i had a really bad dream last nite... i dreamt that twinkie fought with a black cat and d*ed!!! in my despair i took him to a vet and i was wailing at the hospital, crying that "he's half my life!" the vet promised that he would resurrect him with this jab... but twinkie did not wake up anymore!
i woke up in shock.. also because someone called me at 5am! anyway after that dream, i woke up this morning and laid next to twinkie.. deciding to be nice to him from now onwards. (of coz i'm always very nice to him) so today right after work, i took him for his jog even though i was nursing a terrible headache. and just now, i tried to play hide and seek with him.. in my haste to hide, i slipped and fell in the toilet..... so now i'm nursing 3 bruises in addition to my headache... @#%$@!%@#%

natas fair is coming! i'm so excited! this is the first time i'm going to the fair because i have sth i wanna look out for: my maiden trip to japan! it's really weird that i haven't been to japan even though i've been studying japanese for a quite a few years now. so that's it! this year i'm going!
actually i asked quite a few pp to go with me on a free and easy tour but somehw no one can make it for this year and everyone told me, wat about next year? spring? and i say ok, yes, sure! now i'm thinking next year hw may trips do i have to go to fulfil all these promises! haha... but then again, from previous experiences, maybe next year no one will be able to go with me.
now i'm contemplating between a trip to hokkaido or tokyo. i'm thinking since it's gg to be winter, make sense to go hokkaido rite? but then again, i've done my market research, seems like hokkaido's much more expensive than tokyo.. hmm hope that i can get a good deal at the fair. anyway i'm going with my mom, will be a good girl and go on a guided tour this time! 楽しみね!!

Actually i'm supposed to be at class right now.. but somehow today i'm feeling very lethargic and an overwhelming inertia to leave my house. thus i decided that i would be lazy (just this once) and miss my lesson for today. maybe it's because i'm getting older? i get tired more easily and would prefer to stay at home during the weekend instead of going out. but of couse that's no excuse for missing my lessons (i paid for it afterall!) thus i've decided that i should spend the day more fruitfully later.
just met with some uni classmates yesterday, seems that everyone is looking for a job right now. is it the 2年之痒? hahaha... it's exactly 2 years since our graduation and everyone seems to have a clearer idea of what they want or what they realise they do not want. Doing design is such a niche profession which most of the time earn peanuts as compared to other industries. we study the same no of years to get our honours and sacrifice maybe even more time and sleep to earn our degree only to graduate and realize the massive gap between us and other graduates. when i first started out, my jc classmates were always shocked at my starting pay especially for an honours student. one might think that money is not everything but i believe that everything is about money right? seeing this classmate who used to be quite passionate about design preparing to take a leap into another profession, i think reality has taken another victim. I'm glad i've decided to move away from that earlier on, not that i'm exactly satisfied with where i am now but at least i can look forward now.
which sets me thinking again, should i enrol for another course concurrently? hmmm........

i like to read other people's blogs. it gives me a peek into their daily life, especially friends whom i could not keep in touch with.
i used to read his blog, it happened one day when i saw it on msn. so out of curiosity, i typed it in and was drawn into his world. at first it was an occasional visit, seeing if he's ok, wondering what he's doing now. den it became a habit, and i followed his words closely, trying to decipher the meaning behind his rambles.
but today i realised that i misunderstood something all this while. looking at the surface of things, i thought this had happened and was worried. but today i realised that i was quite silly and actually something quite the opposite had happened. i do not know actually the reality but i start to worry about her instead. but because i can finally see the situation clearly now, i realise that i should let go of something which i refused to let go all these years.
so i deleted his blog address. and i swear i feel better now!
tomorrow will be a better day!

it was a very sad week last week. a secondary school classmate passed away. i have known her for more than 10 years now and we were in the same class for 3 of my 4 secondary school years.
yet we were never close. i remembered that i used to not like her, for reasons which i feel ashamed to acknowledge now.
yet i cried very badly during her wake, i don't know why to, just that why is life so cruel to take away everything from her when she's in the prime of her life, when everything was going well.
i feel ashamed to be a friend, i knew that she was ill a few months ago. i wanted to visit but things alway crop up, or so i claim. in the end, i did not offer any help when she was in suffering. maybe that's why i cried, i'm ashamed of myself.
ironically i saw alot of my classmates whom i did not see for many years. i even felt uneasy seeing some of them, so many years has passed, everyone seems to have changed a lot. yet they said i looked exactly the same. i wonder... we talked about class outing, she brought us together again. but no one seems to be taking the initiative after that night. maybe i should do something. maybe.
life can be so unexpected, this made me rethink my whole life again. what am i pursuing so far, and what do i really want. but i'm still thinking, this is such a tough question. but one definite step is to treasure those around you and not take anything for granted. i'm learning to do that now.
so sorry, thank you and good bye HY.

WMW's Dnd was held at trader's hotel 2 weeks ago. I never had such a good DnD before, although i've only been to one other Dnd.. hehe... ok minus the prizes (LnY's prizes are unbeatable and you have a more than 50% chance of winning, though i heard from my dear frenz that their luck are not so good this year.. hiak hiak), everything was good for VMW's Dnd. The food was great, i was really full. i love scallops by the way, and there were endless supply of scallops and yes... MUSHROOMS, which of course made me a happy girl that night.
The theme for our Dnd was Movie Characters and everyone dressed up for the ocassion, including me. well you know me, i'm really excited by this kind of events so of course i made it a point to dress up! i pondered for quite a long time what i wanted to wear and in the the end of course i decided to be something which would be in line with my character. Below is a special report on that day.
i love to play cards, really, so i decided to be the Ace of hearts in Alice in Wonderland.
 I was not the only fairy character of course. We had Snow White, who came with a basket of apples to prove her authencity.  We had Bruce Lee and Pocahontas. (wat?!)  Princess Jasmine came alone. I heard she broke up with Aladdin.  Peter Pan tried to catch Jasmine's attention (or Ace of heart's?), but we know that jungle boys are not for us.  Hwang Jinyi flew down to singapore for a once in a lifetime shot with Ace of Hearts. Apparently Alice in Wonderland was her favourite bedtime story.  The Jedi lost a game of Daidee to the Ace of hearts and had alcohol overdose.  My Big boss tried to suave it up as Zorro who wore his specs via 2 pieces of rubberband outside his mask! After his son failed to make good money with his own spinoff, The Mask made a comeback despite having an apparently good life (check out the waistline!), **maybe i should mask this comment....     Flintsones decided to get some shoes while we had a complete ensemble from the Death note, complete with the notebook. Some were inspired by Jay Chou's new song and came hee-haing! Some came in modern reincarnation of White Snake, and of course we had Hwang Jinyi before and after she bacame famous. A greek princess with lovely locks also make an appearance that night, flanked by 2 charming geishas who decided to ditch the face makeup tonight. Audrey hepburn came after her breakfast at Tiffany for a shot with the Ace of Hearts. Also spotted was Mr Bean and his bear talking to a man in black. The last samurai was seen at the buffet counter eyeing the plates of sushi. The Scooby doo gang sent Velma as a representative since animals were out of bounds in this hotel. We had 3 trainee grim reapers stalking the grounds, but of course none could be as menacing as the evil witch who followed Snow white after putting the 7 dwarves to sleep. A grand finale photo was taken, but yours truly forgot to copy that into her hard disk when this report was written.  Actually i wanted to be flintsones but my colleague was cuter as fred. but here's a photo for keepsake! all in all, a great nite! all the characters were happy though none as happy as velma who won a PS3!!! congrats to her!

i'm just wondering... how many times can i sprain her ankle in a lifetime. i've kind of lost track of the no of times i did.
i can remember the very first time i sprained my ankle. I was in Pri 6, a sweet 12 year old girl with puffy hair. We were supposed to have remedial lessons that day but it was cancelled (for watever reason, i couldn't really remember tho). So what did we do? We stayed in school to play zero point! wahahah... i was pretty good at the game! i could still remember that it was a friday because we were supposed to have physical fitness test the next day which was a saturday. anyway i sprained my ankle while playing, that was the first time, little did i know that it would plague me for years to come. but one sweet thing i remember was i went to this friend's grandfather's place to treat my ankle. i kinda think that boy was very cute! hahah! hidden agenda! :)
Another time i remembered was when i was in sec school. How i sprained it i can't rem but i remembered that my classmates borrowed this chair from one of the office and wheeled me all the way back to my classroom. everyone was looking at me, but that was a fond memory. i think that the girls were secretly enjoying wheeling me around the school. ok lar, minus the pain, it was fun.
Another time i remembered was during my sec school days also, since i was still hanging out alot with the gals. we were in bishan park, cycling when i fell and sprained my ankle. but we proceeded to eat at kfc after that still. it was at thomson plaza i think. how did i endure the pain? hmmmm.....
the last ocassion i remember was last year. i thought i posted an entry of my bandaged ankle last year. can't seem to find it now.... weird. anyway that was in december too when i missed a step outside my office. of course the most classic about that was the look on weiying's face when she saw me being brought back to office. the "i can't believe it's happening again" look and she said " u fell down AGAIN....?" hahahah... but that meant i must have fall down before in her memory but i can't recall anymore incidents.... weird..........
anyway, here i am on my bed.... nursing another swollen ankle. i thot that i would pass by this year without any knocks actually but it was not meant to be.... haiz....... so let's hope something good comes out of this. for example, i get 3 days mc, since thurs is a hol and fri i'm on leave, i'll have a super long weekend! wooo hoo!

my jc class and my uni classmates are really different. for my jc classmates, the guys are really proactive. they organize activities, send us updates to keep us ermm updated and keep us entertained during outings. but my uni class guys... hmmm.... well they do turn out for outings... but they sit around and wait for us girls to provide the entertainment. that's why i am so thankful for my jc class guys, even tho they are 95% chinese high guys...
had a chalet this weekend at bottle tree park with my jc class(after disappointment from a downgrade from redang to genting to yishun :P) the one and only chalet in khatib... i mean really only one... there's only one unit and that's us! (for your info, the park is named after this tree which looks like a bottle... er hemmm.... which you see in the park.. perfect for family outings. check out the website)
haha.... it's pretty big, 3 rooms and 9 beds.... but the ting is u're like an exhibit.... the living room is all about glass windows! and everyones looks at wat u're doing the whole day. but i did enjoy the chalet. we didn't do anything extraordinary, the usual night of vice.... but the company was great... the guys brought their spouses, who were mostly enthusiastic pp who clicked well with us. but was pretty disappointed that most of the girls did not stay for the night, leaving only me and diana (sighz....) the next morning, we were preparing to leave since there was not many pp there to play mj with us. so i told the guys (who were all hooked on the PS2) "do you all want to play mj or else we are leaving" not as a threat but as a matter of fact. and promptly 2 of them sacrificed their games to play with us! diana and i were really touched! haha! seems like our class guys have finally grown up! and i met a treasured fren who went away for exchange and we did not meet for more than half a year. this fren gave me a souvenir.. a photoframe from santorini. i really quite liked it even though i didn't express it that well. it's a wonder how time changes me, in the past, if this fren had given me a photoframe, i probably would have been very upset. but now, i'm really glad to receive this present as i believed this fren had chosen this out for me. makes me feel a lot better! :D now i'm wondering if i should call up this fren and meet for dinner. one part of me wants to... but the other part of me thinks it's better to leave things like that. maybe some treasured frens are better left at a distance, that way they remain like that forever. wouldn't it be weird to meet up and realise that the topics don't click anymore and there are awkward silences. that would be so disappointing.
