Faster than you can say, "Korean Drama Serials" and I'm hooked.
The current favourite slot every week nights at 2200 hrs is My Lovely Samsoon, which is shown on Channel U.
After having watched only 2 full episodes back to back, I am 100% hooked, ain't no doubt about it. The witty lines and the telegenic leads just reel the viewers to another escapism outlet. It also helps to have a funky theme track with really cool songs featured in every episode.
Watch the dramedy before it ends next Thursday. Another 5 episodes to go. You can bet your bottom dollar I'd be looking for the VCD to catch the earlier missed episodes !

Smiley faces all round
It is lunch time.
I am all alone in the office. BBS's on half day leave, JS's on medical leave, Ellen, R and Mr G are all out for their midday meal.
I am stoning in front of the computer, having the time of my life. Well, not exactly my life, of course. As you can see, I am rambling on.
I LOVE the term BREAKS !
*grins*

The kids going, "NO !"
I'm stuffed. Cake and ice creams and spaghetti and waffles and slurpee .... YUMS !
So I will soon have a nice refreshing shower. Then I'm going to vegetate my brain cells. By going to bed early that is. Loads of work to complete tomorrow.
Birthday girl is having a good time. Both my sisters and their hubbies dropped by. All in all, quite a night. :D

To a very special little person
It's Aaliyah's third birthday tomorrow. We will have cake and she will blow out the candles. All three of them. My sister will come over with the rest of her brood and my parents will smile benevolently as the kids tucked into the delicious food.
I will then be home and hand over the present to my lovely and absolutely favourite niece. She will tear into the wrapping and unearth ....
Tell me now, what should I get for a three year old little girl ?
Baby girl, your aunt loves you. Always know that when your chips are down or when you feel like no one understands nor care for you.
You are special, Aaliyah Shakira.
Happy Birthday !!!
My best wishes and prayers are forever with you.

Shop, shop, shop !
What a day ! What a night !
Let's just say, I had the best day in like so many months. As mentioned in the previous post, I started work early and office hours ended at half past midday. My plan was to go down to Holland V with my mom to scout around for an outfit to the Staff Dinner. Mom plead ill and so I went with Mother and Ian.
We had a blast ! Ian got him a couple of dressy shirts and Mother got her a pair of pants and skirt. Me ? I had the biggest haul ! A blowsy skirt for the dinner. Top it with a nice, white long-sleeved round necked and a jacket which was dark blue with white polka dots. Accessorised with lodestone and crystal blue beaded necklace and matching dangly earrings and my scruffy boots ! My pride and joy !
I also got me a couple of pairs of "home" shorts, work pants and get this, a pseudo afghan sweater. If I had been a little bit splashy, I would have gotten a red turtle-necked afghan sweater that just scream "Flashy!".
I had fun trying out the different skirts and dresses. Haha. To think I used to scoff at the very idea of wearing dresses. I was most definitely happy with the positive responses I received when I arrived at the restaurant with Y. You can say I was preening and loving the feel of the silky skirt on my bare legs. I think I might have been prancing about a little too much just to see the skirt move. Lovely.
The reason for the dressy affair was because I received my 5 year long service award. Haha. It's been 5 years since I started at SFMS as a lowly lab tech. Now look where I can be now. I am really thankful to my bosses for their confidence in my abilities. I didn't get to make a speech though there were a number of people whom I would thanked who had the presence of mind to allow me to grow. It was never easy but giving certain responsibilities can really test a person's mettle. I am glad I was able to provide a little help. :D
I know, I am writing a little too much for a really early morning post. I hope none of you had fallen asleep !
So anyways, I will try to get hold of some pix of earlier from R and R and link up here. Given the fact that I am rambling on now, I'd better sign off now. The effects of the walk from RELC to Forum is finally rearing its head, even after an extreme ice blended. I guess the adrenaline level is plummeting really fast and before I crash and bled out, Good night and Good luck !
Oh.
Happy Teacher's Day to all my teacher friends and colleagues. I hope you guys have had as much fun as I did this year ! *beams*

As time goes by
What else is new ? It's the start of the school holidays and I am in the office almost at the same time as during the Term.
"Why does she always do that ? Is she so hardworking ? Or is it because she's trying to put everyone down with her so-called punctuality ?"
Let me just be fair to everybody who is dying to know. I like to be in the office early. I guess I like the solitude of not being in the midst of all those daily chaos. It's perhaps a throwback of my lab days. Working in the labs by myself, alone but not lonely. I like the quiet, you might say. And so, I come in early to be by myself. Not just to impress my Bosses or sneer at others who have trouble with concept of punctuality.
I do have my bad moments. I am not perfect, you know. I do come in a little late sometimes and I feel a whole lot of guilt, even though I think it's not really justified. Well, rational thoughts don't figure when you just realised you missed the bus, no ?
And definitely a plus point in coming in early to work ? I don't have to jostle with the other people, who also happen start work at 9, on the public transport. No peak hour period to avoid, journey's a bliss. All of the one and a half of them to reach the office.
