Shit part 3

My god i think i am going to cry. I think i lost my watch after the nite at the movies. the thing is, i seldom wear my watch ever since i had my hp. All because of the stupid wedding i went to wear it after god knows how long. I remember taking it out and playing with it during the movie because its so uncomfortable wearing one after so long.... omg and its a gift from my mother for my 20th bday. MA DE and its sovil titus watch... and my mother just went to wash it for me so its like god damn sparkling.

Somehow i hope its somewhere in my house and i misplaced it after my drunken stupor/very tired nite at the movies. i think i better go back and look for it later... hoping that the cinema and comfort cab gimme some good news. SIAN. super duper sian.

Red Dot rocks

This weekend kinda rocks despite the laptop situation (i am so afraid that if i switch off my laptop it is never coming back on).

Anyway Friday was equivalent to half day off cos we had My JTC Day held at Biopolis. Yours truly was part of Team Exemplary (Best). Mai siao siao ok. hahaha. Aiyah but seriously i think my contribution was insignificant. So at 5pm we could leave and i went to meet Siwei at Vivo. Went to get a pair of jeans and ate at Marche before going to watch Wolverine, which wasnt engaging at all. Quite kua zhang.

Saturday was super shiong. Went to my colleague's wedding dinner at Amara... er not really very nice. But our entire table nearly wiped out like 5 bottles of wine i think. hahaha not a good idea to invite drunkards to wedding.... hahhaa. Den after that went to meet Weitee and Fk at Red Dot. Utilised my 50bucks voucher. SHIOK. tried red dot lime wheat tower. not bad, but could be a little stronger. but who cares its practically free.

Shili and Adi were singing again so of cos i had to use my connections with them to make them sing songs for me. HAHA loves it. Talked a lot of cock. talk and talk and talk. complain about how life sucks. how we are all still single. talked about renting room together. hah.

Then went to watch 150am Angels and Demons with Weitee. OMG seriously note to self: never ever watch past midnite show. EVER AGAIN. i think i slept thru like almost half the show and i didnt even wake up to watch the ending. Seriously too tired and a bit too tipsy to enjoy a movie. but for the parts that i did watch, it was not bad. haha looks like i got to re read the storybook.

Today is rest day. read up other frens blog. Bao bao, dismas, please go update ur blogs regularly. and more photos please!!

shit part 2

Sian.... i think i really have to send my laptop for servicing on Monday. I am using it on safe mode... and safe mode apparently has no sound. so i cant watch my videos. I brought my office laptop back but i was smart enuff not to bring back the charger. SO SMART cannot take it.

Thankfully i have a fulled loaded weekend so i wun be needing the laptop that much. argh. boooooo

shit

My fujitsu laptop crashed. i am in a state of dispair. I dunno what happened. it was working fine. den.... it just hung and made a wierd noise. and it restarted. i knew something was wrong. i hurry up went to burn all my photos into a cd. and i tot it was ok... and then it happened again. it was nearing sleeping time so i didnt think much about it althou i had a nagging feeling it is really gone for good.

this morning i woke up and tried to switch it on. Again. a wierd pixelated screen came up and i have no idea what the hell that was. i had to go to work so i just shut it down. SIAN. called up IT coop and apparently i can still go back and repair even thou i already graduated cos the warranty still stands.... but the problem is... where the hell am i going to find time to go back and repair if it bloody closes at 530pm. MA DE.

SO SCREWED. i am going back to try to revive it so i can at least transfers my muzak. if not i will cry.

Snap back to reality

2 weeks of not working = 600 unread emails
My heart nearly dropped. the first half of Monday was basically spent trying to speed read and mass sort emails into diff folders. nice.

Besides that, the first 2 days of work were surprising manageable. except i get really tired by 9pm. like now :(

I feel damn fat and i need to start my gym regime again. stat. I just saw my credit card bill and i nearly died. AYE. the things we pay for a 2 week holiday :( Got to attend a wedding this sat. for someone i dun exactly care for. 100bucks down the drain. geez.

Sidenote: i've met so many pple during my trip on work and travel visa. i wished i had the courage to just quit and go work temp jobs in another countries and save and travel at the same time. i think those pple are so damn brave. no one in spore would have the guts to do that.

argh this is so not working out. i need some signs... some direction. wait... lemme go check on my toto now... WISH ME LUCK....

DAMMIT... strike 2 nos. cannot quit. MA DE. kill me now. i hate work.

Australia Part 8

So the next day we took a day tour to the pinnacles and en route we stopped at Caversham park to see more animals... but by then we were not say super interested since we already saw them in Tasmania.... the Wombat here is like supersize-me size.... DAMN FAT AND BIG. not cute at all. hahaha. in fact very scary.

The entire day was spent mostly on the coach.... man. If there are 3 things i dun like about australia. its the price, the shops that close too early and all the attractions are SO FAR APART u just wanna kill urself in the coach. The pinnacles were quite spectacular... just thousands of compacted stones in the deserts.... we had the time of our lives there camwhoring and trying to act model. wait till u see the pictures.

Den we also went sand boarding. i tell u ma de bloody hell... the sand dune was so high i really wanted to chicken out when i got up there. the slope was so steep and it was so high. i wanted to just walk down. but i cannot paiseh cos a lot of aunties were up there too. so i went down and oh my god it was so scary and i zam my legs into the sand and the sand all flew into my face. WIPEOUT. hahahha. but i wasnt the only one. all the rest also..... so i dun feel so bad. i had such a hard time trying to get the sand out of my mouth, eyes, nostrils, ears that i decided not to go up again.

Van on the other hand had a failed first try cos she stopped halfway (for being toooo.... skinny i think. HAHA) so she went up. BAM! WIPEOUT!! WORSE THAN ME. she had sand IN HER MOUTH. funny ass shit. it was nearly sunset and the colors were magnificent purple. ONe auntie in the group (did i mention 99% of the tour grp were singaporean) keep helping us take pictures together cos i think she thinks we are together..... for the record. we are SO NOT TOGETHER.

We finally reached back in Perth at nite. Pia to supermarket to buy groceries so we can cook our dinner at Huilins house... which turned out disastrous cos we bought too many things and we arent exactly cooks. HAHA.

The next day we went to rottnest island which is their version of Pulau Ubin, but 100times bigger. Damn ex. the ferry costed 50plus per person and we were by that time, all short of money already. quite scary, not having money with u. the bicycles costed 26bucks and needed a 25bucks deposit. wtf. sianzzzz DaMn ex cannot take it.

but the island was pretty with beaches everywhere. theres a little piece of heaven for everyone. we snorkelled too but i think quite waste money cos the fishes and corals are so dull in that kind of cold waters. after a day of cycling we chilled at a beach, resting our sore legs and just enjoying a final day of holidays before going home...

On the last day, did nothing, just waited for our plane.....

so here i am. its a sunday. i have my office laptop with me but i really dun wanna see my emails. i rather leave it till tmr when reality sinks in. argh. inertia. total hate. really really hate to work.

bye bye Australia and hello back again to JTC. not.

Australia Part 7

Sorry for the lack of updates... was too tired.

Anyway the last day in Melbourne we were basically just nua-ing, walking everywhere within the city. We woke up early to go to Prahran Market to buy picnic stuff we need the entire day. We are poor u see... so we can only picnic. So we bought strawberry, salmon dip, spring onion dip, bread, crackers and juice which will last until dinner. we are damn good.

So after that we took the tram to St Kilda beach but ended up taking one stop more... so we had to walk further ma de. And the beach turn out to be such an ugly beach.... look like ECP. not like Bondi. But watever we took so long to get there so might as well eat there.... and then about 100million seagulls started flocking to us... like an Alfred Hitchcock movie gone wrong.... so we changed place to.......

The King's Domain park. The war memorial was there too... which was quite spectacular. The park itself was very serene and the Royal Botanic Gardens was inside too (i love gardensssss!).... so we took another picnic break and then the ducks decided to join in the fun too..... we threw the strawberry heads at them, hoping they would clear our rubbish, but realised they dun like sour things. ahahha.

Went to a few other random places after that and decided to throw van alone and go watch billy elliot. WOOOHOO!!! I queued up for the 50bucks tickets and scored one. SWEET. the seats were a bit back but i moved forward after intermission. hahaha smart right. DAMN SMART. Billy Elliot was ok not too bad but somehow i expected more dancing. Maybe cos the kids are still young so their steps not very polished. BUt the lead actor was quite good..... pirouette like nobody's business. He doesnt look angmoh too.... look like half indian half angmoh bi-racial. So looks very wierd with angmoh parents. I guess i got the nite with the rejected kid... hahhaa (they have several actors playing billy u see....hahaha)

Next day flew to perth. Huilin brought us around to Swan Valley. A whole area with winery, brewery, nougat shops, cocholate shops and ice cream shops. whack all the samples like crazy.... I even whacked a 5 glass beer tester set at 1pm in the afternoon. i know, i am damn cool. and the 2 girls just watched me drink.... hahhaa. And alos bought nearly 100bucks of wine to bring home.... which luckily didnt break in my luggage. YESSSS!!! (alexis dun get too excited... i will probably give away 2 out of the 4. and its not merlot anyway. i bought dessert wine and pink rose wine. HAHAHA)

After that went to chinatown to buy nougat cos its cheaper.... and then to Kings Park to see the skyline.... and off we went to CIAO ITALIA!!!! Remember the first nite i got stuck in perth we wanted to go eat at this restaurant but its too crowded.... this time we went at 5pm and we were the first customers! SHIOK. we ordered and ate like nobody's business. Seafood lasagne, one creamy pasta, calamari and pizza. And please their portions are not like SIngapore puny portions... its gargantuan. Quite scary. Super shiok. u shud see the pictures when van uploads.

ok time for a petite pause.

Australia Part 6

OK so i havent really had internet access for the past 3 days. All i can say is Mebourne rocks my socks off. I love Melbourne more than sydney. For sure.

The first day we arrived in Mebourne and went straight to Queen Victoria market.... selling waaay overpriced clothes.... like a singlet costs 20bucks?? wtf?? Den we followed lonely planets walking tour and walked around the city centre, walking wierd streets and see interesting architecture. Quite cool.

Before going to Melbourne i knew the musical Wicked was playing in Mebourne. So we went to check out the price of the tickets.... freaking hell the cheapest was 119bucks..... dayum.... damn upset.... den we went to Her majesty's theatre and checked out the price of Billy Elliot.... ok cheaper.... 75 onwards.... budden van only wanted to watch Wicked and i really didnt mind paying that obscene amount of cash.... AND SO WE DID WATCH WICKED!!!

We even went back to the hostel to change into our nice clothes cos we dun wanna look too shabby. hahahha. and then we were like "omg do i look like shit in this". I ended up wearing my you've-got-class top and van wore her tights and dress... and she said "omg i will be damn cold in this" and i was like " bitch if u wanna look pretty u have to sacrifice and not wear that hideous cardigan". i think i rock.

Wicked was totally wicked.... the sets were extravagant and the costumes and dance were omg. seriously. Even thou it cant be compared to Phantom (cos phantom is still my first and only love) but it was definitely worth my 119bucks.

THe next day we went on the great ocean road trip which was a hell a lot of driving. i slept almost the entire way while driving. The guide was super crappy and funny thou and that was a plus. I guess i was just tired. But the sights were really quite spectacular. The 12 Apostles were really quite pretty plus some other sights...

By the time we went back it was already nite and shit i cant really remember what we did after that.... oh wait we did nothing cos we are boring old folks. HAHAHAHA okok till next time. very tired to blog. BYE :)

Australia Part 5

It's a cold day in Tassie today...

Yesterday Jeremy drove us to Wineglass bay and we had 2 new girls from California who joined us.... dayum. van has stiff competition. Jeremy was all over the brunette. van was jealous... but watever. its not about them.... its about the view.... which was fantastic. althou, once again we didnt go frolick in the sea even thou the weather was fantastic. didnt have enuff time.... we did all the crazy jumpshots.... of cos i looked like a high fashion model.... but van kept saying i take bad photos of her in the air..... all i can say is 2 words man--- Hang time. longer hang time means nicer jump shots van.... its not the photographer. sorry but the truth hurts.

We went to a nice resto for a drink last nite.... on the way there, some drunkards in a van (not van, but an actual van with wheels) drove past us and yelled "DIRTY CHINESE!!".... we were like what the hell just happened and we started laughing.... shuddap alright u dirty caucasians.... at least i bathe everyday and i probably earn more than any of u cheap bastards. I drank Moo's dark ale while van drank Cascade premium light.... which smelt like piss. and we shared a piece of cheesecake..... dammit van. why cant u be the one i love...

we waited till 1045pm for the band at the irish pub to play.... but they havent even set up their equipment and we were the only "dirty chinese" in the pub.... and we were a bit.... unsettled. so we decided to just go back and sleep.... i think i am becoming boring.... but at least i got my daily fix of beer from the tap. which is the shiokest thing in the world.

Today, we woke up late cos we didnt have much things planned out. We headed to Salamanca market.... and basically stayed there till past noon.... buying food as we walked, and shopping for gifts for other pple... sian i hate buying gifts... cos once u buy for one person u got to buy for 10 others. damn sian. the hole in my pocket getting bigger. hahhaa

It started to rain.... which gives me an excuse to come back to the hostel (which we already checked out... so basically i am an illegal immigrant) to use the net... and watched some youtube. I know.... come all the way to Australia to use internet.... budden its really raining... and van wants to shop. and i dun. and its cold.

We nua-ed till 430pm and waited for the rain to stop. it didnt. but we headed out for a walk recommended by lonely planet anyway becos we didnt have much time left.... we walked in the rain. she held the umbrella, i read the map. the stick of the brolly keeps knocking muy head cos i am too tall... we walked to the harbour and saw some fish and chip stall and decided to go back there for dinner afterwards. it turned dark. was rather scary. we walked thru a park which was previously a cemetary... we were the only people there. not a good idea.... it was already like 830pm when it was only 6. the historical area of battery point probably looks like wisteria lane but it looked like shit in the dark.

we saw the restaurant which Jeremy recommended. Da Angelo. We thought we shud go in and try some pizza since he said it was good. IT WAS GOOD. like. the best pizza i ever eaten. shiok like siao. we thought.... we shudden eat the fish and chips after all since we were already full.... and it was still raining and we finished our walk..... it was only 745pm.

So, we are back in the hostel. waiting for our flight at 6am to melbourne. staying as illegal immigrants in the lounge. hoping no one will find out. and i am here, updating my blog.... thinking if i shud go and bathe later.... i probably shud, if i dun wanna be called a dirty chinese. Ma de. Dulan.

but its damn cold. :(

Australia Part 4

Anyway before i talk abt what we did today, let's rewind to yesterday. We were at port arthur and we could press a button (i know very lame) and see what crime we've commited. It's jsut a very random thing...... and guess what, my crime was for being a drunkard. HAHAHAH loves it right. okok moving on.

Today we woke up as usual. i tell u i lead a more healthy life on holiday than in Spore. wake up early and sleep early. we met a french guy who's from lyon on the tour. damn its a small world. and i think he has the hots for van..... hahah too bad he not good looking. hahah. The guide drove us to Mt Field National park for some bushwalking.... dunno why they call it bushwalking when its just like.... hiking. anyway its quite cool. and very cold. in fact it's colder today than yesterday... probably cos we are in the forest.....

Den we went to the top of the nature reserve and i tell u..... my ears nearly dropped on the floor.... it was damn cold. cold like hell. it was so cold i had to whip out my beanie. hahah. ok the 2nd walk was kinda lame... the guide (Jeremy, who van has the hots for) made us try wild berries and leaves.... the berries were nice, not so much the leaves. den after that we went to see tall trees.... hahaha. I know. we paid 2000 bucks to see tall trees. but really they were quite magnificent.

Of cos the highlight of day was to see the ANIMALS!!!! omg damn cute. i tell u. i wanted to die.... we saw wallabies, kangaroos, possums, koalas (OMG DAMN CUTE) and the cutest thing on earth--- WOMBATSSSSSSSSS!!!! DISMAS REALLY LOOK LIKE U!!! even van said so. fat like fuck and cute like mad. ball of fur! and its a baby... cuddling up like a soft toy in the guide's arms. i really wanted to die. dismas i found this wombat soft toy i buy for u! hehehe.

so yeah after that we drove to mount wellington which is like the highest peak in Tasmania and the view was GORGEOUS. but i think i would have a ppreciated it more if the wind wasnt howling like mad and if it wasnt so cold. its the coldest thing i have ever experienced.... even if it were snoiwing in lyon, it wasnt this cold. wind chill effect man seriously..... i was running back to the van i was tearing like crazy... it was THAT cold. i dunno if its becos i super kang kor or the tears just come out..... like mucus coming out of the nose when u are cold.

So we came back and van found out Jeremy was going to be our guide tmr for the wineglass bay tour... and he likes to swim so van is SUPER excited. Can someone say "slut" please. hahhahaha. watever. den we went to eat KFC.... i know lame. but we are trying to save money. and their kfc quite nice. salty. just the way i like it.

We went to and irish pub at about 7plus for drinks and nachos. there was supposed to be a band playing at 9plus but we didnt wanna wait.....so we will be going back again tmr.... at a later time.

Yeap.... about time i went to sleep..... damn healthy cannot take it. looking forward to nice weather tmr so i can do frolick in the sea. haha

Australia Part 3

On the last day in Sydney, Van and I went to Sydney Fish market cos some of my colleagues told me they just cook whatever they catch that day.... so early in the morning, we took the train and bua with all the ang moh liu lians, looking all dapper in their suits and winter wear. DAYUM i think i wanna be born ang moh next life.... all of them look them good. Even the ugliest ones look better than ur average asian. hahaha

So when we reached the fish market, we were like a bit disappointed cos it looks nothing like we expected (ie... a Spore wet market). It's more like warehouses.... and we didnt really find the food we wanted. they were more like restaurants.... but we figured since we came here liao might as well walk a bit.... so we walk and we walk and we walke futher in... and we went inside this complex.... VOILAAAAAA the food court like place with all the seafood they would cook on the spot!!!!

So we went crazy and started ordering all the seafood we saw. at 10am in the morning. we whacked

1. 6 oysters (8.50aud)
2. salmon fillet with chips (9.90aud)
3. fried calamari (9.50aud)

the oysters were like the freshest shit in the entire world. i swear. i'm never going to eat other oysters cos its not going to be as good as this. and the salmon omg is like not bad.... calamari was so so.... so we were like a bit thirsty. and we were like.... "shud we get beer?"... and i was like.... "hell yeah".... so i ran to the wine place and all i could hear was alexis bitch's voice telling me the nite before "just whack the alcohol la.... van will thank u when u make her an alcoholic!".... so i bluff van that there wasnt any beer and i bought the cheapest chardonnay instead.... at 10am in the morning!!! SHIOK LIKE MAD! (sorry van i lied to u..... go kill alexis). So in the end it was a 40bucks breakfast/lunch. Damn ex. but super shiok.

Den we walked to Darling harbour.... people watched. ate the chips we bought and drank the leftover wine (more like i drank since van doesnt really drink much). And then we ate ICE CREAM! hahaha ma de eat and eat. i swear i gonna get fat... but if i counter this with all the walking maybe i wun gain weight......

And we walked summore and headed to bondi beach..... super nice beach. but i think the ones at Bali were better for surfing. we chilled..... we took photos.... all the while thinking how nice it would be if we could surf again..... but its too cold and we were in jeans and sweaters. hahah. den we bought some clothes.... and headed to the airport thereafter.

Virgin blue flights were damn good for budget airline.... for once we have leg space... and they have free tv for like 20mins. after that have to pay.... hahhaha. damn retarded. It was freezing cold in Hobart.... by the time we arrived at the hostel it was nearing 10pm. the hostel was quite dead.... but we already knew that cos we booked it thru hostelworld.... but we didnt expect pple to be sleeping at 10pm. like omg we were so paiseh to on the lights and make a ruckus when 3 of our roomates were already sleeping. den we really had NOTHING to do cos there is no free internet. so i went to sleep at like 11pm.

Today we went to Port Arthur. Follow the tour and realised 2 of our roomates (from Germany) were in the same tour.... not very frenly pple. cos they really didnt try and make any small talk with us.... and they are like what. 18? Wei wei i think u will have fun talking to them if u were here cos u are a male spg and germans are right up ur alley right? hahahah. all i can say to them is zussamen oder getrent. genau. danke shen and tschuss. and i think if i were to actually say that they will slap me. hahaha

The driver was quite funny and he was saying all these nationalistic joke... like he says everyone is singapore is either an engineer or working in finance.... and then he asked me "so cc what do u do for a living" and i was like "engineer" and he clapped his hands and said "YOU SEE!" hanah hanah smart ass.... hahahah.

den we finally reached port arthur and walked around that place.... not bad. but was quite hilly. and our legs really cannot tahan already, after the killer day at blue mountains... and then i think when the 2 of us are tired.... we will lose it. like i will pick a fight with her for no reason..... and then she will mumble (she insists she doesnt)... and i cant hear her and i will go HUH. and she will get mad at me and we will not talk for like 10mins. and then i will monologue on my own for about 20mins. and then we will talk again. Repeat cycle 100times a day. I think we will break up when we reach singapore.

And then we came back and decided we shud cook dinner to save money. so we went to buy maggi mee.... and sausages and mushrooms and bai chai and eggs. thinking we would cook maggi soup for dinner. which turned out to be more like maggi stew cos.... we cooked 5 packets in a row. there water was not hot enuff and there was too many ingredients. i swear. i was so embarrassed becos we cant cook maggi right. hahaha but its not our fault. the water took forever to boil..... morale of the story.... cook in small quantities.

so here i am at 945pm.... using the net (which we decided we would pay for since there is nothing to do and its like a ghost town outside).... i am left with 22mins of usage for today, until its her turn to use.... damn it. australia is too laidback.... i need some ACTIONNNNNN. or maybe its just tasmania cos sydney was fine..... hahhaa

ANDI... dun u wish u were here already??! how is the swine flu situation anyway?? someone update me!

Australia Part 2

Early in the morning 7am we woke up made our way to blue mountains... i think we must be the most unhaps pple... we go to sleep at 10plus pm and wake up at 7am to tour. hahaha. Blue mountains really quite nice.... we were walking along the trails and then i told van "eh does this remind u of the trail we did in Indo... when we went to the hot springs to cook the egg" den she said.... "ya. i thought about it just now. and all i can hear is Ak saying gan pua tiring..." hahaha funny ass shit.

we could have taken a 10Aud tram up one of the slopes.... but we decided to walk to the other attractions instead.... and on the way we kept seeing pple walk the opp way... den when we reached the other side, we realised the steps we had to climb up was 900plus steps. WE. NEARLY. DIED. my legs have NEVER felt so tired in my LIFE i swear. im gonna have calves and butts of steal after this trip.

aye. tiring like mad. and we are way overbudget cos we didnt know sydney is so ex. ma de. hopefully the rest of the place is not as ex......

gonna go to the fish market and bondi tmr before heading off to tasmania!! :))

Australia Part 1

So i am finally in Sydney, after what felt like hell.

Met Van at the airport at 7am for our 9am flight... realised we were super early. I shud stop being kan jiong. Slept on the plane mostly... only catched one film and Little Britain... little britain is crazyass funny. i shud go home and dl all the pass episodes. Reached Perth. but the plane doors didnt open... waited waited waited and realised one guy from our plane was being tested for Swine Flu.... gasp. so all the rest had to wait in the plane until he was cleared... waited for over an hour inside the plane and started to panic that we wouldnt be able to catch our connecting flight to Sydney.

Finally he was cleared and we ran to the customs... only to see the incredible snaking lines.... i hate australia already. why cant everywhere be as efficient as Singapore. whats the point of have 10 counters when only 2 are being manned. Seriously. the driver also took 100million years to drive us to the domestic terminal and we ultimately really missed our 415pm flight. Thankfully (or not) we were automatically booked for the midnite (!!) flight... thanks. what the hell are we supposed to do for 8 hours in an airport.... so i called huilin to come pick us up and bring us for dinner. (i was supposed to only meet her when i go perth during my last leg of the trip. thank god she stays there otherwise we would really have to rot for 8hours).

We hung out at Curtin Uni (which is infested with asians) while she had to finish up her project with a fren. Walking in the huge fields, suddenly felt nostalgic about my grad trip to indo... cant believe it has been a year. Den i felt super depressed and actually wanted to go home. Really very sad. After her project meeting, Huilin took us to a great restaurant for pasta. Huge portions and really damn delicious. After dinner, she brought us to the airport to catch our connecting flight...

The flight was horrible. the seats were cramp. van was lying on me 1/3 of the time so i cant move. my neck was stiff. BAD. and then finally. FINALLY we arrived in Sydney this morning. at 730am. We felt like we havent slept in 100years. Headed straight out after checking in.... walked non stop from 9am to 12pm. During the walk, i was super depressed again.... cos the rest arent here. SIAN. I think van probably wanted to slap me.... but i'm the bigger bitch so she didnt dare try.

But Sydney is really pretty! at least the opera house and harbour bridge area is.... COOL!! We went to Manly beach and den walked somemore..... walk walk walk.... walk until my leg cramp. ok.... van is asking me to go up to our room.... going to eat our strawberries.... going to blue mountains tmr.... australia is really quite ex.... OK BYE BYE.

BYE BYE!

had an AWESOME going away party at waterboi's condo... sippin wine in the jacuzzi, talking and getting wasted at 530pm.... waited for ct and alexis to come at 7plus. had pizza, more wine and more booze. was 10pm before we adjourned to his office in paya lebar (which is like 5mins from my house. rocks). really wanted to go home by then since i havent finished packing.... but alexis and ct wun let me go home. ma de. i seriously thot i was going to get drunk and miss my flight today.

crazy ass karaoke at his office. which didnt look like an office at all. serenaded my son who's still busy cramming stuff into his brain for the exams. aye poor thing.... talked more, drank more, ate more, sang more. MADNESS. thanks guys.

So anyway, it's 630am. waiting for my dad (who is in Tuas right now) to come fetch me to the airport. THanks dad!!! from west to east. u rock.

Will be away 2nd May to 16th May. Dun miss me. To those on WAT. Hopefully the trip goes on. And to ah Thia and Andi..... DRINKS SOON BITCHES.

xoxo

Swine flu

Oh no... Andi just told me the swine flue cases in Aussie shot up from2 suspected cases yesterday to 70 today..... tamade... it better not rise anymore these 2 days if not i will be SOOOOO ANGRY. i rather i go to Australia... then the condition worsens and when i come back home. I GET QUARANTINED!!!! den i no need to go work. muahahhaha. so smart. as long as i dun die.

but seriously. if my trip have to be cancelled because of a world wide pandemic i will be totally flippin' out and cursing all the pigs..... and since when did pig flu become swine flu? why the atas name?? i tot it used to be called pig flu.... seriously. pig say pig la! it like chicken flu becomes bird flu becomes avian flu. MA DE. den might as well call common flu homosapien flu right??

ok shuddap.

TAMADE.... so you know... being constipated is NO JOKE.... u get stomachaches but all u let out is air. and it pisses me off. FUCK THIS SHIT.

and u know what sucks more.... when i am clearing all the leftover mess at work when i am not even the bloody project manager. I AM ONLY ASSISTING by the way... bloody fuckers. it sucks like shit that u have not so nice colleagues who throw their work at you... and of cos you gladly oblige *cursing at the back of your head*. cos i mean what am i to do right? Say no?? you think?? ma de CAO JIBAI. and then when shit happens, all of them are nowhere to be found. bloody david copperfields.

thats not all. when your projects doesnt seem to be moving. it like experincing a whole new level of constipation. fuck man no matter how u push, some projects just WILL NOT BUDGE. IT WOULDNT MOVE!! and it doesnt help that when it finally starts moving... I HAVE TO GO TO BLOODY AUSTRALIA and pass my work to someone else... tamade. i hate to pass my work to my colleague... cos it may end up not being taken care of anyway. fuck man fuck this shit.

no joke. i used to think i can switch off after work. oh god no. wrongggg.... ma de its now past working hours and all i can think about is WORK. how much shit i am going get from my boss on monday when he comes back form norway. lanjiao. and i've so worried i cant go for my course on tuesday and wednesday, which i have been looking forward to since january, cos i have to much work to clear before leaving for australia.... FREAK its grooming course can. how fun is that.

aye... so u think.... retail therapy is going to cure all this right? WRONGGGGG. i just spent 100 bucks on a shirt and another 100 on a belt (bought it for a fren..... no i am not that nice. i just paid for him first) from Raoul cos they are having storewide 20% sale yesterday and today. MA DE i would have whacked that pair of shoes if not for the fact that it cost 200bucks even after discount. its PINK walking shoes eh how cool is that!

but i didnt feel good after that but i dunno what else to do.... i tot i could find some loser frens to go out but seems like i have either:

1. frens who are still studying who are having exams.
2. frens who have finished exams but have no money to go out
3. working frens whom i have just seen past 2 weeks so doesnt make sense to ask them out again.

So what else can an alcoholic do??? DRINK IN MY AIRCON ROOM, WHINE ABOUT MY SHITTY LIFE IN MY BLOG.... half thinking that a bus should have just knocked me down on my way home cos works sucks like shit. really. its like shit.

ta ma de. i am so afraid of going back to work. i am. i swear. i dunno how to answer my boss. maybe its time to consider teaching... i mean... how hard could it be right? it's just maths.

PS: to those i have spoken to on msn, face to face... or on the phone. if i sounded rude, its because of all of the above. it's not you. hopefully.

back to my martini.

Pre trip jitters

i realised i have 100million things to do before the trip. I've only changed some money, printed out the documents, bought a book for the trip... and thats about it. i havent thought of what clothes to bring... what places to go exactly. DAMMIT. and i am so tired everyday after work i dun wanna think. maybe its time to be spontaneous? maybe. DAMMIT!

speaking about the book. i bought the new memoir from Augusten burroughs!! LOVE HIM! and i LOVE HIS BOOKS! actually its the memoir about his father and its the only non-funny book he has written. i have all of his books and its crazy as hell.... its not.... laugh out loud kinda funny. its smart. witty. and super sarcastic. LIKE ME! hahaha. His autobiography is my all time favourite book cos it's basically my life. go read it... its called DRY. hilarious and heartwrenchingly sad in the end.

cant wait to savour my book and block out all thoughts... :))))))
also cant wait for next wed. :))))))
YAY ITS THE WEEKEND!
