Online Stores with...

everyone i know seems to be having some online store...

whether is it:

JA or PZ or Cherie

and me?

i'm on the other end... while they earn money, i'm on the spend money end...

and the following are nice online stores that i found at random:

delicious cakes or pretty cosmetics or interesting clothings or contacts.

i'm really soooooo temped to buy them. =(

I just could not resist....

Yes.

I gave in to the temptation once AGAIN.

I went for........ a HAIR CUT when I told myself that I actually wanna leave longer hair for once. But alas.... I've already chopped off my hair. Too late for any regrets now.

Oh ok... not that it's like I cut armani or something, but well.... This just once again brings me further away from getting the lady-like long hair that I desire... *heeee*

Anyway, it was really rather random that I ended up cutting my hair. I was initially supposed to meet a member for dinner when he suddenly had to cancel it. And so left with nothing to do, I felt so lost that I'm free on a Tues. My other attempts to find things to do or people to meet all came to naught... UNTIL. I remembered that I had "wanted" to cut my hair for the longest time!!!

Cos my ends were really breaking quite badly. And it's quite scary to see them breaking apart like they are some thread from your clothes. And so I called my usual hair dresser thinking of just going for a trim. But all the hair stylist were already going home soon, and so silly me made an appointment with them the next day, forgetting that I had already arranged to meet JD. Immediately after hanging the phone, I realised my foolishness. I was supposed to find something to do on TUES, not WED! *oh man* Sometimes, I really wonder if my brain is working...

And so I just went online and typed in the words "hair salon singapore" when I saw the Monsoon site. Thinking nothing of it, I just clicked and followed the link in. And I realised that it's really not as expensive as I thought as a hair cut plus wash by their senior hair stylist is only $21 at their Marina Square branch. So I just gave them a call, and soon I was only my way there.

Business at MS was really quite slow. Not just their shop. There was only like 5 other customers there at about 8pm. And I was led to this really young looking guy. Some other burly-looking guy washed my hair for me while I sat there waiting for my turn for the trim. The senior hair stylist that cut my hair looks really young... At least I'm quite sure he's younger than me. And strangely to start off small talk, he actually asked me how old I was... *sigh* I refused to answer him! *bleah*

He was dressed really stylo, with earrings and a good fashion sense minus the feminine gestures of some others in the same line. In fact, I would say he's quite good-looking! =)

Anyway, his constant chatter must have gotten into my head. When asking me how much to cut, I told him 2inches when I was only prepared to part with 1 to begin with. He gave me a face at that and asked me why cut so little. But trust me, more than 2inches was taken off. For some strange reason, he guessed that I was an accountant! *oh man.... will someone please enlighten me on how to rid that aura if I do carry one?*

Much of my hair behind was chopped off. I'm really glad about parting with my brittle ends but still... He decided to thicken my fringe too. And initially when he randomly just cut it off just above my eyes, I exclaimed, "Oh dear... I think I look like a dog!" And then I thought to myself, oh man.... I just insulted him... But he was really quite cool about it, and said, "well, that's what you say, not me ah... if you think the hair looks like dog fur, then wat about the face?"

*Sab gives him the evil eye*

Not really quite liking the idea that I need to maintain my fringe, I asked him to cut it as short as possible. So each time he asked if it's ok, I will ask him to make it shorter. UNTIL a certain point where he just paused and stared at me.

Sab: eh... is this the shortest that my fringe can go without making myself look silly?
Him: YES!!! Why do you want it so short anyway?
Sab: so that I do not need to cut it so often? =)
Him: Then why dun you just shave it off?

*Sab give him another evil eye... while thinking "well, if it's in fashion and I look nice in it I would do that actually...*

And so.... Sab is once again with shorter hair than wat she wanted. PLUS lots of people including the hair stylist thinks that I now look Jap, cuter, younger and nicer! Which actually... I only agree with the younger part....

You'll understand what I mean when you see me. He says when I went in, he thought I was a Uni fresh grad trying to look for a job. And initially I wanted to pay by Nets... Until I decided that perhaps I should pay by credit else I would need to leave my seat in the midst of the cutting to key in my pin. And so using the credit gave myself away that I'm not THAT young anymore... Ah well....

That place is really not bad. LOTS of people have already asked me where I cut my hair at today. PLUS it's really not so ex and he's really quite cute, tries hard to chat with you by finding common grounds like, "oh you're a Cantonese? So am I" or "my bro's an accountant too" or "all biz execs are the same, all too busy to cut hair" and many more...

*hahahaha*

Look no further. It's here... =)

LC & Somu are soooooooooo nice!!! =)

I had free breakfast yesterday and a free lunch today!

LC sent her daughter to school and when she passed by a coffee shop, she decided to buy breakfast for ALL of us! There's more than 20 of us in both departments... And she sms all of us from the Finance and then emailed to all the others from Settlement.

She is just SO NICE!!!

Somu got his maid to cook chicken bryani for all of us today! So so so so nice.... Plus black pepper chicken and SL prepared jelly...

*yummy*

Think I better curb my eating from now onwards... =(

Potent Coffee

If you are an avid coffee drinker and dare to say that all coffees out there does not have any caffeine effects on you - think again.


On sat I was out with a few of my members and when we grew weary from walking, we decided to talk a seat at J.Co.

It was really a nice and cosy place. Sitting there makes you want to fall asleep almost instantly as the lights are dim and chairs are soft. Not thinking that this place is any different from the rest of the coffee places that I go to, I ordered my usual drink. Coffee-based plus chocolate drink.

Feeling rather tired, we all left that place close to 11pm. I was watching tv when suddenly my member called me and I spoke to that person till slightly after 2am. Channel U was already playing the national anthem. So I told myself that I better get some sleep cos I needed to wake up at 630am the same morning. Had arranged to meet another of my member at 845am at Expo.

I said my usual, turned off the lights and went to sleep.

But. I just couldn't. For some reason, I was just feeling so awake and alert. I thought it was because I was still thinking about my earlier conversation and what I had wanted to do. But no matter how hard I tried, I just could not get to sleep. I was there tossing and turning until I dunno when. But the last I registered time was around 430am.

I manged to wake up at 630am. And I thought to myself... What happened man... How come I couldn't sleep???? And it was then that I remembered that I drank coffee! I'm quite a coffee drinker. Not that I cannot live without it, but caffeine has lost it's effect on me since I was 16. And thanks to LC, I drink almost a cup from Mon-Fri daily. But that drink from J Co. was really POTENT man!

I was so afraid that I would fall asleep during service. But I was really wide awake. My 2 other members that drank coffee-based drink could not sleep also! 1 fell asleep at 3plus and the other only fell asleep at 6plus... The effects only worn out for me at 11plus pm the following NIGHT.

So if you're looking for a boost that will last close to 24hrs. Look no further. It's here.

no matter how much water i drink, i'm still feeling dehydrated...

my lips are still cracking and my ulcer is still hurting! =(

but i thank God that mine is not as bad as MY's one. his ulcer is like 1.5cm long lo! and it had a depression like a drain also. yucks... must hurt like crazy man.

*shudder at the thought of it*

though my throat is starting to feel like it's getting sore too....

*sigh*

DW had to purposefully msn me to say that he likes the photo that we took together cos he looks very slim next to me...

evil man... :(

Photos from Ravyn... Ballroom Dancing event

Some other photos I found from his Multiply Site:

Busy at work... Somehow my work position is always the same...

My dear Peilu & I

Donny: Let's see if my face is fat. Oh nice... My face in photos is usually fat, except when it's next to Sab...

Sab: Can you just go away?!?!?!

This bunch of people had time to take photos as there were no one else coming to check their sitting arrangement. They were generally reluctant to go in as the rest were playing games... *hahahaa*

Thanks Ravyn for your photos! Now that I finally found them all on Multiply, I promise to never accuse you of being a psycho and just take photos and then keep them all on your computer's desktop. =)
