My blog is dying! (or is it dead alrdy?)

Merry Xmas eve!
Today or rather yesterday nite is the first time I actually felt christmasty this yr~

All becos I went starbucks to get a mocha frappe after work. I wanted to get some help staying awake while I slogged away for proj... (all becos I procrastinated waaaayyyyy too much.. haha~)
The staff were all v enthu and high despite it being late in the nite~ With their friendly smiles and fantastic attempts at upselling, I could help but smile back and enjoy my delicious drink. *loves starbucks during xmas!* =) anyway... coffee makes me high~! (no need alcohol... haha!)

Read some fantastic books over these few weeks... I always enjoy the usual easy to read stuff that cheers me up (e.g. humour + romance fiction... i'm not really into reading heavy content stuff when i alrdy feel so drained from work and etc everyday~)... these books i picked up from the lib were perfect! they helped me pass time on the train rides to and fro work everyday~ I haven't been reading for soooo long... i almost forgot how much i enjoy reading... give me a nice book and i can spend 1 whole day reading it and feel contented~ =) + some chocolate and nice mocha = pure bliss...

on a side note... a customer asked me where i bot my ear stud the other day... she tot it was a real diamond cos it looked bling bling~ haha...so funny~ i where got $$ to get real diamond~ told her it was fake and she looked surprised~ nxt time can jus wear fake small bling bling diamond look-a-like n no one can tell e diff~ muahahah... (maybe except the jewellery shop ppl.. =P)

okioki~ time to get back to working! hopes i can finish asap k! =)

Merry Xmas Eve to all again!

Memories...

I know many others probably have much more photos than me...
but for someone who dun bring camera ard much, tat is definitely alot of photos...

anywayz....
the gd old times seem sooo far away now...
i miss my days in nus! (except for e fyp part~)
i miss being a student lo~~

wahhh... so fun... so happy... so carefree...

wang shi~ zhi neng hui wei~~~

i just have to grumble!

omg.. some ppl are just annoying!
if you dun trust me... dun ask me anything at all...
never even ask properly den anyhow point and give that annoying face!

*angry*

*prawwhhh!!*

never-ending world of work~

$$Cha-Ching!$$

tsk tsk.. needs to find a better way to manage my finances if i want to be a millionaire! >.<"

nowadays i dun update my blog anymore...

too busy...
too tired...
nothing exciting happening...
or juz plain lazy...

abit of everything i guess...

y e sudden urge to blog?

maybe it is just me being emo~
being the weirdo me again as usual...

but i cannot be e weirdo whenever i like anymore...
things are different when more ppl are involved...
cos everyone will have their own stand.. own thoughts... own feelings...
it will not be just all abt u anymore...

*sigh*
It's complicated u know~

Maybe i'm selfish by nature la...
Not suitable to live w other ppl...
shld just zibi one corner that kind...
and watch the world go by...

How i wish i'm really a sponge now like wat e U ppl say i am...
no brain... no feelings... no tots... no emo-ing...

I know i am whining...
but whatever lah!
it's my blog n i say what i wan n wat i like...
in here.. it's all abt me me me...
(maybe not.. but dun care la... nobody will probably read this anyway...)

totally randomsss n totally incoherent but who cares...

i've told him stuff about 18 months ago but i dun tink he remembers...

or maybe ppl juz expect u to change urself after a while...

or they juz forget...

wellz...
i dun really know...
*sigh*

n finally...
happy mid autumn festival to all~
let's hope my day will improve as it goes along...

Loads of stuff at home...
People should think about the consequences of their actions before they do anything!
*haiz~*


Loads of stuff at work w interviews n checklists n OJTs n projects n trainings n what have yous~
i wan a super brain!


*tired*


*looks forward to national day*


*precious off days come to me!*

work work work

i like to tell myself this: life is not all about work!!!

but nowadays it seems like my life just revolves ard work!
and it's just too bad tat i am not a workaholic... so i dun enjoy this lifestyle at all! boohooo~

6 day work week is killing me~
plus all e fri sessions n sat sessions n daily qns to research on...
yes.. i am whining!! =(

i know i shldn't be complaining...
i know my 6day work wk is peanuts compared to some workaholics who work almost 24/7...
i know i shld train myself to become super efficient n do something abt this schedule instead of whining away pathetically...

but seriously...
i have no idea how to change this situation i'm in now...
everyday is now a routine....
morning shift: wake up - work - home - rest for dinner - study and do qns - slp - next day repeats
afternoon shift: wake up - do qns - work - home - rest and shower - slp - next day repeats

i dun even have the energy to do anything else...
on my off days i juz wanna rot at home.. i dun even wanna do anything but i can't!
gotta catch up on mugging n doing all e countless no of qns...

i dun like having to mug n work at e same time...
it's er xin!!
wat happened to e work life balance thingy~~?
now it has become work balance only...
tsk tsk~

at least 8 more months of this routine life...
i need a break!
how i miss student life~ aizz~

2 faces to a coin.

Life is not always a bed of roses. Sounds cliche? But it's so so so true. Life has its ups and downs. The difference for different people is that some have more ups than others while the rest have more downs. Maybe life really is unfair. But sometimes I think it is how you look at it. For me, I think learning to be contented with what you have is the best way to gain happiness.

The reason I'm saying all this is that so many things have happened recently (both happy and unhappy):

-On my bday, I had a great time. LT gave me a sweet small cake at 00.00hr (YUMZ!), jrm gave me a bottle of mineral water at ard 01.00hr as a replacement for the eclair tat he wanted to get as a cake but failed to get, went out with LT to science centre in e morning till late, received loads of bday wishes from friends around me either by sms or email or facebook. Felt really touched that these ppl remembered! =) Thank u my dear frens! Thank u my dear LT!
***
-The nxt day I received news from frens that a fren's brother had passed away yesterday. I didn't know how to react to this piece of news. Cos this fren actually did sms a bday wish to me despite wat happened in his family. I can only send my condolences and hope that this fren is ok. (As u can see, I am really bad with words, esp at consoling others.)
***
-Very soon it was my grad trip to Welcome to Taiwan! A super fun-filled trip that was disasterous and exciting at e same time. I believe i will remember it for life! =) Will be blogging about it in detail in e following entry w loads of photos! Am rather sad that adez couldn't join us thou... =S Nvm, there's always next time! =)
***
-Just got home from dinner w LT and his family. Freaking unlucky or wat, LT lost his wallet. No idea how or where it disappeared to, but it just did. "Sway" with a capital 'S'. Cancelled all his cards, made a police report. Hope some kind soul with a heart of gold finds it and returns it to the police station and some nice police officer will call him soon to pick up his wallet with everything still intact and nothing lost. (Crosses my fingers for luck!) What a sian nite~

Yupz... so you see, these really make me wonder and think through about what I have and what's around me. Sometimes you get super sway, sometimes you get lucky. But most of the time, people remember the sway parts better. So they tend to think that they are sway people. Some of the rarer species of humans may appear to be happy-go-lucky, but deep inside, they may have had many bad experiences before but just chose to look at things in a different perspective, take things in their stride.

So like what adez love to say: "Life is short, but it is also long."
What's your perspective? =) I hope i will be able to zhi zu chang le!

It is time to update mi blog?

I'm now officially not a resident of KE hall after 4 yrs~

My evolving taste for drinks.

I used to love ice cold lemon tea~

Then it was milooooo~~
And milooo dinosaur~!!
Delicious chocolatey taste sweet like nobody's business~

who can forget the bubble tea craze!
used to have a few cups every week...
mango snow blend la.. green apple snow blend...zhen zhu nai cha...
anything with pearls man~!

There was also the time of a&w root beer float~
smooth creamy vanilla ice-cream paired with root beer~
the ultimate killer combi! *slurps*

Of course there was ultimate from cbtl!
best ice blend kopi + chocolate that i ever drank! =)=)=)
ten starssss! (depending on the diff outlets la.. some better than others.. i like it more bitter)

Influenced by dunno what~
I started to love coke...
(even thou i used to dislike gassssy drinks)
refreshing cooool taste~ *ahhhh~*

discouraged by many to not drink sooo much coke...
i started to turn to e healthier choice.. green tea~
cold or hot~ both equally good for health and taste.. =)

nowadays it's q chap-pa-lang~
tea, kopi, coke, miloooo~ all my loves~!!

*shucks~ i juz realised it's anything w caffeine...

... ...

i'm a caffeine addict... junkie...
=X
