Weekend is too sweet! :)))

A few first times this weekend. :)) HAHAHA! Life's just too sweet for me. 

First time preparing CNY stuff for the whole department! :) Yeah, it is my first time having CNY celebrations with my colleagues. The first round is the Lou Hei session, which I bought from さかえ @ White Sands (Many thanks to Shawn for trusting his car with me. ^_^!!!!). 

For $128, we had this Chinese New Year bundle consisting of a large Yu Sheng, a sushi patter and a "side-dishes" patter. Quite worth it, and it was very filling. :))

:) Our Furnace peeps, together with Fab 10 transfer guys. And of course, not to forget those who work real hard in the fab! :))) 

And right after the Lou Hei, I had to prepare a food corner for these work-too-hard guys. Spent the Saturday whole afternoon in Giant shopping and queuing (for more than 20 minutes) to pay for all the stuff. And at night, went on to Chinatown to do some shopping. That's where the 2nd first time comes.

Getting caught in the big rain while shopping for 年货 in Chinatown.o.O!!!

Imagine it's open space and only some small canvas above your head to prevent those stalls from the rain. -_-"" My legs were soaked and super uncomfortable. But lucky, I still manage to grab a few stuff for the food corner and myself. ^_^!!! And seriously, this is the first time it rains while I'm shopping for CNY goodies after so many years.

We parked the car at Central, Clarke Quay, and I gotten my 3rd first time. I drove down the spiral car park myself! HAHAHA! And yes, it was quite dizzy, but I made it down safely. Just when I thought it's going to be a smooth trip home, the rain starts to get heavier. -_-"" And I haven't tried driving in such heavy rain before (consider my first time again). A bit panic but no choice cause I couldn't stop the car and switch driver. HAHAHA! I was driving an average of 60 on the expressway. O.o!!! But Mr. was always on the lookout for danger. Heex! Home safely. After almost 45 minutes.:)))

Totally random, but this is yet another 第一次 for my nails! HAHAHA! :) Cost me a bomb though, =.=||

Looks so princess-y! <3! But now I wonder how am I going to work with these nails? HAHAHA! ^_^!!!

:) The small food corner for all the peeps in my section. I know they work really hard, so this is the reward for you guys! HAHAHA! It might not be a lot, but I really hope you guys can enjoy this small gesture. 

P.S: Welcome feedback to the welfare team. :)) /giggles!

And of course, many thanks to Andrew for driving us / carrying stuff for us on this last minute shopping trip! :))
Last but not least, a self-shot to end the night with. :)) Heex!

Super tired by the time all the food corners are set up in all sections. Am lucky cause Mr. came and fetch me home  in the super duper heavy rain. Say no to the long train ride! :) Thank YOU!

Busy-yawning-away,
saRah! :)))

Now I know the meaning of 尾牙 :))

Just had our 尾牙 dinner last Wednesday! Damn fun, damn high, and damn happy! A long list of places before finally settling on Brewerkz, Clarke Quay. ^_^!!!

We cab-ed down since we know we're going to get drunk (LOL!) but still safety comes first! And luck's on our side because the waiting time for us to get a table is short. :)) I guess not many people would like to get drunk when it's only the mid-week.


And this bunch of 大哥们s (excluding Miss Cresent) can really drink! HAHAHA! 3 towers, all GONE! We had the Golden Ale for our 1st tower. A bit sweet, but smooth. Something to loosen up our taste buds for the main courses! *yumilicious!* 

Some of the main courses we had for our dinner, and along the way, lots and lots of laughter! :)) And more beer! LOL!

My female partner for the night! :) And there's Senior Tng happily showing his "Ace" away. HAHAHA! ^_^!!

And I'm the 啤酒妹, serving beer for everyone! :)))

The 2nd tower: xTra IPA! And indeed, IPA is added inside. It's too bitter, yet surprisingly, we managed to finish up the whole tower! I guess 团结就是力量, 1 glass for everyone and we're done! :))) Still, it's not enough for everyone, so the last tower: Wheat beer. Sweeeettttt, I <3! Cheers!!! And this last tower is enough to down some of us. HAHAHA!


Everyone looks quite "well-drank" for the night. Red face! LOL! Especially you. *HAHAHA!*
:) Now, what's life if there's nothing to look forward to everyday? From now on, prepare for some serious get-togethers to fit into your oh-so-busy daily life. ^_^!!!  

P.S Something off, but someone says I look like a small princess today. *LOL!*

A little gift .............

In the midst of preparing a small surprise for someone. :))) hehehehehe!

Hopefully he will like it, and I'm sure it will come in handy! ^_^!!! Trust me, you will need these lots! *giggles!*All I need now is a box to put all the stuff in. And maybe an instruction sheet, cause I got this feeling he doesn't know how to use them. -_-""

I'm especially happy on this Monday morning. HAHAHA! Literally jump all the way from home to the station  and to the workplace. It just gets better the whole day! ^_^!!!

Many many many thanks to my Honey for these goodies! All the way from Korea! HAHAHA! And of course, for helping me bring my loots all the way back! Must be super heavy! :)))

And I'm just a lucky girl cause I found this Elmo purse! HOHOHO! It was love at first sight! So cute that I wanna act like Elmo, but fail quite badly ............

You know what I mean. HAHAHA! See how happy I am with my new red purse! LOL! ^_^!!!

Time to head for bed, surprise gift sitting right on the table. *YAY!*

:) Am one lucky girl, with these bunch of friends

Woke up smiling, must be all the drinks I had consumed the night before (or should I say few hours ago?). These people can be super wild, but still they are fun to enjoy a drink (or more) together. Thanks for the invitation! ^_^!!!

:))) And was chatting with another friend on facebook, when she mentioned this. I couldn't agree more with her! *happily smiling away!*


I do have a bunch of great colleagues to work with! ^_^!!! Although there's lots of teasing around, I know they don't mean it. It's always a gift to be able to put a smile on another person! And I intend to have this gift everyday, making people smile is going to be my everyday goal! *beams!*


P.S. Thanks for fetching me home. :))) -ありがとう!-

Who will you choose?

:))) Some random thoughts again! Out of the blue again. :) 

I was asking him a total "assuming" question (those that has no right or wrong answer). If he has to choose between the mum and the unborn child, who will he choose? I know you guys must be wondering why in the world I would ask such question.

HAHAHA! Well, it just pop up in my mind.

Just recently, I read a book on how the dad is in dilemma when 2 most important people in his world are just a line separated between life and death. Imagine you have to make such a decision. :(((

Now back to his answer, (without any hesitation) he told me "I will choose the mum". I was quite taken aback by his reaction and also his answer. He went on saying that there's always another chance to have another baby, but there's only one wife.

*Hmmm, deep thoughts went through my mind.* 

So, I gave him another scenario. "What if the mum can't have another child again? So that's the only child  you have with your wife. Will you still choose the mum?"

He said "Yes, I will still choose the mum." (Quite unexpected!)

I argue with him that it's not right of him to decide whether the baby lives or not. And that we should let the mum decides who to live since her own life is at stake.

"I only have one wife. If she doesn't live, the child has to live with me, without a mother's love, and both of us will be miserable." And that answer is enough to convince me that whoever the wife is, she is safe for the rest of her life. Safe from his love for her. 

HAHAHAHA! Totally random, but interestingly enough, I know him a bit more now.

P.S: I think this question was posted quite long ago and till now, I remember that I didn't publish it!

:) As request by you, I took the post off. And replace it with this! *beams* For you, hope you like it. :)

:) I think this is much nicer that the previous one I did. *HAHAHA!* :))) I seem to be spending more time decorating my photos nowadays. Am considering to get myself a desktop, and install Photoshop so that I can start to create some sweet memories! ^_^!!! 

Just some thoughts. It seems like time really do bring people together or further away. Sometimes, I'm just afraid to take the first step, however small it is. Reason being, scared. I've never been lost for words in front of people, but you turn out to be my first. And it's weird, because we used to crap the most unbelievable things. Let's just hope that this doesn't last, and it's back to old times! :)

Anyway, it's a day to be happy about! BONUS!!! HOHOHO! Time to save up for my trip! 
P.S: It's going to be in MAY! :))) HAHAHAHA! I just can't wait for it to come! ^_^!!!

I'm back! And you must be wondering why I can blog at this timing. Ain't I supposed to be at work? -_-"" 

Well, just my luck, falling sick at this time of the year. I mean the weather is so cooling, not much strong sunlight, I should be out and about. But yesterday night, I didn't sleep well at all. The cough is keeping me awake and the nose is blocked till I can smell nothing. *Bleah!*  

Anyway, the past 2 days I'm a happy girl! All because of these...............

Met up my BFF last Friday (like finally, it's kind of hard to meet up nowadays), and I made her waited for an hour! -.-"" Last minute discussion with the boss. Anyway, she brought me to The Soup Spoon for our dinner, and it was yummy! I never tried this place before even though I always passed by. So this is another first time for me! ^_^!!!

The set meal includes a sandwich of your choice, a regular bowl of soup (ranges from mushrooms to pumpkin) and a cup of ice-tea. The portion is quite big and very filling since the soup is very thick. 

Breaded buttons, in fact it's just mushrooms inside with a little bit of cheese? :) Our side dish. 

After dinner, we walked around Bugis street (to help digestion) and I bought a half Maxi Dress with 10 buttons. LOL! I wondered whether I looked short in it, but in the end I still bought it, since it costs me 12 bucks only. HAHAHAHA!
It was still early so we went on to Plaza Singapura to catch a movie, and in the meantime while waiting, we dropped in TCC for a cup of yumilicious drink. 

 My Green apple smoothie, and her Hazel Bella. ^_^!!!!

The movie we watched............
HAHAHAHA! Don't ask me what are those words, I don't know (They are Thai words, though). But here in Singapore, this is Hello Stranger. ^_^!!!

Even before the start of the movie, we (BFF and myself) were already laughing at ourselves. We heard that this movie is really nice from our friends, so thought that we could try it out and see how is it. We know nothing about this movie. And I mean NOTHING. Who is the cast, what is the storyline, and where is the show filmed at. We just based on the title and thought that it is a Hollywood movie. ^_^!!! And guess how we reacted when the show started and we don't understand a single word (unless we read the subtitles). We thought that we went to the wrong movie theater. -.-""
 
But who cares, the show started, so just watch. I must pre-warned you, you'll be having some serious stomach cramps throughout the whole show. I was laughing like nobody's business, till I think I disturb the people in front of me. HAHAHA! Both leads have very good 默契 that keeps people sitting on the edge of their seats. 

Sometimes I do wonder, if really such love stories happen in real life? :)))

Anyway, here's the trailer.......


It's so nice, that the next day I brought Mr. to watch this movie. And I laughed throughout the show again. HAHAHAHA!

Go watch the movie! It's worth every cent of your $$$!

1st post of the year! ^_^!!!

:) Had a great Christmas,  a fabulous New Year countdown, and a wonderful (and sweet) New Year Day! I can't ask for more to this start of a brand new year. :))) 

Lots of photos waiting to be uploaded. And I mean all the way before Christmas till now.But they still need some touch-up. So be patient for a while more. I'll try to finish all the editing by the end of the week. HAHAHA!

In the meantime, enjoy the lively atmosphere everywhere as we welcome 2011 with open arms. ^_^!!!!
