Dear Bloggie,

I am so upset..

Weeks back, on LNY's eve's eve.. (which is 5th Feb), I've got school on that day. On my way home, I exit PIE at Thomson Road. So I was travelling down AMK to go back home.

The stupid car infront of me "want go dont want go", I was already pretty frustrated.

So.. I was tailing him quite closely. And at a traffic light junction, the light's amber.. And I made a quick dash..

Mistake.

The flashes went off.. And I got captured.

So I recieved the notice, its a 200bucks fine with a 12points deduction.

I'll AVOID that stupid road at all cost now.

-_-"

Dear Bloggie,

It’s Monday morning!

Hope this will be a fantastic week for all. =)

I am going through a rather patchy part of my life now. Where I am suffering from the impact of my own mistake. I could have turn away from all the unhappiness, but yet I choose to not run away from it, and face all the punishments. I am not sure whether is it worth it or not, but this is my choice. Regardless it turns out good or bad, this is my choice.

Assignment due dates are coming up, but somehow I’ve got such a difficult topic that I really do not know where to start.

Anyway, time for some happy news!

A pretty close friend of mine in Secondary School is getting married [edited] soon, and I’m going to be her “jie mei”.. This is the first time a friend of mine has extended such an invitation to me. So anyway, I have put myself on a “strict” dieting regime, (the jalan kayu roti prata last night with Andrea, Qian and Karen doesn’t count..) I’ll skip breakfast and dinner for the next two weeks, so hopefully I wouldn’t look like a bloated “bak chang” on the 8th March..

And Andrea, Qian and Karen have “unofficially” declared every Sunday from now as our Mahjong day. This is so nice. Thou we labeled each other as besties, but in actual fact we meet only 5 times a year (Birthdays and Christmas).. But you know they’re never too far away from you when you need a shoulder or an ear. But isn’t it nicer if we could meet up on a regular basis to chat about our daily updates.. =)

Recently hooked on a new Korean Drama.. It has 34 episodes, a long-life drama for Korean standard. I watched till 2am last nite. I is tired de loh.

A lack of photos recently I know.. I’ll try make the next one a photo post.. I have yet to show-off my Valentine’s Day flowers from Xiang.. =)

Okie, back to work..

(I hate that irritating auntie who sits a panel away from me.. She has such an irritating voice, and she’s CONSTANTLY on the phone.. -_-“)

Dear Bloggie,

This is a tiring week.

Thou it has just begun.

Went Jere’s house on Sat.. I always loves Jere’s mum’s fried chicken wing.. But this year his sister got innovative and did grilled chicken wing instead.. Its good, but somehow I like the fried one more.. =p

Played blackjack there.. With the poly pple, and Jere’s uni frewns. My luck was good that night, I actually won close to 20bucks betting with just 1 dollar. This is the first time since the LNY I won money.. *smile*

But my luck didn’t stop there.. We proceed to Huili house, for more mahjong.

After 8hours of mahjong, I won a little more money..

Its not the money, but the company is great. =)

We joke and ate more food, and ended the 3 rounds of mahjong at 5am.By the time I reached home and all, I fall asleep at 6am. And I woke up at 10am, to go for more house visiting..

I think I’m really getting old; going without sleep for a night is too much for me.

I am so totally zonked out even till today.. -_-“

There are so much things I want to do, but so little time, so little money.

Things I want to complete soon:-

1. Shopping! More shoes, more clothes and more books!
2. Holiday.. I want to take aeroplane!
3. A new Laptop please.. =)
4. And oh, I need to finish my school assignment soon too. =(

~*~

Anyway, I’ve been thinking of stuff recently. It worries me at times, and set me wondering.. Jere asked me if there’s any regret. I told him Nope. But I really want to know what can I do to correct the way things are now.. I get really upset and unhappy, and I really do not know if I deserve it.

Has my Guardian Angel forgotten about me?
Will he be stopping by me soon?

GONG XI FA CAI!!

HUAT AH!!!

Today is the 7th day of the First Lunar Month.. Ren Ri, its everyone's birthday todae..

Anyway, I'm in the office now..
Long wordy post ahead as I've nothing better to do at the moment.

This is a super tiring week..

This year Lunar New Year (LNY) is not as happening as the past..

On LNY eve, I woke up at 5am to accompany my mum to Ubi Road to pick up brasied ducks and roast chickens for my maternal granny and aunts.. I reached the shop around 6.10am, and a long queue has already formed.. So I joined in the queue for the chicken, while my mum queue for the duck (2 different stores..) Its all the elderlies who are queing, I felt abit out of place, but yet excited.

A couple hours later, after depositing the staff at my granny's house.. I went home and bake cookies for my aunties.. In total, I made 6 bottles of chocolate chip cookies.. I improvise the cookies, and it not only looks good, but taste just as good.. So after the cookies are done, my mum sent me down to my paternal grandparents house..

Upon reaching, I realised my aunt has already whipped out plenty of food to pray to the ancestors.. So well, I ate a hearty meal, and went to sleep.. (I woke up at 5am kae..) Woke up at dinner time, and I continue to eat.. =x

And after much nua-ing around and mahjong, we left around 12plus in the morning and reached home around 1am.

First day of LNY, as usual.. Went to my maternal granny house.. This is the first LNY we spend at the new house.. (their old house at River Valley got en-blocked).. The new house is so small!! Not enough to house all of us.. So we didnt stay very long.. Then we made our way to River Valley, to pray to my grandpa, then to a temple in joo chiat.. All these while, I was tasked to sit in the car and wait. Coz I was wearing a new pair of heels which is about 3.5inch, so I could hardly walk..

Then went back to my paternal grandparents house.. Where I promptly fall asleep again.. =p

Woke up for food, then played abit of blackjack with my aunties, uncles and cousins.. Lost money. =(
Then xiang came over to pick me up around 1am, and we went Tampines for a show.. Watched (not CJ-7, not Ah-Long, not Jay Chow..) Sweedney Todd - spelling wrong right..

Second day of LNY, I went shopping. Only DFS was opened, so went down with my mum to get Clinique cleansing set and some make-up.. Then coz ALL shops was closed, we left after a couple of hours and she sent me down to xiang's house.. Nua abit more at his house, then went to Tamp for dinner with his family.. Then we caught another show - CJ-7.

Third day of LNY, after so many days so nua-ing I am really getting used to it. Sleep slack eat, sleep slack eat.. Drove down to Tamp around 3pm to meet Jere, Qian and Xiang for a movie - Ah Long.. After that went to XW house at Jurong.. Then we went to Jurong Point for more nua-ing and food, then I send them all home..

Forth day of LNY, I've got friends to come over to my house.. I baked some butter cookies in the morning, then when Jere came over we bake some chocolate cookies.. And slowly more pple started coming in.. All in all, everything was not bad.. They mahjong abit, blackjack abit and Jay Chou concert abit more.. Company was great as my besties came over too.. Xiang won money, I think I break-even..

I slept at 2am, and on the Fifth day of LNY, I started work.. -_-"
I practically zombie the whole day..

Office gave ang bao.. Its 80bucks each! My on my.. This is a generous company.. =p

Then wanted to have an early romantic valentine's day dinner with xiang (coz I've school on Tues and Thurs, and he has classes frm Tues to Thurs), but somehow things doesnt work out.. But the night ended with a stroll at Keppel Bay.. A very quiet and romantic place.. =)

And yesterday, Sixth day of LNY, I started school... -_-"

Today, it'll be home sweet home after work.. Need to do an online quiz..

But this weekend, it'll be more visiting!!

Going to Jere's house on Sat, and my Yi Po's house on Sunday..
And we have already lined up a mahjong session next Sunday.. -_-"

Overall, this has been a wonderful holiday. Except for a little hid-cup here and there..

Wishing everyone the best of luck in this coming new year, may the couples tian tian mi mi, may the singles tao hua duo duo, may the studying xue ye jin bu, may the working shen guan fa cai, may the mahjong-ers da san yuan and da si xi, may the black jack-ers ban luck and ngo leng.. HUAT AH!!

Dear Bloggie,

TGIF!!

Suddenly, I missed the days where the girls will all dressed up in a color theme to work..

Well, but Friday at this new place is not that bad either. Its a dress down day, so noone will do so much as batter their lashes at you even if you come to work in bermudas and slippers.. Its been ages since I last wore my jeans, so well, at least I could still fit into my old jeans comfortably.. I feel like those poly days, where I go to school in T-shirt, jeans and sneakers.. (oh yes, I'm wearing my old orange checked sneaker (I bought in HK in 2002) that I used to wear on a daily basis to school..)

I am adapting better at the new place.. No worries to those darlings at KM kae. I am surviving well here. =) They have 2hr lunch breaks on Fridays, so I only need to work 7 hours..

Anyway, CNY is coming!!

I am excited.. =)

I bought a new red top from Guess (coz I realised I do NOT have a red top after the weekly Friday color theme..), and also another pair of jeans.. And I am surprised how fast jeans have "evolved" over these years.. Back then, Levis only have 577, 599, 593... But now.. they have dozens and dozens of series, and I have totally NO idea whats the difference between them. So anyway, after much "dashing" around with Qian a couple of weekends back (coz shops are closing..), I settled on a pair of Levis girls "sumthing sumting sumting..." And it cost me $140 after 20% discount. -_-"

And ermm.. I still got a new dress, and ermm.. actually alot more new clothes and shoes.. hehe. All purchased in the name of CNY.

More baking news!!

Did I mentioned that I baked some cookies for Jere for his birthday.. And he said its nice! So did others who ate it..

*Jere you're not pacifying me de rite.. Its really nice right? - shot you a murderous look *

But anyway, I do enjoy baking.. And I think my cookie skills are still not that bad.. And so, my aunts requested me to bake cookies for them this CNY.. =) I'll bake it next wednesday, to ensure its freshness.. and btw, NOT all aunties bake kae.. Try grabbing a couple of aunties on the road and ask them if they bake.. They might be experts in steaming fish and can do up fantastic sweet & our pork, but I'm sure NOT ALL AUNTIES BAKE!

*This is not even consider stereotyping aunties when assumptions are made that baking are aunties activities.. This is simply gibbish tok with no factual grounds...*

And youngster nowadays, at least a couple I do know, actually spend good money (is it S$60 or S$80) to go learn how to bake CUPCAKES!! >> Jere you also know them hor!!

Okie, enough of this bakery talk..

And lastly, I have confirmed with my bf.. I am indeed cute.

Be it I bake or not.
