2am

It’s almost 2am and I’m still wide awake. I’m tired. But my motor is still running. I think it’s because of the hype about the decorations that we did in the Parish Hall tonight. Hehe. Myself, Maggie, Diana & Audrey..and oh Jusip too were busy decorating and getting the place ready for tomorrow’s wedding. Vic and her bro, Donny, did came in to help out for awhile. Well we were there since 745pm and come to think of think, I have never stayed back in church til very late. We went back at about 1.20am! Imagine that! But no doubt we had loads of fun decorating especially the balloons and the signage (we are so proud of our creation!)...hehe! Audrey even suggested that we all quite our jobs and go into the field of event management, haha. And Jusip would become our balloon pumper, Diana the balloon tie-r specialist, Maggie the master of balloons arranger and Audrey the ribbon maker. We’ll make a good team. Hahah! Well, here’s a sneak peek of what we did....:p

Pump pump and snip snip


Balloons galore!


In the beginning

Will upload more photos soon to see the outcome of our decoration session..hehe. My bed is calling me and I need my beauty sleep right now. ;) Time to hit the sack! Good night (or rather good morning!)

Breathe in......breathe ouuuut

The past few weeks have been very much eventful….filled with works, meetings, band and choir practices, preparation for Holy Week & Easter and now preparation for Jo’s wedding. Whooh! It’s all full speed ahead! I wasn’t even able to take a pit stop after Easter. The activities for the week ahead were already waiting in line! There’s the Naim market study which causes me to have a certain kinda fit to which I barf out housing units (sigh), the "never ending journey" of valuation reports to do, the Miri Easter Celebration meeting, Youth Service meeting, band and choir practice (Maggie, Audrey & I will be wedding singers tomorrow…haha, and with only 2 practices I hope we don’t slaughter the songs! Gulp) and preparing the decorations for the wedding tomorrow (Maggie & I are far from done. We must get it all done tonight, yikes!) Oh, I also have some cards to make as well….oh dear! And come Sunday, I’ll be flying off to Kuching for my company’s annual dinner. I hope I won’t ‘pancet’ halfway through…haha. However, in the midst of all the hustle and bustle, I was met with two surprises, which, of course are the highlights of my week! It gave me that warm fuzzy feeling of great delight…yumm! First was that I found out that my Aunty Cia is preggers! Praise God. Whoohoo! After seven years, lil Latana & Keepat will be welcoming a new dedek soon! A new addition to our already huge family by end of this year! Hope that I’ll be buying pink booties! hehe. Christmas will be extra special! The next news is that, Jusip Willits is in Miri! He’s baaaack! I missed him. It’s been 4 yr plus since he visited Miri, where we all shed buckets of tears when he went off after his 8-month stay…and it felt as if it was just last year that he left. And now he’s baaack to attend Jo’s wedding. I was so shocked to see him with all those facial hair! Haha! He looks so familiar yet different. There’s a mature-ness about him, oh and he’s added some flesh to the once scrawny bod. But deep down inside he’s still the manchal Jusip we know. (yea, check out his FB and you’ll know why) p/s He wants to sing Kampung Love during the wedding reception. I can’t wait to see that. I hope he brings a suitable costume for the performance…! ;p
I’m glad those surprises came. They are much needed in moments like these. In addition to that, here’s a moment I would like to share.
This "took my breath away"! Haha..

Our very own Yang Dipertuan Ah Kong William underneath his royal payong with his butler.
p/s In conjuction with our company's 35th anniversary, everyone gets an umbrella each. It's soo blue..so unlike our company colour which is yellow and black

I guess that's all for now. So, here’s to an action-packed weekend! Bring it on! :p

Eek!

I know….it’s been waaay too long since I’ve last posted anything here! I’ve left it cold & dark….*creeepy*
So, here’s my attempt to put some light & warmth to my blog (finally)!

Last Friday, it was William’s (aka the colleague aka small boss) birthday…well it’s not his real birth date but it’s the registered date in his IC (identification card). I don’t really remember why his birth date’s different on his IC….I only just remember that it’s got something to do with him being born in the Solomon Islands. Am not really that good at remembering details lah…haha! Anyhow….. it was actually an impromptu decision to celebrate his birthday…and we surprised him with a cake in a shape of a red truck, (which seems to be more suitable for a 5 year old boy...but you know, it’s just perrrrfect for William!), specially bought from Our Daily Bread, a party popper, a nice flower chocker made of ribbon from the cake box (another impromptu creation) and a creative photo frame made from our company’s manila file adorn with red hearts. Aren’t we a creative bunch of people?! Our management should be so proud of us! Last but not least, we opened up the sparkling grape juice which has been sitting for much too long in the fridge. It was part of a hamper gift given to us last Chinese New Year…hahaha! (p.s. we did check the expiry date and it is still drinkable). It tasted rather sour though! Nonetheless, we had a great & sweet time celebrating & poking fun at the birthday boy. ;)

So I’ll just leave you with some photos which we took….enjoy ya!
