It's been a long long time since I blogged!! A lot of things have happened since my last entry. I am still working at Philips. I've decided to fulfill my 1-year contract. I don't know if they will convert me to a perm but I am sure I will not stay as a contract. Work has pretty much stayed the same just that we are all getting busier. A lot of stuff have happened at work too. I got to know a couple of new friends: Choo, Elson, Zac, Jaz, Loy, Lea, Pessy, Chew Seah. Though I am closer to only 2 of them. Choo is one of them.. He is really a very sweet guy. He dotes on me a lot and is always very concerned about me, even though I already stated my point of view. He is still so persistent. Initially, it was very flattering to get showered with so much attention, but then it came to a point where I really don't like it at all. And I was pretty upset that everyone was trying to push us together!! During that time, I really wasn't myself.. But now I think I've told him my point of view. Though he is still persistent, at least I didn't give him false hopes! So now I am feeling much better and back to myself!! I just want to be a better friend to him.. It seems like I am always taking. He is always giving!! But I really just want to be a very very very good friend to him. Period!!! Good friends are hard to come by and it would be such a waste to lose such good friends. I hope when we both found our partners, we can still remain good friends! :P

Actually another great thing that has happened was my Philips D&D. It was the best D&D I've ever been to. I had the most fun of my life so far... I have a lot of pics that I would like to put up.. Will do so very soon.... And will continue this entry in another soon.

Today feeling very down... Had a dept meeting in the morning... Talked a lot about headcount issues... Haiz... Director is treating me more like a temp than a contract. Somemore told me to do more administrative stuff.. Ask the secretary to pass me her administrative stuff!! WAH.. obviously trying to tell me "Lay off the HR work"... Then what is the point of staying there!! Sianz.. Ruin my mood for the whole day!! Somemore.. my manager told me last week that she needs to discuss about my growth path. But after hearing this, I think there is no need for growth path le!!! Walked home with another manager.. talked to her about work.. She also knows that my work is not challenging enough for me!! So she is trying to teach me some stuff.. The funny thing is I am not directly supporting her and yet she is so willing to coach me!! Really a good manager!! My own manager... nv really do anything about it!! But was actually quite upset after the meeting.. yet still had to act as if nothing happened.. But I didn't talk much today!! Then during lunch, wanted to eat ice-cream on the way back.. Comfort food!! But the ice-cream uncle not there!! Haiz... So no comfort food for me!! :( But after this.. confirm I am gg to look for another job liao... Dun wanna wait already!! Just kinda sad!!!

Yesterday I was happy.. Met the IT guy again twice!!! And he smiled at me!!! But again.. I was too shy to look at the guy. But I saw him smilling at me!! Next time I confirm will look at him.. Just hope that I will bump into him again.. Not easy bumping into him leh!!! Then met him at lunch again.. Didn't really look at him again.. Shy lah.. Should have loh!!! Haiz..... *smacks myself on the head* At least there is sth happy in this sad entry!!! :)

This month or rather these 2 weeks have been a very eventful time for me!! Some ups and some downs!! Well, actually after our graduation ceremony... I sort of made 3 new friends!! Actually I knew them in uni already.. But just that we never really chatted much... Chia, Lim & Ros.. After graduation ceremony... Added Ros and Lim in msn... Nv really chat much with Ros.. Think he is busy with work!! So chatted with Lim... Very goofy guy!! Nice to talk to!! Then came graduation night!!! It was great.. Love my dress, my hair, my make-up, bag and accessories... Everything was great!! Here are 1 or 2 pics to share:
After graduation night, I added Chia to my msn list cos he wanted pics... Ever since grad night was over, have been chatting with Chia almost every other day.. Chat with Lim quite often also... So I am glad I made these "new" friends... Haha.. Expanding my social circle... And ladies... all 3 of them are SINGLE!!! And their characters are quite good... Then u may ask.. y not choose one for myself?? Haha... Honestly, 2 of them smoke.. 1 is actually quite good... But these kind of things can't be rushed... Let nature take its course.. It is not something that I can force anyway!! Then last Sat... got invited to a BBQ at Ginger's place!! Ok.. another interesting thing happened... And this incident has a short history to it..

There is this guy that I sometimes bump into at church... He always walks from a certain direction to church... And sometimes he walks with a big group.. So I presume he just finished his cell group! But I dunno who he is.. just know he is from my church! Then when Ginger told me she will be inviting some of her church frens plus her cellgroup to the BBQ, I initially didn't want to go.. Cos I dunno anyone.. So it would be awkward.. Then I suddenly thought of this guy. I was wondering.. what if he is in Ginger's cellgroup.. That would be really COOL.. But I was like so sure he wun be cos I usually think too much!! But guess what.. HE WAS THERE!! But he was busy BBQ-ing.. so I was not really introduced to him!! But watching him BBQ-ing is quite "pleasant for my eyes".. Imagine.. a guy in sleeveless T-shirt.. Concentrating hard.. with a bit of sweat coming down his face... muscular hands controlling the fire!! Hahaha... EYE CANDY la!!! Then when I was leaving for home, Ginger actually asked him to send me back!! That was when I was formally introduced to him! AMAZING right?? Was just thinking about him and now i was in his car!! CHATTING WITH HIM!!! SUPER COOL LOH!!!
Ok.. on to the last up.. Well, there is this IT guy in Philips... He is quite cute la!! He came to help fix up one of my manager's laptop on the first week of my work!! But he is a bit "tao".. Like seldom smile at ppl!! So I thought.. this guy.. cute also no use... So unfriendly!! But nice to look at still!! :P Recently have been bumping into him a lot.. But cos he dun really smile, so I nv smile at him when I walked past him... Then on Tuesday, we had a workshop... So I was pushing the trolley back to our storeroom alone. There I saw him again. I was having troubles pushing the trolley back into the room, so he came over and help!! He was super friendly this time!! Smiling and all! The funny thing is I could have handled it myself.. But somehow I just let him help me!! Think see too much cute guys until siao already!!! :P But that was quite a nice feeling!! So next time, maybe I will smile at him when I bump into him!!
Now, onto the downs!!! Well, have been working very late these few weeks.. The month of August is a crazy month for us!! So many activities and a lot of planning needs to be done.. I have endless work to do!! Almost everyday... the moment I step into the office, I will be working non-stop except for lunch!!! Running around.. sending emails... doing all the preparation!! HAIZ... Fortunately, my efforts are recognized by my boss!! :P
Well, I've got much more to say.. I'll leave it till the next entry!!! :P

Had my grad ceremony yest!! Took quite a lot of pics.. But some quite dark, some quite blur... Okok.. I must admit I am not a professional photographer.. But I seriously think the lighting in the hall is not good!!! But I enjoyed the whole day yesterday.. Reached the hall in the afternoon to gown up.. and then started taking pics already!! So happy!! Other than the darkness and blurriness, I kinda looked nice in some of them!! yay... Also, took pics with people I never really talk to much.. Like Jeremy Lim & Chia! Met Jeremy Lim at Marina square again!! :P Wanted to take with a few ppl... But couldn't find them.. And didn't really dare to.. Like Matthew, Shengzhi and Darrell.. I also did not take with Bel and a couple more people... My mum and eldest bro came to the ceremony!! Then my cousin (in the pic with grey T-shirt & without specs), whom I have not seen for so many years came to meet us for dinner.. He quite cute leh... Very hip and cool.... Didn't recognize him earlier... Haiz.. I miss my cousins... Wish we could be closer!!! But I am VERY HAPPY TO SEE HIM!!! Hopefully can see my other cousin.. Who is also very hip, handsome and cool!! On thursday, before grad, met up with Agus.. Wah.. really long time nv meet up le.. Grown a bit fatter.. But good for him.. cos he is too skinny.. Now looks just nice... Trying to copy Edison Chen's image.. But really does suit him actually.. Everytime I meet up with him, I dun wanna go back early.. Nv really told him that... But everytime will feel that way!! He is one friend that I will ALWAYS cherish!! And the one friend that I'll always have the soft spot for!!
Also, I realised something about myself... I think it's cos I am shy!! When I see a guy that is cute or if I like that guy, I find it hard to smile or talk to the person. A very good example is with D. Unless D smiles at me first, I cannot bring myself to smile at him or go up and talk to him! Not very good I know.. But can't help it.. Everytime I tell myself if I see this person again, I will smile at him!! But if that person appears in front of me, suddenly I cannot already!! It is just me being shy I guess. Plus, I am not really a talker anyways!! Unless I know you very well, then I will surely say Hi or smile!! Also pls dun think if I readily smile at you, that means you are not cute... Haha.. Ok more pics...

Wah.. it's been a while since I last blogged!! I nv even blog about my HK trip in May.. Ok this entry will be a very long one then.. Let me try to recall my happy times in HK.. I finally went to HK Disneyland.. Grow so big still haven't been to Disneyland before.. Tsk tsk tsk.. This one is pretty small but I still love it.. Makes me feel like a small girl again!!! Awww.... And I took a pic with my fave character.. WINNIE THE POOH... The whole trip was very tiring but fulfilling.. Cos we walked a lot.. Shopped a lot.. But to be honest.. Did not get much clothes there.. Mainly shoes and bags.. Bought 2 boots from there... And I only got to wear one in Melb... Got to eat a lot of food in HK too.. Definitely put on weight when I was there. Oh.. and I saw Shawn Yue (Yu Wen Le). He walked right past me. He was wearing a cap... I wanted to shout his name.. But of course I just saw him walk away lah... So pai seh... Hahaha.. But I loved my HK trip... Next time I am gg to buy lots more bags and shoes... And I will bring along someone who can speak Cantonese & Chinese!!!

Now onto my Melbourne trip... This is one of my most memorable ones!!! Y? Cos I got to feel and see snow.. And I tried skiing.. Wah.. My legs and arms are so sore... I skiied down a "huge" slope three times.. It was very cool.. I feel thrice.. Once was banged down by someone from the back... Wah.. Butt super painful.. Though my hands were freezing.. But I will definitely want to go back again... Or somewhere with snow... And it is actually cool to have 4 seasons in a country.. Can always wear different style of clothes... Ah.. And I really tried looking for my snow globe... Cannot find... Even up on the mountain.. Their souvenirs not very nice... I really love SNOW... Oh and I got to see very very small penguins... They come up to sea at night and walk back to their "homes" on land.. Very very cute... It was super windy and it was raining that day.. Wah.. we were quite drenched and VERY COLD.... But it was worth it.. And I saw a really huge wild koala up front... But sad to say.. my trip was very short... Think only about 5 or 6 days... Not much time for sightseeing.... But I will definitely go back to Melbourne!!!!!

Now onto my work at Philips... Well, on my first day, met 2 new people. A new manager and an intern that is leaving.. I am taking over him actually.. The new manager very cute.. Blur blur one... The intern also very nice... We got along really well.. People thought we knew each other beforehand.. But he like xiao di di... 2 years younger than me.. He is really talkative.... But very friendly and funny!! But he is nice to have around.. Even I dun really noe him for very long.. But kinda miss having him around.. Oh.. Saw a lot of familiar faces.. Surprisingly, they can still remember me... Haha.. So not too bad a feeling.. Oh.. and I saw Zheng, twice actually. But didn't really say Hi.. cos was chatting away... But he bian shuai le!!! Like his hair style.. Not sure if he changed it.. Well, the environment is good.. But the job scope is BAD!!! They always package things nicely before you come in.. When you really enter the job, it is a totally different thing.. I think I must get used to it... Maybe this is the real world!! And my managers are forever trying to matchmake me with guys in Philips!! Hai yo yo..... Sometimes when we go eat.. they will say "eh.. this one good.. that guy good" Very funny la!!!! Well, will see how these few months go... Hopefully my job scope will change for the better... *cross my fingers tight*

Last night... I dreamt of so many things!!!!!!! Me and my dreams again... I remember 2 dreams... But vaguely.. The 1st dream was very strange... I dreamt that my neighbor was getting married and I was at his wedding!!! ANd the funny thing was that I was very sad.. as though I like him.. The next thing I know.. he spotted me and he felt sad that he was going to marry someone else.. But he still went ahead with the wedding... Wah... in my dream I was extremely upset....
Then my 2nd dream was about a Netball match... I remembered shouting at my team-mates to encourage them to go on.... And it was so cool.. because in my dream my team was very awesome.. We played as though we ruled the courts!!! Super cool man!!!! I can't remember the rest already... But I know I dreamt of a lot of things... The funny thing was I cannot believe I actually dreamt of my neighbor. I think I would dream of that because yesterday they had a function... As I looked through the peephole of my main door, I saw some ladies in gowns gathering around a table with food on it.. At that time, my mum called and told me when she left for work, she saw a lot of ppl outside.. And she thinks one of the sons is getting married.. So that spurred my dream on.. Haha.. isn't it so strange??

Anyway.. these few weeks ever since I graduated.... I never thought about D already!! But suddenly these few days I started to think about him again!! Haiz... Plus just now was watching the dvd of Hana&Kimi... Quan really reminds me of D.. Haha... I think I am going crazy.. Also, I think when I am bored my mind starts wandering.. And I start thinking about D.. D is really a lucky guy man.. He doesn't even know there is someone thinking about him!! REALLL lucky guy!! Hmph!! But I promise that I will stop thinking of him..

Oh.. on a lighter note.. I think I have found a 2nd male singer that I like already... Other than my one and only Jay Chou!!! The 2nd guy is.............. Ken Wu (Wu Ke Qun).. I love his songs a lot!! And I think I am starting to like him more and more... So he is my 2nd fave singer!!!!!!!!!! Hee....

Once I found a job, I am gg to begin another phase of my life.. And I am starting to get ready for it!! Actually I am excited about going to work.. I know.. people must be wondering... I must be crazy.. Ya... i think I will live to regret this statement later on.. Haha... But I just wanted to let everyone know... I am so ready for this!!!

This blog will be a really long long one.... It's been some time since I last blogged.. Been too lazy to blog... Well, recently an array of emotions have overcome me!!! Now, I am working part-time at Acanthus till I find a perm job.. Till now, I still don't know what I really want to work as.. At first, I have set my mind on the HR industry.. But now, don't really feel like it.. Working at Acanthus is ok... But it can get really boring sometimes.. And I mean really really boring!! I don't like to work in such an environment.. where for hours I am bored that I have to find stuff to do!! Worse still, I cannot find anything to do!! So I really drag myself to work and back at times. The feeling is also weird going back to work there.. Dun really have much to talk about with my colleagues... So during lunch time I will usually just keep quiet and eat.. Also, on my MRT rides to work and back.. I will usually feel bored and my mind will start thinking about stuff.. It took me quite a while to forget D.. But these boring MRT rides have caused me to think about him!! Haiz.. But now I have told myself to STOP thinking about HIM already!!! Think about him also no point!! But at times I really do miss him.. Haiz... Why must I meet him this final term in SMU? If I nv see him, save me from all these troubles!! hahaha..... So ah.. these few days have been feeling melancholy.. esp when I listen to those sappy mandarin songs!!! Aww...... Sometimes I really feel like going away to a new country and starting afresh... But that is silly me thinking.. I think now I just have to go out with my frens and catch a breather from life as a whole!!!!!

Now, I have 2 wishes... To find a good-paying & interesting job AND to find a good & suitable partner!! I know these wishes will be granted!!!

Also, recently, I've been having some thoughts about guys as a whole.. Dun understand why some guys can have so little initiative... To me, a guy can be shy.. But when it comes to certain matters, he should take the initiative!! And not always wait for the girl to do so first!! HE is a GUY!! Dun care what times we are living in.. Also, I think I would not like a guy who always falls ill.... He has to learn how to take care of his health... It seems to me that this guy's body is weak... Just a few days and he has cold.. Then the next few days, he has cough... If it happens too often, I would seriously worry for this guy's health... Dunno why I suddenly start thinking of such things.. But I would greatly dislike it if my future bf has a weak body and has very little initiative!!!

Well, on to happier things.. next Saturday, I will be leaving for HK... Yay.. SHOPPING TRIP.. Here I come!! Really excited.. Can't wait to pack up my bag and go.. But it's still too early to pack!!! I am going to HK Disneyland!!! Back to my childhood days again!! Ah... I never mentioned this but my fave Disney character is........... WINNIE THE POOH!!! I have SOooo many POOH stuff at home... till I told my frens not to get me any Pooh stuff for my birthdays!!! Really looking forward to my holiday.. I really need a break... Dear God, please grant my wishes soon!!
