Ytd & today was so damn bored at work. All my work on hand are completed & i'm left with nothing to do. Futhermore, the bulk of my work comes from my big boss & he is on business trip & thus i'm freeee. Got nothing to do but still have to act like veri bz like tat, so sianz.
Dear's coming back from his camp chalet today. Although he's away for only 2, 3 days but i miss him. Ytd dear says he's thinking of booking chalet on christmas eve & christmas day itself. So i immediately called up chevrons to enquire abt available chalet rooms but all fully booked le. Actually expected lah cos it's so cheap. So no choice can only booked costa sand or downtown east one & it's gonna be much more ex. This weekend nothing much to look forward to cos dear is working.
Dear bought a pink nalgene bottle for me. Thank you dear dear.

Went to had dinner at Mc & then shop ard JP before gg home. I bought a skirt from Bega, Biore facial foam & make-up remover from watson while dear bought a very nice shirt for $12 only. The kinda shirt he has been looking for for a long time, gd bargain! hehe. It's shopping time! Tml's monday again! I HATE mondays! Argh! The working cycle starts all over again, i've been dragging myself to work these days cos i've beginning to feel tat i dun belong there anymore. I mus find motivations in my work, only then will i feel happy working there. But i doubt i can find any motivations there. Sometimes i feel so lonely at work, no confidant, nobody to hear me bitched abt my boss & colleagues. I'm all alone, all by myself. 
Watched Initial D at JP with dear just nw, caught the 4:30pm show. Nice show, quite a number of funny scenes. I give it 3.5 stars out of 5. I'm not a Jay Chou fan, i catch tat movie because i heard alot of positive reports abt this movie. Ya.. luckily it din let me down. Jay's acting was not bad considering this was his first movie.

This afternoon went chinatown earlier to shop ard first before meeting eileen & jamie at chinatown for dim sum at yum cha. Gio having 30% storewide so bought a pair of kahki shorts for dear dear, haven't bought anything for him for a long time le. Tat day bought 2 polo tees (pink & purple) for myself at 2 for $30, but nw gio selling at $13.30 each. Argh! Aniway, food at yum cha was not bad but i think the buffet dim sum at dragon gate is better. After dim sum session we went to the shop which i always get my hair products from. Water matrix stock is still not here yet, argh! So long le stock still not here yet, the ends of my hair is getting so dry. Think it's time i ask my aunt to trim as well as colour my hair. Btw, my aunt got her S'pore PR le, so happy for her~
Was so tempted to eat the bread from Papa Roti when eileen & jamie bought drinks from ther so in the end i bought bread & milo even though i was feeling veri full. Took train back to boon lay and waited for dear to knock off while i shop at JP. Dear came to meet me at ard 7:30, went to the pasar malam, had shark fin soup & then went home. Till nw still feeling bloated.
Finally received the time table fer my eng 'o' level exams.

Just came back from JP with my dearie, did some window shopping. On the way to JP, dear said something which make me realised tat all this while i haven't been showing much care & concern towards this work. I only care abt when his off days are so tat i can plan on stuffs we can do on his off days. So selfish of me! I din know tat he has got so much stress at work, cos he always tell me those happy stuffs & then kept all those unhappy stuffs to himself. My poor dear! Not only does he have to go through the stress at work he also have to give in to my unreasonable demands. I'm sorry dear. I'm keeping my fingers crossed & hoping that he's not gg to be posted to tekong so soon. I REALLY hope it won't be so soon. If not i really cannot imagine wat my life would be like having to see him for only 2 days every week. Argh!
This afternoon went over to his grandma hse to celebrate his cousin, Royston 1st birthday. Initally din want to go one cos i was angry with dear for not coming over to my hse to accompany me last nite. Then he used the same old trick again by asking his sis to call me & ask me if i wanna go to their grandma hse. So in the end i went.
Ytd was so tired after a long day of shopping with my dear friends, eileen & ling at Orchard. Bought a gio top & a pair of gold pumps from far east at $17.90. Like it alot.. hehe. Initially there is a band of pearls on each of the shoe, but i cut it off & made it into bracelet instead.
Had so much fun shopping with my friends ytd and next sat i'm gg to Yum Cha with eileen. So looking forward to sat. Tml have to start working again, argh! I Hate Mondays! Tml sure gg to have monday blues. Ohh.. how i miss those non-working days. Tata! Blog again real soon!

Was just reading through my biao mei's blog & realised tat i miss her sooo much. Almost teared when i read the part where she says... to me.. they r important. Ya.. u are impt to me as well. Study hard & take gd care of urself. Rmb, no matter wat happens biao jie will always be there for u. Got a sudden rush to fly over to sydney to look for her but no... i'm not supposed to take any long leave nw & futhermore i dun have extra money to go on holiday nw.
Ytd ask my bro to help me get eng 'O' levels 10-years series from his workplace (popular). hehe. The feeling is like gg back to sec sch days preparing for 'O' levels. Starting to do the 10-years series as and when i'm free to farmilarize & prepare myself for the paper. Kinda miss sch life, i wan to go back to sch. I miss my group of sec sch friends, haven't seen them for soo long. Ling & eileen are the ones i always hang out with, where are the rest?
Got nothing better to do so i went to read through my past entries & realised tat i have been blogging for a long time, close to a year. Read of reports before tat says online blogs usually have short life -span of 9 months only. After which bloggers will abandon their blog as they find it a chore to write. I'm happy tat i'm actually still blogging, though nt as often as i used to. It's gd to have an online journal, nt only can i share experience & thoughts with other people, it also reminds me of the ups & downs i've went through in life.
Something's very wrong with me today, i seem to keep reminiscing the past, missing my biao mei, missing school life, missing my group of sec sch friends. Missing everything~

I'm so sleepy nw~ *yawn* Mus be the flu medicine i took taking effect & thus causing me to be so drowsy. I'm gg to take a nap after typing this entry. Went to visit the doc again last nite after work cos my flu & cough have yet to recover. Got an MC for today cos the medicine will cause me to be drowsy.
These days are so damn bz at work, got so much things to handle. Working life sucks. Alright! Nothing much to update on. Shall stop here for today. Btw, my second foto gallery is up cos the first one was full after up-loading tones & tones of photo into it.

First of all, today is my brother's 21st Birthday. Happy 21st Birthday Bro!
Afternoon time, went to the Harbin Ice Wonderland at Bugis with dear. Before gg there we had pure chocolate drink & thousand leaves cake at bugis coffeebean. Thousand leaves cake was supposed to be veri nice one, but the one at bugis was nt nice at all, nt fresh one. After which, we went to the ice wonderland, entrance fees was $16 & $2 for coat rental. It was sooo sooo COLD, minus 15 degree celsius lei. Our fingers, ears & nose all went numb. I bought jacket & shawl, ask dear to bring his own jacket but he dun wan, so in the end let him use my shawl to wrap ard his neck. Body still nt so cold cos we got the thick thick coat tat we rented but our fingers were trembling.
Well, the place quite small only & nothing much to see, nt very amazing. It the cold temp tat excites us more, whenever i take pics of dear he will try to show tat there is smoke coming out of his mouth, but i can't capture the smoke & thus making the pic looks so ugly. Eiffel Tower, Merlion, Holland Windmill, London Bridge were some of the ice sculptures. We were inside for less than an hr & then the both of us ran to the exit cos we were soo cold. Alright! Here are some of the pics taken there.

Have it ever crossed ur mind wat does RSVP stands for? I always see it in wedding invitations but dun know wat it stands for. So the curious me search the dictionary & found this:
RSVP
repondez s'il vous plait: A French expression meaning 'please reply': used on written invitations to ask the person invited to say whether they can go to a social event or not
