boring saturday

been watching Disney movies the whole morning. i woke up rather early today despite the fact that i had a very long phone convo with boyfriend the night before. i think our longest to date. it usually lasts less than half an hour.

anyways, invited him to have dinner with my sister and me next week. we'll be going to survey stuff at Ikea together next week too. things for my room actually and i have been wanting to get curtain blinds for my room and survey a new wardrobe. my wardrobe is bursting at it's seams 'cos sister and me have way too many shoes and clothes, too many to organize in a neat manner anyways.

other than that, i have nothing more too update. mother has gone off somewhere, father will be leaving for work soon-ish. brother's off fishing and sister dear is still in bed.

okay done.

movie date and updates

caught this yesterday with Khai over at our usual spot. i won't comment on the movie just yet 'cos I'm waiting for the 2nd part to be released next July, i think. anywho, Doby the Elf was cute in the movie too bad it didn't get that much screen time.

anyways, Khai gave me an early birthday present and wished me happy 22nd instead of 21st. i actually didn't realise it until she told me 'cos i was touched that she got me a gift. coincidentally, it was the same body shop perfume i wanted to get for myself the day that i tried it last October when i went out with the boyfriend. i couldn't purchase it then 'cos i wanted to buy some stuff from our night safari trip. i swear she's psychic sometimes.

oh yeah, the name of the perfume is Japanese Cherry Blossom. it's uber nice smelling. i like.

other than that there's not much to update. work is work. life at home is as normal as it can get. looking forward to an intimate dinner with boyfriend and sister.

next month is another different story.

behind the wheel

Had an impromptu driving lesson, courtesy of my father. it was fun and an even funnier, enriching experience. there now words to describe the feeling 'cos i'll end up confusing the lot of you AND myself. the fact that we did it illegally made it a whole lot more special.

I LOVE MY FATHER 'COS HE'S JUST SO RANDOM SOMETIMES. :)

"You are hereby not allowed to bring your handphones to the counters. there will be more surprise checks conducted by the Duty Officers and 100% body checks conducted if necessary. " -AC

I feel like a freaking criminal at work now, having to 'seal' my handphone before the DO comes and do their checks. i don't mind not bringing my handphone to counter during morning or afternoon shifts but it's a freaking night shift man. I'm so gonna be the first to be falling asleep in the counters. I might end up chewing on coffee grounds just to keep awake.

Okay, that wasn't a pretty picture but i have no other description as to how sleepy and not to mention bored to death i will be later on at work.

it doesn't seem fair that only Woodlands has to be so strict.

wish me luck people. -_-'

busy day

woke up early... yadayadayada...

went to Prudential's office, which is next to Singapore Shopping Centre which i didn't know existed, signed up a savings plan. i'm happy that i made a decision, and a pretty grown up one at that, for signing my own insurance plan. it's a savings cum insurance plan. which will reach maturity when i turn 46. may seem long but i plan not to touch the money at all, in case of emergency only.

i'll be canceling my savings account with POSB this Friday. it defeats the purpose, for e at least, when they decided to attach our my savings account so that it can be easily accessible via atm. that step just made the money too accessible to me since i've finally realised that i'm actually a splurger when it comes to shopping.

i made new financial decisions after finalising the insurance and savings plans details with my Prudential Agent.

the decision that i made few months ago about wanting to continue studying has been shaken up quite alot, i might add. but that is for a later day. once i've settled the muck in my head that is.

'sides the trip to Prudential, went grocery shopping at NTUC for rations for work and other important stuff with the voucher i received for my birthday which i received from work. whew! long sentence aye?

and i bought 3 new titles, one was for brother, another Percy Jackson book. glad that i got him hooked on to reading a book. 'cos that's how i improved my english and hoping that it'd help him like how it has helped me.

the other two titles are;

i'm prolly gonna be done with the books before the week ends. and then i'll get bored again.the 8th book of the HON series will be out Jan 2011 and i'm psyched to get my hands on it and devour it in one sitting like all the other titles before it.

i'm still deciding if i want to get my hands on the Immortals series by Alyson Noel and the Night World series by L.J Smith or get the Inkheart trilogy. if i do, the big problem is, where do i keep them all??

i need wall to wall book shelves *groans*

how the hell do you want me to help you?

told you to go through CDC but you said that you had to go look for the jobs yourself. well, hello, that's how they work. they help you by referring to you jobs and setting up interviews for you and all the little things in between. you still have to make the effort 'cos no damn way will the government spoon feed you by just giving you a job when you visit the CDC.

i recommended you try retail or waitressing but you said you have back problems and can't stand too long.

i recommended you try admin jobs or data entry but you said you tried them before.

how can i even begin to help you if every other idea you shove back in my face. the only reason you are finding a job now is because you want to get engaged. total lack of future planning perhaps?

ugh! i don't know why i even bother. maybe it's true when some people say i'm just too nice to others sometimes.

this is just making me dizzy, back to watching disney movies before i head off to work.

turning into a junkie

ever since i started watching make up junkie vids on youtube, I'm becoming more and more addicted to make up. I've already linked my fave make up junkie, xsparkage and I'm planning to buy most of the products used in her vids. most seems to be M.A.C products, especially the brushes. ironic how every other make up youtuber uses M.A.C brushes. it must be that good.

anws, the other products that she uses, Urban Decay and Too Faced, can actually be found at Sephora! just goes to show i don't get around much to window shop during my days off, maybe for movies and a good eat but that's about it. i need to visit Ion, soon!

okay, I'm sounding wayyy too materialistic and vain but i don't care, not much anyways. 'sides it gives me things to do.

okay bye!

finally done

changed my blog skin after weeks of searching for one that was suitable. liked this one the most. and since i decided to forgo my final theory test due to the fact that I'm sorely under revised, i edited the codes and voila!

the background can be changed and the whole skin is sweet and simple. just the way i like it. still wondering if i should put in a song or something.

ohwells, I'm done for the day. oh, and i can't wait for Nana's chalet. wootwoots!
