about me thinking aloud.

just a warning, this post may not make sense but i hope that in some way people can relate to it (:

over the past week I've come to realise that there's something that you can learn from everything- so it's good to take the leap( this gets me thinking about marshall standing on the ledge, HIMYM fans!!) and do things that you normally wouldn't do. I've done a couple of things that I would say are not very huayshan-like over the past week and I've actually learnt a fair bit and put some things behind me that may be otherwise left unresolved.

(and can i also say that my ego has had a peg or two taken down from it but it's all good, it's good to know that not the whole world loves you, you know)

.. and can i also say if you think my taste in music is gay, wait till you meet my brother. he is blasting the veronicas in his room. and yes he got it from my ipod. but it still counts.

so basically lesson learnt!!

Don't be afraid to try new things-as long as you're not hurting anybody.

Don't be bothered if people don't like certain things about you- this is hard!!

And don't take your best friend for granted.

Thanks Vanessa.

about me being so incredibly stupid at times

first things first, i straightened my hair yay finally! been wanting to do it for agees. it looks fine so double yay!

on a very random note, i want to learn how to play the drums.

life has been very nice to me and i've truly loved seeing everyone and everything. inception was okay, leo is hot but joseph gordon-levitt is hotter. i am sad now because i don't have anymore movies to look forward to!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :'(

i especially love hanging out with classies, dont know if u all feel that way too but i feel so blessed to have had such an awesome group of classmates(:

moving on to something a little more personal...

i like to think of myself as a mature and sensible person but truth is i'm just a silly little girl most of the time. and i do things that are stupid even though i know they are stupid- just because i love feeling like i don't know how things will turn out and i love doing the occasional immature, irrational thing. and of course i eventually regret doing said stupid things.

aw still have two more weeks in my lovely land. cant wait for elise to be back!!

About forgetting

Okay you see right, when you stick me in a country-a cold gloomy country- for a year you can't expect me to remember things. I start forgetting.

I forget how glorious the east coast wind feels.
I forget that I was once in a school that I loved with all my heart.
I forget that feeling of comfort that comes with the presence of S33ians.
I forget how auntie Han Teng is.
I forget what real friendship feels like.
I forget what genuine happiness feels like.

Thank you for reminding me(:

Hello, Again

I haven't updated this space in a loooong while. Been busy with plenty of things such as planning trips, interning & meet ups.

Approaching the tail end of the internship, it got me reflecting on the things I've learnt. I realised that as much as I dread dragging myself out of bed to work every morning, I will kind of miss this place. Miss the new friends I've come to like - they're different from the usual bunch. Being older, they do have different experiences to share. Our soccer talks over coffee are always entertaining. I've also come to enjoy the company culture. Everyone here is very down to earth save for one & even though some might be heads of their department, they still take the time to talk to me & make sure I was doing okay. They didn't make me feel invisible. I really admire them for their genuine concern & sincerity. Everyone here is like that - welcoming & inclusive. I doubt there are large corporations that actually have such people.

As for work, I've really learnt a lot on presentation skills, the various countries etc. I'm really glad I got this opportunity. It's a definite change from my previous internship but enjoyable nonetheless.

I hope to come out of this a better person. Now back to work & the headache of my hectic schedule.

Toodles!

about being in Malaysia

just finished an msn conversation with liesel- SORRY liesel :(

basically, i can't drive cause my mum says the temple says i cant this year and even if i could i'ld probably get lost :( and it sucks cause my malaysian friends want to meet up but i have no mode of transportation( daddy stays overnight in farm during weekdays, mummy works) and yes it just sucks. I've been spending my days following mummy to work and doing some tutoring which is fun enough but i still look forward to singapore where buses and trains await me.

other than that life has been pretty relaxed and yea me likey! haha oh but i cant wait for sunny singaporeee!! (:
