Right now and also for the past few days, the song that is stuck in my head is Colbie Caillat's Falling For You......hee.
I think i'm having a slight headache because my head feels so heavy and i felt so sleepy during work.... I am already stressed out that we might not be able to get all the planting beds done on time, i really hope i don't get more problems on top of this.... I've already told the office that i'm going to take leave next Monday... So that means i can go to JB on Saturday night right after work.... Yay!
So anway, my skin is like really bad now... I am like super dark now with uneven tanlines... i've got a super obvious tanline on both my arms and my nose bridge(thanx to my spectacles..).....Even my face and neck colour don't match... I so need an SKII mask a.s.a.p....

I am starting to get really stressed about work... I am already rushing through to prepare the subsoil drainage for a lot of the planting holes since the soil is in a bad condition, event day for that site is next Saturday, which is less than 10 days away and we are still far from ready... I don't know whether to say the weather is on our side or not, but the workers don't like to work under the rain..... I hope to get my boots this weekend, so that i can join in the muddy works...
I admit i am learning a lot in my job... I'm still improving my plant ID, i got to learn how to make subsoil drainage, learn how to manage and supervise workers.... I am still trying to overcome my fear of creepy crawlies creeping all over me..... I pray everyday that there will not be any uprooting of any of the huge, tall trees, or I'll have a lot more work than i already have.....
Sometimes its hard when your mind says one thing and your heart says another... i had that problem..... I know a lot of people will say "Just follow your heart", but for me, i tend to do that, and it always doesn't turn out the way i want it...... But at the same time, saying No to the heart can be hard and regretful....and in the end, i'll only end up being indecisive....
sometimes you make me want to say 'i miss you'...

My Daddy's finally back from Brazil yesterday morning, but too bad i couldn't go fetch home because of work.... so as soon as i reached home, i gave him a long-big-welcome-home-hug.... I've missed him so much.... He then showed me that he bought for me this skirt which was tie-dyed and was kind of cute..... and he also bought for me soft nougats which were to die for! I mean they're a lot, but because i love it so much, i just can't help but have it all to myself.... hehe.
I was kind of disappointed that Mama wanted to go back to JB that night itself... I thought we could have more family time together and maybe go see the Christmas lights in Orchard or something.... it has been a while since we've done that as a family...... I'm really glad Papa's back safe and sound..
So work today was alright.... We managed to find a drain that can be used to create subsoil drainage at two of the flowerbeds..... I was quite happy with that.... One less problem to tackle, but still more to solve......
It was funny when i was on my way home just now... When i was walking towards Park mall, it just started drizzling... It was just a light drizzle, but then when i came out of Park Mall, it was a heavy downpour! It totally shocked me...and because of this 20-minute-downpour, i was soaked, bottom down... i was glad i wore shorts and long-sleeved hoodie at that time.... haha.
Still need to get: Still-toe boots, shorts, short skirt....
crush much??

I got to shop at Orchard today! Like finally after so long, it feels great to go shopping... and it feels even better to know that i am spending using my own hard-earned money... I headed for OrchardCentral right after work... I just felt like buying for myself a dress... I got into this shop called The Trunkshop and tried on many different dresses, and the one that caught my eye was this black tube jumper that just looks so adorable i had to buy it... and i think it really doesnt make me look fat......hee. I think i'm going to buy this other dress that i saw at another shop the next time i go to OrchardCentral....and also to taste a piece of one of those good-looking fruit/chocolate pies......
I walked around for a while, then met up with my brothers at Lucky Plaza where i treated them to Pizza Hut for dinner.... we walked around for a while... They then suggested to go watch a midnight movie, but i thought it was getting late, plus i'm working tomorrow..... so they just went ahead without me..... I was already half-awake on the way home, so i think it would be a waste it i had followed them.....
Yay, Papa's coming home this coming Monday! I can't wait because i miss him so much!

I had wanted to get a touchscreen handphone last night but i couldn't decide which to get... So met with Jannah at City Hall, where then headed for ION for a while looking at handphones at the SingTel Shop, then we quickly headed for Holland Village for dinner... We initially wanted to have dinner at 3 Monkeys, but the seats inside were all full, so we then decided to eat at Essential Brew.... and we got to sit on the upper floor where dining is seated Japanese-style...with you know, cushions and low tables, we eat with our legs folded and having a more relaxing atmosphere... it was just so cozy..... Lucky for us it wasn't packed last night.
For starters, we had baby potatoes which i think was sauteed. Then both of us had pastas, but of different kinds; for drinks, i had this warm floral tea called Berries of the Forest, which i thought was just heavenly, and Jannah had a Cranberry Lustre, which was a cold mix of cranberry juice and oolong tea, and that too gave us a head-in-the-clouds effect.... Since both of us ordered dinner set, we were able to share a dessert together and we had this apple crumble with green tea cream on it... and i totally cleaned the plate off.... the apples were only cut and caramelized and had the crumbles baked on top, then there's a spread of green tea cream on it which topped it all off like a cherry-on-top.... EB is so going to be my second favourite chill-spot ever........first is 3 Monkeys...hehe...
I want to go to Essential Brew again!

Went for dinner with 3 of my fellow colleagues, who has become my new group of gossip-cum-makan-kakis...oh and by the way, they're all guys.... it was kinda nice though having this kind of get-together with us landscape contractors.....
So 2 lorries of grass came in this morning for the Fort Green re-turfing site, the old grass at Stamford Green has already been excavated and levelled, so all workers were deployed to do grass-planting the whole day just now.... wow... Horticulture talk is so cool.....hee.
Recently, there has been a lot on my mind. My taking-over the maintenance in FCP... Polishing up my plant identification... Realization of a certain emotion... Management of a certain group of people... Wondering if the newly planted grass is badly affected by the super-heavy rain earlier...
i'm so sorry but i love you.
