• upsetting.

    today, 2 people made me upset. because they say i am sucha a slacker. that i didn’t put in effort to make myself look good. and that i didn’t train/tone myself to make myself look gorgeous when i should. and that i am too relaxed. and that i shouldn’t be like that. but.. but.. aint i gorgeous enough?! (LOL) anyways, i am still VERY affected because they make me feel so small. and fat. and flabby. and ugly. and the 2 of them (shall call them the a-kohs) kept on going on and on about it. hey.. the 2 of them 夫唱妇随 lor! [this is my secret revenge] and because…

  • some random musings

    yesterday. i turned up at work with a pink boat-neck sweater (3/4 sleeve) and a grey pencil skirt. andy came up to me and asked me what’s wrong. have i joined the aunties’ gang? Grrr… Errrm. i just wanted to fend off the cold in the office and it can be quite a hassle to keep wearing/taking off my jacket. and i was just thinking to myself in the morning that i looked rather proper – typical OL look. blah. // and today. the new word of the century – 弟夫!! it’s hilarious, because agnes had wanted to say 姐夫, but couldn’t find the word and blurted that out instead.…

  • a little laughter

    just remembered a little joke that made me smile this morning. it happened during the car washing trip in JB. we didn’t have a lot of ringgit and it was too late to go to the money changer’s. I had RM$200 and was wondering if it was sufficient for the lok lok meal for 3, car wash and the petrol refuelling for 2 cars, and agnes said, “no worries, i got Rm$100!” and so we went, and after filling our stomach with lok lok, here’s what happened! A: I’ll pay. i got Rm$100. C: Don’t be silly, let me pay. i have more money A: It’s ok. It’s ok. C:…

  • the past weekend

    i seemed to be forever chasing my blog entries these days. i never really get the chance or time to blog when i want to or when i have the inspiration.. and i am beginning to find it a mere ‘obligation’ to update my blog after a while, because i update because i have to. well, don’t get me the wrong way. i’m just feeling obligated to myself because the whole idea of having my own blog is to keep snippets of my life so that i can read it some years later. so, i do hope there’s no long lapse between my entries and my life is being tracked.…

  • uh huh..

    the weekend is gone and life goes on…. (hey, it sorta rhymes!) while i was on medical leave last friday, i was drifting in and out of sleep while struggling to get some work done and my ad signed off(!). der was practically staring at me sleep the entire day and he kept urging me to shut the com and get some proper rest. well, the most happening thing was that we caught transformers over the weekend. it was also a healthy weekend because der clocked some miles in his run and we went swimming where i swam 22 laps and did some late night bowling with agnes and friends.…

  • sunday afternoon

    i had to lug my good friends along for my hula hoop search on sunday afternoon! and because they are so nice, they don’t mind me dragging them around the island (i hope!). haha. i don’t know why, but i was SO SO hungry in the afternoon and had to order some food to eat. realised that TCC was getting really ex in their food section and i had half the mind the entire time to go grab a $3 burger from mos. yeah. these days, i’m trying to be on budget. am spending wayyyy too much in the past 6 months. and holy shit! i just realised that i…

  • the sat night fun at marina barrage.

    it was my virgin trip there. an impromptu one though, because i would have lugged my SLR there if i had known about the trip. anyhow, the place was nothing to boot about. it just had a nice view of downtown, complete with the singapore flyer and “sea” view. the place was overly crowded to be enjoyable, people are talking loudly, kids running around, teenagers playing a fool with their friends.. and a few quiet couples trying to be romantic amidst the noise. for agnes, der and me… it’s just picture moments with my shoddy panasonic lumix. view full set of pictures here the night ended with shopping at mustafa.…

  • chilling at seletar dam.

    i have been wanting to get my taste buds on bewurztraminer wine (with hints of lychee) for the longest time. haven’t had it for ages and last week, i dragged der to go chill. only to find the wine haunt really packed, so i carried away 3 bottles of this goodness! i asked agnes to join us and we ended up chilling at seletar dam, complete with my picnic basket, ice box (to chill the wine), wine glasses, floor mat, and chairs… and my nikon d80. i totally forgot to bring my scrabble there or any board games to just ease the time. only got my nds which had agnes…

  • the surprise..

    i sprung a surprise on der last saturday. or rather a double surprise because i thought it would be great for his dad’s birthday as well. i dragged him outta bed at 10am on the basis that i had to collect some accessories for work in the west and he had to drive me there. it was such a feat to pull it through cos he kept asking questions like, why must collect on saturday? why so early? what is it for? why no one else can collect? what accessories? why you need the accessories? -_-” thank goodness that i was quite busy last week, so i said it was…
