________________________________________

Life in Mono.....what a song from Great Expectations. Anyway, love my playlist....the Retros remind me of the good old days....happening then siahz....now if I shake...sure got at least one person laugh...and I guarantee I KNOW who :P

Guess my Age...

Toast:

My colleagues thought that I just graduated from college...and yesterday someone asked me and my "friend" (who is my sis and 8 years younger than me) which school I'm studying..gosh?! hey I'm going to be 30 soon siahz! My sis even joked that my facial package was well spent...

Well I dun sound happy looking young huh..........of coz I love having that youthful look.....but not to the extent that I look like a student still. Eg. in office...there were some people who doubted my understanding untill I delivered it...and there was a time a colleague asked "don't you think you are too young to get married?!" after overhearing that I'm getting married next year.

Was asking my sis last night...." Do I really look that young?" Nowadays everyone seems really surprised when I told them my age. Hmmnn...could be due to my small frame...I seem to shrink lately...and also my hair...I had it straigtened back again.

In short, I'm much wiser than they think I am.

Random pictures at the flyers

last year i lost my grandma in a month, today i lost a great friend in less than a year.
these 2 wonderful people are the few best people in my life. the toughest and most inspirational. they went through my bad times together and they chose to suffer theirs alone. they were the ones i turn to when i was at my worst.

they fought hard to live to the very end.
they make me feel much ashamed of myself as at times i feel like giving up.

the sadness within seems so hard to express, going to Chris' wake tonight is like the hardest thing for me to do right now.

It's time

Butter:

Just back from SGH A&E for the stuoid wisdom toothache >.<
hurts so much I couldn't slept yesterday, and the day before. Final straw I went to A&E.

Had a jab, now my side of the mouth is numb and I couldn't feel a thing. Kinda weird feeling.
So appointment in 6 hours time for extraction. Going to get it done and over with.

So i guessed it's my turn after Toast. But i guessed it's worth it after the torture it brought me for the last 2 nights. Really waves and waves of pain. My god... Apparently the tooth chipped off a big chunk and exposed the veins, that's why the ache.. haizz.

Now waiting for half and hour or so, i will take the pain killer before the jab wears off.
Lets try to get the tooth after it's out tomorrow for a good look see.

Toast:

Avenue Q was really Funny....first time saw puppets making out haha. Butter laughed super loud loh *wink*

Went to Club 21 sale at Singapore Flyer yesterday....it was the last day siahz haiz...the sale started on the 6th Nov (Got to know the sale after checking my yahoo email on Sun morning)...all the good stuff and right sizes all gone when we got there. Brands like CK, Armani, DKNY, Diesel, Marc Jacobs etc etc at 80% discount. There was like pasar malam...and really dusty. Saw some people just grab and grab and grab...gosh "do they know what they are buying?" Guess who really cares when comes to brands. Jackets that used to cost S$600 and selling at S$50 (?!) There were original price tags @ S$4-5K, and after discount going @ S$500-800+. Anyway, people were buying like nobody's business...who cares about recession during a Club 21 sale!
Almost wanted to buy that size 0 pants...well...was quite convinced that I could fit into it until Butter commented heh. Still kinda convinced that I could wear that wor (I seriously lost alot of weight lately even colleagues commented that I had "mini" waist...nah wasn't ill treated by Butter la)....but no fitting room...and after much thought decided not to risk having the pants stuck at my butt @ home :P
I bought a CK top st S$50 and a pair of CK shoes at S$80...2 items....somehow I felt kinda proud of myself....I bought only 2 items! Save money heeeee
kinda lost Butter in there..sort of remembered that I went with him only after I gone through all the stuff there :P

On leave this Thur, it's our flat selection day! Probably we will get something we like....the chance remains looking good :)

Last but not least, I'm counting down.....the first 2 weeks of Dec, I will be on block leave hiakz hiakz (initially was quite paranoid of losing my job....now retrenchment = popular trend....and I'm in the banking sector....to be honest was quite stressed few days ago....but anyway...whatever will be...will be....it's going to be funny that I get retrenched also...I joined the organisation not even 6 mths yet siahz. Even if they do...like what my friend, Shirley, said..."it will take quite a while to reach you coz the top will ganna first". So anyway I'm going to keep my fingers crossed...I wun be so suai right???)

Musical: Avenue Q

AVENUE Q is the story of Princeton, a bright-eyed college grad who comes to New York City with big dreams and a tiny bank account. He soon discovers that the only neighborhood in his price range is Avenue Q; still, the neighbors seem nice. There's Brian the out-of-work comedian and his therapist fianceé Christmas Eve; Nicky the good-hearted slacker and his roommate Rod -- a Republican investment banker who seems to have some sort of secret; an Internet addict called Trekkie Monster; and a very cute kindergarten teaching assistant named Kate. And would you believe the building's superintendent is Gary Coleman?!? (Yes, that Gary Coleman.) Together, Princeton and his newfound friends struggle to find jobs, dates, and their ever-elusive purpose in life.

5 BUTTERS worth!!!

Movie Reviews: 007 Quantum Of Solace

'Quantum of Solace' continues the high octane adventures of James Bond from 'Casino Royale'. Picking up literally days where the previous film left off, after being betrayed by Vesper, the woman he loved, 007 fights the urge to make his latest mission personal. Having captured Mr. White, and in pursuing his determination to uncover the truth, Bond and 'M' interrogate Mr. White who reveals the organisation which blackmailed Vesper to steal Bond's casino winnings is far more complex and dangerous than anyone had imagined.

Butter's Review:

I loved this new Bond series, no fancy tools, no "bullet proof" Bond, just pure action like what the real Bond should be. An excellent catch, do try Casino Royale 1st before this, although it really don't make alot of difference, but will give you a bit on what they are talking about her.

+point, M is great.

I give it 4 BUTTERS

Movie Reviews: The Coffin

Can you change your luck? Can you escape bad karma? Can you cheat death?In The Coffin, those questions are answered with a resounding "No!" in the form of a 10-wheel truck T-boning a Mercedes-Benz sedan.It happens pretty quickly too. And once that question is out of the way early on, it frees up the rest of the movie for plenty of jump scares and scenes of ceaseless, calculated beauty from Beautiful Boxer and Pleasure Factory director Ekachai Uekrongtham.

Butter's Review:

Another inside look flim of the weird and bizzare. This flim sets an artistic view of the things people do to protect themselves and their loved ones. Good? One thing's for sure, there's no free lunch in the world. You gain some, you loose some. A very good cast makes up for the struggling plot. Excellent work from the director too.

I give it 3 BUTTERS:

Movie Reviews: Tropic Thunder

A commercial depicts rapper Alpa Chino (Brandon T. Jackson) promoting his two brands: the "Booty Sweat" energy drink and "Bust-A-Nut" candy bar, while performing his hit song, "I Love Tha' Pussy". The first trailer shows action star Tugg Speedman's (Ben Stiller) latest film, 'Scorcher VI: Global Meltdown', a film so repetitive of it's five predecessors that even the trailer narrator sounds shaky about it. Another trailer features funnyman Jeff "Fatty" Portnoy (Jack Black), playing the entirety of "America's favorite obese family" in the highly flautlent 'The Fatties: Fart 2'. The final trailer, entitled 'Satan's Alley', features Australian "five-time Oscar winner" Kirk Lazarus (Robert Downey Jr.) and Tobey Maguire (as himself) as two monks who begin an empassioned affair.

Butter's Review:

An abosolutely hilarious flim to catch. A very strong cast and very decent plot. Robert Downey Jr has my vote for best actor in this flim. Definately a good catch anytime for some stress relieve.

I give it 4 BUTTERS.
