My recent weeks have been filled with Korean dramas after dramas. (Secret Garden / Personal Taste / My Princess). My hub was just happy I found something to occupy my time so that he don’t feel the pressure to entertain me. ;p In fact, I got him hook on one of the drama – Secret Garden. hehehee…

While watching My Princess one night, my hub sat next to me

 

Hub : Hmm.. all Korean female seems so aggressive in the dramas. It’s like the man loves being torture of something. tsk tsk..

Me : Really? hmm.. nola. the guys are so sweet. they give in to the women they love.

Hub : hey dear, you wanna start watching japanese drama?

Me : oo… why ar? Is there any good ones?

Hub : The japanese women are so much more demure and gentle. Not sure if it will be good for you to continue watching korean drama and getting the wrong idea. You are already a big bully now.

Me : WAT? !!! (whack hub with pillow)

 

 

esh…

After waiting for 2 long years, the developer finally send us letter of VP (vacant position) to our house.

So,hub and I made appointment and went into their office to collect the keys to our house.

 

 

As we unlock the front door and walk into the empty new house, I was not sure how I feel.

excited?

of course i am excited… but it was more the calm type of excitement versus the jumping up and down screaming on top of my lungs type.  Hub say it’s probably because I have let out all my excitement-steam since I was overly-hyper and excited during the first year.

But, i think it was leaning more toward the stress indicator.

Why? getting key also means that we have to start spending a lot of $$ ….Initially when I was running around comparing prices and getting quotes, it didn’t really hit me as hard since no ‘actual’ money was being spend yet. On top of that, I have hear enough horror stories about lousy contractors. Hence, the thought of following up with contractors, checking that all finishing of renovation is good seems like a nightmare.

Anyway, don’t get me wrong. I am very happy to finally collect the keys to our house. Now, to make it into a HOME. wish me luck. :p

While waiting for my copies to finish printing at the photocopier area, I stare out the glass partition at the aquarium outside. My boss recently decided to add an aquarium there and fill it with 28 redish looking fish. It is really quite beautiful watching them swim around. Since this is our new pets, we all took pride making sure they are all ok. So, when I saw my colleagues pointing and staring intensely at something inside. I decided to ‘kepoh’ (busybody).

I went closer and wham my forehead straight into the glass partition.

2 of my colleague on the other side look up when they hear the loud thud and starting laughing when they saw me rubbing my forehead.

 

sigh…
