only know you love her when you let her go

last week to go in housekeeping, i really have mixed emotions about this, but more towards a mixture of sadness and regret.
Tbh I have always hated going to front office and I've been so used to housekeeping and the people are so nice they're like real good friends to me.
I just hte that feeling of having to start all over again, plus I know my new colleagues are not nice AT ALL. the impressions they give me are horrible.
oh man. But I will still stay positive and cherish my last week at hkp.
ps: there's this new girl in the office and she's absolutely annoying, fake and I really dislike her.
She's like trying really hard to take over my place, commented about how she needs someone else other than me to coach her (-_- I know im lousy but still......) and she even said ytd that since everyone keeps on looking for me on the phone, she shall tell everyone that I'm not in office so that they will speak to her.
WTS she is damn obsessive lor trying so hard to take over alr. Even anati doesn't do this pls.
damn pissed but I will ignore her anyway I'm leaving the office (damn angry to see someone like her taking over me cause shes so un-nice to me but all sweet and kind to the others.)

OKAY enough of ranting.
bye.

love runs out

so I suddenly realize that I only have 2 weeks left at housekeeping and omg Imma seriously miss that place and everyone there. It's like I'm so used to the people and place as well as my everyday work. Now to imagine that I have to start over again makes me a little apprehensive and weird.

Actually considered staying but nah, I guess it's time for me to move on to another phase of working life! Since I've almost learnt everything at hkp, might as well spend my last 3 months at somewhere else where I can learn much more! :-)

Anyway, today is my second off day and I went out with my stupid giraffe who was late ytd and I was kinda upset.......


so he bought me a rose to appease me, that pig heh <3
we slacked at home, ate loads and waited for the rain to stop before heading out!
I didn't tell him where we were heading and he was so damn frustrated throughout the ride there LOL poor thing.
but we finally arrived and we visited the 2Degree Ice Art Exhibition!


tbh its damn lame if my mom didnt get us extra tickets i wouldnt have gone but thanks mummy!
it was damn small but CRAZY COLD. even with coats and gloves we were freezing HAHAHA.


got on the slides a few times and got bored alr. and the electricity actually got cut off for like half a minute lol damn lousy!

DERP FACE

I THINK I AM A DUMPLING OMG I SHOULD HAVE TIED THE SASH MYSELF.

left with a super condensed bag and a freezing everywhere HAHAHAHA.
then we headed to town for CHURROS!

Spanish Doughnuts
Orchard Central #05-51/52


Chocolate Churros ($9.90)

the wait was kinda slow but mmmmmmmmm it's all worth it! 
ps: if you wanna get the cone, don't suggest takeaway cause theyre crudely packed in a box and we had to request for the cone LOL.

ANDDDDD we took a bus to Bukit Merah for dinner at this new cafe that I've just read about!

Pan Delights Cafe
161 Bukit Merah Central #01-3725, Bukit Merah Estate
Singapore 150161

The cafe was kinda small and unassuming but so comfy and sweet.
I would love to have such a cafe near my place someday. Plus this cafe focuses on mains and savoury dishes so its a nice change from cakes and stuff.

prawns in garlic cream ($8.90) 
SO DAMN GOOD THE CREAM WAS AMAZING (but beware of bad breath after this dish)

Seafood Marinara ($14.50 or something)
the sauce tasted canned so....... meh. the pasta was cooked well tho!

Pan's Salmon ($15.90) 
The salmon skin was crispy and so good! But im not a mash person (hate potatoes) and the berry sauce may be a tad too sweet.
dinner was good though, our plates were clean and our tummies were crazy full.
Ps: this cafe does not charge GST or service charge, another plus point!

after this we just wandered around bukit merah till we were bored and headed back home. I wonder why we're always so boring yet it never feels boring.
heh.

okay im crazy lazy to blog ciao.
 ps: 3 days of OT next. S I A N

Wonderland

So I'm on the MRT right now after a day of work (back to pm shifts!) and one thing that i really enjoy about pm shifts would be getting the chance to talk to the people there! Mornings are always a mad rush so nights are usually chill to chat and work at the same time :-) 

So ytd one of my runners came back after a month of being in china and when he entered the office I was so happy cause he looked so radiant HAHAHA and he said he missed me so much DAMN CUTE PLS. (Tho I bet he said that to everyone) he even gave me a jelly and kinda peerpressured me to eat this beef jerky candy that I really didn't wanna try HAHAHA but still sweet of him! 

And today I spent some time talking to my shifu who taught me how to make rooms. i was considering something and i have no idea why but i just randomly turned to him for opinions, and it turned out to be real good. he's kinda like my first friend in housekeeping, at first we were damn awkward cause he's damn quiet but now it's perfectly fine heh! 
He's the sweetest guy ever and his little girl is damn lucky to have such a wonderful dad! 

It's like I can always talk about anything and everything with the room attendants there and it makes me love these people more! Who said foreign talents are horrible? They're amazing people and singapore is nothing but lucky to have them. I would never be able to sacrifice my family and everything to earn my living in a country that doesn't exactly accept me. 
So, always remember that foreign talents don't always snatch opportunities of Singaporeans, sometimes they are our unsung heroes, doing jobs that no one would want to "soil their hands with". 

Anyway, can't wait for Friday cause its my off day AND I have no idea why but recently my sides have been hurting like mad :-( oh well. 

Xoxo

Ps: may be heading to bkk in oct, keeping my fingers crossed that we do fly there <3

we need a wild heart

hey guys, I realized that it has been AGES since I last blogged (tbh I havent even touched my laptop for a long while lol!)
So I wanted to order these gorgeous floral cupcakes for my mom on mothers' day but I'm way too last cuz they're all booked. oh man...... but nvm i SHALL FIND SOMEWHERE ELSE.
plus my mom doesnt like cake heh.
recently I've discovered this super new black spot on my toe and i freaked out after reading online that it may be skin cancer or diabetes. tho it's starting to look like a mole -_- I will still try and remain as healthy as possible. Gonna eliminate unhealthy sugar from my diet! (TRY)
anyway, work has been freaking crazy. Anati and I have been alternating, with her working OTs on my off days and vice versa. tbh I think the both of us are too stressed out and we don't know what to do cause we really wanna do everything to help but it's kinda taking a toll on us, mentally and physically.
I mean, I haven't gotten gastric pains till this one day of OT at work that I really couldn't deal with the stress :-(
okay anyway, moving on to happier things!

so I spent my off day at my uncle's house to pray for my grandma's death anniversary. It's kinda ironic but I actually dreamt of her just the night before :-) a nonsensical dream of me borrowing her clothes with her all-too-familiar smell but still.
anyway, the family cooked while I lingered in the kitchen cuz there was nth much to do!

the cousins (excluding feli) came for lunch and they 2 kids were freaking noisy HAHAHA.
bought some ice cream for the kids and michelle while I could only afford cartoned juice.


but anyway, kids and ice cream = A HUGE MESS. (missing the old sister cuz she was too lazy to come downstairs for a walk HAHAHA)


made a yummy banana strawberry smoothie one day before work and it was major love.

with my ham wrap from subway btw did you know that tuna sandwiches arent $5 anymore?

one afternoon while I was bored = pschool uniform! look at ma prefect tie

momma cooked meesua for sister and I so yummy!

okay next: Gardens by the bay with my boy!

last year we were actually going to GBTB for the tulips exhibition but it wasn't in season so we missed it (BUT THE UP EXHIBITION WAS AWESOME AND ITS WAY BETTER)

we reached gbtb under a scorching sun and it was full of people meh. I wanted it to be rather chill with a scattering of people so that we could make the gardens ours but oh well, apparently not.

BUT THE TULIPS WERE BREATHTAKING I WENT INTO THAT HALL AND I LITERALLY GASPED. it was amazing I love flowers and I think I died and went to heaven.

and then we reached the tulips field.

love the 2 photos above heh. but seriously the place was gorgeous I would have stayed for ages if not for the huge crowd standing in front/behind/next to us and all squeezing to take a photo zzz.

MY ABSOLUTE FAV TULIPS I AM IN LOVE

and you can see that Im always standing in front of that patch after discovering my love HAHAHA.

this would look amazing in a bouquet

  LOOK AT THE CROWD YAW

 

the boy likes to take candid shots of me. the unglams are like 20 and these are the only nice ones LOL.
but...

it was a wonderful day ❤


49 seats for dinner and we were underwhelmed it was just..... meh.

fav polaroid of the day :-)

kay long day ahead xoxo.
