Retrieved my lappie just now. Mainboard & web-cam changed. Glad that all my data are being kept well. Ha ha.
Was supposed to leave office at 12pm but I still have work which is incomplete and so I stayed till 1pm to finish up. Still got other work incomplete and gonna continue with it tmr. This is to prevent me from idling.
Don't know why today like got so many things to do when I have to leave early.. =.=
LAO TIAN YE is making fun of me.
Will be going out at around 4 plus pm! (:
I'm so sleepy now... Mum & Dad are not back yet :/


Tuesday, September 29, 2009 10:41 PM

Today marks the happiest day since the start of my attachment.
Bably asked me along for paying customer visits.
It was a brand new experience for me.
Having self-introductions, exchanging name-cards, doing follow-ups and so on.
At least this time round I'm doing something which is more meaningful as compared to the last 2 weeks.
Tmr I'll be leaving company @ 12pm cos my half-day leave has been approved!
Gonna go & support brother with my parents and aunt. Photos will be uploaded if blogger allows, if not I will upload on FB.
Before that I shall go the service centre & collect my lappie! Can't wait to get it back!
All in all, I think this week will be better than what I expected. (:
I will and am going to hang on there regardless of what.
Aza Aza H'waiting!

Weekends are now the best
Met up with Cas & Wee yesterday. We just sat in Mos Burger and chatted. Not forgetting Cheryth, she has grown up alot! Cutie! Hope there'll be more meet-ups but with the presence of Wei too. She has been MIA. -.- Also hope Net is doing well in SuZhou.

Well, I completed my weekly report within one hour's time because brother keep rushing me! I couldn't concentrate! But it's alright, thanks to him that I finished it pretty fast.
And yeah, like most of us are finding weekly reports a nuisance. The same goes to me. I find it so troublesome and pointless since we have interim and final reports!
But anyway, I have a question here. Can we repeat the points in our weekly reports? Because what if some of the weeks we do same/similar stuffs?

I'm contemplating whether to apply for a 1/2 day leave on the coming wednesday because that day is brother's POC. I really wished I can attend and support my brother! He's receiving 3 awards in total! Best in academic, best in training and best in overall performance. Aha, I'm so proud of him because he'll be the only one receiving awards. My coolest brother! Hee hee (: Comparing to the past, he has really matured a lot. The way he handle things, the way he speak and act. A real grown up. And I think in a way, the bonding between us has been strengthened, which is good. He's willing to share with me some of his thoughts and things. I hope no matter what happens in the future, we will be as good as now.

Sigh, weekends like passed pretty fast yeah? Will be working tmr again... and I think I'm going to EMO again. I can't help but keep complaining about how sucky my attachment is.

Anyway, my lappie is ready for collection since yesterday. Received the sms at 11.45am, which is 15 mins to the closing time. =.= How good if they could send me the sms earlier? In this case, I can only collect it on next sat due to time constraint. I think the same goes to Ci Min. Haa. I think our current situation is quite similar. Life without own laptop really... lifeless & empty!

Down on my luck

Recently I'm really down on my luck! Nothing good has happen to me ever since I entered that company. This morning was uber happening for me.

The story goes like that...
I went to work as per normal. On the way there, the sky was really cloudy man.
I alighted the bus and it was raining cats and dogs.
I've got no choice but to walk under the rain because I did not bring umbrella.
Alright nvm, I don't mind being in the rain for a short distance because I'm only left with 5 mins before I'm late for work again.
Then I waited at the traffic light. My company was just one road across.
Then there was this car that passed by & the bloody ROADSIDE WATER SPLASHED ON ME.
I was TOTALLY DRENCHED. Okay nvm, I've learnt my lesson.
And so I stood back and continued to wait for the very slow traffic light.
Then there was this huge vehicle that passed by & the bloody ROADSIDE WATER SPLASHED ON ME THE 2ND TIME.
I sweared... I was... SPEECHLESS and looked super pathetic (very dramatic).
Who asked me so stupid go and stand so near the roadside on rainy days especially like today?
I deserved it I guessed.

BUT, the moment I stepped into the office, few ladies noticed me and can see from their facial expression that they were shocked to see me in this state. Candy; the marketing manager asked if I got towel. One lady offered to lend me her shawl because she realized that my cardigan was totally wet and water was dripping.
At this moment, I was very touched because at least it comes to show that they cared for me. At the same time, pitied me too.
Then, Candy offered me a towel & a brand new formal shirt but I only used the towel.
Thanks, I really appreciated it.
Unlike someone in the office who only said "Aiyo, what happened?" and that's all. Cold-blooded.

Anyway, work was super duper uber BORINGGGGGGGGGG! I was idling from 1 pm until knock-off. The situation was exactly the same as yesterday.
It really kills for me to sit down there doing N O T H I N G. I looked like an idiot can. Hate it. So torturing.

My HP's battery runs out really fast because that's my only communication device when I'm in the office.

My mum doesn't know I'm having a hard time there. When she asked about my work, seriously I don't know how to tell her and don't dare to tell her also. I think she thinks I'm doing well. Don't wanna be another burden to her. Sigh.



Wednesday, September 23, 2009 9:14 PM

Nowadays why do I still think about you?
Wondering how you're doing, what kind of life you're leading now and who are the people you are hanging out with...
Who am I to care so much about you? I know I have no right at all but I just couldn't help it.
Is it because I have nothing much to do and that's why wild thoughts are passing through my mind again and again?


Sunday, September 20, 2009 4:19 PM

Caught a movie just now with Brother & 2 cousins. Not very sure about the title of the movie. It's about some aliens trying to invade the earth. Ha ha, there were parts which were quite hilarioius and my cousins were laughing out loud. Pretty entertaining. Had MOS burger after that. Bloated!!

Anyway, I dropped off my laptop at ACER service centre on Saturday with Ci Min. We had to fill up a form and that was the hilarious part bcos we wrote something funny on it. I'm now using my very old BENQ laptop. It has been left on my desk for like centuries and I'm surprised that it's still working pretty well. (: But can see that the keypad has a layer of dust over it and there is a limit to some of its functions. Ha ha. And so yesterday I went to aunt's house to complete my weekly report but to no avail bcos her Microsoft word wasn't registered.

This morning back to my home, I used my brother's laptop to submit my report. Relieved that his is working well for the time being. It's kind of complicated to submit via eportfolio! My brother helped me to figure it out but don't know whether it is correct or not. After 4-6 working days then I can get back my lappie. Can't wait to get it back. Feel so empty without it. Lol.

So sleepy now... Feel like taking a nap but I feel like it's a waste to sleep on a Sunday. No piano lesson tonight :/ Tomorrow will be another off! =) I hope there will be more PH to come. Bcos I seriously have a phobia towards attachment.

SIGHHHHHH...


Thursday, September 17, 2009 9:22 PM

Dramatic Day
On the way to work - overslept on the bus, late for work AGAIN.
This is seriously unlike me.
What the hell is wrong with me?
Everyday is like so tiring although I did nothing much.
WORK IS TOTALLY BORING & MEANINGLESS for now.
Unrelated stuffs. Demoralizing.
I hope for a better tomorrow. Sigh.
On the way home - Something embarassing happened.
Results will be released tomorrow!
Worried and nervous...
I have a bad premonition.


Wednesday, September 16, 2009 11:55 PM

SIGHSSSSSSSSS
Had dinner with DX & CM at IMM's HK Cafe. Forgot what's the name already.
CM & I had so much to say about our attachment. Or rather I should say we're complaining? Hai, our SXXXXXXXXX really fail. ):
But CM is considered even more poor thing bcos of her lunch. Cheer up girl and don't just eat bread, not nutritious enough! Thanks for accompanying me to the MRT station!
DX is always so lucky to have ppl treating her nicely and caring for her! How good if most of us are under the same company?! :/

Anyway, I felt much better after saying out the things that I have been bottling up in my heart. If not I think I will suffocate!

I can't wait for attachment to end! But today is only the 3rd day.

Time passes by damn slow during work. When I reached home, it's like so tiring already and time really flies. I don't know what I did but I'm just worn out. Not enough time and no stamina to do other things already and so go off to bed quite early. Listless... Lifeless...

I just realized how much I miss my friends, J2 and school life! ):

Keep telling myself to hang on there and think positively but it's kinda hard because things ain't the way I expected.

Can't help but keep sighing. I guessed I'm gonna have wrinkles during this period of time.

Going to turn in soon. GOODNIGHT WORLD...



Tuesday, September 15, 2009 9:55 PM

My work actually starts at 8.30AM but the NPmail that is sent to us says that I'm supposed to work from 7.30AM to 6PM. In the end, I reached 1 hr earlier today. Wasted my sleeping time!
Hai. ONE WORD - SIAN.


Monday, September 14, 2009 9:43 PM

Woke up at 6.30AM.
Missed bus 963 by a few steps.
Took the squeezy MRT and changed to bus 106.
Alighted at the wrong stop. Walked damn far, as a result, got blisters.
Late for work.
Lunched alone.
Caught a flu.
Visited doctor right after work.
Reached home at 8+PM.


What a bad day!
First day is damn sian. I hope to do more related stuffs ):

Hopefully tomorrow would be better...


Sunday, September 13, 2009 10:17 PM

Many thoughts going through my mind now! Attachment starts tomorrow!
Anxiety.
Excitedness.
Worries.
UNEASINESS...
Good luck to me k!

I just realised that all my MSN icons are missing!!! I don't know what went wrong! :'(

Anyway, I have just received my piano grade 3 marksheet and certificate! It's a merit. I was 10 marks away from distinction. Ha ha, got a slight sense of achievement... (:

A Better Tomorrow
Met up with Ting today. She wanted to get her Samsung Jet phone at Comex and yes she managed to get it! :) It's worthwhile for the 2 hrs+ queuing and waiting time. Many headed down there to look for better offers and it was really crowded. I don't like crowds!

We were starving and shivering at Comex bcos the air-conditioning seems to be FOC. We had late lunch at MFM. Ha ha, I had this for two consecutive days and I think the service personnel rmb me already! The food is good but I will get sick of it easily.

After which, we headed to AMK hub to find Boon Peng to get my hard disk. He's working over there. Thanks for taking up all those troubles to help me find a better offer!

I'm glad my brother is willing to share $$$ to purchase the hard disk bcos my laptop is seriously in need of storage space. To play safe, I transfered all my data into it and so I can send my lappie to repair components which are in faulty. It was indeed a wise decision for me! :D

Initially CM & I wanted to bring our very fail lappies to Acer service center. But due to certain reason, we postponed our plan to next saturday. Looking forward to better working performance from my lappie. LOL.

All in all, it was a pleasant day but with a bit of tiredness bcos of shortage of sleep. Had a great time catching up with Ting!

Time flies, I'm going for internship on the day after tomorrow (with a tinge of anticipation)! That's real fast. -.- I would be glad if the company is willing to take the initiative to inform me about what will be going on Monday.
Umm, hope that everything will go well for all of us. May the lady luck be with us! (=

Note: My recent photos can be found in FB bcos I'm lazy to upload here.

Busy yet fruitful week
Yesterday was great cos I went shopping with my best shopping partner, CM! Besides shopping around for our stuffs, we have also accomplished our task very efficiently. I don't think DX will be reading this? Ha ha. She managed to purchase something she like but the same does not go to me. But it's okay, I've enjoyed. We can really shop for so many hours simply with two short breaks! I like this kind of experience! :)
Hopefully during attachment we'll all get to meet up often too.

This morning I woke up damn early to visit my attachment company's site. I alighted one stop after Toh Tuck Flyover. It was really far for me! I find the area so unfamiliar. It took me around 1 hour to reach the place. My sense of direction is very bad and so I had a hard time finding my way back to IMM to meet DX. Ha ha. Those who know me should be clear about this fact. I hate it bcos when my family and friends are not around me, I feel rather unsecured. ):

Tmr I'll be waking up at 5AM in the morning to help out parents and meet up with J2 for dinner to have an advanced birthday celebration for DX. I guessed it will be a tiring day for me.

OMG, I spent so much this week! Filled with guiltiness. Ha ha. Declared bankrupt :/


Tuesday, September 08, 2009 10:59 PM

Sigh, I still cannot accept the fact that I'm attached to another company. It's really demoralizing.
I still find the shocking news quite ridiculous.

All I can do is to tell myself that... everything will be alright as long as I persevere and am willing to pick up new skills. I guessed it is also a very good opportunity for me to step out of my comfort zone. Meng, Aza aza h'waiting!



Disappointment
No longer looking forward to attachment because I'm not attached to charted semiconductor already. Irresponsible. Gave me false hope and expectations.
I'm now attached to the company which is located at CM's desired location. Sigh.
Like what she said, I have dropped from heaven to hell...
I don't mind the far distance, the long working hours and the low pay. My main worry is with regard to the company's requirement. They want a female student who has knowledge of web design. I don't even have that.
I just hope that everything will be fine and I will meet nice people. There's nth I can do do except thinking this way.


Monday, September 07, 2009 1:08 AM

记得你也想学钢琴 可是没机会
希望现在的你能跟我一样 去追求自己想要做的事情
找到自己对音乐的热诚


I can't go to sleep without music nowadays.
I guessed it has become a bedtime habit of mine.


Sunday, September 06, 2009 12:00 AM

HAPPY 19th BIRTHDAY MY DEAR TING !!! :D
Best wishes to you & ai ni oh :)


Friday, September 04, 2009 10:57 PM

A happier me :)
Recently have been busy helping out at my parents' stall. It's actually very bored for me to spend most of my time there but somehow I feel happier because I get to spend more time with my parents. More chances are created between my dad & I to communicate. So, in a sense, I'm bonding with them. :)
Dad seems to be in good mood these few days, which is good for all of us. I miss the times where we can joke about anything under the sun. Hope to be like the past.


Anyway, I'm looking forward to tomorrow. Seems like it will be a busy, meaningful and fruitful day. (=


Wanna thank Winson for the words that he said that day on MSN. He's right, we should think more positively regardless of any situations that are happening in our lives. Life is full of ups and downs, so why not use an optimistic attitude to face the challenges ahead?

"What would my life be if I migrated to other countries instead of S'pore?"
I have been thinking a lot to myself recently.
I'm tired. Really tired.
I can't seem to move on.
Am I losing passion in my life?

I'm scared of losing my family and friends.

I'm worried that one day I'll be left alone in this place.


Sigh.


i’m just who i am.
