回味

空气中的气味, 熟悉的罗厘引擎声, 老人的背景, 来来往往的人, 吹着的自然风。这些都让我回味和钩起好多的回意。空气的味道就让我回想起懒洋洋的童年下午。我会在我婆婆家, 睡着午觉, 起来时就会有每个傍晚电视播的 Wheel of Fortune, 然后就会有婆婆煮的晚餐, 包含了鱼, 菜, 肉和汤。熟悉的罗厘引擎声是在我常要入眠或是睡得快醒时都会常听到的。会听到这些是因为婆婆住在二楼,然后我所睡的地方不是客厅就是房间。而这两个地方都面对着超繁忙的马路,所以自然的就会听到这些我们常说的 '喳音'。 I want to go back to the past.

Resolutions??

Oh yeah, I have tonnes of resolutions for the coming year. That will be getting rid of my blardy fats, get my car license (I presume I shld be alittle debt free), find a new job that is able to tie in with my 6 months of attachment and travel again!! Ohhhhh, not very excited about the coming year because it simply means I am getting older, and parents are getting older too. Work hasnt been that bad recently.. Like I said earlier, all I need is time to learn. Of course, as and when I still do get "warnings" which I do find those warnings ridiculous. I find it no meaning at all. In any workplace, it is good to practice give and take. Never to always take from us but never give anything back. Its a very reality thingy. You demand something and take from us, we do expect a return, any form of return. So practising give and take is good and in a workplace, we shldnt be that calculative. It just gets on my nerves whenever people are calculative and are demanding. Anyways, the fr

Feeling weird

I had this weird feeling ever since I come back from Taiwan. I feel that my life has been missing something. Its hard to explain it using words or even by verbal. I just sense that prolly the thoughts I had in Taiwan will come true. After I came back, I also realise that the life here are so fast pace. A week of life in slow pace mode, all I see in Taiwan was enjoyment in their work and life. I realised I complain alot on how bad my jobs are previously (on all the jobs I am in). I mean, everyone do confirm 101% complained but what I saw in Taiwan was a different story. A 'welcome' from the staff in 7-11 is so uncommon in Singapore, whereas in Taiwan, it is so common and it seems like a must to do it. People are friendly and helpful, in fact, too friendly and I was taken aback. I love the weather, people, places, sights, things, food, shops, streets... Give me a year more, once I graduate, I will seriously take a month's break to enjoy life. Have been rushing too much in my

Taiwan trip!

Yeah, after a super long awaited 3 years, I went to a 7 days 6 nights trip to Taiwan, Taipei. Know a new friend there. The place is freaking awesome! Took alot of pictures but am damm lazy to load it up here. Went to Jiu Fen, Ye Liu, Tan Shui, Shilin, Ximending, Maokong Gondola, CKS Memorial Hall and some other nitty gritty places. Taiwan is really an awesome place to be in, and also stay in. People there are fantastic! They serve with great smile, Q to enter the train/MRT/highrail, are super friendly, have a relaxing life and not in rush, food are great to the max! I am actually tempted to go over to Taiwan and stay. Seriously, it is so damm different from Singapore. Holiday time always passes so fast. Last week of today, I was, or prolly I should say, I went Tan Shui and had the best time there. Beer, massage, food, shop, sight seeing... Fantastic! Will go back again next year with mum. Can see that she also wanna visit there. I was looking into the calender of this year's Dec bu

EOS 60D

Bought my DSLR!! And I have name it as Poldy.. Anyways, just to nag here alittle.. Quite a few things happened in this month. First is my extraction of tooth, and then I got shocked by someone who asked me or I would say, question me if I still wanna stay in my current workplace. Yeah I know its a duhhh question and it seems like I am be doubt on whether I can do my job properly or not. Thats why the only thing I am looking forward now is to graduate and become a social worker. Life is of course getting better. With better pay, lousy working hours, I do not get to meet up my friends that often. Few days ago I had a meet up and the session was not that good to me. I seriously dunno or prolly I should say, I am not in their path anymore.. I guess they were talking about getting pregnant or keeping fit now in preparation to get pregnant. Whereas me, still single, do feel left out. The topic is so different.. Thats why, I dont feel like attending weddings now because the topic w

Pair

Was surfing around in my facebook, looking at some profiles ( I wont name whose I have look at), I just realise everyone is in pairs. Am I starting to mind that I am not in a pair? Nope, I am seriously fine with been single for the rest of my life (because I have seen how and what my father did), but I do mind alot if the friends are able to give me time, not little time, but quality and quantity time. As I grow older, at the current age of 25, I know what are the wants I want to have in my life. Is it wrong or do I have a wrong/different mindset about sharing? To be frank, I hate sharing. Sharing of knowledge is of course ok. What I meant here is sharing of wealth, finance or anything that is related to money. Like for instance, just moments ago, my dad ask if I have $300, I did not even consider or think through or ask why do he need that amount, my reply to him was NO, I do not have $300. I hate the fact that I do not know where my money goes to if I were to give it to him. This is

Shutting myself

Yes, I feel like shutting myself up. Life is miserable where your so call best friends are having no time for you and even if they have, what we do are simple dinner. Cant I have friends that I can go out and play with, go travel together, have WHOLE DAY TO MYSELF and enjoy. I am so sick and tired of really meeting one by one. All got husband or boyfriends. I ask myself, where do I stand in my friend's life. Friend, is it just a touch and go? I envy those who have friends. I wonder HOW THE HELL they have time for others, not me. Worst, my current job are in shift basis. I am not childish because I SERIOUSLY do need friends to give me their time, and not just simple dinner. I need one whole day, a whole day relaxation.. At last, my long awaited holiday (since 2008) has been here. I am going to Taiwan this Sept with a poly friend. U see, thats how pathetic it is. Why cant I have bunch of friends to go overseas with? Its like stages of life. First stage, you rely on friends. Second

Better, hopefully..

Yeah, I wish it will turn better. Hopefully real better. At the current phase of my life, I have been questioned on when am I going to find a bf. Oh well, to be frank, I cant find one because I am not pretty, nor I know how to dress up myself. Like one of my colleague says, guys will always choose the ones who knows how to dress or doll themselves up. Erm, I just dont feel like dressing up or doll myself. Its so not me.. My parents really went to the extend of wanting to introduce me guys. I was questioned if I am straight or not.. I had a few friends who asked me if I am interested in girls. Seriously, I am not interested in anyone right now. The one I used to get interested in are attached. I had missed the chance already so... I didnt had a chance to blog about the camp I went in Outward Bound and NACLI. Anyway, to cut it short, my one week of camp WAS TOTALLY AWESOME! Know a few friends and they are totally a bunch of nice people. Misses them bits. I have also book my ticket in Sep

Truthfulness

Its impt for me that people are truthful to me, in any aspect. Be it truthfulness from a friend, in work by client, bossea pr colleague, family members. I believe I have shown clearly enough that I am a person who can accept all comments and I do take tgem seriously. I do not like the fact that the message was passed to other person and then to me. Its not the comments that makes me feel sad till the extend of really wanting to cry, but I feel like crying because I have really put in my true heart to treat everyone truthfully. I dont like to talk tactfully, esp to friends or working colleagues because I believe we are facing each other almost everyday and been truthful and frank to each other is impt. I had a lesson learnt. Prolly I should not be that frank. I just cant help it but to think for the past few months, the conversation that we had among ourselves, is it done truthfully or it was a test for me to let you guys see what kind of person I am. The first reaction was of course sh

Life has been great!

Life has never been so fantastic. I feel that it was right for me to go CC. Although I do feel that going back to the previous job will grant me more freedom and allow me to grow ever better in creativity and probably increase the list of related-industry peeps, but still, I am gladful to be here. Life is getting so well now that the colleagues in CC seems to be my friend rather than colleagues. Of course, age plays a part to it. Almost all are youngster (only a few are much more experienced) and it is so much more easier to communicate because we all have the same frequency, the way we talk are the same, the way we work too are also the same. The only bad thing about this job is, all of us are unable to go out and play together because it is a shift work. As for school wise, well, my exams just finished not long ago, probably few days ago. Now I only pray for a pass, nothing much. I just simply cant afford to fail again anymore. The month of May was such an exciting one. June will

Enjoying every minute, every seconds

I am enjoying every minute at work and every seconds spend there. The feeling is exactly what I used to have when I was working in RAS. Well, although my off days are alittle weird (weird in the sense that I have one off on weekday and one on weekend), I love the idea of having an off day during weekday because if you were to go out during weekdays, there is not many people in the street. Everything seems so peaceful and you can and are able to feel the breeze when walking along the street. Work has been excellent. So far there isnt much problem and I really enjoy helping those elderly in their enquiries. My morale is quite high now thus this is probably the reason why I am enjoying every moment. Of course, I do hope this feeling can continue. I am glad that I had a group of friends who were there to listen, to console, to laugh, to enjoy every moment with me. Thanks Joey, Xiao Wei and Anna. Exam is around the corner and this time round, I really must pass and get good grades in order

Welcome the new ones!

I left my old job and I welcome the new job with my big wide arm. I totally love the environment. I think environment in the workplace is damm impt because it can makes you feel motivated and makes you wanna go to work. I havent speak to my director yet but the people there has already make me feel so comfortable. Saw one lady in HQ today who looks totally like my another friend (Gean). I got soooo shocked to the max man! Its really really like as if they are photocopied of each other. Anyway, its really really.. they both just look alight to the max. Well, I can sense that I am willing to slave for the current job like what I did previously in my first job. This job is offiicially the second job that I found by myself. Hope my "sense" is correct and can mix and work ard well with them.

Decided

Decided to go PA. Well, when tender, colleague ask me where am I going, I told them that I need to focus on my studies because my grades are very bad now and I need time to revise and study. Nobody knows the actual reason, and of course, I hope they never know where I am going to. Its really a pain and drag to go to work now. I forgo my bonus because the other side cant wait. The amount was quite alot. $4664 is the amount of the bonus for this performance and growth variable this year. I am stupid to give up but then, friends has been telling me that bonus is never ending... Very true... Prolly I will enjoy more at the other side than working with people with fix mindset and certain working culture. They dont accept new ideas so... Yeah! I hope I make the right choice. Recently my body hasnt been in good shape. Not in terms of physically THAT SHAPE, but my body's immunity is getting from bad to worst. Though I am big, weighing 73kg, height of 176cm, and people always have this conc

To R or C?

Hahahah, its not RC but I am thinking to R or C? Anyways, I think I have got the answer already and hopefully it will not be a wrong move. Recently, I realised people tend to forget people easily, especially those who was once close with you. I am glad to have some friends who were supportive and willing to take time to listen to my nonsense. Had my dinner at KFC and I saw this family of 4, sharing 2 sets of rosta. Their 2 little sons were ard the age of 7 to 10. Their sharing of food kept me thinking about some unfortunate families in Singapore. The kids were super happy when the dad brought the set to them. The wife didnt take a bite, the father, been a man in mid 30s, had only half the burger and the rest were given to the sons. One of the son was also nice enough to really ask the mum, elder bro and father if they want the mashed potato that he is having. The mashed potato left only almost half portion. 3 of them said no to him and he eat it slowly. I dont wanna assume that they ar

Some good news of the year!

Well, lots of good news to share. Ok, basically there is only 2, of which, I will annouce one of them later. The other piece of good news is, I MANAGED TO SELL OFF THE SONY A200 and of course, selling it off also means that there is another new set coming. Yes!! Its the long awaited Canon 60D (long awaited for me lah). I am so blardy excited. Well, I dont think I will get it this month because of the other good news. I will have to wait till March to get 60D. I am sure gonna get it. Anyway, Happy Chinese New Year! I didnt do visiting at all. Was at home for the past 4 days of Chinese New Year. The only day that I went out was on Saturday, where I went over to Xiao Wei's house for steamboat dinner, and also like the first time reunion with Jasmine after 2 years? Well, I wont talk about the feelings I had with me when I was there. There are good and bad, but lets take it at a pinch of salt ok. Well, towards another issue, I guess the damage has been done and thus I seriously felt awk

Oh my Gosh!

Had a few great moments with JARZ. Hahahaha, you guys know who u are! LOL. Had crab feast and after that, I seriously fall sick. In fact, I am sick right now.. Having flu and cough, which gives me throat pain already and the phlegm is so thick and yellow. Well, my brother went and visit John's mother today. She actually told my brother that he died because of suicide. He swallowed near to 90 different pills and lock himself in the room, with his radio playing loudly and thus the mother did not know what happened in the room. Well, he choose to suicide because of relationship. Poor boy.. Guys and Girls, to those who reads my blog. There are always problems, and if there are problems, it will always have solutions to whatever problems it is. Take care peeps.

Sad

I was really super sad when I heard from my brother that John had died. He is my brother's friend since secondary school. My impression of him is strong because he is really the second, or perhaps I should say, that few who will address me as Jie Jie. And the way he address me is not the sake of doing so, but its like real Jie Jie. While typing this my tears has already well up. I find it a pity that at such a young age (19 years old), he died without really living a life. I heard from my brother that although he is the only child at home, his parents make him sleep in the toilet, his parents are always asking him for money, which was why there was a time where he wanted to suicide, my brother was there and decided to help him by lending him $100. Until now, he still havent return the money, nor will he be able to return the money because he is going to become ashes tomorrow. You know, its like... He is totally like a little brother to me. Sometimes when I talk to him, I would just

Some thoughts

While I was walking back from the station just now, some thoughts just came through my mind. I wanna say... The damage has done and the relationship between these both parties have been hurt, which can never be the same like the past again. Live with it, carry on with our lives and perhaps its time to really let go this relationship. No no no, I am not in any relationship, I think this is my thoughts after some stuff happened few months ago. Recently my dad starts to worried about me of not having a bf and the thoughts of not wanting to get married. He said:"Friends can never always be friends. Even your best friend will soon forget you because they have their own family. The day you die, you will die alone, and this makes me damm worried." Yeah yeah, this is true, I know... And now, he is in a team together with my mum, nagging abt my relationship life almost everyday. This makes me feel upset, not because of me going to be single, but my parents having such thoughts. What s

First day of 2011!!

Yeah, first day of Year 2011 is just a normal day for me. Slept till 3pm, wake up and had my brunch. Slacked at home till 5pm plus and out of a sudden, I think it was my sitting posture, I sprained my neck. I am still having problem turning to my right now. The pain in the neck near the shoulder is really irritating. I seriously dont know whats wrong with my body. I am not sure if my dislocation in the shoulder results me of having backache, especially on the right. Had my afternoon nap from 6pm plus till 8pm, went out and had dinner with family. Oh, and now thanks to SCV, we have got free channels to watch so at least it is not that boring. 2010 passed so fast.. Now is 2011. What is my resolution? Ok for once, I am seriously going to take my license and pass. 2nd is to slim down and cut my blardy hair with a new hairstyle. 3rd is to study well and pass. 4th is to change a new job. Okay, I have only got 4 resolution, not greedy right? Hahahahaha. Happy 2011!!
