Surprise!!

dont you just love surprises? =)

i love surprises too~ and of cause i love giving my other half surprises as well! hehe! =D

yesterday woke up and head down to my office at Orchard to sign the letter of appointment, after which shopped around alone! gosh, i didnt really enjoy shopping alone in the past, but i guess people do change~ cuzi just gotta know that shopping alone can be so much fun! first of all, you dont have to wait for people and end up wasting precious time, and you get to see anything you want without worrying about whether your friend or bf gets bored. =) only problem is, you are unable to get opinions from them, and for me, i always end up spending alot!! thus, shopping alone for me, is harmful to my wallet! haha!

but dont get me wrong, its not that i dont like shopping with people now, i still enjoying shopping with my girlfriends! =) cuz its way more fun!!

anyway after shopping around for ONLY an hour at Wisma, i bought myself a pair of skinny pants from PepperPlus, and a pencil skirt from G2000~ i ALMOST spend more!! cuz i spotted many pairs of heels which i like from a couple of shoe shops, and i spend at least half an hour trying on shoes! but end up empty handed, cuz those pairs that i like didnt have my size!! *sulks* hesitated between 2 pairs which had my size, but after much considering i left without buying them, cuz i just didnt like them as much as the other pairs that no longer have my size!

and so, off i head home~ upon reaching home, applied medication for Muffin again, and after which i started on my first task for the day~

Cookie Baking!! =D Hehe! i've always love baking~ from cookies, to brownies and certain cakes~ but always didnt have the time! or sometimes i just too lazy! but this time, i'm pretty determined to bake cookies for my other half!! had wanted to bake him brownies, but he didnt like brownies, and so i ended up baking cookies~

everything started out well, til......my oven started malfunctioning, and keep tripping the electricity of my whole house!! *sulks* I NEED A NEW OVEN!! ok that aside, after trying many times, i eventually found a way to get all my cookies baked, but with more procedures and time involved!! ended up, the cookies didnt came out nicely as planned, as i couldnt get hold of the proper time of baking, while switching the oven on and off several times~ thus ended up, only the first batch of cookies came out nicer, while the second and third batch came out a lil too brown! *sulks*

but luckily my oven didnt totally died on me midway! else i dont know what to do!! haha! probably rush down to the electrical appliance store and buy a new oven on the spot? LOL!

Cookie Baking in process~ This is the first batch! 2nd and 3rd batch i was too busy and forgot to snap photos!

k that aside, after everything was done, left the cookies to cool down, and i rested and updated my blog, after which i started on my second task for the day!

Card Making! yea, another thing i enjoy doing! hehe~ i love handmade stuff!! (not tt im some cheapo, but cuz i feel that it shows more sincerity, filled with my love!! LOL) cut, paste, decorate and wrote a short message~ and i was done! =)

Now, you all must be wondering, whats the occasion?? Nope, not his nor my birthday! Nope, not our anniversary nor any special date to remember!

Answer is, It was all VERY RANDOM! whahahahah~ who says that surprises, cake making and gifts are ONLY for occasions? hehe!

I just suddenly thought of doing them, and just went ahead to put them into action! =) Well, the thing with me and my bf is, we DONT celebrate any of our monthsary at all~ and we didnt even exactly had a proper celebration for Valentines day. Instead, we always get each other gifts and go out for nice meals on random days~ =)

When 2 are in love, theres no need for splurging on one another, and only celebrating particular occasions.
When 2 are in love, everyday together is a day to celebrate and just be happy with one another.
When 2 are in love, you dont have to only wait for special dates to celebrate and give one another gifts and surprises.
When 2 are in love, everyday together should be a day to put in effort to keep the flame going and making one another happy in all possible ways!

=)

and so, after im done with everything, i called him to make sure he was still awake, and told him i was gonna go wash up and sleep soon. i didnt lie. i did went to wash up after i hang up the phone. brushed my teeth, took another shower and washed my face. But instead of changing into my PJ, i changed into a plain tee with my Levis shorts, and drove over to his place to give him a SURPRISE!!  And thats my last task to end the day!

and indeed, he was extremely surprised when i knocked on his door and he opened it. hehe! the look on his face and the reaction he gave. PRICELESS~ =)

im glad i made him smile after his tiring day at work. im glad he likes the cookie and card i made. im glad all my effort was appreciated. im glad to be in his embrace with him smiling so widely! =)

when he's happy, im happy!! =D

End product with the card! =) Content inside is only for him to read, thus i only post up the front cover~

Ok, im just kidding, i wouldnt bear to!!

But i'm considering to get a hair wig with short hair!! spotted a few really nice ones while shopping at Bugis awhile ago, and also in some online shopping blogs. But kinda worried it'll go to waste if i dont really wear it! Plus i was told i wouldnt look good in short hair. Im dont know too, cuz i havent had short hair since i was 12 or 13? Judging from the above photos, please give me advices and comments yea!! =)

And heres some picts with my darling muffin, taken on 18april2010, before going out to watch Monga! =)

Drinking my daily essential, Brands Berry Essence!! Yummy~

taken this morning!! My 'just-got-out-of-bed' look with my PJ on!!

Craving Satisfied!

this morning woke up and we went back to my place to pick Muffin up to bring him to the vet to check out on his skin rash! apparently after his grooming, some rashes appeared on his butt area and it seemed to bother him quite abit plus it kinda hurts him too, as we tried to touch the area and he screamed!!~ *heartaches* this is the first time its happening, as throughout this 2 years it has not happened after any of his grooming before~ so i decided to bring him to the vet to have it checked and to get some medication to apply on him!

glad the vet told me its nothing too serious. gonna apply the medication given and see how it goes, hopefully it'll heal soon! another thing now is that, Muffin has to wear the e-collar! hahaha! he's super clumsy with it! keeps knocking into things~

Muffin with his e-collar on!

after the vet visit, we send Muffin back to my place, and rested for awhile before we head out for our Brunch! (yeap since we woke up, we've yet to eat anything yet! been rushing around the whole morning til 3pm!)

and thanks to my sweety boy, my Sushi craving was satisfied at EastCoastPark's Sushi Tei!! =) yummy yummy!

Our Food!!

Unagi Sushi, Ebikko Sushi, Tuna Salad Sushi, Spicy Miso Ramen, Golden Roll, Hotate Teriyaki, Hamasaki Ika Tempura!! =)

Us @ Sushi Tei! =)

after our brunch, we head back home, lazed around and rested, and i downloaded and purchased a new game, 'Driver', on my iPhone for Dear! First game i actually purchased!! But since he likes it so much, guess its worth it! =) Watched him play til i got tired and eventually doze off~

Side Track~ Gonna purchase a few more apps and games soon!! Up next would be 'Angry Bird' and 'Monopoly'!! This is so addictive! all the paid apps and games are so fun!! gosh~ hope i won spend too much money purchasing these iPhones apps and games! LOL! =p

back to topic~ in no time, he got tired and joined me in dreamland too! woke up later at 10pm, and we head out to packet dinner back with a cup of Slurpee!! Both of us were coincidentally craving for it at the same time! Hehe! Mixed both Apple Freeze with Coke flavours!! YumYum! came home to eat and watched some HK dramas til bout 1am before i head back home myself. upon reaching home had to park the car very far as the carpark at my place is full! *sulks* too many car, too little lots! anyway got home, washed up and chatted with Dear on the phone til 2am before we both decided its time to sleep as we both had to wake up at 8am tomorrow!! He had to go to work, while i had to go to office to sign my letter of appointment! =)

Our Slurpee!! =)

Movie Date to watch Monga

yesterday, 18April2010, spend my day at home with my family, and at night went out for dinner with my family. after dinner, came home to rest abit before bf came over to pick me up and we head down to Cineleisure to meet XiaoQiang and WhyWhy for our movie date to watch the show, Monga 艋舺!!

Monga (艋舺), directed by Niu Chen-zer (鈕承澤), is a classic gangster tale. The scene is set when Mosquito, played by Mark Chao (趙又廷), a new boy in the high school finds himself being picked on. His brave response catches the attention of Dragon, played by Rhydian Vaughan (鳳小岳), who is the son of Geta, the boss of the Temple Front. He is inducted into the gang and forms part of the group of five that also includes Monk, played by Ethan Ruan (阮經天). Monkey and Dog Boy complete the line up.

The film, set in Taipei’s Wanhua district in the 1980s, evokes a nostalgia for a not so distant past. It perhaps represents a time of innocence, a world on the cusp of old and new. This sets up the plot with outside gangs seeking to move in and change things, while the Temple Front resists change.

Mosquito has grown up without a father and looks up to Geta, played by Ma Ru-long (馬如龍), as a father figure. Xiaoning, played by Ke Jia-yan (柯佳嬿), is Mosquito’s love interest. However, she plays a fairly peripheral role. This is essentially a film about a male world of brotherhood and betrayal. There are quite a few fight scenes, some of which are quite violent. However, the real focus is on the relationships between the gang members.

Overall Monga is a well executed production that successfully builds dramatic tension and sympathy for the key protagonists. With the benefit of a wide opening Monga has already enjoyed success at the box office and will no doubt draw big crowds over the Lunar New Year holiday. It is an entertaining film and the audience will certainly enjoy it.


Above are extracted from HERE

Overall i find that its a pretty good show!! Its got hilarious yet touching scenes, on top of all the actions!! Would give it a 4/5 popcorns! =)

After the movie, we head over to Swee Choon Dim Sum for supper! Gosh, i ate so much i almost exploded!! Below are photos of the food we ordered~ The food are not too bad, but kinda pricey!! =(

Our Dim Sum Supper!

Eggtarts, XiaoLongBao, Drunken Chicken, Fried Carrot Cake, Noodles, FriedRice, etc etc.!

And after our filling supper, we all head home to rest for the night. I was really tired and knocked out soon after washing up. =)

Self Pampering!!

Self-pampering is one of the best way to keep yourself happy, and also one of the best way to burn a hole in your pocket!! =p


Yesterday woke up and we went to Tampines Mall to have Brunch and shop around. Bought myself a nail top and base coat as my current one is finishing soon! Also i bought a new Toner recommended by Lisa. (will try using it first. will blog bout it if its really good!)

After which, we left TM and head over to Lisa's place as i wanted to get my SK II Facial Treatment Essence (aka. 神奇水 Miracle Water)!! Had troubled her to get 2 bottles for me! bought 1 bottle for my Mummy Dearest too!! Yay!! Finally got it! Heard many good comments and feedback about it from my friends, including Lisa and Rain, and thus wanted to try the wonders of Pitera myself! =)

My SK II 神奇水!! Hope his works wonders for me!! =)

(If its really that wonderful, i'll surely blog another post specially bout it! so do look out for it within probably a month's time!)

after which, head back home and lazed around. at night, we head out for dinner with XiaoQiang and WhyWhy. And as usual, since there aint much to do at night, and its been our latest craze and hobby, we headed down to EastCoastPark again!!! hahaha~ Played the Big Sweet Land again! after which the guys played Billiard while i chatted with WhyWhy throughout the night~ =) Since we're both Virgos, we clicked very well and had lotsa similarities, and thus had alot to chat about! I as initially still kinda bored that we might not have the same topic or interest due to our age gap!! =p

anyway we accompanied XiaoQiang to fetch WhyWhy back home since its a long journey! (she stays in the west while we're in the east!) after which we head back to ECP to get bf's ride and went to packet food before going home to rest for the night!

As for Today, woke up and he send me home. shortly after i reach home, my parents went to pick Muffin home from his full grooming and dental scaling session!! and now, he's very naked, petite, skinny, lamb-like, and smelling very good!! hahaha! yup, had to trim off his long fur, as the weather is pretty hot these days and his fur keeps tangling up!! plus i aint home everyday to groom him, plus i will be starting work soon! wont have as much time to accompany him. miss his long fur though, cuz i always thinks that he looks cuter with long fur! =p

in the afternoon, it started to rain heavily with scary thunders and lightning! but me and Mummy decided to go over to Jessie's place (owner of Jess.sg / bagsshopper.blogspot.com) for her open house sales anyway!! there were lotsa bags, and i had hesitated between a few, but after much consideration on its material, style and durability, i ended up getting the Kate Spade Small Basic Nylon Henry in Red! =) Its the size i was looking for, the material is pretty good and its looks pretty nice as well!! Happy me!! I almost got  the Prestwick Noel Quinn which is in black patent leather and the interior is of a quality that has shimmers. But alas, i didn't get it as i feel that the interior color will run very quickly and as I'm not one that takes particular care of my things, I'll probably scratch the patent leather very soon~ though it really looks nice!! Had wanted something of another shape, but didn't see anything i was looking for~ and Mummy didn't see anything to her liking as well, thus she didn't buy anything this time round. hopefully after i start working, can save up to buy some stuff for mummy dearest, lil bro and daddy! =)

Kate Spade Prestwick Noel Quinn - the bag i almost bought!

Kate Spade Small Basic Nylon Henry in Red! - the bag i eventually bought! =) my FIRST red bag! haha! quite an impulsive buy, but after buying it home, i quite like it! something to brighten up my closet and bag rack! finally something different! not my usual kinda buy, and not something i ever thought i would buy. well, there is always a FIRST time! hehe! so yea. this is my first time, my Virgin Red Bag! =D

_____________________________________________

anyway a lil update on my life!

i had hesitated about this and intended to post this only 2 weeks later when i officially commence, but...... i worry I'll be too busy or tired by then, and start neglecting my blog...

haha. ok. bad excuse. i couldnt keep this from my sweet readers anymore! hehe! i finally found a job!! yeap, a job i like, and i job I've been wanting. at least its my area of interest and its part of my future goal! =) though i have to start from scratch since my past 4 years of working experience isn't exactly related, and though the remuneration isn't as spectacular, I'm still happy and glad i got the job!

it'll be a stepping stone for me to reach my ultimate goals, and i do hope this time round i would have really nice colleagues and bosses to work with! everything is confirmed and I'm so looking forward to it the official commencement of work in 2weeks time! =)

not gonna disclose too much details though, only my closer friends would know. =) but I'll be working in Orchard area~ so dear friends, next time we can meet for dinner and shopping after work in town! =) Yay!! But that would also mean, I'll do a lot of shopping! haha! *worry* hope i wont burn a huge hole in my pocket while working there~ LOL!

meanwhile, WISH ME LUCK! =D

Detest NATOs!

NATO = No Action Talk Only

i've met way tooo many of them. and i really hate it!

they are those who tells u that they wanna do this this this and this, but 'this' just never happen.

they say that they were gonna bring you some where or do something, but it just never happen.

they plans the whole day schedule, and make you book that day just for them, thus rejecting meet ups with other friends, but end up that day just never happen, as last min they had something else on or decides to stand u up and meet their friends instead. and i ended up wasting the whole day waiting and not doing anything fruitful.

well, ok. first and foremost. i wanna admit, that i myself could have been a NATO myself in some point of time in my life. but i must justify that i have my reasons for them.

i know i've mentioned to a few of my ex bfs that i will cook my favourite 'dao suan' for them.

and i know that i told my current bf that i will cook a nice meal for him.

but all these just never happened.

and you know why?

i've already told them the reason.

and the reason is simple.

its NOT that i DONT want to cook for them. i just never had the chance to.

Cuz they hardly come over to my place. How else would i be able to cook for them if they dont come over?

You may say, why dont i go over to their place and cook for them. Well, thats cause i dont wish to make a mess of their house, and its not my house nor kitchen afterall. I may not know their kitchen well and end up messing up and in turn not be able to cook well as i may panic when i cant find certain things in the kitchen (and this actually happened before at my ex's place, thus i develop a phobia for cooking at bf's place. but i'm still able to cook simple stuff like fried eggs and maggi noodles of cuz! way too simple! and not much utensils or ingredients are needed at all!)

but this alone wouldnt affect anyone's life at all, as i didnt waste anyone's day or time. so it aint as serious!!

argh!! really hate NATOs!!!

now i dont even know when to believe them or not. and i no longer have that anticipation nor excited feeling to meet these people anymore. cuz now i'll usually tell myself that it may never happen. so i rather make my own plans or do my own stuff til the very last min when its really confirmed.

total excitement wrecker. -.-"

do u guys have NATOs in your life too?

Crap!

crap crap crap and crap!!!

Google Adsense just disabled my account as they suspect there is a risk of generating invalid activity. -.-" totally crap.

People click to go in to those ads so they can find out more and see if those are what they are looking for. Without clicking, we wont know what it is. But that doesnt mean that it is a MUST to sign up or purchase anything from these ads. and this is just part of the risk that they should bear if they want to set up such online advertisement.  Plus its not like they are paying out a few dollars per click. its just a few cents!! can u imagine how long it takes just to accumulate that few cents to get a US$100 to get paid! I waited so long for my next payout which is pretty soon as my account is already generating the minimum payout amount. =(

But they just simply disabled my account without warning and confiscated the amount that was generated and accumulated over the few months!!

This is just so unfair, dont you guys agree? I felt so cheated!! =( =(

NOT gonna help Google Adsense anymore! Have removed all Ads and also the Google Search Engines from my blog.

Total waste of my blog space and loading time. -.-"

Guess i'll just have to search for other ways to earn money online !!

Cinnamon Melt is LOVE! ♥

its been a boring day, morning woke up and send BF to work, after which came home and played with Muffin, checked on some stuff, booked Muffin's grooming appointment, and other misc.

 

Taken before i head out to meet Caelyn!

in the evening, went to CityHall to meet my BFF, Caelyn. and we proceed to Raffles City.

I could see her face looks kinda sad. Well, it was a bad day for her, and many things didnt seem to go the way she want it. I shall not share too much into details. Just kinda glad at least i could be there for her to console her and lend a listening ear, and also to help out a little in the situation. =)

that aside, back to my day with her. we went in search for our dinner, but as everywhere was crowded, we ended up at Mos Burger. Plus i happen to have craving for Teriyaki Chicken Burger and Ice Milk Tea! haa~

Our Dinner~

After dinner, we shopped around til all the shops were closed. Sadly, we didnt buy anything though. And so we ended up at McDonalds, since there aint much place we could go at that hour. Ordered my favourite Cinnamon Melt!! Yummy~

Our Ice Lemon Tea and Cinnamon Melt! We're Lovin' It! =p
Seriously i was so happy when i saw the advertisement on TV! i jumped up and literally shouted, "YAY! Cinnamon Melt is BACK!!" Hehe! Its just one of the yummiest dessert in Mcdonalds! hope they wont stop selling it so soon! =D

In the Toilet! =p But the lighting and backdrop is nice and good for phototaking! Hehe!

Yours Truly! =)

Random spot in Raffles City! Nice backdrop! And she took candid photos of me while i was on the phone with BF and deciding where would be good for him to pick me up!

Chatted til my BF said he was tired and gonna slp soon, and so we decided to call it a day. As her BF's ride couldnt start up due to a flat battery, she took a MRT home. Poor girl, she was already having a bad day, and more bad stuff happened to her. Caught in the rain earlier on, and the aircon at Raffles City is extremely cold, even after she wore her cardigan and wore a long sleeve top, she is still cold! Adding on, having to take the train home and had an incident with a 'tiko' guy who bumped into her butt and also the aircon in the train was cold, she ended up falling sick by the time she got home. =(

Sorry Sweets, should have send u home!! Sigh, feeling so bad about it.

Anyway, BF came to pick me up from Peninsular Plaza, and thus i had to walk thru the drizzle to get there as well!! =( firstly there were so many weird scary looking people walking around thee, and that place is just so dirty!! *faints* there were a couple of mices/rats running around me!!! I was initially pretty freaked out!! But after some time, i thought they were pretty cute and fascinating, and decide to video them. Til a guy suddenly pop up behind me and say, "oh u taking photo of mickey mouse?" and "wow your camera pretty good, so clear!" *faints~* i almost wanted to LOL!! but also i was kinda scare that he is a 'bad' man. Was almost gonna start panicking, til i saw BF ride!! Quickly i left the scene and rush over to his car. *phew*

after he picked me up, we went to Geylang to packet some food back home to eat while we watched a HK drama serial before we eventually went to sleep. =)
