Ni Yao De Ai - Penny Dai

I admit. I was a fan of Meteor Garden and I think I still am. Oh well at least, I definitely don't mind watching the whole drama again.

This is my favourite song from the show...Penny Dai's Ni Yao De Ai.
"The Love That You Want" I don't understand the MV though.

Online shopping

The first time I tried ordering online.
Out of 2 tops, I only wore one.

The second time I bought stuff online.
Out of 2 tops. I wore one.
There was a belt. It's still hanging in the cupboard.

The third time I did it.
Out of 6 tops, I wore 2 and gave away 2.
Am still wondering what to do with the other 2 sitting in the cupboard.

I don't know why I am so stubborn.
When the experiences so far have been far from good.

I am trying a fourth time.
I just received a mail saying that they've despatched the goods out already.

I should receive the things today or tomorrow.
1 bag and 2 tops.

*crosses fingers*

:(

Sad leh.

Am told by quite a number of folks that the curls I did are not enough. And it seems to be loosening up so much that it looks like just a body volume perm now.

Sigh. Waste money?

evolution

I used to listen to English songs when I was a kid. I mean come on, I've got two "kantang" parents...and a "kantang" brother as well...went from 98.7FM with my brother to 90.5Fm with my parents...

And then in 1993. By some strange discovery, or myabe it was through a friend's influence, i discovered Chinese music. And I switched to 93.3FM. For a long long while I was listening to Mandarin songs for more than 95% of my time.

It was a strange thing actually. I was listening to Mandarin songs, watching Chinese dramas and getting hyper over singers like Alex To...But I was struggling with Chinese in school. It was quite a paradox really haha.

And for the next 15 years, it was Mandopop all the way.

Till 2007, 2008 and 2009 when I found myself switching back to English songs...

Things happened naturally...and now I'm back to being a Class95FM listener...

I tried listening to 933Fm that day and found it a little jarring to my ears haha..

Alex To - Lover

We were listening to Chinese songs. The first time we've done that haha.
And hearing some of the old songs made me nostalgic. I remember the below song being one of the nice ones from 10 years ago...

It's Spring!

I've come to realise that...

The days are getting longer!

Springtime! :)

It's 640pm now and the skies are still as bright as ever! :)

jab jab jab

I went for vaccinations today...:(
Had 3 jabs...and another oral vaccine.

yellow fever
thyphoid
hepatitis A
polio

I went TTSH with the intention of only having the yellow fever jab and ended up with 3 more vaccines....gosh.

Is Africa really country with so many rampant diseases?

Took 2 jabs in the left arm and 1 in the right.
Left arm feels a little sore now...

curly fries

I did it. Finally. :) A step into being more open and positive.

I permed my hair haha. After talking about it for 2-3 years.

But I think I won’t do it again till maybe a few years later or what….I sat for 5 hours in the salon. I thought spending 4 hours to rebond my hair last time was bad enough…This took 5 hours haha…My bum was a little numb at one point in time lol.

Mixed reactions from people haha. Aunties say nice…peers say quite okay, some said nice also. The Coll and another guy said there’s no difference, just a wavier version of my previous straight hair. My brother said there’s not much difference too, just some waves only…

One thing I know. Maintenance can be quite a chore for such manes…

Birdie Time Again

Ok, trips are confirmed.

28 Feb – 3 Mar: KL
6 – 13 Mar: Nairobi, Kenya

But damn it, I need to go for a yellow fever vaccination at least 2 weeks before the Nairobi trip. And maybe even a thyroid vaccination too…..

I don’t want needles!!! :(

What the??

Omg. I don’t like the cover done on the two songs….
And the styling of the two boys was horrendous. Two pale vampires with curry-puff hair….errrrrr……

Yellow

I was dressing up this morning. I picked one of my fav tops…
A comfy yellow half cotton, half knit-wear type of top to match my beige skirt…..

I put it on.

It went over my head. My arms slid through the sleeves…..And then I heard an awful sound………………

*Spppprrrrrrriiiiiaaaaattttttttccccchhhhhhh*

Oh shit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WTH!

One big hole appeared right in the front of the blouse. A seam had decided there and then to part ways...A seam which runs right below the chest area……

*wails*

I hope it can be mended….Hmm……

This Morning

6 SMS-es in 20 minutes.
Is this considered harassment? I think almost?

But they were from the man who controls how much bonus I’ll get in May.

Oh, woe is me!

Oh, don't we all love to compare?? Haha

The Tech Era

I've got a feeling.

That the youngsters of the next generation will start saying things like this.

I cannot stand people who jump to conclusions.

I had this on my MSN nick today. "Je Veux". Which in French means "I Want".
JM is someone who understands French.

JM: Hey Congrats!!
Me: Huh? Congratulate me for what?
JM: Cos you're engaged!!
Me: Engaged?
Me: What the hell makes you think I'm engaged???

JM: Cos you wrote "je veux"
Me: Pls lor. Don't anyhow jump to conclusions lor.
Me: In any case, "je veux" means I want lor.
Me: It doesn't mean "I do" or " I will" lor.
JM: haha ok.

Like WTF?
I couldn't be bothered to reply.

5 minutes later.

JM: What is the thing which inspires you most recently?

omg. irksome.

Me: Truth be told. NOTHING.

And yes, that killed the conversation.
Just the way I wanted it.

I needed to concentrate on work anyway.
So adieu to silly conversations and people who jump to conclusions.

Voila, load up ladies! It pays to paint yourself a little!

There are times when I can't resist posting something.

This is one of those moments. :)

Ed Alleyne-Johnson

It's music like this which accompanies me while I work.
