*cough cough* Well… this is certainly embarrassing. I didn’t realise that it was months since my last update. Thoroughly embarrassing.. *hides from the angry readers with pitchforks*
Nothing much has happened. I finally got married amidst my jittery feelings and negative aura which happens to be my evil demon side etc… OK enough of my personal life. I got married, got a new job and had a time of my life terrorising my colleagues every time I feel stress with work. So love my work.. lol
Will be posting my decent wedding pictures soon, once I get a proper collection of my photos and free self-time *glares at her husband*.
See you darlings next time! Hopefully soon in the next few days
Blink..blink..blink.. I have thought time will drag but when you’re busy, time flies really fast. Before I know it, I have a few meager weeks to enjoy whatever is left of my single hood. Some did ask me how I am feeling about my big day, and I answered them as I have always felt, nonchalant.
Yes yes yes… I am feeling not even the slightest feeling of panic etc. What I feel everyday and especially by the end of the day is TIRED. Yup, too tired to even think properly that by the time I have my head on the pillow, I immediately fall asleep.
And yes, ever since my BATA office shoes peeled cracked and peeled off, I have to resort into using a pair of sport shoes to work. That BATA shoes died exactly one month from the date I bought it. I never understand how a pair of RM59.00 shoes managed to crack and peel off right under my own two feet. I doubt, I was that rugged.
Perhaps the next time I buy a pair of shoes, I’d consider either a pair of safety boots or english riding boots. The later having the advantage of not getting my feet wet during a rainy season.
It has been a long while since I last updated this blog. It has taken up plenty of dust and lots of cobwebs decorated this place. A lot of things had happened while I was away.
Firstly, I got new job. Hurray for me! I am currently engaged to MDA under NCS Pte Ltd as Desktop Support Engineer. Working life here is good with plenty of friendly faces. It is a fast pace environment but manageable. In fact I am very pleased with the current team mates. All for one, one for all!
Commuting to work no longer a chore. In fact I prefer having it at the pace I am assigned to. I head out to work from Causeway but uses the Secondlink when I return from work. No stress for me there!
Anyway, for those who are looking for Optician Jobs, feel free to drop by at that link. Gotta go now!!
This will be the last time I ever harbour the idea of getting a Lexmark Printer. If the printer even breathes or coughs out an error, I am giving it my shiny boot *glares at the stubborn machine*.
For weeks I have been getting a lot of trouble in finding the ink cartridge for the model Lexmark X9350. Almost all the stores I went to are out of stock. What are the sales men doing, sleeping on their job?
In this frustrating fiasco, I really miss my HP printer and Cannon printer. To get my hands on their ink cartridges is much more easier and can be easily found almost everywhere. Take HP for example, even though their hp ink cartridges is a bit expensive, their product availability is everywhere.
Heck, even my Mamak Stall sells their ink cartridges, without the Mi Goreng of course. Grr.. I am so changing my printer!
Pardon my lost in space moment there. I just recently updated my WordPress and the latest version is almost similar to the usual old one that I have been using. My favourite easy navigator bar is missing and has been replaced with something much more..elegant and it looks neater and hmm.. simplified. I hope I did get the right word for that description.
Lately everyone is in the shopping mood as the Mid-Year sale is still on. Almost all the items are slashed at a startling price. I would have joined the fray if I had the funds for it. A few weeks ago, Casio was having a great discount and most of their funky watches were priced below SGD$100.
I am a fan of watches and would love to buy those unique watches. I was entranced by a particular bulova watch but after looking at the price, I made a beeline for the exit. Usually I would just get the cheap ones in Bugis St as they are priced below SGD$10. My mock up leather strap big funky watched I had previously bought was $5.
Previously, BHG was having a DBS/ POSB debit/credit card member close sale and the atmosphere was very staggering. I was overwhelmed by the surge of crowd that went crazy with their shopping. People were literally ransacking the shelves.
I did take a look at the prices. They were cheaper than usual but after comparing the prices in Malaysia, I’d rather get it in Malaysia than in Singapore. Less bulk for me to carry and lesser impact on my pocket.
It’s Monday once again and the blues are hovering over me. Dark ominous clouds storming over my head while I start my day. *face slams* Although my body feels like lead, heavy, sluggish and overly tired, a day is still a day and work is still work.
Had Durian for breakfast today courtesy of Daddy dearest. We had a small road trip yesterday for a little bit of rest. We finally managed to get our delicious Durian for a very good rate. We don’t usually get those D24 etc but buy them in bulk, with all sort of grades and conditions. It is much more fun to buy them that way than otherwise.
Mom’s birthday is coming up soon in about 11 days from now. I am not sure what to get or do for her. I had people giving me weird ideas and the funniest is giving her a football gifts. I would love to give her that IF she knows even a THING on football.
Since her birthday is days away, I will have a few more days to think of getting her something.
Oh my god!! One of my most favourite cute character from Shrek finally has his own movie. Puss In Boots!!!
I totally love his cute feline masochism that bordered adorability. The movie will make its premier in this November however when it will grace Malaysia is to be known later.
Watch the much awaited trailer and be entranced by its cuteness.
This year is one of the most eventful years I could remember. There are a few weddings which I know of, one of which I had attended last weekend. Do I hear a few babies coming out pretty soon, perhaps next year? *smirks mischievously*
Well for those who are expecting or knows of anyone who are expecting some cute little ones of their own, they may love this site. Personal Creations does a wonderful job on making personalized gifts for baby or those that are expecting little ones.
After looking through their website, they do more than making personalised gifts for babies. They also make gifts meant to stroke the egos of the parents by having some custom made I LOVE MOM/ DAD photo frames. I think they are cute!!
Having a Jusco in the neighbourhood was suppose to be a good thing. Easy accessible to flagship stores, great food etc. However since it is now well known with Singaporeans for being near the second link, it is now crowded with them during all weekends and major holidays.
As per normal practices in almost all Singaporeans, they love to buy anything that is considerably cheap when compared to their homeland. Fresh baked bread, gone in 60mins. Fresh crispy vegetables, gone in 60mins. Fruits gone by the end of the day. In the end to avoid the Gone With The Wind, I have to either do my shopping in the early morning on all of the Attack of The Singaporeans days or do my shopping in the least busy day.
A question keep ringing in my mind. Are all the food items and basic needs in Singapore THAT expensive?
I do occasionally return to my homeland and when I do step into their supermarkets, my eyes nearly pop out. Their usual provisions are expensive. For example, the price of 1 packet of mustard leaves in Malaysia is Rm1.50 but in Singapore is $1.00. The only thing I see is affordable is their junk food.
No wonder they raid all of the food shelves in Jusco Bukit Indah whenever they drop by.
I have been very lazy lately in updating this dusty site. What used to be a place where I dump all my thoughts and cynical ideas, now rests with the dust and huge cobwebs. *dons her apron and takes out her feather duster*
Time to whip those dust bunnies and show them who is boss eh? *gives a loud war cry and chases the dust bunnies away*
I am not sure if I have written about it but I recently got myself a new desktop in lieu with a lightning storm that fried my old PC. Since it was not equipped with a decent video graphic card, I trudge back to my homeland, Sim Lim Square and got the best deal out of them.
GEFORCE GT 220 may be out dated for several years but thats the only one which I am able to afford considering I have a tight budget. It is a 1GB DDR2 HDMI DVI VGA PCI E and it was pegged at $SGD 86.00.
For newbies who are new into graphic cards, do lots of reading and comparing online first before buying anything. Furthermore those sales person behind the counter usually expects a nerd/ geek to be buying all of these items and will never be helpful to counter offer or even help you out in your purchase.
Unfortunately I faced that problem since its been years since I even read a PC magazine. Electronics are constantly updating and revamping and it is VERY much advised to read up before you buy anything.
When you have bought it, read up on how to install it along with the driver. Do not plug your monitor into your new graphic card yet until all the installation is completed. Plug n Play will not recognise it yet.
I installed it with no problems and am happily playing Dragons Age Origin and Awakening with ease. Fantastic graphics that game has *drools*. However if you do installed a new patch for Dragons Age Awakening, do a data backup for your game. I had problems with the patch and its crappy.
Tempting me to rewrite a few things in that patch, although I get a little lazy in reading programming words.
Thanks for dropping by! I love to rant and rave about almost everything and anything on my mind. Feel free to browse my articles and leave your comments.
