7.00 am on Saturday!!

Today is Saturday.
7.00 am on a saturday.
I was brushing my teeth and doing my business in the toilet.
H*ck! I was up at 7 am on a saturday morning.
All because I need to go to work.
*Whine~~
Somebody did not plan the work properly and
Little' O me has to get up at 7 am on a saturday morning!!!
ARGHH~~!! @#$%!^&*!!
And it is NOT my fault!
Nvm, *Takes deep breath.
Must feel happy, feel happy...

Watched extreme makeover the other night.
The "expert" was saying stress and emotions actually make a person fat.
Feeling stressful and emotional give out some sort of hormones and make fat-burning difficult.
So there! No need to exercise.
Just feel happy, de-stress and void yourself of emotions.
Yeah, wear a poker face all the time....
Right~~ :-l
So I went to work.
Then I finished my work. (Sorry, no discussion of work here...)
I remembered that I have to renew my stupid PDL...
Yeah, my big day is on March 9, and my PDL has to expire on the 5th...
D*mn! Another $$$.
The gah-men never give chance one...

I make my way to Harbourfront...
Was planning to cut my hair there anyway.
The smart me checked the internet before and confirmed there is a post office there.
I can renew my PDL at the post office and cut my hair in the same complex.
So smart! *Gives myself a pat on the back...
My Daddy didn't like the haircut.
Actually, hi didn't like the haircuts by THIS hair-stylist...
He thinks he can do better than her...
(My hair was cut by Daddy Dearest since young.... Only recently, I refused to let him cut my hair. Is he feeling jealous?? Nay! Highly unlikely.... Well... My hair is on MY head, right?)
Anyway, I like the new do.
It was much shorter than what I would usually prefer.
Weather is hot.... Shorter hair.... Sleeves, skirts, shorter everything!
Wahahahaha!!!

Begin revision driving lessons on monday.
Soooo exciting! (Dolly's style, Under one roof.)
Must have confidence...
Not enough, need to buy some.
Excuse me, how much does confidence cost?
Gimme 2 kg/litres/metres/pieces of confidence!
(By the way, how do you measure confidence?)

Enough blabbering for now.

I'm unfit... and fat!

Late again.
Was running for the train...
Managed to get in, train doors closing...
I was 'pant', 'pant', 'pant'...
Man! I am SUPER-UNFIT!
I was only running a very short distance, and here I was, panting like hell.
I can even re-light an overnight stove.

Met a ex-colleague yesterday.
"My, you have put on weight! Good life, eh?"
Was one of the first few things he said.
"FA-FU" were the exact words he used.
I AM FAT!! FAT!! FAT!!
"Stress loh, so eat a lot..." I managed to say.
D*mn! Need to go real easy on those stupid chocolates!

Driving test is in two weeks.
Just thinking about it gives me the jitters.
See? My legs are jelly already...
I almost regretted booking for revision lessons only one week before the test.
Confidence! Must have confidence!
Humf! Wish I can crawl back into Mum's womb.
Probably I will pass out cold, even before I get into the car.
Alamak! Can't eat chocolates, how?
*STRESSED!!

V day

Another dateless Valentine's day.
Okay, no problem.
Just avoid those places with lovey-dovey couples...
I could almost see the strings of tiny red hearts "oozing" out of their heads...
Better find myself a date for next year.
H*ll, I have been saying that for years...
Been waiting for "the one".
The big question is, Who is "the one"?
Ans: Kenau Reeves in the matrix.
**Kidding!**

Everybody is giving me pressure in finding a mate,
Everybody... except my dad.
He has a pretty sharp tongue when it comes to my boyfriends.
Geez, think he could set up a boyfriend screening company...
Among the customers are all the "three aunties and six grandmas"...
Competition will be tough.
Dating agencies propose, this company oppose.
Wahahahaha!!!

Right, back to the big picture...
How do I find out whether a guy is available, without sounding "desperate"?
Do I march straight up at him and ask, "Excuse me, are you seeing anyone at the moment?"
And expect a straight answer?
I guess not, most of the time.
Or I could act really coy, like, "Hey, can buy me dinner or not?"
Hoping to get a date out of it?
D*mn! Requires very think skin, those that does not blush easily.
Me? I will light up like a red lantern... :-0

A colleague bought me a good luck charm,
When worn around the wrist, is supposed to bring love...
Heehee, **Blush!

Pleased

The other day, I was going out for lunch.
Met a girl from another department.
Hi~, Bye~ was all I said.
Afterall, we weren't all that close.

"No, wait... See?"

See what??
On her neck, in purple beads was a necklace I didn't remember I gave her.
Together with matching purple bracelet, purple watch and purple blouse,
Which I am very sure I didn't give her!
Hahaha~! She was proudly showing off all these to me,
And I am secretly pleased.
I didn't expect anyone to really wear something that I made,
Nor did I see anyone actually wearing them at all.
Yes, I am very very pleased. :-)

Gong Xi Fa Cai!

New year mood liao.
Hee... hee... Taking things very slowly.
Time now is about 11am.
Wonder what to have for lunch.

Ding-a-long-tong-chang-tong-chang~~
CNY melodies kept playing in my head.
Looking forward to a steamboat dinner with Daddy dearest.
After which I will get a big fat Ang Bao from him....
Not that I am after the money,
But I have got almost the whole week to laze around.
Waha!!

I was very excited when I went for groceries shopping in NTUC.
I dun cook, so it is not everyday that I shop for canned food and stuff.
Imagine. I was carrying the basket, dashing in and out of the asles,
Choosing from "hundreds" of brands of button mushrooms and baby corn.
Geez.... It actually feels good to be a "auntie"! Wahahaha!!!

Seeing Red

Almost everybody in my office is crazy about red underwear these days.
Heehee... No joke!
We girls went on shopping sprees during lunchtime for...
Red underwear!
Superstitious or not,
Red underwear are supposed to bring good luck,
Especially during the Chinese New Year period.
Or so the aunties at the market say.
So wives get red undies for their husbands and themselves...
Some of the briefs even come with motifs of dragons
And chinese characters of wealth and prosperity...
Mmm... Wonder if Superman would like those?
