last day of the rat year..

it's cny eve! i love the cny. haha.. i even love cleaning the windows.. must be mad. haha.. but it really do. just dun like it when my bro just sits there or goes out and when we remind him he has to do his part, he gets frusttrated. hello, u stay in the house too! damn..

got many cuts.. from all the sharp corners in the kitchen clean up. now fingers are tender.. haha.. i only do this once a year.. inexperienced. haha..

house is all red. made lanterns. changed the curtains. the living room one is a little too dark. hmm.. think need to part it in a different way so it allows more light in. shall do that after the first two days.

going to change the bedsheets now. shall do all except my bro's. ;p he can do it later himself. i love the new bedsheets. hehehe... so many different types of pineapple tarts at home,. scary.. tom shall get all to eat and eat... hehehe..

happy cny to all.. gong xi fa cai!! yeah!! new clothes tom!! woohoo..

it's a new beginning...

Obama is the man.. the president.. the one... he's a very charming man.. handsome..

the first lady is pretty! she has this regal air.. very charming too.. they are definitely very charming together...

i am sleepy.. meant to write more but never mind.. maybe during cny.. tom and fri will be very tiring.. :(

sat and sun need to do lots of cleaning..

looking forward to cny.. i like cny.. tiring, but i like.. hee.. need to charge my battery..for camera..

i'm sleeping.. it's late..

my family's first holiday...

saw pictures of my family's trip to genting.. it's the first ever trip we took together.. i think my sis helped to pay or something.. i cannot remember.. but thanks so much, mum and sis... i still remember us watching tv in the room and freezing.. tat time the hot water had to be taken from the dispenser along the lobby.. it was interesting.. :) we looked rather old fashioned last time. haha.. it was funny..

anyway, u know how things always happen in threes? haha.. today i was third time careless. haiz.. i decided to help with the spring cleaning and i just started not long when misforutune struck. i was clearing the bookshelf a whole shelf of encyclopedia fell on my thumbs. had to pull them out from between the planks. damn.. it was painful. so painful i didn't know whether to cry or laugh.. quickly took ice and gave it the ice treatment. supposed to elevate and also to bandage but decided not to as it would hinder the clearing. anyway, i'll look weird with both thumbs bandaged. :p

now both thumbs are swollen. and cannot really bend them or use them to do much. packed up the shelf, the keys shelf, the tv console and the area below the study table. damn, there was so much dust... and all that lizard shit. damn... tidied up all the wires and cleared all the dust... now backache. threw away lots of things. heh heh.. left them outside of the door for my bro to help throw away.. but he has gone to a birthday party and will clear later... haiz. if not for my thumbs, i'll do it myself.. oh well, good to make him to something. next weekend he better help. haiz..

hoping next week will go on ok. after new year work will pile up and things will just get worse. i'm hoping for the best... haiz.. tot can go picnice today.. the weather is good.. but clearin comes first lah... haiz...

the lengths parents go to for their children

@sim now waiting for yang to finish his recall at maju camp. it's orientation day for the new students of unisim. funny.. i see many parents fighting to carry their kids's books and materials they just collected. eh, hello, the kids are not like 7 or 8 years old. more like 22 or 23 years old or older. they can carry their own books! seriously! then there was another dad who insisted on filling in the son's registration form. eh.. he is old enough to fill in the form! my goodness... been thru ns and all.. tsk tsk.. come on.. let them manage their own matters. they can handle it..

the itunes on my iphone does not work after i installed the updates. eh, updates are supposed to help not make things worse. silly. should have just ignored the message to update the phone. hope it clears in a few days like what other users say on the net. damn.

the new army uniforms looks weird. hmm.. very giddy to look at it for long. maybe it's to make all the enemies giddy? haha..

cny is coming, mum's aches and pains are not going away. doc says it's serious. he even suspected hep A! oh man.. sounds serious... hope mum gets better soon.. next sat and sun will be helping mum to clean the house. haiz..

the weeks ahead look daunting.. it's syf year.. we need to win a gold.. we have to or we are dead meat....

a suai story

cannot believe my luck. it's only 9 days into the year. i'm trying to look on the bright side. i really am.

i lost my retainers on 30 dec. i just made new ones yesterday. cost me 200. i am due to get my iphone tonight with a trade in of my w960i phone. but guess wat. i dropped the phone and the screen cracked. how to trade it in? haiz. i'm trying to see if i can trade in my k800i. haiz. wat tough luck. :(

i'm phoneless. and very sad...

moving on...

new year came by and went off in a jiffy.
party's over, the fun's been had.
work's piling after a day.
lives lost each day,
often in a blink of an eye.

did you say "i love u" to the ones you love?
did you apologise when something wrong was said?
did you live life like there's no tomorrow?
did you live life truly and honestly?

regret not the bad decsions made,
fret not the mess created.
pity not those who had to go,
cry not for what's not said or done.
it's time to move on.

starting work soon. and i have a day to get a mountain high pile of work to do. read a blog about a young 30 year old pretty lady dying from cancer. sad.. had to write down some thoughts i have in my head since i came back from holidays. it's back to reality. sounds terrible. haha.. indeed the year did not start very well. i left for hk in a hurry. i left things unsaid and undone. i came back for a while and then rushed off again. i still left things unsettled as i was unsure. damn my insecurities and fickle-mindedness. serves me right. haha. now to make up for the mess. hope to clear everything soon.

things have changed. ppl come and go. ppl move on. guess the only way is to brave on all storms and turbulence. hopefully will not get hurt too much or cause others to be hurt in the process. life is such...

2009!

wow.. saw pictures of the fireworks last night! amazing! must have been the best in years! wow.. think everyone needed that boost.. with the hope that everything picks up in 09.. let's all keep our fingers crossed!

i just went to the singtel shop online and bought an iphone. haha.. my other boyfriend, M_ _, will pay for the phone. haha.. it'll arrive on 9 jan 09! well, i decided to get it so soon cos my phone is not working well. something is not right with the touch screen function.. causes sms and calls to be disrupted.. hee hee.. and i'll get to surf net at wireless.sg places.. haha.. yippee...

i also did housekeeping for my work email. it'll soon be choked up with emails. i need to make space for them. haha.. it's going to be a crazy year. i'm trembling at the thought of it.. tom will need to be in school earli.. after that there'll be a wedding dinner at swissotel. wow.. i think i'll just wear watever i'm wearing to the dinner to school. haha.. shock everyone? hee hee.. well well.. see how first. hmm..
