When I will start seeing the light at the end of the tunnel…

A day at work during exams… November 14, 2009

Filed under: Thoughts, Work — bluekoala35 @ 10:53

2 papers down.. Yeah… I have like 2 more papers before I officially finishes my exams. I really can’t wait for it to happen.

Yesterday, I went back to office. I saw my colleagues inside the room. All of us were like waiting for the training to start so we were chatting lahx. They were joking about me because after 4 days of leave, I came back to office with a t shirt with my name on it. They were saying I am afraid that people forget my name etc. They also ask me about my exams. Thank you everybody for the concerns.

Hmm… I went to attend training for CSR. I roughly have a better idea about it. Hopefully, it will help in my exams on Tuesday. After the training, both Cindy and I gather people around to go to Bak Kut Teh for lunch. So we went with Jocelyn, Grace and Jenny.

We went to Bras Basah straight after lunch. We went to Art Friend to get the board, some construction paper, double sided tape and masking tape. Then, we lobo abit. We walk to Bugis. Oh ya… It was raining so heavily that Cindy was like screaming while we cross the road. I seriously can faint. To prevent further screaming, I give her more shelter compared to myself. So it was like 1/2 of me were wet. Haha…

We went to Kinokuniya to get something for Grace. And I personally come across a magazine about travelling. I straight away bought it without hesitation. BUT… the magazine is not with me. It is with Cindy. Since I will not be free to read it first, I pass it to her to read it. I will get it back after my exams. After that, we went to J Co to have the ice chocolate, eugene will be so jealous. Haha…

We quickly head back to office to do up the photo collage for Sunday’s event. Seriously, it sucks. I do not like what I have done though I like the word, “activities” in it. Haha… Anyway..

When I go and pass Grace the magazine, I also went to sign my employment letter. So I am officially a full time staff of NVPC and I have a job. I know this sound weird but I am. Not only that, I also supercede the probation and got confirmation.

Before Jenny left, she came to our table and chat with us. She was discussing the different project that we have on hand. Which one should wait, which one should carry on etc. So as planned and knowing what we want, we managed to convince Jenny to hold the idea for the VK ideas competition. Cindy could not believe her ears and kept asking me did she hear wrongly. I myself can’t believe it too. It for real. It is a good thing because we will not stretch ourselves thin.

The day ended at around 7.30pm.

We cleared the work for tomorrow. Hopefully things will go on WELL.

Well, yesterday was like 13 Nov Friday.. I am so scared because it is a black friday. I abit supertitious. So I told my colleagues jokingly that I want to avoid like everything if not bad luck. Haha.. But it turns out everything went on well and in fact better than I thought.

 

1 Paper down November 11, 2009

Filed under: Study, Thoughts — bluekoala35 @ 00:08

I finished my Talent Supply and Selection exams today. I actually very tired, wanted to nap but somehow I am spending the afternoon looking for something online. Guess what. I finally found it and complete the purchase. This is something very precious to me, hope I can get it smoothly.

I have like 3 more papers to go. Mainly this thursday and next tuesday and thursday. More or less I am done. I am going to spend the whole day doing my revision. Well, I actually do have plans to go and get Koi Cafe tomorrow. Hope I can carry out my plan. If not, I guess I just have to wait for Friday to come and buy at Chinatown instead. Why they can’t open a branch at Tampines. Optimal Location man.

Without work these few days, I do feel the difference in me. I felt lighter and happier. I do not know why but I do not felt as pressurize as I am in the office. Well, maybe I am too concentrate on my papers already.

Wish me luck everybody though I know I have to work hard myself. I shall go to bed now and wake up early to study.

First thing first… How does this feel?432741200w200-stand-greenI have been always wanting to buy this. I am still waiting but people been telling me that I do not need that. I have an iTouch, Audio Technica earphone etc. I do not need this and most importantly, I do not play sports. So why do I need that?

But I want… Should I get it?

 

Koi Cafe November 9, 2009

I just included the link on top. I love their pure bubble milk tea with 50% sugar only. For a person with a sweet tooth like me, 50% is consider just nice for me. 100% i think I will die of diabetes.

Anyway, it is highly recommended by me, at least. I am studying for the whole day and managed to get my dad to drive me to Marine Parade to buy a cup of wonderful bubble milk tea to de-stress and also to satisfy my craving. I have like 2 more cups inside my fridge, 1 for my brother. Another for my tomorrow’s craving. Haha..

 

My Sister’s Keeper November 8, 2009

my-sisters-keeper

Sara and Brian Fritzgerald’s family start off like any normal family. Their family is rocked by sudden, heartbreaking news that forces them to make a difficult and unorthodox choice in order to save their baby girl’s life. They “created” Anna Fritzgerald to save their elder daughter, Katie Fritzgerald’s life.

I went to watch “My Sister’s Keeper”. I cry until my eyes were swollen the next day. I was pretty shocked when I wake up because it been awhile since I cry until like that. Till now, some of the images still play in my mind. I am touched and a little affected by it. Painful. It is painful to want to die and yet have to live because of someone else. Well, I guess it is just a fiction story and why take it so seriously?

Though the movie and the book has a big great differences and obviously the movie was cut short, I still prefer the book. I am going to read the book again after my exams. Well, that’s provided if I can still remember what I say now.

Today, I stayed at home loyally to study. I find myself rather distracted and I saw dispute today again. I told myself that I should go to Starbucks and study this morning, but I ended up studying in my room because there is no visitors today. My cousins did not come because my grandparents told them not to. Though without my cousins as distraction, I am slightly distracted myself.

2 days more will be my first main paper. Neither am I worried nor excited, I wonder why. I look at the pile of paper in front of me right now and wondering something in my mind. I do not know what I am thinking but I am definitely not really willing to study right now.

I am so going to get Koi Cafe’s bubble tea later. I wish I can “store” a cup for tomorrow but I know it is impossible. I might have to make the trip down myself tomorrow again. Crazy enough? Indeed I am.

This Is It, Michael Jackson November 4, 2009

This is It. Michael Jackson Rehearsal Movie.

I went to watch twice. Yes, I love him. I love his music, I love his heart.

I have a newfound respect for him. He is very particular about how he portray his music to others. He personally see to all the making of his concert. I really take my hat off.  The thing he said is really profound. No wonder he can write so many music with deep meaning within. He said, “It’s an adventure. A great adventure. I want to take them to places they’ve never been before. I want to show a time no one’s ever seen before.”

He is also very encouraging. He said “This is your time to shine, We will be there with you.” This specifically make me fall in love with him even more.

It is a waste that he left us…

 

Gravest Mistake I ever made in my life November 3, 2009

Filed under: Self — bluekoala35 @ 00:20

How stupid I can be. How can I even get this wrong? Oh my god. I have nothing to say. At this stage all I can say is I have enough of all that is happening. WTF wrong with me.

I am just not good at anything. Giving trouble to people around me, stupid myself. I can’t even get small things like this right. I am not a cut for excellent things. I am so disappointed with myself. What am I doing…

 

Audio Technica Earphone November 2, 2009

Filed under: Shopping — bluekoala35 @ 18:36

Audio Technica Limited Edition

An innovative wire rod headband that is thin but sturdy, light and stylish. It is easy to store has the earcup is able to swivel to flat.

I bought the Gold color one. Did I mention how much I love this earphone of mine? I just bought them and it is limited edition. I like the gold plated furnishing, showing the “retroness” of the earphone.

The only inconvenience I have is that I can’t use it during my office hours. Not very nice. So I have to switch to my simple earphones.

 

Wonderful evening in a long time November 1, 2009

Filed under: Self — bluekoala35 @ 02:16

I went out with my aunt today to town.

We head to Regent Hotel to collect my race pack for the Run For Hope 2009. Then we head to Suntec Epic Centre to purchase some items for our IT stuffs. I bought a Audio Techica headphones which I am using now. Enjoying it. The sound is not bad.

I went to eat Thai food for dinner. I can’t ask for more. Making me happier. The food is not bad. After that, I went to Candy Empire to get my Hanuta and Trolli Gummi Bear. I love it even more. We went to shop abit more as my aunt want to buy a pair of sport shoes for her new hobby, running. We head to East Coast to eat Supper. I eat some cockles, with some beer and sashimi which I miss out yesterday.

I am abit tipsy now. It been a while since I want to drink. Somehow I am glad that I am not drinking when I am feeling down. Today, I am drinking because I enjoy myself today. Which turn out that now I am not in extreme bad mood. If I am to drink when I am having bad mood, i think it is a bad choice.

I am not sure if it is a good or bad thing but this time round, a simple evening making me a happy person. I am thinking I must be really unhappy these few days that even a small shopping trip and slightly good food can make me happy. I do not have any stresses from work nor exams because I have studied during the noon and I am officially off for weekend work as Cindy is taking over me during this period of time because I am having exams.

This short relax shopping/outing cum trip will further charge me to study better and longer hours tomorrow.
