|| Fun at Botanic Gardens ||

Last Sunday was the dogs' favourite day! Coz we brought them to the Botanic Gardens where all the dogs meet. I woke up early in the morning to prepare yummy yummy egg mayo sandwiches. I was suppose to meet the rest at 11.15am actually, but because there was too much to prepare, I reached there at 12pm. Fortunately, the rest were also late..haha!

-This is Thresa and Silky

-Ashley, Nikko and a Schnauzer

-Pretty Nikko

-Abacus

-Playtime!

-A tired Silky

If you were wondering whose dogs are those, Ashley the Cocker Spaniel and Silky the crossed Maltese and Shih Tzu are mine, Nikko the Golden Retriever is Terence's and Abacus the Jack Russell Terrier is Celestine's. I jus love dogs! They are simply the best. Truly a good companion.

|| My new job! ||

Everything happened so fast. It was only on monday (15th May) that i decided to get my lazy bum off the couch to go find a job. And so fortunately for me, I've got the ideal job on the day itself! On 16th May, I was ready for work. I was quite skeptical about this place before I came here because the office was at China Court. Its so ulu that nobody had heard of it. However, I was pleasantly surprised. This place is so accessible that even if I reached the trained station by 8.15am, I can still take my own sweet time to waddle to the office and can still be 15 minutes early! Oh ya, btw, China Court is about 10 minutes walk from Raffles Place. My company designs office furnitures. Quite cool. Even the office itself looks very new and modern. What's most important is that I have learnt and is going to learn a lot of new stuff which is applicable to the knowledge that I have gained in school.

I must say that working and studying are really two different things. The knowledge gained in school did not allow me to know how to carry out the various complicated responsibilities of an accountant but the basic knowledge of accounting is still a must to understand how things work. In actual fact, the job of an accountant is much more complicated than studying accounting. Since I am new here, I have to try to learn the ropes fast. But of course, things arent just as simple as that. In my previous jobs, I was only an assistant to the senior accountants but now, I standing in for an accountant that has gone on maternity leave, so guess how much more things do I have to know!

Lucky for me, I have a good boss. She is willing to teach me and guide me along. Sometimes I have too many things to do till I forgot what she has told me, so I gotta go back and ask her. Its so paisey to do that coz she will sure think that I'm some hopeless worker. However, things are so far so good. I hope to do a good job out of it.

Now, everybody's out to meeting, and I have finished all my work on hand. Time to slack! Haha~

In Love @10:50 AM

|| Time to relax! ||

Finally the exams are over! I've been waiting for this day for a long long time. This sem has really been a torture, from projects to assignments to tests and exams! Finally I feel that I can breathe again. But, the worst is not over yet..because I dont think I will do well in my exams. ArGh. This totally sucks. Well, anyway, I wouldnt want to worry myself with unnecessary stuff yet. Just enjoy myself while awaiting judgement day~ Hope that Amanda's prayers for me will work..haha~

Meanwhile waiting for next sem to start, I wana find temp job to earn some cash. Does anyone have a deal? Being an accounts assistant at this point would be perfect!

I kind of enjoyed my shopping trip cum end-of-exams celebration with my friends on monday. After having some delicious pasta at Pasta Cafe, we went to Orchard for some window shopping. It has been weeks since I left my footprints in Orchard. Yes, I was that busy preparing for the exams!! But that doesnt mean that hardwork=good results. I'm just the kind that never ever get the results I want. Sigh. Somebody help me??

Since I the exams are finally over and I am not working, that means I have plenty of time catching up with my friends. Was happy that Tiffane and Teresa dropped by HV that day. Though it was a short meeting, but a little catching up was better than none. *PS: what happened to the 400 bucks?* Probably also gona call on my bestest best friend to meet up next week. But she's working now, dont know if she can make it..lets hope ya.

To some people life is quite boring without any work to do, but since I'm the princessy kinda girl, of course I'm enjoying this to the fullest!! Who doesnt wish to stay at home and slack?! My everyday routine: wake up, walk the dog, eat, game, watch tv, on the phone...guess thats about it. Nothing interesting but very fun! Its been a long time since I've done that. Tomorrow would be more fun with shopping for me!! =) Btw, its me and Terence's 2 years 11 months anniversary tomorrow!! Happy anniversary dear!
