HOHoho! Merry X'Mas!!! its approaching the end of a year and we are heading to a new year 2007!! I will be one year older!! Bohoho...

This year has been quite a smooth year except for some period of time when i was in financial difficulties. I took up the post of a principal which means the beginning of a new career, it was a new experience and i have learnt alot. With the support of my teachers and staffs, I hope to do a better job next year!!

I met up with my sec sch friends.. my confidante and buddies who walked with me.. they stood by me as we grew up. Now we are into another stage of life where we are either pursuing studies or working. But glad that we are all doing well and our friendship lasts...

(Left to Right) ZhiHong, Shixian, Yeechong, Vincent, Darren & me!

With the addition of Irene!

My buddies who have been with me since I was 16yrs old!! We slogged through poly days, survived our uni days, from babies inc till today- Degree Graduates!!! S0 proud of ourselves! Although we did not really score well for our studies but we scored high for our friendship! Cheers to you!!

We have been really busy with our won work and life but nevertheless we would make an effort to meet up and lame together! wahhaa!

To my buddies: Work harder for our own 'dream centre' buddies!!

Congratulations to my buddy's sis for the arrival of her baby girl- Yu Xi Zhen! The beginning of a new life, the beginning as parents! Hope she grows up happily and be strong like her mum and aunts!

Tat's all for today!! Take care and enjoy this holiday!!

I've been too lazy to update.

I am feeling empty inside me.. I feel so lost and bored. My life have been nothing except work, dinner with dear and sleep. Life has been monotonous for me....

At work, i am busy with concert stuffs; stressed with staff work attitude; leave clearance etc.. When will i get a break from these? I feel so pressurized.. Haiz...

When i woke up this morning, i felt so lousy... dun feel like doing anything at all.. just let me rot.. in the end, i took half day leave to sleep in longer...

I am tired of my life as this goes on.. its becoming meaningless... I am doing things for others.. never for myself..

Hope my life would be better as well as for my buddy*
*(Although we seldom keep in contact now, I'll always be here you dear gal. Just drop me a msg or ring whenever you need a listening ear. )

In life, not everything is within our control...

I wanan do something to my hair when my payday comes!!! Its in a complete mess as my life is!!

Went for a photo shoot with my buddies on Sat. I was freaking tired as i rushed there after work, the whole shoot took us 4 hrs!!! We met a super attitude family there and we were kind enough to let them interupt our shoot halfway as they said they need to rush off. But not even a smile from them, so damn pissed off.. should be insisted to let them wait cos we were there first.. so much for being kind.

Anyway we enjoyed ourselves during the shoot, making fun and laughing at each other.. how tired it was just to take a graduation shoot. Can you imagine what about a marriage shoot.. dunno how to survive.. think i better sleep for 3 days 2 nights before the shoot.. hehe!

Alright.. lets enjoy our self-taken photo:

me & my buddy(Melody)

Ruth & Sihui

the 4 kittens!! buddies forever!!!

After the shoot, we were too hungry and headed to one of our favourite restaurant- Ichiban Sushi!! Haha!! As teachers get together, what can be their discussion topic besides kids, parents and centre!

Pretty ladies..LOOK HERE!!

Well tat's all! Shall update again!! =)

Back from malacca trip!! I went with my company- ex-colleagues from bukit batok and my staffs. We enjoyed ourselves in this trip which has help to bond us closer. Let the pictures show and tell:

1ST DAY- At the Nonya Restaurant after check-in

In the SPA.. letting go of our stress..

Exhausted after a long day and time for dinner!!

We were too tired on our 3rd day as we went for our last minute shopping again before heading back to Singapore. Total damage = S$200+++

It was a fun trip and we have planned for our next outing- BBQ session on 23rd Sept 2006! Looking forward!

Happy belated bday to my dear! though we did not have a wonderful day with ppl who sucks but glad that we ended the day with sweet moments!

On sunday, we spent the whole afternoon washing dear's new KIA Cerato car! Got myself so wet!!

Today, I went to the Child Care Seminar 2006 'Strengthening Early Childhood Community' Some sessions were interesting but others were boring.. I left in the mid of the 2nd concurrent session with my Bt Batok Principal and went to collect my parchment. Afterwhich I returned to attend the last part of the session which was quoted as important by the licencing officer. I went shopping alone after the Seminar while waiting for dear to pick me up, he lost his way and actually spent $5 through the ERPs. Hahah!

Anyway we finally met up and went for dinner at the newly-renovated Newton Market! Yummy delicious food!

Dear's super attitude Angel which he claims to be cute..Urgh.. look at that face of hers! One word "Dao"!

my 3rd visit to the doc.. this time i am diagnosed with Bronchitis.. haiz.. i am stuck at home.. bored to death.. pls help!!!

sorry to my buddies for not being able to attend the talk and had to postponed the photo shot..

Who are you in your past life?

Your past life diagnosis:
I don't know how you feel about it, but you were female in your last earthly incarnation.You were born somewhere in the territory of modern Thailand around the year 700. Your profession was that of a monk (nun), bee-keeper or lone gunman.

Your brief psychological profile in your past life:Inquisitive, inventive, you liked to get to the very bottom of things and to rummage in books. Talent for drama, natural born actor.

The lesson that your last past life brought to your present incarnation:Your lesson is to learn discretion and moderation and then to teach others to do the same. Your life will be happier if you help those who lack reasoning.

sorry to all! i've been very busy since i started my new post as principal over at marine parade branch. 2 of my staffs has left due to health and family issues so i had to take over their position in the meantime as a cleaner and infant staff nurse. Imagine me sweeping, mopping the floor in the morning and helping out with the infant side in the afternoon.. been tired out totally! anyway i finally got a new cleaner and staff nurse, hope all will be fine!

some updates in my life, i've finally graduated!!! hurray!!!

Buddies power!

my aunts, uncle, cousin and my buddy!

some bad news though.. my hamster passed away le.. i was so upset and cried.. he had been with me for 2 yrs plus le.. he brought back lots of memories to me.. haiz..

anyway i just went for beehui's 21st birthday party yesterday.. just a meet up and sharing session.. after which i drop dead on the bed.. too exhausted..

feeling down and moody.. think i better catch some beauty sleep soon.. nite to all! shall update again!

Just came back from dear's house after the World Cup (Serbia and Montenegro vs. Netherlands) match. So tired now.. been catching the WC live matches these few days.. haha! soccer fever!! Too bad i dun have SCV so have to run around catching it live!

Feeling a little stressed now about going to work tomorrow as my principal has informed the unit heads about my promotion without notifying me! was upset initially as i wasn't prepared to let them know yet. Wanted to work peacefully for this coming Openhouse but feel that will be getting more stress this week as i feel higher expectations of me from them. Haiz...

Anyway, got to washup and chat with dear for awhile before i hit the sack and prepare for tomorow's "battle"! Nites!!

been down with flu and cough again after the Feng-Mo episode.. =( when will i be healthy again?

I've decided to take up the post despite of the long distance with encouragement and support from my friends, relatives, boss and principal. Thanks alot! I went through lots of consideration before i made up my mind.

I hesitated as i was afraid to step out of my current role and enter a new role. I was afraid i couldn't cope. With assurance from my boss and principal, they would give me their support which made me more relieved.

From next week onwards, i would be more busy coping with my BB(Bukit Batok) centre's Open-House, in-training for the principal position and MP(Marine Parade)'s Open-House too! I am getting excited and stressed as i would be "officially launch" as MP principal on 24 June. More things coming ahead of me.... Busy..Bbzzz

i've been offered a principal position at my centre's Marine Parade branch. I am not worried or stressed about the distance but the job itself. Should i take it up?

What a nice belated birthday gift from my boss.

stressed..considering...

Thanks to all for your birthday blessings!

Receive a few touching msg from a few of them whom we used to be very close friends but have pulled away due to different paths in life. I am happy that they could remember my birthday. our friendships started 9 years ago which have brought me lots of memories. Without them, I dunno how i could survived my sec sch days. They gave me the shoulder to cry on during sad times and were there with me to share laughter and joy. Thanks to all of you!

Life have indeed been different without you people but life still goes on as we get to know new people and direction in life. I miss those times and those were our days.

Thanks to my only dearest brother for that little surprise!

Dear brother, our family have been through lots of ups and downs and this is what our family are. We do not have a choice; we cant choose our family/ parents like i cant choose you either. We can only choose our future and the happiness we want. Although we have our usual conflicts, i love you all the same cause you are my only brother, my only closest kin in this world. We come from a conservative family and does not express ourselves well.
I love you and thanks for everything! =)

Happy Birthday to Me!
Happy Birthday to Me!
Happy Birthday to myself!
Happy Birthday to Me!

Happy 22nd Birthday to me!
How time flies, it seems that i just celebrated my 21st bday few months back and now I have turned 22! OMG.. I am getting old! hehee!

Thanks dear for celebrating this special moment with me!


And thanks to my buddies for their birthday wishes! Thanks alot! =)

I am suffering from Feng Mo, scientifically known as Urticaria. Having bad red patches and spots on my hands and legs. My fingers are red, swollen and painful and my feet soles are in pain.

They would clear away after taking taking each dose of medicine but my hands would appear red and itchy when in contact with water. I am feeling so terrible. Hope this goes away soon as it is making me veri frustrated with the itch and discomfort.

Why am i so unlucky to get all these illnesses? Why me? =( [even my hairstylist also asked: why my health so poor, always down with sickness.] Haiz.. hope i get well soon, cos it is killing me..

Anyway some positive updates-> I've got a new 6280 from my dear! yay! Although it is not a symbian phone but i am still loving it as i could download themes/games and play around with it unlike my old boring D500C.

I wish i could own a N80 or N71 but they are too ex, not within our budget. Loving this as my dear has the same phone as me! hehe! thanks dear! Tat's all, folks! i'll be stuck at home till my patches are cleared. what a 'fun' weekend to spend...

I enjoyed this weekend a lot! Thanks dear! On Friday night, we watched MI III with his sis. Tom Cruise looks soo charming despite of his age. Overall it is a nice show.

On Saturday, we went Suntec and had Mache for breakfast-cum-lunch-cum-dinner (our very 1st meal for the day!) we were so hungry and ate lots of food and the food was wasted as we visited the toilet after that. Hehe.. dunno its due to over hunger or stomach upset…

After that, we shopped around and spent $40 on these cute little phone accessories as we got them from those capsule station. It was a tough time collecting just this set and we were left with many other characters.

Then I found a watch that I loved which dear promised to buy for me.. here it is!! With my fav white, red and purple display!

After that we rushed home to watch the election results. It was my 1st time being so interested as I was only 18 yrs old during the last election and wasn’t interested in such politics issue.

On Sunday, we rot at home and watched Zathura. Then I went to perm my hair for the first time and looked like this!

My mum and bro said that it wasn’t nice.. I was a little upset but I felt it looks alright although I am not used to it. Maybe have to wait a longer time since the curls were still tight. Hope it looks nicer then!

We(Melody, Linxian, Sihui and myself) had Hi-tea at Swissotel Merchant Court hotel's Ellenborough Market Cafe to celebrate Sihui's birthday. It had a local-delicacy themed as we helped ourselves to the delicious food! It was quite affordable as we spent $20+ each- within our budget. haha! We spent around 2 hrs and left for our shopping!

I bought a Dorothy Perkins wristlet and Gio lycra tee! Loved them as it was a long time since i shopped.

We went PS, Orchard OG and walked down the street of Orchard. We wanted to look for a place and chill ouT. TCC and Coffee Club were full and we had to wait.. at last, we resorted to Starbucks beside California Fitness. Sat there and chatted for few hrs.. till 11+ den we decide to head home.

My buddy and I wanted to take cab back as we were tired and i was not feeling well due to 'auntie visit' On cab, we were on our way back then we changed plans and went Esplanade instead. Walked around, looking for pubs but we din like the atmosphere. Ended up at one of Clarke Quay pubs where we ordered beer and drank till it closed- 2.30am+

We had a long talk about ourselves, our career, our lives and such. It was a heart-to-heart talk which make me realise so much things which i've never ponder about. What do i really want? This has been a question which had donned on me all these years. It is such an easy question but a dumbfounded one as i was not able to come up with the answer. I don't really know what i want.. i was just flowing along with the stream...

Buddy, thanks for spending the night with me as the two of them must have hit the slack already. It was fate which brought us together and cherish this friendship, we might have lost touch for a long time but tat kinda friendship never fades no matter where we are. Thanks alot! loveya gals!

This was taken by the waiter but i still prefers the one taken by ourselves(below)! hehe! Artistic huh!?!

here i am *achhoO!* down with flu again- blocked nose & ears & sore throat. Haiz.. everyone been saying the same thing to me: "Why u so weak, always sick one?" well, do i have a choice when my children are down with running nose and i caught it from them.


been upset with my pc stuffs. 1st my monitor was down, now using friend's monitor. 2ndly, my cpu was down and i lost all my documents & images in my D drive. Lucky i have a backup copy of my research paper, if not, i would be breaking down in front of the pc right now.

I managed to transfer a girl to another class as she was stressing up ALL my new kids and parents.. she was literally fighting with me over a marker as if i was playing tug-of-war.

Will make up for it!! =P

I did not sleep well last night, was tossing around in bed. For the whole day, i've been feeling so uneasy and uptight. Guess i was a little traumatised over the incident. I remember how i scolded him in the public over what he had done, it just makes me feel so disgusted and seems to have lost a part of me. Although he had deleted the data, it was so deeply imprinted in my mind on how he went about taking it. I feel so insecure and 'ugly'.

Just wanna get over this episode of my life..

I had a bad encounter. A sicko guy was trying to take photos/videos of me while i was out shopping with dear. He was pretending to look at things and squat beside me when dear was away from me. He held his phone with his lens facing my skirt and kept following me according to dear. I decided to let things off and observe how things went. He did the same to another girl and i was so frustrated that i went to complain to the management.

He was escorted to the store room and questioned by the store manager. But i think he deleted the photos/videos while walking to the store room. Shit him! No evidence but i managed to find another video which he took of another girl going up the escalotor. Luckily the manager also caught him red-handed and saw him continue with his deed. Initially he admitted to doing it and he denied everything when his gf appear. What a Saint he was! Totally disgusted! Was actually soft heartened as he WAS apologetic but his atitude got so bad that i couldn't take it.

Reported to the police and they took down my statement till around 12am.. So shag but i am afraid and doesn't know what's going to happen. But the police said that i will be call to the police station again for investigation within these few days. Haiz.. Feeling so damn down and frustrated...

*So girls, pls be careful of those guys around u, you might be the next victim which u never know and be posted on the net*

Gone is my BLACK Casio Exilim Z500... Now I’ve got it in SILVER one instead as the black was FAULTY! After having to charge it for 8 hrs as instructed, the camera could not work and I went back for an exchange. There was no more black set, left with only the silver one. So here I am, with my SILVER Z500! The salesperson told me that the black surface might change color due to our sweat and handling. So I got to accept my silver Z500...

After much waiting and yearning for years, I finally got a digital camera of my very own! My wonderful Casio Exilim Z500!



Loves this stylish cool black feel and its lightweight. Although it has cost me a big bomb, I’ve freebies (tripod/cleaning kit/card reader & camera case) with free 512MB & 256MB SD card. Now I can take photos with ease and goodbye to my Samsung D500C 1.3MP camera! Haha!

Think I am sOoo in love with the number ‘5’ for both my Z500 & D500C! Cheerios!!

Phew! finally finish my practicum today! Congratulations to me! My lecturer was full of positive comments about my lesson and how i interacted with the children and staffs. Well done! *a pat for myself*

i was so tired rushing out the practicum folder and neglected my lesson plan. My head has been spinning for the past 2 days due to lack of rest and rushing for my night class. Finally can rest as today is my last session! Hurray! Tomorrow have a conference with my supervisor for my research paper. No more night classes till my next Master! Woah.. great expectations yah!

Now i am left with my research paper draft due on 27th Mar and Final paper on 17th Apr! Cant wait to finish it as i've loads of things to do! from methodology-> data collection-> data analysis->findings-> conclusions etc.

Good luck to me!! =) take care to my dear friends! so sorry that i've neglected you for these past 18 mths for my studies! i'll be free soon!!!

i've been feeling down since evening.. dunno's wrong.. suddenly feel so upset especially after clearing up my shelves of things.. memories flowed back about all the things i went thru.. my friendships and past relations...

i seem to have drawn away from my friends and buddies... makes me felt so heartless and upset.. those are people who have been there for during both sunny and rainy days.. where are they and where am i now? we seem to be at each extreme ends, losing all touch of each other.. is it because we have grown up and found new circles of friends or is it just me?

was reading thru blogs and 'stole' these from seowli's blog..

Delayed Happy Chinese New Year greetings to all!! may you be blessed with good health and happiness!!

i've enjoy this new year so far.. hope to receive more red packets!! <--see this, DO invite me to your house!! =P hehe!

good news for this new year.. my Nikki has given birth but still unsure of the number of births due to her impressive hiding skills.. she hide her babies so well that i cant see anything.. could not really see but could only peep as they say not to stress the mum too much else she might eat her babies.. will have to wait for about a week or more... will update about Nikki & babies soon!
