Updates & updates..

I'm very touched by Hun's latest entry. In fact during our boyfriend/girlfriend's day, she used to tell me all those little details which was similar to her last entry. Of course the both of us were totally from different family background. So we just advice one another & ensured that we have to be strong no matter what happens. Although the details Hun posted were not published entirely, there's actually more to it & I believe if there's another incident to be trigger off, I can assure that she'll blast a few more.

Anyways I've been absent for nearly a month from this blog. Hun's been as pushy as always to ask me to blog but I've been as lazy as always which is a very poor reason. haha She even upload tons of pictures into my Mac just so that I can blog. She always noticed that unless I've got new shoes then only I'll blog 50% about it & the remaining 50% is usually daily life entries which after I see its a true. Haha. BUT!~ now I'm at Clementi & I'm not using my Mac cause I'm lazy. (as always) SO there'll be no pictures until I feel like I'm a bit hardworking.

First stop - Reservist!

It has been quite an exciting In-camp training so far in my 5 years of call up so far. Why I used the term exciting is because this is the first time I'm not been pressurized to meet their expectations. (reason is because I tore my ligament) Hence I'm more like a shadow to the platoon. As always, there's lots of laugh & talk cock sessions. I mean its once a year you get to meet your buddies so there's bound to have all these scandalous gossips, family stories, work issues, etc. The one popular topic in this In-camp was Cars. Almost everyone drove. When we had to go for "R&R" no one actually board the Tonner that was catered to us. I'm not sure when's my turn, lol. Anyway the training was quite slow pace but indeed very detail in every aspect. In fact there's a lot of training that actually has got something to do in the real world. So that summarize my 5th In-camp training, can't give too many details! haha

Secondly, I'd like to congratulate Hun! She truly deserved her new salary cap. In actual fact this is the only job that she has stayed the longest. Despite the hiccups at her working enviroment, I think she excelled well in handling her work matters. She has also reward almost everyone that has support her through her career starting herself! hahaha Ok I don't know if that sounds bad or good but anyway, you all have seen her splurges in the previous entry. Very good selections I must say. :D Next stop, a Prince day for me on my first book out! She bought me a top & 2 berms from Zara, Dockers khaki pants & we had dinner at Billy Bombers. Usually I would request for a shoe but she's very lucky as there's no major launch of any shoes early this month. Not forgetting her boss, Hui Ting & Kak Mai, they were treated also to a superb dinner outing after their work. Pics can be browse at Hun's facebook album. I promised to post pics when I'm free k dear!

Third & lastly, I've received a very good news in my working life so far! Details have been dished out during the 1/2hr meeting on Wednesday. Once everything has been finalized(insya'allah) ,I'll be off to my new career path. A REAL DREAM POST that I've always wanted. I won't leak out any details here yet but the only person who knew this bloody good news other than my office colleagues, is Hun! She was very happy for me too!

So 2008 has been a true blessing for Shezai so far. Insya-Allah there'll be more good things to come.

Laters, Shezai Readers!

This is going to be a very emotional entry, period.

There was once, when i was young, that i was looked down upon, I was jeered on and I was compared to. There was once when i was young, Momma said to me that i can't prove to her and Poppa that i can do well in my studies with a boyfriend by my side. There was once in my life that Poppa told everybody, "I love my second daughter more than my first daughter. She is the light of my life. She always makes me so happy, unlike my elder daughter. My elder daughter has NEVER made me happy." There was once when i was young that Poppa said to me,"You can't make it in life. You're so quiet, you have to talk more." There was once when i was young when Poppa said to my late Grandma," Anak yang kechik tu suka berbual, suka ejek-ejek dengan saya. Tu pasal saya sayang sangat dengan dia. Dia lah buah idaman hati saya. Kalau si anak lagi satu tu, asik diam ajer, tak tahu nak cakap." All these while looking at my face. There was once when I was young that Poppa slapped me because i did not wash his dirty dishes in the sink. There was once when i was young that I was told what kind of daughter I am compared to the other one. There was once when i was young that Poppa hinted,"When you get a man, make sure he is better educated than you, don't go and find boyfriend with no education. Get a boyfriend who is rich so he can take care of you." There was once when I was young that a bee stung me on the head and Poppa was reluctant to go to the clinic to see me but instead scolded my friends for helping me see the doctor. There was once, when i was young, i was blamed for everything in the house because i cannot speak up even when i know i was right. There was once when i was young, that i felt like suicide because of the pain and hurt and emotional distress caused by 'them'. There was once when I was young, I thought to myself ,"I don't deserve to be a human being."

Look at this daughter now. This daughter has succeeded in her studies with a good degree, even with a boyfriend by her side then. This daughter has worked her way up the career ladder, even if she is quiet and timid and does not have a huge manja motor-mouth. This daughter has earned the highest percentage of increment and performance appraisal the first year into her permanent job. This daughter knows how to cook, wash, clean and take care of the house. This daughter married a man who is smarter than she is, even though he is not rich and his qualifications does not meet Poppa's expectations. This daughter married a man who succeeds so fast in his career even without Poppa's said education standards. This daughter married a man who makes her feel like she is everything in the world to him. More importantly, this daughter married a man who has never ever degraded her and loved her for who she is.

And I have proven you BOTH wrong.

It is now that I thought to myself once again," I deserve to be human."

Boyyyy Am I on a RoLLLLL!

Work ended at 6pm as usual... My hands are itching to feel fabrics, dresses, tops and what-nots. Reached Vivocity at 630pm. (Since work is so near Vivo, and every lunch hour was spent there, i think it has become my ultimate playground). Shopped like a mad woman until 10pm when the shops practically closed their doors on me because they wanted to go home already but not me. I love shopping alone. It's a phenomenon i just cannot explain. Hon will always be my fashion consultant when i'm out with him, no doubt, but when i have my retail therapy alone, a huge hole will be burnt where the credit once was. Damn. I kept away from branded hi-ends. Not worth the big bucks (for now). Instead, I opted for quantity, without discriminating the quality. (I hope). Almost half a K was spent on Lver, F21, Mango, Zara, LaSenza, etc, etc. Vivocity is a ladies' paradise. I feel so Good. So Fab. So Eager. So Satisfied!!! Being a woman ROcKs!!




OK Hon, I'm done indulging myself. I'm gonna indulge you next. You're my target! Get ready.

SuperCow!

Yarh yarh... wo pui kia liao.
Guess what. I got so paranoid when i found out that I gained 5KG after marriage!!!!!! The HORROR of it all!! WHY oh WHY?!?! Where did all that Babat come from? Ok la Ok la.. i admit, I had been eating and binge'ing a lot, like A LOT a lot. So it's like DUH.

Hon is still in there. Poor dear has cough. Pls take care of yourself Honey. I met my family at the airport after work. Yes I planned to have retail therapy, but due to my super painful high heels which caused my feet to cry, I decided against it and met my family for Popeye's at T3. The best part of the meal? The chicken skin.. yea yea. Crispy and oily, yum yum. The rest are all so muak. After dinner, we walked around e airport, very quiet and very empty and very boring. So we made our own nonsense.

My sister insisted we took this picture to show how tall and SKINNY she is, and how short and fat i am. Stoopid PhiG! You pond-skater you.
Oh my god, look at those sticks. mwahahhahahhaa. We actually weighed ourselves on the designated weighing machine for luggage. Well, talk about excess baggage!
I was super shocked that i gained 5 Kilos. I've never hit the 46kg mark before and now, look at the figure on the machine!! How can that be? Shit! I'm in denial. Maybe the machine isn't that accurate. Bah! So to say, I'm FLABulously FLAB-aghasted!
Can't be bothered no more.

Reserved By The Force

re·serv·ist
[ri-zur-vist]
a person who belongs to a reserve military force of a country.
[Origin: 1875–80; reserve + -ist]

2 weeks he's not around (Except weekends). 2 weeks i'll be sleeping alone. Reminiscing the days of NS, where he'll call me in the school library. Still felt the same jitterbugs even though we're married. All the best in the jungle Honey. Come home to me soon. I miss you.

Lots of updates, but let's keep it to the bare minimal. Too much Yak can spoil your ears.

First of all, To Nurul my sweet cousin, Have a safe trip to USA and really really enjoy yourself !!! All e best in your studies!
Me and Hon bought for her a pair of Pajamas from La Senza as a Bon Voyage gift. Haha! No idea already, but glad she liked it.

Secondly, workwise, I've been in a dilemma but all that's gone in a flash of an evening. *Winks* Everything's good. I'm still in my job, trying to gain as much experience.....and take over the whole world. Hya hya hya. To date, it's the longest job i've ever stayed in ever since I graduated, 1 year already. Hehe. Trying to tahan all the shit. Hopefully.

Thirdly, Hon laughed at me because i bought a 'Kat Deluna' CD. What's wrong, man? Sheesh. I can dance like Ulat at home. hehe. And there he laughs again.... haiz. Oh and Justin Timberlake Madison2 garden DVD is the best musical/dance performance I have ever seen. Re-runs are very likely.

Fourthly, I am in desperate desire to go on a holiday. Please. I really really want a change of environment (read: country) for the time being. I dream of exploring somewhere exotic with Hon. *hint*

Fifthly, I'm gonna give Hon a Prince Day this Saturday when he books out. Why? Big B! Prince Day = Huge Spending spree for my Honey! Whatever he wants. (But before that, let me treat myself to a good Pampering shopping spree tomorrow first, hehehe.)

Sixthly, I gained 4 Kg!!!!! CRAP! WHY? Oh god, Fish and Vegetable diet for me from now on Please!

Seventhly, My health screening test results showed that i'm healthy!! The doctor reviewed everything. She said that my Good cholestrol beats my Bad Cholestrol, she showed me how to read the review booklet and my results showed nothing in my blood, stool and urine a.k.a. i'm healthy. Yeahoo!!! Ahamdulillah!

Eightly, I miss cycling. But I prefer swimming more now that i can swim properly in medium-shallow waters. It's just so magical being underwater, moving every limb against the water. Lovely. And my jogging has been deteriorating. Need to buck up, man.

Ninthly, Since parents are away, me and sis are very bored. I gave my sister a treat at Eatzi. Ermm.. Not really recomended. Kinda Bland menu. So not nice. Unless you crave a desire for MEAT and STEAK. Super Crappy Face = No Desire for MEAT.

Sister having Carbonara, and I ended up finishing it.
That's my meat. errr.... gosh, i meant steak. *Slaps forehead*
