what i learn and what i hate...

it's been exactly the 7th day of work for me... yeah baby....7th day... sounds very short but yet feels very long alrd...
honestly, this whole working thing is not as good as it seems... haha... but actually i learn something too. Let's start from the negative... what i hate from work so far...

1. the ultimate stress causing is the phone calls... unfortunately, one of my duty at work is as an operator... so most of the times call will go thru' me or if nobody answers the call it will get directed to me...
at first, i really dreaded having to answer phone calls because i may not know how to tackle the queries since i was still new and didnt know much about how everything goes... but now that i get a bit more familiar with things... what bother me most is actually the phone ring... sometimes at the "peak" hour... the phone just cant seem to stop ringing.... i think people shld really ban phones sometimes... too much of it just gets you frustrated and irritated coz u just cant seem to get on with things that you are doing just because the phone ring keeps on pressing you to answer to it.

2. my day feels so short... somehow... when you go to school, however busy u are, you still feel that the day s longer... maybe it's be coz u have to listen to those boring lectures... haha... at least during lecture you still got to sit next to your friend and talkcock when "necessary"
but when you work... it seems that 24 hours is just never enough...
lemme do the math for you:
wake up and get ready at 6 am
leave hostel at 6.45 am
reach office at 8 am
finish work and reach back hostel at 6 pm plus...
total time = 12 hours...

so, literally i'm left with 12 hours.... from the 12 hours, minus 6 or 7 hours for me to sleep..
that leaves me with 5 or 6 hours... that may sound like a lot.... but really, it's never enough....

3. the people... honestly i think my supervisors-or wadever you called it- are nice people and they very patiently teach me every small thing.... but stilllll.... i dun feel as carefree as i can be anymore... haha... you will still think of them as your superior and cant afford to slacken...
the most awkward thing is that when we eat lunch together, nobody really chitchat.. ah.. boring people!!!

okay, may be all you hear so far from me has been all bad things about work...
yeah... but who doesnt complain abt work... after awhile, it gets mundane and too familiar and all you look forward to is THE WEEKEND!!!....

okay lah.. i do learn some stuff from work... i mean, when you do it everyday, you naturally pick up those skills...
like i said before, i was quite afraid of answering the phone before... but now, i learn how to tackle people's queries and questions and make sure that my point gets across.. altho it seems trivial but i feel that it is quite different from talking to people face to face where you can see the person's expression and body language...
hahah seems like i've been a bit too crappy here...

yeah... and tmrw is weekend already.... i mean friday... friday is a weekend too rite???
buttt result is out tmrw!!! huhuhu... getting a bit nervous....

hope i wont fall asleep again @ work tmrw... haha
nowadays i've been a good girl who never stay up at night until too late.... hehehe

ciaoooo wish me luck!!!

CN2125 revisited...

okay, the title of this post maybe a bit confusing for some, intimidating for some..
for those who doesnt know, CN2125 is a module that I took last semeseter... and it includes a heat exchanger design project...
yesterday we had our group dinner cum farewell to christiane, a german exchange girl in our group.

We had our dinner at Annalakshmi. Yes, from the name you can guess that it is an indian restaurant. apparently it is one of the famous Indian restaurant in Singapore. The concept of the restaurant is "Eat as much as you want, and pay as much as you think you shld"... not in exact phrasing but yeah... you get wad i mean... it is a restaurant for charity basically...

this is my first time eating in a vegetarian restaurant and first time eating in Indian restaurant. I am not a very adventurous person in terms of food, especially Indian food becoz i'm not too used to their rich spices and colourful cuisines...
butttt... this virgin experience at Annalakshmi retaurant was quite interesting coz I managed to try different kinds of Indian Bread... cahpati, nan, and i dunno wad else... haha can't really rmb.. but there is one that i really like... i oso dunno the name, but we nicknamed it "Spaceship".
Basically it's just like a dough which rise to give a ball shape... the slight milky taste was really tasty and I like it plain...

other than the breads, we also ordered different kind of curries.. red, orange, green... so rich in color... supposedly they are different but to me they taste just the same... only different filling....

oh ya, we also ordered the yoghurt.... I had the mango flavor one... but i like the Annalakshmi lassi (the name for the yoghurt drink) which had a bit of honey and orange taste and some other things... it was really nice..
one of us decided to be more adventurous and ordered a drink called Jeer Moor or something like that... it was really an "Acquired taste"... a "unique" taste to all of us... haha..
but in the end we managed to gulp it down... (each one take a sip...=))

my personal favourite of the day was a dish called Bhagi which is just vegetable fritter... haha...

Before i tried Annalakshmi, i never thought that I can appreciate Indian food, left alone vegetarian Indian food. but Annalakshmi is a really not bad place to try...

Tresure hunter...

this is the first weekend after i started working...
honestly i'm kinda nervous to face wad's going to happen on monday... coz the person whom i'm going to take over will not be there anymore... so i'll be on my own from monday onwards. Just hope that things will go on smoothly.
i'm just very scared of screwing up... jiayou!!!

ok, it's weekend now, and let's forget abt working for a while...

in this post, i just wanna share abt a taiwanese show that i am watching... actually have been watching for quite sometime.... called "Treasure hunter"... yes, cheesy as it sounds... it is really a game show... i have been a fan of taiwanese game shows because of the creative games.... actually many of the orientation games played in school are usually a copycat of wad i saw on the shows....

there are these few episodes of the show that i really liked and just watched today....
will just post some of the links here...

Why I like these episodes?? becozzz...They were set in Bali!!! yay!! have been wanting to revisit Bali. The first time i went to Bali when i was in primary school... and obviously at that time still dunno anything abt playing in the sea on that sort of things.... through this show, i can see wad's in store for visitors in Bali... of course the beautiful beach and the exciting water sports, water boom (water theme park.... i just knew that have one there!!), submarine, the luxurious hotel and last but not least bungee jumping... For that last one, i dun mean that i want to try.... put in one of the episode, there was quite a touching part lol.... just watch if you want to know...

hm... i will continue watching now...

ciaooo

glorious glorious day....

oh man!!!
i cant describe how happy i was a few minutes ago...
i just received a call from a company that is offering me a temporary job... hahah
it may not sound exceptionally glorious... but for me it is...
i've been looking for jobs for the past 1 week or so...
and everyone else has already got a job.. internship or part time...
so i've been feeling kinda lonely in pgp, especially in the afternoon...
worse still... i feel super useless for doing nothing and just spending off my parents' money.. haha dun like to be parasite... so old alrd still a parasite... haiyo...

that's why i feel extremely excited when the person called me just now...
thanks to josh who recommended me the job... i met him unexpectedly in pgp canteen and just casually asked him for any lobang in his company... and he was nice enough to still remember it and refer me to one...

this company is like the only company that contacted me out of so many that i applied to...
but yeah it's okay.... the pay is also not bad!! so i shall give it my best try...

btw, did i say that my first day of work is tmrw!! early morning again!!! hahah

ok...shall blog more abt my first day tmrw... hahah

ciao...wish me luck!!!

Tioman Part 2

As promise... here we are... continuation to my Tioman story...

so.. the 2nd day at tioman was really exciting...
we went SNORKLING!!! yeah, it was my first time trying and it was really fun.
Altough it is possible to snorkle without knowing how to swim, it is still kinda scary at first.... i have to cling on to ppl in order to feel a sense of security... though i had my lifevest on... feels quite bad to trouble the rest...=P

actually we had a more extended plan for the day with trekking, snorkling n fish feeding, but due to unfavourable weather, we had to give treking a miss...

so we had our lifevests, goggles and of course SUNBLOCK!... and ready to go.
we took a small motorboat, just the 6 of us and the "captain"....head off to our 1st stop which is the fish feeding area....It was a very bumpy ride to our first stop... yeah, u read correctly. It's bumpy coz of the waves...haha

Honestly, i kinda freaked out in the beginning when the person asked us to just get into the water without really having a proper demonstration and all that.. but he did briefed us on wad to do... but for someone like me who dunno how to swim n have no confidence in water, i felt quite insecure...
but in the end, i got into the water... swim with the fish and drink a bit of seawater in the process... some ppl even got bitten by the hungry fish...a good warm up before the actual snorkling...

then, we moved on to coral island. during the ride to coral island, we could alrd notice the change in weather, the wind got slightly stronger... but we still went on with the plan...
this is when the excitement really came.. haha
before we got into the water, the captain warned us about a whole lots of things... like dun get too far, dun go to the rock and cant rmb wad else...

then.... the wave started to get stronger, and before i really had time to calm myself down and enjoy the scene below... we all felt that we get further and further away from our boat... of course our first reaction was to push forward against the current to get back....
the current drifted us quite a far distance and our effort was totally useless... so we called for help from the captain to pick us up...
it took us a while before he came and responded to us... fiuhhhh

When we got back on the boat, the captain told us to not panic in that kind of situation, just follow the current and he will pick us up... hahaha... but wad to do... all first timers...
if i were to recall the situation at that time, it was really kinda scary but at the same time funny...haha

then we move to another spot and give it another try... and yes, this time round, we were much calmer and got to enjoy the beautiful corals and colorful fishes... it was such a waste that none of us got any disposable underwater camera...
here are some of the pictures taken while we were floating around...

before the dive, still dry ...

refreshing! happy!

it was good!! yeah!!

After having enough of snorkling, we got back to the shore and play...
the rest of the day can be summarised as "Camwhoring"...
we took dunno how many stupid, act cool, silly and some embarassing pictures... but yeah... when else will you have the excuse to camwhore so much... hahah

"just got back from snorkling"

Apply sunblock oso must take picts.. oooppss Narcism in progress

I like this picture... the true meaning of happiness!

Haiyah.. how come cannot jump higher leh...

Evidence that "Guys love to camwhore too!!"

Those are some of the highlights of the day....

Day 3 in Tioman was very short... most of the time was spent on the ferry and bus... very tiring but fun indeed. and guess wad, on our minibus, we met another 6 NUS ppl oso... haha... Actually the bus is just for 12 ppl. yah, so the whole bus is full of NUS ppl except for the driver.. hahah...

yup, overall this trip is very very fun... i got to try many things that i havent got the chance to do before... maybe it's becoz i went with friends then have more courage to try on these things... maybe if i go with parents they may not allow me to snorkle knowing that i dont know how to swim....

so where's the next stop???

haha

Tioman Island...

yep, i need to brag a bit in this post...
I went to Tioman from 9-11 May 2008...

at first when david n dipta was asking me to go for the trip, i wasnt particularly very excited to go coz i really dont know what to expect and dunno what is interesting there... then, they referred me to a website... http://www.discoverytours.com.sg/ and i begin to learn wad is interesting there...

yeah, i realised that most of the activities there are water related, which brings me another dilemma coz i dunno how to swim... but after many ppl assured me that u dun need to know how to swim to snorkle, then i agreed to go...

the journey starts on 9 May 2008 really early in the morning... took bus from Golden Mile complex to Tanjung Gemok....


the busride was kinda bumpy and the driver was kinda haphazard, i bumped my head to the window a few times as i was sleeping along the way... but luckily we arrived at Tanjung Gemok safely and was just on time for the ferry ride...

Talking abt ferry...it was super colddd!! we spend most of our time playing stupid games and of course not to forget our camwhoring session... the pictures taken on the deck of the ferry was nice... "i love outdoor lighting"... but my hair covers my face in most of the picts... sigh... it's okay, that way it looks much more natural...



when we arrived at the hotel...we were pretty amazed by it.. we were expecting something less grand than wad we saw... yup, the hotel was great...



after checking in and all that, we decided to be more adventurous and make the most out of our money... we went to a nearby beach to play and take picts....
but, out of our expectation, the sky turned rather dark... but we still brave ourselves to make our way to the beach..
lemme explain in a bit more details...
we walked past a group of monkiess hiding under the leaves, apparently trying to hide
then we tresspassed a golf course to get to the beach...
we managed to take 2 or 3 pictures before suddenly the sky really turns very very dark and we saw thunderstorm coming, wind blowing so hard that angita almost got flown away... omg! it was really scary at that moment that we "esp the girls" just ran all the way back to the main road... really din noe how we managed to ran so fast for such a long distance...must be the adrenalin rush....
luckily we managed to get back to to our hotel before the rain got really heavy...
fiuh... that was very scary... but maybe something to brag about hehe...
here are some of the pictures that we managed to take before all the saga begins




the rest of the first day was spent playing more n more games and eating BBQ buffet...


will continue on with the story of the 2nd day at tioman on the next post... this post too long alrd...
and i wanna sleep alrd... need to start looking for part time job tmrw...
hopefully i will get something worthwhile doing yeah...

PInK and bLacK..

yeah now that holiday is here, we have more things to blog, dont we? hahaha

okay, let's start from PINUS 08/09 exco first event...
PINK and BLACK seniors' BBQ...

Me, dipta n Milo was the so called "organisers"...kena sabo coz we ended exam earlier...haha...but it was a fun experience working with them...

oltho the event was good as a whole...but i think a lot of the ppl must be complaining abt the venue.... so so so sorry for our shortsightedness...
we forgot to consider that weekdays dun have public bus that will take ppl into the park.. in the end, must walk damn far in....and damn far out...

wad makes the event interesting is actually the theme itself...tho' it's just a random idea that came to our mind...PINK and Black... --> think the dress code...

Honestly speaking, in dun get to really enjoy the event itself coz was too occupied with planning and ensuring that the whole event goes smoothly... but yeah, it was all worth it...
and at the end of the day, some of us got drenched due to the sudden pouring...blerrghhh

here are some of the picts taken that nite...

Greatest achievement of the day...

Now that exam is over... yay!!!
i have all the time in the world to catch up on everything that i've missed out during the mugging period...

Nice food... check
Nice Movie...check (Ironman is super uber cool!!!)
shopping... not really in the mood... which is a good way to save money...

but the greatest achievement for today is that i managed to put on contact lense already....though it still took very long... At last I managed to overcome fear of touching my own eyeball.. not totally yet though, still fighting so hard not to blink when i'm not supposed to...

FYI, abt 3 years ago, before VJ prom nite, I wanted to put on the contact lense oso but with no avail... i spent 1 hour in front of the attitude problem lady who just dun have the patience to teach me how to wear it... at the end of the day, all i get is just a red eye and bad mood..

but this time round is different, the uncle who sold the contact lense was really patient and encouraging...Though i spend the same amount of time at the shop (1 hour), but at the end of that 1 hour i managed to put in the contact lense to my left eye... i dunno why my right eye is super duper stubborn.... super hard to get in and once it got in, super duper hard to take out...

Must oso thank yeanching who were accompanying my to test the contact lense though she was waiting for her bus back to klang... i think without her encouragement i will be too scared to do it... haha

Now i realised, determination is all it takes to make the "impossible" possible

Then tonite, was out celebrating Daniel's and sze chao's early birthday...
It was very nice of them to treat us dinner and drinks at Pump room@clarke quay.... nice place with great live band...

okie...time to sleep so i can settle wadever i need to settle tmrw...

Yay! looking forward to tioman trip this friday....

=)

Girls' coffee

just heard this nice song from the radio...
yes, it's a chinese song and i love to listen to chinese songs while studying...



basically i keep hearing this song playing on the background when the Dj was talking and find this song very meaningful...
The title is 女人们的咖啡 Nv Ren Men De Ka Fei - which means Girls' coffee
I said that it's meaningful because it talks about girls' friendship...
i dun really understand the entire lyrics but roughly it talks about how only girl can understand girl best...
especially besties... whom you can pour out to and confide in...

the chorus goes like this...
男人总不懂女人眼泪真实的意义
女人猜不透男人忽然沉默的背景
有时候爱情
不如和你喝咖啡有趣
-for the benefit of those who cant read chinese- i shall translate a bit
it roughly means:
guys dun really understand the true meaning of girls' tears
girls cant really figure out what is behind a guy's quietness
sometimes love life
is not as interesting as having coffee with you...

it's really the literal translation...*i used dictionary to check up the meaning of some of the words too...=P* as tho i got so much time to waste...

here's the complete lyrics
一壶成套式两人分的咖啡呀
一屋子芬芳气息
两个女人见到话题永远不停

Oh关于男人关于女人和自己
整个世界都要整理
有时候只有跟你说才有头绪

男人总不懂女人眼泪真实的意义
女人猜不透男人忽然沉默的背景
有时候爱情
不如和你喝咖啡有趣

过去的事情想早点忘记却爱回忆
下一段恋曲却又怕再伤心
我们总聊聊互相的安慰
彼此打气

信用卡可以买到一季的流行
却买不到真实自己
只有听你说的分析深入我心

就算是小小的竞争或是在斗气
这一切都不是问题
用一杯咖啡的时间都能搞定

男人总不懂女人眼泪真实的意义
女人猜不透男人忽然沉默的背景
有时候爱情
不如和你喝咖啡有趣

过去的事情想早点忘记却爱回忆
下一段恋曲却又怕再伤心
我们总聊聊互相的安慰
彼此打气

下次见面拿杯咖啡
时间地点先定
下次见面那些事情
没话说我听你

男人总不懂女人眼泪真实的意义
女人猜不透男人忽然沉默的背景
有时候爱情
不如和你喝咖啡有趣

男人总不懂女人眼泪真实的意义
女人猜不透男人忽然沉默的背景
有时候爱情
不如和你喝咖啡有趣

过去的事情想早点忘记却爱回忆
下一段恋曲却又怕再伤心
我们总聊聊互相的安慰
彼此打气

Enjoy!

First day of exam!!

Jiayou!!! wont let myself down...
i'll try my very best and see how later!!! huahhahahha...

impulse impulse...

today...
6 pm plus, me n yc sitting at biz cateen "enjoying" our dinner before planning to go back to biz lib to mug...
then we were talking and complaining how our life sucks with all this sucky mugging schedule....
then suddenly yc said,
"I want something that makes me happy!"
then out of nowhere...i just blurted out
"i noe wad can make u happy, ...shopping!!!"

then there we go...instead of spending our nite in the library, we decided to go vivo..the closest hang out place to NUS....
we spent so long browsing and trying clothes at the stretch of shop, from zara, pull and bear, esprit, forever 21 and dozens more...hahha
end up, yc got something that she's been looking for....a black cardigans...from pull and bear...
so sad i cant get anything that i want...
actually i did see something that i really really like.... a half jacket (is that wad u call it? the short version of jacket...) green colour...the army kinda green. I think it's very stylo... it;s the kind that i've been looking for for so long... but as a matter of fact i dun really need it lah...
and summore it's 50 bucks... slightly over my budget today though i think it's very worth it for such a nice jacket...
feels really tempted to just buy it on the spot.... but luckily yc still brought me to my senses, not to splurge on something that is not so urgent...hahha
but i still made a vow to come back to the shop (samuel n kelvin) after my exam ends....if the jacket is still there (and may be there will be discounts...hahah...*hopeful hopeful)... then i will just splurge my money on that jacket.... haha...more motivation to get all these exams over soon...

then a few moment later, as we were walking through the shops, we bumped into tiang lim there...he was meeting eddy for movies... but too bad for them the movie tix just sold out....
then we ended up going to marche to hang out and eat... talking crap....

yup, overall today went quite well, kinda relax a bit but there's this slight guilt of not studying... but oh well, i cant keep studying non stop like dogs... i need a break as well. I promise tmrw will be a much more promising day...hopefully so....

yay!!! all the best for exams everyone...it's just short term!

Uban uban...

Panic mode:

I just spotted one strand of grey hair on my head...
have i been studying too much?? actually not really leh....


i've just been sitting in library and study room more often. But if you really follow wad i'm doing from the beginning of the day to late at nite, u can't agree more that i'm really not that hardworking. i usually just make myself feels good and not so guilty by sitting down in front of my notes and textbook. In actual fact, i can't move on from those few pages (which means that my progress is super duper slow.... not good since exam is coming really really soon...)



As i'm writing this blog now, i'm in fact guilty of this "crime". i'm supposed to be reading through my organic chem notes while waiting for my laundry in the dryer. But wad can i do...the temptation of facebook, youtube, blogspot and many many more is too strong to resist.



but those things aside, and coming back to the issue of grey hair....
How?? i don't wanna be like this in the future

Haha... just kidding, release a bit more stress now that exam is coming!! Jiayou everyone who has exam as well....

ps: organic chem reactions make me go crazy....arghhh

Alice Tjitradjaja....

The last thing i noe was that i was already incuded in the "pact" wakakaka

but it's okay, it's just one of those stupid things that we came up with during JC time...lol

haha...i think this post sounds more like personal msg to you ... but i will still publish it!

happy birthday my friend!!!

last but not least....

a struddle for you!!

(ignore the no of candles.... lol...)

Lonelier than ever.. pep talking myself

it's been hell of a week.
things keep coming n flying in towards me.
I kinda feel that i dun have any sense of direction anymore. I'm just doing things just for the sake of doing. I cant even see the meaning of uni life at all. It's just a series of comes and gos...
even friends...i dun even have a fixed group of friends that i usually cling on to...my source of support. i noe this statement is not totally true...but that's the general feeling that i have now...

i find it hard even to discipline myself. i keep running n hiding away from the responsibilities that i'm supposed to face. i just dun have the strength anymore...

i've set target for myself for this sem, to catch up with whatever i've not done well last sem. i know i'm comparing myself too much with others. i noe i shldnt, but it's not a conscious effort, it's just natural to do so. even if you dun want to, u'll be "forced" to. It's really demoralising to see everyone is doing quite well and you are struggling alone... okay, "alone" is not the right word. but yeah, i feel really alone in this. Even if others say they can't make it...can you really trust them? even if you can, can you really define a standard for "cant make it".

i kinda feel that my passion is not really here.. but whatever it is, i wont give up. coz i've found a source of inspiration and motivation...
yesterday i accidentally stumble upon this videos of Justin Timberlake doing his grand performance at Madison Square Garden.
i mean, it's not really about that concert alone...
i'm just in awe of his hardwork n every effort that he put in in all of his performances. To us, singging and dancing on stage may look like a great deal of fun, especially if you are doing it for a living. but i trust that it's not so if you really have to do it everyday, as yor profession. Just like me, doing engineering as my major, which part of it is fun to me? honestly none!...

but after i watched his concert yesterday... i just got very inspired by how he spiced up all his shows. he may be doing the same dance moves over and over again on different stages... but as i follow most of his performances, i always find something unexpected each and every time...
then it gets me thinking to myself... why can't i do the same. The key is: Be professional! Get the best of whatever i'm doing, whether i like it or not... i may not be very good always (especially in comparison to others), but so what...? as long as i've done my very best...i should be satisfied. If it's not good enough, try harder next time... this world is a mean place, but sometimes you are still given more chances to move up the ladder... there's room for everyone..

yeah, feeling really optimistic now...
okies, moral boosted and time to get back to studying...

photojournalisting my life

Oh my!!! see how long have i abandoned this blog...

oh well, u'll understand why....

This sem has been as hectic as hell... somehow time just passed so fast and looking back, i see that i've done so many things this sem that i cant seem to have a proper weekend for myself... the first proper weekend was spent eating swedish meatball at ikea with ismy and shopping at flesh imp with linda...hahha not bad!

okie, i shall cut the crap and below i have some pictures of the past events that has occured this semester, those things that kept me busy and crazy...hahha... they may not be in chronological order...i just cant rmb which comes first...

oh well, i'll start from the most recent one....lol
