I knew this would happen sooner or later. Sleep deprivation has caused me to wake up an hour late for work. Had the full intention to cab to work but what coincidence that daddy, who had stepped out of the house to go work, came back to use the bathroom and as I was waiting for the lift, he came out and offered to send me to the MRT. I was secretly cursing and swearing cos the last thing I wanted to do was to take public transport and if I took a cab from the MRT, It would have been a longer journey and taken a much longer time but bcos I didn’t want to turn down his well intentions, I agreed. It all took a turn for the better when he decided I was very late and sent me to work instead. The ECP was bloody jammed but miraculously, I wasn’t that late for work. I decided not to push my luck so I skipped my morning ciggie and went up to the office, only to receive an email from the boss saying that he’ll be late for work. –phew- I think I’ve been pretty heng this morning, not needing to spend on cab fare and not getting caught for being late. I just hope the rest of the day goes well.
And now, the reason why I had a big problem waking up. Yesterday after work, went home, changed out of my office clothes, went to pick my bitches up and headed to PS. Dinner at LJS then we shopped, and I bought a faux python bag. Only thing is, I bought for the sake of buying and I won’t be surprised if I don’t use it at all. But I do like it lah. Had to stop shopping halfway to go collect our movie tickets which we booked. We were supposed to collect them half an hour before the movie starts but when we went there exactly half an hour before, they had oready released the damn tickets. I was so pissed but the girl at the counter said nobody had bought our tickets yet so everything was ok.
We had to wait 5 mins before they could issue the tickets but we didn’t wanna wait so we paid and continued shopping. Haha. Shopped til the movie was gonna start oready then we went to the cinema to collect our tickets.
I really enjoyed the show though. It’s a musical so if you don’t like dark movies, musicals and Johhny Boy (how could you not?!!), then don’t bother watching it. The songs were fairly catchy, the setting was great, the story was simple yet there was a twist to it and Johnny Depp was to-die-for. I wouldn’t mind letting him slit my throat anytime.
It was midnite by the time the show ended and I sent my bitches home, then I went home, washed my hair, then I went to pick them up again. Haha. We are all mad. I think we love each other too much. At least we are not out gallivanting with random guys right. Ok I take that back. And no, I am not gonna go into detail what that meant. It’s part of our skeleton collection for our closets. Haha.
We went to ECP, and there were these gross thingys all over the seats. My bitches are so silly. They thought it was dirt or leaves or something so they swept it away and then I realized that those damn things were moving. We have no idea what in the world they are but there were so many of them. They are tiny, cone shaped and they crawl around really slowly.
We decided to move 1 table away and it was much cleaner. Sat there and talk cock until I really BTH then we decided to call it a nite. The thing was, I was so tired but I couldn’t fall asleep until I only had 2 over hours left to sleep. I guess that’s why I couldn’t wake up this morning. Having less than 3 or 4 hours worth of sleep narrows my chances of hearing the alarm. Haha.
I dunno why but I’m very hyped about the 2008 Formula 1 SingTel Singapore Grand Prix on 28 Sep. They should have the track closer to the office so we can all have a free view of it. I can imagine all the booze that’s gonna flow and we have a nice big garden to watch the race from. Of course, that’s only wishful thinking on my part. But by then, the company may relocate so I’m keeping my fingers crossed that if we do, it’s somewhere with a brid’s eye view of the race. Speaking of which, I am so comfortable here that I can’t really imagine shifting somewhere else. *sigh*
Everyone is back in the office today, but not for long. I feel so sad lah. I’m gonna miss them so much. I still believe that all it took was 1 mad woman to ruin everything here. I hope she’s getting her retribution right now. Today is a day of goodbyes and everyone knows who I will be particularly missing.
On a lighter note, met Mandy for lunch today and as much as I’m not that big a fan of Korean food, the place she brought me to was pretty good and we were so damn full after that. I think it’s the same one at east coast near Holy Fam though. I thought I found the name very familiar.
Lack of sleep + heavy meal of rice + nice aircon + deafening silence + comfy chair = Zhou Gong beckons

OMG. Apparently there’s sex pictures of Edison Chen with a couple of other actresses like Gillian Chung, Bobo Chan and Cecilia Cheung doing its rounds on the net. Why must I be at work when I find out about this piece of news? I don’t think it’s very fresh news so I’m guessing there’s more than enuff pictures circulating by now. I’ve got a couple of links but I don’t think it’s very advisable to view them at work. Haha.
I’m gonna sound like a perv but Edison Chen is one of the few guys I really wanna see in their naked glory. Hahaha. I know who else is dying to see him in his bathing suit getting a BJ and oso going down on some girl. Lolx.
I am seldom so crude in my blog but my bitches know this is nothing compared to our usual conversations and I think Chixy will go find the pix, print them out in full colour and paste them on her wall, with her face superimposed in. Hahaha.
I wonder after I see the pictures, will I die and go to heaven.

I am so tired. Yes yes, I know, again. The best time for me to nap is after I get home from work after dinner BUT I would wanna catch the 7pm & 9pm ch8 show and somehow I will end up flipping channels in between the 2 time slots.
That’s what oways happens and that is exactly what happened yesterday. After the 9pm show, I went to shower and then it was time to pick up my bitches. We were craving for the wafer macha ice cream for the longest time ever so I finally went to buy it yesterday and by the time we went to ECP to devour it (haha), it was oready starting to melt. And bcos there were 6 pieces altogether, we had to choppers finish 2 each and not even halfway thru the 2nd piece, we all got sick of it and threw it away *sigh* Why do we oways end up torturing ourselves with food? I think I’m quite put off macha ice cream for the moment.
After that, we went to another part of ECP where the seats weren’t wet to slack. Looks like this time, it was time for someone else’s skeletons to make a guest appearance. Haha. Went to pick tubs after that and Chixy & I bought a tin of sweets each form the petrol kiosk. The tin is so cute but we don’t fancy the sweet so I think we’ll throw away the sweets and keep the tin. Lolx.
Met Emily after that and we all went to Fei Fei. Emily had a video that was kinda sick. I feel so sorry for the victim. What is the world coming to and how can guys be such bastards? *haix*
By the time I got home and slept, I think I had 3 hours before I had to wake up. Fanfuckingtastic. The feeling sucks but I still love my bitches’ company, which is why this is happening over and over again. Haha.

Yesterday was such a cock up that I doubt I can flee from work to go for some retail therapy with my bitches tomorrow as planned.
After yesterday’s last blog entry, the boss gave me the green light to leave BUT he oso gave me a whole stack of stuff to do. I guess I could have left it til today to do but I decided to finish it up first and by the time I finally left work, it was oready after 4pm. Great. Went to the bank, queued for eternity, and it was oready close to 5pm so I went to wait for the 5pm bus which only came like 15mins later. KNN. There’s hardly any difference from leaving work as usual lor.
Went home, cooked noodles which was my first and last meal of the day, then tried to sleep but the tv was too distracting and before I could fall asleep, tubs called and I had to go pick him up. Came home, fell asleep, went to his place, fell asleep, woke up at 3+am, slept on the journey home, continued sleeping for abit more, then it was time to wake up for work. Shit.
A nice long uninterrupted sleep would be fab but I guess compared to the previous week of barely any sleep, I am feeling a little better today. Taking the bus to and from work helps as well cos I get to sleep along the journey. But it’s a pricey bus ride so I shall try to take the damn sardine can we call the morning train to work as much as possible.
I have yet to get my bridesmaid’s dress. I’m too busy to shop and I haven’t seen anything I fancy so I guess it’s time to source for a good and cheap seamstress. Only thing is it’s so close to CNY so I’m afraid I can’t get one done in time.
As I’m typing, I can feel my lunch sinking in and making me sleepy all over again. I think it’s a good idea for hotels in the CDB to open up rooms to cater to people like me who needs a desperate power nap. Just charge low hourly rates on weekday lunch times and I’m sure it’ll be a hit. Haha.

Trying to be a hero and going without sufficient sleep is killing me. I’m starting to come down with a fever and I have the worst headache ever and I’m feeling so damn nauseous I think I shall take the rest of the day off. Let’s just hope the boss doesn’t get angry and that I am able to get a proper rest once I get home. It looks like it’s gonna rain but I do need to go to the bank and by the time I’m done there, it’s gonna be so damn late. I hate this shit.

I am seriously lacking sleep. Last week was oready rough enuff, with so many things happening and barely any sleep. Then when I thought everything would be back on track on Friday, I was so wrong.
I am not going to go into details what happened but let’s just say that it ended up with a change of plans and it’s been a long time since I went out til such a time. As much as I haven’t had much sleep during the week, I didn’t even feel tired at all. I just wanna say thanks for the company and getting my mind off stuff that really riled me.
Slept til afternoon, then got ready to meet Kailing at AMK macs. It breaks my heart to see her so busy and stressed bcos of me. After spending a few hours there, tubs came and we all went to Punggol Park to meet Dan & Sharon.
Did our usual round of drinks, then it was grocery shopping at the 24 hours Cold Storage and it was home to whip up potato salad. By the time that was done, I had to shower and wash my hair. By the time I got into bed after my hair had somewhat dried, I had about 2 hours to sleep. Fantastic.
Woke up at 8am, got ready, packed everything then went to pick Kailing up from her place. Then it was off to town for a secret affair. While she was at it, I went to exchange my stuff and as much as I liked the Gucci bag, I’m glad I didn’t get it cos apparently it spoils very fast and there’s no way to get it fixed. I’m not gonna pay for a Gucci bag only to see it peeling and turning black in our weather!
They had to wait for Paragon to bring in what I wanted so we had to wait til after 11am. I was supposed to bring food for Kailing as well so I went to Taka basement and grabbed some donuts. They didn’t look very appealing and I was afraid someone else may buy donuts as well so I just grabbed half a dozen donuts.
Went to pick Kailing, then went to Vivo and picked a present out for Rachel’s birthday. Went to buy a bag of ice after that and finally it was to Sentosa! The weather was so damn hot and we couldn’t find the others and I was so damn crabby. When we finally found them, we realized that we had actually walked past them earlier –faints-
Just when I thought we could settle down and enjoy our food, it started raining so everyone took shelter under a hut. What I dun understand is why people who are oready sweaty and dirty and are gonna bathe anyway wanna take shelter. If I were them, I’ll just continue playing in the rain.
The rain didn’t look like it was gonna stop so we went to another shelter. This shelter had more than enuff space so that was our final picnic site. Only thing was, there would be people playing Frisbees and balls and it kept hitting us so it was damn annoying. Some people are damn inconsiderate. Anyway, it didn’t take us too long to get down to attacking the food. Then the fun part came. Bcos nobody wanted to bring home bits of food and it was such a waste to throw everything away, we played games with food as the forfeit. I think the tuna was the ultimate killer. It was impossible to swallow I swear.
After all the fun and games, tubs & I had to leave. Went back to his place to do a quick shower, then we went to Bugis for Rachel’s birthday celebration. I barely ate cos of all the food we had at Sentosa so I couldn’t understand how tubs could whack so much food at Xian De Lai. We didn’t buy the girl a cake cos it was belated oready but we had a great time nonetheless. I was oso good seeing Ah Boy. It’s been such a long time since I last saw him. Come March, he is gonna get it bad from me & the sisters. Hur hur.
Went home after that and watched ‘The Longest Yard’ with the boy and tubs until Jane & Chix called. Met them to talk cock then I went home and concussed while tubs continued watching the show with the boy.
It’s been a long weekend with a lot of things happening, a lot of different emotions and very little sleep. But everything still turned out great.
Since my dear Rachel’s birthday was on the 26th, I wanna wish her a very happy belated birthday. OMG. You are 25 years old oready!! I hope you like the present Jes & I got you and I hope you had fun on Sunday! We shall try not to let you down in March. Haha.
Next, to all my lovelies, I had a blast on Sunday even though the beach ain’t exactly my kinda thing but with you guys, I guess it’s easy to forget about all the discomfort. Its oways madness with you guys around and I’m glad everyone put in the effort to make this work out. So credit to Mandy for organizing and even though Ting Ting couldn’t join us, I hope she gets better soon and next time, we shall aim for full attendance yah.
Once again, Kailing, 辛苦你了. I really owe you one.
Not forgetting my bitches Janey & Chixy for oways being a source of comfort and understanding me the best. I lub you girls!

I’m looking like a panda today and what a bummer that Kenny is back. It’s both a good and bad thing I guess. The only good thing is that if he leaves work after me today. I love being alone in the office but I hate locking up bcos the office is really freaky and I oways feel like there’s something lurking around. And no, I don’t feel that way bcos I watched a horror show yesterday.
Speaking of which, I was supposed to meet my bitches in town after work yesterday and I was planning to hang around in the office til they were reaching before I left the office but by the time it was after 6pm, I felt so uncomfortable being alone in the office that I quickly locked up and left.
Met Chixy first and we went to Gucci @ Paragon. Yes yes, temptation is kicking in and I feel like upgrading what I have to something else. We saw a bag that’s so nice but it screams ‘speedy!!’ when I look at it. And I don’t think I wanna carry a Gucci bag which is so typical of LV. But I’ve more or less decided on an alternative so that’ll be a done deal soon. Anyway, Chixy is gonna get that bag and there’s so little stock left so I have a bad feeling we’ll be seeing it everywhere on the streets. And true enuff not long after that, we saw a girl carrying it. Hahaha.
Anyway this season of Prada is disappointing. I was expecting a hell lot from them after the last season but to each its own so I shall not slam it. Last season was so gorgeous everybody was doing Prada replicas man. The most obvious would have been Charles & Keith. Haha.
After Jane came, we headed to Cineleisure and bought tickets for ‘The House’ then we went for dinner downstairs. We ate at some place selling mainly chicken. The food was alright nia but we were so damn full after that. Bumped into parrot and he was going to watch the same show as us with ‘a friend’. I guess our suspicion after all these years proved to be true despite him saying otherwise. I swear the guy he was with is his BF lor. See, my gaydar isn’t that rusty k.
Once again, we barely had time to shop but we couldn’t help doing a speedy gonzales at afew shops before heading to the cinema and why weren’t we surprised that the movie had oready started. Haha. And what a small world that mad dog was sitting right behind us.
The show is not bad for those who enjoy being shocked to death. The storyline is ok only but the shocks is the killer. I don’t like shows with unscary looking ghosts and computer effects. This is somewhat like that but the shocking factor is non stop throughout the entire show and the sound effects were power so I think it more than enuff took my mind off the storyline & they way the ghosts looked.
After the show, we were all too scared to go home so we went to my house. I washed my hair and then we went to Xin Wang at Siglap for drinks. The effect had wore off by then so we all went home. Slept at 3+…. I think I haven’t had a night’s worth of proper sleep this entire week.
Now thinking back about the show, it doesn’t freak me out anymore, which means it’s not that erm, potent. Haha. Some shows really scare me so much that I keep thinking about it even long after the show and my imagination really runs wild and I have problem taking the lift/ bathing/ washing my face etc.
But I’m glad I came with my bitches. Guys are a real bunch of wussies nowadays. Going dating with my bitches is perfect. They appreciate horror movies and nothing beats shopping with them. Guys can be a real wet blanket when it comes to such things.
I can’t wait to watch Sweeney Todd with them next week!!! We all LOVE Johnny Depp *sigh*

I am the lone ranger at work today and it feels great! Haha. I am finally getting the weekend vibes. This weekend is gonna be so busy and crazy. But all of you will only know why when I update my blog after it’s all over and done.
Unlike me, some people 吃硬不吃软. So after I had let loose my pent up frustration, somebody turned up to keep me company, plus a little something else..
I don’t like to resort to confrontation but sometimes if you are too nice, nothing gets done and people just take you for granted.
Let’s just hope there won’t be another time.
Nothing much to blog about today so… that’s all folks~

The last couple of days have been pretty rough but I’m grateful for those who have been by my side, getting me back on my feet and pushing me on.
However, I feel like there’s an emotional disconnect from someone. I believe it’s important to be there for someone thru both good and bad times and when you are not there for me during my down times, it makes me not wanna share my good times with you either. In fact, it makes me not wanna have anything to do with you at all cos fair-weathered friends are in abundance and it somehow makes you seem like one of them.
I left the house at 11+pm to go pick Chixy up last nite and then we headed to Kailing’s house. As if the journey wasn’t long enuff, we were so caught up talking that by the time we saw the exit, it was too late. After that was a long journey of trying to find our way back and a gazillion traffic faux pas on purpose just so we wouldn’t waste time (you should see all the speeding, driving against traffic, reversing, beating the red light etc), we finally reached Kailing’s house at 0030 hours. Phew!
Thanks Kailing for agreeing to help me with the huge favour. You have no idea how much it means to me. No pressure k. Sorry if I put you under any mental stress. Haha.
Anyway we were so busy chatting that the next time we checked the time, it was 2+am oready. Seh. So I dropped the girls home before going home to catch whatever little sleep I could get. It was a pretty fitful sleep cos I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to wake up and it didn’t help that I was having unpleasant dreams. The shitty part is that I totally can’t recall what it was about or who it involved.
And yes, I heard about Heath Ledger’s death. I am so sad bcos I really like him. He’s barely 30 and he’s such a yummy piece of meat. I hate tragic deaths. *sigh*

The boss is back today. I expected doomsday but it hasn’t happened YET. Yesterday was such a stressful day that even though I left work late, I couldn’t stop thinking about work. It was so bad I just had to get out so I met my bitches for dinner at Hanabi. Yes, it’s like the 4th time in less than a week that I’ve eaten there.
The manager is a little freaky though. He went smoking with us, and then kept coming over to chit chat and he asked us to go to his house in KL during CNY.. WTH.. I like friendly service but his extra mile is a little unnerving.
Anyway, we ate until we were so full and then we popped by the pet shop and my doggie is still there! After that we went next door and shared a banana split. So much for being full eh. We all went home after that, thinking we can meet again after I had gone home to wash my hair but once I got home and showered, I was too lazy to drive again and so was Chixy so we ended up staying at home.
I felt much better after meeting my bitches. I lub them so much. They are the few people who can actually get my mind off what’s bothering me. Now you know why as tired as I am everyday after meeting them til the wee hours of the morning, I am not complaining.
I can’t believe today is only Tuesday.
*sigh*
This morning’s meeting was a killer. I was fighting not to yawn during the entire 2 hours and I couldn’t sit still. It didn’t help that the lights were so bright and white that I was drifting into another world.
But it’s over. And now I’m so full and sleepy. Once again, I can’t wait for work to end.

*sigh* The weekend really flies.
I can’t believe I ate at Hanabi 3 days in a row. Hahaha. Yup. After last Thursday’s reunion dinner there with the family, I went on Friday for dinner again.
Saturday afternoon, lazed at home and then we went for dinner with Dan & Sharon at Hanabi. Haha. Chix & Kelvin decided to go and try it too but bcos they were so crowded, they didn’t manage to sit with us. The manager was so nice cos he recognized us so we got good service and free membership card. Lolx. After Dan & Sharon left, we sat with Chix & Kel and then we all went supermarket shopping and then we went to the pet shop opposite and I swear I nearly bought a dog. Tubs fell in love with it too. But we both felt it was a little too pricey. So after spending so damn long at the shop, we had to drag ourselves away.
Went to pick Chixy up from Sandilands later in the nite and we went to HK Café to chill. The mango snow ice we ordered to share was a killer. We couldn’t even finish it. We decided to leave when the guy caught us for smoking in a non-smoking area. Luckily he was nice enuff to just warn us. Anyway it was very late oready so we went off.
Finally used my voucher. Cut my hair and did treatment. I hate my haircut even though I think it’s not that noticeable to others. My fringe is too short to manage lah. I shall not go back there again even though its damn convenient.
Went to The Animal Resort and Farmart after that hoping to see more dogs but there were none so it was off to Parkway and it was tub’s turn to cut his hair. By the time he was done, there wasn’t much time left to walk around so we headed to granny’s house for dinner. After dinner, we went to Parkway with Mel, Clare & Ethan to walk and then when we went to Sam Yick, he was so excited to see the puppies he was practically squealing. Haha.
That nite, Chixy called to say Eugene’s gf’s dog was at Kel’s house. I was so tempted to go but decided not to in the end cos it was very late oready. Haix.
Tubs says we’ll get a dog if we find one that’s less than $2000. So for now, it’s just waiting patiently. I’m sure they’ll cost less once there’s an increase in supply. I’m just keeping my fingers crossed cos after the one we saw on Saturday, all the other dogs have a tough act to follow.

It’s finally Friday! I am so looking forward to this weekend BUT it’s unsettling that everything at work is still a mess AND I have about 1 more week til my paper and I haven’t even started reading the notes yet.
Anyway, I had my reunion dinner yesterday. Yup. Haha. It’s like 2 - 3 weeks before CNY lah. That’s cos uncle Tuck Yew won’t be in the country so yesterday was the best choice. We ate at Hanabi @ Katong Mall. It was Japanese Ala-carte buffet @ $30++ per person and I thought the food was pretty good. I think there was a promo that for every 4 people, you have a choice of complimentary lobster or king crab. Because there were 12 of us, everyone got to try it both. Now that Hanabi is so close to home, I think it’s gonna give Waraku a run for its money. Haha.
After dinner, went home, got changed, then took the car to pick up my bitches from Parkway. Jane bought a bag full of sanitary napkins. I think she must have burst her womb and Chixy bought kim chee which stank up my whole car. It smelt like a dirty public toilet man. LOLx.
We went to pick tubs up then we headed to Punggol Park. We ordered a drink each and there were steak fries, skinful chicken, deep fried calamari and chicken nuggets. I dunno why they ordered so much cos I could barely eat anything after the killer dinner I had. But we still managed to finish most of it. Haha. Never underestimate the power of our appetite.
Dropped my bitches off, then it was home to wash my hair and I was left with 4 hours to sleep *sigh*
I can smell the weekend but I can’t touch it yet. 3 more hours. Why can’t the time pass faster?

The boss is away on a business trip again. I can breathe easier, but not much more. I just need to take a break and blog before the daily madness starts again.
Went Ikea with Kailing and Jane last nite. I think we went too late cos after walking the second level and eating our meatballs, they announced that they were closing soon but we still went downstairs to walk around. Haha.
After that, we went opposite to Giant and spent such a long time there lor. Haha. We took a trolley and started picking things from shelves. I took konnyaku jelly, melon vitasoy, cheese cake, seaweed, a pillow and the more we walked, the more I came to my senses that I was going to buy all these for the heck of it. So I ended up with only seaweed and vitasoy.
I am so much more disciplined compared to that 2 girls. Kailing nearly bought a microwave lor!! That aside, both of them were practically stocking up for war. But nevertheless, I had so much fun with them.
Last nite I was really cheesed off. It may be a small thing to you but my patience has a limit. When something happens so many times that we had to have a serious talk about it and you said it won’t happen again, please make sure you adhere to it. I find that you don’t take some of the things I say seriously enough. That’s your bad cos when I get angry, it is not my fault. I hope you can be more dependable in the future. However true your excuses may be, I don’t think it is good enough. I see you as an adult so I expect some sort of basic responsibility. I don’t think we need to wait til something bad happens before you regret your indolent attitude because that will be too late. If you think an apology is good enough, you are wrong cos actions speak louder than words.
Anyway, due to our little outing yesterday, I didn’t manage to watch the deal or no deal hunks edition. All I know is that they look damn yummy in the trailer. –slurps-
I need a manicure very badly. I think next week shall try to go get my nails done at Parkway. That’s if my nails can even hold up til then. Haha.

Even though time is passing very fast at work each day, it’s so draining that it feels like I’ve been working for 1 whole week oready even though today is only mid-week. It makes me feel like going on a good holiday but I know I can’t leave the office for more than a day. So the best way is to let everything smoothen out for another month or so, then I will take half days as and when there’s nothing much to do at work. That sucks big time. I am being over worked and under paid and I can’t even enjoy my entitlements in peace.
Was supposed to go pick my bitches on Monday nite but just as I was getting out of the house, the asshole took the car. Dammit. I wonder where he went. Probably to sell backside or something. So ended up Chixy came to pick us up and we went to ECP. They ate subway and the service sucks as much as before. I love subway but that outlet just turns me off.
It was 11+pm when we got there and everything was packed up oready even though the place closes at 1am. And when I say everything, I mean everything. All the tables and chairs were tied up, the counter was closed so if you dunno what veg you want to go with your sandwich, too bad cos there’s nothing for you to choose from. You have to tell them then they will go get it. All the cookies were kept in a Tupperware deep in the counter and when we asked what cookies they had, the fucker replied ‘we have all kinds of cookies’. Even when prompted to show what cookies they had in the Tupperware, he would rather say all the names of the cookies than to show us what they have even though the Tupperware was right behind him. He said ‘you want what then I take for you’. Mother Fucker.
Anyway, Scruffy’s was closed for the nite so we sat there as everywhere else was wet from the rain. It felt so good to be out. Away from the office and away from home. I dunno why my bitches like to probe for skeletons in my closet. Haha. I did my spring cleaning oready lah. So no more juicy stories for you all, I think.
Yesterday after work, went home to get the car and then it was off to pick tubs & Marcus up to go for dinner. It was yummy BKT but bcos Mel bought such a huge lunch for me earlier in the day, I could barely eat anything for dinner. Haha. Went to pick Chixy up from Sandilands, then dropped Marcus home, then to Balestier to pick Mel up and it was off to Orchard Party World for KTV. It was 9+pm when we got there and we left close to 1am. I think that explains why I’m so tired today. By the time I got home and showered and let my hair dry, I was oready on the way to dreamland.
G announced today that he has tendered his resignation. I am so sad! Out of everyone here, he’s my fave. But… *sigh*
I’m gonna end my blog here for today. Got no mood to blog and I’ve got a lot of work to do. Bye!

It is such a busy morning at work I think I’m going to die. I didn’t help that I’ve got a minor sore eye but it’s getting better so that’s ok. Everything is a mess over here at work. This is definitely not the way to go. I shall blog to take my mind off things a little before I get back to saving myself from drowning.
This weekend was ok I suppose. Went to school after work and it was one big cock up, which left me very frustrated. I’m not gonna go into details cos it’s just gonna make me even more pek chek. Anyway I ended up not attending class and having a good dinner at Waraku.
Met Dan & the boys at Punggol Park at nite and not only did they order their usual beer, they opened a bottle of Chivas. OMG. But 1 bottle is nothing to them. By the end of the nite, it didn’t even have any effect on them. Left at 3+am.
Saturday evening, went to Perling for dinner. It seems to be such a long time since I last went across the causeway to eat. The roads are so different now but I still like the food there. We went to buy DVDs and went to Giant to walk around abit before heading back to Singapore.
Went to Kel’s house to look for Chixy and then we went to HK Café at Heartland Mall. Stayed there til 4+am but I wasn’t sleepy yet so we watched American Pie – Beta House. That’s the right show to watch at that kinda time. If not I sure sleep. By the time we slept, the sun was oready coming out. Sianz.
I had the intention to go for class on Sunday morning but after much thought, I decided to give it a miss. *sigh* Why did I even decide to study?! It’s so not my things and I know it. Anyway, slept til late afternoon, watched Enchanted DVD (it was ok only lah) nua abit more, then it was dinner at Siglap Pizza Hut.
Tried to watch Hairspray at nite but I was too tired to appreciate it. Maybe I should have watched Jackass2.5 which I bought for the boy instead.
That’s about it for my weekend. It’s gonna be lunch time soon. Finally a much needed break from work. I hate the time difference between us and America. ARGH!! It just makes things difficult for everybody.

Right now I’m struggling with the very thing I learnt in school. I guess it’s not my fault. I’m never one who paid attention in school and I am long out of touch with the sector. Thank god I know I can call Mandy dear to help me cos she’s full of experience. I can’t even remember if we learnt Amadeus or Abacus back in school. That’s how little an impression it left on me. Hahaha. Now you know why I’m not in the travel/ airline industry. Nvm, so that my cert doesn’t go to waste, I shall aim for the IR. Guess I wouldn’t mind MICE either so for all you shallow people out there, tourism doesn’t only = 导游.
I am so not cut out to be a 导游. I don’t like to entertain strangers, I don’t like traveling without my friends, I don’t like sleeping in a foreign place on my own, I do not like to baby a bunch of grown ups who makes life difficult for others and most of all, I have a problem curbing my temper so whichever company that hires me is bound to get a lot of complaints and eventually, I’ll be asked to leave. Haha.
Even though there’s many perks to the job as well, it’s not enough to supersede the cons. That’s just me I know. Not everyone is as difficult as me. Which is why I feel very strongly against the kind of money Mandy dear is bringing home. I think she deserves a lot more for all the things she has to go thru! I only have issues with how little this field is paying I guess. And I think one big reason why tour leading turns me off is because some Singaporeans can really be a bunch of selfish mutha-fuckers who think they own the world. Mandy is definitely more cut out for this job than me I swear. Patience of a saint. Mandy, happy or not? I pronounce you Saint Mandy today. Haha.
Anyway, its time to update what I did yesterday. Left work slightly early –sniggers- to head home to rest for awhile before heading down to Kathib to meet my darlings Mandy & Kailing. It was only yesterday on that long train ride that I realized other than taking the MRT to work on most mornings, I almost never take the MRT at any other time. And it was kinda torturous to me.
To start with, the waiting time was hell long; Morning trains arrive one after another. And along the journey, waves of different smells hit me. Non that’s really pleasant; All the office people smell really nice in the mornings. Then there’s the usual weird people on the trains which you almost never see in the mornings. I think I’m really jialat. And the worst part was, after going thru it all, everyone showed surprise that I took MRT to Kathib instead of cabbing there. Thanks for doubting me hor.
But once I reached Kathib, I’ve made up my mind that I had enough of public transport for the day so after going to New York Pizza to tapao food, I insisted we cab to Bottle Tree Park. When we got there, I felt so dumb cos it was really nearby. Because I’m so sua ku, I confused it with Bottle Tree Village which I heard was huge and deep in etc. Not only was it nearby, it was just beside the main road –faints- So much for my illusions of an exclusive and beautiful park. But no, I still don’t regret cabbing over. Haha.
And since we are on the topic of me being sua ku, my darling gave me a $20 plastic bill which I’ve never seen before. Haha.
Once we found a place to sit, all the food came out. Haha. And so did the drinks and ciggies. Then we just sat there and talked and talked until the guy told us they were closing and we had to leave, which was just as well cos I had spotted a trail of ants on our table and it made me damn gao wei.
Here's our food. Doesn't look too impressive but i thought it was pretty good. We forgot to include the you tiao in the pic!
I had a great time with my darlings even though I didn’t see a single bottle tree. Haha. The irony of it all. I saw palm trees though. I guess they do look somewhat like bottle trees.
We shall catch up again soon ok! I promise to try and work something out for our Sentosa outing. And we decided that instead of everything just potlucking randomly, its best that we do a list for everyone to choose from in case everyone comes with the same things. What a joke it’ll be if everyone came with drinks and chips. The ultimate choice of the lazies. Haha. I’m kidding. I won’t fault anyone who brings chips as being lazy lah!
I think Mandy will post the list on her blog so go check it out!
Once again, I am super sleepy today. I don’t even wanna say why. Let’s just say someone decided to wash + polish the car until the wee hours of the morning. After that then I had the chance to shower and wash my hair, after which we fell asleep pronto. And when we woke up while later, it was 2 hours to go before I had to get ready for work. Drove back to my place and tried to sleep as much as I can before I really had to get up, BUT tubs was snoring so loudly I swear the whole house could hear him, which also meant I couldn’t sleep at all. Best. Heng today is Friday. I need my sleep BUT I dun wanna sleep another weekend away also. Haha.

My mum’s a champ. The colour of something ran in the wash and my beige towel became a shade of baby blue and so did my new white Marks & Sparks panties. Looks like I got reason to go underwear shopping again. I’m kidding. I’ve got too many panties oready. I love the ones I bought at La Senza even though I dunno when I’m gonna wear them. They’re too kinky for work. It is silk and it has a mini skirt thingy with garters and it’s so damn cheap.
The whole La Senza is on a mad sale and mine after half price, is only less than $20 lah. OMG.
Now that it’s Thursday, I’m feeling the heat to quickly get my work done! Panic is starting to set in and I can only blame myself.
I slept before 2am so that’s relatively early by my standards and I also slept the entire way to work so hopefully I have enough energy to do as much work as possible and also to meet my darlings tonite. We haven’t decided where to go yet. After CAN Café closed down, we feel so lost. Haha. I guess where we go is gonna depend a lot on the weather too. Oh well. Singapore is practically raining all year round and no indoor smoking really sucks for smokers. Dammit. It also doesn’t help that the 3 of us live in 3 different ends of Singapore. As small as Singapore may be, it does make a difference.
Anyway, I’m pissed with my school. After paying for registration, I heard no news from them even though I’m supposed to start class this month. The girl in charge was on leave when I tried calling last week and the other girl said she’ll get the in-charge to call me back, which never happened.
I called just now and not only was the girl back from leave, my class starts tomorrow. Wonderful. I’m so screwed. Not only is the class tomorrow, its on Saturday and Sunday, 0900 – 1800. That’s like fucking work hours on my previous weekends. KNN.
Even better news is that the exam is on 27 Jan. That’s the day for my darlings at Sentosa!! KNNCCB. Darlings, I shall go find out the exam time and we shall work something out k. I don’t think you all will miss me for that few hours or so right. Haha. I think you all will miss my potato salad more. The most I’ll pass you guys the food and you all can go ahead without me first. No way am I going to bring the food to the exam and let it rot in class.
Anyhoos, here’s something to keep everyone entertained. Has been going round emails for the longest time but since I got reminded of it in 8 Days, here it is. China Menus translated into English.
Kung Pao Chicken = Government Abuse Chicken.
Hahahahaha....
干炒牛河 = Fuck to fry the cow river:
- 干 = Fuck, 牛河 = cow river
上汤云吞 = Top soup cloud swallows:
- 上 = top, 云吞 = cloud swallows
Since 'The pig picks the noodle soup', I'm guessing it must be good....
周打鱼汤 = The week beats the fish soup:
- 周 = Week, 打 = beats
吞拿鱼薯仔沙律 = Swallow to take the fish sand:
- 吞拿鱼 = swallow to take, 沙律 = sand
And since 'The chicken hates the soup of', then i think it's better giving it a miss....
牛油多士 = Butter many privates
To pick the row pig that picks the rice, or the bureau pig that picks the rice?....
猪扒哥顿布 = The pig picks the elder brother a cloth:
- 扒 as in 扒手 = pick pocket so 扒 is pick
I think I'll settle for the curry chicken that picks the rice.
OMG. I can't decide which one is my favourite dish.
Hahahahahhahahahahahaha
This is making me damn lame.

After all the cock up yesterday with the power failure and all, I finally got to leave work at 3+pm.. it was raining and I had a problem getting a cab and once I got it, it was a damn London cab. Thanks lor. But I was desperate so I took it either ways.
By the time I got to Parkway, my bitches had oready omost had their fill. So it was my turn. We took a foto of our masterpiece but this is nowhere near our usual standards.
We walked around abit, then we decided to go for a movie. So we headed to my place to get the car and we were off to PS! Even though we never forgot what time our show was supposed to start, we still had problem tearing ourselves away from shopping to head to the cinema.
Our last shopping destination was La Senza and if not for the time, we would have stayed there for dunno how long. We quickly paid up and rushed to buy hotdogs and drinks before watching My Blueberry Nights.
Before the show could even start, Jane’s hotdog decided to give her a lap dance. Haha. What a mess! Next time dun laugh when I take so many serviettes cos you’ll never know when you’ll need them eh.
I pretty much enjoyed the show. Wasn’t crazy about it like Jane, but neither did I fall asleep like Chixy. *sigh* Sometimes it’s weird to sit between my bitches. Haha. I think Chixy was more interested in the couple making out in front of us.
By the time the show ended, it was a little before midnite and while taking a smoke in the car park, it started pouring like mad. It was so heavy I swear I could barely see anything but I sent everyone home safe and that’s all that matters.
It’s a lifestyle I could get used to. Eat, shop, watch movies, drive around, hang out with friends the entire day. Hur hur.

I was blogging halfway when the entire building had a power failure. Even blogger wasn’t able to save my post in time. Sad.
I was just saying that my bitches are evil and they had convinced me to leave this cold and quiet place and join them for Sakae tea-time buffet. It didn’t seem like there would be a problem cos everything had pretty much stagnated for the day until the power just had to go out. KNN. How am I going to leave?!
I wanna meet my bitches to pig out and to talk cock. And when I say talk cock, I mean it literally. It’s not my fault that that’s all they talk about. And then Jane the maestro in burping can scare off customers yet again. Haha.
*sigh* How now, brown cow?

It’s been a mad day for me. Busy is good. Mad busy is just, well, crazy.
I think it shows how much work is taking a toll on me when I slept my precious Friday and Saturday nites away. Unbelievable but true.
Friday after work, was off to Dunman for my fave tien ji zhou. I can’t really remember what happened after that but while “thinking” where to go for the night, I fell asleep on and off until 8am the next morning. KNN. So Macs breakfast it was before heading home and I finally got down to watching the ‘Red Line’ DVD.
Lunched at Genki sushi on Saturday afternoon before heading to Pasir Ris to see dogs. I’m pretty intent on getting a toy poodle but a Bernese Mountain Dog totally blew us away.. just when we were so psyched, someone bought it. *sigh* I guess its just not meant to be..
Isn’t it such a darling?!
One of the guys, I think he’s the boss, decided to show us his hidden gem. A Mastiff!!! It’s not on display to the public so either you gotta request to see it, or you gotta catch the boss in a good mood. Ours was the latter and we didn’t regret it one bit. It’s the only one in Singapore and the one he had was 4 months old but it was so freaking huge. I know all mastiffs are huge but this is beyond anything I’ve seen. If a 4 month old dog comes to higher than my waist level when it’s on all fours, and my hand looks tiny next to its mouth, I don’t dare imagine how gigantic it’ll be when it’s fully grown. It’ll be like rearing your very own lion at home. Thank goodness I’m not that taken in by it even though it was way impressive. So if anyone is interested, be prepared to have 24 hours aircon running for this dog and the dog costs $25000. Yep. Hur hur. Here’s a pic I found off the internet. The one I saw was long furred but I couldn’t find a picture of it online but here’s just a rough idea of a grown Mastiff for you guys.
After that we did come across a toy poodle that tugged at our heart strings but it cost more than what a poodle should cost and the fur seemed a little sparse so too bad.
Went car viewing after that and then we went to Anchorpoint where I bought so many clothes. I never knew there were so many factory outlet stores there. They weren’t necessarily clothes with defects. Some where just from past seasons and the prices were crazy so I think I kinda went overboard with the shopping.
It was another round of “thinking” where to go for the nite and what do you know, it was morning the next time I opened my eyes. Haha.
Slacked at home on Sunday til it was time to go over to Granny’s for dinner. Went to pick Chixy up and after a lot of driving around to look for a place to have a drink, we ended up at where we first set off from – outside Sandilands.

Mel got me hooked on Kokology. It’s somewhat crap to me but pretty addictive nonetheless. I think it’s a good thing to keep me and my girls occupied for awhile. Its good laughs I have to say. Now that Mandy dear is back, its down to serious planning on when to meet and catch up with my darlings for a round of Kokology!
My body is still at work but my soul has left the CDB oready. Haha.

My little red riding hood finally went for her second servicing. I know. It’s like so damn overdue. 辛苦她了. Haha. She is too fragile and too tame for me. I am afraid I will kill her one day unintentionally. I like cars how I like my men. Sturdy, reliable and a good ride. Hahahaha.
Anyway, went to Parkway after work yesterday to meet the folks for dinner but since I was early, I went to walk around first and I bought 3 for $30 panties at Marks & Spencer. I have too many panties but I just can’t stop buying new ones cos they are all so pretty. I love Marks & Spencer sale!
Met Chixy at Mas-Ayu and she helped me tapao my lemon-ribena from there and then we went Macs drive thru and bought the prosperity burger meal. Curly fries are back! Talk cock and slack at ECP and then dropped her off at Gene’s house and the poodle was there! After the other time when I saw the poodle at the pet farm, I’ve been in love with poodles. The poodle was so nice to touch and it was so well-behaved! *sigh* I want my own toy poodle please~
Anyhoos, I am seriously lacking sleep. I don’t even know what to call last nite. I think I shall describe it as having 2 naps before coming to work. Haha. Thank god it’s Friday!!

Thank god it’s Thursday. Cos I’m really very tired. The boss will be away for 2 weeks from tomorrow onwards so I’ll have 2 weeks to catch up on everything at my own pace. It’s better that way. The lesser the pressure, the better I function.
I was watching this video clip I got in my email the other day and it made me sick to my stomach. I thought it was a very old clip but I found it on PETA’s website. For those who are interested, go to
http://www.peta.org/ and find the video “A Shocking Look Inside Chinese Fur Farms”. Don’t ask me to post it on my blog cos I’ll slap you. I forced myself to watch as much of it as possible and when it reach the part when the animal was totally stripped of it’s fur and left to die, I nearly threw up and I couldn’t bring myself to watch anymore of it. I’ve watched some pretty gory stuff like dismembered bodies and live beheadings but this one pretty much takes the cake. I know it’s weird how come animals have a bigger impact on me than humans. But just go view it for yourself.

First day of work for 2008. The day I am left to drown and to fend for myself. Others would reckon I should be celebrating my new promotion. I am actually dreading it. Too much uncertainty amid all this chaos. And no, my promotion doesn’t come hand in hand with a fat pay cheque. But I guess that also makes things easier should I decide one day to jump ship. Enuff of work. Simply bcos I dunno where it’s taking me.
NYE was a fairly quiet affair this year. Gone are the days where I love crowds. No pushing and shoving on the streets, no sticky and sweaty bodies in the clubs. I went to pick Chixy up from Kel’s house then we went Heartland Mall for some bites and drinks at HK Café. Tubs and Marcus came to look for us there before dropping Chixy off.
We decided to go Cosy Bay hoping to catch the fireworks but when the clock stuck midnite, all we had was the sound of firworks. Haha. We weren’t that disappointed though. We had a nice spot to sit, we had beer from Brewerks, everyone around us was happy, people were playing with canned foam and steamers and sparklers.
After Dan & Sharon came, we headed over to Punggol Park and they were closing oready so there were no more food orders. Tubs and Marcus went to the nearby coffeeshop and tapao-ed sping chicken, fries, oh luat, hokkien mee back for everyone to share.
Slept til evening on New Year’s Day and lazed around. Shiok. At nite, we decided to have a good meal so we went to ECP Seafood Center cos I was super craving bamboo clams BUT it was the wrong season so not a single restaurant had it. There were so many restaurants there and we couldn’t decide which to eat at. We finally chose the quietest one cos the service was great, plus they didn’t charge 10%, we didn’t have to pay if the food wasn’t up to par, and UOB card had additional 10% discount.
We ordered, fried noodles, black pepper crab, hotplate tofu, deep fried soon hock and cereal prawns. Lolx. Yes, just the 2 of us. We ended up tapaoing the noodles and I gotta say it was a damn shiok meal.
I think this is a fairly weird feeling New Year. I dunno how to describe it. It may be an omen for all I know. Or it may be nothing at all. I gotta try to clear my head abit. Usually once it reaches the first day of the year, I am in a good mood and my mind is fresh. But this year…… *sigh* I can’t even blog coherently.
I haven’t seen my darlings in too long. Mandy’s still not back yet cos one of her passengers passed away in Taiwan airport so she has to stay to assist the family so she’ll only be back tomorrow.
But once she’s back, everything is gonna be back on track!
