The drama at work....

Last week a big drama happened in our showroom!

Something that you will only see in movie setting, happened right in front of me and the story goes like this:

I'm the only one (full-time) in my office. The part time cleaner was doing his cleaning and the sales representative was luckily preparing his documents while waiting for the boss to come in [normally the sales rep don't come to our showroom ]. Suddenly, the sales rep called out for my name and the PT cleaner came running to my room and said:

"Somebody ran into your showroom!!"

"HUH??!? What do you meant?"
I said while walking to the main entrance area thinking there's a client who need my attention.
There was this ang moh guy panicking hiding behind our displays.

Been thinking he was a client, I asked: " How can I assist you? "

" Please help me!!! Those guys are trying to kill me!!"
The AMG said panic-lily.

I stunted for a moment and asked him to repeat again. I scanned him with my eyes from head to toe, realizing his shorts was undone with a huge crotch under his pants! The first impression that came to my mind was he might just raped somebody and trying to escape for his life!! So, I turned to the sales rep and ask him what had happened since all the while he was at the entrance doing his stuff.

"I'm not sure what had happened but he just ran in to hide!"
Said my sales rep.

" Who are the one trying to kill you??"
I asked the AMG as I did not see anyone else there accept himself

" Those 2 guys outside!! And please help me call the police!!"
He claimed.

I looked out to the walkway, there were only our building's security guys standing outside. *confused*

" They were the building security not some other strangers or mafias you claimed they were! "
My sales rep said.

"No they were the one trying to kill me!! Please help me!! Please call the police!!"
He screamed.

I'm afraid and I want to try to chase him out of our showroom but FAILED! So I ask him to explain to me the whole story so I could help him.

" I were checking out of my hotel and wanted to get to the airport. And there were mafias posing as policemen with guns trying to follow me and take my life! Because I knew something that I shouldn't. So I ran and escape!! PLEASE CALL THE POLICE!! I want to talk to them and I want to go back to my country."
The AMG claimed~

Even more unbelievable when its Singapore here, I walked out and talked to the security guards outside and check if there were any suspicious person outside. There was no one and according to the guards, he actually behaved like he was when he was at level 1, going into everyone's retail shops and they had been following him since then.

So maybe he was on drugs or something, my sales rep and I tried to chase him out. At that moment, he pointed at the hairdresser opposite our showroom saying they were there preparing to kill him when he step out of our showroom.

Getting all ridiculous to even explain to him, he suddenly got agitated and he tried to run into our office area when there were knifes in one of our display. I got panicked and without thinking much, I chased after him to stop him!

" I NEED TO GET OUT!!!!!"
He screamed

" THERE IS ONLY AN EXIT IN FRONT!!!"
I screamed while trying to grab him!

He shook off my hands and kicked one of our fixed glass panels!! *like some Jackie Chan movie* All worried, and I seriously need help desperately, because he is definitely too strong for me~ The security guard in charged got angry and came running to the AMG and grabbed him!

They began fighting in our showroom, the security guard's shirt was torn and the AMG's face were covered with bruises. At one time, the AMG managed to run out of our showroom and he left all his belongings in our showroom. The guard immediately chased after him and they continued their fight outside. *pheww*

Awhile later, the policemen came and collected his belongings away and got him to the station. The drama finally ended with a few stains on our floor and displays. But luckily, nothing broken nor our lives endangered though I'm shivering and my heart was beating damned fast~

For that moment, I thought I were brave but I'm actually not!

SCARE DIE ME LAH !!!!!

We dated...

We've been together for 4 years now going 5th this November.
Staying together for the past 4 years and never once left each other for more than a week.
Even if we traveled, we are still.... together.

Now... my house is undergoing renovation and no place could accommodate both of us at a time.
We are separated and we have to be separated for at least a month.

The first few days were a pain to me.
For the first time, I felt something was missing which I never felt before. 
Later, because of my dance commitments, we can't even meet for the whole last week!

Finally, the show was over last Saturday.
He asked and we went dating yesterday!
I couldn't remember when was our last date,
where he will sent me home after or a walk with my hand around his arm.

We just had a dinner, catch up with each other life for the pass few weeks and he sent me home.
YES, it was short.
But I'm really loving it. It was as though we are back to 4 years ago when we just got together.

I don't need any big or expensive actions to be happy because I prefer it to be simple and thoughtful.

Thank you for the date !!

WTF ????!?!?!

I am going to introduce my new column for this blog and it's called,  " WTF " !!

WTF actually stands for:
Where's The Food!!!


Everyone loves FOOD!  So do I~ and I can never resist food!!
In this column, I am going to introduce food I had in all occasions, delicious or crappy, cheapo or break the bank food~

Ratings are definitely based on my personal preferences / thoughts and it can be different from what you think. Basically, I'll rate them on the following:


** AMBIANCE **
It's interior, comfort, etc.


** LOCATION **
The convenience level of the location.


** SERVICE **
It's customer service


** VARIETY **
It's food variety and choices


** QUALITY ** 
Delicious or crap ?

Affordable or overly priced!



I'm definitely not affiliated with any food places I went and these ratings are just for your references.

Teal obsession~

= NAIL ART OF THE WEEK =

I still can't get enough with my love for the teal / Tiffany / turquoise (whatever that you call it), colour nail polish. And so I attempted this simple design with some black... :




I love how this colour goes with black and also the abstract "lace" design with a nude pink base colour.

What do you think?

P.S: My apologies for the untidiness in this week nail art as it was done in a rush... :/

A full of crisis June...

The terrible June finally ended.

So how was your June like?

I would describe it as the month full of crisis. Because we Singaporeans fought with the terrible haze for about 2 - 3 weeks? People were crazily looking for mask to protect themselves. Hmmmm... even for myself!! #kiasi

I managed to tahan for the first few days when the PSI was still around 100+~ But when it hits up to 200+, I started tearing every morning when I woke up and also some difficulties in breathing. =/

Sadly, I couldn't find myself a mask because everywhere just went out of stock. So I decided to order from my all time favorite shopping site, Qoo10.sg !! BUT, till now [even the haze condition had reduced] , I still did not receive my mask!! Hmmmm...

Anyway, I still managed to get those N95 for myself and my family thanks to Darryl~

Me and momo
** Trending self shot then **

Luckily, the haze is not in the hazardous range now as compared to PSI 400++ 2 to 3 weeks ago. O__O
**FYI: Record breaking for the past few years!!!** 


-------------------

A few days after the haze drama, there were rain hail happening in the west of Singapore! Exciting right? I never see it with my own eyes before but if I remembered correctly, many years ago, there were rain hail in the east of Singapore too. So it's actually not something new. However, it still created a very entertaining hooha and I swear its damned funny:


** Who will ever taste those drop, drop, drop, drop like a grape thingy in their own mouth?? **

=_____________= |||


Just when I thought the consecutive drama is over~

There comes the mouth-less kitty but named singing bone craze!!




It was actually a marketing promotion by McDonald's last month. But there is one thing that I don't get. Why does Mcdees always bring in Hello Kitty? Hmmmmm... But anyway, those crazy fans of kitty started queuing on Wednesday *launching only on Thursday*  in order to get their hands on the mouth-less kitty! *roll eyes* Are you for real?? Miss your beauty sleep and buy a meal at wee hours for that orh lu lu / chao ta kitty? Hmmmm...

So what's the commotion with this kitty??


Serious??!!?! Over a kitty? Why? I simply just don't get it... So what if now you got the whole range, and then??!

*shake head*

Even if I'm crazy over Eeyore, I'm not like this lah...Don't have then don't have loh, what's the big deal about it?? Just don't get it.

Anyway, that's the end of the June crisis. Let's hope for a huat huat huat July now!!!

Everybodeh...............
HUAT AR !!!
