I love Fridays

Been cooking with Terence. For the past few days, we had cooked sweet and sour fish, dark sauce chicken, chilli prawns, tempura prawns, cilipadi chicken, fried rice, vegetables, potato… Everything was edible. We cooked for so many days that we finally got bored of cooking and decided that we should just buy lunch. No more cooking lunch at the moment. haha.

Ok, here’s a story of pay day. Pay day is on the last day of every month. Today is 29th February 2008, last day for the month of February. So, i thought i will be getting my pay today. I havent receive my December 2007 pay because i submitted my punch card late. My pay was suppose to be brought forward to this month and i expect to receive it today. In the afternoon, i happily went to the POSB and check but my pay was not in yet! Gosh, i was so sad. Very sad!

My mum didnt leave any allowance for me today, so, i was surviving on the remaining allowance i had for yesterday. Luckily, the remaining allowance i had was enough to feed myself during lunch. Poor thing. I messaged my supervisior and ask her about it but she didnt reply. I was complaining and complaining the whole day.

Then at around 11.30pm, before i went home, i thought: “Why not try my luck again? Check if my pay is in by now.” I checked and YES! It was in. I feel like a gundu. See, at times, we just need to be patient.

Its you and me now

Took a break from work.. Away, away from work.

Went to Arab Street for dinner today.

Dinner was at El-Skeikh. We sat at the terrace, an open air rooftop. The view was beautiful and dinner was yummy! I had chicken kebab sandwich with fries while Terence had fish and chips. The portion was big and dinner was definitely filling. Lalala :)

Told my mum that i am sick of working. Not that i hate working. I love to work and working has always been fun for me. It’s just that i am sick of it at the moment. Counted my punchcard and my pay has amounted to $500 plus for two weeks worth of work. Not bad. Its about time for me to a break and enjoy the rest of my holidays. I’ve got like a month more before 2nd year at school starts! So, i want to do shopping and spend all of my pay before school reopens. haha! :)

Butterflies in my stomach

Was online when Rachel told me that our semestral exam results are out by mail. Yeah, it was almost 3 in the morning. I was so scared to check my results until i had a sudden stomachache. Went to toilet to shit first before i came back to the computer to check the results.

My results sucked

and my GPA is pathetic. Those 6 to 8 credit unit modules killed my GPA. Lousy, lousy, lousy! The only ‘A’ i’ve got is for Real Estate Valuation, a 2 credit unit elective module. The 2 credit unit module carries a lower weightage. So, the ‘A’ wont do much help. Some ‘B’s, ‘C’s and even ‘D’s! I got a D- for accounts, which means i am lucky. If i was unlucky, i might have seen an ‘F’. My year-long modules sucked. Since those year-long modules carries higher credit units, my lousy grades for the year-long modules pulled my GPA down. Oh crap, but i’m glad that i dont need to retake any of those modules again. I am so relieved! No way am i going to stand another year of repeating economics or accounts. So, i’m thankful i cleared!

GPA is lousy but at least i am able to breathe easy and be happy because i can throw away last sememter’s lecture notes and tutorials! No need to keep and re-use for the nest semester.

Next, i’m waiting for the results of my option ranking. Oh, i think i shall check that later at noon. Lalalala.

Another train ride

Terence fetched me back from work today! Last day of work at OG Chinatown. Lalalala.

I’ve worked for almost a week now. Been working full shift or stand for more than 8 hours a day. I’m tired. Oh yes, dead tired!

When i reached home, was having a bad tummyache. Wanted to shit. While i was shitting, i was thinking of the funny moments i shared with my sister. When we were young, there were times when we had stomachache at the same time. We had to shit, and so, the both of us shared the same toilet bowl to shit! We will sit on the toilet bowl. I’ll take half of the toliet bowl while she will take the other half. We will shit while talking to eachother. And yes, we did share the stinky shit smell together too! haha. At times, we will argue whose shit is the smelliest. Well, of course, even if my shit was smellier then hers, i wouldnt admit! Now, i dont think the toilet bowl is big enough to accomodate our big butts. My butt needs the whole toilet bowl. So, no more sharing of toilet bowl!

Oh yeah, i was thinking of painting my nails red! haha.

Worth it

12 hours of work today.. I’m dead tired! Very tired. And tomorrow, i have about 11 hours of work! Oh, what a drag! :(

Work was at OG Chinatown. Ok, initially, i thought there will not be any halal food around for me! And when i saw McDonalds, i was like: “Eee, no fast food please! Fat, fat, fat!” Went to the hawker centre opposite OG and found a Malay Nasi Padang stall. Guess what? The food is so cheap and delicious too! I got to say: “That was the best nasi padang i had ever tasted.” For $2.30, it is definitely worth the money.

Anyway, i watched Ah Long Pte Ltd yesterday! I must say that the show didnt turn out well as i had expected. Didnt really like the show. I find some parts lame. In overall, it was ok. But not splendid.

Yes, i need some sleep now. Working tomorrow. :(

Something similar

Pad = Nina

Terence did something nice for me! He went to Mustafa centre and bought for me a packet of pad which has my name on it!

I was so excited when i received the packet! $1.40 for 10 pads of night wing. Yes, it is that cheap. Moreover, the pad is more comfortable than whisper or any other brand. REALLY! Not that i’m being such an idiot for promoting this. But, this brand of pad is really good. Soft and comfortable! :)

Go, go, go. Try it!

Convert Cash

I’m sick of working. I just want to rot during the holidays.

Terence is so lucky. He found some spoiled laptop under the block with a cracked LCD screen. Some letters on the keyboard was missing and the there was no battery or adapter too. It has an AMD processor and i can tell you that the laptop is in a terrible condition. Went to a shop and sold it for $40 after much bargaining. $40 for a laptop found under the block? Free cash!

Not only that, he found a PS1 under the block too. He sold it for $20. I dig my cupboard and found my spoiled PS1. Sold it for like $10? So total money earned from clearing junk: $70.

I’ve got lots of other junks to clear too. I dont mind selling one after another just to earn $10 a day. Enough for a meal! In that way, i dont need to work. Maybe i can collect soft drink cans and sell. haha. So, dont be surprise if you see me at coffeeshops collecting cans. You can say hi to me and give me your empty can.

If i am lucky, i may win the Toto $10 million hong bao draw. Oh yes, i am talking about $10 million. I think if i have $10 million in cash i will flood my rooms with the notes and swim in it. haha! :)

The picnic

S-U-N-D-A-Y

Terence and i slept like pigs.

Overslept and we was late for the picnic with Terence’s cousins at West Coast park.

The picnic

was great.

We had a tent pitched, food, drinks and we played frisbee.

Ok, i’m such a dumb at playing frisbee. Terence had to demonstrate to me so many times on how to throw a frisbee and i still cant get it right. The frisbee is suppose to twirl in the air after being thrown and the other person is suppose to catch it. The way i throw a frisbee is like throwing a glass plate in the sky. It goes up in the air then it comes crashing down! So, i eventually gave up at throwing frisbee and decided to take a walk to enjoy the breeze.

The weather was hot. So, we spent most of the time in the tent. Lying down and talking to eachother. Talked to Terence’s cousins and i must say that they are very nice and funny too! I wonder why i was so nervous about going out together in the first place! Perhaps i was shy lah. haha.

Left West Coast park at late evening. By then, Terence and i were very hungry. Took a bus to Orchard and had our late dinner at Cahaya.

After dinner, we just sat down outside Indochine talking with one another. We talked about too many things until i dont remember what we talked about. One topic after another. We went on and on and on until we get so thirsty after all those talking.

It had been a long day today. Tiring, but i had fun. The talk we had was great. I believe we had learn to understand eachother better.

Love you darling! :)

First valentine

Happy Valentines Day! :)

Dinner was at Secret Recipe Marina Square. Both of us were really hungry. Cant believe we were actually drooling at those empty plates that were being cleared by the waiter. When the food finally came, it was such a relief. If the food had taken a longer time to arrive, i might have to eat those packets of sweetener on the table. haha.

When the dessert came at the end of our meal, i couldnt stop laughing. The ice cream looked so big! I laughed as soon as it came. It looks like the ice cream can topple off the small cup any moment. haha. Its like 3 big balls sharing such a small space. :)

After dinner, my stomach felt like bursting. So, we sat and talk, talk, talk!

Valentines day or not, we know that every moment and day spent together has been meaningful. Its not about treating eachother special for only a day, but its also for all the days we live through seeing eachother. Thanks darling for everything. :)

Love you!

One to another

Been working for the pass few days. From one place to another. I’m tired. Well, about that new pair of shoes that made my toes hurt terribly, i’ve stopped wearing them. I wore my old working shoes and i’m smart enough to bring a sandal along for work. I’ll change to my sandals once work is over! In that way, my toes wont hurt! :)

Dear had been great! He had been watching me from work for almost a week now! :) Thanks my dear.

Caught the sneak preview of jumper yesterday! Gosh, it was a great movie! My eyes were glued to the screen throughout the whole time. I didnt have time to talk and was concentrating on the movie! haha!

Going to be off for the next couple of days. I took off! At least, i get to rest. Anyway, it’s Valentines day tomorrow! I dont know what are the plans for tomorrow but we’re going shopping together! :) lalala.

Got thread?

Second day of the holiday today. :) Met Syafiah at Little India to do threading together! lalalala.. Finally! :)

My first experience on threading:
Oh yes, i love my eyebrows now! Its pretty! haha. I’m going threading more often. And it cost for only $6. Well, it did hurt abit but it didnt last long. I closed my eyes throughout the whole time! My tears almost rolled out and when i opened my eyes, it was red and watery! It is definitely less hurtful than plucking your eyebrow with a tweezer! :)

After threading Syaf and i went to Mustafa centre. Initially, Terence was suppose to come to show us the way to Mustafa because we were not familiar with the road. He woke up late and was on the way to meet us when we girls finally found our way while wandering around. While we were crossing the road, a guy suddenly said to me”Hey there sexy” when i passed by. What a disgusting pick up line. He then tailed Syaf and me. He tried talking to me,w anting to get to know me. Once we stepped into Mustafa Centre, I took Syaf hand and we an around in a zig zag manner. We squeezed into the empty spaces we could find. Oh yes, we manage to escape from him. Well, not for long. He then appear form know where. I just told him that i’m not interested and he said “sorry” and walked away. Eeee.

Terence came minutes after! :) We went for a late lunch at Ananda bhavan. Gosh, the food there is terrific! Ok, the interesting thing is, they will give you a queue number for your food. It’s like we are a patient waiting for a doctor for consultation. When your food is ready, your queue number will appear with a *beep* sound and you can collect the food! :) haha.

Syaf went home after the lunch while Terence and i made our way to Dhoby Ghaut. We wanted to watch Ah Long Pte Ltd but the tickets were selling fast. We went to every single movie theatre and eventually gave up. We went to Arab Street instead and spent the rest of our night there.

Left Arab st for home at around 2 plus. We took a cab home together. I got off the cab first before the cab make its way to Terence’s place. When i got home, i was searching fcor my wallet. When i called Terence, my wallet was in the cab. I forget to take it home! See, how forgetful i can get! The cab driver was nice! He offered to send the wallet to my place. he even gave his cab license plate number and his handphone number to us! After sending off Terence, he came back all the way to my place to send my wallet back to me. He is so nice! I felt bad, so i packed some chocolate and gave him a few packets of Oreo biscuits. I really appreciate his kind gesture. He was very nice.

In overall, i had a great day today! :) Love it. lalala.

Early

Work up excessively early for work. Havent seen the sky so dark in the morning for a very long time. :)

Reached Carrefour Suntec and i started asking myself: “Why are they opened so early in the morning? Who on earth would go grocery shopping so early in the morning?”

Got hungry after working for 2 hours! My stomach was growling. Keep telling myself to wait for noon. When Cindy came at 11, i totally gave up the war with hunger and went for an early lunch!

My new shoe was hurting my toes terribly. I even put layers and layers of plaster to protect my toes from the shoe, but it didnt help. I even bought a new pair of socks to protect my toes, and again it didnt help. So, i took off my shoes while working. Walked around bare footed and it definitely felt better. I’m glad that today is the eve of Chinese New Year. So, most shops are opened half-day. If i had to work longer, i wonder how am i suppose to stand for longer hours in that shoe.

Thought of buying new shoes to substitute with the ones that i was wearing. Window shopped at the shoe department and i couldnt find anything which i like! Luckily, mumu came to fetch me back from work with a pair of beach slippers. It definitely felt odd wearing formal black with beach slippers, but who cares..

Dinner was at Sakura today. We couldnt find other places which could provide us with porper meals! and Fast food is definitely a big No No!

To my dear, Thanks for fetching me from work. You will always come early to spend the last hour of work with me. I appreciate it. and On some days, you wouldnt have your dinner. You would wait for me to end work first so that we can have dinner together – No matter how late i end. Thanks for those days! Its been a great motivation for me to have something to look forward to at the end of the day while i was working! :) Thanks sayang!

Not so perfect mannequin

Went to work today. Seriously, after a month of not working, i find that standing for long hours is a torture! :( I even wore new shoes for work and i end up with blisters. I cant walk properly. Wore plasters on my toes but it didnt help!

Work was at John Little Marina Square today. There were more than 12 wagons there! and all were messed up. I spent the whole day cleaning up the messy pile. There werent much customers too. Terence came at 7pm. We had dinner together. I went back to work for an hour after dinner and then end work at 9pm! :)

It was a tiring day – of course! Worse, i start work at 8am tomorrow morning! Argh! boredom..

Got to.

The day was great! I went shopping again! haha. My mum had been complaining that i am spending too much these few days! I keep buying this and that.. Gosh, i wish i had better luck in 4D. Win thousands and i dont have to work during the holidays. I’m just lazy. Just lazy!

Oh yes, i did buy 4D today. I hate it! I always get 3 digits correct and the last digit had to spoil it all! And i regretted so much for not buying this particular number. I had initially thought of buying. And i didnt! If i bought, i could have won $200!! AH, nevermind!

Met Terence today. We had dinner at Annapoorna! I like to eat thosai! Went to Mustafa Centre after dinner. I bought a new blusher and mascara for myself. Mumu bought his shaver. It was about time we had our toothbrush changed, so we bought toothbrushes too. Aiya, we were like doing household shopping. haha. Anyway, I love going Mustafa Centre to shop. SO many things are sold there! :)

Planning to go Bugis Street tomorrow. And i’m going to the cobbler too. Got to get the heels of my shoe fixed! I need to use it for working! Going to get a new white cardigan for myself too. And a several socks to protect my feet from standing long hours!

I’m like spending so much money on working clothes and stuffs. I just need to be motivated to get myself to work. So i better start being enthusiastic before my laziness and grumbling sets in again! haha!

What happened after

The last paper is the worst! I seriously think i am going to fail. I suck at accounting! Really! I started out well for the first few exams.. Then my marks keep dropping like a pile of shit dropping into the sewerage! From 70 plus to 60 plus then to 50 plus.. and eventually, i got a 40 plus for the last exam! Ok, this exam i better pass. At least a D-!

Sitting for the paper was stressful. God knows how i felt. I practised bank reconciliation like crazy and when i saw the question, i have no idea how to do! And yes, for those question which i left out, i just drew columns and heading hoping to get at least a pathetic half mark for some effort done. Shit!

So, after the exams i told myself: Forget it! Its over. SO, i went to the nearest dustbin and threw my notes. At least, that minus the load from my bag.

Met mumu for dinner after my paper. We were cheering each other and telling each other that exams are over! Yay, yay! That’s something positive to look into.

I’m so addicted to watching ghost whisperer. Especially during the exams, i never missed an episode of watching Ghost whispere at 1am, then Law and order: Special Victims Unit at 2am and then Ellen Degeneres followed by The tyra banks show. I’m like an addict of 1am-4am timeslot. Seriously! haha! :)

Anyway, happy holidays everyone!
