Zara + Guerlain

29-Jun

True enough, I knew I am not the candidate they are looking for hence today is yet another "experience" gaining. As I already saw it coming hence I aren't at all hopeful but still I am hoping for miracle.

Dropped by at Tangs to trade-in my old lipstick and paid SGD18 for a brand new one at Guerlain. This time round I am smart enough to look for the expiry date and it stated 1 year from now so not too bad.

Proceed to Zara next as I wanted to refund the skirt I bought the other day. It have been a while since I last bought any clothes. I know I shouldn't even be spending anything but I really can't control myself. Went on to purchase a skirt and a tee. Instead of getting back SGD59.90 as refund I ended up top-up another SGD59.90 for the 2 items. Horrible of me isn't it...

Y was told me yesterday that her company will be having another round of X program and she have a feeling she will be one of them. Not because she is not good but rather she was new hence "cheapest" to release. And true enough she text me today telling me she "got" it. Regardless of whether if you see it coming or not it is still kinda of sadden. Lucky for her is that she is not in any debt and her house is not ready yet. And that her online business is somewhat on the way of launching hence this might yet be another good opportunity and give her more time to focus on her new found interest/business. I am not at all worry for her because I knew she will be able to find another job very soon.






Vomit + LS = Sucks

28-Jun

Freak!! Vomit 3x and LS 2x today!! Even Mum also LS and Mei vomit 2x, we suspect the wantan noodles is not clean! I hate vomiting, the feeling is horrible and there is a this funny "taste" at the back of my throat.. eeks!!!!!

Feeling a little hungry now but dare not eat anything for fear of vomit again. Argh... Can I have some good luck with me?? Can I have some good news on job hunt or something good happening to me???? 

Don't know what's ahead of me but I am praying for the best. Again the stupid JavaScript is giving problem and my browser appears to be hanging but I know the script is running at the back-end. Can you please just give me a break? I need to get some work done.

At long last I have an interview session tomorrow that was like sitting around at home for more than 1 week with no calls. The feeling is really scary and after I look at the JD, I knew they wouldn't choose me because I don't fit into the role. It is yet another "experience gaining" only.

No Mood To Go Out

26-Jun

Was supposed to meet Nee and Ling for lunch today. They are buying me belated birthday lunch. But I have been having stomach since 2 days ago and  today it is again feeling somewhat "funny". LS a few times too! I am really not in the mood to go out. Maybe this is just a "convenient" excuse for myself? Ha..

Sis cleared out one of her tier-drawers and its a good chance for me to throw away the wooden one in my room! I have had been wanting to get rid of it for the longest. With the help of sis, I managed to throw away the shelf as well as re-arrange my stuffs in the tier-drawer. We targeted to finish everything by 5.30pm so as to watch the 21th Music Award Ceremony on TV.


Durian ... Yummy!!

25-Jun (20:20)

Yuppie!! Durian time!!! It have been quite some time since sis last bought durian home. She had wanted to buy few weeks back but I have yet recover from my sore throat.  Ha.. We have to finish and dispose it before mum is back. (:

Besides buying durian sis also rented some vcds. I nearly faint upon seeing the vcds, you will know what I mean when you saw the photo below. *slap forehead*

Snowy Who?

25-Jun

This is not just a Baby Tigger to me and my sis. His name is call Snowy and WeWe for short. He belongs to Mei but I success in "kidnapping" him over. Can't remembered when was that but he have been with me for few years to date. I liked its texture and it is indeed very adorable! 

He has an IQ of 180, on long term medication to control his hyper-active. Loves purple color and is very good with mathematics. His ambition is to be a Director and take over the family business. He have a dog called Euro, it was name after the currency for Snowy loves $$$. Thrifty as he is but he is always willing to spend on food and his family members. He shared room with JunJun and PanPan, best buddy is Sunshine. Snowy is constantly thinking of tricks to trick his brothers and sisters.


Congrads Cousin!

24-Jun

Today is Woon Ting's big day. Woke up around 4am to get ready. Can't remember in exact what time we reached her place but I reckon it should be around 5.30am. Woon Wee played a little riddle game with the groom before letting him in. After the groom and bride left, 1st Auntie broke down into tears. Only then did we realized that there were some unhappiness in the morning. Haiz.. Guess every time when there is something major there are bound to be hiccups be it minor or what. Everyone tried to pacify her and ask her to take a rest or catch a cats nap as she have been up the whole night.

The ceremony was held at the temple. Simple and blissful affair I would say. All the friends and relatives are there to give the groom and bride their best wishes. After the ceremony we moved down to the canteen for refreshment. OMG... Everyone was rushing for food lor! Some are going for their 2nd and 3rd round whereas we are still waiting for the crowds to clear.. *faint*.. At the end, we still need Woon Wee to serve us because we simply don't feel like joining the crowds for food.

After that, we went back to 1st Auntie's place to wait for bride and groom to come back for tea ceremony. Everyone was sitting around and waiting for close to 2 hours. Its really tiring.. The whole thingy ended around 2.30 and we finally were on our way home at 3pm! *phew*... What a tiring day.... We were all knocked out at the end of the day. Especially Auntie Gina, she merely slept for 1 hour the day before!! Ha...

Don't think it is nice to post their photos here hence I am only going to post the "safe" ones. (:







The ring that I wore that day! 

My favorite bangle from House of Harlow.


Goodbye Rolex

23-Jun

Goodbye my rolex... I have no choice but to pawn you away because I need the money to
pay off my bills. Hopefully, I will be able to bring you home soon. 

It's a rainy day today yet I have a sudden craving for desert. Chendol and popiah.. Auntie Gina will be sleeping over at our place tonight. We will go to 1st Aunt's place early tomorrow morning for Woon Ting's wedding. I am happy for her, she have found a man who will take care of her and love her. Wishing her a blissful marriage.


Happy Birthday To Me!!!

22-Jun

Today is my birthday! My 32th birthday to be exact. Each year I will take leave on this special day and pamper myself with shopping or just rest at home. This year, I don't even have to take leave and I have already been resting at home for 3 months. Jobless.. that is my current situation. I could have gotten myself out of this but stubborn as I am I refused to curve in and bite on the pay cut thus I am in this situation.  It's raining cats and dogs outside now, wondering if God knows deep down within my heart I am feeling despair, worry and sad...


I only have 1 birthday wish and that is to get a job asap. Not just a job but 1 that is paying me fairly and enable me to clear off my debts. The last time I ever made a wish with a birthday cake was on my 21st birthday and true enough I think my prayer/wish was heard! Indeed I got attached the following year but to a man whom proven to be a lousy one. Anyway that is already old history and I have also recover from it.

Mum cooked "面线" for me and sis bought me a birthday cake, close friends sent their wishes via sms and email. I think that's good enough. At least on this special day there are still people besides my family whom remembered.

Worry...Scare...

19-Jun

Its really nice that someone remember your bdae and its even great if someone give you a present! I didn't expect Janet-san to remember my bdae and least of all to give me not 1 but 2 bdae present! Its really nice and sweet of her!! I am truly touch.. the bangle that she gave me is really nice. An early bdae pressie.

I have received 2 bdae pressie so far.. from Sis - Korean Dictionary and Janet-san. Oh... not to forget Jac - Silk Natural foundation! Its really sweet and nice of them. This year I am not able to gift myself any expensive present nor pamper myself to some expensive dinner etc.. I have been jobless for coming to 3 months and I am in deep financial problem if I don't get a job fast. I only have myself to blame for turning down the job offer and there isn't anything on hand for me now.. I am really worry and scare.



Pawn?

18-Jun

Went to pawn shop with mum yesterday and the offer price for the rolex is really low - $2700 think I will just go with it.. No choice.. I need to pay bills.

I start to question myself lately with regards to turning down the job offer from SoftwareOne. Did I made the wrong decision? Now, I totally have no job offer on hand.. the last few interviews I been to are all flop... I am worry and panic.. Now, I rarely get any call everyday.. How? There arent much job openings available either.. I am really worry.. What should I do? I am really worry... How long will I remain jobless? What am I going to do?

I know having a positive thinking is very important but with the pending bills that needs to be "attend" to how am I going to be positive? I am chanting in my heart and praying hard... Hope that I will get a job soon and this time round I will grab any job that come the way.

Routine..Routine

14-Jun

Continue my routine of job hunting. Have another appointment coming up with another agency on Wednesday, hopefully she can place me in some good openings. Audrey said Wed is MNG sales doubt i m going since i really need to cut back on my spending. Maybe.. maybe I can go and take a look? Haiz... Gotta bring the watch down this Thursday to sell so that I have money to pay bill this month. haiz.... Really vex.. when will I be able to come out of these???

Cough is still bad, hope that it will get better tonight. I really need some good night rest.

Herbal Tea - Mummy's Love

13-Jun



Mum brew hebal tea for me despite her tight morning chores. I am really touch by it and vow to be more obedient then before.

Still coughing very badly, hope that after drinking the herbal tea my throat will get better.


Fallen Sick - Part 3

11-Jun



DAM!! Dr Lui have left for the day and it is only 10am lor!! He wouldnt be coming back till tomorrow and I can't wait.. SHIT! Have to go to the other doc, whom I dislike. Was given hell lots of medicine and some real strong antibiotics. *faint*... It cost me a good $50!!!! Ended up I torture myself for nothing for the past few days... If I had gone to the doctor earier, the fee might be cheaper and I would have recover by now! DAM....

Decided not to go for KR class tommorrow. As for facial appointment, see hows the suituation tomorrow. Maybe I might cancel and reschedule it too. Maybe I should just rest more at home. ARGH!!!! Why me??? Why now????

Fallen Sick - Part 2

10-Jun

Stubborn as I was, I still refused to go to the doctor hoping to save some money. Well, looks like I am just torturing myself! Dam.. I just have to go to the doctor first thing tomorrow. Why the sudden change? My eyes have been tearing since this afternoon and there are thick greenish and yellowish dirt around my eyes.. yucky and I am afraid of eyes infection!!

Can't sleep well the whole night either... Been waking up every hour looking at the clock waiting for day break. Tried lotsa of different sleeping pattern in search for the one that will stop the cough. FAT HOPE!!!!!!! ARGH....

Fallen Sick

09-Jun

There have been quite a few missing entries because I have been sick for the past few days. The last time when I was this sick was 2 years ago. The fever refused to leave me alone.. dam.... since Monday night I have been having fever on and off thru today. And my sore throat have also taken a turn from bad to worse... I can hardly drink water w/o feeling the pain in my throat! The pain is really killing. Was supposed to go for an interview this morning but I completely cant drag myself off the bed. Had to call up the company requesting for a reschedule. Haiz...

Thats not all... Just when I was about to leave my house and my key cant be found anywhere in the house!! This is a first time for me. Panic as I was, called up my sis then mum.. Yah, it was my mum she took my key by mistake! Brilliant right!! *slap forehead* Luckly sis offered to come home to open the door for me, she knew how important the interview is to me. I really thank her for that.. She have to spent $30+ on taxi to and fro, its really not easy for her. Not that I wouldn't do the same for her but I really never expect her to do that for me.

My fever seems to have come back again after my 1st interview. And I was already running late for the 2nd interview hence I decided to go home instead. I didnt even called up the company, which is my bad but I really don't know what to say and I am really not feeling very well. Haiz... Dropped by at the medical hall to buy some herbal tea, hopefully it will cure my sore throat and cough.


Task Accomplish

6-Jun

There is something that I am supposed and promised to do yet I never really get down to doing it. I have been a little more than 1 year.. haha. that is to edit my Korea+HK holiday foto! haha

Busy Day

4-Jun

[10:06]

Just came back from the 1st interview of the day. Not sure if I will be able to get the job but at least I have already gave it a shot so the rest gotta leave it in the hands of god. Feeling tired but can't afford to be overslept since I have another interview going on this afternoon.

Today is Friday and it have been 7 days (excluding weekends) since my last interview with AIC. I have not heard from them since thus its not hard to derive at the conclusion that I wasn't been selected for the position.

Don't really like the job offered by the 2nd interview (Netability). Its a vendor environment and I don't really fancy it. No sense of belonging since I will be station at client's office. But if that is the only job that is offered to me I will just take it from there and look for other opportunity after that. I need the hard fast cash now.

Prayers...

3-Jun

It have been 1 week and I have not heard anything from AIC. I knew deep down that I don't stand a chance and that they already hired someone else. I am feeling scared...When will I get out of this "situation"? I needed a job to pay the bills. Where am I lacking?

God.. If you are there... if you are listening to me... Please.. I am really praying very hard to you... Please let me find a job before my funds run dry. I really like the job please let me have it. Please let me hear from some other companies and agencies for possible position.

Anything...

2-Jun

Went down to Addeco this afternoon to meet up with the agent. Doubt there is any chance that I will hear from the agent again. From now on, I am going to tell no one or just 1 person about my interview thingy. The more I talked about it the likelyhood it will turn out unsuccessful is relatively high.

Kinda tired and sian.. Please... god... please let me find something fast and soon... I wouldn't be picky anymore!

Why Not Me?

1-Jun

Received email from Jenny from Agies that I have not been shortlisted by the Sompo Insurance Singapore for the 2nd interview. Guess I did not perform well enough at the interview or they prefer a male over a female. Its rather sadden that things turn out this way... Am I really that lousy and sucky? Did I made the wrong decision by turning down SoftwareOne? Maybe I should start working with them and bite on the pay cut while waiting for better opportunity?

Heart beats very fast... with each passing day it also tells that my chance of getting a job is getting dimmer. I am really scare what will happen to me? When I have run out totally of all funds what will I do? What can I do? I am really very scare.

I kept hoping AIC will called me to offer me the job but on the other hand I knew well enough, it have been 2 days and they have not called me yet this shows clearly... I wasn't what they are looking for despite given the chance for a 2nd interview. I may be well the candidate they use to "make-up" the numbers since the CIO wanted to sit in for the 2nd interview. But they already have made up their mind who to hire thus... That is me in the pathetic position yet I still think that I have a chance in getting the job. Fat hope... wishful thinking.

I am really scare... what will my future be? What will happen to me? Can't find a job for 3 months??

2 months and counting

31-May

Today is the last day of May.. and I am still job hunting. I have been out of job for 2 months and 1 week. Really scary isnt it!

Its 5.36pm now and I have not received any call from either of the 3 companies or agencies. Looks like I don't stand any chance at all. Naturally, I am feeling disappointed and sad but on the other hand I think I have already tried my best. At least I am answerable to myself.

F-Guy

29-May

FREAK!!!! Went down to Taka with intention to get the perfume who knows the F* guy twisted his words!! He said the $20 is only applicable to the MJ twin pack perfume and they don't sell the sliver bottle separately. I was pissed but with good EQ I managed to control myself.

Tried a few outfit, I was quite interested in the one from UCB but sis said it make me look preggy maybe I should go back on Monday to check it out again. Let's see how my mood goes then.

Going to grands house afterward for mini-gathering. Tomorrow is the "DAY"... I really am chanting and praying hard to hear some good news tomorrow...

Vesak Day

28-May

Its Vesak Day today. Had intended to go shopping but changed my mind again. Kinda tired and just dun feel like going out. Well, it maybe good for me since going out I will tends to spend again.

I am having 2nd tots about getting the Marc Jacobs perfume. Do I really need it? Do I really like it? I think the chanel perfume is not bad either. Hope I won the contest then I will get to have 1 FOC!!

Sad...

27-May

Its 12:38pm now.. I have not heard from any of the 3 companies, which I have went for interview this week. I am really scared... really really hope to be given the opportunity to further my 1st interview or to be given the job. My feeling now is complicated. I don't know how to describe.. Scare... Hopeful and stress.

By 5pm, I still did not received any call from the company nor agency. Likely, they will only contact me next Monday 31-May if I am being shortlisted or selected. I really dislike this feeling.. Its soo stress.. I think the other candidates @ AIC must be really good as well. Haiz.. Looks like I may not even stand a chance. Maybe, the HR already made up their mind and already contacted the candidate that he/she have been selected! Yet.. I am still waiting for the call that will never come. How sad it is isnt it! 

Is it going to me mine?

26-May

Went to AIC for 2nd interview this morning. Luckily, Mei wake me up in time else I would have been late for my appointment. Both Peter (CIO) & David (IT Mgr) was very friendly, I really hope to get the job. They will take a few days to decide and hopefully get back to me by next week. But I am hoping to hear from them as of tomorrow.

After AIC, I met up with Jovene from JobIT before moving on to NAC for my another appointment. The interview session went on pretty alright but I have a feeling I am not who they are looking for hence doubt I will be given the opportunity for a 2nd interview. Working environment wise, it seems to be a pretty good company to work in and they certainly pay their staffs well. Hope that I can hear from them soon.

Decided to meet up Jeremy for a short while, accompany him to do some shopping. I am very guai today! Ha... never buy anything despite the various temptation around.

Slacking

25-May

I have not been sending resume for the past few days. Guess I had better buckle up and start spamming the mails.

Just received a call from Gillian, SoftwareOne is willing to increase the salary by another S$100 and would like me to consider the offer and get back to them before 5pm. Think my mind is more or less set and I have decided to reject the offer. $100 doesn't make much of a difference to me. But I am still happy that they are doing this as it shows they are really keen to hire me. (: They can jolly offer this to the other candidates but yet they are offering it to me. Either that or maybe the other candidate also reject their offer. Ha...

Tough Decision - Part 2

24-May

The interview @ Sompon was good. I would say not too bad, some of the technical terms and stuffs that the Head of IT asked of me are quite challenging. Those that I am not familiar with I told him frankly. I believe it is better to tell him that rather than telling a white lie. But I did mention that areas, which I am incompetent in I am willing to put in extra hours and effort to pick it up.

Lunch with Janet-san was good except for we bumped into the entire "gang" @ the restaurant. Ha.. Don't know if they saw us.. maybe they might saw her but can't really recognized me from far? After all, I have chopped off quite a fair bit of my hair. LOL... Still, our lunch are filled with jokes and gossips.. lol

Had a little chat with Jac, asking her for opinion on the job offer. I really do feel better after having spoken to so many people. And I also made up my mind, which is to reject the offer.

I must be out of my mind.. I had actually walked into Citigem to get the ring and another bracelet from Mphosis.. OMG... I am supposed to be on tight budget and watch every cent that I spent. Really don't know whats wrong with me.

Received called from "A" for 2nd interview! Hoorayyy.... I am really happy... No doubt it doesn't means I will get the job for sure but @ least I am 1 step closer to my goal. So happened, I have another interview schedule in the afternoon on the same day. Making full use of my time. Really hope I can get start with a new job soon. Being redundant for too long arent doing me any good. 

Tough Decision

24-May (02:37 am)

Yes, its morning now and I have not gone to bed yet. The meeting @ Sompon is at 10am and I have to give SoftwareONE my answer as in whether I am accepting the offer or not.

If not for the bills I will most certainly turned it down. But for the sake of the bill should I even bite on it and curve in first? Sis does make a point, there wouldnt be much opportunity from June to Aug (thats how long my funds are going to last). And I wouldn't even know when the next offer(s) come knocking. I am just as scare...feeling lost and lousy @ the same time.

Maybe I shouldnt be so stuborn and maybe I should just give it a try. At least it will tide me thru' during the period. 35% total pay package cut is really no joke. If the job market is bad, I can understand that but it doesn't seems the case now. What should I do?

Please... let someone give me some hint, rays of lights or even some suggestion and opinion. What shall I do? Accept or Not?

Old Friend

22-May

Met up with Jeremy after class this afternoon.Brought him down to ION and 313 for window shopping. HA.. I bet after today his to-buy-list must have grown longer. LOL.. Its nice to catch up with him, after all we have not met up for quite a few years.

He is still so nice and friendly. We do have a lot to chat about. Have you ever met up with friends whom you have not met for years and during these period both of you also rarely talks? There isn't any "odd" or "weird" feeling or even atmosphere between us. hah... I for sure don't feel any, not sure about him. LOL guess I shall ask him another time.

Opportunity

21-May

Went for another interview. Well, its with an agency but managed to fix up an appointment with the company next Monday. Its another Japanese Insurance company. Wish me luck!

Went to hairfolio to cut my hair, it have been 2 months since I cut my hair and its out of shape now. (: Guess that is the cons with having short hair, you need to trim more regularly then long hair. But hey! I am loving my new hair!! Woo.. Woo... I would say it looks nicer then the previous one. That's how I think, yet to receive compliment from friends. So, as to say I spent a bomb today. Haircut and touch up the roots of my hair.. boy.. I am having more and more gray hairs now! SHIT!! I had better do something seriously about it. Maybe there might be some supplement that might do me good?

Jeremy is back in SG to visit his nephew, who is seriously ill again. Gotta text him tomorrow after my class, meet him for some catching up.

First Offer

20-May

Software One confirm and offer me the position however I am not at all happy. The pay package that they offer me is simply too low and its way beyond what I can accept. Its a good 35% total pay package cut! How to be happy about? Accept or reject? I scared... not knowing when the next offer is to come. But to accept, a part of me is so unwilling to curve in.

I am willing and ready to accept pay cut of 10%. But this is way way beyond what I can accept. Or, should I call the company and ask again? I did asked the agent to neogitate for me but she said thats the maximum they can offer. I really don't know... Maybe they had wanted to hire the other candidate but then the candidate turn them down due to the lousy pay package. If i am a fresh grad I will be more then willing to accept the offer.

2nd Interview

18-May

Received call from TS-Exlim for a 2nd interview tomorrow at 1pm but I can't decide whether to go for it or not. After the 1st interview, I think the job scope isnt something that I am looking for and I totally dun have the "heart" to go for it.. Should I even bother to go for the 2nd interview or just called to inform them?

Then, went for my 2nd interview at Software One today. Its a 50-50 chance since there are 2 candidates (including myself) being shortlisted for the 2nd interview. But judge on my performance today, I don't think I perform well hence I shldnt stand any chance.

Hopefully AIC do call me fast.... and soooonn......

NLB

17-May

Went for my interview @ NLB this morning. Had tot i might be slightly late but thank god I was on time. Waited for at least 30mins for the interview and my interview session ends in approx. 10mins! That is by far the shortest interview I have ever attend do you believe? There were in all a panel of 3 interviewer in the room.. Ha.. its not hard to guess I wouldn't stand any chance for the 2nd round interview.

The HR told me that they will inform me in 3-4weeks time if I have been shortlisted for the 2nd round interview. I am wondering why do they take such a long time to evaluate the candidates? Why took such a long time to process the recruitment? Maybe that is how the gov. bodies do their work. Anyway, I am not thinking about it nor are hopeful for the 2nd round interview.

SALES-SALES-SALES

15-May

SALES-SALES-SALES

Great Singapore Sales is here again. Freak LAH!!! Just when I am supposed to be on a total shopping ban, all of my fav brands are having sales. SHITTTTTTTY.... Should I check out FCUK before going for my facial appointment? Should I even check out TF at Sephora to see if they are going at 10%? Should I go down to Miss Selfridge to check out on their new arrivals and see if they are having sales now? You think my list ends here? Think about it..

Routine

14-May

It have become a routine to me now. Getting real bored.. Received another call this morning for an interview appt next Tuesday. I know I should be thankful for the opportunity but a part of me just felt sian. Hope I can get some real solid offer by next week.

Jurong?

13-May

Went for yet another job interview this afternoon. Again, its as good as another maze whereby I had a hard time finding the place. Actually, I have already walked passed it 1x without realizing its the office then I re-track the route again. *Phew* I am early for the interview but was asked to fill in the form.

I don't really like the job scope. I always consider myself more towards technical side and would hope to further myself in that area. Pick up new skill and knowledge. However, in this firm I totally can't see myself moving anywhere. I will be doing technical support, software installation at client site and conducting training as well. And, they will be sending me to Msia for at least 1 month for training on the software. OMG... Sorry, I am being bias.. if they wanted to send me to China, Taiwan or HongKong for 1 month I think I will be extremely excited and jumping up and down. Most importantly, I will be getting a pay cut despite having to multi-task so many roles. Haiz.... Kinda sian..

Prayer Answered

12-May

My prayers have been answered! I was shortlisted for the 2nd round of interview!! Hoorayy.. Some may think its a little too early to call for a celebration since I have not been confirm as yet. But to me, I am 1 step closer to success!

Again, if its meant to be mine it shall be. I will continue to work hard and give it my best shot.

Interviews Again

11-May

Went for another interview this morning. Was kinda pissed @ the agent, I was late hence text her to inform her yet she didn't inform the interviewer!! Freak Lah... Had tot the interviewer is a malay or indian becoz of the name.. ha.. turn out it was an angmo! LOL..

Well, I was chatting with him like friends. Some people doesn't like it... He is afterall a mgr. Let nature take its course then, if its mine it shall be.

Received a call from Nicole and was informed that I have not been shortlisted for the 2nd round interview. Disappointed that is for sure and sad. But, hey... it maybe a blessing in disguise for me or my gain and their lost. I had knew or rather have this feeling of the outcome. Surely, they will prefer a male to a female if they were to send the person oversea.

Waiting again for calls and opportunity....

1 Month

30-Apr

It have been more than 1 month and I am still on the hunt. Getting worried and stress but there is nothing much I can do. Pray... hope that I can stop the hunt soon.

Back from Taipei

26-Apr

I have came back from my Taipei trip! Infact I have been back in SG for 4 days (including today). To think that I was looking forward for the trip and now its over. Its really an enjoyable trip and I truly enjoy myself! During the trip, we (sis and i) have strengthen our relationship. I really look forward to our next "adventure".. hiak..

Well, this time round I managed to some nice tops and hair accessories. Lately, I am kinda crazy over hairbands. lol.. However, I must admit this is a pretty much control trip taken into consideration my current "suitation". But still I think overall I spent abt 2.2 on shoppin+food+hotel+trpt. Friends who know me, would probably knew that this is by far the least damage Taipei trip I made to my wallet! buahahaahah.....

And also, I have already edited my fotos and unpacked my luggage the very next day when I came back. haha... this is also another "First" time for me. To date, I am only 40% done up with my Korea trip foto.. buahah.. which was last year May! Horrible me... kakakaka..

Now that I am fully recharge, its time for me to work hard in my job hunt! Shall not procastinate any longer.

On the plane to Taiwan

16-Apr

Board the plane at 13:50. The flight seems to be pack, I guess everyone must have rushed for the promotion. 

Shortly after take off, I fallen asleep! Ha...This is consider really very fast and have never happened before! Slept for about 2 hours and waking up feeling restless.

What is Mei doing? Koon-ing of cause! Ha... I really look forward to our holiday, just the 2 of us. Finally, we are able to go together! I am listening to songs in iTouch, Soundtrack from [原来是美男]. I had tried to make the trip an interesting one so that Mei will want to go holiday with me again next time. But I know sometimes you just gotta take it easy and only then you will be able to enjoy better.  I am going to forget that I am in between job for the next few days. Let my hairs down and enjoy myself to the fullness.

Opening the window slightly, it is very hot outside! Announcement made by pilot that the temperature in Taipei is 17 degrees! Wow..cool xia! But I remembered the weather forecast on TV said the temperature will go up for the next few days. Xian... 

This is the first time I am writing a travel journal. Seems interesting, hopefully I can continue doing it throughout my trip.
Just now at Changi Airport, I told Mei I am worry about not being able to get a job. She console me and said if really no money at the most mum gave me $300 and she contribute $200! I am really touched by what she said.  At that moment I nearly cried.  How lucky I am to have her as my sister... 

我是幸福的! 所以要乐观!! 我可以的!


Planning TW Itinerary

13-Apr

The time now is 2.31am!! WT.... And I am still sitting in front of my pc! *faint*

Spent the whole afternoon and night planning my Taiwan itinerary! Despite recycling at least 60% of the information from my last trip, I still have to "spend" so much time doing it lo! Can you imagine? There are some new places, which I intend to visit this time round and without my "Ace Planner" I gotta work extra hard this time round. Haiz... Unlike previously, all I need to do is to gather all the relevant information and passed it on to my "Ace Planner", who will then consolidate the data and come out with the daily itinerary.

I have not even change the currency yet. Had wanted to do so last Friday but a lot of the money changer have run out of TW dollar.  I guess maybe due to the political unrest in BKK, everyone is avoiding the place and hence switch their destination to other nearby places eg. HK, TW.

I still have not plan my to-bring-list and to-buy-list! By hook or by crook, I really must get down to doing it tomorrow. Not much time left already.

Running Errands

10-Apr

Went to visit 2nd Auntie @ the hospital this afternoon. She just had her knee opt on Thursday. She seems to be recovering well. Hope she will recover soon.

Hang out @ the library before going for facial. Ha.. Fion don't like my short hair. She said I look more feminine with long hair. Can't say I am not affected at all by the comment. Seems like I can't style the hair back to how it looks like when I first walked out of the salon. Haiz.. But, I don't regret cutting it short. I can always keep it long again.. hehe...

Flying off to Taipei this coming Friday but I have not even do up my itinerary, change the money or even plan what to bring. Best right! I had really better start doing something tomorrow.

Pamper Myself

09-Apr

It's always good to meet up with friends. It have been almost a month since I last met up the gals. Had my gel nail infill done @ Shanghai Dreams. Li Xin rocks! I would highly recommend her. Friendly and nice, most importantly she did a great job.

Feeling stress and pressurized.. Need retail therapy however it seems to be a luxury, which I can't afford at the moment. Sounds pathetic? LOL.. I can never resist the "FCUK" temptation and yes, I curve in to my "wants" and went ahead with the purchase of the top.

Thinking I must be crazy? The top indeed cost me a bomb but ...

Getting Old

08-Apr

Getting tired of waiting. When will it come to an end?

Is age really catching up with me? Things that I enjoyed doing in the past seems somewhat boring and a waste of time to me now. So, whats my "new" interest lately then?

Nervous

07-Apr

Freak! Why do I feel so nervors this morning? I know I have tried my best.

Karma

06-Apr

It have been 2 weeks and I am glad to say that I have overcome the low "tide" period. This is the 2nd setback in my entire 30s of life! The first time happened when I was still young, about 9 years ago.

Words cant express the sadness and impact to me...especially during the first few days. Just  mere thinking of it, tears starts flowing in my eyes. Why me? Why I just don't have the kind of luck that people is having around me?

What I have learnt from this painful lesson... the poor will never be able to win the match against the rich. Sadly, but that is the hard cold fact everyone have to admit. I can fight for my rights, but how far can I go? Do I have the strong finacial support to go against all? No. I am all but lone ranger in this battle.

I came to realized how blessed I am to be surrounded by people who love me. Sis is there when I needed support most.. tapping and stretching all her resources for me.. words of encouragement and comfort. I finally understand what people meant by blood is thicker then water. Mum, being understanding asked me to take a break before moving on again. I know she is worry for me, but she choose to keep quiet rather then stress me any further. Aunts are there for me as well.... and friends.. Morale support and sincere concern is what I needed most during this period.

Karma... I hope karma truly exist on earth. And he will receive his karma in due.

First Meet Up After Goodbye

24-Mar

Met up with Papa Smurf and gang for lunch @ Vivo. Its an enjoyable lunch, lots of laughter and jokes. Everyone seems to have forgotten what have just happened few days ago. 

Maybe I should also move on. Decided to snip off my hair to mark the change. It is a crazy decision that I decided there and then.  And I put my decision into action within 2 hours! Ha... Crazy isn't it? That is me. When I decided to do something, I will just do it right away. Consequences? That comes later. Good thing that the haircut turns out to be good! I look more refresh and certainly younger. (:

It's Me

23-Mar

Yes. Its me. 1 hour is all that I take to clear out.

2nd Wave in 2 Days

22-Mar

Another wave coming again shortly after the 1st have subsided.. Or perhaps the 1st wave never did left. A-Li BaBa is the next on the list. Have this strange feeling that I am the next.

Goodbye PaPa Smurf

19-Mar



This is the 2nd time in 7 years I am saying goodbye to PaPa Smurf.
All the best in your future endeavor.

First Entry

Purpose of creating this blog is to record down the days when I am jobless. It all started 3 months ago hence I am going to transfer those entries that I have penned into the blog and it shall be backdated. The despair, dishearten and tons of other negative feelings deep down within myself. Proud as I am I can never bring myself to tell friends or my family. I don't want them to worry for me and I doubt anyone can really understand how I feel. 

I have very supportive family and good friends around me whom always giving me the encouragement. But still some things you have to overcome it on your own. I am really scare... What is my future going to be? Why am I always the one who have so much problem? Why can't lady luck just shine on me once in a while? 

This is perhaps the only channel I can vent out the frustration and despair... I don't expect anyone who know me  to be reading nor following this as I have no intention of telling anyone. This is just for me and myself. Maybe few years down the road I may find it very funny when I read the entries again.

Well, its my Birthday Today! Hey.. I am the Birthday Gal! 

Happy Birthday to ME
