Going to 2012

2011 has been a calm year as compared to 2010, which had many 21st parties and gatherings. I can't really remember much of 2011 now, except for the work related memories. There are so much more to learn about. Friends-wise I guess I realise how some are important and should be held close to my heart while some are not. And I have learnt that I should be firm with my decision in order not to cause any disappointment to the others.

2012 will be a year of changes because I would be looking forward to changing my job somewhere near mid 2012. And graduation. Let's hope that I won't meet someone I am afraid of yet have to stick around with in the future.

Let's hope 2012 will be a great year for everyone, 风调雨顺，少一点天灾人祸；world peace ^_^v

Christmas 2011

We had a long htht on christmas eve.
I appreciate friends who had endured with sm and I to talk about our disagreements. "Communication" is listed as the number one thing we have to work on.
Will do. Encourage and not enforce. Love much.
I feel so blessed to have sm and my friends.

And I have finally completed the knitting of scarf, yay!
Looking forward to a good 2012!
So many things that I want to complete.

New year resolution: Tame my temper.

No Proposal = No Marriage

I was discussing with my sis on this topic and we agreed that a proposal is a must before marriage. Not that I'm getting married any time soon (no money no talk).

This year seems to be a good year to get married (and they can give birth to a dragon baby next year!). Seen a couple of updates of ex-schoolmates getting married and the first reaction is: so pretty! the bride is always so pretty. lol.

May true love lasts forever. :)

那些年

The reason for the overwhelming response for this movie is probably because many can relate to it. I can understand how the characters in the movie feel and everything is so realistic. And yes I realise many friends came by having similar situation in their life before.

Unlike some romance film, this appeals not only to females, but also to males. I find the content slightly too crude though. Well, but without these crude ideas, it may not appeal to that many people. Again, because people can relate to it. It's probably one of the best movies this year. I like how the story is presented to us, the audience.

Glad to be home

There's no place like home, this familiar place. :)

It's difficult to count Rupiah notes when they come in different amount and I attempted to use as many small notes as possible for our lunch. 第一次数钱数到怕 would be an apt description.

62nd :)

You are the constant reminder of how awesome i am. And I love the idea of how stuffing cheesecake into your mouth can shut our argument :) had several arguments recently, but can't rmb most of the details already.

I amused by how I can find some msges from other females to you amusing. Maybe because I don't view them as a threat, yet.

Happily 62nd :) wee.. Green crocodile tooth dentist.

Past tense

It takes so much energy trying to dislike u, one who accompanied me through a dark period of my life. It mattered and I think about it so much that I even dreamt of u in a dream.

And u just didn't care.

I guess u just don't love me as much as I felt towards u, my friend. Forget it then.

Lost for a while

I'm an idiot to leave my sat blank. argh.

Went to SP to study ytd with f and I knit away my time. Briefly read through basic theory too. Love the idea of pretending to be a student. Maybe because it's a way to forget worries at work temporary.

That comfortable feeling

Last Friday was lesson followed by a short meet-up to buy tickets for sat movie, Tin Tin, followed by dinner and ice-cream with m :) ice-cream brings comfort to the soul. And the knot in my heart regarding c is finally untied after our talk over ice-cream. You know that feeling that you love someone and you can't bear to lose him/her but it didn't matter to him/her at all? And to me, it's this feeling towards a friend. There's no point brooding over it because it really didn't matter. Why be involved in an one-sided relationship? Of course, we are still friends, I guess, just not that kind of super close kind.

I went to j's 5th birthday celebration on sat. A group of us helped the small boy to open his present. That includes transforming the transformer. Yes, I can understand finally why transformer toys are popular among kids, maybe some adults too.

And so, I have become a detective, in my dream. This is the result of watching Criminal Minds and CSI.

Fear

For fear that is small and contained within us, but huge enough to affect our decisions and mentality.

An overdose of criminal minds.

Fear of losing, fear of being incapable.

Rationalisation

When we rationalise, we tend to put each other at fault. Though it is natural that this happens, we should always think about how we could each change for the better while we pin point each other's mistake.

Applee vs Nokiaa

HEH. I do not wish for my blog entry to turn up in any search hence the title.

I have been looking forward to owning an iphone, mainly for its photo-editing features and the all so awesome reviews I heard from friends from it. However, now that my plan has reached its 21st month, I have reservations about getting an iphone 4s.

YES, I like the photo-editing features, the very fact that I can choose the filter/colour balance/brightness of any photo. Its user-friendly features are also appealing. I should be able to pick up the skill of using this new phone pretty fast, given that I have my dear ifish.

BUT, the infamous problem with iphone's battery life. I am not so concerned about the fact that I have to charge everyday. What I'm concerned with is whether the battery will die before 21mths of usage because I'll really feel cheated (like I did, for my sony ericssonn w595 or smthg like that). Not that changing the battery of iphone will help, I heard. because rumour says that even the battery-changing service is to change the battery with another "chiong"(aka pirated) battery. Servicing will also be a problem, not to mention, its higher price as compared to the other smart phones in the market. AND, the fb app is a bitch sometimes.

On the other hand, my loyal nokia phone has served me well these almost 22mths. Other than the sudden cut off of my tele-conversation a couple of times a few months back, it has not given me any problems. AND, nokiaa service centre is conveniently located at vivo (not that I wish that my phone would meet with some mishap) and they used to have this thing call "extended warranty", not sure if they still have this though.

So, smart touch screen phone OR not,
Applee or Nokiaa-N9.

Liberation; fond memories

Today's the last report submission date for my three and a half years of study. Phew. Hopefully all clear and can graduate on time.

I have learnt a lot: about people, system and work. Felt lonely on this journey sometimes, glad that it's all over now. Seriously, 日久见人心.

On a side note, I found my fav teacher on fb! So happy so initiated a chat. My pri sch memories would be vastly different without him.

Randomly saw my pri 1 and 2 form teacher. Not sure if she really rmb me or was being friendly because I smiled to her at the bus stop. She asked about how I'm doing so I told her a little.

No weekend

Is this how an accountant should feel, having no weekend? I didn't realize that today's another Monday because I have been busy with projects. Okay, I confess that I had my fair share of slack days during my 3rd sem.

I had a meet up with one gf on fri and shared a bit of our life. That's one happy study day though I'm not sure if I had disturbed her too much. Whether its study, kimchi, baking, nature tour, shopping, (i guess i could go on and on, so i should stop here) Our next awaits :) n with feng!

Next was sat's dental followed by project meet up which was, errrrr, not very productive?

Sunday was a "stay home Sunday", which I woke up at noon (happily) and got struck in the first round of the sdm test. So not productive not because I slacked, but because I don't know what's wrong. :( sm paid me a visit which made me feel much comfort. :)

Home-cooked food is still the best after a long day. :)

Two more assignment + a dreadful pair of nonsense bitchy sse (on wed) to go.

Something happy! ->
I dreamt of my fav teacher! I have never thought I missed him so much but I did. Maybe it's better this way that I never knew him too much. Cos this means that I wouldnt know about any weakness of his. Hahaha. I'm madly amused that my brain digged him out from my memory to make me happy. :D

Expensive wisdom

I went for dental today and it costed me $50+. this is still okay. The dentist advised me to go for wisdom tooth removal. And having a tooth that is half-grown (half still in the gum, apparently decided not to come out) will cost me around $500+, to remove it.

List of things I would need to spend on currently:
New phone => tel with Internet plan?
Travel to batam
Travel to xxx (not confirmed yet)
Learn to drive
Learn jap ( judging from the situation now, I'll probably put off this plan (again) )
Further study in accounting

I feel very poor already. :(

#nowonderpplcomplain

Having second thoughts about learning to drive.

What to get for your boyfriend

In light of the semester that is ending for me, I cannot, shall not, could not procratinate anymore.
I have to start thinking of getting what to get.
And running out of ideas, I went to my best friend (google) and saw this link
http://www.wikihow.com/Buy-a-Gift-for-Your-Boyfriend

and.
I'm. still. thinking.
hopefully a creative idea will pop up soon!

Steve Jobs

Someone I look up to.
Because his story is really one that is inspiring.

His speech for Stamford university graduation is from where my interest in him started. He ended with a phrase, "stay hungry, stay foolish". This is what I'm going to learn to do. Really sad that he passed away.

Let's hope that Apple will continue to be innovative. Get 4s?


As I'm getting all too emotional about things, I know I'm affected by setbacks. Something just hit me and that's y I'm blogging.

There's two ways to handle setbacks:
Negative: blame it on everything, everyone else, or be soak in self-pity (which is what I normally does)
Or
Positive: take it in your strike, learn from it and be a better person

Jia you everyone! We are the world (my dad's way of reply to my mum's 明天会更好。

The end of a busy week

For the week that just passed, I had
monday- afa test
tues- work
wed- work
thurs- summary assignment (disgusting cos we had to do summary for ten articles of which used chim english and then i realised my english is pretty bad cos many a times i can't understand and that i'll have to re-read a few times before I can get a rough idea, not even sure if i'm right about it)
fri- mas test

was supposed to work three days every week but i asked for two days for this week and four for the next because I really wasn't able to complete my summary in time. so next week, four days work and presentation! omg. haven't prepare things for that, will look through later.

I feel guilty about not remembering the sdm online "playing game" submission on thurs. I wrote it down on my organiser but somehow the summary date due was the only thing that captured my attention. And I know we have been unfair to jen because she has been the hardworking one and she has been putting in a lot of effort in our projects.

Gonna scrap through my final sem I guess. Finally understand what a friend meant by "stress in the last sem cos worry that you can't graduate". nods.

Met up with sm and friends after my test last night. Talked about pulling string and biasness of statistics data. And felt that the world is so big for one to explore. Food for thought. On a side note, my taiwan trip is still not confirmed. I'm getting irritated.

HAPPY CHILDREN'S DAY, stay young at heart!

Half a decade.

How amazing time flies, it's been 5 years.
I know i have been a bad gf sometimes, demanding too much from you. I'll be more rational in my thinking. And not throw tantrum. And not be less emtional okay. And to be more hardworking. And to not forget to check my phone. And not be so late. oh gosh why so many weakness. :( but you have to work hard too okay.

ANYWAY, HAPPILY. :)
Thank you for the amazing half a decade.
I'm looking forwad to more. <3

Too stressed became two stressed

Yes, it's me and my far-too-sensitive, possessive character especially when it concerns you n (I shall name) "the nonsense". Piled up on it are the stress for tests projects and worry for work. As a result, I exploded (aka blasted).

I feel bad AFTER we talk through things everytime. But it just keeps repeating. I'll try to control, yes? On the other hand, it's high time u take initiative to arrange a date to date me, hahahahahahahahaha. :)

One month countdown!
