whee

okay lets see.

monday i went for alldressedup's fashion show. eug's mum had hsbc invites. i saw alot of nice clothes;) and ugly models with poor posture haha. now i understand why models have to be tall. so tt even ppl sitting at the back can see them ahah. anw i lk their dresses and one of the knee length shorts. :D

today i went for my first firefly interview. i really think mas doesnt want me anymore, so my dear classmates, stop the 'be-a-bachelorette' joke! ;D anw interview today was quite relaxing. i felt lk i was more on a social visit to edb.

(on a btw note, my mum bought all the dachangjing dvds. so everynight im watching it. )

not sure if i told anyone but i had an idea when after i went highpoint halfway hse with mr ng and min and i pitched it to the edb guy today. (anw im quite sure ive seen the guy before. either tt or he's super lk mr chew) and the edb guy actually said its quite a gd idea. okay maybe just a small talk thg but hmm. :)

its raining men!

i always seem to miss my bus on rainy days. i missed my shuttle bus again today. but nevertheless i love it when it rains.
(and i also forgot to bring my hp out)

went cycling with my darling yesterday morn and it was drizzling so it felt quite nice. except that i am totally out of shape cos now my butt hurts. and i felt so lazy tt we didnt cycle at east coast, we only cycled TO east coast. so lousy ahha. but it was fun;D

went tk on sat morn and managed to talk to a few teachers. feels quite gd to see them again, although i felt ancient even among the prefects bcos there was nobody i actually really knew. wells.

i was really late for my meeting with my class girls after tt but hahah i lk the shirt they gave me. i lk wad it says, it almost seems lk those words came out frm my mouth and got printed there on the tshirt. anw I MISS HAVING FRENS arnd me all the time. so wad are army guys complaining about??

i cant wait for chorale to perform nxt week. we are so (not) prepared. ;D

cozy canopy

my class. yay.

just so my sis can see my new hair. ahha.

i've grown!

took a day off today;) just couldnt imagine myself working today. went back schools today to certify documents. mrs kong commented tt i've 'beefed up'. darn it. anw. im convinced tt im a big kuku. but anyways, dinner was great. haha.

i didnt know they painted tk that ugly orange colour. orange and green so totally do not match (think janice haha). i was so horrified when i walked through the foyer and saw the patches of orange walls. not just normal orange, dull orange. YUCKS.

vj looks the same. ;D saw nelson at the office, but we didnt talk much. anw i cant wait to see the choir at the exchange thg nxt sat. ( i think its nxt sat.)

angie's durian cake rocks! ahha.

im not authorized to view my own blog?

call me un-tech-savvy but yeah, tt page popped out when i tried to view my blog. anw eug and janice are coming my hse laters;D and thurs meet up was fun. i miss the girls so much. we just linked hands and walked through the whole of city link. and chatted. a lot. ah. food at glutton's bay isnt as fantastic as i thot it wld be, but oh wells. wished i cld have stayed on longer cos there was a band there that sounded quite nice.

see a new me frm tmr onwards! ;D hint. my mane is going away.

nanny mcphee!

finally watched it today. my underworld-cum-datemovie friends dont appreciate brit humour. so i asked my mum along;D anw i just felt lk i wanted to watch a movie tonight. was reallly tired at work..;) my mum had a headache watching the movie though, dont know if its a gd or bad thg;) the kids were really dreadful in the beginning.

i love brit humour. hee.

suddenly i see

suddeny i remembered the reason why i wanted to study overseas. it was because i wanted to get away from all these. by saying this i dont really mean i hate where i am now, cos i feel unnaturally patriotic to singapore in most ways and i know i will always return here wherever i may go. its not a bad place to be, really. maybe im just the kind of person who cant stay long at one place, or maybe its just me feeling rebellious. but the feeling that i want to be on my own was very strong and still is.

home makeover!

went ikea today. apparently there was a sale;) it was really crowded. i saw alot of things that i wanted to buy and put in my hse, but when i came back home i realised that by doing that i wld have to throw away alot of thgs that are still usable. So. until i get my own hse, i shall try to refrain from destroying home property;)

bought an orange lampshade tho! ahha. cldnt resist it, it was only six bucks. realllyyy pretttyy. and im planning to put photo frames all arnd my room. and i saw a yellow com desk! just a very simple one, and it was quite affordable. ;) i still wan a rocking chair but my room is reallyy too small. if i DO stay in sg to study, i mum suggested that i move into my sis's room which is obviously much bigger. then i can get my rocking chair. but then that wld mean that there will be two yellow rooms in my hse then;) ,muahah.

IF i do stay in sg. and i dunno if thats a gd thg or bad thg to me. i still cant decide. shall take my time to.

psst. ps. ive been writing the past two entries on my new laptop;)

meantime. its back to work tmr;(

you're on the other side of the world to me

had a happy day today. although i skipped chorale. and horny night. went for uni open houses with my class ppl. although we had one little boy whom we had to keep an eye on cos he kept walking off by himself, and a honourary member of our class who kept making weird comments(haha) it was really enjoyable. and of cos, although the fact that we ended up (as usual) with the guys dotaing. but hm okay. they're pardoned. cos army boys will still be boys. since i got my balloons ;)

anw met an old fren of mine today. and i felt quite happy about it. its great to see ppl whom you have not seen for a longgg time. ;)

another first day

but the people are definitely friendlier and easier;) all thanks to dawn's nice friend. the work's better too cos i get to do my own stuff and she does check on them but tts only for the first few days cos after tt im kinda on my own.

to give a run-down, i get less material benefits(eg. nice pantry, free coke, nice neat and clean working environment, lotsa paper clips and files and what-nots) but i get more satisfaction on the job(nicer ppl and more interesting job). so yay.

i can even go msn:D

also, danny frm butak pantai works here too. he's really tall in real life. and he looks less shy. complete with the messy hairdo;)

during lunch my "boss" was tryin to get her colleagues to guess my age. after which one grilled me on why i want to study law. edrea said its an occupational hazard cos he does all the in depth stuff. but anw it was nice to have lunch with ppl who are alive and kicking and talking.

the nxt job im gettin, im gonna get one that allows me to wear jeans to work.

ps. im gettin cpf too. arghhhh.

saturday= tummy-upset day

yup today i woke up to an upset tummy. again. it has to happen every sat. bah.

anw im glad that results are finally out(im still living as if it was wed, yes) cos its a load off everybody's mind. we were having lunch at jack's plc and i met an old teacher of mine so i went off to say hi, and when i came back to the table rai went 'yunie ur name's on the board. sorry i read ur msg, but yeah. its on the board' i couldnt believe it. well i still cant believe i got an A for econs but i did. hail jack. and im pretty proud of my maths;) i have john nash in me.

and let me congratulate my best friend the top scorer of singapore here;) am so happy for her;) MUACKS

but i start work nxt monday. boo.

and shame on shawn and lucas. booooo.

btw i lost all my photos AND songs cos my com crashed. im very sad. so friends, if you have time or smthg (pls do find time) try to burn a cd of all the pics we took togther? thanksss. or u can try to send to me to my gmail account. greatly appreciated alright? or ill have to crash ur hse one day and make myself comfortable.;)

party away!

went to highpoint halfway house today with mr ng and minxuan. i felt the old sv feeling creepin back. its really weird. now my mind's swimming with ideas. i shall make one of them come true one day. ;) oh but im pretty proud of myself cos my brain is still working. i can still make astute observations (ta-daaa!)

anw smthg really quite remarkable happened today. this uncle called me up and asked if i knew a young girl by the name of *****. i didnt recognise the name but the uncle continued to say that he picked up a wallet and it had my name and number and email add on it. so i thot for a while and i realised it shd be one of the east spring girls' wallet! anw i met up with this uncle who was really nice and kind to return the wallet. when i saw the photo on the ez-link card i immediately recognised the girl. ;) anw tmr im going down to the sch to return the wallet. since im so free.

;) two more dayssss. so lets partyy awaaayyyyyy.

bum bum

alright so ive been bumming around for three days alr. and i guess i do like it. so far. i looked into the newspapers today and i saw alot of recruit express stuff, guess i might be callin them up pretty soon. cant sit arnd and do nthg rite.
i tried paintin my lamp today but it turned out horribly ugly because the paint wont stay on the surface of the lamp, so you dont get a solid colour. and the texture's blimey. so i washed it off (its washable!! hai.) and now its white again. shall try again tmr. maybe i shd try smthg else, lk dots or smthg. easier huh;)

anw had driving again today and yay my instructor said im gd. although i still mount kerb when i did the sharp turn in the circuit but hey, fourth lesson only and im almost done with module one. woohoo. actually i was dreading driving lessons cos well, its scary (although in a fun way) and i really think its a waste of money cos its so expensive. but oh wells ive already started so i cant stop now. its lk eating junk food.

i think im falling in love with my new hse. i love the wind even though it blows the curtains all over the place and tying them up is a chore. and sometimes it gets quite cold in the night. and the ouside traffic is quite noisy. but i lk my hse;) its airy and bright and my room's yellow haha so, yay. :)

did i say ive been replaced?

well today marks my last day in my law firm. ive been replaced by a permanent secretary. i bought a box of nice biscuits frm marks&spencer and i went around offering them to my colleagues. i think it was a great way to strike up a conversation with them, over delicious smelling chocolate biscuits (esp when its late morn and everyone's hungry but you know its not really time for lunch yet;) ) and oh wells. ahha. its great talkin to ppl and gettin to know them and what they've done in their life. this lawyer who works really hard actually talked to me for bout ten minutes, and eventually tried to get me to buy a book about law from one of our colleagues. (haha). and then i went out for lunch with this funny colleague of mine who's really friendly and hip (cos she loves shoes too hee) and we actually went all the way to bras basah cos she wanted to get this precious moment bible. girlsss.:)
but too bad i wont ever get to see them again. but quite an experience.

today was my first driving lesson. today was also the first time i ever touched a steering wheel. today was also the first time i felt a car stall. five times. or maybe more, i didnt keep count.
tmr will be better. :) but it definitely was fun driving a car. woohoo!

who says you cant be productive at work? 

my favourite. i think it looks lk a shrub;) 

well another one. 

howdie mate

haha aust was fun(sorry this is lk, a wk late). i love the weather. its cold and sunny. but everytime the wind blows i wished i was back in singapore. i dont think i can stand cold weather that well.. as much as i love cold winds, i dont think i wld wan to live with it all my life!
and i lk melb's fashion. its all long skirts and half tops and big chunky necklaces and big belts. haha. and its summer sale over there now, although it isnt VERY cheap but hey its still quite a bargain. heh i just love shoppin. only thg bout melb was that u cant shop for shoes cos they nv have my size.
was abit sad coming back to singapore. i kept thinking about going back to work and how dreadful it wld be. but oh well today i helped to draft documents cos these few days my boss is really quite busy. and haha now everyone knows how fierce she can get. its scary, but then again i try not to cross her path too much:)
i had a really gd lunch with bing today. ate at asian kitchen(heh) and had xiao long baos(ha). cant wait for xiamen. then we can have it everyday! ahha.

im just glad the washing machine's fixed so we can finally wash clothes. and i spent the whole of last night ironing clothes. its not working i tell you. clothes never straighten. bad iron. haha today my dad did it and he finished it hahaha. yeah my dad rocks;)

i need to go exercise real soon. i really can feel the fats burning when i sit and slouch at my desk every day.

;)

gong xi fa cai

helloo everyone happy new yr! i spent three wonderful days in malaysia and am going to spend five more wonderful days in australia. i think i liked this yr's cny cos i got to talk to many of my relatives and also not talk to my least favourite relatives HA.
too bad i didnt get to go eug's hse this noon (heard the boys got dark and vulgar tsktsk) but i went for silicon valley gathering once i got back frm malaysia. not alot were present but i think it still made me feel lk a great passioneer. just that i honestly think no one can ever do a replicate of our sv trip. but it felt great to recall my time spent in usa.
yup okay im flyin off later tonight so everyone take care. have a great chinese new yr!

lunch-time

yay ill be meeting eug this sat so we can go shoppin (okay, so I can go shoppin;) and maybe ill drag her to the library too. i seriously think i shd learn to read more.

i realised that if i write about my work experiences it shd be quite interesting for all you friends of mine to read.

anw in short lets just say now i know how to make warm water. ie. mix normal water with hot water from thermos flask.

also. i know how to ask my boss questions about everythg before we actually send smthg off. she nearly gave me a heart attack when she asked for a courier to help send smthg off. luckily i asked the courier how long he'd take to send the stuff or we'd never have found out. i called the courier boss up and he was so nice. gosh. i must have sounded terribly worried anw:)

anw yesterday we had wonderful popeye's chicken with bock n janice. after dinner we must have walked that stretch of airport five times, up and down. haha. and we went to all the couple hot-spots. ahhaha. oh n i bought turkish delight frm candy empire shop. think narnia.. ;)
the nxt time im travellin, eg. 31st jan, i wanna go in early and shop! or look arnd. or at least eat inside. then when we come back... oh darn cant. i wanted to go check out the swimming pool. anw i took the brochere so i know all the gd stuff inside alr;)

"we do good ba-you!" --popeye's (someone really have to find out what this means...)
