goodbye

11:38 AM / 0 comments

Quote: 天下没有不散的宴席。 再欢兴的聚会终就会走到分别的黎明。。。


My last day at SANA. This must be the most wonderful journey i ever have. The people were great, the environment was great, the work was great! What more can i say? Truely enjoyed my 3-months stay with them.



Look, we even had a crazy farewell gathering on our last day! (Photos not yet available). First, it was lunch at Jack's Place! I'm so surprise, i thought it was lunch with the Counselling team, but all the people whom we worked with came too... Robert, David and Jeremy from PE Team. =)

Then Jeremy got us a gift (for not turning up on time at Jack's Place!)

And when we thought all was over... They got us a card, and a farewell gift... gathered again to take more funny pictures and made us do a speech.

In the evening, my sweet MJ volunteers organise another farewell for those that were leaving. Not just us la, also a few other guys. This one, is like a gathering of youths (i consider myself youths can =p). We had pizza in the clubhouse and later had Swensens. Also, we received a nice little card from them.

Well well... It was full of nonsense at the Swensens. All the crazy mind games that i used to play back in JC/Poly.. Sigh, how great it is to remain at 17. Signs of getting old man, they were so full of energy while i think i battery flated when i got home.

Anyway, the gifts we got =) :


Happy memories to let it remain heppy memories. People asked, if this place is so great, why not stay? I say, keep it as the happiest attachment of my life. Keep it that way, and hold on to the memories forever. For i do not want what i know of SANA to be tarnished. =)

not many "western" friends...

9:35 PM / 0 comments

Crazy search for "western food knifes" almost makes me die laughing. And i realise one important thing, that i don't have that many friends who have families that are very much "western-influenced". That so many of them found no such knifes at the house...

Joann (colleague): "Oh... No... I don't Have..."
Pramila: "My house we don't eat western food. So don't have." (Don't eat western food also must have some what... ><)
Guoxiong: "Don't have leh."
Wenjie: "No"
Phyllis: "I'm not sure..." (Hmmm....)

Kuang Hong: "I got one." (Your goddamn house only got 1 butter knife!? ><) My house also no eat western, i found 5 such knifes. Bleah. Hahahahaha...


This 1 is the best...: Mum (She works in a foodcourt)
Me: "Mum, can you help me borrow 10 western food knifes from the western food stall? Promise will return on Mon..."
Mum: "Don't have western food stall here."
Me: (fall off chair) "... ..."



Then finally...

Vincent: "I have 6!" (Wah thank you!)

So... 5 (Vincent) + 5 (Myself), i have 10! Settle. Enough.

Phew... @.@"

countdown to the end of student life

10:33 PM / 0 comments

Effectively from 27 November 2007 onwards, i will resign from being called a student... to being called temporary umemployed. Yes, a job's waiting for me to start 12 December 2007. Gonna be considered my first job in the field of my studies... SOCIAL WORK.

So effectively with 9 days down to the end... I wonder... WHY DO I STILL HAVE SO MANY THINGS LEFT UNDONE! There are CASES TO CLOSE, CASES TO TRANSFER, PROGRAMME TO RUN (SUN SOMEMORE!), MEETINGS TO ATTEND, REPORTS TO WRITE!!!! Reports... There is 2 school reports for the placement, 1 bloody thesis draft, and Mr K (he is my current ED) have to throw me a bomb by making me write him another bloody report for the programme... I'm not your bloody staff okie! (okok... must thank him for treating us like one, got privilege 1)

Then there is placement sharing on Fri, and i need to bring grand-daddy to hospital in the morning. Wah, 24-hrs not enough leh. Some kind of ending to my so-called student's life eh..

Anyway, i was browsing thru some JC students' blog... Those pictures... Those smiles... How i miss the real student's life... You know, those carefree moments in sec/jc times where your worst worry is the mid-term results... and the second being your dad forgot to give you pocket money. :s i miss you, can i go back to where we were before? That's my kind of student's life! The one i am going through now sux. I don't even know whether i should consider myself a student.

If there is something missing in my life now, is to go to a real uni and study.

Anyway, my placement experience had been fulfulling! Its my greatest experience so far (including poly times, i have 3 placement in total). I really want to thank all the sana staffs, my fellow colleagues, who have tolerated us for the past 3-months... putting up with our nonsenses... treating us not like students but like part of the organisation... teaching us... advising us... and most importantly for being a part of our learning journey. I think i will miss you... terribly.

when musics were simple

7:08 PM / 0 comments



when the lyrics were simple. when the songs were simple. when the singing were simple. when the mtv was simple.

Can never find such simple song, simple lyrics anymore. Wish we could turn back time and live in the past once more.

I love it.

Remembered i was a fan. Hmmmm. So link that to my age.

short, fat and ugly

10:23 PM / 0 comments

Was trying out new clothes at G2000 today. And i think i spent a tat too long in the fitting room... Just staring at myself.

Gosh. I'm not exactly short. Standing at 1.73m, i think i am okie height for a guy. Fat and ugly yes. Like i put on a lot of weight loh. Ever since i ORDed in '05.

I think during the army was the period when i looked my best. Coz they keep you really fit back then... Am simply too not discipline to keep my own workout schedule. I had one. Which i never kept to. Sigh...

Was talking to KH about careers. The pull and push factor of my career choice. The very same pull factor is the very same push factor for me to really go forward and take on that course of work. Fitness and IPPT. The pull factor is that the demand of the job will require me to keep adequately fit. As i am not discipline enough to keep my workout schedule, this job will forced me to keep one and keep to it! So i will become and remain lean and fit. The push factor, what if i still cannot do it. It will affect my performances and promotions and put more stress onto me to do well in something that i all along struggled with.

Gosh. I don't know.


Edited at 2310hrs:
Vincent's blog entry just contradicted what i wrote above. Well, the key idea is to not think too much. Live life as it is. And to accept myself (and how i may look). "accept things (including yourself) as what they are without being attached emotionally to the outcome".

That's it. I have my answer. In a span of 20-minutes after i put this up. Hmmm.

I was on the bus journey home, sitting back and relaxing, enjoying the sceneries on my passing window. All was well... Until something stuck onto my shoes.

Chewing gum. Under my seat.

Shitz. I thought this thing was banned. Darn.

Spoil my day. The worst thing was that i did not have any tissue paper with me. And i had to "recycle" a card in my wallet that i intended to throw anyway to remove that toopid piece of gum.

Come on people. Where is the social responsiblity? No wonder chewing gum was banned. Other country laugh at us for banning it. I thought we should laugh at ourselves for having it banned. If the people do not have the little bit of courtesy to dispose of their waste into the proper channel, the leaders step in and do it their way. Social control.

Yes, you can say i talked about this because i am pissed over stepping on gums. But it does give a penny for your thoughts aren't it? It is seriously a laughable matter. Not at the ban. But the people who caused its ban.

When the citizens still had not learn social responsibility, we remove more things. One fine day, we have to travel next door to smoke our cigrattes, walk our dogs and wash our dirty undies because the dripping water dropped on our heads too often when we walked under the blocks.

Good Day

Today is a good day.

3 good things happen. At work. At home. And with schoolwork. I am happy.

If only everyday can be like that. I'l be like living in heavens.

Saw this from a blog i frequent (Popagandhi)



They have a point. What's with all the Werewolves, Slayers and whatever have you... And its catching up in SG.

Facebook currently ranked 8 in Top Sites Singapore
http://www.alexa.com/site/ds/top_sites?cc=SG&ts_mode=country&lang=none

Top 3 on the list are still Yahoo, Friendster and YouTube. I don't frequent Yahoo! a lot except for webmails, but Friendster and YouTube? Its an everyday affair. Out of point. Bye.
