Im kind of sick and tired of getting a new phone. The whole story goes back to about 2 to 3 months when someone in the family informs me that its time for my turn to get a new phone. At that time, there was no phone that interest me and it was design show period so i didnt hate time to research on it. So it got dragged to may, my graduation day. Had dinner with the designers and dragged along with me to look at m1 phones. Spotted htc hero selling at $198 and gladly informed my dad that night that i want that phone. We went down to the shop the day after and was told by the salesgirl that it was out of stock. Same story at the m1 shop at tamp1. Disappointed but oh well, thats life. Attempt #2 was me checking on m1 web weekly (trying to see if htc legend's price will drop) a month later. PC show came and m1 had this 4days offer for htc desire (yes, that currently ranked first phone) selling at $398. Over my budget but it was a good price. Happily informed my dad that i want that phone and will pay 50% of it. So we planned to get it that weekend. 2days went past and i received comments able having to spend so much money on a phone. Guilt drowned me and i told dad that im not getting that phone anymore. So came attempt #3 last sunday. After cracking my brain for so long, and reading reviewsss. I decided to get SE xperia x10 mini ($188 at m1). Informed dad in the morning and then the horrible news came. Dad told me that he just remembered that im supposed to get my phone under mum's line, not mine so i should be checking on singtel prices and not m1. My weeks of stalking m1 have been for nothing. Fine. Looked through singtel prices. They were close to m1's. So we went down to the singtel shop at tamp1. Looked at the dummy ver of xperia mini and realised its actually VERY MINI. Great. Dad told be its better to buy a bigger screen phone so we didnt get it in the end. Went home, i researched further and listed down a number of potential phones. Thought over and consulted a few peoples for the whole week, i finally decided to buy samsung galaxy spica $88! Which leads us to attempt #4. Went down to bedok yesterday to get it. 2 shops said its out of stock. We went back to TM, century square and tamp1. All no more stock. FINE. Lets order online. When dad selected recontract on singtelshop, the price of the plan came up wrong. We didnt want to risk mum's cheap plan turning into ex plan, dad wrote an email to the consumer service asking how should we proceed buying it. So now, we are waiting for the reply. If we succeeded getting it, i will hate to wait 2weeks before getting it. Great. The wait. This cheap phones going oos thing reminds me of myself buying my current phone 22months ago. The cheap phone i was targeting was oos and so i ended up buying this almost $300 phone (not that one in the photo, its the one im typing on now. The one in the photo is my prev prev phone which i am still using now). So ex. D: anyway, shall slowly wait for the reply. Oh my life. And if there is any phrasing or typo error, dont mind me. They always appear when i blog with my phone.

Blogging on train again. This week can be considered as the busiest week since i started working. Its school holidays so schools want there campus to be dolled up during this period. Work have been piling up. 2 days left till end of week. I need a miracle will happen to assist me in finishing these works on time. Yesterday while i was riding on the train home with a colleague, we had a long talk and i was enlightened about the design industry and design trend in Singapore. Then today, the same colleague and another colleague came to me and asked why am i overtime-ing and what project i am working on. Each of them said something which made me stopped doing work, pack my bag and left for home. What they said made me realise how stupid and how much time have i wasted, struggling and dying. Sigh... I guess i will slowly learn more things as i proceed along.
I failed to alight at city hall to change train cos the train announcement was wrong. It was city hall, they said it was somerset. By the time i realised its city hall, the door was closing. Raffles place then.
I overslept today. The latest time to leave my house so that i wont be late is 8am. My alarm rang at 730am, i off it and went back to dreamland. When i wake up next, it was already 815am. Panicked. Haha... Rushed out of the house (mum and sis were still able to help me heat up my curry puff and pack my grapes), and stumbled through the horrible rain, to the train station. When i reached braddell, it was 915am. Officially reached office at 925am. So damn late and i could still grab a bottle of coffee from 7-11 on my way to the office. Haha... Was not the last to reach though.
Now on to world cup. Haha... If you know my sis and me well, you will know we will be watching world cup and supporting portugal. HAHA. Speaking of portugal, last night match of portugal vs ivory coast was damn disappointing. How could it end with a draw. Portugal is supposed to win. And the brazil vs nkorea match (the one that i force myself awake to watch), the first half was boring. However, nkorea was suprisingly strong. Though they lose, they were able to end the game with 2-1, when everyone was expecting brazil to win them by a 10-0 or something. Lol. Both skorea and nkorea are not bad this world cup. Found an eye candy in skorea team. Haha... Totally betraying christiano ronaldo. XD Japan not bad too but they need to play against a stronger team to see their abilities. The only good looking guy in japan team is honda. The rest are... just like that. Haha... There is spain tonight!
Happy Dumplings Day, everyone. =D

Its 9.16pm and im still at toa payoh, still walking to braddell station. Im missing my 9pm drama and have yet to eat dinner. No good. Im going to reach home at 10.15pm and will be damn damn tired.
The day had started badly for me with a SPLITTED headache. Ate 2 panadols before setting off to work but the pain continued all the way from tampines to braddell and even when i hav reached my office, it was still toturing me. Today was probably the first time i have travelled such long distance without wearing my specs. My specs make my head hurts more. Speaking of headache, my collegue, Jem was telling me to eat and drink more vit c before leaving the office just now. The both of us were sniffing and sneezing throughout the 8hours. Like me, she had a headache this morning too. Haha... Apparantly, the flu virus, originated from MJ, i think, have successfully travelled to our area.
Everyone take care too. The weather is very unpleasant recently. From a WTF-30°C to extreme-sudden-downpour-which-results-the-office-aircon-to-be-freezing-cold-below-20°C, anyone can get sick. The Toa Payoh North clinic near my office seems to be very prosperous last week and this week. I have never seen it once without patients sitting to the outside of the clinic. Chou dame～
A little recap of last weekend:
Celebrated sister's birthday at RC's house. Baked a cupcakes birthday cake. The photo posted earlier was the first batch of cupcakes that came out from the oven. We decorated them with choc and cream cheese frosting to completed the cake. The cupcakes ended up to be our supper, breakfast and lunch. Haha... Beered and wined this weekend too. Hoho... Awesome stuff k. Wiied too. Wiied a lot to be exact. But surprisingly, my arm was not that jialat today.
Back about work, finally went about informing my boss about applying for leave next fri. Looking forward to next week. My long weekend! Haha... This week is going to be bad i tink. LuC just passed 2 more stuff to do when i still have god knows how much posters to do. No end de. And these posters are due this week. Well, they are not hard to do, but just that im running out of ideas how to layout the images and text. The posters are all starting to look alike. Horror. And the font required changing today. Which was pretty much relayouting whatever i have done last week. I swear i almost died when i received that email. But well, this is the industry. 我忍! Was going crazy to the point that i was typing in chinese to my collegue on msn. Number of posters done so far: 18 and 3/4. Haha... Didnt manage to finish the 19th poster before leaving today. Anyway, Q will be back tml so we will have one more person to help out with the stuff. Yeah.
Blogging on phone seems to take really long. Its 9.51pm now and my train just left paya lebar. Shall stop blogging now so that i can start brainstorming for that project due on thurs. I sense a headache coming. OH NO(satoshiislove)! Rofl. Looking forward to my birthday present from alien sharon! Haha!
