Updates: November Birthday month

Hello!


It’s been a month since my last post. 
Recently it has been a crazy weeks for me but overall it's still good.
In fact, November and December are my favourite month of the year!

The reason is simple.

November is my birthday.

December is Jesus’s birthday (aka Christmas).

Since 2007, December became even better; coz Giselle’s birthday falls on December too

Since last year, December is even the best, my niece was just born on Boxing day! A day after Christmas!

I miss you already, Chloe :-) 

So back to topic again, these few weeks have been crazy and at the same time, excited week for me. 

I just finished my final exam on Jap advance class last week, celebrated my birthday, and soon prepare for the N3 test again! 
Since I failed N3 on last July, I will retake on this coming Dec so pls pls pls God, lemme pass my N3 this time round with flying rainbow mark!

Prior to exam day, I was so stressed out, studying till 2 am every night, as expected, right after exam’s over I crashed and burnt. 
In fact, now I’m still down with flu and sore throat and still in recovering stage that’s why I have not even have time to study for N3! Ok ok must start studying tonight.

How I’d wish I can study in the morning (coz I’m a morning person) but I’ve spent my day working in the office, labouring and stuff, and by the time it reaches night, my energy level down to hill and what I want to do the least is to touch my Jap textbook... Ok dilemma aside, I really need to drag my lazy bum and start to revising asap!

Aside from Jap stuff, recently I have interest to explore my Macbook. So far since I own this Macbook, I only use safari and mailbox application...

What is page? Ah don’t bother, LOL. Keynote? Issit power point? LOL

Imovie? To create movie (obviously by judging the name) but still I don’t know how to use it, LOL.

Yep, I’m shameful to myself coz I own Macbook but still don’t know how to use its basic function.

What trigger me was actually, I just bought staff purchase, the latest version of Win2016 for Mac, which only launches a couple months ago! The price is $15 freaking cheap. Retail price maybe $199??  (correct me if I'm mistaken)

So after downloading all these shits into my Macbook, it triggered me to explore more applications in this powerful tool and decided to borrow tons of guidebook in the library and even to the extent of joining the class, too! Ok, next year resolution is to explore iWork!

So overall, these 2 things (Jap final exam and Mac’s class training) were occupying my first 2 weeks of November.

Then come my birthday, Friday the thirteen....

I was so sadden by Paris Attack, why of all days, they choose that day to launch the terror attack!? 

Many victim died by the shooting and bombing, many people mourning about the loss of their loved ones, the whole world mourning. What we can do now is to support Paris and pray for the lost souls and the same time, realizing that terrorist are REAL problems now that the WORLD is facing right now, and plan for anticipation. Pray for better world, for a better place to live for everybody with no regards of skin colour, race, and ethnicity.

Anyway, my birthday this year, I have a total of 6th time celebration. Let's go thru one by one quickly, shall we?

1st: my colleagues celebrated my birthday in advance because they thought that I’ll be on leave on the actual day! Turns out on the actual day, it was so quiet and awkward coz I'm still working on my birthday but its ok I really appreciate for the cake and the presents. Really love the Craftholics I can hug it while sitting in the office. 



2nd celebration is on the actual day, we went to Miz Japanese restaurant for a dinner and I got the nicest purple flower bouquet of all! I don’t know why LG thought that I love flowers actually I’m not really into flowers but don’t mind to receive one. LOL. Thanks for the Adidas gym bag and Starbucks card now I can coffee-binge till Christmas. LOL. 





3rd: Celebration at home. It was pretty simple by singing song and blow candles but appreciate the effort. Oh ya I supposed to celebrate with usher’s team on Sunday but I swapped duty with Anee coz I got Jap oral speaking test on that day, sadness....

Thanks, Sephora for the birthday gift! 

And also, I'm buying a proper American Tourister luggage for the very first time! 





4th: Thanks guys at GXFit class for celebrating my birthday after work-out session.  Lots of photobomb here and there seriously but I really appreciate the prayers and we had lots of fun putting calories back.  LOL.



5th: Met Carol for sushi-binge at Sushi Ryoshisushi in Liang Court. Love the Japanese sponge cake OMG so moist and I’m drooling now by thinking about it. 


6th: Met Anee in another Japanese restaurant, Kojitsuru Nabe at Bugis Junction. Love her company and catching up with each other. Next time my treat, ok ! hehe...


After that we celebrated one of the sister birthday at Stuttgart Cafe on last weekend. Took lots of photos such as these...




 That's all!



Ok I better go back to study again...

December is going to be an exciting month. 

Basically, DnD, N3 test, stock-take, Christmas celebration, services, dinner, till end of the year. All fully booked!
Oh ya, I’m going back to my hometown for Christmas and new year, to celebrate my niece 1st birthday celebration. 

But I’ll need to bring back my work too so will be working and holidaying at the same time. 

Till next year!? *ok will try to post again next week month*

Thanks for reading this wordy post.

Ciao
