I realised it has been nearly 3 years since I start this blog.
Haven got the time to update it for a long time since I started working.
A lot of things have happened during this few years. Some happy, some sad.
But I guess that's life. I hoped as I go through them, I will also grow emotionally as I aged. |

| A Brand New Year!!!! |
[Jan. 1st, 2007|07:15 am] |
A new year has begun, a new beginning.
I guess this is a joyous occasion for many people for it spells an end to all the unhappy things in the past year and a chance to start afresh in the new calender year.
But I feel that it also means goodbyes to the happy things in 2006. But no matter how, this is something we cant change. Time has it's own schedule that will not change or wait for anyone.
Maybe I am one of those people who prefers nostalgia, maybe because we always hope that time could turn back and let us change certain events of our life. In life, everyone will have a few regrets, a few sighs, a few mistakes. But no one knows how our choices now will affect our life later on.... maybe it will turn out well in the end... whether we like it or not, we will have to soldier on..
Perhaps it's true that some things happen in life for a reason, but there is need to know why but to move forward and ask how. |

| My Sister's wedding |
[Dec. 31st, 2006|02:25 pm] |
| [ | mood |
| |  cheerful | ] |
Have been at home for almost a week. Didnt do much though.
Went to wedding gown fitting with my sister at the bridal studio, quite a nice place but not much variety of gowns for off-the-rack. We still managed to settle on 3 different gowns; The Wedding dress, tea dress & evening dress.
But we couldnt find any suitable bridesmaid dress for me & my younger sister. Sigh...
Think the easiest would be to tailor made one but it's abit more expensive.
Saw some nice bridesmaid dresses from the internet, abit cheaper than tailor made ones but I have not purchase stuff from the website before so dunno if the dresses will turn out the same as the pics.
Amidst of all these, I began to realise how time flies.....
So soon, my sister is getting married and I am going to have a new brother-in-law. Didnt really get to interact with him often, so he seems like a stranger yet a soon-to-be family member. It's a rather weird feeling. hmm....but i guess that's how people grow up and moved on to their next life stages. |

| Dentist visit and haircut |
[Apr. 23rd, 2005|09:09 pm] |

Went for a dentist visit yesterday to extract my wisdom teeth that is causing problem. Had to wait for 1hr before my turn even though I made an appointment. The dentist gave me 3 jabs of asthestic and starting "hammering" my tooth. The procedure was not very painful just abit of pressure on my jaws.
After that I went home with 2 wisdom teeth and $500 lesser. Sigh... there goes my pay.
Slept till the evening for the numbeness to subside and went wisma for my hair cut. Recommended by Zhenning. The hairstylist is quite good. Think it is one of the rare times I get a good haircut. After the haircut, my hair looks more bouncy and lively although shorter. But I guess its okay the dry ends have to go anyway. After that, he gave me a dye to make my hair appear less dry. He mixed 3 different shades of the colour, one for my new grown black hair on top, second one for the middle section and last one for the ends and scalp.
Later met J for dinner and went home. sigh... think this month have a scrimp abit after yesterday's spending. |

Take the quiz: "Which God or Goddess are you?"
God of Life
Happy, hyper, and just in love with life. You don't mind being alive, in fact you love it, you like being who you are and just having a good time. You are what makes the heart beat and children be born. Sweet, and cute. |

| Sentimental |
[Sep. 23rd, 2004|12:43 am] |
With the class 95 playing in the background, aroused my thoughts and feelings in my heart. Personally I am quite a sentimental person or emotional u can say it. I am those kind who can tear at watching sob operas or by reading a touching romance novel.
When I was younger, I used to wonder what love would be. How does it really feel like to be loved by someone, to love someone. Now I feel a little older as I reflect on the past; the things I did, people I meet, etc. Sometimes I used to ponder is there a reason for everything that happened to us, destiny as what they called? I dunno. Perhaps there is but that's not always obvious to us. And people spend their lives away asking the big "why".
For a moment, I laughed at myself, my sillyness and all. Shrugged off these feelings, I went back to my books. |

| 2 more days to go!!!! |

How time flies, left 2 more days to my internship :>. I can still remember how longingly I was looking forward to the end of this internship. Now it's like only a matter of days away.
Although there were times when I really dread going to work (esp in the morning), and the frustration of trying to keep awake during the sleepy afternoon (drinking lots of coffee), I think I will miss this place and the people when I leave.
The people that I interact with, my manager (btw she is very pretty),and perhaps my desk. I guess one of the good thing abt this internship is there are 4 of us. So got company for lunch, people to talk to. We help each other along the way, accompanying each other staying late to finish work. It's comforting to know that there is your peers around that you can talk to.
There are also, of course lunch time with Celia, Karen, and Joanna (Joanna think we only get to hav lunch together once becoz of your lunch time)
I will miss crapping around with the managers and the funny times.
We had a farewell dinner yesterday with all the managers, William (the new FMP) at the elements, Amara hotel. It was sumptuous, international buffet. Yum Yum. Get to see the lighter side of them. It was also very touching to hear their comments abt us, that they will miss us; our voices & company.(btw I think we are the noisiest on the 7th floor)
*ps: Going indoor rock climbing after work. (need to do some workout after that hefty meal) Heehee...

I am so bored at work, my boss is still not in.
Everyone else seems so busy, so i decided to keep myself occupied and wrote a poem. So much for being poetic. haahaa...
The Train Ride
The scrambling for time, the rushing hour array,
Through the shuffling of trains and people, whisked our days away.
I stood in the corner, watching this orchestrated play,
Replay day after day with slight variations each day.
The old lady in sleep, the little girl in plaits, the young executive in suit,
Each with a different life story to tell, their dreams to pursue.
Perhaps life isn’t that monotonous, as it seems in a glance,
With the blink of an eye, new players join the dance.
In tandem they moved between the stations and train doors,
The train comes to a halt; my neighbor woke up in a loss,
I smiled at him, “You have just missed a great show.” |
