time just files and another week is gone. met up with the girls last friday for dinner and catch up before school begins in 2 weeks' time. submitted my time sheet at Taka and had dinner at Billy Bombers. lilian got pretty irritated with me saying the nice drink thingy, and jiahuey got all high when we reminded her something at the supermarket, while amelia, still so busy even after work...was a pretty good dinner that i had, just that it was too late for some shopping to be done after we are done with the dinner. but nevertheless, it was a food friday night out.the whole weekend was full of rest and sleep. well, had the saturday afternoon to get myself a pair of new specs, and some baking needs as well. the pair of new specs cost me $300, you must be thinking, why should i get myself such an expensive pair when i am wearing contacts most of the time? well, to a lazy person like me, at times when i just get tired with contacts, of course specs is the alternative. and school is starting soon, which means projects are coming too. at the same time, i am currently reading through some information about uni, so that it's time to apply when time comes, which it wouldn't be too long when that time arrives. i know mummy has been rather 'lenient' in terms of her asking about my love life, of course i know she is anxious for me, but the usual reply goes back to her; "there is nothing now, just let it come naturally." of course what i say is just to cover up things somehow or rather, who doesn't want to be happily attached? in any case, i am still a normal girl with the common desire to fall in love, experience the ups and downs, but just as what others always tell me; "girl, you are only 19, still a long way to go..." it just so happen that the guy that i liked, perhaps doesn't like me? or vice versa. and because the whole process of getting to know, to going forward and to the final step is too tiring, which made me gave him up. i wouldnt deny that he might be good, but with his fixed position taken, how am i supposed to brave through obstacles just to arrive at his heart? and i know it was time to give up when i know it's impossible. and maybe the previous experience has made me learn too many things within a short time... i am not being too much of a fussy that my partner has to be very rich or be very good looking...but still certain expectations do have to be reached, and different people, different views on that. (: alright, it's another week starting tomorrow. colleague planning a kbox session this friday, see if anyone supports him to make this session a success...alright, have a good rest peeps. shall update soon!

well, life can't get any much better when work is almost equivalent to holidays. (of course other than restricting the time that you can meet up with long-lost friends and regular cliques) and in this case i mean, i do somehow or rather enjoy this current job of mine, and it's mainly due to the colleagues that i have, which makes this job rather fulfilling at times. having to put aside the nasty callers and stuffs that will make me unhappy, this job is flexible enough. and soon, we are heading back school in less than a month's time. and yes, friends are gonna to complete their IPP in no time as well...everything just seem to pass in a blick of an eye, with the initial thought of 11 weeks of holidays, seeing it as a long long holiday, and now, we are left with less than 3 weeks to be truthful. and yes you will still read that i am complaining that i still have loads of things not done...this is just girls' nature. bear with it though. been working past 6pm these days, i have to start clearing some work before i have to work till late hours in the last week, and especially that week only has 4 working days (8 Nov is a public holiday, just happen if you don't know.) and my supervisor was around with me on certain days to clear some work of hers as well. and since i am only left with 2 weeks plus, i think i will be ultra pampered with Chasel's car rides..cos i will occasionally ask if he is heading home and if yes, i will take the advantage of it...hahas (Chasel, if you are reading this... ( : ) been advising some friends on certain relationship issues, but what's surprising to me is that i can't apply the same things that i have advised to myself. and nevertheless, i can't absorb what is being advised from friends. but still, the decision that i finally decide some time ago is right in this context at this moment, no doubt that i am feeling somehow of loss at times with regards to this, but at least my mood is kept happy always, other than being affected at some some times. because i know there is no reason to explain why someone doesn't like you or whatsoever, just have to get to the bottom of the logic and tell yourself that things just can't be forced. and to console yourself, you have to always remind yourself that; let things take its nature course. alright, it's the mid of the week already, and this week will soon be over. meanwhile, weather has been really unpredictable, therefore people, please do take care of yourselves as viruses and germs are spreading around as you heard sneezing and coughing all around. with that, rest well and goodnights!! (: Saturday, October 20, 2007
with the week passing fast, it's the weekends again.was feeling so bored yesterday at work, practically no mood to do work. and it was a friday!! how can the week be so bored...? and i am only meeting the girls up next friday. expect me to head home on a friday night and turn in early? nah, i don't wish to. so with that, i went to IM Chasel and Vince out for an movie. and yups, their partners were busy with their stuffs thus making them free for the night. caught "The Nanny Diaries" at Great World City. a pretty good 'slow' comedy...  and of course there were other external matters that were happening within the theatre. had dinner at Jack's Place with them, and we were like laughing non-stop. and it was minor shopping at Cold Storage...erm...that...nothing much... except for some murmur-ings from the guys. they never fail to talk something behind me...hahas. then after the movie, nearly couldn't find Chasel's car... and soon we were safely driven home by him to our respective homes. he had to drop Vince off first, then back to bukit timah area. gonna to have more of these...cos' its so fun!! ( : anyway, this weekend is gonna to get me pretty busy. library today, and family gathering lunch tml. and monday...where another week starts. and this time round, includes the OT session on mon. that's for now. holidays is gonna end in less than a month's time. i am gonna to treasure any gathering time within this period. so mummy pls don't say no, becos i know what am i doing. hahas. alright shall update soon. time for me to go for lunch.

another week is gonna pass real soon.gonna to meet up with the clique (jiahuey,lilian,amelia) next friday. still deciding where to have dinner...hmm... and yes should be meeting up with bestie before school starts. yeps referring to stef in this case. contact me when you are free. (: and soon, apple will be interviewing for candidates taking over. cos it's another like 3 weeks and i'll have to get back to school to finish up my last semester. taking public transport home is really a torture at times. that's because i am pampered with chasel's car rides every morning to work. so took an ultra squeezy bus home this evening. and you just can't imagine when people urgently wants a seat in the bus, they will try means and ways to get it. got pushed around, and the feeling is really...argh. forget about it. anyway, some photos from the chalet held at East Coast; 13 October 07 to 14 October 07.  everyone is busy with the bbq...everyone is scattered around, and we are only short of a few people...  have you ever encounter a mahjong game on a grass patch just outside the chalet? here's an eye opener for you. (you might just want to consider it the next time.) twister fun...(from left) Zhiliang, Chasel, Alex. take turns people, it's time for the ladies...(from left)ugin's gf, zhiliang's gf(pink), mendy, me. (: last group for the night for twister fun, (from left) Weijie, Ugin, Vince, Mervyn balloon fun which reveals human nature as depicted by Yen. (from left)Michael, Zhiliang, Chasel, Boon Hui, Vince, Clive... and with me always mentioning Apple in my entries, there she is... (: just some random pictures to start the camwhoring journey for the chalet...(from left) Me, Clive, Yen, Boon Hui, Apple... So people, it's time to say cheese!! (short of some people, but the number seems to fit the whole picture though.)alright, that's all people. have a good time this weekend. (: Monday, October 15, 2007
 this weekend was a hectic one. had the company chalet as mentioned. everyone came into the office, looking tired...as though they haven't got enough sleep (which they, in fact, didn't have enough) stayed awake throughout that saturday night, had talks and non-motivated mahjong session with chasel, ugin, vince, weijian... well, can't help it when the ratio of girls to guys is 1:5... then had mac breakfast at 430am. and i was safely driven home by chasel at 730am. (chasel stays near my place, it was on the way...) the whole chalet was a success, i should say. thanks apple for organising the games to bond everyone up. (twister, pictionary...) thanks weijie for being the organiser of this whole chalet. thanks for bringing me into the crowd even though i am only another month away back to school. and of course, thanks to chasel who saves my time of travelling to the east area... i did enjoy the whole event overall. it was another memory added to this holiday of mine. didn't regret turning down the job at ESPN to take this job up at Sybase 365, even though callers are really nasty at times. must treasure the next month of time in the office with the big group. and of course, can meet up anytime after my school hours, for movies or dinner...(: then went over to aunt's place to collect some stuffs... and was playing with lynn and kevin... yeps if you noticed, it's that two little cuties above. and soon, another kid will join them, yes, my aunt is pregnant with her third kid, planning to name her Ashley. so yea, as from the name, it's a baby girl!! had been some time since i last played with them, and usually i have to try means and ways before i can get them to play with me...but surprisingly, they came to hold my hands last night... i forgot where i heard this but it says..."God is fair, when he takes away something, he will give you something back." so i believe if i happen to lose this thing which i don't know if it does belongs to me, i'll be getting something else, and of course, something better. i admit, i can't let go of it fully, but i am trying hard, because time is running short, i have to do this before school reopens, if not, it might just be harder. and it did occur to me, what if something takes a twist and something happen? but that's just thinking. when it really happens, i can be sure i am too shocked to respond. and fate plays a big part to bring two strangers together as a couple, so those who are happy in love, they must treasure what they are being given. because such things doesn't come everyday, and it's not like you are changing your clothes every season. so friends around who are in love, you must hold that familiar hand with the same amount of warmth closely enough to the heart of yours to make sure you felt it right. (: alright, its time for bed. if not, i might just doze off in office. i should thanked all those who msn-ed me in office to prevent me from sleeping today... ok, goodnights. Friday, October 12, 2007
another week has passed.it just seemed like it has passed within a blink of an eye. and it's the company chalet tml, at East Coast Park; Island Resort (if you are thinking whether it is the new one, the answer is yes) a total of 28 people. 20 guys & 8 females. kinda feeling a slight bit of anticipation to it. supposed to meet up with the clique real soon. but everyone seems to be busy... pls girls...set some time out for a gathering or at least, a meal? i know everyone is busy at their respective workplaces. but dear girls, time for some meet up? (: everything just takes time; to remember and to forget. or maybe i am not that capable of doing all these that fast. i used to hold on to a thinking that every girl has her own chosen fantasy. i still believe in that, just that not every fantasy turns out to be a reality. (as said, it's fantasy) i have read through endless fairytales and all ends with a "happily ever after" but sad to say, the fairytale/fantasy that i have projected/dreamt, is perhaps something out of the reality. can't help thinking this way, that's because circumstances are set in the way that this is the only reason that i can figure out to console myself. i hate to put this down, but i know i don't have choices where i am free to choose. i've missed the bus that i was supposed to board, but will a car come along to pick me up instead? i doubt so. anyway, partial of it is pretty random, pardon me for that. shall update when i am back, which provided i am not too tired. cos they are planning games and stuffs. i guess sunday afternoon is for me to really rest... Tuesday, October 09, 2007
been working for a month or so.accumulated the number of calls that i have handled. to date, it's near 1,300!! can't imagine i actually handled that many calls!! well, been through the worst of customer service. and to top it off, the timetable is out. yea, for next semester. my dearest jiahuey msn-ed me in office and say..."i think i'll be late for mondays and wednesdays..." hahas, having to say that, i clearly knew that classes start at 8am on these 2 days... in fact most of the classes are in the morning other than friday. try your best my dear, you can beat the 8am classes...(: and lilian on the other hand, got increase in her per hour pay.. well, i don't know whether i should be happy or disappointed. but in all, as long as i am enjoying myself in this job, i feel it doesn't matter in any case. indeed, beautiful moments; they don't last. in fact, they are short-lived. i know many have asked me to hold on or to even give it a try. but i am really feeling the strain. i want to take a rest from all these, because i shouldn't be doing this to myself. in any case, i should be good to myself, at the very least. perhaps i have forgotten to stop at the cross junction, or maybe i have missed a turn somewhere. but i guess there might be better things up ahead for me. it might just be an excuse to console myself, but well, better than forcing my way through. i don't want to reach a point where i have to face things which i can foresee and yet i don't wish for it to happen. alright i guess this is all. shall update. ` differences that lie in between. Saturday, October 06, 2007
daddy touched down Singapore last night and we had out dinner at our usual favourite place after picking him up.yea, East Coast Food Village. has beef soup, staty bee hoon...those famous food around that area. and it was the weekends again!! had a fulfilling saturday though. went to Bukit Timah Plaza's Fairprice Finest (you should have caught their advertisement on TV though.) cos daddy wanna get some stuff back... so we went there to get some necessary groceries...and of course, some additional items...like chips, chocolates...well i know they are not healthy but such things for once in a while mood should be pretty alright yea? so the total bill came up to $268.00.. and guess what, the guy who was queuing behind us looks irritated, since we had the whole trolley filled with our items and naturally it would take us some time to pack and of course for the cashier to scan the items... the problem is...he could see that our trolley is nearly filled to the brim and if he was in a rush, why did he queue behind us? ohwell, doesn't matter about that... and yes i don't know why, we will always forget to bring our own bags to the supermarket... so we decided to buy two of those fairprice bags which cost us at $1 per bag and keep them in the car so that we would not forget the next time round... and guess what? the cashier gave us 3 free!! so now, using your fingers to count... it sums up to a total of 5 bags!! that's like more than enough... (maybe not so if the items are like today's.) but shopping in supermarket will get me happy at least for a while, that i don't know why. maybe that's because i will get what i want from the shopping trip. (: went crystal jade at holland village for dinner. it has been pretty long since we last had this. was feeling full after that, but still i requested daddy to packet a set of dessert home for me... greedy me yea? but that also shows that my parents dote on me... which they would be generous when it come to their kids. oh did i mention that grandma might not be going to taiwan for a trip after all? cos godmum did not manage to get tickets for flying off this weekend, yes which means today or tomorrow. gonna to be pretty busy these 2 weekends. yeps, if you all know, it's chalet next week. and what about this week? gonna to take a look on some houses... no harm taking a look since it is not a sure thing that we might move out... oh yea, flu almost recovered, caught it on thursday night and nearly didn't get to work on friday as nose is blocked when i woke up on friday morning... but still i got myself out of my warm little bed and get prepared for work. since i knew it was friday, and there are many things to clear... especially when we don't work on weekends and we are customer service officers well, people have the tendancy to only call in to hotlines during weekends because they are working... alright i guess this is all. shall update soon. (: Wednesday, October 03, 2007
alright, did OT tonight (but not for very long...) cos apple was on half day leave...anyway work is pretty normal today. it was the lack of sleep that made me feel tired that's all. well, everyone seems to be getting all excited over weijie's purchase of proposal ring... after discussing it for like...*counting* three weeks? he have yet to decide which ring to purchase. and to make the situation tense, we are only away from the day he wish to propose in less than a week!! tagged along today to catch a glimpse of what he was actually eyeing for... therefore lunch hour was stretched to 2 hours straight. (: well, as a girl (not yet a woman) the designs that caught his eye do catch my eyes too. you just can't help it but to turn towards that direction when the ring is taken out from the glass display. so in short, his girlfriend is real lucky. (: it's mid of the week already, and daddy is gonna to be back in singapore soon! on top of that, grandma might be away for a taiwan trip real soon... i have yet to finish loading songs into the ipod shuffle that daddy wants to bring back this coming trip...but upon reaching home every night, i am really too tired to do that... actually the main aim of this entry was to post on the proposal ring matter since everyone in the office seems to be on it. everyone here refers to the lunch khaki that we always lunch out with... which if i do count... it would sum up to a total of at least 12 people? and soon, the chalet which is on the 13th will be the next thing in line. alright, time for bed... do sleep tight and i shall update real soon!! Tuesday, October 02, 2007
it marks the start of the new month yesterday.at the same time, it was 'mission impossible' for my department. cos' you have to imagine that there are tons of emails, calls, voicemails to reply within a day of 8 working hours. well, at times, OT would do the job better. and as time goes, it's actually easier to catch the attitude of callers. some actually will call you back and apologize for the ultra harsh attitude that they had given over the phone... harsh attitude here refers to vulgarities, personal remarks and more. but saying that, such cases are one out of a hundred for my case. apart from work, had the night out yesterday with colleagues. yea, had a good night in kbox. it has been a long time since i last enjoyed myself...well, in terms for singing. and because i am the youngest there last night, the guys must make sure that they send me home safely. well, which they did, all thanks to zhiliang who was the driver. managed to lie on my bed at 1am which i have to be awake by 7am this morning. was still feeling pretty much in dreamland when my alarm rang. didn't want to go to work today, but i was telling myself, no harm going since there are always new experiences for me everyday, even till now when i have already worked for 1 month. upon reaching office, the first line used by everyone on msn was, "had enough sleep?" well, naturally the answer is no... you should be wondering why am i still typing this entry at this moment of time when my eyelids can barely open... that's because i am worried that if i do drag on by not posting any entries, i might just forget on what to post. (: have you ever wondered when was the last time you sat down and spoke to your parents with regards to your personal matters? after so long, my sis and i had one with mummy, and it was for an hour... mainly on relationship matters. although both of us were single. but we still can't avoid the fate of being troubled by this issue. sometimes things may seem to be as easy as it is, but the fact that waiting for each other to open up first is a worry on its own. it just seems like i am waiting for the right moment to say certain things, or maybe i am waiting for the other person to do something. but in all, this takes two hands to clap. and confession doesn't come easy to everyone, the fear of being rejected appears far before you can prepare yourself to confess. (perhaps it just appears harder to girls) alright, my eyelids can barely open now. and this is indicating that it's really time for bed. shall find time to update soon! (: |
Goodbye.
