The Third P.O.P

And so the kids had their convo ceremony yesterday. That was my third time doing the marshal duty and donning the purple gown. Some left a deep impact on me that I will probably remember them for long while others will just move on quietly.

The BIE kids!

The one who always calls me Kak.

Anyways, a huge CONGRATS to Class 2009. Thanks for the memories!

For the record, I was in YOUTUBE! Check it out! hee.

How Do I?

It was this funny thing that BFF and Me and her Indian gal fren Jots took a cab and started conversing about almost everything in the cab. To the extend that the driver could not contain his anxiousness and annoyance I guess that he has to just interrupt and questioned us this,

"How come you girls talk like that? Do you mix alot with Chinese? All the LAHs, MEHs, LORs seem to come out. I will never allow my daughter to speak like that."

And he went on saying about perhaps because we belonged to different generations. Then suddenly questioned us again if we would ask our other halves to carry our hangbags. He even included that the Europeans would be laughing their heads off at that. We don't seem like that kinda girls do we? But truthfully, yes, I will nvr ask him to carry my bag. Especially those a lil pricey, well at least to me, ones. Why would you buy a bag so expensive only to have your guys carry them for you? And once he sling it over his shoulder, it just turns me off instantly.

Anyways, that was the cab journey from CCK to Jelapang. hee.

Yesterday, finally I got to laze practically the whole Sunday. Phew! Besides helping mom to cook and fold the laundry, I was lazing on my bed with all windows and door shut tightly. Thanks to Makcik Kopok. I think I would just freak out if someone would gave me greetings on my door. And dad will still has the cheek to joke about it although I can't bring myself to believe in it.

I wondered why my vision is blur today. Is it cause I am fasting? Or are my lenses wrongly inserted? I have to remind myself to abstain from eating or drinking today although my bottle of plain water is on my right while the cookies and junk is on my left now. And mom even asked me this morning before I went out what would I want for my break fast later. hee. She jolly well knows that I do not like having rice on my break fasts and noodles would be on top of the list! Now I'm already looking forward to the end of the day. The draggy Monday.

Thanks for the memories

Ally

So finally Fri came and I went out slightly early to meet BFF. Upon reaching Shasha's place, she instructed us to wake her Baby Ally up..Oh boy! Don't we had a hard time doing that?? She just sleeps and sleeps and sleeps. Don't believe me?

Life's good...Cosy bed...Let's just sleep on.

Eh? Wer am I now?? Where's my cosy bed?? Craps..Just sleep on lah..

Mmmm What's this?? Feels like King Koil..Shiok lah...Cosier than my bed..

Aaaahhh! Nice...Zzzzzzzzz

I fold my arms and continue sleeping....

Ok Ok! I give up! Who wakes me up better own up now?!? Wait who is this??

Urghhh...Ok Auntie, u win!

Actually Baby Ally pooed and everyone started to despise her...So the pushing game was ON. Mummy was the first to surrender. Daddy pretended to be shy as Baby Ally is a girl and surrounded by us ladies...So they pushed it to the Aunties who came to visit her...But since with no experience, all give in and poor granny had to do the job...While changing her diaper, Ally decided to wee as well....heee.

1) Continue my dream of arguing with that fat Mat; whoever he is

2) Cut my fringe badly although it's not that long

3) Go see see Sephora cos I've never ever been there to check out all the beauty junkies

9) Get that First Love compilation CD even though he bot me my Green Day last night

10) For all of the above to be achieved

After Sometime...

Yesterday's meet up with the PSBFs went great! It was after so long that I had a real buffet. All I remember from the previous glutton sessions was that normally I will puke everything out again. But not at Marina's Seoul Garden. We started the session at close to 7pm and only ended it around 9pm. And Lin was supposed to be grabbing some last minute gifts for her colleague yet these two ladies of mine dropped by Secret Recipe and bought like almost 5 slices of cakes each. Unbelievable! I have never ever done that in my entire life! And so Ifah has just got to get me this non creamy Chilled Stroberi Cheesekek!

It tasted as good as it looks!

To my PSBFs, thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for the beautiful and wonderful friendship all of 19 years of it! Aha. 19 years of it! It's like 3/4 of my life. Through the letters, meets and smses, NOTHING can stop us now. Friends Forever. :D

Be My Baby

Yesterday, finally picked up the VS body lotion at Pioneer and walked my way to Jurong Point. There, got the bday card for PSBF and headed to Sakura for a brief dinner. Thanks BFF. For bringing the photos and so many ole2 from Bintan (and from JP too I know you lame woman!). hee. The trouble of carrying the huge tupperware to work and only to pass it to me back at JP. haha. Thankies ya.

And I love the T cos got my fave color PINK and definitely not cos it's in your fave YELLOW, okay! hehe. I hope we could meet up again real soon cos I still wana see your official album!

And now now presenting Pwincess Nur Allysha Aaryani. Dun be glum okie? Auntie Yam will visit u real soon. And I'll make sure you open your eyes for me... :D Be a good girl for now aite..Dun make Mummy Shasha cry....Altho that's one of her fave pastime.

Breathless

It was a pretty hectic week I must say. For a good start, me and partner managed to do our brisk walk at the campus. A whole of 3.6km in total. Aha. Not kidding you. But we did not perspire as much though. And we took 45mins to complete the route. Looking forward to the next round. Target? Will be the whole campus route before fasting mth!

I am all ready for the brisk walk! Bring it ON!

After the walk, went to JP for soupy dinner. Then did our round of navigating for the dress! In the end, settle for the LBD. And partner got a good deal as well. Went home contented.

Was supposed to meet BFF on Friday but she called earlier on Wed and since she did not have any plans and I've got the ingredients for the diaper cake ready, she decided to drop by. After a simple prata with sambal dinner, we started our mission. Anyhow arranging the diapers and soon a round shape appeared. Finally, the result was quite a success for first timers I guess. hee!

Told ya! haha. But I still want the ribbon to be smaller than this. Thankfully, BFF brought it home since we visiting the babe at BP.

And talking about babe, her husband called me this noon. And said she's 4cm at that time and needs to work harder for that 10cm measurement. How cute of him to inform me that but I guess he's now filled with excitement and joy since I got to know tru FB that she has safely delivered the girl! Alhamdulillah. And again, I officially auntied. hee. Cant wait to carry her thou!

Fri was quite free as I did not have any meetings. But he dropped that bad news on me in the morn. And I just felt my world crumbling down into pieces. Definitely not a good start to the weekend. Almost wanted to give up and throw everything away. Cried so much. Still I need to move forward.

Me and mom went on an adventure to Geylang to collect my 2 baju. Why adventure?! Cos of the bus ride. We got onto 67 frm cck intchg but the door somehow cld not close properly. So we were told to get down and move to another bus after ten minutes. Asked to tap our card and stated as free. Once we settled into the other bus, it kinda heated up soon after. Yes. The aircon was spoilt and when it reached Bt timah, I almost wanted to faint. Told mom to get down to change bus but she insisted to stay. Luckily we shifted to the front of the bus and there, the aircon works. So we sat there till we reached our destination.

Today as per norm drove sis to werk and mom to market. Helped mom with her cooking while waiting for time to pass to meet Nian. I didn't get to nap at all though. hee. Woke up every hour throughout the nite. Then we just walked and walked in Lot 1, got PSBF's presie, had a girls' talk at LJS, saw Abg Matmat with his pretty daughter and decided to catch OBSESSED. Enjoyed the Beyonce and Ali fight in the house and was pretty amazed at how a bitch throw herself at a married man out of desperation? hhmmmm..

But for now, my current obsession shall be RIBBONS!

Tears

So yesterday returned BFF’s call and it’s been SO long since we last meet up. Chatted with her for 40mins which I never even done with fiancé. There’s so many catching up to do and the last meet was when I came back from Japan back in May. Gross! That long?! That explained the forty minutes of gossips, updates and giggles despite mom’s screams. And we laughed so hard like never before till I shed tears of laughter. Suddenly felt so kiddy all over again. Will meet up real soon ya.

And today, TDD just had to massage massage my blue black. Thanks for making it look like a real love bite. You almost made me cry just now. Of pain.

A Breather

Ha! I need a lil breather. A lil space. A lil moment for myself. I cannot believe that I have been going out on Every Saturday without fail since 9th May 2009. Every Saturday until this coming one also. Gosh! And these two mths only, I had three brides in my bloggie. But of course there will be more to come. Suddenly this year, I could never been more busy. Until I felt so tired that I thot I have lacked some rest.

First thing first, only a few entries back I mentioned that I need to have an image overhaul. But now I have to make known that a MASSIVE change needs to be done. All the fats have to go, lifestyle has to change and many other changes that I am not sure if I could adapt and achieve. Geez. Until I do not know when and where I should start.

Let's just put that aside for now and let me think on how I should begin the CHANGE.

Yesterday, sis asked bro to send her to JP and bro dragged me just so that he could get his bbq chicken. Initially he wanted to go to Yew Tee but since sending sis to JP, told him of the ones in NTUC hypermart. That's also based on babe's information as I have never stepped into that not-so-new gigantic market. Thankfully managed to find the chicken and headed home.

And the things I'm looking forward to this week will be the making of diaper cake for babe. She'd be delivering somewhere in late July only but I have already gotten the diapers from partner. Almost wanted to grab the box of 9pc gift yesterday at John Lil but did not due to the long queue at the cashier. Will do so probably during the Dress Hunt this Thur. Can't wait to start on it!

The following weekend we would be spending the evening at Orchard Hotel for the dinner. Quite excited for that cos more people are involved and that would probably be the last time I'm gonna meet the P.O.P.ped students! And I can't believe that some of the students are gonna be in Year 4. You mean 4 years fly by just like that? I haven't even achieved much within these years. Sigh.

Till then this kinda fusion food will vanish from my menu. It's time to get SERIOUS with the MASSIVE change. Haiz.

Another Wedding...

Aha...Another one down the road :D And it's sis other bestie! CONGRATS to reese n rid!
Gimme a break from the bells plsss....heeee.

Ooooohhhh I smell the weekend already! Mmmmmmm....Aaaaaaahhhhh

the First

Finally, I've got the pictures. It's been in the camera all this while lah only that the tv shows cannot be missed from Mon to Wed. At that also, I've already missed Desperate Housewife for this week. Shux!

Without further ado, the wedding went great! I wish Malay weddings are similar. Just marched in twice and take photo at every table. Okla. But then again I would still prefer for them to come to the dais rather than we walk over to their tables. hee.

Thankfully, bro sent us to the hotel. Novotel. Where I had memories back in attachment days. Was located there for the trishaws. Long story. Shall not even start on it. But I had to call cab to take us home cos bro didn't volunteer to pick us up and there was a long queue at the taxi stands. We were seated with Bro's fren, the wife is sis' fren and her bro was my fren's neighbor while mom knew the husband's mom. Confused? Me too. But let's just say it's a super small world. Aha. The guy who tapped me and asked if I was Marzuki's sis back in the 1990's at Beauty World. Still rem that clearly.

And besides that, bumped into colleague in the toilet. And she happened to be the husband's classmate. Okie. Very the coincidence.

Anyways must thank my pal for providing me with Nid's contacts and guess sis was quite pleased with her make up. So here's what happened.

Altho the bride's sis' fren, I was quite close to her. Travelled with her a few times and knew her family as well.

That's me with the bride and the Mom! I must say I looked pretty GOOD.....For a DRIVER...Yes, I was the impromptu driver for the bridesmaids.

The bridesmaids, right after their doll-up session. Sis had her first makeover by a Mak Andam. She was pretty excited!

For the dinner banquet, sis changed to her tailored Sari. Here, she posed with the bouquet for the Bridesmaid. Of course la she wins me in the Looks dept, Brain dept BUT not the Survival dept. heee.

Birth Order - Personality

Birth order personality (extracts from Shopping Lifestyle)

Firstborn
Because firstborns are usually tasked with more responsibility from young to look after their siblings, they typically grow up to be dominant, super-responsible, organized and competitive.
Did I tell u my brother arrange his comb, cards and other items in his room? Super old magazines stacked nicely that you can sit on them. Batteries stood next to each other as if ready for parade.

Middle child
The middle child is a people-pleaser. He or she is diplomatic, and it's difficult to get them to take a stand. The middleborn also tends to be a little manipulative.
My sister....The one who pleases ALL of her friends ALL the time.

Lastborn
Lastborns are friendly, creative individuals who love challenging the status quo. They're more adventurous than their siblings and are the risk-taker in the family, although they also tend to be needy at times.
EHEM EHEM...Obviously, how true! But needy?? Nah..Just a lil dependant on the older siblings more than others. Risky? Absolutely. Taking the BIG step ahead of them, rem?

Only child
An only child is used to being in the spotlight within the family, so he or she tends to crave attention. Being an only child also means that he or she is unlikely to know very much about the opposite sex.

Twins
Twins have a strong bond and therefore always think of the other before making a decision. Their thoughtful nature makes them considerate romantic partners.

One for the Memories

I knew this day would come

The day I'll lose all of my charm

And things will be totally different

Cause You and I created THE distance

There goes the Jokes, Smile and Laughter

Something that I will take some time to get over

Memories I will keep for remembrance

I hope I am of your good riddance

Oh Great!

I did not expect my weekend for the 1st week of July to be so eventful. Cos I wasn't looking forward to anything much for the month of July. But who would knew, things came up unplanned.

On Fri we were invited to be G.O.H. for the FOC closing ceremony. G.O.H?? Yes I have no idea what the hell it was. But according to the kids, it's Guests Of Honour. Ok. I thot we were supposed to just come and give moral support. Personally, I would take the opportunity to check out the new faces so that it would not be such a shock when they come and collect the cards later. hee. Since the event will only start at 6.45pm whereas we ended our duty at 5.25pm, partner suggested to go for brisk walk. She so smangat brought her shoes, extra clothings (but din change into them in the end) for the walk. I told myself to just wear wateva I'm wearing that day since it's gonna only be a casual walk. It took us about 20mins going up and down the slope and when we finally reached the garden, we were all touristy and dreamy imagining ourselves being at Japan all over again. So that explains the pictures galore at the bottom of this entry. haa. And you'd think that I had probably gone bonkers walking in my top and casual pants plus waisted belt. You wouldn't wanna know what happened to it. No! It did not break or wat but when I removed it, there was stain of sweat all around my waist. Nice! hee.

And the FOC thingy, oh my gosh! For once, we were treated like VIPs. Haha. We were given front row seats and even got their Ts, Cap and Badge. The most touching moment was when they played the video of the preparation for the camp which clearly protrayed how much effort they've put in. I mean even when I was involved in an Open Day event, I would have always been exhausted but theirs is a 5 day camp. I could nvr beat that. And being part of the 'family' really gave u that sense of belonging. I cld tell that the newbies enjoyed their camp thoroughly what with their own piece dance and super-heart-shaker cheers! I was just in awe seeing them performing like they've known one another for ages. I was so privileged to be part of the event. :D So tell me again, how do I hate my job?

And that was also the day that he touched my head, scratched my thigh and kicked my foot. Thanks hor. So here's the pics for that after brisk walk...

And now I realised that I love flowers that do not come in bouquets but those that are still on their plants... :D I so love partner's cam phone...Can I get one too?!

The reason for this pic is that tree behind me. It has cotton like seeds hanging all over. And I heard this type of trees, those Pontianak will like....eeeeeeeeewwww.

Then we saw this tiny white flower. I just had to snap a pic with it. Check out my glee! And my oh so stubby nose. bluek!

I dono what is this but I thot I posed nicely with my School Lanyard hanging! How perfect!

Oh wow! Huge petals of YELLOW flowers! And it goes well with my top!

My Saturday started as early as 5.30am. Made our way to Yew Tee as instructed then saw a few of familiar faces there. And I did not expect what kinda group this is going to be but maybe like those makcik2 Boyan group but little did I know, that the bus came equipped with karaoke!! Oh great! So after passing Gelang Patah, they on the karaoke full blasted all the way to Simpang Renggam. Gosh. Even my MP3 doesn't compete with their karaoke. And they just danced in the bus. I just felt that I was in a Bang Bus. The other version. And what's funniest was that I was taken back to my chdhood days whereby everyone was just blabbing in Boyan. Thankfully I understand the language well. They also brought along Air Batu (those ice with syrup in long plastic). Along the way they cracked jokes and thanks to this trip, now I know my Bibik can sing! hehe.

We only reached home close to midnight and I could still find the time to keep all the stuff that we bought. No. I will not make a trip back there again cos I think that the place is so overrated. And for now, I'm kinda tired of trips cos it's been 3X I got outta our island for the past 3 mths. Japan, Perth and now Msia. I think it's time for me to just mellow down a bit.

Yup. Out of Singapore again.

My chdhd fave thing besides Paddle Pop! too bad it melted already. And this one is Nenas - Pineapple actually. I tried the Asamboi flava too!

Paris?! Not quite. I wish! Only Nilai 3. Can't they come up with something else? There's only Kain - no laces n lining kinds btw, Wedding stuff and that too according to their own style and lotsa carpet and tikar shops.

See! The karaoke thingy. U wldn't have imagine how KECOH it was! Even the bus captain was dancing to the music. Spare me pls!

And I wish I cld sleep in a little late today but NO. Cos sis was the bridesmaid, her mekap artist came at 8.45am and I have to fetch the other bridesmaid. After both done, sent them to the Bride's place and after that drove them both with the Bride's bro to the church. Gosh! We even got lost finding our way to the church and it was just at Boon Lay. But okla at least we made two rounds only. hee. Then sent mom to her Wedding invite at Bt Batok whereby I saw Babe's husband whizzing by me. My Sunday has not come to an end yet. I still have the Wedding dinner to go and it so gonna end late. Wish me luck for my Monday. Hopefully it shan't be so blue!

Startled

I've been waiting anxiously for my hp bill and when I received it, I was flabbergasted. Yeah. I remembered upon getting my hp bill for the month of May (I had my Japan trip rem?), the bill was still under $50. But this time around, it skyrocketed to almost $80. URGH! Thanks to the Perth trip. My usual bill is easily under $40 every mth but anyways, managed to settle it. Which means less shopping this month. The GSS mth. Oh Well!

Last night, in fact the last few previous nights, I have been feeling so damn sleepy. Is it cause of the party that I slept at 3am? And now I have to repay those hours every single night. Yesterday, I was watching MJ exclusive when my eyes just could not open anymore. So I gave in and went straight to bed. Smsed him and he wanted to sleep at 11 instead but I just dozed off.

Slightly before 11pm my hp vibrated. To my surprise, I was awoken by it cos normally I would already have pengsan. The number seems familiar but then I pressed Busy. Again it vibrated and again I pressed Busy. hee. Then came an sms. But I just couldn't bring myself to send a reply.

So this morning, checked with gf. Indeed she has smsed and called. :D

By the way, been missing him these few days. These two weeks to be exact. Our calls are always less than 10mins and meets less than a few hours. We did not do any activity together at all. Ish.

But then again I have these three movies to watch and I really wana watch them.

Simply because I miss Sandra Bullock! Ok ok. Ryan is DARN cute. But it's a girly movie. Not sure if I should watch it with him or the GFs.

And next would be Ice Age 3. Not sure if I could find the time otherwise will just get the VCD/DVD to complete my Ice Age collection. Fell in love with the lil girl in Ice Age 1 and the movie is after all about saving the Earth.

Finally SUNSHINE CLEANING! Because, it has CSI-influenced plot. Isn't it clear? Anything CSI, I'm IN for it! Life is Afterall a Messy Business. :D

And guess what time I have to wake up tomorrow?? 5.30AM. Yes! Five thirty in the morn!!!! On a SATURDAY!!! Urgh. Just to make it for that trip.
