Superman Returns




Watched the premiere of Superman yesterday. Was quite disappointing. Or maybe I expected too much. Well, fortunately it was free tix...else I would be cursing and swearing liao! Haha...Anyway, go watch it only if you think you have spare cash or if you're simply just a Superman freak. Otherwise, just stay home and sleep. And I'm going to bed now...gota go back office at 2am and reach my Malaysia office by 3am. Ya, I know it's madness...no choice, gota do a location shoot that die-die also muz finish by 8am. Off to bed! Nitez...

The Platters - The Great Pretender

A Classic Song...dedicated to Pretenders...


Updates...

It's so nice being able to catch up with my sec. school classmates last Thursday. Mmm...guess our last gathering was probably 3 years ago. Gota thank the organiser, Mandy for making the effort in organising.


Yeah! This really looks like a class graduation foto!! Heehee



Actually this time round, the gathering is smaller as compared to the one we had 3 yrs back. It was like nearly full attendance then. Anyway, am glad that someone 'invented' Friendster , coz it's a good medium for us to contact one another and to be updated on each other's life despite our busy schedules. Most or infact all are doing well in terms of career or relationship. I'm happy for a few of them who'll be getting married soon. Also heard of some who are already married, on the way giving birth or is already a Daddy or Mummy. *sign*...Seems that age is catching up!...

Anyway, I finally get to sit down and had a good long talk with someone last night. Am glad that I can get it off my chest and clarify any doubts I had in me. And I became Aunt Agony last night. Despite being superly tired since I got home nearly 3am, I consoled one of my friends who had a quarrel with his gf...This poor boy really sounded so lost and kan-cheong...I know he really loves his girl a lot, otherwise he wouldn't be reacting in such manner. I didn't do much...just gave him some advice and a female point of view of what his girl is thinking....Yeah!! Women are complex....Guys just don't Get IT! Heehee.....Haiz...my friend mentioned that I'm good in consoling people...which I agree....Yet, I can't seemed to console myself and solve my own problems! Well, it's always the case anyway. *shrugs*....Rainy weather makes me depressed...Time for a Nap....Zzzzz.....Haiz...好闷的新期天!

The Dark Side of Human's Nature

There're so many things running through my head as am typing this blog entry. The truth hurts yet I long to know the truth...I don't like the feeling of being betrayed. Who likes to be betrayed anyway. All I can say is that all those political issues that's currently happening to me is indeed a very valuable learning experience. Here's a brief summary of what I've learnt recently:

Lesson No. 1: Don't ever trust anyone. You'll never know who's the good guy and who's the bad guy. You may just be stabbed and die wrongfully without knowing why.

Lesson No. 2: Treating people well does not equate to people being appreciative of you.

Lesson No. 3: 小人 are everywhere. Just gota be on your guard.

Lesson No. 4: Don't take things too hard and Never ever blame yourself in any event things go wrong, especially if you've not done anything against your conscience.

Lesson No. 5: You don't owe anyone a living.

Lesson No.6: If people are mean to you, you just have to be equally mean, if not, doubly mean.

Lesson No. 7: You can't please everyone and expect the whole world to like you. Just bear in mind, there're a lot of weirdos in this society. And yes, they live in their own damn bloody world!

Lesson No. 8: People tends to give you a different version/sides to their story. No point making any conculsion or analysis since you'll never be able to find out the real story/reason anyway.

Lesson No. 9: Watch your words and definately, putting on a stab-proof vest will be good.

Lesson No. 10: No matter how sucky the situation may be, life goes on!! It's just another part & parcel of life.

And not forgetting that people can be really shallow. Probably that's why some people can never succeed in whatever they do, coz they can never think far and see the bigger picture.

In life, people come and go. It's only who'll stay and make an impact in your life. Although these people did not really stay in my life (which I'm glad they didn't come to think of it), but they definately made an impact in my life. I would actually like to thank them for making me a stronger person.......Well, the more you want to get me down, all the more I'll survive. I may be wrong in my own judgement, but I know things are not as simple as what I thought to be. Anyway, all is not lost yet. Infact, I got a lot of people who actually gave me lotsa support, encouragement and advice during this period of time.

Oh well, it's a wake-up call to me not to be so naive and gullible in future.....

就是爱你




On a Boring Saturday afternoon, suddenly remembered this song...Probably that's what on my mind now...

Overshopped!! Dead Broke!

My blog title says it all!...Guess I was so deprived of shopping for the past few months and I'm just making it up now. And since now I do not have anyone to pamper me either, I shall pamper myself! Haha...Thus, I ended up buying 2 items from Coach and 2 pairs of Papillio! The best part, I just cleared off my credit card debts amounting to *gasp* $800!!...Ok, that was owed since Feb!....Can't blame me what! March I was in Bangkok and later on in Tokyo shopping my ass off! So it's not exactly that bad after all! *rolls eyes*....Anyway, back to my Coach. It was a good buy coz it was bought straight from US. I'm lucky to have my buddy whose colleagues fly over to US frequently for biz trips. Haha...really save a lot as compared to buying in Singapore ok! And the best part, some of the items are not being sold here!


I bought this but in very pale purple. I'm glad I bought that colour as here only sell the standard Black/Brown/Kaki Colour if I remember correctly.


This sling bag is not sold in Singapore either. I bought the black colour instead as it's more versatile in matching my outfits.


I've been aiming this pair of Papillio since Feb this year. But they just dun seemed to have my size everytime I go Wheellock! I guess it was pretty much fated coz later on, I was introduced to this Webby, where it sells all the Birkenstock and it's sister's brand, Papillio, Betula etc. And it's almost or 1/2 the price only!!! The only prob is that in order to save on the shipping cost, you'll have to order at least 5 pairs assuming each pair cost an average of SGD58+. So gota ask around and consolidate the orders. Infact, I just received my goods today and they're pretty efficient in processing the orders. My sis got the Cherry one, which is currently very "
in" lately!

Anyway, after all these damages done, I'm just gona stop shopping for the time being! *rolls eyes*....Ok, I reckoned that no one will believe me either! Muahahahaha....hey, come July and August, most of my weekends might be burnt again, so I'm just shopping in advance! Ya...I know it's a lame excuse! Heehee....anyway, shopping is also a good therapy to rid depression, stress and probably insomia?....And being superly free on weekends, I'll just indulge in shopping lor. But am gona start saving up now...I've got 4mths to do so, as I might be going away in Oct for a biz trip again. Yes, another round of severe damage to my pockets again! ^_^

Bad Day

My Fav Song Currently, coz it depicts how I feel everyday!...


Health & Beauty

Camomile Tea doesn't work on me! My dark eye circles is getting worst each day...just as I was losing hope of gaining back my well-deserved sleep, I chanced upon the Sleep Support By Fancl. It's not a medicated kinda pills. Generally, it helps to calm and relax the whole body and mind and just make you sleep.


It's more of a dietary supplement. Apparently, the Fancl person told me that one of the celebrities is also taking this to help her sleep! Haha...so I guess it should be still quite safe though. But gota avoid driving or engaging in hazardous work when taking this. I tried it last night. Hmm...not too sure izzit coz I'm tired as well, but it does work to a certain extend. I slept better all the way until 8am this morning when my sis dragged me to Cafe Cartel for breakfast! I was still feeling zombified all the way and I dropped dead on my bed the moment I went home after breakfast till nearly 3pm! And yes, the weather does play a part. So I finally get a pretty good sleep after soooo long! Still, my dark circles are still there. That's where I invested in Ettusais Undereye Cover!


This is quite different from the normal eye concealer as this is more of balancing the uneven skin tone under the eye area. Eye concealer is a tad too harsh for our delicate eye area, and in long term, fine lines will appear and it may clog the pores around our eye area as well. Actually, according to my sis's fren who's working in Estee Lauder, apparently Shu Umera's eye concealer is one of the best. I tried, but I dun really like it. Or rather, my dark cicles are just too serious that nothing seemed to work for me anyway! But then, Shu Umera Cleansing Oil is quite good, which I bought last week. Was actually recommended by my sis.



After washing, the face feels soft and moisturised. And the best part, it's easy to use, especially for lazy people like me! I also bought their Lolishine Reflects Lipstick in shade 923.


It looks something like this, but this is definately not Shade 923. Mine is more of the nude colour, which looks more natural on the lips with a little bit of shimmer.

I went to redo my hair as well. The previous colour was kinda too drying for my hair and people commented that I looked like Ah-lian. But I do like the hair colour as I felt that it brightens me up. Still, I guess it's time for a change. I have fringe and now, I think I looked like a *ahem* cheong early twenties gal even though I'm currently in my mid-20s!! *rolls eye* Haha

Come to think of it....this time round I spent quite a lot on Beauty products during this GSS. Did managed to grab some good buys on clothes though. But somehow, my current craze is now on skin care and make-up!

Anyway, hoped that my days of insomia, depression and sucky days will be gone soon. Oh, 1 more thing...really appreciate to those people who read my blog, then smsed/msned/tag on my tagboard to show their concern. I'm okay for now....maybe I just need time to fix those screwed up moments in my live. Well, I guess it's a part of learning and growing as well. In life, we fall...but we pick ourselves up and learn to walk again...cliche but well, it's a fact.

Insomia

Have been suffering from serious insomia for the past 2 - 3 months... so much so that I'm just a step away from the doctor to get sleeping pills! Yes! I AM that Desperate already!...But my sis and friends advised me not to, as they do not want me to be dependent on it in future. Just downed 2 cups of Camomile and Lavender Tea, supposdly to help destress/calm/relax a person's mind and prolly to get a better sleep. Oh well, I'm desperate...I'll try whatever that comes along. Don't ask me why I am stressed...reckoned that my brains is just filled with too much stuffs and it's just going haywire already! Anyway, wish me luck...hopefully I'll be able to sleep peacefully and soundly tonight. Nitez...
