I don't have a computer to blog with!!!
Yes I know that sounds pathetic but its true ok!! My bro's laptop is spoiled, my shared computer which I'm using now is so freaking laggy it takes 75mins to watch an episode of [How I Met Your Mother] which is like 20mins, and I even tried going to blogger on my phone but it doesn't load. *sigh*
So here I am, testing my patience with this lousy computer, but its actually pretty ok today. I definitely can't load any photos though, will take forever. So I shall not promise to blog about the India trip but I will try k! If no posts about it in 3 months means no posts about it forever!
Congrats to Alifya and Nadeem though! Can't believe one of my girls is married!! Happy for her, scared for myself. LOL.
Other short updates..
Work is good! I will blog more about it another time but I like it coz time passes fast, my colleagues are nice (I have to say this coz they're stalking my blog haha[jk la they're really nice!]) and its FREAKING NEAR MY HOUSE!! Though I always don't go home after work.. Lol. But I miss my Jennie Lee Bao Bao!! Haha. And the other HSBC girls..
I saw JANG GEUN SUK!!! He's freaking hawt la!!!!!!!! Ok I think he deserves an entire post so will blog about that another time too.
Other than that, I'm back at BQ tentatively, I've been clubbing and L4D-ing as usual, don't really have much time for anything else.
Oh ya.. And I've watched almost every movie there is. Hahaha.
Keke, time to sleep soon. *sigh* I hate office hours.
Haha. Night!

the interview
Just came back from an interview. First thing i wanna get off my chest?
THE RECEPTIONIST WAS A TOTAL BITCH!
Ok, maybe she wasn't a bitch to me per se but she was just a bitch in general k! I walked in, smiled at her, told her I was looking for the HR person and she just looked back at me sour-faced(would have been quite pretty if she even gave a semblance of a smile), and took out four sheets of paper, passed them to me WITHOUT SAYING A WORD. I mean, ok la, its common sense that I should fill up the application form but shouldn't she at least tell me out of basic courtesy? God.
So I looked through the four pages and the first 2 were the basic details about yourself. Then I saw the next 2 pages I nearly fainted. One was a plain sheet of paper asking me to "write a paragraph about myself". That I could handle. The other one looked exactly the same but it was in chinese!! And I wasn't sure if the instructions were the same but I assumed they were from what little sense I could make out of it. After I finished filling up everything except the chinese form, I went to the receptionist and asked if I still needed to fill up the chinese form since I filled up the english one. Unfortunately, she said yes.
I spent the next 10 minutes thinking about what I knew how to write in chinese and ended up with one sentence. 我是一个很喜欢跟别人讲话的人. (I just looked for that whole sentence using online pin yin dictionary. My pin yin is actually damn good. If I could've written the description in pin yin I could've written alot more!) Anyway, I know it sucks but at least I attempted SOMETHING right?
Oh ya, one more thing I forgot to mention is that I REALLY wanted the job(coz its damn near my house, haha) thats why I put in so much effort. If it were any other job I would've probably fucked it and handed up a blank sheet of paper.
Anyway, after that was interviewed by the HR and then the project manager AND THEN still made to do a written test but I passed!! The HR exec told me I was shortlisted and would liase with the recruitment agency about the pay. =D
Pray that I get the pay I want k! Will update again soon!! =)
P.S. I know there's a possibility that the bitch in question might one day see this but well, hope not! Lol.

When in Rome..
..do as the Romans do!
Okok, this is actually a Nuffnang movie contest to catch the show.
"An ambitious young New Yorker (Kristen Bell), disillusioned with romance, takes a whirlwind trip to Rome where she defiantly plucks magic coins from a ‘foolish’ fountain of love, inexplicably igniting the passion of an odd group of suitors: a sausage magnate (Danny Devito), a street magician (Jon Heder), an adoring painter (Will Arnett) and a self-admiring model (Dax Shepard). But when a charming reporter (Josh Duhamel) pursues her with equal zest, how will she know if his love is the real thing?"
I think Beth(Kristen Bell) should be with Nick(Josh Duhamel) because..
1. He's hot!
2. He's a reporter, I like that.
3. He's the main actor, he'd end up with her ANYWAY.
And as for the 3 things I want in my partner.. Well, last time when I was younger people would ask me," What kinda guy do you like? " and all I could answer was," Ah Bengs! ". Lol. But as years go by, I now know what I want.
1. Someone who is close/filial to his parents.
2. Someone with a kind heart but a little bit of toughness for that bad boy feel (yes i can't get over the ah bengs totally!)
3. Someone who has a group of close friends just like me. (somehow i just prefer the ones with one group of close friends over the ones with many friends but none are close)
Yup, that would probably the top 3 criteria. Haha.

at the risk of sounding cliche..
Ok, I know I haven't blogged for very long. More on that later.
I went to SGH to visit my friend today. He was shot while in Thailand for military training and his eyesight might be affected. On my way there, while I was there and after I came back, alot of thoughts passed through my head but the one that kept replaying was, "treasure what you have now". And I'm sure all my other friends who were there were thinking the same thing.
But why is it that it takes a mishap for us to think that way? I guess being human, we tend to take things for granted and we only realise how important certain things/people are to us when we are on the verge of losing/have already lost it.
So, stop complaining about how sucky life is and be grateful for the little things we tend to take for granted like bring able to walk and talk freely and having a fully abled body. Treat the people who are close to you the way they are supposed to be treated. Alot of people tend to be more rude to their family members (i'm one of them), simply because we know they love us so much and will never hold it against us. But they deserve better than that, don't they?
Treasure what you have; be it your own well-being or the people around you. And to my friend, hope you get well soon.
Ok, enough sappy talk. Short update.. I know its been a long time since I've blogged and this time I shall not give any excuses. I've been lazy!!! And I can't really say I've been busy with work coz I have not been working for one week already. Haha, yes I've served my notice and am finally out of that hellhole! After me, another 2 girls quit. Lol. So, now I'm slacking/looking for a new job. Of coz been partying alot but money's running low already. *sigh*
Oh ya, also haven't been blogging coz nobody's tagging anymore and if it wasn't for my statistics counter, I'd have thought nobody's reading my blog anymore! Those who read tag leh! Hehe.
K la, gonna sleep soon. TAG ok?!!!

my two new loves
Hey guys, sorry have not blogged for so long again!! Been quite busy with school and projects and partying and drinking. Haha. Just a quick update.. I tendered my resignation!! Damn happy about it la.
Have been hating my job more and more everyday. The people who call in can be the most FUCKING unreasonable people ever lor. Seriously, I really admire those people who can stay in customer service for years. You all should know I don't even really have a temper and yet I can still feel like telling those idiots who call in and complain to fuck off and hang up on them! Its too much negative aura there, I don't like it.
Went for interview at Sisley and going for second interview soon. Yes, back to what I love ; beauty products. Hope the pay will be enough to sustain me!! Okok.. back to my 2 new loves.. Haha..
First one is FT Island!! Of coz a VERY VERY BIG part of why I love them is my yummilicious Lee Hong Ki!!! He's oh-so-freaking-cute! But after watching ALOT of vids of them I kinda like the rest too.. After all, they all have the pretty boy look that korean stars seem to have. 90% probably plastic but still cute! Lol.
And and and.. I heard FT Island is coming back again in March! I was so disappointed last week that I couldn't see them at all so this time I'm gonna save in advance to go to their concert! Hope it doesn't clash with the dates I'm going to India (for alifya's wedding!! more about that another time) and hope my departure dates coincides with theirs so that I can have Hong Ki all to myself in transit!! *dreaming*
Yes yes I'm still stuck in one of those childish fan girl worlds. Tsk. I also can't believe that I'm 25! =x
K la! Second thing is not as exciting now that I've blogged about FT Island. But.. I just did my first overseas online purchase!! Bought 10 items from Forever 21 for $137. HAPPY!!! But also broke. Thank God CNY is coming. Ang pows and gambling! Yay! Haha. Hope I don't get addicted to online shopping though. It takes the joy out of shopping and I will be broke without even leaving my house!
Ok, more updates soon.. Gonna get ready for butter now.. =)

New Year Resolutions with a Twist!
Hah, I'm late in writing this entry which already broke one resolution; stop procrastinating! And just by writing this entry I'm breaking another resolution; to sleep early! Damn. Why am I even blogging this entry again? Lol.
ANYWAY. You know how people say that resolutions should not be done 'coz you usually just stick to it for the first quarter of the year, and if you really wanna make a resolution you can do so anytime?
Well, I like to do it at New Year 'coz if I fail, there's always some buffer time before I start trying again.. BUT! I will not fail this time 'coz I'm gonna make a whole list of resolutions with at least one I know I can keep!
*Deep breaths* Here goes..
1. I will quit smoking. In 6 months.
I have been trying to quit smoking since I started. Haha. And I've read up so much on quitting one thing I know is you have to do it slowly. So for starters, I'm gonna cut down.. Last year I quit for the first 10 days and then started again. This year I have been cutting down alot!! I only smoke one pack in like 3-4 days now. Partly 'coz there's no time to smoke during my 'new' job! Next month I'm gonna smoke one pack in 7 days, 2 weeks in March, 3 weeks in April and May.. And by June I would've quit!! *Fingers crossed* Anyway I already have a pact with my brother to pay him $10 for every stick I smoke in front of him.. Maybe I should open that offer to everyone? Lol. Don't you just wish?
2. I will sleep earlier.
This is one of my saddest resolutions. As much as I hate it, I AM getting old. I actually feel tired if I don't sleep for a day! *sigh* The horror. So, to ensure my health and skin does not get any worse, I will TRY to sleep before 1am everyday. *sobz* By the way everyday meaning Sun-Thurs. =D
3. I will go to the gym twice a week!
Once I actually make payment for my membership. =x I must go la if not so wasted lor!!
4. I will stop liking younger guys.
As alot of my friends have advised. I suddenly see the reasoning behind it. This is one resolution I am quite sure I can keep. Oh ya, Lee Hong Ki not counted ok! And all the other celebrities.. Hehe. =X God. I am so childish!!! Which brings me to..
5. I will act my age.
Also another resolution I am sad about. And this is one I really find hard to keep! Hahaha. But by acting my age I mean be more responsible and stop procrastinating.
Ok, I feel depressed already. Lol. Yup, thats it.. All I have to do is keep one resolution and I would have proved those people-who-say-resolutions-are-BS wrong!
1am. Time to sleep!! =D
P.S. I sooooo wanted to go Supperclub tonight!!! Free flow of Baileys, apple shots, lychee martinis and JAGERBOMBS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Which other club gives free flow of Jagerbombs?!! None I tell you!! None!! =(
Ok, night! =)

hot!!!!!!!!!!! x3
Ok, short post on why I haven't been blogging much..
3 reasons.
HOT.
A.N.JELL!!!
3 reasons.
HOT.
HOT.
HOT.
That's Jang Geum Suk, Jung Yong Hwa and Lee Hong Ki and together they make up..
A.N.JELL!!!
It's actually a fictional boy band from the uber awesome korean show [You're Beautiful]! And the 4th member is actually a girl, which is what the show is all about. *sigh*
My personal favourite? Initially it was..
Lee Hong Ki from F.T.Island as the oh-so-cute and lovable JEREMY!!! He looks kinda Ah Beng also, so me right?!
But then Tae Kyung(JGS) is so typical bad boy but sweet.. ALSO the kind I like! And Shin Woo(JYH) is super super sweet in the show.. The kind you can never find in real life.. *sigh*
So I've decided that I want all 3!! Gonna save money then go Korea to stalk them! Haha.. I know I'm mad.
In the meantime, shall just stalk them online.
an-nyung~

sometimes..
you know how i love clubbing and won't give it up for anyone? you know how much i love my freedom now that i'm single? you know how much i enjoy being able to go out with anyone at anytime?
sometimes, just SOMETIMES, i wish there was someone who could make me give up clubbing. sometimes i wish there was someone who would be all possessive and quarrel with me. sometimes i wish there was just that one person i know i'll be spending the days with.
alcohol makes me emo. ccombine that with the christmas-sy weather and i just feel like cosying up to someone.
i just don't know who.

my very first dinner and dance!!
Firstly, I think I can't keep up with the one tag one post thing coz I'm too lazy so two tags one post k! Be nice and tag more la. =D
Anyway, I realised that the HSBC Insurance D&D which I went for last week was really the first one I went to. Prudential one not really counted coz I had to pay for it myself, Nuance-Watson one was held at Shangri-la The Line in the afternoon so also not counted (though it was freaking awesome!) and I don't remember SaSa ever having a D&D. Probably coz I was a part-timer?
So, I was soooo excited about the first ever REAL D&D that I was going to! Somemore they had a theme! Masquerade! And they even provided masks for us!! How cool is that? This is what I totally love about working in a big company.
As usual, I planned to do alot of things to prepare for it but in the end I overslept and rushed through my preparations. Hehe. But it all turned out quite well la. Shall let the pictures do the talking.
Took a cab down with Jennie and this is the scene we were greeted with..
Haha.. Was so surprised to see her there! SHE was the photog that day. And I heard she only got paid $50, not from my company but from the studio who hired her. But she looked cool la! Haha. And the door gifts were Robinsons vouchers!!!! There were $50, $80 and $100 in the form of lucky draw but we were late so only the $50 ones were left. Sad.
The surprising thing was, not many people wore the masks! I only wore it to take the picture and get into the feel. Haha.
The place was smaller than I expected, probably around 15 tables? I though it'd be like 25 or 30. Haha.
Raffles Hotel 
I took a photo of the menu coz I was afraid I'd forget the dishes! And true enough I more or less forgot. I think I didn't take a few of the dishes as I was too busy eating. Haha.
Eight Harmony Treasures
Double Boiled Winter Melon Soup with Chicken and Mushrooms
I forgot to take photos of the prawns and only remembered to take the fish's bones. After that was broccoli with crabmeat gravy that I also forgot to take. Hee. Was too engrossed watching the stage activities which I also forgot to take. There was a lucky draw (only for permanent staff I'm contract!), games and also the best dressed award.
Slow Braised Eight Treasures Duck with Chestnuts
Special Fragrant Fried Rice wrapped in Lotus Leaf
Angie was damn high as well. Haha. I drank red and white wine and beer so was DAMN red, but wasn't high. But by the time I reached by bro's chalet my head was hurting like a bitch and all I wanted to do was sleep. But then Eric they all came and I had to wake up and play poker. One of the few times I won. =D

Double Boiled Winter Melon Soup with Chicken and MushroomsNo sharks fin! Boo! Haha. Probably coz my dear manager who's in the committee is against eating that.

Slow Braised Eight Treasures Duck with ChestnutsWhats with them and eight ah?! Is it some chinese thing I dunno about? Oh wait, wait, is it the eight is luck bullshit? Coz I know that SEVEN is the number which rocks. =D
Special Fragrant Fried Rice wrapped in Lotus LeafAnd then they started playing the music and I pulled everyone to go dance! Fun fun~ Music was retro.. Very not me. But still fun! Steph was so high on wine and started kissing all the girls one by one! Lol.
Angie was damn high as well. Haha. I drank red and white wine and beer so was DAMN red, but wasn't high. But by the time I reached by bro's chalet my head was hurting like a bitch and all I wanted to do was sleep. But then Eric they all came and I had to wake up and play poker. One of the few times I won. =DK la more posts soon, its waaaaaaaaaay past my new bedtime.

And the results are..
..aching legs, lack of sleep, tanner(!!!) skin and did I mention ACHING legs?! But I guess thats not the results you're interested in seeing..
Honestly, my timing sucks so bad that I should be ashamed to even put the results up but who cares? I definately don't!
I just think its cool that a piece of orange paper recorded my run timing!

What? At least I wasn't last! (Though I can't be sure how many people exactly there were, I know there were DEFINATELY people behind me!) =D
one of the most tiring days of my life
I shall keep my promise and blog for every comment I get.. But I'm so freaking tired! And I still have to blog TWO posts?! Owe you all one la ah! Hee.
Anyway, I MADE IT for the Nike Run!! So freaking proud of myself man! Slept for one hour and went.
Massage tents? I'm not very sure if people had to pay for this; I thought it was free but if it were then there'd be a fucking long queue and there wasn't, even after the run. Maybe its just some muscle relief thing only for injured people. (Checked. It WAS free massages! Damn.)
Free fruits and drinks! I was telling Jace she should just do her fav past time there. Just stand there and get free flow! LOL. Only 100 plus and water though.. But NEVER in my life have I loved 100 plus so much!!!
That small little orange paper thingy actually tells me my running time!! Cool or what?! I was just so amazed by everything..
Looking happy and excited but actually feeling crappy coz I slept so little and full coz I drank two glasses of milk thinking it would give me energy, only to realise it just makes me full. -.- 
DRINKS! Then we started running like dogs who haven't drank for ages! Other than that we just talked and laughed and did silly things like..

The sea of red that greeted me when I reached there. So amazing la. Apparently 10000 people went according to Nike website, but I dunno if they meant the whole world or only Singapore coz although its a lot of red, it doesn't look like 10000 to me! (Ok, I just checked.. It was really 10000 JUST in Singapore! Cool!!)

After 600m, I told Jace I wanna turn back and go home. LOL! Started to feel cramps and all.. After 2km, started to walk. And from there onwards, it was mostly walking.. Till we see our motivation!!!
DRINKS! Then we started running like dogs who haven't drank for ages! Other than that we just talked and laughed and did silly things like..
..Try to knock down all cups with one cup! LOL. Silly but fun.
My fav number!! I felt quite idiotic standing there taking pictures while everyone else was running in my direction, hence the non pose. But after that we saw two other girls taking photos as well so didn't feel like we were the only ones who could camwhore anywhere and everywhere!
Yay 9km! I loved reading the words on the board. All so inspiring and cute! Unlike the scary volunteers who kept screaming at us to 'jia you' and 'hurry up'.. They were intimidating! I purposely started walking whenever I was going to reach them so that I'd have the energy to run when they scream at me. =x If I was really shagged I might've punched them, or say what another girl said to them sarcastically," You come and join us run la!" But then again, most of them were nice and friendly.
Finally!! By that time my legs felt like jelly and I REALLY thought I was gonna sprain my ankle. Haha. When we reached the finish line they gave us a can of 100 plus (I think I drank at least one litre of 100 plus that day!) and a Nike Finisher wrist band, nothing fancy la. There was a concert but it was almost over by the time we finished. Lol. I just found my results online but will blog about that tomorrow..
We did it!! =D

RUN!
Ok, I decided to blog 2 posts at one go.. AND Jace is gonna kill me coz I officially have to wake up in like an hour's time for the Nike Run! YES I'm going for the NIKE TEN KM run. (Or maybe not, if I wake up and it's over.)
Jace tricked me into going! She said everyone's going and apparently everyone is Gary, her sis and her. Sigh. But anyway, it'll be an experience! Plus I paid for it already, so ya, anyone who sees this in one hour please call me! If nobody calls me it won't be my fault if I miss it. =x
I'm so tired la! Now its the same old question. Should I sleep or stay up? I might faint during the run if I stay up though.. And I'm super shagged! So, I guess..
goodnight.

The dance floor! What I love about it? Platform right in the centre!! ;PThe Drinks
