It's been quite sometime since we had our last gathering. Feels so surreal that most of us are out of the student phase and we are no longer having any connection with Palm Gardens anymore. (Nat, did u also feel it or is it just me?)

Well, got the invite to Lysia's celebration. And it was quite a day with all that laughter and thanks to Tony for organising silly-but-fun games. Had quite a good laugh looking at how different people pose and how gullible Lysia is. Pictures are up in facebook. Somehow I can no longer rearrange them here. They must have changed something within this blogspot.

I like Hana's house. It's spacious and I must say it's ideal. I'm setting a target to have my own place in 3 years. I have been thinking about it for quite sometime and I'm getting more and more determined of it.

Well a week after being 24, still feels the same as before. Nothing has changed significantly. It was a normal day at work and then having a combined birthday party with Chloe at her house together with my housemates and my cousins. It was simple and fun. Elaine engaged Moses to do balloon art craft for Chloe's birthday in school and thereafter invited him over to join our dinner as well. At the end, even during our party, he was still making balloons. He made a SLR for me, an aeroplane for Samuel, which Uncle John ended up carrying and playing with it, then a butterfly fairy for Claudia, a little mermaid for Chloe and a gun for Nathan. Christine got a heart shaped balloons which we ended up teasing her. Faith has got her flower!

Then my folks came over after their trip to Phillipines together with my sis who came from Batam for the weekend. She cried like a baby when she had to go back. I guess it's really that boring and maybe cos she's just been too close to home. Had a pretty tiring weekend as a result but at least i got to celebrate my birthday with them.

Last week I've just decided to go to Europe with YJ! It's exciting yet scary! And a bit of heartache too, since I'm paying on my own!!! It's coming out from my own pocket. So have been trying to save up! The visa application is also complicated. They want many documents and proofs! But I will deal with that after end of this month. This coming 2 weeks is going to be busy weeks for me. Arrghh..

Well well, time to put some life into this blog. As much as I want to blog, I dont really want to just go on and on about daily work life. Work is as usual. I'm still enjoying it and leaerning more and more about it. Learning new things about all the plant processes, applications as well as how we can help the customer or our reps to secure orders. It's been interesting interacting with different people, talking to them, getting to know them and their styles. So far, it's been good. And like I said before, I truly feel blessed to have God's guidance to this phase in life.

Nowadays, Ong and I have found that bringing our own lunch to office, is not only cost-saving but it's one of our favourite things to do in the office. We get to do our own things at our own, not that we cant normally. Just that we are more free! We can have our lunch and then go for a walk at the park, or hang around for a while in McDonald's, or we can be watching movie while eating in. We are already thinking of watching drama serials during lunch. Maybe we can bring the "Little Nyonya" disc and start watching that. Hehe.

Recently I'm having thoughts of getting new laptop for personal use. But maybe I should not entertain that thoughts. I should go and save up for my lens first. I also got my trips to consider. Nah! I will just save it up first. It actually feels good to be able to pay for all my own expenses without relying on having to ask my parents for it. All the time spent to work for it and using my own hard earned money is really sweet. And of course a lot of thoughts and considerations have to be made before we committ to spend it.

Hmm.. I must save more more. I have so many things that I wanna get and of course, I'm saving up so that I can afford paying up the installments should I decide to buy a house. I've been thinking of it for a while now. I'm getting bored of paying rentals years after years when I can use the same amount to pay for a house installments instead. For now, car is not really at the must list yet, as I've more or less found that my place is really central. Somehow the reason of getting the car would just be to satisfy my want rather than my need. Then, I had the long distance home to consider for getting the car. Right now, it's hard to justify the need other than luxury and convenience, which is not always the case.

Bah... work time.. lunch soon! XD
