I'm busy with........

Selling Bras (and panties, of course)!!!!


Usually 3 weeks before the Lunar New Year, we have to help out at our stores or counters and this year is no exception. Every year, the days differ. Like last year, I had to work for 2 whole weeks at the Bedok shop including the weekends. For this year, it’s just the weekends - Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays from the 9th of Jan onwards right to the eve. So my last weekend was at Metro Paragon and I was quite bored as there weren’t many customers during the day time. Not as busy as Bedok’s heartland crowd where everyone is dying for your attention!!!

I’m so not looking forward for the next 2 weekends. *SIGH*

Well, well….. Just have to get it over and done with! Meanwhile, I should indulge myself with lots of retail therapy! Hahaha! Shop shop shop!!!!

We were invited to Dulcy’s love nest for her house-warming party on the 1st Saturday of 2009! Here are some pics!



Corine and Simon were the 1st to arrive!
Surprising Wenn was quite early too!!! Hahahaha!

Dulcy's Ikea Xmas tree!
The top looked slightly bare though....


Our gift to them!
I had spent the entire morning planning and making this "house" envelope!
I like the result!

Dulcy suggested we should all mark our cups so we will not replace them over and over again.... Good way to save some cups!
Nana even went to the extend to mark the wine glasses with tapes and name written over it.
Hahahaha.....
Guess whose hand is this!
As I was trying to take a picture of all the food, Shiying reached out for her drink at the same time! Hahhaha!

My beloved PC Girls!
Happy Bellies!

The Ikea cake tray is very pretty lor!
Prefect for holding pretty cuppies like these!
I am so wanting one for myself too!
Cuppies from Coffee Bean!
Dunno what was Simon talking about....
He was like so excited!

Vintage cabinet!
This 40 year-old cabinet was from Ka Chong's house before they moved it to their love nest! Very nice! But I told Dulcy that the iron in the middle is quite an eye-sore lah!
Huhuhu....


Dulcy wants us to be considerate to each other.
Heehee....

Very effective and cost-effient way to keep your stuff!
Dulcy kept some of her clothes and other stuffs in these wine cases!
Her hubs, Ka Chong, works in a wine place so he got these for free!
Good right!!!!

I took a proper pic as keepsake!


Inside of the card!

Cupcakes time!


I pretend to pick my nose when I saw Boo's still snapping away!
Hahaha!
Nana, taking a pic of her cupcake with her iphone.


Did I mention that she just got engaged?!?! Huhuhu....


The boys were left to entertain themselves!
wahaha!
Boo as usual, cannot take his hands of his DS!



Sunday with Boo


Asked Boo to pose and he did this.
Irritating lei!

I think he was mimicking me!
Act cute! Hahahaha!!!


The new outdoor tables are nice but it can be quite a nuisance if things started dropping thru the gaps! The gaps where quite big lah, I can imagine bits of cakes dropping thru the gaps! Wahahah!


Me enjoying the classique chocolat cake and lime tea!
Yummy!!!

Boo didn't feel very well so I almost finish the whole slice of cake to myself!

No wonder now I so fat!

The lime tea was goooood! I ordered it because it was good for colds and I wanted to force Boo to drink it!

Boo's calling the restaurant to check if we could leave the cake in the fridge.

We had like 2 hours to kill before our appointment!

The cake couldn't be out for more than 45 mins!

This is where we'll be celebrating Boo's mum's birthday later!
Hokkien food!


The weather was just nice for photos!


Wah! So many aircons!

It is so not environmentally-friendly lor!
1 shophouse need so many split systems can you imagine how many there are in the whole area?! Oh my goodness!

Boo as Mr Fei Yu Qing....
We walked down this mini park at Ann Siang Hill.

Felt a little wierd cos the end leads the the back of the shophouses on Amoy St.


We were strolling at the perimeters of Far East Square and we spotted a museum.
The Fuk Tak Chi museum is free for everyone to go see!

I like this big model of a junk.

Hope my 2009 will be as soon sailing as the message!


Rediffusion box.
My mum used to have 1 at my old place and she would listen to it everyday.
Boo's no stranger to this, he used to do recordings for Rediffusion from a very young age.
We were saying that maybe I have heard him before when we were young.

huhu....



"huh"?!


We were walking along China Square and saw Don's Pie and Boo was hungry, so we went across the street in search of some nice in-between snacks.
It was like 30 mins away from meeting his family for dinner and he finally cannot tahan his hunger pangs and bought a pie to eat!


"Wahhhhhhh........"
Boo's exaggerated expression again! Hahaha!


Boo's really to attack!!!


Look at the thick mashed potato covering the pie....
It was really very delicious but rather oily.
At $5.40 for a pie, I think it's a little too pricey for that size.

But it was very delicious lah.
Do try!

Another Year came....

Happy New Year everyone!
There seems to be alot of plans for 2009. I really hoped it will be a good year for me. Looking back, last year has been smooth-sailing for me in terms of work, relationships and health despite a really, really bad start. However, the problems haven't been solved. Yah. My brother is still jobless, bumming and living off me.
I have to plan my escape route.
Run.
As fast as I can.
Holding my mum close to me.
Sigh........
Nevertheless! I will keep my spirits up! It's just the start of the year!
There are still 363 days to go!
Here's wishing all of you
A GREAT year ahead!
All the best in whatever you do!
