To Russia With Love

Under so much pressure to send this package out le... Haha... Just kidding.

It is a few DVDs for Lynnwei at Russia. And since it is so far away, got to pack the dvds so that it will arrive safely and so.... The packing begins...

Erm...I basically DIY the packaging myself...And... that white piece of paper with thick black writing is the address. I wrote it on a Boulevard receipt with a black marker pen 'cause I couldnt find any pen or paper when I wanted to write down the address last night. :P

As you can see from the picture above, the cardboard is actually supporting the dvds so that the pressure will be shared... Thin as a waffle... Err.. Hehe..

Then finally it is placed in an envelope and sealed up to ensure that the envelope will not ripped open on its journey to Russia...
Anticipation to Lynnwei lo... :P Sent it out lo...

p/s: Will be writing a really crazy blog post soon... Maybe tomorrow night.. :P

ToHoShinKi

Five In The Black, latest released album in Japan

Haha... Lynnwei, this post seems to be dedicated to you le 'cause of your love for ToHoShinKi.

Erm.. From yesterday, TVSQ has turned into ToHoShinKi in my mind... 'Cause I found that I can find more stuff on them using this name ToHoShinki than TVSQ. :P

Anyways, before exam, I suddenly had the urge to search for their videos and stumbled upon a number of videos of their live performances.

Then.... after exam, I went on searching for some more... So, right now, I have downloaded about thirty to forty videos (short and long) of their live performances, tv appearances, radio talk show and music videos... Apart from that, I have also downloaded three singles and two albums from them as well...

Aiya... I am getting too old for this la... Aduhai...

Err... Hehehe... This is possibly because I ran out of dramas I want to download...so this become my victim :P

It is finally over!!

As usual, Laura and I had our lunch at Miri Taiwanese Restaurant. Apparently, each time we have CPA exam together, we will have our lunch there.

Then, we went to the examination location.

As I sat in the examination room, waiting for the exam to start, I felt the sense of helplessness inside of me. I suddenly wish that I dont have to sit for any exams. But I was there. There is nothing I can do but to go through with it.

After the exam, went to shop for items for steamboat at Boulevard. Only then, the sense of relief came over me. Exam is over and now it is time to focus on my side-earnings....

Aza aza fighting!!

Tomorrow is exam day.. Gasp!

Went to have Pizza Hut's pizzas for lunch the other day. The pizzas may look kind of 'regular-sized' but it is actually 'personal' size only.

Last Saturday was Abelle's bday. Below are the array of food available on that night. Oh gosh... I can still remember how stretched my stomach felt after devouring the food...
Yesterday, ate chicken rice and drink pork stomach and chicken feet with black pepper soup. Hehe...
Eating chicken rice reminds me of a Singaporean drama series. How they accidentally discover how to cook delicious steamed chicken... Hehe...

p/s: Stuff buying and posting of stuff will resumed after exam and post-exam celebration. :P

I am feeling very Anna-Nicole-Smith

"Here's the thing. I didnt eat. I am trying to diet but I cant find the right pill. The granola bar is not working for me. I am frustrated. I am feeling very Anna-Nicole-Smith right now. God bless her lovely soul because she likes pink and I like pink too."

-Kimora Lee Simmons, Life on the Fab Lane-

I am feeling so sucky right now. Very very sien. Studying for today is less than one page. Argh...! Need to study the case so that i can summarise and analyse properly before discussing it with Laura for our exam.

Frizzy hair

My hair sucks...

Woke up late this morning. Ignored the alarm clock and continued to sleep. Bad decision. Now, I feel like there isnt enough energy. Unable to concentrate. Disorientation...

Distract... Distraction....

Time of the year again... Twice a year have to do this... This time, it is CPA 113 Business Strategy & Leadership... And, as usual, i am bored la... Distraction is what I need....Hehee
Got a hair cut yesterday while waiting for the car tint to be done. Err.. change the front window tint because the old one is ruined already. I will show the pic of the new look of the car when I take a pic of it.... Haiya... My hair cut is terrible la.. The style is like out of proportion or something... Or is it because I simply has a very thick hair so... Sigh... When I tied my hair up, it looked like one short stub and then one bunch of long hair... HHHAAAAAiiiizzzzz.............

As you can see, I can look like I have (not very) long hair or shoulder-length hair depending how I adjust my hair....

Err... Gula-gula... Hello Kitty's mixed drops I bought at Singapore. At this Japanese goods store at Clarke Quay... The cap is super hard to open so I am not that tempted to eat it. Too lazy to open the cap... hehee... I like the packaging nia...

Distraction~~ Distraction~~

Btw, I lost like 1.5 kg after I come back from Brunei... Dont know whether it is water loss though... Wait! Should be water loss la..

Can write Chinese o~~~

Hehe... Forgot to mention this one. Lynnwei once told me that we can configure the pc to be able to write chinese character... Then, my office pc... it was configured to write Chinese character as well but I didnt learn how to do it.

The other day, I decided to try to do it myself to find out how to do it...

Hehee.....

我可以写华语了

哈哈

So proud of myself... Hehe...

P/S: Cut my hair today...

Missing in action

I wrote most of the things offline...So here we go...


Friday


Went to office to open the door. I was a little later than the day before. Slept on the sofa and woke up at 4am to go to my bed to continue sleeping. Which caused me the laziness to wake up at 7am. After fooling around, erm..ok, make that helping out people ‘cause I really did, I finally went home. About 45 minutes later, I was out again. For lunch. A girl need to eat, ok? The plan to see if the Ten Mile Fragrant has opened its branch at Centrepoint Phase 2, if it is, the geng will drive themselves over to eat and if it is not opened, I will drive the geng to the Krokop’s Ten Mile Fragrant. Errmm… It is not opened (asked the lady boss when I went to pay and she told me that it will be opened in November). The traffic jam caused me to arrive at the office to see everyone was already waiting for me. Oh well… After lunch, I wanted to go home but didn’t ‘cause Dad called and I had to fetch him instead. Dad told me that he will be going back to Brunei at around 3 something pm. Since I promised Mum that I will accompany her to the palace for the Hari Raya open day, I will need to go to Brunei. I was so torn up inside. Honestly, I really don’t want to go back so early since the promise to go to Palace is on Monday. Went back anyways…

Car is not really in a tiptop condition. Had to stop halfway in the journey home.

Can you see the steam coming out of the car?

Saturday



Woke up at around 10am. Breakfast at a place called 四海亭 . I am not sure if I have the 亭correct or not. Anyways, I had the duck noodle, mum has the fried kueytiaw with seafood while dad and yuanz had the special noodle with duck. Yummy… After a little shopping, we went home. Yuanz and Dad go to Miri leaving Mum and I at Brunei. I didn’t do any studying in the afternoon due to many many reasons but nothing can compared to that one reason: Laziness. I have been playing Zuma the whole afternoon. Hehee….



Dinner time!!



Went to Excapade with Mum and sat on the bar table facing the sushi train. The place is pretty packed when we arrived and I believe that if we insisted on sitting on a table, we will be waiting awfully long because one, the place is pretty packed and two, we don’t have a reservation. The two of us had six plates and were full. Two of the plates are seaweed which I find really nice. I love it.


Studying start on page 5.14
Studying ends on page 5.15. I fell asleep la… Hehe…


Sunday

Err.... No studying at all... Playing Zuma... Hehe... Dont scold me la...

Monday

Promise to accompany Mum to Palace... And so I did. We followed the Hokkien Association to enter the Palace. Apparently we are supposed to get thru all the normal queuing up and can finish this visiting very fast. But... somehow, due to lack of arrangement, quite a number of ladies were left behind and stuck in the normal queue including Mum and I. Err... We were 'rescued' after that and then get thru the queue a bit faster. I hate the kids in the queue and ladies' queue usually has a lot of kids. Annoying kids. I feel so much like slapping those kids. Screaming and pushing and pulling things around. Omigosh....

Err... Selamat Hari Raya btw....

P/S: Office got broken in again. Aiya...

Back from Brunei

Just arrived from Brunei a few hours ago. Currently onlining in my room with my laptop on the top of the ironing board and me on my bed. Just checked out the blogs I usually visit while lying on the bed. So uncomfy that I am getting dizzy and body ache. Errmmm... Will post a more updated update tomorrow... Bah

Annual Office BBQ 2007

For the past two years since I joined the company, we had BBQ each year so it sort of become an annual event. Must have it. Hehe....

Erm... The preparation is done at my place this year. Marinating the chicken wings and sausages the night before and then the second night which is also the night before the BBQ, the marinating of lamb chops and pork... preparation of bottles of lemon tea... preparation of sticks of fishballs, beefballs, salmon balls, crab sticks, and cocktail sausages... Preparation of tuna and egg sandwich... I think the fridge racks are kind of bent because of the weight of the food stack on it.
Laura, Joanna and I slept in the living room that night. Aaron came to pick us early Saturday morning. After loading everything in his car, we went to our BBQ site, Taman Selera. After so much delays, Aaron got the fire started... The wind is so strong that it keep on putting off the matches or the fire starters we got burning.
People starting to arrive as we started our BBQ with lamb chops and pork chops. Erm... paise to say that the pork chop that I marinated didnt have much flavouring at its fat parts. Too bad.
We wrapped up the BBQ at around 12 something. That night, I had dinner at Golden Restaurant with Laura, Kelvin and Laura's family for this association's senior appreciation dinner. Thanks to Laura's parents for inviting me. Hehe... free dinner :P There is actually this really old... i cant remember correctly.. but i think she is something like 102 years old lady. Ohmigosh...YB Boss is back from his trip to UK and we are treated with this delicious chocos... Erm... I am just putting this in for fun la...

Studying ends at page 4.24 and it is 12.34am... I am actually feeling super sleepy... but this blog post must be done... Arrghh...

How we do our BBQ

Our super cool cups... Haha...

Oh~~!! I am so hungry la

Day 3: To 5th CPA paper exam

Had a really restless sleep. Dreamt about all sort of weird weird things including opening office door and trying to solve a crossword puzzle. Woke up feeling tired. Too much brain activity.

Anyways... I was early to the office to open the door. Erm... Didnt go find breakfast first because I dont know what to eat. Instead, I had a cup of oatmeal at the office.

Went out to shop with mum yesterday. So didnt study much yesterday afternoon. Weather too warm also... I am getting very distracted also. Hmm... Lazy to study la...

Studying starts at page 3.14.... Despite reaching module 3, it isnt much because one module is only around 30 plus pages...

Day 2: To 5th CPA paper exam

Woke up way earlier than my alarm clock. Darn it...

Went to office to get office keys 'cause I will be opening office door for the next few days and the day after Hari Raya holiday. Thanks to the new alarm system and the order of not letting too many people know the password. Bleh...

Anyways... it is good also 'cause it will force me to wake up early and not taking my sweet time sleeping till noon...

Paid for my car's road tax and insurance just now. Honestly, not much money left and it is just beginning of the month.

Studying starts at page 2.20... Paise, only study half a page yesterday. So paise... Today will try to make some substantial progress.

Ever wonder why am I writing such a boring update now? Simply because I want to boost the number of posts I write in one year. Compared to last year, I have written so much less... Need ot write more... Hehehe...

Day 1: To 5th CPA paper exam

Woke up at 11am. Shit lor...

Went out for lunch at Miri Taiwan Restaurant and then to pay insurance premium at Asialife. Vomit blood...

Discovered that my Plant Tycoon's game has gone dead aka game over. I think it is because I didnt stop the time for the game. Sad...

Officially on leave

Each year I will have a lot of OT leave that I need to clear at the end of the year. This year is no difference. Right now, I have taken about three weeks of leave from office to study for my fifth CPA paper.

Had a BBQ at Taman Selera on Saturday. Will post some pics soon.

Right now feeling a bit dizzy because I slept too much... From 11pm to 1.30pm... Must try to wake up early everyday to have a good day, otherwise, will feel dizzy and lazy... :P

Hiatus.. dont think so

I am thinking to go into hiatus but part of me refuse to do so. I dont know what to write these days. I have been thinking too much, feeling too much.

Been feeling a bit depressed... stressed out... emotional...

Money cant buy happiness but no money can also cause unhappiness. Money is such a sensitive issue. To be indirectly in charge of the home finances, I feel so pressured and ... under-budgetted. My envy to those people who has their elders to care of all the financial problems. My respect to those who can manage under tight budget.

Exam is drawing close and I havent really get much studying going on. I fear that I will not do well this time. Hopefully three weeks of no work will help me to study... Hopefully

The feeling of being misunderstood is draining my energy. I even gotten to the phase where I shake uncontrollably of frustration. My inability of communicating effectively? My taking-everything-people-say-seriously attitude? Darn..and he didnt know he hurt my feelings. Hmm... tears threathening to fall from the memory of what has happened

Tear-jerking Sunday as I watched One Litre of Tears. Should be a story that encourages people to live on but somehow, I still feel like dying. To feel the release that the heroine has when she passed away. If I have to go through what the heroine went through, I am not sure what will I do to pass the time while waiting for the time to die to arrive. Dont think I will have her strength to live on despite of all the complications from her disease. Dont think I will have anything that people will remember me by. The heroine has a whole loads of phrases and poems that encourages people to live on. How depressing for me!

Despise office politics.... Despise the deterioration of human relationship... I am too lazy to elaborate on this. Too f***ing sien to talk about.

Love and hate relationship with the car. The screeching of tyre when I brake. The warm air from the aircond under a hot afternoon and an extremely cold airflow when it is all windy and cool outside. The memories of the car with Grandpa and Grandma. Tears forming again.

I wonder if this is what happen when you live alone in a big house and there is no one who can share the burden. Sometimes I can go on the whole day without even saying a word.. because there is no one to talk to.


Worry no more... I am recovering. In a way... Trying not to think too much. Trying to laugh it all away. Looking forward to the BBQ this weekend.

But if really want to give me a helping hand. $$ for me will be great. Haha... oh! and a boyfriend, please... :P

Ok... I should get back to studying. Finally get some of the frustration out in the blog.
