Yes finally! After weeks of anticipation, the results of my 1st online shopping spree have arrived!! It was tough to arrange to meet my fren to collect the dresses but finally!! Ok, the bad news now -- Only 5 out of 10 dresses arrived. And out of the 5 dresses, only 2 are mine. Damn sad! The furnie thing is those dresses are not even out of stock. They were just not shipped!! Weird..But at least we will get refunded..We better get refunded. THe nicer dresses are not shipped over, so I'm rather sad now. Hmm, maybe I'll re-order those missing dresses 'cos I just cannot let go of them!

Hey gals, check out the website CCT Fashion. The dresss are pretty cool and KAWAII (aka cute). Yes they are CHEAP as well. Quality-wise, I would say, you get what you pay for. Not too bad, but pls dun expect Gucci or Prada standard ok. THe dresses cost $15-$20 each only. And they look similar to the pictures on the web. And they fit me ok..Happy.

The stupid company made mistakes so couldnt get my hands on all my dresses..so i shall order again! This time, I'm back with a Vengence! I plan to order at least 3 more dresses and 2 more blouses!! Hahaha...

Investing!!

Opened my 1st CPF investment account with UOB and invested with Prudential..3 different funds with average returns..

According to my advisor, I can be a millionaire by the age of 55!!if the average returns remain at 5%..wow..a millionaire!! Yes, age of 55 is a turn-off but at least I have a chance of becoming a millionaire! The word sounds so great--Millionaire hahahahahaha

The good thing about CPF investment--I don't have to monitor it 24/7! Just put the money in & let it grow...well, since I can't use the $ until I'm at least 55 or 62 years, might as well invest & make it grow! More retirement money so that I can retire comfortably..Migrate to another country even!!
Just started the running regime..Yes I still do not like running but you can't swim everyday...N running is quite shiok at times..A great cardio workout after all the perspiration..

2nd run in 2 weeks..7KM and I clocked 33minutes!! An improvement of about 6minutes..I shall train more often and shave more minutes off my timing..hopefully..Of course this is subject to availability of time taking into account my stupid work nature (audit FYI) which is well known for irregular hours and late nights...

Wakeboard Craze!

I'm in Love with Wakeboard...AGAIN!!

yES After 4 years, I have picked up wakeboarding again, and this time I'm back with a vengance - faster and better! Went with Daixing and Meei Ting (EY colleagues) in the afternoon for a 2-hour session with William, our instructor.

Yes that's me wakeboarding! It was so cool! Surfing left and right, left and right...

OOh, and I got to drive the boat for a while! Which was cool! Just like driving a car but on the water...


Everyone of us managed to stand and wakeboard for some time, of course I was on the water longest! Bravo to Ting Mei, for being able to stand up just after a few tries! I did not manage that when I first started out. Stupid daixing just kept falling on her 1st try that day, even though she's not a beginner and had been able to ride the other time. But luckily for her, she managed to regain her reputation and ride like a pro the 2nd time. Or else, she would have been a laughing stock among us!

I am so going to wakeboard again..Maybe next time I can try the jump!Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

Half wire - Oakley
Polarised Half Jacket - Oakley
I want to get a pair of sunglasses!! Torn between these 2 designs - Half wire or Half jacket...They both look so damn cool! S$240 retail price for Half Jacket, not sure about half wire but should be more ex..Anyone has better lobang for this?? Maybe I shall treat it as a gift to myself after the measy bonus was paid out...Or should I wait for my brother to go Australia and source out cheaper rates? maybe I shall wait..Not in a hurry anyway..Shall stick with black 'cos the other colours are just too striking (bright gold or pink) but then again, who knows what i'll do
Anyone wants to buy it as a birthday gift for me???
