19 August Outing with both Jo and FY... Surprisingly the star girl wasnt as late as I expected and we started our window-shopping while waiting for FY to turn up. But I end up being a "waitress" waiting for 2 da xiao jie to try their clothes... coz i decided tt I shd refrain from shopping other den for office wear, coz i already kenna complained badly from my feng-zi gor during my recent China trip. After a long "hungry" wait, we finally went for our dinner at Sushi-Tei.
18 August My last day at TLL... Although I have been only a temp staff, but I really enjoyed my short stint at TLL very much due to my friendly and helpful colleagues, especially Peggy and Justin. (The pantry which is always filled with yummy food also contributed partially to the wonderful experience... haha!) Peggy is like my mentor, and she's always so patient in teaching me and always let me take leave when I need to MIA for various reasons. *sobz sobz* Justin, who is sitting in between us, has been our target of numerous kinds of personal and non-personal "vicious" attacks, till he is immune to any forms of criticism, has been a great companion to us as well. Poor guy (in the sense that he will miss our companionship... WAHAHAHA!), I wish him well in his new job... *lolx* Really thanks to both of u and I really enjoyed our movie outing at AMK hub (the first time we were in casual wear... haha! but nonetheless Justin still looked as glum as ever, cant blame him... for he had to endure our "suanning" even on his offday... *lolx*) Thanks to my HODs for giving me a chance to work at the finance department as well!

It was quite a horrendous feeling walking out of the exam hall thinking that the final paper would be a letdown. I think I complained to a lot of ppl about how lousy I had performed. Anyway, I met up with Jo and her frens, Ren Hui and Hui Min and took quite some pics outside the exam hall, toilet (dun ask me y), bus and mrt all the way to pizza hut where we had lunch. Jo and I were damn starved by the time we reached pizza hut at Suntec. We even ponned the research survey we had signed up for (we did it responsibly by informing the person before bidding good bye to NTU). ![]() Poor Jo was suanned by us all the way... But anyway, we had a hearty time together, chatting and eating. In actual fact, 3 of them still have some more papers to go, but they seemed more like they finished their last paper than I do, coz I was more tired and deprived of sleep. I had a really enjoyable time with them and thanzx girls for celebrating with me... haha! ![]() RighT HeRe wAitIng FoR yOU @ 12:44 AM + + + *HUGS* TOTAL! give StaR_LinG more *HUGS* Get hugs of your own (,") WisHing UpOn A sTAr (",) As the old saying goes, "Time really flies" and truly, I have unofficially graduated after my final paper ended in April. It was a hectic final semester for me, coz right after my Professional Attachment, I had to catch up on my final subject (for missing many lessons) and most importantly, my Final Year Project (FYP in short). I only started doing my FYP in Dec last year, so those who had done FYP before would know what it meant to be attempting to complete an FYP project in about 3-4 mths, esp for mine with such a long and complicated title and a busy Prof. We managed to submit our final report by the end of the deadline by putting in our utmost efforts to deliver the results to meet the expectations of our prof. I am really thankful for having great teammates like Mark and Stan and also for having new found frens from the partner team to work with. Our friendly Prof even treated us twice, including a pub session with his other students (great food, wine and beer session). Immediately after the short happiness and satisfaction from finally completing the FYP, it was mugging session all the way to exams. Pandaric experience ( as in sleeping late resulting in OBK or O-Bak-kak eyes) coz I had really lagged in the subject so I gotta catch up a lot. Dearest Jo and Me... Thanzx Jo for making this! I am so touched!
My Strat Mgt Team members... My classmates from Strat Mgt ![]() My final paper was on the 18th April. However, I din really feel that elated when I came out of the exams hall. Partially coz I felt I din do tt well as I could or should have done, and partly its due to the fact that I would be stepping into the corporate world soon. No more slacking around and no more procastinating... no more the student deals.... no more exams... To be continued... RighT HeRe wAitIng FoR yOU @ 1:23 AM + + + *HUGS* TOTAL! give StaR_LinG more *HUGS* Get hugs of your own (,") WisHing UpOn A sTAr (",) There had been something in my mind which kinda affected me. The ppl whom I used to be so close to and it's also partially coz of them that I could adapt well in the States suddenly felt so strange to me. Initially I would tell myself there's shouldnt be a problem although I was starting to feel "off" , like I couldnt fit into their topics. I understand that it was due to less time spent tog dat caused me to distance apart from them. But I tot it still wouldnt be much of a problem. However, I was totally wrong. I din noe how did it end up dat it really caused a crack in our r/s till I dunno how to face them. I guess at that point of time i was too hurt as well... coz i din noe what i did that went wrong till I decided to give up and that was something I did most wrong. Sometimes what i feel is best may not be right in others opinions but I juz din speak up my views too. There were really lots of things I wanna tell them. But i never had the chance nor the courage to approach them. All I wanna say now is thanx for all you ppl have done and I really enjoyed the times we had together regardless of what had happened. Thanzx to her for telling me that you had tot about the matter as well, and thanx for letting me noe that everything has been over. Recently work has been too routine till I forgot about dates. It's juz a coincidence that I actually instinctly opened my laptop folders to look thru the gip photos I had taken on thurs nite. Jiehua gor strike me with the qn that I realised it had been one year since we first flew to the US. I suddenly missed them all so much. The happy times we had together was really unforgettable despite the many sacrifices I had to make. Thanzx to Simon & Jiaxiang for organising the gathering to celebrate Mich & Jiaxiang (haha!) & Christian (who din turned up in the end) bdays... It was really a nice old feeling to see them again before the buy one get one free pair disappear. I would also like to say Welcome Back to Singapore finally to Justin Xuberlake. 2006 has been really a learning experience for me. And I tink I have grew up quite a lot... perhaps no longer the crappy girl u all noe... no longer so lame ba... occasionally I may be back to the old self though *lolx* However, I hope to catch up with a few frens I kinda lost contact for a long time... But i dunno if u guys still have the time for me... 6 mths really can change a lot of things and it made me realised I should cherish whatever I have now even more. To my dearest sisters: Thanzx for alwaz being there for me, although occasionally MIA. To my JC frens: Nice seeing u all again... Hope to see u ppl more often!!! I feel dat i kinda lost touch with u ppl's happenings.. haha! To Joanna, FY, Andeline, Lilian: I am glad that u girls are still with me... although now like one come one go kinda situation, guess I have to wait till june/july before we all can have a gathering again. To my fyp kakis: I feel so damn paiseh that I din do much... I will be back in action soon! To my other frens: Thanzx for the frenship we hold all these years... Got time muz contact me yar... esp my pri sch frens... =) My New Year Resolution is very simple but whether I can achieve or not is another matter... 1) World Peace ( alright I know we are not having a Miss Universe competition here, but let me try to be ultraistic 2) everyone ard me and me to be happy =) 3) This is more personal... Exercise mroe and Gain weight!!! wahaha! I never seemed to achieve this year after year... Last but not least... I really hope that 2007 will be a better year for everyone... And may I be stronger emotionally and physically =) (reminds me of the line " May the force be with you" oh no... tt's so ... haha!) RighT HeRe wAitIng FoR yOU @ 11:27 PM + + + *HUGS* TOTAL! give StaR_LinG more *HUGS* Get hugs of your own (,") WisHing UpOn A sTAr (",) All the above seems like a prelude to what I will expect when I start real work next year... Juggling between work, family and frens have alwaz been talked about but never been a true experience till now. I guess it's kinda like a trial run for now and I also have to multi-task as much as possible, coz my night time (from the time I reach home to I slp) is so limited... How I wish I can dun think about getting a job next year... It's seems like a quite impossible task to even find a job... coz there's like dunno how many others out there trying their luck and of coz with their better capabilities as well. This holiday at least I managed to meet up some "long lost" frens for weekday dinner... Although it's only for dinner, but it's really nice to do some catching up with many of my frens... Like my sisters, jo, andeline, jc classmates, gip frens... Thanzx to Mei Ting for organizing the class dinner! Well, although everywhere seems to be having sales, but so far i only got a pair of pants from FWoman, so I guess it's gg to be difficult for me to enjoy the great feeling of a shopping spree... Even if I want, my ALLOWANCE wouldnt even allow me for anything extra, except to eat(affordably) and travel (by public transport). Sianz man... This year even if i have been a real good girl, Santa Clause (did i spell the word correctly??? haha) also wouldnt grant the long Xmas list that I am gg to have... I see from reports that Santa in Greenland is gg into the reds le, dun even have the money to reply to kids letters... Ultra duper sianz.... Anyway, I decided to drop a quick bloggie right now coz I am trying hard to clear the cobwebs on my blog before Xmas and also to make use of this chance to Wish you peeps a Very MerrY Xmas & May EveRyonE one OF You SpenD thIS joYous Day With Your Loved Ones!!! RighT HeRe wAitIng FoR yOU @ 12:25 AM + + + *HUGS* TOTAL! give StaR_LinG more *HUGS* Get hugs of your own (,") WisHing UpOn A sTAr (",) During the start of my 2 weeks holidays, I was really slacking around in my house, but as the week goes on, I realised I really have lots of stuff waiting for me to settle, which I had procastinated till now. Luckily I managed to send my laptop for checking which I was supposed to do half year ago... *lol* Really lots of thanzx to Simon, Jiehua & Raymond for letting me store my stuff in their harddrives for so long... Paiseh guys... Hopefully the acer pple can resolve my laptop problem asap. Most importantly, I also met up with 2 of my scgs frens whom I haven met up since the start of this semester... so it's was fun time catching up with each other (while waiting for the sakae long q for our dinner =_=!!!) It's monday now... still got one week left before I starting work...
Just read a mail sent from one of my friends and decided to share with you peeps... RighT HeRe wAitIng FoR yOU @ 12:36 AM + + + *HUGS* TOTAL! give StaR_LinG more *HUGS* Get hugs of your own (,") WisHing UpOn A sTAr (",) Monday was the opening ceremony, so basically I was there to be the "usher" to check the guests' invitation cards with the other volunteers. Then we got a chance to attend the ceremony graced by our President SR Nathan. I can say it's the first time i see him in person... from afar... =) There was a award ceremony and ended in an hour's time. After which we had a dim sum reception, which most of the food were gone by the time we wanna get it... So not much luck on the food... But the interesting thing is qing & I got a chance to talk to the GM of Thai Village. How did tt happen? Ask qing... haha... coz both of them were eyeing on the same popiah and we all juz started chatting. He's a really charismatic guy, with a wealth of experience... Very nice guy to spend about half an hour sharing with us his experiences and forfeiting the chance of savouring the dim sum on his plate. He even offered his namecard although I tot we shd be requesting for it... However, he din offered us any jobs... haha! But the most pressing question I wanna ask him was... Will we get discounts if we patronise his restaurant??? haha!!! *Just Kidding* Wedesday was my second and last day volunteering at GMS. It's business networking night which i signed up for. I went early with Chin Yuen coz we were supposed to do our proj before tt, but end up we juz chop chop divide the job and went for a snack/meal before the event. Well, we got to listen to a hot speech by a guy and then attended the business networking night. Wasnt able to put my interpreting skills to use, which is a pity... And no food for us by the time we went there, which is also a pity... haha! But overall, I tink it's still an experience for me to witness such an event. -------------------------------------------------------------- It's been a long time since i really set down to blog... sometimes it really set me down thinking about certain social issues. What do I mean by this??? Recently I kinda felt tt if you are good, ppl will alwaz give u another chance to prove urself if u made mistakes... but if u are bad, ppl will condemn you forever... life's so unfair isnt it? Unfortunately, that's the way reality bites... I simply felt that some stuff are not meant to be done tt way, but can I have a say in it? Nope I dont... For to say it, it will to hurt relationships or even the impression ppl have on you... As much as I dont wanna "be taken advantage of", I have to accept that no everyone is so accomodating to your feelings... Just live with it???
