Skypark

Was at the 53rd floor of Marina Bay Sands Hotel on Sunday. Junior suite - very gorgeous view and huge room! Went up to the Skypark for a swim and an hour worth of tan. Absolutely heavenly! Amazing design! It was fabulous! Pics are not yet uploaded. Will post them when I'm less tired. :) Went for a run jus now - 1st run in goodness knows how long. I've put on weight.. My whole family says so! :( So I decided to keep fit! Ran from my house to Bishan to Shunfu aka Marymount MRT and all the way home again. 1 big round though I'm not sure how long it is. Will find out later but the run feels good! My old injury acted up a little by aching when I was done with the run but I think it's ok now. Or so I hope! :p Side note: Tried a very delicious Lavender flavoured mooncake at Taka basement but didn't buy it. Regretting now!!! :_( I think.. I wanna go back to Taka to get the mooncake for myself!!!

Pretty Face

Disgusted that some girls get jobs by looking pretty, know how to put tonnes of makeup on their faces, know how to whine and act sweet and pitiful or cute but are not that fantastic with their work. She came for an interview. Main interviewer was a female. Main interviewer came out of the interview and the more senior guys started requesting to "interview" her as well. So the guys went in, saw her, found her pretty. After the whole thing, main interviewer asked for opinion. Guys obviously adore her to bits! Main interviewer commented "A girl need not know anything about her work, as long as she's pretty and knows how to doll up." Seriously, WHAT THE FUCK??? If everyone thinks like that, I'm sure the company will collapse sooner or later!!! And the more disgusting part is that after the interview, she came up to our floor almost every single day to suck up to the main interviewer and act sweet in front of the guys! *PUKES* ARGH!!! Can't stand people who s...

Hoping..

ARGH!! Couldn't help it but lost my patience again!!! And this time, we bumped into someone from our office! And I was soooo pissed that I said something about her behind her back. Problem is, I might have said it a bit too loud (under the influence of alchohol) and now I'm seriously worried that she might have heard it!!! Damn it!!!!!!!!!!! Super duper pissed with myself!!! What's done cannot be undone. Can only tell myself to SHUT UP and once again, remind myself not to lose my patience in public especially near office area! Damn!!!!!

Tolerance

Can't believe it - I woke up late for work today!! Or rather, I didn't wake up til Jacko (my mentor) sms-ed me at 7.45am to check if I was stuck on the MRT. How embarrassing is that?! I woke up with a start, called him to say I was sorry and that I had jus woken up, would be at work shortly. :( Rushed and thankfully, there was a cab available! Reached office at 8.15am in the end - almost an hour late! Luckily my team mates were really nice and didn't make a big hoo-ha out of it. :) Was on the MRT on the way home jus now. Where I stood happened to be next to where a couple was sitting. Noticed that both their faces looked a bit black. As usual, I had my Ipod with me and my music was blasting. I secretly removed 1 side of my earphones and realised they were arguing/quarrelling about something. Felt bad to intrude and hence I stuck the earphone back into my ear. But it got me thinking after that episode on the MRT. How many times have Eeyore and I done that in public - being p...

Sydney 13-21 Aug 2010

What can I say? It was an amazing trip!! I know I was bad to throw my tantrum on the trip a few times - he didn't help me but was helping my sis when we 1st went skiing, I was really too tired to even wanna talk to anyone. I can't help it! It was the time of the month and I was really tired out! He really tried his hardest to pacify me along the way and seriously, I haven't felt his love in a very long time til this trip! It's so nice to be loved again! :) Can't remember all the things we did or saw but here's the gist of it. 13 Aug - The moment we reached Sydney, we checked in to our hotel (Travelodge Wynard) and headed out for lunch with Ting, Gin, Yinta and Carly. Dim sum at Chinatown! :) They were really sweet to buy us lunch! Walked around town for some sight seeing, met up with Kat and the rest again for dinner! Back to hotel to zzz soon after as I was tired from the overnite flight. 14 Aug - Rented a car and drove to Hunter Valley. Tasted lots of wine, bo...

Break / Breakthrough

Today is a breakthrough for me - I actually had lunch on my own in public, that is I didn't hide in the office or at home to eat alone. I ate alone at the food court with my trusty companion aka Ipod. :) Was kinda alright. Think I might be able to get used to this idea someday. Thanks to everyone for the concern about the blood problem. Only happened that 1 time so I am refraining from rushing to the doc. I know, I'm jus plain stubborn but I feel ok for now. I'm eating a lot and since what goes in must come out, I have been going to toilet quite a lot too. And hence, I'm hungry quite easily these days. :D I promise that I'll see a doc the minute I feel that something is not right, ok? :) Pls don't scold me! Finally, I am having a well deserved (in my own opinion only) break! 1st trip out of Singapore (not counting KL or Malaysia coz those are not that far away!) for this year starts tonite! It's a far cry from my 5 trips per year policy but it's soooo ha...

Monitoring Myself

Something happened to me as I was about to leave office and head home. I saw blood where I'm not supposed to see it (not the monthly kind in case u guys are thinking of that). I'm not sure what is causing it and I'm gonna monitor my condition. I really dunno if it's a cause for alarm but I'm hoping that it's not. My initial reaction was fright when I saw it. Then I started to be worried and I actually teared a bit in office. But I'm not gonna let this get me down. Much as I'm concerned about myself, I'm gonna stay strong and keep my fingers crossed, wishing for the best. This could be a sign for me to start being more attentive and showing more care towards my own health. Maybe it's time for me to love myself more, care more for myself and to treat myself better. This body of mine is no longer what it used to be. Getting old with age and body parts might need some repair of sorts. Really have to take care of myself! 1 day of monitoring is what I ...

20 Years

I can't help but say this... Time really flies. It's been 20 years since my mum passed away. I really do miss her lots! Cried myself to sleep on 3 aug nite.  This post is 1 day late coz I didn't have laptop to use. Wonder if my mummy has been reincarnated per chinese tradition. I really do hope she has. She will be 8 years younger than me if she has. :)  Hope mummy knows I'm happy with work and most aspects of my life now. Hope she's proud of me and happy for me too! I'll do all that I can to make her very proud of me coz that is what I have promised her all along in my heart.  I love u mummy, now and forever, for all my life! Will post a pic of my parents soon when i have usage of laptop! :) Thanks to Meng and Shuang for their concern n them knowing me so well! PS: thanks to Simon for teaching the suaku me how to use email to blog so I can blog anywhere now!!  PPS: congrats to Matt on the birth of his baby girl!

Friends.. Oh Pls!

I think I've finally seen the true colours of hypocrites and liars who call themselves my friends. From today onwards, I'll distant myself from such people who treat me like a fool. I have forgiven them time and time again, but pls stop mis-using my kindness and making me an idiot. I choose to close 1 eye everytime, but not anymore. I'm not going to be the nice and naive girl in your eyes any longer. Sick and tired of such so called friends. Like what my daddy used to say, u don't need a lot of friends. Jus a few good friends is more than enough. I agree. Totally. Thanks for letting me see it so clearly today. I will no longer care nor bother about u anymore. I'm sure my life will be happier without such so called "friends".
