cookie monster

after many many tries with different blogskins, i've finally settled for this cookie monster skin.
i like it because it's simple
i like it because it's plain
i like it because it's cute
i like it because it's cookie monster
i like it because it's a cookie monster who shits :)

i found an elmo blogskin in a similar template as this! who wants to be twinnies with moi?

had Häagen-Dazs macadamia nut ice cream & sara lee cake for dinner. yums! totally reward for my hard work today.
*in denial of my sins*

work tomorrow again. their faces still make me feel like puking.

i want to go singing!

Dream Home

Was bored while bathing and started thinking about my future dream home....

My dream home consists of the following oooh-so-lovely aspects:

- a massage chair to relax in the evening after a long long day

- a swing sort of bench for fun times to chat with friends and family


- bean bags bean bags bean bags!! in red, blue, green, yellow, polka dots, stripes, leopard, zebra, all sorts of colours!!

- a round/circle designer chair as often seen on tv which looks like this:

- a 4 poster bed like this.. oooh so princessy..

- a wonderfully relaxing bath tub for a milk bath or rose petals bath filled with bubbles

- a set of nicely painted walls which is not only white and white alone. i'd love it to be creative! vibrant! cheerful!

- a nice & cosy kitchen where I can do whatever I like to it and hopefully it looks like one typically seen on Discovery Travel & Living

- a walk in wardrobe with a see through cupboard specially for my bags bags bags so it feels like i'm shopping everytime I step into my wardrobe (FYI, that's Carrie Bradshaw's wardrobe in Sex and the City)

I'm very absolutely aware that many of the above will probably never come true, or else, only when i'm 60 but well, such is life.... and I love to day-dream :)

Sunday Depression

It's a Sunday & I'm having Sunday depression. I'm depressed thinking about tomorrow's work. About having to face the bird and tortoise. Their faces makes me puke. About doing work that I do not believe in myself. About having to go through the weekly staff briefing and being interrogated by bird on why is this like this and why is that like that. It's so bad that I have urges to cry every now & then. I find it hard to make myself smile on a Sunday. I hate myself for taking naps on a Sunday as it means shortening my day and making Monday come faster.

Went to Yishun Safra KTV during New Year's Eve. The fun part was when me & Simin took out our cameras and started shooting around. :)

Went to KS's new dessert shop at Potong Pasir yesterday to show our support for this old time band senior! Hope his business will pick up soon and more people will patronise this small but cosy place. The desserts are good! :)

After that, we headed to NAFA's Lee Foundation Theatre for a night of brass music - Symphonic Brass Plays "Theatre Music" presented by Just Brass Ensemble with guest appearance by The Tuba Powerhouse & ConCORdis. Old class & band mate Zhong Qing (who is probably the most talented young French Horn player in Singapore now) performed at the concert (which explains why we're all there). He had many solos that night and was probably the star of the concert.

Good job friend! You did great (except for a couple of wrongly pitched notes, haha :P) and I'm very happy to see your current achievements. It has been your dream since Secondary school to be a great musician and I think you are doing exactly that now. :)

After the concert, we headed to a steamboat place opposite Paradiz Centre for a "light" dinner :P

Sometimes I have the urge to tell her that her actions are making many of us unhappy. Probably some of the things I said were a bit harsh but this is definitely not an isolated case of her doing/saying things that will spoil everybody's night so I couldn't bear it anymore. It is not often that we meet, probably 2 times a year and I do not think it is hard to compromise with everyone else to make things easier. Wake up from your world, please. It is not just about you and you alone.

I've bidded for this cute Coach Taffy from Evilbay! Have to go through vPost as the seller doesn't ship to Singapore. It is a bit troublesome but definitely worth my time as a Singapore Yahoo! auction seller is selling it for $100 more. Cant wait!

Ok, that spells the end of my very random post. Back to depressing Sunday.

Merry Holidays

I'm on leave since last mid week and will be going back to work next Monday :) My break is going gone too fast and I'm already at 3/5 of my break! *moans*

The past few days have been eventful - not!

Fell down on 23rd and sprained my right ankle. It is still swollen and bruised and I've been limping ever since.. Mr Porky tried to rub the swollen part for me and it was so painful that I screamed and teared. Heehee, weak rite...
(Thanks Lorraine for the crutches on Facebook, asking me to go back to office with it despite my leave. Hey babe, stop dreaming! I'm free from the animals until next week! :P)

Went to an old friend's grandma place for BBQ on Xmas eve. The food was good! But the night was disappointing after that. We initially planned to go bowling and KTV after the food but due to some *urgh* reasons, we simply spent the night at the void deck and talked about nothingness... I've known this group of friends since Sec 1 (including Mr Porky) & I really treasure this friendship. We have arranged to meet again on the 31st with more people and I really hope it'll be more fun. :)

Watched 2 movies these few days - National Treasure 2 & I am Legend.

National Treasure 2
Nicholas Cage has really really aged. His hairline can let him act as those period drama's emperor or eunuch and he doesn't have to shave the front part of his hair at all.. The show's quite good but not as good as the first.

I am Legend
is a horror movie! :P
It is full of suspense and Will Smith's acting is excellent. I like the show but I think the plot can be elaborated more..

I have lots of pictures to post but I'm procrastinating.

I'm THE procrastinator :)

PS: Shukkie, I'll email you the photos when I'm done procrastinating. :P

Blink Blink

Tada!
I went for eye lash perming with Woman 5.0 today at Bishan under the recommendation of meanie :) Woman 5.0 did eyelash extension while I did eyelash perming.. (Don't dare do extension cos scared it'll be too heavy)

It was a queer experience, cos you don't really know what the lady is doing to your eyes. So I can only imagine what was happening in my head and of course clarify with the "auntie" who was doing the deed.

I opted for the more dramatic "rod" method instead of the supposedly more natural and newer "nano" method. I think the end effect is not THAT dramatic so I guess it was a good choice. If I opted for the more natural "nano" curl, I would probably be not as pleased.. :P

In layman terms, what she did was to "glue my eyes", put a "rod" above my lashes, push the lashes one by one up and stick against the rod, apply some special lotion (which was quite stinging), cover the eyes with cloth, press it lightly and wait for what I think was around 15 minutes, check the lashes and add another special lotion to "set" it, cover and wait for another 10 minutes and we're done!


It was a cool experience and I guess I'll be doing it again in the future... :P
