It’s raining the whole day in Dubai! omg! First time, the sun didn’t shine its beams at me. haha… What a phenomenon! People are rushing out of their buildings to see the rain. Hmm… they should visit Singapore! Not only have they got to see rain but also to hear the sky roar. Hee…

What a nice day to stay at home and ‘nua’. Currently listening to the songs that my sis had sent me. Nice! She’d it all done with the lyrics. hmm… just missed out the ‘han yu ping ying’ that’s all. =p I’m going to hit the box soon. Hee…

My last trip was a torture but was fun. Fun cuz flew with Moira again and met up with a couple of friends. Torture cuz its night flight throughout the whole flight pattern and time at the layover was used to the max. I had to attend classes during my Sin stop, go home to my comfy bed n family and also to bring Moira around Sin. Worst thing is that they assigned me to do galley for two sectors. And it’s a full flight! It’s ridiculous! I’m one of the juniors and they knew Singaporeans will be so shagged on this flight. They’re so mean! *sob* Anyway, luckily nothing went wrong accept a little woo haa here n there. I flew with good crew & Moira this time. So it’s not that bad.

Moira wanted to see the partying life of Sin and with the recommendation of Will. We went to Momo. Together with Wanling, Kelvin & Terrance (Moira’s friend), ZR & Zhiwei. I didn’t have a good impression of momo but it wasn’t that bad as I thought. Previously, the furthest I went it’s the main entrance. After seeing the crowd we just went off. Hee… I guess that’s why my sis didn’t join me this time. But indeed like what my sis says, the crowd is young & ‘lian’. Hehe… anyway, it’s the company you have which will makes the day. I was hesitating to go initially but because of Moira that I still went on despite being dead tired. And we had a good time. Drinking, dancing & socializing…I hate the last one but no choice seeing people standing in daze annoyed me. Haven seen Zhiwei for a long time. I think ever since we left school. Yup, he’s a little different now. More quiet but I guess it goes along with age. Haha…I’m saying myself as well but it’s the opposite. =p

Momo Photos here.

I didn’t take any photos in Melbourne. Just collapse in the hotel till wake up call. Felt so bad cuz I promised Moira that I’ll go out with her. But the galley duty really drains away all my energy. From the 3 chipped nails and a cut on my finger tells all. ouch!

Hee… My part time job is being a tour guide now. Photos of the Merlion & Esplanade Tour…. Later we had foot reflexology in lucky plaza. And these are the points that I should take note of: Lack of sleep, irregular meals, needs to drink more water, shouldn’t stand too long, DON’T HOLD URINE! Haha… isn’t all this related to my job. Gosh! It’s really harmful. Hmm… I can add these points into my OHS assignment.

I’ve three assignments on hand now. Both is related to my work environment, one is on pollution and the other is on health and safety. Hee… I’ve started my search through different airline and guess what I’ve found. SQ has the most detailed information about it. Hmm.. Even JAL has it but EK… none. They didn’t even mention anything about the health effects when in air. As least most of the ‘Big’ airlines, they did mention a little in their annual report but I couldn’t find it in EK. But I’ll continue to search cuz I’m very curious on how the Arabs deal with it.

Recieved a parcel from Barry! And a heart warming letter from Adeline. Always makes my day when i get ‘hugs & misses’ after coming back from a flt.

Guess what Barry got for me….

Vcds! It’s on his africa trip! And i’m one of his supporting actress. haha… I’m gonna watch it while having my dinner later…

2 more days… and i’ll be back in Sin again! hmm… should i be excited or nervous? eh… will be having a quiz when i’m back and i’ve not study for it yet. Gosh!

An angel appeared and said, “Why are you spending so much time on this one?”

HOWEVER, IF THERE IS ONE FLAW IN WOMEN,

omg! I can’t believe i’ve spent the whole day just doing photos. haha…. Anyway, am glad that all pics r upload, resized and it’s all done!
This trip to Perth, i’m doing it with Moira! So happy! Well, the photos will tell.
We went on a half day tour to King’s Park, fremantle, Cottesloe Beach and a Swan River Cruise. It’s actually quite ex and not worth it. We just drive pass the Beach!!!! We thought we’ll get a stop there. =(
Anyway, the heat is terrible. I’m burned again! *sad* Tonight i’m going back to SIN and up to Melbourne, back to SIN again and last Dubai. hee… Will be doing it with Moira again! Yipee! We’ve lots of plans but am sure by the end of the trip. I’ll collaspe. haha.. *touchwood*
I’ll better pack my luggage n stuffs n get as much rest as possible. hee….

Yup! The photos taken during my leave in S’pore is all ready to view. What a memorable CNY i had this year. Taking airplane is like taking taxi… waiting in the airport it’s like waiting for durians to drop from the tree… Anyway, this trip back is mainly to take the Ergonomics Test. If not for that, i’ll most probably in Nice sipping tea.
Was rather disappointed with myself, studied quite a lot for the test but still didn’t do well. My mind totally went blank upon seeing the paper. All i remember is useless facts. I think my inner mind keep telling me that i could not do it yet i have to do it. Or i should say i don’t have the ‘heart’ for it.
Oh, it’s already over and i don’t wana spoil my happy day. hee…. I’m going home tonight! And Mummy is going to wait for me at the hotel with my ‘Ai Xin’ dinner. Yipee!
And guess what I’ve got another flowers. Well, i guess the florist made a mistake but anyway it’s in my living room now!! haha…

Almost forgot, my first wakeboarding experience in SIN together with Genie & ZR. hee…. Finally able to stand up! Yippee!!! But i’m burned! So tan and dark now. And my mum says i looks ‘dirty’… haha… and shouldn’t expose to the sun anymore. haiz…. why do i have to be in this situation? *sob*

Whatelse in this trip? I’ve met Ailing & Geraldine before heading down to MOS. Had dinner at Raffles City Cafe Cartel. Manage to catch the cny fireworks too….

Geraldine, me & Ailing

Hmm… My first impression of MOS? ‘Wow!’ The deco and concept of the rooms are cool. Thanks to John for bringing genie & me in! Hee… escape the Q & charge! Well, but i wouldn’t go MOS on friday night again. The mainfloor is playing Trance and i’m not so into that kinda music. Would definetely try Wed night someday! Ladies night n music is good too. hee…

Genie & Me ‘fa qiao’ in the toilet

I’ve met Regina in the toilet. What a place to bum into her.

June got me my birthday bear! All the way from Japan. So sweet of her right? hee…. introducing 23juli bbear….

And my heros of the night! Thanks for accompanying me throughout!

Eugene, ZhiSeng & Will

Didn’t expect i’ll get any flowers this year but someone did surprised me. Thanks to whoever it was Ridwan. There wasn’t any name on the card and Daphne was the one who signed it. hmm… Clueless? Anyway, it definetely brighten up my day. hee.. i took a picture of it.

Yipee, i’ve finally upload my NYC photos.eh… there’s still lots to upload.anyway, i’ll do the rest tomorrow. This New York trip was so enjoyable and well spent thou i hardly had enough rest. Met up with Beng and Lynn on the first day. It’s my first time meeting Lynn and my pleasure to know her. She’s fantastic! She’s also a Singaporean and has been in NYC for around 6 years. Isn’t it amazing? Too bad was so engross in holding the mic didn’t manage to take any photos of her. We went to Chinatown for KTV session (k-box standard) and after that head back to the hotel for in room movie. Haha… We had a hard time on deciding which movie to watch. And at last since there’s three of us, we decided to watch horror movie (SAW 2) as the rest of the movies is either one of us had seen it or wasn’t too tempting. The show was gross and the ending is unexpected. Not too bad. Most of the time I’m covering my ears so didn’t really know the details of the story. hmm…
Oh, anyway Lynn had to work on the next day so she couldn’t join us. What a pity! I wanted to go to the temple in Chinatown to repay my wishes so we had lunch there as well. The chinese new year spirit is there. Shops selling decorations and tibits. Nice nice! We didn’t wana have too much plans so just make the day simple and sweet. Beside Beng have to catch the evening train back to New Haven and i’m meeting June for dinner. We had New York’s Famous Cheesecake from Lindy’s. hee.. yum yum! That’s was June last flt. I’ll miss seeing her in nyc. but i know she’s much happier now.

hhaha… Guess what! was in msn chatting and now I know who’s the flowers from. Thanks a lot, RIdwan! They’re lovely! Happy Vday to you!

After a long break, i’m finally back in the land of sand. Been sleeping throughtout the whole flt but dunno why still feeling so sluggish. Maybe it’s the thought of working. hee… going back to my dreamland. tata!

Zzzzz

After taking the test yesterday, i’ve confirmed one thing. Study is not my cup of tea. No matter how hard i’ve tried i’m still not smart enough. Well, there goes the saying ‘ Study Smart Not Hard’.
Well, my last day of leave. Actually, my leave was over yesterday. It’s my Rest day. I’ve ’steal’ the day. Thanks to the Perth flt. But i’ll get it when i’m doing the flt. Pray hard to keep my eyes open. hee.. cuz won’t be having much time to ‘rest’. Will reach in the morning and have to leave for the flt in the night. And so lots of unpacking and packing to be done.
I just hate this time of the month. My emotions will just take control over me. Few hours back, it slapped me again. I think my sis had a shocked but it isn’t new to her anymore. hee… ‘Sorry jie!’ and thank you for always being there to hear my nonsense. *I thought a journal will solve it but i guess you’re still the best medicine.* I just need to spill it out and i’ll be fine. I can’t cope with too much stuff in my brain and the feeling of things not being done which should be done. Am i giving myself too much stress and unnecessary stuffs? Just had a chat with Andrew in msn and i think he is someone with a strong character. Someone which you can talk to, get advise from and being listened. Not only that, he is a super +ve person filled with lots of moltivation and hope. Poor Andrew always came in at the wrong timing; always when i’m super down. But he still manages to liven me up no matter what. Just by a few sentences of words. Isn’t it amazing what words can do? I think people always have to be reminded of things. It’s not that we don’t know it’s just that we forget about it and have to be reminded again. Well, Andrew is that kinda of person who will makes you think why and how. Hmm… I say he can be a philosopher and counselor but he was saying he might be a monk. Monk?
Still haven got any pics upload to labby. Don’t feel like doing these in Sin when i could spend the time with a human thou i treat labby as my good friend. hee… Will do it after my Perth or maybe after Sin-Melbourne. hee….
Hmm…I had a perm today. Wasn’t what i wanted. Am so sad. And was told that i need a mth or two to loosen the curls till the way i wanted. A MONTH OR TWO? how am i going to face the world now with these ‘maggie mee’? *sobz* Another setback of the day, i’ve to go home with partially wet pants. Don’t ask me why. It wasn’t my day. Should have stayed at home like the previous days. What am i doing? But the happy thing is, i had my 2006 luo hei and we celebrated Felicia’s 17th birthday. How time flies? I still remember when we’re kids… we love to build tents using mattress. haha… And tomorrow she’ll be receiving her O’levels results. So excited for her.
Went ktv session right after my test. Gosh, i desperately need a break! Especially after that horrifying paper! I don’t wana think how badly i’ve done just wana forget about it. My life is changing and i’m still not use to it. For the past yrs, i’ve been hanging out with friends, pampering myself, lazing around all the time when i’m in Sin. And now study had taken everything away. Seldom that i’ve got the chance to come back but it will soon steal all my S’pore time in the future. Am i ready for it? I feel so weird, that kind of feeling is so hard to describe. Anyway, I had an enjoyable singing session. Went together with Jie, Theresa, David & Eugene. I’m going to learn the songs in Jay’s newest album. omg, the melody is so nice! Just can’t stop humming it. I’ve even asked my sis to on it in her room later in the night. haha.. and repeated it tons of times.

Yup, finally get to attend my first lecture. Last night could have been my worst night if not for Audrey. I can’t imagine myself sitting alone in the lecture hall, facing the big big projector and hearing words which are so unfamiliar. And the people around me are so different. It’s not like those I’ve seen for the past 2 years. Our conversation is new too but with a little touch of familiarity. It’s weird to me at first. Well, this will be the area which I’m planning to venture in the future.
My course mates come from different level, age and industry. Most of them are from NEA, safety or bio side or something which somehow related. And I feel so ‘out’. Didn’t wana tell them what I’m working as. But wasn’t possible with these science students cuz they’ll sure to ask questions after questions till they got the answer they wanted. I got the feeling like I’m back in my poly days. Feeling rather happy yet afraid. Afraid if I could make it, afraid of not attending lectures and sitting for exams, afraid of projects which I could do with no one, afraid of this coming test tomorrow which I’ve not attended a single class and revision not finished yet. But still sitting here and procrastinating. Haiz…
