what will happen to the financial market???

2008-08-31T02:42:00.000-07:00

i went to Suntec today with my sisters..
and i can tell you that it is damn freaking crowded that i really cannot take it.
it is totally pack! and not that i am making a fuss out of it.
but Come on.. in a year, there are numbers of IT fair and for instance the Comets event held this weekend. it is not an event that happen once a year.. why are there always so many freaking human beings during such event who just crowd around......
And pls...i think out of 10 people only 1 person will be buying. or maybe people just go there without having the intention of buying to just join into the crowd. And during such event, the products might only be about 5% to 7% cheaper.. or even lesser...
Wah lao.... really dont understand why people wanan go throu such trouble to get such deals.

How time files. And I am back from Germany for about 3 mths.
really do miss the days when i am there. the winter, the environment, school and my friends.

There was once when i need to walk back home to get my lappie for a revision. before i left my classrom, the snow was not so bad...but as i was walking out of the school, the snow gets heavier and the wind starts to get stronger. my front vision of the town and the mountain is all white, i can hardly see anything. and i stood there for a moment, thinking if i can really make it back to my apartment alone. because i have never encounter such bad weather before and of course i felt terrified to walk back alone. moreover, there are not many people on the streets. in the end, i had to pick up my courage and walk back.

oh well...oh well... many fun and memorable memories there but I am back.. back...
back to my love ones.. back to my beloved bf. =)

anyway some updates of my current life..
1) busy and busy.. nothing but busy at work. (forgot the kind of life i wanted...)
2) more rest so that i will have the energy to chiong at work...
3) need ways to de-stress myself (retail therapy???)
4) planning where we should go for our 5th anniv
5) celebrating birthdays and many birthdays (mum, sis, nephew, collegues, secondary sch frenze, poly frenze..)
6) joining california fitness (work out more to burn off those calories and keep myself healthy)
7)spending time with jeremy. (haiz.. but i am too busy at work and too tired after work to meet him. feel so guilty..=(
8) hrmmp....forgot what i still did....

okie.. i need to get some beauty sleep to start work tomorrow.

hope u guys will stay happy and no monday blues if u are working...
=)

Cheerios!!!!!!!!!!!

My bf has decided to accept NUS offer and continue studying in Singapore, not Aussie...
Initially he planned to go Aussie to study to get his degree early..he even had all his documents ready and send it to the school...
He didnt apply for NUS but NUS still asked him to go for the test & interview. so he just went for the test and see how izzit..
And... ya, he received a letter of offer from NUS yesterday....
Shouldnt i feel happy for him and call for a celebration for his acceptance to NUS...
congrad him, be so excited about it, give him a hug/kiss, treat him to a nice dinner... plan a getaway trip... ...etc
well.. i didnt do any of that... i just feel nothing..
nothing...
why???
cuz i hope he will go Aussie to get his degree and masters. but his family suggested that he should go NUS since the duration of his course is not much of different... about 4 years. (3 yrs degree, 1 year masters)
well... so i just let him decide what he really wants and try not to influence his decision.
so conclusion: NUS.....
haiz..okieokiee..

ESTEE NEO CAN U STOP FEELING THIS WAY!!!! ALSO NOT U STUDYING LAH... IT IS HIS DECISION AND HE IS THE ONE STUDYING IT..
MOREOVER YOU ARE HIS GF, SHOULDNT U BE MORE SUPPORTIVE AND STOP GIVE SUCH A FACE... I TOT YOU TOLD HIM THAT WHATEVER HIS DECISION IS, YOU WILL SUPPORT HIM... NOW U ARE DOING THE OPPOSITE!!! Arghhh!!!!!

be happy can... be happy... :)

great great.... Dr said that i would be able to remove my braces soon...

i think it will be in another 3 to 6 mths... and no more bracey ESTEE!!!!

yeah yeah... i really do anticipate that day manz... haha...

i still remember when i was struggling whether to put braces last year...

because i do not have the courage... and putting braces was never in my mind nor was it a solution for my bunny teeth. And during that period of time i really hate seeing myself in the mirror.. i feel my teeth are so ugly. i hate to smile in a picture, seeing my bunny teeth before anyone face in the picture.. i really do hate it... hate myself??? a little...

do i sound depressing??

oh well...everyone will go through such phrase in life rite??? the growing up stage???

so so... after speaking to Pam (she did her braces too) and sharing her experiences with me... it kinda give me more courage and motivation.. if not i can really drag and drag..year after year thinking and not doing anything... haha... and i bugged so many people, asking them for opinion...

my poor jeremy is one of them... haha... and he said that he dont really encourage me to go for it....

why??

"because i love you for who you are and there is no need to go throu such pain to look beautiful. To me, you are always beautiful... "

so sweet rite... heehee... anyway, I can tell that he didnt say it just to make me feel better... haha.. oh well... i know him well enough to judge that, that why i am his gf!!!! hohoho...

whatever it is...i still went for it...

and here i am now!!! with neat and straight teeth...

HAPPY ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!

haha... wanna see the differences ??? (tried looking for the best up close photos)

okiee.. i put a funny picture of me and jess with super Retro hair... (BEFORE)

Nat, Christina und Me (AFTER)

i think the picture is not clear enough!!! sianz....

okie people.... if u have been hesitanting whether to put braces and you feel that your teeth look bad.... GO FOR IT!!! it will really change your look and your smile... and seriously, u will have more confident..

I wouldnt say that i look prettier lah... oh pls, i not so thick skin... i am encouraging people because it will improve your overall look.. IMPROVE...

The last trip in Germany: Lugwigsberg

Before i fly back, Andy suggested a few places he wanted to show me instead of having a drink or meal together. so we decided on Lugwigsberg because i love seeing the interior architecture of the palaces and it is also nearer to Mosbach which will only need about half an hr drive. so i called Pat & Kate along too. =) oh manz... miss the two crazy girls!!

LUDWIGSBERG PALACE

Ludwigsburg Palace is one of Germany's largest baroque palaces and features an enormous

baroque garden. The palace was at times one of the most magnificent courts in Europe.

**Andy arranged a english guilded tour for us too...

** oh god...the baroque is so beautiful...
This is one of the hallway in the palace.
**King Friedrich's bedroom

**Queen's bedroom

so below are the pictures of the palace garden....

**me and crazy kate... (miss this russian girl so much)

okiee.. thats all... haha.. too lazy to type...

picture speaks louder than words..

take care people!!!!

2008-04-20T07:42:00.000-07:00

A few pictures that i took when i was on the way to school...
It was during end of March when the snow were rather heavy..
oh ya.. my camera is not so good that it can take the falling snow..

we were busy snow fighting during break so didnt manage to take any photos of our crazy moment. =D

2008-04-09T01:54:00.000-07:00

Arghh... boring lecture...

ahhhhhhhhhhhh....................................

****************************************************************************

GREAT!!! going home soon... =)
woohoo.......
but before flying off, i will be staying at Frankfurt for a few nights to go for some shopping and meeting up with one of my German frenze. I think she is going to bring us to take some kind of transport that will show us around frankfurt scenary while we can try Frankfurt popular drink "Apple Wine". i ever tried that in Heildelburg, it smelled nice but doesnt taste as good. so we shall see ya?
only me and patricia is going back first. Fang Shuai will leave one day later to eat his XXXXXL BURGER and maybe spa?? =_=" yup...i know i know..he is crazy.
The other 3 is going slovenia, Lon (France), Florence; Venice; Rome (Italy), Manchester (UK)..

oh well... hope i can go next time...

2008-04-02T16:12:00.000-07:00

When we were just little girls

Our Hero Dad, was you

There was nothing you couldnt fix

Or find a way to do

You were so strong and perfect

in our young adoring eyes

we knew no other dad could be

so wonderful and wise

although we see alot of things

much differently these days

you're still my shining hero

in so many special ways

for whenever we're together, dad

our adoring eyes looked at you again

for this man we're very proud of

and we give our love to you.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

dear god, pls listen to my prayer.

pls bless my father with good health and strong courage to go throu this crisis.

we will always be there for him as what we have always promised

i am willing to take his pain, his worries, his illness all to myself for the sake of his happiness

i am willing to take all these suffering on myself because he is my father whom i love and respect.

god, i seek for your help to let this series of pain be over soon.

i really want my parents to be happy without worries again.

2008-03-24T16:38:00.000-07:00

2008-03-05T14:23:00.000-08:00

**just a reminder, Day 1 & 2 of London trip is below.

Day 3
Our last day in London before we set off to the airport at night.
Sadz... London is just so beautiful... =(

so we went to The Camden Town in the morning. i am not sure why we decided to go there. hrmmp.. maybe i am the one suggesting it..haha.. i forgot..because Jeremy's sister suggested that we could visit Camden Town. so.. here we are...

CAMDEN LOCK MARKET

it is very similar to bugis villages cuz of the small stalls, narrow alley, things they sell... frankly, there is nothing to buy there. just to go there see see look look... because their clothes or bags seems to be from HK or some asian country. and since i am from an asian country, i wouldnt be so stupid to buy things from there using pounds. =_=" you can take a look from the below pictures of what they are selling... quite weird.. haha... those are minority of it.. :)
**wah.. blanga should wear this at night. so that they can be seen. hahaha.. oh manz...
i really wonder who the hell wear such clothes and to where???? even if it is retro night.. it should be so wild rite?? faints...
imagine traffic police wearing this outfit at night... hahahaha..

we were just bored.... :)

Looks a little like bugis village rite??ITS FOOD TIME.....

There are so many stalls so we end up choosing this place because there is seats for us to eat and rest... hohoho... this aunty who own the eatery is a malaysian, from penang... so all the food is rather asian way of cooking.. and its NICE... yUmMy....

guten appetti!!! :)

After eating, we took a bus and set off to Westminster. Random pictures of us..
Pictures taken when i am in the bus.
There we are....

WELCOME TO WESTMINSTER...St Margaret Church (it is near to Big Ben)BIG BENLONDON EYE
woo...its windy
Picture above: Westminster Abbey & House of ParliamentmE and Beatrice... After we were done with London Eye and Big Ben, we took a bus to Trafalgar Square where the National Gallery is.National Gallery (above)Trafalgar Square

After visiting the National Gallery (free), me and pat took a tube to Victoria station to change our bus ticket to the airport. we bought a to and fro bus ticket on the first day. Because ours is a Victoria bus ticket, we will have to board the bus from Victoria to the airport. But we wanna join the guys to board the bus at Liverpool. So we gotton make an extra trip to change it. well... there was a little chaos when we bought the tickets at first. hrmmp.... nvm nvm...

meanwhile, the guys went to Piccadilly circus to do some shopping... because there is a sales going on. anyway, that shop sells all the sports wear... so its kinda waste of time if me and pat go there... haha.. so we went on separate ways and meet at 7pm Covent Garden Station with Silvia and Helen. we are planning to watch the Dirty Dancing Musical... :)

**fake fake making a call.. haha... while waiting for the latecomers at Covent Garden.

DIRTY DANCING MUSICAL we took the student price for the musical which is 22 pounds each.

**mum dad, its a really nice musical... :D heehee

**hrmmp... its a musical base on dance and romance.. its like "Step up" dunn think too much ya? haha ... well, some people who dunn know, will.

I bought a Dirty Dancing umbrella.. haha...

after watching the musical (2h plus), me and pat tried to rush back to the hostel and get our luggages and head down to the Liverpool station. luckily, we manage to get the bus to the airport because we were late when we reached and the bus is actually 20 mins late. sianz.. make us rush.. oh..ya, we forgot we are in London not Germany. Because we are so use to Germans being punctual, even the train reach on the dot!

so i shall carry on with barcelona trip tml...

more and more pictures coming up...

Thanks for reading...

hahaha..

Buckingham Palace & Kensington Palace

2008-03-04T13:28:00.000-08:00

this morning was so cold... i tot winter ended.. but the weather suddenly changed. and i wasnt prepared when i went out.. so half a time when i was walking home, i felt so cold. its like seeping into my bones.
ohh...we saw snow flakes too and its really nice.. :) but didnt take any picture because i dunn think it is visble on the camera.

anyway, if u are wondering why i am toking about next day and not the very first day i am in London its because the entry is below. pls scoll down.. :)

Next day, we went to Buckingham Palace to see the Mounted of Guards at 11am.
The changing of the Queens Life Guards (Mounted on Horses) take place daily at 11am Monday to Saturday and 10am on Sunday. But there wouldnts be changing of guards on rainy days.

Before arriving at Buckingham Palace, we passed by St James's Park and the scenery is so beautiful and relaxing. I think i can sit by the lake whole afternoon to just enjoy the view...oh ya.. with a cup of hot coffee too.. :)

oh well...i dont have time for that.. arghh... **day dreaming**

There are quite a number of squirrels at the park... they look so adorable running here and there... okiee.. here we are at BUCKINGHAM PALACE

Me and my German frenze, Beatrice the admission fee is about 14 or 16 pounds, to go into Buckingham Palace. its rather expensive and we didnt have much time for the tour. so we just stood outside to see the changing of guards for about 2 hrs and head off to Kensington Palace, where Princess Diana stayed... :)

There were so many people waiting to see the Mounted of Guards.. its like those teenages chasing after taiwanese idols.

There are two types of Queen's Life Guard. A Long Guard consisting of 17 men is mounted when The Queen is resident in London, otherwise a Short Guard made up of 12 men is mounted.

and if u wanna see if the Queen is in her resident, you will have to see the Flag that is on top of the building. British Flag means she is not at home. The Royal Family Flag means she is home.

**opposite Buckingham Palace... crowds of people...

**okie.. marching is over... :D

**All of us..

we bought a day travel ticket for bus and train where by we can take it unlimited for 5 pounds. its really convenient to travel around London. very similar to Singapore.

so we took a bus to Kensington Palace... and i paid 10 pounds to visit it. only 3 of us went. the rest didnt want to.

**Kensington PalaceIn it, they show case about the dressing, clothes of the royal family. the top grade material they use to make the clothes.... what they wore for different function, the various chambers. And of course, Princess Diana port folio, her videos, her clothes. its really very interesting. well.. i admit i am bad at descripting. so if u are going London, see it for youself. :)
London Tube.

(they called it Tube not train)

Their traveling cards are called Oyster. while ours is Ezi- Link Its rather small rite??ChinaTown

Picadilly Circus (above)

Harrods

Harrods is a little similar to Takashimaya. but i feel that it is more posh than Takashimaya.

Below is a photo of their groceries department.

we went to the Kids department to take a look. And do u want to make a guess how much is this children vehicle? it is a little smaller than a queen size bed. it has real engine to operate and need petrol too. but i forgot how fast it can go...

so how much?? guess first...

its about 14,999 pounds

(i feel a little dizzy....)

that is the most expensive amonge the rest. others is smaller in size and its about 4K to 5K.

(i feel dizzy again. kids kids...) This house full of bear is really cute. they have batteries on and can move too..**me and panda

really had a fun and exhasted day. and i think i didnt had my dinner that night. but i forgot why..

haha...

i will carry on day 3 soon... :)

2008-03-03T11:20:00.000-08:00

woo....been a long long time since i blog. i was rather busy with projects, exams, shifting of apartment, sleeping, discussing which country to visit.. etc.

and i realise i get tired and sleepy easily, i think it is because of the cold weather and my cosy big bed... hahaha.. damn happy ever since i move into this new apartment.. :D

anyway.. to have a quick update about my trip to london and barcelona.. it was really really great and fun. But i was kinda up tight when i was in barcelona because the security is quite bad and i feel that its worst than JB. well, maybe i am a tourist that why i have this feeling. it is like sporean going to JB and they feel it is so dangerous blabla... shall eleborate more later.. :

London

23 feb Saturday

Our german frenze, Helen and Silvia arranged to pick us up from our house (Pat and I) at 7pm and then head down to the Frankfurt Hahn Airport. It was really nice of them to offer to fetch us because they are living in another town (Sinheim)which is about half an hr drive from their town to ours. If not we will have to take a train to heidelburg (an hr) and they will pick us up there. Its really more convenient & cheaper to drive than to take public transport to the airport. Because we will have to take a train to heidelburg then change a bus to the airport which might take about 3 hrs plus. Moreover , it is really very troublesome to carry the luggage to take public transport. haha... lucky us.... :D

The other 6 of them went a day earlier than us because they bought tickets to watch a soccer match in St james park at New Castle Stadium. It was New Castle Vs Manchester United. They took the cheapest ticket which cost 40 pounds. its really crazy.. 40 pounds which is 120 sing. =_=" before they booked the tickets, they asked if i wanna watch the match for the experiences and atmosphere. i was like "huh?? are u kidding me?? 40 pounds" well, i am not a hard core soccer fan like them. so u cant blame me for reacting like tt rite?? haha.. i rather spend it on eating... :)

Initially, they tot that st james park is not very far from london.. maybe a few hrs of train ride to reach there. But when they asked the information counter about how to get to St james park, they got a huge shock. Taking a one way train is 100 pounds and bus is 40 pounds. i think they didnt expect it to be so expensive. anyway, everything is expensive in London lah. so they took a 8 hrs bus ride from London airport to St james park which is rather near to the border of scotland. HA! so far lah.... =_=" oh well, guess they had a fun time at the match..

Few photos taken by them.

my afew photos is like 2 only.. haha... i am just too lazy to upload so many of them..
so about me me me... :D
our flight is about 11pm. we arrived at Frankfurt Hahn about 9 plus to check in. dunn mix up Frankfurt Main with Frankfurt Hahn. it is two different airport which is not NEAR at all. previously, Frankfurt hahn was a military air base and now it turn into an airport for budget airline. yep..i took a budget airline which is Ryan Air.

**Patricia & I **Helen & Silvia**Silvia, me & Helen **so after checking in, we went to grap a bite before boarding the plane. and i had this --> yummy**London..here i come...:D

Initially, i feel that its really interesting to take a budget airline. because i have never been on a budget plane and you get to walk on the plane track and take those stairs to board the plane. BUT NOW... after taking the plane to london and from london to barcelona and from barcelona back to frankfurt....i seriously think it is such a hassel to climb up and down.. but well... you get what u paid.. so whats more can i expect. sianz...

Here we are at London airport after a 45 min flight..**Helen and Silvia are really nice and friendly. they are like big sisters taking care of me and pat. Helen is 21 and silvia is 25. they knew each other for about 2 years ever since they studied in BA. **on the way to our hostel from the bus station.**Picture below is London Bridge. Nothing fasinating.. just a normal bridge..

our hostel is at Borough street or its Borough Station if taking the tube. And the next stop is Elephant & Castle which is just further down the street from my hostel. the day before we arrived at london, i search the internet to check where is MOS London. and i knew it was at Elephant & Castle... but i didnt know it is SO near lah... oh my god... hahaha.... and we planned to go on the last night of our trip. if u realise, i said planned... in the end, we didnt make it. cuz there were so many place to visit and we were so exhasted every night. but two of my frenze did go and take a look. oh well... seems that MOS is not really a big thing in London.. =_=" hrmmp.. hope i will be able to go on my next trip.. :D**hrmmp..i shall not tok about my hostel. you can ask me if you want. hahaha...
so after checking in, we went to meet up with the rest of the gang.
racky the area and there we are...

at TOWER BRIDGE

**Behind us is Thames RiverAfter much photo taking, we decided to have a lunch cum dinner meal. its was like 430pm and we havent take our lunch. The rest of them ate already.. so we head on ourselves.**food food......while walking throu this alley, we randomly asked the locals if there are any place to reccomand for us to eat... and as usual, we see pizza.. pasta.. really sianz... finally, a guy who happen to be parking his car, introduced us to a chinese resturant which is behind the alley... the food is really nice. really like spore or msia kinda food.......hahahaha.... yummy.... we took the buffet meal which we think is reasonable and we can have many variaties. there is pineapple rice, honey bake chicken, duck, spring roll, prawn cracker, pork rib, sweet sour pork, fried noodle...etc. i think its about 7 pounds.

if u are converting..its 21 sing for normal food that we eat in spore, i know u will start laughing..wondering why we travel all the way to London and eat that.. oh well, you wouldnt understand till u are physically living oversea and realise that everything is just so expensive that eating bread may also be equally expensive. just keep the comments to yourself k? :) (of course i dunn refer that phara to my folks...haha...)

so mum dad...no worries..i am eating well...sleeping well... hahaha... of course i will spend within my means... :) The night view of Tower Bridge is so beautiful... wahh.... i totally love LONDON.... Picture below is not a postcard neither did i use photoshop...

St Paul's Cathedral

okie.. thats about it for day 1... really tired..

i shall continue soon k??

more to come...

have fun reading... :)

2008-01-29T07:54:00.000-08:00

Another attempt... but i think the rice is abit burned.. hahaha.. still can eat...really.. The living room. It looks messy rite.. cuz the guys came for dinner so i think they mess up the place. hahaa.. if u guys know, i am very jie pi one... haha...

there is also a massage chair at the corner.
hrmmp..think they were playing House music (cuz that is the only CD in the radio of the owner) and they are trying to dance.. how to dance with house music?? i seriously dunn understand...=_="
Dickson trying to help out with the cooking while i take some photos....

At Dickson's place.. thinking of wat to eat.. haha.. and so Shachin took out all the packet food he brought from spore..

My first German lesson.. :)Top view of Mosbach.

We had a tour around the town guilded by a principle of a high school.

2007-12-25T06:16:00.000-08:00

Germany awaits!!!!

2007-12-25T04:54:00.000-08:00

hey peeps
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!
hope all your wish come true... :D

This year Christmas is a little messy and blur... but i still enjoyed it. haha... because we realise that no one organised the party properly, as in the programs, food, etc...
Everyone tot that it will be me and wei wen organising it and i tot its my other frenze who will be doing it... so we end up being confused and decided to inform them to just head down to my frenze house by evening, order in for dinner and our party just went so smoothly that everyone seems so high... And all thanks to Xiang effort for thinking of the games and props for that night.

seriously, my friends are a bunch of monekys.... they happily see others breaching the rules of the game and start wacking the loser. Out of the blue when i was explaining one of the games, one started dancing a weird dance and three other follow..... i nearly died laughing and get them in control with the game... haha
yep... lots of laughter and screaming. For that, my voice went hoarse. haha
whats new manz?? whenever i had gathering with them, my voice is always at risk. haha.. like having a battle with them...

Initially i was rather scare that i will feel sad during christmas eve and those parties. Scare that i will become a little emo again... Because jeremy went for a holiday and wouldnt be able to keep me accompany for 5 days from the day before christmas eve. :(
So we celebrated earlier :) miss him lots...

didnt go for any count down party during this christmas eve, so i went to my aunt's christmas party at her house and thereafter head down to DXO pub to meet my friends.
And someone made a huge scene there... but doubt i should reveal much here... hahaha...
oh well, i just cant help but laugh manz.... the scene was totally hilarious to see someone fell at the entrance of the toilet and luckily HL was around to help her out, cuz i didnt have the strength to carry her up. :D
haha... had a great time with them too... :)

miss my TNT Express colleagues

looking back on the first few weeks of attachment, i feel luckily meeting such nice colleagues at work. Generally, they are all quite young... 20s to 30s. they are like frenze, nice to chat with, funny, caring...constantly asking if i am okie at work, buying me food to eat, chilling out, getting me gift when they go for a holiday... its just so nice of them.
Althou these are normal gesture that all colleagues in office does in a way of being courtesy, it is just different from all the office environment i have ever work at. because i can feel their sincerity and warm... not just doing for the sake of it.

haha... that why i have this mixed feeling yesterday cuz its my last day at work

happy sad happy sad happy sad happy sad happy sad
so what is making me happy? what is making me sad???

not sure.... i just cant put it into words.. its just the feeling lo...

and the feeling just dampen my mood when i actually planned to go St James with jeremy that night. sianz.... so we just went for a walk around esplanade

then i receive a call from home that someone send me a bouquet of flowers and a small gift. and i turn to look at my bf, using handsign to ask izzit him... hahaha... but he look blur... anyway how could it be him when he is just beside me... he can just pass it to me himself what.. oh well.. i didnt tot of that at the point of time.. haha..

then my mum told me that its my colleagues from my department.

i was so touched... its just so sweet of them... i am just an intern who is leaving yet they are still so nice to me.. :) :) will miss them so much...

Bouquet of flowers and a box of necklace.

haha.. camwhoring... :D

2007-10-08T07:32:00.000-07:00

hrmmp.....

Have u ever felt the chill of loneliness?when you have no close frenze to count on, only those who walk in and out of your social circle? but they are just not the frenzes whom u can pour your woes to?

Those Hi and bye "frenze", smile and hugged you as thou they are the best buddy in the world but will suddenly vanish when u need help.

How about those who treat you so nice, yet backstab you without you realising it?

Have u ever encounter being left out by all your frenze?? For instance, u are the last one to know that there was a celebration and it was all over when u knew it. or maybe knowing the event through many people but not the organiser himself/herself?

i do see people around me going throu it. and i do feel lucky that i am not the "one of them". Maybe its because i have already found my best and closest frenze so i need not try to search for them... maybe i have yet to know such hideous people and of course, i would never want to know them. still, we will never understand those people motive if they really want to be the way they want...i just hope i am able to handle and tackle "that type of people" without making myself feel depress and miserable... cuz i want them to feel miserable instead of me taking it...

oh well, thats life!

the toughest win

**************************************************************

anyway, jess's birthday was really a day that shows true friendship...
hahaha... i think i am so evil cuz i can actually smile for what happen that night and act as thou nothing happen... what a frenze i am. but u cant blame me manz, cuz its not my birthday and i cant invite them when the birthday girl dunn want or forget about them..
haha... anyway, i can be a really good frenze. :D
really...
really...

am i right, wei wen and jess????
hahahaha

2007-09-22T01:35:00.000-07:00

2007-09-20T08:09:00.000-07:00

am i really that bad??

i dunn know....i'm confuse. i'm at a loss of the next move.

no matter how much i try, i can never be a good girlfrenze.

i have so much thing in mind... but i cant put it into a clearer picture.
its draining my willpower.

my heart ache. my tears blurred my vision.
but i must not cry. not infront of other people.

god, pls help me and give me the strength to move on.

2007-09-10T07:04:00.000-07:00

i finally manage to dig out time to blog. haha... maybe i should say i have nothing to blog about..
arghh.. whatever.. grumpy me...

currently having attachment and its only week3...
haiz..i am damn sick travelling all the way to changi business district early in the morning. Gotton wake up at 6 plus to get ready and head to work by 730am, just to catch the company bus. and why company bus rite??? Because the company is located very far from the MRT station and there is only one freaking public bus that is going there and you will have to take 20 mins if u actually walk from Expo mrt... its so Ou lu!!! but still there are alot of other logistic companies and blabla companies there too.. arghh..

guess u people dunn know where i am attached to unless we always catch up.. haha...
oh well.... :D okie..whatever..i'm being random.

anyway, i am attached to TNT. If u have not heard of it, it is a logistic company like FedEx, UPS, DHL... compared to other companies, TNT dunn really publicize as much so I'm not surprise if u ask me what does the company do.
hmm... somehow i felt kinda lucky that i was posted to TNT and i am doing smth related to my studies. cuz i was so worried that the annoying school will post me to werid places just to do admin work and i even tried to self-place myself but it was tough to get through. haha... thank god for hearing me. :D :D

Met up with Joyce and Sharon after work last week and sharon gave us "cold sweat" manz. haha... its the third day after she got her license and she nearly knock onto another car. ai yo...new driver still so reckless, if not all her effort of getting the license will go down the drain.
I realise I dunn like to drive compared to last time... rather let others fetch me, sit back and relax.... haha... hope my driving skill wouldnt rust. :D

2007-08-07T09:12:00.000-07:00

yeah.. FINALLY all my projects are over...
i can have a nice sleep and do all the stuff that i missed out during my project period.
woohoo....... and my mask is waiting for me.. haha

i went to tighten my braces last week. and i have no idea why it is so tight compared to the previous time. usually after tightening, i can either use the side teeth or the few front teeth to bite my food... but this time, i can use neither of them... the pain is so "suan" that i rather not talk and eat. so i just drank milo or soup for lunch/ dinner... and keep feeling hungry thoughout the day. haiz... its like torturing myself. my mum seem rather worry and upset seeing what i am going through so she kept asking what i wanna eat so that she can cook for me. sweet rite??
yepyep.
oh well... just gotton endure with it.
as the saying goes "ai mei bu yao ming"
hahaha.... i can "ren"... i can!!!

anyway, i called the traffic police today regarding the conversion of my M'sia driving license. But i was being put to an answering machine. And i really hate answering machine. it is really frustrating. you gotton listen to a pre-record human voice speaking to u... and u have to follow exactly what she says just to get your things done.
please press 1. For enquires please press 5. blablabla....
its like u gotton listen to all the options before u can decide on which number to press. damn waste of time.
yea..maybe for the organisation, they wanna narrow down the enquires from customer by directly them to different department or call centre. But tell me, which customer likes to "talk" to an automated answering machine...
hrmmpp... whatever... i am just grumpy...

Recently i have frenze who are in the dilemma of breaking up... or they are chilling off.
and majority of them are in a long term relationship. hmm... 3 to 4 years??
they have quarrels, disagreement, past lies haunting them or "the feeling has fade away"

Of course, its normal for couples to have arguement. But what exactly lie underneath these predicament?

When a couple is in a long term relationship, they tend to expect their partner to do/react what they should be doing. because of the years being together, the level of understanding should be there. But there will sure be times like "i tot u know i dunn like", "why u always need me to repeat?"

Moments when feeling fade but you know you will still love her/him. How are u going to struggle all by yourself and get the feeling back? How are u going to make things work out?
Its a headache rite? ya.. it is...

How about taking your partner for granted? will u do that without realizing it cuz she/he treats u like queen/king?
Or you cant bear to break up cuz you are so used to the life with him? seriously, u have to draw a clear line between loving the person and being used to the person in your life. loving her will make u feel that there is a need to have her in your life. but being used to the person without love, carry no value in continuing the relationship.

Anyway do u encounter people who ask if u are attached then carry on asking "how long have you two being together?" haha.. i guess we do lah. and usually their reply is: "huh! 4 years? so long. Can get married already lah!" blabla.... haha.. maybe they just casually commented smth like tt.. but u have to think whether is he the one for you, is the understanding between u two deep enough to carry on to the next level rather than concluding everything just because of the years being together.

somehow i feel that number of years being together are just numbers for the sake of memory. what's important is the chemistry between a couple, the love and understanding that will sustain a relationship. The forgiving and forget to ease the tension with one another.

i wouldnt say that i am good at handling it cuz i am constantly learning from my mistake and from my bf.
oh well... everyone do learn as they grow up rite... :D

cheerio!!!!!! stay happy people!!!!

2007-07-31T06:15:00.000-07:00

preverts are just an annoying piece of shit... damn assholes...
why izzit always me and not other people.... did my face stamp with a "come scare me"???seriously, i am damn pissed... i really dunn understand why i am so sway.
its not becuz i am home late or i wear clothes that are revealing. (and i also dunn really wear revealing clothes lah)
those fucking ass randomly pick females to stalk or flash. BUT why am i so unlucky that i will encounter twice at my house downstairs.
arghh..... and previously, it happened in JB twice again. these man are damn sick manz.
ya...they have achieved their aim by scaring me but it is really outrageous, they flashed as thou their dick is mean to be out.
arghh... angry angry.
but why did i get scare so easily and walk away quickly....
should have scolded and shouted at that asshole.
anyway, i did report to the police immediately during the previous time
and the blanga quickly walk away cuz he know i called the police...
but then... what can the police do?? patrol around the housing estate??
but they cant do it every hour rite... haiz... whatever it is, i am damn sway...

2007-07-21T09:32:00.000-07:00

busy busy.... damn busy... so many things to do.. yet there's only 24 hrs a day for me.

i even forget how many tutorials and lectures i have skipped because i cant wake up in the morning to attend it...
and i cant crawl out of bed cuz i have been sleeping late, rushing projects, research research and research, meeting..etc... *shag* I have 5 projects to submit in 2 weeks time or izzit one week time?? oh well... just gotton get it over and done with... moreover i have different group mates for different modules so its kinda tough to find a common time for all of us to be free... if not, we will have msn meeting..

During this period of time, my family has a new arrived member (yep..its baby darius) who brought us lots of joy and excitement, my second sis is back from melbourne (which means she will have more stuff to share with me.. hahaha...oh well, we are sisters plus mum always say that we should share... hoho.. she brought back quite a HUGE number of her barang barangs that exceeded 12kg of her baggage. and also ship back 5 boxes of her books, magazine, shoes...etc. i really dunn know how my sis managed to pack and bring back her whole room of junks. think she took about few days to pack. oh ya...i asked her to bring back more Abalone Macadamia nuts cuz it is just so delicious and addictive. its so nice that "once u pop, u cant stop"....so u must try it, if u have not. :D . Anyway, i din mention that she got fatter rite?? ya.. i didnt... okiee... hahaha...)

Last week, me and my mum attended my cousin's daughter full month celebration at Tanah Merah Country Club. which was also baby darius full month...its not on the actually date..but they wanna put it on the weekend so that it is easier for everyone. so baby darius celebrated his one day later than hers thou their birthday dates are only different by two days. :D

not sure when or why i have develop a phobia of seeing myself.... cuz i'm ugly?? i really dunn know. there are times when i'm scare of looking into mirror cuz it scares me or maybe i scare myself.. izzit my features or what.. dun know dunn know... i shouldnt be like tt rite... i should be contented with what god gives me.... i should... :)

oh well....forget it... i have more important things to deal with than such weird phobia i am developing...

HAVE a nice day peeps!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

2007-06-19T10:02:00.000-07:00

Introducing Baby Darius..........

i wasnt at the hospital at the time of his birth because i was at my aunt's house for my grandma's birthday celebration.
How coincidence, rite? Physically, i was at my grandma's party and mentally, i was worried and excited... thank god... everything went well..... :D

The first two posted pictures were not taken by my brother in law. it was one of the doctor who was rather free after injecting the epidural into my sis's spin. and did i mention he was reading newspaper in the OT?? hmm..i am not sure if that's true... haha..
oh well, at least we got some memorable photos for baby Darius at the moment he was born.. there are more photos of him but i can only post these three... because sis might not like it... yep yep...

The little precious boy... he is just so adorable. so cute...
Love this little baby to bits.......

2007-06-07T08:18:00.000-07:00

all focus seems to be on global warming these few months...rising sea level... flooding, drought.
oh well... since part of europe is sinking, will singapore submerge into the water one day... haha... hmm.... possible but highly-unlikely...cuz there are indonesia and malaysia arounding us..

I watched one of the documentary about Global Warming last week and its quite scary knowing that the Arctic is thawing rapidly. Shrinking and thinning of ice cap. Even winter cold has not been refreezing compared to the few years back. Poor Polars... how are they going to survive??(Guess the polar bears in Alaska should migrate to Singapore Zoological Garden... at least they will be feed.) haha... anyway, the US government have named Polar bears as a species threatened with extinction due to the declines in bear survival.

And in the documentary, they showed a polar bear swimming for days in the whole Arctic Ocean without any ice cap for it to rest on. only small cubes of it that cant even hold the weight of the bear's paw. that will happen if the temperature rise and ice cap melting constantly. No land for polars that will make them swim and swim till they reach another country or find something to rest on, on the sea. (will they die due to exhastion after weeks of swimming??)?????not sure..

Anyway, i found out an interesting news.
cuz parts of Europe are sinking and houseboats become a common sight, Netherlands are actually designing building that floats on sea water to cope with rising sea level. They are regular houses and their foundation allow them to rise as water levels rise.. The houses have a hollow concrete cube at the base and are anchored by two vertical columns that can withstand a rise in the water of up to 4m. Can you imagine yourself staying in these floating residential buildings, roads and office building?? maybe 50 years down the road when everything is submerge into the sea...

hmm...wouldnt it be easier for people who wanna commit suicide, as in just jump into the sea??? oh..people who love fishing will like this idea... fishing at anywhere, anytime.. oh well, just thinking too much...

2007-06-04T07:20:00.000-07:00

oh great!!!!Holidays is in a week time and i can go shopping and do all the stuff that i have been wanting to do since school started. seriously, i dunn know what i have been busy with during the first month of school.. projects??? projects??? tests??? not sure...

Cuz she has been running in and out of the hospital because of her high blood pressure. **lets pray that everything is fine, k ** and i feel so helpless, cuz i cant do anything... haha... never mind, i will pray for her and give her moral support.. :D

anyway,i realise i cant draw bunnies for godsake....it dunn look real at all... and why does he have the talent in drawing.. arghh.. okie..nth, just being random haha

2007-05-04T09:59:00.000-07:00

back after seeing my dentist. my braces is currently as tight as the first month when i just started putting it on. there wasnt any pain during the first few hours after the dentist tighten my braces to close up the gaps but when night fall... the pain gave me such a bad headache that i cant sleep. i kept getting up from bed to get ice water... not just cold water... but ice water to numb the pain. yea...i did take a panadol...it didnt help much thou...
its okie... i can do it... for the sake of beauty, i can... (seriously, there is no way out since i have it on now. Might as well encourage myself..) hahaha......... =_="

anyway, i am glad that i took up my courage to go for an orthodontic treatment. as you know, i used to have two bunny teeth that people who are nice, will say that it is unique. And people like my close frenze will tease me... haha... pals, dunn worry i still love you people k??? and there are also frenze who begin to tease me about the bunny teeth i use to have. because now that i am with braces, my teeth will soon be nice and straight so they didnt annoyed me like my close frenze did last time... haha

(one year back before i put braces)

**Now**

yep... smile is the most important part of the features.

Look in the mirror.

Do you like your smile now?

Can your smile be improved?

Think about how you react to someone with a pretty smile.

Do you find them more attractive?

Will you be more attractive with an appealing smile?

A smile that can last for the rest of your life.
