im graduating twice for yr 2004. haha.. yupz.. tmr is the 2nd one. i dun feel damn excited for it.. just a little unsure how my days will be like in future and sad cos we will be separated. hopefully everything goes well tmr! i invited ren to go.. and as usual, mummy cant be bothered by it. expected.

just now, i attended a party by siasu. din wanna go initially but bcos the organisers came all the way to our class to invite us and so did ms foo, i dun think it will be a nice to turn pple's offer down like tt loh.. and i believe it will be a good opportunity for us to noe the pple there who are most prob our future superiors. gotta build the rapport first... :)

thanks HY, i just received ur xmas card! i was wondering who sent me a card cos the handwriting was not recognisable. aiyah.. for a moment i tot its some admirer of mine leh.. hehe.

its sad watching the news. 6 mths ago i was happily having my vacation at potong beach in phuket and having our cruise ride to phi phi islands... now, debris are everywhere and people are grief-stricken. its no longer tt sunny beach tt i once knew.

sri lanka and india is worse i think. corpses everywhere.

life can be this fragile....

hmm.. can anyone out there just stop all mishaps?

maybe this is a punishment for humans who kept polluting and harming the wonderful earth tt was created for us.

i understand why she always likes to comment on pple's undies now. yupz, it happened again today when we were rehearsing for our grad performance. from what she have said.. i guess, she thinks tt the whole world must be like her who wears those low cut kind of undies or maybe even her fav G string. *feeling a little gross.. * when can she stop being so childish?

today is the first day of xmas *if im not wrong* and it just reminds me of what BC have addressed us abt 6 yrs ago when i first stepped into SAJC. it was still xmas then.. the last few days of it. she wished us merry xmas and for a moment we were quite shocked. "arent xmas 25 dec? " tts what i tot... it was only then tt i realised xmas lasts for 12 days. im so dumb rite? haha..

last night i had a very sumptous dinner at stacey's place. she a wonderful cook who made us very yummy traditional xmas dinner! my very first time leh.. feels very homely eating dinner tgt with 8 other frens with the xmas music played in the background. we toked, crapped and of cos ate ate ate. there r simply too much food! exchanged gifts with one another and im v glad tt this yr i had more xmas gifts than any other yrs. JJ gave me socks, joy had chocolates and card for me, bryce and colynn gave me a pink shawl, stacey gave me a v cute hp holder and a bottle of rm fragrance - oceanus * i love tt scent!*. thanks guys... and im still waiting for J to pass me my pressie!! hmm.. when r u giving me, dear?? haha.. im getting impatient! haha..

i like to have dinners with close frens and loved ones. i like the idea of pple crowding near the fireplace, sharing jokes and their stories. i like the idea of having big socks hung near the fireplace and loved ones will put pressies in them. opening up pressies tgt the next morning can be quite fun too! and also playing in the snow... oh, im dreaming again. heh.

spent the night at her place cos this morning we have dance prac at her house. as usual, the dancers are late late late again. easily distracted during the prac.. by calls, food and chatting. sigh, i always felt tt time can be better spent and we do not need so many prac afterall. i went shopping with mr ampk after tt. mango sales is simply too tempting, so i went in again. got myself a top when actually im looking for jeans. haha.. i was walking ard in town with just shorts t shirt and slippers.. i dunno if tt is inappropriate, but its just soo comfortable. who cares rite? instead, ampk is quite well dressed today, so unlike him. and hes into the "holy shit" slang instead of his usual F word. hahaha... tts something different today. we went carrefour to do something. something to be done in the dark. took serveral different cans of B***, hid at a corner and took their pics. we were trying hard to keep a low profile so tt no one will throw us out of the store. wanted to put the cans back.. but its quite silly to do so since the promoters already saw us picking them up from the shelves. its quite exciting. hehe...

zeff i become so numb, i can't feel you there. says:
u ain't keeping a low profile
mary christmas says:
issit?
mary christmas says:
haha
mary christmas says:
trying hard to
mary christmas says:
haha
zeff i become so numb, i can't feel you there. says:
u're scurrying ard looking for snack!

messy meal time! Posted by Hello

~me~ at 2:59 PM

a peaceful xmas, quietly spent with a few jc frens of mine. yah, its our usual xmas meeting every yr. this yr we had less members, either they were bz or they r away at some faraway land.

i met them at orchard b4 heading to marina to get our dinner at kenny rogers. yah, its ribs and chicken again.. this kinda food is making me rather sick. hmm.. how i wish there can be some homemade pasta and homemade omelette with loads of cheeze n mushrooms infront of me. anyway, after the dinner we walked around suntec to digest our food, an excuse to go shopping at the mango sales but we din manage to find anything nice there. hungry mary wasnt very full after dinner so she bought herself a green tea ice cream from gelato. *yuckky* better not try tt flavour, it sucks. headed ntu hall again and we spent the night watching white chicks and naruto. haha.. LY best loh, she managed to watched all thru the night when the rest of us just concuss on the beds. we called ZH too.. he was on his way to spain, lucky him!

before i forgot, i got my tooth out le. the process was scary but it wasnt pain at all! *im a brave little girl! heh.. * when my gums are still bloody, i also got my hair trimmed at kimage which is very near to the dental clinic. my hair is very thin now. i wonder how my hair can go up like tt... haha... i dun care tt much le.

last but not least, thanks to those who have given me little gifts. merry xmas to all and may our dreams come true for the new coming year!!

just finished one cup of instant noodles! cant resist the hunger even though its so late cos i only had one meal for the entire day. reached home at 6 plus this morning and after washing up, i jumped into my bed and slept for the next 12 hrs. i noe.. im super piggy! haha.. feels so great when u have no shedule to follow and u just do watever u feel like doing.

guess this is the best trip i have been so far.. cos colleagues were much better *though there were a few blacksheep* and i did most of the work on my own. met san and did shopping are the other reasons. hee. i love the 2 roxy bags tt i have gotten over there. luckily i made the decision to get both of them instead of 1 or else i will be regetting now. hahha~

during my trip back home, a "not so mild" turbulence was experienced. was giving out the trays when suddenly the whole a/c dropped. i fell and sat down on my knees, with the tray still in my hands. luckily i din hit the cart bcos the pax beside me held on to me when i fell. im v grateful to her! she looks like a thai or an indonesian to me. i wondered.. if same thing were to happen and im the pax, wat will i do? my heart was pumping real hard when i got up.. its a terrifying experience lehz.

it was very exhausting for not having any rest for the entire night. giddiness and the feeling of puking was experienced when we are almost back home. so i took a biscuit before i think i might faint. hmm.. this job is not so easy as what others may think. its vvvv challenging *esp with the crew*, hazardous to health and safety. like wat some have said.. if u can survive here, u wouldnt have a problem when u leave for some other places. haha.. wat a consolation huh.

hmm.. still feeling energetic after my long sleep but i need to rest early cos i have to meet mr dentist tmr morning. farewell to my tooth. :) *dun get it wrong, im not having any tooth decay hor! keke.. *

walking along the streets, bright n sunny yet the wind tt blows over ur face is so cool.. haha. i like it. there are a few chapels nearby and streets of shops and restuarants. musicians were playing xmas music along the road and i tot maybe i could be one of them back in sing tgt with ping or JR. haha~ the best part of today's activities was... i can take my own sweet time walking around with a buddy whom i havent met for ages! we ate ramen for "lunch", which was supposedly my brunch and we went ard via trams. without her, i dun think i can see so much within a day.

people here are very friendly and are well dressed. its more interesting here compared to sydney i would say. haha... the local time now is 5:45pm and shops will be closing v soon. but back home its only 2 plus!! wat am i gg to do here?? hmm.. i shall wait for ivy to go for dinner. i hope san will able to make it to the hotel to see me later.

till i reach home... :)

went gai gai with LY today after my dental appointment. * im gg to pull out a tooth on 24 dec!* shopped for xmas gifts at taka... there are simply too many cute stuff over there. from precious moments to those cute little gifts from japan. haha... if i can, i will buy them all back! i managed to get J a xmas gift today. the pressie is soooo cute can?! a totally usual gift i would to say. it will be great to have one but does mary have the time to look after it? nope. LY tot i was crazy when i tried toking and playing with tt pressie... =P

anyway, i really hope J will like it! shall not reveal too much here cos he will be reading this. *bleah*

will be meeting san real soon at mel. im so excited. :)

for those who are getting me pressies.. maybe u can consider my list!

1. XIAN TAN to make me happy always.
2. XIAN TAN to cure my rashes.
3. A PC/laptop.
4. A new phone. (all the electronics im using are going bonkers.)
5. A pair of levi's jeans.
6. A facial and a haircut.

haha.. im shameless. just like wat althea says.

~me~ at 10:43 PM

just touched down a few hrs ago.. tired, v tired though its only a 5 hr flight. hmm.. i must get used to it...

shanghai is quite a nice place.. cooling and many food to makan! i prefer gg to a chinese dominated country cos i can understand what they r talking abt, what the signs tells, and of cos the food which is more suited to our taste buds, esp MINE!

1. xiang yang shi chang

went there with our makeup still on.. gathered quite a lot of attention i guess. a place full of imitiations and PESTS tt keep bugging u to go to their shops. " xiao jie, yao bu yao mai bao bao??" i bought a few items.. shoes lah, shawl, LV key pouch for my dad *grinz* and a top. competition is v high in tt place cos all of them sell the same stuff and probably u will get lost cos everywhere looks the same. haha. some of the "dark" shops are located in a isolated corner of the street.. dark, dirty and old so its scary walking along the lanes. the guys there r also no better, some are quite ham sup, even in the public! we went into this shop and were immediately recognised as singaporeans once we stepped in. cos those who spotted us are singaporeans and one of the guy actually ask us out for dinner. so duhz.. such cases also happen after disembarking from the plane. then his fren came in, an actor from channel U - chen chuan zhi. they talked to us for a while before we left. we arent interested to dine or drink with them.. haha.

went to this restuarant nearby to have our late dinner. food was fabulous!! we had small dishes like zhi char then ordered dim sum.. all tgt 11 plates!! 3 of us ate 11 plates! haha.. and guess how much it cost us? only S$10 each. :)

2. day 2 with xinhui and ericia

we din do much for this day except meeting up with my 2 batch gers for breakfast *cheap and good again!* and did some walking ard the hotel. theres nothing much seriously.. at their so called shopping mall. its ugly on the exterior of building but inside the building are high end boutiques.. nah.. not my place to shop. anyway, i only like gg to the supermkt. CDs and VCDs are cheap there. yah, ITS ORIGINAL!

initially we are supposed to meet byrce but just too bad the timing doesnt allow us to.

3. ...

it can be really tiring to put up smiles, to be polite, to know ur work n procedures v well, to practise the CULTURE..

will i get used to it eventually or will i *ahem* ?

she made me v disappointed today. sigh.. i really hope she can be more firm in her r/s. tried toking some sense into her a few times but somehow its kinda useless.. sometimes do find her a little weird too.. dunno what is up her mind.

will keep this short cos i need to have enuff sleep for tmr.

dance steps are or more or less finalised. im glad. just tt i hope pple can be punctual and be MORE considerate. dun drag the time and happily do ur own stuff. u r waste others' time u noe?

a shopping day all by myself. maybe bcos im pissed and needed something release tt pressure bulit within me. so i pampered myself.. bought stuff, makan. haha... i feel bad for splurging again. i already spend abt 500 bucks for this mth. hmm. its also an usual day cos i went into a restuarant in bugis and told the man, " table for ONE." yah, i ate alone in a thai restuarant. i did eat alone by myself in canteens, food courts, fast food outlets b4 but at a restuarant, this is the first time. quite fun actually cos its nice sitting at a corner enjoying the meal myself... but i do feel a little funny. i still prefer eating with a companion. :)

ZT baked cheesecake for me n yun. he is indeed a rare specie!

a hungry man is an angry man.

had my dinner only at 10pm. mon was like tt too. dance practise after lessons is damn damn tiring and for goodness sake, we have to try this and tt move to fit into the music. the steps were not prearranged by the choreographer. she die die want certain parts (from her fren's dance) and want us to help her to think of ways to fit them in. hmm! okie, cant really blame her cos shes as busy as the rest of us but i just feel pissed off having to waste time to think of each different steps for each individual dancer. i really wonder if she a real dancer... cos she did not arrange the moves in sets of 8, she simply tell us to go by feeling thru the music. coordination is bound to have a prob here mah? then she expects us to be prefect with our moves in just 4 prac session of abt 2 hrs each. hmm.. ridiculous, esp for a non dancer like me.

due to the dance, i cant join ericia and the rest to go home after class. so i gotta take mrt by myself all the way home. its almost a 2hr journey. was super tired, pissed, hungry, lonely, sleepy..... sigh, who as k me to stay so far!? yah! and for tmr.. which is my off day... she want us to go back STC for more dance prac... im fine with it initially but when i heard tt we need to be there by 845am tmr.... i just feel v pissed. argh!!!!!

i just want some time for myself to rest and sleep, to pack my luggage b4 i leave for shanghai on fri, to make some notes for B777, to see the doc for the rashes. *yah, all over my body and my eyes are swollen. @.@ tsk tsk tsk*

had enough of my grumbles? tts me.

"Chronic sleep loss may result in weight gain"

HD sent this article to me. hmm.. no wonder im gaining weight! oppz. :X
so pple... dun deprive youself with the necessary rest u need... esp those night owls who dont sleep! u noe who u are. hehe..

today's lesson ended early but we have to stay back to practise for the dance. for the whole of this week i have to commit myself to tt.. its tiring. however, being able to meet gina today really makes my day, even though it was like 2hrs only. i really enjoyed chatting with her and doing our shopping at TOYS R US. hey FOF! do u rem in IT1003, we had some case studies on TOYS R US? and we did a presentation on general motors? and there was this mr macdonalds in our class? hahahha.. opps, the word TOYS R US just triggered tt part of my memory.

im not as fortunate as some who can afford to travel ard the world every year, do whatever things they like, buy like no one biz without having to worry abt $, having tt great brains and looks... how i wished i could throw big tantrums and pple will shower me with their unlimited love.. but usually it doesnt happened for me. i am more often being reprimanded instead. haha.. being more on the quiet and introvert side, sometimes i felt i am so insignificant and not appreciated. maybe im just too plain cos im just someone who wished for a peaceful life and dared not take big risks. *hm.. im being so negative again. *

sometimes i really envy my frens around me, all the things they have, their experiences and the pple they meet in their lives. one can be super duper, duper super mean to their gfs/bfs but their other half still treat he/she like angels. parents and siblings giving their fullest support in watever they do. money and studies have never been a problem to them. life seems to be always smooth sailing for them.

maybe too many of my frens are having wonderful lives. haha.. or perhaps wat i have seen are the surfaces of an iceberg. what lies beneath, we usually do not know. but i noe for myself tt i have missed out quite alot of things in my life. many many chances.. i would love to play sports, go for outward bound camps, go hawaii with SAJC band...

okiez... to think at the brighter side, life isnt too bad for mary. she has many frens though not very close to alot of them. :P she is well fed and well dressed.. not like the poor kids in india. she has a degree in something she likes. shes not too ugly like shrek and not too evil to be put in jail. she is somehow a little musically inclined; not tone deaf and she's gg to fulfil one of her dreams soon. :)

life can never be perfect. u def have something yet lack of something.

happy birthday ms bee! i called u just now but cant hear wat u were toking abt.. hmm.. and u hanged up my call! haha.. anyway, i hope u have enjoyed yourself. i will make up for ya k?

its a rainy rainy day today. i hate it. somehow the rain just drowns my mood for the day.

"Today, you may feel a little more vulnerable than usual. Perhaps you feel hemmed in by decisions you can't put off, or you're a little overworked and overwhelmed by all your numerous activities. And no backward glances allowed! Dwelling on the past will not help you at all..."

yah, im gg to be super bz for the next 2 weeks. so many things to see into..

~me~ at 11:35 PM

a long day for me, starting as early as 10 am. went to see imp after.. hmm, 2 weeks? i feel quite paiseh to keep changing the tuition date with her mum. luckily her mum was nice and was alright with it. i wonder if i will have time for her in future.

after tuition, went straight to meet colynn and the rest at city hall to get our watches. for the past few weeks, i have been out seeking for a good watch but nothing captures my eye. not until i came back from sny, when i decided to get a dual time watch so i can have a better management of time when im abroad. *its quite stressful to keep track of time* its so bloody hard to find a nice and reasonable price watch with dual time loh... one shop hardly have 5 such watches. lucky me again, found one not too bad one. i quite like it. stopped at a vegetarian restuarant to have my brunch beforing leaving for suntec and then to orchard where i left to meet ampk.

suddenly i rem something. jj once commented tt i have became a social butterfly, hoping from one place to another to meet pple. i wonder if its true? it just happened to be mah.. haha. but there's one thing i cant deny... lately i have been seeing those very very old frens of mine who i dun keep in contact with, all coincidentally! doreen lah, obatah lah, johnathon, juvena, andy...

reaching orchard alone is not a good thing. cos i have a tendency of buying stuff on impluse when im alone... saw nice nice tops made of wool. hee, got very excited of cos! yupz i bought it. 45 bucks. a little ex i feel but i love it! esp tt button at the bottom. hahaha... and he agreed with me tt the button is outstanding. oh my.. im paying for tt special button!

ate alot and spending quite alot lately. hmm. shall guai guai stay at home the next few weeks i think.. haha...

yeah yeah... finally got to meet my batch mates after one week plus. shared our experiences and of cos gossip abt everything we can think of. haha.. u noe, we r girls! me n my buddy's encounters seem to be the more terrifying ones compared to the rest... except for B who was heard to be forbidden to take her meal. hmm.. and the culprit was promoted recently only. hmm... anyway, wats over is over, we just hope for the better to come.

my motto: "Don't do things that you don't wish others to do to you."

apart from seeing my batchmates, the other reason was... i met almost the whole nus science club in JP when i was on my way home! haha... so happy to see them can?! i haven seen fren of fren, gossiping fren, my darling, ZH, eileen, jv, khun weetong, jus, ryan... all of them for a long long time. they were doing publicity for TQ 2005. hmm.. just reminds me of the sweet old days. heh, im old. i guess they also got a shock of their life when they saw me lah.. hehe.. esp althea, she tot im really a mamasan when i told her i worked in geylang. wahahah~ buay tahan her manz. she seems so gullible. i supposed alot cant take the way i look now. :)

i stayed with them for awhile, listened to jerome's (if i din get his name wrongly) fanastic voice. saw mare n adrain, WQ, KX, XF.... JP is always my meeting pt for frens but always at the wrong time.

and today we received news abt bonuses! yeah!!

the SYD trip was much more pleasant and satisfying compared to the NRT one. better seniors to guide us along, learning much more things cos we followed them for 2 sectors. there were many kids on my side for the return trip. they were so mischievious and at the same time SOooo cute. contradicts eh? with them ard, they simply make my work much more relaxing. terrible mistakes still occurs but i hope i wont make them again! :P i had the chance to sit at the cockpit as well! when i heard abt the news, i immediately recalled how hy describe the sunrise she had tt time. too bad, i din see any sunrise but it was damn exciting to be in the cockpit seeing how the pilots work and how plane take off and land. u see urself like floating among the clouds.. who can have this chance manz? haha~

actually have many plans for today but last min everything seems to cock up. hmm, dressed up and sitting infront of the comp stoning.

after sooo many mths, i finally managed to catch a movie with J. the incredibles are such cute characters... the show was funny, really funny. i give 4 bites for this... * crunch, crunch, crunch, crunch." haha..

dunno wats with me today. i just dun feel well. the feeling of emptiness even though im out on the bz streets of orchard with J. hmm.. maybe i just feel uncertain abt alot of things and my future bah. anyway, back to the movie.. b4 the show started, a short clip abt the "jump jump lamb" (direct translation from the chinese subtitles) was shown. initially i tot tts part of incredibles u noe?! haha.. to some, maybe its only some silly clip to amuse the audience. to me, it did convey an impt msg.

" life is full of ups and downs, and we shd make the best out of the bad times. dun hide, be brave to face the difficulties."

for these few days, a few things have triggered my thinking mode. the above is one of them. my SNY trip, then YH being admitted to hospital tgt with her mum. the hospital visit i had, etc etc etc...

J must be snoring on his bed now. keke. take care hor.
