Acceptance Letter

YAY!! I finally got the acceptance letter from UCD! Was browsing thru my email when I woke up this morning, and saw that they have accepted me! And now, I have settle with the study loan. Dearest will accompany me to source for a better bank rate. =] I am actually thinking of POSB. But the rates they are offering is at least 5%. RHB bank are offering 4.68% for Kaplan students. Sigh. What a decision to make huh? So it’s not just about talking and no actions babe. lol. Really excited and nervous at the same time though. =| And I really think I need to complete my driving soon. It’s a waste of money to retake my FTT because I will have to go thru the evaluation, and whatever you can think of. Sigh.

Good luck to me.

AND AND AND!! 2 more days, and I am out of SINGAPORE! =]

Kerine’s birthday. Shoppppin!

I know it took me really long to update my blog. Since I am always at bf’s house during the weekends.

Met up with Peili for her birthday because I did not turn up the previous Saturday (I was too tired!). Vanessa, Valerie and Evelyn came along too. And it’s been a long time since I went out with them. And the last time I saw Vanessa was quite some time back. I think that was more than a year ago. When I was still with Nicholas, I think. Anyways, its always cool to catch up with the girls. And I hope we will meet up soon. =]

Celebrated Uncle Jeremy‘s birthday in the office last Wednesday! And because Arene, Lawrence and Daing were in a meeting, so they couldn’t join in the celebration. And HLH said I shouldn’t be going around asking people to fill up the birthday card because it’s not within my job scope. Duh. Nonetheless, we had fun!

Dye my hair during the last weekend. Was walking around chinatown trying to get a luggage for myself. And I saw this bubble dye (which was a new product shown on tv), so I decided to buy one and try. And the outcome is pretty ok.

From Drop Box

And I FINALLY found the luggage! Which we bought it at $69. Dear dear say he would pay half for me. Muacks!

From Drop Box

And shopping means.. the urge to buy more things… As we walk in OG, I saw this super soft blanket.. and was tempted to buy.. and with dear dear looking at me, I have to think twice and FINALLY dear dear gave me the green light to buy. And I bought 2! One for dear dear‘s home, and one for myself. Actually, both are for me. HAHA

From Drop Box

And of course, I bought some bras too. =P

From Drop Box

Can u imagine my weekend damage?? And now, I am waiting patiently for our Macau (H.K) trip this coming Thursday. And more pictures to come! Muahahahaha!

And and and!!! I have just changed my H.K currency. Really can’t wait!

Ettusais

As you guys know that my nose has been very dry for these past few years and this problem really bugs me. Sometimes I wondered how do I get rid of such problem because it’s really ugly to see your nose cracking under the make up. And now, I have my own solution! I was consulting one of the girls at Ettusais (Wisma) about the dry nose issue. And what she advise me was, put some toner on the cotton pad, and den leave it on the nose for approximately 15 minutes, after that complete it with the moisturiser. And it works! Amazing isn’t it?

Currently I am using the moisture one instead of the one you see in this picture because there is two version.

From Drop Box

After leaving the cotton pad with some toner on my nose as a nose mask for 15 minutes, it’s almost complete. In order to fight the dry-ness, I am using the moisturer. And it really moisturize your dry face! Pretty good that I wanna share with anyone who has the same problem as me. BUT, it’s different for everyone. So what’s suitable for me, doesn’t mean it suits you. But if you never try, you won’t know. =]

Swollen. Blueblack. What’s more?

It’s terrible during the weekends! And if you know what?

First, I discover a super BIG blue black on the left side my hip on a Saturday afternoon, and of course, it doesn’t feel a thing else, I would have discover about it sooner and not when I was having my shower. And it’s SO BIG until I was so shocked, and I am not being exaggerate ok? =P

From Drop Box

Putting the super BIG blue black aside, since there was an issue the night before.. So Alan came to Dearest‘s house to have a talk with him. And I have no choice but to stay put at home and continue watching my TW drama. I strongly believe that if there is an issue to be resolve, then they should resolve ASAP and till the issue becomes irreversible, then it would be too late. But it’s because Alan came around dinner time, so I became a little impatient because I have not taken my breakfast and lunch. And by the time Dearest came back from his “Man’s Talk”, it was already 7p.m and he was actually hurrying me. *Angry*

I know what’s making Alan unhappy. Imagine, you have a close friend. And that ‘close friend’ of yours doesn’t take initiative to call you, sms you or MSN you. And you are always making the first move to initiate meet ups, called to check if he/she is doing fine etc. I would be tired, and sometimes disappointed because it feels like my ‘close friend’ doesn’t care (or give a damn). Dearest is the kind of person whereby most of the time it’s his friends who looked/called him and not the other way round. Because he has been living in his comforty world for so long, he has forgotten about taking initiatives. I know he doesn’t mean to hurt his friends in any way, but if I am just his close friends, I would be disappointed as well. Imagine, my bf doesn’t call me and usually I am the one calling him; most of the time. Disappointment comes in, and everyone just speculate about his sudden disappearance ever since he’s got a gf (yea, that’s me). No, I did not stop him from meeting his friends every week, but rather, I have my own circle of friends whom I would like to hang out with during the weekends as well, so if he wants to meet up his friends, he may go ahead because I am not stopping him. And sometimes, late nights are draining the energy out of me. It’s really tiring, and frustrating to have the urge to lie on my bed and sleep BUT, I can’t do that because I am still outside. I am not complaining of course, because I am willing to compromise for Dearest‘s sake. So hopefully everything works out.

Anyways, we went to City Plaza to take a look at the things available there, and to our dismay, nothing much. It’s either the designs are too old or the shop are too packed with things that’s making our head spinning. Whatever it is, we might or might not take our goods from that place. After that, we head back home to take medicine because my headache came back! And it’s really so pain.

What scares me is, this is what I looked like after taking the Nurofen. So scary right? I kept telling Dearest that I can barely recognise myself. =[

From Drop Box

So we have spent the whole Sunday afternoon till night time watching the DVD we rented previously. =]

Great year!

This year is going to be an exciting year. Why did I say so? I am gonna remain mysterious for awhile, and while everything is on-going (at the planning stage), it’s not really convenient to reveal too much details. Watch out for good news! (no, I am not getting married! HAHAHA)

Shopping Spree?

I am so excited! I just made some online purchases (which are meant for CNY).

I bought the jacket (Collared Zip Jacket in Cream) on the left at Her Velvet Vase for $27! And by adding up the postage (registered mail, just in case the mail got lost since it’s gonna be a festive season again.). I wanted to buy another white color top (on the right, Oriental Lace Top in White) from the same blogshop but it was sold out before I could buy it. It’s really selling at an incredible speed. So Darling help me make a backorder for this. So hopefully I will get this top before CNY even though the website mention that the stock for the top will arrive approximately before CNY. =]

And then Darling told me another blogshop will release their new clothes too and so I went in to check out if there is anything for me to buy. After consulting Dearest and Darling, I decided to buy the dress (Victoria Beckham Inspired Shiftdress, White) on the left because I like it so much. And it’s just $29! Irresistable. I got this from Bonito Chico, I supposed this is how you spell the name. Pardon me if I have it wrongly. And yeah, I bought 2 pieces of clothes already! Feeling really happy. But what’s important is, I must be able to fit into these clothes that I bought. Dearest say, we can always alter it if it’s a little too big for me. =]

Anyways, just got a bad news that Valerie‘s father had just passed away. Sending my regards to her.

And I just went to a course preview with Jesslin and we decided that we are going to sign up for it if the time table for the 18 months matches. I think I might just go ahead if time allow me to do so. What do you think? Further more, Dearest say he could help me pay the 1st installment with his credit card first (of course I have to pay him back!) and then for the rest of the course fee, I can just take up a bank loan. We will have to work things out. And, appraisal is next Monday! =X Keeping my finger cross, and pray for a pay raise! Hahahaha!!

Horrible horrible horrible!!

I am so unhappy with Jetstar! Because they are going to delay my flight from Singapore to Macau, so the estimated time to arrive at Macau would be around 7p.m, and by the time we check in the hotel we booked, it would be almost 8pm! And the reasons that they gave us was, to accomodate a competitive rate, that’s why they have to change the timing. I am like WTFish! This is so not very good! I hate flights that delay. Which means I would have wasted the WHOLE day doing nothing! Horrible.

This is gonna be a very busy week for me! First, I am going to meet my Darling for the first time in 2010! Hahaha. And tomorrow, I m going to Kaplan for course Preview by UCD, Marketing, with Jesslin and Dearest. And Friday, I am just gonna slack at Dearest‘s house watching the DVD we bought the other day at Mustafa. Saturday will be celebrating Peili’s birthday. And last but not least, Sunday will be heading to Michelle’s house for Lucus’s first month! How exciting! In less than 22 days, I am leaving Singapore! Woohooooo!!

New Year Resolutions

I was reflecting myself for the past year and what have I done, and once again, I have accomplish nothing. Not that I am incompetent, but this is where laziness steps in. Ok, I know it’s just a crap full of excuses. I have yet list down my New Year Resolution for 2010. And this year, I only have 3 simple wish (no more hoping, yearning for LoVe) and they are:

1) To get my driving license
2) Get started on my degree program
3) GAIN WEIGHT!

I know the above 3 has been in my N.Y Resolution list for ages and it’s appearing every year! Ok, I have promised myself that I will get these things done pretty soon. I will get my butt into BBDC after I come back from Macau (yea, no choice.. because I am going to spend all my bonus for the trip. So it’s being used wisely), then I am going for the course preview talk with Jesslin this Thursday (7th Jan 10) at Kaplan. It’s gonna be an exciting year, or at least I thought it would be.

Let me recall what I have done for the super long weekend.

26th December 2009
(Amy & Alicia‘s birthday)

From Drop Box

Met up with the girls and the respective partners to celebrate Amy and Alicia’s birthday. Was supposed to meet the girls at Holland Village at 6p.m, I woke up late (LATE LATE LATE, I know~) and plus I need to iron my clothes, thus we were late. Meeting up with my girlfriends has been the very thing I am looking forward to! I love to chill and chat with them. I wondered what will we become in the next 10, 20, 30, 40 years later. We ordered the christmas set dinner, and it turns out…. (*secret*). Nonetheless, we had so much fun taking pictures!

After chilling out at the Coffee Bean, me and Dearest head back home. What a tiring night! Slept early because we are heading to church the very next day!

27th December 2009

Went to church with Dearest and co. Gavin and Erica joined us for the service. God’s work. Amen! After that, Dearest and me went to MOF for dinner because I do not want to have si chun food for dinner. And somehow, I regreted going because it’s really expensive! = And after that, we went Starbucks to chill and wait for Gavin and Erica to join us. Dearest and me went off around 10plus because it would be very late for Dearest to head home. And I must admit that I wasn’t very too happy with Dearest kept popping his head to see what I am chatting with my friend. If there is a need for him to know, he can always ask me. It’s really rude to keep reading people’s msges without their acknowledgement. Another thing that I don’t like is, he always hold and took my phone away because he wants to play without asking me. And when I say cannot, he will say I am ‘gei gao (petty)’. And when I say him, he would say “now you want to play “please” liao huh?”. I thought it’s supposed to be basic courtesy that you ASK before you TAKE because that something doesn’t belong to you and it’s really RUDE to take it from someone’s hand without the person’s agreement. You see, that’s the thing about certain someone. Taking things for granted. Which should never happen. There is no secret to be hidden away from him, but I do expect him to RESPECT my privacy space.

30th December 2009

Last working day of the year! Nothing special. Went to have dinner at Lavender and then we went to Mustafa for a walk. And this walk cost us almost $80. Haha, after that we walked back to Lavender to take a bus home. And that’s a long walk too.

31st December 2009
(The last day of 2009)

Clear my time off, so I don’t have to work for that day. Hooray! So I went over to Dearest‘s home for ‘Chalet”. Sometimes, I think memory is falling me. I have to think really hard to remember the events that had happen. Gosh! Alright, this time I remembered that I went to Kallang Leisure Park for a movie, Sherlock Holmes, with Dearest. Because that’s one of the movies I am looking for to. This is so exciting! Because there will be a Sherlock Holmes 2 soon (that’s my OWN conclusion). I love witty guys you know. =] After that, we went to have our dinner and head down to Esplanade to catch the fireworks at Marina Bay.

This reminds me of 2008 NYE – 2009. That very day, I head down with the ex-bf and friends to catch the beautiful fireworks to welcome the New Year and a few days later, we ended the relationship. No commitments. I tried to put up a strong front to show everyone that I do not care anymore, but I, ended up, crying for an hour at the playground next to my block. Cried till my lungs almost came out, but lucky for me, there is always someone out there to look for me. So much events happening. And sometimes, I wished that happy moment could just freeze in the year 2007 where we were once so happy and in love. But then again, time told me I HAVE TO MOVE ON. Which, slowly, I did. I thought the next guy that appears in my life, who’s always there to look out for me, would be the perfect guy in life. But as time passed, many people came into my life. Here comes Dearest. It was definitely filled with uncertainities. The moment when he told me that he likes me, I thought it was a joke. But it feels so real, because of his actions. But then again.. his actions are rather cold and hot at times. He gave me the bo chap attitude. I started to wonder. I don’t know if he’s the guy God has planned for me. Before he came into my life, I would think that the person will always be that ex-bf. Sometimes, the things that he once told me, demoralized me alot. I guess this is the growing up process.

After fireworks, we walked from Cityhall to Bugis to catch the last bus home. But alas, the last bus was crowded with people so we decided to take the train (since the train service is till 2a.m) home. We walked for almost an hour from Cityhall to Bugis, I guess this is the longest walk we had ever walked. So, Gavin met us for some coffee session along with Tyler. Just when I thought I could go home early to watch the DVDs that we bought at Mustafa. Sigh. So by the time, we reached home and shower, I have to head to bed. Wasted. I wondered when we can actually start on watching the movies.

1st January 2010
1st day of New Year

Woke up earlier so I could head back home since I have not gone home for 2 days. Haha. After crapping with my family, me and Dearest head to Shenton Way Partyworld for a singing session with Gavin & Co. Alan‘s car was down so they have to take a cab home. And after that we head back home and by then, I am already very tired.

2nd January 2010

We wanted to go Hougang Mall for a walk, but because I was so tried until I couldn’t wake up early and by the time we are done. It’s time to meet Gavin & co for dinner. Some times, does it comes to your mind that how much time in a year you have used to wait for people? I think I spent 1/3 of my time waiting for people. Knowing that Gavin will not be early, so we were late for about 15 minutes, who knows… he was 15 + 30 minutes later. Not much patience because a hungry man is an angry man. Hahaha. We head to Thomson Road for steamboat. And don’t ask me for pictures, because I was too engross in eating. Hahaha. After that, we head to some hotel to chill and lim kopi again. It’s the weekly routine. Somehow, I felt that I am unable to switch their frequency and laugh at their jokesAfter that, we head home and by the time we reached home, I am stoning already.

3rd January 2010

It’s time to have steamboat with my family again! Haha. I love to eat steamboat at home where everyone is so busy joking around and make fun of each other. Of course we must have the mahjong routine. What’s steamboat without mahjong? LOLs. Anyways, I LOSE. I will win back the next time round. They are just luckier than I am. Ah, it’s time to finish writing this entry because it seems like I have been typing for ages already, fingers are aching already! Hahaha. Stay tune folks! And, really can’t wait for Michelle’s Lucus’s 1st Month. How time FLIES. =]
