wokay! it's been such a long time since i last blogged! as in the normal paste-all-the-photos-i-have-and-just-write-abit kind of blogging..

so here goes!

really nice sunset seen while waiting for the lift to come...


8 may 06, monday

was supposed to meet puaysian and have a chill out day with him..BUT at 9am..my job agent person woke me up for work! supposed to start at 11am at The Gateway...

guess what company?


yeap! MASTERCARD!

job: receptionist
time: 11am to 5pm
rate: $7 per hour
total earned: $42 (CPF not taken off yet)

it was a good job to have! i had to help the receptionist there, rebecca, answer calls and receive visitors. the thing was..as it was the headquarters they didn't have much visitors...

and calls were rather easy to be transferred as they were many more asian ppl working there compared to my last job at datacraft asia...

problem was..i was so used picking up the phone saying 'good afternoon. datacraft asia.' i almost said the wrong campany name like many times...

i went like, 'good afternoon. err. mastercalll.' oopsy!

on the way home, i passed a field with many cows! look!



9 may 06, tuesday

was my chill out day with puaysian..was pretty fun! i blew a eupho mouthpiece!

on the phone home, i saw the cutest cat EVER!


its fur was the patchwork kind, but it was really a mess of brown, black and white...not very outstanding...

but it took my breath away......

10 may 06, wednesday

spent the afternoon packing the house..then vacuming the floor..BOY! is there lotsa dust lying around...

haa..my mum wrote something on the piano...using her finger and the layer of dust over it...

it read, 'agnes and bernice are very lazy'

!!!

well..i cleaned off the layer! so now bernice is the lazy one!

i somehow find that i'm the only one in the house who packs! grrr....

went to meet the pharmacy girls in the evening to celebrate weiling's bdae...

somehow i didn't take any photos!

the 6 of us went to Hans..then we headed to the Skin Food shop and then to U2 where yingjia got a little something for her new other half and a matching pair to go with too!

reached home rather early at 10pm...cause sock hoon wanted to catch her da changjin!

11 may 06, Thursday

had a second job assignment....

dragged myself out of bed at 6.45am to head for newton...

it was at Goldbell Towers..


haa..working for Dumex this time...


job: erm...admin but mainly filing and shredding...
time: 8.30am to 5.30pm
rate: $6.50 per hour
total earned: $52 (CPF not taken off yet)

i sat in the big boss' office doing the menial stuff..felt so overwhelmed! on the other hand, the chair i was sitting on was rather comfy!





okay money for the slack work...i mean other than having to lift heavy stuff from the capboards to the table...how hard can filing and shredding be?

but i was super tired at the end of the work day anyways...

and my heels were killing me!

but i still went to meet puaysian at.....

bustling orchard!


we dined at pepper lunch...


very expensive lae!!! for fried rice...and you have to cook it yourself somemore...

i no like!

from where we sat, we could see yoshinoya..

if you squint hard enough...think you should be able to read the black words on the promotional poster...


anyways..it reads, 'stay awake with yoshinoya'

puaysian says at a glance, it looks very much like, 'stay away from yoshinoya.'

it does! doesn't it?

the guy!


and tired me!


he had some funny name beef set...


and i had erm..i think it's called black pepper beef rice set...


haa...it looks alot like Liv Tyler is drinking from the straw doesn't it?


waiting for my blistered legs to rest...i think the tee looks quite nice on him lae..he doesn't think so...boo!


12 may 06, friday

was supposed to go swimming but it poured!!!

so we stayed home except for dinner at macdonalds!

yay! curly fries are back at macs! far cry from the tasty A&W ones..but still curly fried all the same!

my mum was packing her wardrobe and she found my dad's old raybans! sans one side of the lenses..

bernice and me fooling around with it!




i think she looks rather good in aviators lae..on the other hand think i better stay away from them!

13 may 06, saturday

WANTED to wake up early to get my mum's fave char kway teow from opposite TJ since mother's day was around the corner..

but i overslept and woke up at 9am instead! gosh! my alarm clock seriously doesn't work on me anymore!

the hawker centre opp TJ..the char kway teow there is REALLY good...


walked around the wet market trying to look for a florist...



gosh! i haven't been to wet markets for some time now...and i realised that wet markets are no longer wet! the floor was pretty dry and the smelly smell of the market seemed to have diminished a great deal!

the florist was a very small one..mostly selling flowers for prayer...

so i decided to go to bedok central market..cuz i know the florist there sold bouquets that are nice and affordable!

while waiting for the bus to the interchange...i spotted this lady with super long toenails...


she had them painted stripes of candy colours..and i couldn't look away! it was a fascinating sight! i had to constantly pretend to swipe away flies so that i had an excuse to look down...

this is the florist i was talking about! i realised there were two stalls side by side when i reached...so i chosed the one with fresher pink roses!


ta-dah! happy mother's day mummy!!!


after that i headed to suntec nydc to meet up with my tkgs band section mates!


was super late! shijia, fenting and ivy had already finished their lunch by the time i reached! fortunately clara came later too...heeps!

after that..i had alumni band..

derrick is not playing anymore because of his national day rehersals! DRATS!

i so feel like not going for band anymore..with all the pro ppl gone...i feel damn insecure lar...

and lately this is what i've been up to...


yikes..it looks rather dirty but it's really not that dirty...

it IS rather old though...i started this when i was in sec 2...

yeah..little ambitious me! trying to complete a 6 ppl cross stitch...

at the end of sec 2, i only completed the guy with the yellow bowtie...

last year, however! i started on the two person on his right!

haa..and i found it again this year after packing my place! so i'm hoping to finish as much as i can before i lose the interest and it goes into hibernation somewhere under my desk again...

going blading with sher and huilin later!

puaysian is so happy i found other ppl to go blading with..haa!

anyway more updates later...
