I'm a lazy girl.

This is gonna be a long post, but I'm going to cut short cause there's so much to be update!

15.07.2012
So I went shopping alone at town, Orchard and Somerset for freaking 8 long hours non stop, no resting and no eating. Crazy much right? I'm starving but since I'm alone and I haven't done with my shopping so I didn't stop to eat, just grab a chocolate bar to satisfy my suffering stomach. Went to Topshop, Zara, Forever 21, Cotton On, Pull and bears and Esprit. Since it was on a Sunday, so the queue for fitting room and paying was really long, I guess that's why I manage to shop for so long. Anyway, ended up buying 1 pull and bears shorts and a top, Zara's top, F21's white spaghetti top and a black rose ear rings. That's all! I can't believe I didn't manage to buy more at F21 since I always have to sacrifice some really nice tops to buy due to my budget, but that day I went to both Somerset and Orchard outlets still did not see anything that could tempt me into buying. So disappointing. Sigh. By the way, the Esprit outlet at Wisma is really huge with the men's section that JP don't have. Tried 16 pieces but no buying anything cause I can't enjoy the staff discount if I buy it there! So just went and tried on those clothes that I wanted to buy at JP but didn't have the time to try when I'm working. But there's this shorts I really liked but my sis say is so freaking ugly at Wisma! I almost, almost gave in and buy it because is on a 50% sale, original price is $69.90 and JP don't have this anymore!! So since my sis will not be helping me depreciate the shorts I just have to give it a miss then.

Is a Thursday and I finally meet up with xiaoyuan, my bestie for like 8 freaking long years! Went town with her again around 5pm and we had ramen cause both of us were famished without eating lunch. She's going to fly to Malaysia that night so I accompany her till she need to return home and grab her luggage to the airport. But we ended up leaving town late and she almost have to sacrifice her luggage and board plane empty handed, lucky for her, after reaching airport, her flight got delayed and she cab home and grab her luggage. LOL. She's really one funny girl. Ohya, I wanted to blog about this girl, so after eating ramen and we have no way to go, xy and me decided to find a place to sit so we can talk and rest our legs. So we found a seat at the Starbucks at Ion and we had a cake there too. We were having a heart to heart talk about her recent happening when this girl suddenly approach us and asked if we were going to sit for a very long time here. Since Starbucks was quite packed that time, there isn't any seats left so we thought she's asking because she might want to sit after we leave. So xy told her we're going to buy a drink later and was planning to sit for a long time here. Thought she will leave but she surprised us by saying then can I charge my phone at the slot behind you? SHE TOOK OUT A IPHONE CHARGER TO CHARGE HER PHONE AND LEFT HER IPHONE 3 ON OUR TABLE AND WALKED AWAY. After making sure she really leave our sight, me and xy exchange glare and we both got the feeling omg?what's this? She really left her phone with us eh! Should we just take her phone and run away? HAHAHAHAHA. So shocking can! But we ended up continue to talk and ignore the phone, after awhile, the girl came back and asked if she can sit down with us, well, since there's a empty seat of course she can sit right? So 3 of us were sitting there, looking awkward because she kinda interrupt us talking and we have nothing to talk to her. But suddenly she started to tell us she will be leaving shortly after her phone is half charged, she just got shocked when her phone dead on her and she's waiting for her bf and she's shopping for a present for her friend. Then she continue talking to us and asked if we were local, without thinking I replied yes while xy said no. LOL, I almost forgot I'm a Malaysian with PR. Because whenever I said I'm not a local, people will assume you're a total foreigner which I'm not cause I have Singapore's blue IC too. But I'm not a total local because if I said I am, then they will asked you which school you're from, uh oh, I'm from a Malaysia college and high school.
So complicated and confusing, I don't even know when I should say I'm a local or when I should not. Anyway, before she leave, she told us she's 17 when she kinda look older than both of us. MY GOD. Make up can really change a girl! Seriously only in Singapore where people can trust their belongings with strangers and strangers will not run away with the belongings. An iphone eh, can you imagine someone just walked over to you and trust you with her iphone, seeing you're using a iphone 4 and know you won't be interested in her iphone3 which look kinda dying soon. And the weird part is she even sit down and start a conversation with you like you're her friend. Of course we thought of letting her have our table while we change another table but she stopped us saying she will leave soon. We guess that's because she's alone and she didn't buy any of Starbucks's stuffs so she's worried she might get shoo out thus she's sticking with us. Meh?

Friday, went to Jurong Medical for my second eyes appointment. Reached there at 10 plus and they checked my eye vision again (the usual) and I realised my left eye is getting better and get to see much clearer. After that, they make me wait for my turn for another test, this is to test my side vision. So after waiting for a while (around 15 minutes?), I went into a dim room and sat in front of a weird device with a chin-sit (make this up myself, not sure if you understand) and a bowl like thingy in front of me with the depth facing me. You get what I'm trying to say? Is something like the contact lens shape but is the size bigger than your whole face multiply by 5? A very big bowl facing you with 4 tiny, little yellow lights blinking like a diamond shape and there's a blank dot in the middle. So the nurse or doctor, don't know which since she's wearing a white robe I shall assume she's the doc but she don't look professional though, handed me a small 'mouse' with only 1 button for me to press and call me to place my eye on the chin-sit. But before that, she have to block my right eye with a bandage or something. Then after placing my chin and have my right eye covered, she let me hold on the 'mouse' and call me to look at the yellow dots forming a diamond shape and I have to press the mouse if I see there's a white light blinking in the middle. The white light will flash fainter and fainter, I guess this is to test my 'center' vision. Then after few blinks, the doc changed from right eye to my left and test my right eye's vision with my left eye covered. After that, the doc said we're going to do the side vision test now, this will take quite some time so bear with it ok? As if I can say, NO! AND i'M GOING TO LEAVE THIS ROOM IN THIS INSTANT! LOL! Just being lame, I know. So this time with my left eye covered, I look into the bowl and this time I see only a single yellow light in the middle, not flashing but shining constantly. She said there's going to be a white light appearing anywhere in the bowl, if I can see that, press the mouse, while looking at the yellow light all the way throughout the test. For each eye, 5 minutes. Seriously during halfway of the test, my eye really feel so dried and sore due to constantly have to focus on the yellow light and still have to spare some vision 'searching' if there's any white light appearing ANYWHERE in the bowl. After both eyes were done, she call me to wait outside and rest my eyes because they will definitely hurts after this test. So I went out and waited again for my turn to see the doc. When it's my turn, I went in and the doc checked my eyes and the result is, I still have mild scratches and tiny scars on my eyes! WTF? Are you serious? O.O But my vision is definitely getting better and no cons for another week and continue the eye drops everyday. My third appointment will be next week Friday in the afternoon, so I can't go to work on Friday. So after the second appointment, I went home and nap for awhile before going work at 2pm.

Today
I'm blogging now and I slept rather late last night, around 3am because I'm watching a new kdrama, BIG. What a weird name and after watching 11 episodes, I still don't get where the hell they get the name from. LOL. But this is seriously a addicting drama because everyone look so pretty and hot! There's Suzy, Lee Min Jung and both the guys are really hotttt! Don't remember their name though. Anyway I'm done with updating, so bye! I gonna continue my drama now.

PS: I dream about the 9 of us going Korea, the usual clique and in the end I ended up shopping with only 1 of them,
 I guess I really watched too much kdrama lately and been working so much till my mind want to escape and wish for a holiday.

Jurong Medical check-up.

So on July 11, which is also meichyi's birthday, I went to Jurong Medical Centre (JMC) to check my eyes with carmen, who came to Singapore to celebrate meichyi's birthday with her. She's one of meichyi's friend I really, really like. She's friendly, mature and funny.

Anyway, when she know I'm going alone to check my eyes, she said she can accompany me and we go together. JMC is really near my place but we still reach there later than the time they want me to be there. So I'm supposed to be there at 10.15am but we ended up reaching around 10.25. Is my first time there so when we enter the building we look quite lost but lucky they have really friendly staff/nurse/receptionist, who immediately approach us and ask is it our first time here and where we want to go. So I politely showed her my letter of referral and tell her I'm here for my eyes check up. She told me the directions and I have to queue and wait for my turn to register. Mum told me the whole check up process won't be long since I've made the appointment with them. But NO! The whole check up and to purchase the eye drops took almost 2 and a half hours! ZZzz ...

Before the doc examine my eyes, a nurse called me to check my eye power and test my eye pressure. This is the first time getting the eye pressure test, super irritating can. Remember the device/machine where you have to place your chin on the bowl-like-thingy and you'll see is a road/path and there's a red balloon at the far end? After resist the urge to blink for testing that, the nurse told me now she will test my eye pressure for me. I said okay and she shifted the bowl-like-thingy up higher till I only see a yellow dot blinking, then she told me there will be a gust of wind shooting at your eye try not to blink ok? She will need 3 recordings for each eye. MY GOD! She tested my right eye first and seriously the wind is no joke, is so strong that you will close your eye! Not just blink but close. Because the first wind came so unexpectedly I even jump up a little in shock. After that I really tried to open and stare at the yellow dot which doesn't help because the blinking dot makes me feel like blinking my eye too. So after several tries, I finally got 3 records for my right eye. The left eye is a total nightmare. Can't even open fully after the first gust of wind hit my eye. The nurse is really friendly and kind because I was so nervous since I'm making her work harder for her with all the blinking and tearing (due to dryness I suppose), she even comfort me saying is okay, let's not stress your eye, even she only had 1 recording for my left eye and we even have to stop for awhile because I really can't open my left eye. Anyway, she say both eyes perform well under the pressure test which means all is okay. Lucky!! So after that, we have to wait for my turn to check my eyes by the eye specialist. When it's my turn I went in alone, and carmen waiting for me outside, the doc ask me what's wrong with my eyes so I explained all over again from how I realised I can't see clearly and the amount of time I make my spec and how long I've been wearing contacts and for how long for each day. After that, the nurse off the light and the doc use some lightning and flash it in my eye. He's a really young and kinda good looking doc, too bad, he's quite harsh and impatient. Well anyway, next the nurse came in and say she's gonna put some eye drops in my eyes to dilute my eyes. Don't really understand what dilute my eyes means and why but she say I'm going to get blurry vision for 5-6 hours. Then she starts to put the eye drops in my eyes and she said they will get back to me later and I got shoo-ed out. After those drops i really can't see clearly, can't even see messages on my iphone and when I wipe away the remainder of the drops from my eyes, the tissue turned yellow! That's my first time trying out yellowish eye drops. HAHAHAHAHA. So after waiting for a long while outside, I got called in again and this time the doc used another type of light on my eyes, from far is yellow in color, but when the lights shine into my eye, I saw it in blur color in a scanning motion like from your right end of your eye to the left. Super cool can! So after another series of checks, the doc explained to me that my blur vision is due to my over dehydrated eyes, the left eye worst than my right. He said just like lips when they're dry, they will crack and that's somehow similar to the condition of my eyes, they got so dry that the surface become uneven and when I wear cons my eyes will turn red. So I'll have to wait for them to get fully heal before I can test my eyes power again and make a new specs. So I asked how long will it takes for them to heal, he replied 1 week. Whoa! That's like super fast. LOL. But he had to gave me antibiotics for my left eye, artificial tears for both of my eyes and eye gel for both eyes before I sleep every night. I'll have to go back this Friday again. I guess he need check if my eyes whether they become better or not.

So now I have to remember the time for both the antibiotics and artificial tears because for the antibiotics is for the left eye only and is needed 4 times a day while the artificial tears is for both eyes every 3 hours. Is really troublesome having to put eye drops when I'm working because I always miss the exact time and after that when I talk to customers my eyes look so teary. HAHAHA. But is really very comfortable for my eyes and sometimes my eyes will still feel dry so now I wonder how I previously survive without eye drops and still wear cons.

After leaving JMC, me and carmen went to town to change the size of a top she bought for her uncle the day before. We went cold storage because she wants to buy the golden oreo (Malaysia don't have) back to eat. Then we went back JP to meet meichyi since she just dismissed from school and they're going to meet meichyi's friend for the birthday dinner later.

So that's the end of my day and my off day. :/ I'll update again for my day off yesterday later cause my eyes need to leave the com for a moment. Need plenty of rest. Byyyeeee, see you later, I hope!

Time flies.

So July came and half of the year officially gone. I wonder if the world is gonna end at December or that's just some rumors to remind us that we don't have all the time to waste and idle around. So we have to cherish all the things we have and enjoy our life which I'm trying everyday now. Practicing the secret whenever I feel good and hope that will attract more good to my life. Even when sometimes unexpectedly bad happened, I'll try to think of it in another point of view and try to see the good in it.


This is gonna be a short update, cause I'm addicted to The Rooftop Prince at the moment. Damn hilarious can. Furthermore there's Lee Min Ho in it!! He's the one wearing green on top. Love him after watching him in the Moon-Sun. 

So yah, I'm enjoying my day off again. Wake at 8.30am don't know for what, must be too 'excited' because there's no need for work. Initially I'm off till Thursday because Wednesday is meichyi's birthday and I need to check my eyes at the Jurong Medical Centre in the morning. But after realising I have a straight 3 days off, Karen asked if I can come work on Tuesday or not. Since I have no reason to say no, I'll have to work tomorrow and Wednesday off. 

Felt like going back Malaysia to meet my friends. But no one seem to have time to plan anything so I guess that will take some time. Sigh. 

Okay, done updating. Pray my eyes gonna be in perfect condition. 

PS: I miss talking to you every night.

Finally I'm free to update!

Been working almost everyday, else going out. Felt so fucking tired now. Gonna stay home and watch drama and slack all day tomorrow to enjoy my day off. Can't even remember when was the last time I blogged, was it on the day I went out with xianwen? Should be on her birthday. So is almost 1 week since I last blogged. Okay, shall blog some details now. (:

Let's start with updating about xianwen's birthday brunch! Here's the pics!!

Love my hairband soooooo much but now with extreme short hair I'll need some time before I can start wearing it again. :x (btw, it's from Esprit!)
She didn't know I'm looking at her with that expression till she saw our pic. HAHAHAHA. Hilarious much!

outfits of the day.
I looked so lady can! (Did you realised my hairband's gone? Cause it keep slipping down when I'm eating so I remove it!)
I don't usually add milk to my tea but I add in just for the sake of pretty pic! There's only 1 chance in taking this. *try my best to look sophisticated.
Fucking short hair. 
So after working full days on both Thursday and Friday, we went to Holland Village on Friday night to kinda have a farewell 'party' for Aaron and Jennifer. Sigh, seriously I miss them both now, they got transferred into other outlet yesterday. Anyway, after drinking Sex on the bench which is suppose to be a minor alcoholic drink, we ordered a don't know what shot (pure white drink and must hit it on the table with a cover preventing the drink from spilling, before drinking it down in 1 shot, know what is it?). Seriously that's the strongest alcoholic drink I have ever drink. Felt that burning sensation when it passes down my throat. After that I felt so hot and when I stand up I think I felt a bit dizzy and the tables start to spin. After 2am when they closed, we walk down the street and start taking pictures with Jennifer, Janice, Suz and Oxx. Gave Jennifer a MAC bloody red lipstick. Jennifer didn't think that's red enough though. So after all the hugs and kisses (yes, we kissed), reached home at 3.30am. Crazy ttm! Had to cancel my tuition later at 9am cause I'm sure even without hang over I won't be able to make it through the whole 2 hours and I'm working at 2pm later at Esprit again. The tuition pay wasn't even enough to tempt me to tuition. So I'm getting my pay this coming Saturday. HAHAHAHA.

My Sex on the bench at Three Crowns.
I look so ROUND. Eileen, Janice, Aaron, Jennifer and Karen.

Jennifer. <3
So after working from 2-10 on Saturday and Sunday, had a day off on Monday which was yesterday. Deliberately took a day off so I can meet my DE clique for BBQ at night at Peggy's place. But who know it started pouring after we try to start the fire. So 狼狈 with all the umbrellas trying to protect the fire in the pit. Lucky it didn't rain for long so after awhile we get to eat without the rain. Tried drinking Volka for the first time with green tea as a mixer but still end up getting all hot and red. Guess my blood circulation been working too well nowadays. HAHAHAHA. Went home around 11.30, my dad fetching me and xianwen back. After that have work today from 10-6. Thought I'm working full but think they change the schedule because Aaron and Jennifer left. After tomorrow, I'm working 3 days straight from 2-10. At least I get to sleep till 12pm everyday before getting ready for work. 

Bonding. Me likey.

So before I went Woodlands to meet up with them for the BBQ yesterday, went to Dhoby Ghaut with my sis to grab a late breakfast, well a brunch actually, to Aston where they serve really nice western cuisine only at affordable price! LOL. Sounds like some advertisement right? But seriously their mashed potato is heaven! The portion is not really big but both me and my sis didn't manage to finish up our food, I finish my mashed potato though! and forgo my chicken. HEH. I'm not much of a chicken lover so clearly the mashed potato is my first priority.

Aston's black pepper chicken with mashed potato and onion rings as side dishes.
Phew, finally done, hope I didn't miss out anything. Hate to add on something when I published. Bye readers.

PS: I'm afraid I can't differentiate between dreams and reality anymore.
