To be Simple is Simple: The Results!

TADAA!!


*click on picture to enlarge ya!*

I admit the pictures are not in the sequence of how I wore them because I'm anal and I think this sequence looks the best when put up together. =P I also admit that I did not exactly wore the flowery dress for the weekend like I planned since... well, since I stayed home throughout the weekend. So there was no point to dress-up. But I did make the effort to put the dress on and take a picture. Hah! But yeah, this little mission thingy is doable after all. And I think I can safely declare that I made it through the week without looking all that unfortunate after all. :D

Early Morning Realisation

I was getting dressed this morning when it just hit me like Bang!

Nah.

It was actually more like sneaky 'realisation' came sneaking right behind my conscious.

That the one hour of frowning I had earlier this week while picking my clothes for our little 
I-hope-we-don't-look-like-some-idiots mini project, well... turns out it also saved me from an entire week's worth of my daily morning frowning routine. Hah!

I woke up this morning, switched on my computer (Terrible right? I know. I know.),
went to the toilet, took my bath, came back and got dressed. WHAT? No staring at the cupboard or digging through my pile of clothes? Eh? No panicky moments as time runs out 
and I just put on whatever that wasn't all that bad?

Nope.

I just got dressed with what was already a pre-determined set of clothes and sat 
in front of the computer with lots of time to spare. Hmm...

Nice.

But if you're thinking I'm all out with this new plan, then you're wrong. Nope
I don't want to frown an hour over a week's worth of dressing on a weekend night. 
Not gonna happen. In fact I can't wait for next week to come and all that little 
panicky moments along with it. Yay.

Girl, it’s Time to Man Up!

It’s going to rain. Sounds of thunder can be heard. It’s dark and cool. The perfect weather for an afternoon nap. And mind you, I don’t usually do afternoon naps. *stares at her bed* I want to snuggle in there so badly but I can’t. Not until I take a bath and wash my face since I just came back from my half-day 'temple excursion'. And I can’t take a bath. Not until I process the lunch I just ate. I know. I know. But that’s just how I roll. :P Girls are so weird sometimes most of the times. No wonder boys don’t understand us. Heck, I think we barely understand ourselves half of the time. LOL.

Seriously. I should just man up and go to bed.

Aiming for the Perfect 10

It's been a looong time since I slept for a Perfect 10.

Tomorrow is a day off and I'm thinking of executing Operation Perfect 10. Let's see. If I go to bed in another hour's time, give take 12.30am then I have to sleep till 10.30am. Hmm...

The Obstacles:
1. Going to bed by 12.30am today.
2. Sleep all the way through for 10 hours.

Now, you will think that no.2 is not that hard. But you see I have an internal alarm clock. Tick tick tick. Regardless of what time I go to bed, it rings approximately after 6 hours. That's how I get up each morning. Simple mathematics. Gotta get up at 6.30am. Count backwards. I'll sleep before 12.30am. Anything earlier, lucky me... extra minutes. Anything later... boohoo.

So, that means I'll wake up around that time again tomorrow morning. Snooze my internal alarm and goes back to sleep. Now, remember when we snooze our alarm, it goes off again in another 5 minutes? *sigh* So does my internal alarm clock. Maybe not in 5 but it bounds to go off again. So reaching 10.30am is easier said than done.

But what's tougher is going to bed at 12.30am. How? How? I'm the perfectionist Virgo. -.-;; I want Perfect 10. Perfect 10.

Gosh I'm whiny tonight. Eww... I'm going to bed.

Good night world.

It's in the stars!

My phone credit expired last Saturday. Without credit...

phone = useless

Well, it still tells the time but I have my watch for that.

I rarely make calls except for the sms "I'm on the ferry now." to my dad. Sometimes I add a smiley :) after the message if I'm in a happy mood returning from work. Fortunately the smiley appears very often. Hey, good food awaits me at the other end, who wouldn't be happy? I admit I'm a food-driven person. Anyway, 10 minutes later I'll give him a miss call indicating I'm arriving soon and he can come pick me up. It's a daily routine that I usually get the timing pretty right.

Okay, the point is. This is not the problem when you have expired credit because there's "Call-Me-Back", a service Hotlink@Maxis has, which I'm not too sure about others since I've been coded 012 since I got my very first phone 5 years ago. I won't say Hotlink is the best but I'm a loyal person *bows* or silly? *shrugs* So, I just have my dad call me back instead.

So, what's the problem then? And after 3 paragraphs, there's nothing about stars. Why that title for this post?

I'm long-winded and I'm sorry. Bare with me, I'm getting there.

The other way I spend most of my credit is on my daily horoscope and zodiac readings. Hey, I’m no believer but I fancy the words they use in their very short and amusing messages. This is another daily routine I do every morning, also on the ferry, this time on my way to work instead. It prepares me. It guides me. It gives me hints about the day ahead. Hah, I still insist I’m not a real believer but it’s damn amusing. I personally love the zodiac reading – Rat.

Here’s some examples I keep in my little phone till today. One day I am gonna exceed my phone memory with these stuff.

Often, great rewards come at an exacting price. Indeed in matters of the heart, one must prove one’s affections and toil to have them reciprocated.

21/03/07 Rat
Obstacles will be like a pebble in the sandal, a minor discomfort easily dealt with today. Indeed it will prove to be a most auspicious day for the Rat.

13/03/07 Rat
Seek out the library and the wisdom of old Rats and there you will find the answer to your conundrum. Ask, Rat and the answer will be presented to you.

Honestly, how cool are these?

This was the very first one that I kept till today. Dated last year.

19/10/06 Rat
Any arrogance will be most unforgivingly punished today. The emperor will seek humbled intelligence, thus clothe your wisdom in a robe of humility.

Clothe wisdom in a robe of humility? Whoever is writing these stuff, can you teach me to write like this?

Thus, 4 days without guidance from the stars, I felt lost. I felt I'm missing an important daily lesson. But all hope is not lost, I've since updated my credit and getting my daily dose of guidance again.

01/04/07 Rat
Few can better you at that which you excel at Rat. Those who come in search of conquering you and your territory will be easily and quickly rebuffed.

Ah, the way of the Rat has been found yet again.
