GOODBYE 2008


Finally Its the end of a tiring and fufilling year (maybe not haha).

But both Emma and I are just glad its a start of a new year,

which gonna be a Fresh New START for both of us in another 15mins!!

HELLO 2009!!

This should be my last Blog entry of 2008.

In fact, Im quite happy today....and excited

we passed by Courts and grab an unexpected deal.

Its the last day of sale, and I decided I shouldnt miss it so we made our last

purchase for the year.

$999 for a 32 Inch Samsung LCD TV with a free Samsung Fridge.

Think its a good deal, for that price I got 2 items which is just great.

My Tv has been spoilt for months, I've been reading shows (subtitles) instead of

watching and my fridge going bonkers soon. Cheapo Char just cannot bear t
o

splurge on new fridge for my tenants! :P


Figure that the TV will last me even after reno end of 2009, we decided to grab

the deal fast.... hehe so excited, in another 2 days I will be able to watch tv

shows instead of reading.... Yeah yeah yeah.

** counting down **

SILLY ANGIE

Received a call this morning from Angie herself, informing me that she was diagnosed with Dengue Fever. Which doesn't come as a shock to me, but I'm rather surprised by what she have told me.

She have insisted to the Doctor @ SGH that her red spots are not from Dengue but is the usual red spots she have whenever she got fever. She told me its "Feng Mo"! Gal, you are obviously in self-denial state, dont you remember what Feng Mo look like, the last time i got it??!!

Anyway I'm glad she is at home now and from the sound of it, she doesn't sounds like someone who's just been diagnosed with Dengue Fever! Amazing!! With her usual loud laughter and chirpy tone, she as good as before.

By now, I believe she is preparing for her Genting Trip on Thurs, i think there is no way we can dissuade her from giving it a miss, as she is happily ask me for tips how to cheat on her platelet count, and as much as I'm aware, she is thinking of cheating on her medication too.

Someone please, educate her, if Dengue condition worsens, it might cause death. Even if not to that extend, I believe no one would ever want to risk falling sick while travelling, esp in Msia!

P/S: Angie, please don't ever think of cheating on your platelet count, and that bag of medication to be complete in full as prescripts.
**************************************************************************************************

During our conversation, I realised how sucky is the hospitals here... all the news report about S'pore having world-class medical service must be fake!!

A: Eh, why u go hospital never tell me huh? I would have ask you to go SGH cuz CGH no good de ley. But Tan Tock Seng is the worse lah!

Me: Huh, I dunno mah, never go A&E before and its the nearest so I go. Now then I know the docter there heck care.

A: Then you want to reschedule your specialist appointment to SGH mah, in case by mid Jan its too late!

Me: Dunno lah, I go for TCM now, so maybe dont even need the specialist liao or i already bedridden. So how much is your Medical Bill in A&E last night?

A: Its $90 ley

Me: Wah, not bad ley! Better than me, only pay $15 more and you get to sleep the whole night there and did some tests. I pay $75, only sleep for 2 hours and 1 bag of medication + 1 jab.

A: Huh?? You got bed for 2 hrs of observation ar, how come so good??! I dont even have a bed ley.. so whole night i didnt sleep!

Me: WTF, no bed , then u stay where the whole night??!

A: Ask me to sit at the waiting area to wait for results lor! Damn Xin ku

Me: Oh shit, that sucks lor. Even though the observatory room is noisy and i cant sleep, but at least I got a bed lor. Then u still says SGH better than CGH!
****************************************************************************************************
I think its crazy, how good can the service be, if a patient with high fever have to sit the whole night at the waiting area waiting for test results?! Its just as the same, my docter suspects the nerves around my spine area are affected, yet he didnt schedule for immediate checks.

In short, SGH = CGH= TTS = Lousy! Blah...

NEEDLES VS PAINKILLER

Needles Vs Painkiller, I think I will chose the former even though it hurts.

Went for Acupuncture session yesterday, the pain subsided for a while before it starts coming back again. Imagine I have 16 needles on me, I was advise to do this consecutively for a few times before i can see results, but as the physician said "Dont expect to recover fully by just acupuncture. I'm so sad when I hear that, cuz I was born with a spine defect, so I'm just more prone to back injury than normal people . Emma try to cheer me up, once I'm up and ready to workout, we shall hit the gym again religiously to strengthen my back and muscle.


Been on Painkiller and muscle relaxant for days now, 3 times a day .. I think i can easily puke painkiller by now! Its not doing much for my back, except the pain lessen and comes on on and off within mins. I cant even walk properly, anything distance more than 5-10 mins prove to be too tedious for me.Wonder how am I going to make it to work tomorrow?!


Its so frustrating, all these medication are causing gastric pains even when Im on gastric medication that was double strength. Hope this end before Xmas, I have no wish to spend my xmas eating painkiller for dinner.

**************************************************************************
Not sure is it really Bad December or purely bad luck for me and Angie. At this very moment, just 3 days after me, She is in SGH now! Suspected to be infected by virus or Dengue Fever. High fever coupled with red spots, gosh that is such a deadly combi!

Sorry, I wast there for you when u needed help, but I wish u recover soon!
Hope its wasnt virus infection or Dengue fever, just some weird red spots that will go away soon!

God bless us please , that we can spend the rest of our 2008 (1.5wks more to go) peacefully!

I Hate December

Haven been blogging for 2 weeks liao... kenna flu, then plague by Migraine constantly...
Finally all the trouble ends... I assume. So Im wrong.

For no reason, I woke up with a severe lower back pain yesterday. Couldnt walk or move, I even have to lie on the bed for 2 hours waiting for Emma to come rescue me! Luckily he came back on time if not i would have pee in my pants on the bed... Haiz...

The pain was excuriating and unbearable, I was crying from the pain trying to stand and walk. Emma then bring me to CGH A&E, from there i was given a shot of painkiller to relief the pain and sent to observation for 2 hrs. 1st time ever in my life, I was in a wheelchair, being wheel around like a handicap. Before that, he was asking if I can squat or touch my kneecap. Please lor, I was already needing a wheelchair, cant walk with support, of cos not right? I wonder if he is bring his brain to work! He insist I try to touch my kneecap, so I try... cant even bend.. he saw my face , I was in so much pain before he gave up trying! I swear we both will have spit in his face if he have insist i try to squat!!


The doctor @ A&E was rather sucky... prescript more painkiller and MC, before he send me back home to rest.
Fixed me up with a specialist for thorough checks and scan which is like in another 1 month time, while he himself couldnt tell me what went wrong.

I was freaking out from the pain, and he say I could have injured myself from dunno what... maybe SLEEPING?! I was like What the hell, You might have just kept your mouth shut!
All these for $75 bucks, not worth it.....

So as usual, i return home with a whole lot of Question Marks in my head and a big bag of Painkiller.. wondering what happen that cause the freaking Trauma in the morning.

Now I fear to sleep, the medication is not working very well, each time i sleep from the drowsy of medication, I would wake up to the same pain and not able to walk or get off the bed without assistance. From now till 12 Jan 09, my next appointment with the specialist, seriously wonder if I would have been paralysed or bedridden by then.

I hate December and Xmas.
Dec 08, I woke up with excruiating pain for unknown reasons, Dec 07, I slip and fell in the bathroom and hurt my lower back again, bedridden for a week before I can walk. Dec 06 Xmas eve, the start of the trouble when I 1st pulled the back muscle.

Whats coming up next??... God please end all these trouble for me ... Plsssss...............

WE LOVE PRADA - PART2

After a week(5 days) of pondering, I finally succumb to temptations.

I went for Retail Therapy straight after work. Rush down to Orchard as fast as

I could as the SA @ PRADA told me

there is some wallets on sale finally...

so excited I could get hyperventilation!

As I marched into Prada, I went quickly to the sales section,

Nope... not a single wallet that i fancy,

and the Love of my life was co-incidentally displayed next to the Sale corner.

Its was not on sale, Haiz....... seems that it was telling me to bring it home and .......

but i refused to give in, walked round the whole boutique look for other wallets,

but non was attractive enough to catch my attention.

So I heed IT's call, I brought it home this time...........


In less than 30 mins, I left Prada with

THESE

:
:
:
:



I swear these are not impulsive buys!

I swear these will be the last "bag" purchase of the 2008

Which is like another 3 weeks to go

Lao gong, I SWEAR I will not change wallet again for the next 2 yrs!

OH Fuck, In short, I so happy I doubt I can sleep tonight!!!

Note:
1) To Irene: dont worry you wont have a heart attack as your wallet is not on sale
2) To Marina: Dont worry, you can rest assured and go into Prada. I doubt you will fancy the sale items.

CREATIVE METHOD OF DELAYING PAYMENT

I chanced upon this article when i was reading XiaXue's blog.

Im into credit control and have my fair share of chasing for payment.
But this is the most ridiculus way of defaulting payment.
I think i would die of puking blood or I kill the debtor, if someone ever try this on me!

WE LOVE PRADA

Today was a leg breaking shopping trip for me.... as Irene went wallet shopping! We pass by Taka like 3 times, and for the 1st time ever in my life, i visit the same Mac outlet 3 times in a day, to rest my tired feet and back and also to quench our thirst.

And Fuck, I actually forgotten to bring camera along... Everywhere was SALE but ended up our roving eyes were attracted to non-sale item @ PRADA... DAMN!

Finally her damage for the day was $570, in metallic silver. Simply gorgeous &
Chic!
Irene keep saying she will be "strike by lighting" for being such a spendthrift. But Irene dont you worry, cuz if lighting strike i think will strike me 1st ok!





(Pic credit from Irene's blog)

And I was attracted to this beauty even thou i was never a fan of PRADA! The leather is heavenly and divine...



Marina and Irene have asked me to calm down and think it through... but i think i will get this beauty by next week! Its too hard to resist...

Now in my mind and heart were screaming for Prada, Prada, Prada WALLET .....how to calm down?


I sworn to my hubby that i will not buy anything for the rest of the year, and apparently things didnt went accordingly to my plan.


There is even a matching Bag for it and the cost of the bag was a whopping $3820. How to get this bag, if i never strike 4D???


My Xmas wishes is for Santa to come visit me!
Xmas is coming, how come Santa never visited me for the past 27 years, I wish he would come vist with Prada this year, maybe CASH would have been great too.

"I Promised I be good for 2 Years if you bring me this bag!"

COUNTDOWN TO FRIDAY.

It's 2 mins to Midnight 28 November.... and its Irene's 28th Birthday!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU IRENE!!!

Yeah... we both have been counting down to this since like 15 days back...
Hahaha... not that happy that Irene is growing older, but cause we have a date
Irene is taking day off for her birthday, and I arrange for a half day leave so we can go shopping..
But maybe window shopping for me only lah.

Its has been a long time, that i actually taken leave for shopping!! Even the thought of window shopping thrills me... hehe

Hmm, actually wanted to get a new wallet with Irene, but on 2nd thoughts, I beta not join her since my wallet is still new(unless the sale is like 60-70% off the item that i wanted :P).

Feel so guilty of spending especially during times like this.


I cant wait for tomorrow to come... and YES.. DFS sale here i come!!

*******************************************************************
This economic recession is like taking effect and i can almost feel the impact.

1) I see more Taxi inline for passengers at the Taxi Stand
2) Less people in Taxi Q
3) Shopping malls are less crowded.
(Amazingly, TM is always crowded to the brim even on weekday, but today the crowd is lesser and cashier q is shorter.)
4) Sales assistance are more willing to give free samples for skincare, which unlike in the past, shoppers would have to beg for 1.
5) MRT Trains are more crowded now
6) More on-ongoing SALE, not sure due to festive season or economic recession
7) More rumors on pay cut & retrenchment
8) More sever impact, my customers are taking longer to pay me...

Hmm, when will this end....... ??

Total: $411.45

Then since yesterday, the four of us, Me, Irene, Ling and Audrey have been crazy shopping online for skin care pdts that are being in "Nu Ren Wo Zui Da". Eyes spoilt again, we aimed so many items but having to purchase with discreetion the rest will have to wait next round.


I have order the following:
1) Shills Whitening Mud Mask - NT 275
2) Shills Foam Este Pack - NT 202
3) Anosa Nipple Cream - NT 199

Total - NT 676 = S$48

Damn sianz, because of all these, Im too guilty to get the RM's Bag, guess I have to wait for the next sale.

Tomorrow, Im still meeting the gals for BB cream shopping lor.


This morning, I still took taxi somemore -$19 bucks, Crap when im complaining IM BROKE!
***********************************************************
Talking about Taxi, finally they have remove the $0.30 fuel surcharge, Crappy... shortly after the surcharge was imposed.
Fuel price have drop.. yet the charges remain untill now. Cuz of recession lah, so reduce $0.30 cents lah.
Please lor... when will the rest of the charges like erp, peak hr surcharges be removed?!

And also.. PUB bills increased somemore.. like extra 50 bucks, that is $600 a yr man!


What kind of logic is that, economy bloom, everything also increase price, but when recession all the relevant authority ACT BLUR huh?!

Hmm.. I better calm myself down before the blahhing starts and i get sue for scolding PAP!
**************************************************************
Anyway, back to the items I have bought.. I will try out and review it again when Im free.

So far 1st test with Kiehl hair mask, effects is quite good.. I dont even need to comb my hair as its tangle-free and super soft.

The best of it, only need to put on for 5 mins and then wash off.
So its like hassle free.

TV Commercial #12

Pepsi.. Seen Sumo played soccer before?
Its my 1st.. amazing

我的家庭

Came across this article online.
Supposed to b
e written by a primary school.
Its really 欠扁!

作文名稱:我的家庭

我出生在一個非常貧苦的家庭,記得小時候,爸爸的生活很無聊,整天只能數錢,媽媽也是,整天都在掃錢。
我家住在深山中,每次要出去買東西,都相當麻煩,開賓士要 5 小時,開保時捷也要4 小時;雖然家裡有直昇機,但是開到那邊很難找到停機位,相當的不方便。我偶爾也會出去逛街,爸媽怕我被綁架,隨身有 20 多個保鑣保護著,大家看到我都嚇跑了,所以我從小就開始被排斥...... 因為家裡是在深山,每次到了冬天都非常冷,爸爸也說,出去買東西很麻煩,所以冬天沒有暖爐...沒有棉被...每天只能陪著爸媽燒錢取暖 ... 而睡覺的時候,也只能蓋著錢睡覺 (我覺得英鎊比較溫暖) 。

 記得小時候,有一次,因為房間太大,還來不及跑出房間,就尿褲子了。所以,爸爸在我房間放了一台小綿羊機車,好讓我能在10分鐘以內,衝出1000 坪的房間,穿越 5公里的走廊,到達800 坪的廁所 (我常常在走廊迷路 ) 。爸爸又另外叫人加蓋了20間 600坪裡面有著250 坪小廁所的破房間。爸爸說:以後如果尿濕了,直接換房間,如果房間不夠或是太小的話,再告訴爸爸,爸爸再叫人來多蓋幾間,我們的生活很辛苦,你要忍著點!!

現在想起來,爸爸真是個善良的人!!

 還記得有一次,家裡遭小偷,因為他用炸藥炸壞了我爸的保險箱,使得裡面的金幣不斷的往外滾出來,結果竟把那個小偷壓死了......我覺得那個小偷好可憐 ......金幣壓死人是很痛的!! 他不像之前那個被鈔票悶死的小偷一樣幸運。

媽媽也常常告訴我,我們家生活非常困苦~要我學著吃苦~

所以我從小養成了刻苦耐勞精神,我將來的志願,是要找 200 隻會吃錢的怪物,好把家裡的錢都吃光,為那些可憐的小偷報仇!!

Cure for Mood Swing = Work = $$

Was on Msn with Celina today, damn.. this gal always manage to distract me from work or stress. So i wasnt too unhappy today and guess my mood swings are coming to a end Finally!

Seeing that she got so busy and occupied with her selling blog, reminds me that i used to do so in the past. But recently was so stress over work that i forgotten all about it.


A good way of distracting myself from being depressed is to work and sell stuffs and earn $$.


That is..cure for mood swings. Didnt i say my hobby is working which = earning $$?? and seeing $$ makes me HAPPY!

Yeah.. so i shall start again...couldnt start today. I was given a jab for tummy cramp, doc advise to rest more.


Project for the weekend, continue my selling blog.


If you are my friend, please show SOME SUPPORT OKAY.

Self Discovery -> Part 1

Equally depressed today, try to force myself to focus on work instead but its difficult.
Lost in depression and work stress.. my morales gets lower. Dipping like wall street Index..SAD

Im lost in TRANSITION.. suddenly I wonder who am I??

I dont know anymore but I know I need to get out of this shit.

I decided to google online, try to know myself better.
I know that's rather stupid, but heck I work alone there is no one else i can talk to except Irene on MSN
My bad breath are forming cuz i haven spoken to anyone for the last 12 hours.


Then I found this Online quiz -> to test my Personality okay I guess that is 1 way of self discovery.

So let get started, its a long quiz, so after 44 questions, Im supposed to know MYSELF better.
So i expected that the results will be LONG??

I click done and POP
My results is

"YOUR GREATEST PERSONALITY TRAIT IS "CONSCIENTIOUSNESS"

WTH, thats all?? The end.. Yes

So what does that means??

Again I google for definition of conscientiousness.

From Wikipedia:
Conscientiousness
is the trait of being painstaking and careful, or the quality of acting according to the dictates of one's conscience. It includes such elements as self-discipline, carefulness, thoroughness, organization, deliberation (the tendency to think carefully before acting), and need for achievement. It is an aspect of what was traditionally called character. Conscientious individuals are generally hard working and reliable. When taken to an extreme, they may also be workaholics, perfectionists, and compulsive in their behavior. People who are low on conscientiousness are not necessarily lazy or immoral, but they tend to be more laid back, less goal oriented, and less driven by success.

So I already know Im a workaholic and my hobby is working.. and then?
Shall make it a point to know myself better from now..

Anyone here knows themselves 100% well, please teach me!

p/s: Irene, thanks for trying so hard to cheer me. I will heed your advise. Dont worry.. I'll be okay

Friendship = Bubbles=Nothing?

Felt very depressed today almost to the point of crying, not sure cause by work stress or cuz of the conversation I have with Gwen earlier on.

I'm reminded me of the past again.

What really is friendship?? Is it so fragile that it can burst like a bubbles overnight or erupted like a volcano without warnings? I thought True Friends will understand each other without words and understood each other's intention and thoughts without explanation.
Either I was wrong or we have not understand each other well enough as I've assumed.

Our friendship...a fragile and intricate relationship between Me, Gwen, Angie, Emily and Geannie.

This has a issue which I been shelving it away since the day Emily move out of my house and perhaps out of my Life. This pain will etched deeply in my heart forever, lost of a precious friend
I know I will lose her the moment that I have asked her to move... I know it will happen even though she said no hard feelings... I know it will happen when I lied to myself that she will understand 1 day... I know it will happen even when we both promised and assured no damages done.

I knew it and still I did it.................

I'm sad and pained that things have come this way after 5 years of happiness with the gals. I no longer talk to Geannie for the past 2yrs, and Emily no longer talks to me for the past 6 months. Situation have become stiff and awkward especially for Angie and Gwen, they are caught in between.

Nobody wants such endings, what really happen?

In both incident, I'm deemed as the betrayer and the selfish bitch.

Is there a misunderstanding between us or simply our friendship is too fragile?

Shall let it be...I have no idea how to explain, what to explain and lastly no wish to explain myself.

Losing Geannie, I was angry and sad hoping it will be last and final.
Losing Emily, the pain was doubled this time, I lose faith and give up hope.
I'm tired and weary especially after Angie's birthday celebration last month.
Things never really got better, it will never be the same ever again. Im certain.

Angie send me a touching "thank you" sms for attending her birthday party, rightfully in the past I would have reply a equally touching sms but now I did not.
I did not know what to reply.. till now, It has been a month since I last contacted her.

NOW
No longer looking forward to the gathering anymore.
No longer looking forward to the festive seasons where we party together and exchanges gifts
No longer looking forward to any Birthday Celebrations even mine
No longer looking forward to any Wedding Celebration even mine
No longer looking foward to anything anymore

Hope 1 day their wish will come true, Emily, Geannie, Angie and Gwen will resolve all misunderstanding and rekindle the sparks of friendship and remain as best friends like the past.. while I remain out of the circle alone this is what I feel will be the best for all....

This is my choice.

Facial - Damn Worth

Was having a bad migraine since Thursday , in fact I'm still having migraine now. But suai lah,
I already fixed appointment for facial, and since it the 1st I dont want to cancel. Especially today getting my eyebrows fixed, next 2 weeks cannot do facial... by then I think my Face will rott lor...actually now already consider Lan le.

This therapist is a homebased, and recommended by Irene. Supposed to be very nice and good, since homebased, usually wont hardsell, so wont end up getting nightmare facial experience.

Therfore I went with confidence....
Finally I reach the destination, and greet by Sabrina ( my therapist) ...
She is super slender and has damn good skin.... I cant even see her PORES at close proximity!
Damn.. No wonder she is my Therapist lah

Sabrina is super friendly and helpful, offer alot of tips for diet and skincare. Then i realise, before she was 1 with super bad skin and plague by Huge Acne problem... It took a long time and hardwork to achieve her current flawless skin. Highly motivated by her I decided not to be lazy anymore! I shall give myself 6 months time and be more discipline. With her help, I hope i can see improvements to my skin condition.

So while she was doing her work on my face, patiently explaining each steps she is doing and its purpose. Then suddenly she ask a weird question. The conversation is like this.... after the end she couldnt stop laughing at me...

Sab: Ehh, tomorrow u going anywhere?
Me: Hmm, why u wan to ask me out meh?? Im going to do my eyebrow only lah
Sab: Oh , Im checking if you have any special events, if not maybe i can do more extraction
(aka squeeze the pimple) for you?
Me: Oh, like tat ar... just go ahead lah..Already so UGLY, a few more spots wont make it worse
right? Anyway, i doubt anyone will realise the difference.
Sab: "STUNNED" Huh
Sab: Aiyooo.... why u say until like tat... so jiat liat meh? Since like tat, you dun scream ar..
I will start LOR

So she proceed.. and indeed its F painful but i endure... But so much beta than my previous Devil therapist who is obessed with extraction.

Next she did alot of other things. In short....... I have the following done all at the cost of $55 nia.. Damn cheap and worth it lor... outside anyway could have cost $200+ per session with package.

1) Cleanse my skin
2) Apply 2 time of cream to cleanse the pores.
3) then with the cream on, she turn on the steam
4) Start the extraction followed by
5) A equipment like radar detector, supposed to kill the bacteria and closed the pores
6) Another roller equipment supposed to detox my skin, i was hopping it can make my face
slimmer thou
7) Ultrasound on both my eye and face, supposed to aids blood regulation, promising to lighten
dark eye circles as well
8) This is the ultimate 1, a nuzzle that is spraying oxygen directly to my face and neck
9) followed by a mask
10) complete by toner and moisturiser.

See, all the above done for only $55, go where and find right??
I cant wait for my next facial, as this is so relaxing and make me feel so lavishy pampered by pure oxygen treatment. And at such afford price, Im so tempted to have facial twice a month, hoping that this will treat all my skin problems as well.
