Flights.

Flights. Doesn’t it make you think of aeroplanes? Yup, I went to the airshow! (: it’s super AWESOME. I get to see the stunts like everyday for the past 4 days while I’m at work (: (MO is doing the catering for some companies)

Saw the F16 fighter jets. Zomg, very majestic. AND AND AND I SAW THE US AIR FORCE K. Like, upclose, seriously. Damn nice, I tell you. Many planes were on exhibition and yep, I got to kope some souvenirs. Haha.  (singaporeans what) Kope souvenirs not for myself but for friends (super paiseh hor)

So anyway, the exhibition hall was…HUGE. I sorta lost my way inside with Brenda. It’s super BIG. Major companies like Boeing, ST Engineering, Airbus were all there. It’s a very engineer-y event so if you ain’t a fan, you MIGHT get bored. But if you reeeeeally love planes, you should jump down for missing it. Kay, I was just kidding about the previous point (: chillax!

So yea, there is an exhibition hall and there are chalets for the companies. Not holiday chalets but business chalets (where they talk and seal deals). Stuck there for like 10 hours each day. Standing by the door (boringggg), then making beverages. It’s very mundane, very routined. I’d rather do a wedding dinner, surprisingly. The nice thing about the chalet I’m working at has a super awesome balcony that overlooks the airplanes exhibition.  Never mind the fact that the heat is sweltering and we are wearing black shirt, black pants and black apron. Walking toaster.

It was fun, in a very…strange way. It sounds and is boring but I don’t know why I find joy in doing such stuffs =.= fold napkins, sit down and slack and fold napkins, chatting at the pantry.  Very relaxed job, you might think. Actually, it IS a slack job. But who’s complaining? (:

I really hate walking from chalet area to the main exhibition hall.  DAMN FAR. Twice as far you’d think when you are under the hot sun. Oh, sod it. It IS a fun event to take part in luh (:  (including the fact that you get souvenirs/memoribilias)

It’s shocking how some people are so manipulative, seriously. I might be wrong but am I entitled to have my own opinions? Yes, I do, in fact. Some people have changed so much, I don’t quite recognise them anymore. It’s not their face or physical appearance but gotta do with attitude and behaviour. Aiya, can’t be bothered to talk about it already (:

I’m just here for a QUICK update, people. Don’t miss me too much k? I’ll be back soon (:

Let’s play a game.

Battlefield.

Yowxzx people! It’s been eons since my last post, I know. Not that bad luh, just slightly more than a month back onlyyy. So yup, everything’s fine (as always) and life’s awesome (:

I’m treated more like a regular at MO these days (which is a good thing) and yup, I love it like that (L)

Hmm, got my O levels results already. Did better that I expected and I’m all satisifed, contented (: and yes! I’m posted to SP Media and Comm! (: weeeell, you might be curious why I rejected NP Mass Comm’s offer. Since I was so into it back then. But anyway, it was then but I’m living in the now so yea, I won’t bother to explain myself already (:

I’m looking forward to Poly life already! Zomg, school starts in April luh! Sooo long. Anyway anyway, I saw Boys Like Girls! As in real life and upclose (: jealous jealous? Haha, Martin Johnson (the lead singer) is SUPER HANDSOME! Hees, one of the many perks working at MO (:

Sucks man, Facebook is getting slower. Uhm, sidetracked. OH! I witnessed that whatever-you-call-it military wedding thing. Swords something one luh. It’s super cool, seriously. It’s uber grand and very…spectacular. Gosh, this wedding was a dinner and dance. Dinner and dance manz. It was one of my favourite weddings to do so far. Never mind the fact that I ended work around 3 plus that day (: it was a very nice wedding and the bride was super pretty.

Chinese weddings are not quite a kick to me already (: did like, near 20 weddings. If I still don’t get it, then maybe there’s something seriously wrong with me. You know, the songs they play during weddings are super sentimental. It’s those oldies. Super classic. OH! I earned Ricky’s 2 bucks from that what’s-the-course game. Awesome (Y)

OHOHOH! The class chalet was a blast. In a way. Uhm, most turned up and hopefully they had fun. Grocery shopping with Ziqi was fun! Omg, two girls and two trolleys full of groceries=hilarious joke. Omg, should totally upload the piccas of the trolleys manzx. I think I might just settle for catering next time round. I didn’t say anything about planning the next one hor.

Okay, til here for now. I’ve got plenty of other things to do. I WANT TO SEE SHINee LIVE LUH!!! ZOMGZXZ THEY ARE SUPER CUTE!

Kay. Byez. At least I DID update (:

Say your prayers.

HOLA! Life’s good. It’s not a random statement, by the way. Well, time is being filled up, ’nuff moolah. I like.

Oh yea, I began working at Mandarin Oriental already! I like! (L) Even though the environment is pretty pressurising, it’s waaaaaaaayyy better than the pressure from O levels. Yea, really! Uh huh, the supervisors are nice people but their language is very uhm, colourful. That is you know what I mean, of course. I like working there though the pressure and expectation might literally drive you crazy.

So, uhm, I’ve done two wedding dinners. Omg, the food served were…SUMPTUOUS. No joke. Got 8 course and 9 course dinner seh! Piang, once you see the food served, you’d get hungry. I cross my heart and swear.

I’m pretty sure I didn’t do anything wrong/stupid/retarded. But nevertheless still got scolded. I mean, who wouldn’t go through that right? So the newbies were scolded by Edwin. Trust me, what he said make sense. So I bloody realised my mistakes and moved on from there. Benson asked how was my first day. I’d replied, “Stressful.” Well, it is. For a newbie of course. Not certain what you’e expecting. I reached home around 3. Nice.

That was the first wedding dinner I helped out at. So the second was on Sunday. Ah ha! It went smoother. But I guess it’s a pretty grand wedding. Quite a lot of supervisors were around that day. Got Ricky, May, Edwin, Benson, Jonathan and a few more. Really la, 9 course dinner leh. What do you think? Grand seh. Food served was SUMPTUOUS, as usual. Reached home early that day.  Around 2. Didn’t book work for this week. Gah, bored at home already.

And and and, did I tell you the two brides have really pretty wedding gowns? Ohmigod, very elaborated wedding gowns. They aren’t your typical white wedding gowns. One has got a dark turquoise wedding gown and the other had a lychee pink gown, if I remembered clearly. Sweet. I like! (L)

Yes, the environment might be pressurising initially but once you have a clearer idea of what’s going on, trust me, you can handle it. I’m soooo looking forward to the next week’s schedule (:

And ya, my partners were verrrrry nice people! They helped me A LOT. Ya lah, I noob. So yea, they were very helpful people and willing to teach. And most of them covered for me when I couldn’t handle too much at a time. Thanks, people! Most of the female staffs there were friendly, very sociable. Made friends with a few! Some were pretty exclusive and bossy. Nah, I ain’t giving a flying fish about those stuck up people (:

It ’s even more awesome to work with  friends. HAHA, Ziqi, Sam, Roy and Sijia. It just makes the whole job seem more enjoyable. In what sense I don’t know. But it’s certainly much fun (:

Ohoh, MERRY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY 2010, folks!

I’m hungry (again) so ciaos!

Back to those days.

Hi! I’m back! After 912837465 years. Yea, been too lazy to blog (fine!), and didn’t really have the time to blog. Busy shifting house and working, of course. Couldn’t get wasted like that (:

Oh yes, Hongkong was TREMENDOUS FUN! Went to Disneyland (L) and Ladies’ Market. Really interesting though. You’d be surprised to see how similar Hongkong is to Singapore. The pace and lifestyle. Similar, but not the same. The wanton noodles there are HEAVENLY. A very generous serving (Y) and the wanton are really filled. It has fresh shrimps inside! Not that pathetic like Singapore one lah, wrap minced meat only.

Ladies’  Market is something like Bugis Street. The street stalls, atmosphere are pretty much the same. Bougsht a pair of sunnies a dead cheap price. Went to Mongkok Square and bought a bag. The tram ride around the Hongkong Island was so like Singapore’s CBD area. The MTR (HK’s train service) was clean and efficient. Good way to get around. Fares are reasonable.

Highlight’s up next (:

Disneyland is really…majestic. The castles and themeparks were fun! That’s an understatement k. It’s mindblowing-ly, fantabulous-ly, out-of-this-world fun! If I had the chance again, I would wanna go back there. But fyi, it’s SMALL compared to France, Japan, Florida and California (I think) Disneyland.

Yes, it’s small compared to other themeparks but it’s pretty easy to lose your way inside actually. I’ll scan the map and post it some other time. Took photos with Stitch (veh cute!) and Woody and Jessie (the cowgirl in TS2). Mickey and Minnie mouse had throngs of people that wanted their piccas. I gave it a miss. You should see the crowd, honestly. Poor mice.  Their jaws must have ached. Saw hilarious people that became the butt of my jokes (:

The fireworks at night were SPECTACULAR. They have it every night, y’know! For a solid 10 minutes, fireworks erupted across the  night sky, above Sleeping Beauty’s castle. Simply breath-taking. You’d be left in awe.

Aha, the hotel part. Stayed at Hollywood Hotel. 5 stars, I guarantee. One room has two queen sized bed. Whoa, somewhat royalty huh. But I had to share with Emme. Not that bad, considering we had a room to ourselves in Kowloon. Bought some souvenirs and yes, I’m a happy girl. Along Main Street USA, artificial snow was falling from the machines (not sky) and the mood was so christmas-sy. I like!

Then then, it’s back to Singapore. Was there for 5D4N. Short trip but fun trip, that’s for sure. HK Airport is BIG and clean, certainly. Took Cathay Pacific Airlines to and fro. Nice, I like. (L)

It was a great experience, nevertheless. Sharing one room with Emme was hilarious. We didn’t sleep til like 430 in the morning k. We watched TV until we fall asleep. TV maniacs, I know. We were crazy. You can hear me laughing even like, you’re next door. Whatever, but it was a heaven load of fun (:

Then back to Singapore (I miss HK alr). Working my ass off almost everyday. But life’s good, in fact. My mum dreamt that I got 8 points for O levels! AMEN TO THAT, I tell you! AMEN AMEN AMEN! (: It shall be and it WILL be! (:

Working at Mandarin Oriental for the first time this thursday! Excited and/or nervous. The heels were not kill, I pray.

I’m tired typing so much and I’m hungry for chocolates. Ciaos, til the next entry!

On high.

Prom was over! Secondary school life is over as well. I’m a bit reluctant, though, honestly. Been through much ups and downs but secondary school life has gotta be the one of the most exciting chapters in my life danced all night, got high, did crazy stuffs, trotted home on high heels

Prom was memorable, really the emcees were very hilarious. Cracking very retarded jokes. And oh, they were the CVSS version of F4. Not too bad eh, people?

Oh, prom king and queen were saiful and esther respectively! Congrats, you two!

I won’t be posting up the prom piccas anytime soon. Prolly post them up with piccas from hongkong

Now that prom is over, school is officially over, can start planning for an awesome-out-of-this-world-uber-fantabulous class bbq already!

I’m on high, as usual. Gotta start packing for holiday trip!

Ciaos!

So long, farewell.

O levels are finally over. Can’t quite believe it, y’know. It all happened like, in a flash. I miss school days. Sitting at the back and laughing at jokes. Can’t even freaking believe what I’m typing. I’m still sane, amazingly. I miss those days school days, I honestly do. I’m so not getting nolstagic here anyway (:

So yea, graduation night’s coming like, in two days’ time. That’s like, so soon! Was out shopping the whole day, feeling dead beat currently. Got to start working soon (: need something to do keep me awake and alive and probably senile, y’know. I hate waiting for results. Random thought, anyway.

So many things happened over the week or so and I think I’ll let it off all here. On my blog, my personal space. Y’know when people keep harping on a certain flaw about you, it stinks a great deal, right? When it’s always the same old thing they’re nagging on and on about. Frankly, what pleasure do you all get? Some people might agree that I’m a bit stuck up when you guys first saw me, but hey, I ain’t that bad either. Whatever you might think I may be, I don’t give a flying shit anymore.

There are certainly some people that claim they know me well enough. Yes, THERE ARE people that know me well enough to know what I like, what I dislike but when it comes to innermost thoughts, rarely anyone gets me. I’m not complicated, I’m really not at all. Self-defense? Perhaps. It’s an in-built mechanism, isn’t it?

I’m frustrated at how things are now. It’s like, I can’t do a single a shit about it and it’s bloody irritating. I can’t do anything so I’m not gonna do about it already. I’m tired, I don’t wanna do anything anymore. Need a good rest, a break. From all these nonsense, all the drama.

Lord, give me the strength and courage to endure on. Give me wisdom to make the right judgement. It’s no longer what I can do but what You can do, Lord. These burdens, worries, I leave it to your big, mighty hands. It’s not me anymore but You, Lord. Amen.

Undercover.

30 odd days to the big O’s. Started working very very hard now. I’m learning to handle the stress.

Problems keep occuring but I’m trusting God that everything’s fine.

Maybe I’m too dense to know what’s exactly going on, I don’t think I wanna bother about it anymore. Perhaps I’m too blunt.

Pretence, is something that I’m good at. It’s like putting on a mask so no one will really know how sad or happy I am. That real me might scare you too much. The mask is taken off around people who really truly know me.

I don’t really need people to understand me because I’ve always been complicated. I gave up on being myself a long time ago, to spare people the trouble. Don’t try to read me, you might end up seeing a shrink.

Like I’ve said, sometimes, humans are better off without friends. Solitude, don’t necessarily mean a bad thing, you know. No, I’m not depressed or whatsoever.

I know people don’t always like to say “sorry” so I’m used to it. I’m used to people who keep apologising as well. I’m immuned to either.

Note to self: crying doesn’t solve problems. It honestly doesn’t.

P/S. Thank you girls, for your concern (: you guys rock absolutely.

I’ll scream your name.

I’m gonna go crazy. The race is on and it’s starting tomorrow. Bloody shiz, I have even got down to doing any revision! Oh dear, this IS bad.

I don’t know if I can get the results I really. Procrastination is getting a good hold of me. Like now! I want to eat hand-made onigiri.

Another 80 odd days to O levels (omg, holy shiz)! I don’t feel the pressure as yet. Omg, HOW?! I work best under pressure. Not much like enzymes, of course.

And OH! O levels Chinese results are gonna be out soon! My A1 please, Daddy God! Fingers crossed.

Haven’t got news from Ngee Ann Poly yet (why! omg, i’m freaking out)!

English O levels oral coming soon. I am so not gonna crash and burn this time round

Patience, was never my virtue.

You know how terrifying is it to be waken up by some horrible memory? Incidents that left bloody screwed up memories at the back of your head. Sucks much. How nice to be woken up like that on a Sunday morning.

I hate it.

I don’t like how these things come back and haunt me. Try as I may, they never seem to go away. They just remain there, remants of what was used to be. I am afraid of what will happen. Afraid of running back to the past. I don’t want to do that. I am trying to let things go and not hate anything, or anybody.

Time will heal, I know. But I can’t wait. God probably made time to fill up voids in our lives and allow scars/pain/regret to wash away. He doesn’t want to give a quick zap to resolve our problems. I believe he wants to permanently fix the problems we face. I think I know what it means.

Patience, was really not my virtue right from the start anyway. I like instant results. Honestly, that hardly happens. Waiting for a call irks me. I go into a frenzy when things aren’t happening the way it should have been. I think I should start going back to church, seriously.

Trusting God for a breakthrough has always been easy thing for me to do, but why can’t I do it this time round? Maybe, it’s really time to let go and let God take the wheel.

Honey bees.

I am freaking busy these days, oh Lord. I don’t think I even have time to breatheeeee. Gawd, how awful. Now I want to attend a masquerade. Now masquerade will be my word. HAHA HOW RANDOM.

I want to go Korea! Lord, I can’t wait for the big O to be overrrr. Then I can live my life properly. Without homework too! I need retail therapy badly

I don’t even have time to eat lunch with Mom. Gawd, studying for Os really kills. It’s like having cramps after cramps then you get diarrhea and you wouldn’t want to hear me continue. Yea, THAT miserable. Emme’s house is a chalet. Really.

Liberation Day’s in exactly 4 months time. Mark your calendars ‘cuz Yours Truly is on a roll by then

Masquerade, seriously.

I need the ipod-av cable. It’s pricey, damn it. I want Dr. Martens Green boots, thank you so very much.

I want to eat soba noodles. I want to drink chamomile tea. I perform well under stress. I need stress. Bye.
