Am at work and in another half hour I can finally leave. Work has now become monotonous. I'm not getting that bored because everyday I get to meet new people and have different things to do but I think I need it to be more challenging which, is why I've been looking for things to do every single day! Only thing I'm shying away from is rearranging all the files. It's not messy now just that its horrible to look for files and sometimes they are not there. So Joanne and I have decided to rearrange the entire thing to make them easily searchable for everyone. Have we started? Of course not....its just a matter of time.
Apparently we are getting new computers at work complete with LCD screens! Just can't wait as our current ones are getting old they keep hanging on us for no reason. It's Friday thank god! But then again I have to work tomorrow, its such a pain. I have to show apartments till 3pm! And guess where I'll be going to straight after? Paddington Markets to get my bags! Can't wait to get my hands on them especially that big one. And I so love the smell of leather bags especially brand new! Apparently there's a Gary Castles shoe sale this weekend too, maybe I'll go get myself a pair of white shoes too. Then I have to go over to the city to get my boss a present. Its his birthday on Sunday and he nicely told it to us by saying, "Apologies in advance if I am not present for the meeting on Monday as my birthday is on Sunday." Let's just hope the meeting will be cancelled instead!
Oooo this weekend I'm planning on going to Koh-Ya for a yummilicious dinner, gym and swimming. Goce has been working us so hard at the gym I can barely walk. We did leg press but the ones you do for your calves? So they are basically on tiptoes and I was doing 120kg!! Fel was at 190kg. Goce really really knows how to push us and he was going on about how its our natural strength and he said "Imagine if you come to the gym consistently how heavy you would be lifting later on." So imagine little Sarah pushing 200kgs....as if that would ever happen! Anyways I better start packing up and all that, wanna go siwm a little after work.
P/S: I originally thought of doing a Friday Fives but the questions were silly!

Sunday, August 24, 2003 :::
After all that bitching a week ago, I officially have no more bitching to do! I believe I had my fair share of bitching haha...yeah right! As if women can ever live without bitching about others. The weather today was horrible, thank god it didn't hail. Currently I'm listening to some instrumental music playing and the growling noises my dogs are making as they play catch around the house. The have covered the lounge area, now where I sit at the computer and even ran upstairs. If it weren't too cold outside they would be jumping around the backyard and across the fence that Fel built to prevent them from falling into the pond. Keigo (the younger dog) has fallen into the pond probably thrice. Each time he'll be whining and whimpering but never learning his lesson! Now that he's so much bigger he's so unafraid, he's even unafraid of us. Jack Russells are nightmares!
Anyways enough about our dogs, our weekend was pretty quiet. We had a dinner party yesterday at Trish's and CQ's. I made a caesar salad and bought a chocolate mousse cake from this little french pattisserie near my work place. It was yummilicious! But I think their cheesecake is so much better. We have yet to try their chocolates though. Talking about chocolates on Saturday we went shopping! We went over to Paddington markets even though it was raining and I ordered 2 bags from this leather place Trish was raving on and on about. They are just fantastic as they are hand made and/or made to order. Initially I just wanted to get myself a clutch bag then I saw this really nice carry bag fit for work so I decided to buy them too! Will be able to pick them up next Saturday as I ordered them in a different colour. It cost me $200 only! Can't wait to get my hands on them soft nice smelling bags. Later on we walked along Oxford Street for a bit, saw some stuff at Satch that I like but didn't get them. Need to wait for my next pay check. Sigh, the joy of living under my parents budget was so much better than under my own! Anyways after the much unneeded temptations we had our really late lunch at this quaint little Thai place, it had really good ambience and deco but too pricey for the food that they served. It didn't taste that good at all. After that we headed to Max Brennars! Their chocolate is just to die for. This time around Fel had Suckao with dark chocolate, I had Milk Chocolate Shake and their ever delicious Strawberry Fondue. I reckon they should open a bigger store as we had to wait for like 10 minutes to get a seat there but then again it's worth waiting for! Will definitely have them again next week when I go pick up my bags. I will definitely be in total heaven! Oh and I need a pair of white heels now......Fel's sis, Irene just came back with a new pair of shoe and those were the exact same ones I wanted to get! Should I get the same ones? Irene is a huge huge huge fan of shoes, you should see the garage, it piles up with her heels.
I also need to get a nice outfit for next month. Fel's birthday is coming up and I'm taking him to the highly reputed <Tetsuya's.(Voted Australia's best restaurant next to Rockpool) Initially wanted to book us in for the weekend before his birthday but as usual they are booked out so we are now gonna be celebrating it on the day itself. As for presents, obviously I won't be publishing what I want to get for him here. I already have a good idea of what to get its just saving up for it and fitting Tetsuya's and the present into my budget! But hey it's money well spent right? Anyways I'm off....Keigo has been farting the entire day and he just pulled a massive one on me am choking as of now. I swear I did not know dogs could fart this much! Keigo should've been caleld Farty instead.....HELP MEEE!!!!
