tidy up that closet..

bye bye to kev, he drove off to work.. and i went for a quick jog..
my usual route..
my head felt so light..
it must be the hair!!

thought of going to safra for swim.. and relax at their jacuzz pool..
but the weather's turning dark..

taking a break from doing housework...
wah.. kev really got a lot of t-shirt.. but all worn out, the collar are out of shape and
they are all discoloured..
some still can be worn but they are not the in-thing right now.. so gonna give-away..
gonna dump into the salvation army container.. think they know what to do with it..

as for me.. i realised that i don't really have many to give away..
they all have to be thrown!!

a ReVamp is what i want now!!!
new sets of everything!!
REVaMP the whole of me!!!

search and shop... what a good timing...
GREAT SINGAPORE Sale!!!
hmmm.. GSS or not..
i see myself buying things..all the time..
sale or no sale..
cheap.. but how cheap is cheap?
so no diff.
got $$$, sure shop shop shop.. from nothing in mind to something..
btw, next on my list..
guitar,
clothes?
girls always seeing clothes..
so clothes are nothing special,
see nice , new stuff... buy..
but i want guitar..
for what?
learn for fun..
everything for fun
fun is getting expensive already..

cycling is serious hor.. not for fun
must cycle.. die die must

hand itch..
wants vs needs = > WAnts as always.. may need it next time,
buy first incase , next time cannot find..
then never use..
always the case.

back to basix

don't know yet whether i like it or not..
but i am comfortable with this short-not too short hair style..
had all the extensions cut off instead of opening the clips one by one..
so this is the result...



but i think it's gonna look nice with my new polo t's.
and..
no worries about hair being entangled..
so back to my basic stuff..
to sentosa
to the pool
running again ...

no need for hair clips and bands..
girlly stuff really not for me, i think.
but i tried ...

gonna listen to kev..






vain.. but too bad..it got to go

currently, i am on leave.. usually i will go for runs and swim.. but
this time, becos of the extensions.. i didn't do any of that.
this friday, going out with colleagues to Jurong Swimming pool to play..
i think about my extensions..
next 2 weeks, passion run.. i worry for the extensions again.

like kevin said.. why worry..? solve the problem!

i like the "now" me look!
but if i continue to have this..
i won't be able to enjoy what i have been doing..
then i have to spend time and $$ to deal with the confuse mess after each activity..

after so much thots and consultations with bestfriends..
i have decided...

will remove my "au-ta" hair right after i log out from here.. :(

confused mess

cycled from home to paya lebar airbase about 19km, took about 1.5hrs,
then did about 1 and quarter round at the runway , then cycled to marine parade hawker center, then home..

that how i spent my day on the 25th, my birthday :)

no leg pain.. no body aches..

interestingly .. only my left wrist in pain. felt lethargic, power 0-3.
my left thumb got no strength to press on that whatever u call it, to change gear from 2 to 3 .. or vice versa.. so i maintained at 2.


then my hair so messy..like in a a confused mess..
really had a hard time to single out the strands..

reached home, immediately wash up and straight to pamper our body..
kev went for body massage, while i went to deal with my hair-extensions.

spend 40bucks for scalp treatment.. sheishedo.. good stuff yet cheap, best!

"macam magic"

driving under this hot weather.. and after MacDonald's breakfast settling in..making me sleepy too, but i don't have the heart to drop her off at kranji station when she was already in LaLa land..
she did wake up briefly to tell me that she was feeling dizzy.. must the way i drove on that winding road along old woodlands road. At this point, think she had no idea that i have drove past kranji station.. and heading to teck whye....
the drive was a little bit stressful with big lorries and trucks driving along side with me.. ahh.. thinking of driving back home to yishun added more stress... i hate the road.. and i hate the weather! but thank god i got kev's shades on..

she finally opened her eyes.. as i was about to turn into her car park. and she said
"eh.. Macam magic..?"

the piriton and cough mixture must have really knocked her out!

she had a tough night last night. with that irritating runny nose of hers, and even though she had the mask on, she was tortured by the stench of strong smell coming from one of the cubicles. Besides having to deal with that unpleasant smell, she had to deal with the ugly sight of someone's etiquette which she finds it undesirable. And last but not least, i can't help but to eavesdrop... she had to deal with her unreasonable bf. poor girl.

back home. kev awaits for his breakfast. Mac Donald's breakfast not as nice as before. the muffin so hard to bite, dry and tasteless.
Tomorrow, will get burger king's egg croissant instead. Soft, buttery and tasty.

he'll be sitting for his exam tonight. all the best to you, babe.

the weather at home is just a hot.

nice :)

What more do i want?

before i wanted for a bicycle, i wished for a guitar!
i already bought my "pick of destiny" long time ago but i have not gotten a proper guitar yet.
been eye-ing on it though.. but hmmm.. somehow.. i ended up getting a bicycle.. and way before that.. hair extension

What actually i want which i don't really need them? hmmm...

the bicycle...
i want to start cycling but first of all, i have to be brave.. brave enough to go on the road,
which i have done so.. but still afraid of the traffic,the vehicles coming from behind.. especially big vehicles .. buses and lorries.. and also, not forgetting.. some idiotic drivers...

i want to cut down on running.. as it is going to hurt my back eventually..
luckily i got some kind of benefit from working in the hospital.. i am scheduled for the costly MRI scan for my lower back sometime next month, after Passion Run week..
The recent xray showed some kind of degenation, wear and tear of my lower back. Can't tell exactly what's causing the pain..or,it could be the fluid/ gels in between the lumbar .. that's degenerating or worn out..
each time i bend forward, getting up from sitting to standing position.. and when pulling patients up .. the pain was so unbearable.. but funny thing is, it only happens at work. stress, i think. So painful that it makes me wanna cry.. but crying won't help, MC does.

Took MC for my lower back pain last week. Before that, I got terrible URTI that caused me to have high fever of 38.6 deg for 2 days.. Never had such a fever before.. as far as i can remember, that is. And i never thought that fever can be so much painful! I rather have asthma attack, than fever!

Now that i am well.. i want to be healthy and strong! so that i can play!
This month.. my special month









Check out the cute guy behind me!


hehe.. that's kevin, of cos!

have u notice my new hair do?
oh yes, it's all fake..
been checking out forums, asking friends, and reading on hair extensions, and finally i did it on 1st May.
Went to the nearest hair saloon, Snip Avenue, recommended by my neighbour. Coincidentally, it was on promotion and is still is .. hair extension for 80cents per pc!


At first, it was so troublesome. i got to blow dry my hair each time i have it washed. So basically it was like everyday! Cos almost everyday work.. at dirty hospital. And almost every day run.. and NO matter how well i comb, the hair still gets entangled. So frustrating..
In the beginning, it hurts when i lay my head down to sleep. Had to lie on soft cushion. And with the clips attaching the extensions to my real hair, it's hard for me comb my hair, always got caught by the clips.. and, it is making it difficult for kev to sweep my hair off my shoulder or to the back with his fingers..
He has to carefully not to pull my hair. Almost wanting to take it all off. Taking it off, will cost me $20.

Then at work, i cannot let it down. Got to bun it up. I will definitely pull my hair extensions to some extent. Cannot tie too hard, too tight.. and must use the right type of hair bands ..preferably with no teeth. Simply too troublesome to maintain hair extensions.

Almost 20 days living with this 68pcs of hair extensions, i don't care much about it anymore. I stopped blow dry after washing. Let it dry naturally. Still it gets tangled though ..but i feel less frustrated, as i don't have to spend my time blow drying it and getting the same result. Tangled.
Somehow after a while.. i complained lesser of pain when sleeping.
Then after all these while.. i beginning to love this long hair.. not that long actually, i realized that long time ago, about 4 years back, i got quite very long hair.. but how come i never notice or even cherish it .. ? Now i itch to have long hair!
