What I did on my Leave day

I'm on leave today, trying to clear leave bit by bit cos we (being the unprivileged AH pre-reggers) cannot take one whole stretch of leave. So on leave today without much planning on what to do...

Decided to do hair rebonding. Found a cheap and gd home salon (from online forums) and thus, went to her house. Just a simple 4 room flat with 1 room turned salon. There were 5 customers at one shot! haha. All of us were taking turns applying the cream, shower the hair, blowing dry the hair.. and even had to blow ourselves haha (DIY sia)

she used Shiseido rebonding and it was quite not bad. too bad she din help to cut the hair (i guess she only learnt rebonding, dyeing and perming from Kimage academy). It was just $65.

So i headed to Kimage to do a $38 haircut and a $55 protein treatment and I had a 20% discount cos it's a Thursday. was psychoed into buying the shampoo ($39 --> $32 after discount).

The total fee for Rebonding, Haircut and treatment was only $140 which was a huge savings when compared to $208 which the usual salon quoted me (and they were not using Shiseido).

So, i saved a total of $60 although travelling quite abit, buden the travelling fees were at most $4 haha.

If u're interested in this home salon, u can ask me, but it's VERYY west haha.

Medication Error

Toddler rushed to hospital after clinic's medicine mistakes

another evidence showing that a Pharmacist is actually REQUIRED in clinics! How could the clinic assistant reply like that... "I dun noe"... hello, something happened, u want to say you kena black magic and "knocked out" izit? just feeling quite pissed with someone like her with no sense of responsibility.

and see my comment in Medication errors - no one wants to find out...

The birthday test

Suave and compromising. Careful, cautious and organized. Likes to point out people's mistakes. Likes to criticize. Stubborn. Quiet but able to talk well. Calm and cool. Kind and sympathetic. Concerned and detailed. Loyal but not always honest. Does work well. Very confident. Sensitive. Thinking generous. Good memory. Clever and knowledgeable. Loves to look for information. Must control oneself when criticizing. Able to motivate oneself. Understanding. Fun to be around. Secretive. Loves sports, leisure and traveling. Hardly shows emotions. Tends to bottle up feelings. Very choosy, especially in relationships. Systematic.

saw many ppl doing this on FB. only a few qns. quite true, but quite funny too (in some sense some are not exactly true)

1. i'm not secretive wad... hahaha.
2. i'm not kind and sympathetic (more like i'm quite numbed by the multiple comorbidities some ppl may have, in fact, i tink i'm abit cold)
3. Must control when criticising - i think many (esp Attachee and Weiying, the toxic friend) can attest to that. i can really point out every single flaw and be irritable for 1 whole day unless i get more sleep :P

the rest are to some extent, quite accurate.

i hate this feeling

I hate last min work. and I totally hate it when other ppl's last min work affects me.

now i'm just here knowing i've sth to bia tmr and cant start now.

i'm feeling rather pissed.
