Boss is currently doing vineyard visiting at Bordeux,
won't be back till next week
He was nice to ask if we wanted anything last Friday...
Actually not true lah, I asked for a favour.
LOL...!
I can't resist the temptation (tho' I'm thinking Chanel)!
I took about 20minutes to decide where my next pay cheque goes to...

Zipped wallet compact

The Arena

Trying to be funny when we are still damn sober.
Quan made fun of Angie,

Bummer no. 2 w no. 1
Not for long already....
Enjoy while you can!

Cheeky cheeky...

My brother!

The bar maid is damn extra, leh!

Who's the new paparazzi?

Ms Huang's schedule will be fixed for next 1-3 months.
She can't attend dance classes cos' her back hurts & am gg to see a chiropractor this weekends.

I had some white & red wines prior to dinner.
Wine appreciation class started at 3pm this afternoon!
.
.
.
I took only sips of his Aussie reds during dinner.
Boss mentioned Moomba has a good collection of Australian wines.
I don't feel really hungry, thus decided to skip desserts.
Maybe we can go back there for some good wines next round?

1st day of training

23/03/09
Hard Rock Cafe
It's a pity that no one wants to stay till late cos' Kumar & friends are coming in to perform @ 11.30pm.
Nevertheless,
we had good music by Ngak & Clement throughout our dinner.

Today is my 1st day of work.
C.H is officially back from the States, bummer no more, vampire no more..
Surprisingly I wasn't as tired as expected.
---
I have really nice colleagues & boss.
They have have been very friendly & helpful =)
Aaron, who sits opposite me is super cool leh....
He doesn't speak to me or even look at me (we are like a metre away, only!)
Hahahaha...
Boss gave the new brokers a welcome dim sum lunch.
No one knows I don't eat PIG (heehee) & many dishes are actually pork.
Still, I eat a bit lah.
There's a saying, "...Beggars can't be chooser."
LOL!!!
I was just kidding....

I was literally starving real bad by 8.30pm.
Usually I don't take breakfast cos' it's my sleeping time.
Is it cos' I started my "engine" early, so it will work harder?
Anyways...
Food is yummy-yum-yum as usual!

No Monday blues!
Cos' everyone is "mourning" eh...?
No no, we are zebras!

Last day of FREEDOM...!

I'm losing my freedom in a few hours time!
Friday night I was club hopping but my body just refused to relax & groove to the music...
I spent most of the time sleeping over the weekends...
I'm feeling really tired the last few weeks, not too sure why....?

Baby Shower
Pasir Ris

This is Shin, not the star of the day...
I missed him!
His grandma kept laughing at him cos' he molested me!
He was just playing with my necklace initially & then he started touching places that he shouldn't.
LOL........!!!

I didn't take photo with Kimmi,
cos' she overwhelmed with lotsa attention from everybody.
I'm happier to see Shin (for now) as Kimmi can't play with me yet.
Hahhaa!

Tangs Plaza
Orchard Road

I was preparing to go out this afternoon when I realise I'm running out of concealer.
So I swing by town after the party to grab some stuff before I start getting real busy.

I love heels!
I really love heels!
I still love heels!!!
.
.
.
I can't wear them anymore (not for walking)...
My back is killing me.
B advised me to wear flats, before he has to force me to see a chiropractor...

Calling all bloggers!

When I received an email from Chloe, I was wondering if this is a scam (they just wanted high profile bloggers to do free publicity/ advertisement for the company). I wanted to ignore the mail & move on. At the back of my mind, I can't help thinking what if there's a slightest possibility that they will really donate 20bucks to the needy? It will just takes me a few minutes to get it done, so why not?

If you're thinking the same, please do up a post on ya blog & email the page to chloe.swanson@hotelscombined.com

Spanish Village
I put a smile on Ziqi...!
Cos' our coffee session finally realises after 2 months!

Ava showered me with giggles & big smiles when I arrived at Qiqi's!
It was good that she just woke up from her nap...
I haven't seen her since CNY, time flies!!!
It took me 10 attempts to get a nice pic together.

I dedicated this afternoon to bring Mommy & Baby girl out!
So, while waiting for Mommy to get ready, God-ma babysits Ava...

Coffee Bean
Holland Village

She's such a lovely & good baby...
While Mommy & I were busy catching up, she decided to take a little break!
Time was limited but I always felt so much better after chatting with Qiqi...
You know, just to get some stuff off my chest.

---
I told Mr B to buy 4D (but he didn't leh) cos' it's rarely that I'm out w/o my digital camera.
This post is bad cos of the lousy quality pics + I ain't really in the mood to take anything with my phone.

Lunch was at Amoy Street.
A cantonese fish noodle place...
Jackie Ong is damn lousy leh, the food there sucked but it's super over priced!
2 pax cost 50+ 60 bucks.
Lousy service somemore...!!

Mr B's
Kinda obvious we didn't had a good lunch, so we switched location for a snacks & coffee.
---
Mr B. went back to office at 2.45pm.
Andrew & I had to waste our afternoon away before the next appointment.
So we headed off for 4 hours of KTV.
I wasn't really in the mood for singing....
Aloy came shortly after we started singing.
The 2 jokers can't really read Chinese.
I felt like an expert, for the 1st time!!!
I think I sang 3/4 of the time + more than 1/2 the songs are guy's songs..
Thanks Andrew huh!
Argh...!

Sun and Moon
Wheelock's Place

In the end, the 2 boys didn't go do what they were scheduled for...
& had dinner w my friends.
This was a super late bday dinner for Candie.
Hello Busy!

Lack of proper photography, haizzzz....

I think I had too much to eat in the day, or my stupid gastric acted before the meal.
I wasn't feeling hungry at all & I feel like throwing out.
So I only had some steak & a few sushi for dinner & so I skipped my fav. desserts.

Timbre

I called Mr B to send me home after school...

Pouring cats & dogs...
I have to emphasize again, I HATE raining days...!
Please stop & go away...!!!!!!!

How does my "mian pao" shoes look?
The length fits but the sides are toooooo big....

My "stone" face after a heavy brunch, before coffee...
I've finally decided to remove my nail extensions after half a year...
Now, I can try something new!
I always had long finger nails so bowling was totally out of the question.

I looked like I was praying to God b4 attempting to bowl... I've got no strength, so had to use the lightest ball!
The kids on the next lane uses the same no. 6 too.
OMG, I felt so paiseh & useless!
Wahahahhaa!!!
+
I was freezing at the bowling alley even with Andrew's jacket on!
Was it winter already...?

Aiya, just whack at the game....
The guys were being nice & humble...
They didn't put in effort playing, so the scores don't look a thousand mile away from mine.

Loser (among the guys only) buy drinks...
Thank you Andrew!

Gab & Mega arrives in SG today....
Gab didn't bring back Krispy Kreme as promised.
KNS...!
I played tour guide (for Mega) cos' Gab has work to attend to & Borg had night classes...
I was hesitant at first cos' we have communication barrier.
But at 2nd thought,
why say no to such an easy going sweetie...?
I love her dimples!
I have a thing for guys/ girls with dimples... shhh...!

I have no idea where to bring her for a nice dinner & my manicurist suggested Ah Wok for its curry fish head.
I'm not a big fan of curry, but Mega likes spicy stuff anyhows.
So here we are....!
*We both gained weight when we got ourself a bf! That's soooo bad!
1 kg= 10kg in modelling terms.
I gained 2.5kg already!

I met Mr B. for lunch after my job interview earlier on.
He was totally amazed when he saw me later in the night, cos' I just went shopping & change the whole outfit, again.
I hate wearing office attire!!!
It's worse than school uniform, trust me...!

My treat of the night.
To celebrate me going to be bummer no more,
starting coming Tues.
Details to be updated when my training starts...

The place/food is not bad lah...
I expected alittle more with the price I pay.
Especially not with houseflies swarming around my food....

I hoped Mega enjoyed the food.
Cos B & I certainly did...
We were starving when we finally left the shopping mall...
Jakarta is 1 hr behind Sg time.
---
I spotted this car at B1 carpark.
Guess who's the pretty lady driver?

My initial plan was to bring Mega to club (tt's y i chose St. James!), movies or chill out at Prive....
She was keen in partying but Gab will kill me for sure!
I got picked up by cute looking Koreans when we were partying at Jakarta.
He cannot take it leh...
Lousy eh!
Come on lah, guys should trust their own gfs right?
Enough said,
B drove all of us to ECP to meet the rest of the boys...
Boring........................!!!

"Friends" a word worn out of use,
almost devoid of meaning,
but I promise...
between us,
"Friends" will never be just a word,
but a truth.
+
Feelings that will never go away...

Missing in action:
1. Louis came meet us for dinner but had to leave early for church service.
2-4. Liang Yi/ Shi Qian/ Zhen Huan had to work.

I organised this gathering cos' our baby boy is gg into the army.
He has enlisted on Fri.
Let's keep him in prayers!

It felt like a really LONG time since we last see one another...
Distance makes the heart fonder?
In any case, we know tho. we hardly see each other now,
we are still being missed.

Probably it was a weekday...
Most of us weren't in the best condition...
Many already look tired when they arrived.

But, surely not the guys...!
---
It took us almost an hour to decide what to do after dinner.
Some prefer movie, and the others bowling/ pool.
In the end, we are back to square one!
#%)(^#@!&^*#@
KTV...!!!
wahahhaha..................
