Guilty Pleasure

I Love Maid-Sama....

I'm Hooked!!!!

At Work

Ooh, I have been working for a month already. Therefore, very busy.

Therefore, haven't been contacting friends much.

Haven't been online much.

Haven't been blogging much.

Yah, but I am settling down fine. I enjoy my work. But because of the nature of my work, I have been eating quite a fair bit and yes, I am very very conscious about it. Weekdays I am too tired to exercise and weekends I am too busy doing my own things to even think of exercising.

I know these are merely excuses.

But I am finally earning my own keep, a large part of which will be taxed by my parents and also towards my new home. I finally understand the severity of my purchase. I am also seeing how this purchase has had a big impact in my life. Everything is proceeding in a very weird arrangement.

And dear friends, let's utilise the phone more often. Coz going online now requires extra effort. No longer like last time when we were connected to the internet 24/7 and to not be online was a very weird thing. Now I am more reachable on my phone. Pls note tt.

Will also be blogging less (duh!)... But let's meet up more. I have more moolah now to not care tt I have to take the taxi home. Hehe!!

My new home - Parc Lumiere

Alright, most of you have already been informed that yes, Adam and I have bought a flat together. It's called Parc Lumiere, the DBSS site in Simei. It actually is along Simei road, about 20-30m away from my 2 aunties' house and about 10min walk from my own home too. Very very convenient.

The purchase was very sudden because the developers had this DBSS on a first-come-first-serve basis and not balloting. Adam and I have been eyeing that location too but we didn't think that the launch would happen just like tt - so sudden. We were in a frenzy coz the news reported of a queue already outside the showflat on the Friday night. Official launch was to be on Saturday.

We were some of the donkeys that actually queued overnight. Haha!! Like Adam said, "I have never been son kiasu in my whole life." It was a huge family affair coz my parents came and went a few times, reliefing us of our queues and bringing food and drinks. Adam's mum also woke up bright and early on Saturday to deliver us breakfast. She came around again in the afternoon to see us progress through the queue to pick our unit. It was really tiring.

Our queue number was #176. By the time we booked our unit, our number was #0110. Therefore, about 60 odd applicants had chosen to give up because of the queue or because of affordability. We queued 23 hours before we finally booked our unit. It was no joke. All this happened on 18th April. I still had my last exam paper on the 20th. It was crazy lah...

But now tt all the relevant forms have been submitted and the finances have been worked out, everything is smooth and relaxed again. It won't be tt long, supposed to be completed in 2-3years time. Meanwhile we will be saving up for the reno and other nitty gritty stuff that we will need for our own home.

The next few things I will be looking forward to is to sort and throw all my old notes and books, as well as shopping for my working clothes. That should keep me occupied for a while. =)

Bye Bye Graduation Project

I am going to submit the report tml. I don't care that the deadline got extended till Monday. A bit stupid to extend it now coz it is already completed and who wants to continue sloughing over it when exams start next week??

Goodbye GP, it was hell meeting you.

Hello Exams.

Exactly 1 week

I used to count down till the end of exams. Now I am just counting down to the submission of my GP. And we will be celebrating already upon submitting the GP on Thursday. LOL. Celebrating even before we sit for the exams. =)

And I am typing this post using Adam's Mac. Oh boy, what a difference the Mac makes... The photos on my blog look brighter and more vibrant. The colours all just spring out and makes the whole thing look even more beautiful than it already is... Sigh... I want to get a lappie again soon. Maybe with my first bonus. 

Yes, tml I will be camping myself in front of a comp in school to pia my GP. In the morning before meeting Cat and it shall go on in the afternoon after the meeting. I have never ever worked so hard for a project. Maybe just once when I was still in Poly. But tt was coz the software could only be found in the school IT lad so we wanted to finish it in one go and we stayed in school till almost 9 to finish it. I hate IT. Computers constantly challenge me.

Revelation

I realised that boys aren't the only ones who have difficulties with temptations. Girls have temptations too. And it's difficult to resist too.

Oh boy, who knew it could be this way??

Crunch time

Ok, it is just slightly less than 2 weeks till the submission of GP. I am officially gg full speed ahead right till the end. Thing is, I can finally set my mind to just my work.

Tt is because I have found a job!!! Woohoo!!! With tt load off my mind, I can fully concentrate on the things that are important. I know my priorities are a bit screwed... It should have been school work above everything else, but I admit that it was not. hehe!! Now that I can see where I am headed after graduation, it is easier for me to let my mind settle and concentrate on the things that matter. =)

Now, I can just smile and look ahead.

It's a Friday!!

Dear mama is coming home with McNuggets for me! Hehe!! Macs for lunch is something I have not had in a long long time!!

Anyway, I cannot believe that exactly 1 month from now, everything will be over. I am graduating soon. =)

First Draft

I think it will end today. Not the final lah. Got some parts I am still thinking over so I think I need to indicate to Cat tt I am still putting thought into it and tt while she is reading through, I will be adding on things at the same time.

I should be able to send out to her by this evening. Cross my fingers.

Doing work

My motivation to work is back!! Yep, typing report and doing all the things that should have been done like 2 weeks ago. But I have to admit that having a baby at home is so distracting!!! On one hand, I get things done better when I do them at home but on the other hand, the baby calls out to me every couple of hours. Haiz...

I am gg to miss Gordon (BABY G) when he goes back to Hong Kong.

I get this feeling of warmth when I feed him his milk and he drinks it properly. I also feel very happy when he falls asleep in my arms. But no lah, I am not craving to be a mother yet. Coz I gratefully give the "middle of the night" duty up to my mother and in the mornings I don't wake up early to take care of him. I still like being a "part-time" nanny only.

Ok, since he is having his nap now, better quickly do report. Later, bringing him out to Changi Airport!!!
