Friends!

Hi Friends! I'm back after a long hiatus! As usual, I was too busy with work that I couldnt find time to blog about my fabulous life out there. I'm really glad that despite the heavy load of work, I could still find some time to do chill-out session with my bestie on the week after last friday.

A wine to perk the lovely evening

I'm glad that I have a friend like you.. lala! (Ah... I feel fat here!)




In the past, I've always thought that friends are not an important asset as long as I have a great boyfriend. However, I have just realise that it is so wrong to have such mentality. Friends are equally important as a boyfriend. After entering into the working society, I realised that there are times that I just need to bottoms up my happiness/unhappiness which happened at work. I couldn't date my bf out at times as he had to mug hard for his exams/test bla bla bla... or maybe I just feel wierd to just date my bf out, order 2 glasses of wine, pour out my stories, listen to the band playing and head home for a sleep after that. I COULD JUST DO IT AT HOME AT A MUCH LOWER COST! It's so different doing it with a group of friends or maybe just one! (FYI: Baby, I'm not saying that you're lousy.. you're still the best!) I'm sure many gfs of my would totally agree with my saying! There are just some time that you just need to have a gf to shop/eat/drink with you. So, I'm glad that I have a lovely gf who is willing to spend money with me to drink, eat, shop and even head to the saloon with me! *hugs Lala*

On the following Monday, I had to go for a wisdom tooth extraction. It wasn't necessary for that extraction and so I was contemplating. Upon reaching the dental clinic, I was still having second thoughts. I discussed with the dentist and she thinks that if I would not want any unnecessary pain in the future, then I should plucked the wisdom away! I don't know what courage got into me, that I agreed and there comes the injections! It wasn't as bad as what I thought it would be! The pain was endurable and I did not even know that the tooth was extracted at all! It was overall a good experience. The extraction was fully claimable by medisave! It was sort-of free and what's best... I had 5 days MC!

It was quite boring to be at home somehow! Tv shows were not as exciting and all my friends were WORKING! All I could do was to catch some online HK drama.

Time pass like a speed of a bullet train, before I knew it, it was already Friday! My wound got better and I decided to carry on with the meet up session with the uni project mates. I guess it was cause of my desire to head out of the house that I took more than usual to get myself ready.


I am a weatherman when it comes to make up. It depends on my mood. If I'm HAPPY and EXCITED.. I will apply great stuff on my face.. if not.. I will simply just put on my black eyeshadow and shade my brows. On Friday itself, I applied on this really fantastic BB cream from Nature Republic.

priced at $29.90 in Singapore

Thanks to my sis who had gotten it free from her boss. I didnt quite believe my sister at first when she told me that most koreans uses this in Korea cause she's not as make-up savvy as compared to me( come on.. she don't have that much free time to read up on beauty tips at all!). So, when I ran out of foundation before flying off to Taiwan the other time, I had no choice but to try out on the BB cream. To my HOLY SURPRISE... it seriously does wonders to my face.

See how it shines! I simply love how my face shines here!(despite that damn pimple)

It's really so good that I had gotten Jace babe to get 1 tube for me when she's at korea (hope she remembers!) else I will have to get it in Singapore at $29.90!


Back to the topic (got to rush a little.. Daddy is chasing me to get ready for Robinson Expo sale!)

We (Uni friends and I) went over to Holland V after dinner at Waraku. There was some special promo at Tango! It was a pity that I couldnt drink that night since I was on pills for my extraction! Adam was trying his best to influence me but well.. life was rather impt to me than a glass of HOEGARDEN!



angie and I!

Prince You Xiang

Adam who loves to drink!

Jason

Boyfriend came to join us to pick me up. I'm happy that he's enjoying the conversation with my friends too! :)

A tiring long weekend

I had a really awesome Thursday night with bestie when we decided to chill at Acid bar again. Acid bar is seriously the best place with the best musics. Despite it being the EVE of a public holiday, Happy hour is still on! I had a 1 pint erdinger for only $9.90 nett! The live band didnt disappoint me either as he sang cantonese music by Beyond. He's just really amazing.

After a pint down my stomach, I had to rush down to PS for a movie with the bf and friends. It was Social Network that I'm catching. Probably 1 pint was pretty too much for me that I felt a little drowsy walking from Acid Bar to PS! Thank god that I manage to cool off my mind and focus on that fantastic show.

Friday came and I was stuck at home clearing my untidy room once again. Having to share a room with a sister who don't helps to pack seriously IS DIFFICULT! I had to pack for hours and I GAVE UP when I saw her desk littered with receipts and paper bags! *white flag raised*

Headed down with the bf to Chomp Chomp to have desserts  but because I didnt want to grease my hair with those smoke, I chose Frolick over chicken wings/satay/mango sago! Probably because I'm a marketer myself, I tend to ask alot about their current promotion so when I saw their loyalty programs, I questioned them like an interviewer! Haha! I'm quite amazed how frolick does their marketing! It's really good!


Well.. it's quite sad that I wont be pursuing my marketing career for long now as I will be moving on to a new place very soon. I'm quite glad that I was being chosen among other better candidates and knowing that it's my wish to be part of that fantastic company, I AM GOING TO DO MY BEST!!





Alright, it is time to go now! Boring Saturday again today as I slept throughout the whole evening!

An eventful week again

I really love it when I know there's something to look forward to for the week. Everyone knew that yours truely had gone for a short Taiwan trip.

Pardon me a little as I really adore how my face reflects over here like an eggshell! Seriously, the BB CREAM from Nature Republic really does wonders!

that's me once again with my flight to Taipei! I'm really glad that we chose SQ for that 4 hrs flight!

The flight was great especially with in-flight entertainment of SATC, GLEE and Gossip girls! However, I was pretty unlucky to meet up with a baby who left a stench of puking and his pregnent mummy who fainted upon landing. It was quite dramatic when the airline crew had to call upon doctors on board. It was indeed quite scary when the baby was crying loudly with many passengers shouting for EMERGENCY!

After half an hour of routing, we manage to reach the airport safe and sound. We were kinda con by the temperature stated as it was awesomely sunny and hot for the whole of 4 days. Well, at least the typhoon had move to china! Hehe!

It took us another hour to reach the city! Ping lang mei is almost everywhere on the street!

the first thing that caught my attention was the automatic toilet bowl in the hotel room. It's just so cool! It emits unwanted smell after your business INSTANTLY! Why doesnt Singapore hotels have such toilet bowls when we are paying thrice the amount?

Went to look for our dinner at Shi Lin after checking in. Seriously, I'm not quite a Taiwan Food lover! I don't really like how each food tasted in my mouth!

Imagine seeing this everywhere along the street with the infamous CHOU TOFU!

The food tasted cold and salty almost all the time! The chicken cutlet in singapore tasted much better than Taiwan! ONE thing that Singapore might be lacking is.. THE BUBBLE TEA! Sigh... the bubble tea is really one thing NOT TO BE MISSED! Especially those without MILK in it! It's like heaven!!

Really regretted when I saw..


and ordered without any hesistation. I mistook the veg as asparagus and after a huge bite, I puke the whole thing right into the plastic bag! As for the corn, it wasnt SWEET CORN to my dissappointment! It was some LAO HONG corn! Seriously, who will like LAO HONG corn? Bleah!

Orh Ak Jian which tasted more like starchy egg! Singapore is 10 times better! A big sigh!

Queer Food : Pig's blood with peanuts!

We went to Jiu fen and had to take a public bus! It was a great experience having to take the public transport. It just felt so old school!

The fashion in Taiwan wasnt really to my likings too! Probably its the season as it is approaching winter! Things sold there are mostly florals and laces( something like Vivi)! F.Y.I it is not as cheap as what you think! My clothes cost mostly around $20 plus and my sis even bought a winter jacket at S$200 at Wu fen pu! Probably it is the crowd that I was with that didnt make me enjoy the trip as much as I wanted to? But my aunties and parents never failed to make me laugh like mad too! It's a great family trip I would say but as for the shopping wise.. Not really that fantastic! I still prefer Hong kong over Taipei!

Gtg now and will soon blog more on the St Regis stay! Stay tune!

I LOVE TAIWAN

It's 7 47 in the morning and I'm not heading to WORK nor am I getting ready for it! I'll be flying to my favourite country for the year which is... TAIWAN! After hearing so much from the boyfriend, I guess it is time to head to TAIWAN with my family. Anyway, this trip is fully sponsored by CHAN brothers cause my sister had won some online contest to bring the family out for a trip. Though it is just a 4 day 3 night trip, I'm sure it will be the best family trip I ever had. My favourite aunties will be joining along too so yea.. it will just add excite to it! Darling had been a really sweet one too when he send me an email on regards to where to shop as he knew that non of us are free to do some itinery planning. It's really sad that he wont be able to join us this time round but baby, I promise you that we will be heading down taiwan next year too ok?

The beginning of this week was quite a disappointing one as I thought I would stand much higher chances compared to the rest but I guess I have lost out in the battle field. I must admit that I felt really sad and a little useless when there were no calls but but but.... I have manage to overcome them and think positively that I will TRY IT ONCE AGAIN! YES! YOU BETTER GIVE ME A CHANCE AGAIN!!! PLEASE! Everyone was hoping for you to change my life but I guess somehow my capabilities wasn't recognised by you this time! Never mind about the past, just bring it on the best future for me!

OK! Its 8am soon! Gonna start preparing and head out at 10am! BABY, before I fly... I shall be the first to ANNOUNCE again...

HAPPY 3 years 3 months ANNIVERSARY!

My story about WORK!

At some point of the time, I realise that I have started to grow up in terms of mentality and behaviour. Things that I used to think it was FUN, EXCITING and CHALLENGING became rather monotone nowadays.

My time for Monday and Friday would be waking up with a sleepy mood, walking to the bus stop with a dreadful mood and my energy would kick start like a washing machine when I stepped into the office! I will start with the checking of emails, brainstorming what should be done for the day, attending several meetings and making phonecalls to many people! Work though sounds rather stressful but I'm glad that I have a wonderful Indonesia boss who teaches me alot of tips and tricks and an experienced manager who showed me how PR skills and communication can make a difference in life! I really have to thank their existence in my working life in Waraku!

During the weekends, I will start to brainstorm ideas for promotions so that I can share with these people my ideas and see if they had any opinion! Its really great when I can see my ideas being appreciated by them! :)

I would really hope that I can be someone with a good leadership and decision making skills.

The current old fifi!

I was in my corporate outlook with my pair of contact lenses. I reckon that it doesnt seems like what I thought I would be. I feel old and serious for a moment. I must admit it wasnt really what I wanted to be since young. Age is indeed catching up and I think it is time to splurge on expensive face care products for now.

Here's me trying in vain to retrieve the cute image I once had but to no avail! URGHHHH!!!!! WHAT HAPPEN!!!

All I could see was the mature fifi! Bye to those days when I thought I will be always 15! *sob sob*

It's PLAYTIME with the boyfriend

Remember that I did mention about the PS3 MOVE? The game that I said.. I MUST BUY! Baby and I finally bought it after many comtemplation. The price was cheap but we just didnt want to splurge on it at that time till we couldnt resist the temptation ANYMORE!

We bought the bundle set at $100 plus! It comes with a game, controller and a video camera that allows me to take take picture to save it on FACEBOOK! How COOL is that.

We bought the party set cause the kungfu just didnt seems that attractive. In this game, I had to brush the crocodiles teeth, catch birds and do colouring! It's quite fun if you're playing with a group of friends. I felt a little bored after playing it for 15 mins! Darling hated this game cause he just didnt like GIRLIE Games(-_-). We bought another sports game just to suit his likings! The sport game was fun(thank god!)! I was trying my best to clear the challenge for the volleyball competition. Manage to get a Bronze medal.. and am fighting for the silver now! Gee!

I simply cant wait to head to his place again to whack those volleyballs! Hehe!

It had been a busy week for the both of us. Bf's grandma had recently passed away in her sleep. It was quite a shocking news and I felt so bad that I couldnt be physically there for him since I was having a meeting when he tried calling me for 2 hrs plus. He sounded really sad and anxious when I finally made the call to him. The funeral was held for 5 days and I was there on 2 nights. I finally had got the chance to meet all his relatives who are really wonderful people.

Days after the funeral will be busy for the family too as they had to perform some ritual every week and that would means lesser meetups! It's alright since I will be flying off to Taiwan soon.. but seriously.. I do find myself missing him more now! Absence do make a heart grew fonder. Love u my dear!
