Break
RoughCut and I took 1st & 2nd of Feb off ... we have no idea where we are going but we are going SOMEWHERE!!
I guess we just need a break from the hectic-ness at work.
PD? Sun and sea and beach - work on my tan, sleep on the beach, swim in the sea, read a good book or 2?
Melaka? lots of food, shopping, massages? sleeping late into the afternoon?
Awana Gentings? lazing by the pool, reading, sleeping, doing nothing in particular?
ummmm ... where?

Is it Christmas already?
I think this is the only year that Christmas doesn't feel like Christmas to me ...
When I was in school, I'm always on hols in Dec.
When I was in uni, I took the Australian programme - which means I was off mid Nov - Feb!
When I was in my previous working place, I dealt with the uni's existing students - they were all having hols in Dec, which means I was pretty free in Dec as well.Now I am in marketing, Dec is like TOTALLY peak. We start the peak season from mid Nov to mid Jan.
- It's Christmas eve today and I haven't finished my Christmas shopping!
- I haven't wrapped the pressies that I have (except for my folks' pressies which I made it a point to bring to the office and wrapped 'em at like 7:30am!)
- There's no Christmas decor at home - no tree, no wreaths, no lights
- There's no Christmas eve family dinner (cos loads of the family can't make it) but there's Christmas eve dinner with friends! hehehehe
Preceeding to Christmas eve, I was travelling for 6 days - roadshows/education fairs from one town to another up north. Then I came back in time for our Open Day on Sunday (which was a 12-hour working day). Following that has been 3 full days of talking nonstop for about 4 -6 hours a day. I've been so tired the last 3 days that I just head home after work. I can't even think about going to the gym cos I'm totally beat! Been sleeping at like 930 - 1030pm! that's very early for me!
I wonder if today will be as busy as the past few days... or are ppl all gone for their hols over the long w'end?
I'm off on Christmas Day but like usual I'm going to help the ASB out with their programme which means I'd be running around for a good 5-6 hours or so. Then hopefully I'd not be too tired to run over to MV to finish off my Christmas shopping.
Then I'd be working on the 26th before I get another day off on the 27th. haha ... and BOTH nights I have dinner planned. I think I'm going to be so poofed out on the week of the 28th! oh yeah ... there's dinner on the 28th as well!
But next week is looking a little better, cos I just need to work on New Year's day and I get 2nd - 4th of Jan off! Sleeping will be the main agenda of the day ... the rest of the agenda will involve napping, catnaps and more sleeping! Oh ... and maybe hanging out with Tweets since it is her b'day! hehehe
- It's Christmas eve today and I haven't finished my Christmas shopping!

Yesterday's Glitter
I have no idea how many times Astro has repeated this TVB serial but I've always enjoyed it. I remember watching it when we first got out VHS player ... one of the first few serials we watched back then.
But watching it now after so many years I see so many things I have not noticed before ... I guess watching it when one is 8 and watching it again when one is 35 really makes a difference.
I totally want a guy to woo and pursue me like the hero did for the heroine.
*dreams happy dreams*

Such is life ...
The fair was fun. I enjoyed the talking to the enquirers, helping them choose/decide on courses...
Talked so much that towards the end of the day I could hardly speak!
I was slurring...
I couldn't formulate sentences....
I couldn't even FIND the right words to use!
I was actually quite hopeless! hehehe ...
***************************
Need to prepare report for the fair ...
1. couldn't find the pendrive where I saved the report format
2. tried to retrieve it from gmail but stupid gmail won't load!
3. when I found my thumbdrive, I find that I DUNNO how to write the report!!
So I've basically done what I can and then leave it till I get back =)
****************************

LOLing whilst ZZzzzZZZZzing
I really had no idea what I dreamt about last night but I knew I was laughing happily and I knew I woke up cos I heard myself laughing away merrily ...
hehehe ... good thing I'm sleeping alone!
I don't want ppl to think that I'm crazy or something ...
and the worst part is that I cannot remember what it was all about! I would really like to know what made me every so happy last night ...
Off on a tangent:
I entered Garden's parking via a different entrance and I just couldn't find my way down to P3 ... try as I might I just couldn't find it! I was rounding and rounding P2 trying to find my way down for ever so long ...
I seem to only know ONE entrance and ONE exit from Gardens ...
I get lost in parkings ...
but thank God I found a parking bay in P2

The Princess & the Frog
I totally enjoyed the movie though the songs were a little 'not there' ...
Tweets and I actually CRIED! so TOUCHING!!!
So right now I am waiting for that Prince Charming to appear ...
*oh where, oh where art thou, O Prince Charming?*
The part where Prince Naveen found out that he loved Tiana...
The part where he made a ring for Tiana...
The part where he set up a candle light dinner to confess his love...
The part where he was willing to sacrifice himself to make Tiana's dream come true ...
Ahhhh ... so romantic!
*gonna sleep dreaming of my Prince Charming*

Expected yet Unexpected
It's really 'interesting' when I really don't want to do get involved , try my best not to get involved ... and when I cannot be involved anymore ... my heart breaks!
and that's how I'm feeling now ... a little heart broken, a little sad, a little unsettled, a little angry, a little frustrated ... -
A quiet day for a change
Life has been pretty hectic lately - not just my work life but my social life as well.
Maybe I am one of those people who need to be out of the house ...
Maybe I am just one of those people who can't stay put ...
So after a long hectic day at work I would be:
- in the gym and then go yumcha after
- meet up with friends for dinner, then a movie, and end it with another yumcha session
- meet up with friend for dinner, shopping and top that up with a yumcha session
Today was a total opposite ...
I woke up late.
Enjoyed a slow, unrushed brekkie.
Took my car for service.
Had my hair permed.
Went to the dentist (now I got clean polished teeth with 2 fillings done)
Then I was home FBing, playing games & watching tv
Then I went to clean my room, change my sheets, organise my books
Continue with FBing, playing games & watching tv...
I have to say life is good
Tomorrow & Sunday I'm working
The whole of next week I'd be traveling for roadshows up north ...
Life is indeed good

busy Busy BUSY
I enjoy being busy at work - time passes ever so quickly!
If the whole entire day is busy - lagi best
Yesterday was exactly like that ...
I came in early, went downstairs to put up extra Christmas Decorations
Then I came up to the office and started packing for the roadshows next week
Then I had to stop packing to go out for a lunch meeting
Then I came back from lunch and continued packing
Then I had to go for a impromptu presentation with the exco
Then I came back to the office in time to send the packages off with Kangaroo
Then I organised the fees - how many I needed and what needed photocopying
In the midst of that, the designer for the newsletter came and I had to go deal with it
Then it was back to organising fees ...
Then it was 6pm - time to leave for IOI to do ATTACK! =)
It was a fun day ...
I wish a majority of my days were like that ...
********************************
I was replying emails and updating my FB status STANDING UP!
Cos I didn't have a chair to sit on (it was filled with brochures!)
and I didn't have time to SIT!!
hahahahahahaa ... it was an exciting day!
