A another long tiring week with 2 days when I was left alone by myself to cover e whole section. Stress x 1000 and super tired. Only slept like 5-6hrs a day and that is so not enuff...
Slept at 3am last night which is considered very early for a Sat and woke up ard 11am. Not too bad, 7hrs of sleep! Maybe afternoon try to nap a little bah. Gotta prepare for the "war" at work yeah especially when things have been cocking up recently and its not even our fault. Sigh... I hate clearing shit...
Saw a Benefit Spree online and thinking if I wanna get "some kind-a gorgeous" foundation. I think its selling abt $60 at Tangs only... If I order online, its only $40.82, free shipping, only LHC and postage, should be less than $45. So tempted, how?!?!?!
The angel is saying: Cannot anyhow buy/shop anymore, waste money and you never even try the product yet.
The devil is saying: You wanted to get a foundation anyway, so you should try this. It sounds good and perfect right? Go ahead and get it.
Arghz... Fighting within myself... Shall think abt it first...

Tired and stressed out...
This week has been really busy and Friday was hectic, busy till can only eat lunch at 3pm. Didn't even have the time to go out for lunch and we ordered the Canadian 2-for-1 pizza. Ordered the beef pepperoni, Hawaiian pizza and Shepard's pie. The food was not too bad especially when you are super hungry.
Lucky there's the National Day PH on Thursday, if not can die loh. Usually, every year I will watch the NDP at home or at Hubby's place. But this year, somehow didn't really feel like watching it, no idea why. We went to watch the movie "881" instead at PS. It was pretty funny and touching towards the end. But felt the special effects towards the end was a little too drama and it would have been more touching without it. I mean a spikey bra with laser effects kindda weird on a
getai loh.
After the movie, told Hubby that I wanna go Paragon to do some shopping since I have 20% off voucher for my birthday. On the way there, we passed by Le Meridien and there was a new doughnut shop. Decided to grab some to eat since we didn't have lunch. Bought kaya, cream nut, choco crunch and I think coffee flavour one. I liked all except the coffee one. The doughnut was spongy and not as pily as those outside ones. Yum yum!
Went to Paragon and couldn't decide if I should get a dress that I kindda fancy cos its was $73. Tried on a few tops too and got a white one with a little bareback. As for the dress, told Hubby I wanna consider first. Kindda of in a "I wanna buy a dress" mood, wanna be more feminine maybe? LOL... Bought a wallet for Hubby's dad for his b-day cos it was the next day, a Renoma one. Sigh, kindda fear the NDP each year actually cos it will mean I'm gonna turn 1 yr older soon cos my b-day is 4 days after NDP.
Yesterday was my on day, but don't know why feel so super lazy at work, didn't feel like doing anything though my paperwork was piling high. Maybe really tired out and stressed out this week bah. After work, went Paragon with Hubby first to buy my dress. But I didn't get the dress I initially wanted cos on 2nd try, Hubby said its too short and not really nice. So got another one instead, a black and white flower print dress! It was $63 and after my 20% disocunt voucher, it was $50! Hehe, finally happy that I bought something... =p
Headed to Taka after shopping to meet Tzuen and Ken Meng for lunch at a Jap restaurant. Honestly when I saw the menu and the prices, I kindda almost felt that I didn't wanna eat, its so freaking ex... But maybe cos its the norm price and I happen to be really broke this mth, lol... Anyway, ordered a twin set to share with Hubby. It consists of pork fillet/loin, ebi, pumpkin, onion, salad and koroke. Honestly it was pretty good (at $40, it better had be). Crispy but not too oily on the outside, juciy inside, yum yum.
After lunch, went to watch Rush Hour 3 at The Cathay. Pretty ok lah, quite funny but action was kindda so-so only. Could see that Jackie Chan really getting on with age le, his face lotsa lines le... =x Went to Gramophone after movie ended and I bought 2 CDs, one by Li-Hom and another one is duets. I'm a sucker for love songs, lol. Headed to Tzuen's place after that and heard that fish was the main dish for dinner. The fishes were caught by Hubby, Tzuen and his dad when they went fishing the other day I think. We watched Iron Chef first since dinner wasn't ready yet and I fell asleep halfway through, too tired le. When I woke up, its was dinner time, just in time, hehe... 3 types of fish for dinner and it was yummy. I loved the potato sald the most, lol. Cos I love potatoes esp potato salad! Had some white wine too, nice nice. Hubby's face turned all red though, so cute... LOL...
Watched Ghost Rider after the dinner and booked tix for "Secret" for today to watch with Meilin. Haha, this week seems to be movie week! Ok, shall stop here le, super long blog for today and I gotta get ready for steamboat lunch at Golden Mile later! Early celebration of b-day with family, hehe. Ciao~

Get to know yourself better
Another test from Siong Chie's blog, this is pretty true for me... Wat do ya think?
http://www.quizbox.com/personality/test82.aspxYour view on yourself:You are intelligent, honest and sweet. You are friendly to everybody and don't like conflict. Because you're so cheerful and fun people are naturally attracted to you and like to talk to you.
The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:You are a true romantic. When you are in love, you will do anything and everything to keep your love true.
Your readiness to commit to a relationship:You prefer to get to know a person very well before deciding whether you will commit to the relationship.
The seriousness of your love:Your have very sensible tactics when approaching the opposite sex. In many ways people find your straightforwardness attractive, so you will find yourself with plenty of dates.
Your views on educationYou may not like to study but you have many practical ideas. You listen to your own instincts and tend to follow your heart, so you will probably end up with an unusual job.
The right job for you:You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life.
How do you view success:Success in your career is not the most important thing in life. You are content with what you have and think that being with someone you love is more than spending all of your precious time just working.
==> this part not so true, cos I'm such a workaholic, lol...What are you most afraid of:You are concerned about your image and the way others see you. This means that you try very hard to be accepted by other people. It's time for you to believe in who you are, not what you wear.
Who is your true self:You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve.
