Busy these days.... With what? Alot of stuff.....

I'm an auntie!!!!! Hahahah.....

Sister's little prince.....



Just sms-ed Sis to say that I want to go find her to see little boy...... think i'm addicted liao..... :P

I'm a "no-skill" auntie. My aunties were commenting that my carrying technique is incorrect.... hehehe.... practice makes perfect la.....



My mama, and her lovely grandson.......



Guess I'll be busy for the weekends.... Either par-tohing aka dating, or finding my little nephew.....

cheers....

Just wondering....

If i were to try selling some of my stuff online, do you think people will buy?

i got loads of stuff that i have not used, rarely used and i'm dying to sell them off. it's taking up too much space.

let me know if you will buy can???? i try to sell cheaply la.... :P

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

tired these days....

i even dozed off in the train on the way back home. if i'm sitting, it's no big deal. but, i'm standing!!! Gosh... can't happen that i actually was that tired. plus a headache actually. luckily, i didn't fall on the floor, else, can't imagine the looks on those commuters faces. and can't imagine where i am going to find a place to hide.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Took the feeder bus from the mrt station home just now.

Saw a familiar face - the bus driver. or do we call them the bus captain now?

I do not know him. I only know that he has been driving since i was primary 4. That was like 15 years ago.

It makes me wonder. Can people stay in a job for so long? 15 years... wow!!!! I do know of people who can stay for such long periods in a job.... but can i? maybe... maybe not.

Weekends always pass by so fast....

If only we work Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Then we'll be off on Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday. Why not off on Friday or Monday you will ask.... Well, a mid-week break is good, doesn't it? Whatever the case, it will not be happening.... Not now, not the near future.

I went Singapore Science Centre yesterday... Been a decade since I went? Can't remember... only remember that I used to go there for school excursions. Can't even really remember how it looks like then....

But now! It has changed so much, kind of like a maze now. Divided into various categories and all linked up....

Anyway, it's FOC, that's why I'm there. Hahaha... I'm a typical 'cheapo' human.



That's Brian at one of the interesting exhibits. Head on a platter.... wahahah..... why huh?? do you know how this is possible????

Now, it's me at one of the exhibit at the "aviation" corner... but it's a run-down helicopter. Think Science Centre should 'update' some of it's exhibits...



There was a demo on "Tesla Coil" and we had a look.... For those wondering what that it, here is a little portion describing.... Full details, please visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesla_coil. (My favourite encyclopedia)

A Tesla coil is a category of disruptive discharge transformer coils, named after their inventor, Nikola Tesla. Tesla coils are composed of coupled resonant electric circuits. Nikola Tesla actually experimented with a large variety of coils and configurations, so it is difficult to describe a specific mode of construction that will meet the wants of those who ask about "Tesla" coils. "Early coils" and "later coils" vary in configuration and setup. Tesla coils in general are very popular devices among high-voltage enthusiasts.

A little "explosion" demo.....



Overall, quite an interesting little 'trip'. Seriously, I have forgotten almost everything about what was taught in school about science. Biology, chemistry, physics.... I can't imagine that I have actually studied those stuff in those days... they all seem so foreign to me now.

Something "sad" about this....



Can you spot the mistake?

OMG, I was complaining to Brian... embarassing spelling mistake? and it seems to have been there for some time... i wonder if anyone did complain. And i was thinking whether i should write to them about this.

I think i enjoyed this the most.... wahahhahaha....



do you see me? or do you don't????

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

No Monday blues please.... no monday blues..... haha.... good night....

Home at this hour..... i should be working? ha.... ha.... took my driving test, and I failed. yea... sad to start the blog with a sad event, but well, first experience. not really bothered that i fail. if i fail because i didn't check my blind spot, if i fail because i did hit the kerb or strike down the poles, i'll be angry and disappointed with myself. but i fail cos' of external factors. haiz... yea, i know you are saying that i'm blaming every other person except myself for this failure. maybe i am. whatever the case, it's over. period. don't ask me why i fail, don't ask me how many demerit points i got. thank you.

On a happier note..... My new toys..... :)

these days, we are interested in board games....

see my new collection....



Scrabble!!!! Thanks Dearie for buying this.... Time to improve our vocabulary.



Next, Monopoly! Cute right? Brian got this too......

For those who have not seen me for some time.... I 'chopped' off my hair again..... Some say I look younger.... some say i look cute... some say i look weird....



Ohhh... and my newest toy....





Wanted a PINK colour set... but apparently, they say it's no longer available. And it's an export set..... No idea.

But i still love it!!!! happily ripping all my cds now..... and some shows.... and listening to zencasts/podcasts....

I miss playing mahjong.... kakis, when free huh????????????

If i announce that i went for the SIA flight stewardess interview yesterday at Swissotel, will u believe?

I'm serious. I went. It was a very very long queue. I wasn't eliminated on the spot. cos there wasn't any height measurement taken. But, i got eliminated at the group interview round.

Weirdly, I wasn't sad. I wasn't disappointed. I expected it actually. i knew myself. thus, i only went there to try as it was a dream of mine.

i knew if i were to get it, people will throw me alot of questions. especially those who feel that i am already in a good job with good prospects. some, who will also feel that i'm too old, by the time i'm done with flying, settling down will be at a very late stage. blah blah....

true true.... all of you aren't wrong.

knew a friend... nice meeting u..... Sherlyn (hope i got ur name right!) very friendly and bubbly girl.... wana try again? all the best to u if u r... and like i said previously, if u get in, i will ask u to help me buy things when u fly... hehehhee......

so, now, it's back to reality, things are picking up at work.... guess i'll be busy soon. good or bad? no idea... but i think i rather be busy... rather than constantly looking at the clock, thinking when it will ever reach 1730 and stressing how to look busy. hhahahahahah.......

a very busy packed week ahead.... hope you people have a pleasant week ahead.....

cheers...

love,
cynthia
