lazy weekend

it's weird that i don't feel like going out this weekend even though i juz received my interim bonus. perhaps i shopped too much the last weekend. but i think it's more of the i-wanna-stay-home-and-get-some-work-done attitude that is keeping me at home. brought some work back..hoping to get it done but nah, i still didn't do it. kinda sick. remember that i promise myself not to bring work back..juz can't help it. mayb it prevents myself from feeling guilty, u know, juz like the hall days. opps.

think i'm seriously sleep deprived and my eye bags are getting terrible. and now, i'm worried about wrinkles. might sound a little premature, but i'm seriously worried. wif the late hours and deadlines, looking old is inevitable, as told by my colleagues. really scrared that i'll look older than my age. gotta try to look for remedies.

woke up really early this morning. was suppsoed to support kp and dearie at the spore bi. but we reached ecp too late as we couldn't find a parking lot. hence, kp was barred from joining. could see she was realy disappointed. guess there's always another time. dearie enjoyed his race though, his last race as captain. am so happy for him. can finally focused his time on studies.

discovered this resturant at bugis called ma maison. fantastic food and ambience. but a little pricey though. guess indulging in sinful pleasures once in a while is aok.

looking forward to next weekend though. gonna go suntanning on sun! hurray! i miss the sun!

enuff to last...

went on a shoping spree today! well, it was yesterday actually. haha...constitute me calling it a spree since i've only spent around 120+. i'm well capable of spending more though. thankfully i only brought out 200 bucks. the rest were locked out in another a/c. phew. and it was becoz we went out late. if we had met earlier, i predict more of my royal buyings. hahaha...

think i should continue this shop only at the end of the month thingie. it's kinda good i think. coz i used to splurge when i got my allowance or pay. thus, leading to the no-money-for-the-rest-of-the-month sorry sight. this suggestion was given by dearie which was given to him by wayne. the man juz spent a whopping 250 bucks on his crankset!

so i was quite proud of myself. love the feeling of having my hands filled wif shopping bags. every minute of it. made me feel damn satisfied. haven't shopped for like a month? think the last time when i shopped was when i was stationed near bugis. opportunities.

downed on myself a whole new attire. except that they can't matched one another.
bought
1st buy: 2 pairs of black 'button' earrings.
suitable for work and it was meant for it.
2nd buy: light pink top from zen.
multifunctional. can be wore for work or wif jean.still can't believe that i actually asked for a discount. total disgrace.
3rd buy: white open toes heels!
love it!now i have the right footware to match my while bag =)
4th stop: spring collection bysi skirt
absolute good buy! it costs only 23 bucks! mayb it ain't good material but who cares. i love it.
5th & last buy: mphosis black top
guess black is still my fave colour. versatile and i look the sleek and classy look which it can brings out. i figured myself buying more mphosis top when i'm out for my 2nd shopping.

hx was a good companion (jean too! i missed that time when we bought lotsa stuff from city link and raffles city!) and she sure did exert a lo to f self control. bet the sales girl at joop was hopping mad.

u see, hx was trying this jacket and she decided to buy it. the sale girl wrote the sales memo and walked us to the counter but she stopped midway and asked have we got the joop card. we said no and enquired about how to get it. we have to spend 80 bucks in a single to get that lifetime membership which entitles us to a 10% discount. so we decided to walk back to the joop section and combed for more stuff. since i was also planning to get that kind of jacket but not then coz i've already spent 120 bucks, i suggested why don't we buy next weekend? on 2nd look at the jacket, she decided not to buy it anymore. u know, juz dun feel like. so she told the sales girl and we left. ouch! there goes her commission. so near yet so far. she muz be cursing and swearing at herself. guess she was banging that we would buy one more item to make it 80. alas.

gonna meet jean and sha for dinner later. haven't been doing my work this weekend. decided to give myself a break. i believed i've been overwork. brain is cooked. hahah

but i better get some work done now. if not, this coming week will be hell.

5 babies & FINALLY!!

alright please do not misread. it's not that i'm finally happy that i got 5 babies or wat. it's 2 separate issues.

i've finally completed the audit of all the 9 dormant companies. not that i did all, did 7 of them and in fact, was 3 days late. but heck. amd for the 5 really dormant ones, i did everything myself! from asm, sections work to srm. but of cours, there's more to come wif the drafting of fs and closing the file. hehe..so there u go, my first 5 babies =)

and the part about FINALLY!!, the pool strikers finally scored!!! hehe..all except cisse. he should have got that one in wif the header. tough luck, but nando got in wif the rebound. nice job! still trying to find out who scored the 2nd goal. was it an own goal by fulham? gonna find out from the website later.

saw a nice skirt and top from bysi. 23 bucks each! cheap rite? i'm so tempted...hahah. haven't been shopping since pay day. it's amazing.

locked out

i still can't believe we were locked out of the client's office. in a bad mood now. coz my hp, wallet, laptop and stuff are all inside. things are undone and unpacked. i'm feeling so grouchy, messy and frustrated.

happy!

i am so tempted to get myself a starbucks when i walk past the outlet every morning. thank goodness i did that on fri! coz i found my latest fave cookies inside! pepperridge farm milano!! can't believe they sell it there!! woohoo...definitely made my day! hahaha...then when the power of coffee and cookies combine, my thing came! finally...i was starting to think of myself as a weirdo. perhaps work has been causing unduly stress?

collected my specy on thurs. thus, decided to give my eyes a rest. have been wearing my new geeky specs for the past few days. dunno why, i'm in a mood for specs. and i feel like getting myself one of those big sun glasses but have been too lazy to go shopping. i bet many ppl are jealous when they see wat i've jzu typed. most of frenz are to buried wif work for shopping and here i am, complaining that i'm too lazy to shop. haha

think age is catching up wif me. now, i rather spend my sats at home chit chatting and gossipping wif my aunties then spend my afternoon squeezing through the crowd at orchard. well, mayb there was mahjong. and mayb coz i do not have anything that i want to buy badly. but i kinda think the most valid reason is because i'm trying to save. saving for my braces, saving for the aussie trip wif jean and partylycloudy, saving for the short getaway wif xiao, ys and gang, and most importanly, saving to make myself feel accomplished and happy! i rememebered i used to tell dearie i hate the feeling of relying on someone for money. i want to be financially independent. and i want it in a way such that everytime i spend, i dun have to think 'will i have enuff for the rest of the month?' that was exactly how i feel when i was studying. my parents did give me enuff. but enuff is never that enuff for me. i am someone who has a lot of wants. read. not needs but wants. everytime i save up, i'll end up spurging it on something ex. and before i knew it, my account is dry again. opps. terrible! so this month, i was a little bit ambitious. i put aside a huge chunk of money. and i'm trying to stay indoors as often as possible and spend as little as possible. well well, except for the cookies. but it's really nice. it melts in my mouth and really make my day =)

3 more weeks to pay day. if i eat less expensive food, think i can still set aside some money for shopping. hee

had dinner wif xiao, ys, discus, guru and slut. dinner was followed wif ktv. think my ktv skills improved. still sing badly but at least now i enjoy it more. didn't really like it last time coz i always feel its ex and the songs know me but i dunno them. mayb practice makes perfect?

the sun has been good. been dying for a swim. think i'll drown if someone throws me into the pool now. anyone game for sentosa? need a tan...my face is turning yellow...

alright, time to get some work donw b4 i join roundie at nus. we'll showing bao's support for her play, 'vagina monoluges'! wat a name. but i have this feeling i'll enjoy the play....

*gloom

the view is breath taking...but it's lonely to enjoy it wif no one. still working..not complaining though..but am starting to feel bored.. my mind is wandering..of how my weekend is gonna be, how i'll look when i collect my new specs tom nite, how dearie is, and wat my future has in store for me..

feel like going home but my mind is reminding me tat there are 9 companies waiting for me..and 10 more stat reviews to do tom.

well, at least the room is big. i have more than enuff space to put my stuff and room for my legs.

not hungry yet but i'm thinking of the soft baked cookies from pepper field. yum yum. time to stock out.

juz realised this place is really near to george street and i have promised myself some kick ass body combating on fri nite!! looking forward to it!

good karma

most of my colleagues are green wif envy. this is because i'm currently doing a particular job which everyone loves and hopes to go back for.

we have the entire conference room to ourselves. for me and my senior. juz the 2 of us for now. we're on the 41st floor and it has almost a bird's eye view of the entire spore. ok, mayb i exaggerated. think half?

i was happy for the day. i love the space and the view. can lay out all my files, stationery and do my work in ample space and comfort. so unlike the previous job in balestier. cramped to the max.

had lunch at tcc. felt even happier. drank the super sinful oreo mocha frappe. thumbs up!

mayb i shouldn't be so happy. coz the a1 who did the job last yr, completed the 9 dormant companies' fieldwork, done the stat review for the 9 and remaining group companies plus the fs in 2 weeks. which was 10 days. so that's my deadline. at most 1 company a day. and one day has passed.

good luck! ok, but i'm worried. at most work over the weekends again.
