happy toot-toot birthday to myself! =)
its been such a great birthday! other than my 19th bday, this is the best bday i ever had!
had my first celebration with childhood friends! we went to Illuma's Jap restaurant and apparently it din turn out to be a pleasant experience. nonetheless thanks ping for suggesting the place! bcuz i know it used to be good too.. i love their ramen there but somehow this time its not as good.. and pei for coming! though she has to rush off for her dance practice and skipped dessert =( hahaa of cuz and xian for remembering to buy a log cake to replace the one which i have misplaced last yr! hehe~ they got me a set of miniature Anna Sui perfume! dun worry lahz, im happy with ALL Anna Sui's products!
our TBLJ chalet turned into my bday celebration chalet hahaa~ so pai sehh! its suppose to be a company gathering that ended as my bday party.
we illegally had steamboat in the room on Thursday night! there were 13 of us squeezing in the limited space that we had and enjoying our probably the last 团圆饭 dinner together as colleagues. all the +1 (bf/hubby) were there too! nearly burn down the whole place bcuz of hantu & her lousy hp charger. after dinner was k box session! we got an extra BIG room!! birthday month privilege hehe~ got a complimentary cake too! in name it was for sukh's bday in memory of her =x wahaha~ so i blow the candle & cut the cake for her. happy birthday sukh mummy! hahaa
Friday afternoon, ETB drove hantu, me, joey & of cuz Elaine to Giant to buy the food for the BBQ but actually the main purpose is to get durians!!! still very amused by Pong Di's expression when hantu, joey, ivy and me were all drolling at the durians and he, who hate durians with his life, stood on the trolley far from the durians, point at us and ask us to move away from the durians section. wahaha~
so just as we were setting up the fire and preparing the food, it started to drizzle quite heavily.. jessica is so pissed with the other chalet who came so well-prepared they actually set up a shelter and cont BBQ-ing! she kana stripped off her BBQ queen title bcuz she actually dun know the existence of such a shelter. poor girl. but luckily it subsided in awhile and we are back to business!!
those TBLJ boys were suppose to come earlier to help with the food. ended up they only came after we finished out first round of food. but they were so sweet! they actually made me a board and started singing birthday song at the porch area. hehe! din expect them to do something like that given that these boy 'love face' one. thank you boys!!
after awhile, elaine came back with a big birthday cake! our cutie pie birthday just past last wk, and its also darren's bday on the 29th.. so we celebrated tgt! cheers to the saggitarius!! i've got pooh and ANOTHER Anna Sui!!! lalalala~ love birthdays~
and when i reached home after the BBQ, i got another surprise! sitting in my room was the purple Winnie the Pooh luggage! needless to say, sure is from shiru & simin~ wahaha, thank you girls so so so much! told u all dun spend so much money le, i'll be just as happy to have just the pooh oven gloves!! and sorry that u all have to celebrate my bday as belated... i bet it will still be as enjoyable as ever! rain rain go away~~
i've got such a pooh-y and Anna Sui-y 22nd birthday =)
the only person who got me something different is my piggy!
piggy brought me all the way to Holland V for their Crystal Jade steamboat! zhong dian is not the steamboat bcuz we already had it on Thursday.. that place actually offers FREE-FLOW xiao long bao!! its really heavenly~ we ate 5 baskets of the xiao long bao and condemn the szechuan suan la soup! ate and ate and ate until i almost cant walk.. after the dinner had a walk in Holland V.. it feels like strolling in BKK.. the other part of sg is really different~ while waiting for piggy's shirt to come, we make space for some ice cream!
rum & raisin + chocolate + blueberries = pure bliss!
after the man utd match ended he finally showed me the prezzie. this ben dan went to buy me a Sony camera when he strongly oppose to me buying Sony the other time.. LOL~ and he got me a newer version of the one i wanted. ben dan! told u i dun need such a good camera.. but i really love it! and even though he always niam me to stop buying pink stuff bcuz i've already grown up, he still got a pink cam.. hehehe~ love my piggy!! thanks! muackz!
and so, thats how i spent my toot-toot birthday~ really thank everyone for their wishes and prezzies and efforts =) sometimes i really think i dun deserve all these.. im just a blur sotong who most of the time dun know what is going on bcuz the time is all spend on making mistakes, apologising and throwing temper.. yet im always so lucky to have a nice bunch of pple around me who can tolerate all these=)
thank you everyone =)

lovely Friday night out with the girls!
just a simple dinner and usual 38-ing session and its seems just like the past.. but things are different now.. u know what i mean. i dun feel like elaborating.
anyway, feeling so happy for Simin that she has found a new target in life. u can do it! ganbatte ne!
and so amused that ru has already prepared everything to wear and bring for wedding dinner and is now waiting for people to get married. wahaha! anyone getting married soon so that ru can wear her dress before it turns yellow?
that aside, 25th is finally coming next week!!!!!!!!!!!
omg, it has been a hard month for me.
and its like reaching the end of November so soon. i thought November just started??
sadly, this year i got no Christmas mood. AT ALL. probably because no piggy to celebrate Xmas with me =( and no Xmas deco or singing or anything related in the office. sad sad lonely boring Christmas 2009.
btw, i saw this post at pei's blog that i find it so meaningful i have to share it here:
Written By Regina Brett, 90 years old, of The Plain Dealer, Cleveland , Ohio "To celebrate growing older,
"I once wrote the 45 lessons life taught me. It is the most-requested column I've ever written."
My odometer rolls over to 90 in August, so here is the column once more:
1. Life isn't fair, but it's still good.
2. When in doubt, just take the next small step.
3. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.
4. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick.. Your friends and parents will. Stay in touch.
5. Pay off your credit cards every month.
6. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.
7. Cry with someone. It's more healing than crying alone.
8. It's OK to get angry with God. He can take it..
9. Save for retirement starting with your first pay check.
10. When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile.
11. Make peace with your past so it won't screw up the present.
12. It's OK to let your children see you cry.
13. Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about.
14. If a relationship has to be a secret, you shouldn't be in it.
15. Everything can change in the blink of an eye. But don't worry; God never blinks.
16. Take a deep breath. It calms the mind.
17. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful.
18. Whatever doesn't kill you, really does make you stronger.
19. It's never too late to have a happy childhood. But the second one is up to you and no one else.
20. When it comes to going after what you love in life, don't take no for an answer.
21. Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie. Don't save it for a special occasion. Today is special.
22. Over prepare, then go with the flow.
23. Be eccentric now. Don't wait for old age to wear purple.
24. The most important sex organ is the brain.
25. No one is in charge of your happiness but you.
26. Frame every so-called disaster with these words 'In five years, will this matter?
27. Always choose life.
28. Forgive everyone, everyth ing.
29. What other people think of you is none of your business.
30. Time heals almost everything. Give time, time.
31. However good or bad a situation is, it will change.
32. Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.
33. Believe in miracles.
34. God loves you because of who God is, not because of anything you did or didn't do.
35. Don't audit life. Show up and make the most of it now.
36.. Growing old beats the alternative - dying young.
37. Your children get only one childhood.
38. All that truly matters in the end is that you loved.
39. Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere.
40. If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else's, we'd grab ours back.
41. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.
42. The best is yet to come.
43. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.
44. Yield.
45. Life isn't tied with a bow, but it's still a gift."

omg. im seriously a sotong. i think its in my genes, right down to my toes.
blur until the extreme.
haixx.. lets just.. not talk about it.
hehe~
*think of other topic*
ah, my gastric. seriously, there hasnt been much improvement. i have been diligently taking my medicine before every meal and avoid all cold, spicy, sour, oily, milk and hard to digest stuff (though im suppose to eat porridge for the whole wk).
but my gastric is still hurting. its still stabbing me just as often. ok maybe lesser but its not like getting less pain each day. really wonder whats wrong with it.. are you trying to create a hole inside there?
updates on office - its still bad. super bad. no one can stand lady boss anymore. everyone has alot of rantings of her but for me, i think im not that affected. she din really target me. but as an employee, i have zero respect for her and i think its very much a failure as a manager. if she cant set a good example, how are we to convince ourselves that she is gonna lead the team well?
its sad.
office has been so quiet ever since she is here. all the laughters, shoutings, scoldings, singings and cryings are all gone now. occassionally u can hear a wail from perera when she is stress, and hantu singing "you are not alone~" when she is reminded that everyone is leaving. and that is it. no more. the thing that kept me moving even though get whack by OW everyday is bcuz i got these fun-loving colleagues who will curse her with me and we will just laugh it off happily.
now morale is so damn bloody low. everyone is "just do lo.. she ask then do lo, never ask then act blur lo". and that stupid woman still keep loading more and more stuff. really is stupid woman. comes January when everyone starts throwing letters, i see how bimbo she can get.
oops! sorry! bimbo is the wrong word to use. im disgracing lao jie if i use the word bimbo. lao jie says her brainless is its empty up there, rating 0. and that stupid woman brainless-ness rating is minus infinity.

im like a busy little bee for the past week!
last Tues was our secret farewell with my Fang ah mah. we refuse to go out for a farewell dinner with Ms D&G (new manager) on Thurs as she suggested, thus we discreetly organise it on Tues! muahaha~ had indian food at Clarke Quay with the bunch! Sukh's recommendation! 17 of us in total. so noisy in the restaurant (whats new).. today is fang ah mah first day at her new workplace. hope she is doing well. your cublet/cubsoon will miss u!
caught My Sister's Keeper with the girls on Wed. its been a decade since the 3 of us went into a cinema together lahz.. usually is the 2 of them cuz they like to watch shows which i dun dare to watch.. we bought sushi, Popeye's mash potato (yum!) and bubble tea in as dinner! =x i think the people seating in front of us muz be damn pissed cuz we making so much noise. wahahaha. but its a sad sad show. feel so sad for little Kate and Anna. this world is so unfair isnt it?
Thurs was shopping day for fang ah mah's farewell gift at Orchard..
i learn a new word from the TBLJ boys - LMAO(in case u all wondering what is TBLJ, it means Tiao Bo Li Jian - 挑拨离间). everything got acronym now.. seriously i think got generation gap with the kids. i got no idea what the fish L-MAO is until recently then figured out its - laugh my ass off. chey! anyway, its really LMAO on Friday during dance! claire wasnt around and we got another instructor who taught us a sexy dance, as quoted from her, to seduce guys. in the end hantu says we look like a bunch of frogs trying to seduce flies! wahahahaha!!! really LMAO! so funny!
and BH, i swear all these dance are not doing us any good cuz after that, we went 85 for dinner. we eat more than we exercised. with hantu, my meat fren, christina, ru and hantu's friend. piggy is there as well! so he came over to join us in our next year's HK trip discussion. HONG KONG!!!!!! HK! HK! HK! HK! HK! couldnt stop laughing at Hyatt Hotel's toilet in Taipei flushing down cupboards =.="
then Sat had to work my ass off like a Blangra for the PF at HPB. moving the stupid 400 goodie bags & doing the set up almost killed me. its worse than Cochrane! after the whole thing when i meet piggy and his friends for dinner, my dear says im zombie-fied. which i think i am. bcuz the moment i reach home and sat on sofa, i fell asleep within seconds. there goes my teeny weeny quality time to spend with piggy.
Sunday - im totally obsessed with 終極三國. TOTALLY. new theme song - 以戰之戰! Hu Yu Wei is such a pleasant sight to look at~~~~
see see! i know u will agree with me!!
of cuz i din forgot its our 32months anniversary! ♥
and today, staff clinic grant me an MC for tmr. my gastric has been protesting for the whole week and i have been ignoring it. but the sharp pain is hitting me more and more frequent. Dr Ratnam is so funny! she keep asking me, am i facing alot of stress lately. i think think and told her no. which is the truth. now, especially today, its so happening in office, even more dramatic than 溏心風暴, im so busy choosing between popcorns and potato chips to watch the shows, where got stress?? more amused than anything. she wasnt very convinced that im not stressed after looking at my department. she says our dept are well known for our stressful job scope. LOL. so cute lahz she. and now i have to keep track of how frequent im feeling the pain, how long is the pain and the pain level daily for a month and do a report for her.
hope its not that serious bah?
shall keep my updates here in case i misplace papers and whatsnot.
