Enough of the wedding and honeymoon posts, I just saw the corporate video I short for our company relating to corporate social responsibility and yes, I do look like I put on 5 kg especially when it shows my double CHIN! OH MY GOSH! Can someone tell me how to get rid of that? I don’t care if it symbolizes wealth, urgh.

I am not linking the web link of the video to protect my privacy and chin! HAHA

Urgh. Cramp on a light fixing day can be quite a chore.

After my wisdom tooth extraction, I am perpetually hungry. I can’t wait to eat a cow but my gum hurts like crazy. I think this is like a force-slimming-program for me.

// Researching about fennel, artichoke and cabbage for work is not helping. URGH.

I did my root canal yesterday. Painful! Next week I’m going for my wisdom tooth extraction then another 3 sessions of root canal treatment. GOSH.

I just got an incredulous bad news about my uncle. It makes my daily worries seem so trivial. Sigh.

Fell ill since a while back but it got worst last few days when I lost my voice. Sigh. I realized that when I fell sick I became all weak and princessy and I’m really pushing his limits. I guess when I’m at home my maid and granny will pamper me and tolerate all my nonsense. I’m not saying he doesn’t pamper me, he does but I got to learn to appreciate him while being ill which I often take it for granted at home. BAH. I have a fear, imagine me getting all pregnant and grumpy? I can foresee a lot of frustration.

On a happier note he was really loving in making me breakfast this morning!


Sorry for the lack of post! Just got back from Church Camp at Batam yesterday and today I’m on MC! Jason brought the flu to camp and he is patient 0! Having fever, sore throat and body ache now! BOO.

This month went pass too quickly!

I stumbled upon Laura Ashley store at Great World City yesterday and fell in love with their stuffs! It is all so pretty and I spent forty five minutes walking around the tiny store just looking around. Their staffs must have thought I am crazy. This must be the reason for their cold service provided.

I love the book ends but it cost over a hundred bucks!

Even though their store has many pretty things, their service standard is disappointing. Of all the five staffs I encountered, there are only two young ladies who care enough to provide good service. The first one replied, “All sales items are on our selling area” and walked away when I asked if there are any other pieces of a particular item. When I proceeded to ask the staff at the sales bazaar they held at the atrium, the young guy said under his breathe to his colleague, “It is for birds, how clean she wants it to be.” The third lady, the kind one was the one who helped me find one which has less glue stain. The forth lady at the cashier counter bluntly replied “There is no box for this item” when I asked for one. The last lady at the cashier counter appeared apologetic when they do not have a decent paper bag and ended up giving me a bulky looking plastic bag.

What is happening to the service standards in the retail industry? Or is it because the atas store only serves expats and Caucasians with a smile? I’m flabbergasted. I am a certified service professional (I’m not joking) and cliché as it may sound, I believe service must come from the heart and service staffs should really learn to empathize with their customer.

Anyway, on a brighter note, I bought a bird feeder! HAHA. It is a little pricy even after discount and I thought he will be mad at me for spending on random stuff, but even he thinks it’s cute! HEH. I’m going to use it as wedding décor and hang it on my balcony after my wedding! This explains why I wanted a box – to protect it for the next ten months! DUH.

I am surfing the web to find inspiration for our future loft and I’ve decided to look at how Singaporean renovate their new place. All I can find is the Singaporean House look. If you know what I mean, standard TV console, boring sofas, black and white furnitures. The place simply lacks character.

Does anyone know of any inspiring renovation / decor blogs?

P.S. I have an idea of what I want for my place but what I fear is the poor execution of the idea. BAH.




I hate being stuck in a massive jam in the cab. It’s not the rate the meter is jumping. It’s the fact that it’s making me sick! I feel like puking and wish I can teleport home now! Bah.
