New addition to the family:) I warmly welcome you baby Nadine. My baby niece's name is Nadine Sonya Lim Min. She's such a sweetie. I didn't managed to visit my sister and baby Nadine at Thomson Medical. I was on flight to New York City on the very day she was born. I am so blessed to have such a healthy niece and she's really the apple of everyone's eyes! Thank goodness we're staying in the same block. I can visit baby Nadine any time I want.

My crazy cousin calls baby Nadine the Chronicles of Nadine. HAHAHA! I love carrying her. She's super responsive and she has a dimple just like her yiyi here. We have the same dimple on the right hand side and my Aunty believes that Nadine and I got it from my beloved grandmother. But baby Nadine's dimple definitely much deeper than mine. At an infant age, her dimple rather deep so imagine if she's older? Definitely pretty!! Aiyo, I cant stop talking about baby Nadine. OK I SHALL STOP NOW!

Back to my NYC flight. I really had a great time bonding with 2 other batch girls, Diana and Sharen. They really made the 6days NYC flight a breeze. The 3 of us bunked in and it was crazy fun! We were having PJ party every night and we talked and gossip too much. Some of my colleagues commented while on the way back to Singapore that 3 nights ain't enough for the 3 of us. Apparently on board whole working, we're still yakking continuously whenever we had spare time.

Diana and Sharen taught me how to love flying all over again. The both of them are still very enthusiastic about their job and they made me fall in love with flying once again. Initially I was quite sick and bored of flying. After doing a NYC flight together, I do not have the slightest idea of quitting at least for the next 3 years or so. Both of them kept telling me how grateful they are flying and this is the only job you do not have to be desk bound, meet deadline reports, seeing your stupid obnoxious boss or jealousy colleagues everyday. Best of all we get too many off days in a month!

Ok I shall love flying after being nagged by 2 love batchies of mine!!

NYC

2011-04-17T03:54:00.005+08:00

Leaving for NYC on Monday and I'm getting all excited thinking about it. The only motivation for this flight would be my favorite batch girl, Sharen on my flight! So happy! We will be going downtown to Manhattan, 5th ave and Madison ave for some good shopping shite. Not me but for Sharen. I'm going to have a budget shopping spree! HAHAHA so contradicting.

Honestly speaking, I still prefer my own personal space when in outstation but it's totally exceptional for Sharen. I love talking to her. She's one of the most down to earth batch girl. She's super humble and I would definitely see her as a good example to follow. We're going to have an awesome time in NYC!

Hopefully my niecey can wait for me to be back frm NYC before coming out into this world. I want to be there to witness her first breath. So many things to look forward when I touch down from NYC. Oh yea Juliet and I are planning for a shopping trip in August. We're still deciding on the destination. Either BKK, HKG or KOREA? Still deciding tho. Finally a well spent holiday together without the guys. No one to bark at us when we take too long deciding on a certain dress, or when we spend too much time on mani or pedicure. I'm pretty sure this is going to be a good gf-gf quality time together.

I need to start on my weekly runs again. I need to strengthen my ankles. I always accidentally trip on myself very often in my working sandals. Talking about work, I need to requisite a new set of uniform. Some senior commented on how old and discolored my uniform is. Told my senior that my uniform is 4 years old and they were in awe. HAHAHA! No one use their uniform for more than 1.5years. So damn lazy to take measurement and the worst part is I have to go back to the tailor twice. Stupid first fitting and second fitting. So in total I have to visit the tailor 3 times before collecting it. MAFUN! I

AWESOME!!! I cant freaking sleep now man. Drank a cup of teh tarik just now and it's freaking 5am now and I have to wake up at 1045am for church later. OH MAN!

TIME TO HIT THE SACKS!

Lovin' everyday of my life

2011-04-16T16:54:00.003+08:00

Yes, I'm really loving everyday of my life!

I simply can't wait the arrival of my little niecey! I'm going to treat her like a little princess but fret not, I won't spoil her! I'm going to give her the best childhood like how I had mine. I always thank my sister for giving me the best childhood memory anyone could ask for! Up to now I can vividly remember what we played during the holidays. Oh man, I really missed the younger days!

Am studying for my insurance exam! Haven't been studying for so many years and it's really a torture reading so much text! The only consolation getting my insurance licence would be a better life from James, my family and I. Heard from James that I will be getting a basic salary and I treat it as an extra income. :)

My exam's approaching and I better get my ass down and start studying!

Life's good =)

I LOVE APRIL TO BITS!!!

A new addition to the family. My sister's due in 2 weeks' time. I simply can't wait for the baby to arrive. Finally my rank has been promoted. Am a YIYI NOW!!! HAHAHA. Sad to say the baby won't have any cousins from the maternal side to play with but only dogs. heh.

Am currently in LAX and I am loving my stay. My batch girl's here with me. She was activated for my flight due to shortage of one crew. Happy or wad? But Humans are funny. When I am alone on flight, I always wished for a batch girl to be rostered a long flight with me. But now when my batch girl is rostered a long flight with me, I've always secretly wished I am alone and do not have to entertain anyone. After flying for 4 years, I think I am pretty used of being independent and doing things alone. Nonetheless, I am enjoying my stay with her=)

I managed to stop shopping for 1.5months. I've fast from using credit card for more than 2 weeks. I really hope to see improvement. Just read one of my secondary school fren's blog, she's newly wed and she said getting married and having a new new house concurrently can burn one's pocket. She saved 50K and all was wiped out within few months. OMG! Time to get into real business. No more impulsive shopping, no more 1 year 2 bags policy, no more expensive holiday. CHEAP CHEAP getaway will do. I really wished I could turn back time to my first year of flying. Wished I did saved more. I was young and stupid. enuff said. SIGHS!

Anyway, on a happier note I always believe God will make a way where there seems to be no way!

Higher commitment

The duck n I sealed our first home together. After 7 years together, we had an agreement to apply for a HDB flat together. Excited and having a mixed feeling about our upcoming home. Our duck pad block is 258B #09-41. It is projected to finish at 2015. I am having mixed feelings because we have to get married in 3years' time. Am I ready for it? Am I able to leave home for good? Are my parents ok staying by themselves. Am I going to be home sick forever? Should I quit flying? Whose going to do the house work if I'm still flying? Renovation cost, wedding expenses... The lists goes on.'

Why do adults face so much worries in life? Time to pray for wisdom and strength. Many people asked why apply for 4 rooms instead of 5 rooms or EC? The duck n I applied for 4 rooms coz I don't wanna be in-debt young. I wanna live a comfortable life. Able up spend freely, don't have to worry about paying to banks or servicing our Loans forever. Anyway I made a huge improvement on my credit card expenses. I spent lesser theses days. I pay using cash instead of credit card. Have to give myself a pat on the shoulder:) happy like shit!

I always wonder if I ever quit flying can I adjust to the pay cut or the working pattern? I'm so so used to my working schedule. So many off days in between flights. I'll confirm get a pay cut if I work in a different industry. I hate to be desk bound too. Maybe the only similar work schedule will be sales?! Still in doubts. But I'll def not do 9-6. I can't be desks bound. I am too used to walking, running for time and knocking off at ridiculous timing. No 9-6pm jobs for me. Luckily I have 1 year's time frame and think about my working advancements. 1 year to my gratuity. The amount am getting's not fantastic but I am thankful nonetheless.

I need a nap now. Am drowsy from the medicine I took. Sick again. I need multi vits.

Otw to kl

2011-03-08T04:33:00.001+08:00

Hungry~

2011-03-08T01:56:00.001+08:00

Beehoon goreng at 2am:) shiok!!

Amm back!!

2011-03-07T19:12:00.002+08:00

Am a lazy blogger. I admire people who blogs everyday. 24hours' too little for anyone. Few days back I was looking forward to kl. The duck n I n some other friends drove up to kl n I've always loved road trips. Road trip is a good therapy for heart to heart talk with your partner. But sad to say this trip we didn't communicate much coz of the noise made from the car n the usage of walkie.

I need another cheap hols with my duck. I wish for a skinny dip with him under the stars:) hahaha! In my dreams:)

Yay! Going haneda soon! Finally, real authentic jap food. Have been eating a lot theses few days. I've consulted my company doctor about my tiredness n the doctor confirmed that I have lack of carbs each meal so that explains my tiredness n fatigue. Plus my metabolism rate relatively high so I need food to break down the energy needed.

Ok, I better not brag about my metabolism rate coz I know one day it will def slow down. I need a complex diet. I need to exercise regularly. Swim and run:) exercise buddy anyone?

Blog more another day aye?

Revived

2010-11-23T20:43:00.004+08:00

Am back again. I will only blog if I am damn bloody bored outstation with free wifi.

I'm in Los Angeles. Suffering a very bad jet lag I only sleep Singapore time. So during the day time(US) I ended up sleeping instead of going out. Anyway it's winter in LAX and the clothes here are dull and boring. So, I ended up doing internet shopping. I think I will buy more stuff online. Too much hassle walking, dodging and squeezing with the crowd.

So happy that I am checking out tomorrow. Can't wait to play with the dogs, especially Decca. Oh yes christmas' coming but I can't count down to xmas day. How depressing! I was badly affected by the fact that I am not going to be around for xmas eve but managed to be around and destroyed my chance of being around. Haha quite complicated but yes, I destroyed my chance of being around for xmas eve. I managed to change my work schedule with a girl and I was complacent and I told her to get back to me in 2 days' time. After 2 days, I decided to get back to her first telling her I want to exchange work schedules. Little did I know, she actually changed her work schedule with another girl already. I was damn piss n sad can. I actually cried, kept cursing myself whole day !!!!!!! Never know someone so stupid like me exist!!! WTFFFFFFFFFFFF right! Got so good offer why didn't I grab the opportunity?

I showed my emotions too obvious and the duck discovered my sadness and scolded me for my insanity. He scolded me for wanting to be around during festive season so much. Scolded me for my sian look. scolded me that my job scope has no certainties being around during festive season. Scolded me for everything. We even quarreled and I nearly made things turn ugly.

He told me that partying here and there are not his priorities now, his priority now will be his degree. He's very busy with school assignments and I should not distract him with my crankiness. Actually why I made a big fuss about being around this xmas eve was just to be with him. Counting down to xmas with the person you love is a blessing. He thinks otherwise anyway! I was being told not to go near him when he's doing his research and assignment. I need to occupy my time. I need to start meeting all my gfs again!! I want to change my off days for work:) Time to earn more and save more too.

2010-07-24T00:54:00.002+08:00

Damn pissed, damn pissed, damn pissed!!!!

when will I ever haf the courage to take the first step? I do not see any advancement at all. I need faith!

2010-07-16T11:57:00.003+08:00

Woke up today and am feeling very happy. I always enjoy spending time with my most lovelove dog, rocky!
Although at times he can be quite an irritant. Every morning he will wake me up at 7.30am just to pee. He's old and he can't hold his bladder well. FYI, he loves sleeping in air-conditioned room, just like a baby. So irritating! I forgive him lah, anything for my dog. heh.

Kkaes, am going to snuggle up the bed with the duck and my dog. It's finally raining. damn shiok!

Singaporeans

2010-07-07T20:50:00.005+08:00

Today's a happy day. I worked with my aunty and her boyfriend. This kind of opportunity comes once in a life time. Had fun working with my aunty and her boyfriend and I hope theses once in a life time thing will become a frequent thing because I get lots of benefit working with them.
Anyway, after work we tabaoed food at the kopitiam food court and to my dismay, some Singaporeans are such a fool. They buy a $4.50 hokkien mee and they expect a $450 service from the service provider at the kopitiam food court. One word to describe Singaporeans, SHAMELESS!! I have tons of foreign colleagues complaining to me that Singaporeans' customers are the worst to handle. I had no choice but to agree instantly. Singaporeans are not gracious at all. KIASU, KIASI number 1. I feel so shy being a Singaporean. We, the newer generations of Singapore have to change the attitude of Singaporeans. Sad to say that holding onto lift doors, saying the word "pleases" and "thank yous" are no longer in our vocabulary. Next time I make sure I will train my nieces or nephews the right way man. Upbringing is so important. Sighs, I think too much for my own good lah. Forget it.

Am down with a very bad flu and unfortunately, the duck caught the virus from me. I hope we can recover fast and work hard in our jobs :)

July's a good month and I shall not rant a single bit. *superduperjumpinintheskybeamsbeams*

Yay, the duck and I are going on a holiday with our friends in October. AUSSIELAND! For the first time the duck is taking the carrier I am working for. At last! I've yet to book the tickets. Prays hard this holiday will be materialized and that we will enjoy the company of each other. Every year duck and I will go on a holiday.
Let's see...
2006: Chiang rai/Bangkok. Thailand
2007: Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam
2007: Bangkok, Thailand
2008: Taipei, Taiwan

Can't wait to go Los Angeles, Las Vegas, London, Manchester, Paris and many many more with the duck:)) I so wanna go on a holiday with my friends too.

Kkaes, tomorrow nails day. I hate doing my nails, so wasting time man.

Later match... for GERMANY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Going to nap awhile and wake up to watch the match. Rooting for

Am finally back*

2010-06-30T10:08:00.002+08:00

I am finally back home:) can't wait to crash on my bed man! Overnight flight makes me look haggard and worn out. Am so scared when I reach 30 I look 40. Sighs, I'll blame it on this job man.

Currently in the cab now and I feel nauseous typing this! I think I'm gong to throw up soon.

Yay, last sector and I am back to SINGER ISLAND:) Great job! Another great accomplishment, I spent $70 for this whole flight. I was actually rostered a Moscow-Houston flight but I swap for a Dubai-Istanbul flight instead. The reasons for changing of flight would be the duration of the former rostered flight. Doubt I wanna be away from home for 10days man! I will definitely miss all my poochie friends and family.

I just went out for breakfast and I love love indian food. I suspect my forefathers are dark people. I love hip-hop and R&B music to death! Anyway, I have a long list of stuffs to do when I am in SINGERLAND.

30June- Leeli for breakie @ airport/ maybe butter
01July- Eme pretty babe/ Nails:)
02July- My chowchow babe/ Sharshers for tooth extraction
03July- FINALLY MARINA BAY SANDS for a wedding dinner* SQ netball fren getting hitched. (how much to bao man?) clueless.
04July- Church and lunch with Fam*

Finally a well deserved off days after so many back to back flights. Talking about back to back tiring flights means more money. More money means save money to me. But I have a very splurging problem. I have tons of clothes that are still new. I hate repeating clothes. Actually I hardly repeat my clothes, that's explain the "tons of clothes that are still new". Sighs! My mom has been praying for me faithfully for me to kick that bad implusive habit. I really hope to buy a property. I do not want to fly and not being able to save. Aiyah, it all boils down to me problem lah.

Kkaes, am going for a swim now. I want toned toned arms,legs,stomach.

Istanbul*

2010-06-28T12:17:00.002+08:00

I'm back blogging. Decided to delete my old posts due to security reasons. My bag was stolen last year and in my diary I stupidily wrote down my blog user name and password, but am still using the same blog address.

I miss blogging and I think it is a very good way to kill time outstation. Am in Istanbul now and I love SHERATON hotel.Am enjoying the free wifi, watching fashion tv and enjoying the seaview. We had free buffet breakfast yesterday and it was good. Afterwhich I went for a swim. 10laps:) yay. great accomplishment! Ate one meal yesterday and I woke up today with a very bad sunburnt and my body was aching. But it's all worth it. Am Working towards my 50kg goal. 2.5kg to go:)

Yay, going back to Dubai later means 2 more days to SINGAPORE!!!! I miss Singapore.

Will update later and post pics again! hugs*
