i didnt realise choosing a honeymoon destination is one of the most difficult decisions ive had to embark on with khai. less than 3 months from the actual date, we have yet to settle on a destination. so far we have shortlisted SA Tour as our most probable tour agency. the period we are going for the honeymoon is between 20th jan to 30th jan, anything more than 10 days is just too long. we havent decided on the most important thing whch is the actual destination. ive been pouring through online agencies for weeks now. so far i have categorised the countries as follows in order of our most preferred:-
1. Educational tour (Turkey,Greece)
2. European tours (usually combining France,Amsterdam,London OR Italy)
3. Beach (Maldives,Koh Samui,Mauritius)
4. Scenic tours (New Zealand,Switzerland)
a few weeks ago i was set on either maldive sor mauritius. the past few weeks it seems that the world has been going on red alert for another tsunami devastation. going on a beach vacation in one of the worst hit tsunami devastated beach is suicide.we will meet up again this weekend to discuss our plans. adding on the list is Khai's dubai. i told him to reconsider if he's keen to be straddled with me against a camel hump in one of the driest desert in the world on our honeymoon.

preoccupied with these two:-
1) meeting work target
2) wedding preparation
Less than 2 weeks of slacking has resulted in massive backlog at my end (by slacking i mean clocking off from work punctually at 6pm and no unpaid OTs).
Bought my bedroom set. Inputs from mum, she insisted I go for the 3-door wardrobe which I feel is so unnecessary.
Came back at 10 just now. Had to attend 3 night inspections at my estate to determine the occupancy status of units. Some of these people owing so much and playing a game of cat and mouse with us. For some of these cases, they dont even stay in the unit. Established 2 out of 3 safe to recover.
A few days ago one of my lessees cursed at me. Dramatic huh? Sounds like a scene in Drag Me to Hell. SHe was exasperated that she could not delay the recovery of her unit despite her lies and her accusations. She had nothing to pin on me to get me to cave in to her. In the end she 'cursed me to die', her exact words. My colleagues were teasing me to get a repelling spell or a spiritual shield. I was quite pissed with this woman. Hers is not even a compassionate case that deserves to be handled sensitively. She was not even occupying the unit of which she has accumulated a massive amount of debt for. She was just trying to buy time. She had no right to curse and swear at an officer of the government. And if I was there to witness it, I could send her to court for it. Such a nasty woman.

They tore down our workstation. I feel so exposed without my workstation. This is a temporary arrangement, they remarked. No difference between the support staff and the management professional under this new seating arrangement. Everybody is just thrown all over the place. I hate this new arrangment. I want my workstation back!

I deduced that I am a nerd. It seems that none of my friends of the same age could remember the Sci Fi Series Roswell back when they were young. Here I am stuck in the Roswell limbo after having rewatched 2 Seasons of Roswell in less than a week.
Had a weird dream yesterday by the way. I dreamt that I was interviewing for the post of a Babysitter with this family who have 2 disfigured-looking toddlers. I cant remember in what way the toddlers were disfigured but the memory of the dream was disturbing enough to send chills down my spine even now when I think about it.
Was at the library during lunch time looking up New Zealand. Fiance has been suggesting New Zealand since we last striked out Maldives from our list of Honeymoon destination. Didnt quite like what I saw in th travel guide for NZ. Honestly I may be a thrill seeker but Im not really a nature loving freak. I prefer travelling for the sake of history. I have been trying to persuade to consider Turkey. Volatile political climate, he remarked. Ok fine too dangerous. Australia, I dont know. Seems too much like Singapore without the Great Barrier Reef and the Kangaroos. Worst case scenario, lets just go to the States so I can go shoe-shopping at Bloomingdales and Saks 5th or buy a Coach bag at a much a cheaper price than here in Spore.
Met my girls just now. Juana turned 25. Almost didnt make it due to an urgent report that had to be done by the end of the day. Thankfully the report was completed a few minutes after 6 and had to rush to Plaza Singapura. Buka at Manhattan Fish Market. Fiance was not too happy about this. He actually went through the trouble of checking if the place was Halal. (Sorry dear. I promise you after we are married, I will keep the toaster Halal to bake your buns ;P) My friend remarked "Congrats Aini, you completed a torturous report". I told her that drafting the report is the least torturous process. It is the 1 to 1 vetting session tomorrow with my short tempered boss that is the torturous ordeal. Sigh. I have to constantly step back and remind myself: Be patient Aini. His BITE is less severe than his BARK.
Hari raya is next week. The tailor has warned us that my clothes might not be ready on time. I have not baked my Hari raya cookies. My room is still in a mess. I have an eviction case scheduled after raya. I am not looking forward to lebaran this year. I did not even get to attend any terawih. I hope to clear most of my work by this week.
No more dreams with disfigured babies I hope.
Liz Parker, Signing Off...

When I asked you to describe me as a person, you tell me I am a heavily guarded person. Yes I admit I am like that with most people, sometimes even those closest to me. I dont cry unless out of anger. I dont break down. My own mother has never figured me out. Being at the mercy of people, that is just not me. However I have NEVER been like that with you. This is my confession, I am not afraid to be vulnerable with you.
When you tell me you love me, I feel like the feelings come from under your pants than from your heart. Are you afraid that I will break your heart if you let me in? Or are you just so broken that you dont have a heart to begin with? If latter is the answer, please let me know what broke you so I could a figure out a way to fix it.
I knew I could love you from Day 1. I knew I could trust you and that you would never break my heart. Why werent you able to feel that with me? Am I not your soulmate? Do I not set your soul at ease, as you did with mine?
When Max Evans first professed his love for Liz Parker, he gave away everything about himself to her. That connection is essentially what made them soulmates.
You are an enigma to me. I have let you into my heart and into my life since Day 1 when we met. But until now I have no access to yours because you are still guarding yours from me.
You have 118 days more to open up to me. I want to know every single detail about you.
