*~ Cherindipity Moments ~*

是从什么时候开始
我们俩的距离
便得越来越远
到底是我太多心
还是你真的不够关心

我一直守护着
有你的短短回忆
但为何我还是
渐渐地忘记
抱在你怀里的温暖

我尝试一个人
坚强的努力
但每一次到了深夜里
总会觉得孤单
寂寞地哭泣

你会再次回到我身边
再一次让我感受
在你眼里只看得到我
再一次让我可以
紧紧地握着你的手

如果我能重新选择
我也会选择和你
虽然现在你以走得太远
但我会把我们的回忆
深藏在心底

i had to write this twice ne..
first time it didn't save properly..
not bad ba.. now gotta wait for the mood to kick in.. to add the music..
was feeling so down today.. spent the whole day being a couch potato and finally finished watching "王子变青蛙"
had a good laugh and a good cry.. ^^ just had to write song lyrics..
heh.. ~

heh.. disappeared for a week.. been one tiring one though and i haven't gone out to play..
wondering if feng's still meeting me later.. :P

i finished watching a 16cd korean drama "开朗少女成功记" NICE!! i really like Jang Na Ra.. :P~ hehee.. funny show though... but its been a long time since i felt so.. cannot describe.. ermm.. nourished? emotionally stable.. haha.. mabbe cos i've found another avenue to release all unhappy emotions. :)

work... is crazy! had to take minutes for the first time this week.. long meeting okie.. lasted over 2 days.. but i did minutes for 1 day.. it can get really crazy sometimes...but i'm just glad that november's gonna be the worst period for me.. reckon i gotta OT everyday now.. which i have been last week..

tuition's crazy too.. 5 O'level students... and Os start the week after next.. gotta do weekday night classes too.. dunno.. so worried abt my students.. yesterday GX just freaked out.. cannot remember binomial expansion.. *sweat..* mabbe gotta start NLP with them le.. :P

last night we went groceries shopping at IMM.. wahh.. *tired* but was happy walking around in GIANT scouting for interesting foods.. didn't get my mushrooms though.. i want mushrooms!

no mood to do anything anymore.. still havent signed up for talentquest and impressario.. eeeek! feng, u gotta scream at me ne.. my energy's running out.. 2 holiday's nxt week but gonna be busy busy still!! waahh what's going on! everyone's taking leave and i still gotta go back to work, teach! *hanging in there*

feng asked me out yesterday after work.. its always nice to meet her up.. cos we can just pour everything out.. after dinner and a bit of walking around, we ended up at Mos Burger.. gonna chat a bit more. thinking the atmostphere was nicer outside the building, i found a seat there.. unfortunately.. the minute feng came back with the drinks.. these girls started to light the cigarettes and smoke was just coming straight in my face.. -_-

had half a day of tuition.. and the permutations & combinations & relative velocity are just driving me crazy!!! geez... haha.. then feng called, and asked what time i finished.. cos her music lesson got cancelled. poor girl.. but i was happy to meet up anyways.. except that when i did, i hardly got to talk to her.. busy sms-ing away.. and very unfortunately again.. we were sitting in sakae and i lost control again. funny.. feng think's its a lucky thing that i have such ease in releasing my pain.. but.. i hate to do it.. cos i don't like feeling 可怜... but it does feel better than the having ur heart at your throat.. was lucky though that she was with me tho, else i might have flooded the place ;P

i got home and took a nap.. woke up.. feeling hungry.. hardly ate anything at sakae :(
then suming called.. hehe~ i wish i didnt have night curfews.. would have been pretty nice to meet up my bestfriend tonight.. now im just waiting feel tired so i can go to bed again..
i was really touched, cos she said she's got one of her days off changed to 1st dec.. *hugs* thank you..

yay! family photo.. havent taken one in a long time. :) was out celebrating mummy's bday on wednesday evening.. heh.. went back to this restaurant at a lil' corner of sembawang park. mummy sorta missed that place so yeah.. hehe.. there was only another couple eating, so the waitresses kinda only had to be busy with us.. we got a set dinner for 10 pple cos the menu was promo.. 10 course yeah! we managed to finish 7.5 dishes.. and.. there were just 6 of us.. *very bloated*


i like that there are 3 of us.. maybe thats why i love watching charmed so much too! don't we look like the Charmed sisters? ;D

we took a walk to the beach after dinner.. hmm had a chat with my brother-in-law. i'm glad.. cos i think bing's happy about that. at least i'm on better terms with her husband ever since i started working.. so now she can stop worrying. ^^

so much for our "world class bus service"... i was supposed to meet Kat at 7:15pm.. so rushed off from office at 6:15pm, reached the busstop at abt 6:25pm... and waited.. the first 963 appeared at 6:50pm.. (25 min after i was there) and the bendy bus just left the busstop-full of people behind cos it was packed to the door! luckily the nxt bus (single cabin only!) came at abt 7pm.. woah.. the nxt busstop had like a swarm of people LAH! -_- "kiasu-ism" nvr fails to show even when everyone's squashed and unhappy! this chubby lady with her 3 chubby (understatement) kids decided to stuff themselves right at the front of the bus after deciding there weren't seats at the back. she tried to put all 3 kids on that ledge (where the old transitlink machine used to be) which is right beside the front door.. imagine the JAM she created. 2 guys got up from their seats to let this chubby lady take them but she lost one to another indian lady with 2 kids. well and lots of people got left behind at the busstop.. which would make them have waited more than 30 min..
i dunno why inconsiderate behaviour really makes me mad, plus bad education for the kids!!

anyways, dinner with Kat was good.. hehe we finally caught up since the last time we met in december 2004. haha~ Swensen's was having this catfish promotion.. heh.. and this is me with my catfish baked rice....~

this is Kat and her catfish stew which has no trace of catfish bits.. according to the waiter, according to the cook, the catfish is used to make the stew.. O_o i dun really know how these cooking stuff work.. heh..~

anyways, the sets came with soup/salad, coffee/tea/softdrink and a scoop of Mudpie icecream which wasn't too bad.

the best bit is catching up with Kat.. one of the closest friends i had when i was staying in Hall during school days. Very sweet indonesian girl.. a very silly one too.. and one who's unfortunately younger than me considering we're born in the same yr ;)
we even got to walk around a bit although i was the one that did the buying (necessary stuff okie!) :P well.. Kat got strepsils.. ^^

its a rainy day.. been raining since late morning till now.. makes the mood gloomy..
but i had a good day today.. got up and first thing in the morning, i got on the phone for an hour when everyone else at home was still snoring away.. hehee~ :)
so lets do it systematically (the way Monica Gellar would like it) what has happened in the past few days~

thursday 13th Oct
i finally met up phyllis for the first time since we graduated.. and.. wenxin also been a few months since we last met.. and then feng.. hahaa! was supposed to be girly nite out cos feng wanted to check out Hark Music Cafe (at Prinsep Place). so dilema whenever girls get together.. dinner was decided to be at ichiban boshi (at PS) cos jem gave me a card which we thought i could get a free cali handroll.. but i didnt.. :(
Hark Music Cafe was cool though, cos it was audiences' nite and we get to sing on the small stage to karaoke music. feng did her solo "bai se hun li", and wen and i did "fen shou kuai le" (i'm glad she was willing to sing! *hugs*) the place is cool though i must say.. setting is cosy and i had camomile tea with chocolate fondue.. makes it all the more RELAXING... ^^
and then... Major came~ hahaa wat girly nite la! but at least he helped us take photos :D

friday 14th Oct
for a month, i had booked for Laser Quest at CDANS! and the day had finally arrived. heh..~ i thought we won't get to go anymore cos everyone was like.. sianz.. chris and kahwai had to attend a wake.. poor chris.. bad week for him.. house got broken into.. and then he got news his friend had committed suicide.. coincidence though.. cos susan knew that guy too.. wonder what happened.. its the 3rd guy i've heard (friends' friends or relatives) that has committed suicide this year. scary.. what's happening man.. mabbe its the S.N.A.G thing..

friday 14th Oct - Laser Quest!
yes! luckily tts got everyone to get up to start leaving at 430.. :) i still got to play!! umm deprived i am.. living my childhood only now.. first time at Laser Quest was alot of fun.. although my back really hurt me like crazy.. we had 9 pple.. played 2 rounds.. first in 2 teams.. and that was tiring.. then we did in 3 teams which was SUPER tiring.. i swear my back was broken.. hahaa~ ranked 6th and 7th respectively out of 9..



very lousy.. but alot of fun!~ this is my rank slip.. heh.. the better of the 2..~

friday 14th Oct - JC Table Tennis Team Gathering
another bunch of friends i hadn't hung out with for AGES.. the guys kept making me feel bad abt having to be home by twelve and all.. you know, Cinderella can't help it.. neither can i... but the mood picked up.. dinner at NYDC (which i willingly treated cos im the only one working in the gang.. >_<) was tiring.. noisy.. had to talk at the top of our voices.. -_- but baked rice always works for me..

*rubs tummy*after dinner , we went off to a bar also along Holland Village to drink and chat.. ended up sharing stories, of breakups and get-togethers..

haha.. and this one guilty cocktail was all it took to get me crying. :'( but its nice to know, everyone's still the same.. friends i can count on when i need a shoulder.. or tissue paper.. :P~

saturday 15th Oct
half a day of tuition... :) finally a little more relaxed than the previous weeks where i had 4 classes.. now its just the O'level candidates! they are alot more hardworking than i remember myself to be at their age.. so i must say, i'm proud of them..came home after tuition and turned into a couch potato again.. eating and watching lost/charmed/smallville.. heh.. but i also did my 3rd composition which jem can't seem to comment on.. *disappointed* makes me wonder if its that bad.. worrying too.. :(

mabbe its just the weather.. but i've got a weird craving for ice-cream! and guess what!! my mom just came home with 2 tubs :D chocolate with choc chips, and choc chips.. woohoo!! choc! ;P~

ever reached a point where u're doing stuff but u don't know why you're doing them anymore? i started composing cos i got motivated by jem's music.. then i thought i wanted to get that kind of satisfaction.. now i'm up to the 3rd but pretty much stuck with the same style.. sad stuff.. i know the nice people have heard it and said.. "its nice.." but.. thats it.. whats gonna happen after? *shrug* its like going to work everyday but not knowing whats gonna happen to me after.. >_<
i shall just eat ice-cream on a rainy day :)

cheers~

finally finished reading my Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince....
geez.. no idea how long its gonna take before Book 7 will be done.. -_- sad..
i've already read the spoilers... some think there are evidences that Dumbledore's not dead. I would like to believe that too.. but in case i get too hopeful, i shall try to believe for now that Harry's on his own to find the remaining Horcruxes...

past 2 days was spent at a Mind Transformation course.. hmm.. went through NLP stuff..
was actually looking forward to it cos me've been feeling very low, unmotivated and all..
but.. the course didn't turn out as effective as i hoped it would have been. Or mabbe my subconscience had already blocked everything out. Nevertheless, it was still nice to get to talk to some of the co-workers that i don't directly work with. The best part is knowing i'm still able to get into a very comfortable conversation with someone when i feel like it. Heh.. dunno whether its that i've changed, become more sceptical or i was just fooling around. But i felt like a super mismatcher right from the first day. :P Except my 'suaning' statement at the trainer got thrown back at me cos i was too polite to shoot him down again, feeling sorry that i caused the whole class to laugh at him already once. Decided to keep a lower profile for the subsequent day and a half.. :)

whatever's been bothering me continues to bother me. *sigh* i think i should just accept it to be there. GG's been very nice.. always checking on me. Apparently, my mood is stated on my face now.. can't really hide it huh..

this afternoon, over lunch cos one of the managers was sitting nxt to me. always found him approachable and easy to talk crap with. And cos we were on the topic of kawaii-ne (nickname for kahwai), i just asked him if the boss was serious about the japanese thingie (secret! heh) well.. i expressed my interest.. i hope he takes me seriously.. cos i really wish for a change now. Feng even thinks that i should email him or something.. but its not so simple.. from how he reacted when i told him i was interested. I didnt get to find out more, cos the minute he got onto Japanese actors (hideaki takizawa is cute!!), it went on the korean actors (pak yong har is cute!!).. and movies and tv series.. and everyone started talking.. nah.. not convenient.. ;P
just gonna cross my fingers on this one for now... wish me luck k? cos i know really want this!!

waahh.. so tired.. had tuition from 9am to 730pm.. kinda brain dead already.. but will be able to relax a little since there's just sec 4 O'levels to go now.. *breathe*

been feelin bothered since that night i talked to a friend abt open-mindedness vs being conservative..
Scenario: girl holds boyfriend's hand.. and holds another guy friend's hand with other hand.. is that really normal/acceptable?
i'm starting to wonder if i'm really too conservative.. i felt kinda uncomfortable picturing this.. i guess holding hands is kinda personal for me.. in a relationship.. not that i don't personally have close guys friends, i eat their food, drink their drinks, slap them hard, make them carry my stuff, scream at them (YAH, get screamed at too.. and teased alot and laughed at... -_-" ) but.. nope.. never holding hands... ehh.. really.. does that make me too conservative?? i dun think i could watch my boyfriend hold another girl's hand. hmm but then again that depends why he's holding it. :P weird.. i think im more okay with him holding another girl's hand. so i guess its just how i value hand-holding..

*sigh* this is all too confusing.. just been thinkin abt this a little..
gonna take a break from so much work!! HAH! gotta read my harry potter! oh.. reminds me.. how the guys have nicknames at work now..
TYK became 'GG' (stands for girly guy for having super red lips and feminine features.. hehe)
SJK became 'Shin Shin' (one day, we mentioned SJK's task, and TKC exclaimed "huh? shin shin?" so that's how it stayed with SJK... nope.. JK is no where near shinshin. Its just TKC's very bad hearing.. which is very contagious.. :P)
together.. LLN gave them another nick.. 'The SG Boys' hahaa..
LKW became 'kawaii-ne' (for having a dialect name that was very kawaii-sounding, hehee~)
LKY became henry porner (for being.. umm.. well.. it was also cos i was reading harry potter.. hehee)
our team's growing real big now.. even Ghim Moh market's huge table can't fit us all anymore.. we need 3 cars to go out for lunch.. so Lucy's has become a convenient place to eat nowadays..

6th October (Thurs) - Welcome Lunch
We had lunch at NanBanTei (a yakitori resutoran at far-east). Nice! the OBento set was pretty worth it.. $14.90 with a range of 5 different yakitori. *lick*

7th October (Fri) - Farewell Lunch
Lunch Jack's Place (West Coast Recre Centre) ... farewell for David.. :(
he's been a real help at work since LLN and I got abandoned last yr trying to salvage the situation back then.. he has all these unorthodox methods for solving my coding problems.. and they ALWAYS work! SHEN! Well.. me & LLN like to tease David abt his diet.. its always chicken and potato, and Lemon/Chrysanthemum tea. In fact we picked Jack's Place knowing there must be some chicken set lunch, AND lemon tea.. hehee! but David went and ordered Fish & Chips just so that i won't get the satisfaction from teasing him again.. bleh!
Gonna miss having him around though.. he's fun to tease cos he's always so.. umm.. lifeless, but he actually gets frustrated at me! *curtsey*

A Life Path 5 person is usually very versatile, adventurous, and progressive. With a 5 life path, you are one of those people who is always striving to find answers to the many questions that life poses. You want to be totally unrestrained, as this is the sign of freedom and independence. You abhor routine and boring work, and you are not very good at staying with everyday tasks that must be finished on time. You are, however, a good communicator, and you know how to motivate people around you, perhaps inclining you to be a teacher of some sort. A love of adventure may dominate your life. This may take the form of mental or physical manifestation, but in either case, you thrill to the chance for exploration and blazing new trails. You are apt to be multi-talented, but just as likely to suffer from some lack of direction, and there is often some confusion surrounding your ambition.
On the average, the number 5 personality is rather happy-go-lucky; living for today, and not worrying too much about tomorrow. It is important for you to mix with people of a like mind, and try to avoid those that are too serious and demanding. It is also important for you to find a job that provides thought-provoking tasks rather than routine and redundant responsibilities. You do best dealing with people, but the important thing is that you have the freedom to express yourself at all times. You have an innate ability to think through complex matters and analyze them quickly, but then be off to something new.

In the most negative application or use of the 5 energies, you could become very irresponsible in tasks and decisions concerning your home and business life. The total pursuit of sensation and adventure can result in your becoming self-indulgent and totally unaware of the feelings of those around you. In the worse case situations negative 5's are very undependable and self-serving.
