Wii...!

Had a cosy all girls gathering at MW's place yesterday. Great fun. Went crazy playing Nintendo Wii and we were all so physically drained by the end of the evening. Guess that's enough exercise for the week! ;)

Letting go...

In preparation of my leaving, we decided it was best that I started training my next in line to take over my work. Handing over has already begun and it is starting to depress me. I must learn to let go however hard it is.

No one is truly indispensable.

中秋节

With Mid- Autumn Festival around the corner, what better way to celebrate than with a nice hot pot of Chinese tea and my favourite snow-skin mooncakes? =)

PS. The green tea mooncake from Ritz Carlton is particularly good! Skin stays soft despite refrigeration. Am most impressed!

Much anticipated break =)

I have just booked my flight tickets to Switzerland in October! It is only for shortly over a week but I just wanna get out of this country and far away from work! Will get to bunk in with a colleague of mine who is currently staying there with her hubs. Hopefully I'll get to visit my friend in Germany as well if his schedule allows. Can't wait! Woohoo!!!

I spy with my little eye...

Why do I have this feeling that someone I know is secretly reading my blog?
Well, then again...maybe not. ;)

Tis the season for getting marrrieeed!

I have already got 5 wedding invitations starting from next week till December! Do these people know what they are getting themselves into?! :P
Anyhoo, here's Austin Powers and his mojo from our hen party last night.


May the bride-to-be have a very productive year ahead! *Yeah baby!* =)

Need. Some. Love.

It was a last minute decision to have the contractors come in to fix our lights and paint the ceiling yesterday under the watchful eye of my MIL. Now here I am on my only Saturday off in weeks with three loads of laundry and an extremely filthy home. My curtains have also been removed and hooked back incorrectly so now they can't open properly and I can't rectify it without a really tall ladder. Sucks really. Wish there is someone else in the apt who can help me. I need my mommy! =(

A reason, a season or a lifetime...

It all makes sense now. That it was only meant to be for a season. Friendship that will however last a lifetime in our hearts. =)

"That's it? You made me come here first thing in the morning for this?"

That was what the contractor said after assessing the situation in my home today. Gosh...what was he hoping to find? My whole apartment in shatters?!? *faints*
Anyway, they have removed the dangling piece of ceiling so I am feeling much more at ease now. Kept having the mental image of the loose piece falling and crashing through my windows! Am keeping my fingers crossed that the rest of my false ceiling in the living room do not decide to give way as well. Apparently the previous contractor (from the previous owner) had not secured the wood panel properly so there is a possibility that I might get smashed to pancake just sitting under my roof watching TV. *gasps!* Better go inspect for cracks now....@@

The day my roof came crashing down...

Ok, actually it is more like my ceiling came crashing down. The wood panel for my false ceiling must have weakened and gave way resulting in this:


Thank goodness my main living room ceiling is still intact and no one was hurt. Why do these things happen to me? Sigh.
