diet coke ;

OMG! so diet coke doesnt make you take in less sugar!

" Get ready to ditch your soda habit. I’m kicking Diet Coke — it takes time, and I’m down to five a week from a high of 12, but it’s worth it.

Here’s why: Recent research has shown that artificial sweeteners in soda may interfere with your body’s ability to estimate how many calories you’ve ingested, so you eat more than you need.

In a new rat study, animals that ate fake sugar consumed more calories overall and gained weight, compared to those that didn’t eat artificially sweetened treats.

This is just one study, but it’s enough to make me want to kick the can habit. Need more convincing? For every diet soda you sip daily, your risk of becoming overweight can rise by 37 percent, according to researchers at the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio.

We also know that regular soda is a total sugar bomb — most people I know gave it up long ago. At roughly 225 calories a pop, a 20-ounce bottle of regular soda packs nearly as many calories as a chocolate bar (but is much less satisfying).

Typically, soda also contains zero nutrients — so who needs it? Still have some soda around? Fine, stow it for guests who haven’t decided to quit. Next time you want a fizz hit, try seltzer with lime (or for a caffeine fix, green tea). What are your favorite low-cal soda substitutes? "

so far so good ;

everything is going alright. the people are quite nice.(: and i havent had much to do. and sometimes i have nothing to do. which is quite boring. and scary la. cos everyone is busy and i'm like just sitting here.

like yesterday, my incharge was not in. and i didnt know what i should do. hee hee. so i tried ways and means to find something to do. printing stuff, cutting the paper, helping with the hanging of posters. lol. seriously had nothing to do la.

ended up on msn. telling people about the clearance sale going on this weekend. lol.

today still alright.(:

er. been doing some ads.. and posters.

+ oh shit! i'm hungry.

+ am going to meet up with leslie later. for some dinner and catching up.

some of the colleagues are off for a long weekend! so shiok! *envy! i have to come back on saturday. i work 5 1/2 days. sighs. colleagues are saying that the 1/2 day is nonsense. cos cant do much. been proposing to do away with it. but doesnt work. some of them are working on alternate saturdays.

so much information and knowledge on furniture! its like a whole world of its own!

+ stomach growls!

shall go off now. ciaos!(:

UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE ;

news people!

Patsy Peh has found a job!(: hee hee.

so currently i'm working in the office. the screen is soooo wide! so not used to it! lol.

this is bad ;

i am still awake! have to slp! have to slp! must remind myself that i am working this week. and have to get up early.

went for supper with edwin and gang. cos i was super hungry! and we stayed there till about 330am! long supper huh. shrugs.

super cold day! shivers!

everything after this line is just about some things i feel to talk about.(: so no names will be mentioned. besides mr.sim's! hee hee.

every relationship has their share of bumpy roads. or fairytales. i think i'm glad mr.sim and i are quite alike.(: somehow. and he appreciates the nonsense things i do. hee hee.(: and i'm not as a control-freak anymore.(: or i hope i'm not. hmm. am surprise that i can take whatever nonsense criticism he says about me. and i'll just laugh it off. like when he says i'm fat. and shouldnt eat anymore. i just laugh and continue to make noise saying that i'm hungry. and make him buy food for me. hee hee. and i'll just eat. regardless of what he says.(:

seeing how other peoples' gf is treating them. i feel bad. they will ask why are girls like that? and i'll just say. girls are like that. its in their nature. they cannot help it. cos i'm like that too. hopefully not as bad la. (at this point of time i should question mr.sim.) listening to their stories. i feel probably shouldnt do that. or try not to. hopefully. sounds kinda bad. like how girls go about holding another guy's hand while out together with bf and friends. or how girls go about snooping into the bf's hp/stuff and question them. and refuse to let them do the same to their stuff. although i think i have done it before. but that was like 2-3 yrs ago! now i dont go through mr.sim's sms/phone/email. i dont! i ask his permission before seeing his phone k!

somehow i think its wise to treat your partner how you want him/her to treat you. for example. if you dont want your partner to snoop into your things. then dont snoop into theirs. its that simple.

+ oh its raining! no wonder its so cold!

i guess you seriously need 2 hands to clap. nothing can be done alone. not in a relationship. both parties have to put in the effort.

have i grown wiser? i hope so. or at least i hope i'm not that naive silly fairytale wishing girl anymore. one whom expects everything to be done her way. and do nothing about anything.

+ i should really dry my hair and slp!

thinking back. i was seriously naive. seriously.

+ from now on i shall make it a point to label my posts.(:

i heart disney!

am watching lilo & stitch on disney channel now.(:

absolutely in love with disney shows.(:

have i mentioned that i'm working for disney on ice now.(: hee hee. 1 of the few perks of working as an usher.(:

i really really like disney productions.(:

am becoming too much of a couch potato!

like finally ;

i finally coloured my hair!(: like after so long! first time! whee!

PAM DYED HER HAIR TOO! and it FAILED! (terribly) hahaha.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

i miss the morning ;

haven't seem the morning light in ages. since i left poly i suppose. but even when i was in poly. i was rarely awake at this hour. oh how i miss going to mcdonalds in the morning for breakfast.

misses. i miss so many things.

probably having too much time on your games makes one miss the past far too much.

OLD OLD OLD ;

AH! i found old old photos of me ans mr.sim. okay. not that old. but seems old. er. this was before we got together. and i made him take silly pictures with me! hee hee.(:



and look what i found! from the same day! old karaoke photos! we used to sing karaoke till 6am! and thats after work! i have the find the rest of the photos!

upgrades ;

new upgrades to template! yeah! nothing much. just random shifting and inserted new stuff.(:

reminiscing ;

its weird how sometimes people change. how once good or close friends become so distant.

i guess for my case. it has to largely my fault.):

seeing how i dont meet up with my secondary school classmates anymore is kinda sad. and actually seeing them still so close with one another is just making that feeling worse. sighs.

and it wonders me why i'm still so close with xuezhen and seokhui even after secondary school.

why did this friendship work and not the other? i ask.

the answer i'll never know.

part of me feels that this has always been a slight problem. that i was never actually part of the group. even when we were in secondary school. but thats just me.

and another part blames my poly schedule.): being all packed up with projects and datelines. and submissions. and work too. oh. and boyfriend. juggling way too many things. just didnt have the spare time to make an effort.

things with xuezhen was different. we always met up in a few months. either for valentine's day, my birthday or someone else's birthday. we would arrange and meet up. like recently we just met up for seokhui's birthday.

i dont know. probably i should make an effort now to improve the friendship with my classmates. probably. i should.

better to have more friends than strangers right?

or was it, better to have more friends than enemies?

shrugs. whatever it is. i guess i'll have to make the effort to make it work.

ps: sidetrack a little. mr.sim says i'm very willful.): rah him!

the many lonely roads.

trying out the blog function of the phone.(: i should really slp now. nights. will update proper soon. kisses!

i was told to blog ;

since someone is complaining that i dont blog and she has nothing to read. so i shall blog. er.

spent most of my time at home!

went for the air show on sunday! and got totally burnt! and took many random photos with pilots and air crafts. lol. i insisted that i will only take with different uniformed pilots. and only the handsome ones. and mr.sim insisted that he will only take with females. lol.

oh oh! my lunch is back! blog later!

BACK! *licks.

<3 the day out.(: it was fun. and i enjoyed it. got totally burnt though.):

randomness ;

and during the randomness of the night i edited the template! lol.(:

now its white! instead of the usual white. i miss having my old laptop. with photoshop! at least i could have made many many many images with it. but this lappy doesnt have photoshop. and i doubt i can install it in. as it doesnt belong to me. (although its like half-mine already!) LOL.

oh! today yesterday pam and i went shopping! i'm done with my CNY shopping.(: bought all my clothings including shoes and bag. still considering if i want another pair of shoes and accessories. hmm.

was reading the write up on edison's sex photos. hmm. they claim that the photos are doctored. shrugs. however many have done certain research in the matter on their own. and found some similar items in the photos and a edison video. dont have the photos. you can go do your own research! LOL.

the write up i was reading

HK news is juicy! LOL

its not like we have paparazzi here in singapore.

edison ;

and so all rich and famous gets their dirt out on the internet.

edison chen

he's threatening to sue me, and file a police report against me!

so drama ;

and so today i got my yearly CPF statement. and i realised that the previous company hasnt made a single deposit into my account at all since June. nothing. nil. zero. didnt really noticed it. till i saw the amount deposited. its too little for a full time job. and so the mystery it solved! no deposit has been made at all. making me forgo wasnt good enough. he has to "eat up" my CPF too? sighs. JERK!

and my brother so smart! he lost his hp on a cab, without knowing which cab company, cab lisc no. sighs. luckily the cab driver was nice enough to drive the phone back. oh and he has to make up lessons! and my mother found out. so she's cranky!

i have to call him tmr. and deal with him again to get back my CPF money! sighs. hate this.
