When I Dream~

something's wrong with my blog.. the page won't load properly. it's been this way for the whole week. think i've gotta figure out what's wrong with it. finally, it's a long weekend~! been waiting for long weekends for me to catch up on my sleep for a long time now. haha. feels good. :p woke up at 12 on friday. felt so good to finally be able to sleep past morning! woke up, bathed and waited for tom to pick me up. went to a friend's (tak sing) place and he told us that he'll be going to dongguan for work for 2 years but he'll try to come back once every 6 months. his elder brother came home at about 4 and started to make noise that he wanted to bathe before his dad. after which, he started to cook german sausages. think it's a bit stupid to bathe 1st then cook coz u still smell after that but anyway, it's not my problem. got a bit pissed off though. i commented that the sausages smelt good so my friend asked his brother if there's enough f...

went for my citibank 2nd interview on tuesday. don't think i answered too well coz i was pretty brain dead due to lack of sleep and working in the morning. not trying to find excuses for myself though. now's the time whereby i can do nothing but jus sit n wait. haha. to my dbs gals, thanx for asking how i did. u were the only who remembered.. as usual. thanx gal~! this week has been pretty hectic. been doing ot at work.. partially to wait for tom.. the other part is coz i'm supposed to rush my accounts. thanx to jessica who's been helping me so much all these while and for staying back til 8 to accompany me on tues nite! she's a really sweet gal who even helped me apply cream on my back when my rash started acting up in the office. :) i'll really miss her if i leave the company. rash has really been acting up quite badly these days. i hate the haze! it alwiz causes me to have this stupid problem. can't stand it. i hate the smell coz too much of it makes me g...

firstly, happy bday to meng~!! went for karaoke with dbs gals on wed. had quite a lot of fun. it was really a time to de-stress and unwind for all of us. had lots of laughter, chatting and fun. i enjoyed myself a lot! thanx gals! hope we can do this more often. hehe. mich has left dbs to prepare her portfolio for university. mich, all the best ya?? :p remember to keep in touch! went to meritus mandarin for lunch with my big boss and colleagues. sort of a company lunch thingy. went to a buffet restaurant there known as triple 3. i must say that it was a scrumptious lunch! we had lots of fresh oysters, salmon sashimi, smoked salmon, lobsters, chocolate related desserts and not to mention, the wine!! haha. was really awesome! i realised that my big boss is actually quite an ok kind of guy when he ain't losing his temper and blowing his top. yesterday's lunch was kinda ok. he's the kind of fella who likes to brag but other than that, lunch was considerably good. just don't ...

went out with anne and jean on saturday. felt great to catch up and go shopping together again. it's something that we've always done together and it felt juz like before. had fun chatting, eating sushi, talking about our boyfriends, and shopping and buying clothes. hehe. it was really a wonderful time spent. :p thanx gals!!! *hugz* spent sunday grocery shopping. was tiring!! bought so much stuff that we could barely carry it home. had to lug everything up the lift and my hands really ached after that. haha. the problem with 1 shot grocery shopping after 3 to 4 months. but hey, at least i'm spending less on grocery shopping! haha. thanx to my sis.. coz she uses the most stuff when she was at home. now that there's only my dad and me at home, i can afford to go grocery shopping once every quarter of the year. ;p meng, doris is a nice gal. not many people can stand your kind of attitude u know? i can be a great friend of yours, but i don't think i'll be able to st...

my boss, mr quek, has been quite stressed recently.. not really coz of work but more coz of his son who wants to change from studying in a polytechnic to a junior college. his son blames his parents for wanting him to study in a polytechnic. guess everybody has got this sort of feeling before. was talking to mr quek when i realised that something he said was quite true n it struck me. mr quek said.. at our twenties, what is important to employers is your degree. at our thirties, it will be experience and at our forties, what counts will be wisdom, strength and potential to help the company grow. this sentence strucked a chord in me. it's true. at our age now (twenties), when u look for a job, employers look at your degree coz most grads are inexperienced at this time. we have never really worked as a permanent staff before so they can only judge and employ u based on your level of education and degree. at our thirties, we should have gained at least some sort of working experience....

watched a hong kong drama serial a few nights ago. 2 brothers were chatting coz the younger brother had a quarrel with his girlfriend and they were at the 'cooling down' period. the elder brother told his younger brother, "i know 3 buddies.. they are closely related but they never appear together before. these 3 buddies are known as lost, regret and cherish/treasure." i feel that what he said is true. people often experienced these 3 feelings after something has happened. we only start to feel regretful after we have lost something, especially someone u love. it's only after we regret what has happened that we start to learn to cherish and treasure things. how many of us have lost someone we truly love, regret that we didn't cherish the person when he/she is around and that we didn't do more to show our love for him/her?? i learnt these 3 feelings the hard way.. when i was 8.. when my mum passed away.. i love her (present tense coz i still do) and i regret...

i'm so upset right now. woke up at 3.30am to see my real madrid crash and burn out of uefa's champions league while idiotic juventus go thro. even liverpool went thro!! what the hell! hope juventus get kicked out of the next round. bloody assholes. sometimes i wonder what real madrid's coach, vanderlei luxemburgo, is thinking about. he should have put michael owen into the game long ago but he waited til they went into extra time before he was willing to substitute owen in. freaking piece of shit. and raul bravo didn't clear the ball away properly causing real madrid to lose in extra time. it's so dumb!!!!!!! real madrid has got too many strikers and lack good quality defenders. it's really time for them to buy good defenders. it was a mistake to let morientes and makelele go. sighz... what i'm really afraid of now is that some of the players might want to leave coz real madrid hasn't been winning any titles, leagues or cups for the 2 years! owen joined ...

i'm not sure if it's coz we're singaporeans. at times, i do feel ashamed to be known as a singaporean but this probably applies to most countries. as technology improves, it seems as if people's sense of morality, ethics and basic sense of courtesy are disappearing. while boarding or alighting the bus or train, everyone will squeeze with one another, fighting for the seats. even when pregnant ladies or old people board the bus, nobody will volunteer to give up their seats. i simply don't understand why. when these people get a seat on the bus or train, they can pretend that nothing has happened though a pregnant lady is standing right in front of them. honestly, i look down and despise these sort of people. what's wrong with standing on a bus or train if u're young and healthy? why can't people just be a bit more courteous? i simply don't understand. this has happened in so many occasions that sometimes i feel like scolding these people. it's suc...

multi-level marketing (mlm) aka pyramid selling has never been something that i approve of or agree with. the people up there just takes your money without having to do a single shit and that's so unfair. i've just found out that nu skin is a mlm kind of company and much as i thought of buying their products, i no longer wanna do that now. neither will i be doing sales part time there. but i've wasted $240 on the stuff that i bought. i'll make full use of them and finish them up but no more money will be spent on any of their products. how to break it to my friend and not spoil our friendship is something that i have to seriously ponder about. yesterday was a pretty boring sunday as per usual. woke up early to visit grandma. she's healthy and good. glad about that. but she fell down sometime during the week and hit her head. that hurts coz i don't like to see her injuring herself. luckily she's alright. went home after that, watched a bit of tape and went to...

today has been quite a great day. woke up early in the morning.. not something that i do on weekends but i did. haha. went for free facial trial recommended by a friend. 3 of my jc council friends are working there part time so they've asked most of our council people to try it out. i'm one of the last to go for the trial. well, it was ok.. they were selling nu skin products n i did see a little improvement with my skin, especially my dark eye rings. they did lighten up a bit. bought some products from them and it costs me $240!!! felt a bit cheated at first but upon further thoughts, it's time i take care of my face now.. it's been 22 years and i've never really bothered about it. not getting younger so i better take care of it now. still deciding if i should buy the spa package to remove my eye rings but they cost $342!!! need to see if i'm getting more pay or not first. with the pay i'm getting now and all the bills that i'm paying, i can't really...

i've decided what i'm going to do after a whole day of dilemma. i'll take up the job if citibank wants me so that i can gain more exposure and experience. if i don't get the offer, then i'll transfer to be a finance and admin personnel at my current workplace. no more auditing for me. that's for sure. wanna thank everybody who have talked to me and made me come to this decision. special thanks go out to huiwen, adeline, jean, lin, mel, diana, ann, anne marie, jeremy, irene, fittor, and definitely, my boy tom who had to endure and bear with me losing my temper n control of myself this morning when i was so frustrated. thanx boy! :) feel much much better after i've come to this decision. back to my normal self. feels so much better. it's like a huge burden has juz been lifted from my shoulders. feels good now. rather happy after i made this decision. on the way home, i suggested to go for a walk with tom after dinner instead of the usual lazing around, wat...

well, been thro my interview.. think i'm getting the job but my mind's in a whirl.. not sure what i should do.. the citibank job pays well. that's for sure. not sure if i'll get to enjoy the benefits coz i'm only a contract staff. contract for 1 year. conversion to perm staff will only happen if i work well n hard enough n if there's a vacancy. basically what i'll be doing is gonna b pretty admin stuff. not sure if i wanna do that. i mean, i studied 7 years of accounting.. is it what i really want? my big boss's p.a. has told me that someone who once broke the contract of our company had to pay 6 months' worth of pay to the tyrant (big boss). not sure if i have to do that or not coz i told me own boss before that i wasn't happy here n that auditing is not suitable for me n he told me to try it out for 3 months first. my big boss's p.a. told me that since there's another vacancy for the post of finance and admin personnel, i can try it out...

juz had lunch n i'm suffering from the after lunch syndrome.. tired n sleepy. haha. ate too much during lunch but the feeling's good. :) not complaining~ today's wednesday n during these 3 days, 1 colleague was sacked, 2 new colleagues came in. hmmz.. think my big boss is a bit crazy.. keeps wanting more people in our department when the office is so freaking small.. he's got a screwed mind anyway. complained to the maintenance office that it's warm in the office n now, the maintenance office r getting their revenge - blasting the aircon n freezing everyone in the office. it's so cold here that it feels as if i'm living in a freezer. brr~~~~ watched 'white noise' last nite. well, let's not talk about the show yet. hehe. after being with my boy for so long, i still take the effort to dress up n look good when we go out. :p it's all worth it. think i'm seriously in love. hehe. ok... about the show now.. wasn't that fantastic to me. neit...
