My room...(updates!)

Oh well as mentioned in my last post on my final touch up. Here are the changes...

Dad gave me a coffee table that was meant to place in the living room but I placed it with my 29" TV and DVD player instead

This wall remains unchanged...with my uncle's late painting... I moved the 'ladder display' behind my daybed

I also moved the cabinet and place the lamp in the middle of the room

Lastly I decorated the wall of my study table and rearrange things on it. I used to place the TV here. Now things look better :P

I think 'final touches' in the room requires something; Plants or cactus...what do you think? hehe

Will update again....

Final days in November 2008...

Hmm I took this picture earlier and well I look fair instead. Maybe I wear powder on my face that made me look fairer. Otherwise I think I look darker than before ever since I use the papaya astringent.

It's 8 days to Annual D&D and I guess I have the idea of what to wear but yet to find the outfits for myself. They posted some pictures in TD intranet. Most probably I'll start finding stuffs on the weekends.

Ok looking forward for DEC 08...

THINGS TO LOOK FORWARD IN DEC 08

*Annual Dinner & Dance at Clark Quay (to have fun!)

* Christmas gathering with friends

* New hairdo(Not again!)

*Hari Raya Haji(They gave me PH!Yey)

*New Year Resolutions(it's a yearly 'practice'! Hehe)

* Final touches of my room makeover!

Well that's all for now. Meanwhile I have a pic of Kayden wearing Syabil's outfit. Ain't he adorable??? :P

Review: A Love To Kill

Actually I finished watching this drama above on last Sunday itself so it took me till 1am to know the ending. The story is kinda slow and dragging but this drama is for those who love Rain and love story. I bought this DVD because I love Rain but because it's a love story, it brought me tears instead. I cried for hours non-stop especially the ending, which later to realize that I'm quite emotional afterall...(Gulp!)I would rate 3 out of 5 for this drama. If they change the ending, I might want to rate higher???haha :P

I would also like to share about my thoughts about Cleo Magazine(Singapore for Dec 08) where they featured an article about "Are Psychics The New Therapists?" I can't deny that I used to try doing it (alot last year) by doing tarot readings and numerology. But how true is that is all up to you to decide and not to let fate decide for you. As for me I take it for fun but not in a serious way. Let me give you an example of tarot readings I went and what the reader told me.

During that time my priority was my career and my future and I went for tarot reading. That was in 2006. He told me that I wasn't happy and there will be a backstabbing in the company and I will eventually leave the company. After looking back he was very right.

In 2007 I got a new job and the same reader told me that I will also not be happy(which I think I needed to do something about it!) and will lot stay long in the company and will job-hop instead. I can't deny that when I join the next company I wasn't happy at all(mainly because of personal issues) but took the initiative to be comfortable with the environment and colleagues and accept challenges at work. Almost 2 years later...here I am still in TD 'at my comfort zone'. This is the most challenging part because it shows that tarots are mainly showing you the outcome of a situation but I'm proving it the other way. So bottomline we decide our own fate and this is our life and the way we want it to be.

Next...D&D is around the corner, still have no idea of the look. Haiz...13 more days to go...Why Chicago????

And wonder if there's really such thing as get 3 shades fairer in just 2 weeks? I felt like I'm getting darker already. Glad that my pimples have gone. Thanks to the astringent and the 'miracle bar'. The 'miracle bar' was introduced by my aunt and my mum bought it at $180. It sound crazy for a small bar of soap that cost a bomb. It's good to use but for $180 is lil too much. Don't u think so???

I'm off on the weekends so I'm going to chill at home and get lots of DIY beauty treatments. I wanna mask my face(I bought a whitening mask from Lucky Plaza!), hair treatment, body scrubs and epilate my unwanted hairs and beauty sleep. May I wake up looking 'gorgeous'. Yeah right Erwina(slaps face!)

My off day...

I woke up real early and made breakfast for my Dad and myself. Cleaned my room and continue watching he 3rd disc of 'A love to kill' drama series. Can't deny 'Rain' aka Jeong Ji-Hoon is damn hot and cute. I really have a 'crush' on him for years!!! haha. Have yet to finish watching the story. But however I learnt something from the story. Not sure what's the ending but I believe to have your own guts and feelings towards someone not because that someone has sacrificed alot for you or to put it this way; to be with/love someone out of symphathy or for revenge(oops!!!). I only watch the episodes on my off days so most likely I will finish watching it by next weekends...hehe

Well I planned to work out. Been ages since I did that. Looking at photos of myself 3 years ago with my tan and tone body, I wish I can have the body again. I'll try. I need self-discipline and self motivation to make it happen. Wish me luck. That's my mission for 2008. I can and will do it!!!:P

2nd week of 11th month...

Where shall we start??? Ok lets start with work. 'Gems' has taken 6 agents to go reservations for batch 2. Glad I'm not one of them yet. So other 6 from RS replaced them. They are new except Adilah. The weird part is that I dreamt that I'll go reservation for batch 5 soon. Crazy!! No way!!!

I'm on treatment for my face. Nope... I did not go to my dermatologist for AHA peel. The other day I went Lucky Plaza and bought papaya astringents, dosage of level 3(that's the highest). It's like toner, to use it after washing my face and it works man! The scarring on my face have dramatically fade off and pimples shrink in a day!It does have peeling effect but no as bad as the AHA peel. 100ml bottle cost me $8.00!!! BUT after using it about a week I realized that I look darker than before!! Oh no....:(

D&D is on the 5th Dec 08 and the theme is 'Chicago'. Till now I don't have any idea what to wear or the hairstyle...haiz

Last Friday I managed to rearrange my room again with the help of my Dad. I love it this time. Have yet to rearrange things on the computer table. Will upload pics of my room soon.

I also planned a mini celebration for Wan Seen's birthday at my house. Bought her gifts and baked her a cake but did not look like a 'professional' cake you'll see at the bakery shop though! haha but hope she loved it :)

This is the cake I made for Wan Seen

And the gifts from me and Pau

Yesterday I met Aishah(nyekngok) on the way to work and update ourselves and exchanged numbers(again!). She changed numbers like 3x for the past 2 yrs!!!haha while I'm still a faithful Starhub customer since I was 16!!!

Since today my off and 2nd day of fasting, I'm going to watch Korean drama DVD I bought at a special price cos there's my 'Rain' as the leading actor. I love him alot!!! That's why I always said I 'wish' my dream guy looks like him(mata sepet hidung penyek!!lol)...dream on Erwina!!!

And been addicted to a song 'Breathless' by Shayne Ward cos the song reminded me of someone...

BREATHLESS

If our love was a fairytale

I would charge in and rescue you

On a yacht baby we would sail

To an island where we'd say I do And if we had babies they would look like you

It'd be so beautiful if that came true

You don't even know how very special you are

[Chorus] You leave me breathless

You're everything good in my life

You leave me breathless

I still can't believe that you're mine

You just walked out of one of my dreams

So beautiful you're leaving me

Breathless And if our love was a story book

We would meet on the very first page

The last chapter would be about

How I'm thankful for the life we've made And if we had babies they would have your eyes

I would fall deeper watching you give life

You don't even know how very special you are

[Chorus] You must have been sent from heaven to earth to change me

You're like an angel

The thing that I feel is stronger than love believe me

You're something special

I only hope that I'll one day deserve what you've given me

But all I can do is try

Every day of my life

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

November comes.... Oh well...it's the 2nd last year of the month and today my 1st off day of the month. Basically did my usual routine of paying bills and doing marketing. And then realized that I still have all the time of the day, I decided to do something; room makeover for my parents...yup! It took me about 4 hrs to clear the unnecessary stuffs like boxes which I think they should be kept in the storeroom instead. To make it livelier, I placed a carpet and some vases to really look like a room. I also put some photo frames, some displays on the table and cordless phone in the room(at the side table) since my mum's always on the phone almost 24hrs!!! The rest of the time I spent in the bathroom cleaning and clearing my 'rubbish'. I know it sounds weird but I actually placed some soft toys in the bathroom! Almost perfect!.My mum came back 1st and she kinda like it but...she thinks putting the vases might not be a good options due to the 2 kids. My dad has no comments but kept on looking at the room. It assume he's alright with it. How about my room then?? It looks fine as before but decided to rearrange again. I think this time I really need a space to write or draw etc. I need a table to put my TV and my DVD player and put at a corner. Since my dad and I will be off on Friday, we'll work our butt out to rearrange my room again. Well last week my long-time friend got married. Same age as me. My mum attended the wedding since I was working on that Saturday. Envy? Jealous? Hmm...'Jodoh tak ke mana kan?' In Chinese term 'Yuen Fen Ba'. Hahaha :) Ok short for now. I need to take shower and then head to sleep. I'm on 8am shift this week! P/S: I took leave on Wednesday just to watch the US election mind you!!! hahaha :P
