Hmm,let's back track a bit to about 1 week ago, that will b TGIF too...The shopping bug is the official mascot for moi workplace last week and of coz how can I the (erm hmm) undisputed SQ (shopping queen!) missed out on the grand event of the year!!! Well, it should be considered the most important event, other than for the upcoming D&D (omg, still dunno wat to wear *roll eyes*).
Anyway, moi and hubby decided to go on the 2nd nite of the sales instead of the 1st day as moi had been warned that the Q of the 1st nite is ridiculously insane (imagine Q-ing up at 7pm when the sales start at 11pm!). Furthermore, my belief is that if moi is fated to buy the stuff, I will still get hold of the stuff irregardless of wat happens. Well, I m glad that I din bug hubby to go up and Q on the 1st nite, he would haf probably suggested we go for movies instead of Q-ing up for 1-2 hours.
We made our way down to the store around 10.30pm after dinner at MOS (burger!). I had expected a crowd and true to it, a Q had formed. As compared to the prev nite (as illustrated by ppl who had turned up again), tis Q is much much shorter. Oh well, most of the good stuff should haf been grabbed on the 1st nite, so no surprises that the crowd was much smaller. We were like among the top 30 in the Q and as time approaches 11pm, everyone in the Q started to get excited (non stop chattering!!). At 11pm sharp, we were allowed into the store and boy, hubby finally had the chance to witness the incredible "Grab Anything U C But May Not Buy" spirit demostrated by fellow Q-ers.
We spent 2 hours in the store and as usual moi had a great haul (see pic pic!) Heeheehee, moi din expect to get so much stuff but the discounts were really hard to resist. I even got something which I had not (note: in years) had thought of buying. Had shown the "something" to my ex manager and she commented it was a good buy!!!! Oh well, I might haf to eat grass for the next 2 months but then again, it's not everyday that a good buy like such will come along...kekeke :P
P/S: dun envy me unless u wanna eat grass too!

8th, 1111 and 80%
After 4 days lapse, finally collected Jay's 8th album - Niu Zai Heng Man (Cowboy is busy). I am listening to the album as I blogged and I must say that some of the songs are really quite different from his usual style. And here are the awards (based on personal opinion!) :
Instant KTV hit : Wo Bu Pei
The one that got me grooving: Che
Remind me of Little Tigers: Tian Tian De
Before anyone gets the wrong idea about me dishing out 4D numbers, 1111 stands for 11th Nov and its the wedding day of Benny & Monica!! *Congratzz* The wedding dinner was held at Grand Mecure Roxy Hotel and the vb gang acty occupied 3 full tables!! As usual, we were seated with Wei2 and Uncle. As dinner got served, things got rowdy at our end. Everyone went around taking candid pics with lotsa hilarious poses. We were all self entertaining and I bet the rest of the guests must be thinking that either we were super high on red wine and beer, if not we were simply siao. Btw, my deardear let me had some red wine,heehee *muacks*
The yam seng part was the highlight of the whole dinner and the vb guys really got all of us laughing real hard till some of us had stitches. To round up the evening, we surprised bdae boy D with a cake, a bot of vodka and some unique concotions supposedly reserved for the groom. But alas, no one had the "good fortune" to drink any of the unique concotions,hahaha...
I guessed this had to be most fun wedding I had been so far and I hope it won't be the last :P
Went to the dentist for my half yearly check up on Mon and my pocket got burnt!!! 180 bucks for cleaning, X ray and filling!!! The good news is that I can claim up to 80%, the bad news is I never though it will be tat EX!!!!
Last piece of news --> I finally got my professional membership!!!! Yipee! Hee Haa! Although the cert will only be issued after 24th Nov but I am celebrating already...muahahaha

DuN mOvE tHe HanD!!!
I can't believe it...In another 1hr, it will be yet another working week *URGH*
When ppl say tat good things dun last, they really dun! Let me see, well we caught 2 movies back to back yesterday -> The Game Plan and Stardust and our dinner were 9" jumbo hotdogs. And before that we actually met a group of ppl battling out in the Subaru Impreza Challenge.
For those who are not aware of wats the Subaru Impreza Challenge, its a group of ppl putting 1 hand on a part of the Subaru Impreza for as long as they can and the last one standing (I mean whose hand is still on the car) will be crown the winner and of coz walk away with the car. Sounds simple? Well, not quite especially when there is about more than 10 ppl who are sticking their hands to the same car and each rest/break is oni 5 minutes and participants gotta plan if they wanna eat or use the toilet during the 5 minutes. There are definitely no strategies, juz pure endurance.
Yest when we walked passed Ngee Ann City, it's been like 6.5hrs since the start of the challenge and I can swear that its not an easy task trying to battle both physical and mental exhaustion. The place was stuffy, hot, no music (mental torture) and that was in the late evening. Can't imagine when its mid noon that's when the car gets heated up under the sun. *Smoking!*

HaPpY AnNiVerSaRy! LUb LuB U!!
Attack of the pinkie!!!! Well, I am definitely in a pinkish mood,kekeke...First of all, 1st Nov marks the 4th month since Dear hubby and moi exchanged our rings and read aloud our home made vows to each other. Happy Anniversary!!!
Today is another exciting day for me coz its the sales launch of tickets to Jay Chou's 2008 concert in S'pore. Let me trace the history to 23/10/07 when I read from a mag that Jay will be having concert on 19/1/08 and priority sales will be from 22/10-4/11. By the time I read the news, a day had passed and of coz I wasted no time in alerting fellow enthu SH. To my horror, SH told me that she had already gotten her ticket!!!! *Darn* Felt like asking WTF isit wrong with her!!!
We had attended the previous concert together and I could still rem how excited we were abt booking the tickets that we actually used 4 PCs to access the website. And now, SH had gone ahead to get her ticket and she still had the cheek to tell me that her fren had gotten the ticket on her behalf without giving her time to ask around. Anywaes, even if tat fren of hers was going to get the ticket for her, she still could have informed me instead of waiting for me to inform her rite. Tsk tsk tsk *roll eyes*
Anywaes, lucky I still had Leng (hugz hugz hugz). Tis gal replied my sms even though she's having a good time in USA. But by the time I wanna do my booking, almost all the tickets were sold out. I prayed hard that there will be additional show juz like the previous round and my prayers did came true! There will b another show on the 18/1/08 which means that ppl who had bought tickets earlier will be attending a later show instead...muahahaha...look at who's having the last laugh...muahahahaha
And like any true blue local, I logged into the website at 12am of 1st Nov but was unable to do anything. I got up before 7am tis morning and tried again, but still can't do much. Finally a kind soul in the office told me that online booking starts from 9am. So at exactly 9am, I started numerous attempts to log into the website. And that was the start of a frustration process that lasted till past 2pm. Despite numerous attempts, I was either kicked out at the last stage of payment or unable to proceed to the next stage of purchase. It was super super super frustrating. Best part, today is the 1st day of closing!!! *roll eyes*
I got so frustrated with the website that I actually "harassed" my dear hubby numerous times. Poor man, must be thinking that the wife got nothing better to do than to keep on lamenting on the possibilities of missing out on the concert. And finally, the poor man decided to make his wife super duper happy, went to TM to get the tickets OTC instead. And its a good thing that he did coz the tickets that I originally wanted were sold out and gotta settle for 2nd best instead. Nonetheless, I am going to see Jay Chou on 18/1/08!!! Hooray!!! Thanx so much dear dear ah boo for making me so happy on our 4th anniversary!!! I Love UUUUU!!!!
