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.......

The Last Day of August

This is the pieces that I bought for the month of August.

When I am getting tired of working, this is

what I would do. 

Buy shoes.

This is my way of release tension. 

I will create a place to display them in the future.

My Little Happenings

My new fragrance from Lancome.
Was thinking of getting Coco Channel's fragrance at first
but its sense is a bit too mature for me.
Hence, I finally decided on Lancome. It's very romantic
kinda sense, this is how I would like to put it,
Romantic Fragrance. Have been fallen deeply in love
with it.










Mummy is coming back this Raya festive.

So, there we go, having the fullest steamboat dinner of the family's all times favourite.
Daddy had been talking about it for the pass
week. He is the one who is looking forward
for this steamboat. And mind you, he really ate
a lot tonight.



I am just being to addicted to shoes, especially high heels. I bought this 'I Love Ribbons' on Zalora, a Malaysia website. I called it that is just simply because I fall in love with the ribbons. I was most thrilled to have received the package after 2 days I placed the order. I was still discussing about these shoes while I received a mms from my youngest brother. He took a photo of the shoes and give me a peek of them before I could actually touch them. The first thing I got home from work was of course to try it on. I am aiming for the next pair.

Here's some photos of it.......

Saturday

This is what I did last Saturday. 

Do some shopping for my skin. 

I hope I am hardworking enough to wear it on my face at least once a week. 

If the effect is good, I may probably add these into my shopping list next time. 

Talking about balancing between work and life, 

the scale is still weighing more on the work side. 

I should truly find sometime for myself and 

do some shopping at the book store

next time. 

Should add some new books on the shelf. 

Nothing much happened for the pass week.

However,

I could truly feel that

a person's character will slowly show through time. 

I just need sometime to adapt it.

At Work

When tender closing date is getting closer, you can really feel the tension in the air. Therefore, why so serious? Ease the tension by implementing some childhood fun in the work. I can't make up my mind on the final figure for the tender. So, I just simply write the number in each of the paper and fold the papers. Put the papers into a box and selectively choose from the box without looking in the box. When i got the figure, I called my boss to reconfirm but he said to stick with the figure we both agreed a day before. And so, end of the story.
