Darling BB

BB can only come back tomorrow as there are some problems with the plane and everyone on the ship gotta stay on board for one more day.. This trip BB really misses me. I received 2 of his messages today whereby he sent it 2 days ago (guess reception is really bad) and I can sense that he really misses me very much as it has been a while since I received such messages from him and suddenly I feel so sad that he can't be by my side and let me bully (He secretly loves it!). hahhahahahah!

I always make him to do funny faces with me when we take pictures but just before the click I will always decided to act cute instead. Hahhahahah! So he looks ugly in most funny faces photos! *wide evil grinz*

BB: Irritating. Ask me to pout and she act cute. Pout is supposed to make your lips looked as pointed as possible!

TMD..ask him to smile and he looks like he is disgusted! He says that he is suppressing his smile cause he's on the phone! *fumes*

BB: hahaha..for once I got her! Me looking good and she looks ugly ;p

Lastly, the only decent picture that BB ever took for me.

Me looking all cheery and happy :D

*Hearts!!*

Feeling blue

BB went for "trial" sailing for another 3 days again..

It felt kinda weird without him around (especially at night after I got home) and maybe it's just me..the room seems to feel colder(literally colder) without him. Maybe it's the pms-ing period so a little emo and I am seriously bored. Like there's no one to talk to at home and I felt so alone (maybe I am just getting too used to his presence).I probably died from not talking after a while. Hhahahah!

Gosh..How am I going to survive the coming four looooong months?!?!?! I seriously can't imagine :(

And ya!To digress a little from my sadness, I had been reading this girl's blog and she is currently staying in Dallas (her hubby in air force) and the more I read, the more I wanna go over immediately la! Life seems great and peaceful over there! The only major hurdle for me is whether am I able to give up my job (I am not exactly earning peanuts)and just go over there for 2 years as when I get back, it might be a little difficult for me to get a nice job..Well, Hopefully everything will go according to my plan.

I am praying.

God bless.

Familiar no more :(

I went to Suntec earlier to just browse around and hopefully I can manage to get my glutinous rice (I have cravings for it for the longest time since I changed job la!). I happily ordered one and paid for it. But who knows, when the aunty is packing for me, I sensed something was amiss. It is not the one I always had before!! The one I always ate comes with char siew and it was top off with a nice char siew sauce! The one aunty was preparing was with ikan bilis!! Arghhhhhh...It is practically worlds apart! :(

Feeling upset, I went to the other tower in the hope of getting a pair of heels to replace my current one (Yes, I am one of those that can have one particular top/dress/shoe in different colors if I really love it or buy 2 pairs at a go in case it ran out of stocks in the future ;p). Guess what?? The shop is GONE! Not only that particular shop, a few others had changed hands too!! I can't believe it!It's just within such a short period of time!

All of a sudden, the entire mall felt so cold and different and I am like someone being there for one of the first few times in my life whereby I used to be there almost everyday! It's so upsetting ;(

Guess the only good thing that came out of my little trip is that I managed to get the crystal jade ham and egg bread that I love. Better than nothing at all!

My First Birthday Present in 2010

I received my first birthday present today for the year 2010! It's seriously an early birthday pressie as it's 2 more weeks to my birthday.

But well, it's considered a 'surprise' gift as it's from my boss. Yes, my BOSS. I got a feeling that he will get me a gift as he asks me when is my birthday in front of his business partners while we were on our way to a dinner meeting and being the buay paisei me, I just told him it's 18th and asks for a pressie straight! Hahahhaa...

Guess part of it works! Hahahahah.. he was on the phone when we arrive at the restaurant (it's at DFS!Perfect location to ask for birthday pressie during dinner! Hhahaha!!) and he excuse himself from the table and he was gone for a while. And when he came back, he handed me the gift :)

To be honest, I was a little disappointed when I saw the LV carrier (it's a small carrier) as I dun think I need anything from there and I am not a huge fan of the brand. But nevertheless, it's really the thoughts that counts. At least he bothered to ask and seriously got me a pressie.

My First pressie from my boss :

Well, I would say it's quite a nice cardholder with quite an adequate amount of compartments. This will come in handy for my namecards (that's what my boss wants me to use it as and to give out more namecards for networking/business purposes) and some cash when I go out without my giant bags :)

So looking forward to more pressies!!!

I am a happy gal! :D

Happy Birthday Mdm Boo :D

H A P P Y  B I R T H D A Y  MDM BOO!!!!!! May you be blessed with all the things you wished for and stay blissful, 'san ba', noisy (minus the irritating part) and cheerful always!!!

How time flies! It's Mdm Boo's birthday again! This year, we went to Hard Rock Cafe! :D

cool interiors

Well, I didn't take any pictures of the food simply because I was too hungry and taking pictures seriously didn't cross my mind when the food was served. Hahhahaha..

Birthday celebrations at Hard Rock are damm high profile la! They actually "invite" the birthday girl/boy to the stage and EVERYONE in the restaurant will sing a birthday song for him/her! OMGoodness! So damm drama la.. And with our low profile birthday girl, we specially request them to just quietly bring out the cake! Hahhaa..when a waiter brought the cake out, the other waiter standing beside him attempted to sing the birthday song out loud and the one who was holding the cake quickly stopped him, saying,"later I kanna complain la! they want it a quiet affair!" Hahhahaha..do we have the face of a complain queen? *innocent look*

Pretty Birthday cake chosen specially by me ^^

(The birthday cake was meant to have only ONE candle but the waiter just put both (1 have a spare candle) and Mdm Boo buay paisei..Insists that she is only 20 years old *roll eyes* (-_-)")

(To sidetrack a little) I bought a very pretty Precious Moment Cinderella figurine holding a pretty birthday cake for Mdm Boo (but I forgot to take picture) and Mdm Boo is so dui lian la! Firstly, she couldn't recognise that the figurine is Cinderella and still says that it looks like ah soh!!!! OMG!! I wanna faint la! My inital thoughts are that I AM the " cinderella" holding the cake to her and when she mentioned 'ah soh', it's super turn off la!! Totally don't want to associate myself with it anymore la..(-_-)"

 

1st wish : I wished Miss Boo will lose all her unnecessary fats, be a beautiful bride and get a good deal for her dream home next year!

2nd wish : I wished both me and Miss Boo will strike Toto (first prize!), have a great career and earn heaps of money!

3rd wish : I wish there will be a little me or little mr lai crawling around the house soon!! Hahhahaha! 

Yeah!! All my above wishes WILL COME TRUE! Hhahahaha! - Mdm Boo

Hahahhaha..I LOVEEEEEEEE Mdm Boo's birthday wishes! Hehheheeh..and I simply HEART the polaroid photo taken by Hard Rock Cafe!

Simply LOVE it! :D

Looking forward to KTV session this friday!!! Yeah!!!

Mundane days = Bitchy days

Life has been pretty much of a routine recently and it's kinda boring =( Time flies at work (especially last week) and 一转眼, it's Friday! TGIF! What else can I do other than bitching in my thoughts when my days are boring enough??

I have been conducting interviews and interviews every other day and it's seriously taxing. Especially when one of the major criteria for the candidates is that they MUST look pretty. It makes me feel that in today's society, if you are neither pretty nor rather pleasant looking and does not make the slightest effort to dress up, you cant get a decent job, or rather something that pays you pretty decently and in a nice environment. Reality is harsh but it's a fact.

天下没有丑女人, 只有懒女人.

This is definitely true to a certain extend as if one does not even have the energy to make themselves look presentable, how hardworking can one be? EVERYONE loves to look at pretty things, be it human or items (Don't talk me about inner beauty. People judge you by the first impression and if you are fat, bad complexion, deep eyebags, no makeup and with BO, NOBODY will think that you have inner beauty as no one, or rather, no man will seriously want to consider "exploring" whatever inner beauty you think you may have.) 

After speaking and looking at 392761655389201 candidates, I simply can't understand why will some people can actually turn up for interviews in shorts and flip flops and absolutely zero makeup, exposing all their acnes, eyebags and seriously bad complexion that is shouting for 995. Do they even think that it is seriously appropriate(C'mon, its an interview! Especially when I put "makeup required" in the ads!)? If one have beautiful complexion and features, I am seriously fine with them coming in with minimal makeup

I am starting to feel sick even looking at them (I know I sound like a bitch)! Let alone wanting to even speak to them. These are seriously inconsiderate as they spoils my day (I am a bitch who Loves pretty things) and makes me feel so demoralised! They should seriously do some self reflection as they are bringing negative energy to this society! Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..

I'll just pray that I will have good candidates later.

God bless.

Shopping Sunday

Did I mentioned that I was really excited about going for a shopping trip on Sunday? Well, I was really excited about it as my entire Saturday plans was spoiled all thanks to you-know-who(if any of you doesnt know who I am talking about then it's too bad ;p) and I gotta be in my office to settle some stuffs throughout my entire evening.

My torturous Saturday pasted and Sunday finally arrived! I went to Ion and chiong into Zara. Guess what?? I seriously think that Zara had a change of buyers! 75% of the entire shop carries clothes that is seriously targeted at all the xiao meimeis!!!! The material and designs are so trashy! I couldn't believe my eyes when I was browsing through the collections! They even carry dresses that looked like what a lot of people are selling on the blogshops! Dresses that looked like it's a 2 piece outfit and sewn together. Top is black/white with floral bottom! OMG!!!! If people can get the almost exact same thing for $20, why would they pay $60 for it???? Plus, the material sucks.

Well, people might say that Zara has the TRF collection, Zara and Zara woman collection and not all of them are bad. BUT, only 15% of the Zara collection are normal which means they carries the basic wear like basic pants and cardis and the rest, seriously, are not worth looking at.

After Zara, I shopped around and still didnt manage to get anything. Maybe like what BB says, this season of clothings are just not suitable for me or rather, just not me. We went to rest our feet at TWG.

The ambience is pretty nice and it will be even nicer if it's not so cramp :) Other than the ambience and it's normal tea, I don't think I will go back for any other reasons. Maybe it's just me as I am not an extreme tea lover and I simply don't know how to appreciate foie gras. Alot of their bites consists of that and I seriously don't like the taste of it plus, they have too much 'tea' in everything..even in their macaroons, which is a major turn-off for me.

BB was being adventurous as usual and ordered this lychee with some rose tea (can't remember the name) and it all sound so good! Well, never judge a drink by its name. This drink is super bitter! Yes, BITTER. It looked so innocent, nice and smooth and who will expect this lychee drink to be bitter??

I ordered the Club sandwich which is not too bad, except that all the ingredients (tomatoes, egg and chicken) are not being placed under one portion. It comes in tomato sandwich, chicken sandwich and egg sandwich. Well, it's a club sandwich afterall as it is ALL being placed on a plate. -_-"

Lastly is the macaroons. I am excited as I love macaroons! Well, maybe it's a suay day for me as even the macaroons are not to my liking. The macaroons are infused with tea flavors...and it tasted so weird!

Being deprived of shopping and having an extremely bad day, something finally cheered me up. I finally bought a pair of nice earrings :D

I've been wanting to get a nice pair of earrings for a while and I am glad I didn't get the one from Chanel as it's a little too loud plus there are a zillion people wearing it (both real and fake ones). This pair is sweeter and I like the dark green swarovski crystal with a little "D" hanging over it.

Finally, at least I found something that I like and cheered myself up a little :D

Hope this week will be a great great week! :D
