painfully weird saturday

This morning was a start of a very painful morning - only because i painstakingly pulled my eyebrows - i had the aid of clove oil to elliviate the pain but upon application it stung my skin so that was double the pain - funny it use to work with clove oil anyways i continued with the process overcoming the pain and i have to admit happy with the results inspite of the pain and all.... To think 15 years ago i wouldnt have done it on my won now i know after much practice i think im pretty goood at it lol ok ok ... seems like im full of myself morning - but hey if you dont think positive about yourself who is hehehehe .......

I spent much of last night watching Panda Cam from Zoo Atlanta. Mei Lan is as cute as ever - inspite of sleeping alot this time in a bucket she did some goofing around with her mommy which was really adorable to watch.... Today the black rubber bucket was her new toy - she climbed into it and out of it and finally falling asleep in it. She is a cute little panda - makes me all warm and fuzzy in her 5 mths... The cam usually starts at 11pm Singapore time Monday to Friday but its worth the extra hour or two watching her and her antics. If our time zones didnt clash i would show it to the kids at school - im sure they would love it just as well ....

anyways it beens a long week has been since forver and to add to it my dreams have been weird too - maybe its weird season ... hah! well i dreamt i was in the family edition of the amazing race seeing that my mom and cousins was in the race with me. While mom had to sell fish crackers for 9 dollars a kilo i had to go look for some graphic artist person in the building - i have no idea which country we was in but i remember mud and rain lol ... I think ive been watching too much of the amazing race as well as the developments of the floods in Jakarta - i have relatives there so i guess its only natural you think about it ...

Last nights dreams was none the less weird - i remember correctly i was cleaning or something and my cousins came over cos they wanted to go on a camping trip - they came equipped with t heir sleeping bags, knapsacks and all the nessacary camping gear and then we were on a buss to some costal area... i dont know my minds on overload i think with all these dreams ...Then there was a train station - i remembered the bus was going fast and i was scared especially when he turned sharp corners - ....... sometimes it felt like i was half asleep and actually having a conversation with myself ..

well enough rambling i think im going to go read some news and grab something to eat have a great weekend everyone ....

First February rambles ...

And so another month comes into view - a windy Thursday morning - and a sleepy teacher at her computer doing her first entry for the month.... Whats in store for the day? The month? More challenges? Maybe i think ..Wondering if id get more "C" time .... Last few weeks of last month seems to be lacking in 'C" time - understandable time zones and his school and what not but anyways - maybe it will be better this month *keeping fingers, toes & eyes crossed*

Anyways i weighed myself this morning and i lost a a measely 1 kilo(2.2pounds) which makes the total lost 5 (11 pounds) .. I still have 8kg(17.6 pounds) to go - so i am hoping to reach that target as to not disappoint myself or someone else for that matter...

This morning too my excercise shoes gave way lol .. the sole just crumbled lol i guess it was just waiting to happen - but it isnt too bad considering that my Nike has been with me for about 6yrs - time for a new pair so today after work i am off to get me a new one .... im thinking of trying a new brand that would last longer than this so we will see ....

anyways ... this week was as busy as the last though not as bad - the next few days we would be putting up decorations for Valentines day & Chinese New year - i think its pretty cool - pink red and a splash of orange - pink and red for valentines and orange and red for chinese new year... Im liking February already because of of the long public holidays thats coming up .. Starting February 16th when we have a half day then its work free for Saturday,Sunday, Monday & Tuesday..... I need that time to rest lol .. its funny 7 weeks of vacation you cant wait to get over but when once school starts you cant wait for the vacations or public holidays ..

anyways enough ramblings - time to head out .. .. rambles ya later ...
