Cannot go home ar....

I can't go home this weekend; so sad and I miss home (Mummy, Daddy and bro) soooooooooooooooooo much!!!~

I Must, I must, find a time frame when I can go back soon!!!!

Allergies

I am not sure what is wrong recently; I am getting red!!
And I don't mean it just literally; my face looks red and there's reddish spots....not really pimplish or portruding; but just, the surface of the face is uneven and not smooth and it's really bugging me !!!

Is it due to stress?
I don't know...
It could also be due to the weather?
My living environment?
Bedsheet? Pillow?
Food (assuming I eat lots of weird stuffs?)
I don't know, I don't know...I DON't KNOW!!!

Anyway, will change my bedsheet again (change it weekly) and see if it's okay.
Hope all is good soon after....

Write-up for event!

Yeay...I get to do the write-up on the charity carnival event organized by my department to be published in the company's website....
I am so happy to be given the opportunity....
However, I am a little worried that my writing skills may have gone rusty...and give me disappointing results......(am I being a worry wart again?)
Sighs....really confused being; don't know whether I should be happy or sad...haha :)

Whiff of travel

*Sniff sniff*
There is a sense of distance and jet plane I can see
Far away from your home you will be
Yet again another travel opportunity
For you my young lady
And it is a reality

My crystal ball can tell
All I can see very well
But you are definitely thinking
Whether this is indeed the right thing

Go, Think no more
Just spread your wings and soar
Chances come and go
Just take it and don't say no

May this be a timely break
To clear your mind
Whatever decisions you may make
Do not ever look behind.....

Thank you my crystal ball
For telling this all
A story of a pathetic girl
Who is about to face the big big world :)

Prep for Charity Carnival

Last Friday, after lunch with Nick, I went back to the office and got my hands down to work.....
Hehe... went down to the cafeteria and pushed and rearranged all those tables and chairs for the big event tomorrow.
**Funny thing, I was in skirt and also on heels....haha....worse than Maria who was actually pregnant!:p
Anyway, Maria was one of our committee member who was too helpful...she's only 1 month plus pregnant and she attempted to push all the tables and chairs until all of us yelled "No" and relocated her to help out with the decoration stuffs...phew....

We took some pics of the layout of the cafeteria before we moved them so that we can restore them back to their original location.



I went upstairs soon after to complete some of those design work....posters, flyers, etc for promotion during the event.
Then went home for a quick shower and drove back to the company grounds during dinner time.
Our dinner was provided; this was what I had.....
Fish & Chips...haha, special order for me (the others had Fish Gordon Bleu with cheese and ham......)

And a small carton of Peel Fresh Orange flavour...my favourite!

I left at 10.30p.m....too tired already....had to go home for my beauty sleep (way past my bedtime...)

Medical Check Up in GMC

After much persuasion from both Daddy and also him, I finally decided to go for a full general medical check up...just a health screening:)
Chose Gleneagles; the place where I was born and went there last Wednesday....applied leave for the day. (I originally chose Friday but since we were having this carnival on Saturday, we were required to be in the cafeteria on Friday afternoon to arrange the stuffs for the big event).
So I switched my appointment to Wed.....
I fasted from the night before for the blood test and also urine test (required).
Reached there at 8.30a.m.; and registered myself at the Health center....
So classy huh.....comfortable and conducive:)

I headed this way to the back; on the left far behind was the restroom...

Took less than an hour for the blood sample, urine sample and also the visual acuity and BMI test:)
Then went over to radiology for X-Ray, ECG....
Came back and I waited for the last test...they arranged for a doctor's appointment at 2.30p.m...
So, I waited for my final test (the EEG) and look at me....:p

Hmmm...what are you looking at?

I was served a complimentary snack...took water (they offered coffee, tea, milo...neither interests me:p)

The bun...smells nice and very fresh though...I saw the nurse bringing it in earlier....bought them from the bakery...
too bad I don't quite like breads:p (Mummy would help me to finish this if she was here...hehe:)

More of me....haha, cam-whoring:p

I went home for lunch and came back for my medical report in the afternoon and as scheduled, to meet my doctor:)
Waited until 3.30p.m.....one hour deviation from my original appointment!!! Arrrrgghhhh...coz Doctor was on his ward tours....(forgivable:)
One thing though, the air-cond is freaking cold.....yikes, i don't wanna mention or compare to morgues...(Rule #1: when you're in a hospital, don't talk or think about freaky stuffs:p)
Anyway, I waited here for a while for my doc to see me.

This dad had been waiting along with his daughter for some time too...poor them:P

My doctor was a gastroentologist; a highly impatient man...kind of pity his two clinical assistants who experienced his sharp side of the tongue everyday....
Anyway, he made me go do one more test; he resent my blood sample for one more test and I had to wait until 5.30p.m!!!
Aiks...then he prescribed some med for me and that costed me more money when the GHS procedure only incurs additional charge of RM20 for specialist consultation.
BUT...because of his additional prescription, he can charge extra at his dispense!!!
Outrageous....aiks!!
But anyway, not much complaints...you'd have to expect that when you opt for private medical care....and also, you get what you paid for...it was after all, a pleasant experience in a hospitable and friendly environment:)

My new haircut

Since I trimmed my hair like....a month plus ago, I haven't shown you how I looked like...hehe...
So here goes.....
How do I look?

This pic was taken immediately after the trim, wash and blow....fresh out of the salon:)

Also, and this is a comparison with my previous style...long hair..

So, what's the verdict, long hair or short hair for me? :D

A decision made...

Recently I made a decision...something that must be made...don't ask me what...
I have been swarmed by stuffs happening around me; not just work alone...in fact, everything revolving my life, etc has been bothering my mind.
I guess mummy's right; I am going through the burnout phase...I feel so tired and exhausted.
I practically go home so tired that I could barely stand and just want to flop myself onto the bed.
I was so drained out of energy these days...it's so sad.

And..the decision I have made; it's really not easy and I am doing all I can to keep that at bay.
It was a little wrenching to do something at that length but I do not want future problems; I have been through that and that's enough.
It's really devastating and it has not been a great year anyway for me as well...last year was a really depressing year.
This year; hopefully will be a better one.
I have my plans.... I have made up my mind on one (though still sad whenever I look back) and sometimes I feel like breaking down one day.
I have to go on, I have to be strong.
I am a big girl now; need to go through every up and down with courage and a bold heart....nothing is going to change that....
I will be missing those memories...but that's that.

As for the second decision, it was actually more major....it's about 80-90% firm as of now...and I will be making up and sealing the decision hopefully soon....
It is also another tough and major life decision which I do have to make at this age or foresake and regret in the future.
It hasn't been easy for me either...and I am really sorry how things turned out to be this way.
But life's just like that, there's no everlasting happiness (actually my optimism always thought me otherwise...happiness is in our hands). In this case, I am referring that life is never all beautiful, you need to prepare for the ugly side of the days as well.
And for me, I have reached the fork of the road which I need to pick the road to go on...tread on....I need to do something firm...
Okay...enough of my long-winded blabbering....let's just leave it at that

**It may be incomprehensible whatever that's in this post; ignore it, coz it's more of my inner voice**

Happy Mama Day!

This year I didn't go back to celebrate Mother's Day....I feel bad and I am not going to come up with anything...not going to be an excusaholic:p
Anyway, I really missed my mummy a lot; my friend who was there for me....I felt compelled with emotion to write her a poem

You were there when I was born

A whole nine months foregone
You could give up but you held on

For me your little one

It was a grey tomorrow

But you were filled with hope

To nurture and to mold your children

for the future generation

You were there when I was helpless

You were there when I was sad

You were there when I needed someone

in times so bad

You saw me through and through

through the good and bad

You never once gave up

You never once grumble

You never even cease your prayer

for the future of your heir

Sorry for the times I made you sad

Sorry when it hurt so much

Sorry I have been so bad

Sorry when I couldn't judge

Sorry for the times you worry

Sorry sorry sorry

All the words cannot describe

How much you mean to me

I will always love you mummy

forever and ever it shall be

You are the one that I really want

The one and only one

A precious gem only at my bay

And to end this I have to say

~Mummy, Happy Mother's Day! ~

Tummy Discomfort

There I go again...having major tummy discomfort and getting this annoying pain after each meal:(
I even felt nauseous...suspected case of food poisoning...yikes!
Went home on Monday in the morning and also took the day off yesterday; finally went to the clinic to check up on what's wrong.
Well, I went to Koe's clinic as usual...the conventional medical hall-like clinic which makes you feel giddy when you walk into those historic memorials:p (LOL!)
And the doctor gave me such a long lecture and a weird look; as if it's my fault for having this discomfort.
He even said I may be under stress; asked about my occupation, etc.
I asked for referral letter to go for a thorough check up with a gastroentrologist and he gave me insights (rather cynical admittedly) on putting myself through such check ups at such a young age.
Anyway, I guess I really need to chill out...stressed out:(

Beauty Spa

My first hand opportunity and big hole in bank account for a beauty spa treatment last weekend.
Had wanted to try it out for some time but was rather reluctant.
Last week, finally had the guts to try it out; risking some pocket money as well:p
Most of my girl friends in KL have already made their way to facials long long time ago...

So, I went to this Leonard Drake place in Gurney...which I have done some research on prior to the visit.

And really, I am impressed by their service....wow, really nice and luxurious treatment:p
However, the price was indeed expensive...I heard it is one of the most expensive ones!!
Anyway, they did a skin analysis before doing the treatment and they guaranteed that it will make a difference in the way I look after.
I met this lady whom I talked to the last time I was there; her name was Lily and she provided lots of information about facial treatment. Such a coincidence that she was assigned as my facial therapist for that day and we had a nice long chat.
It was such a soothing therapy/treatment session....with aromatherapy, facial cleansing, exfoliating, and hydrating with the moisturisers, and facial oil.
Then of course, there's that extraction process....eeeeehhhh....scared of the painful process, so they didn't force me to continue.
And..then, there's the masque for the face to maintain the hydration level.

And I was practically done :)
Then they even offered the quick touch up on the face; basically just some foundation on the face and then I made my way to pay.
Of course, before that, they tried to sell me their products.
I was impressed by their products because it has always been gentle for sensitive skin like mine and it felt good :D

However, it was too pricey....I may consider getting it the next time when I am richer...haha....
Conclusion, I really enjoyed and managed to relax during the therapy session....though it was pricey but I think it's worth it because these people are really professional and treated us real good.
Sometimes, it really feels good to pamper ourselves, huh?
**Dreams**
