Went to Huay's place for lunch on Saturday and then went to meet Elysia in Orchard to shop (yeah) for cosmetics. She has ran out of her powder foundation and we are on the shopping spree to get more eye shadows, lip gloss, eye liner, mascara and whatever else that can enhance our face to make it look good :) Jfk and Aunt Eugenia were bored..Oh before meeting Elysia, i also went to a sinseh at Geylang. Zeh mo PAINFUL lo..see she small size small size her "gu lak chut ka liao" and she pressed on my shoulder so hard like nobody's business man! I was already wincing in pain...but alas..she showed NO MERCY. Seeing me winced seemed to make her pressed harder while mumbling,"i will set your spine back to the correct position. See see, feel no pain now." Wondered how can Sean tahan and tell me "you feel damn high". High my foot ^_^'
Got home at 10pm and was too tired to do housework haha excuses...i really hate doing housework :(
Confessions of a "strictly follow the ways of a good Christian" wannabe...i overslept and missed church service on Sunday.. how dreadful! Ok, i am sure i would be forgiven for this..Moving forward (two words that everyone seems to use in Arrow), i will buy one more alarm clock.
Went to eat Sakae sushi with mum and Jervis in Simei, mum ate only toufu and miso soup. Jervis and me wah...ate like twelve plates of dishes between the two of us. Er i think he ate more than me la...but he excercises and i don't...and i am getting fat he is getting fit arghhhh!!! Next stop, NTUC. (Night Time U Come brothel -> courtesy of Dim Sum Dollies) Bought chicken breast meat, potatoes, carrots and onions. I am making curry for dinner heh heh
The pain in my back was so freaking pain today. Took Jervoise's powerful pain killer and went to take an afternoon nap...willing the pain away.
Curry was good heehee my dad suan-ed me.."eat more curry ah, very difficult then can eat something cooked by ah girl" tsk tsk
After dinner, dad, mum, Jervoise, Jfk and me went to Geylang East for foot reflexology. 20 bucks for 40 minutes of foot massage or 30 bucks for an hour of foot massage plus 10 minutes of back massage thrown in. I wanted the back massage but Jervoise said the last time he had neck and backache, he went to get his back massaged...and kena slipped disc. I decided i should not risk it, so got the 40 minutes foot massage instead heehee

6 March, 2008
I received a letter from Achieva today...IR8A. And i put the letter side by side with the one from Arrow and thought to myself wow, bought over by Arrow. Imagine being colleagues again haha would be fun to see them again but i don't really look forward to seeing someone actually...
A pity Jeremy has left...otherwise, we would be working together and i am sure we will work well together given our chemistry.

3 March, 2008 - Shocked
This morning, Edward walked up to me and asked if anyone from Achieva has called me. Arrow has bought over Achieva! Wah thought it was just a rumour but wah! Anyway, it feels so strange haha..almost about a year ago, i just shook everyone's hands in there to say bye hmmm
God works in funny ways, i received a sms from Jessica to bring Jfk to church on Easter day. She said God has a message for him. I asked her if it was a general casual remark or she meant that God has a message specifically for Jfk. She text back that she was praying and asking God to give her a name of someone who was in need of prayer and Jfk came to her mind. Strange because Jessica does not know Jfk at all. I am so touched that i felt my eyes watery..
I told Jfk about it later in the evening and he said what i said gave him the creeps. Nevertheless, he agreed to go to church with me :) cos God has a message for him.

2 March, 2008 - Pedicure day
Got myself to church on time this morning :) There was a guest speaker from the States today and he talked about meaning of life.
Apparently, there are 6 billion people in the world and 75% of us are searching for a purpose in life. We are all caught in a cycle of survival, living from pay checks to pay checks, changing from jobs to jobs, going into relationships after relationships...all these just to look for the meaning in life.
- Success is not a satisfier, it's a platform for recognition and reputation.
- We will never change what we are willing to tolerate.
- Stay focussed
He wants us to remember this:-
What you make happen for others, God will make happen for you.
Ephesians 6: 8
'...because you know that the Lord will reward everyone for whatever good he does, whether he is slave or free.
Proverbs 25: 28
Like a city whose walls are broken down is a man who lacks self control.
A video clip of all the mission trips made last year was shown today. The more i looked at what these volunteers are doing in all these mission trips, the more i am convinced that should be my calling. To reach out and serve and make something of my life. I need a sign and please God, show me your way..and i will follow again.
Jervoise picked me up after service and we had lunch at Paya Lebar Singpost :)
It was raining when we got home and Jervoise went to pick Jervis from tuition..i took Jervoise's "very powerful" pain killer and went to sleep..cos it made me groggy..
When i woke up, the three of us went to Parkway heehee Both of them went for foot reflexology and i went to get a pedicure. Wah this time i chose a bright shade of red and painted gold flowers on both my toes. I love this pedicure lady's work of art.
Dad bought lotsa food from a zi cha stall and we sat together for dinner at the new dinning table. I feel so happy to be home...wish i was staying here again...
We should all contribute back to society and earth..all of us has a purpose in life..and we are all searching. Contentment is as opposed to change...i think

Woke up at 10am today, got myself ready to go Yishun to pay respect to Jfk's grandmother..death anniversary. Anyway, didn't go in the end. Washed the clothes and get ready to have lunch with Yan and Rubes.
Yan picked me at 2.15pm, went Bugis to meet Rubes for 小笼包 :) at Nanxiang restaurant, which Rubes said is very famous in Shanghai.
Had red wine at Grapevine in Upper Serangoon Road. The wine sucks but at least the ambience was good..after our red wine and chat, we had Teochew porridge haha such food indulgence on a Saturday night :)
Jervoise and Jervis jio me for a midnight movie but i am tired and sleepy from the red wine...shucks. Got home at 10plus and watch my dvd "Home Song Stories"... Joan Chen is such a great actress. I fell asleep thinking about what happened in the show haha cheong sums never look so appealing hee

29 February, 2008 - "Leap Year" day
Got my first increment today :)
Drinks at Mel's place in Siglap with Edwin, Sean, Alex and his wife, Siew Lin. Beer taste good when you are with your favourite pair :)
Chatted with Edwin on what i think is life issues. Interesting :) found another JK haha..except that this one is more mature and stable (please invite me to your wedding ROM la, to celebrate your joy ma)
Edwin sent Sean and me home. We chatted til wee hours...
Setbacks..one either become bitter or grow from it. Though either choice will make one a stronger person. If bitterness sets in, then there will always be a baggage to carry..emotional baggage
I realised that in such a big company, sometimes one just have to be aggressive and loud enough to get noticed. So does that mean that one has to attend company gatherings for a purpose? I still honestly feel that building relationships is important but it has to be sincere and genuine, otherwise, it's meaningless and just being hypocritical.
Good bosses. Sometimes it's so important to have a boss who protects his/her charges. At least for now, everyone here is so nice which equals to nice environment.
Thank you for sharing so much tonight, thank you for not hiding behind a mask.
