I'm always putting on a normal facade and trying to act like everything's alright.Staying like this, i feel like i'm not going anywhere at all.Whenever i'm back, and i know its just on my part that i always felt like this.Feeling like i'm lacking, and ugly compared to the rest.And then envy and jealousy will consume me.I know this negativity comes from within me solely.But as i stay here, this negativity never fades, no matter how much i try to convince myself to get rid of those thoughts and emotions.I wanna break free, from this shell that i hide in.Can i improve myself and be a better person when i'm like this?Caught in my own trap while searching for a way out?What can i do?Can somebody just light that path for me to walk on.I need it badly.Cos i wanna stop with this pretense.Before i finally snap.Please.

Hi blog, its a wonder that I can still remember the password.
Oh wait, of course I would, and I definitely should get it changed.
Don't want to always be reminded of that everytime i log in, would I.

Anyway, lets update on what's been happening these past month or so.
Well, the kids returned to school, and brought with them the never ending flu.
Two of the kids in my class has transferred out, Finlay and Eleni.
The two best buddies.
Haha...i'm seriously going to miss both of them.
Especially Finlay. The little pompom head that I've got to be close with.
Its so heartbreaking to see them go.
But oh well, nothing is permanent.
I wish both of them all the best and pray that they will grow up well.
I seriously miss both of them now.

Its Ramadan right now and today was the 2nd day of fasting!
How fast can it be?
Really, time wait for no one, man.
And soon, the year is going to end and then it will be 2012.
Anyway, to all the Muslims out there, Selamat menjalani ibadah puasa!

Its true what they all have been saying.

People comes and goes.

And in my case, I have no idea why this person just goes silent all of a sudden.

Really all of a sudden.

Makes me go sad and mad and disappointed all at the same time.

I've always been disappointed lots of times, I guess, but that's life.

You won't be able to get everything you desire.

Oh well, you just have to make do with whatever you have.

And never ever be greedy.

So I'll wish you all the best in life.

And take care of yourself.

Gosh! I've been sick for the past 4 days, 5 if you include today.
High fever, on and off, on and off.
Alhamdulillah, I feel so much better now that the fever's all gone.
Missing work and the adorable kids.! Awwwww!!
Hope everything will be the same when I return to school on Monday.
Please let it be.
Gonna crossed my fingers and pray with all might. Haha...

I really thought I'd gotten the dengue fever since I was bitten by an aedes mosquito last week.
Thankfully it is not!! Phew!

To my mama who's in the hospital right now.
Please don't be too sad, mama.
Redhakan ape yg telah terjadi, k.
You can't change anything that has happened.
You will just have to live on and make do with what you have.
I'll always be here for you, don't think that your world is over.
It is definitely not.
I love you lots and lots mama.
I will visit u soon, InsyaAllah.

I think I really need to change my password for this blogger.
Everytime i type in my password, i'll feel a little upset.
Dun ask me why, I'm not gonna explain.

And today I seriously feel much more tired than usual.
I guess maybe its due to the fact i've been running around chasing the kids all the time.
I was thrown to the Playgroup class today since one of their teachers are absent.
And the kids being 2 yrs old n below, they tend to only stay still for a short period of time.
While they are moving about, these children will almost always get into some sort of an accident, which will end up with them crying their eyeballs out.
And thats the reason why i need to always be on my toes.
Their safety is the most important.
But I missed spending time with the kids in my own class.
And today we had the rain experiential learning.
I wanted to do that activity together with them.
Awwwwww..............................

Yesterday I had a wonderful time with my sis and our frens from our workplace.
We went to Marina Bay Sands to visit out colleague and fren who was transfered there.
It was our first time visiting the place.
And I think its a really beautiful place.
We went out to a place where it overlook the s'pore river.
Its totally an amazing scenery, especially at night.
I can just sit there and stare at the river water all night, without doing anything else.
Love the atmosphere, but I kind of recall some memories.
Makes me tear up a little.
Oh well, what's gone is gone.
My fault too, I guess.
Alright, below are some pics that we took while over there.

And there's the birthday girl who turned 20 two days ago.

Kak Noor bought her an oreo cheesecake.

Yummy!!!!

And also, it was my first time dressing up!

Hahahaha!!!

My first time wearing tights too!

I felt so uncomfortable, really.

Feel as though I'm not wearing any pants. Haha!!

Oh well...............

But overall, its was a well spent Saturday!!

"HAPPY VESAK DAY!!!"

And it's raining! Its so nice to be home in this kind of weather, don't you think so?
But somehow today, its making me feel kind of melancholic.
I can't figure out why my heart feels so heavy.
Oh well, just gonna let it be......I'm sure its just a momentary thing.

Anyway, there's some things that's been on my mind.
The death of Osama, and then the people who's avenging his death.
I don't care that he's dead, and people, what has been done is done!
He did a bad thing in the first place, and so..........you people should just get a life and move on man!
How can u, as a muslim, kill others? Is that what u'll call a peaceful religion?
I think not.
I may not know much, but I do know that killing and being hostile will lead to nowhere.
Can't people just get along with each other??
Urgh.....I'm giving myself a headache pondering about this matter........

I really feel that I'm turning into a real workaholic.
Work work and work is the only thing that I've been doing.
The free time I have I used it to rest, and spent it with my family.
Where is my social life? Haha, I wonder too.....
And I need to save up for the course that I want to take.
Cut down on shopping pls, Yasmin!!!!

These few days hasn't been that good to me.
Firstly, i was thrown to another sch like so suddenly to cover for a sick teacher.
Okayy...thrown is kind of an exaggeration.
But its still too sudden.
I don't like to be in a new place when i'm off guard.
It'll make me feel withdrawn, and it sure did.
The school was okay, i admit, but its much more fun back in Linden.
And i miss the kids in my class!!
Oh well, lucky its just for 2 days.

And yesterday while at my part time work, my temper almost erupted like a volcano.
All because of this customer.
As a Dairy Farm staff, they should know that they have to first produce to the cashier the staff discount card before they make the payment.
You gave me the voucher, which is a form of payment first, i keyed in already and then you take out ur discount card.
Of cos its too late!!
The register won't be able to process the discount anymore!
And u still dare to blame me.
Like as if i know u are a staff. Man!
Very fortunate that i still have a little bit of patience left in me.
.......

And today wasn't perfect either.
I won't mentioned it here.
Whatever it is, well, i'm already used to this.
Won't get myself affected, hopefully.

Let's make it short and sweet, since I don't have the time to write a long grandmother's story.
I've been working at Whitelodge for almost 3 weeks already.
Getting used to the routine over there.
And I'm loving the job.
The kids are super adorable, though a few are so thick headed, and impossible to handle them.
But I hope as time goes by, I will be able to do so.
Okay, I wish I can write longer, but time is short.
I need to rest cos tomorrow's gonna be a long day for me.
And before I end, I'm gonna share a photo.
Two adorable boys, Alex and Finlay.
Best buddies. Haha.

I seriously just realised that i love being and working with children.
Its tiring, no doubt, but super fun!
So i went for the one day trial as a trainee teacher yesterday, and i have to say:
I totally love it!
Some of the kids are quite hard to handle, but that's where the challenge lies.
Each kid has different needs, i know.
But every one of them needs care and attention.
And I got the job, will be starting this coming monday.
Yayyy! And i got to see the same children again!
I tell you, the kids are super adorable.
Really really cute.
The job pays quite little but i don't care.
I love what i'll be doing and that matters more to me than the money.
So yeah! Don't hold me back.
Who knows of the opportunities that awaits me.
I'm gonna work hard! InsyaAllah.

Its been a month since I updated this blog.
Things happened, but the only thing that can be done is just to move on.
Try not to commit the same mistakes again in the future.
And there's no point dwelling in the past.

As for now, I'm just living my life as it is.
Day by day.
Looking forward into the future though.
I'm going for a one day trial as a trainee teacher on the 22nd.
And if I do well on that day, I'll officially get the job.
Insyallah everything will go smoothly.
And I must work hard. =D

Finally i can post some new pics now that i've changed my phone. And my hp number as well. Got myself a touch phone this time, a Samsung Galaxy Ace. Hehe.
Okay, i'm not going to post anything long this time, gonna keep it short and simple.
To Annane, i hope and pray that you will recover soon, dear.
We will always worry about you, and we want you to go back to the way you were before.
Be strong, girl!

I have no idea what to write, but I guess I'll just update the very few things that happen since my last post.

First of all, i've made my decision final. The decision? To steer my education path to a new one. But for now I'm going to find a job, help my family out first and then I can resume my studies. I have not lost track of my ambitions, mind you. It seems more have been added to the list. Lol.

Soon if not already, you'll be hearing complaints from people due to the increasing temperature especially during the day. We as a human being have lots to complain, don't we? Haha. Cold weather, complain, hot weather also complain. Which one you'd rather have? Me, i'll go with cold. Can't stand the heat. I'll feel lousy when I get all sweaty and red in the face. Haha.

Oh yeah, heard from my mom that there's a pervert on the loose who has been stealing women n children's clothing. Gosh, so people if you are living in hougang, the vicinity where i'm staying at, please be aware. Thank you and good night. Lol.

Do u see me bragging abt the things i did?
No...i do those things bcos i want to help, not for the reason of sucking up to someone.
Like u just did.
If u want to help, please do so with a sincere heart and a clean mind.
Think about the feelings of others who've done the exact same things as you did.
And to see you bragging about it so openly.
What do you think they'll feel?
Like as if you're the one who has been doing those things all the time.
I hope you change that mindset of yours.
If you have that intention of doing those things just because you want to get the credit and the praises, think again.

Its time to move on, now that I'm back at the starting point.
Never am I going to give up my lifelong dreams.
No way am I gonna do that.
I will still strive to achieve.
If I fall down I'm gonna get back on my feet.
Find e path again if i'm lost.
And if I find myself engulfed in darkness I will search for the light till I find it.
So there.

You know that I'm living in a huge household.
Its happy and everything but sometimes I just felt that I dun fit in.
(Please note that I said sometimes only okay.)
I kind of feel like I'm unimportant and I feel different from the rest of my siblings.
Is it all just in my mind?
Oh well, I hope these feelings will pass soon.

How irresponsible can someone be?
There was almost an accident and if it were to happen, I would be one of the victims of that accident.
And it happened when me and my sister was crossing the traffic light.
The green man has just lighted up and we had just crossed a few steps.
When this white taxi just zoomed past us.
And it was directly in front of us.
I'm really grateful and thankful to Allah for protecting us.
If my leg were a little bit further out, the taxi would have ran over my foot.
And I'm also thankful that my sis were walking beside me and not in front of me.
If anything were to happen to her, I dunno what I'd do.
Seriously, what is wrong with the driver?
Gone mad? Drunk? But it was in broad daylight.
The taxi was so fast that when I turned my head, it was already gone.
I wanted to capture the plate number, but it was impossible to do so, with that kind of speed.
Thinking about this incident just give me the chills, man.
Okay, that's it, must get that thought out of my mind.

And below is a pic of me and my youngest sis.
Isn't she cute?? =)))))

I do have a lot of things on my mind, but I dare not let it out on this space of mine.
I'm feeling a little bit melancholic nowadays.
I keep telling myself not to be too over-sensitive, but i can't help it.
My brain's sensitive, I guess.

I made some decisions, though it is not finalized yet.
I will not disclose any information until everything is over, so be patient, and don't pressurize me into telling you.
But this decision I've made, I've thought a lot before making up my mind.
I don't really care what you'll say, but hope that you'll understand me, not ridicule me.
Respect the decision I've made.
And I know this is not the end, but will be a new beginning and chapter in my life.

The first day of a new year, 2011 it is.
Had the longest talk with my dad today, one to one.
And I'm glad we had the talk.
You can say it was a very emotional talk, so you have the idea of how it goes.
And I realized my mistake, my fault, the sin in which I've created.
I wish I could undone what I've done, but I know that's impossible.
I'm sorry dad for hurting you without knowing it.
I've learnt my lesson and will try to think wiser from now on.
Not to see and think blindly.

Confessed about something else too.
And glad that he did not get mad, and tried to be understanding too.
Whatever happened has happened, and we can't dwell too much on it.
We need to carry on, and deal with it as we go, if it needs to be dealt with.

And thus I say: HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone!!!
Let's put our best foot forward and try to make 2011 a better year than 2010!!
=)))))))))))

Wow, Christmas comes and goes that fast, huh.
Well, now awaiting the oncoming new year. 2011.
I have to say, time really flies, whether you like it or not. And it will wait for no one.
I have yet to start listing down my new year's resolutions. Will try to do so soon. >.<

Nowadays, I tend to talk to myself a lot, especially at work. Haha. You can say that I'm grumbling to myself.
Can't stand all those customers asking me ridiculous questions and requests.
And one more thing, I'm a cashier, not a walking directory, alright?
When you ask me a direction to a place that I myself have not heard of, I kindly answered that I wasn't sure and pointed you to the concierge where you may present your inquiries.
And what was your reaction? The rolling of the eyes, unhappy faces.
I think a simple 'thank you' would suffice, right?
Hello, would you like it if I gave you an anyhow direction?
Lets see how you'll like it when you'll get lost. And then you'll come back and blame me. -__-

Right now, I'm so feeling excluded, please don't ask me why.
And feeling kind of lonely right now too. Haha.
Should I watch some funny videos to cheer myself up? Maybe I should.
And get this weird feelings off me.

Today is Wednesday and I am super bored at home. Can't go shopping as I'm flat broke, and waiting for my pay to come in.
And thus here I am, sitting in front of my laptop and staring at it, thinking of what I can do other than watching dramas, facebooking, or doing my school assignments.
As I sit and stared, my mind wondered for a moment. Wondered to those times when my black cat was still with us. Bel was his name.

He was an adorable cat, a friend and a family member that we loved and treasured..

He left this world two years ago this month, due to an illness that has advanced too much to be cured.

Remembering him now bring tears to my eyes, and those memories that we shared.

When he left us in the morning of Christmas Eve, exactly 2 years ago, he left while I was still in slumber.

I woke up feeling something was amiss and when I found him missing, I knew that he had finally left us, and be free from his sufferings.

I still miss him sometimes, like now. Haha, gosh I'm crying by myself.

No matter how long its been, he will always be a part of our family, in our hearts and in our minds.

I finally changed my blogskin after a long time contemplating and searching for a new blogskin. Decided to just go with a simple blogskin design, with minimal colours. I have no mood for colourful stuffs at the moment.

And I have been slacking these past few days.
Other than work and school work, there's not much thing left for me to do.
I got rid of the huge pile of mess in my room, and I'm proud of it. Lol. But I admit that the room is much more spacious now, and I don't stumble over things anymore.

Went jogging this morning. Managed to jog n brisk walk for an estimated distance of 5.4km. I really prefer to jog when the sun has not risen up yet. Its more cooling. Gonna keep training till I can at least jog non-stop for 1km. At least. Haha.

So Christmas is just around the corner, and I'm sure there will be more customers coming in and out from my workplace, doing last minute shopping and such.
I will be working on the day of the holiday itself, but why put me at the B4 Atrium???
Will surely be congested, and furthermore, I'm the only cashier in the evening. I hope I'll survive.

15 December 2010

2010-12-15T14:41:00.002+08:00

I finally went for a jog this morning. Wooohooo! Gonna start jogging everyday if possible, to make it a routine. Wanna try and lose some weight that I've put on since secondary school. I have not been physically active since I quit JC, but I'm gonna try to train myself so I can run again like last time. Not to say that I'm a good runner, its the opposite really, but I want to feel fit and healthy. Who doesn't right? So all the best to me, must persevere and never give up!! =))

2010-12-13T22:02:00.002+08:00

Why do I always feel so out of sorts these days? And I get annoyed really easily too. I'm always trying to find ways to keep my mind occupied and not to dwell on the matter any longer. I tried, but its hard. Something is embedded in my heart and I wish to shout it out loud so the whole world knows my emotions, my thoughts, my worries and concern but I'll guess I'll just hide them within me for the time being. How I wish I could be more outspoken since I've always been the quiet type of person. I may be smiling and laughing out loud, but deep inside, I might be hurting and crying. Gosh, I sound so depressed. I assure you that I am not, I know better than to be all depressed and feeling useless, I just need someplace to unburden all my stress.

School's out for a few weeks, but I'll guess this short vacation will be spent on me working, and not to mention completing my school assignments. So I guess I'll have my hands full. Alright, for now, I want to sit back and relax and continue with the korean drama that I've neglected these weeks. Chalja~~~

Wow, I'm blogging at 4 plus in the morning. Somebody please, just shoot me, this school project is mentally and physically killing me, man. I'm trying not to give up, but the state that I'm in right now, its just so tempting to do so. I'm telling you, almost the whole cohort of yr 3 interior design students are almost at their limit, and I am one of them. I hope and wish that I'll be able to graduate next year. Thus, I guess I need to work triple times harder starting from now. Smile, as I do my work, and try to have positive thoughts. Yeah, I will try to do that. Will try, no promises, so ciao people, have to return to my sch work right now.

Just came back home from Vivo City, took tons of pictures and the photo above is one of my favorites. Hehe. I love walking around the roof garden, and stare out to the sea, or just at the clouds, in fact. I have no idea why but I totally enjoy staring at the clouds. I feel that the clouds are kind of amazing and very beautiful, and I will find myself lost in wonderment of it. Well, I really love nature and being anywhere near it makes me feel very calm and at peace.

Alright, back to my project and lots of brainstorming to do. Till then!

23 November 2010

2010-11-23T20:34:00.001+08:00

Time for me to complain again. Yay. Alright here's my first complain of the day. To those who always rush into the train when the doors open, HAVE YOU NO BRAIN?!! Can't you at least let us alight first before you ambush?? It will be soooo much faster and less messier if you just do that. And nobody will get stuck at the door, pushing past each other to get out or to get in. Saves time and there will be less pissed off people, including me. I wish they'd do that, seriously.

First complaint done, here comes the next one. Sometimes I feel so much older than my real age. Looks older too. I dun feel all that youthful, since I dun really get to do those activities people my age would do. Like.....going out with my friends as much as I can. I would like to do that very much. I want to be independent, but being cooped up at home won't allow me to be so. Being at home so much will definitely get me sooo much fatter, no matter how much I try to exercise to stay in shape. Sorry, if you are reading this, please just bear with my complains and whining. I just need a place to put my thoughts and emotions into. I really want to speak out, but am afraid you would just rebut me with all the reasonings that you have and leave me with nothing else to say. People ask how I could stand this but what can I do? Run away from home? You may do that but I know better than to do that. They did so much for me, and will running away solve anything? I dun think so. Of cos I feel pressurized and at times I get jealous of my friends who get that freedom to do as they like. What else can I do than to just continue my life as it is and hope the freedom I get will increase gradually. Hmmm, so I guess this is everything to do with freedom?

Alright that's enough of my whining. I need a life plan, man.

Gangs are still present in Singapore?? Gosh, it feels sooo outdated. I thought gangs are already way in the past. I still remember when I was in secondary sch and there will be speakers and policemen coming to the school to give us talks about these gangs and gangsters. I mean, its alright to have gangs, where friends gather together to hang out and such, but I don't get why they resort to violence, and attacking random people. I know that those whom they called themselves gangsters mostly joined the gangs to get away from the problems they are facing, or to feel a sense of belonging and what else, but I'm sure there are tons of other ways other than getting violent. And hurting others is just wrong. Don't they even feel a little bit guilty? If they want attention, or let's say, respect from the society, they could do much better than being violent gangsters who only do negative things to get that attention. And you will not be respected for hurting others or doing bad stuffs. Definitely not. Why not, with all the time you have, do something good and make the society be aware of your good deeds, rather than the bad ones, and find your worth from there. Am I making sense of all this? I may not be right, but this is exactly what I feel. Let people see you with clean eyes rather than wary ones. It will be so much better, for you, and for everyone else. And people will respect you for who you are and not the you who follows a gang to do bad stuffs.

Alright enough of the gang stuffs. Its giving me a headache for no apparent reason. Lets talk about me and what's been happening in my life. Haha. Right, so far, school has been stressing as usual, and I have a presentation this coming Monday. Gosh, that's another headache for me. I'm the first person to present for this critique session......and I have no idea what I have or going to say. Sigh, well I just have to try. I know I'm going to be shoot at by the tutors so I shall prepare myself for it.

Hmm, other than school, there's not much that happen to me. Wait, there's some incidents that can't seem to remove themselves from my head. One was a week ago, while I was on my way home from work, and it was raining. I had to buy an umbrella from NTUC. And halfway away from home, there was this sudden strong wind, so strong that it almost took my umbrella away with it and I had to hold on with both hands. And in the end I had to walk the rest of the way under the rain as the umbrella wouldn't go back to its original shape, it was totally inverted. I was even laughing as I walked as fast as I could under the rain. Hahaha!!! The umbrella is still inverted even till now. There is no way I could find to get it back to its original shape. Oh well. But this incident is still embarrassing to me!! Haha.

And to this one person, I have to say I miss you lots and lots and lots. Just so you know. Wish we could hang out and have lots of enjoyable moments together, like we used to. =))))

I would like to wish Happy Deepavali to all those who's celebrating this festive occasion. Hope you will enjoy the holiday, and spend time with your loved ones. =D

I think its been almost a month since I logged in to this blog of mine. Many many many things have happened since my last post but it might be best not for me to retell all the details. Happy things happen, stressful things happened too. It might be a balance of the two, or it might not. The happy things that happened I wished they would last forever, but I know that's just too much to ask for. So I am grateful for what I have right now, and would not ask for more.

As for sch, this whole week a wire workshop was conducted in our studio, as a relaxation week for us, which now, I can say, is definitely not. We are required to create a creature of at least two animals and to use the wire to construct the sculpture. Seriously, how much can you do in less than 3 days? Not much, obviously. Plus we still have our FYP things to complete. Yeah, thinking about FYP, I am in deep %&*#. Sorry, cannot say that out loud, for I am trying my best not to say vulgar things. Haha. Okay, back to the wire workshop. I decided to combine a panda and a butterfly. I know, how can a heavy bear fly, rite? Haha!! There's no crime in creating a creature from 2 of my favourite animals, right? Its my right to decide. Hehe. So below is a picture of my sculpture. Though its not yet completed, but I've already built up the structure, the bear and the wings. BUT!! It has missing hands!! Hahaha, sorry couldn't get to it on time.

And finally, below are some pics that are taken at my workplace, when I came over to wait for my sister who was finishing her shift. As crazy as she can be, she likes to wear the halloween masks so much tt I took photos with her, Lol. Below are some of the pics.

And the photo below is of me and Mabel, our checkout supervisor, posing at the new store's dining set which is just outside our store.

Okay, I think I've written lots for this post, so gonna shut off for now, since its already way past midnight. And before my father opens his mouth to tell me to shut off. Hehe, goodnight everyone, and enjoy the long weekend!!

Work was busy today, with so many customers buying so many heavy things, and now my arms are feeling the aftereffects. Haha. I just hope I won't get muscle aches. It will be very troublesome. Lol. And tomorrow I will be working in the morning. Please let me have a smooth, no trouble work tomorrow. Don't be like earlier today, where I have to face with so many machine problems. I think now I dislike counter 4, or it could be the other way around. Everytime I use that counter, there will always be problems. Always. -_-
An incident occurred in the store tonight, around 8 plus. A child who sat in the basket which was resting on the trolley fell down head first when the basket toppled over. There was this horrible sound like a watermelon dropping on the floor. My heart was thumping so loud when I realized it was the boy. And of course he cried so loud, continuously, even after I called my manager out to help, to bring out the first aid kit. My manager brought the family down to the Pharmacy which was located at B4. I hope the boy is okay. Hey, even though the skull is hard, you won't really know what's been affected if it's hit with tremendous force. There could even be a massive trauma to the brain. And that boy is still very small, still growing. So, I really hope that he's fine. =)
That aside, today during work, I had quite a number of oops moment. Haha. You know how I everytime greet the customer, 'Hi Sir', or 'Hi Ma'am', to realize that the customer is not that gender. Hahaha! I couldn't tell, really. Especially this one customer, which is a guy and looks totally like a girl. Luckily he's that don't care type, so he didn't say anything, when I called him a 'Ma'am'. Phew. I should just skip the Sir and the Ma'am part, that would keep me from embarrassing myself. Maybe I should do that. Haha.....

I found this song on youtube, Bless the Broken Road by Rascal Flatts, one of my favourite bands. I heard this song very long time ago and listening to it again after all this time, well, I decided to share with you guys. I think Gary LeVox, the lead vocalist of the group has one of the most beautiful voices that can reach people's hearts. And I've provided you guys with the lyrics, below. =)) Okay, hope you enjoy the video!!

Rascal Flatts - Bless The Broken Road

I set out on a narrow way many years ago
Hoping I would find true love along the broken road
But I got lost a time or two
Wiped my brow and kept pushing through
I couldn't see how every sign pointed straight to you

[Chorus:]
Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart they were like Northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

I think about the years I spent just passing through
I'd like to have the time I lost and give it back to you
But you just smile and take my hand
You've been there you understand
It's all part of a grander plan that is coming true

[Chorus]

Now I'm just rolling home
Into my lover's arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you.

Which one should I put as my first pick? I still can't choose!! Gosh, I need to do so fast, the closing submission for my choices is this coming Wednesday. 1, 2 or 3? I feel like putting number 1 as the first on my list, but I'm sure lots of my course mates will have the same choices, since number one seemed like the most interesting out of the three. Not to mention that the project briefs are all mind-boggling which make my brain ache. Lol. So, I have to prepare myself for the busy and stressful semester ahead of me, which will start in a week's time.
All stressful things aside, I have to admit that I'm feeling very cheerful for quite sometime. I feel very light hearted and somehow I see everything in a positive way. Ever since a certain cute and charming someone enters my life, my world has been full of sunshine moments. You know who you are. Hehehe!! You are cute to me no matter what you say. Hahaha!!

~ I can't really find the words to explain the way I feel...all I can say is that I like the feeling.

I can't believe three days passed by so fast. I can't really feel or monitor the time anymore. It is just that fast. I went for my POS training on Tuesday and had my assessment test yesterday. I have to say that the training was fun! At the start I felt that attending this training was so mundane, since I've been a cashier for over a year now. BUT, there are lots of knowledge that I gained from attending the three days. I'm glad that I went for the training. And I passed the test, and received my red certified pin. Hehehe! Now I don't have to worry about the training and everything anymore. I'm a qualified cashier. Yooohooo!! hahaha......Everyone in the training course passed the test in fact. Yeah, that's great. Congratulation to all of us. =)

~ Anything can be fun when you make it so.

Finally I get to meet my bestie after such a long time. How long was it since we've seen each other? Hmmm, maybe around a year or so? We went to Cineleisure to watch a movie, and we managed to get the tickets for 'The Other Guys'. And I have to say the movie is quite good. Very hilarious, especially Will Ferrell. Such a joker guy. Hahaha.....and Mark Walhberg acting in a comedy is unexpected. His character is different from the ones he usually play in his other action movies. But it suits him really well. Haha. The only thing that I don't like is how loud the sound system is. Its sooooo loud!! I have sensitive ears, so my eardrums were throbbing after each loud burst or explosions that came from the movie.

And here are some pictures that we took during our hang-out. =))

That's the girl, my best friend from secondary school. Nads. Haha. Took the pic while we were eating at Burger King, since we have an hour to go before the movie starts.

A failed attempt to capture the both us in the camera. My fault. Hahaha.........only my big face can be seen clearly. =P

And after the movie, with my hair undone since my hair was very messy from resting my head against the chair.

And big smiles from the both of us. Hehehe.........I truly miss her alot, wish I could spend longer hours with her, but have to go home early, don't want my father to scold me. Hahaha. We will meet soon again, dear, and I promise we will hang out together longer. =))))))

~ You may have many friends surrounding you, but TRUE friends are really hard to come by

2010-10-01T13:10:00.001+08:00

I finally turned 21 yesterday!! Yayyyy!! And I think this birthday is my most special birthday. Hehe, thanks to that someone who've made me this happy =). I wish....i wish......there's a lot of things that I want to wish for, but not yet. Not yet. I have to be patient and see all this through and hope that when that day comes, everything will be fine and dandy. My family is important to me, they are the one who've been with me through thick and thin. And I love them all very much. Sarangheyo!!
I also would like to thank all of you who've wished me for my birthday. You've made my day an enjoyable one! Though I had to work on my birthday, but just thinking that I'm not forgotten makes me so happy!! And also to that someone who keeps me company. Thanks guys. I really appreciate it. =)))))

~ Small gestures will make a great difference.

2010-09-28T19:54:00.000+08:00

I'm going training nxt week. And I'm training for the things I've already known. Uurrghhh.....POS training. Hellooo....how long have I been working as a cashier? 1 yr and 4 mths, that's how long I've been one. But I guess its crucial for us to at least go for the training, and get the badge, so they won't bother us anymore, yeah? So I'll try my best to pass the test that we'll be having on the third day of the training. Oh yeah, and I'll be going to the training together with Winnie. Yay! At least I'm not going alone, I'll have someone to talk to and bully! Hehehee.......

~ It is a joy to have a friend by your side.

2010-09-25T15:07:00.000+08:00

Sometimes I just don't understand these people. One moment they are happily laughing together, next, they will be arguing and shouting at each others head. They argue like they are to the point of strangling each others throat and the next moment I look at them, they will be laughing again. Omigosh, so confusing, but I like it. Like as they said it, 'Let bygones be bygones', no point dwelling in something that's not worth wasting your time.
And I managed to lose 2kgs in 4 days! Gonna keep it up. Mind you, I'm not dieting, ok, the loss is purely from exercising. And of course, watching what I eat. Moderation, people. That's important.

~ Anything is possible when you put your mind, heart, and soul into it.

2010-09-23T21:49:00.001+08:00

Sometimes I think that guys are sooooo typical when it comes to girls. Well, not all guys, but lots of them that I've come into contact with are as such. Its true what they say that its hard to find a really good guy, almost to the point of being impossible. Being friends are fine with me, but if you want to say being together as a couple, er, I might take a rain check. No offense guys, I'm not talking about anyone specific. So, back to my point, the first thing they ask is 'what's your height and weight?' I mean is that even important? I don't know about you guys, but for me, if I want to get to know someone, the first I ask will definitely not be 'what's your appearance like? Are you handsome and tall, what's your height and your weight?" Knowing all of that should come later, don't you think so? To me, being able to know what that someone's like is the most important to me. The person's likes and dislikes, and the way the person think is very important to me as well. Sigh. I know not all of you are like that, so don't get angry with me, I'm not stereotyping anyone.

~ Beauty lies in the heart of a person.

2010-09-20T16:24:00.006+08:00

Seriously pissing me off, you ungrateful little @$#%@^@. You even dare to make me feel guilty when it's not even my fault. Be thankful that I didn't scream at your face. Don't try to test my patience, I'm gonna explode once I've had enough.

~ Everyone has their own limits. Don't overstep it.

2010-09-18T14:13:00.003+08:00

Hi blog, we meet again, i have no idea who's been reading my post so i'm gonna leave it at that. Over the past few days, I had some self-reflection moments. Over what I had done so far with my life and so forth. Decided that I'm gonna try and find a better me, try to come out from the shell that I've been hiding in. It's definitely not going to be a sudden change, but slowly, yeah, I'm gonna discover my inner being. The first step I'm taking on is to start my exercise regime again, and lose these 'too much' extra weight that I've put on since graduating secondary school. I believe my inner self-confidence might improve when I start to like my own body. So far, I definitely do not like what I see in the mirror. Don't take me wrong, I'm thankful that I am an able bodied but I would just like me to be more fitter than now. Alright, I'm stopping here since I've got to get ready for work. Gonna update more in the future to come.

~ There's always choices in life, you just need to choose the right one.

Action speaks louder than words

2010-09-15T18:49:00.003+08:00

Words don't mean anything if they've been thrown into the bin after being said. And the words you've said does not match with what you really are. Describing yourself with pretty little words does nothing to cover that up. Your actions will speak louder than the words you said, or written. I might suggest that you try to reflect upon yourself for being such a hypocrite person. I can go on and on continuously regarding your behavior, or your flaws which you called them in so many occasions. Behavioral flaws are there so people may notice and reprimand you, in order for you to realize and hence may change for the better. Physical flaws on the other hand, can't be changed, so nothing can be done about this matter. But never, ever, use your physical appearance to take advantage of others. Though you may not notice, but others close to you will know you for who you truly are and you can't run away from that.

~ The heart may hurt, but it will heal, definitely.

2010-09-15T18:29:00.002+08:00

How rude can you be?

You scolded me ~ or should I say, shouted at me.

And the way you do it, it all seems so fake.

Trying to show that you are such a big shot.

You've just made me hate you much more than before.

I used to like you a little.

Now my perceptions have totally reversed.

If you have scolded me and then advised me, there won't be this much emotions in me.

You scolded as if it was entirely my fault.

I have much flaws and I admit them.

You too have a lot of flaws which can be seen in plain sight.

Do you even know?

2010-09-13T23:51:00.002+08:00

I'm updating, after a~what?~almost a month of being MIA?
Yeah, let's just say some stuffs happened.
Don't ask me to elaborate on that.
Stuffs just happened.
Don't need for the world to know, yeah?

Alright, first and foremost, I would like to wish all muslimin and muslimat out there "Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri, Maaf Zahir Dan Batin."
Hope you guys have lots of enjoyable and memorable times spent together with your loved ones.
I sure did. Heheh.
And I uploaded some photos taken on the 1st day of Raya with the whole family, including a photo of the Honey Cornflakes that I made. :)

Me with my sister, Farizan who's sitting for her N-levels this year.
Ganbatte, girl! And study hard!!

The four eldest girls in the family.

Me and Anna, the girl who will forever be short. Muahahaha.....
~she looks like an auntie wearing that specs :x~

And finally, pictures of the whole family!!

2010-08-22T23:38:00.002+08:00

Woooo.......damn exhausted right now.

Just came back home from work.

Though the flow of customers weren't as busy as yesterday, I was standing for 7 hours straight.

Which is the reason why my legs are my aching right now.

No need for more exercise today.

Had all I need for today. Haha.

But seriously, my weight isn't going down at all.

I'm fasting and I'm watching what I am eating, not to mention doing exercises too.

Then why aren't i losing any weight????

Aaaaarrrghhhhhhhh!!!!!

So frustrating!!!

Ok, whatever, not losing any hope of slimming down.

Gonna get myself cleaned up and some beauty sleep.

Hah. Beauty sleep.

In my dreams.

2010-08-17T23:25:00.002+08:00

My head is currently in a tangled mess right now.

Oh wait, my life is too.

I wished all of this is over right now.

Get this heavy burden off my shoulders.

Wishing I could talk about all this to a person who won't criticize and procrastinate me.

Wanting a listening ear.

A shoulder to lean on.

Just someone whom I will really feel comfortable and have that full trust.

The trust that what we've shared will only be kept between us.

Sometimes I wonder what's really wrong with me.

What is this phase I'm going through?

Is the path I'm on the correct one?

This feeling of incompleteness truly disturbs me.

I want to break through these barriers and find myself.

Find the real me.

2010-08-15T01:07:00.002+08:00

I need a life!!

Gosh!!

There's nothing interesting happening to me, man!

My life feels so plain.

Need some excitement in it.

2010-08-14T23:52:00.000+08:00

Wow, it's been ages since I update this blog.

And quite some time since I visit.

Too busy, too little time. That's the reason.

Anyway, just came back from work.

Store was busy all through the day.

I don't feel that tired though I was fasting.

Heh.

However I'm losing my voice.

Had this bad sore throat for a few days.

And today my voice became like this.

Very hard to speak.

Sometimes I get frustrated.

I have to speak since I'm a cashier, right?

But with this time of voice, customers won't be able to hear clearly.

Thus I have to repeat over and over again, till my throat feels like its going to be torn apart.

I really hope my voice will recover soon.

Ok whatev.

Happy fasting to all muslimin and muslimat.

2010-06-20T21:34:00.003+08:00

I had a shock and almost a panic attack this morning.
My work was in the morning shift today.
As usual, mornings are the most boring since there weren't many customers.
And I was stuck at the counter with Winnie.
I won't open my mouth to reveal the problems with Winnie.
People who I'm close with will know.
Ok, back to the point.
It was 40 mins past 11 when a customer pointed out.
"There's a fire! A fire." While pointing his fingers towards the ceiling outside of our store.
I turned and he was right.
One of the ceiling lights were giving off sparks.
And those sparks are falling down below to other floors.
As I watched a fire appeared.
Burning the strip of layer of material that was the ceiling.
The strip hung down, fire ablaze.
And a part of it fell.
I heard gasps and murmurings from customers who were at 4th floor.
I was seriously worried, man.
I was scared if anybody was below when the burning strip fell.
Luckily, one of the concierge guys quickly grabbed a fire extinguisher and put out the fire.
The whole floor was fogged with the smoke.
Even the customer I was handling ran away, saying she will come back again.
But didn't even see a single hair of her again.
Oh well.......whatever.........................
Nevertheless, it was definitely a worrisome incident.
You can't know for sure, if the fire is really only that small.
It might lead to something much bigger and dangerous.
Woooo, I get the shivers just thinking about it.
Since I was standing not that far away from the source of fire.
I'm glad it's over, and everything's fine and dandy.

2010-06-19T23:53:00.002+08:00

Went to see the SP Daiko Drum Concert today.
I really like the performance.
Well, I don't really know that much about daiko but I do know that I have the interest at heart.
I can see that they have put in their utmost effort to make the show a success.
And I believe the audience have felt it.
Good job guys.
And Chia Fang, that's the chibi girl beside me in the picture above.
You did an impressive job, girl!!
Even if you said you were nervous or that you did a mistake while performing, it wasn't visible at all.
So give yourself a good pat at the back.

The intensity of the performance, the vigor, the enthusiasm really left me feeling motivated.
Somehow, I left the place with high spirits.
And also a grumbling stomach.
Hahahahaha............well, I didn't have anything to munch on since I woke up this morning.
Oh wait, I did ate one pack of Oheyo chips.
Which I emptied less than 5 mins.
I head over to my part-time job and ate a cup of tom yam noodles as I wait for my sis to finish her shift.
Went home together after that.

2010-06-16T23:52:00.000+08:00

Wow, yesterday was such a 'wonderful' day.
If you get my drift.
Want to know what kind of events occurred yesterday?
I'll tell you.

The figures on the clock showed that it was 35 mins past 5o'clock.
I have just stepped out from my house and had pressed the button on the lift.
While waiting for the lift to arrive, I heard a child's screams and cries.
I had thought that it could be just a kid who had gotten a scolding and was crying.
Wohohohohohoho................
When the lift door opened up, I was expecting to see a crying kid but with someone else.
Instead, I just saw one little boy alone, screaming and crying.
I stood staring at him for a moment, getting my thoughts cleared up.
Oh gawd, a lost kid.
The kid seemed to be Indian or Malay, can't really say.
Shit, what am I supposed to do?
I knocked on my door and told my mom I found a lost boy.
The kid was screaming even louder until I thought my eardrums had burst a vein or two.
Really, it was sooooo loud.
My mom told me she will handle the matter and told me to go or else I might be late for work.
Just as I was entering the lift, an indian guy appeared from the stairs.
I had no idea what he was talking about but I supposed he was looking for the kid.
By then the kid was screaming "mummy!!! Mummy!!!"
The guy said the mother was running after him.
And yeah, I saw a lady emerging from the stairs.
She dropped from my sight once she saw her son.
Fainted, I guess.
Oh well, all's well, then.
Thus I made my move.

Work was as per normal.
Except for the closing part, that is.
We had done all our settlements and counted all our money.
Suddenly, I heard a lady's voice from the door, that was supposed to be closed.
Gosh, it's the same lady from last time.
Wow, she was sooo clever to push open the door.
And as the last time, she was crying and looking all desperate.
Saying that she wanted to buy teeth products and that she really needed them
Went to watson but the people over there disregarded her.
Celeste, my sub-manager, gave her way.
Told Jason, a second-jobber cashier, to follow her to the items that she needed.
She took a long time, I tell you.
And while she was paying for the items, Jason motioned to me with his mouth, "Check her bag".
I was a bit confused until he wrote using his phone,
"She took some items in her bag."
I took his phone and shove it under Celeste's nose.
Hahahaha........but that person don't really know how to handle, man.
She kept asking the lady whether that was all the items that she needed.
And let her go just like that.
I can't really do anything much.
Just a part-timer, that's me.
So I have nothing else to say.
In the end, we left the store a few minutes before 11.
Ughhhhhhhhh.............................
Yeah, at least it ended.

2010-06-15T21:40:00.003+08:00

Watched all 20 episodes of Painter of The Wind.
Definitely a must watch.
Though I wished the ending was different and hope that they'll make a second season or something.
In actuality, I have no interest in these type of period dramas, but to those of you who has the same mindset as me, I suggest you try watching this drama.

I've started my exercise regime since yesterday.
Really had forgotten the feeling of that ecstasy when you feel all drained out and your muscles are screaming at you.
Let's hope I'll keep up this routine, yeah??

Finally the leggings that I ordered from the blogshop is here.
Woohooo.........gonna collect it this thursday.
Quite exciting, hur hur hur........................

And I feel that time is really moving too fast.
On the train this afternoon, I had a sudden vision of the time fast-forwarding and I was already a full-fledged adult.
Is there such a term?? Lol.
I mean I was already a forty-something woman and was wondering how I'll be like at that time.
Will I still be a clumsy, unknowledgeable person?
Or would I be a much wiser person?
It is quite interesting if you think about it.
Imagine yourself in the future.

2010-06-10T19:19:00.002+08:00

Feeling quite free and relaxed at the moment.
Since crit is over and school is out for 2 weeks.
Thus it is the time for me to catch up with my k-dramas.
Yahoo!!!!
I started watching Painter of The Winds.
Seriously, it is worth the watch.
I've known about this drama long ago but since it is in the historical genre, which I'm not a biggest fan of, I decided not to watch it.
But well, hold and behold, this drama is good, comedy and tragedy all in one.
And one of my favourite actress is the main lead in this drama.
Moon Geun Young is her name.
I will give her acting a big two thumbs up!!!!
Her role in this drama was a girl who disguises herself as a male.
Definitely convincing acting.
Totally a very good actor.
Alrighty then, gonna continue the drama.
Chaozzz people.

2010-05-31T07:12:00.002+08:00

So many things happen that it bothers me to put it into words.
What can I do?
What should I do?
How can I make it better?
I suppose the answer is nil.
All I can do is just move on and hope it gets better.
And pray to god for my handful of sins.
Seek forgiveness.
And wish it all away.

2010-05-20T22:41:00.002+08:00

Ughhh.......this flu is killing me..........
And yeah, the pic above was when I was still having my attachment and I had a very bad flu.
I had two days MC but the 'flu' still didn't give off any signs that its going to be gone anytime soon.
And so.....I had to wear a mask.
My bosses are two very clean-freak people, you know.
The husband even went around spraying the "i have no idea wat type of hygiene" spray.
Hello, I'm already wearing a mask, duh.
I'm putting up the pic since my sister said that my blog barely has any photos, which is true, i guess?? Hahaha....
Seriously, where do I find the time to take pics of myself?

Oh, oh, I finally ordered my first item from a blogshop.
The blogshop is called Orangebear, by theincognitagirl.
This blogshop is designed to cater to plus-size females.
So happy to know that I could find a place where I can buy those modern clothes that will fit me.
And the price of the items are quite reasonable.
Really, if you want to find them in singapore, the cost will definitely empty out my pockets and purse.
Thus, the first item I ordered is a legging.
Wanted to try wearing one since long ago, man.
But unfortunately, the ones that I saw were all too small for me.
Hmm, let's see if the size I chose really fit me well.
If it does, then I shall order more from this blogshop.
Yeeah!!!

2010-05-04T22:01:00.003+08:00

The weather has been tremendously hot these past few days.
Even when I'm just sitting doing nothing, in a few seconds, I will be perspiring as if I had run a marathon or something.
Not that i'll run a marathon, mind you.
Me, running? Never in a million years.
Somehow, I've been having this unsettled feeling.
It's been bothering me alot.
I'm not sure its safe if i were to convey all of my inner thoughts and doubts here.
There are too many eyes out there.
And I just can't risk it.
Often I feel that I am still searching for my identity, my self, my being.
It may be I have not found my real passion in life.
I need to find something that makes me feel worthwhile.
Something that makes me feel important and needed.
Cuz right now I feel like I am a lesser being.
I have no talents that I know of that I'm really good at.
I feel really lacking.
I know, I know. I'm not optimistic.
I want to search for my real abilities, and improve of what I already am.
If that makes sense.
This is all that I'm going to reveal of what's in my head.
There are more where that came from.
But they are for me to know, and for you not to find out.

Whoa....assignments even on the first day of school.
Well, Im still glad that my internship's over.
Whooooo.....
Though I know I will still miss the people there.
Don't worry guys, no matter what, you will still be remembered, even in my heart.
I dun easily forget the people I get to know.
Especially those who I can call friends.
We may not have known each other for long, but there are still memories that we've shared together.

I miss Donna and Hwee Eng.
Guys!!!! WHY YOU HAVE TO GO!!! NOOOO!!!!!!!
I feel a little more lonely now.
Oh dear, what to do.
Well, there's only one way.
To just get on with it.
No point dwelling in this problem.
BUT I STILL MISS YOU GUYS!!!
We've known each other for 2 yrs now.
I wished I could graduate with you guys.
I really wish so.
AAAAHHHHHHH!!!!
Ok, take a deep breath.
Alright, I'm gonna do my assignment now.
Have to distract myself right now.
Well, I still want to wish you guys all the best.
Even though I doubt that you'll read this post.
Okay..............................
See ya around, pals.

2010-04-13T20:23:00.003+08:00

Damn you flu.
Really, my nose is literally an open tap water.
I was even trying to have a MC-free internship.
And......you have to come during the last week.
Aaarghh.....so frustrating.

But nevertheless, I'm glad that my internship is ending soon.
Its not that I totally hate it.
I really can't explain what i'm feeling right now.
And also...I saw my new timetable.
I have to say I am not looking forward to it at all.
YAAAHHHH!!!!! Need to bear with it for one more year.

Somehow I find myself very annoying and whiny.
Oh not to mention I find A LOT of people very annoying and irritating.
Is this a sign of PMS? Gosh, I hope not.

Erm erm....can I complain some more?
I just want to let this out.
I freaking hate those teachers man!!!
What do they think we are??
We are not God, we can't make everything so perfect.
Especially that super annoying young teacher.
You know what she said when she saw one of the signage had a scratch on it?
"No standard, man."
I feel like punching her mouth that was always hanging wide open, waiting for flies to go in and make a nest.
Yes, the school is bloody rich, I can see it.
But don't make it like every flaw is my mistake, dammit.
I just design what you approve of, for goodness sake.
You know I design the mural for the school foyer.
I gave the teacher the design with only the columns that has the year indication.
And she approved it, you know.
But after we stick everything up and all, she said.
"Yasmin, why the beams don't have the years."
And I informed her that that was what she approved of.
And she continue to bla bla bla, saying that actually the beams are supposed to have the year.
She said it, as if blaming me that I was the one who made the mistake.
EErrrrggggghhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!
I could feel my face changing. Really boiling inside. I had to walk away. Or else I might have punched her right there and then.
Super troublesome client.
Luckily, I don't have to see them for long.
I'm getting out of the company soon enough.
Sayonara, you biatches and bastards.
Oopsss......hope you don't mind my crude language.
But I won't apologize for saying them.

There, I'm done.
Now I have to nurse my flu and hope it will go away soon.
Though I have a feeling it will only disappear after a week or so.
And this pill I'm taking for it is really making me drowsy.
Gonna stop for now.
Till then.................

2010-03-27T23:04:00.003+08:00

Again? What is wrong with blogger??
I can't change the font or the colour.
Damn annoying.
Or is it just my computer that's creating this problem?
Heck if I know.

Now its down to three weeks left of internship.
Quite fast, to be honest.
But I think I would like to start school as soon as possible, thank you very much.
Its not that I hate the place I'm in.
I like it just fine.
But they keep pressuring me to continue to work there even after I start school.
And said that I don't need to work at Cold Storage anymore.
Yes, the money is much better if I continue working with them.
But quitting my cashier job?
I'll cry man.
I love that job.
And I'll miss the people I've been working with for almost a year.
They are like my second family.

And also right now, the work I've been bombarded with are........
TOO MUCH!!!
Designing work + admin work + accounting work.
Hello...........
I didn't even learn accounting in secondary school.
I tell you I was like on the spot training, you know.
Yeah, train by myself.
Learn the formulas, the methods they use, by myself.
Gosh, I'm having a headache just thinking about this.
AND!!!!!!!!! I have to pick up calls.
You know how I hate answering calls.
Or even have to call someone.
I DON'T LIKE TO TALK ON THE PHONE!!!!

Especially yesterday when this bloody stupid lady who called and asked for my boss.
I told her that he was not in and she asked me for his hp no.
I said I don't have his number and guess what she replied?
"Why? Why you don't have his number?"
She was saying this so rudely and so stupidly that I almost laugh into the phone.
I said to her, almost sarcastic, "Uh, because he didn't give me?"
And she also told me to passed the phone to a chinese-speaking person.
Well, at that moment, the only people in the office is me and another intern, a filipino girl.
I told her there was no one and she start scolding me, some in Chinese and broken English.
Somewhere in the middle I said, "HAH?!" and she stopped for a moment.
I told her to leave her contact details so that I could pass it to my boss and he will get back to her.
But she just slam down the phone.
OH MY GAWD!!!!!
I was sooooooo pissed off man that i also slammed down the phone.
That really made my day. Thanks a billion, lady!
Who are you to act that way???
You can't even speak proper English and you dare act so rude to me?
Hah.................I know I'm not wrong so..........get lost lady.

Sigh....
This internship sure gave me lots of experience.
Now, to endure three more weeks.
Hope there will be no more telephone calls from hell.

2010-03-05T15:09:00.003+08:00

Feeling really bored right now in the office.
If you wanna know, i'm having my internship right now.
The company I'm in is called Constann Design.
Managed by husband and wife.
And right now, there are no other full time designers except for both of them.
And the part-timer rarely comes.
Oh well.
I feel a bit disappointed, to tell the truth.
I wished a friend of mine had went to this same company. so that i'm not so bored and lonely like i am now.
There isn't anyone my age who i can converse.
Really feels empty right now.
And as there are no other available designer, I'm going to be bombarded with a lot of work.
Tomorrow is a Saturday.
I thought that I could relax tomorrow.
But heck no. I have to come back to work.
Feel like crying.
Sometimes I feel happy here, sometimes not.
And right now I sure as hell am not happy.
And its only been almost a week.
6 more weeks to go.
I want those weeks to faster faster move man.
Gosh, why am I so pessimistic?
Nevermind, I'll try to go through with the flow.
As day by day, see what events will occur.
Sigh..........

2010-01-23T19:21:00.002+08:00

Oh dear, I really need to go on a diet.

Since, I have no time to exercise at all.

I'm putting on weight like there's no tomorrow!!!

And I hate it, man.

Time to control my eating habits.

Hopefully I can.

NO!!!!!!

I CAN DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!

I HAVE TO!!!!

Think positive, Yasmin. Yes, always think positive.

And I need to go back to my sit-up regime.

It's been months since i did any.

Alright, all the best to me.

Yes, and all the best to me in completing my projects.

With only one week left till submission.

And there's tons and tons and tons left to be done.

It's ok.

I CAN finish it. I will try.

Ever since I entered this course, my life has been revolving with these projects, projects and more projects.

And........I realised that most of my blog post has always been me whining about my school work.

Heh. Am I a typical person or what?

Always whining when you can use the time you use to whine to get some work done.

Hah....that is so lol.

Oh yes......and I am so broke right now.

Broke as in my wallet's empty.

And it's one week till payday.

Oh well, I will just have to bear with it for one week then.

No point complaining.

Right, right.

I better stop right now, or this post is going to get longer and longer with all my ramblings.

Yeah, time for me to cabut from here.

Sayonara.

New blogskin!!

2010-01-17T22:16:00.004+08:00

Alright!! I finally changed my blogskin after so long.

Yeah, I just couldn't find the time.

Actually, I don't really have that much free time right now.

BUT!!!!!

I need some relax time, man.

C'mon. I mean, I can't always be into my project 24-7, rite?

I need fresh air.

Really need some.

Now that I've just recovered from this sickness.

Or, almost, that is.

I really can't understand what's wrong with me.

Or why I'll get sick easily.

Have you heard about the church attacks in Malaysia recently?

What's up with that, seriously?

Bombing and all?

Hello, I'm a Muslim right here, but I find that there's no point in violence.

Really, there's no point at all.

Yes, you'll get the attention.

But will the problem get solved?

I think there will be more chaos, that is.

Even if it get solved, people will be looking at you differently, you know.

Let's solve the problem in a civilised way, shall we?

Oh well, I can't really say more than this.

Some might even say I'm bullshitting or whatever.

Heh, well, this is what I think.

I believe violence is in no way a key to solving a problem.

Yep, that's it.

I've said what I've wanted to say.

Let's see what will happen.

2010-01-12T20:57:00.002+08:00

Busy, busy, busy.
With all the projects, the assignments, the presentation.........
Oh, don't forget work.
Sigh........................................

Oh, I wanted to comment on some movies that I 'managed' to watch at home.
First is Coraline.
Very interesting movie. A little creepy in the animation but overall the movie is pretty fun.
I also watched Phobia, the part one as well as Phobia 2.
I have to say Phobia 2 rocks, man! Hahaha.
It was way better than Phobia. The stories are more interesting.
The short stories in Phobia was kinda lame and quite boring.
I especially liked the last story in Phobia 2.
So very comedic. I like. Hahahahaha........
You should go and watch.
I recommend Phobia 2.

Alrite, that's it then.
Have tons of work to be done.
See ya.

2009-12-20T23:54:00.003+08:00

These past few days, I've noticed customers are getting more annoying and irritating.
And like to order around.
Especially earlier today, there's this female customer with her son.
I did her transaction, then she asks me to put the things in the bag, on top of the other things.
That's what I did, but obviously it won't fit.
Then she scold me, saying, "When you do things you have to use your brain."
"Want me to be the cashier?" Is what she retort.
I was like, "What the hell?"
I let her pack it herself.
I tried to help her close the zip since she had some difficulties, but she pushed my hand away.
Really pushed my hand away, saying, "No need to help me."
Feel like punching her in the face.
But I don't want to lose the job.
Who does she think she is, man?
I'm just the cashier, not a packer, dammit.
I've put the things orderly in a plastic bag is already good enough.
Want to put inside ur bag?
Do the bloody thing yourself!!!!
And she acts as if I'm brainless.
Hah!! Don't look down on people, alright!!
Even her son who is already a teenager is scared of her.
Blah, I'm not.
And I was absolutely happy when she get lost from the place.
Goodbye, and I hope I won't see you again, bitch.

2009-12-13T23:52:00.003+08:00

What a day!!
Want to know what happen today?
I'll tell you.
There was a theft incident at work today.
And you won't believe who was the culprit.
The security guy.
I was totally gobsmacked.
I mean, a security guy who was supposed to watch out for shoplifters and criminals and so forth is the one who steals?
An irony, isn't it?
But really, I already disliked him since the first time I saw him.
He was caught by Ion's chief security.
Guess what he stole?
A bottle of wine that costs more than $200 and a box of chocolates that cost $15.
And he's malay, but I don't think he's a Muslim, or maybe he was.
Oh man, of all people, a security guy???
So dishonest!!!!!!

Alright, I suppose this is the only new event that happen.
Oh yeah, and my mum was hospitalised again.
I think I should watch out for her more.
Yeah, I should.
Think her husband will?
I can't rely on him at all, considering that I have no liking for him.
Though I conceal my emotions well when I'm in front of them.
Don't want to hurt my mum more than she already am.
Oh God, please look after my mum.
I hope and pray for her to get well soon.

2009-11-21T18:07:00.002+08:00

Came back from work a couple of hours ago.
Ate a plate of homemade fried chicken.
Now in my room racking my brains trying to do my seminar ppt.
Oh man, there's just too many things that needs to be done.
Compilation of my portfolio.
Send cv to companies before 11 dec.
Finish my 25mmX25mm concept box.
Do my intech journal.
Do my tod journal.
Will I be able to finish all of this?
Heh heh...........
Oh well, I need to try.
No point whining and complaining.

And I need some relaxation time too.
Aside from school and work.
Before I feel like as if I'm turning old way too fast.
What can I do?
The only thing I can think of is relax one corner and immersed myself with a novel, which is not a bad idea.
Alright! Time to head into a battlefield full of schoolwork.
Ciao!!

2009-11-14T13:59:00.002+08:00

I'm feeling annoyed and puzzled.
Wondering if they realised their actions.
Have some common sense, please.
And act more civilised, alright?
No need to let small matters turn into a huge one.
Learn to live and let live.
Compromise, if need to.
And one more thing. Hypocrites are the worst.

2009-11-02T20:36:00.002+08:00

The first project if the term is over and done with.
After all the measuring of the shops, taking photos, and 'stalking' people, the whole thing is finally over.
Yea, we were basically stalking people and taking photos.
Well, the project requires us to observe the shoppers and how they tend to move about the space, so we had no choice but to do that.
Wahahahaha........
I was in charge of taking the pics by the way.
Very fun, taking photos of ppl when they were oblivious.
If you want to know, nobody complained, ok.
I was discreet, so to speak.
Thus, I have the qualities of a private investigator, no?
Hehehehehe.......just kidding.
But being a private investigator is kinda interesting.
Get to know the various and ridiculous problems ppl have.

Alright.
I'm ending my post right here.
But before I sign off,
I want to wish Keyan "HAPPY 19th BIRTHDAY!!!"
May you be blessed with all the good will.
Enjoy your day!! What's left of it.

2009-10-28T00:13:00.003+08:00

Stinging, teary, red eyes,

Head full of matters its threatening to explode.

Wishing that time will slow down.

But knew that will never happen.

I gotta do what I've gotta do.

Life continues and it always will.

I need to compromise.

Prioritize what's important.

Block out any unnecessary thoughts.

Put away any negativity.

Have faith.

And hope everything will eventually turn out right.

2009-10-18T14:39:00.003+08:00

I'm gonna blog for friday and sat.
During these two days, there was a Grand Opening for Ion Orchard and thus all stores will be operating from 10 am till 11 pm.
And which means I had to work till the closing time.
Friday was still okay for me, but yesterday.....Oh man, there were a lot of customers.
A lot of customers with a lot of things.
Oh yes, on Fri, apparently, Carrie Underwood came to perform, right at the entrance of Ion Orchard.
But because I had to work till very late, I missed everything.
Oh well, what can I do.
Anyway, I'm resting today, which is.......my last day of sch holiday.
Oh shucks...............

Ok, below are some pics I took at work, some time ago.

Actually I don't know her real position. Somehow higher than a supervisor. And her name's Lynn.
Hello Lynn!!!!

And the person in the above pic is my very funny checkout supervisor, Mabel.
She looks a bit like those market auntie rite?
Wahahaha.......i'm joking, joking only.
I put the witch hat on her head, since she was the one who started to chase us around, forcing us to wear the hat.

My workplace. Hehehe. Not like the normal checkout areas, eh?

Oh, and check this out. They put a dreadful looking wizard as a halloween decoration. But it fits perfectly into place there. Haha.

Alright. I guess this is it. I'm gonna rest and get prepared for 2moro.

2009-10-12T14:25:00.009+08:00

Time to camwhore!!
Well, I was feeling pretty bored and so I decided to play with my hp camera, which was pretty sucky, by the way.
And thus the following pictures are the ones I took during my moment of boredness.

My happy serene face. :)

My cheeky face. :P
My 'Oh' face.

My frustrated face.

My disgusted face. Haha

My sceptical look.

My so called surprised look.

My puzzled face.

My "OW!!' look.

And the other pics below is my 'perasan' poses.

Hehehehehe.........

Ok, that's it, folks.

I'm gonna continue reading my manga rite now.

So till we meet again!!

2009-10-10T01:52:00.002+08:00

More than a week have passed since I blogged.
Seriously, there's nothing interesting to blog about.

Man, my eyelids are getting droopier by the seconds.
But I dun feel like gg to bed rite now.
Maybe I'll go after I finish blogging this.

Oh oh, somehow, I've become a love consultant.
Which is soooo lol.
Hahahahaha.............
Hopefully the advice I gave is useful.
Like as if I'm an expert in that area.
Which I am SO not.

And I find that the time today is quite slow.
While at work, it's so tiring to see that the time has only pass by for 5 mins when you've felt that the time passed was more towards half an hour.
Urg.....so bored when there's no customer.
And so tiring when there's too many customer.
Haha, see, the complains of a typical person.

Alright alright, my eyes is telling me to shut down the computer and GETTA SLEEP!
And so I shall do just that.
So, I'm signing off here, guys.
Goodnight, or rather, good morning.

2009-09-27T16:38:00.000+08:00

Hmmmm......guess what happened last night.
I was playing my lappie when a loud 'BOOM!' shocked me.
Really really really shocked me. It was around midnight.
My room window shook like hell I tell you.
At first I thought it was just a thunder but on a second thought, it sounded mysteriously more like an explosion.
We opened the window and looked outside.
Hmmm, nothing out of the ordinary.
But residents were starting to come out from the shell they call home, I think to investigate the source of that explosion.
We thought and asked to ourselves, was it a car explosion.
If so, there should be fire, rite?
But there were none, since no fire brigades arrived.
Haha, let me tell you, only at these times will ppl look like as if they are united.
When the police arrived, they were all crowding together.
And what are they doing?
Being a bystander, I suppose.
See the blue and red lights in the pic.
That's the police at the top of the multistorey carpark that's just across from my room.
So I get a first class view of what was happening.
My sister told me that she saw a grp of boys on the top floor of the carpark.
They might be the culprit, i should think so.
Cos I did saw a grp of boys running up and they kind of look suspicious.
Oh well, I hope this incident is the first and the last that will happen.

I visited my real mum's house earlier today.
I like visiting her, cos somehow we'll get pampered.
Fufufufufufu............
And luckily her husbands not home.
Don't like him.
I can say he's totally a 'not good' person.
OMG.....can't believe what I saw in the fridge.
Gosh.........I can't bear seeing my mum living in the same household as him.
I hope I'll be able to take care of her more.
I hope so.....

And here's some pics taken with my mum.

2009-09-24T22:50:00.002+08:00

HAPPY BIRTHDAY WATI!!!!
U r officially 13 years old.
May your future shines brightly before you.

Alright, let me tell you something.
Just now, while I was working, me and my colleagues suddenly realised that there was a huge crowd outside our store, crowding outside the seafood restaurant.
I asked around, and found out that the F1 racers were in there.
No wonder ppl are crowding.
That's not all.
In order to go to the carpark, they had to pass by our store.
And as they went up the escalator, ppl were running to take photos of them.
Total mania.
The girls were even screaming.
OMG.
I was like (-_-)........
Are they crazy or wat.
Uh, whatever, I'm not really interested in cars, what more F1.
And tomorrow is the 1st day, am I right.
Gosh, I bet there will be lots of ppl tomorrow.
Gotta get prepared.
See ya.

2009-09-22T23:50:00.002+08:00

SELAMAT HARI RAYA!!!
Well, I should have wished that a few days ago, but oh well, late is better than nothing.

Anyway, had work today, but it's overrr.......
Business is quite good, considering that its a weekday.
Should be due to the fact that yesterday's a public holiday.
At least I'm not as bored standing at the counter, so that's good.

And and and and.....I ate too much the past few days.
Now I'm have stomach upsets.
Grrrr.....serves me right.
Feeling a little food phobic.
Only a little.

Here are some of the pics that are taken on the first day of Hari Raya.

I'm gg to post only a few that I like.

Whoohooo......

Hahahaha......love my family lots........

2009-09-17T13:55:00.002+08:00

Not feeling too good right now.
Can feel a nagging headache at the back of my head.
Nauseous too.
Hope it doesn't get worse.
I'm not keen in falling ill.

2009-09-10T21:18:00.000+08:00

Awww....blogger is still not fixed....man!
Need maintenance!!! Hello, can you hear me?
Okayyy.....that's lame. Booohoooo......

I worked the morning shift instead of the evening shift today.
From 9.30 to 5.30pm.
And I got hungry during the afternoon.
Damn you stomach!
But I resist breaking my fast before dusk.
So, give me some points for that, ya?
Hurhurhurhur, working in ion is really fascinating.
Sometimes.
Today I saw another actress, please don't ask me her name.
But I'm a hundred percent sure that she's an actress.
She looks much much smaller and skinnier than in television.
My friend told me that Stephanie Sun visited the store yesterday and guess what?
She's not as tall as she seem on tv.
She's practically what you'll call 'short'.
Buahahaha.......
It's totally true what they say, "the camera will make you look pounds heavier".
Gosh, I wonder is I were to be on tv, I will look much more humongous than I am right now.
Ok, that's an exaggeration, but you get my drift.
Hooohoooo, that's totally amusing.

Yeah, I started watching the new drama that Yoon Eun Hye's starring in.
And as usual, she's an amazing actress.
The drama's called Take Care of The Young Lady, where she played as a super rich and super spoilt brat.
And she's getting skinnier, as usual.
As expected from actresses and models who always 'take care of their appearance'.
Sigh, I just hope she won't get any skinnier than she is now.
You must eat, ok, Miss Yoon Eun Hye?
Bwaha, wth, like as if she'll read this post.

Ok ok, I shall stop my nonsense and random rambling right now.
I'm getting some rest.

2009-09-07T13:44:00.000+08:00

What's wrong with the blogger posting?
Maybe its just my laptop that's sucky, I dunno.
Now I can't change the font and the colour.
Aiyah, whateverla, as long as I can still post, then it should be alright.

Right...the month of Ramadan.....
I have no mood for celebration.
There's not even a tinge of the feeling.
Not at all.
No idea why. Don't ask me.
Feel like as if I'm emoing, which I'm not.

Yea...going to work later.
So many issues there, involving the people.
So amusing, I can totally laugh.
Dunno what's wrong with them.
Oh well, not my business.
Unless you involve me, I shall keep my mouth shut.

What else is there to write?
Hmmm.....uhhhh.......
My mind is blank right now.
Maybe I'll write more next time.
When there's something more interesting.
So yeah, see ya.

2009-08-29T17:06:00.000+08:00

Wahooo.......its the holidays again!
I managed to survive the term!
So, let me enjoy these holidays.
Well, apart from having to work.
Its time for me to save some money.
If I can, that is.

Let me reminisce a little about yesterday.
As usual, I worked from 6 till closing, which is at 10.
But around 7 plus or 8, guess who came for a little visit?
Mr Lee Hsien Long. Yes, it's really him.
No wonder I kept feeling that 'why are there suddenly so many people'.
Only when my friend told me about him entering the store did I realise what was really going on.
And I tell you, it's like as if all those people are so 'jakun'.
Hahaha, don't ask me to translate that, cos I dunno the english word for that.
People are crowding at the sides watching him.
They really are all standing at the sides, you know.
Hahahaha..........
And by the way, he was definitely tall, that's for sure.
He was with his wife, and of course, other people I dunno and don't care who.
Only his wife bought some pluot dapples which she paid at my counter.
And I think she's a really nice lady.
Really friendly and polite.
I'm happy to serve her. Hahaha.
Not like some other customers who are so not a big shot but act like one.
That, I don't like. Hmph!

Alright alright, this is all there is for me to write.
Well, actually there's more, but I had forgotten. Waha!
I just wanted to say that ever since the one week where I had many sleepless nights, as in really never sleep the whole day, I keep feeling sleepy although I know that I already had enough sleep the day before.
I can doze off in a matter of seconds. Even while standing, in the train.
Scary......scared I'll fall, man.
Hooohooo, ok.
I'll some more in my next post, whenever it will be.

2009-08-03T06:47:00.000+08:00

Time sure flies.
And its time for me to update, eh?

Many many many many things happen for sure.
But I will not write down all of them.
Too lazy to do so.
Bwahahahaha.

I've been working at 360 Marketplace at Ion Orchard for 2 weeks already.
I have to say I really don't like the counters.
The space is soooo cramp!
Walking around that space is hard, is one thing.
The other thing is that if the customers buy lots of items, there will be no space to put the items.
They are expecting that the customers will buy less item than in other cold storage stores.
Buhhhhh! Like real.
However, I like the space since I have friends to talk to beside me, unlike back in paragon.
So its kind of ok, i think.

I want to tell you something.
I got scolded by a customer on Saturday, just as it was time to close the store.
She said I key in something that she didn't buy.
I look at her, and then at her receipt.
I remembered clearly that the only thing I keyed in a code in her purchase is for the grapes, while the rest of the items I just scan.
But she keep insisting, scolding me like crazy, saying I'm wasting her time, and wondering how the hell I could key in something that she didn't buy.
My manager helped me so we gave back her money, apologizing to her repeatedly.
My manager actually didn't check her items properly.

Then, yesterday, when I went to work, my manager told me that she did indeed buy the item.
That customer called the store yesterday morning to apologize.
Woooooo.......see, I knew it.
But its good that she apologized.
It helps lift up my spirits a little.

Oh yeah, while working there for the past 2 weeks, I saw Michelle Chong, who came and paid her items at my counter, and also Andrea De'cruz with her husband Pierre Png. I have to tell you something.
There's the saying that says the camera makes you put on weight, and its true.
Those celebrities that I just mentioned look so skinny in real life.
Especially Michelle.
She is so thin. Not stick-like, but very thin.
And of course, she's pretty. Who doesn't know.
Hahaha.

Alrite, I guess I'll stop here for now.
I need to go and take a shower and get ready for school.
Until then......

2009-07-12T23:55:00.002+08:00

I feel a little sad, truthfully.

Since today was my last day working in Paragon.

I will start working in Ion Orchard next week.

Wahhhhhhhh..............

I'm gonna miss those people in Paragon.

A-soh, A-chng, Kak Fazlina, Fuzah, Kelly, Aimee, Arianne.

Ok, I won't cry.

I will visit them often, since we are of walking distance to each other.

Haiiii.........alrighty then.

I shall go to bed, and think nothing of this more.

Goodnight everyone.

2009-07-05T23:18:00.005+08:00

Alright, here are some of the pics taken when I went to the Botanic Gardens on 30th of June

I was searching for the swans but in the end they were all sleeping.
Hahahaha. But they are gorgeous, aren't they?
Their white feathers are really pure white.

A little cave we passed by, that is, me and Donna.
Splendid view.

Took a photo in front of it.

How it looks like on the inside.
Damp and cool.
Feels really nice, especially since it was a blazing hot day that day.

Guess what's this?

A cactus!

This photo was taken in front of the 'Passing of Knowledge' statue.

The shrub that I was assigned to. Named Heliconia Rostrata.
And I saw humongous grasshoppers. Give me the shivers, man.

And this pic is my personal pic.

I took it by accident, can you believe it?

The squirrel was actually moving, and you know that squirrels move very fast.

And thus, I can say I'm very proud of myself.

Bwahahahaha.......haha, just joking.

I just like this pic very much.

This is near the symphony stage .

I totally love the view.

I just hate that I was almost baked while standing there looking at the view.

Red dragonfly! So pretty.

My first time seeing one.

And finally we are back in school, in the comfort of the library's air-con.

And Hwee Eng is dreaming away.........

Hahahaha.........

And finally both of us.

Looking at a kid's book.

So lol.

Right, so this is it for now.

Very tired to do any thing more......

2009-06-30T23:32:00.001+08:00

New project.

We are really using botanical subjects this semester.

Or maybe for the whole year?

Who knows?

Anyway in this project, we are required to find our designated plant, shrub, climber, whatever, and take pictures of it, investigate and study it.

So me and my friends, or should I say the whole 5 classes went to Botanic Garden this morning.

My clique separated once we reached the place, since we were all doing different types of plants.

I'm with Donna, by the way.

And the plant I was given was called Heliconia Rostrata.

I'll upload all the photos at a later post cuz rite now there's something wrong with the uploading of the pics.

Yes, so as I was saying, we separated, but before that we went to the library there to search for the location of our plants.

Mine was easy to locate, since the area was called Heliconia Walk.

Buahahahaha.......

Went to search for Donna's plant first, but god, we went round and round and still we couldn't find the plant.

And by that time we were both sweating like hell.

Since the sun was having a 'no mercy' on us.

Even though the heat was merciless, we still can take photos.

Not on the plants, but of ourselves.

Wahahahahahahahaha.........fun fun.

Oh man, I'll surely get more tanned.

Had to go back to sch by 2pm to take attendance.

When we entered our studio, we were totally shock to find that there were nobody except for one of our classmate.

Haha.

Attendance taken, we bought food and ate in the studio, though it was actually forbidden for ppl to eat inside the studio.

Who cares, ya?

We love and we want the aircon in the studio. :p

And we did some research in the library after that, before gg home.

Right, I'm gg to rest now. My feet are all sore and aching.

Stay tune for the pictures that i'll upload soon.

Or u can go and see from my facebook.

Alright, goodnite ppl.

2009-06-28T15:08:00.003+08:00

Errrrgh.......stomach pain.......

And I keep visiting the toilet.

You know what I mean.

Have to skip work today....booohoooo....

And 2moro is the start of the 2nd term of school.

Hope all will go through smoothly.

And yeah, I got my Ion Orchard Marketplace uniform yesterday.

See the picture below?

I was given 3 sets of pants, shirts and vest.
And I had to carry them in a big cold storage plastic bag.
Luckily it wasn't that heavy.

And as I've guessed it.

The uniform is black in colour.

The pants and the vest are both black.

Only the blouse is white.

I'll show you how the vest looks like.

So imagine me wearing the white blouse and the black pants, with this vest on.
I tell you, I look like a bartender.
Seriously.
And without the vest on, I'll look like one of the security guards.
Oh well, at least the colour is alright.
Black is ok, I guess.
I want to see my new workplace, I'm excited for that.
So ION Orchard, hurry up and get fully constructed!!

2009-06-25T21:47:00.011+08:00

Well, I still like Super Junior after all.
I'm not a fanatic fangirl though.
I'm the group's fan but not to the extent that I'll go,
"AHHHHHHH! SUPER JUNIOR! PLEASE MARRY ME!!"
That would be so lol.
Not to mention that I will never do that even in a million years.
I like the group because I see that each and every one of the members is unique and has their own individual personality that will differentiate them from the rest.
I can't deny that they are cute. Hohohoho.
And they are totally hilarious. That's the main thing for me.
You agree right, Esther?
Hahahahahaha..........
And why the heck am I writing about this?
Simple.
I'm bored, bored, bored, bored, bored.
Just needed to do something.
And since I did watch a video with them in it, I decided to use them as a topic for my blog post.
Sigh. Oh well.
And I wish they would do a concert in Singapore.
That will be cool.
Yeah, what am I gonna do next.
No idea.
Read manga.
Watch anime.
Watch korean drama.
Listen to music.
Facebook.
Play game.
Anything new?

2009-06-23T13:36:00.002+08:00

Tch! What a jerk!

I'm absolutely furious with this person.

If one knows that one is soooo good at this particular something, then that person should try to teach another, not go and order the person around, what more insult the person.

Like as if you know everything.

And watch your mouth, dammit.

So annoying.

Don't think too high of yourself, it won't get you far.

Huh, see if you'll change.

If at all.

2009-06-18T18:04:00.002+08:00

This time I have two videos that I wish to share with you guys.

1st video is my featured blog song, Flavor of Life by Utada Hikaru.

Its in ballad version, which I like better than the original.

Love the song, and Hikki (the singer's nickname), really sang the song with all her heart and soul.

And she wrote the song, by the way.

Well, she wrote most of her songs, actually.

So I think she's amazing.

The 2nd video is also by her, entitled Keep Trying.

You may find that the video is a bit, how'd you say, lame or weird.

But I find that it's very encouraging.

And you'll understand the meaning of the song as well.

This song is the 2nd song on this blog, by the way.

Haha. Really love her songs.

Well, enjoy!!

2009-06-15T17:48:00.004+08:00

Hate this terrible cough!

Had it since i got the flu.

And definitely not H1N1, for your information.

Quickly disappear, you!!

PS: The cough, not you.

2009-06-12T19:53:00.000+08:00

What's the purpose for this, dammit!

Sorry for the crude language.

Needed this to be off my chest asap.

What's the use of preparing all those weapons?

To prepare for war? Hello? What century is this?

Aren't we supposedly supposed to be more civilised and more intelligent?

What's the use of having a war?

More wreckage, more ruins, more pain, more misery, MORE BLOODSHED?

My heart feels so unsettled by this.

Gosh, I'm feeling the urge to go there and put some sense into their heads.

Only that I know I can't.

What the hell.

I don't really know the reason why they are planning this.

But if they are really planning a war, they are a bunch of idiotic, brainless, no-sense, inconsiderate, stupid people.

I have more where that came from, I just don't want to write everything or else this blog post will continue on and on and on and on and on........

Even if they want to make a point across to the other side, still, in the end they will definitely suffer as well.

Can't negotiation be done? Really............

I'm getting white hairs just thinking about this matter.

It involves all of us, once this matter really come true.

And I'm not sure what will happen then.

2009-06-09T21:00:00.002+08:00

Oh......having a fever is so tiring and troublesome.
I think I took a nap that last more than six hours. And of course, the sleep wasn't a smooth one.
I kept waking up due to some weird dream or something.
Yeah, I get that everytime I have a fever, since I was small.
And I missed work today. I was supposed to work from 6 - 10.30.
But well, today's a no go.

Anyway now I'm having my three weeks holiday, which will be gone in no time.
My critique session was a nightmare to be honest, and I shall not give out further details.
My only hope is that I'll pass the modules. Yeah, that's it.

What else to write.............
Oh, I like Super Junior's new song in their third album, 'it's you'.
Quite nice......and I also like the MV.
Haha, and Esther just fell in love with them.
Thanks to me. Bwahahahaha!!!
I'm so proud of myself. HAHAHA!!

Ok ok. I think I'll have more rest cos I have work tomorrow and I'm not hoping to miss it again.
So goodnite everyone.
Wish me a speedy recovery, yeah?

2009-05-29T21:59:00.002+08:00

Submission is over and I'm feeling really relieved at the moment.
Though still feeling the fatigue after 3 hours of sleep.
Haha, what you'd expect? I didn't sleep the whole night, completing the project.
Without any coffee or any sweets I still managed to last the day.
I tell you during my gems class, I kept dozing off.
It's not like I had my head on the table or anything.
I was sitting straight with my eyes focused on the screen, but the next thing I knew I almost fell off my chair. That is sooo lol.
I really couldn't concentrate at all, as much as I tried to.
Sigh.........
I just hope that the teacher did not notice that I've been pretending to pay attention in class while the fact is that I've been trying to stay awake the whole time.
Hahaha!!

2moro there's work for me.
What's in store for me?
Who knows, I have to find out for myself, don't I?
Hopefully my work will be a smooth process.
And I MUST remind myself to always double check my transactions.
Though I rarely have any shortchanges.
Hohohoh, don't say, later really happen then I'll die.
Alright. I still sleepy.
So I'll stop my boring ramblings right here.
Adios, monsiuers, mademoiselles.
Lol, a mixture of two languages. Haha.
Ok, be right back, on my next post!!

2009-05-24T15:58:00.002+08:00

I've been super busy lately. And it's going to get busier too.
For one, I've already started working, and another, there's a project that I need to complete.
Hmmm......wish me luck, yeah?
Haha, ok, let me talk about my work a little.

Basically its the same as when I was working at Vivo City. As a cashier.
Though the register system is totally new.
And touch screen, which I totally do not like, and the buttons are like all over the place.
For the first two days, I was attached to different cashiers, to help them and get to know the system.
As well as the plu codes. I'm telling you, i still can't remember the codes.
Very very very difficult. Haha.
Well, I think I'll get used to it after some time.

I like walking along Orchard at night.
I think the lights and the atmosphere are kind of amazing.
Oh yeah, talking about that reminds me that I was approached so many times while I was walking towards Paragon.
Kind of annoying, actually. Haha.
The first time was about nutrition survey. Bla bla, yeah, I know.
My body isn't that healthy. Gosh, I did that survey two years ago too! Lol!
And more people from the same company approached me as well.
But sorry to burst your bubbles, guys, or ladies, I should say.
I'm not gonna do the survey anymore, alright! So beat it!

And yeah, on Fri, I was walking briskly along, since I'm almost late and got a shock when someone tapped on the shoulder from behind.
I turned around and I thought it was one of my friends, but instead it was a stranger.
As usual, the first thing they ask me was, what's my age, am I a Singaporean, that kind of questions.
And then she told me that she was from a talent agency, and whether I could give her my name and hp no.
I was like, huh? Talent agency? She gave me a card, and I read that the company is ususally for models for bridals, advertisements and tv commercials.
Why the heck did she approached me? I almost blurted out laughing, I swear.
I'm definitely not a model type. Lol.

Ok, that's enough excitement. I have one more thing in my mind.
American Idol.
I was soooo sure that Adam Lambert was gonna make it.
But man! I am so wrong.
Kris Allen got it. Well, Kris's voice is pretty good considering that his image is of that a good and innocent type.
But I still think that Adam Lambert is more powerful vocally and he has an overpowering stage presence.
That's a little disappointing, isn't it?
I heard from my friend at work that Sheryl Fox said that it was because Kris was more religious.
Was it because Adam is gay? Haha, I dunno whether it's true.
That's what my sister said. And also that he works as a drag queen.
Gosh, I dunno what to say if it's true. Gay, nevermind. But a drag queen?
Hmmmmmm...............

Alright, i guessed I've typed enough for now.
I have to finish up my project or I'll be rushing for time for sure.
So, I'll take my leave now.........

2009-05-09T19:42:00.002+08:00

Finally I found a part-time job!!
I'm so happy!!
I'm back to the previous company I worked for.
Cold Storage!!
Though now I'm working at Orchard.
My training will be at Paragon Marketplace.
And I'll be transfered to Ion Orchard in July.
I'm feeling quite excited.
I will try my best in this job.
Well, I'll just hope I can cope with my school in tow.
Hahaha.......

Yeah, yesterday, I went to Tampines Giant to sign my offer letter.
I went straight after school.
Had to stand in the MRT the whole journey, from Dover to Tampines, which was 21 stations in total!
Luckily I could lean on the seat partition, or else, I may had been on the ground, asleep. Haha!!!!
And when I reached Tampines, I went around looking for the shuttle bus.
Like, uh....how am I supposed to know where's the shuttle bus when I couldn't even find the sign indicating it?
In the end I had to walk and walk and walk until I find the 27 bus and took it to my destination.
I almost got lost while searching for the 27 bus stop. LOL.
But because my intuition is good, I managed to reach the Tampines Giant safely and on time. Wahahahaha!!!
Cheh, I'm praising myself. Haha. Ok, dun mind me.

Anyway, I signed my offer letter, and bore with the person's lecture.
Ah huh, uh huh, yeah, ok.
Finished, left the building and took the shuttle back to the MRT.
There were no signs to indicate that the place was where the shuttle bus was.
I just assumed that the place was since I saw a sign that states 'Tampines' and there were a number of people queuing up.
Lucky I was right.
And by the way, I'm starting my training on 19 May. :)

Alright, all excitement aside.
I still have assignments that need to be completed.
Till my next updates........
SAYONARA!!!!

2009-05-05T22:13:00.004+08:00

My father went to youtube and listened to some songs, and When You Believed was one of the songs he listened.

I was in my room, but once the song started, I jumped and rushed into the other room where my father was.

This song was one of my favourite and inspirational song, to me. And as I watched the video, the hairs on my arms stood still, really. Goosebumps......

This song, and the way Mariah Carey and Whitney Housten sang it was really.......beautiful. And magical.

Their combination as a duet is really amazing, to my opinion. And Mariah Carey look better in those days, and her voice is gorgeous too. Not that I think her voice right now is bad or anything, but there's a difference in style, don't you think?

Oh well, maybe its just my thoughts. Its ok if you don't agree with my opinions. Haha.

Alright, back to the thing I was doing.......

2009-05-03T21:12:00.005+08:00

Second week of school......over.

Bloody damn fast, if you ask me.

And before I knew it, critique session will arrive and term one will be over as well.

Gosh, and thinking about the Critique.....eerrrghhhh.....

Not gonna think about it!!

Many many many amusing and annoying things happened at school.

Please note on the many 'many's'.

I'm really not going to tell you guys, cuz I guess it could be a discrimination.

And I'm afraid of getting sued, so BOOYA!

Haha, dunno what's that exclaimation is.

But well, this discrimination has nothing to do with race, language or religion.

It's got to do with someone who thinks he/she is a bigshot.

HA! Like real! HAHAHAHA!

Well, I'll let that person indulge in his/her contentment. For now.

But if you piss me off or order me around, I'll give you hell.

I'll follow my own way, the fair and reasonable way.

I'll only listen to you if its fair or reasonable.

If not, just dream on, you...person who acts like a bigshot but is definitely sooooo NOT!

Uwahhh.....~take a few deep breaths~. Alright, I'm cool right now.

I'm so cool right now that I'm gonna continue on my assignment.

Be right back next week!!

2009-04-25T13:10:00.002+08:00

The first week of school started of with a bang. Another project!
The project is called Techne, which means manual drawing.
Had to measure up our designated location and then draw the site, according to scale. With details included.
Not as easy as it sounds, I tell you. Feels like I'm studying to be an architect instead of an interior designer. Haha.

In comparison from when I was in year 1, this year there are more lecturers.
I cannot remember all their names.
Hmm...let me list some of the names that I know.
Ellen, the eurasian lady and also our year co-ordinator, Faris, my TOD lecturer, Manish, my class' tutor, KK (I dunno what to write about him :)), Ariel, the lady who's pregnant and Cindy, my Intech lecturer.
There are more of them but I can't remember their names. Oh well.

You do know that I took the French Language & Culture for my Gem module, rite?
Well, I had the class yesterday. And the teacher is a Frenchman. His name is Francois, but pronounced as Franswa.
He talks pretty fast with an accent, but I can understand him.
The class was quite ok, I guess, since we learned about the geography of France.
Hoooo.....I don't really like Geography, haha, but a little of it is ok.

Alrite, I have to continue completing the drawing for Monday's submission. And I'm thinking of redoing them.
So, I'm signing off rite here. Ciao!

2009-04-18T20:08:00.002+08:00

A day of holiday left. Well, actually weekends don't count as holidays, so I can say that my school holiday is officially over.
Year two, here I come!
Hohoho.....that's kinda lame. Haha.

I accompanied my youngest sister to her school to attend the Bring Joy and Merriment event where kind-hearted people try to fulfill the needy kids' wishlist, and my sister was one of them.
While I was there, I saw some of the kids that I taught while I did relief teaching there. Somehow, I felt a little happy to see them. No idea if they remembered me or not. Well, one of the girls sort of waved at me, dunno if she recognised me or not, since it had been more than 3 years.
Seeing them there, a lot of memories came rushing back at me.
Like how the kids were so happy and cheerful to see me.
How they were so noisy in class.
And like how a classmate of theirs accidentally did his business in class.
Fufufufu......those days were like.....wow, if you know what I mean.

While watching as the kids went upstage to collect their presents, my heart felt a little light as I saw them walking downstage, clutching the present tightly, with a big smile on their faces.
I wished to be able to put a smile on someone's face just like that. It has very great and humble feelings, to be able to do something like that.
After everything was over, we went to the school canteen for some refreshments, where I gobbled 4 - 5 dumplings. Hohohoho!

Alright, that's it for today, I guess. Am I dreading that school is coming soon? A little, I suppose. But more of excitement, I should say. Oh well. Let's see, shall we?

2009-04-15T15:52:00.003+08:00

Now that he's back and seeing that he's feeling so much better now has got my mind calmed down a little.
And this is definitely a good thing.

Right. Only a few more days till school reopen.

I am both looking forward and not looking forward to school. Hoho.

I'm looking forward as I'm feeling kinda excited to know what I'm going to be learning in year 2. I'm not looking forward cuz I'm not looking forward to more sleepless nights. Sigh......

I guess I miss my poly frens. It's been more than one month since I last saw them.

But I miss my secondary school frens the most, man. It's been, what? 3, 4 years? That's a heck of a long time, ya know. I wanna catch up with them some time.

Oh well.....

2009-04-12T18:43:00.001+08:00

We'll pray and wish you'll be able to come home soon.

We need you. We love you very much.

2009-04-06T20:28:00.002+08:00

I want an oven!!! I'm craving the feeling of batter between my hands!
I so so so so want to have an oven right now!
For one, baking can take this feeling of bore away from me.
And another thing, I can practice my baking.
You know my real ambition is to open up a bakery sort of cafe, right?
Where people can come and relax, drinking coffee or tea, or even fruit juice, and indulge in delicious and scrumptious treats.
A place where people can enjoy freely, where their hardship may be forgotten in that moment.
And a place where people can smile and be happy when they eat what I've made.
Whoo hoo, I so want to create that kind of place.
That's right!! I WANT AN OVEN RIGHT NOW!!

2009-04-03T17:20:00.002+08:00

Heck, I'm pissed off right now.

You think you know so much, but you definitely don't.

You think you are so mature? Reflect on your actions first.

Got it?

Woooh! Now that its off my chest, I'm feeling so much better. No thanks to you.

2009-03-31T19:33:00.003+08:00

WAHHHH!!! SUSHI!!!!!
I finally got to eat sushi after such a long time.....really craving for it.
Well, I didn't go and buy them, mind you, I'm too lazy to go out. Wahahaha...
Three of my sisters went to Vivo today, so I asked them to buy the sushi for me.
Hohohohohohohoh...............

Alright, left 3 more weeks of holiday.
Have not been doing anything though.
Want to find work, no transport money. When there's money, there's no job.
Booohooooooooooo!!!!!!!
I'm really rotting at home! Gosh!
Please do not be like me. Rotting at home really sucks!

The only thing I'm doing everyday is......
1) Wake up at ard 10-11 am
2) Laze around, watch tv first
3) Vacuum the living room, cook rice, wash dishes
4) Then take a shower
5) On laptop then go into the kitchen, find food.
6) Go back inside my room, eat while playing my laptop
7) Finish eating, wash my cutleries, stuck myself back inside my room, and continue to be engrossed with my laptop, leave room only to find food for dinner or visit the toilet.
8) And go to bed at around 12 midnight, not that I own a bed. Hooohahahaha.....

See how I'm living everyday! It is sooo boring!
Lalalalalalalalalalalalalala..................
