28 days to go

this morning i drove my mum to the nearby market. it has been quite some time i didn't drive her to the market and yet everything stays the same. the same hawkers, the same sellers, the same materials... but there was 1 thing, which is so-very different - the way the people looked at me. i think all the people in the market, from the flowerist to the hawkers, know that i'll be getting married soon. the feeling is so weird... :p

worked half day today and surprisingly, the time passed very fast. 4 hours passed in just blinks.

went for pedicure & manicure after work. at last, i got a chance to send my nails for a luxurious treatment. i have waited so long for this...

went to telelink after that to pass the note a.k.a. invitation card to the appointed coordinator in telelink. although i took hours to complete the guest list, still left out some from the list :p

preparing my mood for tomorrow big event...

29 days to go

today i don't feel like working. so... lazy to work. after attending a training in the morning, worked a little... lunch time!! quite some time didn't have kfc for lunch, today's kfc tasted better than usual.

got to know monday will be my boss' birthday. didn't want to know this, anyway. colleagues shared little money to buy her a card and a present - know knowing what'll that be yet. i think she must be very happy getting the surprises from us. there was a great joke from one of the colleagues, it made me non-stop laughing and couln't wait to share it with other colleagues who were not there when she joked.

pat : what are we going to buy for her?
a.s. : don't know yet. anything-lah... so long there's a present.
pat : hmm...
a.s : perhaps everyone holds a candle and sing her a birthday song-lo...
pat : haa... really-meh?
a.s : wait... we have not enough people to hold candles.
silent... silent... silent...

**think** what does this mean? we looked at each other and lol~~~
**think** is she that old?
**lol**

i still laughing to myself till now. kakaka... hahaha... hohoho...

just had dinner with an ex-colleague and her bf. although so long didn't see her, she is still the old time her. still pretty, still funny. heard her complaining her working life, her colleagues, her everything in s'pore. so funny and interesting...

have bought a note card a.k.a. invitation card to invite telelinkers to the catering on 8th november as they can't make it to the wedding lunch. hmm...i need to prepare the guest list now but i'm still feeling lazy now... don't know why...

and i enjoy this feeling, so relaxing...

30 days to go

at last... i left the office @ 5.20 pm. although it was drizzling, looking at the bright sky, i smelled the fresh air. i took a deep breath, happily walking to the car park in rain. the feeling was just like a prisoner's first step out from the prison. released and relieved.

this is my first time driving in such a heavy rain. the pouring rain totally covered the whole windscreen, i couldn't see anything. so dangerous... thanks god, i arrived home safely.

once i stepped into my home sweet home, the 3 monkeys were activated. eik, today only 2 - 1 falls sick, not that active. but the 2 are enough to make me sick. after all the hi, i miss you, i love you, how are you, kisses and hugs... i settled down and again took a deep breath. this time, i smelled my home. a smell that i have long forgotten...

jarod boy told me that he is unhappy and pressured. he feels that no one cares about him. everyone seems take good care and pay all the attention on amelie girl. i finally understand his disobedience and misbehaviour all this while. all he needed is only attention.

to be frank, i don't see things that he sees. most of the time, i will just leave him alone, thinking that he'll be alright a little while later. he may then look okay and i dare not to think further about it.

i never have expected to hear this from a 9 year old boy. so emotional and deep... i think he means it this time. i'm not sure how long he has been keeping this to himself. he stimulates my emotion too and makes me think that being a parent is really not easy, especially being a mum.

mum will always be the one who comforts, understands, listens, shares and advises. i'm still not sure if i could be a good mum. this is too far, too far from me...

i'm now watching tv, reporting on kelly chen's wedding. heard from every guest saying that the ceremony was so warmth and touched. she was so beautiful in her gowns. it was really her day...

don't be silly-lah... i'm not expecting something like that. too grand, i can't cope...

pre countdown

i start packing up things today. so far, just have done a little. i realise one thing - i have many new clothes, left at a corner, with the labels still attached to them, which i bought during the last season sale, erm... last last season sale, or perhaps the last last last season sale... i really can't recall when i bought them.

i nicely pack them into big paper bags, then only realise that paper bags aren't enough. i need to look for big boxes instead.

looking at this situation, it looks more like a spring cleaning. hahaha...

just got to know that the my new room is ready. had just finished the renovation and painting. yahoo~~~ another thing got out from my list.

tomorrow will be the official countdown to 8th november 2008...

i wished i could ban this SPA

i write myself a piece of note today. here it goes...

i am now in a SPA. i don't know how this SPA could survive. no massages, no beds, no aromatheraphy treatments, nothing at all!!
in fact, there is a CEO/COO/GM who does the talkings. there are two MCs who make make the SPA even more boring, dozens pages of powerpoint slides flying around on the projector screen and hundred and one stupid games specially designed for us, 'konon'...
the name of this SPA is... cheng cheng cheng - steering prudential ahead.
**fly kite** **phew~~~**
just had a bad lunch @ the prince hotel. i had once experienced its aweful buffet some time back in 2007, right after the company's away day to dusun eco. i could only think of one reason the company chose this venue again - well, it's the nearest to the office. yucks!! yucks!! yucks!! i swear that won't come back here for whatever event it is!! erm... unless forced to : (
everyone's in red today - my most unfavourable colour. everuthing seems not right for me today. haa... except one thing! i browsed through a book about handcraft during the lunch. the items are so cute!! suddenly, i feel my interest is there. anyway and anyhow, i will need to know the cost of working out this hobby. i know myself too well. i tend to lose interest on anything in an extreme fast mode. afraid that i will waste my time and money later. 'tei ding di sin...' i find myself very much wiser now. don't u think so too?hahaha...
...30 mins passed...
blah blah blah... the CEO is still talking...
it's now the MCs' time... boring... : (
argh... oh no!! it's the GM's turn now... boring boring : (
(although there are games, he's still boring)
...10 mins passed...
we are still in the stupid games
...15 mins passed...
the GM is still talking. talking about promotions that always kill us during month ends, figures, figures and figures, targets, targets and targets. out of so many things, there is none beneficial to us, as employees.
'saai hei'...
tea break - yeah yeah yeah~~~
and...
talkings and stupid games again
and...
stupid games
and...
a rushed and bad ending wrap-up (as usual)
************************************************
the best part comes - back to office and my day begins now

conclusion : this SPA does not help me in relaxing (at all). instead it burdens me.

message to all - ladies and gentlemen, please do not go to this SPA again. kekeke :p

relaxing

today is a bit relaxing and thought of writing blog in the office. surprisingly, it has been blocked by the company's server. what the f**k?! my working life is already a miserable and tensed one. my one and the only entertainment in the office is now gone... forever... sob sob...

got to know one of my colleagues has tendered her resignation. not a surprise news. well, everyone wishes too and plans to, i guess. just the matter of time and who goes first. may my wishes always be with her.

reaching home earlier today makes me feel 'mou soh si si'. when i reached home last month end, i needed to rush things out - bathe, watched tv, dinner cum supper, almost everything. but... i don't know what to do today. bathe - already. watch tv - like too much, i feel a little tired. dinner - can't eat much also. the most only takes me 15 minutes. what else to do-leh?

thought of planning for an escape over the weekend. movie marathon? free stay @ genting? morning walk @ FRIM? karaoke? so long... no more shopping, no more talking about wedding. i think my hubby and i too need a break. think think about it. but definitely it won't be this weekend - a very important thing to do - yeah yeah... my marriage registration.

it's only 10.30 pm. what to do tonight 'lau lau cheong'? ahh... let me browse through the photos of robyn's birthday party.

buzz all day long...

woosh... my wedding is approaching... help... the nearer it is, the more voices are surrounding me - just like the 'dai bei jao'. never imagine that i'll be starting the 31-days counting down in less than 2 days.

to set a marriage registration date also got buzzed by my parents. why this date and not that date? why this hour and not that hour? why yours can be done on a weekend whereby cassey's couldn't? aiyo... how to answer so many questions at a time? in the end, i answered none. it is 12/10/2008 @ 9.00am because it is 12/10/2008 @ 9.00am-loh... the best answer ever.

went to ikea and courts yesterday to scout for a bedside table. hoo... now only i know... a suitable bedside table is real hard to find. couldn't find any, ended up only bought bunches of clothes hangers, storage compartments for the wardrobe and a table lamp.

haa... guess what?? my mum-in-law had actually bought us a pair of table lamps with the big 'hei' on the shades. can see that she likes them very very much and hopes that we like them as much as she likes them. erm... they are 'modernized' old-fashioned table lamps. i swear everyone won't be able to see these table lamps after my wedding. for sure, i'll hide them somewhere, where no one could ever find them again. can u see how much we like them? hmm... if the narnia world really exist, i wished i could throw the table lamps over. kakaka :p

don't know why i accepted to attend the food tasting session today. my parents and i attended the session with the in-law and their 'lou yao'. the session went through smoothly, i'd say - everyone got along well - yau king yau gong yau xiu... yum yum... the food tasted very good too :)

after the food tasting, we went back to the in-law's house. hmm... a happy thing to know today - the renovation started today afternoon, from the parent's room to the living hall. estimated to finish by next saturday. hopefully, everything goes well. hmm... at last... : )

have just chosen the colour for my new room - aqua white. we both feel the colour suits our room the best, although my mum-in-law strightly disagreed with us. who cares... it's our room, anyway :p

buzz buzz buzz... after a long discussion of what to buy, what to give and what to return during the 'guo dai lei' session, my parents and i decided to visit the one-stop shop in ipoh road, which sells all these things. bought all the necessary items and happy that another 'to-buy' and 'to-do' thing got stroke off from the list.

although one got stroke off, there are still many, too many 'to buy' and 'to do' things in my list - the marriage registration will be next week, shopping with mum-in-law the week after next week, collecting the items from the one-stop shop for my 'gah jong' session, arranging the delivery of my wardrobe and bed, attending facial appointments, settling with the 'gah jong' day and reaching the wedding ceremony in 30 over days.

tiring but yet exciting. this is a weird feeling, which i'm unable to describe. i don't hope for the day to come so fast but i hope it comes sooner. i don't wanna go through these wedding preparations but i wanna do them all. i don't wanna listen to so much opinions and naggings from the olds but i enjoy it sometimes. i don't wanna have the wedding lunch but i afraid i will regret it. weird-leh...?

am i a weirdo?

i miss you so much, my blog...

the last month end was so tiring and dead. it made me so busy, emotional, miserable and troubled with all sorts of negative feelings. it also made me missed my routine blog writing. i miss u so much, my baby...

so many things i wanna share with u. so many things have happened for the past week or two.

1. stayed up to 10.30pm last month end (30th september). really a tiring month end. sigh... at last it ended. a new month, a new beginning for me. i'm feeling less stress now but the feeling is piling up again : (

2. had a night out with all my buddies and hubby. after so long didn't have nightouts, i'm a totally stranger to this new environment. the music, the clubbers, everything... are all new to me. i need to go out regularly to update myself - i don't wanna be a married auntie who sits at home all the time!! oh no..... NEVER!!

3. shopping and shopping, from window shopping to shopping till i drop~~~ the feeling was so good... so nice... i've got all the goods!! so long didn't go out shopping too. buy buy buy... pay pay pay... who cares... money 'je-mah'... cheh... :pp

4. got to know that vv will be leaving earlier than planned. a week earlier. may all the good luck with u, goodbye, vv... sob sob...

5. had a good chat with jennifer leong through e-mails. got to know her more, how her everyday goes by, how her life is with the man that she deeply in love with and her lovely byn byn... never had known her so much when she was in kl. perhaps, the farer the person from us, the more we need and want to know about him/her.

6. got to know that one of my buddies will be getting married soon @ koh samui. need to plan the holiday ahead and i have already feeling excited about it. can't wait to fly there... 'orang lidi' and koh samui, wait for me ya... yahoo~~~

7. still missing ipoh very much... : )
