Tinker Bell Costume & Earth Hour....hmmmm

So much for trying to update this blog on a daily basis...hahaha....was too busy yesterday to get this updated so I'm doing it today :D.

I've been trying to complete my daughters costume and I was right in my expectation that even though I thought it would be easy to make, it wasn't as easy as I thought it was :(. However her tinker bell costume is almost complete. I have her skirt, top and wings done but I have yet to get her shoes done. Sigh...that I got to do tomorrow. Won't do it today cause if I were to continue, I'll probably start screaming at my daughter and my husband if they even utter a word to me....hahaha...yes, I was getting pretty irritated with trying to make the costume stay on my daughter and to not tear at the same time. Anyway, that part is over and I've decided to use sticky tape on that day to keep her costume on and double tape to keep the wings on. I hope it stays on!!!...It would be so embarrassing for her if it fell apart when she was in the middle of the stage. Aiyo! if that happened, I don't think she would live it down and I don't think she would forgive me le. I better make sure the tape is super super sticky!!!

You know, I seriously hope that all the other parents are having as much difficulty as I am....hahaha...so mean lah me :P. I wonder who came up with the idea in the school for the costume to be made by recyclables???

Anyway, I'm pretty exhausted already and am going to go to bed in a bit. I also did my part in Earth Hour just now and got all the lights in my house off...woohoo! You know, I think in the future Miri should have an event to countdown to the Earth Hour at the Miri City Fan or something like that. Then we could all gather there and do the countdown and see the lights off in Miri town. Then we could just sit there and enjoy ourselves by looking at the stars!!! How cool would that be??? Of course we would probably be feeding the mosquitoes...hahaha....but we could bring our own mosquito repellent, so that is not an issue...true or not???

So anybody up for organizing it for 2011???

Oklah...that's it from me...going to go check my facebook first before I go to sleep....haha...who doesn't :P

Goodnight people!!! And remember!!! Tomorrow is Palm Sunday in church....so don't forget to bring your PALMS!!!

Bye bye for now!!!

P/S. I'm hoping I didn't miss out on any Earth Hour event in Miri today....sigh....if I did that would be pretty sad cause Miri is so small already...and for me not to know what is going on here would be pretty sad le! Nothing happen right???

WOOHOO!!!! I'm Back!!! After 7 Months of Disappearing!!!

Like the title says "WOOHOO!!! I'm back!!!"

You have no idea what I have gone through the last 7 months!!! I thought I was going to lose my job but by some miraculous intervention I got to keep my job!!! How cool is that!!! Isn't God good!!! You know how long I had to wait, before they finally told me I got my job back??? 2 whole months!!! And the worst part was, I even got an email that told me that I didn't get the job!!! It's a good thing I didn't get a heart attack from that....hahaha...and its a good thing I had the right mind to check with my boss first!!! So in actual fact, that email was wrongly sent by HR...go figure!!!

Well, I have nothing to complain about now. I still have my job and I'm perfectly happy where I am now!!! :D I have a fantastic boss....I mean seriously he is...and I must say I'm very blessed :D.

So, that was all the HOOHAA that has been going on in my life.

The next HOOHAA in my life is my daughters fancy dress DISNEY competition in school. The worst part to this is that, the costume has to be made by recycled material!!!

Anyway, she first wanted to go as tinker bell, and I thought to myself 'Hey, I can do that, easy peasey!', then a few weeks later she said she wanted to go as Snow White...and I thought 'Great! how in the world am I going to make that'. So, I searched the internet for some interesting ideas, and guess what!!! THERE WAS NONE!!! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!

Then I started thinking of what other cartoons that disney has produced and thought of BUGS LIFE!!! And I thought to myself, 'Hey! she could be the lady bird!!! That's easy to make!'. So I converted my thoughts into words to my daughter and it was a NO-GO for her....hahaha....so I had to persuade her to go as Tinker Bell rather than Snow White cause I think Tinker Bell is so much easier to make!!!

So I said, 'Lets stick to being Tinker Bell' and she said, 'I want Snow White cause my friend is going as Snow White!', and I said 'But if your friend is going as Snow White you should go as something else so you get a chance to win! if you go as Snow White like her, then you might not win cause there would be too many Snow White!', and then she said 'Ok!!!'

YEAY!!! VICTORY FOR ME!!! So it's tinker bell I would do!!! Let's just hope she will be the only tinker bell....hahaha....*fingers cross*

Now I have 4 days to do it!!! Apparently most of the parents have completed theirs already!!! Well I know for sure that my Cousin has got her son's costume done already!!! Good on you babe!!! But not so good for me.....hahahaha...that's what happens when you procrastinate!!! I'm going to start doing it today!!! Wish me luck!!! Lets hope it is as easy to do as I think it would be...haha. I have a feeling that it just ain't going to be the way I expect it to be :P I'll have a picture of it posted here once it is done... :D.

That's it from me!!! I promise you'll hear more from me this year. My next update...hmmm...tomorrow!!! WOOHOO!!! Hahaha....aku pulak excited for starting up my blog...hahaha...muacks!!!
