I am in love with my Macbook !

I am in love with my Macbook ! 

FINALLY , all of you will not receive virus messages from me . I recently did a system update and phew ~ ... all the virus are gone ! Anyway , just keep me updated if you still receive any from me after seeing this blog post ... 

My Professional Practice Three project was a success , we manage to do it within 6 seconds ! Finally my friday is free ! For this module , currently left editing of reports , doing powerpoint slides and presentation and I am finally freeeee ... Evan and Nicole came to watch my group , I am so happy . Evan stayed with me for the whole Tuesday , she witness how Z is liked . I am not lying ...  

I had become a irritating person , I emailed my group mates , 2 times on thursday , 3 times on Friday and 1 time today . I completed the report and send it to them . Then suggest about how we should do the powerpoint , then split the parts and get them to choose their parts . And then , update them with the final allocation of parts . In the process of doing this , I felt like I am an irritating aunty ... grrr ... PP3 please end quicky  ... I don't want to be Aunty ... 

As usual , today is my cleaning day and my beauty regime day , nothing special anyway . 

Yesterday , I woke up early in the morning to go for my materials test . I was intending to go home to sleep . Nicole asked me out for breakfast since we hardly be up so early . Tried Hungry Jack's breakfast , it was super nice ! Then I reached home at 11.30 . Reading the email from my group members and emailed them again . Then meet Evan at 12 pm . 

I brought her to Smith Street to do some shopping . We went to factory outlet like Adidas and Nike from 12.30 pm till 4.30 pm . Her total damage is $140 , as for me ... its just $2 . Shall not elaborate on what I bought . Miss Evan ! Don't say it out . 

Then I meet Nicole for dinner , she bought me to a new shop to have clay pot rice . Then we head to watch Night at the Museum II . Super hilarious ! They still have Dumb Dumb , do you have Gum Gum and also new one like The Thinker : I'm thinking ... I'm thinking ... I'm thinking ... I'm thinking ... the monkeys too , very cute when they slap Larry . The Pharaoh too , when they asked him why is he dressed in a skirt , then he emphasis that it is a tulip , see he emphasis till I remembered such small detail . Of course , there are lots more to laugh about

Though the movie is two hours , I still can't get enough of it ! I am glad I did watched this ! I felt so energetic after watching the movie even though I had only 5 hours of sleep the night before .
 
Currently , I am waiting for Nicole to reach the city so that I can have my dinner as soon as possible .

Usuals ...

Usuals ...

Today , I begin the day with the usuals : housework + beauty regime . I seriously have no idea when is it going to end with the housework . I often wish that Mr Dad is rich enough to hire someone to clean my room and wash my clothes for me . I guess that won't happen uh ? Maybe some random fairy heard that and grant my wish ... 

Yesterday , I was in a gloating mood . I snapped at Z , my group mate . I guess I really was at my wits . He sounded sarcastic asking what I was doing and I was under stress . So I wasn't nice when I replied him. I was typing our group report and he stood behind me reading away . I could have snap at him again .  Next he irritated me by asking why this group mate did not come , I am clearly on my controlled state talking to him . Because he does that to me all the time , he thought I would be my usual me , keeping quiet ... I guess maybe I had enough .

After several snaps at him , he finally got it and helped around . Stop his usual chat and do some work . After two successful run , we decided to call it a day. 

Doing the project really drains me out , often I work from morning to evening . Yesterday was horrible , I even forgotten to eat . I was so tried that I am so tried that I slept without eating . When I woke up , its was dark . I decided to head out for something even though I am not hungry . Ate a little and do some grocery shopping . 

Then Nicole called, we head to crown for cakes , since I am so happy . I used to feel bad for been mean . Yesterday , I was happily gloating away .  

School days were normal ... can't wait to go back home ...

Temptations ...

Temptations ...

There are many temptations in this world . Which are the ones you can resist ? For me , I guess I can resist the temptation of drinking alcohol and smoking . I miss clubbing , every time when I hear those clubbing music , I felt the urge to club  . I am not a fan of alcohol , but when I club , I tend to drink a little so that I am not conscious about the way I move . I makes me more smiley than usual , more at ease . I do miss but I can say NO to that . I can resist the temptation of clubbing ! 

Shopping is one temptation I hardly resist . The only reason I manage to resist its because my conscience took over me . Like yesterday , I wanted to get a pair of Adidas shoes , not those running ones , but those lady shoes by Stella Mc-Something . It had my favorite ribbon and its white in color . When the SA asked about my size , I said 9-10 ? But I tried it on , I realized it was kind of loose , then she said , ' I think its 8 then '. I was so happy , I am size 8 ? Hahas ... Then I tried on size 8 , my toes are a little cramp up . Its is the bEl from the past , I will 100 % get it , a little discomfort is worth it after all its a pair of good looking shoes . Good shoes don't always show up ! ( I am very strict with my selection of stuff , I don't give in to stuff that is different what I like easily ) . Then the bEl angel turned up said , " Buy stuff that you can wear comfortable so that I will not get blister at the end of the day . " Phew ! Luckily I didn't buy , its cold , that's why foot is a little smaller than usual. Saved $120 ...

I was randomly looking at sprees and found a really worth it offer . Buying bags at wholesale price ! Its like so freaky, $XX for a medium size bag with postage . The irritating part was ,  my i-banking key is with me ! And I felt that its worth that and bought it ! Such bag in Bugis could go up $30 . Good that it is small damage .  

Last week , Val intro me to a new facial product . It is for treating the facial problems I had . It helps her and so she recommend to me . Upon hearing , I got excited and went out to buy . Currently , I see some results . Can you imagine ? $XX for a little tube . But seems like its a normal for such strong products . Within one week , there is result, can't wait till after one month to see what's my face is going to be like ? The only side effect I had was skin drying . I had to reduce my application to one per day . The trial moisturizer is also useful , after one application , my face was not that dry anymore . Its a worthy damage . 

Food is something sometimes , I can resist , sometimes I just can't . Today , I went to Victoria Market . I wanted to get frozen food and salmon . End up , I bagged broccoli , lemon , mandarin orange and fried fish and chips .  Total damage : $30 ! On food ? yes ... I did ... 

Summary of Miss Tan's temptations ... she loves shopping and a food-lover and a little occasional clubbing... [ Shout out: I am not party queen ! ] 

Today , I start with my usual regime . Cleaning of house then facial enhancement . Hahas ... I made it sound so nice  . I am glad my face still absorbing the essences of dainty mask . Today , I used aloe vera . Its good for moisturizing and since my face is dry . After applying the mask , my face don't feel dry anymore and tight ! 80 cents mask ! Hahas ... cheap and good ! 

I hope I can finish using my dainty mask because I wanna try the mask my sister bought from Taiwan . Wo De Mei Li Ri Ji . Kind of expensive to buy from spree , they charge $1.30 per piece . Not inclusive postage and handling . My sister bought it at $10 per box or slightly below $10  . One box , there is 10 pieces . I haven't used that because I want to finish using my dainty mask . I have a box of  lavender and apple . I hope to have the full set so that I can change flavor like what I am doing now . Hahas ... me and my indulgences ... 
 
I was tempted to get post a picture of me with my mask since Val asked me to post pictures, but I have kindly not do so , I don't want to scare you people off . 

Currently , I am reading Twilight . Its a good book , I regret not watching the movie because I thought it is a scary movie . It is like Harry Potter books . I seriously didn't expect to find something I like to read after Harry Potter . I thought since , there is no more Harry Potter , my addiction with books will end . Irony ... 

All for today ... else you all will doze off while reading ...

An old song school song ...

An old song school song ... 

Recently ... this song keep popping up into my head ... I give you the lyrics ... I guess that rings a bell ... 

I never had a dream come true 'til the day that I found you 
Even though I pretend that I've moved on you'll always be my baby 
I never found the words to say  (Never found the words to say) 
You're the one I think about each day  (The one I think about each day) 
And I know no matter where life takes me to A part of me will always be with you

Guess its ? ...Yup ... its from S club 7 ; never had a dream come true ... 
Nice song ...

My usuals ...

My usuals ...

Today is finally a Wednesday ! I am so happy about it . Yesterday , after my accounts tutorial class , I packed Hungry Jack's for dinner backed home and pig it out ! I saw my usual favorite television program , two and the half man ( PG  version ) , then  countdown 20 to 1 all time scandal , then two and the half man ( M version ) , then chef Gordon Ramsy with kitchen nightmare and hell's kitchen . 

I had a great TV time ! I had a great rest after two hectic days of studies . Shows here are more open , they used to show Secret diary of a call girl which is a complete No for Singapore TV . Two and the half man is talking about Sex in the leisure yet open manner . But I still missed Singapore television dramas , those familiar artists' faces and cable television with Hong Kong , Korean , Japanese , Taiwan dramas and Taiwan Talk shows .

On Monday , I ended early for my Accounts lecture and head straight to Nicole's house for dinner . She wasn't expecting me to be so early at her house and so she is not ready . She planned to cook finish just when I arrived at her room so that the food would not be cold . She told me to drink the soup first . Its was super nice ! I was eating my usual NOs ; carrots and onions that is in the soup . It was cold outside and the soup made me feel better . I kept drinking and drinking till there si only half pot left moreover the dinner is not ready ! 

I had to stop myself from drinking anymore soup and start pinching on the other food on the table . I felt so guilty about it . Hahas ... and finally she is ready ... Ta Dang ...  


There is luncheon meat , sweet and sour pork , chicken with mu er , vegetables , the carrot and onion soup is on another table , this table is too small . And we started eating . I was so hungry that I ate finish everything . Maybe it is because I didn't had much rice during lunch . Hahas ... I had a good dinner anyway .

After eating , I helped to washed up . Then I watched desperate housewives and head back home . And then I drowned into my deep sleep . 

Today , I did my laundry as per normal . Cooked my lunch and stayed home all day . Just a glance out the window, I just realized that the sky darken , I guess heavy rain is going to pour . Phew ! I am so lucky ... Oh ya , I don't have cough anymore ! :)

All for today ... hope you enjoyed ! Next update will be on Friday onwards ... hope there is something happening I can blogged about else it will just be my normal rambles .

Finally ... its the weekend ...

Finally ... its the weekend ... 

Yesterday morning , I had my Engineering Material's test . I anticipated that it will be tough and I tried to spot the trend and memorize some of the facts . The test was indeed tough and to my dismay , she gave a question out of my anticipation . A question on how Hydrogen causes steel to be less tough . In my head , I only remembered that hydrogen causes steel to be less tough , I did not memorize how and why . I was quite tormented by that question because the entire question was 5 marks and the test is upon 30 marks . I discussed with Nicole and she too did not anticipated that,instead we both memorize the facts about fibers and resin . Gosh ... hard to read a lady's mind , harder to read a lady lecturer's mind .   

After the test , I was very sleepy but I had to go for my project meeting . In wasn't fruitful because we had asked the lab tech to help us with the spacer but he wasn't in the lab . We couldn't do anything so we decided to split some work among ourselves to be done at home . But the question I had in mind was , ' Did everyone seriously have something to do ? '  . 

Once I reached home , I feel like going to Brouke street to get a facial product recommended by Val . But I felt so tired and I had to give up on the idea . Mainly because I studied till 1 am and woke 6 the next morning to prepare for the test again . Actually , when I wake up , I did not manage to cramp much into my head . I made myself good breakfast , bath and even dried my hair .

Then I collasp onto my bed  . When I wake up , I realized my room is very very dark , I got scare and reach for my clock . Those when you touched it , it will light up and I realized it was 6 ! I had slept for 5 hours ! Its horrible !  I quickly switched on my room light and message Nicole if she wants dinner . Luckily , she was at the school doing her quiz and had not eaten . 

We met up at my hostel and went to Lygon for creamy mushroom pasta ! Then we shop around big W and Safeway to digest a bit before heading to Churos for spanish donuts as dessert ! Then we head to Coles so that she can get more food . I saw the luncheon meat at Safeway and asked Nicole whether she knows how to cook it . Then she said she knows and describe how she would cook it . And I say , " Ok , if I go to your house for dinner , can you cook it for me and she said ok ! . " Cool , I settled one of my dinner ! 

After dinner , I waited for my family to skype with me . Then my sister ring me . I explained that I had miss a call from her in the afternoon because I was asleep . I told her I slept from 1.30 pm to 6 pm . She was horrified . I asked her to show me the stuff she bought for me from BKK . She show them to me .  

 This is the bag she bought for me . : 


( The picture is not taken by me , I got it from the web site . )

Also , she bought me stuff from that series too , like tissue pouch , comestic case , sunglass case and many others . She got the old marketing bag with a big ribbon from the same series for Mum . I guess I am going to kop that from Mum if she is not using it . Muhahahas ... Real sis also bought me some other random stuff from pirated Naraya shop and some other random shops .  

The she told me about her experience about while getting this bag for me . She said initially , the shop at Isetan doesn't have it . She was put on the waiting list but the waiting list was long . She and her friend , Stella decided to take a train to another hotel to get it . Since her friend , stella wants to get that for her Mum , then I jumped  ' Her Mum ? That makes my bag so old ' . Then sis super fu yan replied ,' Ya , it is a auntie bag . '' and continue her story about how lucky she was when she got to that hotel , there were two left . 

I asked her about how Bangkok , she said everything is quite peaceful . Naraya is still full of people . The wholesale stuff got ridiculously expensive . Price increased everywhere . The Mos burger there allow you to change your fries to butter prawns . Stupid Sis got me the brochure of Mos burger ...-_-!!! 

My life with enemy Mr Swine Flu , yesterday I went for test and the room was very quiet . Then I started coughing . Then people in the room start coughing . If you imagine the scenario , it will be so hilarious . Everyone is so afraid of coughing because they are afraid of being suspected having swine flu . Its is cold here , thus we tend to cold . My cough is getting better , less frequent than before .  

Today , as usual , I had cleaned my room and washed my clothes . But I did my beauty regime a day earlier because last week was a cold week . My skins starts to dry a little faster . Strangely , this time round , my mask din feel as good as the last time . Never mind about it , I will continue using it and see how it goes . Feel so good to feel that my face is soft and springy ... Hahas ...

Plans for tonight is to start clearing my mountain of homework . I must endure ... 1 month left before my final battle !
