Princess Shea

Some news to share:

Princess Shea is hospitalised.. sobz.. High Fever ah..
Got the news last evening(was planning to go gym de) but went to visit that little girl in the end..

Actually she looked fine sia.. she looked as if she is having fun..Running around, doing this and that.. hahaha.. Really enjoyed looking at her.. And her "uniform" looked so cute sia.. Didnt know they have "uniform" for children also..

She lost some weight from the last time we saw her (which is like CNY lah)But still as sweet and adorable.. (Although Miss Froggy's mum - which is Princess Shea's grandma thinks that Miss Froggy is prettier when she was younger, hahaha..) And Princess Shea's other grandma doesnt seems too happy with that comment though.. "Not pretty meh.. We got Shu Qi's mouth ah.." Shea likes to pout her mouth sia..

Okie.. Some pictures of her...













Haha.. Looking at the pictures, u know what I mean right..

A child really brings so much to a family..

Crazy Elephant

Seriously, I think there is really some big prob with my house computer.. or rather, all the computers I am using..

Photoshop just close my file by itself this morning when I was working on our website.. really pissed me off..

And now my computer is getting real hay-wire.. Argh.

Anyway, I having some serious prob myself.. hahaha, cant blame those computers right, since they are with me like almost everyday!

I'm having this super impulsive thoughts:
1) Wearing braces
2) Getting a tatoo
3) Owning a car

Other then option 2 which is like the most afforable out of the lot.. the rest need SERIOUS PLANNING.. 1 & 2 is like some serious commitment kind sia..

1) Had been feeling quite "sianz" looking at my teeth, especially when I see pple with nice straight teeth. My new PT all are wearing braces, and in just years to come, they will have a new set of STRAIGHT TEETH.. not to mention that my collegues are already wearing.. Maybe thats why, I'm super tempted bah. And with this new dentist, getting rather comfortable with visiting and getting real concern over the cleaniess of teeth (not like I wasnt lah, but was thinking, with neater teeth, will be easier to take care bah, especially during flossing) Hai~
My mum, as usual, not much comment, just say if I got the money, just go ahead. But she told me to ask my dentist though.

2) Not sure if my parents wld kill me, but i know they wld be pissed.. but who says I must let them know right.. wahahaha.. I know this is crazy lah, but just this sudden thought of having it.. especially when I know pple whom I trust and know me well to design wat I wanted.. afterall, I started thinking of having one when I was 16.. wahahaha..

3) Car! Car! Car! Hai~ who doesnt wants to own one.. Recently this car caught my eye, a check with Miss Squrriel that is an old model.. Honda Civic, but those 90s kind.. Its 2 door ya.. and if I'm not wrong, they are different versions of it, and it was like the "Sports Car" of that era.. wahahaha.. Aiya, cause thinking, New car is no need to think de, so thought old car can afford mah, and judging at my skills, also safer for me to drive old cars bah, in case of any minor accidents.. Plus, I cant probably allow myself to be laughed at over that "Highway, coming to stop" kind of driving skills forever right.. So might as well get a car to practise on lor.. then I can know roads better, then I can meet more pple.. Like, Like, Like..
My mum didnt say anything when I mentioned to her, suprising, she was quite troubled by it, cause can see that she is supportive of the idea, yet she is unwilling to.. Cause its quite a heavy responsibility.. Shall see bah.. wahahaha.. who knows..
At first I thought Miss Squrriel will support me ya.. but her final comment:" Do wear a hat too big for my own head" "thunderstorm and lighting" ah.. faintz.. Know its for my own good lah.. and only good friends will say these kind of things.. But still, so not pleasing to ears.. what to do.. its the truth mah.. well-said, but so not "well-received".. sobz..

Maybe I am getting bored with my own life bah, trying to make it more interesting by added "new elements" to my life.. Keep on "dreaming" about the above.. hahaha... dreams are meant to be for thyself...

S.S stands for Spoilt Shoes Part II

Recently, its seems that my shoes are getting lesser and lesser..
One by one, they are all leaving me.

The other day my red pair of heels "split", today, another pair (which is also in red) "open mouth" and gave way. Although this wasnt as bad as the first pair, I can still walk in it.. And this time round, Miss Penguin was with me..


Ya I know, she is supposed to be resting at home, so why is she out.. wahaha.. cause she is sick and tired of staying at home? No lah, cause she missed me too much le.. First person to meet bah, after her "long break" at home.. hehe.. actually she was here to make payments for me.. Buying some things from Isetan, and she has discount.. Seriously I shld just go apply one.. No need to trouble her everytime..

We met one of my schoolmates from Raffles while walking on the streets, and their first comment was whether she is my sister.. And when I asked her who the eldest, I got a "not so pleasing to my ears" reply..


This is how we look today.. Do I really look older? Maybe because of my skin bah, all the holes and marks.. Sobz.. I thought this hair supposed to make me look younger..

Hai~ no mood for work, was supposed to leave in a few mins time for my tooth extraction.. Then my dentist not feeling well, so have to change appt.. Dentist also human, will also fall sick.. haha.. Cant imagine I was looking forward to it. Someone who was afraid of a dental checkup can actually enjoy this.. And just days ago, were just discussing with Miss Foxy and Hippo whether to do braces.. hai~ scared.. pain sia.. and money ah..

Everything I also want, fancy this old car. A check with Miss Squrriel, she says its the old Honda Civic Sports.. not sure how much its going to be.. tempting sia..

Okie, I better get back to work..

Long Entry

I thought I was going to sleep, but guess I'm just too full to be.. Had late dinner and late dessert.. Really "ill treating" my stomach.. Its so sinful, I have no idea how much I have to work out to burn those fats man..

Had a fashion show this afternoon, and its one of my "slackiest" show so far.. Didnt have to run the event like the past, hence have more time to mingle with the Part-Timers and Models, and its real fun.. Taking stupid pictures in the toilet (which is a make-shift fitting room, and we are getting quite good at "building it" sia) and listening to the "exciting" stories from models.. But of course lah, as usual, nothing goes smoothly, TBY told me that the music "has some problems" cause its was not the continuous tracks kind, hence there were blanks in the middle.. But I am damm confirmed that the disc IS continous, cause we bought them during our recent trip! Means, sth happened and me, being not at the restaurant, has no idea whether the disc was played correctly or not.. So she says, this is wat she meant by "DETAILING" - But Dear Mrs Tan, do you know that, if you didnt had make our driver run our last min errands, the CD wld have got to me at 11am, which was my scheduled rehearsal time for sound-check, and I wld had make sure that they will be playing the right CD! But of course, it is my fault, cause at the end of the day, I am supposed to be ressponsible, anyway, someone has to take the blame..

But with the New Girl in the block.. Miss Ju is having such Mixed Feelings about it.
Shld I feel happy that I have an "Assistant" or shld I feel sad that there is competition.. She had openly mentioned to my shop collegues that she is eyeing MY JOB and MY PAY.. and SHE WANTS MY JOB and MY PAY.. I mean come on lah.. It took me a bloody 2 years to get this far lor.. Who she thinks she is.. ( I know I am a total bitch, but its just to arghhhh)Ya, my job is so "glam, glam" right.. get to meet pple, get to dress up, get to eat good fod, get driven around.. Thats complete "surface" huh.. wait till she see the shit.. The best part is, everytime she will "praise" me at how good I am, and telling me how Stress she wld be if she were in my shoes, and there she is saying those things behind me.. Seriously, I rather u tell me straight in the face that U ARE DYING TO HAVE MY JOB..

I chop my hair, she went to do the same..
I bought a $15 watch, she went to buy the EXACT same one..
I went to rebond my hair, she says she also want to do so.. (luckily i am more financially able)
So now, I supposely went to start a new craze - FALSE EYELASHES, lets see huh, will keep you guys updated.. (Actually, my stylist suggested for me to "play" with it lah, this way, look more dressed up and effort, and its really quite fun)
Okie, maybe I am getting abit sensitive on this, ahem - "Following", but, ermmmmm.. NVM lah.. Shall see..

Its actually quite tough coping with the LOVE-HATE relationship with my Boss, and now this "competition".. Seriously dont know how..
One of my best friend commented about my "behaviour" with my boss:
1) Considered quite rude ya
2) I'm getting complacent with myself
3) I am taking my boss for granted
4) I am testing and pushing my boss limits as in how far she can take it (my temper)
5) My atittude can never survive in a BIG Organisation..

Think and think..
1) I totally agree lah, just that, I really dont know how to "be pleasant".. everytime I see her, I just dont know how to go back to the normal self, theres alot of explanations I am waiting from her, and I believed she knows that I am waiting, and she just dont want to face it.. Thats why I am so sore about it.. True, as a boss she doesnt need to explain everything, but I bet she knows better then anyone else that, this is very much needed, if she wants it to be the same as before.. Its like some knot, waiting to be undone.. Lets see how long she wants to "escape" ya..
2) I seriously dont think so though, cause I am still getting frustrated over myself for not being able to handle certain things.. But one thing for sure is that I am getting sick and tired of my work though.. the things that I am handing.. just too wide a gap and its takes me alot of energy to "multiple-task" and overseeing so many different things at the same time.. And still have to incorporate high level of EQ and IQ.. Tiring..
3) I dont take her for granted, but I dont actually appreciate certain ways she does things. She wants to help, but always in her own ways that are not useful, and create more probs instead.. Believed me, I'm not the only one feeling this..
4) I Totally agree... Playing with fire sia..
5) Maybe, perhaps, I dont know..

Just take every step at a time bah, but for now, I am confirmed staying on, at least to Prove My SELF WORTH..

My Lazy Labour Day

Our suntan became a disappointment..

The day started off well with a late breakfast - early lunch at bedok interchange. I had cravings for the "zui kway".. yum yum.. super delicious~ and I also had the black carrot cake and my "ying yang" - soya bean milk + chin chow and the auntie was super lame.. the conversation went like this:
Auntie: You want big or small "ying yang"
Me: Erm, small de lah, scared cannot finish
Auntie: hahaha, okie, so, small "ying yang" more fun or the big "ying yang" more fun..
Me: Huh, How I know? Auntie, how can let this ask...
(The above was in chinese)

Off to Miss Hippo's hse in.. ahem, taxi - cause we not sure the buses to take, and its quite a walk to her hse ya..
Realised that I often brings "water" to the Lin's family, good for them, but not for me ya.. especially when I wanted the blazing sun..
Other then the "missing of the sun" the day went off rather well.
We had our private ktv session and a nice steamboat dinner. Miss Foxy also "introduced" me to a new HK drama - shown on channel 55. The repeat is at 11.00pm which just fits into my "free slot". But have to give some credits to Miss Hippo for her TV and SCV.. hehe

The day ended with Mr Chua coming all the way from the west to pick Miss Sotong (Central/North) and myself and Miss Foxy(east) for supper at Bedok Interchange. Realised the "Hollywood"'s store dessert failed to live up its name. Tasted kind of weird.. Its been a long time since I've last met up with Miss Sotong.. so fun.. wahaha.. enjoyed bullying Mr Chua together..

The day is over, just like that, so fast.. And its another working day tmr.
Lots of work waiting..
Palais Bazaar Shop, Lions Club Charity Show... hai~
