Back from Hong Kong... AGAIN...

Finally made it back from Hong Kong. Definitely glad to be back! No place feels as good as home! Hm, seems like the Hong Kong trip pretty much concludes my travelling for the year. Yap, NO MORE plane rides for the rest of the year! I officially have enough of plane rides.

Overall, the trip was pretty fun, thanks to the company of my sistas + brother. Shopping was GOOD as usual (it's better not to mention the damage done. =P). To add on to our adventure, we survived a No.3 Typhoon! (Nay, it was nothing wow, just lotsa rain and occasional strong winds. Nothing too exciting)

Now that Zim and I are finally back for good, wedding preparations are picking up once again. (Yes, that also means that the wedding headaches will be coming back too, oops. )Kinda scary to think that although the wedding is just 6 months away, there are still a long list of items that require our attention. *Faints* Who ever said preparing for a wedding/marriage is easy~ =(

Oh, by the way, after some discussion with the husband, we've decided to purchase a resale flat (somewhere in Bukit Panjang area). Yeah, we know that resale flats are generally more costly, but there's nothing much we can do since our luck with HDB's balloting system just seems to be really really bad. Started our house scouting a couple of weeks ago, saw a couple that we have pretty good vibes of. (but our moms don't quite seem to agree.. ) Anyway, nothing is finalized at this point of time.. Guess that means more scouting...

Sigh~

Shopaholic KeY

Received an unexpected paycheck a couple of days ago. (nope, ain't from customs lah) Yeah, apparently, PA decided to sent me a 1 day pay for 1st May (which was supposingly my official last day of work!). Quite surprised though, especially since my ex-boss wasn't too pleased with me anyway. Whatever, got money, just take! =) *grinz*

So, decided to reward myself using that unexpected paycheck and bought myself a....
Crumpler bag! Hee... think impulse works best for me. Just went into the shop, looked at the 3 alternatives and simply decided to get the smaller sling bag over the tote and laptop bag.

happy~

Popped by Marks and Spencer and bought myself some lingerie! Ended up burning an extra hole in my wallet. Sigh, think I better stay home for the next few weekends to avoid falling for the traps of GSS.

=P

120th blog entry..

This is my 120th blog entry. I blogged 120th entries in my previous blog and the 120th entry was the last entry there. It was a period of blogging sickness and I retired for almost 1 year before resuming. Even though it's also my 120th entry in this blog, I'm pretty sure that it's NOT going to be the last. Hee, yes, which also means that my blogging passion is still burning! ^_^ Keep it up KeY!

Hm, anyway, life has been pretty peaceful for me for the past few weeks. Good start on the job, starting to blend better with the colleagues, always cracking lame jokes and gossiping (duh, my favourite pastime mah), and of course, learning things on people relationships as well as the job operations. The only not-so-good part now is the waiting phase. As from now, I'm still waiting for orders from the management as to where I will be posted to. No one seems to know (or maybe no one wants to say anything), so I guess there's nothing much I can do but simply sit back and wait on..In other words, enjoy my honeymoon~ and pray for the best!

Life without Zim isn't all too bad.(but if I were to choose, I would definitely prefer having him around, duh) Pretty much used to it right now. Though I do miss him quite a bit, at least I am able to meet up with some of my friends. It's just weird that I still hear his voice on the phone, but yet not able to see / touch him physically. Sounds like he's just at home, but in a matter of fact, he's actually far far away in Switzerland. =(

Basketball sessions without Zim started off really weird, especially when I usually relied on him for my 'endless' supply of water and 100plus. Now that he's away, I pretty much have to fork out my own $$ to buy my own drinks. TMD. Can't wait till my waterboy's return in just 13 days time! ^_^

On a happy side note: Hee, I'm relatively pleased with my basketball performance for the past few sessions! Definitely improving on both my rebounding as well as shooting. But I'm confident that I can improve more! Shall find some time to shoot some hoops and improve my skills!

Jia You!

Crumpler drives KeY crazy...

Decided it's about time for me to get my 2nd crumpler bag after 3 loooong years. Hence I popped by Crumpler shop to look for a new bag. Fell deeply in love with one of the laptop bag but was totally put off by the price. (Costs $155!) Went home and thought and thought and thought and thought about it. And finally managed to convince myself that I should buy it. (Receiving a final paycheck from my EX company did help me decide quicker) =P

Popped by the shop again today and asked the million dollar question: "What laptop size can fit this bag?" . "Laptops up to the size of 12 inches."

Fuck.

My Macbook is 13.3 inches.. T_T

ARghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.....

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh......

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa......

Can't believe my luck. Dropped an sms to the silly boy (that happened to be half way round the globe) to grumble and got this response:

"Don't be sad dear. How about i buy you a macbook air to trade for your mac? LOL"

Erm.. duh..

Firstly, a macbook air is also 13.3inches wide! (Just that it's supposingly thinner) and Secondly, after all the agony I've gone through for the past few months (thanks to my current macbook), there is NOOOOOOOO way I'm going to get a Mac in future. ( but thanks silly boy for the offer! I'll keep it for future use, yeah?)

tmd.... now my new dilemma is.. whether I should get a sling crumpler bag that is not for laptops, but is smaller than my current one OR to get a crumpler laptop bag that is too big for other functions OR just get a tote crumpler bag that probably can fit a laptop.

Sigh... I sound so bimbo right now!

Fuck.
