January 30 Stef's BirthdaySteffy got older! Yay! I absolutely love it when people get older... faster than me!
Wahahaha.....
Anyways, as of 3rd January... Stef and I became colleagues again (for like the 3rd time!) so we went out for lunch with her department to Mrs Kim's along Thomson Road for lunch.
Food was alright... but the fried pancake was absolutely delicious and so was the kimchii tofu soup. *slurp*
Someone commented I am a "trigger happy" girl.... i guess, it's always nice to take some pictures for memory wat! January 25 Sick...Wonder what's wrong with me....
Been sick quite often recently... first it was that bronchitis issue + hospitalization in Oct. Den i fell sick when i went Shanghai and den my 2nd week at work i fell sick and took mc on fri. And less than 2 weeks later i fell super sick again.
Started with sore eyes on sat (I swear i looked like i was punched on my right eye) which advanced to coughing, wheezing and watsnot. Went to work on Monday and died...
Right now, still coughing and having running nose but things seem to have improved.... Really hope to get well soon!! Maybe I am getting old...
Haahaa! January 21 Visiting my dearest Uncle TanPaid a visit to Uncle Tan's grave earlier today (CCK Lawn Cemetery - Very nice, calm and clean place with a pleasing breeze, lovely lawn grass and colourful windmills stuck to the ground all over the cemetary). I realise that i really really miss him very much.... 24/01/07 will be his 1st death anniversary and I wanted to see him desperately. Hence i headed off with my mum and bought him some white chrysanthemum with some forget-me-nots before we went to the grave. It then occured to me that after all these years and all the love he has showered on me (loads of my childhood pictures were taken by him too!), i realise i don't know what flowers he liked.
His sudden death last January (due to a heart attack) was a great blow to me... The last I saw him was in Nov 05 during jiejie's wedding and he had looked fine and healthy and was still teasing me endlessly (as he always do everytime he sees me). With his passing... my deepest regret is that I've yet to fulfil a promise I made to him. In the past year, I thought I'd have gotten over the pain of the loss but I guess the pain may have subsided to a corner but it does not mean it has gone away.
Funny how people only learn to treasure after they've lost something. For me, I can never show how much i treasure him because he is no longer around.
But I know he is in a much better place and is watching over us all in heaven.
In loving memory of my uncle vincent tan.... January 19 Blisters...Out of sheer vanity
Becos i was bladdy vain... i wore the peep toe HIGH heels yesterday, and it was PAINFULLLLLLL! Even after i bought the heel shield thing from scholl which cost me a good $10.90.... not helpful! I've got at least 3 blisters on each foot.... and for those of you who dont know... My feet has been treated with the most comfort all it's life.... flats no heels... no calluses and no blisters! But now.... now...nowwwwwwwwwwww I've got 6! Bladdy hell! My question is: Why must women wear heels? If dun wear dainty shoes = not woman? Yes yes, i know the whole point of wearing heels and etc make us look more graceful and watsnots but seriously???? Makes me wonder if we can mandate that all men should wear tight pants Argh!!!!! I'm not swearing off heels thou.... not that drastic yet (the only heels i'm swearing off is currently in the chamber of the abandoned rubbish...). Oh well...THAT is the price of vanity you may say... psst: sister commented last nite that I can tolerate the pain of motorbike accidents/burns and etc but whine when i suffer the pain of blisters.... so, in view of what she's said... I say, "TO ALL YOU CRAZY WOMEN OUT THERE (my sis included)... you have my utmost respect!!" *bows* January 16 Star Spotting...OooKies... for those of you who know me, you should know that I do not watch local TV.... which i think is bad considering the fact that i am currently working in the only local TV station in Sgp. Imagine if my boss was to ask me "so, did you watch this or that last night?" and i go "erh...erm....eh....ah..." DIE LA~ So as a result, i attempted to test my knowledge and kept a lookout for "stars" while i was walking around the company to see if i recognise any... and the conclusion is, I AM A COMPLETE DISASTER! *muahahahah* In my 2 weeks here, I've spotted Pierre Png, Wong Li-Lin, Patricia Mok (who i tot was the only one working cos i see her so damn often!), Adrian Pang, Desmond Koh, Li Guohuang & minions, and today (while walking to my building) I saw Chew Chor Meng and Kym Ng. I reckon I should have seen more than who I've listed above but guess my knowledge of the local artistes scene ended in the 90s' where 成人杂志 was super popular and 郑秀珍, 郭妃丽, 沈倾掞 & 李铭顺 were in Star Search 1995. I'm quite the disaster eh? January 15 My boring life...Had a rather boring weekend again... apart from the rare times i go out for awhile to get things done, Sun 14th Jan 2007 930am to 1015am - Wake up, wash up & wait for sister to go downstairs buy breakfast.1015am to 1045am - Breakfast with mummy and sister. 1045am - Prepare pail of water, cloth and start cleaning the multiple shelves and surfaces in room.11+am - Still cleaning...12+pm - Still cleaning.......1+pm - Still cleaning.............2+pm - Gave up cleaning.........

Have decided to cook dinner as i was sick of thinking what to eat from outside.4+pm - Phew, back home and relieved that i kept my incessant need to purchase more than i should under control.5pm - Done with marinating the meat, cut the veg and etc...And cleaning up the darn kitchen (mummy will scold if i mess it up). 5+pm - Walked around the house aimlessly... Decided to watch an episode of Love Gauranteed.6pm - Sister ask me to stop watching (must wait for her to watch together). So i decided to take a nap after i concluded that the lizards that resides in my house are probably too frightened by my pacing up and down...8pm - Woke up from nap....830pm - Start cooking (1stly, mum had something to eat at 3+ so she said have a later dinner! 2ndly, sister was out teaching tuition so cook early also no point)9pm - Done cooking. Wait for sister to come back...10pm - Darn sis came back late... 1030pm - Done with dinner... TV time!11pm - Sister done with cleaning up (Hey! We need to share the work wat!) and off to watch 2 episodes of Love Gauranteed.1245pm - Need to get a life (but den again, I'm just lazy to go out on weekends!)... muahahah! January 09 So far so good....It's been forever since i made any entry.... Anyways, for those of you who are curious about my life... I've just started work at Mediacorp TV. So far, things been pretty alright. The only thing i am not comfortable with is having to start work at 830am! You may think 'Chey! 830am is just 1/2 hour earlier than your previous job wat!' Plssssss! Start 1/2 hour earlier.... but i have to get into that stupid traffic jam (perpetual some more) along BKE & PIE every morning! So i actually gotta be out of my house at 750am can!!!!!! At least in Carat, I could leave the house much later and avoid most of the jam! Hahahah.... Anyways, as I've mentioned in my holiday entry... i was supposed to load some photos. For those of you who have not received the link from me (I've got like THREE HUNDRED over pictures), please let me know. I din mean to miss you out! Just that the re-organizing and loading took a blady long time & by the time i was done... i died-ded. Heehee.... Till i get my next inspiration... ciaoz. |
