In slacking mode these days but also bz clearing up my rm & gg for my run... a bz dec I had with exams ending ending early dec, activities lined up & the wait of release of results.. 2007 gonna end soon & 2008 is here.. gosh, feeling so old now..

2007 marks the end of my uni life & embarking my journey in the working world soon.. it has its ups & downs & experiencing new stuffs as well..
(1) had the opportunity living in hall & its definitely a experience.. good side is making new friends & declaring independence but it has its bad side as I have to do my laundry before it piles up, fighting for dryers, cleaned my rm, cooked my own lunch but the best part is I can 'get home' fast & sleep.. Heez.. experience the worst insomnia in my whole life too..
(2) know my own grp of friends better & surviving our final yr together.. gonna really missed my sch life and the times we had, esp the ice-cream treats & indulging in my fav salmon don!!
(3) had bad experience when I went back to the old co for temp but luckily its only for 2 mths..
(4) went for GZ & HK trip, the experience of missing my flight (a experience nv forgotten & hopefully nv happen again)..
(5) daddy had a fall which is pretty bad, till now, the swell still there.. haiz..

the start of 2008 has good news for me too, will be preparing for my interviews & hopefully I'll get it or prob more upcoming good news for me?? even prior to starting work, I already had in mind one whole list of things I wanna get.. Heez.. but of course, have to work hard for 1 mth before getting my 1st pay.. hope 2008 will be a good yr ahead with posibilities & new hopes.. & waiting for my convocation in Jul/Aug which I'll fulfill mummy's hope & my dream..

Resolutions?? Hmmm.. & hopefully...
- daddy's operation a success (praying hard too)..
- mummy in pink health..
- get a good job with great colleagues..
- will choose between CFA, CPA or Master depending the job I land up at..
- go for a trip somewhere, no matter far or near..
- a LV bag (after watching nui ren wo zui da, wanted to get it so much..)
- all my friends are still right beside me...

meeting jas & von for lunch later in the afternoon.. hopefully I can get up early to help mummy do some house-cleaning.. will be gg out with san yi & kor kor later in the night, will be seeing SL & Kayle too...

Happy new yr to all friends and may the new year ahead be a smooth & fulfilling one.. one last day before 2008 approach!!

watched 'I am legend' by Will Smith y'day.. It was a pretty good show thou some scenes kinda unrealistic when I thought back but its a really nice show which I enjoyed very much.. The ending wasnt those typical nice & sweet ending but nonetheless the ending is meaningful with Will Smith sacrificing himself, the people becoming his living legend... wanted to catch this show so much & I did it.. so happy.. heez..

been slacking at home these few days, becoming a routine to look out for jobs everyday.. wondering if my grades are so bad to the extend that nobody wanna hire me?? all I wish for is a bank to accept me but seems like firms that contact me are acc/s.. kinda disappointed.. dad didnt want me to go into banks but said nothing when I'm very persistent about it.. prob I carry too much hope & now disappointed & depressed with the situation.. other friends seems to secure a job prior to graduation but I'm still waiting.. its also prob bcoz of the breeze of how I got into IRAS which led me feeling stagnant.. uni grad really doesnt promise anything these days plus now, seems like every firm have to go thru 2 rds of interviews.. maybe I should start my future studies research & planning earlier to see where I wanna head.. economists predict that next yr might be a downturn with recession being a periodic event & seems like 2008 might be it.. hopefully it wont happen so quickly..

I finally get to s/u my reproductive health, happy to get rid of that sucky grade I got.. thou it might not push my cap far but juz hated the grade that I've got.. wonder if I really did so badly in the final exams.. haiz.. it will be even better if I can do the same for int'l econs but I cant as its my major.. but what matters most is I can grad when all of us fear that we might have to clear any econs mod.. but with grad becoming a reality comes new responsibilities..

I graduated!! thou didnt achieve results to my expectations but happy to pass all modules, esp the killers, int'l, game & health econs.. I survived 4 econs & so did xm.. happy for her as well.. but I wanna s/u reproductive health, got a sucky grade.. prob I took the wrong mod? haiz... can only blame myself for not being knowledgable enough abt myself.. I'm gonna missed the life in NUS now that I really cleared all my modules, too crop up with studies that I missed the fun as a student.. what I hope not all lost are all the friends I have made over the 2.5 years.. my aim now is to realise my next dream & to find a job soon!! Jia you!!

celebrated x'mas with bao & nancy at k-box.. I look so tan now in the pics taken, have not recover back to the old tone ever since I'm back from HK.. I dont wanna join ej's blackie club!! sobz... but the 3 of us had fun...

A brand new year is coming soon.. May I have a good start & bless me with good luck...

Merry x'mas to all friends... it also marks the end of 2007 soon & the beginning of a new year.. hope the year ahead will be a fulfilling one for everyone..



At Hyatt Hotel



Steamboat at Bugis

Gathered with the old iras friends & we are all from the same poly as well.. even thou its been a long time since we last met but we are nv short of topics to talk abt.. Heez.. happy to meet them and do some catching up.. missed the good ole days back then.. QQ & I went shopping at orchard before making our way to Bugis to meet jinyao & eunice.. too bad, YY couldn't join us.. had steamboat at one of the shop which I can't remz what is the name of it.. wasnt satisfying at all.. guess I'm getting more pricky over food with the training from xm.. the seafood was not really fresh, didnt eat to my heart content.. sad.. guess the only thing I like was only the hotdog & the soup base is super hot when its only medium degree hotness.. my lips feel so swollen with the hotness.. to satisfy our tastebud after the disappointment, we went for dessert at 'ah chew'.. chit chat till 10+.. really happy to be seeing them & glad that they are doing fine..

had flu the whole day.. feeling super tired & starting to feel moody as results are releasing soon.. haiz.. may lady luck be shining on me..

have not been using my brain much (xm was saying I better read some books, my brain detoriating.. hmmm... I agree..) except bz clicking away trying my best, hoping to find smthg & hear smthg good but all seems a hopeless case.. haiz.. what else have I not done?? haiz haiz haiz.. results out in 6 days time, the heart-thromping time is nearing.. wonder if i'll make it...

watched alvin & the chipmunks on tues (I think) with bao.. loved theodore to bits.. he's so cute with his nightmares at night.. if u loved cute stuffs, u will love this too!! ate dinner with nancy later in the evening.. went wan chai cafe.. the food wasn't fanstastic, not satisfying at all.. not that I'm not full but it doesnt gives me the 'yummy' feeling & the dessert didnt make things better.. but most importantly, its the gathering of the 3 of us tt counts.. wonder at times, will we still meet up for dinner together down the rd when we aged, will I still be remembered or forgotten?? no matter which gathering I have gone to, these tots always get into me, who will still be there down the road in 5 or 10 yrs? how many friends will still remz me???

finally I have smthg to look fwd to.. will be gg down mwh tml.. its been a long time since I last visited them, hope the aunties still remz me.. later in the night will be gg cousin's house for x'mas dinner.. will get to see all the kids again..

this wk has been a bz week... went for chalet from mon to wed.. didnt do much except played games or watched tv most of the time as it kept on raining non-stop.. sobz.. wanted to swim but nanny didnt bring her swimsuit.. haiz.. was pretty tired by wed.. didnt had a gd sleep bcoz as early as 2.30am on wed, the fire alarm went off & no people seem to care abt it.. OMG!! its so loud & sharp.. nancy had to go call up the person at the counter.. & also, we are staying along the stretch of rooms of young kids who played football in the middle of the night & singing as early as 7am.. oh mine.. we are staying on the 2nd floor but all are heard so clearly.. but I can only contain it all, its a chalet after all.. who goes there to sleep, isnt it?? but nonetheless, the 3 of us spent quality time together.. :)

then went for tt 'thingy' on wed morning after reaching home ard 7.30am... but think I didnt do well.. pretty disappointed with myself.. met up with sh & xm on thurs for movie.. we watched the golden compass.. not a bad show, nicole kidman is really pretty in the show.. but there's gonna be a sequel coz there's no ending.. haiz... but overall, a pretty nice show.. looking fwd to the its part II soon.. guess prob I wud have to wait for another 2 yrs for tt sequel.. fri met up with xm again & wj too for dinner at Organic at tamp.. not a bad first time I had.. I had seadfood pasta.. yummy... & we had yogurt for dessert.. was so full... settled down at yakun for tea coz really nothing to shop le.. imagine I had shopped at tamp for 3 days in a wk... oh Mine!!!

sat, wanted to go k-box but the outlet at parkway parade is closed.. haiz... so in the end, xm, wj & I ended up gg for katong laska.. then we shopped ard until J came... we then make our way to the board game shop.. had fun playing the board games.. tried 2 games.. not too bad but enjoyed the 2nd one better.. so much more fun & the guy was really nice to make sure we know the rules of the game & see us played our first trial... dinner was at the airport.. we ate popeye... not bad.. almost the same as KFC but the mashed potatoes was so much nicer.. heez... a tiring day but had fun thou was disappointed initially coz our plan was wrecked... & I havent done any x'mas shopping yet.. oh no... what sld I buy this yr?? haiz...

mon is the day to look for temp & perm job... may lady luck be shining on me...

feeling kind of lost right now with each day passing.. the feeling wasn't that strong initially but its getting into me right right now.. whenever I see dad going to work, it hit on me I sld quickly get a job to lessen his load & with age catching up, it gets harder to have the energy as before.. but also my results are not out & I'm wondering if I'll get through, no confidence at all.. after all the celebrations, its time for the heart-thumping moment.. all I hope for is a pass, better still if my merit status remains..

as all said, the job industry is not that bad & companies are expanding but opportunities for me are not likewise.. every company are looking at individuals whom are smart with great academic records but I have none.. I'm just an ordinary student with average results.. forget about the recent wed 'thingy'.. think I wreck it.. everyone seem to be spoilt with choices but I'm spoilt with dilemmas..

May 26th dec, 2.30pm not be a crying day....

Its my 100th post!!! also a post which I have to recall what have happened this past wks.. Heez... but a long long one too...

been mugging hard for exams, rain or shine, public holi or wkend, I'll be in the lib mugging hard either with xm, shidah & xp or alone... it also mark the last days of mugging for exams with graduating days ahead, provided I passed all my papers of course.. everyone been pesimistic coz all the papers are shocking!! all of us then started doing preference module ranking.. demoralised with all the papers we do.. after every paper, I started sayinng CUI!! feeling so sad, I wonder if I can grad now with the whole world knowing I'm graduating soon.. keeping my fingers crossed, praying hard.. feeling so tired now, guess I could sleep anytime, anywhere...

during days of mugging, met different kinds of people.. saw my tutors preparing for their exams too.. its also the time when xm trained me to eat regularly.. when the time is up, I'll feel hungry... Haa... everyone is impressed with my appetite & my speed of eating... there are silly things we did too... writing post it for each other with words of encourgement & drawing silly pics.. thou the times are hard but I def missed the days we worked hard together... plus we also wrote a well-wishes on the nussu welfare board... hope we'll stay as the crazy gang forever.. & sorry to all of my craziness at time, singing at your every words...

07th Dec 2007 is our final days in NUS.. had a bunch of friends.. we shared crazy times, stress days, working out tut assignments together.. will miss every single bit of it..

xiumei (Ah Mui aka mei mei aka lao wu): econs kaki who promised we'll hug & sink together & we'll (try to) love econs who I got to know during QET.. my shio babe too!! who loves to eat but still so thin!! she's hungry every 4 hrs & her stomach growl everytime she drank her water.. Haa.. she loves Indian food, Malay food and rice which I have no interest at all & also a teh soh as we all call her.. we go mwh together for comm svc & dinner after tt with wj & ej... she's also the one who sang along with me when we say smthg.. most of the time we ended up in vivo for dinner when we have pilates or when we have craving for smthg.. our love is the ma la steamboat in sch.. (see.. all abt food right.. tts how much she's a food lover & how it made me a fattie also.. her motto in life: live to eat!!)

shidah: her side dish to complement her rice is always fish, tofu & veg... her fav is mango juice which I dislike.. we are crappy & had crazy times together.. she loves the chicken rice at Bugis which we had together during her b'day... she loves green & buying bags & belts... my poly friend as well, gone to the same co for internship.. got to know each other since then & together in uni.. we love karl marx work & hate weber!!

sarah (aka she la): my blur friend who loves fruit juice.. she loves to buy food to motivate us.. Haa... & she loves angmo which ended her up with SPG.. another econs kaki which I got to know better during year 2 but nv a regret... her fav is always western food, always ended up buying the same food.. even if she queue for chinese food, her dish are potatoes and hotdogs which resembles western but cooked in chinese style, isnt it my dear??

xueping: 'wa piang' is her trademark... she loves to say this word.. CUI is also smthg we say in common.. took game theory & health econs together without the others, CUI together.. always end up with qns marks.. in the past, there will be sm, sarah & alvin but now left the two of us.. she muz eat her bf or she will keep repeating 'er shi ta le'.. she's always ahead of time with her 500 years quote.. she always call us her lao ren friends but we very young at heart yay!!! always carrying a big bag & vry enthu with her training..

alvin: he's always pin-pointing my height!! Humph!! shared with us his story of roaming.. had our share of fun together... he's a chocolate lover...

these are my closest friends in uni... of course there are many others.. like shirley, chiyin, meihui, jialin & many others which I have known thru my uni life.. they def made my uni life a better one & left with great memories.. & also all my fav lecturers..

we ended our day in engine canteen eating my fav salmon don.. I swear its really vry nice, juicy & big portion too.. then we head to co-op to shop the so call last time.. went later to arts canteen to eat hesley pie at BK (alvin's fav)... went orchard after tt.. wanted to take more photos in sch but started raining.. SOBZ... shop ard at orchard & we ate at Fish & Co after tt.. too tired to really shop as we were all deprived of sleep.. went back ard 9+ to meet our respective zhou gongs!!

today went shopping with bao & next wk will be chalet!! muz accumulate enuff sleep to enjoy myself nxt wk.. then muz start thinking what I wanna do in life.. what sld I do?? no news from 'them' yet.. the place which I wanna be.. will good news come soon? May god blessed me with good luck... sleep & luck is what I need now!!1
