Anything happy thing to share- I'm going on a short break again during Easter! We're heading to Margaret River (about 3hours drive from Perth)- Another B&B (Bed & Breakfast) at AUD90/day at Brilea cottage(family owned). Supposedly, the min stay of every hotel, resort,chalet is 3-days during peak holiday (Easter and Xmas) . Luckily, the owner allow us for just 2-days (as I told you-I'm a contract (no leave entitled). Even just 3-days, I have to apply for leave. Anyhow, that's not important at all as long as the journey benefited me! Hahaha....

Friday Morning

It's now 6.43am and I'm not working!

The weather is about 28-29 degree- Cool and nice outside!

Today, I'll spend my time....

- Continuing my TVB series of course (Anyway, I've finished 'The Little Nyonya')

- 煲凉茶! (WIP)

- Waiting for husband to finish work at 1pm

- Visiting the construction site

- Accompanying husband for a hair cut

- Grocery shopping

It's now 7.27am....and I'm knocking off now..

Before I left, something to share you after my working hour at 8.15pm. Guess what? A nut pee in front of me and others in the train some-more! I could describe in just a word- GROSS! GOD, what happen to the world? (Luckily, he didn't show his X)

Hi Hi

Just drop by to say Hi before going to work!

Ya, I'm starting at 4.45~9.45 (5 hours shift)

That's the reason I'm still here, blogging! :)

(FYI, I'm in the office, taking calls now)

Recently, I'm watching a Singapore drama- The Little Nyonya '小娘惹'. This drama reflected the life of  a nyonya with tears and laughter..I'm just half way through.. Still lots more to go. Perhaps, let me briefly introduce you the drama

Title:  The Little Nyonya '小娘惹'

Episode: 34

Staring: Jeanette Aw 欧萱, Pierre P'ng 方展发, Xiang Yun 向云, Felicia Chin 陈靓萱

Synopsis:  A life of a maid in Huang family, becoming a second mistress and 'torturing' life continued....

 

Anyone watching?

WIP- Part II

I have new neighbor!

FYI, my next-door neighbor started their construction a week earlier than us. Unfortunately, we still have no chance meeting the owner yet (my neighbor). We used to visit the site when we're free (is about 5 -8mins from our current location). We did notice that there are a few more construction to be going on, however, till now still they haven't start yet !(Awaiting building license,perhaps?) At this stage, only the two of us commencing the construction...

I received a letter from our builder that we need to attend 4 meetings during the construction:

- Brickwork Meeting

- Ceramic Tiler Meeting

- First Practical Completion Inspection

- Final Completion Inspection 
 

Hopefully, we could move in before summer. Normally, it took about 6-months to complete the construction! From the estimation time length, it should be in August 2011. We could take a month for preparation (e.g. painting, flower/ grass planting and etc) as August is "Ghost Festival" (July in Chinese calendar). Anyway, we will see how it goes. Perhaps, it might complete sooner. Who KNOWS?

In the meantime, of course, I will definitely calculating/budgeting for the new house (surveying for furniture and electrical appliance) I did show this to Angie. Maybe I should share it with you too!

Before that, I have been visiting shops (IKEA and other furniture shops) but can't really find the ONE. Therefore, I decided to check out from ebay website and finally I saw this! The problem is now I have no place to keep it (currently, I'm just renting a room!) I wish they could keep that in their depot until my house is ready. Unfortunately, they are only able to keep that for a month. I'm thinking of renting a small container- still awaiting their reply :)

What do you think of?

WIP-Part I

贱man!

近来从友人口中听说....

分了手,男方还向女友领回所有曾经买送的礼物.

过不过分?

一点GENTLEMAN都没有...

那还无所谓.

更过分的是...

更可悲的是...

半夜三更跟人要回!

如果没有的话,就要CASH...

真是OMG!

说老实话,还好发现得早... :) [GAL, You're so LUCKY]

P/S: 一句话,眼睛长亮点 (老人家说的 heheh)

CNY- Nothing to ME in PERTH

Almost end of day of CNY D2

I guess everyone is enjoying their holiday right now- gathering, steamboat-ing and ang pao ang ang..

I wish I could be one of YOU too

REALLY...(I'm always thinking of!)

Nowadays, as you could hear from the news, cyclone YASI was a mess to the resident in Queensland

Due to that, Perth call centre is busy,busy and busy

(Townsville call centre is temporary closed)

I had been working for 20 hours on CNY D1 & CNY D2

Taking all sort of calls (times flies...)

Ever since I'm back from Malaysia, I have been working for 12 days in 2 weeks...

Of course, GOOD MONEY but NOT ENJOYING at all..

 

Frankly speaking, what am I expecting? MONEY???

Kinda bored- still I need the MONEY wow..

I'm so CONFUSED! :(

Finally, I bought myself a 60mm MACRO lens and a tripod.

My loved one

I haven't been meeting my mum and sis since May 2009.

Of course, I would take this opportunity to reveal them to you guys...

Unfortunately, I can't show my sis (the one in S'pore) as I didn't take any photos of her! :(

Left to Right: 

younger sis-Qxing (pronouced as "Queen"), mum- Mrs. Lee and Hubby- Keng

Home Sweet Home

I'm finally back to my HSH...

Thank GOD for the safe journey

:)

Flying up in the sky

THE TIME HAS COME...

Tomorrow, I'm flying off to Singapore at 9.35pm!

Of course, I'm still working from 7.15am-1.45pm

Will do my last minutes shopping (including visiting bank and etc) after working hour...

:)

*~*~*~*

Yesterday, I bought a AUD16 credit so that I could make calls to landline/mobile using SKYPE

Had made a test call to mum- not breaking up at all

It was absolutely 'crystal clear' during transmission! :)

Guess how much does it cost for that?

Just AUD 0.03/min (much more cheaper than using my 3 cap-plan)

The other thing is, I might considering signing-up the "UNLIMITED Malaysia" (only applicable to landline in Malaysia) and I just need to pay for AUD7.99/month

What's benefit me?

- 10,000min call time (167hour/month)

- Could make calls up to max. 6 hour/day

- Limited to 50 no#/day

Note: If I signed up the yearly subscription, I just need to pay AUD81.48/year[15% discount] (as now I have to pay for AUD29/month for 2 years contracts)

Besides that, I found out where Vodafone is offering Prepaid 365 days recharge (*similar to Hotlink 365)- That's what I'm looking for as well (I might considering this as well when my mobile contract ended)

** I want to save more $$$....That's my main purpose >.<

Xmas is soon approaching, eventually there are SALES all over the mall.

Of course, I have to pamper myself too..

Guess what I get for myself this time? A new watch

 

 

That's the brand!  (I purposely did that)

At first, hubby and I thought of exchanging present during XMas

Unfortunately, we can't think of what to get for each other

Then, I told him I'm looking for a new watch

Luck in on my side, watch is on SALES(up to 50%)

Without much hestitation, I quickly grab one!

As for him, he is looking for a pair of shoe

Still searching for one.....
