After being posted to HQ and started working on the new system for a week, I think the consultant we hired is from Dilbert’s company. GRRRR.

We went to the Singapore Philatelic Museum and they were having a Christmas Day Open House! That means the entrance is free! I love museums! It’s not just about stamps but it also features the history of Singapore and postal services around the world! It’s a colourful place and I had a lot of fun!

You know you’re the Queen when you appear on a stamp.

If you missed the Christmas Day Open House, they’ve got a New Year’s Day Open House coming up too!

Here’s a list of my top 3 Christmas presents received this year!

A “Polaroid” camera! Technically, it’s called a FujiFilm Instax 200 but that’s so geeky.

My practical and geeky boyfriend who believes in Photoshop and digital imaging bought me an instant camera! How awesome is that?! It’s almost unbelievable! I love it!

The camera is so huge I can use it to whack any perverts and send him to La La Land! HAHA. He chose this model instead of Instax Mini because the photo quality is supposed to be better and he loves the wide film size instead of the card size photos! I love it! How many times did I say I love it?? I can finally start clicking around and surprise myself whenever the images appear in the blank card. It’s almost like magic! My new hobby will probably burn a hole in my pocket especially when every click is a dollar sixty five. OH MY!

An Account Receivable – Burberry Bag – from my sister! She drew this for me and I am praying hard my account receivable will not turn into a bad debt waiting to be written off. HAHA. I love you sister! I will surely miss your craziness and randomness when you’re away in Sweden!

A little present from Myself! A Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett.

Penguin published a collection of popular classics in a no-frill format made from 100% recycled material sold at $4.90 available at Borders Bookstore. Other recognizable titles such as Little Women, Sherlock Homes, Dracula and Happy Prince are also available at $4.90! I am giving Penguin 2 thumbs up for being environmental and pocket friendly!

Merry Christmas to all my friends and readers out there! May this New Year be filled with lots of blessing, love, joy and health!

Watched the Gala Premiere of Alvin & the Chipmunks 2 yesterday all thanks to the free tickets from my company!

The storyline was mediocre but the Chipmunks and Chipettes were way too adorable! I was given four tickets and my sister’s friend Marcus came with us too!

Just got home from Christmas shopping. Busted close to $250 in a 3 hours shopping spree and I’m just 80% done. HMPH. Thankfully I’m on half day leave tomorrow! It’s almost Christmas!

Yesterday was Dongzhi Festival (or Winter Solstice Festival) a festival traditionally celebrated by Chinese. During Dongzhi Festival, families come together to make and eat Tangyuan (or glutinous rice balls) which symbolize reunion. So being Chinese, I had my share of Tangyuan too!

His colleague just came back from France with Brie at 1.79 Euro and Wine at 5 Euro! OMG! Anyone going France soon? HAHA.

  • I hate waking up at 6 to reach work at 830. In response to my rant, CW welcomed me to the reality. URGH.
  • My favorite mug went MIA. I have a feeling my maid broke my mug but she claimed she has never seen it before. GRRR. She thinks it’s a symptom of me experiencing overactive imagination disorder.
