Break Time

At this very moment i am actually in the office taking my lunch break. The offical time for our break is from 12.15 to 1pm. However for this company their culture is fairly different from the previous company that i have worked for. They pack their lunchies from the canteen and bring it back to the office to eat, there are no mingling between colleagues from another department and there are basically no life at all. My lifestyle has changed dramatically from a person who is so outgoing and enjoys talking to people to a person who hardly speak a few words a day to the surrounding wood blocks. People here are unbelieveable, they can keep most of their time to themselves and all they do is just isolating themselves in their own world. Even if you are to wave crasily and asking for help, i believe they might be quite reluctant to come by to assist you. Most importantly, people here are people who are literally stuck here for their entire life. It WOULD NOT be a surprise to come across people who worked for more than 24 years in this company. Is really GOD BLESS ME !!!!!!!!!!

A Home for a Homeless Chicken

On Saturaday morning, i recieved a phone call from a company which i have been through 2 rounds of interview. First thing for the HR to ask me was:" you want good news or bad news?" Of course i will go for bad news first. He continue with:" well, in fact there are no bad news but only good news."~~ LAME~~ However, it was worth the price of having a few mins of a LAME event since i was offered a job!!!!
As mention above, home for a Homeless chicken had given me the sense of belonging. Searching in the mist for a home had felt like forever, so for now i can finally sit back and relax a bit from those tension. This new job will indicate a new beginning for a new chapter in my life.

"Those of us with water in our personalities don't pick where we flow to. All we can do is flow where the landscape of our lives carries us."

Help! Help! anyone there please Help me i am drowning....PLEASE!!
Alicia! Alicia! is that you.... quick give me your hand!
Someone's here for me, someone heard my cry, someone's here to save me from death. With the last hope in me, I gather all of my strength, force my weight against the gravity and struggle my way up to the surface.
There! I reached out my hand towards the trail of voice........ but no ones there.
I thought i heard a voice, i thought i am going to survive, i thought....... its all my own imagination.
Slowly without further struggle, i let go...let go of all the hope and will...allowing the ocean to take me in as part of them.

I came from a humble family, with 2 old folks working day through day and night trying to make ends meet. I work my life through the same way, no celebration of christmas eve, no time for hugging during mother's day, no time for moon viewing during mid autumn festival...
During my schooling days, i wake up at 5 to get myself ready to go to school and when i reached home others might have taken their shower or dinner. When i started working, my life was not that easy, i had to go through the rush hour at the custom in the morning to get to work and rush my way back after a hectic day at work. I slept rarely more than 6 hrs each day. I still remember there were many times where i walk my way from Kranji to Malaysia custom with tears flowing down from the corner of my eye. Thinking where do i have to go through this shitty life. Yes, with all these at that point of time, i wonder why can't i be abit more fortunate , why can't i have a more smooth sailing life. Finally, my luck came i was given a chance to go oversea to study. Those days were the best, despite my expenses were tigher than some others but i thought that those were the best days of my life. When you thought that the worst is over......your wrong!
My sail was the roughest since i am back from NZ........ from the worst break up, worst job, worst economic crisis, worst job hunting period, worst temp job and the worst family disappointment. This time i have finally reached the bottom of the pool.... waiting for time to consume me completely.

Bloody Hell !!!!

As i woke up this morning. I was thinking well its time to update my blog, so i took out my camera and started transfering my photos. BUT............ it wouldn't work, despite the numerous attempts it just wouldn't work. Due to some unexplainable reasons, unsure if it is some kinda incompatibility, my computer will ended up jammed dead the moment i try to load in my photos. This really piss me off !!!!!!!

The only thing i can do right now is to try and transfer my photos into my desktop. For that it will probably take another week before i can start loading in new photos.

Qing Ming Festival

Trying to be mysterious!!!
My sister and me

We love chewy gum......Our family gathering!!!
Every once a year we will have to come across "Qing Ming Jie". For most of the people when you mention anything that is related to death or tomb, naturally it brings out the goosebumps or the creeps in most people. Initially i had the exact same reaction but with time ironically i had grown to like it. In our family especially for my mom's side, since young between cousins we are closely bonded. Nevertheless for mom and her siblings they are forever there for each other through thick and thin. They will always come out with all sort of reasons to gather everyone together for a catch up and the venue will either be at my place, my aunt's place or my uncle's place. Each time we meet up, for the younger ones like us we will mingle around trying to update each other on our latest happenings whereas for the older generation, they will form their older gang and will spend most of their time reminiscing the older days or discussion on how bad the economic is right now. And, not forgetting the 2007 generation they will be running around the house while their parents following closely behind them. This year my uncle had came up with a new idea, his suggested that from next year onwards after "Qing Ming" we will all set off to a restaurant to have our lunch before all of us head back home. *In addition, the bill will be on him* ~see that is why i like it!

Sometime you never know how much you misses your friends until you met them. Its been a long time since i met up with my girls and when we finally did there was a sudden urge of tears when i realised how much i actually misses them. We have been friends since Poly time and we have been through some rough times together so if you were to ask me if they are special? My answer will be YES... they are just 2 great souls whom i am proud to have, they have been there for me when i was at my lowest and despite the beauty from outside, they are equally beautiful from the inside. *gals sorry for constantly delaying our appointment but i love you all*
Recently it is also a mini NZ gathering for friends that i made in NZ. Coincidently everyone seems to gather in Singapore and form a mini NZ here. The funny thing is when i first left NZ i told myself it will be the last time we will see each other. But who knows with the twist of fate we are back together again and even though we are now in Singapore but as we spend more time together those "NZ days" memories came alive. There was once a phrase that says:" the greatest memories are not the ones you left behind but the new ones you create."
