moi lovely V-day card!

mich` @* 10:43 AM

__________________________________________________________________

yesh.. stop asking me how i'd be celebrating my v-day.. i'll bite!!

nah juz kidding! ;p

i'll be going for tuition, spending my 1st half of V-day with moi fav kids.. then 2nd half peeling open my prezie!! *smiles* (unless mr wee insists i muz wait for his to arrive b4 i can open.. oh no! i feel so bad..)

-----------------------------------------------

whenever i walk past herbal medicinal shops, i'll be reminded of someday last yr when tiz special person made me down one large bowl of super-bitter-but-supposed-to-heal-my-cough chinese herbal soup.. it tasted reli bad, but left v sweet memories..

he practically dragged me into the shop, ignoring my incessant protests. apparently he heard tiz horrible tasting medicine was quite effective. i behaved lyk a lil' girl.. had to be coaxed to drink the medicine.. he offered to share, n tried so hard to fake his expression to convince me it tasted ok. tt was when he saw the honey on e table, (supposed to be poured on e guilingao which was sold in tt shop as well) n intelligently used tt to coax me to drink. how smart.. n sweet!

~*blissful*~

i tink the lady in the shop was quite amused, but impressed by his actions.

i am too..tt is y to date my heart wil still smile when i pass herbal shops.. ;)

-------------------------------

rem once i went to temple w tiz special someone. i lighted some joss-sticks to pray, in the process my hands were "stained" with some reddish colour plus some joss-powder..

i brushed them off (coz i'm rather allergic to it).. n when he saw me doing tt, he offered his tee n told me to wipe my hands with it..

*smiles*

-------------------------------

n the prawn-peeling which made my frens how envious.. plus a lame nick which they used to refer to him for a period of time---> prawn-peeler.. *grinz

-------------------------------

e beautiful flowers n their symbolism on our 14th mth-versary..(purple bow n packaging which he chose himself remembering tt was my fav colour) e picnic surprise at our fav place. he prep snacks n many tealights, carefully placing them in e form of a heart, n lighting them up..n constantly trying to keep them lighted despite e strong wind..

-------------------------------

on dong-zhi tiz yr when i made a super cannot-make-it tangyuan, ultra floury. i can tell it's pretty bad n inedible but he actually forced himself to swallow it.....

*speechlessly touched*

--------------------------------

wout a word of complain when he came to my place after shopping, brought me to his home to collect e travel bag (bcoz i forgot to take in e mornin), then send me home agn..

-------------------------------

when i first saw him at the arrivals after a few mths, i can feel the warmth, n happiness of coz! the way he held on tightly to my hands.. tells alot.

-------------------------------

for telling me u're proud of me hence e display..

for the xmas surprise.. for the ensuring all my gifts arrive on time [i nid to jian tao... =( ]

for the constant reassurance..

for nt being lyk any other typical guy..

for all e effort...

for everything n loads more,

for juz being you.

conscientiously tried to do abit evry now n then but stil failed to accomplish in time.. feel so bad bt it.

lam -> moi hse -> zl -> eric

missed lam's place coz ive sth urgent to be done early in e morning.. but told his mum i'll go over another day v soon!! every stop was special in its own ways, steamboat lunch at ling's place, (yummie! 4guys, 4girls.. big-eaters in general but stil had an over-abundance of food left.. !;p ) gambling den over at eric's.. plus heavy tok cock sessions! =D overall, a very successful hse-visiting day.

a streak of gd luck at e gambling tables tiz cny.. actually cant even rem the last time we actually gathered to display our "du-shen feng fan"

*smiles*

haf gotten all the nice cards one can dream of.. lyk double Ace, triple 7s etc... ;)

i tink more often than nt, gambling either make one broke, or bring him back to square one--even out. its such an addictive activity. u'll nv wan stop when u win money, e stakes juz get bigger evry round.. onli until all money is lost eventually will one be forced to leave e vicious cycle.

but its all for fun & laughter on cny ;)

tinking bt moi own celeb is a headache..

stil wondering if i shld do anything special...

choy's nt convinced tt she's 1 major factor tt'll make the difference to my bday.. she tinks he's the more, or even the only impt factor.

n i've juz persuaded him nt to come back.. by coming up with a list of cons for him.

stimes, i'm puzzled by my own actions too.. when i've alwiz thought i'm an emotional person whu goes w my heart. prob my level-headedness DOES get the better of me more often then not..

i nid to retake the myers-brigg test.

rejected e job offer as boss's pa..

benefits:

1k per mth (which's quite alot of money considering e part-time job nature)
i spend more time there, which makes my tpt costs more worthwhile
most imptly, i get to learn & gain 1st hand experience
plus i've a boss who's v keen in bringing me into tiz industry, hence possible exposure to meet relevant pple

drawbacks:

i'll haf to give up tuition
i love moi kids, btw
longer hours, i.e. 5 days x 6hrs = 30hrs per wk (as compared to my current 2 x 3hrs of tuition plus another 3 x 3hrs of telemkting = 15hrs per wk)
job commitment, which means time wil no longer be at my discretion
no commission, equals no incentive to piah for e job, which'll result in lack of drive leading to poor work performance
projects n exams coming up
giving up leisure time, n time for myself,
which means i'll be more stressed up, grumpy & depressed
i'll prob be slogging my life away 2 yrs later... for at least 20yrs.

evidently, costs exceed benefits. opportunity cost too high..

---------------------------------

one high ranking (read: with her personal office) staff at manulife financial complimented me on my vocal clarity & the way i do telemarketing. *beaming*

apparently she's been eavesdropping on moi conversation with potential clients too. she's nt the onli one btw.. (how scheming!)

she enquire on how i get to know of tiz job, how much i am getting, where i am studying, to my timetable in school.. she asks if it's possible for me to get her someone of my "calibre", salary negotiable.

furthermore, she commented tt "birds of e same feather flock together", implying that i shld be able to get someone who speaks lyk me.. wat an inappropriate description to use! n how funny, whoever advocates tt frens with similar abilities n characters stick together? (note: abilities, nt interests)

anyway i agreed to ask around, reason being tiz may actually benefit someone. So, anybody whu has frens interested to do telemarketing for 4-5 days a week, 2-6pm at valley point (near tiong bahru station), do lemme know. salary negotiable, minimum $8 per hr excluding commission.

---------------------------------

am working on a project intensively..

oh no!! i betta return to moi work if i'm planning to sleep tonight..

ciaoz!

met up with e MAO Clan today. it feels reli good juz to catch up & get updates on their lives..

*smiles*

"Meet the Fockers" was gd.. light-hearted & extremely entertaining! =D (but it felt kinda weird to be laughing my head off in an almost empty cinema, luckily moi bud wasn't keeping back his laughter too ;p)

*smiles*

choy received her card today.. efficient postal svc i must say.
*smiling wide* HEY HEY!! I received your mail!! I am SO VERY overwhelmed with joy!! It really did WARMED my heart.. miss ya lots.. love ya lots too.. *muacks*
i can almost feel her joy n picture her beaming face when she received e card..

*smiles*

attended an interesting D&D on sat. theme: "for someone special". it was indeed an eye-opener.. haf nv seen so many guys dancing n rocking to the music together as one body, nt forgetting all da loving couples, young & old.

*smiles*

spent sunday with momma.. we went shopping!! no impressive conquests, juz some necessities plus quality time spent together. n we managed to "ban huo" for cny! literally move goods, 2 strong ladies w cartons of drinks, canned food plus some goodies..

*smiles*

decided to do sth special.. was toying w the idea for some time.. hope it'll turn out successful ;)

*smiles*

did sth out of the ordinary today.. costs me a sig. portion of moi meagre salary, wld b more if it weren't so boh hua or if i weren't so broke.. (w so many birthdays threatening, special occasions coming up & e temptatns of shopping for cny ---> wil someone kill me pls!!).. but it certainly comes with alot alot of love..
