firsts

Christmas season - first christmas at 3M!!! can you believe it? the people are so cool... every desk you will find gifts and cards from colleagues just next desk...

Christmas evee - first christmas eve with Yihui at his place... finishing pizzas and watching dvd... uber cool! just the 2 of us....

Christmas time - first time ice-skating... i really enjoyed it! did not feel as graceful as i imagine though (this is bad, bec in the v first place... i did not imagine myself to be graceful... sigh) but i m so glad that Yi hui likes it too!!! :) 1 step closer to our white christmas?

Boxing day - first boxing day with logcake and fruit basket at 3M.... shake hands with big shots!!!! (haha... okok so thats a little pathetic)

29 dec - first leave of absence from 3M... going Genting with Yi hui.... our FIRST overseas trip... i wonder how it will turn out.... you know what they say... it is either make or break.... and currently, with my sickly body... (running nose, sore throat)... it is looking bad but well mind over matter eh?

wishing everyone a lovely christmas time ( i know im late but better than never)... may your life be full and rich... may it be full of nice surprises and miracles and esp. miracles...

going Batam for team bonding

hi guys... will be going Batam tomorrow for a 2 day 1 night team bonding session....

But that is not the main story...
the main story is Grace caused lots of trouble and is sorry for it....
I will never do it again!!!!!
Made my boss really upset and cause my colleague to kena with me... haiz...
i feel so guilty man.

Twilight

The book that spawn the movie that spawn my buying behavior for the books.... watched it... not bad really... it is a not so typical story line i would say....anyways... i got pals that just touch down a few days ago... cant wait to meet up with YH (not my bf)...

thats it... got to do stuff now

conversations in a coffee shop

my team and i had a sumptuous dinner at Mellben at AMK. 1 butter crab, 1 chill crab, 1 crab beehoon soup, drunken prawn, fried chicken, mantou and scallop with broccoli. damn nice! total with drinks round off to $300 for 8 person. who paid? technically it is my supervisor :) hee

then after that... my colleagues and i went for coffee... :) at one of the coffee shops in AMK. haha of cos no one drank coffee... it is just a term we use. we talked about work... a little... and about the more fun stuff... we talked about other people.... and D&D... and then i cant rem how... but we talk about fortune telling... and i learnt so much, so much about them... In relating their experiences with Chen shifu, i am present with bits and pieces of their life... of their past, of their current worries and their dreams and goals... and i also get to know more about their character...

how unexpected, that re-telling an experience one had with a fortune teller could be so revealing yet captivating too for the people listening... i feel as if i had just watch a great movie or as if i had read a good book.... i really enjoyed it.. of cos i wont be repeating what was said there and then... :) at least not on my blog...

anyways, i feel that i am more included after going with them...and that i got to know them better in some ways... it was great :)

the entry caused by seeing something i rather not

blogging on someone else's computer... feels like im using someone else's undergarments... awkward.

but anyway.. that was just a side note to myself... that maybe it isnt so wise to do it.. fiddling with someone else's private property... hm... can you guess it? yup.... i saw somethings i rather not see. Hrumph...

so let me write a little...since my fingers are already in motion...

the reason why people write. 

1. some write as an outlet... they want to tell people, the power of the pen/press whatever... they hope to convince you of what they have to say, to make you react and etc. etc. etc.

2. some write as a record... they want to look back in time and see how they were.. these people are mostly thinking aloud... 

of cos, most people do not fall in such nice category.. they just do both/one or the other while they write... also... they dont think much... about why the write... we just do.

i look thr my writings in the old blog as well as the new... and find that i have often write more as a means of recording my feelings... throughout the time... i have always wonder if people actually read my blog... now i know a few does... i secretly wish my blog is well-read thr but i can live even if it isnt. 

my writings consist of histories of my life, my musing on life and death (just some less lighthearted entries), trying my clumsy hands at poetry... and other even more random stuff... i am no J.K Rowling... no editors at Cleo/Times... not any poet striving for fame. but i know... my writings are honest... like me. lay my pumping heart in hand for you to plunge a knife thr- kinda honest...

the angst stage has past me by.... maybe with the years in my life that begins with "1"... the incoherent yet dramatic prose and vague unfulfilled sad stories with no leading man/woman... so young... so long ago... cant imitate... can only be myself...

what i saw.... not impt to you... it is something for me to resolve... do not worry your pretty heads over me my dears... because grace is strong... she will make do and make do happily... because she is well supported by each and everyone of you... im lucky i have you.. do you know? if no one tells you that... let me shout it to you "I AM SO FORTUNATE TO HAVE FRIENDS LIKE YOU IN MY LIFE!" you guys are the greatest... thank you.

now, i will have to pull myself together and surf this tsunami! ( surf boards ready?)
