i am the PRINCESS here. if you wanna act like a total bitch here, i will turn you into a powerless EUNUCH.
i am a 20-ish working female, born in 1980s. i have lost count of how old i am (yeah), but i know i can drink alcohol in usa.
i am a civil engineer working in a mini company. basically providing clean drinking water is what we do, and honestly, i take this job seriously because i believe if i don't, lives will be taken due to overlook/carelessness of the design engineer. which unfortunately in reality, there are far too many cases to mention.
i can't live without coffee. i drink one cup of coffee everyday and the perfect concoction of making a cup of coffee is 2 teaspoons of instant coffee, 3 teaspoons of sugar and 1 teaspoons of creamer with 50ml of 90 degree celcius of water. a cup of coffee perks me up for the day, otherwise i will end up with a headache. at the moment, i am trying to quit coffee because it is not too good in fact.
i love alcohols too. i am not the best drinker around, and i turn as red as a ferrari when i drink half a glass of beer. but i love to drink, still, because it makes me really emotional and with friends, i become the merriest person around. alcohol can also summon my tears in split seconds on sad days.
i am a shopping-addict-in-the-making. i love to shop but i buy what are my needs and wants, but recently all my wants becomes my needs. good that i have a cute navy boy who gives me supplementary cards and so i don't have to spend my own money.
i am trying to lose weight right now. i have been skinny all my life until i started working, and made me gained 6kg in 4 months. now, i am trying real hard to lose 10kg, but i crave for chocolates all the time.
i love to sew. i have made plush toys, bags, purses and pillows. i even love to recycle old materials and made them into new things and that gives me a real satisfaction.
i also love to design my blogs. i had several old blogs and always do my own design. perhaps i should have studied design back in school, but i wasn't in an environment where people encourages me to do things that i like even it may be unrealistic.

love me or hate me? feel free to throw me a hatemail, or provide me with any suggestions at payepy@hotmail.com.
you can also add me on msn, or facebook, chances are, if i add you, it means i like you, but if i don't, doesn't mean i hate you, just that we probably aren't really close friends.
My favourite fashion website
Monday, June 22, 2009
Has got to be ASOS, an UK-based website. I have been a "loyal" fan for years, even though my sense of fashion hasn't improved quite a bit, but alas, I think it is a vibrant website that gives a very good update on the current trends.
Forget all the so-called "blogshops" with repetitive flower dresses you have seen in yet-another-blogshop-I-saw-yesterday. ASOS has introduces different lines of fashion and it has become a very-habit of my siblings and I to wait for the site's weekly newsletter.
Beware, it can get very addicted browsing through their weekly newsletter:)
******** I want this!!!
As some of you might have known, I have been learning sewing since last July. I have to say the interest is growing day by day, and something for sure it is not a impulsive decision for me to learn sewing. So far, I have made a dress and a couple of blouses, and I must say I did a fairly good job. I wanted to reward myself with this sewing machine, Innovis 50, this coming birthday, but I am not sure if I really need it.
The functions are amazing, and just nice for my needs, but do I really need something like this at this point?
Dylan wanted to sponsor me half of the cost of this machine. I should take it isn't it? But $700 for this? I am not sure if I will be sewing for another 3 more years, even though this interest hasn't die down after nearly a year. But he sees the point that his girlfriend is *special* because I hardly demand for diamonds and necklaces, and asking merely for a sewing machine. A little odd isn't it?
Maybe I should start to set aside $100 each month to fund this hobby of mine. By end of this year, I probably can consider getting it when I know where I am setting my direction in life:) ************************** I am brainstorming for two website designs now. Wish me luck!
Honestly, I wanted to change a webpage design last year. And then, the start of this year I had the idea again. Enough of procrastination. I ought to sit down and do a real good design for my website. Any ideas??
********************* It hurts to know, but never too late to realise. When I thought he was one of the most decent guy I have dated, it turned out he is a big jerk who hurt me too much. We are OVER (the ex, I am still dating Dylan, in case you are wondering), and I have gotten over the paint, yet for a single sentence HHL mentioned to me I got upset over the useless guy. Oh well. But I know I have experienced a rough patch last year and whatever I do now things will get better. For those who wish to be in love or just started dating, open both eyes and see clearly who you are really dating. I do love to be in love, and never afraid to be in love, but when love (past tense) turns nasty, it will always leave a deep scar in your heart.
I am appreciating what I have now, and hope for the best to happen. This has got to be one of the more difficult relationship I have due to age differences and different perspectives in life, but we are both trying hard and giving each other time and patience to develop this relationship, where hopefully both of us can meet.
I am happy for friends who are getting married, and though marriage is not in my plans for the next few years, I still am looking forward to someone who I can love for the rest of my life. I don't believe in "I love you forever" anymore, yet secretly I wished for eternal love. I can't decipher why people aren't looking for love, cos love has got to be one of the MUST-HAVE things I need in my life.
I have absolutely no idea why my inbox is flooded with over thousands of read emails, and another 500+ unread emails.... ARGH!!
Love has been really amazing, and he is the reason why I want to be in love. He makes me angry, happy, frown, laugh, cry, sing, smile, weep, dance, curse, emo, loved, blissed.... the picture of love is never perfect, and every thing he does is like a puzzle piece to a million piece jigsaw puzzle... Everyday is a mystery, a surprise and I simply look forward to each coming day:)
When attempting the station "Reverse Parking (Directional Change)", the minute my car moved in, I know something is wrong. I will either strike/mount the curb, and if I am luckier, perhaps I will have some points deducted for lousy parking. So as I reverse the Vios, just as I predicted, the vehicle strike the curb. "That's the end, there goes my $145 for the day." I thought.
So when the vehicle was out on the main road, the examiner did not use his laptop AT ALL. Worst thought for the day: Fail already so no need to minus anymore marks....
He gave a stern, serious look after the test. There goes my three months' driving lessons and money. Another round of intensive training awaits me...
"You've passed, but please remember your mistakes." The examiner said after 10 minutes of waiting as he was printing out my results slip.
I didn't exactly passed with flying colors, but I am very satisfied with my performances today-- perfect parallel parking, lane switching, checking blind spots etc. Even the examiner praised me when he found out that it was my first attempt and said there were no major problems with my driving :)
Boy's gave me a surprise and is now waiting for me at the void deck now! So glad :) I was expecting only to meet him this Saturday and there he is now and sprung me a surprise "attack". Time to shower and rush out to meet him in another half hour! Yippee!
Having lotsa fun with the new lappie and it turns out the in-built webcam has "Superior HD image quality". I am not sure if one can tell if this is really so called HD, but who really cares when we have so much fun with it. Gawd, I think Dylan will kill me if he knows I posted his "ugly" pictures (as he claims it) up on my blog.
He probably doesn't know about the existence of this place, and I don't intend to tell him any time.
