We attended a wedding show today @ Marina Mandarin. Initially I was not very unhappy as I still can’t over it (ie. I still need to ROM first in Feb 08).
The wedding gowns are nice but he’s was not interested to look at the bridal studio stuff yet. No dates available for us in that hotel. So we look forward to attending the next one at Meritus Mandarin the next day.
Good thing is that we got our wedding band today after shopping for 2-3 hrs.
Today, we just went to the wedding show at Bugis & i gotta know that my company will incorporate the AWS into our montly pay.
Knowing that my monthly pay will increase, he got panic & wanted to register for marriage ASAP (in Jan 08 loh!!) so that we are eligible for the HDB loan or housing grant.
I was abit pissed initially as I had told him that I want to do the register & customary on the same day. Just because of the change in salary scale…I have to take it?? Ayy…I haven’t prepare enough mentally & physically leh.
What the heck!! I may need to give in just to try to get the grant which is actually alot (abt $40K)…but no guarantee that we will find the a flat that we like by before the expiry of the HLE and our salary will more than $8000 soon.
I shall see the nightmare #2, 3, 4…..coming. Will it happen to many couples?
Dear Joey This year you are 18 yrs old and you are have not passed your O levels. Under normal circumstances, a person will be taking A levels or in 2nd year of Poly at 18 yrs old. Please think abt it…
I’m sorry that we (the family) had hardly showered you with much love, attention, care & concern as we have our own agenda and are busy with work & other personal stuff. Mom & Dad are old alread, they are not educated, they did not control you much and they only know how to pampered you with the material gadgets. This is not the right way!! I beg you to think abt yourself & your parents.
Our parents are aging and not in good health. We are unable to take care of you forever. Your friends will not be with you forever.
I hope tat you’ll
I know I’m not a good sister & always ignore you. But I dunno why I will be fustrated and can’t stand you just bumming around & mix with those friends. I’ll try to understand you better. Let’s see if there is any improvement in ourselves in 3 months’ time.
I’ve been with my new company for almost 2 months.
It’s has been a GREAT learning experience for me, new ppl, new environment, new process, new product, new system & new procedures. A lot of things to learn & get use to it.
Ppl are nice there but they are too busy at work & have their own gang. I hardly have lunch with them recently. They will skip lunch, buy back but they seldom invite except for Jenny (colleague fr ex-company).
I have slowly learned more abt the products & systems but do have occassions careless mistakes which will in turn to be troublesome to handle to cancel the transactions or amendment.
Also, I’ve lesser time with my partner since we are working at different company now & he’s also busy with his new portfolio. Dunno if it’s good or bad. Good: Both will have more personal time. Bad: Both will have lesser chance to communicate as we seldom chat on phone too.
I hope that my colleagues will accept me & treat me better as friends. Let’s make everyone’s life GREAT!!
Aims:
- able to complete work on time & meet target
- able to leave office before 7pm
- able to stay healthy & manage stress well
- make more friends if possible (maybe difficult as I’m quite introvert)
- take up new hobby or spend more time with friends or exercise
on 26/10/07, I met my buddies for a gal nite out.
Met Connie & Janice at PS as the night was still young. Received call from Zann that she couldn’t join us…got headache. Later, Janice went home & I just bought a Chix & mushroom sausage bun @ basement 2…hmm..it’s very nice.
Connie & I walked to Robertson Walk fr PS…I ate the bun on the way while the street was dark.
Met Imy there & we went into Double O..cover charge of $10 per pax before 10pm. Oh no….the crowd was very young…I think we are almost 10 yrs older than them. Our feet were very tired…we stood for the whole nite till 3am.
I think I’ve drunk too much. We order a jug of lychee martini, 3 juggler shooters (tasted like root-beer & red-bull), 6 sex on the beach 2 shooters, a jug of choya martini.
Later, there were guys approached us to chit chat & treated us drinks. Some were disgusting & some were nice. Finally, I had my deadly shoot of tequila shoot which made me feel giddy.
We danced till 3am & went home separately. Haha…I went home with Imy’s wallet in my bag. Luckily, she had some cash & credit card with her. I was quite drank & went to bed after my shower.
Oh no..I had a bad day the next day. Had bad headache, dizzy & vomited some liquid out. Really felt sick & restless for the whole day, guess that’s my retribution.
I promise that I will not drink so much in future & near future (though it may peanuts to someone else).
hmm… there are too many things on my mind that I need to note down
**career
Had worked with Income for 5 yrs, it’s like my 2nd home. I gotta know many friends there & it helps me to develop my competence & confidence level. I’m lucky to have many friends, superiors & colleagues whom had helped in one way or another. Really enjoy it.. gotta learn diving, wake boarding, participate in volunteer work & know my boyfriend.
Had thought of leaving as I was quite sick of handling customers..enquiries…complaints but then I get over it it. It’s just like a PMS, will feel down sometimes. But it’s just a thought..not action…did not send any resume for job application.
It’s just that I suddenly have the opportunity that I was recommended to a HR personnel who ask me to join another insurance co. *sign* Gotta make the decision to stay or leave.
Finally, I I’ve made up my mind to have a change since I’ve been thinking of changing a working environment & it’s a good opportunity to learn more insurance claims related stuff. Of course, I’m fearful of the change of environment, colleagues and I can’t meet Ronald daily (no more ‘ai xin’ breakfast).
Nevertheless, life will still go on & I can’t stay where I am forever. No matter what, just do it!
** family
1) headache headache…my bro failed his ‘N’ level, missed the chance to go ITE & doesn’t want to go for NS first. Now, he gotta study in the private sch for his ‘O’ level which I really really doubt that he can make it. Of cos, I really hope that he is matured enough to know what he wants & make it for his exams.
2) dunno what happened to my dad’s leg..got bad muscle strain, can’t walk well & need to take jab to . Already had x-ray done but doc said there is nothing wrong & only muscle strain. Hope he will get well soon.
** love life
I’m gald tat I think I’ve found the right guy though not the ideal one. We got along well & it’s getting better. hmm..talk abt marriage..he had proposed to me 2 yrs ago & I’m still single now.
At least there is minimal progress that he attempts to get a flat & his mum is gg to choose the marriage date. Anyway, this romance journey is not that smooth, something bad will happen…sickness, death of family member, change of career plan & etc..sometimes, I dunno what’s he’s thinking & what he wants.
No matter what I just know we care for each other…it’s enough, can’t ask for more…can’t be greedy.
** personal health
was diagnosed with hypertension when I did the pre-employment health assessment…now gotta take medication every morning to control the blood pressure but sometimes I will forget to take it.
dun forget…I also have high cholestrol…
well, really gotta take care of my health. My health plan is as follow:
now I’m 54kg, let’s see how will I progress in 1 month’s time.
1 Sept 2007 is our’s 3rd anniversary being together. Perhaps we are too busy, I din remember this date till the exact date when I was at his hse reading newspaper which striked me that 1st Sept was a special day.
I felt bad that day. Anyway we had a peaceful & nice day. But we weren’t feeling well that day & I had to cancelled a gathering with my ex-classmates.
this is the mark that was left on my leg…it’s his ear (hmm…does it look like a ear?) I found it amazing as I dunno ear will leave a marking on my body.
hmm…long time din update my blog already.
Today is my first lesson. My 1st experience in dealing with Tarot cards. Most of classmates had done at least 1 reading with Renae (teacher) so I’ve the least experience & still willing to pay $350 for 8 lessons. Daring hor!
The 1st lesson is more on Introduction & FAQ. She also recommended some Tarot decks to use & this website (www.wicce.com).
I brought my deck of tarot card (borrow from Ronald) but it is classified as a bad deck as the picture do not tell much story. So, I think I need to get a personal deck fr Kinokuniya.
We did our 1st reading by her using the angels card & Mythic tarot card…we need to shuffle the cards & think of 1 question (same qn for both decks). Guess what I asked?
"Should I change my job?"…I got the ‘Harmony’ from Angels decks & ‘Knight of Cup’ from Tarot deck.
The interpretation I got is:
Next lesson we will be learning Major cards.
23/12/06 - Attended Shuyen’s wedding @ Apollo Centre with my secondary sch friends. Met my friend, Jac from Australia. Din met her for a few years liaoz..
Later, we went to zouk to ‘relax’. Wow..she is super duper energetic.. she danced for the whole night. I also met Stef & Gab there…hmm haven’t been party with her for a long time too.
We left at abt 2am. Alex sent us by…luckily we stay near each other. Chin Swee -> Zion Rd -> Bt Ho Swee-> Henderson.
24/12/06 - Met my good friends for Dinner @ Hooters, Clarke Quay. Oppss…I’ve forgotten to bring the present for gift exchange. Only Zann, Connie, Imy & me had dinner together.
We din order main course…all are appetiser..mostly fried food with some salads. Later I tried their fresh oyster shooter. Hmm, it taste not bad. Abit disappointed as we din see the Hooter girls dance performance.
Later we adjourn to the Clinic’s chillout bar. Oh…it’s super duper cold there. We waited there for 2 hrs for Chirstine & Jelene to arrive. We started the party with gift exchanges. We met some sexy nurse waiteress selling vodka shots for $10 each. I like the taste.
Then we went to the main hall to dance. Connie disappointed us & left early. We continue to dance, it was fun as we din party together for a long long time (Jelene is a mother of 6mth baby liao).
(grin) we met some guys & he give us a few free drinks…hmm…we still have charms hehe
We ended the party @ 2am. Zann, Imy & Jelene continue KTV @ paradize to look for Connie.
