Surprise!

Mum and Winnie are going for their Europe trip today. Me, I'm wallowing. I'm sorry, I also don't know why I'm like this. For the next 10 days, I will be thinking of them day and night, what are they doing, which country are they in now, is it cold there or hot, and what are they eating, did they buy anything for me, do they miss Cherrie, and so on and so forth. Haha.

The victim here is not me. Its Cs actually. He has to hear me whine about going too. Cs and I were supposed to go, but meh. I was quite unimpressed with the tour. I want to plan my own epic trip. Lol. Overachiever. Kiasu. Yeah, that's me. Also, we didn't have the budget to go (main point). Hahaha.

Anyway, I have a consolation. Because I have the most awesome husband ever, Cs surprised me with a trip to KL!! Tomorrow!!

Its supposed to be my surprise birthday trip, and it coincides with our ROM. 8 August. The day we signed on that piece of paper.

I was doing my thing (whining) during our whatsapp conversation (poor Cs), and I think he got fed up (sorry baby), so he print screened the MAS ticket for me.

I saw it in the office. As I was reading it, I could feel myself smiling from inside out. Hehehe /shy.

But yeah, happy me. Feel so lucky. :)

Yayers! Four days vacation ahead, and 3 of them in KL. Thank you baby.

Leftover 2 slices of pizza from the night before for lunch is yum. Was so looking forward to lunch. In the morning, when I reheated the pizza, Cs walloped 2 slices immediately.

It smelled so good. I could barely contain myself. Have to keep waiting for 12:30 pm. Heh.

Happy Raya to anyone who is celebrating. 

Happy Holidays to everyone! 

Bye.

I'm going to go pack. Or finish packing. :)

From the new place

Hello. So I have finished moving house already. 

I'm typing from the new place already. The past week has been tiring and exhausting. Cs and I went back on Friday night for a final goodbye. Took photos, brought over our remaining stuff, and tried not to cry (me).

The bittersweet feeling passed quite quickly. Well, not really. I just try not to dwell on it. Besides, we had no time to dwell. We were sort of thrown into it. Meh. Oh well. I didn't even go to the pool one last time. Oh well. Not that missing it.

 

Panoramic shot taken by Cs. Feel like crying looking at these photos. Dammit all that talk about getting over it already. 

But its so damn messy. We stripped the house almost bare in the end. Cs was being too nice to the new owners. He was picking up rubbish here and there, throwing out things, whereas I try to make it look as bad as I can. =.= Women.

He even wanted to wash the toilets before we left, but I was like:

 

 NO! NO WAY!! I'm putting my foot down. Hahah women again. I sound damn ngiau ci. (Stingy)

 

 

 These days, we are just busy unpacking and getting used to our new "phase" of life now. 

***

I'll take photos around the house next time. This house I mean.

Its a Sunday afternoon. On days like these, we just laze around at home. I have Pacific Rim on as background noise now, and we just finished watching Grown Ups 2 just now. Well, I did. He fell asleep halfway. 

Last night I went over to Rita's place to party. Hahaa "party" is used very loosely here. Basically we all brought food. I made potato salad; Winnie made pasta salad; mum brought midori and some soda; Janet and Angela brought fried noodles, fried chicken ass, glizzards; Rita made kachangma (this I don't know how to describe or translate to English - its mostly taken by women after giving birth during the confinement period); and Mag made pork ribs. Definitely the highlight of last night.

After eating, we started drinking. Had tequila (its been a while for most of us), Midori, Kahlua (so sweet though, and lastly beer.

 

 

Last night. My skin is not that awesome. That was the result of S4's "beauty face" feature. Kah Ling was trying it out (she's using S3 btw and was trying to test the difference), and immediately she went wow! Haha it makes your skin looks awesome immediately. Cheat one.

 

 

This was taken with the normal camera. Ok not that much difference lah but I can tell. 

Speaking of this, I recently tried this new cream. It is SO GOOD that I stopped using my other skin care products, and am thinking of converting everything (toner, sun screen, foundation, powder, everything) if I can. Only thing is it is so pricey. Haih typical isn't it?

 

 This little tub costs RM 300+ I don't remember the exact amount. But yeah. Splurge. Both my parents used this, and they said it was awesome.

My mum tries a lot of skin care products so I trust her. If she says its awesome, its awesome. So I did my research online, and finished up my existing night cream, then went over to Spring and got myself one as well.

I have only been using it for 2 weeks? But I could tell the difference after week one. My skin felt smoother, and fairer. That was the case for me la. It might not work for you. :) Sharing is caring eh? 

Ok bye for now.

Bittersweet

So I might or might not have mentioned this before. I forgot. Memory of a duck. Sorry. But anyway, I'm moving. House I mean. Cs and I sold our house. The current one. Long story. So we are busy packing every night after work, trying to sort out our stuff. Which to keep, which to toss, which to pack, which to sell, and which to move to storage.

Which means I am exhausted most of the time. Physically and mentally. Winnie comes over to help sometimes and to force me to pack more stuff.

We are also trying to finish all the food that we have currently at home. Winnie is a big help here too. Hahah. Ocassionally she tries to eat my lunch too. My lunch for the next day at work, I mean. I try and stop her best I can. :)

The downside is, I am starting to forget things. I forgot where I packed those clothes, I forgot that we don't have biscuits at home. I forgot that I don't have my baking pans anymore. The other day, I was happily defrosting meat, chopping carrots (all the works for my casserole), when I realized I packed most of my kitchen stuff off already. Jeez woman.

Another downside is I'm guzzling way too much coffee to keep myself awake during working hours. I need sleep. I also need to workout. I also need to pack. Grr. We also need to eat dinner. Damn.

But yeah this is mainly what I have been doing these days. Yawn. Literally.

Actually its not that bad. I skipped packing tonight. Worked out for 1.5 hours - feel so proud of myself. Every time after exercising, I feel so good and ask myself why dont I do this everyday.  But next day i'll end up doing something else instead. Ah well. 

Change of topic.

In other news, I love my new phone. There are so many things to play with. It is so different to my iphone but I'm slowly getting the hang of it.

That day after work when Cs brought me to buy my phone, I felt elated and also slightly sad/mournful. Bitter sweet cos the woman informed me immediately: ok you cannot use ur iphone now. 

So fast!! Ya, I know its good la. Its what I wanted. Just that I didn't even get a chance to say goodbye to my phone.  No last words.

And I'm aware of how this sounds. Its an object. Its bimbotic. Its not alive. Out with the old, in with the new. 

Just realised this applies to my house too. I'm feeling bittersweet too. Mostly bitter. Hahaha. Can't blame me. There are so many memories everywhere. Oh well.

What else?

Cs dragged me to watch Pacific Rim (again) but this time in 3D. Feel sorry for me y'all. I had to watch Iron Man 3 three (3) times!! Three! Tiga! San! Before and after watching Iron Man 3, I also had to watch Iron Man 1 and 2. As much as I love Robert Downey Jr, that is a bit too much.

I guess this is his payback for my Sex and the City and Grey's Anatomy marathon. Hahah. Oh well.  

Ok bye. I am going to zzz..

My new phone

Hello. So after lusting/drooling over Cs' S4 for so long (or so it feels), he got me one too. Hehe. Actually my iphone contract ends on my birthday, which is in a couple of weeks. So I got my early birthday present. One of. Ahem. So nice to be loved. Thank u baby.

But you can expect lots of photos.  Finally!! I no longer have to depend on other people for nice photos. :)

2 years ago on my bday, he got me my iphone and so fast..bam! 2 years has gone by.

I has a new phone!! Ok bye!

Hunger pains

So it's 530 pm and we're (winnie and I) stuck in the jam on the way to my house.

Me: I'm hungryyyyy!

Looks at curry puff longingly and takes a bite out of it.

Winnie turnes around to glare at me: No eating in my car!

Me: (continues eating) you threw up in my car!

Winnie: oh yeah. Oh ok then.

Hahahah I finished my curry puff.

We are still in the jam. It's 533 pm now.

FYI: Curry puff was ok. Its from Tun Jugah. Better than Sarawak Plaza one, Nanci. :) 3 for RM 1.
