Next year 2008 is gonna be a busy year for me. I foresee that I have to start being busy starting NOW cos there are lotsa things waiting to be done.

Shopping again

Today I went shopping with my aunt again. I didnt feel like teaching so I cancelled all my classes and went out shopping at bugis. My aunt went on a shopping spree and bought 2 pairs of Hush Puppies shoes @ OG. Wanted to go to 2 fortune tellers but both were busy and didnt have a slot. So we went to Paya Lebar for more shopping. After that, we went to Kovan for more shopping till we made it back home at 8plus.

And my cramps are back and its my time of the month again. That is why I have been feeling so tired and grumpy and irritated and moody and having my terrible backaches......

Think Junior has PMS syndrome too.... he's very tired and grumpy too..... hahahahaha.....

There are some things in life that should thrill people when it happens, but not to some people. And I understand perfectly why they weren't too thrilled. And I dun blame them. But I tot that as long as I am happy, it should matter a lot to them.

Its ok. It will pass very soon....

Christmas @ Bradel

Now for the christmas party @ Bradel....

I was aiming the turkey ever since I laid my eyes on it. I helped mum to prepare part of the food since morn and I had been eyeing the turkey since then.

Why? Cos the turkey is huge......






I like the last picture - as wat Lena said, we are a happy family. Kenji showed his fatherly skills while carrying Shakira and amazingly, she didnt cry. I guess Kenji would be very good with his daughters and he really have that fatherly figure lor....

Junior saved my life today

I have heard of stories where the human's best friend saved their lives and of how the human's best friend have had premonitions of things that were going to happen.

Today I experienced it myself.

I always have the habit to do aromatherapy in my room. Today as usual I lit the aroma-burner, except today I used a candle with 2 extra wicks (cos the last one still had wax left so I put them all together).

Well. Bad Move.

The candle with 3 wicks started to burn themselves up. And the fire seemed to have a life of their own cos they were burning with the wax, not the wick....

Photobucket
The flames started from this candle inside - you can see it was burning FROM the wax..... the whole candle was on fire.....

FIRE
Can see the flames trying to get out?

I was lying down when juniors started barking. I tot it was one of his usual barks when I realised it wasn't. If he was barking at passerbys, it would be continuous barking. If he communicated with other dogs it would be bark, stop, bark bark bark, stop.

Today he barked, stop, stop, bark, stop stop, barked..... as if he was sounding an alarm.

I looked up and saw the thing burning. I tried to blow away the flame but instead of putting it out, the flame caught onto the aroma-oil in the dish as well. GREAT. I have 2 fires to deal with now. I tried to use the flower spray on the fire but it rebuted with a nasty hiss and threatened to burn OUT of the aroma-burner.....

Photobucket
See the flame went up to the aroma oil as well....

So I went to get a huge pail of water.

I dumped the fire-starter - the candle into the pail. It put up a great fight which I tot I lost cos it gave out a huge fire-ball bigger than my head (I wasnt expecting that seriously, I was quite shocked) and then luckily it died.

Now's the tricky part. How to get rid of the aroma-burner that is filled with aroma oil in it?

Just as I was thinking of a way, the flame gave itself up, most probably due to the lack of support from the ferocious fire-starting candle. So I saved some of the very expensive oil (2 bottles of 5 litres oil with a burner cost me $1.2k ok - I was stupid to buy ma heehee).

So Junior saved my life today. He is my hero and he will always be my hero. Who says dogs are not good? Dogs are the best!!! And moreover, he is my son!!!! I LOVE YOU JUNIOR....

19 dec D&D @ Meritus Mandarin Hotel in Orchard

Been partying and eating and enjoying myself for the past week. Totally forgot I still had a blog.... I LOVE CHRISTMAS cos the spirit of peace, love and joy is in the air and I always feel happier when christmas comes......

I put on 3kgs and I have a growing tummy since 3rd dec. I wished it was a baby growing inside me but unfortunately it is jus fats growing around my tummy.

Well, we shall start my fun from last week where we had our company D&D @ Meritus Mandarin Hotel in Orchard. Theme was hollywood nite and I tot it would be fun to dress up as a hollywood character since they gave the go-ahead. So boring to wear gowns and stuff like tat and act prim and proper the whole damn nite rite..... so being the monkey ME, I decided to go as Lara Croft from The Tomb Raider. So cool to go D&D in short shorts and boots and bring guns.... when in your life can you ever carry guns walking around and "shoot" people?

But I think I really look like tomb raider. Cos in the car park an old man didnt wan to get into the same lift as me...... maybe he thinks he'll have a heart attack cos I'm hot???? oooooo......

And when the lift door opened, everyone at the reception dropped their jaws RITE TO THE FLOOR. I heard whispers of WHO IS SHE???????????

I so paiseh that I quickly went to the only colleague who would talk to me cos she's my batch mate. But after a drink, I warmed up and gladly posed with the people who wanted to take pictures with LALA croft..... hahahahahahaha......
