We don't know, and we won't ever know, as we've crossed our path, we will still remain in touch, but knowing you seem much more distant. I could hear, I could feel, there seems to be sth that is stopping our communication.
I apologise for what had happened b4.. I'm just glad we're still in contact... I wish... we could be the same. :)
To the special u... All would be better... Cheer up!

Even my colleagues were teasing me on going away in such short period of time.
Well, I gotta cherish the limited time I have. :) (that is if u know wat i mean... ^^)
2 holidays in less than 30 days... gosh... can u imagine that, for a workaholic like me...commonly known as "sieworkaholic", to take time off..
The local trip to Tioman was a 4 day 3 night diving trip, and yeah... u got it right.. I'm a certified diver as of now...
While the overseas trip to China was a one week holiday!! Wow... this is SO unbelievable... Its been awhile since I last gave myself some space for a breather before getting back to my work, it certainly acts as a recharge to my dull life.
Of course, having that special someone around makes a difference too. ^^
Though there were times that I was neglected and felt emo, it was still 2 wonderful trips to remember on 2 special dates, those disagreements will be sorted out with proper communication.
Hhahaaa... to add on to it, I've passed my first level paper, another surprise for myself, as I was burning the midnight oil, studying at the eleventh hour for this exam, in which I promised myself, not to repeat the same mistake and procrastinating nature for the coming papers.
I'm also off my braces now... YIPPEEE!!! *wink wink* hahahha.. no more metal pieces stuck to my teeth.. Nyahahhaha...Next I'll need to do some plastic surgery wei to look more photogenic... *ahahahhahah, jkjk....* as if i'll ever be photogenic.
Lalala...going off for now.. no mood to be philosophical...

Its specifically to u buddy. I hope you'll stand up strong and cheerfully embrace life that will be laid in front of you when u move forward.
I have this burning question, what is the most important thing one should pursue in life?
Is it family? career? money? relationship? self fulfilment? detachment?
These are just a few answers that would generally pop up, and it is important to realise that life changes course all the time, with many factors contributing to the change, ultimately its how you manage it with the right attitude.
Ok, what is important to us changes at every phase of life. my question is directed at this phase of life where my peers and I are going through, some of us are in the midst of completing their studies, some working, some already married with kids, some are soul searching etc.
Now coming back to my thoughts, why the sudden question on what one would like to achieve in life? Its because of the differing goals of 2 people that resulted in the ending of one of my buddy's relationship. It just occured to me, is it true that when u n your partner, when you can't compromise each other, can't accept that he/she is allocating less time for u, that it signifies that you are no longer who he/she loves? I beg to differ on this point.
I've heard of 2 stories, one from my guy buddy who is now hurt, but putting up a strong face in front of me, and the other from my gal buddy, who is only hanging on to the relationship for the very fact of dependance.
For my guy buddy, he is focusing on building up a career, to ensure a better future with his gal. He took the effort to communicate to his other half regarding this, which would require her to be patient as his main aim is to succeed in career by suffering now and enjoying the fruit of his hardship later in life with his beloved one. However, by doing so, his other half decided to give up on him. He was devastated, they've been together for quite a while, but... things took such a turn just because he is pursuing his career and had to sideline her. the obvious difference here is that his goal now is his career, but her goal now is her life with him, this contrasting goal in life came with a price, ie. the ending of the relationship.
For my gal buddy, she is complaining about her guy not spending enough time with her... which gave her the feeling of being neglected. No doubt, gals like the idea of being around with their loved one, it is important to note that both guy and lady should come to a middle ground where things can be sorted out, it doesn't mean you must sacrifice certain things to make the other happy, it simply means, agreeing to an acceptable amount of time you allocate for each other, while understanding the other commitments that your 2 have, especially our careers at this point in time. Communicating clearly of your needs to your other half would also cut down the ambiguity that lies in your relationship, its not worth being too floweryl in your conversation with your special him/her, sometimes telling it directly but subtly would do the magic. Instead of you getting frustrated over he/she not understanding you, why not just lay your cards clearly on the table for he/she to see?
Buddy, all I can say is... I know you are disappointed, you are hurt, but know that making a decision in life always comes with consequences, I believe she would come to realise one day that you are doing this for the betterment of everything.
Its a suffering period for you now, you will eventually stand up on your feet and achieve more miracles in life than you ever could. I've always had the faith in you to make a difference, this is just a hurdle that you'll eventually overcome. Cheers buddy! It will all be fine. :)

It seems weird, though I like a fast paced life, but whenever I slow down the steps to turn around to reflect on the experiences of mine throughout the period, I tend to feel like I've missed out a lot of meaningful parts of life, that could have made my life more colourful.
You see, probably if I could have took the extra time to get to know someone, spend more time with the people I care, think twice before I make any decision, to appreciate the special moments of life, things could have been different.
But as the saying goes, like what my colleague mentioned, we are living a purpose driven life, everything we do, there is always a reason behind supporting it, so... wth... cut the thinking after some liquor... blame mh for getting me into this state of mind. hahahaha.,..
he is reading this while I'm typing it... there goes his "hwa....".... hahahha...
Anyways, its been awhile since I last updated this poor secluded spot of mine..guess I shall revisit it when I have more interesting thoughts to pen down, as for now, adios! I shall plan ahead for my longer weekend, though its not gonna be as long as I want it to be!!
Tata!!! poor blog, I shall be MIA for awhile till I finish my exams!!
p/s Shucks... I'm still out la.. time to oi oi liao..mh... =.=''' u gonna get it from me!!

2008, a year that was full of ups and downs, a year where I realise a lot of things in life, a period that had a very lasting impact in almost every part of me. I must say it wasn't a smooth ride, it is a year that I'm OFFICIALLY and LEGALLY recognised as an adult, but there are so many intangible and indescribable experience that has made its mark in my small lil mind.
I made a lot of mistakes, mistakes that I may not be able to forgive myself for, mistakes that I have to pay for in the future, mistakes that I swear I wouldn't repeat.
I changed jobs, stepped out from some people's life, shy-ed away from certain unwanted arguments that are left in the freezer till an uncertain future, went thru 2 traumatizing events and many more. Though all these may seem like a usual part of life that one would go through, I reckon that it were significant events that would be sealed in my memories forever.
I'm still learning and growing up, struggling nad stumbling upon life's very miracles and disappointments, but I'm glad that I'm surrounded by caring family and friends whom I can count on, and I believe the year 2009 would be a more interesting one! :)
I may have started this post on an emo note, do allow me to sign it off with a positive touch! As I have always been the person who believes in the silver lining. Cheers to all, and I may not update till after CNY! Gong Xi Fa Cai!
p/s thx to all who visited me at the hospital! :) Love you all!

Oh well, it is over anyway, life goes on, it wouldn't be put on paused mode just because I was physically injured. hahaha... hmmm, chocolates were my best friend though, I lost count of how much choc I've consumed over this week, as I felt much better after taking them..Lol... (note: i'm putting on weight for no reason) too bad lo, a small price to pay to distract myself with choc rather than focusing too much on my pain.
Went to MPH warehouse sale on Friday night after work with SS, KX and KS, our total spend for the day was RM 450 i think, hahaha... then went on to Ming Tien, then to Jaya One, T.T I didn't get my dose of Liquor.... I want Chivas.... but we walked by Beer Brussels Cafe just like that.... T.T
Went on to Metrojaya Warehouse sale with my parents on Saturday. hahaha... spent almost RM300 on my stuffs. *evil grin* that is my shopping untill end of November d la, no more splashing d... but got nice skirts, though I missed out on the cosmetics and perfume part, as it was REALLY REALLY congested in the stadium, they even have to let the people in batches by batches so that no one will faint. ROFL... I guess the economy contibutes partly to this la... how often there is such a good warehouse sale within a decent distance for people from Klang, SA and SJ.
Cheers. Gotta go shower now... another round of torture, and out I go.. Chaoz!

I just finished my meeting with Project Mgr and Project Sponsor, It dragged till about 8, as we had to finalise certain things; then Janelle, Nikki and I grabbed our bags and laptops respectively after meeting to head home. We were happily walking, commenting on the senior citizens who were doing "qigong", discussing about what we were gonna do tomorrow, Nikki went off to the other direction as her car was parked at the left side of the park while Janelle and I continued walking together, I saw my car about 10m away, I told Janelle that my car was blocked, then the next moment, *gasp, deep breath*, my hand bag was dragged from behind (my handbag was on my right shoulder while my laptop was on my left, my car keys was in my right hand while my spectacles was in my left hand), and I went along with it, falling onto the tar road, dragged along with the motorcycle for almost 10m, I was in total shock, I couldn't describe my feelings, I only remember my face so near to the motorcycye's tyre and my right arm clinging to my handbag, I struggled to get my hands off to stop being drag... and the motorcylist with its pillion rider sped off. I tried to catch a glimpse of the culprit, but couldn't...I YEEEELLLLLLEEDDDDD so loudly and uncontrollably, I couldn't believe what happened, the "qigong" team came to help, Janelle and Nikki came running to me, the kind couple from across the road came to assist as well... the motorcyclist was long gone...*my mind was blank*
It was pretty noisy when I sat on the tar road, trying to come to my senses, everyone was commenting and asking, I reached to Janelle, asked her to contact my mom, my hands were shivering, my entire body wasn't in my control, I knew I was injured, but I was numb, no pain at all, no feelings...While Janelle called my mom to inform about my situation, I was helped by Nikki to get up to rest at the couple's house. I remember hearing one of the uncle's calling the police, while the others tried to sort out if there was any witness... I held on to Janelle and let all my tears out, it was just terrifying, a daunting scare.. I had to cry... bottling it up wouldn't do me any good...
The next thing I remember was speaking to my mom on the phone, I was calmer at that time, telling my mom to call the respective banks to freeze my credit card and atm cards, telling her my condition etc., my car keys was still tight in my right hand, while my spectacles was smashed in my other, I slowly felt the pain of the bruises on my body, both my shoulders, my right back, my right back waist, one small portion of my left scalp, my both arms were all bruised. The police came by in 2 vans, asking for details, I was thinking rationally already at that moment, so I stood up slowly, spoke to the police on how I should lodge a report and what needs to be done, I headed to my car, (ignoring the advice of Janelle and Nikki that I shouldn't drive, haha, sorry gurls, I'm that hard-headed one la), got them 2 into my car, and went to the police station.
A report was lodged, a list of stuffs in my handbag was written, statement was taken, called up Maybank to cancel my card, called and scolded DIGI which couldn't suspend my line, =.=''' *useless service* I was able to smile and laugh already, feeling fortunate that I only had bruises, felt the pain all over, joked with Janelle and Nikki, even with the police who was taking my statement, I didn't realise how much I lost untill I was asked to give a rough estimate of the value of things in my handbag...let's see.. I had both my handphones with all my contacts, my PDA with all my appointments, my mp3 with al my songs, my beloved camera with all the pics, 3 of my thumb drive with all my work and records, my IC and cards and etc... sigh... it all summed up to about RM3k... gosh... sigh sigh sigh... heartaches thinking of it..
After getting my police report, went to the clinic to clean my wounds, got a tetanus jab, dropped Janelle and Nikki off to their cars, and went back home to my parents. *sob sob* still get a lil teary thinking of the encounter...but grateful that I was with Janelle and Nikki, who had to end up home late coz of me... but their presence meant a lot, thanks gurls!! hugsss.... It feels so good to be home with mom and dad...*I had to warn them not to nag at me, coz they will.. hahaha*

couldn't find a proper title for this post. Its basically some random thought cropping up my head. :S
I feel kinda pointless having too much free time to spend, I tend to slack off when I have nothing to do, weird I must say, as people usually prefer to sit back and relax, but I just can't even sit down and read something for more than 20 minutes, I easily distracted. (wonder how I ever survived m study life, especially during revision for exams, my span of attention is even shorter), well, I guess that is me, those who know me well, would know I like to be kept busy, if not I can be grumpy and irritating. Hahhaa...
CY commented, my mom has also always commented, I seem to want a lot of things, and when I set my mind in pursuing sth, I tend to lose focus on my own health (which can be pretty bad sometimes), haha... I tried maintaining healthy eating, but it only did me good for about 7 months, then I got back to drowning myself in all other things except my health. Lol. My parents have been spending a lot since I was young to ensure I'm in good health (ie. no sickness or injuries, I'm particularly prone to injuries though, like now, I have problems with my right wrist and right knee, due for acupuncture in half an hour's time. sound like an old lady with all the joint prob hor. hahah), but I'm a useless daughter. Sigh...

The details of the camp... hmmm, well, wouldn't wanna elaborate much here, as I may or may not confuse you. because its a more religuious thing... Hahah... anyways, coming in to office on Monday morning was great, I got to eat tarts from Malacca, CC's wedding cake, biscuits from taiping, and now I'm aiming for the nuts from BP.. hahaha..
and during the 5 day camp, I really missed my mom and grams... wonder why... sobs sobs sobs...

A very very big thanks and token of gratitude to all who made time to celebrate my birthday with me, I didn't hold a big birthday party as I preferred small gatherings with all.
Big huggie & kisses and thanks to my mom and dad, who got me big big birthday gifts, love ya both, without you two, I won't even exist. *coughs* I don't wanna go into the scientific part of it! Coming to think of it, my mom went thru so much pain to give birth to me, and I'm here partying... Hmmm... a food for thought.. I can't thank the both of you more. I'm officially 21 now, and I hope I can really be a grow up and be a good daughter! I know how much time, effort, money and everything you both has invested in me, its time to get some ROI. (haha, i'm infected by Jared's professional sickness!) I wouldn't wanna disappoint you, ma and pa.
p/s both my mom and I are september babies also. *winks*

Lol. Thank you all for the prezzies, they were all great. :) it ranges from books to MNG stuff, wow... love them all, had quite a number of meeting up with different gangs, which is as follows (in date order):

Then had dinner with YP and KL at Tar Bush Restaurant, the Kebab was amazing, the nasi briyani chicken was wonderful!!! ah... what a pampering to my well-deserving tummy. Haha...Also dropped by "winter warmers" for a drink, do try the green rose tea -->really fragrant and refreshing, but don't take the blueberry ice blended... its really like its name, so BLEND. sigh. :)
Ah yes... Tuesday, went over to Amuleto for dinner with my other 5 "SMART-ies". hahah... Really touched by them for making it an eventful celebration over a weekday night. :) Hugs to all! The Rosti is delicious~ kudos to the chef! Wanted to get chocolate fountain but they didn't have it yesterday, neither did we get the chocolate fondue, because we realise it did not meet out ROI (as taught by Jared). Lol...I got my prezzie from the happy and funny lot. Thanks again guys and gurls... ^_^ it has been a pleasure getting to know each and everyone of you too. Appreciate all the words of encouragement and support that kept me patient with my braces. *coughs* I shall keep dreaming of becoming a pretty self after getting rid of the "metals"... :)

Have you ever felt irritated by a person who insists that you can only behave the way he or she expects you to?
Have you ever felt restricted in every way when around someone?
Have you met someone who loves to dominate any conversation, and when you are tired to talk, he or she gets annoyed?
I really wonder, why.... sigh... why can this behaviour be so ridiculous, gimme a break wei... sigh...

I tend to ponder, why some things are so far reaching? something good has been so close to me all these while, and I didn't realise till now that it is far away. I did not grab hold of the opportunity, am I regretting? or am I being too cowardly? has my perception on things changed? hmmm... i wonder...could it have been different if I took action?
Is there any possibility? what is the probability? Will I get to know the situation better? I'm confused, if its just gonna be short, or should I just let nature take its course?
I don't know...well, I guess all I can say is its so uncertain, is this a right step? I wouldn't know untill the path is unveiled, I shall be myself, and the time will come.
Hahahaa.... gosh, i manage to confuse myself with this post. lol, doubt that anyone would understand, neither do I. Haahha... weirdo..
