Hair Extensions!

Last week I did my first ever hair extensions at milly's! The whole process was done without any hassle or discomfort. I was initially worried about the maintenance especially when it comes to washing them. It's been a week, my hair's still in great condition and thanks to milly's staff who gave me useful tips on how to take care of my hair!

I love Vintage colors.

Aloha!
It's a cloudy, lazy Monday as i laze around at home.
I am on mc today cuz of the stomach cramps that will occur every month without fail, and besides, i was feeling really worn out and tired from working 2 weekends in a row EVERY WEEK. SO! I declare to myself that i should take a break. This job is really taking a toll on me but i shall just refrain from going on repeating the same old grumbles. This is supposed to be a happy blog!

As i was being too free at home, I decided to 'spring-clean' my little blog and change a new look. Actually there's not much difference with the layout, I only changed the background and new header image. I love vintage pictures. Their colors are so beautiful!

Few weeks ago, i attended this workshop organized by company and it was about understanding heart disease and other common health problems among Singaporeans. Initially I thought the workshop must be some boring shit talking about all the medical terms and stuff but surprisingly, I enjoyed the 4 hours workshop and came out with new thoughts and perspectives. The doctor was talking about how to lead life with an open heart, i.e. not taking setbacks too hard and move on because life still goes on no matter what. He kept stressing about this as STRESS is one of the major factor that leads to heart problems. He says we shouldn't push ourselves too hard, shouldn't wish for too many things. The more we wish, the more we demand, the more stress we build upon ourselves. Which is so true that I totally agree with him yet it is so hard to achieve. It is very easy to say "I shall not wish for a better job, better pay, nicer shoes, bags, etc and shall be happy with what I have." How many people can actually do that in reality? Life is tough but we just have to keep moving forward. I need more positive thinking! :)

Edneth, our little 'brother' at work asked me what are the things do i look for in a boyfriend. This question left me thinking for quite awhile because it's been awhile since I last thought about this. And reading Dada's entry on top 5 major-offs in a guy gave me some 'inspiration'. So, since I am darn free lazing at home today, I came up with the following DONTs for a date (no boyfriend yet, so can't write about it).

A date should NOT:
1. Be stingy.
I cannot stand stingy men. I cannot stand men who expect ladies to pick the tab without offering to pay. I'm not saying that men should always pick the tab. Sometimes I do take the bill but I cannot tolerate men who act blur and take ages to pull out their wallet when the waiter is there waiting. The worst is the guy to make stupid comment like, "Oh, enough or not?" right after I paid for it. I'm sorry but I will be so turned off instantly I'd feel like going home that very minute. The point is, - if you don't want to pay, at least pretend to take out your wallet faster la. Tsk!

2. Be selfish.
I cannot stand men who don't give a thought for the others. Like insisting to watch movie A while I've already expressed no interest, or going for restaurant A when I would gladly prefer restaurant B. Everything is to his likes only without seeking my opinion. Aye, if you can't accept opinions and insist to go your own way, maybe you can bring your maid out for dates in future.

3. Be too full of himself.
I once had a date who'd tell me how gorgeous he is at his age, how women would throw themselves at him in clubs and offer their numbers. Seriously, are you expecting me to lick your boots and worship you like the others too? You should just go and find those who are willing to do that and boost your silly ego.

4. Be too introvert.
You can't expect me to do the talking whole night while you are there sitting quietly and not contributing. Conversation is a TWO-WAY flow. If you can't respond or offer to respond, we should just chat in msn instead of meeting face to face. (on the other hand, i hate msn too as i can't stand the windows popping up non-stop from people whom i don't feel like talking to.)

5. Skip wearing cologne.
I am very particular about how men present themselves. And especially whether do they wear cologne. I'd always find men who wears (nice) cologne attractive and sexy.

Okay, this should be it for now.
Disclaimer: Above mentioned points are all my personal preferences with no intention to flame or offend anyone. (If you find yourself belong in any of the above, you'd prolly understand why I hadn't been talking to you. Haha)

Oh, another big news to announce - our dear J YELLOWACE is getting engaged!

我終於可以畢業了!

After one painful month of waiting and anticipation,
My final year exam results were released yesterday noon.
I was having butterflies in my stomach and my palms were sweating
as I was very afraid to check the results.
As the file began loading, my heart was pumping so fast and i couldn't
get my eyes off the monitor, praying that I won't faint due to any grades lower than 'D'.

Then i saw this!
N219

I PASSED ALL MODULES!
I CAN FINALLY GRADUATE!
I CAN FINALLY BADE GOODBYE TO SIM!
I CAN FINALLY BE FREE OF LECTURES, SEMINARS, ASSIGNMENTS, EXAMS!
I CAN FINALLY BURN THE BOOKS AND NOTES AWAY!


I was on cloud nine for the rest of the day,
eager to share the news with people around me.
My colleagues must be wondering what happened cuz
I was so happy I couldn't stop smiling!
Called mum to inform her and she was of cuz, very happy too!
:) :) :)

Three years of hard work had finally paid off.
I am very proud of myself too to be able to survive this part-time degree course
and struggle for my sales at work.
My uni results were so much better than what i fared for my diploma.
(spotted more As! Hehe!)

Another achievement in my life!

*

Just got back from sales meeting,
the question that was probed by Boss hit a note in my head.
I don't want to regret the change either.
I want to try harder and show results.
I want to be in the group that shines!

*

I hate to be stood up and treated for granted time and again.
I understand everyone has our own commitments.
But do understand all I have now are friends for company.

*

Now i need to find new activity to occupy my free time.
Life feels rather empty and bored now that I have nothing
to do after work.
But I shall just enjoy it for now!

Have finalized the air tickets to U.S.A last week.
Two more months to go and I really can't wait!
Can't wait to see Ting, Kwang and Yvonne again at NYC!

That's quite a mouthful of updates for a day.
Till more good news to share! :)

Girl Power!

One customer helped me did a numerology session
the other day at branch while i was doing a presentation halfway.
Numerology is like tarot reading, except that they
uses your date of birth to calculate details about your character and
other stuff too.

I was stunned and shocked as she was telling me
the things about my character, relationship, career, health.
Everything were RIGHT.
It's so spooky but it sparked an interest in me to learn
about numerology too! :wink:

*

Last week, it was partying once again with Coccomomo and
my dear colleagues from new branch!
I also have a specific criteria for clubing:

1) Great company
2) Good music that can get u into the mood to dance
3) BOOZE!
I can't dance without drinking (not alot) but it just don't feel right!

Still a Lost Sheep.

Someone who is super successful and an inspiring role model told me:
"You must be happy.
Time is the most expensive thing in the world that you can't buy."
Happiness to me, is priceless.

These words felt like an awakening call for me to wake up
and stop dreaming of the perfect future that I had been looking for since young
unless i do something about it.
I had been thinking about the question that was being asked
and I had been seeking for an answer throughout the years.
I know it's time that I do something about it before time catches up.

I really hope to see my direction.
I really want to work towards my dream. (Which i believe I can!)
I want to be in a place where I can excel.

I have been unhappy for so long I think it's time for me
to make change happen instead of waiting for change.

I just read Spencer Johnson's 'The Present'.
This is his new motivation book after 'Who Moved My Cheese?'
The quotes in 'The Present' are very meaningful to me
and I am already trying to apply in my everyday life.

"Even in the Most Difficult Situations,
When you focus on what is Right in the present moment,
It makes you happier, today.

And it gives you the needed energy and confidence to
deal with what is wrong."


"When you live and work with purpose,
And respond to what is important today,
You are more able to lead, manage, support, befriend and love."
