supposed to meet my manager avril, daniel and a few others for badminton now..but the rain is so huge, i think i have problems reaching there dry... and you all know how joanne is a non-umbrella girl. =P so.. here i am, stuck in hall 7, trying to reach src dry. this is an issue nw, cos i no longer stay in hall 1. which is damn near src. but i have no complains.. really. =)i like my cosy little room now. =P


anyway,here's a picture, of me and my colleagues at fels...


so instead of many many pics, i decided to put them all into one! hahaha=)

think i shall make an effort to take the shuttle bus over to src to meet them first. =) nvm the rain i guess. =P

brb on more unhappy issues...

hello world!
today marks the last day of work in keppelfels.
i've been there for 6 months and 5 days. almost comparable to the longest period of time at cpf.
5 months as an attache, one month as a temp clerk+ as a temp clerk..
leaving is sweet sorrow in this case. 6 months, true friends made indeed.
thank you everyone in steelstock and warehouse4 for making the time such an enjoyable one for me. and people like arjay, bright, tay, gareth. thank you. if i do come back in a yr's time, you guys will definitely be the people who i would like to meet again. 6 months on, i'm going back to school, leaving behind a whole bunch of wonderful people. something sweet about leaving is the fact that maybe i will shed some weight...cos these people really feed me well too! hahaa..and leaving behind all the politics...well, i know this is inevitable in any environment. special thanks to hani, shidah n sab darling. you guys made me cry like 5 times today lah! thanks for everything. sab darling, dont so upset over me leaving, we'd be in touch right! i will post up the photos soon!

on a different note, this is an excerpt for wendy's blog.. i hope you dont mind babe...

"lowly MARRIED men flirting.
insulting the true meaning of a marriage.
plus, married and they have kids.
flirting with us.who do you think we are?
impressionable young girls that you can take advantage of?
have you ever spared a thought for your wife?scumbag."

she sounded really pissed off. haha~ i think i can understand why this entry...
but, hey i think this doesnt happen all the time right?
dont lose confidence in guys cos of this k..
i cant say for sure, that i am really confident in any relationship, but giving trust to the person who loves me, makes it all easier.
i have seen both types of guys, the ones who go out flirting, and the ones, who really love their girls.
but it's true if they've let you down once, you will tend to be more wary.
and guys, dont blame the girls for being suspicious, if u hv disappointed them before.

my fav boy, is moving on in his career, jiayou k dar..muackz.
it's been a long long time since i posted...i duno if anyone still visits, but i want to let you all know, i miss all of you. Hugs~

starting on my FYP soon...
i should.. jia you everyone, for the final yr to come..

Monday, June 09, 2008

hello~
think most people should have ended their attachment by now...
but i'm extending as a temp for another one month or so...
think it'd be good for me to earn that few extra dollars...=D
more or less planned out my timetable which i want next sem....let's hope enuff i get it.
joanne needs to really really work hard or else she dun need to graduate liao..
i hate to say this, but over the years, i kind of feel dumber n dumber...
results slipped ever since JC and it doesnt appear as though i am able to pull up much, but in any case.. i will work hard hard..jiayou jiayou! at least i should make me proud of myself. =X
i was looking through some blogs lately..then i realised something so familiar..some times when we seek help from others, we tend to forget that these people are under no obligations to help. sometimes unknowingly, these people actually start to feel as upset as you are even if the matter dont really concern them. then when they realise that they put in so much effort to help you..but in the end you chose to give up, they will be utterly disappoint.. yes it's true, people dont wish to help those who wont help themselves. Its an irony...unknowingly, it's actually a cycle... it falls back on you eventually. i guess the really 'highest level' is when you help someone, not wanting anything in return, and no matter how these people may choose to view the help you render, it doesnt matter, cos all you want to do, is to help them from the bottom of your heart. i dont think i have been able to reach anywhere close to it. hah~i guess i was also one of those who didnt hold on to the hands offered to me when i was down in the deepest pit last time.. more often than not, i chose to sit down there at the bottom, waiting for day to see light.. when i see a hand stretched in to pull me out, i chose to ignore...and yet some times when i try to climb on my own, i ended up bruising myself more than ever.. staying in there forever. but things do change.. and believe in it. no matter how difficult something may appear to be, keep believing. miracles do happen.
some times, words can be so harsh. many a times, as much as you dont mean what you say, it just slips out of your mouth... give and take bah~ leave the knives out... and put a little sugar, it doesnt really hurt that much no? am sorry to those whom i've hurt with words. i know it can be painful.
you know, even the best of friends can one day become enemies... and even the best of friends will leave you in the lurch one day... i used to believe in forever friends, but maybe not anymore. hahaz.
this is yet another very random post with ideas running everywhere, pardon me though.
*i think i am falling ill....oh man.
oh..and i think i am a 幸福little girl. =D i had mac breakfast this morning...*blissful* hehehee...smuacks! <3>
take care everybody... joanne misses alot of you...

Wednesday, June 04, 2008

hello world, =0
i havent been here for some tim e alr..
another very random post i'm going to have here..
IA is supposed to come to an end soon on 7th June, but guess?
i'm extending my service with keppel as a temp.
=) happy in the sense that i wont be leaving these people at work so soon

and i have come to one coclusion in recent days...when i have my own kids in future, the last thing i really would get for them would be those squeak squeak shoes..just the other day i was on the mmrt train... this little kid was jumping all the way from boon lay station all the way till toing bahru where i alighted.. can u imagine.. the noise from all his jumping on the squeak squeak shoes +the squeaking noise from the train carriage... whoa, max noise level up! hah.

hmm i guess the theory goes on, that what will go wrong will go wrong. and whatever meant to be will be.new relationship builds, some thought to be strong fail. but in the end, life goes on, whether youl like it or not. alot of things dont have to be said.. just need to put your heart in and feel it bah... some friends, despite being away from you for some time, when u meet them again after some time..you just feel like telling them everything, as though it was just yesterday that you last met her. some people you know for a long long imte, but at a flick of the finger, everything goes down the drain. some things dont need a reason to happen.

=)having this lab safety talk and quiz tml.. took leave for that and to settle some things at finance office side. then i'm going to meet my long 'lost' fren yuan! hehe*excited*

for a change, i think i have started to look at things at a different anf\gle these days.. is it because i have grown older or something along that line? haha i duno for sure. but i know for sure, anything can happen, whether you like it or not...

when u fall down, learn to pick yourself up.. maybe it's late, but it's never too late...
last week has been a sad week, but we all move on. take care sham, take care fit, you guys will be missed.

i still like that *tinkle in your eyes... your pretty smile. =D


Sunday, May 25, 2008

hi world,
i'm back. =)
it's 2 weeks more to the official end of IA...
shall start planning on what i really want to do after IA ends.
dont think i will be looking for any jobs or whatsoever...
maybe start on FYP or something...
i feel old suddenly...
i mean it's going to be my final yr... and whoa. =X
hahaz.
recently there were some issues with some one.
i guess that's it.
i thought guys always put their egos ahead of other things...
but i think this one person has none. some things i just cannot accept, tolerate
all the best.

randomness.
fellow-ia-mates...
jia you!
take care everyone.

thanks sugrin for the opportunity to step out of the office for the past week.

Monday, March 17, 2008

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.

Monday, March 10, 2008

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)

Friday, February 29, 2008

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..

Friday, February 22, 2008

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...=)

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...=)

Sunday, February 03, 2008

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..

Thursday, January 03, 2008


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*
