a random weekend

2011-09-18T02:04:00.000-07:00

winky is 3months old now. attention seeker. nipsbut overall a wonderful lovable companion. the family loves her to bits, although sometimes, her nips got us irritated and we have to be fierce to her alittle.. love it when she calls her own name. Winky! makes us smile.

mum just gave us(my sis and i) our birthday present. well, she seldom give us presents so its really a pleasant surprise. I have actually ask her to get me a gold abacus pendant-kinda represent counting..kinda represent my work. so yep, she finally got it. and she won 2nd prize category for 4d too. lucky her. my sis and i actually request more gold from her so she might be able to win a bigger amount for the next bet.teehee.. excuses.

today the whole family(including the bfs of my sis and i) went to Chinese Garden for the last day of the moon cake festival. there's nothing much to talk about though, except a dare' that brandon request and i did it for an ice cream. love it when both of us just sit down by the basketball court, seeing the ids bouncing the ball, and us eating and exchanging ice cream.

still although weekends are short, but im cherishing every bit of the moment and time i have. doing and not doing things. getting prawns for bran's fish tank, wash bran's car while he is back to work on a sunday. trying to syco him to get a package-$600 unlimited manual car wash by me for a year,in my house car park. hehe. and i told him i might close down after 2weeks of car washing. haha im a scammer.

hoping weekdays would be like this more often...

2011-09-04T02:05:00.000-07:00

recently, nope 2 months back, 29June2011, winky the she lovebird was born(i don know if its that accurate). well she is a big girl now. having lesser baby formula but still cant indepedantely feed on her own coulourful pallets. Im praying hard she will start feeding on those soon. t

Winky, the female cinnamon peach face lovebird was such a cute hyper, talkative lovebird. everyday after work, i will call out to her and she will will greet me with two happy chirps. but recently, she has been acting knda quite. no more 2 chirps and would prefer time alone in the cage more then outside like before. she would bite, nip hard, or 'pinch'. there are many times i feel like beating her. but i have to remind myself she is just a bird. no scolding or cane on her. i would talk to her. keep her company. but she would get tired and then bite again. I have trying to introduc treats to her. seeds, chilly, grapes, carrots. you name it.but she would refuse to touch any of it. How am i going to teach her tricks if she doesnt have her fav treats. sigh... Im helpless with her.

but no way i'm gonna give up. I will continue to find her fav food. I love u winky. Please stay healthy.

2010-10-13T05:37:00.000-07:00

I had fever and heart burn on my birthday. how miserable... one of the miserable birthday i had..

hmm does that mean i didn't pass my supposely age yet?

BE CLUB GATHERING 2010

2010-08-22T03:17:00.000-07:00

got to know Jielun since Poly but never had a chance to talk to him. Every other gathering we had, the girlfriend would tag along with him, so i guess i don had a chance to know about him.but i'm glad i came for his gathering, if not, i would never know we stay in the west, and he is my primary school senior!! haha. when i told him i was from Clementi town Primary, he was like,' my 2 sisters are from CTPS. nobody really know CTPS is call CTPS and since its no longer call CTPS. and he is now staying the block next to Brans'. i'm gonna try to visit him one day.

its been 2 weeks since i started working in BD. other then the working time which is really early!!! and the weird culture. i think everything is quite ok. my colleagues are nice and helpful. the canteen food was actually ok but now im getting tired of it. well one thing that makes me stay on now is having a lunch, mail, complain kakhi. she is sitting at the very left side while i sit at the very right and in between us we have almost 8 tables. and the only comunication is through sametime. i need to find something else to make myself move on...

Happy birthday favourite boy!!! and the last day of 1.5months nua-ing

2010-08-12T08:40:00.000-07:00

HAPPY BIRTHDAY FAVOURITE BOY!!!

hehe.. this year's birthday has been better then last years. in fact, dearest seems much happier then before, prob due to his work and where he is now.. Happy!

dearest managed to take a day off today. he hasnt had much rest for the last few days due to national day and YOG.. and he was told he couldnt take any leave on his birthday due to events again.

ok, lets back track abit on what we did. went to pick dearest in his work place. had Russian cusine in Far east shopping centre which is kinda lousy for both of us. and then movie 'salt' in Jurong point and finally we picked my dad home and slept.. woke up really late for 'basketball' lunch in Liang court. walk around and then taka mont blanc(which he decided i should get him maybe later later) and ion and some shopping before i finally got him an Acme pen which we have try to get it for 2 years. dinner at some chinese resturant which is actually not what we wanted. and then more window shopping and birthday cake and home.

tomorrow is the first day of work.. and im still awake now... ok bye..

random july

2010-07-23T06:37:00.000-07:00

movie watched for the day.

1) The last song
2) The time traveler's wife
3) Dear john.

movie watch previous day
1) Fantastic Fox
2) Planet 51

Friday: All the love shows makes me feel like i don't need anything other then love in this world. its weird. their life are so simple.. and it gives that feeling ' you don't need anything other then someone you adore to keep your life moving'. i wish in reality like this.

Sunday: Just came back from dearest co's family day. get to see how dearest work at work. i know he loves what he is doing now. and i'm glad he is where he is. the only thing i'm not happy is that he has very long working hours and we seldom have free time together. i yearn for his free weekends. but it hasnt much happen yet due to his very busy schedule.

I miss those days when we can go for picnics and crayfish catching on sundays, but i don't get to do it at all now. his sundays are always tuitions and events. like last night, i thought he finally had a free day and we could do stuff together.. well i ended up reading a book in yew tee mac while he tuition his kid.-_-.. anyhow this makes us miss each other more i guess. i think i miss him more then he does?.

sometimes, i wish i could do more to help with his very busy work life.i'm getting there though. i'm glad i'm able to send him to work on weekends and i know he needed that so that he could sleep more. i try to pick him from work during weekdays too. i open his letters and try to pay his bills as necessary as i could. hmm i ask him to pay for my online purchase which kinda overlap all the nice things I have done..oh well.. (he offer to pay me $50 per day for packing his room.)

realise i have been nua-ing too much and then 3 weeks had pass.. next week is fourth.. i had so little interviews, like only one, and i send out like numerous resumes.. its really bad with what i'm asking and looking at for my future...

oh yea, maybe i should sum up what i have done this month.

1) i met up with peiqi and soonchye for lunch. promise each other for a prawning session ytd which didnt happen.
2) fly kite with mum and bro(call him every single afternoon so that he can come back home and accompany me. apparently he loves basketball more then me, so it didnt happen afterall)
3) one interview at chinatown follow by a movie with zhar(free movie from cathay)
4) attend wes and zhar's school work in @scape. and then prawning with zhar and fen in pasir ris. love letting my friends knows my friends.
5) family ktv gathering for the july birthdaters at NUSS and prata after. pick dearest at work and send my cousin home in katong.(how nice of me)
6) pump 3 times 50dollars petrol in 8days due to travelling all the way to east sside and north east side..(wes, zhar and fen)
7) blading with fen one time on a saturday when dearest is working.
8) rejected two job offers (im crazy)
9) finally heard shan voice after XXXXX days/months because of the stupid F&N offer.
10) bake cake and bread with denise and jiapei in kallang. dearest pick me up for dimsum before i drop him off for work at 11pm....
11) 1 pint hagan diaz after almost a year with rock musics and dirty legs in the car at 11pm.
12) crab feast with my uncle and mum and granny and aunt at joo chiat all thanks to bro's belated birthday.(ok i only had a small piece-alergy)
13) ass stuck on the sofa for the whole 3 weeks while sending resumes out and hopefully to get some calls after...
14) buy 4d and toto and not win any...
15) slept till almost 12pm every single day..
16) trying very hard to pack my stuff in the room.. but only manage to bring them out and make it more messy after that, and then dont know what to do after the mess.
17) tell myself everyday that i will go for a run in the morning, and tell myslef in the morning i will go for a run in the evening when its not to scorching hot and then tell myself i will run later at night when there is no sun(in the evening) and tel myself i will do it tmr... and it never happen...
18) watch as many movie online as i can..(but streaming are either slow or it doesnt bother to stream)
19) photoshop and montage my photos but not started at all.
20) im jus being lazy and i hate it!

world cup final 2010

2010-07-16T04:15:00.000-07:00

the last world cup match was non-sleeping at Marina bay sands with Wes and my favorite boy. well the always lost in hougang me, went down hougang the first time without exiting the wrong exit. i really hate travelling that area. so complicated. anyway, the match is a disaster though. i was moodless after the draw in the 90mins. im stuck with a negative 100dollars.. sad..

dearest had to work after the match and its a freaking 530am!! heart pain... well i got to drop wes at his place, but before that, we had ba cho mee around his place for breakfast.. we had a long talk and thats where i end up stuck in the morning traffic. the traffic was really bad.. i hope i won't have to come across this kinda traffic.

dearest will scold me if he sees this.. i end up dozing of again and again and almost cruze myself into a lorry infront of me.. no more late night drive.... for a week..hee

regret...not?

2010-07-16T03:59:00.000-07:00

i hope i will not regret rejecting the offer i had with F&N food. I guess if its not for the first impression, the stupid agent and the praying answer i had in the temple. i would not have made this decision.

Please let me not regret what i have done...

sigh... its really hard to find a job though... and I drop 2 in a row...

good move miss chen!!

BCA...=(

2010-07-08T11:12:00.000-07:00

I got a position in BCA.... but i'm going to reject it tomorrow.. sigh...

i think i would love the environment, the pple, working hours...and all... but the pay is way to little compared to my previous job.. i'm so looking forward for this interview, this position.. but all they are giving me is a poly pay..

whyhwyhwyhwywhwywhwywhy, why can't i have the balance of everything...tmd!!!!

lets hope my next job would be better, lesser OT. nicer superior(which i doubt it). hmmm and approachable colleagues.

hello ERM..

work

2010-04-08T05:43:00.000-07:00

lately, i have lost abit of focus on where i'm. i have learn the hard ways too long and it makes me tired and exhausted and sometimes it makes me inefficient. i look at myself and wonder what i had done. but i always couldnt have that courage to say its time.

i did tender my resignation after i blogged the last time. but i ended up being told to stay by my boss. she told me stories of a lotus that will only grow in the dirtyest and muddiest water and how it is so useful in and out once its grown. i just kept quiet. i had fight for my uncertain for almost 4 months. it wasnt a good fight to myself. i was looking into death, and hopeless future.. it kinda makes me into a person that wouldn't dare to look into the future.. sometimes, i wonder if there is anyone out there facing the same way as I am. but when i look at my friends, i got more angry at myself for being a stupid woman. i should have known my 3 years in school will end one day to.

this rough ride had make me feel the reality of working life yet again. i wish i had a normal balance life.

where am I?

2010-03-21T07:44:00.000-07:00

1) Im beginning to dislike my company (it includes people, job scope and PEOPLE!)

2) i WANT to tender my resignation tomorrow

3) Life have been suckier ever since I stepped into accounting

4) Lets see some pple learning Architecture in my Co and see how they can say, ' u didnt study this in school meh?" TMD!!!

5) My convocation is on 15th April next month

6) I escape from work because of people, and now im facing them again.

7) it takes time to walk this path as the road is full of rocky
maybe u dun have the experience yet..
but i believe u will learn...not in this office..
u just got ur degree, a fresh grad...of cos u need some guidance..
independent come through yrs of learning too..
u cannot learn it overnite...
well i guess u feel bad is because u cannot cope with this line of work..it is a total swap for u.
i know it n u know it too...

Larry..

8) better opportunity is better environment
cos a place right for them doesn't have to be right for u

Sebby..

9) I met up with Thomas (temple khaki) last Sunday. He treat me dinner and listen to me.

10) Lifes still beautiful when you have friends

insomnia

2010-01-28T10:53:00.000-08:00

i know i'm very stress.. and its now 2.53am and im still up in the living room. i have cried numerous time.. eyes are swollen.

i have try not to think about work, i have try to walk in the forest in my dream, i try watching simple life in channel 5, try listening to 95fm from mp3, try listening to my other songs in MP3. and now, i ended blogging. i may go read a book later..
the worst thing is, im havng fleu and cough and it makes me feel more emo-ish. i just finish closing and it wasnt a good one. the 2 girls in my co =. had to end up doing my b/s and P& L for me. which is really bad, cos they know what to do and they were just trying to finsih my work for me. this is my first time closing a full set. and i'm already taken back with my ability in this field. i know i shouldnt think too much, i need more practise.
i don know if i'm moving too fast being in my position. im still learning though, but it has become tougher, my mind is swallowing every unwanted details, i'm lost with the whole procedure and there is no one i can realy turn to in my co. the bad thing about my co is, we are all doing our own stuff and we don't know what others are doing. i have no one to consult to when i have problems and there seems to be no team building in my co. we see each other parish and answer for themselves. its like a hassle to ask question.. no one tells you what to do, you just have to find it for yourself, but with the work load that im carrying, i feel like its hard to ask (infact there is no one to ask other then my boss though) i don like the idea of asking stupid question to my boss.

i had been busy for the past 2 weeks and i ot-ed everyday. my body was kind enough to help receive all the aches. but my mind had been deadly. its always in the scared mode, and the stressed i had during uni-exams has been hunting me again. my heart pound fast, i think of the negatives, i have the 'i can't make it' mentality. i couldnt sleep. i woke up in the middle of the night crying. my world close when people try to enter. i try to cheer myself with the 'i can earn alot in my future' which is really crapy, thinking you are not who you are to strive this much. its all coming back and i don feel myself being like this when i'm in Archi.

What are the odds that i may end up tendering. i can't feel myself serving well for the co. i had to end up asking the 2 girls for help in my next closing. maybe im not lucky with any job.. every job i got into, i end up reporting to my boss. can't i just be a normal acct assistant for a year? now i know why pple left the co. within 6 months. now i know why i always compare accts to archi, and archi ace it for most.

now iknow how its like to have insomnia, forcing myself and and cry for goodness sake. the medicne isnt working for me though, what kind of drowsy effect i have. im tired.. but my mind isnt stopping..

Fuck! i hate my job!!!

..............................................................................................

Impromptu-BE gathering..

it was suppose to be me meeting with cel for a dinner. we use to have that after both of us graduate, maybe like twice a year or so. but both of us had been really busy.. with schools and work.. we kinda drifted apart before this meet-up. and then she offer to call darren and Alex out, and since i thought the gangs are out, why not bringing in more? and i ask the rest except for parrot-_- which turn out to be pretty interesting. the same people that we had so much fun then.

the guys.

and the girls, which also include melona who left for some movie after.

and not forgetting the empty cups..

.............................................................................................................
Our Christmas lunch with collegues starts with a firedrill, with us being so serious, bringing our bags down. but e were leaving for Region Hotel for Italian buffet.

my wonderful collegues.

and i met up with fenfen for a short shopping. girls talk.. and hen home..

disappointed..

2009-12-13T06:03:00.000-08:00

when dearest told me he had be offer a place in UWA, i was half crying and half happy about it. well i was OT-ing then. but to end this enthusiaum short. he had to reject this offer. and rejecting it means he had to stay in his sucky job. i know dearest had be sad lately.. giving up this master is a very hard decision which he had to decide it this weekend.

so it happen:
it was like September, he had enquired about this master course with UWA and the professor was asking him to register it first.($200 registration fee) so, we chance upon a free registration for OZ schools on October. Last Tuesday, UWA called, interviewed him, told him if he got an email from them, it means he have been accepted. and then, he got accepted!. i think it's not easy to be offer a place because this course last 2 years, and every two year, there will be a new batch of 20 students. and out of 20 students, they accept 15% overseas students. dearest should be lucky in a way but.. the scholarship from SGH failed, and there is no way he can afford this course. its like 30k oz per year.. convert it, it would be like 80k for the 2 year excluding the expenses. sigh... I hope some kind hearted soul would help sponsor his school fees.. but he just emailed them-rejcting the offer.

his parents wasn't supportive unlike my parents, they were telling me, if he could, he should go, take a loan and get thru this 2 years. is like buying a 80k car, the only thing is 80k would bring you to a cert but a car can only last you for 10 years. a better investment though.

well, i had try to change his mind, but there is no way he could part this 80k(from gods no where it would drop down) and then start all over again.

i know dearest is having a hard time right now.. seeing him feeling so lost about what he can do.. and how he is stuck in a sucky working environment. i hope i could help him somehow.. but... i just hate what god is giving him right now..(maybe i shouldn blame god)

2 months of hoping that he could finally change his path.. but 2days to realise he is still at the same spot..

TMD!

im not involved=(

2009-12-05T23:16:00.000-08:00

The family is having a short gateaway and sadly, i'm not involved. the usual genting once a year should be over for me. seriously, working has alot of restricton. especially those impromptu travelling the family suddenly organise. The worst part is, the family is taking the vehicle away and i would be stuck taking the bus early morning.. I wonder if i could wake up on time. im thnking of staying over at bran's for the 5 workign day.. hehe, he could drive me to work.. lets see how..

travel.

was looking at some stuff in my cardboard and i realized my last year birthday present from dearest was still wrapped and kept away nicely in the box. So, i decided to take out and snap a few shots before stuffing it in my cardboard again. its too precious to be expose.don't want it to be stack with dust. oh and a few of other stuff i bought in Orlando last year December. its already almost a year when i celebrated a really specially and fantastic Christmas. the feeling is just 'too overwhelming' and i can't wait to go back to Orlando again. beautiful people, amazing atmosphere.. -indescribably.

dearest hand-made this for me last year. so sweet of him. and his mum help in wrapping the present. he sux with papers. and an aeroplane, which i have yet to fixed it. i need a proper pen knife though.

i bought a lot of souvenirs while traveling and its usually stuck in my cardboard after im back from whereever the place is. and now, i seems to stack alot of stuff and i wonder if my room's slab would ever take it.(i share a room with my sis) it always occured to me if the slabs would ever let go and fall to the 19th floor while im asleep. travelling makes me happy, makes my heart lighten, lft my spirits, makes me feel another type of reality in the world. sometimes, people just tend to think of issues surrounding themself, but they never get to see the real big picture of the world to realise, we're actually a small issues within a big colony of human beings.

a must-ride in Disneyland.

dumbo!!

Lets talk about some issues that happen during a few of my first interviews after graduating in UOL. Some Mnc Co. has gave me an opportunity to be interview and i screwed it real hard. Infact, i got told off because i was too truthful about my goals in the near future. its not like i can read the butch's mind though. ok she is kinda nice, telling me what went wrong for the interview and what employers might expect and i was really disappointed about myself for being such a bad liar or an unprepared interviewee or rather a loser in an interview. i was so disappointed and i cried infront of brandon..its like, its the biggest setback to me then...how silly.

humans around are all different. but we tend to make them change in order to suit our demands and needs in what we want to see them. and so, travelling is realy different! it makes us see the difference in how each of us are who we are in and out. we can see how pple bribe to get on their ways in vietnam. how courteous a waitress is to get tips from us. How friendly are some different colour skins in many part of the world. and then, it all comes down to, its just a small issue to myself if we tend to look at the bigger picture.

Lately, or rather fort-nightly, hehe, i have been talking about my future with him. theres so much things occuring about money that i had a hard time assuring him. i felt guilty sometimes when i tend to think that i would prefer a rich man and then i wont have to worry about monetary issues. its quite sad because if anyone would have know me long enough, my goal in life is to travel around the world..(it also means i need aot of money for that) travelling is like the only interest that perks my emotions and making me stronger and forward looking for any craps in life i have gone true(you know? its like escapade?)-in a good way. like recently, i send a guy friend home, and during our journey back to his place, we were talking about countries we had explore and yearning for another place soon. and people tend to think that you're rich because you got to travel this place and that place. but seriously?! what i have spend for the past many years to save up a trip? if a commoner can give up spending in their car, or shopping less branded goods and have that passion to travel, he or she could do the same too?! not many people are lucky to be an air stewardess to travel, or having biz trips , or even being sponsor. I! need to fork out a large amount to do what i like. but recently, i have to freeze all this thoughts because of my future with brandon. im really worry.. and sad too.. but i hope i could physco him for another cheaper trip..

who can sponsor me for my travelling.....................

Teambonding with Manila Team.

2009-11-26T17:03:00.000-08:00

my department had a team-bonding with the Manila's Team while they were here for a short know-us session. A good way to know who im communicating while querying some issues with the Manila people. they are quite a nice bunch of young peeps. cam-whoring like nobody business.

Team-bonding means having half day at work, and half day doing something else. so the program was to go for bowling to know our people well. im no good in bowling, my balls doesnt roll straight. TMD. wadever la. and after bowling, we went to their apartment for buffet dinner while celebrating some november children's birthday.

2009-10-26T06:27:00.000-07:00

Mummy's birthday.
We had fish and co in IMM. and i can conclude after several dinning, their standard had drop. after this simple meal, i went to meet dearest, but i was already feeling unwell, and dehydrated. went to his place to rest and realise the flu doesnt stop. in the end, i had to finish this lemon flu drink that dearest bought for his flu weeks ago. and i hate it. yucks.. i would rather pop panadols and be done with it.

I HATE FLU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

attended jennifer's wedding last sat 17th Oct. She is the last person that i would think of to settle down this soon. and im really glad she did.

I met jennifer in my secondary school. those were the days we had big oval shaped glasses and she had side burns that she pull down from her hair behind. she is always cheerful and happy. we chatted on the phone like couple, gossip and stay back late in school for 'i don know what the heck' and we were once 'best' friends. but we got distant after we went up to express and she got back with her primary school best friend. thats why i had always felt the word 'friends' had actually been quite hard to stay on in my life - forever.

and then, i never believe in best friends. i always think that life is fair, u have so much of something, you wont get so much of another. i admit i had a wonderful family, my parents, siblings, grandparent, cousins.. and recently, i made Brandon part of my family as well.. i mean, i bring him to my family gatherings and that's what i always want to do to my other half, to show him my family.not just the other way round.

maybe one day, i would get tired and realise that i don't have much friends around anymore.

settling down seems such a long way to me. but it has been in my mind for awhile, after i met dearest that is.
i never felt so attached to a person who would give in to you like you to him and it really feels great to be treated fairly.
i always ask him why it is me and not others but surely, i don't get any answers from him.

Life is fair afterall... for awhile..

2009-10-17T20:33:00.000-07:00

as i grow older, i realised the need-nots of many friends around my special day. that few that remember and still make an effort to go out for a nice dinner is enough.

and on my special day, i wasn't as much unhappy as before because of that few peoples well wishes or the 1 week celebration i use to feel like having. in-fact, im contented with brandon being around me, and a few friends that still come out to dine with me.

my ex-collegue, Aen was replaced by Xinkai, hehe.

my pretty collegues

my birthday present from xinkai and enviro-girls

blocking the wind for the candle

i had a bad butt that day, went to the doc to get an mc, but i ended up walking like a preggy. i had so much pain walking , taking the stairs. and the only thing i can do is sit and lie on the bed.
but all the pain doesnt stop me from hanging out with my friends.hehe..

after dinner at liang court, we drove down dempsey for some hot drinks. no more alcohol for awhile.

sat was resting day(for my butt that is) and on sunday, i made burgers for my birthday picnic. i love picnic! im looking at some picnic basket online.. and they aint cheap. but hope to get one soon, something i can stuff wine bottles

sadly on sunday, i was in medication and dearest say no wine if on medication.. and ended up we have to keep the sweet wine for maybe.. christmas

i love cherry tomatoes. and it has lots of vitamin C-sssss

this book is good.. others by him are good as well..

dearest caught a crayfish.. hehe but we release it.. and we were thinking of releasing those we kept in his house as well.. i think they need the freedom..

lastly, dearest got me this for my present. haha, i think he had a hard time choosing those charms. but its all so lovely. love it to bits.

2009-09-29T06:59:00.001-07:00

one month later...

im still ALIVE!! working and ot-ing for month end closing..and for this one month, i had 2 free dinner, one finance gathering at some condo, one month end lunch and one free buffet lunch cos big shots decided their meeting should be in some expensive hotel resturant. nvm.. free food is good. and their buffet got 'standard ' one.

our fav ba-cho-mee lunch, but because its their last day, they had the

my 2 khaki that lunch with me for a month before they left for EY. now im with some random pple and sometimes dearest would lunch with me.. i like!

and this one month, my unipoks celebrated sebby's birthday in Suntec's Boshi. i remember the last time i went there was with Thomas(archi), treat me dinner. anyway, i have very few close uni frens, so its good that all turn up for this special day, all give sebby face sia. if i ask them randomly for dinner, i think they would not be as spontaneous. haha. i like seeing them, cos they share the same working brain as me, and we would talk about our injustice or un-satisfaction in what we are doing at work oh and some other random stuff la..
its the libra air now... and i can feel dearest surprises. hahaha no lah, we have decided nothing for my special day. maybe i will surprise him and get him something instead.. teehee

during the hari raya holiday, my sec sch frens and i went wine arcade for wine and some finger food.. the chicken wings, spinach pizza and the cheese suasage..they are delicious. although i love wine.. i still get tipsy drinking them.. and that day cab, is like free.. i have to wait for half an hour for a cab in queenstown.. gosh.. by the time i reach home, i just want to sleep. haha

the other day, it was my pay day, and i treat dearest our fav japanese food in sakae sushi, although its not those ex ex place but we try those dishes that we never try before. so its quite special in a way. and then dearest feel like drinking, so i brought him to helipad for some 1 for 1 drinks. and for myself, i stick with mocktails so that i can drive the sleepy boy home. and i force him to shower before heading to bed.
The next day, my family went to Tan's clan to celebrate moon cake festival. its a one year one time buffet. for the usual lucky draw, we manage to carry the 9th prize away- dvd player. how lucky. then dearest brought me to fen's place at ECP to collect hamster for his student.. i so wanted to bring home those little creatures to dearest house since i know i cant have animals in my place. i already thought of names if i have those creatures.. the boy would be call narbnarb and the girl will be firefly...er... not bad lah hoh..

now everyone around me are working. hope they are surviving well in work or in school.

last but not least, a pic of my sis grad pic..

2009-09-09T05:34:00.000-07:00

today is 090909.. hmm i dont know i feel so excited about it.. its really nothing much.. its not a special day for me either.. but somehow.. it just mark a history.. and i m glad i get to see 090909...
i had lunch wth jiapei, and seeing someone familiar and close makes me feel like myself.. its not that im fake in my company.. im just not close and use to everything yet.. the culture the people.. so it s good to lay low alittle first.. oh well.. wait till they get to know the craziness of me. but it won't happen so soon la.. afterall, you got to be professional inside out, no more play play student already.. no more the as-and-when atitude.

anyway, i was so enthu about today, 0909090909 and i was harping it to my neighbour (colleague sitting beside me), he keep asking if i'm getting married today.. haha.. nah.. i wish la.. but no.. and when i miss 9:09am, i was like, eh missed!!! and he look at me like-_-.. work is boring la, i need to make some excitement out of everything i can see..

oh well.. life is really mundane everyday.. i slept at 9pm yesterday.. haha.. tired after work.. and i don't feel like doing anything..

its really a random post. nothing much happen and im quite bored with what is going on..

the result

2009-09-04T10:45:00.000-07:00

Haven’t been blogging..although i have 2 months of nua-ing, its like never enough when u finally have a job soon. Then you realise, you haven’t packed that pile of rubbish on the table, you haven’t had enough of waking up at 1100am sometime and 9am the next day, or surfing the internet the whole day, or watching programs one after another. Or Packing the room, but never did. And then poof! One interview and then you have to start work soon. The thing is, you have a short time to think about having a job that pays like a diploma holder. I really hope these 6 months would be a good one, gaining all the experience i can and maybe leave and find a higher pay job.

I’m gonna miss having lunch with dearest and spending enough time with my dad since he worked at night and i dislike that kinda distant. And my company requires alot of OT. im half looking forward to it and half not. You just don’t want any changes in your life. Doing the same old mundane errand.

ok its been a week already. i'm still not use to it. not use to having finance people around me, not use to excel-ling and looking at people's expenses. i wish i have some good colleagues to keep me company, becos those that i'm close with are leaving this month to 'big 4' and poor me have to be alone.. oh well...

well.. in a hapier note, i have finally graduated.. congrat to me huh!? don't have to.. i don like my result.. i'm not please about it.. and, i don't wanna talk about it.. graduate is nothing fantastic cos my result is totally shit.. i havent been happy about it and poor dearest have to listen to my complains, me yanking about how inferior i am in my co. how lousy my result is compare to my friends... so yea.. finally, my 3 years in school is finally over. i'm holding a degree cert.. but so what? and i realise its just another paper.. sigh..

some pictures of the times i have during the so-call-holiday.

........

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAREST!!!

& 1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY TOO!!!

Dearest and i had completed our first year loving each other as much as we can. hehe.. goosebumpy.. but seriously, its not an easy year for both of us. i had a wonderful year being love like i would love to, to be dote and cared for, the concern that i've got, its indescribable. the coincidence part about both of us is, we might had met each other since when we were kids, kids as small as 5 years old i think and he would be ten, and maybe we shared the same playground in clementi and made alot of noise playing catching. or i had heard those music played from the piano by him and i cant wait to play the same tune too.. we would buy different sweets from the same uncle in the point block or taking the same lift reaching the same floor.. perhaps we had noticed each other but in a very different angle.

This , isnt this Serendipity?

we would know what each other are thinking and sometimes, its really creepy becos we could read each others mind too. we will say the same words in unison and had the same idea of what to do next. he is like a part of me, knowing almost everything in the world and myself knowing little things in the world. he would be the guy that know nuts about finance and i would be learning more about it. he would cook and i would wash the dishes. he sleeps in the bottom bed and i sleep on the top bed. i watch channel u and he look at the the tv frowning. he dislike computer and i like surfing the net. he make music like fairytale and i listen to them carefully. he read my school notes and i made them stuck into my head. i would catch the crayfish and he would wait for the fish. i would disturb him and he would look pity. we would order plenty of food and finish them all up and clean(no wastage). he love to help the unfortunate and i would listen to his stories. we made plans and hope that it will come thru.

Thats us for the one year we had. not very happening, but fantasy.. i live dreaming and he live being a silly. maybe thats how we could click in a very special way.

i love you Dearest Tan

a long day.

2009-08-04T22:41:00.000-07:00

i'm a little lobster now. reddish all over. argh. and all thanks to meeting wesley and xinyi to chill in Cafe Del ma(im so not into it becos of the blasting sun). and i dislike being so red and then brown after that. i think i need to apply gaogao of whitening.

But for the first time, wesley actually waited for us in Harbour Front MRTlike for almost 20mins!. haha and although he was late, we were later. hehe. we had lunch first before sentosa.
So many angmos were there. So the 3 of us socked in the pool for quite awhile before chating on the beach chair for an hour or so before dumping ourself into the pool again. it was very hot that day and i know i will definitely turn very red and in pain for the next 3 days. hmm although the weather was bad for myself, it was definitely good for wesley la. i wonder why man likes to be so dark and dirty. how i wish dearest would not have such dark colour skin.. my poor boy. and wesley still got the chick to say he wanted to be a construction worker but too bad he is meant to be a designer..-_- i wanna tie him in the site for at least 5 hours...lets see how black he can turn. nah.kidding..

Havent been meeting Wesley for awhile, and he treated us drinks, lunch and dinner.. haha.. so seldom right? He say its becos i send him home quite a few times and that's his return for me. haha.
oh and after bathing, this ang mo lady came in with a bottle of beer and wine cup and while she was washing her hands and myself applying a gaogao of body lotion, this lady (pretty) turn to me and say, 'you pretty' and im like huh? haha thank you, and then she was telling me that American man love asian woman and they don like american woman and keep saying im pretty. xinyi was looking at me and think she might have some other meaning in her words.. and i think she got dump or drunk.. gosh..

But when we reach Vivo, wesley the blur guy realise he forgot his credit card and we went back again to retrieve it before LJS in vivo.

the sugar cane with a layer of bundung, creativity by miss lee. haha

i wonder when will it be for our next meet up.. but i know it would be either end of the year or the next year..

i love this pic.. its so candid. they were like chating somethings and then suddenly both of them just drink(below pic)

wes wanted not to take us but the angmos at the back.

2009-07-27T09:51:00.000-07:00

oh wow!, its next weekend already. time flies.. and then july would be gone.. and then i realise i have been staying home for sucha long time..

weekdays are like trying to do up my resumes, and sending out application seems like a hassle cos it take a dink hour to just send one resume. its really time consuming. and now i know why its hard to get a job now. ok.. im not rushing.. i'm not, im taking my own sweet time..but i realise i needa get one before my results comes out.

ok, back to the weekend.. what have i done..?
met up with my fraternal sides cousins. one just came back from his interns in Denmark or something for hald a year and we decided to go for some tea. hmm i drove them there though.. had to squeeze 5 adult rascals. not easy..
and then in the late afternoon, i took a bus down to meet dearest. seldom had to take a bus down to meet him but becos he is doing up his curtains, i shall not disturb him la..
dearest brought me down to tampinese one(first time) and was checking out wad the hoohaas is all about. and then.. theres nothing much to fancy actually. then we bring ourself to pasir ris to see the fishing area.. the fish one malay caught is big. kinda worth it if u catch like 2 to 3 that night. but i think its not easy..

Sunday.
slep late cos dearest and i ended staying up the whole night playing plants vs zombies. and myself was watching finding nemo abit.. we woke up for lunch, chicken rice at somewhere north. and upper pierce reservoir to catch crayfish.. hehe its fun.!

the little monster!!!

we caught 10 of them!!! haha and we even caught the smally ones. so small lke babies.. and they are all nesting int heir new home in dearest's room.. hopefully they dont crawl out.. they are really good in escaping. one actually cling its way out from the styroform box and luckly dearest saw it and manage to stop it in time. it was actually on the ground, making his way back to the sea.. poor thing.. anyway, these little ones can be eaten, but dearest and i are not keen to consume them yet..

i have new pets!!! 10 someone... will name them one day, and hopefully they don eat each other up..

till nex weekend!

another saturday

2009-07-18T23:58:00.000-07:00

it was daddy's birthday, and my family and i went to some jap buffet for lunch. (come to think of it, i only had one meal that day) the buffet starts at 230 and we were kinda early so we went to the NTU plague to take some photos, my intention was to try out the camera though. i didn had a chance to play with it.

thats my happy family

we wont trying to pose..

the two greedy poke!

the happy birthday dad

went down Marina Shopping centre to meet dearest after lunch, he was with his fren for some audio fair thing. then we walk to suntec to look at the achade. and he ended up playind some shooting down sharks game. i wanna show dearest the achade in Bugis, so we walked down there and im stuck again.. spending $50 for catching the plushy thing. im so addicted to it! caught the four baby mickey and frens and the lucky prize is a brown minnie mouse.. not bad. oh and some sweets as well. i like that instant kick it gives me. making me feel excited and happy.

baby mickey and friends.

for the $50, i promise dearest to play pool with him. its like i don know since when i ever touch a pool stick. im not good at it at all and im not keen to play it since like poly year 2? but im fine playing with dearest cos nobody would see how ugly i look when i pay pool. sometimes, its the poise., but i can never get that pro poise that some girls get. anyway we ended up playing like 7 games and i won non...-_-

we slept late and woke up late and sleep again after lunch.. gosh.. i think im too old for over nights. i prefer beauty sleeps. anyway, i was late for my friend's daughter one month buffet. and when i got there, everyone are leaving. oh well..

thats us without the baby girl.

dearest came to pick me after and dinner and home..

till next weekend.....

2009-07-17T00:05:00.000-07:00

Weichi's new born girl jovene.. so cute..

2009-07-13T10:40:00.000-07:00

Wednesday
i was inda excited on what to do after work and so i was telling gabriel i wanna go prawning and he was like ok and whenand i told him later. and he was like huh! haha so rush.. oh well. thats me la.. then i ask him to ask bran for me.. hehe im kinda scared to ask bran actually becos he know jolly well he had a hard time rejecting what i like to do. and im quite scared to asked him too.. scared he is tired.. anyway we ended up going to the birdpark one at 930 with venessa and gabriel.

i was teaching venessa how the prawns would react at the bottom of the pond while the two guys complain about the Company.. aiyah.. tats so much about the office. i think everyone is not very happy about it. including me.. manage to catch like 4. they didn refill the prawn at all.. anw. birdpark prawning is a nono. if its not becos its near pur place, i would not have gone there..

Saturday

this Saturday, we finally did something i wanna do for a long time.. we went fishing!!! actually its just jigging but im more then excited about it. i woke up at 715 and take a bus down to dearest place and he the little pig, was still sleeping.. anw, he was kinda relunctant to go fshing with me cos he need to check his rod which was rotting for more then 3 years on the shelve.after which,we went to get some sea worms and more jigs.

Bedok jetty was filled with people. the weather was quite fair that day until the late afternoon. i realise that fishing makes your hand strong, and fishing makes sun burnt in odd places... grrrr.. the weather was really good, very windy but then, it start to rain and we were so far away from shelter and we ended up strolling cos we were too tired to run. but luckier it was almost dinner time, so we washed up, packed and head down changi village for zi-cha.. yummy i like the zi cha there. alot and fresh and very yummy. after dinner, we walked abit in the flea market and went down pasir ris for prawning.. i think i had a fair catch that day. it was good for me la, in the first 15mins , we caught like 5 already, but nothing for the rest of the 1 hour..oh well...the prawn that day was small too.. irritating, keep swimming away with my food.

i hooked this fish in the eye.. gosh.. but we release him after that.

Sunday

Dearest and i head down for my sis birthday lunch at Jack's place.the standard kinda drop though.

Monday: the sister's NIE convocation.
finally, after 4 years of seeing her sleeping late at night, she is now a second upp graduate. im really glad her struggling days in school are over.. when will mine be?
Looking at her friends and her getting a stable job makes me wonder if im wasting my life now. i mean, im not really eager to find a spot in the society, i havent even prepare my resume at all and i was still thinking of heading oversea again with dearest for his birthday this coming August. my mum was saying if i have the money, the truth is, i have it, but theres one trip im saving up for at the end of the year and i wonder if i can even afford if im going to repeat another year in school. but still, its dearest special year so i think im gonna make it memorable somehow. and a trip seems to be a good idea..

back to the convocation, my parents were there and my mum was yawning throughout te whole speech by the minister. she cant understand what those big shots were talking and me? i was trialing my camera, hoping to get a good shot for the very far away seat i was at. but there was one speech from Benjamin that makes me almost teared and worth paying attention to. Now i know why he is good. and his speech do makes a big impact for the new batch of teachers out there.
there will be another convocation for my sis as an NTU graduate. it would be the big one and the final one before she leave her school with head high. seriously, the feeling of graduating with your friends is really good.. mine? nah.. we graduate different years.

2009-07-01T23:34:00.000-07:00

my trip was great. The company, the lovely weather, beautiful people and our little arguments here and there. It's an experience not to be missed. We had to compromise on our decisions.. im glad we made an effort to allow this trip to happen. its not as easy as buying the cheapo flight tix and thats it. i had my exams then and he had a load of stress going on with his work. we didnt plan a single thing at all.. and we did it like 1 week before we flew. everythng was uh-hmm, planned by me! and i wasnt happy about it.

the road trip, the accommodations, the attractions to go. its actually easy planning, but im greedy, i wanna cover most places in this 9days in oz. oh well, but it didnt much work out anyway..its the time though, and we both slept like pigs and only got to do most stuff almost in the late morning. and everythng closes and it turn dark by 5pm. so we only had the rest of the night shopping in the super market, cooking, watching their local shows and sleep.

daddy brought us to the airport at about 3plus. our first trip out to a cold cold country.

the aunt came to picked us up from the airport and we went back to her place. two dogs greeted us. i love both chubb and jess. they are so lovely. and check out the 5 budgy that the aunt wants bran to being home..they are a noiy bunch. i think theres only 1 male inside. we had normal oz breakfast- salad and hams, bread and tea. tea with honey.. its yummy! and we have that everyday.

we spend the 2nd day resting, sleeping quite uncomfortably becos its cold and im not use to it yet. and spending our time in the neighborhood at Gosnells. and we went to buy some persimmons and kiwi in the farm. sweet crunchy ones. love

so thats for the first day..

lucy the dog came running down from the hill and the seller had to tie her up. she is sucha hyper dog. cheerful and excited. and her fur is so soft.. must be the good weather in Perth.

at night, the aunt drove us down to Logan place, oh yea. Logan, we met him in the plane and he was chatting with bran non stop while i try to sleep. Logan is an african but had his citizen in Perth. and we were discussing how we could stay there one day in the near future. well this is me and brans plan. and i hope it would work out. the family are nice people, the mum's cooking is good. some african food i never try before. although they were having vegetarian that day. noodles with some african snacks makes the cold night warm.

i was playing ds with the daughter and bran was playing the guitar and chatting with the adults. Logan even invited us to go fishing in the weekend. and i was so enthu about it, until that day. grrr.. i have never fish a salmon or crab before!! but the thought of it its just a thought...

thoughts: the night was cold, the road was dark.. and i wasnt wearing warm enough. but it was the peace that makes me love perth like i love orlando. its family and home, its the home cook dinner and the dogs rubbing against your leg that keeps the night warm.. i love here

DAY 2

the aunt brought us to No Birds to collect our rented car. so its recommended to get it from no birds then hertz if ur in oz. cos the GPS is cheap and the rental is cheap as well..

our journey down south was fill with tinny arguments and views.. lovely scenic views- the sun, greenish brown grass, autumn trees, blue sky, stretch of sleeping grape trees and clear sea water. 2 hours drive down to Bunbury-an expensive town just right beside the sea- south of Perth. after checking in to the motel with 5 beds!! duh! we head down to their beautiful town and the sea side. i like the lighthouse. checkards of black and white.

lovely coast

our rented car and motel

tats dearest and me in the very beautiful beach at Bunbury

me wearing like 4 thin layers of clothes. its very cold..

winter trees.

thats me in their town. kinda quiet though.. must be going home time..

their bus station. its pretty there. very old school with benches

walked around abit and found coles. and coles means dinner and breakfast

carrying dinner at breakfast at 6pm. shops are all close at 5pm. and the street is almost quiet.

our first dinner out. and the chicken is yummy. and its only au$5 +. if u wn good price for ur chicken, u got to wait till like 6plus and some cooked food will be slashed up to 50%.
and we had some raw vege which is really tasty and fresh. i think i will get fat staying there...

ECP

2009-06-08T08:29:00.000-07:00

blading with my uni-jiemeis in ECP on Saturday. the first time with sebby and jiapei. it was tiring though, havent wear that shoe for almost a year, but i love how the wind blew my whole body with salty breeze.

sadly, dearest didnt tag along this time cos of his work..

took a train down to meet jiapei and derick, oh yea, it was suppose to be a picnic day but due to everyone needing to leave after half a day, i suggested to just go blading.no need to waste time preparing food and ended up clearing stuff at 4pm. so sian.. so our day goes off eating at..

the usual place we ate and the first time i brought dearest to meet my friends.

the couple-lesby and zijian

Jp and Lesby

the 'look-like-for-sick-people-to-eat' noodle

after which, we met up with fenfen(i miss her so much!!)like i wish she could be swarming in school sometimes, but she graduated la.

sebby our jiemei

lesby and JP with the various drink sizes

that day was really hot, scorching hot! and we apply sun block like nobody business. sebby join us a little later and derick wasnt feeling well at all, and he sat under some shady area while we blade to bedok jetty. and jp havent blade for awhile, so she got alittle unwell after blading for the first 10mins. but she still completed the whole route. salute!!

bedok jetty as usual was fill with people. and im going there too one day, to use my new bait to catch smally fishes.

this is mu-ie, denise bf's new pup. now she lloks like sun wu kong and the many shredding furs
denise came later with the bf and pup. and then me, lesby and denise went down dog run since everyone is leaving for their next appointment.
went down Lesby's boy place to picked mocha to the dog run and he is such a guai boy. and then his brother brought xiao bai along too, to accompany mocha. so cute la both the big dog.

in the middle, mocha is hiding from the two big dogs

after this, dearest came over from tuas to pick me up for dinner. we were suppose to go changi village for zi cha but the zicha boy say we have to wait for an hour for our food and we were like lets try the nonya food we miss the other day. we were so lucky cos there wasnt much crowd that day. i have to let dearest try this stall cos its open by my aunt's cousin and both of us love nonya food. he needs to tell me if its authentic enough since he grew up eating them.

walked abit and swing abit in changi beach before heading to the pasir ris shopping centre to achade abit. hehe.. i think im abit addicted to catching soft toys.

home.. tired tired day..

i hate may and i hate exam

2009-05-28T01:36:00.001-07:00

tmr is the last paper and im already in my holiday mood.. nah.. i had the toughest fight in may. and its so hilarious that im actually fighting with a non living thing call exams and not some worthy dovey thing. i had to go to the doc because my heart ran as fast as a bullet train. i got myself into the world of my own, and i cry every single day in may without fail. tmd! and i need to eat medicine because of all this nonsence.. its really tmd because i feel like the lousiest girl in uol. i panick the slightest bit. i puked air, not eating, sleep like not sleeping and dread every single day and i hate night, cos its like i realise i havent study enough for the day at all.

but im so happy, so happy because even for the shittest month i have, i found love in my home and in my dearest. i hugged my mummy every time i cry and she comfort me with the 'just try your best ' line. yea, its really about the support i get from them. like my dad always say, 'aiyah its not the first time your being paranoid over exams, u get this everytime u have exam, stomachache headache, leg pain, whatever pain i can feel in my body, i think its very painful. i told dearest im really lousy because its jus an exam and to me its like im having some illness for the rest of my life. oh well, i still don get it why i feel this way because its the feeling like everyone walking around u are non-existence. and daddy say, 'fail then take next year loh, don spoilt your body because of this' and tadah! i felt awake and comfort. they never once pressured me in anything i do. 'i love them!!!

and dearest.. i owed him the most. and i guess i have to paid it up to him for my life now. he had been the only mountain i can lean on, giving me the best i could get.. when nobody is there for me, he appeared. he spend every single night revising law with me, read my notes, explain them into simple english, make sure i remember the impt points, asked his dad for abit of pointers. and do my MA question. imagine he had never read my notes before and he can even do decision making for me.. and read my audit notes. spot question for me and all came out right. im so glad i had him. for now, im very worried about his health because his ah gong is in the hospital, and his current work sux and he still had to calm me down. im so scared he is going to fall down soon..

its so nice when u found out who your friends are, to comfort u, tell u everything is alright. like sebby always say 'ni ke yi de la' 4 weeks after today and you'r in 'perth' or like, not everyone are good at what they do, but we still have to finish what we started so just bear with it. and the' dont think too much of failing'..its when u see who your friends really are when ur at the end of the road.

i hope my paranoid are going away soon, because i can feel them leaving me. im glad lah, they sux in my life... they should leave and never come back.

just had audit this morning and i havent nap yet, and gugu is treating us dinner at one degree 15 for dinner.. i wonder if i should go without napping.., or if i should stay home becos i got last paper tmr.. but today is 'duan wu jie' hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm..

im going to nap now..

10 things that accompany me thru revision..

2009-05-01T21:49:00.000-07:00

counting down to 10days to my first paper.. it would be a long week ahead and its like i cant wait to finish all this ordeals or im just so happy about getting out to work and slogged for the **** co.. anyway im more enthu about what im going to do right after exams..

dearest has been there for me every single day- monday tuesday, wednesday, thurs, fri, sat and sunday.YES! every single day, accompany me revising for my work and me as usual, distressing by disturbing him. hehe. dearest has been a great help, reading my notes and explaining every single shit i dont understand, he even jot down impt notes for me. but im feeling real bad about him doing nothing sitting beside me other than to read my borrrriiiing notes. and some times, i get a little distracted during the weekends and i just wanna go out and play, like its the only day i get to see him all day.

so the 10 wonders that kept me high during self studying...

puffy with very short tail

little puffy looking at the lens

his fluffy feathers

after bathing..

having her lunch after bathing.

1) little puffy olive- dad caught this birdie flying in my house and she is such a baby, i brought it to dearest house so her mum can look after it. she is like the cutest bird i ever seen though, other then love birds. she has short tails, and still carry baby feathers, so we think she is just a girl, not ready to be a mummy yet.

dearest and i spend quite some time reading about this little species. its breed is an olive-backed sunbird, she constanly gets hungry because she only drink nectar and sometimes, spiders for nutrient, But we don't have flower, so sugar water is the only resource. she is quite fussy with her sugar water, dearest went to the bird shop to get her some baby bird nutrient where we mixed it with the sugar water, but she refuse to drink more after tasting it. waolao.. hard to please. so we were wondering if we should invest in the expensive vetafarm nectar.

Olive-backed Sunbird is very bold and often builds nests close to and even in human habitation. she has what is considered an unpleasant song and are tricky to keep alive (and she chirps every 2 seconds. )(rough metallic chirps cheep-cheep-wheet; also a high-pitched rising chee). she is really noisy other then when she curls up and sleep like a log. oh and because she constantly puffs up, dearest mummy called her puffy. 'puffy quiet!', ' puffy food!'.. oh well..

2) lush 99.5 have been keeping me company for day and some nights. its really soothing to listen to songs that makes you unwind and think about stuff. but for me, listening it motivates me..

3) dearest got me all the healthy tablets bottles and some, i have never seen before.. gingko, chicken essence, chewable vitamins, collagens, calcium.. im going to be so healthy la and he makes sure im not around crowded places in town..cos im not in the period to fall sick and im constantly making sure im well enough everyday, sleeping the usual 10hours a day, unless i suddenly feel gan chiong over managerial econs in the middle of the night. anw, i wont be in town for the next 30days..

4) this june trip has been running around my head for the last 1 month and its mentally killing me.. i wanna be there right now!!!! well, dearest say if im gonna pass every single subject, he will pay the full expense for me in this trip. but i doubt it would happen. lets just be caution about some things that hasnt happen yet. and im not gonna pin too much hope on it. and the last thing to even happen is to cancel the trip because of swine flu.. doubly fingers cross.

5) my favourite band with all their 'spacey' songs in my mp3 to keep me going. i just love them to bits. its such a waste when they were here in sg, i was actually in their country..grrr..

6) bejeweled blitz is too addictive. im trying to keep a distance away from computer cos, if its online, its bejeweled,. and bejeweled can last for more than an hour when each game is only 1
minute...

7) how can i not live without food!!! i got utmost hungry every single hour!!! its like the brain eating all the brain juice and left with non for my other parts of my body.. and i have to eat somemore...

(i know this are not food pictures)

8) my G10. i snap ugly pictures when i got alittle too tired from study.. snap snap snap!

9)plants and zombie is fun !!!

10) last but not least, my two very hard working khakis- sebby and JP

......................................................................

Random

first paper with numerous P=MC, MR=MC, MPL/MPK.......

the messy table- so hard working right?

matching shoes..(whos who??)

some saturdays back, when i crave for basketball ramen.. and tadah!! the tamago is yummy! and soup is fantastic.. and im hungry now..

dearest gav me flowers that doesnt wit 2days later.. cos he gave me a....POT of wild orchirds..

and some times back, while studying in nus as usual, we found a wet pigeon lost from its nest, dearest picked up and use the hand dryer to blow-dry the fella and then we find a perfect spot to hand made a nest for him. luxury lo! we use some twigs and leaves the cleaner put aside and build him this.. gosh.. i wonder where the pigeon fall off from.. and she-he looks tired..

not bad right? and dearest did the civil works while i... i only help to take pictures of his work. hehe..

happy mummy's day

..................................................................

on another note, sometime back in school, i met someone that plays a partial role in my life. i guess i wont be able to smile as freely to him as before. because i have learn to know things from a different angle. and its wrong to feel uneasy about it and yet you still got to put a smile on your face. it seem even more wrong to be someone nice because it is call polite. nah, i don need to be nice. its a sin to be nice to pple whom look at you in another form... but, on te hapir note, i met some old friends who have just finish their exams. and its good to hear them ask u out on a friday night..they still bother to keep you around them. but its so wrong to be out with them when your first paper is just 6 days later... so i have to do the ugly rejection which im very very relunctant..
how demoralising..

well thats about the long post. i think it gonna last for the whole May. till im ready to do some ranting..

im sad.

2009-04-13T08:40:00.000-07:00

have been feeling a bit aggy this few days or rather weeks.. nothing seem to turn out smoothly.. study doesnt seem productive as before. the drive seems to fail day by day, and im not abit as excited and scared for the exam as before..

IM NOT HAPPY!!!. im not happy of the way i live, not happy with my school, my almost negative bank balance, my unusual eatting habits.. the freaking many modules, the smelly shoes, the majong table with piles of unread notes, the bed i get to lie so not often as before, the shirt i wear repetitive and so it just goes on..

its so much of a mixed feeling and i feel so lost.. arghhh.. i don't even know what i'm saying. i think i just don't have an aim suddenly.. i cant focus with the things i want and need to do.

i wanted to help, yet i cant do much, i need advise but theres no one to look for..if theres only someone who can hear me talk..

see, i say im sad.. im frustrated.. why the hell do i have to go thru this.. &^%$#@!

sigh... i must be having the emo-ish days of the month.. i need to vent, need some harsh vocabulary to exert toxic out of me..

i need some calling....

weekend

2009-04-06T07:47:00.000-07:00

i had a busy weekend last week.. lesson covered almost half the day- 10-430pm. Audit lesson with sebby. paul and derick. . and..... i finally got a part of the mock paper. LOL! i pass 2 papers!

VDAY 2009

2009-02-16T04:35:00.000-08:00

its my first valentines day with dearest and we had our 6months anniversary 2 days back. sweet i would say. i spend our first vday at my secondary school's friend wedding for lunch. her husband whom i heard of since 7 to 8 years backs. how time flies.. Jiahui, a really good friend of mine. been in the same school, same class, same cca:band, and even sitting next to each other during band and lesson.. glad she is happily settled down.

and then we had late dinner again in a thai restaurant. we had to give Margarita a miss but i think we will go back there soon.they have one in Dempsey hill, but we are going to the Clementi one. dearest say they serve Mexican food. quite excited about it. dearest knows everything about food and he is always telling me about food this and that and bring me to nice places to eat. im glad someone actually eating random food like i do, no picky but enjoy tasty food around the globe.

we were suppose to cook our own dinner just so not to get slaughter by the peak period hooha. but both of us were so tired after working and attending the wedding. and it was too late to get the ingredients so we decided to eat out. the thai restaurant was right beside Margarita and there was not much people and by then it was already 9pm, so this dinner was just to satisfy our empty stomach.

after dinner, dearest actually brought me down to Dempsey hill for a drink but i decided on something else and so we drove back to the place i enjoy. swings in a cooling night.

so thats how i spend my first vday with dearest. nothing special but just having each other is enough.

HAPPY ST VALENTINES DAY MY FRIENDS.

happy Lunar New Year..

This Chinese new year seems to be quiet.. other then Allan, my cousin having his exchange in Nether land for half a year. there seems to be lesser gambler in the family. Lots didnt turn up in Mr Goh's house as before.. i guess this clique would grow smaller in a few years time.. oh well.. we all grow aint we? grow wiser, grow smarter, fatter, grow stronger, grow cycle of friends.. and also, starting to grow apart.. apart from how we belong to that once naive and happy girl.. that promise that was once made.. it seems to be fading away.. how i wish that the friendship we belong doesnt just vanish... those once in awhile sms.. it all seems to be be forgotten..

so i say, this year's cny, is indeed a quiet one.. sometimes.. quite emo-y

2009-01-19T07:44:00.000-08:00

Christmas 2008

2008-12-25T18:48:00.000-08:00

Merry Christmas!!

Christmas Eve in the office with dearest and colleagues. eat and lucky draw and presents from Mrs Tan(boss wife) and Sharon (secretary). and Gabriel and Xiumeng came. what a surprise! got to talk to them and introduce Brandon to them too. talked about everything and got xiumeng to read my palm again. 80% accuracy. Xiumeng privately read bran's too. hehe.. (My A-boy) and then for the lucky draw, we got to chose 2 draws since no one got the third price and haha. Gabriel got it and share his goody with us. how nice.

(isn't gabriel cute? hehe)

Christmas day was the simplest day ever. and i love it! had brunch with dearest in Liang court; some Japanese restaurant which serve delicious black pig meat. and then walked around and then tv, chips, ginger beer and goldie the bird flocking around the whole afternoon in his place.

family gathering at Daniel's place after. the house that i once stayed over, and celebrated my 12th birthday before they shifted to toh yi and then rent to some ang mo.

ok..Merry Christmas people.. after this , its time for some serious mugging cos exams dates are out!

6thDec 08.

day 1, 2 and 3

2008-12-05T20:14:00.000-08:00

5days-disney land
2days-universal studio
2days kennedy space centre
1/2 day- flea market and datona beach
2 days-rest and shopping
2days- travelling
1 day-chicago

Wee!!!! im safe and sound in Orlando, Florida. 24 hours flight is not very fun. i look like any other badies.. dark eye rings, heavy eye bags.. make-upless and very very tired.. long journey.. stopping over Tokyo for 1hr and then reach Washington 12hours later.. the weather was bad, and turbulence was heavy. for 1 hour, we are like having free roller coaster rides.. as if the whole plane is going to drop into the deep deep pacific sea..quite scary though. but exciting.

reach Orlando at 8pm, took our car from Hertz and then off to our 2 weeks home in Horizon Marriott. A cool suite with a proper kitchen, living area, balcony and 2 bed rooms with 3 kings size beds. weather was cooling. headed down Warmart to do some grocery shopping and then back home for a good sleep.

Day 2
its shopping time!! Orlando Prime outlets.. shop till drop.. spend $400plus usd in a day. how cool.
and then we explore abit on the road and get use to the left side driving. finish shopping at 11pm.. home sweet home..

Day 3
DisneyLand Animal Kingdom.

Mt Everest is the best and thrilled ride among all the rides.

there's so much to see feel, touch and smell, and all i could summarize in a whole for this day was awesome. Disneyland Orlando is a perfect place for young and old. and i would recommend anyone to go and experience it themselves one day. i mean Orlando one.not the LA or japan or the hong kong one.

theres so much to talk about! but i guess pictures will do the talking. and im lazy cos i have other days to fill in.. tata for day 3!

AVA is COMING TO TOWN!!!!!! ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH AND IM NOT IN SINGAPORE!!! my trip!!is such a wrong timing!!! i was telling dearest i may see them there.. sighhh im so so sad.

SHUCKS TO CORE laA!!!!!!
Dearest ask me when m i going away, and i told him 5th and he say he better not tell me, if not i will get upset over it. and i was like, who is coming to town?! BLink 182? linkin park? Aniki Jin? Who who!? and when i looked into his eyes,and ask..'Don't tell me it AVA? and true enough, i wish i wasnt away to farfar away.. AVA is coming on the 7th of December 2008. Dearest wanted to surprise me with the tickets but now he can't even help me at all..now the only hope i can get is that dearest would work in NUS that day or get himself a $100 ticket to watch them for me.. i had so much plan of getting their cds in my trip and now.. while im there.. they are gonna be here...no fate..

im so in love with AVA and i couldn't see them in singapore, this is so so wrong.. i just couldnt take it..big blow.. i wish i could see Tom DeLonge and now i have to give it a miss..
As you all know, Tom came from blink 182, and im BIGBIG FAN OF BLINK 182(punk rock).! and when they split up, i still love them all very much and when Tom form another band(Box Car Racer),and then AVA, their songs never fail me, rock, spacey, horizon alternative.. it jus make me feel really happy and emo listening to their songs..especially DeLonge's voice. hee..

Anyway, he is 33 this coming 13 december.. sigh x100.

The man who can't move

Going Back to the corner where I first saw you
Gonna camp in my sleeping bag I'm not gonna move
Got some words on cardboard, got your picture in my hand
saying, "if you see this girl can you tell her where I am"

Some people try to hand me money, they don't understand
I'm not broke I'm just a broken hearted man
I know it makes no sense but what else can I do
How can I move on when I'm still in love with you

Cause If one day you wake up and find your missing me
and your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I could be
Thinkin maybe you'll come back here to the place that we'd meet
And you'll see me waiting for you on our corner of the street
So I'm not moving, I'm not moving

Policeman says, "son you can't stay here"
I said, "there's someone I'm waiting for If it's a day, a month, a year"
Gotta stand my ground even if it rains or snows
If she changes her mind this is the first place she will go

Cause If one day you wake up and find your missing me
and your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I could be
Thinkin maybe you'll come back here to the place that we'd meet
And you'll see me waiting for you on our corner of the street
So I'm not moving, I'm not moving,
I'm not moving, I'm not moving

People talk about the guy that's waiting on a girl
There are no holes in his shoes but a big hole in his world

Maybe i'll get famous as the man who can't be moved
Maybe you wont mean to but you'll see me on the news
And you'll come running to the corner
cause you'll know it's just for you
Im the man who can't be moved

[Chorus X 2]

Going Back to the corner where I first saw you
Gonna camp in my sleeping bag I'm not gonna move

ME lesson yesterday was so tormenting. i sneeze half the time, and copied blindly what was shown on screen. i could feel the virus covering my body and i just needed a bed right then. Yang theng says he received an sms saying that theres is no HRM, hmm i wonder why i didnt received it. anyway, i head down Clementi polyclinic. waited for a long time and the doc jus precribe a flu medicine. argh!! time wasted to get a medicine that doesnt work on me..darn. Bran came over to company me and bring me home before he went back to the office to do some shitty report. it was already 6pm.. sigh.. i wished he could just go home and rest.. after soaking under the rain the whole morning.

sleep till 11am and dinner and medicine.. i just feel so restless.. so today is no working day.

Saturday cum Sunday.
Went prawning again with bran and tinny winny time with Lesby and her boy. caught a few prawns and some kind soul gave us their prawns. hoho.. reached home at 5plus am.. arghhh..must be the lack of sleep that cause all this flu..blek..

Mahjong!!!

Sat was Mahjong with Lesby, Jiapei and Sebby. and we brought along our accountant Derick and my driver dearest. hehehe.
Location: XXX condo.
Dearest picked us up for lunch (chicken rice at ghim moh) and then we headed down to my aunt's place to start our first mahjong session. yes Lesby has been barging us for a session and that is when i suggested a centralized place for us. cozy and quiet. Dearest heard that there was billiard table in the condo and his eyes went big! He went to play snooker alone for 2 hours.. hah cost only 6 bucks.
Mahjong ended around 5pm cuz everyone was busy in the evening..and we could have gone off earlier if not for Mr Sebby diao zeng for 4 times! He was on a losing streak before this lucky break. hengster! and he ended up the ulitmate winner.

Dropped them off at Somerset and then went shopping (PS to luckyplaza to taka and then mustafa) I finally bought the book i saw last week when i was out with JP, Denise and Derick. its a nice diary with useful information in it. hmm but i dont know what to do with it yet since i already have a schedule book. Maybe i will keep it til next year or my december trip.

Bran keep offering to drive down after his dinner and i shouted at him and say i don't want. sometimes i feel like a stubborn little girl and i felt ashame with my act. i guess i was way pissed off then, I just want to get out of that place.
After cooling myself down, i try to finish the drawings and within an hr, when bran came down, i have completed the drawings. He gave me a bottle of green tea and mineral water cos he know i can't drink the water from the tap even if its boiled. hee. such a sweet boy. but then, i realise i was too engrossed in finishing the drawings, i didnt drink the whole day at all. aiyah..so my water bottle was still full with water..

Wednesday
i slept for 2 hrs, and have to send my mum to the airport at 6am.. she is going away for 45days to china. happening lo. rush down to school for MA lesson. i can't believe i was dozing off half the time and when i open my eyes, I saw James looking at me.. paisey..

Motley Crue

2008-10-14T09:54:00.000-07:00

Motley Crue is the biggest, baddest and most notorious Hard Rock band of all time and they’re coming to Singapore on October 16th, 2008! Having survived three decades of decadence and nearly every possible obstacle, including several brought on by themselves, Tommy Lee, Vince Neil, Mick Mars and Nikki Sixx now find themselves in a once inconceivable position—that of rock ‘n’ roll royalty!

ok i dont know who they are..but..see me there!
