But to our surprised, Christine's car cannot be started. Oh gosh.. no battery.. Sob Sob, luckily, Merry's hubby was around. The car got charged BUT the car keys was left inside the car and the door had been auto locked! We spent some time calling for help.. but no use. finally, we decide to call locksmith.
Finally all our problems had been solved! We were all hungry. Den we went for late lunch. But we are kinda late for the session at the Church. So, we change to attend the later session instead. After going to church, We den go to Wal-Mart and buy stuff for our party!

Day 6 ( 20 Oct)
Today is the 6th day.. all of a sudden.. I miss my hubby, I miss my families and I miss home... Unknowingly, tears came rolling down my face. Why do this happens everytime hubby go detachment? There's still 13 days to go.. time do pass fast.. but not the times when hubby is not around. Maybe I'm alone, alot of past things went thru my mind.. the good and the bad.. I got more moody while listening to the sad love songs.. Haha.. I even msn Sheena..telling her " Gal, I feel like to drink".
How I wish I'm in Singapore now. At least at this point of time I can have the accompany of my family or friends. But thinking back, It's not a bad thing to decide to come to the desert. I get to know alot of wonderful friends here.. the wives and my hubby's colleagues. They are all nice people. Kind and helpful to me. Once again, I have the feeling of blessed. There's always good friend around me..old or new friends..no matter where I am.
~~~ BFF ~~~
Day 8 (22 Oct)
But.. I'm too greedy le.. I ate the cake..and now.. I'm sick. I vomited all the food out once I reach home. Think the later of the night is gonna be a suffering for me. :(
Day 10 (24 Oct)
Today I can't get to sleep. I woke up early in the morning 6.30am. Suddenly..I thought of calling 2 of my gal friends and have a conference call. Haha.. It was 9.30pm over their side. When I called Winnie, she was talking to Xiao Min-er! Haha.. The 3 of us chatted happily and crazily over the phone till 3am (their side). This is the 1st time we had conference call together. Had so much fun.
After putting down the phone, I was tire too. Went back to sleep till 3pm den wake up to meet the princess here. Haha. Each of us cooked a dish and had dinner together.
Let's see what we have....
I cooked black pepper mushroom chicken. Christine cooked steamed eggs with minced meat. Merry cooked mixed vegetables. Sheena cooked Tilapia fish with ginger. Lastly, we have Jerin.. not cooking..but she bought can longan and pineapples as dessert. Haha.. what a nice dinner.. but we FORGOT to take photo! Argh... After dinner, we had a "KTV session" cum drinking session.
Day 11 (25 Oct)
Another 9 days and hubby's detachment will end. Around 4.30am, hubby called me and told me that he's coming back from Vegas today. He's so tire working over there.. He said he hardly sleep. He doze off the moment he came back. Haiz.. After hubby wake up, we went out for dinner with a few friends. After tat, we went to Starbucks. Once I sit down, I heard loud bang sound. I wonder what happen. Guess what? It's fireworks! Woah.. the 1st time I saw fireworks in desert. But, none of us know what was the occasion for the celebration. The fireworks was nice.. and it lasted about 15 mins. That's long ah..so enjoying...
Day 12 (26 Oct)
Today we meet up with a group of friends and went to Great Wall for DIM SUM! Hehe.. long time never eat le. After eating, we den went home and pack hubby's stuff and it's time for him to go back to Vegas. Haiz.. Another 7 days of hardship for hubby..
Day 17 (31 Oct)
The last day of October..and it's Halloween Day. Yesterday, we meet up and had a BBQ by the pool side and we had a celebration for Jerin's birthday. I'm glad that she's happy. After the BBQ, we went to Sheena's place for out last "Ladies Night" during this detachment period. Jerin sang the song named 'Dearest' by Ayumi Hamasaki. Wow.. she sang so nice.. her Japanese in singing is so fluent. **Applause**However, when we were half way thru the KTV, Sheena received a call from her family. Saying her grandfather is in critical moment. I witness the cherful Sheena break down. We were all sad to hear the news. But it breaks my heart to see Sheena crying so bitterly. There's nothing I can do but just be there to take care and accompany her. Just how helpless we are when we are in the desert. And our hubby are not with us to take care of the situation. Taking the flight back to Singapore will takes at least 26 hrs. It will be too late by the time we are back in Singapore in this situation.
--> To Sheena's Grandfather: Do rest in peace and you will always be in Sheena's heart
--> To Sheena: I hope you can get over it soon and continue your life bravely. I guess this is what your grandfather would like to see too.
