sucky day

this day SUCKS! big time.

i think if anything else suay happens, i'll have to go for anger management classes. but not before i scream my heart out.

i can't believe i have to retype this whole entry again. spent like 45 min typing the 1st draft, and i dunno wat i did, but i just deleted everything i had typed in those 45 min and now i'm starting from scratch. ARGH! AAAAAAAAAAARGH!! no one else to blame. just stupid me. now that's exasperating.

planned to come office early today to do some work, so that i can go on leave in peace. but am in no mood to do anything now. so decided to lament here.

today is a sucky day. it started with a gut feeling that this day just isn't gonna be good...if u've watched the tennis movie wimbledon, u'd remember the part where kirsten dunst lost her match. for no reason, those scenes just popped up in my mind this morning. so that was my premonition.

then i got up and just when i was about to wash up, i saw something that reallie irked me. my contact lens case was placed vertically, and most of the solution had leaked as a result, which meant my contact lenses were not properly cleansed. i dunno who in my family did it; this wasn't the 1st time something like that had happened, which irritated me all the more, and feeling tired and grumpy early in the morning didn't help me feel better. so i started complaining to my mum. poor mum. she had to put up with my tantrums coz there was no one else at home.

what followed was a series of events that eventually led to me blowing up. 1st of all, my newly bought lcd tv's remote control spoilt a few days ago, and i had made an appointment for repairman to come today between 2 and 5pm, but realised yesterday i couldn't make it. so i had to call the service centre again, wait for recorded voice to redirect my call to an operator, and change the appointment. shall not go into details here coz it's boring. but the point is, sometimes such nitty gritty tedious errands get on my nerves coz they die die have to be done but when there're so many other things on my mind these little tasks are just...bleah. phlips better have a good reason as to why my new tv set has problems barely 1 month into use...if not...haven't decided wat i'll do but i'll definitely boycott all their products and never recommend them to anyone.

later on, while i was getting ready to go out, i realised snuggie had made a mess in my room. he had toppled my make up storage bags and caused them to be scattered on the floor. if u use makeup, u'd know how bad it is. esp for eyeshadow cakes, they break up when dropped. and if the container's fragile, it'll probably crack. and not only did he mess up my make up, he also pushed some other stuff off other surfaces in my room. but i didn't scold him coz it's not entirely the kitten's fault for being mischievous...he's still young and i haven't been a good mum to him, can't afford much time to accompany and play with him.

then some idiot had to press our door bell by mistake and got yuanyuan all excited, and he peed under the sofa in the living room. i noticed the yellow puddle and his guilty look as i was about to leave the house. mum got irritated by that too, and i offered to clean up the mess. just as i finished the first round of wiping up with toilet paper and mopping, and was on my way to wash the mop and come back for a 2nd round of mopping, mum thot i was done and made a comment,"huh? that's all? i clean lah." normally, i would ignore her and continue cleaning. but to the already angry me, the comment implied, "u can't do a good job cleaning", which made me a little more mad, but i didn't flare up. i just left the mop on the floor and replied, "ok u mop lor." think mum wasn't exactly pleased with my cold response, but she didn't say anything.

then just as i was about to step out of the house, mum said something which made me feel quite hurt. i was like, what?? i was irritated for a reason (or in this case, many small reasons), and yes i might have said some things that i shouldn't have on impulse, but i thought mum would understand. so we quarrelled. u know, as i'm recalling this incident, i'm actually laffing. HAHA. it reallie sounds hilarious now in retrospect. ultimately boliao. so mum, i'm sorrie. shouldn't have let my feelings go outta control.

thankfully, lunch was enjoyable. :)

but things didn't get much better after lunch. came to office and checked my work email...got an email which made me very sad. disappointed with myself and my performance and work in general. can't divulge much, but all i can say is, it's interesting how the human brain has both a penchant and a repulsion for negativities.

it's 3.37pm now. hope this day doesn't get any worse.

hope u have a good day. if not, take heart in the fact that u're not the only one. :)

New appliances for the not-so-new-already year

Check out my brand new super i-steamer! i can now steam my clothes efficiently AND professionally in a matter of minutes! amazing!

see? snuggie likes the i-steamer too! :)

here's another new appliance for the home! a philips lcd tv!

been a looooooooong long time since i last posted...apologies to all who visit regularly and were hoping to see some updates...been busy with work and taking care of snuggie and yuanyuan...i'm a working mum! wow...i feel so...grown up.

how was valentine's day? hope u had a happie one, whether u're single, attached or married. :)

had v-dae dinner at a turkish restaurant...would've enjoyed the ambience more if not for a very vocal child who kept screaming during his meal...felt kinda bad for his parents...i'd go mad if that's my kid!

speaking of kids, let me introduce u to my new baby!

ok it's not entirely MY baby...it's OUR baby as in everyone who contributed! thanks to all who made this possible...and thanks to all who came to support our launch party at j8! if u haven't gotten one, i strongly recommend it!! haha okok i hear u..."of course she say good la! she's one of the producers!" well, all i have to say is, it's not over the top fantastic, but it's sincere, simple, touching and u can definitely relate to at least one story. (music diary 3 audio book is out in all good cd stores.)

oh before i end, allow me to express my joy...Chelsea LOST to Middlesbrough 3-0!! WAHAHAHAHA...

ahem. ok. that's all for now.

旺旺!

Woof woof! it's the year of my favourite animal in the chinese zodiac! Doggie year! yippie!

On this very special occasion, my friends would like to say a little something:

Yep! enjoy fun times with your family and friends...and of course enjoy the ang baos...hee.

Long time no blog!

ooh...so many things have happened recently...so many things to blog abt...where should i begin?
snuggie's an actor! check him out on the set of 刑警二人组, a new channel 8 drama starring apple hong and qi yu wu!

snuggie was quite 难搞! kept wanting to run away...the playful boy just wanted to play/chew/scratch poor ah wu and apple...frightened them quite a bit! haha...ah wu's reaction was quite funny...at one point when snuggie broke free from apple's hold, he dashed away and told her "good luck!"

my pets are celebrities!! hee! yuanyuan's featured in today's Straits Times Urban..haven't seen it! wanna see it! i'm a proud 星妈!

did something unusual recently. something grown up. went to view a show house. haha...not that i can afford it, it was just for fun and out of curiosity. but wow, i wouldn't mind living in a place like that some day man. the place is called The Oasis, somewhere near aljunied. costs at least 1.5 million for the smallest unit. but boy oh boy was the show house impressive! there's the spacious and bright living room, nice and clean kitchen, a basement level which looks like a small studio apartment on it's own, a lavish master bedroom with a five-star hotel bathroom (the toilet bowl is so high-tech! got so many buttons! i think it can wash ur butt too!), another bedroom with an attached toilet, and my favourite was the attic! it's like a whole new world up there...i imagined myself living in the attic, the balcony with pretty pots of flowers and a small tea-for-2 table and chairs, a book shelf in one corner accompanied by a comfy couch, a play area for snuggie and yuanyuan...and my 4-post bed tucked in the corner furthest from the floor to ceiling windows, which will allow maximum privacy and yet a splendid view of the sunrise...oh and the kind property agent even suggested we can install a lift within the house, so that we won't have to climb flight after flight of stairs when moving within the house...aah...the wonders of luxury living...one day...one day...maybe i'll own a place like that. after viewing the smaller showhouse, we went to view the bigger one for comparison. it's crazy. i actually laughed out loud when i saw how huge the living room and master bedroom and attic were. it's just too ridiculously huge for me. not like i haven't seen houses of reallie rich ppl, it's just that when i imagine myself living in one, all that extravagance seems so ridiculous and crazy...

man u beat burton 5-0! and nistelrooy played no part in that victory! yay!!
