Virgin Trip To Bangkok

Hooray! My FIRST trip to Bangkok! Oh, did I mention also my first time arranging an overseas trip?! Booking airtickets, booking accommodation, etc. Oh my goodness, I'm so worried that I'll screw things up. -_- Knowing what a blur sotong I am...

Anyhow, have booked the airtickets today, and just finished booking the accommodation. Will be going with his friend who will meet his girl friend there. =) Company's good! At least we won't be so lost there. -_- I can so imagine both of us looking so freaking lost there and losing our tempers along the way. LOL. Because I'll be highly impatient, and he doesn't know what's going on.

So yeah, I so can't wait for the trip! Wait for loads of pics! Since I'm DEFINITELY gonna take photos of the super duper grand hotel that we're staying for the last 2 nights! And of course the hostel, looks cute lah! =D Oh oh, and not to mention all the shopping! LOL... ^_^

The Lazy One PMS-ing

I hate PMS-ing. Bloated, no appetite, cramps, lethargy. I can't believe I threw a good half packet of chicken rice away! And from my favourite stall nonetheless. Geez. Not to mention the ULTRA bad-temperedness. Poor him of course suffered the brunt of it. -_- Well, doesn't help that he's not sensitive enough to know the 'commandment': "Thou Shalt Not Provoke a PMS-ing Woman". Hmmphh.

Anyway, before I go on about what brought about this post, I've GOOD NEWS! (No, I'm NOT pregnant duh -_- Thank God!) Hubby won a 3D2N stay at a 5-star hotel in Bangkok! Woohoo! =D It's called Dusit Thani hotel and if you go surf its website, oh my god, the Club benefits (included in the package) is awesome. We're gonna live like freaking King and Queen! LOL...

Yeah yeah, I know I sound like I've never seen the world. =p But I've NEVER stayed at a 5-star hotel with such wonderful treatment before! Well, not that I can remember... And it's in Bangkok, so it's a wonderful excuse to go for a Bangkok trip! Haha... Yeap, yours truly has NEVER been to Bangkok. -_- Even Ivory has gone there at least 2 times! *SULKS*

Anyhow, we collected the voucher and at night when I MSN-ed daddy, here's the conversation (as far as I can remember) which I think is a riot, the way daddy speaks. LOL.

Me: Daddy! We won a 3D2N stay at Bangkok! So we going there next month!
Daddy: Make sure no gimmick.
Me: Aiyah, no gimmick one, it's a prize from some voting contest that he joined...
Daddy: Ok, we'll be back on Friday night. We discuss it then.

So duhhhhh right? Hahahaha... But that's my daddy for you! =p

Anyway, was having a fever and then the next day kena stupid 'auntie visit'. I SUPER DUPER hate it. And then on Sunday, I happily wanna watch "The Devil Wears Prada", and mummy had to nag and nag and complain and complain (the usual about the messy room, she was talking to my sis, but I know she also partly meant it for my ears too, just that she doesn't really tell me off these days) while walking to and fro infront of the TV! Like, HELLO, I'M WATCHING THE BLARDY TV! So fine, I tried to control my temper because I so want to finish watching the show. AND THEN SOMEONE HAD TO ANNOY ME BY ASKING ME TO HELP CLEAN UP MY ROOM AFTER THE SHOW! WHO ELSE?!

If there's one thing I hate in the world, it's being told to clean up my room. Or anything for the matter. Yeah, I'm a lazy bitch. But it's so messy I don't even know where to start! And when I start cleaning up, I don't like to do it halfway and I SO know I'll sweat buckets clearing my room. No joke lor. And that's why I DON'T WANT TO CLEAN UP MY ROOM TODAY.

So yeah, the volcano erupt and I just stormed off to my room and started cleaning up AKA throwing things away. Then HE got mad and stormed off and went home. AND I MISSED THE FREAKING SHOW! *SULKS*

And yeah, I'm still feeling really bitchy today. I'm gonna bite his head off if he dares annoy me again tonight.

I'M GOING TO HONG KONG!!!!!!!

This afternoon my colleague told me about this promotion by Jetstar. She got the information from her sister, and the both of them are just so into travelling! They always know where to look for good deals and all. =p I wish I was as resourceful as them!

Anyhow she was saying how the Hong Kong flights are so cheap now and she showed me the rate. I was quite excited at the prospect of going to Hong Kong, since I can go there and see his niece! Of course not to mention re-visiting Hong Kong. =) So I called hubby who didn't seem too interested, but I think enthusiasm is really catching, so he ended up giving in to my whims. =p

So I went ahead to book and managed to get us both return air tickets to Hong Kong for S$462! =D (S$119 to Hong Kong and S$15 back to Singapore per person before taxes and all!) Such a steal in my opinion! I'm quite particular about comfort, so even a trip to KL, I'll want one of the better coaches, so ended up the last time we went to KL, we spent at least S$200 on coach for both of us. =x So to me, paying S$500 for flights to Hong Kong is nothing. Haha... It may not be business class, but the journey isn't that long either, so it's ok!

Furthermore we can save on accommodation since we will be bunking in at his eldest sis's place. I did give some thought about overseas trip, since we're supposed to save up for renovation for our new flat (which we are still looking for) and other expenses. But well, I figured if I spend less on cab fares, on my extravagant spending, etc, I should be able to save at least a hundred or two each month from now until we leave for our holiday. =)

So now tickets are booked, I'm so looking forward to the Hong Kong trip! I haven't been overseas for SO LONG. And not once with him! (Hey, Malaysia not counted, and the furthest we went is to Kuala Lumpur. -_-) I've already forgotten what it is like to sit in an aeroplane! LOL... And it's one of the longest REAL holiday that we'll be taking together, so to me, this is really a big deal and I'm just SO SO excited! =) He did promise to bring me to Hong Kong in 2010, but knowing him, he'll procrastinate and not do any planning towards the said trip unless I take things into my own hands. -_- He'll consider this and that, complain how we cannot afford it, blah blah blah. But well, I think I deserve this trip! =p

Anyway it's still such a long way to go before we actually embark on our trip! We're leaving on 29 Dec 09, coming back on 9 Jan 10. =D Super shiok right? ^_^ Luckily his sister stays in Hong Kong and we can save on accommodation, otherwise this trip to Hong Kong may not be possible. Especially not with such a long stay! The hotel fees would have killed both of us! Haha... We'll probably have to eat maggi mee for the next few months to save enough money! And probably not be able to visit some of the attractions there too. -_-

Alrighty! Start saving! Stop eating at restaurants so frequently! Stop shopping! Stop taking cabs! Stop snacking! Haha... Must save as much money as I can to spend on stuff there! I'm lemming for cutesy stuff to bring back! I won't be surprised if I come back with a huge teddy bear or soft toy. LOL. =x Though he'll probably be a wet blanket about it. -_- Ah well... =p

Finally It's Over...

No need for any further contact with the person anymore. Finally a load, a burden off my back. Now to just push away all the memories, good and bad.

Just feeling such immense relief. =) Though feeling some sadness for the friends that I've lost too. =(

House-Hunting

Super vexed now. I hate growing up. I hate making adult decisions.

Because I quite like the 3-room flat that me and hubby saw, but it's S$238K valuation price, and the owner is hoping for S$20K COV. But hubby's point of view is that it's too expensive especially with regards to the COV. The valuation for 3-room flats around the same area is maximum S$220K. Hence the higher valuation of this flat is due to the renovation that was done 7 years ago. Which is why hubby refused to pay so much COV.

But I like it because it's renovated already, and can move in when all procedures have been settled, and don't need the hassle of anymore renovation. Furthermore it's just behind my family's condo's backgate. And within 2 min walk, there are bus stop with more buses, coffeeshops. Bukit Panjang Plaza is only 5 min walk away. Besides, he can park his bike and car if he gets one eventually at the condo and walk home.

But he prefers the 4-room flat which is less accessible and slightly further from my family's house. There are no coffeeshops within walking distance. Plaza is even further. I haven't seen the house for myself, but seems like renovation needs to be done. Which of course, is better, since we can renovate to suit our taste. But it seems like such a hassle. You'll need time to go and decide what kind of renovation, need to crack brains YET again.

On one hand I do understand where he's coming from. I know he doesn't want to be SO near to my family's place because mom will surely pop over too often. And furthermore he wouldn't want my parents to pay for the COV for us which they have offered to. I also understand he likes the 4-room one, because it's quieter there, the air is better there as there are more trees there. And we can do our own renovation and it's better value for money since it's almost half a house more than the 3-room flat.

On the other hand, I like the familiarity that the 3-room flat presents. That it's so near my house and I don't have to change my routes to work, etc. I can go down to dapao food home, I can walk to Plaza if I want, I can walk to 163 coffeeshop if I want. I can walk home to visit my sis. And if friends want to come visit, it's easier for them too because it's more convenient and easier to direct them as most of them will be taking the public transport.

I don't know lah. I think so much until I so want to cry because I don't know what to decide.

Sad... =(

Feeling really sad, because while me and hubby were off at his hometown, my 2 hammies apparently got into a fight... My Ben Dan went to bite a chunk off his Huai Dan's head... *cries* Everytime I see his bald patch I cry... =( Feel so upset and hurting, because it must have hurt alot and poor Huai Dan must have been tormented... I know my Ben Dan has been bullying his Huai Dan these few weeks, but I thought it was nothing, so didn't separate them... Sigh...

So angry with naughty Ben Dan... Shall rename him as Wang Ba Dan liao... Hubby so angry with my Ben Dan that he threaten to feed him to the stray cats downstairs... *cries* Now I just wanna go home and sayang poor Huai Dan and make him as comfortable as possible... =(

I don't dare to wash poor Huai Dan, because of his wound... So I ended up washing the cage while hubby washed him... Saw spots of blood and I just cried lah... Cried myself to sleep also... Poor lil fella... =( Then hubby went to apply yellow lotion on his wound... -_- And now my Ben Dan is stuck in the Tupperware, because didn't have time to buy new cage for him...

I WANNA CRY AGAIN LAH!!!!! *BAWLS*

I HATE YOU.

I actually wrote a long entry, but I decided I'll just post it in my personal blog instead.

But I still want to rant here. And yell to the whole world that "I FUCKING HATE YOU V".

You know who you are. And I shan't comment further here.

I can only say just hearing your voice makes me wanna hurl.

And yeah, you're not the only one facing 'FAMILY ISSUES'. I am also facing FUCKING family issues. So what's the big fuck about yours?!

Yuppers. I'm FUCKING PISSED. And whoever dares tell me not to use such language, you can FUCK OFF already, because this is my FUCKING blog, and I can FUCKING write what I want.
