love. what is it?

it's an absolute stranger. i don't recognise it. do you? can you? i wouldn't recognise it even if it was staring right back at me.

how would you know you're in love? what if you're accidentally in love and you don't know? how do you know it's love? what's in a relationship anyway? what is love? how do you know you love the person? what's true love? why do they call it true love? is there a false love? what's with all the love songs? will you ever find someone who loves you as much as you love him/her? what if it's a one-sided love? wouldn't that be the saddest thing ever? but it always happens eh? look around and you'll see. why can't it be simpler? would that make the world a better place? after all, love makes the world go round, right?

where is the love?
if you ask me, there ain't no love till you make it. hahahaha

ever watched Sleepless in Seattle? you should. it's the most beautiful movie ever!!! makes you believe in love. and that there's someone out there for you... someone which will give you that magical experience. someone you know you want to spend the rest of your life with the moment your eyes meet.. you'd really just know that IS the person. that movie just wipes away all your cynicism and skepticism you ever had about finding the one.

when you are attracted to someone, it just means that your subconscious is attracted to their subconscious, subconsciously. so what we think of as fate, is actually 2 neurosis knowing that they are a perfect match.

so if that is fate, is destiny "just something we invented because we cannot stand the fact that everything that happens is accidental"?

then are the sights we see really signs? or is it just a timely conincidence?

oooohh Utt's the most yummylicious... i so love him!! i'm hooked on MTV. hahaha they're playing the videos of all my fav songs!! i can just sit here glued to the tv. cable is bad. makes me a couch potato. but tv is like a necessary evil (like guys but i'll talk about that later).

i wished my skin would hurry up and finish peeling. i can't wear lots of clothes! *sobz* and i want to go clubbing... haven't been in awhile. :|

can't believe i spent the last 6 months working and i'm still broke. sometimes i really wonder where all my money went to! it just comes and goes. i never see it for long. think my money evaporates faster than water or alcohol.

i wanna be a model. hahaha yeah i like the high life. *grin*

alrighty i gotta get out of here else i'll never make it out of the house.

if i had only 1 wish...

i want a one way ticket to somewhere and maybe i'll never come back. i just decided i'm claustrophobic and suddenly i feel that everything's clamming down on me. get me out of here...

i need a holiday... a getaway... to relax and recharge. whisk me off for a tour around the world. a mega shopping spree. how nice it would be to be able to just shop without worrying about money. shopping is therapeutic, really! best ever. i can't describe the feeling i get when i go shopping. it's like... i get all light headed and happy... and i'm almost floating. *dreamy gaze* it takes me away from reality.

a few weeks by the beach would be nice too. like the Fiji Islands... ahh crystal clear waters, lined with dazzling fine white sand. mmmm that would be life! Cela serait la vie !

friendster's like a pandora's box. it holds a treasure chest full of deep dark secrets. hahaha it's true! friendster seems to have its way of unveiling stuff. like you open pandora's box and all those funny things come out of it... things you don't want. in the same way, poking your way through friendster, you'll stumble upon stuff too!

first week of school is always the most relaxed and most awesome! yesterday was half day and i don't have lessons today and tomorrow. thursday and friday is as good as half days.. i think i only have 2 or 3 lectures on thurs and friday.

i need to even out my tan again after my skin's done with peeling. it's so eeky! i don't even know what to do with it. haven't got this sub burnt for a long time. thought my skin's seasoned to the sun already but guess 3 days of sun proved too much for it this time.

what a bum day this is turning out to be.. *yawn* i woke up not too long ago. can you believe it? heh i'm starting to wake up later and later. i've bounced right back to my bumming ways and long sleeping hours. yay! this feels right! it has to be right. how come something so right ever feel wrong! *wink*

oh shuckadoo. i'm supposed to meet jason today. he's leaving tmr. mmmm now that i think about it, i vaguely remembering him calling me sometime in the afternoon when i was sleeping. sorry j! but you didn't tell me what time i was supposed to meet you yesterday! you said you'd tell me the time but you didn't! so it ain't entirely my fault that i was still sleeping when you called... hehe

~Seperate Lives~
You called me from the room in your hotel
All full of romance for someone that you met
And telling me how sorry you were leaving so soon
And that you miss me sometimes, when you're alone in your room
Do I feel lonely too?

You have no right to ask me how I feel
You have no right to speak to me so kind
I can't go on, just holding on to times
Now that we're living separate lives

Well I have learned to let you go
And if you've lost your love for me, will you never let it show?
There was no way to compromise
So now we're living separate lives

Ooh, so typical, love leads to isolation
So you build that wall, yes you build that wall
And you make it stronger

Well you have no right to ask me how I feel
You have no right to speak to me so kind

Someday I might find myself looking in your eyes
But for now we'll go on living separate lives
Yes for now we'll go on living separate lives

tsk why doens't anyone belive me when i say i really can't be bothered with that jerk anymore and that i'm seriously not affected at all!! i know i'm unusually calm about this whole thing. well, that's coz he doesn't mean anything to me at all and i never really like him at all. after all, i did know right from the start that he was seeing someone else so i didn't allow myself to fall for the things he did. he didn't give me a good vibe and that's that. i was just playing along all the while. yeah i did become slightly disoriented when it hit me that he wasn't going to be around anymore. but that disorientation lasted for all of a few hours in the morning a few days ago.

we all know who is the one which never fails to bring a smile to my face. and it ain't this guy. *wink*

i don't wanna know

Somebody said they saw you
the person you were kissin' wasn’t me
and I would never ask you
I just kept it to myself

I don’t wanna know
If your playin' me
Keep it on the low
Cause my heart can't take it anymore
And if your creepin'
please don’t let it show
Oh baby I don’t wanna know

I think about it when I hold you
When lookin' in your eyes I cant believe
I don’t need to know the truth
Baby keep it to yourself

Does she touch you better then me
Does she watch ya fall asleep
Does she show you love this way
And the things you do to me
If you are better off that way
Baby all that I can say
Is go on and do your thing and don’t come back to me

I know where your whereabouts
Or how your movin'
I know when you in the house
Or when your cruising
Its been proven
My love you abusing
I can't understand how a gal got you choosing
Undecided, I came and provided my undivided
But you came and denied it
Don’t even try it
I know when you lying
Don’t even do that
I know why you crying
Im not applyin' no pressure
Just wanna let you know
that I don’t wanna let you go
and I don’t wanna let you leave
Can't say I didn't let you breathe

stumbled upon something which left me seething with anger, recoiling in disgust and utterly speechless. they are like together now. i can't believe it. he's such a scum! i'm so angry now, words alone cannot describe how furious i am!!! *clenched fists* i need a punching bag. WHAT DID HE THINK HE WAS DOING!! WHAT DOES HE TAKE ME FOR!! *scowls* i mean, he was going out with her way way way way way before he even knew me. even way before last year! don't ask me how i know. i just know. nope i haven't spoken to him at all. neither did i ask anyone. these things just fell into pieces in front of me. (told ya i have a thing for these kind of stuff)

why even bother to spend so much time with me! this whole thing doesn't make any sense whichever way i look at it. and it's so abrupt. didn't see it coming at all! actually i knew all along that he was seeing another gal. it's just that i couldn't be bothered to ask him. did he actually believed that i was so dumb? duh! sometimes, what i don't say doesn't mean i don't know. it's really just coz i can't be bothered to talk about it. well if he was a little smarter, he would have smelt a rat coz i was asking him questions like so what will you do if you found out your girlfriend was seeing somebody else? and plus i was starting to be more aloof than i already was. more nonchalant too.. (well maybe he did sense it, that's why he went for the other gal. hahaha my coolness was more than he could handle)

tsk. guys. ppffft. just when you thought they couldn't get any dumber and be more of a jerk.

i want you to know all i see is you

mmm the medication's making me all groggy and sleepy. my head feels heavy and i feel immobilised. i've been slipping in and out of consciousness the whole afternoon. don't know what time it is, don't know what's happening. i only know i keep sleeping and my dreams come and go. they don't make any sense. some of them even seem so real. it isn't till i wake that i realised it was all just a dream. pinch me.

dreamt of him and that he just got his black subaru wrx sti. in my dream, he messaged me. somehow it seemed real then something jolted me and i woke up coz it didn't make sense. even in my dream i know he wouldn't message me.

my brain feels all cobwebby now. can't shake it away. sleep is good. it whisks you away to some faraway land where everything is perfect. white fluffy clouds. pink candy floss. little children on merry-go-rounds. i could sleep forever.

did you know...

women who're single tend to be among the most intelligent and highly educated people around, while the opposite is true with the men - the ones who remain single tend to be lowly educated and erm, IQ-challanged.

(got that from this month's issue of CLEO. hehe)

i have a funny feeling that j might have told reg what happened the last time at zouk. if he did, then it pretty much explains why the sudden change in reg's attitude. if he really did tell him (which i think it's highly possible, going by who he feels he owes his loyalty to), then i'm really asking for it.

haha don't know why but it seems so funny now. i ain't half as upset if his change in attitude is the result of what i said last time. i'll be more upset if it was coz of the other gal he was seeing before me. don't understand me? hahaha oh well, just live with it. i don't even understand myself!

today's a super pamper thyself day! got myself a mani, pedi and a massage. awesome! yay!!!

didn't go to work again coz i'm still feeling sick. i am really sick ok! coughing my lungs out. and my voice is still crackling. this morning i felt like i was going to die. everytime i stood up, i'd feel like crumbling to the ground. ugh. and the idea of being hospitalised suddenly seemed pretty appealing to me. i'm serious! i was contemplating fainting at a hospital just so that they would hospitalise me. haha i'm getting used to slacking around. well it's about time i gave myself a break coz school starts this monday.

marianne has the funniest alien theory! her take on jeginald's sudden change in attitude? while he was in KL, he got abducted by aliens and now it's his clone that's here now. not him but his evil twin. hahahaha okaaay... marianne and her alien theory. most possible explanation to date. hahahaha

having dinner with her really cheered me up lots. thanks babe! *hugz* the last time after "my perfect stranger", we had dinner at the same place too. (and you wanted to rush home to watch tv too!! TV ADDICT! i'm going to sign you up for TVA! hahah) that's our place eh? we're always eating there.

had the most sinful food today. chocolate cake for dessert just now and macdonalds for lunch. not the best for a bad throat but the chocolate was just so tempting! a little indulgence wouldn't hurt! after all the pampering i allowed myself today, what's a piece of chocolate cake! must end the night nicely right! *grin*

Monday, July 19, 2004

i feel so terrible. my tummy is hurting from all the coughing and i'm starting to feel feverish. my throat is no longer sore but i don't know why i'm still coughing so badly!

sun kissed!

didn't feel like going to work today. called in sick (well i really am sick. been having a sore throat ever since thurs and coughing my lungs out. ugh) and decided to work on evening out my tan i got yesterday. *grin* the sun was bright and sunny this morning but i didn't succeed in getting my lazy bum down to sentosa so i thought why not just tan at home, in the garden instead! hehe after all, it's the same sun that's shining over at sentosa too! why didn't i think of tanning at home before! it's so much more convenient. ran in like every 15mins or so to take a cold shower to diffuse off the heat before braving the sun again. the afternoon sun was horrendous man! if not for the fact that i had to even out my tan, i would have given up! the great pains a gal would go to for vanity! what a price to pay! subjecting my fair skin to the stinging rays of the sun. ouch! the result? well i'm all nicely bronzed now! *grin* thoughi think my back needs another session of tanning. i gave up at 4pm. it's too hot; i can't take it anymore!

Sunday, July 18, 2004

*sigh*.... something's not right... he's been acting weird ever since he got back from KL with whoever he went with. =S i should never have agreed to do the roadshow. should have just gone for the KL trip... but what's the use of regretting now right?

anyhow, on a lighter note, i was out at sea the whole day. with my cousin, some other Citibank collegues and the yacht club people. went to watch the regatta organised by the Republic of Singapore Yacht Club. the regatta is like a sailing competition. i also didn't know what it was till today. hehe. it was fun on the yacht! with the sea spray and wind in my face, everything else just faded away. it's so so so relaxing just lying there on the deck. i felt so carefree and far away from reality! the gentle rocking of the yacht, coupled with the cool breeze soon lulled me to sleep. now i've got a golden tan! *grin* the sun was awesome! but i forgot to bring my bikini so i didn't exactly get a proper tan. wasn't expecting to be out at sea for so many hours. didn't know that we were going to watch the regatta; thought we were just going out for a short ride.

i took lots of photos but it needs to be resized before i post it here else too huge... so be patient. it's worth the wait! heh

my shopping exploits

*huge grin* yours truly hit the shops again. well not all the shops. i only did selective shopping today. could have spent a lot more! but to prevent overshopping, i gave myslef a time limit and told myself that i had to leave town by 9. ain't i a good gal? i know i have to curb this compulsive shopping disorder of mine but you can't expect me to give up shopping just like that, can you?! *pout* i'll try to cut it down bit by bit. i am trying... *innocent smile*
 
i needed to shop to snap out of the foul mood i was in so i decided i needed a new pair of black slipppers. well i ended up with a pair of jeans from french connection and 2 pairs of slippers. don't know why i need 2 pairs of slippers but 1 of them is pink and only cost me $19.90, so who cares! guess what. i didn't get black slippers at the end of the day. hahahaha. i still havent found them yet. mmm well a pair at kate spade's did catch my attention. it was hidden in a small little corner but it didn't escape my eyes! it's so retro-ish and it's so comfy too! only thing is that it costs a whooping $84! (even after discount! it's $120 before discount) that's insane, even for me. though i must admit it was very tempting. if it only looked like $120 i would have bought it. but it looks like one of those far east or heeren kinda slippers that you can get at $12-20. *sigh* so much for my black slippers.
 
hmmm still think my jeans cost a tad too much. don't remember ever paying so much for a pair of jeans before. haha on hindsight, i could have bought a pair of levi's jeans and a top for that amount. but me, being stubborn ol' me, refuse to own a pair of levi's. why? coz almost every gal on the street i see wears a pair of levi's! and i like to wear what others are wearing. i want my clothes to be different. *grin*
 
and i saw this pink tommy top. had to pull myself away from the display window so i wouldn't walk in to try it on. don't even ask how much. i've been a really good gal today. didn't even visit AX, zara, guess miss sixty and a whole lot more shops that i usually go to.  i'm so proud of myself. hahaha what good self-control i have today!

i caught The Woman in Black yesterday night. marianne had some complimentary tix. for the benefit of those who thought i meant Men in Black, The Woman in Black is a play. a really awesome one! oooh it's so scary! the story build up and the recorded sounds. (and some silly woman that kept screaming even when there was nothing! haha) the actors were so amazing! and the way the made use of the stage space was just so cleverly done! this is a MUST watch play! i shan't spoil the story by telling it here but you should really ought to catch it. it's fantastic!

at the end of the roadshow...

i'm left with no voice. *sobz*
 
finally its the end. i had fun but i'm also so so tired! by the end of the 2nd day, my throat was hurting so much. i thought i was going to lose my voice the next day! i kept popping lozenges and drinking water. surprisingly, my legs aren't even aching. i thought they would from standing the whole day!
 
so much for getting 40 applications! *sigh* i'm just not aggressive enough i guess. haha sales is definitely not for me! it's so demoralising, i tell you! what's so difficult with signing up for a credit card! *scowl*
 
i need to get out of the house today. else my mind will start wandering and i might get pissed the more i think about it.

and what did i say about candice? see! i'm always right! most unfortunately sometimes, if i may add. but i'm still right!
 
okay WAAAIIIIITT!!! hold on to your "i-told-you so"s first! i know you, you, you AND YOU can't wait! this is the moment that you've all been waiting for, RIGHT! to tell me that you knew all along that he's not a good guy. bleh! don't deny that!
 
(now i'm even more sure that he went to KL with her!)
 
what's next? hah well, i'm going to play it my way. i'm just going to play along and see how long he can 2-time. anyway there's a new guy to play with now so it doesn't really matter... somehow they just seem to fall in line eh? *grin*

oooh sneaky sneaky!!

jon's probably gonna smack me for saying this but who cares! it's so good, it's worth sharing! hahaha girls, here's a real sneaky way to kiss that guy. it's got to be the sneakies ever! learn! guys, watch out! *grin*

(guy just asked girl if she ate durians)
girl: no. smell my hand! (offers hand)
guy: (gingerly takes her hand and smells it) mmm yeah there isn't any smell.. oh well..
girl: see! told ya i really didn't eat durians! no smell! smell my breath! smell my breath!!
(then the girl leans towards the guy and just as when the unsuspecting guy is about to take a small whiff of air....)
girl: *MUACKS*

hahahahahahahaha there you go! the sneakiest kiss ever! guys, now you know! when a girl asks you to smell her breath, you better think twice. hahahhahaha get her a breathalyser, give her some mint or something instead! else don't ask her if she ate durians!

it's my first roadshow tomorrow! my first dabble in sales *grin* mmm wonder how many applications i can get! ideally would be to get each customer to sign about 4 cards (plus e-statements too!!). all i need is 10 customers and i will get 40 applications! hehe

ask me anything about citibank credit cards! hahah i should be able to answer you!

wish me luck and pray for me! goodnight.. zzzz...

Tuesday, July 13, 2004

NOW he tells me we were supposed to go KL tmr. gggrrr!!! and it becomes MY fault coz i've got roadshows to do this week. bleh. well it's his fault coz he didn't confirm with me again before he flew off to phuket! *humph* and with him it's never confirmed till the very day (well who am i to complain coz i keep changing my plans too. BUT that's not the point! hahaha) if he had confirmed with me before sunday, i would have told susan that i can't help her with the roadshows! the roadshow starts tmr and TODAY he tells me we're going KL tmr. *rolls eyes* and he insists that he did tell me that he already took leave. must have been in his dreams. so once again, the KL trip is postponed. bleh. and i start school in 2 weeks time! that's IT! no need to go for my holiday. unless i book tickets for the next flight out to phuket or koh samui. anybody wanna go with me?

he's still going KL without me (and he still thinks its MY fault!). with a FRIEND. doesn't want to tell me who. he just maintains it as "friend". "i'm going with my friend". bleh. the nameless faceless friend. i kept insisting the "friend" MUST be a girl coz he doesn't want to tell me and he's like "why can't it be a guy? keeping you in suspense is good." whatever. like i care! hah. probably candice. *rolls eyes* ok FINEEEE! ppffft!

Sunday, July 11, 2004

school starts in 2 weeks... will i ever get to go for my holiday?? *whines*

work is good for me.. here are some reasons why:
1. shopping money. (though he keeps reminding me to save...)
2. keeps my mind of certain things.. when i'm idling, my mind tends to wander.. then i'll scheme and plan. *evil grin*
3. keeps me out of trouble too...
4. kills time
5. helps me save money in a way. coz i have no time to go shopping. everyday it's just work..
6. makes me a morning person now. unfortunately!
7. i exercise! well, sort of. i have to walk for about 20mins from raffles link to millenia tower every morning so it's some sort of work out. *sheepish grin*
8. keeps me from being more of a bum than i already am
9. least i have proper eating patterns. if i'm bumming at home, chances are i'll skip lunch and get gastric.
10. makes me more polite. hahahaha i have to deal with customers now so i don't exactly have a choice! i have to be polite to them, though it's so tempting to snap back sometimes! ggrrr!
(gee, it wasn't easy thinking of those 10 reasons! only the first few were spontaneous)

Saturday, July 10, 2004

yay! finally a saturday i can sleep in. with no one to wake me up to go for breakfast or lunch.

i'm so tired... don't think i'm going to go out this weekend! next week's going to be busy busy busy. was supposed to go up to KL but now that i've got roadshows to do from wednesday to friday, KL has to be postponed again. heh i haven't told him yet. i'd really rather go to koh samui than KL. the only reason i would go to KL would be to visit alicia...

ignorance is bliss!

i don't want to think about it. i don't want to know. *covers ears and shuts eyes* leave me alone! i was doing a very good job of feigning ignorance so let me be. stop asking me questions i can't answer. don't make me think about it at all coz i don't want to. let me live in my own little world!!! in my own world, it's only me, me ane me only. the rest of the people are like passing shadows; they come and go. they can't hurt me.

i'm like a river... choosing to take the easiest path and going round obstacles. yes, JR, one day i will come to the end and get lost in the sea. but maybe my river would run dry even before it reaches the sea. evaporated to form the clouds in the sky. then coming down as rain and starting the journey all over again. maybe. just maybe. or i could get lost somewhere in between the heavens and the earth. floating water droplets in the atmosphere.

Friday, July 09, 2004

maybe i'm too cynical and skeptical for my own good. whatever he says, i just listen. i don't trust him totally and i only take what he tells me at face value. goes in one ear, goes right out through the other. it doesn't add up. and i don't care. though you can say that with the amount of time he's spending with me, he would hardly have time to 2-time. but, like i always say, a day has 24 hrs... *shrugz* i wouldn't be surprised if he's seeing another girl too. actually, i think he is. amazingly, i don't really care. guess i've been through like the worst with luke, i'm pretty immuned to just about anything right now. heh. almost unbreakable. but what can i say right? we're not exactly together. and i don't care. don't ask me how come i'm not bothered with the fact that he might be seeing someone else. it may seem impossible to you that with the time he spends with me; he wants to meet me almost 3 times a week and the rest of the time he tells me where he is, whatever for i don't know. but he could well be telling some version of the truth.

see, i'm too skeptical. i don't trust easily. giving him the benefit of the doubt, he could be telling the truth but... i still think there's more to it. i'm not bothered, neither am i affected. but then again, i'm always weirdly calm when i'm not supposed to be.

if there is such a thing as karma, then this might be my own doing. hah. what goes around does come around. it happened to me before. it will happen again. maybe it's happening right now. for what i did before, i might be getting it back. hahahaha well, then i wouldn't give her the satisfaction. i've been on both sides before and i know what it takes and how it's done *grin*

i'm zonked out. *yawn* chilled out at indochine with marianne, elaine and my cousin. we were supposed to meet for dinner but somehow ended up at the indochine at asian civilisation museum for drinks instead. hahaha! ambience was there. it's a pretty cool place to chill out! the couches were so comfy and the weather was awesome! the perfect weather to be chilling out in, under the stars! that's something i haven't done in the longest while. it seemed like ages since i last chilled out with them! i must have spent the last few weeks with reg... was like seeing him almost 3 times a week! eeks. how boring! but what am i complaining... i haven't been spending much! hah. well, it's not like i didn't offer to pay! i want to pay everytime but he just refuses. ain't my fault, right!

no one has time to go koh samui with me!!! everyone either has no money or no time. *pouts*

next week's the time for self pampering. yay! finally made an appointment for my long overdue manicure and pedicure and wax. don't care if he wants to go KL on monday/tues coz i already made my appointments. not going to wait for him to tell me his plans. it's always only 24hr notice. *rolls eyes* and he always assumes that i'm free...

school's starting in 2 weeks. time flies man! i just know i will have the "holiday hangover" and i will suffer from major inertia to get back into school mode. *sheepish grin*

Thursday, July 08, 2004

browsing through my first issue of Shape Singapore i bought today... they have pretty good stuff on getting all toned and shaped up! my aim now is to be their cover girl 1 year from now. everybody must buy ok?! then it will be a sell-out issue! hahahah! well first things first, i need to get in shape! toned abs and all! *grin*

i realised i'm saving quite a bit of money by taking bus to work! why didn't i do it before! guess sleep got the better of me. and besides, i think i'm more of a morning person now. (horror of all horrors! hahaha) i get out of bed pretty easily in the mornings and i don't even feel sleepy and tired in the afternoons! i used to feel mega sleepy after lunches but not now! in fact, time passes pretty fast at citi. maybe it's coz i'm so busy with work. i handled another supposedly nasty customer today. he was rather nice to me and didn't snap at me at all. hehe maybe i ought to consider going into the customer service line. i seem to have a knack for handling customers, and especially pleasing the nasty ones.

*yawn* there are other stuff that i want to write about but my thoughts are scattering and drifting away... remind me that i wanted to say something about me and reading. and i wanted to write about comparisons too.. i'm getting incoherent. a sign that it's time for bed... i'm outta here!

Tuesday, July 06, 2004

where is my holiday??

i need a long relaxing holiday. by the beach. waves, sunset and a cocktail. perfect! i wanna go on a holiday!! *whines* i suspect everyone's just saying okok to me just to appease me. but its only all talk. *pouts* mummy said she'll bring me to HK for a shopping trip... but now she's saying it's too hot there. my cousin said she'd go koh samui with me for a week... but she's showing no signs of taking leave and booking the tix! and i was supposed to go bangkok... that evaporated too. i guess i'm just left with a weekend trip up to KL (which isn't confirmed too...)

*sigh* so much for my massage and cocktail on the beach with the sunset in the background...

went car shopping again today after church. i like the sales guy at audi. he gave my brother and I a ride back in the A4 Cabrio, top down!! *grin* that car's not for test drive coz it's only for display in the showroom but he drove it out of the showroom (he had to move out the other 3 cars in the showroom, which brought on alot of curious stares from those there) and brought us out for a spin (well only coz my dad bought a car from him...) ahh... what a splendid sunday! he wanted to speed it down the winding road but too bad there were cars in front of us. damn, it would have been such a thrill! but it was better than nothing. speeding down the expressway was good enough. sometimes i'm easily pacified. ;) at $209k, that cabrio's quite a steal actually!

after 2 weeks of car shopping, i haven't gone to the BMW showroom yet! *pouts* actually there's nothing much i want to see. i've sat in the 3 and 5 series before. and the 320 coupe and the cabrio too... so i guess there's nothing much. but i still want to go see! *humph* Volkswagon has a pink beetle!

bumming at home on a friday night. why? coz somebody's too lazy to come on out. hah. i just knew he wouldn't meet me after dinner coz he would be too tired and lazy. tsk sometimes i wonder who's more of a bum: me or him. definitely has to be him though. he sleeps so much. (it is kinda suspicious... mmm)

my sleeping habits have seemed to changed too. i'm becoming more of a morning person and i'm sleeping early! yikes. his sleeping habits are getting to me. oh no! i can barely stay awake after 12 and so i end up sleeping really early! :s

i'm actually enjoying my work at citibank. more so than my attachment! it's pretty interesting speaking with customers.. some of them are nice, some are just plain bitchy. i speak to like a hundred over customers a day... perpetually on the phone... for an average of 9hrs/day. gee by the time i get home, the last thing i want to do is talk on the phone! if i may say so, i think i provide pretty good customer service though i have the potential to be the customer from hell. guess that's part of the reason why i am able to provide such good customer service. *grin*

a day of firsts...

for the first time since i started working at millenia tower, i took a bus to work. (okay, here's where you're supposed to say i'm good and applaud me!!) it has always been daddy sending me to work. then when he moved office, i started taking a cab. horridly expensive! especially with all the traffic jams, peak hour charges and ERP. everyday for the past few months i keep telling myself that i will try to take the bus but i never got to doing it. *sheepish grin* well, yeah i finally got irritated with all those extra charges. so this morning i woke up earlier and caught the bus. the ride wasn't too bad.. i reached exactly at 9. another first! and i didn't feel sick even though the bus ride took about 30mins (coz of the jam.. it's normally only about 15mins). i'd usually feel sick if the ride takes any longer than 15-20mins..

and i should have bought yesterday's match Portugal vs Holland. i was just telling a friend that the score would be 2-1, in Portugal's favour. don't know why i said that. i've never watched a single match of the Euro cup. so it was a really wild wild wild guess!! imagine my shock and surprise this morning when i saw the results! Portugal 2 Holland 1! *big eyes* gee if i had bought, i would have won!!! won both on the number of goals and the team! :o most of the times i would only get either the team right but seldom the number of goals! there you go! another first!
