the goodbye which wasnt tat hard...

my last day on last friday, 22nd.

was also the 75mth of tatnchele...AMAZING. blur me tot it was our 6th yr, but in act it's 7 and counting! =) i hope we stay the same or better. Loves him.

ok well back to the last day. hmmm had to clear work till near the end of the day cos it was just too much work left for me... i didnt have time to relax and chill like wad pple usually do on their last day. towards the end of the day, had tat mini gathering of couple of minutes with my dept pple. It was awkward. cos i had to say some farewell speech or sth, and cos the managers and DD was away, no one did the "thank u for ur service part". then Katsy handed me the farewell gift [canon selphy printer in striking pink!] and hand-made giant card from my dear colleagues. I appreciated the effort katsy and shawn put in for my farewell card --they made it! but was quite disappointed when i read the msgs on the card. 19 pple, yet 17 wrote the same msg -ALL THE BEST. Well did they have nth much to say to me or wad? i had expected a more personal msg... ok maybe tat shows we are not tat close?

After work was dinner with 8 of my dept pple at Shokudo Bugis. It was a nice dinner... we shared gossips and laughs and crap. mostly the crap came frm shawn. hahahaz...

I thought leaving would be hard. but it turned out that it wasnt tat bad... no tears, no sadness.

which is really surprising. i had hoped for a more emo parting. haha...

still, hope we can stay in contact and continue meeting up. =)

PICS !~

my gift for them!

the sudden change...

it's amazing how things can change over a day...
ytd there i was blogging bout my excitement of my upcoming job, and now officialy i'm back to the jobless status. Cos tat bank called went back on their words and changed some conditions of their offer, which i foudn it ridiculous. It made me lose confidence and interest in the job and doubt their credibility. I felt it was unfair to me... So i rejected their offer. I know it was bad of me to reject at the last minute, but it's better than accepting and regret in future. i really hope I'm not making all the wrong decisions.
So glad to have support of my dear friends/ colleagues who stood by me and gave me encouragement & advice, esp Dar. I really appreciate it...
really hope that whatever following decisions i make, it would be to my benefit.

I gotta job liao! ~ =)
glad that the interviews went well... I think i had quite abit of luck this time, and had a choice.
so anyway I've accepted one of the bank's offer and beginning work in Feb. I actually accepted the one with lower pay but more prospects ( i think)... so pray for me. i hope my decision is right this time.
I bought royce chocolates for my colleageus for my farewell...hehe and i heard i've got a hand-made card by dearie Shawn+Katsy. so lookign fwd to it. but having mixed feelings bout my last day this fri. It'll be a hard time for me to bid goodbye cos the pple are really nice. And the anxiety as usual about my new job...
hmmm I'm really glad to have made friends with some of dar's clique. Cos I feel that mostly they'll jus treat me as tart's GF, but i realise some of them really regard me as friend. They sms to concern me when they see my faebook status or ask bout my job search. I'm touched.

ok just this short update. Dearies pls date me cos i'll be free from next week till 1st Feb!

good luck to me.. =)

hmmm finally after weeks of sending my applications... i see some light. I started receivig calls for interviews. hehe... wish me luck!

hmmm actually enjoyed dinner with my family last night. It was rare that all of us sit down tgt to have a simple dinner nowadays, cos not everyone make it home by dinner time and most of the time dad is working OT. so we have been eating by ourselves, or even when mum cooks, we eat at diff timing. I missed that warm feeling of dinner small chats and crap. I forgotten to include inmy resolution 2010- to spend more quality time with family + control my temper.
I'm always impatient and short-tempered when i'm home... I know tat's bad and it's cos we tend to take family for granted... ok but still i cant stand my sis at times =P

Gathering at 2nd aunt's house tml... we used to have gatherings often... but not after wepassed teenage years. it may be simple dinners, TV and stuff, but it's good to see each other once in a while to catch up rather than only during CNY. I think within me, i still value family alot...
wonder if cousins will be going, I was actually looking fwd.. but i may not go cos it's a Sat, and afterall cinder and sis has work and may not be going.
i wish to have dar with me for all my family gatherings and stuff, cos i wanna be with him while i also wanna be with them... it's just like why i join him with his family and friends, or even co events... cos to me, when u love someone, u'll try to love/accept the impt pple to him too..

super tiring weekend

the past weekend was tiring. not cos of late nights or various programmes, but cos i was too tired from work on Thurs and Friday. Stayed quite late for a project which strained my eyes so much.... 500++ accounts to rectify. my eyes almost popped out. Well count me "lucky" i kena before i leave... so i wasn't really in the weekend mood.
Sat was shopping at town with dar... major shopping for him for CNY stuff. Sinfully, i eyed on some items i tried! that includes Bebe's basic tee and Adidas basic tee in striking pink... hmmmn they are just basics so I'm struggling whether to get them (not cheap!)
I dun intend to do major shopping for CNY this yr, since now and then I've bought some stuff which are still unused. hehe...
Sunday- went for lunch at Popeye AMK -it's opened! then went for a movei at Cathay, HEAR ME. It's a really moving Taiwan movie about love. Me and dar enjoyed the show... Really touched by the story. But if u are thinking of catching the show, be prepared cos the movie is quite a quiet one as they use sign language to communicate most of the time. But really, u wont regret watching it =)
Driving was ok ytd... but didnt learn anything new. haha... would skip lessons till end of this mth cos my instrtor's schedule cant fit me in... well i'll take it as a break then.

e looOng looOng weekend

it has been a gOOod looong weekend again ~

haha guess it'll be quite a while before we can enjoy such long PH?

been a fun-filled one for me... very Busy thou. Busy playing =P

i dun even noe where to start... but anyway on Eve, the last day of 2009, worked morning shift and went back to dar's house to help him with the preparation for our BBQ. As usual, he was the MAN who settled almost everything. From shopping of the BBQ food, prep to all the utensils as well. hehe this time I had a lil more contribution compared to the past few times. I made the pork with asparagus/golden mushroom and prepared marinated "packs" of golden mushroom.

Came evening ws the BBQ... We had to make do with trays and small pit borrowed from Mund (thanks!!) cos we didnt have a bigger pit like the other time.

the BBQ was sumptous~ we welcomed the new yr together with another group of friendly strangers beside us. They offered to have a new yr Yum Seng with us... hahaha.

I teased 2 of the couples in our clique by asking them to kiss for the camera. Usually when we come up with such ideas, me and dar wont Kena [ i dunno why but we just wont] but that day... they Sabo us.

I rejected straightaway...then dar suddenly turned and kissed me. Omg... haha i was so caught by surprise! cos usually he wont do that, we have nv kissed in front of his friends, even if it's just a peck on the face. They were shocked too. haha i was blushing all the way. They purposely said the pic wasnt taken in time... so we smudged again but was tricked as they actually filmed us!

certainly would be a memorable moment for us. =)

Over the past few days, we had been hanging out with his friends for shopping, supper, KTV and stuff... Ytd was the KTV. We went to some Ulu club in Sembawang to sing... it's the 2nd time I joined them for KTV session cos dar dun like to go cos he doesn't sing. I only stayed a while cos I wanted to recoup my lost sleep and be prepared for my driving lesson the following day. I was glad that they commented i sang well for "zui xin fu de shi" by Liang Wen Yin... most importantly cos darling thinks so too.

TodaY... i super-lucky day... I went for facial at noon. Then ling acc me for lunch at AMK cos I had spare time before my driving lesson at 3 plus. We randomly walked around after tat... went to Fairprice and happened to see a promo for the seaweed Tao Kae Noi. Every purchase was entitled to one sure-win lucky dip... the prizes were sampling packs, eco-bags, etc, and the grand prize was a giant-sized doll. We jokingly said if we won the doll it'll be take pains to bring it back. We bought the snack and participated in the lucky-dip. i chose the first ball i managed to feel...and i won the grand prize!! i was so so shocked... it was really a giant one! i had hoped to win the mini doll cos it was cuter, but it was luck that i won the big prize. Dar and me kept laughing after we redeemed the prize. It was really huge and so funny. He brought it home while i went for my driving lesson... Today's driving was alot better =) but i still have slight problems in managing the biting point. i'll jia you!
