My Shopping at HK
::Shop....ShOp::
Did a cluster to make it seems Abundant but in actual fact - Just a few items :(
I realise I bought 4 pairs of shoes and I simply love my GOLA pair of sneakers. Hope I got a good deal on that.
Ladies Street - Flooded with LV, Prada, Gucci, Christian Dior Fake goods (Can U tell the difference?) and Alot of Men's tee Shirts, Watches, Shades, bags - Common stuffs. LOoks like all the vendors made a pact or something.
Bargaining can go way down but all seem to lower at that point and That's it.
I am surprise many of them speak Chinese in Ladies' Street and This was not the case 4 yrs ago where I was a dumb gal beside my mum and she handle the finances.
Now It's my turn to be the one~ Yeah!
U will be surprise - The giordano, Bossini are much better quality (Material is so much more comfy) than Singapore. The clothes have something like NIke "Dri-Fit" where they target on work-out target market and man, they are cheap! HKD$100 for 3 pieces ***** Worth it :)*******
We went to FA YUEN Street - Happily I thought I could revive the shopping scene 4 years ago when My mum brought me to the Fashion Wholesale Market where clothes are DEADLY CHEAP. Sadly, They seem to vanish.
When I came back, My mum tell me it's call SHAM SHUI PO. :( All for the SUPERBLY CHEAP CLOTHES...
::Food...Foood::
3 Women - rather spend their money on Shopping thrift on food - ate by the street side: Big big Clams, Health-Booster Mango Puddings, Shrimps Wanton Noodle Like you have never tasted before in Singapore. Best thing like people always describe Teochew Ladies - CHEAP & GOOD!
I was juz disappointed it was only a 3 days thingie. We only drop by at Ladies' Street & A lit' of Nathan Road. NOT-NOT enough!
Most Expensive stuffs are from ESPIRIT - Better don't let me find the STUFFS in Singapore Espirit and even it does, It Better don't be the SAme price or the LOwer Price!
getting rid of Cognitive Dissonance *grins*
Love them, Hug them to sleep and of coz, wearing them till they tear and next?
Excuse to travel to HK again! - NExt, Next, Next Purchase Please?
Suddenly Thought $$$$$$$$ really not Enough. Nevermind, More to come *salivates*

Tests Gathered from Everywhere!
Quizzes to Hit On:
Test Yourself to find yourself. *LIKE REAL* Do it for Fun :P
You're just the happy go-lucky type. You might have your pet peeves, but other than that, you're mainly calm. Blending in with your surroundings, you're the type of person who everyone likes. Usually it's you who cracks jokes at social gatherings - after all, laughter is the best medicine. Sometimes you pretend to be stupid, but in all actuality, you could be the next Einstein.
The old blog only lasted for 5 days and it showed errors. Host server stated that it had received alot of "complaints" and have to be removed.
Sad. Nevertheless, My search for a new blogskin begins.
I really like this blogskin. It gave me a fiery yet autumn feeling. Lively yet tranquil. Same feeling with my heart affairs.
If you take note, I changed the tagboard because I prefer to stick with Chatterbox - Easy to Customize. Hope you guys can restart your lit' chats once again. I welcome you!
I am glad that many of you like the song to the blog. Many thanks to Chris Lo who introduced the song and the piano version to me. Alone, Nostalgic but yet serene - love this feeling and can't bear this feeling too long.
Sometimes being alone can make us realise many things we never knew isn't it?
The Past - Make the person you are today
The Present - A gift of today
The Future - In your hands
Added Component: Time
My Blessings:
To those who have found your love, Cherish him/her
To those who have not found your love, He/she may be the one beside you, near you.
To those who are waiting for someone, May your wait not in vain. May she/he learn to appreciate. May you learn to accept the truth in time to come.
To those who have lost their love, learn from past mistakes and if she/he come back, hold her/him and never let her/him go
I like 2 quotes from The Italian Job: "I trust everyone but only the devil inside" & "Find someone U love, Hold her tight and never let her go"
Going through another love Cycle,

Hurt from the past
Monday, June 21, 2004
Was having a lit' chat with Esther earlier on and from job interviews, how to handle job interviews' questions to remembering the past...
Hurt from the past by one guy. Not only one but two gals.
I must say, I am grateful to know a friend through this dreadful incident. Don't need to feel bad or guilty because of someone's else mistake. Our lives are not ruin but lessons to be learnt. I am glad both of us found our own lit' sunshines in life. Xin fu ma?
"Everything Happens for a reason"
from the beginning to the end, Fated to find her and allowing the truth to set her free but I fell deeper and only awaken at the later part - accepting the fact CAN FORGIVE BUT CANNOT FORGET
Esther, He did love you before. I guess temptations give the excuse to sidetrack away from promises and commitment. Feelings are stakes placed in. Risky. Once pour out and can never be taken back. Feelings can fade. How long can these take? I am sure what U have felt is feelings left from the past - accumulate from memories and the love you both once shared.
NO Praise No Blames. U felt cheated but I felt cheated too. It made me realise things are not that simple and guys can be complicated. changeable. U wish to forget the bad memories. To me, I don't wish to forget because how hard I try, I can't. Let it fade through time & I believe it's getting better.
U thought I got back together with him? I smile :) because I am happy its the either. Why everyone think I would get back with him? 3 yrs relationship mean something to me? Sure it does but that does not give me the reason to.
I don't wish to live in his shadows. Someone who don't give him his best. I want someone who can give him his best. Best of the best - truly from the heart.
Esther, U were wrong to say U were a passing cloud, an advertisement or a determinant to me and his relationship before. you were someone who made him realise his true self and made me realise the guy I've once loved.
"Love don't need necessity" U said
To me, If you love someone...U need her for the rest of ur life because U will nv let her go........ ever

My Buds' Outing
Sunday, June 20, 2004
Sat - A day for another friends' Gathering! It's always refreshing at the end of the week to meet up with the gals & guys.
It was kinda of fulfiling day for me. I got my 1st Mp3 Player - JNC i-Audio 4
As usual, got this cheap deal from Yahoo! Auctions and I SImply Love it!
Met up with the babes and hunks & we proceeded to Sakae Sushi for a Japanese food feast.
It was another burst of laughter happening at the corner of Sakae Sushi , distracting the food rambling inside.
FOod.. FooD...FoOD
Maybe a lit' enthusiaustic about being a great photographer and a great model. We started posing photos in the heart of cineplex leisure movies. *Pose* *Snap* Ermm..Not nice lehz! Erase! Take again..
Photography can be an art too. Actually I kinda of enjoy taking photos. Hope I can learn this in the Certificate in Visual COmmunications and to add on my wish list - A better Digital Camera when I have the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
What are cameras for? Expressions. Capture them. Memories to look back. I am sure when I look back at the past - Reminisce moment in time
Babes and hunks beauties and charm will fade through time so since we are young, active and cute, you got it! You flaunt it and this applies to everything.
(I know many people wanna PUKE now, my advice: GO TO THE TOILET, GET A PAIL If you are some old hag and U have problems about US being young, deal with it then.)
Dare to face the world. Be confident. Be outright but not despicable. Be beautiful.
Noone can give you the chance but yourself.
After which, we proceeded to watch "The Bet" and in the 2nd row. I was pretty excited to watch the movie only hoping everyone else will enjoy. Elaine - If you are reading this now, I hope U did. It was hilarious and Twisted story plot. thumbs up for a local production movie.
Let me introduce the flowers in the picture below:
1. Elaine aka Lainez
ONe of my other great Buddies from Poly - RSCEL. She is very charming and many guys have fallen into her love trap before. She has this oriental beauty that you will catch hold at first sight. (Ok! How much U are going to pay me for advertisement?)
Went through all the laughter, cries, sweat, shit with her during final year project and many many projects and competition. I do not wish to spout negative remarks about her because she will kill me the next time she sees me. YES.. SHE IS THAT POWERFUL, DUN BELITTLE HER.
2. Cindy aka Cincin
Needless to say, our DA JIE in RSCEL. RSCEL rox..ROx roX! she take cares of us and she is so motherly ( Motherhood at early age ) Full of energy and a Sporty Babe! ( Not forgetting the babe(S) - US :) Responsible and hardworking. WE work hard for it and here's what we are now - Living as Ladies. Her Laughter is infectious & merriment! I felt so blessed being cheerful naturally with her around.
SAD thing is Sorry guys, she's taken by our MR KAI.
3. MOI?
One word - WON-DER-FUL :D

I was drooling Inside...Hehe!
SO happy Manz! Today Mr Vincent Ng is having a good mood. These few days training the kids, we realise some days he will be down and don't wish to speak or smile.
It hurts me to see him this way. HAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!! *crapz*
Today he was smiling and seriously coaching the kids. his smile is so cute :)
Serene and myself keep 'bieoing'. lolx and we pluck the courage to ask to take a photograph with him and he was friendly enough to have a lit' chat with us. He gave us his personal Email Address and offer to recommend job to Serene.
we both 'HUH' and stared in disbelief for a lit' moment and did not take it seriously. He spoke to us for the 1st time and offer to recommend job? Maybe tomorrow we shall ask him SERIOUSLY.
Dear Liying & Eunice were very disappointed that she did not manage to take a photo with him. Dun worry, Tomorrow shall be and I will be snapping more photos.
hahaa...Can't believe he's 29 manz. Ooppsszz!

My way to Australia
OOppsss... that was a long blog with no discriminations I hope :)
With the rejection of SMU & NTU, I've decided to go for Australia Education in Perth City.
I mean it's fine..He wanna sponsor my education *ENUFF SAID*
You guys must be wondering why I chose to try for local universities with all the rantings previously?
Only one reason: I don't want to deplete my parents' financial. They are old and at retirement age and How am I going to bear to let them pay for my High education expenditures overseas?
Australia was definitely my alternative. My dream was to go US to study. I have an uncle in San Francisco but He's with bad terms with my family. *DAMN*
I have chosen Australia because CHEAP, got the course I want, Course Structure and Education system in between US and UK, Near to Singapore (Can fly back faster!), Learn to be independent, quiet surroundings and I like perth - Low standard of Living.
SO much for my lit' comments, I have decided to sign up for 3 Australian Universities because I love the courses:
University of Western Australia
Edith Cowan University
Murdoch University
I want to do Bachelor of Communications - Public Relations, Media Studies, Advertising, MAss Communication or Marketing & Media.
Went to Education Link Consultants with AH MAN DA to apply and gain a better insight of the Universities. I really hope we could go together but I will be happy for her if she get into SMU too :D I am not selfish ok!
I hope they will get back with as much as exemptions as possible! If I do get another job that I love, I might defer because no matter what I am still young ;)

So much for Education
I went to do my own lit' research on the courses and faculties. Life is rather contradicting. I am selling US Education and here I am going to Australia to study. My boss always claim to want to sponsor me but I don't like to owe people a living & bond of 3 yrs is seriously NO JOKE! I don't wish to be tied down and be in a job just for gratitude like my colleague slogging for the company for 8 yrs.
Degree is juz a Degree: A headstart. Seriously saying, 90% of employers don't even care how specialized your degree is as long as it's a "decent" Degree. Work experience is EVERYTHING. Believe it or not, jobs are everywhere but if you hold your nose too way up and carrying arrogance weigh with high expectations, you are going nowhere.
I went for a job interview the other day and met this NUS Business Grad. She's sure cream of the crop but she was complaining to me she can't find a job and now she have to laid back for a Diploma-required job. She lower herself down because reality bites.
I admired her but how many can actually do that?
I've learnt enough in area of Education. I've seen the successful people in industries and they are not from local universities but people who have GOOD ATTITUDE, YRS OF EXPERIENCE, Degrees sought through part-time. I always salute by telling them I really do admire their success.
I've heard enough advices. Singapore is into US education. That's for sure. Look at SMU Applications, Look at the elimination of 'O' Levels, Look at the world's leading economy, Look at what employers are seeking for. Liberal Arts are finally showing its worthiness in Singapore. Take note: I used FINALLY because Singapore is LAGGING. 10 yrs time, You will see a new incorporate Education system and You will know what I mean.
I wish, I wish, How I wish I could go Calfornia to study. Preferably: Florida State University, SUNY Buffalo, Calfornia State University. Way too expensive unless I do through distance learning - I lack the discipline and the SAT results as well. Too far from home, I will miss my family :(
I am not saying UK or Australia is not good enough. Sure, Australian graduates are everywhere, flooded, Abundant in Singapore. So much for the differentiation - Australia have placed themselves in a state of OVERBRANDING with too many Distance Learning programmes affiliated to Private/Commercial Schools.
They have placed themselves in a state of Marketing Dilemma - Anyone can obtain an Australian Degree as long as they have the financial capability. Shortening the duration, restructuring the course curriculum. It seems at anyone's fingertips now.
Where is the positioning in the market now? - MONEY TALK? or MARKET SHARE? -
In My point of view, UK education is very specialized but very rigid and lack flexibility. Not as in a bad way but for certain studies like law or journalism, UK is nonetheless the best choice. For Business, Communications, Psychology: Just no longer relevant in today's society. Employers want people who can think out of the box, multi-disciplinary, Multi-taskings, Multi-talents. Best people get the best jobs.
Been stuck in Singapore system for past 13 yrs, I had enough of memorising work. I had enough of boring lectures. I need something enlightening, something interesting, something I wanna explore & discover. Come on, GIVE IT TO ME! Shone it!

Gymmy Ger
Monday, June 14, 2004
I am SO refresh after one day's Hard day at the Gym.
Today, the instructor (Her name is Rue) commented I am PETITE. In case people who have not met me before, I am a small lit' girl. Just as I was typing this post out, check this out:
*Penny lanE arT Is Lovely Under Violet* says:
just like if i were to describe you ........ i'll call u the "Petite Sugar-Coated Fairy Princess" hahahahahahahaha
Should I thank you? Today was ultimate Workout for PETITE Ger ok! Dun play play! Small and powerful *shows muscles*
I entered the BODY BALANCE class and Oh my! Stretch here and there, trying to strike balance then The worse thing happen, My leg kick the person behind me. I turn behind to say sorry and she stare in disbelief at me. Am I in such a sorry state or what?
My whole body was aching and I can't follow the steps simultaneouly with everyone else ( I am a newbie ma) Then I dunno why I became so ambitious and went to take the next class of PRECISION CYCLING. It was HELL!!!!!! I wanted to escape but the dearest fit coach-tress keep telling to continue. She was keeping an eye on me! (Small Girl what..Vulnerable ok..)
"More resistance! 85 degrees! Come On Mates! Let's climb the mountain! Keep cycling. Great mates! You guys are doing great! Okie Pump it uP! More more resistance 95 degrees!"
There's nothing more tiring than this. 1 hr of torture but something kept me going on: ONE CUTE HUNK YANDAO CYCLING BESIDE ME!
It was great after the workout. Heating up in the steambath - Love the water droplets, Love the heat, Love the fog inside, Love the sweat, Love being alone there. Winding up in the heat. Sensation
Now peeps! U must be wondering what gym I went to? None other than Fitness First
Good service but very pricey! July will be my last month with them. I am still considering. Hey! If anyone wanna go in for a free trial, Let me know k? I can bring you in
I really like the advertisements in Fitness First by NikeWomen
I like some motivational quotes in the women toilet:
The Energy of After
Seriously. You could jump over that car.
You're jet-propelled.
You have a firecracker in your heart
You are a champion
You don't need anything. Food? Sleep? Never!
(Cue King Kong Chest-Pounding sound effect) -> Corny! haha
Coursing through you is a raging river after a thaw.
We have a winner!
You're electromagnetic.
You are Nikebeautiful.
These are one of the few and each toilet have a different one. Cool eh!
Seeing all these quotes make me REFRESH, STRONG, BRAVE etc etc. Blah blah blah...
I don't want U to disappear from this Blog.

Hey! Not that noone call me go out ok.. It's just that ME don't feel like making the effort to wear something nice, beautify oneself to be presentable and to go out in that hot sun and think about how miserable that I have to go window shopping with the temptations to spend money. MOney Hard to Earn! Must Save! *stingy Miser*
Suddenly, I receive a surprise call from someone. I was Harsh, cold and E.V.I.L I told that someone I don't wish to see that someone. I slammed the phone down. Nevertheless that person is very persistent! This time round that person wanna pass something to me and will be reaching in 2 min time.
I panic.

Cheap as it may be but I can feel it and He knows I am really happy and touched. Arghh! Cannot be soft-hearted, Cannot let him know my soft spot!
Soooo what's the thing so special? Look below and U will know...

Friday, June 11, 2004
Juz to update dear friends,
I have been working from 7 - 18 June 2004 in Mediacorp for "Showbiz Wonderland" 星光奇幻三日营”
Thanks to Danny's recommendation for the job [:)]
My job scope was to take care of the kids 6 - 8yrs old and 9 - 12yrs old. It was lotsa Hell & Chaos! The 33 little rascals can simply drive 2 facilitators who have ultimate patience to the roof. Lucky WE survive *sweat*
It was great fun with the kids. Their innocence, their gags, their energy and stamina... I feel myself so old now. They attend classes like Hip Hop, Wushu, Makeup and special Effects, Speech & Drama, Singing and here comes the COOL Part:
Together with Vincent Ng in Wushu! HOHOHOHOHOHOHO Not that he's That great but the fact is he's FIT! drooling at those muscles AwWwWwwWWwWWWwWW
He looks better in person and he was unfriendly at first but soon he can't resist the charms of the facilitators (Ooppss..I mean the Kids :P)
Kids are still kids but U noe What? Kids of today are very much different from Kids of yesterday. They are spoiled brats and some are deprived. Some are so hyperactive that it will sting them to even sit down for a while...Goodness Gracious. My voice is never the same again
Okie ONe week Past and I miss 3 kids in my mind: Hannah, Roxanne & Shandric. They melt my heart and hopefully I could see them again.
Geeezzz..Am I falling in love with KIDS? [LOL]

Gotta Start on something FRESH
Here I am... BLOGGING my 1st blog
Had a few blogs before in diaryland, tried whipping up a website in geocities before and some of the others I can't even recall the host moreover the user name =|
I am just wondering... Why are so many people engaging in Bloggin nowadays?
Seriously, It will be a diary, explicit outright of true feelings: inner and outer
Maybe secrets that are left discovered and time to release out to my dearie friends, acquaintances and people whom I want to let them comprehend.
I have never ever had the determination to maintain my BLOG. Pure laziness. Feeling bizarre to share my diary online. EXPOSED!
At the end of the day, People whom I noe, do not noe start quering about what I have got to say, How I feel, My Life's going through and Future expectations.
Do I really bother to announce to YOu peeps?
Sounds goofy but I guessed through a blog, I can get to sort out my thoughts, My goals, what lies beneath this cheerful face of mine and perphaps gain a better understanding of myself & connection to my purpose and aims.
Here goes and YEs! I am going to do it................ with No out of doubt =D
