it's appreciating simple things.

aiks my cough is back, though less serious this time but it's gd friend flu came along with it... and u knw how much i hate running noses. and any med for flu usually makes one drowsy, so i did away with it. =X then again, i know i should be sleeping to repay my rest.. but there're certain things which i want to blog about..or rather, many different issues..
i know sadness lives in everyone. some more than others.. some people tend to be harder than others. but i choose to believe that no matter how cold or heartless one seems to be on the outside. i know they feel. these people just dont know how to express themselves. just dont want to show people the soft side of them. i know U feel, and something tells me u arent the type of person of person people think you are. although i know U will never get a chance to see this. But i truly admire U. This U i a colleague of mine.
i'm tired.. zzzz talk abt the rest soon.

i'm f**king pissed off. Please dont make your piece of shit my piece of shit. You know i dont deserve this. And your words stung on impact. But later i got to realise that HEY. i know very well i have done nothing wrong, and i agree with what wendy said. It's your imcapability to keep your guy. Dont conveniently use another girl as the excuse.

i bought a new printer, and happily trf the old one to my piggy's place. and at the moment we're high on printing our own picrtures. Lol. IT fair meant a new printer, and a new mouse and a $5 headphone w/mic. =)

so many things to say, but i'm tired.

no tears from you Joanne. your tears are not to fall for those unworthy.

darling. i think i need choc therapy. =X (excuse)

i have a bad bad throat...it hurts each time i swallow saliva. which is pretty bad. my system goes this way, when start to fall sick, it's usually nothing much or really really bad. it has been some time since i last had a sore throat...and this time round, this is bad. *ouch*. and here i am, all alone in hall, nursing a bad sore throat, on a super quiet recess week friday night.=( pray hard i dont get a running nose, cos i hardly do, but once i get it, i take 2 weeks to recover? haha i think i need honey water or something along that line...someone be nice enough to get me some? hahaa
It's Friday! and i had two days off this week for the yearly MSE-IMRE challenge... pretty much a success i would say. i guess some people change when they reach the top.. but that's pretty much a sad thing in life...
so many decisions in life to make. sometimes, you look back and regret the choices you make, but what doesnt turn out right only makes you stronger right? i know one wrong step may just lead you on a wrong wrong path. and what happens if you cannot find the way back to the correct path? would someone eventually lead you on the correct path? or will the lessons learnt on the wrong one give you the experience to find the right way out?
So many people i've disappointed in this life of mine. sorry. i know i'm not very capable. that i fell bad once and could not pick myself up, but i'm surviving ain't i? sorry for the many mistakes i've made, the many wrong decisions i have made. for all the evil i've done.
found out alot of things that shocked me this week. you know how different things would have been if figured out earlier...but its abit late...things could never be the same again.
we make a choice. we're products of our choices.
on a lighter note...
hey shiva! how's itchy and scratchy? =X i want to see pictures of them! =P i know they love you! and tell me you love them too. =)
I wanna play tennis.. go swimming and work up a tan...wait till i get better first.
Hugs.. i miss so many of you...i know i'm not doing enough to meet u all..

ah, i'm sorry. I dont even know how to comfort myself when i'm feeling down, let alone others. i feel the pain with you, but i dont know how to express myself. i feel lost as well, but i dont know to share. it's heartbreaking...to be unable to do much as a friend. i know i have disppeared from alot of your lives, give me time to come back ok?
recent;y gave away of some of my hammies. i know they will have new happy homes. hey hammies be good with your new owners ok? =D your godma here will rmb you little guys. but i know you are in good hands. I'm sorry to hear abour Baby. when i heard the news, my heart fell apart too, i'm sorry i couldnt say much over the phone. but lBaby has gone to a better place ya? Cheers
you know, it's never too hard to keep a smile on... even if one's aching that bad inside. been feeling emo these days, aRGH. but i be fine. =)

Happy Birthday to you..

Happy Birthday to you..

Happy Birthday to shi-va-nannnn..

Happy Birthday to you...=)

Joanne sings*

Happy Birthday to you...

Happy Birthday to you...

Happy Birthday to ZiYuan,

Happy Birthday to you~ =)

man i think i havent been here for a long long time. i kind of feel sad about the life that i am leading now... it's practically like no life to me, and the feeling sucks. it's like being trapped in a bubble with no where to escape.
chinese new yr came and is passing soon. it's close to 2 months into work, and alr i feel like an old lady. big sigh. i feel tired, but all that seems to be most happening is spending time at work, and listening to the jokers at work joke. i must admit that i have really wonderful colleagues. but then in my view, things get so political that it does not feel as enjoyable anymore.bah. outside work, i face a room-mate who prefers to keep quiet just like me, and not take the initiative to talk, just like me.
i have been OT-ing that i hardly get to meet my two saviours chak and ah bai in hall. bai gan ma miss you. and bai, take care of zhu ren for me ok?=D
i miss my course mates. i miss those in spore n overseas.=( i'm getting too emo for my gd =X
alot of things to say, but i am tired. i shall blog more.. soon i hope...=)

hi everyone...
some updates here.. i lost my phone... yes.. ouch=( my htc touch. lost all my contact numbers as well, so everyone who see this msg, please send me your contacts ok? haiz, i shall not go on to describe how i lost it... want, come ask me kk... stupid me. that's about it. =(

some people just dont know how to appreciate things when it's just around them.. they wait till they lose it before they regret it.. sighness. but that's what everyone do aint it? bahh. sighz i think it's the extent of it ba..

it's chinese new yr ard the corner. how time flies. work at kfels for almost a month liao.. i find it really ok.. and i mean it. just pretty pissed off with certain things and people. it's always like that. talk big, lick boots, get promoted. this never fails to appear in many organisations. the humble pies just dont get recognised. appreciate what i am doing, and dont insult. i can be nice, i havent been mean. but dont try me ok?

looking forward to seeing everyone soon... =( it's sad. to not be in much contact with anyone. bai gan ma misses your smell... promise to see you soon. haha.~ muackzz..

thx darling. <3

take care everyone...

after so long, joanne is finally going to blog Yayyys. =X i do hope you guys missed me. =)jumps ard.. ok, i admit... work is draining the life out of me... but i am learning, that's what is most impt at this time. =) but i hate office politics. and i dont like to be stuck in between. well, it;s like two different camps... just like hougang..the opposition vs PAP.. lolz. but then again, i just try to do my best. and joanne needs to learn to talk more lahh... bah! hahhaz. people always comment that i like to smile only no talk. my smile nice mah right? right dar dar =P hahz. i know i am going to learn more.. soon. and i will meet ya expectations sugrin. i hope. =) hope everyone's enjoying what they do at work man! if u all want to know, i am currently issuing out pipes...u knw in keppel, they do semis and oil rigs? u know the different different projects will send a request, then i will help to issue pipes out to them. soon i be able to see and learn identify pitted pipes.as promised? BUT u know, at work, there's no such thing as promises. bah.. everyone take care ok! me tired. going off to bed. i miss you. hugs~

hey everyone!!
after 2 days at work, i've come to realise, i miss everyone back in schOol.. i actually miss going for classes.. and ya IA is not the way i have expected it to be like.. sobs. but it's ok. we learn..i hope to gain enough from this job.. *hopeful*
hehh. 2nd day only and i missed the company bus.. man 179 takes forever to come in the morning.. sadness.. hahaz.
i'm still alive n kicking though.. i wana see all of you soon.. hugs...

look at this.. iw as on my bed, then turned to look at my dog... and see what i captured! lol... so human being can! she has her head rested on the pillow, sleeping so soundly.. i think my dog here has a ultimate good life... =X and ya in any case, my parents treat her like their little daughter, and i treat her like my little sister.. =X so cute lah!=X dear gou gou, i love you wor...<3>

i'm going back to hall to start cleaning up tml...and i really got to start preparing for IA. so many different versions of smart casual, i think its better for me to be overdressed on the first day.. shall wear short sleeved shirt n pants..LOL

down to blogging... saw this picture online, and thought it kind of fitted what i have in mind.. i am fortunate i must say... look at the four glasses... i hope my relationships will be like the one on the furthest left.. it's sad to hear why some relationship simply shatter into pieces... some people hold on forever to get what they want... even if they're warned of the possible issues that they may face. some couples iron out their differences. some dont manage to.. some manage to salvage the situation when cracks start appearing, others simply let the cracks propagate...

and i realised, 一直把分手挎在嘴边，迟早会分的。。many people around me have gone through this before...guess it really isnt something that should be taken lightly... cherish those you love...

it's usually those you really love who hurt you.../you hurt people you really love....very easily...

school is reopening soon for uni ppl... and Industrial attachment starts for me next week... goodluck! =x thanks mel n daniel for the birthday gift! appreciateD!

darlicious, get well soon..*hugs*

happy new year everyone! it's 2008! =) 快乐时光虽短暂但能永远留在心中！=）把不开心的事抛在后头！each year at this point in time, i without fail will look back at the past blog entries. haha. no doubt there will be various up and down points throughout one's life, but let's move on! the wonderful memories will stay, in the heart, but leave the negativity behind right? =D 时间过得真快，转眼间2008年到了。2007 has been a relatively good year for me, i guess? as compared to the previous year? hahaz i made many new friends like bearieee, huat, kaiwen... joined mse club 8th comm, and celebrated my 21st! =) many activities throughout the year which leave memories that i could keep for a lifetime...
in 2008, i want to remain a happy girl...
i wish for you to continue loving me..
i wish for the best for my attachment at Keppel.
i wish to lose lots of weight!
i wish for happiness for all my loved ones, friends...

hello all! i'm back from china! yay fulfilling trip indeed. i didnt buy anything though, but the scenaries from guilin, priceless.. let me take you through my journey, which is going to be a super long one.. =P

19-12-2007

我的二十一岁生日就在新加坡机场，深圳航空，南宁机场，和凤凰酒店度过了。。

the security guard that was standing at the departure hall wished me happy birthday when i went through the departure hall. haha for a while i 冷了一下。。quite shock la.. yep.. the flight onboard shenzhen airlines took close to four hours, and upon arrival in nan ning, the journey to the hotel took another 45 mins. was slightly introduced to the tour guide yangyi and nan ning. then checked into phoenix hotel. not too bad a hotel.

20-12-2007

after breakfast, we set off for a 4.5 hrs journey to 德天瀑布。。it's this waterfall that lies between vietnam and china, can u imagine, i can see vietnam across from where i stood taking pictures.

and this one trip took us the whole day practically, cos it was a 4.5hrs there and return.. and as usual, Joanne liked to 自拍。。
21-12-2007

this was a trip to a beautiful park and the nan ning's 'EXPO'. And we spent several hours again on the road to guilin. =) slept alot on the bus on the first couple of days...

22/10/2007

went to this village far far away where the yao minority lived. very nice scenery along the way..=) interesting traditions they had too..

23-12-2007

this was a day of many new adventures. we went to the caves, and they were several ways to get around. amazing. got to ride this 'kart' look alike thing. haha. and then the cable car.. look at the pictures.. went up the highest mountain in guilin by cable car. admired really scenic views. amazingly beautiful.

24/12/2007

went to visit more places of interest, and a 'preserved' university compound of the olden days. haha.. got to see the examination halls, which was well pretty not the type of place we can imagine ourselves to be in..taking an exam. hahz.

25-12-2007

got around alot on the rivers. toured li jiang on ferry, saw the olden days fishing on the bamboo poles made 'boats' and took lots and lots of pictures. beautiful. as the saying goes, 桂林山水甲天下。i truly agree. things you always thought could only be seen in pictures, appear right before you.. seriously, it takes every breath away from you. =) and on this christmas night, i went to a so-called 'club' in nanning with yang yi, zhang fan and celine. it was an interesting experience. thanks to yangyi and zhangfan for the outing. realised that beer has little effect on me, but that doesnt mean i will drink... haha. and thanks celine otherwise known as xiaoxu for the company that night.

from all the pictures, i guess you all would have figured out that i really enjoyed myself. 可惜欢乐时光短暂。。时间也不会因此而停留。thanks to those who made the trip a wonderful time for me. i recommend guilin! =P

i had an enjoyable 21st birthday celebration yesterday... =) i'm a happy girl. thanks everyone for making it such a wonderful time for me. i hope u guys enjoyed yourselves too. and i'm sorry for not being to entertain everyone! as expected, some people didnt come but it's alright i know you guys have your reasons.. =) thank you everyone for the gifts and well wishes, the special song dedication from yun han and chak=) the hand-made gift from han, and the many many other things. thanks alot. and to my dear boy, thank you so so much, for the not vv well kept MIB secret...the chalet, the customized cake, LOL. thanks for everything. i <3>

i know how i shouldnt allow these kind of crap to put me down, but knowing the kind of person i am, most of you would know that this, will no doubt affect me in some way or another. fortunately i still have people around to help me maintain my sanity. you see, being nice doesnt prove to yield expected results. i backed out long ago, realizing that it would only do more harm then anything else.. choosing not to interfere, not to bother, even to ignore. but then the soft-hearted me decided that hey, our paths met, why go to such extent... but this decision to be nice, was a wrong move. wrongly accused, sleepness nights. ended up in an irritated and pissed off me. i dont want to hate you, so do the right thing...enough of this.. shant spoil the entry..
falling sick relatively easily this holidays. the first was a fever after 2 days in the rain during the isg. then now i'm down with a cold and slight cough, watery eyes and all...uRGh. must be the rain and the fatigue...
played a couple of games for isg this time round. unfortunately for me, unable to go further for IH with the rest of the oners.. going to guilin come this 19dec to 26dec. so jia you if we get thru the next round, i dont mind playing IH tennis when i come back! =)
as i approach 21 yrs old, i suddenly feel old.. i hope the celebration on 15 will be a good one. =) yay with the people i love spending the moment with me. yay! hehh =) preparations are on the way...yeppx.
lots of pictures i wanna post... so many many pics in my cam, shalll do it all at one shot when i come back from china kk? =D
cheers all...

been wanting to blog since i got so much time..but then hahaaa each time i rem, something else will distract me from blogging.. hehe i have been busy ds-liting and reading blogs while in hall, cos have training meeting and ISG, didnt see much point in going home then coming out again.. so yepp.. preparation for my birthday is ongoing, although i really am not doing alot of stuff.. got to thank my mama for volunteering to cook, my older bro for helping to settle my buffet, and my daddy for sponsoring the food=P heh..and most importantly, not forgetting the fav boy of mine... for the booking of the chalet n the miscellaneous stuff. hehe.. u say nothing will go wrong one ah =X hehe.. and also thanks the girls who volunteered to help with decor, that leaves the upcoming birthday girl with nothing much to do...thanks many many..love you all! and oH ya not to forget to mention that i am going to Guilin-china from 19-26 dec...yepz u people must rmb to miss me ok..=P nothing much has been going on lately.. my goaty brother failed his driving.. ALL THANKS to the same reason why i failed my 2nd time.. i mean not totally the same reason, but the circumstances leading to it..dang... i was like what the! but it's alright right bro, there's always next itme. =) cheers. think sophia and chak rmie also going for their tp soon.. all the best yaa=) jia you jia you! havent heard from many many people, guess all busy with their own things...meanwhile i shall go pay my bed a visit, thanks to the wonderful weather=) take care
