Getting Something Started

It seems to be ages since ive actually written anything worth reading.. heh.. the past 1 yr was full of spice, not forgetting all the bittersweet memories.. some to be hold on to dearly.. while some are meant to let go..

Finally ive completed my teaching postgrad diploma.. it was not a breeze through experience.. who can forget the datelines.. files.. lesson plans after lesson plans.. assignments which seems never ending... BUT let's not forget the company that i had back in campus times.. my group of nyonya friends.. and a new found companion : mr king kong :-)

I couldnt possible penned down every single moment that took place.. but things somehow took a much different route than what i expect it to be..

let me see.. this year.. ive learn how to use the dreamweaver software.. flash.. (attended a 3 long day course.. & ironically.. i actually forget how to use it now.. hehe).. technincally more IT savvy..

ive better sense of direction in singapore that is.. (obviuosly its still quite minimal.. but i still get there.. by foot..) A whole strings of frenz' wedding invitations, especially during the dec month.. Finally belonging to a school for 3 years at least.. no longer shifting around.. new cousin-in-law.. and im becoming an aunty soon..

Time seems to be catching up pretty quickly without u realising it really..

i noe im not supposed to be so over zeolous about the new year and all.. new resolutions.. proposed changes to be made in the new year.. (wat a joke..coz most of the time.. it is still on the following year's resolution list..hehe..)

"What are your plans this year to get something started? What changes are you making in your life?"

Changes.. How many of us would really nugde out of that comfort zone to change for the better.. hmm.. tough question.. tough mission i tell u but it does no harm putting them in black n white.. so.. ive decided to have checklist.. of the things to be achieved.. may not necesarily be acheived by 2006.. (let's not get too tight up about it yeah..)

ok..here goes..

"Mission Impossible To Be Achieved"(hopefully..)

1. Learning how to cook.. (damn.. i just wonder how am i gona do this.. maybe i could do with some help from my dear gfs..)

2. Reduce procrastination (to eliminate it entirely would be too idealistic)

3. Get back to the mode of volunteerism.. (i miss doing all those visiting.. organising.. hopefully i will be assigned to the rotaract club cca.. so i can round up those kids to do some good..)

4. To be able to fit into my currect jeans.. (need some workout to maintain that..)

5. run 10 km standard chartered marathon.. (10 km will do.. let's not get too ambitious..)

6. Less mood swings.. less sulky.. less 'perangai macam siak' (throwing tantrums for nuthin) less stubborn.. hmm..

7. pass driving.. hmm.. i just wonder when..

8. travel to far away place (and no.. not K.L again.. but seriously dun mind going back to holiday inn batam.. hehe.. how bout bintan or redang ppl??)

9. reduce my calamari dengue (sotongness a.k.a selengerness) gotta work on dat man.. its catching up on me too frequently..

10. get back to my active and adventurous mode.. hmm.. shall consider climbing mount kinabalu wid azah.. need to get that blood and oxygen pumping..

11. more karaoke.. hahaha..

12. less shisha.. ahem ..hmm... tough.. let's make it once every 2 months.. amacam??

13. treasure and appreciate life more with my loved ones and my peeps...

14. save more, donate more, spend less.. hmm.. its all a matter of self-discipline.. sounds too noble.. (having the fact that it comes from me.. heh)

well.. i think ive got all down.. so.. now i shall start with no. 2.. reduce procrastination.. gotta get back to work.. haiz..

Self - Profiling..

Boredom has driven me to do the strings of dumb surveys.. so-called trying to learn more about myself.. but trust me most of them.. aren't that true.. im sure those who knows me well enuff would agree 1001% on it..


You are a Great Girlfriend
When it comes to your guy, you're very thoughtfulBut you also haven't stopped thinking of yourselfYou're the perfect blend of independent and caringYou're a total catch - make sure your guy knows it too!


well.. the part where i havent stopped thinking about myself .. let me add on the fact that ive got that egoistic streak in me too.. & that drives many people nuts.. Independent ..yap.. caring.. of coz.. (only to those whom i noe of coz.. so, unknowns may stay away..) Total catch..??? hmm... Let's just put it as average catch... hehe.. im not flawless u noe..

Your Scent is Pumpkin Pie
Warm, comforting, and a bit old fashionedYou've got what men want - believe it or not!



They called me old fashioned??? Wat??? I cant even stand the songs sang by my frens.. "hari ini kau datang jua.. " arghh.. its not that bad.. but its thsoe kind of songs where it sticks on your mind.. irritating i would say.. (btw, i miss karaoke.. im resorting to singing in front of my pc).. Most of the tym i may be blur .. but one thing for sure.. i dun like pumpkin.. cranberries smells good though..(btw.. its a picture of pumpkin which refuse to come out)

You Are a Carnation
You are down to earth and grounded. You tend to be more traditional than trendy.Your confidence gets you through anything.People trust you and are very loyal to you.



its funny coz i find carnations so "aunty- aunty" u noe.. prefer daisies.. white or orange daisies.. plus a little bit of baby's breath.. sweet.. but they've got the character description on target tho..

You are a Brainy Girl!
Whether you're an official student or a casual learner, you enjoy hitting the books.You know a little bit about everything, and you're always dying to know more.For a guy to win your heart, he's got to share some of your intellectual interests.A awesome book collection of his own doesn't hurt either!


hmm.. brainy huh.. weird.. coz i seems to forget where i place my brains most of the time.. heh.. books get me going .. thats for sure.. favourite hang out place - MPH, Borders, Kinokuniya, Times.. good books there.. currently im reading 'Physical Chemistry" textbook.. yah.. trying to complie notes before school reopens.. hehe..


Men See You As Understated
You are an intreguing mix of girl and woman.You're feminine, quiet, and a total mystery to most men.Yet they often feel the urge to protect you, even if they don't know you.You *are* a flirt, but you usually only flirt with those you know well


I dun flirt!!! do i ?? hmm... wrong person lah.. quiet ?? hahah... the best joke of all..
