Hmmm. Saturday. What am I doing here? Everyone is out enjoying the night and as for me, I’m right in front of my computer now. Why is it so? Hey, my friends do ask me out but I rejected them because I wanted to get my things done this weekend else I hardly will have much time. I’m doing my laundry now. Digging out my jackets and having them all wash. At the same time, I just had my Nike shoes soak in washing powder. This is not what I had planned earlier on. I wanted to wash my shoes last weekend but ended up forgetting it. Sigh~ Hopefully, it will dry on time.

My mum has been nagging at me this entire week. She has constantly been asking me when am I going to pack my things and I kept replying “soon.” Guess she is more excited than me. Next week, will really have to start packing my stuff otherwise I might miss certain things out if I were to do it at the eleventh hour. Tomorrow, will get all my clothing iron and also to clear some of my personal stuff. =D

Yesterday, Eeyore, xiaoMuz and I went to Cineleisure for lunch. We went there for a purpose – to turn “Chicken Little” figurine. To my dismay, the machine located at the basement was not functioning and the machine located at 4th storey out of stock. After which, we made our way to The Heeren hoping to try our luck there but it turned out it was out of stock. Sob sob~ I wanted to get the figurine so badly. It was so cute.

After work, I was the gooseberry as I met up with Hui and her boyfriend. Hmmm. It wasn’t weird because the 3 of us used to go out together. Heehee. Hui gave me a My Melody handphone figurine which she turned from a machine. When she told me that she wanted to try to get other figurines, I asked her if she’s interested to go to Suntec where they had many machines other there. At the same time, I can also get my “Chicken Little”. Again, it’s another disappointment. The store did not have the “Chicken Little” machine. Sob sob. I ended up turning for My melody.

I bought a “Precious Moment” calendar from Marina Square. It is of a heart shaped and the pictures captured my heart. Hui also bought the same one as me but at a cheaper price. Wahahah. There was a midnight shopping madness at Raffles City Shopping Centre. Almost every shop have discount. It was the first time that the three of us has go to a shopping mall which opened till 12 midnight.

I felt that it was a great idea as it gives the working people more time to do their shopping. Instead of having the extended hours during festive season, they should also consider to implement it on Fridays and Saturday’s non-festive season. This is because the working people hardly have the time to shop and if it is Friday, after they knock off at 6pm, they hardly have 3 hours to shop (including their dinner time).

Just now, I went Jurong Point to get my dinner. At the same time, I shop around. I wanted to get a bottle. I saw one bottle with addition of heart-shaped stickers pasted on it and it costs $6.90. I took the bottle to the counter and as I wanted to pay for it, I saw the lady just pack it into a plastic bag. I stared at her and then asked her whether a box is provided. She replied saying that they don’t provide box for the bottles and suggested that I can use papers to wrap it. Of course I was stunned by her reply. One look at the bottle, one will know that it is a gift. And even if she wanted me to use papers to wrap and give it as a gift, it is quite risky as the bottle is fragile. What I don’t like it was she should at least use newspapers to wrap the bottle before putting it into the plastic bag as what NTUC did if you purchase any fragile items. I asked her if there are any boxes, she bent down and continued talking to her friends before standing up and replied that they really didn’t have any boxes. I was starting to be piss off and also don’t like her attitude. I ended up telling her that I will consider to get the bottle despite she had entered the item into the cash register.

Gosh! It’s been a week since I’ve last update my blog. My apology and my computer was giving me so many problems and has yet to solve it. Sob sob! Will reformat it as soon as possible and hope it doesn’t cause me so many problems again.

The entire last week, I spent my time very wisely doing my things. Hmm. It should be a secret and will only be revealing when the time arrives. I’m still working on it and have yet to complete.

Save me! I’ve been spending many sleepless nights to rush against my time thus on Friday, my body finally gave a warning. I had overslept. Why is it so? I managed to reach the office at around 8.50am but was really down on luck. The moment I was about to sit at my desk, a colleague of mine saw me and gave me a face. I wondered if he had told boss or anyone about it. Well, Eeyore comforted me. She mentioned that reaching early doesn’t mean able to produce efficient work. Sob sob. What an unlucky Friday!

Returning back to the earlier discussion on the things I’m working at, hopefully, the entire work will complete by this weekend. Bless me that whoever receiving it will like it. It took me so much effort and time to get it all done.

Oh tomorrow my colleagues will be holding a drawing lots session for the Christmas Exchange. Pray hard I get someone whom is easy to get present for and not crack my brain on what to get. Heehee. Like I mentioned, I’m too busy so trying to set aside Friday or this weekends to get the present. Really thank the Co-organizer, Eeyore for the hard work and effort put in to make this occasion a joyful one. Though I can’t join you people but do remember to take more photos.

My friends, I’m so sorry for not able to spend sufficient time. There are so many things that will be taking place in this December. I will probably catch up with you near end of December or early January.

If you are planning to date me out, please do so next year. My schedule is fully booked till the end of the year even for 31st December; I’ll be spending time with Ritz gang as it is a yearly event. Don’t ask me to put plane because I’m the organizer for it. I’m so sorry. =(

Early in the morning, Boss asked me to see him. In the meeting room, he discussed several things mostly regarding about my attitude, character, goals and achievement.

When I was asked about my goals and achievements in another 3-5years, I couldn't answer him immediately. It was quite a mess up in my plans for this moment of time. There are too many things that I wanted to achieve but it seems so impossible for me to handle everything at one go. For instance, by next July, I must get my driving license before my advance theory expires. After that, will have to enrol to the University - UniSIM which I am aiming for the degree (Honors) in Information Technology and Business.

But with the degree that I am pursuing, what do I want to work as in future? I really don't know. If I were to continue my IT line, then I will like to work as an IT programmer because of the challenges but on the other hand, it will be stressful and the chances of getting promoted will not be as high as other occupation.

If I were to move into business related, I would prefer marketing or event organizer. Again, both are of irregular house and might require me to fly as often. Perhaps I still prefer not working desk-bounded otherwise it will be hard for me to pass time. I like moving from places to places although it is tiring. Maybe will give a try for the next few years before settling down to work at a desk-bounded job. Sigh~ It is still a long way to think. =/

Think this should be my plans for the next 3 years. Should I get a car too? Hmm. That will depend whether I am able to afford the monthly installment for the car. It is so expensive to own one in Singapore. Sob sob.

Boss commented that my greatest weakness is during the interview session. I couldn't express myself well and doesn't talk much during the interview except keep smiling. He just felt that there is something in me which I don’t dare to express out. Count me lucky that he employ me otherwise I might be still hanging in the air for now. He also encourages me to work on this else in future it will be hard for bosses to employ me at first impression. Think I need to start doing more research on how to express and be more relax during interview. =/

In the afternoon, Rabbit helped me to investigate on why my PC couldn't display the wallpaper upon logging off whereas Doraemon's PC could. After some figuring, I noticed that only bitmap format wallpaper is able to be displayed after logging off the PC. With that, we worked towards it and convert the wallpaper to bitmap format and it works perfectly. Yippee! Now, my PC is able to display my wallpaper be it logging it off or not. =D But, it still puzzles me why only bitmap format is able to work.

Yawn~ My whole body is aching. I am feeling so tired and have yet to recover from my sickness. My voice is still as deep as ever and it made me feels as if I am still undergoing puberty like a male having his voice break down. Sob sob.

Yesterday, I went to SITEC, a computer fair which was held at Expo. It took me about 45 minutes to travel down. Why can’t it be held at Suntec Convention Centre like the other time COMEX was held? The location is more centralize and more convenient to travel down. It was a disappointing sight upon arriving at the exhibition hall. The design and concept of the exhibition is the same as COMEX except they had added in the ‘Electronics’ section. The offers are also the same. Despite of all these, the exhibition was still crowded. People are everywhere and at times we had to squeeze through booth to booth.

I did manage to get a screen protector for my digital camera. Yippee! Now, my camera is well protected. =)

I spent less than ½ hour to draw a rabbit. Well, it was surprising as if I were to draw a perfect art piece; I will usually take more than 45 minutes and there will also be lots of line on the drawing. But, the one I drew earlier on was near to perfect without many linings. It makes me feels so satisfy. Heehee.

Before drawing, I watched “Windstruck” movie. It was a Korean and romantic movie. It was so touching though the lead actor was accidentally killed by an undercover cop who fled from the scene. At the same time, the lead actress, who was his girlfriend and a police officer, thought that it was her who fired at him. Feeling distraught and lonely, she tried to commit suicide several times but yet to succeed. Will you end your life if you any of your loved ones leave you suddenly? In reality, it does happen. As one is undergoing such a tragedy, friends and relatives do plays an important role. They need to show care and concern towards him/her and continuously encouraging him/her to carry on with life.

In this movie, I realized that the Koreans also believed that during the 49th day of the person’s death, his/her soul will entirely leave the world. It made me learnt something new today. =D

What a boring Friday! Although the weekends have arrived but I don’t really have the mood for it. I’m still sick and worst, my voice changes due to the flu and sore throat. Bad Doraemon was laughing at me early in the morning when she heard my voice. Hmm~ I am also limited to consume food and activities. What a awful week for me! =(

Christmas is around the corner and everyone is looking forward to it. During tea break, Tigger suggested that we should start having a meeting to draw lots on whose gift one should get for during the gift exchange and at the time to set the budget for the gift. One of my colleagues will also be acting as a Santa Clause and will be moving from desk to desk to distribute sweets. It seems so fun but I will be missing it. Sob sob~

As we were engrossed in our discussion, Astro Boy suddenly dropped us a question on why are we so excited about it. Well, we replied that it was a gathering for everyone and exchanging presents spice up the fun. With this reply, he added that everyday can also be a gathering for us and why must it be Christmas that we can find the fun in it? This roused a debate among us. Perhaps of the different generation or the generation gap that made us view things at different angel. Hrmp~

Enough of the Christmas discussion. I picked up a $5 note this evening. Heehee. Actually, it was Xiao Bing who first saw the note lying near the cinema ticket box. He pointed at it and asked me to pick it up. Instantly, I replied him that he must be joking because he loves to tick me. But after staring at it for quite some time, I turned and told him that it was a real note. Since Xiao Bing was queuing up to pay for his bills, he urged me to pick it up. Yeah! I am $5 richer now but will be spending it soon.

Xiao Bing has always been so lucky. He always picks up money unlike me. Remembered the most expensive thing that we picked up together was a handphone which was lying among the grass. One will not notice it unless he/she really observe the grass while walking. However, on that very same day, he also dropped his phone on the bus while on his way home during the night. It was really not worth it because the phone he lost was more expensive than the one we picked up. Luckily his birthday was around the corner, so the Ritz Gang bought him a handphone without having to crack our brains on what to get for him. Heehee~ =)

I am pleased to announce that my Canon Ixus 50 camera is officially one week old today. Planning to get a screen protector for the screen otherwise it might have a lot of fingerprints. =D

The weather has started to change. It has been either windy or rainy for the past few days. I like such weather but my body can’t accept coldness. Poor me! Yesterday, I had been sneezing from the moment I reached home and now I am sick. Sigh~ I am down with fever, flu and sore throat. Worst! I kept on sneezing. Help me!

This afternoon, we had lunch buffet after our division meeting. The meeting almost hypnotized me. By the time the meeting ended, I was so jaded but still have to queue up to get the food. Staring at the food, the drumstick looked delicious but I had to give it a miss because my throat is a killer to me. In the end, I only ate a little bit. Just don’t have the appetite. =(

During tea break, my colleagues and I were discussing about some latest news. It was about relationship. The most recent case was the Vietnamese girl who was tricked into the marriage but was actually being made use of by this 60+ Chinese man. It was so despicable of him to think of such method just to satisfy his desire. It was so innocent for the 21 year old Vietnamese girl who wanted to break out of poverty.

Another case was about a guy who had a family but yet still keep a mistress. When the mistress who was also married decided to put an end to their relationship, this guy got 2 teenager boys to kill the mistress and to also dig out her eyes. Luckily for that lady, the 2 teenager boys were caught before they could lay a finger on her.

What has the world become to? Why love makes one hurt and even makes one do something for it? Why can’t couple just sit down and have a peaceful talk if they want to break off? Is there no other alternative but to harm the other party?

As we were discussing on this issue, poor Tigger who hasn’t been updating herself kept asking why this and that. She was like a little child asking “Why will like that?” Some questions she asked were not even reported in the news and we were dumb struck till Doraemon had to joke with her that she needed to call the reporter. Heehee. At the end of the discussion, we nicknamed Tigger as “Shi wan ge wei shen me”.

Just had my dinner. Mum made ABC (Carrots, Potatoes and Corns) soup. Finally, something which I can fill my stomach. Oh it helps me to warm my body too. Yeah! Hopefully, my health will not deteriorate otherwise might have to take medical leave tomorrow and poor Doraemon will have to cover for both Elephant who will be on annual leave and me. Praying hard not to because I can’t leave Doraemon in lurch. Must “jiang yi qi”. =)

I am $100 poorer. I went to check my account yesterday and was surprised that the CPF board has deducted my money. Initially, I was furious because I thought it should be on the 21st of every month. Later did I realize that it was the 20th of each month. Boo Hoo Hoo! In all, yesterday I seemed to lost a total of $200 through the CPF deduction and my bills. Wo Shi Qiong Gua Dan Le!

Last night, I spent the whole 2 hours drawing and coloring the tigger for Tigger’s birthday card. I brought it to work today and let Eeyore and Doreamon view it. Guess what they commented? It was quite beautifully done and it surprised Eeyore as I colored the tigger. Heehee. But to me, the colorings somehow spoilt the artwork as it was tedious adding colors and traces of some faint pencil markings can be seen in a close up view. Later, I will be adding the “Happy Birthday” wordings on it and will also take a picture of my final work so that I can keep it as memories. It is really saddening that each time I draw, I give it away. Sob Sob~ So, if you ever receive any hand made things by me, please do appreciate it. Heehee!

On my way to work, I hurried went in the train and sat down. At Chinese Garden station, I realized that I was sitting on the front side of my pink skirt. Oh my god! See, my skirt was so loose that it turned 180 degrees without me realizing it. Sob sob. At the point of time, I wanted to stand up and turn my skirt back but I did not want to invite stares at me. So I waited until I was about to alight at Raffles Place station and after doing so, I left the train as quick as a lightning. It was so embarrassing and I wondered how many people on the train noticed it. =(

I am addicted in listening Jay Chou’s latest album “November Chopin”. I have been listening to this album almost everyday be it at home or at work. I love all the songs especially ‘Feng’, ‘Ye Qu’, ‘Hei Se Mao Yi’ and ‘Shan Hu Hai’. If you ever think of what to get for me this Christmas, do not hesitate to get me “November Chopin” album although I had the mp3 songs already. I want to collect the album. Quick what are you waiting for? Get me one now. Heehee~
