Spent another day lazing at home. Thought of going to town area this afternoon. But when I came back home from gym, found deardear sleeping on the sofa. We decided later that we will spend time at home relaxing. We watched TV and went to AMK central to makan. We also redeemed a cake from Bengawan Solo. Deardear insisted on a Marble Cake which turned out looking disgusting.

We finally tried the famous Lor Mee and Laska at the food center opposite out block. It is nice but not really worth the queuing.

Deardear gained a lot of weight from eating today:)

We are broke le. Lucky there is only one more day till PAY day. Haha...and we are receiving SP bill rebate this month so GOOD NEWS.

There was this attachment guy who came attach to me the day before. He was late when he reported for work and subsequently I found him sleeping at the 1st hour of sleep. As such, I decided that I must teach him some discipline and right working attitude. I then bring him around and we worked really hard. I gave him little rest, just enough for him to have his meals and toilet break. At the end of the day, I told him that he must report early for work the next day, which he did. He came to work early yesterday and just when I thought he had improved, he slept again during work. This made me angry. I did the same thing and it was a day of hard work.

When I came back this morning after work, I was so tired that I slept almost until 7pm. I usually will wake up at 4pm and go to the gym. So I met up with deardear at 7.15pm and we went for dinner at AMK central. After our dinner, she went back home and I went to the gym.

Now we are surfing net and enjoying our aircon in our bedroom. How nice to have a home of your own.

National Day 09

I went to National Day celebration (Preview) at Marina Bay yesterday with deardear. She managed to get 2 tickets from her company. The show was nice but I was just to tired to enjoy it as I had not enough sleep after my night shift. I had participated in the 2008 National Day celebrate show and being able to be part of it as an audience was a totally different experience. Saw alot of my colleagues too at the show. I think they will be very evny of me. Hahaha.....

Today, deardear's godsis came to our house with her baby. We had lunch at our house and dinner at AMK centre. Went to AMK Centre to walk walk in the the evening and separated to return home only at about 9.30pm. Actually, I like friends coming to my house just to chill and relax. I thnk I'll get a bed or a sofa bed so that my friends can even stay overnight....hahaha....so happy having your own house.

Just when you thought that person is bad, some incident change your perspective towards that person. I don't know whether I am wrong. Maybe we should all give other people a chance or time to get to know the person better before we come to any conclusions.

Let not think too much cause there is a pot luck party waiting for me. I am bringing a duck:) so excited.

Relax Day

Today is a relax day. Woke up in the morning at about 10am. Had breakfast and read the newspaper. I went back to sleep later until about 3pm. Went to the gym after that and returned home to eat dinner with deardear. Now watching TV and surf the net:)

Ice Age 3

I woke up this morning with dear dear and went to work with her because I wanted to borrow her thermometer, which is at her office. It was for my training later in the afternoon. After a day of training, I met up with Royston and Boon Kuay at Plaza Singapura for a moive Ice Age 3 at 9:15pm.

The movie is funny. I reached home at about 12 midnight and Ta Bao satay for dear dear. She finished all the satay and left nothing for me:) Nevermind, I can tahan.

Haha.....now watching movie with dear dear and the puee bears:)

Wedding Dinner

I had brought dear dear along to one of my friend's wedding dinner. The wedding dinner was held at the Prima Restaurant. In case you may not know, it is the revolving restuarant located near to Habourfront MRT.

This is the first time we had experienced having dinner at a restuarant that actually rotates while you eat. Although it was a new experience but we suffered headache later due to the rotation.

Here are some photos.



Dear dear was happy as she knows that she could have more food as 2 seats were empty at our table.




Me and Royston. Royston is my friend. He is single and 25 years old. Anyone interested?




A group photo was taken with my friend, Peggy (The bride) and her husband. The others were in the same table as us. I knew most of them except for the couple standing 2nd and 3rd from the left. They were Peggy's friends. They were very friendly and we became friends later and most of us went to Dragonfly to Chiong later:)




Hahaha...bad news for those who are interested in my friend, Royston. Seems like he is getting along well with another friend, Yi Xiu. They were dancing closely in the club and Royston even saved her later from a lorry that was driving towards us from behind. Royston grabbed her hand and pulled her to the side. Yi Xiu left with Royston later in a cab. Don't know where are they going at 1am.......it is up to our imagination liao:)

Samsung 32 inch LCD Television

We had bought a Samsung 32 inch LCD television on the last day of the IT fair held 2 weeks ago:)

We did not plan to go initially but went on the last day as one of my friend, Johnathan was there as he wanted to get a LCD television.

We reached Expo and met up with Johnathan at about 8.30pm. Johnathan told me that he was eyeing on a Samsung 32 inch LCD TV, which was selling at S$1049 and come with a home theatre system and S$150 Robinson's voucher.

While Johnathan was waiting at the Samsung booth, dear dear and I decided to cruise around the Expo fair to look at other TV brand.

We went around and was looking at brands like Sharp and LG. As the prices were much more lower than Samsung. At about 9pm, Johnathan called me and told me that he had decided to buy the Samsung TV and he was queueing.

Dear dear and I continued looking around for the best buy. At about 9.45pm, the last 15 mins before the fair comes to an end, we coincidently came to the Samsung booth. We were about to leave with disappointment as the price of Sharp and LG TV did not drop and had stopped by the Samsung booth to take a look. Suddenly miracle happened!!! The price of the Samsung 32 inch LCD TV dropped to S$999. It was exactly the same set bought by Johnathan.

What happened later was funny. I know dear dear will want to defend herself on it but what I am saying are true. Dear dear turned around and asked whether we want the TV and I replied YES. Guess what, as there were 10 sets left, dear dear squeezed and dashed through the crowds to get a number at the counter. The staff noticed her and even announced with a microphone to his colleague " This lady, this lady!!!" He was telling his colleague to give a queue number to dear dear. We got the queue number 6. We went to Johnathan just to confirm whether it was the same set. When dear dear was walking back to the counter to make the payment, she discovered that I was not beisde her. Actually I was still beside Johnathan, which was not far away from her. However, we observed that dear dear was totally GONE!!! Not only did she not notice me but she was standing aimlessly and looking blur at the middle of the walkway. Her hand was at her mouth and she was turning her body but she looks totally GONE!!! Hahaha...so funny.

I had told her what I had observed but she kept coming up with excuses and was trying to defend herself. Luckily I had a witness, who is Johnathan.

So we got the TV. We were so hungry later and decided to eat something at a restaurant. Here are some photos.

My house

I went to inspect my house today and took some photographs:)



My dining area.



Master bedroom toilet.

Interested???

My friend, Royston. The one in black colour t-shirt and white bermudas. He is still single. Anyone interested???

Dragonboat competition

Yesterday night, I switched off my handphone after received a few nusiance calls. I thought I will have some peace after switching my phone but guess what. Dear dear picked up a phone call in the middle of the night and it was one my colleague who was trying to call me. He is also dear dear's friend. He told me that there is a dragon boat competition this morning and they are shortage of man. As such, he hope that I can row for them. I wanted to reject him as I am very tired but my heart soften upon his repeated request. I agreed and woke up very early this morning and took a cab to UOB building for the competition held at Singapore River.




This photograph was taken after the competition. We were disqualified after rowing off course. The competition course was short, about 300 meters but all of us were very tired as we did not do any training before that.




Small fatfat claimed that he was there to support me. But I know that his true motive was to see all the sport babes there. I am going to tell bunny.




Dear dear was there too. Too bad I did not win anything for her. But at least I got myself a free t-shirt which says Toa Payoh East CSC. Hahaha....I am such a typical Singaporean. Go Singapore!!!

Renovation

The renovation for our new house have started. We took a few photographs during our visits to our new house to inspect the progress. The contractor, Ah Keng and his crews are fast.

The wall between the living room and the kitchen was hacked off and we are planning to build a new wall further inside the kitchen.

On 21/11/2008, when I went to inspect our house in the afternoon, Ah Keng crew was laying the new wall. The space betweent he living room and the kitchen will be our dining area.

On 22/11/2008, the wall had been completed and the tiles for the wall had been laid. Good job Ah Keng and his crews:) Tks Ah Puee electricial.

Dear dear came to my house.


We took some photographs:)



She got excited about taking photographs:)

She gained some weight after having a mango:)

Money No Enough

Haiz........money no enough.

Alicia and I met our Interior Designer, Alton today at our new house. He brought along a electrician today for the electric wiring in our house. Small fat fat was also around to mess up everything!!!!

The electrician, Ah Hee went around the house and marked out all the electric point. At the end of the day, he quoted us S$ 1510 for the house electric wiring. We managed to bargain and cut the quotation to S$1438. All thanks to Alicia and small fatfat. (Cos small fatfat threaten to punch his puee face if he does not comply)

At the end of the day, we did a little calculation and discovered that our money is no enough......haiz......now I am stressed...more stress when dear dear is beside me and correcting my English........(Small fatfat, stop sitting there and staring at the laptop)

I hope that everything will go smoothly for us.

I think I better pray now:) Hahaha...anyway, still need to be positive and optimistic.

Lastly, small fatfat, stop staring at the laptop!!!!

Sacrifice

What I am doing now is all for my family.

Will people be angry with me if I don't want to go out but choose to stay at home, just because I want to avoid spending money?

Hope my sacrifice will be worth it:)

I am back!!!

Finally, I am logging on to my blog and writing a new post. It has been a long time since I wrote something.

Let me fill up the blanks for the period when I am absent.

First,

I am married!!! Alicia and I got married on the 16th August 2008. Both our families and friends had witnessed the ROM ceremony at Stardus Clubhouse along Rivervalley Rd. It was my greatest moment and I am glad that I have myself a good wife.

Second,

We had got our new house!!! Alicia and I went for our 2nd appointment at HDB on 29th October 2008 and collected our house key. It is a resale flat in Ang Mo Kio!!! I am happy that we find ourselve a nice place to move in and having our own family lives:)


Third,

We are going for renovation!!! We had engaged Interior Designer, Alton from IdealHouse and we will be starting the renovation on coming Monday!!! The renovation of the our house will be completed around end of December this year.



I am glad I have accomplished so much this year. Although there are difficult times but Alicia and I managed to pull through. Hopefully our good luck will carry on and future will be bright for us and our families:)

Lately, I had not been going out with my friends....cos I am broke right now. To a certain extend that I don't dare to asked my friends out or even to join their meetings. I think this is a phrase where everyone needs to go through and I am no exception.

Lets hope that I will strike TOTO!!!

Smooth

Firstly, I would like to apologise to my BIGGEST BLOG FAN Alex Lee Eng Meng for not inviting him to my ROM. The reason being is that it is only meant for relatives and close friends. Anyway, I will invite him on my customary marriage dinner.

Although there are still 5 months to the end of the year but I would say that this is quite a smooth year. Although there were some humps during the way but everything turned out alright.

So, I will be expecting to get married, get my class 3 and get my new house. Hopefully everything goes smoothly and on track.

Best wishes to everyone and hopefully everyone is having a smooth year too.

Ice Cream

Last Friday night, I was having dinner with dear dear at Din Tai Feng restaurant. We walked over to Suntec later throught City Link. On the way, we spotted an Ice Cream Shop, which was newly opened. We did a bet and dear dear lost, so she agreed to treat me to the ice cream.

So, rightfully, I should be the one that is enjoying the ice cream, while dear dear look in envy......but....things usually don't go that way....please look at the photos below and you will

know....

This is the Ice Cream shop that I was talking about.

This is the strawberry ice-cream that we got and look who is holding it.....

Haiz.......and what happen later.......FINISH!!!

Hahaha.....dear dear looked so happy and satisfy. The ice cream is nice and the waffle is delicious too. So, if you drop by the shop next time, may want to give it a try.

Being Together

When 2 person decided to be together, they must be prepared for the changes and ready to make sacrifices. It is because it is not about "YOU" yourself anymore. It involved the both of you.

Nothing is perfect in this world. No human are made perfect to suit another person. So conflict and argument came along due to misunderstanding and poor communication.

But do not lose fate in the relationship. Instead, both must make an effort to compromise and solve the problem. And when you do something or make any decision, you must think and consider of your partner.

I am glad that even there are hiccups during our relationship, we managed to pull through.

Let us learn from our mistakes and let this relationship be forever.

Getting Sick

I really hate being sick. These are the disadvantages of it;

1) You'll feel very bad and weak, with headache and body ache.
2) You'll not be able to go out, as you're too weak. Even if you not too weak, you'll have no mood.
3) You'll spend alot of money seeing doctor and for the medicine.
4) You cannot go to the gym and will lost alot of muscle mass.
5) No one will want to get near you as they might be infected.
6) You'll sleep and sleep and sleep.....and all the time are considered wasted.

So, basically there are nothing you can do but to rest and get well, when you are sick.

So, let us eat well, rest well and train well. Maintain a healthy lifestyle, so that we can live longer and enjoy the time with our love one.
