meet-ups. grown-ups

Was having alot of meeting ups with frens over the last few weekends.
and it was really enjoyable
especially for those whom I have not met for quite sometime.

altho it is not that long
but i was accused of being MIA after I work.

but anyway,
after every meeting I alwayz felt light-hearted.
It was alwayz a good meet-up.
lots of food, laughter and knowledge.

For Miss Lin's Mr. Koh, I alwayz tot that he is someone that I could learn alot from.
He is someone very different from the friends I knew.
he looks slack.
nothing spectacular.
or u can say..
very very ordinary.. (please dun kill me)
but he will be the most successful guy that I will know. (in my opinion)
i am looking forward to the day.
hahahah..
seeing my miss lin to be tai tai.
if she will not be a tai tai, Mr. Koh is still successful for being who he is. (in my opinion)
in any case, I alwayz loved to hear what he has got to say and learnt from him.

having all the meet-ups,
its sad to say that..
we are all growing old.
or..
I am the only one growing old. (mentality and physically)
haha.. our topics had changed since some of us had got out to work.

the most scary of all things is that I seemed to enjoy these grown-ups conversation!

I am not sure y..
but i feel that with knowledgeable friends around..
I got to know more stuff.
And..
I felt GOOD.

And my dear Tat..
he is like getting married real REAL soon..
I think!
i'm getting excited.
and i hope it will come true.
that will be a season of fun and kpo-ness.
but the answer will only be revealed mayb a year later.
we will see..

growing up.
is not a pain.
but if u want to grow up differently
it is a pain
very irritating..

n i wish my wish will be granted.

i will continue to be an irritated girl.

taxis

I must admit
i am a spendthrift
and i spend most of my $$ on cab

but u cant blame me.
I do not like to b late
and i do not like to rush.
so yup..
raising a hand seems like an easier soln.

I was given warning not to take cabs so frequently already.
and i am trying hard.

however,
i am beginning to irk taxi drivers.
not that every uncles and aunties are the same.
but u must agree that whenever you are in a cab
you will doubt the driver
there are far too many out there
that they want to suck yr money

Seriously.

Its very irritating.

sometimes they act blur.
sometimes they know but see u good to bully and they go their way.

I and yanyan had a good talk on our experiences with the drivers.
one word.
TERRIBLE.

I cant believe that there is a driver who can just go right into a link carpark to esplanade and force yan yan to pay the 7.50 per entry fee.
Just so yanyan says she wants him to go faster. (he wants yanyan pay that $$)
blardy hell.
and there are many many many untold stories.

What's more..
do not take a taxi when u are savvy with road.
It will irk u when u know that the driver go a long way.

there is no default rule that taxi should go the cheapest n fastest route.
But I seriously think there should be a law for that.
I mean..
this is the purpose of taxi
please correct me if it is not.
I am not paying them to give me a long ride around singapore..
Hippo bus is cheaper comparatively

I am irritated by them and I know i cant escape them
i feel trapped

frens..
if i am very late next time for our date

u shld know y..

I have kicked my bad habit away

Senseless

Who?
no need to ask.
the one we can never fight.

I cant understand.
y must there be F1.
how much increase had the tourism sector contribute to our GDP?
how hyped up is all these cars and race.

many may say that I dun fancy it so I wont understand
or I am a noob.
but seriously..
what benefits has it got?
the increase in tourists and spending?
By how much?

Why senseless?
So if its good.
Can you tell me why is there a big concert at Fort canning?
And that super big concert is a big screwed up
(please read cruz teng blog)
Having experience with production before,
the biggest thing to happen is that you screwed IT up.
Things not in order and yr performers are angry.
PLEASE.
There's no professionalism and I can feel that there is a rush-ness n unpreparedness for this whole blardy thing.
So WHY do you need this concert when you have F1?
So is it that GREAT?

I think its a waste of time n money.
Not forgetting the time wasted on setting up the barricade and tearing it dwn
and we will have this cycle for 5 years
wad's more..
Taxi began to charge ppl more when this period is here.
5 dollars surcharge at cbd area with additional 3 dollars for city surcharge
Can anyone tell me.. why has it got to have 5 bucks?
CRAZY.
and the traffic is fucking slow.
Worst still..
Taxi uncle chu stun again.

they not only disappear till peak hours but they know that going to cbd can give them good sucking of our money.
blardy hell.
they realli flock there.

Do you happen to know that many big tourists (not viewing the F1 but spending big bucks on yr shopping mall) are waiting for cabs at town area but to no avail.

They watch empty cabs GO BY THEM.

and seriously.
they are cursing.

Ho sei.

This is wad i call...

Senseless *a round of applause*

ramblings

on the bus back home everyday, I will alwayz have some tots that I want to blog about.
However, whenever I on my comp, the tots vanished.
how nice of them. -.-

So for today, no matter how blank my mind is, I have decided to scribble out something for my blog. Rah. I'll try my best.

I guess i will start with my job. I've been on it for like a month. Draw 2 mth salaries and had 2 appointments. It has been eventful but mundane. I will be officially briefed next Tuesday for my new position. I hoped i will have more work to do, SERIOUSLY. I can now fully understood how Mingyang feels. If you are reading this.. do not envy me. This is a torture. hahah.. Well.. but we all had to go tru this if u are in this industry. Jestin been tru it, Weisern been tru, Mingyang been tru and so is boi, now its me. -.-

After a mth.. I have learnt to zen myself. (kudos to the zen master) and reminds myself of the "big picture". The cookhouse uncle told me.. this is the job for woman. Good money, good benefits and good work (not siong la, in a sense). Well, he is true to a CERTAIN extent. This is definitely not for me, haha, if i continue to be that slack in my work..

Therefore, we have been looking at degrees/masters to take. Mingyang already applied for his masters while I and boy are still choosing. Its tough. We do not want to jump into the miserable workload again but this is our only chance. And so it seems that when next year came, our facebook and msn nicks will be about miserable school life again!! hahahaha...

It's a totally new experience. Its as tho I am serving my NS. I got to learn all the different protocol and got to see things that not anyone can see. I got to be called mdm and feel akward about it and in the end got so used to it. Just one bad thing about the job and that is I have to wake up very early.. And the temptation for me to get a car is super high. But.. i know deep dwn.. I just want convenience. Its not my needs. Haha.. and i dun want to spend 1k plus per mth for a depreciating obj. And my dear friend, MY, had stopped driving already. Its too hard to maintain ba. oh well, hope the following week will be a good one. I prayed hard. I will just enjoy my long weekend for now..

WHEEEE...

will be back soon

Back for good

I've been missing and closing my blog.

Reason?
1) Lazy
2) Some group is checking on me. (Shhh.. haha)

Well, all is over, I got my job and tadah! so is my blog.

It's been an eventful 8 months.
1) I was working and studying for my last semester.
2) My granny passed away
3) I graduated
4) I went on a memorable grad trip
5) I found a job

life has been relatively smooth. I hope it will get better.

Correction: it will definitely get better.

Singapore Hit Awards 2009

I saw the list and I am amazed by the nomination.

年度专辑大奖
《橙月》/方大同
《春.日光》/苏打绿
《后青春期的诗》/五月天
《魔杰座》/周杰伦
《太阳》/陈绮贞

I would say this year selection is very good.
Put it bluntly, these are very good albums which I dont expect fm93.3 recommending it.
where is the album of jolin, SHE (do they have album?) or weird boy/girl band that fm93.3 are alwayz so supportive of?

Anyway, I just hope the last nomination wins.
Tho the first two are not bad too.
but..
let her win.

She deserves more than anybody else.
