All the best.

Met up with Joyce and Jinhui yesterday afternoon. But, I was late and i truly regretted for being late as the stupid jinhui ordered SO MUCH food. I swear the food is sufficient to feed another 3 person. In the end, he being very him, he refuse to let me foot the bill. I wonder why the waiters/waitresses always assume that the guy is footing the bill and will always walk towards them. I WANT TO FOOT THE BILL. Next time, I will walk up to the cashier instead. &%%*^#@$

My dear joyce face is so dry and I can’t help but suggest to get her some moisturiser. Please my dear, apply them on ur face religiously. Face is the most important part of a woman. Of course, the breast and other organs are important as well, but face is the first thing that people look at when they look at you. Which girl dun wan to be pretty?! hahh… be a good girl!!!

well well.. Had a good chat with the both of them and i do understand why Joyce is worried about the life in Australia. Don’t worry my dear, things will work out fine. People do learn and adapt, Man do mature and start thinking. Things will be fine!

Well wellll… We went to coffee bean and sat down, and we really TALK. Joyce is really a listener and not a talker. I’m so happy for her to see how “talkative” she is now and how happy she is with jinhui. The power of Love. I guess, it has been some time since i hear her talk so much. In the past, she seldom speak when we are in a group, perhaps she is still as quiet now, but i prefer to hang out with her alone or with jinhui as that makes her more talkative. My Joyce filled with joy. =)

Hope things will go smoothly for her and she will be happier over in Australia. I look forward to her hug again. =) All the best~

Amsie is back from USA!! and guess what… She bought me OREOs!!! The American Oreos that I’ve been dreaming about!!

Oreo~

I am so happy! It really taste different! It is some kind of softer and it juz melt in milk. It taste heavenly! There’s a total of three rows. The packet is resealable packet and you can reseal it back like the baby wipers!

In order for the consumers to know that the packet has been opened before, they have this safety seal!
So cooooool! I think I was too excited about it that Calin and Amsie they all were luffing. I think I looked a little silly but who cares! i’m just so happy!
I’m loving it!
Let’s talk about the Dinner last nite! It’s fabulous~ Our dear yiling took the effort to remove the ends of the bean spout as well as to cook the laksa. And… We had prata tooo! The prata is good but my cooking sux, I burnt this prata and in the end got to throw away! I’m so sorrry… But, I show my apologies through finishing all the pratas in the plate. We got to wait for those photos.. It’s with Amsie and Yiling. What a lovely evening with those babes! Also, we had our gift exchange. I got this cute orange towel from Pris. haha.. The doggie prints on it is soooooo cute!

EMO week..

December 26, 2007 · 1 Comment

It’s a emo-week for the 2 rusty friends of mine, as well as for me. Hope things will go smoothly for them and hope everything will be okay for them. Life is tough, life is full of uncertainty. But that’s also why life is exciting and worth living. We look forward and to accept the challenges that fall upon us, to realize the goals that we have set for ourselves.

The year is ending, and when I looked back, I asked myself. What have I achieved in the last year?  There are many times that we have taken many things for granted, thinking that there are plenty of time to do what we want to do and should do. How many do understand and value the meaning of “Live Life like today is the last day”. Personally, I’ve heard it so often and yet, I do not truly practise it.

The year will soon be over, for the past year, I’ve been studying for things that I do not know if they will be useful in my future work. I see little relevance of what I study and the work I am doing. I guess, going to school is to learn how to learn. How to go about taking in the huge amount of knowledge and digest it within the shortest time. How to do something in a smart way, how to fill in the gap of what is missing in today’s society. Isn’t these the important ingredients to a successful person in life?

Looking back, this year might be a fruitful year for me as I tried my best to earn for what I spend, to be responsible for whatever I do. I keep myself motivated to balance out my time in school and at work. Perhaps, that’s cause me to miss out the happy time that I could have spend with my friends.

Like what I’ve told elvina. I have not been the a good friend for her and every of my friend when in times of need. I know that and I hope I could improve that in 2008. Although I might not make it for the many gatherings and outings, I do wish them happiness and hope that everything go smoothly for everyone of them. I do miss them, I do regret for not taking the time out for them. But sometimes, there are many things in life that we need to prioritize. I have learn not to regret for things that I’ve done or have not done. I will learn from these lessons of life and hope to make it better. I am able to realize how beautiful life can be because of those foolish mistakes that I had made in the past. Learn from mistakes, and indeed, it is such a blessing in disguise.

There are many things that I have not do it well, but I will strive to do it better. Let us all enjoy every moment of our lives, reflect on what can be done to make the year a better year, what can be improve to make ourselves a better individual.

So much for my EMO week. Last of all, I really want to wish everyone a fruitful year ahead. Love you.

First Time

December 24, 2007 · Leave a Comment

It’s sort of the first time i actually sit in a church on Sunday. Somehow, I am touched by the bonding and love shared by everyone in there. I’ve learn many things there, though there are some which i disagree with. The session was in Chinese and Hokkien, even the bible his dad flipped are all in Chinese. I really find difficulties reading them. It is even more tedious to follow when the father was speaking hokkien.

His family is so devoted to Jesus that I foresee problems in future if we really intend to get married. They preach about their beliefs, encourage and invite everyone to attend church. On the other hand, my family has this bad impression of Christians due to some bad encounters with some of them.

Shrugz… Just see how things go.

It never seems to recover.

December 21, 2007 · Leave a Comment

I’m down with flu for one f**king week. Lost my voice, got back my voice, got a running nose, then now I’ve lost my voice AGAIN. How nice. I dunno what’s wrong with me. Is my viral infection at work or I’m just hopelessly weak. I need to get some sleep, hoping that my voice will recover when I wake up. *sneeezeeee*

My face turned GREEEN

December 19, 2007 · Leave a Comment

I guess i should be able to get the contract extended another 6 months. However, my marketing director would want me to get trained for the Siebel system. She suggested that she would send me overseas for a week training. My face turned greeeeen. I have never travel alone before and she is sending me overseas ALONE. My god…

But i don’t think that is likely because i’ve got school to attend. So, she suggested first week of Jan, before my school starts. She said that she will go find out before getting back to me. No matter what, I just wan to spend my countdown in Singapore, with Louis.

By going for training would mean that it is very likely that I would get a job in there, and it is a skill that I could use to beef up my resume. But, I’m so not adventurous and hope that someone could at least accompany me. =(

Everything is still in discussion and not settled. Shall Update again when everything is more fixed. =|

my nose juz kept running

December 18, 2007 · Leave a Comment

I never like running, but it seems like it’s a new hobby for my nose!

I have this running nose since morning and the mucus is so thick that it clogged my nose and making me feel so uncomfortable. Therefore, I’m working from home. Thank god that I could work from home! I am feeling so terrible that i am grabbing tissue in one hand, sneeze and blow, then throw it in a bin. Crap.. I look like someone crying for days.

I am going to have fever. This is really bad!!!

Early for once..

December 15, 2007 · 1 Comment

After so many days of waking up at 7am, my body clock so used to it. I woke up at 8am and i forced myself back to sleep. However, I gave up soon after as there is no way for me to go back to sleep. And here I am, blogging away~

This week didn’t start off well and didn’t end off well. The only happy thing that happened this week is that my big boss asked me to join them for the sales meeting in Bali. At first, I thought they might not even extend my contract as my marketing director did not really talk about extending my contract. Now that I’m joining them for the sales meeting, it seems to show a higher chance that I will be continuing in the company, but things are not confirmed until i sign the bloody contract.

Oh well.. I think my boss secretary is happy that I will be joining the trip. =D Some how, I could click with her and the finance assistant. Thought that I would be bunking in with her, but she got me a private room instead. So, everyone will have a room for themselves. This is really scary as I dun really dare to stay in the hotel room MYSELF. I just hope that the room is facing the sea or sth, so that I can have some seaview. Oooh.. I did a search and yeap, they do provide Bathrobe!! I am so happy! hahaha..

I do not know whether it’s hyatt or grand hyatt but well.. I looked at the rooms over the internet and I AM SO HAPPPPPY.

Although I need to skip a day school for the trip. Guess what… I don’t care! The trip will cost at least 600 bucks to fly there by SIA and stay in Hyatt.. I will go! The flight and hotel is confirmed! I’ll touch down Singapore in Terminal 3! Happy.. I love my company! =)

Bad weekend

December 14, 2007 · Leave a Comment

What a way to start my weekend. I was feeling sick for the whole day today, but i was so freaking busy that I can’t leave. After work, I went for my facial. I spent 50 bucks for another mask as i clearly know that the normal facial can’t fix my face as it’s as dry as the sahara desert. I guess the mask works as i can see that my skin is more moisturized. Alright, I got home and tried to take my dinner. But i vomited everything out after i took the dinner. I had vomited a couple of times since last night. Crap.. I think I’m really sick this time.  I’m feeling feverish. Bad weekend…
