1.finish the little nyonya that i've missed when i m abroad.

2. clear up my messy closet and room. (gonna take years)

3. clear up my cargo ( haven even really empty my cargo since i touched dwn on 20th)

4. Look for another cargo and claim it.

5. Look for another lens cover. (lost it on xmas day, boo)

6. Pack for the next trip.

7. cut my hair

8. start planning for my hkg trip in feb and book accomodation .

...and the list goes on..

i wish we have 48 hrs a day.

And worst of all, my leave is coming to an end..i m still feeling festive!haha..

Merry Xmas n happy new yr!!

SICK

here i am, alone in Los Angeles, feeling sick, lonely and miserable. I have never thrown up so much in my life, my stomach has never felt so empty. i have just become the PR of the dear toilet. dunno which damn food cause me so much trouble on my flight and make me look so bad.
instead of being sympathetic, i felt dirty looks.

i wanna go home...

perhaps the only comfort is my flat tummy now.

Very random

Weekends are always too short.
Me and hoh wasted our weekend nuaing. Saturday evening spent running errands, sunday we reached Hort park only @ 5pm to welcome the rain and later dinner with my family.
Ok sunday was my fault cos i slept only at 6am on sat to wake up to a freaking 3pm, blame it on jet lag.

Sunday night was again a sleepless night, i had to pop melatonin in order to induce sleep at 2am!
I hate that feeling.

anyway, I wish we'll have more discipline to wake up earlier next time to enjoy a longer weekend.

New york entry is in the making but i am off to sydney tonight. (hi again, aiwen! haha)
and my milan photos are way overdued. I give up.

Talking about discipline

Things were fine in a group. no strong urge to buy anything while the rest shopped and buy.

I don't like pressure while shopping, nor ppl waiting for me so i left the group with the aim of taking pictures leisurely...

Then this got over me...

So i ended up with the following. Shit....

It must be fate. i shopped the 1st 2 prada stores with the crew but there were no stock of the colour i fancy. the 3rd one ,i went in alone and that's it. i got the wallet i was eyeing almost a yr back.. my fave was white but i will not get another white wallet to dirty it in a month. so...i settled for the 2nd best on my 4th trip to milan... only on my 4th trip.. so am i disciplined or not? ha

ROMA ROMA

Milan time : 10.46AM (5.46PM -SIN)

Just woke up not long ago. yes @ a freaking 5pm sin time, but here I am. still considered an early bird.

Sneaked a few minutes of my stay in Milan now to blog about my last trip to ROMA.

My 2nd visit to ROMA happened just 2 months after my 1st visit. this time round, weather was welcoming!

My Samsonite cabin bag, faithful companion for the past 2yrs.

I was supposed to catch a nap to energize myself after a long flt, but cant help to try my hands @ my new cammie.hiek

The boring view from my room. Level 2 @ an ulu golf resort hotel far away from the city.

The bed i knocked out totally for 2 nights. room potraits to remind you where u are.

After about 2 hrs nap, I head to town with few of my colleagues.

Drinking water. Lotsa such points ard rome

i love how the colours flashes past young mum, vivian.

A nice cosy restaurant that serve not so nice food.haha. was too hungry to show you how hokkien mee the cabonara looked. the ambience did make up slightly for the awful meal.

on my way to vatican, the smallest independent state in the world.

Just me and the grey blue sky.

The queue was so much better in october, i managed to enter the St Peter Bailisca.

Don't think ang moh country, u can wear skimpy clothings.

Few pics which i took inside the catholic church...

Faith

What lies beneath.

This is St Peter's square. Notice the cloud of black hovering on top? was lingering around for quite some time. Could not figure if they are birds, insects or bats. quite scary.

Night fall

Venezia mask in rome.

i love this pic and the contrast between Newborn "A" and Iconic "A"udrey in the background.

Sights i see..

That's me .p/s i love the umbrella above.ha.

A rare Chinese restaurant around rome and our saviour for the night. Cost us only 6 euros for a 5 course satisfying dinner compared to the 10 euros "hokkien mee" carbonara.

Had a super good sleep and woke up to a cool sunny rome!

Vandalisim is a trait of italy. Loving the sunrays!

Spagna station.

The historic setting against the modern.

A warm cappucino to start my day.

MAcdonalds in rome

Traces of summer we see during Fall.

Italian brand, Gucci

Cutie mini bus

Someone's hope left in Fontana della Barcaccia. i wonder who picks the coins up and what they do with it.

This is how the fountain in rome got rich in history.ha

Fontana della Barcaccia

Right after this, my camera went flat. totally flat. Was very upset, cos i really love to take more pictures of my fave spot in rome, the Trevi fountain. Thanks to my colleague for the rest of the pics!

Trevi, the richest fountain.

I will be back again. With my loved ones the next time round i hope.

The cool stairway of Louis Vitton, it switches to its logo some of the time.

Santa Maria della Concezione dei Cappuccini, also called Chapel of the Bones. I swear i was not smiling by the time i stepped in.

Each time i see these pictures, my hairs will stand. It is indeed very very creepy.

Undeniably, it's an unique sight no one should miss. The crypt was finely decorated with bones of Capuchin friars over many many years. And some of the figures look mummfied with faces..

Next, we went colosseum and some roads are closed due to the massive demostration.

I have no idea what the demostration is about . i just joined in for fun.ha..

waited abt 40 mins for the rest to go in cos i've been in there. sat and walk around to enjoy the weather and people watch.

Headed on to Basilica di San Giovanni

Really very holy

Finally a more decent dinner. i had lasagna and it was great!

Phew , super long entry lo. started with uploading in sin, went milan to blog halfway and finally finished this post in Sin again. what a tedious piece of work.
