Two days after exam It's two days after exam and three weeks before the final exam...whew....but I did enjoyed my weekend. Had tickets to Terminal 3 ... but I am just too tired to blog now...will do it tomorrow. Friday, 26 October 2007 @ 02:51
Late Night with QB - The Final Countdown Hmm, it's 2.52am in the morning. I guess I can really be an owl if I want to...Realise that to achieve optimum results of input knowledge into my brain,it has to be after 11pm. Just don't feel right studying in the morning or afternoons, get restless easily and nothing much can be done...except to tune in to YouTube to watch jap cartoons...check facebook or read emails/blogs... heng tomorrow is the test...Not sure if I have comfortably managed to squeeze all info in...Usually, I should be able to memorise all I need by 1am, sleep and wake up for final revision tomorrow morning...hmm, but not for this time...why har? Probably kept telling myself that this is only an 1-hour essay test...the real freaking exam is next month.. Back to my latest "lover"...John Sloman...chap 13... Thursday, 25 October 2007 @ 00:06

Late Nights with QueenBee again! Some lucky ones had spare leaves to clear, some just don't..Here am I, having to save my precious leaves for studies & exams..., knowing that I can't study in the day, brains can only function well at night...(er-hem, what I meant was the storage side of my brain, where knowledge is being input...dear boss, if you happen to chance upon my blog, my brain is still working under perfect condition in the mornings, afternoons & during meetings..!) whew...explaining is damn tough...so...what is the moral of the story? Don't make mistakes...its harder to un-do, re-trace the steps and do it again... So much time wasted - Let's hit back to my econs chaps...John Sloman... Hmmm.... Sunday, 14 October 2007 @ 14:07

Last slice belongs to Grandma..grabbed this plate for final photo taking before she eats it! @ 00:10
Paul and Jessica's wedding  Wedding Ceremony of Paul and Jessica - St Andrew's Cathedral Although it's raining heavily in the morning before we step out of our house, it did not dampen the atmosphere, the sprit of a happy union. Today is my cousin's wedding, the one I grew up with...cousin Jessica with her one in the world, Paul.  Cheers to Paul and Jessica - May you have a blissful marriage! :)  The 2 Joannes. Bestest Aunt forever The joy in my world
Obviously..this is another joy in my life, isn't it...My dearie..

Happy Holidays everyone....this esp goes to my dear colleague, Andriana Saman...Love her to bits. :) Saturday, 13 October 2007 @ 23:58
Aunt Joanne's Birthday Here's 3rd VIP's birthday, my Aunt Joanne. Though her actual day is not here yet...hmm, I did hear her mumbling...18 Oct...I just wanna say... " Hi Aunt Joanne, hope you are reading this post before your birthday. This post is dedicated to you especially. Thank you for being there for me always. To my best aunt in the world. Have a blessed birthday!"  Though it is not something fantabulous, but here's my way of saying how much you mean to me... :) @ 08:36
Momsy's Birthday The best things that I love to see are the smiles on my love ones. This month, I celebrate lots of VIPs' bday, like my Varien boy, momsy's, Aunt Joanne & grandads! It so happened that I wanted to take a break off work, and plus Lawrence is having his off day for Hari Raya, we planned to have little nice shopping trip in the afternoon... "Hp starts ringing at 7.30am while I was at Toa Payoh MRT platform" "Hey, are you working, half day rite? Want to meet for lunch" - My Momsy... I was like " Ok, fine, since I am meeting Lawrence for lunch too, we'll have it at Tanjong Pagar". Brought them to Blue Mist at Amara..it was super packed, but we still managed to get seats after 15 mins of waiting. Their set lunch is fantabulous!  Smiley faces tells all! Momsy with fish N Chips He he...forgot to take my fav clam chowder down...so it's already half a bowl gone..

Varien Boy's birthday As usual, when it's time for anyone's birthday in the family, its always a steamboat...hmm, I like it...as it means i can have all the veges I want. It's kinda happy sight when you see 5 kiddes running around, calling you aunt Joanne, instead of "Che Che"..and seeing Varien growing up so fast makes me feel that time runs by so fast. He's already 7! Awee...
Not very clear though as my cuties requested all lights to be off.  Isn't this cute? I made them hug each other & pose for the camera after a little girly "fight" Sunday, 7 October 2007 @ 17:14
Headless Chicken Hmm, I have been sitting myself down, in front of the PC for the entire weekend, but guess what..I don't even know what I am studying...not very effective...its just like one headless chicken surfing the net, drowning herself in her notes. Luckily, I managed to get out yesterday to shop for my fav nephew's birthday pressie. Varien boy is already hmmm....primary 1 ! Went for a last min shopping trip to Taka at around 7pm, not too bad, got a pair of FILA sandals for him (my favourite orange colour). Also managed to bag myself a pair of birkenstock on 20% sale! October is a VIP month, with lots of happenning birthdays. Like my momsy, Lawrence's Momsy, Varien boy.... Can't write much, I have to prepare myself for tonight's dinner. Being a technology idiot, I just realise how easily I can load my mobile's pic to PC, and how I can load PC's to mobile...I'm sure to take loads of pics tonight! Yeah.. Labels: Studies |
