Back
Came back on Tuesday night arriving home around 9pm. Went out to collect hubby's car from work place (20min drive away), so didn't get to bed till nearly midnight. Was really exhausted and hence slept till nearly 11am the next day (yesterday). Had the day off but was still a bit hectic (not as much as TTB) due to Chinese New Year preparation and also visited parents in law whom just came from KK. Well.. slept quite late too last night (nearly 1am) because was in the mood to download and view (again and again) all the pics we took during out trip. There are many really funny ones.. hee...
Anyway, 1st day back to work today and was superbly hectic. Found out that a lot of things are not done while i was away when i expected them to. Hmm.. looks like my team still needs more guidance. But well, since this week is only 3 day working week and then we will be getting long weekends for Chinese New Year, so it is not that bad. Didn't get too much 'Monday Blues' today. Hee...

Chinese New Year is just around the corner
Wow.. suddenly we have zoomed passed Year2008.. now the next big festival is just around the corner. Especially today after listening to my favourite MyFM Chinese Radio when i was driving to work, I am very jolly and filled with Chinese New Year spirit!!!! (ha.. like Christmas spirit). This is my 2nd year celebrating the full Chinese New Year back home. My mom has been busy and keeping herself very hectic in preparing new year cookies and snacks. Cleaning the house and changing the curtains. Really grateful to her as without her doing all these at home while we are out busy working, the house will be so dirty! Anyway, TTB and I will be going for a family trip from next Wed. There will be 9 of us for the trip and it will be superb! A real family holiday. I am sure there will be moments of annoyance (lots).. well.. it is family we are talking about, annoyance come as a bonus. HA HA HA HA
Well, for Chinese New Year, I still have the following to do list:
1) Buy new year clothes (plan to only get a new top this year).
2) Change new money for ang pow.
3) Buy nice special ang pow for the immediate family.
4) Buy new year presents for parents in law and some other relatives we will be visiting.
5) Take leave for a longer holiday. Maybe only one more day. Too much to do at work.
6) ... i can't remember what.. but i am sure there are more things. Well.. go with the flow. HEE HEE...
Wishing you all a prosperous and good dream come true year ahead! Probably no blog from me till after my trip. Take care!

New Discoveries...
Having a wound inside your mouth really prevent you from eating yummy food. I have a lot of new discoveries from my 2 days medical leave staying at home and liquid diet.. here some of them:
1) You tend to want to eat all those food you can't eat when you can't eat them!
2) Neighbours do a lot of stir fries throughout the day and the smells are fantastic!
3) You can use straw to drink porridge (both oats and rice) provided no chunky addition.
4) You can use straw to drink mash potatoes from KFC ^_^.
5) Blended tomatoes, potatoes, carrots, crab stick and mushroom in soup made great and very tasty soup!
6) Blended fish and porridge to gooey consistency is like fishy cream soup!
7) Breathing air into your mouth hurts the wound.
I didn't have painkillers today since i need to go back to work and drive a long distant, but i realised by lunch time that it hurts like H**L!!! But even so, i think it is worth doing this since I will be off for a week long family vacation from next Wednesday, so... it is worth this short term pain and no more pain caused by wisdom tooth!!!! YEAH!!!! can't wait..

New Year Resolutions
Happy New Year!
We are in 2009 now.. I can't believe 2008 is gone and it has been a very fast year for me since I was really busy at my new job (not so new now) and towards the end of the year I was really running around like a headless chicken with so many tasks to complete before the end of 2008. Luckily there was the long holiday.. although still busy catching up with social tasks but it was a good break.
Today for most of us is our first day at work. I wonder how are you handling your Monday blues? Hee.. I am not that bad as I am on medical leave today. Had an operation yesterday morning to remove my wisdom tooth that has been hurting me for a long long long long long time (nearly 10 years!). Finally brave enough to have it removed! I have asked the dentist to give me my extracted tooth. Hee.. wanted to take a pic to show you but decided not too as it was not really that pleasant to the eye. =p
Anyway, sorting out my wisdom tooth is one of my new year resolution. Hee.. so I am not doing too badly. What are the others? Well...
1) loose weight (10kg at least)
2) be a better person
3) don't get annoyed so easily with work matters and don't take this back home
4) do my prayers more diligently!
What are yours?
