today WW and me went to Hort Park for a hike. we hiked all the way from Hort Park to Vivo, through Mount Faber. about 5plus km in total. the physical ache is killing both of us now (in fact he's asleep already now!). the hike's totally worth it because it's perfect exercise for the weekend, and i really feel i need to shed some kilos.
while he is asleep, i went on facebook. seeing an uni friend who just had her 1st baby, and some friends who have so much going on in their lives and those who have hundreds of friends, all these made me a little lonely. it seems as if everyone is thoroughly enjoying themselves, with so much activities going on in their lives and some just seem so blissful.
do i seem boring to those who come upon my profile? actually, in reality i feel really contented and blissful. only that i dont bother to update my fb profile or post photos up.
so i went to ask WW, if he will love me forever. he said yes. this is enough for me.
He is really cute and pampered by us and I really love 3 of his actions - 1 is that he will insist on a belly rub whenever anyone from the family comes back home. he will lie on his back and expose his furry belly for us to rub. if we dont give him some pampering, he will keep barking at us. a little video to show you all:
the second action is that he will do a little stretch of his body and hands! really cute and he does this at the most unexpected moments:
the third is really hard to capture, and i will try to get one of those videos up for you all to see. he will do a little butt rubbing on his own. he will sit on his butt and pull himself across the floor for about a few minutes. it's really funny coz it means that his butt is itchy!
yesterday my mum celebrated his bday by giving him a chicken drumstick. i think he has no idea whether it was his bday or my mum was in a good mood.
i told WW that i wish he will remain as cute as he is now, even if he gets older and older. happy birthday to Prince Alf and to Princess XW too (if she happens to ever stump upon my blog...haha)!!
yesterday was a fun-filled day for me and WW! we went to Jurong Bird Park in the morning, i have to say the bird park has changed a lot since the last time i went (which was in primary school). it is very much fun! the zoo still wins, but bird park's animal shows are very good too, we especially liked the Birds and Buddies show.
my favourite bird - Penguin!
after the bird park, we went to watch Red Cliff 2 - which i really anticipated for a long time! for someone like me who has really limited chinese history, i have to admit i never like to watch any show regarding the 3 kingdoms before. but red cliff has totally changed that! very exciting and it makes me inspired to maybe watch a 84-episode china serial about the story of the 3 kingdoms.
after the movie, it was dinner time for XW's bday celebration at Okinawan restaurant at tanglin shopping centre. food's not bad, but the portions are small! the beer is really good and cheap too (if you order before 7). and then, dessert at PS cafe!
it was day of indulgence and actvities, so much so that i felt a little sick at the end of the day - no thanks to my flu!
there is no such thing as: recession, economic downturn, retrenchment!
today me & cp went to LV to get her 2009 agenda paper, it took 20mins for someone to attend to us. it was madness, this time of the year is the same as last year's, there is absolute no sign of economic downturn at all. people are buying and spending their bonuses away - which helps the economy back right?
the LV salesperson says they dont have commissions, so i wonder what is their scheme like? is their only advantage of working in LV the personalised LV stuff that they can get? coz i only know that they will get discounts off the stuff they buy, but it has to be tagged with their initials to prevent them from selling it off.
i was saying to cp that i think i can make a good salesperson for LV and possibly make big money. or maybe miu miu? imagine all my miu mius lining up my wardrobe!!! possible career switch for me!
today seems exceptionally long at work...really tired and no mood to work. i'm glad it's over and here comes tuesday.
everyday is a countdown to the weekend, monday..tuesday..wednesday...thursday..friday (finally!). but the weekend comes and goes SO quickly, there is just no way to completely savour the happiness of 'just doing nothing'.
i was supposed to post this last sat..as promised to *lovedust..but i got lazy, so sorry! if you see this, leave a msg ya?
i will not give up this blog, even though i seldom write so dont worry guys :) it's just that i dunno what to write about mostly, so that caused a bit of writer's block over this year.
i also dont want to become one of those who writes about their lives everyday as if a drama is unfolding in their lives everyday. most of all, i dont want to write about my sad and emotional thoughts, coz that will worry people and it's not in my character to open up to everyone.
some updates that had happened to me in the past month: 1. i have started my new job last month. back at tanjong pagar, near amoy street. i love that market, and i often buy lunch back to office - esp niang dou fu, chicken rice, nasi lemak, desserts (my fav is sea cococut with jelly).
work on the whole is great, as i love the jobscope. i still have to do sales, but no need to find new business. i only need to manage a set of key accounts. it's a US company but it's doing well despite the current economic situation. i think i may be able to stick around here for a while.
2. i have been sick since last sunday! i fell victim to the flu virus - definitely a mutated one as it has been bugging me for a full week already. i lost some of my voice, have a sniffling nose and not feeling good as a whole. i infected WW..and hope he will be well soon.
3. i can't wait for Christmas! it's got a wonderful festive mood that one cannot possibly miss. even though i dont celebrate it with faith, I love the entire gift-exchanging and receiving and the parties and gatherings with friends and close loves..i hope xw's party will be awesome!
4. after Christmas, it will be 2009 very soon! new aims, resolutions (which CP will need to turn over a new leaf again) and a brand new year. i always love the entire 'changing oneself for the better' mood which comes with the new year. i hope some wonderful things will happen in 2009 :)
i'll write soon, you guys take care and enjoy Sunday!
i had a fabulous weekend! and it was really FAB coz i went shopping and spent a lot of dosh!! and i don't mean a few hundred, it was a couple of thousands. however, considering it was my first time in 5 years of my working life that i actually spent so much at a single boutique in singapore, it is a worthwhile investment right?
on sat, i bought this:
i was contemplating many brands - LV, Miu Miu, Prada, Loewe, Kate Spade, but i eventually picked the princess of the brands - Miu Miu. i settled on black and this oversized gathered leather tote as it was a classic, made of calfskin which is stronger than lambskin (as cecilia advised), roomy, versatile (it comes with a shoulder strap) and i can possibly carry this for the rest of my life. it's my first expensive bag investment, and though i cannot say if it will be the last, i love this to death and i think i will be seen everyday with it, so you can laugh at me about it!
and also this - which cecilia also bought! that makes 2 of us who have this handphone charm in singapore. it only comes in 2 pieces of each colour of this design, so that makes the BFF in 2 of us.
because WW gave me this for our 1st year anniversary....
i love it so much! other than it is a fingerprint magnet, the functions are wonderful. it looks so good and i love the functions - as always, i love the calendar to record all my meetings & schedule and the TouchFlo 3D is so cool!
i definitely love this more than the much-hyped i-phone which was my initial choice. i love the Diamond! :)
