Earthquake

Last nite, I felt the earth moving.. my 2nd time feeling an earthquake shake.. I tot I was too sleepy an feeling faint.. But no, it was really the earth shaking.. At tat point of time, I tot of my family, so i immediately rush out of my room to see if they are alright.. they are perfectly fine, so is ah-pok.. then i realise, my family makes a very large part of my life..

Yesterday finished the last half day of work at Avnet.. after tat, went to Bishan for lunch then spent almost the rest of the day there.. Poor XueNing, lost so much weight after the hand-foot-mouth illness that made her ill for one week.. still my favourite among the rest.. i bot the kids popcorns and they really enjoyed it.. they are so lovely and I felt so good just looking at them.. at 5.30, when xuening left home, i went shopping at J8 alone.. wanting to get a sweatshirt from ebase, but the size was really too big.. then i bot a $10 bag and a pair of socks from ice lemon tee for use in HK.. left 2 more days to HK.. HK, I am coming!!! Lata be watching a horror show with mum and walk ard PS bah :)

A fruitless day

Sunday, another boring day.. been doing nothing.. cant be bothered to read and cant be bothered to pack.. just laze ard like mud.. spent a long time being a couch potato today.. time not well spent.. went compass point with mama for dinner.. had a bowl of hot, soupy mee hoon kway which i craved for.. shopped ard abit and spent a few dollars at valuedollar.. saw some new arrivals at ness which tempted me to try.. yet did not as mama was waiting.. took lrt back home.. watched volcano on tv, showered, then continue with da-ge-da.. so, one more day passed like tat.. FRUITLESS :(

Yesterday and Today

Went to sis' new ccc to help in coloring.. I colored a total of 4 pcs, using pastel crayons, which consist of 7 elephants representing days of the week.. it was tough job.. not easy to color ok..! We left at abt 4.30pm and sis treated me to a gratifying meal at YONG HE DOU JIANG @ Geylang.. Home, changed and whe nigel came, we went out again for shopping at Tampines.. had a late dinner at Cafe Cartel.. Was not hungry so i just ordered a salad.. waiting for our midnight movie at 11.45-11.55pm.. They went to watch ms congeniality while I watched THE WEDDING DATE alone.. I was the first to reach the theater and obviously the only one alone watching this romantic comedy.. No, I dun pity myself.. in fact, I love watching movies alone.. been doing this since I was 16.. I always think I am a unique child.. Different from my siblings, and seems noone shared my interests and behaviour.. HAHA...

Evaluation for the movie.. alittle boring and the storyline/ending is just as expected.. nothing surprising.. No big casts whatsoever and it's rather short.. 1.5 hrs including all trailers and commercial ads.. Yet, I learnt something from the movie.. Don't let the past get in the way of your future relationships.. some unhappy things should be forgotten and buried.. Dun live in the past so tat your future will be happier.. Rating: 6 out of 10 popcorns.. I was so bloody tired tat I snooze immediately after shower..

Today woke up is another day.. a shorter day perhaps as I woke up after 12.. had a terrible bowl of mee siam for breakfast but gave up eating soon after.. mum became the trash collector (yet again HAHAHA..) playing ard with comp then went to compass point at 3.. did some banking matters, borrow some books from the library and bot a few items from watsons.. talking abt library.. i really hate the stupid library.. its more like a market place than a reading place.. so bloody noisy.. children running, aunties chit chatting.. kaoZzz... never see such a noisy library before.. poor management is the key here.. while inside selecting my books, i tot of strategies on how to make this a better place.. ideas popped up such as closing down the place for 3 days to punish these people for making so much noise, renovate and segregate the different sections (the library is an open concept one), etc.. but then why should i think so much for them.. as if i am the BOSS.. heeeheee...

Had an early dinner and retreated to my room, playing with my comp again.. creating a new public bloggie without indicating my name or links to this bloggie.. wanna see..??

CLICK HERE: Life is Full of Colors...

Left for bro's place at 9+.. played with kaikai abit.. went out with mum to get supper then back home to shower.. now here, blogging KEKEz.. another day ended like this.. 5 days countdown to HKG!!

My Interview Experiences

So SamSam went for 2 interviews today.. the first one was at URA, position is Public Liaison Executive.. sounds like some PR job right...??! YOU ARE SO DAMN WRONG!! Was 5 mins late for the writing test, total 5 Qs and it took me about 45 mins to answer.. MAN! I hate writing tests.. reminds me of those UWA exams.. so shitty and everytime cant wait to finish quick quick and run out of the exam hall fast fast.. spoken to 3 girls there and found tat my PR skills not bad sia.. able to strike up conversations with people and found myself totally at ease speaking to strangers.. I have not lost my customer service skill after wasting 2 whole yrs at Avnet Asia.. kekeZ..

Only one out of 2 interviewers were there.. it was a lady who is very direct and straightforward.. spoken to her quite awhile.. detailing my educational background and working experience and even quote incidents of encounters with nasty customers and how to handle them.. blah blah blah.. but the most impt thing is THE JOB IS NOT FOR ME.. resolving parking offenses appeals, standing in at counters, attending walk-in customers and answering phonecalls ARE REALLY NOT FOR ME.. I think sooner or later i will start feeling useless again.. I know my priorities and understand what i wanna do and achieve.. Then, the interviewer popped the question "How hot are you for the job?" meaning, how much do I want the job.. I appreciated her for being straightforward and i'll be direct with her too.. I told her I am not interested and blew my chance of getting a civil servant job WAHAHAA... we laughed.. and she is rather impressed that I am so direct, without wasting either parties' time and mentioned to me that I am the first one who is so direct.. I have no regrets whatsoever.. even before I quit Avnet, I already told myself to look for the right job and dun ever be a disgruntled employee again.. I MUST LOVE MY JOB AND MY LIFE ^_^ So I walked out of the room, having a pleasant ending session with the interviewer wishing me best wishes for my future endeavors.. I certainly hope so :)

One bad thing abt URA is also the location IS DAMN FAR.. I din regret going for the interview as it is a good experience and a chance for me to recap my interviewing skill (as an interviewee).. last but not least, they have very clean toilets and their lift has NO NUMBER BUTTONS INSIDE.. strange..?? haha.. its a dedicated lift system whereby Lift E is programmed to reach Level 3 only.. Inside the lift only has close door, open door and alarm HAHA... an eye opener..! O_O

2nd interview at Raffles Hospital, just 5 mins walk from Bugis Junction.. waited for quite a while after filing up the application form.. entered the interview room only at 6.50pm.. the skies turning dark and the receptionist packed up and went home.. The interviewer fancinated me.. she is a petite lady and seemed to me tat she has excellent business acumen.. she's the corporate service manager, doing account servicing, sales and marketing services to corporate clients, particularly in the insurance business.. she need to hire a corporate services executive, doing part of her account servicing and ad hoc stuf.. can expect some administrative duties and event coordination.. stress and pressure are definitely involved and I reckon it to be totally tough working under her.. she is so full of zest and enthusiasm towards her job and she even proclaim that SHE LOVES HER JOB.. she is my role model.. I really like people who love their jobs and I certainly want to be in the league.. throughout the 50-min long interview, she did most (really most) of the talking while i listened attentively and spoken some.. I dun think she knows alot abt me and I cant gauage my chance of a 2nd interview.. nonetheless, it was good exposure again and I really count my blessings to meet someone like her.. and made me realise tat PEOPLE WHO LOVE THEIR JOBS STILL EXIST ON EARTH ^_^ The industry (medical - insurance) wasnt wat i really wanted to do, but then, I am glad to be courageous enough to go for the interview and then feel totally at ease.. no sweaty palms and cold feet today.. I feel totally great.. I hope the confident and free-spirited wendy is back again :)

But then, thinking about my career plans.. I still prefer event management in the fashion, beauty or media industry.. looks like its gonna remain a dream bah.. nonetheless, everything is predestined and i believe tat whoever u work for/with is by chance, a little bit of luck and totally fated... I let God plan bah.. but I will listen to my heart :)

HellO HOngKOng

8 days to HONGKONG!!!!!!!!! Jacky Chan, Andy Lau, Sammi Cheng, I AM COMING!!!

Missing out on blogging lately.. been lazy..? Ya, perhaps.. So what was I up to recently..? Well, today went retail therapy with Jamie!!! The main purpose is to get Tracy's bday present! But ended up we splurged on ourselves too..!! SO WHAT?? This is how you spell W-O-M-A-N mah..!! =P Got Tracy a ladylike handbag in white from Little Match Girl while Jamie and I bot a top each.. got a membership card in return!! 15% discount from now onwards..! In addition, Jamie bot a pair of pants from GG5 and sweet heels from URS.. I bot a tote bag from HushHush @ 19 bucks.. bot Tracy a nice card too at Kalms.. Then we dip fries in curry sauce @ Mac and enjoyed a cup of ice lemon tea.. ^_^ After we split, I went on to Compass Point, to get a black folder, window shopped and tabao rice for mother and I.. Now pedicuring myself and getting ready for tomolo's interviews @ URA and Raffles Medical..! Still gotta work half day tomolo and can expect a packed day :) BUT I AM HAPPI

Was working at Lor Chuan for the past 2 days and made a trip to Tanglin Mall to pay up the bazaar stall rental on Sunday.. Shopped on my own and bot a top from Zara @ Wheelock place.. bot a white cap too, from Esprit.. realised tat Singapore is a shoppers' paradise.. esp for me.. i just cant stop!!!

AND I AM REALLY HAPPI RECENTLY.. I really hope this would last for long.. Been clearing out rubbish from my mind, undergoing self therapy.. I no longer chat on msn with HIM.. and starting to feel tat bfs are not that necessary.. I began to understand my strong and weak points in that r/s and already accepted the facts and moved on, living my own happy life and looking forward to upcoming things =) It has been a tough battle to fight and I am glad tat I managed to pass through.. I am a warrior in life, yah?! Haha.. fallen out of love is nothing to me now.. I am glad to have this one difficult experience so I wont be afraid to fall/hurt again.. I'm sure the next time wont be so bad again.. Like people say, once you've fallen out of tat bicycle, you wont be afraid of pain the next time.. I agree 100%..

Let us all look forward to the wonderful life we can have..!

Wrap my words ard you..

Listening to daniel beddingfield's "Wrap my words ard you" now..

alot of tots came to me while I was folding paper wrappers awhile ago.. i decide to write this.. my life encountered alot of changes since last Aug.. when the big break sipped in.. it totally changed my life and made me take on a different perspective towards life since then.. in fact, it brought abt alot of realizations and reflections on myself.. I matured alot but could never keep up tat innocent grin i used to have.. this is called growing up.. why do people have to grow up? Growing up truly hurts..

the most impt thing i realise abt myself is tat i was wrong abt myself.. i have always tot tat i'm very patient.. but in fact, i was indeed patient to everyone else, just, except myself.. i have been too impatient on myself.. wanting things to happen quickly for me and wish for quick success.. forcing and pushing myself all the time.. expectations too high and demanding too much.. i want myself to do well in everything - my job, my studies and my life.. i threw tantrums at work whenever i feel i din do well in something.. i broke down when i cant answer a tutorial question, and i got frustrated when i run out of ideas for assignments.. i just want time to pass quickly and make myself a successful person..

i realised, i've lived life wrongly.. God probably sent a messenger to correct me and bring me to my senses.. am i finding excuses..?? HAHA.. maybe its time to get back to "earth", to get back to reality.. i'm sure things from now on will be great.. there shd be many things for me to look forward to instead of looking backwards.. another thing i realise abt myself.. I still prefer handsome guys KEKEZ... stealing glances at Peter Robinson whenever i can in the office.. he's the only caucasion in real life who's ever stolen my heart WAHAHA.. i look at handsome guys in the train, in the bus, along underpass, Orchard Rd or wherever i can spot them.. call me the HG scouter bah :)

It's Friday ~ !

40mins to knockoff.. I was terribly busy in the morning but suddenly freE now.. stomach not feeling good and the nausea sipped in.. pregnant..? HAHA, u muz be kidding ^_^ Well, yest dropped out of the boutique interview and went with sis to East Coast Laguna to visit her new ccc.. Nice place ^_^ and I am looking forward to gaining a free ride to East Coast Park!! Its so near ECP tat u can walk there!! I bet if I am still not working by the time she report for work, I'll take a ride on her car to ECP and enjoy the whole day at the beach, till she knocks off..! It was a long day, so many things to discuss with her new bosses and we only managed to leave ard 11pm and had our late late dinner at 11.30pm.. might have to work till next Mon.. good in a way to earn extra cash..

Oh yea, our bazaar stall is confirmed! No. 18, lucky number :) Be gg to Tanglin Mall to make payment on sunday after meeting with FP.. tomolo will be FAMILY DAY! needa get my earrings ready too.. Have quite a number of things to look forward to till end Apr.. Gotta get my engine pumping now.. my life's been changed recently.. feeling more peaceful and getting more onto track.. Starting to let past memories slipped and looking forward to better and more beautiful things.. I hope tomolo's gonna be better and I want to repeat this everyday :)

31Mar - 4Apr : HK Trip - HK!! I AM COMING!!
8 Apr : Concert @ Esplanade - The Sound of Music
16 Apr : Bazaar Sale @ Tanglin Mall
27 Apr : BTT!!!

Temp at Avnet + a long walk

Just for this week.. i'll be helping Betsy out with HR admin, such as calculating OT, updating leave records and doing medical reimbursement.. though my wisdom tooth on the right bottom is hurting badly, i am still geared for work this week.. good in a way tat i got money to earn and money to spend!! YAY!! This amount of extra cash will be put into my travel fund!! YAY!! Did nothing much productive according to my opinion today.. but then, Betsy gave me a contact which is an events company owned by her fren.. she recommends me for a try as events manager.. kekekez.. i'll try when free ^_^

so, din manage to meet orange at orchard.. so i, the lone ranger took bus/mrt to orchard and i walked to tanglin mall from there.. dun think i wanna waste time to wait for 111, most importantly, i just wanna walk today.. remembering those times i walked from home from hougang when i was working in cristofori.. these walks were great, as i used them to think, clearing my tots and discovering myself.. not very sure of the way, i just aga-aga.. then i made a turn into regent hotel.. still not sure of the way, i tot i was lost, nonetheless, i din panick and follow my heart.. who knows, i actually got to tanglin mall using a shorter way!! is this call luck?? i dunno, I just felt tat God brought me there.. He took me on a short cut.. if i hadnt made tat turn, i would have walked a longer way.. and i got to know the way better.. i dunno why, when i reach TM, i just felt so glad.. i felt as if God was with me.. he took me there.. i dunno why i have this feeling suddenly..

i registered for the bazaar.. the receptionist was very unfriendly.. i think she must be sick of her job.. so, if i successfully balloted for the stall, they'll gimme a call :) have to go Tangs to help sis buy a bag.. so i walked to Tangs.. visited the bags section but i think the bag is no longer on sale liao.. cant find it anywhere.. so i decided to make my way home.. lazy to take the train (issit called lazy??) or rather, just dun feel like cramming with the others in the cabins, i took a LONG walk to PS.. i was doing alot of thinking nonetheless, on the way back.. yet my tooth kept hurting all the way.. felt like collapsing sometimes.. i just dun feel so well today :( I finally made my way there!! and took the NE train back.. reached home slightly over 8pm.. it was really a LONG walk today.. i think i have walked abt 1hr without stop.. unless shopping.. cant eat :( the toothache's stopping me to consume solid food.. i rinse my mouth with salt water then boil some chrysanthemum drink.. had to lower down the heat in my body.. watched TV and now blogging.. feel like collapsing into bed soon.. Zzzzz...

I got a new assignment!

So i'll be off to work tomolo.. Betsy, the HR manager of Avnet called me while I was in the cinema, asking me to help her out for this week.. YAY! so, i'll be paid 8.50 per hr.. this money would be good enough for my bag-buying trip in women's street HK!!!!

I was at PS just now.. window shopping.. bot shower foam and make-up brushes at sasa and blew abt 16 bucks.. tempted to get tat pupa lip gloss but fortunately able to hold the horse given my present predicament.. got a ticket for "In good company" at 2.50pm.. the cinema people cocked up lor.. at the time when the acknowledgements were shown before the official beginning, the screen kena turned off.. people were like getting restless when we waited something like 5 mins before they play some music to entertain us.. but then shortly, they flash back the screen again.. everything went under control from then.. Evaluation.. its a comedy but it does get me bored sometimes.. generally its a nice show though the ending wasnt wat i expected.. no famous casts whatsoever.. yet its a film u shd sit down quietly and enjoy it instead of having a chat mate beside u.. Rating: 7.5/10 Quite alright show..

Went home lor, must get ready for work tomolo liao.. kekekez.. finally gg back to work though suppose very boring one as all admin and have to be stuck at an office.. nevermind la.. anyway need to earn some quick cash for my HK trip!! YAY!!!!! HK!! I AM COMING!!

Sunday ~ A Sickly and Non-productive Day
Took a flu pill b4 i slept last nite.. so i woke up very late today.. something like 12+.. the effect of the tablet was super strong sia.. made me feel lethargic all day.. still sneezing non-stop (someone missing me??) and coughing.. croacking like a frog :( can't sing and dun even feel like talking.. So today was pretty much spent on the couch, like a couch potato, watching tv, reading magazine and then watched White Noise, on a super lousy VCD replicating the actual scene in a cinema theatre.. u can hear people coughing non-stop (like me) and shadows of people walking here and there.. HaiZ.. lost the mood to watch so pretty much din get the juice of the show.. din know what its all about.. anyway, I think horror movies are all stupid lor.. least not spend the $$ on such a crappy film... Rating: 3/10 Super duper SianZzz...

Oh ya, at least I tidied up my wardrobe today, vacuuming all the dust accumulated at the bottom.. sorted and hang up the clothes according to categories.. Believe tats the only productive thing i've done for the day.. spent the rest of the evening watching tv, making some earrings to get ready for the bazaar sale.. having a headache as to how to spend the day tomolo and onwards.. no more helping out at the ccc, no more waking up b4 daybreak liao.. finding myself at a loss.. dunno what to do.. no choice, have to find some activities liao.. nothing else to report here, i'll stop now to go snooze..

My 2-week assignment is done

Finally finished my 2-weeks stance at Happy Family CCC.. had helluva fun yet had to get up every morning before daybreaks.. the work was tough yet was filled with enjoyment.. never knew that cooking food for 80 people is so much fun.. satisfaction arises whenever the food is cooked and the dishes are done.. seeing the kitchen sparkling clean after a day's work is one joyous thing.. hearing people complimenting that the food is nice is another happiness.. I got a farewell gift from Teacher Evon and Teacher Celine.. So I really enjoyed my stay and will certainly miss everyone, esp my "baobei" ~ Little XueNing.. Learnt alot of stuff too.. Now i can cut vege/meat faster, nicer and learnt how to make nice soups and dishes.. Recap:

Saturday
Somehow feel tat my writing skill deteriorates.. too long never do project liao kekekeZz.. Got my cert flown in thru DHL from UWA.. Finally can declare myself a graduate when the cert is finally safely in my hands.. but then, it looks like a cheap piece of paper, with no transcript and the paper is darn THIN.. much thinner than my O Level cert.. KAOZ.. 20 over k for this cheap piece of paper :( Nonetheless, having it is better than none kekekez...

Morning woke up to make a delivery then went compass pt meet up lilian for lunch @ BK and a quick shopping.. pei her bot a top from echo then myself try out some clothes at pepperplus.. saw the crinkled skirt there, quickly sms sis who is looking for something like tat.. sis came to join at 3.15pm while lilian went for her facial.. she try out the skirts but the sizes dun fit.. end up, i bot a top and a crinkled skirt, both in black, blew 58 bucks.. before tat i also bot a tank top from 77th street and a cap from OP.. total spent 103 bucks today.. weep weep.. next stop to tampines, pei sis for her car servicing.. waited abt 25 mins while sipping tea at a nearby coffeeshop.. went home to meet up the rest for a family dinner at geylang.. everyone was there, including sis-in-law's younger bro.. total 9 persons.. our family seems to be growing in size kekekez.. had a fantastic dinner on dad's house (he struck lottery WAHAHAHAAA) then to suntec for a quick shopping at carrefour.. din buy anything as the Q was terribly long and everyone was pretty tired.. so we went home empty handed.. had a small "argument" with mama so we din talk in the car.. was it called an argument even..? I din even speak when she was nagging to go home yet sis did not pick up the phone after we split... and she told me off when i told sis she wanted to go home badly.. i really dunno wat i did wrongly.. but just kept quiet all the way to reduce FIRE... such a tiring day for me, one whole day seemingly nonstop walking.. my runny nose came back and i was sneezing nonstop and something like 5 times in a row.. then the cough became worse.. so dry my throat and i am croaking like FROG.. took a flu pill and gg to Zzzz soon.. miss miss my "baobei" again..

Friday
Last day at CCC... Had to work extra today as the afternoon cleaner aunty is on leave.. Cooked fried rice.. it was such a chore as we had to fry the rice in separate, smaller portions.. i think we fry abt 10 times before finally completing the big tub.. Hand aching from the chore :( but fun :) Cooked winter melon soup too.. yummy.. I took alot of rice as well.. maybe the chores made me hungry.. not forgeting i washed the toilet and mopped the floor too... OT for me.. we worked nonstop till 4.30pm.. even had to visit ntuc to buy groceries for next week.. we took back 2 trolleys of supplies and spent abt 200 bucks.. it was a tiring day yet i was filled with some sadness as i wont be coming back on a regular basis from next week.. wont get to see the kids play and my "baobei" as regularly liao :( had to leave abruptly as we had to buy the air tickets from Valuair b4 their office closes at 5.30pm.. reached TPY HDB Hub but couldnt find which wing is Valuair located.. after a tough search, we finally reached the place at 5.15pm and was supposed to be one of the last customers they served for tat day.. finally confirmed our tickets and WE ARE FLYING TO HK!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!! Went home after that.. Nigel came, then we, the trio went KFC for dinner...

Thursday
Today cooked sausages in tomato sauce with a very nice soup tat i cant rem.. dunno why, maybe i was hungry and i had 2 helpings of the rice with sausages, in kid's size of course la kekeZ.. After a day's work, just relax into an afternoon break, looking thru newspapers ads for jobs and HK tour packages.. called a few agencies to check prices and also airlines on ticket fares.. found tat valuair offers cheaper HK fare rate than other airlines, even JetStarAsia cannot match.. then realise that Tiger Airways does not fly to HK.. accomodation wise will decide on a cheaper motel in Kowloon island, quite convenient location and each person pays only S$30-S$40 per night.. After work, went home for dinner, then cant rem what else i did.. kekekeZzz...

Wednesday
Cooked Noodle soup, nice ~ ~ ^_^ my running nose was gone temporarily but a dry cough came.. now my throat is hurting badly.. I start croaking.. went out at 1.30pm to catch movie "Lemony Snicket - A series of unfortunate events".. cinema not packed, still alot of students as it was a weekday and the ticket price is still at a low $6.50.. Dear readers, pls do not spend your hard-earned on this BORING show.. i wouldnt say its LOUSY as it isnt tat bad.. but then, it is really meaningless and I can hardly laugh at any of the so-called FUNNY SCENES.. Jim Carey's acting is just ordinary-Carey, nothing surprising and definitely no breakthrough.. In all, it is just a BORING show to me.. I kept looking at my watch and cant wait for it to end ASAP.. when it finally drew curtains, I am the first 3 to leave the theatre.. Rating: 4/10 ~ In danger of making you fall asleep.. Zzzzzz~... Went to Fox and grabbed a top and 2 skirts, all in black and blew 95 bucks.. heartpain but really love all those things I've bot.. Went back to ccc to have fun with the kids after their afternoon nap.. then took sis' car to Hougang mall as I had to make a delivery of a $30 sales.. Met lilian coincidently and we went for a quick shopping at mall but parted abruptly due to some "mishaps" WAHAHA.. not serious la.. just that she wanted to leave time for me to pei my sis who has grown suddenly cold.. After delivery, met mama at Hg plaza for dinner.. we had western food, then fernie came abit later to collect another 54 bucks sale from me.. she ate dinner with us then sis drove her home b4 we went home ^_^

TheSe Few DayZzz

Tuesday
Here am I blogging.. just finished work.. today had a GREAT day too ^_^.. we prepared kaya bread as breakfast and chicken/fish porridge as lunch for the kids.. we had beehoon for breakfast and tabao vege rice for lunch.. while the kids slept at 1pm, I eat lunch, read newspapers and my basic theory book till they wake up at 3.30pm to play with the younger kids.. really LOVE those N1 kids.. like XueNing, Ariel and Mingli kekekekZ.. i think XueNing has fallen in love with me as she kept looking out for me, blah blah blah with me (she cant speak properly yet) and sitting on my lap.. i think I have FALLEN IN LOVE with her liao KekekekkeeZzzz.. Only 1hr of fun and we have to leave home.. I am feeling pretty tired too as the running nose is still runny.. but feeling much better than yest as I wore a jacket today.. It was a great day nonetheless.. Rating: 8/10

I had dinner liao and gg to shower soon.. had to pop another tablet and sleep early tonite.. maybe will read my theory book and do some new earrings before i turn in ;) Read on.. on wat i was up to for the past few days ^_^

Monday
Wake up early for work and late as usual.. We had fruity bread for breakfast and gave the kids cornflakes and milk.. prepared nasi lemak for lunch.. there was alot of work, cutting fishcakes, hotdogs and making egg slices.. It was a great day nonetheless, saying hi to the kids and playing with them during their break time.. while they were sleeping at 1pm, i sneaked out for an afternoon movie, HITCH.. the cinema was unusually crowded with many school kids turning up for the same movie, catching it during its first week of opening.. i was seated along the aisle, beside and behind a group of sec sch students who were there to watch, in a LARGE GROUP.. and i tell you, they STINK!!! it reminded me of my sec sch days too.. the kinda smell, you just cant describe and can only name it as THE SCHOOL SMELL..

okie, it was GOOD, 2nd GOOD movie i've watched in 2 days.. romantic? yes.. sweet? yes.. the thing about romantic comedies is that they capture the hearts of all female audience.. watched 50 first dates? enjoyed it? Ya..! Rating: 8/10.. Though it is funny but i do at times drift away from the conversations and they get bored sometimes as you can expect wat they'll say.. but then, generally, its a good movie to catch on a lazy weekend.. I took bus 88 home alone as sis had to sign her appointment letter after work.. reached home and start working on my orders.. finished them on time for dinner at sakae sushi.. head to bro's house after tat.. had a really runny nose, pop a flu pill and slept after shower..

Sunday
Wake up not so early, rush down to chinatown to buy supplies for new orders.. after tat went to PS meet lian-jie and terrence for movie Constantine.. before tat, we went Mrs Fields for a small tea break.. i had a milk tea and they had coffee.. we ordered 3 muffins of 3 different flavours, chocolate chips, cheese and macademia nuts.. i think i prefer choco chips more while they prefer the macademia one.. then we went shopping.. we bot pants at U2 at 50% discount using my bday voucher.. then i bot a top at Esprit and paid only $2.93! It already has 30% discount then i also had my Esprit credit card points to redeem in value WAHAHAHAAA....

The movie was GOOD.. GOOD storyline, (abit chim as it was talking abt Christianity most of the times) GOOD acting, HANDSOME actor, GOOD sequence of events.. it kept me glued to the screen and listened to the conversations, esp when my idol talks ^_^ he is still so handsome since his SPEED days.. and the movie i loved most was A WALK IN THE CLOUDS.. watched before?? I watched it in 1996 and it remained UNFORGETABLE.. Rating: 8.5/10.. Had dinner at Yoshinoya and went home afterwards.. It was a fabulous day :)

Now and Then ~ xCBs

Rainbow's Bday Celebration

So i left home after 6pm.. Happen to meet rainbow at Hougang Station.. I got company for the train ride, of course, as usual, rainbow told me lots of stories with exaggerated expressions ^_^ This gal has never grown up a single day since sec sch.. you know, she's still the same, very much the caixia i know in 1993 -_- We walked all the way to Heeren from Dhoby Ghaut, had to keep chris and cobin waiting.. the restaurant was pretty packed and we had to wait for a table.. anyway, we din wait long as the couple was seated and even ordered while we were shopping kekekeZzzz... good "excuse" to say ringing tone was weak WAHAHHAAA....

I can say I, or rather, we, had a good dinner.. I love this dinner as it wasnt too heavy, unlike any other western food we've tasted for other occasions.. we had tom yam soup, thai fish cake, thai honey chicken and hot plate tofu.. it was a splendid choice and wasnt too ex.. 15 bucks for each.. COOLZzz... Rating: 9.5/10... rainbow put on the jewellery set which i made and chriS paid.. I still think she looks better in baby blue, but then, she liked it so it was a good choice afterall ^_^ after dinner, we went for a quick shopping at CHAOS.. walau, the clothes are indeed CHAOS.. loop holes everywhere, just like the law WAHAHAAA... walked to Taka Giordano for the gentleman to get his socks.. then crossed opp to Paragon Coffeebeans.. this is where the fun begun! we had a lot of fun cracking silly jokes, making fun of kp, making fun of rainbow, and the most exciting event of the day: piX taking ^_^ of course, we took alot of fun piX like xi, nu, ai, le.. the innocent, slutty, gong look etc.. couple shots, commercial ads, etc... Fun level: 10/10.. we split ard 11.30pm.. rainbow and i walked back to DG station for the last train home.. lucky, we were able to make it on time, and was in fact, 3 mins early :) of course, i took the last connecting LRT back and made it home b4 1am..

It was a peaceful day.. no action, unlike last week dancing and drinking in CB.. it was a good way to spend a sat evening.. its been ages since i last sip coffee and chat with frens in coffee chains.. i missed those days with JK&gang, where our rest days were spent in cafes.. with AL was sipping fruit juices at Esplanade WAHAHA... thinking of the past brings back nostalgic emotions.. Today would be different if we were still together, coz we will be celebrating our first anniversary instead.. As I told rainbow on the train, it would take me a long time to heal completely before i could accept another guy into my life.. Better shut up now =X

Back to Happy Family on Friday ^_^

Kids make me smile.. and I think i've fallen in love with some of them, esp those 2yr+ ones in N1 class.. we overslept on fri and woke up at 6.45am for the 7am shift!! OMG!! in a hurry, we left home at 7.07am.. reached bishan only at 7.45am.. 2 pratas for breakfast followed by the usual routine, preparing for breakfast and lunch.. breakfast for the kids was egg mayo sandwich.. well, i made those sandwiches of course ^_^ "Biz" was rather good, the kids finished almost everything!! Lunch was chicken rice with soy sauce chicken and tofu & salted vege soup.. the entire pot of soup was almost gone and seeing those kids eating and making themselves dirty is real great fun!! Justin is as usual, naughty, XueNing likes me more and Ariel is talking to me non-stop hahaha... CUTE :) alot of dishes to wash and somehow, I felt I am feeling better at the ccc yest... at 1.30pm, I drop by Liping's place just opp to ccc for an afternoon facial.. it felt good to be back, as according to her records, the last time I was there was in Oct 2003!! That was such a long time ago.. well, last yr was really a very busy yr for me.. have to cope with work, studies and bf/breakup.. this yr, i am left with nothing except one thing on my mind: finding a job... i'm sure the road ahead will be better ^_^

We knock off at 4.30pm but left abit later... send tr cao's son home to punggol then to kovan for sis' massage while i window shopped at heartland mall.. she finished at 7.40pm and we left for serangoon garden meeting mum and nigel for dinner at chomp chomp.. dinner was bbq fish, kailan, satay, satay beehoon, hokkien mee, cockles, chicken wings, and sugar cane juice.. we left home for the 9pm show.. i smelt like a bbq fish in the car kekekeZzz... after the show and shower, we play card games again.. and i lost $1.80 :( tired, slept at midnight


catching N1 kids at lunch.. see, they are sooo cute ^_^ they made themselves very dirty during lunch, rice on their heads, sauch all over their mouths/clothes, hands dirtied etc KekekeZzzz... You've heard of parents screaming at their children who refuse to eat, but u ever seen children who eat so much tat the teachers worry that they might get indigestion..??

This is XueNing, my favourite ^_^ Look at those big eyes.. hey, this gal is chinese but she is born in France okie!! perhaps her mother drank too much water from the French Alps and she is born this cute.. Eyes so round and lashes so long..!! You can place toothpicks on top!!! but she has a huge appetite and can eat ALOT!!! hahahaa.. plump and really sweet to look at.. but sadly she has slight speech problem and cant speak well.. her family doc says though she is 2yrs+ but she has intelligence of an 18 month :( But i really like her.. and hope i can have a kid who is as CUTE as her.. and i love holding her!!!!!!! May God bless tat she can grow up normally and will be an intelligent gal in future :)


these children just round up, stand straight when they heard me wanting to take pics kekekez... their actions are so CUTE, i tell you ^_^ From left: Ariel's cousin, Ariel, XueNing and Mingli.. Ariel can sure speak well for a 2-yr+ kid.. clear talking and she is very active.. naughty as described by sis.. but i like her too.. she wants me to carry her all the time hahhaa.. Mingli, she cant talk much but loves to smile ^_^

More pics to come next week :)

Sick Bay

Planning to catch French movie, A very long Engagement, yesterday, which din realise.. gastric pain struck on tue nite.. took 2 doses of mother's special green powder mix for gastric flu, which din work.. it got worse on wed morning after breakfast.. my stomach became so bloated tat it felt like exploding.. my jeans became extremely tight all of a sudden.. felt like bursting.. a timebomb seems to be planted, waiting to explode.. i felt terrible.. helping at the kitchen, i lost strength and concentration.. sis fried pieces of chicken, which the oily smell almost made me puke.. then she made sweet and sour sauce that is even worse for me.. i couldnt stay in the kitchen for another second, so i dashed out to ntuc to get a medicated oil and po chai pills, + a tube of sweets.. couldnt take lunch and even water.. felt terrible every second.. yet i stayed till 1pm to help out, before heading home, taking 156 on my own.. felt asleep on the bus..

Finally struggled home, using my balance strength.. mum passed me dad's gastric pills, i took 2 and slept.. slept and slept.. woke up at 8+ to shower, was forced to take some food, but i dun feel hungry at all.. watched the 9pm show then back to rest.. can rem that i dun have any strength at all.. much less to see the doc.. mum kept screaming at me.. felt a little frustrated when even you are sick, she still scream at you.. for not seeing the doc.. din she realise that i dun even have strength to talk.. how to walk to the clinic like this..?? so i retreated back to my room to rest&tear.. hoping life would be better soon..

Woke up this morning feeling better.. miss the ccc and those kids.. i think i would love to go back there and play with them.. ya, would be gg back tomolo ^_^ nothing much to do, i went to mall and transfer some cash to my bank acc.. my goodness, realise tat it was left with less than 200 bucks before the transfer.. haiZzzzz.. rented a video "Riding in Cars with Boys" starring drew barrymore.. the show is only so-so but drew's performance is commendable, as usual.. i like her esp in 50 first dates.. rating for the show: 6.5/10 quite boring.. back to rest now and hopefully can watch another movie tomolo :)

First 2 days of Adventure at Happy Family ^_^

Remebered waking up at 3.30pm on Sunday.. reckoned I stayed at hone all day, cant rem what I did.. at night, sis informed her ccc's aunty is down with dengue and will be resting at home for 2 weeks.. poor sis, had to cover up for aunty again.. so much work to do.. cleaning, cooking + doing her usual stuff as a ccc principal.. being a smart alice, I offered my help for the first day.. who knows, it began my 2 weeks assignment at Happy Family Child Care Centre as "New Aunty On Da Block"..

Woke up at 6.35am on Monday.. that was before daybreak.. only can rem myself still wide awake at this hour, and not just waking up.. took sis' car to Bishan.. began our day's work shortly upon arrival.. breakfast was served at 9am, courtesy of Nigel, sis' bf.. he's so nice to bring breakfast for almost everyone at the ccc... we had fried bee hoon with fishcake and chicken wing! Such a spread! I dun eat such heavy breakfast, yet I finished it all.. cant imagine sis' ex being so good to her.. offered to get her breakfast despite himself rushing for work.. hahaha... such a good bf, I ALSO WANT ^_^ So, sis will be the chef for the next 2 weeks.. I am the kitchen assistant for same period!! Initially I had wanted to help whenever I felt like it.. sis' boss asked her if a part timer is needed to cover aunty's work, but she wanted me to help instead, so I agreed to the assignment and her boss agreed to pay me a small amount returning the favour.. breakfast of biscuits and milk was served to the kids at 9am.. lots of cups to wash.. started to prepare lunch and the ingredients for the next day.. at 11am, chicken stew, white rice and lotus root soup were served.. it is simply DELICIOUS :) never tot sis could cook so well as she almost doesnt do it at home kekeZzz.. lunch was served from 11-12pm to abt 70 children.. lots of bowls to wash.. it was all manual work yet the environment is really happy and i get to see lots of KIDS which made me even happier ^_^

Things start to get less busy after washing up.. at 1+, i went out to J8 for movie Hide and Seek alone.. a suspense thriller.. it keeps me glued to the screen from the beginning to the end.. Loved this scene the most: Music playing and the screen was showing Dakota Fanning's view towards the sky as backdrop and tree branches revolving while her onscreen mum spinned her on the merry-go-round with her lying down.. its at the beginning of the movie.. Fanning is such a good actress at a young age.. THUMBS UP for her performance.. think she outshone Robert DeNiro.. 9/10 for her performance and 8/10 for the movie.. Not gonna reiterate the ending of the story, its for those interested to find out.. but its a good movie to me, much better than those senseless horror films.. Back to ccc after the movie, sat ard for an hr before joining sis and colleague to compass pt.. bot a pair of bossini jeans for 26.40 nia.. altering and will be collecting these few days.. RATING FOR THE DAY: 8/10 FRUITFUL

Today, Tuesday, begins my 2nd day at HF CCC.. more familiar of the routine than yesterday and able to execute my tasks faster.. got to know some of the kids, the cute ones, naughty ones, talkative ones, playful ones, etc.. they are all CUTE to me, esp a few of them.. those in playgroup and N1.. only slightly more than 2 years old and totally cute.. Amalia shouting I WANT PANCAKES! cute.. XueNing, the big-eyed "Pang Niu" started talking to me.. MingLi, the cute thingy who cant really talk.. Jerilyn the sweet baby.. Wayne, the handsome young boy who always passed by the kitchen, waving to me and say "Hi Wendy!", Novelle, the pretty 7-yr-old who stayed at my house twice, including last Sat when I was out at CB.. and JUSTIN! The 2-yr-old TERROR!! breakfast for me was a Sausage McMuffin with coffee, for the kids was cornflakes with milk.. lunch was fish porridge and agar-agar.. tea break for today is pancakes and chrysanthemum tea, whlie yest was kaya bread with milk, which i missed out earlier.. less busy after 2pm.. i read my papers and did some designing while waiting to go home.. knock off time at 4.30pm.. we went to ntuc and bot chicken rice home..
