Throbbing headache... But managed to finish my work haha~

Despite the constant throbbing in my head, I still managed to finish up my work fast.

I credit the headache to the lack of proper sleep last night. But will talk more about it later...

Last Saturday went to Sintex and really... I can't seem to walk anywhere without stepping/bumping/pushing against anyone at all! Thankfully I have my dear to hold/drag/steer me in the right direction as well as blocked all those rude people out of my way~

Might post up some photos... When I am feeling better that is...

Due to financial shortage ( I am crippled heavily till next week at least ) and perhaps also to both my dear and me bitten by the stomachache bug ( from since yesterday ), we had a sort of quarrel last night.

But I think all is well now, especially since I don't know why or how, but I fell out of bed last night while sleeping, perhaps having a nightmare or something but I don't recall about it, only remembering I gave a semi gasped and tried to grab hold of whatever part of the bed I can, and I was doing all these under semi awake situation. Dear awoke almost immediately and tried to catch hold of me ( he's really a very very light sleeper ), dragged the sleepy me onto the bed and fussed all over, trying to see if I was injured anywhere. I think I mumbled something about the toes ( I stubbed either my 4 left toes or 4 right toes ) but the drowsiness in me won and I just dozed off in the middle of his rubbing my toes when I was safely on the bed. =x

What??!!! I am very easily tired ok?! Heh... But I think he made sure I was tightly bounded to the bed before he went to sleep =x Can't blame him though, I, myself, can't remember when was the last time I fell out of bed. Actually I can remember one time but not sure if there's any similiar case in between. The last time ( that I remember ) falling out of bed while sleeping was when I was like... in 1996?

I remembered the year pretty well ( most unfortunately ) for it was a very bad fall, in more than 1 way.

After I fell and hit the left of my eye against the edge of the metal cupboard ( which was weird for usually I sleep in such a way that my legs were at the metal cupboard but that day I slept in the opposite direction ), I was sporting a pretty swollen left eye for quite a bit. But that was not why I remembered the year. Around 1 week after my "accident", the 2nd uncle that cared alot for me passed away...

But thanks to yesterday's "falling out of bed" incident, it shows that my darling is not that mad at me. All is not that well though, I had bad diarrhoea for the whole of the morning and he's complaining of bad tummyache too...

The Case of the Vanishing Blonde Culture: vanityfair.com

I have recently come across this article. Initially I thought it was just another missing person case but turns out, this prove to be an interesting one to read.

Mind you, its 5 pages long!

The P.I. did an extremely fantastic job. Awesome research work and this article probably can be made into a novel or something heehee...

Been getting lazy.. Snow ( Part 4 )

I realised I have been slacking alot last week but its a different story for this week. Been working like mad and working OT at that.

Hahaha... I realised that the only time I write my "Snow" story is during a rainy day. Right now its a thunderstorm out there, equiped with the occasional lightning sort of weather ( Yes, my ultimate hate weather if I am home alone at night and trying to sleep *It will be a different story if I am already asleep, cos then I may be snuggling under my blankets* or have the most unfortunate timing to need to head out to the open area ) plus no one seems to be around today, out or taken leave from work =x

Let me get started before I changed my mind again...

"I see, so its a love at first sight for you then?" Snow happily munched on her snacks when listening to Karina relate her story.

"Yeah... but I don't think the feeling is mutual" Karina sighed and turned around, wondering when would she meet Gareth again.

"Well, how about me accompanying you back there again this weekend?" Snow asked while getting ready to drink her coke. But she was almost choked on her drink as Karina suddenly hugged her.

"Serious?! You will come with me?!"

"Yea *Cough cough* Just don't make me choke like that! * Cough cough*"

"Sorry sorry!!!" Karina leaped up from her seat and said "Come! Let's go for shopping! I need to get a new dress, new accessories and make up. Need to do my hair as well..."

Snow smiled, got up and followed Karina for she knew that her friend would not stop talking till she got everything done.

*~*~*~*

"Dear, are we going to do anything this weekend?" Reynold was playing his PSP while laying on Snow's bed when he heard his darling suddenly spoke to him across the room.

"Hmm... I don't think so, why?" Reynold looking at Snow quizzically while she continued to work on her assignments.

Snow put down her pen and looked at Reynold "Well... You see... I sort of promise Karina I may be spending sometime with her this weekend..."

"Again? Didn't you two just met not long ago?" Reynold walked over to Snow and held her in his embrace.

"I know... But I just need to help her with some stuff that's all..."

"Stuff?"

"Yea... She fell in love with a guy and needed my company..." Snow started but Reynold cutted her off.

"Dear, sometimes, some things are best left uninterrupted. We don't know what may happen and if anything goes wrong, you might be blamed for it, you understand?"

"Yes I do, but I already gave her my word..." Snow looked pleadingly at Reynold and he gave in.

"Ok. But just this once. Only, keep in mind that I care for you that's why I am objecting..." He gave her a kiss on the forehead, but the uneasiness he was feeling, he neither show nor told Snow.

"Ok love!" Snow gave him a peck on the cheek and happily turned back to finish her work.

*~*~*~*

Think this story might take forever to finish. Cos for one thing, its not the same as my dream now and for second, I am purely lazy to think up a good story line.

Time for me to head off~

Am I a sadist or sucker for pain? A.U.D.

Been having annoying ulcers ( yes, plural form ) for like the past 3 weeks or more already???

One side recover the others came out, and they all clustered around my lower left inner lip *OUCH to the MAX!!!*

Sigh... so for the past few weeks I have been doing crazy things...

Such as ( for Week 1 and Week 2 of Annoying Ulcers Duration aka A.U.D. *OMG! I just created these words at random and when I read back what I wrote, its my own name! FML =x * ) :



Applying salt ( 1st week ) and rubbing the salt into the ulcers till they bleed ( 2nd week ).



Adding the chinese medication, watermelon powder, after handling with the salt.



Watermelon powder ( taste horrid, urgh... )



=.="" After seeing absolutely minimal results from salt and running out of the watermelon powder, I head down to the chinese medical shop near my place on Monday morning to buy the watermelon powder, just before I head to work... The shopkeeper took one look at me ( or rather, my ulcers ) and goes "Tsk... This looks bad... Come! I help you cure it!"

I gave Ray a horrified look and one more pitiful look that might put any poor puppy dripping in the rain look to shame. But Ray only replied gleefully "Heh heh... You are dead! This is gonna hurt like mad."

FML... So much for looking him for support =.=""

The shopkeeper came back with the yellow liquid medicine, usually used to apply on cuts/wounds but I KNOW IT CAN'T BE CONSUMED!!!

Looking fearfully at the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper only handed me wads of tissues and asked me to open my mouth and he poured the freaking, horrid tasting liquid onto my ulcers and asked me NOT to swallow it.

Imagine its bad enough to rub salt onto ulcers, but add that with another stinging and painful sensation... Definately chased all the drowsiness I always have in the morning.

As if that's not enough, he poured another dose once more like 4-5 minutes later... And the pain doesn't lessen either... F.Y.I. This happen at the 3rd week of the A.U.D.

After that I had to rinse before I was able to eat anything ( by then any hunger pangs were all gone, good for those on diets, except... I AM FREAKING NOT ON DIET!!! )

I was thinking lots of colorful language each time he poured the medication in.



The shopkeeper told me to take this medication, supposingly to be able to purge all "poison" out of my body.

Sigh... And its Wednesday today and still, despite following what the shopkeeper had said, the ulcers are still around bothering me.

Only difference? I gotten self torture myself to put the medication on myself and endure through the pain.

Sadist? Or sucker for pain? Stupid ulcers...

New toys!

Heh heh... Let me clarify myself before everyone thinks I went back to the little girl stage where my toys are like Polly Pocket or Barbie dolls...

Everyone at different age has a kid in them. And the term "Toys" means differently as well!

So let me present Ray and my toys from...



Tadah! Recognise the logo yet?? Guess what's inside the two bags~



Heh! That's right! My new Razer's mouse Death Adder, mouse pad Goliathus Fragged Control Edition and keyboard Lycosa Mirror.

I know... Black Widow Ultimate and Anansi are still the keyboards I want but I might reconsider BWU since its a mechanical keyboard, its pretty noisy and my darling is a light sleeper...



Close up look on our new mouse pad~



This one is the medium size mouse pad~



New mouse ( I know I gotten one previously but then I sold it~ Yet I can't get used to the normal mouse *Urgh...* So I got another one~ )



Pretty shiny glossy keyboard!



*Drooling at keyboard~*



Shiny CD with Keyboard~



Wahahaha we joined a cult???!!! =p



Keyboard and mouse with my room light switched on~



Keyboard and mouse with my room light off!! Loves them alot!



Not from Razer but its a new CPU that my dear and me have gotten! Hee...

Just to make noise abit~

Yesterday finally sorted most of the things that troubled me and I was seriously having a huge throbbing headache. Was about to head to the ladies when I found my workplace card was invalid! Access Denied!!!! Felt as if I had been slapped in the face... So angry! Called up the HR to complain but they can't do anything till the next day.

Thankfully I had a colleague whose leaving and she "freed" me like a bird from a cage. A student after school. A prisoner from jail. *Ahem... you get the idea...*

My darling surprised me by smsing me that he might be nearby. Turns out he bought the Razer stuff!!! And we met Zhong for dinner near Zhong's place. Yummy chicken chop but too bad my headache annoyed me too much to enjoy good food... *Sob*

But here's some picture of not so bad food at North Point's BBQ Chicken that I had with my darling Ray on last Sunday!



I think its some sort of chicken pasta, looks spicy but totally not spicy at all...



Black pepper chicken steak. Nothing fancy. I do like our root beer though... Ray loves so much he drank 1/4 of mine =x

That's all for now! Headache coming back again...

What. A. Day.

I had made so much calls and been rushing to and fro so much so that my legs are aching ( no, I am not having diarrhoea. ) and to make matter worst, the stupid ulcers are not clearing off!

But on the brighter tone, I finally cleared the stuff that's been bogging me down for the past week or so though... There are new problems arising and definately out of my prediction range.

Last Saturday I felt like I had spent most of my time in dear's uncle van. From the morning after awaken by dear, I had followed him rushing all over the place. First to his friend's CX house, then breakfast ( more like brunch ) for prawn noodles and afterward to his grandma's house ( to give his cousin the CPU and fetched his cousin ) before rushing to Sim Lim Tower.

All these for monitors and CPU spare parts etc. Not that I really mind though, for I was busy keeping a lookout for all the Razer's products ( unfortunately there were no Black Widow Ultimate or Anansi in all the shops we been to ).

What stunned me most was probably the price of Death Adder. I seriously did not know I had been using a S$85 mouse all along! Which probably explains why I felt annoyingly clumsy at using the normal low price range mouse. Death Adder just simply felt like another part of me, for me to command at ease, and the other mouses? Feels so detached. Ray dear has the same feeling as well, so much so that he would not spent as much time playing DOTA using normal computer mouse, as he usually would with Death Adder.

After Sim Lim Tower, we headed to Funan IT Mall's Challenger ( Ray's a member so discounts~! ). Funny thing that happened was the Funan's parking lot was like only 1.9m tall and the van dear's driving was pretty tall. He said he almost had a heart attack trying to navigate the van in the carpark. Felt like every bump we went past, there might be a chance the van's top might hit the ceiling or something. So we opt to go to elsewhere to park.

I must say, I was sporting a headache after arriving Challenger. Partly from the lack of sleep ( slept at 3am the night before ) and of the constant bass bombing in my ears. Too much speakers but most of them either too expensive but good in quality or too cheap and sux ( without bass, don't look cool or great etc ).

From there, I accompanied CX back to fix the CPU and Ray went back with his cousin to fix the monitor and speakers. Took a pretty long time too before dear came back to find me.

But the CPU was not fixed and we had to rush off ( to top up the petrol and bought some munchies, I got curry chicken puff yummy~ ) as we were meeting Max, Dianielle and Bernard at North Point for...... Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1!!

After the movie, I derived 3 different conclusions. During our dinner/supper of BBQ Stingray, hokkien mee, satay noodle, oyster omellete, BBQ chicken wings, rice, grass jelly and sugarcane drinks, I asked about all my friends' opinions on the movie. For my dear and Max ( mainly my dear! ), they couldn't care for the movie as they were just accompanying their girlfriends to watch what they wanted to watch. They just said "Great graphics effect..." and so on, but I can see that my darling is semi interested in it, just not enough to read the Harry Potter books heeheehee...

Then as for Bernard and me ( Dianielle was home by the time we had this discussion ), as a all time Harry Potter readers ( I like Harry Potter, not Daniel Radcliff, though I don't dislike Radcliff either ) we felt that the movie itself does not justify the book.

Like most of the Harry Potter movies before ( with the exception of the first two ), the director changed far too many parts of the story, like how Harry saw the house he and his parents lived in and I certainly don't remember reading Harry wanted to go back to his hometown in his own form. I only remembered he went back as an elderly guy. And that Hegwig did not

But if in the mindset of a movie goer, I'd say it was pretty well done. Pretty good graphic effects and breath taking views ( when Harry and his friends are on the run that is ).

The only thing the probably dampened the whole day was the summon dear got after we came out of the movie =x

Arrgghh... Need to head off for a while, throbbing headache coming up from handling stuff...

Lots to ponder about! And Grats!

Wowee... I spent a good few hours yesterday waiting for the stupid patch of MFO to finally ready to be downloaded and allows me to play to my heart content. But when I reached home I saw the patch was extended to 8pm.

"Nevermind, I can bath and have dinner first before I go check it out."

At least that's what I naively thought. When 8pm arrived and gone, I went to the forum in a huff to check what's dragging the gameplay.

"The patch been extended to 2300."

Or at least that's what I can see from the whole list of blah blah blahs.

*~ Imagine volcano eruption here, except in the form of Audrey's wraith ~*

Grrr... I think I might have a bit more colourful language from this point onwards, thus resulting me into heading to facebook to look for funny videos. And I found plenty, at least enough to keep me in a good mood till Ray darling arrived.

Speaking of Ray dear ♥ him lots!!!

You see, when he arrived, the patch was finally done! But I couldn't buy the pet I want * Boo hoo hoo... T.T * Cos like usual, they needed you to spend real cash to go buy ACash and I don't have a single cent of ACash on me.

Just as I was mumbling something about night ruin or somewhere along the line, dear dear went to sit in front of the computer, did alot of typing while I was brooding and watching the Korean version of Hana Yori Dango aka F4. During one of the commercials, I turned to look at what's he's busying with and guessed what?! He got me the Summer Wind Fairy!!! LOVES HIM SOOOO MUCH!!!

It's a cute little baby as compared to my fierce and mighty looking Klonk. Might post her up one of these days heehee... And I fell in love with the same wig ( yea, MFO do not believe in changing hairstyle but changing wig so you can pick and wear whatever you want ) as the one that darling had his eyes on and he used my monopoints to buy it for me ^.^

Now now, as the title said lots to ponder about, well, let me get started before I forget.

Dear is considering whether to get a new desktop or not. On my side, before 10.40am today, I was also hesistant about it. Cos I do not know when my next payment coming in etc. But after made some quick calls and calculations, I think I can safely assume my next payment will be coming in by next Friday~ SO!!!!!! I can afford to help dear pay part of whatever he needs heeheehee... This is soooo wonderful.

Next question in mind is, Anansi or Black Widow Ultimate? Should I stick to Death Adder or change to another Razer mouse? Hmm...

But I am sooo happy ( maybe cos today is Friday already? ). Now that I have like 2 jobs on hold and at least 2 more for back up, I can enjoy my weekend before stressing out on early next week. Most likely everything will be settled by next weekend ( which will be a much relief welcomed. )

I am also considering if I wanna sign up for omy.sg and should I enter nuffnang as well? Though I doubt I have like even more than 1 person reading my blog ( At least I know my belove Lyvi will be reading!! ) and thus thinking perhaps its pointless to add those in here? I don't know, someone leave a comment and let me know? Cos I am always grumbling about being moneyless and hope to earn money. But I don't have high hit rates like XiaXue ( been following her blog for years ), Cheesie or the other Audrey from 4feet9, that's why I wonder if its even worth my effort to put those ads in here =x

On a side note, I am not as good as taking care of my own looks like them wahahaha so they made the effort in keeping their blogs =p I am pure lazy =x *Start kicking myself to get me going... wherever I am going that is... Always so blur...*

Lastly, I wanna say, Congratulations to Aya aka Alyssa, Deborah Pak aka my sweet godsis and Serene ( Ray darling's friend ), all mummy to be! May you all have sweet and adorable babies!!! Hehe, I bet Mike, Josh and Charles are excited daddy to be =p

Tiring day

The day is not over but I am a little worn out. But... I am still looking forward to head home and see what's in store for today's patch in MFO!

One of the things I probably might want is the new summer fairy pet *Shhh... I don't want people to snatch from me* But the bigger problem is how to get it. Do I need ACash or in game gold?

These few days had been rainy in fact as I am typing now, the sky outside is a mixture of baby blue grey with hints of pale yellow...

Yesterday was of no difference, 'cept I woke up later than usual ( cos its a public holiday hee~ ) but had to rush out as dear and me had promised to meet up his mummy and sister and helped out in their house ( drilling etc ).

We made our first stop nearby Bukit Gombak MRT where we had our brunch, before heading down to his old home.

Dear was about to start drilling when there came a loud "MEW!". Kinda stunned his mummy and me. Turns out he's playing rearing a kitty game in his iphone and the kitty's hungry =x

Cute darling... He did most of the marking, drilling, moving about, hammering etc etc and me? I was instructed by him to feed and play with his "kitten" =x

Then we gave his mummy a lift to Kranji MRT and as he was driving off, he said "What now? Should we go home or go help my sis give out flyers?"

Naturally my reply is "Anything." As usual =p

So we headed back to find his sis, Mint, her boyfriend, Jackie and one other friend of hers.

I can't remember how many blocks we distributed ( maybe 3-4? ) but I know I am definately wearing the wrong slippers for walking up and down.

But at least I had a yummy dinner of japanese curry chicken set meal and a nice day out with my darling Ray~

Heh... Been a little wee bit lazy to take photo yesterday...

Right now a little on the edge cos as usual, wondering about work =x

Snow ( Part 3 )

Seeing that I am still in a lack of sleep state plus its gloomy and thundery outside, do not blame me if I end the story wayyyy too adruptly~

"Karina~ Yoohoo~ Karina~? Earth to Kaaaariiiinnnaaa~!!!" Snow waved her hands in front of Karina, jolting Karina out of her thoughts.

"Huh? Oh hi Snow, what's up?" Karina mentally wiped the dreamy look off her face and faced Snow.

"Here I am, trying to get your attention for the past few minutes and you are telling me you haven't listen to a word I am saying?" Snow placed her hands on her hips in mock anger before a smile creeped up her face.

"C'mon, 'fess up! You are thinking of a certain guy... By the name of... Gilbert? Gary? Gabriel? Grayson~?" Snow teased and pacing in front of her friend, pretending to recall the certain name.

"Aww, you know his name is Gareth... Opps..." Watching Karina's face turning crimsom red only made Snow's smile even bigger.

"Ah ha! I knew it! You didn't ask me to accompany you to that beauty palor just for treatment. Share the juicy details~ Where and when did you meet him hmm?? How did you know he would be there~?" Snow gleefully bounced up and down on the balls of her feet. Karina dragged Snow to a table nearby before Snow attracted more curious stares from the nearby strangers.

"Sit down or else I won't say a word... And lower your volume!!! You are embarrassing me!" Throughly red in the face now, Karina fumbled in her bag as if looking for something, wishing profusely that the blood stopped rushing to her face and trying to calm down her thumping heart.

"Kk~ Hee hee... So, where did you first met him?" Snow edged closer to Karina, not wanting to miss out anything that Karina had to say, or rather, mumbled.

"Same place as we met him..." Karina drifted off in thoughts again.

It was just another Saturday and Karina grudgingly agreed to accompany her mother to the beauty centre.

"Can't believe I am waking up like wayyyy before 10am when I could have slept in late till 12pm on a Saturday..." Karina grumbled for the umpteen times as she sank down into one of the more comfy looking sofa in the beauty centre.

"Yes my dear, I know you are being a darling and I promised you to go shopping after this, so be a sweetheart and try to make the best out of this ok honey?" Karina's mother turned to pacify her beloved daughter before instructing the lady at the counter to make things snappy.

"Yeah yeah, whatever..." Karina turned out to face the window, pondering again why had she agreed to come.

Just then, she heard a jingling of sound at the door but did not turn around till she heard a cheerful male voice saying "I am done! Anything else you needed me to help with mom? If not I will head out to meet my friends now."

Karina turned to see whose voice it belongs to and suddenly at that instant, she learnt what was the meaning of love at first sight.

An athletic build guy and a heart melting smile, Karina knew she was smittened by his cute boyish charm. She sat up, looked at her dress and tried to straighten the wrinkles on her dress that did not seem to appear till a second ago while having an internal conflict within herself, for one part of her was hoping that the guy would look at her and yet the other part of her felt shy and wondered what she should say to him if he did came over to say hi???

But another voice interrupted her thoughts before she could think any further.

"I am fine here son, go ahead then, don't be late for dinner for tonight."

"K mom, cya later~!" By the time Karina looked up again, there was another jingling sound and all she saw was the back of the guy of her dream running away from her...

*~*~*~*

K, that's all for today, I am getting a serious headache. As this dream had already happened so long ago, my memory for it is starting to fade, though the skeleton of the dream is still somewhere within me. For the later part of the story, I might add in more things, might not be from the dream anymore but rather, from my own imagination.

Haha... Half of me hoped to finish the story fast and yet, the other part of me just want to take it slow =p

Gotta run~!

Grouchy morning

Didn't sleep well last night for I kept on thinking about the flat I was living in when I was very young, rudely awoken around 6am cos my bro's alarm kept ringing in the room ( his room was just next to mine ) and that dummy was sleeping happily in the living room.

I went to his room and tried to shut it off. Turns out that I only managed to hit the snooze button for 15 minutes later it rang again. This time round I flipped on the light in his room and fiddled abit with the phone and after making pretty sure ( as sure as a sleepy person can be ), I turn off the light and went to the living room and kicked him a few times ( not hard of cos ) to wake him out and grumbled about his stupid phone and headed back to bed.

By then my mind was a little clearer and a little more unwillingly to sleep. Was contemplating whether to wake up and play MFO till its time for work or just head back to sleep. The cons of lack of sleep wins. So had to force myself to sleep and ended up in a dream/nightmare of infections/virus infiltrating human bodies and turn them into zombies. =.=" FML

And these all happened well before 8am. I was only cheered up a little when dear accompanied mummy, Dawn and me for breakfast. But we met my big aunt at the foodcourt. The sweet darling was pretty silent ( can understand why ) but nonetheless, he's the one that makes the whole morning seemed less awful.

P.S. Since I am always lazy to make up and never interested in self portrait, trying to watch me posting my own pictures up is next to impossible~

Steamboat + KTV on Sat Night out~

Headed down to Bugis with Dear Ray and Hui to meet the usual people for a night of food and relaxation. Watching dear playing Amateur Surgeon 2 and some frog lookalike thingy and trying to get the candy into the frog mouth on his iphone on the way there. The first game looks a bit painful =.=" But the frog looks so cute, pointing at its mouth when you let it wait too long or looks like about to cry if you lost/break/drop the candy.

Anyway, most of the pictures are taken after we were almost done eating. Chibi whipped out his huge, professional looking camera before I realised I forgot to take pictures =x

It was drizzling when we finally reached Bugis. Not much space as its almost full house and there were really a lot of people hanging around. Can't walked anywhere without almost knocking into someone.



Noodles cooked in Ma La ( extremely spicy till numbing ) soup. I totally could not bear to finish it as my lips were totally numb after eating like half of it... There was absolutely no soup I bet! It's probably all chili oil =.="



Snatched my dear's sprite to drink. But end up he drank my mountain dew...



Yummy tiny fried bun~ We took like 4, Serene ate 1, I took the other and dear finished both with the butter. I was looking at dear all the time, fearful that he might just eat the bowl of butter straight from the bowl without applying butter to anything else. He really loves butter =x

In the bowl there's some golden mushroom and egg but I think they were left untouched =x



Serene had lots of prawns and crabs that day! There goes my half filled mountain dew~



Lol! Jowell went to take another helping of thinly sliced pork ( we already had like 4-5 plates of this before I took this picture ). It really taste yummy, but I kept on grilled it till like its bacon and Ray kept on grumbling about it haha... End up he cooked most but after that I cooked a little in the "normal" way so its not too dry =p



Bright red gas refiller cap. But don't know why it turned orange here... Weird... Maybe its the lights...



Our pot of steaming soup... Doesn't looks very appealing in this picture but its was pretty alright...

In the middle of our steamboat dinner, some uncle was shouting at a guy, most likely around 18 or early twenties. The younger guy said something ( he's with his friends ) but the uncle just kept on spewing profanities. He was so loud almost everyone dining in the area turned to look at him. But it broke up like a few minutes later and lesser than 5 minutes after the shouting, there's a police car patrol by. I supposed the police have stepped up the security since of the recent death of a teen attacked by a group of people from a certain gang.

Anyway... We headed to a PartyWorld nearby for some KTV session!

This is by far one of the best KTV ever~



Lookie! 4 tvs, 3 for lyrics and 1 for you to choose songs etc~ There's a massage chair, a machine for massage leg ( but it doesn't seem to work ) and even a stage!



Wahahaha my catch of the day! It was in the catching machine outside. I dropped in $1 but this seal just rolled down from the hill of the soft toys and stop directly before the drop zone! Grrr...

Then my dear dropped in another $1 and he used the clamping thing to push the seal into the drop zone wahahaha...

Poor seal... Was being thrown all over the place in the KTV...



My favourite mocktail, Shirley Temple~ Sweet and yummy as always. With the machine that massage legs in the background~



Pretty multi changing color lights in the ceiling~



Random shot of the tv and the wall design~



The base of the table in front of me... I was a little bored by then...

Spot the difference Part 1:


Spot the difference Part 2:


Like I said! I'm bored!



Cute seal laying on its back! So adorable~



It looks abit angry... Maybe we shouldn't have thrown it all over...



Aww...



Little seal wanna sing as well!



Peeking out at me for help. It's being squashed by Ray dear! Heehee~

Yea I was bored in the end but its pretty fun though, the room was huge to house the 13 of us. We were there from like 9pm or 10pm till 2am. Cost around S$27 for each of us in the KTV. As for the steamboat I think its around the same price but not too sure since I wasn't paying attention when they were collecting money =x

Ciao~ Gotta run!

Snow ( Part 2 )

Feeling a little better to continue, but bear with me cos there's going to be lots of parts. And these are only the general plot, not the full story ( provided I get into the mood to turn them into full actual story ).

"Favor?" Snow sat up straighter on her bed and pressed her ear against the phone. Snow had not seen Karina for ages and to have her asking for favor was pretty much unlike her.

"Umm... Yes... You see, I got these buy one get another free voucher for some facial treatment thing from my mother but no one else seems free to go with me..." Karina trailed off, hoping Snow was not offended that she was not her first choice to go out for the treatment and hoping that Snow did not realised there was more than just facial treatment.

"Sure, sounds like fun, when?" Snow was just delighted being able to go out and meet Karina again.

"How about this weekend?" Karina was pretty relieved that Snow was too dense or naive to catch up on what she was thinking.

"Ok, update me on the time and location. I need to have my dinner now, mum's yelling..."

"K, will do. Take care!" With that Karina hang up the phone and sighed with relief...

*~*~*~*

"Karina! Over here!" Karina turned and saw Snow dressing in her usual comfortable but casual outfit and put on a smile before heading towards Snow.

"Hi Snow!"

"Woah! Why are you so dressed up for?" Snow walked around Karina, taking in her pretty, low cut black chiffon dress matched with a beautiful strappy heels.

"Ah... Nothing much, just went out with my mother... So let's go?" Trying to distract Snow, Karina tugged her towards the direction of the beauty centre.

"Hi, I am Karina, we had spoken on the phone this morning. I made a reservation for 2 at 10am?" Karina looked at the beautician behind the counter but the lady seemed too absorbed in playing her DS.

"Oh you are playing Cooking Mama 3!" Snow peered around and the lady immediately hid the DS, embarrassed by the loud exclaimation from Snow.

"Yes, may I help you?" The lady spoke with much annoyance.

Karina wrote her name on a piece of paper nearby and handed to the lady. "I spoke to you this morning? My reservation?"

"Ah yes... Please give me a moment. Take a seat over there in the meantime." The lady pointed to a bunch of comfy looking sofa and went into the back room.

Snow and Karina were giggling at the reaction of the lady when a guy walked in. Snow noticed Karina suddenly sat up and brushing the front of her dress while her vision darted to and away from the guy.

"Hmm... I think I saw the main reason for coming here..." Snow whispered softly in Karina's ear.

"Shhh!" Karina tried to cover Snow's mouth but accidently knocked over a glass of soft drink left on the table.

"Aiks!" Both girls jumped up and frantically tried cleaning up the table.

"Here, let me helped." The guy came over with tissue and mopped off the liquid.

"Err... Thanks for your help..." Karina started while Snow kept on giggling.

"How rude of me, I forget to introduce myself. Hi I am Gareth."

"Hi, I am Karina and this is Snow."

"Hi Karina, hello Snow." Karina thought Gareth might have emphasized on the last two words but decided maybe she was oversensitive.

"Karina, I think we better head back first, look at your clothes, its in a mess..."

"Oh!" Karina just noticed some of the liquid had splashed onto her expensive dress and started wiping it.

"C'mon, let's go before your dress is ruined!" Snow dragged Karina out, but Karina noticed nothing else except the eyes of Gareth looking at her direction...

*~*~*~*

Hmm... Feel like I am still not very good at writing this yet. Don't have enough emotions nor effort placed in writing this piece of story.

Ah well... Hopefully I might get into the mood of writing it the next time.

Do leave your comment on the story though!

Xiao Xue a.k.a. Little Snow

Seeing that I am still in a upset mood and I have nothing to do for now, I shall start on the dream I had a couple of days ago. Perhaps if I liked what I see here, maybe I might turn into a novel.

During the dream, I felt like at times I was watching from the side, while others, I was in Xiao Xue herself. 小雪 a.k.a Little Snow in English ( I am going to call her Snow for easier referance ) was a very clumsy girl. Judging from her and her friends age, I'd say about teens, 14-18 though might be younger cos at times she looks more like 8. Very petite in size and very slim, yet tomboyish at times.

( Shortly interrupted due to a small outburst from two angry colleagues )

I think I should start on it soon.

Snow was, as usual, happily chatting with her bunch of friends when someone came and lifted her up from behind.

"Reynold!" She half squealed in delight and hugged her boyfriend.

"What's my favourite girl doing?" asked Reynold as he gave a nod to all those that said hi to him.

"Nothing, just enjoying a conversation when you suddenly interrupted~" Snow leaned over and gave him a peck on his cheek.

She glanced at Reynold still wondering if these was just a dream. Just a few weeks ago, they were only friends, with her still having a slight crush on him.

Never would she hoped to be his girlfriend, for he was almost like the perfect guy, fantastic results both academic and sports wise. He was almost dream-like with his boyish good looks, grace and manners of an gentleman and of cos, having almost all the ladies in the school going wild over him, just lack the worship of an idol. More than 90% of the ladies in school had polled him to be the most handsome and desirable guy of the year.

As compared to him, she was anything but graceful, would be grateful if she don't tripped anywhere she goes though she smiled to the fact that she was no dummy in academic wise, just a little handicapped at sports. Pretty much of a tomboy nature, she loves nothing more to run and climb and really get dirts in her hands.

Which makes her couldn't fathom why he would actually fall for her and asked her to be his girlfriend when he did.

"Thinking about something?" Reynold pushing a loose strand of locks behind Snow's ear.

"Hmm... Yeah... Wondering what's good about me that made you fell head over heels for me. Are you blind?" Snow teased, looking up only to see him laughing good naturally.

"Yeah, blinded by your wonderful qualities you little imp" He finally let her down and hugged her tight. "But more so to not wanting others having you. Though you may not admit or even acknowledge, but you are pretty and attractive yourself."

"With what? Tripping over my 2 left feet all the time? Having the grace of a herd of elephants?"

"That's for me to know and you to find out" Reynold laughed and started to send her home.

*~*~*~*

Back at her home, Snow was laying on her bed and looking around her room when a folder on her white table caught her eyes.

It was yellowed with age and looking weird in the otherwise pretty mordern room.

Snow flipped opened and smile when she saw some notes in her handwritting scribbled inside. "Ah... The memories it brings..." She sighed happily.

Back then she was just another little camper in this particular camp just for kids like her, whose aspiration was to become a doctor.

All through that particular day, they had been assigned to look out for herbs in the forest, in case of emergencies, they might be able to recognise the needed herbs.

She had spent the whole day running all over the place, tripping over roots and acquired a few scatches and wounds but nonetheless, nothing dampened her passion and delightful mood when she finally found all that she need.

Just as she was turning in for the night, a loud clanging sound could be heard and she smelt smoke in the air!

"Oh no fire!" Snow picked her folder and ran out of her tent, rushing to the nearby river that they had been instructed the day before that should anything happen, they must immediately gathered at the river.

"Snow! Thank goodness you are alright!" Karina, her close friend hugged her tightly.

Karina's gorgerous long dark locks were in a huge tangled mess, making her looked more like a mad girl on the run.

"Yea I am ok, what happened?" Shouting among the noise of anxious chatters, Snow strained to hear what was being annouced.

"... slight fire, false alarm. Please go back to your tents and rest for tonight. " Came the counselor's tired voice.

"You brought this when there's fire??!!" Karina ridiculed, ignoring Snow's question and looking at the file that was held tightly in Snow's folded arms.

"Erm yeah... Let's head back and rest..." Embarrassed by Karina's words, Snow headed quickly back to her tent, determined not to let her friend see her blushing red face...

Flipping through the pages and and reminising the memorise, Snow almost didn't hear her phone ringing.

"Opps, hello!" Snow answered.

"Gal! What have you been doing??!! I had tried to call you so many times!!" Came the excited reply.

"Karina??!!"

"Yeah! How have you been??"

"Haha, I am fine! Was just thinking about you!"

"Nothing bad I hope!" Snow can almost see Karina sticking out her tongue.

"What's up?" Snow put her folder back to its original place.

"Actually I have a favor to ask of you..." Karina started...

*~*~*~*

Ok, enough writing for today, might continue later when I am not so hungry heh heh...

Love the weather.

"Drip drip drop.
Drip drip drop."

For those who had watched "Fairy Tale", this particular phrase is of no stranger to you. Yes, its a common phrase used by Juvia, the Rain Lady.

Ironically, today I am wearing a shirt that's almost the same color as her hair and clothes.

Why the sudden phrase?

As I was walking to work ( while thinking if there's a person I hate so much that the person won't even worth 1/8 of a second of my life and still have yet drawn any conclusion yet ) I notice the change in the humidity of the air.

The sky is in a beautiful shade of grey. The wind is blowing a little, and it started drizzling abit, not enough to dampen my mood or my clothes yet.

It's this kind of weather that I love, well, others can love the weather just before a hurricane strikes, why can't I love this type of weather?

As I was crossing the carpark, feeling the wind carassing my face, playfully weaving through my hair, as if trying to disentangle or pick any bad mood or thoughts to bring away with them.

Despite feeling a little on the down side, these little actions of the weather cheer me up a little.

The sidewalk looks unbelievably blinding bright that it hurts my eyes when staring at them, as if I am looking at the sun itself.

Feeling droplets of water tickling down my face, I felt amused.

Actually, impressed and amazed should be the right words. As always, without me having to say anything, the weather knew exactly what I am feeling and expressed them for me.

Since young till now, I am not known to be able to express my emotions to others properly ( 'cept maybe when I am blowing my top ). But always, the weather shown that it has been watching and feeling as I do and whatever I can't show, it aided me in it.

If to be able to have an irreversable wish, I wish to be a drop of rain. To see where they go after they left me, or see where they come from. It's not that I never study of the cycle of rain, but I just want to see what the rain see, from their point of view.

O.U.C.H.

Take that title and multiply it by many many times...

That is exactly what I am feeling now ( 'cept if I am a little bit more vulgar, it will be another 4 letter word starting with F ).

Why ouch?

I have 2 extremely huge and irritating ulcers on my lower left lip. If they get any bigger, they'd just merged and become one humoungous and irritating ulcer.

But no, that's not the main reason for my excruciating pain now. Maybe, part of, indirectly anyway.

I tried all sort of methods trying to rid of the ulcers but to no avail.

So, I decided ( after being tortured by them for the past few days plus getting bored and sleepy ) I would try Ray dear's method of handling ulcer.

That is to put salt on the ulcer and RUBBED THEM.

Yeap. Now you know why I am in freaking pain. I spent a freaking long time getting salt on ulcers, rubbed ( while going ouch ouch ouch and grabbing a chunkload of tissues ) and spit the residue out and rubbed again till the white of the ulcers are gone and left the ulcers looking pretty bloody.

Pretty bloody... Not bloody pretty looking either.

Now I have a mixture of conflicting feelings happening at my left jaw/gum/mouth area.

Part of it felt pain. The other part felt numb.

Pain and numb. Hard to describe. But definately very SWOLLEN and giving me a nice headache.

At least my hands went cold from all these rubbing of salt on the ulcers that they felt cool and welcoming to my throbbing headache and swollen jaw.

Hopefully the ulcers know I mean business and recover immediately.

FML.

Job woes...& beauty products~

Couple of weeks ago... No, make it just last week, I was so worried I might not have a job after my contract ended.

Now fast forward to this week.

ARRRGGGHHH!!! I have to decide whether to stay or which of the two new jobs should I accept??!!!

Hate decisions... What is the best and so on. Always takes alot out of me trying to compare this and that. K, enough of this.

Time for beauty products~

Got a little something last week. For my extremely frizzly and over-dried hair. ( No, I do not blow dry it or perm or rebond or dye it frequently. In fact I am too lazy to do any of those. )



Pretty little packages. One for frizzly hair and the other one is supposed to nourish my hair.

Been using for almost one week and I must say I quite like the result. You see, last week my hair was so bad when I went for work, I swear I can feel the static in my hair! *Shudders*

That's why I went to look for this hair product from Essentials. Bought them like S$10.90 each from Shop N Save. I am too lazy to go compare prices.

Why this particular brand? Cos I have been using the shampoo and conditioner and I quite like the scent ( since I am very very sensitive to scent as they might give me severe headache ).

Frizzly hair is not the only problem that annoys me.



Tadah! OFF WITH YOUR HEADS!!!

Heh heh... Just kidding. It's Off With Those heads aka OWTH from b.liv.

Just like the name ( nope, they are not chopping any human or animal heads ), its supposed to help you rid off black/white heads. I got the 30ml at S$69.90 at SaSa that's located in Wisma Atrium instead of the 45ml ( S$94.90 or something like that, need to double check ) cos I am still not a full believer when I first bought it.

How to be a full believer when you never use the particular product before right?

Been using it for 4.5 days and I quite like the result though won't comment till 2 weeks are up. By the way, they have this 2 weeks money back guarantee. If it don't work or you don't see a difference, you can ask for your money back hahaha... I am such a cheapskate =p



I quite like the bottle!

For OWTH, I am not the only user! You don't think I won't share ( more like be the only guinea pig ) with others right? Wahahaha...

1st night of using the OWTH :
Me: Hmm wonder if it works... ( Went to stand in front of mirror and start to apply OWTH )

Ray: For that kind of money, I can buy GTB ( golden theif bug ) gear or rent a few months worth of GR armour! ( Making noise in front of the computer )

Me: Hmph... Hmm... ( Evil thoughts start forming )

Ray, sensing something is wrong, turned and faced me.

Muhahaha too late! Start applying some OWTH on Ray's nose and forehead while he tried to squirm away with lots of "No!"

That was last Saturday.

Today morning...
I am getting ready for work and using the computer and waking up Ray.

Ray: Ain't you going to apply that stuff on my nose first?

Me ( giving a =.=" face ) : Go wash your face before I put the OWTH on you.

Totally different reaction LOL!!!

Oh well, I suppose I should be happy, cos its easier to apply on him when he's willing rather than having him fighting me off =p

Ending off with a random shot from the Wendy's located beside at Borders in Orchard Road and Ray dear's sister, Mint's toy poodle, Bubbles ( Urgh so long! ).



Ray is the guy in green and he's talking to Bernard haha...



Bubble tries to lick me wherever it can reach lol!

Watching Hunter X Hunter

Instead of running about during the long weekend ( well, I did head out during Saturday~ ), I settled for games ( My baby Seahorse has evolved to the 3rd generation! ) and watching Hunter X Hunter.

Too bad I only just managed to finish watching the 1st OVA and just started watching into the 2nd OVA, which is still pretty funny. I am waiting in anticipation to see if they do get into Greed's Island and whether if Gon finally meet up with his dad ( but my dear said he didn't =x ). Now waiting to watch the next episode with my dear, reaching the point where Gon and Killua were both rejected from playing the game since their "ren" are not up to standard yet...

In the meantime while waiting to watch that...



My Klonky in its 2nd Generation/form!!! Hee... This was taken in my minifarm~ I had just moved there not long ago...



My same beloved Klonky in its 3rd and final form! Isn't it pretty?? Behind her ( yea, my Klonky is a female ) are my stupid coffee plants that I can't harvest due to some idiotic login errors back at last week. Pissed me off alot and can do nothing till it probably mature and die off.

Last week was my mummy's birthday too! And when asked what she wants, like birthday cake or anything... She said she wanted the cake I bought for her a week ago =.=" Faint... If I didn't remember wrongly, I actually posted the cake online...

So I had to dash to Bakerzin after work and rushed down to get the cake. Thankfully its the last one they have...



Pretty box~ In case you wondering why there's only 2 candles, I asked the lady to put in two. My mummy's delighted at it, I told her 18 is still not very mature and 20 is just nice. You should have seen the smile on my mummy's face~! Anything to make her happy anyway~



The $50.20 strawberry shortcake. Yea, I spent it cos my mummy wants it. Usually will try to get whatever she wants and that I can afford ( empty wallet... ) The cashier lady asked what writings I wanted to be on the cake and I thought they were going to write it on the cake so I said "Happy Birthday Mum". She went to the kitchen and asked a chef to write it. But I noticed the cake was still at the counter beside the cashier.

Waited and wondering how long its gonna take and looking around the pretty store, delighted at having the cake and feeling the pinch of how much it cost me.

Then the chef gave the lady a plate and I saw what looks like rectangle cookies with words "Happy Birthday" written on them.

The sweet cashier lady apologised to me and told the chef sharply that he missed the word "Mum".

So I waited a litte while more ( nothing can bring me down for I am waiting in anticipation to see my mummy's face light up ) and the cookie finally arrived and placed on top of the cake.

As expected, mummy was delighted, though she claimed the cake was a little too big, but she's happy nonetheless heehee...

After the following days, since Ken had sore throat, daddy and me don't really like strawberry shortcake, mummy insisted I get Ray dear to my house and finished up for her heh heh...

She even personally handed him one piece so he can't reject wahhahaha...

Feeling happy~ Logging out of here~

P.S. The only thing that kept me down is I am still having IBS ( Irritable Bowel Syndrome ). Having lower back pain, constipation ( mainly ) and diarrhoea makes me a bit more unbearable to be around with of late. And cos of it, I am affected to riding public transportation.

At least I made it to work today without taking cab, same as last Thursday. Hope I might feel better soon...

Feeling abit better~ Breakfast at Wendy's~

Finally feeling a little bit better to blog.

Been having IBS ( Irritable Bowel Syndrome ) which made me so uncomfortable that I took cab to work every morning for the past 3 days ( I managed to reach work today without cab!!! )

"Why not rest at home?" Some might asked.

I don't feel like staying at home and... I rather stay in work to distract myself from the pain.

Still having pain but hey, at least I am ok now. But I think what triggered it could be my breakfast ( more like brunch ) on Sunday at Wendy's.



Yummy! I had spicy 2 piece chicken and my dear had the original 2 piece chicken, in between us is the double cheese baked potato ( I overestimated myself and this dish, although simply delicious, is the very dish that triggered my IBS to relapse =x I had been avoiding taking in huge dose of dairy products, but I can't resist baked potato and cheese... )

Something's missing from this picture... Guess is it?

Ans:


Got it right? It's fries! Heh... 4 days of constipation/diarrhoea and plenty of discomfort and pain ( lower back pain and stomach pain ) is too much to pay for this delicious meal alone. Hope I recover from IBS fully so I can enjoy my food once more =x



Can you guess what it is?



What is it made from??

Heh... It's a rose alright but not made from paper. I always failed at making paper rose. One day when my colleague was using some tape and was about to throw this piece of tape away, I took it and kinda played with it and voila! Here's the result! ^.^

But I dumped it in the rubbish bin soon after, cos its soooooo..... sticky. =x

Time to run ciao~
