1 year!

It's been exactly 1 year since I started blogging. Today last year marked some event, a departure, a new beginning of an old story. Lots of things have happened during this time, most of those have never been told in my blog :p. Anyway feel a little bit regretted coz' deleted the last blog I've got, nothing to read about that sentimental time anymore, =phewz=

Didnt have the feeling of the end of this year until today when I came to OSA. Everyone was saying Happy New Year to each other in the office. It really is the air of the last working day of a year.... Everyone seems to be happy and so .. Tiger and B3 too huh? Btw today is B3's 1 year bdae too :p

Was pretty busy actually, got lots of stuff to finish before the office is closed for new year. Was the last ISA to leave the office. Hah but better got things to do than lazing around with nothing in hand.

How many things have changed? ...

3am ...

... and I'm still up at this hour. What am I doing? Not even too sure, just dont feel like sleeping at all ... Got too excited? or too bored? or whatever?

Rummie is sleeping soundly now, but still got two other piggies still awake to keep me busy chatting. Who else other than hippo and jubnov? :p

Will have to be at OSA at 9am tomorrow, and I'm now sitting here feeling like my eyes are opening as wide as ever. Afraid if I jump to bed, rummie will complain again tomorrow that I shout in my dreams again :p ... But dear rummie, can you plz be prepared next time to hear clearly what I shouted about? V curious actually hmm, you know I can't remember what I dream about :p

Still don't feel like going to sleep ... actually a little bit uplifted about smt ...

Hope that tmr I wont be sleeping inside OSA ... zzzz

The food, the Big Gorilla, and the sea

A dim sum buffet might be ideal for those of you who are as keen on prawns as I am. The place is quite big and very crowded even though it is Monday during lunch time. More than that, you can always go outside to have a look at the sea and the huge Merlion.

The place? Dragon Gate Restaurant, HarbourFront center :p

King Kong is a touching movie, though quite sad in the end. All kinds of wild animals, including apes like gorilla or king kong or monkey :p, should be left alone where they really belong ... However, it would have been perfect if they have focused a little bit more on the scene of the sunset at the end of the movie, as it best describes the feelings of King Kong at the time ... Anyway I'm not the director :p

It's always the best to indulge yourself with the sound of the waves and water by the beach at the end of the day, watching the setting sun (that paints the tie died sky :D).

And so it has finally come to an end, better than I thought. Ready for a whole new period to come :)

Scared ...

I am, very much, of tomorrow ...

Feeling lost ...

Upon HYP and job

Today had the 1st HYP meeting after a long break for exams and stuff. Heh everything feels so brand new though been trying to catch up back with things. Guess I need to put A LOT more effort on it. But got a clear pix of what's going to be done next, so hope I could concentrate during this time.

Then suddenly sup asked all of us what are our plans next after this year, and everyone seemed to stop for a while ... Come to think about it, what's my next plan? I'm not even sure now ... very very blur actually!

How come I feel like I'm letting it float to where it belongs ...

Want to go somewhere else for further study, but have no time and money to prepare for that at this moment. Think I wont be able to make it right after next July ... Then want to stay in Spore wif all of you guys and start my work here, but then smt is getting so complicated I just dont think I shd stay back ... Somehow want to go back to VN too, as maybe that's really the place I should be back. Mum and dad have been waiting for long already, and though they are willing to wait longer, should I be away for more? Arghhh so confusing now!!

A few weeks ago when I was still back at home in VN, mum said during a dinner:
- The most ideal solution is you stay back in Spore to work for a few years, then get married there and come back here.

Eyes popping out, I was like:
- HUH!?!!!??? But mum, what if he's from HCM city or somewhere else? Din you say you wouldn't go anywhere else?!!?? And then get married THERE!??? It doesn't sound like mum is saying 8-}.

- hmm ... no problem leh. As long as it's within VN, I'll go wherever you go ...

- ... errrr ... dad what do ya think?

- You decide yourself! - as always dad said 3:-o - as long as you choose the rite one.

Hmmm actually mum's changing her mindset, previously mum said she would not go anywhere else except Hanoi. Waw thanks to globalisation, even mum's being affected haha. So hello! Now my choice has been opened up to anyone from any parts of VN, wahaha!! sadly enough, who'd take a troublesome girl in :p.

Then today sup also told us that there would be some RA positions available in our area, and if we would want to stay back in NUS after this year, we may seek help from him... Hmm hmmm sounds interesting ... but but ... stay back in Spore? more than that stay back in NUS? *grasp* ... *rolling eyes* ...

In a final note, today went to UHWC to have a checkup on skin, and man! i've lost another 1 kg T_T. How could it be!!! been eating so much still lose weight?!?? :'(. Grrr must start claiming weight back again x(!!!

Pix pix pix!

OMG can you believe that this HUGE bear only costs 39.90S$!?!!!??? Freaking cheap!! Catch one if ya wanna impress your sweetheart and you want her to feel like holding you every night even when you're not there :p. Available at Carefour, Suntec city ^_^ (errr this is a blog entry, not an ad for your information!).

Anyway ... hmmm .. for those who stay in hostel, I'm afraid ur gf will have to kick it out of bed if she wants to have a comfortable sleep at night as the bed is too small for 2. (heh ... come to think about it, for those as tiny as I am, it wont be such a big problem, see the advantage of being small now?)


So cuteeee man!!! I want to hug this little cutie so much, but noone bought it for me T_T!! But it's really cute =p~




Hik I should have worn my high heel ughh ... But I must admit that all members in our group really have a taste for "art" when it comes to choosing a partner haha *wink at Ky*

Good luck!

... for the interview tomorrow. Really wanna tell ya but have no way now ... But praying hard for it to go well ..

Rain ..

It's raining outside, a heavy rain with thunders in the middle of the day. Feeling so serene ... Don't know since when I started to like the rain ... very long ago already ... maybe I was still a very small girl then.

What's so special about it?

Firstly, I love rainbow. Though it's hard to see rainbow nowadays after the rain, the scene of one hanging in the air is so beautiful I couldn't help smiling to myself and watching it until it fades away .. During my childhood, I always believed that at the end of a rainbow, there must be some hidden treasure, or 2 loving ppl crying in happiness to find each other again after being apart for too long. The result of reading too many story books!

Secondly, I love the clouds after the rain. Esp. during summer time back there in VN, after a heavy shower, the clouds are always brightened up and they look exactly like cotton candy on the sky ... If you happen to be depressed one day, go outside after it rains and look up at the clouds so bright above, you'll know how much it lifts you up ..

Most of gals are scared of thunders, and I don't deny I'm also startled everytime there's a loud sound :p. But still, I love rain the most when it goes with thunderstorms :">. Again what is good about thunder when you've got to find a place to hide from it? Just that the rain will be very heavy then ... The feeling of changing, and the wind will surely blow strong ..

I used to be so crazy that I took out my motorbike and drove out to the streets during a very heavy rain, just to feel the raindrops tapping to my face, just to feel that something is caressing and comforting me ... And the truth is everytime it rains, I do feel someone is coming beside and help me to wash away all the troubles. After the rain, the sun always shines ... after the rain, I always smile :">

That was about long time ago back there when I was still in VN. Now, I still love rain, I think even more ... As time passes by, I've come to get so many more memories under the rain ... Walking to school in a rainy early morning, sitting by the window at the top floor of S16 in the middle of the night listening to the rain, running all the way across the stadium under the rain with the small hope of catching after a bus, standing on the ground outside honor lab feeling the rain pouring down ...

That is how Spore rain means to me =). And I know, my love for rain will only grow deeper, and deeper ...

You and me ..

Been wandering alone today when I passed by a cafe' and heard this song performed by 3 western men. I've heard this song for some times, but never have I felt it so much like today when I heard it live ... I stood outside the cafe', stared at the main singer, and it was like the whole world outside was gone ... Overwhelmed with lots of feelings...

So bad I never got to know who they are, they may be just some amateur singers, but they were really good ...

And this is the original version

You and me - Lifehouse



What day is it? And in what month?
This clock never seemed so alive
I can't keep up and I can't back down
I've been losing so much time

Cause it's you and me and all of the people with nothing to do
Nothing to lose
And it's you and me and all of the people
And I don't know why, I can't keep my eyes off of you

All of the things that I want to say just aren't coming out right
I'm tripping on words
You've got my head spinning
I don't know where to go from here

Cause it's you and me and all of the people with nothing to do
Nothing to prove
And it's you and me and all of the people
And I don't know why, I can't keep my eyes off of you

There's something about you now
I can't quite figure out
Everything she does is beautiful
Everything she does is right

Cause it's you and me and all of the people with nothing to do
Nothing to lose
And it's you and me and all of the people
And I don't know why, I can't keep my eyes off of you

and me and all of the people with nothing to do
Nothing to prove
And it's you and me and all of the people
And I don't know why, I can't keep my eyes off of you

What day is it?
And in what month?
This clock never seemed so alive

Super crappy crazy gals :p

Welcome Thao to our super "me^ chai" group :">. Seriously, I think the syndrome is becoming infectious and getting worse to all the members! Though I'm the one who's most controllable of myself about the problem (*grin*), I'm still urged to *act upon request* like yesterday. Who could be brave enough (:-&) to hold the hp running around and try to take pic in all poses of a stranger leh! *tsk tsk*, this is incurable already :((

Eh but dun be misunderstanding, we're not that hopeless okie? Remember that our group is now opening up to even attached ppl *bleah*. It's just that ... beauty is the most important thing that needs to be praised and ... watched! So we're just trying to preserve a treasure of nature :"> :">

Nothing wrong about that yah? *evil grin*

However, the price for making effort to save back images of beauties is not cheap at all. Ended up getting wet thru' under the rain waiting for taxi coz' no more MRT at the time T_T. Taxi in Spore is super crappy also. How dare you run off our noses while you're so free with no customers in, when it's after midnight already and when you see the 3 lovely-lively-chubby ( :@) ) gals so desperated under the getting-heavier-rain!?!?!!!!!! *smack taxi*!!

But in the end got this driver who was so nice and who knew how beautiful girls look like :"> :">. So we managed to escape before many other hopeless couples did (don't say poor them can? at least they have each other to hug so won't feel cold. 3 of us ... cannot hug lah! will look so unacceptable !!)

Anyway I?n, when will the pix be out =p~. Don't let my effort come to a waste :((
