bAcK to E rEal WorlD

aLAS i have returned home. I say a lot of soul searching was done, that's what this girl always needs, time away to reflect, to be a better person. In many ways, my time there saw me at my worst, engaging in vices and partying so much. Looking back I still say it was well spent and I'm back to my real world. Hongkong seemed much like a fantasy island to me. With the sea winds that got me chilly to the winter atmosphere that made me feel I was very much in dreamland..
Often I was on my own, undoubtedly.. it is unlike me to dine alone or chill by myself but it was a refreshing experience. Wouldn't do it here in Singapore coz I simply have all the company I can ask for but o'er there.. Being alone in the day seemed cool for those few days.

Now, I sit in the new office, taking my break from all the mess I've left off over the past 2 weeks. It's good to be back on the ball..

But .. there'll always be a part of me that pines for dear wintery Hongkong.. and the romance that lies behind.. =)

Cool HK! n TAKESHI!!!!!

GreetinGS FrOM HONgKoNG!!!!

It's the 4th day of my trip and it's been wondeRRRful!!!!!!! Finally found some time to relax and let the whole world know about me again!!!

Me being the party animal of late visited LAN KWAI FONG the 1st and 3rd nite and it was kinda packed w guai lous the first time.. but the 2nd time was a visit to Club HeiHei.. Man.. Hip hop was superb!! drinks were ex and gave me a hangover this morning... So bad that it spilled over to the evening and Dominic's drive up Vistoria Peak almost got me puking!! Thank God puke wasn't too bad and I enjoyed the food and view up there.. fine dining i say.. and besides my spicilicious green curry there was goose liver! soft and mushy but very very tasty ah!!

I've been hanging out with Hongkies, American's so much I'm starting to speak weird.. I've lost my sense of singlish.. gosh.. maybe it's good in a way huh.. So Company's with Lynn, Daliza and Monic and they talk so funny it's like stand up comedy!

Ok nobody can put a face to the people I'm talking about and maybe uninterested .. but THIS IS MY BLOG and I chatter away in my world! Ha!!

I love Hongkong this time round and next one will be a romantic trip.. the lights and all set the stage for all that mushy talk but where's the COMPANY!!!!! Nope definitely not whiny Lynn.., .. hope she doesn't hear this!

Gtg my 15 mins on the comp's up..
I give Hongkong 4 stars outa 5!

hi all

to all i haven't been managed to update due to the continous workload that spilled over to the cool-off period.. I am heading for my little holiday..

Seems that I've got loads to get this trip but for those who specifically need anything, do sms coz I'm gonna be roaming.. and if u need to get something that may be costly and I've lack of funds you might wanna do a transfer or something.. just in case i really run outa cash...

Alrighty.. all at home.. enjoy.. while i enter rejuvenation!
don't miss me too much =) !!!! coz I'm already missin ya'll .. my friday group!!!

e journey,,

thru familiar paths
yet unfamiliar company
unfailing change
unlikely possibilities
we struggle with the journey
only to let down
our destiny ; His plan
I give it up ...

Life's a journey
we make the most of
or sulk about..

I chose the earlier..
perhaps that way,
greater pleasures appear...

Lord be my motivator,my strength, my provider.. my sunshine!

Christmas .. 23days

Roamed the streets , christmas songs playing, people shopping, Christmas decor at it's best...
something's missing.. I've always been able to complete the season's joy with that missing piece.. right now.. ??
Of late, I've tasted success, I've been down and up again.. been able to achieve what I aim to.. but one thing lays unachieved.. lies deep within.. you know ... one of you knows and i know you know..
Oh dear, I'm talking in riddles once again..is that what u say about me? ha.. nette gets cynical sometimes.. it's been years and some memories still remain fresh in my spaceless head.. why i wonder... till the light shines .. i need light to pierce thru the part of me that often still dreams and wonder if somewhere out there.. we'll leave it as that...
Off to Indo land tmr.. all who know what I'm up to ... pray for me.. =) hope I return a better person.. in some way or other...

Virgin trip after the rob

Instead of heading to pursue the pleasures of my space, my time, my things to do .. Mum realised that I was taking the day off and made me Driver! Yes the Virgin expedition to JB after being robbed the last time..

For those not in the know, I was being robbed at nope, not "knife point" but syringe point, with the blardy drug addict looking guy claiming he had AIDS..

Anywayz, this trip wasn't all that enjoyable coz I had to go with "the brother" aka "the tyrant/dictator" of the family. Not forgetting the horrid jam that lasted almost an hour from the petrol kiosk( a stone's throw away from the checkpoint) to the checkpoint itself. Apart from that.. I'm glad I spoilt my mum with a new gift and meself too.. spent $300+ on hers and my new pair of eyes!!! yes the optician claimed that my eyes have deteriorated with the intense usage of the computers in office and home.

Aiyah.. wat is this.. I'm losing weight, eyes going down.. not enuff sleep.. this HAS TO CHANGE!!! I'm starting on a pamper myself activity from now till.. I return home.

Now.. I'm idling in the office.. agAIN !@#@!#!@!!!!!! waiting for colleagues to go for the party the big LAO BAN is throwing for being no 1 in the company!!! means I'm one of the elites in the company.. ahahaha.. fancy me boasting over here!!

Ha, i just heard the tummy growl, time to dig in!

it's CLOSING TIME!

I'm finally back in the scene, with calmer heartbeats and in heartier moods. I realised that for once in my work life I've finally understood the meaning of "stress". It drives people UTTERLYYYY CRRAAZZZYYY!!
and strange habits like forgetting to eat my meals, extreme exhaustion yet not being able to sleep, springing out of bed in the morning...

Now... that's OVER!!!!! it's the end of November!!! Siu Gang!!!! hahhahaha.. bonus is fat.. yippeeee...

Oh well.. enough abt work, Kelv says talking about work is uninteresting huh?? So let's talk about life.. Ha?? but I just lost the meaning of life with all this work... so let's talk about life when i start getting a hang of the interests in life which will start TOMORROW!!

First I need to sleeeeeeeeppppppp until SONG then excercise and tan.. then catch up on the latest news of what's that "couple found dead on top of each other in a car in a 'lovers hang out' "SCANDALOUS!

and .. hmm.. I just realised also that I'm gonna be alone roaming the streets of Hongkong for 7 days.. how interesting.. Lynn will be in school .. and my other friends will be with families and i'll only have playmates when the sunsets... SO...i need to go down to KinoKuniya to check out what to do in the day in cool HongKong.. anybody else intending to be my playmate in the day??? heh... YIKES..feel like i'm advertising for an escort..EEEks!

anywayz.. got an eerriitating call now so i'll be back!!

invitation to cOmMenT

WOW! Na, you're right.. these weird posts keep coming in..
Anywayz, I've just changed the setting so here's the invitation to EVERYONE To COMMENT!!! just try to be nice to the newbie here k.. =)

Anyhow, it's 930pm and I'm still in the office.. taking some 5 mins off to bLLOOOGGG!!!

I am so looking forward to HONG KONG!!!

Oh well gotta try to finish up my work now..

Na.. hope you enjoyed that lousy surprise I've arranged..

As for the SPA.. Let's go girls!!!!

still in thought..

I guess you're right Stan.. people tend to be in regret when they don't give their all.. but many times people who came outa misery b4 tend to wanna use their mind even though the hearts dying to be at work! Maybe we can say .. in denial.. actually i think we've gotta use both in a sensible way.. heart and mind should just work together...

Easier said than done...

PASsIoN

Spoke to a colleague yesterday, he said that this career isn't for him, coz of the immense stress, he feels that family is important and he's married at a young age of 23. What can I say, settled married boy's mentality. I agreed to a certain extend on the commitment that's required at home but didn't agree on just staying on the job if it wasn't bringing much satisfaction.

My take on the general picture towards work was different. I think PASSION brings us a long way. Just like a relationship.. you only pull through if you have the passion to pursue it and make it right. Just like work, no point staying somewhere to work if it doesn't make you happy. Work & relationships work the same way.

But then again.. how do we enjoy work.. I don't know.. I just do.. and perhaps the job you're in is for you when you know it makes you happy. So the guy/gal you're with is the ideal one when u just KNOW IT. When there should be qns asked ... you know, there's something wrong.. GET OUTA IT!

Coz of experiences.. I've come a long way, pessimistic in a way yet positive in many other ways. I'm more of a pragmatist. Ruler is my head, less of my heart. Perhaps I'll go a longer way like that. But I'm a slave to romance.. oops .. I just contradicted meself.

Hmm.. I shall be in thought fer a while.

stress !!

Stress is bad, it's kicking in like a whirlwind. Sanity is me. I've got the last month of the financial year and targets are mad~... all i wanna do is look forward to cool hongkong in december!

Crowdè bad .. no horrid!! 10 steps took about 15 mins, no space to breathe and then CASUALTY ! I stepped on some extremely sharp thing, pulled it outa my toe , walked to my friends and realized I was bleeding profusely.. till now, I haven’t a clue what that thing was.. all I remember was seeing splatters of blood all over the dance floor in my circumference. Good that I drank, I usually feel faint at the sight of blood!!

I’d love to do this again gals! It was super dooper!

DA VINCI CODE = cheap thrill

I just attended a talk about dan brown’s book and the extent of truth covered in there..
Now I find it a Cheap thrill and so ya'll ... be a fool no more!
Let me upset dan’s worshippers..

The Priory Of Sion- (he claims to be a secret society and seeks the maintain the goodness of the Bible) In truth, The priory of Sion was a secret society perpetuated by the anti-semitic trickster, Frenchman Pierre Plantard, this guy got together with his counterparts to make people believe the existence of this society and was later made to declare in Court that it was a HOAX! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Priory_of_Sion

The glass pyramid at the entrance of the Lourve – he claims – consists of 666 panes of glass – n was part of an occultic movement.
The actual Lourve’s glass pyramid site states that it is made up of 673 glass panes; 603 diamond shaped and 70 triangular panes. http://www.louvre.or.jp/louvre/presse/en/activites/archives/anniv.htm

The Last Supper painting apparently has a woman on the right hand side of Jesus. This, Dan claims is Mary Magdalene, Jesus’s wife! Now, looking back at historical evidence, it was very common to paint young men in affeminate ways so because Leonardo did that, Dan simply saw a potential excitement in a twist to say that it was Mary Magdalene. All other factors aside- this was merely an artist’s painting so why the controversy with an artist’s impression.?? Also, Leonardo came into existence in 1452.. he wasn't close to being born during the Last Supper...

There’s a lot more I learnt but with 3 facts proving his book to be absolutely fiction I think we should start our own research instead of being taken in by an author who had insufficient research and distorts history. Knowledge and Faith goes hand in hand, we have been given wisdom to discern so make good of our God given talents!

Opening day @Zouk

It’s been a while since I hung out with the SIM chaps and it was awesome. Right on the opening day of the new Zouk. First thought , LOOKS LIKE KL ZOUK! With the white walls and architecture.. no sense of originality… and honestly, I don’t see much change in the interior of winebar- why didn’t they think of expanding the area. Nevertheless, it was a good time hanging out w you guys , Wayne, Vic, Tom, Low Jim,lian,mar and err… drank a leetle too much to remember now. O yes, the drinks at winebar maintains it’s signature.. never diluted, very potent.
The "Brim"toast

It was a good time catching up and toasting “Brim” to me guys! I actually find it disgusting..@$#$%!

Headed home-totally senseless, half deaf and my entire world swaying. I knocked out at the sight of the sheets! It’s been a long time since I had such fun! Thanks guys!

Here are the pics..

i divulge.

I've finally taken the next bold step, to be more daring in the information I divulge over the world wide web. I always kept to simple talk because in nature, I am a private person. I prefer sharing extremely personal details solely with close friends.
Now why the change? Perhaps I've grown to the next level, a tad bit more daring and willing to expose. I've always kept to writing journals since 12 and I hope to make this regular and permanent from now.
I don't intend to introduce myself to a vast extend but just for the beginning.. they say a blog says a lot about the person. I wouldn't doubt that. I like to write well- (don't think I've reached that level yet), I like to be simple, I like to be alone sometimes to reflect on the person I want to be - often I tend to be too serious in the way I handle life. Could be due to past experiences that mould me into such a person. Having said all that, my take still stands, that we only live once and we've gotta make the most of it. I can be serious and happy so what the heck. Holidaying brings me greatest pleasure. It burns a hole in my pocket but I don't care coz it doesn't make me poor.
Apart from these material pleasures, family and friends carry an immense amount of importance.. Of course , the special other half comes in the picture too. I was put here to love and share and enjoy. Anything else, I'll uncover along my journey.
This is nette. Take me or leave me.
