Buying Spree...???

Finally, we're back in our house!

The Contractor took slightly less than 6 months to finalise the project that he initially said would take 2 - 3 months tops! By the way we moved back home eventhough he has not finished his work yet! We just could not wait! Next up, with my Personal Shopper : new sheets and stuff for my brand new bedroom! hehehehehe!

Other than that, we have decided to take up cycling and spent a load of RMs.  Of course, I fell of the bike in a storm the first time I went out and the knee is still killing me... :(  Needless to say, I am still storing the bike for when I can walk up and down the stairs without cringing.

The next question is, should I buy a new car? If I am going down that route, will I be buying a Hilux or a  Triton - Double Cab 3.0 metallic fully loaded vehicle, hhhmmmnnnn??? or something else entirely - Innova, Rush, SX4, ASX??? Sooooo many choices...or better yet, spend the deposit on fixing my car?

IMPORTANT FOR SINGLES (or even supposed singles) LIVING AWAY from home & family

Slightly modified from a post (here)

Protecting your home

• Change the locks when you move to a new place. Install a deadbolt lock.
• Get a security system if you are anxious about break-ins.
• Make sure your front door has a peephole - and USE it!
• Insert a piece of wood or a metal pole inside the tracks of any sliding doors to increase security.
• Keep your back door locked. If there is a door that allows entry to your house, keep that locked too.
• Set up timers to turn your lights on at night when you're away.
• Keep outside lights on at night.

Staying safe inside

• Don't advertise that you live alone. 
• Keep the chain-lock in place when you answer the door. Don't let strangers in. If someone needs help, offer to call the police while the person waits outside.
• Ask for ID before letting service people into your home.
• Call 9-9-9 if you hear noises or see anything suspicious near your home. Don't feel awkward; this is what the police are trained to do.

When you're away
These precautions can help you feel secure when you get home:

• Lock up before you go - whether you'll be away for five minutes or five days.
• Have a friend pick up your mail and newspapers when you're out of town. If possible, have someone park his or her car in your driveway.
• Don't leave notes on the door saying that you're out - and when you'll return.
• Before going out, leave a RM50 bill in your home - in plain sight. When you return, don't step inside if the money is gone.
• Leave and call 9-9-9 if anything seems amiss (such as an open door or window). Don't go inside.
• Leave your spare key with someone you trust - not under the doormat or inside the mailbox.

Keeping loved ones informed
Imagine the worst - that you fall down the stairs, have a heart attack or fall victim to a crime. These thoughts may be scary, but preparing for them can make you less vulnerable.

• If you don't know anyone in your area, ask a loved one to stay in close contact. Have that person call for help if he or she can't reach you within an agreed-upon time frame.
• If you have family and friends nearby, give one of them your key. Tell this person to use it if something happens and you can't be reached.
• Let a friend know where you'll be and when you'll return if you're going away on business or vacation.
• If you don't already have a cell phone, get one. You'll have it for emergencies and you'll be able to keep your loved ones informed - by phone or text - if there's a problem.
• Living alone may give you some desired independence, but don't take that freedom too far. Staying in touch enhances your social life - and provides a lifeline between you and your loved ones.

How to release...

your STRESS!!!

Let me sum up my week from (well it was not hell!) the lower levels of something or the other!!!

1.

Sunday - I found out that the District Officer (DO) and his assistant will not be available to meet up with a wedding couple until Tuesday morning...now normally this would not be a problem because they were staying until Saturday...however, they planned on getting married on that same Tuesday! So, luckily the Registration Office was very accommodating and allowed the marriage through! 

Tuesday morning - the guests opted to drive themselves with both sets of parents following - The guys showed up in shorts and sandals! HHHMMMNNN!!! The commissioner's office was the first stop, followed by taking passport sized pictures and then the DO's office...taadaaa...they were legally married by 12 noon.

The beach blessing in the blazin' hot sun of Tanjung Sanctuary Resort happened at the stroke of 6pm! Over and done with by 7pm!

Disco and dinner ended @ 2am!

2.

Wednesday - I went and picked up Fakhrace and Amanda and drove up to The Andaman as I had some wedding appointments and a teambuilding activity at the same time.  Drove in and met up with the organiser.

The DO had a very busy day of meetings and could only meet up with my guests after 2pm.  So they came with the hotel rep at 2:30 pm to meet up with the commissioner for oaths and this time the prospective bride showed up in a tank top and 3-quarter pants! 

On a side note - I got called in to go on air @ 3pm.

Went to the DO's office and found out he had another meeting and he can only meet up with the guests at 4:30 pm, I left the hotel rep to handle the appointment after leaving some instructions with the very helpful secretary!!! Thank GOD!

Called Amanda and Fakhrace and told them that I can't join the team for the teambuilding and went on air at 3:30 pm.  Thank you Lisham!

5:50 pm called it a day on air and introduced the next DJ, who then called and said he forgot he was supposed to be on air! I had to read the news - IN MALAY - and then handed over the mic by 6:04 pm.

Dropped the boss off at the jetty by 6:15 pm and dropped by the teambuilding site by 6:25 pm!

That sums up a wonderful two days this week!
