i am starting to feel kind of nervous with regards to my schedule.
at the moment, i'm currently sick from cough and sore throat. and i don't feel very optimistic abt it since it's my first time sick this year so yeah. i'm currenly also in the midst of studying for my semester's examinations. i think i'm starting to see the picture. i've 3 semesters in a year- spring, summer, fall. each sem will end off with a final-exam and then a 3-4 weeks break. ya our longest break is like 4 weeks. pretty short isn't it.
i'm pretty much enjoying studying for psyc and music. as for comms, not so much at the moment. it feels pretty awkward realising this since i got my comms blog result a few days back. I got 84% for my blog!! which is pretty awesome actually. 83% and above is an A grade. i diddn't realise it's so tough to get an A grade for Comms. that's when i started to feel kind of down. bleah. but then again, i got 90% for my middle of semester exam for Comms! so why can't i feel more motivated to study for comms!
and these days, simple words like EMOTION; MOTIVATION or even someone saying "she has a cheerful personality", remindds me of Psyc. that as my friend continues talking abt one's personality, i'm like so desperately trying to recall the definition of "personality". In this first sem in UB, i am studying Introduction to Psuychology. All the basics to human's behavior or emotion or personality or whatever. so everything in life has a connection to what i've learnt. cool but i think i need to feel a bit less of a wreck.
i feel that i claim i am "not stress" but i've to admit that i'm feelig more stress up for this final semester exam due to my determination and excitement in getting an A grade for my 3 modules that will be tested. and the fact that i got 90 over percent grades for my middle of sem exams just motivates me too much i guess. the energy it fuels me to study for this end of year sem is like making me kind of stress. ><
and to make the slightly pale blue waters paler, my holidays after exams aren't so fantastic afterall. i was lookign forward to enjoying my 4 weeks holiday after m exams with myself, freiends and family. and to spend my time learning Salsa and preparing tuition materials. My beloved company whom i worked with earlier this year recalled me back to work with them during my upcoming holidays. I greatly enjoy their company and am appreciative for their effort in trying to recall me back. They have even increased my wage by $2 per hour to reward me. This news however brings to me with a mixture of feelings. Much as i want to see them and earn some extra (good) money, i too also want my rest and peace.
I've always been pretty money-driven. But right now, i don't feel like earning those hard cash. To my dismay, i realised that i'll be taking 4 tuition students in year 2010. i had thought that i'd only be taking 3 -which is fine, but one of the parents had wanted my service once more next year. sigh... it's just too much work. having 4 students is not a problem. i've done it once and still get my A grades but i'm kind of tired? esp when i still have my Tuesday MPS and Thursday Salsa lessons to handle?
i think the problems all boils down to my poorly scheduled school timetable lessons. i chose the same one as my friend but cus of that, the timing is making it very inconvenient for me to attend salsa lessons. and that's the main thing that's freakign me out. also, i am a member of young pap. and i was pretty much in a state of denial when i heard that the peeps are preparing for election next year. so it is like omg. can i back out? but no i can't! cus it's a committment that i make and i must stick to it. and someone by the name of Joel will come murdering me if i do so. seriously, i can't believe i'm still seeing him in my life. but i'm sure there is a good reason why he is still present in my life. i guess he is here to teach me something. and indeed he has. he is always teaching me to value my words and be responsible. oh well. i'll be a good girl. wait. i'll learn to be.
as for the vast amount of work that's awaiting me, i have a strategy to handle it. afterall, having a lot of work- school, tuition, jobs, volunteering and salsa are all part of my enjoyment in life. i chose all these committment and activities myself. they are my way of seeking pleasure in life. even though they are termed as work, i still enjoy them wholehearedly. you may term them as work but not me. they are just activities in my eyes. being busy isn't bad.
To me, i always feel that my dad is so busy, so tired for returning home at 10-11pm these days from work. i usually relate being busy and tired as a "not too awesome" life. but he always insists to me that he is happy to be tired! that's because he loves his work. he has passion for it. i shall learn his perspective. such a positive perspective of work will make your life so much more enjoyable.
it's not because i have to, but i choose to. therefore, i am happy. :)
life rocks. today you are here breathing, therefore you are happy. you are not alone and you know that there is always someone who loves you unconditionally. therefore, you are happy. happiness is a basic emotion. and you better make sure you have it; and use it.
smile today! :)

How have you guys been? do i even have any visitors to my blog? O.O i doubt i do have.. if i'm lucky, i might have 1 visitor per month. and woah! u're my one precious audience, aren't you? waha. it's good to feel that ppl are viewing your blog but then again, i am not dependent on my audience presence to be motivated to blog isn't it? and hey! i'm not chasing you away.. :)
i've been busy with school work.. especially with my English module where i was requied to write a persuasive essay on any topic. i chose to write on "should male homosexuals adopt a child?" i chose it as i wanted more challenge and also an opportunity -an an excuse- to conduct more research over such issues. i always find the topic of gays very intriguing but did not have the time to conduct my reasearch.. i was given 3 weeks to write this report but turned out, i wrote an incomplete draft on the first week, and then wrote one final essay on the night of my deadline. >< right now, i am feeling very ashamed of myself for my severe procrastination and lack of discipline. oh well... :|
From what i've learnt in psychology, the solution of last minute work is to give yourself multiple realistic deadlines, and work towards it!
hmm.. i am feling very sleepy now after sleeping at 4am for writing my english essay,... oh well guess i shall go now. i've been using too much comp!
anyway on a side note, i was immensely touched yesterday when a guy from MPS offered to drive me to my clementi home from bishan. he went home (a road away) to collect his car keys, and drove me home. i realise that i always feel exceptionally touched when guys walk me home or drive me home. another very touching inccident is a guy who sent me home from Pasir Ris to clementi (east to west), and then make his way home in AMK (north). so he went from east to west to north. very touching la.. and it was only abt 9pm... i dont find that late... some guys are just so gentleman. and i realise that i am quite a sucker at such guys move. but then again, i always feel that i am too... oh welll. shall not say.
okay! anyway my schedule these days is - play hard work hard. my exams is next next monday and i'm still enjoying myself. i think this is fine so long i still take the effort to study hard when the time is required. anyway i'm still in year 1 sem 1. i should stil; be enjoying my life in sch! and indeed i am~! without sacrificing my school performance.
truth be told, i am astonished with my good performance and balance between school work and play. i am still attendin the meet-ppl-session every tue, and attending Salsa lesssons on thurs. my schdule has been pretty relaxed this week given that all my tuition lessons came to a halt since they were all having examinations!
okay i sian to type alr. i'm in the library now discussing with a friend on the differences between males and females. he jsut told me that males' eye range of view is wider- if you get what i mean. intersting.
okay take caer guys! anywzay i've been shopping online at this spree site http://toothybuck.livejournal.com it's perfectly safe; it's my friend's friend site. enjoy yourself!

Hey hey! it's me once more. Feels like it's years since i've last blogged on this blog, or even saw the BLOGGER homepage. I half expected the appearance of the Blogger page to change. I was so sick of blogging for the last 7 weeks! As part of my Communications Module in the uni, i was forced to create a blog to blog about what I've learnt during lessons that week. And that's not the worst part. The worst was that i had to begggg people to COMMENT for my blog! And personally... who likes to comment? And my teacher wants the comments to reflect that the reader has thought about the article i wrote and not just a skimp comment like "great blog. I agree what you say.". So it was like literally a begging experience i faced for the past 7 weeks. And why am I so desperate for comments? That's because your comments will affect my grades! *sheirks*. So if you would be so kind to help me comment.. Any comment will do. A 2 lines is also good when it shows some mental processing =X http://kellyschoolwork.wordpress.com
Anyway, i don't have much time to blog now. gotta take my lunch. Life is good. Not as busy as working experience, but surely not as fun as my time spent with my dear colleagues. But nevertheless, I am enjoying myself studying Psychology over here! :) Give me a minute to brag about myself will ya? I was extremely delighted with myself- I got 90% for my Communications module, 92% for Music and 95% for Psychology (my markes was later added). Those grades are my mid-year examination grades. Feeling so motivated to study harder for my end-of-year exams in early Dec! last paper is 11Dec. Do ask me out! ;)
On a side note, i wish to say this- it's so wierd. Sometimes the moment you wish for something to good to happen because it's not happening at all, too many of these 'good' things will then happen to you. Making it undesirable? And i turned out to be too.. choosy? I don't understand myself. BUt i'm sure i'll eventually make the right decision. (:
And one last bit about myself. I joined the Salsa CCA in SIM! so i'm like dancing away every week! so cool! Gals don't be jealous of me! ;) And i'm still at Meet ppl session every Tue @ Bishan. Helping peeps probs is so fun. (: at least you can make a diff in their life!
Loving my life, and trying to appreciate it better, Kelly.

woo hoo! Today is my birthday and i am excited to say that this week that is counting down to my actual Birthday has been a fabulous one!! :) I have spent the entire week celebrating my birthday! :)
The aftermath of this long week of celebration? I simply love my family and friends to greater heights!
Last week has been a long one! On Tuesday, i went for my SIM Uni @ Buffalo, State Uni of New York orientation! We went to Sentosa in the afternoon for games. fun!
On Wednesday, i went back to my beloved Drew Ameroid office to work! My farewell gift to them was a 1KG cake from The Patissier. The cake is so delicious and heavenly that i must absolutely let them try before i leave the company! My dad was so nice to deliver the cake to my office for me! :) They loved the cake. On a side note--> the cake cost me $80. haha but it is worth the money.
In the evening, to my great surprise, all my close colleagues (the entire female gang) attended and treated me to a farewell dinner at Harbour Front! We ate at a Ala-carte Chinese buffet. Delicious food! I was already so moved by their presence. They got me a wallet as a Birthday present. *shocks* and to add to my further surprise, one of the lady Shermin, hand-made a Swarvoski bracelet and keychain! *faints*
My colleagues rock so much.
On Thursday. I went to Malaysia shopping with my friend and was accompanied by my dad who took care of us and drove us around since he happened to be there for a business trip! :) i'm thankful i din blow my budget. it was a beautiful day with fantastic dinner by the Johor coast.
On Friday, I went to my Drew Ameroid office for the last time. Once again, my dear colleagues surprised me by throwing me a farewell party! wait. i think it's a Birtday party. They bought me a cake to blow, and Adeline cooked a beautiful side-dish. But most importantly, they hand-made a Birthday card for me with all the pics of their heads on it!
My colleagues absolutely rocks. They have definitly start my Birthday week in a very grandeur manner. Since then, i've been smiling almost ever moment. :)
I have learnt so much from each and everyone of them. From the wise words from Erica who is an Optimist in life to the wise Janece. And my clubber neighrbour Little Karen who is silent yet smart.. Adeline the most caring mother and best cook i've seen yet. Kathleen the fastest eye and hand speed that i've ever seen when at work; the sexy and loving Shermin who is always wiling to give me a morning lift to work; Pamela the fruits-stall auntie.. and not forgetting.... *drumroll please** Miyuki who is absolutely my best love and life counsellor.. who still look as hot as ever though she's married.. and Justina! the Clementi yet most resourceful lady. :) And also the next love counsellor, Mr Ivan who i'll remember him as the sports car driver. :)
My days working at the office is without doubt, made very enjoyable by their presence! and they have helped me out significantly in all the tough situations at my workplace and etc! :)
Drew Ameroid will definitly have a place in my heart. The best working experience i've ever have. :) *From late March till late Aug- 5 months*
=================================== On saturday, i spent the entire day with my family! the day was very meaningful and quality time was spent as for the first time, i had a dinner personally with my family and grandmother. My grandmother do not usual join in. I am very happy that it was a dinner with truly one big family at Seoul Garden. :)
On Sunday, I spent my evening with Yingli at Clarke Quay. It was a beautiful place and i enjoyed her company! We ate at Steak House. Though it was the most costly meal i've ever spent on, i enojoyed the dinner. (: And yes! i love her present!! it was a very nice surprise from her to get me Sephora bronzer/ highlighter makeup set! Thanks ji-dan! :) Our definitly not want to lose such a thoughtful of caring friend!
On MONDAY which is 31st Aug, the actual day of my birthday, after my first day of sch at SIM which inccidentaly happens to be a pretty fine day, i went out with Mingyan for my birthday celebration~! Although we did not exactly go to any special place, we spent a very quality time with each other, catching up on each other's latests updates! it was certainly a good evening. And she gave me a present of Luck! haha! how thoughtful of her. But frankly, i think she needs more luck than me la! But it's so touching that she's always so thoughtful for me. :) Overall, it was a good outing that strengthened our friendship. :)
At night after that, i rushed home to have my family birthday celebration! I blew a nice Tiramusu cake that my dad bought, and i received my presents! i felt kind of awkward when i start receiving my dad's imaginative yet practical bithday presents like highlighter, pen, correction tape and paper clips. When my actual gift finally comes, i was so gleeful! He got me a Burberry- Touch for Ladies perfume!! it looks so splendid! and most importantly, i adore the scent! to me, it smells so feminine and sexy and yet not too heavy on the nose! woah! my dad has a good sense of smell!! :)
-----------------------------------------------
All my family and friends are all so thoughtful towards me and that really moves me. Their effort to think of ways to bring a smile on my face, to make me cheerful, already means so much to me. The size or price of the present or the presence of it does not really matters. What's most significant is that i can feel the sincerity in your heart to make me happy! And i can feel it! Thank you so much everyone for making my 19th Birthday such a memorable and loving one! I feel so well-loved. For the first time in my life, i can feel the true meaning of Birthdays.
Birthdays are not meant for you to count how much presents or blessings you receive. But it is instead a day for you to realise how important you are to the people around you, and how much you are loved and cherished by them. It is a Show-of-Appreciation Day from others, and a Day-I-Realise-I'm-Loved Day for myself.
Don't you down-grade the value of your gift when the receiver herself isn't. All presents are still signs of love and gratitude to me. And I thankful for the time and effort you spent choosing the presents for me! :)
Lots of Love, Kelly C.

Please be warned that the below entry is verrry boring:
hoho! i'm back! i'm still cheerful as usual except that i am starting to get tired of waking up early for work every morning and tired of working at my full-time office-bound job every 5-day week. i started wondering- HEY is this MY holiday? i am supposedly on a hOliDaY right now righttt...? Why do i still need to wake up so early every morning? I found these questions absurd. Why do i only start asking myseld these qs only after 8 full of months of holiday? My holiday started since Nov 20th and i took like a 4 day break immediately after my last exam paper before starting to work!! i think it is crazy and i guess i've only jussst realised so. -retarded-
my first thought is: shouldn't i be damn rich by now? given that i have been working for 8 months so far since late Nov? hmm.... unfortunately i am still not. fine. i have been supporting myself financially in every ways in terms of allowance and transportation fees. I no longer ask my dad for a single drop of money these days. But i seriously think this is not a good reason to give myself, for my current bank status. I am currently stilll short of expectation of 3K?? sighs....
well then i started pushing the blame to my salary. Before CPF, i earn less than $1000 monthly. After CPF, goodness knows how much i am left with. So i earn little. i hope i am feeling better now, knowing that er... i have been earning little so i can be spared for my misreable amount of savings after working for my full-time job for 8 months? hehe.. =D
-------------- money issues aside. well i am currently superbly please with my current workplace that i work at for my full-time job. The colleagues are superb. so great that i have trouble deciding who not to keep in touch after i leave this company. There is my opposite neighbour Karen a.k.a the cool clubber gal; the Clementi lady who is still young and single Justina; the very sweet West Coast lady driver Sharmane who is always willing to give me a ride to work if i am late for company van; and my love counsellor, Miyuki! The other love counsellor i have is a married male, Ivan but i don't think it'll be easy for me to keep in touch with him. haha... and i also will not forget my 2 lady boss- Kathleen and Adeline. haha...
with 3 weeks to go for me to work in Drew Ameroid (S) P/L, i am gonna make full use of it to chat more with my colleagues =X and to learn more! i seriously feel that i learn more social skills here instead of working knowledge. i mean, any new comer that is meticulous in his work and is fast in working, can fill in my position already. And just be polite when coordinating with them! i only learnt some coordial email sentences.... bleahz. nothing much.
anyway, one of my friend is becoming increasingly moody these days and i don't get that person.
as for my online perfume shop, i lack the enthusiasm to finish it promptly. i'm still struggling with my discipline to work on it.

Well well. It feels like years since i’ve last blogged in this blog. Hmm… let me give you guys a summary on my activities these days.
My boss has just informed me that they are willing to extend my job contract to 21AUG as per my request. It was originally due to end by the month end of July. I was delighted by the fulfillment of my request. But later in the afternoon, my smaller boss told me that our business is doing very badly these days. But strangely, I am still occupied enough. But for most of the time, I am feeling pretty cool. I can’t swing my leg so much, but it looks like I can at least shake my leg. I’m contentd.
Scary as it might sound, it is true. I am currently having a full-time job, 3 part-time jobs and one volunteering job since the month of June. My full-time job will end by 21st Aug which will end just in time for my school to start on the 31st aug which is incidentally my birthday. The 3 part-time jobs that I have are my 2 tuition students and my Living Pharmacy job at West Coast Plaza.
I am currently tutoring one Pri 5 science student and one Secondary 4 N.A student combined Bio-Chem and E.M. I see the sec 4 student twice a week and the P5 boy once a week. And I work in the pharmacy once a week- on Sundays. In short, I am working 5 days a week right now in the company that I love as a full-time job with a regular working hours.
I joined the Young PAP at Bishan as one of my friends had invited me to join. I don’t think I would ever join a constituency that far away from my house if I don’t know anyone there. One of the activities that we’re helping out in is in the meet-people-session every Tue. Anyone keen to join? In here, we help the citizens who need the MP help to resolve the problems e.g. housing loans, homeless, jobless, etc. How can we contribute our help? All that we need to do is to just help them write a letter with the information given by them.
I find such volunteer job more exciting and brain-stimulating than helping out at the old folks home or doing fund raising. Don’t you think so? I feel very satisfied with myself after each session and I always feel a sense of accomplishment each time I have successfully written a letter for the individual. It’s not easy to write a letter on their behalf as you need to crack your brain to think of how to write a letter that will aid in their problem and most importantly, to be able to write a succinct one. It might be difficult initially, but you will get a chance to learn how to! And besides, it is precisely because this job is slightly challenging that makes this volunteer job more fun! (:
----------------------------------------- Here’s a review of a typical week of mine. On Mondays, I will tutor the P5 boy after work. On Tuesdays, I will go for my volunteering job. On Wednesdays, I am FREE after work!! *Jump jump*. On Thursdays I will tutor the sec 4 girl after work, on Friday, NO work can ever touch me after working hours. and on Saturdays, I see the sec 4 girl in the early afternoon and I can hang out with my girlfriends after my tuition! And on Sundays, I will have my Living Pharmacy job!
Allow myself to clarify. It is not that I am in desperate need of money to survive, but it is by chance that I was offered these jobs. I found this pharmacy job before I got my full-time job. At that time when I accepted it, I was jobless. So I was working for 2 jobs for 2 months from late Mar till end of May. In late May I contacted about 4 tuition agencies, thiking that they will take months to find me a tuition student. Never did I know, that it only took them a week to find one for me! To my surprise, I accepted 2 tuiton students within the same day from 2 separate agencies. I had to even turn down 2 students. Thus if you say you have difficulty finding job, I am sorry to say that I find this hard to believe.
Meanwhile, apart from my busy working life, I am also in the midst of creating my own perfume blog shop! I know of a perfume cum bag distributor who can charge me at veryy low rates! Anyone keen in buying perfume from me? I only sell authentic and branded perfume! (: I will announce to all of you when my blog shop is done! I aim to complete it by the end of this month.
Apart from my perfume blog shop business, I also created another blog! It is a venue where I put my opinions about the life around us, into a blog. That blog is less personal; unlike this blog. But the main difference of that blog is that I am also inviting my friends to join in to have their own say too! So meaning to say, that blog will have more than 1 author. Currently, there are already 3 authors in that blog- MIngyan, Yingli and myself! Check us out at www.fullofwords.wordpress.com. It is newly created so don’t expect too much from it!
Hmm.. well I guess you can tell that I am currently having a pretty busy lifestyle. As a result, I feel that I have less time for my best friends. I feel that I don’t have enough time for myself to read a book or so, needless to say to spend more time with my friends! Despite that, I feel that feel that friends are still more important than self so I ought to be spending more time with them! But I am just to tired everyday with my life. How can I have time for all of them! Right now, I have 2 friends in trouble, 2 very happy friends- ming ming and ton-ton and 2 neutral friends who are simply contented with their life.
Even though I am so busy, I still feel that it is important for me to catch up with them once in a while to check how they’re doing! It’s important to make our close ones feel important and cherished! And that is my personal aim. None of my friends should feel neglected! Cheese! Lol. (:

hey hey hey! guess what's the FIRST sentence that i'm just going to say just like any Singaporean?
"WA LAO! the weather is freaking hot man!" and indeeeeed it is. so warm.. humid.. and sweaty... :[
the weather is also affecting even my shopping trip! it makes me moody... till i see FOOD! just like yesterday.. i was feeling so moody cus we wanted to watch a show but all the movie queues are so loooong? i was in that state till my friend brought me to this Waraku Jap restaurant.. the food is fab la! it is so much better than the typical Sake Sushi/ Itchiban Suchi/ Sushi Tei where their food menu is so typical.... YAWN. at this Waraku restaurant, their food is like very unique? it's definitly suitable for ppl who have the likes of Seafood and a bit of Western food.
that was in the evening. after taking our owwwwn sweeet time to eat at that restaurant at Heeren, my friend brought me to Pub! it's like oh-my-god. this is so cool la! we drank a Lychee Martini, a Mango Tequila and a duno what that i drank. i think Tequila has the highest alcholic content.. we stayed till 11pm where i need to rush home. well it's my first time drinking so much! i usually take a few sips from my dad's cup and i don't like the tast. but i especially like the drinks that are served here! waha.. overall, the pubs/ bars there have super dim lights. overall, everything was good and i felt slightly drunk so we took a cab home. and i'm proud of my friend's control over everything. haha..
the Waraku restuarant and drinking at PubAlley was on Saturday night. on Saturday late morning/ evening, i was with my dad and bro where we watched Terminator! it is definitly a very good show with super good special effects. i found everything so realistic and impactful? every movement and sound on screen is so vivid and realistic that i found myself moving my neck to the side when the car/monster flew towards the camera. it's like the car was approaching towards ME! HELP! haha.. how silly of me. (:
=========================== on the previous week, i went to Johor Bahru on Friday eveing! my dad was there for a business trip as usual, and i met him in City Square- a JB shopping mall- there! if u're surprise, allow me to make you feel marvelled and amazed with me. =P
That Friday was the first time that i went to Malaysia in 6 yrs, which makes it as good as my first trip to Malaysia in my life. and i went to JB for the first time all alone!! woo hoo! wahahaha.. my colleague Adeline was so worried for me la.. she kept telling me how she had got lost in the check-point at M'sia at the first time she went there... haha.. she tried to discourage me to go there alone but here i am back again in S'pore safe and sound! :)
I am very glad of myself about how i controlled my spending at JB. most of the clothes there are definitly much cheaper but i used my HEAD to think before buying anyuthing! i ended up buying just only 2 items!! :) i bought a beautiful white dress and a brown satin-material top. :)
i converted SGD104.50 to RM200 when my dad thought that i was going to spend SGD200. how wrong was he when i found out that i onlyt spent about SGD60! we took taxi to the few places that i'm about to mention.. After meeting at City Square, we went to Holiday Plaza where the clothes were almost like Bugis Street clothes.. i was almost bored, but i'm glad i eventually bought the brown satin top which i really like... :) And then he brought me to The Zon where everything there is tax free! we ate our dinner there. the ambience of the restaurant look soo nice? it has the resemblance of Clarke Quay's posh restaurants but thankfully not the price of the menu.
the food there is verty high-class yet reasonably priced. we ate fried rice at SGD5.. and we ate some pizza and drank some beer which i don;t like.... i think beer taste like some herbal soup?? :/
so overall, the day was fabulous. i enojoyed myself a lot going there with my dad and i hope to be able to go there with some girls too! :)
================== right now, i'm doing all fine - as usual. ladies keep asking me if i'm single as though i am so old or what. i also duno. haha.. but i am still single! but i am just enjoying my current status now.. cus right now i am just going out on solo trips with 3 different guys and i like it this way! except that i feel that it sounds like i'm flirting with guys like that... :( but being single is certainly the best way to go out with everyone! so i'm contented now.. :)
there's only one problem la. my weekend schedule always appear very busy. so i'm usually not very happy if u cancel my appointment on the day of the evvent. and i work at the pharmacy every Sunday, which definitly shorten my days....
and i've decided to start looking for tuition agency to take me in as their tutor! i started finding on tuesday...
so if i eventually get a tutoring job, wow. life would be super busy. with my normal work/ studies, Young PAP on Tuesday nights and weekends, Living Pharmacy on Sundays and Tuition on whichever days that they want, and not forgett8ing my friends! wow... haha..

heya! it's been such a loooong time since i've last blogged! well... i duno what's new that's happened to me since i've last blogged.
only know that i'm amazingly at this YoungPAP activity at Bishan that my friend has invited me. turns out that it's just a meet-the-people's session that citizens have weekly if they've any complaints... so our job is to listen and help them be their voice to type out a letter to get the attention of the respective ppl. so far, it seems complicated. ppl's complaints thus far are: a divorced woman, a bankrupt man and a jobless man. and i'm free now so i'm typing away! except that the table next to me got 2 indian guys that are served by someone else and they have nothing to do except to turn and look at me. i feel quite threathend as i feel as though they're going to box me anytime.... :/ and i heard that their problem is prison i think. but i just turned my head to smile at the bravely earlier. =) they're surprise. haha..
My weekdays are usually filled with activities and meetings after work. This is exceptionally true on Fridays. However, last week surprisingly turned out to be a very silent week. I did not go out at all for the entire 5 days of the week last week! i'm proud of myself. hee =D so i only went out on one day to go out shopping. haha..
I usually meet 2 friends on my Saturdays- one in the afternoon and the other evening. But i only meet one friend on Saturday! i'm amazed with myself!
Well, i bought my first Charles & Keith shoe on Saturday! i bought a snake-looking skin sandal which i LOVE! it lks so pretty especially if it's worn with dresses. i love it! i went to buy it with YingLi at Suntec! Thanks to her UOB Debit card, i got a 15% discount with her shoe.
------------------------------------------ As for th previous week, i shopped with her on Friday at Marina Square! On that day, she was seriously a big shopper! i;m amazed with her! But i think her purchase was great la. beautiful dress that she bought.. (: as for myself, i bought a pair of Miss Selfbidge black leggings! this is the 2nd time that i'm buying black leggings, but it's the first time that i'm buying a good quality one! my previous one was a lousy-quality $10 legging that got torn... and it's thin! :|
on saturday, i met up with radhia ton-ton at Jurong Point! i bought a black dress that has only one shoulder-strap! haha! my dad said my dress makes me look like Tarzan's wife... :( But still, i love it! This dress was atually on sale at $19. But as i am in good terms with the sales lady, she agreed to sell me at $15! LOL. i can't believe how i can actually push my luck this well. haha.. (:
In the evening on the same day after meeting radhia, i met up with another friend of mine at Vivo! it was great! but i spent quite a fair bit.. we ate at Secret Recipe and at Haagen Daz to eat their fabulous ice-cream! both restaurants are my first time patronising it. I also bought a pair of very comfy Anna Nucci black flats for $15 as it's on sale. they were a really great buy. Also, i got quite a lot of useful feedbacks on which shoe i look best in, and what not. so in short, that day was fab! however, it was a waste that ming-ming was unable to join me in my mini outings on that week as she had a busy weekend. :(
---------------------------- as for the week before -which is 2 wks ago from now-, i can't remb what happened. o.O lalala
anyway, i'm still waiting for my letter from the local uni for admission. :/ so.. right now, i'm only accepted into the Psyhology course of SIM. well well... i can't say i will be disappointed or what so ever if i'm not accepted into the local uni. my A level results weren;t great and frankly, i think i am not cut out for it. however, i just hope that they can see beyond my academic grades, to give me a chance to study Psychology in their school. Pls see some hope beyond my grades! O.O
i will just accept my fate to any university posting result. After all, i am who I am. And there's no way you are allowed to change me. I am contented with the brains i have. so it's either you accept me or that's your lost. i have nothing to lose as nothing your decision making can give me an ill-treatment of life.
lalala... i am typing for way tooo long. gotta go off! take care everyone@! love you! :) Kel.

AHEM. yes i am back to my blogging and i aint dead! haha.. i am just either too lazy or busy to use the comp these days...
well well.. what have i been doing? hmm... LOADS of events happened.
As mentioned in my previous entry, i left my Radio Holladn company voluntarily a month ago. then i was jobless for one week- just doing some small jobs. And before i could enjoy my break w/o a job, i'm back working! In this very enormous MNC company that is way bigger than Radio Holland. This company is called ASHLAND. But ASHLAND created a few subsidary companies and one of them is the one i'm currently working in- Drew Ameroid P/L.
ahy do i say Drew Ameroid is a BIG MNC? cus this subsidary company of ASHLAND is usually smaller right? but.. Drew is worldwide. I saw Radio Holland overseas companies before. It only has about 15 companies in the world. i found it quite little when i first realised it. and i was right; cus Drew Ameroid is really worldwide- it has bout 30-50 companies in the world i think.
let me try to cut short short my story.. hmm.. i am working as a sales coordinator/ customer service in the marine division. Doesn't it sound familiar? My previous company is Radio Holland which is a marine company. Drew Ameroid isnt a marine company. it does EVERYTHING from marine to industrial to oil? a bit mad. liek some extremly wealthy and rich bully in the world. hahaa..
as a sales coordinator, i receive sales quotations from companies who wanna buy our products. so i need to quote for them our goods and prices. and if they oonfirm this quotation, they will send us a Purchase Order (PO). then we will finally use that old Quote and finalise it to create a Confirmed Order. With this confirmed order, the respectove warehouse in whcihever country the customer want, will deliver the goods to teh respective vessel. remb..we're doing marine business.. so we're dealing with vessels/ ships.
I absolutely LOVE my job now? not only is it sooooo much more interesting, i need to USE my brain. really. the moment i day-dream, i wil definitly make a mistake or two. which is totally not the case in my prev comopany as Admin Asst.? i just need to be moving and have ears to listen can le. don't need brain. lols.
so... i must always think when i'm working here. plus tehre's some communication involved la. I must always read and reply to customers emails..... and most importantly, I LOVE my colleagues. WAHAHAAH.. (1) absolutely witty and hilarious. (2) i learn lots of things from them; they're v knowledgeable la. (3) they bring me to very nice restaurants for lunch and recommend food to me that i would never dream of eating. (4) they are super caring? they are always shairng food with eaach other? share chocolates, biscuits, kuai, noodles etc. so i also like to share my foodie la. seriously right. i eat way way way toooo much here. wahhaha..
and um... most importantly, it is dam* near; it's behind Tanglin Sec which makes it in Clementi area. tehre's actually a direct bus from workplace to home... but this company got their own bus transport. so.. i take it la! hahha.. so i reach home by 6pm daily if i dont get anywhere after work. haha..
The only setback in this current job is that... if i am good, they will hire a permamnent worker, which means they would need to fire me la. :/ but they just extended my contract another one month. so i know for sure that i'll be working in Drew Ameroid for 2 months! good enough i guess. haha! :)
==================================== hmm.. i remeber very clearly that i've yet to mention a single thing about my A level results. haha.. let me put it plainly: i diddn't do too well for it but I er.. improved by a few grades for all my subjects except GP and Bio. haha.. so.. I am CONTENTED with myself! I got majority C grades lor. yeap. i think i imprpoved a lot cus i've been seeing lots of Es and Us (ungraded- worst grade) in my 2 yrs of JC. so i'm contented! but i messed up my GP and Bio. Till today, i can't believe i got that grade. i think i don't deserve it la. haha.. but well, at least i passed everything. lol.. i've very low expectations right. haha.. but i don't care what you have to comment. haha..
I am taking up the course in Psychology. I applied for NTU, NUS, SIM Psychology and nothing else. I also applied for Education in Science (Ba. Sci) which is for prospective teachers in MOE. So far i've only received letter from SIM about my acceptance. I've decided to go for the August intake instead of May as it is too rush. So if i don't get any letters from the 2 local Unis, i will be attending SIM in August. wel... i don't want to think about my application results. Logically i think that my chances of entering the local Uni with such grades of mine are extremly slim. So i am weighing my chances on luck and nothing more. >.< Don't think about it. That's best. (:
====================================== as for my daily life, hmm.. i've some interesting inccident with Joel earlier this month. I feel quite shiok this time. lol. cus this time, i am the one who is walking away. woots! "I'm walking awayyyy.. from teh troubles in my life.." by Walking Away- Craig David. It's an old song but i love the lyrics.
as for my friends, i'm meeting certain ppl very regularly. lols. i meet ming yan once to twice a week, celestine every Wednesday and Yingli almost once a week (which is very cool since she stays in AMK!) haha.. but distance is not a problem man! c'mon! hahaha!
one of my best pal Samantha will be having her IB (international Burea....) exam in 1-2 weeks time!!! IB exam is like A levels except that it's more advanced. I wish her BEST of luck man!!!! but she's a very smart girl. i'm sure she'll do perfectly well! :) JIA YOU Mantha!! i'll pray hard for you. :) lol. idon't think she's even reading this la.
and i'm having quite a number of disputes a lot with one of my best pals a lot lately. I feel very bad. cus i am always the cause of the problem. i feel like an evil person who keep piercing her heart. sigh... but i'll change for the better alright? If i see hope in you, you should also see hope in me, and give me a chance. =D you go little little arsenal fan! :)
===================================== the next topic i wanna touch about is on Shopping! Celestine and I are recently trying our best to go in a different direction! We start telling ourself that it's pointless to spend so much on clothes. that we should only shop on necessities. i don't think i can cut down on shopping, but i'm trying my best by hitting the shopping malls less! but i feel quite tempted to buy more shoes lately! cus i have 2 spoilt shoes now, and the third one is about to spoil soon! I feel a bit unusual as my outside shoes have never been spoilt before cus i've always been schooling before this year, soi've always been wearing my really gd quality Converse or Reebok shoes that never fail? bleah.
but well, at least celest and i are trying toc ut down our trips to the mall so that's a good sign! lalala.. so we end up meeting very frequently at West Coast Plaza (formally Ginza Plaza). Last wed was pretty cool. We ate an interesting Steamboat Fish Head at a coffee shop. and ended teh night by drinking and eating Oreo Cheesecake. wahah.. talking about interesting food! me and migyan ate Sambal Stingray, Chili Kang Kong and Chili Sotongs!!!! it was an extremly extremly HOT night for migyan and I. wahaha! that day was super memorable and i like to remind her that inccident once in a while. ;)
and talking about food. i ate at Thai Express yesterday! i ate Green Curry! there are so many delicious food in the menu la! i wannnnna go there again! i'm gonna drag one of my friends there soon. lalala.. anyway i also ate at Sakura International buffet with my Radio H colleague a few months back! it was absolutely fantastic! i recommened alllll of you to eat there if you've yet to taste the buffet food! prices at $25. she also brought me to a buffet at Bugis recently but i diddn't quite like the food as i found it unhygenic and tasteless. :/ but it was a good night la. haha..
========================= lalala.. i duno what to talk about now. actually i'm now in my dad's office and yingli has just arrived! and there's a packet of chicken rice in front of me while i'm typing.. haha...
something random for myself to reflect on. My Good Friday last wk was quite interesting.... i ate at Gelare for the first time! teh ice-cream on waffle tasted great! i also watched Shinjuku Inccident movie at The Cathay. the movie ok la.. but teh popcorn was fab! :) On the week before that, I watched 12 Rounds at GV with ming ming and ton ton! hahaa.. that day was quite good la. except that i was feeling pretty down. and again, i'm teh evil person as i spread the down-cast feelings to teh both of them. which is like omg. i feel very bad. :[ overall, i believe we had a great bonding session! haha! :)
ok i nothing to talk already. i hope that you guys will notice that i'm less long-winded today. hahaha.. i am trying to improve myself ok. lalalala... anyway i am still trying my best to master the skill of not looking at the keyboard totally when i type. don't look and yet type fast, and to use both hands to type; not just my right hand. haha..
anyway, here's Britney Spears latest video. to me there's a lot of sexual concotations. but perhaps it's my imagination? haha..

PART I; subsequent parts shall be blogged soon (i hope)
PART I: RADIO HOLLAND HELLO! Wow it feels ages since I’ve last blogged isn’t it. Well, I’ve quite a few events that I need to talk on.. firstly it’s the A lvl results that I’ve received 2 Fridays ago -6th Mar. Next, is the very busy week I had last week as a receptionist in Radio Holland and the various dinners that I had in restaurants with 3 different groups of people. And as for this week, I am dreading how busy I might get.
Well let me start with my current status now ok? I’ve finally left my company- RADIO HOLLAND, Singapore last fri! I have been postponing my departual day repeatedly but I’m finally out. I absolutely love the colleagues there. There are just so many ppl that I can socialize so well with? Of course there’s my newly founded good friend- Audrey from the Purchasing Dept. Actually coming to think abt it, I’ve not made any good chatting partners from my Finance Dept. I’m in talking terms with them of cus, but not great pals. Haha.. Then there’s 2 ppl from the Commercial Dept- Chris & Yvonne. I can chit chat with Yvonne all day la. From the Service Dept (level one), there’s Eileen Lek and Nancy that I can chat very well with too. Yeap yeap. Hmm… each dept has abt 10 ppl but I never talked much to peeps from other dept like logistics, procurement, drafting, fabrication and what not.
But hey I enjoyed myself a lot with these ppl la! My last day was supposed to be last tue. But it turned out to be my last day in the finance dept (as a credit controller). My colleague Ivy, bought me 2 fruits after lunch! And at the end of the day, she got me a box of chocolates & 2 mini packet of crackers. I have a suspicion that they are her break food so I feel kindof guilty. But I am immensely touched la!!! (:
As you know, I thought my last day was tue. So I bought a box of Guylian chocs and went around the 2 level company, giving chocs to ppl who I am of good talking terms with! But before giving out the chocs, I went to my HR manager’s office and chatted for a super super super long time with her la. I originally approached her to seek her advise on what kind of temp jobs I can take up after that day. So she started advising me on where to work and where not to, and even started recommending me which industry to work at to seek better guys! Super lol. I think I spent almost 20 mins in her room, chatting with her. Hahaha.. Eventually at the end of our chatting session, she offered me a position as a receptionist for our company for 3 days since the existing one is having a course.
So there I was, working as a Receptionist for Radio Holland from wed to Friday that week! Although it was a 3 day experience! It was certainly very fun! I picked up phone calls and directed them to various extension numbers of my co-workers! It is a little tedious actually. Given that there are 90+ ppl in the company. So when u request for a name, I need to scan through the name list to identify the ext no. tat I need to dial to direct you to. I took so long that one caller joked and asked me “you have 100 workers is it??”. And when I said YES, he was speechless. Lol. You think so easy to direct the phone line is it?? =/
As a receptionist, I was also a door opener for visitors and postman and I encountered some weird men. Haha.. weird weird one. So it was a pretty interesting job working as a recept. I also had to open up all the mails for the personnels of my company (excluding P&C mails) and pass them to respective person. And provide stationeries for my colleagues… in short, being a Recept is quite slacky at times and yet quite busy and entertaining at times. (: and the best part? There is a lot of privacy since when there are no visitors, there’s just no one! I’m next to the entrance, a flight of staircase that leads to offices upstairs, and a door that separates the offices at the first level, from the recept. Some of my colleagues ended up “visiting” me for a very good and long (5 mins plus) chat at my recept counter! And someof them were caught by their boss. Super funny la. I kept laughing openly when I saw their guilty faces. Hahaha..
Here's my point of view of the arena from my recept table: the door & flight of stairs
Me as the Receptionist!!
ME! (:
My HR manager gave me a box of teh-tarik on my last day. She and another man- Jonathan gave me their name cards and allowed me to cal them to ask for jobs in future! My HR manager suggested me not to come back for the next 6 mths, so that I can work for this company without being tied to my job agency. Cus I am currently being paid by my job agency- Recruit Express instead of Radio Holland. And you know what I realized from my HR manager?? For every HOUR that I work at Radio Holland, Recruit Express takes away $4 of my salary. in other words, if I had found this company directly without going through agency, I will be earning $10/hour. &*%$ haha..
But oh well, I am grateful that Radio Holland has given me a chance to work in 3 different job positions!! (1) Admin Assistant for the Finance Dept; (2) Credit Controller Asst. (3) Receptionist. I’ve learnt a lot, and realized that a lot of the ppl there are very very friendly and sociable. :) Actually I am leaving this company as I want to change job scope. I would be more than happy to work as a Receptionist there but it’s a pity that they’re not hiring part-timers. But still, it’s been a GREAT experience! And I’m glad I leave this company with a friend- Audrey! (: OK I gtg now.
Shall continue typing more later (18th Mar- 3pm )

The 2008 A level results will be out tmr! oh well i won't deny that i get butterflies in the stomach each time i think abt it. but seriously, i feel as though i can't really be bothered. i am not genuinely concerned? cus each time u bring the topic abt "RESULTS" into my mind, i'm worried. bu if you stop mentioning it, i'll forget entirely about that topic in 5 seconds. haha... even if i try to ponder what route i shld take after collecting my results, i think it is a pretty superficial thinking too. cus i'll try to think abt my possible routes for a while, and after erm.. 1 minute of thinking, i lost trace of my thoughts and i'll end up thinking abt other more "interesting" topics like jobs, blogshop or shopping.
if you see my attitude as a positive one -since i am far from being worried-, well i wld agree with you. yet i think it is also a pretty negative one since i feel that i am in a "hack care" attitude. i mean most of my friends could tell me where they are intending to go. like which course or what. but personally, i am torn between 2 courses- Biological sciences and Psychology- which are 2 different worlds apart from each other. so i am torn by the possibilities. but then again, it is not like i've got options since these 2 courses are 2 very competitive courses.
but since most courses in the local uni these days are so challenging to enter, i am starting to look at foreign universities that has its base in Singapore. e.g. are SIM, psb academy,UNLV, Kaplan, MDIS and the list goes on. Here's a link to the foreign uni in s'pore (pls scroll down when u're in that site). Note that some of them were mentioned in the MOE site itself. http://www.singaporeedu.gov.sg/htm/stu/stu0107.htm also, my colleague voluntarily took a copy of University brochures for me this morning. it is called "The First Degree; March 2009", published by TODAY newspaper. this magazine is supplementary to the daily TODAY newspaper. so you need to take for yourself if you want it. well, i am very touched that she took it for me! Aside from all the scholarships that are offered by othe local companies, the later part of the magazine has a lot of advertising by the foreign universities in s'pore. but if you diddnt manage get a copy of it this morning, no worries. i'm sure the newspapers have a lot of them too.
=========================== i also saw SIM advertisement at the underground passageway at Citylink yesterday when i was with YingLi and Kokwei. yesterday was certainly a very fun day. the 3 of us (the first time), ate at Ichiban Boshi at Suntec City!! the previous time i ate at that food chain was also Suntec, with jia dan! (: the meal was very delicious. we ate our usual Sashimi set, and instead of eating the fried chicken cutlet which was inccidentally a very delicious and sumptuous one; i ate cod-fish set meal! it was also very nice!! except that it would be better if they served a larger portion. well, fish is always never enough for myself. (:
following that, we took quite a number of pictures! waha.. overall, the day was fabulous. except that i spent $50 on another pair of TRACCE shoes. i feel very guilty cus i just shopped the day before- shall mention about it beneath...
============================== TUESDAY: 03/03 `i went out with celestine!! we went Orchard for shopping! (: well... while waiting for her to arrive, i walked around Takashimaya, and stepped into the M.A.C store in Taka for my FIRST time! well i've been eye'ing at MAC makeup products for ages but never bought their products before as it an American boutique and mind you; a very trendy boutique in the U.S. so naturally it is very ex la. i actually entered the boutique looking for a bronzer, then decided that it isn't worth my money buying it. but the sales guy who assisted me was like so professional?? he said phrases like "i like to use this product when i do my photo-shoot" or "from my experience, eyes look great in magazines when they use this product". i was like so shock?
well it seems like u're not just buying MAC product; you're also paying for their superb service and expertise. so the next time you step into a MAC store, do try your best to bombard them with qs & they can also provide lots of helpful tips!! (: well i complained to him my problem- my eye makeup don't stand out. and he said i could counter it by applying a cream eye-base. he proved it to me by applying a swatch of pink eye shadow on my hand, and another with the cream base beneath. i was so amazed when i saw the significant difference this eye base provides?? the base itself is shimmery and magnificent in appearence. actually the reason why it makes your eyes 'pop' (more obvious) is cus this base is bright in colour; like pearilised silver and yet it aint. so it draws attention to your eyes, and make your eyeshawow colour more beautiful than ever. the effect of this eye base is so terrific that i bought it without much of a dither. it cost me than 40 bucks but it is nonetheless pretty expensive but i've no regrets buying it as is such an excellent makeup product!! (:
overall, the day with celest was pretty cool. (:
===================================== on monday, i met up with my chili MING MING!! ming ming, ming ming!! =D hehe! we met up at west coast plaza (near my house) for dinner! we ate at Fish & Co.! the food was excellent la. i eat till i was shulll full!! and she was also very full! that she had to struggle to eat finish her fish. me on the other hand, did not e=eat finish my fries for i fear that my throat would be spoilt if i am to do so. :|anyway, i treated her to the meal! hehe! i am glad i treat her and not vice versa! =P
following the dinner, we sat at some benches in WCP, ate some snacks & chit chat a LOT! she updated me a lot on her queue list! she diddn't directly tell me what's going to become of me in my 3rd position in the queue, but i know that i'm definitly doomed. esp with so many competitors who are much hotter than me. boo. looks like even cute guys are losing out. NONO! i musn't lose to those other stupid hunky guys!! =( haha i sound like i'm going insane. (:
============================== sunday- celest came to my house and we took pics of clothes for our online blog shop. but i'm not optimistic abt business. bleah. lousy kelly. =[
anyway, i sent my bro to his chinese tuition at 10am in the morning on that day and it ended at 11.30pm. so i ate a delicious breakfast at the market area, and read a book half-heartedly while waiting for my bro lesson to end. even though i was pretty bored, it was still pretty nice to be slacking and to watch the day pass, on a lazy sunday. (:
i sent a dress for altering!! i am very happy that it can be altered! cus it is too large in size for me and i wasn't too pleased with my looks when i wore it. but now that i can make the dress more narrow at my waist, i'm condfident it'll look much suited on me now! :) i also sent a GIORNADO jeans for alerting. my uncle got it for me, but it is way way way too big and the hips. well it cost $20 in total for both clohes, but at least my clothes are not wasted now! (: i'll be collecting it this sun. (:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ anyway, here's a quote from NLB if u're feeling down!! pss. esp to students collecting results TMR:
Patience is virtue
Learn the art of patience. Apply discipline to your thoughts when they become anxious over the outcome of a goal. Impatience breeds anxiety, fear, discouragement and failure. Patience creates confidence, decisiveness, and a rational outlook, which eventually leads to success.
and please don't ask me how i'll do. lalala.. anyway i'll be working half-day tmr at work. hoho. and attending Radhia ton ton's dance performance at 8pm at NUS. what a place to go after collecting resuls. haha.. but if she can perform, it should be a hell lot easier for me to just watch isn't it? so that's why i'm going!! go ton ton!
my sunday plans: ming ming following me to send my bro off to his tuition class. so we'll be having breakfast toghr!! (: then she coming my house. then i meeting my aunt for dinner, then go fetch my dad and her husband from Changi airport. they're flying fromjapan!
take care everyone. god bless!

● @ Saturday, February 28, 2009 ●
ok ever since my dad found a way to connect my laptop to teh internet via wiring, i've been surfing the net very frequently. which certainly spoils my eyes. :/
well my dad headed off to Japan in the wee hours this morning, at 3am! he'll be away for a week. and apart from missing him, this trip of his has a gerater impact on me this time- i've got to baby-sit my little bro! :/ i think saying "baby-sit" is pretty wierd since he is already 7-yrs old... i feel kind of tied-down by him as i have feel more obliged to pay attention to him by playing (since that's the only way he can be entertained).. i felt like surfing the net all the day today but i ended up bringing him to the playground, and taught him how to play a computer game, and the card game UNO.
eh... i played UNO with him for almost 3-4 hours that i am pretty sick of it. Not so much from teh boredom of the game, but the sickening feeling that i had when i had to keep repeating myself on what cards he can possibly put. eh... seriously my bro is a smart kid but i only realised today that he is smart in everything except card games (maybe). lol.. but it's good you know. haha.. so if it is indeed teh case that he is not very smart when it comes to remebering the methods of playing games, it will make him less playful right? but he is a very studious boy who has the passion to study. so he is a pretty safe kid for now; wahha... he's so unlike me. =P
anyway, i feel extremly wierd when i played Britney Spears Circus CD in my bro's presence earlier. it felt so wrong? i felt as sinful as showing him porngraphy. cus i always feel that Britney Spears music ain't so pure? i am a 60% fan of Britney (if you can measure it), and frankly, i think most of her music are indecent and it half of it has sexual connotations. i find her music- Break the Ice (fromn her prev. album- Blackout) quite a nice one lately. i know it's an old track but i find it very catchy recently. But upon reading the lyrics to that song, wahh.. super HOT huh. haha..
here's an excerpt from her Break the Ice track- "and i can't get enough; so let me get it up; ooh looks liek we're alone now; i'm a hit defrost on ya; lets get it blazin; we can turn the heat up if u wanna; just wanna move u but u're forze up"
actually if her tone is chanegd, she may not sound sexual at all. but in my opinion she sound very hot? so ya.. i feel this song is so "pirated" but the tune is nice lei. haha..
ok as for myself, i'm back to my cheerful mood i guess. haha.. i've been typing my resume for the past few nights and i guess i'm almost done with it! except that i'm afraid it'll seem all too superficial. :/
apart from resume, i've been harassing Nicholas to help me create a website for either of my blog shop. well, i guess i have to start working on it first instead of harassing him. but i only know 2 friends who learns HTML in poly. the oher of my friend told me he/she doesn't want to spend his/her holi doing a website. so i shan't discuss abt it to him/her.. but i seriously think it'll be a good distraction for him/her from his/her current problems...... but i shall respect his/her decision.. so i'm looking for nicholas!
besides this, i've been visiting Lucidol website or YouTube to find out ways i can curl my hair! cus my ji-dan yingli lended me her hair curler recently and i've not dared to use it so far, till i've attended the necessary tutorials... so i've been learning online! i fear that i will look like a chaotic person after curling my hair!! >.<
hey GIRLS. i've came across this girl who calls herself RiceBunny, and her videos are GREAT! her video on how to curl hair is good!
but as most of us are not keen in curling hair, there are other videos of hers that u might be interested in such as her vid on how to have larger looking eyes with the aid of white eyeliner pencil:
here's one on her suggestion of wearing the makeup to sch. well frankly i still think it's a bit too bright (bright blue eyeliner), but it certainly looked v nice on her. (:
--------------------- anyway i saw XiaXue's blog for the first time today since a few years back (probably 4 years ago) and i was kind of disappointed with her appearance/ makeup? i thought i remembered her being the very pretty lass? but i think her eye-makeup is like da*n thick and she looks so unnatural? :( sigh.. but well, i must say that she i sdefinitly betetr looking than me and more eloquent la.. lol. i'm saying this as i heard that she is not a good blogger to offend. lol. not that she will ever stumble onto this blog of mine...... haha.. but her video to curl hair is informative la. haha.. but i came across of her undergoing Botox. well... er.. i don't see the need of it. i think she'll look a hell lot nicer if she just tone down her "smokey" eye makeup. hahax. seriously i think her makeup spoils her look. if u want smokey eye makeup, i think the lady that i mentioned above- RiceBunny (Michelle Phan), does very very sexy and subtle (in comparison) smokey eye makeup. if u're keen to see, just check out her channel la.
anyway, John Little is having their usual 20% storewide discount for card members again!! the sale i've been waiting for! i always find it pointless to buy makeup without their 20% sale since tehy are having so many lately. and btw their membership is F.O.C. so do join it if you're too lazy to meet me. haha..
i have a lot to get! cus i've been supressing my purchases for the opast few weeks, awaiting for this sale day to come!! i wanna get Sally Hansens leg spray; Maybelline brown eyeliner crayon, mascara, pencil eyeliner (brown); white/ pearl eyeliner pencil; silver eye-shadow. if u're horrified upon reading this, don't be. these are just my wishlist. i will eventually not get everything (of course). haha..
anyway, i want to end of this blog entry. hmmm... i hope it is a more entertaining read today? i think putting videos looks more interesting. although i'm quite lazy to watch youtube videos most of the time when it's on my friends' blog.... but still, my videos are on makeup! so.. if u're a girl who is girley, i guess it shld be an interesting watch. haha...
and yea. my last words for today are this: i caught wind of rumours that teh A level results will be out this coming fri- 6th March? hmm.. if that's so, it'll be my last day of work. so it's like... wow. dramatic. but cus of this, my plans to go out are now very very shaky. eh... i have 3 friends i am intending to go out this wk, another day for swimming, and another day for collection of results? wah. if my wk goes as planend, my 5-days are fully taken up. :/ but i was still thinking of booking one of my days for a job interview that i have not yet planned for! =/
anyway, i went swimming on friday- yesterday. it was fun as usual, yet tiring. muscle ache! but i feel good! more fit! less flabby flabby. hahaa..
okay nites!! anyway i feel liek changing blog skin. lalala..

Well i have been certainly feeling much more downcast lately cus i'm feeling stressed and drained out from working! ever since i told my boss that i have nothing to do (being an admin assistant), she has been asking me to chase the my company's local customers for debts. hmmm... i dunno how many companies that is in total, but this spreadsheet is very very long. well i am thankful that my male colleague still help me to clear those chasing of local companies' debts, but there's still immensely a lot of work to be done!! and it drives me nuts when she wants me to chase a large number of companies within half of teh day! this task of chaing debts is known as a Credit Controller Assistant. well... so i am now like an Admin Asst. cum Credit Controller Asst..? which explains why i am so freaking busy, with so many tasks to do on my agenda.
however, i am happy to say that this stressful period for me is worthwhile since it is in my view that my resume will look much nicer to be known as a Credit Controller Asst as compared to an Admin Asst.? cus an Credit C asst certainly has much more responsibilities on hand. in short, u're doing more impt things. I was always very envious of my colleague when i saw him collaborate with customers. but i am also doing it now! so there's no longer anything for me to be envious of now. =D hee..
and frankly, i can promise you this- it is more thrilling being a credit controller asst than an admin asst. Cus as a credit-controller asst, you've got to communicate with ppl! via emailing, calling & faxing. I need to use my BRAINS when i think of how i am to type in a cordial n polite manner in my emails and calls. and brains & initiatives are greatly essential in this job; in comparison to an Admin asst. (: well i feel happier now after saying the advantages of my current stressful job. haha..
cus frankly, i felt extremly stressed out when my manager gave me 17 companies to contact at 1.30PM, and she wants them done within 4 hours which was quite a feat for me. cus for some individual companies, i need to contact numerous ppl just for one company as various invoices are involved. so... one company can be equal to almost 4 calls. so... 17 companies is like... ahem. you get what i mean. so because of all these tasks, i felt ill yesterday!
so i'm still feeling kind of sick today. except that my sickness today has transformed into a feeling of heaviness in the heart; instead of teh stressful feeling that i had sensed teh day before. so i've been very moody. so moody that i can't be botehred with some ppl. i don't get why he can't see it. why would anyone wanna waste their breath talking to someone who has the least comments & replies to my words & qs? gosh. you certainly have hit a nerve in me. haha..
anyway because of this guy, i've been feeling very ugly for the past few wks. however, as i've said earlier, i'm much more absorbed into my work that i can't be bothered with him! so.. you know i looked into the mirror yesterday and felt that i looked nice (ahem i wasn't wearing makeup). and you know what i told myself? Well if he doesn't think that i am pretty enough for him, well TOOO BAD. i think i am looking my PRETTIEST today. BLEAH. i really said it out to myself in my office toilet (no one is around of cus). and i felt great!! ahhahaha! so if u ever feel down, remb: so long you look your BESt so far, you've won the competition. there is no need to care abt otehrs. bleah!!! (:
---------------------- enough of complains. anyway i've just wrote finish my timesheet for this month. well i will be earning almost $200 more than last mth as tehre's no holidays this mth.. but it is still very little! :/ but i don't feel unhappy. cus i know deep in my heart, this month is the FIRST time i am earning my money through PURE hard work & not slacking. when i was an admin asst, they gave me so little little work that i had nothing to do, and i ended up spending my working hours in boredom by slacking. it was so boring that i dozed off almost once a day! =X i am immensely guilty for that, but it was seriously boring. so i felt like i'm earning free money. But right now, this money seems more like a reality to me. haha.. in short, i am proud of myself. =D
ok back to what i actually wanna say. well i've extended my contract by 2 wks ( i told that dude & he's like can't be bothered; hmph). my official last day was actually yesterday- 24th feb. but now my last day will instead be on the 13th march- fri. actually i don't really mind staying longer (they wanted to extend my contract for anthr 3 mths) since i have found a great colleague who is now my good friend, & i really liek the environment & ppl. But with such a low salary, i think i really got to move on & i really wish to change my job scope. i am really thankful for the credit controller job but i'm now considering of mooving into the HR or Customer Svc sector.
the few concerns that i have for changing job is the folliwng: 1. i want to work in an MNC like my current company- Radio Holland Singapore 2. the colleagues & working environment may not be as great 3. i will miss Audrey who is now my good friend 4. teh distance!!! i have a company bus from Jurong East daily, which will take me to Tuas. so i only spend 93 cents a day to get to work. i don't want to splurge my salary on tpt. haha.. 5. i WANT to wear my own attire. I DON'T WANT to wear company uniform!!!
well i'll not be too surprised if my new job (if i manage to find one; HOHO) do not satisfy all my whimpsy criteria.. i am too petty; haha... but i just have to move on. I will be working a total of 3 months and 2 weeks in this company, & i need to be more adventurous don't I? (SHUCKS. an idiot guy just said HI to me on msn. i don't understand why why why i don't block him; i deleted him but i frgt to block him! idiot me). ok back to topic. hmm... yup so i gotta change job scope!! =>
OK. i got to divert my energy and typing to my resume le. i have not created my resume yet. i want to give my BEST shot & nothing less. i think first impression is crucial!
anyway.. pss. i think i may be more stress soon. cus i need to make a present for my dad & Audrey by next friday!! next fri is my last day of work. and i'll be celebrating my dad's b'day next wkend. the present that i have in mind is computer-based. i certainly need to refine my technique of editing certain stuff. (:
anyway, i'll be collaborating with Nicholas Yap from my sec. sch. i hope he can help me create a nice website. haha..

This is my 351th post in this blog.
well... Kelly is feeling kind of under the weather lately. Physically, she is having 2 ulcers- one on the inner left lining of the mouth. The other one is on the tip of her toungue which hurts most. it hurts me even when i speak as my toungue will need to touch my mouth at times.
next. i have been feeling pretty moody since Wed as i was offered this job and i had such high hopes in joining this consultancy job, but it turns out that i have to advise ppl when to or when not to sell stocks. yes; stock & shares. dam* retaded, frankly. how am i suppose to be able to close at least 3 deals to allow me to earn $900 per month? i'm sorry to disappoint, but i don't wanna starve. but i was like so excited to get this consultancy job? i even wore make-up and dressed up real nice (my opinion), for the interview at Eunos. i tied my hair up for the first time, with this new hairstyle. in case u don't get it, what's bothering me is that i need tyo take almost half a mth to go for this consultancy training, which is not paid. and i don't get paid for basic salary either. i only get cash if and only if i close a deal. so it makes the job pretty suck if i close no deal. :Z
so i went to work on Thursday feeling pretty moody and to make matters worst, one of my colleague is making me run errands throughout the entire factory. there is like a total of almost 10 departments in this entire factory, and i am scuttling over to half of them, looking for ppl and files. :/ and i climbed UP the staircase like.. NINE times that day? that makes me visit the stairs a total of 18 times since i need to climb down, if i had climbed up isn't it? :|
so i've been feeling much more stress at work startintg this week, which actually makes me enjoy it better actually. work is much more meaningful these days. i no longe feel sleepy at work; only drainned out or pissed, which makes work feel more of a reality. haha.. anyway, my past 2 mths of work was an extremly dull one. anyone will doze off. hehe.. =D
on friday i gave someone a suprise. i am glad i made the latter happy. and i must remind myself that i gave myself this promise: NO expectations was made to the person, when that person accepted it. The acceptance was just a mere one that cannot be inferred to mean anything at all.
anyway, i feel quite useless recently too. like what's the purpose of me if i can't help my best friend's biggest obstacle in her life? i just hope i can help her find a light to some path. yeap. just cheer up, my friend.
and to make myself feel my down, my dad coincidentally brought me and my bro to suntec city. and........... there's teh NTU talk at the Suntec Convention Centre today. so...i didnt feel liek going but since i am in the area, why not just go? so i went there, got some brochures and left. i looked through it, and realised that aside from Biology, i am keen in Communication Studies and Pyschology. and upon reading further, i read a comment saying that in order to be considered for Communication Studies application, u must get least a B for GP. what rubbish. fine. it's a language-based course but i was disappointed and thus irritated. then i look at pyschology and remembered what my seniors said abt how tough it is to enter that course. then i started feeling demoralised.
so let me jst warn u what i think. i keep thinking that the day i collect my A level results will be the worst day fo my life, and i just feel like going Clarke Quay on that night after collecting my results, and drink with my friend till i drop dead. HAHA. this sounds very retaded now then i type it out. but i hope u can now feel the severity of my situation? well of course i hope fo rthe best of my results. but my 2 years in JC has been horrifying expereince and frankly, i have never seen a grade C or better in my 2 years of studies i think. ya it is that BAD. so u can't blame me for being so pessimistic abt my results.
anyway, as for the sucky consultancy job i mentioned earlier in the blog entry, i was invited to go for training every weekends- including sunday, from 11-5PM. i was supposed to go today- sat, but i skipped. perhaps i'll go tmr- 14th feb. i'll see this more of an enriching and socialising event than a job training. i'm serious about that. i'll just try to mingle with teh crowd for teh thrill of it. =D
anyway, there's this site which made me happy today. try this out: http://www.jango.com you have to key in a song of ur choice, and it will automatically help u find similar songs or artist that you may like too. (: but don't expect it to be so updated.
signing off, kelly. p.s. i surfed the net since 4PM today.and it's 12.30 am. my eyes are sore.
and pss. Joel is so obviously attached already. i was like irritated. not that i want to be with him *BIG scoffs*. but how can he.. get over everything so FAST? **strangle his neck** i know it's already 2 years, but i think he is so desparate. *hmph*

AHEM. i know i post it today- 10th feb. but this entry was typed a long time ago.. this entry is about my CNY week. hope u can enjoy the long read. haha.. but there are pics! lalala.. (:
Hohohohoho.. I am here again!! Lalala.. it’s a Thursday of the first week of the Chinese New Year! I had a very good one! and yes. I am bak to work today! On the 4th day of the new year. *grins- a BIG one* hmm.. where should I start? I think I shall speak from the bottom-up.
WEDNESDAY On the 3rd day of the new year, I went back to my dearest alma-mata….. NO. not Innova JC *scoff*. But instead, I went back to Tanglin Sec!! I miss the sch and the teachers and the CCA so much laa!! *jump jump* I wore a splendid (in my opinion lol) white dress and a bit of makeup there as I had intended to go for visiting after that (actually that’s just my excuse for wearing makeup. Hhaha).
I have not visited tanglin since march last year I think. I did not even attended the teacher’s day celeb! I felt ashamed, and I did not go back even during the end-of-yr hols’ last year. That may be fine to others but not for me. I am not my usual Kelly if I don’t come back regularly, considering how frequently I came back 2 years back. I saw mrs Koh, Mrs lee and I had a really good chat with them! And mrs koh said she couldn’t recognize me and kept saying that I look very different. I guess it’s not only that it’s been a long time since I’ve last seen them that makes them feel that I look different, but it’s also due to the fact that I had changed my hairstyle.
And of cus I have not forgotten that best teacher that I have ever had in my life so far- Mrs Olivia Jacob. I have not seen her face for an even much longer period of time; more than a year for when I come back, she is sometimes not around. Even though she only attends sch only on Monday; Wednesday and Thursday, her presence is certainly still felt in this sch as I can hear ppl mentioning her name. I was initially unable to find her. so I decided to head for her classroom! And I saw her teaching her sec 4 students bio! I slowly walked past her classroom door and stood at her front door with my head popped in but she was so absorbed in teaching her students that she did not realize that there is someone looking into her classroom for almost a minute. Then I decided to walk past her classroom again. She was talking talking talking and the moment she saw me through the classroom windows, she continued and say “Kelly can teach you this!” and she smiled brightly at me.
Well I am very glad and surprise that she only had to take one look at me, to know that it’s me! And she diddn’t had to pause to recall my name. =D and I noticed that I still have the magnet that I had given her at the end of my sec 2, stuck on her books closet. (: I had a short yet marvelous chat with her. she asked which course I intend to take in the Uni and when I said Biology, she was like so happy? Since she was my Biology teacher and I had once told her that she had inspired me to take a liking in the subject.. :) and lastly, I managed to get her mobile number! As I had lost my hp, my contacts also went missing. And mrs Jacob and Mrs Lee are 2 teachers whom most students do not have their hp number. So I was unable to obtain their number unless I am to ask them personally. So yippee!! I have MJ number once more. (:
Following that, I went to visit the band. And I am pleasantly surprise to realize that a lot of the band members still know me even though I graduated 3 years ago, and my sec 1 babies when I was a sec 4, are now sec 4! Wow. Isn’t it amazing how time flies? I am happy that most of them are now playing like sec 4s! phew. But my memory of the names of the band members are fading. :[ I always have difficulty remembering people name. but most of them still remember my name la. I am immensely touched; esp when some juniors scream my name at that sight of me. Hahaha.. I’m glad people don’t hate me from being too harsh when I am teaching at times.
My playing skills is deteriorating in the sense that I can no longer sight-read a new piece as fast, and so are my fingers. And naturally, my lips get tire out quicker and I am slightly breathless. Don’t you think I sound like I am listing the signs of an old person? Haha.. well, sectionals was alright. I taught a sec 1 how to play the clarinet. It is much more tedious attempt as compared to a usual sec 1. she tends to forget her embouchure when she plays, which makes her squeak a lot throughout the 15 minutes. Well you know what, she reminds me of myself except that she is a much braver Kelly. Cus if I start squeaking non-stop for abt 5 minutes, I will eventually be too frightened to play out a single note. Haha.. and somehow, I will always remember that Chen Guang was the first senior who taught me how to play the Clarinet personally. I am grateful.
In short, I enjoyed myself in Tanglin Sec tremendously due to the teachers and the wonderful company I have in the band. They will be having their SYF in April. And according to the white-board in the band room, they have only 15 more band practices to go before SYF. Personally, I think they have TIME. Yes they still have it! C’mon they have about 2 more months? But sadly….. why commit so little band practices???? I think somehow somewhere something is flawed. Why have band practice only on Monday, Wednesday and certain Saturdays? And u know when I came back on Wed, what’s their band duration? 3-6.15pm. I was aghast. If you have so little band practices days, shouldn’t each practice be of a longer duration? During my time, we also had 3 practices a week except that it’s from 1-6pm if possible, and we spend the entire Saturday on band. I’m still in a state of disbelief that they only have such little time.
TUESDAY Second day of CNY. I visited my grandma house then as a family, we went to a very random place- Changi Airport! Hohoho. We just wanted to go there for the thrill of seeing the aeroplanes soar and land. Haha.. I think it is very cool to do it as a big family. (: following that, we ate at Sakae Sushi. I ate a tempura don set. My bro had a very cool meal. You can see it from the pics beneath.
WEDNESDAY On the first day of CNY, my family visited my grandma’s place. Then as a family, we head down to vivo city. My dad took some pics of my bro and i
TUESDAY Eve of CNY!! After the reunion dinner, my uncle and aunty, and my family head down to the ang-bao river –erm is that still the name of it?-. we took lots of beautiful scenery pics.
In short, my CNY week was an extremely memorable one this year- 2009. and it is my first time heading down to so many places as a family, together. –woots!-

Hello arlow. The post below was typed yesterday- Thursday but I diddn’t manage to blog it on the net. So today is Friday, and I am posting it! My day today is petty short la.
Wow. How time flies huh? I had actually typed a few paragraphs of words to blog about, on Monday, but i diddn’t manage to type enough of it to post! And today is already… Thursday! Can u believe it?? And it’s already 4pm now…. *GRINS*.this week is certainly a busier one for me at work. I was almost late 3 out of 4 times this week for the company bus. And then there is so much work to do at work! it is like just nice? There is rigour in the work that I do and yet it doesn’t suffocate me. So I love it! (:
Anyway I’ve just checked out my last day of work in this Radio Holland company. It is on the 24th Feb! this day marks the end of my 3-month contract here. I signed up for this contract 4 days after my A levels ended. My last paper was a Thursday and my first day of work was the coming Tuesday. I can’t believe that time flies so fast?! I’ve been enjoying myself for almost 3 months after my A levels! Wow.
My weekend last week was so full of shopping.. I tell you, I am so full of crap last week. on Friday- after typing my previous blog entry, I was supposed to be meeting Celestine for a dinner at Clarke Quay. However it turns out that there was a change in schedule and we were thus unable to go. So we ended up going to Jurong Point! I was initially pretty disappointed by the blow of this news.
I was however glad that I had placed my money to good use by spending it on clothes rather than on luxurious food! Ok anyway, I bought erm… 1 pinkish-red top/dress from a store, that is made of satin. Then Celestine and I went to a store which called themselves Vogue.. and I bought 4 dresses, 2 of which are navy-blue in colour. And of course, they are very much to my liking. One of the dress I bought was a beige-coloured bohemia dress which is very long; to my ankle. This is my first bohemia dress and I am excited for the day that I will be wearing it out.
The following day, Celestine and I met again, this time in Bugis Street! Well I bought a Spongebob-square pants tee shirt for my bro! it’s really cute- you can only see its sparkling pair of eyes and nothing else. (: it is my first time buying clothing for him so I am very happy to do so. :) I bought a white buttoned ‘jacket’- something that I have been eyeing at for a long time. I also bought a shawl at a very reasonable price of $7 instead of the usual $10-20.
Okay I felt very elated shopping so much for the the 2 consecutive days. However, I feel mightily guilty about it. Hai.. I felt so spendrift. Cus I spent slightly more than $200 on both days. I felt so bad that I diddn’t feel like wearing them? Which is retarded of myself since what is the point of shopping if you start feeling guilty after that? So.. I shall keep telling myself from now onwards that I need to spend with a much much tighter fist! And to be more selective on the clothes that I buy, so that I will buy less. But sometimes.. isn’t it so tempting to just buy what you adore so much? =/
My dad casually labeled me “spendrift” last night and I felt hurt cus he spoke my own thoughts about myself. Well I shall just make sure that I will not spend any more cash unnecessarily yea? I will try. =|
Okay let me try to sound more cheerful now. Lalala.. well on the brighter side, I LOVE my clothes wardrobe now! So many dresses la. Haha! The only problem is that it is currently like over-populated with clothes? I need to find a way to have an output for my clothes. As I had mentioned in my earlier post, I want to create a blog shop to sell my old clothes. But I keep thinking.. who the hell wants to buy them? I don’t feel like taking the effort to create a site that no one goes to, or no one wants to buy. So I am feeling very lazy. :/
---------- Anyway, I went to Mrs Koh house on Saturday for CNY visiting from 1-4.15pm. when I came, her students left. So she practically only had me to talk to for 3hrs 15 mins. I would have felt very weird for staying in her house for such a long duration if it was a few years back. But as she is one of the best teachers I have ever had so far and it was a very long time since we’ve last seen each other, there was quite a bit for us to chat about. Anyway she is Mrs Peggy Koh, my sec sch form teacher in sec 3 and 4. I met Celestine at Bugis afte visiting Mrs Koh.
On Sunday, Ying li ji-dan came to my house for Chinese New Year visiting! She is the only one who has come to my house for new year visiting so far. She tried a few of my clothes- esp those them I am very eager to give away since they no longer fit me. It was pretty fun having her in my house. We ate my house CNY goodies and we chat a lot. (:
So overall, my weekend- 30th Jan to 1st Feb was a very hype one.
--------------------------- As for this week, I did quite a fair bit of stuff after work. on Monday after work, I visited Ming Yan who was studying in Jurong lib. We talk quite a lot in the library; yes library. Then I look for books that are on Fashion and make-up and borrowed 3 of them. We had a nice dinner with each other and had our junkie-food eating after that in some benches. It was all very romantic for the both of us. ;) haha.. anyway, mingyan is a girl. Haha..
On Tuesday, I visited Ming Yan in her house at Clementi Central! It was very shiok eating her CNY goodies as she had many- and delicious ones too. She also made their own pineapple tarts which were pretty nice. (:
On Wednesday- yesterday, I visited YingLi at her house in AMK . although we diddn’t stay there for long, it was pretty nice too. Then I walk walk with her at AMK hub. It was quite interesting since I’ve never really looked at those clothing stores before.
And ya. Yingli confessed something to me yesterday. Haha.. nothing very surprising since she has been confirming my suspicion time after time. But I’m glad that we can now discuss about that particular topic openly openly openly. (:
Anyway, i have been wearing dresses and skirts for the entire week today except today. It feels so weird and it’s like suddenly so cool? Haha.. cus I’ve been feeling a bit too exposed recently. Yingli says I am too conscious and I think she is absolutely right. Being too conscious of myself is certainly one of my weakness. Haha.. she has spotted that right. So I wore a long sleeve top and jeans, and I feel that that is certainly the ol’ me! :]
Anyway, about that guy, I nothing to say. Better to have dead hopes than to be sorry. Enough said. (:
I’m only down to 2 weeks before I need to start looking for another job! I hope I won’t have to waste too much time searching for another job.
Anyway, I am still mad over the song Taylor Swift-lovestory. I am now trying to remember the lyrics to the song If I were a boy- Beyonce and Crush- David A..
Lastly, frankly speaking I think my new hairstyle makes me ugly. Even my dad says so. But thanks to Yingli, I am feeling more confident in this stash of hair now. Haha.. thanks ji-dan. Haha..
And ya. There is a growing anxiety inside me, about my A level results. I am trying hard to suppress that growing concern that I have, but it is not working. Bleah. I must enjoy myself more! What kind of holiday is this if I’m fretting over my results? I think I ought to treat myself with more care. (:
