Shall try to keep this as alive as possible!!

Been busy since my last paper. Only manage to start slacking today~

Had worked at Career Fair 2011 from Thurs to Sun... For the 1st time, I'm working full 4 days. The last 2 years, I missed out the 1st day due to exams... Enjoyed myself this time round due to the friends I made this year... Still find it hard to believe that my partner for Career Fair 2011 is my seconday junior... Talk about the world being small...

Slack a bit on Mon by meeting up with deardear in the afternoon, before both of us leave for work in the evening... Dropped by JDA before I went to work to get some advice from Christin about preparing the crafting stuff.

Then last Tue all the way to Fri had been busy with preparing the stuff for Sat's flea market @ MF... Crazy among of cutting and folding and scoring and stamping! Create cards as well as card kits for sale~ Lucky, this massive production didn't turn me off from crafting, not even for a short while...

Sat was mostly spent at Flea market... Didn't go as well as I hope, but at least it's in a way a form of publicity for my cards, and manage to promote my blogshop as well... Got a customized card order!!

Spend Sat night with WY @ Icing Room... Drop by JDA to handover my shortlisted Feb HA challenge card... And also tell Christin how the flea market went... Went Bishan to find WY and start on the cake decorating~ Enjoyed ourselves...

And today, I'll be spending the time sort my wardrobe... Can't stand the messiness in it~~



Would be working 4 out of 5 weekend nights... Mon & Wed at Yogurt place... Tues and Fri would be teaching tuition... Left Fri for any plans to be carry out.

Being Appreciated and Recognise

Have been in a good mod since last night. Thanks to an ART TRADE with fellow tumblr member.

What is an ART TRADE?
It's a special request between two artist, trading their artwork. Can be anything as long as both are okay. Commonly seen in tumblr is doodles/drawings that are being used for Art Trade.

Had decided to go for the art trade even though I been holding myself back, as I didn't believe my craft skills are up to standard. You won't know until you tried, ain't it?

Ever since I got in the the craft craft since July 2009, making cards for loved ones for birthdays and anniversary have been a norm for me. Appreciation and praise for the effort put in, as well as the unique design for each card.

In a way, soon I wanted those cards to be more than just a simple gift to my loved ones. I wanted to share my cards, reaching out to more than just those around me.

So, I started to post my cards on facebook. And around september/october poly break, I started to set up tumblr as well as devianART just to share my craftwork.

Even though I had done those with the mindset of wanting to reach out to more people, but I didn't really expect that it would work. Thus, every now and then, I'm pleasantly surprised to see notification of appreciation for all these card I had done.

Due to the Art Trade that I done recently, I had reach out to even more people as the fellow tumblr had posted my craftwork in her tumblr. Can you believe 200% increasement for followers?

And this happy feeling, or maybe I can call this as satisfaction, had been in me since last night ever since I saw how many people had liked my card.

I feel appreciated.
I feel recognised.
And it really boost my confidence about my card making.

And all these had to thank everyone out there.

Internet really do wonders ^^

Mails...

I wasn't really into mails... But recent two years, or rather last year to be specific, was the year that I had the most mails ever. And it's all because of one person...

Looking at those mails, even including hand-delivered, bring back memories and trigger thoughts and emotions.

Yet, those had belonged to the past. A past that is practically not possible to bring back at all.



Dear ________,

I miss the times when mails were an unexpected surprise from you.

From me.

Somehow, I feel that even if there's someone else who going to send me mails, it would never replace that feeling that I had last year. Because, those memories and emotions that trigger, belong to this certain someone. Someone who had once shared that special fate with me. Someone who shared that special number with me.

Letting Go?

"拿的起放得下"

Who's able to really do the above? I know I can't, even though I'm still trying to do so.

Things that happen in my life, especially when it comes to things related to relationships, I'm still unable to let things go, despite how badly that it had gone to.

At times I really wonder, is it really the end? How could it have ended, especially in such a bad way? As if, what we had been before, was just nothing?

Besties, soulmates, sisters, friends... Did all these names/status even meant anything to you before, or just that it no longer matters now?


It's so easy to just remove someone from facebook, msn, contact list... And it seems that it is as easy to remove someone from your life, from your past, as if it had never happen before.

Sorry, but I'm not able to do it. No matter how hurt I had gotten, not mater how upset I get when I sees how things had turn out, I still unable to let things go and move on. Unable to totally remove someone from my facebook, msn nor contact list, much less from my life or past.


I still recalled back on those times. Those times when we hang out. Those endless chat. Those common likings. Doesn't anything remind you of anything?


I told myself to stay out, to not be bother about your life. But times and again, I couldn't stop myself. Times and again, I asked myself, why bother, when I'm longer exists in your life. Why bother, when you no longer regards me?



I may not remember at a certain point of time... But I would never let it go from my mind... When a journey was once shared between us... Have you forgotten the road that we once walk together?

New Camera

Finally got my hands on my own digital camera!!! SAMSUNG ST600!

Bought it with my YOG pay ^^ ~S$550... 1 8gb memory card, 2 battery, 1 tripod, 1 cleaning solution, 1 pouch.

Decided to get this after a super duper long consideration! From Fujifilm, ended up being samsung dual screens... From PL150, become ST550... and now finally ST600!


Goodbye YOG pay after having to replace my lost mp3 and getting this camera...

If my handphone is Samsung as well... I would really be a samsung gal already (quote hidayah!)

Minor Operation

Had a minor operation today to correct the right eye lower lid, two weeks after that operation. Local anesthetic this time round... And having it at the clinic instead...

*Shudders* Thinking back to the surgery at Mt A that day... Terrible experience due to the general anesthetic... Couldn't move at all when the doctor wake me immediately after the surgery to tell me that it went smoothly... Throat was stuck with phlegm... But I couldn't even cough to clear the throat...

The metallic smell that keep on lingering... Each cough causing me to throw up whatever is in my stomach... Even when there isn't any food in it! And due to this, I was stuck in the hospital until evening, even though the surgery was completed in the morning before 11am.

And thanks to that, I'm scare of anesthetic and operation! (as if I wasn't scare in the first place)


Didn't want to go for the minor operation, but mom made me do so. Just a day notice... Or should I say 12hour notice?

So much for there won't be pain when under anesthetic! I could feel where the doctor cut my lid, where he stitch it up! And it's hurt! Imagine a needle going through your skin and out, and that's not all, as it has to pull along the string!


I can't wait for everything to end. ARGH! 1st October removing stitches. I hope he can just removed all the stitches at one go instead of what he done previously! Removing the external ones, wait a week before removing the inner one...

Pissed off... There goes my pay again... Another month of pathetic pay =.=

Fate... is a funny thing

Just like what I had posted on my msn PM:

"Fate is a funny thing... You never know how things would turn out ultimately for you and somebody..."

Fate seems to be telling me, that things are out of our control at times, that situations ain't what we expect it to turn out to be. Things changes, so does humans as well as situations...

A lot of things had changed through this 1+year. Too many on related to relationship, especially some of the closer friendships.

There's a season for everything... There isn't a forever in anything... Especially for friendship... Even the closest friendship would drift apart...

Two incidents had shown me that letting time do its job would be better than to try to make things better. Rather than thinking things could be better by doing something for them and ignore your own feelings. Because, ultimately, they still going to be in their own mindset, thinking how much you are hurting them only.

At least, the distance was close up slightly with the other one. Unexpected, but it was really great chatting with her the other day... Wishing her well, and hopefully one day get to meet up again...

As for the other two... Leave it as such... I'm tired of trying to do something to improve or maintain the situation, when ultimately, the other party just can't be bother nor blame your for the unhappiness etc. Intruder? Spoil your happiness? Fine then, I leave, so stop blaming me when any other problem/unhappiness arise. Because I'm not even there anymore.



At least... I know, who are the friends who are truly there. And that is why I had posted in FB: " I don’t have to look for a true friend because if someone is true to me, they’ll just stay." I not staying for some anymore, because they doesn't even regards me as a friend to them.

An uncle had commented to monitor when I had commented that I'm lucky to have a few true/best friends around, and not just one/two only. Telling me that the truthful one have yet to appear and that's how life is.

But... Mine had appeared. Not just one or two. But a whole group of them. Situations since primary til now, I have seen who are the ones who are truthful, who are the ones who are sincere in the friendships. Even though most of these are peeps that I know online, but it's much more truer than any other friendship that I have.

Even though the longest is only seven years... But I know, there will be more years to come for this and the other relationships...


We shall see, what fate have for us in the future...

Birthday 2010 ^^

Had a wonderful 20th birthday...

Thanks to those around me... for the surprise, the celebration, the wishes ^^

Celebrations had started two days before my birthday, on 20th June 2010. A trip to Singapore Science Center (SSC) & Pixar Exhibition was more than what I had expected!

Even though a little monkey (you know who you are!) had let the cat peek out of the bag just to annoy me and get the name of the person who sms-ed her. I wasn't prepare for the surprise that was waiting for me at the corner of SSC McDonald! Being prank right for the start of the day (or should I say months before?) when MH told me that she would be late and told me to wait for them at Jurong East MRT station as they did not know the route to SSC *wonder why did I even believe them when they just went to SSC LAST OCTOBER!!!!*

End up they took cab down to SSC, thus I waited at MRT station for 1/2hr for 'NOTHING' =.= Walk over to SSC to find MH outside Mac waiting for me. She had waved to me and thought I saw her, but I didn't!! Not until she called me. She told me SH went to the gents, when in actual fact, he went to hunt for candle or was it lighter? Then called and make sure they ready before we went in. I thought we waited outside because Mac too many people, but it was rather empty inside =.= Only the front part of Mac look packed

Went in and the first thing person I saw was CASA!!! And on the table was HOTCAKES DECORATED WITH M&Ms AND A CANDLE ON IT!!!! Though someone had kind of leak a little that there's something planned for me, I never expect it to be right in the morning!


So birthday song can blowing of candle... Then off to get the proper breakfast! While eating breakfast, it was story telling from MH, SH and Casa ^^

Retrieve our tickets while waiting for Gabriel... Only then I realise, they planned it months ago! Casa had long confirmed his attendance with MH!!! And they made Casa bluff me that he can't confirm until nearer date =.=

Enjoyed both the Pixar Exhibition as well as visit to SSC. New exhibitions added! Me and MH were like teachers bringing students out for excursion :P The guys are more engross in the exhibition than me and MH... Especially at Mind's Eye. Rant mode on: they don't believe when I explain the exhibition to them *pouts*

While the guys were engross with the exhibition, me and MH were getting bored and tired. We were waiting for them to move on to the Sound exhibition. It's new, thus wanting to try out. Then MH received a call to say that her "mom" rushing her to go down to meet them.

Leave SSC and walk into another surprise! In order for me not to spot the surprise, MH chiong to Mac, while SH distract me by nearing getting himself into wet spot. Haha... He say he wanna try to chiong into the water feature! And MH dare him to do so~ To the point he said out to himself if he really need to take off his shoe to do it. Later on he told us, he was quite worry that if I still didn't see the surprise, he really need to take out his handphone and pass it to me to hold.

But then, lucky for him, I spotted my mom! Because her top is very very striking purple! And I saw her even though she stood pretty far in. And I didn't even see MH and Jenson when they are closer to me than my mom was!

And ta-da~ Surprise 2!!! I was so touched til I cried!! Because I totally totally didn't expect it to happen! Since there was already a celebration in the morning. *Originally I thought the celebration would be after the outing thus I wasn't prepare to have one in the morning. But after having the morning one, I didn't expect the second to take place!*

Thanks MH for planning. Thanks Sotong for being the middle(wo)man. Thanks Jenson for getting the cake and wait for such a long time! And most of all... Thanks all for being there to celebrate for me!!!


Off to grandparents' house for the weekly gathering. And celebration after that. Cookie cream ice cream cake from Swensen!!

On 21st, meet up with MH, SH, Pui, Jenson and Nich for ice cream buffet at Ion Swensen. Another round of pranking from them =.=" Firstly, Puii sms me telling me that she can't make it for the outing because last minute have to go work. Didn't really believe when I realise she didn't inform Jenson! So I told MH and Jenson that if she turn out, she pay full price instead of 1/2 price! Then MH sms two sms to say that she will OT and unable to make it. But somehow, I also don't believe it. (Tio pranked too much the day before liao~)

Puii came and said she want to go to the ladies, and I wanted to go since I stepped into Swensen liao. So obviously I tagged along la. End up, they (Puii and SH) were just giving reason to get out and meet MH. Because MH IS AT THE ENTRANCE WITH BALLOON AND LILY to surprise me. She was 'borrowing' two male waiters from the manager to pass me the balloon and lily one at a time because she xian sheng. But because I tag along, the surprise was spoiled! @.@

Anyway, went back in to enjoy our ice cream buffet. End up Nich accompany me out to go to the toilet =.= Because I scare I lose my way while finding the toilet in Ion. MH tried to salvage the surprise by asking the staff for their in-house birthday special: BD FIREHOUSE! But... It was once again foiled because when the bill came, I took it to see how much I need to pay, and MH just let me took it, when she had tried to prevent me from taking. She sian diao when I nudged her and said that I already saw it. She didn't realise because she was backfacing me all along and keep urging me to take that S$10 when SH was the one buying the bill =.="Jenson left first while the rest of us when walk walk around Somerset. Went to take Neoprints at Cineleisure as well as tried to catch some toys at level 7.

Deardear wanted to meet me and countdown with me at my house. But I told him don't have to meet since he had to work morning shift the next day. So he wished me Happy Birthday on the phone instead.

22nd: Sms-ed in to radio100.3 to say it's my birthday! And the moment I step into the overheadbridge into NYP, they started singing birthday, DEDICATED TO ME! ^^ And they even mention that my name is beautiful ^^ As in the chinese character that is use to form my name~

My dearest MFGG leaders came down to NYP just to celebrate my birthday ^^ Thanks Fel for organising! A simple lunch... As I was having a full day training that day.
Back to training, but pretty slacking. Jessie ask for a break and I went back to my own FYP lab (which is just next door). Just as I was getting myself a drink, Jessie opened the door and start to sing 'Happy Birthday' song, with SP and Ms Gan behind her. Mei Hui was there as well! Cut the reminding cake that the girls bought and shared with Ms Gan, Ms Sze, Ms Tay and Jessie.


After school, when home for dinner with family and deardear. Went AMKhub to get my present as well as a cake. Deardear sponsor! Woots~ Deardear accompany me til 1230, when I was already fast asleep!

23rd: Met LeeMei for a mini celebration. Ailian was there as well when I met LeeMei. Ailian treated me to a drink before she left to meet her ex-colleagues while Lee Mei and I went over to 313 to have our dinner. Yummilicious!Peri Peri Squid

My Salmon

Lee Mei's Cod

Thanks everyone for the wonderful birthday I had this year ^^ The celebration, the gift, the surprises and the warm wishes!

Remininse on the good old time of OTians

Been reading OT thread when MH mention it in FB... Still readin, many more pages to go...

The good old times... The confides, the laughter, the matchmaking, the joy... The friendships that forged and the closeness of a family. What have remain, is just the memories of it.

How many of us were as close as we used to be?
How many of us still remember each other?

It's just three years, or rather, two and a half years to be exact. But things had changed. Too many things.


That was the place where I found friendships
That was the place I used to pour out my problems
That was the place where we goof around.
That was the place we gotten close.

That was the place, where we start to nickname each other, as a certain 'family member'


And because of the friendships from this thread, Da even say that I prove that online friendships can last.

Thanks OTians... for the memories we had together...

Birthday Wishlist?

In less than a month to go!!!! Birthday Birthday Birthday!!!! Woots~ Less than a month to be still parts of the 10s, before going to the 20s!!!

Anyway, was thinking of writing up a list... Something like a do's and don'ts for my birthday presents~ hee~ True that I'm ok with any presents, but then, would be much happier if it's something that is much more useful to me.

Don'ts:

1. I'm a jigsaw puzzle lover, however, I would much appreciate if it's given to me as a gift voucher rather than a box of jigsaw puzzle/solved jigsaw in a frame. I like to solve them myself, or with friends and family, but not the completed ones. Having to be soooo crazy over jigsaw puzzle last year had made me buy a lot of jigsaws. By giving me gift voucher would enable me to choose the designs that I yet to own, as well as the design that I love to own.
2. I like plush toys, however, I'm having too many plushies with me due to me going to arcade to play on the UFO catcher and similar machines. I'm rather choosy over the plushie that I own, especially with the appearance of the plush. Giving me plushies would most likely to result it being left to one side, or up at my blogshop ultimately to clear space @.@ Not that I don't appreciate it!

Do's:

1. Gift vouchers or similar will be appreciated. Be it for movies, crafting, makaning or shopping...
   Crafting gift vouchers can be of these places: Junior De Artist, Made With Love, Papermart
   Movie: Cathay or GV
2. Though I say gift vouchers are good, I would prefer it to be in cash. Not money faced!! Just being practical. Because I can used it with my saving to get my crafting stuff or those stuff on my wishlist.
3. Talking about wishlist, that will be the best best best gift ever. Hee~ BUT!! I know it's not really cheap, other than the last few. Would love it if anyone get those books for me!
4. Personalized or handmade stuffs are good as well. Just a simple HANDMADE card. Or a personalized accessory (eg. necklace or keychain or hp strap). Regarding HANDMADE card, I can be rather fussy though @.@
   
5. A makan treat would be good as well ^^
   
   

That's all for now I guess.

Oh~ By the way... I have membership card for Action City, Junior De Artist, Made With Love, Punkstar, Jigsaw Puzzle World *can't rmb e rest for now* If going to these places to get stuff, do let me know!

Formula Drift Singapore 2010

Went to Formula Drift Singapore 2010 with deardear and his colleague... Really glad that deardear bring me to watch it... TOTALLY ENJOY IT!!! ^^

Was really hot though... Lucky deardear bought the grandstand tix... so we're under e tent~ away from e sun~~ But still super stuffy n hot... sweatin like crazy aft e break time...

Too bad it didn't rain... e weather was really nice ard 12+ cuz it seem like it's gng to rain soon. Both of us were wishin that it would just rain somehow... not cuz for e coolness bt for e excitement of e drifting...

There were times where my jaw just drop! Cuz it's just sooooooooo jaw-droppin... Ok~ i haf totally no idea how to describe =.=" e speed of it, e accident tt happen, etc...

Oh... and there were times tt I predict which car will win... hehe... n it was right... wakaka... though i haf to say, i can't rmb hu is e driver n stuff... tell deardear which colour will win rather den which driver will win... hehe

Not e 1st time watchin drift though... Went wid deardear to watch driftin last year @ expo... But somehow, doesn't really feel e excitement... But this time round, woah~ e atmosphere is there... hard to not get excited... haha... Even for someone like me! who doesn't really bother about sports unless i'm participatin in it...

I wanna go again ^^

p.s. will upload pic once I uploaded dem into my com as well as wen deardear's colleague send him e pic...

FYP week 6

End of week 6 of FYP... And also week 1 of sch...

Been neglect this blog quite a lot @.@ too many blog liao... hee~ updatin on special stuff like winnin of tix n stuff only @.@ damn lazy to blog actually~.~

FYP 1st ppt 2day... as well as the student briefing tt was given by me!!! Ahhh~~~ Anyway, FYP no longer be for 6month as Richard Khaw let us go for YOG attachment for one month in July/August!! Though the pay is kinda little (8hrs for S$25 only!!!!), at least... I get to participate in YOG one way or another... Hee~ And also cut short my fyp!! Muahaha! Though exam will take place just barely a week later only. *glad I only have one examable module...*

Sometime I wonder, perhaps, having to retain another year is kinda like a blessing in disguise? Not that I want to retain for a year or anything, but come to think of it, if I have not been retain for a year, would I even get this chance? Would I even get to visit FHA again? And would I even get to work on this rare (to quote my supervisor) FYP topic, which is also a S$1000++ project? *though I prefer e S$1000 be given to me for working on this project*

FYP is still manageable for now. But tiring though. To be in school daily from 9am-5pm can be rather torturing in a way!!! But we have nice lecturers ^^

Loving my FYP for now... But I guess, the after effect will be that I'll be super sick and tired of ice cream? Imagine having 3month (or even more!) worth of icecream!! Almost every other day!!! But~ hehe... been enjoying myself cause I get to choose the brands and flavours... And guess my benchmark product? It's BEN&JERRY!!! Woots... Can't wait for the next session to dig into my B&J chocolate chip dough~ my favourite ^^ Need to find the Hagaan Dazs' Chocolate chip dough as well... Not available in AMKhub NTUC... Hopefully can find~~

Taking a break this weekend. Shall resume on Monday where lots of datas to be collated! imagine collating result from 90+ candidates... And follow by the screenin test *faint*

聊斋 Rocks ROCKS!

聊斋 Rocks ROCKS!!!! Thanks Lee Mei, Guang Yang and Annie for company ^^

*point to the song below*

After watching it yesterday. Kinda realise that the above song is the most hyper/happy song in the musical. Well~ can't forget that my favourite song of the musical even before I went to watch. Hehe...

Quite amuse by some of the stuff. Like how the blind man 'read' the work by the scholar just by sniffing. *laugh as I recall* And also the end there, the ultra super quick change!

*Two thumbs up*

Worth watchin!!! Ought to watch if you yet to catch it! Recommended!

*wish they will release an OST for this musical*
