anyone seen a bag like this selling any where? please sms me if you happen to see lor. looking for this pattern type of bag for chinese new year but i don't have time to go shop anymore. went yahoo online auctions and saw this bag. its from ch*rles and ke*th and pretty nice.

the person is only selling for S$10. but being chinese new year la hor, you know la, more bantang, so must be new new one. the person used a couple of times before.

anyways, any kind soul if you happen to go shopping keep a look out for me and sms me if you do come across on where and how much and i will sprint down to buy le!

blogging at dad's house using ah di's pc. dar is busy lacquering. it started off as compulsory lacquering of the upstairs living room parquet. a follow-up from the previous couple of weeks back labouring on the revamp of the 2nd living room.

and i think he got addicted to it and started lacquering all the wooden things he sees in the house like the wooden pillars in the backyard kitchen, garden chairs and what nots. haha...

regan is busy playing his new sony psp - play station portable, that my dad just got for him. its a freaking near $600 (plus 3 games). *gasp* lucky him!

going for dinner at the palm beach located in one fullerton. haven't been there. hope its not going to be frightfully expensive. we are celebrating ah di's birthday early.

"cal, you must THANK ME lor actually!" hee... because cal can't come over our house so i bet she must be wanting to celebrate ah di's special day with him outside so i push forward our celebrations for him instead. haven't got a cake though i meant to get one from secret receipe.

heard the chocolate banana cake is heavenly. hmmm, maybe monday night i guess?

i've bought my chinese new year's clothes 'seven seven eight eight'. there's 3 days this year. thinking of getting another top. i've got 1 dress, 1 top, 1 suit + inner top, 1 cardigan and 2 pairs of shoes (one for 'kai kai' and one for office). my list is not complete still though.

plus still got regan's and dar's. =P

i'm not normally so enthusiastic about chinese new year. really. this year i wonder what's wrong with me. i hate chinese new year in fact because of all the money i must spend. i'm going all wrong since my christmas spirit went on a holiday and now my chinese new year virus is all acting up.

changed my new notes already somemore. gosh! i'm all raring to 'pai nian' lor. but this year i'm not to go a lot of places. just wanna rest more. =)

anyways, the photos were taken when i went to return some LONG long LONG overdue books. haven't go pay the fine yet. it should be in double digits. *bleahz*

and it was the very first time i saw os*m's i-g*llop. bad bad bad idea. i wonder which idiot in the company thought of it. the machine is freaking laughable. i saw many kids on the machines having fun but the target consumers are definitely not them.

i guess the promoters given up hope on it as they were like standing miles away pretending to be tupperw*re promoters instead. haha... no la, but they just let the kids be. i don't even see their parents anywhere so that the promoters can at least make a sales pitch to the parents to try to sell it.

then i went home and saw the advertisement for the very first time on tv as well. ho ho ho... what a joke!

well, they were trying to be innovative but why galloping? i think the sales chart is going to be a kamikaze straight!

regan has this humongous baluku below his eye. *ouch*

he was running out of a door and his friend, miranda, was running in and *bang* *plop* *wails*...

me : regan, so miranda also got a baluku on her eye ar?
regan : no.
me : huh? hmmm? why you so lousy one? she no baluku then your baluku so big?
dar : then her head got baluku? *grinning*
regan : YA, the baluku on her HEAD!
me : ._." hehehehehe

i was like making fun of him because she's a girl and no baluku and strong and what not thinking 'is she zena the warrior princess?' (just joking la, she's a cute girl!)

then suddenly dar, who knows miranda got a baluku as big as regan's on her head instead as she's shorter than regan ma plus the teacher also told him, pretend to ask him lor.

i'm blogging too much. way too much. i know. hahaha... ai ya, don't complain la hor, more is always better than less right? just like money! =)

anyways, forgot to mention that my dad's house that street is getting famous!

the recent hype about the ntu professor ng*i k*k a*n bry*n lives just right opposite him and oh boy, do i feel like a star when i was going over to dad's place for dinner as usual every evening when hordes of reporters rush up to want to ask about his personal life.

honestly based on my exclusive knowledge on him, he totally deserves it. i shan't say more because ONE, its going to be lengthy, TWO, i don't want to be sued on banking secrecy and THREE, well, i don't like to flame people on my blog.

well, i'm reconvinced on a saying and belief that 'ER YOU ER BAO' lor!

oh yes, another one reason why the street is a little famous is we do get visits from minister lim sw*e s*y. his mon lives here. but he's nice la. hee...

plus songwriter brothers lee s* song and lee w*i song also work closely with someone whom lives a couple of units away. so when they have occasions, they do invite them!

then hor, the very last unit on the street always have people from the tv station using their house as a filming location. but have yet to spot anyone famous milling about.

wa, not bad right. other than the one staying in the unit opposite, whom is smacked right in the middle of a scandal now, i think the feng shui of this street must be pretty steady can!

i had posted the photos at home but not enough time to type what i wanna blog about. now at dad's house using di's pc because dar went to run an errand for dad and i've got nothing to do lor.

but its very hard using his keyboard as its those laptop type of keyboard and though i use a laptop at work, i'm still not typing as fast as i'm using a normal keyboard.

took quite a bit of leave this 2 weeks plus the public holidays, i'm only working like 3 days a week or 3.5 days including the saturdays i'm on duty.

but i've so many things to do so it wasn't very sufficient. and i've got so many things to do that i don't know to start on what first. *sighs*

i need to buy chinese new year clothes for dar, regan and myself (so far i've only gotten a dress for me), springclean my house (nope, nothing started yet), go for a massage (but feel its kinda extravagant given the fact that i'm going to be broke with all the new notes i must change for the red packets), dye my hair (same as per previous reason), use my shopping vouchers that's going to expire real soon, return my library books, pay the fines involve (because i was too lazy to drag myself to return it and the books were in dar's car perpetually so even when i was around the area during my leave, i couldn't return them), source for curtains for my bedroom at home (managed to find a nice set for the living room already albeit it's kinda too short - by 10 inches), celebrate my 6th wedding anniversary (got nothing planned yet), get a gift for my 6th wedding anniversary (since i missed the christmas prezzie, i do intend to TRY to get something for this at least)... think i'll stop here. haa... its getting distressing listing all the stuffs i must do but have yet to do.

i do have time on weekends but i rather spend them with dar and regan and i absolutely do not wish to go to town to jostle with the crowd.

*sighs* oh well, guess i try to do what i can ba.

work has been extremely hectic since the beginning of the new year. last month was really slack but i guess everyone is making up for it now. plus with everyone taking leave here and there and one colleague going on course for 3 weeks, its going to be long long days ahead for me.

it has been raining the whole day today. so cold! i do like the cold and wet weather. but its january already so it shouldn't be like that. everything i like should be in december. keke...

well, my new year resolution this year is to make december 2006 a happy and happening month! =)

it took me freaking 2 hrs to make them look pretty with all the comments and it took me another freaking 2 hrs to post them up because when i posted it, the picture became very small. so tiny you cannot even see whose face is it.

but i finally managed to overcome the problem and ta dah! at least it looks decent now.

i actually had lots of say. was thinking on what to blog about when i was monotonously putting up the collage. but all the posting took out lots of steam out of me that now my brain can't think straight.

the pictures were taken over this 2 months and tiled chronically. managed to install microsoft office (to read the manual on how to creat polaroid photos using photoshop), usb bluetooth adapter (to transfer the photos from my hp to the com) and hello (to upload the pictures). not bad eh! nagged dar to install for me so long still never. so rolled up my sleeves during my leave and get to it.

may i present you, 39 thousand words (p.s. - i think i shall photoblog more often, its less taxing then correcting my grammar, spelling after each entry lor, now that i've gotten the hang of it again after such a long time. => ) :
