cathryn realises

and wonders ...

if she is set out for the Public Relations and Communications industry especially when she sucks at maintaining friends and keeping them.

Maybe we can say its double-sided. that friends think im not good enough or anything for them but if i see it this way, it wont be doing them much justice. i guess the whole problem is probably me and my inability to execute my PR skills well enough. Or am i just a really lousy friend at heart?

Maybe i am.

So im determined to make amends this time. Determined to change for the better with the start of my 21st year alive.

I cant convince myself that im cut out for PR or even for life if i suck at maintaining my friends. If my friends just all fade away one after another, it is probably because im just not cut out for life.

Well, i cant say ive tried my best now. but i promise, i will try my best from now. So if i mean something to you my friends, dont just fade away like this. Dont just leave me out of your circle. include me. add me. dont go away.

in reply to waimun's blog post

BLEAHHH...!!

who ask u to give me the idea of SHINE. SPARKLE. GLAM.!!

Ok.. u gave glam. but grace gave shine n sparkle. i din noe which to choose what!! so grace suggested using all lo!!!

bleahhh

U BETTER NOT WEAR SLIPPERS ok! THE DRESS CODE IS SMART CASUAL. i repeat.. SMART CASUAL!!

bleahh...

Unless u can crack ur creative copywriting brains now and gimme another theme, im just going to stick with shine. sparkle. glam. and remain bimbotic as ever!!

omg. i realised... if i put it as glam. sparkle, shine


iT BECOMES... GSS!! =X omg. nvm

its SSG k. dun think so much!

Shine. Sparkle. Glam.

ok dear friends.

After much discussion on the train with wai mun and grace, i finally decided not to go ahead with "white and silver" as the theme lest everyone turns up in white and we look like ghosts taking photos. hahaha

The theme will be Shine. Sparkle. Glam. and dress up to whatever that's to your interpretation!!! =)

And as for pressies, you are free to get whatever you think will be useful for me, as long as there are no soft toys! haha.. If you don't know what to get, the guide below will be perfecto!

I REALLY REALLY WANT THAT OVEN. really.

please, someone , please say u will get it for me!!!!!!! n i promise, whoever gets me that oven, i will dedicate the first cake or set of cookies to you ok! pleaseeeee... please get me the oven!!!!!

And , im not going to study today! BLEAH!!! dun care!

I had a grueling past week of 4 papers and i felt like i was in hell.
So, im going to give myself a break tonight before i pia for my last 2 papers.

Seriously, why did i ever think of taking 6 modules! n somemore, 6 intensive ones!!

i noe what i want already!

1. Electric Oven - FOR BAKING CAKES. Not microwave oven. i wonder if there would be any takers. haha. If you dont want to get the oven, u can give me "harvey norman" vouchers too. But of course, vouchers must be "big" enough to buy an oven. i really really want the oven. i really like to bake!!

2. Branded and good quality work bag (for my internship next semester at...*bleah* dont tell u until i signed the papers. I'm very superstitious.)- taken by the CS peeps.

3. Wallet (that is not Guess unless its really much nicer than mine).Coz i have a Guess wallet already. hehe..

4. Anna Sui "Nights of Fancy" perfume. There are two. Its the sweeter smelling one i prefer! =)

5. Burberry's pink colour box perfume. (i forgot what its called. but its pink and very sweet and girlish smelling)

6. Really cool looking shades suitable for wearing in Singapore. Must not be those pasar malam kind ok! i have a lot of those alr! hehe

7. Lasik Surgery (hahhaha. i noe what ure thinking) The list WILL get worse

8. Liposuction surgery

9. One year unlimited amore fitness (or others) membership

10. Running shoes

11. Face Shop vouchers

12. When all else fails, Capital Land Mall Vouchers. Which means, they can be used at all capitaland malls.


Let me know if you are getting any of these! =)
Okie. thats all for now. ciao!! study for exams =(

1 paper down, 5 more to go...

The long and dreadful season of exams starts today. I know, i have exams tomorrow and i must go n study now. but i keep procrastinating! its just not working out!

Arghh.. Business module was sucky today. That Sern yong got so many things to write and kept stressing waimun and i on the train! I shall not talk about it anymore. mb 106 is OUT!

******

Sweetie dew is on a ship now. It was raining so heavily today and there was such a loud clap of thunder at Aljunied mrt station when i was waiting for a train to go to school.I go such a shock that i almost let out a scream.

Hope the water and waves and whatever there is is good and safe for him. I will pray for your safety oh dew dew. Hopefully you dont tire yourself out and the people there give u ample time to rest. Slave drivers they are..

Cant wait to hear from you tomorrow. May you have a peaceful and pleasant night. muacks! Though you cant see this, have no telephone reception and everything, i know you will still read this eventually.

love ya.

ive just completed a whole book for my business management module! and i feel soooo accomplished that im going to give myself a break for 30mins before going to dive back into 401.

and i shall blog about... WHAT I WANT FOR MY BIRTHDAY! =)

People have been asking me what i want for my birthday.. and i just cant seem to think of it. As for now, i have some ideas of what i want. But i will update the list whenever i think of more! As long as they are useful and practical.

1. Electric Oven - FOR BAKING CAKES. Not microwave oven. i wonder if there would be any takers. haha

2. Branded and good quality work bag (for my internship next semester at...*bleah* dont tell u until i signed the papers. I'm very superstitious.)- taken by the CS peeps.

3. Branded wallet (that is not Guess unless its really much nicer than mine). Other possible brands can range from Coach to LV. hahahha.. Coz i have a Guess wallet already. hehe..i know, there will be NO takers. just put here la. cannot huh

*omg. im so super materialistic. cannot stand it. *

4. I cant think of any already! will think of more throughout the week! =) hehehe

5. maybe when all else fails, Capital Land Mall Vouchers. Which means, they can be used at all capitaland malls
haha

But most importantly,

Attendance at my birthday celebration. Actually, thats just my most important present that i would be very happy recieving. Having people actually RSVP-ing to my party makes me feel really thrilled and excited because it shows that i matter, or once did, in your lives. So thank you to all of you friends who RSVPed. I appreciated it a lot. And will continue to appreciate it. =)

The only reason why i like novembers is because my birthday is at the end of november. However, happiness only comes after much suffering.

Every november, we suffer. We slogged our minds out. We study until we cant absorb anymore and we just force ourselves to stay awake.

This november is no different. =(

obama wins!

Read the news at 12.45pm yesterday and found out that Obama won! and yes, many were excited and happy! I cant imagine Mc Cain leading the govt at his age too.

So anyway,i'm turning 21 soon , meaning i can vote in the 2010 elections! yeah! Cant wait!!

******************

On the other side of the world, despite Obama winning.. THERE ARE STILL SLAVE DRIVERS IN THIS WORLD~!

If, youre a young and aspiring engineer hoping to carve ur niche in this area, do not, MARK MY WORDS, DO NOT!! work for DSTA.

There are plentiful of heartless inhumane slave drivers there.

i shall repeat again. DO NOT! DO NOT! work for DSTA.

So funny! American politics never fail to entertain. gosh. how i love all the drama happening now..

Who do you think will be the next president?

Listening is hard

ITs hard to listen. Especially when it comes in a form of another language that you barely picked up.

Japanese Listening compre was a TERROR. never in our lives did so many classmates complain about the standard set. it was outrageous. how could they do this to us?

In practice lessons, nothing of such a sort was given. the format was different. the speed was different too. And today, omg.. it was as though we went to japan.

omg.

****

On the other hand, im happy of getting accepted there. wun say where here until everything is seriously finalised and i can announce to the world. hehe.. some of you might know already. but im superstitious. i shall keep mum on it first!

Friendly scratched my face today. i have an ugly scar on my face. =(

that slight tinge of envy

Often i wonder to myself how some people are lucky to have many friends that care for them around.

Recently, i saw someone post a depressed statement about herself and her failures. Perhaps it could be because she has been climbing up high for a while and once failure sets in, and they don't ever seem to meet ur expectations, you start to feel lousy and feel as though you have lost focused and the whole comes crashing down.

I know how she feels. I can empathize with her.

And in some way, i envy her. Of course its not because of her downfalls. But because of the amount of support she got from her friends after what she had typed. So many messages then streamed in in encouragement, telling her not to be detered and to grow stronger.

I'm envious of the number of good friends and even acquaintances who bothered to type a short note to her to tell her that they all look up and admire her. In some way, i wish i had that kind of support. But perhaps, i think to myself, i might just not be so deserving of it. Maybe i am not humane enough to garner such friends. Or maybe, i don't have friends who will care.

I don't know.

But i'm envious. I wish i had friends like her. I wish that sometime someday, if i was feeling low, there can be more people there to hold my hand and guide me along through the darkness when i needed it the most.

But i'm glad i still have someone who constantly cares for me, and a supportive family. Perhaps sometimes, many things don't go your way. But, to the others out there, be glad that you have friends that bother and care about how you feel. Be glad that your friends don't just use you for notes, for projects, for favours. Be glad because there are still people like me out here, feeling envious of you.

And yes, i'm so envious of u.
