Story about my neighbour

Down with fever, sore throat and flu today..So sick..sob sob..uurghhhh. "Hello!" the word was greeted from each of us when the lift was opened. I was on my way to see doctor the next block. Hoo Hoo Hoo, saw my charming neighbour again..How do I get to know him? The story begins..

I used to have two dogs at one point. They are the rascal oscar and playful cookie..They never get along with each other. Everytime, when I went downstair, I had to carry cookie and let the little oscar (which is only 2 months old) walked by himself. He would follow me everywhere I walked unlike cookie would drag me to where he want to walk. One of days, I did the same thing again, went downstair to run some errands with my two accompanies..We waited patiently for the lift to come with this stranger.."Tink Tong", the lift was here. Stepped in the lift and prepared to go upstair and the little oscar just refused to step in. I have to pacify him embarrassing myself infront of the stranger. He was very helpful indeed. He pressed the lift for me while I was saying funny words to my dog..ha ha ha..Finally, after much effort, we were on the way up our floor. "Tink Tong", we have reached the fifth floor and little oscar followed the man out of the lift..Shit!! The man again helped to press the button inside while waiting for oscar to return in. At this moment, the lift suddenly closed. Three of us (the man, cookie and myself) were in the lift travelling up without oscar. My heart was so panicked. Luckily the man reaction was fast, he quickly pressed the sixth floor and me rushed out, run one floor down and looked for my dog..Thanks gawd, I found him..The man helped me with my dogs and returned to the seventh floor and finally we reached home safely.

From there on, we often met each other at the lift and smiled at each other. He is a charming 30 odd man, with the right height, the right body and most of all, he has this deep dimple on his face..Hoohoo hooo..I think he drives a lexus and is married..No sure but when this is how I know my neighbour..

By the way, wanna know how come my oscar was so rebellious that day? The answer is because I was carrying a cane on my hand which I bought when running errands..Obviously, he was scared of the cane..ha ha ha

Christmas Presents

The two hours christmas shopping this evening alone nearly broke my weak back..My legs were so tired that I could hardly walk and not to say, to carry three big paper bags of presents..Finally, I managed to finish my last minutes christmas shopping..Phew..Can't help but to say "Shopping is really a torturing activity". I wanna saluate those who can shop for hours and days.

Presents which I received till now:-

(1) Oggy gave me $1400 cash.

(2) My organisation gave each of us a card reader thumb drive which allows us to easily extract details from our handphone memory card.

(3) My boss gave each of us a big bar of almond chocolate.

Be meeting my friend this friday for christmas present exchange and advance dinner. Can't wait to see what she bought for me..The present which I bought for her is something I really like..It is from Liz Caliborne. Can I give it to myself? It is so tempting and at that moment, I thought of buying a similar set but managed to remind myself that it is not my objective today..See, I am able to control myself..


Feel so sick now. Just finished cooking a pot of porridge to feed myself after a hard day work..Got to go..

Greetings

Friday night

Sec school gathering at Furama Hotel last friday was quite enjoyable..Food was not nice at all but at least we enjoyed each other accompany. Laughter from our table was loud and clear..We must have make the limelight of the night..

Right after the warm dinner, I hopped on to join my colleagues. Been out of the scene for years and finally I joined in the fun with them. That was "St. James Power Station". We queued up for about 30 mins or more to get into this pub known as "DragonFly". "What the heck!!!! How come the music played by the liveband was in Chinese?" my mind was confused for a moment I stepped in. Damn, paid to get into a "low class" place..sorry but to say it was actually like the old Canto pub at Marina South last time..No wonder, I saw aunties when I was with the queue...Second floor was ktv, oh gosh...This was amazingly shocking...Please, please, please, for goodness sake..We hang around for 45 mins and left the place after finished our drinks...Explored for good pubs around and we ended up at "Devils Bar". Not very happening though but it was really entertaining. Saw two ladies whom made our night. They danced and reacted like hunger for sex and men..so horny..so desperate..Every guy who came near to them was their prey...ha ha ha ha..hey hey, woman is also their prey alright..Believe me or not, our table was just next to the live band, dancing floor and railing bar and we had a good view and laugh...

All in all, these two gathering were really fun..Almost lost my voice..hee hee

Life is full of surprises

13th of Dec is here again..Should I grieve or celebrate on this day? On one hand, it is my dad's birthday and on the other hand, it is Melvin's death anniversary. Sigh..He is one of those who died in his sleep. Should I say he is fortunate? Life is full of surprises, a person so young at the age of 28 who does not smoke or drink leading a simple life just left this world..Many of us were shocked by this news, but we still have to accept the fact. Was at the temple today to see and say "hello" to him. When I uttered "Take care ya!", my eyes and voice went soft..

"Happy Birthday to you, Dad. I love you!". Sent an sms to my dad this morning 12 sharp. I am a daddy girl and will remain forever. God has blessed me with the best dad in the world. Though my dad is poor, but my dad has given us alot of care by all his means quietly. He is like a friend to us, he talks rubbish to us, cracks joke with us, shows our friends with respect, never scold us, never control us and best of all, support us in all our decisions.

Not sure why, my bond with my dad is so much stronger than my bond with mum. I have told my dad "I love u" so many times and never in my life did I even mention it to my mum. Met up with mum last friday and had a simple meal and some chit chat. Know what..I seldom have eye contact with my mum when I talked to her. I felt she is like a stranger to me or maybe because I do not know how to communicate and treat her as a mum..sorry..Nevertheless, she is still my mum and I sincerely hope that she can forgive me for not ready to accept her. I will try to one day. Please forgive me!!

Items to look out for

It has been long since I bought something expensive to pamper myself. I have been eyeing a bracklet from Swaroski jewellery for months since feb. I saw it again this weekend..Hmm, thought of buying it maybe this coming Jan..Hmm, really took me one year to decide if I want to purchase..Tough customer isn't it..ha ha.

There are two other brackets I love in robinson as well. C'mon, one time at a time alright...I saw a men bag there too. It was very nice..I seldom eye on a men bag unless it is very nice and i tot the bag was quite catchy. Guess how much it cost? Bloody $500 alright..SO DAMN EX..

Oggy has been complaining that the jacket he wanted to get has been sold out..Poor thing..I was with him sometimes ago when he eyed on that jacket, but unfortunately i did not notice it at all..ha ha ha.I am also looking out for a jacket but until now, I did not see anything I like..well, it takes time..I always believe, when u want someting, it will not appear, but when you dun need it anymore, it will appear..Lets fate decide...

All about Common Law

Hey guys, do you still remember the old uni days which we spent our time studying "Contract Law"? I bet you do remember because that was the most memorable subject in your entire life too. Went for a training on Contract law again today. Terms like "Offer", "offerer", "Invitation to Treat", "Consideration","Minor" all flashes back.. Scary isn't it??..But for that moment, I thought of going back to get the book and study it again just like reading a book. The only difference is this time round I do not need to memorise the case law for exam. Opss, this time round, I definitely would not need to write "In an undecided case"...hee hee.

For gals out there, in case you do not know, please do remember to give 5 cents or a gift token to your husband when your husband gave you a wedding ring alright. As long as you have given your hubby a token, there will be contract binding and he has no rights to take back the ring when file for divorce..So, JUST REMEMBER...

By the way, do you wonder how come we studied "Common Law" instead of "Civic Law"? No one ask that question before.

Mind Riddle

I have enough stress but someone challenged me with this mind riddle. PLease Please help me!!

I borrowed $50 from my mum and dad each which amounts to $100. I took this $100 to buy a pair of shoe at $97. The shop returned me $3 and I in turn gave $1 back to mum and dad each. So I am left with $1. After returning, I still owe mum and dad $49 each which add up to $98. So, $98 with the $1 I have, it totals up to only $99. Where is the another $1?

Christmas is coming

'Are we still exchanging Christmas Present,' asked Jaseline. "Yup!" I replied. On one hand, I was thinking what should I buy for her. How about Oggy's present as well..Every year this time, I need to start to crack my head. Sigh..

Brother's birthday just past. Next coming ones is Dad's ones..Oh gosh..Dec is really a broke month and the best part is I HATE SHOPPING..Everywhere is so crowded and crowd always made me headache..Though population in Singapore is not huge compare to other countries, but shopping centers are always so bloody crowded. Why and WHY????

The most enjoyable christmas I ever had is when I was in Korea. Snow everywhere..So white and thick..That's my first time in my life I was covered by snow..Besides, I did enjoy the christmas shopping at Boston as well. It was really nice everywhere..Houses are decorated with christmas trees, ginger bread, etc. It was really cosy. Christmas in U.S compare to Singapore is so far far different. You should not ever miss the chance to spend your christmas there but please, not in Asian countries. Say me bias or what, but it is the truth..

Living here

Received an online casino letter from xxx in my mailbox today. It stated that I was a VIP casino player and have selected to receive this exclusive "Once only" offer at $100 free. Isn't it tempting? hee hee..Before I am going to kick off to use this $100 to generate $5 everyday and slowly $10, I have read up the Online casino law in Singapore. It is illegal..Really sucks..This means I have been taking risk few years back by playing online casino. Too bad, I have to drop the idea now. No black record is allowed now because it is going to affect my immgration. No way..Be patience and I will be back...

"Civil officers get pay increment!!!". This don't sound pleasing at all...How come only applicable to civil servant and not others? We work as hard than them too.."G" is just smart!! On one hand, they increase GST and the other hand, they offset the increase of GST by increasing their own pay. Hey, this is all TPs' money alright!!!

Modelling

Suppose to have a Newman Panel Interview on Friday evening at Swissotel Westin cafe and photoshoot next week, but I have kinda cancelled my appointment. When I was invited, I kinda of sian because of the need to meet another three new friends and mix around to have fun together for the photoshoot. The entire interview and photoshoot will then be published in the magazine. At the moment, memories flashed through me. Recalled the past when I was still young and participated numerous photoshoot. Pictures of mine appeared in magazines, posters and newspapers. It was quite fun at the beginning but eventually I found it very very tired and hectic.

Still remembered my first audition. There were about 8 of us invited for it and only 4 will be selected. Each of us was asked to put our head over a board and the photography will shoot our head only. Of course, we were told to smile happily. The selected model will have their face "painted" using photoshop and published in poster. A poster with 4 heads painted..just imagine..ha ha..Hey, I was one of them alright..

For the second audition, 7 of us were invited and suppose to have a photo published in magazine. It was to advertise t-shirt and we stood in a line posing in relax mode (talking to each other). Each of us was assigned to different colour of t-shirt and at that moment, I was hoping that I will not get the white ones because my green bra will definitely look transulent..Ha ha..and guess what??? I got the white ones..Damn it..."Can I have another color?," I asked the photographer and he made me disappointed. For awhile, I went blank and luckily, a professional model offered me her skin colour bra..Thanks god at the time..

Actually, there were alot of funny stuff to share for all my photoshoots..For one of my photoshoots, because the male model looked taller than me, I was made to stand on a telephone book..Sound embarrassing right?? I am so shorty...sob sob

Everyone thought it was cool to be a model and in fact, it is really a tough job. You are told what to do and smile whole day until the smile looks so fake and at the end of the day, you can no longer have the energy to talk and smile anymore. Besides, during the photoshoot, you cannot even sit down, otherwise you will be told to iron your clothes again..ha ha ha..Sound like slave..

Well, actually it was indeed a precious experience to me. At least not everyone got a chance..

Medication

Have been on Roaccutane for 7 days and noticed my lip is getting dryer..No wonder doctor remind me to apply lip balm regularly..Have also been drinking water regularly because this medication is going to make my skin very very dry. It is a 4 - 6 mth medication course and had signed a agreement form not to get pregnant during this period else the poor baby can get deform. Blood test has been taken during the consultation and have to revisit the doctor in another one week time to see how it progress.

Oggy is back. Hurray, I received three gifts. One bottle of perfume, a dress and a top. Wow, he spent about $300 on me in total..That's alot and to compare with the items I bought for him from bangkok, I felt embarrassed. Ha ha ha..Well, hhmmm, hmm..hm..speechless.

Just another day

That adorable girl begged me to create a website for her..So cute..I thought I could help her when I was there. Too difficult to create without her presence. Not a hurry, I am sure I will be there next week with Oggy.

The new season CSI is here again. Can't wait until next Tuesday..hurray..Am just a tv fleak addicted to American Next Top Model, CSI, Maggie Me, Ghost Whisperer, Project Runway..Chinese show at Channel 8 is getting bad to worst..oh gosh.Same for Channel U..

Counting down to another 4 days to see Oggy..So excited..

Monday is a short day. Half day work only as there is a need to attend staff conference in the afternoon follow by Dinner and Dance. Been wondering what is the door gift..Hope it is not something disappointing..hee hee

The haze outside is so bad..Oh boy, it is making my complexion worst..Idiot and damn rain, when will u arrive to help the world?

Mark it unauspicious day

The song "I can't cry hard enough" should somehow describe my feeling now. Urrgghhh..Been working on the three issues spotted by my DD (note: Not AD nor my users) since this afternoon 3 plus. Luckily managed to get the vendor to fix the issues. Phew..Headache mann. Damn vendor too. Couldn't them do the minimal verification. "TODAY IS SUNDAY ALRIGHT!!"...Guess I am not the only one shouting..My vendor should be cursing me too..I feel so sore now!!

Nevermind. Everything is going to be alright. It is just a job k. Afterall, it is not how hard I fall, but how soft I will land.

ok then, I don't wish to talk much now..I am fleaking mad, tired, frustrated, serve myself right for sending that announcement email to make myself work so hard..For godness sake, I still need to fire fight another issue tomorrow.

I shall mark my calendar 1st of Oct as an unauspicious date thereafter. I swear!!!!!!!!!!!!! No children day as well TOO!!

Anger

Puke blood!! Been trying to get into Standard Chartered internet banking for half a hour. I have really lost my patience and sent a complaint email to their customer service. It is indeed boiling me. Dammit to hell and back...Thought it would be a patience day as I had enough sleep, but I was wrong. Have slept for almost 15 hours non stop till this afternoon 4.30 p.m. Ha ha..Steady right??

I had a stressful day at work on Friday. Worked till 7.30 pm in office. Three items had go live on Friday itself and one to go live on Monday. I managed to complete three items (Thanks god) and the only item to be ready on Monday had a bit of hiccup. Need to settle it on Monday..sigh..Poor me!!

Heard about the permanent scheme and it does not sound good at all. Afterall, I need to have a proper calculation to see if everything is worthy is to convert from contract to perm. My gut feeling is I may stick to the original contract. Quite disappointed about the package though..

Thought of going to Bugis and Boon Keng mrt to get some clothes. I have eyed two clothes at the two respective stores. But somehow, I am too lazy..Perhaps shall make a trip down on Monday after work. Let's see how situation goes.

Here for now..ni-ight.

Dreams

Oggy's phone will be off for a reason. Just sent him off at the aiport 30 mins ago. Gotta misses him lots while he is away to Australia for two weeks and hope he enjoys this trip.

Travelling around the world has always been my dream. I have only been to Malaysia (Redang, Kota Tinggi, KL, Genting, Malacca, JB, Langawi, Tioman), Indonesia (Bali, Bintan), Australia (Perth, Melbourne, Bisbane, Gold Coast, Sydney), Korea, Thailand (Bangkok, Phuket), United States (San Fransico, Boston, Hoston). My next destination will be Europe next year. That's one of my plans.

Besides having a dream to travel around the world, I also hope that one day I have the ability to start a cafe business by the beach...Living a carefree life, walking by the beach everyday with my love, talking to tourist, participating in the sea activities, etc. That is my biggest dream.

Being able to live in my own world, executing my plans and moving forward to my dreams are the motivation in life. Some said I am asking for a lifestyle in life. Is that really true? I can only say different people have different perspective in life. To me, it is not lifestyle, it is quality life.

Finally, I do not like people disturbing my life, threatening my life. To me, these are all disturbance and I need peace to move on in my life. Because of "peace", my surrounding friends always said I am a boring person. Well, basically I do not think so myself because I have my own activites and am enjoying them.

Never a lonely soul..To be alone and to feel loneliness are two different elements. Please do not mix them up ya..

Enuff for now!!. Have to go for a bathe.

Lifestyle

"I'm going to give you a winter look," said my hairdesser and here it goes, strands of hair dropped on the floor. Finally, I had a hair cut and change of colours to my hair. I thought he was a good hair stylist and consultant. He had give me a new look and I thought I love it so much. The strong blue black base and purple strands with gold colour tone here and there looks cool to me. That's what I want. "Simplistic Sexy"..Simple and Sexy..Wow, sit there for four hours was really a torture but at least the result is fabulous.

That's enough. Three hours of facial on Saturday and four hours of hair do on Sunday were really enjoyable. That was pampering. Been to the food court at Botanic Garden, the food was so-so but at least it is a new place to me.

Hady has won the game..The new Singapore Idol and the journey just begin to him..How far can Singapore idol goes? That's a question which puzzles me but anyway, its his dream. Everyone has a dream and how about yours...

I felt so sick today. Very bad headache and still feel my head very heavy. Doctor told me it is a sickness cause by one of my nerves. It will go away after some rest. SOOO, I sleep and sleep like a pig..Still feeling not very good, hopefully it will get better tomorrow..

Patient going to rest..ciao.

My dog

For that moment, it was a fast and furious temper from me at work..After a while, I settled in and everything was fine. We have sort things out calmly between us. Life at work is not easy!

Thanks to Ferando for giving me a white hairy creature. He is a nobody child but my darling dog. His name is cookie. He has been with me for 5 years and given me endless joy and happiness. There with me when I need someone to talk to and play with. Indeed the most precious gift I ever received. Still remember the first sight I caught him. He looked so bony and bald.."Yucks, he looks ugly,", that was the first comment I made. Thinking back, I regretted the thought I made because I have slowly grew love with him everyday..How I wish he can stick with me for my entire life and could not imagine my life without him. I really appreciate the every day life with him because he is already part of me, the part of flesh of mine.."Ouch!" It will be very painful if that flesh is gone. "Cry hard!".

Project Runway is back again..I have an appt with tv every Mon and Wed. ha ha..Sometimes I thought perhaps I can marry to a television since I am so attached to it..Isnt it nice? It will give me whatever I ask for, e.g. laughter, sadness, thrill, colours, etc..

Story of my life for now..To be continue..

Experience

Oh, god. My heart pounched. My breathing almost suspended when I was at the bottom of the sea. Visibility was so bad, I could hardly see anything and was told to take off and clear my mask. Gosh...Take a deep breathe. Phew, experience gone away after the first dive. The second dive was much better and I did enjoy it. I spent my whole morning till afternoon for outside sport..Quite enjoyable though..

The nitrogen in my body made me restless..Felt like sleeping but tv programme always make me awake..ha ha..

Finally plan 3 is completed, plan 4 in the midst of processing and be executing plan 5 in Oct. For plan 6, it will be accomplished in Dec..I am getting closer to my dreams and goals. "Dream is always hard to get, that's why it is called dream," said my Oggy, and I thought I like that statement very much.

Bye for now! Cheers

Just another day

Finally, phew!! I just got my ipod nano fixed. Couldn't understand how come the i-tunes in my office laptop was not working but it worked on the PC at home..Puzzled but anyway, it is done. Case closed.

Had a fullfilling dinner at changi village today. Stream fish and squids and oyster egg..yum yum, sound good huh.....Went up to the 8th floor of Changi hotel where the swimming pool is. Amazingly, it is indeed a nice place. In fact, this hotel looks cool to me..High ceiling, nice decoration, cosy environment, clean, quiet. I feel it is one of the prestigious hotel...Am considering of hosting my ROM soleminzation there...

Tomorrow is Friday..Hurray..counting now..

ciao
