Financial Controller

I can never be one :( Why am I suddenly so broke? On another note, Didn't feel much though after much anticipation.

Why do women

1. have to go through menses? 2. have to walk around with a big stomach, worrying about herself and the one inside for 9 months? 3. have to allow themselves to be 'cut open' to bring the one inside out? 4. have to drink horrible herbal crap to supplement for the blood loss each month? (which brings me back to point 1) 5. have to be at the disadvantage when things don't work out between a man and a woman. So much so for having 2 letters added to the word 'man'.

Next year this time

I want to be tanned and be spotted with my 'bob' hairstyle again. Of course, I may change my mind then... *** I've been a vegeterian for a week, more than what I usually am because of a pact I made with Buddha. Because the eating places around my office are not vegeterian friendly at all, all I had was economy rice (rice, vegetables, potatoes, eggs). Because my mum is not a pro vegeterian chef, I had eggs (again) in the meals she prepared. Because I'm so carbo loaded, I think the pounds lost will be back soon if I go on like this. Not that my initial aim was to lose weight but I'm not a rice person and I'm really very sick of it. I'm not that young anymore so I can't consume eggs in every other meal. Mock meat everyday is not that healthy either. Sigh... am I too choosy or it's quite tough to be a vegeterian at times? I. Must. Have. Fish. Today. For the first time lately, I really think I have lost weight and it's quite obvious on my arms. Maybe ...

I'm meeting...

1. Royston Tan & 3 other local film makers later (who knows, they may be famous one day?). 2. most likely Jackie Chan end of this month but we are more concerned about Daniel Wu! 3. although quite unlikely but there's a glimmer of hope, LOUIS KOO! I've gotten hold of his manager's contact number and was told he's even hotter!!! What are the chances? Just when I said I don't like taking half days off, I need to do so next month. Everything just have to come together... But I'm quite lucky to have shortened a week long wait to 4 days. I. Shouldn't. Complain. About. Anything.

Have you wonder?

Why do some of us work so hard. In recent months, there were a few times I woke up in the middle of the night and couldn't go back to sleep because work was on my mind. Even on day offs, I'm tempted to check my emails. And most of the time, I really do. But me being me, I pamper myself too much. When I feel I'm overworked, I stop and wonder, is it worth it? What am I doing this for? How long more and how far can I go? Maybe I just need the holiday. I even requested the launch to be planned around my holiday. Ha, how dare I! But no way am I gonna ruin that. Next month has something I look forward to and dread - gown selection & mum's operation. Doesn't help that my grandpa is in the hospital too and getting himself yet another operation. Why do some people suddenly break down at one go? Life. Ageing. Goodbye. Good night...

I actually...

fell asleep with America's Next Top Model on. This is something only my mum & brother do and now I'm following suit. I woke up 40mins later and decided not to sleep just yet because I'm not working tomorrow! Gonna be a babysitter for a couple of hours and off to the hospital with mummy. And I've booked us tickets to Bangkok. Hate the hidden costs but still looking forward to the trip. July seems so far away...

A Great Weekend

An impromptu visit to the Botanical Garden had us stuck in the rain and cut short our first visit to barely half an hour. We kinda asked for it because the sky was rather dark when we were making our way there. If you don't try, you won't know right? While it rained.. we started camwhoring. The rain didn't show any sign it would stop any time soon and so we decided to leave. Because we were pretty near Dempsey, we found ourselves at Ben & Jerry's minutes later, $16 poorer and a little fatter. I thought we could head back to the Botanical Garden if the weather was helpful enough. Too bad it wasn't. And so we headed for Vivo to catch a show. Seats were lousy and we gave up. While Mr. Yeo went to do his uncle thingy (buying 4D), I went shopping at Forever21. Grabbed a dress, saw the long queue and decided to walk one more round. I hate long queues! Found a pretty clutch bag but it was the last piece and thread were coming off so back to the shelf of course. Decide...

Yesterday's Dinner

No sunkissed trip this year as the brides to-be need to stay fair so over dinner yesterday, we have decided Bangkok it will be. Just need to cross our fingers that nothing will hinder our trip then. This is getting so exciting! May - SX's ROM Jun - JH's photoshoot Jul - BANGKOK Jul/Aug - SX's photoshoot Aug/Sep - my photoshoot Nov - SX's customary Dec - JH's ROM Jan - Mine! Must make sure not to stuff ourselves with too much food. Must also promise myself to eat healthily in March before gown selection next month. The steps do help a little. It's 223 steps to be exact, about 9 to 10 storeys I would say? Way to go!
