Prickly Conscience...NOT!

I was working night shift for the past 2 nights ==> cannot sleep for 2 nights.
then some bad things happened at work.
And I had to choose either to tell the truth and get people into trouble,
or hide it to protect the person.

I chose the former.
If truth be told, forgiveness will readily be bestowed on you.
If you choose to lie, your acts will not be tolerated.

Be responsible to face the consequences if you have faulted.
Have the courage to admit your mistakes.
Learn from your wrongs and do it right the next time.

I made some mistakes too, and I admitted it when I was asked to explain.
It was tough, but it's never easy to admit to anyone that you are wrong.
At least my conscience is clear.

And now I sleep with a peaceful mind.

:)

A beautiful day...

I had a wonderful day today.
Really wonderful.
It's been quite a while since I felt this way...

Woke up at 6am when it was drizzling lightly outside...
I love the smell of rain in the early morning...
The rain, together with the morning dew smells so sweet...
And when a droplet gently fell on me, it felt so cooling!
Perks me up immediately!

After work, I went to orchard with 2 other beauties.
They headed off to california fitness for a workout, while I went shopping (hehe, I know I'm lazy...but I am still recovering from flu ok!)

It was about 6.50pm, and I was walking alone along the stretch from HMV to Paragon...
The streets of orchard were as crowded as usual...

But there was a sense of serenity in the air...even with the bustling...
Maybe it was just me who felt this way...but it really felt great!

Just then, I looked up.
And I thought to myself..."wow"...
The leaves on the trees were swaying to the breeze...
And the yellow lightings shone as if they were the spotlights focusing on the beautifully choreographed dance...
With bells chiming on the other side of the street, it was like an orchestra playing for the dance!

It was a pretty sight to enjoy even if you are alone.

And I was reminded of the simple things in life we can enjoy but often took it for granted.

Like a gentle breeze.
A sweet-smelling drizzle.
And a sincere smile from a complete stranger.

It was a simply wonderful day that taught me to appreciate life's simplicity more often.

R - E - U - N - I - O - N part II

It began with an awkward "hi"...

Then came a lot of laughter from the PCA President.
The Vice President couldn't help and laughed too.
An awkward laugh, I would call it.
For it was rather weird after such a long time to see "each other" again.

For the benefit of those who didn't know the PCA members...
Let me introduce you to them...

My Best Buds of PCA :
Quanzhang(kz) = President
Chak Hwee(ch) = Secretary
Celia(piggy) = Treasurer
and yes,
me = Vice President.

Yup, those were the days when we were little and played silly games of such...

He looked uncomfortable.
Awkward maybe.
Afterall, things didn't exactly end off in a happy note.

We went for steamboat buffet, and I got piggy to lure kz away.
So that I can talk in private with him.
To make him feel more comfortable.
And at ease.
(and to let my dear pals who have been anticipating this "reunion" set their mind at ease...finally,after 4 long years.)

The night went on...
And we talked about everything under the sun.
Even our present relationships!
And everyone seems to be having fun.

There was nothing weird seeing him again as a friend after 4 years...
He's been the same.

The blur look he'll always put on
(I believe he's just blur actually after 4 years)
The self-confidence he'd portrayed
(He alwaz thinks he's handsome-looking, but...er... reality speaks for itself?!)
The "freezing" jokes he blurts...

All that made me ponder...
How did I fall head over heels with him back then???
What was the appeal???

I started to reminisce...

It was his muscular right forearm...
His broad shoulders...
That athelete frame he has...

It couldn't be ONLY these physical aspects.
I can't be that SHALLOW!!

Then we went to play pool.
The game that he taught me to play.
And made me a rather good player.

As we played on,
I suddenly recalled.
It was all the things he taught me
(actually, he taught me only games to play with him, but it made the relationship fun!)
that also made me fell in love with him.

We had so many common interests.
Things that I did not know,
He'll teach me.
Until I am good enough to become a challenger to him.

And that made me a very competent person back then.
Things that I'm not good in,
I'll learn, and I make sure I learnt it well.
Well enough to become a strong opponent for anyone.

I enjoyed the times when we were together.
For the things he taught me,
were not only games.

He left me to fend for myself most of the times when we were together.
And that made me tough.
So tough that I resent him.
For not being tougher than me to protect me.

He'll alwaz be the same old him.
but somehow, he looked shorter and smaller
as compared to before.
I wonder if he really did shrink,
or it was me who didn't see him as before.

The four of us parted on a joyful note.
And it seems like a next meeting would be soon.
I am anticipating for the next one...

Not because the feeling is still there.
But because,
I want the 4 of us to be FRIENDS.
Like before.

R - E - U - N - I - O - N

Tonite is the night...

The night of a long-awaited R-E-U-N-I-O-N.

R-E-U-N-I-O-N of a small association, known as the "PCA"
Private Candidate Association.

This association originated becos of 4 friends
who feared for their 'A' levels back then...
but were too lazy to concentrate on studying.

They were prepared to be the "private candidate", and hence, formed the club.

They each took up a role, President, Vice President, Secretary and Treasurer.


The Treasurer, was secretly in love
With the President
But nothing ever happened between them.

The Vice President, was also secretly in love
But with the Secretary.

Love blossomed between them for a couple of years...
And then it wilted...

And the association was disbanded
All because of the soured-relationship
Between the VP and Sect.

4 years later...

It was to be re-formed.
Would it?
Or would it not?

Tune in later,
To find out.

Flu bug ATTACK! (*some pampering required)

It's been awhile since I fell sick...

in fact... been a very long time already...

I woke up at 6.30am, feeling "groggy" (is there such a word??)
My throat was dry...and a little painful...and I thought it was because the fan was blowing at me directly thruout the nite...
Then I couldn't sleep...
Even when I know i only start work at 12.45pm and have to leave home at 11am.
And that rarely happens!!! I am a well-known "sleeper" and need at least 10 hrs of sleep to feel perked up in the day!!

i began to sneeze...repeatedly...for like 11 times consecutively ( I really counted! )
And so it begins..the mucus started to reproduce every single time after I blow my nose...
I went to work nevertheless...
and couldn't feel my nose for the afternoon...
it was like a dripping tap...
and I finished up all my tissues...
and used the poor quality toilet paper...
rub until my nose po pi....

then went for dinner with Bo Bo, and found out that my taste buds have malfunctioned...
Teppanyaki leh...sigh~ couldn't even taste anything except for the chilli...

Maybe it's good that i fall sick...then I won't feel like eating and can "jian fei" for awhile...
these few months really filling up my uniform...used to be baggy, now I am fitting into it!!

Must control diet...

After that came home...so sianzz~
Missed my dear dear...
When I am sick, he would care for me...then he would be very busy doing this and that to make sure I am comfortable...and listen to me whine...
pour hot drink, rub my cold fingers, tuck me into bed...sigh~

Missed getting sick...
and being cared for...
being pampered...

Even missed whining!!!
*sniff*

it is times like this which made me appreciate my dear dear more(hee, dun scold me okie?)
and will publish "him" on my blog...
Otherwise u probably would never be able to "hear" me talk about "him" (unless u ask me!)
*tsk tsk* :oP

AnGer-y!

NOTICE: Do not read on if you don't wanna hear me complaining...

I dun understand how they think...

It's juz infuriating.

They juz take things for granted.
Do they really not see it?

I pay for their accomodation, their food, their water, their electricity...
take care of their well-being...

But they just want to complain once they dun get what they want.
And worse, they BLAME me for not being able to PROVIDE what they want when I already provided so much!!!!!!

Just what is wrong with these people???
Do they think that the world whole is responsible for their actions and thus act so irresponsibly?
Why? Why? Why?

I dun understand how they think.
They really should be sent to a no-man-island and STAY there until they know how to value simple things in life...

Wrong already still wanna demand for this and that...
Dunno how they think...

Waste their parents' efforts in bringing them up and misuse my precious resources.

Terrible!!

The power of the little red dot...

It was a sad day for me yesterday...

Really really sad...

It evolved from a small red dot at the start of the day...then it got worse by noon...
by 2pm, I wanted to call in sick (I was working night duty) so that no one would see me...

I had a big pimple on my nose!! To make matters worse, it's on the tip of my little round nose!!! It could have been anywhere else(really, anywhere else!!), but why on the most alleviated (and thus most noticeable) part of my face??!!!

I asked myself why it happened...I was miserable...I felt like taking the day off so that I don't have to go out and let people scrutinise my nose as they spoke to me...I was agonised...I was struggling...

Deep down, I know I would not allow myself to avoid stepping out of house JUST because of a stoopid pimple.
But I felt so miserable...

Then the pimple got worse, it has decided to emerge from a red little dot in the morning to a bacteria-filled yellowish pus, sticking out in the middle of my once lovely Rudolf-like-nose...

I was horrified to see the extent of the damage done to my face... this " :o( " , is to portray what I meant...

tsk tsk...
What have I done to my nose...what have I done...

Eventually, after a lot of self-persuasion, I managed to take a little step out of my home...
Saw no one, then walk to the lift, secretly hoping that no one will be in the lift.
My prayers came true! No one in the lift!!
Chop chop...run into the lift and walk all the way to the bus stop pretending that there is nothing wrong with my nose.
Seems like no one was noticing me at the bus stop, board the bus, and took out a magazine to cover my face, pretending to read it.

It was horrible! Felt like a fugitive...finally reached workplace, and saw my collegues. They were really nice people to not comment on the pimple(thanks gals!). Or mayb, it was just not as obvious as I thought it was...

then I spoke to my "clients" in the course of my duty...and boom! the deadly truth sinks in...they stared at me strangely as I converse with them...and their gaze fell to my sad little pointed nose..all the time!!!(I swear i saw that!!). But i couldn't do anything...I just want to run away and hide in misery...

The night went on(I was working night shift) with my colleagues avoiding stares at my protruding pimple...
And I continued to wallow in self-pity...

Sad Sad Sad Sad Sad...

All because of a pimple.
:(

Facilitator?who?me????

Tsk tsk..

Today i completed my facilitation course at training school...think din learn a lot coz i was doodling all the time(oops...)

was just so tired and bored the whole day...

One thing i don't like about attending courses is that u are expected to know the topic and be able to apply it in your work after the course...
DUH!!!!! How is that possible??mayb I am no genius/scholar...and that's y..

My perspective is this: everyone learns thru different platform. Lectures may work well for some, while others juz prefer practicals(that happens to be my style!)!! hence, dun expect everyone to learn 100% of what you are teaching and apply it right after being taught!!!

The speaker was really a nice person though...even left us his email and phone no and told us to feel free to call him whenever we need any help - without charging us! How nice...

The participants were alright...all from different squads and all...
well...that's all for tonite coz my dear dear wants to use the com oreddy!!
and i'm gonna read other people's blog!!
hehehe

:)

the beginning...

I read a friend's blog few days back...and when I asked her, "why would u wanna put ur own feelings and thots up on the web where ANYONE can read???isn't it like showing them your diary??"

Then she told me, "it's a way to tell my friends how I am doing, and keeping in contact with them, so that they know how I am doing, and I know how they are when we can't met each other up frequently..."

With that, it convinced me completely to start my own blogging days...those who know me will probably think...hmm y suddenly I will publish my tots on blogs F-I-N-A-L-L-Y...it's becos of this friend's words that made me realise how far I have drifted away from my closest buddies back in my school days...

Not becos I dun have a blog, but because I have not make any attempts to try to keep in touch with you gals out there...and I alwaz say "I'm BUSY and TIRED and too lazy to make contact..."

so ashamed of myself...for being so lazy...and giving such a "I-DUN-CARE" attitude..

FORGIVE ME ok??I know you would...my dear friends...otherwise, you wouldn't continue reading right!!

I promise to keep updating this blog at least 3 times weekly to tell u how I am doing okies~~

For now, rest well and zzz tite!!!

PS: if you have a blog, do email me so that i can be updated about you as well!! :)
