No Life!

I know I said that I won't be blogging anymore. But since work started, I have cut down on my computer usage, reason being too tired after reaching home, or nothing to do online since my top reason for turning on the computer in the past was to type reports and do research, and surf Facebook/Tudou when I get bored of school work. Now that I don't have school work to get bored of, I don't really feel motivated to surf Facebook/Tudou anymore.

Life has changed after almost two weeks of work. There are many things that I have to readjust to. One of the biggest changes thus far should be the No Life-ness. Haha.

The nature of my work, I would say, is more Physically draining than the usual. I still get my usual post-lunch coma that everybody gets, safe the fact that I have no chance to stay still or fall asleep. It's tiring, in the way that you have to stay alert at all times, keep moving around, and be very active. Plus point is, I don't have to worry about work anymore once I step out of my work place. Minus point is, I probably work more than 50 hours a week.

No Life-ness stems from the long working hours, I would say. I wake up minutes before 6am every day, so I've been sleeping at average of 11pm. That is so goddamn early for me, as compare to before! But, usually, by the time I reach home, I would be so tired that I wouldn't mind sleeping early anyway. Plus, like I said, there's nothing to do online. Haha. Nowadays, I just spend my free time reading books and watching TV. Even one of the first things on my to-buy list after I get my salary is a book -.-''

See? No Life! Hahaha! Oh well. I'm not really complaining (yet). This is neither better nor worse than school life to me la. At least my lovely still works near me, and I get to knock off together with him a few times a week :) Yea, maybe you would say my concern sounds very No Life-ish too. Haha.

Caught Shrek, and ate at Old Airport Road this week. Going to ky's house for homemade steamboat later. Meeting xian tmr for some talk and catch up. I'm happy with the week thus far! :)

*yawns* Little Miss No Life is tired. hahaa. Happy Vesak Day! Enjoy your long weekend which i'm deprieved of! Haha.

Indian condom ad - Haha! This is quite amusing

I don't think i can ever sell this condom! Everytime somebody come buys from me, i will imagine him/her in the dance! -.- Hahaha

But I must say this would make quite a good ad for sex education! wahaha

Quick update

Just came back from short getaway to Bintan with dear, mabbie and her bf wilson on sunday. Lazy to upload photos haha.

And have been going out quite abit. Just came home from gathering with the manics :) so nice! hee. Not forgetting, met up with porkie too almost 2 weeks ago to sing k :) :)

Work's starting next monday! (Initially I typed "school's starting" hahaa must change that natural tendency!) Not really dreading it, just not looking forward to no more slack time~ haha.

Kind of lost interest in blogging I think =X I think i will further lose interest after my work starts and i reach home tired. hahaha. Maybe my blog will start collecting dust soon =X

Must emphasize my unhappiness with NTU convocation schedulers everywhere I go. Convocation @ 6pm! Wth is wrong with them man!! Super annoyed. Graduation liao also don't let ppl graduate happily! -.- haha we should really go earlier to take photos before dark~

Alrighttt. All the best people! I'll be here on and off~ =) Maybe i'll blog more if working life is boring! Lol.

My Lovely's 27th Birthday! =)

Heh. Shall blog about my Lovely's birthday! =)

This year's birthday was celebrated 2 days in a row! Haha. He had his usual party-gathering with his secondary school friends at his house on the actual day. So I celebrated with him earlier one day in advance!

We went to a japanese restaurant along Tanjong Katong Road. It's called Minori-Ya. Actually my brother went to the other branch at UE Square before, and said it was better than Kuishinbo (it's ala-carte buffet). But like I said in the previous entry, that branch closed down liao, so we went to the TK branch instead.

BAH. It was really really bad! Initially when we went in, the ambience was quite good, and the appetizer and all that was not too bad. The menu did not have as much stuff as Kuishinbo, but it had more non-desert-ish stuff, if you get what I mean. Haha. Ok, nvm~ then the restaurant started getting more and more crowded, and it started going wayyy out of hand. We stopped like 3 waiters to get our drinks refilled, and it still wasn't refilled after 20 minutes. And likewise, had to stop 3 or 4 waiters to get our order taken (each time, they went like hold on ah, hold on ah, and never came back). And they super buay zi dong! We finish eating what we ordered liao, and the table was so full of empty plates, and so many waiters walked past with empty trays, also didn't bother to clear the table! And when they tried to serve more food, but the table was too full with plates already, they stacked the plates in one corner, put down the newly-served food, and walked away without clearing that stack of plates!!! -.- The food wasn't particularly nice either! Initially it seemed quite good (don't know whether was it we were hungry). But after awhile we realize they seemed to use the same seasoning for every single dish! They all tasted the same although they were very different dishes! BOO. So terrible. Shall never go back there again! Bad service bad food! Haha. Didn't bother to take food photos either~

Anyway, moving on to presentsssssss. This year, there were two presents for the Lovely! The first one was a coin pouch. Haha feel so paiseh talking about this coz it sounds very lame~ But nwae, lovely needed one coz he lost his previous one. And I know he's definitely unwilling to change his wallet coz it's still very new, very nice, and from his good friends. Yup, so I got him a Goldlion coin pouch, which was very nice, but I forgot to took a photo of! Hahah.

The next present is the main highlight nwae! :p

I got Lovely a create-your-own Starbucks Tumbler! Haha. I must declare that it was unintentional that I bought him a Nike bottle in the 1st year, a Nalgene bottle in the 2nd year, and a Starbucks tumbler this year! Lol.

Well, anyway, the rationale being I thought it would be good if he could put a tumbler in his office so that he can make hot drinks, and erm, keep them hot. Hahaha. And well, the create-your-own was of coz just to make it more personalized la. Haha.

Yes, so I tried very hard to come up with the design given my super limited designing skills. I tried to pick up Photoshop, but to super uber no avail. Haha. Picasa didn't seem to be very helpful this time. So I resorted to using Microsoft Powerpoint. Haha, ya I know very noob -.-

So after many days of editing, this was what I ended up with:

Haha. I thought it looked a little kiddy =X But nwae it looked quite nice when put into the tumbler ok! Hahaha =X But the problem was that, after I put it into the tumbler, I started to worry that it looked abit too kiddy for him to put in his office. Haha. So I made the design double-sided! And the above design I faced it inwards, then for the outer design, I put:

Wahaha! Super dots right! Don't xiao kan that apple look so simple. I couldn't find the right size of apple against the appropriate background, and had to cut and paste the apple out myself ok!! Lol.

But in the end, Lovely, being very lovely, was very happy with the original personalized design~ Lol. So erm...

Hahaha! He decided to flip this side outwards to use! :D Wheee! Although cut and paste the apple for nothing, but i'm still happy Lovely likes it the way it was! :)

Hee. Anyway, as always, the bottles I buy for Lovely always comes in pairs! :p And if you noticed, I wrote Happy 27th Birthday on his tumbler. But I didn't know what to write on mine -.- So to make it matching, although it's not very appropriate, but....... I wrote Happy 23rd Birthday for myself!! HAHAHA. So lame I know~

Lol!

This was on the way back home on the bus~ :)

*

Ok, the next day, was... LABOUR DAY!! Wahaha~ Deardear very sad, always don't get recognized by his friends de. They'll come to his house and wish him Happy Labour Day! Lol.

And for those who're curious to know, the cake was bought from http://cakesandpastries.blogspot.com/, it's a secondary schoolmate's mummy's blogshop. Haha.

By right, this is their most famous cake:Chocolate Banana Maltesers cake, which I wanted to try la. Looks super yummy! :) Haha. But dear's family all don't eat bananas except for his mummy. So I ordered the same cake minus the bananas.

It was not bad, except dear's fridge seemed to have overloaded that day, so the cake was not cold enough I think. Hahaa. But I think i'll still head down to the cafe the blogshop supplies to (Food For Thought) one day to try the with banana version of the cake! :p

Heh. This is the only photo I shall post, coz the rest got his friends and family, which I don't think all of them want to appear in my blog. Lol.

And that's the end of The Lovely Boyfriend's birthday celebration! Simple, but happy time spent together! :)

Hope you had a great time like I did. Love you! :)

Happy 27th Birthday, My Love! =)

Lovely's Birthday Preparation- 23 April Friday
Feel so relieved today! Hehe. Have been encountering quite a few hiccups while preparing for Lovely's birthday! The Starbucks tumbler was out of stock when I tried to go back to Tampines to buy a second one for myself -.-''' They had to call quite a few branches for me to check for stock many of which had no stock too. In the end, the staff got very busy, and passed me more numbers to call by myself. Ended up heading to Changi Airport Terminal 2 in my lok cok clothes (I was only prepared to go Tampines buy liao then go home already!) to buy the tumbler. Haha.

And anyway, I've been having quite a lot of problems with the tumbler design for a week or more. It's finally settled today! Yay!! Felt so happy when it was done :D

Then I tried to call to make dinner reservations at the restaurant today. There were 2 branches, and I wanted to go the one my brother recommended/went before. So I called up the number, but got some sort of weird Singtel message. After a few times, I just called up the other branch and asked why the first branch had no answer. And they told me that branch ceased operation already. .......... !!??? *stunned* haha nvm, made reservation at the other branch anyway.

Oh, and I managed to order the cake for Lovely's party too, from a secondary schoolmate, whose mummy bakes cakes to sell at a blogshop and also supplies cakes to some cafes. Heh. Was cracking my head where to get cake, coz didn't want to buy from somewhere that bought before liao de.. And after exchanging many many FB messages with that friend, managed to finalized the details liao. Whee!! Hopefully the cake would be nice! :)

Almost everything's set to go now. Feel so relieved!! :) Was so afraid couldn't prepare everything in time, with exams in the way and all that.

Special thanks to Mabbie whom I bugged many many times to ask for opinion about my tumbler designs and the cake details. Yay! Xie xie ni fei chang fei chang duo! =D

Now I feel extremely radiantly happy! *hums a cheerful tune* ^^

Happy Birthday, Lovely!! I hope you had a wonderful time so far! :)
Te quiero! =P
