I woke up at an unearthly hour at 8am this morning. Yes, on a Saturday. Anyway, I'm now watching the Project Runway (S5) marathon on Discovery and I have been doing so for the last 2 hours. It's really good (bitchy) stuff, continues all the way till evening, unfortch I'll be heading out in a couple of hours and before then, I'm hoping to sneak in some time for a nap.

Just ......AFTER I finish some outstanding work on my lappie cos I'm flying tomorrow morning and badly want to clear stuff. I know - I still have time to blog. haha, have to la, else I'm becoming a human robot. I even think I'm getting better at multitasking. I quite sucked at it to begin with. I could be talking to you and doing up a report but somehow after I say something to you, I end up typing that very sentence into the report. Go ahead and laugh.

Flying off for a short holiday tomorrow morning. Haven't packed. I really need to start. When I return next week, it's gonna be another WOAAH before the week ends without a warning again. Really fast. How can we change that?

And before I know it, I'll be on the US-bound flight to LA for a couple of days and San Francisco for another couple of days for work. Plus the many many many hours on air. I'll also be stopping over at Tokyo when I head there and Korea when I am on my way back. I just hope for a smooth trip, no hiccups at the meeting and event.

Okay, think I better get back to work. Hope everyone's doing great. Enjoy your upcoming weekend and I'll see ya all next week if I find time to blog.

I turn 23!

Sunday, September 20 2:39 AM

Firstly, a BIG thank you to everyone who have sent their birthday wishes, whether through facebook, sms, email, blog - I feel truly loved knowing you guys remembered. :) Thanks also for the gifts!!

So I turn 23!

It feels like only 2 years ago I was turning 18 followed by 21 not too long ago, how did time manage to pass so quickly? In any case, I don't feel any bit older at 23.

In fact, I am rather excited to be turning 23. You could say, life starts at 23 for me. Graduated, enjoying my job, people at home are doing great, starting my own family in a year's time, learning to be independent, all these lead to the excitement of turning a year old, a year wiser.

Anyway, for this year, I decided we shall celebrate it in a different way. It has always been heading down to hotels for buffet but I thought - why don't we have both food and fun? And tadah, the idea of K-Buffet came about. Hahaha

Plus, I've only been to karaokes with cousins and friends, seldom with family so this was an excellent opportunity to do so.

7 of us headed down to K-Box at Marina for 4 hours straight of buffet and singing! It was so very fun and enjoyable. I hope everyone enjoyed it too!

Some photos of the evening for your viewing pleasure!

Guess what's inside?

My 'birthday cakes' - baked by Alvin and Daphne. Thanks guys! =)

Anyway, it's a long weekend ahead so enjoy and sleep in late! That's exactly what I'm intending to do. Hee.. 1 more thing to be excited about turning 23 -counting down to my Bangkok holiday!!

Happppyy! Already looking forward to turning 24! Will probably be at my new house next year, can't wait!

XoXo

Hello, hello! It's been a while.

I've been so busy, haven't had time to blog and for the record, I MISS blogging! Did you guys miss me?? Hahaha

Right now I'm having a throbbing headache and as much as I think I should be sleeping, for some reason, I'm not.

Anyways!

I'm turning a grand ol' age of 23 this coming Saturday and I've already made plans to spend the day with my entire family and hubby, in a different style. I'm quite looking forward to it, will blog more (hopefully, with pictures!) after the event. :)

Lots of people asking me what I want for birthday. To be honest, nothing. 3 years ago, I would have come up with a long wishlist but fast forward to 2009, I think I have everything in my life now that I have always wished for, so keeping it this way would be the best gift. :)

Hari Raya's coming too.. it's coincidentally one day after my birthday. And that means, Public Holiday!! Whee!! PH on Monday is always good but first I need to survive this week. Haha, quite a lot of deliverables to go out by end of this week so it's a bit of a make-or-break. Krrrack.

I caught quite a bit of movies since I last updated - Time Traveller's Wife (must-watch!) , I Love You, Beth Cooper (funny!), Thirst (omg, please don't watch this!). I'm waiting for The Ugly Truth this weekend.

Looking forward to my Bangkok holiday in 2 weeks' time, followed by a trip to US for work. A bit of travelling coming up in the months ahead, so I hope I don't suffer from any jet lag or fatigue.

In other happy news, Kharina popped! She gave birth to a healthy baby boy! Happy and excited for her. Motherhood is such an amazing journey and I do hope to experience it one day. It's not a phase 'cos it never ends. I wish her and her family well and hope I get to see the cutie and mummy soon. :)

Wedding preps have slowed down a bit, now that the house and all has been settled, we want to take a bit of rest before embarking on the next step. Haha, we should be collecting our bands sometime next month too. That will also be the time when we have to look into the venues for our outdoor shoot.

Okay, that's a lot for now, given that I have almost nothing to start blogging with.

I really gotta sleep before the headache gets any worse.

Nights!
