Work + Fashion + Cheesecake + My Sexy Byatches

Work

For those who know Pogi, he is:

a. not built for physical labour (translation: lazy kient),
b. is not used to waking up prior to 11am, especially on weekdays (translation: Yogi bear), and
c. takes forever to get ready hence always late (translation: minty).

And Pogi + Job is a combination that goes against all science and logic. Who would have thought that I, the definition of laziness (who strives to find a new level of laziness every day), has settled into a real job?

Bit unbelievable isn't it?

But it's a reality. One that I still cannot believe, one that family and friends cannot believe.

I have however adapted to working, before it took me 1hr and 15 mins to get ready: 10 min shower, 15 min nap, 5 mins face stuffs, 5 mins choosing what to wear, 1 min putting it on, 5 mins deciding whether it suits, 1 min taking it off, 5 mins choosing what else to wear, 1 min putting new outfit on, 2 mins preparing and drinking a glass of milk, 1 min brushing my teeth, 5 mins packing my gear and the rest for my hair (usually around 20 mins).

Now I can get ready in 45mins! Superb!!

Work today was a byatch. The last 3 days were busy, I actually felt like a grown up. I didn't even have time to take a nap at my desk or surf the net. How cruel.

Today alone, I had 3 meetings this morning, three! Is Pogi really that in demand? d|0_o|b

But it all worked out good, peeps at work gave me props for my hard work.

Cheesecake

This cheesecake deserves a mention, especially with it's own part in this blog post.

I love you Johana for making this cake.

This folks, is a homemade Mars Bar cheesecake that work colleague Johana made for the office (really for me - cos she knows I have a sweet tooth). She also mentioned her hubby is eating healthy and abstains from sweets. Poor him, he doesn't know what he's missing out on. But advantage Pogi! More cake for me!! :)

Delicious, no?

I had a cakegasm when I saw it. 0_O Then another when I took my first bite.

My Sexy Byatches

Quick shout out to my sexy hunnies Maria (on the left) and Lucia (on the right). This was taken in Parramatta after Karla's b'day dinner. Don't we look hawt? OK maybe not me but the girls!!

Maria I've known since 2nd year Uni, and she is an absolute gem, a beautiful girl and an amazing friend, I have so much in common with you, you are my adopted sister (big sister - hehehe).

Lucia I met through Maria and you too have a beautiful soul, so wise with your words and never afraid to speak your mind.

I'm wearing a Yogi mask because I blinked in the photo (sensitive eyes). ^_^

Notice how these girls are wearing heels? CHEATERS!! You'll never be as tall as me! Mwhahahahahha. *slap*

Mood: feeling sick/nauseous, from meds.

Song of the moment: Dido - White Flag

Working weekends + house hunting = Tired Pogi craving for Natalie Portman

Greed. For my entire Christian life I've been taught that greed is a sin. Only the meek shall inherit the earth. Being my innocent and uncorrupted self, I vowed to never commit this sin. I never cared about money at that age, my parents didn't stress how important money was, I lived a sheltered life and did not start real work till from Uni. I bought things without care of the cost of the item, nor about where the money came from.

But things have changed, I've become more attuned to the importance of money, well money does make the world go round right? Or was that chocolate?

Anyways, I've started to value the role money plays, so here I am, working two jobs, one full time, one casual full time (once a month on weekends) and I am working for money, but not just for me, but for my future family. When (I'm optimistic) I start one, I'd like them to have financial security, spoil them on their birthdays or anniversaries, buy them bubble tea when they want it, etc. Now is that a bad thing? Being greedy for money so you can provide for your family in the future?

When I started my real job, it was a big change, being awake longer hours than my Uni lifestyle was a big change. To put it simply, it made me more hungry! I ate every cuisine in North Sydney, sometimes even two meals for lunch, with my greatest feat, 1 x Oportos big meal and 1 x foot long sub from Subway. Fast forward 6 months later, I haven't put on weight at all (poo) and I've cut down my daily lunch expenditure to $10 (including a Super Slurpee). I'm so proud, haha, now I have extra monies to save for my family.

Finding a house is hard. Finding one with your parents present is even harder because 1. I had to find all the new house locations on realestate.com.au and 2. I had to drive like a granny (no offence to grannys!) because my parents are in the car. i.e. I can't be closer than 4 car lengths to the car in front of me and I can only travel up to 10km below the speed limit. It was a long day. But thank God for day dreaming and GPS. That got me through the day.

I'm getting desperate though. Can you help me please? Anyone selling a property (land or house and land package) in the North shore of Sydney? One that is within 15km of the City, if it is land (at least 700sqm in size) and if it is a house, at least 4 bedrooms, and built within the last 5 years.

So after 6 hrs of driving, I was finally home and was soooooooo exhausted, similar to playing a basketball championship game or playing a tennis tournament.

At this point, I slumped to my bed, I wasn't even bothered to change out of my clothes, and I slept the night away. Uhuh, what a waste of a Saturday night.

But it wasn't a total loss because in my dreams, I somehow dreamt of Natalie Portman (V for Vendetta, Anywhere But Here - I'm not mentioning her subpar performance in the Star Wars trilogy), I can't exactly remember what happened in that dream but it was a positive one. So no scary monsters or falling from buildings.

And here is a remind for those who do not know who Natalie Portman is.

Wow! Just wow. ^_* So hawt, elegant, goddess-like, angelic, eerrr all the good stuff. RAWR!
