Happy New Year!

It's been a year of ups and downs. I've graduated, got a job, lost some love, lost the most important love and found some new ones. Now i've got a new life, new found relatives, new job and new things to grumble about.

Christmas was good this year. Well, my definition of good is not calculated with the amount of or the value of gifts, it's because i've got my favourite cousins, nieces and nephews with me and we had an excellent time. I just hope that the Christmases down the years will be as good or if not, even better. Hope you equally enjoyed yours.

It's only a few more hours to another year and let me wish you a happy new year before it's too late. I'm not used to having new year resolution because i never seem to fulfil them but i hope during the coming year, i can excel career wise and see some results by the 3rd quarter. I also want to be a better person and this should be a lifelong aim instead of an annual one. I also hope i can find true love... Someone who loves me and whom i can snuggle with early in the morning refusing to drag myself out of bed to get to work then he'll drop me at work before bringing himself to his own. I just hope that i don't have the same resolution same time next year.

Have a great new year! Cheers!

Transformer!

Transformer Cybertron was my favourite cartoon and i love Optimus Prime, the leader of the group, just like a cute guy with this chiselled face and multi-talented. I thought i'll never watch transformer again since i'm all grown up and such. Guess what? The Transformer movie will be out next year. Got to watch this...

Watch the trailer!

Feeling Old?

I do not want to sound like a broken recorder so i am indeed repeating this here one last time. Some people have already heard it and probably sick and tired of hearing it so i'm writing this as a form of closure for myself.

I'm feeling old.

I'll be having my birthday soon and no, i'm not hinting for gifts to flow in. I've never ever felt old before. I've always been very chirpy and maybe a little too chirpy for some and in fact, may be unbearable to many. Over the years, i've toned down alot but i can't help being hyperactive when the sugar level repeatedly hit its new high everyday. I'm not aiming to be the most popular person around but i have hit certain lows emotionally when i feel like i've made others felt disturbed by my actions.

I'm feeling old not so much because i'm not in any stable relationship or that my life's not going according to plan. I'm feeling old when i think of my age and i'm still stuck at a career low. It may be premature to even say career low when i've only started work for 6 months but i do feel that i'm not moving fast enough and my biological clock is ticking real fast. Yet again i have to stress that biological clock is not about being a mother, getting married, giving births after births, just physically you can feel your body ticking towards failing health. Back to career, i don't know if certain choices i'm making is right. Maybe i should just wait and watch and see what happens. Maybe i shouldn't be so ambitious and expect things to move faster than i hope for. Maybe i should just feel contented to even have a job. Maybe... Just maybe...

Crashed - The bloke's heart i mean...



Saw this on Sydney Morning Herald and thought it'd be cool to share. For the full story, go to SMH.

I bet the bunch of guys behind him are laughing their big fat arses off. That's like ouch, my favourite car just gone in less than 60 secs. I could have brought it for a nice and slow ride before you crash it into the bright yellow pole. Don't ever do it again, now pass me the key for the new Gallardo you bought.

What I Want For Christmas... A Black iPod Nano


Heard from friends that Coca-cola gave its employees a limited edition iPod nano each in Coca-cola's red and with their logo engraved at the back. How lucky is that? All i want for Christmas is my own iPod nano. I have an iPod elephant right now and it doesn't go with my chic and slim image haha ya right... Ok my image now does suit the elephant one cuz i'm short and chubby but hey, i have dreams alright.

Maybe i'll get myself a birthday present... Oh please let me clear my credit card bills...

Love Of My Life



The Love Of My Life
She gave me her everything. I've tried to give her my all but it's not enough. The love will live in me forever. I love her. I never knew i'm capable of loving someone so much. I don't think i can love anyone else more than i love her. Are you taking good care of yourself in heaven? Are you having a ball with Grandpa? Do you know i really miss you? Do you know life has lost it's meaning without you? Do you know i love you? I really do. Can i hug you?

When A Man Loves A Woman

I was just talking about this yesterday and i got this email today. Really wanna share this with all of you. This is being loved.

1. If you like her...ASK HER OUT already!!!

2. When you hug her, put your ARMS around her WAIST and hold her close.

3. When you walk next to her, get as CLOSE as you can to her.

4. If she's the only one in your life, TELL HER.

5. ALWAYS let her knows how much you like her, love her, or think about her.

6. Give her presents and cards for no reason, SHE WILL RETURN THE FAVOUR...ALWAYS.

7. If she hangs up on you, call her right back.

8. Always offer to pay. If she says NO twice, then let her pay but make a deal that you get to pay next time (offer a date too!).

9. Kiss her lightly every chance you get.

10. Look in her eyes and kiss her on the lips, forehead, or nose.

11. If she says she's cold, don't be an idiot and say "Me too." and stand there; give her your jacket or just simply hold her in your arms.

12. Don't force her to do anything she's not comfortable with.

13. Invite her to dinner or somewhere where you can talk, instead of the movies.

14. Try not to ask her if she's mad at you EVERY TIME you speak to her.

15. Always tell her you LOVE her only if you really mean it.

16. DON'T pressure her to do anything she isnt READY to do. When she is ready, she will let you know. She just wants everything to be more SPECIAL and PERFECT. So appreciate what she does do with you.

17. DON'T go and tell your friends anything that happens between you two, cause it will hurt her and make her mad...and it will NEVER happen again.

I swear by my last penny a woman wrote this.

Fun But Disastrous Trip

Hong Kong was fun as usual but you can't believe what actually happened to me. i shall keep you in suspense till the end of this post.

I was told a few hours before i board the plane that i'll be going straight into our Hong Kong office so we had to be in formal attire when we get on the bloody flight. Be begin with, it was already torturous to wake up early in the morning let alone having to work immediately after landing. You may call us lucky, our flight was delayed slightly but it didn't quite made a difference. From the airport express station, we actually walked to the office, on foot of course, lugging ridiculously heavy luggages. Well you see, i do not travel light at all. My toiletries bag itself weighed a tonne. By the time i got to the office, i can deflated entirely.

There was no computer for me so i didn't quite work till a hour later or something while i waited for my comp to be set up. I could have gone to the hotel to take a shower, would have felt much fresher. Not that it mattered, my colleagues there were wonderful people.

Friday night was a night of food and more food, drinks and more drinks and i loved it. Well didn't had much party, we were just too exhausted. But Saturday night was almost insane. We club hopped till the wee hours in the morning and i have to admit, it's been a long time since i've done that and i really enjoyed myself. Having a boss who is a party animal himself, it was "almost" all expenses paid.

Treasure hunt on Saturday was unexpectedly fun. My team was really competitive and we won ourselves each a HKD 100 Dymocks voucher. Photos can be found via a link on this blog. Look for my favourite colleague holding her swanky cam. Other photos can be viewed on http://www.lawalliancetreasurehunt.zoomshare.com - Enjoy!

Sunday was the beginning of disaster. When i left in the cab heading to my next hotel, i realised i lost HKD 2000. I quickly waved at my colleagues who were heading to the airport and they thought i was saying goodbye. However i did managed to stop them to rob them of their last dollar.

Monday was worst. You wouldn't believe the amount of bad luck i carried in me. I got pickpocketed of another HKD 900 after i spent only 100 for lunch. I didn't quite had mood for the rest of the trip until i bought myself some stuffs which included a wallet to keep my monies organised. I left for the airport early cuz i had no more money to shop and i probably maxed out my credit card by then.

And you think my bad luck should have ran out by now. Nope it didn't. I bought this gorgeous pair of shoes, wasn't cheap. Got home, realised both sides were of different sizes and i couldn't fit my right leg in at all. Now i've got to send it back to Hong Kong and hopefully my colleague can find the shady shop and hope that she could change it for me.

All in all, i still enjoyed my trip. I was glad at least i came home safe and sound. Money is going to be the last issue to bother me. I may be poor but i do not wanna stay unhappy as well. I'm looking forward to my next Hong Kong trip already.
