took a long bus ride to the west for CNY reunion with my maternal grandparents.
travelling along the route brought me back to 1 year ago.
adam road hawker centre
pub along bukit timah road
teochew porridge opposite beauty world
i smile.
i miss.
time zoomed.
another CNY.
another Vday.
Hi everybody!
I’m back from my 10 days of winter wonderland – Seoul, Korea.
My 1st guided tour.
Everyday is from 6am to 10pm.
Of course, there are travelling time throughout which I dozed off the min I hit the bus seat
But I have to admit that we visited more places compared to free & easy. Moreover, the language barrier made travelling f&e even tougher.
Koreans can’t really speak english or mandarin.
Only simple words yes, no and directions.
In short, enjoyed the tour with ASA. Good job, ASA!
I shall consider my next trip – taiwan with you guys!
Wait til I get the photos to put up a pretty post.
for now, it’s just 2 photos.
(a) bimbimbak on the flight to korea
(b) bimbimbak on the flight to SG
Now it’s preparation for CNY. 
Money spending time.. Sighs..
it’s da hamburger from The Hand Burger.
to me, it’s just a burger that doesnt allow you to savour it in your hands.
conclusion: wont try it again.
i know why burger king is burger king.
geddit?
my new travel buddy.
we are going to New Zealand and Japan for 2010 (tentatively)
hee..
i’ve been putting down my life/thoughts on my blog for the last 4 years and now into 5th year
there are happy moments.
greatest moments.
spotlight moments.
emo moments.
down moments.
upset moments.
2010.
i wonder what is it like.
i wonder if there are more challenges or surprises.
i know work’s gonna be more challenging (aka tiring)
only at the end of the year, i will know the answer.
be with me, will you?
Wishing all a fantastic,exciting & fulfilling 2010!
why ‘gossip girl’ season 3 so short?
why ‘vampire diaries’ season 1 so short?
why you cancel ‘the beautiful life’ directed by ashton kutcher?
now i’ve got nothing much to watch. upset.
but i suggest that you guys try watching 5 episodes of ‘the beautiful life’
the models are ooohh… gorgeous!
thou shall seek your twin in Korea!
was thankful to be given tickets to Lee Min Ho’s Meet the fans event.
wanted to find out what exactly they have planned for a meet-the-fans event.
i was totally aloof to the event until he appeared right in front of me (i’m seated on the 2nd row to stage)
he’s truely CUTE.
utterly sharp features that i find it ‘painful’ to see cuz i’m jealous!
wonderful height for a man.
perfect for woman to lean on (when seated)
seeing him up close & personal took my breath away for that split second.
oh.. did i also mention that his manager is equally suave?
almost as tall as him.
almost the same built as him.
i have to admit that my attention was split for a moment. hehehe..
i’m missing 2008 Christmas. somehow 2009’s different
How has Christmas 2009 been treating you?
Are you busy buying presents, wrapping presents?
this year i’m taking a seat back on Christmas.
these 2 professions are just a thin grey line apart.
good movie!
Also watched 2 other trailers which looks interesting!
1. The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus (yes, it’s a mouth-full)
2. Percy Jackson and the olympians: The Lightning Thief
I realised there isnt any Christmas movie this year.
or Chipmunk 2 is supposed to be the one?
i’m missing my Christmas present. but i dun feel like shopping.
i’m here without you, baby.
But you’re still on my lonely mind
lately nothing much worth sharing hence the quietness.
randomly:
1. attached!
heard that a marketing colleague is attached with a product dev colleague. reminds me of those days.
but they are brave. they are open abt it.
if only mine was open, i wonder how would it be like now.
2. work politics
it got worse. am tired of such. i hear and forget it. do my work. chase my revenue. fight for a promotion.
but politics is tagged along with career advancement. how???
3. promotion
my supervisor hinted chances of promotion for me this FY. i have the next 5 mths to prove that i qualify for a promotion.
4. award
my big product won an award in the asia level. of course happy abt it. a big milestone in my career. maybe this will help to prove my promotion. but hitting target is more important cuz it equates to bonus!
a small celebration was held to appreciate the project team’s effort.
it’s me and my CEO. =)
if one day, he rems my name, i think i’m almost there.
5. Seoul-ing
my Korea trip is confirmed! i’ll be ‘celebrating’ Christmas in winter wonderland Korea in Jan 2010.
the thoughts of wearing my boots/white fluffy jacket/beanie/gloves EXCITES me.
i’ve just bought another trenchcoat to add on to the collection.
Where do i shop for a nicer beanie? hmm…
“new pacifier! let me try..”
“everybody’s laughing so i laugh too..”
“姑姑, why u always have to take picture with me? i want to camwhore myself only leh”
it’s not always sunshine. “Ah ma, where are you?? i want ah ma..”
“heee..”
“how come they all called me tigger? who is tigger? can eat?”
“姑姑 is bringing me out for shopping!! yippee!”
Victory! Yeah!
“姑姑, stop eating. take photo for me 1st”
“i like this very much! shall i use it as my profile pic? hmm.. ”
