the silliest thing i've done today

I missed kickboxing, so I made a last minute decision to attend FF AMK at 4.20pm. When I left house, it was already 3.55pm, so I took a taxi and spent $8 on the ride.

I reached 5 mins earlier, the class starts on the dot. After kicking for 15mins, I was out of breathe, and dizzy, so I went to bath.

Very -_-|||

In Mourning

I'm mourning for my right front tooth, coz it lost a leg yesterday while having steamboat.

We were using metal chopsticks, and someone, I bite too hard into it, and the edge dropped. 

Super sad, coz I had always been so proud of my 2 huge front teeth, and the perfect rows of teeth.

Now it just looked disfigured, super angry with myself for being so clumsy.

Had a bad start on Monday, bad ending on Sunday.

Argh!

Gay and Gay

Just made my very first few gay friends yesterday. Conclusion: They have better skin, they are better dancers and they are damn friendly!

We were at Taboo yesterday, I basically was a gate crasher coz I went in through my friend, July. At first, I had no idea they were all gay, I just thought they want to sabotage the birthday boy at a gay club. Then, July told me they were all gay, I was really surprised, coz I didn't catch the gay vibes, and really, they all so cute leh!
Maybe I didn't catch the gay vibes coz I didn't have gay friends. I do now. =)

Once in the club, I couldn't stop observing them. All those meat, see and touch. Ha ha. July told them it was my virgin trip to gay club, so all asked me how's my experience. Seriously, it was great! However, through their questions, I realized how insecure they could be. Birthday asked me whether do I felt weird being with them. I told him I do not. I didn't tell him just because they are label queer doesn't mean they are weirdos. In fact, they are so fun to be with! Another asked, if some of the guys were more effeminate than me, I had to agree with him, coz some of the guys can twist their waists better than I do. Well, my waist is hardly visible, maybe that's why.

And really, despite dancing at close distance, it doesn't make me uncomfortable, just ticklish. Ha ha ha. One kept raffling my hair and gyrate to my butt, which was because he was drunk and makes me a little not used to it. He even draw an imaginary line down from my cleavage to my naval. A very weird experience to let a man touch that way knowing he will not be turned on. Lol.

When we left the club, a couple was so nice to hold my and my friend's hands when we walked to Maxwell Food Centre. Really sweet and thoughtful guys.

I wonder,  if nice and cute guys were gay, what is the chance of us ladies finding a straight guy who is nice? All the straight guys I knew so far are either married and jerks.

URun 2012

Joined my first 10km today! Better to start small steps first, 21km last year was a shame, clocking at 4 hrs! Anyway, my aim for today was 1.5 hrs, and I did it! My finishing time was 1.28mins! Woohoo! If I jogged all the way, maybe even 1 hr 15mins!

After the 6km mark, I was sprinting for 1min, and then brisk walked for 4 mins... and I stopped at every hydration point... considering all these rests... 1.5 is not bad already right?!?

My next coming run is 21km, and I aim to complete in 3hrs!

I can do it!

Fitness First BodyFirst

So, I had completed the BodyFirst Program. It's been an amzing hell, felt that my body is all firmed up. Too bad I can't remember much about the exercise I did...

5 more days till my 10km, I am so unprepared!

I think i got picked by a les.

Attended a very atas Italian dinner last Thursday with my company. It was a treat by our new partner, a witty 65yo French guy. His wife is gorgeous!!!

So, it was my very first atas dinner, seriously. I used to watch in movies, where these atas ppl attended dinners, they would be served with wine while waiting and chit-chatting. Then we were served the meals course by course, with our wine kept refilling. The meals were fantastic! It was at No Menu, at Boon Tat Street. I had no idea how much it is, but it was an authentic Italian restaurant, run by an Italian family! They were so friendly, I was just browsing the books, and the chef mum came to me and started explaining to me!!!

Then I went to join my colleagues in the chit-chat, although I still felt a bit awkward.Once I started warm up,m everything felt good. I even greeted the wives of my colleagues like an ang moh, with kisses on the cheeks, LOL. Seriously, I enjoyed it.

The dinner ended at around 10.30, but we chatted until 1am. Boss asked if I want to continue with them, I stunned for a while, and said yes. Well, it was a good time to bond, and being my first outing with them, I don't want to miss. We had wanted to go club 83 but it was closing, so we went to a karaoke pub a few units beside. Boss didn't join us by then coz he was probably grounded by his wife. LOL

Anyway, the pub was called HQ Karaoke and Pub. At first glance, I thought there was a lot of females. Throughout the night, while waiting for our turns to sing, we discovered that all of them could sing, even the bartender! Damn good! So good that my colleagues and I were too paiseh to sing. I was the only chinese, so I understand what they sang, my colleagues, all non-chinese, were awed by those powerful vocals despite not understanding a single chinese word.

I secretly thought there were a lot of les... but I just thought they could be those arty-farty pple who doesn't work regular hours like us. Anyway, we had such fun time that my colleagues refused toleave after singing the last song, Partly because we waited for quite some time too, as it rotated between the tables with 2 songs, and we happened to be the last table. Being their tech support, they asked me to "troubleshoot" for them out of habit, and jokingly. Seeing how 为难 the bartender was, I told them there was nothing I could do since they already plugged out the system. Sometimes, these ang moh, really had warped thinking, They really think I simi ma en hiao!

After paying the bill, we headed out for the door. I apologized to the bartender (les) once more, and she gave me a squeeze on the shoulder, and told me that we should come back when free. Seriously, I don't know if that was a hint or something, but I just got all ticklish and siam, telling her it was itchy. You know how sensitive my shoulders can be. LOL. She's actually quite nice looking.

My colleague gave the cab driver fee when I boarded the taxi. So paiseh can... but the next day, I returned full amount to him coz I don't wanna feel like owed him something. He's spanish, so he was being gentlemen, but  factually, I'm just not used to being pampered by male colleagues this way. It is an Asian thing?

So I went google on this pub, and found out that it was opened by Irene Ang (Phua Chu Kang's wife Rosie). Oh... no wonder the crowd type was so concentrated...

I don't mind going back again, coz they are all so friendly!

BodyFirst part 2

So I had my second lesson of BodyFirst last Monday. True to his words, my instructor gave me a set of see-easy-but-tough workouts.

I started with push up, 15 times.

Followed by this set, when I hold dumbells close towards my chest, then with one leg on step board, and I gotta butt push outwards, and push my arms in front. Woah!!!~~~!!!

The ball twist looked simple, but it was so strenuous following up after 5 times. All I had to do was to grab a ball, from my left side, I lifted it up and turned to my right, with my knees bent. -_-||| Almost gave up.

Then I had to throw punches in cruch position, high~~~

As  if the dumbell push wasn't enough, I had to do dumbbell arm raise with one leg raise!!!!

Last set was like paddling during swimming, except that I was doing it with face up and my legs in 45 degrees. Definitely good for those who wanna trim their tummy!

The amazing thing was, I started my cardio (10 minutes threadmill) before 2 sets of the above. Then when I went for cycling, I did one last set, it was easier than the first two. I thought that it would be tougher since my body is tired, but no, coz after building up the muscles during the first 2 sets, the muscles was there to help me in my last set. Interesting!

Having my last lesson tomorrow, I still not sure if I wanna get my PT Zin to continue. Coz like he said, it's expensive to hire a personal trainer. Haiz...

See how...

super sianz evening

well, I asked LL what that guy thought of me... LL, being the straightforward LL I knew, just told me straight that he had no sparks with me.

I think he 看照片被电到,看本人被吓到!

I can't help thinking about this: if I were slimmer, and I would probably look prettier, would he say otherwise?

Nair mind, it's his loss!

However, can't help feeling sianz, coz that striked off one of my NY resolution: get a bf!

Fuck lo!

Gonna use the time that would be wasted on pak tor to take master degree, as least I will be happier, stressed but happy.

Gonna stalk more A&F cuties!

Exciting Day

I finally met that guy! We went on a 3some date to Korean BBQ with him and my buddy LL from NTU. He was LL's friends, and had saw my picture with LL, and he got LL for my contact. When LL told 有人被我电到,我是爽到~~~

Knowing that a guy was interested in me, I was super elated! So I aske LL to give him my FB. However, after fb chatting for almost 4 months, I almost lost interest already. So I whatsapp LL, and then she planned this outing for us. As he was a really close friend of her, I also knew a lot of things about LL. Turned out that it wasn't easy fot LL to arrange an outing as she always so busy, so she seldom planned outing coz she was always afraid that she can't make it last minute.

I really appreciated her effort, and she will be glad to know that her effort will not be wasted. =)

I really like his voice. =D.

I'm so gonna re-label my posts when I'm super free. So messy.

Update: Nothing is so gonna happen between us. 不来电!

OMG, I'm still at work!

Well, I didn't stay until so late. I went for gym class before coming back to office, some stuff need to wait before I can continue working.

It's my own fault really, I had put in the wrong backup tape, hence, the backup didn't start until I came to office in the morning. And since the recent backup is taking 12 hrs to complete, so here I am, waiting for it to finish and change tape.

I loved my gym class! 原来body strengthening is so fun de! And pushing your body to work so hard, I felt happy too!

Hmm.. a list of what I did today:

1) My PT went through my physical checklist, and my aim. I want to jog correctly for my 10km marathon. 90minutes to complete 10km is achievable!

Usually, for different distance, the training program is also different. I might be wrong thouugh, can't really remember the weeks for 10km and 21km.
5km - 5 weeks
10km - 8 weeks (?)
21km - 12 weeks (?)
42km - 20 weeks

Of course, the earlier the better! I'm late for my 10km...

2) Then we tried the threadmill to see how I jog. I'm jogging at around 6km/hr. My PT, Zin said my jogging method is quite ok, except that I need to lift up my knee more, so that I don't strain so much.

3) Here comes the best part, I need strength training. I laid down on the floor, with dumbells on both hands. My legs were raised 90 degrees with knees bend. There, I had to do 2 sets of 15 each of wide chest lift, straight arm lift and raise arm lift. YOu might not know what I'm talking, so I show you the pictures. (To be added)

4) Followed by squats, with the assistance of 2kg ball. Then I had to stand on one leg and lift the ball repeatedly.

5) I did 1 minute planking, almost died. Followed by crunches and leg lift 45 degrees. When I did the second planking, I had to lift one leg up, I died on the spot. ha ha.

That's all I did, but my legs are still shaking a bit lo... I just burned 600kcal.

Oh yah, for my weight, 1kg is 4500kcal. Time to stop popping bak hu rolls into my mouth. :P

It's the end of Jan!!!!

I always love end of Jan, because it is always endless birthday parties for me. =) I have 1 round after another with different groups of friends!

Had my first birthday treat by Jerlyn last Thurs when I met her, after what felt like 8yrs? Yeap, that's how long we had not met. She was so sweet, remembered that my birthday (ok, Facebook can check...) was on Sunday, so she treated me for dinner at Out of the Pan at Raffles City Shopping Centre. Must try their crepes!!! Awesome!!!

Fri was quiet and Sat , Jia and I went to do manicure and pedicure =). Then Jia bought 步步惊心, so we had drama marathon until 2am!!! Then I went to sleep coz I cmi le, Jia continued though. Throughout, I was busy replying to birthday greetings! Ha ha, I even 'haoliao' to Jia I need to reply birthday msgs on FB.

On Sun morning, first thing I did was screamed at Min, because she kept taking my pads. That's not why I'm so pissed, I was angry because she left the empty package in my cupboard! I was so fierce that even my Dad came into my room and asked what happened. After screaming, I fell back to sleep until 3pm. Jia and Min went to market with Mum, so I quickly catch the episodes I missed. When Jia came back, we continued until 9pm.

Dad's taxi happened to break down and sent for servicing, so it was the first time after a long time that he was here for my birthday. And for the first time, we didn't have to hurry cake cutting coz he had to go to work. We cut the birthday cake at around 9.15, after Min came out of shower.

I had 46 FB msgs, 6 sms (2 from the same person). see how trending goes? =)

Then on Monday, my collegaues planned a surprise cake for me! The cake was so sinfully nice!!! But also difficult to cut coz it was so creamy! anw, CHOCOLATE CREAM! High end cake!!! Yummy!!! see pic!!!
The brand of the cake. Atas can?

Not so atas after cutting.

That's what left after cutting, and I wanted to eat it for dinner, but someone's action was faster and ate away the 2 roses, left a care slice in the box. =(

So in a fit of spite, I brought home the chocolate they gave me. :P Had wanted to share in the office.
So pretty! How did they know I like ribbon??? =D

After which I met Esther babe. I am blessed with sweet friends, she gave TFS facial masks, lip balm and REESE PEANUT BUTTER CUPS!!! All my favorite things in the world in a pretty little bag!!!
I am in love!!!
After dinner at Sarang, we went A&F again! This time, we both bought the red cardigans!!! So so so in love!!! It was winter sale, 30% off, so I saved $30!!! Heng I didn't rush into buying last time. =D

Looks better under the A&F yellow light (which was sg flag type of red) and in real, slightly dark pink red.
And of course, how can I miss taking polaroid with the cutie???
I caught the close-my-eyes-while-taking-polaroid bug from Esther!!!

Schweet!
Happy Belated Birthday to myself! =D

I'm now an assisted mouse clicker

I can't believe it what Mr. Lawyer asked me to do... Change the freaking bullet points' font weight!!! OMG, can't you just highlight and then change? What's so difficult? U R A LAWYER!!! U SUPPOSE TO BE SMART!!! AND I"M NOT YOUR FREAKING SECRETARY!!! It's bad enough I had to take your calls... Fine, I'm taking everybody's message anyway.

Then, I had to help him click print, shun bian jiu suan le, but aren't u over utilizing me a bit?

And and and, I'm suppose to assist and troubleshoot your problems, not to preempt your problems. You try liao cannot, then I'll help you. And not I stand there and wait for you to see if it happens.Seriously, the option is there, then it should work lah!

Lawyers!

I don't dislike this guy, I kinda pissed off at him when he did such silly things.

Procrastination kills the deal

So much for putting effort in my new job, my good image was killed because of my procrastination.

I should have known that the bosses are raking in millions, hence, Blackberry is their world. The lawyer in the officer had been receiving his BB mails intermittently. Most of the time happened when he was out of office. My instinct told me that it was something to do with the network, yet another instinct told me it might be because he was tapping on the licensed network (not enough license to go around), hence he could only receive emails when he's in the office. So, I thought I just wait for the license to come then voila, problem solved,

On Fri, he got so mad that I did not solve his BB problem asap, spoke to me in a louder than usual voice. He was very worked up, and seriously, I totally forgot how corporate users can be very mang zhang. And there I was, sobbing silently, getting the only help I could think of, the license vendor.

Seriously, being a lawyer, he was more logical than me. He ruled out all the possibilities for me, while talking to the vendor on the phone. It was there, I discovered a setting I never probed before. His BES was connected on WiFi!!! Which explained why he couldn't receive emails once he's out of office. I'm pretty sure this was the cause, and not license problem.

Really learnt a very serious lesson: Never procrastinate, and dig all means to solve! It's my job!

红羊咩咩, 你一路好走

First was my uncle, now an ex-colleague.

It came as a very big shock, so shocked that I was shivering for 5 mins. How could the guy who accompanied me on my first marathon training died so suddenly! Like all the people we read in the news, like my uncle!!!

He even treated us lunch when he passed his IPPT last year!!!

Why is every NSman or NSF who fainted died after that? Something must be very wrong with the way they resuscitate fainted people.

Wrong skill? Wrong pressure? Wrong medic happened to be there? Would he still die if a real doctor is there?

There are too many whys that we will not get the answers.

Hongyang, you will be missed dearly.

Thanks for the badminton game you invited me.

Thanks for the tips you taught me during the game.

Thanks for the accompany at Yishun Stadium when I did my first marathon training.

Thanks for the encouragement you had given me. Without it, I would not have completed 21km.

Thank you.

We may not see each other everyday, or talk to each other everyday, but you were a great friend, a nice colleague, and a good employee.

So long.

So.. Another good friend got hitched!

So, I was once again asked to be a sister. What to do, I do a really great job! And I really enjoyed basking in their blissful day, almost felt like I'm marrying off my own daughter/sister. Hee Hee.

So SH and I spent the whole night doing the yoga cards, well, we both returned to my home at around 1pm...  coz we went to do some last minute grocery shopping, then we had only 4.5 hours to bath, rest and prepare the cards. She went to sleep after the yoga cards, while I continued with the love contract. By the time I finished I had to bath and get ready to head out.

As I did not have any sleep, I practically ate non-stop throughout the day as it went by:

1) At bride's hse: 1 pc of marble butter cake + 2 pkts of drinks
2) At groom's house: 2 pcs of cream cakes + 2 pkts of drinks
3) At their new house: 8 slices of BBQ pringles + 1 mini magnum (I'm now known as magnum gal)
4) Cocktail reception: Holding onto a bowl of peanuts snacks
5) During the lunch course, I helped myself to a second serving, or third or fourth.

Seriously, if my mouth stopped, my brain would stop and I would sleep. Which it happened twice in the car rides, once at the reception table while I was manning the guest list...  -_-|||

When I reached home, I was immediately knocked out, I didn't even wash off my makeup!!! Which was so unlike me...

Let the pictures do the talking!!!
Looked delicious, isn't it?
Inocent but potent!

very original form...

this one, looked a bit creepy

yoga pose cards! nice hor?

me and the bride

Happy for them!
They only had 1 VG and 1 PG. Seriously, I dislike the VG coz he haolianed about Amei riding on his white bike during her concert, and I really didn't pay attention what.. sat so far some more...

The PG was easily amused, he laughed when I dug the bitter gourd; when I sang "Sy in the house!!!" as I showed distaste for the VG's idea of singing the classic wedding bells; when I said "我承认!!" to his comment "中间那个最cute的"; laughed some more when I carried the basin and acted "给我一点吃的吧..." He really thought I wanted to eat.... then laughed when I said I was just being playful. got so funny meh!!! 我会误会的叻!!! 哈哈哈!!! joking.

And due to lack of sleep hence the high sugar intake, I was super high and cracked a lot of jokes. YW even said I was very Man when I ate the marble out of my hand instead of using place and fork... We ate like that at home also what...

As for why I am magnum gal, it was because the groom caught me eating their mini magnum, without knowing that his bride gave me the permission. The PG, upon seeing I was eating again, took a shot of me. -_-||| so groom kept telling pple I ate a lot of magnum... will pose the magnum story soon!

Anyway, congrats! Shuying and Junwei!!!

AMeiZing World Tour 2012

OMG!!! AMei is such a powerhouse!!! I think I enjoyed her concert more than Stephanie's. Amei had rather simple outfits compared to Steph.

Anyway, there was this 40 minutes which she sang songs spontaneously, and she sang Justin Beiber's "Baby", so cute! Then she got the band to sing too, and the guys could sing, except they couldn't really reach the high notes as it was a girl's pitch.

My pics quality ain't very good, need a better camera!
I like her entrance!!!

Belting songs!!!

See how full it is!
