Another big dig into my purse..


Huiteng gave me a treat today with her first pay!! =D =D =D Happy Happy Happy... Met her at orchard which as usual I was late =D and went skin care searching again! =D And I tried on the Chanel's exceptional mascara! Like it a lot but I resist the temptation to buy because I think it's a little 浪费钱 right now to put on a Chanel mascara for school... (shall settle on maybeline for the time being until I get a job...) Haha, got another loot from Clarins (again I know, but I like that brand) then went to Baker's In to eat!! Happy happy happy. Got 2 treats this week....

Sorry arh darling, the camera-too-high up picture is the best one I have... the rest of pictures not nice. Anyway, camera high good leh. At least we don't end up with fat faces =D

Anyway, I went to the skin doctor again on friday because of my 3 months old bite. Irritating... spent so much money on that bite just because the insects at that place I ran in don't like me... That bite, after being black and okay for 3 months, turned red on friday when I woke up and my mum was like saying have to go to the doctor to get it check. Went to Dr Chua this time, who told me that his patients are always only going to see him as the last resort, which was pretty funny... Anyway, he said that it's most likely an infection at the hair follicles then I think he said it kinda spread to the demis... So, he actually did 2 small incisions to remove the blood (I actually saw the blood and it's closed to black in colour... ) and after removing, he said that was a lump inside! So he pressed on the skin around my leg DAMN HARD to remove it... so now u can see it's damn ugly now...




I hope that's the end of it. Have to get anesthesia around that bite cause of that 2 incisions so I know it's going to be expensive but I think Dr Chua reduced the price for me because I have been seeing him for 3 years for my acne... But I think he damn ke lian lah cos I kept niaming the whole time I don't want to have scars when he's doing the incisions... lol it's okay lah. He was my childhood doctor...

Btw, I finally decided to get the Michael Phelps' Sports Illustrated poster but I think only available in US! Not sure about it yet cos haven't got round to browsing the website seriously... but I hope not!!


Hmm, thinking of getting a pair of sunglasses... personally I like white frames one because I think it's damn chic lah. But I dun have a high nose bridge which is a problem for getting such sunglasses and also I dunno how to choose! Scared I will end up like a bumble bee or housefly with HUGE EYES... Ok, after today I have to get to work SERIOUSLY. So shall end here...

Cheerios.

Turning in their graves?

This is going to be a damn random post...

I have been trying to follow the news lately, following what's happening to Lehman Brothers and AIG. Trying to see how it would apply to FM... Well, it's one of those times whereby I actually would read the finance news. =D And it's one of the times I am glad that I am in biz fac and finance because I can actually understand some of the finance lingo =D

Anyway, I had a thought. Do you think the Lehman Brothers (the actual founders) know what happened to their company? If they do, I think they must be pissed! The company stood for 150 years before it went bankrupt! I think if I am the CEO heading the company, I would not want to meet them when I die...

That is why I think the brothers may be turning in their graves right now...

I said before that I think this post is going to be extremely random....

Cheerios.

Fun

I have real fun today after so many days! Went to cam-whore around Arts fac with Irene whereby we were shooting absolutely stupid poses and stuff... I think some of the arts students were looking at us loh. Well, I am already halfway into the sem so I think it's time to take pictures around the school for memories!

Initial normal picture... Then it got wilder...




Then I met up with my beloved hei jie/ aiwei/ the always m-i-a sia girl. Well, finally got the dvds that she lent to me MONTHS AGO return to her! **Tang Xin Feng Bao is nice!!** Talk a lot while she's doing her manicure and pedicure (lucky I never subcumb into doing it loh, cos now I am so damn broke)... and we talk, we talk, we talk =D Always felt that I somehow know her for a long time whenever we talked even though we seriously know each other maybe for only a few mths?? =D An unexplanable connection. Maybe that's how things work between people sometimes... We talked about her work, my school, about hair gel (!!!) and drop in a few lines about hair gel and Irene dong gua's connection.... haha! (Irene is going to kill me the moment she sees this...) Then we cam-whore again, and she treated me to Fish and Co! Haven't eaten Fish and Co for a long time leh... but I really wish I have an entirely empty stomach cos somehow I feel that I let her off too easily... Haha!

And her bf thought that I was 16!!! I called him hei ge when my hei jie was talking to him on the phone... haha hei ge sounds like a underworld tribe chief or something.... haha! Hei jie's going to kill me when she sees this!

On phone with her bf...



The darker arm belongs to hei jie while the fairer arm belongs to bai mei... that's how out nicks came about =D


In the background it is the sharkie freeze that I sahred with da jia as yuan yang!! =D


Da jie promised me to try to meet up next mth for my birthday! Not sure whether I can make it anot too cause next mth is like the killer mth (after mid term) and I have a FM mid term on my birthday which is like AGAIN. Out of the 4 birthdays I have spent in uni, I had 3 of them having mid terms and 1 of them free, which is the one that matters the most, my 21st. But still, it's like AAAARRRGGGHHHH... finance module somemore. Anyway, will try my best to make it work with hei jie next month =D

And hei jie said that I am weird because I like one South African artist, got one greek mp3 song and like to watch figure skating =(

And now I really OWE A LOT OF PEOPLE OUTINGS....

1. My darling Huiteng shopping/ dinner which she wants to celebrate with me on her 1st paycheck (which is going to be cleared this sat. Phew! But I bet this is not the end...which I am happy as well =D)

2. Meet up with jul/ derrick/ tf (which I keep postponing...sorry!)

3. Meet up with jul/ zoe (argh! Schedule conflict sia)

4. With Linda, lotsa and lotsa lunch dates.... haha! I promised her that during the last week of my internship...

5. With Nicole, dinner

6. With Cher, which I cleared last week. (Phew!)

7. With XY (which I owe since May)

8. With my hei jie next mth (birthday birthday celebrations!)

9. With jul, all the coming up movies date which I dun want to miss!

I AM NEEDING HELP!!! No idea I was this popular until like this period of time whereby everyone is asking to meet me... =D But this is like NOT MY BEST TIME... I am behind my work right now! So bear with me a little ok guys... I know u guys love me so much to want to meet me (hahahahaha) but I have to try to work something out...

Anyway, Da jie 黑姐 and dong gua 冬瓜, I will upload the photos soon k! Will send all the pictures taken in the best format I can think of to hei jie's msn email and dong gua's yahoo email.... give me some time!

And hei jie, I want those photos from ur cam too!

Updates

I guess I got a lot to update these days... I have simply no time to blog!

I was trying to catch up with the US politics these days (and failed miserably because I was so lagging behind so I just read here and there) and something interesting caught my eye. I was watching a documentary when they actually compared the choices of vice president for Obama and McCain... same old story) when I saw some professor said about Palin's views on abortion. She opposes abortion, even in cases of rape... I went like HUH?? I understand being pro-life and everything, but this is like a little extreme to me lah! Can u imagine that poor woman carrying a child in her womb that she absolutely never want to see again??? Even giving that child up after birth for adoption is painful lo! It's like she doesn't want to remember that truma anymore but there is a protuding stomach bearing witness to it! Almakz... I don't even know what to say sia. And can u imagine that poor child?? He/She is better off not knowing how he/ she is being conceived... I thought that Palin as a woman, should have understand a woman's feelings about that...

Sighz. On another subject, I don't understand how come I have so much work! It's like I have been busy since the end of the olympics... which is like worse than any other sems. Haven't really go around applying to jobs, which kinda freaks me out because I don't want to be out of job for many freaking months. But on the other hand, I also don't really know what I want as well... Sighz, been pushing meetings with friends here and there which makes me feel extremely guilty.. SORRY GUYS! Will try to meet up ASAP ok!

Anyway, I was just browsing on the youtube, and just suddenly I went to watch the video of the only greek mp3 song that I have in my entire life... lol... It's called Eisai (or Ise for some other spelling), which means "You Are" in greek. Sung by Anna Vissi, who is like the Greek Madonna in Greece and Cyprus. Heard it during the Athens Olympics at the closing ceremony 4 years ago, this song got everyone dancing and it's actually a nice song!

Here's a video of her during that closing ceremony... And the lyrics...




The full song video...
And the lyrics...

Eisai sto aima,stis flebes
sta kyttara moy
eisai ston aera poy anapnew sti monajia moy



eisai i mera moy
eisai i nyxta moy
eisai to liwma moy
kai ta jenixtia moy
eisai o paradeisos
stis paraisthiseis moy
eisai to karma moy
ki oles oi aisthiseis moy



eisai sto aima,stis flebes...



esy ti zwi moy orizeis
esy to myalo moy trelaineis
esy se ola yparxeis
esy ki as min eisai edo



And there's an english version too... but I think the greek version is better cause somehow this video is a little to beefcake-y for me..



Ok, if u guys want to know what's going on my life, it's been same old same old. Nothing has changed. I have been slogging in school, watching tv shows and such. Planning to watch 溏心風暴2 after my last ever school exam ended with my mum... Anyway, I heard another shocking news. I just found out that one of my old friend whom I knew since k2 (we sort of drifted apart, which is a super long story) and who jul never really liked had gotten married last year and has a baby 5 mths old!

Wah!

And I am still in school!

I guess this shows that we REALLY drifted apart...

Ok, this post is getting kinda random...

Cheerios.

Withdrawal...

It's been 2 weeks, and I am still having withdrawal sympthoms, though albeit not as strong. Sighz... it is going to take me a long while before I can totally shake that feeling off...

Anyway, I always wanted to post about extraordinary athletes. Nope, I am not talking about my mightly Michael Phelps or that Bolt guy, but about Oksana Chusovitina and Natalie du Toit.

Oksana Chusovitina is simply amazing. She' a 33 year old GYMNAST who won a silver medal in individual vault event. Yup, 33 year old gymnast. She is not a typical gymnast with ponytail hair with pink and purple tights. And the reason behind her return to top gymnastics is incredible too. She did it because it helps to pay for her son's leukemia treatment in Germany. She was from Uzbekistan (which is those funny funny countries that u never know whether it's a european nation or asian nation. But was formerly part of Soviet Union, if that helps). And all these just goes to show that if u set ur heart onto something, it can be done.

And she just sort of cast my mind to Dara Torres, the 41 American swimmer. I still remembered her standing next in blocks with Cate Campbell, who is a 16 year old Aussie swimmer.... Haha... what a big contrast.

Natalie du Toit is also amazing. She is the first female amputee swimmer ever to compete in Olympics. And she was swimming for 10km! I saw her during the Commonwealth 2006 games actually and her courage is amazing. Admire her.

Hmm, this games seems to be full of surprises isn't it?

Anyway, I am having too much work these days. Sorry for all the people I have to cancel on meeting! Shall see how it goes... once I have the time, shall call u guys up again!

Ok, I should be reading about retail stuff right now. Blog next time.

Cheerios.
