D's Victourious moments

Last 2 weeks ago (13th and 14th Dec), Dave participated in a badminton competition at Wangsa Maju. He and his team won 1st place. Congratulations dear!!

Notice the delay of this post??? It's due to my laziness and also work which causes me to be lazy.. ok ok I know I know, no more procrastinations. There are still so many events and happenings I would I to post.. I'll try to seek more time!

Here are some snapshots I got during his game and also during the prize giving ceremony:

Once again, congratulations to all that have participated in the competition!

After a long break from blogging

Hello peeps!!
Firstly, MERRY CHRISTMAS and Happy New Year to all!! May your holidays are filled with joy, laughter and prosperity ^^.

I've been busy of late.. working around the clock (without claiming OT), don't want to further elaborate on that matter coz' it's a SAD CASE .. Not worth explaining. So, I pampered myself today.. I went bowling at Selayang Mall and also shopping at Pavilion. Actually I went to Pavvy with the intention to try out new food at the food court. However, I ended up buying 2 items.

Bowling was great (to me at least).. I played an average of 183 (200 + 196 + 155 + 183). The third game was slightly lower due to the long waiting time for the alley to fix the short circuit problem. Anyway, was happy that bowling went well.

Then, at Pavvy, I had Little Taiwan's "Three Treasure Beef Noodle". Taste was ok but Dave rejected it. It was quite filling and this bowl cost me RM12.90. I guess I should have ordered the rice instead. Dave got himself claypot chicken rice but I didn't manage to capture snapshot of it. According to Dave, the claypot rice doesn't taste good as well. Probably too much burnt rice.



These are the items I purchased at Pavvy:

I bought this piece for Dave, a long sleeved top from cK.
Since they are having sales, so I thought of getting him something *wink*

I ended up getting this piece bag.

Actually I was hunting for a bag so that I could bring to work since the current bag I'm using is tearing up. Dave chose a smaller white bag which I think it's sweet. However, I felt insecure with the material. So I got a more dear piece which leaves us both a hole in our pockets. It's funny how I get another bag without first planning it from Pavvy AGAIN!.

Dave have been asking me to clear off my current old bag and use this new bag to work tomorrow. I'll have to reconsider using this bag for working purposes. Nobody would want to stain a nice baggy right? LOL.

Got to sign off for now. Working tomorrow.. ya ya.. working on PUBLIC HOLIDAYS.. so pathetic right? *sigh* life..

P/S: I hope PAY DAY is within these 3 days!! I already have something in mind with the voucher I got today!!

Monotonous Mondays

Actually, that's what revolves around me not only on Monday but everyday.
Wake up, work, lunch, work, dinner, face the computer, sleep and another cycle.

Christmas is just around the corner and I have nothing in mind yet.
My colleagues are taking leaves except me. It seems like there's no hope for me in getting an extra day off. However, taking a day off serves no purpose as I have no plans. *lol*

*Edited*

P/S: Pay day is coming soon *giggling*

Ma, I miss you

Ma, I wonder if u can read this but if you do, I want to let you know I miss you alot!
If you're here, I bet you can guide me through every single little problems I've/I'll encounter(ed) in life, including this current problem I have now. I really don't know what I should do?

I wish I can dream of you.. I really miss you.
I bet we could get along well
I bet I'll be close to you
I bet I'll share everything with you like every other daughters and moms

I wish I could hug you everyday and get a kiss from you everyday like when I was young before leaving to school.

Most of all, Ma, I wish you well. Till we meet again!

Marche

Last night, Dave brought me to Marche for dinner to celebrate his victory in the badminton tournament. Initially, he wanted to bring me to TGI Fridays, however Marche's current promotion attracted us. We bought Marche's member card for RM 60 with a pre-loaded value of RM 70. Besides that, we do have a cup of coffee free, not only for the first time but each time we visit Marche with/without purchase.

We made a mistake by ordering two sets of chicken. We should have tried others instead.
I spotted their grilled salmon and their thin crust pizza..probably next time.

P/s Pictures will be uploaded later!

My latest ADD ONS to my collection

Hehehe, this post is more for self-satisfaction. My latest collection of stickers, particularly Sandylions.

Since young, I love Sandylion stickers alot but living in a small town restricted me from buying them. However, now I have the chance to get them and I recently got 3 *laughing*

Left: Dental stickers (not Sandylion)
The remaining are Sandylion stickers

My latest collection of Sandylion stickers

This is Sandylion's prismatic type of sticker which has glittery effects.
I bought snowman in occassion of the Christmas season.

This is a Fuzzy type which has a velvet material.
This type is my favourite.

This is a kormekote type.
Notice the circle on the bottom right-hand corner?
I've circled it to show the missing head (I assure you no photoshop)

This is a similar shot but different angle.
The missing head was due to the flash and angle.
I didn't notice till I posted it.

SALES....or no SALES?

In my opinion, the current saving sales isn't a REAL saving sales..

Why?

Let me elaborate a lil'
1) To save is not to buy
There are certain people who will buy EXTRA whenever they see the word SALES.
Worse, some will even buy unnecessary items for the sake of SALES.
So, in such cases, certain people SPEND more during SALES and not SAVE more (Which includes me *wink*)

2) Misleading term
I've noticed certain outlets/shops/boutiques do not really have their proclaimed "FURTHER REDUCTION" or "SALES" as certain items were sold at such price all year round.
Again, people will be mislead into buying items of such.

3) Advantage taken
Several shops that I always go use this saving sales period to clear off their REALLY OLD stocks at a fair price. This is of course if you don't mind buying them.
Before this, the sales items are better than the current SAVINGS SALES. What I really mean is, SALES items before the current SAVINGS SALES are in larger quantity/variety.
As for me, I prefer their NORMAL SALES to the now Malaysia Savings Sales because I get to perhaps purchase a better and newer item.

However, being a shopaholic, I can't resist the temptation whether or not there's SALES or NO SALES =).

Holidays on the last month of the year

Being the last month of the year, there'll be public holidays and this year we have extras. (although not all are gazetted public holidays). We'll have Hari Raya Haji this coming Monday, 8th December followed by Sultan Selangor's birthday which on the 11th December then Christmas, 25th and Awal Muharram on the 29th December. Not forgeting 1st January 2009 as well.

However, of all the mentioned public holidays, I only have Christmas, New Year and Sultan Selangor's birthday as non-working days where as the rest is half day. Sad sad...

What do I have to face everyday during work? Let me list it down:
1) blood samples
2) urine samples
3) sysmex and ESR machines
4) microscope and slides
5) histograms
6) people at work
7) wastes

So far, people at my workplace are nice people. I hope I'll continue to maintain a good relationship with all of them.

Sad

Yesterday wasn't a good day for me

I hope today will be a better day..

I'll be heading out in a while to open a bank account which I've delayed so many times.. *all the excuses* My colleagues kept prompting me to open a bank account so that I can receive this month's pay though it's just a few days.
I wonder how much will I receive this month?
