my cubicle

my very messy cubicle

huili seating beside me

the cati room

blur grp photo we took using hl's hp
(i took my camera but i forgot to charge! :( )

chee ling mei mei n xiao xiong!

the 2 most zhi-high 组合

was getting so hype up for the trip.
and it got storm..
maybe it is not meant to be. .




going to hongkong..

I PASS MY ADV THEORY TEST!!!
WHEEEEEEEE....






i know its nothing to be so happy about..
but having failing the school test for so many times..
passing this traffic police one is ONE great happiness!!!

counting dwn

woot..
how many more days??
less than 2 weeks
and i am going to HONGKONG

not v excited intially..
tot i will when i is there and i is back...
didn't realise the pre-trip planning would get me so high!
read tons of reviews and blogs..
to say the truth once experience really won a guide book!
woot!!
seeing the pictures and the things that i am going to do!
i cant wait..
especially the food!!
yum yum!!
its going to be a fat trip!!!
well.. shopping is not in the itenary..
but will grab for cheap deals while we are at mongkok.
exciting exciting!!
hope i can stay there longer!!!

hongkong.. here i come!

hope yr sick will get so much much better!!!
take care!!
(=^.^=)

abit guilty

was doing some cruising online..
and chance upon the foodie website..
was thinking of seeing whether there is any interesting places for me to explore and to grab cheap deals along the way..
well..
it got to me that the doctor(who is the blogger)
wrote a post.
it somehow shock me back to reality..
working in gallup for like 3 months.
i was somehow push to the one side of the world.
everyday, i deal with money!
yeah, money..
i got to know more about money..
got to know more stuff..
and inevitably..
wanting to b in the rat race..
i realise i want to be in it..
maybe for the hope of security in the near future??

however, i somehow quite forgotten what i really wanted in life.
so after reading the article abt HIV kids losing parents and their lives..
and still being able to face life with so much grace and cheerfulness.
i admire this spirit.
mayb is becos i do not have this spirit!
hahaha..
but still it is amazing..
to hear all of this coming from a HIV positive child of 5-6 years old.
No parents, no siblings?
Alone in the world..
encouraging ppl arnd her who have the same fate to b stronger.

how irony the world is.
the world seems to b divided.
and strictly speaking.
it is..
i know this is ridiculous..
but after looking tru the page..
i rmb i once wanted to do smth..
and tt is i've got the money..
i wanna adopt a child..
giving the person a new lease of life..
quite nice..
just send money over..
and mayb pay a visit or smth?
i know it is not so easy just to say say..
about giving money and such..
but somehow..
i just feel that if you have this mentality, at least u won't forget the less fortunate..
almost everyone is fighting for themselves.
to climb higher to earn a living..
i really wonder sometimes why do u have to made yrself roll into this rat race situation.
well..
of course there's a lot of theory and terms to explain this..
just felt like voicing out.

I feel that.
if u feel that if u consider that someone who climbs high is someone to look upon.
mayb you shld really go into drastic condition and u will feel who to realli look up upon.
to me..
i will look up upon the 7 years old girl.
i hope that all is well to her and she will have many treasured memories to keep with her before she went to her lord.

today..
we have the last briefing of OCBC briefing.
i felt that i really learn alot of financial stuff from them.
i've gain so much knowledge.
i felt good at one part.
i am like attending a course on banks rather than to have a normal briefing.

having said that..
i very much wanted to share whatever i know and i feel to boi at every point.
but somehow..
it seems hard..
alot of plans made and things did today.
realli wanted to share on the everything i did or plan..
and hoping that boi could join.
however, i know it's abit hard.
well.. we planto go for a "last day" dinner and outing..
1)Going chalet?
2)Going JB?
3)Going Nancy's place?
Dunch kow..

today we end work early.
all of us went to glutton square and den we have chocolate fondue(nancy treat!)

to end off..
the day is great at certain part.
bad at certain part.
i learn and relearn things.
today..
i can feel the power of hl's advice:"Don't underestimate your threshold for aftereffect."
alot of people flash past my mind at certain parts of the night.
i realise..
it's only when things happened.
that whatever you have learn..
is not what you actually wanted.
i realise..
the brain is really a complicated system.
your feelings is a catalyst to make it more confusing.
and your judgment is just a gambling den.
to make the correct bet on the actions that you want to do or not..

it always seems like it is my fault..
it's time to grow up.

当整本书被填满时。。
这代表冬天过去了，
来的是秋天。
填满的书，
代表小鸟的成长。
离开妈妈的怀抱。
离开的鸟，
不管有多不舍，
但它知道，
书满了。。
就是离开鸟巢的时侯。
写满丰富经验的书，
就是代表小鸟成长的时候。

think it is true

chance upon it on the web..
quite meaningful!
hope u like it!

one of the old collage i remembered that i cant post.
so i post now!
hahaha.. pictures of us at the uk funfair at bishan dunno
how many donkey months ago!

fear in me

this week..
i got a lot of fear..
and i have overcome some..
however, there's one such terrible fear..
that i have been avoiding..
IS BACK.
i can feel my nervous breaking dwn when i met it..
TMD..
first time in my life..
the immense stress i ever had..

i look at my module summary..
just one..
i got a nervous breakdwn..
at 2 plus am..
i got tremendous stress running tru my whole body...

i scare i cant wear my robe!
i want to frame it de lea.. (wonder if it's for sale)
and give it to my papa!
maybe that's the best gift ever given by me..
not even a third class, just a pass..
i think he will be happy!
GOD!
save me!
