and so.. i removed my extension on one fine day, taking them off all on my own and resume short hair..


well, not really short.. just touched the shoulder, barely touching actually..

like my short hair now.. i intend to grow it and most probably wont be cutting short anytime soon..

in that case, why not enjoy the growing period? :) and thus, i removed them..


now i don't have to wait for 1 -2 hours for my hair to dry, neither do i need to try to make it look neat.. lol..

and.. i got a new laptop! :D with the help of jer of cos! he met me at Central to look at the laptop, waited till everything was settled before he left for his appointment..



i always find myself lucky to have so many great friends.. who knows IT.. lol..

well, its a mini laptop as my old laptop is too heavy for me to carry for everyday work.. my shoulder and back is hurting from all the weight..

okay.. one main reason is cos my mum wants my laptop.. you see.. my desktop died and she wants to watch her korean dramas etc..

so she suggested getting me a laptop while i leave my old laptop at home for her to use..

okay.. wasnt so much of suggesting, it was basically a nicer way of telling me to give up my old laptop and get a new one, which she is paying..

she bought my laptop at 600+ while i jus finished paying for my old laptop of 2k.. =.=

of cos she is more than willing to buy for me!

i wanted to get macbook but she refused, saying whats the point of getting another heavy laptop to replace my alr heavy laptop?

make sense but i want macbook! :(

well.. i guess i gotta save up money to buy that if i really want it then..

lol.. and that's the best buy for this year!

next on the list: a bike! :D





PS: i love such balloons..lol..

愛得太遲

was browsing my email and saw this email from a friend who used to be very close.. the email title wrote:

the song they want us to listen and realise.

and in the email, there's a cantonese song, and lyrics:

Love Too Late - Leo Ku

愛得太遲
古巨基

我过去那死党早晚共对
各也扎职以后没法畅聚
而终於相约到但无言共对疏淡如水
曰夜做见爸爸刚好想呻
却霎眼看出他多了皱纹
而他的苍老感是从来未觉太内疚担心
最心痛是爱得太迟有些心意
不可等某个曰子
盲目地发奋忙忙忙其实自私
梦中也习惯有压力要我得知
最可怕是爱需要及时只差一秒
心声都已变历史
忙极亦放肆见我爱的见双至
要抱要吻怎黱也好
偏要推说要等一下次
我也觉我体质仿似下降
看了症得到是别要太忙
而影碟都扫光但从来未看因有事赶
曰夜做储的钱都应该够
到圣诞正好讲跟我白头
谁知她开了口未能挨下去己恨我很久
错失太易爱得太迟我怎想到
她忍不到那曰子
盲目地发奋忙忙忙从来未知幸福会掠过
再也没法说钟意爱一个字
也需要及时只差一秒
心声都己变历史为忙未放肆
见我爱见的双至要抱要吻要怎黱也好
不要相信一切有下次
相拥我所爱又花几多秒
这几秒能够做到又有多少
未算少足够遗憾忘掉
多少抱憾多少过路人
太懂估计却不懂爱锡自身
人人在发奋想起他朝都兴奋
但今晚未过你要过也很吸引
纵不信运你不过是人
你想很远爱於咫尺却在等
来曰别操心趁你有能力开心
世界有太多东西发生不要等到天俯瞰

i realised i always take pics but i never upload them.. lol.. so this post will be dedicated to my random pics!






went out with mum n sis one day.. cant rem what its for.. christmas? new year? cant rem.. and my sis got this really unique bag (to me).. and thus, i took pic of it.. its from national geographic! lol..

so we went for movie and before that, went to Heeren for dinner.. decided on Jack's Place..




waited for quite some time for the food to come.. in the end, we gobbled down all the food and rushed for movie.. what a waste.. =.=






these other pics were taken at Mr. Curry @ chinatown last week when i met joy for our yearly bestie chinatown shopping..

ok.. wasnt really shopping.. i needed to get bak gua while joy needed to get some peanuts..

talking about that.. this best friend of mine has a brain that doesnt work very well sometimes.. we went to chinatown district where all the new year stuff were sold..

passed by the first stall and she was saying she wanted to get this particular brand of peanuts which we got last year.. so i told her, it should be the first stall (we JUST passed that stall).. i pointed to it and this lady actually said, "No lah, not this one.. we go further to look for it.. i must get this brand.. "

and with this sentence of hers, we walked the district twice (at least) and got pushed and squeezed.. and no sign of that brand..

so after 1 hour plus, she gave up and say lets go back to the first stall and get that peanuts..

we went back and realised i was RIGHT, it was the brand she was looking for! arghhhhh.. wasted my time!

feeling guilty (plus she was late for more than an hour earlier on cos of work).. she treated me to late dinner.. we went to Mr Curry @ Central and ordered our food..

i had prawn cutlet curry rice while she had some omelette mushroom with chicken plus additional beef..




prawn cutlet curry with additional half boiled egg on top.. yum.. life is wonderful!


joy's omelette mushroom + chicken and additional egg and curry beef.. lol..


the food was ... awesome! i cant find any other words to describe.. its definitely worth the money.. the ambience was very relaxing, the service was good and the food.. delicious..

from there, we decided to make it our monthly routine.. lol.. the bestie mr curry night out.. lol..

so those are the random pics i had taken.. there's more but they're ugly.. lol..

anyway, as i was looking thru my folder for the pics, i saw my baby pics with my sis.. lol.. i think some of you have seen it before.. but just to share with the rest that didnt..

i have a twin sis.. and we really look alike when we were young.. so can u differentiate? =X







ok, gonna change and go chinatown with mum n sis! have fun! haha. and happy ox year! :D

when you are standing at the cross road, what will you do? do you stand there and ask people for the best route to go or do you jus close your eyes and point to a direction?

i realise alot of people usually ask but never really take in the suggestions.. in their hearts, they had pointed to a direction that they feel is the best decision or maybe the right decision (for them), but they are afraid to make the wrong move..

thus, they stood stagnant and get more suggestions from people who do not use the heart to make a decision but the mind (when they aren't making decisions for themselves of cos!)..

in the end, the mind prevails but the heart aches.. or the heart wins but the mind reminds (of the consequences)..




i have heard of this: "fast decisions are usually bad decisions and good decisions are usually the hardest to make."

how true is that?

we always choose the easiest way out.. we as humans, tend to follow our hearts and how it felt at that moment, pushing away all the reminders that our minds were trying to tell us, only to regret or worry after the done deed..




saw this quote somewhere:

"My basic principle is that you don't make decisions because they are easy; you don't make them because they are cheap; you don't make them because they're popular; you make them because they're right."

and this:

"It is not always what we know or analyzed before we make a decision that makes it a great decision. It is what we do after we make the decision to implement and execute it that makes it a good decision."



this is what we as humans always fail.. we tend to make one decision that is hard but right and then fail to keep it.. we fall back to square one, keeping to a decision that we had rejected and throwing away the one that we had intended to execute..

no wonder there's such a quote from Marcel Proust: "All our final decisions are made in a state of mind that is not going to last."

that's very true isn't it?





which to follow? which is right? which is the best decision? who's to judge..?





so...how many decisions have you made since the start of the year and have kept it? especially when it comes to the matters of heart...?

the best job on earth

Jer showed me this link. Anyone interested?

Australia offers 'best job in world' on paradise island


Mon Jan 12, 10:16 pm ET

AFP/File – An Australian state is offering internationally what it calls 'the best job in the world' -- earning …

SYDNEY (AFP) – An Australian state is offering internationally what it calls "the best job in the world" -- earning a top salary for lazing around a beautiful tropical island for six months.

The job pays 150,000 Australian dollars (105,000 US dollars) and includes free airfares from the winner's home country to Hamilton Island on the Great Barrier Reef, Queensland's state government announced on Tuesday.

In return, the "island caretaker" will be expected to stroll the white sands, snorkel the reef, take care of "a few minor tasks" -- and report to a global audience via weekly blogs, photo diaries and video updates.

The successful applicant, who will stay rent-free in a three-bedroom beach home complete with plunge pool and golf buggy, must be a good swimmer, excellent communicator and be able to speak and write English.

"They'll also have to talk to media from time to time about what they're doing so they can't be too shy and they'll have to love the sea, the sun, the outdoors," said acting state Premier Paul Lucas.

"The fact that they will be paid to explore the islands of the Great Barrier Reef, swim, snorkel and generally live the Queensland lifestyle makes this undoubtedly the best job in the world."

Lucas said the campaign was part of a drive to protect the state's 18 billion Australian dollar a year tourism industry during the tough economic climate caused by the global financial meltdown.

"Traditional tourism advertising just doesn't cut it sometimes and we are thinking outside the box by launching this campaign."

Queensland Tourism Minister Desley Boyle said some people might question whether it was risky to let an unknown person become an unofficial tourism spokesperson for the state.

"I think the biggest risk will be that the successful candidate won't want to go home at the end of the six months," she said.

"This is a legitimate job which is open to anyone and everyone."

Applications are open until February 22. Eleven shortlisted candidates will be flown to Hamilton Island in early May for the final selection process and the six month contract will commence on July 1.

Job-seekers can apply on Islandreefjob.com.

went up with eddy last week to "redeem" my jap food treat.. ok, not really.. the truth is..

I was at clementi area doing interepreting and after my interepreting, it was almost lunch time.. i think it was almost noon.. so i called eddy and he didn't picked up.. next, i sms-ed asking if he was at home.. he was.. sleeping.. and being me, i told him to wake up and meet me for lunch.. lol.. and being such a nice friend, he agreed.. haha..

and so, i met him at the bus stop at his place and went to Ginza Plaza (i hope i spelt correctly).. it was newly renovated and alot of shops weren't opened.. we went to Sushi Tei and bumped into my ex manager (i used to work at Sushi Tei as waitress)..


the last time i met her, i was only 18 i think.. and now.. i am 26.. darn.. time flies! she actually asked me to go back and help her! haha.. imagine, me being 26 years old, working part time at Sushi Tei again.. lol..

he was taking my pic while i was taking his.. haha..

well.. we had a great time reminiscing the old times.. =)

and chatting with eddy is fun.. he jus keeps talking! =X nah.. just joking.. he always have alot of interesting stories.. its good esp when my life is kinda boring at the moment (or rather, i am not letting out alot of my personal life now)..





our lunch.. haha..

so yea.. the 1 hour passed very fast and it was time to leave..

our FOC dessert.. lol..

was browing thru his blog and saw this:

anyway...my previous post said tt i browse thru post tt ive saved...many thing happened...many things changed...but the thing tt i remember is a "quarrel" with angela...well...we quarrel often...haha...ok maybe not often...i still remember going to bugis...made a small joke...n we didnt talk for weeks...n also abt her blog...which i didnt knw until a few months later(n she tot she gave me the link)...well...she's a fren i got to knw thru the cyberworld but quarrel the most too...from a unknown to a fren to close fren...the cyberspace is really full of surprises...u nv know who u will meet...but lucky for me...those i've met n kept contact with...are not those tt r on the "dark" side...

its really funny how things turn out.. who will be your good friends and who will be strangers.. more often than not, the people whom the 'audience' think will not click with you tend to be those who will be there for you always.. and those they think are good and nice? usually turn out to be the exact opposite..

of cos, its only a matter of time before the truth comes to light.. and people will finally know who is good and real and who isn't.. a few people had already experienced that.. those who were once friends with alot of people are now outcasted and those who were outcasted previously (for no reason or shallow reasons of cos) are now friends with alot of people and well loved..

this is especially prominent in the virtual world.. look around you and you will realise that is true.. =)

was talking to jer over the phone yesterday and got to this topic: change

i told him i intend to blog about it but i am not sure how to convey the message to the readers..

its easier to convey verbally than written ..

well, i am gonna try.. pardon me if you do not understand.. you can always ask me and i shall explain to you again.. =)


i have realised alot of rs failed due to the word: change..

nope, not cos people changed and feelings faded but rather, one party felt the other party has changed and could not accept it, thus, left him/her in search of another person to his/her liking..

this often left the other party dumbfounded, not knowing what had exactly happened or why the r/s even end in the first place..

it just ended cos the other party could not accept the whole package or the change that occurred..



what they failed to realise is, change is the only constant in life..

everyone is changing every second, every minute.. you are not who you are 2 years ago, or even 6 months ago..

but deep down, you are still who you are..

the soul, the spirit, the heart (not feelings) hasn't changed..

your taste may change, your thinking may change, your way of living may change but not your heart.. the heart that made who you were then and who you are now..



these people failed to look beyond the surface, failed to look deeper into the person they once loved, to see he/she is still who he/she is, he/she is still the one that gave his/her heart to you..

you are who you are, you don't change.. deep down, you are still the same old you 10 years back..

even if no one recognizes you, you are still who you are..

if one is willing to look deeper, look beyond the surface, he/she will see the real person..


i personally find it sad that a r/s can end over such reasons.. it proves that a r/s can be so shallow and fragile.. doesnt matter if the r/s had been a short one or had been for years.. its just as fragile and shallow..



these people are afraid of changes, they refuse to accept any changes.. if there's any changes, its better to end the rs.. just in case....................................................

of what? i do not know. it can be anything ranging from irritation and getting tired of the person to betrayal..

there's no such thing as 'i love you but i am leaving you' or 'i love you but i can no longer be with you' cos such phrases are irresponsible..

these are (failed) attempts to make the person NOT that heartless.. a nicer way to break things off.. without realising it only add salt to wound..

when this person could not accept change and left that person, who is the one that has really changed? this or that?

who is the one that never change.....?




PS: thanks for everyone who left a msg in my tagboard, it makes me smile to see people tagging me.. *smiles*

i saw a very funny post the other day.. talking about sluts and bitches..i find it funny cos the person who wrote that was so naive..got the wrong side of the story...totally..

and then, i realised one thing.. they always like to mention the ex-es as bitches/sluts and bastards/assholes..

you never hear a person say the partner's ex was a nice person but didnt work out..

at least i didnt..

and thus, when i saw that post, i find it ironic.. i mean, who's actually the bitch/slut and who isn't? who is being cheated into the wrong story here? =X

and..usually those who called the other party bitch/slut is usually cos she is jealous of the other party..

well.. of cos, thats not always true..

i knew a person who always lie.. always tell the wrong stories to the girls he met.. always that shallow.. and girls always get cheated into believing that he is the nice guy being wronged only to find out (maybe half a year later) that the picture painted was totally wrong..

that this guy is the bad guy being painted good..

i wonder how will this girl feels when she finally get to know the truth?

i pity her, really cos she is being lied right into the face.. sighs..............................................

happy 2009 folks! may this be a better year for all of you! :D

Hello! i hope everyone who is reading my blog now had a wonderful xmas! :D

as for me, i had a simple dinner with my family at Crystal Jade before meeting my friends @ BQ to drink..




but it wasnt a very smooth day for me.. cos my heels broke and i had to wear another pair of heels which was squashing my toes..

in the end, i managed to last until after dinner before i bought a pair of heels at Bishan (dinner was at Bishan)..

it was a very nice pair of heels with reasonable price though..

then i bought a silver/grey bag for myself as my bag was tearing apart.. holes everywhere (in the bag) and zip wasn't working..


an excuse for me to shop too! haven't been shopping for a LONG time..

then bought the same bag but black for joy as Christmas present cos i feel that it suits her (though her bags are mostly branded goods)..

wanted to buy something for mum but she didn't fancy anything from there..

oh! i bought 5 mini Christmas hats too! its really cute! :D


its handsewn by people with low income to help raise funds and its really nicely made!

its a hat with a hair clip in it.. thus, u can jus clip to your hair without fearing that it may mess up your hair!

you can find out more here: www.mylittlechristmashat.com

my christmas present - elmo! :D


anyway, went to Boat Quay to meet up with Joy (cos she reached there first).. and was tricked by her way of calculating prices.. =.=


in the end, liquors costed a bomb in our wallets that night.. =(


i guess thats part of the reason why everyone drank more.. so that the price was worth it! lol



its fun though..

we got to count down with a bunch of fun loving customers in the pub and the boss danced for us when they started playing RnB..


all in all, it was fun!

compared to the previous years! =X




as for christmas day..i was in bed until late afternoon before i went to meet my friends to play something that i have NEVER played before - lan game.

no joke. i did..

it was arranged on christmas eve and though i wasnt feeling very well, i went for it..

and i am glad i did.. haha..

we went to bugis trying to look for slots to play but it was full.. the person refused to reserve slots for us (we had 4 pple and only 1 knew how to play that particular game and me being a noob)..

the person made us wait for 20mins and 20 mins and 20 mins..

in the end, we got fed up and went for steamboat instead..

after steamboat, we went to cineleisure to play..



you see.. this was our plan on Christmas Day:

1. play lan
2. steamboat
3. boat quay
4. home

in the end, we only managed to accomplish one -- steamboat..

wasn't feeling very happy about it, thus, we went to cineleisure to try our luck..

they didnt want to go to selegie cos one of our friends find that area a bit too rowdy..

so we went to cineleisure and played the game - left 4 dead..




its a scary game, with 4 characters..

it pumps up your adrenaline as you try to survive through the zombies..


its really fun! jus one game and we are all addicted..

gonna meet up and play again this saturday.. to brush up our skills.. or rather MY skills.. lol..

we played till 10plus and went for a drink.. NON-ALCOHOLIC drink..

rushed for last train and thats the end of my Christmas this year.. =)



in 4 days' time, we will be celebrating the end of this year and welcoming the beginning of next year..

as i think back this year, alot of things changed.. for the better or worse? thats up to individual..

for me, i feel that all in all, it was for the better..

i believe everything happens for a reason.. when a door is closed, another will open in no time.. =)

alot of tears flowed this year, just as alot of laughter was heard..

i have grown up alot this year..

closed up alot, but opened up alot too..

learned to be more realistic..

learned to be more contented..

as for next year, i am keeping my hopes that it will be better, but i have learnt to always leave room for disappointment..

cos with high hopes, come with great disappointment..

this is just how life works..

how about yours?

have you reflected on your past year and plans for next year? =)

very true for mine. how about yours? =)

天空不断下着无声的雪
而我只有思念
勉强能温暖黑夜

拥抱离我已经千山万水
每个男人都有
说不出的心碎　Oh yeah

我还爱着一个人　但愿回到美好的从前
也许痛的感觉 证明了爱的深浅
不然为什么我还不撤退　Oh～

记得爱　所有幸福的片段
所以才一直忘记要离开
伸出手　继续勇敢付出我的爱
原地不动的等待
就算风把我的头发吹乱

记得爱 是我给过的答案
就不再　考虑应该不应该
一滴泪　落进无边无际的大海
至少我们都活得没有遗憾

got this from joze's blog, interesting. i think i belong to the last category these days. bad. =(

Do you drag yourself through the day feeling drained and exhausted?

Yes, we’re talking about lethargy, that heavy-lidded feeling that threatens to overpower you in the afternoon; that I-don’t-feel-like-working mood when you have a pile of reports to file. So what is it that’s making you want to curl up in bed? Lack of energy could stem from emotional stress, boredom, lack of sleep, and sometimes an upset hormonal cycle. It could also be due to a disruption in melatonin production.

What is melatonin, you ask? Melatonin is a hormone that helps travelers to sleep when they fly across different time zones. It is secreted by the pineal gland and is responsible for incucing sleep at night and governing the lowering of your core body temperature. The pineal gland slows its production of melatonin during daylight hours to keep your alert and increases its production when darkness falls. Melatonin starts to increase at about 9pm and peaks at around 2am. Any disruption to this cycle can affect sleep causing tiredness.

It is normal to feel a lack of energy, or be tired or drowsy sometimes. But if you’re tired even though you are sleeping more, exercising, eating better, and managing stress, you should consult a doctor. If you wake up in the morning rested but rapidly develop fatigue with activity, you may have a ongoing physical condition like an under-active thyroid. On the other hand, if you wake up with a low level of energy and have fatigue that lasts through the day, you may be depressed.

There are a few different types of energy and tiredness. There’s tense tiredness, tense energy, calm tiredness and calm energy. Tense energy is when you are revved up and doing lots of work but you’re not necessarily at your best. Calm tiredness is fatigue without stress, which can actually be pleasant at times such as before bedtime. The optimum is calm energy, or what people call “flow” or “being in the zone”. It is energy without tension, and is a sought-after state because you’re productive and completely focused.

The one to watch out for is tense tiredness. Your mood is low, you’re stressed, and you want something that will comfort you. Your mood is low, you’re stressed, and you want something that will comfort you. For many of us, that translates into chocolate, potato chi[s, and biscuits. It’s a vicious cycle. Your body has no oomph when you top it up with cheap fuel. In fact, you feel more tired and frustrated, and snack even more to feel better.

anyway, random pics.

a performance by MVS at the Children's Charity Association event last month. they were deaf (including the conductor).. but real music produced..

a giraffe balloon that i got from the event. told the volunteers to make one for me! i love giraffe! i wanted an Elmo, but they ran out of red balloons. =(

in the end, i got cookie monster, but gave it to my friend's son..

breadou from my best friend. she bought it for me as a gift, jus random. so sweet! this is a stress "ball" and can be used as mouse pad (though i feel its too thick to be used as that) and it actually has the smell of bread! nice! :D

was browsing for the pics in the folder and i saw this pic. the cutest dog i had ever seen. Lilo.. never got to see it again but well, always fresh in my memories. =)
