finally had my much needed sleep

yep.. was feeling so lethargic throughout the week. couldn't have prayed more for weekend to come... slept at 10pm last night, woke up at 9am. 11 hours of sleeeeep.. i'm happy.. ^_^
all refreshed today. got the lo hei pics in office up and running..can't get the bluetooth connection to work so gotta upload the pics using the conventional USB cable..sigh. sometimes conventional methods are still the most reliable.

~jas mixing the ingredients according to eve's instructionsss.~

~being in the welfare committee, we decided to use the welfare $ to buy charity donation tickets for everyone...packaged in an auspicious ang pao.~

~our DIY yu sheng!~

and pasta de waraku was really oishii... now i can find an explanation to the long queues outside the restaruant.






~I was complaining how plain this prawn n mushroon pasta in wafu sauce looks. but when I took my 1st bite into it.. i learnt never to judge a book by its cover. it was really oishii. hey gals, let's have our next gathering there!~

accused.

1st CNY i lo hei so many times... 3 times in total. it's really just for the significance. hated the taste except for the keropok.

happy birthday everyone! it's ren ri!

really had too much sleep during CNY. now though it's back to routine, i'm feeling as if i'm being robbed of my sleep...my beauty sleep.

edison's news splashing all over the papers recently.. xin ming and wan bao's sales must have shot up like mad. pity the gals who had ex r/s with this immature playboy.

lost my temper at an ultra sensitive friend yesterday..she's super touchy about friendships stuff and she actually accused me for not making effort to arrange meet ups... yes, i emphasize...ACCUSED. coz i dun plead guilty at all. I was the one always arranging, deciding on the places to go, time to meet. People who always say anything, up to you all, i very flexible, are those who are always waiting for others to arrange.

this time round was pretty tight due to the other friend's hectic schedule coz she's preparing to go overseas for studies.. so end up, we could not meet up before she leaves. so.. my fault?? I already tried asking for dates but no one can make it. my fault?? and we're not that close also...we met once in like a year? and the last time we met up, i was the one who initiated it. Come on, to a person who believes in making effort to stay in touch, being accused really makes me go mad.

I felt bad after retorting back at her. but really accumulated la...feel like i'm always the one arranging gatherings. so naturally, i get a higher chance of kena-ing people fly aeroplane. not that i mind the arranging but it gets abit disappointing at times especially when you're not in the best of mood.

sometimes being a little more passive is good. people won't take you for granted.

a healthy start to the new year

the never ending trek started at 1.30pm at McRitchie. decided that had to do some exercise to work off all that bak kwa n pineapple tarts.. been leading a sedentary lifestyle ever since my lasik. time to 1234...2234...3234..

my 3rd time at the mcritchie..and it's a wonder how i managed to take a different route out to our starting point each time. this time was the worst i think.. we walked right into singapore island country club. were told we are in pte property and gotta walk straight ahead heading to lornie road expressway which will take us back to mcritchie.

It was 4.30pm..our legs were wobbly...okay..MY legs were wobbly and evil shit was regretting to go with my exciting idea of trekking on CNY day3. we walked...aruite...aruite... at 5pm, we were still in the golf course.. reached the main road at 5.15pm. surveying where we were, we realised we were already near adam road bukit timah area! As if it was the only and most sane decision, we both headed to the nearest bus stop. we were 4 bus stops away from the reservoir lor. thank god we didn't decide to aruite back........... dabao loads of food from adam road hawker and feasted like mad.. life was apparently so good that I never had a hunger pang in a long while. ha.


Ended the day with Kungfu Dunk which evil shit was so against watching but I guess he didn't have much choice with a jay fanatic here. heh. but it was not bad.. still prefer shaolin soccer though. jay is so funny.. usual bochup sheepish way of acting. i like!


some pictures taken before we got lost n tired.


~ love taking pretty hana!~

~ lots of monkeys accompanying us on our trek!~

~taking a break at this tower overseeing macritchie.. ~

~the tree top walk~

~ sun was too bright..eyes pretty sensitive to strong light at the moment. the price to pay for vanity tsk tsk~

~ my discovery channel bf..can stand at the same spot for 10min scrutinising the bark of a tree...me gotta amuse myself.~

Praying for Ratty Fortune!~

stomach just recovering from the mad rush of food... steamboat..curry...wu xiang...jelly... a mess of all kinds of food in different states, different heat, different taste...

CNY is like that..just a summary of mad rushes.

aunties rushing to stock up on food. practise food rationing just like in army.

people rushing to sell their food..le long like mad.

everyone rushing home to dine with their family. just like those kena stuck in china by the snowstorm.. shouting " wo yao hui jia! x100 times." as if that would appease the stormy weather and make planes fly, trains operational. it's for their safety that transport modes are frozen. i'm sorry...but it is just such a cheena thing to do this.

the good thing about this whole mad rushing is that we get that extra days off from work to get our well deserved rest. I wasn't looking forward to CNY... I was looking forward to the long hols.

Year of rat... read that i'll face financial problems.. must budget carefully.. as always. every year read my fortune..every year the same!!! no wealth.. sigh.. is there a mistake...how can roosters be poor every year?!

it's 10pm..time to sleep!
hope I dream of Fortune God tonight. Hope my friend gets into my department....then i'll have a great pal to work with.. hope I get an increment and surprise lump sum payments into my account...

Fortune god...... see ya later!

huat ah!

at evil shit's place now and looking forward to the da paolo pasta dinner we're gg to have! bought the ready made food from the restaurant which can be just cooked n heated up later... he kept exclaiming how good it was...so lemme chk it out.

meanwhile, just blogging while he's having his daily dosage of gaming.... praying for game over..!

oh..and finally got to try Popeye's chicken and biscuit today..at Changi Airport terminal 1. wasn't fantastic leh..about the same as KFC.. except there's no choice of original or crispy. standard crispy. the fries n mashed potato nicer tho. the unique thing was their bun which taste abit like biscuit...abit saltish.. but can't eat much of that also. Only grouse was we had to pay extra $1.50 for choosing chicken parts...ultimate ngeow and sian!!

something interesting happened in office yesterday.... my colleague did a pilot trial of a Cubicle Workout program. a guy armed with ipod n speakers went around the different divisions getting ppls' bums off their seats to do 15 min of quick workout right outside the cubicles. haha.. it was pretty fun when everyone exercises together.. heard that the response was good and it'll be here to stay!

he ended the workout instructing us to shout with determination......huat ah!

lon't listurb me..

da paolo's food was horrible! tink my homemade pasta much nicer...and cheaper.. only their desserts not bad la.. that's about it. we bought pizza, soups, pasta n sauce.... can u imagine..none are nice. must admire them la.. making terrible pasta is quite a difficult skill to acquire.

Btw, SAW was good... great storyline and fantastic twist to the show.. when we saw the ending we were like......woaaahhhhhh!!! that’s crazy. Must watch SAW 2 n 3!



met up w eve n shuyi at suki sushi and this little boy kept disturbing me.. frantically tapping on my shoulder and when I turn back excitedly to play w him, he turned away pretending nothing happened! so cheeky...i got duped a few times and refuse to respond no matter how much he listurb me....listurb n listurb.. he's a very cao bin kid..never really smiled no matter how we made funny faces.. lol..kawaii!

~tap tap tap...~
~he looks bored most of the time~

anyway, been listening to Soda Green's 小情歌...love it!

小情歌 - 演唱:苏打绿

这是一首简单的小情歌
唱着人们心肠的曲折
我想我很快乐
当有你的温热
脚边的空气转了
这是一首简单的小情歌
唱着我们心头的白鸽
我想我很适合
当一个歌颂者
青春在风中飘着
你知道就算大雨让这座城市颠倒
我会给你怀抱
受不了看见你背影来到
写下我度秒如年难捱的离骚
就算整个世界被寂寞绑票
我也不会奔跑
逃不了最后谁也都苍老
写下我时间和琴声交错的城堡

千谎百计

been too caught up at work.. been a really hectic week and i'm glad that TGIF is here..

been too crazy over "Price of Greed" aka 千谎百计.. super exciting show!! about the 8 conman who team up , playing different roles of a huge scam to cheat rich ppl of their wealth. ahhh... show starting in 15 min...yay.

went for eye review today...degree is 0! cool ah..but cornea will take up to 2 mths to fully heal. eye muscles still tired but they're getting better each day.

just found out a colleague has been hiding the truth about her boyfriend (who is actually an ex-colleague).. she's been hiding for like at least half a year from us lor!! omg.... really 千谎百计! someone spotted them together recently and i told them innocently cannot be. met her today and asked her. think she was dazed when I asked her outright " u not with eric right?" she just shook her head with a slightly taken aback look with 0 words of defence....which is a weird reaction. i would scream and deny loudly if i heard such rumours lor. then she quickly digressed. knew her for half year laio..could tell she lying straight away. But didn't question her la..since she's uncomfortable admitting. personal stuff... but really found it quite funny. no wonder she refuses to show me the pic of her bf...and never puts her bf's pic on facebook or frenster...heh.

now everything seems to fall into place.

千谎百计 !
