i used to hang out with my UNI-mates for party & drinks until i joined my current employer.
wont blame it entirely on my employer but work didnt allow me to party hard.
after 2.5yrs, i met up with them again last night for a CNY dinner.
to me, it’s truely a CNY reunion dinner.
in the beginning, it felt strange cuz i almost have absolutely no conversational topics.
guess it will take time to warm up. =)
afterall, i ‘left’ them for 2.5yrs.
the group grew as the yrs went by.
most of which are friend’s friends.
until now i do not even know some of their names.
the girls..
the boys..
all together for a CNY reunion dinner, followed by a boring Lunar.
this time, i’m determined not to ‘lose’ the friendship.
friendship is something that is hard to come by especially for my kinda character who doesnt warm up easily.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
on this note, i also wanna say goodbye to a uni-mate who joined GOD on 14 Feb 2010.
she has always been a happy-go-lucky girl.
i pray for her family to overcome the grief and continue with life, for she will be watching from above.
Goodbye.
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…
today’s entry is things that are related to happy.
sometimes it’s easy to be happy.
sometimes it’s difficult to be happy.
at the end, it’s all up to your mind.
Happy by Leona Lewis
Happiness – The Fray
Happiness feels a lot like sorrow
Let it be, you can’t make it come or go
But you are gone- not for good but for now
Gone for now feels a lot like gone for good
Tigger is happy with shoes. NIKE ones!
4 = happy! when we took photo
Car-hunting = happy x 2
camwhoring during car-hunting. happy!
can you feel the real mood behind the smiling face?
how to find the smiles that you lost?
pretend to smile?
wait for the smiles to return?
find the smiles?
weeks ago, i seek my far away friend for help to upgrade my wordpress version cuz it’s damn chim.
he was very very nice to help me with it!
i didnt chase or remind him.
tonight, i was pleasantly surprised with a new blog skin!
he chose it for me.
i kinda like it.
it has bright colours – orange & green
it has cute animated graphics – cute to me.
i may not be a kid anymore but i still have a kid in me.
so spare me, the adult stuff.
i chose to be a ‘kid’ in the virtual world which i called my blog.
these days i have a bad habit.
i’ll be toying with my N5800 on the bed, right before bedtime.
either i’ll play game or i’ll surf youtube.
found this on youtube – Family Guy comics
find this song/dance extremely hilarious.
can you imagine somebody doing this to make you laugh when you are darn angry?
after several months of hibernation @ home.. i finally went out.
this time, i dated just you.
we settled @ A971tokyocafe.
japanese fusion food.
we planned for a no-phone night but failed. hee..
i also realised that we didnt take photo, like we used to, whenever we meet. boooo..
but this date is different.
we were ourselves.
we could have gone to watch Mr Singapore @ Zirca.
but the appeal lost to cheap thrill @ bugis village.
just think of the $10 clothes and 3 for $5 earrings, necklaces,belts .. made us go gaga!
sometimes it’s not about buying branded.
though both of us can afford. haha..
intend to catch a movie but nothing interesting.
moreover, both of us have extremely different taste in movies.
this explains why we nvr watch movies together!
missed a turn to eat rochor beancurd.
so we droveee straight & i screamed “fish dumpling soup & sugarcane drink*
met 2 ex-colleagues for lunch today.
as usual, i was asked “zui jin hao bu hao?”
life for me has been very peaceful. no fun. no excitement. just normal.
i maybe at F1.
i maybe at F1 Rocks.
i maybe at INQ phone launch.
these are all related to work.
the countless tagging on Facebook is scary.
i’m told to
- overhaul my wardrobe.
- dress according to my age.
- chuck hairbands, gold watch and flats away.
now that i give it a good thought, i asked myself “what is the dress code for my age?”
dress like OL? shirt, blouse, skirt, pants and high heels?
perhaps?
maybe?
even if i force myself to dress this way, i think ppl will feel weird about me.
i can try.
i will try.
