Long list

Long list

Long list of things to do today.

1. Day starts early at 930 di bukit timah

2. Go to my dermatologist at orchard to stock up on acne spot solution (for in case of emergencies) cos xmas & cny are approaching and i know a lot of ppl wanna get their hands on that as well. My miracle cream in case of any pimple when the day draws near

3. Collect my baju nikah at manja

4. Prob with venue. Long story. Gotta go to 3 CCs to check out their rates & availability. Yes, terrible. Slightly less than 3 mths before the sanding and this has to happen. Tak pe. Sabar… Sabar. Perhaps He has something better in store for us.

5. Reschedule dental appt cos the mr also nak go with me on the same date. Dental appt date. We are love like that. Heh.

6. AXS. Pay credit cards bill.

did i?

did i?

so at last, did i manage to go to amina’s place?

no. the usual no *sigh*

why the usual no? the same ol’ same ol’ overused reason -> w.o.r.k.

and of course there is the usual ‘make up appointment’. so saturday it’ll be instead :)

why or how did i miss today’s appointment?

i was busy juggling matters such as sending out emails on 4 different issues as well as making calls here there to confirm, reconfirm, settle queries, checking that all loopholes have been covered, checking balance and budget etc. yes, a day in the life of a _______________.

and before i knew it, amina called to ask whether i was coming. that, my dear, was the wake up call that my multitasking check list didnt include time management.

so here is me. 4.38 pm. and i shall call it a day. admin matters. checked.

when was the last time?

when was the last time?

oh joy! a sunday! a free sunday! it’s been months since i have a weekend to myself. thus, today’s day off is a blessing :)

my two classes have been cancelled. the morning fella is not feeling well (may he have a restful sunday and back in the pink of health soon) and the afternoon fella is up to his neck preparing for his school assessment (and may he ace it!)

so today, i shall head down to the gym, go dating dengan mr boyfriend *glee* and then iftar at nyai’s place with the family.

make the sunday a fantastic one, i shall!

syukur alhamdulillah! :) we dont know how it happened.. but it did happen :)

We refer to your application to buy a 5-room flat at Tampines Greenleaf in the May 2011 Build-To-Order Exercise.

We have conducted the ballot and your queue position to select a flat is 18. We will provide you with the flat selection details such as the flat list and brochure when we invite you to select a flat in June 2011 .

18! lapan belas! eighteen! *faints* 18!!!! i am still hyperventilating and grinning away as we speak.

for goodness sake, what were the odds? plenty, actually. we are blessed, indeed. thank you, Allah. we were first-time applicants. the bto was seven times over subscribed. imagine: 5 room units: 2300 applications for 320 units… and our queue is #18 :) *glee*

**my youngest sis and her tunang applied but they didnt get through. fret not. cos we are sure there is a better location which is perfect for abbas and iffah. somewhere out there. cos He knows best :)

Thursday!

Thursday!

I have a plan for today. To make full use of the day, that is. Scorching hot day, by the way. And i’m in black. Not smart.

collect my long overdue invoice for the cupcakes. Checked
Heading to the office to clear the mess on my table *no fun*

shall treat myself to a run and a swim at the gym after that. Been a member for a year but have yet to take a dip in the pool. And for this, akak sanggup tak put on make up all day.

And an appointment with the videographer tonight *whee* can you sense my excitement? Can you? Can you?

I love you. And all the furry cute animals in the world. Ta!

Rush hush

So i have a list for today.

My 2 kg weight gain has convinced me to renew my membership with amore ;p cos i dont want to be pengantin tembam *wails* when i should be saving, here is me, minutes away to kissing $1K goodbye. It’s all for a good cause. It’s all for a good cause. Lets keep on repeating that line, shall we *hicks*

Anyhoos.. I hope to start on our DIY today :)

4 days :)

4 days :)

4 days of happy happy :)

the mister was here and we went a trippin’. we managed to get us a car for two days. he drove & i fed him sweets :)

we choosed a white fujitsu for me at the pc show :) and he helped install and update stuff. so that all i have to do is switch on and play. huhu.

i tried driving up to bukit panjang on my own (a place, for the life of me, i’ve only been to once by road)… and got myself lost in choa chu kang. almost cried. almost lost my mind. and i’m pretty sure, got cursed by other drivers who tailed me slowly. thank goodness he knows me well enough to keep (already frantic) me calm over the phone.

we went to marina barrage, to the carpark at shaw where i used to go with the girls, ecp, watched planes, jalan kayu and more :)

really appreciate that he let me have a bit of me-time with the girls. for nurul’s surprise hen party :)

lunch at beach road.

another 4 days…. & we’ll see each other in kl, baby *mwah*

will i grow fat if i dont go gym for a day?

will i grow fat if i dont go gym for a day?

so i made a mental note of the things i need to do – work related. and that stresses me up cos the list is long. and i have a week to clear all that.

some people eat when they get all stressed up. there’s a slice of cake in front of me. bought it last night at the airport. i only took a few small bites a few minute ago. even the cake doesnt entice me at all.

to beat the stress, i go for a good long workout at the gym instead. to feel the high.

sadly, i cant do that today. cos i’m short of time.

off for a spa in a few minutes. and going out for a drive soon after that.

gosh. weather is unbearably hot, i’m sweating although apa yang saya buat sejak dari tadi hanya duduk saja.

a few more days to go…

a few more days to go…

Hi Mr/Ms ______

i have never sent work related emails back and forth this much ever. i think kalau add all up, almost 2 hours was spent doing that today.

hence, this explains the format for today’s blog entry.

the Os a-coming. till now and the 1st… we’ll be having intensive revision every morning for almost 3 hours, and another 3 hours in the late afternoons. and the mtp this friday. and the carnival this saturday. and the admin matters in between. being busy is fun (i am being sincere here), to a certain extent. but that also means i need a memory like an elephant cos i have to remember so many details all at once.

ah well, at least being kept on my toes helps me feel alive :) which also remind me that i’ve been on my feet all day. thank goodness i invested in a good pair of heels. long live, clarks!

tho i have to admit, i wish i have the time like pau. boleh bake nice cakes and desserts.

next month perhaps. june hols :)

am looking forward to the KL trip in three weeks. cos i really tengah miss the sweetheart.

regards,
