hi! i've decided that i will not be making any public posts anymore. been thinking about locking the entries up to protect myself more.

i know there are a couple of friends (with no LJ accounts) who have been reading. well, if you would still like to know what's happening in my life, just sign up for a LJ account, let me know and i'll add you back!

CHEERS!!!

happy new year pull your ear!

to summarise, 2005 has been a good year for me.

graduated with dean's honour list, patched things up with my babes, managed to do a really fun roadtrip with him to sydney and melbourne, made new friends, found a job which i like and the people there are really nice, had no trouble staying together with him and things are still going great for us both, much fun and laughter shared together with friends and family, family and loved ones are all well and healthy, work's been manageable and i'm learning lots, leave's been approved for coming bangkok trip, my eyes are fully healed and i can now wear contacts and we finally got the bid for the car!

hopefully 2006 will be just as good! or even better! hee!

happy new year everyone!!!

my leave has been officially approved by my boss!!! woohoo!!!

so bangkok here i come! i am soooo looking forward to this WELL-DESERVED break from work!

i can't wait to spend some good quality time with sherwin too!

meanwhile i am gathering tips from friends and colleagues on where to eat, shop and play.....

so if you have any suggestion(s), please share it with me!!! thanks!

all i can say is mummy's cooking is still the best!!!!!

went crazy gorging on her oyster black sauce chicken, fried wantons, stir fried veggies and potato carrot soup.

yumz yumz yumz.

even if the fish soup at the hawker is nice or if the yong tau foo at the food court is nice,

nothing can ever beat mummy's cooking for sure. hehehehe......

i can't exactly describe how i feel right now.

i am tired but my mind is still racing.

instead of dreading tmr, i am looking forward to it.

i just hope i have a good rest tonight!!!!

right, so i have been working for 3 months.

actually i've been trying hard not to talk about work but i have come to realise that work is all i've been doing for the past 3 months. in fact, i spend soooooo much more time at work than at home. and most of the time i spend at home is spent sleeping.

i'm now a confirmed permanent staff, which is good news. but of course, much more responsiblities too. these 2 weeks are going to be hectic, like a race against time to get things done. sooo many things, so little time. but it's good experience and exposure. it's also what i've always wanted to do. i do get butterflies and knots in my stomach, feel my fingers tremble on the keyboard when i am figuring what to type or draft out, feel my heart beat faster and faster as the time goes ticking by and feel my eyes straining harder and harder while doing my work. and it's only the end results that will determine if i have worked hard and smart enough. whatever it is, i am really enjoying my work now even though i have been working until pretty late these days. at least, for once and for now, there is job satisfaction in what i am doing!!!! hee!

gotta go sleep now.... tmr is a brand new day..... bring it on!!! RAAARRR!!!

haven't been writing much cos haven't been having much time on hand and there aren't much things happening at the moment except for work. well, anyway i've been good. haven't been able to do anything else except for work during weekdays. have been trying to get alot of rest during the weekends and get more fun too.

the days have been passing by really fast. i guess that's an indication that the company is making me work pretty hard for them. unlike how i used to complain to family and friends about how i had nothing to do in the office, i now have too much to do until sometimes i have no time to even take a breather. but sometimes i still take a break and chit chat with some friends online. heeheehee.

haven't been spending much time with friends recently but i finally met up with the girls yesterday for drinks and chicken wings in celebration of kym's birthday! we were like hungry hippos, ordering away like there's no tomorrow and stuffing our faces with food and booze. had a great time as usual but the night ended with the heavy rain, us hiding under an indian man's roadside stall with a huge-ass umbrella, an imbecile who stole our cab even when the 4 of us shouted 'NO IT'S OUR CAB!!!', a taxi-driver who was pretty funny and provided some entertainment for us on the way home.

yesterday was also my first event. we're one of the sponsors of a microsoft event, held at suntec convention centre. learnt alot from this event and i'm looking forward to more to come. the event was pretty successful i would say, but somehow i feel that our company could have done better with the cooperation of some more employees. there're alot of things to be improved on and i am sure i can bring changes to the company. right now, i'm just glad that at least i didn't cock up anything! hahaha....

ok gonna sleep now! goodnight!

TO a very very special friend......

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KYM!!!

 

 

as i was typing away on the computer this morning, a guy came in shouting out my name, "grace choo! grace choo!". immediately i replied "yup!?!". and he reached out his hand with a tub of ben & jerry's! i was pretty shocked and it took some time before it registered in me that it IS a tub of BEN & JERRY's!!! and just as i was thinking who would COURIER me a tub of B&J, i saw a note on the tub and immediately i recognised the handwriting! it's my sneaky friend KYM CHUA!!! hahahaha!!!!

i was really really surprised by her. never in my dreams would i dream that someone would send me a tub of ice-cream! it's a really pleasant surprise and i called her immediately to thank her for being sooooo thoughtful and for making my day!!! it's such a sweeeet gesture that left me smiling for the rest of the day!

i'm truly blessed with this wonderful friend of mine.... and i can't keep it inside me anymore.... I LOVE YOU KYMMIE!!!! *muakz*

P/S: i hope no one steals my B&J from the pantry fridge. will KILL anyone who does so!!!

there's always a first for everything and yesterday was the first time i had food poisoning. it was bad.... i felt all weak and so much pain in the stomach that i didn't want to go work at all. called office and told them i was sick and will be on mc for the day. felt really bad cos i was in charge of something in the office yesterday and in the end that plan couldnt be carried out cos of my condition. luckily my boss was nice enough to even call me and ask me how am i feeling and told me not to worry and just carry out the plan on monday instead. phew! went to see a doc in the morning, took medicine and slept away most of the day. didnt even have the appetite to eat anything!

woke up today feeling much better. stomach is still abit cranky but it's not as bad as yesterday. appetite is also much better and somehow i keep on having cravings for fishball kway teow soup! from yesterday night till today i still keep on thinking of fishballs! but sherwin is too lazy to go get them for me :(

i want my fishballs!!! especially those big, round, got bouncy bouncy texture kind! :P
