你到底想怎样？

喜欢，就请说出口。。
不喜欢，就请别对我这么好。。
 
明知道我只是开玩笑，怎么你还那么认真的对待。。
你的好意和举动，把我弄得很乱了。。
 

Partner or Maid??

Joke of the day: We look like the owners of the house.

 

In actual fact, these 3 incl him are my "bosses".. keke..

The BBT group

This is how much we love our bubble tea.. even the angmo got hooked.. even had it during his housewarming party... hahaha....
 
 

色字头上一把刀

Men.. They get distracted the moment they lay their eyes on a sexy pretty young object... And it proved mi right ytd...

Wake up, boys! Concentrate on the game... U have pissed mi off with ur actions... Really felt like digging out my partner's eyes.. Ogle for all u want during break but i expect ful concentration at game..

S for Siemens or Smurfs?

It's been a month since the new restructuring.. Thank god we were not split up, though we had new members from the other team onboard.. So we have our own secret code "The Smurfs" while the new ones are Gargamel and friends... Hee!!

Oh, we do have a Smurfette too and he is none other than our friendly James.. Lolx! If u know, the original Smurfette was created by Gargamel to infiltrate into the Smurf Village but unsuccessful as Smurfette eventually became part of the Smurfs family too..

Need further explanation?? James is our new sales manager who reports to no other than Gargamel. As James sits next to mi which is also equivalent in the smurfs village, he naturallys becomes part of us... under the Smurfies educational programmes.. farrr away from Gargamel's territory...

I heard there's a seating re-arrangement going on and I hope we won't be affected much and still remain as it is... Smurfies does not want to expand their little cozy village~~~

他的出现让我发现花痴的女人有多可怕。。

I heard of him the day I joined Siemens, when Kumar showed mi our team members chart.. He was away in Norway office to assist in a project then.. Then as the days passes, I heard of his name again from the BA ladies, as well as the project engineers... "Oh.. Bernardo.. Handsome chap.." "U lucky gal, got such a guy in your team.." Photos? None, the best part was Sharon said she managed to find a pic of him but when I saw it, I was like "Is this all u ladies have of him?? His backview??? Is he 赌神 or what??" Description of him from the ladies: Tall, Handsome, Cute... So this fella became a mysterious yet popular colleague whom I'm looking forward to meet.. So handsome meh?? Describe till like he's such a charmer... Occassionally, I will have the ladies asking mi when he's going to be back in office and etc.. No clue... So expectations of him are high..

And we finally met in end Sep, the day I walked into office.. The usual empty table across mine was occupied so I guessed it should be him... When we said Hello, the first thought hit mi.. "Are my expectations to high, or are the ladies too simple with their requirements?" No, he's not ugly but not that handsome la.. But definitely better looking than all the ang mohs in our department...

So, Mr B and I hit it off well amazingly... No hidden agenda or anything... We were just plain honest with each other, at least I was to him... We joked, we kicked each other... Bla bla bla... I know this wont last long as he'll soon have his own social circle of friends as time goes by... Anyway he's not my cup of tea, so who cares.. 不在乎天长地久，只在乎曾经拥有ma.. but I know there's someone out there eyeing that cup.... I know 'cos a woman's intuition is usually quite accurate... And this someone is no other than our big sis L... For the whole 3 months since I started work, I don't always see her dropping by our section.. Even when she did, she would usually be behind chatting with Sarah and never come to my table.. But when Bern returned, I see her almost everyday and she would be finding excuses to chat with mi while her eyes are prowling on him... He probably felt it, I don't know.. but I did.. it's so damn farking obvious till times I will tell her I'm really very busy at work and won't be able to entertain her.. if she wants to talk to him, please just go over to his side and stop loitering around my table as it's very distracting...

The theory of action and reaction

I guess Lipton is a really good catch as people whom I'm close with have been trying to 'educate' mi in settling down.. Be initiative! Be xiao nu ren a bit!

Well, I do have find him a mr nice guy but then sometimes I will think whether if he's the one or does he like me too?

Teacher Wong says can observe from Lipton's action that he does have some interest la.. Why? Cos when we were at the Wongz habitat, I had accidentally hit my head against the sofa board and natural reaction made mi said "ouch" though it's not painful.. But next moment, I felt his hand rubbing the same spot of my head where I got hit.. Inside mi, I was quite taken aback as I never expect him to do that but I pretended nothing happened....

So comes the Action & Reaction teaching over dinner last Sun and Teacher said my reactions are too independent for Lipton to proceed with another action..

Absence does not make the heart fonder

It's been almost 2 years since he left for Chicago, 1 year since I last saw him... He is a good friend of mine; someone whom I used to adore and look up to for he is smart and talented...

Our whatsapp msgs initially were almost daily, keeping each other updated about our "activities" though there's a 13-14hr time difference.. As he started school, things got busier for him.. Work at STTP then got frustrating for mi too that sometimes I just don't feel like replying to his msgs of how's work and life? What can I say other than work sucks big time and getting replies from him that says, "See.. I told you before, dun join ST and u never listen to mi.. Now regret and complain.." I don't need that additional reminder which will not help mi pull thru the day at work..

There are times when I just felt like letting go and tell him to f off, but those are the times when I think I had serious PMS... ahahah... which I'm glad I'm able to hold back till now.. However, I find that I don't have that patience with him anymore when he said something which I find it quite senseless though he thinks otherwise.. I'll just choose to ignore after reading it and not reply then if I don't want to.. I felt like I was just purely entertaining him for the sake of keeping our friendship alive..

We probably drifted apart emotionally over time unknowningly, like how a kid would never be close to the parent he/she seldom sees..

My 38 lunch kakis...

To know how amazingly 38 my lunch kakis are, it's easy.. Just tell one and the others will know.. If I'm lucky enough, it'll probably stay within the trio.. If i'm not, probably their whole team will know..

It started when I mentioned to W that I'm going to catch a movie with a guy friend.. It was just a simple answer to a question from her during lunch about where I'm going after work.. And within the next hour after we returned, the others knew about it.. It was a trap for mi to walk into when I had to pop over to their side to get their boss' signature.. They eyed mi like a lion eyeing its prey and started questioning what movie am I going for and where, how's the guy like, his job, his looks, his characters and most imptly is he single and eligible.. blah blah blah... =S Survey questions, which I am barely interested to answer.. Luckily that day was a busy one, with mi rushing to meet a dateline so most questions went unanswered as I walked away..

The day after was even worse, they wanted details as what we did, what time was the movie, did he send mi home after, did i enjoy his company.. O.M.G! I felt like a superstar under the persuasive pursuing of the paparazzi!! but luckily i know how to handle these info-hungry 38s and fed them very superficial answers to close the case.. Them knowing my character, I don't want to say means they wont be able to dig any further. Period. So I'm glad they stopped eventually..

If anyone is interested to know, all I'm gonna say is yes i do enjoy his company. =)

Feeling emo

Arrghh.. I'm just feeling emo and I'm sure it's not due to PMS...

Recently, I've been hearing talks abt reorg in our dept and the plan is to having the proposal team where I am to merge with the project execution team which is as good as breaking up the Snow White & 7 Dwarves family come 1st October...

I hope it's all just talks only... We shall see when the day comes, and I hope it will never happen..

I don't want to be adopted, I don't want the mini family to split up...

History repeated itself again..

Was it mi or what? Something lousy always have to happen on my birthday as much as I tried to avoid it...

As much as I appreciate the efforts and fun, but still it left a mark again... 我真的怕了。。

No matter how free I am, I'm not going to be available for them on 9th Sept anymore.

祝我生日快乐。。

应该是老了，所以对生日没什么好期待的。。

日子还是一样的过。。 不上班，在家也是闲着。。

但收到朋友们满满的祝福时， 感觉很窝心。。 很感动。。

所以我还是得对自己说声“生日快乐，小朋友!”

Sammy went swimming...

My sammy boy took a dive into my bowl of laksa on Saturday... =( Guessed it must have been too spicy for him which cause the coma..

Sending it to the service centre was the next thing on my mind... Cheat a free repair by acting blur... Keke...

Reaching that Samsung flagship store at Vivo today, I thought baby has some hope of survival only to be informed that the service centre is at PS!! Hello??? Such a big floorspace and yet no service centre... Sighhhzz...

Off I went to meet the boys who happened to be heading there as well for lunch...

Maybe I think too much le... But in between I've picked up distorted signals....

And thus, 我又迷路了。。。

Bit bit of recollection and memory

Was Youtube'in for some songs when I came across 2 songs..  年ew or not, i'm not sure but at least they are new to mi.. hee!

Well both songs reminded mi of 2 persons who somehow had a little bit of influence in my life.. Just wanna share with whoever has been reading my posts.. Enjoy~

Something meaningful

My couz tagged mi in this post recently, having read it I realised that this does not voice out just the writer's feelings (whoever he or she is) but mine as well.. at times... So I decided to re-post this short article which I find it very meaningful..

Happy reading!!  ♥ Gwen

引导语： 一直以来，很想弄清楚我们一直追求的是什么，而当我们真正看清的时候，不过是徒留失望罢了。

1、生活里，有很多转瞬即逝，像在车站的告别，刚刚还相互拥抱，转眼已各自天涯。很多时候，你不懂，我也不懂，就这样，说着说着就变了，听着听着就倦了，看着看着就厌了，跟着跟着就慢了，走着走着就散了，爱着爱着就淡了，想着想着就算了。

2、其时，我很累了，我习惯假装坚强，习惯了一个人面对所有，我不知道自己到底想怎么样。有时候我可以很开心的和每个人说话，可以很放肆的，可是却没有人知道，那不过是伪装，很刻意的伪装；我可以让自己很快乐很快乐，可是却找不到快乐的源头，只是傻笑。

3、有时候，莫名的心情不好，不想和任何人说话，只想一个人静静的发呆。有时候，夜深人静，突然觉得不是睡不着，而是固执地不想睡。有时候，听到一首歌， 就会突然想起一个人。有时候，别人突然对你说，我觉得你变了，然后自己开始百感交集。——丢了的自己，只能慢慢捡回来。

4、没有人有耐心听你讲完自己的故事，因为每个人都有自己的话要说；没有人喜欢听你抱怨生活，因为每个人都有自己的苦痛；世人多半寂寞，这世界愿意倾听， 习惯沉默的人，难得几个。——我再也不想对别人提起自己的过往，那些挣扎在梦魇中的寂寞，荒芜，还是交给时间，慢慢淡漠。

5、假如爱情可以解释，誓言可以修改。假如，你我的相遇，可以重新安排。那么，生活就会比较容易。假如有一天，我终于能将你忘记。然而，这不是随便传说的故事。也不是明天才要上演的戏剧。我无法找出原稿，然后，将你一笔抹去。

6、有人告诉我，鱼的记忆只有7秒，7秒之后它就不记得过去的事情，一切又都变成新的。所以，在那小小鱼缸里的鱼儿，永远不会感到无聊。我宁愿是条鱼，7 秒一过就什么都忘记，曾经遇到的人，曾经做过的事，都可以烟消云散。可我不是鱼，无法忘记我爱的人，无法忘记牵挂的苦，无法忘记相思的痛。

7、一个人总要走陌生的路，看陌生的风景，听陌生的歌。最后你会发现，原本费尽心机想要忘记的事情真的就那么忘记了。

8、所谓练习微笑，不是机械地挪动你的面部表情，而是努力地改变你的心态，调节你的心情。学会平静地接受现实，学会对自己说声顺其自然，学会坦然地面对厄运，学会积极地看待人生，学会凡事都往好处想。这样，阳光就会流进心里来，驱走恐惧，驱走黑暗，驱走所有。


9、心理学家推荐的能让你开心的事：每天拍几张照片；看快乐的电影；在周末的清晨做白日梦；给朋友寄卡片；在水边散步；偶尔吃一顿大餐；每星期坚持做一次锻炼；一边开车，一边大声歌唱；一边喝咖啡，一边读小说；一边打电话，一边信手涂鸦；一边洗澡，一边唱歌。

10、你见，或者不见我，我就在那里，不悲不喜；你念，或者不念我，情就在那里，不来不去；你爱，或者不爱我，爱就在那里，不增不减；你跟，或者不跟我，我的手就在你的手里，不舍不弃。——来我的怀里，或者让我住进你的心里，默然相爱，寂静欢喜。

11、曾经在某一个瞬间，我们以为自己长大了，有一天，我们终于发现，长大的含义除了欲望还有勇气和坚强，以及某种必须的牺牲。——在生活的面前我们还都是孩子，其实我们从未长大还不懂得爱和被爱。因为爱过，所以慈悲；因为懂得，所以宽容。

12、一生至少该有一次，为了某个人而忘了自己，不求有结果，不求同行，不求曾经拥有，甚至不求你爱我，只求在我最美的年华里，遇到你。

13、有些伤口，时间久了就会慢慢长好；有些委屈，受过了想通了也就释然了；有些伤痛，忍过了疼久了也成习惯了……然而却在很多孤独的瞬间，又重新涌上心头。——其实，有些藏在心底的话 ，并不是故意要去隐瞒，只是，并不是所有的疼痛，都可以呐喊。

14、最佳的报复不是仇恨，而是打心底发出的冷淡，干嘛花力气去恨一个不相干的人。

15、遇到一件事，如果你 ------ 喜欢它，那么享受它；不喜欢，那么避开它；避不开，那么改变它；改不了，那么接受它；接受不下，那么处理它；难以处理，那么就放下它。------ 其实，人最难的是“放下”。放下了，就释然了。

16、可以一个人唱歌，一个人喝咖啡，一个人涂鸦，一个人旅行，一个人逛大街，一个人在雨中漫步，一个人听音乐，一个人自言自语，一个人发呆，一个人跳舞，一个人看电视，一个人翻杂志...... 只有爱，是自己一个人做不到的。

 17、人一简单就快乐，一世故就变老。

18、感情再深，恩义再浓的朋友，天涯远隔，情义，终也慢慢疏淡。------ 不是说彼此的心变了，也不是说不再当对方是朋友，只是，远在天涯，喜怒哀乐不能共享。------ 原来，我们已是遥远得只剩下问候，问候还是好的，至少我们不曾把彼此忘记。

19、世界上最凄绝的距离是两个人本来距离很远，互不相识，忽然有一天，他们相识，相爱，距离变得很近。然后有一天，不再相爱了，本来很近的两个人，变得很远，甚至比以前更远。

20、如果你看到面前的阴影，别怕，那是因为你的背后有阳光。

编后语： 这么美。那么伤。

It's a surprise..

This came as a very big surprise when Kumar came up to mi and handed over that sealed letter. It certainly brighten up my day even further though I'm already geared up for the long weekend ahead. I've never felt more appreciated than ever in my 7 years of working life... Thank you Kumar, thank you Siemens for giving mi the opportunity and believing that I can do it...

Mi, my job & my ♥ly team

Time flies, and I'm already into my 3rd month with Siemens doing pre-proposal qualification and preparation. Though my primary role is actually to create internal proposal-related documents for every project that the team is planning to bid for, I've also been taking up full proposal projects which are simpler as I still do not have that full technical experience yet... If you ever wonder if I dreaded that 'sideline', the answer is No and I am very much in love in what I'm doing right now..

The job responsibilities are exactly what I've been looking for since I left RELL but couldn't find it when I joined STTP.. And I found it right here in Siemens.. I hope this will be the last job till I retire or found a filthy rich husband to be a tai-tai. =p

Now, description of the team which I'm thankful for giving mi the opportunity to join them. There are a total of 8 in the team doing proposal for Oil & Gas Offshore projects, led by Kumar. Roger said it sounds like Snow White & the 7 Dwarves and so I'm inspired to cartoonise my lovely team..

♥   Kumar no doubt will be, Snow White
From the land of curry and spices comes Kumar who never fails to make us laugh with his jokes and comments.. As a head of the team, I felt that he's more sincere and approachable whether it be at work or social, as compared to other dept leads whom I've observed are always busy at maintaining politics instead

♥   Chua as Doc
Leader of the seven dwarfs. Chua does outdoor sales, so will seldom see him in office. I still remember his first advice to mi when we first met was "Do only what you are supposed to do for our team.. Outside of that, check with Kumar first"

♥   Joanne as Scrappy
Joanne's table is always in a mess and disorganised (SCRAPZ!) but she's one lady full of fighting spirit and proven capability.

♥   Yi Qun as Wiseful
Hometown in Hebei, PRC and married to a local sgporean for more than a decade, Yi Qun is our walking encyclopedia for technical specifications.

♥   Sarah as Happy
Happy is the joyous dwarf and is usually portrayed laughing. Very meticulous hot mama who looks young for her age. No one other than Sarah fits the bill, need I say more?

♥   Kandeepan as Bashful
Hailed from Sri Lanka, as the name describes Kandeepan (I like to call him "Candy-pan") is the shyest of the dwarfs, and is often embarrassed by the presence of any attention directed at him.

♥   Siang Wee as Baldy
No, Siang Wee is not botak as what the word seems to describe but Baldy's character is Bashful. Giggles. Gets red in the face which is what it meant for this Malaysian young boy who's quite quiet and yet very observant towards his surrounding.

♥   Mi!! as Daffy: Google for the meaning if you don't know~~ =p

我的答案。。

零晨 1点钟， 我失眠了。。=(
应该是那杯茶惹的祸。。 都怪自己馋嘴，快变熊猫啦！

拿起手机上了面博又没什么新的看点，来来去去都一样。。 有点厌倦。。无聊。。

探Youtube 一下，让我无意中找到《醉后决定爱上你》的片段。。
我又看了一次，虽然不是从头开始。。 只想听听看看两位的声音而已。。呵呵呵！！感觉好变态哦。。

其中一段， 晓如对杰修说：“也许是你的好让我一时晕船了，不小心划过那条不该侵犯的安全线。”

这句话我有莫名的感触也似乎对Gbb前几天的问题有了答案。。

也许他的好也让我晕船了。。=）

To my blog fans... (",)

I used to keep this blog private; or rather known to a few close frenz only...
But recently eversince it's made public, my visitor counter had some indication of increased readership..
This had given mi some motivation to be more active in updating here with my personal thoughts and experiences..

However I'm a curious writer at the same time, forever curious..

Therefore whoever you are, wherever you are.. When you read this, appreciate if you will also sign off/drop a line puuleeaase...

Dun keep mi in suspense k?

When 小朋友 is not that 小朋友

Mom, sis and her colleague YY were at the annual Club 21 Bazaar sale yesterday.
 
Just as they were looking around, Mom asked sis if she found what 小朋友 wants..
 
And YY's next response was, "ohh.. 小朋友的东西在另外一边.. 很多咧..."
 
Both mum and sis were surprised to with YY's reply, how come she knows who is 小朋友.. when YY continued, "Kids section there got a lot of 小朋友 stuff, buy for who huh?"
 
Only then mom and sis realised YY doesn't know they are talking about mi, and had thought they were talking about kids' (general term in Chinese)
 
What an embarrassment, now that there's one more person who knows about my nickname since young.. =S

A morning post

It'S 830am and I just got on my way to work.. In bus 518, nothing to do so decided to do a mobile post for the first time..

Actually my task now while travelling is to give Gbb's few days old qn a good think thru and reply her.. "If I want Premium to be my 杰修"

Already nearing TP liao, time for mi to alight and hop on to 23 to get to office..

I will post my answer later.. =)

A moment of thought..

Someone once asked mi why do I update my blog late in the night? My reply was bcos I can think better in silence, of things that I've seen or heard in the day and run an analysis on it...

Coming across some old wives talk again is sickening.. Especially when it's so old that I can't be bothered to listen for the second time but still it kinda prick my emotions a bit..

Ignorant remarks about mi not offering a lending hand, about mi taking sides, about mi getting closer to the others.. Is there anything wrong when I helped base on what I know and within limits; I said base on what I see; I make friends base on whom I can clique with.. So who the f do they think they are to make such remarks about mi when they only hear, but not see?

Furthermore what happened before has been a closure on my side for so long, why do these people have to dig it up and say it again?? Fix the problem they find and not keep blaming others..

Talk is cheap, but seeing is believing.. I hope one day when these people put themselves in my shoes, the stench will wake them up!

丁丁＆山猪妹的故事

I don't watch Taiwanese idol dramas usually as I find it's quite unrealistic, but recently I was hooked on 醉后决定爱上你 which aired its last episode on last Sunday.. The plot is rather good, realistic as it portrays another side of a romance that both end up together still..

The weekly screenings made mi look forward to every Monday, and thus no more blues 'cos it's 杰修's day.. =)



Towards the end of the last episode, there was a review of how 杰修 won 晓如's heart in 3 steps..

第一招：放狠话， 彻底消灭旧爱余威
第二招：灌米汤， 彻底把他融化
第三招：给承诺，越麻辣越好

And when I meet my own 杰修 (read, not 张孝全）, I shall execute the same process on him.. Muahahahhaha!!!

属于我的梦。。

一个熟悉的感觉，一个熟悉的面孔。。
但它不属于同一个人。。统统出现在我的梦境。。

醒来后的感觉很乱。。 怎么会这样？

给我那感觉的他，已经是往事。。
不想想太多，因为我们再也回不到过去了。。

出现在我梦境的他，可能潜意识想靠近。。
不想想太多，因为我还没确定那感觉。。

Gbb说我得认真去思考。。

I hope someone or something can give mi some enlightenment on this path... 因为我觉得我好像迷路了。。。

You Tweet, I Tweet, Everybody Tweet..

It has been a long long time since I last tweet.. So long that I've long forgotten my password, and user id.. No way of retrieving as the new password will be sent to that old hotmail acc which again, I screwed up on the password for login... keke.. What more can you expect from o'blur Gwen.. :@

So! I had a new account setup again few days back.. Hoping the vibe of tweet tweet will come back again... I'm looking forward.... (",)

辛苦了，幸福就会来了。。

It all started when I was still back in STTP, and I really hated the working environment and culture, not to mention the management as well.. I was already searching for "redemption" on my 3rd month in that company.. kekeke... Resumes sent almost every week, attending interviews once in a while but all no news..

Then Mr Germs came knocking quite frequently, till the extend I thought I had contracted some incurable diseases and am going to die soon... :P

So one day as I was chatting with a friend about my work woes, she told mi "Dun worry, gal.. 辛苦了，幸福就会来了, you'll find a new job soon.." I'm glad I took on that belief and held on..

This same phrase has now become my words of encouragement to others..

因为我的幸福真的来了。。 (",)

It's a small world

Life is so strange sometimes..

Things happen when you least expected it; and it happened to mi twice this week... Huatt ah!

First was finding out that Yeos' friend, Eric aka Panda, and I actually attended the same kindergarten; and also were neighbours living in opposite blocks within the same Prinsep Street estate almost 18 years ago.. And I'm amazed that he remembers, for I have minimal recollection of those.

Mixed feelings:- (1) Grateful that he kinda helped bring back some memories of that estate which had now become SMU hostel; (2) Thankful that he ain't that same boy whom I hit back then; (3) And unfortunately annoyed by his action of wanting to remain anonynomous after verifying my identity.. Why huh? Maybe he used to hold a torch for mi back then? hahahahahah.. Anyway we've all grown up and leading our own lives now, so it doesn't matter what happened then.. kekeke..

Secondly, I met him again and he is none other than my ex-partner whom I last saw in 2004.. And of all places, I had to see him outside Siemens lobby.. If only Sharon doesn't know him, she would not have spotted him and we would have walked past each other without mi noticing him. Seeing him again brought back the bad memories of finding out that he cheated on mi not once but twice, and once again on my birthday.. duhz! Of how he cried wolf when I initiated the breakup since I doubt I can trust him anymore.. Of how he threatened to hurt my family.. Of him asking for 分手费... It was an ugly breakup seriously.. Yucks! *shivers*

Seeing him again, I tried to be 大方 and waved "Hi" since what happened is all history now, but all he did was just a brief minister wave before walking off.. Really wonder what's wrong with him, if he hates mi that much then why try to add me over and over again in FB after each time of me deleting him off upon acceptance.. Move on, dude! Sighhzz...

男人，真的有时比女人更难以了解。。

30 days away from my big 3...

It's exactly 30 days before I begin my next decade journey.. Woohooo~! And I'm so looking forward to it...

And to commemorate this day, I had re-vamped my whole site with a fresh new look before I start a new posting of thoughts again.. Too bad about the header pic though as I dunno how to centralise it... siggghhhzzz~~

Goodbye 20s! You'll be missed badly~!

Post #85 - Hello Siemens!

Today marks the start of my 5th week in Siemens.. How time flies though I'm literally still on holiday mood as the Lotus Notes program which is gg to be my very best buddy at work has not yet been set up by HQ.. Seems like I'm also on summer holiday like the Germans too..

"enjoy while it lasts..", "are you crazy? can enjoy then enjoy first lah~" had been the most popular statement among my friends when they heard of how I spent my time in office and how boring it's getting to be...

nevertheless, I still look forward to the day I can start work officially soon..

Tahh dahh~ Xerox-Meow!

What does it take for someone to start behaving like another? Meaning when u see A, he/she reminds you of B...

This has been bothering mi for quite a few weeks when I was back in STTP.. It took quite a while for mi to be accustomed to it, and was forgotten soon after.. Then it all came back today, when she commented on my Facebook status about how I had reminded her that she hasn't blog for quite some time too..

It all started with her consistently seeking attention fr hitch-a-ride buddy MF. I thought it was normal for her to be jealous when mi being more fugly is getting more attention from the guys in office. So obvious was her action that other colleagues noticed too.

Then comes the first sign of imitation, having the same pretty pink Nike bottle as mi which was suppose to be rare in store as that's out of the season already.. Anyway, she manage to get her hands on one.

Joining the ranks soon after was her new orange jacket which was exactly the same shade as what I wore in office since day one.. And the biggest joke of all, she actually commented in front of a few 'broadcaster' colleagues that I was wearing the same colour as her.. Hello??? Look who's talking...

Subsequently, similarities were spotted.. be it in office or online.. FB status was updated in Italian, when I did mine in Dutch a couple of hours earlier.. Though my friend said hers was a direct english-italian google translation compared to mine in native Dutch but still it was a tingling uncomfy feeling..

Then I took another experiment by changing my MSN pm shout out remarking about updating my blog.. She changed hers shortly to same same as havent been writing on her blog for some time already..

Grrr...... WhY??

I have been asking myself.. Am I thinking too much, or is she really being a copycat??

I like her as a friend for keeps, but I don't think I'm so close to her to an extent that we can be seen as twins mentally..

Need some enlightenment as I believe the world doesn't need another mi...

Please don't ask me again...

[26.03.2011 - Sat early morning, Fine]

Me: "Hey mum, I won't be home for dinner tonight. Wedding dinner to attend" Mum: "Again? Who is it this time?"
Me: "A friend. Someone you haven't met before."
Dad: "So many friends you have huh? Been giving angbaos, when is it your turn?" Mum: "Ya lor.. No chance for us to host a wedding?"
Me: "Of cos, u will have.. Just that I dunno when.. Ask gor or jie la.."
Dad: "We are talking about you..."
Me: "Oh I'm running late.. Colleague waiting for me downstairs... Byeee~~~"

Off I go, back to pathetic office for a quick pick up of my laptop to work from home today.. The only consoling thing was the brunch with the gals plus KD and ReAnne.

Conclusion - The fear of attending wedding dinners as it will give my parents the chance to ask the same old question again...... =.=

Hello 2011...

It's already the 10th day of the new year and I'm still clueless about my supposed 2011 resolutions...

Looking back, I realised I had once again matured (not just physically but mentally as well) at every single execution of events that had happened in the past 365 days of 2010.... sounds old but yah, at least I knew what I did and had done with no regrets....

Saying Hello is not as easy as it seems to be but it always turned out to be a good move...

Started my 2nd job as an Engrg Coord @ STTP on 10th May, kinda regretted taking up this position but it did scored me a few kakis in the office... These are the people why I held back my resignation...

I officially became a godmum to Kayden Wong (love bundle of Marcus and Sharon) on 20th Sept.. Can't wait for the day when he can walk and talk, so it will be easier for me to bring him around.. Hee...

Saying Goodbye to someone or something precious is always the hardest thing but I've learnt to let go... That's why good memories are always for keeps..

Saying Marriage Vows are promises each partner in a couple makes to the other, for better or worse till death do them apart..... True love is about loving each other's imperfections perfectly...
