life's a one way road

Sunday, December 31, 2006

Today marks the end of 2006 and another year has just whizzed by. It doesn't seem too long before that it was just the start of 2006 where i was happily preparing to set foot into Svierge. I guess the best part of the preparation comes from the shopping for winter clothes.. like for the first time i can buy all the furry coats on sale. lalala....
Couple of hours before the year ends... n a couple of hours before my friends head over... so i shall do my reflections of the year now....
so 2006. started the year with the resolution that i will heal n be a happy gal. (checked). so it's pretty much a milestone year. Year started with me making use of my passport to freedom. Off to Svierge. It's an experience that I will remember for a lifetime. My first trip out of the country ALONE. My first extended stay away from home. It was a great learning experience n self-discovery. glad to haf made all the pple i've met. N esp; the Singaporeans there. It's been great knowing all of u... n all our 'grow fat escapades'.
Exchange made me see a lot of side of things n life that I wouldn't have noticed if i live in this lil comfort zone of mine. Travelling was woohooo... The backpack trip of my lifetime... I wouldn't mind if i had another chance at it... :P Had fun with my travel buddies... Never travelled so much lah... N now that makes me the cities n country expert in the office... well for europe niah lah... HAhaha... Wish i could travel once again... Lalala....
And this year saw me setting a challenge for thyself... work n study. Tough but i did it. Not the best but i guess i could haf done better.
It's been a happy happy year.
Me is a happy gal & pampered gal with dai bai chi & friendsssssssss ard......WAHAHAHAHAHA
Next year will be an equally happy year i hope n my lazy stint remains by my side year after year.. which is why i'm ending this post prematurely coz i'm too lazy to wordify my thots.

thy art is blogging from the office. not that i'm skiving but i haf absolutely nothing to do. and trying to act busy isn't working coz there's nothing for me to 'act busy'. boo... this sucks. i seriously dun mind not earning the money and just parking myself at home. like SERIOUSLY. i've got much better things to do outside the office. Blehz... this is making work very very dreadful. coming to the office is becoming a dread and a chore. simply coz i know that i haf to busify myself with nothing. that in itself is more tiring than working. surfing the net would sound very much appealling to me... but juding on where i'm seated... surfing the net hardly seems very possible without leaving a bad impression on fellow colleagues or rather higher rank pple would walk by my seat. sitting by the isle has it's pros and cons. u essentially get to react with most pple walking by, popping heads over to my desk and conversing is a pretty common site. if all fails to happen, i can entertain myself with pple watching... the different styles of walking, the dressing and on n on... From obersvation, there is consistantly a prick who walks by n seeming casually look into my screen. Hey babe... stop spot checking on me... i'm working k. or at the very least i alwiz get my work done first. Blehz... B****.
Back to acting busy. And i'm so looking forward to my official half day tml... lalala....

of friends n old age
had dinner at fu yuan man... nice food... but i still dun enjoy fine dining for chinese food. it just seems weird to have your food served portion by portion. at the next table to us was a bunch of old aunties and uncles. suddenly it just dawned upon me that in many many many years to come, i can imagine the bunch of us having dinner together... hopefully with a very much extended group of us... so fun... imagine us growing old together... it's like how we envision ourselves being old n playing MJ together. Wahahaha...
of weddings
there was this weddding ongoing in the ballroom of intercon... the bride is pwetty... but the groom was a tad old n plump. haha... but the bride is so pwetty in her gown... n the wedding fotos are so pwetty.... so well done.... n the hotel looks like a nice place for weddings... HAHAHA.... n i realize all the gals in wedding gowns alwiz look so pweettty....
of diamonds
diamond are girls best friend. hahaha... and well... there's this x'mas tree at bugIs which is made of diamonds n related stuff... N I STILL DUN GET IT! wat's so nice abt the tree... I stood there for a whole 5 mins trying to ask mum wat's so great abt the tree.... n bumped into kai... n i bet he muz be wondering why we were joining in the tree ogling... hahaha... Yar... n it's worth 1.5 million... n everyone is taking pix of the tree... themself n the tree... OMG. i only appreciate if the contents of the tree are on my fingers, my neck, arm, ears... or anything that can have the diamonds on it... HAHAHA... saw a pwetty set of earrings n ring... WAHAHAHA.... i'm praying that my mum's jewellery card got enough pts so that i dun haf to fork out so much.. Wahahaha...
of fats.
got tons of time. no motivation to shed them though i know that i'm in dire need to...

decided to un-mountain-ise myself n drag my ass to vivo yesterday. my take on that place. MESS. HEADACHE. maybe it's just that it's still a lil weee bit crowded. Blehz. But it's quite a nice place at the park cum wading pool cum open air area upstairs. But the shops are like almost all the same as town. just one big massive orchard road houses under the same roof. given a choice i think i'll still haunt orchard... which we ended up 2 hours in vivo. HAHAHA... But nothing beats the companion u're with. hahaha... and we're decided that we would get hold of a map of the place... strike off every shop we visitied. note the re-visitables so we can continue on part 2 next time... but i guess... there really isn't going to be a part 2 for a long time to come since we've shopped all the shops liaoz... or at least in our opinions... WAHAHAHAHA... N their map has a notes page at the back... i guess that's the purpose... wahahahaa...
and pple with doggies... check out mother garden. hahaha... no it's not some mothers shop... wahahaha...

mum just exclaimed 'guys are boring creatures who dun shop'. haha.... can i not agree with her... wahahahhahaa...

OT again. blardy hell...

this is wat happens when u dun haf sch n u haf nothing to look forward to after work...
OT. OT. OT. OT. OT.
Blehz...
But i swear never to OT till a ridiculous level. nothing more than 2 hours of OT... no matter wat time i start work.
Selfish me is going to ensure that i get my selfish me time, family time and friends time. work is after all these other priorities. Now and forever. This is wat my pondering has brought me to. hope i can keep up with this lil 'philosophy' of mine.
Part-taking in this corporate world isn't much of a choice. Climbing the corporate ladder is the consequence of being engaged in this corporate world. But making sure that i dun get sucked completely into this rat race, i will abide by my lil philosophy. Should i ever fall prey to this ladder chase, someone pls stop me from sinking in any further. I've seen the way how pple work, i've seen the price some pay just to climb the ladder. and i can only say... is it really worth it? maybe it is... maybe it isn't. i guess it all boils down to ya values.
life is unfair. i recognise that fact. but that isn't all why i closed the door on myself though i had wished i could continue walking the path that the door leads me.
one door closes but another will open. someday. patience. i'll wait.

jia: i bought books. if u want something to read & is interested, can lend u lorz. though i think they might interest jo a bit more :P

my heart speaks in a way it has not spoken in a long while..

me: woah u dressed up the bears (yeah... the pair of sof toys sitting in my hall)
mum: yeah. cute rite. give them x'mas hat to wear. Got bells somemore
me: orh
mum: then at nite when they move ard i can hear them
me: *rolls eye*

This is where my talk-to-my-soft-toys genes came from. So it's really not my fault that i'm seen talking to my soft toys and believing that they might possibly have a life of their own when we are all asleep.
And now she wants to further doll them with brooches coz their hats r a tad dull... and she's conveniently renamed brownie to chocolate. so presenting sofie n chocolate. Imagine if i had a pet dog at home.. i so believe that the dog will have a life way way better than meeee...
