Life as an intern

Thursday, October 11, 2012

These few weeks working as an intern, having to adjust to the 8.30 - 6 office hours is definitely no easy feat.
Over the past few weeks, I've developed:

1) Severe, and I mean ABSOLUTELY SEVERE dark eye circles
2) Huge eyebags...................
3) Pimples. 'Nuff said.
4) All sorts of weird pain all over my body. Especially headache!
5) Excessive eye shit
6) Possibly even gain lots of weight

Every night I dread the idea of having to sleep late, knowing the next morning I have to wake up FREAKING early. Oh gosh..

But one awesome thing about my workplace is.........

The people are so nice!
Everyone is SERIOUSLY nice.

That's something I am so happy about! :)

On the first day of internship, in fact, my boss actually treated us to Astons Specialties!

Ordered grilled fish :-) Don't look tempting but it taste pretty good.....

Just going to blog about some events last month?
I finally went to Jcube for the first time! Dear and I went there during one of the days when I was still on MC, and yes, shopping waits for no (wo)man! Sickness is not an excuse to stop shopping, isn't it? Hahhaa.

Went to their Miyoc outlet and bought this uber chic dip dye denim vest!

Freaking chio, and it's even better in real life!

Well, since pay day was near, I got myself some apparels from several blogshop.. My most recent purchase was from Missypixie! I bought their maxi dress in a really pretty light turqoise shade and that is SO my birthday dress :P

Bought some clothes from Vauntcloset as well!
Wore one of their asymmetrical pattern peplum top on a Friday when I was on my way to Blackbird Cafe to find dear~

Asymmetrical pattern peplum top is from Vauntcloset :)

Since I was wearing a peplum skirt that day, I just tucked it in! Love it!

Despite several attempts to SAVE MONEY, I figured out I might as well just give up. Went to eat dinner at Blackbird Cafe and my boyfriend whipped up a SPECIAL meal for me!

And yes, he combined all my favourite food in the whole.....................

Mushroom, prawns, scallops are my favourite food in the world!! And this, was just heavenly.

On another lovely Saturday, when Dear worked 4pm, we decided to pay a visit back to Chockfull of Beans again for a late brunch, and they are just conveniently located at Changi Village!

This time, I decided to try out their mango ice blended with real juicy mango bits and whipped cream on top of it :) It was absolutely DELICIOUS. I just couldn't get enough of it!

Ordered my Portobello Mushrooms with Eggs Benedict! And had a failed attempt at taking a decent polaroid photo.. Sigh but still~

Anyway the past few weeks Dear has been around for almost everyday. He even TRANSFORMED one of my house's old furniture into a brand new one!

This is actually a fishtank holder but it got rusty so we were quite worried it might give way and break the fish tank. But Dear bought new paint (specially meant for rusty metal) from Homefix and gave it a brand new look!

After that, he went to OTF aquarium and bought some aqua plants and rocks!

And..................

TADAA!

Look at how Dear's arranged the rocks! It's so pretty! Like a garden......

The aquarium has made the house a lot more livelier, together with the newly bought shrimps and tetra fishes!

So proud of him...

I was actually thinking how much we could actually save in the future if we just get old furnis from the gurunguni man and revamped them into brand-new looking ones! But prolly the idea wouldn't last long 'cos I'm not a fan of.. old stuffs user. Heheh :/

Been loving my Instax mini polaroid so much that I guess most of my pay is also spent on instax films? Just recently bought Hello Kitty instax films from Gadget Passion's warehouse.. In fact ,they are prolly the cheapest around in Singapore!

Dear insisted I use it during the month of November... 'cos it's *ahem*, my BIRTHDAY!

Well as seen on my wall, You can already see how frequent I've been using my polaroid..... Hehehe :)

Also bought some stickers to decorate my polaroid!

Advanced Birthday Celebration for Mummy at Boon Tong Kee!
Well, we decided to give this a try for Mummy's birthday.. and wonder what's all the fuss about!

The outlet we went to was at East Coast Road, and by dinner time (On a Sunday), it was considerably packed. The waiters and waitresses were busy serving customers that somehow, they also mixed up our order which made us feel abit..... :/

Anyway, Mummy loves sea cucumber so we ordered Sea Cucumber and Mushrooms! ($24)

The mushrooms were pretty juicy.. I didn't get to eat the sea cucumber but it was finished within 10 minutes so I assume it was good too? :)

Boon Tong Kee is well-known for their chicken rice, so of course, their chicken has to be of substantial quality. I thought that the sauce was really nice, but the chicken was cold.........

This seem like any other ordinary vegetable dish, nothing special, but nothing bad about it either.

Steamed Egg - consisting of 3 different types of eggs. It was the ultimate dish we were looking forward to, but we were greatly disappointed. The steamed egg was so soft that it literally melted in our mouth. It was pretty bland and we thought it was a waste of money....

Overall, I don't think I will be coming here except for maybe their chicken rice. It's not a restaurant that serves GOOD food that makes you crave for more. Just a normal restaurant with normal standard food.

After dinner, Dear sent my parents home and we went to Woodlands Harbour/Bay/Whatever for dating and coincidentally, it was also Mid Autumn festival!

And of course, the one behind him..... is his second wife. :(

Yesterday, Dear picked me up from work and we went to Jurong Point's newly opened Malaysia's food street - Boleh Malaysia! I came to know of it after reading about it on the newspaper at work. They mentioned that the food served there are all originated from Malaysia's street hawkers.

Boleh Malaysia is located on the last floor of Jurong Point (Pardon me, I haven't been to Jurong Point before.. And how could I not have?! It was indeed a great mall!) and we were pleased by how the ambience was! It was like a typical food court, however, it did have a Malaysia food street feel to it with the "temporary stalls" with the nostalgic signboards.

There were already a huge crowd and many people were actually hovering around occupied seats, waiting for them to finish or asking them if they could share seats. Some of the stall vendors are Malaysians, after hearing their accents and their fluent Cantonese.

We wanted to go and try their KL Hokkien Mee and we ordered a small one ($4.50) and the small, is REALLY SMALL. It was quite a miserable portion and I felt quite cheated?

But it was really good! Even better than the one we tried at Geylang.. but at only half the price!

We also ordered Fried Carrot cake with oysters and something else which we didn't find that nice.

Guess the best dish was the KL Hokkien Mee!

Anyway, after our dinner, we went to Ji De Chi for dessert and it was full-house! Thankfully we still managed to grab a seat and was served promptly. They have Durian snow ice too!!!!!

I was so tempted to try it, but decided to stay focus on Mango snow ice ($5) instead. And the price wasn't that steep either, compared to the other snow ice shops in Singapore.

Finally it arrived!

Look at the toppings! Yogurt pearls that burst in your mouth and nata de coco! This dish is the ultimate dessert for all mango lovers!

After dessert, walked around Jurong Point before heading to the nearby prawning site.
Well, I guess I got abit upset about some stuffs so yeah, all the crazy stupid girly drama happened. Tried to control how I felt but I just couldn't take it.. Guess it hit me kinda hard. There was so much hurt inside me and so many emotions and thoughts running through at the same time that I just didn't know what to do.

Dear decided to make me feel better by asking me if I wanted to chill somewhere for a drink? I was expecting prolly some bar but he brought me to his old workplace, One Rochester.

I was so in love with the surrounding and ambience that I couldn't take my eyes off everything. There weren't much people there and the ambience was so ROMANTIC!

And yes, we were sitting by the sofa, surrounded by pretty lights and trees..

One Caramel (top)

Ordered a Appletini for myself, and it surprisingly turned out really good and refreshing! Yum!

Freaking dark eyes (from faded eyeliner) thanks to the drama earlier on.

And I love our sofa cushion seat!

Well, we kinda had a mushy-serious talk about the future, and I wasn't really expecting much from him, but we started discussing on where we'd hold our weddings at, style of the wedding, the food preparation etc, as if we were really going to prepare our wedding anytime soon -_-

Guess he really made my day that I ended the night smiling and with a lighter heart!

Really love nights like this....
Feel so blessed and loved right now. :)

My big pores :'(

Wednesday, March 24, 2010

Okay, just in case you're wondering what I'm up to these few days..

To be honest, I'm not doing anything at all. Everytime after work, I'd be dead tired and all I want to do is to just lie down on my bed and sleep.. Talking about work, I'm a bit frustrated at something!

I was appointed to do the cashiering job but I screwed it up :(

Why?

Because there was this customer who kept on changing his orders! Despite me keying in his order, he will take a look at the menu again and say, "Okay, give me this. Forget about the previous one."

And I kept on changing until the whole system got error!! And I think my boss was a bit pissed off with me.. :(

OKAY FINE WHATEVER.

Anyway, 2 days ago I went to Watsons to get some necessities.

I can say that Watsons is one of my favourite stores because they always have discount and there are so many pretty things to look at! Hehehehe :)

I bought a Biore pore pack too, because recently I've noticed that I've got BLACKHEADS!! I don't know where it came from, but IT'S DISGUSTING.

Looks pretty professional with the close lookup of the dirty yellowish greeny impurities..

I put it to test and I had to wet my nose and align the pore pack in place.

When I peeled it off, the pain was excruciating! PAIN LIKE SHIT! (I thought I saw hair on it)

Sadly, the blackheads still remain on my nose and my pores ARE ENLARGED NOW.

To hell with pore tightening that it has stated on the cover.. Argh.

More like pore enlarging!!

Anyway, last weekend my daddy drove us to Queenstown Shopping Centre!

I spent $15 on a lot of small little accessories :)

I bought a pair of eyelashes, a pair of earrings and a really pretty and sweet beige flower hairclip!

Not only that, I also pierced my left ear!! It didn't hurt at all, even though it was quite near the bone because it was supposedly to be my third hole for my left ear..

Don't wanna take a picture of my ear because it's pretty camera shy. YES IT SAID SO.

A illustration will do the job! Hehe :)

I wasted my money on a bottle of lotion because the person was SO sure I could probably get an infection someday -_- I fell for her business trick during that moment! zzzz.

While I spent such a miserable amount at Queenstown shopper centre, my brother spent a whopping amount of $300++!!

Guess what he spent it on? Oh wait, he didn't even spent his own money. It was my father's money actually.

HE BOUGHT A WII.

And my father just paid for it without hesitation or anything!!

Back then when I wanted to get a new handphone, he was SOOOO reluctant and took so many weeks to consider about it..

BIASED BIASED BIASED!!

I pouted throughout the whole trip back home, then my father said, "Okay la, you want to buy what??"

"The bag at Queensway."

"How much?"

"Approximately 45."

"Okay lor."

"We're already at PIE then you say that!!"

-_-

It's okay, I'm 17 (Fine, TURNING 17) and a few more years down to adulthood. Learn to be more self reliant and independent okay!!

When we got back, my brother immediately installed the Wii and my father and him spent the whole night playing it..

I'm positive that a few years later, this machine will end up at the back of the storage room, with thick layers of dust and probably some algae on the remote control..

I AM SO SURE.

I have a sudden craving for Eu Yan Sang's herbal jelly.. Yummy :P

I only get to eat it when I was down with fever and cough! Mummy went to Bugis and bought it for me because it's cooling and good for health.
If I ain't sick, this is probably what she'd shoot at me with if I were to tell her I want to eat that,

"Earning your own money what, go buy yourself la!"

See?

I NEED TO RANT ABOUT STUFFS

Tuesday, February 09, 2010

I hate blogshops who don't even bother to inform their customers through email/sms when their stuffs have arrived. Damn it, we paid for it and guess what?

They say they will confiscate it if you don't collect by the given time when they don't even bother to tell their customers it has arrived!!

I'm so irritated by this stupid dumbass shit head blogshop.

She's conducting a mass meetup tomorrow (I just knew it today since I haven't been touching my computer for the past one week) and SHE DIDN'T EVEN BOTHER TO SMS ME OR EMAIL ME.

And she's one big ugly shit twit head who looks like an ostrich with heavy foundation and cheap silver eyeliner who has got a horribly looking boyfriend. I HATE HER EVEN THOUGH I HAVEN'T EVEN MEET HER YET. If she ever confiscate my stuffs, SHE IS SO DEAD.

When I meet her on the spot to collect my stuff I'm going to give her hell.
SO GOING TO GIVE HER HELL.

Okay I feel much better now.
Hehehehe.

A happy news- My boss is going to treat all of us to shark fin and abalone at UOB plaza, 60th floor!!
Since we've got like 6 people, it's going to cost $888+!! (It was written in the flyer)

I hope I can bring my camera and take some photos tomorrow, hehe.

By the way, this chinese new year I'm going back to Malaysia to eat reunion dinner with my relatives!!
It's the first time we are going back, so my mother is suppperrrr happy about it!

I can't wait to see En En!!!!!
We were on the phone yesterday and she only managed to say "jie jie" to me.

So cute lor!!!!!!!!!!!

Chinese New Year Spring Clean

Sunday, January 25, 2009

Walao, fuck la.

You know I hate spring cleaning so much.
It involves so much of my energy!!!!!!

And there, my father keeps nagging at me to get my desk cleaned up. I can't take it anymore. He gave me only 5 minutes to shut down the computer and I have to tidy up my desk. (Which is impossible)

Oh ya, I'm so happy!!!!!!!

My aunt sent me a Hair Curler! It can do up to 10 types of hair styles, like big curls, waves, ringlets, zigzag, tight curls etc~

It can even straighten the hair!

I will blog about it with photos! Hehe, it's damn useful man. Especially outings with my girlfriends :D
Thank you aunt!!!!!!!

Alright, 5 minutes over.
Let hell begin.

3 Happy things!

Saturday, October 25, 2008

Okay.

I'm gonna stay at home until 4.30pm today. I'm wearing a tight grey shirt, and my adidas red shorts.

I'm gonna stare at the mirror.

I'm gonna go on a diet damnit!!!!!!

I put on weight already lor!
Even though I haven't check yet, but can feel!!!!
FUCK FUCK FUCK.

Right now, I'm gonna follow a diet, so I'll let you guys know whether it works out ok!!

hehehee :)

Anyway, I EARNED $9 YESTERDAY!

I sold off my brown tube dress/top, because I really don't know where to wear it to.
And it's brand new!

So Leon was lecturing me about the rules of accounts that we cannot sell at a loss blah blah blah.
But I've already kept it for so long, so I shouldn't sell it at the same price what.

Hehe, the customer was very nice, so the transaction went off well.

And MY PTM!
I was expecting her to tell my father that I get distracted easily, and talk alot in class cannot stop.

Surprisingly, she told my father that I'm a very responsive and responsible girl!!!!!

LOL!!

My father was also surprised :x

Lalalalaa, okay. I wanna go offline now.
But before that, I'll upload some photos first from yesterday =)
