Informal gathering

Meet up old friend for dinner today. Suppost to go for western food @ D'Fortune. But we changed it tO seafood. A very famous with crab restaurant. The only thing that we have to bear with it is TIME. May be because of me, I bring good luck to everyone. We got our seat in 5 minutes. yeah....

Their business is damn good, i think it's because of the cheap price. standard portion (3 crab, not sri lanka crab) selling at RM18 per plate. Food is not bad, just that the environment is very noisy. We have to raise up voice when talking. Went off mmediately after dinner, we can't stay long there as people will stand beside you, STRESS.....

We then went to jusco super market. It's really funny. We have been knowing each others for more than 10 years, we did went shopping together, but not super market. Funny when we discuss about the vege price, and so on.

We won't let go each others that early. Went for a drink at D'Fortune. Lime uice with sour plum to fulfilled our stomach and time from 9pm till 2am. We are tired, but happy to see each others doing well.

Found out something during our chatting. Not to mention here. Wish her all the best.

Surrender

Pissed off pissed off pissed off….everyone….Because of the renovation matter. Everyday asked for the status. Every time not satisfied of the status. Why so slow. Why they haven change the tiles, why haven paint the ceiling, why haven do this, why haven do that. Aiya…don’t know how they work, so lousy, this and that. Damn bloody pissed off when they start all the noises. , If people not paint the ceiling yet, we ca start to paint the wall, if they dirty the wall, we can use just a little bit of paint to re-paint it, what is so difficult. Don’t tell me the procedure of painting the house, I know, but if you it to be fast, we can adjust the procedure, why making noise. Those workers are not doing some stranger’s house, it’s my house, your sister’s house, your daughter’s house. You guys just worried about your own house, what about me, I started my renovation at least 3 weeks before you, please Q, just like you buying McD, KFC.

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas

Suppose not working today. But I insist to give it a try. I pick up worker at mamak shop. Bring them in with my car. Security recognized my car and they won’t stop me for checking. But they can only work without noise. I used my car to fetch stone, equipments and sand from dad’s house to my house, although it’s just 10 houses away, but the security can see what we are doing thru CCTV. I found it funny. We seem like a thief. Hahaha…..

Hubby is visiting

Yesterday 22nd
Furniture will be delay to 3pm instead of 9am. Expect my house is clean when I step in. But they disappointed me. What surprise me is not the dirt and dust; is the paint. They paint the stair area. How are we going to move the furniture to upstairs if the paint is not dry yet? Living hall is not big enough to keep all bulky items. Sigh……..

Painting like shit! Lousy…lousy…lousy..

Truck arrived at 3:30pm. I nearly fainted when I saw the truck. So big @_@.

Went to genting at 9plus till next day 7am..Surprisingly I’m not that tired…^_^ may be it’s because of you. You make up my day…

23rd
Meet up contractor for some discussion. Clean the house, shop at jaya jusco, and eat at KFC. Sound boring right. Haha…

Hubby went back Singapore after the activities…Miss miss you.

Part-Time Contractor

Yesterday is a holiday. Construction work is not allowed. Today started of my first day act as a *supervisor*. All the furniture will be arrive on Saturday. I want to make sure that they rush and clean up the place for us. I knew it’s impossible. Give them pressure, hope they can at least came out something.

Pool is still look the same as the materials is not here yet. Dust everyway. No matter how many times I mop the floor, it’s still the same – DIRTY & DUSTY.

Hubby called at 7pm to inform that all furniture has been loaded in the truck and will arrive at 9am. Quarrel with hubby because of misunderstanding. I do not know that the driver is an Indian and he don’t understand English. Question from me to hubby is *no answer*. Hubby only replied don’t know, don’t understand, I thought he simply answer me, and make me angry, we speak loud over the phone. Silly right, hubby should tell me that he is an Indian and don’t understand English. Frustrated is because of tired too.

Sorry hubby…we both tired with the works. I went back to the house for cleaning, bro and sis came to help till almost 12am.

Tired!!!!!

Early journey

Woke up at 3:48am. Ya, to avoid jam at the custom. Long holiday begin ^_^, but also will be my tired holiday at the same time @_@

I didn't plan for any holiday his year. Busying with the house. Few problem accured for my house's renovation. I felt frustrated when there are too many suggestions at the same ime for 1 thing, everyone sounds logic. Who to listen to? Everytime I tried to go with my own felling, but it's hard. Hubby it's not easy not to listen :-(

Reached kl at 830am. Went to see my house after breakfast. Pool is alright, but oscar said tiles is currently out of stocks, ok, this is not funny. I want everythings to be done by early jan, preferable before I o back to Singapore. Wet kitchen is alright but painting is really disappointed me. It's not fully paint yet you told me it's done. I'll show it to you when I see you tomorrow. Do not argue, it's not done yet. And they even painted on my lighting, this is not pro enough. No way, I will not accept such work.

Hubby teached me the way to handle this when I see osca tomorrow. And I'm so hubby, hubby i coming to KL on saturday. I'm gonna give you a big hug and kiss once I see you ^_^

Love and miss you...

When I'm old

I translated the chinese version to english version. This letter is very meaningfull, from dad to his son. Original from Mexico

When I am Old

When I’m old, It will be difference from usual
Please understand me, be patient

When I pour the soup on my cloth,
When I forgot how to tied my shoe lace,
Please recall how I teach you when you was young

When I keep repeating the word that you felt boring
Please be patient, listen to me, and do not break my sentence
When you are young
I have to repeat the story for more than million time,
Until you felled asleep

When I need your help to shower me,
Please do not blame me
Do you remember how I shower you when you were young?

When I feel lost about the new technology,
Please do not laugh at me.
Think back how I answer your every WHY patiently

When my leg are weak and can’t walk anymore,
Please lend me your hand and hold me up.
Just like the way I hold you when you are learning

When I suddenly forgot about our conversation,
Please spare me some time to recall.
Actually conversation is not important for me
So long as you were here to listen, I feel satisfied.

When you realise I’m getting old, please do not feel sad.
Understand me, support me,
Just like the way I treat you when you start to learn how to live in new life

I teach and bring you to the correct human path
Now, please walk with me till the end.
Give me your love and patient,
I will pay back with my smile
This smile frozen my love to you

当我老了

<<当我老了>> - 写给孩子的一封信

当我老了, 不再是原来的我.
请理解我, 对我有一点耐心.

当我把菜汤洒到自己的衣服上时,
当我忘记怎样系鞋带时,
请想一想当初我是如何手把手地教你.

当我一遍又一遍地重复你早已听腻的话语,
请耐心的听我说, 不要打断我.
你从小的时候,
我不得不重复那个讲过千百遍的故事,
直到你进入梦乡.

当我需要你帮我洗澡时,
请不要责备我.
还记得小时候我千方百计哄你洗澡的情形吗?

当我对新科技和新事物不知所措时,
请不要嘲笑我.
想一想当初我怎样耐心的回答你的每一个为什么.

当我由于双脚疲劳而无法行走时,
请伸出你年轻有力的手搀扶我.
就像你小时候学习走路时, 我扶你那样.

当我忽然忘记我们谈话的主题,
请给我一些时间让我回想.
其实对我来说, 谈论什么并不重要,
只要你能在一旁听我说, 我就很满足.

当你看着老去的我, 请不要伤心.
理解我, 支持我,
就像你刚开始学习如何生活时我对你那样.

当初我引导你走上人生的路,
如今请陪我走完最后的路.
给我你的爱和耐心,
我会报以感激的微笑.
这微笑中凝结着我对你无限的爱.

The fate

Christmas party today @Blue

Tent setting up at 4pm, then our turn to move all items out and placed it at the correct place. But I was out from office for about 3 hours, my laptop is sick, and need to sent down for treatment, and now hospitalize. Wondering if it can be fixed by wednesday. I need to bring home in case I have to use it.

Party started around 5plus.
Alan's spagetti is selling fast; crepes and cake was slow. May be everyone is hungry, they want filling foods. I tried one crepes with nuttela chocolate & bananas. It's so yummy. The crepes itself is tasty enough. Caroline really a good chef ^_^

Party started soon, and ended soon in our team. Team member went home 1 by 1 around 7plus. Left only myself, I suppost david and frieda was around but with their friends. Lift broke down and ginny have to walk by stair from 5th floor to 13th floor, I go down by stair to accompany her in case she faint half way *grinz*. We got cheated. The lift is working fine...aarrrggghhhh!!! Found out when we reached 13th floor.

Treat her with spagetti, crepes, salty cake, and drink from next store (CRM team). Oh ya, thanks Ginny! Thanks for your help to clean up the mess. Everyone's gone. I have to clean up everything. Asha do help before she went home, but she just put everything at rajeev's place and it's on the floor. Basically I re-pack up again.

Sometime I just hate party. Or I should said I only like certain party. I like those party that we plan, we prepare and we clean TOGETHER.

After the cleaning session. Ginny and I played at the bouncy castle. In case you don't know? Bouncy castle is really fun. You - bounce and bounce and you won't feel pain at all if you falled on it. And can jump really high. Some people who saw us must be thinking that what's wrong with this *auntie*..haha

But who care.....I'm late, hubby is waiting for more than 10 minutes...run!!!!

Sushi Tei

Meet up ex-lunch kaki for dinner @ sushi tei, vivo city. I knew their business is always good and they don't accept reservation. I went down at 6plus. Not too bad, there is only 3-4 group of ppl infront of me. I waited for about 20 minutes.

Colour plate is expensive. Don't really had much of those expensice colour plate. I had Ebi Don, and some sushi. Overall is good ^_^.

I love gathering....

Dinner @ his house

who is his? my hubby lar!!

Actually hubby didn't called me earlier to his house till he reached home, I was on my way home (somerset station) at that time. He said his mom is asking about me. I squeeze in and out, and take the train back to citi hall. But I realised I need to bring a warmer to the office tomorrow, I looks like an idiot, holding my laptop, standing at the door, but no boarding. I trying to get hubby by calling him, but he was on the phone. Train's gone. Finally he called me and comfort me that not to worry, he will fetch me home then go to his house again. I then felt myself so silly. I should have thought of his kindness to me...

After dinner. hubby, his mom and of course me going back to my sembwang home, main purpose is to bring the warmer and my cloths and bring some other stuffs that need to pack. Have to send back to malaysia home by truck next 2 weeks.

While on the way back to hubby's house. we then discuss about chinese new year. they will be resting in malaysia home, and how to prepare extra bed this and that..His mom suddently ask me when I usually go back kl during CNY. and she ask me to stay with them for the reunion dinner..oh, actually I felt surprise, because it's too suddent but I have reject her, because I haven married yet, I must go back to my family for reunion dinner, this is the most important dinner in my heart.

Packed all the stuffs into boxes. Aunty took out a lots of new things to us such as bowl, cups. She must be very happy because she cleared one of her cupboard..^_^

Pinata preparation

Blue Christmas party is on 14th december. each department have to come out idea of foods and games. Asha and I have dolled up our pinatas.

It look like this....funny right

Congrat!

Good news from Deny. Congratulation!!!

But I'm stress when I counted that my Q4 and yearly QBR report is during her maternity leave. Suddently feel like tender.

Stress.....silly right

Yummy dimsun, tired sunday

Woke up in the morning. Hubby is still sleeping but I decided to wake him up..I don't care...lol..I know I'm bad...

Jimmy called and ask what is our plan for today, they are boring at home now. What!! They said wanted to rest at home and we cancelled our trip to BP, now complaint boring. Sound ridiculous...

Went to store for some settlement of electric problem. I was starving. Nasi lemak to stop the growling in my stomach. Unsatisfied breakfast make me sad. Used to be nice but they have changed the chef may be but the prata quite nice, I regret...I should have order the same food as hubby :-(

Went back to sembawang in the afternoon to pick them up. Lunch at keppel country club. The dim sum is really fresh. the seafood, meat are fresh. Won't have the *freezing* taste on the meat. Price is also reasonable, service is not too bad, environment is quiet and peace. I have short listed this place for our wedding dinner (provided that hubby agree to have wedding dinner in singapore). Tentatively set to travel instead of arrange wedding dinner in Singapore..

Flee market @ China Square. Hubby can't remember the way to that building, and we ended up walked a big round to reach there. I'm half dying. I didn't contribute any in flee market, it's because I found nothing is suitable me. Too bad...but it's a good experience. They do sell something interesting but we decided not to buy due to the percentage of *use* is low.

Dinner at S21 near sembawang. Satay and Rojak to comfort my tiredness.

Cutie Elephant

Mcdonald big breakfast start of the saturday. I had McMuffin set and actually I don't really like it. I'm that kind of traditional human who think that breakfast must be something like noodle, nasi lemak, prata and Definitely not burger.

Plan to go BP on sat, especially shop for frog or hippo for our pool. Hubby's car is not fixed yet, so we have to sort of depend on my sis. If they are ok, then we'll go. But sis prefer to rest at home on sunday. Ended up cancelled our BP's plan.

Went to far east flora, look for the *animal stone*. I found frog, but looks very ugly, cheapskate, and over price $50.90, and the size is to small. Hubby still asked me to buy that..OMG, what's wrong with him. Then we went to upper thomson road, there are few more florist shop, can try our luck. Haha...I finally found, it's not frog or hippo, it's elephant. I knew, they import from Thailand. I saw this when I traveled to ChiangMai last year. They are so cute and looks playful. I bought 2 difference look and cost me $65 each.
Cute right?

Shopping @ Ikea

Hubby fetched me at 6plus at my working place, it was raining and many cars at the drop off point. I ran to the pick up area because waiting is not allowed. I feel stress everytime when hubby fetching me home..@_@

We went shopping at Ikea, look out blind for my pool ^_^. Bought floor mat for my new house, 8pcs of mug, glass for flower. Everything is going to bring back on my next trip home which is in another 1.5 weeks more...Yeah, I'm looking forward now..

We went to Ikea food court just for finder food - chicken wing. I had it last time and it was so tasty. But this time was so oily and the taste is dropped. I regret....No more Ikea chicken..please....

Reached home around 830pm. Hubby's mom was at home and she is really that kind of 24hrs mommy. Everytime when she saw us back from outside, she will straightaway go to the kitchen and prepare our dinner. Actually I also quite scared when she prepare for us, she will scope a lot of steam rice to us. Do I look like a *food hunter*?

Last time I scope back half of the amount of steam rice into rice cooker (she was there), then she's so funny, in order to finish the rice, she scoped thr rice into hubby's bold (double serving)and press it down so that it won't looks like a lot. I planned to tell hubby when he come, in the end he found out before I told him..lol.. No wonder hubby *fat fat*..the way of being *feeding* is OVER....

Must cut down k....

Google party

Google party today @ Muse bar.

Went off at 6plus, took a cab there. We reached there quite early. It's boring. I don't like the food there. Cheese in mini tomatoes, satay chicken, mini burger, prawn, mini cheese with fruits (don't know what is that call) and beverages beer, red and white wine, and fruit punch.

nothing much to do, I don't know anybody there, I'm there like an idiot. I looked funny sitting alone.

A guy from Lenovo approached to me, he also boring waiting for friends to come, waiting for foods to be served. We chit chat a bit then they came back from somewhere.

I stayed untill 8plus then leave the boring place. I got a google mug and some shristmas candy as souvenier. I like that mug.

Start again

I start back my jogging session again. Plan to climb mount kota kinabalu next year with my athlete gangs. I need to work out my energy and whatever...

And of course, hubby is disturbing about my body shape..ya ya...I have gained weight.

Will go for jogging everyday k...I will work out..and jog for longer time...

tiring........

Sick @home

Was sick. Didn't report to work today.

Spent spent spent

Meet up Oscar on friday (she is my contractor). Yes, a women. She is quite nice. She wanted to bring me and shop those lighting @ her friend's shop near eunos mrt station. But end up cancelled the shopping because of some reason, she couldn't drive her car into Singapore, she just parked in JB.

YA...It's JB, the dangerous place. Although I borned in Malaysia, but I do scared of JB, a place that is famous with *criminal* cases such as robber, rape cases..

We meet at woodland custom. She waited me for at least 40 minutes due to the JAM at the custom. I can't take it and I don't understand why those people can travel in and out everyday. It's really jam like hell. The custom uncle act really slow, the lane beside me 30% faster than our lane. Everytime I choosed the wrong lane to Q. so dumb....

I felt so sorry for her, she is so thirsty yet do not know that custom do have machine selling drink near the toilet. She waited at another end. We walk across the bridge to malaysia. Everyone was so rush and we are basically take our own sweet time, it's dangerous to walk beside the road, what if people rob your bag, or what if you are unbalance and fall on the road, and they can't brake immediately. I really scared of the traffic, all goes so fast. Finally we reached malaysia custom.

Another thing to worried again. She parked the car at metro building which not really near to the custom. We have to walk and that places is one of the famous of *rob* cases in JB area. I carried backpack and a pouch. I should have kept my pouch into my backpack before I enter malaysia. It's too late to do anything while we are actually walking at the pedestrian path. As for oscar, she is carrying a sling bag which is quite dangerous. she do hug the bag but I'm so worried.

After 15minutes walk, we finally reached metro car pack. Wanted to drive out from that building, but the building structure is so dumb, have to drive up to 4th floor. for what? Make payment. I even skip my dinner just to leave this area as soon as we can.

I felt better after the we enter into express way. It's definitely safer than in JB town area. *This is just my personal point of view* After 4 hours finally we reached KL. My home.


Saturday (1 Dec 2007)
Woke up early in the morning. After brekfast, went to my new house. I have an appointment with the mr. curtain. I hope those colours and design I choosed is nice and looks grand when put up. And it's not cheap too. I spent about 3 hours to make decision on my curtain. As for the price, I shouldn't mentioned in public. A

After that, me and my sister rush doen to puchong to buy lighting as my brother already waited for more than 1 hour. jam at some area caused us even late. I haven eat my lunch yet. hot, tired and hungry to describe that situation. Brother was kept calling and checked our position. I knew he's angry. I don't dare to scold back him because it's our faulth. I can understand him but my sis was difference, she asked me to tell bro stop calling and chasing..wow.... I don't dare to say that.

Met up with bro, he brought us to 3 stores. Sis went home after a while cos of hungry and tired. I have no choice, I must done my shopping list today. I bought many lights and fan, basically is alomost the whole house. Still short of may be 1-2 lights. Not hurry for that, I can slowly crab it next round.

By the time we reached home is about 7plus. I still have to shop for air-con. I rush out before the shop close at 10pm after my dinner. I went to my friend's shop, the sale people is not professional and the price that they offer is out of my budget, then I proceed to another shop which just next to it. Found some cheap air-con *carrier* for room 2 & 3, and *mitsubishi* for my bedroom. But I haven confirm yet because I have to check the electricity guy on sunday. I went home after that. Reached home at 10plus, shower and sleep.


Sunday (2 Dec 2007)
Woke up around 8 in the morning. I have appointment with the electricity guy in the afternoon. I got shock when he told me the extimated cost to do all the lighting points. OK, No one can run away from this cost. Well...save more, cut down monthly expenses ^_^

I asked dad not to buy my coach ticket back to SG bcos I don't know whether I can finish all my task within these 2 days. Well, Now I know I can do it, but I do believe that *rushing work* might turn out *not so good quality* and *higher price*. I choose not to think about it. Pray that it's look nice and good.

I went down to the bus station at 6plus with my backpack, I thought 1 person ticket is easily to get; but I'm wrong, the bus that I like to take is full on that day. I walk to others bus company, either full or very late. But I don't wish to take leave on monday too....In the end, I pay 10 ringgit more than usual price and get a bus ticket at 930pm. I went home after that (dad is waiting), had dinner with my family.

Reached SG at 2am. Hubby fetch me at jurong area. I slept all the way till Singapore...shiok
