yep..I'm back from my long long holiday...but before I blog about my holiday...there's something I must share and remember....

Yong completed the marathon on my birthday 7th Dec 2008 in only 5 hr 40min and 37 sec...* be there's a 7 there....*

some pictures i took from the site:

back tomorrow....

yea! yong is coming back tomorrow...he acted so stupid yest with the webcam and that's why I love him...hahahaha....for acting stupid...he should be on the plane now...flying back to Singapore...

Today I had no mood at all to do any studying so...I didn't do any...so guilty...haiz...

Am counting down to my trip to US....12 more days!!!

Some thoughts..

Not sure if I should post this (lest others might read it)..but anyways...

Yest I went home and bumped into Mic's friends working on their blogshop...yea...4 '16' yrs old wanting to start a 'business'...nothing wrong with that...very commendable actually..I only started my Yahoo Auction booth in Poly?? so its actually very adventurous of them to start something on their own...I mean with almost every kid having their own blogshops..why not..I don't see harm in doing so...but I must warn...(mic if you read this....please please think about it)

its ok when friends come together and chit chat about clothes, makeup, boyz...but when you start a business together..don't let comments by each other or monetary issues affect your friendship..it can seriously make or break it...even sisters fight over nitty gritty stuff..lest to mention friends..my 2 cents worth of advice as a sister...

Also, next advice is..don't spend too much on the 'stocks'..I mean...its good to have stocks..but I think your 'stocks' should for the starters come without costs...things made by you or your friends, clothes, bags, shoes, makeup, accessories bought and never worn or only worn 1-2 times...these are items with no 'costs' and can result in more profits or even better - clear your clutter...treat it like a testing ground..to test the market and see what sells and what doesn't...what's other's treasures may be your rubbish (whatever the phrase is la)...when you travel for leisure than buy 'stocks' that are able to give you a better margin of sales (don't understand ask me)..things in Singapore are not really cheap nor really unique (if you can find it ppl also can ya??) so think twice...

its good to have the idea..really...but if you are pouring money into it..i just think you should think twice, thrice or even 4-5 times...if it will work...will others buy? what if no one buys?money is already a sunk cost....its never coming back..you might need to sell lesser than cost..no money made..than what??argue ma???think about all these ok michelle???love you lots!


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

Next, to my be...if you read this..I drove to work today..coz I woke up early..haha..furnie??ppl late than drive car..I woke up early TO DRIVE the car...coz bishan here after 830am not much parking lots la...hehe..no accidents...later I go hm will report again...

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

My mum...haiz...told her Metro sales is today..she say 'Nnnnoooooo.......Dec....21st Dec.........' CMI...I lie to her for what?!!!?!?!?

Anyway, today seems like a crazy day..coz everyone asking me out..Gevelle, Niu, Charles and Ami....guess who I pick????Ami la!!!!hahah...maybe after that than meet Charles bah....my secret lover...hohoho.....(be..I joking only..)

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

OK...back to work...

So Stupid...

I woke up at 7am thinking that I have a call...guess what..my invite's timing was wrong...it should be from 4pm-5pm (US timing) which is 8am-9am (my timing)..so now I'm working le lo....I dun care man..I will leave work early today for this cock-up by US..hahaha....

Realised I've been ultra forgetful recently..yesterday I was studying for my paper this sunday..than I realised that I've forgotten to prepare for 1 more qn..so today is for that qn..I will need to re-draft the whole answer..haiz..I just want to get it over and done with...my pantry auntie's eldest son just finished his master and he's gg for his doctorate..some smart ass man!!I am gg to stop at this le..no master or doctorate...part time studying is really tough..kudos to my sis, yong, prem and all those that did part time courses before...

I miss him soooo much.....

scratched the car..

ok...i went out for coffee last night with ami and mic..when I came home...i scratched the skirting of the car when I didn't do a wide enough left turn....think I was dreaming of something else..when i heard the 'ggggrrrrrrrrraaaaaaaaaeeeeeee' its too late le...the body kit looked damn bad last nite..with a major dent and scratches....die le..hahaha.....but anyway KY wanna change car right? so this is another excuse for him and he can make me pay a little lo....( dun you dare! ) I know that the scratch is cnfm there...but I wasn't sure about the dent..aiya...if wanna repaint i dun mind paying the money..BUT the car was due for servicing a llllllllllllllooooooooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnnnggggggggggggg time and KY still never bring it in for servicing ( playing the 'blame' game! )..so I think he must be considering a new car...haha...at this point of time....are you sure?? with my driving skills??hahaha...but I am really starting to enjoy driving..ok..I might suck at it...BUT COME ON....HOW MANY TIMES DO I GET TO DRIVE A YEAR????3-4 TIMES MAX!!! SO STOP BLAMING ME HOR!!!!!!

If I had a car at most a few scratches here and there and I'll get use to it....but I only drive the bloody thing at most 5 times max...so when I get it..must drive to the max to recap what I paid over S$3500 for!!!

OK...here's the damage, this was taken with me squatting down..so it looks more obvious..when I stand up..can only see the major white scratch and not the line scratch....:

Looks like got dent??nope.its not its the design of your car mr look...and the top white line is a reflection...only 1 llllllloooooooooonnnnnnnnnngggggggggg scratch + a more obvious scratch......the rest are either reflections of design of the car...felt a little more relieved today (haha) becoz it wasn't as bad as it looks compared to last night....hohoho....an wei wo zhi zi...BUT..I AM OK and I will still drive to pick you up..if you don't see me at the airport...it could mean something else....hahaha....traffic jam la!!!

LOVE YOU LOTS...and sorry for scratching my beloved Jazzie......
