aren't dec meant for xmas shopping and gathering with frens, or simply put, HOLIDAY? thanks to yog we have exams till 23rd dec. fml.

its the much dreaded part of uni life, or any school life again-- studyyy... didnt go home last wkend, and think it'll continue till exam ends. plain boring life, sick of can2 food, what can be worst.

keith's dad came with 2 roller kinda chair (wat u use in the study room la) yst. one red and one blue for each of us. heh. but i was just rolling from the table to the fridge, which has close to nth. zzzz. time to get mum stock it up for me this weekend.

23RD DECEMBER FASTER COME. PLS PLS PLS!!! :(

memorable 20th bday

2010-11-18T13:11:00.005+08:00

its the usual long thurs break. i still have tut and lab report to do, ahhh and laundry in the washing machine. but i'll still take some time to write abt my awesome 20th bday. all photos are alr up on fb though. a good thing its not too near exams yet. or rather is it? finals next month.. grrr...

friday night bf picked me up after my hall prod trailer shoot. i look damn weird in it anw. zzzzz. check out my fb if u are interested to see. yup den we headed to 2am dessert bar. yay we wanted to go there snce ages. reserved a sofa seat and its really a comfy place, its dark lightings.. but v crowded though.. explains the slow service... the dessert were not bad i would say. designer food. looks better than eating haha..(:

it was alr 12am but i think was hungry so we strolled down to check out EWF. and omgg they are open till 1am on friday nights so yay! we ordered original fries hahah (:

sunday night had a celebration with family. original plan was pan pac buffet. but i was too stressed up by 213 test that i requested to go somewhere nearer, and we ended up in ichiban again. but its when u feel, the company and ur mood is really more important than the food. and yup zongxian and keith joined us for the night too :D

on the actual day itself, the uni peeps bought me cake and present and card. really glad to have these ppl ard. imagine without them, how would lectures and tutorials and breaks be. (:(:
at night after bf's lesson we headed to town.. we wanted to go relax bistro in 313 cos i had been saying i want pasta, but sadly its closed, due to unknown reason. so we end up in trattoria italian kitchen. u can see it when u come up from somerset mrt. the food was not bad. and prompt service. its the 1st time we tried italian food. we tried local, jap, western, indian, chinese, korean and many many others food before... lol (:

then we ended with dessert at swensens, free firehouse sundae, and a banana split and a caramel ice blended and deep fried mushrooms (: hahaha eating non stop. oh plus a really nice birthday gift from the bf.. a new wallet. i really need it.. the old one was tearing apart... lol!! ((:

and was amazed by the numbers i saw on iphone... 178 wall posts for my bday.. i think its not a lot for many.. but years ago, i rmb i was so free i went to count. there were only like abt 50. lol.. cos of uni i guess, where were get to meet sooooooo much more ppl.. and everyone make a difference in our life. as i replied everybody's texts and fb msg, i think of who this person is, how i met him/her... especially ppl whom i havent met for ages, but still rmb me.. its a great feeling, really really.. (:

also wana give special thanks to everyone for the wishes and presents and cards...

THANK U (:

recess week is here!

2010-10-18T14:58:00.002+08:00

RECESS WEEK IS HEREEE (:

and it started with a blast :D

sherry's birthday on friday at the sentosa was cool!! the place is pretty and the food was great. plussss nice polaroids :D

rushed back for night cycling. was late so i just cabbed back. the queue at vivo was crazy-even-longer-than-bus-queue. even on call cabs cant come in thats how bad it is. so i trained 1 station to outram. and a good kind cab uncle drove me down at a speed of 120km/h omggg. cos i was whining abt how late i am alr. hahahahha. it was tiring as usual but the DnD ppl sure made things better. awesome ppl!! :D
slept my saturday away and met family at causeway point. sister's treat to an awesome crystal jade feast. woohooo. just niceeee. and shopping at causeway point just makes me feel guilty. including wat i bought in causeway, the whole week i bought polaroids, new clothes, new shoes, new earrings, new cleanser at faceshop.... omg i cant rmb wat else =s

after tuition on sunday mum and sis had this impromptu shopping desire at jurong point. but i end up being the one to buy stuff again. new watch! zzzzzzzz aft dinner met the bofriend Mr Keith for our movie date at bishan gv with his DnD lucky draw tickets hahaha. Eat Pray Love was cheeem, we were still discussing abt it aft we left the cinemas. lol. drove around to look for beancurd cos i was craving for it but failed cos its alr like 1am and all the shops were closed. dang. but still, great weekend out!!

more stuff to lookout for in recess week ;)

- later: xlb buffet with blk 3 and co.
-wed: OMC 10/11 Qing Gong Yan (international buffet)

cant wait! (:

flooded by workkkkk

2010-10-14T12:38:00.006+08:00

omggg i havent blogged since school started tsk. its been a busy 1 month.
and WHAT?!? U MEAN ITS GONNA BE RECESS WEEK??!! TIME IS PASSING TOO FAST YO!!

here i m on my 4hours long break on thursdays. procrastinating to start doing my lab report. hah. i guess i will get started when my laundry is done. thats 30 minutes more to go.

apart from the overwhelming information from these freaking hard modules, everything else is doing well =)

lets see..

lots of activities with the best hall og YEAK'M!!! glad the freshies always initiate to come up wth events and celebrations. MAF celebration with steamboat and @adm was fun ttm. pageant preview was a blast and DnD was fun with our yeak'm god blessing us many many lucky draw prizes!! (:
and boyfriend is awesome ♥
celebrated our 8th months on 10.10.10.. dined at PS cafe@dempsey which we always wanted try... the food is niceeeee like seriously. and island creamery to end off the wonderful meal!
besides celebration we had been having random good food to help pass the week fasterrrr. like sakae sushi, lai lai beef noodles@jp. great time spent tgt (:

not to forget.. dearest roomie!! works piling up for both of up, with school stuff and hall stuff, but we still take time off to catch a breath. like our weekly project 3262. with the almighty toaster we cook foodfor ourselves. together with the boyfriends of cos!! we had cheese tofu, bacon muchrooms, seaweed chicken, mexican chicken..... more to come with the upcoming xiao long bao buffet during recess week and welcome-back-to-school steamboat after recess week!!

and meet ups with the spms og for dragon boat event a few weeks ago, the esf girls for stay over at xiuwen hall, which i end up sleeping =x should have stayed up to watch the movie damn it...
and of cos, everyday is spent with the awesome girls+sihui's bf (haha!) during lectures and tutorials!! we clear each other doubts, learn tgt and have funnn :D

and i'm thankful to what i have in life now, with lots of stuff to look forward to...
even though i didnt get back to omc, i joined DnD which i believe will be a whole lot of different experience altogether.. and with a slightly lighter commitment in this committee, i gave hall prod cast a try. no idea how things would turn out to be, but definitely very excited abt it..

well, before all these, IT'S RECESS WEEK NEXT WEEK (:

last week!!

2010-08-17T11:13:00.007+08:00

its the last week before camp and school starts!! but we need to prep for camp on tues, wed, thurs, probably fri and stay in on sat!! omggggggg...

so we decided to enjoy ourselves and spend more 2ppl time (:

lunch at jack's place! we always wanted to go but end up eating sth else. this time we went to the one at amk! yup the isolated restaurant besides nlb...the place where my dad n mum always visit for their anniversary hahahhaha... the food is nice and ambience is good! value for money lunch sets :)

we pass by the singapore pools and decided to try our luck... there is this $1/$2/$5/$10 scratch it card.. if there are 3 matching no u get the prize stated. we bought 2 $1 card and won $2.. haha break even.. but after that we bought the $2 card and lost it! sighhh but its quite fun though! cheap thrills (:

caught Love in Disguise at amk hub... the show is abt everyone acting very dramatically to make the show funny.. so chen han dian was definitely a good choice.. but the plot wasnt good.. i think saying this wouldnt be a spoiler but LeeHom met the girl on the road, his car accidentally knocked into her, and guess what she was doing... Playing guzheng on the road -.- totally no link... but overall its still funny though...

after that went to queensway to buy agl identity... all 6 of us bought the same adidas pinkish red visor! super nice.. we were totally bitching the whole night omggg.. more to come during camp i'm sure !

going to army market to buy stuff for sp night with jac.. $8.50 fbts yo! and getting our visors embroidered (:

school startingggggggg!

2010-08-14T12:27:00.009+08:00

many many updates!

2010-07-08T12:31:00.006+08:00

hellooooooooo!

to be honest, i habent been here for the longest time. not exactly busy, but i dont know what i have been doing! 10 weeks since holidays started. fast siol!! well, had been working, doing camp stuff, troubled with hall stuff.. time to stop thinking about all these!! its holidays yo!

10000 things, big big small small have been happening to me and around me. sweet, happy, sad.

yes, sweet! goh sihui! u know what i am talking about! :D anw i am really happy for you!
i am not so brave when comes to relationship. like, always afraid sth bad will happen. not between us, but from outside. unsure of what people will say. but i guess i should really learn from ch&sh. well, whatever it is, its between us!

had been working at creative as a waitress with keith, xj & tik koon, jieshi & bryan, kenneth, jerome, sarene had been fun! but i am eating a lot and a lot everytime D: but i have to say i enjoy going to the different places for their events. expo, esplanade etc.. and i'm going marina bay sands today! :)

with family.. this work of mine is always at night so i spend lesser time dinnering at home ): last weekend we celebrated sis's birthday! she got some free cathay movie vouchers so we all went over to amk hub for ichiban and 枪王之王.. the type of movie daddy loves. but wasnt very good i would say... keith and i drove down to get lychee martini cake @ pine garden 1st before meeting the rest at amk. 1st time keith had dinner with my family. awesomezzz day out (:

i guess i habent been catching up with friends a lot. cos gatherings always falls untimely on work or meeting days... sighhh... the latest 1 i went was with wasat! here's for the sweet couple (:

frens, who are always there (:(:

not to forget esf! the bunch of girls whom i know since jc. is it cos of the few meet ups, omg we have so muchhhhh stuff to talk about. really really enjoyed being with them... :D

and yes there's bf! i am glad to have him around. always there to help, share my problems... whenever i just give a random suggestion to go somewhere, he will always try his best to bring me there! we have been going out excessively at night too! roti prata, bedok85 for supper, checking out woodlands waterfront, feast of steak, sakae buffet, ice cream, movie, going to airoirt etc etc...

and yes we always go for sth more special every month... or rather, reserve the day for time tgt... we went to tony romas at orchard hotel last month... followed by a spin around town (:

omg i think this post is rather disorganised. there are so many things i did, so many photos in the cam. i need a hard disk to store them all. seriously!

and i hope i get back to the blogging mode.. but u can always catch me on my facebook mobile uploads :DD

mama day ♥

2010-05-09T20:54:00.004+08:00

exams are o.v.e.r!!!!

2010-04-29T02:16:00.003+08:00

EXAMS ARE LIKE OVER!! END OF YEAR 1!! WOOHOO :DD

alright and this marks the start of 4 months of holidayyyy :) there are soooo many things i wana do.. and i'll do them one by one :) sooooo much time yay :)

to ppl still having exams...

2010-04-11T21:15:00.003+08:00

realise that this is the kind of time, before exams, that i will think of random thoughts and stuff, just cos the brain dont feel like studying :D

from 1 of the random drama i watched the last time ( i always cant seem to complete any serials), someone said, love is like looking for the best stone. when you are already holding on to one, you have to let go of it before you can take the other. how true is that. and as humans, we would keep searching, thinking that we would get a better one later. that had quite a great impact on me.

but recently, from what i see, from ppl around me, i learn, that the keyword is to be contented.

when you are disgruntled, when you feel that you dun have what people have, you will always be unhappy. how about things that you have? it may be hard to see, but its there. cherish, or it would be gone before you know...

but i'm glad, and i'm happy with everything that is happening now, and all the stuff i have. studies may be sian, but i know they will be over soon. there may still be unhappy stuff, but time will solve it right? i guess so. and i hope so. what happened has already happened. stop brooding over them. now, its time to move on....

for the past 1 month...

2010-03-31T12:14:00.004+08:00

its been 1 month since i last posted! oh man ok i'm not that busy but just slacking, until xiuwen msn-ed me why i haben been posting. den i realised i still have a blog here!

life's been great. lesser of comm stuff (ie. no deadlines, but still had to take part in events). pace was slower, i got more time to prepare for tests, sleep slightly earlier. oh ya its been a test month, but its gonna be exams month next! =s

hall stuff, like round island eating trip,international night, hall apreciation dinner, run round spore, meetings etc etc had been keeping me busy for the month!!
long overdue meet up with esf at ntu sakae. a pity i could only be with them for a short while. more after exams!! =)
went for nusco concert. been very very long since i last met the co ppl!
and thanks to someone who had been with me through the happy and unhappy days (:
exams coming in the next month. moving out of hall in early may. its gonna be busyyyy!! so i guess the next update will be after exams :))

a really nice song...

over

2010-02-13T10:25:00.003+08:00

it had been the busiest ever 2 weeks. BIG BIG BIG sigh of relieve that its all over.

no more working til 3-4am everyday
no more rushing for deadlines
no more forcing my eyes open to get tut done
no more running everywhere to get the stuff
no more pulling hair when problems come up

v day sales for omc is over. i'm really relieved. everyone, like everyone in the comm would come up to me asking if i slept enough, tell me to rest well. with lots of ppl helping as well.

i'm glad all these happen though. cos i know i am stronger. definitely =)

i-n-c-r-e-d-i-b-l-e

2010-01-25T17:10:00.002+08:00

last week was incredible! i'm glad i went past another yet so busy week! =)

monday: prep for arts stuff to present during meeting. met up with the seniors to skrink the keychain and draw the folder. like an AC101 mod!

tues: doing keychains for sales in hall3. the idea just came the day before and we gathered ppl to help us. but the other biz mags were not ard. hoho. but glad i had a new found brother that night haha! changfei!

wed: internal garang guni, going ard to collect stuff fromt the blocks in hall. followed by meeting into late night....

thurs: coordinating of an omc job. discussing with the other biz mag of the catalogue for v day and doing it..

fri: went home after lecture. met some1 buy surprise on the way back! pure coincidence.. went home and over napped! almost late for usher job but luckily i received a life saving msg:) the usher job was so lame, just standing there to smile and pose like a statue. no dinner until 10+pm when we went newton food ctre for supper :D

saturday: teaching tuition, coming back hall to help move stuff to lorry. and went out for supper in the lorry!

sunday: the bomb. actual garang guni outside. shag ttm. weather super hot. my cgl went off halfway for soccer match. was left alone to lead the team... but the seniors and new made friends were really nice. 2 even came to ask if i need subcom ;) too bad biz mag no need subcom eh...
came back and edit v day catalogue till late....

yet another busy week ahead :)

1st week of school!

2010-01-17T13:15:00.001+08:00

its been an oh-so-tiring but fun week!

shifted back to hall on tues after the long holiday and boy, i cant get used to the bed here again! esp when i stupidly forgot to bring my blanket back after washing. dang! haha.
flyer distribution at the blocks outside school for our comm's garang guni. and i didnt realised i was paired up with the hall prince. lol! cos my cgl was having training.. it was fun yet scary when sometimes we have to split up to distribute in the ulu blocks. and of cos supper at extension where i discovered the oily but yummilicious oyster ommelette :)

wed was a short day, but not anymore since i got mps811 which means lessons in the afternoon.
walked back hal with edwin the funny senior who like to say things that are meant to be taken 'skin deep'. lol but he and pohshen sure helped a lot in the mod choosing stuff! slacked in hall and in the evening went to support huaming in his squash match. finally get to know better how the sports is played and we won! woohoo!
jogging with gerald after that. like since how long can! but stamina was cui ttm =x and then was the usual random chatting which ends up the day :)

friday met up with swiss clique and had ajisen for dinner. felicia as usual likes to whack ppl from the back :(, charlie ever so irritating, and goh sihui as act cute as ever! haha. and thanks to them for the belated bday celeb for me and sihui :)

and the weekend is spent in hall for omc! :)

yesterday was alumni night. tried out the stations, played around before the event started. was in charge of the beer mug station but basically its meant for ppl to win their chips there. after the event ended we went for supper at extension, again. laughing all the way and slept at like 2+... but ok la its just the 1st week of school :)

videoshoot today.. woke up quite late.. guess i look spas when doing the visa dance just now. haha. portfolio shoot later and then i need to go for tuition in the evening..

next week is no better.. internal and external garang guni, making of samples for v day sales... jiayou :)

new school term

2010-01-13T00:06:00.003+08:00

lessons officially starting tomorrow, or rather today, later at 8am.

and i'm really glad for that.

the 1month break was surprisingly more than enough. i did lots of things i wanted, and feel really light now. imagine, what i did in 1 month of holiday.

batam trip with hall ppl.
penang trip with family.
day and nightshoot for omc.
canvassing (teacher for origami, waitress, camp coach for a 3d1n camp).
meetup with friends (esf, njco, xiangling).
relax, and more relax.

and probably a lot more, happy activities. they were good enough for me to remember, and yet to forget the unhappy :)

now, i'm all prepped up for school. i promise,

to be a better student.
to sleep earlier, making late nights a more random thing to the best of my ability.
to prepare myself before lesson, printing my notes and hopefully some reading.
to enjoy my omc hall stuff, and do my best for it.

and there are plans for tomorrow. after lessons at 1230, i'll finish printing what i need for the week. call some companies for canvassing. probably over to src to support huaming's match. hopefully some tutorials when i'm free.

wow, i'm really satisfied with the schedule i have, thanks to the good break :):)

my first week of 2010

2010-01-09T20:57:00.004+08:00

its finally the end of the week. as i look back on all the stuff i did, i feel proud of myself. i made it!! (:

waitressing at shuang yuan on mon and tues.
photo still with shufen. it was an interesting experience. and definitely nice to work with a big group of ur frens. huihao and jieshi on monday night. fen, jac, huihao jieshi, keith on tues morning. better understanding of how the waiters feel like. thanks to our super nice lady boss, we got to try the nice food as well! 5 of the earlier shift ppl stayed to eat on monday, and it was much better with them around (:

nightshoot on tues night at lau pa sat.
thanks to sis for the makeup!! was very tired so couldnt really smile. hoped the photos turn out good.. and thats the pic of ppl in my OG. Yeak'm. HAHA! gotta work with them for the rest of the year till camp! and i was learning cheers for the whole night in preparation for camp the next day...

camp coach at st marg.
camp trainer. kinda of worried at first, but soon turned out ok. the girls sure know lots of cheers and were hyper. walked around lots of places with them at sentosa on the first day. shag! after that still went back school for meeting at night. after a few hours of sleep caught a taxi to take 174 at boonlay.. 2nd day was no better, dragon boating and i was initially dry, until our coordinator jeff came and poured a whole bucket of water on me! lol.. sentry duty at 4am at night. couldn sleep in the super cold hall without sleeping bag. haiz. oh ya i spelled it as century duty!! hahahaha.

i really couldnt put up a high energy level look cos i was too tired. didnt get to enjoy the camp fully... hope if there happens to be a next time, i can do it better!!

school starting next week!! :)

hello 2010!

2010-01-02T14:38:00.002+08:00

as usual, there should be some stuff to look forward to in the new year. what we call new year resolutions.

i want to be much more independent this year.
i want to balance my work and manage my time well.
i want to spend more effort and time on studies as well, though this sem could be hard becos its gonna be busy in omc..
i want to stand up for what i know i am right in. sometimes its about me too! no more tolerating and makes myself upset =/
i want to, as usual, spend time with my friends and family (:
i want to lead life happily, the way i want it to be (:

alright i might not be able to fulfil all, but at least i have sth to work along with. heh.

but before the whole year, i need to get pass next week 1st. ultra packed week of canvassing for fund.

wed-fri: camp coordinator for a sec2 outdoor camp!
sat: alumni night

2010's kicking starting on a really busy note (:

goodbye 2009!

2010-01-01T21:00:00.001+08:00

every year is special, so is 2009...

this year, half of it was led like an adult, out in the working world.. from an admin assistant in f&n coke to a recruitment consultant in RE, each were great experiences where i met wonderful ppl and learnt a great deal. it was through these i learnt to be more independent, and perhaps more courageous. life lessons learnt before i proceed on with my studies.

entered university with a bang. people in school and hall were all nice and made uni life much easier than expected.
of cos, keroro ppl, the bo tak cek gang. we always look out for one another, go for lunches and dinners tgt, print notes for one another, go to lessons together. of cos we shared lots of fun and laughter tgt. without them, i really have no idea how the sem would have been. i really hope that next sems and sems to come, there wouldnt be much changes to these, even though i know its going to be very hard...

hall omc ppl. with them, there is never-ending laughters. these ppl are just too fun and funny. lol! honestly speaking, i didnt think too much into anything. i just treat them as ppl i can really click well with and laugh tgt. i guess in near future i would really need them, when there is nth to do in hall or when i think, my room is too crowded, but yet do not want to be alone. i never expect things to take for a change recently, but i just hope all will turn out well in the end.

for friends, i made new ones, became closer to some old ones and drift off from others. i guess this is part and parcel of life, give and take, cos this is the limited time we can have.
yes 10 years of friendship with my roomie. well we all know, the only constant is change. from the start of the sem we were closer than before becos, after the jc period when we didnt really stay tgt, there was really a difference. we do basically everything tgt. go to school, meet keroro ppl, go for hall stuff, eat sleep shit tgt heh. and the smart her is always there to teach me. thanks for that! den towards the end of the sem, well there are some changes la. but i hope we can still stay as close as before..

and thats 6 years of frenship with sihui. looking back, i think we were childish. we just laugh like madness over small things. BUT, we just love it the way we were haha! and of cos, thanks to her for always being there to hear what i have to say, listen to my grumbles. thanks girl!! lets continue to enjoy next sem and the year ahead! =)

6 years of friendship with dear xiangling as well. sometimes its easy to forget the people when they are not around u. but its hard to forget this girl. she's always smiling when u see her and does sweet things as well. its not that we have endless stuff to say, but that even not saying anything, u woudnt feel awkward. thats hard to find isnt it. definitely more meetups to come, and hope she stays healthy always!!

6 years of friendship as well with the swiss clique. i was really shock when charlie, chuan fa and kevin came over to my hall during my bday to celebrate. it really feels good to have these ppl that care.. well charlie, i'll tell u more stuff next time if u come over and crash or sth. lol..

3 years of friendship with the girls in esf. still doing the random stupid stuff, but definitely more hthts since we are separated in different schools. and i'm glad yili and xiuwen are just in hall8, ppl whom i can get to see easily, and always welcome me. thanks girl, may the new year be a great 1 for us. and yes, more stayovers ;)

and last but not least, 3 years of friendship with the njco ppl. its hard to organise gatherings for so many ppl given the different schedules, and i'm 1 of the person always not present, but these nice ppl just dun bear grudges. and its just comfortable to be around them. thats good enough. more seniors leaving army and might see them in school :)

oh well, such a long post. coming sem gonna be a really busy 1. i hope i can manage well and breeze through it (:

2010 gonna be a good 1!!!

oh, its still xmas

2009-12-25T20:00:00.002+08:00

when i was about to sleep yst, i suddenly realised, oh no activities for xmas!

did a bit of shopping at amk hub after breakfast today with family and came back home to slack. ok i was supposed to sort de hundreds of photos of penang trip and pack de stuff at home and do xmas present+card for chalet and send some omc stuff but i'm just lazy. i just did a bit of packing and started looking at stuff in my gift storage box. new stuff in, and looking thru old stuff. presents from nj seniors, old photos, saw the journey with keroro cd from sherry as well..

end of the year is always a time to look back on everthing done in the year. so so many stuff happened in 2009. good or bad, happy or sad. people come and go, and inevitably things change. not emo, just feeling older.

my wish for xmas this year is still the same, to stay happy. be it me or ppl around me (:

merry xmas ♥

2009-12-25T00:34:00.002+08:00

its the season of joy again!

has been pretty busy since i came back from penang.. lazy to update though.. xmas party with keroro, sentosa with sisters and jiatian, night cycling with the njco ppl at the chalet, omc meeting, xmas lighting with family.. woohoo!!

more to come, ah yat lunch gathering with relatives, omc chalet, kbox with sihui and guys, countdown with esf, new year gathering with keroro. looking forward to all of them (:

busy happily.

2nd day was lots of eating as well, breakfast and lunch buffet. did water sports and the banana boat made me drank buckets of sea water but for the fun, its worth it! and pillow fight with shufen on the structure in the sea which made me screamed like, mad! and OMC just loved throwing ppl into the water. i guessed everyone was thrown into the sea/pool~ poolside bbq dinner was mega mega good! served by chef, nice music and yummy food! went for massage with the old girls at night and cant help but feel ticklish heh..

YES the whole night. amazing cos i would end up sleeping in chalets but not last night. lol. until like 7+ am we went can2 for breakfast and back to our halls to sleep. lol :)

trying to step out of the comfort zone, because its no longer a place i should be in..

studying :)

2009-11-21T15:47:00.003+08:00

end of 113 paper yst. declared a 1 day break for my poor brain that tried to squeezed the mechanisms in. after the paper yst i was in hall, washing clothes, sweeping the floor, clearing the table, watching videos on facebook. there is a sudden influx of touching videos that will make u tear recently. den later at night we went to celeb our omc president's birthday.... in the hall2 way. damn gross. thank goodness i'm not a guy. lol. hungry in the middle of the night, edwin drove us to extension for supper :)

decided to lock myself up in hall to study. spending the whole weekend here for the 1st time. woke up pretty late, facebooked, and here i am trying to do some maths. listenig to the album sihui gave me :) thanks goodness, cos i dun have a radio with me here and there is no online streaming as well.

i'm ok with being alone actually. back to the time when i studied for exams alone. at least for this kinda period of time. being alone makes me feel like i want to be productive, get down to serious work. i may grumble a lot, but seriously i know, i'm ok :)

11 days to go :)

finals:1 day end:14 days

2009-11-19T01:33:00.003+08:00

inspired by our dear miss ah goh goh (aka MAGG), i decided to note down my december schedule. its like... super packed. pls book in advance if u wana make an appt with me! haha!

reflections

2009-10-20T21:42:00.006+08:00

#1: its not easy.
saturday was spms photoshoot. me and shufen went over adm to find them since we are in hall... gerald was taking the photos for them and when it was turn to take the subcomm photo for publications he let me do it!! and i realised it really not as easy as u think. in the few seconds when your models are waiting for u to snap, you must make sure te angle is correct, the border is right, everyone is in the correct position, lightings is correct, ur hands dun shake because the camera is so heavy etc etc. it may be nice to look at the final product, but i think now i can better appreciate the effort behind it. having a good camera is not even halfway through to a good photo..

and this is a good person to look up to in this aspect- ah tong tong!!

#2: it takes time and effort.

relationships are hard to maintain. we need to put in time and most importantly the effort to do so.. cos if u put in effort u can squeeze ou time from ur buzy schedule, no matter wat.. so long as u want to..

anw this weekend was family time. saturday had ichiban with marg dad and mum. yay! like long since we last did that, but that had been a frequent thing for them =( sunday was imm shopping with the whole family. we went daiso nd they are already selling xmas stuff!! so cute =)

#3: more effort pls.

the previous tests werent good. ok i think quite bad la. and i conclude its not quality effort put in. i go in feeling ill-prepared, which is bad.. and i get sleepy spells whenever i open the notes and stuff. sian to the max. really need to work harder for the end of sem, which has such a high weightage... =(

jiayou!!

more to come

2009-10-17T13:03:00.004+08:00

end of PAP midterms this week, got back some papers, and more exams coming next week. maths and 111.

the happy thing for this week was sherry's birthday on thurs. had canadian pizza and mac ice cream in school:)
after physics midterms yst- demoralised, we went for a good treat for ourselves at dingtaifeng in jp :)

PS: please ignore the tags on my tagboard becos they are ALL written by gerald tong!!

its serious time to muggggggg!!!!!!

happiness is... having fun amidst mid term :)

2009-10-14T11:52:00.006+08:00

there is like midterms every week.. but i'm glad life's not just plain bored mugging...yet. haha :)

wat i did de past week...

oh ya i bought my new cam!!! panasonic LX3.. its semi pro!! loving de photos i took with it :)

end of recess week

2009-10-05T11:27:00.003+08:00

and so.. 1 week has passed..
so many things seem to have happen within this short week, leaving me with mixed feelings now..

didn do enough mugging. but i still hope i can pull through de 2 midterms this week.
met up with friends. keroro for games at settler's cafe followed by sparkles and mooncake at adm, njco ppl for sparkles at de park near danhong's house, OMC for makan fest yst and our curry chicken won de most delicious prize..
made a really important decision.. which ended all de guessing and thinking all this while. but i think i'm a weird person. u cant just leave me alone to think abt stuff. because i'll start to think abt every possible thing. den get scared. get mixed up. get worried. den i'll start to give myself reasons for everything. and its tiring and scary to do that. for now, i can only choose to believe in wat i feel...

this week faster pass too pls..

:)

2009-10-01T00:47:00.001+08:00

and this time, i decided to stop thinking so much... and go along with my feelings :)

updates

2009-09-28T19:33:00.005+08:00

RECESS WEEK IS HERE!

alrights it might be a week of mugging for mid terms, but there's still more life den that!

just a brief recap of stuff i did during the hiatus...

mugging!
113 had 2 graded test before recess week, esp de 7% 1, with lots of mechanisms and reactions to memorise. still rmb the late night mugging at macs. and we skipped 111 to study. and thats our room when we were doing last min revision.

alvin birthday celeb!
a long time since i last met up with the njco ppl. and we went to vivo to celebrate alvin's birthday. minghan brought his dslr and he was like just trying to shoot spas photo la haha! looking forward to more meetups with them :)

gerald's 22nd birthday!
yay we celebrated with a bbq at sihui's house :D preparation took less than a week and most of the stuff we manage to get them done on the day itself. super impromptu. we also forced every1 to come in pink! yay yay the guys (except gerald) had to try really hard to stick to the dress code. but the turnout was great (abt 98% of keroro went haha!) and we had fun chatting till lke midnight, and de hall ppl plus edwin continued at rulong's hall till morning!

visiting xiangling!
a long time since me fen and xiangling last met up. we laughed and joked around, and i hope things will just stay de way it is always... anw we played with the kid that xiangling's mum was taking care of. super cute. but she's scared of my braces:( anw hope everything is fine for xiangling!! :)

hall2 night cycling!
1st night cycling i ever joined with omc 10/11 :) we went over can13 for dinner 1st before registration and the korean food was good! we started at ecp, went bedok tamp den back to ecp. it started out really funny, chatting along the way and the guys trying to corner me cos i'm not a pro cyclist. lol. but it started to get really tiring, or rather every1s butt was aching like nobody's biz! damn bad. there were super many food stops la omg the fats gained > burnt :(

suppers and impromptu meetups!
me and fen had been going for suppers and impromptu meetups with, the usual group of ppl.. yst i was at my cousin's house mahjonging (of which i lost 60cents!) when shufen called and in the evening, we found ourselves in bugis! lol... had nice food and desserts though! :)

sat- mid autumn celeb with njco ppl...

woohoo looking forward! :)

friends

2009-09-21T23:30:00.003+08:00

i always think its fate, for 2 ppl to meet amongst the crowd, the many many ppl in the world, and become friends. especially the kind of friends whom you can talk with regarding everything under the sun.

these few days i have this encounter, with 2 different friends.
1 of them was somebody whom i'm this close to losing. someone whom we used to talk a lot and a lot, but now, we can no longer talk like before. i feel like always standing outside the circle. but i tried. my best to step in. but everytime i feel like i'm pushed out again. and this kind of feeling is really bad. i'm really disappointed with how things turn out to be.

another friend is some1 really close to the heart. we never fail to end up laughing, and thats how happy we were tgt. but because of how far we are always apart, we start to lose contact... until that day when she told us she was just discharged from hospital, and told us not to worry abt her. and the thing is, i dun even have her home contact, her house address. i didnt know wat she have been doing for the past few months, not to say how she spent her week in the hospital. it was heart breaking to hear her weak voice over the phone. no more laughing, couldnt even find energy to smile.

and thats how lousy a friend i am.

instead of taking time to treasure ppl i have around me. what have i been doing? what have i been busy with? bothered abt a friend who cant be bothered abt me?

i'm feeling really upset now. like long since i felt this way.

and i hope she really gets well soon.

Hall 2 DnD~ Twisted Fairytales!

2009-09-16T22:15:00.005+08:00

ok after so long, i'm finally posting the photos taken for my hall's Dnd@ Novotel Clarke Quay. The theme was twisted fairytale and my OG decided to dress up as black hercules! :D ok let the photos do the talking!

1stly, take a look at me and my dear neighbour! fen and gina's og is twisted schooltales so they cross-dressed as ah bengs! oh man..
with the girls in my OG.. we were so pretty that day in our black toga! shiying the pageant contestant was very pretty too ;)
the guys.. they kept saying they were very cold haha! oh and my buddy is the pageant contestant! he looks really good that day lol :)
with the guys in fen's og. i'm now the fren of jakas man cos i know most of them already. and the guys crossed dressed as ah lian omg. so chio! (note: the super tall guy is my sp! 1.92m national basketball player. he's still so tall despite bending down already. lol!)

thats all!
full lecture day tml!

and i think, i've finally sorted things out within myself :)

2009-09-14T13:47:00.001+08:00

the harder i try, the more tiring it gets...

090909!

2009-09-10T19:47:00.005+08:00

i bet everyone has been talking about the 9th of sept 09 yst. it was really special cos its my first time living in hall, and on this special day, i celebrated it with a group of special ppl, whom i know for only 1 month but felt like years...

actually there was nth special, lecture in the morning afternoon, dinner with RE friends at jurong point followed by grand debrief of all de hall committees (they discussed abt ALL the events organised for de year during the meeting.

but i insisted that its not any other day so rulong, gerald and sherry who stay in hall cum eugene our chauffeur decided to take me and fen out. lol. they waited till our meeting end and off we went to mount faber to lax chill. the view there was not bad and we talked about things like going overseas since there are these arrows pointing to different directions. den we went over to henderson waves. super alot ppl despite being like midnight already.

after that we drove over to the prata stall beside fong seng and we had 1 plaster and 1 plain prata each at like 230am! madness. came back hall and caught a few hours of sleep before the morning lecture. shiok ah!

give me some time and i think i'll be abe to get over everything. keeping busy is a good way to shun away from thinking unnecessarily.
Ground 0, let's start all over again. this time, hope no one get hurts.

in hall this weekend..

2009-09-04T20:49:00.005+08:00

this weekend would be spent mostly in hall.. overnight tonight cos there is maths make up lecture tml!! 3 hours.. but nvm we are having Macdonalds breakfast before that :D

anw today when we stepped out of our room for lecture fen spotted this on our door. LOL done by my hall OG ppl. so nice rite!

after lessons me and fen decided to try out the washing machine here for the 1st time, since we have very little time to go home this week. but we only washed the hall clothes. and its not bad. me fen and sihui were like 3 xiang ba laos figuring how to use the washing machine and looking at it start to wash. LOL.

the point is that after we hang out the clothes we realised how colourful is mine and how dull is fen's. HAHA!

mine..
fen's..

ok hall DnD tml! :)

and seriously i feel like i'm not like myself these 2 weeks. i realised its been a long time since i'm like that, since sec school it think.. and i start to feel how childish i am, how i think too much and look too much into certain things. and sometimes, i do get irritated with myself, for not being able to handle my own emotions well.. aww

i hope after everything, i'll learn to be more mature.

hello!

hall life has been pretty happening, sleeping at 2 almost everyday. but strangely i can still look forward to going for lessons, i think cos of the wonderful keroro peeps =)

monday is my most free days, with lab on alternate weeks. this monday i had no lessons and went back school early to get my lab coat. it was my first time taking 199 and i didnt know where to alight. luckily i met a super helpful girl who even wanted to send me to the bookshop even though she was running late for her lecture! of cos i declined and made my way there myself. but after that i got lost! and carrying super lots of barang barang i walked to my fren's hall! oh man.

after all de sweating finally met up with de rest and went to sing k at jurong safra. a pity sihui and mel left early and we forgot to take pic =( anw sihui and eugene are madness power vocals. they are just just just, good. and eugene can sing jap seriously!!

me eugene and jasper..

me and my roomieeee! best buds for 9 years and counting.....

after that at night we had hall orientation camp committee interview. and i got into de biz manager. ok quite looking forward to it. think its gonna be really happening!

tuesday we had lessons and dinner at can2 with, de dinner clique just formed. lol. just that we few ppl often hang around for dinner. and had jcrc interview after that. didnt get into this 1 but i think omc will keep me super alive in hall already! after that went over to de aircon hall 3 to teach ah long maths. haha cos de poly guys really very ong not in touch with these stuff i think. so yup after that he sent us back hall and HTHT! lol actually more of him telling us stories la..

wednesday went over to yili and xiuwen's room in the morning to visit. hall8 is really near my hall! ok catch up a bit and xiuwen has to go for her lessons so me and yili came over to can2 for value breakfast. lol den she went shopping at nanyang supermart and bought some stuffs. she shopped for really long! den she come over to chat chat before going back to prepare for lecture.
at night, eugene drove over to study. haha. he taught us how to plot graph with excel and den we went over to ah long's room again (for de air con!) to mug physics and do de tut. fen was teaching us cos she was de only one that took physics. lol. and we mug till like 1am before eugene drove us back to hall.

today night there was inter wing games and we played captain's ball. after that went for hall og steamboat at block1 lounge. den gerald msg us that he is jogging and can come visit us. so he came over and it was more HTHT! lol but i think its de same, he was telling us lots of stories. heh.

ok time to sleep. spms bash tml! =D

sidenote: the roomies bought room keys identity at de bazaar! its xmas everyday! =))

1st week of school

2009-08-15T16:58:00.000+08:00

blogging in a drowsy mode, cos i just woke up from sleep after eating my med. stupid persistent coughing means i went to de doc again this morning. 2nd time in a week :(

1st week of school was great. better den expected. hall life is sure eventful. supper on de 1st night i moved in with the hall OG. squeezed into the cars and went to the fav supper hangout of the hall ppl. hall bash at zouk was not bad too. mixed vodka doesnt make me feel wobbly. tried super lots of combi haha. steamboat with the keroro peeps are just as fun as can be. i think the feeling of meeting with them reminds me of njco. fun peers and seniors:) visiting de different halls of our OG mates gave us mixed feelings. chunhong's hall 5 is really uber cui like a factory! but ah long's hall3 is mega shiok ah! with air con and environment is like a condo. after steamboat we got into de seni0rs' car and headed to his room for HTHT. lol! i think more of him telling us his police stories. heh. i also love HTHT with fen and dearerst neighbour gina!! hahaha more to come :)

anw lectures this week is ok. cos me, shufen and sihui has been hanging out tgt with the keroro ppl, for lunch, lessons, talks etc. i see super smart and hardworking ppl around us and studying shouldnt be too bad i hope! :)

i think i'm too wobbly to go anywhere now.

shall go rest again now!

blogging from hall

2009-08-10T18:12:00.003+08:00

hello!

the past 2 weeks was rather shag with camp marathon of faculty and hall camps. but its all over now, with a whole list of new friends in facebook as well as refreshed in a new environment. yup i'm in hall. shufen is sleeping so i shall just take de long time i have to blog.

university life started officially with a blast-- spms camp. a big coincidence for me and shufen sihui to be in the same OG- keroro. yes a funny name. but i knew its going to be good when we were reporting at sembawang mrt station, cos de girls are such nice ppl to talk to.

our group wasnt those super mega enthu kind, but i think we pretty much enjoyed our pace, getting to know each other more. HTHT with hidden names only for us to know and for others to guess in the midnight. and we never get tired listening to mel's uber cui chinese, competing against the next most jia kan tang gerald. and clarissa has the strange power to make ppl laugh with her words and actions. and of cos, every1 had a unique character of their own, say chio bi bi. LOL. me shufen and sihui just dun get tired imitating aunty lucy. i think we are just mad. the SAs are just a humorous bunch of ppl who never fail to make u laugh until u are rolling on the floor. HEHE.

i would say the camp was really great. and i love my OG KERORO

tired, i went for hall camp the following day after breaking camp.

it was totally different. i dunno but the ppl there are more happening. maybe because the ppl fit closely to the stereotype, spms is more studious and hall2 more sporty. and maybe because we dun study the same courses so the topic of discussion is much more different. a lot of them from NBS and i like to hear their camp stories, cos its much more diff from spms. and the guys are really funny too. rmb de 1st night HTHT, we ran out of topic and even went on to the primary school we studied in. u have no idea how funny the guys make it sounds out to be. the whole camp was very well done up, maybe tempo abit slower la. but clearly, much effort is put in. de fright night is 1 good eg. i really freaked out but luckily they separated it to different segments so it is not that scary. and i think its really good to know de ppl that i'l meet super often like for de rest of the year.

yup JASH tml. who's going?

ok i have no idea wat else to say. i'm waiting for fen to wake up for dinner.

anw i wana sing de song, "we love the mamas deep down in our hearts x2, and deep deep down down deep down in our hearts!" heh. they came on saturday to help us clean the room, and toilet. i mean we did the job too but it was much faster with their help la. and i would say more clean. now our room is super cosy, stocked up with all de food and necessities. yay!

1st day of school tml. may it be a good start! :)

campsss

2009-07-27T23:37:00.001+08:00

there is sth wrong with blogger at my house coms so i cant really blog these few days. its slightly better now but still cant post pic.. arghhh

going for camps starting tml. faculty camp tml till saturday. and hall camp on sunday to next friday. i can imagine how tired i would be. i hope they will be fun cos i am totally too lazy to move now. used to just lazing around at home. haha!

cya!

with the girls!

2009-07-20T18:56:00.007+08:00

friday night we had a s24 gathering at ps cafe cartel. the turn out was quite good, 11 girls showed up. we sat there and talk about a lot of things, esp uni stuff that is. audrey and sarah's camp sounds really fun. but the fact that i will be having consec 2 weeks of camp makes me feel tired already!

with diva chai! finally a decent photo after like 2 years. haha :)

saturday was the long awaited cycling trip with the girls! the weather was great and we cycled from changi jetty down to east coast. erm i didnt reach east coast yet cos i had to leave earlier.

well i was grumbling the whole way i think. of this overly healthy outing. haha! we couldnt really chat on the bike only took lots of photos, sing "nobody nobody but u!", shout and scream when the planes fly past and eating the flying aeroplanes :)

at the jetty, the only photo with our bikes!

at 1st we were separated into 2 groups. due to muthu who was soooo slow, making xw and xj wait for her.

the faster group

and the slower group.

there was this super duper long path along the track that planes take off. like never ending. we rested along the way and of cos, more photos!

i like this pic the most!

when we are happy, we jump

(but muthu seems more like crawling in the air)

den we continued cycling all the way, until we reached china, and cycled along jiu zhai gou before stopping at huang he. and decided to take more photos there before i leave.

formal!

and lots of informal!

ending off with the photo of the friendship band claire bought for us from the world of powdered cakes!

cabbed from changi to turf city as i was running late for uncle's dinner treat. but it was TOTALLY WORTH IT. from abalones to oyster to the mega big and ex crab and normal stuff like prawns. omg was totally full pls.

thanks to sihui for de dvd! watching boys over flowers now. haha i think its really more shiok to watch on tv. definitely can finish the whole series this time! :)

eng family photoshoot

2009-07-16T16:25:00.009+08:00

i'm glad i have finally started on things i want to do. successfully went jogging yst and cleaned up the house today (fold+iron the clothes, sweep+mop the floor). woohoo and now i shall blog abt the family photoshoot on sunday!

here's just a few out of the 100+ that we took. so nice right! we had lots of fun too. woohoo! :)

hello world

2009-07-15T14:34:00.002+08:00

i woke up today from a series of weird dreams
and wonder what i need to do today
nothing is a MUST to do
they can be pushed back to tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow
or even next week

when i had to work
i always wanted to slack like everyone else
to just laze around for the rest of the holiday before school term starts
but it seems to be hard
cos i am just lethargic to get anything started
to clean the house
to start a show online
to blog with the photos
to go for a run/ swim
and i just lie on the sofa
feeling plain bored

and pls, this is only the 1st day
2 more weeks of rest
i should be enjoying it!!

updates updates

2009-07-14T15:37:00.013+08:00

its the official start of the supposedly slack week without work.

yst went for med checkup. yes la ppl i'm starting school in NTU chem and biochem, just in case u ppl are still unaware of. so me shufen and sihui -- the fellow coursemates, went for the checkup tgt in the morning. we were armed with a map but still managed to get lost in the buildings. heh. anw thanks to sihui's mum who drove us there. besides the free ride i got a free meal too! treat from sihui mum at jp ding tai feng. but goh sihui dun forget we are going on another treat from me next week! :)

today morning we went to the cck columbrium. the 'shifting house' of ah gong from the cemetry to the columbrium due to the clearing of land. the procedure was quite long and its the first time i saw it.

ok anw lots of things were happening the past few weeks, here's some of them..

1) True Yoga

(photos credit to true yoga web)

2 weeks ago on saturday me and shufen went for a free trial of hot yoga at True Yoga in pacific plaza. Well it means yoga in a 37degree celsius room. it was still ok at the start but as u did the yoga movements u really start to sweat like siao. and i am inflexible to the max! oh no. my muscles really ached like nobody's business pls! i recommended the esf girls for the trial too, hope yili xw and claire enjoyed themselves!

after a resting and taking a shower there we went on our search for LJS breakfast cos i was craving for it. and we went all the way to cine cos there was no breakfast at shaw. and after that was GSS shooooopping:) the 2 of us totally forgot abt the tiredness aft the yoga. and i finally got my mango jeans!

2) Charlie's bday celebration

later in the evening went to meet the clique at jp new york new york for charlie's birthday celebration. the food was seriously... not good. oops. but they made it up by giving us free candy floss!! we love candy floss! erm maybe change the we to i. haha! charlie was being very spastic and stupid throughout the meal. photos up on facebook. too unglam dun wana put here. LOL.

anyways we tried taking formal and informal shots but the formal 1s always failed thanks to the not-so-good photog skills f the svc crew.

3) Clarice's birthday celebration

the following day, sunday, went down plaza sing after tuition to meet the njco ppl for clarice's briethday celeb. shared earthquake with some ppl INCLUDING JOSON, who had a fever the following day and confirmed h1n1 2 days later. haha but i think he recovered without passing it to any1. anw there justin jie jie joined us cos the cat high boys were in swensens as well. so it was the usually chatting ard, birthday song singing and eating etc.. hope the bday girl enjoyed it and the present!

4) Sis's commencement day

on wed was sis's convocation day. took half day leave to go down for her post ceremony celeb. went to plaza sing 1st to make a grad bear for her from build a bear. wanted to get the forever frens bear but it was like soldout islandwide. omg. so had to settle for the next best alternative. i think its quite funny, they try to get u involved in all the steps of making the bear, but some was quite childish. i think more suitable for kids. or zi high kids. lol.

took some photos and went down to turf city ah yat for her grad cum bday celebration. went home and continued with the photo takings :)

5) Photoshoot at botanic garden

last sunday after tuition went down to botanic garden for a big family photoshoot followed by tian1 ji1 feast at geylang. we took lots of really really nice photos cos ah hong bro was using his mega good dslr. i'm totally loving good quality photos!! thats a lot of photos so i shall leave them to tml!

1 of the pic that is so cute, taken using a fisheye :)

i need to go cut my hair!
and i got a lot a lot more to do!!!!

before that i shall go and complete my tuition homework for tml..

the happiest re day

2009-06-26T21:24:00.005+08:00

and today was probably the happiest day that i had at work!
[even though 1 candidate went MIA, 1 candidate "lao sai" (omg thats so crude of him to use this word. gross.) and couldn come for interview] haha!

today i closed 1 contract staff for starhub and 1 perm staff for SICC. both are fresh ORD IT people. thats more pocket money earned.

the thing is the perm staff. he looked really good in his resume photo. and his resume was super well written i think. and after some consideration between our client and another company, he chose to accept our offer! i was super excited since yst. oh ya we had temp outing on thurs. 10 temps and out of which only i am still working in RE. heh. and we had dinner at BigO and went over fareast for ice dessert.

oops i side tracked. ok so i told every1 i am finally going to shang4 bang3 today. in RE, u get 22bucks for contracts case closed and $10 for perm, but u can write your perm sales on the board and ring the bell. den every1 will clap for you. i was soooo happy cos i was closing contracts all along. no shang4 bang3 feels like not working in RE before lor!

so today the guy went to sign the LOA and initiated to come pay the intro fee. and i got to ring the bell though the sales was not a lot la. when he reached he was like so happy and half bowed saying thanks for my help. omg i was like bowing back. LOL. and he asked if he can used netts or visa to pay the IF. but of cos cant! so he went downstairs atm. the fee was $53.50 but he didnt have change so kept asking me to keep the change. i insisted and went out to get the change of cos. and before he left he stuff a box of royce choc to me! i kept saying nooooooo but he said pls pls and went off. omg. i was so shocked i forgot to give him the receipt! so i chased out. oh man.

when i went back every1 was like "OHHHHHH" when they saw the choc. haha cos the past candidates didtn give them that. and they felt that the guy was good looking haha. so the choc became out team's tea break. totally no mood to work after that. my teamlead ask me to offer the choc to our director. and i did. she say she heard abt it and the candidate must be very satisfied with my service. heh. 1 consultant asked if i have a sense of job satisfaction, and indeed i have! (not just because the guy was shuai4 ok!)

and so, working in RE is not that bad after all :)

great weekend

2009-06-22T22:14:00.003+08:00

the last weekend was as usual, great!

saturday morning the family went over to get some documents and procedures for my university funds done, followed by a nice Mac breakfast and shopping at causeway point. omg the GSS is here, more shopping needs to be done! haha!!

den met up with xiangling and shufen for a lunch meetup. crazy xiangling insisted on treating us cos we treated her the last time for her birthday. had pastamania and the usual talking of everything under the sun. we had a nice time chatting while having pasta and bubbletea at sweet talk. past by a vcd stall and we stood there watching "Shi Wan Ge Wei Shen Me!". oh man and all the childhood memories came back! We promised to next meet up at me and shufen's hostel where we will have our room warming with xiangling :)

parted with them and took a bus to east coast. the trip was crazily long. i slept and woke and daydreamed and slept and stoned for the 1+ hour journey. and the bus stop was quite far from where the co ppl were! meichen came late taking the same bus and she walked the wrong direction somemore. think she walked super super long..

met up with the njco ppl. omg it was like 580 years since i saw lerxian, 320 years since i saw jinxian. and the 1st time seeing joson in not-very-botak hair as well! the army boys were mad. they dug a 1m deep whole! like those that they sit in to fire during army i think. it became a tourist attraction and sooo many ppl came over to take photo with it. before we could do that, some malays came and filled the hole:( most of the boys went to ride bike while i relived my childhoood memory again-- playing with sand! haha just happen to see the stuff while searching the storeroom for the frisbee.

initially liyana nd danhong were playing too! but they soon became too bored to continue. i tried really hard to make a sandcastle but man, it was soooo difficult. i gave up after making this.

after that was some chit chatting on the mat, eating the food that they bought earlier at shing shiong. it was super funny when they keep saying the colourful biscuits are bai4 chen2 biscuits.. later in the evening the sky was dark and looked like it was going to rain, so we had to pack up and leave for parkway parade for dinner. Danhong and jiahao left earlier and we forgot to take photo tgt :/

anyway parkway parade was super big. me and meichen were totally zihighing in there. haha esp when we saw her future workplace, Da Bao TCM clinic. LOL! and we had ajisen ramen for dinner. jinxian sure has lots of stories to tell, and the guys educated me and meichen more abt army stuff. haha.

photos outside ajisen!

i'm so missing chi fan sessions!!!!

mini e6 gathering

2009-06-14T17:49:00.004+08:00

and it was a mini swiss gathering yst. mini cos basically its made up of the clique and xinyi's clique. not complete somemore. haha!

in the afternoon my cousin came over claiming that he is bringing with him the most fun toy. and its true! u just stand on the thing, and it will move when u slightly tilt the handle to the front back or any direction. i almost lose track of the time to meet the ppl for party world. so he let me ride it to the bus stop and super a lot of ppl were looking at me pls. and i played with it the whole sunday afternoon just now. the max speed is 20km/h. super fast and fun. u can switch it to the tortoise mode also which is like max 12km/h

u can see it in the movie "mall cop". sis says sentosa has it on rent as well

den was meeting sihui, xinyi, charlie, chuanfa and kevin at civics centre party world. the promo is over so each of us spent like $21+ but it was still fun! can hear sihui's solid singing, singing lessons really make a difference can! and xinyi's singing is really high all the way man! well charlie can only sing at the top of his voice and irritate others. HAHA kidding kidding!

oh ya we sang 我问天 de fujian song as well. totally zi high. and we only know how to sing the chorus pls. "我问天, 我问天!" heh!

in the evening szesian, seokhoon, jac and zihui, aikuen came to join us for dinner at pastamania. it was great catching up with ppl i havent met more like, more than 2 years! omg we count in years man thats really long long long! more meetups pls!

with sihui, the rich girl going eastern europe on tuesday. pls dun forget me hor *hint hint* haha!

with zihui aikuen and xinyi. the old sec school frens....

after dinner sihui and chuanfa went off 1st. the rest went to arcade to walk around. me and charlie saw this new stimulator and decided to try it. we just sit in the car and the thing will move with the roller coaster film. wind will blow out from dunno where cos the film that we chose was in like a mountain cave. the 2 of us were super zi high pls. i guess we are the ppl who shouted the loudest of all who took the ride. and my palms were sweating. LOL.

the thing is the ride is 4 buck and charlie refused to take my money even though he is like earning 60cents per hour in army. haha! and it was not nice shoving that $2 note around. so ok let him treat but drinks on me next time hor!!!

looking forward to the next gathering. and wii session at sihui's house after she comes back! :)

time out!

2009-06-06T22:48:00.002+08:00

time to take a break after the week. well i have been doing that every weekend la just that this time its spent with the family :)

early in the morning went to lavender ICA to collect mum and marg's passport. den we went to bugis for some shopping and pray at the guang yin temple. Goodness there were super a lot of ppl there! and the lots of ppl taking photo outside the temple. think they caught me on camera! haha.

along the way we bought like super lots of food. from bo luo bao and egg tarts to cream puffs. beard papa is seriously nice! we dropped by a gui ling gao specialist stall and went in for a rest. it was soooo bitter! until mum was like filling the spoon with half with the gui ling gao and half is the honey syrup. lol. but i have to say u will feel really good after eating it. and marg had cough and sore throat so mum bought "ku cha" for her also. omg i can imagine how bad it was cos i always feel like vomitting drinking those things..

we made our way to the new iluma as well. goodness the escalator that brings you up the 4th storey from the 1st is scary... and there is very very few ppl there despite bring a saturday. the food area on the 4th storey has a great variety of food! there was this shabu shabu buffet at a jap restaurant and we were so tempted to try it! but we ate so many things already, not in a good state for buffet so just add a mental note for it. we will be back!

lunch time we went to bugis junction for xiao long baosssss cos mum was craving for it...

us with the xiao long baossss :)

we continued shopping in bugis until late afternoon when dad met us for dinner at our fav bbq stall. i must say the bbq stuff is getting too spicy!

it was a long day. but shioook ah! :)

oh and yes i'm super looking forward to the sec school class gathering on saturday :)

be happy

2009-06-04T22:08:00.003+08:00

its getting a little stressful at work these few days. when u hear "offered!" but not your candidate's name. and not sending enough CVs. and not able to find ppl to call.

so i realised i will eat A LOT. or stare at space. or just rot on the sofa when i get home. or close the door and not realised that it hit my head until i hear the bang and feel the pain. OUCH!

haha ok i am getting a little exaggerated, cos i still chat with shirley while i use the com and she look at her resumes. or go toilet with pauline. or ask pearlyn how many CVs she sent and grumble that i cant find ppl.

but anw, wat i am envious is, ppl are going on holiday! audrey duqian just came back from the land of yan ya lun taiwan, sis is in USA and just went Disneyland, claire is going to the land of powdered cakes goldilocks (pls dun get me that. i want souveneirs!), sihui is going EE OMG! i shud plan 1 after my contract ends, just before uni for a few days. but not bad i am going to the land of durians this sunday. LOL. yes i'm going malaysia for a durian feast and i'm so looking forward to that.

after the long page of ranting, the point of my photo (jiaxin's pic which is so cute totaly made my day just by looking at it- koped from jiatian's blog). omg i'm like so lookng forward to penang trip this year end!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

saturdays are meant to be fun ;)

2009-05-24T23:02:00.002+08:00

for the whole week, was busy at work in RE. no cases closed but quite a lot of interviews i would say. anw a filipino guy of mine was offered on fri evening. so should be able to close by mon. yes tt would be great.

fast forward to the more interesting stuff.
audrey and duqian gave me a shock 1 fine morning when i was in mrt going to work. they were calling from airport before their flight to tw and hk. oh my tian so envy them! they were like highing thru the phone haha. guess they are enjoying the trip now!

went to SMU biz tea session on fri evening. actually go for fun de lor. i knew wat they were going to say. heh. and i went alone. glad i made a new fren there, Estelle from nyp. we are in the exact same boat omg. so we had lots to chat abt. thru the session to mrt.. she hasnt msg me so it means she have yet to decide on uni choice as well!

saturday morning went to NUS to meet claire bear for the science open house. not tea session anymore cos no tea was served! ok they gave the 2 of us 'lao kok' dousa bun but gave others high tech yeast bread. well anw the point is that life sci looks 10x more interesting than chem. and after all the sessions i went, i just felt that all schools are equally good :( its not helping pls.

after that hungry us had lunch at this mega bites cafe or sth like tt. the system was weird and we have no idea wat on earth was the short short waitor talking abt. the food was not bad for its price with quite big servings just that there is more room for improvements. lol.

after that took the train down cine to look for sihui. ok i only get a glimpse of her before she went into the big room for the compeition. it must be fun la.. hope she is shorlisted! i want free lunch =D
after that went to meet the RE temps for gathering cum celebrating pauline's bdae at mind cafe. actually all of them are ex-temps except me, pauline and william. so i was quite scared it would be awkward. but NO. they are all funny and fun-loving ppl. easy to chat and make frens with. i spent the whole afternoon laughing non stop i tell u, until almost teared. the guys are tooooo funny!! we played quite a lot of games, esp this 1 called repeat pete. it killed 100000 of my brain cells because at 1 time we were supposed to rmb more than 30 actions! and ugly ugly was really violent can!

and i heard the many many stories abt the temps. like super temp owen, the super smart guy going to medicine. clarice he's going to be your course mate! and kenny who quit after 10 days, how fierce the perms were in the past.... and wanxuan, the temp before me which i took over was super nice as well! she shared with me some tricks to do the job better as well!

after the guys left we went to plaza sing for some girls talk and ice cream at gelare. amazing how easy it is to talk with them abt almost everything, from uni to RE stuff to the future and school.......... definitely an enjoyable session. well ppl who RE chose are definitely not those shy shy ppl i would say!

thats abt all, week starting again! and sis is goin america this tues..

happening saturday!

2009-05-17T18:05:00.004+08:00

a busy saturday makes me really tired but happy at the end of the day ;)

1st in the morning was meeting sihui to go for the cbc tea party. blur me alighted at the wrong station. and sihui's mum kindly came to pick me up. we met toh xinyi, the girl who used to sit with me during sec 3 and 4 and gave a a 2 year nightmare. LOL just kidding. her looks and appearance didnt change much but definitely 500times funnier. or is it because she phrase it funnily without laughing herself. u have no idea how entertained me and sihui, or perhaps fen and her fren was. omg laughing the whole morning made me quite exhausted. heh.

jokes aside, the cbc building was really new. due to the fact that it was just completed last year. yes a good time to think of which school to go to now that i have all the offers. omg i think smu really dun look at the essay and compre when they accept their students. lol.

after that sihui's parents sent me to the mrt station again. thanks to them i was in time to get to the cathay to meet the co ppl for movie. well only me , danhong, alvin, shijun and shihao who came duper late.

was really excited to watch angels and demons. cos the last movie da vinci code was so interesting. overall it was quite nice but predictable. i was so proud of myself that i can guess the real culprit in the middle of the movie lo! dun believe ask danhong. haha!

den went to arcade. seems like a must go place everytime. and bishi bashi again. i seriously waste money la. play a few games and hands damn pain. not that i want to la... will just whack the machine cos its so exciting.
oh ya and thanks to sis for passing me the camera at dhoby gaut!

walked to city hall to meet S09 for class gathering. met minghan on the way! yes his head is really like so small as described by the others. due to the botak head.

last event was S09 class gathering at Raffles City Shokudo.

the food was so-so i would say, but its the talking with the people that makes it nice! well here's the pics of the desserts and the access card..

quite a lot of us went, i would say. and we hanged around from 6+ in the evening to 9+ at night... quite amazing that there is every1's photo with their food in my cam!

and some cam whoring amidst the chit chatting session! i think jieying ying looks really comical in the photo. and i would name mk and xw's photo as "beauty and the beast". apt isnt it? haha!

thats all for the day. get the photos here!

the week of birthdays

2009-05-14T21:07:00.006+08:00

the past week was filled with lots of birthday celebrations..

1st of all last tues was xx's birthday.. we went to her house to surprise her. forget to bring lighter so we ask all the ppl who pass by. but they ignore us! omg so unfriendly. in the end we went to her house without the candles. lol.talk crap and watched the last episode of a show. is it DIE? sth like tt. but was super lame. yup so that was the day..

the next day was jc syf. so sad i didnt get to go.. but we still got GOLD! good for them. at least the hard work put in were paid off. felt really happy for them. heart was beating super fast when they msg me that the result was going to come out. was like keep telling shirley about the news when they told me that they got gold. haha. so after that was celeb at fish n co glass house. as usual la.. but its fun talking to danhong and jiahao. LOL.

saturday lunch was birthday celeb for chuanfa and kevin with the clique. lunched and cake at subway jurong point. happy birthdy to the 2 guys! yes we talk and talk and shop around. arcade and i realised i super waste money. imgine i could only play like 2 games with the same amt of money tt sihui can play like 5 or 6 games? plus hit until my hand pain la! i cant hit gently lor omg its so jin zhang!!! oh ya and saw wei zhe! he came over to say hi so suddenly. lolZ.

after that at night was dinner xiao long bao with shufen! belated birthday celebration. i realised my cash was running low so went to withdraw. and wat the, there is this non aircondition posb filled with KLK! almost suffocate there. but when we went back jp we realised we can use nets in crystal jade. plus there is a air-conditioned dbs bank la! omg totally heartache.

anyways we still had the bdae dinner treat by me for shufen. xiao long bao as requested by her. also celebrating our 10th year anniversary! lo as friends la. omg how many 10 years can we have in our life?? we just spent 1 of it tgt. heh.

thats us! 10 years of friendship and counting on!!

the food. we had 2 plates of xiao long bao! PPL PLEASE DUN EAT THE DAN DAN MIAN! it peanut butter sauce la! omg eat until super ni4. lucky we had wanton noodles to neutralise it. and a plate of guo tie make me feel really like a carnivore. duper full after that..
i insisted on taking this pic. evidence leh! haha :)

after that we went bakerzin to da bao cake. cos we were too full to eat there. choc cake to wrap up the day!

sunday was mother's day cum marg's bdae celebration at unique seafood. mother's day so the place was super packed. lucky i reserved seats 1 week before. service compromised so not as good as usual. but we still managed to entertain ourselves with the camera;)

the food! super a lot.... crabs, oyster, prawns etc.. the weird weird snail looking thing is the worst lor. too hard to chew..

us with dearest mum on mother's day!

ok last but not least was marg's birthday this tues. went to get the pre-ordered cake from bakerzin after work. thats the good thing of working in town i guess. if i work in tuas i wont be able to do that. lol. ok but the cake was really super nice!

new job, new life

2009-04-19T20:43:00.003+08:00

a new update at my blog seems to be a time tracker- its yet another week...

the new job at recruit express was certainly a GREAT EXPERIENCE. couldnt really get used on the 1st few days, cos its totally different from FNCC. fast paced, formal attire, lots of talking, listening and talking on phone, quite stressful. and they throw to you everything, expecting you to know. thanks to the other temp shirley sitting next to me, i get a better idea of wat to do.

there is a target to aim for, sending out 10 resumes to the client holders. and my boss said to me, she expect me to close 2-3 contracts per week. wow. of cos i want to cos each contract closed earns me an extra $25. but its simply very difficult. to the point that i get really excited when my 1st candidate was shortlisted for interview tml. i shouted a big YAY in my heart man. 2 candidates going down and i hope mine will be chosen!

looking at resumes is something very funny. you see people getting about 3k per annum (they meant monthly). or being born in 2007. HAHA. 2 years old and looking for a job? lol. and i really cant catch wat those KLKs (erm u can ask me if you realllllly duno wat it is) are speaking man. the point is to grab hold of key words. you cant understand everything they say i tell you. and there are weird ppl out there who says really funny stuff that doesnt make sense at all. and foreigners who dun understand wat it means by sporean/pr and keep spamming like 10 or 12 of their resumes. and the list goes on....

and i need to take the packed mrt rides nowadays.hmm more like a working adult now compared to taking company transport. heh. spending close to $5 each day on food and i must say i tried out quite a lot of fast food in 1 week. glad that the other temps are really nice people and easy to get a long with :)

saturday was as usual the family day cos sis is back. we went to ichiban sushi and this time i ate 2 plates of salmon cheese! omg.. alright my point is after that we went to shop for my cosmetics. feeling like a grown up. mum and sis was blasting me with what to do, what is needed, which is good and so on... i must say i am quite a noob at this cos i always thot ppl my age wouldnt need it. but the fact that my boss already mentioned abt putting some make-up, i think i better prepare myself. and sis say actually its quite a common knowledge when we get to uni. so now i have a full set for myself, from the eyebrow thing to blusher and wat have you. enough to make me a member of maybelline. lol.

its yet another day tml. dun think i can hit anything near the target resumes cos will be meeting 2 candidates.

good luck to me..

call me sophia

2009-04-12T23:12:00.003+08:00

just a quick post abt the week before i go to bed and wake up tml for my new job.

WED
went for mini s24 gathering. only 6 of us in total. audrey, jipeng, joanna, singhui, yanjia and me. was supposed to have steamboat but we changed to having fish n co at bugis. which marks the 2nd time i'm having fish and chips in 5 days. haha. but it was good meeting up with them, and i realised its like close to 2 years since i last last jipeng? haha guess i'm missing out too much on s24 gatherings. and good that audrey went cos it cant be 'low' with her around. heh. we walked around, to the new iluma and bugis street after dinner. den home sweet home :)

THUR
i found a new job. after spamming resume for 3 days on jobsdb, jobstreet or any jobs site you can find online. only 1 replied, which is recruit express. to be a consultant there. the exact same job as sis and ade. under the same head somemore. so i went in the morning for interview and was offered the job on the spot.

this brings me to the title of this post. if i ever sent you any email (which i rarely do. perhaps my pw mates were the only few to receive them), you will know myname on email is Sophia Eng, my email address too. thats set 6 or 8 years ago when i thot its cool to have that a christian name or whatever you call it. but i abandoned it when fm972 had this short commercial calling Sophia as a maid and my uncle keep laughing at me for that. and when i sent my new supervisor my resume, i wrote Shang Fei in the email. but she conveniently called me Sophia throughout the interview even though i wrote Shang Fei on my application form too. and she conveniently added Sophia behind my name as well on the contract. well well, i guess its easier to call and rmb. so, i shall start to accept that i'm Sophia from tml onwards.

ok so after the long story abt my name, i met joson and clarice at suntec after my interview. we had lunch at astons, sat there to talk from 2pm to 4pm, went to walk around and meet liyan meichen, before we went BACK to astons for dinner AGAIN at 5.30pm. LOL. so i had 2 meals there. my goodness. but it was nice talking and laughing with the seniors once again. meichen has got really funny stories, and she says it funnily too. haha.

after dinner joson went off and we went to esplanade to continue chatting. there was a harp concert going on and we sat there talking, with the nice music as background. and we went off to gelare cos meichen was craving for ice cream. yum yum. and we tried taking photo. but i guess everyone is too sleepy. haha.
FRI
was supposed to sing with alvin joson and yiwen. but after a twist of fate, i went to sing with sis instead while they and shijun jinxian sang at another room. lol its too long a story. and so the room was the usual room23 (we always get that. a bit weird ya). and i would say it was bigger then joson they all's room. lol! such that me and sis and straighten our legs on the sofa facing the tv. and i sang to my heart's content! 4hours solid ah! we got so high at 1 pt of time we used to instruments to dance with our fav hokkien song "ji ba ban"(1 million dollars). haha. such that we were so exhausted after the song. lol!
after that i went to meet the girls for dinner at ichiban! a pity mk couldn come. and yes its the usual catching up on all the random stuffs we used to talk abt in school last time. and they came up with this neverending cycle of meeting up by making someone pay 1st and we pay that person next time we meet! so evil! cos we MUST turn up for the next meeting den! haha we live up to ur name- the evil step fam! LOL. ok great next up is SINGING AGAIN with them. haha :)

SAT
danhong clarice they all went back to visit the nj juniors. but i decided to give it a miss cos i really hardly find much time at home, after going out for the whole week. and mum's homecooked food is still the best la! after all the eat-out you will really miss them :) and i plan to finish pi li MIT before job starts but failed :( 2.5 more episodes to go. yan ya lun is loved la!!!! :)

TODAY/SUN
the family went to IKEA tampines. a random idea by mum and we found ourselves there looking at all the furnitures and thinking how they can fit into our home. heh and we got new cups which we will personlise soon soon! i think after sis's final exams :) next stop was courts MEGAstore next door. camera camera! i'm going to get a new 1 after my next or next next pay day :)

den we went back to IKEA for dinner. cos every1 was craving for meatballs! yum yum! great and the chicken wings were super big and nice too!

i think i'm getting more and more high down the post. ok i'm a bit edgy over the new job. cos sis has told me sooo much abt it, i'm scared i cant live up to it, or not suitable for the environment. 3months contract can be slow or fast lo! esp when my new supervisor says i'm quiet and must get out of my comfort zone to fit in this job. well well good luck to me!! :))

frictionally unemployed

2009-04-07T20:06:00.010+08:00

hello i'm unemployed now. and i mean totally since i'm not teaching tuition as well (not that i dun want but no1 finds me :( )

last week..

-my farewell lunch treat by the company was at Ding Tai Feng. i think the xiao long baos are really small and crystal jade is better. but la mian wise it was better there la.

-had my 1st and last rollout at night. at suntec from 10pm at night to 5++am in the morning. wah super super tired la. no i wasnt doing the merchandising. of cos the guys did them and i was sitting on the ladder doing ticketing. and we had macs treat at like 2am. lol. i was half asleep by then. took a taxi home and the uncle was totally rushing for time cos he's changing shift. i reached home in less than 20min!

-my last day.

candy and alison gave me a really nice gifdt hamper. made by candy :) the sheep maa maa is really cute and there's lots of snacks which i cant bear to eat. lunch treat from my boss again for the last time. and i gave my colleagues the bear banner. and they put them at their works station :)
i went to do clearance and when i came back my boss, alison and candy changed into the red coke tee! and they gave me 1 too so that we can take photos in it. and we went to take with the big big coke at the lobby :)

1st up me with the coke! it makes me happy seeing it every morning when i go t work..me with alison the friendly and nice and most huggable admin coordinator :)thats candy the chio-est lady in the office. she wears really nice clothes!
and we love the big coke!! *hugs*
fong li from HR who joined us for the photo taking. she's the 2nd person i know in coke. cos she led us thru the orientation.oh ya i shud insert a photo taken with evelyn in Feb. she's from HR and the 1st person i know cos she interviewed me. but sad she left in mid feb :(
and how can forget my very nice boss!!!
group pics! they made me squat in front la! haha :)and we went back to the office... to take more photos! but i was in such a hurry i forget to transfer the group 1s :( nvm will get my boss to send me after she come back from china.. here's the only 1 i have in our office. me and my boss :)))and so, thats the end of my 3months job stint at FNCC :)

saturday we celebrated minghan's birthday at plaza sing. had the very nice manhatten fish market! well at least i think its nicer and more worthy than fish&co. den we went to walk walk around and neoprints! no la we took using phone camera. but after a lot of tries still not bad la..

the 5 of us- minghan, danhong, shijun, joson and me :)
and shihao and shijun's fren join us for shinjuku incident movie. alien years since i last watched a movie! but it was ok la. dun understand why they say the film has been in the planning stages for almost 10 years. a looooot of triad gang members but i think the eguchi is most ok looking 1 inside, since daniel wu was really not shuai4 with that fake hair and he lost one hand in the early parts of show. omg damn gross.
ok now i duno wat to do for the rest of the month. but this week is no doubt packed, gathering with s24, clarice & liyan, the girls... oh man and no recruitment agency has called me yet. quite interested to get a waitress job with shufen to try out. sis says can learn a lot of things actually. but i'm now quite comforted because the unis did receive my application. lol cos so many ppl had receive their acceptance letter except me. smu called me to go down for interview next week. but i'm more interested in the nus 1!! nus plssss call me!! :(((

catch up

2009-03-29T17:58:00.015+08:00

was busy with the uni application yst. thanks to the discretionary admission stuff. see thats the result of doing things late la. haiz. but finally everything is more or less settled, left with some touch-ups on tuesday..

and so it was a week with lots of catching up with different ppl :)

with family!

last sunday we went for food fair @suntec. long time since we last hit the more town part tgt. there were a lot of ppl, making eating less enjoyable. we still left with bags of stuff though, like chicken essence, bak gua, prawn crackers etc.. and we headed to crystal jade for the fav xiao long bao with half-filled stomach..

there we saw the fountain of wealth open for ppl to go walk a round, touch the water and make a wish! so we made ourselves like tourists, joining the queue and taking photos while waiting :)

after xiao long baosssss we went to MOF next next door for dessert! my treat for the month with my pay.. and the gelato ice cream there are goodness uber nice la!! so i insist to take a pic with dad and mum as an evidence. hahaa!

with the clique!

celebrated angila bdae in advance on tues @ causeway point pizza hut. and of cos, uni application is the point of discussion. but we could still talk crap like in the past. haha! amazing how every1 is leading a very different life, when we used to do the same thing during secondary school days... and its really nice to have gatherings like this!! :):)

with the girls!

on thurs we went for dinner @ prego in fairmont. we were scammed by the $500 voucher cos the value is actually $50. but we stayed on for dinner though. definitely burnt a hole in the pocket for its price, but thats fine dining isnt it. heh. the food portion was really big. and we each ordered different kinds of pastas. after trying each kind, i think i was half full already. too much pasta of the same taste makes me sick, so were swopped the plates around.. not to forget the tiramisu we shared at the end. nice nice. and we sat there chatting until like 10+ about so so many things, since the restaurant wasnt really full. a pity mk had to leave early. and we left because they have already start setting up for breakfast the next morning and we were scared they will chase us out. lol! but its set that we will definitely have a meeting soon soon. cos we haven paid xiuwen for the meal =p

and the pics for the day: http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v708/sophiaeng_90/prego%20w%20girls/

with colleagues!

on fri lunch time had lunch with my boss, alison and candy. the moment i stepped into the room the got a shock man. its a mini farewell lunch for me cos i'm ending work there next week. and there will be some rollouts at night which means i dun have work the next day. i knew there was sakae delivery but not so many! we almost couldnt finish the salmon sashimi. shiok to the max! and my phone battery died on me so i cant take photo of the dessert-- 11 SECRET RECIPE CAKES OF DIFFERENT FLAVOURS!!!! my goodness i stuffed myself to eat so many but we still couldn finish, so they da-baoed some home. fresh cream cakes like the mango, choc banana and choc are still my fav, compared to the brownies, carrot cake, apple cheese etc....

1 more treat by the company next week. i get to choose wat to eat! yay!

with clarice & joson!

went back to visit our tuition teacher ms ho on friday evening. for a short while only since she was having tuition. after that we went for macs and sat there to chat. joson is like mega funny. after so many things 1 that left the most deep deep impression on me is the saying gong xi in the mortuary. omg couldnt stop laughing lah!! ok so we talked abt a lot, from uni interview to doctors and business and so so many stuffs :)

with relatives!

went to the cemetery for qing ming today. as usual the uncles aunties and cousins were there.. its going to be the last year there!! cos they are clearing the land so we have to move ah gong to the temple... aww.. its like a tradition to go there sao mu every year since i dont know when la..

ok thats happening. after this coming week i gotta look for another job soon!!

before things start piling up again..

2009-03-23T23:19:00.003+08:00

i'm more or less settled with my uni choices. and i hope, no regrets or whatsoever *yes yes*

so here i am, after 2 eventful weeks.. soooo many things are happening, and yes i expect more this week. heh. so shall post abt the few main things that happened...

Work.
it fills up the main part of weekdays. thus, there are actually a lot of things happening. 1st comes the flower at tuas blossoming. oh man its really really nice x10000. and so when me and my boss drive out for lunch, we would make a detour to the back. cos at both rows of trees have their flowers blooming. and it happens when a silver bmw stalked us! super obvious cos it stop when we stop and drive when we do so. so my boss drove round and round and it followed us! so stupid! at 1 junction my boss drove so fast we pass by the traffic light just in time. so exciting! as good as those movie can :)

and my boss love cakes, so other then insist to buy me lunch once in a while (and i realised its like once a week), she insists to buy cakes for me! ok i am getting really fat... and last week we had bdae celeb for jan-mar babies, just like how we had in jc!but the fruit cake was 4kg omg! but considering there were so many merchandisers... i guess it was pretty ok. i'm a noob cos i havent read "who moved my cheese" and my boss gave me a copy :) cos she has 2. she wanted to give me on my last day, prepared the coke wrapper but gave up, just gave me last week. lol!and Earth day is this 28th mar! there were these papers hanging all around the company. and we were supposed to pluck out the paper light bulbs to write wat we will do on earth hour. 15 copies get u a tote bag. and my boss managed to get 75 ppl to support in less than 2hours! great so i got a nice coke tote bag too. and the 1 guy outside realised i didnt have any coke merchandise so he gave me a lot to fill up the tote bag! i like the coke teddy bear best :)come to think of it, my days in f&n coke is numbered. lol. gotta find another job soon!

Xiangling's bdae.
it was xl bdae on the day of results release. so me and fen had to celebrate it belated@lot1. and we really enjoyed chilling out with lunch at kobayashi and iced dessert at the random shop. lots of catching up which we used to do every week during co on saturdays when we go to yuhua tgt... aww really miss those days.... but seriously the 2 of them are the bff la! :)
Pri school gathering.
after like 6years, we finally had a pri school gathering, which was pathetic. haiz. it was at somewhere really near our house, admiralty park, but apparently every1 was too busy to attend. so only 5 of us were there. but ok la, we managed to talk quite a lot, abt the different pri school ppl. many of them i could only rmb the name not faces, or the other way round. or the silly things our principal made us do which other kids dun. haha!

took 2 group photos before i left for sis concert. the other 1 had a better lighting effect but i wana put this up cos my hair is nicer. lol but i edit till... a bit blur. lol get fen can get the actual 1 from me the nxt time..
sis's dance concert.
after the 'pri school gathering', i rushed to clementi to meet mum for sis's dance concert. and was late. so we took the taxi. but the uncle had no idea where is nus high. and said until like it was my fault for not knowing the way and that we dun know cos he had not study for duno how many decades. i was fuming man. dun study in the school means u duno where it is?? after showing a really bad and sarcastic attitude to him... he gave a discount on the fare. so ppl, pls dun be bullied by these kind of uncles!!

alright back to the point, the dance concert was really nice. as in the humorous parts. lol. i am not arts enough to take things like modern dances. and ok la i give claps to my clumsy sis who falls down even when cycling and refuse to move at home, for dancing not-so-badly on stage. haha!!
going for these hall concerts and performances, like the drama production last time, seems to bring me much closer to hall life. and i really look forward to it :)

alrights thats all for now :)

updates

2009-03-19T20:43:00.002+08:00

i realised its been a long time since i last blogged.. the last time before results. oh man.

so results was... bad. esp gp. worst than a horrible nightmare. i just needed time to get over them. and i think i have now. day in and out i have been thinking abt wat courses to take. courses which my lousy results can get me to, and can at least interest me a little. and start imagining myself doing that thing 10years down the road, search online abt the course, think until i fall asleep. lol.

oh ya the open house last weekend. led by sisters of the clique. lol i mean my sis and xw sis at the different uni. it gave me a clearer pic, but i am still, unsettled :(

i thot i have 1001 things to say, but i dun. lol. next time perhaps. after i'm more settled with my uni stuff..

mistake

2009-03-08T01:42:00.003+08:00

ok i made a mistake today. i thot the guy who had his face in the smu business catalogue like it was his photo album, is from smu. LOL. but the thing abt the article which i told xiuwen and claire abt the ntu ppl are not so goodlooking, with that guy featured, is true. just that he was representing smu. look here if u are really bored.. and thats why i got all mixed up.
haha ok i just wanted to clarify that..

15th feb was dad's bdae. I treated the whole family to international buffet @rendezvous hotel's straits cafe with my pay :)

the 6 of us that went :)
the food there was seriously good.. from oyster to sashimi to laksa and of cos, the durian desserts they are famous for!we took really nice pic there cos of the warm lightings.. here's some of them..
so we had a great night with good food and nice ambience :)

last friday after work i went to watch sis's temasek hall drama production: in Erised. read it from the back and u will see desire. i think only ppl who read harry potter could appreciate this. didnt expect much but it turned out to be really really comical . super funny!!! surprisingly enjoyable show with a great plot i would say. the only minus point was that i'm sick. kept coughing but have to bear until the intermission...

last saturday, which was the day after the production, esf met up for a singing session at party world. which was also a surprise bdae celebration for xiuwen. hope she really was surprised! haha.. didnt know the person there can insert the bdae song in halfway and help us bring in the cake until then. and we had a good time singing (despite my coughing and not very comfortable throat), keep getting mk to sing cos she hardly knows any songs.. lol!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY XIUWEN!! ;))

lucky black friday

2009-02-14T00:38:00.002+08:00

its supposed to be an unlucky yst. ya the 13th cos its past 12 midnight so it should be yst. but i was so lucky! thanks to my fantastic boss :)

work work work in the morning. i have endless stuff to do. which is good. slacking in the room with glass panels and ppl (esp the director and snr managers next door) walking past is not good. heh. and in the afternoon had to go down IMM to take some photo of the shelves in giant. my manager drove me down as usual and we went for late lunch (1+pm is not exactly late but my boss always gets hungry at 12. haha!)

so i was finding my way in the big IMM to the foodcourt when she said "not here!" and we walk here and there. trying to find a place called Baystreet21. and its a restaurant. ok i was not prepared to spend the price (more than 10 bucks) on a weekday lunch. but i guess i had to. and when i was flipping thru the menu my boss said "just order la dun look at the price i treat u". that was not exactly wat i was expecting omg.

the food was nice but serving was BIG. and we had set lunch which had bread soup dessert and such. not to forget the bowl of onion rings she ordered before the food arrive. mega super full. there was endless of things that my boss can tell me. interesting stories of her life and of my hate-and-love eerie stories.heh. the bill came and i attempted to pay u know. but i had no idea wats the price seriously cos the menu only state the price of the ala carte without the set. and onion rings. and she paid using credit card. of cos, she repeated that she was going to pay. so i cant do anything but thank her :)

taking photos at giant was super fast. its really taking the pics of the whole shelf with the drinks. so my day ended slight less than 1hr before my actual work end. and get to walk walk around IMM. which is so big. and make me feel sooo lost.

anw there was this incident. my boss and some executives were having lunch meeting (meeting and lunch catered). means i am not included. but she said i can eat the food. so while i was working she came over to ask me to go take the food for lunch. i thot the meeting was over and happily walk in. when i was taking the beehoon the guy beside me started talking abt the powerpoint again. and the director was right infront of me (i didnt know at 1st cos the lights was off and the OHP still on). so the meeting was not over! i was so stunned. and den my boss started asking me wat food i want. but i was so paiseh to say cos the guy is still talking. so she just took over my plate and take the food for me. omg.

ok i realise i am saying really good things abt her. guess she will be so happy if she ever get to see it. haha! :)

happy girl :)

2009-02-10T21:32:00.003+08:00

#1: i took half a day leave to fix my braces cos 3 brackets came out (my sis says i'm seriously pro). and my boss told me of the traffic light to get across the road! i can get to boon lay mrt station in less than 20min from den... i always took the loop bus outside which takes more than 1hr! and thats the traffic light we always pass by when we drive out to eat. haha! :)
#2: i changed my ez link card to the new version cos there were no queue in the post office at lucky plaza :)
#3: the people in dentalworks are seriously nice! like going there cos they make me feels so like at home. dr poon called me a new hero for getting so many brackets out. lol! :)
#4: i ate taco pachi at taka. omg super nice. the authentic 1 is really better as compared to those outside. heh :)
#5: m)phosis is having mega sales. everything 50% or 70%. i bought a pair of pump heels at super super cheap price. yay :)
#6: some guys were giving out heart shaped balloons on the streets. for i duno wat reason. and they gave me 1! :)

great week

2009-02-07T10:25:00.002+08:00

so fast, yet another week has passed...

the 1st week after cny, and also the week when i resumed work at fncc. shall talk abt that later.

on wed after work, i joined sihui and her mum at ntu for the campus concert of huang jing lun and shi xin hui. thanks sihui! she asked me to join them cos last time i told her huang jing lun is very cute on yu le bai fen bai and it would be good to see him in person. we got the 3rd/4th row and the view was mega good cos she won the tic on 933 so we got vip seats. and true enough, both of them sang really well. and huang jing lun is as humorous in person! so cute. so it was a great night with nice songs and music :)about my job, well i'm given more stuffs to do. broader range i would say. anw my boss is going to teach me a lot of things.. the reasons, cannot be disclosed now. lol. i was shocked that AC Nielsen charge US$1000 a day for a 5day workshop to teach the catman stuff that i am doing. and she said that she would teach me those. which really made me feel that my stay here is worthwhile. lol.

we had the cny lunch buffet cum lao yusheng this week. ours was with some key accounts and merchandisers. alright the merchandisers are ppl who wear the coke uniform and do sales, packing in the stores. omg they were crazy when lao-ing the yusheng. when the manager said "1,2,3 start!" they shouted like mega madness which really gave me a shock. there were more on the floor than table a the end. haha. and the table i was at (there were 6 tables) was with the CEO! haha how cool.

and i think those exec in the company are weird ppl. 1st comes that i-dun-mean-to-dao-him director. den was our key a/c director who just came back. i've heard so many things abt her from my boss but she showed a totally diff side of herself. lol. she came over to my boss office just to invite me to the cny buffet. was so stunned. den was the senior manager next door. i duno why but i keep going to the toilet every now and den, but that means i have to pass by his room. 1 fine day when i pass his room and he was coming out, he said a warming "good morning". crazy i was so omg. so now when i see him i have to give a smile, which was quite.... lol.

but i think my boss really treats me well. when i grumble of my financial burdens (braces & earn my pocket money) she would go over HC and come back telling me i will get a pay rise nxt month. haha! everytime she teach me sth she would say "u owe me a meal hor!" but when i wanted to pay for thelunch she would insist to pay back and say nxt time. and end up treating me sweets or snacks. not to mention she treated me to lunch quite a lot of times alr. she could tell that i like the coke bear, so she asked the trade marketing ppl to give me 1 after they are done with the exchanging with buyers. omg i seriously feel so blessed :)

=)

i hate hand shakes

2009-02-03T19:00:00.003+08:00

sth really stupid happened to me today.

the director of com came over to my boss's room today. and i just came back from the photocopy machine. i said hi and sat back at my seat, back facing him. there were some silence which i dunno why until he left the room.

den my boss said "oei he wanted to shake hand with u lei! i hint hint u also nv response". OMG. i totally have no idea. i didnt mean to dao him!!!!

so i had been feeling bad since den.

=(

happy lunar new year!

2009-01-27T19:00:00.000+08:00

its the time of the year again!

with lots of cny goodies and angbaos and play-for-fun-earn-some-pocket-money gambling and never ending food! well my braces no longer hurts but it irritates me by getting the food stuck at the brackets every now and then =*(

the day 1 was as usual spent at ah ma's house. this yr i won $16 from the table! lol but i spent them later giving some to my ah ma and buying kfc for my family which we brought into the cinema =x

anyway my cousin is a cam pro with lots of slr, and i think they take really really nice photos! when i'm really rich, i will buy a wii 1st den invest on one dslr and take the lessons to really learn it! wahs so cool =DD

i think this pic is really nice..

the couple!

braces sisters!

the loving family! haha!

with ah ma =))

the happy Eng family =)))

at night my family went to watch all's well end's well tgt. the plot was ok only. its the actions of the comedians that make it funny. and Louis koo is ultimate shuai4! =)

=D

thanks to my boss

2009-01-22T16:43:00.002+08:00

my boss just called to say she secured the job for me. the pay is still under discussion. definitely higher than the last 1 la. thank goodness. but i feel kinda bad to her cos she's like helping me alot, pushing for a higher pay and keeping me updated on the status of the job along the way.

no more job hunting=)

braces day 2

2009-01-21T23:00:00.002+08:00

its the 2nd day with braces. ONLY. i need to have them on for 2 years. zomg.

Dr poon said it will be very painful today. cos the teeth will start shifting 24 hrs later. its more suan1 den pain lo. cos can feel sth tightening your teeth. and i spent more than half an hour cleaning my teeth yst. was very very careful, scared too hard the brackets will drop out and wat not.

trying to get used to them now. realised i look infront of the mirror every half an hour trying to find the best way to smile and not to smile and talk. looks really weird.

and i am very hungry now. survived on liquid food for 2 days. whipped potato, campbell soup, porridge are the kind of thing that keeps me going. i cant even have an egg roll=(( the moment my teeth sense that they are touching on sth, they hurt like mad. omg i better really be able to eat the day after tml like sihui! pls be glad that u all can eat normally.

ok its very suan1 now =(((

updates

2009-01-20T14:00:00.001+08:00

hello its 1 wk to cny. and i just got my braces on. 1 at a time, shall talk abt the eventful new year 2009.

1. meeting up with the girls.
thats got to be 1 of the most enjoyable thing. we arranged for a gathering last friday evening. well every1 works in the town area except me. met at raffles place before we proceed to settlers cafe. which is in clarke quay. kinda like a explorer's hunt becos we have no idea how to go there. as usual xiuwen was the walking directory to show the way with her map. haha.

played some games, like the acting game, cloud9, taboo, snorta. its just amazing to see mk wearing a performer's costume (which is seriously overaged on her) and doing kiddish actions and sounds. haha. a pity it was dress down day so couldn see yili and claire in their office wear.

den we went along the s'pore river for some catching up. only 1 month since we last saw each other, but there are so so many things to say. of cos, we used to talk every schoolday, now everything is squeezed to 1 night. haha!

2. end of workok this sounds funny cos not long ago i just said i started working. anw its just a 2weeks contract. and i am still unemployed now. its ok there are plenty of jobs on the papers. i'm sure i can find 1 which i like more =D

back to the topic, fncc actually give out staff drinks. 2 cartons each per month. but cos this month is cny, they give 5. and even a 2wks temp like me is included! haha so i spent 3 days lugging them home. luckily there were nice and friendly ppl there who would offer to carry for me =) so now mum dun need to buy new yr drinks anymore =D

went around saying bye bye to the acquaintances in the company. like the admin coordinater alison, hr evelyn, guy on intern and the bus driver who sends me home. lol thats quite few..

3. more surveys
well nuh is trying to clear the ntuc vouchers for the surveys. so they got those ppl who did more last month to continue. so i did more surveys during weekends. since my work is only 2wks this month, i need more $ to pay for my braces. haha!

its pretty interesting to explore into the ulu parts in the north which i never thot i could see. the place where i had the deepest impression is probably the 一房半厅一水缸 kind of houses. haha i have totally no idea they exists in woodlands! the corridor were a bit dark ( the pic is not accurate) but the ppl are better than those living in bigger houses i tell u.

seriously, i dun mind being rejected but shooing ppl off is really not a very polite thing. i am not a cat or dog in ur void deck ok! i am just doing survey and not like u do it for free. u get vouchers la. so wats with those nasty words and hand actions to shoo ppl away!

4. braces
and now is the most recent 1. went to dentalworks to get my braces fixed early in the morning. Dr poon showed me the mould of my teeth. wah uber messy. looking forward to how it will look like 2 years later. lol.

the time taken was abt 1hr, and i almost fell asleep. after he took away the thing to open my mouth while he fix the brackets on, i totally couldn close my mouth. oh man. actually the prob of my teeth is that it is messy and the front ones are protruding at an angle out. so now its worst la with the brackets on. but was so amazed when dr poon said that he can make teeth go left, right, in, out, up down and even rotate! wow! and i have problem talking cos my lips are blocked by the brackets. oh man i have no idea how to go for the next interview. but am glad that i dun have to work this week. can slowly get used to the braces =)

and cos my upper teeth will keep knocking onto the metal pieces of the lower teeth, he put sth like a platform at the back so that its not that bad. but now i cant eat anything except liquid food. oh good that helps in dieting. lol.

and i can imagine the time i need to clean my teeth everyday for the rest of the 2 years. awwww....
_______________________________________________________________________________________________

thats abt it. so looking forward to playing at sihui's house this sat! =D

post reject depression

2009-01-19T21:03:00.001+08:00

omg i feel so bad now. cos i was like okok for everything during the interview just now. like very keen for the job. but after thinking on the bus i dun want. den i reject the offer. oh man!

=(

job hunting day

2009-01-19T18:17:00.002+08:00

supposed to put on braces today. but dr poon not free. so tml...

well early in the morning RE called me to go for a job interview in FACTORY AREA again. do i look i like to work in those place?? its admin assistant for legal department of a manufacturing company (for sofas). den HR of FNCC called to say they are in the midst of confirming my extension of contract. wah i was thinking whether i shud go for the interview but in the end i still did.

the place was ultimate ulu. worst den fncc. i lost my way cos i tink the directions given by RE was not right. lucky a kind uncle stopped and DROVE me there. ok i hesitated whether i shud board but i was running late for the interview. so i did. lucky i was not kidnapped. lol. the place look more grand then fncc though. all the chairs are sofas (for obvious reason).

the interview was with the legal consultant. a lady who end up talking with me abt stuff like A level and her nephew who is currently taking the IB. but the department has only 3 ppl (include me if i join them). omg and no canteen, no lunch nearby since its the factory area. need to bring ur own food.

after walking out from there i seriously think i dun want to work there. also not that they confirm want me since there are other candidates. shortly after my boss of fncc called to tell me she would fight for my job not via RE anymore so that the pay would be higher. so i thot that would be good. but the moment i put down the phone, RE called again. say I GOT THE JOB. omg. like how. i said i dun want but the person repeated at least 10 times "REALLY?" make me waver. cos the sofa company changed the contract so that i can end by june cos during the interview i said i dun want to work in july. but i still said "dun want la".

ok thats abt it i just wanted to tok abt the eventful thing. well i really feel like working in city areas instead (though tranpsort cost incurred) den in factory for the rest of the holidays. so i made the right choice hor!

i just need assurance that i did the right thing. lol.

more about my job

2009-01-12T20:31:00.003+08:00

the last week has been pretty busy. and tiring.

weekdays was at work. mainly office stuff except that i had to go down some stores to get info on the drinks that i am working on. and looking at the excel files day in and out. well i have a database of stuff to follow up so it can be quite tiring for the eyes. and there is never-ending stuff to do!

i didnt get to know the sales people outside. cos i'm always in the room and they are not at their work station. there is this big banner outside on the ceiling that says "this is not my office. my office is the marketplace" haha cos sales people are supposed to do a little paper work and den leave to go out for sales. if you stay for too long there will be posters saying "GET OUT!" with your photo on it pasted all around the office! wow how interesting.

but through the week i get to know my manager more. and i'm really glad for that. we go out everyday for lunch. in her car of cos since the office is in such a ulu place. tried lots of nice food! and i see sugarcane juice everywhere! wah my fav.

well my manager a really nice lady. besides teaching me abt my work, she's never stingy to share her experiences! 1 week only and i think i learnt a lot a lot! in the office cos its so quiet she will just say sth for fun. haha! we have a lot of close door talks cos wat she say are not meant to be heard by ppl outside. lol! she told me so many things about sales in this company and all the other big companies that make me really feel like joining sales&marketing in future!

today went for roll out. well for this job of mine, which is only 2 weeks, i am supposed to just do the office stuff. but my boss (my manager) asked me to join them so that i can get a feel of how it is like and decide whether i wan2 continue working with her.. its mainly merchandising but i sorta do the easier ticketing stuff while the ad-hoc guys did the tough labour..

but my boss seems to be really getting me ready to be a captain! i thot say say only.. cos today she told me wat a captain does and how to brief the temp guys. cos last ime she said she can train me for that so that i can beef up my resume. like experience as a supervisor but i thot she was joking (like she always likes to)..

so yup i will be signing a 3months contract with fncc. for the fact that i can learn so many things and get so many great opportunities. and of cos, a higher pay which would be quite hard to get elsewhere. heh. i have learnt the fact that the workplace is not the school. they will not teach you wfor the sake of letting you learn, but rather to work for them. so you have to go thru the hard way. and thats wat we call experience. so to learn the specialised software for this catman thing (my section in sales), i need to start from collecting the data. to be a captain, i need to start from working like and with those adhoc guys.

yup so i hope 3months is enough to learn all i need to in this sector =D

SJ and LX bdae =D

2009-01-04T10:52:00.002+08:00

and so it was shijun's (yst) and lerxian's (tml) bday celebration yst. haha.

dinner at ajisen. please dun order miso ramen when u go becos its ultimate salty. and even more ex. omg. and so it was some talking and the 08 j2 batch went to buy cake except me cos i haben finish my ultimate-mega-salty-miso-chashu-ramen. den alvin left also. left me as the only j2. but i heard alot of army stories which i never heard before. yes more of the yellow parts. lol.

den was singing bday songs. we sang 4 times! 1english 1 chi for shijun den another 2 for lerxian. and he got a shock as well cos he wasnt expecting that we would celebrate his bdae.. haha.

so after that went arcade. there are mega cheap neoprints! range from $3-7! imagine it was RM30 at genting. oh my i was damn excited at 1st but not after what joson said. blah. and i saw a new arcade machine! or was i too sua koo already. its like para para but use fingers kind. heh. so very interesting. and basketball machines reminded me of how my aunties got hooked on playing that in genting. lol!

anw in the end we still took neoprint. 8 ppl and thats not all. some didnt take. but it was super squeezy already cos the screen is so small. couldnt move so i guess we look pretty much the same in all pic. only lerxian cos i realised he made a lot of different expressions though the position is the same! lol. but i really super lousy at the drawing part. no time no time! omg lol.

so thats abt it. happy birthday to them =DD

1st day of new job

2009-01-02T20:28:00.003+08:00

and that's where i work.

went pretty early in the morning and met the HR who interviewed me. and she brought me to a room. not long after another guy came in. he's a temp staff too and guess wat: he's from njc as well. 2 yrs older than me cos he served ns. and a crazy pro who studied 2 maths and got A for all subjects. so the morning was spent talking to him cos no1 came to attend to us. but he works in another department which has high pay but weird hours. finally some1 came and showed us 2 loooong videos. which were code of conduct and history of the company. heh. and the person disappeared again. the funny thing is u cant open the door of that room from outside and the phone doesnt works.

so after looooong waiting i was finally brought to my manager. hoho.
well we are part of the sales department. but for the job that we are doing, its a niche area in the marketing sector and there's only the category manager and me. the 2 of us in 1 room and i sit right infront of her. haha. ok there is this thing in sales&marketing which i never knew existed. so i am seriously going to learn abt sth in that area which i have never thought i would touch on.

my job is not office bound. YAY. its half half i would say. i heard my department is always quite empty cos the ppl need to go out very often. i need to go out to the supermarkets too and take some information on the drinks den come back office to key in the data. from the lists i saw today, i need to go out pretty often. and i will go by taxi, which can be fully claimed. hehe. i will have to be quite independent, cos the manager, lisa, will start me off and i will do the rest myself. cos she's a busy lady who need to go out as well to meet the customers and wat not.
compared to wat most of my friends told me abt their job, i seriously prefer mine. cos its sth totally new, and i work with a goal in mine cos i am assigned a set of work to complete.

anyway yes there is free flow of coke and other f&n drinks there. lol. but i dun really like sweet stuffs.

talking abt my manager lisa, she's a really nice lady to get along with. she said the canteen food is not nice so she took me out in her car for lunch. on the way and through the meal she told me really alot. cos she has experience in at least 7 or 8 BIG companies. she spends a few year on each cos she wants to learn more things and now her resume is like... wonderful. and she told me from like which big company pay attention to wat when hiring to the welfare and environment there. really gained a lot talking to her (hope i rmb as much as i could. lol.)

completed the stuff i set to do for the day and its just right to get on the company bus home. my transport fees is $0 cos there's a pick-up point very near my house! hoho..

and i can go on and on about my job cos its really very very new and interesting to me. heh. and did i mention there is an assignment when we will have to work from 1030PM to morning. YES ITS PM. and instead i was excited. agreed to do the moment lisa told me abt it. LOL cos i never tried such a thing. and she said she will talk to her boss for extending my employemt since she need an assistant to carry out the proposal we are doing now. and its more out station work. will be very different from what i am doing now. everything will be perfect if the pay is higher=x

ok i wanted to stop but i carried on for so much. oh man. okok thats all for now.

its 2009

2009-01-01T00:53:00.000+08:00

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2009 to all!!! =DD

last day of 2008

2008-12-31T23:19:00.003+08:00

2008 is a special year.. it marks the end of my jc life, complete with lots of wonderful memories which i never want to forget. and these would never be possible, without the many many wonderful ppl i met in njc.. and so on this last day of the year, i dedicate this post to them...

My Girls.yes i call them MY GIRLS! haha!
2 years of knowing each other, seeing each other almost everyday, being together for breaks, lunch lessons, gatherings... and we are still not sick of each other! as if those were not enough, we stick tgt to mug as well.. in the canteen, libraries, clearing our queries with 1another and helping out.. [oh ya this time round i got a good improvement award from cdc&ccc, thanks to them! =D] now, after all the exams, we still arrange to meet out tgt, still have endless things to talk and laugh about...

each and every1 of us are really different, passionate about different things, have different characters, but we can click so well. like wat mk always say, "same same but different". heh. its not an easy thing finding ppl like them whom you can relate so well with. and i'm glad i've found them! can imgine my jc without them, a big fun part lost, how boring and dull it will be!

to my girls: must meet out more often! thanks for these 2 yrs and u girls are loved by ME! <33

NJCO.
to be very honest, i enjoyed my 1st yr with njco more...
it all started when i felt pretty left out in the unfamiliar school. with lots of ppl coming from the same school except me. seriously, i dun really like going co cos the ppl there are so pro. in terms of skills. and of cos the school they came from. like nanyang and rv and so many.

until the day the seniors asked me out for dinner. curry wok, my 1st time there. and after that, more hanging out at kap. the whole thing continued for the whole yr, going out after prac and reaching home at 11+ each time. but the bonds forged were much stronger than any1 can think of. all those chionging of cards, writing letters for seniors, doing banner for them, looking forward to each prac and chifan sessions... and i started to prac hard, cos i dun want to let them down.. we were all moving forward at the same goal-- syf. and the passion persisted till the concert.
when the seniors left, it was really really sad. cos we all know, everything will be so so different.

until the 2nd year, i start to realise how reliant we, or rather i have been on the seniors. and things start to fall apart. we no longer have the common goal to hold us tgt, and things went for a change in a totally different way. i rmb asking my sis, "how? the seniors are gone and i think it would no longer be that enjoyable in co". and she told me "no, it depends on wat kind of senior u are". what she said didnt really get into me, until now when i look back... how committed was i to co in 2008? no more chi fan, lesser prac, doing wat was my responsilbity only. the juniors... i didn make an effort to know them more, like what my seniors did to me.. thats sth really sad..

thats the end of my jc life. i've met so many wonderful ppl. of cos these are not all.. more ppl which i didnt get to include here. hope thats not the end of my friendship with them.. more gatherings and meet up ok! will look forward to them in year 2009 and the many years to come =))

bye bye 2008!
