bloody start to the week

The title speaks for itself. I don't wish to elaorate further to save you from ultimate disgust.

However, it connotes my morning. Was supposed to finish the competitive analysis for this month already since it's the last day of Jan. (I feel that I am mentioning "competitive analysis" for every past few entries? I hate them!) And NO freakin' soul told me that files placed in the server under "Public" folder will be thrashed weekly. And so Yours truly, happy with her report saved them (I'm a Ctrl-S freak!! ask cut6!!) on the server. This morning, when I opened it, it was "Good Morning. Your files are lost. Have a good time re-analysing them." I was speechless. Utter disgust. The thoughts of typing them was orh-kay. But the hardest part is analysing them!!! After silently cursing and swearing, I had no choice but to re-do them. So demoralising.

It was time to be the receptionist. Upon reaching the desk, I complaint to i and she mentioned that I could call the IT manager to rectify it and revive my folder. Upon hearing that, wah! I was over the moon (!).

Before I went up to be the receptionist, I went in to see my supervisor, t. He was away for the past week in Hong Kong. Only came back today. So I went in, introduced myself and all. Boy, he's sooooooo young! Unlike the other ADs! Hee hee! He just electrified me earlier on when we met along corridor, without knowledge of each other. I did not even dare to look into him. Haha. He has cute smile. I feel like a bitchy biatch. Tsk tsk! We talked and he asked me questions which I could not handle well despite king rajan's guidance. I feel like I have shamed the cohort. Questions like, "What do you know about us?" I blew it off by saying "It's very fast-paced (DUH!) but I suppose it's like that in the ad industry (DOUBLE DUH!!) and people here are nice, very helpful." Period. He gave me a shocked face saying, "That's it? Only 2 things?" and I returned a sheepish smile, like fy. Gosh, I cannot take it already. Everytime he walks by or coming towards my direction, I'd either dodge or just pretend to look intently into my work. What a pretender!! st gave silly ideas about passing notes under table asking him out for date.One word: SIAO!!!

---

Saturday was shopping with j, j and e at OneUtama. Mall was so huge, tried on many tops but (in m's words) nothing to show off, poor thing! Yah, poor thing! Which was why I told you, "hope you get a job fast then come here and shop with me! Dude!! And eu dear called from uk. I thought it was just a normal "hie,how have you been. etc etc" call but when she broke down, I was freaked out! Goodness, never hear her breaking apart like that before. Eu, I know it's hard for you but you have to learn to cope with it. You're alone there, we're so far apart. All I can give is just emotional support via the www. I cannot be there physically so hang on and I strongly believe that you are able to get a grip when you've decided to move on and thrash things out with the jerk, the mustard!!! I have to watch my language as I don't wish to indulge in vulgarity. Sunday was boring. Server was down in hostel and all I could do was to watch the Singapore drama, "The Champions" on VCD.

Oooh! t is in the vicinity!! *Feels heart* Thump. Thump. Thump. Hahahaha just kidding! i feel like there's quite a feast for my eyes in office and outside office. mummy's boy, k and t. k is not back from meeting with client yet. Ahhh the same troublesome client that I am working on for the competitive analysis report. Called the IT manager and he said I have to wait till the end of the day before he can put them back. It's about 2 hrs 30 mins before office hour ends. What do I do in the meantime? Do I proceed with the filing or pop by t's office and ask for work or continue surfing the www.? Last option could mean a drop in my internship grade. *shakes head* Tell me, tell me.

Finally, it's here!

Friday is finally here! Yay! What a week it has been. Did not update for the past two days because I had no time to sit down and cyrstallise my thoughts and to log in. Haha, I sound busy, yeah? Anyway, I was compiling the entire pile of competitive analysis report for the client for January '05. And it's still running. I mean, it's still January, know. A brief report on yesterday. When it was about 5+ the colleague, a came to me and reprimanded me for not cutting the articles that she asked for. Sheesh! That is YOUR job, you're simply using me to do it. You lazy pig! I was so so so pissed, alright! Stupid malay who's always wearing short skirts yet not comfy with them and keeps pulling them. BAHHHHHHH!!! I was damn pissed that i went home 10 minutes earlier than usual.

Ok, in papers, my working hours are 9am-5.30. But I stay back everyday, till 7pm to finish my work of the day. Hardworking intern, yah? :P Actually, it's because I dread going back to the hostel though I have a roommate. It's just not the same! I realized that I missed the lil' kiasu island so so much, alright! I miss the accessbility and the public transport and school and lecturers and fc6 and everything! :```((

I really felt like crying yesterday after a repeatedly said "You remember what I told you or not? Hah? You remember? Remember or not?" and her voice was the most irritating arsshole on the planet!! ok, i swallowed my tears and the ex-housemate's words hit me: "If you encounter any problems, remember you're in your OWN country." Ok, I felt better then.

---
Today's bus ride to office was better than yesterday's. Yesterday, I was nearly squeezed to pieces (literally ,ok!) by the shuttle bus door. It was THAT packed alright! I was the last to be able to get on bus. Luckily, a Chinese lady pulled me in. Else, I need not bother about any diet plans no more! Difference between Singapore buses and Malaysian(ie KL) buses: 1-KL buses hire conductors. *bewildered* Who in this freakin' age use a bus conductor?! Isn't it easier to tap like in S'pore? 2-KL buses stop either before or after the stops; never AT the stop. 3-KL buses are small!!

I realized something. My office block has no 4th floor. I wondered was it because of the meaning it connotes. Like Westerners to 13th. I was amazed that people here are just as superstitious. I smiled at the amusement all the way into office and the mummy's boy, k went, "Hey! Good Morning!" That made my morning. Yupp. There ain't any looker in the office, so if I have to amuse myself and keep myself entertained, then k is the looker. and after his friendly greeting, I decided to ask him whether he knows where to turn on the lights for my side. Ok, that's lame. But hey! I seriously do not know where to, alright!

And today, I was kept busy with the research work for the pitch and the survey at the mall. n came and said the report was great. Thank You! Considering it was a pile of nonsense i Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V from the www. -_-

I'm so glad today is the end of week 1. I feel as if I have been here for a month long already! Gosh, how can I ever stay in a company for more than a year when I hit the working world next time? I am seriously doubting myself.

Oh I forgot to mention that lunch yesterday was gossip session between m and f. Tsk Tsk. f is such a biatch! And one more thing, the office Internet access sucks at times.

lost

Ok, so the job at the recept was not that entirely bad. I used the time to read every single piece of news article in the paper! Hooray! I gain knowledge that way, huh! -_- DUH! Luckily it was only for a good one hour. If it was longer, I would have jumped down from the building and died a horrible death as there's construction going on down there.

There were a couple of interns before me and it stresses me out to know that they might have done a not-too-bad job. Am i not doing good enough? Beats me!

Anyway while I was compiling and analysing the client's (shan't mention their name again, but it was said in one of my previous post) competitive analysis report yesterday, I felt bored. Brain dead. Analysing target audience and message is not chicken feed anymore, I realized. Plus, this is for a REAL CLIENT. not for some project submissions in school that I can "crap" through. (gosh, if ping and other lecturers read this, they'd probably flip!) Alrightie, as I was saying I was doing the report, I felt brain dead and a lil' bored. I wanted a puff. luckily I told pw (yes, we are on msn every single day.so shoot us!) and she gently reminded me not to return to sg a smoker and fy definitely doesn't like that. Ok, that killed my thought. again, *shouts* THANKS PW! such a friend, if it had not been for her, I'd probably asked my cubicle mate for a stick. tsk tsk. A lil' disappointed in myself. But proud at the same time as I managed to NOT succumb to temptation. It's such a temptation when EVERYONE in the department smokes! And I mean everyone Gosh! Is it that stressful in the ad industry? I guess so, seeing m coming in everyday not looking happy; m is my cubicle mate.

The office is quiet today. I think the telco (one of our clients) team has a presentation. Sigh, everyone is quietly at their cubicle, typing away. Anyway, the telco account is so damn fast-paced I feel blur when I see them rushing like maddies. It's indeed, "Welcome to the Mad House" as l (the account director in charge of the telco account) greeted me on tuesday.

Anyway I am so free now because I have finished the competitive analysis report. YAY! And I am waiting for THE time to go up, sit down and say "Good Afternoon. (company's name)" repeatedly. For an hour. how fatabulous can an intern's job scope be? Tell me.

pretty much dead

i am motivation-less and restless i am not even trying to look or act busy. i am not even approaching my colleagues to help them with their work. why? because in 30 minutes' time, i will be a receptionist (??!!!?) got the news from person-in-charge that i am to relieve the receptionist upstairs from 12-1 every fishing day!! i tried not to show my disappointment and my piss-ness (if there's such a word). but receptionist??? i feel like crying.

the telco (shan't reveal the name in case it can be google-ed) account director just said, "Hello, Siang Ying. You feel under utilised, isn't it?" and my reply was "Oh hie. You have anything for me to do? Under utilised? No lah, not really." but deep inside, i feel like crying!!!

and so i went up to ask the person-in-charge on why am i being posted to be a recept. answer given is "oh you'll gain experience and get to know everyone in the company. it's for your experience la~~" gee, thank you!! -_-

my leave for 7th is approved. the school has yet to give me a reply and so i decided to ask the person-in-charge (m; it's quite long to type "person-in-charge") and she said yes, it's approved and she will just put me in for the day. and ping, if you're reading this, do me a favour and just keep this to youself. thank you.

Pa.na***** i.de.as. f.or l.if.e

first day at work: i was assigned to a certain strategic planning director but unfortunately, he was off in Hong Kong for some training and so i was under his assistant. my first task is to do competitive analysis of P.an.a***** and i was stucked with it till about 3.30p.m. colleagues are nice, generally. they are seated in a cubicle that fits two. they hardly use email, unless it's for people upstairs. yeah, upstairs. there are two floors. 8th floor houses the account management and strategic planning people. media, creative, traffic, studio bla bla, not forgetting the big shots are on the upper floor. there are a couple of "cool" people aruond here. ok, they are quite cool, all of them.

sighz, i don't like the hostel. but oh well, it's just the beginning so i shan't complain. when i have adjusted fine to it, it's time i leave the place. hah!! i sort of miss the lil' kiasu island. miss sms-ing the friends, miss catching up with them after work (if they do), miss taking the buses and trains. i don't know how the public transportation in kl work yet. took a cab to office this morning.

ok, meano's right. most advertising people smoke. out of five that i know, 4 smoke. i had a shock when my colleague asked me this morning, "Do you smoke?" i went point blank and stared at her and went like "Huh? Who? Me?" that was about 9+ in the morning!!

apparently those working for the C.el*** account are very very stressed out. one of them smokes early in the morning. just about when work starts. almost everytime i run up, i see her smoking. stressed hah! and my cubicle-mate (yuks! what kinda name is that?! hahaha) just fished out her second ciggie in 2 hours? ok, that's quite normal already, i suppose.

and i think i smell of ciggies. which i absolutely detest to the core.

blaze of glory

i was not sure what happened for the past two days. i cried alot. tears rolled down when i listened to "That's What Friends Are For" by Taufik & co. that was round 1.

i cried again in DMS yesterday when i played the cd fy gave me. the first song was "That's What Friends Are For", the original version. all songs in the CD share a common theme: friends. my tears uncontrollably rolled down. after NCT, the drama began. started with wq then me.

i thought of just leaving after the test, saying a quick "bye" but was held up by the IPRS thingie. i hugged all of them and i meant ALL. even nuurul and cheryl and norman! :)

gifts i got from rad and val: rad promised to send me taufik's autograph and photo. hee hee! yah, i guess this makes up for missing his first thank you party in SP Convention Centre. i actually got the passes! but had to give it a miss. cannot imagine how heartbroken i was. but anyway, gotta thank martian beforehand coz she agreed to go in my place and get his auto on my cd and calendar and the card. hahah! so, thanks wq!! and val, she promised to take pictures of taufik for me. awww so sweet, both of them! val's interviewing him for LIME, she said. val and rad, these 2 combo has nothing to offer but laughter. stay around them for a minute or two, you end up exercising your laughters. :D peace, bro!

thinking sometimes, i really regret getting an internship placement in KL. missing so many things and having to see to LOTS of things: before, during and after internship. one word- SIAN!

the memories, good and bad left behind are irreplaceable. no words can describe them. some of them like: (in Mandarin) fy's "what? who? what? who? what? who? what? who? (for a long time)"....."don't gossip!!" cut6 should know what i mean! and to my frantic "GHOSTS!" at the corridor while bumping into a lecturer. pw, STOP imitating me! and yh's "ooOOohhh" and lq's "no butt" tongue twister. of course, not forgetting dear ol' jess' sleeping wherever she goes.

how can these be erased from my memory? i'll definitely carry them with me. before i left, the cut6 cheater bug who cheats cut6 members of sixty cents (sounds like some tongue twister!!) gave me a present on the gang's behalf. a photo frame with montages of our good and bad times! actually more like MY good and bad. even on the day when i had rashes.

when i reached the aptmt, the housemate greeted me. i sobbed like a maddie. then it was mad packing, mad loading, mad unloading, mad journey home, sleep.

today it was mad unpacking, mad packing, mad ironing till now. -_-

notice that i don't bother using acronyms or silly names like moanie any longer. reason being ping (known as pong previously) has found her way to my blog. cheh! so much for wanting to give her my add as a going-away pressie. no kick!

seriously, i don't know what i will do without these bunch of mates. so here's to Minah Kwan, Meano Lee, Ma Nee Princess Chew, Comatose Yong, Meanest aka CutSix Cheater Bug Poh!!! You guys are the real gems.


remember, DON'T GOSSIP!

blogger hates me!

blogger hates me! there's problem with editing the template and everytime i am almost finishing, it crashes down on me. damn blogger!!!!!i will deal with you later! rushing to meet m at mrt now. darn!!!

actually, basically

earlier of the day: thought i would not feel anything before leaving. but no, the lil' voice in me spoke. it yelled, it wanted to cry outloud. i was holding back my tears in tutorial today after seeing my classmates. somehow, though we were not one of a united class, it was very jovial-on-the-surface for the past three years. hoped they feel the same. ;)

i dread thursday. one, i have a nct test to study for which i haven't touch at all! and i am going shopping with m & m later. great, isn't it? two, thursday will be the last day that i will be here. after the test, it's immediately back to the apartment, pack things up, load into car boot and bye bye singapore! for three months! gawd!!

in lecture: basically ,actually we were sitting through pong's last lecture and some of our coursemate's presentation. the first on how violent vid games influence behaviour, bla bla. second, it was on DTV. goodness, felt that my life revolves round DTV this entire semester!! then, actually, basically, the last presentation was actually about basically just music piracy lor. basically nothing much, actually the speaker was talking about how actually music piracy hurts the music industry and bla bla.

i was really irritated to the core, ok! the actually-s and basically-s got on my nerves so much i wanted very much to slap her shut!!! obviously, the class haven't been to class with king! .ra.j.an! he was right. he's always right, i feel.

the irony? i might be one of those irritating presenter out there if it had not been for the king! He's truly the best. cheerios!! going to miss him loads!! but i think i shall hound him with my email once in a while. :P

oblivion day

it's always the case when i go over to a.sp's house. stay up till wee hours, sleep till sun shines into the room, have brunch during lunch hours (?!) and i did not even realize that it's already 2 pm now! "as usual", m will say. :P

last week of school and i am feeling restless. don't feel like studying for the NCT test, don't feel like doing up my portfolio for PP. if it's not 'coz of the KL internship, i'd have dragged the PP assignment till last minute. hmmph!

KL has such happening nightlife there. even the paranoid lecturer knows about it. okay, she may only know of Zouk but considering what a paranoia she is, it's good 'nuff. a.sp just told me that ther's this place in KL: Budaba, which has 3 storeys. ground floor: a club, 2nd: lounge and 3rd: coffee place; targeted at young execs. quite happening, i hear. when it was opened, even singaporeans flock down to the place. cool, eh! perhaps i can ask ma.rcu.s and he can check out the chicks there!!

--
upon reaching a.sp's office, she opened a cupboard and pulled out a dark blue crabtree & evelyn bag and plonked it in front of me. there was a pink C & E box and it smelled like rosemary. i was right indeed. there's a talcum powder, hand and body lotion, shower gel and soaps. nice, and sweet. i was expecting the lavender series but i guess it's a change. been lavender-ing too much.

--
the code for this host is killing me. darn, i should have paid more attention when i had HTML lessons last time. think was about 5 years ago. hah! don't even know how i passed the test, man!

--
sorta regretted not going to BB for the taufik's performance. heard that there was not a huge crowd but taufik's fans thronged there, as usual. saw from the pics that he was wearing some geeky glasses! hee hee! how cute!! i'm still soooooo into him. sighz!

**
psst... i forgot to mention i met t.im.ot.hy g.oh of C.NA's at nydc with zhiggy and fa.b on friday evening. he looked so familiar to me till zhiggy asked us if we watch cn.a in the morning. then it dawned to me that it's mister g.oh. with his buncho. i did not recognize anyone else. anyway, mister g.oh looks coughseffecoughsminate. i have to say it inconspicuously in case i am in for slander.

Blessings

yesterday was the first time i ever did such a thing. and indeed, it was blessings from Taufik, da soul man himself! while many were shouting for him (I did NOT shout for him coz i felt that it'd be pointless- he cannot hear me either!), i waved my index finger at him with my other fingers groping on my camera, dear Taufik took my hand and held it for 2 good seconds; before he went off. *beams* i have not washed my hands since. HAH! kiddin'!! how can i not wash my hands? DUH! i could not take clear pictures of him because of 2 good reasons: i was blocked by this huge, rowdy malay girl in uniform. (i shan't disclose the name of the school) and two, people were pushing me and all the pushing made me so crushed and I did not turn off the flash in my camera. so i had the flash on all the time and all pictos that were taken were dark. i feel like a stoopid idiot. damn!

but i was happy enough that he held my hands. hahaah! really an experience chasing my idol, man! and thank you, m & m. moanie (had to use another pseudonym because i fear that the name can be googled. considering how sly pong! can be on the www. ) had to go off 30 minutes earlier. she thought the chase started at 3. :/ then mynah (another pseudonym of a pseudonym!! confusing?) accompanied me to the chase. goodness, it was madness and luckily no stampede, no one fainted. i read somewhere that in carrefour, suntec city, a girl fainted, another got stamped! hahaha! ooops! that was mean! :P

my gawd... i cannot believe how lucky am i to be able to touch him. *drools* by the way, as most of you would have known, dear Taufik's album was out yesterday- Blessings. it IS fan-ta-bu-lous, ok!

after ooh-ing and aah-ing, mynah had to go off. i went to kino to wait for the movie at 7.30 with the dudes. the dudes, as usual were LATE! told them 7.15 SHARP and latecomers had to treat dinner. fa.b was late by 10mins. zhiggy was late by 25 mins! darn! luckily, the movie just started when we went in. "Meet The Fockers" was hilarious! it's a must-watch if you want comedy. thumbs up! i laughed till i teared. there was no way that you will fall asleep in the movie, unlike some of my mates in 2046. :P it's even funnier than the first one! hahaha! after movie, it was to nydc. the fellas wanted to spend some money. i just had mudpie which was muddy- melted already! damn!

**
while i was doing the routine cleanup today, it suddenly strucked me that i forgot to go down to the dept of industry service to sign some letter of undertaking. whatever rubbish thing is that! i was told to go down during the pre-itp briefing. made a point to go with lucy but in the end, forgot! i have to go on monday. thanks, lucy! you're the best, no doubt! all cut6 members are the best!!!

**
after much discussion and planning, we finally went threading yesterday. hahaha! the most funny thing that came out of it was mynah's eyebrows are crooked!! hahahah even after threading!! lol. ok, i am not supposed to be mean but then i simply cannot help it the moment she stood up from the chair and i looked at her eyebrow. voila! i spotted the mistake! hee hee!! :P

**
downed too many slices of mango that it makes me feel sick inside. blurgh! and oh, zhiggy updated me with insider stuffs about Taufik. apparently everytime they have a meeting or some sort, everyone gets a copy of the minutes. haa haa! he's my best bro!!

Friday, January 14, 2005

last few days

wed: M & M & I went to Giant (it's HUGE!) to buy food for the class bbq. we bought alot of things, which we thought we cannot finish. apparently, we've bought too much. anywayz, we were so very malu because we got val's addie wrongly and went to the wrong unit!! *gasps* luckily no one was at the wrong unit.

**
yesterday was the bbq. goodness, we were as maddie as possible and just play like nobody's business. really enjoyed the night and... and... i cannot concerntrate coz i am listening to Taufik's interview over the radio!! :P

anywayz, we had lotsa fun. that's that la. and we're going threading later! and going idol-chasing, too! thanks again, pals! you trio know who you are!

**
food for thought: 1) how far will you go for your bf/ husband-to-be (at least you think he is)? are you willing to convert to his religion if he's not of your own? are you willing to travel to undeveloped countries if he's posted there? are you willing to endure all the hardship?

2) will you consider a guy younger than you? this is posted by ma nee again yesterday, on the bus.

3) will you consider a guy who is less qualified than you? (ie education qualification)

*ponders* *wonders*

Wednesday, January 12, 2005

will you?

will you date a guy younger than you? do you mind? moanie and i were talking over lunch. we drifted to this topic. i feel, younger guys give me no sense of security. i don't know many younger ones. i guess it's only the jc 1to1 buncho. lz.c, he's very quiet and keeps to himself but then he's a deep thinker. scary!! fa.b.ia.n, sil' dude who's so cheesy. i guess when he's unleased, all his emotions and hormones run wild. be.rn.ard. is a very idealistic MCP! the rest? cannot really recall, thanks to amnesia. all 3 above-mentioned younger males are to me, senseless in their wacko ways. i am, too.

on the train last week, i overheard the conversation of 2 girls. one said: "I prefer older guys 'coz i don't think the younger ones can stand me." the friend replied, "I like older ones. i cannot stand younger guys. they're somehow a lil' too immature."

i think it has to be perceptions formed for the whole lot when you know only a handful. but moanie said she won't even consider a guy of her age. and one thing she said that i thought was hilarious: "I like older guys, but not those who can be your father!!" LOL!! we were referring to a particular friend, as usual.

**
whilst they are busy preparing their powerpoint for tomorrow's presentation, here i am, unleashing my thoughts, my ramblings! ;P

taufik's having some kinda concert in BB this saturday at 2p.m. which makes me itch. i've made plans with aunt sp this weekend and i reckon it's going to be chilling out after a long time. plus, she was so "onz" when i sms-ed her. if i were to go BB this sat, i'd be spending the entire day there. which cuts down my time with her and doing stuffs like learning more about photoshop tricks and doing up my portfolio. sighz! i guess you cannot have all the nice things in life and you cannot calculate time too precisely!!

***
"When one door closes, another door opens." BUT that is not always the case. You'll never know what a window can bring you.

finally!!

finally managed to link taufik's website!! haaha considering how un-html savvy i am. whee! but there's lotsa editing to be done.

finally got over the interview. Whew! no sweat yah! :P hope i will do well. i'm left with only one week here. gotta complete so many things. course video, cut6 video, go threading, go visit tiger beer plant, shopping (!), class bbq, yada yada yada yada.

going idol-chasing with m and m on fri. hehehe thank god they don't mind accompanying me. else, i think i will have to either go alone or don't go at all. which i think i will take the second option. i don't know, i still cannot operate independently. how? i need some kinda motivation to push me so that i can work independently!! perhaps taufik's not motivational 'nuff? nah, it's not him. it's just me!

anywayz, meeting lzc and maybe fabs (?) for movie on friday. hope fabs can come la. else, i won't get to see that dude till god-knows-when-is-the-next-time!!! perhaps catch meeet da fork3rz since i am in mood for it and lzc wants some comedy. don't know, let him decide.

feeling restless and sleepy and tired and burnt!! i think it's just the towards-the-end-of-the-term thingie. again (!).

going back to more research on AI and Robotics! :\

so many things to do yet so lil' time

on the train yesterday, i overheard a mother telling her naughty kiddos: "ah ne ne will catch children that don't sit down." how racist is that? i cannot imagine a mother will educate her children like that. what if next time, the children go up to that certain race and spout some nonsense? wouldn't that be impolite. it will imply that the children lack parental guidance. what will become of the future? tsk tsk

**
thanks, MUM! *shouts* I LOVE YOU! mummy remembered what i said about say, 6 months ago and she bought me XYXY. hahah i am so touched! she's afterall my best marm. :)

**
cut6 setup a blog. didn't know they are so onz about it. glad that we've come this far. 3 years, almost; is not an easy feat. squabbles, conflicts, stress, etc etc etc. sighz! all will be over in 2 weeks' time. i'm quite sad, actually. having to leave them. but then again, it's part and parcel of life.

**
forgot about the blog challenge by p0ng. spent the spare weekend time d/loading t@uf*k's videos and stuffs. too much time spent on him and meeting up friends. met k, j, k. quite an achievement for me already la!

**
i have to dip up my HTML lesson file and notes to make my blog more orderly. main purpose is so that i am able to link to one of t@uf*k's site. :P

**
realized that i am only left with ONE weekend here. want to do so many things, spend time with friends. but then, i am chasing against time. :(

**
grandpapa going for operation either today or tomorrow. i pray that you will get well soon and have a strong will to live on. amen.

meet-up(s)......

met up with j today, had a long nice chat with her. very intensive one, for the matter. it's been a long long time since we last met each other.

her bf, a met t@uf*k(!!) at NYE countdown @ sentosa. a met t@uf*i in a carpark, while he was leaving only with a bodyguard. wahh! no one around 'cept bodyguard! a didn't even bother to catch t@uf*k's attention or something. cheh!

apparently j has met her match. j was known to be our walking dictionary. but she has met her mr-know-it-all, a. from j's description, he's such an intelligent genius.

may they be together for as long as eternity. but it's hard; they're of different religion. awww...

yep!

yesh, manage to get a new pad for my blog. on average, a blog's lifetime is bout 9 months, or so i heard. within that time period, i've changed blog almost twice. diaryland proved to me to be quite-sucky. pardon me, diaryland users. :P

was on the phone with j just now. finally admitted her r/ship with a hah! hmmph! at least she kept to the promise of telling me herself. ok, she's forgiven! :P

gotta find a place to meet up with her later. and i am yet to hit bed. i am tired. only slept about 3 hours yesterday. :(

if these go on, i will lose all my hair pretty soon. btw, permed my hair! hahah finally got down to it. alas! :)

i'm feeling a little quirky right now...
