Hello! I'm back! =D

Well, been wanting to update for quite some time already, but the thought of blogging after a day of work just makes sian. Hence shelved the idea till now.

So, let's see.. One-month hiatus from blogging..

09.09.2010

It's the day - Apple and Oto's wedding. Joined in (not really =X) the fun in the morning. It's my first time experiencing these, hehs. The ceremony and everything were simple. Didn't expect to receive red packets though. Thanks auntie and Oto! =D When auntie passed the red packet to me, I was like, "uh..? o_O". It was only shortly after that that I realised the purpose of it, lol. *blur* And for the first time, I felt a sudden surge of family warmth when Oto gave me the red packet. It's like, I'm being recognised more like a family already. =X

Did some simple make-up for the dinner in the evening. Didn't dare to try the eyeshadow until Lyn agreed to experiment it on herself, lol. =X Thanks Lyn, for giving me the courage to apply that, though they were covered by my fringe. =X Guess I need to learn from Lyn already. She's never applied eyeshadow before, but she's courageous enough to try out for a wedding dinner. *pei fu*

Dinner was held at My Humble House at Esplanade. The ambience there was quite nice. =) And the price was rather an affordable one considering the area that it's located at. One thing that I've yet to experience until that day is that the food there were served individually. A rather good concept I would say. Overall, the food were quite nice, except for the shark's fin soup which doesn't taste at all like a shark's fin soup. =\ My favourite food was the fish with the sake sauce, if I remember correctly. It just tastes heavenly! =D And it's probably due to them serving individually that I already felt full into the fourth dish. =X

On the other hand, I think I dressed too nicely, all thanks to dear. =( He wore a blazer and of course, I have to match what he's wearing.


10.09.2010

It's Uncle Peter's birthday. Couldn't celebrate this time round as he's being hospitalised. Been making it a point to remember and celebrate his birthday since two years ago. That was something which we've not done until two years ago. It all started because it was then that I know not to regret only after losing one. Yep, that phrase woken me after the sudden loss of Uncle Mao. No one remembered his last birthday, which was not long before he left us. I only remember younger brother buying a birthday cake for Uncle Mao once. That was a year or two before he passed away. Yep, that's the only time.

Anyway, I so happened to chanced upon Uncle Peter's IC some time later, hence got to know his birth date. I really really hope miracle can happen. I know it ain't easy, Uncle. However, you made it through stages and stages. You really have a strong will. Please don't give up, alright?

Actually I'm really touched by two of uncle's friends. They've been by uncle's side all along and never left him. Such friends are really hard to come by and are the envy of many. Thanks uncles, you've been really great!


13.09.2010

Was kinda "forced" to go out with aunties - my three aunts. =X Normally when my aunt asks me to accompany her for shopping during her off days, I'll reject her straight, lol. But this time round, third aunt was in Singapore, plus second aunt ain't working today, hence decided to accompany them. But of course, that's only part of the reason. The other reason was because aunt offered to bring us to the casino at Marina Bay Sands. Hehs. =D

Aunt's also "zhen shi de". It's only until I've got myself changed and am prepared to set off that she told me we can't enter the casino in shorts. -_-" Had no choice but to change, and she just keep rushing me, making me forgot this and that. Grrr..!! Anyways, off we went to the hospital to visit Uncle first. Saw his friend there and he offered to drive us to Marina Bay Sands as he's on the way. That's really nice of him. =D

Reached the entrance of the casino and off we went to pay the entrance fee, fully sponsored by aunt. =D While waiting for the staff (A) to proceed with our registration, another staff (B) came by and asked the staff (A) if I'm 21 years old already. lolx. =X

Finally entered the casino afterwhich. Another first-time experience again. =D Third aunt got the ball rolling and played jackpot, and yep, she got it. It's only her first try, mind you! Ain't she lucky? >.< She went to collect her winnings and sponsored me to play, hehs. She must have passed some of her luck to me that I managed to hit jackpot too - once before lunch and another after lunch. Really a happy girl that day. Hehs. =D

Went OG at Bugis afterwhich, then off to Uncle's optical shop to collect third aunt's spectacles. It's just so amazed that I could find the way to Uncle's shop without problem. Gotta thanks dear for this because he brought me to eat curry chicken mee at nearby before. *good sense of direction, right? =P*

Shared my joy with dear later in the evening, then phoned Pei Er for a chat, which lasted for more than two hours. Hah. I wonder why there's always so much things to chat with her, or rather, craps with her. lolx. Well, part of the conversation's about us further studying. Gal, you should really go for psychology and not wait for me for accountancy. Your interest lies there, not in accountacy. Besides, don't waste what you've studied in MDIS. >.<

Apart from that, we've also discussed about the chance of going for a holiday with the girls. So time to save up yea? Yan Ling should be alright with the idea I guess. So, girls - Mei Bao and Cynthia - how about both of you? =) I reckon I'll be available only until I graduated. Will it be too long for you girls? >.<

Anyway, another plan is to participate in the marathon next year. But Pei Er wants me to go all the way to her area for training. No, please. =( That's too far for me already.


20.09.2010

Started work at a motor car insurance company. 5.5 days work week. Kinda no life I must say. =\ Thanks dear for making it a point to bring me out for relaxation every week. ❤


01.10.2010

Results were released. Did quite well overall, with GPA increasing each semester. Hopefully this continues. One module that gave me a huge shock was Business Communications - a module that I never thought I'll do well. Seriously, I really felt I did rather poorly for the last few assessments. For this, I must really thank our "ang moh lao shi", Mr Taylor. Thanks for being so lenient. =) It's really great to be taught by him. But sadly, it's his final semester in the school already. And now, he's back to his homeland, USA.


10.10.2010

Had a really huge scare in the evening. =( Thankfully, Uncle's alright shortly after. I'm glad dear's with me at that point in time, else I really don't know what to do.

I'm so sorry dear, that I've been "flooding" your clothes with my tears recently. You know, I always had to hold my tears until we met because I just felt comfortable to cry out with you by my side. But at the same time, I do feel bad too. I know you'll be at a loss of what to do. =( And yes, I felt really loved the other day, if you know which day I'm referring to. Thanks dear! ❤


11.10.2010

Finally got the chance to choose our time-table today. As expected, it was really due to our exemptions for the past three semesters that we couldn't get to choose our time-table until this time round. Took half-day leave to settle this, and guess what, I completed my selection at 10.01am! lolx. This one minute surely cost me dearly. -_- Decided to take full-day leave shortly after as I didn't have enough rest the previous night. Besides, I think this is kinda a well-deserved rest after three weeks of no-life life. This is what dear had advised me too, right? =)


19.10.2010

Last day of work. Kinda can't bear to leave, lol. Well, I guess it's a norm that one tends to feel this way when they left a job.

Gained quite "some" weight during the period because I had my lunch late. Then, can't resist the temptation of getting some bites on the way home since I'll always have to get through the food area on the way to the bus stop. Had my dinner shortly afterwhich. Hmm, so let's see.. Two meals plus some snacks within six hours. That surely explains the weight that I gained!

Dear forbids me to go on a diet. =( So I shall only eat less, and light, as suggested by him. Hopefully my tummy fats will go away soon, too. I really hate the sight of it. =(


22.10.2010

Plan was foiled. =( Nevertheless, part of the plan was accomplished. That is, to get a bag. =)

Saw a departmental store when we reached 313 @Somerset. Initially, I had only wanted to look around. Then, dear saw a heels (or was it called a boots?) and asked me to try on. However, my shoe-size was out of stock in this outlet, hence was told to check out the outlet at ION instead. Well, I guess nice things just aren't for me. It was out of stock in this outlet as well.

Anyway, I thought it was supposed to be a trip to get my stuffs? But dear end up getting more stuffs than me instead. Hah! But well, it's not very often that he takes a liking to something. So yep, he should really get them if he likes them. =)

Oh, by the way, dear's been dreaming these two days. Hah! But it's a positive thing. Just hope things go smoothly for him. You've got my support okay, dear? =)


23.10.2010

School's starting soon. My only regret for the previous semester was my failure to do my best for Cost Accounting. Sighs.

Oh well, I just hope history will not repeat itself for the upcoming semester, as well as future semesters. Hopefully everything goes smoothly.
