Lalalalala...

So far work's fine; abit of information overload though! Trying to learn and remember as much as I can. Don't know if it's better that I've worked in education industry before so it's easier to pick up stuff or is it better that I haven't worked in education industry before so it'll be easier to remember things and not get confused by previous company's terms, lingo, etc. LOL. Now have to relearn the terms, lingo used. -_- But other than that, I'm quite happy here, but missing my ex-colleagues. =|

 

Nothing else much to talk about. Haha. He's busy with his job and working so much harder there. I told him it's not that it's working so much harder. It's just that he has been slacking too much on his job for the past few years. Haha. Oh well, hopefully his hard work will pay off and he can get a substantial pay raise after confirmation! Anyway, so after work, he'll be too tired, and I'll be too buzzed so we'll just go have dinner together and go home rot and sleep early. For the FIRST TIME since like forever, I slept at 11.30pm last night! -_- Usually I don't sleep before 1am. LOL. But yesterday had such a bad migraine, so head off to bed earlier.

 

Friday meeting his sis and family for dinner, celebrating his niece's birthday! Yipee! =D Miss that little Juicy! =p Haha... She's just adorable. =) Must remind hubby to bring his camera and take loads of photos! Anyway, weekend, don't know do what. Probably go watch movie. I have so many movies I want to watch!

 

Haeundae: The Deadly Tsunami

500 Days of Summer

Poker King

Love Happens

My Sister's Keeper

My Girlfriend is an Agent

 

Sigh, so many movies, but such an expensive 'hobby'! =(

 

Now that most of the current goals are settled, going to aim for the iPhone! =p Can't wait for those end-of-the-year sales and promotions! And then it's the Hong Kong trip! YES!!!!!!

Interesting Message...

Heh, not the first time my picture has conned other guys... =x Got this in my Facebook Inbox:

Hi

I am pretty new in this medium and true i was introduced here by a colleague of mine who attested to the fact that

responsible people abound here. Well he found his soul mate here too!

I am new also at this method of meeting a soul mate but I am very determined to give it my best short. I came across your photo and I liked the simplicity of your looks,quite fascinating and I would like to get to know more about you if you are interested.

I am a medical doctor, pediatricians to be precise, hobbies......hmmm....laughing, i like to think I have a great sense of humour and I like relaxing with that special person...walking hand in hand along the seaside and I also love to dance and swim too. If you are interested do reach me back ok?

lot of thots

Paul.

Hmmm, sorry, but you're too late... =p Righy hubby? ^_^

Anyway, nothing much this weekend. Still sick and coughing. Abit breathless at times, coughing like mad, but better compared to Friday. That day was absolutely horrible. -_-

Can't wait to go back to work honestly! LOL! =x

New Job, New Chapter in Life...

Well, tomorrow (or rather later, LOL), I'm starting my new job. =)

So far so good; the salary is higher (S$400 more than my last pay), the benefits better (S$300 holiday claims amongst others - will know more tomorrow), and my position higher (Assistant Manager). Well, I hope I can meet up to the expectation! I will do my best, don't worry! No more slacking. Time to really be more mature and excel in what I can do. =) Well, with such good benefits, how can I not prove my worth right? =p

Anyway, so my job's settled, my house more or less settled (though can only move in late next year, but who cares?), hubby found a better paying job and it's something he has a passion for, so basically, Sophia's a happy girl! ^_^ Not only that, I'm truly blessed with a doting daddy. =) He's super sweet lah. I smsed him that I've got a job, my position and pay and this is what he replied: "Very good. Fantastic. Please keep it nicely. Get some good cloth. Let me know if you need help." Haha... So cute right? =p And he even gave me S$400 to buy some new formal wear! I was so pai seh to accept from him lor. But he keep insisting, so I don't have much choice. So nice right? I love my daddy alot, even though I sometimes throw temper at him. -_-

Only thing that saddens me is not being able to celebrate my birthday with Bui. =( I miss her so much! And Lyna! Sigh... It just won't be the same without them really. =( I heart you two most! Of course and the 2 Shars... LOL... But I'm closer to Bui and Lyna... Sigh... Really miss miss heart heart them!

Oh, and then I told them both the news, and hubby complained that I shouldn't have done that. Because he says it seems like I'm bragging and making them feel envious. =( But it's not like that... I don't know... On one hand, quite true, it may seem like I'm bragging and showing off and all... But I honestly don't mean it that way! I hope they know that... Sigh... Me and my big mouth sometime... -_- I only meant to update that I've found a job, that I'm doing well now... =(

Anyway, gotta head off to bed soon! Can't be late tomorrow! I so can't wait to start work... 2 weeks of rotting at home is enough to drive me crazy! The interviewers (or rather my new bosses) were like asking how come I don't want to take a longer break, go for holiday or something after working for so long. -_- Haha... Sure, a break is fine, but 2 weeks of doing nothing? And it's not as if other people are free to meet up with me, go out, etc... And I NEED to do something or my brain will rust. LOL. I was planning to take some short courses if I am still unable to find a job. =p

Ok, I'll blog more tomorrow since hubby is working late shift so poor me gotta learn to be independent and go home by myself. =p

Update Again!

Hmmm... Where should I start?

Ok, first off, found a job! =) Am so relieved... Hehe... Looking forward to working again! No, seriously. Haha... I was bored out of my wits! Will talk more about this tomorrow or something.

Secondly, finally can complete the HDB forms for our flat! =D

Thirdly, I'm missing my girls from my ex-company. You know who you are eh. Sigh. =( I missed those days of disturbing them, giggling and gossiping, going out for meals. I'm gonna arrange an outing soon, so YOU better turn up!

Lastly, am super sick. -_- Haven't been this sick for a long time! Having a super runny nose (tempted to just shove some tissues up my nose and leave it there honestly!) and an extremely bad cough (been hacking away like crazy that I think I'm going to cough my lungs out). It's so awful I think I'll sleep early for once. Hopefully the cough won't keep me awake. -_- Been coughing until I teared. Sigh.

Anyway, oh my god, where has time flown? Soon it'll be end of the month and 2 months later, HELLO to Hong Kong! =D I so can't wait! It seems like just yesterday that I booked the air tickets. LOL. Oh no, no time to lose weight until it's time to go HK. Haha.

Ok, should be heading to bed soon. I can feel the room spinning and a major headache is drumming itself into my head. -_-

Mixed Emotions...

Worried, because haven't found a job yet... -_- Maybe I should lower my expectations? Haha... =p

Sad, because am missing Bui and Lyna! =( Honestly, it's just not the same without you... Especially Lyna... I think even hubby thinks I love you more than him... Haha!

Happy, because I'm out of the hell-hole... =) Really, I don't regret my decision to leave. And my temper is so much better now. Even hubby notices I'm not that bad-tempered as compared to a few months back. Not to mention my maniac moments (yeah, the crying, the quarrels with him over nothing, the suicidal thought) have disappeared. LOL.

Frustrated, because I don't want to do customary wedding and lunch/dinner but I can't say no to our parents... Can I? =p Just thinking of needing to prepare all those things for the customary is stressing me out! -_- Haha, maybe I'm just terrified also of wearing a wedding dress. *jiggles all her fats*

Excited, because December is drawing nearer and it'll be time for my 'honeymoon' with hubby! Whoopee! ^_^ Can go see his da jie's lil girl! I adore her to bits! =D And I'm soooo gonna video our second overseas trip! Haven't been to Hong Kong for so long... Lots of memories...

Relieved, because we've found our lovenest, just next to his friend's house! LOL! =x Thanks ZX and CX! Though can only move in mid next year I suppose. Hubby's so excited that he's already designing our house. Haha. I guess I'm not as excited because it's still so far away and I don't really see the point of looking at what to buy for the house. New products will surface and I'll most probably want the latest stuff! LOL! =x I mean, see now, what's the point? Not as if I can buy now, stock at my place or his first. -_-

Glad, because hubby got a new job and it's something that he enjoys! Nothing beats getting a job that you've passion for. =) Congrats my dear hubby!

Thankful, because of hubby's support in my decision to quit before securing another job. =) Especially when I don't think I was that supportive when the same thing happened the other way round. =p

Upset, because one of my poor hammie got injured by the ferocious mother hamster. She's a major nutcase! -_- This is the second time she bullied the male hamsters and wounded them! Sheesh!

Relaxed, because went back to his hometown and had so much fun playing with little Juicy! =p She's absolutely adorable. But temperamental! And extremely smart and active. I've got scraped knees from crawling after her for so long. -_- Not to mention so tiring trying to get her to stop crying!

So many emotions, just one me. It's a wonder I can keep myself together. LOL. =p Tomorrow (or rather, later) going for an interview in the morning and then it's off for a date with hubby! He's off work tomorrow... Hehehe... =)

What's in your name?

Took this test today for myself and hubby. Quite interesting and accurate from what I'm skimmed so far... =D

"What's the hidden meaning of your name?"

Mine:

You Are Seductive and Ruthless

You are the total package - suave, sexy, smart, and strong. You have the whole world under your spell, and you can influence almost everyone you know. You don't always resist your urges to crush the weak. Just remember, they don't have as much going for them as you do.

You are well rounded, with a complete perspective on life. You are solid and dependable. You are loyal, and people can count on you. At times, you can be a bit too serious. You tend to put too much pressure on yourself.

You are influential and persuasive. You tend to have a lot of power over people. Generally, you use your powers for good. You excel at solving other people's problems. Occasionally, you do get a little selfish and persuade people to do things that are only in your interest.

You are truly an original person. You have amazing ideas, and the power to carry them out. Success comes rather easily for you... especially in business and academia. Some people find you to be selfish and a bit overbearing. You're a strong person.

You tend to be pretty tightly wound. It's easy to get you excited... which can be a good or bad thing. You have a lot of enthusiasm, but it fades rather quickly. You don't stick with any one thing for very long. You have the drive to accomplish a lot in a short amount of time. Your biggest problem is making sure you finish the projects you start.

You are usually the best at everything ... you strive for perfection. You are confident, authoritative, and aggressive. You have the classic "Type A" personality.

You are friendly, charming, and warm. You get along with almost everyone. You work hard not to rock the boat. Your easy going attitude brings people together. At times, you can be a little flaky and irresponsible. But for the important things, you pull it together.

You are very intuitive and wise. You understand the world better than most people. You also have a very active imagination. You often get carried away with your thoughts. You are prone to a little paranoia and jealousy. You sometimes go overboard in interpreting signals.

You are deeply philosophical and thoughtful. You tend to analyze every aspect of your life. You are intuitive, brilliant, and quite introverted. You value your time alone. Often times, you are grumpy with other people. You don't appreciate them trying to interfere in your affairs.

You are incredibly sexy and sensual. You have a naughty vibe that no one can ignore. You have an unquenchable desire. And you are unrestrained in your passions. You have a tendency to be unfaithful. Whether you fight it or give in to it is up to you.

You are a seeker. You often find yourself restless - and you have a lot of questions about life. You tend to travel often, to fairly random locations. You're most comfortable when you're far away from home. You are quite passionate and easily tempted. Your impulses sometimes get you into trouble.

Hubby's:

You Are Powerful and Determined

You are confident, self assured, and capable. You are not easily intimidated. You master any and all skills easily. You don't have to work hard for what you want. You make your life out to be exactly how you want it. And you'll knock down anyone who gets in your way!

You are usually the best at everything ... you strive for perfection. You are confident, authoritative, and aggressive. You have the classic "Type A" personality.

You are very open. You communicate well, and you connect with other people easily. You are a naturally creative person. Ideas just flow from your mind. A true chameleon, you are many things at different points in your life. You are very adaptable.

You are a very lucky person. Things just always seem to go your way. And because you're so lucky, you don't really have a lot of worries. You just hope for the best in life. You're sometimes a little guilty of being greedy. Spread your luck around a little to people who need it.

You are very intuitive and wise. You understand the world better than most people. You also have a very active imagination. You often get carried away with your thoughts. You are prone to a little paranoia and jealousy. You sometimes go overboard in interpreting signals.

Randomness

Had my exit interview from my current company. My last day will be officially on 30 September 09. Haven't secured a new job yet... So you can only imagine how BADLY I want to leave here.

It's time to move on. I'll miss my beloved colleagues like Bui and Lyna and Sharon. But I won't miss anything else here.

Anyway, I'm still actively looking for a job. But Lyna is right, nowadays the jobs available are for skilled workers. Even hubby who half-heartedly looked for job, has found a new job! I'm thrilled for him. =) It pays like S$400 more, and it's a job he likes, so it's a win-win situation! He sounds really enthusiastic about what this new job can offer, so I'm really happy for him. =) Hope this time the new boss will be better.

Now that hubby's career is settled so far, outstanding issues will be a new job for me, buying a house of our own, and preparing for my year-end trip. =) Once all these done, I'm a happy girl! =p My goals are simple. Heh.

Oh yes, OTT, yesterday went KTV with Lyna and Sharon. I tell you, it was a riot! =D We had SOOOO much laughter there. Made a fool of ourselves and shocking the poor waiter, screached to Aerosmith's "I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing" (which I made a voice recording and I laughed every single time when I replayed it at least 10 times, LOL!), danced to "My Humps" by Black Eyed Peas (ok, that's me, showing Lyna my wonderfully big butt) and my poor cheese fries got squashed by Lyna's butt. Haven't had such a good laugh for the longest time! Such that I was missing Lyna already when we went home. =( Can we go again soon??!!

Oh, and another random talk: I want LG Cookie! I was so tempted to buy the LG Cookie at Singtel when I visited ION Orchard! It was S$300 without contract. I think it's probably because they are discontinuing this model. =( I like it because it's fully touch-screen and it uses a stylus, which means I can poke poke the phone with my nails! I can't use Arena, IPhone, because it's not THAT touch-sensitive and I have super fat and clumsy fingers. -_- And my phone is quite cranky these days. It shuts off by itself, smses doesn't come through (need to switch off and switch on), it's laggy as hell, and worst is hubby's number doesn't reflect his name nor picture nor his ringtone! =( So really wanted a new phone. But then thinking again, quite a waste of money since it's still working, and not as if I REALLY need a new phone now. Haiz. Quite torn between buying and not buying. Oh well, just wait for the new Sony Ericsson phone end of the month. Or for better deals.
