a new spectacle cloth for me

This silly boy came over to my work place after his half day at work just to give me this.

In case you don't know what this is, which I am sure you don't, this is a spectacle cloth.
Hmm all my old specs cloth certainly do not have any pictures imprinted on them..this is so cute.

He says to throw away my old specs cloth and use this instead.
Sometimes..he does the weirdest sweet things..

Cloudy with a chance of meatballs


Watched Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs in 3D.
Din know that 3D costs much more, $13 for each person.

While it was fun because it was our first time, I don't tink I would want to try it again.
Reason being the googles were quite uncomfortable..can't get used to it.

But the movie itself was not bad, the climax kept me glued to the seat and the ending was sweet. =)

New bicycles, yeh!

It took me and Benny 3 days before we could find suitable ones.

1st day
- Rushed down to AMK after our work on Friday.
(have to apologize to my colleague Belinda who ask me out for hotpot a few days bfore, and after tons of dilly-dally, I still went out with bf instead. Shd slap myself in the face..where is my independence? *smack myself in the face*)


We took a bus from AMK even..only to know upon reaching there that there are no bikes that are within our bike range..they only sell high-end ones...sigh...was so pissed.

Lesson: You should always check out if they have your budget range bfore heading down.

2nd day
- Went down to IMM where Giant was, supposedly they have a good range of bikes. But no, most of their bikes belonged to a brand that had quite bad reviews online. Disappointed again.

3rd day - Went down to a bike shop at Sembawang, and finally! Now Benny and I are the proud owners of two pretty bicycles. Both are the same brand but his is a mountain bike while mine is a ladies bike. Both are in the $200+ range and are both paid by me..cos I am giving Benny the bicycle as his birthday pressie..so that's it.

NO restaurants, foodcourts all the way.
But I am quite looking forward to the cycling part!
We shall save on transport and the enviroment!

Just to share, I got a bad fall on my bicycle yesterday nite though..scraped my leg and a finger badly with bleeding. To top it off, the bicycle landed on top of me.

Yep, my first bicycle ride and I was more concerned about whether the bike had any scratches.

Sticky notes encouragement

I have been told countless times that my work desk looks like a tornado prone area with papers and junk strewn every other direction.

So finally I cleared my desk after more than half a year worth of hints, and when I came to work the next morning these two sticky notes were stuck to my moniter...cute! =)




Granted, it's still not as neat..but I am on my way there slowwwww-ly....

clearing out my wallet

Recently my colleagues have commented that my wallet was very bulky, and by a stroke of co-incidence(?) my bf happens to think so too.

But he went one step further, he helped me to clear out my junk!
Can u believe all this is in my wallet? Can't believe it...

A very bad scare

Last nite I had the one of the biggest scare of this year. It goes like this:

The rest of the family were not at home, save for Benny and me.

It was around 2am and I was watching some drama serials while he was sleeping.

In the middle of the drama serials, I went to the bathroom in the kitchen and also to take some water.

The moment I came out of the kitchen and turned right to walk to my room, I saw this figure standing sideways right in front of me.

It was standing up facing the wall, it's head hanging down...


I tell u, my heart nearly stopped.

I can't even control myself from opening my mouth and emitting a shrill scream.


Me: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

Benny: (turning his head groggily towards me and in a pissed off tone) Why you shout so loud?

Me: (screaming my head off for another 2 seconds)

Neh neh..Even though my mind already registered him, but the signal wasn't sent to my mouth yet.


After that, I realized he was standing on the weighing machine that was put just next to the wall and he was looking down at his weight.

I ask u, who wakes up from his sleep and goes silently to the living room to weight himself in the middle of the night??!!!

And I thought it was a......................

After that he apologized to me lots of times while I hyperventilated and gasp for the next ten minutes with tears running down, while I tried to explain to him why I was so terrified.

I didn't even hear him open the room door...how can....next time must give me ample "notice" k?

"Happy" mooncake festival

Feeling abit lonesome now. Mum is with my niece in the living room and there are nobody else. Usually, sis will return at this time but then she is currently in Switzerland for holiday(so envious of her!)

Now its just us and my music. That's the reason why I like a big family in future, more fun and laughter to go around. Granted it takes a little fortune to have kids..today is mooncake festival, yet it is raining in the evening. Din manage to see anybody carrying lanterns, such a spoiler. And to tink Benny and I wanted to go buy lanterns, look at the moon and eat mooncake..haizz.

Nevertheless, I did eat two pieces of mooncake in the comfort of my own home.
Happy mooncake festival guys.
