The Last Day Of Year 2012

Here goes " Good-bye 2012 and Hello to 2013".

I should probably just go to dye my hair. 

I have just purchased a pair of gorgeous heels for myself before the ending of Year 2012

to welcome Year 2013.

Haha. What a brilliant excuse.

Jimmy and Ethelynn, Tong and Yii Jia

just got married this year.

And according to Yjia,

it will be Apek and Cindy's turn in 2013.

Moreover, Cindy got Yjia's bouquet.

I juct can't wait to see Cindy in the pretty white wedding gown.

Work is just NEVER-ENDING.

Christmas Post

This lovely gift is from a sweetie named Inara (I hope I spelled her name correctly). The brother and her went to Hong Kong and brought this back for me. Inara never forgets to bring back a little something when she went travelling. How sweet. This is why I decided to post about it. It's very touching. Thank you very much, Inara sweetie. Kisses for you.

Went out for dinner with Handsome after work. We are both super hungry that day and spotted this steamboat place and decided to give it a try. We were very disappointed with the food and the price. We spent RM57.00 and still feeling hungry. Never ever going back to that place again for sure. Too bad. Highly NOT recommended!!!

Mr. Handsome went to shopping alone and bought me a drawer full of 3-in-1 coffee, junk food and a lot of instant noodles. This is exactly what he would do if he went shopping alone. Always bought a lot of one thing. I think I can open a mini market in the office and gain some extra income out of these. Haha. 

I am spending my time in the office on a Christmas Day working on Sakura project. 

Pity me. Merry Christmas 2012. 

Unexpected

Seriously, I really felt guilty after eating junk food every time. 

So why not eat something green instead. 

My Mister accused me of making him eat 1 tonne of leaves.

Haha, can you imagine how big the plate is. 

It's the size of plate which they mostly used to serve the first dish in every wedding reception dinner.

Huge. And good for him.

Little muffin for tea time. Making these muffins are too easy and time saving.

My Mister bought the 'convenience pack' or I shall put it the 

ever ready muffin mix from the supermarket.

And just add in water and stir until light moisture mixture

then pour into the muffin cups.

Put them into the oven for 20 minutes.

And let the oven does the rest of the work.

Birthday Month

Birthday was fine. First celebration was with Dy, Irene and my Mister. Second celebration was with my beloved father and brother. Which means 2 birthday cakes for year 2012's birthday. How nice is that. 

Irene bought a singing candle saying that she is lazy to sing the birthday song for me and just let the candle do  all the hard work. Funny Irene. Dy is paying all the food and the cake though. My Mister sponsored the place and also he finished off the cake. Yjia got me the Sereni & Shentel which I was longing. Irene got me the purse. And Mister got me the double C. And also all the texts all around the globe.

Thank you everyone. I love you all.

   

November equals to hectic month. Or I shall put it every month equals to hectic month. 

I can't possibly explain the work load. 

I would really want to walk away once in a while.

Fancy October

Basically, I was busy from the beginning of October till now. October is very happening. Loaded with piles and piles of paper works and estimation. I have done most of them and there are more yet to come.
People who know me well probably know that I am not of the outgoing kind and it's really hard for me to find friends who I can really open my heart to. Now unfortunately, my colleagues are leaving the company. I am very depressed of they leaving. Hence, I am trying to persuade one of them to stay. I really hope that this VIP will reconsider and stay because the company truly needs the service. If this VIP insists of leaving, there are no choice of course for the boss to look for new personal. Frankly speaking it is not easy for me to accept the truth that they left the company.
20th of October was Irene's birthday. And which I think, she had her most wonderful and special birthday over these few years. For the past few years, all we did for her was a simple night out to a fine restaurant in town and nevertheless birthday presents. But this year, she celebrated her birthday in a friend's house. The friend made her a very fine home-made dinner and of course with her favourite of all times, beer. She was thrilled. From the bottom of our hearts, we all hope that she is truly happy and truly enjoy her birthday. I think she was a bit drunk by the end of the day. LOL. 'Happy Birthday, Irene. We love you.'
Things are getting touch when we grow up. And I realized that the key to happiness is learning of letting go.

Tough Week

My marimo tank is getting congested due to my 'Mister' accidentally purchased 100 marimo balls. But he managed to sell off 70 marimos. So there are 35 in my small tank. Thinking of giving 5 to my mother since marimos are really easy to cater for and it won't take out much of her time. I have a feeling that she will probably love them. 

Having to work on leave is feeling really bad. What was in my mind is that why am I always the one to do these troublesome works. Now it's not just working at nights and weekends but on my vacation!! Come on boss, please just give me a break.

On this particular day, I had to go for a tender interview and work right after the meeting. What a terrible week I had. I had to work at a coffee shop since my boss had to go down to the plantation site and I definitely do not want to follow.  And it's 2 and a half hours drive back to my office. Thus I ended up sitting in the coffee shop to complete off my work. I wanted to go home so badly that day.

At the end of the day, I was rewarded with this mouth-watering dinner. However, I regret after the first bite. Because it's around 7 pm and it's too heavy for my stomach to digest. It's not so rewarding after all. 

Nano Marimo & Star Moss

I was truly excited about these little marimo balls from Japan. Based on the information I get, the growth of these green marimo is only 5mm per year. And the greatest thing about the marimo is that it can live up to 200 years!!! How surprisingly long this marimo can live. I got these marimos of a very fair price though. In the aquatic shop I came across, the pricing of each little marimo is RM 20.00. These marimos are obtained online from ebay which 5 of the small balls cost 1 US dollar and plus RM 18.00 for the postage. Thus, altogether the marimos cost RM 20 ++. I got the glass from 'SuperSave' which cost me RM 2.50. And the small rock underneath I collected from the beach.

And for a lazy person like myself, marimo is truly a very very very easy plant to take care of. It requires only a little ceiling light, changing of water every once a week or once every 2 weeks or the most 4 weeks, no carbon dioxide injection is required for healthy growth and of course a lot of love. It says to add some salt to the water if the marimo turns yellowish. I truly hope that would not happen to my little green fury marimos.

The greenish square cube is star moss, also one kind of aquatic plant. And of course easy to rear like the marimo. I was most curious of how the star moss would grow like. Waiting.......
