happy chinese new year!!
how has it been for u? to me, its been a weird one. have not really gone visiting.. just a few families.. seems to be going out with friend more.. most importantly, there is NO bak kua, kueh bankih, he bi hiam ( spicky dried shrimp) rows at relatives houses. last time there used to be so much goodies that it jst cant be finished, this year, food amt seemed to diminished.. BUT.. amt of burberry bagss, lvs, pradas have appear on pples hands.. more pple spending $$ on quality luxury items insted of necessitites? i wonder

friday night . at home.

watched the 9pm show.. the senile ah gong was shaking his daughter-in-law..shouting: ah ping! u cannot die! ah ping! u cannot die! ah ping! u cannot die! i give u chocolate! i give u money! with money u cannot die! here here i give u $$ u cannot die!

at that moment.. my tears rolled down.. dunnoe is sad, touched, or wat, just felt deeply that it was so true.. when someone who is so impt to u leaves, even if u had not expressed ur gratitude, how would u react? if one day this senario happens to u, wat would u do?

its friday night. i am bored. not going out.. want to do out. but no plans.. bored.. why? too used to working late.. the long nights are a bit hard to bear... haiz..

the invite card


our meetup!

this week, i worked 12 days in a row.. last sat and sun was spent at suntec for the 50+ expo.. and then its back to work again on monday.
so tired. so freaking tired.. but who understands? who is to understand?
perhaps everyone is facing the same thing.. no one is complaining.why should i?

sometims i am really tired.. not sure where i am going. not sure wat i am doing.
why always late, why always behind timeline. why? why me?
my boss.. quite nice, capable women, ambitious, yet carin to workers. i admire her creativity, i like the way she make ideas come true. and one thing.. she spends time to develop us, and the chance.. is quite priceless.
i really hope to walk away with an accomplishment.
perhaps this life.. i dun really have any much accomplishment to speak of, not much of anything to my name..
a few days back.. was thinking .. maybe i should go back to the service industry.. just be a small little worker.. should i? may i? could i?

listen to this on a quiet night..

FALL IN LOVE - KOINI OCHITE

Moshimo Negai ga kanau nara
Toiki o Shiroi bara ni Kaete
Aenai hi ni wa
Heya jyuu ni Kazarimasyou
Anata o omoi nagara

Darling, I want you Aitakute
Tokimeku koi ni Kakedashi sou nano
Maigo no you ni Tachisukumu
Watashi o sugu ni Todoketakute

Daiyaru mawashite Te o tometa
I’m just a woman fall in love

If my wishes can be true
Will you change my sighs
To roses, whiter roses
Decorate them for you
Thinking ’bout you every night
And find out where I am
I am not livin’ in your heart

Darling, I need you Doushitemo
Kuchi ni dasenai Negai ga aru no yo
Doyou no yoru to nichiyou no
Anata ga itsumo hoshii kara

Daiyaru mawashite Te o tometa
I’m just a woman fall in love

Darling, you love me Ima sugu ni
Anata no koe ga Kikitaku naru no yo
Ryoute de Hoo o Osaetemo
Tohou ni kureru Yoru ga kirai

Daiyaru mawashite Te o tometa
I’m just a woman fall in love

I’m just a woman fall in love

just when i though this xmas was not feeling festive enough, it has already ended. xmas is come and gone, so has the new year. in fact its 5 jan, 360 days to go!


as i am writing this. i am still sort of basking in some sort of funny fuzzy feeeling after sending bq off to the airport. sort of silly but more of sweet, where all or us gathered to have dinner with bq , sending him off to US, and only to have him come back next monday! haha... seeing everyone again was good..

in some way, it was still a short and gladly, non-commercialised xmas.simple dinners...great friends.. wat more can i ask for. hope the 3302 gals will be free up next!

part ii:

i feel i have worked very hard when the following has happen:
1) monday 7pm starts to feel like tuesday 7pm..
2) its only tuesday and i realise i dun have enough time to do all my stuff
3) i dun like holidays on weekdays. noone is around for me to contact..
4) my home chair feels v odd.. and my work chair is totally my size
5) my home table is tidy and dusty, i cannot see my work desk
6) its 6pm .. pple are going home.. and i think i can finally start on my own work..
