Officially 24

Time: 10.45am
Location: Office

I'm finally back in the office after 2 days leave, including Sat & Sun, I've officially slacked for 4 days:)

Clap your hands say Yeah! I'm now 24! I don't know if there's anything to do with age, 'cos I felt like it's just another day that makes one feel miserable. Esp. women. It's the day that makes one older. It's different when you're 17 going 18, you're becoming legal. Now you're just getting older.

This birthday must've been the most quiet one of all. Last year, I was at Zouk, glupping down Long Island Tea...this year, I was having vegetarian meal with my dad at AMK central. (Mom called to say she'll stay at home 'cos she's too sleepy...see, I'm losing my significance)

I received a Topshop voucher (which I bought an Adidas sneakers and a top with), a NBC purse and 'coffin set' with 2 lovely necklaces from and another Topshop top from my colleague. Mom and bro + his wife each gimme an ang pao, and dad gimme a limited edition S$50 note, which I've neatly tucked away in my diary. I also went shopping with the voucher and got a brand new sassy haircut!

The funny thing about my birthday is, I always seem to receive the same thing...this has happened at least 3 years in a row! Haha... I guess I'm just predictable. I got a Linkin Park album for my 19th birthday..which I already had... I got 4 bags (2 identical ones) for my 21st birthday... 2 wallets for my 23rd birthday, and this year, 2 identical tops (one I bought with the voucher and one from my colleague)... Hui and Pauline gimme a NBC coffin set which I have been collecting (Bless them for remembering that's what I like) ...but the set was something that I had completed my collection for....errr..

But nevertheless, it's the thoughts that counts and I'm very happy that I get to spend time with people I care about. From today onwards, and for every year to come, I'll be celebrating my 24th birthday always... don't remind me.

I will be forever 24.

Back To Blogging

Time: 12.32pm
Location: Office

Yipee..the issue's coming to a close. I can finally get some good nights rest. Yoshiko came over to my place for about a week, so she's sleeping in my room. There's only 2 pillows in on my bed, so she's using one..and now I'm suffering from a stiff neck ('cos I'm so used to propping my head up with 2 pillows).

She's such a sweetie...bought my mom and me a bottle of perfume each. Gosh, I wish I am having her life now. Frequent travels, successful career and a husband that dotes on her (and vice versa).

She told me Andy (her hubby's younger bro) is dating her friend after they both came back from the Japan trip. Long distance romance..but oh-so-sweet.

I am fast approaching 24. Technically, I will be turningn 25 in 07, but being a year-end baby, turning older at a later stage is just one of the many perks. Other perks include having to achieve a lower passing grade for your NAPFA test...

(Darn, my top feels tigher...must've piled on the pounds again)

Was at Zouk for the Very Vintage party last Friday. A lot of girls came in elaborate vintage dresses and they all look really pretty....Singaporean girls are becoming prettier by the day.... as for the guys.... I only have 1 conclusion. Singapore guys are not very tall. I was at the dance floor, and non of them looked taller than 1.75m. Mind you, I was wearing flats that day. No luck with guys that day, except for one who said my purse was nice....(GO ON, say more!) Perhaps it was due to the late nights at work that I was having, I practically zonked out after 3 martinis. No, I don't get drunk... I get a little woozy.

Jade Cole from American's Next Top Model was at one of the fashion show for OPPT shop that night too. She's so tanned and statuesque...and I'm so jealous.

Bought Goong, the korean drama and though it started off relatively decent... it's such a drag now!!!! Serious, why can't the prince just say it out loud when he likes the girl...only reason I'm still sticking to it is because of the other guy – Yul, who looks like Zai Zai from F4. (Muaha..I sound like a groupie)

I am just rambling and rambling.... I so need to go shopping today..sigh*
