September 28, 2008 If all of you didn't know, I have to announce this bloody news to the whole wide world! I lost my phone and mp3 to a bloody $1.60 500ml coke bottle. And of course I sent them a really draggy complain letter and they better get back to me asap.

September 21, 2008 Kinda wish I was still living in the past now. Because there's so much I want to do and so many places I wanna go but even I myself have no clue where they are except for the fact that it's in sunny island Singapore. Small place but for a road idiot like me, the size of this place doesn't matter anyway.
This is what I've been craving everyday and telling everyone about how much I miss it for the past month or maybe even longer. I swear I miss eating EVERY SINGLE DISH. -cries out for it-
It's next to some shop that delivers pizza, I'll treat the first person who tells me where this place is a nice meal there.
Why do things have to turn out this way?

September 17, 2008 Never felt so much stress for a very long time and all of a sudden I just don't know where to begin my work. That was when I decided to place it away and start off with another simpler company, which slightly improved. Overall I had barely enough time to read a message and I only replied many at the end of a day's work.
And there comes along this magical photo that never fails to keep me going. (:

September 14, 2008 My newest addition. It can cover its eyes or clasp its hands and make :) sounds( I am so tempted to press its belly everytime but afraid the battery runs out). How adorably sweet and cute is that? (:
Thank you (:but your hugs and kisses are inevitably preferred :D

Sleepy, but I just woke up from my very long nap since about 8pm at night. But overall it's been such a meaningful day and nix is one very happy girl. I wish time would just freeze and remain there forever.
Set back to be a little poorer than usual but whatever rocks my boat makes me happy!

September 13, 2008 Happy Birthday baby! :D
One very very tired nix here, at least she's pretty sure she wouldn't have aching muscles for the next 3 days thanks to the HUGE difference better shoes provide.
Learnt to go up to gear 4 today wish is so damn fucking (pardon my language, but it had to be stressed) fun. I'm so damn hooked! I love riding, I really do despite being a slow learner. I cannot wait, I must perfect everything so I can go through all the lessons and get my licence quickly and smoothly. FREEDOM AND SUPPER!!! I already have 3 people on my list I wanna ask. Two on priority. By then I'll know who to ask. I think I already know now.
Oh, on the sidenote, Godiva's chocolate elixir is love. $10 well spent. =p

September 11, 2008 I haven't been blogging for a long time, guilty as charge. But I'm a busy girl. Busy, yet happy (most of the time) (:
Been doing a lot of self-reflection the past few days and I realised (more like re-confirming actually) how lucky I am.
I've probably travelled the most number of times this year though I always feel it's never enough. Macau, Zhuhai(China), Thailand, KL, Mount Ophir, Melbourne and Pulau Aur and not to forget a possible trip to KL next weekend with my colleagues.
Within the last 7 days and the next 7days to come, I'd very easily be a thousand dollars poorer(no I'm not going to break it down in case the lucky one reads it).
In the past 9 months or so, I feel like I've overcome many, many hurdles and now I shall pen down my list of 5 achievements(achieved/ to be achieved by end of) this year.
1. ACCA - achieved, graduated in Feb 2008. 2. Driving licence - achieved, on 31 July 2008. 3. Open water diving certificate - achieved, 7 Sept 2008. 4. Bike licence and bike - in the process, passed TRIAL RTT, awaiting RTT on 2 Oct 2008. 5. Financially stable without parent's support - in progress
and when I hit achievement no. 5, I already know what I want (finally, I got a wishlist! I always don't seem to want anything when others were full of it - psp, cool hp, ipod, iphone, whatever expensive gadget). It really is rewarding to spend your own money.
Wishlist 1. Motorcycle COE and a bike (of course) $3k estd? 2. BCD, regulator, 1st stage, octopus and whatnots, $800+ 3. Mask, snorkle, fins, wetsuit and other accessories $300-400 4. Waterproof casing and waterproof camera up to 10metres $600 estd
Yes, I've got expensive desires.
Speaking of which, one of the partners in my office didn't sound too enthusiastic about me learning bike, he turned to another colleague and kept telling her how dangerous it was, and how the person suffers if they didn't die immediately but suffer from being handicapped, all that without looking at me while talking anymore. HAHA.
Speaking of office, I'm bloody bored of admin and I now feel underpaid because somewhere else is giving a HIGHER pay to a friend who hasn't completed ACCA and gave her 3 months to enjoy herself before starting work. How pleasant.
All the shit aside, I still feel very much blessed and am just looking forward to Saturday! *Countsdown to the babysitting & rewards of it* Lovely.
To sign off, I'll show you my sexy tan line. I've got 3 shades now with patches of skin on my arms peeling off. Thanks to the shorts and the sun while I was lazing on the boat ride back to Mersing.
Get your sexy back! (Sorry, a little high now)

September 02, 2008
This song is currently ringing in my head.
The past week or two (and also the week ahead) has proved meaningful with me learning the most since starting work and meeting up with people. I am happy that everyone's life is moving on rather smoothly and that we still make the effort to keep in touch even though we all lead busy lives, the slightest thought of it counts.
Assumingly, the next time we'd probably meet up will be when we'd all have started working, having a quick catchup during our lunch breaks, slightly longer than usual, and sipping a cup of coffee, chatting at the same time. Not the best but it'll suffice.
I guess this is part and parcel of growing older. Bleah.
