450: Babies

I wonder how Xiao Ah Min or Xiao Meng Meng will look like.

I think they'd be round round and filled with love. ♥

448: Date

Today is my off day, so met the BF here at Toa Payoh. Went to walk around in search for black socks, because tomorrow will be the first day for me to wear the new uniform. We went around and around but stupid me forgot that there is a Bata shop here, until we saw it, then we dashed inside and bought 4 pairs. Then we had rojak and ban mian for dinner, and after that he came over to my place and we chose the photos that we took in Genting that we were going to get printed.

I'm going to buy some photo albums andprint lots of photos to keep them as memories, the old fashion way. Because we may forget the events that pass us by, but photos can be kept to preserve the precious memories. :)

447: Back from Genting! :)

Returned back from Genting last night. Reached home and about 7 plus. The BF came and stayed over another night. He just left. I think this is the longest period of time I've spent with him. From Tuesday until today. Anyway, going to meet him later again, after he's unpacked everything. :)

Took about 270 photos. :) But am lazy to upload the photos into blogspot, uploading photos into blogspot is a chore. :( But uploading into Facebook is easy, but the limit is only 200 photos, so I've uploaded only 200.

448: Update

Been looking forward to this day for quite some time, because we're going to Genting tomorrow! And today is the first of my 5 days break from work. Work has been hectic, because of the school holidays. But sometimes we wonder, why are so many people still going to crowded places like the zoo, when the germs of H1N1 are flying around? People are sneezing and coughing but I don't think anyone seems to care, except for the number of people I can count on one hand, who are wearing masks to the zoo.

No more talk about the workplace now, because I'm freeeeee!!!!!!!

Later I'll be meeting my partner, we'll be going to pray at the temple for a safe trip. And we're going to the money exchange and also buy some stuff, then he'll be staying at my place tonight and we'll leave for Genting at 6am tomorrow morning!

437: Update

Everything's fine now. We have to move on sooner or later.

Went to the Zoo (again) with my partner yesterday. As usual, he complained about the heat. But I wiped his sweat for him. At one point it took 3 tissues to dry his face and hair. Boy, can that man sweat. Hahaha.

We left at about 4.30pm, and headed to AMK Hub to watch Angels & Demons.

Will upload the photos another time. :D

433: Tattoo blues

We went to Changi Airport T3 yesterday. Before that we went to Expo to see if there were any interesting things to see. But sadly there was only a furniture fair and a John Little sale. Then walked around a bit and went to T3. We had Popeye's chicken, as usual. Then walked around and sat at the place where we can view the planes. He leaned on my shoulder and napped for a bit, until my shoulder ached and I shrugged him off. 

Then we walked around and went to Harris bookstore. I saw this book about tattoos. I was super engrossed in it. It included the history of tattoos and all. And even had many many tattoo designs and the meaning behind each classification of each tattoo design. You know the genre of music I listen to, so easily I'm influenced by my idols. They have tattoos all over their bodies. It's like their bodies are the canvas for artists, in this case tattoo artists. 

So the bf came over and saw what I was reading, I told him I wanted this book. He wasn't too happy about it. Then I told him if I got this book, I might want a tattoo, and after the first one I will want more. He walked away. I put the book back. Then he sulked the rest of the way while sending me home. 

After that, on the phone I told him I will not have a tattoo, because I know he would be furious if I did. He told me it's my skin and my body. I can do whatever I like with it. But after a while, he told me that he will never allow me to get a tattoo, because it's ugly and dirty. Even if I got a small one, I will get a bigger one the next time.

I wanted to get a tattoo of Avenged Sevenfold's Deathbat, which looks like this:

But I realized that it's too rough. Then I decided I'm happy with just a small one. Maybe a 力量 on my wrist.

But that's the end of the story. I will never have a tattoo.

432: Update on this week

Monday

Family came back from Malaysia. Seems like there's nothing very very serious with my ah ma, but still, her time is nearing, but it may take a while. My sister found out that the BF stayed over, because I had forgotten to keep his towel, toothbrush, and shaver. And somehow my ma found out too. I think they were suspicious in the first place. They confronted me, I admitted, they didn't say anything after that. Teehee.

Tuesday

Went for a 4hr grooming course at work. The man taught us how to walk, to sit down, to iron our uniform properly blah blah. As if we didn't know all that already. The lady taught us how to apply make-up, match the colours of our make-up to our uniform, style our hair blah blah. This was kind of useful. They even had us take before-and-after photos, of us with and without make-up. They said they had to submit to HR. WTH. We got a box of make-up brushes and eye-shadow colours for free.

Wednesday

Common off day with the BF. It was also the first day of the launch for The Peak here at Toa Payoh, the DBSS flat that they have started to build now. We took our queue number and proceeded to wait for about an hour before our numbers were called and we went in. We met another one of the BF's army mates. I was so shy. His friends are all so adult-y. But I'm still so very young adult-y. You know what I mean.

Oh my gosh. I loved the 5-room high-ceiling living room, but it costs a frigging $720,000. The 4-room was okay, there wasn't a show flat for the 3-room. But the 4-room costs about $480,000. If I could I would buy the 4-room, but we can't afford that now. Sigh. What a waste, if it was under HDB and a lot cheaper, I'm sure we would have applied for a unit without a moment's hesitation. It's only a 5-mins walk from the MRT station, and right across the street from my parents' place. Haiz. If only.

Thursday

Work. Boring work.

Today

Went to Marina Square with Huling after work. Reached there at about 8.30pm, we had no time for dinner so I grabbed 2 breads from BreadTalk to munch while walking, while Huiling munched on her Subway cookies. We went to Marina Square because Huiling wanted to buy her jeans. I wanted to see if there were anything worth buying. But I saw nothing I liked, as usual. I want to shop! But can't seem to find anything I like. But the things I like are so frigging expensive, like that darned DBSS flat. SIGH.

428: Our 3 years :)

This day marks the 3rd wonderful year we've had together. He's grown up with me, and I've grown old with him. Lots of tears, laughter, and love...

I went to work, he's now at work. No big celebration for us. He's not the romantic type. I can't hold a knife to his throat and force him to be romantic, and anyway I'm not a romantic either. So this day is just any other day. But we're amazed at how fast time flies.


Love you, and I always will. ♥

427: My V-Day

My Valentine's Day was alright, though not a particularly good one this year because I wasn't feeling well and whining half the time. And then the BF ordered the wrong Korean food for me, it wasn't the one I wanted, and I whined super loudly. He looked a little upset. But it wasn't his fault.

I dunno how he's able to stand my whining. I whine like a 5 year old girl. I have to love him more for that.

424: Happy Chinese New Year Eve!

The BF is over at my place now. He has to work tomorrow morning so he's over to stay for the night. My ma invited him over to have reunion dinner with us, because she has already declared the BF as her "half-son". Teehee. I'm glad that everything is going on well with the BF and my family. :)

423: Update

Forgot to blog about something reeeally exciting yesterday. Omg I can't believe I forgot about that, that was the climax of the day.

Okay, so the most exciting event of the day was..... The BF and I went to POSB and opened a joint account! I know, we've been talking about it for a couple of months, but we finally did it. It made us feel like husband and wife! We feel married now. :)


OH MY GAWWWD! I'M SO EXCITED NOW I FEEL LIKE JUMPING OUT OF MY CHAIR AND RUN AROUND IN CIRCLES!!!!!

Calm down. Calm down.

On a more futuristic and realistic note, we'd sort of came to an agreement that we are going to get married next year.

OH MY GAWWWWD!!!! NOW I'M OUT OF MY CHAIR AND RUNNING AROUND IN CIRCLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Calm down. Calm down.

Okay. Enough about that. Today I received my full timer name tag. I kept showing it off to everybody. But they only gave me the "Okay, that's enough" look. I've been wearing the old one for a year and a half now, I think I've got the most rotten-looking name tag of all the staff in the zoo.


Doesn't it look neat?

And while I'm showing off my brand new name tag, my ma is showing off the pot of 8 chrysanthemums that she got at the market for only $5.

418: Update

I know I haven't been blogging. Yes yes yes I know okay shut up nobody cares.

Work is okay, love-life is good, s*x-life is great.

The BF's new job is okay too. He says the job sucks but whose job doesn't suck? His pay is good, though. That means I don't have to worry so much about our future. I'm just a teeny bit envious of his salary. A tiny bit.

As for me, I'm wondering how long can I possibly be able to tolerate working at the zoo. There are good and bad things, of course, once in a while everything is good, good, but then all of a sudden something bad happens and the happiness meter plummets all the way to the bottom, and then it tries excruciatingly hard to crawl its way to the top. Yes I'm trying, trying excruciatingly hard.

I think my fuck-care attitude has brought me kind of far, and I'm proud of it. It's like a "Nothing can beat me, I DON'T CARE!" attitude.

This blog post is excruciatingly painful to write because I can't think of anything to write. And people who type a few words in their blog posts, I think they're only wasting their time.

I'm addicted to quizzes on Facebook. I think I'll go and do another 20 or so.

By the way, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year and an early Happy Chinese New Year to everyone, in case I don't blog again in the next 10 years.

417: Ethan came to visit!

Ethan and his family came over yesterday afternoon. Just after three months, he has grown so much. He's starting to look like a big boy now. Not like three months ago, when he looked like an overgrown baby. We had fun with him. And he's very smart too. He can count to ten, but he's not even 2 years old yet. :)










In the evening I went to meet the BF after work, to bring him over to my place, where he stayed the night. He has to wake up early to catch the first train to get to work, but unfortunately his workplace is at Little India and he stays at Jurong West, so even if he caught the first train of the day, he'd still be late for work. Since I'm staying at Toa Payoh, it's faster to get to Little India. So my ma granted him permission for him to stay over if he has to work on Sunday and public holidays. So last night was his first night. :)

415: Christmas decorations!

I knocked off early yesterday cos Boss wanted me to go SingPost to send a parcel to a customer. Since I could go off early so might as well meet the BF. It's difficult to see him nowadays, with our tight schedules. Surprise! He came to fetch me from work, although he sounded reluctant on the phone. The zoo is quite a distance from his place. But anyway, it's the first time he came to fetch me from work! You can't imagine the happiness I felt, but I don't know if he knows that.

Then we went to send the parcel and had dinner. Then we headed to my place cos he wanted to visit my parents. As usual, they talked a lot. I was quiet throughout. I think my parents really love him.

After that I grabbed my camera and we went to Orchard Road to view the Christmas lighting. This year's decorations are very cute.
