Many things happened recently...

2009-08-16T12:25:00.002+08:00

Been a while since I last blogged. Just some updates, too many things been happening recently. Started off with my annual In-Camp-Training which lasted for a week. Following that my grandma had passed away the week after that.

Grandma was one who never complained as well shouted. I remembered vividly that she would still remember me the last time I saw her which was during new year period when I called her. To her, I was juz the little boy who was still studying. Realised that I been always busy other stuff with work,etc, during the weekdays. Weekends are always short. Think too little time spent with family. It was a different type of funeral as she has crossed 100 already. The guy in-charge-of the funeral setup, mentioned that funeral for pple crossing 100 is celebration with the theme is different. Anyway, saw many of my relatives during the funeral period, all with different english names.

Work is getting heavier by the day. Realised that I'm staying back to OT more often the last week. Thou the week was short, I still had to OT for 2 out of the 4 working day. Not forgetting that I'm still short of reading the SRS which there is a meeting next week to discuss. Haiz... Not to mentioned the Open house.

Anyway, the takeaway from this blog is to spend more time with your love ones which having the regret that time is not spent. Have a great week ahead. =)

domino effect

2009-07-17T00:25:00.001+08:00

The domino effect is a chain reaction that occurs when a small change causes a similar change nearby, which then will cause another similar change, and so on in linear sequence. The term is best known as a mechanical effect, and is used as an analogy to a falling row of dominoes. It typically refers to a linked sequence of events where the time between successive events is relatively small. It can be used literally (an observed series of actual collisions) or metaphorically (complex systems such as global finance, or in politics, where linkage is only a hypothesis).

Taken from wikipedia.

Well, another of my colleague is leaving end of this mth. I'm feel the domino effect. Haiz.. Realised my fuse is getting shorter by the day and snapping very easily.

Anyway, next wk is ICT. Escape from reality for a week. tata for now.

Productivity

2009-06-18T14:49:00.003+08:00

Woke up rather early this morning. Had a very bad sore throat for the past few days that I decided to see the MO. Haven't had MC for awhile le, I guess.

Since I was up early, decided to be more productive this morning. Cleared up most of the letters on my desk, payment for credit cards thru internet banking...etc.. Think I was rather inspired by the last blog entry extracted from ZenHabits.

To improve productivity, decided to use netvibes. Been awhile since I last used it. Anyway, all the blogs n websites that I read are all found there. haha! =)

The 10 Essential Rules for Slowing Down and Enjoying Life More

2009-06-14T17:39:00.001+08:00

It’s an irony of our modern lives that while technology is continually invented that saves us time, we use that time to do more and more things, and so our lives are more fast-paced and hectic than ever.

Life moves at such a fast pace that it seems to pass us by before we can really enjoy it.

However, it doesn’t have to be this way. Let’s rebel against a hectic lifestyle and slow down to enjoy life.

A slower-paced life means making time to enjoy your mornings, instead of rushing off to work in a frenzy. It means taking time to enjoy whatever you’re doing, to appreciate the outdoors, to actually focus on whoever you’re talking to or spending time with — instead of always being connected to a Blackberry or iPhone or laptop, instead of always thinking about work tasks and emails. It means single-tasking rather than switching between a multitude of tasks and focusing on none of them.

Slowing down is a conscious choice, and not always an easy one, but it leads to a greater appreciation for life and a greater level of happiness.

Here’s how to do it.

1. Do less. It’s hard to slow down when you are trying to do a million things. Instead, make the conscious choice to do less. Focus on what’s really important, what really needs to be done, and let go of the rest. Put space between tasks and appointments, so you can move through your days at a more leisurely pace.

2. Be present. It’s not enough to just slow down — you need to actually be mindful of whatever you’re doing at the moment. That means, when you find yourself thinking about something you need to do, or something that’s already happened, or something that might happen … gently bring yourself back to the present moment. Focus on what’s going on right now. On your actions, on your environment, on others around you. This takes practice but is essential.

3. Disconnect. Don’t always be connected. If you carry around an iPhone or Blackberry or other mobile device, shut it off. Better yet, learn to leave it behind when possible. If you work on a computer most of the day, have times when you disconnect so you can focus on other things. Being connected all the time means we’re subject to interruptions, we’re constantly stressed about information coming in, we are at the mercy of the demands of others. It’s hard to slow down when you’re always checking new messages coming in.

4. Focus on people. Too often we spend time with friends and family, or meet with colleagues, and we’re not really there with them. We talk to them but are distracted by devices. We are there, but our minds are on things we need to do. We listen, but we’re really thinking about ourselves and what we want to say. None of us are immune to this, but with conscious effort you can shut off the outside world and just be present with the person you’re with. This means that just a little time spent with your family and friends can go a long way — a much more effective use of your time, by the way. It means we really connect with people rather than just meeting with them.

5. Appreciate nature. Many of us are shut in our homes and offices and cars and trains most of the time, and rarely do we get the chance to go outside. And often even when people are outside, they’re talking on their cell phones. Instead, take the time to go outside and really observe nature, take a deep breath of fresh air, enjoy the serenity of water and greenery. Exercise outdoors when you can, or find other outdoor activities to enjoy such as nature walks, hiking, swimming, etc. Feel the sensations of water and wind and earth against your skin. Try to do this daily — by yourself or with loved ones.

6. Eat slower. Instead of cramming food down our throats as quickly as possible — leading to overeating and a lack of enjoyment of our food — learn to eat slowly. Be mindful of each bite. Appreciate the flavors and textures. Eating slowly has the double benefit of making you fuller on less food and making the food taste better. I suggest learning to eat more real food as well, with some great spices (instead of fat and salt and sugar and frying for flavor).

7. Drive slower. Speedy driving is a pretty prevalent habit in our fast-paced world, but it’s also responsible for a lot of traffic accidents, stress, and wasted fuel. Instead, make it a habit to slow down when you drive. Appreciate your surroundings. Make it a peaceful time to contemplate your life, and the things you’re passing. Driving will be more enjoyable, and much safer. You’ll use less fuel too.

8. Find pleasure in anything. This is related to being present, but taking it a step farther. Whatever you’re doing, be fully present … and also appreciate every aspect of it, and find the enjoyable aspects. For example, when washing dishes, instead of rushing through it as a boring chore to be finished quickly, really feel the sensations of the water, the suds, the dishes. It can really be an enjoyable task if you learn to see it that way. The same applies to other chores — washing the car, sweeping, dusting, laundry — and anything you do, actually. Life can be so much more enjoyable if you learn this simple habit.

9. Single-task. The opposite of multi-tasking. Focus on one thing at a time. When you feel the urge to switch to other tasks, pause, breathe, and pull yourself back. Read more.

10. Breathe. When you find yourself speeding up and stressing out, pause, and take a deep breath. Take a couple more. Really feel the air coming into your body, and feel the stress going out. By fully focusing on each breath, you bring yourself back to the present, and slow yourself down. It’s also nice to take a deep breath or two — do it now and see what I mean. :)

Lazy sunday

2009-06-07T16:41:00.003+08:00

Today seems like kinda weird. Just a lazy sunday.. Probably because my nephew is not around today.. The gloomy weather seems just right to laze and catch up on some nap. I have to admit that I'm getting old.

Was running thru the bookmarks on my pc and revisiting some of the blogs that I have used to read, that's like way back since after uni days. Was thinking of putting a collection of all the photos since poly days till now but duno where to put them. Speaking of that, happened to go back to brinkster website that I used to have an account. The webpages that were up in the past were taken down due to inactivity for 6mths.. Looking at that think the last time I was there was probably in 2005. Anyway, got back the pwd and username. Nah.. Maybe I should put the photos up there... Maybe once I got the time will do just that. Haha!

Anyway, work has been getting much more or rather the scope have grown tremendously. Abit kua zhang but on work have increase but not the dollar value ya. I was not really looking at the jul bonus however, more $$ who won't want right? Anyway, it's like getting in to office, rush here and there and it's almost end of the day le. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I'm not dragging my feet to office. haha!

Recently just took ITIL, think I should spent some time studying. Dun think I'll be studying it today aniyway. Wish me luck! Just wanna laze. =p

如果我变成回忆 - Tank

2009-06-07T16:29:00.001+08:00

累了照惯例努力清醒着
也照惯例想你了
好怕一放心睡了
心跳在梦中不听话的就停止了
听着呼吸像浪潮摆动着
越美丽越让我忐忑
我还能珍惜什么
如果我连自己的脉搏都难掌握
如果我变成回忆退出了这场生命
留下你错愕哭泣
我冰冷身体拥抱不了你
想到我让深爱的你人海孤独旅行
我会恨自己如此狠心
如果我变成回忆终于没那么幸运
没机会白着头发
蹒跚牵着你看晚霞落尽
漫长时光总有一天你会伤心痊愈
若有人可以让他陪你我不怪你
快乐什么时候会结束呢
哪一刻是最后一刻
想把你紧紧抱着
可知你是我生命中的最舍不得
如果我变成回忆退出了这场生命
留下你错愕哭泣
我冰冷身体拥抱不了你
想到我让深爱的你人海孤独旅行
我会恨自己如此狠心
如果我变成回忆终于没那么幸运
没机会白着头发
蹒跚牵着你看晚霞落尽
漫长时光总有一天你会伤心痊愈
若有人可以让他陪你
如果我变成回忆最怕我太不通气
顽固的赖在空气霸占你心里每一寸空隙
要让依然爱我的你痛苦承受失去
这样不公平请你尽力把我忘记

Nothing is forever

2009-05-20T23:56:00.003+08:00

hm... so much for title ya.. Had the sudden urge to blogged it down. Been really busy with work lately.. Cambodia was previous month. Had my first long getaway ever since I graduated. So pathetic right.. It was quite a nice place less for the hot and high humidity weather. Anyway, back to work, Night shifts were killing me, glad that it was over. Went to Apri's wedding last wkend, it was great! It was like so grand and had much fun over there. Finally saw familar faces.

Realised something important to9, that it hard to have 2 faces. One for work & other for non-work. Really kept me thinking. Haiz. So glad she was understanding. I din realised that until today. Relationship is so fragile. Relationship needs commitment and communication for both party. Anyway, that's all for now. Cheerios

First post for 2009

2009-02-19T23:00:00.002+08:00

hi pps, been long time ever since I blogged. It's been quite a while since I settled into my current job. Think I shan't comment too much else kanna caught. Good news that recently happened was that I'm confirmed. Another good news, I got my own room, it's 02-18. Haha! Quite spacious room, 2/3 size of my bedroom. Bad news is lots of stuff to do. Actually it's been a habit that I don't actually go on msn during office hours. Internet is rare commodity in my office.

Met lots of ppls during the last few months. Enjoyed myself quite a bit during the foundation program. What else.. working late isn't that unsual. Looking forward to my next break.

Upgrading portion, I will be taking my PMP soon.

Have fun pps. =)

I'm moving on

2008-07-27T22:45:00.003+08:00

Hi pps...

Still wondering if anyone still comes to this blog. Yeah I know.. been eons since I last updated.

More then half a year since I last blogged. So many things happened for the past few months. It was just 2 months back since I had my 3rd ICT(in-camp training) for reservist. Combat shoot was great. My team had marksman! Cool right.. hehe.

Apart from that.. I'm moving on.. hehe.. For those who haven't seen my nick. I'm finally leaving my present coy to new one! No more month-end reporting for me.. whohoot
Come 18th Aug 08, a whole new job and new set of job scope.

To wrapped up my chapter in Pegasus, so many valuable lessons been learnt. It all started with me being quite sheltered previously in my previous coy and being more independent. A role which allowed my to explore into new areas; managing vendors, internal users, procurements of IT stuff, managing de-centralized servers, generating month end reports, J-Sox, even Interviewing candidates! The list just goes on. It seems just like a 'Shit Collector'. But one thing for sure, Pegasus has definitely made a more confident person. Thou the stay isn't long, there is more for me to learn else where...

It's kinda funny. Changing jobs is like pps getting married. When one gets married, there seem to be so many pps getting married at that time.

Upcoming will be my career with the govt sector. Who knows my car will in the way and more good news! Yeah no Monday blues for now le! Do drop me a hi if you read this! Will try to have more updates. Have a great wk ahead =)

Final post for 2007

2007-12-30T14:06:00.000+08:00

It's coming to the end of 2007. The year has just whizzed past. Looking back the past few months, so many changes this year. The year began with me spending my bonus on my mont blanc wallet n cyma watch.. Next was followed by the of changing job from rcl to my present. Next came along with relationship. The highlight of the end of the year would be reservist. The changed in environment was something which grew me. The family oriented company (my ex coy) was something which I missed. The present company had made me grew from a quite sheltered worker to be a less sheltered one. I used to believe that there is lesser policitics in a smaller coy. However, how wrong was I. The office policitics and managing of work schedule was something which will be with me. The recent reservist has made me a different person. Having to see my men and fellow commanders way of working, taught me something. I would say I was more focused in the activities that had to be done. It's always nice to meet them up once again. The topics talked were also different. One thing was a couple of them got married. Well.... time flies.

Hm... the thought of making new year resolutions will be up next. Think I should make some achievable resolutions. For now.. it's still save more money and make tonnes of money! hahaa.. Cheers, Have a great 2008 pps.

Cabs...

2007-12-01T17:43:00.000+08:00

Sorry ppls.. Been quite busy lately. Probably more like lazy to login into blogger. hehe..
Anyway, the story goes.. I flagged a total of 4 cabs in one day. That was quite a fair bit. The important thingy was darling & me were waiting to flag a cab last nite home from lau pa sat. We saw this couple of guys alighting from the cab just outside of lau pa sat. The taxi saw us and sort of wave his hands like "wait a while" signal. Then the two guys finally paid and got out of the cab. We approached and I opened the door. U know what happened next. The taxi driver said he ON CALL!!! Felt like telling him to go n die lor.. we waited for the two guys to get off.. He try to tell us say during that time he got call. I was fuming mad leh.. What the ****. Anyway, next time if I ever encounter this stuff. I only open the door. Take down his name and cab no. Write a complain letter.. Maybe to stomp also.. whahha!
Hm..maybe my complain letter will include.. is this kind service your company provide!! I demand an explaination. hehe!
Anyway, don't let me ever catch him again.. arg!!!

Blogging @ office. (Mth end reports still not done.. haiz)

Tata for now. have a great wkend pps. =)

What Tarot Card are You?

2007-09-22T10:29:00.000+08:00

You are The Hierophant

Divine Wisdom. Manifestation. Explanation. Teaching.

All things relating to education, patience, help from superiors.The Hierophant is often considered to be a Guardian Angel.

The Hierophant's purpose is to bring the spiritual down to Earth. Where the High Priestess between her two pillars deals with realms beyond this Earth, the Hierophant (or High Priest) deals with worldly problems. He is well suited to do this because he strives to create harmony and peace in the midst of a crisis. The Hierophant's only problem is that he can be stubborn and hidebound. At his best, he is wise and soothing, at his worst, he is an unbending traditionalist.

10 eco-friendly things to do with lemons from Eco Street

10 eco-friendly things to do with lemons from Eco Street

Lemons are our friends, and so are the people at Eco Street, so we thought we'd share their top tips on how the humble lemon can help you live an eco-friendly life. From cooking to cleaning to fighting off a cold, lemons really can do a lot for a small fruit. Read on for 10 eco-friendly things that you can do with lemons, then hot-foot it to your local farmers market to stock up!

1. Grow a lemon tree - the most eco-friendly thing to do with lemons is grow them so that you have your own carbon neutral supply. These can be grown in the UK, believe it or not.

2. Highlight your hair - much better for you and the environment than commercial bleaches. Mix the juice of one lemon with one teaspoon of salt and apply to your hair with a comb. Get out into the sun for a couple of hours. Do some vegetable gardening, tend your lemon tree, go for a walk, you get the picture. Don’t do this too often, it will dry your hair out.

More lemony tips after the jump
Click here to find out more!

3. Exfoliate and clean your feet - mix up some lemon pulp and brown sugar and get rubbing. Rinse and moisturise.

4. Combat bad breath - gargle with lemon juice to get rid of bad breath.

5. Fight off a cold - mix lemon juice with honey and hot water to sooth coughs and sore throats and give you a dose of vitamin C.

6. Sooth a sting - mix the juice of half a lemon with water and bathe a sting to lessen the pain.

7. Make homemade lemonade - and avoid all the chemical/preservative laden stuff in the shops. The basic recipe is 1 cup lemon juice, 1 cup organic sugar, 1 cup water. That will give you a syrup to dilute as you like. Add ice.

8. Freshen up your dishwasher - use half a lemon and jam it onto an upright in your dishwasher. Smells fresh, helps cut grease and has got to be more eco-friendly that those plastic lemon shaped things you can buy to do the same job.

9. Remove limescale from draining boards and taps - use half a lemon to rub over stainless steel draining boards and taps. Leave a minute, rinse and shine with a dry cloth.

10. Clean a bar - it’s a bartender’s favourite, just lemon and salt, rinse and shine.

HTC Touch P3450

2007-08-11T12:36:00.001+08:00

Reviews on HTC Touch (Extracted from reviews from cnet)
The compact HTC Touch features an advanced touch screen that lets you operate the smart phone with your fingertips. The Windows Mobile 6 smart phone also has an updated interface, integrated Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, and a 2-megapixel camera.

Cool feature I prefer:
The touchFLO feature is something like a cube feature.
Slim. Got a info feed which allows me to read feeds while on the move. Can integrate email (Yeah, just got my yahoo email up on my phone)

Lacks:
It lacks of a flash which pictures can't really be taken in dark places. The processor is abit slow. No qwerty keyboard which makes composing of sms / emails slower. Can be kinda slippery while holding.

Rating?
Hm... basically it has the necessary features of a pda. Not sure what other feature the phone has, have yet to read the manual.. hahah!
Pricing.. Hm.. one of the cheaper pda phones around. Plus it's a maker for O2 and Dopod, which means it's kinda same range as the mentioned two. For those worried about chinese characters, the box comes with CE-Star.
Outlook 2007 is also bundled in but it's 60 days trial. Interested, need more info? Just drop me a comment, will sure to feed you more info. =)

Key to happiness

2007-08-11T11:20:00.000+08:00

I happened to be selling some old papers to the rag-n-bone man earlier, happened to saw this paper with the words. So what is the key to happiness..
It states the key to happiness is not about not getting irritated, frustrated or upset. It is how quickly you snap out of it. How true is it?

What's your definition or key to happiness? =)

Alr.. Took a half day leave ytd to do some personal stuff. The funny thing is my supervisors speculates that I going for interview.. However, I didn't. The whole idea was to do the montage which I promised to do. Yeap, took quite a while. However, kinda sat in Mac's @ Bugis for good 2.5hrs. Quite happy with what I did. haha! The mac @ bugis juz e one opp the Fu Lu Suo tower one had this door. Or rather 9 out of 10 pple, push open e door instead of pull. It was suppose to be pull. Notice there are lots of youngster around there. haha! I haven't been to Bugis for ages. But it's nice to sit down eat lunch do montage.. Then do little shopping. Next was go collect photos then go home. So much been said n accomplished. There is this sense of uncertainty. G2000 having sale up to 70%. haha! =D

Shopping Spreee.....

2007-01-09T00:39:00.000+08:00

On well, I had a shitty day @ office today. Anyway, had retail therapy after that. It started off with cutting of my hair in prep for e wedding. Next was going from Far East shopping centre to Taka. My favourite shop "Mont Blanc" .. I got in, the next 10min I was out of the shop. I got it le.. That one I saw a couple of times be4. It is actually cheaper over @ Taka as compared to CityHall one. Wohoot, no need to wait for a ger / guy to buy le.hehe! Making own dreams come true is quite an achievement. Next, Citychain... I bought a cyma watch. I don't have a lot of working watches. Although, I have to say that I have 4 swatch watches. hehe! Sounds like contradiction ah. Anyway, Retail therapy always works. For those tinking of having the botok. Nar... U don't need it. That's all for now. =D

First entry for 2007

2007-01-02T15:22:00.000+08:00

Happy new year to all readers. Wishing all great health & prosperity. 2006 has passed so quickly. Here is 2007. Have your resolutions for 2006 been achieved? To certain extend I think that I had achieved some of them. I remembered one of mine was to spend more time with my family. It quite hard to quantify on how much was being spent. There is more in my list for this year. One of it is procrastination. Haha! I find that I'm still procrastinating quite a fair a bit this year. The long wkend is almost over and I'm not ready for tml. There so much to clear up this month. The wedding is approaching, I got my suit finally. After looking for it for such a long time I finally got it. Lets start off with the eve of new year, had celebrated with a couple of friends over @ Marina Mandarin. It was definitely something different. Have to agree that the view wasn't what we were looking @. I had my first D&D on Fri evening. It was rather interesting. Got sabo & being nominated for Best dress item which I got consolaton prize for it.
Anyway, there is still some more stuff for me to clear up. Have a great wk pple. Tink my next entry will be the mont blanc. hahaha! =)

Disappointment

2006-12-20T00:54:00.000+08:00

Place hopes too high.. fall harder. A lesson to be learnt. Place higher hopes on oneself. haha! Saw this on a friend's nick. Think tis sentence fits all "Surrounded by bullshit, just here to be taken as a fool"

So much is nothing or something.

2006-12-06T00:14:00.000+08:00

So much for nothin.. Somehow after reading so many blogs tonight, got lots of "Gan Chu". Simple words.. Thoughts. Probably it time for me again to take time off to rest and re-evaluate on what's my goal. What's both the short term and long term. How am I contributing to it currently. The work hasn't been really going fine lately, so much problems with the various system. Maybe is how the structure or the ways things are been done. I won't say that I am very efficient in my stuff, I agree that there are many areas for me to improve on. I trying hard to see where's my future. The future seems so bleak. I should stop the procrastination and get what needs to be done be done. Firstly, I tink I need to be more organized.. Haha! Time for bedtime.. I know i bored u pple with my entries. Lets hope I got more interesting topics next time around.. hehe.. =D

The little joy which turned otherwise

2006-12-03T18:17:00.000+08:00

A little thought..
Been tired this couple of wks. The wkend is coming to and end once again. Have connected to office to clear some stuff however, I was so tired that I fell asleep. haha! Nothing was been done yet.
The joy of christmas is around the corner once again. I nearly maxed up the credit limit of my card ytd, 1k. haha! The inital credit limit was actually 3k but I reduced it. haha! Omg, it's like the start of december only. haha! So what you do actually want for christmas? Juz a cozy dinner with that special one or would be the dinner gathering with a couple of close friends? What will it be?
Seems like I will soon need to get pressie too! The gift exchange will be around the corner. Haven't giving much of the thought of what to get yet. Many thoughts following thru my mind. hahaha!
Current feeling: Disillusion

the little joy in life..

2006-11-20T00:13:00.000+08:00

First of all, there isn't any linkage between e entry you are about to read with the title.. Haha! I always having difficulty finding a title for the blog. I would like to comment that qin, you very efficient. The photos took last nite already up. *Thumbs up*
Hm.. things will nvr be the same again. Sound familar ya. Went to pass thing to someone earlier. Made me feel like been taken advantage. I meant it isn't the first time. When something is required, you are been looked upon else the shadow never been seen. Duno where e shadow run until.
I was a good boy last evening. haha! Yeah, I washed e car. Last time I used to do it very sat. Every since the start of this job, I haven't been doing it. haha!
Anyway, have a great wk.. =D

Looking @ the finer side

2006-11-13T00:02:00.000+08:00

After that was dinner cum supper @ Changing Appetites. Went to this place called Oscars located @ Conrad Hotel. Really nice place to sit down n chit chat.. Had red wine over there. Ok had the company of two beauties. U know who u are. haha! Anyway, went there again last nite, but is with a diff grp of pple. Anyway, that's all for now.. I wanna try n appreciate wine. hahaha! Sounds funnie. Back to my little reading of wine and off to bed.. Bleah.. it's monday again... Have a great wk. For those who ending their exams, hang in there ya.. It's almost over.. =D

Random Blog

2006-11-05T14:17:00.000+08:00

A random quote taken from one of the bloggies that I read. Haven't read for quite a while. Here goes.
"Closure of one door leads to opening of another.
Find the open door and walk in, and don't look back at the closed door.
Cos it won't open for you again"
Anyway, that's all for now. =D

been another wk...

2006-10-29T23:31:00.000+08:00

Hm... couldn't think of anything to blog this wkend. Saturday was fun.. Sunday is boring. haha! Suddenly thought of this word, Coolz. Realised that it is already been taken up. I thinking of buy a domain name. For those who doesn't know what it is it.. is something like www.yourname.com That's what I meant. Thinking of owning one sounds kinda cool. Hm.. anyway, got career fair today.. But was too lazy to go.. Oh well, my resume isn't ready also. Anyway, have a great wk pple. =D

Happiee.....

2006-10-22T14:05:00.000+08:00

Before I carry on with the blog for this wk.. I would like to emphasise that I'm not ::: loh. Anyway, there was crazy thought in me thinking how to prove it. It been another wk. I would say I had fun for the past few days. Yeap. Let's start off with Friday. Went to Vivocity with lsy. There so many shops... remembered quite well is the GAP. Used to wear this GAP t-shirt. Had dinner @ Little White Dog Cafe. The name sounds cute but the food is so-so. Service excellent.. Well would say that they were veri nice to give us a 10% discount for the mistake that they made. Mashed Potato became Wedges. haha!! Anyway, the view was great. It was fun. After which was Zouk. It was super-duper crowded. The enterance fees is expensive, the drinks are expensive and music sucks.. hahah!! But luckily the company was great. Neverthless, it was a great night out knowing so many new pple. Finally got myself to go for that haircut. It was ktv following that. It was the movie "the departed". I find the chinese version is better. It was dinner cum supper. haha! Happening wkend. But a little unhealthy for my wallet. hahah!! Wondering if you have fun last wkend during my absence? Tink i tinking too much ya.. haha!! Anyway, how's everyone's wkend? Hope it was juz as great as mine. =D

Everythings going wrong.. all wrong..

2006-10-16T22:34:00.000+08:00

Been quite a while since I last blogged. Nothing going right for lately.. Everything is just bad. Maybe I should juz keep my mouth shut that all. haha!
Had my graduation ceremony in Sg two weeks ago. The atmosphere isn't around. But neverthless, very grateful for who u know u are who turned up. If not for you, no photos. hahaha! Back to less happy stuff, was kanna backstab by a colleague last wk. Moral of story dun save other pple arse, protect your own. Kick them into that hole. Maybe I'm look nice to bully ya? WTF. Anyway, today another bad day. I admit was my fault, maybe I dun know how to reject. Still young can make mistakes. Old liao then cannot. haha! Think there's part of me, the will is stronger to make a change. As what they say, if you can't change the surrounding, change yourself. I have yet to learn to trust less of other pple especially in working environment. haiz.. I need a change..

I'm confused...

2006-10-01T23:25:00.000+08:00

最近 - 李圣杰
============
你最近不说话
怎麽了为什麽
是不是有什麽事让你不快乐
听说你最近很孤单
有点乱有点慌
可是我却不能够在你的身旁
你想要的
我却不能够给你我全部
我能给的
却又不是你想要拥有的
我们不适合也不想认输
好几次我们抱着彼此都是想要哭
你常解释这样的一切都只是开始
我觉得是所有的一切早就已结束
不想再约束
不要再痛苦
下一次会有更好的情路

爱我却不能给你我全部
我能给的
却又不是你想要拥有的
我们不适合也不想认输
好几次我们抱着彼此都是想要哭
你常解释这样的一切都只是开始
我觉得是所有的一切早就已结束
不想再约束
不要再痛苦
下一次会有更好的情路
这一次我们都能很幸福

That song was on my playlist for the past hr. I'm feeling that now.. haizz...

Investing in Commodities.

2006-09-29T10:44:00.000+08:00

Lots of things to blog lately.. however due to the nature of me.. Prostinating that I don't have time, energy.. I nvr blog it.. Haha! Well, today is a Friday, one must be thinking how come I'm blogging @ this kinda timing (SGD - 10:39AM). Yeap, me wanted a break from office decided to take leave. Would say that the feeling of being on leave is juz great, the working days become shorter. But, I have uncompleted work in office which is due quite a while. Shit! Have to remote in tml or sunday to complete. Had attended this seminar on "investing in commodities" last evening. Been to few seminars before, have noticed the key similarities in many of these seminar. The focal point, I would say is to have a sellable product/knowledge. With one's desire and right knowledge, one is said to be able to excel. I think that's quite true. Bottomline of all the seminar that I have attended is to be financially free. Options trading, sell calls when bearish and sells Puts when Bullish.

Shit collector?

2006-09-12T21:56:00.000+08:00

Well, I have to say I'm not at my best lately. More about today. The worst thing is when something isn't yours, pple pt fingers saying your suppose to solve it. Making it worst telling youu that it's been a week nothing been done. What are you going to do about it. I oni got apart of it last fri evening loh. WTF. Arseholes.. Maybe I look like can take advantage one ah. __|__

But members only started to stroll in after 10.30am. Next was the move, Tokyo Drift. It is the best movie for the month. Yeah, i juz love the drift. haha!

Excuse me, your life is waiting

2006-07-23T22:14:00.000+08:00

Been quite a few weeks since I last blogged. There isn't really super duper lot of stuff to do in office lately. Doesn't really sound good ah. What's the motivation to go to work? Juz for that pay check? Does your job give you the satisfaction? A colleague jus tender couple of weeks ago. He's kinda my role model in office. His leaving makes me think alot lately. Hm.. bought this book, "Excuse me, your life is waiting"? Finally went for run after many moons. Met a cousin also @ the stadium running. Got a headache tis afternoon again. :S Tink I had it last Sunday also. Haiz.. Anyway, that's all folks. =)

The smell of the rain...

2006-07-09T15:48:00.000+08:00

Been having fun this wk. Haven't had much mood to do OT in office / at home thru remote connection. My new lcd tv n theater system has arrived. All the more reasons for me to camp @ home.. haha! Anyway, had 2 ktv sessions this wk. Boy would I say it's great. Maybe the company was good. Talking about that, they veri steady, last minute also managed to get them to meet. haha! Supposed to meet another 2 more friends on friday, ok then one got something other got work. Fly me aeroplane. But luckily still managed to get pple to meet me. haha!

Raining cats n dogs @ the moment, kinda brings me memories of aussie. The Brisbane river always seems so choppy whenever there's a heavy downpour. The park which the kids were having fun while enjoying the slide n swing. I mizz those days when I was there enjoying the view from the balcony or the double rainbow which was seen once. I mizz those time when I was in church. Mizzing one of them, Philip, who was always there on the evening service on Sunday. I mizz those great moments which I had with my mates.

To end of this blog with this song. 枫 - 周杰伦

乌云在我们心里刻下一块阴影
我聆听沉寂已久的心情
清晰透明就像美丽的风景
总在回忆里才看的清
被伤透的心能不能够继续爱我
我用力牵起没温度的双手
过往温柔已经被时间上锁
只剩挥散不去的难过
缓缓掉落的枫叶像思念
我点燃烛火温暖岁末的秋天
极光掠过天边
北风掠过想你的容颜
我把爱烧成了落叶
却换不回熟悉的那张脸
缓缓掉落的枫叶像思念
为何挽回要赶在冬天来之前
爱你穿越时间
两行来自秋末的眼泪
让爱渗透了地面
我要的只是你在我身边
被伤透的心能不能够继续爱我
我用力牵起没温度的双手
过往温柔已经被时间上锁
只剩挥散不去的难过
在山腰间飘逸的红雨
随著北风凋零我轻轻摇曳风铃
想唤醒被遗弃的爱情
雪花已铺满了地
深怕窗外枫叶已结成冰

Standing. Always good to know where u stand

2006-06-28T23:58:00.000+08:00

Alright been quite a while since I blogged. Thou it's so late already. Decided to blog this. How u like my tagline? Anyway, found my standing once again. Not even on the list I can say. Disappointment that nvr meant anything. Looking a different perspective, one will say that it's great. Been quite a while since I talked about, well friend decided to bring it up. The intentions were good I know. Same as in work place, ur standing is important. If your smart that's fine. If you work hard, pple don't see it that's bad. If you work smart and pple notice it, that's fine. So what are you. Working hard or working smart?

Well, what's more to say. Hm.. that's I got something which needs to be done. Die. Almost one I still doing office work. -___-

Still alive and kicking..

For those who think that everythings back to normal... I'm sorry but it isn't. I have already decided on a birthday wish for tis year. The wish is opposite of being nice. I heard that if u say e real one it will not happen. Anyway, I said opp isn't that bad right. Disappointments and finally all the true colors come out. Anyway, there isn't much more to say right. Disappointment is all I can say...

Nothing went right...

2006-05-01T23:23:00.000+08:00

Probably for those who knows e first part.. there a second part that went on ltr tis afternoon. Not in the mood to blog about it. That's all for me for now. Sorry for no blogs this wk. Meanwhile, leave me alone.. Out for now... Probably when my life is back to normal that I shall come back here to blog.

So much things for me to do, don't even have time to send emails to all those in the "mailing list". haha! When back office ytd to complete some stuff. It's not completed totally, but the main logic is done! Been stressing over the holiday about it too. Last 2 wks for me been alright for me... Still some stuff which I'm still unsure on how to go about. Not sure if what I'm doing is correct or not. Maybe in end, there's no right or wrong. Juz the judgement call during that point in time.

Hm.. for those having exams round the corner, GOod luck!

Hm... Lots of thinking on my way back. Maybe shouldn't have saw stuff which I accidently saw today. Yes I know what you tinking is not porn. Anyway, maybe a change in taste might be good. Been a very busy week. Wed nite having the prom nite for tis yr batch of ICTians. Anyway, been an honour to be invited. But I find the turn out wasn't as good as what I expected. Well, the food is almost the same as what I had a couple of years back. Well, I tink I kinda under dressed other nite. Maybe it's time to get suit for occasions like this.

Hm, meet a couple of poly friends for dinner earlier. The food @ Sakura was quite ok lah.. Managed to eat till they close.. haha! That's all for now.. Dun feel like blogging @ tis pt.

A change in my life...

I need another miracle...

2006-03-04T00:57:00.000+08:00

I really duno how to blog this down.. For those who tink I have accepted the job offer.. In plain I din, long story... It's kinda hard to blog it down... There is this part of me which isn't really looking that salary. On the other hand, maybe it is just another painful experience which I have encounted. Well, looks like I have to re-start to send my resumes again. The dark clouds are here again.. Everything seems so bleak.. I have to admit that I ain focused on what I want. In other aspect of life, I know what I want. But for the job one, I'm still lost. So many things I feel like accomplishing, maybe deadline for one must be set else will only be a wish. I need a miracle.

Small weekend gathering

2006-02-28T16:54:00.000+08:00

Hm.. suddenly felt like bloggin. The feeling of disillusioned is in me.. haha! I haven't got job.. see I din use the word career. So much uncertainty I feel. Been feeling so lazy n tired of job hunting that I only send out 1 today. Maybe the job-hunting process, is tiring that I got this feeling of going back aussie for further education. haha!! Don't be surprised if I said I'm having some thoughts of going back for masters. haha! Maybe go back for Masters in Business Administration that kinda ba. Not sure if I want to do an honours prog in IT. Well, juz some updates, Tml got second interview in ST-info-software system last time was know in SES. Anyway, kinda feeling worried thou. haha!

Only those that I found were shareware and to be purchased. Will include a pic of it in the end of the blog.

How bad can it be..

2006-02-10T22:20:00.000+08:00

Summary of the wk.. Someone gave me a treat to the movies last wkend. haha! I thought the movie overall wasn't too bad. It was "Memoirs of a Geisha". Wanted to catch it @ GV Plaza but there was only the front row seats by the time we got there. End up having to watch @ Yishun. Well, I was only home @ 5am that morning. Had Ktv n supper with poly friends e nite be4. Anyway, the movie was good so was e company. What's next.. hm... Rejected one job offer.. Feeling kinda regretted doing that. Haiz. Meanwhile, I kinda sick of everyday massively sending out resume. Kinda taking a break for these 2 days. Shouldn't have done something which I did today.. Anyway, i tink i kinda blew my chances for it liao. Haiz! What were u tinking.. it related to a job lah =P Juz felt so shitty about the whole thing, that was a gamble which I took! Maybe is the process of finding which is kinda tiring. Anyway, was supposed to have recieve the official letter but haven't arrive.. Can't wait for my new toy to arrive.(",)

Public holidays are over...

2006-01-31T23:16:00.000+08:00

The Chinese New Year holidays are over at this point in time. Hope all the readers had a great time. Hm.. i juz din quite like the CNY eve. Well, lots of cleaning up to do. Think I broke my previous record in accomplishing the number of tasks. Well the day started when I woke up at 11plus.. hehe!! Then started to paint finish e other side of the gate. Followed by washing the balcony, next washing both cars. After that was washing the car poach.. then it was polishing one of it! Well, that took me almost the rest of the day. haha!

The past few days for me were rather routine. Year in year out, my relativies would come over for lunch on the second day. Well, I kinda like the interaction part which I haven't got lots of chances to meet up with my cousins.. As for my case, unless there is big occasion or cny else I don't go house visiting. It's also a chance for me to get to know how well my cousins or uncles are getting better each year. Well one things for sure.. Rolling funds were topic for the day. haha!! So much chim terms which I'm sure it's oni applicable after I have repay my debts. haha!! Well the bottom line will still be increasing ur assets n reducing liabilities.

Back to a friend's blog on what's are simple pleasures in life n what does that mean? For me if depends.. One could be juz meeting up with a close friend or friend whom I haven't seen for quite a while prob over coffee or tea, catching back old times. Another could be juz lazying around *which I seemed to be doing it rather often ever since I came back* haha! Well, another could be juz hanging around some friends for ktv / supper. Or maybe would be juz doing some stuff which I have done in the past. (",)

Topic for the week -> COE price, cars...

2006-01-23T00:43:00.000+08:00

Hm... last wk busy with many stuff.. Managed to meet up with Peter @ HarbourFront other day. Well, not much big difference from the last time I saw him. Probably his hair abit longer ba. Hm.. managed to meet up with Noel in the beginning of the week, saw Henry on the NE line the veri same day.

The greatest achievement for this week would be spending my saturday painting the house again. Almost done, juz need another 3-man hrs of hardwork. whaha! Have to get it up by Friday.. haha! Chinese new year is around the corner but I'm not really looking forward to it. Guess maybe it's becuz I'm jobless. haha!! I juz dun like my relatives to ask, so found a job liao? Even then isn't much of ur prob right? Still remembered this period last yr, when I was busy preparing my stuff n meeting up friends before going over.

Anyway, went to Borneo's Motor ytd. Yup, there was this big huge crowd over there. For those who dun know, COE prices have dipped to an all time low, below 10k for all categories. Those were the days when COE prices were as high as 20k plus. I still remembered when my parents bought the corolla which was back then was @ 80k plus. haha!! Now a Vios is selling only at 44k including COE. Well, when's my turn to get my own car? I still remembered that there was an occasion which my housemates n I were having a general topic on buying cars in sg at that point. I recalled saying 44k @ that time can get a Hyndai Accent but now I can get a Toyota Vios @ that price. However, passing by Ubi, I could sense that not all cars are that sellable.. Can see from the no. of crowd, one can roughly make a guess on the upcoming COE bidding. Juz out of curiousity, found out that Vios is a latin name which stands for "to move forward". In anycase, the depreciation rate for Vios for the current price is set to be only approx 4k per year. You still get back 6k plus for scrapped value @ e end of 10yrs. Well, one factor to consider while buying a car is the amount of loan to be taken. Juz some extra info, the interest rate set by most of the banks is pegged at 3%. That means to say for a loan of 20k to be repaid in 1 yr, that would have cost you a 600 bucks for interest. Other stuff to take into consideration would be road tax and insurance. For those interested in larger version, check out Toyota Altis -> approx 54k.

Well, the prices for both the Toyota Vios and Nissan Sunny are so competatitive. The Nissan sunny which is 1.6 is actually going at almost same price as Vios which is 1.5. Couldn't find any comparison between both engines. Anyway, that's all for tis wk topic.

Advance Happy Chinese New Year to all readers celebrating cny. For those who ain celebrating cny, Happy Holidays. Woof Woof..(",)

Insomia...

2006-01-17T02:38:00.000+08:00

Another wk has juz whizzed passed. There wasn't much accomplished last week. It was probably the game which told my time away. Kinda old game, "Rise of Nations." But kinda entertained me a couple of days.

I'm still not too sure if I want to be on network or s/w side. Kinda hard to choose at the moment. Maybe both not really my expertise. I'm neither here nor there.. Jialet! Anyway, juz apply is the words to use.

Well, guess it's time of the year to shop shop shop.. haha! Can't really feel the festive mood. Maybe nothing much has been accomplished ever since I came back from brisb. Room still as messy. haha! Saw this nice looking Braun Buffel document back at a couple of places on sat. Looks great, price also very great. haha!! Starts with 3 n has 3 digits in total. Not as kua zhang as the Dunhill one which I saw, 4 digits.. haha! Siao over 1k for a document bag. Anyway, it din really look that exp. haha! Anyway, after a day of fun. It was work the next day. Sunday. Well, busy painting the living room. Having different tones on wall. Well, maybe is the makeup, like new hairstyle.

Been having too many things on the mind lately. The report and sis stuff and my own stuff. haha! I had trouble falling asleep last nite. Anyway, all thanks to Dad, that super long report was finally finished, vetted. She drop me an sms regarding it other day, was so cute.. Saying her report was piece of shit. (Suddenly it seemed so familar).. haha! Anyway, I was juz too busy to entertain her.

Any other news: Hope this wk everything goes smoothly ;) Wish me luck!
A Uni friend spoke to me that he same pri sch as u. If u know bryan.. haha! Well, that's all. (",)

King Long

2006-01-10T12:16:00.000+08:00

Yeap, went to catch "King Kong" last nite, it was kinda long but on the plot was rather interesting. The moral of movie is "Animals also have feeling what abt human?" That's was what she said, kinda true thou. That reminds me to not to pay by credit the next time I get the tickets, cuz my card was rejected by the AXS machine. Took a stroll back from Serangoon interchange back to my place(near Bowen Sec) Haha!! Amazed that I could walk that far. Stopped by the other roti prata stall which I decided to get my dinner cum supper.

I'm kinda doing other stuff this couple of days instead of finding a job. Seems like doing everyone elses stuff. I have been like running late this couple of wks. The other nite met up the with aussie gang, which I was late as well. haha! As usual. Seeing them reminds me of good times we had in aussie. It's time for me to move on in life.

Attended the "Teaching as a career seminar" the other day. Found out that there were pple frm all walks of life. Comes to tink abt it? Can I mould the future? Teaching is a profession which u will touch the lives of others. It is really abt the intangible benefits. If I'm tinking of applying it, it's time to brush up my language.

Ministry of Sound

2006-01-07T00:25:00.000+08:00

Yeash.. Finally went there to see it for myself.. At least I find it was much better than club Momo. Maybe it's because of group of pple ba. Well done guys n gals for making it that nite. haha!! I went on Wednesday, ladies nite. Din know there was an express queue for ladies or would I say ladies dun need to q @ all. Anywway, the place on the whole isn't too bad. Got different rooms with different themes.. haha!! The R&B one is kinda too packed. Some a couple of familar faces over there.. Verdict for MoS -> good but drinks kinda exp.

I had a little too much that nite.. Went back to poly for visit a lecturer. Think the whole world is trying to intro gals to me.. Haha!! Anyway, have a great wkend pple. (",)

New Year Resolutions...

2006-01-02T02:07:00.000+08:00

2 bloggies for 1 nite. Came across a friend's blog abt new yr resolutions. Tinking abt what I should have for this yr. Actually is not one one that wrote abt resolutions, I was another one more who wrote abt it.. Ron thanks for mentioning abt the ipod mini. It's still feels a little sore hor..

I tink my last year resolution was to spend more time with family.. or was it previous yr. I remembered last year I was @ boon keng there, counting down to the new year. Tinking that in aus, things can get moving n blah blah blah. Nvr thought that came back with diff set of thinking. Maybe is not the thinking, is the management. Or was it will power. Anyway, it's time to have new set of resolutions?

1) More time with family? (how to quantify?)
2) To be more understanding? (towards pple around me? measurement?)
3) Controlling of my temper? (me got temper one hor..)
4) Clear debts? (poly sch fees to pay, uni fees? -> set up chuaq's foundation-
> donations accepted)
5) (Time needed?)
6) Cut down on procrastination (something which I seriously tink I need)

Well, first of all some will only be done when I got a job.. hahaha! Have a great wk ahead pple.. (",)

It's a brand new yr... Is it a brand new start?

2006-01-02T01:00:00.000+08:00

Ok been a while since last blog. Well won't say there was much socalising this wk. Kinda anti-social for the beginning wk thou. Yup. Anway, the wkend was great. Met up relativies e other nite, found out my little cousins many of them have already reached my height. Haha! Anyway, time flies. It was then when I was juz ready to embark on new journey, to place which I tot I would like to get it done over with. *Australia*. But now, haiz. I broke my record, tink I caught almost 3 matches of soccer last nite.. haha!!! -_=

Anyway, Chinese new yr is around the corner, yeap. Shopping... Heaps of shopping. Erm do I sound like an auntie? Haha! Actually, more for interview wear cum chinese new yr. I find that I dun tink as much as last time when I buy stuff.. haha! Maybe less choosey ba.. :D

原来喜欢和不喜欢只在一线之差

2005-12-28T02:53:00.000+08:00

Recalled seeing tis in a friend's blog..decided to use it.. 原来喜欢和不喜欢只在一线之差
Well.. G2000 having sales, some retail therapy. It always works for me. Had a hair cut too! That's all..

The strength of my soul

2005-12-27T00:13:00.000+08:00

Last week was a rather busy for me.. Busy meeting pple. Thanks to all those who took time to meet. It's always nice to meet up with old friends. Really appreciated it. I would say it kinda an achievement to meet up so many juz e past wk. People may change but I guess friendship will always be there.

Went to Club Momo on Friday nite. I was actually more interested in Ministry of Sound, wanted to see how's e atmosphere. Anyway, thanks for the nite. (",)

Many things happened during the wk, maybe I should have seen it coming along, juz that I din want to face it. It's been my fault to mislead. I wasn't too prepared for it. Maybe time changes one, but feelings will be there? Maybe what I need is time. There is this bit of sadness in me. The feeling of lost... Where's the strength of my soul?

A quick entry to get thru a saturday....

2005-12-17T17:27:00.000+08:00

Been thinking tis few days abt everything.. Everything in my life. I was on the bus ytd on the way to Sim Lim.. I suddenly felt disgusted by pple actions on the bus, drivers n so on... Got this distance feeling. I had a short talk with my mom regarding the idea of getting PR over @ Australia. There's isn't much to hold me back over here other than my family and some friends. Both my parents were unreceptive to the idea. I gave it lots of thoughts thou..

Anyway, meet a couple of army specs last nite. Yeah, had a great time with them. Managed to get a drink @ Clarke Quay area. The "Ministry of Sound" had a launch last nite. Din managed to go in. The crowd @ Hooters are rather old. :$

I miss brisbane! Can't believe first wkend, alr pple putting me aeroplane. Dammit!

A penny for a thought -> I dislike pple giving me lame excuses. Too bad I have to say it. Try to come out with some smarter answers! If anyone reading this feels offended, that's ur problem not mine.

Back to reality

2005-12-15T17:43:00.000+08:00

Yup, I'm finally back in sunny singapore once again. I won't say it was short or long. Having mixed feelings as I type this entry. Been quite a while since I blogged. I was busy @ Tas than came back busy with touring around Brisbane, Sunshine coast, graduation ceremony n cleaning of apartment that kinda stuff. Will backtrack those entries later. There's this feeling of being lost. The place where I used to call home now seemed different. I meant sg not my house. Probably the cultural shock which I wasn't quite prepared I guess.

There's this cute incident on the A380 plane back to sg. There was this air stewardess who asked me if I would like to have any more drinks.. Which I was so used to assusie style which I said something like i'm cool.. it was interpreted as coke!! She followed by saying would u like ice? haha!! Anyway, the situation was funny.

Brisbane which I called my home for 10 good mths is officially over. Yeap, I have to agree I had a taste of joy, laugher and sadness and tears over there. It's a journey which will follow me the rest of my life. I remembered @ the convocation which one of the speakers actually said, "one wouldn't have made it without the support and encouragement of family, relatives and friends." Yup, many thanks to all those who encouraged n supported me in anyway during my stay in aussie.. Not to mentioned those who helped me during the difficult period of during my stay. Think the list will get too long if mentioned. haha!

The next chapter of my life begins from here.. What are my goals? What I want in life? Time for me to ponder. I shall now leave u readers will a qn.. What lies ahead of u? (",)

Been up to the last few days..

2005-11-29T23:09:00.000+08:00

I been trying to pack my stuff for tas trip ytd.. Plus washing of curtains.. Got quite a fair bit of stuff to clean up.. Ytd went to watch movie @ southbank with usual pple plus guen.. Probably my expectation of the movie was much more as a result kinda disappointed.. As I would be away for over a wk to tas and bringing my parents n sis around.. It would prob meant that I wouldn't have much time to clean up the apartment. That's y I kinda started earlier so as not 2 tax my housemates.. At least I do my fair bit. Currently @ A's place as I would be going to airport ltr.. so it makes more sense for me to slp over here... Juz went Ktv with them plus Shawna(kevin's friend). I would say that Fat Louise isn't as good as e usual one in Sunnybank. Results coming out soon.. haizz.. Kinda worried.. haha!! That's all for to9. Will be away from 1st Dec til 7th Dec.. Till than.. Hope to see ya all soon?(",)

Still alive...

2005-11-27T15:37:00.000+08:00

I'm still alive. Actually i wrote this blog earlier today... But becuz of some exception error of my lappy, that it crashed. Kinda forgot what I wanted to write.. After exams, there isn't much stuff for me to focus on. It's like kinda lost.. Been busy all this while haven't really had the chance to sit down n tink abt stuff.. Where's my focal point? haha! *Sounds so familar*

20th Nov
Went to DFO.. Similar to harbourtown except that it is air-conditioned. Went to sunnybank for dinner. In my opinion, kinda prefered DFO cuz more stuff to my liking as compared to harbourtown.. Managed to get some stuff from there..

21st Nov
Went t Harbourtown and Surfers paradise.. It's kinda busy over @ Surfers Paradise cuz it's Schoolie's wk... All the kiddies graduating have a wk of fun over there. I remembered a friend telling me abt it... describing the kiddies over there as raging hormones.. hahaha!

2005-11-12T16:38:00.000+08:00

Quick ask me abt Info Security... Even is not asked I still say.. I feeling f!!! abt it, reason, I ran short of time completing the paper.. I wouldn't say it a really tough paper, a little tricky thou. Spent too much time on the MCQ. Yah right.. always e case.. shit! Let's put hands together hope that there's a miracle for me to get a distinction.. haha!

Candy has left...

2005-11-06T08:32:00.000+08:00

Juz sent her off to e airport last nite. Although din really know her for a long time... Yeah, we had fun times n sad times together but been a journey for me as well.. Her music, singing in church or ktv, the little chats or dinner.. Her music is kinda inspirational for me....
I actually dun really like the feeling of sending pple off to the airport thou... there will always little sadness in me.. Maybe that's juz me. She was supposed to have her flight on Monday but due to some stuff which cropped up delayed her flight. Maybe someday will meet, I hope. Maybe not in SG, prob Hong Kong or other parts of the world? R&A did such a good job of making a photo album n video of all of us.. The story of all of us.. e sleepness nites they had.. Ooowww! So sweet lah. She is this independent woman who kinda left a deep impression on me. I'm sure God has his plans for her, so till than..it's not Goodbye forever, it's juz bye for now. (",)

Eventful wkend...

2005-11-02T15:58:00.000+08:00

Somehow there's this tiny bit of sadness within me @ e moment. All those pple I know or closer to me will be away end of this mth. Kevin, Ron & Angela going to New Zealand on 19th. Edwin flying back on 19th also.. Rina flying back on 20th. Noel n Siew Szi flying back on 23rd. Well, look like I'll be all alone on 23rd onwards till 30th? Haizz..

(Tues)
Anyway, juz had a bbq earlier @ Rina's new place @ Holland Park. Rather nice townhouse, kinda reminded me of those resort (something like Government Chalet for Division A or B.) The BBQ was a last minute one... but nice.

(Mon)
Ytd -> Went to Stuart's place to get "House Md" series. Had a couple of glasses of Red Wine. His place also facing the Brisbane River, but twice e size of my place. And his place kind reminded me of Server rooms.. haha!

(Sun)
Went to church in e late afternoon. It was Candy's last time singing @ that church. The reflection song was rather sad thou.

(Sat)
My proj grp mates came over for Pizzas n Beer. Ok lah.. sort of closing celebration. Prob might be e last time, I hopping for another one more party juz after the exams.

(Fri)
It was the last day of sch. After the csse3004 lecture, went to Red Room with my housemates n their groupmates.. Haha! Kinda interesting cuz it's like a pub within Uni. haha!

2005-10-24T15:40:00.000+08:00

Hm...had quite a lot of drinks that nite... But they are really fun pple, more like party animals.. hahaha! The group is like getting bigger and bigger lah.. Now have to call for a maxi cab n additional one more cab.. hahaha! But I tink I should hang my chiong clothes in the closet ah.... It's almost coming to the end of the Semester already.. Looking forward?

Feeling offensive

2005-10-21T08:38:00.000+08:00

Yup.. That's what I'm currently feeling. First of all, I hate when pple arrow me to do stuff. I dun mind doing abit of it... if ur trying to push the reminder of stuff to me.. You can jolly well see my color. Hey.. Mr nice guy isn't here anymore. FYI, you can jolly well arrow someone else to do. I'm really kinda been nice that I said I helped out part of it. I can't believe I been arrowed for next wk task as well!! After hearing about what other groups members have said about their own group. I kinda feeling abit sore abit. It's not under my scope. It's the job of the project manager. A total of 2 points to be covered in tml presentation, 1st point n introduction I had already did it, juz need abit of alteration that all. And someone comes and tell me say if u dun mind, can cover the summary as well as another portion of it and "I'll edit your bit". Hey, I do mind okie.. U juz have to tidy part of my stuff and job done! Yeah right. -__-

I had a group demo ytd late afternoon for SOA. One of the worst planned demo. It ran overtime. Some groups din had the chance to demo tis wk. Some students were being quite offensive.. besides emails regarding the lecturer were sent to the dean as well. Well, students here knows their rights. I tink that's something which uni students in sg won't do @ all. Would a uni student studying in sg fire back @ e lecturer? haha! Veri doubtful. Think sg education system won't be able to produce this kinda of students.. haha. Trust me.. It works here. But it's kinda sad that students in that course isn't really giving him some face. The funni part, we saw him @ Little Tapei, in Sunnybank in the evening. Last nite was rather fun thou.. hehe!

The wkend juz flew...Comments pls..

2005-10-18T00:00:00.000+08:00

The SOA assignment was due earlier during the day.. Abt it, too many things related to it. I tink I displayed abit of temper last nite.. haha! Anyway, nothing much abt it to say abt too. Anyway, had a chat earlier with someone.. Thou shall not say who. Same words were said once again. I was like maybe it's time that I give it more thoughts. Am I nice? too nice? overly nice? Comments pls?

Duno what to write.

2005-10-16T18:15:00.000+08:00

Been neglecting my blog for sometime already. So many stuff happening around, maybe I juz abit to lazy to put everything down. Been on my mind for quite some time liao, as the days goes closer to Novemeber, the feelings is mixed. I duno if to feel happy abt it or not? Duno what to write now... I was abit shocked about some decision made by someone.. I dun know if I should proceed.. Probably will give it thoughts some thoughts after Monday... Cheers, Enjoy e wkend.. "_"

Back track to a wk ago.

2005-10-09T13:29:00.000+08:00

Been ages since I last blogged. Been busy with lots of stuff lately. Last wk busy with network assignment. And had a good chat with someone quite no. of nites be4. Well, there were two lines which strike me. It like really hit me in it.. Even thou wasn't really said but it was.. It was like the song "Killing me softly"
Extracted part of it...

Killing me softly with his song,
Killing me softly with his song,
Telling my whole life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song.
I felt all flushed with fever,
Embarrassed by the crowd,
I felt he found my letters and read each one out loud.
I prayed that he would finish,
But he just kept right on strumming my pain with his fingers,
Singing my life with his words,

Well.. Anyway, so many assignments on hand as well..

What can I do to make it up?

2005-09-28T19:00:00.000+08:00

Juz feeling a little lazy to blog.. So many stuff over the wkend n the past two days.. Also duno where to start frm. Fri - qld roars vs sydney something football held @ suncorp stadium. Wasn't too bad juz that the qld lost. Sat evening was Candy's concert. Been like meeting her so frequently tis few days also. Earlier had movie, dinner n ktv. Power singers they all are especially Candy.
Anyway, someone juz din give e me chance to apologise. Ytd, I already tried once. Today, I tried twice. Well, measures which tat person took was so serious lah. Maybe time is all we need. What more can I say...

A prayer for the stressed.. whaha!

A sweet dream...

2005-09-13T14:59:00.000+08:00

Hm... what's up on a Monday.. I had this dream last nite, was so sweet. Pls note that it's not a wet dream, is a sweet dream. Details of it shan be disclose as it's only a dream. I woke up tis morning, to e sound of the alarm of my hp only to find that it was oni a dream. I was like "pondering to myself that huh oni a dream haiz, tot was reality". It kinda made me not wanting to get up off bed, to carry on with that dream. haha!! It may seem funny but I haven't had a good dream or sweet dream for ages.

The past wk was busy for me. I was practically in uni till 9pm each day. Even on sat n sun I also went back.. I came back in e evening of sat. There was tis urge in me to get a drink. Need that drink. I was initially tinking of getting it @ RE which is rather near my place, but tinking of the fact that I have to walk back I thought abt it twice. haha! Decided to chio Angela to for a drink, told her if she wanted to meet @ city. Juz nice, Rina haven't board her bus back to her place. Finally we had our coffee session, although I was e only one out of the four who din have coffee. This was the first time that we nvr go chiong when meeting so late. I wanted to post up the pics taken that nite..but din look too good in it. Anyway, time flies, was like soon 2am than.. By e time I was home, it was nearly 3am and I had a meeting @ 11am next morning(sunday) and my mcq mid term exam was oni 1/3 thru.. Well, maybe it was the few hrs which I needed to escape from reality. After the 2 drinks, the effects started to set in. But it worn out after we had supper @ tis Magic kebarb or something like tat..

First time after so many consecutive wks which that I din go to church. Somehow it seemed weird not having to hear Candy's voice n playing of the piano or maybe the walking up of that slope. Maybe the pple are more friendly n real in there ba (juz my perception). The mid term examination wasn't too bad after all. That's all for to9. Other news.. My M1 sim card is lost, so pple frm SG, msg me when I'm back in SG prob later part of Dec. Dates to be confirmed again.
Anyway, Good nitez & sweet dreamz ;)

Stress level on e rise...

2005-09-05T16:35:00.000+08:00

Feeling kinda lost @ e moment. The programming in MVC model is kinda killing me softly. Things were so much simplier w/o it lah. Been hanging around uni even on wkend. Kinda pathetic but what to do..Too much stuff need to be done. The river festival was great. A good 30min of fireworks display stretching from Hitachi buiding to Casino Towers to QUT building followed by the bridge over the other side. The crowd kinda reminded me of NDP back in SG. It was great, managed to find Kelvin in the crowd. All thanks to Edwin. Candy going back to hk or somewhere for record promo. She's tis wonderful piano player n singer @ Church. Well.. that's all for now till than..... Take Care, Good nite and Have a wonderful wk. ;)

No inspiration...

2005-09-04T06:40:00.000+08:00

What's with this entry.. First, I have no inspiration for doing the individual component which I needed to finish in few wks times. The servlet knows me but i doesn't know it.. haha! How?? Haizz. Tink the camping in uni days are here to stay. Next news, around the house.. my toppid stove has cracked again. Shit! Can't believe it, is 2nd time liao.

Other news.. Hm.. there is tis gal in one of the module which I'm taking tat looks abit like a particular gal whom I knew. Probably tis gal looked like her 2yrs back. I would say the matching rate is around 80%. haha! Saw her in my lab session ytd. More details abt this gal, she drives. Hey..I'm not dreaming okie! Too bad no pic of her.. Anyway, dun tink is legal to post it as well, else it will seem like I stalking pple. Brings me to next pt, wat if someday as u were walking along the road, u see this person which looks abit like u?

Quick blog to get thru a monday...

2005-08-30T10:22:00.000+08:00

Well, it's a Monday. I find many pple whom I know doesn't really like Monday. Mainly becuz of Monday blues.. hehe! Anyway, stumbled @ a friend's blog site.. decide to copy it. Not considered as plagiarism right. (taken frm Raine's blog @ friendster)

"As Long As There Is Hope, One Shall Never Lost Faith.

However When One Has Already Give All That He Can,

It's Time to Let Nature Take Over"

So come to the topic.. is there still hope?
Find this rather interesting. Anyway, find that nicks on my msn can be rather informative as well. Kinda keep me update of the things around me and blah blah blah. One of which is abt Comex coming to SG end of tis wk. ;)

Trusted Computing Platform Alliance!

2005-08-26T15:16:00.000+08:00

Another wk is coming to an end. Firstly, I should be rushing the toppid essay on Trusted Computing Platform alliance. It isn't due till end of next wk, but I still some other shitty assignments stuff on hand as well. I was toking to a project mate regarding another java assignment concerning about "server sockets", to what I found out, he did the assignment in 2 hrs. He's seriously one hardcore programmer. After interacting with him for past few mths, I seriously find that Ngee Ann Poly's IT really cover stuff rather superficially as compared to TP's IT. Our final project is sort of their practical! -__- No wonder I'm having a hard time with these stuff. Well, comes to blogs I have to much ideas to write about. It's mainly because of my thoughts and stuff... Comes to essay not my idea so not much idea on it. Haha! Enough of procrastination... Enjoy the wkend!

Procrastinator

2005-08-21T13:38:00.000+08:00

I have to agree that I'm a procastinator. For those who dun know e meaning is "To put off doing something, especially out of habitual carelessness or laziness" - taken from dictionary.com Haha! Finally i decided to do something abt the address list in my hotmail acc. Always tinking of updating it, but juz din make it a point to edit and change it. But the toppid thing is that after new groups, it sort of messed up my contacts in my msn as well. Back to square 1. Haha! Found another way round it. A friend of mine came down frm sg juz other day. It's nice to hear that someone out there actually do bother. Not say others dun, juz that the sometimes in life probably one shouldn't have too much expectation of others. Anyway, had dinner n drink w him last nite. Tinking of the good old times we had when we were much younger. Everything were much simpler than. I remember last time when we used to play badminton by the drain next to his place. It was covered after there was a flood back during the late 80 to early 90s (Can't exactly remember when was it, only knew that it was during one of those PSLE marking days). Back to reality...

Saw this website in one of my emails, probably send many mths back. haha!

MY MOOD ANALYSIS TEST RESULTS
At this particular time you are feeling the results of extreme stress and you are seeking a 'way out' but you are pushing too hard. Obviously you need peace, tranquility and contentment. Your temperament is such that you are hoping, unrealistically perhaps, that your desires will shortly be fulfilled (even if at this time you are not quite sure what those true aspirations may be!).

You don't feel as if you can go it on your own anymore. You don't want to be taken for granted. You need to be recognized as a 'caring person' and it could be that you are searching to establish a relationship, not necessarily with someone new, but with that someone special who could feel the same way as you do.

Nothing seems to be going right for you and you are thwarted every way you turn. You are not at all happy with the situation but it would appear that there is very little that you can do about it at this time. Sit back and let the situation take its course, because at this time you feel that there is nothing you can do to change whatever needs to be changed.

You are pretending that the situation around you doesn't matter, but the effort of trying to conceal your emotions and anxieties is resulting in untold stress. The existing situation is disagreeable. You feel unwanted and lonely and you would really like to associate with someone whose ideals are as high as your own. You want to be above the standard of mediocrity and this need to be needed and that need to need has almost become an obsession. You are trying to magnify the need into a compelling urge. You would really like to tell the world how great you are but no, you are holding back because you feel that your peers may treat you with contempt. This is a great pity because you have in fact a unique quality of character, but the continual restraint that you impose on yourself makes you suppress this need for others and you pretend you don't really care. You treat those who criticise you with contempt. However, to be honest, beneath this assumption of indifference you really long for the approval and esteem of others.

You would like to be respected and valued for yourself and this can only be achieved from within a close and harmonious relationship.

Feeling lost in ASSignments

2005-08-15T17:12:00.000+08:00

Anyway, this song came into my mind earlier. Not sure if u pple have heard it be4, "Always" by Bon Jovi. One of favourites in the past.

Song Title: Always
Album: Cross Road
Artist: Bon Jovi

This romeo is bleeding
But you can't see his blood
It's nothing but some feelings
That this old dog kicked up

It's been raining since you left me
Now i'm drowning in the flood
You see i've always been a fighter
But without you i give up

Now i can't sing a love song
Like the way it's meant to be
Well, i guess i'm not that good anymore
But baby, that's just me

And i will love you, baby - always
And i'll be there forever and a day - always
I'll be there till the stars don't shine
Till the heavens burst and
The words don't rhyme
And i know when i die, you'll be on my mind
And i'll love you - always

Now your pictures that you left behind
Are just memories of a different life
Some that made us laugh, some that made us cry
One that made you have to say goodbye
What i'd give to run my fingers through your hair
To touch your lips, to hold you near
When you say your prayers try to understand

I've made mistakes, i'm just a man

When he holds you close, when he pulls you near
When he says the words you've been needing to hear
I'll wish i was him 'cause those words are mine
To say to you till the end of time

Yeah, i will love you baby - always
And i'll be there forever and a day - always

If you told me to cry for you
I could
If you told me to die for you
I would
Take a look at my face
There's no price i won't pay
To say these words to you

Well, there ain't no luck
In these loaded dice
But baby if you give me just one more try
We can pack up our old dreams
And our old lives
We'll find a place where the sun still shines

And i will love you, baby - always
And i'll be there forever and a day - always
I'll be there till the stars don't shine
Till the heavens burst and
The words don't rhyme
And i know when i die, you'll be on my mind
And i'll love you - always

Pic of me @ Three Monkeys

2005-08-12T04:20:00.000+08:00

Found this rather interesting pic in my recieved folder. I was browsing thru it last nite, found many interesting pics in it, memories.. I thought tis pic seems rather interesting. No editing was done @ all.

Decided to take down the earlier post

2005-08-01T12:51:00.000+08:00

I seriously thank all readers for their concern. Especially to someone who I shall not mentioned. If u happened to read it, something which u said kinda struck me. "That was that not to make pple in sg worried for me and blah blah blah...." the idea is there, not exactly the exact words. haha! Million of thanks! Dun tink my dad reads my blog else he will kill me for the following sentence. Retail therapy wasn't too bad after all.

Everything suddenly seemed complicated

2005-07-17T15:10:00.000+08:00

Everything suddenly seemed to be complicated, maybe I viewed it simple. I was wronged, so wrong. The holidays will be over in a wk. I wouldn't say that I ain't looking forward to it. Holidays were supposed to a happy thing. But after so many things happened from the start to end of it, I juz wished to say that the holiday juz sucked! Prob I should have juz flew back to SG. Due the wide readers reading this, some issues I won't disclose. The car accident made a changed in me and a couple of other events that happened to me during the whole break.

Looking @ things frm different point of view?

2005-07-07T14:56:00.000+08:00

I haven't been blogging lately, as been rather busy with friends frm SG, so have to bring them around. The trip to melb wasn't really that great trip. Too many "interesting" things happened over there, thou shall not mentioned too much. I juz felt that things isn't going to well. Maybe is the way how I handled things. So much things to say, but juz seemed difficult write in the blog. I have learnt to look @ things from a different light. Anyway, I'll be going over to Sydney tis coming Saturday till Tuesday. My results were out earlier this morning, juz felt that isn't satisfactory. There will be room for improvement. (",)
