of life and of death

last week met up with some of the 4D girls. it was a damn happy and close to heart affair, 1stly cos our dear yenti is preggy and also cos, we haven seen each other for years. thou there's facebook to keep us connected, nth beats meeting each other in the flesh.

hehe unglam

and for round 2 for the mummy.

desserts galore

so excited for the birth of yenti's baby girl. lam gg to be her god mummy. lub lub babies! hope yenti will have a smooth childbirth :) cant wait to see the girls in dec again!

met up with she yesterday. and .. aunty faith is back in action. woots!
had a great time catching up with the girls, and sharing woes at work. guess we will be stronger girls after all these politics, pressure and tears.





special thanks to boss oh, who joined and treated us desserts. hehe.

and while we were all chatting, somehow the topic of death, insurance popped up. my colleague/my's school mate's plight is so saddening. really hope and pray the best for him. always tot life is a bed of roses. time to face life uncertainties bravely. its better to be prepared rather than to choose to run away. buy insurance my frens, its really much needed.

and met up with wave frens for makan at lau pat sat.




just watched xing guang. the contestants peformed a rendition of this song. so cute and entertaining!

i just had my wisdom tooth extraction at ktph. 1st time being in a surgery, albeit a mini one.
was under general anesthesia. scariest part was when the doc gave me a drip and its poked thru the veins on my hand. and wth. they cant find my tiny veins. so they dug. and try again puncturing at another location, until they gave up and moved to my right hand.
anw its kinda uncomfy when u feel the stuffs flowing in :/



before i knew it, i woke up with 4 teeth less.

damn

sick again.stupid headache & fever & sore throat. all cos of the fried fish and choco :/
shd i go see doc (again)?

all abt shopping

this entry is for my own eyes. ok maybe girl pals can too. shoo if u are a guy.

the short shopping trips i had over the past few days are fulfiling but in a bad way, leaves me wanting more. shucks i sound like an aggressive monster. fettish for shoes was ignited . just u wait, oh-so-pretty-sandals-and-flats, will get you one day!

want to get ballet flats, sandals sooonnnn...maybe i can paint the nails 1st. haha. but lots of clothes still sitting inside my wardrobe waiting to be worn. speaking of which, i haven even worn my wedges/heels out.or the dress.. or the earring.. *tears hair*

been buying some stuffs online too *guilty* shd stop this unhealthy habit. always get cheated into buying cos of the pretty models. like HVV's model. :/ sucker for pretty girls.

felt i nv shop for ages. super oppressed by work for the lack of time, and work diminishes the mood for almost anything. that boils to the basic, there isnt much need to dress nicely for engineers. as practical as we can all be, anything that covers is gd enough. hence the low util of my go-out-clothes. thou secretly i am actually happy that i can wear my sem 1's battered tee to work. the flip side of the coin.

fatty yew gg thai with susu too. so envious. wanna go thai on shopping rampage, but cannot. i must hold back the urge. fatty yew if u reading this, i gg to prep u my shopping list! :)

shopping aside, i wanna learn guitar. been saying this since year 2. mustn't procastinate. where to buy one? and kudos to a fb status i've just seen..

"Whoops I just farted and I think I stained my underwear with shit.."

oh well.. shit happens.

when reality hits

2 months into the job and i'm starting to feel the heat. thou i had classroom training on the technical know hows for the past month, its only when i'm at the line till i realise there's so much i dont know. Really creeped out when i realised the whole list of operators have been transferred to my charge. thou for now, its only in name cos senior is still ard.

in face of challenges, i want to be brave enough to face it, rational enough to solve it and the determination to see it through. dont wanna be the old me. thou my brain is telling me to run, my heart is edging me to at least try.

the external factors arent really helping. afew wave frens are quiting, which is demoralising to everyone. i always feel when someone leaves, it might be liberation for them. but for those who stay, its just plain sad. guess its part and parcel of work life. once you get attached to frens/item, it mires your judgement.

back to work in less than 12 hours. the 5 days break really increases the inertia to go back work.
anw as stated on afew entries back, i still want to shop. i wan to buy shoes and many more. so deprived of shopping.

have creepy encounter with a uncle today. still wanted to follow me home.
thank goodness.

sept.

month of sept have been eventful. cos of my training, i got e chance to meet up with many of my dear frens after work/weekend. this includes girlfrens such as ms, asshole and jc pals whom i haven seen for quite some time. so grateful and happy. old frens are always the best.

at jb, but no GROUP PICS.

look at the hamster in the middle. haha

Looking back, these 2 months at tech have been kind on me too. to be honest, it doesnt even feel like work. it feels like school, orientation. thou we are not sticky close, i really like my wave frens. its amazing that everyone with different personalities could blend tgt to be a close knit group.





coming this week, it will be back to shift days. hoping for the best! i am determined to do my best with my dad's words in mind.

jiayou everyone! aja aja fighing!
aunty faith hope u doing well in the states!

sleep overdose

having headaches from sleeping away the weekend.
i want to shop. now. badly.

Magic Power - Who Am I 我是誰 (HQ)

been a week, but still feeling sick. and it seem to be getting worse with the headaches and coughing fits. esp GG for me inside the fab.its definitely disgusting to smelll ur cough stained hood, and somehow u feel u will probably not gg to be well for some time.


after work activities - steamboat.
yest after work, made our way to some ah tiong steamboat rest at bugis.me the (sick) daredevil went for the outing despite my body's protests. anw imagine 22 ppl packed in a corner, half the size of ur bedroom, with almost non existent fans and aircon. couldnt really enjoy the experience:/ oh well, last 2 weeks of honeymoon tot i shd prob enjoy the ride as long as it lasts.



after steamboat, decided to htht by singapore river, until we realised its fenced off in lieu of mid autumn festival. lots of pretty floats btw. initial tot cny came early. haha.

after failed attempts of HTHT-ing cos the grp was too big, began playing orientation-like games. polar bear and police? haha but damn funny. i like the forfeits part esp.
and so stayed all the way till 3am.. that is quite hiong cos they even wanted to go for karaoke after that, which is mad. lucky they scrap the idea, cos the coughing fits couldnt get any better man.


on e subject of colleagues, i'm having some 2nd thoughts abt a wave fren, X. perhaps its inevitable tt some might feel left out in a grp and of cos no one would want to be in that position. everyone has diff way of dealing with the lack of social attention, for me, i'll just let it be, cos i guess i'm used to being forgotten. but somehow i cant agree with X's way.

contrary to common acts of seeking more attention for urself by saying or acting big, X tries to pull 'frens' in the same shit. this act is alright actually, cos frens would naturally stick out for each other in any case. but check ur attitude man. not expecting any gratitude but cynicism and sarcasm dripping from ur words is garing on the ears. and somehow it seem to make X feel better by putting all of us down with X's brand of pessimism. could do a lil more with some positive influence in the company.

anw shucks haven met up with a lot of ppl. wait till i recover k? wouldnt want to spread it to u all.
still need to meet up with bunch of frens.

where's the doctor when i need him/her?
to utilise my medical benefits, no choice but to wait till tmr.

its the weekend

finally its the weekend. felt kinda worn out, though its mostly classroom training for this month. starting to feel the heat when joanne started giving us assignments to do. it felt almost the real deal - passdown report, on site manufacturing observation, etc. so many things to learn and must be fast. aiz. wish i can pay more attention in class, always seem to be one step behind the others. just shoot me man. as much as i want to listen, but i'm just physically there but spiritually somewhere else.

initially was quite apprehensive abt the job after hearing so many negative stuffs abt the manager. but met a engineer during our training who was kinda motivational. forgot the exact words he used, but the gist is to never get carried away with people's words, have to see it for yourself before making a judgement. and as a good engineer- to make a difference in people's life be ready to accept mistakes and learn from it

dunno y, after his talk changed my pessimistic outlook on job. maybe the job is not as scary as i tot? whatever it is, i will not give up till the very last bit. (thanks to a 'fren' words of 'encouragement' too)

anw i like my wave frens. the lonely maojt experience made me appreciative of their company. seeing them ard in tech- identifying each other by the eyes in fab, lift, toilet, going over to each other's office cubicle could bring smiles to my face. i could do more with familiarity among the big company(2000 employees). funny tt 30+ of us started out as strangers, but now are relying on one another in lil ways. of cos also very happy to see hafiz my nus fren since yr 1 in tech, whom i always enjoy talking to. a brotherly figure. haha i'm finding comfort in familiarity.

on that, had another wave outing yest. tot i had to ot, but manage to send out b4 6pm. woots. we went novena for dinner and udders icecream. bailey's and bourbon. how do u pronounce 'bourbon' btw? wahlao they were all laughing at my pronunciation. after tt the girls stayed back for htht while the guys went home. haha doing what girls do best- gossip and camwhore. definitely tgif.

and my life of OT will begin soon. have been staying till 9.30 to fin the chapalang reports. my colleagues in my dept have been coming back on their off days. better enjoy my honeymoon month. haha i played table tennis after work too. lol, if only OT can be claimed for tt.

feeling crap now. having sore throat and flu now. wonder if its cos of e flu bug that has been going ard the company. what a way to spend sat. nvm slp slp the day away

ma, we grad again

after which. back to being civilian
