September 1 2005

Monday, October 30th, 2006

I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO RIGHT NOW and I’m still stuck in my office. All I can do now is WAIT for my STUPID client to revert on some STUPID artwork that she shd’ve started doing HOURS ago. but NOoOOOoo! She has to wait til 5pm before she starts discussing this with the world! THIS IS SO FRUSTRATING!!!! I’m gonna call her EVERY 5 minutes from now on just to irritate the HELL outta her. URGH. Dunno wat’s wrong with clients these days. They used to be nice. Now ALL the clients we have are CRAP. Ok, almost all lah. There’re still nice ones out there. Perhaps I just have to look at their plus points lah. URGH.

My Second Entry today leh! Not exactly very proud, since I wish i was at home instead! I’ve got SO many important things to do, like start watching the MANY shows that I bought last week. Good thing tomorrow I MAY be off, so I can start on my 3rd Season of the L word.

Oh ya. Must refer back to my title as I always do for my blog entries. Why September 1 2005 ah??? Oh.. coz I was sooo bored that I decided to go see how many entries I’ve written and when my first blog entry was. SEPTEMBER 1 2005. WAH. 1 Year and nearly 1 Month liao leh! Not bad eh… Managed to write for so long and so much too. I must be really overtly talkative (yes yes, i see some of you nodding your head, and Yes, Jonathan wil probably post another “u’re damn right” post)… Hehehe..

But this year’s been great writing this post for nobody to read. It’s fun for myself to go back and read the posts that I’ve made. I used to TRY to keep a diary but my hand gets tired after writing 5 sentences and soon after I gave up. I’m glad now that the internet is so advance, i can post ONLINE. Hmm… wait… this is stupid… then everyone can read my posts right? Now only realise too late right! No lah, I’m not stupid lah. Watever I write has a ‘read between the lines’ function just for myself. So watever I type here is just a source of reminder for me whenever i read back. Hehehe…

Also, I’m glad i can share with my frens (or whoever who can sit thru reading my nonsense) about my life easily, not that I dun talk a lot while i’m with them lah, but this is an avenue for me to let out without feeling guilty of someone listening to me without getting anything in return.

To all those who have been reading my blogs faithfully, this is a GREAT BIG THANKS to you. And since we’re being so sentimental, i’d like to thank the VERY few ppl who have posted comments on my blog: Jessie being the first, Audrey being the sweetest, and Jonathan being the one that posts the most nonsense. hehehe.. U guys are great lah. Either that or too bored. hahaha.. but nevertheless, i appreciate it lah

ok. Finally the STUPID client got HER smarter client to call me.

Gotta go

A Dog named Lucky and a Black Cat

Sunday, October 29th, 2006

The weirdest thing happened to us yesterday. As i parked the car and got out to get our stuff from Red Dot to be brought back home, Lucky the neighbour’s dog walked up to us and started sniffing at us. It’s not that we’re smelly k!!! He just kept sniffing at us. hahaha.. Anyway, brought the first stack up, came back down for the smaller items, and he was still sniffing us. Then we started talkint to him. Talking to Lucky! hahaha. Anyway, we told him we going Shop n Save and asked if he wanted to follow. He started leading us! So Lucky walked with us to Shop n Save coz i had to buy my weekly stock of water. So anyway, Lucky happily walked with us and started going into Shop N Save!!! Of coz we shouted for him to come out and asked him to kindly stay outside. But NO. Lucky doesn’t take that! As soon as we entered Shop n Save, he also entered looking for us. I guess he either got distracted by something else in Shop N Save OR gave up coz when we were done shopping, he was nowhere to be found. Oh well, he’ll find his way around. Everyone knows Lucky.

So… We walked ourselves back home this time round. Keeping a lookout for the dog just in case lah, but i think he went off gallivanting nby himself as usual.

Got upstairs, there was the black cat that always hangs out outside our house when we’re playing Mahjng. This time around, the cat approached us and started rubbing itself against us! It also kept going round and round and round around us. Hmmm… so weird… I was eager to go home and bath and sleep coz of the LONG day after the Shell race, but as soon as i walked to my house to open my gate, the cat stood in front of me, waiting for me to open my door for it to enter. No choice, had to lure it down the stairs, which it nearly caused me to trip coz it kept circling around me! As soon as it started drinking the water in front of the barber shop (yes, this cat seems to be taken care of to coz it’s REALLY clean), we started up the stairs. I reached home, quickly opened the gate and shut it! Whew.

Last night was really weird. Why ah. Hmmmm… some call it luck or something good and I shall be positive and think of it that way. Another way to think about it is that I’m really smelly. and that there’s a rat in my house. Oh well. It’s pretty interesting tho if u think about it. =p

Whole Body Aching

Wednesday, October 25th, 2006

Yeap. Dunno why. Must be either not enough sleep, too much sleep or something in between.

SIANZ

Sommore today is the day after the VERY long weekend. Sighz. Good news is that Boss going off on Friday morning, means I only see him today and tomorrow. Bad news is have to work this Sunday, next Friday night and next Sunday evening. WALAU EH. Urgh. Which actually means i’ve got a few off in lieus to clear. Yeay!

Boss now blasting Kean “Everybody’s Changing”. The other boss as the boss to turn it up louder so now i’m cold and going deaf. hahaha. no lah. It’s nice, coz only one more hour left to off work. HOPEFULLY can get off on time. So demoralized to work today after the long holiday.

I think that’s what my problem is. My whole body aching coz I’ve not been working hard enough. hahaha.. Sadomasochistic man I sometimes….

Well, am looking really forward to Friday’s meeting up with the Convent gals. I bet we’ll have loads of fun. Speaking of fun, had loads of fun on the eve of Hari Raya too! Was at MOS. Actually Justin was kind enough to send me an sms to admit two ppl into MOS for free. but when i reached there, i called him and since the sms came from his name (and not MOS number), i asked him how to use… In the end, he’s SO sweet! Got us through the VIP queue and so it gave us access to the VIP rooms in the main arena and cage. Actually no diff for me lah, i din really like staying in the VIP room. Just that on the outside, they dun seem to wanna serve us plain water, so can only get it in the VIP room. Hahaha. I think i so weird, only like the VIP room coz of the plain water, but i was really thirsty that night lah, that’s why i feel like that lah.

hmm.. lemme think wat happened. Oh yea, we had a ‘tour’ of the places that reminded us of the ‘fateful’ night and then to thank the toilet auntie, and this really nice chick that helped me out that night. So coincidental to meet her there loh. Was very happy to see her. Damn, forgot to take her number! Argh. But then dun want her to think i’m lesbo or something so maybe the next time if we’re fated.

Justing was sweet again to buy us Apple Shooters at Pure. Urgh. I’m supposed to buy him a drink for the VIp thing and then he go an buy pulak. So embarrasing. Nvm. Will try it again on Friday. URGH. Hands must be faster this time around. When i went to the ladies, Lyn got a free tequila shot. my dear gal never learnt her lesson!!!! hahaha. Ok lah, one shot wun die.

Danced mostly at the Cage coz the rest either quite empty or played music that i’ve never heard before. Cage was pretty fun. I think my stamina that night quite good coz i lazed for the whole day liao. Just needed to pee a lot- must be thanks to the 1.5l Vodka Ribena i mixed from home before we entered the club. But that’s the only effect the vodka ribena had on us leh… i think i need to put in MORE alcohol the next time. Note to self noted.

had a few more free drinks around. Dunno how come but got so good lah. The only thing i din like about the night was how MOS ended its night. The last song was still pumping around, i thought we had another half hour, but before anything else, harsh lights came out and the music was cut immediately! Walau eh. Sian. But anyway, the funny part was on the way out. The MOS bouncers very cute loh, reminded me of a wedding whereby the bridal couple’s family shook hands with everyone and said thank you. The even funnier part was that one of the bouncers remembered me from the ‘fateful’ night!!! hahaha.. So cute lah.

So MOS has indeed increased its plus point in my view. Beginning to feel more comfortable. Damn! Good in some sense lah…. Does anyone know if there’s a Clubber Anonymous group i can join???

Wedding Bells!

Sunday, October 22nd, 2006

If you think what it is, No. Think again lah. It’s not MY wedding. i’m not getting married yet. Hahaha.

Anyway, Saturday was Meng Li’s wedding in Malaysia. I was looking forward to it SO much coz it meant meeting up with old friends, some of whom I’ve not met since I left Convent in 1997! So, the morning started with the tea ceremony. Meng Li looked SO cute in her lil white santarina outfit. Really looked like Santarina coz it was a short spag strap white gown with frills at the bottom, followed by a long trail (think peacock). Very cute and very daring of her to wear it but she pulled it off perfectly (of coz lah, my breast fren leh!).

So, after that was done, i went to trim my hair, went shopping a lil and then went home to rest. In the evening, had to be there around 6.15pm to help with reception. Reception was quite messy as the ppl who came were SO anxious to find out which table they were sitting. Makes me feel like I was in the immigration coz everyone was so kancheong. Hardly had time to really breathe! Anyway, on to the dinner….

We had about 3 tables of Meng Li’s old friends and I was sitting at the Church fren’s table with Chin Vei, Tan Khan, Joyce, Matthew & his wife, and Victor. Quite cool lah to be sitting with them but couldn’t talk coz the band was just behind us and the music was a lil too loud. Luckily i was sitting next to joyce so the most important person that i wanted to talk to was just next to me! Ok, the rest reading this blog, it doesn’t mean u guys were not important, just that Joyce is also my very very good fren so of coz I’d want to speak to her the most right! Not forgetting u lah, Vic, I was glad we had a chance to catch up briefly when u came over to steal Joyce’s seeat for a while. hehehe.

Took quite a lot of pics with the Convent gals and managed to catch up with all of them finally after the wedding. Went to Piccolo (the hotel’s bar or something) and made loads of noise there. hahaha.. I think amidst the whole bar, can only hear our voice. That’s such a distinct character of Convent gals- making loads of noise. So there were loads of laughter and jokes and all running thru the entire time we were there. it felt really really good to be amidst the old frens and I really hope and look forward to meeting up again this Friday man!!! MOS MOS MOS!

Finally, we left the hotel around 1am. Chin2 drove Sylvia, Jiee Teng, Ron and myself to Sylvia’s place coz her dad’s bringing us into Singapore. So sweet of her dad and her man! They wanted to drop us home but we insisted not to since where Sylvia was staying was very close to my place anyway, so they dropped us off at the cab stand to take a cab but waited till we got one! How sweet is that?! Sighz….

Yesterday, went for Swan’s wedding gown fitting. Her wedding’s the next one I’ve to look forward to coz that’s in March. And then there’s Lynnette’s wedding in September and MAYBE 2 more weddings next year (if i get invited- hahaha)

So many weddings eh? Fun but expensive, but certainly not complaining.

Die. Forgot I’m supposed to get ready to go for a meeting. running late now. Hopefully the meeting won’t take too long so that I can go my granny’s house and see my cousin before she gets to school, and then to run home and sleep so that tonite i wun be too tired for MOS!

Till then, if u’re getting married, Congrats! =) I dun think u’ll be hearing this news from me anytime soon tho!

Pink z610i!

Friday, October 20th, 2006

After the incident on Wednesday and what it kinda did to my phone, I decided it’s FINALLY time to move on. So i went and got myself the PINK SE Z610i. SO pretty, cannot tahan man!!!! It looks good and I think the functions are pretty good too (played with it a lil).

Sighz. Right now in the office. Another half hour and I’ll be off from work to make my way back to JB. Going back tonite coz tomorrow morning have to be at Meng Li’s house by 10am. Yeap yeap, finally her Malaysian wedding’s taking place. So exciteed to see some of my old frens man. Wearing my black and orangy dress again (the same one i wore for Matthew’s wedding- no time to shop lah!). It’s a pretty funky dress. My colleague says it looks like something from Star Wars. Hahaha.

Quite sleepy now. The effect from Wednesday hasn’t totally wore off and I’m still left stranded within that day (you must be pretty curious wat it is about? Hahaha.. MAYBE I’ll tell u if u ask me privately). Still very very tired. Couldn’t sleep last night coz playing with my phone so not enough rest again. HOPEFULLY tonite i can sleep well in my old room. hopefully lah. If not tomorrow i’ll look panda. EeeEee! Sommore have to be at the reception table and then go on stage. How lah. Sianz. Cross my fingers that I’ll look better tomorrow.

Still half hour left. Sianz. Wanted to take Monday off. At first Boss said it was an off day for us. Sekali, there is a STUPID event happening in 3 weeks that we haven’t settled ANYTHING yet, so have to come back! Actually, good also lah, i get an extra day credited to take off in lieu. This one easier to claim than my leave itself so i’m really looking forward to it. Looking forward to resting on Tuesday. Speaking of which, maybe shd go out on Monday hor… Anyone interested? Lemme know k!

Ok. I better go off. Time to clear my desk. It looks like someone robbed me man. All the papers everywhere! Time to clean it. Have left it like that for weeks liao. I think got dead rat beneath it all man.

Till then, Have a GREAT Deepavali and Hari Raya if i dun write by then.

My phone SO pretty!

Yesterday was a Harrowing Experience

Thursday, October 19th, 2006

I shall leave it as that. This post shall serve as a reminder to me to do things in moderation.

Wednesday Ladies’ Night!

Wednesday, October 11th, 2006

Stuck in the office now pretending to be really busy, but actually painting my nails and waiting for my fren to call me to finally get me outta this office and to party!

Sighz. Actually, got quite a lot of work to do but my brain stopped working at 6.30pm as usual, so have to push everything til tomorrow and rush thru everything then lah. hopefully i’d be able to get everything out in time. Sighz. That’s how i am these days, always procrastinating. Must be a job hazard since we always know that last minute sure got change one, so wat for plan tooo much tooo ahead right!

Anyway, am really looking forward to tonite man. Ladies night back in SG! After partying in Oz, i kinda miss the SG scene. Dunno why also, even tho the scene here seems deader than over there. hahaha. Mayb i just miss partying with my very dear gal frens lah.

Next week, we’re doing a Starhub/Hype/Sony Ericsson party. Dunno if i’ll get sued for writing this tho. hahaha.. but i think the collaterals and invites are out already anyway! This is a party that celebrates some kinda collaboration between Starhub & Hype and involves the 4 singapore idols- Taufik, Olinda, Hady & Jonathan. I’m as excited as a cucumber man. Sighz. Gonna have to deal with divas and young brats who probably think they’re good and high and mighty. Then again, i think i’m jumping the gun in my perception of them. So bad hor i… hehehe… we’ll see how and i’ll report in again next wed. The most exciting part is that it’s in velvet underground so maybe can go mambo night AGAIN next week. yeay!

Next sat’s another exciting day too! Meng Li’s Malaysian wedding. can’t wait. The wedding in oz was already so sweet, dunno how the malaysian weddding’s gonna be. Shd be really fun to catch up with all the old church and school frens. Can’t wait man!!!! Oops, i haven’t dry clean my dress yet. oh no. better remember to do that soon man. Maybe i shd shop for a dress for the tea ceremony. What am i saying man, i’m not even the bride! ARGH! ok ok. calm down calm down..

ok ok. my fren finally called. Whew. no need to think of how to look busy liao.

Time to go PARTY!!!

amsn!

Monday, October 9th, 2006

Yu Chin (my colleague) just sent me this cool link for the amsn application! Yeay! FINALLY we have emoticons and funny stuff on Apple MSN. Yeay!

Anyway, just finished the one actual work that i need to do for the day. The rest, i’m gonna leave it for now and try to concentrate harder tomorrow. hopefully none of my clients will hound me for it. sighz.

Talking to someone from the wedding in Oz (shan’t mention names). Damn funny and cute guy. Married mind u! So no funny business there lah!!!

Anyway, i’m still missing oz terribly. I’m in a dreamy state of mode and an constantly in need of sleep these few days. Must be the fact that I never slept much.. Ok for those of u who either have nothing else better to do or love me too much that u’d read this, below’s my trip in a large nutshell…

Flight out from SG to Oz was at 9pm. Meant that it was night flight. i asked for window seat and got lucky to be sitting next to a lady. So that was ok. Only that she was SUPER lazy to get up so when i wanted to go to the toilet, she would tap the lady in front to lift up the chair for me to pass through. Quite rude, this lady!!!! But anyway, i enjoyed the ride coz they had entertainment on demand, which meant that i could choose, pause, rewind, fast forward any shows that i’d like. But most of the time, i just fell alseep, that is when the STUPID baby on baord wasn’t screaming his lungs out. I wish i could just grab him and flush him donw the toilet bowl. His damn mom dunno how to entertain him. Just let him scream. i know coz they were sitting very close to me and i could see EVERYTHING! URGH

Anyway, flight arrived safely in Brisbane airport and in my eagerness to get to the train and my hostel, i forgot that i could’ve gottena free ride with my qantas air tic, so i went and bought a $12 tic! Urgh. Mistake number 1! Nvm lah. I told myself i’m on a vacation, so watever i spend on, whether wisely or otherwise, i’ll just have fun!

Train took me to Fortitude Valley’s Brunswick Station. First thing i did was ask for directions coz i felt really really lost. Some lady at some convenience store gave me some wrong directions and after walking around the same place about 4 times, i finally reach bunk, all tired! but cannot check in yet! Urgh. So i left my bags, and decided to walk to queen street mall. long long walk but i finally reached without getting lost (have loads of stories about getting lost, so will just sum it all up here. Yes, got lost a few times but it was kinda fun, altho tiring!)

hmm.. ok. at around 11am i got a call from Meng Li. She was in queen st too! So met up with her and Von and went shoe shopping for Von’s wedding shoe. Tsk tsk tsk. So last minute man he. hahaha. But he shopped really fast man. Good! So. After that, i had to head back to my bunk to check in and that’s where i got lost (enough of the lost business now). By the time i got back, i droped my bag, it was time to meet Meng Li & Von to visit the church in which they were gonna get married in. THIS CHURCH IS BEAUTIFUL! reminded me of Milano! It was the ONLY stone wall church in brisbane. u can imagine how romantic it was! (pics to come soon). then, we took a walk to see the places in which we would be doing photoshoots the next day. I was slumped by the time it was 5pm! So i told ml i’d meet her at her place later. I HAD to go back to sleep for a while. Slept for only an hour then i made my way to ml’s house. Brought my dress to be altere, to my pleasure, i lost weight! yeay! so anyway, whilst waiting for the dress to be altered, we went back to her place and i watched them practice their dance for the dinner. Finally, dress was done, so picked it up, ML & Von dropped me back at Bunk, had a coupla drinks, then went to sleep for another hour.

3am: Woke up to go to ML’s apartment for her big day. Took a cab and arrived first, so did my hair first. the hairstylist did magic on my hair man! She first curled them up then with every lil grab of the hair, she’d spray hair spray and put a clip. I felt like i was opening a hair clip shop by the time she was done, but the effect was beautiful! She made it look like it had beautiful long hair that was curly. Hehehe.. Next, on to make up. The make up wasn’t too thick, just the way i like it (but looking at some of the pics Steve sent to me, it did look like monkey’s backside at times. oh well!)… the end result of it all with my gown was amazing. hehe. felt all pretty and ready for my breast fren’s big day! Whilst waiting, we took loads of pic. Walau eh, feel like movie star and i guess that’s why my eyes are so pain now- too much flashese over the weekend!!!!

so, we started out with the church. first time meeting the best man. There were four best men and four bridesmaid. First impression: All too quiet. But then again, we were in the church when we met. hahahaha. so of coz they’d be a lil too quiet. When all the solemnization was done, it was time for the fun photo shoot. The weather was VERY hot but the shoot was fun as we went about all the different places and took pics. It turned out that the group was a fun bunch and i was laughing all the time! That helped coz the sun was SOOOO hot!!!!

We returned to the hotel to res (shan’t bored u with too much deets) and most of us fell asleep. hehehe. it was a good rest tho, coz i was more fresh for the evenin party. It was at the Stamford hotel and we had to sit on the stage at the long table. so Ang Moh-fied. but was a good experience. Just had to watch how we ate (not that i cared). hmm.. so there was the touching moments of all the speeches and such, then there was the funny moment where Von’s frens played games with them… and then there was the drinking moment where Von got really dunk. hehe. but he wasn’t the only one lah. :-p

All in all, it was fun. Von’s really sweet frens dropped me off at Bunk, i partied a lil more, then went to sleep. Wanted to wake up early for Sunday’s flea market.

11am. Woke up late! Oh no! So went down to the brunswick market. Wat a disappointment! the only comfort was the YUMMY kebab. hmm.. so in the end, i walked back to queen st mall, prob the only place i could go. walked around, went back to bunk at around 3.30pm, caught some sleep, went out at 5pm to meet with Tim (my ex-AT member) and his gf. Really cute couple. Had dinner then drinks, then they went home. Stayed on, had a coupla more drinks, then went back to sleep. how boring.

monday was fun tho! Woke up around 10am, took the train to Gold Coast, nope, not for the wat world wat world, but to this palce called Harbour Town. Yeap. U heard me right. Harbour Town. It’s the heaven for shoppers like me! It’s a HUGE place with a lot of outlets for brand names! I went crazy man. Spent like 6 hours and A LOT of money in that place. Bought so much stuff. mwahahaha. i was so crazy that i had the map of the place and made sure i walked everywhere. each time i finished one particular portion of the place, i’d mark it out. hahaha. tat’s how crazy it was.

By the time i got back to brisbane, it was around 7pm liao. grabbed some dinner, drinks, then went to pack my bag to get ready for sydney. sighz. how time flies man. i love brisbane. that won’t be the last it sees of me!

Ok. next morning, met up with ml. Luckily she called me. i was supposed to check out by 10 and she called me at 9.30. i thought it was 7 and wanted to sleep more. lucky man! scrambled for the bathroom, then went down to check out, dropped my bag and ml and i went for a walk to southbanks. nice! They have a beach right in the middle of town! heh. we found this nepalese house right in the middle of the place too, apparently it’s been there for sooo long but ml has never been there before. we took some pics and pretended we went to nepal. so funny.

Soon after, von came to fetch us to the airport. sighz. so sad man. but i was looking forward to sydney and meeting jonathan and eegs and the rest. hehehe…

Flight was really quick loh, mainly coz i fell asleep. So tired! Reached sydney, met up with Jonathan, went to the hotel and dropped all the stuff and we went off for a walk. Had sushi (of al places, sushi in oz). Quite yummy i must admit! thus startted out food trail… i think we had like krispy kremes after, and then sausages, then kebabs, and then chips and stuff. I was sooo full man (but not jonathan as he told me the other day). We fell asleep around 10pm that night, so shagged out from all the walking (we walked from my hotel all the way to sydney opera house and darling harbour etc etc)

next morning was FANTASTIC. Went to the sydney fish market for breakfast. YUMMY. altho i dun eat raw oysters, i had the baked oysters that was oh so delicious! and the lobsters and clams and prawns. Ooohh LA LA!!!! Shucks. Must not think about those coz can’t eat them now. URGH. ARGH

Ok. am i boring u? Just say if i am lah k? anyway, a lil more left only lah. went shopping (again) and bought up all the other stuff that i needed to get for ym family, went back, rested and then went to meet eegs and his frens at 3 wise monkeys. Very fun buncha ppl and very nice place to be in.

Ok. next day. time to pack and go home. had breakfast at some side cafe, sat the carousel (yes, with all the kids.. why not right? hehehe) and then had a sit in the park, stoned a while and then went back to the hotel to collect my stuff.

Thus ends the journey of the year. Sighz. back to reality. Wish i could write more but thinking about it makes me sooo sad and depressed so shal stop now. Will look forward to another vacation. Who knows, i’m really inspired now to really find something to do in oz for a longer period of time. we’ll see….

Back to reality… Sighz…

Thursday, October 5th, 2006

Am in the office now, typing this. It’s back to reality after a whole week of vacation. I’m feeling lost right now. Dun feel like working yet i THINK there’re lots to do.

Australia was fantastic. After hating it for so many years, this trip really changed my view of it. Perhaps it’s coz of the fact that i went there by myself and did everything by myself so it was really refreshing not following anyone’s schedule.

The wedding was beautiful and surreal. It’s like watching a lil girl get married since I’ve known Meng Li for so long! It was sweet and nice and I’m really happy to see her so happy. Von’s a really nice guy and i know that Meng Li will be treated so right!!! Anyway, the wedding started out at 4.30am. The preps rather. OMG. I slept only like for an hour before i had to wake up again, took my gown, drag myself downstairs and catch a cab. The clubbers were on their way home too so it was a while before i could catch a cab. It took me only 15 mins to get to where i had to go and when i reached there, i was whisked into doing my hair. VERY interesting tho!!! The stylist had to curl my hair and pin them up. Each time she picked out a lil, it was hair spray and hair pin. But the end result was BEAUTIFUL. It made my hair looked like they were longer and it kept this way throughout the day!!!! NICE! In the end of the night, when i took it off, they were still so curly. hahaha.. first time i had curly hair!

Ok.. then after hair, it was makeup time. Sighz. So much makeup to do man, but the artist was really good! At least i dun look over-made up and the end result with everything in place was just nice. I’m glad i lost a lil more weight for this day (the tailor had to sew about half an inch on both sides for me when i got to oz. YEAY!)

Started out with the church ceremony at the St John’s Chapel- the only church with stone walls. SOOOOO romantic man!!! It reminded me SO much of Italy and Milano. So, there were 4 bridesmaid and 4 best man. When u enter the church it is sooo romantic and huge, u know, the olden days kinda church. Sighz… and the priest was so stately in his garment… everything was so beautiful, right out of a picture book! After the church ceremony, we took the afternoon to go around taking the bridal pics. Very fun coz it was such a fun buncha group!!!! Everyone was just joking and laughing and stuff. It was very very hot tho, so it was kinda tiring. I was glad to be able to just nod off a lil each time i got to a couch or the car. hahahaha. i must’ve snored a few times, i reckon! So tired!!!!

In the evening, we had the wedding dinner at Stamford Hotel. very nice and cozy. It was the ang moh kinda dinner, so we sat at the long table on the stage and stuff. The speeches were really touching and funny, except mine. hahaha.. I kinda messed up mine coz i din know wat i wanted to say! I had been thinking about it for a whole month and only managed to pen down a few words the night before. Argh. So unjustifiable for a frenship so great. But nvm, i’ll make it up for her malaysian wedding dinner in October. hehehe.. hopefully by then, i’ll say something better. hehehe

So, wat did i do… hmm.. i could go on and on but it seems like i’ve been writing forever! Well, to cut short, i really shopped hard and partied harder. Australia’s atmosphere is so differeny from here. They’re really relaxed and frenly whilst it’s always stresful and uptight here. Well, most of the time it is uptight and stressful lah. hahahah. but i really had fun lah. The only problem is the food in australia. It’s either OVERTLY salty or OVERTLY sweet! How do they live like that!?!?!?!

Weather was good. Very hot in the day but really cold in the night, so i’m no complaining. hahahaha..

All in all, it was such a good trip i wish i never had to leave. I’m now just waiting for my pictures to come in before i post them up. So exciting to receive the pics. Can’t wait!!!

Will write more later about the trip itself if i ever get the inspiration again. Feeling damn lazy…

Ok. Urgh. My boss waited for me to get back to clear the office. Such is the woe of being the only gal in the office- they think u’re the maid as well. hahaha. Time to go TRY and clear the office. Sighz.
