new baby!

baby arrived today!! super exciting... we basically chose the simple version, no side skirts no nothing except for the leather seats... but i luv the colour... super bright, super young.. bring a few yr off my dad's age haha... switching over to this car wasnt easy, i miss the old car tooo... wanna cry initially coz i got so used to that car. i shant think so much into that now or my tears wanna flow again.. i shall b extremely careful with that car.. no1 shall slam the door or anything lidat!! my heart dropped the other night when some1 SLAMMED the door shut! it was so loud that i thought the door would have dropped off..

something realli weird happened this morning as my bro drived us to pickl up the new car.. the old car made ALOT of noise.. the air-con n everything started to REBEL! can u believe it? it probably knew that we gotta leave him after 10 odd years... so ke lian...... but i should realli stop thinking of the old car. it isnt gotta come back... sob sob...

kinda long day

went to one of my colleague's wedding last night.

b4 that went to do my nails n trim my hair... in a super rush... coz i was supposed to go for my manicure @ 3pm. den 2.50 still at home talking to mama on the phone. apparently, my bro n her had an agruement the night b4. n i was the middle person trying to resolve it. i dun ever wanna get involved in another 'middle-man' situation. den 3.10 still at home trying to do the finishing touches on my make-up. finally, got out of the house n walked across the str for my manicure.. though it was super quiet it was taking ages for the manicurist to get started. 1stly, i couldnt decide on e colour, coz i needed something to match the clothes i was wearing the my pedicure which i did last week. den no choice, choose the same colour lo.. confirm wun go wrong 1. after finishing, i feel like a high-maintainance woman, coz the nail colour is sooooooo rich. its a shiny shiny brown. super nice. nv tried brown on my nails b4. n now they r matching. heh! my manicurist is super nice lady, when i was trying to blow dry my nails she offered me a slice of cake?! i mean she's nice coz i was actually kinda hungry but i couldnt eat with my hands n risk destroying the nail colour right?!

anyway by the time i was done, its was 4.15pm n i had an appt at 4.30 with my hairdresser @ orchard. how could i appear in orchard w/i 15 mins when i was still in clementi?
1. to drive myself
2. to take a cab
3. hack the appt time

well, firstly, i DUN own a car, secondly, i didnt have excess cash for a car n cab fare.. so hack the appointment time la...

but when i got to the hairdresser's super pai say coz i was 3/4 an hour late!! but super lucky she juz finished cutting hair for another customer n she quickly applied the treatment cream n cut my hair for me! hehe so much for going back to her most of the time. she's a super nice lady, always ask how i've been lately. the modern modern kind. den she see me dress so nice ask if i was going out n attempted to curl my hair, do something alittle different.

by the time i was done i was all set to see the world! hmm... it seems like a super long time ago since i purposely dress up for a special occassion. i think even on my birthday this yr i didnt even do that. next yr, i make sure i do something super nice also.. den muz take plenty plenty of pictures.

anyway, the highlight..
the wedding was held @ grand corporthorne waterfront hotel. that place is gorgeous!! super beautiful especially when they unleashed the garden behing the 'stage' den the lighting kept changing super super romantic... although they didnt have any interesting programs planned, the ambience is good. the 1st few dishes also delicious n honestly, its the 1st time that i tasted food in the ball room that is warm! i always had the dish turned cold b4 it was served.

1. cold appetiser
like what it desrcbed -- cold
personally, i'm NOT a fan of cold dishes. but still a fresh start for dinner.

2. shark fin's soup
hmmm.. this is good, i actually had the nerve to ask for a 2nd bowl!

3. roast chicken
i didnt even touch this. it looked dry n unappealing to me. pls remind me that DUN put this dish in the menu if i ever throw such a dinner

4. drunken prawns
like the description, its realli drunken n the most surprising thing to me is that the shells r actaully peeled! omg, n it can taste sooooooo fresh!! i luv this dish the best!

5. veegie - mushroom n green-leaves
fortunately, they didnt serve brocooli or i probably would have died! n can u believe it the veggie was still kinda warm when i put it into my mouth

6. steamed fish
i got this dislike for steamed fish, i always think that they r all not fresh n reek of the fishy smell.. though this fish didnt have a fishy smell but it didnt taste good @ all.. basically, no taste la.

7. fried udon
this looks okay on the outlook but to me, it didnt have any appealing taste in the mouth. i left most of the noodles untouched.

8. red bean soup
supposedly to be 'tian tian mi mi'. still ok sweetness but super watery. like not enough to go around n dilute with hot water. too bad..

but overall, the service not bad, juz that the waiters got a funny thing. they like to go to ya hear n stand v close to ask if u wan any drinks! weird. but whatever...

all e unlucky losers

free advertisement...

that's for dinner!!

beautiful view over there. i luv it all

on e way to tioman... tanning myself away (extra behind)

where's my baby

think my baby gotta arrive next week.. that's what papa told me. hmm... cant wait for that though. muz b a gorgeous 1.... but e thing is i think with the fuel rates now, i think i gotta die fr paying them.... n to add on what abt parking fees??!! die man.... realli wanna b a rich man's wife now... make my hubby pay for all e installment n miscellanous... den i shall spend all my $$ to beautify myself! heh! it's like suddenly got alot of things to buy n pay for... bills, bills n bills... die la...

let me concentrate on making $$ now, coz he's not gotta give me $$.. sob sob...
gotta prepare things for my meeting... sianzzz

shocking news

yesterday i got a shock of my life.. the lady who bagged the most number of long-service awards in my company passed away in her resident. it appears that she didnt report to work yesterday n didnt answer any of the phone calls my supervisors made. she's the kind who NV goes mia n from what i know she didnt even take mc b4. though i have juz joined the company for abt a yr, i m still kinda shocked that she's no longer around. i dun have much contact with her for she works in the office n is sorta loner.. now waiting for her brother to return to singapore to arrange for her funeral matters. scary. how fragile life can b. well she's been with the company for like 31 yrs n left juz lidat.

like what the other optometrist said yesterday, live everyday like there's no tml, thus she doesnt have savings.. n for me drive w/o looking @ the speedometer.. heh! n for others, eat like there's no tml, regardless of the fat content n cholestrol level, alcohlics drink till ya stomach cant take it... ok la... i'm kidding pls do not do any of the above.. juz let ya loved ones know that u luv them, cherish them n DUN yell @ them, have alot of savings so that they have a bit of back-up when u r no longer around, dun crash the car for they can still drive around in that for at least a feww more yrs, dun eat n drink like nobody's business coz that tears their heart apart. cherish ya life coz that what ya parents gave u.. i realli luv whatever i have now. i think i'm realli blessed.

change of mind

i changed my mind in e end... i went to e airport @ 3am to send wf... i'm not angry with u... shant do that anymore.. how can i not talk to my bestie?! one n only... didnt managed anything much @ e airport...

juz wanna apologise to her for not able to bring him there.. u know how stubborn he can b... but realli i tried to talk him into it.. but the mull juz wun budge... sorry....

looking @ the stressed-up face thinking of what to remove fr e luggage @ e last minute... couldnt help much but juz stared blankly.. every1 couldnt help but become teary-eyed @ the gantry.. soon they all went to catch their flight n me zoomed home to get my beauty sleep...

on my way home, mr ctbf (short form for claim-to-be-fit) put me to the test.. how fast could i get home fr e airport.. in e viewpoint of putting up a fight i think what i did was reasonable.. but of coz as a lady even though i started serveral hundred metres ahead, still cant win him la.. i not driving lambo or even a sporty lancer lei... what's more old car cannot fly 1.. muz act according what type of car u r driving.. of coz mine is to b slow n steady la! @ 120km/h also cannot catch up la... but at least it kept me awake @ 4 plus.. b4 i knew it i got home in abt 20mins i think..

for spinning around e whole night lidat, i think my petrol more than $30!! omg... super expensive petrol lo... wanna die fr paying petrol...

slow motioned

i feel fat n lethargic... its a sickening feeling... muz b the weather n all e sleep i have been getting today... stupid weather, put me off shopping today!!! urgh.... wanted to go to my hairdresser to do my hair too... but stupid la... by the time my manicurist was done it was 3pm alreadi... n i haven had lunch.. super hungry n cold by the time i was done... almost shivering like the time i was driving in jb... n some1 got angry bcoz i got behind e wheel... all thanks to pk forcing me to the driver's seat. haiz... dun say liaoz its okay liaoz... but i haven forget, i m still cursing the 1 who picked up e motorola hp!! who cares abt bad karma coz that person gotta b worse off..

thinking back abt today... all e slow motions is linked to something realli impt -- post-holiday blues!! no doubt abt it... hmmm... get hit by blues so easily, what if i m pregnant ?!! pre-natal blues, post-natal blues, stretch mark blues etc etc etc... omg.. looks like another blue is boiling now depression blues!

time to go..

i have a fren.. we used to be besties...
she's leaving for uk in 2 days time..
now that we arent that close anymore... i guess i wun b sending her off... mayb the only good-bye she gotta get is here... there's nothing else much, coz i think she's not coming back... she stil got here loudest 9..

lost phone.

hmmm.... e other day @ mersing, a hp was lost... n tha idiot had heart to steal it!! that sure muz b a dishonest idiot!! see expensive hp n steal!! bad karma will go to u! whoever u r!! but anyway even if u luv e new hp den u will have a difficult time attempting to get the charger in m'sia!! lolx.. that hp is considered a limited edition n not a normal motorola charger can be used.. u gotta pay deposit 1st b4 seeing if u can get e charger or not... there will b bad karma....

that hp shall b cursed!! honestly if i cant use it, u cant too!!

but i always believe, 'ying huo de fu' there shall b something better out there...

thank u for creating all these memories
i simply love them all

i shant forget this experience
n i look forward to the next!

3 days @ tioman!

back fr my trip.. been to tioman, not that far but e travelling time is realli terrible.. had to sit thru slightly more than 2 hours sitting in e car, almost 3 hours on the dive boat den can reach e island.. but i muz say ITS WORTH IT!!!

8 of us went, 5 to learn and 3 of us went for leisure dive.. n of coz i m going there for leisure dive!! lolx..

left singapore @ about 10am on 13 sep n had to endure a growling stomach to go mersing for lunch... kept thinking that we would stop for lunch earlier so i refused to open my packet of tiger biscuits which i bought while we were topping up fuel @ the beginning (with compliments of 90 sens from mr claim-to-be-very-fit) but i was wrong... i think i almost fainted during the ride.. finally upon reaching mersing, practically gobbled up my plate of rice with roast chicken, char siew n roasted 3-layered bak -- was told that tioman dun serve pork so i tried eating my 3 days fill of pork... wasnt that great but to settle my stomach i didnt care.. w/i 30 minutes, we boarded e dive boat.. realli anxious to reach the island but knew it gotta take some time so i sat in front to absorb the dry sunlight first.... got bored n tired after a while n went to nap b4 my 1st dive... b4 i knew it, i was woken by mr claim-to-be-very-fit cum dua-sia... kinda forgotten what is it like to dive n how to descend (its been almost 4 months since my forst and last dive) actually i still have the fear that my oxygen supply would die off during my dive. but i convinced myself that i need to get over that n i knew this trip it was it... it was after i put on my weight belt den i got over my sleepiness... n soon all of us were down in e water... i tried descending but water seeped into my mask n immediately i came up to e surface n kana scolded coz i was supposed to clear my mask... but did i forget to mention i hate clearing my mask i realli rather bear with e discomfir of water inside den clear it... okie la, i have this phobia that only more water would enter n stink my eyes... so please dun play with my mask when i m in e water k! after that everything under water was a breeze...

we were supposed to be staying in a chalet but it could only accomate 4 in a room... nice name -- tioman beach resort.. but dun be fooled! i shall post the pic after i get them... basically there's only a queen size bed n 2 singles in e room n a super simple basic toilet inside... i arent complaining but its lidat @ e resorts.. i dun mind coz i m spending @ most 8 hours in the room only...

food there is super simple, i tried fish n chips on e 1st night compliments from mr claim-to-be-very-fit again.... haha... basically its bcoz my shorts dun have pocket n i couldnt carry my $$ with me... that's not an excuse! but boy i was shocked but what came on my plate... its some dunno-what fish dipped in some dunno-what-crumbs n deep-fried... we had 4 plates of roast chicken compliments fr ben n nancy but it was terrible too... those planning to go tioman pls do not go to e 1st restaurant on the left from the jetty if u ever stay @ salang... its a fake impression that e food is good there due to e nicer decor! its not nice @ all... honestly, e only nice thing is e fries..

after that lingered around for a while n went to get some rest.. it was alittle difficult to fall asleep for dunno what reason, but when i finally did so, i was awaken by some1 who was apparently sleep-talking in hokkien! got a little frightened by i simply squeezed my eyes close n make myself go back to my dreams... i didnt wanna meet spooky things in e room..

had to wake up early in e morning to go for breakfast coz we had 3 dives to complete on e 2nd day.. long time since i had to wake up @7 plus so naturally i couldnt wake up to the alarm of 'lao shu ai da mi'... kana scolded again coz i was supposed to wake them up but didnt care.. its wasnt my hp n it wasnt by my bedside... not my fault... i wasnt kana awaken by ppl sleep talking in e middle of e night k!!

can u believe it breakfast consist of what we normally eat @ e 'zi har' stall... e black yellow mee but without prawns n fried bee hoon without bak to make sure our vegeterian dive-mate could eat her heart's fill... not that she eat alot but dun think she can endure 3 days with her cup noodles anyway...

after that went straight for e 3 dives... somehow during some of the dives, i had difficulty going down n had some1 to pull me down with much difficulty... but at least i didnt have to follow those trying to get their licence, e 3 of us could explore by ourselves... picking @ sea urchins n i played with e fishes while destropying abit of the corals... oops... wasnt supposed to be lidat by my buoyance isnt that great... thanks to e help of the guys i managed to b safe... didnt land on any sea urchins or bitten by any fierce-looking fish...

somehow 3 dives is realli tiring... upon finishing e 3rd dive i realli couldnt pull myself back to e dive boat... had to b pulled while i rested on my back... my chest realli hurt but i didnt wanna give up any of e dives.. the weight belt pressed into my waist n every breath was a torture... everything was juz so tight inside.... fortunately i had help to bring me back...

e last dive was the most captivating to me... i was playing with e clownfish n it was alreadi within my two gloved-hands... n i went all e way down to 15m n not realised it... there's nothing much to see but e attempt to pick up another sea urchin failed...

after that it was packing up n lunch n off we go.... boarded the dive-boat once again to return to mersing after 3 days... realli tired fell asleep immediately upon lying down... my nose n cheeks hurts.. dun think i need blusher for 2 days but plenty of moisturiser...

it poured heavily after we got into e car @ mersing.. realli wet n flooded roads... had to go slow n having to endure a waiting-to-burst bladder isnt fun @ all... it was cold n i started to shiver... finally after more than 1 hour of torture again, got to e toilet @ the petrol station... ah... but it was still cold.... @ 1 point i was put behind the wheel bcoz mr claim-to-be-fit didnt wanna drive... kana horned immediately when i tried to turn out of the side of the road n i realised that e old car didnt need much acceleration to move.. so much for a smooth start coz the car jerked so much n e brake needs so much energy to put a stop to e car... omg... it was definitely a nerve-wrecking drive... den had mr claim-to-be-fit to parrallel park e car while we stop for our dinner... i was literally shaking i couldnt judge e spatial dist at all... after dinner had him to driv n bring us back to singapore...

its so funny having stopped @ e singapore customs to check our car n bags... having a male driver n 3 pretty ladies does it appear like he's going to con us off or something lidat?! crazy... super pai-say coz when e officers wanted to wanted to us to open the front portion of e car we didnt realli have a idea how to?! den still muz search our body, realli amusing lei......

realli tired now, juz finished unpacking n washing all my laundry n equipment... gotta go put on a face mask n dreamzzzzz..........

wasting my free time... realli bo liao

yes, been kinda free recently... updating my blog like crazy... but soon i gotta miss this dairy for 3 whole days!! but going underwater is definitely more fun than updating here! haha.. i enjoy alittle of both actually... nothing in excessive or it will create some silly illness.

well.. i juz pampered myself n did a mini pedicure by myself, suddenly didnt want any desgins on my toes juz in case they go missing with constant contact of the salty waters. anyway they r super short so i cant realli draw anything. waiting for them to grow longer n let my manicurist do them for me.. waiting to try french, i have only done them on 1 ocassion by myself as a treat, but as i wash my hands pretty often, the colours came off w/i 3 days! its wasnt a waste of time, coz its was so lovely. juz that i couldnt take a photo of both hands together by myself.

so much for pampering myself, gotta indulge my face with a extremely moisturising mask later, starting to get break-outs.. little white spots trying hard to peek out of their holes! DUN erupt!! let me have another peaceful week without any problems..

intending to try my luck @ lucky plaza tml b4 i go to work, pray that the shop is open n they have what i need.. urgh... gotta spend $$ again!! my well is drying up...

let me think if every1 who visits my site drops a $1 dollar coin into my account, den i shall b rich!! lolx. i would probably b able to pay for the trip in mayb 2 weeks... hahaha..

but for now let my skin indulge 1st...

my mouth is swollen hurting like hell.. its a disaster to speak n worse if i eat.. omg... better dead den having this sickening feeling whereby even if my mouth doesnt move it HURTS!! den today was supposed to go buy my diving gear den reach lucky plaza liaoz @ about 8 plus, CLOSE shop already!! omg, kana nag nag nag... also no choice no time to go, regret totally for not going on mon.. but haiz.. den no choice lo came home empty handed... sad sad... dunno if saturday morning will it be open when i go...

my ulcer :(

there's an extremely irritating hole in my mouth that hurts like crazy -- that's an ULCER!! omg, drooling over the food but cant put them into my mouth!! what a torture.... lookin @ all the delicious consumables right in front of me i can only let the saliva flow... n my arms r aching... cant lift them properly i wanna rest @ home n do nothing!!




counting down n still not sick of it...
6 more days to the sunny island!!

my foot...

i think there's something wrong with my foot. muz b my legs that r trying to scare me. as if trying to beg me not to wear high heels anymore.. i wish i could stop wearing them too. but i CANT. not bcoz i m short (i'm 1.68m) but i grew attached to them. though @ times i wobble in them n pretend that it was on purpose (DUN luff!) i cant live without them. its like a human being without food. u grow weak n not confident. e ugly veins r popping out like crazy. its gotta b worse when i become a mummy.. omg... ugliness that doesn't have any cure.


7 more days to the little sunny island!

awaiting for my baby to arrive, meanwhile i shall juz indulge in this :) 

meaty induldgence

e picture looks digustingly yellow but trust me, e real thing isnt lidat.. the steak is fleshy looking, done according to what i luv -- medium done!!
there's suppose to b flame on my steak! but obviously my hp camera isnt gd enough to capture that in e dim lighting. honestly the steak is ridicously delicious!! except for e CAULIFLOWER, freaking scary little thing sitting digustingly close to my meaty induldge. thankfully, after 2 minutes of staring @ me, it was taken away by a kind soul without further ado..

funny looking ice-cream

this was what i ate with ms lala last wed. its was e ending of a fattening meal, adding more calories n fats to my body. omg i this my bouancy gotta have some problem next week!

its pretty funny e idea of putting a super duper small scoop of vanilla ice-cream in a big bowl?! n its kinda dumb coz when u try to dig into e scoop it runs! den how do u eat it?
let's make a vote
1. put ya mouth directly above n lick?
2. ask for another spoon n attempt to use it like chopsticks to pick up e soft bits
3. be a meek n do it e conventional way


okie.. i m a meek i chose e 3rd method... i mean that's e only way out coz i work only upstairs!! cant make myself malu right?!

hear me rant

i have so much to rant about
have u got a listening ear?
there's no one there
to absorb my blah blah blah.
i wan u to stay
only by my side.

i hear u whipser
have u got things to say too?
i m right here
to remember what u need.
i wanna listen to them all
but u r no longer around.


something to look forward to...
10 days to e sunny island

so sinful!

e more i try to diet n control what i consume. e more i fail to do so..

i was attempting to make myself eat fish soup everyday for lunch n skip my dinner if possible so that i can b lean n slender b4 i take a dip in e water. BUT.....
e problem is e more i shun e oily, deep-fried, fatty consumables, e more i wanna EAT them ALL. omg.. i cannot express how much i hate myself for that.

just last afternoon, met ms lala for lunch, was debating whether i shld pick
(a) fish n chips
(b) baked rice

e thought of the oil in e fish is pretty digusting, but e thought of e cheese that is covering e rice arent a skinny idea too.. so wth, juz pass me the e fried fish!

den today... was supposed to go for lunch around 2 plus, but its like throng of ppl came in wanting our attention! den cant leave e shop till abt 4.30pm. stomach grumbling like crazy coz no food in my tummy for like 7hrs! den went across e street to eat teochew fish porridge. but to b more precise, its more like rice dipped in plenty of soup n mayb four miserly slices of white fish.. n i only polish off 5-6 mouthful of e rice n e rest of the fish n a small piece of veggie found in e soup.

den e most sinful thing happen. i ate a thick slab of steak with e extremely sinful cream mushroom sauce! but e thing is i almost freaked out seeing a piece of cauliflower among e veggies that e restaurant serve. fortunately it was removed fr my hot plate w/o further ado. its pretty much good food there, juz that they probably wanna consider redoing e ventilation portion. i left e place stinking quite abit, only to realise that a hungry cat followed me for a few blocks thinking that i had food with me. i almost thought e cat was going to bite into my flesh thinking that it was fish or some edibles. oh pls, do something so that i dun get followed anymore...


11 more days to e sunny island
