Summer vacation.....

I told myself i am going to blog more often, and i thought i'll have so much time, somehow i didn't heh....so wat'sup for the past 2 months.....

the first 3 weeks was like lazing at home,reading books(cn't believe i've went to the library only ard twice in a yr),go for driving lessons,out shopping and so it sounds like nothing......

wait till i start venting all over again(u've prob. already heard from me)..... in 3 weeks how much damage it has done to my wallet.....

aside from the driving lesson fees (which is hella lots), going out means--> dining and shopping ...

and since you are in a relaxed vacation mood, it sorta triggers your appetite, especially for desserts.....so in abt a mth i ate 12 donuts,dined at Delifrance, Gelare, Bakerzin, Swensons(I absolutely hate their food, but it's the few halal restaurents ard for my friends), Bali Thai, KFC,Burger King,Sushi Tei,The Mussel Guys....and lots more small bites and desserts...I can Never shed all the calories and sugar level added (200 rounds at the track!?) I can't even rem. the last time i went jogging...

and then i found a vacation job at UOB tanjong pagar on a mth's contract.....after all that damage, I need to start saving up my salary for the next 6 mths of spending $ but a mth's salary is like peanuts in my bank a/c .... food and transport already drained 30% away....(I tell u, i think SMRT is cheating me my $..... how can u ever trust those machines, i top-up my fare-card almost every single week!....) and office work makes u very hungry for some reason, lunch is never enough, u need to get something for tea-time or starve till dinner....on a positive note, my office is near Amoy street, so you get the best and most affordable food in town, and i always buy back coffee, muffins or get chocos from watsons....i never stopped binging on all those food...
food aside, it's the Great Singapore Sale and it's time to stock up your closet, I bought 2 pull & bear tees (love their stuffs), a pair of pants frm Desigual (tis spanish clothing line have very interesting graphic designs, really dig'em, but it's premium pricing), pair of leggings from Mango(their sale is dissapointing, i've literally given up shopping there), belt and skirt from River Island....and that few pieces has drained my moolah for the next few mths....dang. Others are enjoying all their shopping sprees and i'm afraid to even step out of my house, all those sales, and now River Island is starting theirs...I'm missing out on alot of bargains(prob. not)....and every time u chill out with ur frds, means more dining bills and we have no resistence for desserts.....i ended up cutting down on my cinema trips (but i caught harry potter just yesterday.major dissapointment.so many characters were there no more than supporting roles, even ron and hermoine spoke merely a few lines.major boredom and it ended with a short climax. It has so much more to offer,it didn't.maybe i'm expecting to much frm a movie adaptation or i'm running out of patience to sit through another sequel) maybe i should start reading the books....

my job's ending next tues and there's still half a mth or so before sch starts (and that damn bidding system is already adding stress even before sch starts and i can't be sure i'll get my modules, i hope all the new media modules will turn out fine as i'm testing new waters...)

sweeping all the bad things aside, at least i have a ton of new mp3 downloads(to drown myself in) in my com ..... on a side note, Namie Amuro's new album--> Play is the perfect summer album...who says she's getting old and out? there's much more to offer...and i'm getting addicted to Shiina Ringo...she has very versatile vocals, rock to jazz...and it's not even the full picture...its topping my list......

well enjoy all ur spree peeps and the summer heat, and if u are juz plain lazing at home, pop on your headphones and enjoy the music....

have fun.....

lotsa warmth & sweetness,
