Starting Work, Turning 30 and Grad Studio Photos

Happy 56th Birthday Dad! 辛苦了! Gonna treat him to the nicest cheesecake ever!
U know like most parents, Dad always think big of his children. No matter what people say to hurt me or look down on me, Dad is always proud of me! Thanks Dad!

And Happy 40th Month Anniversary to Jun Wen and I. I hope there will be endless monthly anniversaries with him!

I collected my specs! Was getting really dizzy when I first wore it. But now it is much more comfortable than my contact lenses! :D



I'm starting work on the coming Monday, 3rd of October, too. Same as Jun Wen! So cool that we start work on the same day. We are both at the same pace in our career. Yeahs, so nobody gets left out!
Jun Wen was frowning and freaking out over starting work soon! He named the coming Monday "End of Happy Times". He intended to go out everyday of this week. We went to the movies, the zoo, shopping and ktv the whole week! Lol. Is working the end of happy times? Omg! I'm freaking out now too! I hope the pay will make up for it. LOL!




Are u afraid of turning 30? I was watching "F.R.I.E.N.D.S" and apparently in Season 7 episode "The One Where They All Turn 30", Rachel was celebrating her 30th birthday and was really devastated about turning 30. And other than having a huge banner of "Happy 30th birthday" in the background of the house, it had a flashback of the other 5 friends turning 30.
Joey on his 30th birthday cried to God, "Why, God why? We had a deal! Let the others grow old, not me!"

And at Chandler's 30th birthday, Joey cried again, "And now, Chandler. We are all growing so old! God, why are you doing all these to us?"


Watch this youtube clip and u know how horrifying turning 30 is.

Rachel was very upset about not achieving the things she wanted at 30 years old. Do u have a list of things u need to cross out at the age of 30? If u don't, u need to keep one now!


We are going to turn 30 in like, 6 years' time! It's really soon when u heard people wishing u "Happy 30th Birthday!" Omg! My heart skipped a beat whenever I think of it. I must say I love my twenties! They are the best times I've ever had. My luck and life have finally become better! :D
I hope the last 6 years of my twenties would be very well spent and be really fun too!



I once had a friend who told me she only wants to live till 30. Cos after 30, there will be lots of responsibilities to bear, lots of troubles.. Well... When she told me that, she was 18. She is 25 now. Maybe she changed her mind. Hahahaha. Let's enjoy till 30 while we can then! Make the best out of our situation! :D



The studio photos were out 2 months ago but the blown up one has not.
I believe I have shown some of u but here are 2 of them for the rest who haven't seen them:


Photobucket

My dad bought 2 photo frames from Daiso and they don't fit the photos. LOL! He left the task of putting these photos in the frames to me. I had a hard time adjusting them into the middle of the frame.





Photobucket

I took photos from the hard copy photos so they aren't so clear.
I know I look weird. Lols! Although I always didn't agree when people said I look like my mum, well I agree now.





Photobucket

Dad took the photos and showed them to Cousin and Aunt. Cousin said she thought I looked fat and funny in the photo so she took a photo of our photo to show it to me. Lol! As if I didn't have it in my house.
Yea, I looked so fat! I thought they were supposed to photoshop me thinner. Mei Li Mao!

My younger brother seemed to look nervous in each photo. Think he didn't smile to himself in the mirror enough! :D

My mum wore my blazer. It was just $20 from G2000 sale!
Younger bro wanted to wear a bow instead of a tie but switched to a tie eventually since there were free ties to borrow over at the studio.





And I have taken photos of Jun Wen's studio photos too!


Photobucket

I hope u know which is Jun Wen and which is Jun Jie.
His younger brother wore his SIM gown in advance. Lol. We didn't think of having my younger brother wear in advance too until the shot was over. So I went to advise Simba on asking his younger brother wear it and they don't have to take another photoshoot. :D

Well.. Jun Jie wasn't keen at first to wear the gown since he was very very insecure about graduating. He thought he might not graduate at all.

I was very surprised when Jun Wen told me that his brother was studying his notes the whole day since the start of school. Lols! I laughed it off since Jun Jie used to be very annoyed seeing me and Jun Wen doing assignments for school and all that. I had never seen Jun Jie with any book before! What a big change! Looks like the youngest in the family has grown up. Lols. Hope my younger brother will do the same too. :D




Photobucket


Jun Wen shocked me when he said he did the horse face during the photoshoot and was warned by the photographer against doing it. I was thinking how lucky that I wasn't there with him during the shoot. I later found out that he lied. Lols! Apparently, the thick skinned Jun Wen has become less thick skinned and less embarrassed. Phew!

Finally made my pair of new glasses after 2 years. I depended on my contacts lens totally for the last 2 years. Took the contact lenses off when I reached home but squint my eyes to look at my mum. I have been at home all the time lately, and the distance between the laptop screen and my face is barely a few centimeters. Lol! I can't make out the faces of the characters in the show if I don't watch them closely! It happened to be too much for mum to take so ya.. I had to get a pair of glasses.

The optician told me to wear glasses instead of contact lens everyday. I guess it's a great idea to wear glasses to work since I will be looking at things in detail.

If u are wearing contact lens, have u given your eyes a break every now and then? Don't be like me! :D

Jun Wen was very curious about having eyes tested and wanted to lie to the optician that he has blurred visions recently so that he could have his eyes tested. So full of motive right! Lol. I warned him not to do it since he is not that good at lies. Lol! He agreed at first but requested to have his eyes checked anyway. The optician was happy at first but disappointed to find out that Jun Wen still has a perfect eyesight. Lol!

But luckily he did not also execute his initial crazy idea of getting his first pair of glasses by feeding the optician with wrong information. U know, like during the testing he said the lenses make his visions better but they didn't actually. I said it would be wasting his money! Lol!

Wanna say I have been watching F.R.I.E.N.D.S all the while! Boy, I hope the episodes never end! But I'm now at Season 6 already. :(









I am sure at some point of time in your life, u would have heard of your friend telling u to watch it! And I'm telling u that u have to! U really have to in your lifetime. It's so funny and really touches your heart.























If u have watched it, I wanna say I find my personality very similar to Rachel's. Omg! Tell me if u think so too! :D

And my favourite characters of the show are Joey and Phoebe. They are so cute! Lol.


Oh.. And since I am finally going to bring back money to my parents, I have decided that I want to learn to grow up! I will set my new year resolution for 2012, think about what I really want in my life and work hard. I don't wanna be some Y 头 anymore! :) Hope life continues to be great!
