Okay last night i just found out something amazing.
Alvin saw me commenting on Shi Xian's (my cousin who's younger than me by 2 years old, from my mum's side) photos.
When he called he ask how I know Shi Xian so I told him she's my cousin la!
And guess what?
Alvin said Shi Xian's his old neighbour when they stayed at AMK Block 419. And that would mean he's my grandma's neighbour. And that would mean he is THAT Wei Ren whom I heard my mum and aunt spoke about. He is THAT Wei Ren whom I know lives next door when I go to my grandma's place every week.

I was just fascinated by the fact that we have seen each other when we were young (although we can't really remember). And our parents still remember each other and their children's names.
That is so cool!
And now here we are, been colleagues and friends for months and didn't know that we knew each other when we were young until yesterday. But unfortunately my grandma and my uncle moved away to Hougang and he also moved to somewhere else in AMK subsequently that's why we did not see each other anymore.

It's amazing,
how small the world can be.




It was Tuesday, we had to stay back to work on our cluster decoration. I was standing on the table, supporting the gondola while my colleague Cheah Liang tied it to the ceiling. I was standing on Cheah Liang's desk, and when I moved my feet I knocked over his cup of coffee, and the coffee spilt onto the carpet, his chair and his Fred Perry bag.
I just panicked because it was a mess. And most importantly I felt sooo guilty I soiled his Fred Perry bag, and also partly because I know he is a bit calculative so I was afraid he would be angry.
And before I could react to take tissues to wipe the desk, Alvin was already behind me pulling out tissues to clean up the coffee. Even Selby who was beside me said 'Wah Alvin how come you run here so fast...' He even went to get a mop to clean up the coffee stain on the carpet.
I have to say that was all I needed when I was too stunned to do anything. I was feeling super guilty towards my colleague because I practically dirtied his whole working area and of course most importantly his expensive bag.
So while I was using tissues to clean up the chair, I was almost tearing. And Alvin saw me. He patted my head and asked me not to be silly. And it really made me feel better to have someone consoling me and helping me out when I was feeling so lousy.

I have to say I was really touched, to see him dash from his desk to where I am, before I myself even reacted to the whole situation.





It's not that I want to two-time, but I tried to do what I deemed fair but you simply refuses. I know it will never be fair to you, but you resort to threatening, to getting angry and to saying things like you are not going to let me be happy except accepting what things have become.
I understand why it is difficult, but what good will it do by behaving this way?
Things aren't going to get better, feelings are not going to return, relationship is not going to be salvaged.
I met up with a uni friend for just a movie and you got angry and said I cannot go out with him. When I ask why, you said 'Because you have a boyfriend'.
What bullshit is this? Because I have a boyfriend I cannot go out with a friend?
I'm only 22, I have the right to go out with who I want to. Yes I used to respect you, I won't go out with guys if you don't allow. But that does not mean I'm going to listen to you now.
I'm not even married with kids, and here you are stopping me from going out with friends.
Blame myself for being honest.

Dinner with my best friend is the only solace.






A 2 days 1 night trip at Batam View Resort, to get away from the city, to spend some quiet time in a resort and to enjoy a destressing massage.

It was a wonderful trip :)






You don't really say much, but whenever you say something sweet, it simply warms my heart.
And the daisies, I was really surprised.
Just because I said I don't like it when you don't say anything, just because tears streamed down my cheeks, you got the daisies.
And it's because I understood how embarassed you were that I find it so sweet. You took the daisies out from the bag, and invited stares from others, only to find me stupidly withdrew $1000 from the ATM and had to hide the flowers behind your back again and then to stand at the right angle so that I won't see the flowers behind your back when I deposited the money into the CDM.
And I was so surprised when you showed me the flowers I just exclaimed 'What is this?!' I really did not expect it, and I simply did not expect it to come from you. You are always so cool and you don't say mushy stuffs and you always irritate me on purpose.

But I think I know.

Installed new air con for the whole flat today. Whole flat in chaos, mummy took all my clothes out of the wardrobe and I had to pack them and decide which to throw and which to keep. No energy to do that now, shall wait till Wednesday, which is my off day. Can't wait for Wednesday to be here. And Friday and Sunday.
Work is no fun, it's not easy to communicate to customers on the phone when they can't see you and you can't see them. Sometimes customers just don't understand what you're saying, or you don't understand what they are saying. Especially Indians, my goodness, sometimes after speaking to them for 5 minutes, you still cannot figure out what they are saying/ asking. And when you don't sound confident, customers tend to doubt the answers you provided as well.
But of course, there is still so much to learn.

You can do it.
