*clears throat* started.
sigh. such a pain.
should be brainstorming more for the movie
should be wise and start on knowing how to deal with photoshop b4 its too late
should not dream bout weird things (its still up to God >.<)
should not be having a slow brain that take so much time to process things
should maybe start accepting the fact that my friday class is at 3.30 till 5 !!!
should maybe try not to freak out after knowing how hard my year 2 syllables are
need more meiji green tea ice-cream...
for de good of de tortured mind

20 blogs on my 5-month holiday,
n it ends here.
my journey these months haven't been de best,
but still great.
at least i had de opportunity for this amount of time to be spent however i wanted...
as for the goals i wanted to set,
barely passed on de list of thins that i was set to do:
=( learning up on photoshop n other programmes
=( getting bac to the piano
=( finish writing de novel i started ages ago
=( so many other things that are now forgotten even
de highlights to my holiday were just unforgetable. de things that made me NEVER wanna start class, de things that i gained, de stuff that i can do:
=) australia. the trip is so nice i've dreamt several times about goin bac. wad i've experience cant be described in words. its like stepping in another world altogether
=) being a waitress of de bee! its been more than 2 months working there. meeting new ppl, knowing how it feels to be servicing customers, learning how to make coffee, getting interesting tasting of food sometimes... de list goes on. makes a new part of my life now.
=) reading. since de holidays started, i picked up a book. it became a habit since. there is always a book in my bag now. gone from mitch albom to piles of chinese novels. n now i cant seem to get my hands off at least one book in mph.
=) since i worked for the other half of my holz, i gained $$$. de freedom of using them for several things i've wanted was nice. but somehow, since moving out, my sense of broke-ness seem like it wud be sticking to my head 4eva.
there has been changes n al. like de 6 pacts leaving for this n that. n gathering for this n that too. somehow gives us each a very personal view on what role each of us play in each other lives.
thoughts on my holiday end here.
de great n relaxing fantasy ends here.
de free flowing freedom ends here.
de mind hibernation of 5 months ends here.
my life,
as a student desperate to keep my scholarship refreshes,
as a family trying to balance spending time with everyone refreshes,
as a 20 year old trying to enjoy nice things in life while keeping my academic deadlines in tact refreshes.
its time,
to step back into the world.
together with my brain, that is.

its de beginning of merdeka day.
i spent de first few minutes listening to jay while driving from dsh to jaya one.
am currently hungry for sumtin nice to eat.
hmmmmm
suddenli reminded me of a significant merdeka day a few years bac.
funny how so many years have passed
marianne is sick.
high fever, mycoplasma pneumonia, tubercolosis all came out,
everyone was worried sick,
spending all the time trying to make sure things are ok with her.
today,
she thankfully have a really constant temperature,
hoping n prayin for the best now.
its really the end of the month now,
trying not to remember its sept in another 24 hours
guess i shud just look forward to seeing my thousand bucks pay cheque
n just be happy for my long-avoided results to still enable me to maintain my scholarship
not to forget the free staff dinner tmr...
n also finalli, de amount of sleep i could get tonightttt
happy merdeka, malaysia,
u've made it another year ^.^

august has been really consistent
consistently watchin movie by movie on fridays
consistently working 6 days a weeks
consistently dreaming of holidays
consistently hanging out wif our new bunch of colleague friends
guess tins went on so smooth tat august is slipping away fast.
considering de fact tat ther are so many more cafes/restaurants out ther n i hav landed on 'the bee', it is one in a million on what could have happened.
working ere sure have its disadvantages,
but this few weeks itself has shown me what good things it gave me:
#1 random drinking sessions wif abbie, jared n ujean.
#2 had free drinks treated by de boss
#3 tasting sessions on cakes n stuff
#4 jared whom gave everyone his cute facial expressions n his share of downloaded series
#5 free dinner n entertainment coming up on de following sunday for all cafe staff
guess de listed above is good enuf.
starting from nex week,
hav to take most of de morning shifts thx to peir hung.
sigh
goin to kill him when he leaves on monday

FIFTEEN.
a frightening number.
its already mid august b4 anyone knew it.
realized it when de radio sound de date.
how can time pass this fast.
haven even handled so many tins.
barely prepared for anythin.
is there any human organ i could blame for giving stupid tots ?
i wud like to put de fault there.
for, i wud wan to believe it tat when de wtv organ recovers,
they wud just vanish
everytin beta end soon.
temporary relief ain gonna help anymore
coz time is not waiting for me.
crossing my fingers.

shell was tearin when aaron left jus now.
quite a shock.
guess i wud somehow understand that.
when i saw him sitting there in the bee last nite,
it was an indescribable feeling.
seng, jon n aaron himself might be shock at de fact i gave him a hug.
but guess, ther is no other way to express how i felt at de time.
having him around, physically and mentally,
was like sometin we could depend on.
it became too much of a norm to de both of us i guess.
anyways, may everytin be well wif him while he ventures his life in NUS

currentli in de bee now...
this post took quite some time to even finish.
since i am lacked of de line is this area i'm living
bac to wher i was
since i started workin ere,
new kinds of tots start to surface...
i was thinking how am i gonna spend my salary
furthermore, i stil wan to save
so, finalli came to a stop where i'm gonna buy an ipod touch!
bcoz de cost makes it more worth it than an ipod nano
i hav been workin n working nowadays
furthermore, workin extra lot of OTs this week
so, my legs hurt
bcoz gettin more mooney doesn make it sound so bad
i hav a new bunch of frenz now
furthermore, they could be pretty diff or perhaps similar to me
so, altho they're somewhat different i wud stil like to keep them
bcoz they are stil nice ppl to noe
i hav been a waitress for bout 3 weeks now,
furthermore, wif funny very early or very late shifts at times
so, i found interestin things happening now n then quite fun
bcoz they'll be sometin interest-ly different to put in my life experience
i also have been plannin for de jingly presents
furthermore, preparing sometin extra for some ppl
so, it made budgeting much more difficult
bcoz extra present means extra mooney
i hav been thinkin bout my australian trip alot
furthermore, even dreamt of it many times nowadays
so, i wan to TRAVELLLLL!!!
bcoz it feels niceeee, no burden, juz enjoy
i hav been reading alot, mainly chinese novels
furthermore, thinking if i'm gonna get a photoshop book n colorbook to prepare for class
so, hope i reli wud actualli read those boring non-fiction books
bcoz i wud jus die if i hav to make a presentation bod with zero photoshop knowledge
i am reli unhappy wif the fact tat its august already
furthermore, time is goin even faster since i'm just workin my butt off
so, may God prepare meeee
bcoz so many things are goin to happen in september

but it kills ur legs.
u noe b4 this?
when i was form five and finding a job,
i tot de one job i won wanna do is waiting.
then ther i was in de cafe today, rushing all over de cafe in my apron,
taking orders, serving drinks n food, getting the bill.
wad a change.
which made me tink wad made this tot change?
mayb its coz i wanna get off stuff tat has sumtin to do wif design for a while.
after 2 days of work,
realized i need to adjust to society,
tip 1: lettin de chef know tat u dun hav a bf is REALLYYY a bad idea. now its borthersome. GOd help me
tip 2: dun panic when ther is too many ppl, ul just forget stuf. just do it calmly.
tip 3: de smoking society. wil jus hav to cope.
tip 4: sayin a loud 'welcome' to someone tat just happen to pass by de shop might earn u another customer !
so far so good.
wil be doin dis for a month or two.
yeaa!!!
income finally $$$

its been a month plus being in 2010...
a very down start...
hoping de time when i say 2010 ends wud come soon...
maybe not...
when cny break ends it'd be a hard 2 months plus b4 i get my ultimate long FIVE-month holiday.
time shud stop then, if i'm not goin for tat terrible job tat is ...
cny spirits are sky high now, at least for me.
since its my break now.
n had to keep decorating double houses lately.
so sick of folding empty angpaus ad...
i'm retired on making fans for de year...
in de year 2010, Monsta enter de house, creating much chaos in the house.
everyone start to shout early in de morning :"MONSTER!!!"
somehow became my morning alarm.
Monsta is reli adorable, like now, he's on his back given a nice scratch by auntie's student.
its nice to stare at him, especially during hard times.
feels like he noes wad is goin on...
Another adorable person i saw recently is my youngest cousin, chloe.
when 'twinkle twinkle lil star' is sang, i could get a thousand shots on her smiling.

its 2010,
doesn matter if we can feel it or not...
2010 has crept its way ere,
wif many not prepared...
new year resolutions??? null...
not de type tat actualli makes some...
or maybe i shud...
errrr....
other than tryin to maintain my scholarship for my year 2,
dun tink i hav anythin else in mind...
dun tink i'l even come up wif a proper set of resolutions after all...
or shud i open dis to de floor???
2009 Reflection:-
a. moving in to Shell's
yeah. this wud be de most obvious one...its been a year and a month since i've had a new 2nd home with a bonus of a 2nd family. guess living with 2 families isnt exactly sometin everyone could experience. somehow, made me realize, families really do have differences, in terms of communication n even in aspects of dining. since i came in, ther are pros n cons. there were the family-time balancing dilemmas, de housework routines(in which i stil need to cope on the system), de mooney crisis, de lack of biological family's attn, etc... hmmmmm... life is not perfect i suppose... however, wif this 'loud' 2nd family that i hav, its reli sumtin special tat i appreciate =)
b. foundation vs. university
my frens n i hav made our move to being undergraduates. ppl around me hav start to feel the tension from the stepping stone they decided to thrive for. doubts obviously come along. its hard. as for me, foundation was tough, university was like stepping into some sinking sand. with time, i've manage to still keep myself at a safe level above surface. hope can at least remain ther for some time.
c. e.c.s.y.
uhuh.... another highlight... to come to think of it, didn noe God placed u in my life for so long to have come to this part of His funny plan...dear, no negative tots k, jus never tot u wud come along =P ... it has been 6 months now, u always appear without fail in every memory of the past year...de sweet n sour moments we've shared - langkawi, bias lecturers, birthdays, and talks, wil be lingering like lil glittery sparks in my mind * * *
k now, 3 is already pretty long. other stuff like de 6pax: from how it looks, we, dis bunch of monkeys, are pretty much stuck together for life... yupe.. crossing my fingers.
guess i'm done, for now
bubbles....
