饭来张口, 钱来伸手

I read the chinese version article on Wu Qing Kang's 2359, about this girl who carry a LV bag to school and wear Shisedo makeup only. I was trying to find the link, and it so happen that my fren had posted up the article on her blog, link here.

Apparently, the girl in topic was misquote, see her blog here

Well, some facts were twisted to show the whole Singapore, "Wah biang, this girl like that also can ah! Win liao lor, she buay paiseh meh?" when she probably had just a really generous parents in the first place. I had a fren whose parents were indeed like that. She was carrying chanel, prada at age 14!

What we see is very surface, coz the reporter just skimmed whatever essence he/she could and made it into a tasty headline which capture everyone's tongue and wagging. At first glance, we will be thinking, wah, she so good life! Wah, she dunno how to think for her parents meh?

We aren't her and not in her life, so we cannot judge her. Of course, carry an LV bag and wear Shisedo makeup indeed sounds extravagant for a 20 year old. Actually, girls like are all over, just whether who makes the money to buy those objects.

I also want a branded bag if I can afford.

饭来张口, 钱来伸手, who don't want a life like that?

Long weekend... Long Tuesday

The highlight of my 3 days rest was actually winning $8.50 in Mahjong (excluding losing 60cents on Sat though) and coaching Min Min for her Chinese exam. Seriously, Min Min made a perfect Ang Moh Kia, her Chinese 是不标准到很像外国人讲华语咯!

Bought myself a new tech toy today, Casio Ex-S10, wanted to buy ink cartridges then leave IMM, but was lured to Challenger with their email promo, so I went to take a look, and ended up buying another promo item which was $100 more than the email promo I saw, but with better specs. Suay suay, I got a defective one, not very obvious, but very buay kam wan, coz I did my post-purchase research and realise this casio camera is not as good as it's other counterparts, and I loogee a lot in terms of freebies compared to bargaincity.com.sg, so I gonna go request a one-for-one exchange tmr, and if cannot, I gonna make noise to CASE and Casio. I just make noise to Comfort taxi feedback coz one driver make a big round to reach my house. 33.8km vs 24.8km leh! Extra $15 you know!

Tried the camera just now, not bad, somehow I wish I was more careful when testing. One idotic point about this camera purchase was I have been researching on Olympus, checking out the price, read reviews, and I ended buying Casio.

Still, I love the Casio, it's sleek, slim and steady!

My blog's biggest fan!

So far, I had not formally introduce Jamie's blog, JauntyJamie

She had shamelessly proudly copied some phrases from my blog to hers, including titles... She's definitely one of my biggest blog fan...

But her style is more towards dark humor, which I quote: "my sis was a nice person, let me choose the thickness of the hanger HAIz…-_-||”

Apparently, either I am at her standard or she is at my standard. So, Jamie, we look forward to your upgrading to Jia's level.

Can't believe I shed tears at work today... all because of a bitch who rant and made some remarks which I find it an insult, partly due to some hormonal imbalance currently, my tap just turned on and flow for an hour. Tried to stop, but it got worse when my very nice colleagues comfort me about what a bitch she was.

BITCH!!!

Ominous Feeling...

It's been a week since I got the happy news, and I'm still awaiting The Call. It is a trend to keep people in suspense?

My fren asked me to tender only when I get The Call, just in case. Does that mean I might not get the job after all?

Been feeling restless at work, coz I was anticipating so much for The Call, that every time my phone vibrates in my pants my mood climax, thinking this should be it. Ended up was the round 2 interview from last week, picked my watch and wrong phone call.

Haiz... Big project coming in, uber sianz...

Reigning MJ

After a short hiatus from the weekly mahjong scene, I once again win $9.20 at the table! Mu ha ha ha... all thanks to Jia's suay mouth... :P

We got more than what we want

We were helping Jamie to search for this parent's letter workshop thingy and we found more than expected: Jamie's Darkest Secrets
  • 听写 60/100
  • Tests paper which all got less than half the passing marks
All stashed under the table!!!

I am a liberal person, hence I gave her the choice to choose the thickness of the clothes hanger and the number of strokes she want. I even offer here tips of choosing of a lesser torture hanger leh!

That ought to instill some fear in her about lying to us, and oh yah, bought 2 more assessment books for her to do.

Of nuns and Pizza Hut

Whenever Mum goes on a road trip, our dinner almost ended up in Pizza Hut every time, be it eat-in or takeaway. So that was where we had our dinner yesterday evening.

Mum always exclaimed, "Today sure no luck!" whenever she sess a nun, be it botak one, white robe one or orange one. Apparently, she had successfully implanted this idea on Jamie, who also said the same thing when we were at Junction 8 last night. I didn't see the nun, but I knew one was around when she said that. How good our family education is! We are good at "好的不学, 学坏的!"

BTW, anyone of you have have lobang for SE W950i? I looking for this phone leh... Dun mind 2nd hand, but if it comes in newbox even better. =)

Happy Happy Happy!

Had a superb day yesterday because of a superb news! La La La!

Great!

I finally removed that irritating wisdom tooth after 3 pathetic years, and did dental cleaning after 7 long years!

I had gum infection on the back, because the lower jaw is in a particularly awkward position where many rubbish got trapped there, got a hole in the gum you see, plus that full grown wisdom tooth keep poking into the lower gum, so got all these shitty problems.

The scary part about removing wisdom tooth, is not the plier but the needle. To numb that small area, the dentist used 2 cartridges of anaestatic, and mind you, it look like my metal mechanical pencil x 100 times the size. The only pain I felt was when the dentist pressing on to my mouth, I felt as if she was trying to tear open my lips instead!

是痛的lor!

I finally can chew my food properly liao, the past few days were like gulping food down in their original form.

Apparently, not only is my lips tiny, the size I opened my mouth is also small, coz the doctor asked if that was the largest I could manage. Heh... If she had shown me some cakes, I might open even bigger. Despite my humongous size, or maybe due to my overload fat, the lower wisdom tooth had no place to grow and will need to have a surgery to extract it out, and need to take x-ray and stuffs, which means more money.

Shall think about this when the next infection occurs. :P

On MC

I'm on 2 days MC, so I don't have to apply leave for tomorrow le, which is a good thing. The bad thing is I will look like hamster for the interview tomorrow.

I woke up with a swollen face this morning, horrified to the max. I looked as if I stuffed a da bao inside my left cheek. By noon time, it had reduced to the size of char siew bao. It was the size of ang ku kueh just now, hopefully tomorrow it will diminish to size of chupa chups.

The gum felt rather painful, I woke up at 4am to put some ice to ease the pain so that I could continue sleeping, not to mention the 4 panadols I popped before that. I never take Panadols if I could and last night it was really a last resort, coz it was so painful that I couldn't speak.

It was diagnosed as gum infection, as I'm having my wisdom tooth growing yet I had to choose that area to hit with my toothbrush, hence the area ballooned. I was advised by the doctor to go to a dental surgeon, which was a horrifying idea coz the word surgeon reminds me a man with white mask and hold scalpels! Then the doctor said, he meant dentist, which put a less scary picture in my mind.

So, 一不做二不休,I fixed an appointment on Wednesday evening for dental checkup, after 7 long years. Heh. Iwonder if the doctor will be so spontaneous to extract my tooth on the spot.

Toothache? Gumache? Mouthache?

I accidentally hit the back of my mouth yesterday morning, and by now, it had developed into unbelievable pain on my gum. My left side is as swollen as possible, but it was denied of its appearance because of my already very look-alike swollen face.

HOW TO WORK TOMORROW? It's freaking painful and I don't feel like talking!

Hope the pain subside by tomorrow, coz I have an interview on Tuesday lah!

Most prob taking leave on Tuesday again, for interview and for dental. =(

Fat Finger Sydrome's 5 minutes Shame

I was msning with Mr. Hobbes, one of those rare rare days you know, coz he's hardly online. My Fat Finger Syndrome's acted up and clearly gave him an amusing 5 minutes. We were asking how was each other day and my reply was "I went bugis with my sex fren, walk walk shop shop lor..", only to clear my reputation 10 seconds later, "I mean my secondary school fren..."

All of people... Argh!!!

Went jalan jalan with PZ today, never did I think that PZ likes shopping so much as well, hee... Both of our eyes went blink blink when we see the word, "sale". =) And I did burn quite a hole in my pocket, but happy!
