After that, Ann brought me to a shopping centre to shop for some items for my "DEAR ORANGE". Bought earrings and a pair of sandals. Went to a shop looking for tops and I quite liked this long white and black striped sleeveless knitted cardigan sort. Was quite tempted to buy but after the shopkeeper told me is "89.90RM", I kindly told her "thank you" and passed the item back to her. Out of a sudden, the lights suddenly went out, probably an electric short circuit. It seems that only a few shops were affected.

Ann's mother went with us and bought a 912 sliver necklace and a pendant which cost around 100RM after bargaining with the lady.

FACT: All kuantan residents speaks Cantonese. As a Hokkien, most of the time, I can only guess what they are saying. But throughout, I'm sort of listening to 98% Cantonese and 2% Chinese. Of course if you speak to them in Chinese, they will definitely reply to you in Chinese.


It almost evening when we reached home from our shopping. I saw that there's alot of tents set up like a Pasar Malam around the vicinity. People were selling Ice Kachang, Bread, Snacks etc... Ann told me that the Pasar Malam was set up every friday. So I guess if you are lazy to travel very far to get your dinner, the Pasar Malam is just across the street for you to buy your dinner. Ann Lee and I toured around the Pasar Malam. Bought soybean drinks, almond jelly and a tapioca snack. It was so fun!

Pasar Malam which is just across the street. Shot using my k800i sony errisson 3mgp camera. Hehe.

After that, we went to Ann Lee's auntie house because her aunt was also selling food to earn some pocket money. She cooked curry, glutinous rice, noodle etc. It was so interesting. You do not need to pay any rental fee, you won't get caught by the police for selling food at your home. I wish I can also do that haha.


Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket



This is their food stall. So convenient!

Her auntie also sold this fried food called "Jiu Cai Gao". It was very tasty.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket



Frying "Jiu Cai Gao" just outside the porch. Not sure who she is. Haha. Probably is her auntie's relative?

Another close shot of her frying.

We end up sitting behind the food stall waiting for customers to come. People passed by, cars passed by. I told Ann Lee that it will be better if her auntie could put up a sign to tell people what we are selling since alot of people don't really dare to approach the stall unless you called out to them.

TO ORANGE: If you are wondering who Ann Lee is, you can see her in the photos. Hehe.


Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

All of us sitting outside, waiting for customers. This is ann lee's side view ^^

To be continued.... (The photobucket is making my blood boil. Takes more than 10min to upload a photo!!!!!) WTH!!! Can anyone recommend a better Image Hosting Site?


CONTINUED


We ended up sitting outside until it was time for dinner. Ann's father drove us to eat their famous "Bak Ku Teh". The place was air-conditioned and clean. Wah, it was the tastiest ever Bak Ku Teh I've ever eaten. Even while I was writing this blog, I can still remember the taste haha. The broth was so nice!! And the reason why it's called Bak Ku Teh is because you drink Chinese Tea after eating! So many herbs and spices inside this broth. I can't help but keep drinking the soup haha.

After that we went back, took a bath and stayed in the room reading my comic book before going to bed.

DAY 3 - Saturday

Another day has passed. Ann's parents has already planned the trip for today. Woke up quite early where we went off again to eat some good food for breakfast / lunch (since it's already 10-11am). Halfway through, we stopped at a supermarket which sells Kuantan's localties, Cuttlefish for me to bring home. Ann recommended those that I should buy and I proceed to the counter and pay.

Something that bugs me is the worker in that shop keeps following me around whenever I go! It's so frustrating. Ann said it is normal here since they are afraid of you "stealing" their things *eyes rolling*.


The items total up to costs $43RM as so I've heard. Gave the cashier 50RM and she gave me back 30+RM. I thought I heard wrongly, it was maybe only 23RM? So I just took the change and went off.

Off we go to this Wanton Noodle Stall for our breakfast. The noodle was hand-made by the owner of the shop and it's really very different from what I eat in singapore. They called it the Fuzhou Wanton Noodle. Tasty!

Then off again we went to our next destination, the popular beach in Pahang, Cherating Beach. For those who are planning to coming Cherating Beach can consider the resort there called "Club Med".

Before heading for the beach, we went to this "Turtle Sanctuary" housed in a Malay House. We have to take off our shoes before entering the place. It was like a muesuem which told alot about turtles and how they protected the turtle eggs before releasing them to the beach. Interesting.

Ann's father wanted to help us take a photo at the place but the camera kept turning off when he pressed the shoot button. (Somemore the 2 AA batteries inside was newly bought.)

After an educational tour, off we went to the beach. Wow! Another beautiful beach. So clean and nice. The water is so blue and the sand so clean. I was awed by it. Because it was about noon so it was kinda hot and luckily I brought my re-movable shades which I can simply just slide into my specs. We were playing with the waters because it felt soooo cooling with the water splashing our feets.

One of ann's sandals got washed off by the waves. In the end, she was walking with only 1 sandal and the other bare-footed. After that we went back home to have a rest.

After having a rest, we went to a nearby hawker centre for lunch. Ate Char Kuay Teow and a cooling desert. After that, went back, rest again before heading to another shopping centre to buy Ann's Shoes.

The shopping centre was so full of Malays...The clothes and the Accessories were...Ahem..not really my taste. Ann and I was almost shopping from the 3rd level to the 1st level without finding any nice shoes that she wanted.

Finally we came across this shop and saw this pair of shoes which both of us were aiming haha (we sort of have the same taste). She tried it on, she thinks this is the best design we can find in this shopping centre so she bought it. She also bought a bag whereas for me I only bought so food at watsons.

Went back home, rest awhile and it's time for dinner! We are going to eat out. Went to eat what we call here "Zhi Cha (hokkien)". They have ordered 5 dishes for all of us (including Ann's auntie and husband) and again I want to reiterate, it was tasty! I think I'm probably tired of eating the food in Singapore.

I always told Ann, "In Singapore, YOU EAT FOR THE SAKE OF EATING, in malaysia, YOU EAT TO ENJOY. Haha, guys do you agree?

Wow. I was damm full with so many dishes to enjoy. Went back with a bloated stomach haha. Returned to Ann's room and rest. Took a bath before continuing reading my comic. How I wish I can do that in Singapore....Haiz...So peacful..No distraction...No Computer, no TV, just me enjoying my comic peacfully. Ahh..Lol

DAY 4 - Sunday

This is the last day where I will be staying here because I will be leaving on Monday. Ann's dad brought us to see Nature's creation, the Waterfall. I'm not sure of the name but it's definitely in Pahang. We went very deep inside the forest. It was like going for a hiking trip, so interesting. Finally, we reached the destination. We were shocked that there is an entrance fee of 4RM per person to enter. =.= What the... Nowadays, people are really good at earning $$$. Heard that last time entrance was free...

Parked the car and off we went to look for the waterfall, there are alot of locals who went there to play like you were going to the beach for picnic. After crossing the rocky path, we finally saw the Waterfall! What magnificent view God has created. Haha. (The photos were with Ann so I can't really post it). You really have to be there to experience it! We went closer and closer to the waterfall. People were wetting themselves below the waterfall. How I wish I can do that too because the weather was quite humid. But be careful, the water force can be very strong so you might not want to stand directly below the gushing water. (One guy did that and he quickly "SIAM" and he was showing expressions of pain in his shoulder haha)

I think this is the best part because I have not really seen a REAL WATERFALL BEFORE, considering that the waterfall at Jurong Bird Park was man-made.

After that, we continued our trip to a temple which Ann's parents said was very famous and it was sort of a tourist attraction.

Ok, we've reached the place and we saw this entrance with a very long path shaped like a dragon's body. We were now at the dragon's end. So we were supposed to walk this "dragon's body" to reach its "head" before we can see the temple. It was definitely a long walk, took us about 15-30 min before reaching the temple.

After that, we bought the joss sticks, incense paper and start praying to all the god statues around the temple vicinity. I was very very confused as to where I should start from. You can see my blur blur face there because I have not really done this myself before. Normally, I will just follow what my mum does. Now it's like I'm doing this on my own. Luckily I was able to complete everything with the help from one of the helpers in the temple haha.

Went back home, took a rest again before heading for the Telok Chempedak beach because I told Ann I wanted to take photos of the beach using my Sony Erricson k800i Cybershot camera (omg, haolian again). It was really a good phone camera which you are going to see now. (Please click to view larger image)













If you are planning to stay at a resort, this resort is a very nice place!








This is the artistic photo (yi shu zhao) that I took. I was quite happy with this photo haha. From this picture onwards, I decided to experiment with different shots haha to take nice "yi shu zhao". In the end, Ann and I was strolling along the beach, posing our camera here and there haha.





Haha. We deliberately stepped around before taking that photo!





Ann's new shoes and my the shoe I wore to Malaysia.





Another artistic shot. I collected the sand and some sea shells while strolling on the beach.





This is Ann at a distance. I took it without her knowing haha.







I really like this beach chair found at the resort so I took a photo of it!

As it was getting dark, we decided to went back home. After resting a while, we went to the hawker centre again to have our dinner. There's even a big projector screen showing the TV show (in cantonese) while we were eating in the open space. Nice!

After eating dinner, we went back home rest again before GOING OUT AGAIN HAHA. Because Ann is meeting her 2 friends at Macdonalds at Telok Chempedak Beach (we are back again) before we set off to Singapore on Monday.

They talked for about an hour plus. Most of the time her friend is talking NONSTOP about her work and office politics. I pity her when I heard that as a Programmer cum Manager her pay is only $2k plus (which converts to 1k Sing dollars). And SOMEMORE she only has 7 DAYS LEAVE working in a small company! And she said sometimes the company even DELAY THIER SALARY by only paying half the amount! .....Ok for this part, I think singapore is still the best haha.

Bid farewell before we went back home to sleep.

DAY 5 - Monday

I have made sure that I have not left anything behind. Took some photos of Ann's house.




This was taken on Saturday night. You can see all my stuff on the floor. Untidy right?








This is one of Ann's dad car (it's a honda city old model I think). They still have 2 more cars (1 proton wira and a jeep which his father used it to go for hunting.)

Brought all our luggage to the car boot and went to have breakfast. We had Pig intestine soup with kway teow. It may sound disgusting for some who don't eat pig intestine but the soup is really nice! I don't eat pigs' intestine too but I didn't know it's so tasty when it was boiled as a broth.

After that, Ann's father drove us to the bus terminal. A photo I took while on the bus. My Cawaii Magazine and my water bottle.



Oh yah, did I mention that a Monitor Lizard went inside Ann's house. It was quite big considering that the tail was very long. We all stood on the sofa and so terrified. Luckily Ann's dad was a hunter so this puny thing was nothing for him. He managed to grab it and drag it outside and erm..kill it. I was asking Ann that do we really need to kill that thing. Ann said she never in her lifetime living in this house saw something like this come in so she said I was very lucky. (erm lucky or unlucky I will just leave it aside, hehe)

I want to thank Ann's parents and Ann for taking care of me during the trip to Pahang. I have a very happy trip there!

P.s: Pardon my grammar and language I did not have time to check >.<

Monday, July 09, 2007

I'm now having a dry throat which causes me to cough and a very troublesome flu which I have to blow my nose every now and then. I even took leave on last Friday, hoping that I can get well by resting more (also to escape my work hehe) BUT....in the end I ended up doing more errands than resting at home for the 3 days......

FRIDAY
- Woke up at around 10am plus to wash up. Received a call from meiling RIGHT AFTER I finished washing up. Around 11am plus, received another call from my "er shen" to go to her house to fix her "dinosaur" laptop (she heard from my mum that I'm not working today...=.=) so that she can use her broadband connection she had just signed up. Went there but was unable to do anything since my cousin had set password for the computer. Went back home for lunch. What a busy day!

Took a short nap and called my colleague Alex to get contacts FOR MY SIS for her some projects. Checked my email and forwarded the email to my sis. It was already around 4 plus. My cousin called me asking me to go his house to fix his dinosaur computer since he was so excited that once the broadband is set, he could play MAPLESTORY.

Took a bath and went to my cousin's house. It was already 5 plus. Tried using the starter kit to detect the modem but to no avail and the speed was crawling LIKE HELL! Asked my sis to bring my laptop over and tried and IT WORKS! So that means is this dinosaur computer problem. Offered to bring back home to remove all the junk from the laptop so that it will run faster. It was already 6 plus AND I HAD TO RUSH TO ANOTHER MEETING WITH MY FRIEND. Went back home, took my sling bag and went to wait for the bus. Luckily it was just at jurong east.

OMG, I did not even have time to rest on Friday!

SATURDAY
I thought, hmm maybe saturday I have all my time to rest and get well. Suddenly, I remembered that I forgot to do something important. WOKE UP AT 7.30AM!!! In the end, I ended up cleaning up my room. In the afternoon, had to HELP MY SISTER give tuition to 2 of my cousins. =.= No rest at all. After dinner, fixed the computer my finding out what had taken up so much space on the hard disk. Did a facial mask while waiting for the laptop to defragment. At night, I talked until 2AM!!! CAN YOU IMAGINE? WHAT REST IS THAT?

SUNDAY
kk. Last day for me to rest I thought. Took an afternoon nap and my sis said she wanted to go to IMM to buy her friends' present. I decided to follow my parents and sis along. They tricked me into driving the car to IMM. Haha. Did alot of errands at IMM. Bought my flu medicine (Clarinase) and bought cherries and strawberries from GIANT. (I can tell you the queue is damm long! ZZZZ) Went back home. No rest at all. Helped my sis wrapped her friends' present. Took a bath and ate dinner before going straight to my cousin's home to pass them the dinosaur laptop. Tried another 1hr again trying to detect the modem but still to no avail. Told my "er shen" it's better to get a newer computer since it works the FIRST TIME on my laptop without ANY PROBLEMS. Went back home, played Audition from 9pm to 10pm before eating my flu medicine and then slept at 11pm.

So my moral of the story: I DID NOT GET ANY SUFFICIENT REST TO GET WELL AND WHAT THE HELL HAVE I BEEN DOING FOR THESE 3 DAYS? =.=

Tuesday, July 03, 2007

Oh my...my blog is rusting again. How long have I not updated my blog? Hmmm.... I think I'm starting to feel it a dread to go to work. Is it a sign to tell me that I should change my job?

As expected. Singaporeans are as kiasu as ever about the GST raise. Everybody was snatching up almost any discount item they could find. Haha. Heard from Orange that Bugis street was so full of people and traffic the day before the GST hike.

And July 1st you get the GST offset package. Yipee.

I'm still waiting for my Cutie spree to come. Haiz. So long. I saw the Cutie Spree website http://tw.user.bid.yahoo.com/tw/show/auctions?userID=cutie_fashion&u=:cutie_fashion

Ahhh, more NEW Clothes!!! I want to buy!!! But I have to wait for the previous spree clothes. Awwww. Please come quickly!!! Taiwan spree is always that slow...

Some new clothes I'm AIMING AT NOW haha:
(Yawn..I'm waiting for Photobucket to load so that I can upload the photos, it's always that slow. I wonder why...)

WTF! Why it took so long for the photos to upload. I'm getting more and more impatient!

Ok. I think I will just upload 1 photo because I HATE WAITING! Will upload again on my next post. :)

Tuesday, May 22, 2007

Nu Ren Wan Sui! Long Live Women!!! Haha. You must be wondering why I said that. Lately, I have been on an Anti-Guys Mood. Probably because of the unfairness I've been getting when in comparison with guys LATELY. I started to boil inside when orange's husband told her that "Men are capable of doing BIG THINGS" and women are only meant to do "SMALL THINGS" Omg! His words really infuriated me.

What the! In the end, I blurted out everything I can argue. I won't ask any guy on any computer troubleshooting anymore! (because normally I ask the guys) I will FIND OUT MYSELF! Stupid guys!

Anyway, if you tell me the same words again, I think I have sort of cooled down...Maybe that time is like a period where I will have my "anti-guys" breakout. Haha.

In the end, orange's husband said, "You must understand the difference between men and women". zzzz What the? Before that, he was demoralising all the women to nothing and now this? =.=

Saturday, May 19, 2007

After I knock off at 6pm, I got a ride from orange's hubby to Great World City and took a free shuttle bus to orchard road to meet Jane, Sharon and Ann Lee for dinner. Heard a shocking news about our company's secret and was so angry that both of us were bitching away about the unfairness and I even said that I will quit after end of this year. Orange hubby was soooo quiet throughout the car ride and I wonder if he thinks that I'm really a "SUMBA PO".

I do not know why but I just feel very unfair considering I'm a web designer cum admin cum graphic designer and now we have 2 attached students here I have to "cum" another supervisor. It's like I'm the only one who has to do everything....weeps.

Meet Jane, Sharon and Ann Lee at a spagetti restaurant in Paragon. Jane just finished her exams, and she has another half a year to go. Sharon was talking about how her company has backstabbing managers and a military style working environment. From what she said, it feels like you are trying to survive in this cruel and mean world where everybody is trying to kill each other just to gain their own benefits. What a selfish world....

After dinner, Ann Lee and I managed to get a cab (finally) to go back home.

I'm sooo angry!!!! Even after I went back home, I keep on bitching to my parents and told them about the secret I knew. ARRHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! I GONNA QUIT!!!!!!!

My PC was finally able to log on Audition without the lagging (although it still lags abit), thanks to my sis who actually turns off Norton Antivirus which seems to be the culprit for slowing down the internet speed! Miracle! I thought is some kind of virus or spyware making the whole internet speed slow down!

Anyway, I've managed to cool down after a night's sleep. I'm more able to accept the secret that I knew. Next time I have to be more careful in the office. However, I think I still have plans on quitting after end of this year. I have not planned what I'm gonna do next.....

OMG! It has been a crazy week for me since Labour Day. I've been fixing my computer by trying to clone the old hard disk to the new one. Alot of trial and error since it's my first time doing it! ALOT OF PROBLEMS I CAN TELL YOU! Finally I got the new hard disk to run properly after removing the old one CAME ANOTHER PROBLEM!!! My internet can't work!!! One problem after another!

I almost pull out all the manual instructions about my Starhub Cable Connection and made a mess of my room. Dismantle the routers and modems with cables lying around. I was so persistent to fix the problem! After around 2 hours of debugging, I STILL DON'T KNOW WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE INTERNET!!!! In the end, I called Starhub and they told me THEY WILL CALL BACK LATER!! Which is when? OMG... (anyway they called the next day which I had already solved the problem? Rolling my eyes.)

Anyway, lucky my Dad came back from work and debug the problem with me. He tried to remove the cable splitter and connect it directly to the cable box. IT WORKS!!! SHIT MAN! I've been doodling around with the computer and then it's the CABLE SPLITTER PROBLEM? ERRRR!!!!

Ok. I'm done with my complaining and bitching. If you are reading this post, please bear with me. Haha.

Lately, I've been spending quite alot. See what I bought at the cutie shopping spree.
My hands got itchy when I saw all the nice clothes! The cons about online shopping is that you need to wait at least 1 month (for Taiwan stocks) to receive your items.










Yay! I've finally bought a new phone after a very painstakingly, long wait since Chinese New Year. I've been pestering my whole family that I want a new phone. It's not that I can't afford and need them to pay, but the problem is: I'm waiting for the line to re-contract so that I can buy the phone! So I waited and waited until Apr 26 when the contract is finally 21 months and YES I have my Sony Ericsson K800i!


(FYI: I've bought the silver colour instead of black)

Why I bought k800i?
- Cybershot camera 3.2 megapixels
- Astonishing bright colour screen
- mp3 ringtone? (because my old phone was playing polyphonic tunes)
- It's like a mini computer, you can put mp3, pictures into it!
- Alot of other features which I have not explored yet.

But the con of this is: THE BATTERY REALLY FLATS FAST! I think the reason is if you are using alot of functions in the phone like camera, mp3 player, it really sucks out alot of battery.

Anyway, now I'm happy that I've bought my phone. I can finally stop complaining about not able to change a new phone after 2 years. Hehehe

It is now 1.29am from the computer clock. I should be going to sleep instead of blogging. Why? Because I'm waiting for the SPYWARE DOCTOR to scan all the files! Why am I desperate to scan all the files? Because I just came back from a company "conference" meeting and shopping at far east plaza and my sis told me that she went FRIENDSTER AND CLICK ON A LINK FROM A MESSAGE SENT BY UNKNOWN PERSON AND WAS BROUGHT TO A PORN SITE!! I think I was more or less quite "kia si" so I installed any spyware software available at download.com. So far, Spyware doctor is still the best, able to detect more spywares than the others!

Anyway, I've finished removing all the 71 spywares found. Time for me to sleep. I can now think what I can spend at John Little with my $50 free voucher. ^^

I'm getting more and more aimless and lazy. I think I really need to quit my job and think about what I want to do. I have actually thought about studying Laselle school but now it's a bit too late since the registration is closed and I don't even have a portfolio. But I think I definitely want to pursue in design because I really like to draw and design, you can say I really really really like drawing alot. Drawing anime characters especially. But I feel like a useless person lately. Doing nothing at home except to slack. No mood to do the things I like. What am I going to do?

Oh yah I wanted to attend Japanese lessons. If anyone is interested, let me know. I need a khakhi to attend lessons with me! :)

Ok. Same day as the post below. But I'm going to talk about something more cheerful! So what is it that you're guessing? hmmm. Let me see...I like to shop online ^^. I always order clothes from sgspree at livejournal. Just type "sgspree" in search engine and you will find the place. Most of the time I order clothes only from Taiwan because they look younger and hip! But nope, I'm not to talk about that. Let's see... Driving? Hmm, to tell you the truth, I don't really like driving and I think I went to get a license because my mother asked me to and my father has a car. So far, I have droven as far as bugis but I got one embarrasing secret to tell you! Hush, "I can't really park the car!" If you have read that, i think i can think of 3 answers you will give me:

a) WHAT! YOU CAN"T PARK!
b) HOW DID YOU PASS YOUR LICENSE!
c) OMG! YOUR SKILL IS REALLY KAYU!

kk. Hush now. I don't mind people saying my driving skill kayu lah but I can tell you I'm not the only female who has that problem. I've heard many stories about that. I think I'm really not fit to drive cause I'm so petite and my father's car is so "big", if you know what I mean. But nope, I'm not going to talk about this either.

Remember in my previous blog that I'm going to talk about this online game called "Audition"? Perhaps not, anyway I think I'm quite addicted to this game. Probably you will say, "aiyoh you how old already still play game!" True true i agree, but what I want to say is, everytime I see my age number jumping from 19 - 21, I'm getting more and more worried. I just want to live life young and do the things I want to do so that I will not regret. Who cares what people say. I have always been listening advices from my parents when young. I think I rejected my SMU application partly because of my parent's advice. Now, I just want to feel young before times passes away in a glimpse before you know.

kk. Let's get back to the point. So what is audtion? It actually compromise 3D characters dancing. You get to listen to lots of korean songs and many and basically you use the 4-direction keys and spacebar to play this game. Sounds boring? In the first place, I thought so but after playing it i think is fun.


(this is the screenshot of all the players' character dancing. For every move, you have to press all the arrow given correctly before the move is executed. Sounds easy, not so, cause they have very fast songs that makes your hands feeble! lol)


This is another mode, called the beatup mode, it's really more challenging, and this, you have to use the numpad (8 keys to play), not easy either for me, cause according to my sis, my reaction was SLOW.

Ok. This screenshot is funny. Basically it's a game between the sexes. Who loses will become penguins for the other group to laugh. haha.


Last but not least, you can doll up your character with nice clothes! (My favourite part!)But if you really want the nicest clothes, you gotta use "REAL $$$" to buy. Cmon let's go back to the reality, there's no such thing as free stuff in this world! I hope there is hehe.

Ok. Basically it's just a crash course of what this game is about. There's so many things for you to explore! If you are interested, kindly log on to www.auditionsea.com to find out how to sign up. IT's FREE! (oops just now I said there's no free stuff in this world, but this one is really free hehe) Wah, I'm giving "free" advertisement too! Anyway, if you really played this game, be sure to add me in as "buddy". My character name is "Yamapink"! Ta Ta. That's all!
Ok. I have flu the next day when I woke up after I came back around 12 midnight after spending the evening with my colleagues. After taking Clarinase, my flu subsides but I started getting headaches. Probably due to the heaty weather. For the whole day, I slept thinking my headache will get better but to no avail. Even during the night when everyone was sound asleep, I kept tossing and turning and always have the feeling of intermittent hot and cold. It was very torturing for me. Lucky that my grandma advised me to take my sis's medicine (because she also had the same problem as me), am I able to get a few hours of sleep peacefully.

Torturing it is for me when i think about all those pills which i have to swallow. Pity for me that i can't really swallow those "big" pills. I don't really quite understand why i can't but whenever i do swallow these "big" pills, i have to force myself not to vomit out.

Now i don't even have appetite to eat. My appetite is getting smaller which I'm surprised with myself too. Hope I'm not the victim of those anorexia kids which i saw on tv. haiz.

Why am I so weak? I was always that weak since young. I still can remember visiting the doctor at his beauty world centre clinic so often that I think he can remember me.

Now, not just my body is weak, my mind is also weak. I'm feel dreadful going to work. Not because of the colleagues or the boss. I'm also sick of working on the stuff I'm doing now. Although I won't say entirely, but part of it is. Maybe, when my boiling point has reached it's limit and burst, I think it will be the end of this job.

Hahh. I finally to scrap off my previous design (letting it bleed to death) without improving it. I really don't have the time to change it! >.<>.<
