Nowadays kept doing my personal things in the office, take for example, recording what I’ve been eating everyday, planning my workout schedule, looking for holiday destinations etc..

My weight still remains stagnant. I’m still eating sinful stuff all these while, especially during weekends where my appetite actually doubled! I think it’s a waste of my money & time at PF! Left only like about 3 more months to go.

~+~+~+~+~+

Did I mention that I received my ON loots already? So happy! Everything fits to a T. Except one which is rather loose, and makes me look rather flabby. I’m still waiting patiently for my TW auctions loots.. it has been more than one month already. I hope everything goes well.

~+~+~+~+~+

Sunday afternoon, met up with Der & went to fish prawns at Lakeside. Actually I had wanted to go to cycle but he said his attire doesn’t suit so we opt that out. In the end, I was rather bored coz I only caught 3 prawns for the day. And he caught 10 prawns. Badly demoralized. Haha.







After which, went for dinner at the hawker center near urong Blk 500+ there and ate Dried Yong Tau Foo. It was good. Now grown to like to eat Yong Tau Foo but probably need to eat in soup is healthier for me. Then I brought all the prawns home, steamed and ate all up with my Mum. Dunno how my cholesterol level now..

~+~+~+~+~+

Yesterday initially wanted to go to PF but decided against it coz of my tummyache. Probably because of all the junk I ate during the weekends. Since Mum and Sis wanted to order Sakae, so I helped to place orders. Each of us has a Bento set



Sophia's & Samantha's Teriyaki Bento Set


Sis' Soft Shell Crepe Bento Set


Mum's Grilled Salmon Bento Set


And mine's Cha Soba with Sushi & Sashimi Bento Set

In addition we ordered Fried Hotate & Soft Shell Crab. In the end, I think if we had eaten at the outlet itself, it will taste much better. The tempura, soft shell crab and other fried stuff are not so nice, only the sashimi still taste fresh. Total damage comes up to $70.50

~+~+~+~+~+

I forgot to mention that I went for my complimentary facial at Body Wellness near Orchard last month. Remember I was still coughing hard during the entire session. I think it was called Diamond Sparkling Treatment. Firstly, the beautician cleaned my face then she used a tool to zap all the dead skin cells from my face. Then I had 2 masks. One was sheet mask and the other was something she applied onto my face. And she gave me a shoulder massage. It was really refreshing and comfortable. After that, the sales consultant psycho me into buying their package, and of course, I did not succumb to the temptation.

I have 2 more complimentary facials I got from the bridal mags that my company advertised.

Dead beat.

Work up at 745 and found myself rather late as usual. Couldn't find suitable clothes to wear. And i really ended up 2 min late in office. Bored. Couldn't wait for time to pass quickly as i'm meeting PL for the Ettusais Make-up Workshop at SMU.

Finally reached the place after getting bit lost. But it was all worth it. Learned quite a lot on skincare problems and make-up tips! Got a complimentary T-zone mask demo and a manicure (though the manicure doesn't turn out nice). Same goes for PL. Quite disappointing. Got a $10 voucher from this workshop so we went to buy their new range of blusher, it's unique as it comes with a puff for $19 (after the voucher). Also got a goodie bag (worth of $50?)... which contains: My Paper, 3 samples of some skincare products, hair perfume, topshop bag, small pillow, notebook.. Oh and i almost forgot, the refreshments! I only like the otah (with mackarel fish), and the chocolate fountain! So heavenly!

After that, went to Plaza Singapura - John Little, The Face Shop, Charles & Keith etc to shop before heading back home. Just before my stop, PL mentioned she wanted to eat the Satay Bee Hoon @ Bukit Timah Market. It brought up my hunger pangs.. wanted to eat the Fried Carrot Cake initially. But my willpower got the better of me. Ate the plain vermicelli soup with fishballs. And no Satay Bee Hoon, PL got a plate of Fried Carrot Cake! After that we down the food off with my favourite Soya Milk! Damn shiok!

~+~+~+~+~+~+~

Last Sunday, met up with Der before heading to Sobasei @ Fairway Club. Didn't know it was so expensive. So we ended up getting the cheapest items on the menu!


My Curry Soba - $14+


His Cha Soba - $10+


My Chawanmushi - Damn expensive.. $8+




Yum!

~+~+~+~+~+~+~

Met up J rather late on Thursday, and we went to Kbox as they are having promotion. Ladies night = Waiver of cover charge for 1 drink ordered. As i need to catch the last bus home, so the session has to end early. Though the session was short, but i enjoyed myself. Hope can sing longer next time though.

~+~+~+~+~+~+~

Followed my exercise plan religiously. Four times a week. Still hanging on. But i can't control my eating habits. Still eat a lot and ate sinful stuff.. Just like to ask.. are fishballs fattening? Coz i love them and i eat them few times a week. If anyone knows, please let me know. Thanks.

Gotta oink oink now.. can't take it anymore... And yes, i badly need a shoulder massage! If anyone wants to volunteer, i will gladly welcome with open arms!

Saturday, met up with unimates to Waraku Restaurant @ Marina Square

Later on, met up with PL and J to catch fireworks.. the way from Marina Square was terrible as everyone was walking in the opposite direction as me, as i walked over to Cityhall.. Finally caught the fireworks nearby Cityhall.. sad thing is some fireworks cannot be seen..











Then we headed to MOS after a bit of hesitation..



The lights can change colors… very beautiful..









Too dark.. :p

Finally got the time to surf the Net. I'm so deprived of web-surfing nowadays, owing to the little amount of time i'm having in a day.. nah.. it's not because of work.. it 's because of i'm been going to PF often nowadays.. suddenly got awaken by the ideas -1) that i'm not making any progress, and 2) i shouldn't waste my hard-earned $$

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'm getting more and more annoyed by the fact that why some people do not like to reply sms-es. It's so irritating. I'm talking about like i'm asking them a question, and i expect them to revert.. not a statement. And i didn't even get a respond. Oh well.. maybe i'm not a people-person, people just hate to reply me. It doesn't pay to be kind. And I hate being the organiser. Period.

Will see how the turn-out is tomorrow. =(

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Met PL for bit of shopping at Vivo City. However PL didn't bought anything, while i bought a pair of pants at FOX. Only $26. More than 50% off.. Love it to bits. Last Saturday, bought a dress from Nichii at it was at 20% off.. but i think that was an impulsive buy.. coz i seldom wear dresses =(

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hohoho.. signed up for an Ettusais make-up workshop for next Sat. It sounds good. With only $35 registration fee, you get $50 worth of Ettusais products and a $10 voucher.. However, i'm not interested in the skincare products rather than the make-up products.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Work sometimes gets me down. Today Boss told me to suddenly cancel a promotion which we have all agreed upon sometime back already. Got a nervous-wreck as i know that it is irrevesible as it has already been sent to print. Then after a while, he came and said, "Charis, it's okie, Mr XXXX have explained to me.. i've forgotten.. sorry." Phew.. I forgave him, as old people tends to forget things easily, despite all the blood gushing like mad earlier on.. kekeke.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Watched few DVDs for the past weeks:

Just Follow Law (Fann Wong & Gurmit Singh) - Thought it was interesting show after being raved by some people, especially my colleagues. Found it nothing much.. kept repeating & emphasizing on the politics among all the govt agencies. Tends to get a bit bored after a while.. Only good thing is i finally see Fann Wong so uncouth.. wahaha.

Mr Bean's Holiday (Rowan Atkinson) - Also raved by some people, but i thought it was quite boring, probably because most of the time, he don't talk..

The Da Vinci Code (Tom Hanks & Audrey Tautou)- Quite boring in the beginning.. don't really like to watch drama show.. but overall nice.. though some parts i don't really understand + i can't finish reading the novel.

Deja Vu (Denzel Washington) - Quite boring in the beginning as well. i love this kinda go back in the past or go to the future kinda shows.. Denzel Washington is really good in the show.

Twins Mission (Twins, Sammo Hung) - Love Twins, that's why rented this movie.. overall quite interesting. Mum loves this kinda shows.

And some other shows which i can't remember already...

oh ya, missed a lot of movies lately.. waiting for DVDs.. Transformers, Harry Potter and the list goes on and on..

Here i am! Finally found the energy to blog. Been sick since i came back from KL on the 23/7. Let me count.. 12 days since i'm back.. and i'm still sick.. coughing.. Been sick (got a kind of pain in my stomach) on the second day of the trip.. must be the honeydew that i had bought in Puduraya bus terminal.. it tastes real funny.. i think fruits will turn stale if it's not placed in the fridge after cutting them.. that time i did not think of that. It must be food poisoning.. didn't get to eat the highly raved 'Mdm Kwan's Nasi Lemak or Bojari'.. in fact did not get to eat anything on day 2 except a plate of 'Penang Char Kway Teow'.. i was feeling lethargic and hungry by the time we finally settled down to makan that.. yum.. it tastes yummy! Then i was down with a slight fever while visiting Chinatown aka Jalan Petaling.. should be due to the crowd.. i hate crowds.. last time i caught flu virus while squeezing / clubbing on a particular new year's eve. Then on the last day, vomitted twice after eating the so called 'Mint-flavoured Mcflurry' in Mac.. it tastes real weird.. no taste of mint.. yucks.. The only good thing is we auto upgraded to Transtar Premium class.. the massager seats are spacious.. with personal TVs.. lots of movies/shows to catch.. gosh i was grateful for that! At least this is the best part of the trip. What's more, in KL was raining every single day... we got caught in the rain everyday. So sick of it. So please remember, don't visit KL in July.. monsoon season.. as what Joyce said. What is supposed to be a relaxed trip turns out to be a horrific experience.. don't think i will go back again, at least for a while..

Did not took a lot of photos, the above explains all.. apologies har.. esp to PL & Joyce..

KLtrip0707


~+~+~+~+~+

On a lighter note.. i received my loots from JE551. Everything fits.. only the sleeve is a bit tight.. time to do something to my arms.. The color also looks a bit out from those on the net.. please refer to my previous posts.. that't the problem with online shopping..

Ordered these from TW auctions..




And Old Navy..
