Nihon ni ikitai, Nihon e ikimasho!

That's me and DC in the pics preparing for our next trip(yes!) and trying out some coldwears... It was a last minute decision to the country I've always wanted to visit... can't believe it's true, can't wait for next week to come! *Excited* :D

Super wonder woman

Did some stitching at home today... although i took a very long 1 hour just to close the open ends of DC's shorts, I felt absolutely proud of the results! The stitches are strong, neat and not visible! I know this is not an extraordinary task but it really makes my day... it's as if I've transformed a piece of worthless spoilt fabric into something useful and wearable, Ha!

DC was satisfied with my sewing too! :P Besides sewing, I've also done up a lot of household chores today... dead-beat tired now! I feel like a super wonder woman today (unlike the rest of the days :P)!

Not again!

Got an early morning wakeup call from an unknown caller...

"Hello, this is Melissa from HR. Are you joining us?"

I pondered for a while.

"Oh, I thought I'm still on the waiting list? Didn't receive any notification about this..."

She then said she will check for me.

I told her flatly "It's ok, I won't be able to make it now."

And so we missed the chance to the Sungei Buloh Nature Reserve, just like the last time! Who is to blame this time?

Back into Business

Yes, finally able to click and snap on my hp after many days without it! Quite missed the clicking photo-snapping sounds and the semi-touch screen actually! :P

I went for medicure & pedicure treatments today at a newly opened store. Quite satisfied with the service but kind of regretted the nail art design I've chosen the moment I got home... although the classic white flowers on the pink nails look nice, I think i now prefer to have some appliques on my nails, which is the vogue now! :( Next time perhaps?

DC got quite a shock when I told him how much I spent... to him, trimming and shaping nails esp. in a neighbourhood store should not cost much. He is wrong wrong wrong...I should have prepared him earlier. Guys, listen up! The minimal price to expect (for both medicure and pedicure) is $80! Yes, at least $80 and that is without any artwork done on the nails!

Busy Busy Week

Although the weekend is long (there is a public holiday on Friday), it's a super busy one for me.

If possible, I would choose not to bring work back home to do but this time I've no choice. There is an urgent case to discuss on Monday morning right after the team meeting. I just have to finish reading the thick stack of specs (which came in only on Thursday just after work) before the next workweek starts.

Also made use of the long weekend to prepare the materials for today's presentation. It was actually for a segment during our monthly department meeting where every team member has to present something "fun". So far I've seen all talked about their travel experiences. Since I've not been travelling in quite a while (previous trip was 5 months ago), I decided to share DC and my wonderful experience in unwinding and indulging ourselves in SINGAPORE! I did a video of our recent photo shoot which I think was quite well-received. Hehe...

Aside the unpaid time I spent on work at home, we didn't waste the weekend. DC and I actually enjoyed great quality time together...visiting my Ah Ma and Aunt from China, eating good dim sum, getting himself a new PDA phone and myself a PSP, collecting the xbox 360, etc! Life's a little busy, at least it's sweet and good! :)

Red Star Restaurant

Tuck away in a quiet corner on the 7th floor of a nondescript building along Chin Swee Road, it's surpisingly very crowded. There were throngs of people there to have their fill of delicious dim sum. Price-wise is not too expensive but the dim sum is good!

New Sony Stuff

This week, we got ourselves new gadgets. It seems our appetites for things new are never satisfied. So off we went to purchase a Sony Ericsson P1i. I thought it's better to trade in the old SE W880i asap as it kept doing the auto shutdown antic. Anyway, the P1i has the following advantages over the old phone:

1. 3.2 MP camera with auto-focus
2. Wifi
3. PDA

Then we turned our attention to the Sony PSP. Probably with it, it will make a boring train or bus ride less monotonous. Of course, the built in Wifi is icing on the cake as well.

With the Xbox360 also arriving soon from Singnet, I wonder if we will even have time to really utilise them fully. I know I won't for the Xbox ... I am only interested in the "Gears of War" game, hehe ...

My emails are still somewhere out there

I recently subscribed to Singnet again after about 1 year. I naturally used back my old id. So it shouldn't strike me as much of a suprise when my email is set up, I found that I am still receiving a whole lot of emails through this email address. So actually nobody bothers about bounced email. Probably that's why spam is so hard to shake off.

Anyway, this is a good week. Singnet broadband is up (although it was a pain to get the new modem working with my existing wireless router), free XBox 360 coming soon, struck 4-D, bought a new PDA phone. Yep, things are picking up.

My New Magic Wand

Got this mascara recently. I was told to use it everyday so that my lashes will grow longer and curl more upwards... Dunno whether this is true but I'm determined to try it out.

Hope this wand will do some magic to my drooping lashes!

Also bought this eye palette (I'm into neutral makeup, love these brown and beige tones) so that I could take the shimmery white bag home, hehe one more shiny piece to add to my metallic collection...
