Work hasnt been smooth lately. My boss is being rather bitchy and playing nasty games with us. My colleagues have made plans to move else where. Part of me intends to leave but something feels like its holding me back.. But my work place is getting unbareable. Sighs..
2008 is almost ending. the year has its up and downs for me. more of ups.
my ups: 1. my graduation 2. the conversion of my job as a contractor to a permanent staff 3. on top of the job, a promotion 4. five sweet years with my boyfriend 5. granny's salvation (Nov 10?) 6. my upcoming baptism on the 21st Dec
my down: 1. passing of my granny (Nov 22nd)
grandma is gone. everyone misses her. i break down whenever i think of her.
she has taken care of me since i was born esp during my mum's confinement. i will definitely miss her telling me stories about my dad and my paternal grandma. but i am sure she is in God's hands, in God's kingdom.... if only she could witness my baptism.....
God has been great to me. Life has been rather smooth. No hiccups for the time being.
Had a wonderful post Valentines Day celebration. Its the first time my non-romantic boyfriend doing such a romantic and memorable one. The first one after four Valentines. Really did not expect that from him. I will post up pictures when i have the time.
Honestly nothing much to update.
Work has been so-so. Nothing much to anticipate other than the proper set up of my team. Currently helping out another team but i'm taking pride in my work. Team mates are friendly and understanding. That is what I experience till now. Hope it remains the way it is.
One more thing.. Congrats bestie. I'm really delighted for you. Looking forward to that beautiful day! Saving up for that as well. Let me know if you want me to remove this.
2007 has been a pretty quiet and a slightly rocky year. I noticed that I've havent been to clubs or pubs for the past one year. May be I did but it is not significant enough for me to recall. 2007 started off quiet. All I did was study study study during the period between February till Jun. June was when my examinations ended. I slacked at home for a couple of months before I started working in Nov.
I thank God for my quiet 2007. I wouldnt have passed my examinations if not for His grace on me. I havent been a fantastic student. All mugging during the revision period. Even so, I can that the times during my revision period was chaotic. Still wondering how I passed every single paper. I even did quite well for 2papers. At least I consider that quite well. May be not to you guys but its really tough for me. I have never been the studious sort of person.
I havent thought of my new year resolutions yet. Errm... One has always been on my mind but I guess I wont be able to achieve it. That is to SHED SOME KILOS.. May be about 5kilos?? I dont want to be too ambitious but it seems like I am. Haha..
Number 2 on the list should be to perform well at work.. Will be starting in a new department but in the current company. I guess I am pretty luckily to be able to remain in my current company. It has a good working environment.. Or at least that is what I personally feel. Hope I wont have a change of opinion in my new department. I am kind of looking forward to my new department and start my career on the right foot.
Here is a video of the fireworks. Its really really small but that is the best from my home. Enjoy.. Cheers!!!
Hey all who r viewing my blog.. Do me a favour by dropping me a comment on my blog. PLS leave ur active email addie and name.. Wanna do something to my blog.. haha.. Thks!! Cheers!!
Have u caught Resident Evil: Extinction? Not yet? Watch it if you've caught the first two part of Resident Evil.. Channel 5 was showing the second part on last saturday... So ron & I decide to catch the final part of Resident Evil the next day. For those who enjoy watching the first two parts would enjoy this last one.. Or at least I've enjoyed it though i felt that the ending was quite abrupt... They should have a better ending for it instead of wad was actually shown.. I will not tell you how it ended... It would be good if they would have part 4... Ron surfed the internet on it and there are discussions going on to film part 4 but its not confirmed.. Hope there will be!
Had lunch with my Pastor and Ron this afternoon at Kenny Rogers in Great Word City.. Pastor called Ron while we were still on the way to Great World.. He was there early so he called to ensure that he got to the right place. He asked if we were supposed to meet in Great WORLD or great WALL... LOlx.. its hilarious.. Since when there was great wall in Singapore? My pastor is a man who is rather soft spoken, patient, good tempered, humble and wise.. You guys would say that obviously he is a man of such a character lar.. If not, how is he supposed to be a pastor.. Spot on right? Haha.. But not all pastors exhibit such character.. The youth pastor of my church is a person who wishes to get things done according to his way, driven, quite direct and much younger.. Really worlds apart..
Wondering why i meet my pastor for lunch? Nothing's wrong... Just a usual chat over meal with him.. We came to the topic of the INTEGRATED RESORT... Just thought I share my views on it..
Are you FOR or AGAINST it in Singapore? For: 1. it creates jobs for the society 2. brings in more wealth to our economy Against: 1. physical abuse in families, broken families, etc 2. brings disorder to our society
It looks like the cons out weigh the pros.. I know that this has been a controversial topic... What are your views? Just wanna hear your views about it since its gonna be up in 2009-2010..
Just bought a nail kit for $30.. Consist of a buffer, cuticle oil and a body cum hand cream.. Both of the cuticle oil and moisturizer contains minerals from the dead sea in Israel. Its supposed to be good but these gimmicks dont work on me.. haha Hope it works.. Here's their website:www.vardimigdal.com
Have u ever been tsk by a sales assistant? I did.. haha.. The sales assistant of the nail kit tsk at me for not wanting to get the whole nail kit.. I dont use lotions so that was why i didnt want to get the whole kit.. The kit was retailing at $40.. I only wanted to get the buffer that was retailing at $20.. I know its really expensive but its good.. Plus they will replace it within 2years if it worns out.. She tsked and reduced the kit to $30 because she didnt want to sell the items separately.. It was quite a gd deal so i got the kit.. haha.. I didnt get it bcos i was afraid of her or bcos she tsk at me.. But it was quite ridiculous right? Haha..
I intend to take a before and after picture of my nails... Stupid idea but I'm just really bored.. Oh.. I'm meeting the coolheads this friday.. Meeting one of the coolhead for shopping first then the other for dinner and talk rubbish... haha.. They are not that cool lar.. But at least we're cooler than the rest.. Lolx.. No lar.. Blabbering rubbish here..
HARI RAYA PUASA to all Muslim friends... Happy holidays to non-muslim friends.. Enjoy ur holidays.. *winks*
For those who didnt know, i've actually been in pain for more than 2weeks. I've consulted 2 doctors and finally found out the problem of it. The first was a western general practitioner whom i consulted a few days after I felt the pain on my body.. She gave me tablets for muscle relief, pain killers and a cream for external application. She said I might have accidentally injured the muscle, similar to a strain or i've been sitting or sleeping in a wrong position. We have all been sitting or sleeping a wrong position.. duncha agree? Finished up the medication but the pain persisted.. Pain killers didnt work at all.. Not much of a help... I could survive even without the pain relievers...
After 2weeks, i decided to consult the 2nd doctor. She's a chinese physician.. friendly and cheerful.. She examined me and gave me an acupuncture.. I wanted to back out initially but went ahead with it although the pain actually subsided.. I was poked by the needles 5times... Acupuncture doesnt hurt as badly as an injection.. Im not a person who would actually go for acupuncture cos i'm really afraid of the needles.. But its really cool to see those needles poking into ur own back when i turned around to peep at it.. haha..
Gosh.. I have no idea wat am i talking most of my time here.. I'm not in a mood to blog.. Ciao
