A PLANNED ending of 2005!

Just got back from Batam. It's a OK trip. We stayed at Planet Holiday, in Batam City. Not really as good as Holiday Inn near the beach, but away from the city. Anyway, how Alvin and I spend on our Xmas and our "dunno" how many yrs and mths anniversary... visit our blog.

This whole week, being the last week of 2005, I will be on annual leave. It gonna be a another fruitful and well planned week.

Monday: Just got back from Batam.. of coz spent my morning and afternoon in the hotel, lazing around with Alvin. A lazy Monday. And got back in the evening.

Tuesday: Today, just take a rest at home in the afternoon. Will meet Alvin for dinner. Didn't really wanna have dinner at home, didn't wanna trouble my mum to cook for me, since she's busy with her granddaughter and cooking nutritious meals for my sis-in-law. Poor mum, don't have time for herself. I hope she's will get outa this soon!

Wednesday: Whole day for DAWN. Dawn and I planned to go Puala Ubin for a cycle.... haven't been there for ages! We pray that it wouldn't rain. If not, gonna go for plan B!

Thursday: Meeting up with Steph, Cuiyi and Shirley... My secondary school friends!!! Will have a simple dinner at Marina Square. Before meeting them, I thought of going for my hair rebonding... Still thinking... Shall I?

Friday: Gonna meet Xin Yi, my ex-colleague, for tea in the late afternoon. He's on leave too! And meeting my boy after that when he's off work.

Saturday: Going Sungie Buloh for a walk with Alvin in the afternoon, hope it don't rain... Dinner will be somewhere less crowded. WHERE? Yet to come out with a place! any suggestions? besides cooking at home.

Sunday: NEW YEAR DAY!!! Yet to plan... ha haaa.. maybe for a movie...

Monday: Gonna stay at home to rejuvenate. ha haaa... preparing for work the next day.

Gonna make this week a fruitful one.. gonna do things that i can't do when i m at work. Like going to Puala Ubin... can't wait.... Here i come... Mother Nature!

I wish everyone's a lovely ending of 2005. And an excellent 2006!

CHEERS!

My 3 weeks old little Niece - Hazel


That's my new little niece - HAZEL... only 3 weeks old. haa haa... 7th Dec 05 was her birthday. She's adorable when she's not crying. When she starts to cry, I will be panic and run away and leave her to my mum or her mum to hoax her. Although i don't involve in taking care of her, the way i see my mum and my sis-in-law running up and down the house just to get Hazel comfortable, i m kinda afraid that this day will come for me. Geee... i can't imagin i m going to do these sorta things in a few yrs time. I will be dragging myself to that stage.

She's adorable when she's quiet, when she's sleeping... hee hee...

Last day of Work in 2005...


Hurray! It's my last day of work for the year 2005. Of coz i will be on standby to pick up Doctor's call when they call my mobile. But i will be waking up late, go wherever i want, doing things that i can't do when i m working. Hurray!


From the left: Gene's Ice-cream, Fondue shared with between the girls- Reema, Yenling, Eunice and me. Below: Eunice and Me! And supposely I've took a piz of Yenling and Reema, but it wasn't saved in my fone! Sob Sob!

Today I had a so-call Xmas Lunch with my colleagues(Gene, Eunice, Reema and Yenling) at paragon... I wanted to treat them... but the bill turn out to be kinda expensive... And i m on budget in a way, becoz need to save up for "something".... I was pretty disappointed that i can't give them all a treat. But they are understanding and we went dutch. Haa haa... i guess my facial expression was very obvious. haa haa.... Hey, colleagues - if u are reading this... Sorry. But I hope that they like the mug that i got them as xmas present. Anyway, I manage to treat them at Hagen Daz (Dunno how to spell.. hee hee! not really a fan of ice-cream!). That makes me feel better. ha ahaa...

In the evening, I went to watch Narnia (Click piz to the official website). It's free, tix were from Alvin's boss. Anyway, i tot it's another kiddy movie.. but after watching that I personally feel that it's worth watching. It's excellent! Well, we can relate the movie to the bible - The lion is a symbol of Jesus Christ and the 4 kids maybe the apostles. And one of the kid drift off to the evil side for awhile, i believe this refers to a apostle in the bible too huh? And the white witch is obviously the satan. haa haa... Am i right? Check out the movie.. it's worth watching.
Synopsis:
C.S. Lewis' timeless adventure THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA: THE LION, THE WITCH AND THE WARDROBE follows the exploits of the four Pevensie siblings - Lucy, Edmund, Susan and Peter - in World War II England who enter the world of Narnia through a magical wardrobe while playing a game of 'hide-and-seek' in the rural country home of an elderly professor.Once there, the children discover a charming, peaceful land inhabited by talking beasts, dwarfs, fauns, centaurs and giants that has become a world cursed to eternal winter by the evil White Witch, Jadis. Under the guidance of a noble and mystical ruler, the lion Aslan, the children fight to overcome the White Witch's powerful hold over Narnia in a spectacular, climactic battle that will free Narnia from Jadis' icy spell forever.
And... finally, i will be spending my Xmas with Alvin in Batam... A SPAZZIE XMAS.... haa haa....
Meanwhile, have an excellent xmas and a wonderful new year.
God Bless...

I m BACK!

Hi Hi...

Haven't post anything since last last weekend. I was busy meeting up with friends and I was too excited about going KL and was too tired when i got back from KL. haa haa..

We had fun in KL. Except that the travelling part is not fun! Last Friday (16th Dec 05) we got onto the bus at 8am. With all the traffic jams (as usual), we reached KL city at 3pm! Not to waste anytime, after we check-in (Berjaya Times Sq), put down our stuffs, freshen up, we went to Sungei Wang to SHOP! Alvin and I got HEAPS of DVDs! haa haa... Alvin and i, Yunxian and Joe went seperate ways to shop... to save time... see how desperate we are to save time! ha ahaa..

Most of the time, the boys are just following us. The gers were the ones got the most stuffs... and when we, gers, shopped till we dropped, that's when there's chance for the boys to shop! Both of the boys hardly got anything. And they end up richer than us! haa haa..

Yunxian and I got a number of shoes. Yunxian got some clothes. And I spend most of my money on DVDs. haa haa...

After Sungie Wang, we went to Petaling St (Night Market). Not much for us to shop! Many of the shops are selling the same stuffs. it's huge, but not much of varities. Alvin and I sat down in one of the back ally.. kinda cool! and we had Assam Laska and Curry Laska there! I was pretty afraid of food poisoning (Stomach's pretty sensitive). Anyway, it taste AWESOME!

And that's our Day 1 in KL... very tiring... we went back to hotel room, after a hot shower, we slept dead on the bed!

Day 2... We went to Mid Valley Mall... Gee... it's HUGE! But we manage to briefly finish shopping before 4+pm. ha haaa... Alvin and Joe manage to got some stuffs for themselves. haa haa.. I guess, there's not much penny left in the gers pocket! ha haa! Alvin got a 22L Dueter bag at only S$57. That's very cheap!

We went back to hotel, Yunxian and I decided to go for eye lash perming... it's only RM$28, while Alvin went to the gym for some workout and Joe went shopping himself! by the time we are done, it's almost 8pm. ha haaa... as our eyes were sensitive to the chemical, both of our eyes were swollen like goldfish! Haa haa.. Anyway, although we don't look good after that... we went ahead to the Theme park in the TIMES SQUARE! That's cool... theme park in the shopping mall! Only the roller coaster is fun! the rest... don't seems to be interesting.. it's either slow and boring, or definately will feel giddy after the ride! So we didn't try all the rides there!

AND FINALLY... I have been waiting for this moment... SPA!!! we skip our dinner, went to SPA at JOJOBA Spa at 10pm... GOASH! it's only S$47 per person... with full body scrub and massage!! GEEEE.. it's like heaven!!! ha ahaa... ALL of us were so "SHIOK" after that!! haa haa!

And we were super hungry after the spa, we walk to Jln Imbi (i think) something like FOOD STREET at chinatown in singapore. Gee.... food there is so EXPENSIVE! it's like at the road side stalls. I was so surprise that we have to pay RM$9 for a small plate of Cuttlefish with Kang Kong! i m sure we can get something cheaper than that in a nice air-con foodcourt in Singapore! To the locals, it's very expensive!

Anyway, i feel like i was in Hong Kong. People there speaks Cantonese... And Phew, i am a cantonese who don't speak cantonese, but understands the language! haa haa.

it was a good to sleep after the massage that night! ha ahaa... We were so tired that Alvin and I didn't woke up for breakfast the next day. We slept till 11am (lucky, yunxian rang us and woke us up!) and we shop around Berjaya times square! By then, i was broke... and i didn't buy anything from there! :)

And at 3pm, we left KL... back to singapore! Another long ride back to singapore! Sigh!

Anyway, i will be going Batam with Alvin again for SPA! ha aha... wat a SPAZZIE mth! ha haaa... Cheers...

A week for me to catch up with Friends!


Last week was a fruitful week for me. I met up with Dawn for Dinner to celebrate her birthday! (Above pix) Brought her to Raffles Marina to see sun set... kinda weird to go there with my working clothes... but it's OK! Who cares! I hope she enjoys herself with the beautiful scenery... and a lovely friend like me.. he ehee.. We took heaps of piz! Hurmmm...all pix that we took are with her! it's her camera! They are lovely! We had to leave early, becoz i was tired and it's kinda far and I gotta work the next day! It was a short meeting thou... ha haaa... But i think it's memorial! Dawn, hope u had an excellent birthday celebration on your actual day!

The day before i went to KL, I met up with my classmates (Above pix) from St Theresa's Convent! We had dinner at Blooie's in Science Park2. COOL!! Many of us looks the same as compared to when we were younger! ha haaa! We had a great time! And we exchange Xmas gifts! Surprisingly, i was amazed that Cuiyi and I had to exchange with each other (we drew lots)...
Cuiyi and I had been partners in the class since Sec 2. ha ahaa... we had fun during secondary school days... we cheated in tests together, we play basketball with a group of friends together. One thing that i hate about her... is her FENG YOU!! haa haa... She knows i hate it so much! ha ahaa.... SIGH... those were the days! And that nite, we were fated to exchange gifts with each other! ha ahaa..
And I am so glad that i am still keeping in touch with those lovely gers! Hey, whoever's reading this, we should do that again! ha ahaa... Flooding each other's email just to get this whole thing organised. Haa haaa... See u gers at Gina's Wedding!! We know what to do with her huh!

Extraordinary Weekend...

On Saturday... Alvin and I went to the ZOO... ha haaa.. Yeap... ZOO! Day's started good and sunny.... Was a good walk in the zoo. And we had fun! Then sky starts looking unfriendly when we were at the lions... and it started to rain when we were at the leopards. Thank God, it was sheltered... And both of us hasn't got any umbrella's with us. So we sat at the leopards and we took a NAP there until the rain stopped. It was almost an hour nap with the leopards. Haa haa... that weather's good for napping... ha haaa... it was extraordinary - Sleeping in the ZOO a glass away from the leopards. Haa haa...

In the evening, we went to watch SAW2. (Click on the picture to offical Saw2 website). I think it's good. Worth watching if u dare. It's a little gruesome. But that's alrite with me. But I haven't seen SAW part 1, so i can't compare which is better. Will be getting the DVD from KL next weekend. Will comment again. :) haa...

Caught Chicken Little too someday during the weekdays with Yenling. (Click on the picture to Chicken Little offical website) Geee, dunno whether I m too tired after work, or this cartoon's boring. I felt asleep during the show. I, personally, don't like this cartoon, it's alittle silly. I think it's meant for kids. I think there were more kids than adults in that theatre. :p
Seems that i didn't review on the other 2 movies that i caught a few weekends back huh...
Watched Prime last weekend, it was good one! interesting plot. (Click pix to Prime offical website). Rafi Gardet (Uma Thurman) is a newly divorced 37-year-old career woman who regularly spills her woes to her therapist, Lisa Metzger (Meryl Streep). Rafi's love life takes a sudden upturn when she meets Bryan Greenberg (David Bloomberg), a penniless painter who lives on the Lower East Side with his grandparents and, at 23, is significantly younger than Rafi.
From both Kill Bill and Kill Bill2, we all know that Uma Thurman's good at fighting and killing and she's good when she's acting in serious roles. But in Prime's she's as good in this romentic comedy. Worth watching too.
Hmmm... this one, i watched Harry Potter (Click on the picture for offical Harry Potter's website) the previous weekend after last weekend. Hmmm, i think it's OK... if u are a fan of Harry Pottter, maybe you LOVE it. I hear from my colleague, Eunice, that it's better to read the book. Haa haaa... being a lazy girl, i don't think i will be reading that SUPER thick, dictionary look-alike HARRY POTTER book. Hmmm.... I personally don't really enjoy it. Pretty OK only. :) I think the 1st part is nice. :)
Oh well, 4 more days to go for my KL trip with Alvin, Yunxian and Joe. Ha ahaa... Can't wait.
U must be wondering how's life with a little baby at home... ha haa... I took a look at her... she's lovely when's she sleeping... hmmm.. can't tell she looks more like my bro or my sis in law yet. too young to tell. Today's her first full day at home and i m lazing at home the whole day too... Goash... i was woken by her CRY a few times.. early in the morning 4am, then 9am... then 5pm. Geee... She's only quiet when she's asleep. Phew... i don't have to do anything with this little princess.... I don't even dare to touch her... she looks so fragile, so worried that she will cry when i touch her... ha haaa... Anyway, this little princess will be attended by her parents and my mum.... ALL the BEST to them... ha haaa... Oh no... this day will come to me in a few more years. Another few more years to enjoy! geee.... Can't wait she grows up alittle older... then i can play with her. :)
Yeap... will be away from singapore the next 2 weekends. Will write again when i got time.
Cheers... and just in case, i don't meet u these few weeks on MSN or personally - HAVE AN EXCELLENT CHRISTMAS AND NEW YEAR!
Cheers for this festive holidays... and AWS (annual wage supplement - for those who work in Singapore)! ha ahaa....

I'm tired today...


Finally it's FRIDAY! And I m extremely tired now...

Maybe because I haven't got enough sleep for the whole week.


Tues met up with my FRIENDS (Pix Above) for dinner after work... Got a car, drove there, park there, after dinner, drove every of my friends back... and I reached home at 12:30am. And by the time, i sleep it's 1:30am... I should be in bed at 11:30pm... SOB SOB. But it's worth it to meet up with them, I was having fun... Especially with Steph's Cameras... ha haaa...

And on Thurs, I met up with Dawn... had a LONG and Serious Chat... And we had dinner at Pepper Lunch. Being a beef lover, I personally like it, it can be awful to other ppl, depending on how u cook it on the hot plate. As for me, I like it rare... i left my steak on the hot plate not long. Again.. the chat was really interesting and enjoyable that I left late and i couldn't get a cab from Orchard that evening... sigh. Waited for quite some time, and came a cab. And I slept late too.

And oh yes, my little niece is born on Thurs (8 Dec) in the afternoon, just drop by at Glenagles Hospital with DAD after work. Got my sis-in-law bouquet of lilies, and I was there for 5 mins, didn't even get to see the little princess, and I left. Don't feel like staying there longer, as i need to go also for my dinner appointment. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, little princess...

Hmmm... I am praying that I don't get all the post natal depression nonsense from my sis in law. I am really fear of this. It's not a good feeling to get scolded for no good reasons. it really spoils someone's day. I fear that this day will come... SOB SOB. Becoz of this fear, I can't really sleep well. SIGH. Yeah, I m crazy to react this way huh... But I can't help it. I ever being scolded by her for no GOOD reason a few mths back, and i seriously hate that feeling of getting all these PRE natal nonsense from her. Nobody's born to get scolded for nothing. Agree?

SIGH... Well, the show must go on... and I pray hard for not getting those nonsense from her.

Took this pix from Reema's fone... and I tot it's a good piz to share with my friends. That's Me and Eunice, we happened to wear the same kind of top that day to work, haaa.. so funny..., and so we were having fun taking piz... (Eunice, now u can copy this piz! ha aha.... go and change ur fone lar...)

I m so tired and yet i can write heaps on this blog huh.... no too bad. Gotta Sleep soon... catch ya later!

Opps and yes, i believe there's heaps of spelling and grammer errors all over the place... bear with it.. too lazy to edit. ha haaa..

Cheers...

~ Difference between MEN and WOMEN~

My theory about Men and Women....
MEN is like a bottle of wine, the more vintage it is, the more valuable it is. But of coz must be kept (maintain) in a good temperature.
WOMEN is like a bottle of opened wine, the longer it's left outside and no one drinks it, it will taste horrible and no one wants to drink it. It's unwanted. In the end, it could be used for cooking or throw to the drain. - UNWANTED.
Agree?
