Andy Lau Wonderful World Tour 2008

13.12.2008 is the best day I have ever had. To see someone whom I love and admire and respect so much is just speechless. Wah. The concert was awesome. I could only fix my eyes at him and nobody else and didn't care about any other things happening around me. It was like a dream come true for me.

I am still speechless and probably suffering in post Andy Lau's concert blues. Wished I could fly to Hong Kong with him. Aii... next time, next time. :D

Pai Ka for 2 days but I feel the love.

On my way to the MRT station yesterday, I had a sprain. I had a rude shock when it happened because everything seemed so normal. Walk walk walk, suddenly, my right ankle was already parallel on the soil. I don't even have the slightest idea how that happened.

I stood back on my feet and tried walking and struggled to the MRT station. Seven stations later, I couldn't take the pain and figured that I wouldn't be able to walk to the office; I made an exit and took a cab back home to see the sinseh later.

Had my swollen ankle wrapped up like a pig's trotter. Couldn't walk properly yesterday and it was damn painful. This morning woke up, ankle looked suspiciously ok but it was still swollen and painful. Didn't dare to set my feet on the ground, fearing for the pain. Sigh.

I wonder what I have done to deserve sprains like that. Grrr. I seriously could swear that going to office and running up and down is 100 times better than being immobilised at home.

At least, I felt the love this morning when the boy offered to buy breakfast for me. Aww... despite him having to go to the office he still made time for breakfast together. Hee. Sweet surprise, thank you, love.

I cannot wait for Christmas to come. I really feel like gorging myself silly and indulge in the gifts. ;P

Bitchy Little Girl.

Hello again, I am back after 3+ months. Been lazy and boring (for the lack of a better word). Never really had the urge to log in and update my blog. Nobody really reads anyway (or so I think).

Work has been... I shall keep it as that. I am sure those who know me or those whom I've been keeping in contact with, would know that I'm turning into a real bitch eventually. Bitch about clients, work, people, etc. Ok, so I admit I'm a bitch. Who isn't?? Everyone is a little at the bottom of their heart. I am just bringing that character upfront.

Work's not been exactly smooth of late. Shit keeps falling on me and I keep having to sweep them under the wraps. Blurgh. It was funny when my interactive designer drew a couple of pictures of shit falling. And I kept rejecting her drawings because I either didn't feel that was descriptive of my emotions or, I didn't feel it was pretty. Feels like I'm a client.

Love life - it has its ups and downs. One after another. It hasn't been easy but there were many many fun times. Some were heart-wrenching. But let's only remember the happy moments. Learn from the mistakes and sad moments and move on. It wasn't till yesterday night that I could pour out what I have been bottling up for the longest time. It felt so much better after the showdown (again, for the lack of better word). It also wasn't till yesterday night that I realized my decision has always been right about you. You have showed all love, care, patience and other virtues that supports my decision.

Family wise - all's been good. I will not so-call 'wash the dirty linen in public' as I have more grace than someone. Anyway, having him as part of the family is such a disgrace and a waste of resource on this planet. Then again, I no longer regard him part of us. So fuck away. Daddy and mummy seemed to have aged a lot. Not sure it's natural but one day, back home, I realized that they have aged and more lines are showing. Fatigue lines otherwise known as wrinkles. As a daughter, I couldn't do what I could have done to stop their worries or relieve their burden. For so many years, I have not seen such a disappointing look from Daddy. In fact, never. Not even when I flunked my test (WTH!?!?!?!) but the look on his face when I rejected his request was priceless and hurtful. It's not easy being a good daughter. I must also be a good sister, a good friend to my siblings. It hasn't changed much on the fact that I am quite authoritative at home.

Personal development has been a little stagnant of late, I feel. Wondering if I should go take up salsa or go gym or learn something. Cost has been an issue (all the while) so I'd look at the feasibility of each option before setting my mind on it. I'm quite interested in signing up for gym. Neighbourhood gym, that is. Don't tell me about the benefits of professional gym (like Fitness First or California Fitness) unless you are willing to pay for my membership fee.

Ok, I've been ranting on for quite some time now. It's time to settle for the evening and get down to my personal filing work. Damn, I hate these!!

Thank You.

Thank you, my dear for the lovely thought and celebration on last Saturday. Singapore Flyer was a failure but I promise to make up to you. So sorry for being such a spoiler. Thanks for the surprise present too. Hee!

Thank you, teammates for the surprise birthday party last Friday evening. It was a good one and I was really touched.

Chicken wings at Que Pa Sa is really good! Hahaha.

Need to wake up at 6+ tomorrow morning. So, till next time.

Sweet Boyfriend of Mine.

It's been a long long time since I last blogged. Been lazy, tired, lazy, busy, lazy, lazy. Ok, so I AM lazy. I admit it.

About a week ago, I was gushing how sweet my colleague's boyfriend was - personally sending her a bouquet of flowers and chocolates just because she is feeling a little under the weather due to her bad ankle. Personally delivered the bouquet and chocs to her in office! How thoughtful. Such sweet gesture.

And so, I told my boyfriend. His response? "Oh." At times, when I'd complain I don't get flowers (anymore), his response? "I bought you flowers before what. Twice some more." Oh yes, twice in 19 months being together. Sure... Otherwise, his response would be "I got you flowers before. If I were to give you flowers again, it's not creative. *grin*" Sure...

Anyhoo, this post is not about hammering him. Hahaha. Thought it was sweet of him to get me salt, last Wednesday evening. After he saw me home, (after we forgot to buy salt to nurse my itchy throat, despite us hanging around NTUC); he went to the grocery store downstairs and popped back at my doorstep with a packet of salt. Aww... that was nice. It was better than flowers, anytime. Hee. Felt so loved.

Yesterday went shopping and he wanted to buy me a tee, my favourite box of strawberries and today he offered to get me a new fan. All of which, I refused lar coz they were unnecessary.

Talking about the fan. Can't get anymore unlucky with fans, I tell you. The not-exactly-very-cheap Akira fan that I bought (to replace the landlady's old fan) broke into two! Damn it!!

Now, I have to carry the living room fan to and fro, depending on where I want to be. :S He nicely offered to get one for me. Aww..I feel so loved. Haha!!

Yes, you always love me, I know. Hahahaha.

Ok, I'd better log out of this space before anyone starts scolding me for lacing this post with too much sugar. :P

Dates.

Last Friday, we went on a date. :) Gulped the beer too fast, ended up feeling queasy in the stomach and we had to stop one station before home to go to the bathroom. While walking to the toilet, the queasy feeling disappeared. I was once sober and well again. Haha. Quite comical. Ok, I give my word that I will not drink outside home next time. Ok?

He dated me again for next Monday, 9th June. Ahh, how sweet. :) Felt like we haven't gone for date(s) for some time. The weekends spent going out shopping in town is somehow different from having a romantic dinner, especially at a place that we both have memories at.

Ahh, ok. I shall stop lest some of you said I am bragging of my happiness and joy.

Alright, I shall stop here and take a look at my tubs of bleached clothes. Sighs, long story.

What The...

...heck/ hell/ fcuk/ shit. Choose a verb.

Was doing the laundry and soaked them. Turned out therein lies aunt sp's new BLACK dress. All our other clothes are ruined. Poor chris, even her innocent shirts and shorts were ruined. Had to bleach them to get the colour out. Hopefully they work. -_-

Was given the sudden news at work earlier. Shocked me. I was thinking perhaps I'd game over first and not her. Oh well, should have guessed something (not) right would be coming up.

So, it's me and me for now. Hang on!!

Went to Hawpar Villa yesterday and it brought back many memories of my childhood. I recalled what I wore, which beige blouse with a Japanese doll embroidery; which matching green skirt. Classic, eh?

This GSS, I want to shop for 2 pairs of black heels. One for daily wear to office, another to dinner(s). Not that I have a lot of dinners to go to but it's always good to have a pair. So you don't scramble to look for one when you need them.

I am so tempted to make purchase(s) online. I shall restrain myself and stop at one. Only one. No more than that. I've done enough damage to my bank account for these few months. Afterall, blew everything on Melbourne trip.

Now that there's no more Bangkok trip, it will probably be an ease to my account.

Come July, should we go Batam or Sentosa? :) Awaiting your surprise.

Time flies too fast. One blink and we're into another month. 9th of the month is not too far away. :)

I Felt Like It.

Suddenly, felt like blogging. Once a day to once a week to once a month. Slowly, I was reducing my frequency. Hmm no, I am not going to let people tell me that I've only "5-minute-interest" (direct Chinese translation).

Something will surely happen on the 9th every month. Sounds negative, I know but it happens. THe 9th that just passed did not make a lucky escape. Let's not remember the bad things that happened but store the good things in our memory and never delete them. :)

I hope the bi-annual high tea with cut6 will happen soon. I hope our August plan will happen soon too. *winks*

Time Flies.

It's been a month since we came back from our holiday. An upcoming one is in progress. :)

It's been 17 months since we got together. What a feat, despite all the ugly moments and trying times.

Happy 17th month anniversary!! And, thank you very much for the little present. Though it may not be an expensive or a "big" item, it means a lot to me and you know it. :)

Thank you for the lovely surprise. Really. I love the gift very much.

Some of you might be wondering what is this gift. Well, it's a Doraemon handphone keychain. Yay! Suits my new SE W910i. ;) Hehe. New phone, new keychain.

Alright, it's one of those days that I don't have to work after office hours. I'd better treasure it and get to sleep early.

Goodnight, all.

The Day We Touched Down.

It was absolute reluctance that we returned to the lil' island. I didn't mind missing the flight for that matter.

Nine days seemed too short for our long awaited holidays. It should have been 2 weeks. Next pit stop - (hopefully) New Zealand. Ooo. Research begins in the next few months for expenses. Damn, I should try making friends in NZ so to save on accommodation. :P

This trip left me high and dry. Really. But, why do I slog so hard to get that little bit of monies and wait for it to grow tremendously in the bank? Might as well do some good by contributing to the countries' economies and do justice to myself. Yes.

I am still in the shocked mood for God-knows-what reason. It should be 11.14pm in Melbourne already and usually by this time, we would have been covered in layers and in bed. The next day is another early day to set off. (Secret: I was never on time. I tend to oversleep horrendously.)

He's at a concert whilst she's just stoning, not knowing what to do; though there are lots of things waiting for her to do. For example, unpack. Ah well. Will do some light unpacking, then sleep.

To sum it up: Victoria Market is still as wonderful as it had been. Great Ocean Road was gorgeous. The city was beautiful with Sih Hui and Yih Hui's companies. Maling Street was as quaint and dainty as ever. Lavender Farm was aromatic, of course. Yarra Valley was full of adventure after downing a glass of white during lunch.

More details in my next post, if I am not being lazy. Pictures - will the camera owner load the pics soon?? Haha. We're hoping to go back again in 2 years' time, when and if auntie BH moves to the countryside. I'm looking forward to it and loving every moment planning for it. Hmm.

Finally, Melbourne.

Terminal 3 was fantastic. The flight was not too superb, full of turbulence throughout the night. :S

Melbourne is now cool, not cold though there are some nights they were really cold. 2nd day - went to Lavender Farm and bought over $70 worth of lavender goodies. No lavender-scented lingerie though. Disappointed. Hehe. Went to Dandenongs for a quick spin and had Korma Chicken pie from Pie In The Sky. Obvious from the name, it's famous for pies and some had gold medals. Yumm.

We just got back from the Camberwell flea market. Bagged quite some stuffs, including 2 russian dolls and a necklace. Spent about $100 here. I got my second bouquet of tulips here. Lovely. Thanks, dear. :)

Going to city later to meet a couple of friends. Probably will go to Victoria Market tomorrow. Sunny Ridge Strawberry Farm, Phillip Island, Great Ocean Road and Yarra Valley Winery are a must. Since I paid so much for this trip, I might as well make it worthwhile. Haha.

Next update, soon!

It'e Been A While...

...since I last updated my blog. Been busy and really lazy to update. :P

There's been a lot of changes to the job, to myself and my life. Most of them are good, I think.

Work wise - change for the better. More visible account but it means more hours and effort and energy are needed. Oh well, will see how it goes. Recession is setting in soon so I should be satisfied with what I have, perhaps?

On a personal note, we cannot wait for 27th March. We hope time stops for the next 9 days. :)) Melbourne, here we come! YAY! Finally, a wish fulfilled! :)) Our next target: Club Med Phuket/ Pulau Redang.

Met up with cut6 yesterday night. Enjoyed grilling princess ma nee and her "bear". Ehem ehem. Everyone seems to be setting out to do their own things but there are some things that have not been forgotten. Memories, laughters and actions shared will never be deleted from our memories.

Too much durian last weekend back home must have set off the fever, hence the MC today. You must be laughing (again!) at me again for eating so much durians that I had to apply ointment. Hmmph! Bleh!

My First Gala Premiere...

...and I saw Stephen Chow. Wow! I watched his shows since I was young and was always triggered by his humour. Was walkin to the bus stop and passed by Orchard Cineleisure. Saw the setup and a small crowd and poster and we realized it's the gala premiere of CJ7 and he's be at the red carpet. WOO~!

Braved the rain and stood around and got chased away (coz they had to block off a certain area. FYI, i was standing just next to red carpet which I could have caught a clear view of the stars). In the end, went to the area next to the stage but after some time, decided couldn't even get a glimpse of the stars. Walked to the start of the red carpet and managed to secure a good place.

Stephen Chow then walked down the red carpet with his 2 other co-stars. He has really aged a lot!! The unfortunate thing is that our shopping bag burst and the cookies we bought dropped. -Sianz- Spoilt the mood for a while.

The good that came out of today is that I've seen Stephen Chow! Woooh!!

The bad is that I realize that "sorry" is the hardest word. -Shattered-

090108.

Someone dear said something sweet that surprised the unexpected and forgetful me very much. How nice to start off today when I had a nasty start to the year.

Nice! Thanks, dear. I'll remember. I promised to be good, I'm better, ain't I? :P

Post #1...

... of 2008 comes after 8 days. Today is also the day I've hit the 3rd month. The appraisal form is goddamn long-winded but it's good as it'll set me thinking forward.

It hasn't been exactly a smooth start for the past 8 days. Been to the doc 2 times in 4 days. First for (STUPID) insect bite which resulted in swollen ankle. What stupid insect bite could result in swollen ankle that barred me from shopping on last Saturday?

And, chest pain this morning resulted in acid reflux. Googled it earlier and found the illness to be depressing as it tends to be lifelong. URGH!!

It might be a curst after working with ****. Anyway, it's just a random thought. Not sure if it's true. Hee.

Ok, time to rest.
