三十分钟 to 放工时间

略觉无聊,所以决定写个华语版的部落阁来消磨时间。

今天真无聊,其实天天都蛮无聊。。 不够东西做,我今天都忙着上网找寻一些装修屋子的资料。找着,找着,时间就这么过去了。

因为 walk-in wardrobe 不会有冷气机,我想装个 ceiling fan。看了 KDK 的网站,才发现新一代的 ceiling fan 已经不像十几年前的那种。Ceiling fan 竟然有LCD遥控器, 几先进一下哦!装修屋子虽然很好玩,但也很累。。 可是想到自己设计的概念会将一一实现,就很兴奋!动力也就来了。忽然觉得自己很像 auntie, 因为我也在研究马桶和水盆。哈哈哈。。。下次你们要买的时候,记得来问我,我可以提供一些意见呢!

刚刚收到个坏消息,我的 floor contractor 告诉我们,客厅的 tiled-platform 没被批准。。只可以做 wooden-platform, 可是因为我的主题是 Modern Lush 所以 wooden-platform 不符合主题。可能就不做 platform 了。或者照做,可是用 carpet 来盖掉木的部分。真扫兴!

时间到,收工!

Flea market anyone?


Flea Market at the Scape (Youth Park) this sat.
Took this pic last week when I went to paid for the stall.
It was small crowd.. more ppl browsing than buying.
So not really looking forward to it.. Jo is sick somemore.. duno whether we can carry on the stall as per planned. If only someone would take over the stall from me.... :P
Somemore need to meet my floor contractor this weekend.. if all goes well, should be able to start the reno le. So far, the quotes are from 6.9K to 8.1K - for the floor + false ceiling + hacking of one wall lor.. Really ex to own a house man! I'm doing homo for most of the areas covered.. except for the kitchen and toilet tiles whereby HDB has already done up for us. Now also sourcing for aircon.. might not be getting an inverter since we wun be using it so much.

Before we do up the kitchen cabinet, have to get the measurements of our fridge first.. We already decided to get the white colored fridge from Fisher and Paykel.. Ex (abt 1.1K), but it looks good and moreover, its energy saving.

As for TV, most probably its either Samsung or Sony Bravia. All the "S".. we are getting 'Sealy Posturepedic" for the mattress. It's damn comfy.. last weekend, we went to Robinsons to try the Omazz mattress, wow.. you really will feel the "dwhine-dwhine" in the latex mattress! But it costs 5K per mattress! If only we strike 4D, toto, big sweep.. watever!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yah, the time now is 3.03pm on a Thurs afternoon, so what am i doing here instead of working? Hahaha.. im really quite free lor! Jo's on MC today.. nobody for me to po-lo-so.. somemore, raw's on reservist.. nobody for me to disturb. Work's done.. left a bit of filing which is the last thing that I wana do now. Maybe I should pick up a new hobby like reading online novels etc.. to keep myself entertained till 6pm..

Meeting Zann and Yb tonight.. wana go visit Zann's bb and pass her the gifts.. so excited! I always like to "play" with other ppl's bb.. but like what I always say, 1-2 hours of playing is really very enough for me, so dun ask me to have my own babies ... ><"
I'm contented with just having dogs for companionship!

Oh, talking about Dogs.. I came across this really nice poster for an upcoming poster (it's my MSN display pic currently)
So cute right?!
Just a short description of the movie "10 Promises To My Dog" (adapted from Yahoo Movies):
"12-year old Akari fell in love with a puppy that had wandered into her house and adopted it. She names it "Socks" as its' paws looked like they had white socks on. The girl and dog are inseparable, and the pet was a great comfort to Akari while grieving her mother's death. However, as Akari grows up, her feelings and interest moves away from Socks. Year by year, their distance grows, which also leads to her physical distance as she moves to a far off city, and must leave Socks behind to a childhood friend. One day Akari remembers the 10 promises that she had made to Socks and her mother..."

Isn't this a oh-so-sweet movie? Moreover, its a Golden Retriever Pup.. *可爱*
I can't wait for it to come this late June.

Save me from this place~

This is really another slow moving day…. To the long weekend ahead.
Can't wait, really can't wait to get off work… Not much to do actually…

lp was on study leave for the past week, and I was supposed to take care of the work while she was away, but given my weak constitution and plus the terrible weather, I fell sick from last Sunday and was on MC for 2 days.. When I came back on Wed, there was just so much to do…
But now, I'm damn free.
Or I should say, I'm feeling damn lazy to even move an inch of my finger - to do work.

I'm in a super relak and holiday mood now.
I spent most of my time after lunch reading Bryan wong's blog .. interesting blog he got there.
I have always thought he is a talented artiste with a unique personality. I enjoyed watching the shows he hosted, from City beat to Home Décor 3… so nice.

I'm recently into Interior Designing mags.. mainly becuz I need more inspirations for my house.
Have chosen the main tiles, tomoro might have to go and choose my platform tiles. Previously, I saw some homogenous tiles which looks exactly like parquet tiles.. thought that's quite nice.. but I think will be ex too!

So many work to do for my house.. electricity, choosing materials for my carpentry, lightings, TVs, aircons, and even down to wash basin and toilet bowls. Sighz… Fun but tiring. And I haven't quite started except for reading ID magazines…

Email just came in… got work to do le.. till next time!

The men just don't get it!

Hooray.. another dream come true!

Haha.. the men just don't get it! This has been my dream card since years ago when it first came out. It's never too late to get it right?! :P They came out with the platinum (which will take me at least 3 or more years to qualify), but I still prefer this classic design. I also received my Citibank Tang's card, which will enable me to have a 10% rebate whenever I spend more than $10 at Tangs. It's nice too.. but i'm surprised that you dun need to earn more than $50,000 to have a Citibank Platinum card, which sets it apart from other banks. I guess more youngsters (like me) will sign up with them to fulfil this little vanity on our part.. Ha.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I think I really need a break.. been falling sick and my flu so bad, the skin around my nose is torn due to excessive rubbing and irritation. It must have been the hot hot and hotter weather recently. A phenomenon caused by Human to Earth, and it's back to haunt us - Global Warming! I feel so upset when I heard that 9 ppl has been killed by the heat in Bangladesh.. Wonder when it will hit the rest of the world. When its hot, we must turn on the aircon so we will not suffer from the intense heat, but each minute when we turn on the aircon ,the earth is slowly suffering from it. It's more like a "Chicken or Egg theory", makes me wonder if we can even withstand this heat to see the earth gets better (if it can ever get any better). My body's been so heated up, I get pimples on my face and ulcers in my mouth. Every little thing irritates me.. I just hate being trapped in this big desert! Let it rain tonight please.........
