A rare sleepover

Nat n Jamie are staying over tonight for the first time...

N not being really a child-friendly house yet, the only thing to entertain them is the iPad!

So right nw, the 2 of them have highjacked my iPad n I'm left with my hp...

The stupid thing is tt I left my chargers in the car so batt life are limited on both my iPad n phone...

Now we're all chilling on the bed while they're watching some story being played out.. Quite comfy finally...

Only thing I wished was different wld be tt mr chia is here with me n not playing yet another sport...
Adding on 1 more thing he does without me.... :(

Shitty situation

At the in-laws place now...
Rushed over here after buying the bday cake!
Ended appt ard 10pm at wlds.. Thn chiong to four leaves in cwp..
Saw only 1 cake left in the showcase.. Everything else was cleared...

Then I was thinking shld I go elsewhere to try luck...
But suddenly decided if I dont ask I won't know...

So I asked the da Jie behind the counter if tt was the only cake left (it was a blueberry flavour I think)... N she said no, can choose...

Wah, almost cried in relief! Haha.. Ended up getting strawberry shortcake instead of the fruit cake I had in mind...
ohh ohh! V heng is tt they cld only collect cash n I luckily had $50 with me...

Thn frm there carried cake n rushed to hougang...

Ok, thn everything was ok until now.........
I need to change my pad!!!!

Feels super shitty when one needs to change n circumstances doesn't allow....
How sia... I need to leave nw but can't! :(

Shortfall update

It's THAT time of the year again... Sleepless nights... Anxious beating heart... Short temper... Tense muscles...

Nope. Not referring to F1. Thgh it IS the F1 weekend...
This year because of the huge shortfall, I'm pushing the stress foward... Because i dont want to clear it only end of nov!

So now, as of 19/9/14, I'm still short of ard $22,000 to MDC Gold.
ReAlly very kns.... Do until soooo many years still haven breakthrough to the superstar level! Really failure sia!

But after ytd's short motivation session, I'm gonna clear tt 22k! I've done more than tt before!!
N I can do it now!

Gonna need to command all my energy and be tip top for every appt!!!
Boss man says I need a big miracle to clear tt target... I say God is with me! He will help me clear!!!

Of cos I didn't say it verbally la... But I know deep within me that God will come through n help me. N for that, I am super grateful and thankful!

After the turkey trip, Im living my life in appreciation.
(and tiredness! Heheh)

But nonetheless, I WANT AND WILL CLEAR MY 22k by end of OCT 2014!!! God be bless me......

Go marry HIM!!!

When u think of fun, you think of HIM.. Why am I frustrated? Because he really acts like your WIFE! Yr male wife!

Bloody hell....

I knw it's stupid to be jealous abt this... But I just think he's bad company! I know you know yr limits but still....

I mean long run this isn't gonna be good right? All the things tt u find fun like fishing (seems like only fishing)... Oh wait! Now gt new thing... Soccer!

Ya.. Fishing n soccer all he's involved!
In fact u spend as much time with HIM as me! Go f*** him la! Why not... Since u both enjoy each other's company so much!!!

Ppl spoil their gf when they spend time together... YOU DON'T!!!

Unlike him, u don't always take the effort to come up with couple things to do.. Note tt Im aware tt u DO plan sometimes.. But most times u're just too lazy to do anything from the usual stuff!

Your only interests are fishing.. volleyball... Soccer... This is aside from work n sleep..

Sometimes even when we're together, it's like we're so distant.. In our own worlds..

Arghhh... Verbal diarrhoea over! Too fed up to type properly!

Day7 of the adventure in Turkey

Ok, so we left the city of Istanbul abt 3days back..
After seeing the town of cappadocia, i feel tt istanbul is more colourful n vibrant.. More of the shopping n cafe scene..

In comparison, cappadocia is more 'lax... Cool weather.. Endless horizon of valleys and open fields..
Oh n houseflies!! Tts the only thing tt has been pissing me off here...

The weather is super cooling (at this time of the year, according to the guide)

Though sunny, the wind is damn shiok.. Humidity is a bitch..
Hmmm, but then again when u feel all dried up like a raisin, a little humidity can be nice.

Oh, sudden end here.. Going down for a visit to a gem store..

Back... Haha.. Thght I won't buy anything.. Ended up buying a pendant with a necklace.. Spent abt US$300..

Amazing thing abt this pendant: it changes colour!! 5 different colours under different light.. Nice right..

Aiyah, anyway buy le.. I like.. Dont think abt the price can le.. Haha..

Ok, so we're leaving cappadocia soon and heading to Antalya.. Actually another small town for a break thn lunch..

So I'll end here for now... Will check back if I get some more free time n wifi.,, *happy happy*

TURKEY ADVENTURE (5-15th sept)

Very quickly, we move towards the ending of Day 4 of our Turkey trip! It's also the day of Gala Dinner!

The past few days were amazing!!! Like super!
A whole adventure of beautiful sights, deep history and colourful culture!

And this is just istanbul! Covered all the touristy areas like the Grand Bazaar, Spice Market and Blue Mosque.. Just to name a few...

Simply spectacular la! Words nt enough to describe it... Oh! The best so far wld be the Bosphorous Tour... A simply awesome 2hr yatch ride!!

So anyway, tonight is Gala Dinner nite! In the midst of preparation now.

Actually had this idea to blog when I was showering earlier because there's something I wanna note down for memory sake or rather for future reference!


Ok so thing is, tonight is the last night of what AIA technically pays for. If you're not doing a post extension, tmr is Go Home Day..

N in our grp, 2 of the mamas are going home. Honestly I'm nt sure of the ReAL reason why they're nt doing the extension.

They did say something abt their kid. Or how it's nw the school holidays this wk and all...

So here's the thing tt went thrgh my mind earlier:
Will I one day cut short a trip or change a major travel plan because of my kid (at this point of cos assuming tt I'll be blessed with at least 1 child.. :) ]?

N this was what went thrgh my mind next:
Yes, the child is important.. I'll miss out on precious time with him/her.. Time I'll never get back.

But so is a trip.
N something I learnt thrgh this trip is 'You better travel to as many places as possible before yr legs start to fail u.. N of cos before health becomes an issue too!'

I'll digress here a little to specify tt a trip is what I'm doing now.. Travel to multiple places or packing in sooo many things a day it becomes a TRIP.. But a vacation or holiday is one where u just nua n relax. Super little activity or just plain minimal..


Ok back to main point.. So this is the thing I want my future self to read if it ever comes to that situation...

When I have to choose between a trip n my child, choose the trip!
The child of cos has to be in the care of someone I trust.

Because one day when the kid is older, he'll take a trip without a second thought abt leaving YOU at home ALONE!!

Hahah... So yes, go travel. Widen my sights n knowledge and go home to be a better mum for my child with that!

I know it's so much easier to say tt now.. So I'm hoping I can have the heart to srill stick to this thought if one day I have to choose..

Ok, abrupt end cos I really gotta start on my makeup proper!

Here's to another fantastic 7 days ahead!! :)
