Just received a call from Kelly Services for a convention assignment on the 13th-16th June. Finally got to work for a few days!!! Bored to death already.
Anyway just completed packing my room!! Finally manx!! Dug out alot of wonderful memories i had during my school days - all the organizers, diaries, notes, bookmarks and many others. Ya.. i still kept the organizers i used back when i was in jc. haha... so many rubbish and nonsense jotted into them. Sent me laughing while reading some of them. School life has officially ended for the time being. Gonna embrace a new stage of life soon!!! Beginning to miss school life already. In fact i miss the days of wearing uniform to school everyday and have fun with my dear frens and teachers. Haha.. thank goodness all my uniforms have fitted me pretty well and colour combinations were pretty good.. er.. except for AJ uniform which looks like the ex-MRT staff uniform. But i think AJ uniform look pretty smart lei... of cuz gals' skirt must be short la.. too long makes one looks so kuku.. haha.. The guys weren't that bad looking in AJ uniform either. So by comparing us with ex-MRT uniform, of cuz AJ uniform is a better choice. And i must declare: I still like AJ uniform!!! haha..

Back with a new life to moi blog!!! It has been given a new look, new skin, new substance and new form. Thanx to Yang for helping me. I still have difficulties uploading pics la.. will learn soon.. haha
Oh well, just return home from fren's overnight birthday celebration. Stayed over at fren's godma's house and it's just like a chalet la.. in fact it's even better a chalet cuz everyone gets a bed to sleep on. It's never possible to squeeze all 10 over people into one chalet and get everyone rested. Wonderful idea to hold the celebration at this perfect place. Perhaps we can have it in December again when the house is vacant again.. *grinz*
While playing mahjong last nite, i received news of the the departure of my fren's dad. Poor fren of mine has suffered the demise of his mum just last month and now it's his dad. Really feel very sorry for him. Can't help thinking how fragile life can be and once lost it will be forever. Yet again, there are things in life that you must experience its loss before realizing how much you value the dear ones all this while. Of course, we wouldn't wish to regret only when the pain sets in. As i have always believe, live life with no regrets - appreciate the valuables you have in hand now, once they flowed out, you may not be able to grab it anymore.
I may be able to state this belief of mine but it's not easy for me to honour this belief. Easier said than done!!! I wouldn't want to regret in future, that's why i am holding back. I wouldn't want to regret in future, that's why i am letting go. Earthlings are too contradicting a creature. There are always two sides to a coin.. which one should i land on??? I guess i have the answer already, all i need is just a little tidying up of my thoughts and put all into a complete piece.

Finally completed my book by Dave Pelzer!!! After er… almost a year or even longer. But it’s this book that sustained me many nights and holidays.. haha
In the last chapter, I came across this sentence
‘By creating relationships where the first priority is mutual love and concern for all, we overcome the indifference, domination, and submission that create problems in the first place.’
Feel guilty upon reading this cuz I still find it hard to accept the differences among the people around me. I remember there was once I quarreled with a close friend and she told me that despite all the negative points that everyone has, she insisted in overcoming these differences and accept the person as he/she is. But somehow I beg to differ. Until now, I couldn’t accept this fact all the time and need to undergo a struggle each time I met with similar situation of having to even out the differences I had with my dear ones.
I have always believed in giving and taking and that compromise is the pillar of relationships. I understand that it’s not possible to change another person but all we have to do is to take a step back when the need arises and if you treasure the relationship you create. I don’t deny that sometimes I stood to my stand and not listening to advices but I am still trying to overcome this stubborness of mine. Well, if it’s not possible to change others, start with yourself!!!
4:31 PM
Sometimes you just cannot believe that things happened for a reason. And the series of incidents that occurred this morning made me believe more…
Woke up early this morning to take a jab for my hk trip that starts tomorrow. Well, usually I wake up at 10plus in the morning if I do not have anything on in the afternoon. And just so nice that me and mummy had breakfast together after donkey years (cuz I seldom wake up early and so I haven been going market with mummy for a long time let alone eating breakfast at the hawker centre).. Ok… so we had breakfast.. and we saw neighbors that we haven seen for a long time. So we started to chit chat for quite a while. Then finally I can make my way to the clinic for my jab.
At the clinic, the assistant whom I met 21 years ago is still working there. She is still serving the same doctor. The doctor is my dad’s long-time fren. Haha.. everything feels the same but with a little more warmth. Started to chat with the assistant and how I have grown up and all. And I realized that for the past 21 years I do not have a single consultation/ appointment card though I have been visiting the same doctor all these years. Why is that so?? Cuz the assistant always knows my name. Haha.. When it’s my turn, I chatted with Dr. Koh too. Haha.. he told him his graduation trip back then after his houseman training. He went Malaysia with another pal and spent only $65 for a trip that lasted 7 seven days. Haha.. $65 is never possible for the current living standard in the world today, probably it’s only enough to entitle you to a coach ticket. But from the way Dr. Koh reminiscences his trip, I could tell that memories were really sweet for him. I also hoped that my trip will be a memorable one.
Followed on, it’s one call that brought me back to further memories!
Mummy called to say that she’s leaving the market soon. So I rushed back to hawker to meet her so I can help her carry stuffs. BUT I met up with my primary school friends instead!!! Haha.. so surprised to see them there!! Cuz I haven been able to catch up with many of my primary school frens cuz I moved house too many times and back then there is no such thing as email and handphones that enhance communication. So in the end I lost contact with most of them. But today, I seemed to see the glim of hope. Wanxin and Wei Liang have been some of the closer ones back then in primary school. Wanxin has been keeping in contact with most other pals. Wanxin has changed a lot and I only recognized her when she came up to me after Weiliang said hello and recognized her through her voice. Haha… after all it has been almost 10 years since we last met. A decade manx!!!
Weliang is gonna take his driving test this coming Wednesday .. All the best!!
And we gonna have plans to go out after I come back from HK. Feels so good to be able to meet old friends and have some time chatting the past and how innocent we were.. Haha.. dun puke!

Back with exciting episodes over the past few days..
Was out ktv-ing with my uni frenz on Monday. Actually it was supposed to be a meeting to plan for our itinerary in HK. But in the end, nothing seems accomplished la.. haha.. But still thanks to JY who did a draft and makes our life easier. Hehe… Oh why can’t we accomplish much on Monday?? Cuz Will brought his 3-year-old nephew along!!! Haha.. Martin is a cutie!!!! Adorable, beautiful eyes with long eye lashes and chubby looks with very deep dimples!!! Barney car is his favourite!!! Haha… it doesn’t take a long time to build rapport with him if you tell him u will treat him to Barney Car. Haha.. Also he v ‘tan chi’ likes to eat so by feeding him, he became closer to us! Even gave us his kisses!!! His uncle happily left the job of feeding to me and he himself went chatting with the rest! So nice of you Will.. haha .. Ya lor.. so that’s why we couldn’t do much planning on Mon and went off ktv-ing after the meeting but only WW, Ping, JY and moi went!
WW began to love k-ge already!! Haha.. so fun to be able to sing duet with a ‘decent guy’!! Cuz every time 3 of us (Ping, JY and moi) sing duet right, someone will have to sing the male part. So that day there’s WW to sing with us.. haha
Anyway.. that’s Monday lo..
Tuesday was off exchanging hk currency at raffles place. Indeed this exchanger offers better rate than his neighbouring competitors. (We did a survey.) Louise got Galvin to escort her to raffles place cuz she’s afraid of robbery as she was carrying a lot of $$$. HAha.. so farnie..
Then we went to Queensway to buy shoes. I bought a pair of track shoes and it was at 35% discount. Indeed Queensway shopping centre is THE place to get good bargain. This pair will be useful on Wednesday.
Made my first visit to Pulau Ubin on Wednesday!! Haha.. the guys v bad manx.. they were scaring me before the trip started that I will get my white top dirty cuz will be v muddy. But luckily it wasn’t the case. But my new track shoes suffered a little black stains.
We went to Chek Jawa! Actually we took this ‘no entry’ route to get to the shore. But the guys know the way so we followed!! Water there is so clear and it’s pretty beautiful. Took some pictures there but will upload soon. I met with a small mini accident la.. was walking on the rocks but they were too slippery already and so my knee got some cuts and scratches when I fell off the rocks. Below is the link that you may navigate and find out more on the beautiful Chek Jawa.

Saw some mudskippers and sewaeed. Didn't get to see my dearest fren - Boar haha.. i might have stepped on some starfish but can't really see clearly at some parts near the mangroves..
The journey was tedious manx!! Or rather I haven been doing much workout and so I felt super tedious especially up the slopes!!! Terrible manx!! Haa.. ought to start training up already. This holiday shall be the good time for training!!
Anyway along the way saw many huts and houses that were so kampong-like. Reminds me of the times when I stayed in my grandparents’ houses in Sembawang. Back then, Sembawang kampong was one of the last to be demolished to make way for the existing HDB flats and shopping centres, particularly Sun Plaza. The ride along Ubin paths brought back many beautiful memories!
And guess what. We saw 2 cobras!!!! Jason went close to them cuz he’s the first to spot them. I even stopped in front of the cobra cuz I was so scared stiff! As a matter of fact, I AM VERY AFRAID OF SNAKES!!! Don’t like the creatures with no legs and can only glide around and I hate their skins.. Just sends shiver down my spine whenever I see snakes and their skins!! Can’t even let me see still pictures of them cuz I am just too scared le!! Anyway.. out of point le.. haha
The second cobra that we saw was trying to prey a toad but we saved the toad cuz the cobra saw us coming and immediately dropped the toad and left. Exciting journey manx..
We even went to the quarry. Ok we are not supposed to enter for safety reasons but we still don’t care la.. Breathtaking sight!! Beautiful manx!! But I really wonder how can people swim in the pond cuz the cliff is very steep and there doesn’t seem to be any way up or down.
Anyway I gotta leave early cuz there’s some last minute plan in the evening! And I was reallie dead tired!! Now I’m slightly tan and it’s quite obvious cuz I am actually quite far. My thighs are so painful now la.. wonder if I can make it to hk on sun.. With more stretching, my legs should be able to recover in time. Haha..
Luckily my student cancelled today’s tuition, if not I will have to toil my way to Chai Chee liao.. haha
Monday, May 09, 2005 12:50 AM
I was watching a movie on tv just now and the male lead has failed to graduate from masters studies for the past 8 years. Y did he tried for 8 years and still cmi?? Well, the answer lies behind the topic of his thesis. He has been trying to understand women and that’s his thesis topic. LOL That spurs me to think more into understanding women.
Does understanding Her means a real tough job for all Him??? OK I admit that She sometimes doesn’t mean what She speaks. But it’s all so simple that it only takes some simple cues that He can pick up along the way. Keep asking and She will tell. At least that works for me. But can’t He just take a little more effort to probe? Of cuz cant expect Him to be doing the task all the time but I’m quite sure She, being more sensitive and reactive to changes in atmosphere, is able to pick up the cues and act appropriately when the need arises.
In simple words, She just needs more TLC, probing and a listening ear. It doesn’t really matter if He can help Her solve Her problems cuz sometimes the problem is beyond salvage. She merely needs a listening ear and hears some soothing words when feeling down or upset or even angry.
Aiya.. human relationships are too complicated already. Though already an adult, it still takes a whole lot of time to fathom how things can work out. So bothersome.. Maybe I should just become a nun ar… sounds good.. hahaha

A personality test i took ... kinda true ar.. sometimes find myself somewhere in the middle.. perhaps people around me can pass a better judgment..
You're systematic, thorough, painstaking, and hardworking...You get the job done and complete it on time...you are serious and sincere in whatever you do..you work well within a structure...follow the hierarchy...and are particularly strong and careful in keeping track of facts and details...
Cautious...generally seeking to maintain the status quo...you are at your best getting things to the right place at the right time....
Serious, responsible and sensible stalwarts of society...trustworthy and honor your commitments...your word is your solemn vow. Practical and realisitic, you have great powers of concentration....hard to distract once you have embarked what you believe is the best course of action.... ..
You like to apply past experience to present decisions...you can cite accurate evidence to support your views...you're down to earth and seek to do the right thing at the appropriate time...you find it hard to understand people who start an education but don't finish it...
You are diligent and persevering in your efforts...whether it be school, or work, or love...A half-finished job is not a job well done...you probably believe in "Say what you mean and mean what you say." Private by nature, you appear calm in moments of crisis...
You believe in work before pleasure... while you don't SEEK leadership positions, you might find yourself in one...you build a reputation for reliable, stable and consistent performance...
You like to schedule....even your LEISURE time! It helps to you if it has a purpose, even if that purpose is sociability...to you, love means bigtime commitment, steadiness and consistency...you behave appropriately for what the situation demands (for example, romantic in the beginning, and so on)..
When you give your word and are ready to settle down, you follow-through... you expect your partners to act in a similar manner...you may stay in a poor relationship because of a sense of duty...you might have strong but unspoken reactions under that cool facade...
Logical and analytical...quick to point out flaws in other people...when you feel scorned in a relationship, you may not let your partner know it..when it's obvious that the relationship is really over, ending it is just the practical thing to do...
Things to look out for: you could immerse yourself in details...you could become rigid in your ways and be thought of as inflexible... don't forget to compliment people and be so concerned with getting the job done....you might overlook the long-range implications of your actions today...don't get stuck in a rut...recognize your emotions, and the values they represent... others might see you as insensitive...
Also, you're skeptical of new ideas you don't see immediate and practical applications for...you may impose judgments on others...expect others to be the way YOU'd be...become more tolerant of difference between people.

1:58 AM
Mentioned in my earlier post that I went for tuition yesterday. Met a super heavy rain when I stepped out of my house. It hasn’t been raining for past few days or rather the weather has been so humid and intolerable over the past few weeks. I only remember that I keep complaining HOT HOT HOT!!! BUT this heavy rain came at the wrong timing today la. I was going to take bus to bedok and it started to rain!! Frens who know me will know my habit of not bringing a brolly out of the house. But I am forced to bring one out today cuz the clouds were so threatening and I have along day ahead so I think I better bring la..
While on the bus, lightning struck on the tree next to the bus! Woo.. so deafening and scary cuz it’s the first time I’m ever so close to lightning. Luckily the leaves didn’t catch fire and no one was walking along the pavement when the lightning struck. Along the journey was so interesting. Haha.. Along paya lebar road there was flood cuz the rain was simply too heavy already. Took a pic of the flood while I was on the bus waiting for it to drive past the flooded area but I couldn’t transfer the pic from my hp to my pc. But just use your imagination la – brown water polluted by sand and soil, those kinda mud water and cars stuck in the middle because water sipped into their engine and they have to stall and cause traffic jam.
Then the tuition. It was so much better than the first lesson. KJ is warming up and somehow more ‘open’ with me. He could crack jokes, lame ones, [goodness I’m surrounded by lamers.. haha] and more smiles as compared to the first lesson. Maybe first lesson shy shy la and wanna test water first. BUT he failed to complete the homework that I assigned him. He even bargained with me lor. He said he’s having headache because the mechanics question is giving him headache and couldn’t get anything into his head and want to do chemistry. BEST! I shouldn’t give in la but forcing him to absorb when he’s not ready also wouldn’t help so I acceded to his request lo. Sometimes need to observe the student and change strategy with the moment lo. So tough to be a tutor. Everything in life is about strategy!!!
Entertainment begins after tuition!! First stop was at Kbox where I sand only 2 songs and got shoo-ed out by personnel cuz the guys paid for 3 hrs only. Then went to eat dinner, brought them to Parklane Wan Tan Mee. Chilli there is getting more and more spicy manx!!! Entire jaws were burning manx!! Then went to cine to watch XXX [Triple X]. It’s an action-packed show. Think I haven been watching action movie for quite some time and found this show really exciting!! AND I didn’t sleep!!! Always had a habit of dozing off for 1-5min in each movie I watched but it usually happened during the boring conversation part of the movies. So I guess action movies keep me awake and love stories keep me dreaming. HAHA. Then back to AMK for supper. Then home sweet home le. So tiring!! What a day manx!!
But I’m still glad that THAT thing is solved already. So I have one thing less to bother about. Bless me luck!!
Friday, May 06, 2005 12:17 PM
I give up on IT le!!!! not going to pursue any further!!!
Anyway Babe and Cedric said they have received their letters from EY already. Babe is in abss22.. I still haven receive mine. Maybe amk postman takes longer time to deliver?? haha.. Hopefully i will be under MR Roonie Low cuz he was my interviewer and he seems really nice boss.
Gotta give tuition at 2pm to the boy in Chai Chee!!! Dread going there!! cuz the boy is so problematic la.. doesn't like to study and he even wanted to left the house earlier than me right after the tuition!! see la.. u tink he is really serious in passing his Os this year???!!! N i have to travel so far to teach him!!! And he know almost nuts about his science!! For his physics he only understands up til Chapter 2 which is kinematics and CHemistry is slightly better at Chapter 5 where the calculations begin. These spell trouble and hell for me lo.. i gotta teach him right from the start!! He's not slow la.. just that he has 'no mood' to study lo.. His granny gave me the fees on the first lesson.. must be afraid that i will run away after the first lesson and so after i get the fees i die die have to complete another 3 lessons. If not for Mr. Ng and that i am still having some time during this hols, i wouldn't have said yes lo.. But according to Mr Ng this boy needs a lot of patience lo alot of care and concern showered on him so that he will know that he's being treasured.. Well i gotta train up my patience or to refine it further.. dunno how long i will continue until but for sure i gotta get a replacement soon!! Mr Ng promise to get me a replacement one!! he better be manx cuz when i start work i can only give tuitionon weekends and his weekends are packed with other tuitions! Im not going to travel to Chai Chee after work to give tuition lo!!! NO way!!!
Anwyay meeting up with sec school pals after that.. KTV plus dinner haha... think can only join ktv at 5plus.. guo4 ying3 first... next wk then go for longer session... gotta go..
ciao

When I need THIS pillar, THAT pillar comes around.
When I need a pair of ears, it only concentrates on hearing and not doing anything else.
Never depend on others cuz YOU are the only one who can help yourself.
No one understands YOU more than yourself.
At the end of the end, YOU can only fall back on yourself cuz no one else has a better incentive to protect YOU than yourself.
Life is all about fending for oneself.
Since birth, babies learn to crawl, to walk, to talk, to write – all because humans need these fundamental skills to survive for their own sake. Friends can turn their back on you, let alone strangers who have no obligations to YOU. After all, each of us needs to be strong before we can protect someone else. Too much protection keeps you in a harbour sheltered from storms such that you become over-reliant. Too little protection exposes you to all hiccups and feels dejected after that. So what can we conclude in life - Too much of anything is never good. Being outfitted with these fundamental skills makes people feel that YOU are independent and they ignored the weaker side of YOU. When faced with trouble, they think that YOU can handle it cuz YOU are independent and strong. But who sees the intimate weaker side of you? There are always two sides to a coin. A balance must be strike some where.
Trust is getting blurrier as each day goes by.
Yet this is utmost fundamental basis we need in daily life. Can you trust the pork stall aunty that she sells you the freshest pork? Can you trust that your friends will be true to you? Can you even trust a relationship that betrayal is never going to set foot? How does trust come about? Intimacy? Relatedness? Authority? Personality? There are too many variables to determine the level of trust you can have in each and every soul you meet.
Can’t my life be calm and quiet for a day??? I may believe in learning from mistakes but goodness don’t have to make it so turbulent that I have to deal with so many things in my life all at the same time right??? Only God knows when I’ll be losing myself and what I will end up being. If only I can change the fate!!!

Came across this while reading a blog of my fren's fren...
Relationship always starts with friendship or lust, then to love, then to the lovely feeling of being together. As time goes by, you get so used to each other that you'll feel that the initial feeling has disappeared. Actually it has just changed its form.It will come to a point where the feeling becomes stagnant and routine, where both parties become more critical of each other and become more impatient. You'd often forget why you two got together in the first place.
There is always someone out there whom you'd feel is better then the present one. You can keep changing while you're young and dont feel like being committed. But when u get older and feel like settling down, it then depends on your luck if you can find someone who suits u as much as those u had been with together before. If not, you may be lonely for the rest of ur life or continue to be confused, going round and round in circles looking for someone else. Its a cycle which will only end when you decide to put a stop to it or when both parties finally decide to stay committed.
Love will become responsibility and commitment as time goes by. It is a fact. Dont expect to feel the lovey dovey feeling always. Its up to you to create and find the feeling back again.
Isn't all tats written above true and reflective of reality?? But how many of us are willing to admit the facts. Because u dun wanna be termed as the bitch or the jerk? You can keep changing while you're young but betrayal is kept to yourself, wont u feel the slightest guily??Dont expect to feel the lovey dovey feeling always => This is so true! But how many of us who are immersed in the love pool can really understand this and adjust yourself to believe that honey will eventually run dry and not to expect too much from our partners??? Yet again, our partners must also not take each other for granted as the relationship comes to a standstill. We cant keep the passion growing but at least we can maintain it at a comfort zone whereby both parties practice respect for each other.
12:22 PM

Friday was a gathering day!! For Winnie, Ping and Moi~!! 2 accountants and a lawyer.. bet Winnie will need us to help her do the accounts for her law firm.. haha… it’s dear Winnie’s bday on 22nd April but all of us have been busy with exams and so gotta do a belated celebration.. woohoo… we landed our butts in this restaurant in Holland V, called Essential Brew! Great food.. Blackened Dory!! First instinct was ‘Is the dory black? Or it’s blackend?’ haha.. lame laa… but it taste great!!! Plus the tea that came in a set and the ‘tea leaves’ were kept in a net (something like a net la) .. uuuueeee… kinda disgusted by the Berries of the Wild.. [ok will try to put up the pic after I learn how to do it and u guys will know what I meant] … The second level is supposed to be better in terms of deco and ambience but the area is only opened after 3pm and we had our lunch at 230pm. So we just gotta settle with downstairs with tables and chairs (Well upstairs is tables and cushions).
Went to Kelly Services for job hunt and took a test. After so many years with Kelly Services then I take the test, weird huh… whatever…
That was Friday la…
Saturday was a joke!!! Dar said he wanted to buy a new phone so we went for phone hunt and journey started at Toa Payoh. Went to this first shop and there were 3 guys, the shop attendants and the boss I supposed. Darn.. smell of cigarette is so SO STRONG. I hate to be near smokers. I don’t mind my frenz who smoke la .. just dun come smoking in front of me or blow the smoke at me. I will 'give you colours see'!! Anyway the one of the three guys in the shop is smoking right in the shop lor.. goodness the shop is air-conditioned lei and he smoked in the shop!! Bless his air-con will not need maintenance soon!! I stood outside the shop while Dar enquire about the prices cuz I don’t wanna shorten my life due to the inconsiderate smokers and made me a second-hand smoker!!!! Then we went to other shops to compare prices.. typical Singaporeans hor.. then end up that Smokers shop offer cheaper price! But im strongly against buying from that shop. So i suggested to go M1 shop to buy, maybe they will offer the same price. We headed to Paragon but the price for the same model is $100 more than what the Smokers offered!! Grr… so mad manx! But I also feel very bad la.. cuz in the end we went back to Toa Payoh to buy the hp from the Smokers. Made Dar travel to Orchard and back to Toa Payoh. I should have kept my mouth shut!!!! What’s wrong with buying from the Smokers, at most stand outside and wait lor..!! Grr.. but really felt so bad.. it’s me la – never like to trouble people, no matter how close the relationship is. Luckily when we went back they never say ‘eh, you are the one who came just now’ haha.. if they recognized us then it will be so malu.. haaa… The smell of cigarettes also not there anymore, luckily manx!! If not i think my life will be shortened by 5 years cuz we spent almost an hour in the shop as Dar has to do transfers for his messages. One of the shop attendants, Sam Lim, even tried to push the Samsung battery and desktop charger to us and even wrote in the bill. Luckily Dar stopped him in time!! Very ‘efficient’ sales tactic ar!!
Was so drained after the Orchard-Toa Payoh ‘tour’ yesterday! In the end came home and ordered KFC delivery cuz both of us too drained le! Haha..
