Sorry & thanks

alright.. come to think of it, my job isn't bad. I do like the people, though I hardly talk to them. haha.. in this last week of my job, i'm suddenly flooded with work - did you know you can type till your hand feels real weird? haha~ that's twice today that i fell asleep in front of the comp, totally unintentional(!) and drooled la! ><

cham~ i need eyedrops. :p

i think what amuses me most is when i overhear (eh, not eavesdrop, really cannot help it) my colleagues on the phone. Lol! Oookkay, this is called 'beggars can't be choosers'; but really, can be quite funny - and sweet.

Like when they speak to exasperating 'complainers', they have no qualms in showing their annoyance. My supervisor's head is super frank la! I really never met such a person as her - if i were the one on the other end getting scolded like a schoolkid by her, I'd be lidat --> '''O.O'''
hahaha~ but i quite pei fu those ppl w jobs needing them to pick up phone. I hear from ppl like Jean n Sy's blog hor - then it's really like, I'll sure get offended! Esp when they know you're temp staff.. lol.. but thank goodness my dear friend is the comp..

haha.. i quite thankful la, e other temp staff - 5 girls, Yijin, Huiting, Jiapei, Kai Wei n (i dunno her name..oh no..), were real friendly tho I m like e only one who dunno everyone else frm sec sch or JC la.. haha~ yea~ i was kinda shocked that they asked me out for dinner to send me off! I think i'm really convicted abt this whole 'fitting-in' and 'clicking' thing. I feel happier when i just take people for who they are and go, 'yea, fine, that's cool.' I'd rather ppl being different than similar to me frankly. Haha~! I wanna go people-watching someday with my sketchbk - but i get plenty of that from church - what with 40+ members in CG! XD It's funny how you can love ppl tt under normal circumstances, you'd never approach or get to know through networking amongst ur friends in the world - meaning, totally different from u! almost every person in W345, presents a culture shock to me - we're all funny compositions of characters n interests! It was stressful at first, n it still takes an effort to participate actively like before, but one thing tt i really got when performing in emerge is tt ppl aren't here to put u down. Really. Ok, most ppl like 99.9% of the world. You'd be surprised how many ppl are eager to get on your side n get into your life - if only you'd let them!


yea.. i dunno leh.. i just walk out of this funk, n then i suddenly find it v tiring 'trying' by my own reasoning, to do the right things n judging everything n everyone else by my set of standards. Lol.. sometimes, I find tt people dun want or need u to be 'polite', or to do the right thing - basic courtesy is fine, but loosen up!

There was one thing abt Steve Irwin's eulogy tt really touched me n made me feel sad for the loss: He's a real straight-forward bloke. What you see is what you get.

But i find i'm a different person as a stranger, then as an acquaintance, then as a friend. a big SORRY to all those i haven't been sincere, straightforward, caring enough. Really. Here's a great shocker to u ppl out there; there are ppl tt actually can't be spontaneously 'fun', eg. me. haha~ but one thing; expect something big, not necessarily fun, when you ask God, 'what's wrong with me?' still, it's worth it.

There must be more than this Oh breath of God come breathe within There must be more than this Spirit of God we wait on You Fill us anew we pray Fill us anew we pray Consuming fire fan into flame A passion for Your name Spirit of God won't You fall in this place Lord have your way Lord have your way in us Stir it up in our hearts Lord Stir it up in our hearts Lord Stir it up in our hearts Lord a passion for your name As Sy Rogers said today, there are things we can look back on, our memorial stones, that encourage us and give us strength to move forward. I rmb a time I was so far away and so tired of people in general, cos really it's relationships that really get me down - n when Jean would walk in on me crying or just sitting and not even having the energy to do stuff, she would listen n say 'just cry out to God alright?' and that would be the last thing i wanted to hear. sometimes you know what to do, and you know what the advice will be, but when the emotions are n

beauty and the beast

Best movie ever! I admit, I was totally sceptical at what I thought was another attempt to spoil a good thing. But musicals... haven't regretted watching a single one, from Chicago, Burlesque, Les Miserables (though I only found out it was fully a musical midway)! We live and we learn :) Ok, here's how good it was. I went back to watch it a second time. Hee. It's definitely one of those movies to watch alone - so you can cry at all the odd moments. I gather from the odd chuckles and silences from my fellow movie-watchers, that we were all touched by the movie in one way or the other. None of us wanted to live till we saw the end of the credits. You have to leave immediately when the lights come on though, so you can go remove any traces of the tear tracks. Loved Belle for being both feisty and just lovely. Emma Watson, you danced beautifully; I was half-in-love with you myself! And of course Beast and the eye-rolling, bumbling-ness of him. The best of it all was t

on mountains and perspective

Kept awake by a bout of traveler's diarrhea and the ensuing abdominal colic. Just been back from an attempt at Mount Kinabalu, 'highest mountain in Southeast Asia'. Okay, those apostrophes are there out of bitterness... it really is the highest mountain in Southeast Asia. And I couldn't even attempt the summit. Made it to the base camp at 3067 m though... that's what it says on my black-and-white certificate - colored ones are only for successful summit-ers.  Crrr! But I made it back with my life. And I'm humbler for the attempt, though how could I resist the parting shot: "I'll be back!"? But on a more serious note, it's an awesome thing, a beautiful gift to be able to get out there into as natural a surrounding you can get (without dying a slow tv-less death from cold, altitude sickness, projectile vomit and did I mention cold?). It truly seems like one never can be happy - despite all my first-world comforts, I'd gladly pay to painf
