Been utterly disgusted and disturbed by this video. Even more so than the little girl incident.

Not sure because you can see the woman so closely, it was such an idilic scene, she was just cooly waiting for the bank to open. In fact You can still hear her screaming after she was attacked. Within 15 mins , her life ended just like that in what was just a routine trip to the bank. She died not because she was mugged . She died because of the heartless ness of the people around her , for letting her bleed to her death. This is just utterly sick, I won't even bother to comment what in the world happen to the values of the china people . Probably all they see are $$.

Fitness sank to an all time low . Lost most of my arms strength. In fact felt giddy 3/4 tru body combat class. Sux manz, and with the stupid knee.

Stop

i should stop my pubbing and clubbing.

hmm

Stupid knee is still down! God when can it recover?! Tired of doing boring low intensity cycling n walking.. Someone pass the bags n kick pads!!

Yes Taiwan family trip book Liao , well almost family trip minus one Sis. 29th dec!!

Sick down and out..

so tired of being sick.. the whole week the weather keep turning cold.. my office is winter wonderland (2 jackets and a woolen winter scarf and i'm contemplating mittens) driving me up the wall with my runny sneezy blocked nose..

and having to keep requesting MC and working from home is a hassle and not easy at all.. considering my line of work.. but truth is.. it's really intolerable in the office :( :( :(

it's been 2 months and my knee is still painful. THere goes chionging gym, going back tkd. = not working out enough/ releasing pent up energy with the punches = blues.. = poor him who need to suffer my mood swings.. *no good*

He has been really patient with my low moods for months now..

can't wait for my family trip to taiwan! hope can book a good date !!..

meanwhile.. after clearing 8 days, i'm still having 13.5 days as at January 2012.. got days but no time to clear..

just didnt get it

By saying that singaporeans dislike foreign faces he obviously didn't get it at all.

Its not abt foreigners per se, if they are doing something useful that warrant them being a 'foreign talent' n they try to adapt to local culture that s still fine.

But it's when they are obviously nowhere near s foreign talent, refuse to adapt to local culture n force locals to adapt to theirs, that's when it gets on ppl s nerves.

I really feel those who like those loud music should just invest in a pair of gd ear phones, u know those folks on the train whose music u can gear as clearly as themselves ? I really feel b cos they have a damn lousy pair of ear phones - let music out n noises in. That's y they need to blast n the whole world can hear.

Looking forward to havin a gd break kn nov/dec .

It's a quieter birthday affair. Dinner w cell mates, sec sch frens, family bbqthanks to all these folks who got me a gift.







N of cos him who take effort to make it a nice one with me.:)

Mid Autumn Festival

Mid autumn festival during my child hood days. every year i'll reminisce about those years. You throw everything aside, pick up the sparkles & laterns, and run downstairs. There, you play with other kids, whoever is at the play ground..Run the swing with them, compete at the merry go round and see saw, play catching and simply throw all concerns into the wind and have fun.

Now i'm still eating the mooncake and drinking tea, still the same round moon, but yet now i'm busy working, stress level up and the mood is definitely different.

Those were the days..

mixed

Hmm my blogging app always throw out a word of the day and today s word is quite interesting: eye servant or in today s context , eye employee. They refer to ppl who do their job only when their boss or master is around. Interesting...

I miss going to work in casuals or in jeans and 3 quarts, I miss getting off work for weekends or public holiday and not having to worry or still having to work.

I wanna get back in momentum w my training but to think of all ppl, I would actually lose my motivation. I think I'm really worn out.

My new nick name: humpty dumpty. Fell on the escalator and slam my knee joint cos I tot I was still as agile as before, well apparently not. Hurt till I can't walk he had to carry me to doc. Had to stay at home for almost a week. Guess God feels that that's the only way to make me rest.

Anyway, just as I'm recovering, guess what? U got it, I fell down again within a week n yes it's on my knee again. ||| . that s when he start calling me humpty dumpty :p

Anyway enough of me whining, the doc medicine work enough for the swelling to go down but my leg ended up looking like that.



Anyway it did recover enough to get to comex I still can't climb up n down the stairs but can at least walk , n I zoom up grab come down n yes! Finally got the thing I ve been waiting for months! My canon camera!! Nope the stupid iPhone and the apps definitely can't match. It can't even match my previous beloved Sony camera Walkman phone. Now I got my s95 :)

Still not mind blowing pics that I ve taken bit it's mire the user issue than camera issue . Still im amazed by the amount of features they pack into a 'compact camera' wooo. And the diff modes does act make a damn difference lor, not like sone camera its only name sake.

Looks like I need to go for the product training by canon siah

back

Haven't got time to blog ... Looks like I can now that've a smart phone become smarter hee... Haven't got my life back but as what he said I should start blogging

Raffles Place

I'll miss the team in that project. i honestly like working with those people and nothing fake about it.

Officially my new chapter in life has started. New challenges new environment. New hates and loves. But thankfully i have the

same loving God who will see me through ups and downs - Perfect love drives out all fear.

Considering going back tkd.but checking out a MT studio near me.. so might see if that works out.. see if i can get back to my pole once in a while too. I need my life back.

drivers...

sometimes there are certain actions in some couples that really touch my heart. In a song by ronan keating it goes "you say it best, when you say nothing at all"

it's something i absolutely agree... saw a couple in church today, whether it is an exchange of look, or a simultaneous searching of each other's hands, it shows the "mo qi" between the couple.

Think Singapore has disgusting drivers. Question of the day, when you see the car in front filter in, what do you do? Speed up, flash your light and horn loudly at the car, speed in front and jam break in front. My god, disgusting manners. Think my P plate is an obstacle than a help. the number of ppl that is nice to me cos i'm P plate i can count with just one hand..

New project, new uncertainities. God .. help me.

back in action.. Hopefully

enjoying being back at Raffles Place.. near my gyms =) once work settle down probably go back tkd in August.. so looking forward to it..finally having my workout routine again.. love the feeling of sweating it out and going to the sauna after that.. the nice scent of sandalwood & the dim lights.. in the heart of town a moment of peace and tranquility.. to rest your mind or to talk to God. ..

Really want to draw nearer to God , think something good came out of the 40DOC after all.. sister talking about fasting is having an effect on me... and it's my mum who reminded me to pray about work..

Excited but yet worried..

mind seems to go blank quite a fair bit.. not sure why.

aye.. action items both at work and out of work seems to get longer and longer..

Week full of anxieties and worries

Starting a new project tomorrow.. alone from my co.. nervous.. feeling so alone.. existing project still so busy..

sigh..

Need to get my devo back on track. Maybe the 40DOC comes at a right time afterall.

STupid flu and cough refuse to go away.. this week i'm going ahead with my workout no matter what..

Week in rambles..

Had a great crabby dinner.. yum yum =)

and not too long ago had iris's birthday celebration.. i love my family dinners..=)

So happy for xb & Jingyi of their excellent news.. =) end of the year is going to be busy for our cell.. 2 weddings & 2 delivery of babies =)

Met sheri in the gym on sat.. and she went "what happened to you? Didn't see u around didn't see u on fb even" alamak.. think i really become hermit for a while with my work.. hope it gets better...

Saw my jc mates.. we might not meet all the time during the last 12 years.. but i enjoyed every moment we meet up.. awesome bunch of ppl.. TJ went USA 1 and half years n came back.. finally Alvin came back after his one and half years.. now chiu kwo's turn to go HK permanently.. sigh..



Hope don't need to work late this week before my holidays.. THailand here i come! 11th to 18th. okay not that i'm super keen on thailand.. i just want a vacation, with my awesome sisters. So anywhere around is fine..=)

and our 6 months anniversary.. still a short time. but it feels like not too long ago that we started... but enjoying every moment.. =)
first picture i upload of both of us together..

sundays..

it's the time of the night that i really hate.. SUNDAY NIght.. the night before the week starts.. should i start checking my mail and see what horror i get?

Seems you'll never get good news nowadays.. sooosooo tired... irritated..

happy finally i m better at my driving.. sigh..

TiMe management

Me working late n not finishing my work = poor time management ....

Sux

Such a terrible week, terrible weekend. Worst one I ve been , felt so used.

The only nice things that happen is my sis s birthday dinne n that he was waiting the night n rushed down to see me for 15 mins knowing im uber stressed n frustrated.

freak

CAN I FOR ONE SINGLE MOMENT WHEN I'M ON THE ROAD STOP GETTING HORNED, HIGH BEAMED OR LOSING MY WAY?>????

I'm such a hopeless no direction sense, lousy female driver.

Run350

Went for my 10km run this morning under the Run350 event and it was my first 10km.. okay granted .. i only run half the journey haha and walked with my colleague who sprain her hip and leg.. our time was an amazing 2 hours :p hehe. our other male colleagues who finished about 1hour... waited until they puke siah i think..

i still don't understand why ppl would pay to run in events like this.. hmm. waking up at 5am and k.o-ing the rest of the afternoon is quite a waste of time.. but though running in big groups together with absolutely no obligation is quite motivating actually and the scenery is of course SWEE.

never slept so hard before in the afternoon.. rare i have that chance.. been so busy working whole week and i even went back to work on sat late afternoon.. my other colleague was there too.. and i think my nights are gone for this week too. K.O until when my mum woke me up, i couldn't recall where i am. i realised too i can't sleep with aircon on.. couldn't sleep at all.. when i off it and llisten to the rhythmic sound of the fan spinning, i promptly fell asleep hard.... sigh. not meant to enjoy =p

Looking forward to the good friday holiday.. totally forgot about it until he reminded me..=) YES! now the week don't feel that bad afterall =)

week

too busy to post anything..finally has time to sit down...

a bit hard to accept that she is really gone. sometimes i think she is still in the nursing home, waiting there with a smile on a face. Most independent, strongest, futuristic, respectful elderly that I've ever known...

___________________________________

brain too saturated with work to think of too much..haven't gone training for a long time, miss it a lot. miss pole also...

finally could go workout with him.. afterall it 's what brought us together...

kena saboed =D =p heheheh

weekend..

keeping my fingers crossed for the weekend...

Anxious.. hope i didn't make the wrong decision. but happy and excited at the same time..

>>>>>>>>>>>>>

attended a cousin's wedding.. admittedly, the wedding is beautiful. Photo shoot with horses by what i believe is bali beach. usually the second march is okay, but they have the shot glass that has lights, and the whole place lights up like stars. nice..choice of gowns is excellent too.. very unusual, but bride is pretty so she can carry off. The one thing i love best, the wedding favours.. very practical useful wedding favours.. shot glasses and bag table hooks.. *love it*

"Hear our prayer, o lord god almighty come bless our land as we seek u worship u."

Was deeply affected as we sing this worship song this morn. Suddenly memories of the video clip of japan n middle east and ms flashed through my mind. Would the christians there still be able to worship still??

Pray also she ll pull through this time.

Pray I'll be able to pull through this period too, tricky n weary. Everything feels like a chore n feels really tiresome. I don't need another vacation . Just need to take a couple days leave sleep till whatever time I want. And after that go FF workout as long as I want. N wrap up the day just soaking in the presence of God, that's what I called a break.

So many artistes coming this quarter; eagles Eric clapton, slash, santana, far east movement, maroon 5. , avail lavigne and a throng of others that I can't remember. But I'm waiting for 2 particular artistes to come:

1. amazing George Michael
2. Funky jamiroquai

Meanwhile patience siah.....

Demoralised

Need reasons to convince myself why this is worth my time..

You change, ppl change, you move on, others move on.. Thank God for those that stayed with you along the years..

thank God for him who is always there with me, to comfort and cheer me when i'm down or out, or enjoy the moments with me when I'm happy.

Things I don't understand part 3

things i Still don't understand Part 3

1. I don't understand why do people give up their seats for kids (when they are a bundle of energy and don't feel like sitting) but don't give up to old folks (who don't have energy and wanna sit)

2. I don't understand why people in bendy bus dont' move in when there's also another exit at the back.

3. Why are fat ppl always viewed upon negatively?

4. Why do guys like it that girls can whine and talk in a girly fashion?

5. Don't understand why some girls would wear a big stupid flower on their head as head band..

Part 1 & 2:

Anyway, as you can see, it's either i'm too tired or too bo liao.

_____________________

Sat through a tender presentation my boss did today. He was really good, smooth and convincing, man i can never talk like that.

But i really like what was being presented, and i like the fact that the particular organisation really takes a serious view about having their implementation plans process driven. Projects like that gets me excited. To help organisation walk through the entire journey from zero awareness to a certain level of BPM maturity, to help tie in the IT and business in one single platform and language. Except the "have-to-convince-others pitch" part, I suddenly got reminded once again why I choose BPM as my career path.

josh groban and holidays

I know i've shared in FB this link.. but so good i need to talk about it here..
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-uIQp9Dqcrw

Discipline!

1st week of 2011 has passed n it has been a week of no discipline which is not good.

2011 would b a yr to grow closer to Him and illuminate my mind with His words. To recognize the fact that we r here on this earth to glorify God, and most important of all to make Him real in my life, but discipline to do wat I need to do.

Discipline also to stop eating so much aiyo rest enough n drink less so my stupid flu n chest wont acting up....discipline to get back Tkd training since my Std drop so much! 

New year yeah, time flies we r already 6 days into the year.

Happy to get back training, pray nose n chest will recover ASAP n nt hinder my training n workout. Kena punch on nose yest, bleed all over my hands , face n left a trail of blood on the floor n down my body. Huat ah! Auspicious start haha

Need to ramp up my forms n full range (drills at least)

Marry you

Heard this song that's by the title below. Supposed to be romantic and nice. But check out some of the lyrics, oh gosh..



Bruno mars: Marry you



It’s a beautiful night, I feel like doing something stupid.. I think I wanna marry you. (me: ..... speechless)

Nobody would know, let’s get married (Me: If I get married, why don’t let the world know? Is this an elope?)

If you wake up the next morning and you want to break up, that’s fine by me.. (Me:we are talking about marriage here dude, not a game.. )



What kind of lyrics is that??? What kind of values does the world has now?

BBQ at Treehouse

had a cell bbq at CSC's Treehouse, environment was excellent.. even though it was raining heavily.. but the bbq was sheltered, pity the pathway to the treehouse is not sheltered.. but i will definitely go back again.. maybe for family bbq.. :)

Picture of the place after dark.. when it was still raining..damn cool...



Was waiting for the guys to bring the food from the car.. the trees, forest, rain and water sound.. really hypnotic, surreal and peaceful really.. the rain was so heavy you can hear it very loudly from the video.
