fragile

juz came back from a fren's mother's wake and i learnt a few lessons.

1. if u are unwell, go see a doc. dun scrimp on the money and think the pain or ill feeling will go away after a while. u never know wat the pain is caused by. early detection is definitely gonna help you.

2. treat ur loved ones well and show them that u care. u never know wat's gonna happen.

3. always be skeptical and seek 2nd opinion if necessary.

4. have a healthy diet and always look on the bright side of life.

5. carpe diem and live the fullest.

so i'm gonna set some resolutions for myself. hope i fulfill them.

1. bring my papa, mama and da yi out for dinner. maybe Father's or Mother's day.

2. talk to papa more and share his problems at work.

3. be patient and do not be rude to mama.

4. clean and mop my own room.

5. save lotsa money! in case of emergeny.

6. study keep myself abreast with accounting knowledge and info

alrite, that's about it. oh yea, be a good gf and good fren to my frenx!

proud!

i finally went to the gym today!! yep yep. so proud of myself. it has been a long time, really long. however, my stamina has dropped terribly. intended to do an hour run but when i hit the half an hour mark, i juz had to stop. was both tired and my stomach was killing me. guess i ate too much b4 the run. have to start training and exercising more regularly. especially when i've juz registered for the jpmorgan chase run wif my colleagues. it's a 5.6km run i think and i hope to complete it within 35 mins. alright, now that i've a target to work towards, hope i will not procrastinate my gym sessions and waste the membership.

oh..2 more things to be happy about. my weight is still the same! =) haha..was expecting myself to bloat due to the lack of exercise and all the cny goodies.

the final thing...'ness was on sale! hah! and i bought that green cardigan which i liked very much. it was on a 30% discount. good deal. now it's so much more worth it to buy. b4 less, it cost 40 bucks. fortunately i didn't buy it the previous time. if not i'd be kicking myself.

alright....seems that it's indeed a blissful week! oh yah..liverpool defeated man u! that's one more thing to celebrate about!

blissful week

this week has been good. auditing for a new client at parkview square. really nice building with it's european-roman lookalike exterior and interior. it has a high ceiling wih exquisite carvings and a huge courtyard. was telling SA she can consider taking wedding photos here. the client is really helpful and the job is gonna stretched for 2 weeks. not too rush..but we're trying to pull out by tue since half of the fieldwork is done.

i'm really lucky. been having enuff sleep and shopping for this week. coz the office is within walking distance from bugis junction, we would have our lunch there...and shopping of course! haha...bought a top from GG5. it was on 20% sale! and finally bought my new big puncher. found a really good deal. so sinful rite? enjoying good food and doing lotsa shopping. well, at least i exercise this way. haha..wat a way to console myself!

back to the lucky issue. mayb god is on my side, or i've been saving up lotsa karma. after this job ends next week, apparently i'll be going to audit for another nice client. as compared to hx, i'm so much luckier. she has been hainv a tough time at tuas for the past 2 weeeks and she'll be doing 4 jobs in the coming 4 weeks. hopefully they are small ones. maybe i shouldn't be too happy since it's kinda early. the schedule might change.

if work is not hectic, i should really head to the gym. i've been throwing close to 2 months' subscription fees down the drain. think the last time i went to the gym was 30 dec??!?!? and i'm still not feeling guilty. dearie has been nagging at me. constantly reminding me about my flabby arms and untoned legs. oh ya..and that hamburger around my waist. it might ballon into a ramli burger. so watch it gal!

speaking about him. was really touched that he took some time off work and training to spend vday wif me. we had a nice little sandwich dinner at suntec's cedele though i was craving for samy curry at marina food court. but we decided to go for something light since his competition is this sun. curry is too oily. as we were enjoying our dinner, we were laughing at those ppl queueing outside tony roma's. i know it's mean but the queue was really long. i thought it was mad to wait that long. ya...i know most of us would like to have a nice candle light dinner for vday. but is the waiting really worth it? guess it depends on individuals. for us, we decided to take it easy and have a nice, 'slow' dinner while we catch up on each other's day. he was telling me about how ppl really dressed up for the occasion in nus. vday really does has its own significance, eh? well, i did dress up a bit. wore my new southhaven skirt and ck (read: charles and keith)heels. haha...even sa could infer from my dressing that i'm meeting my bf.

after dinner, he suggested having some nice cool beer at paulaners. however, i was been my grouchy self. u see, the heels were killing me coz i've been walking in them for the whole day. paulaners was full and the only seats available were the outside ones on those high stools which i didn't really want. and it was smoky and hot. on a normal day, i would mind all these. i mean how many times have i been to paulaners. but that was not the nite. i ahd to spoil his nite by complaining, 'it's so smoky and hot and i dun want to sit on the high stools.'

felt guilty about it as we decided to chill at starbucks instead. argghh...it's so rare that he wants to drink beer and i have to ruin it. but all was fine. he wasn't angry. he was making fun of me instead. imitating how grouchy i was earlier. and i apologised. it's the heels man. should have put on the plaster.

somehow, once in a while, jzu like now, when i reminscence about the times we have and things we do or he did, made me appreciate him and this relationship even more. everything is going on really fine and smooth for us. we hardly quarrel. some ppl might think it's weird. mayb we've seen enuff quarrels in our life and when differences arise, we talked things over and reasoned with each other instead of bickering and yelling at each other. we teased each other eg. he calling me fat and me calling him short. of course, not too much negative teasing. we know our limits as they can get hurtful if done excessively. we shared problems and sorrows with each other as well as the fun we have at work/sch or with frenz/colleagues.

i guess i've really grown out of that sad-when-we-dun-meet-each-other stage. and that maybe-he's-looking-at-other-girls stage. we no longer need that constant affirmations of love for each other. trust and respect is the main essence. as long as we have each other's in our hearts, that's all it matters.

and right now, i know he has me in his. that's enuff =)

wardrobe cleaning

did a little clean up today. handed some old t shirts, jeans and shorts to my sista and aunt. i figured i have no use of them since i'm wearing office clothes for 5 days every week. and when it comes to weekend, if i do go out, it'll be my comfy levi's and a simple top. and if i dun go out, i'm be im my sleepy wear. so i decided to be heartless and ditch some of my fave but hardly wear clothes like my nike and adidas tops. some of my hall t shirts got the choop too. i guess the kids at salvation army will have more use for them. sigh..really hate to do wardrobe cleaning. first, my heart aches coz i really like them and hate to dump them away. second, i hate myself for spending so much on some of them yet i do not utilise them enuff. lastly, i always have this thought that some day, some occasion, i'll wear them again. and the result? i have this huge mountain of clothes. and my mama is screaming at me coz she can't fit them in everytime she's done wif the ironing. (yes! i'm one lucky girl. my mama still do the ironing and washing of clothes for me =)) and it certainly doesn't help when i keep buying clothes very few weeks.

wat to do? i need to de stress. haha..perhaps it's an excuse for myself not to feel bad. this week, even though was busy at work, me and hx sacrificed dinner time to shop at south haven. bought 2 tops, 1 skirt and 1 pair of pants for 55 bucks! cheap cheap! gonna wear the skirt to work tom! bought a pair of heels from charles and keith too since they were having major discounts. and i bought dearie a crumpler bag for vday! no discount though.

i realised i've been a typical victim. how often do i buy clothes coz i really need them? or i buy them becoz they were either darn cheap or on sale? but i really do need them!! see. self denial again. most of the time, it's the latter. these businessman are darn smart. they know and understand the minds of ppl, especially women. when a top is selling for 10 bucks, wat do u do? u buy them. sometimes even without trying it on coz he queue is juz too long. do u wear them? yes. then good for u. but i believe there are some of us out there who'll leave it in a corner, and tell themselves that they'll wear it one day. that's way happen to me and my clothes. poor clothes. they do not get to be worn out and seen by others. my clotehs are really fab coz i got good taste. hahaha...rite...not making any sense. hint that i should hate to bed. tom will be a better day! yeah rite...work work work...boo
