working days and nights throughout continuously, sleepless nights.. need a good rest.. =x

18 June 2009 - 23rd Birthday

so touched by all the greetings, thanks all. Long time never celebrate birthday since 5 years ago. LOL. After work, went to celebrate with Poly friend, charlene at Swissotel's Swiss cafe. It's a wonderful buffet dinner, exotic foods, chocolate fondue and environment, reasonable price too! =) Lol..

19 June 2009 - work

working hard on my file =p

20 June 2009 - Poly Class Gathering

Long time didn't meet up with my poly classmates, had a wonderful dinner and catch-up session @ Manthana Fish Market @ The Central Mall.

21 June 2009 - TTSH friend Gathering

it's been quite time since last gathering with them, met up with Qing Yuan, Joyce, Shereen, Brenda.. it's been an enjoyable time catching-up with them.

meet Irene, a very caring girl! haha =)

all the best in your career

I looking forward to my Chiang Mai trip on 16 July 2009!!

20 more days! no one going with me, sad =[

2009-05-28T10:00:00.034+08:00

hmm.. time flies so fast @ work, one moment i see daylight, and the other moment it's night time, but still in office working! haha. career as an investigation officer is great, esp at this department. I likes my job!

just came back from my 12 days trip to Hanoi (vietnam) last month, I'm had planned another 8 days trip to Chiang Mai (thailand) in July. haha, dun ask me why..cos I love traveling.. I had purchased my air tickets to Chiang Mai at a price of S$140/- only!!!

looks like i flying quite often.. LOL.. Now in the process of planning my dec trip.

Now must plan my directions in Chiang Mai, cos nobody going to assist me, I'm going alone, just like the 12 days trip to veitnam. One thing I hate is waiting alone aimlessly at airport to board the plane.. Thanks Juile for sending me at Changi Airport T1 that day.

photos of my trip in Vietnam (23/03/09 - 03/04/09 ) :

2009-03-11T12:49:00.003+08:00

it's has been a fun and enjoyable ride throughout the night, travelled and drove around entire singapore, visited so many places and enjoying sea breeze, and also had our early 2am breakfast at Changi Airport!

haha =)

looking forward next time we go spinning around singapore again

2009-03-02T11:20:00.003+08:00

hmm.. went to catch the movie " My Bloody Valentine", a horror and heart-beating movie.

scared us till pale, haha

2008-12-24T15:00:00.002+08:00

done so much yet this is the outcome. I got nothing to comment on anymore

2008-11-16T09:00:00.004+08:00

Bought my iphone and Sonyericsson Xperia X1 window-mobile phone.

haha. both phones are so complicated, i also don't know how to use and navigate.

hmm.. happened to traveling through Orchard Rd, it was such a spectacular christmas atmosphere. The entire Rd was lighted up with shiny and tangling decorations of Chrsitmas items on the roadside "Christmas trees".. Paragon has the most outstanding of all, beautifully decorated and huge X'mas tree. haha.

Then at Chinatown, there are stalls selling CNY items already. so fast.

2008-11-04T13:55:00.005+08:00

finally my 10 days of long leave will ends today. dunno it's good or not?

Granted with long vacation leave, i complained of bored, then asked to work, i dread of attending to ridiculous complainants' message. haiz.. Just what am i thinking? simpily don't know why.

good times passes so quickly and how i wish i could pause it. yet unhappy times passes so slowly and sorrowful. It's been such a difficult and tedious cycle.

shouldn't let negative thinking affects and impact on my life. but so many things are weighing heavily inside my mind and heart.. and it's gonna sinking soon.

my recent relax trip to cameron highlands is not relaxing at all, my mind is still in singapore.

I'm feeling extremely lost and confused and tired.

Seriously, I need an answer to this dilemma. my head is spinning and confused.

2008-11-02T10:43:00.012+08:00

so long never been so free and easy ever since NS enlistment, though now I had signed-on. yesterday evening went dining with friend at Wheelock Place's "Sun with Moon", a nice and exotic jap restaurant. then we went to watch movie (COFFIN) @Cineleisure It's indeed a heart-beating horror movie, everyone was so concentrated till got shocked by sudden appearance of the "ghost" in the movie. haha.

after which we went to somewhere to eat Claypot "padi-frog" with porridge. haha, it's my first time eating the dish, at first was hestitating.., but decided to taste it after her recommendations. hmm.. the meat tastes quite good, very smooth & spicy with the sauce and the frog meat taste like fish meat.

Thanks, it's been a fun day

somehow feel tempted of visiting Hong Kong, as was telling and describling all her fun holidays trip at Hong Kong. haha. shall add hong kong to my 2009 destinations travel list.

year 2009 destinations travel list:

1. Hanoi, vietnam

2. Taipei, taiwan

3. Hong Kong, china

4. Tokyo, japan

2008-10-31T07:45:00.005+08:00

YUP, i'm back from my self-exploration retreat in cameron highlands, freezing weather there..

Cameron highlands had changed so much compared to the previous trip i had visited 2 years ago. even Starbucks Coffee company find it's way to cameron highlands where you can see mostly tea plantations and strawberries farms.

this time, instead of taking direct night coach from singapore to there, i do the other way round. I went to Bugis and took a bus which bring me to Johor bus terminal, from Johor , i purchased a coach ticket to KL, and at KL, I purchased another ticket that will bring me to Cameron Highlands.. Left my house at 7am and reached Cameron highlands at 9pm!! Entire day is spent on travelling in coach.. least it's 50% cost effective than taking direct coach from Singapore to Cameron Highlands.

Again i hate the unavoidable journey when the coach is travelling up the hills. cos the bus will be travelling up to the 2,ooom++ high hill, winding like a snake of the road, turning every corners. and it took 2 hrs of turning from hill bottom before reaching the first town of the highlands top.

stayed two days at there, weather was extremely freezing cold, esp during morning and night. bought back many types of strawberries, teas and various types of "cameron-styled" dried fruits.

2008-10-27T21:11:00.004+08:00

it's tmr 28-31 october, will be leaving to cameron highlands for a relaxful retreat. so many things happened in a year, so tired, it's time to take a short rest. Going to immerse myself in the extensive tea plantations and exotic strawberries farms at the cool-mint freezing 14 degree celsius. start a refreshing life for work, a newly started career.

going to buy many strawberries back!!

2008-10-03T22:32:00.014+08:00

finally the long-winded 12 weeks NPC course concluded on last tuesday. Will be reporting for official duties on next monday, hence from wednesday to sunday is my off days.. 5 off days till i dunno know how to spend. muslim friends are celebrating their new year, the rest all busy with their things, yet i'm stoning at home for nothing.

yet I got so many things in my agenda & it is circulating in my mind day and night.. wat should i do?? pls direct and advise me.. I need someone to confide in.

2008-08-23T14:23:00.009+08:00

dunno it's considered unlucky or misfortunate, just when i reached home from Polyclinic for consistant bad headache.

somehow i MISSED A STEP, BANGED onto the TV set, got a severe cut on my left fore-head. got stunned by the sharp pain..

despite trying to stop the bleeding, blood was still flowing down my eyebrow to face.. can really sense the smell of blood. haha. Painful at first, but slowly numbed by the dizziness..

wat a bad day it is to start with! with bitter headache and a swollen "Ba-Lu-Ku"

The group were supposing to enjoy themselves at a neighbouring island, however one of them returned to s'pore in a "WOODEN BED" and forever in deep sleep.

The bereaved kins tears rolled as the casket personnels carry "it" out from the boat.

It's was such a disheartening scene last night while on task at T.Merah Ferry Terminal.

This scene just can't disappear from my mind throughout my entire night shift at the ferry terminal.

Life is so fragile, once you miss the chance, there's hardly another second chance. treasure, cherish the life and time.

2008-05-29T17:51:00.013+08:00

2008-02-29T23:30:00.003+08:00

I went to SGH "A&E". being suspected of dengue, i was told to do a blood test, my first blood test ever in my life. haha. results show that it was virus infection which caused the high fever and flu..

anyway was given two days of MC to rest at home till monday. hehe. =)

2008-02-07T08:56:00.000+08:00

if only i had the time to travel, I'll buy a flight ticket to Siem Reap in Cambodia or Chiang mai for a retreat. just like how i had travelled alone in vietnam and malaysia previously.

living an unhappy and stupid life.

this year CNY is even more boring.

so many unhappiness, and things in NS. no one i can actually talk to.

life is like a stage, everyone is living with their masks.

I shall preserve in silent.

I'm going to go against the odds, determine to do the things I decided.

2008-02-06T21:52:00.000+08:00

it has been flashing frequently in my mind silently, the working days at Hang Ten, TTSH. I miss those days. I miss my friends.. the group sushi dinner all of us had, the laughter, eating at mos burger, steamboat, BBQ.. as well as the "seafood platter"

whenever i read the cards they wrote to me, i ..

this year new year is nothing much.. just like a normal day to me.. also dunno what to do..no programmes, no activities. dunno what can i do during this week of holidays.. friends all celebrating, and no shopping centres are open..

i wan to go Sentosa to see the Spring flower landscape / festive....

2008-02-02T14:31:00.000+08:00

a super virus has invaded Delta Coy trainees.. 400 plus of us / almost entire coy had been down with cough, flu and sore throat for the last 3 weeks despite the medication from camp doctor, which seems doesn't help at all.

everyone is coughing and coughing around the entire academy, be it during training, drills, tutorial lessons or sleeping in the barracks. so many went to seek medication from Camp Medical doctor, haiz, the medicine is just not strong enough to kill the virus.

improper meals and food as well as insufficient rest also contributes and resulted to the mass outbreak of the super virus that infects almost the entire coy of 500 people. all just keep coughing non-stop.

it's almost been two months at Police academy, however just can't seems to adapt well. civilian life keep refreshing in my mind whenever i close my eyes during my rest. I miss the days as a civilian..now with another identity.. must follow the instructions given, nothing cannot goes wrong.. haizz. follow the law, and procedures.

yesterday had my first live firing test. hmm.. a new experience. the extremely loud "Bang!!" and fire sparks make each individual of us nervous and shocked. Each of us was given 35 round of bullets and aim at the target to shoot. managed to pass my first shooting test, 26 out of the 35 bullets hit the target. whereas the remaining 9 bullets dunno fly to where.. haha.

2008-01-27T17:47:00.000+08:00

haiz.. again got confined on last friday cos i failed my IPPT last week. sleep in my barracks alone as the rest of my bunk mates get to book-out. haiz.. got injuried during training and the camp doctor only prescrible pain killers.

last week went for the sign-on interview at Cantoment Complex, everything was going fine. Looking forward to the Second round of interview.

Spring is round the corner, quite happy cos we got a ong festive holidays. =)

2008-01-20T08:24:00.000+08:00

a typical sunday morning, uncertain of what to do for today.. no programmes, no activities, no need to book-in tonight. just feeling lost dunno what to do..

without any hesitation nor any thinking, now i shall go to Pulua Ubin to cycle. To cycle away all my unhappiness, saddness, whatever it is.

2008-01-19T11:15:00.000+08:00

half of the training journey in Academy had passed, it's been a long way since the enlistment day. another 8 weeks more of trainings if i not decided to sign-on and another 20 more weeks of trainings if i decided to sign-on. what i shall do???

everyday in the academy is slow, every movement is restricted within the squad.

we, as trainees, are just like the plants in the seabed, a food source for the marine creatures. The small fishes eat the plants and the big fish eat the small fish, and this is how it works in the Force. The higher rank will have the higher authority, and trainees are completely just the lowest and rank-less person. fairness is to only a certain extend here...

every night look into the dark sky, though it's dark, shining in the sky are the numerous of blinking stars and the bright moon, and i'll be wondering across the sky with all my doubts and unhappiness.. miss the working days at Hang Ten and TTSH, where i can speak to some of you comfortably rather than using mobile phone to call and sms..

though get to book-out on weekends, time has been a constraint too, traveling time between academy and home took few hours, little time to catch up with friends..

life is so confined.. haizz..

anyway, received news from the HQ manpower side, was being shortlisted for interview for Sign-On with the Force.. no matter what the final results..whether able to join the special operation command division?? let it be..

2008-01-13T09:06:00.000+08:00

haiz.. a long week at the academy..

failed my IPPT: standing broad jump and pull-up..

got confined on friday and only get to book-out on saturday late morning 11am++ after all the remedial training.. =( sad..

Chinese New Year is coming and it's near. looking forward it.. a long week holidays. =)

after some serious thought and consideration, i had decided to pick up a part time degree course in Business Management after my pass-out parade in April 2008. cos will have time in the evening if posted to land divisions.

at the same time, was also considering to sign-on in the Force and study part time. cos as usual will have time in the evening if posted to land divisions. It'll be a five years contract including of my two years NS.

need someone / anyone to give me some advice on this two matters i planning on- acadamic and career

2008-01-05T18:55:00.000+08:00

Finally 4 weeks of Physical Training course had passed in Home Team Academy. Ahead is another 13 weeks of Basic Police Training before enjoying two weeks block leave and then looking forward being posted to various divisions.

Next week onwards will be starting full schedule of BPT. study the general laws, police practices etc, weapons handling and exams too, however there's still IPPT too and those failed will book-out on saturday instead friday for remedial training. haiz... hope i can pass my IPPT!!

Today is Saturday, so bored at home... thinking of asking a friend to go out..but not sure to ask or not to ask??

In the end i kept myself entire day at home. haiz..

2007-12-31T20:09:00.000+08:00

2007-12-24T17:12:00.000+08:00

just book-in to the academy yesterday night & today noon book-out, then tmr night book-in again. haha, coming in and out of the academy like a resort.

each time come out from the academy, i was so happy, and each time book-in, the feeling was low and sad..cos life is being controlled in there with all the various tedious training and drills. anyway..getting used to it afterall it'll be the lifestyle in the academy for the remaining 3 months plus before getting my posting to various unit. looking forward towards Chinese New Year, a long holidays. hee =)

Today is Christmas Eve.. though today got an early book-out at 130pm.. went home.. now at home wondering where to go..

got a long rest from 19 dec till 23 dec before returning back to the academy then book out again on 24 dec, christmas eve and book-in again on 25 Dec..

Life in Home Team Academy had made me realised important facts of life:

hmm.. nowadays raining season, all pls take care.. =)

Looking forward to meet all of you soon.

2007-12-09T11:09:00.001+08:00

S$35 for a round trip ticket was indeed reasonable. haha. it was a fun and comfortable short journey to there.. only 45 mins!

now i'm feeling completely tired..

there's left 33 more days before i enlisted into Police Academy for my national service.

haha. hope to keep in touch with all of you..

2007-11-04T21:28:00.000+08:00

hmm..

Quite sad to see people leaving after one another. Yesterday was Pamela's last working day @ TTSH. It has been a fun working them, and i had never regret knowing them. It's been wonderful thing in the world to know the group of them and also the pharmacists as well! haha

in another 37 days, i'll be enlisted to the Police Academy, and soon it'll will my turn leaving....

hope to see all of you at the BBQ party on 30 Nov 2007

2007-10-20T08:59:00.000+08:00

It was another fun and enjoyable steamboat dinner, organised by Pamela, the group of us from OP: Kelly, Pamela, Joyce Cheng, jOyce Tan, Roy, Grace, Qing Yuan, Jeremy, Suzanna, Cheryl, Jesslin, Daryl and me went to Bugis to have the porridge steamboat. it was indeed nice =)

The porridge was used as the base instead of soup, an unusual way of eating steamboat.

haha. we thrown all sorts of foods : seafood, meat, eggs, vegetables into the clay pot of porridge.

the taste was not bad, quite nice. haha. we had all the laughter and fun throughout the dinner.

after which as usual, we had a photo taking sessions, haha.

2007-10-13T07:37:00.000+08:00

Yesterday was a remembrance day, it was Sotong(jOyce) and Octopus(Cheryl)'s last working day at TTSH and soon will be my turn.. haha. shall extend contract or not = depends. perhaps or perhaps not..

Thanks jOyce and Cheryl for the nice card and chocolates. I felt so touched by both of you.. =)

The group of us : jOyce, Cheryl. kelly, Jeremy, Suzanna, Jesslin,, Erny, KC, and me went to have Sushi dinner Buffet at UOB centre.

It was an enjoyful, wonderful and joyful dinner. Laughter was across the sushi conveyer belt. haha. we still can't forget about work, joking of all the things we can think of and taking photos along the way to City Hall.

Knowing them was a wonderful thing in life, they had lighted up the working life. and somehow the names of the marine life came about and became SeaFood Platter . haha! how i wish time would pause during the happy and remembrance moments yesterday(s).. really cannot image what the atmosphere would be like next week without Sotong and Octopus. they are the pillars and the founders of the OP Seafood Platter. =)

all the best for your studies at NYP and NP. haha. will see of you soon.

yup, i had also tendered my resignation with one month notice at Hang Ten on last thursday. been working there for 3 years and 4 months. throughout the three years plus, had learnt alot from the company, get to see things in different views. attended the trainings, meetings, running the outlet, monthly stock take and etc.. thanks to the management team whom always cares & approve my requests and nice knowing all of you too..

2007-10-07T08:44:00.000+08:00

It was an enjoyable friday evening after a tiring long week.

last friday, after work went to Junction 8 Swensons with the "Seafood Platter": jOyce, Pamela, Cheryl, Rina, Jeremmy and me. haha.

all of us had an enjoyable dinner and chatting too.

at the same day, received news from my sister that i been enlisted for NS on 11 Dec 2007. Most wonderful good news : I was enlisted into the Police Academy at main land, instead of going Pulua Tekong. haha =) cheers!!

yup yup, very happy.

hmm.. will be organising another BBQ on Dec before going in for my NS.

shall keep all of you informed for more details after i had arranged the venue and date.

looking forward to see all of you!

Take care~

2007-10-03T21:27:00.000+08:00

This week has been a tedious though working A3 shift ( 1045-1845). somehow dunno why cannot sleep well in the night.

been working throughout, running about here and there.

brain just can't stop to take a break, many things are flashing through in and in of my thought.

my recently holidays retreat did not help in reducing my stress.

well i may seen to be independence, however does anyone know how it feel to go alone there?

Ho Chi Ming City - vietnam, also a place strange to me, nobody there to assist me, somebody there might harm me too, of all the all:: fortunately i came back safe and sound. haha

how does it feel while waiting for the flight alone? other passengers are at least with somebody whereas me with nobody waiting aimlessly for my flight there..

After all, still glad that there's still a handful of people out here whom :

hear you, reach out to you, care and concern, we had laughter in the air.

and of cos the "SeaFood Platter of OP @TTSH", i'll always remember all of you. haha =) cheers!

sotong..

octopus..

eel..

crab..

seahorse..

squid..

puffer fish?

and etc..

2007-09-29T11:35:00.000+08:00

last Friday of the month, promotions seems to be on-going everywhere.

yesterday after work went to StarBucks @ TTSH with a group of colleagues. why? cos 50% for staff, only LAST FRIDAY of the MONTH.. haha.

after ordering, left behind only Joyce, Marie, Cheryl and me whom we sat at there and chit chat till every min is laughter. 3 hours of complete laughter and joyfulness. time flies fast.

everyone is leaving soon after their contract ends..

2007-09-25T22:30:00.000+08:00

Today is somehow a weird day.. at work, morning was so quiet but after lunch, the printer was flowing with labels non-stop. so busy that involves all the pharmacists doing packing as well. haha.

A boring evening for me, Today was mid-autumn / mooncake festival, went down to chinatown after my work. walked the street alone.. cos all my friends are involved in their things, whereas me here so lonely, seeing the people enjoying their day happily taking photos and walking with lanterns. dun ask why am i doing there, perhaps join in the festive atmosphere????

after that walked down to Clark Quay, went to The Central Mall.. wander around the mall, walked and walked, passed MOS, bars, etc.... finally decided to walked to City Hall - take train home. haiz... can't describle how boring and lonely it is the feeling.

2007-09-19T20:12:00.000+08:00

came back from my holidays retreat last wednesday, so fast one week had passed.

Cu Chi Tunnel

Le Le Hotel - Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

I missed the holidays at there. =)

It been one month since worked at Tan Tock Seng Hospital, got to know more friends. They were so friendly and kind-hearted. Working so united, however there were also some friends whom left the company too. Hope to keep in contact.

Yesterday, went dining with Jackie, passed her the gift from my holidays. as usual we had a wonderful chatting time while dining. it's been quite some time since our last dinner in Jan.. haha. all the best, see you..

2007-08-20T13:59:00.000+08:00

Last saturday, went to hear a Will Talk at AIA HQ. dun ask why i go, cos my financial adviser invite me to go there hear. haha.

Though i'm still young, dun have any estate or property, but get to know about the law regarding my assets if anythings happen to me. Learn how the law divides the assets according.

Thanks Tjio for inviting me to hear such a wonderful and meaning Will Talk

2007-08-17T09:28:00.000+08:00

Yes, Today is the last day for my attachment. so happy.

Finally three months passed, everything went smoothly. =)

Yesterday morning went to Tan Tock Seng Hospital for an interview for Pharmacy Assistant, after which within an hour the person called and she told me i was being chosen.

In the afternoon, went to Changi General Hospital for my health result, the doctor said excellent health.

After leaving CGH, went to sign the contract for the Pharmacy Assistant job. was told that i would be paid $6 per hour, 0830 - 530 pm, sometimes may need to work on weekends and PH.

well, now working at two different organisations, weekdays will be at TTSH whereas Sunday will be working at Hang Ten Enterprises.

anyway glad that i can get to learn new things at another organisation.

the reason why we are here in this earth : we live to learn.

Looking forward towards my holiday trip in september. =)

hmm.. one thing that currently on my agenda that quite hard to resolve:

accept Ms E decision or heed Ms J , Ms A and Ms T advice??

2007-08-11T09:30:00.000+08:00

Yesterday was an enjoyable day, finally can get to relax, watch movie since my last step into cinema last year.

last night meet Seek Lee and Shi Miao for dinner / supper..

after which they suggest go watch movie. yup, we walked from Marina Sqaure to Suntec, then from Suntec to Marina Square again to find out what are the movies they had. Finally we settled down at Marina Square cos mid-night movies are very limited, only a few titles..

we watch Flash Point.. story with no background.. however we still enjoy the action scences in the movie. haha.

It was 0200am when the movie ended.. the three of us was super tired.. luckiky saturday we dun need to work.

2007-06-25T08:59:00.000+08:00

Last Saturday meet adviser Tjio from AIA for breakfast at Crystal Jade Restaurant.

It's been quite some time since we last meet last Dec. She's still as friendly and caring as before. haha.

we had a good long chat, at the same time she also done a financial review with me on the insurance policies i had bought from her as well as from other companies.

yup, i must admit that i'm not good at saving money, haha. Tjio also highlighted the importance of saving money not in terms of buying insurances but also reserving the money for some urgent purposes. hmm.. i will heed her advise and learn to save money.

as recommended, I'll go to Standard Chartered and open a saving account.

somehow i felt, of the four financial advisers and the policies i had, each individual of them had their own opinions.

But i'm glad knowing them, they are a group of caring people from various companies. =)

2007-06-21T11:05:00.000+08:00

This week was a meeting sessions. haha

Yesterday after attachment, went to meet Charlene at Bugis.

we went for dinner at a Japanese Restaurant, nice food and dessert.

Thanks for the present and the nice beautiful B'day card made by herself. The card was hand-written and drawn by herself, a card which cannot find anywhere in the world. Thanks you Charlene for the effort in making the card.

look forward to meet you another day =)

I'm so touched that many of my friends remembered my birthday with all your sincere wishes. unlike my parents whom dun even bother.

dear friends: take care, hope to keep n touch with all of you.

2007-06-18T22:19:00.000+08:00

How I Celebrate my 21st Birthday Today.

Received many birthday greetings via text messages and cards from friends. Thanks, i'm so touch. haha.

It's just like a normal day to me, though many people will celebrate with their families or their love ones. However here is completely different, my parents don't bother, carrying on their daily life, sildings also the same. i got no comments. ...

Wake up as usual in the morning 6am, took my shower and etc.. but i didn't went for my attachment, cos i dun wan to spend my 21 st birthday at the company which i really really dislike.

11am meet Julie at Tanjong Pagar there, to open the CPF investment account at DBS Bank. along the way she explained and told me about the investment she doing for me, and i give her my trust, as she is one of my trusted financial adviser. =)

It was noon after finishing all the paper works at DBS. Julie left to her destination whereas i took a bus down to Suntec City Hang Ten outlet to pass Angel some documents she wanted me to print. Angel loves taking photos, kept asking me to take photos with her. haha. we took some pictures with funny frames. 18 June is her last contract day at Hang Ten, dunno when my last day at Hang ten.

3pm i make my way back home to take some thing before meeting Esther at Paragon in the evening. Soon after reaching home, less than 5 mins left my house again to Orchard.

As scheduled, 6pm meet Esther, whom is also one of my financial advisers, to collect my insurance policy then we went to have dinner in a restaurant at Paragon. hmm.. yup, had a wonderful dinner. =) we chat about life as we eat along. learnt from her some familiar facts in life : dun be discouraged easily, must learn through mistakes. haha. Thanks Esther, next treat on me. =)

hmm.. one day of happy time passed so fast, how i wish today's time can continue longer.

hmm.. promised julie something.. but.. how to??

Friends are my next closest group of people in life after my grandma.

Looking forward to meet all of you.

2007-06-18T21:45:00.000+08:00

Last weekend for my part time job, I was attached to Hang Ten Kids Outlet at Suntec City.

I had a wonderful time working with Angel, the only staff there. Angel is so fun-going and friendly, we had a wonderful time chatting there whole day cos really no customers for the entire weekends. so is the total sales : terrible bad.

Angel and me. haha

really enjoy myself there. There were so many cute, lovely and innocent kids running around. It's the little kid world. There were kids fun laughter and babies' cries sound. Working at there really fun, though the number of customers coming in to buy clothes were rare, seeing the young children running and playing around make me so envy of them.

Their parents were so caring to them, carrying them in their arms, so warming. these 21st century children really had a lovely childhood, how i really envy them.

2007-06-18T08:19:00.001+08:00

I turned 21 today! haha =)

2007-06-16T12:03:00.000+08:00

hmm.. yes, I'm planning a trip, and my next holiday destination is re-visiting Ho Chi Ming City - Vietnam. I want to vist the various tourist attractions and a relaxful retreat.

This time round again, i'm traveling alone. cos dunno who want to go with me there.

Planning to go there around end August after my industrial attachment. most probably will take Tiger Airways flight to there as air journey to there is only 1 h 30 mins and also budget- S$169 for a round trip air ticket, inclusve of all taxes.

I've been there last year with my relatives, but didn't get to enjoy cos was staying at the rural kampong for the entire week. In the kampong villlage there; nothing to do, nothing to see, but got tasty food there. =) haha. I miss the chicken noodles and meat rice. Even singapore-based vietnamese restuarant cannot compare to it. I want to do shopping at there too. =)

Done much research on the accommodations details and had some in mind.

Most probably will spent 5 days 4 nights there, and set my total expenses at S$420, which is more than enough. cos everything there is relatively low costs. anyway still have much vietnam currency from the previous trip

favourable exchange rate S$1 = ~10 555 Dongs
accommodation costs less than S$24 per night,
food costs less than S$1 per person.

now to my holiday trip is 2 months time, so what i need to do is save money for the expenses. haha. Looking forward towards that day. =)

anyone wants to join me are most welcome =)

2007-06-14T14:04:00.000+08:00

Haizz.. now at my attachment company, these few days is really BORED.. entire day just sit here, nothing to do, no news from my liaison officer also, though he said will give me a request upon my request.

Sitting here, nothing to do, recalling back to last saturday BBQ, it was so fun. there were laughter and joy in the air. I really miss the BBQ and friends too, if only the time would pass slowly last saturday night for the BBQ. Thanks for coming down. =)

When will we, friends be able to meet again and BBQ-ing?? will all of us get to together again?

really look forward towards the day whereby all of us will get to meet again.

dear all friends, do keep in contact. =)

2007-06-10T08:36:00.000+08:00

Yesterday was a special day, it was a wonderful and full of good memories day.

haha.

I celebrated my 21st Birthday early instead of 18 June- BBQ-ing with all my wonderfuls friends.

I'll always bring these wonderful memories along with me every seconds and moments.

so happy and glad to see all you there, though some is missing.. haha

I really enjoyed the time spent with all of you BBQ-ing, chatting, eating.

hope to keep in contact in future after graduation or NS enlistment for guys, as well as me.

Today felt very unwell, got a terrible headache and sudden chest pain, so didn't went to work instead went to see doctor. I'm very happy that today dun need to go work. haha

8 am went to Bedok PolyClinic to see doctor and he refer me to Changi General Hospital for further details on my chest pain after doing the ECG. after that went supermarket shopping for my BBQ food items.

at the same time Esther called me, so afternoon went to meet Esther at Paragon coffee bean and she explain the crisis cover plan to me.. should i consider taking the crisis cover plan? life is over-protected by insurance plan.

haiz.. got nothing to comment on my attachment progress or company.

Everyday the supervisor kept ask me go to Tuas Waste Water Plant site for my attachment, go there also nothing to do; either stand under the hot sun for the entire day or sit inside the control room and stare at the blank air. :(

Liaison Officer also not showing any concern on how i doing for my attachment. =(

was very frustrated, I emailed him and declare to him i want a transfer to other company. there's nothing i can do at this present company, even working at Hang Ten is much more better, at least i know what i should do.

I want a transfer!!!

anyway, I hope to meet all of you during the BBQ party this saturday, 9 June at Pasir Ris Park, pit #45.

2007-05-30T23:59:00.000+08:00

Industrial Attachment Placement ( IAP ) had started this week.

however, its a sad and disappointing start for me.

Firstly my liaison officer didn't even bother to contact me since one week ago as i had emailed him to enquire about my IAP.

On the first day of IAP, reached very early to the company at MacPherson area, 0800am. but the person came to open the office at 0845am. I was got nothing to do there. Instead the person gave me 3 yellow pages book to READ!!!!! somemore my break time is only 30 MINS instead of 1 hour.. haizz..

The entire day at there was spent READING yellow pages!!!

ON that morning, I was also told that my pay is only S$20, based on per working day = lesser than what the attachment paper agreed as S$420.

Yesterday and today i was posted to Tuas water treatment construction site. Go there even worst. struck in the control room, unable to do anything at there. time passes extremely SLOWLY!!! haizz..

I dun mind traveling to far working place but could give me some meaningful to do instead of keeping me inside a room for these two entire days in the control room alone. WHY is my IAP so miserable?? my friends are doing well and fine at their respective companies though it's far from their home. they are working happily there. but me is suffering here.. so miserable and sad.. no one i can really approach to at there..

who would understand??

2007-05-24T11:32:00.000+08:00

Final Year Project is finally over.

next week will be the Industrial Attachment Placement.

Yesterday attended the breifing, i was attachment to Precision Control Pte Ltd

Haiz.. an Engineering Company.. what can i do there? though it's quite near to my house, 20 mins bus journey.. somewhereas some of the students are sent very far.. e.g. East meet West.

they travel from East and North area all the way to Jurong. I also dun mind going to Jurong or Pioneer Road along Jurong West but i was given at MacPherson area.

2007-05-21T15:36:00.000+08:00

2007-05-14T13:10:00.000+08:00

wow.. times flies really fast.

recalled to first week of Final Year Project in March, i was complaining that time was passing so slowly but now is already week 11, coming nearly to end of FYP in week 12, which is nine days more. I'll be starting my attachment soon in 28 May. Project hmm.. still not yet completed.

hmm I got another simulation to develop, a grantt chart not drawn yet, lastly 100 pages report not yet completed. Now then preparing to close up everything before next week presentation. haha.

wondering which type of company would i be posted to for my attachment, no programming pls..

a sincere thanks for some of you whom helped me in doing my project and concern too. =)

everyone take care :)

though now i should concentrate on my project, i'm thinking of a holiday trip.. I miss Cameron Highlands as well as Vietnam. One of these days before enlisted in NS this year-end, I'll go and visit these places again.

anyone wants to join me??

came across this poem, and find it meanful..

Friends are there when the tides are high, when a helping hand is needed to cross the beaches. Friends have comfort in their voice and compassion in their eyes and you know it's saved just for you.

Friends hold you, listen to you and let you have your peace without needing you to ask them to do so.

Friends can fightand it doesn't matter. Friends can laughwhen there's nothing to laugh at. Friends cry together, smile together but they won't die together.

One will always be by the other's side, and watch as their last light fades. One will always grieve, because that's how it's meant to be. One will always have their memory passed on through another, because a true friend will never let that memory die.

2007-05-11T13:18:00.000+08:00

Yesterday whole body was in pain..due to the NAFA test.. very unbearable pain, cannot walk properly and the pain is even killing every steps i walked. ENDURE the pain.. haizz

In the evening after clocking out at 6pm, went straight down to Fuji Xerox Tower at Tanjong Pager for the Finance talk by some Professionals and Insurance Advisers from Stragetic Partners Company.

Reach there is around 645pm plus so skipped my dinner as the talk starts at 7pm. Stepped out of the lift, wow.. so many people from the banking and finance sector.

I felt like stepping into a foregin land. luckily the HR person who asked me to come, picked me up from the crowd.. went to the classroom and seated, waiting for the person to began his speech followed by many others etc..

The talk / workshop lasted 3 hours plus.. so long.. however learnt quite a few things from the speakers as well as their experience being a Financial Adviser.

Actually the workshop aim is advertising their job, marketing their company and take this opportunity to ask us join them as Financial Adviser / Insurance Company.

hmm.. this workshop prove to be useful, as we get to interact with them, they share their working experiences, and the career path in the banking and finance industry.

Finally the workshop ended at 930pm. haha

after that went to Tanjong Pagar MRT station to meet Seek Lee, to pass her some document.. Then we walked some distance to Lao Pa Sat to have dinner cum supper.

wow.. she ordered 6 dishes of food plus mine, which seems to be for 10 person shares. haha.

I can't imagine that the two of us extractly finished all the foods - 2 plates of seafood rice, big plate of satays, big plate of sambal string ray, the big plate of vegetable and the biggest plate seafood lala. haha, we quite big eaters for yesterday.

Time was getting late in the night le.. 1115pm went to take train back..

2007-05-10T11:25:00.000+08:00

Yesterday went for the make-up NAFA Test which i skipped earlier last week. took the test together with the students from School of Chemical & Life Science.

4 pm walked to the stadium, a far end of the campus.. take it as warm up ba..

actually I was down with a terrible flu and slide headache, but cannot be excused. then no choice, to take the test.

The first five stations was ok, namely the pull up, sit up, broad jump, shuttle run and sit & reach.. However come to the last station - 2.4 Km run. It was raining "cats and dogs", thought they will cancel the 2.4 run, however the answer is NO.. They make us run in the big rain!!

again, no choice, take the 2.4 km at the NYP outdoor stadium. It was raining as we took the 2.4km test. one round of the stadium track is 400m, so need to run 6 rounds. haiz..

perhaps due to long time never run long distance, felt very breatheless and uncomfortable.. didn't gave up, just run till completed the 6 rounds.. Took 13 mins++ to complete, but failed under the Male requirements. haizz.. think i must train myself and prepared for NS, if not life will be more worst.

Was completely wore off after the run and the five stations. flu was not getting well after the run. whole person was soaked with the rain water and sweat.

It was around 530pm after completed the last station. slowly walked back to Blk S with my tired mind and body..

when i reached blk S, it was 550 pm.. time to clock out le. then again drag myself to blk M to tap my card to clock out.. after that went back to Blk S to change my wet attire.. and packed my desk to go home..

reached home was around 8pm.. ate my dinner, shower, then sleepzzz...

Woke up this morning for school, my entire body was completely PAIN!!!!

It was so painful from neck to leg, must endure!!! as usual, leave at 7am to NYP..

along the way, was enduring the pain.. can't even walk properly.. haizz.. got a hard time climbing up and down the stairs too. just now walked to AMK central from NYP, it took me double the time i usually walk to there. pain was getting worsen instead. now in the lab, sitting down blogging, don't want to make any unnecessary move about, skipping my lunch too. the body like going to collapse soon.

I think i better going to train myself for more running, if not next time in NS, going to rot there..

In the evening, need to go down to Fuji Xero tower for the career talk by some professionals, they will evaborate on jobs opportunity, interviews skills etc. I hope to learn something from there.

PAIN...

2007-05-04T09:42:00.000+08:00

omg

this morning, when my supervisor came, asked him to sign my weekly progress report.

hmm.. happened to ask him about the project report, then he paused for a while, ( deep in my mind, thought he will said about 40 pages or so), but it was 100 PAGES instead.. wow..

what can i write for a long 100 pages report on Flash project??? haizz. what should i do??

even the engineering students in the same lab also done around 30 pages till now. dunno whether will they continue to add more..

back to the project, my supervisor said that the simulation is not good enough, need to improve on it, as well as adding two more simulations. wow.. this is really a tedious time, 2 more weeks before the final presentation.

2007-04-26T14:45:00.000+08:00

This week is the 8th week of Final Year Project (FYPJ), another 4 more weeks in NYP before I starts my Industrial Attachment Placement (IAP). Looking forward to that day.

currently had two worries :

1. Final Year Project Presentation

2. Working Schedule

For FYP, my project - create an elearning tools using Flash. It is still under-going construction.. haha.

I've done simulation of the process and now left with some animation as well as some missing slides to add on. Thanks Charlene for her help and advices on the Flash applications. :)

Now worries about the presentation of the project in week 12 and also the company which i'll be attached to. I hoped there's no programming involved.

For Work :

currently now only worked on weekends due to Final year project. long weekdays in NYP.. :(

Then next coming month is the attachment.

On Tuesday, called my part time job area manager to inform her that i'm unable to work on weekdays and saturdays as well due to attachment till August. With no doubts, she replies Ok, will discuss with HR manager, and she allows me to work only on Sundays from May onwards till end of attachement though the contract i signed in July 2004 requires me to work min 32 hrs / week. haha. that's nice.

This had make me feel better as i can concentrate on my project.

For Now:

hmm.. now I'm sitting in the lab, doing nothing..updating blog..

Days are becoming bored again..

Sentimental songs had became my breakfast. every morning, wake up then turn on the mixture of sentimental songs from various artists.

During the journey to NYP, and in the lab, it's the sentimental songs that accompanies me through the slow and cold lonely time during the final year project now.

songs that keep life going..

"well i'll down with ship, and i won't put up my hands and surrender, there'll not white flag above my door.." - white flag by Dido

"When the light disappears And when this world's insincere You'll be safe here When nobody hears you scream I'll scream with you" - you'll be safe here by rivermaya

Time flies fast, this week is the seventh week of Final Year Project (FYPJ). Still got 5 more weeks to go. =)

Got to do work seriously on the project now le. haha.

What I had done during these past seven weeks during FYP??

well.. It had been a boring and tedious semester for me, yet enjoyable cos i can run around anytime during FYP, though it' not permitted and against the rules. my supervisor also seldom come to see me even though his office is beside the my lab.

For the first few weeks, well it's very boring. attached to Blk S lab, whereby out of nine persons in these lab, seven are from the engineering course - SEG, only me and another girl is from the Information Tec course - SIT.

Everyday in the lab from 830am to 6pm till 28 May which is week 12.

well well.. first day, nine of us dunno each other, so the entire lab is filled with quietness and *coldness because of the freezing air-cons - so freezing temperature.. :(

On the first day, each of us were given a individual project to do individually. haizz..

I received the project for E-learning - develop a flash page on Screw Thread Measurement. omg.. don't know how to use flash, never learn before for the past two years here..

Never mind.. do online research on the theory part, then went library to borrow books on Flash!

luckily the lecturer got organise a one day flash basic class for us. She taught us the basics and we managed to get a clearer understanding of flash.

The few weeks, as mentioned.. morning do online research.. do some flash slides.. however very bored.. cos no one can talk or ask question about the project. So in the afternoon, I slip out of the lab, went to many places. Went to Sentosa, Orchard Road, Funan, Toa Payoh, Far East Plaza etc and even went home. not went there shopping but to have my lunch cos so tired of NYP foods. haha. Even my daily lunch break time, i walked 15 mins to Ang Mo Kio to have my lunch. NYP canteens and food junction are so crowded with people and the foods ok la. at least Ang Mo Kio there got Sub-Way, KFC etc..

Weekends i still got to work.. haizz.. 12 hrs full shift. insufficient rest. hoped that there's an eighth day in each week, so can rest on that day. =)

Now so far the project is 90% done. except for some adjustments and some missing bits.

I planning to travel next month to Malaysia - budget.. during the weekends, who want to come along? if not i'm traveling alone.. haha.

omg..

Next thursday is the mid-term presentation of the Final Year Project ( FYP )..

most of the flash applications slides had done.. except for the Object Simulation part.

need to Simulate the measuring of screw thread diameter using micrometer. haizz.. got to draw the micrometer then, simulates the actions.. what a headache thing.. i dunno how to do..

14 April that's the presentation date. 12 days more to do..

2007-03-23T09:51:00.000+08:00

Haizz.. Today is the end of third week for my Final Year Project. Still got nine weeks more to go!!

However during these three weeks, my project Somehow dragging behind. I’m now lost in my Project – Macromedia Flash – somehow dunno how to use this software, I only done 19 slides without simulation and animations. Everyday sitting in this freezing cold lab facing to this PC whole day from 8 am to 6 pm.

The project supervisor also didn’t bother about us, neither did he came to find out what problems we encounter nor did he provide any useful information we need to do for the project. He simply gave us each a few pieces of paper, some power point slides and asks us to refer to it. What a junk of rubbishes are those so call “information and reference”!

Unlike my friends at the other blocks, they were given much appreciated help and great care from their respective supervisors. Their supervisors will come in frequently and help them on their project. Whereas at here, the few poorly treated of us were given an individual project to work on for 12 weeks INDIVIDUALY.

Days are getting so tedious, don’t have enough sleep or rest. Everyday getting up at 0530 am and sleeping at 11pm, nevertheless are my weekends - work full day from morning till late in the night. Hope there is an eighth day in every week, so that I can rest and do things that I would want to do.

Everyday after my project in campus, how I wish I will be sitting with friends in the evening (be it a café or fast food restaurant) chatting away – exchanging views, forgetting all the miserable time in campus. The most disappointing part is that – of so many friends, all of them are busy working, or busy. Hardly able to get in touch with them except during weekends when they are free but I’m working on weekends. Haizz..

weekdays..

2 March 2007.

It was an event i looking forward to; BBQ!! haha.

This is the third time organsing it. Though it was raining in the late afternoon and evening, of out of the 25 invitations sent out, 15 people turned up. I was so glad.

took a cab with friends whom helped me out with some prepared raw-food to there. we managed to set up the party tent in the rain and shelter the pit with the big tent. mean while received many calls and msg from friends whom said they were unable to turn up due to over time work or they will be reaching at a later time.

Shi Miao was the first person to reached, after which received a call from Lynn, she lost her way at the park, then went to meet she and led her the way to the pit, after which most of the invited friends turned up around 730pm plus..

dunno somehow they separated in 3 groups. they were sitting apart. perhaps they dunno one another as i invited poly, sec sch and work place friends. they were too shy to talk ba..

Norli together with soon heng was the most active group, followed by my poly friends..

the BBQ-ing thing leave to junyi and his friends,

I joined Lynn, who is sitting with Seek lee at another table, finally she's being cheerful again. smile, yup, will call the HQ and process the thing for you, as well as the information i've promised to check for you, all the best to you. =)

pass you the sunflower next week.

hoped all of you enjoed the food and the BBQ night, thanks for coming too.

Yesterday went fishing with Charlene, i also asked another friend, soon heng along too, meet them at 4pm at Pasir Ris Interchange, took bus 403 to the park.

The weather was quite fine yesterday and we choose a spot at the sea shore then fish there. In the mean while, we stick the rod into the sand and went around to look for any sea shell. haha, found some nice sea shells and also got a suprise when we went back to the rod. we caught a...... water snake... it's quite disgusting as the hook has went through the mouth and it's still struggling till stopped == dead.

Then we packed up the fishing rod and the accessories and walked to Downtown East's Lemon Grass Restaurant to have our dinner before proceeding back to Interchange and took bus back home..

Truly, yesterday, we really enjoy ourselves there. haha.
