halloween

it's scary when u can look TOO young.

walked into 2 4D/toto outlets in a dae..and had both aunties asking me
"小妹妹, 你有没有过十八岁? 有没有带IC?"

and then last weekend..was at IMM looking at this set of furniture for my room while my parents were a distance awae. and then the saleman told me the price, followed by giving me his namecard and ended with this most revolting sentence:
"if you like it..can ask your parents to come back with u"
and then i retorted "i can make my own decision"
to which he replied "oh! dats great!"
i noe he probably tot i'm a spoilt brat who could get anything i wanted ...i buy my stuff with my own hard earned cash~
duhz. like i will buy anything from him even if he gave it to me free.

and these are not the only 2 lone cases.
so there are other pple who always sae how lucky i am dat i look young. i guess i am lucky.
but still...
how about imagining tat pple dun take u for your word bcos u look kiddy?
it's IRRITATING.

sentosa luge

these pictures are long overdue..from the sentosa luge a couple of weeks ago..but they are cute!
the deal: 2luge+skyride and get 1 free!

but after the first luge..u roughly know where all the bends are already..and by the 3rd time..u will agree that the laws of diminishing marginal utility have sunk in...hehee.
but still the skyride was nice and breezy..din buy the photo..but stole it off the screen :Pstealing helmets??

2. table
3. dressing table/turnable dressing wardrobe from scanteak
4. glassdoor cupboard / shelves ?
5. tv?
6. computer?
7. cushy chair?

wedding dinner

my dear fren enwm had sent us her handmade wedding invitation card to her wedding dinner in KL. i wanted to go for her wedding of cos! but the harsh realities of life like $$$ and work overload were bogging me down. well well..at least rabbit reminded me tat this was once in a lifetime..and we won't wanna miss it.
so i bought our air tics and happily applied for leave with my mgr.
just then...my director rang me from US saying the project was urgent and asked me to put in my best effort - aka more OT please.
Sheesh. *guilt*
Then heck.
i already booked the airtics liao leh.

urm...okie i kinda knew the flight to KL was short..but this short?!! after the plane flew to the right altitude and the airstewardess distributed the drinks (note: only drinks..no food!) ...the pilot said it was time to descend liao...haha...
when we reached the KLIA they had this taxi booth at the airport..u can tell them where u wanna go..then they tell u how much and print out the ticket for u (with your destination on it). wow..i was secretly quite impressed...bcos this means tat no haggling with the taxi driver. transportation was like my next biggest worry..after safety.

and so all timing was on target and we checked into the hotel at around 6pm... hm..the dinner's at 7. decided tat we would bathe change and make-up..and be fashionably late for the dinner. reached the ballroom vicinity around 730..urm..and who was tat we hear in the distance?
hehehe... yesh it was our dear bride waiting outside the ballroom for the march-in already... urm..which also means tat we are quite late liao.haha. so m'sia wedding dinners are more punctual than sg ones. Oh well...but it was fate wasn't it? if we had not been so late..we would have missed this precious moment of taking this photo with her liao.
wedding dinner fare was much the same... wedding souvenirs were these choc cakes which i usually dun eat. but hungry us had them for breakfast the following morning...
and some photos of our dear couple on stage...
sat was gathering-cum-shopping dae.. th was so kind to give us a lift to sunway pyramid shopping centre..and lend us his wife for the afternoon. hehe. yesh..and sunway pyramid is big..like vivo city..took us a dae to cover all the levels...
chendol and apong-balik for our tea...at the same time..th met up with us again. me and rabbit showed off our solid sony cybershot...which kinda influenced them to get a similar one for their trip the next dae. haha..i hope sony reads this and gives us a reward for advertising their product... altho it had been such a killer busy and hectic week for me after coming back..i'm just so glad tat i had gone for the dinner... if i hadn't..and looked back on it yrs later...i probably would have kicked myself for giving myself excuses for not attending. money would not be able to buy me back the time to attend your wedding again. it felt really great to be able to see u happily married woman!
i din have any photo of u on my blog previously...so this entry is especially for u!
