Juz finished watching first episode of season 2, The Swan
. Was moved by Jennifer's story. Her transformation was amazing - emotionally & physically.

Sally, if people are going gym 2 hrs a day to work out those flabs. What have you been doing har ??!!

整个十一月

Hi ;)

it's been more than a mth. hehe. had a fulfilling Nov.

went firefly tour with parents n sis on last sat of Oct. it was okay. my first time seeing the flies blinking in the dark. they light up the space like little bulbs hanging on trees.


then we went Kusu Island on Deepavali. eh, my last visit was 16yrs ago ok!? after praying, we found ourselves a cozy corner, and we simply lay for an hr. breezy...




then i spent my Nov long holiday in KL.. we drove by Malacca n we had some irresistible assam laksa n chendol. had mid-night Exorcism of Emily Rose, and took the steps up to Batu caves. but din seen any monkeys or bats though!



back to back on the 3rd weekend, sis check-in to the Changi Holiday Flat. we hv heard it wasnt fantastic, but thot can try since got voucher. But in the end we check-out the 2nd day morning. haha... no la, no hantu, but we reali miss our own flat already. but nevertheless, the 3 of us had a little fun watching the plane flying so low in the sky and slurp up a all whole table of yummy changi hakwer food.

n for the past two weekends, we had 2 bday celebrations for the nXf mad cow members. we drunk ourselves crazy at Devils Bar and caught Perhaps Love
at JB City Sq on Friday nite. i like the show. it was a little break through for HK films and I like the ending too.

And today, we went for Early Bird ktv at 11am. the 3 of us can just continue to sing for another 4hrs, but too bad Peng gotta go.

Things not too well in office, but since its low period, i hope its a good chance for all to review our directions in every way.

3 dear friends announced that they'd most probably hv their customary nex yr. have a good time babes!

好想谈恋爱

看了<<新娘18岁>>, 突然好想谈恋爱!!

PC clashed. so bought new parts. almost everything new. unplanned expenses. Plus, ALL MY PHOTOS ARE GONE!!! #$%*! myself to blame lo.. din write it to CD. trust ur instinct.. always.

my wish for my friends n love ones: may those ard me have peace at heart always. all goodness, love and harmony. forgive those who dun understand you. n forgive urself who u thot can be a better person. sleep well. and good solution wil come to you when u wake up.

my past few weekends were fantastic. we've visited the pasir ris playground and the guys... din change much actually ;)



and the Gossipers celebrated the Big Kidz Day at Peng's house.


and the many pretty faces in my everyday life

this josie ho, hv always think she's cool... hair i wanted..




n new style gotten..



hmm... so so bored w my rebonded-but-now-crooked hair. so i finally set my mind, i gave it a try. those bigger spiral perms. but... i think i need to go trim somemore.. abit long hor. anywayz, see how, i might juz snip it off a little more.

may good luck come as my new hair set. ;)

am i fat? am i stupid? do i not have a happy family..?? ..then y am i not happy?

Whew... beezy beezy beezy. always too short for rest, work AND play. I've given up my aqua-aerobics, too boring; i've completed my melayu class, but stil murmuring like an infant; went back to yoga; e only team-mate leaving this mth end (oh man!); room is stil messy w loads of cannot-fit-nicely clothes all over, n.. stil like to waste time checking junky emails n watch tv!

let's see. umm.. ok. went to see tarots tt day, monica confirmed everything in my head without me even speaking a word of my confusion. (hope it's not tt look on face tt gave me away!) she surprised me with other things too. the power of tarots. and its gd to receive some positive guidance when u need directions. she read:

work: i can stay on, but i need to learn to relax. the more anxious and perfectionist i am, the more things n details i'll miss out. cool. (ya la, maybe i dun need tarot cards to tell me tt, but stil.. ) n.. oh, i can be my own boss if i wan too *grinz*. i'll work hard!

love: i dunno how to love anyone. Pathetic. she's asked me to open my windows, if not even got love messenger come also cannot fly in. sigh, u think i dun wan meh.. but how. looking at these guys ard me.. sigh, suan le ba. anywayz, i'll try ok.

she has into me a book: Power of Subconscious Mind. quite a nice book. I seem to be able to handle situations better now. ya, crap. but e moral of the story is: monica and book is my means of clearing e bucket of doubts in my head. it's like clearing clotted blood vessels or clear ur um-um every morning. i've got back my directions n drive now. stay healthy. tt's wat. cheers!

hey man, if u r wat u think. nothing reali's very difficult. juz keep tt faith.

A view fr a corner at Pusu Island (ha!). Went BBQ tt day. It was fun. A reali simple but gd one.

The older i get, the more i'm amazed by the different personalities i met.

got ppl cheerful on e outside, had a great career, but attempted suicide, twice.

another one smart n steady in handling projects n business developments, but dunno how to let go personal feelings against others.

some were self-centered, leaving little space for outside world, n some others took things for granted, thinking things wil always be e same coz it always has been.

i'm not sure if they realised their action has impact on those ard them. sigh.. on my part? maybe i shd be bolder n tell them in their face how irritating they r. or maybe i shd learn to let go. or maybe i'll send my feedback if they care. but if they dun .... let it be ba. The Beatles also like tt say. no one's purrfect ok?!

hoo.. *yawn* .. gd nitez..

Project Superstar

... 我一向坚持自己的信念. Although he's got the least votes this round, I still believe tt he'll make it one day... http://superstar.channelu.com.sg/project/male.htm

And here's Sal+Lyn's post to him:

Well, guess ask u not to be sad is really hard n too demanding...but hey!!! See how many supporters leaving messages at this hour! (Excluding some ignorant guys out there) My sis n I been supporting you since Quan Min n reali wanna see you on tv and stage in near future...PLEASE DO NOT GIVE UP UR DREAMS OKAY!!!
Last nite's performance was good...We like your new image! We can all see e Wu-Ha in those dance steps!

n... We wan more of Choong's smile!! =)

P/S: childish game? i'm merely showing support to people I like. do something u like too... ;)

=] have been dipping in the pool past weeks. nice to be in water again. took up aqua eh-lo-bics with the CC and went swim after work w friends. seow-on man! haha.. hey, cool your mind too!

Do you know enough?

Yes, I left the org, like, 2 years ago. Help raised funds for 3yrs 8mths. I knew it'srich. We all know it's very rich. But other than tt, can you tell me other things abt tt u knw abt NKF? Tell me what are all the near 1000 staff doing everyday? What's its mission.. and things it has done and going forward, what bigger plans does it has for the country, or even, the neighboring countries, the world...?

Things aside, he's a great leader. It is really a little heart-ache to see this "superstar", so full of pride and drive, who used to walk ard in the office building, now helpless in front of Singapore. Sad to see due the limited source of information, and in a fit of anger, ppl jus took chance to pour paint on him... does it help?

I am not denying tht's a lack of honesty and good management to the funds. Indeed, having so much funds, we can easily think of so many other community projects that this big brother can do to help it's fellow charities, help create awareness for need of volunteerism, more R&D, etc etc.. But in this instance, I saw a human's greed overtook his initial heart of innocence, heart of gold who wants to give. If he has stayed the same, he would hv rejected big salaries. If he hadn't lied, it wouldn't happen. I hv learnt, too, tt we should all keep our basic morals and principles.

But if only he has stayed the same... can you always? I'll leave it to watever parties to take care of the responsibility he should be paying for tht "greed". I really hope he'll learn his lesson and we all can move on... And, if lacking of rules/transparency/ accountability of public funds is the problem, I hope it is dealt with fairly across the charities/non-profits. If no rules are being set, dun tell me I'm wrong. I'm sure there are other many "same story". It's up to the teacher to catch those who cheated in class.

I'm more pro than I thot I wld be. things got so out of hand and ppl reacted so harshly tt I thot ... what the heck.

tt's always 2 side to the coin. have we try to see two sides before we judge things? ...

my pick

i did it again. I've conf w him all but pagination n went ahead to print 50 booklets. I reali think e words are visible. I thot I've cover it all by doing it earlier this yr. but i did wrong again. so i ask for advise. it says tt i'm too absent-minded, no vision, no planning, no relfection of my own journey this far; i'm in a fragaile stage now and no one can help me expect myself; running away wil not help me... Me, pls help me.

oh man! juz watched the long waited Initial-D!! It's reali nice! No... not just because Jay is in there, but it's reali an exciting and entertaining show..e many familiar faces rocks too! 10 of 10 popcorns!


jay @ my bus stop!!

Sally,

Unexpected changes in your career can bring sudden changes to your financial condition. This may come in the form of an unexpected windfall, but also may indicate an unplanned expenditure. Remember, you are likely to react impulsively now as your mind makes quantum leaps. Don't assume that your brilliant thinking is without flaws. Reconsider your actions before you do something you may later regret.

** so true. boss told me tt i need to pay out of my pocket for my oversight. *sian*

hi! had a gd wkend? i did.. ;) juz blew out e candles for my 18th... oh, ok, 28th birthday. The guys gave me a dinner treat @ HK St Rest, then we went visit vincent's hse across the streets. when we were at yiwei's car happily taking fotos.. thinking no one wil notice us, i suddenly saw this slim figure walking pass... Mae lo! haha... hihi, Mae, here's the foto tht JD took. think i better lose some kilos soon, man.

I can stil be fumbling for words n all they need to do is to apply the theory n shoot. gosh.. n i hv to forced myself to go thru the scary hi-elements too. it's a mental-block la, maybe. see how la. there r things in life, dun like also muz do.

anyway. update u guys again. cant wait for it to be over. amen. looking fwd to vesak day, certainly. planning to go kelong... yay!

been running ard past 2 weeks.

* went kara on sat [n hated K-x's attitude]. SuperBrand?!

things i do not look fwd to: empty workdesk; sit infront of pc n wait for time to pass

lunch tomolo: roti w campbell soup
dinner this sat: seafood @ sli's pl + free flow tequila + korean soapy-muvee!

Stole this pic fr my sis. our new member in the family. mama found this thing in a little drain, breath weak fr hunger. she wanted to leave it alone initially. very well she knws going thru another heartache of seeing a dear pet sleeping forever isnt easy. but stil, yu xin bu ren, she took it up, and took it back. it's now jumping and feeding itself rabbitly at our door.


n my mum wil go: Wee Wee!

ps:btw, all our pet hamsters and rabbit has been named Wee Wee for convenience's sake.


And kids, after filtering, here's some Quotes of The Day:

You can only go as far as you push!

Nobody is perfect until you fall in love with them.

Don't cry over anyone who won't cry over you.. (but)

What do you do when the only person who can make you stop crying is the person who made you cry?

juz went out with the girls again. and like every other time too, i enjoyed myself. it's gd to be together again for a while - to catch up, to exchange some stories heard, and best of all, tickle ourselves with those good old memories! .. ya, like "what do u used to put in ur skirt pocket after recess??" haha... some soggy but yummy fried wanton?! oh man, Mae n Jessie! it sort of turns my appetite off for now =(

In exchange for lending out my Amile, Foong Yee passed me "one of the gd show", Pay It Forward. It's an inspiring story, reali. And with the little Haley Joel Osment, it cant be very wrong rite.. keke.. i mean he's good. it's all in his eyes. anyway, here's my fave quote:

"Some people are too scared or something to think things can be different. The worlds not exactly...shit. I guess it's hard for some people who are so used to things the way they are - even if they are bad - to change and they kinda give up and when they do, everybody loses."

Now.. are you afraid of changes? And.. is everything reali tt bad?

my mind went wondering this morning when i was in the train, dragging myself to work. and as i stare into the blank space, some numerials start to float in my mind:

my handphone: reaching 3yrs this aug.
my current job: coming to 2yrs this july. huh? so fast?!
my best buddy: it's the 14th yr since i know him
e tee shirt i wore on sat: wah.. bought tt 8 yrs ago!

well.. everything's pretty much the same, but somehow nothing seems to be the same anymore. strange huh?

and recently i got this strange logic i've found for myself: buying a new handphone is like finding a partner. I wan camera, bluetooth, stylish design, easy messaging, good storage memory, big LCD display yet handy n light enuf. And above all, i wont pay more than $500. Yup. "Where to find?!" u screamed. Exactly lo! That's y i rather not buy. Y forced urself? Cannot meet my criteria one i wont take second look. Can meet criteria, but overbudget one also cannot. Kekeke. So.. i'll update you when i got my ideal phone ok? ;]

Sally,
You might have mixed feelings about work now, even if things seem to be going your way. This isn't about success; it's about your own special purpose. Take time to dream about your perfect job or career. It doesn't matter if it is far off from your present reality. No action is necessary. If this is a path you'd really like to follow, you'll know soon enough.

Hmm.. busy boss raised his voice at me today. xia dao wo.. maybe he's right. i din take time n efforts to learn the "directions to jurong park". i give myself excuse that i dun drive, so dunno also nvm. i recognise my fault.

but on the other hand, i wun accept "busy" as an excuse to lose temper. today not once hor, it's a few times ok?! over silly things. i din say anything. i din talk back n no intention to. i told myself: hv a bigger heart la. no need to take everything so seriously. he cannot take stress mah, so leave him alone. i reali dun wan to act e same way as he is.

it's only the begining that our business begin to pick up. n i'm expecting alot more resistance fr the trainers for putting things into proper processes. if we dun start this now, we'll never get to anywhere. i'm begining to see a little results. so muz work hard!

sigh, come lo! make me angry la! hmp!

Zhen XiuZhen reminds me of myself somehow. Ano..

Hi! So sorry.. so long never update. Lazy la. keke..

Anyway, my Taipei trip was good. Juz that 3 days is abit short. Somemore winter+rainy, din get to go to the famous mountains and hot-spring bath. Will defintely go back for a 12-day tour to take chance to see the other parts of the country. Stil hv the NT in my purse. They say if you keep some currency of the country on your first visit, you'll return to it again...

And... Hermmy. He's given his first talk in Tampines Library today. Ha. That ah boy, cant believe he did it. Never seen him speaking in public, but now he's doing it. This is reali amazing. Talk abt no confidence n all, but he's handling it so cool n steadily. I reali think he did a great job. Let's hope it'll open more doors ok ;)

Hv u ever felt so distant to someone u once so close with? She started to draw away fr the gp ever since she found a bf. Got married, n now happy w a kid. She make little efforts in maintaining frienship for the past... 4 yrs? Tht's how I felt. It is not wrong. No.. We juz took different paths. I shared w mama the story, n she quoted me a few other examples. There r ppl tht you'r a little disappointed w, but am sure there r ppl whom u stil care. And for her, no regrets. I took her truely. And even if it means "The End", I thank her for the memories. And I tell myself - I need to get use to this anyway. She's only the first case. Many more will drop away as I get older, so wat's e big deal.

And now, my only energy booster: start planning for another short trip with my friends soon again!! Hope to go Redang nex for some sun or maybe KL to see fire fly... Planning a yr-end count down out-of-Spore also. *dreamy...*

ok - 11.42pm. gotta end liao. Gotta sleep soon. Good Nite ..Zzz...

Hi! Happi New Year..! err.. ya la, 7days liao. ha. trying to sort out my thots. so many things are happening everyday, but reali too tired to jot down.

umm...let's see. i'm faced w challenges in dealing the people-differences recently -esp among my gp of friends and in workplace. hate e role of being middle-man. hate to curb my emotions coz i need to b responsible for my actions towards bosses, client, colleagues. life is so short n get-together time is so precious, n yet, there will always b ppl trying to mess ard w empty promises and taking things for granted.

am i not coping? no, i think i did well. i hv learnt n am fortunate tht i'm able to recognise these differences n get along w it. but how long can i hang in there? i'm reali not sure. always initiating gatherings, always absorbing e impact of being a in-between.. it's reali not easy to b a people-person. i wish i am more spoilt, more bitchy. y shd i wanna stand fr everyone's pt of view n understand things? torn.

this yr's 28. well...when i was young, i thot i like this number very much. it shd b an age of success, a woman of this age shd b at her most attractive, n happiest. a mordern woman who knws wat she wans for herself... n yes, perhaps, a gd age to settle down too. but... i'm here. wat hv i got?

c'mon, it's new year .. hvn't u got anything happier to share?? .. ok la, i'm going taipei coming wed. ha.. finally. u knw - HK, taiwan, japan, greece. but b4 i go, let me continue to remind myself of 'people-differences'. i reali wan to enjoy myself.

well, anyway, it's a gd time of e yr to set some agenda for myself b4 e nex dec comes - i wanna keep my promise to my bosses & myself, i'll help stada grow. pl in pl the necessary processes and well, set up sound databases, web & portal.. n those marketing tools, events etc etc. there's so much i wanna. i wan to make them come true. pray for me ok?

n on ending note, of coz, not forgetting how e tsunami is affect the whole region n how amazing ppl can come together so quickly to help; e merger of the two channels finally took pl; n e 2 new adidas watch as well as 10 pieces of new cutie tofu mascot we've bought. keke..

*yAwN*.. need to stop here liao. take care. tok more nex time!
