Tired...

I'm tired of...

... waiting for the chance to ask some questions that has been bothering me
... waiting for an answer that doesn't seem to come
... not knowing what I want in life
... being mistaken

Sigh....

Dinner at the New 7th Storey Hotel

I have been thinking of trying out the charcoal steamboat at the New 7th Storey Hotel for quite sometime. Since my bf and I were met up in Bugis just now, we decided to pop over and have our dinner there.

We ordered the charcoal steamboat set for 2 pax ($29) and another ala carte Hainanese Pork Chop ($13.80). The food came quite fast and the charcoal steamboat is boiling hot... This was the first time I ate charcoal steamboat. The food is that comes in the set is quite basic with vegetables, eggs, fish, chicken, tofu, 2 eggs, 3 prawns, mushrooms... If you do not like the food that comes with the set, there are other ala carte items on the menu that you can choose from. Theirs are not those buffet steamboat with all you can eat kind of stuff. The soup base for the steamboat is very nice... At least I quite like it... :D

The Hainanese Pork Chop is quite good too. It is crispy but yet not oily. Yum...

Total bill came up to around $50+. Not too expensive and nice food. Remember to go there and try the food before the whole hotel has to go in December...

A round that last 13 years

After walking a big round that last for 13 years, I find myself at the starting point again... To find myself looking back at the same old thing. After so many years when I thought I had forgotten about it, when I thought I no longer care...

Random thoughts in my mind...

For some reason, I have been thinking about a lot of things these past few days. I started to think about what do I want to achieve in my life, what do I plan to do, what should I do about somethings in my life.

I began looking back at my life and realised something. True, I have a great job, a wonderful family, great friends... But there's nothing else to it anymore. Till date, I still have no idea what is it in life that I want.

This leads me to think that maybe I should look for job opportunities outside Singapore. Freedom is one thing, but the main thing is for me to experience life in other countries. To experience the culture and all. At least I will be doing something that I have thought about many many years ago. If there's anytime, this is actually the best time for me to work overseas. At least my parents are still healthy and there are people in my house to take care of them. They will then be in the least of my worries.

Ok... Job hunting begins~! :D

Contradiction

Sometimes I think I am a very contradictory person. On one hand I can say "No, I don't think I will ever do this, this, and this". On the other hand, I do not practise what I preach.

For many years, there are some sets of rules that I live by or believe in. However, it seems that I am willing to break these set of rules that I live by or believe in very easily too. Especially when it involves certain things. Things that I let my heart rule over my mind...

I have always thought that I am a very practical person. I will always tell myself to be practical, to protect myself so that I will not be hurt. At least that's what I thought... Not that I regretted but I just find that I'm so contradicting. So silly...

Grrr...

Grrr... Sometimes I think I better bring my mum along with me if I want to buy clothes. My brother's wedding dinner is on this coming Sunday. So I have no choice but to hunt for a dress to wear for the wedding dinner.

I bought a dress from Vivocity during lunchtime yesterday. My colleague and I think I look pretty ok in that dress so I just bought it. I wore the dress to show my mum and sis just now and the comments that they gave was quite bad lor. I was kind of disappointed as I don't think I really look so bad in that dress. So I tried to convinced them that it's not so bad after all but we ended up quarreling. She said that I never listen to their comments so I told her that next time I will just go shopping with her if I need to buy a dress and then I will let her choose what she wants me to wear without even saying a word.

I never understand why do I always end up quarreling with her when I buy clothes. Grrrr....

Drug Allergy...

I am currently suffering from an allergic reaction to a painkiller, Synflex that I had taken yesterday afternoon. At first I feel perfectly fine even though I told my colleague that I did not even feel any effect of the medicine because I can still feel the pain. However, 2hours after I took the medication, something started to feel wrong...

I can feel the area around my eyes being very itchy. I rub it a bit then stopped. After that I started feeling my eyes swelling. I went to the Ladies to take a look at it and that was when I guess that I am suffering from an allergy. Soon after my left eye is only left with a small slit. After sometime, I can feel the left side of my face swelling a bit too.

I went and see the doctor and he confirmed that it's an allergy reaction. I got 1 day MC to rest at home today. :D A rest I badly needs since I have not been sleeping well for quite sometime. Somehow the medication that the doctor prescribe to me for the reducing of swell did not work very well. The left side of my face is still swollen. Just that my eyes are not as swollen as they are yesterday. Hope I can recover soon... :)
