Busy meaking

Most times, I was busy with work. As I usually write my blog in the office, hence when busy, I have no time to blog. Then was CNY, travelling here and there, blogging just take back seat as my priority.


Recently quarelled with M cos he never pick up my calls 95% of the time. Called him after dinner on Monday night. Was very frustrated cos there was a long taxi queue, I tried several times to dial a taxi, waited the longest time to get through, yet finally the operator cannot get a cab to pick me up. Was really going mad as it was late and I wanted to get home asap. So hoping if he is outside, he could send me back.

Not the first time this has happened to me. Somehow, I'm being discrimated by cab drivers cos of my address. Maybe too far they don't want to pick me up.


Anyway, was just too upset with M to answer his call-backs later. Warned him not to miss any calls from me so late at night. But he will never change lah and I just talk till my saliva dries. It's just like urging MT to quickly marry ST, whom we teased about at dinner. The guy just flipped away our questions and doesn't look like he wants to commit. Poor S, she's easy-going but she's has been going out with him for 8yrs! Even the mother worries and had to instruct VT to ask MT when.


As an aside, M has improved a lot, cos he now talks to me who will be his brothers and all. Something he would never talk of before. I'm happy that he has thought about this, though still wonder when. He said hopefully by 2005, I think hopefully, his job takes off, or he changes to a more stable-income job.

So I tied this together about him missing my calls. For every of my call he doesn't pick up, the forfeit is 0.05 carat of a diamond. I'm rubbing my hands in glee, cos I think there'll certainly be a spillover, and I can get 'extra' earrings, bracelet and necklace by the time he do the Deed.

The Shirt

Finally managed to find a nice shirt for my uncle at Fcuk. Hehe! Hope he likes it. Most importantly, he can wear cos they do not have L size anymore.

Found a couple of watches I like cos M still owes me the last of my birthday presents. Hee! He's trying to lai zang, but don't care. The design is quite similar to a branded one selling at Sincere Watches, but at a fraction of the prices. Well, there is quite a price differential between the 2 designs I see, but will have to try to know which one looks better on me.

Who knows, I may get both. Haven't seen a watch that sets my heart aflutter for some time now.

One Night in Mini Bangkok

Was shopping lookng for my uncle's shirt at Bugis. Chanced upon a mini Bangkok at the pasar malam. Wow wow! There were just rows and rows of little shops selling clothes and accessories. The quality is not too good and the prices are hard to beat. Bought 2 very nice tops in a space of 15mins. However, think I can't wear one of them, as I have a tendency to buy one size too small :P

This other top was the last piece and it has a hole. The shop offered to either patch for me, or give me a 20% discount. Now where can you find such service nowadays? One big plus for this place is they actually have fitting rooms. Unlike Bangkok where the shops will just provide a huge sarong for you to be Superman inside (or not to be gender bias, Superwoman).

Cool, must go back there soon. Didn't even explore the 2nd floor yet.

Can't get your love

Very funny today. Halfway at work, was thinking of this song, loosely translated into English as "I cannot get your love." Mandarin name is "Wo De Bu Dao Ni De Ai Qing." Anyway, just happened to break out into the first verse of this song, as I'm prone to when I'm stressed and/or bored. So I sang out "Wo De Bu Dao Ni De Ai Qing."

My neighbour actually jumped, cos she was humming the same song in her mind.
Hee, such psychic communication we have!

Where to Get a Nice Shirt for my Uncle?

Going to Malacca for CNY. Want to get a nice shirt for my youngest uncle who always dote on me most. Last time when I was very young, he always took me out for movies, and gave me angbaos when he struck lottery which is pretty often. He could dream about dung, and strike. If he dreamt about numbers, he would also usually strike if he bought the number. Anyway, he's my favourite uncle and I had a crush on him then.

The type of shirt that he likes is long sleeve, chinese collar and preferably with some embroidery, which is pretty unique and not easy to find.

Can anyone tell me where I can find it? Already tried Zara, Stussy and Taka.

Disheartening

Had a little tiff with M today. Wondering if it's partly because I'm too self-absorbed. He's been facing a few problems at work, a couple with legal complications. Anyway, whatever I say to console wass rebutted by him. Then I brought up the fact that if things happen to him at work, it could mean the thing I want most to happen will not happen. So he said if this is all I could think of.

How encouraging. He's never discussed about the future plans, albeit though the house deco is moving along. But where to get the chick without the egg?
Of course I'm always thinking about it cos there is not even a slightest hint. No planning at all. Hanging in the existence of bewilderment.
He doesn't seem interested when I gently bring up the topic. Or he will change topic.
Which girl can take this? Esp. if she wants to do her best by the partner.

Am I being selfish to think of our future with the mess at hand?
