:: long update =) ::

Okay! i stopped at 23rd Oct! haa.. can't remember what I did already la.

27 Oct Sat
rushed to Michael's bday party after worship prac.. took cab down to his place.. they were having bbq downstairs. not bad, managed to catch up with my juniors.

28 Oct Sun
Had lunch with the Psalmist Resource Corner core, to evaluate how things were run this year and how we can improve for next year. Then i went for MCG Bible study back in church. very sleepy by then. there was baptism after that but it was pouring heavily.. went home to sleep. =)

30 Oct Tue
made use of my Golden Village membership and watched movie at Vivocity with my mom. Brothers, by Andy Lau, Felix Wong, Eason Chen (sometimes I watch movie for the guys *winks*) Not bad.. had late dinner at Asian Kitchen after that.

1 Nov Thur
Had lunch with uncle Colin, who brought me some forms to sign. we had interesting Chinese Wuhan cuisine. a bit too much food for 2 of us. during lunch my colleague kept calling me cuz my client had something urgent to look for me. ARGH.

2 Nov Fri
Sis came back... i walked over to M Hotel to find my dad and got a lift from him to the airport to have dinner with the family. Ate chinese food at the Soup Restaurant, something for Sup to try. then Sup took the motorbike home with my dad while we ladies took cab. haha..

3 Nov Sat
actually sis came back for her friend's wedding, who invited our whole family also. but i had to prepare word for cell so i couldn't go. i also missed my cousin's baby's full-month celebration (oh so directly translated!).
Shared word on Missions, something which i had in mind to share for some time already.
worship prac for combined service. started at 7, so i had time for dinner with Jem and Tricia.

6 Nov Tue
Supposed to go for prayer meeting... but i had a lot of work to do... by the time i was done it was about 7.40pm already. so felt very sian. went home and asked my dad to bring me out for dinner. went to Changi Village for Nasi Lemak. =)

7 Nov Wed
went to Sentosa with my sis.. fun la, finally get to do things i haven't been able to.. like taking a cable car into Sentosa (the last time i took cable car was just from Mount Faber to Harbourfront), playing on the Luge, and chilling out at Cafe Del Mar. we had breakfast at Seah Im food centre. we were still discussing whether to take cable car or not. cable car was ex for tourist man! so silly. at first i wasn't sure if i shld ask my sis to admit that she's local cuz i thought tourist might have a better price. turns out locals get cheaper rates. >.< sorry la, my concept of tourism is to make tourists feel more privileged than locals, i guess i'm wrong about that. So Sup had to pay like double our price, but his first time trying such stuff la.
We went for the Luge immediately. i was so hum ji i only wanted one round. my sis paid for 3 rounds at a go! i'm a very careful driver. hahaha... went super slow. realise i got a fear of collision.
took bus to Siloso Beach and chilled out at Cafe Del Mar. Ordered bacardi breeze.. nice.. and calamari..
saw an open-top red-line bus and wanted to take it, but we had to wait - it comes once in 4 buses. so we took one whole round. i was amused to see the number of indians queueing at the bus stop at Palawan Beach. it was really PACKED man!

after sentosa we took the cable car out - we paid for two-way trips. we made a detour at Mount Faber, since it was at no extra cost. Nothing much la. anyone noticed the flash on Mount Faber's website? nice or not? i wonder who did it.. hmmm...
took bus 100 to Geylang. haa, not to let Sup see our red-light district la, but to go to our aunt's place for dinner. had lots of soup. yummy~ Joshua was so curious about Sup that he kept asking him questions. i realise he still kept asking me the same questions he asked before. =x
took bus 62 back together with them. and just before we alighted, Joshua shouted to Sup "sa wa dee krup!!" haha so pai seh..
we passed by the fitness corner for Senior Citizens and played with some of the ..stuff. Sup did a stunt on my sis. hahahaha i shan't say what it is. could only say that i'm very very amused.

8 Nov Thur
YAY public holiday! went to Shirley's place with my sis and Sup. i was surprised to see Melissa.. cuz actually the first thing i saw when we reached her place were the dogs. then Mel called me.. wooo, she's back from US! And Shirley cooked laksa for us!! it wasn't very spicy and i was able to eat it without bean sprouts hehe.. (i realise Shirley and I have quite similar preferences and dislikes to certain food) and we had cupcakes after that. and we played Wii! haha..
after that i had to go to work because I had taken leave the day before, and when i checked my work email at home i realise i have a lot of work to do =( i enjoy going to work without my colleagues around.. HAHA!
did a bit of the more urgent stuff in an hour and went to find my dad. if i'm not wrong we went to Kovan for dinner. i went to queue for the famous fishball noodle stall. so stupid, by the time i finish queueing my dad had finished his food too. i dun like to queue!

9 Nov Fri
Dinner with family at Vivocity Food Republic Pu Tien.. interesting Chinese cuisine la. walked around, took some photos, which i think my sis posted on her blog.

10 Nov Sat
Went to send my sis and Sup off at the Budget Terminal, with my mom... Had lunch at Hans. saw some old friends... i don't have much impression, but my sis remembers Aunty May from Sonshine Childcare Centre at Bukit Batok. She was going to Phuket too, with her family. cool. took the shuttle bus to T2. argh i didn't know it only goes to T2, my mom and i ended up taking 2 rounds. I changed bus to Tampines and took another bus to church for cell grp.

13 Nov Tue
Went to watch The Game Plan with my parents. at first i only asked my dad, since i watched a movie with my mom recently already. and this is a very father-daughter movie. oh well. haha. very funny and touching.. kept tearing.. haha =x but my dad says he doesn't catch the humour leh. haiz. some movies u just need to watch with a relaxed mind la. i really needed to relax from stress at work.

16 Nov Fri
been OT-ing quite a lot these days. feel very down. especially with certain clients whom i just described in my last entry. they chose us cuz we probably quoted the lowest price among other vendors. they expect high standard? pay more la! feel like spewing vulgarities here already. heh. they're really not giving me a chance leh, just complained to my boss straight away and requested a change of designer (in my company). well u know what? i'm the only designer. what pissed me off more is that my boss asked me to do a nicer design and let my programmer colleague liase with them. it may be for the good of the company, but i'm really occupied with other stuff that's coming in and I feel taken for granted. know what i mean?

went to SMU cuz Malcolm invited the cell grp to check out his cafe. Brandon is back, but i was kinda disappointed that only a handful of pple turned up. oh well. very tired after all the nonsense at work but i dun think i felt better there. in fact the concert in SMU was like a party in HELL. pple were drinking and feeling high and raising their hands as if in worship. i'll say no more.

17 Nov Sat
Had lunch with Gail to discuss MCG work.. to be out next Sun!
after cell some of us went to Vivocity to find present for Diana.

18 Nov Sun
went to Balai with Persis.

20 Nov Tue
Dinner with extended family cuz my aunt from Canada is going back soon. it was at Boon Keng. realise Boon Keng got quite a few such under-HDB kinda restaurants. very stoned and having a headache cuz of work... ate a lot haa..
after dinner took NEL home with my aunt and her family.

22 Nov Thur
Had dinner with a client and an ex-colleague. good friends la. haha.. poured out our work woes to each other. over Fish & Co at Wheelock. my goodness, i took a bus from near my workplace... last min change venue from Forum to Wheelock, i thought my bus was just outside already, so i alighted. then i realise i was only at Cineleisure!! so long never go town already la! haha.. saw the Christmas decos. hmm... okay only lor. doesn't make me feel like Christmas mood. HONG KONG!!!!!

was having headache, but i dun care one la.. to meet friends i would go despite having headache. my social life is dying leh... ask me out leh. hahaha.. i am so okay with anything that it's hard for me to ask pple out. i rather have other pple decide the agenda then tell me, and i'll be there.

23 Nov Fri
Diana's bday celebration at Frujch! i was OT-ing as usual. at first when i got there i thought i was the first from cell.. then when i entered i realise most of them were there already.
Amos, Kelvin and Terry & Grace presented songs for Diana, so touching... seems like despite all the teasings they really care about her. haha..
cried on the way home. i feel depressed.

24 Nov Sat
Mom's bday. had breakfast with her and then went to Crest to pick stuff for Psalmist Resource Corner with Vincent. very disappointed with the variety of stuff this time. cuz i saw many items at a Christian bookshop near my workplace i'd want to pick at Crest. after that i stressed over buying present for my mom. hahaha.
took train down to Potong Pasir then went home. watched tv, went for a jog and showered, then went back to church for PRC setup. cell was cancelled due to Francis & Jocelyn's wedding.
stayed for prayer and then went to Sengkang for dinner at Pizza Hut. wanted to eatr the Cheese Fondue, but the promo is over and forever gone!!! *sob* i love cheese....
ordered the Sambal Delight meal instead. so spicy my stomach turned.
shopped for some clothes after that. i really must restrain myself till Hong Kong!!!
then we went back home for cake. i bought ice cream cake for my mom!! haha.. i can't afford the whole 1kg cake so i bought 3 slices only. =x

25 Nov Sun
thank God for the message Chi Shyan preached, about dealing with problems. i really shld stop wallowing in self-pity and look out for opportunities for Witness. but it's very hard... i complained to everyone about my work stress but it doesn't help apparently. i want to be a farmer next time.

had youth camp leaders briefing. Eleora was giving a briefing on attitudes expected from a leader. i gotta be more sensitive to myself. i admit that i'm the kind who will "peace, peace" but after that hate myself for agreeing to things i may not be comfortable with. that's one area i really need to seek a change in myself.

after that went to look for M'kk with Elena and Esther. we went to Crest to return stuff and had lunch at KFC. Burger King is gone! =x

i prayed for some stuff a few years ago, and now something is happening, but i dun seem willing to accept that it's happening because i prayed for it.

and i've been arrowed to do a website for COR Youth. hmmm can i quit my job? i dun think i can handle... ahhhh....
