Topshop

On a shopping day with Winnie, I saw this really nice dress from Topshop whichI really love.

To my disappointment, the store only has 1 piece and that is a defect piece.
It is sold out island-wide.

I love the dress so much that I am really tempted to buy that defected piece, but Winnie stopped me.
:(

Anyway, I found the dress online!

Isn’t this pretty!
The colours are so bright and cheerful, and I think this dress is very ‘me’!

Now, I am considering if I should pay 32 pounds, plus the expensive shipping cost to ship it from Europe to Singapore.
Singapore is selling this dress for $93 and it is sold out.

Nike Breakfast Run

I didn’t managed to get any photos of the above run from Berry.
Instead, Nike uploaded their photos on their site.

Winnie stayed at my place the night before the run, to make sure that I don’t overslept.
I had a pretty good rest, though she complaint that she don’t sleep well on a strange bed and I used my fingers to dig her mouth in the middle of the night. *shrugs*

To our amazement, Berry wasn’t late!
Marvin sent her to East Coast and they were only 5 minutes later then us.

I was rather excited as this is my first outdoor run. :D

 
Before the run start, we were made to gather for a short briefing, and they did some introduction on Nike’s latest product, the Nike Sports Band.
As you can see, Winnie was not paying attention and biting her nails.


We did some warmup exercise.
Here, you can have a clear view of Winnie’s big backside.
She dressed herself in matching pink top, pink shorts, pink shoes and I suspect even pink sportsbra.


The run! 
I saw the camera and managed to smile and pose as usual.
Berry got a funny expression and Winnie is almost in the air.
I think I’m the only one whom look good! Muahahahaahaha.


Winnie won the Nike Sports Band in the lucky draw!
I don’t know why didn’t she pose for a picture for the official photographer when she got the band.
Prolly because she know she had no make up on. LOL.

Anyway, I dropped VERY obvious hints that I like that sports band very much, hoping that she will give it to me.
She didn’t loh. I bet she ignored me on purpose.


What is a breakfast run without free breakfast? Hehe.
The complimentary breakfast was sandwiches from Subway and you can see Auntie Berry snatching food here.

Anyway, the run was supposed to be 2km.
When we turned up, they said it is 3km and it’s too late for me to back out.
I think we completed the 3km in 23 minutes, which was quite an achievement for me.

BUT! We were still one of the last few. Haha.
Winnie and Berry could have finished the run faster, but they waited for me and made sure I don’t stop running and start walking. Haha!

Looking forward to the Shape Run 2008!

Lazy Sunday

I caught 2 movies over the weekend.
Get Smart on Friday night with Marvin and Berry at Marina Square, and Don’t Mess with Zohan on Sat night with Ju, Eric and Elyn at Plaza Singapura.

Both shows were hilarious!
Though Ray preferred Zohan.

===========================================

After the movie yesterday, Ray persuaded Eric and Ju to watch soccer at the coffeeshop at my place.
I wanted to join them after I bath, but felt too comfortable in my PJs and air-conditioned living room, so I PSP-ed at home instead. 
The match only ended around 5am.

Ray is on duty on Sunday, and we wanted to go for breakfast before he goes to work.
Which means we are only left with 2 hours of sleep.
In the end, I didn’t managed to wake for breakfast. Haha.
He went back to office and I slept in, even missing the 12pm class at Amore.

Felt depressed when I woke up, as I slept my breakfast and gym class away. :(
I must not waste my Sunday!
Luckily, I managed to get a slot for Brazilian Wax at Cathay Strips.

Today, I tried White Chocolate Vanilla Wax, which is supposed to be less painful.
I’m feeling clean and yummy. Haha.

Went to Jane’s place after that and slacked my whole day away.
I lost $20 in mahjong!!! Argh.

Back home now and Monday is starting soon.
Sianzation!

Sex and the City (again)….

With my recent promotion and pay increment, I feel that I ought to reward myself. A little.

 
I am still not over my Sex and the City craze.
And I am seriously contemplating getting the collector’s giftset from Amazon.com.
It cost USD200.00, and more than SGD300.00 after I add in the shipping.

Should I?? Should I not??

Let’s Walk

Butter got her third vaccination, and is free to roam the streets! 

On the day of her third jab, we brought her to East Coast MacDonald’s for dinner.
She was put on lease, but she refused to walk.
I tried to tug on the lease, and she tried to wriggle out of it.
It was probably due to the fact that she had never really step out of the house, even though she is 6 months old.
In the end, I carried her in my arms and even place her on the seat so that she won’t be scared.

Yesterday, I put her on lease again and tried to walk her around the void deck.
To my delight, she follows me!
She no longer tries to wriggle out of her lease and is quite easy to manage.
The only thing is, she don’t dare to climb up or down the stairs and I have to drag her along.

Woke up early on Sunday morning for Nike Breakfast Run (I will probably blog about this in my next blog, when I have the photos from Berry), and came directly to Ray’s place after the 3km run.

Decided to bring Butter out for a walk, while I get breakfast for him.
And Butter climbs up and down the stairs willingly, without me dragging her! Haha.
It was a long walk to and forth, and I bet she is tired out.

Right now, as I’m blogging away, she fall asleep beside me in the room.
Haha.
I love my Butter.

Mission Failed

So, I google-ed for a presentable resignation letter sample, typed and edited my letter for 15 minutes, put it in a nce envelope.

The last time I did this, was more than 1 year ago, in the current company - Airfreight Department.
My Airfreight Manager rejected my resignation, and transferred me to the Sales Department when I was promoted to Executive.
I report directly to my General Manager now, and he increased my basic salary by $300 within a year.

So, despite the fact that my GM did helped me and gave me alot of opportunities, I decided to take a pay cut and accept HSBC’s offer, for the sake of my brighter future.

So, I tried to tender my resignation letter to my GM.

So, he rejected my letter, as expected.

So, he put up a counter-offer which is too good, too attractive for me to say no.
‘Too good’, is an understatement. It’s damn farking good la!

So, I’m staying put in my current company.
For the rest of my life, perhaps. Haha.

So, my only regret is……. Goodbye my dream.
Goodbye to the world of banking, of trading, of finance, of sleek suits, of smart offices, of millions and billions and zillions, of climbing up the corporate ladder….
Goodbye to the world which I had never been able to stepped into.
Goodbye to the dream which I failed to embark upon.
